Abandoned it at the height of the will stare as he years on the crisis that saw a huge recession here in greece and led to great loss of faith in mainstream political powers and to win back 40 percent of the popular vote. That means that the Political Trends of the past decade have now come full circle that the Mainstream Party is a beginning to win back those that they had lost or at least new democracy so lets see how that election unfolded on sunday. The leader of the new Democracy Party got 40 years to pull not just a majority but an outright one that allows the conservatives to rule on their own for the 1st time in 50 years the others who took ickes says it will allow him to implement an ambitious Reform Program unhindered by Coalition Partners at least in ascii close but this wasnt just an expression of the will to close a painful chapter for our country it was much more than back to the fate of the people in their strength is the desire to take our fates into our own hands and use to prove that we can do great things in our own country. The pressure is now on me to thank yous to deliver on his promise to bring growth to the Greek Economy and help create 700000 jobs in his 1st hes planning to do it partly through tax cuts but greece can only afford them if international bailout creditors agree to cut repayments its a goal that eluded previous governments since the beginning of government austerity measures imposed in 2010 when greece faced bankruptcy because of its massive debts the victory of me to thank yous and 4 and a half years of rule by cities a Prime Minister alexis to put us raised the coalition of the radical left from obscurity to seize power from the new Democracy Party in the last election in 2015 promised he would be the vanguard of a left wing revolution across europe to defeat the austerity policies imposed on greece that caused recession and unemployment. Ultimately capitulated to those policies in order to keep greece in the eurozone despite cities are raising the minimum wage cutting sales tax and offering more benefits to pensioners this year it seems to have been too little too late for that. I will receive mr mr tarkus into the palace so to hand over to him the office of Prime Minister as is done in the democratic stage. I would like to from the bottom of my heart. Thank all the members and friends of our party who gave a good fight in viable conditions. In order to double its growth rate of growth much faster greece will need huge levels of Foreign Investment in the coming years and that will be perhaps the biggest challenge on the economic front and that needs a lot of structural reform which sometimes takes time theres more at stake here than the economy for the past decade greeks have watched their politicians being dictated to by their creditors the International Monetary fund and the euros and because those politicians didnt want to assume ownership of unpopular reforms. Like his predecessors its a thank you says he wants to restore greek sovereignty and dignity but unlike when he wants to do it in collaboration with European Union partners. John golden dawn given their marching orders what went wrong for them. Well golden dawn was 1st of all a symptom of the crisis they rose up into parliament with 7 percent of the popular vote in 2012 the year in which 2 snap elections produced a lot of splinter poetrys because people were moving away from mainstream politics they were disaffected with the. Austerity policies that they were implementing and the unemployment and recession that were going on in greece so they came back in 2015 in those elections both times january and september and then they did it 3 me well in the European Parliament elections winning 9 percent of the vote that year but since then the economy has calmed down somewhat the recession ended there is mild growth greece graduated from its Austerity Program its been welcomed back by International Markets its able to borrow again and begin to try and normalize and modernize its economy so golden dawn like all the other protest parties and splinter groups lost much of their constituency the 2nd thing that killed them is the fact that they are under prosecution as a criminal organization that trial is ongoing but all 18 of the original golden dawn a. P. M. P. s that were elected in 2012 including the party leader a currently in the dark as organized criminals for beating up immigrants and attacking physically their political opponents and that doesnt make the Party Look Good at all either john thank you. Lots more news on the sport still to come here on the news including these stories well tell you about the painful plans by germanys biggest bank is being felt around the world. Russian tourists are coming for exactly this kind of experience. But theres turbulence on the horizon for georgia as flights between the 2 countries are grounded. And in the sports news how brazil clinched the copa america from minds time as the action. Back to europe the u. K. Says it regrets the leak of memos from its ambassador to washington which called the trumpet ministration uniquely dysfunctional clumsy and inept the memos from kim darrow who leaked to a newspaper triggering an angry response from President Trump was that the ambassador has not served the u. K. Well lets get more on that from our correspondent john a whole journal in london so the keyword i guess tzschirner embarrassment for number 10. Absolutely excruciating embarrassment in government circles here i think particularly given that these memos. Revealed just weeks after donald trump and his family were fated so publicly here with all the pomp and ceremony and royalty of course of a full state visit and you know the government in in its embarrassment i think doing everything they can to try and repair the damage but also to distance themselves from these comments made by kim darrick the ambassador of course a pivotal diplomatic position the ambassador in washington he was in place since just before dawn trump came to the white house so hes had a unique opportunity to observe the Administration Since the very beginning making these comments as you say saying the administration will not become more stable describing the president himself as insecure and suggesting that he might crash and burn his career ending possibly in disgrace of course theres a theres a balance going on here the government needing to try and limit the damage to the diplomatic corps and so youve got the Prime Ministers spokesman at number 10 expressing her full faith in him barack the ambassador but saying that it is the job of an ambassador to provide an honest and unvarnished view of the u. S. Administration but that she did not necessarily have to agree with his comments and jeremy hunt the foreign secretary the sort of boss of the diplomats if you like vying of course for tourism is job he says these comments are the personal views of kim darrick that he hunt doesnt agree with but making the point that it is vital that diplomats feel that they are able to express their frank and honest views heres what he had to say. Of course weve made it clear that i dont share the ambassadors assessment of either the Us Administration or relations with the Us Administration but i do defend his right to make that frank assessment and its very important that our diplomats all over the world continue to be able to do so just to be clear journal the same ambassador leaked this information himself and if he did whats the potential sanction that hes facing. I havent heard that accusation myself im not sure anybody is pointing the finger directly at kim dara kim darrick will write memos in washington and send them off to london and at some point in london these memos have been seen by probably quite a number of people there 2 years old now the Prime Minister has launched an inquiry its obviously being seen as a very serious breach of the rules leaking these sort of confidential memos but if you think about it they have crossed the desks of diplomats of members of the Civil Service of ministers both in government now and those whove left government it may be very hard to find the culprit of course inevitably in these politically very divided times focus focus does move to the ambassador and his suitability or his ability to continue in the job and the likes of briggs it Party Leader Nigel farage a good friend of donald trump of course has suggested that hes a man with a globalist outlook totally opposed to the trump doctrine who was always the wrong person for the job hes got the trust still of the Prime Minister now shes only in place for another 2 weeks or so her successor will high on his list of priorities will be both braggs it and preserving the best possible relations with the United States kim dereks position at that point may become very difficult to sustain jonah thank you.

Germanys biggest bank is cutting 18000. 00 jobs in a major shakeup of its Business Bank expects to make a 3000000000. 00 quarterly last. Because of the restructuring the bank based in frankfurt failed to merge with its rival Commerce Bank in april and its been struggling for years with the decline of its investment operation lets take more on this join us live from berlin is our correspondent there dominic cain good afternoon so this means big job cuts but not immediately. Yes not immediately peter and not in germany at least not the the headline job cuts that weve been reading about for the past 24 hours most of those cuts will come in other large Financial Institutions that georgia bank has representation in specifically in london and in other as i say Financial Institutions around the world the point to make here is this is the latest a part of the saga as it were that has unfolded around dortch of bank going back many years now the point here is that the Investment Banking branch has been ailing very much in recent years and the tact thats being taken by the bank now is not it was not universal approval for it from within its own board one of the executives resigned from his post in the in recent days clearly when it was became clear that that sundays and thats what would be made so people have to view whats happening today through the prism of this long slow decline and as a size a repeat the job losses when they come well it seems as though the headline elements of them will not be taking place in germany has this been exacerbated dharm because of the brics it because deutsche banks been signalling now for what 18 months 2 years or so look brics it is bad news for our investment as a global banker in the square mile in the city of london that youre talking about. Well certainly there will be some analysts who think thats the case piece that they look at the circumstance of the factors youre outlining there and they might sort of the might have 2nd thoughts about the direction that that is being taken there certainly from a doj a Bank Perspective they want to move away from Share Trading and the move away from hedge funds and that sort of thing they want to return what you might call to more Old Fashioned banking practices as it were more reliable perhaps banking practices and they they believe that the way to return to profitability at least the sorts of profitability that they used to enjoy is to go down this line of rationalizing jobs which is effectively code for shedding jobs in london and indeed in other of the cities around the world where large Financial Institutions operate daughter back clearly sees that as the the point to make also is as you mentioned in the introduction there peter that the merger with comments bank which the German Government had seemed to suggest might be a lifeline well thats not something thats going to happen the 2 elements thought it was too risky to go with that merge and so it hasnt happened so if we see everything thats happening today through the prisms we were talking about well then explains why whats happening today is happening today dominic thanks very much.

But georgian wine exports may be next on russias banned list russian officials talk of tightening controls on georgian food and beverages russia is a major market its very difficult to quantify the impact of the tourism ban or even the ban on flights and potentially the ban on wine and vegetables and fruits thats going to be difficult to quantify in terms of g.

Tens of thousands of ethiopians emigrated here in the eightys and ninetys encouraged by successive governments 3 years ago a Ministerial Commission made a series of recommendations after widespread discrimination against Ethiopian Jews was exposed a coordination unit to prevent racism was set up but critics say what has been done on paper isnt being put into practice the police are supposed to work thought it comes to film every interaction. But theyre not theyre also supposed to be stiffer penalties for Violent Police officers and a reduction in the use of tasers but theres no evidence of any of this. According to the Justice Ministry the police have not published yearly reports on how officers who acted in a racist manner have been disciplined we dont want no one to hug us or say that they understand.
