a national headlines tune in to cause a report. in the. past the hour here with your headlines now washington has charged two iranians for an alleged plot to kill the saudi arabian ambassador to the u.s. it's claimed they tried to hire members of a mexican drug cartel to carry out yet all of these accusations tehran dismissed as being. an israeli soldier captured by hamas five years ago could soon be coming home along the way to deal will see him swap over a thousand palestinian prisoners however some high profile detainees will remain in israeli jails. and that russia and china strengthen their partnership to balance

out the economic and political dominance of the west bank deals worth of some seven billion u.s. dollars in energy trade and high tech industries have all been sign of prime minister putin met the trying to leadership beijing. now even in the twenty first century china remains a mystery to much of the outside world sees sophie shevardnadze analysis down with doris nice bit of the doris and has been center and she's also written a book on china and now what tells us what lies behind the enigmatic nation's history. 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 the greatest mystery for thinkers and scholars because there's too little interest to get to get behind the mystery and how something stays a mystery if you don't have enough interest to to open the curtain. there's also you know somebody said the philosopher german philosopher said that most people do not want to learn something new but want 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 all 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 and but then it depends on i do willing to change the picture or do you stick 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 thought that the country was much more backwards then it turned out to be. the fact is that the chinese. have spilt half and still today have kind of an innocence and also unless 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 trying to use politicians we talk about of things in china that are not as they should be. you can be very open but it has to come out of a positive spirit. and not of just looking for the negative spots while you're talking about innocence where does that come from in your theory and does it 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 were always part of something you were part of a family 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 of 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 that can be very very. fierce fighting but in general they are willing to embrace you and talk about their feelings so if china socialist or a capitalist their fight. for. 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 lift the life they wanted and now specially for the generation that's one nine hundred ninety s. who has not lived through all the hard shift and the changes. they really mean 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 well not with communication systems with western get 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 rice that 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 the economic dreams come true to a certain degree. then you realize 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 rest so much you know how could i served my country it's much more how can i so 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 cation in twenty first century. their upright communist but now they're so strong economically they're searching for acknowledgement for a position in the world they can not have enough self-confidence including the china as a as a country they have achieved so much but but they don't really. look at themselves and say well what we did prize right i don't know maybe because they are attacked much more than then acknowledged and it's not that everything is great in china lots of things that we don't agree with. but the west is very much focusing on the players and on the flaws and i think we. should have a balanced approach there is

a lot of good things and of course they have to work on the not so things you think china is striving to be number one country in the world to be this huge superpower or is of just happening. i i hesitated because he'd been side i think china wants to be the middle kingdom and wants to have the position that it wants head that's in the in the in the you know the history of china has 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 a role in the world that they are slowly growing into simply syas of condemnable growing size of the economy and by the number of people say i asked your husband whether china was trying to read become an empire and be emergent or incur

a list stay 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 wonder can become a. dominant empire likely roman empire and all the other empires the 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 fortune trillion economy and china is still only one sort of one fourth of it so there's a ways to go and also you know think of the role that the u.s. placed 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 peak the. you know the. when they have. people who stand for a man then for their own. which let's say and i'm not very good around the pop band so you know what i mean they they have to create that 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. for intact and the dollar is at a very vulnerable situation i mean people are even talking they could devalue their future. what is the smartest way out of this impasse for china i think you know

economists are quarreling 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 to the situation and invest with let's say weakening dollar or 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 in the south china sea 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 to you can't win worse anymore so why would trying to really start a war which would be destructive for china itself so while there is

a lot of posturing on the political side economically you know it's it's much too much integrated release the work on either side so no that's posturing there's 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 on they've been not so good friends so i think they are seeking an alliance they are seeking trade but now they are very close on a bus so i think china in general wants to optimize relationships whether it's russia or america or europe taurus nies but thank you very much for this and take you.

leadership in beijing. right time now for sports. thank you for joining me for the latest sports news and views what's coming up. six of the best aliza guy i've met some braces russia cruising to next summer's european football championships after a six mil drubbing pandora came in moscow. while bearing the blame the man your village ponders which moments after missing a clenched penalty was that the one zero defeat to slovenia invoking european qualifiers. and spanish domination doubly fair and one calls for a line up a meeting with each other as china will be sung or crushes us to shanghai last has . to start with football and russia have finished their european qualifying campaign in style after going through to next year's finals as well as

a i beat england or us six here in moscow and watching was pretty powerful from. russia only meet the points coming into vamp lashawn dura but the whole country was expecting much much more from the accomplishment signed a spatial core and what is appreciably the world's joint worst showing it. under fifty thousand fans who turned out to watch them didn't have to wait long the first goal mccallum's avoid meeting his second goal in as many games for the national side after only five minutes the hosts were a class above their opponents some would double barely midway through the half a cigarette not shooting up the slightest of touches to undo your shot in st cake the russians won finished oh good only one ones by more than a single goal in this qualification campaign but they were determined to win but run against graham dorrans from vermont public change limited free on thirty minutes. took wife 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 was a call from time to score his first ever goal for his country to make this call five nil from substitute junior billiard do you know who was making a rare appearance countries of the ranking perhaps for goal of the night here too in the field or picking the ball up from round twenty meters on its head a little time left foot shocks which gave the visitors keeper no chance jubilation to russians unproduced we should call you crying this when with his first had a goal and he was happy to give the fans a performance to savor to the world with 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 every man should be

played in this qualification campaign and igor some show was delighted that his side managed to win for only the second time by more than one goal in their qualifying group but. it was nice to start finding the back of the net we've played well throughout the group like when we drew here with garlands no no when we lost against slovakia we weren't able to score but look who's on our side tonight. casper's campaigners ended in liner notes as russia managed to win a qualification read for the first time in a decade but now the hard work starts with the dutchman was around eight months to prepare his side for the euro two thousand and twelve finals in poland and ukraine is much of a weekly dancey moscow. well after is the cow because said he was relieved russia didn't have to enter the playoffs and revealed the team would not prepare for a friendly but he criticised some tribes for being reluctant and letting their players turn out for the national side. so hopefully

the owners are happy as well sometimes i have some doubts about it because we can play two for the match next game in the world. so i don't understand the way they think because i think they have to think about was low because that's very important so we are willing to think about the gloves well so we only play one game and hopefully don't they are what really be against the c.b. wanted to play a much tougher position friendship with playing recently against want to run it on their districts but opposition with a savior is going to much tougher so we know. already but we still get confirmation tomorrow so i can fall to. so after a lot of this is how the group be finished russia followed by ireland's you go into the playoffs at the expense of all media to be for them to watch you don't like the

armenians had that he sent off in the first half i'll instruct kevin doyle also received is not in order to lace on for a second yellow card despite this outing budget your money hale despite the treatment. i think i see so many games he's one of the best in the group who are in there with him. they can call very well. weekly first. in for the i.c.c. very great result. always really. we believe. only if the fifty percent because no good player is the same as intuition for twenty five but i'll swear france top group d. offer a one one draw against bosnia needed victory in paris to qualify automatically reject and have given the visit is the lead in the first off with a great strike but late on sunday another three was brought down in the box.

score the resulting penalty to and france the necessary points to send them to the european championships help bosnia never qualify for a major tournament and into the playoffs. that much to united kept in the money of it it has hinted he could soon be calling it a day on his international career the twenty nine year old serbia to spend that is taking full responsibility for missing what could have been a life saving second hostility for his country the serbians needed to witness the vignette to be for august lonia into second spot in group c. but on the stroke of off time conceded that cracking goal i got a kick it so his illegal strike on the spot saved the service qualifying hopes dashed. so let's round up all the teams that have qualified to join in high esteem great in poland are russia and france england were already that denmark austria live on beating portugal two

one in a winner takes all in time because the top group eight ball sweden stretes over the netherlands food already qualified and they go through as the best runners up greece booked their place after coming back to beat georgia to want already there were defending champion spain who beat scotland three want to end their playoff hopes in favor of the czechs germany finished with a one hundred percent record at the top with three paid by the belgian three one and see when is he to be rounded up that campaign with a screen when things are going all the islands. well eight teams will go into the playoffs as well as island portugal and also in pasadena just getting started here also they are the region as the guys on long will the study of made it courtesy got one nil win for slovenia over serbia the czechs took their place with a full on green in the few ania croatia latvia to deal to go through along with montenegro despite their two year old to switzerland the draw for the playoffs will take place on thursday and the eight sides are divided into two thoughts containing

four cds and fought on seeded teams on the ground how they all compared the end of the group stage the first leg of the playoffs all shared was when they got to the eleventh or twelfth and the second legs on november the fifteenth. going in the meantime russia's under twenty one team maintains that a one hundred percent record by beating portugal two one here in moscow to extend their lead at the top of group six and then battle for a place at the twenty thirteen european championships but israel doesn't think reports. 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 russian space their main group six trials were to go on home soil a team kit just outside moscow and legality syria's man to control from the start in a first half a few scoring opportunities their work punished for a moment of slickness after half an hour wilson and two on the phone himself or two

am mark on the edge of the box and hammered the ball through the wall and the flailing hands of the goalkeeper to cool portugal as half time however whatever they had coached said the hosts a tough time seemed to work as russia came out even more determined and everything swung the hosts way with him just for second half minutes first but only a 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 dilemma moscow for the other smaller group of plus three defenders to beat the keeper at the knee of course to make it to one off to fifty four minutes and that's how it finished the home side to feel in control and giving the board yes no chance to equalise and all i was a little bit surprised that there was no one in front of the goal when i make the move so i decided to shoot and i made the right decision going and i had told simply should play our game on

a solid defending real score and win the match and that's how it happened we conceived as an awkward goal amounts to come from behind and deserved the win didn't have any scoring opportunities in the second half. rushing i took to do it and i'm always been free well you should be pulled into kid is a bit over thirty. and after all that football tennis now and wimbledon semifinalist joe wilfried tsonga has become the biggest name so far to fall of the shanghai masters the fourth seeded frenchman bowing out to japan skate and she corrie well it was a tight something else song that did save a couple of match points with aces only to hit back on long complex crashing out in three sets with the get saunders charge of the pipelines the a.t.p. trial finals in london next month i was third seed david ferrer is safely through the spaniard you can kind of this play on each man's next up affair is compassionate and calls for a dozen times yet another spine is going on but that's code for while the want to

battle back after conceding the opening set that's dominated from then on breaking his opponent six times to win three in just over two hours four six six three six two on the score in this one. and that's all the sport for the splits in those more in just under two hours. well. bringing you the latest in science and technology from the realms. we've got the future.
