largely self these pro russian region saying that he considers the government he of the legitimate why do you think so many western leaders have been very quick to recognize the legitimacy of the new installed government in kiev. of course it is that it will be in line with the rangers to do so. so unfortunately seen with us policy in of course is that the united states. they will force the support any group of girls that are as long as they are in line with us financial interests. and they feel that they will be online for instance the nineteen eighty three four steals and a sign that hangs against the russian parliament the worst united states for the clueless on the line it's the inclusion of
5:11 pm
the seventy two when we might have some remarks but regardless because he displays an independent straight. he's a robot three season. ukraine. so we feel less the government is one that is beyond us interests will support it or not we want to knit. it comes to power and does so even for the overall environment thereby leading a protest note to result in a democratically elected government being pushed aside so the dinner as long as saying the united states has the government wants. how do you think that government may turn out looking at the current crop of opposition leaders who are now and for all intensive purposes in power there do you think that that could end up being a final government well it's really difficult since when does the situations are so turbulent an ounce of course that the united states is not interested in having a fascist government in place so all we do have these white nationalists take extreme elements alone. some of those in the new korean government united states. it is the one

5:13 pm
their gdp was so low. it's going to do that too much attention to or wants to take a look at you crave or staple in the pool and has twice the per capita gdp. that's the ukraine gas to ukraine and relatively low level of detail that means that they are not missing too much further than they already are but that is what is the real cheap issue that needs to be addressed. ukraine needs real economic development. and it's paying off its bondholders does nothing to help the country. will we really need is an entirely new dialogue will be required to develop the credit for seventy names like granting of its export of wheat and see if we can do something to identify markets first of its industrial products with each course. so those are to go to russia. perhaps the best that you could result in new industries located to the western arctic wind protection for its industrial products from the east again unfortunately all i see is

that without such friendly criticism and support. we would have still managed to do everything but i doubt whether we would have done it with such quality. because we like the enormous experience of our friends from the ioc this was their gift to us however there was and i'm sure there still is another group of critics who have little to do with sport their main concern is competition in international politics. their job is different in the new zealand project which keep their own goals in their anti russian propaganda efforts. whenever a strong competitor years in russia in this case. there is always someone who doesn't like this. he starts working against it. however the field corner stand how deep the changes are in western society changes that have affected its very nature and nice to taste many by saying i hate the sin in cakes each item precious soul to the wound shut in in iraq shia which the rest of
