U. N. Team investigates the deportation from dominican republic. Be a spending spree in the city of manchester. 80 million of sterling from liverpool. After 17 hours of marathon talks in brussels a multibillion be euro be bailout deal. Athens would receive over 86 billion euros in return, greece has to make tough reforms which include tax hikes privatization and austerity. Be tsipras has until wednesday to overcome be opposition in parliament. Without that the package dies. First Al Jazeera Jacky Rowland reports from brussels. Reporter a deal at last. After talks that lasted all night, eurozone leaders emerged atthat they i avoided the worst scenario a greek exit from the euro. Today we had only one objective to reach an agreement. After 17 hours of negotiations we have finally reached it. Someone can say that we have an agreekment. No laughing matter for the greeks. They need to agree to a large package and agree to sell off 50 billion of state assets. An exhausted Alexis Tsipras tried to put the best possible gloss on it. Translator the deal is difficult. But we have prevented the public property abroad, the plan of financial ax fiction yaition ax asphyxiation. We tried in this hard fight a refinancing of the debt and secure in the meantime. Chancellor Angela Merkel was groil thatcategorical that it not be written off. The most important currency, trust, was lost between us. As we know, paper is patient. Going forward whats most important is to implement what weve agreed to during the night. These were grueling talks for everyone who spent the night at the European Council but there process is far from over. The idea is half of the the money used to recapitalize the greek banks. A quarter would be used to pay off the greek debt and the rest of it would be reinvested into greece but eurozone leaders have made it clear that talks on the bailout cannot even begin until greek parliaments passes the whole package of measures into law. So the european leaders drive away into the gray light of morning. Most of them can now catch some badly nighted sleep but not the greek Prime Minister. For sure the night was brooding for him and he can only another bruising whether he faces the parliament and the people of greece. Jacky rowland, al jazeera brussels. In athens antiausterity protesters are gathering. These are live pictures in santagmus square. The vat increases the tax rises, the privatization all of the rest of it. Everything you insisted upon if the bailout is even discussed. Its going to take four weeks to confirm the details should the greeks pass all those testings. He is meeting with the Junior Coalition ally, and they are talking negatively about whether they are going to support the deal or not. And tomorrow early hes going to have a meeting with the rowdier elements of his own party syriza 148 seats in parliament but some of them far to the left of the political spectrum. They 2 dozen and counting are already saying they will not support it. Only eight days ago 61 instead of greek people voted no to more austerity in the belief he would negotiate a better deal than the one that was on the table then. Well that hasnt happened and to get a sense of how the greeks are feeling my colleague mohammed jamjun took to the street to determine. Reporter the deal may be done but so far this is worst day ive had in 30 years christos tells me. Christos tells me says now things have changed. Theres simply no justice. That these days, life in greece has turned into one big bad bet. The big fish eats the small fish he tells me. Poor tsipras went to stand up to merkel but with germany its not possible. He like the majority of greeks thought austerity measures were off the table for good. The lottery is more reliable than german government. That sentiment that germany was enthusiastically hauling greece over the coals was baddied about on the square. We have to put mr. Schaeuble with the euro. Yanis varoufakis, was the loser. In the game of poker you may lose dimes or dollars or euros but in europe you might lose more than that. Reporter a healthy doas of dose of pessimism. Did they just agree to disagree . Nothing is finished yet. Reporter its become little more than a numbers game. Here outside parliament there is a sense of spase a greek word, that means stagnation. People here feel stuck tied to forces wholly out of their control. Life seeming more dependent than the luck of the draw than ever before. Model jamjun, al jazeera athens. The banks have been closed. Whats happening with the banks now . Well, no change there. I think some greeks might have secretly hoped that had they agreed with this deal there would be some flexibility some easing of the pressure on the bank system. No chance of that. We have an official announcement that the banks will be closed at least through wednesday so 60 euros remains the limit there. Then threr there are payments that the greeks must pay. 3. 3 billion euros back to the central bank and this 86 billion euro deal doesnt take into account any of that so the european creditors are having to get together twefn between now and then to try to work out a bridging loan of eight million or so, and even then theres no deal on that unless there is capitulation and passing of the laws through parliament on wednesday, and empty that they wont get that either. Neave barker is in brussels, clearly they are waiting to see whether tsipras can push this through parliament. Talk us there what the european perspective is on this deal. Reporter well, a little earlier on i was at a press conference owner jeroen the full eurozone is holding its breath where the hope is for many within the eurozone, if that is the case there will be a collective sigh of relief before eurozone countries then ratify the be agreement within their own Respective Police departments. Once that happens the message will then go to the european stabilization mechanism to release the funds a process that could stay many weeks and months. But the first hurdle of course is that wednesday midnight deadline. Neave meantime, the discussions in the eurozone and how to deal with this, there are still schisms there if things start to unravel. Reporter absolutely. There is no doubt there are still tensions within the eurozone. We have seen throughout the last couple of days, negotiations, friction between the likes of frarches and italy who have france and italy, Baltic States germany and finland, the only hope of greek Financial Support is if they promise to pay debts and come up with a workable strategy for being able to do that. One cant imagine that now that an agreement has been reached that these divisions will disappear overnight. But the hope is that they wont rear their ugly heads before that crucial deadline on wednesday. Neave barker, thched. Thank you very much indeed.

One unemployed man that voted no in the referendum said he knew some sort of compromise would be reecht with the eu reached with the eu but didnt know it would be so bad for greek. He was hoping to find a job pain now he says that his future looks bleaker than ever.

There are more than 100 islands in greece, and most of them live off tourists. So far the islands had lower taxes than the mainland. Under the new deal, Hotels Restaurants and catering businesses will face an increase in taxes that in some cases could reach 23 . That would translate in higher prices for tourists. Now this comes at a time where the industry is about the only one functioning in this country providing up to 15 of the annual ejdp. They are concerned that greece will become a less attractive hol did i destination. Do you think Alexis Tsipras can get this deal through parliament . Well, i hope that the unity of the government and the party is going to be conserved. Because you know, it is not an easy deal. It is a very harsh deal, we have tried to defend a different version of europe a social one versus the liberal orthodoxy. But we have been greatly outnumbered and we had to choose between these harsh measures and the lack of liquidity and the continuation of closure. We have a your responsibility this was in part mismanaged by the government. For example be many syriza government has tried to plunge greece back into a crisis. Creates a precarious humanitarian situation. Surely the government has some part in the way this has been handled. No. We have tried exactly to defend a different approach that these continuation of austerity which feed each other the liberate strategy of partners to quawft time and use the lack of liquidity of our economy as political weapons during the negotiation because exactly the disietion of [simultaneous speech] two week delay and youve ended up having to agree with a deal that was worse than one you had two weeks ago. Uhhuh. They have presented us with an ultimate mawmultimatum. Then they have to used their big weapon which was exactly the closure of the banks. That was a deliberate decision of the European Central bank not to increase liquidity. Im speaking about a deliberate preliminary decision exactly because the greek banks did not face a solvency problem. They had just a liquidity problem that would be easily remedied by an easing of liquidity. They had to keep the pressure on our electorate first of all to extort favorable decisions of the people on the referendum and then to keep the pressure on us exactly because the fear of a real december of a real economy was imminent. So did you think some would describe this as a form coup is that something you agree with or that language is too emotive . Well, it is Strong Language but it is for sure, that they have used the lack of liquidity as a political weapon to exert pressure. They were willing to kill the economy of a spall country to concert their political exert their political ends. We are a small country. Do you think that tsipras can survive a lot of this politically . A lot of the people our correspondents have be spoken to on the ground feel they have been lied to, thinking they have to take austerity anyway. Do you think tsipras ought to go . I think that the Prime Minister has showed that he wanted to give a fight. And as i have already said it was a very unequal one at this moment. But we hope that we are going to see a shift of the balance of forces in europe, because new elections is paying going to take place and exactly this has stance of our partners is view to be very efforts to avoid this political contagion to show to europe that we are not an example to be fold. In order thatmentodemos, the other progressive forces, to look back and reexamine their stance. I hope the counter is going to happen. That the people of greece can understand that austerity is not just only bad for greece, its bad for everybody. Enough to stabilize the economy in greece they simply did not do enough. But if you look at the social and economic indicators, of this counters that are spoaived to spoafs supposed to be a big success. The unemployment is very high, so the only, that maybe they have again from these are the economical lifts that is why we see from europe, it is not just greece it is everywhere, it is as if a battle is rising against middle class.
