is pulling all to his strings. online on screen international news and comment live from the new center here in moscow painful and unjust and even unfair but nevertheless necessary the greek prime minister antinous amount of has made his pitch for the latest and one of the harshest yet austerity packages set to come into force but far from everyone is behind him with thousands gathering to protest against the cuts peter one of the reports from the heart of it in greece's second largest city. greek prime minister antonis samaras has said he's willing to do everything in his power to make sure that greece remains within the euro zone he did however acknowledge that the cuts that he's going to have to make to public spending were unfair and painful to the greek people but how unfair and painful they were they were necessary if greece was

to maintain any level of credibility on the international finance stage now that credibility could be tested very soon as we see older does from the so-called troika arrive here in greece to assess whether the required cuts to greece's crippling budget deficits how be made two more of them receiving the next round of bailout money a all important lifeline of thirty one billion euros the troika of course made up of representatives from the the euro zone countries also the international monetary fund and the european central bank books however important it is to mr somare is that greece remains within the euro zone and gets and makes those cuts people in here in greece are extremely unhappy here in thessaloniki we're seeing thousands of people coming out onto the streets of greece the second city to demonstrate against the way that the current government is handling the financial crisis and it's not just in terms of demonstrations that we're seeing people that are unhappy in greece

in terms of polls at the moment the current coalition is lacking in second place behind a on t.v. and anti bailout opposition party more worrying though is that in third place is the ultra right nationalist group calling themselves golden dawn they coming in third place in the polls and the greek voters current opinions. the major gripe of many protesters is that these new cuts target some of the country's most vulnerable including pensioners low income workers and those on state benefits and when dartmouth m.e.p.a. from the u.k. independence party questions just what it is that greece gains from clinging to the euro. i would have sermonize that many many people in greece will feel will feel that greece has has suffered enough already from being in the euro. and what is it that they're really being offered they're just being offered more of

the same it's another dead end. leading to nowhere and already that the greek economy has contract by almost ten percent since the crisis began i mean how much more dignity contract i mean the fact of the matter is that the political establishment in these countries always tends to be in favor of more or more europe more euro although the evidence is absolutely crystal clear that that it isn't working it doesn't work what we're watching is a slow slow motion train crash which also could endanger the entire world economy. and with finances across the e.u. firmly in the doldrums many once prosperous companies are having to trim the fat but it's easier said than done with migrant workers flooding the job market across the block working harder longer and cheaper the funding favor among customers and envy from those they force old reports over here at a construction site where all the workers as well as the owners of the construction

company are from belgium and. ford workers from other countries and more often than not these workers much less counterparts in the emberg for example a province in flanders which has a significant construction sector thirty eight percent of all companies have lost bids to foreign firms ninety percent of them expect to lose bits in the future and this is prompted fears that in the coming months one in five companies will have to lay people off setting prices to go what we can call. to work but if that work is going to other companies then we will lose a lot of jobs in the. local firms say they are also losing out when it comes to speed of delivery our billing sectors have a union. to do good for strict. rules but if you look at the foreign companies people work ten twelve thirteen fourteen hours a day six. of course for delivery speed of your project is

a huge advantage and more belgian clients are opting to try their services these people are much more flexible so that's that's why we tried it and it was it was a success europe's debt crisis has dealt a massive blow to a sector that employs up to sixteen million e.u. citizens and with no clear signs of the tough times letting up tension is brewing especially when local firms feel they're getting the short end of the stick on their own turf tesser cilia r.t. . antwerp in belgium. things are better for greece's fellow sufferer italy either the world's oldest founded before christopher columbus discovered america is no on the verge of bankruptcy well the banks predicament is explored in the cause report with explaining its looming downfall the full program is coming up in the next hour but here's a quick preview for you in italy world all this bank faces uncertain future monti

passkey did not survive berlusconi's bunga bunga parties it seems the country bank is on the verge of bankruptcy it's the third biggest bank in italy and now it has all these government bonds which is trying to sell but of course the yield keeps going up and up meaning their bonds are going down and down so they are caught in a spiral nobody knows for sure there is some sort of bailout agreement reached with the italian government but nobody knows what it actually means the government became toxic in their underwear this you know member any other jones at the scene where he replaces the bag of jewels with a bag of sand but it doesn't quite do it and the big boulder follows him down through the tunnel this is the this bank now in italy they realize that there was a swap and they now hold government bonds that are junk and they're trying to run away down the tunnel.

because a report coming in where little. rock police in bahrain again resorted to to gas and stun grenades to disperse the latest unauthorized demonstration dozens of people ignored the government's ban and took to the streets demanding the release of prisoners of conscience. since the end of august the latest follow choose days court decision to uphold the guilty verdict for position activists accused of plotting to overthrow the government patrick henningsen who's a geo political analyst for the u.k. colum website thinks it'll take a lot more to break the protest movement. the problem in bahrain is this is an actual democratic reform movement this is a real arab spring movement this isn't like the kind of fake arab spring that you saw in egypt this has been brewing and boiling over for over one year now but yet it's been more or less not commented on at all in the global mainstream corporate media and some of the state run media organizations like the b.b.c. so i think it's obvious why bahrain is hosting the u.s.

fifth naval fleet bahrain is in absolutely the most key position in the straits of hormuz so the existence and maintenance of the u.s. using bahrain as their chief outpost is of excellent strategic importance and they will not negotiate they will not tolerate a democratic uprising in bahrain where they could make an unstable leadership they need that is an outpost for western imperialism. coming up on program a matter of taste. in the cows are labeled organic regular. people in new york weigh in on the debate surrounding the labels on genetically modified products. more and more jobs are created online the boom in india. and in the west but from very different reasons.

very nearly eleven minutes past the top economic movers from east and west together at the apec summit in russia with the common aim of global growth the traditional the u.s. and europe in decline asia pacific countries feel it's up to them to pick up the task of recovery. is following developments at the forum. president who said that right now the global economy has reached a critical point and in order to ensure stability and prosperity china is ready to take on that role of the power locomotive to pull the world with the global economy out of this crisis so it's really no surprise that russia is looking increasingly more and more towards its close neighbor and the moscow and beijing seem to agree on the lot of matters and not just in matters concerning the economy

but also concerning politics as well and now of course that russia has a lot to offer to china and china is ready and willing to receive whatever russia has to offer of course we can expect the united states to be somewhat worried about china which it probably sees as its main rival as some have suggested but of course the united states to a geisha is here right now u.s. secretary of state has met with russian foreign minister sergei lavrov bright and early this morning they were discussing again not just economic matters a but political as well they talked about syria's foreign minister said that russia has expressed its dissatisfaction with the fact that as syria gets continuously appointed with sanctions and he talked about the pointlessness of such sanctions president obama sent his regards and apologies saying that he couldn't be here if the united states right now is in the midst of its pre-election republican contender for the presidential post mitt romney has expressed his opinion that

russia is united states geopolitical enemy number one president obama doesn't seem to share that if you point saying that it is sort of a leftover from the cold war era type of thinking and president bush in. an exclusive interview ahead of the summit that say he's willing to work with whichever candidate wins the upcoming presidential elections in the united states but he did pay some compliments to president obama feeling is that he is a sense of that he sincerely wants to implement change. but can he do it will they let him do it. i mean there is also the military lobby and the department of state which is quite conservative it q as for mr romney's position we understand that this is to a certain extent motivated by election campaign rhetoric but i also think that he was on what is clearly wrong because such behavior in the international arena is the same as using nationalism and segregation as a tools of us domestic policy. of course watch the full version of this interview

on our team you tube channel. the u.s. itself made russia turn east by failing to cooperate says ben iris he's editor in chief of the business new york magazine. the idea is that you know the fast growing economies of the world are increasing linking up i mean they formalized politically with brick she's gone from a marketing and acronym to actually a political organization and here we. are getting down to the business of you know working out which roads need to be where the railways have to go going to go where this is going to you know you put a road down that's a permanent change and the trade will flow there's definitely a change in politics starting from about two thousand and four where russia was disappointed with the reception it was getting from the from the west europe and america particularly. going up to putin's famous speech in two thousand and seven where he called the west to account and said cooperate turn our back on you and i

think this conference actually marks the point where they begin to turn their back and pay much more attention they're talking about increasing trade the russians with asia fivefold. america is only talking about doubling trade with russia sense of a citizen. and so clearly building what putin's been calling the nomic union has gone to the top of the russian policy agenda and that's russia asia led by china of course and that's where all the effort is going. well you've missed from the summit as well as detailed analysis is lined up for you right now on our websites are. a lot of words and a sight to see we've got these spectacular laser show put on for the movers and shakers at the forum you can find that footage on r.t. dot com. candidates expelled all iranian diplomats from the country and close its embassy in

tehran pushing relations between the nations to crisis point or two were declared iran a state sponsor of terrorism claiming its nuclear plans and stance towards syria unacceptable to run didn't pull any punches either as it responded with promises of retaliation saying canada is being manipulated michel chossudovsky the director of the center for research on globalization based in montreal agrees canada what the one making the decisions here. this is a high only statement at timely moments. really also very serious this is because it closes down communication it isolates iran it's taking diplomacy and it is creating carboy diplomacy so to speak this decision wasn't taken in our life it was it was taken in washington cannibalism in march of proxy of the united states we have an integration of the military between the two countries there's consultation in foreign policy it's well known that the harper

government merely more or less follows in the footsteps of washington and i think that they want it to science leak out of them to take the first step now it's interesting to say the least that when the foreign minister there made their statements he also said well there are no reports of on an actual attack on iran everybody is talking about an attack on iran israel is talking about it not barbless talking about it it's part of the election campaign gets an act of intimidation it's very unfortunate because we have to maintain dialogue with countries and build peace rather than create conditions which could lead to you know to a military accidents. now to some other stories making headlines around the world at this event a world update washington is designating the pakistani network a terrorist organization the movement of criticism in islamabad where senior

genetically modified foods are targeted by producers in the of the hunger risks facing the world's booming population but there's a battle between consumer groups raising the alarm about possible health hazards and food producers resisting attempts to force them to label their g.m. products so the resident already oftenest went to gauge opinion in new york. more than forty countries around the world have mandated g.m.o. labeling on food products but not in the u.s. is it fair to consumers to not have that information this week let's talk about that you would like to see the labels that absolutely why do you think we don't have them here oh i have a big conspiracy theorists and i'm sure that like the government you know because they're getting paid by the pharmaceutical companies that own the g.m. most of they don't it's all that's what i think it comes down to money like everything out right exactly and it's all about big corporations making the seeds

that are genetically modified i don't know i mean i've got a daughter who's really really particular about what she does not mean i guess in our generation we do see what it has been there it is it a younger generation concern is i think cite a lot of people say there's no direct link to it in terms of what it does to your how but then again they said that about smoking a decade this is true i mean they do listing greens in a way whether they're good for you or not so maybe they should put on there are you ok with it i'm ok with it you don't care if it's been messed with and. i just think you know we've got to be careful because we're not going to have enough food at some point if we don't we maybe need to look at other wise that we can help. in a whole. food production really think should be labeled the consumers you know the point where you get to go everywhere they are and you may go away what do you do put a bar code i have not got to read it right now and that's the other thing are people

going to pay attention and care anyway right the price someone that works in retail food on the shelf if you read those labels and you don't trust them i don't trust any levels but you know what organic labels. you know some of them i do just because they're a little healthier regardless like organic milk because i'm the same cow the cows are in label or again. regular you know they're not a lot of people say there's no law evidence that g m o's are bad for your health. so but when it's under the label you can decide if you want to eat it or not so i think that's a different if you think it's about the or not or it makes no sands you can buy it whether or not you think it's fair for a company to not have the label for g.m.o. information the bottom line is if you live in the united states you're probably ingesting a lot of g.m.o. food whether you like it or not.
