8:32 am
tonight well over two centuries ago george byron reflected on athens looting there you would think that two centuries later and twenty first century as it is with think we're more civilized things are better but are they really better for instance in egypt or libya i would say definitely much much better of course a very direct comparison says the danger of thing but let me first say that the overall concept the feeling of the necessity to preserve precarious culture. of course it's an old one but at the same time if you need to have you know reading and meaning so i believe we are very successful on the whole of course you mentioned something. very hard from their approach unlikely we see conflicts or we see internal us try. we see
8:33 am
a war and very often. such monuments which are on the will carry east or even important monuments which are not as yet on the world heritage are being affected by the destroyed or damaged or there are some disputes and of course it's it's only deplorable that this is happening in our case we really want to accentuate alleviate just because it's on everybody's mind right now do you know this can you ask the sides there have been damaged cold bombs from the very first a man for size this of the conflict i have raunch put peals to all the involved parties. i have spoken. then that to an aide to a wife has spoken also to be to believe me and so i could have appealed to the libyan people. to preserve this monument you know after the i hold the main one tenth of the conflict we will be sending
8:34 am
a mission there but there is another aspect also in situ in such cases which i think is important then apart from then reaching a monuments. as an aftermath of such a conflict it's another tendencies emerging and another i would say very unfortunate it's my view i will get to that later but i really want to ask you. after something like this happens one georgia call flaked cultural heritage is destroyed or damaged does anyone answer for that sentiment persecuted for that afterwards i can't say that situations have very different. situations for example in some of the african countries affected by conflict let me take could give you a lot of an example of a similar case but rather from some of the mystic point of view of domestic social strife or super war in fact and this is the democratic republic of congo where we
8:35 am
have for their child parts which i described on the world harry peachey stand in fact they represent an incredible important goal sole. means of securing a badly burned city and play a huge role in the climate change. they're even after and i'm talking particularly of the view we're going to show in the park a week you see in the east part of the country where most of the violence and civil war was waged and so now i hold the situation is of course improving we could be an appealing career for a long time for the government when i say we. i mean the world heritage committee and also me is there at the general to the government who are take concrete measures and i'll find these change very together with the prime minister at the very important them conference in kinshasa we drafted the joint plan for preserving safeguarding this important part of the goal the concrete measures of doing
8:36 am
decreasing violence or for. educating some of the warriors who are there a pretty sick rating going back to educating them and giving them the feeling that preserving it's very important the piece for their own interests to train interest to reintegrate them in society it's a very complex issue that's why i say the two situations have deeper and i know that you went to school in general always appeals to protect the cultural heritage different countries but just serving as asian actually has its means or the arsenal to do it to protect it we don't have we are not because we don't capable casks or something like that but in very many cases similar cases and in this particular i let me just mention haiti because it's a different there but it's once again a natural disaster of people ready or worse effect upon the world heritage we work
8:37 am
with the partners there on the few. who are in fact in trusting we'd be a practical day to day i would say business of police securing. the order and the record structure in the particular country you've mentioned another huge problem which is smuggling and tikrit it's now some estimates have it that the turnover from smuggling antiquities is almost as big as track trafficking human trafficking and arson arms sales is that really the case that you're entirely right that the trafficking good for objects of. unfortunately nowadays he calls the traffic you push him and being so. drax and it's a very alarming new tendency in the situation that we're seeing all over the world . and that's why we're very much committed to tool strengthening international cooperation through the one nine hundred seventy and they're still convention on the prohibiting of illicit trafficking of cultural objects it's important to secure
8:38 am
more education to this convention nowadays we have more than one country plenty of countries that have it here to this convention and there are positive tendencies in the international corporation these last two years some of the countries that represent the biggest markets open or cultural objects like belgium and the netherlands that have ready to fight the convention literally a year ago we are cooperating with the. new also phenomenon with some of the because. i personally visited recently the headquarters of. christie's and we decided to start the corporation in terms of. basically building of sense a sense sensitizing the public opinion all the stakeholders we work with the of course with the interpol the international customs union and i believe that
8:39 am
encouraging the international co-operation them of countries by concrete examples of returning said objects of of our. i think it falls so personally assisted a very moving ceremony when kennedy returned to my country of origin forget it twenty one thousand objects exported from the country to canada and this return this corporation was based on ninety seventeen ask a question there was no other legal rare for doing it well you know that major auction houses have been very responsive to your appeal question remains who are the smugglers and where. people who buy those objects well i mean the smugglers are . the same so out of this a smuggler said i'm doing the smuggling of arms. for human beings and otherwise unfortunately all the illegal trafficking is the most i would say called allies stand but there are always people on both sides of the wrong who are doing that but
8:40 am
the important thing is called the countries. of origin to have the means and the only and the capacity to curb this smuggling and on the other side also the ethics of the moral norms also all of the different departments to do it and not to do it in fact we have done that we have. drafted a called the vet fix for the trip for the a trade that for cultural groups i think this is very important that it's taken on board by all the different and then of course the national registration to have the respective. introduction of norms international legislations solve that then so it's not going to suffer security impunity in this case is a very bad signal to think there's a connection between arms sales to king and smuggling antiquities well.
8:41 am
i think yes we have read every season of reports and of course because these are a big money as you said ten. thirty value of gold things and as long as there is such an interest in bets that there might be only yes what do you think is the money from sales use for actually be used to finance new wars for instance yes i mean like all the legal smuggling it's corruption. of course it's also conflicts it's it's horse it's all different kinds of illegal activity yes but what is most important is the. deprives whole countries of the heritage it deprives people of for their great tend to take it after all they they they are all from their identity need i would say a long term perspective on the feelings and culture in these contests.
8:42 am

8:52 am
a picturesque region of madra top of the south island was. a number of the players took up the opportunity to go on a fishing trip and the props a gaping hole it sailed into the united states last time outs it was just a relief to get out of the hotel environment. well it's already annoying having to steam the hotel along the routes if you like you look on live t.v. there is no into demons in the hotel and it's nice to feast and to calm nerves adam burns russians a lot of qualified to play for the bears for his grandmother who is russian was more successful than most unlike his colleague in the packs he could have been happier being out in the great outdoors but i was you go girl it's called a merry chief never seen one before obviously if you seal and fish. got out of your design well apparently we're having for lunch now in the buggy so we'll see what
8:53 am
the qualities are if it's of its will you know i said. so you've got a fisherman. love it being a stray. it's a passion that we've. we share and. like being on the water and generally fishing is one thing that comes naturally to me. but food was a welcome change for the players who'd been used to the same diet for the last three months what it's called members even got to eat some of the things they call it's all that none burns can have quite a promising career as a fisherman if he ever decides to give out rugby when he retires the local crew were on hand to teach those players who were less uncomfortable with a rod in their hands how of of he needed no introduction to the shuttle bus that i like to fish but i do not often get the chance in russia but when i have free time i'm patient there was to be one last treat for the play is the thrill of catching their own dinner was not enough not to sound as homes were large part of dolphins
8:54 am
seem to take great interest in the russian boats much to play as the lights. well there's been varying degrees assess amongst our players in terms of how many fish bad managed to catch but most important thing it's been a wonderful relaxation great players as it takes their minds off iraq world cup one of our senior parts of new zealand but nevertheless attention will now turn chooses match against italy or the team will start training in earnest on monday richard wolffe lead r.t. picked in new zealand. finally efforts are being made to ensure the junior ice hockey tugwell cup returns to the russian city of on sticks him on all star squad from the american. league one same time to siberia. it's. before coming to russia for the in the old girl junior club world cup these guys
8:55 am
had never experienced international i saw there were eight teams from just as many countries and the tournaments that e.j. h.e.l. all-star squad representing the united states you know hockey is one of the few sports studies is truly worldwide and in a sport that the united states does not dominate in which most of our professional sports are majority american born players but hockey is one where they have to compete with players from all over the world so for have them have the experience to the common and see how they match up against some of the best for around the world is is outstanding well the russian fans were dreaming of a final that would involve their team against the canadians then merican select and their own agenda asser willing to games against teams from latvia and slovakia the juniors from the states found themselves to be among the favorites to reach the final run them over three on the russians are a lot of strain on russia. i think we feel pretty good about what we're doing right
8:56 am
now our concern earlier where we were we are it's starting to come together the boys are starting to gel you know we're going better every theory and so we're looking forward to friday night saturday in their way of the final on friday was the red army title holders of the n.h.l. which is a european junior league originally founded in russia but now encompasses six countries that sask proved to be a near impossible affair for the visitors and there were at least a couple of reasons for that firstly the russians were by far the. your experience on the international scene with scenes ross are both in a couple of under twenty world champions and secondly the local site had a huge advantage with nine thousand fans cheering on the red army our guys never played in front of a crowd like that let alone a crowd that was certainly not on our side which is awesome you know it's a again it's the luck of the saying every day this was an experience that our guys will never forget and they certainly won't know the russia us decider ended in
8:57 am
favor of the home see which went on to win the inside sentiments though then there can still to go all the way they and the rest of the visiting clubs gates invaluable experience here in siberia it's exciting when the same teams all year long it's great you know here in a place of national i've never played history experience for me personally and all i have to say my so really excited for and i will be writing the i.i.h.f. when i return back to the states to let them know that myself and usa hockey would be tremendous supporters of this event continuing to go on and certainly one bury my heart if it was their enormous cover here because we've just had an unbelievable time well hopefully the international ice hockey federation will soon find a permanent place on its canons are for these huge events and more countries will join but for now say bierria is gearing up to host the next junior ice hockey club world cup ramon calls for an r.c. bombs. and that's all this post nice i think so.
