4:32 am
involved in but when you consider that my head of gray here i've been around my very first trip to russia there's one thousand nine hundred seventy five i had a black hair i was a freshman thirty year old congressman and this is very different place and a very exciting place to be so i'm i'm very high and optimistic on the relationship i've often felt that. that americans and russians actually are almost almost related i think we're more comfortable with each other than we are with almost any other people in the globe and there's a theory that the united states and russia can't live without it i mean it's what it's like it's like a family member that we we go through these patches and this is family members do they'll they'll love each other one minute and they'll be scrapping with each other the next but i think we're more comfortable with each other the way almost all with anybody else in many ways and so i'm very optimistic about the relationship but quite i think has a better chance of sealing the deal with putting romney or obama that's that's an
4:33 am
impossible question to answer my view would be that both of them would understand how valuable this relationship is how important it is this relationship is far too important russia place too important a role today and will continue to do so and so you want to maintain that relationship so whether we're talking about syria or iran or. the european. union's problems today economically and every single instance russia's an important player in the need to maintain that relationship well we're gonna lose the fact that we do have dear feelings towards each other facts are stubborn and russia and the united states can't really find common ground on key security issues just mentioned syria also the european missile defense of course is a very sore point what does it take to break the ice leadership change you said you don't know that it's an impossible question but then what common threat what other common threats can help common economic interests listen i would wish there was a lot more cooperation on syria at this particular moment but the fact is and i
4:34 am
think i understand russia's perspective on this not that i agree with it necessarily but i think i understand it but that situation is troublesome as it is ought not to sort of deal rail much larger set of issues dealing with global security issues global economic issues which must transcend even this an issue as important as syria's now that russia and china have blocked us sponsor tearin security resolution which could entailed a possible for invasion of syria is that what's keeping the united states from invading the country or there are other reasons and that's the major one i think we're uneasy about you know who you arming who's who's the other side i mean you may not you may wish that assad were leaving that there'd be an opportunity for more openness in syria but it's you know it's who really is is what are you getting with all of this what does that mean in the end is that these people you necessarily want running the country or is it just one faction versus another trying to gain political control and that you may not be coming out with
4:35 am
a better result necessarily so i think it's complicated the tendency of the news media is to say these are all the good guys these are all the bad guys i'm not sure it's quite that simple despite the temptation to want to draw those conclusions but could the u.s. really sustain another war at this point well that's another matter that's a debate that's our own personal reasons i think president obama's correct in this regard despite the press. from some of the american congress today for arming the opposition in syria i think candidly we're kind of exhausted this is been a very lengthy more than a decade decade and a half and frankly as we're pulling back now out of afghanistan we're done in iraq except for the troops that are remaining for the reasons you know i think the american public right now would like to sort of pull back and not be as engaged as we have been in these places and to get engaged again who knows for how long and how deeply you'd be involved in it because of that reason as well for us to want to
4:36 am
stay out of them why do you think worse have become so inherent to us foreign policy i mean if you look at it it's a president goes to a new war why is that i don't think a lot of us inherited in some ways i mean the arab spring this was an orchestrated by the united states or anyone this was obviously this was a groundswell of support occurring in that part of the world and i know others i think assume somehow we orchestrated all of this nothing could be further from the truth that was happening in those in the squares in cairo or homegrown people wanting to express themselves one of the basic freedoms that any human being would want regardless where they live in the world and so trying to understand it and help provide support where you could without crossing lines here i think were natural phenomena us and i think we are probably correct in being supportive of those voices seeking to have greater freedoms and greater opportunities for themselves the distinction between doing that and actually becoming in gauged in it
4:37 am
as we were in libya for instance in the ouster of khadafi. is a is a delicate sort of point in which you cross over and you become more meshed in the in the in the conflict and i think president obama rightly is cautious about us becoming too quickly involved by supplying arms to one side or the other or becoming engaged directly ourselves in all of this despite our will. in this to be supportive i know that you've been an avid critic of the u.s. war in iraq he look at least. after the invasion after he was ousted and killed terminated. there's been quite a mayhem inside the country you can't really pull back after that could you see another iraqi scenario unfolding in libya well again i don't even say i think that you're right i thought you were going to finish the sentence by saying with who's running the place today i mean in a sense that's the the dangers in all of these things you know the devil you know the devil you don't know kind of situation so clearly it was so repressive what was
4:38 am
occurring there and libya may have to go through a period here where you don't go if the media transition from ousting a brutal dictator to a jeffersonian democrats that shows up there are periods here of transition which libya is going through that are brought painful to watch but that libya does need america right now just as iraq that are there as well and others and again. this is a case where i think russia could play a role i know they didn't want to necessarily be involved in supplying military hardware and gauging in the conflict as it was developing but i don't think that a lot of now cause you to not find a way to become involved in a constructive way to help that country get on its feet and find its center and give it an opportunity to grow and to provide some decent opportunities for people in that country so the fact that you rejected the idea of being involved in the ouster khadafi ought not to preclude you it seems to me now turning around and say we didn't do that this is the outcome how can we be constructive and help now get
4:39 am
this country back on its feet and stabilize it for good little bad back to the reset policy that obama has started. you know always leave brought a warming up in russia yes relationships and from what it looks from the outside two sides are meeting they're eager to exchange they're nice to each other but when it comes to time self defense the reason. really nothing you can do about it how much of it of recent is about form rather than substance now that you look at it well again i'm not involved today as i was in the past but i think a lot of it probably is about more about form but it's an important issue i mean again the optics of it are important and what it what it means in terms of building a relationship of mutual respect the cold war is over with and yet we still find people acting as if it had gone anywhere and it has it's been relegated to the dustbin of history and that's to everyone's benefit and it seems to be we need to be thinking about this relationship in the context of the twenty first century and
4:40 am
how we have more common problems to address but both sides to use sort of anti us or anti russian referee when it comes to prayer lection campaign here's my question does obama even need to reset policy for his reelection well again i you know the issues are always domestic and it's economic questions and again the rhetoric of campaigns we've seen everywhere they were not unique in that regard can sometimes become excessive. but i don't think this issue necessarily is going to have a dominant role in the presidential election despite the fact that some model i think the presence of a good job in foreign policy and i think there's a general respect for the fact that he's done that good job they do know their disagreements with certain aspects of it the issue of this campaign is going to be about one issue and one issue only and that is the economy and whether or not people are optimistic about the future or not and if they have a sense that things are getting better as tough as they are but they're getting better under this administration the president be reelected overwhelmingly people
4:41 am
have a sense it's getting worse not better it's going to be a close race so we're not going to hear any anti russian rhetoric just to get some republican guard out of president obama i mean you heard some. governor romney to some i'm not sure where that comes from it's kind of seems out of place it almost seems like it's the kind of conversation might have heard one hundred fifty not in two thousand. well thank you very much for this interview severe.
