a marked anti-government mood. jo this government has come under a barrage of abuse. even as we speak, there are members of parliament within the coalition. his leadership has not been one of strength. that delay, a lot of people feel got ireland into the situation. the mood is very bleak here in dublin. >> a lot of people are extra imposed now.

are they happy to hand over the reigns to an outside body. >> a lot of people here are so disgusted that they feel the imf could make a charged statement. jo one has to wait and see what sort of negotiation tactic they will use in the form of a bail out. for now, the mood is very much against the government. >> the market is stabilizing, you'd say. rally is a big of a strong word. the reason being is just because we are seeing a bail out, the

problems have gone away. all eyes are on the question of who is next. who is in line thinking portugal is the one. they've already come out. let's look at what europe is doing. a bit of stablization and the basic funding, we don't have any of the fix problem. we are waiting for the four-year budget plan. >> we don't even have the final number. possibly going into storing up the banking situation. we haven't seen any details.

>> to ensure all parties will have electronic access in real time to documents, decisions, exhibits, transcripts for different languages. the regular industry is in charge of ensuring that these are publicized by way of public hearing and publication of transcripts. your work as journalists remains indispensable where these

investigations began. reducing the distance between the court's headquarter between the netherlands and the people concerned by the court's work. >> the public nature is one of the rights of the defense guarante guaranteed, as well as the fact that defendants are presumed innocent and entitled to a public hearing and to call their over evidence, call their own

witnesses and their own defense. they will carry out court advancing a month liam to cover the defense cost covered by the order of the judges to reimburse amounts. intended to reimburse the amounts in the future. >> giving a little bit of guidance as to how this trial is going to work. this is seen as the most important icc trial to date. he is charged with murder, rape

and more in the african province. >> something lighter. the atp world tour finals. when you think of tennis in london, you think of beautifully cut lawns and well-behaved fans. this is different. it's more like a rock concert. handy murray with a straight set. we are talking of a rock concert and the stars. winning his match, 6-1, 6-4. when you play ten matches

>> the stat u of christ that towers over rio. in poland, catholic priests have consecrated their own stat u of christ which they say is bigger. >> a new place of pill grammage. they came in the thousands to see this. christ the king, the giant figure. a potent expression of faith in this deeply catholic country. standing 33 meters, one for

every year of jesus' life. >> powerful and puzzled by the location. >> it will be a tourist attraction but they don't seem to have built any infa structure here. in ireland, it's surrounded by views and mountains. in poland, a less obvious view appeal. >> let the message flow throughout our homeland. with the faith of priests and citizens, we wish to introduce

christ into human hearts everywhere. >> paid foreign tirely standing as a reminder of poland's deep christian faith. >> an unusual new recruit to the japanese police force. a chiwawa has passed the test. its small size will allow it to squeeze into smaller spaces. >> our main headline for you, there is positive market reaction to the irish bail out. reactions are stable now. before the irish bail out,

greece had trouble. let's get more reaction. people reassured that the crisis won't now spread. the feeling is among some quarters that now that the irish have accepted the bail out, the focus will shift. the finance ministry has said that the agreement there would reduce uncertainty. not saying that the banking system is a problem but saying that the system doesn't have those kinds of problems but are committed to the whole range. they are very well aware that whatever the government does

doesn't necessarily have a dire impact. it is difficult to know how they will develop in the future depending on what remarks are made by officials in europe. >> a reminder of thescale of that portugal. >> the government says next year, it should get through and reduce it to 4.6. the problem is that economics are very weak. the fear is that the economy takes a nose dive in the new year, once that goes up and income tax increases as well. they'll find difficulty hitting the target. it is a bit on the edge and watching closely how it

develops. >> thank you, very much. we were hearing earlier about the police in new zealand. planning for a possible loss of life. there has bhn gh news from china where 29 minors have been rescued there. they drained an estimated 4,000 meters of wat for make that rescue possible. >> joining me from beijing with the latest. >> there was large tears as these minors were coming out of the shaft. 29 in total. it almost didn't turn out that way, on sunday morning, a dozen or so of minors managed to escape. seven rescue wshgers were trap the when they went into the

mine. all told, 2d minors have been pulled out. most of them were naked and then wrapped up in blankets. this is a good story for a country whose mining industry is the most dangerous in the world. 5 or 7 of rescuers got trapped themselves gives you some indication of perhaps how poorly prepared authorities are when it comes to these types of operations. more than 2500 minors were

killed in accident last year. they are making improvements. if you look at the figures over the past ten years, the number of casualties has seen a dramatic increase. authorities will take part from that. minors will say a lot more still needs to be done to improve the company's record. >> a light hearted remark has ended up costing him his job. the japan minister has had to redesign after joking that his job was easy. >> we have the details. >> he said his job was easy. the reason why was if he was

stumped bhi a question, he need only to remember two stock phrases. first was i don't want to comment on individual cases and the second, we are dealing with the matter appropriately based on the law and evidence. >> you have seen the formula question and answer sessions. the option said it was an insult and will file a motion. they threatened to boycott discussions and debate around the latest stimulus measures. today, he's had to say even though he was joking, he has to redesign. >> he believes children in kabul are safer than those in london. a representative was speaking

and in an interview broadcast the latest today. >> in the sun. a simple childhood pleasure. in the nine years, few children have known peace. even in this school, pupils are warned of the dangers of land minutes. but it is said that the lives of young afghans are getting better vm >> the taliban hide among the people. >> the kids i've spoken to do feel safe. their parents won't let them out in case a bomb goes off here. >> the children are probably safer here than in london and

new york and other cities. >> an analysis based on the fact that by afghan standards, ckabu is relatively safe. childhood innocence is a rare thing in this area. >> the comparison between kabul and london and unhelpful. >> i don't think the comparison is mepful. children in afghanistan are extremely vulnerable. 1,000 died last year in the conflicted conflict. we have to listen to the children in afghanistan. it is said that they are very

frightened. we know children are very scared. >> do you think his motive was to offer some assurance or it was a political move? >> i think he was trying to reassure children. we can't hideaway from the truth and facts which is it's one of the worst places to be born a child in the world. many children don't go to school. half of afghan children are mall nourished. many more die because of their fifth birthday. diarrhea. it's outrageous that children die from diarrhea. these diseases make it unsafe for children in afghanistan.
