it's back to bailouts in europe as shaken euro kratz freshly humbled by diplomatic failure at their brussels summit converge once again on greece they were joined by bankers bearing the same all gifts bailouts and instructions on what to do next as are going off now reports it's all just feeding the flames under the euro. it's not easy running a business even a small one like this german company which produces isolation materials for gas turbines loans taxes salaries competition it's enough to keep any business man's head busy but many still wonder why rules different when it comes to the big buck or in this case the euro. when a business takes a loan and cons paid back in and says it's bankruptcy i think a state which keeps accumulating debt has to do the same it's no different from a company in that sense you don't borrow money if you know you can't pay it back but for some reason often this doesn't seem to be the case for the eurozone so let's take greece for example besides billions of euros which have already been allocated to bail it out even leaders have approved yet another tranche t

and the timeline target date for that is march two thousand and twelve right now of course the euro kratz actually are rather happy with the result saying that the leaders right now are finally acting fast considering that the last lisbon treaty it took eight years for them to negotiate something so they're happy that it's actually moving forward whether the euro krauts are saying will this need for speed would it be sacrificing democratic processes and they're still asking what are countries like greece italy portugal and maybe even spain with economies that don't fit this euro system what are they stood still doing in this group ing the question of the journalists have been throwing throwing out leaders is at this point is the euro safe and the answer we're all getting here is i hope so. talk talk and more talk even the politicians know it one of them words alone and not believed any more because too often we did not live up to our words. yet another d.-day for the euro another big question mark hangs over brussels do years and politicians have what it takes to hit the euro crisis nail

number of legislative legislative arrangements ok now i'd like to go to james i mean james the euro kratz are talking about making these adjustments a new treaty has been two point zero but we're running out of time and we're running out of time very very quickly for this currency here i mean there's a lot of bad debt payments are right around the corner and there he blew me at the same time when you have so much austerity it's not creating any growth i mean this is this is the worst of all possible worlds. oh yeah it's course in a vise no uncertain terms that on one side you know the demand for debt repayments the interest payments to be made on the other hand the desperate rush to austerity actually trampling out real economic activity and therefore making those those debt repayments you know essentially on me to bill going into the future certainly in the case of greece a default is essentially never it's but what still hangs over the euro zone is that pos prospects of a really major default by a very major economy like italy that's something that there's still a possibility now the sa

now if i may a european governments are already being replaced by a bi euro kratz based out of brussels for example of greece and italy just just how far do you think will the political heart of europe encroach and continue to encroach on suffering today. oh i believe we've lost the line here i see again we were speaking to the head of economics at erasmus university and anyway we appreciate your patience in joining us but we are coming to you live from moscow it's now id twenty minutes past three saturday afternoon demonstrations have been held in cities worldwide calling for the release of one of america's most famous prisoners. was incarcerated thirty years ago of killing a white police officer it's a crime today that he still denies the conflict and was on death row until this week when a court commuted the sentence to life in prison his supporters claim the former black panther movement member is an innocent political prisoner activist mike farrell says deserves a fair trial now because. it is like many other cases in the united states a case where race entered into the prosecution

greece believes the country will see even more social devastation in two thousand and twelve and euro kratz in brussels are to blame people in despair for. unemployment rates on the scene because they have a public spending cut. salaries i don't understand your mother's thirty percent cut we're being told they're going to do it maybe more ten more years to still refuse to read it live and when we help them the first time we're talking about big things so we measure but not true of course it seems to me i think you are like you were referring to both bucking the we have a strong rejection the world is policy so the government goes no way to change it by the european union and the i.m.f. said no you cannot come out for under you know you cannot have an election you're going to have a european central bank or a prime minister whether you like you can look you're going first to vote hold his moves or not the people in the streets tell her to take this and then you can come an election but this is a mockery of democracy. now we cross to the third top story that shapes two thousand and eleven tim
