The Euro Zone crisis is escalating, as Greece may be on the verge of a final collapse. According to the Reuters, anxious Greeks have started a bank run, withdrawing as much as 700 million euros ($894 million) from the nation's banks on Monday. Greece's political leaders meet on Wednesday to form a caretaker government to take it to a second election in just over a month, with its euro membership at stake and its president speaking of "fear that could develop into panic" at its banks. President Karolos Papoulias was forced to call a new vote after failing to cobble together a coalition government. An election on May 6 saw leftist opponents of Greece's EU/IMF bailout deprive the parties that ran the country for generations of a majority. Polls suggest the radical left are poised to win the re-run. That prospect has shaken faith in Greece's ability to remain in the single currency and stay solvent, sending the euro and European shares lower, and raising the bond yields that reflect the risk that other European countries will be hurt. Greeks are withdrawing euros from banks, apparently afraid of the prospect of rapid devaluation if the country leaves the European single currency, minutes of Papoulias's negotiations with political leaders showed. Central bank head George Provopoulos told him savers withdrew at least 700 million euros ($894 million) on Monday, the president told party chiefs. "Mr Provopoulos told me there was no panic, but there was great fear that could <b>...</b>

After watching Europe's performance last week the only thing they really were after was an ESM, European Stabilization Mechanism, to tie down all EU nations to a tighter regional set up. As it turns out England and others did not agree. Britain obviously does not want to become part of a new treaty that deprives them of their sovereignty. This regional government concept appeared in the early 1960s and is now going to be pushed in Europe with the US to follow. Our question, is England just trying to protect the advantages of the "City of London," or is the disagreement deeper than that? A new treaty will take two years for ratification, but in the meantime an agreement will hold forth on what can be called a handshake. Evidence is still out on whether this is an attempt by Germany to break up the euro zone and the EU or a genuine effort to set up a platform for world government. We know that since WWII that the internationalists have been setting up Europe as the foundation for world government. On the other hand we know that 65% to 70% of the German people want no part of it from any standpoint. theinternationalforecaster.com www.infowars.com

www.presstv.com In this edition of the show Max interviews Pierre Jovanovic from Jovanovic.com. He will talk about the run on French banks and how President Sarkozy's administration is dealing with this and the European debt crisis. Many analysts are saying that it may not be a Greek default that spurs the next big crisis, but a liquidity crunch at French banks. France's largest banks have lost almost half their value since August 1, leading to solvency concerns. Without an injection of cash from the European Central Bank investors may continue to flee French finance, spreading panic along the way.

Follow us @ twitter.com twitter.com Welcome to Capital Account. European banks are under pressure to raise capital and the Euro could collapse triggering panic in financial markets and another great depression. These are all warnings coming out of the international monetary fund. Central banks haven't been waiting -- they appear to be moving away from the euro by buying more gold. We'll talk about it. And while we are on the topic of the IMF as policymakers descend upon washington for the Spring meeting -- it seems all about rasing money to boost the IMF's fire power aimed at putting out Europe's debt crisis. But what about defaulting on the debt? How much debt can you throw at a problem caused by too much debt? Economist Michael Hudson joins us to give us his take. He always says "debts that cannot be repaid won't be repaid." And in our loose change segment, we cover recent efforts by British MPs who say savers that have been penalized by the Bank of England's money printing should be compensated for it, while Citigroup investors say executives shouldn't be compensated so handsomely for poor performance. This is a first for big US banks, but it doesn't matter! We'll tell you what we think.

New technocrat-led governments in Greece and Italy, are getting down to business to tackle their massive debts. Italy's Prime Minister-designate says it's too early to determine how his country will cope with more anti-crisis measures, but is warning people of sacrifices ahead. Mario Monti is trying to rally parties for support. Some want him to go once reforms are pushed through, although the former EU commissioner plans to stay until the 2013 election. But the clock's ticking for Greece - with the new Prime Minister heading up a 15-week coalition. Lucas Papademos faces a confidence vote on Wednesday, and says securing the next bailout is the priority, and that his country must stick with the Euro. Our business editor Nick Pool explores how the single currency's flaws have led some countries to ruins, rather than riches. RT on Twitter twitter.com RT on Facebook www.facebook.com

Greek party leaders have sent written commitments to Brussels saying they will stick to the agreed austerity measures even after the general elections in April. There are still EU demands Athens failed to fulfill, which led to the cancellation of a key meeting of Eurozone finance ministers.

The Greek Parliament is set to approve the country's new international bailout deal later today as more protests, against austerity measures in return for rescue funds, are planned. Athens received a second bailout this year. Combined with its first rescue package, the country stands to receive over 172 billion euros in loans from eurozone countries and the IMF. But Greece's creditors claim the country's most recent austerity measures could be 'accident prone'. Experts say the country may fail to lower its debt burden to the specified targets, later requiring more rescue loans. Greece is in its fifth year of recession, and many believe it needs to recover before debt reduction plans can have much effect.

RT interviews economist and professor at the ICAI School of Engineering Manuel Balmaseda, who insists that the economic disaster that heavily indebted Spain has found itself in is clearly a consequence of Spain joining the euro. When Spain joined the euro, the EU Central Bank settled overly low interest rates, resulting in Spain receiving "enormous amounts of credit which increased Spanish indebtedness, particularly foreign".

S&P's announcement shook international markets, with investors cutting and running on European holdings. Especially worrying for them this time is that even Germany, seen as the EU's backbone, is not being spared. Standard & Poor's justified its decision by pointing out the bloc's consistent failure to stem its debts, even as nations saw their bond interest rates rocket.

From BBC News: All eyes are once again on the latest attempts to resolve the eurozone debt crisis, with European finance ministers gathering in Poland for a meeting. Worries about a Greek default are high on the agenda, and US Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner is attending the meeting, underlining Washington's fears that problems in the eurozone could spread beyond Europe. UK Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne said on Friday that the eurozone's situation was "grave", and Austria's finance minister refused to rule out the prospect of an eventual Greek default. The BBC has learned that the UBS trader being questioned on suspicion of unauthorised trading alerted the bank himself. The BBC's business editor, Robert Peston, says UBS's internal controls did not pick up the huge loss allegedly generated by its trader Kweku Adoboli, and that Mr Adoboli told UBS that he had engaged in unauthorised trades.
