historic. characterize. a twenty five year old. that. story. in the. studios here in central moscow this is twenty four hours a day so

a breakthrough in russian polish relations that many including the. president visit . showed concern about the future of european security is one thing that's bringing them closer together. in the meeting. many aspects in the relations between russia and poland were a dark chapter for the thais but according to a polish president. that is a thing of the past. mistake that's we can leave the tragic pages of our shared history behind it's the beginning of a new chapter in the book of russian relations. of course that tragic chapter marred relations between moscow and warsaw for decades when in one thousand early one nine hundred forty s. twenty thousand polish officers were executed by the soviet secret police and for

decades the soviet union denied any responsibility in the matter blaming instead nazi forces for the executions only decades later did russia knowledge the responsibility for those executions and offered its apologies to the polish nation finally that page was just beginning to be turned over and left in the past when a new tragedy occurred and then polish president his wife and a huge polish delegation were all on their way to pay their respects to the executed polish officers when their plane crashed just outside the russian city of so of course for the polish nation that thing is not a historical tragedy it is also a very recent one and it's still of course a very painful part of this recent history but the joint investigation that has been going on that is still ongoing in fact has brought the two sides closer. to. the russians after this year's tragic plane crash near smolensk more

cooperation on the work that followed the catastrophe we will continue our work finishing with the results will be available to anyone who is interested in russians. and she called gratian is of course a huge part of relations between the two states and that is said only to increase it is. something that unites the two states. according to russia wants to get europe hooked on its energy then used to its political advantage we consider this to be nonsense we are developing good usually beneficial relations in the energy field with all european countries including states that are connected with russia via pipelines but with the recent restart in ties between moscow and washington and a certain improvement in relations between russia and nato it does seem that this is yet again a thing of the past and russia and poland are very comfortable discussing a joint anti-missile defense plan that was mentioned by the russian president just

a few weeks ago in. portugal during a nato summit the russian nato. russian president has some things scheduled for his time tomorrow but as it seems and here poland the talks today do signify a new level of relations between moscow and war so that both sides seem very keen on keeping. cation has historically been a curse for us but it could become a blessing if we look to russia as a crucial partner this of course a very new turn in directions of russia poland relations but a very welcome one as signified by both the russian president and his polish counterpart. kocinski from the center for european policy studies as russia and poland share an extremely broad range of areas for cooperation. it is going to be about economy yes it is going to be about energy and yes it's going to be about

security yes it's going to be about history yes it's going to be broad politics all those elements are there's really a big big basket of issues to be covered between between russia and poland it's not only those two long years that those relations didn't take off but. those are very close partners and there's a lot of businesses out there it takes a generation at least a change to change a long grew to historical differences. which was what it's a couple months and since modern scrubbers tragedy which was the big catalyst it's been a year and a few months since the apologies investor by prime minister putin so there is this is only first months of this process that has started and hopefully will lead to reconciliation between the poles and the russians live from moscow you will timor

ahead for you this including newly released c.c.t.v. footage of a passenger plane crash landing in moscow is being scrutinized for the cause of the which killed two and injured. and our teammates a star twins of russia's world cup bid presentation to help the country in the right span l. sizing up their chances of getting on the pitch twenty eight stories still to come . so it could be the next on a chapman a young russian woman working as a parliamentary aide to a british m.p. has been arrested on suspicion of espionage and is facing deportation. yet his boss betrayed by the british press as a womanizer insists his glamorous young helper is innocent and it has more. this has moved very quickly away from the political arena and back into the sort of fluffy details that the media loves to report so much focusing on these details

like a bond movie or a john le carre novel talking about how. to leave it when round in shorts and in high heels other media are calling her a russian ball detonated in the british parliament they're also talking about mike hang called he's an m.p. in the south of england asking questions about the nuclear arsenals and those sorts of questions are often submitted to the government by assistants like cats and so there's some worry about whether she has knowledge of britain's nuclear secrets the media have been talking to other people who worked with her in parliament who say that her nickname was maad candle it seems that she liked to sit in her office and light scented candles while she was preparing parliamentary reports and briefings of course kasey is that to leave yet there is a perfect hero for this story if you like she's a leggy beautiful russian and she's really the anna chapman of this saga and it's very convenient for the british media to have this sort of post to go for any spy

scandal that comes out like this let me just show you a couple of the front pages here in england today this is the daily express with a picture of catcher at the bottom the. honeytrap. he. has been given whether he had before or not has been now given a reputation for being somewhat of a womanizer the guardian goes for a very low calorie title with a picture of catcher on the front the headline the m.p. his russian aids and questions. the u.k.'s nuclear missile to terror and now as far as what's going to happen to her now we know that she's in detention and we understand that her deportation has already been agreed to by the home office. and the home secretary mike. employer is very adamant that he says that she's going to appeal against the decision he points out that she was already picked up for questioning back in oldest at which point she could have left the country with no

further consequences but she chose not to because he says she felt that she did nothing wrong so he's come out vigorously in defense of. however this would be the first case of a russian spy working in parliament to be expelled from this country since the end of the cold war you were in that reporting there from london them down some of the guardian newspaper in the u.k. says the story big in britain because the media there is still loves cold war inspiring mysteries. it's the kind of story there we love in britain it sort of raises it brings back memories of the cold war it brings back memories of a sort of a simpler time if you like one of the way it was the west against the east you know brings back time memories of intrigue. and all sorts of excitement the british media is is very lively it's very parties and it's going to take a view on on cases like this it's going to report very heavily around them rousseau

phobia that fear of russia has not gone away and i think if you or anyone over maybe the age of thirty five in the u.k. you know you were brought up with that sort of cold war experience russia is not a country even now that you understand it's not a country you feel comfortable it's not a country for the evanston to of relationship with you don't watch russian movies in the way you watch hollywood movies the relationship russia show it's very different it just doesn't take much to bring back that kind of feel of russia old sense of conflict the matts what this story placed well i think this young woman is a say i've advised her to a relatively minor member of parliament it's a great story but did she get any access to any high grade information that would really cause a rift between britain and russia no she didn't. there will clearly be i think a little more suspicion between britain and russia but not a profound split you know frankly there is suspicion anyway. what have your say on this and other stories we're covering do go ahead and log on to our website it's

really would be a possibility of peace this is a u.s. meeting with its two clients in the region which it has occupied for sixty five here the united states is no longer in the position it was sixty years ago when it was the great power in the region it is today an empire in serious decline and decay and attempting to do too military many aircraft carriers what it no longer has a productive capacity to do it really is an attempt to get out of the economic crisis globally with more military expenditures and more military confrontations and it's a great danger for the people of the whole globe a recent poll shows many americans have no idea what's happening with the country's wars in iraq and afghanistan with the economic crisis showing no end the thousands of deaths and trillions of dollars spent on the military don't seem to be catching

the public's attention and it's all to lower list to reports the us media seems to be largely responsible. an average day on the streets of the big apple an urban metropolis of lights cameras and action these stars and stripes preside over it all. they're the same one seen here that come marching somberly home from us wars overseas though they seem a world away so too do the wars in afghanistan and iraq for the american people who know only this flag that they were going to the right. toward iraq it's the. confusion of bounds over who the us is fighting and where with no sense of the losses how many u.s. troops u.s. soldiers would you say have been killed in the war in afghanistan oh far too many obviously and it's and it's terrible and i i hope it can be resolved i hope that how many would you say. gosh more than forty four hundred u.s.

troops have been killed in iraq more than thirteen hundred in afghanistan. and along with lives those missions together have cost the american taxpayer a lot of cash i would say probably about twenty billion. the wars together have cost more than one trillion dollars and counting money spent since the u.s. invaded iraq back in two thousand and three and afghanistan when. one question because unlike the afghanistan i was two years the u.s. has been there since two thousand and one nine years the responses we've gotten here in the heart of new york city's times square are that surprising when you look at a recent poll it found public concern with the wars is very low just seven percent of americans consider the wars in iraq and afghanistan to be the biggest problems facing the united states now why this is the case is up for debate but some point

to the role of the u.s. mainstream media which focuses more attention on sins. a tional news even entertainment headlines then on coverage of the war is when it's hard to dramatize our successes and you know our heroic accomplishments you know people tend to look the other way it's something that's sort of more engrossing if you will perhaps a less important the news and say in rehab has been cut short focuses more on something like this from a court ordered rehab coverage of the rehab stints of a young hollywood actress morning network shows they definitely like to focus on the fluff and in turn people searching to come up with answers to questions about the wars their country is fighting have no trouble answering this lindsey lowe initiate still in rehab. no i think she's out there she's going to be married we have these are headlines they can recite even if they wish they couldn't who cares no we're more worried about the kids out there but for now the stork reality

beneath these stars and stripes is lost in the urban chaos the frivolous media mayhem the need these ones a world removed and far away from the consequences of u.s. foreign policy on an average day any given day on the streets of the big apple lauren lyster r.t. new york. c.c.t.v. footage has been revealed of a dramatic crash landing of a passenger plane in moscow investigators are examining the images for clues on the reasons behind saturday's accident the biggest on airlines plane suffered engine failure shortly after taking off from the russian capital two died and more than eighty were injured when the two point one five pressure landed skidded off the runway and broke the poso passengers just. like. your forces ranging from human error to frozen fuel and when. one of us have a look at other news stories making headlines around the world at this stage of the

annexed. mr president very glad to see the relations between russia and poland can be best characterized by the fact that this is already the second russian polish visit lately what do you think about the quality of the relations between our countries

as of today and why did you take the decision to press this really improving reset button. when. you know we would have had to take this decision earlier or later as it has been stressed more than once various writings in media as well is at a political level all relations have their own rather complicated history the bones on two peoples this history has both bright pages and pages of pain and distress but now it is essential that we leave behind this longstanding and right historical paradigm of the development of russian wireless relations and try to separate history whichever it day from today's life we need to pave the way for the future while preserving of course all the best that has bound countries all peoples and searching to give an adequate evaluation to the most severe moments of this history . one potential danger mr president i think that the point you've mentioned the

one about our not remaining captives of history either in russia or poland is a very important statement on the part of russia but your statement on the issue of a stolen era coins was well received in poland as well as the last statement on the cult in crime by the state duma that however due to the level of mistrust that has been growing the millions of poles also themselves whether the changes that we are facing now other strategic the permanent ones or whether these are only tactical levels of arsenic is a current. so the president of egypt of the most high thing was mean if we want the changes to come we do it not only for the polish people but also for the russian citizens this is a two way road that it is up to us and in fact it should be a strategic choice and not a tactical decision aimed at achieving some the goals of the you know what i consider to be the problem in polish russian relations and has some aspects of relations of our country with others the whole set of historical problems and

tragedies it's one of them a really terrible tragedy is the catton tragedy and i think that our task in the russian federation is to tell the truth about it and with this stadium or adopted a statement on this issue a very important statement it's absolutely o.-v. a super committed this crime and why when sullivan and his henchmen are responsible for this crime i have relevant documents from the so-called top secret folder these documents can be found on the internet and are available to the public with all the resolution they attempts to call these documents into question and to say when they had been falsified a nonsense. mr president of the west and the east deemed the lisbon summit in which you participated was a crucial turning point in the relations between russia and nato as well as between russia and the west do you consider as a milestone meeting or do you believe that in the long run it might turn out to be

not quite so good for those still in the. it is all in our own hands this summit can be historic and so it actually was in the spirit and i want to especially given the situation we were facing two years ago that i would get it can turn out to be a meeting that did not live up to the expectations and i would like to recall the developments of two thousand and eight as the previous u.s. administration suggested a well known idea that has been deploying missile defense interceptors embraced all seem at holden to and the czech republic which was debated issue up in our country this idea was perceived as an eye. weakening military capabilities of the russian federation we've brought opposition to the attention of nato entities at some point the situation became serious serious that i had taken on pleasant decision to deploy additional missiles and consequently the new administration abandoned its decision which was the right thing to do. the idea of an a.b.m. system has been preserved the muscle that was proposed to us to consider the place of the russian federation occupies the european a.b.m.

system which strain created on the basis of nato has capabilities for primarily their use of united states of america and i told president obama right ok we're ready but we want such a project to be equal so that we can understand the place of the russian federation the threats that are jointly addressed the true nature of these threats the responsibility that we have you know i'm going to say something which i hope will not offend friends and my u.s. counterparts i told president obama frankly that the foundation we were building would be of great importance for the situation that all of us would face on ten years when the full stage missile defense system would have been finally set up by twenty or twenty one and not for me and for him as politicians for them with us this will be even a joint russia nato initiative but that will shield us from somewhere right so in case russia fails to find its place in the system at all right twenty twenty the situation can develop in such a way that the corresponding missile defense umbrella will be considered to be an

element destabilising the nuclear equilibrium and weakening the russians capabilities of ensuring nuclear parity as long as nuclear weapons exist you the second course of events might cause by twenty twenty another cycle of an arms race and we would really love this this is why apple lisbon summit avoids the idea of sex the responsibility of states within missile defense in europe way and i expect my partners the usa as well as other partners or nato to study thoroughly the idea over the russian federation which you know he's going to get us because we're going to get is the. thank you very much indeed mr president and i think it is well for on three some thirty questions and finding the time to meet with us. and thank you . cultures that so much time in which of course and right on it comes up here we keep our eye on what is now called cable gate or red face gate as many as one could
