president medvedev spoke about the problem facing people with disabilities most russian cities are simply not that good to catto for their needs as they program is setting new standards for cities in an attempt to make them more disabled fred but isn't it rather a problem within our minds we're asking a disabled rights advocate there i think if i know. official statistics say ten percent of the russian population suffer from disability many people say they either know a disabled person i have experienced in taking care of one and many people still think of people with disabilities as different from others despite those perceptions disabled people themselves are optimistic about their prospects of enjoying a better conditions and quality of life but currently every day can be a struggle and society isn't well equipped to help them.
9:33 am
however i need to work on the show thank you thank you very much for coming. in the latest states of the nation address president medvedev said i quote there is a lack of basic facilities for the disabled in the towns and cities and when. there's actually no news in what the prince and we all know about it so what or who do you blame for the lack of progress in this respect. well as digital to the difficulty of lemme. think of. someone to blame for this lack i would say a problem due to their. ignorance alone and the nauruans of needs of people is it a bit with a disability which have been for decades for a few decades probably. and parcel of their lack of. action from the from government for the governments but russia has been and still
9:34 am
is pretty uncomfortable for the disabled is it getting any better at least or it is going to tell us about well let's take mask as an example public service professionals guess i'm obsessed but for instance masses reduce actual lives as there usually are surely everywhere since rand was rand's special little device and . well there is so wrist all the fifty years of. i've been in use in a social texas there are still people we have my military parents and there's an impairment. arise who are. those who hears. and those. and those have. problems due to their parents and i think it's very comparable
9:35 am
esthetic i mean a. provider that the overall system is not accessible at all in the city. well let's see what russians think about disabled in their country spotlights you want to try to find out. why they are well there more than ten million disabled people in this country they do face difficulties let's try to find out what is on their way to living a normal life. i think that our country is not disabled friendly social places and transportation are not designed for those people i also think that our society should be more tolerant towards them. streets apartment buildings stores and all of the social places are not fitted out for people with disabilities i think there was society should change its way of thinking about and treating them we should start with the younger generation we should teach them to be more tolerant inclusive
9:36 am
education is a big plus. the way our society deals with the disabled the younger generation doesn't have any respect for older or disabled people they never think that they might end up being in the same situation being disabled themselves. our society lacks patience compassion kindness towards disabled people there should be many systems and laws changed in our country there is very little being done by our government to better living conditions for them. i think there is very little done for them in terms of social conditions however i think that our people are very helpful when it comes down to helping those need those with disabilities. make a well we just heard the opinions well do you agree with what many people said that the main problem for the disabled people is not the lack of physical access not the problem of physical access to venues and meeting educational facilities but rather
9:37 am
the main problem are the psychological problems the problems within the society within the actually choose is that is that true yes i completely agree with that. and implement for example for an employer and there was a disability. well they're heavily. discriminated and employment. means understanding and problem if it means. the presentation or the initial disabled people. wish it. was. in their minds what spirit speaking about employees well there is. there is sort of prejudice towards towards the disabled people including. of employers and including the medics including government well. in this connection the disabled rights activist why do we avoid didn't for example here's what he says
9:38 am
i quote the situation for people with disabilities here is now worse than in the soviet times it's all i can under cleared war against us says mr weaver do with would you agree with such a pursuit mystic assessment now i wouldn't agree. and there are more. people who are that it is abilities have more access to education they have more access to an environment yes in the process and i'm very slow slowly but surely i'd say on the other hand. alone says social benefits. i'd say that my bet is that that more generous than people's ability with disability is used to have understood tons i mean in comparison to just have a times. i did see it speaking about attitude.
9:39 am
again and. identical as mr we've all been because in terms of eyes it's humid. outside i think it is getting more and more used. now concept of a latent lax to people with a disability. fifteen chancy years ago it was not feasible. people those that it is ability has been invisible problem for the last invisible and the last ignorant group of. people in this country well you are absolutely right because when i when i read this quote from mr willett into came to my mind that in the surgery terms we didn't even see disabled people into the streets and i worked two and talked to a lot with foreigners who came to the soviet union and they said you don't have any disabled people i mean everybody is healthy in this country and i said probably not
9:40 am
but they don't they just they just don't mix that they just don't go out is it true that this was the policy of the soviet government starting from this time and times because i wrote somewhere that after the war. of stalin who was the head of the service they didn't want to see or didn't want the russians to see victims of the war among us yes this was the policy to drive them away from these trees from big cities is it true that this was government policy yes yes yes yes as far as i'm aware first started shortly after the end of the world war two problem manton's forces eight four to seven well i mean i'm not sure about there was a dead and the whole idea of us to give the whole society the empress now their houses her the house in nation. health. and
9:41 am
nation. when a nation house or when a nation so all the victims all veterans severely disabled. basically have eggs their exam as they remember that. island lost in the service child to do this because they didn't want this reminder of the horrors of the war yeah ok so so i'm very glad to hear from you that there that the situation is changing and the attention of the president in his lays the latest addressed a nation is also it's also gives us an optimism here's another quote from mr majid if statistics say that terms of thousands of children with disabilities go without education this country and the president said in his address i quote quite often a disabled child visit to school turns into torture and quote do you think that this attention on such a high level will improve this terrible situation yes i'm sure.
9:42 am
it will start put more emphasis on the. and get some children at sandown mansour schools. those children result as abuse and have disabilities. they would start getting used to. they be yours was a disability from at age at the age. course. that it's was it was a very interesting quote about torture and. and i think it's more. of a moral torture all. this time and not knowing from the in unaware all. his ability of what his ability. what was what caused him to be disability one that particular period their cause in their own class. do and why and.
9:43 am
as long as we try to put off by two efforts on educating children on first of that to get in a mess from investor i mean his investors cause for those who are capable of the answer and example the children ha well as capable of attending western schools i think their children. i think that we have more chances. than a generation off people waste. says they're in the car even or the disabled rights advocate spotlight will be back shortly after we take a break so stay with us.

9:47 am
a government physical of physical barriers physical. i have i have another quote from from. one of the top politicians in this country the federal council chairman sigyn miron said recently i quote almost five four and five million people with disabilities are capable to work but the state doesn't create jobs for them doesn't pressure the employers to give jobs to the disabled as a result the state has to pay allowances to the people who could earn money themselves and create is the new federal program there we're talking about is it going to lose all the situation. well. provides four quarts of one point two quarts for company is. secure in place secure in work and. work in place for the roles that was the disability. well
9:48 am
there is a new draft law i have heard about that that according to this new law that they want to pass the state will no longer be compensating the money that the disabled pay for full for the facilities like the arm chairs and some similar things is there a chance that the disabled organization that that that the activists may block this legislation or is doing to be passed. i think that they're there and the fans and i do i do hope that it will. finally make. their ability to enjoy sarah be more proactive. it's made them be. begin and begin more prayers and ferret. attentive to the needs of people with disabilities. are your organizations powerful
9:49 am

9:50 am
his car the engineer an engineer in an environment of physical marmande excessive excess of all physical engineering and arm and arm and. and i had said that by that time actually the law city government. had been ignoring their law the draft for five seventy years and after a series so friendly of paralysis that made their. check made them change their mind their law their draft pilot was asked ok there are a lot of people with disabilities or from the go beyond what's expected of them showing there really aren't limits to human abilities spotlights limited me there has more in it. you rigs are rebuilt. became russia's national hero after he won through medals in vancouver a last winter oh no russians paralympians brought home thirty eight men also the
9:51 am
success of athletes with disabilities was a kind of compensation for disappointment at the olympic games were russia's performance was the worst in its history and sports is not the only sphere where people with disabilities excel against the awards the recent law schools proceeded festival proved they capable of creating at the very special atmosphere on stage marginalized by society these people are we get to try and make people look at the world through their eyes people with disabilities are not only more for a child and others they're often more perceptible to beauty like this teenager showing issue kena born without arms showing it injuries are and jaw in which she has to do with her toes and st petersburg's maxime's in a congress one of those who expand the family perception of down's working miracles in his wheelchair people like genuine maxime first have to come to terms with their own disabilities to learn to live with them and then to try and prove to the rest
9:52 am
of the world they can do much more than is expected of them their stories make sure you turn out to be great motivators for everyone not only for people whose abilities are limited. to talk to their child about inclusive education trying to educate the new generation to be more more tolerant more compassionate more helpful what do you think is the best way to present the problems and the power of the disabled people to the generation to kids what's the best way to do that. to have a tenant a sense quote doesn't mention school and here. and here understand that. risible children and children who are capable of a tandem master schools they should be there. my experience
9:53 am
is very positive with heaven who was attended when. i attended and remand. for this week. i had a home school indication but meanwhile i turned. some of us for. school most was in some of us social events of school at school and we had some joint classes so even though i didn't attend. in full. my school. never never known another the less that experience was there positive and was very valuable for me but you know the problem with inclusive education is what i know
9:54 am
would be because it is an experiment with inclusive education is carried out in the school where my son go he's in logan and the kids didn't do didn't mind you i mean there were a carrying with with the disabled children going to the same classes but most of the parents were strictly against this. how do you explain that it would also would prejudice was sort of old thinking the problems in the minds of the parents they said this is what we don't want the disabled kids to spoil our children this is going to spoil our school we have a very high quality of education and this will put the level of education down have you know such things and what can we do better if they can't educate area but they don't go to school and what it was like blackwater mentioned again it's a lack of. real understanding and. understanding really mature
9:55 am
people resort to the beliefs and their their capacities. their abilities. and then more with the kids parents of every children to as a result disabilities are the more we. live more of them and we are talk about. abilities it is about children and. i think. the last produce the last prejudiced this was you mentioned that you did receive a proper education and that and that you're actually you're happy with the education you got what helped to and what was your main problem when we're going to school. well mom i would believe there weren't any problems but. there are a lot of problems below. legislation. that occasionally
9:56 am
