say within a year they'll start withdrawing their troops from afghanistan despite almost their reports of attacks there an increasing number of victims in this country how do you think it's because the eyes government able to control the situation without foreign support. it's obvious that cause i's administration is a puppet government managed by occupation forces that this administration is corrupted or it isn't supported by the local population for the withdrawal dates were sent twenty eleven and the end of twenty fourteen initially those dates were determined after president obama's so-called afghan strategic policy was announced included several points just increasing the presence of u.s. forces and that is the u.k. in afghanistan implementing programs for winning members of taliban over to their side and building up afghan forces we see today however that these programs aren't working with the taliban movement has been seizing more control over the territory

government afghan armed forces remain inefficient american and allied forces keep losing more so we wonder whether this policy would result in stabilizing the situation. how does the situation in afghanistan in fact stability in which and in central asia are used. to if there are two factors which strongly affect the situation in the region or drug trafficking and terrorism through a number of politicians in the west and in russia also have until recently seriously believe that the presence of the u.s. and allied troops in afghanistan is good including for russia because the united states and their allies are fighting drug trafficking and terrorism i always prefer giving concrete facts in october two thousand and nine the united nations states in a very professional and comprehensive report absolutely clearly at the time u.s. troops went to afghanistan no drugs were cultivated in the taliban controlled areas . an absolute wreck caught in this respect eight thousand two hundred tons was set

in two thousand and seven after the u.s. troops headed right in afghanistan if you'd like to hear a second in that report mr costa the deputy special representative to the united nations secretary general who's also the head of the u.n. office on drugs and crime said the drugs were not the biggest problem can you imagine it given the fact that thirty or forty thousand russians were nearly dying of drug abuse today these figures a much higher europe also has a high death toll from drugs and terrorism well before the u.s. troops came to afghanistan we had absolutely no trustworthy information about the taliban participation in raids in the territories or central asian states stan in one thousand nine hundred nine. in two thousand on the contrary we know that those militants infiltrated from the territory. to where they've come from northern afghanistan which at that time was being controlled by the northern alliance and a u.s.

ally against the taliban regime. in july and august on another central asian country was hit by massive ethnic clashes with hundred stat is there any danger that we could could see a repeat. of the you know back in april i warned about this kind of scenario for southern which first of all the situation in southern kyrgyzstan had been intensively destabilized the second into ethnic tensions are also high in that region and southern regions of open to that part of. it which borders on afghanistan and that is also open war with so those who want to stage provocations and heats up the situation from the you can easily attract militants. so they will all pre-conditions with the outbreak of violence with the world community it was a pretty. big now we're talking about a death toll in two thousand and huge number of injured simply presented all been destroyed the worst is that the preconditions for. the tensions remain but they

haven't vanished into ethnic tension remains and still there are people interested in kindling ethnic tension preconditions should be eliminated now there are plans to send fifty. policemen it. was supposed to do is something that will fall but what can fifty two unarmed men do. it's not if anything happens to these policemen orders will be given to bring in armed units to start if he's going to send military units there of course it's nato as a u.s. military base in a french air base and a one hundred fifty four thousand nato military contingent in afghanistan with more of the problem if that happens we will witness a very interesting situation that will resemble the one in kosovo by the way at the end of last year the u.s. senate held hearings on the situation in central asia of course five of that report described as a failed state which might disintegrate and the threat of active western interference according to the cost of

a scenario is realistic but many in code to stand don't want to that to happen they would be welcomed russian troops and meet them with bread and salt but in no way the western ones this is a very serious contradiction which may lead to serious consequences. does days ago thousands of secret pentagon documents were leaked to the public why it happened to think. obviously there are political groups who raise the question of the ineffectiveness of u.s. troops intelligence and other services in afghanistan and right now they deliberately dwelling on the war in afghanistan in detail to explain that it's useless they've spent over four hundred billion dollars one american soldier costs one million dollars a year so they spend one hundred billion dollars directly on soldiers apart from the expenses which are high as well and the result is actually nothing you think that's why they start raising such questions and giving publicist tea to various documents. relating it to the issue. that probably the secret

service is. if so why hasn't he been captured or killed. he's a person who knows a lot closely work together with the cia with saudi arabian intelligence he was acquainted with the head of saudi arabian intelligence that. he has a great knowledge of many contacts. agency intelligence closely works with the us intelligence you might be so that somebody is interested in his presence in a certain place americans say that they fight against al qaeda in pakistan and afghanistan but the u.n. reports that in afghanistan there are less than three hundred al qaeda members in comparison with the one hundred fifty four thousand u.s. personnel and according to our information they are no more than one hundred people perhaps even less you understand what this means when there are one hundred or

three hundred terrorists against the one hundred fifty four thousand on me that the symbol should remain now otherwise there's a question are they doing with. one of the major political global events signing a new start treaty between russia and the u.s. how do you think how will. they do an american senate. for all parts they have been hearings in the state duma and the foreign affairs committee of the united russia and the fair russia party support the treaty the liberal democratic party is against it they have a weak argument it's their choice the communists are in doubts and tend to be against it too but all the same we're gathering votes but in the end it depends on the outcome in america of course there are opponents of this treaty who is sure that it does not comply with the u.s. interests let's now turn to another part of the planet north korea which can. between us. and south korean forces and has threatened to respond how do you think

how dangerous is the situation on the korean. north korea would have been destroyed long ago if they did not have ten or twelve warheads nobody knows whether they have them or not for sure but it's enough for military containment for both south korea and america that's why they're holding the exercise there i know little about the north korean regime but i definitely know that it's a very archaic dangerous sort of mixture of the middle ages with the pseudo marxist slogans of this regime is dangerous for the entire world and in my opinion that's the regime we should take for all kinds of sanctions against makes dangerous to threaten them with weapons because we cannot predict their reaction and they also have a several million strong army which can cross the border and this may lead to any number of consequences as an empire and want to keep power which could collapse at any moment the world economy is slowly recovering in a sleigh due to the economic growth in asia and especially in china how big do you

think is the genes for all politics today the third of the work i want you said to be the locomotive of the world economy this is why there are a lot of things that depend on china we should give the chinese credit for having created over the last few decades a powerful economy that in addition to everything else is just around the corner from where we are politically i think the chinese are aimed at strengthening their economic might they're pursuing a very aggressive economic policy everywhere central asia africa and god knows where else even in afghanistan it's a case of expansion directed at grabbing raw material resources china is building up its power base to presumably they have one hundred nuclear warheads more than we believe they have it's a powerful army perspectively it's a very dangerous expansion prone state all of this is pointing to a possibility that sooner or later they're going to embark on a policy of active expansion. it's dangerous for us to say that china is all

strategic and it is one but in relation to that we should also have powerful forces of all right with a powerful economy and be ready for a show of strength and the question many russians and europeans have worried about how real of. a free regime between. i think the e.u. is concerned having a visa free regime with certain central asian states by drugs and the terrorist threat coming from this is why the europeans are wary but basically we should of course seek a visa free regime and it's realistic but we're realistic in the short time is anyone's going to thank you very much simone for.

contest he says he's ready germany used. to belong to me. for this fight. everybody that came out to. it's not going to be long i don't have more to say on september eleventh my crew would talk for me thank you and finally russia's new speed skating coach is baring his team will win medals at the sochi olympics in four years time constant in part of yet so has a job on his hands as russia picks up just two podium finishes at the vancouver games in february which reports. rushes in the middle of a heat wave at least has been some response of a country speed skaters that have a luxury of training in much cooler confines however has plenty of work to be done even with the start of a new season months away and especially for new head coach constantine potter vs who's got the job of trying to make russia a force again in the sport. in my view the problems with the russian speed skating

have been purely psychological we've lost that winning mentality during the soviet union and even at the turn of the millennium we were always winning but unfortunately this isn't happening anymore and i think it has a lot to do with the psychological state of our sportsman full time he had certainly had some pedigree behind him he's worked with the dutch team one of the world's best and coach will him pick champions like spain crema i need involved now he's turning his attention to russia and the country's top speed skater is certainly delighted at his appointment both of us years ago should get experience has experience in the best country or for the peacekeeping i mean the good ones so who are of sniffed up skier if they see any crime or a young girl's young voice they can also work and now we need to change our minds and to work with new programs if international because we don't have a very strong girls they need before you need to go to bed like a delicate work and you think up at six in the morning to eat cereal you must be

a professional and i think you must teach us how to be professionals scoble is a prime example of how low the level of speed skating is reached in russia twenty seven year old who won silver and bronze in vancouver trained in italy with former olympic champion enrico fabrice in the run up to the games as this offered him a much higher level of coaching however scott would have says he's going to come back to russia to train falling poll diving it's appointment. follow russian team of holocaust band i promise it to my president the new president of russia is getting out of solution to. trade. to follow in the tried to help myself the state foster of course the freshman coach and all the russian. stuff for some guys for us national team constantine full time he had to once competed for the u.s. a song has a tough job on his hands he says there's plenty of potential but now it's all about working to try and turn that potential into gold medals come to sochi olympics in

four years time richard boldly donte moscow. and that's all the sport for this person. if.

a lifeline the russian government's much needed drive to update chechnya as medical facilities to help the seriously ill in the caucasus. with news from russia and around the world you're watching our live from moscow where at seven pm first stop forest fires which are spreading through central russia have claimed more than forty lives the on president a tape wave that sparked the blazes has left moscow suffocating under a blanket of heavy smog r.c.n. the target novikov is in the heart of the capital and peter all over has been looking into the fire at a military air base. we have heard from the military and they've confirmed that there was a fire however saying that this fire took place not with the. equipment was worth so much money where these airplanes were but in a place where hardware in vehicles were being stored over the stands at the moment

no genesis been able to get in to actually to see what has been destroyed by those fires all around russia many places that people just can't go to try and find out what is happening because the the fi is are so severe also in central russia in the south of region there's an ongoing military firefighting operation to try and make sure that the flames don't get too close to a major new chiller facility in that area most as a state of emergency has been called in seven russian regions we've seen over forty people killed so far in these and these fires across the country more than three hundred injured and two thousand homes so approximately of being destroyed by the fire is plenty being done by the government actually the house just behind me i was talking to some locals it actually caught fire on thursday and it's just the ground all around me is still smoldering it's still very very hot a pro apparent.
