coming from one you sent to here moscow this is all t. it's the weekly of the stories that shape this week western nations are inching closer. to the tree interference in the syrian conflict with plans to set up a no fly zone and france to authorize a strike on the country. region must come under the brave because declared sane gets twenty one years in jail. as an inspiration for even more radical groups. muslims and jews in germany rabbi was challenged for performing a second decision despite a recent controversial call on the practice. and britain withdrawals its threat to

go into the ecuadorian embassy in the rest of the songs by force after a block of south and north american nations side with kyoto in the different. news stories for in fifteen minutes from now in the meantime as promised is our in-depth interview today l.t. talks to the head of the belgian based syrian friendship association chris johnson the main thing regional tension in the middle east and why the current conflict in syria is now at the center of it. today we're joined by christiane sen he's an adult lister specializing in the middle east particularly syria renia relations and he also founded the assyrian a friendship association here in belgium about four years ago thanks very much travis for us for joining us today the first question i'd like to ask to establish the basis of your opinion you established this is so see

a sham syrian friendship does that mean you are considered pro assad as you have been portrayed in the belgian media i'm considering me as pro syria pro syrian people i'm convinced that the only way to get out of this crisis out of this bloodshed is by following the path of free for a lot of the ball to offer firelands so if i say i'm ready for him i don't see i'm pro sets. but if you look to the reality in the city and go from the men's who also is willing to follow this path or forum and you've written and said that the armed uprising in syria has been supported or started from be outside but do you also acknowledge the fact that the syrians from inside want change and one of what is the basis of your analysis on this i do believe is that the violence what we are seeing you know this has nothing to do with the forum this has to do with destroying the people. i'm also convinced. i have

a lot of testimonies from from people in syria that a lot of. what they call the rebels members of the syrian free army it's a matter of fact they are foreigners i mean this is not a forum in syrians are not interested in this is syrian people out of very. peaceful peaceful people and they managed to live together for four centuries since . we don't any problem. so the violence we're seeing no it's not a syrian products i went to daraa. which. which was the bit the year before where the trouble started. also that it's near to the jordanian border it's not a coincidence that the trouble started at the border there. at the border. because this underlines once again the influence from abroad i mean. if you're in

the situation in syria what's really. a syrian. or a city and problem. trouble would have started from. our homes a lot of. outside forces and governments are interested in the to destroy syria why because you have to remember the city has a very strategic position in the area in the middle east in the region i think the main targets as a matter of fact is. because iran is such a powerhouse in the region it's so strong. they know that to take out iran first they have to take out syria and i'm quite convinced if they would succeed to destroy syria the next order to get will be hezbollah in lebanon i wonder if these two allies are taken out. they will concentrate one hundred percent on the them who

are you referring to when you say they i mean to my opinion the united states and their allies because they have their strategic interests in that region. also. a lot of people talk about oil but you have to know syria it's not rich in oil they have some oil but it's not rich but of course the real oil is in saudi arabia and syria can be a transit country. you also have to know that or huge guess reserves in the former soviet union i mean the central asian states of the former soviet union so there for you to guess reserves and i think you have to see it in this context how do you confirm the identity of the rebel fighters as you claim that they are coming from the outside therefore as how do we have proof of that because they found a lot of. proof of this like. when people die

in homes. they find identity cards passports of foreign people. they captured people with a foreign accent you really are for mercenaries or doing it for the money but you also have no out which is active in. syria because they hope to be find a new you know a new base to establish a new base over there let's just briefly look at turkey's role in all of this historically turkey and syria have had good relations what is the interest in turkey being rather aggressive now against syria what is the what lies in it for them to see unrest in syria as a matter of fact we're already seeing this because at this moment the kurdish region in syria or the people in the core of this region in syria very already got

a lot of. government from the government in damascus and of course turkey is not happy with this evolution why this change of mind why are they so. anti syria and no i think there are different theories is can be true would that be still have this. dream aspirations to make of turkey again a. powerhouse which it once once was in the region. during the ottoman era. another factor is that. the fact of the muslim brotherhood they're not really anti western because the origin of the muslim brotherhood. they are what we call it and. so they are interested in free trade with europe with the united states with the

western world i mean we see now in egypt the muslim brotherhood we know with that thirty governments also the president is also pro muslim brotherhood and maybe they are hoping to establish a new government in syria also pro muslim brotherhoods for economical economical reasons and also political reasons of course because you cannot really split this so you said that the ultimate target in this geopolitical story is iran what is and this is not the first time that this opinion has been voiced or what is your analysis on this where iran is concerned it's fairly clear to me not only to me to a lot of people that. is to destroy the iranian regime because of being in the western awards it's hostile regime

hostile to. western waltz i don't think this is true because i feel stupid also many times to run and i can assure you that the ukrainian government is a very rational government spirit and government always say to nuclear program. is a civilian program. while in the west they say no. birth person is to get an automatic bomb or a nuclear weapon and then they told me why should we need to not put your weapon i mean even if we manage to make one appear a weapon. there is a difference between having a nuclear weapon and to be capable to deliver its. so there is a big technical step between these two phases and they see even if we have one nuclear weapon and they think we're going to use it's. the american government and their allies they will almost to the middle ages so they have no interest in going

to being destroyed it's so they are much more rational than most people here in the west think now all the opinions you voiced today it's contrary to the general narrative that we find in a lot of the press lot of the analysis here in belgium or in western europe how is your work and your opinion is received in this part of the world unfortunately. most people. here in belgium but i can also. see maybe a broader picture of the western world to your open in the united states. they're not really aware they don't know really to see the way shin in the middle east what they know about it it's based on the cliche is you know like a very black white picture you know the good guys and the bad guys and even amazed that a lot of people don't even realize. she goes through at the chicken location of here

. for them it's somewhere over there in the middle east and the same with syria i mean a lot of people don't know that the origin of the bathtub or street it was socially sporty a lot of people say ok president bashar al assad and his family to allow we are so this can be true but this is not. ok and i see this is not the main factor in syrian politics the main factor is the origin of the baath party the socialist party where all religions lift together and city as one of the few. maybe the only country in the middle east where you have all these denominations christian but also get all the christian orthodox christian greek orthodox matter i need. living together for hundred of your very peacefully. but most people who are dump relies this chris answer thanks very much for your time it was

. and finally there's only one boat in the world which sails under the european flag he has a mature and particular which is unbeaten since its launch in two thousand and ten however its latest victory in the pelham the two monte carlo regatta was probably the hottest as robert funny on explains. this boat is essential if the best europe has still for the most advanced and probably the fastest moxy yacht with a motivational dream team on board all together as one promoting the idea of european unity as a mature but you has never tasted defeat since it first took to the water in twenty tell him smashing records as a murder for teen only june the fourteenth at the draw a relic scalp these i'm a big the previous record by over three hours with experts call it the best ever selling performance in the middle to reign in. now the brilliant blend of europeans

has gained some russian flavor with making his debut these images in the political two multi-cultural race over the last weekend because. it's a great honor for me to be russia's representative on such an outstanding boat shoulder to shoulder with the likes of yacc and schumann and want vila who are sailing screen with a crop this is a great chance for all of us to bring our skills together and reach the top and change. the first race for the russian was expected to be a real challenge for the health team as the weather conditions was far from perfect and portugal will expect quite light breeze and so on the big question will be going west of sitting across it all going on the side going to the middle so there are a lot of strategic options and obviously following the weather reports the race proved to be one of the hardest steps these m a team had ever had escaping out of debt comes. tried a brand new route me of the tail and killed. which gave the yacht the lead in the

dying minutes just twenty miles from the finishing line in malta carlo. was a long one when you would really not. actually trust. to go along italian coast and he made a very early decision to split to the right and we realize soon on the track nobody else got the same plan the risky tactic proved to be the best with the team's victorious record remaining intact and in the meantime as they mature at parties once again challenging the elements on the course between the chair will near certainty near. the team of outstanding europeans based on going all out to be in the record set in two thousand and three. r.t. . and that's all the sport i have.
