with the biggest chinese over twelve and. least nine people have been killed and over twenty wounded in a way will. be hard will be going to capital kabul insurgents or times the american embassy and a nato coalition headquarters with guns and grenades along with suicide blasts in the city. of makes you an r.c. russia striving to create a new high tech economy instead of one dependent on oil and gas exports are now into the show spotlight next i'll go no talks to on the toilet you guys the man charged with steering the driver's head of russia's nanotech industry. closure is that so much of the taxpayer's money i mean i would like to have a real tree emerging countries in an ever changing world but what does it mean when a country is finally emerged.

how again a welcome to spotlight the interview show on r t m l bruno and my guest on the show today is not the only two parts over the last few years russia has invested billions of dollars into the nano technology something invisible something very small but something that's considered to be a very promising thing nanotechnology is an industry that's said to be bringing russia out of the oil and gas are we end to technology into the twenty first century high tech type of economy but many people say that it's a waste of taxpayers' money since you can buy anything now and local supermarkets so is now the technology really something that will help modernize the russian

economy the man who knows this and that tele. the head of ross now know the russian corporation dealing with nano. five years ago then president vladimir putin but not to colleges a scientific study of the highest priority since then dozens of projects have kicked off attracting some ten billion dollars of by the state a private investment to coordinated force of the mall a street drum an attack corporation know was created its c.e.o. is one of the most experienced russian managers who was. through most who launched the market economy in the post soviet russia twenty years later is making the now the czech investments work. and welcome to the show thank you very much for being with us first of all the news that. has recently launched a new production line in st petersburg where it will be producing some nano

products some ceramic metal ceramics and things like that what was specifically going to produce something which is the most important part of cutting instruments of the i would say cutting the blade absolutely which is normally faced with. all the marks and parameters. that is something which may increase all of those parameters that's why. who is the very will. scientist with a good technology experience to develop this technology. we. know if we accept this ideas and we invest in developing this business and just a couple of weeks ago the start of the commercial production of. instruments and details for machinery and. machinery is it going to be like for blog

machine by drilling or something or like surgery for example yeah actually the exact of the land we're speaking to both then. they produce. cutting instruments like drills and things like that. you first begin to show the blades develop in these special technology which based on the idea or. on the blades is something which may increase the temperature and increase the pressure which is accepted by the blades. the economy world. today is facing big problems many say it's entering a period of crisis or stagnation whatever. economists in science say that future economic growth may be based only on need to canola geez what kind of technologies from your point of view are these technologies that can lead

economy out of stagnation and there's no no one of these technologies or should it's a point of great discussion. the discussion of both of the big waves. in the fall of the theory of because big diff knowledgeable. scientists can but i think. there are number of scientists all over the world who are based on his ideas developed in the beginning of the last century they developed the stage just theory of knowledge of go and according to this theory the station. the something which is based on telecommunication on a computer or on. this in the next stage that something which may be based on. there is no exact. arguments because technology of that something which is spirit intersect or all so that's something which you may apply in machinery in pharmaceutical in basic materials or in.

products in medical equipment or of wide spectrum or was smart church lists materials much more strength in. future in economic terms. today to be frank it is a gadget it's not yet a big industry it's a gadget. or you disagree it is a well i am wrong but to disagree with you because you first begin to both speaking about old. we mean something which we may get today in the market you will be right but if we will get something which is on the stage of the proof of concept or on the station even on the stage your proof or product may find something which may fundamentally change this small budget but which may change the huge industry let me give you just one example. not

a composite materials but something which has now become the part of the industrial technology all over the world where they start to be accepted mainly in space. the next stage they are applied in production if you will take the. boy in and so on so. you will know that there is about twelve percent of man a composite materials inside this board if you will take. eighty which is doable and that there are more than fifty two percent of the materials and this understandable because the weight that's absolutely critical in the you if you're safe wait it's strongly important space number one aircraft number two the next stage this may be ship building next h.

may be at the railway bogans the next stage may be the car production and we have now a number of the it will name a producer who established the program to utilize them on a composite materials but this is the way when something which is started on the very very small space shuttle this is so me good night then why at least i have hope that that a dreamliner will out thirty killen's instead of twenty four that's one option another option will fly foster the thought option of will take instead of. fifty percent gross of it will take three hundred fifty percent so if you have this materials in the you are constructor engineer you are able to convert that into the into the speed into the efficiency into the savings so what they were but bugger all there is the new material does russia today have the potential to develop such breakthrough technology that can that can help the country make

a turn from from from from raw material type economy to two high tech one i believe that we are. thank you. pathing three korsakoff stage this question station number one no it can no ship. station number two maybe there is some think. station number three everybody knows it so my understanding is now we're coming from the station number one of the station number two is following here the country is following news that you might. know one number of what is very important what we find myself in this process i find a normal sources enormous resources resources from tom of the r. and d. support resources into all of the skilled people resources into a more the technological bigger and it's not moving more school we're starting the

project for producing. policy to call in the small be in the siberia in one of the district of the region and immediately find skilled people. experience in r. and d. support and we'll produce two hundred to solve and six hundred or four policy to go on in this region and that's typical so wherever will start new businesses some of russia able to find resources which is already existing so that the country who has this resources. mr shaath the communist leader of soviet russia once said we will overcome america then mr gorbachev also said and you remember we should go further we should develop technologies now mr putin was more modest remember he said that we should reach the level of portugal like catch up with europe but these slogans are introduced but we're still as you said.

on the left and moving following i still level to what what's the problem when will or should a breakthrough happen. as all of us know soviet union economy. was able to produce some great scientific results like the space program. nuclear program milk. bottle military high tech military here ok yeah aircraft yeah. but if you will remind yourself of some kind of the technology that humans in the soviet union quantum of which was which may be applied for the ordinary people because you can see nothing which the g d t v. or radio or or anything absolutely nothing so in the soviet union there what does it mean it mean that there was a some kind of big scientific technological bagram or the quantum itself could not

produce which may be consumed by the ordinary people state need something like of the space shuttle a space. rocket can be produced but not for the order of people but there was a reserve there was resources but there were no demand. next to the market the quantum in which is based on the democracy so everybody is able to go to the shop and to buy a computer unfortunately there will be no computer above the demand is existing and i believe there at the next stage of development of the market economy in the russia the which will create this institutional framework for the you know weight of a quantum which will create the eco system for that in the way they were going to me and to make a long shorter book to convience that in the russia in next five ten to us would have absolutely real chances to create more than twenty twenty first century in the weight of

a quantum over the world stoner's says. of the russian corporation for nanotechnologies national spotlight will be back shortly after the break stay with us. well when one deals with war for us to realize that this tremendous amounts of damage that have done not just human damage but damage the physical environment in which the battlefield takes place tremendous amounts of damage done by aerial bombs by napalm boy chemical city whether it's sonic boom six tractor marine mammals or it's the burning oil field syria and iraq or it's destroyed. in the pacific for landing purposes the list just goes on and on the geneva conventions of nineteen forty nine states that they are shall be taken in war to

protect one by against widespread long term and severe damage the united states although it is accepted almost all of the provisions protocol one has taken exception to that. decades back and try one thousand miles from the north pole. the iraqi t.v. mistaking on a trip to spitzbergen on compelling go. where twenty years after the u.s. was ours collapsed the soviet way of life is still going strong. for the world's northernmost statue of lenin presides over a ghost town where the summit heritage has become a tourist site for those overcome by the cold war in the style of.

the close up special edition on our t.v. . welcome back to spotlight i'm al green over and just to remind you that today my guest on the show is and that only the c.e.o. of the russian corporation dealing with nanotechnologies with a country so rich natural resources not only oil and gas but water. timber who will whatever do we need to do the side say things i mean i mean why do does this economy need as far as i know and i know it from the newspapers one of your biggest problems is to introduce high tech to governors like in faraway regions of this country isn't it true they don't want it. actually or there

is a way to steal based upon the oil and yes. there's that option which is existing but that's the option which is just. strongly warble to any kind of the economic downturn and second there's the option which is not. apply option to consume unique resources which is with the economic social human level existing well and thought that the strategy which will bring crushing to the thought of all so that's why to answer to your question. can we leave without it yes but that's something which means they do they should my understanding is that what russia needs is not division but in the way and that's the dilemma the bigger additional innovation where we're here to make overtures. if

you will continue to go this way we call attention cation russia needs quality education many people are talking that there are problems in russia education. when compared to the old soviet system is. participating in developing quality education in this country yes we do and we understand that must. i cannot say and i'm disagree there is no educational system in russia that's wrong if you compare the russian indication system with chaney's with india with brazil in bric countries sits nor the war system at the same time definitely it's not the best in the world in this way we need to adjust the skills of employees in our project to what is demanded by the project itself what exact style of educational project normally at the moment with the new business approach of. the educational

project to educate skilled people to this project when we start to produce in this . region this political immediately simul to know the start of the project to educate team which will be of the employee in this project we have interviewed a number of people on spring flights russian scientists russian young specialists work abroad and who want to come back to work congressional but surprisingly money isn't what they need isn't what they're waiting. do you sam how are you somehow interested in the problem of brain drain and what do you think you need to give people to to drag them back to rich. well i believe the money is important but knowing thing is only important the main thing what is the main thing it wouldn't go experience the main sink is a real option to implementing your ideas to

apply them in the real business process let me give an example we fly in the team of very young people young scientists who left russia. to feel and the ground from the finish go on monday live to a job when they develop some very very sophisticated technology get restructured to produce play to me to. understand the scientific result is very interesting and i suggest them to come back to invest in this business and to start to build a business in russia based on the ideas which was developed by themselves. the political successful was started production of the russian. i mean to its limits which is now the beginning of september in the shops there's the commercial product and the parameter of the technical parameters of this product is on the

level of the best in the wall that's on the level of that's a little of force room and that's an example so when you give the option to implement theoretical n.d.s. to put them in the real practical business that's something which is even more important than just money and i know you would mention the these led lamps these bulbs in the new production because many people say that you mention consumer products so many people say that this these. are the first and the only consumer product today that's manufactured with the help of not a technology rush is a true well it's more of a care for some more examples but that's true that more product is not. she would be new to business. but i will you be working on more and more consumer items things that these things can the can be sold well in local stones in

supermarkets i don't see it as a prayer it's something which reminds me the. group a group b. group a is important will be is not important to me. if there is a consumer business or consumer ordinary people i would support this business of soul this way i wouldn't consider it as a priority you recently showed another product the electronic reader you showed it you introduced it to to the russian prime minister and you said that this is something that may replace. paper books in russian schools that tell us more about it do you think that this really me become products. that will that that will make make or standard famous among schoolchildren. well it's not the whole goal to become famous but they will become official and first i

should say about this project to. feel a huge respect with those with the will of the project the project was developed in cambridge university and up in the company which is located in silicon valley and manufacturing facility in germany but there's the international are based company it was a very we'll based r. and d. support based idea the idea we were the project developed on does the idea of silicon electronics plus to connect one to something which is absolutely new you have to do with nano. really this kind of percent now then build all the but no doubt about it but that's some kind of the new technological way for electronic and . this is so when you say plastic instead of silicone this means that plastic may be a conductor like a semiconductor whatever side of the plastic may be conductive plastic maybe semiconductor and plastic is something which is based which is the materials you

made the whole management technical management of the screen screen was no poll like the additional screen the and i play it all i remember the plastic screen and the plastic semiconductor which just men that the color in this in this screen . the idea of no one sitting on the twenty that's something which make if huge implementation not only the plastic not only to the reader which we're pretty we're going to produce so the idea is so great this why i will spend about. one to in a very very complicated negotiation competing with cheney is who who would like to accept this technology and as a bill fortunately we was able to win this competition and now we're starting the process just to build huge manufacturing facilities in the russia which will

produce of these products second we. we made the request to all partner to two for the product itself to focus the computer itself on the school school consumers school pupil consumers and they did it end of the one you experimental when four russian regions school boys and school girls will start to use this computer instead of was a cool paper textbooks and process number three was taught to create the center which will develop the technology of the plastic to computers you mentioned that this technology is developed in. lint produced by a plastic logic in california what does that of have to do with it to build you paying manufacturing facility which will which will have the big scale production

using it here or in the new thing in the most corner muska building the most cool beeld which will develop the technology so there's that make more maybe in the new not silicon plastic valley in the future of sort of convoy and all that sort of thing that you know that may happen if we speak seriously. there is no exact answer for this could be plastic electronics we convince the market market will accept it i am a strong believer of the huge option for more complete substitution for. developing the silicon plastic electronics and the number of electronic sensors my son does a lot of reading which is strange for a twelve year old today and i try to introduce this reader you know this electronic book which is better than a computer because there's not the light i mean i mean it's but he does like to see . his eyes he prefers paper pay paper books is this

plastic plastic technology any better well sunny thought in or. out of the requirement i should have would have the difference between the normal screen in the screen which we use in our computer into additional classical screen and computer you have. the lights are coming into us in this in the reader we don't have to do that you don't have this reflected light that's right in that they both like on paper this is elizabeth was this ongoing but still his eyes hurt for some reason definitely a little a look at the sort of the same extent to which they may be heard by the paper you already know that's a lot of the same are true of the electronic paper sickle paper of the same effect which is more. here for less war notable less risky for the. people was an especially for children well that's why i. think. if you're speaking of all the consumers in the school thank you thank you very much

mr and just a reminder of if my guest on the show today was on the telly head of the now and the so for now from all of us here spotlight will be back with more comments on what's going on and until then stay on r.t. and take. of the.

same. wealthy british style stuff it's time to. martin. why not. find out what's really happening to the global economy with mike stronger for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines kaiser reports.

this is. the head of. the u.s. senator manias signed a missile defense plants in washington that will allow america to install missile interceptors in the state was on american portion of board a nato defense shield and because of serious disagreement with. the rebel national transitional council of leave the residents of besieged broken down to strongholds to field face full scale a time in the meantime fighting continues in the country as rebels say they've taken a new average by his forces. european countries should stick together to boston economic crisis as german chancellor angela merkel a common market has been feeling other worries about a possible greek default.
