a new cake or rules julie the solider must be extradited to sweden over sex drive elevations but we do leaks founder says it's a step towards prosecution in the us. and the leader of the current trio characters are chosen as mass gods for the sochi twenty fourteen winter olympics after the results of the lying to the vote across russia. with spiralling middle east unrest to draining wars in afghanistan and iraq an increasing threat of nuclear proliferation us foreign policy is burdened by a glut of pressing problems aren't you spoke to brant scowcroft former u.s. national security advisor about the challenges faced by the u.s. today. mr scowcroft thank you very much for joining all t. you belong to the school of foreign policy realists that's what they say for this and your public come up with

a career stretching across five american expert ministrations so i would like to discuss several foreign policy issues with you and your view what are the consequences for the u.s. middle east policy after the toppling of mubarak in egypt and ben ali in tunisia you know one is always caught off guard by revolutions. because there are a surprise if there were a surprise to president ben ali and to president mubarak it's hardly unusual will be a surprise to us that. the instabilities in the region are of course obvious and have been for a long time the question is can they been handed can they be dealt with. in a in a thoughtful sensible way or does it have to involve. unrest and. i think you know we have to wait and see so far the egyptian

crisis has been managed i think quite route to action armies behave i think very well neither repressing the demonstrations nor encouraging. its changes coming to the region and but that was that was inevitable as the old leaders. past similar scenes so i think we need to be careful but not to misty fundamentally fundamentally our policy should change in our policy is the development of open societies cooperativeness and progression of development for all the countries of the region and it's always been part of iraq president obama has started withdrawing troops from iraq once all the forces including security personnel leave the country in your view is there a danger of iraq slipping back into the civil war i think iraq is in

or is interpreter precarious state they're still in fact forming a government months after an election to do so there are sharp divisions inside the country. and it's hard to say exactly how they will develop i would be more comfortable. with a somewhat longer american presence so that they would be more inclined to solve their problems by discourse rather than strength but we'll have to wait and see and you don't think that. the danger is there oh i think the danger is there i think there are still still many forces tending to pull the country the side indeed one of the reasons for the strength of the dictatorship was to hold the country together but i am hopeful that the

people will see the benefits of compromising their differences rather than insist upon them and destroying the state do you think that the nato mission in afghanistan is doomed just like the british failed in the nineteenth century in the soviet union just twenty years ago no i don't think so because i think we are the united states is there for a different reason which is not to control afghanistan but to make sure that al qaeda or other terrorist band don't use afghanistan as a base from which to attack us you anybody else so yeah our our goal is much more limited and i think they're for. one can have more optimism and one of the previous occupants of afghanistan you yourself i think have been saying that

the term war on terror. was compromised it has indeed been compromised how does that marry with the you know with the terrorism threat but it's not going anywhere where terrorism threat is one thing a war is another and terrorism is a technique of combat it is not you can't make war on a technique so i think war on carer's was designed to motivate the people for a maximum effort terrorist something that we all have to deal with and i'm going to have to for a long period of time it's in part a product of the modern age like television like radio people are now politicized by issues that they didn't care about for because they didn't know about and so i

think it's a long term struggle against extremists who want to destroy a civilization that they can't cope with it seems that there is no progress in stopping the iranian nuclear program in your view what are the chances that the united states may resort to the military option i think there is still a possibility to avoid a confrontation. i think iran is a case that relative related to the reason that i'm here and that is cooperation between the united states and russia are no whole nuclear fuel cycle. iran has every right. to have nuclear power that does not have the right to build nuclear weapons and i think.

the extent to which we can cooperate to induce iran to take the opportunities that are available and that is nuclear fuel for russia return a nuclear fuel not insist on enriching its own uranium or doing things like that and i wouldn't rule out that. that we would be successful how much is you know is this the opinion shared in the united states i don't think i'm alone i am not sure but i don't think there's any eagerness. to deal with iran by force and i think the extent the increasing degree of cooperation between the united states to russia on this issue will have a big impact. on iran and what it decides to do but there is also quite strong mood within the government of israel and sort of you know they

support and it's hard on iran well israel has what it considers an existential problem with iran but i think if we can deal with the nuclear problem. then israel will be reassured that what is your assessment has the research. and as why the obama administration sees it go brought any serious results if not what could be the reasons i was a little disappointed for a year or so i am now encouraged i think now that we're beginning on a much more positive course. both sides have ratified the new start treaty and that is. a major step forward in terms of renewing a co-operative since the. nuclear cooperation agreement along twenty three agreement as we call it is now in force and i think the the

warmth between the two and the progress we've made together with respect to iran for example and i think even on afghanistan there is a sense that we both there we have a common problem there common of the export of export of her one so those things. are leading and i feel good about the reset right now why were you disappointed then did you feel that those two little happening yes yes i thought that i thought the language of reset was good but but there didn't seem to be much follow through for a time and now it just took time to catch more but now i feel very good about it since you've already mentioned starts what is its political impact on the u.s. pressure relations i think what it really does is is continue the framework that we've built up really over fifty years of how to talk and how to

deal. with the military nuclear issue that it continues that process and now we can look at ways we still possess over ninety percent of the world's nuclear weapons so we need to work together to ensure that those weapons are never never need be you and that is to increase the stability of the nuclear bombs so whatever the problem between us there's no incentive. to use and when i think now the way is clear for us to sit down and have that kind of discussion there's still there's so many nuclear weapons out there whether it's not just a matter of numbers it's doing the kinds of things that ensure those weapons are never going to be used and that take that'll take a lot more discussion goshi ation thoughtfulness on both sides. but i'm sure we can make progress now that we've laid the groundwork as the scowcroft thank you very

great power from the russian too much in the end let me tie the russians career. here you know it was never played out much we played so many times against each other we always have tough encounters so you know i was just trying to fight for every point concentrate and i think i kept my focus very very well i just was trying to go for my shots really hit it i was able to win this one world number two roger federer is yet to beat novak djokovic said grabbing his third straight by title with a convincing straight sets win over the swiss my straight strain open champ djokovic had beaten fed rate in the seventies in melbourne and was very tasty he before. it's a fantastic when. i raised up to. play there fantastic match from the start to the end you know yesterday i wasn't happy with my semifinal performance but today was was absolutely different story from the first to the last point i

second one is even more powerful spark that equalizing just seconds from the first intermission one one style was quick to restore their lead after the break and it in style better proof of finishing his teammates effort here however as they say it's not over till it's over steph and discoursed to bring the one called back to wife two to nevertheless go we're still in control and promptly to believe again on power play two on tom boot three two. and it turned out to be the decider with nixon and again a netting twice more in the third period to serve the final score five to three serious meaning scar just one win away from the western conference semifinals. actually sports are didn't even make a show all we've got scars still have to improve we have some aspects of the game which needs to be fine and we can surely do even better. not

over yet we shouldn't think forward until the job is done just talks about it with my teammates but we need to win one more game to decide the serious and we'll do our best to make it happen as soon as possible get up there in whites have never been that type. roberts well known r.t. . have another quarter final ties in the western conference played atlanta. see one up in that best of seven series. postseason regulars that they are the western conference top down to one in their series against the seventh ranked in armaments and amerigo demolished their namesakes in the russian capital in latvia series stands two one well. now an english premier league match tonight have gone four points clear of arsenal after their four no win over we're going on saturday a phrase from mexicans have begun and is helping them to all three points elsewhere will also defeated blackpool by four goals to kneel to climb out of the bottom
