a statement came from russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov who is now this is going to the u.s. . and the eurozone economic crisis deepens as arlen's debt is downgraded to junk that's fueling fears the country may need a second bailout this comes a shortly after a similar predictions were made about portugal with italy also tipped to be at risk . are those are the headlines here not see but next we asked the man in charge of the anti drug effort in russia how the country is tackling the flow of illegal substances from central asia and europe you watching arts. the problem of drugs and drug trafficking seems to not go anywhere no matter how much we fight it until they were the head of russia's federal drug control service . to talk about the details of his fight and the problems that.

and trying to buy drugs on the global scale. thank you very much for joining us today according to officials that more than seven thousand people have died in russia from drug related causes since the beginning of the here at the same time there are others who are that number is actually more than one hundred thousand and that is actually current why is there such a huge difference in the numbers. you see the figure of seven thousand. people who actually died from poisoning that is they took such huge doses that their organs failed most drug users however die from overdosing they knew how to measure it goes is the reason for most drug related deaths is internal organ failure due to regular consumption do you think it's time for russia to implement some sort of. drug. we have proposed a bill to distinguish between levels of crime which is being upheld by the

government individuals selling large quantities of drugs for more severe punishment all the way up to a life sentence for people not involved in large drug related crimes will consider alternative action which may mean offering them the option of taking a therapy course instead of punishment according to. our wall here and that ends up in russia is being apprehended by authorities what is the problem why do we why do we start. to drug users. these. figures are in fact common for the whole world i mean police all over the world be it europe or america only managed to confiscate around ten percent of illegally traded drugs within their countries another thing is the extremely low efficiency of our borders and their administrative and legal methods lead to the only not point two percent of all drugs are intercepted at the borders drugs that get into

russia first have to go through the states of central asia where they're not intercepted those states themselves above all are victims of afghanistan's enormous drug production. as a matter of fact afghanistan itself is the victim of global drug method of work which creates the demand and the political will to continue production in the country. this is why countries next to stan have the greatest density of drug flow simply because they are closer to the epicenter further away the drug flows into lots of different channels and then drugs get to russia for example through a seven thousand kilometer border with. drugs. over eighty percent of all synthetic substances that are illegally traded in russia originate in europe mostly the netherlands where most amphetamine based drugs are manufactured poland the baltic states germany bulgaria and many other countries with underground drug labs labs and cells are small but there are many of them and

the substances they produce find their way to rush of through various channels speaking of the amounts that we intercept and confiscate it's nearly half a ton of synthetic substances every year mostly these are methamphetamine. l.s.d. ecstasy and other similar drugs. but also their parents as well. testing people on mass would be far too radical no of course not we're talking about establishing an early warning system to detect drug addicts and abusers after all people are not born addicted to drugs it all starts with experimenting mostly in teenage years when kids start spending more time on the streets away from their parents that's when they get to know drugs this needs to be detected at an early stage and if parents are warned in advance sometimes it just takes parental action and advice to put an end to these dangerous practices if not stopped in time these experiments later lead to regular

consumption which in turn requires longer and more costly treatment. you. know we're not talking about force treatment here any forcing of treatment is a. of the person. the drug users decision for themselves in our country drug abuse is subject to administrative liability and punishment by paying a fine on average six hundred rubles punished and then they're released so our society seems to hope the drug users will somehow realize that they require treatment for this addiction. but they won't because their mind is blurred by chemical and diction of psychoactive substances. therefore a legal system should be created to push them towards having treatment and as i've said this is what we call alternative responsibility this is also recommended in

the united nations and the drugs conventions according to. what. i have to say that we rejected this kind of conclusion so did my colleagues in the u.s. russia presidential commission just to gil kerlikowske made us harsh statement we discussed it immediately with washington over the hotline and criticized the global commission legalizing drugs is a road to nowhere more than that it will result in the growth of drug abuse let me remind you of a referendum on legalizing marijuana in california in september last year i was there when it was held where we decided with mr gil kerlikowske that a number of meetings with officials including the man the sheriff the chief of police the prosecutor all the respectable professions had a clear position against legalizing marijuana and the referendum confirmed that it should not be legalized. why would you.

as a third. california. i have explicit information from the u.s. presidential administration that this financier had largely funded the campaign. in europe. in the world what point. yes certainly this example of a global commission reminds me of a global p.r. campaign by trying so much attention but in a respectable agency like the b.b.c. covered the fact that this belongs to the u.n. i mean even serious agencies were confused therefore there are many reasons to believe that this drug lobby had funded the campaign moreover i want to indicate that we've been. various international platforms on may tenth i spoke at the g eight ministerial conference in paris and so did many of my colleagues we said that unfortunately our fight against drugs said both local and regional levels because

the global level stays even beyond our understanding this concept hasn't been developed yet i did this context i want to know that the former under secretary general of the united nations antonio costa who was responsible for the drug problem mentioned that in two thousand and eight to two thousand and nine in the midst of the global financial crisis three hundred fifty two billion u.s. dollars from selling drugs were pumped into the world's leading banks this means that a certain global level determines all sets the demand for drugs turnover and ultimately a political order for this production. as far as the withdrawal from afghanistan is concerned the picture is unclear so far it was said that the withdrawal would start and certain parameters for it had been set they'd mentioned thirty thousand troops by the end of the year when i was

in washington last september they were talking about the need to increase the military contingent in afghanistan exactly by thirty thousand now the time to return least thirty cells and so in fact nothing has changed i think that the world community and you can disagree is beginning to consider the situation in afghanistan because there were several reasons behind a decision to launch a military operation and the decision of the world community to interfere in the internal affairs of this for country. first to put an end to the taliban rule to set up an interim administration and hold free elections. these tasks were supposed to be in six or twelve months but this september we'll see the tenth anniversary of that interference it's longer than world war two the situation in afghanistan hasn't improved it's become even worse and even senior officials like general petraeus for example is commanding the military operation in afghanistan says that the number of armed clashes there increases year after year in fact the number of

armed clashes over the past ten years has increased more than one hundred times so have the assigned tasks been achieved we see that security in afghanistan has only got worse it's said that drug production cannot be fought because it damages the security situation in the country so it's a kind of closed circle in this respect will be worthwhile to note a nato operation in helmand province which produces the most opium poppies the operation was called mashed iraq which translated from persian means together. the operation was presented as a brilliant military success considerable kilometers and hectares of the province were reportedly cleared of insurgents but the production of opium has never stopped that's why would he still settlement as necessary we've started talking about. it was highlighted at the london conference on afghanistan in two thousand and ten the autumn conference in kabul also stressed the need to find a peaceful settlement to the latest initiatives voiced by the us president barack

obama negotiations with the taliban on the latest resolutions of the united nations security council which divided responsibilities with the taliban and al qaeda are offering a unique opportunity in my view to drop a program of eliminating drug production i've just come from a meeting of the parliamentary faction of the progressive alliance of socialists and democrats the second largest faction in the european union here outside the european parliament building we discuss the e.u. strategy toward. large sections of that strategy are devoted to liquidation of drugs production strategy matches very well with the russian drug to. liquidate the production of drugs in afghanistan the direction that russia and the european union are taking together for a smile so today we have a unique opportunity for resolution and decisive action. the head of russia's federal drug control service thank you very much for speaking with us today thank you very much.

let me soon reach brighton if you move the whole song from feinstein's parachutists . he's from stunts on t.v. don't succumb. to headlines on t.v. under the bodies of over one hundred people including many children could be recovered from the fall go for the side of something sinking of a pleasure cruise or rescuers continue the search from all of us around thirty of the main reason. the american missile shield over europe remains the main obstacle in russia u.s. relations with moscow wants legal guarantees it won't be talking to them and say hey i'm some russia's foreign minister so if you offer often i want to visit to the united states. of the eurozone economic crisis and even sound saddam's death was downgraded to junk fueling fears the country may need

a second bailout this comes out shortly after similar predictions were made about portugal with its early also tipped to be on the first. out of the headlines i hear on our table now it's kate with the sports. oh well no this was a day when say our lives could take over the. last eight years why beat mexico one nil to such a quarter final showdown would place argentina lorica. in the regal or if all eyes are on mcelroy as the twenty two year old goes to his second gold major in a row this weekend's british open. the first of all and year ago i secured a copper america quarter final against argentina to a narrow one zero victory over mexico in the latter the only goal was scored by alviro there after fourteen minutes picking up the rebound from diego for once free

kicks and that could have been even more the year ago i thought i would click in the post minutes later. was second half they struck the woodwork again nicholas love there though hitting the upright this time mexico thought they equalised late on but rafael marquez lugo's effort was ruled offside in his side to a group stage exit from the competition for the first time i hear a guy finish second in group c. argentina. over bottled it if you go on the big important thing is that the team and are we qualified and the tour managed to achieve our plans to be sporting to present forward as a club i just want to help out and do the best for the team in whatever way that can be. scary goals so now we have an important game on saturday we have to stay relaxed and be ready to take our chances and hopefully they will rise. meanwhile chile will head into the quarter finals as groups the winners of the stoppage time goal from under a patio to the bakery one l.

in mendoza both teams were reduced to ten men just after the hour mark reuss john caught up on minor injuries john both enjoyed seeing red and the game was finally decided after a ninety second hundred. that party however despite the defeat brewster finished third in the group and also qualified for the last eight. well meanwhile a possible move to see carlos tevez return to south america has been scuppered brazilian side corinthians say they will not increase their initial offer of fifty five million dollars which was turned down by the strikers club lunch the city twenty seven year old is currently playing for argentina at the copper america had stated he wants a new way for the manager for family reasons before the start of the new season however a move back to his former club corinthians now looks unlikely to be seen in transfer window closing in july the twentieth. well meantime city's arch rivals manchester united have been dealt a blow in their bid to buy netherlands material that was missed neither from inside

milan in fact the serious side have denied their twenty seven year old star is up for sale nor do they confirm any official approach have been made snyder is under contract with intervals for years but has been terribly linked with a move to be english champions. well with or without snider united are in america for the pre-season world football challenge tournament it's the start of a new era in united's midfield up of course scholes retirement and one of his it to harvard university managers right it's revealed he's missed out on signing aston samir nasri but adds there's now a chance for a young star to shine in the night his ranks. as i was. there all work over. the next few weeks maybe hope is. someone. my age is native american so we're not. do you. have your own proves america is. coming out well real madrid are also at the pre-season tour and coach josie has

been here believes they're closer to permanently signing on loan out to buy all in iraq i gather from as you can measure it right now i was speaking ahead of his team's game against l.a. galaxy on saturday which is something christiane i remember was looking forward to along with galaxy they've been backing up there and. it's a good game for us because we re still and imprecision so will be great it's really exciting because i always like to play and it's simply against good teams to go to far as we feel more motivated so it will be a great survey and i hope of course it's only going. to be facing real madrid star much me since i left you know it's emotional because you you get attached to a club you get attached to the people at the club. and to be facing. a team with the talent that they've got in the team not just with the talented guys that have got here but the young players and of course chose a. that's been

a friendly to remember for one goalkeeper on his debut for the san jose but maybe even being given discarded punts in a friendly against english premier league side west brought the ball over the entire length of the pitch bounced over the head of his opposite number but as my health and then that son jose went on to win the match in one. cycling now a disgraced russian right that alexander. the drugs test of this year's tour de france has been defended by his doctor but now says he does not know why he tested positive for a band director and his job is not under any highlight names it makes no sense for cyclists to take this drug that encourages the loss of crucial fluids from the body however it can be used to mask the use of other drugs karloff says he believes colombia has always been clean cyclists healthy drawn from the race and now waits to. his be sample if that's positive his team katyusha will sack him and filed in five years' wages which would be around three million dollars. so the talk

continues without him and cheers they staged and was won by german sprinter and think i pulled his former teammate mark cavendish went for the line with around two hundred metres left but the followed could have more power to change his first win in the tour frenchman thomas very cliquey to the yellow jersey is a minute and forty nine seconds ahead of spain's luis sanchez. formula one now and we may have to wait another three years before russia's first race is held in sochi but this weekend top teams red bull and ferrari will be in the city to start watching the appetite they'll show off their cars along with lotus and run over who are bringing their russian driver with ali patrol along with them and the organizers believe it will further boost the sport's popularity in the country. so . we want to show that formula one is beautiful we want people in sochi not only to see but also hear formula one because the sound can't be compared with anything but unfortunately the popularity of formula one is not as big here is in europe but

stan is the thing we must change and in turn that could attract more visitors to such a new vehicle which would usually you would have us do it now n.b.a. superstar kobe bryant has reassured his agent funds he's feeling fine despite reported treatment to his right knee last month the los angeles lakers playmaker was in manila to hold a coaching clinic for kids basketball is huge in the philippines so everybody was jumping for joy but off the wood court worries were abounding that bryant is going through hard times with his arthritic knee the thirty two year old to quantico has undergone any sort of therapy has been good shape with the first of his five city tour of asia. now and after cruising to emphatic victory at the u.s. open many expect wally mcelroy to win the british open championship which gets underway on first. a twenty two year old from northern ireland has been the center of media attention and hasn't played a competitive ransom's win at the congressional three weeks ago that matter rice

says that's the way he likes it. yeah i mean i'm trying to prepare for this it's major like i prepare for every other major. you know i've been i was here last week for a couple of days and i got a couple of practice rounds and you know one time to practice you know sort of get away from everything and and then come back here on you know on tuesday which i usually do you know it seemed to work the last few days the last few times i've done it so you know i want to just you know keep this in the same thing go on and you know you know the things that work well you seem so confident fellow but he'll have his what he wants to get his hands on a second major new world number one luke donald is among his main competitors although some big names are also missing out constantine looks at the ins and outs of this year's open championship. the highest paid professional athlete in the world to get awards is still the biggest name in golf one of the fourteen time

major winner we knew still been due to trouble some left leg injury be thirty five year old square still equal and best college in the reject nicholas total of eighteen on the big for now but a tire guesses health back. tiger when again he went he went quite a bit again and you know where i broke my record probably injury also ruling for muslim in and out of the schools oldest major in the most bizarre circumstances the forty two year old became the second local quit to win the french open at the start of women's and broke his leg after jumping in the lake to celebrate his victory phil mickelson and lee wist would remember top contenders as usual wolf lefty and westy have been struggling for form of weight the remarkable way you stop of the build up to his stunning first major victory at the u.s. open the twenty two year old northern irish man choosing to take three weeks off towards meaning he hasn't played

a competitive throne since his greatest ever day probably a lot of pressure being put on him. which he said i'm a piece of fortune is natural but this the pressure is going to be he's going to be looked upon especially to tighten up play he's going to be looked upon as the new kid coming through so i think that pink either go one way or the other that could get in called vents or it could actually provide too much pressure at the end of the day he has the great chance he's thriving all confidence because of the usa and when he is used to links golf he grew up on it is no reason why the ecology well and look new and also among the frontrunners after securing his first victory since becoming world number one at the scottish open great year and every bit every hold off he's played over here where he's played very very well i've noticed playing well he's playing hurt what a worker he is he looks a member of our court my course at home and he absolutely is on the cutting chipping green and bunker play and he's there all the time and he works harder than

anybody out there saying he's getting results however the thirty three year old english man will have to rewrite history as no clint has ever won the scottish open in gone on to win the british open. fire chief. and has all the sports news back again to last time. mission free credit cation free. for charges free to make amends free. free. free. and free blood can flood video for your media projects and free media god to our teeth dot com. for the full story we've got it for. the biggest issues get
