it feels multinationals. make it a cash cow to be milked dry and if i think that in this country gold medal logie as an environmental cost which is unacceptable local business was labeled illegal and controlled by criminals in order to protect our lives our families and to work in peace. most almost but we are forced to pay protection to illegal groups watch for prices colombia going to pay. the modest effect on r.t. . what will change when america picks its president. pushing china and russia as occupying. two parties still dictate their future to a selection of. parties beginning up to over twenty second. you

shall. be my guest on the program. the collective security treaty organization. has launched a major peacekeeping. at the controversial reports last forces might be sent to afghanistan. to ports were denied by russians. because. they. spotlight media attention so was it just a coincidence or do they rule. out a plan b.
9:32 am
c s t out. said. the collective security treaty organization unites russia. is supposed to protect its members from outside aggression however the cia. international terrorism drug trafficking and illegal immigration. could deploy. quickly or. ject heard the rumors saying journalists misinterpreted the words of his deputy the c.s.u. always currently an observer organisation and the united nations. is not who mr producer and welcome to the show though. let's start with the recent
9:33 am
incident on the syrian turkish border i was able hern quite a few alarming reports recently learning rights after that brought us film and so on to use it all but take that situation on the border sounded particularly serious to me who feel lately as to when the turkish troops started moving towards the syrian border and you know the first time in a long time i was really long armed i go to this because this is a really dangerous situation for the media just blew it out of proportion up us they start see. i think it is series. of incidents between two nations may have far reaching consequences that especially if one of them is in such disarray he could or should do the crucial to turkey's a nato member siri is russia's ally there this deal with that situation really evolve into a nato russia confrontation you know i don't think so that would be good if you are
9:34 am
unlikely scenario but the events that they did happen are alarming opinion if you will actually everything we have been witnessing for the past few years but in the past leading is good points in one direction we are shifting towards global instability global and used to be used and i'm referring to the whole arc of instability that spans you know their frica in the arab world beastly consequent libya the murder of the libyan leader at the situation in syria situation in lebanon and the numerous problems in the caucasus problems in africa the world's news heading into words in. stability used to be. you're saying the world is heading toward instability. do you mean we may have another world war coming our way not a year when you stop there i wouldn't go that far but the number and intensity of local conflicts you can each story is definitely increasing. he. hypothetical
9:35 am
hill should nato join the conflict on turkey's side. what would be the sea studios response with regard to its ally syria. are you considered your options in a sea of steel. we want to move strictly speaking to recuse we in the c.s.t. you don't view syria as our l.-i almost never come talk to actually we don't even have any interaction or any contacts with syrian security agencies which so we just money through the situation there and look you know i really hope it doesn't get to the point where we have a military block intervening on behalf of one of the nation's. capital and i really hope that this border incident be over and the other problem is would be result of a more even though at the moment the situation is actually getting worse someone
9:36 am
who because right after this incident we will have a problem with this plane which was an route from moscow to damascus but it was turkish fighter jets made to land in turkey minutes so the conflicts between the two nations is obviously escalating and you have to work on flee the north america but i still believe that common sense will eventually prevail nor the oughts talk about this plane in more detail. how did you react to it in the universal than any discussions with political leaders or with the military. has been no discussion on this issue hurt their careers that are reaction of course is extremely negative. because they used warplanes against a civilian aircraft something even though they could have used diplomatic channels to resolve all the problems if there were any more actually i'd like to go back to what i said earlier scott there was another the world was heading towards global
9:37 am
instability so it could do it. today we see lots of signs indicating that the whole system security is about to collapse because a process. in the for example we see the leader of a nation being murdered. we see nations your own supplying arms and money come from one of the sides in an internal conflict when we should regime i mean they're supplying arms to rebels not to the legitimate authorities. right even though the country has a legitimate government we see warplanes used against civilian aircraft but it's the soldiers of one country peacekeepers from another country as it was in two thousand and eight we see embassadors killed we see ambassadors killed people we see a u.s. diplomat killed in an arab country tourist this is what concerns us even more. and what's more we see diplomacy being replaced with sanctions. we see tougher
9:38 am
sanctions against this country more sanctions against this country those who are sick everything indicates that the world really needs into the global security system the direction president suggested just a few years ago and i must leave it on the bush it was much like the one. recently you signed an agreement on concretion between the c.s.t. all secretariat and the un secretariat it will take it that is it part of your efforts to man some of these holes or is this something totally unrelated. to you little that you want to remove the united nations. as an umbrella organization with which we should cooperate with memorandum and cooperation in fact i just came back from new york where we signed in other memorandum on peacekeeping cooperation. agreement this means torch that we in the c.s.t. zero does not rule development but he's keeping theories as part of un efforts to
9:39 am
establish what i'm called to your conducting a peacekeeping exercise or acknowledge you just called there a lasting brotherhood twenty twelve that's where you invited you in observance what makes this exercise special and why do you see it is first joins us this is joe has conducted drills for a number of years why do you say it's the first time. indeed we regularly conduct exercises with various forces but it was only a year ago that we completed the formation of our own peacekeeping force it was a start it today our peacekeeping force is forty five hundred strong at the other this number and eight hundred are police and the rest are troops. but it's a beautiful thing you know once we completed the formation process we started the combat training program because we began to develop coordination even the tween units we can different countries so this is the first exercise for the c s t o a peacekeeping force because you truly want to of course we never have u.n.
9:40 am
observers because we follow u.n. standards u.n. guidelines and the u.n. practices and we're going to through them cannot see in the product and we always say that we will only gauge in peacekeeping t.v. if they are saying you must by the united nations. this is not the first time you come to our program that when you were here on our show a couple years ago you told us that the c.s.u. would refocus on internal threats rather than the external ones that were so there you completed the serif focusing process and what are these internal threats. it's not like we exactly four q. . in a certain type of threats we rather respond to the real threats we face in the c. s. t. o. go to the security issues we need to address the mood in which we are not concerned about external threats that much we do not expect
9:41 am
a military conflict within you outside power but if you are stating a scheme to in fact most of the problems in our nations face today the world view to be internally unspoken still gets nothing more terrorism drugs if you did it the human trafficking extremism which is getting supporters in our countries. therefore we used it to the available to us to counter the challenges that our nations face and the challenges i mean the internal growth of the soldiers because of that i knew. speaking of peacekeeping missions just the other day that was eerie suggesting that our peacekeepers me go to afghanistan after us in new york troops leave the country and leave the foreign ministry quickly dismissed the idea but more do you think it is possible more in theory anything can happen i know but still to you in afghanistan is it completely untrue or if there were indeed some
9:42 am
plans under consideration this report is completely untrue there has never been such a plan. and i hope we will never have to send our peacekeepers or any were troops to afghanistan. why is that is that because the memories of the ever going to war are still fresh when our generation and the word of ghana stand is it to me first order because this position itself is an organization that is only concerned with the security of its member states so if we have to address issues related to. only deal with the issues on the afghan border or in the border area secondly there is a mission. that operates there. from the u.n. security council unfortunately as far as i can tell you can this mission is yet to achieve its objectives and i really hope they work hard to achieve the goals which were the purpose of the need to intervention in afghanistan in the first place. of these goals so they can withdraw their troops with the she says not to do general
9:43 am
the c.s.t. al spotlight will be back shortly after the break and we'll continue this issue looking to talk about of ghana's that stated. mission free couldn't take should be free transfer charges free. range mentioned three to three stooges free. download free broadcast limited video for your media projects a free media dog r.t. dot com. welcome
9:44 am
to the. science technology innovation hall the list of melons from around russia we've got the future covered. you know how sometimes you see a story and it seems so you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else you hear or see some other part of it and realize everything you thought you don't know i'm tom harpur welcome to the big picture. it was the strangest attempt of a military type. the u.s. president trying to overthrow a foreign country's government but his strategic games are small. and america recognized its defeat. questioning the state's cuba managed to cope with its
9:45 am
victory not all don't talk to. god. i leave you thank you while you go but the rajab either live in the cuban missile crisis games and reality t.v. . welcome back to spotlight. just a reminder that my guest on the show today is nicole a about of the general the see as c.e.o. collective security treaty organization an organization that includes some countries of the former soviet union mr murdoch staying with it again it sounds
9:46 am
serious still has a special working group for afghanistan probably just that know that and you're seeing there are damaged beyond the scope of your organizations who are still and you can only address some issues on the afghan border at the most of the events in this working group before afghanistan or. this group is made up of national representatives certain from all of the member states of the group who first it coordinates our efforts in providing aid to afghanistan just on the we're going to ensure stability. we changed the data on the developments in afghanistan it was because of some of the. coordinates. to address the threats coming from afghanistan. is because this is if you used to group up some of them but i'm with are going to devise a lot of information which helps prepare our recommendations for the respective
9:47 am
leaders or countries that could live in your national currently this group has been instructed by the presidency we're going to be there reports on what may happen in afghanistan after nato troops leave the country in two thousand and fourteen can you continue to not in other words we want to know what scenarios we need face there most importantly we steps we need to take more in order to prevent the situation from having a negative effect our countries have some of. that of that you regularly mentioned nato and your speeches and interviews and you have repeatedly said he would like to copper it with nato. is obviously they're not willing to engage in this cooperation . i'm following your comments and i know that you said recently that lee they are reluctant to cooperate for purely political reasons what are these reasons to mean that in principle both sides would like to cooperate but they are unable to do so
9:48 am
because of politics i think so you do so they don't want to cooperate with even though common sense says they should and i think the experts who are involved in security issues but are not involved in politics have long realised there are two organizations join their efforts in certain areas and everybody would benefit from that but this is obvious but before the there is no denying that he's sitting why then is nato able to cooperate with russia surely to russia caught fruition is definitely developing what it seems to be unable to cooperate with to see a steal. i think that's because people in nato member states. i think they said direct contact with integration among the former soviet states. at least read some of the cables. i saw them use this argument but it's not if we recognize this to you we would effectively recognize integration among the former
9:49 am
soviet republics. perhaps it would be easier for them to work with our partners other c.s.t. donations from shown to one in bilateral basis. karimov suspended his country's membership in a sea studio this summer so what is the current status of as big a stan and these are true that they meet joining nato. or is this report completely untrue as well. i don't think it's true what will circle at least the foreign policy concept adopted in his biggest in because john says an equivocally because the country cannot be part of military alliance and cannot host other countries military bases or troops can only say tory goes back you stay in the band will be participation and this is crucial it is your dissipation membership they have suspended chest we hope this is a temporary measure in the mirror why did they take this step but i think they did
9:50 am
because countries vastly different approaches to building a collective security system a story in six of the member states have been saying we should join our forces we should form a combined force and that we should set up next for coordination on the mic and should work together in various areas where they can but i won't go much into detail but the government is biggest in keep saying no we want to do everything within a bilateral form it only knows we're not interested in collective activities. when we say we should coordinate our efforts in aiding afghanistan's post conflict reconstruction is biggest and says it will only work in a bilateral format when it gets. you mean not only do they decline to engage in collective efforts but they insist there should be no collective efforts on treading or charters so what happens if one of the seas still members decides to develop these bilateral contacts and perhaps even interest send their troops to
9:51 am
afghanistan like the would you do you need an approval from the a.c.s. cio they're free to do what they want. they don't need an approval to send their troops to keep their word in the news but they need an approval if they want to join a military alliance or under the new rules third countries military bases or troops in their territory doesn't sit well so. recently we had need to representatives on our show and i asked them whether georgia could join nato anytime soon and they said no we have no plans to accept georgia right now we want to see first how the election. does this mean that georgia will soon become a nato member and we should really ask nato of course but what do you think i just here would need to official say they say that the door for georgia to join nato is not closed and we should we think any mechanical expansion of this military
9:52 am
alliance that was in violation of the understanding where you can we used to have about nato expansion in the one nine hundred eighty s. but you would be counterproductive. in the case of georgia with these speeds. and this is not just russia's position this is a point of view shared by all members states by it. so i think these developments with regard to georgia can only exit all the negative trends in the former post soviet territory. let's not put an actual. practical of the same thing recently he met with the troops just a couple days ago and he said it i quote expansion of nato operations so those are a threat to our territory and we need to neutralize these routes. what are these threats to our territory that wouldn't talks about just one thing
9:53 am
somebody may seize our territory you know how do you plan to neutralize that i think. he meant to say that we see military facilities and infrastructure being set up the perimeter of member states so the new premier league russia and belarus we see forward operating bases being set up in bulgaria and romania we see missile defense installations being deployed with arms being supplied to georgia and so on but because nobody would set up a military infrastructure purpose if its military infrastructure is being set up for military purposes. which countries do they target are their objectives why would they spend hundreds of millions of dollars to set up new readers sites. it is men for protection against iran but we all know this is not true so i think this is
9:54 am
what president putin meant our view is that need to pose a threat from nearly all member states especially russia and naturally every nation has to take appropriate measures if you need to realize the threats it faces so roughly that's what the president must have meant. let's go back to cooperation between need to end this siege to you. i know that you personal support the idea of having such cooperation of course how can this cooperation benefit us here in these words mutually beneficial but all the time. i will feel better if i know that has made friends with the rest but what benefit do you see. as we have serial areas where we can cooperate. first at the nato operations in afghanistan. that you are aware of the transit situation. collectively not in
9:55 am
a bilateral format on a collective basis we can provide assistance in supplying the international forces in afghanistan. secondly not coming drug trafficking out of afghanistan. nato forces are deployed in afghanistan and we can work on the border and in the border areas we can join our efforts in cordon it our t.v.'s there next naturally in many disasters i think we can hold joint exercises coordinate our emergency relief efforts what it wants to see if we can also change data our forces we can collaborate in producing military analysis of the current situation so there are quite a few areas where we can work together and benefit from it. russia is the dominant. force militarily those that both among the former soviet republics
9:56 am
and india see a studio at the start but would you do you think this will always be a case do you think we may ever face a situation where it will be some other country not russia playing be a leading role in this year's studio. or in their case russia would not be interested in being at sea still members that its business war goes all i can say is that russia is certainly one of the core members in the studio but you can i mean it is superior to all the other member states in economic and military terms today it is russia who supports other member states stories but i cannot see russia done in a c.s. to you all decisions are based on a consensus. i can give you dozens of examples. just something and another member state would object to it's an organ we would do something else instead but this is particularly true is because standing to me they have stopped us from developing some areas. were very interesting using the media you know with
9:57 am
a little bit now they have laboratory suspended their participation right i mean you know what russia did not dominate the c.s.u. russia has never imposed anything that. nor does it dictate it is actually very tactical. units but if one of its partners for objects to something russia would never go twisting their hands you can take my word in that space thank you unfortunately our time is up but i should say just to remind that my guest on the show today was to do with secretary general c s three zero and that's it for now for all of us here if you're telling yourself public mail and spotlight will be back with more press than calling. in and outside russia until then stay on r.t. and take it.
