12:30 pm
hello this is r.t. from moscow my name's kevin and it takes thirty pm this month even if it's been with us our top story live pictures to take a look at here coming through from london from the east of london hackney to be precise another round of riots is reportedly breaking out there these are the latest pictures just to tell you how many is again more precisely it's in the northeast of the city we're hearing reports that groups of people began attacking police a bit earlier throwing rocks and bins at offices are also having reports that eight riot bands have been drafted in there and about two hundred police officers in riot
12:31 pm
gear it looks pretty place from the moments. when the shot comes back i think they've now moved but you can earlier on you see a line of police officers across the road that looks like have a public if and evacuated from the area can see many people walking around there police also looking at that carefully if anything does kick off and we will of course bring you the details. of the other big story today global markets favor u.s. stocks head south for the first trading session after the credit downgrade comes on top of the volatile trading day elsewhere in the world thanks to the spreading you repeat that crosses. and it's three years since georgia launched an attack on the people of the small republic of south set here we spoke to those who bear the scars like they conflict it claimed hundreds of lives. because changes sweep through the arab world some countries are finding it easier to get out than others next iraq's foreign minister tells us see how the
12:32 pm
revolutions in the region have been positive for his country. the little illimitable of the little what do you think of the demonstrations and revolutions that keep changing the arab world what is the position of the iraqi government regarding these events is a positive negative or neutral i did state that and i will have with it is positive iraq was one of the first arab states that welcomed the revolution in tunisia probably our official representative was the first one to arrive in sion is here and egypt to congratulate them on the revolution we've got good connections with other protesters movements as well they consider iraq to be an example despite all our drawbacks iraq is pursuing a line of new democracy it's an example of achieving democracy freedom and respecting human dignity we are all aware of our drawbacks however but they are looking at us whether we recognize the people's right to self-determination for
12:33 pm
fulfilling their political will and making their political choice while being free and preserving their dignity iraq is anything but neutral in this situation but at the same time iraq is unwilling to interfere with other people's affairs we can set an example that's how we see our role which does not consist in choosing leaders or . do you have the same position regarding the current events in syria going on and . yes the government has the same position regarding what's going on in syria however the investments in syria different due to the country's geopolitical position in the region and the role it plays for iraq syria is different from libya it's different from yemen with a good relationship and permanent contacts with our brothers in syria showed that we still have time for the reforms that would be really felt by ordinary people and that it is impossible to resolve the issue of soli by force. a little even
12:34 pm
officially and constantly demanding that iran should stop inviting all the neighboring regions of iraq stressing that such sanctions negatively affect the relationship. between the two countries why doesn't iran react to it is grotz weakness is that the. no these bombardments are unlawful and very harmful they've been a cause of concern for our previous and current government the people of iran and iraq are close we are friends and allies and actions like that do not serve to improve our relations which is what we keep telling them that iran wants the kurd free life party to cease activity in the border regions his demand is completely understandable but that's not the way to solve this problem you have witnessed the shootings they are chaotic and pointless we have worked in the mountains and we know that these bombardments will not lead to any result that we have recently around propose solving the issue through negotiations on of the security committees of the two countries and we support that proposal i believe that today's decrease
12:35 pm
in intensity of them bar will ultimately lead to their own we let the iranian government know about the position of the iraqi government i often hear that the iraqi government doesn't have any final position on this issue because that's not true we do have such a position and it's been stipulated in the relevant treaties and presented to the iranian ambassador more than once the position has been officially presented via diplomatic channels and in the personal meetings of the leaders i personally carried out negotiations on this with the iranian foreign minister such talks of being conducted by other ministries opposition has been published and voiced in a parliamentary address in the mass media that was. why they were there for those that mr minister the leaders of political factions are carrying out you know she is with the government on the issue of american mountings track to staying in the iraqi armed forces after america pulls most of his troops out how many are there going to be and how long are they going to stay in iraq. or yes iraq needs military
12:36 pm
instructors probably the military instructors won't be from the troops that are being pulled out from iraq probably the training itself will be conducted. irakli we must be precise the published statement only says the government is willing to start negotiations rather than conclude an agreement on the agreement to pull out the coalition troops before the end of twenty eleven remains unshaken the they were there early in the does it mean that before the end of this year all the american troops will be pulled out from iraq. or all the troops in departments will be hauled out before the end of twenty eleven without any delay but there is another problem here iraq has purchased tanks airplanes and military boats and this equipment requires a thorough preparation and good instructors and that's the case throughout the world and let's say tomorrow we buy russian tanks then the instructors must be russian as well you should not mix up two different things and talk about the troops staying there longer until now the number of instructors and other details
12:37 pm
has not been defined mr zubari i'm sure you are very well acquainted with the report presented by prime minister nouri al maliki to party leaders in parliament of the current state is something rocks armed forces what does it say how the report gives an assessment of the country's domestic security and it says that our armed forces have reached the level of proficiency and equipment status sufficient for maintaining it but i would like to point out again that we have no aircraft no air shield no defense system via our ports in the gulf an imbalance for have no cover from the sea since there is no navy in place and there still remains a need for intelligence services in the view of the threat from al qaeda and terrorism and quite honestly we still need to build up our defense capacities we need equipment and armaments as well as qualified instructors who will be able to increase our army's performance to the level where it would become fully operational and self-sustained they were given this when can we expect the iraqi
12:38 pm
armed forces to complete building up their defense capacities and he called up the task of maintaining domestic security. of this. is beyond my authority so i'm not prepared to answer this question but i can say that it will take some time no doubt or nearly to many up there is an opinion of the decision to employ u.s. forces personnel to train the iraqi army was made by iraq's political leaders and a direct pressure from the u.s. seen what can you say about that those are the that are what. you know there was no pressure the americans helped us laid a foundation and start building our new army that's one sure thing that they keep helping us and monitoring the progress they give advice on what strategic armaments we can buy for them but we have a need for them and they have their own interests in iraq and they're protecting their interests not by way of putting pressure or telling us to do this or that there is nothing of this card they say that they are ready to stay only if iraq asks them to we're not asking them our government hasn't given such
12:39 pm
a request as has for the military instructors this issue will be discussed by the government and the country's leaders that iraq has a need for them there that's. what it's even said made by iraq regarding terminating the cause of iraq's international isolation and what stands in the way of complete sanctions. quillan you know beyond all the decisions about iraq size relation by the international community disarmament w m d's oil in exchange for food and other contracts that have expired whether that's the issue of iraqi assets has been sold dozens of agreements have been cancelled but are not relevant anymore but a number of decisions were primarily concerning kuwait a still effective this is a very sensitive issue to say nothing about port mubarak of there are also other decisions that we should comply with resolution eight three three on the iraqi wage boundary demarcation so dams regime took this decision well our constitutional power must adopt this residential. as part of our humanitarian record we must solve
12:40 pm
the issue of prisoners and those missing the issue of kuwait property should be resolved her lover. but we also have casualties and separated families but a lot was stolen from our country in two thousand and three but we must solve these problems and we have started this work five percent of our oil revenues go to kuwait as compensation and that will continue got our real. given the level of the settlement of the relations between baghdad and moscow is there a problem to develop corporation relationship in all areas. thank god our relations are developing well and we're making significant progress i think that russian foreign minister lavrov his visit to baghdad is a good confirmation of this as well our relations in political economic trade construction and military areas have become quite advanced but they're very well thought through plans of russian iraqi military cooperation aiming at increasing
12:41 pm
combat readiness of the iraqi armed forces which for many years have used russian military equipment and armaments there is also a plan for russian oil companies to participate in a number of projects to develop the iraqi oil industry including some investment projects but i think that we've proved that we make no preferences and do not obstruct russia's interests in iraq markets as russian business circles might have thought earlier despite the fact that the u.s. and great britain are also active in iraq market and pursue their interests i'm sure the fair competition will allow russian oil companies to take their fair share in iraq's oil market or. you have retained your position as foreign minister and prime minister is cabinet for a second term in office what is your opinion of the premier and the government's work that's primarily a citizen of iraq and secondly the minister of foreign affairs of. that or. what have you that i love in the a man learns never expected to become prime minister you never thought about the position i for my part never thought i would become
12:42 pm
foreign minister i was just doing state service whether what a man learns i'm sure. elma leakey has learned a lot about resolving the country's problems and countering stress to iraq during his first term he and i work side by side for twenty four hours a day following and managing our affairs we would not have achieved anything if we work separately on them the country needs every one of us to work the country needs a stronger political leadership stronger parties and parliament more unity but. despite being the extraordinary and experienced man he is the sack will not achieve anything if he had worked on his own you cannot clap with one hand and call this is my opinion which we have learned a lot and we still have a lot to learn we have to define the criteria of national unity and national interests and rule the country based on these criteria and the will of the people that cannot but the people will decide who runs the country by real actions no one can rule forever the people will change and replace their rulers that is what
12:43 pm
democracy demands in all countries of the world but it was a thank you very much against. the history of this place runs through the centuries. a paradise for archeologists zoologists and ecological tourists. what one face alight shots destroyed the harmony of life. how this republic got its life by. hoping dreaming and recreate.
