an 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 says made his pitch for the latest in one of the harshest yet was thirty packages set to come into force but far from everyone is behind him but thousands gathering to protest against the cuts. of reports from the heart of it increases 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 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 toward 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 the terms of demonstrations they receive 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 william dartmouth let me put you from the u.k. independence party questions just what it is that greece gains from clinging to the euro. i would have served my eyes that many many people in greece will feel will feel that greece as 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 to the 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 you are more you are although the evidence is absolutely crystal clear 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. with finances across the e.u. firmly in the doldrums many want 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 they're finding favor among customers and envy from those they force out what is totally reports. well we're here at a construction site where all the workers as well as the owners of the construction company are from belgium is seeing an influx of foreign workers from other

countries and more often than not these workers left the belgian 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 that are too low what we can call wage dumping people need 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're also losing out when it comes to speed of delivery our building sectors heavily unionized. to do good for. working new rules but if you look at the foreign companies people work ten twelve thirteen fourteen hours a day six days out of seven and then of course for delivery speed of your project

is a huge advantage and more belgian clients are opting to try their services 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 aren't but if greece is for those suffering it to the world's oldest bank there founded before christopher columbus discovered america is now on the verge of bankruptcy well the bank's predicament is explored in the kaiser report with max and stacy explaining its looming downfall the full program is coming up later this hour but here's a quick preview for you in the 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 debt became toxic and there are where there's you know a member in the 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 our way to later here on r.t.

police in bahrain again resorted to tear 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 arena's big protest 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 and the news of geo political analyst for the. website thinks it will take a lot to break the protest movement. but 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 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 rain is hosting the us fifth naval fleet bahrain is

in absolutely the most key position in the straits of hormuz so the existence and maintenance of the us navy 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. well coming up here later on in the program a matter of taste. because of the same cow in the cows are labeled organic or regular people in new york weigh in on the debate surrounding the labels on genetically modified. classes more and more jobs are created online the freedoms boom in india and these offices both there and in the west but for very different reasons thank.

you.

thank you top economic leavers from east and west together to the apec summit in russia with the common name of spring global growth with traditional powers like the u.s. and europe in decline asia pacific countries feel it's up to them to pick up the task of recovering bodies that are going to go is following developments for us 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 rule 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 the matters concerning the economy but also concerning politics as well and now of course 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 the 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 polls 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 for feeling is that he is a sense of that he sincerely wants to implement the positive 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 you see 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. made russia turn east by failing to cooperate benares he's editor in chief of the business new europe magazine. the idea is that

you know the fast growing economies are increasing linking up i mean they formalized politically. 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 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 not be 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 to russians with asia fivefold. america is only talking about doubling trade with russia since it is

seated. and so clearly building what putin has been calling. 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 details analysis is lined up for you on our website r.t. dot com the word said on the site to see we've got the spectacular laser and fireworks show put on for the movers and shakers of the forum you can find that footage right now on r.t. dot com. canada has expelled all iranian diplomats from the country and closed its embassy in tehran pushing relations between the nations to crisis point or to a declared iran a state sponsor of terrorism claiming its nuclear plans and stance toward syria are unacceptable to iran didn't pull any punches either as it responded with promises

of retaliation saying canada is being manipulated. chossudovsky the director of the center for research on globalization based in montreal agrees that wasn't the one making the decisions here. this is a high only statement the only moments. really are so very serious that because it closes down communication it isolates iran it's taking diplomacy and it is creating carboy diplomacy so to speak this is one 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 wanted to put 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 the 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 it's a recognition 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 washington designating the stanley based network a terrorist organization the movement criticism in islamabad where senior officials say it would undermine peace efforts in afghanistan and strain u.s. pakistani relations insurgent group is said to be active in afghanistan and has been blamed for a number of attacks on american troops here when i came to prominence in the 1980's when it was funded and hailed as freedom fighters by the cia. gyptian forces

and food producers resisting attempts to force them to label their g.m. products so the resident half of us went to gauge opinion in new york. more than forty countries around the world has 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'm a big conspiracy theorist 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 eats where it goes no i mean i guess in our generation we do see what it has been there it is it

a younger generation concern is i think so 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. greens in a way whether they're good for you or not so maybe there's a thrown on there are you ok with it you know 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. a whole. food production really think should be labeled the consumer's you know the point where you get to go everywhere and you may go away what do you do put a bar could not read it right no that's the other thing are people going to pay attention and care anyway right the price being someone that works in retail with food on the shelf you know you read those labels and you don't trust them i don't trust any labels 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 cows are in label or again. regular you know they're not a lot of people say there's no 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 the defend if you think it somehow be or not or it makes no sense you can buy it whether or not you think it's fair for a company to not have to 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. what all of these financial show the cause report is still ahead for you coming on right after i recap the main stories for in about three and a half minutes from now stay with us live here in moscow this is.
