fill us in on what progress has been made i'm never joined by his press secretary not that it's a makeover that i do thank you very much for joining me. in his article go russia publish last year the president named corruption as one of the biggest problems slowing down the country's development according to some figures it's volume which is around half of the uli g.d.p. what's changed since then. did a year ago in his article go russia president made a bed of gave a detailed and unflattering account of the situation russia is currently in it was not unflattering in the meaning of critical authored previous period and previous achievements no on the contrary they were giving credit but it was stated that the model of development russia had chosen and pursued until now is no longer viable the president named a number of reasons that stand in the way of the country's development corruption was named as a major reason for delay in development it is true that now competition is possible

and till we have a well built and up to date judicial system until we combat corruption and have fair unbiased courts and on as an unbiased law enforcement personnel and without all this it will be hard for russia to secure a good place on the global scene oh sue both in this article and his other speeches the president said that the task of combating corruption is quite challenging regrettably illegal nihilism is typical not only of some layers of our society in the first place of it law enforcement agencies which have greatest problems with corruption and at the bureaucratic machine it is generally typical of the whole society and most of the people every one of us has ideas that are far from ideal about how various issues must be settled the brightest example we always mansion is the dealings with traffic police officials and required a few examples like this. therefore naturally the task to overcome corruption is set for more than one two or even four years it requires much more time because it

requires not only some changes in legislation introducing more rigid rules for state officials businesses and courts but first info most it requires a change in the public opinion of these things obviously it will take time but nevertheless many steps have been made over this year to start implementing the ideas outlined in the president's article i remind you that since last year the state officials are required to publish their tax return reports both for themselves and for their family members. in addition to that the anti-corruption council had by the president as active a number of amendments to the end and legislation have been adopted i'd like to recap where not expecting immediate results it would be strange to expect them right now it is obvious that it is a long term scheme which will continue and which will remain a priority on the president's agenda. russia is one of the biggest oil producers in the world but that has led to an economic dependency is there anything else that

can take the place of patrol dollars. the president said that the country's dependence on oil and gas industry and oil prices has become devastating for our economy of course such a large country with such a large population and such a large number of open social issues should not build its economy and its economic expectations purely on the global oil and gas prices it would be a strange and unhealthy dependence that is why the president brought up the subject of modernization and the necessity to switch to new innovative economic development patterns in order to have other major souces for our budget than merely oil and gas we have made good progress over this year first of all large projects such as skolkovo have been launched last year it was just an idea while today. it's a food scope legal project with clearly defined tax preferences and with a clearly defined team its overseas partners are adding in number it has been

joined by such global companies as cisco and nokia and we could be saying that this project must become to some extend the engine of the bruises and show how the economy can be built and how money can be made in other ways to rather than buy oil and gas moreover and number of decisions have been made to support small and medium sized businesses in the aspect of innovative technologies and we hope that this measures will yield results and the taxes turned in by the small and medium sized businesses will no longer be earned on the processing or resounding of goods but on innovative projects. these worst in would you go first to a tax or more schools metro in mortgage and various incidents in the south of russia have me this year very uneasy many people lost their lives what's being done to fight terror. the president believes that modernization is impossible without solving that problem despite the fact that we had a number of serious terrorist attacks this year in which unfortunately many people

were killed our law enforcement agencies have been quite effective for instance they managed to arrest several people who were behind the most serious terrorist attacks incidentally i'd like to point out that this is an improvement because in the past security forces rarely were able to capture terrorists alive so now a number of terrorists have been arrested and interrogated the terrorist organized the blasts in the moscow metro have all been killed. so this work is going on all the time perhaps it's not that old this at times but it is definitely a priority similar tanny asli this story it is where to improve the social economic situation in the north caucuses as you know alexander who are born in was appointed the president's authorized representative in the region and at the same time has the rank of the deputy prime minister his main job is to attract investors to the north caucasus and to create jobs there we hope that this measures will ease social

tensions that terrorists often take advantage of. it was out of the world for that region across russia tested the whole country this summer taking many regions by surprise who is to blame rescuers see they're not responsible for preventing forest fires forest officers claim we don't have the money to deal with all of them is enough being done to prevent such disasters in the future. this situation with wildfires this year was very serious and unfortunately it did not only destroy buildings but it killed many people too which of course is the worst outcome of these fires showed that local authorities in many places were not ready to protect people issue warnings they also showed that there is a serious shortage of equipment necessary to fight the fires we will draw a necessary conclusions from this the president prime minister and government by working on this there is a mutual understanding that the measures that were taken were not enough and there

needs to be a more systematic approach to this work the president recently had in meeting where this issues were discussed changes could be made to forestry legislation so that our forests would be better protected from fires we need to define responsibilities of local and federal authorities because unfortunately in many cases the main reasons for tragedies were negligence or failure to follow fire safety regulations there were no fences and necessary buoys in the forest which led to the rapid spread of fire also this natural disaster show that we need to get better more modern equipment in many places they still use fire trucks from the nine hundred thirty s. they're totally outdated and all respects of course we need to have the latest equipment so that this never happens again. read about them. judging by their comments a lot of people who read the president's vision expressed skepticism about reforms to the country's political system how can you make people believe change is

possible what guarantees can you give. us. the president talked about it in his article modernization in russia has usually taken place for some harsh measures just think about the reforms of peter the great or stalin's modernization it was in no way democratic it was done through totalitarian means many people felt victims of this modernization so it is a big question whether or not the end justify the means that is why and he's article the president talked about how difficult the path of modernization was if we want to do it now in the developed democratic society of course as he rise in his article mordant society requires a mordant political structure it could be different in every country but it is clear that the room you chilled value is mutual improved his value of human life freedom of the being in freedom of speech freedom of religion private property of

course all those things that are up how did russia have to be protected and implemented as part of the political system that we are building. the president has proposed a number of amendments to legislation this him and meant allow the opposition to participate in the life of the country there have been cases where civil society appealed to the president directly and received a response that past example is the situation around the him to forest it got the president's attention after the opposition as well as united russia asked him to stop the process of clearing the woods and study the situation in more depth but the president has mentioned the issue several times it is important for authorities to stay in constant dialogue with civil society with its representatives expresses certain opinions so that there is always consensus on all issues. i think it will all the changes mentioned in the article can happen overnight does

president need to read of plan to run for second term to see through all the reforms he envisions. i don't think that's the right way to look at it the point is not just the second term the point is that like you said it will take more time than just a year or two to implement the plans declared by the president. the modernization engendered put forward by the head of state is supported by both the majority of society and the government that is why solving this problems goes beyond the framework of one presidential term this is gender is not just some program that has been put together haphazardly it deals with serious urgent problems that have to be addressed. thank you very much for joining me this was the. president of russia.

russia is that so much of it which of course you want to hear it's an angry all pervasive right wing media particularly television and radio are enormously influential in the u.s. for some. to live in a country that don't understand that there's more violence in the streets of this country than there are in the streets in afghanistan or baghdad. one night in this. race or. does it. that i'm. proud of this moment. to speak of the.

sergeant of the israeli defense forces. during his service scorched the street fight. on the kernel of the chilean armed forces participated in keeping down a military revolt. the sergeant of the u.s. army. trying to become an american by digging part in the. ranks and reasons differ but one thing brings them together once they disobey. if.

president medvedev says the u.s. shouldn't be jealous about a new security agreement between russia and europe which would help everyone speaking at the global policy forum in euro slava he also said the speed of development in the country shows only those with four memories still accused russia

from russia against their all foes out the world championships this week constantine to top off reports. one final for russia was regarded is a good result beforehand for a team lacking the biggest stars so david lot side had nothing to lose in this one and in fact victory over the u.s. would have been considered a sensation the russians produce and to start from the table feeling confident clean the fans and trading three point shots nothing really separating the two teams that band of the first quarter twenty five all the games stayed just as tight in the second american armed reducing the difference to just a single point here russia then went thirty five thirty up but that was the biggest gap they would muster the u.s. taking control scoring the next twelve points including a floating bowling from kevin durant the third quarter saw the americans move up yet another year lots chargers simply couldn't keep up to speed we tried very hard to. force them out of there we're going to force them out of their style of

play there are memories that we were successful but for the most part in all fairness in all honesty despite. just by keeping it the game was in the control of the american team chauncey billups and watson who is broke within a day at this stage from going for fifteen points then americans double digit lead increased well there was well as much break way down in the last quarter they could flee with an eighteen point lead and it was clear that the game was in the bag long before the final boss of eighty nine seventy nine how it would finish drew on the key player on the course going thirty three points for microchips team cool place two three any of her place in the final point on a better job which is making the easy pass i think you know. sometimes you try to make we call it a play maybe a behind a back pass or a forecourt pass me just making a right play. so you know we still got

a long way to go on that area but i think we've got better since you know some credit must go to the russian team though who fought on two. george. moving to football where portugal are on the hunt for a new manager following the sucking of carlos queiroz the move coming a week after the fifty seven year old was handed a six month suspension for disrupting an doping test that plus portugal's recent her performances at the world cup and twenty twelve qualifying believed to be the reason. to rush out a full two years remaining on his contract with his lawyer so i can see the former real madrid manager chisti united assistant coach had been at the helm. joining. seem a lot of officially unveiled new signings were being put on him of each the brazilian cost the italian giants around eighteen million euros while the swede joins on a free from barcelona for
