bankruptcy under full bloom for greece as coalition leaders fail to agree on a french multi-billion you are austerity package that the prime minister says is vital to rescue the crippled economy. also the sound of a deadly car bomb rocks the syrian city of aleppo shortly alter and all kinds of links militant pledge support for the syrian rebels as fears amount that the country's conflict is getting increasingly contracted by foreign forces. in the middle east to become the largest buyer of u.s. weapons we'll look at how they won a title cetacean is helping america's arms sales shoot a record by. breakaway cost of the region is two things

really gained sovereignty as a group of countries recognizing its independence proposed to remove all over signs many believe could threaten to escalate ethnic tensions. international news live from moscow this is us here with me thanks for joining us for us to getting a new vital cash injection from the e.u. for greece is far from a done deal leaders of the coalition government have failed to agree on stinging cost was roughly twelve billion euros that the prime minister insists are crucial to avoid bankruptcy but his allies in the government object to across the board cuts on wages and pensions and also criticize plans to trim disability benefits at the same time greece's foreign members who are currently in the country to assert its power. meeting the bailout terms also rejected parts of the austerity measures

with talks set to continue but the fiercest opposition the cards have. come from the greeks themselves asked to either. greek prime minister antonis samaras isn't sugar coating his message after the split between who can lead the hurt 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 their saloniki busiest market now like a ghost town ok costas has run this coffee shop since the one nine hundred seventy s. he lays the blame for the current troubles on a political class we are looking at the greek interest if the politicians don't

care about the people they care 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 a lot of short from face food and in the same time they increase taxes it's very very difficult to pay some bills for the war and for water from the fall of a food 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 work 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 we all thought to 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. lity towards tamara says plans even the harshest critics of the government fear that a return to the drachma would open a pandora's box with fresh financial woes but here is the bottom line is a must stay in the euro no doubt we have to see it is a simple as that going back to the old occurrence it will be fleet will. be children r t there's a lot of greeks. and the chorus of those blaming political not financial woes in europe for the spread of the economic crisis is growing and the asia pacific summit

in russia's far east over the weekend he's peaceful about brought together leading experts to discuss what's a while with capitalism and how to fix it and you can watch part two of the special panel here on r.t. later today. obviously. good news if it is. a question of the right guy with the. right. capitalism without bankruptcy is like christianity without. a come on route through a series 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 qaeda warns that his extremist group was

launching deadly attacks to help assad fighters and. members of the syrian social club x. party groups says the conflict in the country is no longer just a syrian revolution. it has turned into a more regional wider conflict. some sort of international war on syrian soil. i personally. witnessed first hand a demonstration on the seventh of may two thousand and eleven. for muslim extremists outside the syrian between london shouting very clearly islam love only and that doesn't need any explanation does it so it is not surprising what we see or hear in that they are jihadists who were coming into syria because most empowers have poor long time seen this conflict as the same model or the same you know viewing point just like they did with the understand three decades ago. the problem

we're having basically is that the took so long to acknowledge that you had used. you know element after i think it was too late the us might have abstained from supporting the syrian rebels militarily at least openly but it actively flooding the surrounding nations with weapons as they revealed that the middle east is now the leading by of american arms as fears mount that a conflict with the syrian government's main ally iran could be on the cards and his get a check on explaining. 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 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 the rive 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 f. 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 think 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 gaining peace between states in that region are driving these wealthy countries in the middle east to buy u.s. weapons. there is 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 it is hard to claim that arms sales is the end game for the us although he does profit handsomely from the sales in february nine hundred forty five president roosevelt at a meeting in egypt with our little girl as he's been 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 u.s. 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 had to ship hoping to win new business ties in the wake of the country's uprising and as the largest u.s. trade delegation ever to travel to the our wild they push for new markets comes as washington has sweetened the deal with a pleasure one billion dollars in debt already egypt's foreign policy has been largely in line with that of big laughs expressing sympathy for the uprising in syria and demonstrating support for bahrain's ruling family and journalists around

the pervert has broken extensively about developments in the our wild american trip to egypt has an agenda that stretches beyond the economy. his only hope is by the u.s. government although they are insisting the political aspect is a minor aspect of this move is not so 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 sure the morsi and his government no matter how we intended 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. and while the u.s.

comes up with vireos ways to put a chip in that chokehold people that are forced out of their homeland by their own glowing red plane to nearby countries to make ends meet that and much more coming your way in just a few minutes testing. the . mind. would be so much brighter if you knew about sun from finest impression. these friends starts on t.v. dot com. i said to an execution dates in believe me or just a one to two execution date is enough for anybody to go through more life to. you know more than fifty percent of the people here if you didn't texas are not. why

you know live in north darfur is larry. this is 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's a good time to go just walk it and i would lead them into this to the best chamber. come and stay until after they were dating.

so let's move on now this is the breakaways seven version of call so i will officially gain all the rights of sovereignty late on monday despite bill great refusing to recognize his independence and international group consisting of twenty five countries which did that last year also actually has a guy i should say is preparing to make it for now this means the end to western supervision something that sparked fears of ethnic serbs being prosecuted in the region but journalist and voice and moderate size it's a cosmetic move at all hardly a decrease foreign involvement tensions or have been constantly in a state of escalation since last since last years since the attempt of the forty's

to a certain troll of the northern part of the province and the 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 so all. 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 play and the u.n. mission and the nato so-called peacekeeping force has been there since one thousand nine hundred nine only 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 we've got plenty more stories for you on r.t. dot com if you've missed any on that like the drones getting the government over a barrel by invoking bad calls right to keep beer prices from sky rockets take.

most of that just to protect and a day traffic rules u.s. officials are planting down those guilty of running red lights including a police officer. and a video of an inventory of manhattan skyline spreads on the internet hadn't lied to find out how norm had to be artists to praise their intricate last. as aged relapses it's in the aftermath of the revolution that citizens hopes that the government will one day need their demands for better wealth are facing away many egyptians remain unemployed and struggling to find ways to make a living policy has a story about rebuilding walls been. 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. because i want to eat egyptian

society is very divided and all of us here are printed on our 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 in egypt playing with the papers they promise the best permission but then when the labor is come here they don't know where the permission is for exactly and who is even there it's corruption between from their gyptian side the laborers themselves the jordanian government because that gets a lot of mine from fighting with people and the business owners their own world 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 tourists. and this is legal but when they when they're each here

in the country they try to fit torques jobs and they kept looking for jobs all the time without invading. 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 we dollar cinta back across the border for now the risks far outweigh returning to a country where the prospects of work or stability or even gloomier policy are t.

. jordan. to some other top stories in brief for you this hour a peaceful march in chile's capital to remember victims of the military dictatorship of journo i guess though peter shea has ended with the violence and the number of arrests dozens of masked protesters barricaded there is surrounding santiago's general cemetery blocking streets and clashing with police officers responded with water cannons and tear gas no injuries have been reported. the u.s. has formally transferred control of the ground prison to are going off the facility holds more than three thousand taliban insurgents and suspected terrorists analysts believe the hand symbolic of the fate of inmates or may unclear including fifty foreigners not covered by their green meant the u.s. military still wants to run a section of the trail which has been labeled afghanistan has gone tyler was prisoner abuse and torture reported. around prisoner lies within one of the largest bases of the nato led forces in afghanistan and later today were revealed the

obscure danger that exists for 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 the stomach and chest pains you've been 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 life with it was. always pictured her being my wife and mother to my kids i love you all 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 is whether or not soldiers were adequately warned about it's rare side effects serious life changing side effects.

and time for a business of days and maria is joining us now live and looks like there's not much happening on the markets today why is that marina that's exactly right well that's because in the absence of any big news stories for that fact but investors are awaiting a lot of events this week for example because i can look at the european markets as i explained this on the wednesday germany's constitutional court is expected to rule on the legality all of the euro zone's the rest of us will be looking out put out now it's a later on thursday the u.s. federal reserve is supposed to announce its latest decisions and the policy actions and a lot of people are expectancy here about another round of quantitative easing so that's what investors want to see almost if that happens for now you can see the floats. and negative territory pretty much as we've been seeing for the past couple of hours now let's move on to a similar picture here as well as i said it's a lackluster performance across the board to see that the arts yes and seven almost

half of course on this hour when the comes to the myself it's a quarter of a percent now of course oil prices. i have a major effect on that and then mixed right now have a crude is trading at its highest level and almost there we like to see that in just a second there we go the lights with us fretting at ninety cents dollars per gallon and the brand blanked out around one hundred fourteen now why are we seeing these high prices that's because it's on speculation that the u.s. and china would do something to stimulate their economy to counter and slow down i would been seeing that may threaten fuel goodland now if they where from oil to gas but stay with russia here for a second one that's because the country's independent gas producers have been left with the main distributor that says gas from has stopped buying gas from other companies and the us the newspaper says this way the monopolist aims to support its own production because a fall in demand however independent firms will still be able to use gas forms

pipelines and sold gas through its subsidiaries. and a quick look at currency see where the euro dollar. will weaken against the us dollar and a similar picture with the ruble as it's weakening against both major currencies now if we take a look at asia where it's trading session is about to end for the nikkei it ended last hour and we have the hang sandwiches in the last seconds of trade we see that a flat picture there as well we had a couple of reports in china over the weekend i reports show that there's rise in the relation and the slowdown and then there and also just today we know that there was a trade surplus imports in china decrease and exports increase so there you have it now if we move on and take a look at tokyo stay with their year for a second quarters there as well so they were struggling after reports showed a weakening economy but also asia was the focus of the asian pacific economic

cooperation summit and russia's for east and that's because russia is right now actively seeking and looking for investment opportunities in the east and the middle east explains why and what that entails. the apec summit here and. the wind of change not just for russia but for the global economy void yet another crisis. 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. fifty one percent president putin wants to very much. concerned with the recent investigation into gas. and. i think the

main reason for this investigation is the difficult economic situation in the euro zone. countries and the problem is. when they join the european union liabilities to subsidize those economies but if someone in the european commission decided that we must assume. wants to maintain it. and things that we should. strive. for russia the apec summit is not so much about the business deals it's about building bridges on the sidelines of the forum 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.

well there all top i can lot of all soft wall speech he was just on the go on at stake and the russians will eventually. that is what they're a partner a corner of the russian they are consortium director back at the apec summit now another possible buyer all they. of course will be following this story for the very end now. that's a tough one thanks for that marina more from you in an hour and a half of the headlines mexico's lee's outlines of all the asia pacific gathering meant for his country.
