think so you would think that two centuries later in the twenty first century because we 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 but they're of course a very direct comparison says the danger of playing but let me first say that the overall concept of the feeling of the necessity to preserve culture. of course it's an old one but at the same time we need to have you know reading and meaning so i believe we are very successful on the whole of course you mentioned something. very important from that approach in the plea we see conflicts or we see internal us try. we see wars and very often. such monuments which are on the will carry least or even

important monuments which are not to zip around the world here with the chinese are being affected by their destroyed or damaged or there are some disputes and of course it's only deplorable that this is happening now or to really want to accentuate all the b. i just because it's on everybody's mind right now do you know if you ask the sites there have been damaged or bombed from the very first a sample size of this of the conflict i have raunch appeals to all the involved parties. i have spoken to. them that try nato i care spoken also to the to the levy and so i have appealed to the libyan people. to preserve this monument you know after the i hold of the conflict who the same the commission there but there is another respect also in so treat such cases which i think is important

apart from that meeting among humans. as an aftermath of such a conflict it's another tendencies emerging and another i would say very unfortunate it's mostly i will get to that later but i really want to ask you. after something like this happens one joint a conflict and cultural heritage is destroyed or damaged does anyone answer for that is i don't persecute for that afterwards i came to say that situations have very different. situations for example in some of the african countries affected by conflict let me take could give you another example of a similar case but rather from some of the mystic point of view of domestic social strife or civil war in fact and this is the democratic republic of congo where we have four they chill parks we try to describe the world heritage listing in fact

they represent an incredible important also. means of securing a bio diversity and play a huge troll in the climate change. there even after and i'm talking particularly of the view i'm going to show in the park which you see in the east part of the country where most of the violence and civil war raged in the now i hold the situation is of course improving and we could be in the peeling there for a long time for the government when i say we. i mean the world heritage committee and also me as the rector general of the government will take a great measure and i'll find these january together with the prime minister at the very bottom conference in kinshasa we drafted to try and plan for preserving of safeguarding this important part of the goal the concrete measures of doing decreasing by one set for. educating some of the war yes

they're participating in their educating them and giving them the feeling that preserving it's very important that they support their own interests betray interests to reintegrate them in society it's a very complex issue that's why i say that to situations that differ and i know that you and you must go in general always appeals to protect the cultural heritage different countries but just organisation actually has to mean its or the arsenal to do it to protect it we don't have we have not because we don't have a book casks or something like that but in very many cases of similar cases and the discipline to go i let me just mention haiti because it's a different there but it's once again and it's still a disaster people ready worse effect on the world heritage we work with the partners they are on the few. who are in fact in trust to be

practical day to day with a business of persecuting. the order and direct instruction of a particular country you've mentioned another huge problem which is smuggling antiquities now some estimates have it that the turnover from smuggling antiquities is almost as big as traffic trafficking human trafficking and arson arms sales is that really the case you're entirely right that the trafficking good for objects of . approaching the thing nowadays equals the traffic you for human beings. drax and it's a very alarming new tendency in situation that we're seeing all over the world. and that's why we are very much committed to a tool strengthening the international cooperation through the one nine hundred seventy my school convention on the prohibiting of illicit trafficking of cultural objects it's important to secure more ratifications to this convention nowadays we

have more than one hundred twenty countries that have adhere to this convention and there are positive tendencies in the international corporation these last years some of the countries that represent the biggest markets open or cultural objects like belgium and the netherlands so have read to create 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 a corporation in terms of capacity be we think of sense the same sensitizing the public opinion all the stakeholders we work with the of course we've been proposed with the international customs union and i believe that encouraging the international cooperation of of countries by concrete examples of returning

such objects of. i think for also personally assisted a very moving ceremony when kennedy returned to my country of origin forget it twenty one thousand objects he said exported from the country to canada and this return this corporation was based on ninety seven theoretical conventional there was no other legal way or for doing it while you sat that major auction houses have been very responsive to your appeal question remains who are the smugglers and why . those 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 take organized and there are always people on both sides of all this who are doing that the important thing is all the countries. of origin have the means and the knowledge

and the capacity to curb the smuggling in on the other side also ethics took of the moral norms also all of the different departments to do it or not to do it in fact we have done that we have. drafted i called the vote picks for the trip for the a trade that for cultural goods i think this is very important that it's taken on board by all the different and then of course the national registration for people respected. introduction of norms international legislations sold that then so it's not going to suffer security impunity in this case is a very bad signal if you think there's a connection between arms sales drug taking and smuggling and she quit he's well. i think yes we have read their lisey's and reports and of course because these are

big money as you said and. very valuable 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 it could be used to finance new wars for instance yes i mean like all the legal out there 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. deprives the whole country is of their heritage it deprives people of but their rates tend to it after all they have wrought from their identity need i would say a long term perspective on the feelings and culture in these contexts you can crawl away. tracks you can scroll a web presence somewhere but you can't read and what is lost in terms of

heritage and of culture you can. find to stop security by something called base context thank you very much for this interview thank you also for this interest.

out of this one which won't even be on the bench. with under the hostile and australian born out of the ones will win his first point count for the russians as the car has been hampered by injuries since the team arrived in new zealand over sale not could play a part as remain two games and burns who is not a hails from russia was delighted to start for his not optimization. play international rugby playing in a world cup it's been a love long dream. because we often feel that we're coming out of being. disregarded changes. but i do hope russia is much like a man in place in the architecture so was russia's next door match thing off against italy on cheese day probably a swig of our last thursday off since arriving in new zealand two weeks ago and which i found took the chance to join some of the squad on the fishing trip. it's been a hard slog for russia's players so far at the rugby world cup training session followed

medical and austria's florian pregnant the thirty six year old was in search of with third challenge to a win on the final day which would secure him a place in the on board and top twenty and a card to return to the european tour and a londoner in next five birdies in two bodies on the front nine to extend his lead meanwhile well as compared to a down to johnston who was fourth before the final round there to put some pressure on the leader with a needle only fifteen in the long buried but on the eighteenth challenge to our johnston was trailing to a little bit just a stroke. and little had to make at least point on the last hole to secure a victory but he made no mistake and would do what's finished recording round with a sixty eight to collect a check for forty thousand euros extremely happy i played really well this weekend . i really enjoyed some fantastic venue. to come back again and.

it's a fantastic place and i'm delighted the way plays well. for under so they are not bad in a shelf or under suffer plater or well despite a poor performance on the final day and if we would still manage to increase his overall lead at the top of the rankings with five events still to go and top twenty finishes still up for grabs for those old boring cards on the european tour thing but out of our team. and it's all sports news i think.
