the moscow regions body and the international air show continues with the aerobatic displays in disguise as well as deals being signed on the ground well it's business thursday at max two thousand and eleven with plenty of death defying stunts also providing the entertainment. now the republic of the caucasus is preparing for early election a fall in the death of its president well any future leader will take on a region still recovering from conflict with neighboring georgia well next we talked to the country's acting president about the challenges his country faces. we are in the republic of a cause here where preparations are under way for the august presidential election . is the country's acting president and also one of the candidates and he's here with us today the upcoming election will be the second presidential election since the cause a gain recognition just how hard it is for

a cause here to live as an independent state i hear from of course there are many difficulties with the company a lot already but there's still an enormous amount of work to be done we're optimistic about our future the most important thing is that following our country's recognition we've had its security ensured now all we need to do is get down to work as there are a lot of things to be done for the country and people many of cause and currently reside the brought there also georgian refugees who would like to return to their homes in the plaza will the upcoming election take into consideration the needs of those who consider this republic their home then even you of course yes you know i don't see any relation between the abkhazians who reside abroad in russia or in more remote places and the refugees who became ones because of the war and as for the election it's only citizens vote republican are eligible to vote there's nothing i can add to this will international observers be present at the election who's been invited already and who agreed to come number two that you did would you

question them there will be a very many observers if one hundred is a lot stan then it is because that is approximately the number of observers that will be monitoring on election we have already sent the invitations are polymer source and that by the way observers were present in significant numbers at the previous election when sergey baggage got reelected i can tell you honestly that their evaluations were mostly positive full and because you. can see that our election to be fairly democratic and transparent and maintain the difficulty should serve as an example for many countries and i think the upcoming election will go exactly like. that is well since a pause here remains unrecognized by many countries what are the chances that the current election will be considered legitimate abroad when we have with them there's a new boom we don't even focus on that what matters to us is that we must administer the election in accordance with up concious legislation how others may react to it is another matter what is truly important is that we do everything right and those

who unbiased will come up with an impartial assessment of the election as for the issue of recognition of our election let me speak plainly even if it sounds a bit too blunt for this interview we don't really camping according to supporters of your competitor sergey shamba is the current leader of the polls with almost forty percent support what are your views on the campaign. in compliance with a longstanding principle i would prefer to refrain from mentioning any names now and according to our new and improved procedures i wouldn't cite any figures public opinion is a very intricate matter especially in the air because in society and figures do not always reflect the actual situation the results of the election will become clear once the votes have been counted and formalize in an official statement as for today we're busy preparing the votes and the election campaign is generally moving ahead without any trouble but there are occasional rough edges but i'm confident that the people in some of the campaign headquarters really just their stances and keep along the guidelines of the agreement that was signed by the three

presidential candidates the political battles of two thousand and four place the pause there on the brink of civil war what should be done to avoid such a scenario today. there's nothing in the kind not by a long shot in two thousand and four the situation was absolutely different so i can tell you honestly and i believe it's very important that your viewers should be made aware of this back in two thousand and four it was through some very serious efforts by sergei baggage and rule has that the situation was stabilized i would even say that it was. thanks to the wisdom and full sight of these two politicians into the situation was resolved successfully and appropriately get calls in society was very grateful to both of them for that one if anyone feels that the events of two thousand and four may recur i believe such an assessment is premature but we i mean the society do not share the opinion of those who believe this election should end up with some kind of confrontation we have entirely different plans. the result

because in treaty on military cooperation the play grown work for stationing russian troops in the country was signed one half years ago but it has been submitted for it if occasion by the russian parliament only recently why is the process getting a fresh start today is the fear of new georgian aggression and was not a loser then that's not the worst madness about it we know that for us georgia is not a very friendly state of kanzi is present legal standing allows us to say that any aggression will be repelled if size the presence of russian servicemen feeds our optimism about the future when the safety and that of our country is securely protected and we intend to strengthen this kind of cooperation with the russian federation and we've also been collaborating with russia in other areas little everything is just getting started and it all looks promising and mutually rewarding we intend to meticulously implement the comprehensive agreement signed by

our two presidents dimitri medvedev and mr assegais baggage we strongly support the case of strengthening our relations with russia what kind of methods can we expect from georgia and its attempts of restoring what official dilling see calls the country's territorial integrity when the us over the past years we've lost a lot of people to violence at the border including over one hundred russian peacekeepers as well as obo to go its customs offices reservists and civilians and they certainly georgian politicians that is to blame. even today regretfully the georgian. often in gauging assaults and sabotage operations as you probably remember when there was a russian border troop and a young lieutenant colonel who was killed in action a few months ago it was in the news reports but despite that russian border troops keep settling down in abkhazia i believe that in the year or so our border will be sufficiently for to find them and the situation will change drastically if we are really looking forward to that or is it possible for georgians who are prepared to

recognize a cause as an independent state to return to their homes not only in the bordering gali district but also let's say in the capital so who should prosser rights come and i didn't say wouldn't you today the situation in the gali district is very different from what it was like in the past and we convinced that there will be continuous progress at the moment we've issued about ninety thousand cosima hospitals for the residents of the gaudi district and this trend continues and we strongly concerned that all people should feel safe and live in peace traditionally this area was always well developed economically and we're confident that it will pick up eventually and the life of the people in gali will improve we believe that this district has great prospects and it is going to tell us to make sure that all gali residents feel like rightful citizens of our republic of course there's a whole generation of people in a positive who survived two wars with georgia during the past twenty years as a possible at all for these people to live peaceful lives. through the model if you

refer to our young people aged eighteen to twenty they ready cherish the events of the recent past and honor the memory of those who defended that country's independence and it's the task of the government to keep strengthening this memory the way i see it our people don't live in constant expectation of things to come nor do they consciously think back to the events of the past from my point of view because these present domestic situation is very tranquil you have survived five us nation attempts during the past six years why has no one been charged you probably know who is. behind them. is your life in danger now but if you are in the past if a politician should always be aware of danger as for me personally these assassination attempts being investigated by the relevant security agencies have made considerable progress in this aspect but this is an issue for a separate discussion applies in needs foreign investment but is it possible to attract capital to projects in the country when its legal and economic status lacks

credibility in the eyes of potential investors how would a protect international investors. of course our own budget is quite modest and we certainly are in need of money in the form of investment when the president makes the investment comes from russia but we would definitely be happy if international businesses would also consider cool phrasing with the republican coliseum we are open with that and on fiscal and investment legislation is fairly advanced and i believe this is surely going to happen someday as for now we may need good investment from the russian federation and we're very happy to see it well we understand each other very well and not prospects a great the russian city of sochi is very close to a plaza is there any profit for applause in the fact that so much is being invested into such as a limp dick project the predicament sovereign in your much to our regrets we are unable to organize in jus time so as to take part in those projects at least with our commodities i'm talking about sandy gravel cement or crushed stone we do

deliver some of the materials but the volumes are very tiny if we were to increase our sales this was certainly onus of money and that would be good for both thought business and government if and with but so far sales volumes virtually insignificant but it's on top thank you for your time with us today. takes fifteen to. twenty million years for the planet to recover from a major extinction event but the planet has time we don't. see spring going on for about twenty twenty five years and since it's been moved to eco terrorist before there was even islamic fundamentalist terrorist in this country when the 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
