if. it's. if you remember after nine eleven iran helped the united states apprehensive malka people and provided intelligence on them because remember iran. islamic government is different than the al qaeda which is sunni and the iranian government is shia and the. is hostile to the billboard furler demonizes iran so i think the problem with the unit is ation as we've seen in the case of saddam hussein and moammar qaddafi is that the united states then seems to take out those leaders after a while and if you've got a republican administration in who beat obama and next year in the elections by two thousand and thirteen we could hear the drumbeat for attacking iran which of course i think would be disastrous you have to put yourself in their shoes they do have legitimate security fears but i think you have to take them into account and you have to do everything that you can not to demonize them because that in turn

creates pressures for attacking them later on this coercive approach merely makes iran want to have weapons more run sees that iraq and libya who gave up their nuclear weapons programs they got invaded or attacked. and this is not the way. can oh and a very warm welcome for the business program but caught in central russia has declared the recent search of office by bailiffs was illegal the raid was done at the request of b.p.'s partners in the russian oil frontin t.v. people they are currently suing b.p. for three billion dollars compensation they claim b.p. broke their shareholders by attempting to form an alliance with was never to explore the arctic the raid on b.p.'s moscow office was intended to uncover files

relating to the middle seat. trade between russia and the u.k. has grown fifty percent since the beginning of the year in the wake of david cameron's visit to moscow our business editor nick paul caught up with the head of the british chamber of commerce where he started by asking him if the problems in the political sphere in recent years had a back to business interests. well i think one's got to divide the business relationships into the natural resource sector and the rest i one can say without any shadow of doubt at all that there's been no discernible impact on the non natural resource sector has the b.p. situation affected the way in which business is done here i think it's affected the business climate in this way and that is that it's created a lot of headlines and that has influenced what i call senior board level decision taking amongst british companies they have been i think in my

view overly concerned by problems that b.p. are perceived to have had an overly influence therefore in their decisions on big investments in russia what does the u.k. want from russia we want more russian company is to be investing in the u.k. and we think that that is something where actually russian companies are not fulfilling their full potential and i think then collaboration in the high tech area is also extremely important and it was an important about sprint yesterday everest nama investment in a cambridge bracy cambridge grace company and i see much much more of that is a case of selling technology for qantas with a little in the way of trade turnover of actual goods. no i don't think that's i think there are those very significant exports of manufacturers of consumer goods

increasing amount of joint ventures but i mean any modern economy you know the old idea that a developed european economy is an exporter of physical goods that is just an outdated outdated view so in any economy whether it's a us economy or even follow up a german economy a very high percentage of what you export and services. the ruble is trading close to its lowest level against the u.s. dollar for eight months investors are concerned europe's assisting that crisis demand for fuel and effectively russia's economic growth the russian crissy has lost more than one percent against the greenback in the last twenty four hours one dollar now costs more than thirty roubles despite russia's relatively healthy budget position analysts suggest the ruble will weaken further as risk appetite round the world remains low. let's have

revolution whatever you call it there were concerns that there was this may fall into the hands of terrorists has already happened in your view well of course it has because it's easier for. them to get them back it's about to recall the most of the guns that were looted albania you know if you know if you just are missing. in the hands of criminals as much of the hands of terrorists. start off point being illegally maybe you could be sold but at some point the guns they're called would be. because of libya the concerns as you know. a lot of the rebels were until fairly recently also to go down as being in the. in some cases so there are some orders that were played by deal with. you're going to call to give a marker which is always taking an interest in most problems and i want to get support for the evolution of a new sort of. control of some of the individuals within it now prior to the

uprising russia was one of the main suppliers of this to libya. but as far as i know it was not the only one and some of the countries that are now waging a campaign and military campaign against colonel gaddafi are also supplying weapons to his regime prior help me yes because it's interesting isn't it if you look at. the mall record of the west i'm just i'm just not awfully good we seem to intervene in. iraq and libya because they've got something we want i don't see anyone having any great desire to go and invade syria and this was the president thought so maybe he's got the thing nobody wants so i think that's where the real politic comes into play but yes there was a decision so you couldn't whatever reason to support the libyan uprising even though the same country needs to go to the security council and get a resolution which in parts imposed an arms about they then went

a long long way beyond those terms of reference and you could argue that the bombing campaign itself was pushing the envelope so what countries are very actually talking about apart from russia who is supplying crawled out i think most conferences most many countries about me and i know for example a shipment of pistols from beretta and it's a big because it went through a mole so they made a mistake in the paperwork but it was worth nine million euros when you go to is not a million euros so that was a huge sort of the ticket prices but they would describe i think a sporting weapons what you will support you do with a pistol but anyway so we know even the italians are you know old so if you put your shop sold military systems i don't know whether it was weapons or such i never sold a radar of this kind of thing high tech kids to the regime so yes there's been a whole range of supplies from the media all the usual suspects you know right now

all what sort of points to spend talking about and how dangerous it is and your perspective of the program with the straight world why does it every year we make more guns that are destroyed through every year the total number of weapons on the planet is increasing. quite significant i know you are including probably something like ten times more guns invade north dakota or you know there's united nations there's going to asians and culprits trying to get guns in circulation going to buybacks but various programs but the money for a brother that's who wants to make scones but i was always being struck by how cheap guns are automatic so now one thing i noticed when i was. in march and the ghaziabad. gun sort of become the some very fancy item for the young and so it's almost like having an i pod find american teenager every young person wants to have it his own kalashnikov i'm now wondering whether you can

really talk about any serious fied against arms trafficking money or have a cultural for young people really thinking that having a kalashnikov is really what makes them cool and she said this is a problem in that i mean there's i was in a boat some time ago and. sort of the company you know most of whom there's a i will know most of the saying i'm told it's a good home without a gun which illustrates the problem certainly for young men i mean one of the problems and. we're thinking so just with one of them has been it's actually. more fun for you so when you're with a girl because you're going to take what you want for the speed of the woman you just take it because you're going to go out of their homes and it will be hard to get these young men up through the decades of war it's going to come back into the city of mother so it's a real problem i mean there are international that it's wrong and establish what you might call a better organization but you're right by posing minimal standards there is

a conference in new york next year or ten years of discussions on the left which will try and organize an arms trade treaty from one of the problems at the moment is that what everyone agreeing to their arms trade treaty is a good idea to have some control of the arms trade that's what was in the treaty which is crazy with problems there was a famous. there's a time close human culture to ghost of a woman for the gold give me a chance to think about what unites many good friends feel the same way but they need to control the whole story but they don't want to put through any controls on their own or their own business now regardless of what they're thinking about and get off track records of either he would support him or not you have to believe that prior to these uprisings lead there was a sort of an island of stability and there are relatively good lives in africa which is a pretty turbulent continent. everything that is happening there i live with all that flood of. flowing around what sort of implications that could have for being

here that's the breaking it has implications certainly for the margaret because it least in terms of criminals they tend not to stay with them boardrooms so you know if you use you to organize a bank robbery and shoot this over and on the basis of weapons you get from this turmoil in libya yes i agree with you one of the troubles is the. view of the where you can type of society where the good news. is if you have it's good you will respect the route of little so therefore we have to have trust. you know police forces there's never enough police for them to control a population by pools so we have to be policed by consent on countries which police by consent generally speaking have a less gun crime on configures which is about which i'm not so policed but it's also true that we have a hard three theme the same think up ones that you tend to find the majority of gun

crimes happen not because. people want to hold an illegal weapon but because they don't have any trust and someone else looking up to them and to the police to look after them and that's where the problem starts so and that's the libyan transitional national council can very quickly establish he trusted. and police schools because main systems protect you and for me there will be a temptation to think we'll keep going because of the indifference and the resist temptation to use a gun but something shouldn't be used what sort of a naturist do you think it would really get out there which is the elite going to three it's called take it out it's here the crazy. percentage of guns but in that population i mean maybe buying their knowledge there or offering some sort of surrender container trying buy guns but here's a basic conditions that is not a good i mean i've been told and several sort of bottom complaints become not just

heard that when i was one occasion i was working i want to browse of a woman can go go go go twenty years ago and there and i forget the price but we were paying seventy five dollars to open so i could go where the problem goes out of the clunker of you could buy the book at the books so people are actually bringing guns for the comfort of became a sort of business becomes a business or any of them are going to get the brunt of it so they've been tried different ways around this by saying well as a community i was a time when there was a british oak rising up and sort of in the forest we were building you the shelter and you put station on stuff like that so that seems to work better in some ways i have to say that the problem with getting weapons at this sort of competition has much more difficult people tend to think when in kosovo it just felt truthfully it was a very very expensive company and it was it was embarrassing you're going to have one look like a look at it like the nature of the interest it is easy you know it's to get guns

of the sort of confusion which include i mean mission because i'm going to show just how big it's bulky and you can have more success and there's no point having to go to him going you know i mean mission so in many ways sort of omniscient is the key to concluding lawson's weapons if they can get out of a notion of them going to look into them you know have another question i'm not sure about your comment about it but if it's just a lot of personal observations. this uprising began back in march it was primarily driven by they see young people like teenagers a young man in that twenty's whole bunch of the frontlines almost for the fun of it but the pictures we're now getting from tripoli show very different sort of probables there is a middle aged man who seem to be a far more professional than their handling of boris. how did that shift happen i think first of all going out on the ground for all this i mean. sort of watch myself growing over the new young man you think you are more full i think what is now part of the revolution. was going to the stage without being successful would

you go about writing for both of the people who are in civilian clothes of the middle age i would guess this is a good officer. the word of the year when these people are going to train sons and finally i have a question there regarding the recent allegations or theories that some countries may be. illegally selling arms to the rebels i know that the french have a pretty cool thing about them and sometimes some rebel groups. which it is ok so it's a breach of the security council resolution which one could only people. sticking with a permanent member of the security council goes wrong crossing a resolution there but you know i think it's going to punch through but you know real the real will is sometimes not so the last place to be in. a british foreign secretary nation century said one person who has no friends of the printer

interests i think that's true of every country it's true of russia it's true of us it's true of americans on the fringe so people will look to their interests as they see them at the time but yes it's about thing with the do lots of nation system is not going to work it it's done for it's i'm going to work that's waiting to go and it's going to the nothing else it's the best system we have and i think it's is very unfortunate for the member states of the security council and then ignores the resolutions they voted for us. thank you very much for the time but you know. one thousand miles from the north pole. to spitzbergen
