in israel. to have you with us this is. the russian capital we're here twenty four hours a day top stories now the south america fears for its image after sensitive details are published online over its relations with its closest partners experts say it shows a degradation of washington's foreign policy. to senior iranian nuclear scientists to targeted and bomb attacks iran blames israel and the u.s. saying it's an attempt to hamper the country's nuclear program. keeping tensions high south korea pyongyang with a regional joint naval exercise with the u.s. only a week after a deadly artillery exchange in the. back another update about fifteen minutes from now in the meantime nato has announced its plans to pull most of the one hundred

fifty thousand coalition troops out of afghanistan within four years but somebody of afghan forces may not be ready to defend the country by then discuss that with afghan foreign minister dr paul and his interview next we here on r.t. . thank you. nic. afghan foreign minister so let us all thank you very much for being with us today my pleasure this is foreign minister when soviet forces withdrew from afghanistan you have been publishing a resistance journal for eighteen years what did you and your compatriots expect for your country's future back then as usual afghanistan wanted to be free independent and sovereign country to be friendly with its neighbors region and have

his own destinies that are on her and that something that you wanted and that's something that afghans always will how would you describe the state of your nation as of today afghan people have been at war for the last five to two years since nine eleven two cards and one when international community. came to afghanistan to liberate afghanistan from different of the taliban. afghanistan is facing tremendous challenges to rebuild itself. because for thirty years the foreign country which solidly was a poor country has been completely destroyed so the challenge is hard rebuilding the country giving to normal life toward people are our children go to school to have a health care target you cation. that is what you're trying to do now with our friends british defense chiefs general search david richards set that nato should prepare for another thirty forty years to stay in afghanistan which makes

and mockery of their plans transition in two thousand and fourteen why do you think nato changed its strategy and do you think its strategy defeating the tribal opposition was right in the first place number one it's not a tribal position it is a fight against terrorism and extremism and a tribal chief in the tribal people of the first victim of the terrorism which are being killed or to. date of two thousand and fourteen it's afghan proposal president karzai is a first degree speech in the second term said that afghanistan should take this the sponsibility of its own security starting by two thousand and eleven and if an issue by two thousand and fourteen that's has been proposed and i thought that in london and kabul conference by international community and that's been contra ties and had the summit in lisbon that's a real things that afghanistan should be in the hands of afghans and the security afghanistan is the responsibility of the afghans so starting by two thousand and

eleven and finishing by two thousand and fourteen the afghan national security forces will be in charge of security of afghanistan and the remaining force of international community need to another's will be supporting force not a fighting force how is the russian effort to help their russian effort to what they help the war effort perceived in kabul i think russia is a great country great power in the world is a great partner of afghanistan in the region and we seek the support and cooperation of russia for peace and security in afghanistan because the security in afghanistan the stability of afghanistan is not only for afghanistan it took effect disability and security of the region including russia so wonderful our product involved foreign policy in the fight against terrorism and extremism and stability of afghanistan is a region of cooperation because the fight against terrorism and extremism is not

only individual afghanistan it is a regional issue so if you cannot find a solution there vision a solution for it we'll be in deep trouble because that will continue and take longer time is nato presence threatening your internal security in relation to your immediate neighbors who we have been working through day one to assure assure our neighbors that the presence of need to a life force in afghanistan is for security and stability in afghanistan for the fight against terrorism and extremism is not directed against any other country. and so far you have kept it reassuring gordon it would be neat to have your regional cooperation as i mentioned to to defeat terrorism extremism the couple has very good relations with washington and with tehran just like russia is your government in a position to mediate between obama and ahmadinejad's perspective administrations and maybe are you afraid of the repeat of the iraqi scenario when a war is waged just to satisfy a american demands iran is

a great country of kindness done with whom we have a long historical dilution and we are seeking and having good relation reviewed on united states afghanistan which are fighting terrorism and helping afghanistan a lot we see it but the relation between you danny the united states to benefit our afghanistan and the benefit of the region by the same time we don't want to pay the price of the problem because you don't do it sir you told the un general assembly and i quote you to complement our efforts towards eliminating poppy production who wish to see greater action to counter smuggling of precursors into our country and to reduce demand and consumption of drugs in other countries as of today over two and a half million russians are addicted to afghan heroin this is where mr why has your administration and your allies failed to tackle the poppy production first of all the poppy production in afghanistan have to result of thirty years of war did

lawlessness and despair of the afghan people who do new tomorrow he's going to be a life or not you know security for your future. sickened when he came to back to afghanistan in two thousand and eleven to two thousand and one two thousand and two don't have any institution to fight it no police no judicial system no army and in that will take time for the can put. in place but the fight that is not quite dick is also one of the priority of afghanistan because afghanistan will pay first for that suffer first before you die that will suffer from it and you're not taking the benefit off that because demand produced by traffickers will go outside afghanistan and not stay in afghanistan so definitely it is it is a major fight. to get. this right cannot be done by afghanistan alone we need support of international community we need the support of the digits by force from

the floor by as mentioned a precursor which are not produced in afghanistan is pretty outside afghanistan came inside afghanistan we will do all of our jobs to reduce and eliminate poppy cultivation afghanistan but also a war in the region should do did it for us to reduce the demand because because because that is demand you could auction a popular so it's a common foot money for reducing the cultivation giving too far out of afghanistan the alternative which they would accept to to grow something poppy to defilers the cost of a puppy have any viable alternatives in the region of afghanistan which are under control of the afghan government which have been able we have been able to give a tentative yes that has not has been very positive p.f.c. just into the important province of afghanistan which has been traditionally poppy good hard in the south east and by the north when some project has been delivered

a project connected. with. the production of culture of what we were going to do significant. why are there area which. did as in security you know you're not in full control of course the production has been increased so more and more the security will come and do syria and more and more the african government will become in control listen this is going to be popular according to experience that we have and other part of afghanistan mr foreign minister the outside world gets an impression that you and your government colleagues are only save within a couple compounds and unable to travel across your own country does this send a signal to taliban that there may be a winning. i don't know what's the impression of the outside world i'm inside afghanistan i traveled practically all programs this myself and we are appointing all the governors saucer district chief or so of small pockets of course of afghanistan are still not under the control of the afghan government but the

majority of afghanistan is rude and controlled by the central government there for constant i think that's a perception which we do not share with them sir his forces have been accused of building black prisons in your countries where your citizens have been illegally detained and tortured or curb the widely documented it military excesses against your countrymen and your shoe of president has been an issue an issue that has created tension between united states and afghanistan there are two three issues that has created tension because the issue of detainees the issue of civilian casualties. for nitrates in the house does he shoots has been discussed be very frank and friendly manner i think we are in the right part to solve soon in the beginning of two thousand and twelve afghanistan will be charged off between it's all about afghanistan at the beginning of this of this.

taking charge of pretty nice and we are working with our lives to reduce the minimum of any need. disagree uncarved wrote you but also issues often argued that should be done by afghan national security forces more and more afghan forces would be in charge of to come but less than this would be described the problems elections have also been a lot in the news lately two elections have taken place since to nato led invasion both sat fraudulent with the rigging with results published only two months after the poll what do you say to those who claim when you and your allies are planning an unsustainable political system afghanistan is a democratic system afghanistan after thirty years of war and lawlessness no government practically would different kind of government has now system to democratic process is taking root as you know you cannot make democracy in one day a new country. especially in

a country that had been at war for fifty years so i think that there are probably going to be a problem and i think the problem on addiction is not only in this specific one afghanistan a lot of countries even more developed countries have hype that's had problems that action but the process is going on and there are people. living in democracy that's the reason people are complaining millions of people anybody difficult condition of security when two votes not the woman for the first time in afghanistan. and election men about the place it's good news with afghanistan but afghanistan cannot be so it's a long war and nine years mr foreign minister thank you very much for this interview and i wish you and your people every success in achieving peace and democracy in your country.

stories for the house contrie is so full of the eighteen and twenty two world cups to be decided. to form a man united. russia will win the right to house any time. a russian premier league season concludes we'll bring you the highlights from the. final match day. sunday nights with federer. the. the side of the season ending a.t.p. tour final. so on thursday december the second free fall will decide who has won the right to host the twenty eighteen that's why these twenty two world cups russia is in the running to host the event in a.d.r. style and our correspondent richard vanpool felipe caught up with andre can chelsea who is confident his country has everything to host the competition. pretty much

for a time well of course. the bid for the two thousand and eighteen world cup is drawing ever closer how do you rate russia's chances just big chances horatia because it's . played in the world cup. like an england one hundred sixty six going on to win theorist world cup championship. was good for the. us. if you remember people come to moscow and we should who can for the stadium who can in for sure they would have seen. well i think it was good chance for that are showing but russia's going up against countries like spain portugal england the netherlands and belgium they've got great stadiums got great infrastructure so in theory i mean these would be all countries to win or as a says. who goes in ten who's more a.t.o.s.

if you if you serious if russian. movement concentration along with world cup and things of good turn for good studios or stories. people are really really happy when police world cup and russia is also more of a legacy thing because as i just said i mean. these western european nations have everything russia still developing and i think this is a big catch my feet but in fact the year help russia not just on the football pitch but socially as well yes of course yes. important to consultation and serious work for this way but one of things probably will which will help russia they do win the bid to host the two thousand and eighteen world cup will be the massive. interest in the game something that isn't the case at the moment you having half empty stadiums which the you must be quite a surprise coming from england and from europe where if you even go to a small town say someone put bail or

a second division club third division club stadiums all the time as a signal for this and deleterious to the mainland to. be done hello football before looking for the star to move for the new school new kids. and the russian people a little bit don't understand. what's happening what's happening from all. this problem for the. and it's called law school so when kids for the kids know to me it's called before in yourself too many too many and so can the reason fear is the reason premier league believe in it more concentration for football more interest for football to start up a stark little bit improvement not two not two hundred percent if we. work up and would work or hundred points around do you see russia as one of the

favorites to win this world cup bid or do you think there are insiders who sixty forty percent. of us and we were going on three things very much hope leaving our fingers crossed cumber second december russia wins but it is then going to be more hopeful hopes will. go so much and of course england are still one of russia's main competitors even though their recent corruption allegations might significantly hurt their chances nevertheless the english delegation is already in syria trying their best to stay optimistic we know what our path is to victory it's a path that we are pursuing we understand all the options that are that are out there in the way things may work out and we plan accordingly so at this point we're optimistic but we know we've got a lot of work to do this week and i think there are people who still have to decide . and a former england captain david baca will be there to bag the bit as well it has been forty four years since the last world cup on english soil and backs things

they're ready for another one. you know we should all along about english football about the success that we've had over many many years. and just not that we you know we're not overconfident about you know no in that we should get it because at the end of the day there are there are other countries that. you know could host great world cups but we have to make sure that everybody knows that you know we're ready for. moving on to tennis now where another prolific season has officially erupt up with a familiar face lifting the year ending a.t.p. tour finals trophy and roger federer becoming only the third player in history to win the tournament five times as he beat on travel rafael nadal in the final the twenty nine year old going on to fit it in the season and are now dull watching the swiss master produced a masterpiece opening sadly today by sixty two three spenny of them david is best in the second level matters were the same scoreline becoming the only player to win
