indebted eurozone nations back on an even keel through bailouts and at times crippling austerity measures ireland became the first to leave the bailout program at the end of last year not before cutting thirty billion euro from the budget and seeing salary squeeze by twenty percent in southern europe in hopes of a light at the end of the tunnel and high especially for the generation growing up and the troika unemployment is not trivial to fall so we are going to be facing. a large number of young people in in countries like greece or spain youth unemployment is over fifty percent and these people have little prospect of getting a job and achieving some sort of economic security this is seen european lawmakers call into question the ability of the troika to deal with the scale of the crisis and to attack its methods the troika acts like a acts like

4:25 am
i know c n n m s n b c news. lately but the fact is i admire their commitment to cover all sides of the story. just in case one of them happens to be accurate. that was funny but it's close if it's true just might think. it's because one whole attention and the mainstream media works side by side the joke is actually on here. and our teenagers we have
4:26 am
a different brain. because the news of the world just is not this funny i'm not laughing dammit i'm not how. you guys talk to the jokes well handle them. so god the help to buy scheme for real estate which is a copycat of fannie mae and freddie mac. debacle which caused the sub prime crisis two thousand and seven the british energy corporations are going to take fracking even though in america it's been proven to be completely an economical and environmental disaster but they're going to do it here anyway because why nobody in the media here except for maybe george will be up over there to garden will say anything about the fact that this is an ecological disaster and more importantly an economic boon dog all that will increase britain's
4:27 am
debt too is even higher than it is right now the highest it's been a decade. hello and welcome to cross talk for all things considered i'm peter lavelle revolutionary care of with the illegal overthrow of the democratically elected government in ukraine the country stands at the abyss politically economically and even care a horribly strongly supported by the e.u. and washington the new rulers of my dawn are seen as ideological zealots can they reach out to all ukrainians or will we divide the country even more. to cross talk of bents in ukraine i'm joined by my guest amanda paul in brussels
4:28 am
she is a policy analyst at the european policy center we also have alexander me curious in london he is a legal writer and analyst and in moscow we cross to dimitri he's a political analyst with the voice of russia radio station all across talk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i very much encourage it alexander if i can go to you first in london. the government was supposed to be. forum today they're postponing it is this. a indication of what's going to come when we don't have unity even here we have never had unity amongst the opposition leaders and that's been a serious problem they have never been able to agree which of them leads the opposition movement and to make matters worse we now know the two of the most important opposition leaders mrs duma schenkel and mystic political have ruled themselves out ok i'd like to turn to our against amanda in brussels how do you see things playing out in care right now because we've seen is that the opposition is
4:29 am
having a very hard time finding some kind of unity how in the world if they can't find unity during a crisis situation that we have right now how can they reach out to the east that is watching this with a very wary eye well i would agree that historically. the opposition parties in ukraine have found it quite difficult to cooperate with each other but i still believe this time around we've seen a much greater degree of readiness to work together of course you could say the fact that they didn't agree this interim government it is would indicate divisions but i would also say that we need to be extremely careful in choosing the personalities who are going to be representative in this government because if we don't want a government that's filled with personalities from the past we need a new faces so i don't think we need to exaggerate the fact that it's taking a couple of extra days to put this government together ok dimitry it is
4:30 am
a crisis situation here that because three is only weeks away from default and it looks like the the western powers that are so gleeful about the illegal overthrow of this government are they going to be able to cough up the money to keep this economy going because if it doesn't do that then it's going to be a problem for everybody but first peter i would like to correct you these people are not their position anymore they are in in power. diffract oh at least a few people dollar to that they will be in power for the next few years because the e.u. and the united states very extremely quick in a recognize in their legitimacy all of these new leadership even though as you rightly said they deal between the un accord each additional was on they give even of policy not on kind in power over to these people and it's it's a scandal that the three foreign ministers all of big countries france germany.
