financial institutions are in their eyes being mismanaged also. drawing people's anger has been the latest big is coming out so we're gonna see unemployment in the euro so now we're hearing all of a staggering nearly twenty million people out soup work inside the countries that make up the mother tree union just twelve just over twelve percent of the population now to find out just why people are here in front good to demonstrate i'm joined by contadina principle of the left policy in germany the student wing of the left thank you very much for talking to me. why are people coming out in such numbers to to but there are i think what is happening here in frankfurt today is there are twenty million people out employed in the eurozone especially young people we understand that there are no solution no national solutions to this crisis we understand that there has to be international solidarity and

international strabo if we act the banking crisis and there are seventy politics that have been completely destroying the social states around and around europe do you think it's a concern amongst the young that those levels of unemployment that we seeing in the southern european countries like your own could eventually migrate to the problem yet so it's already happening it's i mean germany is not a paradise in europe anymore that. the wages in time an extremely low compared to that for the t.v. level and at the young people i mean two thirds of students have to work in terms of finance their studies people have very very bad working conditions they were job and they're in very very few. of the social statement i mean it still exists in a lot last forever if we don't do anything today in offense before the. the student wing of the left body in germany thank you very much for talking to me to put some of those figures into a little bit more context twenty million we're talking about the population of a

a large european nation all out of work and that's being coupled with just recent news of a rise in inflation around the eurozone most most notably when it comes to food just last month alone the price of the food rising by three point three percent so all of these problems seem to be increasing and that's why we're seeing more and more people coming out to show just how unhappy they are with the current situation . michael emeralds from the european financial bloc i'm amused as says the underestimate seeing and frankly it's just the beginning of a global uprising against financial tyrants and i think this is one step more towards in the euro zone the eurozone you has nothing to do with democracy anymore and what i fear most is that all this crisis is you a crisis leads to a structure that's which are far far away from democracy i mean i don't want a eurozone boss i want somebody whom i can believe whom i can trust and who i'm

also able to elect but what's going on at the moment is put people in front of us like in the former you do since our politicians and to pollute people besides what's going on i think that's not good for the future take also the japanese take america united states of america fifty million food stamps there this is not a no sign so we are we have all of the same problem and maybe the occupy and these protests that we see are only the beginning of a vast protest and demonstration all over the europe all over europe but also all over the world in jan and united states as well. well discontent agrees on the streets of europa they're winding crags on the political level and the latest round brussels have been accused of a land grab complaint coming from the u.k. after the european commission took the country to court to defend the rights of the e.u. citizens living in the country it claims britain is discriminating against people

from the other e.u. countries while london says it will find every step of the way to protect its own laws artist has a zillion reports. the european commission is once again looking more closely at the affairs of its member states not one that's making particular noise especially among the citizens of that country is the commission's decision to lodge a case against the u.k. if the european court of justice because the commission says that the u.k. has the discriminatory against nationals of other e.u. countries in receiving welfare now there's already been reaction from the u.k. particularly angry ones from the government i want to from the work and pensions secretary who says that he will want to cave in he says a brussels is once again launching a land grab and over reaching its areas of responsibilities and meddling into the affairs of national governments now we have spoken to a legal expert to explain to us why the commission has done what it has the commission can start an action against member states that do not for treaty

obligations we have an article in the treaty on the functioning of the european union specifically for that action this is a case where the commission has found that the u.k. is not fulfilling its we know the statements of cameron we know that he wants to have a referendum in two thousand and seventeen you want to renegotiate the treaty that's i mean the british government in the past has criticised the court of justice but the the law is there the law is respect to this latest move by brussels has once again brought to the forefront issues like sovereignty of member states immigration or the pressure put on social welfare systems the very issues that really have led to would increase and support for euro skeptic parties and countries like the u.k. now can the commission is looking also at another country spain it says that it has received complaints of the e.u. insurance health card which is supposed to entitle e.u. citizens to free health care in public hospitals while they're traveling to other countries within the block and it has been refused by some spanish hospitals so

this is once again an issue of decisions made and agreed upon here in brussels and the implementation across the block so one the one hand you have the commission maintaining that it's simply implementing the rules on the other you have. ization is a brussels is once again dipping into the affairs of national governments and in the context of the great economic crisis and very public displays of social dissatisfaction this is yet another stress test for the e.u. as a tries to move forward reporting from brussels i'm tosser cilia later today met skies and stacy head but look at some of the unconventional ways in which greeks are hoping to dig their way out of that debt crisis. the labor camps for poor taxpayers so if you owe back taxes and you don't have any money to pay it well the government is looking for an army camp in the attic or region two people who have debts to the tax authorities serving their sentence confirm the deputy minister for justice in the greek parliament now he's saying this is

a more humane solution because they're building these unique death camps death camps at a former army base but there won't be any rapists and murderers and other sorts in there so it will just be these bad but i sure go in that this is compare and contrast here's a country like iceland maintain its sovereignty number one and then recapitalized and their smooth sailing toward growth period with their currency intact unemployment is looking good greece unfortunately is locked into the euro and they're just they've been taken over they become a vassal state from the i.m.f. and the m.f. and the troika and these global institutions so they unfortunately lost their sovereignty. street protests saying golfing turkey what started a few days ago as a peaceful environmental rally has snowballed into the most fiesta spray of the

country has seen in the as a dozens way in just a police line to disperse the crowd to talk in a symbol and that heavy handed response a trait that is in several cities now these are live pictures a streaming from is still bold the initial protests was prompted by government backed plans to demolish in the center of istanbul to build something more sins than it's grown into an occupied style rally against a fleming the government in the capital police also used to i guess to push back protesters who were trying to reach the headquarters of unwittingly justice and development conti. and occupy movement activists told oxy that public and get into a key has reach a boiling point. i would say that the people of turkey have a long struggle of struggling against their domestic go pressers as well as the bankers and the corporations in the western countries wong oppressed and exploited

down their revolutionary people who have long opposed and fought against exploitation and it's not a surprise to me that they continue to fight back and fight for the rights of the people the current government of turkey is largely a puppet of the western banks of turkey is actually a member of nato and the policy is carrying out by the government of turkey are seen as largely being policies that serve the the bankers and the corporations on wall street and in london and also go to aid israel and they don't aid directly the people of turkey and they don't practice solidarity and ultimately the people of turkey see that it's not in their interest that the policies coming out of the turkish government at this time are not in a meritorious it's in the interests of the rich and they're fighting against them it's a very you know economically desperate situation for millions of turkish people there's high unemployment there's poverty and that's causing the people to go out into the streets and demonstrate you know the. that's that's the that's that's the powder keg that has been lit and we're seeing the explosion now. and i was at our t.

that man three years ago now the u.s. is reportedly working via the czech republic mission in syria to obtain more information about mansfield but this is not the first case of an american fighting in syria earlier this year eric harroun a former u.s. soldier made headlines when he posted videos of himself online in which he appeared to be fighting with rebel groups holding weapons and driving with fighters through contested parts of syria. your days are numbered you're going down in flames you should just quit now while you can and leave. you're going to die no matter what where you go we will find you and kill you ironically the u.s. state department recently demanded that hezbollah immediately withdraw its fighters from syria saying that their involvement on the side of president assad signaled

watney of the war but in the meantime the u.s. state department it seems can't keep track of its own citizens involvement in the civil war reporting from new york bring up or not partake in the news of the westerners killed or fighting for the syrian rebels a backs up a recent study that showed hundreds of europeans have traveled to syria since the start of the civil war to fight against president assad's regime of the is the largest number believed to have come from the u.k. and the latest incident involving an american woman shows that the conflict is getting more internationalized says stephen zunes a professor of politics at the university i'll send francisco. well there have been armed fighters coming in know more and more the majority of people the armed resistance of course are syrians but increasingly we are seeing some westerners involved as well. you know this is it is fairly unusual though to actually have americans coming in in fact ironically just as there are some elements within the

u.s. government pushing for greater u.s. involvement support the rebels we have other branches the government that have actually been no intercepting in prosecuting americans that have sought to join some of the more extreme elements of the opposition with a lifting of the e.u. embargo with a lot of domestic pressure against the obama administration which up to this point has been some reluctant to get more involved i'm afraid we are going to indeed see more and more western intervention in a greater and greater internationalization of this. protests and care just on the largest gold mine turned violent as walking through as a lot of political turmoil well look at what's behind the demands of the protesters that's just ahead. and say easy access to pirated music and movies could soon be a thing of the pauls day in russia as the government unveils its plan to slap five of the legal file sarah small and that off to the softly.

that when they do try to refuse the process of having a tube repeatedly falls down their throat that the doctors say norry those issues and they often are done that in violently in an imposed treatment on them they describe this treatment which involves achieving falls through their nose and down the road as abusive and extremely painful the letter of finishes of by accusing mel example forming an advocate of treatment of experiments and putting their duty to the military of both of their duty as doctors earlier we talked to richardson and i'm sure knew for a good time what did to me who described what her client is being subjected to. if you do nice a really attempting to have treatment be restored to them as human beings and rather than being punished and treated like animals i have had my client tell me many times they treat animals better than they are treating the detainees my client

protesters attempted to storm the mine in eastern kurdistan resulting in violent clashes with riot police at the site dozens were wounded including protesters and police exchanges of rubber bullets stun grenades and of stones one police bus was set on fire another was completely destroyed a state of emergency has been declared by the government in kurdistan these follow earlier protests where protesters came to try and blockade the mine and cut the power to it earlier the canadian company centerra gold which owns the mine say's these actions are illegal but the protesters have a variety of demands of their own ranging from the redistribution of some of the wealth from the mine to the state's budget increase social benefits nationalisation and concerns about the local ecology and lack of infrastructure the mind itself

which brings about twelve percent in two stones of the money has been the subject of heated debate in may two thousand and twelve a similar protest your creations of a mind that was just one of a number of similar kinds of protests and the government very nervous about these kind of situations because of political unrest in the country in recent years ethnic uzbeks and code is plash in the south of the country in two thousand and ten and those clashes followed the overthrow of the president also in two thousand and ten in a short but violent revolution. russians who enjoy under strict id music and movies downloads could be in shock that congress ministry of culture has threatened to punish online pirates with fines of up to thirty thousand dollars r.t. if you go up is going to explain why the government is ready to take such drastic measures. everyone likes

music but far from everyone likes to pay for it and why bother so many different online file swappers and torrent websites can offer your favorite for free online poignancy has become so widespread in russia even experienced and internationally playing bands have long stopped counting on any serious profit from the seals there . well for russian people it's kind of obvious to download music for free now on the internet and they don't have. such thing in their mentality as if you're a support. artist who like you. records online buy c.d.'s vinyls and stuff like that so. this is not happening here how do you end up making money. concerts according to official statistics the shocking ninety nine percent of online media content in russia is counterfeit and nearly seven out of ten citizens openly admit they download for free when the social mogul movement

the financial losses the just the big is the black market itself and not only for cinema but music literature everything connected with intellectual property it's simply impossible to calculate how much we will lose until it's legalized. the illegal media market doesn't just sap the entertainment industry's profits but it's also affecting the way theatre projects are financed it's no secret a big blockbuster movie needs a big budget the decorations alone need sufficient investment of both craft and cash to completely transport the audience to a whole other reality but right now in russia this cinema magic is a largely possible due to state funding since private investors are mostly scared away by piracy. last year alone the russian government invested over two hundred million dollars in the film industry but even that level of investment struggles to tempt audiences back into theaters and away from the pirates. now the president is

getting involved looking for ways to legalize the content without harming internet users personal freedoms for media bosses a lot at stake plus they feel a little skew we believe that without piracy films will be able to return twice more investment state and private will say one month after a movie premieres in cinemas it could be released on to the web for free but with adverts and legalize the. parliament is set to. view a new and finally see draft bill that punishing all internet users not only those uploading illegal content downloading it as well but that's not the end of the story a lot more is in the frame to ensure the pirates don't get the happy ending you go to school for to moscow. and a couple of minutes aren t. meets the director of a very special and that is that's just ahead stay with us. a

u.s. senate committee has passed a bill that if signed by obama will allow the u.s. to put a lot of weapons into the hands of syrian rebels the seems rather odd because many of the factions that are revolting seem like bad people to be arming in fact one rebel faction al nasra which according to the guardian is an islamist organization with links to al qaeda is quickly becoming the most powerful rebel faction of all of them the b.b.c. even declared that al nasra has been designated as a terrorist organization by the u.s. government itself has it started something like a bad idea to ship weapons into syria on american taxpayers' dollars yet let's just pretend that somehow all these weapons will magically not fall into the hands of al

nasra well the free syrian army is that much better they seem perfectly happy to use rape and beheadings and genocide against christian alawite minorities with great glee to get what they want arming radical groups always has blowback if you remember back to just the one nine hundred eighty s. the u.s. funded and armed the tele band and those mujahideen fighter guys and look how that turned out the u.s. government seems way too eager to arm radical foreigners and disarm average americans when they should be doing the exact opposite. but that's just my opinion .
