mounting international pressure. and fresh protests on a massive scale is expected in greece following sunday's rally against a second round of austerity measures that even demands new cuts before the country can receive over one hundred billion euros in bailout money. next artie's exclusive interview brings you a firsthand perspective on a new foreign policy. you know you want to rush through regime change has gripped libya and the arab spring has transformed europe's new were brought he use foreign policy faces challenges as perhaps never before to talk more on these challenges we are joined by the high representative for foreign affairs and security policy in the european union catherine ashton helen thank you very much mr ashley use of the chorus of what you're doing media is to resolve conflict why was the e.u.

north asked to mediate in libya well i think the u.n. is playing exactly the role that it should play and leave the un special envoy is you know frequently in tripoli and girls he is working with the people of libya but also for the international partners our role has been very much to support him and to work with the african union with the arab league with the organization islamic conference and with our partners like russia and turkey to think about how we move forward and conflict and start to think about the country of the future on a visit of in gaza in may you said that you had not people who would be leading into the future what gives you the grounds of saying that what i said was that people who clearly had at their heart the future of libya people who were thinking about the kind of work that needs to be done reconstruction getting the economy moving again the support they're going to be on board of management reform of the

police. to be people who will be part of that big dialogue that used to take place what the new government of libya looks like it's for the people of libya to decide but here are people who despite all of the troubles despite the difficulties are really trying to think through our tribute to them for doing that in the last twenty four hours reports have emerged out of gadhafi boys have been seeking an exit from libya for several weeks now is that. more information also well there are a number of different rumors stories and search and they've been discussions about the possibility that gadhafi could go but it's an if it's a large if and one of the big challenges and questions is how to make sure that for the people of libya the way in which it goes on the assuredness of that departure is a fundamental part of moving forward and that's for them to decide in conjunction as i said with the role of the u.n.

special and at what stage will be you expect nato to cease fire in libya well nato has been in discussion of course about its future role and i was up nato this week to discuss the role of the european union in our humanitarian aid in our support for the people on the ground and in opening the office which i did recently in. the role of the forces of nature is determined by the security council resolution and their job is to protect civilians so until there is a clear determination evidence the civilians are safe they will have to stay there and that's again tied up to what happens with colonel gadhafi and his decision to allow his country to move forward in the way that clearly people want the european council set the russian presidential medicaid or to libya is a focal point for a political transition there what status does the e.u. court mr maher gallus went well what we've been saying to president medvedev and

from his son after office is important that russia is able to play its part in trying to find a solution so the role of the mediator from russia is to work alongside others who are busy trying to find a way through i think very significant elements of this is making sure that that's also linked back to the u.n. so we have the confidence in our communications between different people but it's very good to see russia engage it's very good to see it being. trying to help to get as you said you consider an age for to live together as an in appropriate response to the plight of the people there want to ease and appropriate response in your opinion very consistent in saying what needs to happen is that the israelis need to open the borders for girls there and the love of people and goods to live freely now i recognize the importance of the security situation for israel we've always done that but it seems to me a position that's not tenable you have the inability to get the economy moving. on

one of the things i've been saying to the israelis for some time is it's in their interest to see economic growth and development dollars are not small businesses you know that could really do well and lots of people who want jobs and center people in gaza receive food so many young people who don't have a future and talked of the answer to the hard part of making sure that we have security is given a lot future and that means allowing in and out the products the goods where girls are could actually sell and support its own economy but the israeli settlement building continues in the west bank despite because it should not the european union what more can be done well we're concerned about that we've always said that settlements are illegal under international law we've made that clear we do believe that we have to try to get part. of the course hatching which russia has a big part of the hope of a meeting soon to try and lay some of the groundwork that would enable the parties come to come back to talks because in the end that's going to be the solution mr

ashton you were in belgrade when. he was arrested and shortly before that you announced and extra billion euro was available for partners under the neighborhood policy what medical incidents you were in belgrade when i was arrested yes it was a coincidence i had the privilege of talking with. the president and with the deputy prime minister and those engaged in the actual. although i never doubted the president was very keen to try and find a lot it should be seen just as. i think that the expectation they were finding not particular day was not it was not there it was good to be that it was good to be able to congratulate the serval torches and see how people reacted to that across the world of being a real indication of closure but also saying that no matter how long it takes

justice will be done the palm trees some real be council of europe pasta reports finding the course among leadership is a mafia involved in or going to harvesting what you propose to ensure that justice is done in kosovo well you know i went from belgrade to pristina and i met with prime minister touchy and what we've been clear about is that if allegations are made they must be answered it's in the interests of everyone to get the troops and to make sure again that justice is nothing both directions of publications are not real they need to be seen to be so so we hope that we will see an investigation very soon that will determine the truth of this and if need be will bring people to justice now every european foreign policy change and you have shared nuclear talks with iran twice do you believe that iran is building a nuclear program well the indications from the program that they have that they are building towards what they have three thousand four hundred kilograms of low

enriched uranium which doesn't have much purpose if you're not going to use it in the way they say they're not the proof of it is very simple if the international atomic energy authority inspectors are allowed to go in and to do their job properly they can tell us a chance but iran does not comply with that and that of course leads to the suspicions just fear not facts dictate policy. towards the wrong. i think the fear that people have is based on the facts and the fact that iran does not comply properly with inspectors that there is a lot of evidence of what they're doing. feelings to people wanting to make sure that we put the pressure on to resolve it so it's not one of the other it's the facts lead us to have genuine concern what do last iran do to silence doubts about it sometimes. made this very clear to them in the days of talks that if what

they're saying is true then they can prove it i think improves in a way that does nothing other than credit to them if they don't do that then we have to think about the pressure i described like this if you sign up to an agreement which they have. we have many countries then you become the guardians of the two three and if those who sign up to it fail to provide you have a responsibility to. act together and that's why the twin track approach of keeping the pressure on of taking sanctions being very clear that those sanctions are designed to make the regime realize that the international community believes they have a responsibility and then to link it to the dialogue which we hope will resolve these very practical way those two those two approaches sorry sensual need to work together and i really do hope that iran will take seriously what we've put on the table and come to the top. thank you for taking time for this interview we

seven minutes i was counting down and they just took too long you know my hands are freezing i couldn't you know break probably i couldn't understand what great pressure i had and i see it was very very difficult conditions it was a disappointing weekend for russian pentathlete and the in picture and he was the year he finished eighth at the inaugural kremmling cup which was won by chair of a border but there were reasons for the russian taint to be happy as long now reports. russian men have planted suppose about when it comes to the bacon south lawn events starting with the sydney two thousand games the country is yet to relinquish the summit's of the podium and they will be hoping for gold number three of the upcoming games in london but the next generation is already breathing down his neck at eighteen years of age he should gar of his already making waves for the national team the youngster who made his senior dead view at this the first ever

crammed in cup one the fencing event and followed up with a great performance both in the pool and in the show jumping arena and that elevated him to fourth overall before the combine the running and shooting events where he encountered some difficulty with a newly introduced laser gun finishing in one walks up on alice i like it here with the cd is in love everything today except for the shooting i just can't get it right but i want the flames and told them in today and that's great. since i'm going to take champion and they finished in eighth place and that poor result could be attributed to a recent rule change that so air pistols are replaced with laser guns plus running and shooting events have been combined into one make it look more like a summer biathlon adjusting sake some time for the champ but that's one hundred ten a world championship runner up alexander list soon looks set to dominate in the near future the russian taking second place and the silver in the kremlin cup but.

despite this i could place i'm very happy with my performance because he's the real star of the combined event i have to beat that one prepared as well as the other athletes because i mean completion the european championships and you see with heads. so let's recap check david swoboda the winner of the first ever coming cup russia's alexandre listen in second with third and fourth place is going the way of the hungaroring athletes the london olympics are just a year away and that means. nations wanting to qualify will have to work toward right now some will be able to get the coveted licenses for that's what it's called games at the upcoming european championships remark koester of r.c. moscow. now moscow's luzhniki stadium will undergo a revamp next year ahead of hosting the world athletics championships in two thousand and thirteen and to help designers work out what is needed some of russia's best sportsmen and women completed there at the weekend they were taking part in the annual moscow challenge cup the men's four hundred meters alexia on the

show he got bronze in the men's relay at the beijing games and clocked a winning time of forty five point seven three seconds while the women's high jump was won by start on a scholar who leapt at ninety five centimeters not earth shattering but the main aim of the event was to help design just decide what would be the gun for improve the track the last major athletics event to be healthier was the back in one thousand eight hundred. now let's switch to golf where there's a new winner on the p.g.a. tour harrison fraser taking the st jude classic affably to margaret carlson in a play off carson did start the day with one shot lead but it was nip and tuck between him and fraser and carson had to save par here on the last hole to make sure it went above. and they needed three extra holes to settle it fraser topping him for par here. and that meant carson had to see his final effort to send it to another hole but he missed and in phrasing his first title in three hundred fifty

five attempts in the biggest winners check. just over a million dollars. but of course whether or not i could play it's going to question whether or not i want to make sacrifices that you have to make and in the last three or four weeks over have really buttoned down and worked hard and found the right balance in my game and was able to spend some time with the kids and. try to get things right so i came here clean minded and fresh. and then also optimistic after the way i played it and also learned of the u.s. open call of there's a new window on the european tour to england's robert rock has one and he had a team stroke lead going into the final round will be on call some cut back to one on the final day but rock carded a five under par sixty seven to finish on top of the leaderboard at twenty one under and it was just enough to give him his first ever try for the top of the thirty four year old who got wind of this in over two hundred twenty eight. and
