based around the energy could go away scientists propose a lifelong source of green energy that could save you to your face but something the revolutionary nuclear fuel is just hot air. at seven pm in the russian capital and this is r t coming to you live with me and isa now way thanks for being with us first stop most cow has dubbed an acceptable to pants diplomatic protest over dimitri made visits visit to russia's southern korea islands tokyo which claims to four islands as its own said the president's trip was regrettable and summoned russia's ambassador to japan well the islands lie in the pacific and are part of a larger russian held archipelago to the north of japan they came under moscow's control at the end of world war two and the region has rich fishing grounds and

mineral deposits it's also believed to have vast oil and gas reserves are just exxon the boy has more on the territorial dispute it's a leftover from the second world war old soviet tanks rusting on. sure but their barrels pointed towards your pan the cornish your island together three other pacific islands was taking over by the soviet union sixty five years ago but the tussle to define its national identity still goes on. these cross appeared here a few years ago soon after the russian orthodox church opened its parish on the island of katon to dicky to phoenix population window on and is now in the midst of a baby will. we have the highest birth rates in the entire region where a lot of young people votes of servicemen offices and their living standards are quite decent nowadays there are many kids here and parents bring them to be

baptized it's wonderful to have children on the island. building the church is part of the russian government's effort to raise the living standards of the korean island beach here means a reinforcing national identity. all but the band and in the nine hundred ninety s. the audience saw a large influx of japanese charities and officials trying to persuade the locals that they might be much better off if the aunts were under japanese administration as you know if we get the owners bark we would move the russians who live there we know how painful it is then you look for them citizenship i'm going to but this is precisely why the president is here to tell the locals that russia has not forgotten about them and while the regional authorities tried to paint a prey to picture the road city bumbling infrastructure betrayed the honest chronic financial problems so. it's an important part of our land we would definitely

insist money into the region. reach in buyer and mineral resources the audience have been a bone of contention over to think trees russia held them briefly in the nineteenth century losing a war to japan took his defeat in the second world war a lot left to gain control of the territories which prevented the two sides from signing a formal peace treaty the president's visit wasn't on the japanese side tokyo sad the trip was regrettable and her japanese public sentiment. japan's reaction to president visits trip to the pool islands is unacceptable it is our last elections and the russian president was visiting a russian territory i'm sure we've already strangers to our japanese partners. under international law the real island on the quickly belong to russia but due to geographic and economic reasons it's a residence a form of we can get to japan than to the mainland. and while russia may be in

their hearts japan is still vying for their minds erica huma mortar is teaching japanese at ashika town school his celery speed by the japanese government i don't know how cause is a very popular when you come to the school the children are already waiting for me amanda people who i see there many people who came here last year i'm happy here sometimes it seems to me that i am with my family again and here class seventh graders study alongside their parents who hope to get a job in japan life at the career law lands may have proved in recent years but the white saw just applying the horizon of some work of art in russia's far east well political analyst veges love you can have says there's no sign of a diplomatic solution to the russian japan territorial conflict in the near future there should be a strong political will on the both sides but when the japanese call them until the japanese government claims that the islands are ours period. they do not leave any

space for diplomacy i don't think there is much economics. is not critically important for japan which is quite self-sufficient it is a political symbol there are a few political symbols in japanese policy is japan has territorial quarrels with every single neighbor every job was not just politicians but most of the public in japan i think. there is in russia of course people just do not understand why japan country which was allied to hitler we fought against our allies like the united states the united kingdom china should be rewarded by giving them the islands which were taken away after world war two. in other news a deadly siege in baghdad by a group of militants on sunday ended with fifty two dead and scores more wounded men in suicide vast and armed with grenades took an entire congregation hostage one

of the city's largest christian churches to stand up ended when iraqi troops stormed the building and the firefight that ensued left the gunmen something curity forces and many of the hostages dead jim brown a member of the stop the war coalition told r.t. the american withdrawal is still justified despite the scenes i think the clear intention of the united states to leave iraq seems to me a indispensable precondition for iraq to. rebuild itself united states forces are a powerful factor in iraq to politics and they are a kind of. central determining fact if you go back to two thousand and three the first head of the occupation administration in iraq he was only in there for a month general garner and he said look back to the philippines at the beginning of the twentieth century said our forces were in the philippines for one hundred years . what he called

a culling station he said our forces will be in iraq. will be our coaling station in the middle east for years to come it's not that clear that it really wants. a real peace real trying quality which might exclude itself. here are to coming up later in the program for you a woman left in a coma no arms and no hope for justice dog attacks and the burden of responsibility that's coming up in just a few moments. also for you this hour fuel of the future of scientists claim they found a green alternative to your rainy i'm but many doubt its effectiveness. first though moscow does not feel that nato treats it as an enemy russia's foreign minister said during talks with his german counterpart the ministers streamlined their positions ahead of the russian nato council in lisbon and also discuss disarmament plans are to get to the groucho one has been following the talks with

the central told people the talks between the two ministers was global security and russia now is pushing for a new joint european security architecture and defense that's a defense as a part of it to be better protected against calm and global threats of course russia is keeping a close eye on the u.s. plans and nato plans about deploying elements of missile defense system on the european continent officially in september this year nato invited russia to participate in this missile defense system today so gay lover upset certain work is being done we did see nato partners in particular they're preparing a joint assessment of threats and challenges of the twenty first century and he hopes that the document will be ready by the time this russian nato summit takes place in leesburg. but before russia can come up with any answer to that proposal

love it would like to know how nato partners see russia would disobey ssion that project and most importantly to come to a common understanding on where those threats reach inmate now on serene questions on whether russia and nato nowadays treat each other as enemies. both mr lavrov and his german counterpart said this was not the case and today russia and nato are not cold war anime's but rather more than day allies these orders make the image of the enemy shouldn't exist anymore and must be left in history we view russia as a strategic partner of we've got mutual interests and we of course have differences in opinion but we can talk about them and solve problems in terms of nato and it was always the goal of germany to bring russia into the project as neutral defense i have stressed that russia must work on the issue with us we're making good progress towards that poll just recently russia and nato two parts in

a joint special operations in afghanistan as a result of which some several tons of trucks were destroyed what over two hundred million dollars sent for drug producing laborde trace russia mostly helped nato its nato partners by providing them with intelligence data to carry out that open ration but anyway questions were raised whether russia was going to be back in afghanistan with its troops but to that sergei lavrov a son to clear and loud message today russia is not going to take part in the war in afghanistan if the ball is to last a little so if there are speculations that russia will return to afghanistan this is a problem it's totally out of the question russian troops will never return to afghanistan this is our firm traditions that will not be changed at all from global issues like european security and the war in afghanistan of the two partners discussed the stimulus packages for the economies modernizing the point to me is trade between

the two and an a gene at hope ration in an issue which is important and crucial for the economies of both countries. just take a moment to remind you you can check out our website for a lot more stories blogs and videos here's a taste of what's online right now at our dot com but time bomb is ticking for american students who now owe the government more than credit card drivers and no jobs around most had no way to pay. also moscow joined in with the best of them and welcoming a night of spooks and fun more goblins vampires and witches head over to our t.v. dot com. two pit bull terriers have left a woman mangled and disfigured after jumping over their yard fence igniting the debate over russia's lax dog ownership laws the complex issue is difficult to solve with some pointing the finger at dog breeds and others blaming bad owners are too used to reports. this eighty five year old woman was almost killed by two pit bulls

and here on the yard she was screaming for help and when a neighbor heard her cries she called the police when the officers arrived the reaching animals turned on them. one of the officers blew his whistle the dog and drug the victim and attacked the policeman badly injuring his arm the officers had no other option but to should both animals that by that time the woman was unconscious she was immediately taken to a nearby hospital where the investigation was in shock up on arrival we had to perform an emergency operation to amputate her arms the owners of the bulls kept them for breeding but it seems they didn't keep them secure enough since on the fateful day they managed to escape jumping over a fence and tearing through the neighborhood so when you have to believe unfortunately it's not the first time when dangerous animals are causing severe and sometimes deadly injuries and i think that one of the reasons is that there's a gap in legislation when it comes to dog ownership and punishment for those whose

animals are talking large dogs should be considered dangerous just like common good dogs of the owners of the bulls in question have been charged with negligence resulting in but really harm and could face the two and a half thousand dollar fine or a six month jail sentence but courts rarely impose prison sentences for such crimes however the case has once again sparked heated debate on whether breed specific legislation should be introduced in russia currently twelve countries have banned or special conditions for pit bull and american stuff for chair terrier ownership restrictions are not an option say the members of this dog owners club in the city of sochi let's speak to the animal trainer and greet the seventy year old stuff or show terrier you when you're feeling human and there should be no breed specific discrimination considering one dog good and another one you know is just plain wrong always take into consideration certain traits that also. should be considered

by the dog's owner when choosing the dog but it doesn't mean that some dogs should be more dangerous and therefore require some kind of special super training only really learned to cook with the last name movie dog owners like cyclone or insist that in most cases it's not the animals but their owner swore to blame the average breed sick training course with bull terriers less two to three months and could cost up to six hundred dollars something that in the cross your case though seems the board get considering the prize free by the elderly woman remains of the cold war with doctors pointing to her lawyer did as a bald ski far to cross the reach of. it's just gone quarter past the hour let's check in on some international news in brief for you and the tip that led to finding parcel bombs on cargo planes came from a repentant al qaeda member that's according to u.k. officials x. kuantan m obey detainee jobber al five handed himself into saudi authorities two weeks ago parcels were placed with cargo with one parcel seized in dubai and the

supporters believe it will change the world conflicts that we see today based around energy could go away and that these energy sources that i'm talking about which don't emit carbon dioxide or or greenhouse gases and don't produce dangerous ways cool would enable us to have cleaner water cleaner air and less intrusion on our environment from energy production a ton of the silvery metal produces as much energy as two hundred tons of uranium three and a half million tons of coal. the amount of thorin that would take her vide all the power to run your entire life. is about the size of a marble that big a group working on story in the u.k. says it hasn't managed to get the british government on board so far so it's looking to cooperate with countries like russia for several years now a russian physicist has been proposing to build saurian power stations but i wanted

his ideas haven't been taken up a lot of focus on renewables at the moment so maybe that's where they feel that there's more public support. but truly understood the potential of. it and they would realize that it's a good investment research on thore and was largely halted in the middle of the last century after a year rainy unpowered reactor was designed. many believe also fell out of the spotlight because making a bomb out of it is thought to be almost impossible but today not all scientists are thore i'm calm but it's. reactors don't really work for every challenge and it's a whole new technology which has very insurmountable problems in my opinion they would have problems in developing the process in which you split the fuel from the

waste from the reactor they would have difficulties in actually storing the fuel. in two thousand and seven cities from london to sydney held our turning the lights off to save energy proponents say the worry of power became a reality we could turn the lights back on with confidence. through. the rooms a divisive thing some say it's a technology that's been tried tested and found lacking others say that because the light water reactor got there first the room was never given a proper chance but while it's cheap abundant and even a possibility the scientists here at the annual story in conference say give it a go it might even change the world. well later we talked to russia's innovation tech expert about the importance of seeking new forms of

energy. or in the next ten fifteen or twenty years the world economic architecture will change so much that the raw material sector will simply lose the significance it has today a considerable part of the ultimo bill fleet will operate totally differently it will be electrical environmentally clean etc who will then need us and our oil if the world stops consuming oil as an energy resource in such huge amounts and if we fail to diversify and reorganize our economy and introduce innovative development then russia will turn out to be owned competitive in the world market. you can see that interview in just over an hour's time here in r.t. now let's check what russia has to offer in terms of innovation in our business bulletin that's coming up after a short break. hungry for the full story we've got it for. the biggest issues get a human voice face to face with the news makers i'm. not
