latest in a string of similar violations emerging monthly since the start of the year. well today we'll see the inauguration of the recently elected south a sitting president had of events we spoke to the new leader he shares his outlook for what awaits the young state in the coming years of his presidency. we're joined today by. is the newly elected president of south a said yeah. mr did you have thank you for finding time for r.t. . will be your first strike as president of the republic of south the city where. we will hold the inauguration of south a city as president and the republic's current government will be dismissed the new president will start forming a new government during our presidential campaign we came up with a name for this new government it will be a government of the people's trust so this will be our first step because the new

government will have a lot to do south the city has basically been destroyed during the georgian aggression we need to rebuild everything we will work out an integrated approach to this rebuilding process. will he continue the policy of your predecessor will select a new course of course. my predecessor worked in different conditions we will continue the course chosen by our people its goal dream prosperity for our people improving living standards we are at a new stage of our republican development right now and we will act in accordance with the demands of this new stage. do you plan to work in cooperation with your opponent from the past elections offer him a position in your government in the. senate korea who is my opponent in the election is on the presidential staff will meet very soon and

we have met before i think that his expertise and professionalism would be a great asset so we plan to work with him in the future as part of the new government of the people's trust in the so there is such a possibility yes there is a possibility of course. what in you opinion are the most important problems partly facing south of. the school my meetings with my constituents showed that there were many problems south a city was attacked by georgia several times has damaged our economy greatly so we have many problems in the industrial and agricultural sectors as well as other areas we will work on solving these problems. russia has your experience in the security services useful for the successful implementation of the functions of the head of state. and i was part of the security services for many years we worked in cooperation with other law enforcement agencies through this

cooperation i learned how other structures function the ministry of internal affairs the prosecutors office etc so i have experience in this area also working for the security services i traveled all over south a sense here i know basically all the people in the republic so my expertise will be very useful i got. that out of the election you one was not let us to attempt to elect a president in southeast asia the previous election ended in scandal what is your version of those events what were wrong. i guess you're talking about the election that was supposed to take place last november it did take place but there were political and legal incidents that made the vote illegitimate the supreme court invalidated the results of that election so we failed to elect a president at the time i think that we could revisit this issue later and figure out why the election was invalidated. for years and even to the south as it is an

independent state recognised but only if you countries aren't you fearful that you'll repeat the fate of the republic of northern cyprus which has for a few decades now settled into a state of isolation from the rest of the international community. not frightened by the new. more than cyprus president because in the first three years of its independence south the city it was recognized by several countries and first of all by such a great state as russia we're grateful to russia for it russia has always been the first one to come to our rescue i think that the countries that recognize our independence will be followed by others we will try to create a certain image of our republic so that other countries may get to know south the city a better and let's hope that we will not share northern cyprus's destiny. on election day he spoke about the dream to unite south a city with a north which is we know is a member of the russian federation how do you foresee this happening. it is not

just my dream it is the dream of our people we've had this dream for a century today we have an independent state but as we have history and for our people to reunite we have been split into two parts one part lives in north setia the other part lives in south ossetia so we held a referendum in ninety ninety two where we asked one question do we want to become part of russia people answered yes to this question over ninety nine percent did so we still have this issue and this problem cannot be solved in a day we will work together with north the setia towards reuniting our people and this is the dream that i shared before. how the relationship between south osieck in georgia developed they still see the public as part of their territory and did not even recognize the legitimacy of the presidential election here. it is a mistake on georgia's part not to recognize the political process in south

a city or as legitimate that goes with a presidential election as well i believe georgia should recognize our republic as an independent state the first thing georgia needs to do however is to compensate for the damage it's been dealing to us since nine hundred eighty nine georgia has attempted to start a war with south asia several times since then practically destroying it as a result georgia has not paid a penalty to compensate for that damage they're obliged to compensate for the damage they've inflicted. your relations with georgia is subject to negotiation you probably know that negotiations on that are underway in geneva. didn't you prediction state lines he talked about restoring order in the country what do you mean by that and what can we expect from. there. yes the rule of law in south a city it was a priority in my election program or should we restore order in the country through rule of law we will need to reorganize the law enforcement agencies to make that happen the law should be above all and everyone should have by it we will bring

order through a lot. of acting know how your relationship with russia will be formed political recognition is a key issue but what is the role of rushing the further development of your country both politically and economically. for syria. syria russia a neighbor in the north was always the first country to come to our aid the events of august two thousand and eight are an example of that georgia attacked south a setia in an operation they code names clearfield if russia had not interfered to save its citizens we would have suffered extensive damage we will build up our relations with russia based on the principles defined by our own people we will forever be with russia the president and the government of people's trust that we will create will work to integrate into russia's infrastructure and cooperate with it politically economically and in the areas of defense in arms trade how do you assess the situation with russian tourists to georgia who are arrested for visiting

south. what effect will the georgian law have on occupied territories. according to my information is this happened on several occasions i think it does not do credit to the georgian authorities as it's a violation of human rights the georgian authorities seized the opportunity to detain people on the sole grounds that they were only georgia's territory it is not the only case of human rights violations in georgia we can observe them quite frequently in that state i know that from my own experience wasn't there and. factor for the development of the countries to attract in would invest in and who is interested in. something to suffer said he it does indeed need investment that applies both to industry and agriculture as well as the republic's infrastructure it is in the best interests of the people of his setia and also naturally not in the least of the investors themselves to create

a relevant legal framework that would attract investment into south the city's economy i believe that investors would be interested to take advantage of it and work here. with the money if you have imagine that he would become president of independent south a camp but it was. an approach with requests to become a presidential candidate since two thousand and one this year however the circles close to me including the intellectual circles and my friends ever undertaken a great effort to have me greece to run for president because our republic is facing now a great number of topics and i think that i am the team i'm planning to create will be able to deal with these tasks i never wanted to become president for the sake of being one it's a job with a high level of responsibility and i'll do my best to deliver. which politicians have inspired me in your political career who do you look up to. that. there are many politicians in history that set

a good examples or follow the most recent example is set by vladimir putin who's been elected to be russia's next president as we all knew going to be a putin and his team succeeded in driving russia out of a deep political and economic crisis that happened a few years ago that's why he is the politician i'm trying to look up to. where do you see south eighteen thousand five or ten years from now what will be like she was three and two or perhaps three all five years' time i see south of setia as a prosperous state where people will feel it ease to go to for a vacation and enjoy their stay here as people do in the civilised western world this is the goal we shall work college to achieve by the example of the leading developed countries thank you very much for the soon to be. thank you very much and many thanks to your team for coming to work here with us in south asia quarterly welcome here anytime a loss. goodbye. the

their revenues have time for security the world's biggest five days draws a marathon of protests over fears that could contribute to a new arms race on scene since the cold war. ceasefire crossfire u.n. monitors in syria reportedly come under a barrage of bullets was both the opposition and the regime trading the blame while influential rebel backers prepare to lower the ax of new sanctions on us its head. and in our we trained a u.s. newspaper shows pictures of soldiers posing with bodies and limbs of data afghans the latest in a string of similar violations emerging monthly since the start of the year. was one of the top stories here on our t.v. and on sports next with entered.

hello there well it's for the sport and here's a taste of what he's coming up through because gold and barcelona is chelsea stomach outlands in the first leg of their champions league semifinal. the breeze for the top seeds at monte carlo is medalling djokovic. and. thinking that their concerns raised about the state of the call ahead of russia's crucial fact cup semifinal against. the first chelsea produced a remarkable one nil victory over barcelona in their champions league semifinal last night here at the end of the first half that only shot on target sound for bridge but it does hand them the advantage of the second leg at the nou camp next week although police manager reverted imitator believes the tie evenly points no i don't think makes sense favorites of fifty fifty for both teams to go through to

the final. you know you know what to expect when you play. a newcomer it's going to be very very difficult and. we still have the belief that we might be able to school all the squirrels will be a tough game and see some tough game for any of your position the course to pass along. the. second. which we had lots of chances to score of the only had the one which resulted in the goal for us it is a great pity we didn't score but we are happy with a really great britain lots of scoring opportunities and we are confident for the return leg. well it's the turn of the europa league semifinals on thursday with an all spanish tie between athletico madrid and valencia to look forward to work around champions two years ago after beating fullam in the final and you cage the only is emerging his place to turn around their stuttering form of late they've

only picked up six points from their last five games in the league but league for me secondary at the moment three side you've got their sights on making a fine. in extremely important it is it. can we go through a final if we go forward after that there will be time to focus and. there are still five games to goo and we will try to take one game if it comes and try to win because we know we need to win. it is though a chance then see the size met in the quarter final three years ago winning on away goals after valencia denied what they thought was a penalty. and in the other semifinal saving portuguese side sporting lisbon will be doing their best to ensure it's not an all spanish final they are up against a pretty bad. i saw casey going cup final continues to saving with the normal

moscow looking to get back on level terms with. the blue whites lost one nil in front of home fans last time out to give unguarded one series lead and tonight is the last game in the russian capital before the contest which is to siberia another packed house is expected at least miki would have been god will see this is a golden opportunity picture you would put that this is just one win away from being crowned champions the nominee well welcome back defender novak feely from injury but will be without forward alexy could a shock. to tennis where topsy is now a joke of it and rafael nadal have power in. the third round at the monte carlo masters in the dow is a defending champion and his article his eight successive grand i needed just eighty six minutes to see often in g.r. in yemen in six three six four six three to school quickly dispelling any phase of back historically extends his winning streak at the monte carlo country club to thirty eight matches in the. next. and novak djokovic the world

number one also breezed through his own now the twenty four year old didn't drop his serve on route to a six one six zero victory over it's nice and simple next place alexander to pull off from cranks. meanwhile russia's female tennis stars in a pairing for their fed cup semi against serbia at the weekend although there has been concern about the state of the court in moscow which has been laid on top of an ice rink i could change as the story. russia's previous encounter with serbia two years ago was no easy matter meeting this atlantic when it's over and i recently bonobo doubles with this great part of the balkans they flee to being on home territory this time around russia will be hoping to make like to work on the city final opponents i'm pretty confident this time playing for franco because it's for us you know play and i'm not alone so i feel support from i see him and i feel

support from the crowds especially the plan on how the semifinals of the federations cup is nothing new to russia even though it's the first time it's going to be held on a clay court so business however could be rattled because they've never reached the seventies before and they're feeling to relatively inexperienced players and it looks like the crew which. was training behind me ranked one hundred ninety pike and ninety six respectively nineteen year old cruel each and twenty year old you are not a good look the nerves get the better of them but not for number one you know yankovic believes rankings count for little when playing in the fed cup i think there are players who play very good for when they play for their country no matter what their ranking is and those players who are ranked very high don't really do so well playing for their country so it's i think it's you know any think that the youngsters themselves are well aware of the pressure but spirits in the serbian camp are high where all the time thinking about the. team most feared because

that's the most important thing and we don't think if we're in the same means or in the final you know it's just going by itself you know we're winning winning so i think we have a very good team and i think we really deserve to be in the same is russia greece passed last year semifinalists italy five nil in moscow only to lose out to the czech republic in the final on some oil so close it's over unco are under no illusion of the serbs will give them a good fight i think of of any. i have never been to the final but oh it's the beating russia did the way it was as an additional made to vacation and they'll be trying really hard to achieve the most while some spend the time diplomatically talking up each other's chances others raise the issue of the courts quality built in a short time frame and over in a high street no less there have been claims that the freshly laid claim is lumpy and is causing holes i hope real. for this match. like you know

the course it's not so good in this moment but really they're doing everything to preserve the court for the weekend now it's not entirely clear whether or not current boyfriend alexander ovechkin was consulted over how to play on ice but world number twenty one maria kirilenko seemed calm about the state of the force well it's something different and i never heard about it you know that they're going for the clay court and i was but so it's ok i just finished the preface. it will be a case of experience versus determination when these two teams meet on saturday and sunday and despite the pundits they bring russia to win serbia's plays a king to prove otherwise might have taken r.t. moscow. another news five more russian swimmers have grabbed place is that the london olympics six time world record holder give in among them after winning the hundred metres butterfly at the national championships in moscow he just beat

nicolas walks off into second place but both put the required qualification time and they will be joined in london by a cardiac unit and vladimir morris often took gold and silver and one hundred metres backstroke while alexander taken off on the four hundred meters medley in four minutes and fifteen seconds to book his place on the russian olympic team so they're on track with their training and sense they're really. the sort of the good as we could have just you know from the start i was preparing for the olympics and was not expecting to face such a strong competition here my aim was to achieve the qualification time required and i had to do that as well as weaning the event it was also a psychological be true for me trying to get back on strike you know. your worship your. everything is your theory. and what athletes are busy getting ready for london this summer some are already thinking about the following

games in rio and twenty sixteen that will say go with make insulin pick return and the search has begun for russian players to complete michael clutch of as more. russia's biggest golf and start my review is currently taking a break from the sport but more young talent is coming through one promise and prospect is russian national runner up for dinner or support he's just sixteen and will turn twenty one a korea olympics the games will see the return of golf after just two appearances early in the twentieth century but to make an olympic dream come true players need to dig deep. and i want to go to be lympics but to give myself a chance i need to be high up in the world rankings so have to turn pro soon and start wrecking our breaking points and improve my game for this season the youngster said he sites on the european amateur team championships and portugal in

september and then probably the world event the russian national side are fresh from a training camp in america and say local trainers praise their progress as a unit but the sports officials are after strong performances not just words of approval together but of course we have to go to the rio olympics golfers will need to rockets up the world rankings those rankings are compiled in accordance with their results at professional events so arts are used to prepare our leading golfers for these tournament's and off season cams will be an integral part of these preparations because their schedule is extremely b.z. week in week out. russia might be anything but a gulf in stronghold and years of hard work lie ahead but with new courses like best to enslave or just outside moscow popping up the road to rio could become a little bit smoother. our team. look to them that is the sport for the moment
