the foreign minister of russia that if we take the united states for example in russia that he sees them as branches of the european civilization the eastern branch being russian the western branch being the united states and the relationship between russia and nato kind of makes the rules for the relationship in the main matters and one of the biggest stumbling points remains the u.s. is planned for the anti missile defense system in europe and now this discussion is still underway it's actually a deadlock and there are different opinions coming from various sides. of parties in europe stand for unilateral. missile defense system which would include russia and the european union nato and the united states washington says that it's ready to cooperate but it has to have a tough stance always going to its defense while the foreign minister says that this is russia's foreign minister says this issue through etan's the positive relations between these two branches the eastern and the western branch of the european civilization like they said russia and the united states but of course there a

russia is now a very average capitalist state if you want and in russia like in many states we have house us in the apartment buildings which have already been built and they stayed empty sometimes for decades just because people cannot sell these apartments and i think i think that is true and i think the housing issue is very interesting what he did say that he would like to see if you'd like to see he promised that housing prices will come down twenty to forty percent amending on the region you know that if you had twenty to forty percent decrease in housing prices and a lot of places that would be an economic catastrophe so it's going to be a very very it's an important process housing has to become more accessible but it's a very difficult process to manage it's a very complicated economic process has taken on a vested interest and we see very little detail but we wouldn't expect to see this community is about how to do that i would address that question to be true which we do you believe the prime minister or the president of russia does have a mechanism to reduce out the priz

is russia really to challenge. europe it's a very interesting issue and so very interesting question the problem what is the problem why they don't want to give us a little about insurance why for example they would like to have a legally binding document on the reduction of nuclear weapons with the russian federation and the why they are not ready to go about it with such a limited by the insurance. for example i can predict there may be another candidate from republican party called wien for the future elections and for example he can see that i don't keer old political commitments which mr obama could give other national federation could continue all of the. fulfillment of missile defense plans sort we don't want to want to be a hostage of political situation and the white house we will blank to see all in agreement with the united states on a very serious issues like missile defense like nuclear disarmament to be legally binding it's what i mean it's clear and by the way there is one other question if for examp

if russia believes the fence is not needed but it doesn't pose a theoretical threat to russia. my guess is that the russian government will say ok if you want to spend your national treasure this will help you so it solves the political problem and it provides a much more capable defense there with the united states currently building in goods are also much cheaper. the professor believes that the purpose of nato is radar in europe is to track the movements of russian strategic weapons and to monitor russia's new military technologies. the real target could be russia but certainly it makes the people of europe less safe it draws them in in fact as a geo strategic pawn by great powers as they maneuver and use the missile defense shield not as a way to defend your not as a way to defend anybody in fact but to provide a first strike potential capability against the adversary. this is how we are going to train ourselves in order to be ready for any situation . these people crossing a field of kelp have serious worries about the global situation. they feel that as long as nuclear we
