most popular elected official in the country. we've also seen in the past 18 months, a division within the ruling party within the movement towards socialism. this is something that does not bode well. the unity of the different producing sectors of bolivia is extremely important. so we hope that this moment this, this moment of attention. this moment of the showdown of the different class forces in the country brings back both present in our city and the former and probably future present enable morales in a show of unity. we've seen the social movements come into the streets across the country to resist with what looks like and excite, expected military cool. did at this point, does not look successful. just returning to your 1st down, straight down a while being and what the us considers. it's backyard. bolivia has recently been leaning towards partnerships with russia and china essentially making decisions for
8:08 pm
itself. do you see that that, that kind of swing in the concrete being an issue? a no question, eunice, this is a big blow against multi polarity. it's no secret that washington has turned everything to all the throne, the democratically elected governments in nicaragua, in in cuba. now for 65 years, there's been a have been war against that as well as since 1999 in bolivia has been a key country in this boulevard. in our equation in momentum. we've heard both lopez over at ward in mexico and see, oh my gosh. so this allies in her door is denouncing this. who attends? if there is a military home, it comes in, it's a power. this will be to the chagrin of the boulevard in kemp and something that washington would try to take advantage of. they already have the li,

8:12 pm
a tremendous amount of receives it has become quite evident that to the members of the public filling system the need for him to make more positions. she runs a government, but he also needs to feel when the people are spoken. those are some of his words asked me to see that she will not be signing the boat and to move. what do you mean by this city became in part of the costs to be controversial, fine, and so what's what have increased the taxes and price is a face of goods and as a says, so items following that protest, i'm rocked to the capital of know b, and police open fire on crowds around parliament. some protesters even managed to enter upon them in the also ball to keep the demonstrations going until the high schools. and i missed those classes with and to ride police in the capital off can yeah,
8:13 pm
the medical association even confirm that at least 13 people have been killed in that protest. the move by the president could be seen as an attempt to try and de escalate tensions. but essentially, the presidency is kenya is impossible to listen. it states but, and we have pete. can those to be here the that that the word and try to pro 10 da da da da. dominic would pay them napkins. government of $500000000.00 last week today, found out that by the much with lots of data on the d model country in front of the discount. but of that, that full really aim to integers, unpopular attached proposals that to the reason for so much and the across the
8:14 pm
nation. the proposal consisted off with tax reforms and increases on monetize digital content creation. tax increases on digital payments like bank transfers and digital money payments, which will take increases on braid and visible. and those are particularly all key thing in the country this quite reliant on the mobile money. and this is the reaction from some of those citizens. we are here to the best interests of our children. the problem we want to walk you through. this is the pause. this finance bill bill will be demonstrations every day until the government gives us accountability or fall, texas. we just want them to be accountable for the grading on the face. i'm sure that the government who is kind of here to help people who
8:15 pm
are not, we're not human close to the president. the constant attacks increases in can you one of the many reasons why the by didn't administration the i am if and as the international financial institutions were quite happy with prisons until at the same time he has been forced to clean the competing demands of, of linda such as the item april, which have a, it's the government of kenya to cut this is to obtain more financing any hard to push the population. so it will be quite interesting to see and yeah, how deluxe will i be able to move at to, to this move together. so now we're at least 14 people were killed in school buildings this week by is really strikes that is according to palestinian authorities. a warning you may find the following. images, distressing footage from the scene in kansas city shows people pulling the bodies of children from the blazing ruins of the building. local schools,
8:16 pm
helping used uh shelters by scores of civilians. however, the idea of claims that targeted from us members has been using the sites as cover for their operations in the nearby city of bay blah. here, authorities say the idea has bomb the building with at least 40 people inside, including many women and children. rescuers have been scrambling to find a poll survivors from the rubble down the across, and the westbank is really troops. i've carried out a fresh series of raids, detaining dozens of palestinians. we discussed the ongoing developments as well as some posts where prospects with gals and journalists rami, i'm a, i think i must have things to take to the lead on guys, i like always liked it for the 7th of october, the same time looking for another product if you need to go to the left for the ceiling so that the left up on the senior movement. so of course is a, is thinking about the creating a new policy in, in the more they can come to. busy the photos from us will make you an easy slider
8:17 pm
without get sure that they will take the leads of the, in the future for the left. make sense for the, for machine info from her mouth. thoughtful is, i think, just to know and this is coming before the united nations, but the without any practice and then and, and dig around because of that, how much accept this decision. but without doing anything we want to make it happen also maybe is red, accept any of this as soon as settling with those very little premium bundle doesn't mean that they. ready make any useful things to end this. so the people inside of the, um, of course the people inside the easy way looking for let's use land looking for and attending days of 80 hostages through their homes. and also we are looking to attend assuming young people inside the house because also the outlet component, cnn hostages, also know after a 14 year long,
8:18 pm
legal, thoughtful, and almost 2000 days behind bars. julia massage has walk free on this, not home in australia. this is the moment he was met by his family, a camera report, the, the the, the, the, you can imagine the emotion there, while the wiki likes funder meeting necessary pit, stop on a remote pacific island, where he appeared in court on pled guilty to a single charge of conspiracy. as per deal struck with washington, the us judge their sentence and the time served the, the
8:19 pm
yeah, as you heard there a sounds could be seen leaving the court. we met free meals through over a decade of bustling extradition to the us. and while his saga is finally over, his legal team sees the case of his showing impact showing the lens. washington will go to limits, attempt to close criminalize journalism. unprecedented in the united states to use the espionage act to criminally. prosecute a journalist for a publisher. it's in the more than a 100 year history of that law. it is never been used in this fashion. julian spent years in bill marsh. no one should spend a day in prison for giving the public news worthy and important information. in this case, information that the united states government had committed war crimes. underneath that, there is an issue of, you know,
8:20 pm
how he changes for you. what do you have to do? how we have to bend disney if you like, to accept a criminal conviction. and this goes to the heart of the debate. now, you know, uh, the united states will maintain that julian assigned. just notice as the a 7, a criminal. this has huge impact on journalism, on a global scale. the united states, of course, was the engine of the case against the julian assign, so it's understandable that amount of with health problems with the young family who would spend, you know, you know, almost 15 years, essentially imprisoned 7 years, the ecuadorian embassy, remember at, and then a bell in marshall you security prison. anyone who knows anything about bell marsh or a security problem. this is a very green place, rapists and murderers and terrorist. it's a bit as secure a place you could put anybody have julia and such as a journalist. quite a gentle ok. so this did so the dom match the brutality of the whole engine behind
8:21 pm
this one of his lawyers at outlining the reality of the deal and the impact that this deal will have going forward on, on global journalism for years. the us government has claimed that these publications did great harm today in court of the united states. government admitted that there is not a single person anywhere that they can produce that was actually harmed buddies, publications. in order to when he's freedom, joanne pleaded guilty to a conspiracy to commit espionage for publishing. evidence of us will crimes, human rights abuse, human rights, abuse, and us wrong doing around the world. this is journalism. this is the criminalization of journalism. and while the plato does not set a traditional president, that's not a court decision. the prosecution itself, that's a president that can be used against the rest of the media for the process in a very dangerous place. it's not, it's not evidence that it will move
8:22 pm
towards more protections, but rather less that would have been the is only good outcomes for the press in general. if, if the us government had abandoned this case entirely, nobody from the united states a culpable in the crime is the wiki licks expose the julian assign. she has dedicated his life to expose it. nobody has been charged with anything. you've got well over a 1000000 civilians dead in afghanistan, iraq, syria, libya, the, the list goes on and on and on. so the mind who expose the crimes is never criminal . the people carried out the crimes which he exposed are completely blame is as it seems. so again, it's gonna come back to the mechanism by which the max of taking their pound of flesh you feel like you most and you need to us, you must accept that you are criminal and it's very difficult to see how anybody wouldn't have accepted this deal. after such a long time in solitary confinement, most brutal conditions that he had to take the deal due to his health. but the big
8:23 pm
issue here is, what does this mean for global journalism? what does it mean for the pursuit of truth? meanwhile, interestingly, i trove of more than $44000.00 e mails on the wiki leaks website has mysteriously gone off line just hours after julia massage was released. now the files detailed hard leading us democratic party figures conspired to support hillary clinton over bernie sanders for the 2016 presidential nomination r t. corresponding killer moping in new york city picks up the story. as julia sanchez, 14 year ruling a legal battle reached its conclusion, we now see that thousands of hacked emails from the democratic national committee have been removed from the website. if you go to the website and try to look at them, you'll see internal server error. that is the message that you will see. and these
8:24 pm
are emails that came from 2016 when we're here leaks. revealed information showing that the democratic national committee that leads the us democratic party was not acting and partially, and was actively working to make sure that bernie sanders did not get the nomination. and the hillary rodham clinton did get it and which he weeks was provided with 19000 emails as well as 8 attachments to show that. and they've all gone missing. in the immediate aftermath of julian hassan being released and the 14 year long legal battle coming to an ap, now, you'll recall that it was shortly after these emails originally were published. by wiki, reeks that hillary clinton is reported to have discussed killing julian a saw out your call. why can't we just drown this guy? clinton openly inquired, offering a simple remedy to silence
8:25 pm
a songy and some other week you weeks via a plan to military drone strike, according to state department sources. now there's quite a bit of outrage about these remarks in us media after all, she was calling for the extra judicial murder of a journalist. now hillary clinton denied that she made these statements and this happened as mainstream us media went into an overdrive saying that the packing of the emails had been akins, we receive from russia. emmett julian, assigned was somehow a russian agent. let's recall the media hysteria back in 2016. the mc was hacked. they believed by the russians. communications were likely sees by a group of tied to the russian government at cyber security experts are blaming the hack attack on the intelligence agencies of russian president vladimir potent russian state. actors broke into the dnc, stall these emails. now, no evidence was ever provided to prove that somehow russia was involved in the
8:26 pm
events, or the julian assad was working for russia when he published. i'm but these claims were repeated all across us media to see what became known as the russian gate narrative that hung over the trunk presidency, much of which was completely and thoroughly debunk by habit instead continued to serve as throughout the trump administration. now, after a 14 year long grueling legal battle, julius, on, she was forced to plead guilty to one count of violating the espionage act. he is now selling in the united states. but he has been released to return home to australia, and many people around the world are looking at the case as a pretty blatant example of hypocrisy when it comes to western leaders and their calls for transparency and human rights, and the protection of journalists and freedom of the press, etc. of the u. s. embassy in ukraine has confirmed the depth of one of its stuff 1st in key of the body of the all named diplomatic katasha was
8:27 pm
found in a hotel room on tuesday. the american embassy has not disclosed any additional details. i discussed the story with us investigative journalist edwards, all who said the death raises many questions in regard to where they found the body . is it a thought the very, very small information. there was one piece of information that did release which started kind of ridiculous. they said the man had high cholesterol. i don't know about you, but i hope they will find me dead in the hotel room. they don't say well and were just, he just wasn't very healthy. i hope they do it on top. see how they do it of us because of it's very peculiar on the, on the fact is whether edward but he actually just arrived about a week or so mid june. you know, if somebody is chronically ill on his health, i suppose in the jeopardy work where he could die. and it just raises so many questions as to why he would be there for them. and i'll go down that route 1st of all. sure. one thing i found the hotel he was staying in specifically is known to
8:28 pm
have sound proofed rooms. now this could be nothing. okay, but there is this discussion of, there was no violence found on the body that was one of the apart from the uh, the statement put out officially by the state department. but it was also found that a sound proved room and there's no discussion about the cameras. you know, hilton's made on notice. maybe you do. it's a very expensive hotel, very, very high class. they have cameras for each of the hallways. there is nothing about any visitors that they made very clear to not make talk with any kind of his actions before the night before the day after possibly this man. he died for natural causes because he was looking at the great mass that he was about to have to inherit as natasha chase and united states. so you're trained, i want to know more information about this stuff, but on the card to the corruption and the state of the relations been to us and ukraine. why would they put someone so unhealthy? and the wars up. ok that's, that's what, yeah this, it's a, it's of course, um, what did you want to put one of your best people?
8:29 pm
so maybe they don't have many good people that's. that's where some people might go in their, their logical analysis of us. well, that's where we leave the news runs off for now, but remember, you can have your say on any of the stories sweeping rolling today over at the r t dot com, you'll find plenty more there to keep you informed on entertain the we are in a rush or southern regional offer on where the mighty folder flows into the caspian sea, forming of the largest as to where in continental europe, which means it's a great place to learn about the
