9:02 pm
nuclear program and syria were certainly taj president obama spoke about that earlier this morning that basically the g eight countries are pretty much united on most of those issues but this the euro crisis really did overshadow the summit some might even criticize it took away from some other issues perhaps of course that million dollar question will greece leave the euro zone now although in the communique we're going to hear about this united effort that's going to continue to try to make sure that doesn't happen there's not a lot of guessing going on behind closed doors we heard very frank conversations and also perhaps a lot more fear from these leaders that we see of course publicly this monster of we have to keep greece in the euro zone that behind closed doors it could be a much different story but again coming out of this camp david summit well once again hearing from leaders that they're going to do all they can to try to make sure that they don't exit the euro zone of course experts say that that's almost
9:03 pm
impossible at this point the russian economy is ok at present the old one hundred dollars a barrel so therefore russia feels in a strong position so president putin couldn't really contribute anything. you could say right you have to solve your debt problem germany perhaps shouldn't extend to other members of the european union and so on but. most of the discussions would be economic. interests of the european union and also president obama because obama has realized that if there's a you do fall out in europe he will affect his chances in america it will affect the u.s. economy skipping the g. eight summit has been really a big piece of focus for the media mostly most of the politicians here seem to not be very offended by it they know he's coming to the g twenty really a lot of the experts that we've been spoken to a look at it quite logically it was pretty predictable that the euro crisis was.
9:04 pm
going to overtake this summit that's something that's not of grave concern to russia yes of course russia wants to help they want to be part of discussions but it's not something that russia sees that was as one of its most pressing issues that it should have to come out and deal with at a summit like this. as the struggling u.s. dominates the global elite plans for a better currency than the euro according to international consultant and author. well it's a two edged sword of the market these so to speak because in a way it's good greece pulls out of the euro it would be a blessing in the way that a crisis affecting the euro would have gone away with the disappearance but at the same time as a precedent it would be terrible because of greece were to resolve its problems by reverting back to its sovereign currency which i think they should then other countries will be tempted to do the same if you look at the very big picture what we are seeing is the gradual and perhaps controlled demise of the us dollar
9:05 pm
hyperinflation which will eventually have to face up with end of the euro through a fracture or a splitting up of the europe i think we have to look at what the global power elites embedded inside america in europe and the u.k. have as far as a we placement global currency is concerned but i think that in the next couple of years that's where we are just biding their time to do it at the time they will be best for the bankers and definitely it will be best for the peoples of all these countries. that's what turns a thousands of protesters in the middle east are calling union clans it comes after saudi arabia says it all starts form an alliance with bahrain paving the way for any new style integration independent political and is done glazebrook explains why have things to bahraini government to soaking the plan. bahrain's government is enthusiastic for the very reason that the bahraini people are an enthusiastic because it's going to legitimize and systematize the saudi involvement in crushing
9:06 pm
the bahraini revolution drowning the bahraini revolution in in blood seventy percent of the population are sheer and increasingly actually systematically excluded from any positions of influence power effectively disenfranchised always have been in this regime and you know we have to ask why what's in it for saudi arabia and i answered that is crucial to remember saudi arabia doesn't have an independent foreign policy never has done its foreign policy like those of the other gulf states is formulated in washington and london so we really have to ask why the colonial powers britain france and of course now the u.s. why are they pursuing this course and i think we have to understand this in terms of the preparations which are been underway for several years now for an aerial strike against iran which is still on the on the table the crushing of the bahraini resistance is crucial to the war plans against iran because it was the biggest deterrent to an attack on iran is of course the fear amongst the west at least in
9:07 pm
israel that actually the sheer population in other countries will rise up. and start to resist that attack on iran so actually what's the crushing of the bahraini revolution is all to do with trying to preemptively destroy any potential resistance to the coming attack on iran. some twenty thousand people gathered in germany's banking capital frankfurt as the country's banking movement block you by went into its fourth day standing in a battle line since early morning on saturday thousands of police officers in bulletproof that entrenched themselves around the city was marching this is frank. oh these protesters have taken to the streets of frankfurt to voice their displeasure at what they see as unfair all sturdy measures that are being imposed on the eurozone at the moment now right now among these people as they march

9:09 pm
a very peaceful protest movement but despite that on friday around four hundred people would detained by very heavily equipped police offices that have been with century blocking off the whole of central front first the movement itself has called themselves lucky pipe instead of occupy is they attempted to block people from reaching the banking sectors or the banking services of europe's largest banking center in frankfurt this is the real hub of not just german banking but of european banking in general and as i say they had quarters of the european central bank located here and whoremongers also that the press has described some of the police tactics she saw that with his son's car while the young. here is this. move people over not allowed any anymore to enter the in their city yet this is something that this completely new in this country that not only remembers
9:10 pm
police can be seen around the demonstrators but also that that individual people are picked out names that are listed before. the manifestation starts they are not allowed anymore to and that the city and this is going down business sort of your version of democratic rights what happened is that they controlled that group a discreet and then they controlled everybody and to individual people they said. we want to see your passport so then by controlling. their database and said no you are not allowed to enter just square because we suppose you will do something illegal. when grief is uniting israelis and palestinians who've lost their loved ones to the long lasting conflict between them it's a unique gathering of suffering parents who want to increase understanding and bring peace closer but their goal is old but out of reach as often is point to snap reports. it was the head of the day my son must q it was
