beasts in which bryson if you never sung from one stupid. stunts on t.v. don't come. welcome back here with r.t. and live from moscow is a holiday in the week's top stories and the former general denies charges of genocide in front of the hague tribunal claiming that he was just defending his own people so be it finds that handing him over has done little to speed up the e.u. membership it had hoped for. nato has extended its military campaign in libya deployed attack choppers there for the first time it has sparked concerns that the alliance is preparing a ground operation in the country. plus the spread of

a deadly e. coli outbreak in europe and all to syria it's claimed at least nineteen months mostly in germany and crippled european food markets false accusations that spain was the original source of the contamination has hit its fruit and vegetable exports and piled further pressure on its struggling economy. feels like natural disasters are getting more ferocious and more frequent so to say it can be almost impossible to predict deadly tsunamis flood so wildfires but up next here on out see a prominent russian oceanographer tells us how people can try and reduce the risks . mr cultural thank you very much for speaking so awesome artsy today at the ghetto moscow state university you're working in a five million dollars project to establish that some nonessential in my school can you please explain how this project works at the. moratorium for the

assessment of financial risk ripples was that it was through we use existing high level scientific instrumentation models to look at. what happens in nature to see storm surge of the waves you know in the engine but the new thing is that we try to estimate how loud the risk years which affects the infrastructure people and that is using the existing high level. expertise and packaging into a new direction towards a new student up of the local population for instance so the question for the general society will last. at the progress has been very good we started because we didn't have so much investments at that time but i knew most of the people and so we could. do a lot of experimental computer runs on the big computers

a little girl some women also used but now we wait for our computer system arrive to go into the protection rods progress has been great the opportunity to work with most gold rush has been affected still objects i think and i think from talking to my partners to my colleagues over the last days from the other grounds that we all take on the challenge and just think about it and we'd like from continuous fast as possible what are the possible up locations of this project that you're working on. perhaps help in the future forecast or even prevents natural disasters and here we look at what the russian coastal zone which ranges from the permafrost for far north and to the more months who's going to. work with us and winterize in this at sea and storm surges through the black sea to the caspian sea through the us or see where you have to front. extreme events possible. and if

they are they will all affect the coastline because peru that's where people live where the ports are where the railroads are the roads are tourism this developing and here is the direct assessment how. and when will this happening how large will the be and how much will be the damage so in planning for the governments or the authorities you can advise them how much the protection how much the preparation needs to be and what about what happened in russia last summer we witnessed a number of wildfires that took lives of dozens of people i do you see that coming well that's something we do not want to address right now but it with the evidence was that it was much for a long time much too dry the winter was not rainy enough the use of water was very strong usually is a lot of people need a lot of fresh water and then of course you have this primitive area so. the

conditions were bad already after the late winter early spring and when that some fire started to go out of hand and that's one of the dangers which were this risk assessment comes in. how much do we need to be prepared in time for our opinion and they're not last summer. five years ago. to minimize the risk to minimize the damage can't predict what's going to happen in the summer watching that i'm not an expert but i'm very much the ministry of it is us the management mr minister should go there all prepared to philosophy try to bring into this is it's not only important to react. but to act before things happen and that's something new also you would like to introduce into russia and and then minimize

the damage and the reaction of the people that the fire brigades i think ike's and the old available but it's better not to call the fire brigade the consistent fire service that's based on simply delicious can help predict forecasts that run to mean she was a no no i don't think you can for cross tsunamis and come not because you come up for costs. if that will ever happen it will be a great benefit to society i don't think anybody of us will see that because of the physical the physical off the phenomenon tsunamis our way along the ocean waves that may be generated with critics and that the art is true and it's possible to predict their arrival once we know there's it's generated which not always happens and the picture path and that's why not me on the eleventh of march was a disaster which everybody thought about for forty years was just might be in

a different region from the preparation and not enough it's a wonderful example the preparation must be all the assessment must be very thorough and the possibilities of error must be in context must be taken into account and then the preparation this early but fos enough because certain certainly may be the facts in fact the situation is getting worse and worse and many joke about so that you thousand and twelve scenarios what is your view is really getting worse this world is so beautiful there will be a man and we might damage it i think that the perception of increasing disasters including that is increasing the cuts catastrophes has to do with news coverage global news coverage and something happens that will be on the old solution screens if you. for example earthquakes for a long time you see in this highly seismic zone which are well known there's always

a flicker around and sometimes it's in the south pacific sometimes in the mediterranean south of the caribbean so this will happen everywhere and everywhere and people in the region know all this now the problem is that a lot of people come into this regions has to work in the tourism industry which are strange to the phenomena in the region and they're of course not excited but also shocked so the people that lived in the region for a long time the old fisherman knew about the dangers of the sea the new coal still habitants one of the flat overlooking the sea don't know anything and are shopped at risk of danger how do you think the climate change is connected with natural disasters i wouldn't call it connects and climate change effects are for an out of the killer case and sea level the storminess the storm patterns the precipitation

patterns and that's one reason why we in our project in the military also look at the effects with keeping in mind the climate change scenarios what will be the final twenty or thirty years and one what then will change in the extreme events that their relation is there will always be extreme events the extreme events and pattern where and when and how much will change this is important to know which we try to understand and that is changing under climate change conditions the other effect of climate i think the impact of climate changes will cause and the number of people in the growth of the population the spend on livelihoods in the coastal zone which might be changing over twenty thirty years because of different reasons how your project is going constantly there are some expressions we are very much for coast. i'd see. dr king for scientific reasons because of the permafrost reason region which is changing on the climate change

those have to be making special efforts to understand what's happening now and what happened in the past and then using computer models what will be the likelihood of extreme events in the near future and on the climate change and others so there is a direct effect that we will still have to connect with industry connect with the ministries to offer first results how do you present the results on the research just in their thirty's and what response to get from a very very much aware of the general problems and off the impact changes in the natural systems might have on their plans their political conditions the communication needs to be strengthened because we at the moment talk different languages i cannot talk with pollution with numbers in thirty years' time because

it's far away from him and we have to learn to understand what the real core of the agencies or the politicians or the ministries are so we can. communicate effectively and easily what is your message to the russian president is that you are looking into that you are certain it is a great opportunity first of all it's a great opportunity to say thank you. to having picked this by the russian government of the russian federation having picked this venue off outside bringing their expertise and a lot of. experience into this scheme in the form of orators then trying to connect with the international community to raise the scientific standards the competitiveness of the russian science and then of course it's going to be proved it. from the president how we did what it's all want

and also mention what all the problems are because it's very definite the problem is no you cannot transition this far from the last summit from this summit in the universities in the ministers at every level there are people that need to convinced to move russia has the same problem as all the countries are also there because the big part of the russian problem is that russia is so huge to face problems on the coasts to clean up the face problems in the cold you face problems in the warm black sea and you face problems in the. snow everything so you have a little bit of everything everywhere. and then the communication and then i think also very important is competitive for these austin's. regional ownership so if something happens in the far east or siberia i have sometimes the impression is very far away for most go and that sense it's thought of all if you creational

charge to make sure that these things happen in the region but affect a notch community to extend and to not know bordeaux's which is in the case off in our case to get data from other countries in the case of a response to the us to participate in that and the other countries help or as russia to japan to help so this is things that need to be done and i think i'm quite sure the well take a take will import thanks very much for its time. in one thousand nine hundred two dr ralph been straight university of pennsylvania said what if i can take the gene responsible for growth in human beings and. put it into a mouse. gone all the main risk issues

caused it to. ninety five percent of all competent scientists in these fields are working for to produce a site and only five percent. read genuinely independent. there is not a lot of science that says train genic fish is unhealthy for people to consume which is what the food and drug administration looks at there is a lot of concern about the environmental impacts if the transgenic fish escapes what kind of horrible impact will it have on the rest of the fish population you don't know what this might do to us or our children or our children's children in our congress here in the united states or our legislatures throughout the world we vote all these different laws tax laws and corporate laws what could be more important than deciding on the permanent genetic future of life on earth.

fixed for. fish fish. fish. week's top stories here on our team and former general ratko lavish denies charges of genocide in front of the hague tribunal claiming that he was just defending his people meanwhile serbia finds that handing him over has done little to speed up the e.u. membership that have. now so has expanded its military campaign in libya and deployed attack helicopters there for the first time this is sparked concerns that the alliance is repairing a ground operation in the country. plus the spread of a deadly e. coli outbreak in europe randolph's hysteria it's claimed at least one thousand lives mostly in germany and crippled european food markets full stop you say shows

that spain was the original source of the contamination has had the fruit and vegetable exports rather hard it's also work piled up further pressure on a struggling economy. and those are the headlines of today and over this week you are watching weekly but for now it's the sports with. thank you for joining me for this course on french open final day and these are the headlines six of the best rafael nadal goes for a record equalling six french open title he takes on arch rival roger federer in paris. while patrick hero among public shango hits three as russia come back to beat armenia three one in the european qualifiers. and when you walk all england's come from two goals down to scrape or two to draw against switzerland it still top bridgie. to his first i want the biggest rivalries of the open era is about to

way back the sturdy italian took the next three games to prepare herself into a second set lead however the sec what would serve after that and schiavone completely crumbled in the time great seating it turned out and so the match now ali. fell flat on her back to celebrate its historic victory and new status a national heroine twenty nine year old ranked number four lives on on monday says the sport can expect more from china in the future. i mean of course after first chinese players were in the grandstand i mean did improve for china fans also . think maybe china now likes within their many top one pair going up but i still believe china there is a were getting bigger and bigger and should play a really high level. for. player one she was playing

every intention of continuing their winning streak in the european qualifier against arena. however the visitors promptly showed it wouldn't be in this a task just a few minutes in the euro much the elegant it broke through the home side the fans but failed to find the net despite the passionate supporters of the twenty two thousand and put out to the house a wild wake up in create their first goal scoring opportunities although those chances for we said. it was a media hope opened up to twenty five minutes marcus did sell the netting here to first gold rush had ever conceded on the petrosky peach. however the visitors lead a loss of less than sixty seconds per month religion to finishing his teammates efforts in style to make it one one however this wouldn't be enough to satisfy the

hosts and desperately needed their first win of the year and working to finish the job in the second half and it was the unmarked of him striker who gave russian elite joining a good scene shows elegant looks into gold to one even getting to the highland there is her fused to give up but bullish in the was destined to become the hero of the day after a seventy two minutes chelsea wingert usually go for it was over in the visitors books and public agenda clinic. the rest he's had trick from the palace what the country one year was the final score to get in is a golden rules we didn't expect them to open the score but they have a distant dream and scored a counter-attack i think it was for the better for us as we fought back learning more though media have many young physically strong players and we desperately needed this when we're talking the group and we just had to in these communities.

russia is a strong side they are on top of the group and still favorites to qualify for a spot they want today which means they were better three boys all points russia were no heading to austria she does themselves in a friendly against cameroon. over r t c in this board. and that result means russia stay in contention at the top of group a gap because they did briefly talk a great part of their victory but they were leapfrog by the republic of ireland he won tonight in macedonia later here also kept up their qualification ambitions by beating on durant one nil so this is how the table looks to score games left ireland are at the summit only on goal scored head of russia and then slovakia. thirteen points this armenia followed by macedonia and dora yet to get off the mark only the top teams from each group a guaranteed place in the finals along with the best runner up overall then the rest of the teams finishing second place and the playoffs. meanwhile england's play

baseball garia and with a more aggressive it's foggles to convert their chances before that amir gel of each left were to volley the opening eight minutes after the restart but the hosts let their lead slip evil in part of the design it crossed into an equaliser thirty minutes later i'll go of salvaging a one one draw which will montenegro stay second. and it's greece the top group ever after a three one win over malta there a point above croatia twelve points along with israel we love the year two one. and this a three way tie at the top of group h. portugal beat norway one no which means both teams are on ten points along with denmark they want to know in iceland. and emotion g.b. former champion casey stone has clinched his second win in a row following his triumph at the castle i'm grown prix the australian heaping pressure on reigning world champion jorge lorenzo who came in second however this
