planned to meet a number of people from the north caucuses here in the very heart of the russian capital to basically fight out their differences of course police decided that it is better to be safe than sorry and deployed a very large number of riot police all around in one year's where to prevent any aggression like the clashes that we saw happen last week on saturday between football fans and riot police we managed to talk to a representative the press spokeswoman of the moscow special forces team who said that gave us some details about why the police are here exactly what they were expecting to happen. but if we can if you just talk more we had information that finds that the dynamic football club could come here to have some switch meeting with people from the russia's north caucasus to guaranteed people security from clashes moscow police to provide huge additional security measures here at the man years and ask where we didn't use the underground shopping center which was decided

by the send to security staff because earlier today the russian president meeting with the aid of condemned the violence that took place on saturday here at nine years square saying that any perpetrators that instigate such violence especially hatred based on an aggression based on a religious or ethnic or national differences should be punished by the law the police should do everything in their power to prevent any such actions and all and every one of those responsible for instigating violent clashes here on saturday will be brought to justice. must give you the recent events in most of the disorder attacks on people should be classified as crimes and the people behind them punished especially dangerous where the action is aimed at shooting hatred in whole still as he based on racial national or religious differences such actions are a threat to the state stability of the new. interact such actions police can and

must use any means allowed by the law and restraints any legal necessary and sufficient means is that this shouldn't be any chaos on the streets or in public places that us over sixty people were detained some of those have already been released but these are holding on to many of those as they believe they have more than enough evidence to charge them with aggravated assault or hooliganism or basically provoking any kind of racial hatred or violence but the violence that broke out here was very quick almost impossible to stop even though the police were doing everything in their power to put the localized the fights they did manage to disperse the crowds after a while but even then because most of the fans most of the people that were here were using the underground to leave there was quite a heavy police presence in the underground as well and we know that there were reports of several clashes between fans and police officers in the underground as

well. with landless three to burbage says nationalists have recently hijacked a football fun community police probably hold that by negotiating with the leaders of the founds they can somehow avoid violence by yourself or speak to friends of their own police expect to find some kind of healthy force among them that's my impression and i think it was a mistake because there are no house of force and on the road has been the last few years there so just try to stem the violence they try to limit obviously and now the nationalist groups have understood that they would use full flounce as a sort of cannon fodder for their own actions. coming up all set for the final frontier we catch up with the latest mission the international space station as the crew prepared to blast off from baikonur. the white house says the u.s. senate will pass the key nuclear arms treaty with russia before the new year but it

needs to be ratified in both russia and the u.s. but there's been vocal opposition from some u.s. republican senators artie's got a teacher cares in washington d.c. . that accords believe they can get the treaty ratified by december seventeenth when this congress finishes its work we have one week left in the lot of people are nervous but we heard several republican senators say the votes are there and the treaty will most likely be ratified by the end of this week here's what the starts key negotiators said i do think that we have as i mentioned done our homework with regard to the new start treaty and it is. in a good situation to ratify it in the slam duck session well if the ratification is put off which is unlikely the new congress will deal with the treaty and it's not going to be pretty reasons are brought out for that one the new senate is going to be more republican and their main mission as they openly described it will be to undermine obama in every possible way which is certainly not going to help the treaty and second it was this congress that had done all the homework on the new

start those of been eight months of hearings and in-depth discussion if the treaty ends up on the table of the new senate a new cycle will begin and it could be put off indefinitely maybe for months or years so the administration democrats in the senate and some republicans who are strongly advocating for the treaty say now is the time in terms of substance if you look at key questions concerns whatever senators had regarding the new start those were all addressed it has the unanimous support of the military and many top officials former and present have testified in favor of the treaty seems the only thing that could be standing in the way of the new start now are partisan games political bargaining which has very little to do with the treaty itself and its content the new start is arguably obama's major foreign policy achievement so he's trying real hard to push it through we heard him call for republican senators to step away from this overwhelming desire to undermine his presidency and really look

at the treaty itself and how important it is for the u.s. national security to start is not just about reducing that to country's nuclear arsenals by a third. it's seen as a symbol of trust between the two nuclear superpowers and obama made it clear that further cooperation plans with russia could really go south without these key trading places stressed how important russia's existence is in have ghana stand out crucial watches cooperation with the new rand and other aspects of this is us russia reset and everybody here realizes that the new start is sort of the milestone of this we set going to count for three a massive cash injections being promised a bit of fire of russia's dated military prime minister vladimir putin says that moscow will spend over six hundred billion dollars on upgrading the armed forces the investment will be spread over the next decade and is aimed at bringing the russian military up to modern standards good instead the government will purchase twelve hundred units of domestic military hardware new five troops will be open to

reconstruction needs russia's current armed forces are largely based on aging salvia technology most of which is due to be scrapped by twenty twenty. coming up in the program we'll tell you how russian authorities are taking the hard line on hard core substance abuse the string of the online ads deliberately designed to shock and upset attention of users away from starting a lethal. crisis on the korean peninsula and pyongyang has disputed nuclear program were at the heart of talks between the russian and north korean foreign ministers russia says it is deeply concerned over reports of industrial uranium enrichment in north korea and called for six party talks to restart what he got to skin off we tried to find out more about the high level meeting held behind closed doors. we do know that pyongyang's nuclear program is the most important issue being discussed north korea walked out of the six party talks last year which also include the united states south korea china japan and russia. also expelled international

nuclear monitors from the country and continued with the nuclear tests calling causing off a huge wave of condemnation across the world this really worries russia since it borders in north korea and the peninsula is a neighboring region for russia and the the recent rise of tensions in on the peninsula is making the situation even worse since last month north korea launched an attack on the one of south korea's islands shelling it four people were killed at least eighteen others were injured pyongyang said that in fact south korea attacked northern territory's before that this was a reply by using force so this just shows how unstable the region still is the fact that south korea is increasing cooperation with the united states constantly holding various military drills in the region in fact even after north korea's

attack on that island south korea and the united states held a new set of military exercises south korea's has also recently held the new mormons which is calling for even closer ties with washington and this is definitely an intimidating factor for north korea such close ties with the united states at this moment may make the tensions even higher. meanwhile while leading east asia around was told r.t. that russia has a pivotal role in helping to stabilize the region because its goal is peace and not to exercise political muscle. russia is the only country that does have a stake box no specific interest. group actually there's a difference between russia and the european union so russia can actually be a trustworthy and reliable view neutral broker who wanted for us that russia those concerns will use as the go to win over those

a situation emerging that might move to a war that will inevitably not only involved both careers but also china us will have a negative impact on those the ability in the region and on russia and hands russia's major preoccupation is actually maintaining peace. ruediger frank from the east asian institute speaking to us there from vienna been earlier tonight. the russian deputy prime minister's visit to the southern coastal islands near japan has had a frosty reaction from tokyo the japanese premier went as far as calling it a quote regrettable move the air in question has been a sensitive topic for both countries since world war two soviet forces took control of the four islands during the conflict the territories believed to be rich in natural resources tokyo for its part is demanding that russia returns the archipelago while moscow insists that would never japan has to begin with it is the second visit by a russian official to upset the japanese lately in november tokyo temporarily

recalled its ambassador from moscow after president a bed of became the first russian needed to set foot on the currents. next tonight shock tactics a limb an aging drug and alcohol abuse of divided opinion across russia videos of deformed fetuses and children eating feces are just a small part of a controversial new online campaign authorities though of defended the ad saying that only harsh reality will discourage youngsters and kick some sense into addicts you may find some of the images of briffa notion is report disturbing. needs a happy motto for it to my she says masha i used to smoke marijuana when i was pregnant with the fifty six internet ad as part of a stomach joining anti drug compay in a sashing sashenka i was already on heroin then just surprisingly it's the least offensive side of the series designed to shock some of them may leave

a bad taste in your mouth quite literally like this one for instance. that's why we stop it here. it says that keeping quiet about drug abuse among school kids is like keeping dirt in your mouth the disturbance adverse has provoked a huge discussion on the web one just how far we can go in trying to keep youngsters away from drugs that was about to quit yes it causes a slight nausea impulse but that's what we need it will make those children who now think that it's bad to tell their parents and teachers about dealers in other words they do not report on dealers or let them consider which is better with their mouths or without an issue. every year more than one hundred thousand people officially dying from drug related deaths and that doesn't see you size say countries to. people but opening the scale of the problem rather than concern themselves of all the distant sea of the adverts. who are that's what are you know

contradictory and should we just keep silent about everything why ok let's keep our mouths shut and just live on the twenty year old us die and millions and billions of dollars plug into drug dealers pockets while we just pretend that everything is perfect in our society both of us. behind the fact that the anti drug advert is getting more primitive is another shocking reality the targeting audience is getting younger and younger and the average age when youngsters in russia first try drugs has jumped to thirteen years with the ethics every life expectancy just twenty one. this is aimed at them so it has to be primitive in order to work do you think they don't know what drugs are bad when they just need to have it literally every in their minds the shocking can pain is actually a government initiative a response to the country's need priority in fighting the drug problem but as a concept we've always been concentrated on finding drugs and withdrawing them this

july we've adopted a new state drug strategy now we need to focus on decreasing demand for here rather than trying to cope with the consequences. with the government's recent refocus on preventive measures we can expect more and more projects like this one aimed at literally disgusting the idea of drugs out of youngsters minds and yes it may be unpleasant looking but so are the statistics of drug abuse in the country and if there is a chance no matter how small that this can stop some from stepping onto these slippery slope its creators say it's worth the arthritis causing raef notion r.t. more scope. we relax a fine ride fear bit later in the program this monday night the first hybrid car described as small but powerful and which promises to keep the city air clean a closer look coming up. first the cost of those prime ministers declaring victory

political power is important also because it's a cover for criminal activity provides a very great smokescreen you where you can do the things underneath that smokescreen but what possible needs is to be linked as it should be to the rest of serbia its economic natural hinterland its source of strength it should not be cut off and all it means is long term there will be no stable future for what was yugoslavia what they now call the western balkans until this one sidedness and the buyers in western diplomacy as is addressed. michael guess it so is national news in brief police have arrested a sword wielding seventeen year old into the group of children the stage of a nurse released in frys all the pupils and teachers involved were released without harm in the end many of those held were let go as the police negotiator the teenager over the phone the rest of freedom for authorities entered building local media despite the hostage taker is quote mentally unstable. a roadside bomb exploded near
