a very warm welcome to this special edition of european journal. we want to take you on a journey across croatia, a country with a turbulent history. this region around the coast once belonged to the state republic of venice pier it austrians ruled here later -- venice. austrians ruled here later. croatia is giving up some of its sovereignty again now voluntarily by joining the eu. many croatians have mixed feelings, even if accession means an economic boom and even more tourists. >> she drives home, inland on the peninsula. the restaurant owner was out buying flower in a neighboring town. he is one of the 25 citizens of the smallest city in the world. >> i'm really glad to live in such a special community. so many people from all over the world are very eager to visit. >> it was first mentioned in a document from the 12th century with its tower and church. it has all the trappings of an old city. the people here who are catholics continue to practice ancient rituals. tally sticks are used once a year. each voter carves a notch on the stick of his

european countries, including eu offices in washington. this is the european council. surely there are announces that perhaps the prime minister can united states has been doing. >> i think the same thing. publicly and in the council, i do not comment on national- security matters. it is important to remember that our services operate under the law and we do not use cooperation with foreign services to get around this in the u.k. and it is worth remembering that the intelligence and security gathering that we do is a huge benefit to those partners, including many in the european union that we cherish. it helps to keep them safe and us say. safe, and we should praise what they do on our behalf. >> how will the women in afghanistan be represented in talks with the taliban? advances in the right for education for girls and women will be sustained in the 2015 settlement and thereafter? >> the answer to the question is afghan government are not that any discussions need to proceed on the basis of the constitution, which received some safeguards for otherit is important to n

union have their own spy agencies in the european union has interpol but it's the european union doesn't have a spying agency you know and they probably never thought they might need one bless them so first takeaway there is i think the e.u. has been absolutely humiliated as a. in its illusion to be a major negotiation block on the world stage secondly you're never going to know if i how can we ensure that the u.s. rolls back. if we do believe john kerry would you believe barack obama would you believe a word statement the kinds of things that we saw coming out from google and yahoo about backdoor entry and specific kinds of entry into their server farms you know there is you know not the point the point is you never know about anything surely we as citizens are it seems are so disempowered in this day and age and as high technology day and age where governments have so much more control and power in fact to listen in on us then these are for example during the cold war world war two when spying was a lot more ok and at least publicly acknowledged today you know yeah i agree with ivor i

>> the european authorities are now trying to do that. german standards should be european standards, said the home affairs minister. now they are trying to get through negotiations with american counterparts, and that could be a problem because americans are not very eager to adapt to european standards, so there is a long way to go. the new organization will not be in place before 2014. >> are the europeans afraid of the u.s.'s ability to spy on us so well? >> yes, and rightfully so because europeans are very eager to protect their data now. the scandal was a wake-up call for europeans. now they want to tackle the problem swiftly. the big question is -- will the

it absolutely clear that our position as european parliament and more especially is the european left group is that snowden should be given asylum even in europe or anywhere else in the world because we do not consider him a trade or we consider him a hero he's the man who has warned people that their fundamental personal rights the rights to privacy are being violated by the united states and others and we think that if we have to fight criminality and terrorism we should do this within the legal framework by respecting human rights and not become a criminal it's ourselves therefore the whole affair research shocking affair for us would perhaps have a different understanding of those united states as to what a human rights are we consider can i go right ahead i'm sorry i was i'm i'm sorry sort of interrupt you but when you talk about the issue of human rights or let's just bring on one more angle here when it when all of this was first coming out about edward snowden there were many european leaders who hailed him as a hero but then after perhaps having a behind closed door telephone

together we know that the european treaties the lisbon treaty for example commits the european union to working hand in glove with nato so this in ascension not really come as a surprise to anybody. john locke lend a director thought is at the institute of democracy and cooperation in paris mr locke and thank you very much thank you well the head of the mission from they believe an embassy in vienna has given r.t. his reaction to the forced landing on the president's plane and he says it's absolutely unacceptable to treat a head of state in this way. truly this goes against the practice of cooperation and quick existence between countries this goes against international conventions and critiques which goes against international law and all the rules that have been established over a long period of time this shows disrespect for other countries independence it was a private plane it was not commercial and there was a high ranking official believe in precedent on board and yet the flight was delayed and suspended because of suspicions that unfounded and the plane was grounded for fourt

so i was thinking even of the european community or the e.u. cease to exist globalization is something much bigger and deeper and wider than us it's an irreversible person so it isn't like they go into games to flow things with this whole borders thing and then it completely cools no no i don't agree that go globalization is a backward step but nobody ever said it was something we couldn't monitor all the countries in the world apart from the e.u. defend themselves against globalization saw they try to keep it in check they control it they put voters on imports they put customs duties on things to defend their products and the economic factors that are essential to their independence were the only ones who don't do it and so consequently it's not about denying that globalization is happening it's about getting france into a position where it can defend itself against globalization and to set some playing rules there's not a single game in the world that doesn't have rules and today globalization in the e.u. is completely deregulated and i mean

spying on european institutions. meanwhile washington remains tight lipped was the only reaction stating that every country is committed to protecting its national security. and protesters in egypt ransacked the headquarters of the ruling muslim brotherhood in cairo after millions turn out to demand president morsi renounce power by tuesday. doesn't go fix a walk without. fear is an all out bloody conflict are banned by the muslim brotherhood's vows to react after the save the opposition crossed the red line of violence.

being involved in the european union it supports the european union cogic and the european union is not viable to the united states it is or it is a partner and they cooperate on imposing sanctions on various regimes around the world even though their legal basis for doing so is highly questionable the european union does seem to do the bidding of the united states of america which really is an infringement of various other countries soften t. and of course shows that use not really independent in terms of its own foreign policy and seeks to bind to the foreign policies of other member states in europe and control what they're doing which is anti democratic and course really does go against the principles of many other nations but only out of hand snowden has incited a global scandal betrayed his country done damage to its image as a washington's ally shouldn't the e.u. help catch him. well it's interesting to say that snowden has created an international scandal most certainly has but whistleblowers always do he's hasn't passed their secrets to the enemy he's not working for a fore

so i was thinking even if the european community or the e.u. cease to exist globalization is something much bigger and deeper and wider than us it's an irreversible perseus so is it likely going to games to flow things with this whole border thing and then it completely cools no no i don't agree that globalization is a backward but nobody ever said it was something we couldn't monitor all the countries in the world apart from the e.u. defend themselves against globalization saw they try to keep it in check they control it they put voters on imports they put customs duties on things to defend their products and the economic sectors that are essential to their independence are the only ones who don't do it and so consequently it's not about denying that globalization is happening it's about getting france into a position where it can defend itself against globalization and to set some playing rules there's not a single game in the world that doesn't have rules and today globalization and the e.u. is completely deregulated and i mean that we see t

>> the european authorities are now trying to do that. german standards should be european standards, said the home affairs minister. now they are trying to get through negotiations with american counterparts, and that could be a problem because americans are not very eager to adapt to european standards, so there is a long way to go. the new organization will not be in place before 2014. >> are the europeans afraid of the u.s.'s ability to spy on us so well? >> yes, and rightfully so because europeans are very eager to protect their data now. the scandal was a wake-up call for europeans. now they want to tackle the problem swiftly. the big question is -- will the americans play along? >> how likely is it that americans will play along? >> europeans want to connect the data protection issue with the free trade deal currently in negotiations, and they say to americans that if they get their data protections, they will give in to some demands in the free trade deal negotiations, so it may be a tit-for-tat, but nobody knows if congress or th

might have a little tick through a sweep of european offices. all over his face. he hasn't said a word. the issue with john kerry on the sidelines of a security conference in southeast asia today other than that we've heard almost nothing from brussels or maybe they knew about it but other than these very make statements which are kind of used to getting from from the. p.r. machine anyway so i think i think there's a there's a genuine sense of betrayal i think that's going to filter into the relationship and i think people like barroso and those guys who are key players in the transatlantic relationship i think they're going to be under real pressure from the lawmakers who are operating beneath them of the european system to try and sort their act out and try and stand up to the states a little bit more i do want to broaden the conversation actually and bring in another guest that we have for you a member of parliament rebecca harms she's the co-president of the green flash e.f. a group and she's on the line from stroudsburg now ma'am most count

process about which they are transferred which the european restaurant allows. certainly this is a concern because the u.k. judicial system works in a very different way to many member states of the european union and we feel that the u.k. should have the freedom to choose whether to extradite these individuals to the e.u. or not well this is just one of those regulations but looking at it on the whole it will be analyzed later on if indeed the u.k. opts out and eventually may opt in again so wouldn't opting out right now just create another barrier wouldn't it really make it just another hurdle to get through will indeed we look before the. european union because we are concerned that the future government whether it be labor conservative or any other color will actually go into these protocols and expose british nationals to experiences that they do not want and would not be held in the k. and ultimately this is something that would not happen we would not be hope. in to many of these regulations if we were outside the european union completely but there is th

capital straight to our headlines for you right now believe it was left outraged after a number of european states refused to let a plane carrying its president. space all because of rumors that surveillance was a blow edward snowden may have been on board let's get more on this right now of course live to watch this going off more on this. good morning to you isn't this all going just a little bit too far i mean here we are basically denying refueling to an elected president. well absolutely evil morales was flying back home from the major gas supplier summit in moscow on his plane and when it needed refueling portugal and france denied landing and actually did reach a point when the plane began dangerously of running out of fuel and they had to conduct an emergency landing in austria and france of first said that it was due to technical reasons but then it was then it turned out that it was because of rumors that edward snowden may be on board something which is denied by. the president's staff and people on the plane it's actually confirmed by the austrian foreign minister that snowden i

>> the european commission and european council are also taking a strong line on this.he president of the european commission has said that the report is extremely disturbing. and if true, then they obviously have serious and important concerns, he said. on monday, for example, we know that he ordered officials to carry out a sweep to try to inside of faxugs machines that have been monitoring e-mail traffic -- traffic and internal memos, trying to get them cleaned out of the system. the european union president has called for a cease and desist on this kind of bugging. clearly there is great concern. europeans are making the point that they are longstanding allies for a long decades with the u.s., so why is the u.s. treating them like enemies? they are also making the point that this important agreement requires trust and until they get clear, explanations and clarifications, the whole question of trust is in the balance. >> jackie, thank you. says theyoup in syria have killed figures in damascus, saying that this shows a car bomb attack in the capital. the area contain

you know i just only think that european union the european countries don't have the full lid of. independent foreign policy and they're not able to adopt a position independent from the washington's one this is a disgrace because we are. not real economic power we are political and diplomatic very small we don't have the courage to adopt. fault all this is that goes that favors our interests southern thank you very much and if your thoughts on the electorate university joining us live here on. what would be but even playing ground as part of the u.s. hunt for snowden will washington be held to account in breaking the set looks at where the unfounded suspicion could lead to. i guess my question is who that have all those obama think it is only after a week of declaring that he wouldn't scramble jets for a twenty nine year old hacker obama forces down the plane of a foreign head of state that's ludicrous i mean humiliating just imagine if another country demanded air force one to land mid flight based on an on founded suspicion as centrally the u.s. is saying we can do whatever the

well the shameful situation is due to the fact that european governments and european politicians european leaders are slavish. to american policy they all are and that's why they they handle this matter in this way. and just days after europe was expressing very vocal actually anger with the u.s. thrashing repercussions of the snowden spying revelations all of those threats just populism. well of course this is a there is a paradox between the fact that during the last twenty years europe your population has been submerged by political silence from all over the world which mostly are very political asylum where is now there is a matter of a clear political asylum that should be hosted instead of. all over europe so in the debate between security and. privacy it is clear that the united states government went way too far in the direction of security and privacy that was put on the table by mr snowden should be should include the license to conclude that this is because this is a political matter and that he should be hosted as it was silent so why would france on the view risk a continenta

of course shows how the european hudl jumps to the american circus masters command the european governments are very obviously under the some of the americans they have shown this very flagrantly and the reason why i say it's symbolic is that it's the abuses which snowden has revealed is only one side of the coin the other side of the coin is that there has been a massive increase in cooperation in intelligence sharing between the united states and its european union allies in the last ten years and certainly since nine eleven so it's entirely appropriate if you like. the whistleblower should have been attempted to be caught by european union countries because the problem that he has revealed is concerns intelligence sharing between the european union and america as well as the increase of espionage by the american security forces france is a big forefront on the walls a rhetorical offense against washington civil then as it is officials have even said a massive trade pact being negotiated by the atlantic allies could now be sunk by the revelations parties where if a national report. no lic

after the break we'll take a look at the new source of tension between israel and the european union to stay with us. zachary what happened that day i don't know but if i killed. piers later is when i got arrested for for a crime i did not do. we have numerous cases where police officers lie about polygraph results you get innocent people to confess the police officers don't beat people anymore i mean it just doesn't happen really you know in the course of interrogation why because there's been this is like meant no because the psychological techniques are more effective in obtaining confessions than physical abuse and they were taking they could do what they wanted they can say what they wanted and there was no evidence of what they did or what they said. welcome back the european union has cut off funding to all israeli entities that operate in the disputed areas of the west bank and east jerusalem now this is part of e.u. pressure on israel to keep inside is original borders before their expansion in one thousand nine hundred sixty seven this is and will affect more than half a mi

>> hello from brussels and a very warm welcome to "european journal." very good to have you with us. here's what we have today -- the wave of drug tests as bulgarians demand an end to corruption. rotten conditions -- how seasonal workers are being exploited in italy. and portugal offers incentives. book area has been -- bulgaria has been a member of the eu for five years, but it is still the poorest country in the bloc. the political class is mired in criminal activities that are so blatant that a few days ago, the ambassadors of germany and france wrote an open letter, calling on politicians to distance themselves from corrupt oligarchs. people in bulgaria are also angry at the government and the high cost of living. >> it has become an early morning ritual. for weeks now, she has been making noise on the way to work. while bulgaria's parliament is in session, outside, the crowd's anger is growing. >> it is unbelievable. a bunch of people who cannot understand anything, cannot do anything, and do not want to do anything. >> these are the bunch of peopl

well the verdict has caused concern in the european union to talk more on that will joined life by european m.p. tatyana jon mann thank you so much for taking the time to speak to us here on r t i am curious in terms of the criticism that has been. that as emerged in this case from the european union what exactly do you find wrong with the guilty verdict against mr not only. yes of course. one of the following is yvonne. who is the president of liberals. of course people are saying. that motivated sentence if i would be defender of conspiracy theory i would those seeing this it is a very good plan of creation of an image. from mr. i man i'm curious the u.k. has said the justice in russia is selective do you believe in that. i see exactly. right and but then many countries including my own lead to justice is very selective and do you think that the outcome would have been different if not only himself was unnecessarily involved in politics in russia. it's very hard for me to true true to make some comply. because of course if you are entering politics justified against corruption you must be

and the european union now hanging by a thread of german politician a member of the european parliament rebecca homs believes that i lack of trust between the powers could potentially kill the deal. this is a huge spying attack from the united states help especially by the united kingdom against against their friends in the european union we have certain instruments as least i agree member of the european parliament see those instruments we have to agreements. in between us and also europe on data so this is this with agreement and also the agreement of. data in the international flights p n r we could stop those agreements and. i really i am convinced that we should not open the negotiations on teeth to this internet this united states trade agreement because this is also very very sensitive when it comes to data action there is a complete different concept of privacy and protecting citizens freedom also in the european union compared to the united states now the sheer scope of u.s. surveillance is leaving others no choice but to prepare themselves to fight it that's according to boliv

intelligence agencies spy on european union offices and institutions. some european lawmakers are calling for consequences until the affair is cleaned up. >> all the treaties that were negotiating with the u.s. concerning security issues, privacy issues -- we are going to have to talk bout these things -- talk to them about these things because the trust is gone. >> if americans do not deliver, the european parliament will launch an investigation, subpoena witnesses, and force a public bait to signal americans that this is not just about a few diplomats or politicians who might be affected -- it's about fundamental issues. >> the eu wants to start trade negotiations as planned, but many think that is a bad idea. the greens want to put the talks on hold. >> a significant part of the discussion addresses internet usage where europeans have completely different standards. >> i think that is a stupid idea, to block now the negotiations on the free trade agreement because the free trade agreement is merely in the interests of the europeans. >> he would like

from the europeans perspective it's a bit ironic isn't it bring about all the anger the e.u. has over the u.s. over its allegations of spying but it was that case they were helping the u.s. out and closed their respects to that jet that they're helping in effect snowden to because of the u.s. it doesn't make sense as it well i think. it makes perfect sense from one point to you that makes perfect sense if you're willing to believe that. there's a group of people operating behind the scenes who are who are putting political pressure on people that's not in the public eye. and it's the kind of pressure that blowers tend to expose in fact and it's very much the kind of political tactics that snowden. what sort of political pressure we're talking about with the u.s. because of course there's all this talk about the trade free trade agreement sure well i think as far as what kind of direct pressure has been put on anybody. we're in the realm of speculation it's very hard to say however we could look closely at how the europeans have reacted and look at let's say some of the righte

spying on its european allies which sparked a wave of fury in the bloc including paris. explains what we see is actually a curious evolution of france's position over america's spying activity from an extreme outrage to an even more extreme tolerance and even support we all remember that france has become furious after it was revealed that america's intelligence services had been more natori in high ranking french and european union officials even abroad and also at home and then the angry at france's president has demanded washington to stop spine immediately and has even threatened to reconsider economic partnership with america and delay the talks over an ambitious project with america over the world's largest free trade zone america france and european countries have been working on for years to work. we cannot fix this kind of behavior between partners and allies but we ask that this immediately stop because they can be no negotiations or transactions in all areas until we have obtained these guarantees for from. all of the european union but what we saw next has ac

governments failed to step up it's i'm very sorry that european governments have chose to rebuff his applications for asylum if we want to protect the principle of freedom of speech of the right to know the what the right to work blow the whistle then we need to be acting as europeans to offer him the kind of protection that he needs so why do you think he has been shunned by those european countries which after all were being spied on by the. well absolutely this story is the effects all of us in europe and it affects all of us globally this is about global mass surveillance but the reason is clear that that european politicians have far far too long actually fallen in to after the americans it's time that we had politicians that stood up and said stop enough we will we will actually stand up for the principle of freedom of speech we will stand up for the principle of asylum that's for example why we as a pirate party movement of been putting pressure on the european parliament to stand up for these rights that's why the pirate party m.p.'s put forward a bill in the icelandic parlia

with that as we showed you to the failure of european states to give permission to the aircraft of the bolivian president to fly through their airspace and is forced landing of this special flight in vienna the following should be noted the activities of france spain and portugal could hardly be regarded as friendly towards we live here as well as russia from where president morales was traveling after his visit. moreover the refusal to grant the right to fly the aircraft could have endangered the safety of the passengers including the head of the silver instate well europe received the lion's share of criticism for their actions in regards to the bolivian president with some latin american officials saying that despite europe is criticizing what edward snowden has actually revealed still that acted as a colony of washington but of course the united states have also been criticized on this matter because of reports that they may have had a hand in this particular incident in fact the united states never made secret that they contacted countries in europe about snowden possibly travelin
