our teacher. who was shot four times in total and i want to use that word. sorry of the bullets are still in my body. and people should be allowed to defend themselves wherever they are gone from the hands of law abiding decent people are not a problem national rifle association was a group of basically retired military police love to shoot holes and i'm sorry if you know that the bullet comes out here and this makes it go bang and what's in front of here is going to die and that's all the training you really really need raise your hand if you know something's been shot ok place to live what i want to philadelphia only the streets. in jail live without a gun hopefully we will never have to use the weapons for self defense but we

should be prepared in a full class including the teacher i think was. seventeen students. and one of seven or so. the world. science technology innovation all the latest developments from around russia we've got the future covered.

welcome back here with our team here is a look at the top stories iran warns of an oil sales to some e.u. countries is still possible as a group of top u.n. nuclear inspectors star their three day mission in these lawmaker public. dark clouds of war are looming over the syrian capital with heavy artillery fire heard on the outskirts and government tanks witnessed on the streets. it's back to brussels for e.u. leaders as the blog rattled by debt crises seeks to fasten each member nation with a spending seat belt. plus prime minister gordon gets down to business and comes up

with russia's new economic play out in the latest article to back his presidential bid. when next as iran braces itself to face the effect of fresh west imposed sanctions we sit down with its interior minister to ask how the current standstill is influencing affairs and side the country. the possibility of war between the united states and iran is being debated there around the world that's what the mood is like inside the country to discuss that the n.l. joined by iran's interior minister. larger it's possible thank you for your time mr stone is that we're talking several days after the e.u. introduced oil sanctions against iran and i know the iranian leadership has responded by saying the sanctions would do more harm to europe none to iran. still since iran gets seventy percent of its revenues from oil do you have any fears

about negative social reactions including strikes as people may lose their jobs do you take this somehow into account in your work. in. these speculations are new to our country and our government or the power of the people all around ruling bodies or in power as a result of popular voting therefore our government and are all for it is a completely popular and our people have participated in all areas and spheres of our life from the very start of the revolution therefore as i've said there's nothing new about these talks which are actually quite outdated and irrelevant nonetheless they keep speculating on this matter trying to stir up psychological warfare inside our country or in the countries of the region will probably among people of their own countries that have enough of their own problems attempting to find someone else to blame for them we don't sell that much oil to europe and our european accounts don't have that much money. so you are starting to get this all

star the u.s. and the west as a how do not conceal that one of the main tasks of these sanctions is to get the oil prices for the iranian oil lower that's decreasing their revenues from the oil iran saudi is they want a two used to manipulate the political situation. thank. you i believe they've made a big mistake as this action results in turbulence for the oil and energy markets this very factor can result in oil price growth in these conditions the west should expect the drop in the euro rate and the euro market this new decision will result in further economic problems which as we can see have affected them already and so far they've been unable to find solutions oil and energy markets will experience instability and turmoil and this factor can boost prices for oil and energy products and jeopardize the market security and this is quite difficult for the markets which going by previous experience is used to consuming certain kinds of

oil and energy and this also brings up technical and economic issues at the same time we're not worried for around at all we've ensured our efficient planning in advance and with god's help we will continue moving forward that in the end the decisions taken today by the west unilaterally will result in the escalation of their own economic problems in covering the story iran ians navajos the rankins with the aggressive and military rhetoric being built up by the west that they aren't as i've said these words aren't new these speculations have been going on for thirty years and there's no news in it to the iranian people the people of iran are in charge and they always participate in everything we don't sense any problems inside the country. if i may i would like to ask you about the recent killing of a nuclear scientist there have been other similar cases and as far as we understand the investigation into it has not made great progress so far why have there been no

substantial results and who might be behind these killings. and this is clear is day and they admitted mossad and the cia as well as some european security services don't like to see nations progress they would like to have control and a monopoly over everything out of the great iranian nation follows the path of search. in for new technologies it wants to stand firmly on its feet by means of its own strengths and produce its own knowledge they disapprove of this progress and they don't want to see other nations develop themselves the fact that they come over to such people's homes or attempt to murder an educated and broad minded university professor highlights the grave nature of their situation it demonstrates that the us and israel have disgraced themselves in this matter that they speak of human rights and at the same time they officially perform terrorist attacks and promote state terrorism expansion. in their slogans we see their idle talk on fighting terrorism their deeds however do not match their words they brought their

troops to afghanistan under the pretext of defending human rights and fighting terrorism and drug trafficking but drug crops have increased forty fold since the americans got there the number of casualties among innocent men women and children has increased significantly and so has the level of instability in the region that we actually witness terrorism development in the region with drug mafia and drug related revenues have grown as well and we see contradiction between their words and deeds. the scientists assassination will only make the iranian people stronger and more focused on their goal. people understand that they've chosen the right path the one of scientific progress the adversary doesn't want to see this happen as it would cause harm to them physical annihilation of people in full daylight is a sign of the adversary is complete powerlessness and despair. yes last i know that iran is having parliamentary elections in

a month in many countries not only arab ones election may be used as a way to create provocations there are always some people unhappy with election results and this discontent made snowball i are concerned by this that a similar scenario man followed in iran. no thank god we've had twenty nine elections to date and this. election campaign will be our thirtieth election and it will take place in absolute peace and security like all the previous ones because our dear fellow citizens in all the regions all the cities and villages will willingly come to polling stations and cast their votes to designate their delegates to parliament to serve the purposes of development and prosperity for our country. but that's that us there that's us you know that r.t. has been comprehensively covering the situation in the arab countries as we have covered the wars in libya and syria we often heard complaints from the leadership that the intelligence services of other countries have stepped up their operations on the territories of the countries concerned in the past year the way many are

ledged mercenaries in syria and libya who could see with our own eyes that some people were apparently not libyans but fought on the side of the rebels can you see any increase in the operations of intelligence services from other countries or any attempts to penetrate your territory at least in recent years since the latest events in the arab countries began. you see foreign powers and other enemies are at work everywhere they might also be present in our country but we do not feel we should worry about this of course we should look out for superpowers and our enemies attempting to interfere in the home affairs of arabic countries especially in syria and in all countries where the people are in charge of running their nations they must keep track of such attempts. at a lot of other ways. to work with allies it's been about two years since the arab spring began at first even the iranian leadership paled to the movements in egypt

and libya as expressing democratic sentiments now that one year is passed the attitude towards the events around your country has changed do you still believe those are people are driven by their own democratic ideas or do you see hundred other countries in the events of the arab spring. we support any popular movement as long as people's demands are legitimate and the imperialistic regime of world supremacies is obviously trying to lead people away from the right path and neutralize the popular movement or transform it in favor of their own interests but the pure straightforward and righteous path that people have been following in all countries of the region however is stipulated by their willingness to defend their . right which is a legitimate demand from iran's viewpoint but it is that bit of can one say that the instability in the region has considerably increased the narcotic drugs trafficking. yes afghanistan is certainly the focus of narcotic plantations now

the americans and europeans are there and since they came narcotic drugs production has increased forty four world and it's a financial source for most terrorists who infringe the security of central asian states the states of the region and russia itself it's a threat not only for iran but for the region at large and russia if russia fails to keep an eye on what's going on next to its borders and around the country this threat will most probably become a serious problem for russia itself it's a fact that both iran and russia the main drug trafficking route where at the beginning of it because the drugs first penetrate our country and then follow to turkey and then to europe and then on the other hand russia was also on the route that its northern end because the drugs penetrate russia through central asia and then go to europe we suffer serious losses on this route more than three thousand seven hundred lives have been lost in the attempt to resolve this issue. given we as humans are convinced we have to go on with this ruthless battle so as to save

our people and despite the fact that the world community does not lend us necessary assistance in this cause we're alone to bear most financial costs and human losses in order to continue the struggle shut down the borders and blockade the territory inside the country in order to prevent the trafficking so it seems iran and russia will have to take responsibility for the problem themselves. when was the one of our best i was just comparing for this interview several colleagues approached me at r.t. asking if there was going to be a war between iran and the usa who said you were on fire. let me say this again all those fabrications are not new. to us the islamic republic of iran is a strong power capable of defending its regional security fully and the iranian people being a great and powerful nation are not afraid of those futile threats that.

you know how sometimes you see a story and it seems so poorly you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else you hear or see some other part of it and realize everything you thought you knew you don't know i'm tom harpur welcome to the big picture.

i am known. as four shot four times in total and i have one as it were and. sort of the bullets are still in my body. the only people should be allowed to defend themselves were they own guns in the hands of law abiding decent people are not a problem national rifle association was a group of basically retired military we love to shoot holes and i'm sorry if you know that the bullet comes out here and this makes it go bang and it what's in front of here is going to die and that's all the training you really really need to raise your hand if you know something's been shot ok but to live without one of the philadelphia horns over streets. of jello without

a gun hopefully we will never have to use the weapons for self defense but we should be prepared for the full class including the teacher as employers. seventeen students and city and one of seven or still. to be soon which brightened if it wants. from phones to persian. means friends don't talk t.v. don't come. to british soil. that's not on the front. end of the. market.
