1:10 pm
they were al having that broadcast relayed to them, what they made of it, and there was no there, it was still the same songs and speeches, and music coming over the screens from the stage that they have been hearing and seeing for weeks. and maybe a technical reason why they weren't watching what was going on, in moscow, but i think it also suggests that the people here have moved way beyond victor. they are just not listening to him as a leader, any more. now, we have heard from the opposition leaders on this stage, in the after math of those announcements. vitale was saying that vladimir putin is doing his best to put ukraine from the e.u., and really clarifying what is under the carpet of their meeting. he is not trusting what they are being told at all. he says that the leaders are scared to publish what they have signed in moscow. a real message of disinstruction there. so the tactics of the

1:34 pm
>> but the u.s. state department has defended the actions of the new york police. the diplomatic follows procedures during the arrest. after her arrest, she was passed on to the martials. for any additional questions on her treatment, obviously this would be the u.s. marshals and not us, i would refer you there. >> well, joining us now from new york city, is lawyer dan is representing the diplomat at the center of this dispute. if you could tell us, first, more about the circumstances that led to your clients arrest, and why you say this is a violation of her diplomatic immunity? >> look, the decision to charge her in the first place, we think was a significant error in judgement. the facts and circumstances which allegedly supported that decision were not fully
1:35 pm
thought out. and we think, that when a senior american diplomate sits with a senior indian diplomate. the decision will be made that this was an ill conceived motion from its inception. and this case should be abandoned. >> but why do you say that this was a violation of her diplomatic immunity? because the u.s. says that standard procedures were followed and that the diplomatic immunity that she is entitled to guarantees immunity only with respect to act -- react related to duties and not personal action. the facts and circumstances surrounding her being charged in this case. would be the subject of further litigation, we will providing legal briefs which will establish that in fact she was entitled to complete immunity for the precise behaviors with which she has been
1:36 pm
charged in this case. >> why was she entitled to immunity? do tell us why? because they are arguing the opposite. i am doubtful that you nor your audience are interesting in the air cane details. >> we are, because if you recall in the case of the former i.n.f. chief, we had -- we heard outrage in france as well at the time when he was dragged and handcuffed in new york on rape charges, so that time the issue of diplomatic immunity was also raised and it turned out thieves hn't guaranteed diplomatic immunity in that case, so what we want to understand is why would your client be entitled to diplomatic immunity in this instance? he is a senior official of the indian missions and as such, he is entitled to immunity. the decision as to
1:37 pm
whether or not to afford her that, will be made by a judge after the issues are briefed for the judge. we are confident, that a judge ultimately will agree with our position, and we hope, however, that before we ever have to get to that point, that the diplomatic agents on behalf of the indian government, and the u.s. government understand that this was an ill conceived prosecution and the case gets dismissed. >> let's just take a closer look at what she is accused of. if i understand correctly, and you can crocket me on this, if i'm wrong, of lying on the visa application for her indian worker, and accused of paying her less than the minimum wage, but you say, and i have read this. i do believe, and the allegations against her
1:38 pm
are false, and she will be vindicated if we have to lit kate this case. >> was she paying this employee fairly? she was paying her employee exactly what she should have been paying her. >> which is how much? >> i am not going to get into the details of the facts of the case with you, this is an on going case, and we will litigate that in the appropriate forum. >> . >> some have suggested that the indian worker might be doing this to get asylum and get permanent residency, what do you say to that? >> i don't -- i do understand that that is a conclusion that could be drawn. and i have no comment. >> -- as you know, indian has taken totallatory steps.
1:39 pm
in how she was treated. is thissage effective way in dealing with this issue. >> i think it would have been foolish to believe that the behavior of the united states government against a high ranking official, would result in no response from the indian government. over the years, the united states and india have enjoyed a relationship, and i expect that that will continue. when and if the united states and india have an opportunity to sit down in a diplomatic session and resolve these issues. >> thank you for your time. attorney for the indian diplomate at the center of the controversial right now, with the united states, thank you very much indeed for speaking to us. thank you for your time. >> thank you. >> angel americale has been sworn in for a third time, for more let's go back to our european news
