2:34 am
americans to vietnam there was a lot of drug abuse there was a lot of murder of american officers by american soldiers there were a lot of good stories. to go out and buy. these tools of war i always thought i wanted to win a lot of medals and wanted to have a lot of decorations but afterwards i realize that they don't mean anything. that importance. i don't i don't i never kept the medal. morning's today violence is once again flared up. these are the images go for it has been seeing from the streets of canada. china corporations are today.
2:35 am
but first mr kraft well thank you for joining us today sochi has hosted the summit of the second of its kind after the july session last year and. this is me russia is strengthening its position in the region where it's always been present and is opening up new opportunities for cooperation primarily with afghanistan and pakistan things than. you do much better if you have three minutes of course. i think that russia is trying to strengthen its position russia is trying to reserve its position in the settlement process in afghanistan via this quartet you know to achieve this goal which is really important for both afghanistan and for the region as a whole as well as for russia these regular events take place pakistan has one view on the afghan crisis stan has another view russia may have yet another position but
2:36 am
as for russia entergy christan it's obvious that they want to settle the situation in the country as soon as possible they are concerned with terrorism and with drug production and trafficking that's where pakistan has been playing a double game over the past forty years virtually they express the willingness to fight terrorism but in fact and everyone knows that everything that is now going on in afghanistan has pakistani origins pakistani influence and impact if it was not for the external power played by pakistan terrorism would still exist but it would be of a minor character a minor insurgent character nothing more in this respect it is important that russia is more active in discussing the afghan issue with the countries of the region. that i've go you've mentioned the drug trafficking issue the statistics say that about thirty thousand people in russia and nearly died because of drugs coming from of ghana stan how can the american presence in
2:37 am
afghanistan hope resolve this problem and can russia solve it on its own the problem with us congress. you have to have fought to finish a little make sure the point is the status of the international forces the u.n. mandate stipulates their participation in anti-drug measures from time to time they take part in such operations but it sporadic and aimed at small producers and small smugglers carrying out anti-terrorist operations they come across some drug caravans destroy them of course but nothing more at a recent international conference in moscow nato refused to state that nato troops must fight narcotics they fear that it will only pose a greater threat to them and aggravate their position what is terrorism afghan terrorism nobody has given a precise and understandable definition yet even the highest ranking american generals who have been leading nato troops over there. president obama plans to begin pulling out troops from afghanistan next summer how realistic
2:38 am
is this the afghan authorities be capable of controlling the situation by themselves. over the past nine months the position of the american authorities has changed considerably on the one hand american congress the house of representatives and most importantly the democratic party categorically insist on a considerable pullout of american troops from afghanistan starting july first two thousand and one otherwise they would face a great challenge at the upcoming two thousand and eleven elections on the other hand the u.s. military commander especially after the start of david petraeus his term as a f. commander has been looking for excuses to delay president obama's decision or to postpone it you must remember that the larger part of the u.s. military serves interests of the republican party and so does the u.s. defense minister. i get frequent calls from the u.s. journalists asking what the u.s. should do in the current situation and whether they should withdraw their troops
2:39 am
next july i usually respond with a question of my own but is there an alternative there is not there is no alternative to the complete withdrawal of u.s. troops the longer the forces u.s. and nato forces stay in afghanistan the more they will destabilize the region it's evident that the presence of any foreign troops nato u.s. or soviet troops will only inspired terrorism in afghanistan you cannot depict the country as a den of terrorism or its people as terrorists by default this is not true there is a faction of people within the rebel movement that use terror methods some of these people do indeed have links to al-qaeda in no way does this mean that any afghan or any armed afghan is a terrorist the us is facing a philosophical problem if they spent nine years there by december two thousand and ten the length of their military presence will match that of the soviet contingent now over this period they have failed to understand the afghans outlook on life
2:40 am
they do not understand afghanistan barack obama is now facing the gorbachev dilemma of whether to withdraw u.s. forces if you pulls them out it will be bad if he doesn't it will go from bad to worse i am deeply convinced that barack obama should do the same thing that mikhail gorbachev did with afghanistan there is no other way he could. learn from us. we have received information about the taliban making a proposition to nato to jointly investigate civilian deaths in afghanistan just how realistic and serious is that offer. no i don't think it's serious i mean i'd like to say that the taliban movement is quite formal structure it is basically a successor to the mujahideen movement that was active during the soviet military presence in afghanistan it has not changed much since then the way propaganda is spread hasn't changed either and i would regard this offer as part of the propaganda war the taliban is obviously winning it by the way it's obviously being
2:41 am
the u.s. as for the offer itself even if the u.s. or nato was to agree to it i don't think the taliban would play an active role in the investigation of these unpleasant and difficult incidents the first we're going to have with you stanley because sathan in afghanistan or pakistan is affecting other countries including russia but could russia. secure regina in this region particularly. if no single stakeholder in the region will be able to do anything on their own the us tried to do so but failed they brought in the nato contingent and failed again i can say that countries in the region with their different stances and viewpoints will never come to consensus on the afghan crisis in order to find ways to settle the conflict outside of the region we will certainly have to draw neighboring countries into the peace process iran pakistan tajikistan and definitely pakistan as well as russia and kazakhstan russia's afghanistan's
2:42 am
historical partner and vice versa if the u.s. and nato states have never been afghanistan's partners they don't understand the fundamentals of the region the only country that can provide for a reproach me between iran back to stand pakistan until she can stand as russia this i think is one of the major goals of the sochi summit. the united states of america is waging war within its own army. jono advantage is on no one side. and human losses are quite significant. is it possible to win the war against sexual assault in the us armed forces sex in the army. extracting black gold is dangerous. demond pushes the limits to
2:43 am
catastrophe. is the price. is it possible to prevent such disasters. and can be off to must be dealt with quickly and effectively. oil spills and thrills. signed up to join the military because i thought that it was my duty not that it was something that i do to help my country. my government but that it is necessary for america to vietnam there was a lot of drug abuse the lot of murder of american officers by american soldiers there were a lot of. the problem. before the war i always thought i wanted to win a lot of medals to have
2:44 am
a lot of decorations but afterwards i realize that they don't mean anything. that importance. i don't i don't i never kept the medal. they sing state this is not a robot chicken little or no. pay for it and we shall see everybody assured us a pretty tree species they have no idea about the hardships that we face. plate one it's the says it all going to need some. or any are made of the life
