well what used live from moscow this is are your headlines now pakistan has decided to boycott crucial talks on afghanistan's future next week in a bid to cut back on cooperation with washington the already strained ties sun to a new look after a recent nato airstrike on army checkpoints killed twenty four pakistani soldiers. grinds to a halt as public sector workers walk out over pension and the country's biggest strike for a generation some two million are expected to participate nationwide thousands of

schools and offices are closed while hospitals are being forced to focus only on emergency care. britain orders the iranian embassy in london to close as the diplomatic rift deepens the violent protesters stormed the british compound in terror on this made the u.k. to pull out of its staff from iraq. and a record number of egyptians turned up to cast their vote in parliament reelection but the rear square demonstrators remain skeptical saying the poll is meaningless if of powerless parliament is ruled by the military. now two years might sound like a long time but when you're trying to finish building on a limb pick a city from scratch then the heat is most certainly on now the russian resort of sochi may still resemble a construction site but organizers of the two thousand and fourteen winter games there say everything will be ready in time and hold them to their word the president of the international olympic committee has just paid them but they sit there without.

and. yeah the president of the internationally think of mediates so great to have you here with us in sochi i know it's not your first time in the city and stuff your first time inspecting and that facility what is preferable to actually modernize existing facilities to a big city like in london thank over. fields are missing from scratch like in sochi world we have no preference between the two with the pride so project what counts is the according to the of the game for the athletes are we first look at the welfare of the athlete then we have two options either we go back to a city that has already organized the games we refer to refurbish and we agreed it

. we start from the furch in. the country and we build a complex like the one sort of a board has advantages and disadvantages but the quality of the game for getting to comes first but you've been expecting so she now how is it looking what have you seen so far so far very teeth i think the team and any chance or we respect that all the deadlines we see the strong support of probably the government but also the corporate world and the russian federation is very supportive there is you begin to zero appropriation so we are not the cost of the winter olympics in sochi it's actually estimated between twenty and thirty dollars which is ten times more than games in vancouver from what you've seen is this cost justified absolutely you know you have to distinguish the operational cost from the investments by the government . the operational costs that is what it costs to organize the games for

a period of a month he said to us. it is the same sum as vancouver this is the same service to do you know severe positional cost do not or. at the original cost are funded by local sponsorship by ticket sales but also by the support of the international olympic committee to the organizing committee what makes the difference is the fact that in some countries you need to build from scratch everything seems to create and so should be prestigious he's a new sports resort in vancouver we had just to rape an existing winter sports resort so that makes a difference but you kind of count these costs as being done for the olympic games and two weeks of competition this is going to be a great legacy to the country you will have in sochi the russian federation state

of the winter sports resort and region something that did not exist before it would have an average rate of the of the airport that would benefit for the population you would have you know it's a new process there and you sewage system so it's not just the games it is the city as a whole thing that whatever is being built in sochi right now for there would winter olympics could also be used. as a venue for other massive international sports events absolutely you would have the formula one grand prix. you could stage regional events you can say two or championships and you will states who are serving in the winter sports are severely big games and many many other security is also among the top issues during the olympic games just how much of a challenge is it in sochi compared to london for example you're kind of compared to countries securities or ways of paramount importance we have hardware in munich seventy two. the security has to be on top of the priorities and it is on top of

a fire and it is there were of the local local authorities it is the work of government they only have the means to go to for security and i trust the russian authorities in this respect for example when you choose a venue for claims to take into consideration the mentality of the people who are hosting i mean the locals for example in sochi i think games are over. the games are not organized by the international olympic committee we supervise we advise we support financially but the whole the whole identity is made by the local organizing committee to look at. the summer games in athens greece was the identity of coming back to the roots of olympics the greeks and saying friend after friend get into the game. beijing i then it was the most populous country in the world a lot of it will be the city that has invented modern sport for football and many

of its words were invented in england so the identity will be something very local always sochi will have its own identity if you think about in your own words what makes sochi so special that was socially have a lot of special things differently. the winter aspect of your climate and your country of course in the summer it's not the case but russia has been attentive fight with snow and ice and winter i mean even you history with a spade a major rule and conflicts and wars sochi will definitely be also the unique combination of beautiful see the black sea and the mountains you don't have that many times because it's close to the city a fairly high amount as we approach will snow and the sea being so that's going to be unique so. a unique. circumstance of the sparks of the nature is the key to the search or. yeah absolutely another subject i know that you've admitted that illegal

is one of the main threats to modern sports i was wondering how can how you see prevented is it even in your power to do something about it. we can do a lot by monitoring the sports results we can do a lot and that's what we're doing you can do a lot by monitoring. the betting. we see and out normal profile of betting for a particular match then you can start an inquiry and we do this with governments because we need the support of governments to crack down the street and some say that coping is unless an. illegal touting which i agree nowadays. is dangerous for sport as a leader betting i put them side by side i think there's not one that gets more important than the others we have to for i do appear we have to fight. and leader

but i think just because we've been talking so much lately about in the combatting i was interested in what is it exactly i mean how hard is it to track down this people what are they called terrorists are they are the only criminals or is it like an organized crime group or do you have to. be better if. you have the organized crime whether we were really the criminal gangs very high bets sports results and then they go and see the athlete or the coach or the trainer at the minute for the results of the match and this can you know generate the huge amount of money and all of that is now possible because of the internet because you need to communicate from one account for your one part of corrupt or another this bad thing if we very sophisticated how big of a share of business isn't can you compare it to something like track trafficking and prostitution no it's not that proportion of the f.b.i.

has. but there was more than one hundred fifty billion u.s. dollars in illegal a bad thing last year per year yes that's fifty. you cannot open a newspaper now days without hearing that. being a match fixing a country a country b. country see it is widespread around the world you know that london olympic games will mark the end of your leadership i see what you say is your successes greatest challenge. to say most of my challenges i mean you know i definitely neutralise would be the quality of the games chargers who would be incomplete in the course of the complexity of the games not to make them to be high for very hard for. the challenge would be to five building to fight the leader but i think that that is also something we've started to address is to make young kids move more

because studies allowed for for movement and many young kids. and from the t.v. screen be. a p.c. or video game on i pads or television and many confiscates are sitting too much end up moving have the streets who are busy at their other diseases like diabetes so we have to keep the young people moving and that's also my responsibility and the one of my success secor again president of the international olympic committee thank you very much for the sense and my pleasure. from the bush for ten year old boy. it weeds are supposed to be worse than.

most people at the point of looking down and trying to pull the trigger became. remember squeeze the trigger i don't. see you go down all i remember is that we shall attempt to cut its. mother sires old mr and soldiers who are still trying to kill us we're trying to correct that's just the aisle we face a war there's. nothing on the bill. i went to the war zone and i started seeing now i need to check. in on a way to do their job but arrive

a lot of first that's walk the walk of concerts and look. up. the. maginnis assets that the camp own watches show every single illegal gun waiting for you to stumble. i saw men with a video camera so i moved over and he followed me. you know we realized that we're following everyone from illegal in the morning. the only chance to live him. is to reveal him luck if. it please tell operation lucky. lucky or.
