bringing you the latest in science technology from around the world. we've got the future covered. hello again i was going to spotlight the interview show on our state i'll be in the heart and today marty guest in just to deal is your news bit yes poor. russia has lately experienced serious of terrorist attacks on some of its creatures a number of these attacks were carried out by suicide bombers many of them came from gresh the northern caucuses where social problems still feed extra is there a clue to the problem here is the head of russia's southern part of the public.

here of the russian federation. of. the government of a new shirt he has been trying really hard to improve the social and economic situation in the republic. of his working closely with moscow and catching unemployment which is one of the highest russia it's one of the reasons blamed for extremist recruitment colonel youth group doesn't think using force against extremists will help instead is exercising a peaceful and personal approach. hello mr ainsworth thank you very much for coming to our program hello mr the score of. the war against terrorist networks in your republic i asked you the same question fifteen months ago not how much progress have you achieved hands then. when. you must have noticed that journalists are usually quick to notice here or think both good and that of course we have made good progress in i would like to emphasize

that we achieved it not only through the use of force but most importantly it was done through crime prevention measures we talk to people especially those who have relatives in terrorist groups. you see our approach is that we look at them not as them and it's and if we look at them as young guys who got involved in this bloody war against their own people and you do some unfortunate circumstances and so we do our best to talk them out of it and to date we see that this kind of criminal activity has dropped in our republic drastically this year our statistics for the first two and a half months for a terrorist to tunis grave crimes and attacks on law enforcement officers are all zero levels. and that's the head of nga said he is f

has be. said that in the past year about fifty former terrorists workers waited to go back to normal life. how do you know that they're not just playing games can you guarantee that these people terrorists criminals or whatever you call them won't take up their arms again. first of all these are not terrorists and they've been terrorists they would have been properly prosecuted what are they these are people who were on their wanted list. for most of them their crimes have never been proved . they were afraid to come out of their hiding places and then it's usually recruit new members from these get a group of people they've been part. no it's not a matter of being part and actually i'm very grateful to letting her go or bond

with f.s.b. chief in english. because this work has been very effective largely due to the fact that there is close cooperation between government officials on one hand and law enforcement agencies on the other because you said that they were never proven guilty so they return to normal life does it mean that they will be tried later and at some point they may be found guilty. here is what we say to their relatives and everyone else actually. to your request we can check our records and we will tell you what the charges against your realty of what that and what kind of punishment he would have face according to law. but if he turns himself in the world then testifies that term would be reduced or what not. and this too was according to law all we do is treat warning to law as

a result your altar of stays alive he will be interrogated he testifies you get a chance to see him and after he's convicted we will try to get him to serve his term in the north caucasus. in southern russia we cannot guarantee that but we will do our best to ensure that it is the bill so at least fifty people came out of the woods they turned themselves in and many of them went to prison voluntarily is that correct. well these fifty people actually it's fifty four with intricately were convicted and the rest acquitted. with the rest of them and their guilt wasn't proved. we help me o. them to get into schools or good. jobs you know one time i was meeting with college students and one of those students even told me you have to need a bandage to get

a job in in. this because they all have heard about the support we offer to those people so i explained the situation to them and they all agreed that these people do need support so that they can return to normal life here though i think you will agree the money is not the only factor affecting extremists recruitment us both for example zone those who organize the recent terrorist attack on them idea the airport work and gosh you yourself said and i quote but in order to eradicate extremism influence and young people we need to look for ideologists what do you know who these ideologists are and what it is that makes their ideology so appealing to young people and. we know over eighty such ideologists in our republic and i want to emphasize that eight. special services are working with these ideologists we're talking to them also spiritual leaders

both already is including me and the council of chiefs are all working with them so they're not hiding anywhere and you know them you know they're not hiding what do you mean when you say special services are working with them to they use intimidation i mean crime prevention analyzing their teachings reading between the lines you see it's not like a person opens a school for terrorists and people come to him you know they just teach scripture them and people come to them for counseling or psychological help. but if you listen to what they see and we know that from our undercover agents there is nothing stream ist on the surface but we see that most of those who join terrorist curbs and became susa bombers were first instructed. by these ideologists. research of course it could be that not all of these the ideologists influence

people to sway them five or six of them could be ok but to all three of them definitely have this kind of influence with talking to any of these peoples personally now you yourself ever met any of these eight that we think you'll get. not only do i know them and i talk to each one of these eight. so you have a dialogue with people who basically recruit bandaids that. well we can say they recruited and it's you have to realize that extremism is heat in a deep in their teaching and they're all religious leaders right yes for the most part but we can only suspect that they police some part in instilling extremist atheists a person goes through several stages you see as a young boy become an extremist intimidation. and or religious convictions of these three things. so their religious ideology teaches staines in his words

strengthening the other two factors or intimidation and money. and that's why when we talk to those ideologists we ask them to change their math it's over teaching. and also to pay closer attention to their students. who are you going to this is. how do you view these ideologists for you as the head of the republic for are they enemies or just political opponents. they're not my enemies and they're not my political opponents they're just people who think they do their work and you do you respect them. well at least i can say i don't hate them but i have to admit i don't have much respect for them either but this just that we could have used. and matheson too harshly with them right but you preferred to be soft but i understand

the harsh methods one get us anywhere if we remove these people others will take their place the best ways to change them encourage them to teach differently or change their mindset. let them know that we're aware of what they're doing because when we just tell them that they teach you some they deny everything that we so instead we give them the numbers see eight i don't know you or ten students became bandits and it was made of a mystery of course until recently and even yesterday i think we were getting reports that the head of the terrorist underground though kumar of the boat who is only most wanted list who was hiding somewhere in europe public told me that this wasn't confirmed does this mean he has left in the shed here and the police couldn't catch him nor. what we know is that here rarely goes down into the valley he has camps somewhere up in the mountains on the border but. we know about some of

these camps but he was able to escape before we got to have a question for much and so for we don't have positive information that he's in our republic and it hasn't been confirmed but just yesterday we discussed this and it hasn't been confirmed yet it doesn't matter actually where exactly he is easier than it used to me or any way we often say so of course it would be better if he realised the gravity of his actions at least persuaded he's associates to turn themselves and go back to normal life it was even if he himself cannot do that. as a possible. while if it's some point he studied to become a criminal i mean he can also change his mind now. after all people do think about the afterlife or. only about this life here and now down through the forests says you know. and russia's southern republic. spotlight

will be back shortly after we take a break so stay with us we'll continue to in less than a minute. i .

lift . the official allocation. i pod touch from the. video. cheesemonger. feeds now in the palm of your. welcome back to spotlight and just a reminder that my guest in the studio today is eunice becky of course of head of

the russia's southern republic of. it's your second time on our show and just before our previous meeting which took place about fifteen months ago you fired your public strong minister. but the reason was corruption and poor economic results this time again just before this meeting you fire the prime minister. and in the cases where there was no prior indication that was coming to a quid i didn't see any reports saying that he didn't perform or he didn't cope with his job or that he had a conflict with you what was the reason for this decision. because first of all it had nothing to do with my coming to your show i do hope that t.v. has nothing to do with it otherwise i won't come here again well that's a joke of course there is a big difference between these tourism nations because the latest resignation happened for a much more pleasant reason alexi would argue for years my

a very good friend and colleague and he worked really hard he was a great help and the only reason for his resignation is that he's taking up another position so that was rather his. very soon an offer and we discussed it with him i think it is good to show understanding when you have to let someone go. is currently acting prime minister is your former finance minister right will he be offered to take up the pm post not necessarily that's because we are considering a few candidates now. can you please comment on another personnel decision i quote the english judicial qualification committee has disarmed deputy chairman of the supreme court. that would be mr though there go for it thanks. blaine's his resignation by claiming that you personally put pressure on him in other words he accuses you of meddling in judicial affairs that. comment on these accusations.

nor sort of quote first of all he's not the deputy chairman he's just a regular member of the republic supreme court second i don't have time to comment on such statements i have far more important things to do third i didn't hear him say i only saw that were reported on the internet fourth and this is the most important thing a judge who publicly criticized the head of the republic can no longer function as a judge he has no legal right to do this if he were to do this i think that this supreme court of the russian federation would have to address this because they have no right to criticise the head of the republic yet i didn't hear this either i just read it. all right is just something that some person wrote so i can a comment on this. and this is what's your general opinion on your republic's judicial system are you happy with it i know that only

a small number of cases result in a guilty verdict. and frankly i was not happy with it until recently and now we have a new chairman of the supreme court and i'm sure that the situation will improve for the main thing i was unhappy with was not corruption bribes or anything like that because it was too soft says hoagie for no that's not what i was unhappy with i was unhappy with the fact that judges good would disqualify themselves from a case if they thought it was too dangerous. and so it happened that all the judges in the republic would simply disqualify themselves if you so say twelve defendants who were found guilty and sentenced to long terms by the petty gore scored their all in do a show. minute crimes and their guilt was proven but i'm sure that had they been tried in english it would have received much shorter terms. i'm not saying that the

judges in this terrible region were biased all i'm saying is that english judges had no moral right to disqualify themselves. did they rescue themselves because they fear driven to what they claim that they feared for their lives when i told them look police officers too can get killed does this mean they shouldn't be doing their job or that i can get killed does this mean i should do nothing but. well if judges have concerns about their safety maybe it's not the fault of the judiciary perhaps is the fault of the law enforcement system. because the least can't ensure their safety. no it's not like that anymore if you think your job is not see fit or that your safety is not properly insured and you should resign and get another job . so good for nothing. if government officials all come up with

excuses and see they could get murdered so i can provide for you border guards for everyone to meet their wishes when you're a public even the president can get killed as your own experience indicates. but this didn't send us running and hiding right of course the border guards in an armored car and yet you barely survived regular. that have hundreds sent thousands of policemen who do their duty there standing all alone in the street and anyone can shoot them i have clerics you ma'am the local officials they all do their work we can't offer protection to judges alone most of the judges would recuse themselves but i'm sure it the new chairman of the supreme court who shares my views on the issue will improve the situation. not long ago you said quote. it is in desperate need for new qualified workers with fresh ideas with up to date

knowledge and training and capable to use cutting edge technology unquote this produced quite a stir and. some people fear that you're preparing for a major reshuffle of your staff. as that's true and you know it's not exactly like that though the let me put it this way. we do need a young blood but not in the top echelon. it seems to us after some analysis that we've done and there kmita lashon on which is actually the most important want to consist of people aged fifty or sixty or even seventy years. and quite often these older people are not quite open to new and daring ideas. so we thought it all over and we discussed did it and eventually we decided to refresh the middle ashqelon. there's

a lot more young people to prepare the next generation of writer more young people . also back in twenty ten i wrote told governors say ask them to put two or three local english residents on their staff. so now we have more than fifty young specialists working in a regional administrations all over the russian federation. so in two or three years we expect them to maybe come to our republic and there will come as experienced workers for the good. and there is good news according to all the reports industrial production your public has risen by ten or even twenty percent. which industries are developing here. you know. frankly we have no be

industrial enterprises which and we decided not to purchase technology from outside instead we use our local designers. we are now good at developing break production also quarry and food production which we might hear a little we don't have big factories are always small companies it was here with us and we still are in municipal administrations to purchase food products directly from those companies but this helps us avoid middlemen and high prices they're going to do it and eventually things moving people began to work better there with you know when i met with vladimir putin a year ago at the first think you said was that our industrial production was in decline. or that when i can tell you that this year alone thanks to the federal program we're going to launch it polymer production in

a revival but she factories. brickyard and another one. speaking of your meeting with wood and you said that it's the problem of unemployment remains very serious you said the task would be to decrease down employment rate by fifteen or twenty percent however so far it's been nearly four percent why is this something that puts investors off. and it's rather a question of our failure it seems to me to the plans that we had made with the an economic not all economic but also social. in terms of employment and considerable money was okayed it to levy attention on the labor market but there are still learning from our mistakes in taking advantage of the. facilities that we are going to launch with we hope to improve the situation connection with and secondly we are creating new jobs in healthcare and education alone we are

creating more than six hundred jobs by launching new facilities and we are planning to increase the number up to two thousand workers which by the end considering the programs for a living intention on the labor market in supporting individual and small business enterprise and taking into account the labor force that we had not considered earlier i mean some of the added taxation we are planning to bring this figure out to fifteen percent he says he was a situation where being a bandit will not be the best way to make money and in addition. you know this period if people become dad it's because of unemployment is not true not anymore it was false all along when we analyze our statistics we see that those who are arrested or killed or are in hiding and ninety percent had good jobs they have

received good education and they came from families that were far from poor so you can say that only poor or unemployed people become terrorists but what also the bennetts or what where each do but its mission spicy thank you thank you very much for being with us and just a reminder that my guest in the studio today was eunice becky of course a hero of the russian federation head of russia's southern republic of english and the third for now from all of us here we'll be back with more first then comment on what's going on in and i'll third russia until then stay on i t and take care. but it's a pleasure. good

. wealthy british style. is not out to. our. markets why not scandals.
