12:38 pm
established israel is also a textbook example of how to transform a democracy to a perfect and solid authoritarian system. didn't happen with a coup d'etat. it didn't happen with the, you know, military event didn't have much tanks on the streets. it happened gradually. it happened over time, as it happened incrementally, as mostly any one said. they should pluck the chicken feather by feather to less than the squawking. that's exactly how food went about. an autocrat is someone i was by non democratic means anyone who is a sort of china and style of rule the there many countries in the world now that have been going through this process of
12:39 pm
gradual descent from democracy to our taurus. 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 all and these regimes are even more authoritarian now than they were 5 or 10 years ago. on the 4th day office and alterations present in may of 2000 vladimir putin sent armed officers from the tax police and the prosecutor general service to raid the offices of russians, the largest private independent media hold off a new nation. i just read reinforcement city encampment already surrounding the television tower and it's a $1003.00. we had a problem actually election. yeah. some difficult to win an election when your opponents on, on about the 3 of them. when you have some of them,
12:40 pm
some of that sting with them, but we didn't like when a good party was just you the other one is the must bring it back. i think it, that's it opponents and it by somebody i was just at that might have a question and then we have the they still go for the show right in front of sort of technical exercise as to all the changes everyone is. so you put it like i will send you that the label after this and then they've already got thrown in the m a boiler. but i'll give you an update your lady a couple of hours from where you stand. i see if they do they have done everything they could try to guard against them. beef office security services to make mass arrests, to threaten in many cases, to matter. already called the putting is a very and secure political leader. and he clearly fears that if he has a serious opposition, canada who is able to speak and travel around the country and mobilize that things
12:41 pm
may get out of control in russia, which is the land of monopoly power and monopoly greets. and the state that is capable of being murderous when it needs to be in the night of february 27th, a 2015 parson himself. how much the most prominent opponent was that it was done by 5 bullets in the back. literally in the shadow of a crime, in most of the parts themselves. but just so i was calling because of my close friends with someone to whom i owe everything. i never accomplished in my political life. it's it says a lot about today's russia is that this is the price of freedom is that you have to
12:42 pm
pay the ultimate price. the was targeted into occasions both times and most of those times through sophisticated poisonings, presumably carried out by chemical agents tool used by the security services going back to soviet times. but this method has especially proliferated under a lot of my food both times i was in a coma, on artificial life support and dr. centrals, my wife and i had about 5 percent chance to live so many people in my generation, in russia, it was sort of inevitable to become really politicized. just did perhaps small the beginning of the end. the 1st because this political memory was the
12:43 pm
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 in this and russian citizens must provide skill refused to accept that put a time. but not with anything except their dignity. and that determination to defend their freedom. and they went into the streets and literally stood in front of the tanks and then attacked stopped. sylvia, in terms of warranty, please. this was my 1st conscious political memory. i was trying to use all the time. usually ask for an approval of refreshing cuz it gets through with a lot of crime issues around people. it has been like this throughout history. nothing changes in this regard to the section, you know, for invasion know,
12:44 pm
positive pressure from outside is as dangerous to them as when they see crowds of people on the streets. like middleton's watch, that'd be many democratic piece of revolutions. but, and none of them so far has been as dangerous for letting me put another one in ukraine. russia now is the most impressive, and they mean of democracy. and the strategy of grimly is to build your russian words at that spot on the ball. tamani stopped on the ball corruption. it's about the culture. they want everyone to feel the company wants to control some
12:45 pm
12:46 pm
problem the some of the lesson to put in more of the playground look where you got to look for, just to know, you won't believe you'll start when there's no news or not. so he will give us pretty much a little of new mazda. i'll put you on. uh, when your stores will either printing to what needs to be put in the system. we were supposed to go to prison jims pro fluid the way you print these so important for criminal and means that it's very
12:47 pm
important for the one. for all this model for them, of course, the geographically you print these was actually the needs of these concepts between the walls, between the liberal world liberal democratic and sorted by the every year we become strong. but a family do need some best resource we to face because it's impossible to deal with the russian. so resolved to create the coming into that reinforce but 3 units of ukrainian is ukraine, already enrolled in the war and pizza, not only conflict between ukraine and rush grant at people is not the and the
12:48 pm
russian. maybe i believe that it's a war against democracy. it's not the crisis feeds her hand, made she to be sure if we lose it hot, it will be a loss for all in the when there a war politically with your values, principles, and institutions. you either have to decide that you're going to defend and fight back, or we are going to be a very, very grave risk. as i said here, russia is massive troops on the ukrainian border. as i sits here,
12:49 pm
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 see to cold war, but it is a period, a new period of normative battle for democratic values and the, and i think democracies of the world have to recognize this and rise to the challenge. figuring out how to deal with the rise of china is the great challenge of the 21st century is gotten more authoritarian over the past decade,
12:50 pm
state champion and alternative to western democratic capitalism. that gives dictatorships like china's an incredible vulnerability should a day call when back 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. the sewing 2014 i was the leader. we had the massive, simple diesel beat in,
12:51 pm
quote, the umbrella. and it's not the my, the people were homeless, democracy and autonomy by the chinese government. we didn't believe them after the 10 them a month ago and under the one positive, hey issue. 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 listen to our voice. they saw us as troublemakers, or even the trade as of the country because of the month of democratic system in hong. com. so we actually suffered a lot of them as far as the t's and i'll text the
12:52 pm
both sides drawing for the election. i managed to to, we need election at the age of 73 and becoming the youngest, as elected. let's just say to the hong kong c history, it shows how people wanted to change the but at the end of the day, think of them 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 and it's a month um i went to jo quotes on the umbrella of this month. i felt definitely bad about it, but i actually had a mental preparation for that. and i feel like it's actually, or one of the pit stop in our system, john the,
12:53 pm
the, at the end of the day, um, the movement did not seats, but it was a very memorable page of phone conversation. we because a brief, less of the very 1st most if these obedience movement overall of time the decided to fly out of the city in order to please us a voice and soon enough i left the city. i found myself on the one to based off the national security at all. if i were to be back to hong kong, i will immediately be arrested and be sent me to, to the national security quotes. the charges they put on me, the maximum penalty of it is life in prison. we are literally facing the most powerful autherette heritage i mean to wells. so we're actually
12:54 pm
facing david for us as good life back to the as everyone wants to change the country on sort of the personal safety, the nothing and history, whatever we know the risks and we accept them because we think our country deserves so much better than you know, being rude in the 21st century might except a project dictatorship. the to me, but yeah, just start going to the advisors is the
12:56 pm
12:57 pm
it was like you have jacob has evolved, was it a lot of work? you know sure the ukrainians are ready to die for them. what are your flight or symbols? that's it. that's it. if you want to try to find any way because the idea that these guys, fortunately shantika view go out themselves. it's not a very good idea. it's a freight. busy the most powerful lesson i learned in my life is that a lot of stronger dictatorship. how strongly providing forces, how of a strong and powerful the refreshing when enough people are waiting to stand up for
12:58 pm
us, right? they succeed. and i think even in the darkest times, in the darkest days when it seems to be most difficult and the most appeal to climb, i think it's very important to remember that you know, so if you're dissidence at the saying the night is doctor's before the door and i think that is a very important message. good on counting the cost, the us federal reserve for us because interest rates. but why does it matter? us big pharma says price controls could hurt the development of drugs, but will its plus, china is raising the age of retirements for the 1st time in decades. counting the cost on i'll just say around the
