the but. the me reprobate will be known as the to the limits of the country's leaders agree to use as a diplomatic weapon. also this hour the last remaining detention center under my control in iraq is transferred to local authorities they took hundred mainly and named inmates will remain under u.s. vision. thirty five years together in orbit russia and the us then a battery of their has joined spaceflight and the war in cold war relations that

followed. news from russia and around the world this is ask the with me thanks for joining is a growing closeness between russia and the west doesn't show as a joint a russian german summit in the city of bug president dmitri medvedev and chancellor angela merkel shared drugs about paul that psychic world cup octopus and burgers with brock obama but amid the smiles i got some business done to you with dozens of agreements signed and our correspondent daniel bushell is following the story for us. in the windy city over you could get was very much a case of the madrid if and merkel or m.m. sure if you like is the su countries leaders roths more of their personal strong relationship really highlights the countries to excellent relationship at the

moment historically until it was greeted and chatted with mr medvedev influence russian he with her off to a top local restaurant where they enjoyed all to perth but later promised it was not the both who predicted that germany would lose in the semifinal over the world cup now there was talk of a trio of world leaders forward looking leaders barack obama to reach madrid if i glue merkel a transatlantic troika if you like moving the world forward of security and defense issues with food as the unifying force let's listen in but surely you might let me draw your attention to the fact that germany is number one on the list of russia's partners we have long time relations which has not been spoiled even by difficult chapters in our history. when it comes to russia and germany's relations with other countries it's not like in school where you have just one friend we can have many

friends germany and russia have their own issues they're completely different in nature to transatlantic problems it's useful for us to be able to discuss them together the room for dialogue doesn't exist in the same degree with president obama as it does between us but the u.s. relationship is still very important and i think president medvedev also would like to read to read that this conference is no way should signalize a better relationship with president obama. well we have two options either the three of us going to meet some how megas we'd rather treat our friend barack obama to some kind of european grizzly's could. i think the burger will taste best for me . so after all joy and siemens of germany really takes all of russia's. zation box is today a place to join russia silicon valley a joint new project being built on the outskirts of moscow it will also modernize washes train system its trains which are outdated and yet crucial to the country

really relies on its trains in a lot of parts of the country and thirdly wind turbines will build wind turbines an eco drive in a country which is also trying to become more environmentally friendly the other big issue was iran of great wall concern at the moment as it continues to suggest it's moving towards a nuclear bomb but that if up the pressure on nash. iran is an active and proven trade partner but it doesn't mean that we're indifferent towards the way these limits republic is developing its nuclear facilities we are also concerned with some military components of its atomic program like iran should find courage to begin fully cooperating with the international community to iran should do this even if it doesn't like some issues it's currently facing friendly relationship between the two wrapping up what has been a very successful summit a very successful meeting between the two leaders and also business leaders and political leaders germany and russia really two of the strongest partnerships on

the world stage today. russia will hope its relationship with germany will pave the way for an improvement of ties with the as a whole. canal is open and eastern europe expert at the battle cement foundation. at the moment russia and germany. clause especially in political context as we could see in the last two days economic cooperation is good the parts could be improved. i. developed months after relations very positive and. good german russian cooperation could be transferred to. the u.s. has handed over the last of iraq's prisons to the country's government authorities

their own prisons one that they have amnesty international has published many critical reports on them. and of course detainee abuse is widespread in iraqi prison so i can't imagine that these detainees will be any better off actually under iraqi custody than american. so to come later in the program a blast from the past. the scenes of the old doc became so popular that alongside the usual memorabilia the special brand of cigarettes was created just to mark the occasion. thirty five days up to the historic norm looks at the significance of these but some of them dies it spawned. a ride to remember falling down and amusement park turn from to see it but these visitors in st petersburg when they're hopeless and being in.

that the the u.s. government has the reason to deny it. which is why delegations are here in washington following a report issued by lawmakers scientists and doctors calling on the u.s. government to own up to its agent orange legacy in vietnam today also people than me government records show nearly ninety five percent of all u.s. agent orange related aid is committed to efforts to contain and remove dioxin contamination we asked the justice of all the victims those fighting for justice in the case of vietnamese agent orange victims want the physical and psychological damages to be acknowledged if they etc they have to pay to come to state for maimie instead of people. not only in nam but also in taking it to states and also to the country. like. australia and new zealand with all of the dark legacy left behind by the us in vietnam is one with

these days space exploration is a joint international efforts but it began as a race between the soviet union and the u.s. thirty five years ago today there was a breakthrough when the two countries launched the first have a joint mission apollo sinews catarina reflects on that. it was a turning point the launch the called war space race into new heights two rockets blasting off half a world away from each other would bring the soviet union and the united states into the same orbit and so use nineteen enemy apollo craft. all new chapter in space exploration the first ever joint project between two bitter rivals. it was a giant leap for the man on board to see if he was the second pilot in the say you screwed. it was one of the most significant moments in history of russia and

the u.s. before everything was. every detail was a poor project we could finally pass the barrier. you believe he still remembers all the. details of that flight from the technical to the happy banter between them and the american astronauts. who were showing the guys different cities and places in russia and when we were flying over the us brand was showing us florida i remember he said this is where all the pension has go to live. thirty five years on most of these men will once again get the chance to meet and share memories of their historic link up with my brother alex. commander is in the united states for the big day or. the launch was during the height of the cold war so this project wasn't of just technical and scientific importance but it was also

a great step towards cooperation between russia and the u.s. there were no losers. there are plans for alex and his apollo counterpart thomas stafford to meet president obama but not until the friends have had a chance to catch up with each other it was a very meaningful symbol to the people of the world when we opened the hatch. and showed to the world when the way you look the space race said in a way the joint space project had a huge impact on both sides of the atlantic a time when rocket launches captured millions of imaginations worldwide media conceived watch the sea use reach into the sky and vividly remembers every emotion it stirred. i was in the fourth grade and it was a huge celebration not just for the school but the entire city we got hundred balloons flying and went to meet the cosmonauts and then later on we were all outside again to watch the actual launch i remember my dad who worked at the launch

pad he told me that this was the most important event of the century. thirty five years on and this a usable a project still fires people's feelings some are even banking on it the scenes apollo became so popular that alongside the original memorabilia special brand of cigarettes was created just to mark the occasion back in the day these were incredibly popular and were almost impossible to find on the thirty fifth anniversary of the docking they are once again missing from the city stores catch readers are the artsy moscow. turn allies were literally left hung by a thread when extremes to rail ride on a rocket like attraction almost ended in tragedy these visitors to one of saying that as bad as a newsman ox. hawks go to nasty sean cable snapped on the ride leaving them suspended in mid-air at seventy meters above the ground not a rescue team has made it to the spot just in time to free the stranded passengers

and it isn't the fuss. scad then the human part two years ago a twelve year old girl suffered serious injuries. in a trampoline accident also involving a snap skate. now let's update here are some other new stories in the brief from around the world. the piece has a new cop has stopped all all it all or leaking from the damaged well in the gulf of mexico they're now testing the integrity of the new sea org both president obama and the company were cautiously optimistic but stressed that it was still a temporary fix it is the first stand the flow has been stopped since an explosion destroyed big deepwater horizon rig nearly three months ago. at least twenty people have been killed and over a hundred injured in two suicide bomb blasts in southeast iran the explosions took place outside the main mosque in the provincial capital had done striking

a crowd of worshippers so far no one's claimed responsibility for this region is home to a sunni insurgent group has been responsible for a number of things in recent years. the foreign ministers of india and pakistan have met in his love out of the two countries look to improve strained relations and revive peace talks the discussions were aimed at rebuilding trust that was fractured by the deadly attacks nearly two years ago in mumbai which the indian government blames on pakistan based militants and the indian foreign minister as krishna is the most senior official to visit pakistan says the move by in which one hundred sixty six people were killed. now with titles like the day of the jackal and the odessa file under his belt have better to speak to about the latest spy scandal sextile going to be right at frederick forsyth.

you are the. most of all so i thank you so much for talking to r.t. today that this seems to have been a very lengthy process in which no actual secrets were passed on do you think that these particular spies would ever have produced information that would have been of any value well it's difficult to say what they would eventually. have managed to get hold of certainly what they were doing when they were discovered during very

quiet suburban lives it does for a lot of people they had not penetrated any major institution like cia. or f.b.i. or the pentagon or some nuclear facility that any of that they might have been used as me go betweens but one doesn't think that as the primary information source they were nowhere near as sensitive material and these kind of deep sleep i mean what kind of person would do that it seems to be quite a special type of scale it is to do to leave your homeland to go to somebody else's and really is completely sink yourself in their society to such a degree that you can puff for one of them that is an exceptional skill it takes years of practice the idea that they just arrived with no training is nonsense they would have been years in a like an all-american village somewhere person the urals becoming americans over an extended period and then to arrive in

a no you may never see your homeland again it's a win for most people to root. exactly fights to make it's very very unusual most traitors for example spies who spied against russia or the u.s.s.r. during the cold war were themselves russians oil ukrainians or you know and traitors in the west were british or americans. very rare to find someone who can pass. for me gordon lowndes dale who was the muffs the mind of what we call the portland bill spy ring many years ago was indeed kernel. of the k.g.b. but he was gordon the canadian businessman. and he was asleep but it's very unusual it's the most unusual. form in which espionage takes place and this is a song that's actually still ongoing just this week we had the arrest of another yet another spa in the united states only twenty three years old which seems extraordinary young what kind of training do you think he would have had at such

a young age well i don't know what i don't know how he was able if he was indeed able to plus the thing about america it's an easier side to penetrate that in british society because i mean america is an ethnic melting pot and you can say hey you know i'm of i'm a polish immigrant i love america i'm a polish american and i have a name like cobol skeet because my american with a name like evolves because it's harder to say i am very open to go my instances go back three hundred years in britain when you're not. these things can be checked so you have to have what's called a legend that's going to be very very perfect takes years of working all and usually as it with gordon lonsdale there was once a golden globe still was canadian boy who died and his entire life story was taken over by the k.g.b. . who created a new one around their own their own man that's i was usually done to take over

someone who died but who who is ancestry can be proved. that sides don't do you think that the the rest of these people at that time was politically most of a sense i don't know i it's all because i'm. it's. it came just. prime as a president medvedev was. sort of sharing a hamburger with the american president so maybe the american president barack obama was very pleased that should be at that moment. it could be a decision that the director of the f.b.i. said we can't delay perhaps we thought they might fly the coop if they didn't do something quickly but anyway they were there was one shot of the two heads of government cheerily sharing a hamburger about three days later. this is a humiliating story for for for moscow this is a thing that was sold very quickly more quickly than it would have been for example

during the cold war why why do you think that was what was behind the solving of it i think the reason. the original arrests the trial all the arrangements were streaming quick and the decision to swap them was very quick. from america's point of view i think derives the fact that they were they realize they actually weren't sort of top top top level people. they are an embarrassment to moscow. they're almost a joke to the american media who couldn't take them seriously i mean guy you can say what have you done in ten years would have penetrated the golf club you know it's it's not actually. i think that i was behind the let's get that out of here. and it was about the muscovite let's get them back quickly and cover this rather embarrassing episode up as best we can and that's what they're doing benefited the most from this hastily arranged swap oh the usa usa it was

a propaganda coup. it it reminded i mean the watching world that spying isn't over still goes all and both sides are at it and they know they are we all know they are but perhaps we need reminding because it's been twenty years since the end of the cold war many of us for maybe. ninety nine feet. away in the russian empire. and to save it from the soviets. five hundred tons of gold. dozens of. six hundred fifty million in. the
