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 one to iran i mean you're 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. that 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the very start of the revolution therefore as i've said there's nothing new about these talks which are actually quite outdated and irrelevant nonetheless they keep speculating on this matter of trying to stir up psychological

warfare inside our country or in the countries of the region or 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 your of and our european accounts don't have that much money. so yes that the deal with. 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 thus decreasing the revenues from the oil iran sow's is the while at two we used to manipulate the political situation. the way was that i believe they've made a big mistake as this action results in turbulence for the oil and energy market 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 in further. canonic problems which as we can see have affected them already and

so far they've been unable to find solutions for 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 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 year the decisions taken today by the west unilaterally will result in the escalation of their own economic problems. when the story iran ians nav as the rankins with the aggressive and military rhetoric being built up by the west that they aren't as i've said these words and knew 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 though 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 the killing. of 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 the great a rainy a nation of follows the path of searching for new technologies and 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 and the fact that they come over to such people's homes or attempt to murder an educated and broad minded university professor at the for.

highlights the grave nature of their situation it demonstrates that the us and israel have disgraced themselves in this matter 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 and 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 of 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 that it would cause harm to them physical annihilation of people in full daylight as a sign of the adversary is complete powerlessness and despair. yes last i now 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 develop. one term prosperity for

our country that is that of the us as you noted 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 forth 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 but 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. i don't know of other ways but. it's been about a year since the arab spring began a first even the iranian leadership hailed the movement in egypt in 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 interest in the pure straightforward and righteous path that people have been following in a while countries of the region however. stipulated by their willingness to defend

their rights which is a legitimate demand from iran's viewpoint. that it can one say that the instability in the region has considerably increased the narcotic drugs trafficking well. 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 fold 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 host the main drug trafficking route where at the beginning of it because the drugs first penetrate our country then followed 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 that they've been in when was in one of those i was just the pairing for this interview several colleagues approached me at r.t. asking if there was going to be a war between iran and the usa what are you on film. let me say this is. then 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. it was shot four times in total in the air war as it were in. syria the bullets are still in my body. and people should be allowed to defend themselves wherever they own guns in the hands of law abiding decent people are not a problem national rifle association there's 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 it was 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. ok a little what i want to philadelphia hall is over streets. to tell a lot of hopefully we will never have to use the weapons for self defense but we should be prepared the full class including the teacher i think was. seventeen students. and one or seven or still. a soulless substance. but this can a touch like a well trained army. villages in ruins.

they finished his ranch strongly and we still three shots off the pace despite a birdie here on the last. so stanley came to the eighteenth full of hope that he would get his first win on the p.g.a. tour but his upright shot which wasn't too dissimilar to snedeker has turned into a bit of a nightmare as the ball rolled agonizingly into the water and then three putted for a triple bogey and that meant he'd go into a playoff instead eka where on the second extra hole stanley just missed his hand snedeker the title and the million dollars in prize money. tossed off really walking out there to refocus to really get back in this new turn it doesn't matter if this was you know if you're going to back my way into the playoffs or need to make sure already deployed and i did get some great shots made some good parts i'm just very very fortunate to be where i know for sure meanwhile robert rock was a surprise when at the darby championship
