austerity measures with talks to continue the fiercest opposition the cons have a vote come from the greeks themselves as options peace are on the. greek prime minister antonis samaras isn't sugar coating his message after the split between who can't. there is no other way. it would seem that the greek public don't agree with the pm. this weekend saw large demonstrations in the country's major cities and when you look around those cities you can see the effects of the crisis on every corner this was once thessaloniki busiest market now like a ghost town. costus has run this coffee shop since the one nine hundred seventy s. he lays the blame for the current troubles on a political class who are looking out for greek interests if the politicians don't

care about the people they can more about what germany's done what the greek people need think the people on the street and invariably the conversation will turn to talk of tax as pensions and wages have been slashed prices and taxes have soared when the cuts from the from. and in the same time of a increase taxes it's very very difficult to pay some bills for the. water from the photo with unemployment at just under twenty five percent and fee is that it's just a matter of time before it passes the thirty percent mark people take where they can find it constantine works in a factory that produces industrial lubricants a university graduate with degrees in nanotechnologies and biology this isn't the work he was trained for that counts himself lucky to have it. share situation is

bad but this work allows me to provide for my family and i enjoy. as unhappy as the vast majority of greeks are with the current situation if the country is to remain in the euro zone an extra eleven point five billion will have to be cut from greece's deficit to make sure it receives e.u. bailout money that means more pain ahead for the greek taxpayer but despite their m. . t. towards tomorrow's his plans even the harshest critics of the government fear that a return to the drachma would open a pandora's box of fresh financial woes but that he is going to get the bottom line is we must stay in the euro no doubt we have to stay he is a symbol is that going back to the old currency would be futile. these are all the party there's a lot to keep greece. the chorus of those blaming political not financial woes in europe for the spread of the economic crisis is growing at the asia pacific summit

that took place in russia's far east over the weekend aussies pisa lavelle engaged leading experts in a discussion of what's wrong with capitalism and how to fix it and you can watch the two part special panel here on r.t. files the day. before you. keep the deficit is. a question the right. now to listen without bankruptcy is like christianity without. a car bomb ripped through syria's largest city of aleppo killing seventeen people and wounding forty others according to the state run news agency the blast occurred just hours after a jordanian militant leader links to al qaeda warns that his extremist group was

launching deadly attacks to help anti assad fighters and then build the syrian social club expert group says the conflict in the country is no longer just a syrian revolution. it has turned into a more regional wider conflict krapp's even has some sort of an international war on syrian soil really i personally witnessed first. demonstration on the seventh of may two thousand and eleven. for muslim extremists this you remember see in london shouting very clearly islam only. doesn't need any explanation does it so it is not surprising what we see or hearing that there are jihadists who are coming into syria because most empowers have a long time seen this conflict as the same model or the same you know viewing point just like this we have understand three decades ago the problem we're having

basically is that took so long to acknowledge that you had used. you know element after i think it was too late the u.s. might have abstained from supporting the syrian rebels militarily at least openly but it's actually it flooding the surrounding nations with weapons it's been announced that the middle east has become the leading buyer of american arms as fears that the conflict within with the syrian government's main ally iran could be on the cards or not is again there to check out reports. the world may be terrified of a potential war with iran but for arms producers tensions fear is good business so it is for the united states according to a recent congressional research service report within just one year the u.s. has tripled its arms sales tripled here's how it looks in numbers just around twenty billion dollars in two thousand and ten and over sixty billion dollars in two thousand and eleven so this is six point three billion dollars to be exact according to this report as far as the u.s.

share on the global market is almost eighty percent of all worlds arm sales have to mention this congressional service research that arrived the numbers from unclassified arms sales reports now who provided the spike in sales that is mostly the persian gulf states half of what the u.s. sold last year went to saudi arabia eighty four advanced and fifteen fighters a variety of ammunition missiles in the just it support dozens of attack helicopters but why this spike looking at the graphics one might thing something is brewing here apparently many experts think the same with spoke with daryl kimball of the arms control association here's what he said we often see conflict emerge after a group of states in a particular region with tensions have bought or built weapons

so this does not necessarily ensure security but clearly the insecurities of the region the doubts about maintaining peace between states in that region are driving these wealthy countries in the middle east to buy u.s. weapons. there's already a war going on in the region the civil war in syria saudi arabia and other gulf states are actively involved in the war there funneling weapons to the rebels in the strive to bring down assad iran's longtime ally in the region many experts talk about syria as a stepping stone to iran in a sense the war on iran has already started the spiking arms sales could be a graphic sign of it it's hard to claim that arms sales is the end game for the us although we does profit handsomely from the sales in february nine hundred forty five president roosevelt at a meeting in egypt with abdul aziz bin souled the founder of modern saudi arabia

pledged to defend the kingdom in exchange for a steady flow of oil up to this day u.s. actions in the region have been consistent with that goal the us has armed the gulf states to the teeth turning a blind eye to widespread human rights violations of democracy terrorists turning a blind eye to a lot of things the question is whether the world is ready for another devastating war in the region i'm going to check on our. some of america's largest corporations have had to egypt hoping to bring new business ties in the wake of the country's uprising is the largest u.s. trade delegation ever to travel to the arab world the push for new markets come as washington has sweeten the deal with a pledge of one billion dollars into the cairo egypt's foreign policy has been largely in line with that talking to us expressing sympathy for the uprising in syria and demonstrating support for bahrain's ruling family and coalesced around

zegerid has written extensively about developments in the arab world have the american trip to egypt has an agenda that stretches beyond that. is organized by the u.s. government although they are insisting the political aspect is a minor aspect this move is not too far removed from the i.m.f. negotiations with egypt so what egypt is trying to get about four point eight billion dollars is not far removed from what the qataris and the saudis and the turks frankly have been doing which is offering all these supposedly free money to egypt to billions of dollars worth of investments billions of dollars that are actually going to pay the salaries of ordinary egyptians all of this is tying the hands of the egyptian government even surely morsi and his government no matter how well intended he is he's going to find himself in a situation where it's going to become extremely difficult to escape all these strings that are controlling him and controlling his policies and controlling his government. and while the u.s.

comes up with a virus ways to put egypt in a choke hold people forced out by the rest of nearby countries to make. much more coming your way. in believe me. just one or two executions in a very go through your life. you know with thirty percent of the people. if you didn't texas or not. why you know living known to affluence larry. is a smack and you know we execute our convicted capital murder we have the highest execution rate in america we're not afraid to do it we do it well this becomes a point when death becomes. our ever new hope. our get a letter your dad is due to be executed next week then his appearance scary moment

a state of escalation since last since last year since the attempt of the thirty's to assert control of the northern part of the province and foreign supervision as i said it's not so much decreasing as it's changing venues now all of the contact is going to be directly between nato and the sponsors of this so-called independent of course and the so-called government there the change is purely cosmetic this is this is entirely for show the e.u. police mission that came in in two thousand and eight was supposed to apply and the u.n. mission and the nato peacekeeping force has been there since one thousand nine hundred nine the names are shifting around and it's basically just the shifting of the scenery but the screenplay and the lines of the actors remain the same. plenty more stories on oscar dot com that she may have missed on so how to live for the latest . where they draw the line learned germans want to use their constitutional right

cracking down trying to organize on the time what to do the kind of some of them. on the understanding that the tourists and this is legal but when they were. very true and the country tried to fit towards jobs and they kept looking for jobs all the time without in vain also you see and has been working here for nearly two years he's got a degree in social work but the only employment he can find is to wait tables in amman his salary pays his rent the race to send home for his wife and children there's nothing left for a new visa. every six to seven months the police make a check during this time i stay at home and isolate myself for about ten days to two weeks the police are starting to get more strict but i'm not thinking about going back to egypt for now because the security situation there is not stable whatever hardships they face here in jordan their families back home depend on if

a drug called lariam and it may have prevented many soldiers from getting sick the question tonight is whether or not soldiers were adequately warned about its rare side effects serious life changing side effects. of a two financial matters now marina's that of the russian markets are now open water the figures like that all the figures are mechs truly and we're seeing a lackluster performance but it is the first half hour of the credit sessions so it is expected this will take a look at the latest figures and the viewers of course on the sound what i'm talking about basically it's a fall out in some regard as you can see that when it comes to the mindset of the arts we are setting about a quarter of a percent now also will have an effect on that we'll take a look at that was laid up on first of all a stable vasa and talk about gas bomb and that's because losses in the pending gas for the have now been left without their mind the service or that's as gas from has

stopped buying gas from other companies that are most news paper says this way the monopolist aims to support its own production on falling demand however independent firms will still be able to use gas from pipelines and sold gas to its subsidiaries . less continue with a currencies we do have of that if it is for the ruble first let's start with the euro which is still we couldn't against the the us. when it comes to the ruble it's now losing against major currencies this monday now take a look at the asian markets where we've seen. it was next for the first two hours there in moscow right now we're seeing that it's all lumped into negative it's still very much for what we do know is that in china of aforetime out over the weekend with the sell rise in inflation as well as a winter then and this industrial activity so that's obviously not sitting well with investors and so when other exporters are struggling and that's as another

point they're not selling in the economy that want to stay with us and talk about the asian pacific economic cooperation summit what's that place over the weekend and as far is because that was in fact the focus of right now it seems that the council is looking for business and investment opportunities and ours is that image with explains why. the apec summit here in symbolizes the wind of change not just for russia but for the global economy voyde yet another crisis you needed and the need it quickly china's outgoing president hu jintao says he's very much concerned with notable downside risks to a slowing economy this is coupled with the fact the e.u. is still in a deep debt crisis so russia is naturally turning to asia boosting trade in the pacific rim to twenty one percent overall but the e.u. remains its main trade partner accounting for fifty one percent present putin wants

to bury much of lloyd was. concerned with the recent investigation into gas. and with i think the main reason for this investigation is the difficult economic situation in the euro zone mainly talking about eastern european countries and the problem is to park in the days when they join the european union the liabilities to subsidise those economies. but apparently someone in the european commission decided that we must assume part of this burden i mean that europe wants to maintain its political influence and things too we should pay a little. but that is not a constructive approach. for russia the apec summit is not so much about the business deals it's about building bridges to asia on the sidelines of the forum president vladimir putin held negotiations with new zealand to form free trade zones and although may sound surprising as they're not exactly the most significant trade partners for most china has also done the same thing because it sets

a precedent for the deals and now is the right time because russia is a fresh member pledges to boost transparency tariffs and fight protection as part of a second look at some of the markets also at m. particular and see the performance there on friday because that always has a major effect on how other markets perform around the world and as you can see that was what hauls us if in fact americans are turned a negative piece of news into something positive what i mean by that is that the. declined sharply slowed down i should say for the month of august but many investors are saying that maybe this is the person that's make the federal reserve take action and activate some of those then less measures in particular monetary stimulus now if we take a look at oil prices which of course always have a major effect on the russian markets we see that it's still a mixed picture there lights which lighting at around ninety six dollars for the brand buy that around one hundred fourteen have insight that right now is setting

at the highest level in almost a week and this is speculation that china and the u.s. will stimulate their economies and talents are signs of a slowdown which occurred you know with demand that's what i have for you this hour next hour of course we'll have the european markets which well the new lead i'll tell you about that right here shortly well thank you marina and i'll be back in a few minutes with the or. the headlines to stay with. the.
