in the world today russia of course wants a bigger role and it's a development in its ambitions because it has a lot of potential but the russian leader he was very pleased about his visit everything starting with the weather which he said was a reflection on how good the relationship between moscow and i know is whether here has been perfect blue skies very warm not too hot not too cold he also spoke about his experience of saying that for some russians it might be a little too spicy but he actually prefers that way so it was a very pleasurable experience for him not only did he manage to take an experience he also met a grand so during a later part of his program he met one vietnamese lady who said that was somewhat of a role model for her and that her biggest wish would be to shake his head the russian president said that is possibly one of the easiest wishes to grant and proceeded to do exactly that shaking ladies had he certainly seemed pretty good impressions for

everyone so far. artie's because he knows our reporting there from hanoi. in other news this week russia and georgia could be entangled in a spy scandal with reports to the sea detained twenty people on friday for espionage now known as source quoted by reuters that those detained are all georgian and are suspected of being part of a spy network gathering information for moscow the georgian interior ministry has so far refused to comment and says it won't do so until next week russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov said moscow was not aware of any details as there are no diplomatic relations between the two countries well experts say tbilisi is of asian shows how authoritarian the country really is when someone is arrested they're entitled to due process that means they can call a lawyer that family members can be contacted therefore arrests are announced and

it never happens i can't tell you how bizarre it is to hear a police spokesman say. i can neither confirm board to lawrie that arrests have taken place the secret arrests are the hallmarks of a police state there is a new law before the georgian parliament which is called the freedom charter and it's something akin to the patriot act in the united states it will drastically increase the powers of the security service past its first reading of the in the georgian part arlott recently and it is possible that someone is trying to whip up . a social mood to support. well one of the country's opposition leaders says tbilisi uses the fly does the link to russia as an excuse to prosecute . this kind of charges russian links russian ties russian the spinach is always used in georgia just political propaganda i just know about these

people but i know that it's quite enough to be some holding three zero. knowing your spinach may be there but if you are failing business you are showing your family that i show you everything georgia is quite enough for georgia law enforcement officials too many criminals. coming up in a few minutes here in our t.v. ethnically diverse iraqi city of kirkuk is a real tender box we take a break from the site becoming a hotbed for terror attacks. and in brazil the incoming leader will have to deal with the enormous gap between rich and poor learned about their first stops in. the first ever joint us russian anti drugs operation in war torn afghanistan has been held a success special forces knocked out for drug labs on the afghan border with pakistan and confiscated a ton of heroin worth hundreds of millions of dollars while afghan president hamid

karzai condemned the operation claiming it violated the country's sovereignty but russian officials say cars i statement as confusing as the raid was led by the afghan interior ministry the operation marks russia's return to afghanistan twenty years after soviet troops withdrew from a decade long war against them was a crime scene insurgents parties katrina reports help for some. of the u.s. led anti drugs came as a complete shock if the board this one died so did this one group or do and this one or this one died too. well this one was just leg. and they've got a mash is showing his corporate skilled in the soviet war in afghanistan two decades ago only four out of the fourteen in this picture made it out alive andrei was a command over mine disposal unit in kandahar in two years his school to the last

thirty five people dozens of others lost limbs a third of all mines used against soviet soldiers were american mate most of the us were enemy which supplied the mujahideen with a quick mental weapons medicine it was american strong amazones which helped shoot done our planes for. two decades after the soviet army is axid and great will stay can a back to find out that russia was back in afghanistan again this time with its former anime. these are the pictures he saw on the news reports food truck producing lapse on the border between afghanistan and pakistan were destroyed in a special rate and a ton of peregrine worth over two hundred million dollars. after we gave the information to our u.s. and afghan partners the three sides of the operation for three months we used about

seventy special forces units three landing helicopters and six supporting ones the whole operation lasted less and all around was. but many experts say washington needed a push before it started to act it's unbelievable to me that it took russia to tell the united states where the drug labs were when we have a hundred thousand troops we've spent eighty billion dollars on intelligence we have a hundred thousand additional contractors so we had to know were crawling all over every inch of that country but it took you know two in fact two out the united states to force us and to embarrass us to cooperate with you to stop the drug trade which is in the interest of the entire world including the united states with more of the truck passing through its food has than any other country russia is convinced that the scan which must be confronted it is however those who know firsthand what fighting in afghanistan is like learning against being drawn into

a full scale war with a company and. of course it should be special operations carried out against drug cartels but again special units should be in charge of this nineteen year old boys should not be recruited for the job every single abrasion should be planned in detail starting on intelligence sections of the operation itself and the wrapping up of the operation it's easy to get trapped in this war it's hard to get out of it as long as islamist militancy and drunks emanating from afghanistan are seen as a threat. back to its national security rush is likely to remain a force in the region even as the u.s. works out an x. it strategy. faced with a bigger war is sound less reliable neighbors say in the region the united states and nato appear willing to accept growing russian influence at this point they need all the help they can get at the gathering florrie opportunity in afghanistan is

a sign russia is back and this time around not as the us cold war anomie but as a modern day ally it's in the back of our team moscow. iraqi lawmakers are demanding their government investigate allegations of war crimes the plea comes a week after the online whistleblower wiki leaks released four hundred thousand secret u.s. documents on the war in iraq but the files detail american forces handing prisoners over to iraqi interrogators despite overwhelming evidence of torture it out also shed light on fifteen thousand killings over the past six years which had previously been unaccounted for iraq's prime minister nouri al maliki says the revelations are aimed at undermining the country's political stability but that's an overreaction and an unlikely motivation for the leak according to one leading expert on the country. i think that would be very doubtful to imagine the wiki leaks the soldiers responsible for giving these documents to them have the

undermining of the iraqi government in mind when they chose this date let's bear in mind that there hasn't been an iraqi government for seven months so please if there's many dates to choose from when it comes to releasing this in a sense this is u.s. military documents so ultimately unlike any previous media story or total report from iraq this is words from their own mouth which makes it very difficult for them to deny it and they're not really doing that if you actually listen to what the pentagon and state department spokesman is saying what they talk about is the critical nature of the nature of the leaks and whether u.s. soldiers or informers or people working with the u.s. will be put in danger by them talking about the method of the message rather than the message itself now the message itself paints a very different picture of the iraq the americans have been telling us about the last seven years some fifteen thousand iraqi deaths have not been accounted for so the history of iraq is being written by these documents which are as i say from the americans miles themselves. well of course fifty thousand u.s.

troops remain in iraq to train and support local security forces but in many places like kurdish controlled care cook the legacy of the american led invasion remains an uncertain one people there feel fear civil war could eventually erupt as the bastion meyer now reports. a dawn raid a race against time to catch militants off guard in the iraqi province of kirkuk where in the suburb of duck cook and the police have just a few minutes to get into position before sunrise. daybreak's in the raid begins police under the supervision of the u.s. army go door to door searching rooms and checking residents against lists of unknown terrorists. dominated heavily by kurds have been remarkably successful recently they've cut terror attacks by over fifty percent in the past few months these guys are very good they are very good and they're very good at intelligence and develop they are gathering intelligence and developing intelligence and the

other submerged wrong place for him not worried about it but others mainly the city's non kurds are here in downtown they're going to get them by the nature of her charity target where are you with their own historic claim of the kirkuk is a unique city in iraq a true melting pot of all the different ethnicities in the country but this mixture continues to lead to extremely volatile ethnic tensions a two thousand and nine field report that was recently leaked by the whistleblower wiki leaks states that without strong and fair influence likely from a third party these tensions may quickly turn to violence after the u.s. forces withdraw. in terms of security when the us leaves it will be no independent security force right now the security is from the kurdish side of the city this is the truth when the us leaves things will get worse it will be conflicts arabs will stand up and prayed and we should say with the mayor and this well. i got for a bit but words will begin between us and we are not an example of this violence

wasn't long in coming no more than five minutes after we finished the interview a roadside bomb targeting the police detonated in the center of the city. luckily for the police the terrorists missed it appears that despite the gains that the police are making. the american troop withdrawal could easily lead to or turn to sectarianism in kirkuk for kurds arabs and turkoman alike the consequences of the u.s. led war have left the future of kirkuk very much uncertain sebastian meyer care cook for r t. y from the russian capital here with r.t. coming up for you this hour the streets of moscow are flooded with vampires devils and pumpkin things that celebrate halloween find out more here on our team. this week global warming skeptics in the u.k. mark the second anniversary of what they have dubbed climate fool's day two years ago as the british parliament was debating a bill to tackle climate change the earliest snow in over seventy years fell in

monday while activists claimed the chilly coincidence was just more proof that the bill is a waste of taxpayers' money environmental author of philip foster insists climate change is a natural thing and man's actions don't have any effect there's not a particularly dramatic rise in c o two. anyway carbon dioxide does not affect the climate i think that's a fundamental statement that is the misconnection that the climate warming. alarmists may but there is climate change of course but that is a natural thing but no it isn't due to man's actions anyway man's amount of carbon dioxide represents a tiny proportion of the shift anyway about four percent whether extreme events always take place always have and always will blame them on human emissions is simply. pointless because there is no real connection. there from environmental officer philip foster germany's reevaluating its multicultural

society after the chancellor said efforts to build it have utterly failed and go on merkel says immigrants need to do more to integrate and learning the language of their new homeland should be our priority now is our first reports more and more germans feel foreigners are taking over. really. learn the language of good and accept. we need to have a place where the message to immigrants in germany integration tough talk from the german chancellor controversial speech recently branded multiculturalism. that it to date on an extremely sensitive issue. which is also called gaza strip because that's how my blood up to the yes box becomes more and more arabia with high immigration over the past few decades germany has seen the

developments of monocultural communities such as new cologne in west berlin foreign influence in this area really is very evident you got a lot of foreign find a porn shop fronts and activists the question is about education failure is well and crime within immigrant and you've got real problems with many of these popping in for president says a lot of people fill holes about immigration. the recent survey conducted by the foundation in germany found that almost a third of respondents felt that immigrants were coming to exploit the country's welfare system and should be sent home when jobs were scarce almost the same amount the country is being overrun by foreigners here you have a mixture you have a german here and you have english here and english here and this is turkish this is this is nice so everybody can read but if it is only. turkish people they

feel strange when they think where am i living this is an arabian city merchant the ensuing to date has focused on muslim immigrants with migrant families reluctant to integrate into a society that they feel it's prejudice against them i don't think that changing my personality the way i look the way our talk or my even my mother tongue would change. have an effect on the german culture projects like this local community center aiding integration and teaching children the german language from an early age but with few bilingual arabic or take. families likenesses sending their children to private schools where they do not yet learn german despite the tough rhetoric from the top germany acknowledges that immigration is desirable for its economy that migrants have to be willing to

integrate we need people in all of the industrial countries because we have not so many kids anymore i have no kids not of germans have no kids so where should the kids come from to work and help the industry going on so we need people from other countries to come in get it himself. talk much in society if they knew how often they misunderstood others and a major challenge now with the faith. would be to chime bridge cultural divides which have been simmering quietly for a long time. sarah. palin. to brazil now where people are voting for a new successor to the highly popular president nuno the silva in the first round earlier this month dilma rousseff got more votes than her main rival shows etc it's widely expected that will take power and will become the country's first woman head of state millions below the poverty line have benefited from the current president
