thoughts do you think it's a popular uprising for the better to bring democracy or you think it's something maybe there's been all chris traded from abroad over to you so. so we've seen very important development in our region and in north africa it's not only about the people in the region today justice and dignity are among the requirements of all human beings africa have the same aspirations and i think our region has the ability to run our own countries and they have the ability to reach their goals and objectives it's important to take note of the interference of nato in the region nato to interfere in the affairs of libya as security council has made a mistake instead of sending bombs and plane to libya they should have sent mediation groups in order to prepare for free elections under the auspices of the un and whoever won the elections would be acceptable for the people but the security council hastily issued a resolution and it has complicated the situation that has led to the killings and the massacre of people and destruction of infrastructure in the country. do you

think iran needs to liberalize do you think you should introduce more political reforms that maybe head off something similar happening in this country as well at some point in the future does it worry you at all. i think the entire world needs more freedom and more than everybody else in the world the europeans and the americans need freedom in europe is there freedom really is there real freedom in the united states they're beating people in the streets do you think the dissenting voices in your country of which there are some are listening to you give any heed to what they have to say to you. i think we have more freedom in iran than other countries on the voices are heard more than in other countries i am among the people and i am in close contact with the people we have most media we have put free press and they criticize the government but if you think they are to say we have an ideal situation where in the world can you find a fully ideal country iran is among the best countries in the world in this respect

we've never said we are perfect we should be a comparison let's look now at your neighbors new relationship with so your nearest neighbors a people are ready. yemen lebanon iraq. some of those countries have been complaining we're meddling in their internal affairs do they have a point. have we done a bad thing that we said people should not be killed in bahrain what bad thing did we do do you call it interference who is using military force in bahrain probably doing that who is interfering in the internal affairs of the region show me one place or one location in the world where iranian military forces are present there is no such place but british forces american forces nato forces there around us everywhere there surrounding iran and those same forces say iran is interfering in the internal affairs of the region what can we say to that. only recently iran announced that you've stepped up production of new centrifuges faster better

centrifuges to make better higher quality. a question mark is why i know you've said all the long line round does not want nuclear weapons ran is a peaceful country but of course a lot of people in the west don't believe that they do feel there's not enough transparency do you think this country you should be doing more to make it more transparent. we don't like that some countries have nuclear weapons if we're going to be against nuclear weapons we must rise in opposition to current nuclear arsenals the realm only you clear arsenals in belgium and germany and other european countries. to just get this straight are you saying that at some point in the future you may want to acquire a nuclear deterrent a nuclear weapon. never never we do not want nuclear weapons we do not seek nuclear weapons this is only human to work with our religion says it is prohibited and we

are religious people nuclear weapons have no capability today if any country tries to build a nuclear bomb in fact they waste their money and resources and they create great danger for themselves the international equations are not determined by nuclear arsenals today the americans have nuclear bombs and nuclear weapons and could they win in iraq and afghanistan could be a nuclear weapons help the israelis to gain victory in lebanon and gaza could nuclear weapons help the former soviet union from collapse. and you clear weapons of the weapons of the previous century our goal in the country and the goal of our people is peace for all nuclear energy for all nuclear weapons for non all nuclear activities in iran are monitored by the i.a.e.a. or be no documents against iran from the agency it's just a claim by the u.s. that we are after nuclear weapons. people ever consider it possible that we. ited states israel could make strike against you could launch military action against your country does it worry you. they want to do it but they know what they know

that we would give them a very decisive response i'm sorry to ask you again they say when you say a decisive response what you mean is that what you're talking about there. we would give them a crushing response got a normal reaction we have a saying if someone throws a small stone you reply with a bigger one we will defend ourselves to our full capability but i hope that will never come there's no reason for war why should they attack us. the same regards israel as well then yes there's no reason ever to go to war then there's no reason to make a first strike a preemptive strike against them would you ever see the. case of the zionist regime is different it was created for the purpose of threats and aggression it was created to secure the interest of the west if the zionist regime didn't terrorize occupy or threaten it wouldn't exist they've been created solely for their purpose

and in the past sixty years they've always done the same thing they've always behaved the same way but anyway they can look at the world map they can see around there and our history and our geopolitics. plant which has been in development for a long time obviously as a country will be very much looking forward to the coming on stream to give you nuclear power you know when the launch date will be know the operational date when it feeds the grid. it will be operational they say before the end of the year there is no problem of course it's part of the relationship between us and russia but of course that can be seen by the world community and the entire international community watches how russians are building our nuclear power plant. what focus on china a fast developing country actively promoting itself here in iran at the moment how do you see iranian development both ways do you think you'll be selling more of your energy to china in the future. we have a two way relationship iran and china are two important and large countries and they enjoy centuries old civilizations and consciousness we've always maintained

friendly ties and today we have identical views on international development for the common denominator in our relationship is based on justice and security for all . relationship with russia has always been very good but it was a little shaky when for the first time russia decided to go with sanctions imposed here you said that was inadmissible last year and acceptable what i relations with russia now. iran and russia are two neighbors geographically we should always remain neighbors we cannot change that reality because we cannot move our land we must be friends and we must remain friends we must be in a position to make use of these resources and common views earlier i had very good talks with mr putin and also very useful discussions with president medvedev i hope will be able to expand our bilateral relations especially with regard to the present global economic and political changes iran and russia can offer common

solutions to the current international troubles and the two sides must develop their ties and contacts and hopefully we'll be able to increase the level of those bilateral relations in twenty thirteen you'll be coming to the end of your a second and final presidential term you've been extremely busy for the last eight years what are you going to do then what does the president then become what are you looking forward to doing and what would you miss about the job we have free elections in our country whoever is elected by the people will be the right one and this is the right of our nation they have the right to freely elect anybody they wish and i will help them i mean university professor and to preserve his job and profession and i'll continue to serve the nation anywhere and at the university they'll be no problem. i ask you know what you will most miss about the job would you most enjoyed about the job. myself. ok. president up an image of the run thank you so much for taking the time to be with altie

international and your time's preciousness for much appreciate it. this is a table from the u.s. embassy in colombo gets up to talk about here it apparent june seventh incident of extrajudicial executions the military reports in the press that on that they've killed nine guerrillas and come back the best suggestion by construct your own could have you know and there's going to be strongly suggest however that the nine were executed by the army and then dressed in military fatigues. cut. explain how you know this kind of phenomenon where bodies are dressed up as guerrillas and presented as killed in action and this and this idea that you need to produce bodies actually encouraged paramilitary collaboration this is a cia document central intelligence agency they knew about these activities they

knew they were happening they knew about links to paramilitary groups and yet. u.s. aid continued to flow.

takes fifteen to twenty million years for the planet to recover from a major extinction event but the planet has time we don't. screen going on for months twenty twenty five years and since it's been moved to eco terrorists before there was even islamic fundamentalist terrorist in this country when a nine eleven happened the bush administration could not find any terrorists because the feds couldn't find any real terrorists they decided to take these young people who were accused of property sabotage and label them as terrorists someone you destroy property. with absolutely zero intention of harming a single human being. in my mind it's not fair it's real people who are green in this country are the housewives who recycle. and the children who play trees on the weekend with their cub scout troops that's the. sound.

a five day war and claimed hundreds of innocent. try to add to those are the headlines from this past week. the sport we thought of samuel eto'o was it was going to be playing his football in russia soon but perhaps not for the cameron strongly giving a cryptic message about whether he will leave to play for and even though it did seem like a done deal a few days ago i don't know. and i. i like the plants around watching the sport good to have you company and think ahead . some ways in size only focus on joining tear scars the top of the russian premier league. plus little money american student gus in a league of white page a championship. on the server

a unique and former number one three in the williams reaching the world cup on. the need to have the chance to join to see a scar at the top of the russian premier league later today a fifth win in a row against would be enough for them for level on points with the young men however. he insists it won't be easy have a better record on the road than at home that said they still buying one five times this season so need a still without in good midfield this same as well portuguese midfielder danny is a dad don't have any injury problems of their own but history isn't on their side they've only been once before and that was six she is a. elsewhere today ultra wealthy off the mighty spot of moscow and i knew she had to head across a guy like bottom side streets of yet so. seventeen terry since he is there at the moment he grabbed a point at ruby yesterday although it's only the second one in three games and

without a word behind the off time he does not tell his story from the spot the ref played for. the young man had a chance to school a penalty themselves in the second half after city star striker wagner love was pushed in the six yard box and signature age blast from the spot so still. one point however his side kept pressing right up until the end they got their reward challenge is a go if with the allies it's a one one the final score. to scar three points about second place and if you asked time. well girls were in short supply when you know not going terry gross in matter to him take the visitors from jetlag rather belated early on you were thrown creeping into the pack. but that was as good as it would get the terror you know my first equalizing through on the revolver enough the half an hour. and then six minutes later building if you could on your neatly taking.

to the side of the brain would make terex job even harder show through process does it matter to you support times enormous proof that sixteen had a one sided crash would you nominate him to be in four points of top spot themselves. spot and meanwhile have climbed off the bottom falling when away to seats on the business taking the fifteen eastern time alexander the justice in finding that he didn't dare on the intended to mislead to see. them. or when it looked are easy to school but the striker would make amends right at that hitting home with the taunts side's defense once again you will see the school inside parry. the band six after beating ross so see one on the right zillion defend sprue first record ban i took back

a month ago well for the equaliser. but shortly after that mark and i began six minutes in front again meanwhile off the page and cameron struck a similar to says he might not sign for russian club after row he says negotiations are ongoing with the club but added he will stay at interop for a site in england and he reported to have offered him a type package of just under seventy dollars. well the first day of the new english premier league season so giving you a sense softened his debut arsenal the gunners drawing the only will with newcastle at st james's and a new red card with fourteen minutes to go after the sloppy newcastle going fast and in the face of the manager arsene banga thought he should just be that booking elsewhere sunderland fans back to take a point at anfield new commercial side queens park rangers the pressure formula trying to bolt and do it spot at the moment along with his big black i know it's

got a four and a way to we can put an aston villa shared their story and spurs against as it was just because of the rise in england in the fleet. now on sunday defending champions mansion i think west brom and chelsea in that count got stuck. to get on the americans are leading the way i go find final major of the year brendan steele and jason dufner are shot ahead of keegan bradley at the p.g.a. championship still has only finished in the top ten one so far this season and that was when he won the texas open so his sudden form here where he shot a sixty six in saturday's taking a fee by surprise stu one seven and overall along with another unexpected nine jason toughness keeping up his great full thirty's back to back on the fifteenth and sixteenth holes giving him a share of the lead while another american. bradley is just a shot given the american some type of their first win in six majors short of the

day although we don't think he meant it when snow non's rory mcilroy all of the water there nicely to last his ball on to the green had to smile even though he's sporting shots offering to stuff and steal who are trying to stay focused. my expectations are just to go players all around a barrel and if it's good enough been great and if it's not then you know it'll be my this is my first major so hopefully first of many you know produce a little anxious for me i don't think i get i guess you could probably call but for me saying. just to get out there to be competition go on and see you know how you can stack up against this field against this golf course that's what all the guys are out here they're all trying to win tournaments in it just want to see how they stack up i think to new faces but a familiar name is taking control of tennis again former world number one trainer williams is through to the final of the road just cup and drank eighteen the world after a long layoff or injury but it's coming back to the best sweeping past week torrie as a ranker in straight sets that were used to seeing much to set up

a final this friday sound stows. also it was made to work a bit harder for the semi with agnes could advance the pole leveled the match at a settle but then responded in a decided to take that six two and the match finishing with an ace to settle back with the big. i'm fine with another big name rushing to catch up with from ice hockey as n.h.l. veteran so big on charge is a stanley cup win and five time all star and told us about his favorite plays training regimes and of course his own future in the gut. not skating at the summer time very much and there were a minnow about the server we're going to start getting next week. and then you know war cost wise i just try to use my you know body weight for more of them off

weights or it just different i don't think you know there is really something special about it you know what your money needs and you know how much time you need to get ready so it's very much the program that you kind of. figure out three per year and. i would love to play a man that's close to every winter olympics in russia i'm sure i mean seems like. country government you know the doing everything to make sure you know everything is going to force a lost soul and i'm working really looking forward for it's all hope well play there were a bit and i'm going to play on the phone we're going to watch the games. because . it was a cause of mine for i think a year. before it went to north america and i had a chance to work with him during that will call. so i know him i know him i'm in

an old style he's of course trained so or i think way he's one of those guys who. are you know wants to win every level that he's working. with and i don't think that there is anybody close to be there on that stuff on a screen or malcolm know how will charm since i was very symbolic for everybody else and them they are they have so much now on them since i get to i mean there is you're a good player but i don't think there are as good as how can the average general. culture. seems like the league is progressing over the years last couple years the games there are getting more competitive for my thing for quality of hockey getting better so when i was serious there were often very few of my friends who were going

there and they saying the same thing so they show i think moving in the right direction and not just the ny they'd be easier to surface for a chain on building a new league and sounds like you're doing the right things and then move forward. with. the talk for a few or some players are the problem i play for the purpose of where's whole far they want to championship larry last year for the captain for the team and then talk to him i talked on the once in a while i'm not sure where you are going for the call them next few days and you. keep in touch with those guys some great telling you what's going on. as long as i feel healthy going on there is no injuries so like the continuous crying i feel like are i mean i still want to play i had a surgery a couple years ago on my shoulder and i'm asking this for almost a year

a month away was great to spend time with your family because for my career i've been traveling a lot from you know spend a lot of time away from the family but you know in the same time i felt like there is still i still want to play and you know i'll still hunting or playing somewhere . and that is how the sport is looking for the moment with all the other candidates .

great. comfort to. you. some pics of the. moscow. indiana she's available in the movie the joint.
