in a scale nuclear meltdown fears grow in japan after a number of blocks of the fukushima power plant and it's not just reactors that risk going to south far away moved to worlds off its. authority say radiation levels near one of the reactors are now dangerous to human health reports one of the key containment levels protecting one of the riyadh says has been psalmist around two hundred thousand people have now been evacuated from the surrounding area. called she's had been fragmented in two thousand five hundred people dead so
2:31 am
far and more than three thousand of missing from the powerful earthquake and devastating tsunami that hit movies in japan on friday. a more than ninety countries then being aid to japan to cope with all of this and all the conference rules who are the it's not photonic energy agency for its expect seems an attempt to stabilize at the because it's. coming up next a golf ball flight shed where we talked to another. president of the scientific seismological council of the russian academy of sciences.
2:32 am
hello again of the welcome truth squad like be in for the show on r c i'm now going out and they will be talking about the earthquake in japan one of the worst disasters in japan sicily has left thousands dead as millions without basic intelligence the humanitarian catastrophe could be accompanied by severe because it will prompt two explosions at a nuclear plant of course fears of a radiation leak but may there still be another play any time soon and here's the president of the scientific face the logical council of the russian academy of sciences. last week japan was hit by a magic weight that was pulled by giants in the wave left sample japan's infrastructure and economy badly crippled but the biggest danger is now coming from
2:33 am
the northeast of the country where there have been a number of explosions at the damaged power plant people now if you're a possible nuclear meltdown considering radioactive contamination. i would prefer someone to show thank you very much for being with us well a your institute predicted a huge earthquake in japan as well that production was it unique was it something that only you predicted or it was no secret for the rest of the world. no it's not secret from the all the lord there are several years to go on in our institute every phone to make noice it's mean setting like say to me but i think of the earth if you change it with the wind of their. own experiences be accommodated in the interior so we try to use this method you know institute to
2:34 am
estimate a future in really one of our colleagues and problems of paper and presented report into pony's. society in all. no not the ninety two thousand and eight about. future possible because we can see print in. two thousand and four of all three interplay was also struck me as being smug if you would a point to the end we predicted this is only a foreshock more strong hold so it's published published in the russian people and for fleet in english you predicted that many years ago but today can scientists present not only that there will be and when when it will happen and how precise can this work as the have to days months or maybe hours yes it
2:35 am
is we speak about practical use and of course critics at least mention two steps first step is so-called medium term prediction it's mean that. people try to predict police make good suit and tie by name only you don't want one from one to one years and then it's pretty transfield is going on very well and it was seventy percent success but time with one year two years and when the next step should be is sort of prediction it's not really true means for some days at least two maybe two weeks but in this problem with. difficulties because not me not only read all of the world also small just because reliability or become told the probability of success is very low it's mean maybe one from five alarms will be successful prediction and all thought for it's will
2:36 am
fall the short term is short from a long terms are more precise. more or less so except it is i do or do i get it right if you guys say if your is if you say there will be an earthquake in that. asian it means that it will happen but nobody knows where the sub day is right at least not immediately yet however i thought mention that in such case or at the. present. japan earthquake or some day or speak with very good circumstances where because two days before there was a thick winds of rocks more than a shocks appeared in the of this example of insurers creek and it's not unique situation in our history also recovered at least. such cases when sickness or as creeks because for folks before main struggles and so i think the chance existed to predict where it may be if not well used in the age of computer
2:37 am
technology is a quick prediction still remains a challenge as we hear now spotlights you know energy neither has more. every year the regular east doesn't high magnitude earthquakes and around the world indian ocean a squid in two thousand and four caused a tsunami which killed over two hundred thirty thousand people in fourteen countries there were several hours between the quake and the tsunami he did some countries so theoretically the number killed would have been less but at the time the area was not covered by detection and communication systems which could predict the disaster will predict an earthquake is a much bigger challenge than predicting its for what it's an army after the deadly siege on earth quake in two thousand and eight several chinese geologists coin bear had predicted the disaster the chaney's authorities did not support because
2:38 am
a green earthquake prediction was a world problem the haiti earthquake which more than three hundred thousand people was not a surprise to some of the world's a small it is several large groups have been keeping an eye. on the region for a possible disaster. the science continued predict a specific day or month on the way to plans probably technically best prepared for preventing disasters japanese scientists had known gone before the quake would happen when on the ninth of march the country was heat by sudden magnitude earthquake. that was it two days later japan was struck by the deadliest week in its history. is it true what we just saw those pretty sharp. couple of small shots may have been taken by the public as the quake and they didn't expect the big one. i mentioned already was
2:39 am
a sequence or small events in before this and it was quick and their public feels this is it or not we're just small over rocks that everybody can feel their the problem is of it is what has probability of it will fall all good events from this problem and i don't know independent case the whole people reacted on these trucks i believe they will just do a bit of focus and but what. could be some official. the corporation or for or not if the plan from the country for social. environment from the economic reasons and the aftershocks that you mentioned the forward shots how long may they happen after the main have to the main event means
2:40 am
i mean after millions of nearly more of. us are folks know more about a year three years at least here at least and how strongly they be and they're not in this place exactly in this please for the kind of expect screen. with the same force but near this epicenter made of people under commuters five hundred kilometers and the end of this was on could be another earthquake approximately the same because because this one was nine hundred nine on the richter scale is that right yeah it's a great noise was ever then eleven percent in the. cost of japan was about nine so we can expect now to be but not of the same place wasn't if it was ten or eleven if it was nine on the curbs to where people lived isn't it a miracle that only a thousand people died because we're three hundred thousand people can die hundred tens of thousand in here populated areas and only one thousand is it because the
2:41 am
japanese are unaware it isn't because they're organized people is it because of the deconstruction is meant to withstand the quakes what's the reason there are only thousand people. i should mention a couple more first one of course is good construction of buildings most of this place i'm sure was built to keep the nine and second one people who had it where it both future every day in japan every t.v. discuss what's going on and where is it so people know where they live and they're prepared to run away as possible what's a specialist quakes thousand fatalities should be should be took her how much aus and thousands you. so the number is there that we had the first couple days there
2:42 am
in the thousand will will be grossing you i think so because not everybody is still discouraged. listen russia also has territories situated in the so-called ring of fire near the sun highly in their e. . the chat area are there forecasts saying they're predicting a. serious earthquake on russian soil yes yes first of all. of them just plain city of. we expect. a boat aid from one to five years up to no and russian government. and a locators of fons and improve the build of these workers we're not now and probes them second place we expect was created the future. islands needed to print the. ever to more or because a scientific meeting to discuss this prediction. at least now to please us to
2:43 am
explain peter's a function of. some of the president of the scientific face council at the russian academy of science to stop life will continue after we take a short break we'll follow up with this interview so stay where you want to go. wealthy british style. sometimes. markets find out. find out what's really happening to the global economy
2:44 am
with mike's concert for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune into cars reports. yes my name is daniel smith this is joining us on the we're here to make a short presentation of all that we can fix project. the first. in the fourth grade in three to get information out about the real world claiming to him war. on the matter. the secrecy is the biggest. going to be a democracy. if i ever put in the sauce this danger you would hunt me down and kill. this is exactly one of the reasons why we left the country because it has become a war of all of this all james bond. then all the actual information.
2:45 am
2:46 am
also we're also joined by did shoot off from tokyo japan hello a bit can you can hear us. yeah i can hear you. what's the situation right now in japan our people still afraid we're just talking with professor about the possible aftermath or about the aftershocks are people afraid of are the aftershocks. very much i think very much you know partial i'm staying in talk you're. in talk of the situation is quite different from those areas. which well i was starting to go to even talk to you if you'll know of those you see the tea shops almost on fortunately and the reason the result. problems was an edgy and. you're not really feel comfortable i don't know professor some will have said that that this pride the figures that we're having
2:47 am
today that probably in a couple of days or maybe a week or so the number of casualties will be much more if need be if need be no hundreds but rather thousands what all what are the speculations in japan how many casualties are people expecting. japanese do experiments everything anything pork anything it's basically you leave injured. anything can happen to you from nature so it's all but the biggest problem people are worried about is the second. the second time hits talk you're. they are everybody else these two may be hard and in few days unfortunately it is supposed to be solved or lost a lot which means closer to. them or more damage i believe that's
2:48 am
why we saw people buying what are lot of problems just because nobody knows what it's going to be. after the second hit doesn't look like panic or people just being cautious not people are nervous and cautious but the reason all. people stay the choice is to be cold and another question i have is that people rush hour are saying that after the blasts on this power of the nuclear power station japan is entering a period of what they call the chair novel syndrome people say we don't want any more power stations let's get rid of nuclear power stations is that right are people in jeopardy having this chair novel syndrome. as far as i can say today. the problem is that comparing to russia or ukraine japan does not
2:49 am
really have a big territory which is for anything to get to be built up there for the reason all space to say well let's start off all our nuclear power plants and built up something else or get energy from somewhere there's some other sources i think people will stay patient and just understand understand the situation. ok thank you thank you very much albert and you take care down there and a reminder to our viewers that this was our very direct tell you are joining us via skype from tokyo japan with his latest comments on the developments in japan and they're just sort of mind of it here in the studio we have professor. professor what would you say was it was just discussing this power nuclear power station blast was it a wise thing to to to to build a nuclear power station in such say small logically active areas. first
2:50 am
of all the first mention i am glad taught to hear from this or our japanese friend there. exists in japan there is no talking about before they are organized in champneys they are all over an organ are very nice and also the accustomed to live in such a country and really good education for us from school and so one it's very pleasant about nuclear stations is that when from economical situation i think people will still continue to build out a mix nations the problem with where police the truth or the safety place and i was in when i was in the interplay in two or three but two thousand and three discussion was about where it to build new administration in japan can be also very clearly for discussed how to choose the police so i think this administration has
2:51 am
started to become pincer when things are ok now what i would like to hear. is going in russia you said that there are there are risks in syria in areas of russia. that there may be and probably will be earthquakes are we using any technologies similar to japanese technologies in building construction organization there that will that will prevent high casualties if it happens. it is going on slowly the problem glenn the promise of funds the money it's very expensive each building to keep in there and thirty nine much several times more of. little concrete will appeal to another and also something dumped. into the basement of buildings and so what so it's very expensive several times more expensive than usual building these are the main problem because if. you play nice suit and you put
2:52 am
a lot of money it will build such gap. but they have no choice in ninety ninety four of the new earth quake unsubtly and destroyed the city of new after goes through a destroyed prattled. practically told only now they're all sixteen years ago is the situation is improving slowly but is it any better now than it was sixteen years ago. yes excuse me you have a little bit mistake but will destroy it enough to go to not know only one street of the same person constructed buildings and buildings with a certain amount of it was not destroyed at all because i work until i remember the picture i like a picture of the whole city they down to the ground cities of being in be sure were careful what one street was destroyed completely because of where you poor construction were very poor if not cement we instead of bricks that we have
2:53 am
some concrete blocks it's all one without cement and first second their design equip map of how because they could be very poor. people cannot expect and ever people who build to build and have no expects us to want to speak after this new. appeared. to develop. and certainly increase there. could have been an ever so quick prediction community no iraq and civilian especially to look around when people watch television these days especially in russia they say that something wrong. is happening with aviation because we having more. air crashes than we used to have like twenty years ago but people say no it's the information we just have more information about what's going on now what about what about earthquakes one of these disasters is it's also
2:54 am
a problem of information all really are witnessing a rise in say small logical to vittie here certainly kill us off we increase an increase in call dental post on course quicks it was in sixteenth century or it was in beginning or in the beginning of a century in. next to you what a lot of earthquakes happen ever in the twenty first century all the idea. quakes earthquake and hours and they're great it was in china earthquake it was in the market or earthquake so now as he would often creel say some he said so this is true here that is no place little they've laid aside i say to them they say what will the cycle be over. soon according to you is a couple of decades not on or it's usually
2:55 am
a one hundred eight one day ok you know what makes the pacific. maybe i'm wrong especially vulnerable to earthquakes look now in this century all are you an earthquake in peru in chile and also in new zealand recently now interpreting it before in chain or in two or eight so it's a bit of a different religion but it's all around the pacific ocean. yes but there's more events that are so huge and because the the earth's crust plates. move in the put in different direction and they increase the stress the long. the cost of the question which can only be answered by a scientist like yourself the japanese say that this latest quake moved the world axis a little bit of the axis is it is it true and this is a big danger the movement of the axis of. this is now only thirty tickle
2:56 am
speculations. it's necessary to. proves this by x. they meant a lot to ration how change the time sequence let's take some types of course and modern techniques to measure time low to make this but now i'm afraid to talk this through with maybe but it should be checked but and but if it's true it may be that a big no no not at all not really not to stop it becomes a work environment thank you thank you very much for being with us and just a reminder that my guest here in the studio today was good not to solve the president of the scientific ses the logical council at the russian academy of sciences sciences and albert did say the offer was joining us from tokyo japan and that's it for now from all of us here like we'll be back with more firsthand comments on what's going on in an outside rush on till then stay on r.t. and take it thank you mr.
