everyone got over the course of history and humanity is one of the secretary of the french science academy and the woman who predicted the breakup of the soviet union in one thousand nine hundred seventy eight in her book pickle laps of an empire is here with us today i think it was. thank you very much my dumbed down course for your time. in your recent book between two walls you talk of russia can we presume from the title that you think russia still hasn't found its place in the walt. of sims was not exactly what the book says is that russia has made these kind of decision but over the past ten years it's been pursuing two different paths rather than one what i've been trying to explain is that after the soviet union disintegrated russia rushed to europe but as you have did not offer

a warm welcome since the beginning of this century or russia's foreign policy has been focusing on two directions rather than on one on the one hand and fall courses on the west on the other hand because it was joe graphical position and decided to position itself as an asian country it gives a great it was an influence in the world it's been pursuing this policy for more than ten years now and has broad great success and then out of the twentieth century russia's international reputation around the world was not very good but now after the past decade it's obvious that it's been reckoned ver's it's a big change russia has taken a very important step forward and in my pin in this process is irreversible russia has become a world power at the flipper voice. in your introduction you raised the question of whether russia should be feared do you mean that the imperial russia and then the

soviet union which. europe used to be afraid of are still alive. to think that gave up on this not only in europe the collapse of the soviet union was not anticipated it happened overnight many came to it is primarily those who are to solve it influence the eastern european countries and countries that used to be part of the soviet union but are now into balance states did not understand russia and are afraid of it as eastern european countries have become e.u. members they have showed a few years and passed them on to the you saying that russia used to be an empire so why should it seize being an empire and can't be trusted now that is imperial past has been forgotten by now people have already understood it russia is pursuing its own path but time has shown that georgia for example which is always being saying that it wants to save itself from russia that's why it wanted to access nato it feels that russia will dominate georgia again didn't work i think that's

a few years originate from some kind of misunderstanding of the breakup of the soviet union because it was so sudden that no one could adjust themselves to immediately all the european and priors have collapsed but they collapsed after decades of preparation you were in russia itself was not ready to throw you don't believe in russia's imperial ambitions to write i don't believe it or i'd rather say there was some kind of innocent algeria but that's a completely different saying what a country can forget overnight that it used to be a powerful empire but russia has common sense despite the fact that some russians say used to be so good and that is a shame is forgotten about for a still russian people and specifical isn't our have common sense and they're to stand too well that it's over and it's russia's future is not to be an empire but rather to build up its reputation and via satellite our rather than. by force. this

will be a king as well there was that a lot of the main s. to europe types are russian faces today. and that's the exodus because russia has the legacy of the solve it here in and it will be marred by this stigma for a long time i come from a country in which the collapse of the empire was a difficult one but bloodshed in the fifty's and sixty's was yeltsin sad to take as much as you can swallow and another day he said you're free get out of here many things about fashion haven't gotten the people from godly some xs to was dominating under still fear and then got scared of the country or what it was or how or not their ability to speak as positively was early going to as all this was for gardening and these new russia was not only still dicey what engine your country are people suspicious of russia i don't know what to say to that or the thoughts of your current president nicolas sarkozy said in his election campaign it's better to

shake hands with than with putin who would you shake hands with. and then you have to all i feel uncomfortable talking about my president is changed a great deal in he was in love with america it was an example of where a believer would that he did not know russia was of hungary origin and hungary it was a factor but the soviet union to a certain extent and even by russia you can see it's come a long way that he chose russia and i agree with him but it's in europe's interests and in france's interests for france has always had its interest in relations with russia. and why has the course changed what is these changes related to the prospect of an answer simply because you realize what's right he's a very smart guy really i should not be calling my president a guy well he's a very smart person or chairman he's very active and he thinks something over he

got to. understand things correctly and he took a look at the world and has realized a lot of things only two years of what you're realize trust that russia wasn't a terrible country it was a country to be spoken to not let the georgian incident tapped into he stablished close relations with the russian president and prime minister he realized the dial o'gara european country is the most important thing to build relations with russia he also realized russia was a european country or at least he didn't understand very well it for us he also realized that europe was no longer strong it was falling out of the history of global relations always going to fall out of it was to be completely cv it from russia his current position which i think is very smart is not the trash should be part of europe russia is too vast for europe it would not adapt what we need he thinks is a model for all asians but for what why does europe yet russia now. or russia is

needed because the entire history of international relations is moving away from europe it's played out in asia even the us a city country is refocusing its foreign policy on asia you're aware of the huge countries that will plays a big roles located here in asia or latin america but that's a different question now what is the current state of european asian relations europe is of no interest asia view europe as a landmass that tree choose to pacific ocean with russia and europe are not a whole but if a picture there was an alliance then we can say europe reaches the pacific if this is the reason europe needs russia and i'm not sure if russia is europe but europe at the moment needs russia what i want that i ask. for in one of your interviews you spoke about the role of poland and said it could become

a great. between europe and russia what kind of bridge and what are the current dynamics of russian polish relations was a passing thought until very recently it seemed like a great idea but now represent between russia and poland has actually happened i think however that some politician who's smart politicians foresaw this even prime minister donald to disk he was bringing poland closer to russia before the plane crashed the ball and has always been the final frontier of europe russia began after that france here is also in close contact with ukraine the question of ukraine is very delicate given you e.u. accession without exception russia would upset russian europe with poland is a bridge of sorts between russia and europe it's a bridge to russia because it is at the same time a slab it and a european country which could serve for bream's kind who is closer russia and

europe holiday russia and ukraine and russia so poland could play a historical role if it in the stands the situation center of one of them or so if not i'm of on course at one point you predicted the collapse of the soviet union any new forecasts for more than russia. that's for fear no i don't email forgot it's just what i was writing about to solve and i didn't see it as a forecast i looked at the can tweet and saw so many negative and elements that i couldn't help but ask myself how long will it last i don't make forecasts as a rule historian if i look at the past and try to figure out what's happening in the present i think russia has come a long way over the past twenty years it is having some difficulties as countries do it's not easy to introduce democracy or capitalism it to western europe's

a choice to do that or do. it within twenty years isn't so easy that i think russia is following the path he chose in one thousand nine hundred ninety one there have been ups and downs but i don't see any discomfort u.-t. so i think we can become a future it started until ignoring the war like you know one country as it was before if somebody asked you to describe more than russian just three words what would those words be. the frost fund would be mighty which it wasn't ten years ago and that was a the second important aspect is that modern russia makes small time nationality actually work multiple nationalities was what killed to solve it union. would be dynamic. by the time time goes thank you very much thank you.

different regions of russia. we'd like to extend his geography but so far beyond the gloss that they're rated to meet their requirements each team has to pay around to four hundred thousand u.s. dollars and france be at the beginning of the season and there arena should have a capacity of at least three dollars. something so radio looks solid in the d.l.c. for example the leak is very competitive it was only around twenty percent of their results finish and was a wider than ten point margin between the teams but there are just a song for now each has to be sixty four games to be shown something unimaginable for well established leaks there is a big problem with sports markets in russia because ratings or for sports programs is very poor compared with two scholz somethings programs russian television. he said that it's not interesting for them to produce distance
