welcome back you're watching our team here is a look at the top stories iran's exclusion from the upcoming international meeting on syria casts doubt over the impact of a gathering which aims to find a way to and the country's bloodshed russia has insisted on the participation of tehran a key player in the region notion firmly rejected by washington. allies turning into anime's three out of four of pakistanis now think of the us and they are felt anger has grown dramatically over civilian deaths from american drone attacks on the thousands killed insurgency triggered by the u.s. led war in afghanistan. and disagreements between e.u.

leaders play the blog summit even before it starts with germany angrily rejecting the idea of debt sharing the move crushing the hopes of spain and italy two of the country's worst hit by the crisis. now for more insight on the e.u.'s mounting debts woes r t talk to peter martin's father and head of the workers' party of belgium his interview is coming right up. today we're joined by peter merton c is a belgian politician of the worker's party and he's also the author of a book called how dare they which focuses on the european crisis and he tries to dissect and find alternative reasons behind what's going on in europe thanks very much mr martin's for joining us today for course the obvious question is the title of your book is how they are thinking who is they who are you referring to after the crisis of two thousand and eight. we. asked ourselves.

what is the change finally after describes because i remember in two thousand and eight there were lots of the colorations of for example sarkozy was also obama all the political leaders that said the financial sector and the financial capitalism we're going to take really radical measures to change that and i wanted to see for yourself these declarations what these things and i think basically in the financial level various noting changed. and if there is something changed on the contrary those who are responsible for the crisis of two thousand and eight have had have received more power and more and even more financial resources so the most important figure i think of the book is the story of the.

swiss investment bank that says that one hundred percent of adult population. in the world little. more than thirty eight percent of all the belts on earth so if i understand correctly from your answer. firstly what the leaders obama sarkozy or the bankers or the elite who are you grouping them all together in that block some open question. but in each case there is little else in europe and in the united states that is composed. of industrial capitalists ceo's of. enterprises of bankers and also of some politician it's a circle the system upper class from people that know each other well received a banking system in trouble again we have austrian banks in trouble even german banks that are supposedly safer. is in big trouble now if the problems keep

persisting despite the solutions leaders have offered in the past does that mean fundamentally the problem the root of the problem has not been solved i think the root of the problem is in the productive sector because there are a lot of forces that are telling that it's only a problem problem of the financial sector but in my vision you have this problem of overcapacity in the production that is present. today like the automobile factories and so traditionally what. economy do to resolve this problem that there is more capacity from production their capacity of course i'm sure they get close to to get to restrict relations and so on and so on to demolish productivity capacity but neoliberal was also another way to tackle the crisis and this way was to create artificial consumption and they

did it by reducing taxes for the richest people in the united states afterwards in germany and everywhere in europe they did it to give to middle class credit cards. three four five credit cards the system existed to enlarge it to artificial consumption and they did finally to also give to people. predatory loaning loans to sell them houses they knew very good that these people never could. pay them back and the problem of the banking in the banking crisis of two thousand and eight was that. small banks disappeared the bigger banks state and we have this problem that's called the failed syndrome it is this too big to fail reasoning that's holding everybody hostage the economies of europe hostage and even holding politicians in their heads now at what point will this reasoning be not enough

anymore you can't anymore say it's simply too big to fail so in order to change things i think there will be a need to question from from from the from from the basic we need popular movements are we we are going to in my opinion two or you will produce a very large number of social conflicts we're seeing it already beginning of the beginning of the spring of the peoples and we're going to need it so it's true we're seeing a lot of social upheavals now across europe are you saying that only when these social upheavals reach critical mass will there be any change at all that this has got to happen for europe is of course importance of three possible ways and there is the one way and this raised. from frank food from and from berlin this is a more authoritarian europe and they want to save the euro by a target measure by taking national survey ninety overnights to the

european level by mixing in matters of salaries for example of counties of the pensions of translucent. across importance in my view is that europe will separate again and that we have. two three or four europe's. strong states. the. one hand middle states like france belgium and luxembourg on the other hand and the so-called states but it's nationalism again and you really have a conflict in europe and then there is a tertiary in my opinion that is the rate that if the people's movements or are strong and if they find political translation it's will be possible to go to. something like a socialist europe or europe of so you better t. of corporation or banking system it's probably to our energy system it's probably

better is democracy and one of the countries of course at this crossroads having to make a choice is greece you talked in your book about a lot of the myths surrounding greece why do you think it's the misrepresent that if you have the official figures everyone can have them up and everyone can see that. the. greek people are working. more than two thousand and one dollar a year and that is for example more than six six hundred i would say year more than that in germany more than five hundred dollars a year more than in belgium so dismissive of the lazy greeks it doesn't exist and so i was asking myself why why are they telling search teams on mainstream media. in germany in. belgium and i think it's very easy

to understand because the. establishment who has the most. profits from this story since ten years that is the german establishment and the dutch establishment and so in creating this false conception of the greek people you can say but no it's no it's not a problem of economy it's not a problem of the eurozone it is a problem of lazy greeks what about. the euro project some would argue that the question of whether or not the euro is needed to pursue a united europe is a moot question the fact that it's what it was chosen as a single currency years ago means that the decision has been made and there's no turning back do you agree with this so you have europe. organisation called table the european around table of industrialists and they are. beyond the scenes really of most powerful organization who has pushed this concept of one of euro.

since the end of the eighty's in politics and so from the beginning all. european monetary union was conceived as a concept to create a big competitive europe that could compete competes with your united states needs etc etc and they knew very well that at the beginning of the euro there were large inequalities in europe so they knew it in this it would snow another problem we create a system. called the jones. and that was a treaty of mastic the norms of maastricht and they said no we're going to level up all the counties to prepare two thousand and two into the introduction of the euro and now we are ten years later and we see that the inequalities in europe. were level to go but this euro created more inequalities than ever in the last

fifty years and europe and of course the country in focus right now with spain again we're seeing the same solution being prescribed assets prescribed to greece and ireland i think really that the financial sector in all of europe should be transformed tyrannically in that we need the public sector in friends in all over europe because now they can be allowed spain into. but it's all a very short term measure of that structurally it isn't changing a lot and i hope they will help as a short term but you need also measures at the long term in europe and so i stay and see it once stupidity what is stupidity stupidities do something twice again and think there will be another results because they said it will solve the crisis in greece now it's for five years greece is in recession it's becoming much worse and much worse and now they're going to take the same program

to spain in the expecting magically another result and just briefly talked about socialism two point zero when your book what exactly does that mean by doing to this computer system has to change seriously and i think we are going to need to again socialist system where. there is a large public sector and british role in a system also is a democratic control and i think that for all those sectors that are big to feel for humanity like the banking sector like energy sectors if it is too big to feel for the future of humanity in the world you need to have a public control and there are two sources sources they say in belgium for worlds and the father of the world it's working force people are working on thinking and creating things that the father of the world and then you as

a mother of the world and they say this nature. and this capitalist system has a problem with. this all for your father and his own mother they are exploiting the workforce and they are exploiting nature and socialism two point zero my view is a system that is not exploiting its mother and father but it's a respecting workforce and she respects and peter. martin thanks very much for your time and my pleasure. excuse me can i speak with you sir let me finish please my son died in a gun don't agree you don't agree we don't want to look for him my son isn't this is marina i don't know would it be our greatest tragedy for you fair to. be. sure in your country. if the countries of yours.

led war in afghanistan. for snacks well you know well you know you know i don't have a crystal ball and of course you know i don't like to boast but i didn't think that spain germany euro two thousand and twelve file weeks ago certainly did i can confirm that as well but i tell you what you might have something to say about that particular prediction tonight more in the coming up in just a sick. thanks for joining us this is war today there is indeed plenty ahead including all this. travel thinking spain moved to within a game of a storage third straight major championship title done in portugal on penalties in the euro two thousand and twelve semifinals. continental quest germany and italy prepared to go head to head in the second last for a clash at the european championships later on thursday. dane

paying to mere apush x. stones the seven seated car line was an iraqi on day three wimbledon. it wasn't pretty but spain won't mind too much the reigning world and european champions qualifying for sunday's euro two thousand and twelve final after a long night in donetsk stayed up late to send us this report. it was a very forgettable first ninety minutes with a defensive display from both sides who flooded the midfield but neither could find any penetration in attack in fact there were more bookings than there were shots on target for in fact andres iniesta were the only one for spain and christiane or another with a couple for portugal and in the last minutes the captain got the chance to win it the ball to go a free kick to spain it brought down the ball fell to realm relish and he found asleep on the left hand side but now they could only blast over the bar well that meant it went to extra time and that seemed to spur spain into life in the aston

substitute tasers now as they drew too close range shots from rupert but they couldn't make the breakthrough so we went to a penalty shoot out both sides missed their first shots and then when it came to st two to spain danielle they had to score for portugal but he missed and says fabregas stepped up he hit the post but the ball still went in to make it forty to spain they go through to the final on july the first in kiev at the olympic arena and they have take on the nine hundred sixty eight winners italy all three time when there's germany. partridge internet there are now joining spain in the final as kate said will either be germany or italy in the second semifinal valve is tonight in warsaw the italians will be seeking to continue their own expected run while the germans must make history of their to reach the final two richard run porfiry caught up with fans from both sides of the divide. many it's really a true clash of the titans. these two countries to establish themselves as powerhouses of european football over the last seventy years germany have looked

imperious so far in this tournament played for one for their supporters would have preferred a semi final clash against england but instead they will have to pick their wits against an italian side who have never managed to beat at a major tournament was a little bit of course and a lot of my friends saying so we are not able to breach the ws but for me it's clear this time it's it's the exception that's going to govern the route. no one gave it much hope before this tournament started they were humble three nil by rusher and the only warm up game was some of the players were caught up in yet another corruption scandal on the eve of euro two thousand and twelve. in the first part in first turn easily was not so good that i'm out we play like that we make people think that we are not so good and then when we do at the end you show us so the last match against england was perfect yeah we decided to win because we played very well germany

a well known for their forward thinking and efficiency and the zero's a sunny no exception that even created a mobile foreign embassy to help out those supporters who are in need of assistance these have been in existence since the world cup in italy in one nine hundred ninety s. and the mobile embassy receives funding from the german football boom and provide a vital service to our fans but we started our website seven months ago we are producing two every day every match we are producing a frenzy and we have a fan guide we have a helpline where fans can contact us twenty four hours in case they have any problems also was reasonably quiet the day before the match the vast majority of sports is yet to arrive in the polish capital however expect a fantastic atmosphere on thursday as two of the biggest powerhouses of world football will colons for. the euro two thousand and twelve final. version of the euro two thousand and twelve championships are coming to an end in poland the last games played in the country taking place on thursday at the was on national stadium

just behind me well overall the tournament has been very well received by the locals on the holds visiting fans and everyone will be hoping for a classic encounter weekly take on germany. d'arcy. big big night ahead there over to tennis where day three of the building was suspended for a time because of rain but then again what is new of course in london but there was still enough time for a third seed roger federer to finish his match and took a place in the third stage six time champion federer always in control against the tally and fabio fognini winning at six one six three six two after the match the fed express give this is testament of his approach. to training hard to be quite honest obviously it's hard to get into the match when you're down and i was serving well that. you know you're going to get many chances throughout the movie against me when i'm serving. it was most obvious it's frustrating.

russian meal interest on the day center on mikhail youzhny an eager ondrea of the twenty six seed usually easing into the next stage with a straight sets win over a go see event is but compared to. denise system in his victory well late in the day reigning champion novak joke which kept on track with a three said win over american ryan horace's. a big shock in the women's side of action meanwhile in london seven seed caroline wozniacki crushing out in the first round of a grand slam for just the second ever time austrian open convert to mere apush czech losing the first set against the danes but not her mental resolve the twenty one year old battling back from the brink in the second before finally settling into a rhythm in the third five seven seven five six four how it ended up being three top ten opponents in as many matches. no similar nasty surprises for kim clijsters with the belgian too good for under. twenty one year old having just ten on course

there are all much compared to her if dean winners in the straight sets six three six three the final score dearest from rio up next. the russian herself showing little rust in a comeback from a shoulder injury which worst are to miss the french open the twenty seven year old beating sylvia soulé espinosa in the three welcome patrick reoccur olenka saw fluor days dominguez lino to also advance into the third round. with just under a month to go before the start of the olympic games london mayor boris johnson says the city is ready to welcome the world johnson was speaking as the iconic image of the games the five rings were lowered from the capitals equally as iconic tower bridge the games which start on the twenty seventh of july will be the first in london since one hundred forty eight over ten thousand are cleats and millions of spectators are expected to descend on the english capital. in

the the in. the city has ever been at this stage in the olympic president probably better that the international olympic committee would say well amazing job the delivery authority. in getting london ready and that's a big big give taishan from us to the world it's and here we are folks who are ready come to london paris never boring is it finally back to football where a major sports manufacturer has headed that scheme and that discovering talent that may have been missed first time around unfortunately our very own robert downey and he's a little too old but there's a whole lot more he fit the bill perfectly here in russia. they love the game they have the skills and have been dreaming of becoming football stars here is there

a shot at all the talk. of the night jones' program seeking gifted players from all over the globe from sixteen to twenty years old and strictly without professional contracts the russian selection saw dozens of contenders exploited and assessed by professional coaches at the hall when you margaret look at this he did all the hard work and failed to score he looks great but i want to make sure he's got what it takes to finish the nineteen ninety three russian cup winner killed and t.v. commentator on day to life and he's call it face the hard task on sunday selecting only for a lucky ones who represent the country in the finals in barcelona among the magnificent one hundred nature all born talents from pole over the world fighting for their dreams to come true file price is sixteen out of one hundred ten global participants will go on the global for the football tour to best's nike seems like

a bengals like manchester you had it set traps for ever even if they aren't their future looks promising for the other but school i presume that some of these guys most likely those four who will be chosen today will be able to start playing in the russian premier league or the first division in a couple of years so if you're curious you can follow the winners careers and see if i'm right and here they are. give you a minute good luck and legs locksmith are not the ones who made it to the finals but maybe still at the very beginning of a long and glorious way. you can always see if a player is really good even when he fails you see the house the skills it is the way he acts that really matters and any of these people have the potential to play a professional level. robert unknown r.t. moscow. if they manage to be half as good as mr to call off their they'll be doing very well that is all your sport fly weather is next.
