10:34 am
a half months. i am in this position and has been established to. be direction of the president of the russian for the federation mr medvedev. decision was taken by what the minister said your lover of the basic idea here is to. probably even more actively. profile our country russia in the field of human rights democracy and rule of law there was a very important issues and then mentions or international relations as you know and of course an extremely important part of my job part of my job description i am a c. used to morning to this issue we've shown with the implementation of human races. in the world and across the globe. it's not only human rights.
10:35 am
shown in my title it is also doing the angle of low key russia realistically export democracy a wealth exporting democracy and we do not think as a matter of principle that democracy can be exported but. obviously democratic development should come first and foremost from within the countries and we consistently proceed from the assumption. you know there are no i mean the shouldn't be such thing as a first or second year you know that some can three is expected more to leave to the democratic standards than the others. or so you are selling to means universality and this is the concept which is not unique. to russia. and internationally acknowledged concept how do you respond to this human rights
10:36 am
watch report which highlighted u.s. reluctance. to investigate systematic torture and illegal imprisonment by officials in iraq. is an interesting question actually. we took note of the report. it is not the first time. human rights defenders let me put it in this way or international organization which is the wing non-governmental organization of this case which is dealing with you on the raids drawing attention to this issue we have heard the us american human rights defenders also from the non-governmental sector demand action from the u.s. government namely the proper investigation of a number of cases very firm not mistaken they have been a number of lawsuits against the us government dealing with the religious human rights violations during the so-called counterterrorist operation in particular
10:37 am
during the military campaigns in iraq and afghanistan. you mentioned also. the b.c. i'm a one time miles who were there was another base in bagram and i'm going to stand up till now. unfortunately there hasn't been a proper investigation and. there hasn't been any proper. punishment so there is some degree of impunity will be asleep here and. quite a major issue in the field of human rights i just might say that we expect that the us government will react to those. recommendations in a proper way of course the. accusations mostly refer to the period of the previous of the bush administration. and that we know that the incumbent administration of the star bombers administration has pledged
10:38 am
a. number of times to deal with those issues. do you still have to go on how to have been recently arrested by the serbian authorities and you called for a fair trial for this man what are the chances that hardage. will receive a fair trial in hague we expect that those trials will be free or will be objective will be based on facts. we'll be impartial i am not politicized those are the most important great tyria on which the i.c.u. way used to operate under its men detection and unfortunately the practice you know a number of respects. different ways and you know would have to have been a lot of. criticism gland problems related to the past if you wanted to be sure to
10:39 am
give it is including. standards and unfortunately there has been sort of ground for this in the past we hope they're put. away in delhi sixty which is by the way under the u.n. security council resolution. by the end of two thousand and fourteen we expect that in the time remaining. international body will. draw a certain conclusion some lessons and will operate in an impartial and professional manner this is are we expecting more only are we expected this is expected to serve the serbian government as was expressed by the government publicly and this is the expectation of all members of international community a hot topic for the past couple of months has been libya what consequences will beneficials face american and european unfortunately unfortunately still it is in
10:40 am
libya have been continuing for quite some time and. the measure of the factors they have. that was who do suffer from those who are still it is most a war. and unfortunately civilians suffer from both certain actions by the forces by the government obviously and also from the air strikes the use of force by. by the coalition forces and the other important trade deal of course is proper implementation of security council resolutions and until someone to menton seventy three as far as especially as far as protection of civilians protection of civilian population is concerned what do you did to protect the integrity of security council resolution in the future. this is a very important issue and i think that. once again as the russian leadership has
10:41 am
stressed. time and again. proper lessons are to be learned. especially from the result of financial seventy three where unfortunately unfortunately the limits or the use of force more properly i would land but let us not forget that it is. the prime responsibility of the governments to protect the civilian population. there is also a very important usual sovereignty here so we expect that the governments of course will live up to their will to their respective. obligations international obligations. but if the international community eased to undertake certain steps to protect the civilians then if used to act in strict accordance with international law what brings in the produce of the statement for example in case of nato because you talk about governments and how civilians are suffering you can't governmental
10:42 am
actions but also nato actions is there a diplomatic mechanism to censor his actions in the media i would see it is not so much probably the usual censuring but of course the attitude. why didn't the national anthem. there was deviations from certain deviations from security council resolutions of course this opinion is being expressed and. we hope that the signal is being conveyed and it will be heard this particular signal. but. the most important and most acute task more store pickel task to be used once again to stop because still it is as quickly as possible to. ensure a proper transition to the political process. that rational hallett who was
10:43 am
kidnapped in africa by american agents and convicted in the united states will be given his sentence in september you have sat that pressure will not but will call for an astronaut check response which is you me we are absolutely against violating the legitimate rights of the russian citizens abroad and including including. improper extradition and which took place in that particular case. unfortunately the issues those issues are not. being satisfactorily tackled by the americans say what they would like to see is that any response is of course you know where you used to be most effective. what. proportion of. but russia has been consistently falling we are
10:44 am
with hearing the world enormous of international law so it has to be based on international law so we are not violating international law in order to fight violations of international law so this is there. i don't remember that they use the term. maybe it was there in the heat of some discussion but. the idea was precisely this to not to respond with illegal steps to illegal steps this is not the method we basically as a matter of principle used by the russian federation come to russia. for the human rights democracy thank you very much but as all men thank you.
