in moscow ots available in marriage granted to rich coats and royal marriage renaissance marriage profiles a holiday in circles under the in-laws not holiday in the social ski patrol in the radio national in the region country club so feeling sure to find this piece of the first or a booklet called sure convinced switzer told cousin the whole bill to let me go to golden liberty coaching. one of russia's most wanted men the suspected chechen terrorists document that coyote is said to have arrived in poland spike threats from a far g.'s to arrest him. about the rest is as unclear
1:03 pm
as the information regarding his whereabouts find out more on our team. and russia has its sights on reaching an arctic agreement with canada hot on the heels of signing a demarcation pact with norway. the us senate panel is set to vote on the start treaty and if the nuclear consulate is announced it will head to the full opera house for approval. it's nine pm in moscow and this is art to you coming to you live with me new sanaa way first this hour one of russia's most wanted terrorist suspects is said to have entered poland despite the country's threat to arrest him upon arrival commits a copy of his thought to be attending an international chechen congress near warsaw
1:04 pm
he currently lives in britain where he has political asylum because it is following the latest developments. at the moment it's all very confusing and very unclear because even his whereabouts are at this moment unconfirmed and the very fact that polish authorities would say in advance that they would arrest the man should here arrive in its territory is somewhat confusing as well because it is not unknown for law enforcement agencies to give their suspect a warning of an imminent to arrest so this could just be yet another pocketing statement towards russia that they will arrest the man should he arrives because of course there is an outstanding interpol arrest warrant for an issue for me it's a cry of he's wanted by russia on a number of different charges but even of the process even if they do detain him the process is a very complicated one the prosecution can't exactly lead on the police and make
1:05 pm
him detain the man and even if they do after an initial period of detention a polish court will then have to decide whether there are grounds for further detaining mr zentai of and of course then the entire matter of his extradition to russia has to be decided by yet another country the united kingdom which has granted him political asylum in two thousand and three it is very unlikely the us up by a full be facing trial in russia any time soon of course he has been granted political asylum in the united kingdom is seven years ago and since then russia has repeatedly asked its. british colleagues to hand the man over to extradite him so that he could stand trial here in russia that of course he faces charges of homicide kidnapping extortion and various the terrorists and extremists have to vittie so a large number of crimes that he's accused of and yet the united kingdom insists that this is a client is a political refugee that he has remained a law abiding citizen on its territory and therefore the agreement that russia and
1:06 pm
the united kingdom have between them to share and extradite all those accused of various crimes in each other's territories that agreement to. not stand because of course he has been granted political asylum so the question of his standing trial in russia is a very unlikely one even if he is detained in poland and then later sent back to the united kingdom. well john laughlin from the institute of democracy and cooperation in paris says that if poland arrests this will be a considerable step forward in prosecuting terrorist suspects i think there's no doubt that if poland were to disown him it would be an enormous breakthrough for russia certainly in the fight against terrorism but more generally in its new. political friendship with its neighbors we've seen over the last year and a half big turnaround in western foreign policy towards russia it's very important to understand that there is a link between the caucasus and between russia's enemies in central and eastern
1:07 pm
europe there are links between the people from the north caucasus from the baltic states and we can see that the world church in congress itself is being held in poland so the caucasus has always been a political lever which russia's enemies have used to to basically undermine russia and if as i say poland were to abandon that policy by a resting zachariah if something which would presumably finish off the world church in congress or at least this meeting of it that would be an extraordinarily important and symbolic step. and canada are neck and neck in a race for the arctic's rich resources odd was challenging moscow's claims to a portion of the polar sea bed but russia says he won't give up your corpus cannot has more on the north in dispute. both russia and canada remained firm at their stances claiming that the arctic seabed known as the a woman also fridge belongs to
1:08 pm
bear territory's moscow says that its claims are based on scientific fact and according to the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov russia will continue sending expeditions to this area of the limo and also the woman also bridge was discovered by russian explorers but today we want to prove scientifically that it's a continuation of our main line in providing our data to the un as does canada and now denmark is also thinking about lean clean to the woman also of ridge but any such claim must be based upon scientific data provided to the un commission and do you have the last word in any case in two thousand and seven a group of russian scientists to descend a dawn to be alone also fridge study of it and found concrete conclusions that it is a continuation of the russian landmass they've been planted a russian flag there meanwhile canada has also filed claims on the states are you saying back to the a woman also for h.
1:09 pm
is port off the canadian stage or yes we will submit our data on the loan is awfully age and we're confident that our case will prevail by scientific evidence the arctic is a huge area and currently doesn't belong to any country but at the same time it's thought to hold up to twenty percent of the world's untapped resources of gas and oil which makes it quite an attractive area for many countries up port from russia and canada other states are also keen to stablish themselves in the octaves and they include the united states denmark and norway according to some analysts this me we need to some type of conflict just now during the meeting in moscow the foreign ministers of russia and canada have pledged to resolve the state or dispute . strictly diplomatically and scientifically and there is already an example of how
1:10 pm
such a dispute could be resolved peacefully just recently russia and norway resolved a decade so wallner to dispute all their borders in the bar and see no be agreed first of all to stablish the border and also to share the natural resources which are held in that area so hopefully that will be done in the in the case of russia and canada as well. arty's you go there now it's coming up to eight minutes past the hour coming up for you later in the program and join our close up to you as we explore russian far east and the wonders of the second region. tucked in between the russian mainland japan and the suckling island is the island of minute on named after french seafarer who discovered it it is described as the pride of the succulent region we'll take a look at what's in store for us here. on our t.v. a sting operation for the former front man of the police find out why russian

communists want to rock are behind stone walls and iron bars. and moscow hopes the u.s. is getting a step closer to ratifying the latest nuclear arms reduction agreement the senate foreign relations committee is holding new hearings on the start treaty before submitting it to the rest of the senate for final approval under the agreement both countries will cut their nuclear arsenals by a third russia lawmakers are ready to ratify the document but want to find off at the same time as washington the head of russia's state duma foreign affairs committee spoke about the main reasons preventing the u.s. from getting started quicker. the major problem is that this time of the year is that if occasion process in the states coincides entirely with the election campaign one search of the senate is to be reelected which means that many senators consider this situation not in terms of whether this agreement is good or bad for
1:12 pm
the united states but in terms of how much it may contribute to their own electoral campaign and it's bad because the document itself is too much important for the national interest of the united states for the national interest of russia for the global national interest to be mixed up with anything else our colleagues in the senate intend to supply the certification law with complimentary interpretations statement and this of course makes this situation a little bit unbalanced i believe that in case it happens we on the russian side will have to come back to this issue again analyze the interpretation statement which is probably to be approved by the committee of the senate and in case it will be needed do something similar so we have many are no defectors and i hope that we will be able to ratify the treaty by a literal on both sides by the end of this year this is the most realistic date.
