there a time for the headlines now carol. in a couple of hours president variable outline russia's plans for progress countries more months they should progress dimitri medvedev previous addresses to parliament are largely updating the country's politics and economics one vital. world leaders say global diplomacy will not be affected by the latest wiki leaks revelations which contain embarrassing comments about boys more than two hundred thousand private american embassy documents something published many criticize in the country's close allies. and key oil to test for barack obama's

political course as a democrat suppress the republicans to get the nuclear cuts deal signed off on the senate is still in action and a strong u.s. instance of rush to find a treaty is a top priority for national security. the u.n. conference on the climate change is underway in mexico ahead of the meeting toward the russian president's adviser on global warming. i did some that evanovich thank you for sitting down with us the first question is about the kyoto protocol what's your take on it. it is an efficient international regulation mechanism which allowed the participating states to get a taste of collector work it was not simple if you look at the protocol now the issue in question is whether to prolong the second period of the protocol i would say that it is an efficient and applicable in its current format president medvedev

us said russia was not going to take part in the second period of the protocol the reason for that is set out in the fourth report of an intergovernmental experts group which states that global warming as accelerating in order to prevent a reversible climate change we have to make sure that global temperature grows by more than two degrees celsius if it grows to a higher level they accumulated changes in the climate and the biota will make life on earth very uncomfortable for civilisations the numbers in the fourth reports state that all developed countries and we know that not every developed country is currently a member of the kyoto protocol have to reduce their emissions by at least forty percent and then keep working on reducing them so that's why the kyoto protocol in its current format put out every developed country included on amendment b. without the u.s. on the list of participants and with china being the number one source of emissions is pointless other developed countries such as india mexico and brazil are not

subject to any obligations in the current format of the protocol. some scientists believe global warming is a natural process that humans can't influence or are you supportive of that theory you are new york the global warming hypothesis that we currently use and its connection to human generated emissions is confirmed by mainly models on calculated these models show that there is a link as the concentration of greenhouse gases grows so the global temperature levels there are theory stating that the warming is connected to geological and cosmic cycles those theories as you understand remain a steering so what do we do what should the people on the politicians believe they can while themselves into submission and think that nothing can be changed or they can try to influence those processes civilization burns fuel and the myth of greenhouse gases as they develop those emissions can be cut the population of the earth is growing and we are at risk of finding ourselves in

a very difficult situation within the next twenty or thirty years we will be lacking resources if we don't work hard on the conservation of those resources and energy efficiency so from that point of view i just prefer a ball to start that process than doing nothing russia is suggesting we sign a new agreement that would include all the major polluting countries regardless of whether or not they're classified as developed or developing a lot of a condom use today depend on the growth of fuel consumption and therefore the growth of emissions the difficult part is finding a line of development that would let the condom use and while the grow without harming the climate or consuming more and more resources there are ways to do that it was done in the us in the one nine hundred seventy s. of course it will require the mobilization of our resources political will and the right public attitude and so on but it is a possibility that the president's decree to raise the energy efficiency of our economy was not issued for nothing we have massive reserves and that sense we could

decrease the energy cost of our g.d.p. by twenty percent you. simple measures without even switching to high technology think about it if we implement the measures and or size down the government program we will achieve the goals that are set out and that is without impeding the development of our economy if we followed the primitive path of development would be impossible to grow without increasing our emissions russian experts who criticized the kyoto protocol have said that it would upstart russia's development was wrong and utterly popular statement because the only way the development of a country can be obscured by such an agreement is of the crime scene question is unable to fulfilled obligations it took upon itself. but what the president probably meant is that russia should raise energy fission see because russia itself would benefit from it not because the world community wants it to. be but that is entirely correct that is the point i was trying to make when i said cutting

greenhouse emissions leads to saving natural resources it is important from the point of view of sustainable environmentally friendly development that would leave a potential for the development of future generations do you want our children our grandchildren and great grandchildren to have something besides piles of garbage and exhausted worlds don't we have to work on a. master with that c do you think that scandal such as climate gate did not have much influence on the expat community. well you know i was not interested in the new discussions whatsoever of any such issues why because it's not british scientists who determine that people are absolutely ignorant about how observations are made how things are assessed and how they are summarized what it is all like i mean whether there is global warming or there is no such thing that is why the role of some scientists is being exaggerated for advertising purposes first

a part of the world meteorological organization is global. atmosphere watch co-ordinating observations of all greenhouse gases the center gathering the information about all greenhouse gases emissions is located in japan there's enough work of climate centers around the world including russia those centers are summing up observation data over their territory there are strict rules and requirements in place concerning the standards watching climate not just weather and regular basis but things to be summed up as a rule they have one observation history because they say there are strict requirements of the world meteorological organization and therefore observation mistakes of course there may be some but there are a few if somebody takes a look at that data fifty years from now the me state that something could have been done differently but from the point of view of today capacity the scientific facts we have to fully comply with what we should have i have great concerns that

in this particular case those scoundrels are not about how those data are being gathered but on how they're being presented to the enter governmental groups of experts assessing them that's where different interpretations may occur for instance i've been saying that according to some scientists some country should cut concentration of greenhouse gases by twenty five to forty percent by twenty twenty that's what european scientists did introduce my attitude towards that is that of distrust because in this case scientists were tackling the issue from the political point of view interpret ing scientific research data and drawing up a report on it can be politicized and most likely this kind of politicizing was the case here. well global warming has a great impact on the arctic region where russia plays a major role what is currently going on that. well briefly speaking global warming reduces the ice cover smaller ice is not just mere

reduction it also means there margins of icebergs this wasn't the case before so if talking of practical steps regarding self exploration for oil and gas industrial development it's definitely being done on the other hand ice is a natural component of the climate system meaning balance smaller i seriously need to be various effects it is believed that global warming will lead to a colder climate in europe which is linked to the series that water will impact thermal water circulation and the gulf stream flowing close to europe and reach barents sea which is never covered with ice and will become colder and the regional climate will change it is a possibility but scientists have differences as to whether it's likely to happen in other words theoretically it looks likely but we don't know exactly how much i should melt down on all on the will take different assessments according to the most alarming once and may occur in twenty ten and europe will be frozen but this

has not happened so far. what is russia doing to prevent those negative effects. definitely first the arctic is one of the least explored regions of the world severe climate conditions and absence of people there are the main factors hindering the exploration which can lead to understanding of different processes there it was russia who initiated the third international polar year in two thousand and seven two thousand and eight according to the world scientific community its scientific program has become one of the major scientific results of the beginning of the twenty first century to ensure continuity russia has come up with the idea of holding the international polar decade from the point of view of climate research and observations we need the exploration trips we have drifting stations where you understand there's just one spot drifting in. olsson changing its position every year yes for satellite observations we do not have satellites to

give a complete picture polar orbit all satellites are needed which can provide time specific shots therefore setting up such observation equipment is a major enervation project we announced and started up such a project consisting in creating the arctic project but the project has not gained momentum yet while our colleagues in the us canada and the you are actively working in the syria because the one who manages to receive information and regular basis will first strengthen their knowledge and second their positions the arctic region needs serious exploration the arctic is called the weather kitchen and climate depends on the arctic and many respects and the other thing i like to point out is that we have a stated policy on the arctic we hold a number of scientific conferences and a number of scientific mechanisms in place which help us understand what's going on as well as to sum up research data an opportunity to carry out business in the arctic while minimizing human impact on the nature i think thank you very much for

union and i wouldn't like to be in jersey renia shoes today neither what i am special on well we just saw this team smashed by barcelona we've got all the goals kerry in just a moment can't miss this would be great. good to have your company this is sports today i'm you know me these are some of the stories we're covering this hour d.-day looms with the host nations for the twenty eighteen and twenty twenty two world cup to be announced on thursday r.t. caught up with one of russia's most decorated players american chelsea. spanish barcelona roger archrivals real madrid five nil in the first classic goal

of the. funder struck it's anything but the big easy of new orleans lose for the fourth time in five games in the n.b.a. to oklahoma this time around. this week will decide who has won the right to host the twenty eight day non the twenty twenty two world cup finals russia is in the running to host the event in eight years time and our correspondent richard from port fleet caught up with former manchester united great under who's confident his country will get the not. very 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 of big chances because it's. really in a world cup. like an england ninety six two six going on to win. the world cup championship. last.

if you remember people come to moscow and the result who can produce thirty who can in for sure they would have seen. i think so a good chance for that i should win 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 the countries to win. two thousand and ten who's more a.t.o.s. if you if you serious if russian. concentration mode world cup and things of good turns for good studios. people really really hard to win please world cup and russia is also more of a legacy thing because as i said i mean. these western european nations have everything russia still developing and i think this is a big catch my feet but i think you know help russia not just on the football pitch

but socially as well yes of course yes. important to consume pleasure and serious work. 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 but 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 put bail or a second division club third division club stadiums all the time is a pseudonym for this woman deleterious to the mainland to read beautiful hello football before the for them to move forward in the school the kids. and the russian people a little bit don't understand. what's happening what's happening from all. this problem for. any school law school kids for the kids not to miss called

before in too many too many teams and so can the regions. there is the reason premier league believe in the more contemplation for football more interest for football to start of a stark little blip in proven not to not two hundred percent if we. world cup and good chances who. do you see russia is one of the favorites to win this world cup bid or do you think they are outsiders all sixty forty percent here what i said about when hospital after we knew things very well we're keeping our fingers crossed cumber second of december russia wins but think you have little hope so our hopes will. now russia may be the bookmakers favorites for the twenty eighth but any limits aren't too far behind a recent fee for corruption probe by a british newspaper is believed to dented the country's bid somewhat but the

english delegation are staying optimistic ahead of the zurich and once meant we know what all cost is to victory. that we are pursuing we understand all the options to that are out there in the way for us my workouts and we are planning accordingly so at this point we're optimistic but we know we've got a lot of woods to do this week and i think there are people who still have to sign ok that brings us to feel the action we're after all this stuff on the pre-game analysis the only figures that moderate after the first classico of the season where five until much to the light of the barcelona faithful the realm of dread the most richly assembled squad all footballers on the planet quite simply shell shocked barcelona getting into their groove early. over i could see ten minutes enough to partially driven through ball andres iniesta one became two at the nou camp just eight minutes later rio the fence all over the place line pedro with the easiest to finish is after good work from david via on the outside. the second half

would bring little rest but for the beleaguered visitors via getting in on the act and self netting supposedly after another typical barcelona build up on pos from l'oreal terrorizer in chief lionel messi the same per the same result moments barcelona on cruise control at this point and then there was complete write up the death gesture and swore as making the score and five nil the win. to top spot in the perm are early. we are proud to because the world have seen us the way we are going to we like to play that is the most important thing the result is the consequence of the game. but. so i would like to does game. to be. point but.

it is the worst defeat of my career i have never lost five nil before that's a fact but it's a defeat that's easy to digest because it's a defeat where there was no possibility of winning it's not one of those defeats where it was difficult to accept. i've seen joe said look better than not the oklahoma city thunder save the best for last the soft new orleans on the n.b.a. hardwood on monday russell westbrook the spark in the final quarter of the california native playing the role of go to guy in the open house one of the point guards eleven assists finding james harden for a strong finish twenty two year old westbrook wherever missing ten others first fifteen shots was a big factor in new orleans having secured a seventy six seventy two lead in the fourth but they turned the ball over here a long time to round two. of his game high twenty six points westbrook again setting up that effort twenty ten world champion then found

a shooting touch doesn't points on the late fourteen zero run by the thunder meaning new orleans leads for the fourth time in five games as the thunder take it ninety five eighty nine. the star studded miami heat this season surprise disappointment dwayne wade le bron james chris caution coach the winners on the night over the wizards saw beachside now with ten wins and losses for the year to date the dallas mavericks are cruising right along their six consecutive victory coming over their fellow texans and houston milwaukee meanwhile were missing their two big men under. twenty one point loss to the charts. with winter well and truly upon us in europe by awful enough plates are busy warming up for the start of their season. sweden will host the first stage of the sports world cup on wed and stay on the head of the russian biathlon union spoke to us about the rapidly approaching event. the first stage of the world
