i know that there is an idea to start to mend in the constitution in order to confirm like put to forever model for those who don't please enter into the well these are all having the year of the distribution campaign again and that people will start fighting for property that the corrupt people that exist within the system will try to heal monopole lies their position then get it get some precise fandoms out there that we don't believe will have will help us to reach this. and this changes because i know that they want to. restore relations with the west because their one don't want russia to be as a lay to the want to restore relations with the west because they have already their children to start entirely so they have assets these are you know your station of the day we don't rush inside you know the russian is that process of evolution is ready for that will be a trigger to changes but people but till it's not
8:01 am
a very democratic they just say you know you know but i know that his through will come through it will be like movement towards each other the lutes of the people saw their position will work of the growth of grassroots level the leap will try to support this movement and i believe from changes but i think that it will happen until two thousand and twenty four because. the look of the problem in three part is. for example just russia there is no just russia anymore they have no way when the young leader of young politicians held the prayer while he was in office can his seventy two or seventy three it's his last campaign so there is no oil. so we will have changes we will. you will see the change of political decoration in the parliament after two thousand and twenty one they like to call it the political ticker ration so we need to build the base for the
8:02 am
future political party at the grassroots level but at the same time there is a technological revolution we have the internet we have like hundreds in technology mr gustav you know that we do not edit this interview that's why i have to give our viewers a very short break we'll be back in just a few moments they can't. match geysers financial survival guide liquid assets that you can convert is it. really. to keep in mind the to mean to a pleasure. to work. in twenty forty you know bloody revolution to. the demonstrations going to be
8:03 am
relatively peaceful political protests to be creasing the violent revolution is always spontaneous or is it always put me in your list put video with the new bill is that i do you believe it or the former ukrainian president recalls the events of twenty four g. and. those who took. it invested over five billion dollars to assist you in these an article that will ensure a secure and prosperous and democratic. stone is getting international recognition with the help of israel at least in the world of zoos the liberals to dismiss it to do it look like you believe that these are the only complicity is good enough to kill somebody all be. filled. with. the only palestinians who gets the most hopeless jerusalem killed i don't
8:04 am
think this is about those who come to the vision to look at who is who. and the earth does all of your knowledge justice lady of the muscle that i'm a difficulty a muslim still a do more middle souls don't put this all. come back to worlds apart make sure good call for an opposition politician here in russia and a former member of parliament dmitri just before the break we were talking about the current state of russia and. you are expressing
8:05 am
a very dim view of whether or not anything can change at least for the current authorities in power and it's interesting that this current elections i think already. being brought on a corner you know according to different sort of problems for example just six years ago politicians had from non-parliamentary parties had to get two million votes now that barrier has been trustingly decreased the territorial principle of voting has been also scrapped as much as you. people from the opposition like to say that it's the same all the actions but they're very predictable results don't you think that the police there a little bit the system itself electoral system a little bit more accommodating to both voters and people who. if used to be let's say six years ago i can see just a very little difference in the same time. it depends on who
8:06 am
the. opportunities who to be registered to to participate in this a life if we're told just know the tomorrow of putting created was denied registration. has considered as a strongest liberal politician that will come through i mean the lucy you know on the his is the most popular figure in the whole country i mean in the opposition and he was to purchase a plate on this so many people believe that this is the people you see on the part of it was already a negative impact on the early days nobody knows how many all exist without over locations and it's a problem and that's why many people refuse to go to the polling stations to vote because they don't believe in any changes and russia are assuming that it's not the rulership election it's not a vote it's not an election but at the same time i support. to purchase a big license to do everything possible to create a political force for the future away from the work of the grassroots level of
8:07 am
kenya right and draw your attention to the current elections because you mentioned they were there for a change before and i would think that scrapping this territorial. principle of voting allowing people to vote polling stations of their choosing rather than where they are registered creates a great opportunity for the opposition because that measure would be most appealing to younger urban populations with a higher degree of social mobility people who are more likely to have liberal or progressive views if those people are allowed to vote. here in moscow. isn't that actually a good thing for the opposition don't you think that that may. just mean are you with you because for example the people who wanted to vote for a seat in a widening his north of the bell at least he was refused and he was denied registration. because of the politically motivated court decision. and you know and that's why i like people that don't you know sort of this election is there's
8:08 am
a real elections. and it's a problem. well it may be horrifying film going into the polling station to vote of course. it will. watch t.v. to see how the rivals participate in discussions about. the reasons known the cold conditions for all candidates. if not everyone is registered. it's not unlike some well i strongly disagree with you and i actually was you know to this group i heard in the only interviews you said not so long ago that most a larger serban community in russia and here. during the last elections back in two thousand and twelve put in one but he got less than fifty percent of the vote so his support in bigger cities is actually weaker than in the countryside if you add to that towns and possibly hundreds of thousands of people who work in this city
8:09 am
but were in control before i think that is actually a major part of the best opportunity the opposition have in this country and you dismissing it as a non opportunity is funny to me because i. mean why are only saying that are you see i'm going to hold out i have my counted the i'm going to vote for you or you lose q. and i have a political obligation to him to support him because he supported me and when i was running for the state parliament let's imagine what for example in the in the supporters do or during the election they have no candidate to vote for but that you mentioned i by use in the course of who are. going to go to the go to your music as you say is on the ballot and he represents one of the oldest liberally minded opposition parties in brusha if you really believe in the values. only supporters vote for him and shouldn't a volley be somebody if he believes in values rather he should go his own candidacy
8:10 am
shouldn't he be. encouraging is this what is all for you when different issue is different question it's question to the point is a question i asked i don't support his strategy to break correlations but i'm going to vote i'm going to go to the polling stations but i never consider this election as a rule is it is it fair to say that in this particular case now vali is putting he's own personal ambition above the democratic liberal values is that a fair statement. or would say that i come on the i can understand what he said i wanted because he was. conducted the complaining the last year but he's not racist but i can understand his emotions were the same term of course and we have counted they from the liberal forces going to what do you see in yourself in the are i i'm going to vote for you. i supposed to participate in the
8:11 am
elections and to support those who use groups who will be in the bell at least but it doesn't mean that this is a real belt in the elections one prominent russian liberal bias said recently that one of the secrets of put into political lead to have it if you put it away or inside the administration of resource and like the certain electoral patterns in russia if you just focus on his political personality one of he's. one of the secrets to his appeal is that he successfully works with three main strands of the russian electorate the left the nationalists until last year extend the liberals even though i personally believe that he's starting to deliver all camp. now if he's. opponents do that they present themselves in the varo very narrow political life they are either nationalist or liberal can you win can you challenge
8:12 am
put in and the status to that he represents by presenting yourself in such narrow terms by presenting yourself as a let's say a liberal candidate. i can't agree with i'm going to. put in the successful because there is no political competition for him so you can just switch on the to the new you will see only put a. i mean during the elections i mean before the elections there was only putting on the t.v. and there is no are for elections there is no conditions for political competitions that's why he's a popular if you discounting any appeal of his political place you know most of the problem to look good when. you don't participate in two debates or discussions it's no problem to have a high rate and there is no criticism in the to be to lots of criticism here monday and these are linked in there but then the penetration of the internet in russia is
8:13 am
a bar seventy percent. so you know. unfortunately the state channels are more popular with the internet sources now but i think that in the future we will have more opportunities to address our message to the white people now are you going to know you've been very critical of the kremlin and let me mention one of the main kremlin to criticism of the opposition. they are centrally say that their opposition is a bad bunch of egomaniacs who put their personal interest above that common values and i think your encounter at some of that event here in moscow when you were trying to fill those when you support candidates and you had a second clash of personalities with your own allies why do you think it's so difficult for the russian opposition especially liberally minded opposition to put their political ambitions to the side and focus on forming a united front i think that it's
8:14 am
a disease of war our society it's not only their positions but at the same time my strategy to unite people in the opposition managed to do that during the municipal elections because we recruit more than a thousand candidates from different parts of. the mouth open in in russia. dependent movement and we support of those people. two hundred six to several of them in their seats and it was because there was a complain of united democracy and i will try to do that it's a headache of the opposition that we can sometimes united for it's can i ask you one about one more strategy that the opposition usually employs that you yourself have benefited from both of ali and you to some extent do you some on to corruption work and you use it as a means of gaining political attention do you think that's
8:15 am
a good idea because some would argue that mixing politics and anti corruption allows the authorities to dismiss those investigations altogether as a political ploy don't you think that actually could actually russia would benefit if it was perceived as a non partisan rule of law or pursuit rather than a means to some political and i think this strategy works but maybe not so perfect that it used to be the like three five years ago bunk there is a strong demand in our society to fight against corrupt that officials say that it's a good to get into their reason to mushroom fortunately in russia and we need to are exposed to those solutions but i do need to mix it to be in politics. we're trying to mix it with the politics and we're trying to to propose. a clue of reforms to try to get in the corruption so i work with the legislations a tried to. and to corruption legislation while i was in them peeing in the
8:16 am
parliament by one of the member of the parliament but unfortunately i was alone you know out of four hundred fifty deputies don't you think that. i'm to corruption of work should be nonpartisan in principle. i would say that all politicians will use these critics and criticism in their political purposes. but of course it should be out of order. while mr going to have to leave it there i really appreciate your time today and charlie rose please keep the conversation going on our social media pages as for me hope to see again same place same time here on worlds apart.

8:21 am
six cents and deal with them using the rule of law should not. be. that committed the crimes of. the. russian nationals in connection with alleged meddling in the twenty sixteen election. that their supposed actions actually had zero impact on the outcome. thanks for joining us here on r.t. international on this sunday before we get into the regularly show jeweled weekly we have breaking news for you this hour a passenger plane with at least sixty five people on board has crashed in central iran that's according to local emergency services we understand the plane was flying from the capital to the city of. the local media citing eyewitness reports saying the plane was trying to make an emergency landing there are also reports that there might be survivors local authorities say an emergency helicopter trying
8:22 am
to access the site of the crash but was unable to land and here on r t when we get the updates you get them in. on to the weekly here on our wednesday saw one of the deadliest school shootings in u.s. history a former student of marjorie stoneman douglas high school in parks in florida went on a gun rampage killing seventeen and injuring a dozen more. you saw my dead body there on the floor and blood on the floor how many people think five on the third floor. ok look like students it was one teacher and four students. so they do pull the fire drill you want to side boom boom boom boom nearest gunshot i dozed firecrackers but there was a lot like oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh. oh oh oh my
8:23 am
god. don't like coming in being like i'm going to shoot at school you like start taking your family like i love you you never know why you get shot or killed i think is the word that can describe how you feel because at that moment you're wondering what if my kid easy ok z. safe was. tearing of the shooting many of the students were holed up inside classrooms posting distrusting messages online we managed to speak to police a line a student who was in the school at the time. or. like about to leave school. years before the supposed.
8:24 am
started so it's. like the school. and high. it's not a fire drill it goes and it's just like everybody still thought it's going to feel like. they do in the schools but then we just. here are the people starting talking about life there is it should be like in the next. star already got and this is serious. is that all those go on the floor like so nobody can see us. like not to be on our lawns and. mostly when we realize this feel like we're waiting at some point they came and
8:25 am
they told us like thirty minutes later this all goes well everything is clear around but like we're not going to let you out like right now. you know everybody was just trying to reach out of their friends and their family. must harm i just like feel various kinds of lost is like i don't know what they were like well it's weird to like those thousand because like it's just never have been so me and i just the one thing that binds us all is going to be like the same up there with fun where police have identified the suspect as nicholas cruz a nineteen year old former student of the school who was expelled for disciplinary disciplinary reasons and he said he was armed with a semiautomatic rifle and had multiple magazines and cruz has told the police that he was the one who carried out the shooting he's been charged with seventeen counts of premeditated murder now the students at the school describe the suspect as quote
8:26 am
troubled it's been reported that teachers were warned about him some time ago given his enthusiasm for firearms in his free time and so significantly the f.b.i. and the police have admitted that they had received tip offs about the gunman years before the attack but somehow they failed to investigate. we have covered at the broward sheriff's office that we've had approximately twenty calls for service over the last two years regarding the killer the f.b.i. has a term and their protocol was not followed. the information was not provided. in no further investigation was conducted that. we've seen time and time again over the last few years intelligence agencies across the west dropping the ball in terms of getting tips being aware of potential threats and not following up on those threats and. taking out the fences measures it seems less as not being learned they
8:27 am
need to have a proper view about you know what exactly are the threats what are they trying to do how can they best protect the people of their country to protect against these threats and that doesn't seem to be done. from intelligence sources say that of almost two thousand citizens known to have trouble to join islamic state in the middle east sixty seven came from one particular suburb of paris and from there are cities of charlotte reports a short trade right from paris is trapped on the surface there's nothing much to set it aside from the thousands of other towns in the country but you don't have to scratch very deep to see that trend is very different so you won't see any non butcher shops there were i think at the moment over fifteen hundred prayer rooms and five mosques if you look at people on the street you won't see couples holding hands you'll see the women are dressed in strict islamic dress. there's
8:28 am
a lot of home schooling so you couldn't really consider trap you know the typical french town anymore it's a little bit like a state within the state for decades it's been considered a magnet for muslim fundamentalists hardline salafism and one hobby is a widely practiced. and trap has become synonymous with joe hart ism. and dozens of people. islamic state i was have carried out attacks on french soil have been linked. in paris in two thousand and fifty while with her right appears to be. frauds think that. there is some plain white pride remaining bad but your heart is only a matter of time before we have another attack the basic problem is that the ideology that's driving this and this goes much deeper than terrorist cells
8:29 am
planning and executing attacks that ideology is so ingrained that last year a poll of french high school students revealed thirty two percent of muslim students believed islamic doctrine was superior to scientific fact another in two thousand and sixteen showed that sixty eight percent believed islamic law was superior to french law there's also concern that in an area like this that was once branded. by the authorities that syria is becoming the lands. of. the full veil covering has been banned for a cheese yet the police are often reluctant to intervene off the riots in two thousand and thirteen when officers try to i.d. a woman who is fully covered with a very very fragile situation which the government doesn't want to provoke urban riots which would quickly spread like wildfire all over france. president mccord
8:30 am
says he wants to reorganize islam in a bid to fight fundamentalism but some experts say that's a pipe dream radicalization in places like this they say it's already far too deep rooted to take out jollity pinsky. trap. the us is joining in the chorus of growing concern coming out of europe over foreign i still fight his return to their countries of residence washington has urged its allies particularly britain to pay more attention to citizens who fled europe to join the terrorist organization earlier the u.k. defense secretary said they should not be allowed to return i don't think they should ever set foot in this country again they turned their back on britain our values and everything we stand for they are the worst of the worst we're working with the coalition on foreign fighters.
