signs of change in the face of a civil war syria's president promises a new constitution as the number killed in the drawn out conflict exceeds recounts . and has covered earlier in the broadcast prime minister vladimir putin's visit to beijing saw some massive deals signed off for social washer doris nesbitt it's no surprise that she tells r.t. about the long standing relationship between russia and china. 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 of what's 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 that the loss of german philosopher said that most people do not want to learn something new but 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 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 you willing to change the picture or do you stick with what you think how is it changed ten years on for you well. i was thinking the chinese are missed me mysterious people you know you can't really trust them and you never know

what they think i thought that the country was much not backwards than it turned out to be. the fact is that the chinese have held still healthy 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 with chinese politicians we talk 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 a positive spirit. and not of just looking for the negative spots could you talk about innocence where does that come from your thread in this it had anything to do with the fact that china has been communist for so long. no no i think it has to do with 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 part of a community part of the city. 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 having all we love you and we admire you and 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 if china socialist or capitalist fight king 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 lift the life

they wanted and now specially for the generation that's one one nine hundred ninety s. who has not lived through all the hard shifts and changes and they really demanding 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 westland with 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 sprayed argues that china is a country without ideology do you agree with that it doesn't have any it's in. search for an i d all of she 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 that's 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 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 identification in twenty first century. there are quite communists but now

there are so 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 care to look at themselves and say well what we did was 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 that we need to be improved but the west is very much focusing on the fairly us and on the flaws and i think we. should have a balance that. there is a lot of good things and of course they have to work on and also seems to think china is striving to be number one country in the world to be this huge superpower

or is it just happening. i i hesitate because i keep inside i think china wants to be the middle kingdom and once they have the procession had it once 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 the role in the world that they are slowly growing into simply. kaname of a growing size of the economy and by the number of people so i asked your husband whether china was trying to rebuild 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 wonder can become a. dominant empire like the roman empire and all the other empires fall and. 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 zero one fourth of it so there has 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 were not called here. or are you know the chalk when they have their own people we stand for and then we'll get our own motes. 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 right now china owns about one third of the u.s. for in depth and the dollar is at a very vulnerable situation i mean if we're even talking you could devalue the future. what is the smartest way out of this impasse for china i think you know economists are quarrelling 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 but capacity is still there and the chinese are very smart to get to the situation and invest with let's say we can in dollars or not so i think they they're going to work it out and they're smart enough to do so also going the 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 to you can't win worse anymore so why would china really start a war which would be destructive. if i try to itself so while there's a lot of posturing on the political side economically you know it's it's much too much integrative to release start

a war on on either side so no best 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 some they've been not so good friends i think they are seeking an alliance they are seeking. a very close neighbor so i think china in general wants to optimize relationships whether it's russia or america or europe tourists nice big thank you very much for this interview. a very warm welcome to you this is your news today protesters on the wall street

they are. ladies and gents. the chance to get the status of the human experiment. with you see this rock music is what it. was allegedly trying to send some relief to me in the song change things as financial to the real thing to me to put it in markets and. wants to be seen trade imbalances risk which is close to see just like look look closely and see. some fields ripple a bit sick in feel it gives us great. it seems like the budget cuts in athens the construction fields. programs increased that's what an economist .

it's a totally. it's a similar on the players claiming one of their leader is domestic titles in style from the early ninety's. almost famous as the big i mean we have a very long history about hockey in milan or a very very long because we started. nineteen twenty three the first. was built in milan and when we were one of the first in. europe the hockey fans here in milan love the game but are excited by this game and probably there's some people being fired a bit sick of football for other reasons so there are some kind of research for new motion and i believe ice hockey is it's better for that nevertheless i spoke he still some distance from talking football in terms of popularity here a sentiment echoed by a person from the home and of the game canada now calls. home it's played with

love but because it's it's still very underappreciated you don't get the state of motion you know and so you can be mad for a minute but it passes very quickly as opposed to a canadian hockey match it's talked about for you know for months if not for the whole season and so. that is a huge difference in watching a canadian came versus an italian game this is the stereo interior in one of the main venues for the two thousand and six. program of yours own and there is barely a reminder of the epic hockey battles they took place here the ice rink was removed soon after the games finished alone the stadium to become the new home for the. event those three no football clubs one hundred miles east however things brighter local outfit no longer salute are set to join the continental hockey league in
