from the voice which had a steep volcano in indonesia none of the forty five on board survived the tragic. promised russian businessman victor boot talks exclusively to r.t. about what he believes is really behind me twenty five year jail term he's now serving in the u.s. . your boot a russian air cargo business man dubbed the merchant of death in the u.s. sentenced to twenty five years behind bars for allegedly arms trafficking in april years and tens of millions of dollars pumped into hunting him down u.s. agents posing as fark members how would arrested in a sting operation in thailand in two thousand and eight found not guilty by thai courts twice he was still extradited to the u.s.

russia called the move illegal picture book now speaks to our t. exclusively from jail. victor thank you very much for calling in today i want to start by asking you you were sentenced to a quarter of a century behind bars what does that feel like grow worse before they come with you and is it clear your body or brother cronk you know julia spirit if you figure it out every time you understand both of the freedom it's impossible to break you down to bring it to me if you can and i wore it i know i don't commit to anything to have that punishment. when i was a m h me and the crimes these crimes would never take these are live food your government would not give brezhnev right then the result would be the conspiracy robot label. decision to kill america which is i'd like a magic bullet or for that european and kind of. the world where you know barely

or through the do you feel you know reach on trial for inquisition where you know your mom accepted your content with your own people and things of that. that will help i understand the realities and i understand time i'm trying to bring them out which my friends my family and russian people that want to happen to me it's a pure political case you are in the process of appeal and you've also asked the russian state duma to file a complaint against the united states. thailand why hoping for legally add politically or well legally i'm maybe not the best percentile answer use a lawyers would know better and i'm not trained to especially in the american president lol i'm allowed to tell you what my perspective or whatever is the law and i'll be going to do but i have all the most known hope because the way the system works once you label kind of once you put to the so-called. jury's

decision so no judge or even supreme court would have the counsel that because like this is the truth in the. hoopers state nobody can ever order a rule reconsider the decision or knows of a certain point and it's accepted that the jurist cannot fail now we know that you are about to be transferred to a prison in colorado and considering your lawyer and your families here in new york city will this affect you a lot this move this transfer but that's another despite a judge's decision andre commendation to keep this hour in nearby because i've never been is not a state i don't have no i am a family here except my wife is sitting me. my lawyer based in new york they're trying to go with me so it's lost through to most of the countess you know jail which is an about ten feet in on the ground so i never could see daylight again as

a punishment but as a chance to create more obstacles to prepare the proper appeal as a kind of a revenge fall that we brought the issue of the keep and shoot for more than one and a home years without knowledge or reason and through off prism planning you know the tricks that can play with me which are after you learned your sentence in court on april fifth you turned to the d.n.a. agents who were inside the courtroom and you said god knows the truth. you know the truth what is your message to u.s. officials today and maybe even the u.s. president well i have a message for you is president if you will keep using these folks who have a name of did a drug enforcement agent and they would invent a crimes based world not only not help america to really solve the problem with a drug for sale anywhere but it's that of going to the

a real problem to solve the real problem they just inventing the crime because look there is no danger for him go to somebody who don't hide for a walk do the kind o. the dirty tricks and the frames of people instead of going to solve the real problem with a real drug court and then it's also hypocrisy of this administration if they you know sentence me to twenty five years daredevil status and they don't want to go and then sent those old guy. dealers in america who's selling the arms and these are my ending up in mexico and by these arms the killing of the same american citizen in mexico it's been reported that you knew you were dealing with undercover agents or at least not by members all along in the in the days in the time leading up to your rep is that the case. i don't think we could really now talk about the you know these details i don't remember that they. stated that i was dealing with undercover agent was that i was not sure who they are and for me to be or they've

been very strange people they posing like you know these but the way they pose the way they talk i understand immediately they have nothing to do with. fog people let's hope you were dubbed the merchant of death the lord of war do you think these nicknames ended up affecting your case more than they should have of course this is entire story is about first you crazy me and then you bring people from all over this building but we call that a redo all this article reach and. the single article brought any single fact about my rock star look with all their money doing for all over the world and they brought two pilots who confronted yes my phone my company was engaging to transportation but it was legitimate contact with the legitimate government of rwanda and we've been flying them you know accordingly they the conflict over there or our offer amounted to is done properly but out of all the businessmen that they could have gone after it why do you think they went after you. listen for them

doesn't matter whom they're going to pick up because whenever they go spoon feed is the mainstream media spoon feeding the american population all creating them if they don't care when they pick up we know that you've seen the movie about you with nicolas cage what do you what do you think about his performance i feel sorry for him that this is a very. middle middle career move it has a very bad to know screen and i don't think it's a even interesting to watch it all it's a fair representation of the problem which is because of an african nation if you knew you would be serving a twenty five year sentence behind bars do you think you would have done anything differently no i don't regret nothing in my life and i can see and face anything i did because i didn't did anything wrong in my life if you were actually a free man right now do you know what you would be doing what would you want to be doing would you change your life around start something new well of course because

look around four years. of a lot behind the bar by uncle sam. i'm ruined completely i don't have any money left at all they. not only close my companies they put through these executive orders which is without any due process without even chance to calm and explain as they said they freeze six billion dollars and i'm asking a challenging president of united states show all the proof with i had ever six billion dollars at least i know where to get money to pay my defense team for that bukhari this is all you know story is the same and nothing short of the small can medeiros like they did with the weapon of mass destruction of iraq. then even today hubble said if you repeat the lies thousands and thousand times become the true is this is exactly the recipient which these red ministration using some of the people who've been following your case critics have been saying that the case is very much anti lusha do you think that that's really the case or is it just you were says the

u.s. government of course there isn't a russian look or whatever what was happening in the thailand during the extradition procedure when the criminal court in bangkok denied extrusion they put tremendous pressure for the. government of thailand and they actually brought me out not extradited and we still have a pending legal procedures and kind of through the courts because we submitted appeals there and it was not finished deal because of personal involvement big pressure numerous calls will die ambassador american ambassador going out most daily and pushing the government the government decided to pass me over to americans side like you said your papers do remain in thailand do you think they'll remain on the shelf forever or could there still be some sort of this internet it will be a little egypt people are really moving if there really is or any political will of

thigh government to prove that they have a stable justice not mockery and then not a colony of the united that they had to do it there's been several cases throughout the last several years where the f.b.i. ended up putting itself on the back for. manufacturing some cases and bringing foreigners to u.s. soil do you think this is something that we're going to see more of in the future go through this and i was close the money toting every two weeks you have a manufactured crime and benefactor it by the idea it's regular you know just what's there somebody's car caught for the trying and all conspiring to send a airplane model loaded with explosives to the pentagon and another one you know called. for the asians are begging them please go and expose synagogue for the eighty seven months and they are looking for the people in the desperate stage which is in need money and this is agents instead of really walking to move to secure this country to just say no manufacturing of the crime and showing all you

know with preventing the crime itself terror or the war of terror you cannot fight against the carol because kara it's not the state it's not the person now you are serving twenty five years right now but you have said previously that you think you will be released before that and will be able to return to russia where a lot sooner how and why how do you think that would happen because look this is a case purely political and i think the public opinion in russia understand and know the truth this by the american procedures and the mike is actually showing them the real condition of american justice system and real condition to reach an american state coming as a police state and nothing short of dictatorship this year but thank you very much for your time with us today we appreciate i want to send the best regards to the r.t. stuff. hold
