terrorism those who understand fully that you have to live their. life stories from . nineteen from. welcome back here's a recap of your top stories on our t.v. moscow rejects a u.n. resolution against syria warning it could be a prelude to what aggressive libya style intervention but the u.k. and france are committed to putting more pressure on the vastness and response to its crackdown on protesters its. nato challenges its numbers to be more active in the aerial bombardment of colonel gadhafi forces russia which is trying to mediate a cease fire between the libyan leader and the rebels says both sides want
2:31 pm
a vote on a military way out. earlier nato secretary general anders fogh rasmussen i spoke to my colleague a nice about way up next is that interview in full where he had cysts the alliance has no plans to act in syria and defends the actions being taken in libya. thank you very much for joining us here on r t it's much appreciated i want to get straight to our first question the u.k. and france want a u.n. security council resolution condemning the syrian government in your opinion are we heading for libya two point zero here you know i would like to stress nato has no intention whatsoever to intervene in syria at the same time lots of critics expect that that could be the case if we see a resolution russell saying that the fact that it's even being debated is going to
2:32 pm
cause more violence in syria. there might be some kind of intervention do you think not if the u.n. goes head and goes ahead rather and approves that resolution once again let me stress that we have no intention to intervene in syria having said that it's sheer international condemnation of the brutal attacks against the civilian population in syria the only way forward is to accommodate. the aspirations of the syrian people let's look at the lack of an entry strategy into libya it could be said that you were drams into this rushing to regime change have you accidently gone to war in libya definitely not on the contrary we considered this a very carefully we laid out certain conditions that should be fulfilled before we took action and the decisive factor was that the united nations are exact
2:33 pm
wrong correct me if i'm wrong but obviously the u.n. resolution was laid out for a no fly zone and lots of people would consider what's happening in libya to be much more than a no fly zone actually the u.n. security council resolution goes beyond a no fly zone according to the u.n. security council resolution we are mandated to. protect the civilian population in libya taking all necessary measures and that's exactly what we're doing right now all the necessary measures if i might speak of what our admiral pollo has legitimate strikes on any command center in libya i just want to clarify for some of our viewers who have seen homes gone they've seen civilian buildings blown to pieces because. in a car on a phone or in a hospital on a phone constitute a command center for your purposes when you say any means. i would like to stress that we are not targeting individuals we hate intimate military.
2:34 pm
targets. and of course common control centers can be used to plan and organize attacks against civilians show amount of control and to commit military targets that's what i'd like to read a question to you that was written to us by one of our viewers on facebook. who's from paris france wants to know why nato is bombing metropolitan areas in libya and civilians are being killed what do you say to. we do all we can to avoid civilian casualties we are in libya to protect civilians against attacks and this is the reason why our commanders are very very careful in identifying legitimate military targets but the t.s.a. has to mediate in libya they sent an envoy and as mikhail margelov arrived
2:35 pm
intensified bombing of libya began why is that. there's no link between the two events we appreciate all attempts to find a political solution to the crisis in libya because obviously there is no military solution so really we need a political process having said that i still think that it's a strong military pressure on that after the regime will facilitate a fruitful political process mr mcc.l.o.y. yesterday in fact stated and you just mentioning that that that the military conflict doesn't have to be there means that it could be resolved peacefully he's stating that he believes that the rebels and the regime forces are ready to negotiate but they both think that war is not the way out of this conflict so why are you still bombing libya with this information coming from the russian envoy that both sides are are ready to talk. we are continuing our regime because we
2:36 pm
still see the gadhafi regime attacking each own population and it's absolutely outrageous and the u.n. has mandated an operation to protect civilians and we will continue our operation as long as the regime still attacks on people you know without russian defense minister sort of call it yesterday and he believes that troops on the ground in libya are now a possibility do you think there will be troops under your command in the future. we have no intention to pull troops on the ground in libya what if gadhafi doesn't back down. well i do believe that the combination of a strong military pressure and reinforced political pressure will eventually lead to the collapse of the regime he may happen tomorrow it may take some weeks but we would stay committed until we have fulfilled three very clear military objectives
2:37 pm
firstly a complete end to all attacks against civilians secondly withdrawal of gadhafi military forces and paramilitary forces to their parents and certainly immediate and on hindered humanitarian access to people in need we will continue our gratian until these are met. talk of of post-war libya seems premature doesn't it given william hague and hence seeing standing that nato as he sees it will be there until after christmas this of course are all despite a ninety day deadline when do you think you'll leave the libyan people at peace. well i'm not going to guess about any time frame. what i can say is that we are prepared to stay committed as long as it takes to fully implement the u.n.
2:38 pm
mandate and that is to protect the civilian population against any attack one of the civilians that are being attacked in syria in yemen in bahrain. yeah of course left that's a legitimate question the differences in libya we are operating on the basis of a u.n. mandate and with strong support from contras in that we can actually and number of countries in the region contribute actively to operations for these reasons we are in libya. what do you say to critics who aren't convinced that nato is and goal is to protect civilians and that in fact is a regime change. we have been very open about our military objectives. to compete in attacks against civilians withdrawal of gadhafi forces and humanitarian access these are our military objectives and we will continue on
2:39 pm
until they are met. in parallel there is a political track if you find for i the international community. recently a group including the russian president called on get afy to leave power. and. these two tracks are separate a military track and a political track but having said that i think it's hard to imagine a complete end to attacks against civilians in libya as long as gadhafi remains in power i'd like to move on to missile defense in europe if i may defense minister surgical also said yesterday that he has been largely ignored by you in your plans for a.m.d. over europe of course you wouldn't accept that but the facts they certainly at this stage speak for themselves don't they. no russia is definitely not ignored on the contrary we have invited russia to cooperate on defense the
2:40 pm
fact is that nato has decided to develop a nature based missile defense system because we want to protect our populations against. some who but we would like to cooperate with the russians are standing up we are faced with who from russia. we are faced with a common threat and this is the reason why we would like to see two independent missile defense systems a russian system and a nato system cooperate for instance by exchanging data the whole system would become much more effective that way for the benefit of the russian population and population nato countries you do understand that a thousand a little bit of a contradiction there you talk about joint trust about a mutual threat and then about separate systems why want one system between nato and russia be acceptable to protect both sides from any kind of threat because i
2:41 pm
don't think at the end of the day. the russian government and the russian people would accept to be sharp to a common command. i think. the russian nation has such would insist on having control over her own missile defense system and this is the reason why the most realistic approach would be to have two independent systems part with a common purpose but a common purpose is protection of all our population is now mr rasmussen has been proposing a joint european defense system which is. and i think the best way to join efforts would be to relay to independent systems cooperate with the aim to protect the russian people as well as people in nato conference. constantly claims that nato can't guarantee. that its interests will be protected
2:42 pm
why can't these guarantees. the best guarantee whatsoever would be to engage in close cooperation because close cooperation between russia and nato would clearly demonstrate that our missile defense is really a defense and it's not aimed at russia. let's face it. we do not consider russia threats to nato and nato does not constitute a threat to russia so let's join efforts let us cooperate for us to seize it our as they can't go forward on promises why put new baronetcy russia on paper that a missile defense system would not be directed towards them. you have a very easy to guarantee it because we do not we don't have any intention to attack russia not whatsoever but to the best care and russia could get it would be
2:43 pm
to engage in a close cooperation and for instance establish a common joint center where we could exchange data that would clearly demonstrates that this system is not aimed at russia. mr rasmussen the facts might demonstrate otherwise thank you very much for taking the time out to be allied with us from brussels it's very much appreciated hope to see you again. in one thousand nine hundred two dr ralph brin 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 . is that ninety five percent of all competent scientists in these
