these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. trying to corporations rule the day. thanks for being with us on how the hour here's a quick look at what's been making headlines this week russia and china blocked the western backed one draft resolution on syria with moscow slamming the tax for an unbalanced approach and denial of dialogue between the government and opposition in egypt riots returned as anger at the authorities failure to prevent a deadly soccer brawl spills over into four days of violent clashes that have already seen a dozen people killed. and hundreds of thousands march in russian cities in the spine of subzero temperatures with both pro and anti-government rallies and record

breaking numbers and head of next month's presidential election. the so-called reset in russia u.s. relations has been struggling to make headway with the ongoing dispute over america's controversial european missile defense shield there's more on that right now in our special report. the most vital national security interests of the united states would be most effectively realized not through hostility to rush through cooperation with it. i think russia and the united states can we just settlement of the establishment of a global missile defense system. this plan research is in jeopardy even the new strategic arms reduction treaty between moscow and washington has been unable to help. at

a time of warmer bilateral relations nato's top brass decided to deploy a missile defense system protecting europe but they were setting up too close to russia's borders and moscow didn't view it as a friendly gesture. we want to defend the whole europe not just some european countries with one or european allies and friends to join in on missile defense strategy. in the event of a situation with a european missile defense system becoming unfavorable to russia we reserve the right to take no further steps in the nuclear disarmament area. the kremlin has repeatedly demanded that nato guarantees that the european missile defense shield would pose no threat to russia's strategic interests sofa the west has refused to cooperate with must go on the issue.

intercontinental ballistic missiles are transported through snowbound russian forests under the cover of darkness. shrouded in secrecy the people in charge need to perform training drills and test the hardware on the roof. suddenly the convoy comes to a halt there's a forest street blocking the. crossing it's quite a challenge for the drivers of motor vehicles weighing many tons. as specially considering carrying nuclear warheads. make sure that the heavy launches safely reach the opposite bank with the most

hazardous huddle behind it the convoy is on the move again. as the convoy forges ahead to its destination they leave the forest and pass through villages the sound of powerful engines thundering past is becoming a common occurrence lately for local people. we need such missiles to defend russia. we would be crushed if we didn't have them. that's all there is to it. when you hear them rumbling past you get a sense of great might there is no dealt we will be able to defend our country.

without an agreement with the united states on missile defense and in the face of potential military threats russia was compelled to think of countermeasures. the country has declared in the past that it may withdraw from the strategic arms reduction treaty and said it will introduce measures to counter the missile defense . we will go ahead with the deployment of our missile defense system it is obvious that this presupposes the deployment of its components in poland in romania or a station in turkey obviously this will also until these demolition of the base in spain for american ships equipped with the system. it is obvious that the missile defense system will be targeted at the russian federation rather than some mythical middle eastern countries possessing a virtual missiles. at least

fifteen countries around the world have been involved with the nato missile defense shield. their radar stations in denmark and britain which is also host to interceptor missiles. canada two is going to join the project anti missile functions will be given to norad the agency responsible for north america's air and space defense. japan has decided to assist the nato missile defense shield its taking part in the manufacture of a just interceptor missiles. japan is going to build a forward based radar station on its territory. a similar radar station has already been built in turkey. the czech republic rumania hungry are ready to allow nato as missile defense complexes to be placed on their territory. if that were america forward based american military presence which means the deployment of

bases in post is so. republics notably. element of global domination as a powerful. military base. russia has taken adequate measures to such actions but. finds its activities to its own territory. with its capable of overcoming.

station. to protect a space. station is classified the equipment. of special. power source and water supply ventilation system. the military installation protects the region from attack by ballistic missiles to be controlled by russia's president who is also commander in chief of the armed

forces. some time ago russia suggested to the united states that they jointly control space over the middle east using a similar radio transmission station as above. if nato has told us agreed to cooperate they would receive reports of any unauthorized iranian missile launches that washington would see as a threat to america. missiles capable of hitting targets in the little beast in eastern europe this poses a threat to u.s. interests in the region. i don't agree with the u.s. government belief that this is a serious problem. and is doing is they're using very simple. nothing simple about rockets but the using very early generation rocket technology the only rockets they could build that could reach the united states would be

enormous in size and not be mobile this city would have to be launched from fixed locations where the united states and russia russia join the united states could monitor these these missiles many in the united states and just like the views of thehotel. he maintains that the european missile defense system is ineffective the scientist estimates that it has no chance of protecting the united states from a rainy and missiles instead it creates problems for russia if russia believes is the fence is not needed. but it doesn't if you're ready for russia. my guess is that russia. will say 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 than with the united states currently building

incidentally much cheaper. the professor believes that the purpose of nato is radar and 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 a 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. have serious worries about the global situation.

they feel that as long as nuclear weapons exist they need to know how to protect themselves. if they survive in the face of a real threat they need to have everything necessary closer to. the coach tells them that a compass and a mobile phone unlikely to help. the problem is that we can only get our bearings by. looking at tree branches there are more branches on the side where they are exposed to sunlight. the people involved in a survival experiment will have to. training mission is to reach

a military base where they can hide from the harmful effects of radiation. starts its way across the ocean. now our team goes to the. representative. for local businesses are striving to build the aviation capital of russia. to the limit. welcome to the. russia.

today. these are the images. from the streets of canada. brighton if you need monsoon from feinstein freshens. princetown tontine dot com.

and. other exams results from family live in a military camp that is off limits to the public. though i do keep going keep going on yourself keep going. alexander serves in a secret unit manning miss sons when he's off to always makes a point of spending time with his wife and children. he's well aware of the

standoff between nato and russia. it makes him apprehensive about what kind of future awaits his sons. as there was a room of course my wife and i often talk about the future. yes we would like to see a bright future without crises. and. we want everybody to live in peace and we want everything to be just fine. the i.c.b.m.'s are accompanied by come back to school. today we have a. very difficult conditions for a thrust forward i do hope everything will pass off without any incidents. trucks carrying nuclear. going to quiet. the snowy forest provides good for them together. as a cold go to russia. they need to be ready for action at any moment.

come on major. unit is. fully in. the aggregate for. four haste. the intercontinental ballistic missile known as the twenty five to make. a twenty. two meters in diameter and weighs about forty five tons of. despite its impressive propulsion the russian missile still hits targets with absolute precision. is making sure that the missile launches. moving military home. this is a highly accurate weapon is a range of up to ten thousand kilometers and lands within not more than two hundred

metres from targets. you certainly realize that for the purposes of a nuclear strike this means a direct hit. the defense system is not directed against it this would be the wrong move as the matter consumes the defense of need two countries. russia feels compelled to take countermeasures because the united states has refused to give legal guarantees demonstrates that the deployment of the american missile defense system in europe is not directed against russia. nato countries are in the mood to list strips the deployment of them military installations to europe. new american military bases may soon be set up in kazakhstan. turkmenistan and tajikistan.

about once russia has been encircled by military bases a new geo political reality will emerge we need to take this reality into account already today but take measures to control potential threats to our security. meanwhile the view that the missile defense shield is too expensive is getting increasing currency inside the united states itself it provides financial backing to the armed forces moreover the project is making millions of dollars from nato subcontractors inferiors countries. between two thousand and five and two thousand and nine the us has spent fifteen billion dollars and the price paid for the entire program that we are dealing with right now here in two thousand and eleven is another hundred fifty billion dollars that's larger than many country's entire military budgets. some of the funding for the

missile defense system in europe is being put to use in poland and north the small village of rijeka is home to a high security installation. the base used to be manned by polish air force pilots soviet made fun to. still serve as a reminder of the fact that poland was once a member of the warsaw pact an organization formed off to world war two by the us says in response to nato. the old warplanes will be scrapped by the u.s. troops who arrive here shortly they'll be bringing missiles with them. local residents have already been told that they won't be getting any compensation for having the new arsenal placed so close to their homes. and we're not overjoyed at the prospect of these weapons being deployed a few hundred metres from our homes. you've got the missiles will pose a threat to the local population of over one thousand people.

elisabetta demand sca a schoolteacher came to reject a book from warsaw a long time ago she knows only too well what the villages think about the military installation. that means the most noise of our service most of the people even here are farmers. and of course there were very war it's an absolute hearing news of deployment for the time being though the base and we. wait. but even first graders in the village of logic of a are aware of the military base . but the schoolchildren don't fully understand the threat so that teaches bring them up to date in the classroom. lingo good morning you found three steak you see it's. today we start

with a history lesson in. elizabeth a demand teaches her pupils about military conflicts she insists the people should never forget history's lessons if future conflict is to be avoided. the military base in russia give a good. in full view of the school as the teacher tells her pupils about world war two they visualize the base as a symbol of the past the present and the future. just the smell of german troops once used the territory just outside who. later polish pilots served here. no doubt you know that an american military base is going to be set up here. and there is going to be in you and tree in the history books because of it. as tony and sculpt to come and transform the legacy of past wars into works of art

on the shores of the gulf of finland has found hundreds of scene lines made during world war two and the cold war the artist uses them to make remarkable objects this mine for example will become a fireplace. i think it will make a nice fireplace. the seaman's picked up by come in can no longer sink ships the artist so-called military style doesn't mean he's succumbed to fashion instead it's an attempt to create works of art using something that was originally intended for destruction and murder. you can make anything you like from these shaped mine it's. you can make sculptures out of them you can even make.

those from news bulletins that missile defense components will soon be installed close to his country. he says. can easily be turned into beautiful sculptures. the amount of effort spent on making such weapons would be much better spent funding the arts. the people involved in this experiment testing their capacity for survival in a nuclear off the mouth have finally reached their destination and abandoned military. they need to take a breather and near a camp fire. the coach knows that this kind of training is useful in any case participants to

strengthen their skills and prepares them for any emergency in their regular daily lives. there is a growing number of people who want to learn survival skills even if nothing catastrophic happens they now have a different psychological attitude. this will prepare them for other small emergencies but. those who have gone through survival training school a fully aware of the fact that the location of their exercise is fully protected. offices at the radar station including major. control the entire space. a european russia. the outer space control center has given instructions to track an artificial earth satellites and. all modern racial information is fed to the outer space control center. of the first so i get

a quiet classification official it says lloyd dismissed fourteen fifty as m of three hundred thirty three. the stuff makes no secret of the fact that the russian radar transmitter sees european air space in great detail. on the station's unique radar tracks even submarine launched missiles in the barren sunlight sees the sea of a whole sky and around the north pole. our system is being expanded in response to the expansion of the european missile defense shield. the the aim is to match the measures being taken in europe that the new stations are being commissioned here to respond to nato as activities. thrown at them. we will buy new means limited or alter our plans for the deployment of missile defense components in europe.

russia has not closed the deal it will continue dialogue with the united states and nato on the missile defense system it is ready for practical cooperation in the sphere.
