hey there tessa now venezuelans woke up today with a new leader how are they responding. i'm sorry i lost the connection. that's all right we're adding a little bit of technical difficulties hopefully we'll get tessa back in just a minute but let me talk for a minute about google chavez and what he is actually meant to venezuela he was actually in the power of venice with us since one thousand nine hundred ninety nine and nicolas maduro has a lot on his plate as i was saying earlier in order to really take over this country now he won by a very thin margin as i mentioned earlier a fifty percent margin to forty nine percent and it's really tight critics right now are actually asking for a recall and now as i mentioned. there's a lot on venezuela's plate right now obviously venezuela is in monumentally important when it comes to the oil infrastructure itself critics actually said that if that's would have won that election he would have essentially cut off oil to cuba which would have crippled cuba's economy considering the fact that venezuela is one of the few economies th

part is about the sound i rather windy day in brussels and tessa that we had now we're going to top it because i only three day i have been to being seen jacob said to kind of a fax a bank i got his expert analysis on the ground the dismal thing is. as always with these high unemployment rates a number of reasons the one and vested demise of course is the huge amount of sturdy being implemented you have a very clear divide between the north and the south in unemployment but also in growth we only three months into the new year and growth has already been downgraded in the most of the club med countries and similarly receding that even countries in the call i call it is now seeing growth coming off so it's a combination of bad economics it's coming combined with the fact that the lack of reforms and the ability to create new jobs so do you think that is perhaps not the way forward that because it's clearly not working will be very tempting to draw that conclusion but of course is not the case i think you need a deal measures. a sturdy but also to we're going to supply side of the econom

the militants from northern mali but some retreated to deserted hideouts in the vast area artie's tessa syria has the details they say though that they still plan on continuing double adoption of the four thousand strong military personnel who are at least on the ground and keeping these a one thousand troops they say will be part of a few sure you when a peacekeeping mission however this is in stark contrast to what first foreign minister a lot of five years had said in here in your week. regarding france's direct involvement it is only a matter of weeks later on comments barca but we have no intention of staying forever. now the french have gone into mali a warning against the threat of islamised extremism advanced europe no clearly any plan of a complete withdrawal is off the table now this one thousand troops that they plan to keep on the ground falls under a call made by u.n. secretary general ban ki moon in deploying about eleven thousand two hundred troops and one thousand four hundred forty three least on the ground in mali after major combat now bunking was planned also when he

that may be the least of the worries though in comparison to the president it's been said is artie's tessa's. it dominated headlines for much of two weeks a year reserved nation on the brink of bankruptcy the banks were closed cash rationed and capital controls put in place cyphers of those heavy losses which could rise to up to sixty percent on wealthier depositors in order to clinch a ten billion euro e.u. i.m.f. bailout last month it had however initially planned to would reduce a levy on deposits of less than one hundred thousand euros supposedly protected by state guarantees before backtracking in the face of widespread protests this has been a meeting that was protesters for the past few days it's just a few meters from parliament which is just over there but people's added voices did little to change the inevitable painful outcome for the country the general. view being communicated from here in brussels is that the cyprus is unique and the measures imposed on the country as part of that bailout package will not be used as a template for other troubled euro zone nations but not everyo

fact that the country's top electoral body has embarked on a partial audit of the votes cast artie's tessa siller is in caracas. you know that the order of the field position has been asking for it was agreed upon by the electoral council they say that they will conduct an audit on the forty six percent of the votes which have not been audited yet be opposition was asking for a full vote recount but the supreme court had already said that this just wasn't possible aside from the in one thousand nine hundred constitution and also everything the whole system is automated so what we're going to have is an audit now my thought was still inaugurated so he is the new president of venezuela the first one after fourteen years of legal charges but let's not forget that he won this on a very small margin while the far works were going all supporting we heard some of those up pots and pans banging in the background those are supporters of the protests and also there was a bit of a confusion that happened during the inaugural speech there was a guy a young guy who went on stage and tried to push off s

presidential vote showed the nation is essentially split down the middle let's get more now from artie's tessa cilia she joins us live from caracas so why did the opposition call off this rally. the opposition leader he basically said that he doesn't want to see any more violence and that he calls on just supporters to peacefully protest basically asking them to stay home and just banging pots and pans it was a very noisy evening tuesday night well initially they had planned to hold a protest in front of the electoral council in the city center but. he had banned any protests to take place in. stating a security reasons and so because google has been blaming the opposition for the violence seven deaths as you mentioned earlier but the us is saying that any violence that has happened it's the government who is behind it so they've been exchanging accusations now despite the ban in the city center we've seen reports that there are some people gathering in other parts of town to support herself. and some reports say that they're out to gathering now and wreaking havoc there maybe also some other

there's anger because nearly whole of the population doesn't want nicolas maduro as its leader auntie's tessa's hilary's gauging the mood in the capital caracas. the opposition is staunchly contesting the results of the presidential election the supporters of in the us had come out of the district some of them other were pro they were protesting against the results claiming that they are not ready to accept just as it says that he is not going to accept the results unless there is a recount as far as a protest you saw incidents of a stone throwing at the police use of tear gas and there may be more protest planned as opposition is calling for their supporters to go out into the streets and make a lot of noise and put pressure on having that recount and that audit actually don this is going to prove to be very difficult for me starting off the presidency the fact that there was such a narrow margin this just shows you that he's starting this presidency off with a very weak mandate you have essentially almost half of the electorate who who who is not before him and therefore he has a lot of chall

tessa what is the state of the protests right now and are they still going on is there any more information about the violence that took place and who did cause those. well you know i think post-election with such a narrow margin emotions were really running high so you had. supporters out on the streets you speak to people and they're very emotional about the results of the elections as far as the protests are concerned we saw violent ones in the two days that followed after the announcement on april fourteenth of that result and the government says yes indeed seven people had died and they were blaming. the opposition which could be to set any violence that you see on the streets actually is the government is behind this or the two men and of course through we accusations to each other we saw that during during the campaign and us about security has been stepped up but now the inauguration is coming from there dignitaries who are coming into town so there may be people who would like to go out and show their support for my little but came out on television in a press conference and called

i'm going to bring in john tessa, a senator from montana. always a pleasure.ou for joining us. >> thank for having me. stuart: you oppose this tax, don't you? >> oh, absolutely, i do. i think it's very, very bad policy. what we're talking about doing is montana, a state that has no sales tax, who has a budget surplus and has done a good job managing their money, now it's going to require our small businesses to basically fund deficits in other states and i think it's very, very poor public policy because it's going to throw a whole bunch of administrative costs that they can't absorb. stuart: i don't mean to be -- you are a democrat. i social democrats with raising taxes and get more money coming into the state and federal government. it's a bit unusual for a democrat to oppose this big new tax. >> no, i think what democrats stand for, they stand for folks who can balance the books and handle the money correctly and spend it on things that will drive the company and this does none of the things-- it's not going to create jobs, if it does, it's jobs within the

he is actually the older child of my daughter tessa who asked me to write "everybody matters" and thenittle droid. i had a kind of physical reaction. maybe some of you who are grandparents in the room will know what what i am saying. i somehow recalibrated and i now think 80 years or 100 years hence because i know that this is part of his life and now he will be joined by three of their grandchildren to in dublin and two of our older sons in barcelona so these four grandchildren ,-com,-com ma the other is now nine ,-com,-com ma will be in their 40s in 2050 which is a very key year when we talk about climate. they will share the world with with -- or maybe more. it's the fastest growth in population ever known. it will be a world where we will definitely have very severe weather shocks and problems with food security. i sometimes think what will they say about us? what will they say about the decisions that we take or don't take now? .. so we have a time and we should be seeing the most extraordinary leadership. the we should be seeing leadership talking to us about how we have change c
