the biggest issues get a human voice face to face with the news makers. forecasting twenty four hours a day from moscow this is the r.t.e. news channel it's kevin owen here tonight with a headline update for you working with nato to prevent a new arms race and forging closer ties with fallen partners there the top priorities outlined in dimitri would be the presidential address to the federal assembly. it's barack obama's big test as he tries to break republican opposition and use his final chance this year to push past congress an arms reduction treaty with russia. british students take to the streets in their thousands to protest against new deficit cutting measures that may make it tougher for them to get an education. and that is the law school russia is among those preparing their final big presentations to host the twenty eighteen football world cup the winner is said

to be announced in two days' time. a u.n. conference now underway in mexico climate change is the main question on the table the copenhagen agreement signed in january sets a goal of limiting global warming but many countries are unhappy with that document we talked about russia's position with me to advance its advisor on ecology issues and also the president of the world meteorological organization that chad coming right up. i think. i did somebody money which thank you for sitting down with us the first question is about protocol what's your take on it. your lives it is inefficient 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 inefficient and applicable in its current form our president new video of us said russia was not going to take part in the second period of the political realm or the reason for that set out in the fourth report of an intergovernmental experts group which states that global warming is 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 the gross 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 report 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 form without every developed country included on amendment b. or do you want us on the list of participants and with china being the number one

source of emissions it's pointless other developed countries such as india mexico and brazil that are not subject to any obligations in the current format of the protocol to. some scientists believe global warming is a natural process that he was conned influences 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 would work 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 gel logical 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 will mold themselves into submission and think that nothing can be changed or they can try to influence those processes your civilization burns fuel and the myth 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 who will be lacking resources 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 we godless so whether or not they are classified as developed or developing a lot of a con and use today the plan on the growth of fuel consumption and therefore the growth of emissions will be difficult artist 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 an issue for nothing we have massive reserves and that sounds you 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 decided on the government program we will achieve the goals that are set out and that is without impeding the development of our economy if we follow the primitive path of development would be impossible to grow without increasing our missions russian experts who criticize 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 fulfill the 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. people that is

entirely correct it 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 wells don't we have to work on a. master with that so do you thing 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 why there is global warming or there is no such thing there 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 is a network of climate centers around the world including russia those centers are summing up observation data over their territory so there are certain 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 of law an observation history as i say there are strict requirements of the world meteorological organization and therefore observation mistakes of course there may be some but there are 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 intergovernmental groups of experts assessing them what your best or different interpretations may occur for instance i've been saying that according to some scientists some countries 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 you 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 would you. well global warming has a great impact on the arctic region where russia plays a major role what is currently going on that. 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 they're better clear looks likely but we don't know exactly how much i should meltdown i'm no longer will take their 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 the 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 dick. from the point of view of climate research and observations we need the exploration trips we have of drifting stations where you understand there's just one spot drifting in the ocean 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 and us canada and the euro are actively working in the syria because the one who manages to receive information on regular basis both first strengthen their knowledge and second their positions the arctic region it's 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 some up research data an opportunity to carry out business in the

arctic while minimizing human impact on the nature. thank you very much for this interview. in a. wealthy british style. market. to. find out what's really happening to the global economy with mike's culture the no holds barred financial headlines. keyser report.

and pregame analysis the only figures that mattered after the first el classico of the season with five and zero watch to the delight of the barcelona faithful real madrid the most richly assembled football team on the planet quite simply shellshock barcelona getting into their groove early on. a serious time of the same outrage powerfully driven through ball from. one became to the no camp just eight minutes later the reality found so over the place allowing bajor all these is the finishes off to good work from david on the outside the second half will bring little response for the visitors bill you're getting in on the act himself netting superbly after another typical barcelona build up and a pass from. the same pair of the same result just moments later barcelona on cruise control at that point their assessment was complaints right as the death of one friend suarez made it five without reply off the words. the

worst loss of his coaching career. the worst defeat of my career i've never lost by a little 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. stay with what to say to our aiming to reach the no cow stages of the europa league when they had. a bull's allsburg on wednesday victory would sound city through if you've been just pale to beat. in the eyes of the group a game city are unbeaten in nine home european matches wells broke have not won their last six in a way from roberto mancini on the pressure after a slump in form in the league so as the match is this stopped of a make or break december for his team. i said to be. it would be very important for us because we play

a six game and. if we're going to walk we can go on the top but generally. we'll be most most important and in february we if we can be. we can we can see what we must do. now also on wednesday maine says scal face a must win challenge in the basketball your league the other man are currently bottom of group dan the debate span as annika us to remain in the hunt for a place in the last sixteen bloodiness has more. says maybe one of the european basketball houses but the season they're on the verge of missing the euro leaked up sixteen for the first time in more than a decade the one just wants and there are six games of the tournaments they now need to be in their remaining matches and hope that they are the results will go

their way as indeed four teams out of six were qualified for the next stage many say scott fans are blaming their former head coach to cover your speech for the current struggle we're sure each was dismissed by the army man last week after he failed to build a new plane system in the team but some think he's just arrived at their own time every show i would like to see the serbs working out the circumstances here is very unlikely with the injuries of key players like victor frappe and sasha come and unfortunately for him says carr couldn't wait any longer was his cup and i'll say well for now that six time you're really champions will try to make do with me the shut in the forty two year old may be too inexperienced for the big club but it looks like at the moment say scott had no choice because of what we just got the better we're just going to don't have money to say any way to be coached from here and by the way there's no because the much of. the russian champions management

will hope sure cooling to throw things golf ball on and off the court sound says top players were unhappy with newcomers john and for the vocation they seem to be concentrating only on his game i don't think they understand me thank you when i say machine abroad i take it as i'm selfish but first this is why i always play if you are playing the formula for playing basketball or. by paper some sort of nothing but just like a lot of people misunderstand of course has a mountain to climb but a good thing for the start is that the players believe in him i think we're optimistic i think we have had a positive field here and i have done a lot of winning here with us groups are going to stand to get on the court we always believe that we can go out there and win and again i think we still feel the same right. on wednesday to say scott will step up onto the court hoping to remain in contention for the ninth consecutive four i know for a bigger leak they may lose respect to get a battle but one thing's for sure because i speak for him as the season can carly

get a new wars but the rest of our fire team. now is game sat and match for the tennis pros as the season officially ended last week the president of the russians and his federations have talked to the media here in moscow to solve the before one solved russian players and while most of them all taking all the cations by the same captain and head coach is fully focused on next to that bishop stated that his generally satisfied with some individual results of the last a national team should have won the federation cup place here the injuries spoiled the season for several top pros great things are expect of if everyone stays injury free especially in the women's game. despite injury heroes volume of his performance was beyond praise this year and she fully deserved second place in the rankings as for men because usually is worthy of praise as he finished the year in the top ten we can't be fully satisfied as our tennis players didn't win any grand

slam titles however in women's tennis there are prerequisites for us this year four of our top players suffered injuries so next season we can expect good results we have been the best nation in youth tennis for the past five years and i'm sure our supremacy will continue. and with went to well and truly a policy. a woman up for the start of the world cup season they had of they were some biathlon he spoke to us about the rapidly approaching kick off where this is an open idea to take place in sweden on wednesday. the first stage of the world cup has always been a good early test for by phone heavyweight nations china japan and the u.s. who have been training there in sweden for more than two weeks could be the surprise packages however they're not our main rivals for us it will be a good warm up we can embrace how we prepared for the season and see the war queue for new coaching stuff we shouldn't expect first prize yet we have to understand

how our teams turned out this season and how the athletes recover after the first race that's it for now coming up shortly is the wild weather stay with us. you the latest in science and technology from. the future covered.
