news from russia and around the world this is our see with me thanks for joining us it's more bank bailouts and regional rescue the ailing eurozone struggles with a lot of growth and let's sit down between leaders have so far failed to bring about any prospect for change tuesday will see greece and portugal under scrutiny from their creditors as france and italy continue attempts to dig their way out of trouble meanwhile is the european public bearing the brunt of the crisis another of spain's reduced under lucien has run out of money and central government will help while paris is forced to bail out one of its banking groups with no buy in sight and with one eye on the trample of their neighbors bulgaria has put it here and bush is on hold on to reports now on the e.u.'s poorest members change of heart. will get area is posing the latest blow to the embattled currency you know it has put on hold its long held plans are joining the euro bloc an interesting we
12:02 am
bulgaria in contrast to a lot of bigger economies has managed to reduce its budget deficit to two point one percent of its g.d.p. and that is safely within the three percent rule set. by the e.u. a number consistently met mentioned by german chancellor angela merkel but now that they've actually qualified all the rules they want to put this on hold of the prime minister of bulgaria as well as the finance minister had both said that there are two main reasons for this one is the increasing of vulnerability and uncertainty of the future of the euro in the bloc it's clear it's been going on for a couple of years now and also the deteriorating economic conditions are still the clear way out of the crisis and secondly and i think importantly for the leaders of that country is the changing of public opinion in bulgaria people there asking the very same questions that the citizens of credit euro zone countries are asking who else are going to be allowed and for bulgaria's point of view who are we going to bail out once we join the euro and also the country has been through three years
12:03 am
already of hysteria measures cuts in pensions and wages and you know for the last year especially the turmoil stared is almost a key word when discussing the eurozone or the euro and now bulgaria is not the only country it's just the latest in the string of countries lithuania last week the prime minister has said that it will only join the euro when quote unquote europe was ready and of course that is at this point very unclear when the state will be coming and also latvia has lost a boozy as it's changed its tone in terms of looking at the process of joining you be a euro now what this all underlies it goes back to the same point the vulnerabilities the weaknesses that we see in the euro and from the outsider's point of view this is what they see they see contras in trouble needing bailouts and you have creditor countries imposed on the people and you have angry and desperate citizens of those countries and with that kind of a picture it's not entirely surprising that bulgaria made that decision. and
12:04 am
hollande green added to popular economics still comb believes the euro is overpriced and keeping its own currency is the only thing allowing ball guarantees so that's good. i think they've already done their three years there they're their prison term if you call it off for austerity they've been cutting back for three years that's why they got their deficit down at the same time because they're not yet in the euro they have a very cheap currency and that is enable them to keep their exports up the real problem of the euro right now is it's overvalued and countries like greece can export their way out of this because the euro is much too high it's one point two of the dollar whatever it is today it should be down to a one to one parity with the dollar and only then will the eurozone begin to recover because then their products will be cheaper and i think well gary it's worry is that because they are such a small economy you their economy goes down again for whatever reason and the next couple years they could be out on the limb with greece so i think it's more the
12:05 am
size of their country that worries them after three years of austerity they probably wanted guarantees that. this could happen to them what happened in greece and maybe is happening in portugal we choose war austerity when they don't we don't need austerity in europe or in this country or in any country right now with the euro the eurozone particularly in a recession. and across the atlantic income into financial trouble is pushing people towards a tough choice and coming up they say help french speaking quite back i think raising the leading to all of the breaking away of the problem as i said to alexis got an. old saying not a tough choice when look at they lecture prices in the u.s. at the democratic convention is taking all. that later but now the u.s. has reportedly taken further in direct action against iran to delay a possible israeli strike against the country saying it will no box tuck washington
12:06 am
could be under pressure from israel to declare certain redlines of the terrazzo nuclear program well she's point to now reports. for some time now there have been indications that television might be considering a strike on terror around and that such a strike could be imminent what we're hearing now are rumblings from the american administration that it is putting all steps on the table that it is employing all steps short of war to try and prevent the israelis from going this route at the same time it is also trying to force to iran to take negotiations more seriously and these are negotiations over its nuclear program that until now have stalled we are hearing from high ranking and named american officials that the united states and twenty five other countries will be participating in the largest ever mine sweeping exercise in the gulf and that this is an attempt to prevent any kind of efforts by iran to block oil exports through the strait of hormuz was at the same
12:07 am
time washington is completing a new radar system in qatar that will combine with already existing radar systems into key and in israel met together these will form a broad auk of anti missile coverage now these developments out in the public but they do come on the back of rumors that are going on in private and that is that israel would never consider any kind of military action on iran and this and head american support whether or not this is true is impossible to say but certainly any kind of israeli action would result in a full scale regional conflict and at the same time the united states by publicly not supporting the war is me trying to ensure itself against any kind of future israeli action policy our team to have of. stevens's professor of politics and international studies at the university of san francisco things war with iran will devastate both sides. i think there was
12:08 am
a time where the summit in the white house and elsewhere of the war with iran would be a disaster i mean even putting aside the moral concerns the legal concerns about both sides of flicked the war games and other scenarios you have been looking at all come out to the same conclusion because some bad we got away leaving in a sense and so the united states is concerned as we are about nuclear or about iran's nuclear program want to do one of the can to war and war is really general staff the time generals i've done some of the calculations of the pentagon has and americanize it really would be you know the enron story that it would be a disaster for israel as well with unleashed you know thousands of rockets into and into israel iran so it has no nuclear arsenal of missiles or to do a lot of damage and and certainly on balance israel could do more harm to iran that iran could be to israel and certainly would not send back their nuclear program to
12:09 am
any substantial degree in fact if anything it would give the iranians a motivation to go actually branch off from once as far as we know of so far as the billion program and to actually developing nuclear weapons. and don't forget to log onto our web site for this story and more at home and here's what you can find out right now the private e-mails of the mastermind of the containing correspondence revealing how on this brake pad he's a toxin is released in a wheelchair shops. to .

12:11 am
tomorrow will bring for canada's mostly french speaking province of quebec that means agitation for separation is stirring yet again as voters head to the polls it's a three way fight to be the dominant force in convex parliament with emotions running high i can back as one hundred eighty four billion dollars in debt and has an economy that has grown by a mere one point seven percent in the last year falling behind canada as a whole competing at the ballot box are the incumbent liberals the firstly form coalition for the future of conduct and the separatist war and it's the latter which is proving most popular at the polls marching ahead of the others at around thirty three percent this means the issue of convex breakaway from canada could return to the forefront of the decade long reign of the liberals comes to a close it's the latest example of separatism spreading its wings globally in trouble some economic times the separatists leading in the polls claim their short

term priority would be picking the economy up of its knees instead of pushing for a separation vote straight away the party leader says a referendum on convex independence would only be held if there was complete confidence in a win for now opinion polls suggest less than forty percent of the provinces population would support a split previous referendum referendums on the issues ended up in defeat for a breakaway in one nine hundred eighty and then again in one thousand nine hundred five the new found was over can back comes after months of student and union protests raging amid summer and spring tens of thousands of students have made their ways out onto the streets and shown their public outrage with clashes with police making news headlines across the world tuesday's vote is seen by many as an echo of this public discontent the question of what happens to canada next looms large expert. believe that the more the economic uncertainty continues the louder
12:13 am
the calls for québec solving will be how canada and come back with fair without each other is a matter of fierce debate among experts we might now be much closer to finding out and say since you're going to party moscow canadian reporter michael for in says quebec is growing it strange to from the rest of canada with people left with little alternative and a separatist. i think what it really comes down to is that bankers will be choosing the lesser of three evils and for many people especially people the younger popular population they feel that there was a move in the step forward maybe towards more of a progressive message in the province a lot of the polish party politics you seem between the three parties they do they have very very many of the same policies in this and they're spending from the liberal party in terms of you know you saw the tuition protests going on a few months ago and they're even still going on now but i think when it comes down to it people are just making a choice based upon dissatisfaction with that with all the three major parties and
12:14 am
when it comes to i mean austerity measures well yeah there have been cut but i mean i think that's been across the board for most canadian provinces in the sense in terms of you know the support of separatism across the province i think across the board of people really just don't care anymore i mean canadians used to care we used to care or you know if it was somebody in a bird or in terror we had family out there friends and they'd say to us you know are you guys really going to be voting to leave and i think even in the past few months we saw polls it was a poll done asking canadians you know do you care for kickback leaves and half of canadians said no we don't care. this is coming up in a few minutes adventurous spirit. i just felt like bungee jumping you're right jumping have become a really popular pastime can't rush they're going to give a guy. five centuries to find prime time and it will drive the young people to take up extreme sports. that's exciting

and the u.s. is the democratic national convention has kicked off with thousands of delegates gathering in north carolina the meeting is expected to culminate with brought the bomb that can fund at the democratic party candidate for the white house and this comes to a halt on the heels of last week's republican convention that harsh criticism of obama's four years in the oval office address and examined and it contributed to the truth out website doesn't see much light for the us most trouble spots whoever wins the election the republican opposition to obama's agenda in congress has really prevented the democrats from putting forth the agenda that they wanted however i will note that obama came into power at a time of severe financial crisis and was inherited this incredible recession and didn't do well enough about it at first light stimulus here and slight stimulus there really haven't been able to cut it there hasn't been regulation of the banks
12:16 am
in a sufficient way and that the main crisis can the united states which is to say the financial clutch on the global economy and the corporate stranglehold on the political system hasn't shaken up at all because president obama comes from a coalition that led to that in the first place the way to think about what's happening to america and essentially the north atlantic coalition in general is that things are getting very very much worse somewhat slow and if president obama were reelected they would get much worse if it continued slow ready and if president if there were. president romney that would get much worse out of recovery i mean that's essentially the way to look at it the shift of money and power from the bottom to the top where they accelerate under romney and vision for working people for women for. you know for communities of color that are subject amassing incarceration for our. countries of our that are plagued by drone strikes we
12:17 am
get much worse under mitt romney and they're already going to get quite bad and there have president obama. turning to yemen now where recent a u.s. drone strike that claimed the lives of thirteen civilians has sparked outrage across the country that time which was supposed to target the car the suspected al qaeda militant tape to other vehicles that said such strikes are part of a joint u.s. yemen campaign against terrorist networks in the country however i. call at columbia university says the u.s. strategy is only helping to recruit terrorists. in the case of yemen and yemen is a very troublesome country especially to the major ally else united states which is so the arabian any instability in yemen all out of control instability in yemen good. tools for impacts of the region in the world in terms of floral and credit and the stability of saudi arabia so that it does one of the main
12:18 am
reasons why did the u.s. is there dislike and is the of course the a public one which is after nine eleven. the. most people from the qaeda are doomed or deemed to have to come from yemen so that's why the u.s. is trying to. do the nip it in the bud basically. people in yemen unfortunately i think empires. we've seen this time and again in history and it's seen that the u.s. is doing the same mistake it's creating more and more hatred by doing. for instance when deuce thirteen people were killed but probably most of them if not all of them are not involved in any way or mother in any terrorist activity so that it creates more resentment and pushes more people from the root to shoot to go on will become activists to get the policy explosives in the region so unfortunately i will see you why. do americans or the leaders of the american do not see that
12:19 am
this is a policy that is going nowhere just creating more war he trees around the world and to some other news from around the world in breve syrian opposition our claim that twenty five people have been killed and the government as tried on a building in the city of assad forces say the strike targeted rebel forces operating in their area which is in the hotspot province of aleppo this comes as the new un international envoy to syria lakhdar brahimi described his mission to stop the fighting as nearly impossible. dozens of south african miners have been released after murder charges against them were dropped their sentence was related to the deaths of thirty four striking colleagues shot by police during a riot the decision to free the murray can a workers followed widespread public outcry against their detention the killings are seen as the wise display of state violence since our part i had ended a decade ago. dozens of wildfires are ravaging central and northern parts of

millions of hits online but the ball just assertions it was not something we planned i decided to go on the rooftop and ask my friends to join i looked around and i felt i needed something more my friend was of course very worried about me but i said that everything was under control and decided to take a walk i think a lot of people like it because it provokes sincere emotions thrill and drive unhappiness i was doing what i had wanted to do for such a long time but still i was very surprised to. hear. green works part time at the appropriately named mads a group that offers the opportunity to do harness jumps in musk i just felt like bungee jumping and great jumping have to come a really popular pastime here in russia so we're going to give it a go. well

though certainly an adrenaline rush but for some people even that kind of sport is not enough and there's a lot of people many of them in the team here have gone even further while many of the activities to tell you on the edge of legality some of the other stunts simply leap past the boundaries of the law. so you listen to all our adventures in impromptu but for me it's a path to some new level of ability to become a kind of superman because it provides a may play a role but as luck and on numerous occasions. those who've been without it lost their lives it's a stark reality that's left many questioning just why there's been such a surge in youths who willing to take the plunge of more of the one of the key reasons for teenagers is it is easier to be different not like other people they know in
12:23 am
a society where people increases are suppressed or everyone is forced to wear the same clothes to behave in the same fashion to wear the same makeup teenagers are looking hard for their own identity i certainly a way to test yourself but you have to be well aware of the risk because you're risking your life when you as the marina have friends and a growing number of like minded russians it seems that's a risk a willing to take surf city. and time now for business sort of cases it's very nice to see your cases all russia's w membership may put the country's steel makers under pressure why is that absolutely it's the free market rules it's forcing them to reduce prices to compete with foreign as you say and that means lower profitability and made rising local towers on energy transportation but alexei more a dash of the c.e.o. of one of the world's may just still make his sevastopol is sure the new trade
