years of self-sacrifice and heroism with those who understand fully that you have to live a. real life stories from world need to. be true nineteen forty five don't auntie dot com. welcome back time for the headlines peeled back reports calls on the washington to own up to the vietnam war the legacy of deadly chemical agent orange which us tonight for decades. some were silent that was how the make the first atomic bomb describe the detonation sixty five years ago which kicked off the cold war on israel changed forever. and seeing double
4:31 am
a new hollywood film starring bin laden spitting image takes a humorous look at the post nine eleven world. well from the very beginning the spy scandal between russia and the u.s. read like the pages of an espionage novel famous author of the frederick forsyth offers his interpretation of the recent covert operation. fear. i'm here with frederick forsyth internationally renowned crime fiction writer seth and we're talking about the recent spy swap between the u.s. and russia where ten spies were deported from the u.s. in exchange for four in russian presence most of all so i thank you so much for talking to r.t. today that this seems to have been a very lengthy process in which no actual secrets were passed on do you think that these particular spies would ever have produced information that would have been of any value well it's difficult to say what they would eventually. manage to get hold
4:32 am
of certainly what they were doing when they were discovered during very quiet suburban lives it does for a lot of people they have not penetrated any major institution like cia. or f.b.i. or the pentagon or some nuclear facility that and any of that they might have been used as me go betweens but one doesn't think that as the primary information source they were nowhere near as sensitive material and these kind of deep sleep i mean what kind of person would do that it seems to be quite a special type of scale it is to do to leave your homeland to go to somebody else's and really. sink in this society to such a degree that you can puff for one of them is an exceptional skill it takes years of practice the idea that they just arrived with no training is nonsense they would have been years in a like an all-american village some more
4:33 am
a person the urals becoming americans over an extended period and then to arrive in a new you may never see your homeland again and that it's a problem for most people terrific sacrifice to make and how serious a threat still think these people will some sleepers in history have indeed been immensely valuable. to the person they're working for by. it's very very unusual most traitors for example spies who spied against russia or the u.s.s.r. during the cold war were themselves russians or ukrainians or you know and traders in the west were british or americans. very rare to find someone who can pass. for me gordon lowndes dale who was the must a mind of what we call the portland bill spy ring many years ago was indeed colonel . of the k.g.b. but he was gordon canadian businessman. and he was asleep but it's very unusual
4:34 am
it's the most unusual. form in which espionage takes place and this is so that it's actually still ongoing just this week we had the arrest of another yet another spy in the united states only twenty three years old which seems extraordinary young what kind of training do you think he would have had at such a young age well i don't know what i don't know how he was able if he was indeed able to plus the thing about america it's an easier. to penetrate than in british society because i mean america is an ethnic melting pot and you can say hey you know i'm a bum a polish immigrant i love america i'm a polish american and i have a name like cobalt ski would also be totally american with a name like of also because it's harder to say i am very open to go and my answer is go back three hundred years in britain when you're not. these things can be checked so you have to have what's called a legend that's going to be very very perfect takes years of working on and usually
4:35 am
has it with gordon lonsdale that was once a golden globe still was canadian boy who died and his entire life story was taken over by the k.g.b. . who created a new one around their own their own men that i was usually done to take over someone who died by. who whose ancestry can be proved. that sides don't do you think that this latest arrests which came off the only others and often we thought that this was in fact david do you think that means that this story may continue i should know i think they probably reached the end i suspect the newcomer the last one was probably something the something of the f.b.i. discovered going through the papers of the one of the ten. but the ten who i think not all of them were known even to each other. i suspect the betrayal if
4:36 am
that's so we're giving away all of them started with a tip off the whole thing to me reeks to pull off and let's not forget the f.b.i. been working for years on them there's wasn't as of a day or monday we saw the go to pop we rest of them saturday they were following them for years and checking them out and checking their backgrounds out and finding obviously of entry flaws that said this is not the person he or she purports to be somewhere i'd imagine in there they got the name of the eleventh. do you think that the the arrest of these people at that time was possibly most of a sense i don't know i it's all because i'm. it came just. crime as a president medvedev was. sort of sharing a hamburger with the american president so maybe the american president barack obama wasn't very pleased that it would should be at that moment. it could be
4:37 am
a decision that the director the f.b.i. said we delay perhaps he thought they might fly the coop if they didn't do something quickly but anyway they were there was one shot of the two heads of government cheerily sharing a hamburger about three days later. this is a humiliating story for four from moscow the ten eleven of their agents picked up one got away to cyprus. but that can can not have been available very embarrassing for moscow and let's talk about that one that got away what do you think could have happened to him obviously he skipped bail was gone oh one has to remember cyprus he got to sort of cyprus where he was arrested and some magistrate with more as presume a bigger bank account than he's got brains gave him bail despite the protests of the american consul inside the courtroom. as soon as you go bail he vanished well for obvious reasons i mean there are a lot of wealthy russians who live in cyprus and some have you private airplanes
4:38 am
and some have private yachts and i think probably only he was on one europe very fast to see him go. this is a thing that was sold very quickly more quickly than it would have been for example during the cold war why why do you think that was what was behind the solving of it i think the reason. the original arrests the trial or the arrangements with stream equipped and the decision to swap them was very quick. from america's point of view i think derives the fact that they were they they realized they actually weren't sort of top top top level people. they were an embarrassment to moscow. they were almost a joke to the american media who couldn't take them seriously i mean guy you can say what have you done in ten years we have penetrated the golf club you know it's it's not actually. i think that was behind the let's get that out of here. and it's
4:39 am
also the muscovite let's get them back quickly and cover this rather embarrassing episode up as best we can that's what they're doing. benefited the most from this hastily arranged swap over the usa usa it was a propaganda coup. it reminded i mean the watching world that spying isn't over still goes all both sides are at it and they know they are we all know they are but perhaps we need reminding because it's been twenty years since the end of the cold war many of us for maybe their spy anymore in that way are they do and so do we. the media during this whole for all we became fixated with on the chapman do you think she's the image of the new international spy. i was. most readers already intrigued and amused by the energy i was officer which is a pretty woman. and there is this almost media fixation of the
4:40 am
matahari sexy spy. when i was doing spy novels i mean everybody thinks expire you must be jerky we cajun you use a call go but the very few professional intelligence all of those. that i ever met middle age women in tweets i mean there's not actually. anything like an entrapment so i think i'm chapman with that short of a looking over right shoulder. to really really turned on the media but let's face it i think anna chapman ever either. seduced you know as a senior officer or slept with a politician or security any blinding piece of information a boss don't the most go so. as she seems to want to come back here to live in britain which you live for five years and that she's
4:41 am
a british national because she married a british. i hope that they allow her to come back was a spy anymore and why shouldn't she come back i i take a light hearted if you of the whole episode because i just i don't think any any real damage was done to the u.s. i want to bring. mr chapman. what would you think about this is a plot for a novel who would make a wonderful comedy novel yes. almost a comedy of errors. and i think i could have readers laughing at the whole idea of crazy espionage all spies what they used to be. more quotes of what they used to be . we what's that state. used to be much more serious because this place if there had been a nuclear war between the u.s. or warsaw pact on the one side and make on the other basically between the usa and
4:42 am
the u.s.s.r. we would all have been facing the wipe out of civilization it was that bad that seriously called a de mutually assured destruction. i don't think anyone is is seriously thinking before one instant the model of moscow is going to even try a first nuclear strike even though they have nuclear weapons and the same applies to the usa i think what's a state is not the wipe out of civilization it used to be that's why it was when it was very very fraught in the cold war it's not for us people have been quite shocked by this particular story because you know your man on the street didn't realize that that was still spies up racing in you know between between the u.s. and america do you think we still need spies what the media. i certainly i don't think he would you would have us explain to any major government the they don't need spies because every major governor would say look.
4:43 am
you know the rival culture is to us they do have secrets it would be immensely helpful to us to learn about them. intentions plans technical breakthroughs new discoveries particularly in the weapons field. that are just a part of the rivalry one tiny puppy there's a part mr forsyth thanks very much for talking to all day.
