board of the planes into it as it slams into the new year will bring the high winds and heavy downpours and the detail of destruction it's also claimed at least fifteen lives. it surely has been one of the major players in recent nato led military campaigns such as in afghanistan and libya next altie talks to do farrow just to intrude thailand weekly news magazine let's press so about the country's role in these conflicts and that economic interests are a big factor for time and politicians. new. allegations of italian forces paying bribes to the taliban first appeared in the media in te thousand and nine claims that were furiously denied by but now u.s. diplomatic cables uncovered by telling us press a magazine reveals that concerns over the alleged payments reached the highest levels of the us administration we're joined now by the editor of the magazine

generally good thank you very much for joining us say you like a scene uncovered these diplomatic cables. these cables go. down so what was going on in afghanistan we have a difference. saw to make an intelligence about this by him and be made by the government until ninety nine. do we can. leave as a confirmation because according to these files bush personally president bush was asking berlusconi our first minister to stop prime and in afghanistan when the. publisher of some allegation all of the ten out of these of the member of the government of the defense minister. the buscombe person won't deny that they said that the was not by meant why we can exclude boars now or give us the evidence that

the taliban government was paying some tribes the taliban in afghanistan ok so let's talk a bit more about what happened in two thousand and nine when these allegations first came out the response from the italian government there was no response you have to feel that every finger about afghanistan he needs is a. question because of the we never say that italian troops are in afghanistan for war we always say to the parliament. that it's a peace mission and so everything about afghanistan is covered by a secret state secret military secret and most of all this information all the evidence about what italian troops do every day in afghanistan fighting. what all the troops do in afghanistan in italy is the night of the levels why did the italian forces take this approach towards easing. it's

a traditional way i mean all the forces doing. the proof of british forces paying some tribes in. cash there was an incident in two thousand and five or. the c. one hundred eighty from the bleed from the reality for. the south in afghanistan manti's was full of money there was this man a bearing with the aircraft and cash man a dollar and they were used. to. many sources including these files italian secret service where just two hours. of quiet say ok italian troops are going to stay here for six months we don't care what they were going to do in the future we just want six safe months and this is

the prize we are going to pay for let's talk about. it in libya the name in. public opinion in libya is a different question because libya is. is a big economic call affair for italy. traditionally leaned over it italy for. us for nature or for the interest. of all the big italian factories in libya actually it's the libyan government. you created which is that i am because bank a in the past they all have even today they only a small amount of. it's. very important for our economy and so that's a different question when we we have we have the side the telegram

at the side of the bell seen in benghazi because there was a bigger canonical interest in it and they can sense now that we could possibly see a very disorganized group of rebels coming in and maybe a similar situation to be seen in iraq that this organization plays out this is a big. speech really because of the actually the people are solved as not been made by forces coming from the east the falses. link at the really tight end government but the forces coming from the west which seems more link at the with british government i mean in italy we have a similar. situation in libya even with even now as like a big chess between italy and france. to reach.

of all fields some of the gas fields in libya libya is a big question we. we fall to that french the great retain where using red belts to. c.l. italian assets in libya that's was the biggest fear of anything and you think that's the case i don't know we would see at the end of the game actually the game is going on and so. ballingall ran amok mostly the italian be getting an education and he was going strong leaning seen the county envoy has got there he is. for an affair. department which is very very strong i think that and he was playing good in the last part of the secret the libyan war but we will see at the end which gene but secretly. what

was going in all these. game or chariots between different tribes different group of rebels different of the former gadhafi government now we have some very important members of the government who used to withdraw much more use to prove. it is and italian economical groups but we don't know if these people are still. good links with the tribes and with the groups who made the rebellion and so we don't know which tribes which group which government is going to start in the next future most of all we don't nor will really. the. gas lines. pipelines this is the most important question for you to

describe what's happening live is a chess game of if issue reasons the nato mission in libya was humanitarian reasons i mean realistically i mean how much of it does come down to political games on monetary and the libyan mission as in my opinion question is a nonsense because the reason of the mission was to protect population. the. and so when yesterday there was the way back up back to was. while the nato mission got to do to stop the i've been sucked back to. the people living in tripoli i mean you money stab them a mission was just a diplomatic cold of a mission full of different interests. i don't think it was and. you have just made me up and well that one. is keeping before me any ground so

the players have to take up second jobs here that set up the standard of bandy is increasing all the time crease in salaries also helps that there are a number of other factors which are making the sport better the more and more popular in the likes of russia in sweden there are a number of factors limiting the development of banding firstly it's not for lympics sports which means it difficult for associations in countries where the sport isn't as popular to get state funding also votes are very fast and it's hard to game to watch one understands the sheer speed of the game isn't suited to be a whole can be difficult to see as can sometimes be the case and field hockey are the most professionals up and we need to try to spread the game. really in play a tournament scene countries where the game isn't as developed it that it will the big championships take place in russia and sweden so we should try to play more in countries like finland norway and even in north america where the people read about the game in magazines however it is only when they see on t.v.
