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. there's no holding them with you and is it clear your father brother cronk you know julia security you figure it out and you understand both of the freedom it's impossible to break you down to bring your clooney if you're counting on war and i know i don't commit to anything to have that punishment. when i was a major me and a crime these crimes would never exist i live food you have got a record milk and bread of crime and the result would be the conspiracy robot label . decision to kill off america which is i'd like a magic bullet or expose the truth of it and kind of how it will hurt or you know belly or to the do you hold an overreach trial. where you know your mom accepted.

that there were no things. that will help i understand their reality and i understand them i'm trying to bring them out which my friends my family russian people that listen to what is happening 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. in thailand why hoping for legally add politically or well legally i'm maybe not the best president tosser use easy lawyers would know better and i'm not trained to especially an american president lol i'm allowed to tell you what my perspective on 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 tournaments you put to the so-called. jury's decision so no judge

or even supreme court would have on counsel that because like this is the truth in the. hoopers state nobody can ever order a rule reconsider that decision or no so much to do in prison 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 on the recommendation to keep me somewhere nearby because i never been indicted i don't have no i and a family here except my life visiting me. my lawyer based in new york they're trying to deal with me so it's lost the little through most of the countess you know jail which isn't about the incident on the ground so i never could see daylight again as a punishment but as a chance to create

a smart stickles to prepare the proper appeal as a kind of a river bank for all that you know we brought the issue of the as a keep man and shoot for more than one and a home years without solid reason and through all the prism planning you know all the tricks that can play with me victor after you learned your sentence in court on april fifth you turned to the d.n.a. agents who were inside the courtroom when 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 thugs who have a name of gay drug enforcement agents and they would invent a crimes based world not only not help america through early solve the problem with a drug for sale anywhere but it's that of going to the a real problem and solve the real problem they just inventing the crime because

look there is no danger for him go to somebody who would not hide provoke do the kind o. the dirty tricks and be in friendly people instead of going out to solve the real problem with the real drug cartels 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 guys. dealers in america who's selling the arms and these are my ending up in mexico and by these arms the killing the same american citizen in mexico it's been reported that you knew you were dealing with undercover agents or at least not five 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 agents we stated that i was not sure who they are in for me to be or they've been very strange people they posing like you know

these but they way they pose the way they talk i understand immediately they have nothing to do with. fog people are told 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 so the more we've called over to read through 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 mom my company was engaged in the transportation but it was legitimate contact with a legitimate government of rwanda and we've been flying them you know accordingly they the conflict over there also 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 ten thousand men to whom they're going to pick up because whenever

they go spoon feed to 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 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 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 had bill said if you repeat the lies thousands and thousand times become the true is this is exactly the recipient reach these that read ministration using some of the people who've been following your case critics have been saying that the case is very much anti washup do you think that that's really the case or is it just you vs the us

government of course there isn't i rush and look whatever what was happening in a 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 in time of the court because we submitted appeal there and it was not finished deal because of personal involvement big pressure numerous calls will die ambassador american ambassador going on most daily and pushing the government the government decided to pass me over to the americans side like you said your papers do remain in thailand do you think i'll remain on the shelf forever or could there still be some sort of this is another building a little egypt people are really moving if there really is or any political will of thai government to prove that they have a stable justice not mockery and then not

a colony of the united states 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 closely monitoring every two weeks you have a manufactured crime and money factor it by but the idea it's regular just what's there somebody call calls for the trying and all conspiring to send airplane model loaded with explosives to the pentagon another one you know called. with an agent begging them please go and explode then i go look for the eighty seven the man from day looking for the people in the desperate stage of the need money and this is agents instead of really walking through to secure this country they just plain old manufacturing of the crime and trying all you know we're preventing the crime it's old tara well the war of terror you cannot fight against the peril because terror

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 of purely political and i think the public opinion in russia understand that and know the truth. because by the american procedures and the market actually showing them the real condition of american justice is there and real condition to reach american state coming as a police state and nothing short of dictatorship victor boot thank you very much for your time with us today. i want to thank the pentagon because there are these tough.

doing stop stories from moscow vladimir putin is back in russia's presidential saddle with all eyes now on its plans and policies after the latest wave of discontent with the be taking the top job. radical islamists say they carried out a deadly bombing in the syrian capital in response to the actions of government troops confirming fears that teller groups are fighting on the rebel side. spaniards fled the country streets for a second day as anger and hurt over austerity boil over into protests while fresh to increase puts a question mark over the fate of the u.s. . and russian rescue teams join the search for answers in indonesia at the site of that sue holy super jet crash which killed all forty five on board in the.

this is r.t. . i was given joining me on a huge day of school the summary hand here the top stories frantic finish pontiacs much the second and last champions league spot francisca as rostov have to join valda in the relegation playoffs at the end of this transitional season in russia. while the champions manchester city scored twice in stoppage time to win three to ten monkey p.r. to claim the top flight title for the first time in forty four years while bolton are relegated on an incredible final day in england. and the always one discussed by caroline his name the year league's most valuable player as the other man and now taking on a limb p.r. cost in a showpiece final in a stumble. festival ball and spartak have wanted to know

a lot about even the moscow darby to finish runners up in the russian premier league and capture the last remaining champions league spot well the red white elite from another capital side has got into second courtesy but they're going to check their magic not it sparked experts from a corner midway through the first half. and then doubled their lead five minutes before the break into mcgeady assisted in both goals the spotlight secured a berth in the third qualifying round of europe's top twelve competition. spot are also needed to scout to lose it twice former champions ribena and the army men played into their hands as they squandered a one goal lead to lose three one in concern because if you're on the put the visitors in front right before the interview but it was all real be after the restart substitute nelson wagner is grabbed requires are after less than two minutes and the pitch. denise cut an ace was the first of the rebounds to give the

home side the lead eight minutes before time and then returns provide minutes later . to set up a man. deny his god the champions league next season will be thirty six but will join test guy in the europa league playoffs off the leaf in their maiden russian coffee on wednesday. wells around here also heading into the rape elite despite a two no home defeat and champions league that's the reason the fight off voided and they are shadows cross right after the right. and the far off assisted in both huskies a late goal system just backside of that title defense on the high. was a loss because goal from inform them a sum of h.k. fourth placed a number in one one draw at cuba on the home side stop spineless in a toy opened after ten minutes of play and they clung on to what lead bots missing that it solved the draw deep into injury time the bosnian midfielder was first denied by the woodwork that kept his calm to find the back of the one that. so this

is how the top of the table thinks sinitta are already the champions and for the second year running and a joint in the champions league by spot tag discarded out of crusading sound g. and russian cup winners rubin get into the europa league and could dance to complete the top eight. while in the bottom of the day were asked off of dropped into the relegation play offs after a night two one defeat in siberia and gone from zero finally with the messiah to fifty seven minutes and then act i reckon want a mistake a second off penalty for all still they still remember matters with five minutes to go to meet we could get heading home but i can't the next pass through the last of a lifeline and went all out in search of the crucial winner but instead they conceded a penalty deep into injury time and exceeded those sports kick consigned to the playoffs to want to already relegated tom a lot of stuff could join them in the first division should they also lose their playoff double header it. was just escaping that's why else would clear three out

of after the samarra side hung on for a. one one draw time to tatt it grozny this is with a foster out of the blocks as well boy they only have five a stomach to move it's. not clear equalize some ten minutes later am i going to link up in the end it may well work combinations. and one one is how it ends just enough for a clue to stay in the top flight the first three points out of lost. and elsewhere on col one for want to time soil that is the palm is your eye hold it there are no none no facing the bios and go ahead so they know you've been sent off for a last ditch or foul just ten minutes in should not a real often do you can fight to win spots lower in the driver's seat not out numbered and cotton was gone and that a good old golf and little package struck within six minutes of the job that to give the house the least in the first top and then in the second and it's the

american saw a second jello and off he went on go gay play of stepped up to finish off the penalty in style three one then alexander's and also i was coughing and less than ten minutes ago involved it will face city rivals is now in the playoffs. while goals three continued in a southern russian dobby is relegation really does cause a dollar held to a series three draw at rock bottom spot now three full goals flew in within twelve first half minutes because there's not the braille printer that the man puts a dollar open up for us i am off to go at long last easter each night to make it to all with just twenty minutes gone nuts. with twenty minutes nest that's two two must assume netted from the penalty spot but cross and out ahead for the first time however midfield that comes out of swiftly equalized curving in a soup of freaking us out of the night and three three was how it finished.

so here's how the boston office is i will finish the song and not to go. already relegated joined vulgar in the playoffs laconia set off survived to play next season's top flight. why were england's two goals in three stoppage time minutes gave manchester city a three two win at home to ten month q.p.r. to hand them their first top flight title for forty four years on a thrilling final day in the premier league i won one off to fifty five minutes q.p.r. captain joey barton was sent off for violent conduct but then rangers took the lead to jamie mackie and that's how it stood with ninety minutes gone until late goals from injecting and. we actually had stadium from despair to delivery and the city won the title on goal difference from manchester united he still won one game at sunderland thanks to a wayne rooney first strike last not sealed third place with a three two win at west brom annoyed hodgson's last game in charge tottenham be fun to do and finish fourth newcastle if they stopped losing three wanted swans he beat

liverpool one then off to danny graham's late strike chelsea be to do with blackburn to want to norwich to aston villa to neil we can triumph three to against world bottom wolves who rejoined next season in the championship by bolton after they could only draw two two at stoke. so this is how the top of the table finished in england city win on eight goals difference from united arsenal clinched the place and guaranteed champions league football top in the fourth which could also do the same thing but it won't if chelsea win the champions league final in munich next week on you cost a fifth the things themselves six and everton get the merseyside bragging rights after finishing above liverpool and of also involved enjoying wolves and blackburn him being relegated q.p.r. survives despite that loss at city and aston villa finished two points about the drops and. possible now and said go for it and they did and i think it was named the euro league's m.v.p. added this sunday's final against limpy alcasid in stamboul the russian was also

named best defender and a member of the all year league first team along with this and that chris. well it was a timely boost for the army men who are now taking on n.p.r. in the final in istanbul where the now into the second quarter and they're leading twenty nine nineteen. now the ice hockey world championships russia have extended their one hundred percent winning streak to six games after the two know when over the czech republic in stockholm having on the show here open for russia less than an easy and therefore top score at yevgeny malkin to take their second on a power play for his status goal so far for russia top group b. and remain the only unbeaten side of the tournament while the usa thrashed finland five mill to overtake the co-host and go second in group a. now for me to go on and pastor maldonado has finished his maiden return after winning from his first ever pole position of the spanish grand prix and then as well it was overtaken by fernando alonso which started second and i was on the opening lap but the williams driver would still go back into the lead to the second pit stop form

a seven time champion michael schumacher crashed out yet again after running into the back of grimness and his car but maldonado his top form of the boston area trying to beat alongside by just over three seconds can give williams their first victory since two thousand and four alone as i came in second ahead of the lotus due out of kimi reichman. and the ferrari man is now level on points with champion and stunning to you that sebastian vettel and the german were six fastest lewis hamilton finished eighth spot having started on the back of the great. finally to tennis and serena williams has trashed well the more victoria azarenka in straight sets to win the madrid open final the two players had never met each other on trade before and particularly only clay australian open champion azhar it was after her first time of the season however the bell regime was totally outplayed losing the first set six one off the failing to convert the only breakpoint you managed to carve out and imperious williams then went on to clinch

the second six. three wrap up victory in just over an hour the former world number one smashed forty they say is to have second crown the year after so winning in charleston last month. back in there with the goal to come out. you know that's one thing i was able to do scratched off the listen now it's on keep going. forward you fredricka back from a set down to be tossed about it and win the men's final and i would take rafael the dollar as well number two but it had already begun federer twice this year and love number six broke his opponent in the second game before taking the first set six three federer then broke twice in the second to level the match and finally at six five in the third converted his fourth match point thank you third with a title and record including twentieth masters question. and that's always what this bill is in more in a couple of hours please join me again.
