secure asylum in ecuador meeting the country's president in the process. of the country's london embassy. believes is a cover for eventual prosecution in the united states. big story next exclusively speaks to christine. about the fight for america's role in the process. well thank you very much christine perhaps for being here today with us in this show. just to start how do you feel about the work that your son has done and the effect that it's had on the rod on and policies of the united states the reactions that have occurred since then and but also on his life and and us his mother or the perception that you've had of his work and what he's done when he initially started

wiki leaks told me that he was doing something to help. people in repressive regimes to be able to whistleblowers see this and this was closed to be able to get the truth out about some of the abuses that were happening in the country and for you that's what happened and he circles and the way in which he was it would work but then when the documents kind we keep the extra books on america things will change. it was all right she produced documents that other countries but as soon as the united states was embarrassed his life became three. so i have two reactions one is the mother of course i wish he'd never done as a nothing but as a citizen hadn't visited with he lives is down to the intense fear is it the world that gives it the corruption kidnapping exhaustion.

of torture. and fraud involved in big financial institutions of course i completely support my son so can you talk a little bit about your son who has joined us and. his lovely wife a lot of the media says he is. a. very simple easy this has started over to really stick and it is quite even still has quite litigious woodrow. and the only time we can make snakes if you mix is a known not for profit organization and they are on modest wages including julian. so this was not in any way to create it. and financial impact some people say it's. it's actually quite a shock to some. only which kind of the media with me really.

in a fit sort of big way when the american disclosures came out because he needed to defeat wiki. and. so it's not really his way to kind of the cameras. and if you knew him personally he would find that it's a little different from what you've seen from the candidates it's much more relaxed his has a very good sense of humor. he would smile more like what did you imagine i mean growing up or even in his early years that this is something that he could have done had he wanted to be a physicist. and. molecular physicists is another word for it he wanted to discover. the source of the universe that was what he wanted to do and i guess it's a similar sort of thing his always been to that truth in some form. when it was

scientific truth or philosophical truth. so he has probably why realigned even the little hallway. his question was always why on earth is the inquiry is actually quite a creative person when he was doubt five he used to wake up the harmonica and play blues how very very intellectually and he can also draw a bit of fire in essence person that chosen to direct it and he can write beautifully and so he's chosen to direct his energies into a key x. which is a bicycling. journalism combined with engine it. is a good father who is the young falcon and many people don't realize this that. that is a certain point julian's. that his son's mother was unable to care for. julian assange and his fifteen and. it was a single file the minute news. and he had to sell custody of his son from the time

he was a day not so old and he gave up his studies. gave up his career to stay home and look after my grandson until he went to school and then just worked part time after that so that he could be his only fan as he just had one child there too his two children but i don't want to talk of course because i'm trying to protect the family. do you think that your son's life is in danger absolutely. from the beginning. from the u.s. from politicians and for. news commentary it's what they were screaming out his mood out in the most brutal way this interview no. filter at all on how they were feeling. calling out for the brutal force of murder inciting move against myself. and still in the last few weeks. there's

been a fox who says his integrity think it's fox news who paid the balance who was screaming out to julian six occasions this is somebody who is not right in the world and has done nothing more than any good in this a good journalist would do just to be an interesting one is one very rewards for where you are now quite obviously advocating for your son are you here particularly to advocate for his political asylum request is the authority history invited me so that i could speak to him that there were going knew that the conditions in this trial for example by the government has suspended him can you talk a little bit about that yes well unfortunately for stray. we have. a prime minister who is really can only really be described as a puppet for the us who prove already is twenty seven percent the people are not

happy with that war and from the beginning the prime minister. condemned my son. in the media sticking ahead of a case which is unheard of in a strange way to speak about a case and commits judgment upon a person prior to a trial she jeopardized his right to due to the presumption of innocence by saying that what he did was even. she actually proved preceded the american government in those statements and. despite the fact that this trial in federal police. some two weeks later. after this decided to do it had broken no laws at all in a strange land and the u.s. treasury had refused to blacklist wiki leaks because they could find no crime that it being commuted to stay in prime minister julia gillard. continued to phone my

son in the media do you think that out the australian government would hand over to the united states if they had the part about it of doing something silly. this is a great concern given that the united states has been labeling its own citizens as low level terrorists. so with that with america being within the top five countries executing their own citizens in the world and that actually is go ahead it seems like a sieve and. from what here to nine hundred eighty. this is a great concern so you're sam has been passably fastly accused most likely fast the accused he's now been detained. for over a year and a half in england and there appear to be secret grand juries against him in the united states in requests for severe punishment against him what do you think would happen to jury and if he were actually to the united states well ahead sophist head

if emotional what the sludge have been apart from what they do each one of their own soldiers bradley manning. which the un report on torture says is cruel and inhumane treatment and it's very concerned i was on a pedal. cambridge capital city and the asylum and one of the other speakers was at his trial you called david hicks who has been six years in guantanamo bay now. president obama came to office with a promise to close it down guantanamo bay but it hasn't been cause and effect this thirty billion dollars with the. fiberoptics going to do as we speak. and a bit told lee told all the all you guys about his treatment in guantanamo bay and this is something that we could expect if you were if not worse because david hicks was a very minor by so. terrified what will happen to myself. so

kristina here in ecuador or to support his request for political asylum you've met with foreign minister met with the president do you think that he's going to get political asylum here i can't say that all i can say is that. was very impressed by the level of intelligence and knowledge already that the foreign minister and the president and his other ministers of the dozen ministers today as well head off the case much more that my government was willing to admit. they do know all they've been given the evidence has met no understanding. or deliberately strippers if you to the people there was very warm. i feel very comforted by being with these good people i felt at the concert for chile was to you and. they have expressed that they believe the case is political and it. really disgraceful the way that the rule of law is being abused and the use of my son's

human rights and equal rights and. they are going to be looking at if we. so they can make it sound decision and they're leaving no stone unturned to find at the truth and that's all i can ask of them at this stage the documents they're impaired by wiki leaks have been incredibly useful for many of us doing investigative reporting in latin america because of course they are disclosed all kinds of. different evidence of u.s. meddling in the affairs of other countries in the region and particularly against those that have progressive governments. yes if i don't have much time you've got but the one the one country with one cable that moves me the most with the haiti cable if you read ahead to live in terror yeah many of them share your opinions and for us to take advantage of a country that was guy the whole country was going through from the speaker's quick

and she used that blackmail when she tried to get it minimum wage attempts down. refused if i am to block attempts by venezuela to reduce the cost of oil to sixty percent said it could be always hospitals and schools and then for the u.s. embassy to syndicate pull back from haiti to the u.s. say the gold rush is on to the same u.s. contractors who were found doubling quotes in routing after hurricane katrina. after over a decade and that was it and i looked at others that that is the one that i think touched my heart the most. of the leg of a fix. and the brutal materialism to do that to country it's a whole country suffering with that amount of disgrace we thank you so much for taking the time to do the center here that's today thank you.

a nice breaker but their current plan is just as daring and near insurmountable well at least for now because i never got the regatta i was initially set up in order to jumpstart tourism in russia up until may of this year foreign boats needed a special decree by the prime minister in order to access russian waters while all flags are now welcome here the mechanism is still far from running smoothly adventure races help for the second time this year and we proved that it's possible to have eight yachts from poland germany norway finland and russia began their trip in st petersburg visiting and number of sites on the way to want to get over it for a week period but the trip for your strewed he began in the harbor of solid it's good islands where i found out that one does not have to be a professional sailor or extremely wealthy in order to visit one of the world's most unchartered territory he's french tourist pierre and maya instantly became one with the crew and will bring back some unforgettable memories from the white sea in
