an expert on the region as politics she comes from moscow state university of international relations hello to you so russia has been very active in asia recently both politically and economically does it seem that moscow is perhaps focusing more on the east than on the west. well i would not say likely is that. there is much more focus on. the west but i would rather say that it's a sign of normal foreign policy normalization no foreign policy or brush only one side and on the other side to normalization of russia's perception of the world like a country like russia should courage and eight both the west don't want to see one so. my judgment is that it is a good sign that russia is the. present. in the east and in the west now many other countries in the region wanted russian help in establishing a nuclear power plant why did russia choose vietnam. well i think that. the very first reason is that it now is a stable current three second one that is that. this is a reliable partner with russia has a long history often to write interconnection in direction and productive to ration that

we're now joined by alexander o'sullivan of the dean's advisor for international issues at moscow state university good to see you sir so russia says that it's international terrorism that's behind the recent attacks of the country where they are coming from and we know that al qaeda core sport or criminal network and training camps are well know where the items of location and so we can say that the terrorists come from pakistan from afghanistan especially of course border territories now it's easier to fight and to be within one's own borders so you do you think it's still possible to fight international terrorism taking into account as you were saying the war efforts of the u.s. in afghanistan right so i think it's possible but if the coalition is not concentrated all in afghanistan the coalition has to be there has to be worldwide coalition focused on the central asian region or only in north africa region central african region and north caucasus the us has never confirmed that al-qaeda is present in russia's north caucuses yet it has said that one of the world's most wanted terrorists the ca
