russia close off from parts to. live in a country that don't understand that there's more violence in the streets of this country than there are in the streets in afghanistan or baghdad. then one night in desperation become a brace of. good bye as it comes. to the. forms. crowd gathers momentum. down the streets of the. top stories this hour naughty polls push me to lots of causes popularity rating at historic lows but critics say no president is taking france down the path of imperialism with military interventions in libya and ivory coast this comes just ahead of next year's election comes. a major terrorist leader was killed in southern russia after a routine i didn't check turns into a major firefight and police say he was involved in the deadly bombings in moscow. and politics in finland is threatening to ruin the hopes of the bailout for other financially stricken. e.u. countries nationalists made major gains at the latest parliamentary elections and threaten to veto rescue packages from nations like. that wit

sure did monitor the russian private continued so what was the tendency in russia how did russia according to the polls react to that to the whole situation after the tragedy i absolutely agree with mr chairman so the russians directed nature really and in a very human. way and there was no any other way to react and i like this approach that mr chairman started not with the tragedy but at least with the first of september and i saw them tonight or would this really get us the plot them in poland because our approach and to each other across this appeasement if you like between russia and poland it started. national there then this tragic story in somalia and and we created quite a lot before it to build this mutual confidence in all our aggression and polish elites and those parts of this is sorry to those who feel. a style towards each other and that was way up to the moment of the. accident we were moved somehow a piece to be moved. with a better understanding of each other and that is why probably because of the special out reaction it was so nature will so prompt saw it live and then

seven in terms of global economic power well whether these russia skeptics like it or not russia is still there and if you whether you use purchasing power adjusted g.d.p. or whether you use dollar exchange rates the russian economy is still at the end of two thousand and ten is still depending on which data set you look at the eighth of a ninth largest economy in the world so it's clearly part of this group people criticizing russia the russian government is too much involved in the economy but if we look at china going to say i'm going to say. it's a tough comparison once again if you're looking through the lens of the washington consensus one might be very critical in fact one might be very critical of all these countries in india basically the banking system is completely controlled by the state completely so. you you have countries where the role of government is much more into to the economy than one normally would associate with north america or europe and india and india the even changing heads of private balance and you're going to look at right right good point nobel prize winne

all major world car companies are present in russia. they are indispensable part of the russian automotive industry. right now we are putting up new demands on local sourcing this is not aese, simple dialogue with our partners, but in general, they understand our demands and they are making it a step forward and they have a pretty good local sourcing. we should have an output not at 25,000 but at 300,000 cars. the numbers are important because when you have the numbers that high it makes economic sense to relocate production. and our counterparts understand that both on the engine and auto parts, high level of local sourcing is our approach to building ia technological invention. in ship building and pharmaceuticals and medical equipment. for example, we give $1 a million contracts to foreign companies, for pharmaceuticals and medical equipment. and we have to be adamant in our desire to have foreign partners relocate their production to russia. before 2020, we will spend 140 billion rubles on our medical industry and pharmaceutical ind

in makes russia an additional reason to make it look attractive. and if you remember in the spring of two thousand is the subprime crisis was a mining russia was billed as a safe haven of course crisis hit russia a lot harder than anyone was expecting and now we're back in the same position i mean the. on a mental so the country rock solid tiny day it's got a budget deficit which is shrinking rapidly. almost back to where they were before the crisis and so on it looks very sort of it but the point i think here is underestimate him and russia is seen as a commodity play however in the meantime it's the consumers that are becoming the driving force of the economy and they account for more than half of the g.d.p. and one something we haven't touched on it is that unlike the other emerging markets it's still trading heavy discount the valuations are still much lower than in all the other emerging markets and yet over the last ten years russia performed every other emerging market by a factor of four of the last decade russia. seven hundred percent and

last year russia's second largest. drop two percent. the recent gains continue to drive russian stock markets upwards but davis asset management says it's still not enough to convince foreign investors to join. as long as we have weak dollar as long as. we have persistently high quality demand which seems to be the case russia in general is is actually in a very good position from that standpoint the problem for the russia are related not to. business it's related to individuals it's related to policy it's related to your an absence of additional organs and systems in place which make it i think in general much less attractive for foreign investors to put money in russia which is why our s.d.i. is just completely timidness and that is change russia's largest ever survive financial corp systemic china and india to develop its high tech business and company plans to set up joint ventures with chinese part as including leading telecom that it's not just china itself is it is a very very large market so we want to you know sort of them to e

from russia is just maybe. two communities criticism slowed down you see just maybe not not not not actually in such a way just so small that they will be seen that there is a growing disarray between the world powers over the libyan east and this is what we can expect from us but definitely will not support no question about the main issue today but what we see there are other things on the table as well nuclear safety being one of them what's likely to come out of that today. let me remind you that on humans was a must to coincide so with that twenty five cents worth of. catastrophe and you knew that russia's president would need to do is due to his that key he would be jaron by president lukashenko from bill or lucy and ukrainian leader. so definitely nuclear safety. or legend and. what's going on in japan i mean for also reminds us that we have to take action but this is a totally separate story see and definitely humankind is on the crossroads with regard to this. alledge. but this is a separate story so y

many people in russia are feeling that russia has been actually stamped into the fall of pharaoh because when they voted to play as they do was to protect civilians to stop while at the same libya but what was seen now while i'm still here is escalating and never cancers are supporting one party or the civil war that is they can place in libya as you said you were saying you know the initial purpose of this so u.n. resolution one ninety seven three was that of a humanitarian mission but now it becomes clear to many of the alliances is that intervening for regime change you suggest a civil war taking place but also you say there are perhaps some moscow's expectations have been dashed what implications you think this could have on relations between the alliance and russia you know i don't think it will influence russian. alliance relations there in march because there are many other issues there to russia and a major have to call the rage you see this is fighting drug trafficking and fighting terrorism and so on barges off cause this way of conducting international relations doesn't improv

there was a major breakthrough in the fight against terror in russia this week the country's security forces killed two top terrorists in the north caucasus both had links to al qaida and were believed to be behind many attacks in russia north caucasus corresponding with you know question of reports this week russia's north caucasus witnessed a number of successful and to terre haute rationed last sunday a key militant leader is that you'll believe john up was killed in an aerial strike in that russia until terrorists committees the most wanted the market has personally points of what is done as the hat of militants in dagestan in the last year now it's also believed that the village on up was the wolf in almost every terror attack that happened in the region and was also linked to the most school month trouble makes last year he was among the four terrorists that were killed a week ago and the hailed the operation a success and sad that the militants only understand the language of force. some of the militants are willing to engage and they reject us when we urge them to lay down wea

in russia as i in space scientists prepared one veil an ambitious telescope project over ten years in the making that will look deep into the cosmos than ever before. russian officials have confirmed one of the figureheads for islamic radicalism in southern russia has been killed widely known as. he's been linked to a series of terrorist attacks including last year's moscow metro bombings north caucuses correspondent maybe in a couple of years now following the latest. two cars were stopped on a sunday night at a checkpoint in dagestan but after the driver refused to open the car and a fire the police fired back and at the end of four terrorists including of the militants a leader is that i believe ali jato four were killed the un cording to the national anti terrorist committee underwent training in the top center in change now back in one thousand nine hundred ninety eight these terrorists that were killed on sunday night in dagestan were also claimed responsibility for a number of terrorist attacks in a drug is down an across the north caucasus was also claimed responsibility for t

russia. what do you have for us. russia china are strongly criticizing the violence in syria since according to some reports over five hundred people have been killed through. these violent protests but russia is saying that this is still not enough threat to global security in fact if the international community was to intervene that's could give way to even more violence and the stamina wise the entire region even more the russian foreign ministry is calling on a syria to find and punish all those responsible for civilian deaths but there's a lot of uncertainty on what's really going on in syria because first of all foreign media is not allowed there's a lot of speculation that some footage from some of the protests may have been fabricated and reports that it's not only the authorities who are using the excessive force but the protesters as well so russia at the moment is saying all of this looks like an imitation to take war in a civil war which no one knows how long may last. year who was a young man in our view

apologized to russia the state department's excuse we pressed the wrong button on the fax machine. to be really for all of. notifying romania instead of russia to observers this seemed a joke on the day of the guilty verdict the most important question why this trial is being held on u.s. territory remains unanswered still is the issue that was decided before trial. here can and should give manufactured jurisdiction which the church decided pretrial against. that i believe the state if it. can be the basis. for an appeal cannot be filed until after the sentencing but hopes are dim he was appeal courts are generally reluctant to reverse decisions made by jury court the sentencing of sinjar some cars expected three months on july twenty eighth he will find out his destiny on u.s. soil his russian pilot faces some twenty five years or life sentence behind bars country where he committed. such a trip in our hearts. i think his case has been likened to that of another russian that extradited to the u.s. mint that country to boot he was arrested in thailand on trafficking charges he's on

i think russia has a very bad p.r. broad and so i want to come and see for myself and to for my job i have the possibility to come here and so i just decided to come to moscow. regarding germany and russia you know over the past five hundred years it's been a rollercoaster of a relationship hasn't it yes from the early settlements here in moscow where peter the grades who open the russia are basically two year old or and catherine the great as well german princes being the emperors of rusher the relations between russia and germany i think have been always excellent apart from some areas where we will we did not but i wouldn't that sorry i think they were out there almost like two million germans living in russia before the revolution yes i'll try to get them off the delusional cause it went down but now and now a days after these leave the solid empire with going up and up again and whatever it is he's going to enjoy here in moscow exhibit is that it's like there's no special drawn on a treaty deal so this is very act

a doctor to help him die is officially forbidden in russia therefore. when i start asking who could kill he could facilitate a suicide nobody even the most zealous youth major supporters very said that they would do it themselves because they will become murderers of a good order from the point of view of russian legislation no from the point of view of international law or ethic norms in euthanasia be justified. there is a huge debate and where the terminal patients have the rights to and their own life to escape chronic pain as against euthanasia and they are the majority claim on other things that even hopeless cases can sometimes be the recklessly killed at a voice from behind bars when miracles rarely happen they change their perspective shrug usual balmoral if they know that the rest of their lives will be suffering was the reason to prevent them from doing that especially those sentenced to life in prison and i get many letters from these people they ask for death as life becomes unbearable conditions there are awful so why why not. for a strong
