well back here with our z. here's a look at the top stories the u.s. charges two reins with allegedly plotting to kill the saudi arabian ambassador to washington as part of a major terror attack american officials say they're committed to holding iran accountable but iran rejects the accusations calling them a joe. boss in israel strike a long awaited prisoner swap deal that will see george told her gilad shalit freed in exchange for over a thousand palestinians shall leave as held captive for five years. the russian premier is meeting the chinese leader in beijing on a visit to swap gratian balance out of financial and political dominance of the

west on a first day by the reporting reached a set of important remits on energy prices. the ancient history and close culture of china remains a mystery to much of the outside world r.t. so sure enough he speaks with dorie sneeze but author and the rather of the china institute and attention to find out what lies behind the attic matzos on. doris night thank you very much for being with us today thank you very much for having me so in your opinion why has china and still remains to greatest mystery for thinkers and scholars because there's too little interest to get a touch behind the mystery in all something stays a mystery if you don't have enough interest to to open the curtain. there's also

you know somebody said philosopher sherman philosopher said that most people do not want to learn something new but what to get confirmation of something they already believe in and i think that's very much the case in china we have a certain picture of china and i wouldn't exclude myself ten years ago or eleven years ago before i went to china for the first time i had a certain picture of china which was not really matching reality but then it depends on i do willing to change the picture or do you speak with working seeing how has it changed ten years on for you well. i was thinking the chinese are missed mysterious people you know you can't really trust spam and you never know what they think i thought that the country was much more backwards than it turned

out to be. the fact is that the chinese have helped still have and still today have kind of an in a sense an old friend ness once they trust you they embrace you and they really become friends with you and you can criticize a lot you know you can also was chinese politicians we talked a lot of things in china that are not as they should be. you can be very open but it has to come out of the positive spirit. and not of just looking for the negative spots well you talk about innocence where does that come from north korea and this it had anything to do with the fact that china's been communist for so long. no no i think it has to do with the structure of having the community first and then the individual that went you will always part of something you were part of a family part of a community part of a city part of

a province and the country and helping each other being together was part of survival and that's that's when they when you get to know the chinese and when they embrace so they are not ashamed of having all we love you and we admire you and and it's so sweet that openness i'm not saying that every chinese are sweet there is a lot of competition there can be very very. fierce fighting but in general they are willing to embrace you and talk about their feelings so is china socialist or capitalist gaffe. or. making their dreams come true and the fight is something sometimes a little fierce because for a long time they couldn't make their dreams come true they couldn't live the life they wanted and now specially for the generation that's one and the nine hundred

ninety s. who has not lived through all the hard shifts and changes. they really the man. can do whatever they want to do and that's going to be a new situation in china with a generation that has grown up with communication systems with western bit information about everything that you can achieve in life and they're going to fight for achieving they have goals they want to they want to be the best for your husband john and i split argues that china is a country without ideology do you agree with that it doesn't have any it's in. search for an ideology and i would replace the word there's a lot of search for meaning because. when you are starving making an income that's enough you know you don't need any other goals but once you have your

basic income once you can make konami dreams come true to a certain degree. then you realise that's not everything in life and i have a column in china you stated the second largest newspaper and i get a lot of emails in reaction to the column and many of the questions are. you know what is really the sense of what's really the meaning of life what can i do with my life and how can i serve my country that's something that you wouldn't hear from the west so much you know how could i serve my country it's much more how can i serve how can the country serve me and that search for meaning for spirit of fulfillment that that we can increasingly feel could be that they're searching for self identity creation in the twenty first century. there are quite communists but now there are still strong economically very searching for acknowledgment for

a position in the world they do not have enough self-confidence including the china as a as a country they have achieved so much but they don't really care to look at themselves and say well what we did why is the way i don't know maybe because they are attacked much more than acknowledged and it's not that everything is great in china lots of things that we don't disagree with that we need to be improved but the west is very much focusing on the failures and on the flaws and i think we. should have a balance that. they survive of good things and of course they have to work on the not so things do you think china is striving to be number one country in the world to retrieve this huge superpower or is it just happening. i i

hesitate because people inside i think china wants to be the middle kingdom and once you have to pull session at it once head that's in the in the in the you know the history of china as really an empire is not out of the chinese head but they are not fighting to dominate the world. they they want to play the role in the world that they are slowly growing into simply. kaname the growing size of the economy and by the number of people say i asked your husband whether china was trying to really become an empire and be emerging to an imperialist state because if they're not fighting for it but they're fighting for it economically because they're building ties with weaker countries. could it be that they will be become an empire that dominates the world i growing economic ties

with other countries i don't know whether we're live in the world where you really really one nation can become a. dominant empire like the well known empire and and all the other and pious and fall of. i don't think it's in this way and also i think that there's quite a ways to go and you know america is a fourteen trillion economy and china is still only one set of one fourth of it so there's a ways to go and also you know think of the role that the u.s. plays culturally i mean the influence that louis has in the culture of the globe is a much higher one. and i think that's one of the things that china is really really has to establish what is its cultural identity in the twenty first century and when we have a chinese armani when they do not copy. or are you

know the cha when they have only people who stand for and then their own. which let's say and i'm not very good on the. pan so but you know what i mean they they have to create the chinese brand the cultural leadership that still is in the hand of the u.s. in many ways but right now in china owns about one third of the u.s. for an hour and the dollar is at a very vulnerable situation i mean people are even talking they could devalue future. what is the smartest way out of this impasse for china i think you know economists are quarreling or having different opinions so i really would not claim that i have the answer to that it will also have found a solid ground and then rise because it's not that the capacity of the u.s.

is gone because passably is still there and the chinese are very smart to get through the situation and invest with let's say we can invite all or not so i think they they're going to work it out in the smart enough to do so so one more question china is more and more assertive in the south china sea if you think china is a country that actually could envisage a conflict now it's a book but it wouldn't i mean it's too smart you can't win worse any more so why would china really start a war which would be destructive for china itself so while there is a lot of. posturing on the political side economically now it's it's much too much integrated to start a war on either side so no the us posturing there is a lot of. posturing because of internal reasons to show strength to its people

but but you know we don't we don't think that's quite a thing china strategies for russia they've been very good friends and they are not so good friends i think they are seeking an alliance they are seeking right but very close neighbors so i think china in general wants to optimize relationships whether it's russia or america or europe doris nies but thank you very much for this and tracheal. pleasure is that so much. which of course you want to hear that is calling with you with a major political defeat point for woodstock without music in respect to the occupy wall street demonstrations continue to. be.

european championships next summer yeah they did they did it with ease in the end with a very one sided victory over the door i've. done some show results elsewhere in the second. hello there you're watching the sport here in r.t. and this is what is coming up over the next few minutes six of the best russia qualify for next summer's european championships after sticking half a dozen goals past on dora. while france great past was yet to reach the finals as denmark stunned portugal to put their place. on park easy when the injury hit rugby squad welcomes reinforcements ahead of their world cup semifinal for the strikers. now russia have put their place in the euro two thousand and twelve championships

after a thumping six now when i banned or in moscow the hosts did the damage in the first half as they scored four with alan does inquire of grabbing a brace and then added a couple more after the break watching it richard paul flicked. russia only needs the points coming into their clash of endora of the whole country was expecting much much more from dick advocaat side of spades or call in what is officially the world's joint worst sign eight. hundred fifty thousand fans who turned out to watch them didn't have to wait long for the first goal collins avoid letting his second goal in as many games for the national side after only five minutes the hosts were a class above their opponents and would double barely midway through the hearth a city called the slightest of touches to undergo a shot in st cake the russians one fish toe but only one ones by more than a single goal in this qualification campaign but they were determined when that run

against van doren is and among party change limited free on thirty minutes to go if continued his rich vein of form the twenty one year old scoring a fine goal on the stroke of half time to take his tally to fourth of the national scene. unsurprisingly the hosts eased off in the second half however these were should call fun time to score his first have a goal for his country today to score five mail from substitute junior believe it was making a rare appearance countries of a rival perhaps with goal of the knights here to on the field or picking the ball up for round twenty meters that have little time left foot shocks which paid a visit as keeper no chance jubilation for the russians on the genie's crucial call thank you crown this win with his first set a goal and he was happy to give the fans a performance to savor. and everyone is over the moon at the moment we played really well today and it's nice to give the fans something to cheer about a lot of supporters came out to cheer us on today and the coach said it was time we

started scoring more goals for them. russia had dominated everyone played in this qualification campaign and igor some show of was delighted but his signs to win for only to second time one more home. on goal in their qualifying group. but it was nice to start finding the back of the net we've played well in throughout the group like when we drew here with harlem's nil nil when we lost against slovakia but we weren't able to score but look on our side tonight. first campaign is in the final as russia managed to win the qualification grid for the first time in a decade but now the hard work starts with the dutchman was around eight months to prepare his side of euro two thousand and twelve finals in poland and ukraine which are completely don't see. well afterwards take up the car said he was relieved russia did not have to enter the pile and revealed the team would not prepare for a friendly but he criticised some clubs for being reluctant and letting their place

turn out for the national side. is that. so hopefully the owners are happy as well sometimes there are some doubts about it because we can play two for the next game in the world to some protests from some owners so i don't understand that was the way they think because i think they have to think about well because it's very important so we are willing to think about the clubs well so we only play one one game and hopefully don't they are happy but fairly be against a perceived he wanted to play a much tougher opposition friends you could bring recently against the likes of iran caetano districts of em but the opposition we face of year is going to much tougher so. we still get the call from asians more so i can so forth a good business knows an opponent. well so this is how great things finish brush itself followed by oh i didn't even go into the playoffs the expense of armenia

after beijing and she won in dublin proper tiny underlining as things are changing . i think. many games this one the best in the group. and then. we can be first and put r.c. said it is a great resume blows me. we believe. only . because you know your play off is the situation from our colleague who flies. elsewhere france top group d. after a draw against bolton who need victory in paris paris to qualify automatically adding jacko had given the business is the lead in the first half with a great strike but later on samir nasri was brought down and he scored the resulting penalty in france a point to send them to the european championships well personally i would never
