2:30 am
welcome to the "cbs overnight news." president obama and russian president vladamir putin sat down for their first face to face talks in a year. the news came hour after they addressed the united nations general assembly in new york. the civil war in syria was a focus for both men. who offered sharply different views on the crisis. here's some of what they said. >> we see an erosion of the democratic principles and human rights that are fundamental to this institution's mission. information is strictly controlled, the space for civil society restricted. we're told that such retrenchment is required to beat
2:31 am
back disorder. that it is the only way to stamp out terrorism or prevent foreign meddling. in accordance with this logic we should support tyrants like bashar al assad who drops barrel bombs to massacre innocent children because the alternative is surely worse. nowhere is our commitment to international order more tested than in syria. when a dictator slaughters tens of thousands of his own people, that is not just a matter of one nation's internal affairs. it breeds human suffering on an order and magnitude that affects us all. like wise when a terrorist group beheads captive thousands, slaughters the innocent and enslaves women, that's not a single nation's national security problem, that is an assault on all our humanity.
2:32 am
i said before and i will repeat, there is no room for accommodating an apocalyptic cult like isil, the united states makes no apology for using our military as part of a broad co-lgs alition to go afte them. we do so with determination that there will never be a safe haven for terrorists who carry out these crimes. and we have demonstrated over more than a decade of pursuit of al qaeda, we will not be outlasted by extremists. but while military power is necessary, it is not sufficient to resolve the situation in syria. lasting stability can only take hold when the people of syria forge an agreement to live together peacefully. the united states is prepared to work with any nation including russia and iran to resolve the
2:33 am
conflict. but we must recognize that there cannot be after so much bloodshed, so much carnage, a return to the prequwar status q. let's remember how this started. assad reacted to peaceful protests by escalating repression and killing that in turn created the environment for the current strife. so assad and his allies can't simply pacify the broad majority of a pop laeulation who have be brutalized by chemical weapons and indiscriminately bombing. yes, realism dictates compromise will be required to end the fighting and ultimately stamp out isil. but realism also requires a
2:34 am
managed transition away from assad and to a fnew leader and inclusive government that recognizes there must be an end to this chaos so the syrian people can begin to rebuild. >> i cannot help asking those who have caused this situation do you realize now what you have done? but i am afraid no one is going to answer that. policies based on belief in exceptionality and impunity have never been abandoned. it is now that the power vacuum created in the middle east and north africa and the emergence of anarchy areas that started to be filled with extremists and terrorists. tens of thousand of militants are fighting under the banners of the so-called islamic state.
2:35 am
servicemen who were thrown out into the streets after the invasion of iraq in 2003. many recruits come from libya, a country whose statehood was destroyed because of a cross violation of the security council resolution and now ranks of radicals are joined by the moderate syrians supported by western countries, first they're armed and trained and then they defect with the so-called islamic state. beside the islamic state itself did not just come from nowhere. it was also initially forged as a tool against undesirable secular regimes. pressure has always been consistently fighting against terrorism in all its forms. we provide military and technical assistance to iraq and syria and countries of the region fighting terrorist groups. we think it is an enormous mistake to refuse to cooperate with the syrian government and
2:36 am
its armed forces. val atlan fighting terrorism face to face the we should finally acknowledge that no one but president assad's armed forces and militia are fighting the terrorist organizations in syria. we know about all of the problems and contradictions in the region but which are based on reality. dear colleagues, i must note that such an honest frank approach of russia has been recently used as pretext to accuse it of growing ambitions as if those who say it have no am bisqbitions at all. it is not about russia's ambitions, dear colleagues, but about the recognition of the fact that we can no longer tolerate the current state of affairs in the word. what we actually propose is to be guided by common values and common interests rather than ambitions. on the basis of international
2:37 am
law we must join efforts to address the problems that all of us are facing. and create a generally broad international coalition against terrorism. we hope that the international community will be able to develop a comprehensive stability economic recovery of the middle east. then, dear friends, there would be no need for new refugee camps. today the flow of people who were forced to leave their homeland has literally engulfed first neighboring countries and then europe itself. there are hundreds of thousand of them now. and might be millions before long. in fact a new great, tragic migration of peoples. an it is a harsh lesson for all of us including europe. above all i believe it is of the utmost importance to help restore governments, institutions in libya, support the government of iraq and provide comprehen sieve
2:38 am
assistance to the legitimate government of syria. >> the overnight news will be right back. but don't get just any one. get one inspired by dentists. with a round b hrushead. go pro with oral-b. oral-b's rounded brush head cups your teeth to break up plaque, and rotates to sweep it away. and oral-b delivers a clinically proven superior clean vs. sonicare diamond clean. my mouth feels super clean. oral-b. know you're getting a superior clean. i'm never going back to a manual brush. it destroys limescale in seconds without scrubbing. tough hard water buildup - gone! no scrubbing. turbo power destroys it. for lime, calcium and rust, lime-a-way is a must!
2:39 am
2:40 am
at. the u.n., president obama called assad a dictator who slaughters tens of thousands of his own people. russian president vladamir putin had a different view calling the assad regime the legitimate government. the russian president had more to say last week when he sat down with charlie rose from "60 minutes." >> so you would look to join the united states in the fight against isis, that's part of why you are there. others think that while that may be part of your goal, you are trying to save the assad administration because they have been losing ground and the war has not been going well for them and you are there to rescue them? >> translator: well you are right. we support the legitimate government of syria. and it is my deep belief that
2:41 am
any actions to the contrary in order to destroy the legitimate government will create a situation which you can witness now in the other countries of the region or, in other regions. for instance in libya. where all the state institutions are disintegrated. we see a similar situation in iraq. and there is no other solution to the syrian crisis than strengthening the effective government structures and rendering them help in fighting terrorism. but at the same time urging them to engage in positive dialogue with the rational opposition and conduct reform. >> as you know some of the coalition partners want to see president assad go first. before they will support. >> translator: i would like to wreck mnd recommend to them the following. they should send this message to the syrian people. it is only the syrian people who are entitled to decide who
2:42 am
should govern their country and how. >> president assad -- you support him. do you support what he is doingen sedoing in syria and what is happening to those syrian people, those many millions of refugees, and the hundreds of thousand of people who that have been killed many by his own force? >> translator: well, tell me, what do you think about those who support the opposition? mainly the terrorist organizations, only in order to oust assad without thinking about what will happen to the country after all of the government institutions have been demolished? today you have repeatedly said that assad is fighting against his own population. but look at those who are in control of 60% of the territory in syria. it's controlled by either isis or by others. such as al neusra and terrorist
2:43 am
organizations recognized as terrorist organizations by the united states and by other states and by the united nations. >> are you prepared to put russian combat troops on the ground in syria if it is necessary to defeat isis? >> translator: russia will not participate in any troop operations in the territory of syria or in any other states. well at least we deon't plan on it right now. but we are kconsidering intensifying our work with president assad and with our partners in other countries. >> i come back to the problem that many people look at and they believe that assad helps isis. that his reprehensible conduct against the syrian people using barrel bombs and worse, is a
2:44 am
recruiting tool for isis. and that he was removed, transitioned, at some point, it would be better in the fight against isis, al nusra and others. >> translator: well speaking in a professional language of intelligence services i can tell you this kind of assessment is an active measure by enemies of assad. it is anti-syrian propaganda. awe match . >> much has been read into this including this -- that this is a new effort for russia to take a leadership role in the middle east and that it represents a new strategy by you? is it? >> translator: not really, no. more than 2,000 fighters from russia and ex-soviet republics are in the territory of syria.
2:45 am
there is a threat of their return to us the so instead of waiting for their return, we are better off helping assad fight them on syrian territory. so this is the most important thing which encourages us and pushes us to provide assistance to assad. in general we want the situation in the region to stabilize. >> but your pride in russia means that you would look to see russia play a bigger role in the world. and this is just one example. >> well, not the goal in itself. i'm proud of russia. that's true. and we have something to be proud of. but, we do not have any obsession with being a super power in the international arena. >> but you are in part a major power because of the nuclear weapons you have. you a force to be reckoned with. >> translator: i hope so.
2:46 am
i definitely hope so. otherwise, why do we have nuclear weapons at all? >> recent tension between the united states and russia began after ukraine's president was overthrown and fled to russia. putin responded by annexing crimea, leading the u.s. and western allies to impose tough economic sanctions against russia. >> translator: ukraine is a separate and majorer to for us. it is our closest neighbor. we have always said this is our sister country. not only a slavic people. we have common history, common culture. common religion. and many things in common. what i believe is absolutely unacceptable is the resolution of internal political issues in the former ussr republics through color revolutions through coup d'etat, through unconstitutional removal of power. that is totally unacceptable.
2:47 am
our partners in the united states have supported those who ousted the president. >>-up believe the united states had something to do with the ousting of yanokovic, and he had to flow to russia? >> translator: i know that for sure. >> how do you know that for sure? >> translator: i know those people who live in ukraine. we have thousand of contacts with them. we know who and where when, who exactly met with someone and worked with those who ousted yanokovic, how they were supported, how much they were paid, how they were trained, where, in which countries and who the instructors were. we know everything. >> for the record the u.s. government has denied any involvement of the removal of the ukrainian leader the you respect the sovereignty of ukrai ukraine? >> translator: sure.
2:48 am
but we want countries to respect the sovereignty of other countries. and ukraine in particular. respect for sovereignty means to not allow unconstitutional action and coup d'etat. removal of legitimate power. >> how will the renewal of legitimate power take place in your junkmedgment -- how will t come about? what role will russia play? >> translator: russia has not taken part and is not going to take part in any actions aimed at removing the government. >>-up have a military presence on the border of ukraine. some have argued there have been russian troops in ukraine? >> translator: well do you have a military presencen europe? >> yes. >> translator: american tactical nuclear weapons are in europe,
2:49 am
let's not forget that. what does this mean? does it mean that you occupied germany? or- you transformed occupation forces into nato forces? if we have our military forces on our territory on the border with some state, you believe this is a crime? >> the "cbs overnight news" will be right back. nex fast max. it's the same difference. this one is max strength and fights mucus. mucinex fast max. the only cold and flu liquid gel that's max-strength and fights mucus. let's end this.

3:02 am
western syria. pentagon officials say it is the largest russian military deployment ever outside the borders of the old soviet union. hiding from radar in the wake of transport planes, 28 fighter jets have flown into the base where the russians have stationed 16 helicopters along with surveillance drones. putin claims they're ready to join the fight against isis. but he seems to make no distinction between isis and other groups trying to overthrow the regime of bashar al assad some of which are supported by the u.s. although the jets have not flown any combat missions yet, the drones have been conducting surveillance flights to the east of the base. where opposition groups, but not isis, are located. scott, not since last year when isis swept across iraq have the facts on the ground changed so dramatically as in the past month. >> david martin at the pentagon. thank you. those new facts on the ground

3:04 am
he called for a new alliance with assad to fight isis. he said it would be "an enormous mistake not to cooperate with the assad regime." which he said was valiantly fighting terrorism face to face. but the u.s. blames assad for alug isis to drive which is why he cannot be an effective partner. and scott, u.s. officials say today's meeting with putin was about judging whether he truly wants to fight isis or whether he is trying to keep assad in power. >> margaret brennan for us tonight. thank you. >> in an interview for "60 minutes," put spin told charlie rose russia's own security is at stake in syria. >> much has been read into this including this -- that this is a new effort for russia to take a leadership role in the middle east and that it represents a new strategy by you.

is it? >> translator: not really, no. more than 2,000 fighters from russia and ex-soviet republics are in the territory of syria. there is a threat of their return to us. so instead of waiting for their return, we are better off helping assad fight them on syrian territory. so this is the most important thing which encourages us and pushes us to provide assistance to assad. in general we want the situation in the region to stabilize. >> well there was no stabilization in financial markets today. china getting much of the blame. weakness in the chinese economy helped send the dow down more than 300 points. nearly 2%. the s & p 500 was off 2.5%. one stock that is rising however is the political stock of ben carson. he has pulled into a virtual tie
3:06 am
with donald trump in the latest poll of republican primary voters. marco rubio and carly fiorina are the only others in double digits. trump rolled out his tax plan today. and major garrett has that. >> reporter: it will simplify the tax code. it will grow the american economy at a level that it hasn't seen for decade. >> reporter: trump would create four take brackets with top rate of 25%. currently the top rate is nearly 40%. workers earning less than $25,000 a year would pay no federal income taxes. trump's campaign said those individuals could send the internal revenue service a one page document with suitably trumpian language -- i win. trump would observe deductions for charitable contributions and home mortgage interest. almost all other deductions and credits would disappear. essentially, raising taxes on the wealthy as trump told 60 minutes last night. >> some people are getting
3:07 am
unfair deductions are going to be raised. overall a tremendous incentive to grow the economy. we are going to take in the same or more money. trump would slash corporate tax rate from 35% to 15%. consistent with republican sa ply side theory that across the board tax cuts stimulate economic growth. >> how would you address the democratic arguments now three decades old we have try supply side it created higher deficit and aggravates income inequality. >> i don't think it is supply side. it is a common sense, well thought out tax proposal that will trigger the economy. going to make everybody go back and really want to work, going to create tremendous numbers of jobs. >> tax experts we talked to said trump's plan lacks specifics on new sources of revenue, therefore, scott, difficult to calculate whether this plan will make america's debt and deficit situation better or worse. >> major garrett on fifth avenue
3:10 am
in that interview for "60 minutes," we asked trump about his plans for education and the economy. >> we have to fix our country. 60% of the bridges, bridges, are unsafe. they have unsafe records. and things could happen the you have seen bridges come down. we don't build anymore in this country. we build in afghanistan. we build in iraq. we build all over the world. but we don't build. we have military that takes care of south korea. we get nothing.
3:11 am
we have military that takes care of germany. we get nothing. we get nothing for anything. i ordered 4,000 television sets recently. they all come from south korea. nobody makes televisions in this country anymore. >> this point about the televisions is at the heart of his economic plan. trump told us he will keep american companies from exporting manufacturing jobs. >> let's say ford moves to mexico. if they want to sell that car in the united states they pay a tax. here's what's going to happen. they're not going to build their plant there, they'll build it in the united states. >> but there is a north american free trade agreement. >> there shouldn't be. it is a disaster. >> if you are president you will have to live with it. >> excuse me. we will renegotiate or break it. >> every agreement has an end. >> you can't break the law. >> excuse me. every agreement has an end. every agreement has to be fair. every agreement has a defraud. we are being defrauded by all these countries. >> it is called free trade and a plank of the republican platform. >> scott, we need fair trade. not free trade. we need fair trade.
3:12 am
it's got to be fair. >> this year's s.a.t. scores came out this month. 60% of the students who took the test are not ready for college. 60%. >> that's terrible. >> how do you fix education? >> one of the things i would do is make education locally based. >> it is. >> not really. common core if you look at jeb bush and others running against me in favor of common core it comes right out of washington. so i will be very focused on education. very important thing for me. >> focused on education, help me understand how a trump administration is going to improve that, that 60%. >> i would have it much more state based and locally based. very important. >> in washington today, house majority leader kevin mccarthy said he will run to succeed john boehner as speaker of the house. mccarthy from california promised fellow republicans that he will lead the fight for conservative principles. no word yet on when the house will vote on a new speaker. >> lawyers for former house
3:13 am
speaker dennis hastert and federal prosecutors revealed today that they're working on a plea deal. hastert is charged with violating banking laws and lying to federal agents. reportedly about paying hush money to some one who accused him of sexual misconduct. >> pope francis returned to the vatican today. on the flight from the u.s., he told reporters, that priests who sexually abused children violate the calling of god. the pope also coined a new word in italian to describe his reception in the u.s., it translates "beyond all limits." also, beyond limits today is the discovery on mars that nasa has announced. chip reid has that. >> reporter: scientists have been puzzled over the past few years by photos from a nasa
3:14 am
satellite showing long black streaks on mars that seemed to flow downhill in warmer months then disappear when extreme cold returns. today, nasa announced the stunning answer. >> mars is not the dry, arid planet that we thought of in the past. >> jim green is director of planetary science. >> liquid water has been found on mars. >> reporter: the water is salty which explains in liquid form in cold temperatures and water on mars raises an intriguing question. how likely do you think it is that today there is some form of life on mars. >> everywhere we go where there is liquid wear it, deep in the earth or in the arid regions we find life. this is tremendously exciting. >> reporter: when many think of life on mars they think of hollywood's version like this. or maybe this. but what scientists are thinking about is this. microbes, so tiny, millions could fit in the eye of a needle.
3:15 am
water on mars though is important for other reasons too. >> so you found water, what are the next steps. what do you plan to do with this information? >> drink it. >> nasa's john grunsfield isn't kidding. water on mars could be a life saver for future astronauts. one estimate of total surface water on mars is it is enough to fill 38 olympic sized swimming pools. that may not soupd -- sound like much, scott, but on twitter someone imaged this exchange. nasa, we found water on mars. california, that's cool. can we have some. >> they need it for the drought. thank you, chip. a former prison worker about to become an inmate. she was sentenced today to up to seven years for helping two convicted murderers escape an upstate new york. anna werner is following this. >> reporter: former prison worker joyce mitchell entered the courtroom in tears and begged for mercy. >> i would wear an ankle bracelet for the rest of my life if i could just go home to my
3:16 am
family. >> reporter: the 51-year-old admitted she helped richard matt and david sweat escape from prison by smuggling in the tools they needed to break out. mitchell said she did it because matt threatened to kill her husband. the judge didn't buy it and said mitchell's actions hurt the community. >> a large portion of the local population were terrorized. >> reporter: more than 1,000 officers hunted the convicted murderers for three weeks. in the end matt was shot and killed by police. sweat was arrested two days later. district attorney andrew wily prosecuted mitchell's case. he says he would have liked a longer sentence. when asked how long -- >> certainly a lot more than seven years. >> reporter: two others still face charges in connection with the case. one of them is escapee david sweat currently in solitary confinement, the other, scott, prison guard, gene palmer, pleaded not guilty to promoting prison contraband. anna werner, thank you. >> a new study could change the

chemotherapy is standard for most breast cancer patients. a new study out today says some don't need it. here's dr. john lapook. >> reporter: in 2010, ann louise puopolo was diagnosed with breast cancer. the kind fueled by estrogen. her tumor analyzed using a test that can help predict recurrence. results showed she was at low
3:21 am
risk, so doctors treated her with hormone blocking therapy alone, sparing her the side effects from what is usually also given, chemotherapy. >> why do that if it wasn't going to give me a different outcome than i would get for not having the chemotherapy. so it made sense to me to opt out of it. >> reporter: today's study in the new england journal of medicine followed 1600 women with hormone driven breast cancer and low risk score. they received hormone blocking therapy but no chemo. after five years less than 1% had their cancer recur in a distant part of the body. breast cancer specialists say this provides the clearest proof of the accuracy of a test that has been used more than a decade. oncologist dr. harold burstein of dana farber cancer center treated puopolo. >> it allows the doctor to look the patient in the eye and say it really looks like you have a good prognosis and chemotherapy is not going to improve prognosis. >> reporter: today's study looked at women with tumors at the lowest level of recurrence.
3:22 am
the next step is to see if chemocan be avoided when the tumor risk is somewhat higher. and the hope is to be able to use this kind of genetic fingerprinting to precisely taylor treatment for wide range of cancers. >> good news for patients, john. thank you very much. you might be surprised to hear where america's future immigrants will be coming from. we'll have that next.

3:28 am
play golf. but two years ago, recovering from another surgery, he was bedridden and started having flash backs. >> the thoughts of not so great experiences from combat just kept coming back. i didn't get to the point of suicide. but i finally understood in those eight weeks at home. i knew that i need help. >> reporter: a friend suggested yoga. >> i was like, no. one, i'm a guy. two, i'm an army guy. three, i don't own any spandex. and no. >> reporter: he finally relented and took the class. >> i got in this warrior pose, i rooted down. i felt this real surge of energy from the earth up into my body. like into my soul. and it shot up. i was like, oh, my god. i get it. it was like the earth was saying where have you been the last ten years.
3:29 am
>> inhale. >> reporter: last year he completed yoga instructor training. >> this infinite source of energy. you can plug into it. >> reporter: now hundreds of people come to his classes. >> i felt if he can do it without legs, what's my excuse. nevins hopes to reach veterans and not veterans alike. >> namaste. >> reporter: a warrior on a mission to save others. elaine quijano, cbs news, new york. >> that's the "cbs overnight news" for this tuesday. for some of you, the news continues. for others. check back with us a little bit later. for the morning news, and "cbs this morning." from the broadcast center in new york city, i'm scott pelley.
3:30 am
welcome to the "cbs overnight news." i'm elaine quuchlt ijano. president obama and russian president vladamir putin sat down for their first face to face talks in a year. the news came hour after they addressed the united nations general assembly in new york. the civil war in syria was a focus for both men. who offered sharply different views on the crisis. here's some of what they said. >> we see an erosion of the democratic principles and human rights that are fundamental to this institution's mission. information is strictly controlled, the space for civil
3:31 am
society restricted. we're told that such retrenchment is required to beat back disorder. that it is the only way to stamp out terrorism or prevent foreign meddling. in accordance with this logic we should support tyrants like bashar al assad who drops barrel bombs to massacre innocent children because the alternative is surely worse. nowhere is our commitment to international order more tested than in syria. when a dictator slaughters tens of thousands of his own people, that is not just a matter of one nation's internal affairs. it breeds human suffering on an order and magnitude that affects us all. like wise when a terrorist group beheads captive thousands,
3:32 am
slaughters the innocent and enslaves women, that's not a single nation's national security problem, that is an assault on all our humanity. i said before and i will repeat, there is no room for accommodating an apocalyptic cult like isil, the united states makes no apology for using our military as part of a broad coalition to go after them. we do so with determination that there will never be a safe haven for terrorists who carry out these crimes. and we have demonstrated over more than a decade of pursuit of al qaeda, we will not be outlasted by extremists. but while military power is necessary, it is not sufficient to resolve the situation in
3:33 am
syria. lasting stability can only take hold when the people of syria forge an agreement to live together peacefully. the united states is prepared to work with any nation including russia and iran to resolve the conflict. but we must recognize that there cannot be after so much bloodshed, so much carnage, a return to the prewar status quo. let's remember how this started. assad reacted to peaceful protests by escalating repression and killing that in turn created the environment for the current strife. so assad and his allies can't simply pacify the broad majority of a population who have been brutalized by chemical weapons and indiscriminately bombing. yes, realism dictates compromise
3:34 am
will be required to end the fighting and ultimately stamp out isil. but realism also requires a managed transition away from assad and to a new leader and inclusive government that recognizes there must be an end to this chaos so the syrian people can begin to rebuild. >> i cannot help asking those who have caused this situation do you realize now what you have done? but i am afraid no one is going to answer that. policies based on belief in exceptionality and impunity have never been abandoned. it is now that the power vacuum created in the middle east and north africa and the emergence of anarchy areas that started to be filled with extremists and terrorists. tens of thousand of militants are fighting under the banners of the so-called islamic state.
3:35 am
its friends include former iraqi servicemen who were thrown out into the streets after the invasion of iraq in 2003. many recruits come from libya, a country whose statehood was destroyed because of a cross violation of the security council resolution and now ranks of radicals are joined by the members of the so-called moderate syrians supported by western countries, first they're armed and trained and then they defect with the so-called islamic state. beside the islamic state itself did not just come from nowhere. it was also initially forged as a tool against undesirable secular regimes. russia has always been consistently fighting against terrorism in all its forms. we provide military and technical assistance to iraq and syria and countries of the region fighting terrorist groups. we think it is an enormous mistake to refuse to cooperate
3:36 am
with the syrian government and its armed forces. fighting terrorism face to face the we should finally acknowledge that no one but president assad's armed forces and militia are fighting the islamic state and other terrorist organizations in syria. we know about all of the problems and contradictions in the region but which are based on reality. dear colleagues, i must note that such an honest frank approach of russia has been recently used as pretext to accuse it of growing ambitions as if those who say it have no ambitions at all. however, it is not about russia's ambitions, dear colleagues, but about the recognition of the fact that we can no longer tolerate the current state of affairs in the word. what we actually propose is to be guided by common values and common interests rather than
3:37 am
ambitions. on the basis of international law we must join etsffor to address the problems that all of us are facing. and create a generally broad international coalition against terrorism. we hope that the international community will be able to develop a comprehensive stability economic recovery of the middle east. then, dear friends, there would be no need for new refugee camps. today the flow of people who were forced to leave their homeland has literally engulfed first neighboring countries and then europe itself. there are hundreds of thousand of them now. and might be millions before long. in fact a new great, tragic
3:38 am
migration of peoples. and it is a harsh lesson for all of us including europe. above all i believe it is of the utmost importance to help restore governments, institutions in libya, support the government of iraq and provide comprehensive assistance to the legitimate government of syria. >> the overnight news will be right back. today you can do everything in just one click, even keep your toilet clean and fresh. introducing lysol click gel. click it in to enjoy clean freshness with every flush. lysol. start healthing. ♪ yeah, click
3:40 am
at. the u.n., president obama called assad a dictator who slaughters tens of thousands of his own people. russian president vladami putin had a different view calling the assad regime the legitimate government. the russian president had more to say last week when he sat down with charlie rose from "60 minutes." >> so you would look to join the united states in the fight against isis, that's part of why you are there. others think that while that may be part of your goal, you are trying to save the assad administration because they have been losing ground and the war
3:41 am
has not been going well for them and you are there to rescue them? >> translator: well you are right. we support the legitimate government of syria. and it is my deep belief that any actions to the contrary in order to destroy the legitimate government will create a situation which you can witness now in the other countries of the region or, in other regions. for instance in libya. where all the state institutions are disintegrated. we see a similar situation in iraq. and there is no other solution to the syrian crisis than strengthening the effective government structures and rendering them help in fighting terrorism. but at the same time urging them to engage in positive dialogue with the rational opposition and conduct reform. >> as you know some of the coalition partners want to see president assad go first. before they will support.
3:42 am
>> translator: i would like to recommend to them the following. they should send this message to the syrian people. it is only the syrian people who are entitled to decide who should govern their country and how. >> president assad -- you support him. do you support what he is doing in syria and what is happening to those syrian people, those many millions of refugees, and the hundreds of thousand of people who that have been killed many by his own force? >> translator: well, tell me, what do you think about those who support the opposition? mainly the terrorist organizations, only in order to oust assad without thinking about what will happen to the country after all of the government institutions have been demolished? today you have repeatedly said that assad is fighting against his own population. but look at those who are in control of 60% of the territory in syria.
3:43 am
it's controlled by either isis or by others. such as al nusra and terrorist organizations recognized as terrorist organizations by the united states and by other states and by the united nations. >> are you prepared to put russian combat troops on the ground in syria if it is necessary to defeat isis? >> translator: russia will not participate in any troop operations in the territory of syria or in any other states. well at least we don't plan on it right now. but we are considering intensifying our work with president assad and with our partners in other countries. >> i come back to the problem that many people look at and they believe that assad helps isis. that his reprehensible conduct against the syrian people using
3:44 am
barrel bombs and worse, is a recruiting tool for isis. and that he was removed, transitioned, at some point, it would be better in the fight against isis, al nusra and others. >> translator: well speaking in a professional language of intelligence services i can tell you this kind of assessment is an active measure by enemies of assad. it is anti-syrian propaganda. >> much has been read into this including this -- that this is a new effort for russia to take a leadership role in the middle east and that it represents a new strategy by you? is it? >> translator: not really, no. more than 2,000 fighters from russia and ex-soviet republics are in the territory of syria.
3:45 am
there is a threat of their return to us the so instead of waiting for their return, we are better off helping assad fight them on syrian territory. so this is the most important thing which encourages us and pushes us to provide assistance to assad. in general we want the situation in the region to stabilize. >> but your pride in russia means that you would look to see russia play a bigger role in the world. and this is just one example. >> well, not the goal in itself. i'm proud of russia. that's true. and we have something to be proud of. but, we do not have any obsession with being a super power in the international arena. >> but you are in part a major power because of the nuclear weapons you have. you a force to be reckoned with. >> translator: i hope so.
3:46 am
i definitely hope so. otherwise, why do we have nuclear weapons at all? >> recent tension between the united states and russia began after ukraine's president was overthrown and fled to russia. putin responded by annexing crimea, leading the u.s. and western allies to impose tough economic sanctions against russia. >> translator: ukraine is a separate and majorer to for us. it is our closest neighbor. we have always said this is our sister country. not only a slavic people. we have common history, common culture. common religion. and many things in common. what i believe is absolutely unacceptable is the resolution of internal political issues in the former ussr republics through color revolutions through coup d'etat, through unconstitutional removal of power. that is totally unacceptable.
3:47 am
our partners in the united states have supported those who ousted the president. >>-up believe the united states had something to do with the ousting of yanokovic, and he had to flow to russia? >> translator: i know that for sure. >> how do you know that for sure? >> translator: i know those people who live in ukraine. we have thousand of contacts with them. we know who and where when, who exactly met with someone and worked with those who ousted yanokovic, how they were supported, how much they were paid, how they were trained, where, in which countries and who the instructors were. we know everything. >> for the record the u.s. government has denied any involvement of the removal of the ukrainian leader the you
3:48 am
respect the sovereignty of ukraine? >> translator: sure. but we want countries to respect the sovereignty of other countries. and ukraine in particular. respect for sovereignty means to not allow unconstitutional action and coup d'etat. removal of legitimate power. >> how will the renewal of legitimate power take place in your judgment -- how will that come about? what role will russia play? >> translator: russia has not taken part and is not going to take part in any actions aimed at removing the government. >>-up have a military presence on the border of ukraine. some have argued there have been russian troops in ukraine? >> translator: well do you have a military presencen europe? >> yes. >> translator: american tactical nuclear weapons are in europe,
3:49 am
let's not forget that. what does this mean? does it mean that you occupied germany? or you transformed occupation forces into nato forces? if we have our military forces on our territory on the border with some state, you believe this is a crime? >> the "cbs overnight news" will be right back. hey buddy, let's get these dayquil liquid gels and go. but these liquid gels are new. mucinex fast max. it's the same difference. these are multi-symptom. well so are these. this one is max strength and fights mucus.
