what are the defense implications of a potential space race? >> this may be controversial, and my director of communications will probably be sweating now, but i do not view the chinese as a threat in terms of space. they are very capable. they have a model that is on orbit right now that they will use as the first part of human- tended space station. they have a capsule but they used to carry cruise to orbit. hopefully everyone in here knows they have had three successful human missions. they have actually done a space walk. they have walked through the gemini program. they have made it through the gemini program. they have rendezvoused and dr ocked. sometime this year they will fly another anunmanned operation. i do not look at them as a competitor as much as i do a potential partner for further development of humankind. we right now cannot work with them bilaterally because i am prohibited by law, but all of my international partners do. i am the internal -- he eternal optimist, but i am also a realist. we're the only ones not working with th

about because proviso is that they will have to find in order for these countries to deal with the potential economic impact also there are doubts of whether these will actually have the desired effect because china is the biggest firing an oil at it so far it has not agreed to the e.u. or us sanctions and if the e.u. and us don't want to or china may well just step in and buy the oil of iran and so there's a question of whether this will actually be effective and also oil markets have already reacted that we're going to see if the sanctions are implemented will be more than. two million barrels of oil off of international markets it means prices will go up and it means prices of goods will go up and the straits of hormuz again there is a potential for conflict there iran has threatened to block that and that's where twenty percent of the world's oil tankers pass through and the u.s. already has aircraft carriers there monitoring the situation so it does increase the possibility of conflict. now ten minutes past the hour here in moscow that was artie's test are still air reporting croatia is
