arrest and imprisonment when he asked about his rights this all happened after his interview with mr all songe where they talked cyber security and freedom in the face of ever expanding government surveillance here is a bit of it don't miss the whole thing here and r.t. running all day know that suspect technology enables those also the ends of every communication then there is do do the other side of that coin is what we do with it we could admit that for which you go to tactical one there are some indeed some legitimate use investigators investigating them but goes nowhere but goes and so on may need under the supervision of the judicial authority to be able to use. such tools but the question is where to draw this judicial supervision where to group to the control that the citizens can have over the use of the stick to the jews and this is a policy should so there was jeremy and a bit earlier internet freedom activists mari mccarthy the co-founder of the

icelandic digital freedom society he too was stopped at the airport and questioned by u.s. officials about julian assange which he says he was later followed and approached by three u.s. officials in washington late at night and asked to become an informer sounds like something from the movie as far as the number of people detained or arrested shortly before or after the show might be breaking some television record among other guests there was the president of the buffer range center for human rights and i believe our job was beaten up at bahrain international airport and held in prison for almost a month after recording an interview with julian assange so what can we expect as a few now court has also raised mr songes extradition to sweden his lawyers have less than two weeks to contest that decision in sweden he's facing quite thin allegations of sexual assault which reportedly had to. with consensual but

unprotected sex but his supporters are saying it's not a songes unprotected sex that they're looking into but rather a way to get him to sweden where it would be arguably easier to hand him over to the united states judging by the reports about people being interrogated one might say that the u.s. is building a case against julian assange. if you watch the latest edition of julian a songes uncompromising interview series in full here on r.t. in less than half an hour so do stay with us for that. in other news dotson's of egyptians are filling carbo's tucker square right now calling for the execution of ousted president hosni mubarak revolutionary forces are pledging a million strong demonstration egypt's islam miss are expected to use the rally to score points for their presidential candidate who's up against mubarak's last prime minister in the runoff tom barr's reports from cairo. thousands of protesters have

surged into a tough race where in the center of cairo they are furious about of course decision about former president hosni mubarak he has been given a life sentence many of them think it should have been cautious and that the trial was a product of the old regime the situation below me which is fraught with the beats of drums and the chants of protestors is even more tense because of the soon to arrive second round of egypt's presidential election and people here are doubling angry because they say there's no real choice between the two candidates one of the candidates is the muslim brotherhood candidate mohamed mursi he has told the protest camp in an attempt to try and gain support from them and mohamed mercy has said that if he was elected president he would try it back on trial and have him executed many people though are scared that the muslim brotherhood may hijack their

revolution and bring in their own religious conservatism the other candidate who is mubarak's last prime minister has warned that the muslim brotherhood would take egypt back to the dark ages many people though do not trust him seeing him as part of the old regime. here with r t a live from moscow later this hour we'll look at what the future holds for rallies in russia that parliament is still debating imposing tougher penalties for violations take public gatherings we tell you how the fines might grow if the last. person painting by numbers we tell you what portion of the auction sold part turns out to be fake and why most collectors calm out of their money choose to keep i have. going to return to cairo for one of our top stories this hour thouse. of people if

not tens of thousands out on tucker square let's get the thoughts of muhammad's uring he's a project manager at the cairo institute for human rights studies thanks for being with us mohamed tell us what is your assessment of what's happening in egypt is this a second revolution. well actually this is a normal act after a year in the house of a mess caused by. scouts or government so would this is normal actually. what we have now we see this. in different doesn't square all over egypt is an omen of the judgment of the lot of them to have a lively and he's a sister. we sold that we think that this judgment is not for sure mubarak is sentenced by life sentence and i mean i believe as well. but the judgment itself didn't. didn't give evidence that there is

it's a police committed crimes against the protests against peaceful protests so that's means that what the what the government you've just seen. the same cause which is right through to the school to sell them for the year in the house that the. party always trying to do with doing and just going to do about demands and killings of protesters so divided their judgment was exactly hold the scene cause of the scene stories that's just trying to selling for you on the. side of the criticism of scouts the supreme council of the armed forces for our audience who might not know there are a lot of. those behind last year's uprising that claim their revolution has been stolen not only by scouts but also. by by the politics. happen i mean no candidate

really represents the revolution how likely is it that their anger could be used ahead of the elections by the islamist candidate perhaps who promises a mubarak retrial this is what the people want to hear isn't it. excuse me i didn't hear you well how well do you think that is the miss candidates are going to do by promising that mubarak i will have a retrial isn't that what the protesters want to hear. well actually also. presidential elections lead. to people. to go back to the streets and just squares again because of. we have a lose lose situation right now we got we got presidential elections first we have . two choices the most of those choices is not what the

people who sacrificed for the first choice is. the last prime minister for mubarak and. he's frankly speaking. he respects mubarak and he respects the former president and we have another choice is mohamed morsi morsi who we had all for freedom and justice party which are related to the muslim brotherhood also those two choices not believe in more christian or human rights than the. if we see for the what what are the people going to do when they go to the polls and if you say all of the choices are not what the people want on talk or square right now who are they going to vote for. what is the goal of the protesters know one thing if they have these options which is not what the revolution stood for who will they vote for in the runoff what are

their choices not practically but do they have a choice if all of these candidates are not representing the revolution. well we don't have. we don't have huge choices actually and sort of lesion or is a very bad situation they don't have any choices. that this reason the result of the presidential elections the first round was because of it was normal because of . stories of staff trying to do too even if you usually chose to have everything that every single was doing in egypt was by sort of the usual and caused by is that we saw the norm it's a people we're going to do to find some stability by voting for ometer feet or the muslim brothers are voting for or for mohamed morsi but actually for now we don't have a real choice and this is this is a problem that we are in because we started the wrong actually the start was wrong

from the very beginning because of from the very beginning there was a commission to to to form a presidential committee and to do to work to have a constitution first and then second actions bought. and sold to. choose to have various. parliamentarians who lections and. parliament is that we need to buy islamist power and don't even want to cheer the. constitutional it's a constitutional right it was. also for political powers in egypt son azhari who are going to have a game to rival you their project manager at cairo institute for human rights studies thank you very much for your analysis this hour that's all we have time for right. now it's a partnership widely seen as a counterbalance to the influence of the u.s. president vladimir putin's high profile visit to china is expected to foster

already strong ties that's aside from obvious economic interests the neighbors also see eye to eye on major international disputes such as the syrian conflict also sharing concerns over u.s. expansion in the asia pacific and like syria says he is in beijing for us. it is the first state visit to britain as russia's president to china something that each president of any country can do only once during his presidential term definitely many experts have already been saying that the fact that. china as one of the first destinations to becoming russia's president for the third time means that russia and china will continue to be very strong strategic partners the main focus among all the media and everyone here was at the for invective the relations between beijing and moscow and certainly the two leaders have reconfirmed that they have unified stances on most of the issues they touched upon the growing concerns in the

asian pacific region namely certainly the growing military presence of the united states here and that's where a lot even if we don't know who said that they have a unified stance as well as mentioning the events in north africa and in the middle east basically we do understand as well that russia and china have a unified position on the syrian conflict and that is not going to change according to both leaders of this very close cooperation between china and russia has certainly gaining some concerns in the west in the united states particularly because china is growing stronger every year both economically and militarily so definitely this is raising some concerns but now we have confirmed from the both leaders that this cooperation will not die down and will only increase and only strengthen in the years to come. we have more for you next hour about china when a former i.m.f. economist tells us how measuring monetary muscle is helping

a punch its weight against the u.s. . if the united states gets so much economic trouble right that it will have to borrow money and if only china has the money to avoid the u.s. china might say well we don't like your military presence in the pacific naval presence and you have to go get rid of them so they can all be our can always be leveraged for political and foreign policy objectives. the u.s. and its allies are preparing for syria's transition of power the white house says president also of handing control to the opposition will help bring an end to the fifteen months of bloodshed but a number of western and arab states have long been pushing for regime change while also has maintained his nation's real war comes from outside meanwhile reports have emerged suggesting britain is planning to set up camps in syria where troops and agents will help the rebels fight against the government middle east expert eric i

believe believes foreign powers are largely responsible for the country's dire situation. when the americans vassal states like group some talk about transition what they are effectively mean is regime change that is what they did in libya with dire consequences as we can see in that country today in syria the plan to bring both sides to the table and have a negotiated settlement is obviously the best way to move forward but the united states and britain and their other allies have absolutely no pressure on the other side to come to the negotiations negotiating table and start a process of dogs so it would appear to me that what we now have is an end game situation where the united states has decided to remove this regime and who

use everything in a spot to do so but don't forget all our coverage is available for you at our team dot com here's a look at what else you can discover why you are there in ten years for tweeting at kuwaiti mass thrown behind bars for insulting the prophet mohammad on twitter. exclusively for you at r.t. dot com why a random school drug screening from the u.s. our dangerous check out ten kirby's why you should care what kept. secret laboratory to mccurry was able to build the world's most sophisticated robot which on fortunately doesn't give a darn about anything to mission to teach creation why it should care about humans and. this is why you should care what you're only on our to dot com. punishments for violations during public rallies could get tougher in russia

a draft bill is getting social and political groups fired up and artie's peter all over brings those details from outside parliament where more than eight hours of debate have set a new record. the ruling united russia party proposed these changes to the law that would see an increase the fines against those people taking part or all get icing unsanctioned protests that are being debated at the moment just behind me in the state duma building as it stands at the minute if you will call taking part in an unsanctioned protest you could face a fine of around sixty euro full fifteen days in prison now should this proposal go through we could see those fines rice sharply to as much as seven thousand euro this has caused a i stole amongst opposition political parties as well as online in the blogosphere now those who are in favor of these changes to the law were talking really about the ruling united russia party here defended by saying it brings russia into line

with the rest of europe though if we look elsewhere and what type of fines and what type of sentences can come into into play take from for example where if you take part in all through ice demonstration of protest if you wear a mosque or anything that would cover your face to the try and hide your identity you could face a fine of forty five thousand euro close up history years in prison in switzerland that fine could go as high as seventy five thousand euro the reason the united russia is deemed that these changes to the old need to be made a comes off the back of the wave of county government protests that we've seen really since december of last year when the palm entry elections they were held note for the majority of these protests of being peaceful of says however in spring of this year we saw them to nasty and we had seen some protesters attacking police officers a number of police officers were injured during those demonstrations and lawmakers saying that these changes need to be made in order to make sure that russia's

cities in the streets of russian cities are safe and that those trying those police officers trying to keep those streets safe kept safe themselves. it's twenty minutes past. now or a look at some world headlines for you al qaeda is second most senior militant has been killed in a drone strike in pakistan's northwest tribal region that's according to american officials a million dollars bounty was placed on. a high profile al qaeda terrorist who once escaped from a top security u.s. military prison pakistan earlier condemn such drone attacks declaring them against international law and the country's sovereignty. there have been scuffles in ukraine over a new of language law which if passed will officially allow russian to be used alongside ukrainian in some regions around nine thousand people both for and against the proposal rallied outside parliament but the bill won an initial majority its opponents are mainly nationalists keen to keep ukrainian as the only

go under the hammer every day in london's west end but how can our love is be sure of what they're buying according to scotland yard a staggering fifty percent of all are sold is fake what we're looking at these days is of a very considerable increase in faking of twentieth century i've seen a number of provincial auction houses and. so fakes. a considerable scale and i think it's something that we will accept a lot of forgeries are also sold on auction websites but it's not just internet bias he can be taken in by the full which is brush the latest auction house to come into the spotlight with christie's which is involved in a high court battle with russian tycoon victim back so he paid more than two and a half million dollars for a painting he thought was by prominent russian artist bodies still and yes i need

to find out later that it appears to have been signed for several years after death the case will go on for nineteen days and according to experts will probably cost more than the painting itself which is one reason why more of these claims don't go to court but another buyer of russian art when confronted with lemons made lemonade eager to busiek off discovered his art collection meant to fund his retirement was mostly forgeries now he's displaying the paintings as a warning to others. when we have gone dark of our money where a shame to talk of it i'm trying to be the first who says don't be ashamed of showing us because we believe you who no one would doubt now the time has passed and we realize we made a mistake and it's important to publicize the mistake because the quantity of russian figs is such that it does. it's great it's national art. busy of course
