you. slam the interview out of the now you go round. to our poor absolutely one of the areas it's not the single currency. the brothers borrowed bring in canada's french speaking poor back on our shoulder tough times people are increasingly opting for into. the grass is said to be a rancher saying up and threats against iran in a bid to delay a possible israeli strike against the country. the markets are positive territory as investors here moscow's shrug off a disappointing session in asia dismal troubles hit the your eyes i don't mean about twenty minutes i'll have

a breakdown of all the state goes of the global x.m.l. to determine that. international news life for moscow this is with me thanks for joining us more bad news for the european union as a ratings giant media's slaps a negative outlook on the blog with the possible downgrade looming it's meant to reflect the troubles of its main budget contributors including germany and france and less sit downs between e.q. needers have so far failed to bring about any opening for change tuesday will see greece and portugal under scrutiny from their creditors as france and italy continue to tense to dig their way out of trouble meanwhile if the european public bearing the brunt of the crisis in other words plays regions and delusive has run out of money and asked central government for help the vestment adviser patrick

young says they announce the weaker members are destroying the euro zone. not withstanding the terrible crisis in the euro zone the truth is that the european union's glorious idea that they can rebuild these money together and go towards prosperity has been a fiasco because all of the people of the euro are being sucked towards opportunity because of the fact that there have been transferred so much money to the profligate think competent governments that are on the southern side of the euro zone there's a wonderful article by the mayor of london boris johnson talking about how cruel their show is going to be sucked into the euro because they've pledged to join it because they are exceeding to the european union next year that would be a suicide move for any nation that wants to join ultimately the prosperous club of the euro zone has turned into a very bitter amongst few do drunks over who is going to get the last measure of vodka and that is not a way that any other government is going to be happy in being complicit with the

economic mismanagement of a crumbling field single currency zone. meanwhile with one eye on the troubles of its neighbors bell garia has put it here ambitions on hold despite finally having qualifies to join. reports now on the e.u.'s poorest members change of heart. bulgaria is posing the latest blow to the embattled currency know it has put on hold its long held plans of joining the euro bloc and interesting we 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 and all the rules they don't they want to back down and 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 block 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 that changing the public opinion in bulgaria people they're asking the very same questions that the citizens of creditor euro zone countries are asking who else are going to bail out 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 three years already it was staring measures cuts in pensions and wages and we know for the last year especially the term a stereo 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 had said that it will only join the euro when quote unquote europe was ready and of course that that is at this point very unclear when this state will be coming and also latvia has lost and 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 countries 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. you're watching our figure this hour a tough choice a look at the election of the u.s. says the democrats gather for a convention but surely declare braga vom of their candidate. also coming out a but what should she do us drone strike leads to video casualties and widespread outrage in yemen find out why the u.s. is now not in a vicious cycle in the war against terror. but going it alone and that's what's on the minds of

a growing number of voters in canada's french speaking province of quebec this tuesday people are said to go to the polls the truth is their government with this separate is gaining ground i mean the country's financial turmoil and the citric and explains. gloomy economic times attracts social instability and uncertainty and what 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 come 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 combat 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 troublesome 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 the new found was over could 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 canada in quebec would fare without

each other is a matter of fierce debate among experts we might now be much closer to finding out if they see churkin or moscow. canadian reporter michael foreign says quebec is growing as strange from the rest of canada with people left with little alternative than a separatist. i think what it really comes down to is that the backers will be choosing the lesser of three evils and for many people especially people the younger popular population they feel that that helps you get back why is a movement to step forward maybe towards more of a progressive message in the province a lot of the polit party politics you seem between the three parties they do they have very very many of the same policies in the sense 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 the with all of the three major parties and when it comes to i mean austerity measures well yeah there have been cutbacks

and 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 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 in the past few months we saw polls it was a poll done asking canadians you know do you care of chemical leaves and half of canadians said no we don't care because you can always log on to a website called this story and more at home and his what you can find that right now the private e-mails of a man came out a book containing correspondence and revealing how under the gravy pattern of attack is very neat to know which in shops. and kind of all of london of diplomatic corporate passions up to the u.k. apparently a prince at lock lets the russian officials bond from entering the country of

the us is reportedly taking further in direct action against iran to delay a possible israeli strike against the country saying it will not. washington going to be under pressure from zero to declare certain red lines of attack iran's nuclear program. report. 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 time washington is completing a new radar system in qatar that will combine with already existing radar systems in turkey and in israel met together these will form a broad och 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 they said 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 a war is so me trying to ensure itself against any kind of future israeli action

policy our team tel aviv. stephen since professor of politics and international studies at the university of san francisco things war with iran will devastate both sides. i think there was an awareness summit in the white house and elsewhere that war with iran would be a disaster i mean even putting aside the moral concerns the legal concerns about that subject on flicked the war games and other scenarios that have been looking at all come out to the same conclusion the costs and badly outweigh the benefits and so the united states is concerned as they are about nuclear or about iran's nuclear program want to do whatever they can to war and war the israeli general staff the time generals i've done some of the calculations of the pentagon has and recognize that it really would be the a nonstarter that it would be a disaster for israel as well with on the leash you know thousands of rockets into

and into israel iran itself has a you know nuclear arsenal of missiles actually 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 any substantial degree in fact if anything it would give the iranians a motivation to go actually branched off from once as far as we know so far is a billion program and to actually developing nuclear weapons. coming up in a few minutes adventurous spirit. a gentle like bungee jumping at something at the can really popular pastime can russia they're going to give it. a good run but i think powerful adventures to find out firsthand what drives young people to take up and stream sports. but let's turn to yemen before

that where a recent u.s. drone strike that claimed the lives of thirteen civilians has sparked outrage across the country now time which was supposed to target the car a suspected al qaeda militants to other vehicles and such strikes are part of a joint u.s. again campaign against terrorist networks in the country where they you know as are you a research scholar at columbia university says the u.s. strategy is only helping to recruit future terrorists. in the case of yemen and yemen is a very troublesome country especially to the major ally of snow states which is sort of any instability in yemen or out of control instability in yemen could influence here in the richest region in the world in terms of floral and could create in the stability of saudi arabia so that it does one of the main reasons why did the u.s. is there the second is the of course the a public one which is after nine eleven. being most people from the qaeda are

doomed or deemed the two to come from yemen so that's why the u.s. is trying to. through that and nip it in the bud basically in a way that people in yemen unfortunately i think empires do not learn we've seen this time and again in history and it seems that the u.s. is doing the same mistake it's creating more and more hatred by doing this for instance when does thirteen people were killed. probably most of them if not all of them are not involved in any way on the other you know any terrorist activity so that it creates more resentment and pushes more people from dead religion to take up arms and become activists against the policy of snowsuits in the region so unfortunately i don't see why. the american. leaders of the american or genitives do not see that this is a policy that is going no way just creating more and more he trees around the world

. in the us the democratic national convention is kicking out with thousands of delegates gathering in north carolina the three day event will culminate who have brought the obama confirmed as the democratic party candidate this comes home from the heels of last week's republican convention that's still a strong criticism of adama's four years in the white house just an exam that mess and i can contribute to to the truth out website doesn't seem much light ahead for the us who are what wins the election. 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 elected they would get much worse to continue slow rate and if president if there were a president romney that would get much worse at a quicker rate and 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 the condition

for working people for women for. you know communities of color that are subject amassing incarceration for. countries abroad that are plagued by drone strikes we get much worse under mitt romney and they're already going to get quite bad under president obama. and let's not check some other world news in brief for you this hour syrian opposition acts of its claim that twenty five people have been killed and the government as tried on a building in the city of assad's forces say this strike targeted rebel forces operating in the area which is in the hotspot province of aleppo this comes as the new you are an international envoy to syria lakhdar brahimi described his mission to stop the fighting as nearly impossible. to the south african miners have been released after the murder charges against them would prompt their sentence was related to the data that he is trying calling police during the riot the decision

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. all or adventurism impromptu for me it's a path to some new level of ability to become a kind of superman as 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 youth who willing to take the plunge are. one of the key reasons for teenagers is it is easier to be different not like other people they know in a society where people are suppressed were everyone is forced to wear the same clothes to behave in the same fashion to wear the same make up teenagers are looking hard for their own identity it took me in a way to test yourself but you have to be well aware of the risk because you're risking your life as the marina her friends and a growing number of like minded russians it seems that's a risk a willing to take surf see. their own to a different kind of extra work seriously of business so many people say you need nerves of steel to work in finance k.c. absolutely they do i certainly can do it i'm happy to talk about it all day long but as for traders especially with other people's money is where you got to be
