with dozens still missing two days after the drilling platform sank into icy waters but says the last of the fourteen crew members of found alive have now been shipped back to life. three months since the start of the corporate protests in the united states the occupy movement is still gaining momentum that's despite police heavy handedness on some critics claiming the rallies would never last into the winter. and north koreans are paying their last respects to the late longstanding leader kim jong il that's what's been neighbors of the reclusive nuclear state stay on a high alert fearing that his death could spark instability in the region. and next here on out here we speak to the former chief of the un's nuclear watchdog to discuss the security situation in and around north korea are you watching art.
5:32 am
well i'm joined by mr hans blix from stop calling mr blix charity international atomic agency for energy agency for sixteen years and was the head of the u.n. inspections team in iraq prior to the second iraqi war mr blix it's great to have you with us sir now i'd like to start with i say latest news came young male who during who seventeen year old rule north korea has emerged as a nuclear state has died of a heart failure now his son is the next national leader what do we know about him are things going to stay pretty much the same or where general security under threats how vigorously will his push for nuclear weapons. well they are generally rather. about the architecture of the power building near
5:33 am
north korea. but the change has been underway for some time but of course with kim young in. britain figure is gone. and there's always a risk in such a structure that there can be changes so i think it is important that the outside world. does not make us because they will feel themselves in a situation of some weakness and then the threats from the outside knives that make them provocative for the last few years iran was number one nuclear enemy for the united states do you expect maybe a shift of interest from iran to north korea or does a country need to have oil as well to justify that much attention from the west no i think both places are of great importance in the north korean situation first of
5:34 am
all we know that within artillery range from north korea so even without nuclear weapons the situation there would be a risky one and if north korea were provoked at him there could be a risk also of encouraging. forces in japan. i don't see that now at all but that would be a risk in the case of iran. on the other hand we see that already in. their work in iran to develop a capacity we enrich uranium has increased threat tensions enormously and there is a great arms race going on. and we hear who works in israel and then in the united states saying that they should bomb iran others say that they don't know where all the nuclear installations are and that it is meaningless. this one of the
5:35 am
presidential candidates says that he thinks the world for regime change but i don't think he explained whether he would like the a regime change to be the afghan model of model or the iraqi model but also in their eyes are the oh i'm sorry this is very similar similar to what happened in iraq. could we be seeing the new iraqi scenario unfolding here as far as iran goes well there are some similarities in the. escalation of the language and the threats. that we had in the case of iraq and now having case of iran on the other hand we must remember that in the case of iraq they talked about . weapons that in fact did not exists today they are talking about iranian intentions that may or may or may not exist. but the difference is that
5:36 am
iran certainly has a lot of nuclear installations iraq did not have that but in your own opinion is iran of any imminent threat to any nation at this point. i don't think so really and to give is true that you are merely dad has come out in the area very bad language about israel wiping israel off the map of the world but i think most people with me think that he is really talking to the arab street . he has one wanted to do stab allies arab states that have supported the united states. iraq iran does not have a track record of aggression in fact it was iraq that attacked iran so i don't see an immediate threat from iran but i can understand that israelis are nervous but the us and israel maintain the latest i say
5:37 am
a report provides very strong evidence that iran seeking a nuclear weapon. here's the question do you think iran has a nuclear weapon no i think in nobody really thinks they have a nuclear weapon and i think one must read that report rather carefully what they say is that they see some evidence that could act could be explained if they were dealing with a weapon or a mere weapon and that there seems on the other evidence that is very hard to explain unless they were working towards a weapon but they have not said that they established that iraq or actually intends to do it so they might stop short of their weapons well judging from your experience how should this intelligence be treated and how far can actually i.a.e.a. go in checking the credibility of such intelligence. well they do it or not the
5:38 am
every city here in the iran and it's a big country and then it places can be hidden so i think there are limits to what they can find out but that doesn't really affect what the outside world should do in my view they must continue to talk to iran and to persuade iran that they will not need any nuclear weapon and nor do they need any enrichment capability i'm. if some european says the u.k. and france and germany started such talks and they have been expanded to and saw also russia and china and the united states are participants in it and i think that is the wise road to go they have offered iran some good things and i think they could offer more things there is also on the way a big conference about a nuclear weapon free zone in the middle east which will take place in helsinki
5:39 am
next year and all rigidly the idea was to get the israel to do away with this nuclear weapons but i think if this if the conference were to try those to do away with the israeli nuclear weapons and uranium enrichment capability and get the other states in the middle east to come along then there might be a more hopeful future here many believe that iran actually may be willing to get to a point when it's able to produce a nuclear weapon but doesn't actually do it unless its security established threatened is that a likely strategy it is possible we know from the case of israel that they do not admit that they have nuclear weapons they say that they will not be the first three introduce nuclear weapons in the middle east maybe one day the iranians will say that we also will not be the first to introduce nuclear weapons in the middle east
5:40 am
and maintain the situation ambiguity but i think it would be better if all the parties came to the conclusion that they should have neither nuclear weapons nor a richmond capability and israelis would be in were secure there would be a warning now that syria saudi arabia and egypt might also go for richmond's. and iran certainly should be nervous that israel is night bomb them just as israel did iraq in the 1980's and syria in two thousand and seven what is the likelihood actually that israel may be at this point now that it has isolated itself from turkey also from egypt it has disappointed sarkozy it has disappointed obama very strong rhetoric going on back and forth between iran and israel what is it likely that it has become more dangerous and maybe it will actually show for the first time that if the us has it does have nuclear arsenal and use it probably too long
5:41 am
iran well it's hard to judge i mean some people think that this kind of language and threats by their use individuals in in israel and also by a hoax in the united states that it was the rain from their present course however i am somewhat doubtful that one can scare a country away from go in for nuclear weapons i think that carrots are better person aiding them that they can gain quite a lot by staying away from weapon sent from enrichment to saying there will be a point where i will be convincing israel not to use its nuclear nuclear arsenal. i think the israelis are very well aware of the game you're using its weapons and even when they talk about bombing iran there is
5:42 am
nothing to suggest that they will use nuclear weapons for it and i do hope very much that if anything came to a war that no nuclear weapons would be used and it would also be a very bad if they attacked their civilian nuclear reactors that iran has in bush or but any kind of attack i think the risk is a total flood conflagration in the middle east the iranian mullahs are not sitting in to twiddle their thumbs they will have a counterattack of course and maybe they will drag in the united states in the war so it's a terrible fire that they are playing with. and one last question why do you think iran is so reluctant to accept all the incentives offered to them by the international community is it just not simply enough well it may be a question of pride also i think that the western states that have talked to them some sometimes has sounded rather high handed they have said that if you will
5:43 am
suspend your to richmond we may be willing to sit down with you and that is a sort of neo colonial almost neocolonialist tone they are a proud people and many others are and i think that the. they will have to talk to them say important partner for important states state that they are and to discuss with them what would they gain by abandoning enrichment they can gain a lot and i do not see that they have much advantage on the richmond because they can import the fuel they need from russia or from other places. they have only two nuclear power reactors this country sweden where i'm standing now we have ten and we imported a richer a new message. so i don't see iran would loose a very much by doing away with it they may be a lot of pride in this mr blix thank you very much for this interview.
