a conference on the transition of power all of this as part of their effort to oust the syrian leader. fighting continues in libya with over one hundred killed in a week of tribal clashes as the interim government fails to end violence in the post gadhafi state. and while julian assange is fighting his battle against extradition to sweden and for political asylum from ecuador we discussed the future of his wiki leaks project with the website's press spokesman kristen huffs on what's next. thank you very much for joining us can you tell us how you came to join wiki leaks well. joining us ours was working quite a lot in iceland in the winter of two thousand and nine and two thousand and ten and after actually here year we could be produced a tremendously important leak in two thousand and nine with exposed corruption

within the iceland banks. superstation school. of the light on why the entire banking system in iceland webster two thousand and eight i met him in that the period when he was doing. among other things on supporting the project the icelandic modern media initiative. we befriended he. showed me the collateral murder video i was at the time working for the state television and of course offered my help and it became. basically a joint project to with between the ice and the state television and we can use. and join then we can use pool time in the summer of two thousand and ten and how's it being feel you've been described as sort of the second public face of wiki leaks having stepped into this much more spotlighted role so to speak at such a difficult time with wiki leaks. have you been finding it i've been finding

extremely interesting and it journalist would find it interesting to take part in the biggest leaks in history. basically transform. politics in certain areas and it's been a total game changer it's a paradigm change is saying is a generous but it's like working and what do you perceive is the other journalists response because we've seen a lot of the. wiki leaks and julian assange. well i mean there is a very mixed feelings among journalists and we have worked with a lot of excellent journalist who understand the importance of what we can use we also work with other journalists who have to go back and we have failed. very strange and most of the. people of the world. it is hard to say what exactly forces so. they have many of them being. dishonest and spiteful in their in their. covering of. i have no

idea. but it's extremely strange there's a disappointing two to experience that for me as a journalist for more than twenty years but it's a fact ok i want to talk to you about wiki leaks as a how do you think there's a concern there that the focus is moved away somewhat from the really important aspect of it which is these incredible leaks. actually this sort of idea about wiki leaks as a whole in julian assange that's maybe a shadowing more important aspect of it now does that concern me well i mean the focus has. always been an independent kind of thing that we have not been able to always. decide upon how it was handled i mean. for example like in the first probably the day too. the collateral murder video.

release in april of two thousand and ten i was surprised by the fact that the biggest stories were actually on the leak itself and secondly on julian assange has . the fact that this is a video that is exposing. a war crime got much less attention and still hasn't gotten the attention it deserves but it's the media for you. the media will decide where the focus is and that's the reality we live in a way to see the future of wiki leaks always very hard i mean we have. we have been starved of ninety five percent of our funds julian assange is facing a legal battle. we know that in virginia there is a secret grand jury trying to find those of bringing cases against julian and or possibly others in the organization. people that have and are supporting we can use

our being harassed when they. tell us even us citizens so we it's hard to see where the future is but. i believe that despite. everything we look back at the accomplishments are we could do so they are . great in this period to say this is a battle between wiki leaks in big corporations government. is a battle. against corruption. and lies secrecy. and he thinks going to win. well it's hard to say but let's hope that. rupert murdoch was right in the early fifty's when he was on a tour in australia where he. wrote in the editorial.

in the race between truth and secrecy truth will always win. i hope he'll remember these words himself but somehow i doubt if you're an effective journalist and i think. which is the thing that is being one of the world's strongest when it comes to the legal rights protected to whistleblowers what you think is the other countries are following state well iceland is on the path of changing the laws to to make it a very strong. shield for journalists and whistleblowers. it's a long term projects but after the economic collapse in no time two thousand and eight when everybody was agreed was caused by lack of transparency and likely formation so this is a. nation was. ready for for a total overhaul of the legal system it will take some time but sometimes shock

like that from the entire nation spectacular show total meltdown economy. creates the right atmosphere for. decide for improvement in this nature one of the part of things that can come out of such situations but i suppose the shocks can also work the other way because the scene of this is the u.s. and some extent by sort of almost taking steps backwards and there's a sense maybe that these big corporations that are now under threat that the sort of transparency wiki leaks would bring fighting back against this now. now with that is certainly the trend i mean the situation comically are worse stream with dire i mean it was a. spectacular meltdown i mean the banking sector. was ten times the size of the local economy ten times the g.d.p. of iceland when it all collapsed over a few days you can imagine the consequences. in other places like here in britain i

mean there was a bailout. basically the taxpayers had to shoulder the burden to keep the banks like they were too big to fail. years which. all over all over yet what we're seeing of course was this trend. which was so much to. crack down it was a point with. totally contrary to to be slow and gradual improvement in the legal environment that we've seen. over the years. of longo with some more protection i was introduced here in u.k. a similar one and us but still we received basically a systematic crackdown on whistleblowers especially in the us a very serious one were all from one nine hundred seventeen the espionage act it's been used to. haunt those who are basically blowing the whistle blowing the whistle

on. illegalities corruption which is hurting the general public and costing the taxpayer money ok so we think that the legal protections afforded to potential whistleblowers can't necessarily be relied on at the moment which is an organization that predates these anonymous leaks what can you actually offer a whistleblower when they come to you how much genuine protection can you offer then. we'll have you know the a track record of. is impressive in that respect i mean nothing no nobody that has contributed material to weeklies has been exposed by anything that we can use has done so. hopefully the states like that we have we are still working on reopening the anonymous electronic dropbox which allows people to submit information to is with. it being traced to them in any

manner we we wouldn't be able to do it ourselves even let's hope that they will that will open soon meanwhile we've heard from a shouldn't delivered. who us and published had been asleep but. it is a very very important channel to have for whistleblowers ok thank you very much it's a. wealthy british style site. but i'd like to find. the. market why not

come to. find out what's really happening to the global economy with max cause or for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune into kaiser report on our. today children play war in the old keys me. much enjoy nine hundred forty one these walls were the first barrier for the nazi troops on their way to moscow and. the funders of breast cancers were dying one by one under cecil sun without food water. supply. in the last shelter an unnamed soldier left a few simple words farewell motherland i'm dying but i'm not surrendering.

the slight favorite at the national stadium in warsaw where neither side have been allowed to try to save the pitch you had of this evening showdown. bento is expected to name an unchanged side to the one that beat denmark and the netherlands with bruno elevation around the area that's both overcoming the knocks picked up against the dutch inventor says his team have what it takes to their third win in iraq at the championships. not like we have said there is a game in front of us that could get us to the semifinal that says something about the truth about the game tomorrow we will see the game czech republic versus portugal and that is what we're interested in we will play with the organization willpower passion talent and that is the most important thing for us if we win we will be very glad about it and if we don't deserve to win then we want well portugal star man christiane are now there has been interim antal for them his double in their two one win over the netherlands put them through to the last state alone portugal are quick to point out the rae on madrid is not the only one in the

team. well it's naturally there is a lot of talk about the best player in the world it's very natural to talk about him all the time but he is in our team to help us like all of us were here with the same goal and that is to help our team. is a leader and he will continue to do his work for the team as for the czechs they could be with their most influential player thomas resists he has an achilles tendon problem and although he did train on tuesday is that he will start on the bench with daniel cola deputizing in midfield the arsenal man though has confidence in his teammates and is pointed out of weakness and we're now days. well what i remember in the matches i played against him is that he's a good attacker but he doesn't want to defend of course if someone is on such a high level you can afford not to help the defense and just poor goals while the czechs will be hoping to repeat their famous win over the portuguese that year

ninety six carob or city strike sending them into the semifinal sixteen years ago and that's something that still lives in the memory of their coach michael billy. because it was opposite of course we remember this matchup it was exceptional for czech football we reached the final for the quarter finals in the lobby of carroll that was amazing and we wouldn't be angry if we repeated the same result of course i think the situation is similar portugal is also a favorite with strong individual players and strong teams and i think that if we were peter performance of the previous two matches we have a chance to go through all the miles dutch forward to canada has been given a warm welcome at his new club thrown about the former liverpool man has been unveiled in front of fans and he stamboul the turkish side have qualified for next season's champions league and can says he is determined to win more trophies off the claim just the solitary league cup myself during his six years on merseyside.

by small and well no team has recovered from a three one deficit in the n.b.a. finals but oklahoma haven't given up hope and this. man kevin durant is a term to turn things around in front of his home fans. react to what a chance to. take it back to oklahoma city. tomorrow we can win three games in a row here. we can win the series but next day we're going to take it possession it's a game. so you know tomorrow of course is a. very come out of four. and we'll end with a multi-sport event that takes a grueling twenty four hours to complete the annual red fox adventure race involves riding on bikes kayaking climbing and running and was held for the tenth time close to the russia finland border with more is constantine patel. every year the red fox adventure race takes place somewhere new and every year it becomes more and more

difficult dangerous and extreme this time out it was on the russian side of the corral a region along with its savage yet beautiful scenery the can better is forced to burst through various obstacles a new route covering a distance of foremost three hundred kilometers on mountain bikes kayaks and on food with many interesting checkpoints along the way after writing more than one hundred kilometers away the competitors will have to quine twenty metres down this area to reach their next checkpoint. after climbing down the added climber speak for entrance to an underground cave the competitors then change scenery with a battle down the river the challenge here every word in the rapids before reaching this stormy way to see. the organizers certainly making sure the boredom wouldn't become an issue next task climbing up in mountain on

a deserted island for another check point polls have been changed this adventure race is always like an expedition to the organizers drop you somewhere in the wild nature and you have to find your way through a one hundred and fifty kilometer kayaking stage turned out to be the most exhausting however being up so northern li on the globe the race was able to be held in the midnight sun with most of the competitors deciding not to stop or sleep instead mortaring on through the breeze to nature this is the second day of the red fox adventure race and the first athletes to reach the finish line were expected to stop the clock at thirty six hours however these iron man and iron woman move mountains braved forest and the wait sea to make it in less than twenty five hours . redfox adventure race three time winners eager to clear and doing this a formula eventually taking the crown i think it is and we love such adventure

races bikes in the river and the wide sea and climbed up and down mountains and that all happened during twenty four hours you can hardly do all that anywhere else . they infuse ism of the competitors simply a joy to behold despite the fact that the rhone forty of the sixty four teams managed to reach the finish line it was clear that everyone was happy just to take part in the ten year old event now officially the biggest and most prestigious adventure race in the country constantine brought up of archie russia the republic of korea. exhausting stuff that is always fought for the mindset well in test.
