while the government heralded arlen's exit from its international bailout as a success many find little to celebrate with others having long moved on in search of greener pastures people with skills people with jobs and i live in the country we thought that we put behind us the black plague effectively immigration out of the country and now it is back growing sectors of this economy which are importing workers from outside of violent on high wages with high skills and so forth completely deservedly but that is starting to draw these little bit of attention within the population as well the european commission statistics office figures show thirty five thousand more people left ireland and then arrived last year making arlen go from having had the highest net immigration levels in europe to the highest net emigration in just six years if we see what. i believe he said we want. you. to sleep here and when young emigrants do come back it won't come as a surprise if they're just back for the holidays like feel one who had just arrived from perth he left two years ago after completing a scie

and arlen's crisis has been declared over but for homeowners it's anything but. a couldn't do anything at all if you think i was this dish. i have no way i wish we speak to people whose lives have been shattered by the banks in a country where one in five mortgages are in arrears. we have never evaluation how much this is cost us in the motional and health terms. and welcome life from our studios in moscow you're watching archie international with me and he said now it's good to have you with us our top story the u.n. security council has unanimously approved a plan to double the number of peacekeepers in south sudan more than twelve thousand international troops and thirteen hundred police will be protecting civilians in the african state which is seen deadly clashes break out between rival armed factions over the past two weeks are reports now from new york. the security council after a meeting also condemned the fighting and violence against civilians and ethnic communities that have caused hundreds of deaths across south sudan and raise concerns the world's n

hello welcome to worlds apart this year marks fourteen years since arlen joined the european union but you don't see much liberation here and that may be due to the fact that few have paid a higher price for this integration than they are of people each one of whom already contributed almost nine thousand yours in taxes to effectively safeguard the euro was that worthwhile to discuss that i'm now enjoyed by the country's minister for european affairs pascal donahue mr donahue thank you very much for your time i know that when arlen was celebrating a brief thirty if thirtieth anniversary of joining the euro there was this whole program of exhibitions and conferences to celebrate the occasion but we don't see. that level of celebration this time around and i wonder whether it is due to all this that.

and arlen becomes the first state to officially break free from the euro zone bailout program milestone on its road to financial recovery. this is actually coming to you live from the russian capital i'm marina joshua welcome to the program. ukraine's president has called for a stop to any forcible action by police and activists and he also wants those arrested during the protests in kiev to be granted amnesty president's victory on cob which made the concessions after holding talks with the opposition over the crisis that's gripping the country but refused to dismiss the cabinet right now you're looking at live pictures and sauza and start gathering in central kiev as you can see in support of the president and it once again there's a live pictures coming out of a capital where several hundred thousand people are expected to show up it's taking place just meters from b. opposition demonstrations are just like here chefs he's in kiev and takes a closer look at how. the revolutionary leader is affecting every day long. the korean capital has been in a protest mode for more than two weeks

you know not since zero is i'm going to say that i think i think on the one hand yes arlen does has to take the arj people have taken an extraordinary amount of pain probably too much pain in my opinion but it was the opinion for example of joseph stiglitz the nobel prize winning economist who thinks skinny who thinks that they are people who were made to bear an unfair burden by the austerity policies that were that were forced upon them and the decision to let the financial terrorists get away with one hundred thirty billion in about that so i think. i think the situation in arlington is not something that's going to change very quickly i think we're looking at a lost decade in orland and i think as long as issues like immigration are running rampant i think you're going to see a very very slow recovery for a country that's taking a battering from the world economy got to have across a artie's news editor he's now going to do an hour is down three go. thank you so you know it's time he was very much. the global economy struggles with excessive debt to russia is playing the heroes so

and by by bailout shackles story says a man and hard work helps arlen to shake loose of the financial dick todd's but there's still a way to go together country's debt and show. what an r.t. international coming to you live from moscow with me marina josh welcome to the program political battle lines have torn ukraine's capital into while thousand strong crowds keep off the air anti-government protests activists are also gathering to support president victory on a cottage are peaceful scott walked along the front lines of both rallies. you can see the close proximity between the two opposing rallies right behind me is independence square which has been the heart of the opposition movement for the last number of weeks now you can see the barricades that have been built by the protesters and reinforced in the last couple of days but if we pan around to the left hand side now this is european square and this is the scene of a rally in support of the president where you can get a sense of exactly how close the pro and anti government supporters are the line of police separating the two ca

and arlen's crisis has been declared over but for homeowners it's anything but. i couldn't do anything at all if you think i was this dish. i have no way i wish we speak to people whose lives have been shattered by the banks in a country where one in five mortgages are in arrears. we have never evaluation how much this is cost.

arlene will would itself be quote shackles of the troika on sunday and will wake up on monday as a quote european country standing on equal footing a confident claim by prime minister kenny ahead of the country's official exit from its bailout program for eighty five billion euros it cost the irish three years of painful austerity higher taxes slashed minimum wage which has since been raced back high youth unemployment and another wave of irish immigration i'm not sure that the hard ideological line of austerity which was coming forth from europe was a good way to irish people would be to nice to see the end of the troika to see the opportunity for a street gang or economic sovereignty to be able to make our own decisions in relation to our future the government here is touting the exit from the bailout program as restoring economic and financial freedom but no one here is under any illusion that that exit would also mean an end to hardships or complete release from austerity while the idea of possibly having more control over their destiny as a nation is psychologically uplifting people

essentially gave the initiative to your france and the united kingdom why is arlen so passive on those issues of war and peace especially given your unique experience. your question base based on two premises start are wrong again the first of premises that the european union was involved in the policy decisions that led to some of the countries further but it's a different story there's a difference between european countries and the european union did european countries have decided not to give compton seat to european union regarding where they put their arm use for this debate on the it is a very or if. only you see you can't blame the european union for using power for not using power if that doesn't tough i mean you're correct to say that member members of the european union talk different stances in relations to reach as i am asking with iowa's has never voiced either luciferian or at least will guarantee its expertise ensure yes but. that's wrong though ireland is a neutral country precisely because of our history we've decided dot. we believe it's the right thing for our count

i don't know this country see of spain is starting to be back in the game i mean arlen this starting to be back in the game united states they have created an employment is going below the seven point two percent and creating jobs every mom's and so now we need france to be back in the game so why is it longer and more difficult in our country i don't know i don't know there is do you know there is not a mirror concern lucian and there is no other explanation specialists for that and many people much more intelligent than me and special is the media are working on that they can and cannot find a solution so i cannot give an explanation of what i want is my country to be back . i just want to touch upon woman and politics theme one more time but precisely in france i know that being a mayor of paris is a stepping stone for many presidents of france now in the coming election in paris two women will be fighting for the position did this woman have any chance in your opinion of becoming presidential candidates one day. i hope so i really hope so look at the united states hillary clinton

commission for example of the troika are still there they still have a very strong influence of what arlen can do there is a warning that was issued from brussels last week when a draft budget was revealed from the from dublin and european commission wanted audience to increase their crops to be an increase were being made european commission is looking for to know how we can become one catalyst some sort of still roosevelt smallest era to be more more coats and you know more. more social and happiness yet from our hearts ache for the average us argument yet it's still something you see so the general view the positive view the island as opposed to boys for. instance oh it's i got it i think i think on the one hand yes arland has has had to take the large people have taken an extraordinary amount of pain probably too much pain in my opinion but it was the opinion for example of joseph stiglitz the nobel prize winning economist who thinks excuse me who thinks that they are people who were made to bear an unfair burden by the the austerity policies that were that were forced upon them in the
