doris naz thank you very much for being with us today thank you very much for having me so in your opinion by has china and still remains to greatest mystery for thinkers and scholars because there's too little interest to get a foot behind the mystery you know something stays a mystery if you don't have enough interest to to open the curtain. there's also you know somebody said that the loss of german philosopher said that most people do not want to learn something new like what look at 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 think exclude myself ten years ago levin 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 willing to change the picture or do you speak with what you think how is it changed ten years are for you well. i was thinking the chinese are mr mysterious people you know you can't really trust them and you never know what they think i felt that the country was not backwards than it turned out to be. the fact is that the chinese have held still have and still today have kind of an innocence and openness 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 talk a lot about 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 does have anything to do with the fact that china's been communist for so long . no no i think it has to do with the with the structure of having the community first and then the individual that meant 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 or they are not ashamed or fairing or we love you and we admire you and it's so sweet that openness i'm not saying that every chinese is 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 they are fighting for. making their dreams come true and the fight is something sometimes a little fear 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 of the nine hundred ninety s. who has not lived through all the hardship and the changes and they really didn't man that they 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

your husband john and i spared 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 make an economic a dreams come true to a certain degree. but then you realize that's not everything 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. not what is really the sense of what's really the meaning of life what can i do that's my life and how can i serve my country that's something that you wouldn't

hear from the rest so much you know how could i serve my country it's much more how can i so how can the country serve me and that search for meaning for spiritual fulfillment that that we can increasingly feel could be that they're searching for self identity creation in twenty first century. there are quite communists but now there are still strong economically they are searching for acknowledgement 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 dare to look at themselves and say well what we did was the right 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 included but the west is very much focusing on the radios and on the flaws and i think we. should have a balance that looked up to their use of lot of good things and of course they have to work on them also seems to think china is striving to be number one country in the world to be this huge super power or is it just happening. i i hesitate because deep inside i think china wants to be the middle kingdom and once you have the procession had 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 but they they are they want to play the role in the world that they are slowly growing into simply syas of

qana may the growing size of qana me and by the number of people so i asked your husband whether china was trying to rebuild calm and empire and be emergent to an imperialist state because if they're not fighting for it but they're fighting for it economically because they're building schools weaker countries. could it be that . three become an empire that dominates the world by growing economic ties with other countries i don't know where the live in the world where you really really really wonder can become a. dominant empire like the roman empire and and all the other empires that follow . i don't think it's in this way also i think that there's quite a ways to go and you know america is a fortune trillion economy and china is still only one zero 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 call the. you know the. when they have. people who stand for and then own most of. which let's say and i'm not very good on the. band 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 well right now china owns about one third of the u.s. or and and the dollar is at

a very vulnerable situation i mean people aren't talking they could devalue future . what is the smartest way out of this impasse for china i think you know economists are correlated or are having different opinions so i really would not claim that i have the answer to that so when the u.s. will hit rock bottom it will also have found a solid ground and then rise because it's not that the capacity of the u.s. is gone the capacity is still there and the chinese are very smart gap to the situation and invest with let's say we can involve that were not so i think they they're going to work it out and they're smart enough to do so also one more question china is more and more assertive and the south china sea do you think china is a country that actually could envisage a conflict. but it wouldn't i mean it's too smart to you can't win wars

anymore so why would china released a rule which would be destructive for trying itself so there's a lot of posturing on the political side economically now it's it's much too much integrated really since the war on either side so no that's posturing there's a lot of. posturing because of internal reasons to show strength towards people but but you know we don't we don't think there's anything china strategies for russia they've been very good friends and they've been not so good friends so i think they are seeking an alliance they are seeking. they are a close neighbors so i think china in general wants to optimize relationships whether it's russia or america or europe for a size that thank you very much for this and take you.

russia were in free scoring night last night as they front and or six nil to qualify for the euro two thousand and twelve championships ireland as a goal grabbing a brace during the ride which saw his side finish on top of me with more is richer than perfect. russia only need the points coming into bank lashawn bora where the whole country was expecting much much more from the competent side a speech will call on what is officially the world's joint worst saeed's. under fifty thousand fans who turned out to watch them didn't have to wait long to prefer scholes islands of glory admitting his second goal in as many games for the national side after only five minutes the hosts are a class above their opponents some would double their lead midway through the half a city cop the slightest of touches under a shot in st keep the russians one finish though only one once won more than

a single goal in this qualification campaign but they were determined to win but run against pandora nice and roman pavlyuchenko made it free on thirty minutes. so it will have continued his rich vein of form the twenty one year old scoring a fine gold on the stroke of half time to take his tally to four for the national scene. unsurprisingly the hosts eased off in the second half hour these crucial call from time to score his first ever goal for his country to make the school five nil. substitute genia believe it do you know it was making a rare appearance confusion to wrangle perhaps for goal of the night here tonight fielder picking the ball up and for round twenty meters on its feet a little time left foot shocks which go to visit his keeper no chance jubilation for the russians unproduced little call you crowned this win with his first had a goal and he was happy to give the fans a performance to savor to the world 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 the. russian dominated every man played in this qualification campaign and igor some show of was delighted by his side nines to win for only the second time in more than one goal in their qualifying group but. it was nice to start finding the back of the net with playing well try out the group like when we drew here with harlem's know no one we lost against slovakia but we weren't able to score but look on our side tonight because the cats first campaign is in the high notes as russia managed to win a qualification group 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 richard reid r.t. moscow. said he was relieved russia did not have to enter the playoffs and revealed

that but now prepare for a friendly but he could decide some clubs have been reluctant in letting their players turn out for the national side. so hopefully the club's owners are happy as well sometimes they have some doubts about it because we can play two friendly matches next game and the worrisome protest from some owners so i don't understand the way they think because i think you 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 we are what really be against we wanted to play a much tougher opposition friendship and playing recently against iraq to run it on their districts the opposition with a severe is really much tougher so we know. already but we still get not get the confirmation tomorrow so i cannot say. so this is how they

finished russia all of ireland who got into the playoffs at the expense of armenia after beating them to a one in dublin they are means hard to keep a sense of in the first off the log and strike at every door god is not you know what it's like on the second yellow card but afterwards arash takes trap a tiny high on his side. i think i saw many games he's one of the best in the group. and then keane technical very well. we can first and put our season the great result. will be only. we believe. the. only. and could no longer play off is this information from our crew. elsewhere france thought great day after a draw against bosnia he needed victory in paris to qualify automatically had given

a visit as the lead there in the first half with a great strike but late on some ministry was brought down and he scored the results and penalty to france a point to send them to the european championships or bosnia and never qualified for a major tournament and the playoffs so let's have a look at all the things that have qualified joining hoshi crane and russia and france in their denmark have made it after beating portugal two one in a winner takes all in canada last night the top group h. was sweden's three two win over the netherlands who'd already qualified and they go through with the best runner up greece put their place in with a two one win over georgia also the defending champions scotland three one yesterday to end scottish playoff hopes germany kept a hundred percent record in group eighteen belgium three one and italy one negri rounding off their campaign with a greener win over northern ireland. teams are in the playoffs and as we mentioned they include ireland and portugal and bosnia plus two sittings to be as

a big yarm one last night stony and made the list courtesy of the venus two one win over serbia in crete see the czechs put their place for the four one win away and you're welcome ray should be glad he is single to go into the hat for thursday's draw along with montenegro despite their two ne disputes and the matches are over two legs and a shared jewel for november the eleven or twelve with a return game on november fifteenth. three more rushers under twenty one team have extended their lead at the top of group six in their battle for a place in the twenty thirteen european championship in israel they being portugal two one to maintain their hundred percent record as constantine pitot. russia had started their qualifying campaign confidently with two wins on the road and a goal difference of plus eight and in their third encounter the russians faced their main group six royal sports' agel on home soil a team game just outside moscow anding eyepiece or is meant to control from the start in the first half a few scoring opportunities there were punished for

a moment of slickness after half an hour wilson in the on the phone himself were actually armored only edge of the box and hammered the ball through the wall and the flailing hands of the goalkeeper to put portugal at halftime however whatever they had coach said the hosts at halftime seemed to work as russia came out even more determined and everything swung the hosts way within just four second half minutes first but oh yeah kind of cross to the four course where alex on the court in headed home the twenty year old forward increasing his telling qualifying to an impressive five goals in three matches and then substitute in fellow dinamo moscow forward the other small of dribble past three defenders to beat the keeper at the knee of course to make it two one after each t four minutes and that's how it finished the home side totally in control and giving to portugal has no chance to equalise. i was a little bit surprised that there was no one in front of the goal when i take

a move so i decided to shoot and i made the right decision. coach said we should play our game in which solid defending would score and win the match and that's how it happened we conceded an awkward goal amounts to come from behind and deserve the win portugal didn't have any scoring opportunities in the second half. rational took nine points from premier shoes well poor little sleep pulled into a good whose name i will. be mouthy for general secretary jerome valcke had been has been on a visit to russia to check on the host nation's progress for the twenty eighteen world cup the tone why not start for another seven years but is just one year to go until russia must name eleven cities and twelve stadiums which will host football's biggest tournament and the country sports minister is confident about russia's preparations say far. russia was given the regular host the world cup we've had

a little millings and consultations with the far only two sticks budgeting branding and other important issues considering the world cup it's quite basically a world cup in either of those cities we stadiums the transport or. local transport i would say national domestic transport between the cities and. then you have to ensure that all these different group of people the media the the officials the players and the fans they can enjoy the country during the period of the world cup but. and away from football goals for my number one tiger woods says he hopes playing a full show jewel next year will see him climb back up the world rankings he's been preparing for this week chevron challenge in los angeles but only just qualified for the event after recently dropping out of the world's top fifty ward says his fall from the top is partly a result of long layoff future health and personal problems he finished thirtieth at last week's prize dot com open his first tournament in two months and missed or

played badly in this year's majors but next season he plans to compete more often i believe that will see him climb the rankings. i have points for on are from the old i. did very very good you had a european wants seven times around the world so all those points are coming off so unfortunate i feel quite a bit i fell fast businesses. are playing which are. not going to come off so i can start building and that is all the support for the moment we've got the weather coming up next.
