i think five we had a conflict but i don't know christians and muslims in lebanon and this conflict was resolved well with we adopted a new constitution and achieved holiday it is possible that at some point lebanon will face the threat of being broken up into pieces and of course it concerns me that look at iraq for example the us occupied the country then they withdrew their troops and what we have now iraq is divided there is a danger that something like that will happen in syria to with the current situation persists and if syria is divided this will directly affect lebanon. do you think the conservation regime can protect lebanon or should the. question is not whether this regime stays in syria or is replaced by another name the problem is that the insurgency has effects the situation in lebanon. do you think is behind the syrian conflict. we have some global and arab interests clashing here and we all understand that what we don't understand is where this clash will take

us in the end but we can say one thing with about if the syrian conflict is resolved one way or another this will affect the situation in lebanon. this is the recent events in lebanon the murder of two shakes the situation and after the detention of saudi malawi who was later released in tripoli all these events indicate that seven forces are not only trying to flare up a conflict they want to start a wave of violence in the country who want to understand it but the big question is who stands to benefit from that. it's being done so that palestinians can become citizens of lebanon if lebanon is divided palestinians will eventually be able to become lebanese citizens but one who is trying to divide lebanon. i can ask you the same question external forces seek to control lebanon they seek to divide and weaken all the countries surrounding israel in order to ensure israel's security. is based on. the current situation in the region and the information we have cannot

point the finger at somebody and say that there are interested in this scenario more than anybody else and. i can put it this way you we've all heard this expression of the arab spring but who has seen the fruit of the spirit no one has egypt elected its president or has the spring ended and most of the same thing is happening in tunisia and in yemen there's no fruit there's just this expression how to break out of it and i really think that what we see today is an israeli spring who will pose a threat to israel now and palestinians dying every day and no one protest before even if one person it was killed it was an outrage today three palestinians get killed or ten or twenty and nobody says anything there's not even any talk about differences within the palestinian move on with my. mind was he had been as mr minister i'd like to ask you about their doctrine of eleven lebanese citizen no

doubt you follow the situation closely and you disgusted with the talk as colleagues during your own prime minister's visit to turkey what is the current situation with these people who kidnapped them when will they return home to their families. but i can only give you a very general answer because we made an agreement with turkey not to disclose the details to the media the kidnapped people are on syrian territory two kilometers away from the turkish border we're working together with the turkish foreign ministry to liberate these people really thought it would have been well lot of us what was the syrian opposition involved jennifer said that they are the kidnappers . yes these people were kidnapped by the syrian opposition but we don't know which group within the syrian opposition is response about the turkish authorities are looking into this and i'll say here and i mean i'm his but is it true that has been largely done as sound as raw law is the only person who can bring these people home yet. i don't think so but the secretary general of hezbollah did say that his if

his personal involvement is necessary to resolve this problem he would be willing to muzzle it out and. that none of the kidnapped individuals i have been know for you know do you know how soon the kidnapped individuals may be freed quite soon it will happen this month. but in fact that it will only realign itself in defining its policies and will not take into consideration syria's internal conflict but some said that this is impossible as the geopolitical ties between the two countries are very strong when you think about that but. let me ask you a question what will happen if lebanon pursues a policy that is based purely on its own interests where will such a policy get terms in which we have a problem but part of the people support the current regime in syria and the other part support the opposition but we as a state policy we recognize the syrian government so is the minister of internal

affairs and you know who should i support if i'm in i don't like the lebanese or against the regime or the minister too should be against the regime. a lebanese republic cooperate with in syria. the syrian government that the u.n. recognizes the syrian ambassador represents syria in the united nations what i'm saying is that we cooperate with the government of a country that if there is regime change in syria we will cooperate with the new government of lebanon recognizes syria as a nation as does the you know when no one has been clashes between the sunni and the not been any leads to a seven. it's not true that the clashes were only between the sunni and the house something like that did happen but not on a large scale but back in those days when the syrian army was in lebanon including tripoli and there were certain conflicts but we never had clashes between the sunni and they allowed we. did not. supports the lovely against the sun and you always

have people standing up for their interests and. the syrian ambassador to the un bashar far and he has appealed to international organizations among other things offering evidence of what terry on lebanese territory the lebanese president the prime minister and just south of deny these allegations who say that while the ideas of al qaeda may be present in lebanon there are no grounds for terrorism or terrorists yet your defense minister says the terrorists including al qaeda cells may be present. could you please explain these differences in such an important issue it would not be though i have personally met with the defense minister and we've cleared up this situation there was some misunderstanding regarding terminology but the president said on the issue is correct we meant that there are no al qaeda cells in lebanon but it is possible that individual members of this international organization are present in our country but we don't have al qaeda

camps or al qaida cells in lebanon but the circle of us me mr minister why don't you make an official statement in the u.n. and the facts presented in other sharjah far is a letter why didn't you know insufficiently that there is no terrorism in lebanon and that nobody supports terrorism. there is no terrorism in lebanon no one can say for sure that it is al qaida who's behind the terrorist attacks terrorism is a very wide concept no one can say that there are no terrorists investable that count how to be terrorists may be everywhere in the u.s. in arab countries recently there was a terrorist attack in front of a man from tunisia or algeria killed three or four children wasn't that a terrorist attack a terrorist attacks happen all over the world the best way to address this problem is to consolidate to the people of lebanon. mr minister part of the repercussions of the syrian crisis may be avoided by demarcating the boy. between lebanon and

syria i'm sure there are a bit of the demarcation of the border will not stop terrorists from crossing over into another country but the situation will be more transparent then that's true the situation will be more transparent we should have had a proper border a long time ago. wealthy british style. market why not. come to. find out what's really happening to the global economy with mike's cancer are no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune

majestic maria sharapova returns to the french open semifinals to stay on course for a career grand slam and the world number one spot. plus on the men's striker on long public shango and goalkeeper egot i can dispel injury worries ahead of russia's euro opener against the czech republic on friday. and five since oct challenger team bradley says he will defeat boxing great many back ya'll as they held their final media conference had a saturday stifled out in las vegas. by the first maria sharapova has reached the semifinals of the french open for the third time the second seed russian powering past a stone has kaia kanepi in straight sets after taking the first set six two share rob had to call from to lob sound in just seconds but it closed out the match six three in just over an hour that's when a five year old will alice a big story as the world number one if she reaches the final this is something she

has never done before despite having won the other three grand slams. nice to be composition again it's my third time semifinals and after a tough match in the previous round a. i'm happy with the way i am proved in this match at that those two really important because she's someone that always competes in plays really well against top players especially she has that extra motivation and yeah the return runs very important because she can serve very well has a big first serve so that was a big key to day. up next is wimbledon champion patrick beat about the czech came from a set down so outclass kazakh qualifier just was like in almost two hours three six six two six four and the fourth seed is wary of sharapova after having lost twice to the russian this season. i mean it's good to know that they can play and i hope that they would be not only five but i know that my opponent tomorrow and you know

i lost. my keys in the last so i hope that day will remember something from to make cheese in trade think when i can win against her and she's playing where i was she has a great season right now and she's very tall porn and they will be a big change for me tomorrow. and over on the men's side holder rafael nadal has yet to drop a set following a straightforward victory over a fellow standard and drop the first set when no one would serve but the world number two prevailed on that side break before serving out the match seven six six two six three the king of play held all of his serves and sealed the deal with a set of the match that's always searching for an unprecedented seventh or a longer ostracizing. you can have this pick to win an easy match one of the finals of. was

a tough one. and through and then me. waiting in the semifinals is another competitor it's very rare the number six seed advance after beating the world number four andy murray on clay for the fourth time out of four however the brits and put up a proper fights on his favorite surface and even won the second settlements i break but murray was guilty off a wall full fifty nine unforced errors one consistent spaniard won it six four six seven six three six students to reach the french open set in finals for the first time while murray was once again made to wait for his mates and major title. let's move to football now and it looks like russia coach dick advocaat has a full if it squad to choose from ahead of their opening game against the czech republic at the european championships in poland striker rim on public schenkel and goalkeeper in good i think they have had struggled with leg injuries but both were back in training with the rest of the team on wednesday as all twenty three players

their muscles at their base in that sound off suddenly go big they also play the training match that so probably check go find the back of the net but look how much the moscow man was russia's top scorer at the euro two thousand and eight with three goals to his name. all but one of the czech squad that were in training involved on wednesday milan barroso. sing this one out they got us a rice striker has a muscle problem in his leg but should be fit enough to resume training the czechs have played russia only once before that was at euro ninety six and still the czechs come back from three nil down to snatch a draw and qualify for the quarterfinals and they believe friday's game will be crucial again. i'm not sure if it's the holidays but it's certainly the most important match as it's the first one we don't really know where we are in terms of how good we are but i think russia doesn't know either they've had a better build up unfortunately we lost things are going to start from zero and we

will see who is to answer to that was the kind of a cots announce that he has to step down after the year old swans as well finals however so far he's enjoyed great success with the russian national team and guys ing them to the euro finals with a minimum of fuss richard and port fleet caught up with former and evelyn's defender arts or newman who knows his fellow dutchman better than most. these are nervous times for to come pick outs he has for weight of a nation on his shoulders as he prepares for russia's first match of the euro two thousand and twelve finals against the czech republic however he believes russia erin with a good chance of spring a surprise in poland in ukraine and one man who knows him better than most having played on his fellow dutchman from the majority of his career says he's upon task state coach i know him for twenty years and he's never changed he's always. he's

always focusing on while he always keeps one of the ten percent actually to get a result. you can see it as well over the last couple of years he's doing well and also a country. is one of my favorite managers and i fit because he's always focused on football. try to do to get the best out of his players undercount is a ready one trophies i'm in neverland scotland and russia where he won the u. a freak out i'm a domestic championship we've seen needs he's managed to form a strong bond with the players especially those who played under him in some petersburg and newman believes his mentality is second to none technical motivation as well. discipline right mentality and i think the right place universe as well russia had few problems in qualifying for the euro two thousand and twelve finals national spice and early here camp haven she finished top of a group with the no one believes the russians can do well at the european championships but it's always difficult because sometimes you think teams will

doing well analysis if they don't perform and also some surprises with the country but we know that they have a very good team could good players players who can score goals can make a difference but it's always interesting especially. because it will be tough but possible you'll soon find out how well russia during the euros and they will start a strong favorites to win the group having been drawn with poland greece and the czech republic. to go to somebody called russia euro two thousand and twelve finals however that will be easy parts comes on pause as he tries to pick his wits against the top coaches i'm players from around the continent how with all of this will be the judgments final told him and in charge of the russians will be determined to end it on a high which bumble fleet also. as a basketball and the n.b.a. now were home a city have become the first team to make the finals the thunder winning their best
