what how did you train. began the journey. where did it take. the. two thirty pm here in the russian capital you with odyssey brief summary now if i had lines and british activists mark us independence day with protests demanding the closure of an american scholarly base in england which is due to be part of a star wars type missile shield a concert it's a step towards a self-serving american and militarization of space. ten miles of border barriers are coming back custom checks now designed to tackle drug smuggling and if legal

immigration but it's angered e.u. colleagues who say violates the cornerstone of european unity. and the libyan officials say the arms embargo has been breached again as quote from qatar carrying weapons from the rebels are reportedly intercepted so far france is the only nation to admit supplying arms to antique that the forces. of the headlights are in r.t.r. next to us he discusses the missile shield plans that are driving a wedge between moscow and washington do stay with us. from what i understand russians are not against the interceptors they are against a more advanced and a more capable lives could you expand on that well we started the study a couple of months ago to look into the technical side of what might be behind russia's concerns so there's a tip in the west has been russia's ideologically opposed to middle missile defense

so that they're more concerned with the bases in poland and romania but we wanted to see if there is something besides that they feel perhaps poland and romania are in their spirit of influence but we wanted to see if there's actual technical concerns what we found is that the phase adaptive approach to missile defense is broken up into two parts number one and number two where the low potency interceptors the block one interceptors are on line and phases three and four where the higher speed interceptors will be brought online and our analysis shows if the system is reconfigured a little bit that it will have some ability against russian i.c.b.m. so there is some legitimate concern from from the russian side as to the technical ability and principle of a system being able to intercept russian i.c.b.m. in the report you argue that the u.s. doesn't really need the last two faces could you expand on that it's sort of a paradox because. even neither of the first phases nor the second phases would

really have an ability against rogue state i.c.b.m.'s anybody who can make a list of missiles can also put decoys on the missile to overcome the defenses you can put for instance inflatable balloons that appear to the radar sensors and to the imaging sensors on the intercept vehicle as warhead so you overwhelm the system so it's easy to defeat the system and we won't be getting anything extra by going to the higher potency interceptors a block to interest. which are due to come online after twenty eighteen so neither the first two phases nor the second two phases will have much inherent ability against the rogue state threat you make two very important points a that the effectiveness of the interceptors is arguable from a scientific point of view and b. that this could push the russians and possibly the chinese to try and restore some kind of balance by arming themselves more of these things that those arguments can be could be discarded by decision makers in washington well apparently they have

already. it's sort of a puzzle because the system itself has never actually been tested under realistic conditions you know for instance a solid core missiles that incorporate compromisers and decoys it's never really been tested against that the timing test has always been known to the intercept team so the intercept team knows exactly the trajectory that the missile is incoming on and they know the exact timing so of course in the case of north korea or iran that will not be the case furthermore most seriously perhaps most of the system is based on ships now these ships have never been tested in rough weather in fact when the usa one ninety three satellite was being intercepted a few years back it was called off for a couple of days because the weather was too rough for the cruisers so this is a known weakness in the system but you know from the planners side they have to see perhaps there will be some technological surprise in the future maybe they'll be

many more interceptors maybe they'll be a different administration so from the military planners in china and russia they have to pretend or plan for the worst pretend like the system works where is it can be easily overcome and has never been realistically tested the russians have been quite persistent in thinking is saying ok if it's not against us let's do it together and the response that they get is always a polite no play no you know they are told yes we will cooperate but not on equal terms. but he makes money i think it's and in some ways it's a natural response because. it's hard to get full cooperation when russia is not officially part of nato but i would say even both in the u.s. and in russia the people asking for four peroration before you do that the most important thing is to make sure the system works you know you don't want to cooperate on

something that can easily be defeated by iran or north korea it's important to understand that these intercepts of the missile occur in space so there's no air resistance there so you can spread out any kind of balloons shards of metal and all of these things travel with the warhead in space because there's no resistance so you're can deceive the defenses very simply so i would say before political people asking for cooperation go too far this should be a study on whether this system can in fact work in real combat conditions not in very rigged tests as it's been conducted today still you know you see in the report you touch upon a technical space for russia's concerns but from what i've been covering and from what i understand and more important on a freshness prostration over america's missile defense that seems a little say yes to play shame on its own terms and. do you think

that should be part of this question well surely it should be part of the discussion and it should but you know there's a priority first you get a system that works and then you cooperate on it so. i think there's a time for cooperation but before that perhaps we can get maybe make it work together you know yeah exactly we could get the technical people in russia together with the technical people in the us and we can all grain storm on ideas but but that's not happening so. you know there's various people have proposed different systems that might work. for my team my colleague has proposed a drone base system so you'd have drones circling around north korea for instance and this would be a threat to russia of course because it's located around north korea and when they see their missiles being launched they were captured before it releases this war headed space then they could home in on the hot exhaust coming out of the you know

boosting missile it's called the boost phase difference but apparently it's not been picked up by the pentagon and it's not being studied by anybody else so i think we need to get the technical people to cooperate once the good system is there then we can get the political people perhaps to cooperate so there is an opinion that there is this. mentality that flourished under the bush administration pushing for more defense spending and many say it continues on the. eastern front a costly missile defense program arguable effectiveness could be pushed forward by this kind of hawkish mentality rather than going security threats. i mean surely there is inertia in the system when the bush plan was first discarded by president obama when he came into power there was a lot of hope that the new system would be more agreeable to the russians but now

that we have actual numbers if you look at the congressional research service reports it would be four hundred forty interceptors based on forty three ships now these are mobile platforms and that is part of the problem so instead of being less of a concern going from the bush administration to the obama administration the. this has raised all sorts of red flags in russia the new system there's something interesting i've read. the house defense fail and it finds unmandated ministration to the. a study on the technical and operational feasibility of space based interceptors that's from one of the papers here space based interceptors that sounds an awful lot like reagan's. plans to the american physical society conclude it was a hoax but nonetheless billions of dollars were spent on research he thinks that the current myself offense program will also could turn into a hole where money goes on disappears despite what the scientists are saying well

space based defense has been proven to be not a feasible idea because you would need so many interceptors and these would be in orbit now people have an idea that things are stationary in orbit they're not in low earth orbit they're moving very fast so they're not over any one region for very long the consequence of that is that you need many many many interceptors and for instance you can create a hole in the defenses by just shooting a prior missile to get the local interceptors to intercept one and then you have for the future you have a big hole in your defense that you can. then you can use to send a missile through so scientists know that why are they spending money on it i think as far as i know there's not actually money being spent right now on developing it but there is a defense to lotteries that they're studying the concept they're not actually

building it as far as i know at the moment but it's definitely proven proven to be a feasible idea and it's not just the american physical society various x. officers technical officers of the air force u.s. air force have also looked into it and shown that it's overly expensive and it's very easy to defeat again. in the. wealthy british style sign. on the front of the. market finance scandal. find out what's really happening to the global economy

a fourth time in a row in the moscow region side of one of the tournament every since it again. takes up the story. the rugby sevens european champions cup was four years old the same two teams had four out the last three finals both of them russian the cup holders few people here would be their competitors from the self twenty ten domestic champions you chris number these time around they came across each other in the sammis but that didn't affect the outcome. maybe but moscow where will quick to break their luck scoring a couple of tries early in the game the russian national team skipper dmitri bit off hitting him no one here to give the most caribbean side if they get in the advantage the game was completely dominated by put my school here only let their opponents produce a single try setting the final score of twenty two for the second semifinal so

another russian team empiria place later shared were presenting france with both sides giving their all to when it was imperial finally belted out to the final better said earn their share of owners after beating your prisoner and claiming third place the i am this how it came to the old russian decider was sung watching and others just learning the sport on their months knees and once again maybe the a promptly showed they had no equal in the tournament the first troy scored by alexi and believe was converted into seven points by me to put off bowling a couple more twice in conversions the cup holders ducasse stunning twenty two and nothing lead it seemed over what imperius used to give up proving rugby is always about fighting to the end. and sometimes they're expense of

injuring your opponent although goodness korea was keen to stick you know and won with a final score twenty eight twenty one stayed the only big tour of the european champions cup has ever seen so for an undisputedly the best club russia has to offer my god but those like i need to give a lot of credit to our opponents they look great throughout the entire tournament and gave their all in the foreigners but it's no secret that dva put most of your is not free flowing for the national team and we've got more international experience to go on it will be great for the tournament to have teams from england in other countries where rugby is one of the most popular sports that most of those who took part in the event are very tough opponents or thought an impressive achievement by russia's top club which is no a four time european champions cup winner although some tougher competition for the trophy is just a matter of time and new teams are in talks to join next year we're going on
