a rise in political extremes that were once kept at the fringes some argue that national debates on the issue remain insufficient that simmering social tensions are testing the limits of tolerance in europe yet despite the obvious threat of a deepening standoff between europeans and immigrants others say europe's tendency to walk on eggshells in the name of political correctness makes any real and honest debate all but impossible when you have the riots in. with integration of you missed and everyone trying to find some excuse. but condition of life and if we don't send a clear message to everyone far right. muslim. youth become impossible taught understand the place and is brave extract oil may have reached a conclusion but europe still nowhere near to ending at all to whether the cycle of
6:05 am
fear and hatred. does or cilia r.t. brussels. no advantage to an international consultant and former deputy speaker for the belgian parliament police multiculturalism never worked in europe in the first place there is more and more radical opinion giving voice to far right views. i think largely of cause there if we can all deny there are problems with immigrants they are already being forced to integrate and it's the problem that this process of integration is not functioning that it is a basic problem but the thing is first of all multiculturalism first of all has always been in this i mean something that was used in a political context and secondly i do not believe that this was a key policy of the european union european union is an economic projects and that is that was the key policy what is the big what is the real problem in society i do

. friday sees the greek prime minister mr some modest begin a charm offensive against europe's big two he's here in berlin for talks with angle of merkel before later flying off for a meeting on saturday with air france war land in paris now he's going to hope that he can try and get extra time for greece to be able to make the cuts that they they have to make in order for them to receive the next round of bailout money and we're talking about thirty billion euros worth of bailout money they're actually over thirty billion euros so certainly no small feat both merkel and land have well differing approaches to how to tackle the problems that are ongoing in greece at the moment i'm glad merkel wants to see cuts and the timetable of cuts it here to stringently where is francois hollande from france seems a little bit more willing to bend and to give a little bit of leeway because the reality is if greece isn't given extra time then they're going to have to cut even deeper and it's those deeper cuts that are just

here with our team into the un's nuclear vani has renewed talks with iran over access to the country's atomic facilities after previous discussions failed back in june tougher on insists its nuclear program is exclusively peaceful but some world powers suspected of pursuing atomic arms editor and journalist james corbett doubts the talks will bear fruit unfortunately the i.a.e.a. has been exposed during this entire iranian dispute as as did little more than a gang of thugs rather than a bureaucratic agency that's trying to neutrally arbitrate this dispute and really what it demonstrates is that the nuclear powers that that currently exist are are really trying to enforce a monopoly on nuclear power and to dictating what countries can or cannot have access to that so that they're attempting to to hold the iranian government which is a signatory to the nuclear nonproliferation treaty to higher standards than other members
6:11 am
of the i.e.e.e. who are currently using nuclear power and of course one of the biggest detractors of iran in the iranian nuclear program is israel which itself is not a signatory to the nuclear non. a liberation treaty and has hundreds of nuclear weapons itself which has never been publicly officially disclosed so there is there's a lot going on under the surface here but it just goes to show that unfortunately be i.e. a decision has already been made before its report has even been finalized iran is currently straining under crippling western sanctions imposed in connection with its nuclear program but the ordinary iranians deprived of their living the sasa these are bearing the brunt first off sets political commentator homemade reza. i wonder why do you any government is not taking the united states international courts because of that because the sanctions that the united states has imposed on iran are genocidal sanctions they're killing people the killing civilians are

people's man that's all shall is coming your way at twelve thirty g.m.t. but here sneak peek. we have a wealthy person who is paying thirteen percent or about thirteen percent in federal taxes most middle class americans are paying twenty five percent or so that's class warfare to point out though they're saying the point it took two days to dare to point that out and say that that's a problem is class war now there is you know what i someone who spent his formative years in britain the young communist league i was grinning because this idea that this is a class of all. of them laughable class warfare is about who has power in the society and altering the taxation level and seeing who can get the better accountant has nothing to do with fundamentally changing the way people live without the romeos and a lot of money is largely irrelevant at work obama is surrounded by multimillionaires by billionaires george soros has more money than god for goodness sake mainstream media which is losing wealth is largely about behind the democrats so i think that that is

6:16 am
a political pawn. purely a political marker of. the american. government repeatedly. it still has not been clear or indicated by any u.s. officials how they believe they have the legal right to extradite victor boot a russian citizen from thailand to the u.s. which is one of many reasons why russia is saying that this is a russian citizen and is asking for him to be extradited to russia to serve out his twenty five year sentence that was delivered by a u.s. court. turn our attention now to join us anjan ecuador is standing by its decision to grant asylum to assad for an end definite period ignoring the threats by britain to storm it out of assam london in an interview to r.t. spanish channel president rafael correia said his country's calls as united south

used to seem very different people it will learn how to accept everybody that's what syria needs both sides need to stop killing and start talking to some in the west it may come across as ignorance and disregard for those who are suffering but it's actually the opposite the syrians always valued the beauty of the simple life and the room give it up easily at gunpoint. not. at any rate because. we are killing you right now but yet so. maybe maybe you know the. money. that's now crossed to libya a country that is seen as an example of what may happen to syria the fighting there continues. ethnic clashes in the center of the country have reportedly left at least twelve people killed and dozens injured
