is pulling off to a strings. on screen international news and comment live from the new center here in moscow painful unjust and even unfair but nevertheless necessary the greek prime minister . has made his pitch for the latest in one of the harshest yet a sturdy package is set to come into force but far from everyone is behind him with thousands gathering to protest against the cuts peter all of the reports from the heart of it in greece is second largest city. the greek prime minister antonis samaras estate 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 on things 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 old it is from the so-called troika arrive here in greece to assess whether the required cuts to greece's crippling budget deficits copy made toward them receiving the next round of bailout money a whole important lifeline is to eighty one billion euros the troika of course made up of representatives from 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 but it's not just in terms of demonstrations they were saying people that are unhappy in greece

in terms of polls at the moment the current coalition is lacking in second place behind a county and anti bailout opposition party more worrying though as it 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 i'm willing to almost any pay from the u.k. independence party questions just what it is that greece gains from clinging to the euro. i would have some eyes that many many people in greece will feel will feel that greece has has suffered enough already from being in the euro. what is it that they're really being offered they're just going over it more of the

same it's another dead end. leading to nowhere and already 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 you've always been in favor of more and 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. 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 they're finding favor among customers and envy from those they force out. the reports who were here at a construction site where all the workers as well as the owners of the construction

company 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 brig for example a province of flanders which has a significant construction sector thirty eight percent of all companies have lost to foreign firms ninety percent of them expect to lose bids in the future and this is prompted fears that in the coming months what it five companies will have to lay people off setting prices that are too low it's what we can call.

member any other job. but it doesn't quite do it and the big boulder follows them down through the tunnel this is the this bank now in italy they realize that there was a slump and they now all government bonds that are junk and they're trying to run away down the tunnel. the cars report coming our way to the latest. bahrain's government has announced it will sue the opposition

over a band launch penney's once again resorted to tear gas and stun grenades to disperse the latest on authorized demonstration dozens of people ignored the government's ban and took to the streets demanding the release of prisoners of conscience bahrain has been witnessing constant protests since the end of august the latest follows tuesday's court decision to uphold the guilty verdict for opposition activists accused of plotting to overthrow the government. and he's a geopolitical analyst for the u.k. called a web site thinks it'll take a lot more 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 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 rain 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. 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 is an outpost for western imperialism. coming up later on in the program a matter of taste. organic not 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 products. as more and more jobs are created on line the freelance boom in india mts offices both there and in the west but for very different reasons.

the news continues here on r.t. and very nearly eleven minutes past the hour top economic movers from east and west to gathered at the apec summit in russia with the common aim of spurring global growth with traditional pounds like the u.s. and europe in decline asia pacific countries feel it's up to them to pick up the task of recovery he said in a glasgow is following developments the form. 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 to mitt romney has expressed his opinion that russia is united states geopolitical enemy number one president obama doesn't seem

to share that 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 son summa and that he sincerely wants to implement the positive change. but can he do it will they let him do it i mean that there is also the military lobby and the department of state which is quite conservative 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 only just clear wrong because such behavior in the international arena is the same as using nationalism and segregation as tools of u.s. domestic policy if you of course watch the full version of this interview on our tease you tube channel. and you can also see our exclusive interview with vladimir

putin right here in just over fifteen minutes from now. the u.s. itself made russia turn east by failing to cooperate says benares and in chief of the business new europe magazine the idea is that you know the fast growing economies of the world are increasing linking up i mean they formalized politically . she's gone from a marketing and acronym to actually a political organization and here. they are getting down to the business of you know working need to be where the railways have to. go where this is going to you know you put a road down that's a permanent change and the trade. change in politics starting from about two thousand and four was disappointed with the reception it was getting from the from the west to 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 five fold. 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 . led by china of course and that's where all the effort is going. all you've missed from the summit as well as detailed analysis is lined up for you on our website r.t. dot com. a lot of words said and a sight 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 on r.t. dot com.

foreign policy it's well known that the harper government really more or less follows in the footsteps of washington and i think that they want it concisely caliber to take the first step now it's interesting to say the least that when the foreign minister made their statements he also said well there are no reports of on one actual attack on iran everybody is talking about an attack on iran israel's talking about it not bombers talking about it it's part of the election campaign. it's very unfortunate because we have to maintain a dialogue with. do you. create traditions which would lead to your. well some other stories making headlines around the globe washington is designating the pakistani network a terrorist organization the movement of criticism in islamabad where senior

genetically modified foods attended by producers as an answer to the hunger risk facing the world's booming population but there's a battle between consumer groups raising the alarm about possible health hazards and food produces resisting attempts to force them to label that g.m. products the resident in this 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 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 eats and 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 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 a 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 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 . in a whole. food production really things should be labeled the consumers you know the place where you get you know every word and it may go away what do you do put a bar code i have not got to read it right now and i bet 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 but regardless like organic milk comes from the same cow the cows are labeled or again. regular you know they're not a lot of people say there's no low evidence that g m o's are bad for your health. so but when it's on the label you can decide if you want to eat it or not so i think that's the difference if you think it's probably 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 are probably ingesting a lot of g.m.o. food whether you like it or not.
