you know if you're just joining our team it's how past the hour here's a quick recap of your headlines the syrian opposition rejects the new international peace plan saying they want president assad to have no part in it international deal agreed and geneva has called for free elections with an all inclusive transitional government and the interrupt. you ok internet and phone farms are to record data on private e-mail social network activity and telephone calls in the u.k. but there's deep concern over new government plans to pry into citizens is personal affairs. and fresh calls to try and julian

a song for spying are made in washington while the top whistleblower waits for an answer on his asylum bit meanwhile our team prepares to air the final episode of his interview show. next up we're discussing the future of nuclear energy after the fuel japan with russia's top nuclear official that's in our special interview stay with us. the head of the state's nuclear energy corporation welcome and thank you for joining us it's been a little over a year since difficult shima tragedy in japan during this period we have seen quite a few countries give up on nuclear energy for example germany has already closed down eight reactors and is planning to shut them all down by two thousand and
4:32 am
twenty two do you think this marks a fundamental shift in a global nuclear industry which of course now is up for you which is one year ago we were pessimistic expecting the number of contracts and the industry in general to reduce by half over the past year the global nuclear energy market has shrunk by as little as ten percent not more what accounts for the reduction is european dynamics germany in particular and japan suspension of its nuclear activities in the aftermath of many countries launched a new nuclear programs instead of shrinking the ones they already had this mostly relates to the developing world but for the first time in many years the countries that have issued licenses to build new nuclear facilities including us which lasted some two decades ago there was also the u.k. which are very conservative and cautious in terms of security they still endorsed a program to build up to twenty nuclear facilities after the fukushima disaster so the global ten percent reduction is not the automatic also remember that some countries have old power plants and in the coming to fifteen years they will need
4:33 am
to take them out of production to maintain the nuclear share in the energy balance by twenty thirty they will need to build some three hundred twenty to three hundred fifty reactor units experts say this is a really ambitious plan in fact we expected the markets to shrink by fifty percent last year assuming that as market leaders we would experience a thirty percent downturns but in reality our contracts have doubled the boiler college has. this is if this presence it doesn't mean that the ten percent decrease actually placed into russia's hands but he just doesn't but you know i wouldn't put it that way a declining market never fares well for anybody as it increases competition it is total requirements that have played into our hands rather than the ten percent decrease over the last year people have figured out for themselves what happened because she left and they realized that there is no irreparable defect with nuclear energy systems in april the japanese government allowed me to visit the people power plant here what impressed me most was not before crippled units but rather
4:34 am
the two damaged ones a few journalists ever mention that fukushima has six reactors i mean was built for them but nothing happened to the other two but what is a vital difference is that the first four units have their emergency diesel generators in the basement or they were simply flooded with the generators when units five and six are located above the unix roots therefore the principle conclusion is that there is a feasible solution however the fukushima tragedy has taught us is that experience is extremely important so and so is an opportunity to physically try and test new technical solutions why do you think we are enjoying higher demand even though the market in general has somewhat shrunk customers have lost trust in blueprints for new projects they no longer trust promises of quality they want to make sure it works for us to that's does indeed play into the hands of russian industries all because we are the ones who can offer the silk art host fukushima solutions for nuclear power plants this means that the new type of power plants that we either build in russia or offer to our customers are cruel i would have endured the
4:35 am
disaster that hit fukushima in march two thousand and eleven they would have happened to them even if they had to withstand the worst possible earthquake coupled with the worst possible tsunami which even if there had been no person at the power plant at the time the machinery itself would have ensured absolute safety of a full service office mr bush sometimes says the sickness can progress and he believes it technological progress can ensure that safe nuclear energy what's your reaction to environment. activist you know so i think originally their energy at the end of it if you look at all to push considering it go like nuclear energy is perfectly environmentally friendly much more so than all other types of power generation such as thermal energy for example in fact it would be more precise to consider nuclear power alternative energy right there with power solar energy and hydraulic power engineering at a point you does not produce greenhouse gas which is such a period when a nuclear power plant is running normally its impact on the environment if it's zero i actually think that all this fuss about the hazards of nuclear energy that was our own philosophy we used to withhold technical information on nuclear power
4:36 am
plants and that when there is no reliable information it's a loss that's when myths. that are in fact like the japanese without trial and information in fukushima and first stays at a tragedy. and i think this was an extraordinary blunder on their part at that i tried to filter the information they were providing to the world they are still paying a price for this mistake in terms of domestic public opinion because what we have done to address this issue in russia is develop something called an automatic system for radiation monitoring it stands for a network of sensors that are placed around a nuclear facility and they keep track of it will be environmental parameters i can transmit their readings to our company. they have installed these systems at every single nuclear facility in russia and two years ago we started displaying these indications on the internet in real to arrive at any of our viewers we access the web site right now and look at radiation indicators for any of russia's nuclear power plants are you up to date as well as for any date in the past and that is
4:37 am
what is count everyone dad was there's no way of reading this has to shoot sensors or ceilings and they post their readings on the internet all magically and that's it sean are the myths in the horror stories we're already developing a new generation of technology pursuing the notion of a natural safeties the kind of safety that does not require additional hardware what we need for our nuclear facilities next is a safety system that will be doing its job. even if there is nobody there to push the books even if the personnel fail to take action because the system should be designed so as to be safeguarded against any possible malfunction meisters all by itself that is a task for a new generation of nuclear power plants that we're currently developing couples in your mind to suggest assistance to begin with considering the kind of technical solutions you have just described how would you account for germany's decision to shut down all of its nuclear plants that was this a decision driven by political pressure with the fishing from the north and east of ali it was certainly politics i respect the german government's decision because i see this as a choice made by a sovereign nation and that said we had
4:38 am
a roundtable discussion yesterday which was attended by the turkish energy minister mr hill does he has to bring questionings he said call it if you believe that your own nuclear power plants are on say we should start you should shut them down right now slowly when you say they are unsafe which you will shut them down after twenty or twenty of them were exactly how are you going to get i would hold a mobile number of facilities for ten more years than you supply and if they are safe enough to last until twenty twenty why show them down at that point we so rich sure it was politics going to start a fight but if you wait you're saying that germany is to only european countries that is ready to give up next our energy but other countries such as specially the way greece that are also a nuclear energy but issuing if not me get them started in norway have decided to make a shift towards renewable energy prior to the fukushima disaster but that is really abandoned nuclear energy back in the 1980's and there have been no recent developments in this regard to what is therefore to be realistic and that is indeed germany has given up on nuclear energy and that is of course
4:39 am
a serious decision germany is a country that used to get thirty two percent of its electricity from nuclear plants now they've indeed decided to abandon it and that's a fight about us like japan has also put a freeze on most of its new point a silex or however last week which i think they decided to wind up and sixty and they're about to launch their first two reactor units with that in the background thirty one countries have decided whether to go on with developing their nuclear reactors. systems for even to build your facilities here for the first time we see is strong difference he asia might eat there will be countries actively developing their nuclear energy program like turkey which is planning to build some thirty reactor units china with seventy four units south africa has just decided to build by continued its england is planning to build up to twenty units so each country will make its own decision that's going to russia no there are several aspects but first of all it's about expertise need to have more knowledge of nuclear energy and you need the technology or you germany for one you can't build
4:40 am
a nuclear power plant anymore just once if they decided to build one now they'd have to outsource construction to us or the french or the americans are german industries have been out of the business for nearly twenty five years and they have lost so number one is know how secondly it's about whether a country can afford developing renewable energy or shale gas germany is a rich economy they have already estimated the prospective costs of abandoning nuclear energy and they can probably afford it but we also know many governments who say we're not rich enough to finance alternative energy research the lack of access to affordable energy is a major impediment for our economic growth we need to pay wages we need to create jobs and we cannot afford investing in a weird energy or solar energy for decades on end of it my goal is i want to have the level of rush hour but it shows that in the u.k. and the united states it's private companies that own nuclear facilities this isn't currently the case in russia but president putin in his pre-election manifesto said there were plans to private taskbar saturn at the still a subcommittee of it. that would let's not forget the bras not only is primarily an
4:41 am
element in this country's nuclear defense capabilities i know our policy makers outlook on this issue and i'm sure will never be privatized because some of its industries cater to russia's nuclear arsenal yet it was such things are not for sale i think you are there you know what is it that is going to get us there to show some projects related to the civilian part of the nuclear industry. are already open to private capital including foreign interests there are already quite a few private investors involved in your radio mining besides you've mentioned the united states well we're the largest owner of uranium deposits on u.s. territory was not on loans twenty percent of america's new rainy lizards were presently mining in the state of wyoming for example this is something you probably couldn't imagine some three or four years ago today it's a reality because we own a controlling stake in your anian one of the worlds largest corporate owner is miner of uranium resources forty nine percent of the company is owned by several
4:42 am
thousand private investors which another area where we've opened up is the construction of nuclear facilities we have a similar situation in mechanical engineering and i don't own one hundred percent of our hardware producing companies anymore and we intend to reduce our respective stakes to fifty one percent and in the long term was there is currently free competition in the industry like i think we would be able to sell all those industrial assets together but as far as knowledge and technology are concerned the government should retain a controlling stake as for nuclear defense related assets the states will keep not just a controlling stake but one hundred percent ownership of the opera for ever there is simply no other way if you want to stick it in ca thank you very much for this interview thank you.

4:46 am
the final episode of his interview show. time now to the sports update with him on . thank you carol hello and welcome visits for an r.t. with the rim on call sort of and this gets more headlines right away. kings of year over again spain enjoyed i mean story for millwood over its aid to become the first team to defend their crown a year old's words it's well by no. zeiger bernie brights goal being stored zeiger woods wins for the third so i am this season to go second on the old fly of victory list in the p.g.a. tour. and better. and balts world champion yohan blake humbles was same bolts for the second time in three days as both jamaican sprinter is quite apply for the london olympics. so football first and sublime spain have thrashed it's
4:47 am
a four nil to become the first ever team to retain the european crown and claim a third straight major title here's kate partridge with more. signed it and paid for its elite nell and space successfully defend their title here hero two thousand and twelve to complete a unique travel entity see success to defend the european crowd and also to do so while the current world champions daveed silva and jordan made it to notice play by hard time and they easily had to play the last thirty minutes with ten good substitute tiago multiple people that mean jet and then an anti-terrorist and one after i came off the bench late on to wrap up the four nil scoreline. this lympics stadium here in kiev is major bumper plate. if there were ever any diets just how good the spanish side they've been on since and i'd say produce a fantastic display to beat italy and win the euro two thousand and twelve championships was punishment an excellent form fry of the tournament and winning
4:48 am
their third major trophy in a row they have created a legacy has been probably one of the best teams to have ever played for international football that's something we're going to we're going to have in our mind whenever there's something around you you can only live once in a lifetime and just without a major gesture there's. no way we've been so many years without winning here with our team with a spanish team winning everything with a little plops and now it's finally the chance we're not to show how strong we are full of astronomy started there were questions whether spain could maintain the consistency of its old emblem the euro two thousand a championship sign the wall comp in two thousand and ten but they quickly on supposed critics or some excellent football friday but solomon terms of competition went home it just grew stronger and stronger culminating in his performance against italy for the likes of champion yes so once again influential producing some incredibly fluid football which is really easy on the i don't really spain very team who just play football in the right spirit and
4:49 am
a fully deserving winners this year of two thousand and twelve title i think we have a really good generation of young players or will be there winning all the shepherds . well you know i'm just one in line around the country and i mean i think there's been a very a very good review all the of the teams are i think we have a lot of just one thing just one really right for italy tonight tried hard but the gulf in class which is obvious to the supporters of the only because as it really didn't have much of a chance to create a couple of good opportunities but unfortunately one needs able to be can see it in the spain goal but nevertheless it can be very proud of a performance at this tournament before it started no one really gave them a hope of getting to the semifinals or even a final but very upset the olds and really they can go home with their heads held high nothing seems to go awry starting from the first fifteen minutes we are lucky we are here but spain has been much much stronger than us
4:50 am
so we cannot say anything or congratulations to spain who are fully deserving winners and i can see no reason whatsoever why they can't go on seven world cup in brazil in two thousand and fourteen and look to what would be an unprecedented fourth major trophy in a row. that was richer vamp or free than so after thirty one matches over thirty days the first big football tournament in eastern europe comes to a close with a record breaking performance from the world's number one team spain are still the champions commiserations to italy after a memorable final at the olympic stadium but for all of us here in kiev it's time to say goodbye. gay partners there and richard poor great reporting from the final in the now moving on to goal for the sports household name tiger woods has claimed his third title of the season to boost his bid to become the greatest player of all time the former world number one trailed by one shot going into the final day of the eighty in the national but he courted us from the round of two under four sixty
4:51 am
nine to be fellow american bone van pelt's vises strokes that they threw gave woods his seventy fourth p.g.a. trophy and it means the fourteen time major. has overtaken the legendary jack nicklaus for the second most career wins on the american for only the late sam snead has more with eighty two victories to his name but at thirty six woods has plenty of time and salant to catch up and he was happy with his performance in maryland. but incredible week i mean the staff the maintenance crew an aero body and yes it was a was a very difficult situation and they worked their tails off to get it done and. you know everybody thank you for being patient with us you know and yes it was a was a silent day of i think everyone saved up for today and it was a great abs for him playing front of. three time olympic champion it was saying bolt has lost his number one spot on the jamaican seamaster finishing second to yohan blake at the olympic trials and king since weiss in three days the two
4:52 am
hundred meters final was the latest test which both considers his favorite distance however blake was still untouchable clocking the fastest time in the world this season off nineteen point eight seconds it was his second season's best over the weekend after he won the one hundred meters dash and nine point seven five seconds both blake and bolts will represent jamaica in london along with warren we are a group the nation's third invent two hundred meters final. meanwhile the russian beach soccer team has won its first qualifier for the twenty thirteen people world cup they thrashed out the nine two in moscow i like same a coral scored four goals while dimitri shushan added and hat trick russia hope to continue their three scoring form on monday when they play germany the germans lost their opening match to poland two one in group eight to two best teams from each group will qualify to the last sixteen stage. and to stay on the sand where russia has claimed another berth at the upcoming london olympics this time the men's beach
4:53 am
volleyball team qualified with it sunil win over poland's it's a russian towns and seems convincing to me came through the group stages of the world and because of one tournaments before dispatching the poles in the final it was the last chance for the side after failing to emulate their female counterparts in winning the ration is cup but the players kept their nerve to ensure a ticket to london. now among the athletes going to the olympic games are a family who hope to repeat the success they had in beijing the lopez's brought home three medals in taekwondo for america at the last olympics they also hold their success in no small parts of their coach who is the eldest son michael has the story. it was an exciting time for us for me and my family. just to know that you know this is what we worked hard for our whole lives and two thousand and eight we made history becoming the first family of top of a trio you know three to actually make the olympic team but we broke the record
4:54 am
because my brother gene is the olympic coach. it's a feat that had only been achieved once the full over century in one thousand no fool with a true liberal disqualified for the u.s. gymnastics team. but unlike them the lucas family also brought home two bronze medals and won silver medal the first time at the olympic shereen was force ignite in me was in one thousand nine hundred eighty around nine years old and taekwondo was an exhibition sport at the soul of big games at american or to my brother in going james tucker knows olympic sport now and they were making a big deal of it and right then and there is when i knew what i wanted to be. jean lopez is the eldest sibling who unlike the rest focused his career on coaching he began teaching stephen first. gauge his other siblings when you start kindergarten you really don't choose to do it just thrown in there so dine and i we didn't
4:55 am
really have a choice were thrown in there but you know i think god my parents and my brothers you know put us in there and you know it was a blessing and i don't regret one moment but we always were such a close family that everything that we did we did together and we still we're still like that today and that's why when i became a family affair for us eugene himself began taekwondo when he was eight years old his father had encouraged him to try the sport because he believed it would teach him self confidence and bill character little did mr hooley lopez know what he had started when i was twenty three years old i decided to open. because that's naturally the passion that i had and that i have and i love teaching and it's something that i want and that i want to give back the most successful sibling is without a doubt stephen. the five time world champion and two times olympic gold when i
4:56 am
was told many times he should have time while on top but even after only taking bronze at the two thousand and eight beijing olympics he still motivated as ever if i feel. the way i do i would have to say i'll go on until i can't kick anymore until i don't want to anymore and the great thing is i have a brother who is very objective and he'll tell me you know steaming you don't have any more you should just stop but even if stephen decides to retire from the sport there's still plenty of future hope for the lupus family the legacy continues because my niece and nephews are training taekwondo and if they want to be world champions one day i believe they can be. and although mark lopez failed to make the u.s. olympic team this time around it didn't stop him from participating in it i'll be there you know for supporting them and helping them when the olympic gold medal that was was not they didn't find in two thousand and eight so then winning olympic
4:57 am
gold is them winning olympic gold for me as well the lucas siblings will no doubt be the center of attention when they take. the lead and even if they don't bet so that two thousand and eight results they've already carved out themselves a piece of it would declare st michael. i'll be back with another update less than a couple of hours from now but our you tube channel is available to you at any time at r.t. sports news so take a look when you get a chance thank you for watching i'll be back very soon.
