a region is to formally gain sovereignty as a group of countries recognizing its independence prepares to remove all of the site a move many believe that threatened to escalate ethnic tensions. this is assy coming to life for most welcome to the program getting a new vital cash injection from the e.u. for greece is far from a done deal leaders of the coalition government have fails to agree on stinging cuts worth roughly twelve billion euros but the prime minister insists crucial to avoid bankruptcy by his allies in the government up jerk to across the board cuts on wages and pensions and also criticized plans to trim disability benefits at the same time greece's foreign leaders who are currently in the country to assess its progress on meeting the bailout terms also rejected parts of the austerity measures

with talks set to continue but the fiercest opposition the cost of a vote come from the greeks themselves as peter on of our report. the greek prime minister. isn't sugar coating his message after these painful. 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 the 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 the greek interests if the politicians don't

care about the people they care more about what germany is than what the greek people need big 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 from. and in the same time of 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 fears 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 but count some self lucky to have it we all thought to share a 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. . towards the morrises 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 here is the bottom line is we must stay in the euro no doubt we have to see is a simple as that going back to the old currency would be futile. there's a lot of greece. and 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 in russia's far east over the weekend peter labelle brought together leading

experts to discuss what's wrong with capitalism and how to fix it or you can watch part two of this special panel here analyse later. that day if it is. a question it's going to be. capitalism without bankruptcy is like christianity without. a car bomb ripped through syria's largest city of aleppo killing at least 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 qaida was that his extremist group was launching deadly attacks to help anti assad fighters and then build the syrian

social club groups such as the conflict in the country's 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 hand. demonstration on the seventh of may two thousand and eleven. was a mystery mists. and shouting very clearly. only. that doesn't need any explanation does it so it is not surprising what we are seeing or hearing that there are jihadist 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 these. three decades ago the problem we're having

basically is that the took so long to acknowledge that jihadist. you know element after i think it was too late. the us might have abstained from supporting the syrian rebels militarily or at least openly but it's seriously but it's actively i should say flouting the surrounding nations with weapons has been revealed that the middle east is now the leading buyer of american arms as fears man that a conflict with the syrian government's main ally iran could be on the cards and he's going to chicken 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 they arrive 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 we 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 all sod 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 that it's hard to claim that arms sales is the end game for the u.s. although he 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 like 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 headed to egypt hoping to renew business ties in the wake of the country's uprising it's the largest u.s. trade delegation ever to travel to there are wild the push for new markets comes as washington has sweetened the deal with a pledge of one billion dollars in debt relief or cairo egypt's foreign policy has been largely in line with that of the u.s. expressing sympathy for the uprising in syria and demonstrating support for bahrain's ruling family and journalist ramsey has written extensively about

developments in the arab world says the american trip to egypt has an agenda that stretches beyond because. it is organized by the u.s. government although they are insisting the political aspect is a minor aspect this move is not 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 is 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. while the us comes out with a virus ways to put

a chip in the child hold people that stuff out of their land by their own government and the rest playing to nearby countries to make ends meet. back notch more coming your way and just going that's just. the. line in motion. which brighten if you are about someone from funniest impression it's. nice for instance on t.v. dot com. i've had to next question dates in believe me or just a one or two the execution date is enough for anybody to go through my life and. you know more than fifty percent of the people here if you didn't texas or not. why

you know live in north darfur is like. this it's like 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. i would get a letter your dad is due to be executed next week then his appearance scary moment for you to know you can loose here want to be appearing at the in a manner of me saying that it's time to go. and i would lead him into the to the best chamber. card stayed till after they were dating.

this is the welcome back the breakaway region of cos well officially again the riots of sovereignty late on monday despite belgrade refusing to recognize first seen as independence an international group consisting of twenty five countries which did but years ago is preparing to make it formal now and this means the end to western supervision something that sparked fears of ethnic serbs being prosecuted in the region but journalist and voice and knowledge it's a cosmetic move that will hardly decrease foreign involvement. tensions are have been constantly in

a state of escalation since last since last year since the attempt of the other in your 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 seat of course or. 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 support supply and the un 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 but the screenplay and the lines of the actors remain the same and have got plenty more stories for you on r.c. dot com if you missed any oh nasa had a line for the latest like where they call the line land germans want to use their constitutional right to keep looking at prices on sky boxes. also to

serve and protect and to abate traffic rules and u.s. officials are clamping down on those guilty of running red lights including on the police and. other name calling of the manhattan skyline iraq's main town that had a line to find out how long it took the artistic raised in moscow. as a trip relapses in the aftermath of the revolution citizens hopes that the government or will one day meet their demands for better welfare phasing away many egyptians remain unemployed and all struggling to find ways to make a living there has

a story about rebuilding that's been broken. their country may be in danger of crumbling but here they are rebuilding someone else's hundreds of thousands of egyptians are putting bricks to mortar for their neighbors future every few weeks another building goes up in a month with a toil nearly a quarter of a million egyptians are scattered throughout the kingdom next door but many shouldn't be here at all in the chaos and disappointment that followed egypt's revolution thousands of egyptians fled here to jordan with no visa and little more than the clothes on their back while it might still be too soon to say what will be the long term effects of the revolution no one here is in a hurry to return back home just like muhammad he sold his wife's jewelry and borrowed neighbor's money to pay for nearly one thousand american dollar work permit but it's long since expired now he's working on borrowed time the bottom line i can't afford to buy another work permit i left egypt because i want to eat

egyptian society is very divided and all of us here are printed on lower class we're not searching to be rich we just want food for families it's jordan's worst kept secret more than one hundred thousand desperate illegal egyptians lining the pockets of jordanian businessmen who exploit loopholes in the law has been is that there are a lot of people lineage of playing with papers that promise the best permission but then when the labor is come here they don't know what the permission is for exactly and who is even their boss it's corruption between from their gyptian side the laborers themselves the jordanian government because it gets a lot of mine from fighting this people and the business owners their own involved surprisingly jordan's labor ministry does not deny this but insists it is cracking down trying to organize on the time what with the kind of some of them. on the understanding that they are tourists and this is. but when they when they're each

prison lies within one of the largest bases of the nato led forces in afghanistan and later today revealed the obscure danger that exists that the soldiers themselves. dear mom i'm sorry that i had to do this i've been in so much pain in the past year that i can't take it anymore stomach in chest pain to be getting worse no doctor has been able to help me please know that i'll finally be at peace with no more pain i wish i could have had a wife it was. always pictured her being my wife and mother to my kids i love you all you all in heaven when your time come i'm going to meet jesus christ. thousands of u.s. troops in iraq received one of these drugs a drug called lariam and it may have prevented many soldiers from getting sick the question is whether or not soldiers were adequately warned about its rare side

effects serious life changing side effects. and let's get the latest a market action now from our business desk and marina is keeping track about what's new the sound. of the european markets open this hour but i'm afraid to say that it's a flat picture across the board it's not just the russian markets or the asian markets european investors also seem to be struggling to find the action and the might be in the absence of major news happen let's take a look at the latest figures and we'll see what i'm talking about as a consumer the just an hour similarly with the german banks but then again it is the first half hour session so it's early to say haven't said that it's already more than an hour and the boss of markets trade in session but still if we take a look at the russian figures will see that it investors are also silent again iraq said fine are actually here and five also oil prices are not helping their gains

for the r.t.s. and of my stocks at least because approve this hour so i'm expecting but again the oil prices are between gains and losses and now crude is trading at its highest level and almost a week so perhaps that is the push that investors. needed that even the russian voices i'm positive territory now why is crude trade in near the highest level in the week well that's because that's on speculation that china and the us will strengthen their economies even of further and that will basically create accounts of fact again signs of a slowdown and possibly a few of the man being shorts now what you're looking right now is gas and that's because russia is independent gas producers have been left without their main distributor that says the russian energy giant has stopped buying gas from other companies the newspaper says this way the monopolist aims to support its own production because of falling demand however independent firms will still be able to use gas from pipelines and gas to subsidiaries. all right currencies now

on a cycle of what's happening with the euro dollar and the ruble basically when it comes to the us the we can then i guess the u.s. dollar the ruble stay in firmly in this position and we can against both major currencies this monday now if we move on and take a look at the asian markets they are on their way out and ready to go home in fact they make a is already close that we see that it is flat as i mentioned earlier flat but a positive territory to counter that what do we know about beers in markets well first of all in china we had a report over the weekend that showed rising inflation and the slowdown in exhibits in the industrial sector also another report just came out that showed a wider than expected trade surplus for the month of august there were fewer imports but more exports that's how that happened in so export as was struggling today and that's because of a negative report showing a weakening economy now if we stay with

a talk about the asia pacific economic cooperation summit that of course was taking place all over the weekend as well the international business elite gather there and the main focus seems to be asia and invest in the asia pacific region and. will explain why russia has now set its eyes only. summit here in symbolizes the wind of change not just for russia but for the global economy so void yet another crisis of growth are needed and they 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 over russia's naturally turning to asia boosting trade in the pacific rim to twenty one percent. but the e.u. remains its main trade partner accounting for fifty one percent the president wants to very much trade was. concerned with the recent investigation into gas dominance

in eastern europe and. 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 that back in the days when they joined 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 that we should pay a little to assist this 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. on the sidelines of the foreign president vladimir putin held negotiations with new zealand to form free trade zones and although it may sound surprising as they're not exactly the most significant trade partners from moscow 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 protectionism. i thought and that's what i have for you this hour you know in general i predict pretty much a lackluster performance across the board for the markets there fortunately we'll see next hour then thanks for that marina and i'll be back in just a few minutes with the headlines just ahead.

it's. the. world. science technology innovation all the list of elements from around russia we've got the future covered. your mom i'm sorry that i had to do this i've been in so much pain in the past year that i can't take it anymore the stomach and chest pains have been getting worse and no doctor has been able to help

me please know that i'll finally be at peace with no more pain i wish i could have had a life with it was a bit always pictured her being my. wife and mother to my kids i love you all so you all in heaven when your time comes i'm going to meet jesus christ. thousands of u.s. troops in iraq received one of these drugs 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. to the boy. that it is. sure. you know the question we're going to. be.
