because the photo. of the. wiki leaks julian assange is that his appeal against extradition has been rejected so he comes out on the steps of the high court to criticise the european arrest warrant. a sense of disillusionment dominates of protests ahead of the g. twenty summit in cannes as world leaders gather to contain the global financial mayhem on the greek announcement of a referendum on the future of the euro zone has only fueled the flames. results of the investigation into september the plane crash that killed a russian hockey team name pilot error as the cause and speak of traces of a strong sedative in the co-pilot's.

a very warm welcome here this is r.t. live from moscow with me to show we can leaks founder julian assange may find himself on the swedish soil very soon after losing his battle against extradition from britain where they will have to answer sexual misconduct allegations which he denies and describes as politically motivated. smith was at london's high court. but he's certainly one step closer to the plane following today's proceedings this rejection of his appeal against the extradition it's not certain that he will. he has said that he will appeal he's got fourteen days to do that but an appeal is no longer all sematic he has to be granted permission by the high court to appeal to the supremes who is the highest court in the land and that will only be granted if it's deemed by the high court that this case represents the light of precedent that

it up but applies to the wider public in its results now that he did come out on the steps of the high court to make a short statement following the announcement he said that he and his team would be considering what that next steps would be in the days ahead and who's they warn people of that which he intends which has been what happens at the cool heads today and directed them to his website just sounds versus we to hear it from the horse's mouth what has happened what has happened and he also criticised the european arrest warrant that's what he had to say about that i have not been charged with any crime in any country. the spark the european arrest warrant is so restrictive that it prevents u.k. court from considering the power over case has thought to have made we're here. to pass on his team considering that next steps in from all on really on the

european arrest warrant time joined by jim carr and he's the chair of an organization called civil rights international. jim if this case does go to the secret in court it looks unlikely that the european arrest warrant itself could come under scrutiny is that something that you would welcome yes i would welcome dr you know i do think the european arrest warrant should come under scrutiny because they're just being abused for political purposes. because when. i was in sweden he did go before the court should not. to leave sweden once he was here he should be tried if he called there was a case against him and then he was allowed to come here to england. and i believe that there was pressure put on the swedish government perhaps by the american government or by other governments who were a barrister as a result of the revelations that we could be exposed to the international community

and i believe that that is why you tried to get to make charges there is very great concern here in the united kingdom about extradition studio united states because money people believe that they would not get to fear here in india and i should states in current thank you very much as jim crow is actually looking to us outside the high courts where julian assange has now left he's gone back presumably to the house full and smith in norfolk outside london where he has been held under strict bail conditions for the last eleven months he's considering his next steps this case is not safe but it certainly tells that less likely that he will walk free at the end of a civil. right that what i let's get some more reaction on the particular bit of bad luck and i'm joined by liberty campaign a pole with and also with the u.k.

independence party thank you for joining us today is it now inevitable do you think that julian assange will actually be sent. it's certainly looking more and more likely i mean there's always the possibility of another appeal but the problem is that these european arrest warrant wretched thing gives you very few grounds to actually tackle. not supposed to look at the quality of overton's they're not supposed to do anything other than pass the you up and ship you off we've seen with people like andrew simply you. you know there were various appeals even up to the level of the lords but at the end of the day they keep coming back with well under the european arrest warrant we're not supposed to look at the case that it's for the. you know magistrates in the process when you when you talk about when you talk about looking at the case it is bizarre so i mean julian assange said today that the european arrest warrant is so restrictive that it prevents u.k. courts from considering the facts so what does he mean is he right on this.

absolutely it's a thoughtful procedure rather than we're used to extradition orders where you know a british judge would look at the facts and decide you know is there a problem of facing a good case to enter and in a british court would it stand some chance of being a successful prosecution now the european arrest warrant did away with all the between the member states of the european union when andrew soon you were sent over to greece and we recently only got him back after three years almost that the case was going on the spend over twelve months in a filthy greek prison and the case what it was finally brought to court what with the magistrates and the and the prosecutors on strike in greece the case seemed to last forever although he was only only ten days in court and it collapsed the judge threw it out because the evidence was so poor so the judge read it out there in

that case collapse i'm sorry to interrupt you that case collapsed but you know if i may just just bring it back to the main central line here is express the as the extradition to sweden means handing him over to the u.s. where he could face trial for publishing documents on wiki leaks even the death penalty but why why is it there has to go through struck home first. well because we believe that the reason the thing is going through stockholm is that this is a fabricated case to get him out of the u.k. where in the past you know with mckinnon we've shown that we are not just prepared to deliver some months of the american authorities so we think that the european arrest warrants being used by the swedish authorities who are more friendly towards the american way of doing things just to get in there we're worried that as soon as he sets foot on swedish soil this whole case will disappear and he will be arrested

under an american extradition not the case that is being brought him out as i understand it no formal charges have been laid the investigators say they're still investigating there's a lot of worry about the quality of the evidence and they don't actually seem to be doing anything like charging him so we're being asked to send someone off without any formal charges being laid to our answer questions to investigating prosecutors without you know any knowledge of. it's exactly the same as what happened with andrew sumi you you know they they didn't have a court date set they didn't have any evidence properly collated the evidence that we were able to see seem to suggest someone who looked completely different from andrew similar you but this a european way of doing things of ship the person of buying them up in prison and then start trying to put the case to what i was i mean i just as you say i don't

know it's a moment just when it does when it does come to the issue of julian assange as you mentioned and as a science mentioned earlier today he faces no formal charges in any country in the world but if i may just for a moment here assad has been one of the most influential people on the planet is there any chance that he could try and take that it's his advantage to use that. well we think he has andrew sumi you didn't last anything like as long as this in this country before he was shipped off we only think that it's our songs you celebrity he's international status and the fact that people like yourselves are looking at this under a microscope that made it last this long we think if he'd been a normal member of the public like the rest of us he would have been swept off to sweden a long time ago and that's a real worry with the european arrest warrant that people get picked up and dumped in another country very quickly now a son just celebrity they couldn't sweep this one under the carpet you know it's

been the the attention of media focus i remember what it was at the strand one of the journalists there said he hadn't seen that many news cameras since the birmingham six release that shows you the size of the of the case in terms of international attention and we think it's only that that's kept him in this country this long we think that he should appeal again but our worry is that this european arrest warrant just doesn't give any grounds for for here you know what will be launching another appeal and certainly this is by no by no other are the at the band of yes i've only just heard that. laughter i don't think i'm so sorry i'm terribly sorry but that really is all the time we have for today and another time the last time no other people who heard of the u.k. independence party i don't have any campaign i thank you. thank you well we're also interested in what you think about the u.k. court's verdict dot com let's bring up the stats right here see how you've been voting took off half think the u.s. is using the u.k. as a puppet again forty percent believe the verdict is the result of

a conspiracy to gag internet freedom six percent say it was a legitimate step towards a fair trial but the rest think the supreme court may overrule the decision anyway to submit your vote at an r.t. dot com. the upcoming g twenty summit in the french city of can is set to begin with what's become something of a tradition massive protests suppressed by the police and the rage of behind the banners remains the same this year economic hardship and seemingly disconnected leaders and that is daniel bushell reports there's a growing sense that corporate interests are taking precedence over the public's wellbeing. g twenty host from says it wants this summit on its picturesque mediterranean coast to reflect the importance of emerging nations in the world but this financial crisis deepens in both the u.s. and european union economists sports self interest behind that noble claim to involve more right economist of israel to try to convince those rising economies to

put money on the table. and sustainable currency union of europe in the first place developing countries which are quick to back civil unrest among their population they know see those same western countries coming down hard on public movements in the wrong backyard and she will activist croyde double standards primary powers within the g twenty the united states germany britain france the real economic and military powers they want to show our world order a system of states that still has the ability when in fact there is instability this summit is an attempt i shine a face on what is really a failed system is the scene of chaos not just from the side of protesters but also from the police because there's the helicopters overhead at the moment you can hear police sirens also there's police really have mounted this military style operation to shut down and stop any of the protesters going where they don't want them to go one former diplomat says western leaders can't continue to just block criticism

this whole idea that. they can simply ignore or protest against what's happening could come back to bite the leaders of the g seven energy twenty summit this protest different from summits of the post was billed jims dicksee of the latest western banks to get bail dealt with public money growing numbers here worried there's something fundamentally wrong with the current setup we have basically a financial system where corporations and financial institutions are able to write themselves favorable legislation when. pro quo be a corporate lobbyist police roadblocks baldwin street is getting from me to the nearby town of karen where the g. twenty takes place but it's becoming a holder to stop world leaders hearing the voices of protest. see in nice france. now to greece where it's been confirmed the prime minister's proposed referendum on the latest e.u. bailout will go ahead george papandreou call shocked e.u.

leaders and sparked chaos on world markets even came as a shock to greeks themselves of pro bailout m.p.'s calling for his immediate resignation prime minister is now due to fly to cannes to explain his actions before german chancellor angela merkel and french president nicolas sarkozy the chief sponsors of greece's financial life support machines more on this and where this puts the eurozone and i'll join you on live from brussels or johan van overtveldt or the editor in chief of belgium two leading business magazines trends and now good to see you so greece lived a life of luxury for years and till this crisis and now that the bill is due athens threatens to drag the rest of the eurozone down with i do the greeks really deserve a say in all of this. well i think what we have to read in all of this is that the situation in greece has become really desperate the economy's going down very rapidly and very deeply unemployment is rising fast the budget situation is out of

control and it is clear by now i think for the greek leaders that the recipe followed so far doesn't lead to a solution becomes very it makes things worse and for me what mr president really is doing with organizing this referendum is preparing the exit of greece from the euro zone so you say he's actually preparing the exit for for for greece from the eurozone up but you know what one question would be nowhere in the e.u. has any government borrowed so much money what about trying to pay some of that back. well i think they just can't afford to do it at the moment their economy is in so bad a shape that the only thing they know for sure is that there will be worse than today and the day after will be even worse than tomorrow so by dropping out of the euro zone what the greeks will. arrive at is that they of course have to create

their own currency again that currency will go down substantially views of the euro vis a vis the dollar and other major currencies and that will give the greek economy again a perspective through increased exports and growth and that is what the greek economy needs and the only thing that can save them from a real disaster also from the society point of view because. you noticed also that in the last twenty four hours two or three generals were put aside this interim it put it that way so the unrest even in the military camp with respect to what is happening in greece is becoming really huge but we heard politicians and major lenders basically dancing in skirting around the issue of greece would indeed greece leave the eurozone you think quite convinced are you are you really that convinced that greece will just accept three when i leave the eurozone. well. hardly noticed thing in the in the past days was that there was an opinion poll in

greece late last week and i think i remember correctly the wall street journal was reporting on it in its monday paper and the result of that opinion poll was that a majority of the greeks would reject the austerity program as a forward on the october twenty sixth twenty seventh summit so there was a certain extent this is mr papandreou is asking a question to which he already knows the answer and the answer will probably be no which will be the end of the rescue packages and which unavoidably will mean that the only option left from greece is an exit from the euro zone so if indeed greece does. the eurozone after all these billions in loans who are set to suffer the most will be the investors the politicians or will it be once again the people who are facing a year of devastating austerity cuts all of them all of them will suffer because so we can compare era i think we are very very close to the situation of our argentina beginning of the twenty first century there will be

a huge default through each month all those will of course lose a lot of money politicians will of course lose faith face excuse me in greece and interest of the euro zone and of course the people of greece who already have suffered quite a bit in the last two years will keep on suffering for the coming period but the exit from the euro zone i can't stress that enough does at least give them a better perspective on economic growth and future welfare the present situation leads just further down the dark tunnel you're an overdeveloped editor in chief of belgium's two leading political magazines trends and back thank you well with greece up to its neck with economic and political strife another crisis could be just around the corner and the existing mood of desperation caused by austerity cuts pushes some greeks to make immigrants scapegoats.

russian investigators have concluded that the crew applied the brakes during takeoff causing a plane crash in the war that killed forty four people in september artie's natalya novel cover listen to what the investigative committee had to say. they investigated has shown that those pilots were trained how to operate got forty planes for a very long time and then they had to switch to forty two's and according to the committee those two planes have a very different break because all systems which share the pilots didn't have enough time to get used to you and so that could have been done by mistake another reason there is jesse is one of the pilots was suffering from a strong neurological condition which should strongly in fact that once reflexes adams was also under the effects of strong medication perhaps he was using that medication to treat that condition that he was successfully hiding from the aviation medical community for all this time a lot of the documents were of full flight apparently and from the conversations

records from the black box during the press conference that we were listening to it was pretty clear that. they sounded very negligent there was a lot of swearing and the interstate. aviation committee i was actually saying that it sounds like the pilots did not call a few weights all the parameters for the sake of it before hand so they were not prepared for the flight. i think they're not telling us because of hoarding right there now at twenty minutes past the hour here in moscow where the leaders of turkey and germany met on wednesday as the nation celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of an historic guest worker pact the deal brought hundreds of thousands of turks to then west germany to fill jobs as industry boomed but the anniversary comes and during heavy debate over the concept of multiculturalism in europe which many say is fading perhaps exemplifying this the office of a satirical french newspaper was firebombed after a name prophet mohammed its editor in chief for the week saw an episode m.p.

from the danish people's party says that that happened because extremists simply don't understand crispe. it's quite obvious that it is jodi who has been targeted by fanatics who do not accept any critiques of religion and want us to lead them to ways thereby destroying the freedom of speech in europe and that's really what's a struggle it's about it it's a question of. this one's going to decide what can be serious what can be done what can be drawn in the way they're challenging how it's freedom of speech and i think that's one of the most cherished freedoms that we have a strong so we should not accept this by any chance and i think all right that might be provocative also what you list mostly but also what shall you do do what you don't want to say you know we have a stand here we will see will be light we will laugh at what we like and it's also very humid there's a lot of humor in what surely it could be and it's

a shame that these muslims cannot learn this think about all the lectures that christiane and supersedes throughout the centuries my goodness in my country i mean they have been marked. by all sorts of curses during the last two three hundred years we've been laughing at those christians who were spared as he wanted to keep quiet who do not want us to have quite some religion that is part of our own our system i mean we need to say to these people you know you are not the one to decide if we decide out of our free speech we'll say what we like. now it is that sarah for three ports from greece and the immigration sentiment is reaching boiling point fueled by the country's economic wars. on the streets of greece protests have become a common occurrence this gatherings not one of the usual demonstrations. ever gratian phrase that the ethnic tensions here in the city. and of becoming more and

more of a concern in the last few years illegal immigration into europe increased in particular has skyrocketed as the greek economy has plummeted the crisis has led to unemployment and poverty seeing a lot of people. to make ends meet face to these tough economic conditions it's not just extreme factions a society that has seen a rise in and he immigrant sentiment but every day greeks he faced with exceptionally tough station circumstances have a point the finger of blame. the club on the streets of athens has now become a kind of limbo for illegal immigrants who are struggling to make money and to survive even second generation immigrants who've lived in the country many years i feeling the tension we've come to one of greece's neighborhoods of the danger is

a first high immigrant population the local park here has become a saying mine a battleground. we have to close the poor because it was overrun with immigrants no one could cross that everybody was scared and no group of people could come here it was not a playground. children are now forced to play their games there outside the close gates is a part of this area with maintain to say whether or not the press israel the fairness neighborhood certainly is it's definitely could push issues and. stays an issue because it's a symbol of the baby leave thinking that the place is not good because even in many areas of the world these things i think nightmare goes. you're not to go would be open to be marketed to blow through the night but it looks like that whether to the bank branch of the reason it is a year or

a crisis continues ethnic tensions have been growing into an extremely volatile and sometimes dangerous situation greece is a country now in the midst of not just a financial and economic crisis but an immigration crisis too but trying to find a way to rebuild say shook asian here is not gains easy surf r.t. athens. coming up next there are two good reasons we. welcome to our presence of our holiday for russia starts with fear over the debt situation in europe dominating sentiment coble equities are still reeling some group decision to hold a referendum on the e.u. bailout for the whole clan had to douse artie's can barton who was at the start exchanging moscow has the chance. it has been a very turbulent day on the markets russia's r.t.s.

and my six have been up and down but they've ended up tentatively in the black but it seems that there's been great uncertainty throughout the russian markets san beyond all focused on greece on the unfolding drama there the government there wants to have a referendum because it wants to put the question of the euro pale out plan to the greek people it wants a clear mandate for that plan but that has worried many people around the world many of greece's potential creditors because they fear that the greek people will give a no vote it's indicated that they may well do that and that would create a very serious situation indeed can exacerbate the current crisis greece may indeed default on its debt if the greek people vote no it may go further and leave the eurozone altogether or third option may be that another bigger bailout plan may have to be arranged all of these alternatives to greece following the austerity

measures that would come with any bailout of very painful indeed and will severely shake the confidence of markets they will also terrified nearby italy and then spain who are themselves teetering on the brink of financial catastrophe the e.u. leaders themselves they have been trying to impress upon greece that the austerity measures they demanded are a must do that there is no alternative to them but they themselves are staring in the face of the possible failure of the bailout plan that took them so long to get together and that they said would stop the euro debt crisis altogether that plan may fail before it's even got off the ground. the numbers here is russia where the rainbow is a gaining ground as the days trading draft of course the r.t.s. is up over one point eight percent the wiser. one a half percent higher. most energy majors are off with gas from gaining weight a half percent something the u.s.
