a chance for us to deal with it rationally as you. don't stretch of the you come close maybe there is also a different way we know that there is a man tie china clearly should be informed by america and maybe we can play to to our advantage i mean we can say ok we can stand with us here maybe we this way can improve our relations build a new alliance. we always look at in this study. you do what we can. and our actions are basic on go to with real facts and there are no facts no reason students don't suit support the growing that we should distance from anyone that we should take a step back from the obligations which looks to us as the good as within the to be surely beneficial and i don't think we should be playing against china only to show that we are. aces in this game of intrigues you know that would be

detrimental to. the american psyche there merrick ans. the. move what they are way beyond just one saying it openly that russia should help us to tarnish china to voice china into desire men to sue for. weapons development with the americans this picture lately there. must be a group who did move the goal you are. so sure that was a model they said that we can put a nice all our interview clear your arsenal development and that was done prior to . the election they did it because of the election they said russia also wants china to do that that is just. an underhanded means of pursuing their own goals in the war on ok this new. you start to say that we can freeze our

arsenal development for this is that we can continue to exist. could you elaborate on that a good idea listen to this that there have been agreements in place. but if you agreements such as you list should be based on the interest which each of us guards he has but we should analyze threats which at present tell. and under the rats i mean defrag. counterpart to it and in all this should and in a compromise. a compromise which would be. some common ground between the 2 sides. which would alleviate a concern at the same time we have means of carrying on these nuclear warheads on to territory of a home and the stuff that was part of the now the us wants to leave these nuclear

warhead care is in place as they have lots of situations of carry nuclear warheads . they're not part of the talks they are saying that russia has some new in the game. in the world and these new things which you new weapons being entered into so we have 5. new weapon systems 2 of them we already accumulated new few of them in the text always new start treaty and they know that americans know about that the world made it clear which of them weapon systems i will. give you the details ok that it would put its own life. to those who are covered by the existence of this is. intercontinental ballistic missile. submarine launched and and the strategic bombers and the us said they do

not know what she was going to form part of the equipment they are not covered to use that's what they do they have a rapid. attack program it's a non-nuclear option. would the set of strategic capabilities which can add attack targets. and they say it will take them one hour to reach any point on the girls but warm glow give. this is serious. which is not covered by our talks reality of course they don't include that into the station house with a goalkeeper in the. space just as cyberspace is now part of the possible and welfare for america but. not officially the united states said this was a pretty good to join the comprehensive test ban treaty that that was and you could have the missi to american saves that we won't be discussing who kerry has

for nuclear weapons. let's go out and wear hats when you're in that sense to that means that america wants to introduce each school you're doing and need a subject up to do the conversation tactical nuclear weapons leagues non-strategic nuclear weapons and we always see very clearly to them and then they are. trying to squeeze 1000000 danes were going to category of weapons and which direction the su discussion police. tactical. we've got of commit. or had a we look to from any territory which is not the territory of your country and we have such that you can weapons in 5 native countries will show you but in addition to that violation of the nonproliferation treaty america is now. inviting. and involving native countries in trading will how to use

these weapons which is a blight and a violation or literally as this. instead of leveling the big game we will see it in my platform talks by will draw we got these weapons because the u.s. territory this is going to say that it's going to stay but let's just count all those things that's one thing and the 2nd. is to go through go back to the reification mechanisms which were in place in the ninety's. and those mechanisms they were a humiliation for specters they were just sitting. at the doorstep to them are a factory. what was your measure the containers for me sales it was closer analyze it all. yes we had the same we had the right to be there at u.s. factories nor. was i want you to go to the weather where coordinating the treaty

which is now in place i mean new start it was decided that we could resume will not do so in susan if occasion inspections because it's something which is not and so this image of the ship and then the question of these budget is there is no way we should be that this battle towards each other because it was the equal days of. now america wants to count all the work has as i sat with him actually stoop to education mechanisms and they want to force us into trying to convince china to join the talks begin the mitchell move and that's nothing new that the models of us always want to do that will move on my word here. yes i do remember that the question is to to get one we talked about be. a digital reduction treaty to be you know they. the nuclear weapons key areas. in the middle school should become. a high precision carious high position weapon

carriers and they said well we would use a number of such scariest so this is nothing new if they again our respective you're on the say speak to track there is no way we can sign a treaty for once. there is no way we can sign a treaty they are still stubbornly you could use trying to impose this or nurse was a we're not shutting the door we're not sever you can't x. us every time we just displayed it again and again that we cannot see what that will be with talks when you are what you forward ultimatum was ignoring all the principles which had been affected and universally absolutely stupid. as the very foundation for all our agreements and treaties say she started one book political critical by the way one of them it was just a political deal or a should leg of the day it was not a binary while the other the help. of the useless that put in place the very

strategic shrouds is in place so special and. you asked us about the us or our relations with the us. you said we can probably play a vantage the. disagreement between america and china maybe we can choose between biden and trump is something someone of the who is better for us or not. you have an opinion. i just can tell you this book will provide you with your money. mr he was very very on board. because they just so didn't like it. personally just added here i mean i just want to tell you story mr leverett. minister lavrov i disagree on the airways on 3 major.

radio stations here rush. off it's incredible i never thought that would happen let's just wouldn't stop talking about new start that's why it's. here let me ask you about something else. there is an opinion. i don't know whether i agree with this opinion and i don't know whether you would agree now some say that in kazakstan. release there will be something similar to what happened in ukraine i mean there will be a few. between the after the russians and the people of gaza standing together standing. i read this in a couple of sources. people are saying that i hope this is not going to happen i haven't been to gaza sort of for a long. i never seen any reason to believe that will be the case but maybe you know

more than i do you see how many tensions in the. territory and also another question will we ever do. not only help our. african russian fellow russians to come back to home because many of them believe in outside and maybe we can help them to come back. school because of poor can. relieve. because it's on will be divided we could. be of some. ask me bill. to get the relations strengthened and split dated with the worse than the original role in shaping the old their own county and just a good thing in mind the interests of the russian speaking population and i think it's one. of us it's a primary school has

a couple get all of your leanings plus all the primary important issues or the russians are big. buyers and. the russians are endless to the right to send their kids to russian speaking to the good in the studio schools that sold large those very grim and. bilateral noggin that because we russians had a good analytical. and of course it doesn't concern the matter of the russian was going to bolt the building that old. governing their regions and. burning this is dated a salad and i'm convinced that was a very good that in. and the 1st rather than the understand that perfectly i believe in the context that we had a level of the. allow local all kinds of things. we can always see based on your standing or goodness but you impose excluding them. in

context with sound apart from us and out. ideas being you are i don't really believe that i'm going to go. golds in there and say it's good for us we're talking about the americans now doubt about chinese as much as the way americans behaved themselves in the. central asian begins at the are trying. to help it will be very freeing them so that it's not just geographically neighboring to be conscious of the bad it will. lead to the military. said mary. close dated 3 closets in our ally. make such a template leaves all the n.g.o.s that are being funded by the american aunts but as we go to work in the foundations of a promotion it is ideas sad and courage is someone with but gives with a nationalistic of years has been so inside the country to.

fire burning but china's 1st of all is interested in promoting their economic interests and have already come and sit on that matter is said on questions that. are in check article of meat and china accumulating on the 7 economic prowess of them and they did a loading the rule. by the way and by the original polling bronzes i'll show the nation as soon out lead to the council point. or deal because. i go to china grade so high and so high playing by the rules that the parades if i had the americans themselves. americans months. leaving the world at that because reagan is asian and we drove from all the other truth is the. champions league who needs the liberties and freedom china but humans are trading their economic prowess

implementers overbilling those that are in threat and we are right because you are the ads and learn them are in the night the imprint of the central asia the other posts all get states including the present brush just because we've been friends and the unit that they are in that you. sign a ritual of the civilization and. you're in the eurasian economic union having to drink and arm and once you're a generation that means to escape any is the obvious short of logic on road clown albans which in those no wider context. than a philosophy. mr putin has called all the united eurasian continue. states invited all the counter. to join based projects and then letting those countries that are part of any mature them with your treaty as of any integration be school of unions and keep the doors open for the european

. in them for the border because using this opportunity does that were given to us by god i mean they should be angry if they continue. protesting for. actively developing content it would be just silly if we talk about the interests of all the countries and i would like them because a sizeable on more times that the catholics are any. which have a look of fear but there are some very perverse dialogues regarding all the matters it's still processing dialogue and all concerned that we have weeks rather openly and friendly manner and we are resolving the matter has asked that issue with mt gox. this kind of matter if god didn't clean up western and we have enough time for

one reason. i wanted to ask questions from our audience and we can proceed to them because they really wanted to ask it's an easy question actually to listen to them during them as a minister yes you can see a little travelled the entire world 5 mostly to. the. full everywhere and it's on the way and it's not on the ride and i'm more inclined to. do the queues with the after idea that i. have that traveling the world to remember it that it's impossible to crumble away our account. tree and. we are a country for many generations to go and we have this this good because i must and i'll give the end of the r.f. and we are fans of the crest of the original god she likes the pose that's where we are when. you travel the holidays together well he's talking about active holidays

so that wasn't very active well it depends on what you do i know what faithful do there are so but anyhow thank you very much thank you very much for a great and very speech and i know that the talents are waiting for us thank you for explaining as a lot of things that we have been talking about thank you for this chance to talk to you. just in listening to russia's foreign minister address senior figures in the country's made him let's get the date now on what's been said from our correspondent who is closely following events there. that was what a 2 hour almost marathon session the servant topics covered just pick out some of the highlights for us. absolutely well this was as you quite rightly described a marathon session such an array of topics was touched upon ranging from u.s. politics to conflict in

a corner kyra back to relationships with the european union u.s. one that was talked about an awful lot was given a lot of time was russia's relationship with the european union. that russia on the block does have they do have a lot of mutual interests especially economic interests we just need to think for example of the north to gas pipeline but that he said what he described as a condescending attitude where they often make to monde's where they try and also russia to repent for sins makes it very difficult for full cooperation let's hear what he said that. we. are going to show business as usual we are going to go through every. possible. i mean we were selling or we're going to read all of that regarding the. problems you rush we're going to. get out of this and all were allegedly our interest we don't

believe you because you sure we look at least we don't have to. also add to the terrorists a food bank minority in the block was trying to undermine the relationship and cause problems are not made it really difficult for that to be business as usual all of this comes of course amid to deploy a diplomatic 10. between the block and russia that's in the wake the a lot to poisoning of aleksei. and we just thought that the e.u. has just approved sanctions against 6 individuals on one organization as a result of all of this on that note i did say was that they they cannot open a criminal investigation until information or evidence of a crime is given moscow has sent a number of requests to jummy to france to sweeten precisely for this information but they have all gone without reply on this it was interesting the foreign minister said that whenever russia makes a request for father information to such countries they say why do you not trust us

but that same trust it's not a foot in the other direction and just simply more demands a put on russia let's hear how he expanded on not. presidential compared to friends and i were in by the. way to go to pardon you usually would see them including politicians. talking. to her and my counterpart of. foreign minister. openly states and said they see it as an interest ference in. all its political matters of friends so france $1001.00 contributor was a political matter of someday obit russia would. now look at what is going on. made america lose it along with become upset at how we should receive no one even attention to the fact that that same fear in soon to be internal to the russian

matters may be seens 3 or so crushes so by lives. now all not relationship and $53.00 and generally if relationships of the international community members out of that foreign actors whether it's through sanctions whether it's meeting for example with political opponents whether it's on fact competition and charities and countries. all of this has the end goal of trying to quote bring russia to its knees and to cause problems including even causing turmoil at its borders that was a reference to the ongoing protests and valorous what happened in ukraine the recent troubles in kyrgyzstan as well he said that in contrast russia will always pursue its interests but within the framework of the international law and will put its interests while respecting of course and always being civil with others and not the in-depth topic one can avoid it of course is what's going on in new corner karabakh russia from the outset has always said that it will only ever see

a solution as a peaceful one let's not forget it was actually in moscow just a few days ago and fight off the almost 1213 'd hours of mamma's conversations and negotiations that a ceasefire was agreed between armenia and azerbaijan but unfortunately lost it just an hour an hour and a harf what there were a lot of questions about from the john this was the role of touch in this conflict because as a p john has always said that turkey simply providing it with moral support but it's also at the same time admits that there isn't military hardware over the conflicts on this. set that must go and see a different takes on what the end goal and. let's listen. or whatever we do the west will always try to do just so no one needs to hinder or grow. every way we can loose you know to grow build a difficulty or economics and that's all part of the same puzzle regroup so they're

trying to throw us off the balance of the same time you know probably nobel and the countries on the borders this way you strive to was low but you do focus on became a positive growth that's what they're doing we're seeing that there's a group. that wants i think a slight technical fault that what i wanted was to hit the. love is talking about how he doesn't want see i'm christmas to teach it partner in this respect because chris sees itself as a result thing the problem in going to karabakh militarily whereas russia says that peace talks and a peaceful policy is the only way to go so it could be very different views on how the future and how that conflict should be resolved now finally again is something that we've got to talk about less than a month to go they did talk about the russians relationship with us and of course the u.s. elections off the bottom of the whoever wins whether it's by very little is going

to change in the russian u.s. dynamic it's a they did of course always want to advance cooperation as long as it was on an equal footing. though he did also in the same breath say that sometimes that was this feeling that the relationship with washington was beyond pat he talked for example about how moscow was very unhappy with the u.s. presence uninvited in syria how it continued to what he said to fuel separatism as well as pump oil and hydrocarbons so often sort self above the law and pushing requests on other people which they themselves did not adhere to themselves but he also talked about the successful points of cooperation imputing in afghanistan on counterterrorism in korea and. they are both members of the sea which tried to negotiate really for several years no. so really a very interesting conversation so many topics very little actually was left on

a definitely caught us on a was all about russia's future relationships how it sees itself moving forward the policy it has constantly changing with different countries and different actors really interesting. many things yeah it was a lengthy discussion a pretty comprehensive run. for us. ok this discuss this in a bit more. doctorow's independent political analyst and joins me live on the line welcome bill but let's talk 1st of all about relationships between russia and the european union russia foreign minister when he was pretty skeptical about the chances of there being a business as usual relationship dialogue with the aid that the way things stand how did how did it get to the situation where things seem to be so bad. i think the european union and its own way is working her with notes with a singular objective which is objective that mr ruff ruff was setting out

when he made his or general remarks that is. unsure of the russia crux of the airplane and the european union is doing well why pressure group possibilities on the kremlin and these are your words these are all bluff situation these are. the following your case in all these 3 european union is exerting maximum pressure on russia and that is him parallel with similar activities by the united states the same objective to apply pressure to them or to a point where they hope that what mr putin will be known to him will raise their hand and say that they you don't. subject themselves to the american hegemony in a way that all of europe several decades ago and it means subject to america the

german so the there is i think a certain resentment in western europe but russia has not fall into this same alignment and the russian enjoys its sovereign independence but aside from this these is atmosphere it's a fundamental issue was also touched on by mr locke roth and that is the ongoing negotiations to. carmack in the equations. the russian rejection yesterday of the latest american suggestion that the bodies were old school. i think that we the pressure was being brought to bear on the rush by the year in sports all that's to be taken back to the developments over the last year which is what we see in sort of all the publicity in russian media but considerably less complicity in western media but russia has pulled ahead. of the united states and

the west in general in the latest cutting edge strategic weapon systems and that begins with the obama doctrine and with its more a broader panoply of new weapons that the russians exhibited but there are now other tests and already entering into syria. the united states that's lost its position and of russia this is something that president putin stated very clearly last a week ago or so when he was giving an award to the semi engines director of the factory that the go around war he mentioned that for the 1st time ever russia has a nuclear head of the united states and the west in the latest generation of strategic weapons russia soviet union it always will catch up with iran we're working on the recess thems or other elements of the chip defense

so this is science which is going relatively unnoticed the left and media certainly has received a lot of attention in the pentagon in the nature of offices and i think you have to look there are less pressure points in larger russia to go and recruit or at least seemingly disparate and diverse arguments on mr lott wants or less from things you know once i together in one word or 2 applying pressure to russia you talk about the pressure being applied we've seen lots of sanctions already there is the possibility there will be more sanctions let's call them the novelli sanctions if they come into force it's been suggested that russia might just cut communications with the the e.u. in what direction is this heading if if diplomats stop talking when they really need to cooperate in so many issues globally. because the sanctions that are being introduced against all of president bush and current dellums.
