pricey for iran if iran is beginning to feel the pinch why are we still hearing from the israeli. i think that what the israeli leadership is doing is just to. capitalize on kind of a man to man with the sanctions first of all in the mind of many israelis especially those leaders you are talking about the implementation of functions is kind of a byproduct of israeli pressure. so because israel actually threatened. to militarily attack iran. this was all forced the european union and the americans especially the americans to come up with a much more let us say strict policy with regard to iran in order to appease israel this is how it sort of takes the now since obama. and the american ministration would not like the idea of having kind of an im broadly go in the middle east

before november i think that what obama did with the swift sanctions is on the one to tell israel we are on board and you should just set aside now actually and we are going to dictate the rhythm with regard to iran on the other hand there was a message which he was sent to iran that it's going to be very pricey so basically it could cut either ways but i think that what we stand now is kind of a stalemate but the last just one more no i think that what we are indians are doing and this is very very typical of their diplomacy they are trying to bribe the way to between the israelis and the americans between the americans and the europeans by coming up with those notions as to say yes so we would like to actually listen carefully to what you all for we have offers on our side is that enough to satisfy the israeli leadership or could we still see as well as attacking

iran i think it is unlikely. first of all i'm pretty sure that until november nothing will happen in that regard and even after november we are going to have the same problem there are many say figures or public figures like the former head of the mossad and others who are coming up with kind of a contour argument the final analysis of which of the bottom one of which is at least this time this is not the think israel should come up with don't talk actually about military solution how deep is this difference of opinion between the israeli political leadership and security establishment no i think they are present that if. one should take into consideration these are the guys who are going to take the decision. not the people who use the seven the more sun.

or the army or whatever but at the same time i would say but there are many questions that are still open what's the volume of such an attack. how well prepared the israeli public for the ramifications if and when. what would be the political geopolitical ramifications of such an attack and another question can is will go it alone my assessment is that israel should not do that by itself if at all. and my assessment is that israel has done. or came up with some moves that. i think personally that the west mainly the united states to be much more firm when it comes to iran and i think that will have to wait and see because in my opinion sanctions do work while sanctions working people are going to suffer and people who are going to suffer are middle class citizens when it comes to the middle these as they were revolutions start or this is the

point where revolution start i think that the uranian leadership realize that what they're going to do will have to wait and see but i will not be surprised if i would find kind of an discussion or even dissensions within the region in political circles about how to proceed from now on what about any rain in retaliation how effective would it be not that effective to destroy israel or something of the sort of course but the remains could just use their proxies in the region mainly hezbollah. using their rockets so what they will have in mind here and this will be the retaliation policy of the iranians is to install kind of i would say seeds of instability where you can when it comes to norman's lands in yemen in

iraq even in north africa using hezbollah and he think american bases in the gulf if the sun are unfolded that israel attacked iran and there are nations that would help iran acquire a nuclear weapon is that a realistic scenario yeah i mean in a way that could be kind of a scenario that we're going to have or see there but i would say that the problem with a nuclear iran is not that iran is going to the story israel i do not believe in but. it would be kind of a source of inspiration for a nuclear iran. for many radical. seem to be trying. to start actually act in a different manner now when they have created for you to back up. this is the thing so i'm not sure that the game is i mean no the main issue is in the question as you put it i think that what we have here is kind of psychological. moving across to syria israel has been surprisingly quiet and

inactive in terms of developments there is it because time is on israel signed all because it does not want to see of regime change there well i think there's that is pretty confused about that this is kind of a multi-ethnic multi-religious. linguistic state a state which is comprised of many. different. religious and ethnic type and this is a state that could easily become what we call failed state which means a state that cannot control over all the territory and more often than not you have some flags or regions that are becoming kind of a low maintenance we have had that in libya ready after the toppling down of gadhafi we do see that in sinai. and other radical groups are capitalizing on that kind of a situation and really you have

a weak central state and this is exactly kind of a byproduct of the toppling of the dictator or we going to have a bunch of power centers so it seems to be more concerned with turkey than with his well how can somebody be so sure that israel won't take advantage of its weakening i don't think that is a would take an advantage because in that sense because you know what the israel had had when it. i mean for the twentieth century i mean the closing decades of the twentieth century is a quite silent golan heights or border with syria. i think that israel is a spectator israel can monitor for or do something with that the ever changing region no top of the arab spring. as i said before i think israel is confused or is or has just come up with kind of a strategy or at least a set of tactics of how to deal with this new situation basically it is becoming much more difficult middle east for israel because egypt and turkey one time

friendly and stone supporter supporters of israel in the west in the region are not there anymore isn't it time israel makes a decision in terms of what's happening and so yeah i think that it is high time but i'm not sure that it has to do with kind of a more this operandi by which israel should do something in syria of course not. it isn't should actually set clear what the. set of preferences is. but i think that israel should be much more a last stick more response because what we're going to have in syria i think in two thousand and twelve maybe two thousand and thirteen is a real change in the syrian uprising has shifted toward suicide bombing if that is a sign of greatest terrorist involvement in the uprising on to syria and israel then fighting the same enemy in a way yes and this is what i meant before but you know i can't find now for common

denominator between bashar and israel what you say about those terrorist means that one should start thinking of bashar not controlling all over syria or having at least some us or looking for india's which are beyond the scope of his control this is actually something a reach to better understand that. his situation in syria is deteriorating and in the long run he won't be able to just stand still what are the implications of the arab spring for as well i think that this will. got kind of a much more difficult middle east if least you're strategically or geopolitically speaking. egypt is not there anymore. to form as kind of a pro western stone supporter of a more stable middle east and i think and that's why i think israel should find out

the kind of replacement so to speak thinking is also changing its tone in the recent years. and is that will find the middle east this kind of i would say space or an area. where you con think of kind of a regional or comprehensive peace as was the case before but to just strive for having what i would call interesting or partial agreements i think that we are getting back to one thousand nine hundred eighty nine or nine hundred fifty s. when nobody talked about peace but we do talk about agreements professor thank you very much for joining us here on r.t. thank you. comfort is the least you have. money

hello there thanks for watching and this is what is coming up over the next few minutes crunch going to the netherlands and portugal could go after the torment tonight if they lose against the germans and danes but russia a punished after fans are caught on camera attacking stewards at the euros. and it is the first blood to oklahoma against miami's the n.b.a. finals get underway. it goes straight to the action though at the u.s. where portugal now a defeat against denmark tonight could end their tournament and it is the portuguese who have a few one later time was half time is approaching preparation and push to go ahead put the portuguese two up and nicklas bendtner has just got one back for their mark just before the break there denmark what might the quarter finals in the unlikely event of coming back to win this one this going will be followed by the netherlands against germany the dutch also needing a result to keep their tournament alive while the germans know

a win would see them into the last day with the build up in ukraine is quite partridge. one of football's most famous rivalries as we know it began at the world cup final in one nine hundred seventy four as legend has it the supremely talented dutch johan cruyff golden generation didn't let the germans touch the ball until goalkeeper said my a picked it out of his net after you know how nice can second minute penalty but germany went on to win two one thanks to goals from pulled right now and good after german totally fish and see plate dutch total football for decades of brilliance volatility and history followed in one nine hundred seventy eight holland game some revenge of the world cup a two two group game draw help then go on to the final where they lost to argentina then germany won again in naples only. to their second european crown but in one nine hundred eighty eight frank reichardt and marco van bastien produced stellar displays to beat germany one nil in hamburg in the european semifinal and then lift

the trophy four days later while on wednesday at euro two thousand and twelve one of football's most thrilling rivalries will resume here in kharkiv in the second match in group b. and the latest mass water encounter between germany and holland has yet more significance as defeat for the dutch would almost certainly see the knock downs of a tournament many had predicted they'd win. following on from their world cup adventure and impressive euro two thousand and twelve qualifying campaign their van marwijk side were expected to overcome denmark in the first round but despite a plethora of chances from robin van persie robin and substitute class young huntelaar the dutch were unable to overturn michael crown delis first half opener and the danes held on for a vital victory and severely dented the world cup finals chances are reaching the european knockout phase therefore only victory over germany will probably be enough especially with a christiane a renowned lead portugal to follow. the germans are very strong but we can also

make them feel unsettled but i won't tell you exactly how we're planning to do this yet while the dutch huffed and puffed but were unable to find the target here can live side produce the opposite result mario gomez finally found a target after seventy two minutes in a game a few chances as germany wrapped up a necessary one no win over a disappointing portugal and with denmark to come off to holland best feinstein philip lomond co and now in a strong position to reach the quarter finals however facing those dutch particularly a dutch team that has to win is never to be taken lightly. give me the land i think that the game against the netherlands is going to be a big test because they play high quality football this is one of the best teams not only in europe but also worldwide it's been like this for many years and they're always getting better but we must win to reach the quarterfinals so it's a crucial game for us to whichever side wins at f.c. medalists spider arena will certainly be adding to a piece of football history as german legend franz beckenbauer said matches against

holland have cost me years of my life but i wouldn't miss them for anything with so much at stake in this particular encounter i don't think anyone would argue. r.t. kharkiv ukraine. meanwhile you a for has fined the russian football union one hundred fifty thousand dollars after russian fans attached to it during the country's don't match against the czech republic the russian fans were filmed fighting the stadium staff and fell out after their team's four one victory happened after trying to detain a man they believe had thrown a firecracker the way for says russia could also be docked six points in the q twenty sixteen qualifying group for a repeat offense meanwhile one hundred fifty podium fans around thirty russian fans have been arrested so far following violence before and after last night's one one draw between the country. while russian players are a keeper i think after the hard for a draw in warsaw both defending your ratio of alexander khurshid of sitting at the

squad to training session today jerk of watch part of it from the sidelines with ice on his knee while striker alexander trained individually well they neither thought to be suffering seriously and should be fit for the final group game we've graced on saturday russia still top group a after last night's game and watching it with richard rand paul flee. or russia's one hundred percent record in group a has been ended after a one one draw with poland but not all is lost for dick advocaat cyberspace still remain top of the group after two games or everything could have been so much better for the russians after hours ago if i had given them the lead as this is moscow's try to grab this third goal of the tournament will find headed goal from a free kick or just as we have in the match with the czech republic russia did start slowly as the poles were on top but unfortunately they weren't able to turn their possession into goals then it's a go of struct support russia interleague going into the half time break coming out of the half time russia continued to dominate and really could have had quite

a few more goals but unfortunately their position and numerous times that goal weren't able to beat the polish goalkeeper and out of nothing really i mean poland hungary created by march. had a very swift counter siaca me poland a very good team go. forward of course ski has been to make some form for bruce and receive dortmund virgin blues as leader chuck a fine efforts from just outside the penalty area which gave. absolute no chance at all for the remaining half hours very very open and both teams had numerous chances to try and grab a winner but unfortunately in the end for dick advocaat side they were held to a one one draw but to be honest i mean poland did play world they managed to close down russia's attacking trio of. kids a call of an hour shot in very well begin very little space and especially did well to close down robert schalk of it was so effective against czech republic just a few days earlier or tension now turns for russia to have a game against greece as i said russia top of the tournament top of the table with

four points and they'll be looking at to try and seal qualification with a victory which will mean they'll finish top of the group but in the way even a draw would suffice has been finished on five points and would definitely qualify for the latter stages so all in all most all is lost for the count by outside and they'll be looking to try and put their place in the knockout stages against greece in a few days' time richard onboard fleet r.t. warsaw. well in the other game in group a the czech republic beat the two thousand and four champions greece to warn him of the czechs bouncing back from the opening four one defeat to russia a goal from petty get a check and. putting them to last just after five minutes the greeks did pull one back. in the second but the czechs managed to hold on and win puts them second in the group ahead of their last match with poland so to clarify all that russia points clear at the top all but through to the quarter finals while poland in the

czechs noted the winner of their last match will go through to the last eight. maybe on to basketball and the n.b.a. finals where western champions oklahoma got off to a great start in the deciding best of seven series against miami kevin was the man of the match for the thunder raking in thirty six points his teammate russell westbrook added another twenty five to help the home side to one hundred five ninety four victory going to take place on thursday in oklahoma. far personable. shots you know we just wanted to keep. a log. play or a play harder. than us we do you know it's a game so you just have to make sure you know you've got a good defensive which is you know got to get to this point or. finally a fourteen year old boy is set to become one of the youngest ever plays that golf's

a time in the european championship game tonight we'll have the full time school. more news today violence is once again flared up. these are the images. from the streets of canada. giant corporations are old today. culture is that so much i'm afraid we're going to need to add a lot of people a variant of blood to moscow streets thousands protested in russia's topical for a wide variety of reasons but one issue nights many of them are against return. it
