9:03 am
israel is not prepared to go. for any iranian counter strike the iranians would have every right to do so well i think if you look at the general picture there is a general trend to try to put iran in a corner taught by the corner iran and also to put pressure on other countries independent countries like china and russia and others to agree with new sanctions by sort of training israel as a mad dog attack dog that needs to be somehow controlled in a new sanctions. something bad will be prevented from happening but the whole report itself it's based on forged documents there is absolutely nothing new in the or all the documents that are supposed to come out go back to two thousand and four and previous years all have been refuted in the past the united states has never provided the i.a.e.a. with the documents this shows that this is basically an attempt to create. pressure
9:04 am
and to to move public opinion against iran. we're always interested in your opinion and today we're asking how likely military action against iran actually is to such a website are to take part and so far the majority of you think it's a certainty because the u.s. needs this war sixteen percent say there's no chance of conflict as no one has the stomach for another bloodbath of the middle east and some of you believe it's unlikely it would only happen if there's overwhelming evidence that iran has nuclear weapons and the minority are confident it all depends on iraq that's admitting to inspections by the us the tonic watchdog together still wants to cast your vote. your vote should are still ahead for you applaud the future of looms over libya i mean the flames of revenge killings and the spread of radicalism nato so it's dropped in the country is done all of the details that.

9:06 am
not forget that russia for instance keeps almost forty five percent of its international reserves in euros and of course looking at b. of the other side of the story what's in all of this for russia what can the i.m.f. offer in return for moscow's financial systems. and although the head of the i.m.f. is here in moscow russia is most likely to put a high price tag on its all for all support for eurozone countries in particular its chances to finally enter the world trade organization by the end of the year finally because it's been a long and long years of beating to add to his biggest economic club and christine legarde said today in moscow but russia actually sets a very good example as a bidding country by showing how it managed to reach agreements with hold the member states of these huge organization and that others could follow in its
