ah, frightening saw that in the european country in the 21st century, you have one man in power for more than 2 decades. and that's exactly what happened in russia. ah, lucas shanker had a 6 year head start on total. he came to power and $94.00, put in at the end of $99.00. but he was in your pain language in what he did yet that he is with get over there. blessed when you get a day or took some humor gretsch's. by the time the putin came to power local shanker had already essentially established for full fledged authoritarian system invalid and began doing many of the same things with wickersham. go to read, you done, prisoner phone and shutting down. independent media outlets. rigging, elections, motoring, political opponents of time. boris themself. call this the lucas, shy zation of russian,

who just listening in words, some annoyed yamil. ruskin is bloated him, excuse me, but his indian aunt, but knew where that assumed galleon all day old, that the poor brothers computers come on. a new meet nika, you whom robin the human in the engine was by? yes, i still, unless you look leisure of it by at the moon, we will put your room number a suit mutual yost, i also grown me cookie woke, but gives repeated mistake. you couldn't cook now who did so millennia and look at me when she students to present of oh my so dish nika, yoko citizen thought to woodson, squishy li grew up close. thought you was 30, can you get up? she worth of it. but i'm still and you, since diana cheney, yesterday, you saying you put him bookstore? i think the way he came to power in a way he established his role. he's also a textbook example of how to transform a democracy to

a perfect and solid authoritarian system. didn't happen with a could a tire didn't happen with a, you know, military vanden have more tanks on the street. it happened gradually. it happened over time. it happened incrementally as muscle leaning. one said, he should flock the chicken feather by feather to lessen the squawking. that's exactly how pu, combined about noon. an autocrat is some one who rules by non democratic means any one who is authoritarian and style of rule. ah, there are many countries in the world now that have been going through this process of gradual descent from democracy to autocracy. m. and then you look at the authoritarian regimes,

egypt, saudi arabia, russia, some of the other former soviet states. and of course, china, most of law and these regimes are even more authoritarian now than they were 5 or 10 years ago. on the 4th day of his not gracious president, in may of 2000 vladimir putin sent armed operatives from the tax police. and the prosecutor general service to raid the officers of russia's largest private, independent media. hopefully they tried to bring in reinforcement city encampment already surrounding the television tower. 2003. we had a parliamentary election. yeah, some difficult to win an election when your opponents are not on the ballot, but he had them when you at the end of that you know them. what would you okay, black when i go back to you know jim yeah, the what to do with the bus. bring it that i could get that to the police in it,

but we always did it at them might be by just doing it then we the field of things still go through the charmaine when a sort of technical exercise. as to all details, everyone will don't label your suit opinion that may be allowed to use the label. it got done that you may need more, but i'll give you a little bit of july because that was from where you stand. i see a video. i didn't know that they had done everything they could try to guard against to be felt the security services to make mass arrests to threaten in many cases. to matter. political economy pollutant is a very insecure political leader, and he clearly fears that if he has a serious opposition, canada, who's able to speak and travel around the country and mobilize that things may get out of control in russia, which is the land of monopoly power. and monopoly greed and

a state that is capable of being murderous when it needs to be in the night of february 27th, 2015. barshan himself almost most prominent opponent of let him if he was by 5 bullets in the back. literally in the shadow of a cronan in moscow. ah, the bar since i was on just a close call, he is a very close friend. he was someone to whom i owe everything i've ever accomplished in my political life. it's says a lot about today's russia that this is the price of freedom that you have to pay the ultimate price. i the

i was targeted into occasions both times in moscow both times through sophisticated poisonings. presumably carried out by chemical agency. a tool used by the security services going back to soviet times with this method has especially proliferated on the vladimir putin. both times i was in a coma on artificial life support. and dr. so told my wife that had about a 5 percent chance to live with so many people in my generation, in russia, it was sort of inevitable to become really politicized. this did perhaps smoke the beginning of the end. the 1st conscious political memory was the democratic revolution in august of 1991 the 3 days that ended the soviet regime. as we woke up that morning in august of 1991,

tens of thousands gathered at the cent russian citizens musk of heights who refused to accept that qu data. when our arm was anything i except the dignity and that determination to defend their freedom. and they went into the streets and literally stood in front of the tanks. and then the tank stopped the soviet and turned away poise. this was my 1st conscious medical memory. i was chinese, all that time, yesterday, roaring approval for every fresh, you know, the biggest fear of any autocrats is his or her own people. it has been like this throughout history. nothing changes in this regard. it was the limited reflection. no foreign invasion, no. a sort of pressure from our side is as dangerous to them as when they see crowds of people on the street. with

latimer hooton's, watch that be many democratic peace revolutions, but none of them so far have been as dangerous flatter mapleton as the one in ukraine with russia now is the most aggressive and amy of democracy in the world. the strategy of kremlin used to build your russian world and did not on the ball at the money's not only bought corrupt shop, it's about the culture they want everybody to fear. mm hm. and wants to control some bartel this world for they are for they think like empire and ukraine is already

a democracy. biggest russian speaking democracy. unfortunately to them for me in with with that it will show of dignity in the ukraine was a moment when the ukrainians choose not to ship with a footboard, they can do them from all of the jobs. to look,

look with the advisor mckesson to put a more so couldn't break it all. okay, you got a real quick? no, you won't be the all star. no one is not a news alert. silly, you ordered and it was pretty wired cook or, oh no. nasa budget or when you story will ellie pray grow lou brittany. she pretty skis to duty through. it was listed brutal. but he jumped roll slower. ah ah, why you crank these. 2 so important for kremlin and it means that it's what important for the world for all these bottles for the mockers geographically, ukraine. he's was actually in the middle of this conflict between the worlds

between the liberal world liberal democratic and asserted that every year we become stronger, but kremlin, do its best food. oh, its resources we to faith because it's impossible to build a russian to suit any results with reinforcement, 3 units of ukrainian food ukraine, already volt in the war. and it's not only at conflict between the ukraine and russian grain at the ball is not the i'm ellen and the russian leave it. i believe that it's a war against democracy. it's not the crisis. it's hand. might she to

be sure if we lose it? ah, it will be a loss for all the world when there are a war politically with your values, principles, and institutions, you either have to decide that you're going to defend them and fight back. or we are going to be a very, very grave risk soon as i sit here, russia is massing troops on the ukrainian border. as i sit here, russia is mobilizing new military power in the arctic ocean. and so on. china is mobilizing its military in the south china sea and bearing down on

taiwan. i don't think we should seek a cold war, but it is a period, a new period of normative battle over democratic values in the world. ah, i think democracies of the world have to recognize this and rise to the challenge. mm. mm mm mm. figuring out how to deal with the rise of china is the great challenge of the 21st century biz got more authoritarian over the past decade. state champion and alternative to western democratic capitalism. that gives dictatorships like china's an

incredible vulnerability should a day come. when that regime is no longer able to provide economic growth, it will no longer have any reason to stay in power. and the only choice it will have, therefore, if it wants to stay in power, is to use increasing repression and increasing violence against its own citizens. ah ah. so in 2014, i was as good a leader. we had the massive civil disobedience, women call it the umbrella movement in

ah, by the people were promised democracy in a ptolemy by the chinese government. we didn't believe them after the tenant masika . and under that one party did here ship. so we have hundreds of thousands of people blocking the major on a phone call showing a very strong signal that we are demanding for democracy. and the government should let them draw voice. they saw us troublemakers, or even the traders of the country because among a democratic system in hong kong. so we actually covered a lot of them. i 1st that isn't attacks. i decided to run for election. i managed to win the election at the age of 23 and becoming the youngest elected legislator in hong kong history. i. it shows

how people want to change at the end of the day they go from and they always can find ways to suppress you. they managed to kick me out of the counsel 9 months after i represent the people in it. a month after i went to jo, caught the umbrella bisman. i felt definitely bad about it, but i actually had a mental erosion for that. and i feel like is actually one of the pest up in our system journey ah, by the end of the day, the movement,

the not so seat. but it was of very memorable page of history because it reflects the very 1st massive disobedience movement of our time. ah, i decided to flee out of the city in order to preserve a voice. and soon enough i left the city. i found myself on the want of based off the national security at all. if i were to be back to hong kong, i will immediately be arrested and be submitted to the national security court. the charges they put on me on the metal, the penalty of it is life imprisonment. we are literally facing the most powerful author at heritage in the world. so we're actually facing david versus goliath battle. ah,

if everyone wants to change the country, only thought about that personal safety, then nothing in history, whatever sort we know the risks and we accept them because we think our country deserves so much better than rule in the 21st century by a collector crashing sanisha poster photo for have problem. yup. and let me know what you need to do or not you know like what

i do live by what i me

i . ready think yesterday was the norm from all the numbers? sure. in any i use natural was actually due to the new model. so i didn't teach at the gym by blue here. the lady perry gave for me would give him was a lot of my work, you know,

look i think daily but and then triple size. got you and her sure. know if you will give me anyway. she's up there and she never get rochester. me isn't my low you live in your mind you're pursuing a yes ma'am. i we sure that ukrainians are ready to die for the i you fight. that's it. that's it.

if you are not ready to fight, you will lose any weight. because the idea that these guys poor young wickersham co, we'll go wild themself, not able to idea it's afraid they'll, ah. busy they must pass a lesson i learned in my life. is that how of a strong dictatorship, how is strong, pervading forces, however strong and half of the repression? when enough people are willing to stand up what's right, they succeed. and i think even in the darkest times, in the darkest days when it seems to be most difficult and most appeal to climb, i think it's very important to remember that you know, so he dissidence i had the saying that night is dark as before the dawn and i think

that is a very important question to remember. mm. i care about helping us engages with the rest of the world. we're really interested in take you in to a point you might not visit otherwise and feel as if you were there with

me. mm. hm, we deal with a lot of grace the u. s. and french president's hold talks after a recent fall out from a security agreement between washington, the u. k. and australia. ah, hello, i'm emily. ang, when this is al jazeera, alive from doha, also coming up here. climate protest is gather in cities around the world, demanding more urgent action.
