but i guess the overwhelming backing from fellow american nations in israel with britain overgenerous songe condemning efforts to undermine the sanctity of a. definitely new here but let the military reprisals which would be truly be hard to spanish channel talks exclusively to editors president about the hurdles his country may face for backing the world's most famous whistleblower. and egypt's new leader extend the hand of friendship to name one and i just received as a country breaking away from washington's influence. history i'm here in moscow you're watching r t with me to say ecuador has scored

another point in this diplomatic row with britain over granting asylum to julian assange thirty four member bloc of american nations has declared solidarity and support for the country condemning the u.k. as a earlier threats to storm its embassy in london to get to the whistle blow up morris minutes in britain then brings us the details it was a meeting that lasted five hours but eventually got what it wanted out of the meeting essentially they the foreign minister made a speech in which he condemned britain for what he called an assault on all sovereignty and eventually what happened was that these thirty four countries signed this resolution which rejects any attempts to put at risk the inviolability of diplomatic premises anywhere in the world and and expressed solidarity and support for ecuador in their offering of asylum to julian assange but also to continue talks between ecuador and. britain to try and sort out their diplomatic

problems the usa and canada are members of this organization and they were very much against this meeting from the very beginning and they all say their expressed reservations about the resolution that was passed in the end but it goes to show that particularly in its own region ecuador is not acting alone and it's now got huge international backing across the americas but we've seen no movement in britain stance so far they still remain committed to arresting julian assange which adds to fulfilling this court order which says that he must be extradited to sweden whatever happens and in fact we've seen further proof in recent days that britain is not going to abandon its plans to arrest him we had a policeman photographed outside the ecuadorian embassy one of the many policemen who is guarding the embassy twenty four seven holding this piece of paper a piece of restricted information that says that you do not sign should be arrested essentially at all costs whatever it takes even if he emerges in some way in

a diplomatic car even if as some have posited here merges in some kind of diplomatic crate or bag that is not going to put the british police off arresting him that they're really very intent on arresting him and fulfilling this court order so that it's a position that hasn't changed in the last few days and i see no reason that it will change as soon as a direct result of this but as i say the international pressure is growing meanwhile of course still in the ecuadorian embassy in london still very unclear how he will get out. well for ecuador it's not just about us not just fate any longer has a country may still have to face harsh consequences for its gesture president rafael correa exclusively shared his view on the issue with r.t. spanish channel has a preview of his interview coming your way next. normally such a decision shouldn't have any consequences that is if all countries respect international law which clearly says that the state has the right to drive to some

of them how many times is sweden granted asylum but unfortunately in this particular case we see that some countries are displaying their colonial and imperial ambitions there is this interesting it turns out that if ecuador grant asylum to someone it's certainly much of consequences there is definitely no fear but let's face it some leader might be reprisals which would be terrible if the u.k. for example on its roots and invades our embassy to arrest the stone age you mention how big of a precedent this would set. nuclear talks between iran and the un atomic watchdog have once again had an impasse with no date set for further negotiations this limit republicans stuck with crippling sanctions and continued accusations of pursuing an atomic bomb the allegations were fueled by to run reportedly stepping up its uranium enrichment program which it insists is peaceful the melody from the last of the iranian american consul says

the country had no other choice. western sanctions have been escalating the pressure on iran has been escalating and to expect a country to sit on its hands well it's having these pressure tactics level at it is completely unrealistic so for iran i think when it looks at this situation it had several opportunities regarding how does it respond how does it escalate in turn and it could have taken far more provocative actions i think actually installing these centrifuges was probably the lowest grade retaliation to the western sanctions and some of the threats of war at the end of the day it's still the judgment of the united states of israel of all of the western intelligence agencies that you run has not begun to actually build a nuclear weapon they have not made that decision yet and so all this talk about war zones of immunity and so forth is completely premature and counterproductive to

actually resolving this conflict. well they're hoping to get a look inside the iranian military base is one thing at one point is that as three hundred missile launch are still ahead when it could be a failed system once converted by its run and how it's being developed into a sophisticated weapon here in russia. and greece fails to get a real show and says it long for despite its charm offensive in europe and that will mean more time for the economy. opponents of egypt's president have clashed with his supporters in cairo and alexandria the anti-government protesters like president morsi and his muslim brotherhood party of overstepping the authority and undermining paula meant most these kinds of trying to establish new foreign policy that's seen as moving away from american influence egypt's leader heads to china next week seeking investment then it's a trip to iran which is one of the west's main phones right now michael hughes from

the new world's exchanges coalition predicts a significant rebalance. the unspoken link here is israel you know it's egypt can leverage this relationship and vice versa to put pressure on israel to stop you know this loose talk of bombing iran you know there's a connection for morsi starts looking like a geo political genius if you can pull this off if he can get i israel though it was step back on the whole bombing iran thing better be pretty amazing they find a partner in iran and they don't have to rely on the u.s. they want the line in israel and they can offset counterbalance the gulf monarchies they're trying to rebalance and shift away from the west and they need the immediate cash from the west they need it from the i.m.f. and the united states and the gulf monarchies long term they want to get in bed with china who can fill the gap so they don't have to rely on the west anymore beijing gets asked to access the mediterranean in some suez canal priorities which

the u.s. gets currently. and you know because other than that it is hard to see that china's going to get much but those two things are pretty big they want they want port access and they want to ally align themselves with the nonaligned and align with the chips you know taken away from us is a win for china. the background in this is to egypt's turbulent transformation can be found. but learned plenty more online for you to the university of the wild west why colorado students can now tag guns as well as books in this quote back. that's no reason mass murder and his brave big heads for decades long stay in jail but turns out it really might not be so bad after all. and to miss out on bloodshed not a was signed but a football match russian politicians go on the rampage putting their team's future and european competition is in jeopardy.

you're watching r t thanks for being with us russian energy giant gazprom has joined the club of companies are literally coming under attack from greenpeace six environmental activists ambush one of the firm's floating oil reason the actiq and protests against plans are to drill in the area despite warnings of from platform workers activists managed to latch onto the rig suspending themselves off it for fifteen al is a claim they were then sprayed with water from above and retreated to avoid risk in the freezing conditions environmental campaign and christopher williams says a several nations are getting increasingly interested in a slice of the ethic energy reserves and they don't think it will keep greenpeace busy the oil that is below the arctic is up to twenty five percent of world reserves there are countries vying for control of optical oil those countries i

think are pretty determined to start drilling the russia being the first one is now provoking protests from greenpeace scheldt very keen to drill have been given allowances from the obama administration to begin exploring the process it'll be interesting i think to find out where the greenpeace i would expect them to also be protesting just as vigorously western oil companies when they start drilling as they have been no occupying the gas from oil rig. still to come home grown product has struggled to break through a strict economic barrier policy in the pharmacy that cops go to waste because only israeli regulations. and the way in new york to ask the people there don't give a few words about the democrats and republicans increasingly dominated it means.

no sign of relief for greece not its p.r. blitz in europe to try and win more time to elect the painful reforms promised to its creditors the greek prime minister has met the french president after seeing the german chancellor a day earlier both of the e.u. paymasters have held back from giving greece the breathing space it says it urgently needs to get americans under rising pressure at home with the parliament leaders say neither the time nor the content can really go as it management specialist delivered one grand because no matter how hard the sky is it won't be able to pay back what it. greece is bankrupt i think there's no discussion about that today. two or three years ago even with the hardest possible work and a lot of cut and extremely or story. greece won't be able to pay back the huge amount of that they have loaded to their shoulder there's only one way of rescue greek gaining of competitiveness in greece and this is the exit from

the euro zone and politicians always argue there are enormous costs involved with the exit of chris that's perfectly right but what is the amount of costs in wall of greece staying within the euro zone. britain may not be using the euro but its finances continue to feel the pinch from the eurozone debt despite this new numbers show the economy had actually tanked less than predicted the spark of optimism however gets a cold show a treatment from archies max kaiser and stacey have it the full program is coming up in some thirty minutes from now. is what happens when the government throws money at the the oligarchs and the monopolies the oil companies and the bankers because when they stop giving them money they can pull the old atlas shrugged that we like. you know we're not going to work anymore we're in a gatekeeper position we're wedged into the economy if you don't give us more money

we're call systemic collapse which is ridiculous because the government if they want to give away money they should give it away to the entrepreneurs' they should give it away to the consumers it is a consumer economy after all why not help the consumers know that never go to george osborne ya'll to eat ox for you know friend of cameron georgie porgie is bubbling fraud putting. products labeled made in palestine symbol of pride for their producers however due to the israelis economic blockade is a palestinian form a struggle to get their goods to the rest of the world but as our policy i found out things are about to change. this tiny bottle of olive oil is at the heart of an economic battle it may be small and expensive but it's one of those products that defines where people stand in the ideological battlefield of the middle east from palestine to europe and beyond each purchase is seen as

a shot in an economic war. other people are not sufficiently aware that israeli settlement products are competing with palestinian products abroad also when we tell the customer that there is a difference between settlement products and israeli products they understand we're living under occupation and they can choose what products to buy or not and more and more consumers are choosing not to buy israeli products the region eighteen in the settlements in palestinian territories they are seen by many as the foods of the occupation the world government of my god movement by god more. than us. distributors to carry venison and products the problem is all in the name and it's difficult to make a product stand out from those from the israeli settlements in our products can't say made in palestine because we're under occupation and not yet a state they can say made in the west bank or made in gaza or a palestinian product and for some companies like this palestinian pharmaceuticals

company in the west bank it's even worse it can't even sell in its own backyard a lot of the love to be able just love to be distributed in israel because. any brother. but it's will be rejected by the security is being restricted to the palestinian market is causing a lot and creating economic difficulties for the farmers. everyone here grows olives and so the local market is very small and the competition big we don't get much money for either it is part of a bigger problem when the demand is there the occupation means more often than not farmers are prevented from gathering water or even getting to the land it means. even half of palestinian crops go to waste but there is hope in a corner of the remote city of janine this private company is helping farmers overcome their troubles and get into international markets here the islands are processed pressed and stored as is an order comes through the oil is pumped up here

from where it is boxed in bottled to international standards it appears demand is growing specially in the us we find that as much as our specialty shops and obs are excited to find anything in specialty goods in the marketplace they are calculating ok what backlash am i going to get from zionist bloggers in the marketplace this snag is that these products sell for almost double the value because of the cost of getting them to market the hope for producers here is that the supporters around the world won't begrudge the few extra dollars for a bottle of olive oil and rather they'll see it as a gesture of support policy r t janine in the palestinian autonomy. now legacies in the u.s. is entering the home stretch of both republicans and democrats will hold their national conventions in the coming weeks artie's in new york to ask what these gatherings accomplish and whether anyone will notice.

in the u.s. republicans and democrats are about to hold their conventions to kick off the presidential election fever and so one of these conventions even do this week let's talk about that you're throwing your eyes i say convention into that stuff why are you into politics they're all crooks yes but we have to choose right all crooks what do the conventions do do you think what do they do they were so out of money that's what they do good for media purposes because they can create a lot of hype around certain condit so yes i think they do too so we really need more hype. in today's world to yeah do you spend a ton of money on it just by whether an advertiser can prize you on the news and then it stops at a certain time and then from then on it's business as usual so we don't do this where you go from start to start and i think that i mean you just said the key word business i think there's a lot of money on the table in american ballot there and that's a bit of

a worry is the cassette within for the truth. if they put money into the numbers that i want something out of a donor but i think the whole political process is crazy the amount of money they spend on ads and different things it's just ridiculous and it's not truthful the ads are generally false fake and just you know don't really serve any purpose it's a lot of waste of money for the taxpayers you know who do you think is going to get dirty or romney or obama. romney who do you think is going to win. why. because of mitt romney he doesn't appeal there like either and you don't like either one or. you think he's going to end the thing you know are going to run a good job for you guys republican so i don't republicans sure you're going to vote for romney. no choice no matter what the conventions do or don't do the bottom line is the media is going to try to make them seem really really important so grab your popcorn and the media circus it's just about to start.
