very good evening just join is very good to have you company it's eleven pm wednesday night here in moscow money was kevin first britain's confirmed is holding up to ninety afghan nationals in its combat student base in afghanistan without charge it's thought some of spent more than a year in detention the ministry of defense says it will be ready to hand over the prisoners to local authorities once all the quote legal obligations are met but lawyers still say the u.k. is out to them lawfully drawing a parallel with america's notorious mowbray so first got the story tonight for r.t. he kato is here acting on behalf of some of these detainees speaking out they've launched a legal action by saying that some of these men have been held for up to fourteen months all of that and that this amounts to a little detention now the rules dictate the british forces that are only allowed to hold detainees the ninety six hours unless there are exceptional circumstances the last november we still the defense secretary. changed the rules that i hope the transfer of detainees captured by british street to our. after there were concerns

that they would be abused or tortured british troops are now looking for a safe harbor wait for transfer of these detainees the safety of british troops also comes into this these men who are being held some of the notorious some of them have links to involvement with i e d's so i think really making the point here that these are dangerous individuals that could present a direct threat cheaper to streets if you listen to what the lawyers have come out and say they've used that word secret facility and they've actually said that it's reminiscent of the public's awakening that there was a ground based the u.k. law is has been very clear here that parliamentarians did not know about this that this was not known to the british public so you've got the defense secretary on the one side saying you know this is very different. in a number of very important respects predominantly that this is the detainees

protection and also that this wasn't a secret that people have known about and this is being spoken about and you've got the u.k. lawyer saying you know hang on a second absolutely not this was a secret facility and this is the public awakening now rosa colleagues a lawyer of one of the detainees she said she spread mongst trying to get a hold of her client who's been detained without charge for close to a year now. my client is a young man these approximately about twenty years old he is married with one daughter he's afghan and that's not going to stand we have been instructed by his brother and by his uncle because he was captured and chained by the brits in august last year two thousand and twelve and today he is still going to take him by them so nine months on his uncle and brother asked us to find out why he was being detained and to try to get access to him so we can provide him with legal advice so far we have still not been able to gain access to our client and we still

haven't been able to speak to him we've written to the government we've asked them to make sure we can speak to him and so far they've refused because of their refusal we have to apply to the u.k. courts here and ask the court to order the u.k. government to give us access we can see no lawful basis on which this our client is being detained by the u.k. government and the u.k. authorities in afghanistan and that's why we have made an application to the court the hague the a school course application asking him to for him to be brought to court and to be released and explain on what basis the u.k. government is stating that they can continue to detain him he has had no charges given against him as far as we're aware and as i said we've had no access to him the tool. approach british labor party and people regard he gave me his thoughts on why it's taken you thought he such a long time to transfer the prisoners to the local authorities. people who have

been found do have been detained by the british authorities and are believed to have been active in gage ment's or conspiracy against british personnel they would normally be handed over because they couldn't be because they might be tortured in that situation what's been happening is that the ministry of defense has been working closely to put in place in afghanistan appropriate procedures and oversight of some of the court facilities there so that these men can be released into afghan detention apparently yes it's taken quite a long time to put this in place and clearly that's a very disturbing position to be in nobody wants these men to be being held in this way they should be tried and processed if they if they're found innocent they should be released and if they're found guilty obviously they should be detained or given whatever the appropriate sentence would be and international affairs commentator johnson still from britain's guardian newspaper says there are similarities between guantanamo and camp bastion in that very little is known about

what's going on there. i think that is a disgrace and it's also very by the united nations which has been able to probe in all the afghan police stations and detention facilities and it's huge there are reports on mishandling of the attorneys that the un does not have access to the british or indeed american to turn to the senate is the only outsiders who do the international committee of the red cross and as you know they have a policy of not talking publicly about individual cases so whatever they found quite to themselves were not to themselves they have discussed it with the british government but not to the wider public some lawyers have compared camp bastion to guantanamo are they the same or rather fundamentally different as you see it one similarity is the lack of access to the lawyers to do the the lack of information the indefinite detention whatever the conditions are like even if they're not being tortured by the british they are being held in internal limbo with no access to

lawyers family or anybody how justifiable is that it is not justifiable at all. they ought to be charged or released or to seal with me but earlier on soon we'll tell you how the past masters of secret detention have been tracked themselves that you can see what they've been doing anyone with internet access can see where we are and how the cia's rendition victims have been transferred our correspondent lifts the lid of the shopping. but before that the syrian opposition has split along fresh fault line leading rebel factions inside the conflict zone islam the exiled umbrella group the syrian national coalition for failing to represent the revolution it comes as more countries want to go to lifting the e.u. arms embargo on syria which expires on friday top international officials including the un human rights chief say sending more weapons to the flashpoint will result in further killing in france maintain they will have the right to start arming the

syrian opposition from friday and the civil war is also having cross border repercussions to the rebels are threatening to retaliate against lebanon's hezbollah for intervening in syria on a sad side for some observers region wide violence is now looming. the syrian civil war already spilled out into into lebanon and this is one of the. things that happened this was this is one of the incidents the two the two rockets hit the stronghold of hezbollah. this might be one of the questions. is. also going to take in this way it's not only that the rockets beirut's southern suburbs it's also obvious that as much as tens of rockets have hit the northeastern city off and it's on the other stronghold of those well law in the early killing at least two or three lebanese and one thing so the situation is

getting more tense day after day and it's expected to get more tense than this. two sources here and. they are feel it's real fears that extremists who are fighting alongside with the syrian rebels might tend to do you know car bombs in beirut and this is something that everyone feared maybe in regulation to what's going on. around is hosting its own international conference on syria bringing together facials from around forty countries the stated aim is to broker a diplomatic solution to the conflict professor mohammed randy in toronto be some foreign powers that was scuttling peace efforts by backing the radical rebels. iran from the very beginning was saying that the government the syrian government should reform itself there should be free and fair elections the ryans were the ones who accepted the anon plan the iranians were the ones who also accepted the geneva

talks in the results and the declaration that came from that but it was every time it was the the west and it's in the oil rich dictatorships in this region that are remoting extremism that wrecked the talks so what the iranians are saying basically is that the fighting has and the two sides have to come to some degree an agreement to have. elections free and fair elections with foreign monitors from across the world to make sure that there is no manipulation of the elections the reason why the united states in the europeans don't want this and the saudi regime don't want this is because they're pretty sure that their people will not win free and fair elections and most probably the majority of syrians from all sects and religions a large would probably vote for the current president and that is why the americans and the europeans have gone so far in supporting it groups in this country which ultimately will blow up in their own face i mean the blog that we we will see

blowback from this horrific policy of western regimes britain's being bitten by an angry at quote dog which says westminster trampling on the human rights of whistleblower julius sands will tell you why in just a few minutes. transferring terror suspects to secret prisons was supposed to be a strictly cia only affair but not anymore now you just need to log on to the internet to solve the dark puzzle of its global rendition network thanks to two british universities let's hear a jet ski explains more. written dition revealed from now on you can learn exactly how the cia has been secretly transferring its war on terror detainees across the globe on civic and military aircraft something better known as the rendition program researchers from britain scan university and kingston university have compiled an extensive flights database by going to their indecision project dot gov dot u.k. you can see a detailed graph of more than eleven thousand cia flights performed from two

thousand and one to two thousand and six not all of them have been confirmed to have had detainees on board some of those which are marked in blue are described as dummy flights there are also flights which were labeled as highly suspicious meaning there is no substantial evidence that they were transporting suspected terrorists in certain cases there were website designers have ample proof of detainees travel the full route is described on the map like this one of the suspected al qaeda competent diver who's been locked up in guantanamo for a decade without any charges we can see on the map how he was transported from thailand where he spent eight months in detention after being called to the united arab emirates and then to poland almost a year later he was shifted to guantanamo in that year he spent at the cia black sites in poland by the claims he was water boarded eighty three times but how exactly do the masterminds of this project gather the information and what goals they're trying to pursue we'll find out with one of the masterminds of the project mistruth blakeley from the camp university in england many thanks truth for joining

us here my first question would be how exactly you are gathering information on these flights and where did you find to manage all the data. ok most of the information that we have was already in the public domain but was quite frank mentored so we've worked closely with a number of human rights organizations and human rights investigators to bring all of that information so it comes from freedom of information requests and some of it comes from investigative investigations into particular cases including legal proceedings on behalf of some of that is how. we feel are very heavily on the work of the u.k. need that action charis and reprieve which is represented some of the men who are still held and grandson in my bed without charge or trial. what is the point of all this project what are you trying to achieve and what message are you trying to send out. a main aim was to try and map the global rendition system to try and provide as comprehensive a picture as possible of how many have rendition took place which countries were

involved and how the cia managed to hide individuals in the system as it transported them around the world to hold them in prisons where they could be tortured and interrogated and our purpose therefore is to shed as much light as possible on the system with a view to assisting human rights investigators and human rights lawyers to defend the rights of those people who fit terms of these processes thank you so much mr blakeley this was from kent university now the database currently holds more than eleven thousand flights information about them and the masterminds of the website are asking anyone who has any valuable information on these flights to contribute. during the surge was only supposed to stay and i could always love that embassy for a few months book no nearly a year on the country's foreign ministers accusing the u.k. of abusing their sergers human rights because it will guarantee you safe passage to asylum in ecuador they were leaks founder faces sex crime charges in sweden but fears it's a cover to extradite him to america support journalist smith says london will be

phrased things by acquittals words. i'm afraid i don't think they will be not i'm very sad about that because i think there's a miscarriage of justice going on the british government wishes to please the americans in this mess and i think that will be a primary requirement and none the americans i don't think will be very pleased if mr tsongas allowed to go to ecuador as he should be about what's happened unbelievably the british guy who just spent about four hof million pounds with policemen outside the ecuadorian embassy i think we forget you know it could all just have objects a message relationship with person and i think we should we should respect that wish to give songs political asylum you know there are lots of people have lots of views on mr songs i know him extremely well he stayed with me for thirteen months in my house and he said you know to quit he's not going to give up on this i'm not completely sure and you know come

a web site you can try to do sanjay's trouble journey from a straight home down to his asylum center at the ecuadorian embassy also there to remind you you know what shall we episode that we can expand its own talk show which i had here on on t.v. while he was under house arrest in britain. coming up they came to took off and now they have dogs the next addition to the international space station set now in old but after a successful launch from the cars accept the go but details coming up. played in a family jazz band together. like jacked up playing together. most of them from music to tara. twenty five years old the question still remains. just bad hi jack.

mission. critical free storage free. free. free. free. food free. for your media project free media john darche dot com. are all again europe's facing dire warnings of its soaring youth unemployment rate at a meeting in paris on tuesday a labor of finance ministers from the largest e.u. nations said that if no action is taken now an entire generation could fall by the

wayside and say it pounds out of the maps not good reading seven point five million people under the age of twenty five no out of work across the block the figures particular alarming in the south of europe youth unemployment in greece in spain now over fifty percent the president of france meantime with more than a quarter of youngsters are jobless has warned that the situation is becoming dangerous as he put it francois spoke of anger and hatred brewing among young people while the government's failed to improve their prospects let's go live to proselyte now young and overhauls there is editor in chief of the belgian business magazine trends are you know it would be a problem hearing it just now hopefully you can hear me here leaders who want to spend six billion euros on the youth unemployment is that going to be enough do you think and if so where how should it be spent. well i think it completely not enough and more than that it's not with throwing money at this this all the soft it's a question of first of all getting the european and more specifically the euro area

economy going again first of all and secondly and at least as important to change the structure of the labor market which especially like you already said in salary you're basically protective for people who have a job but the consequences of that is that those who come into the labor market obviously are most of the time you don't see both as a very hard time finding a job and that's characteristic of the labor market. that economic situation in countries like greece spain and italy and you have to use an unemployment that is really going through the sky in greece any spain six i'll send young people are out of a job that just incredible yet so friedrich i mean you know when you look at the let's call it the family of europe is the case of a friend didn't need is a friend in data like a friend that needs a whole part of trouble i'm thinking germany and austria have got the lowest rate

of unemployed use it eight percent is germany really going to be willing to splash out on something that's not specifically it's a problem. well if you're just throwing money around at the we've got already a lot of signs on the germans that's not the way they look at this problem what they are trying to stimulate now and we try to cross the something that should happen we did a monetary union that labor mobility has to resist and german shown themselves to be ready to accept a lot of people from countries like spain and portugal so that they can move from a high unemployment area to open employment area like for example in germany but of course one of the aspects of that kind of move with leaders a lot of people with higher education is how you can get full value would move from countries like spain portugal these two countries like germany and for the

countries where these people are coming from. that would of growth be also a loss of things also this is really a very delicate situation but just throwing money at it that's one of the main proponents will certainly not help whether it's six billion or sixty billion you know and is it a naive question thinking about the hot spots thinking about the protests we've seen flaring up in greece and italy and spain. is it naive to ask why has it been allowed to fester like this could something have been done about it soon or. certainly like i already said if it's one of the shortcomings of the working of the labor market earlier we would certainly not have arrived at this kind of youth unemployment but what makes all of the sions delayed action or what made politicians delay action is the fact that the family structures in these southern european countries have. softened the effects of this unemployment there is

a famous term for this in spain where people talk of hotel mama which means that younger people are. going back to their homes with their mothers to their father and that means that their quality of life remains more or less intact or to some degree in fact and that has prevented this situation from turning into or socially really very explosive situation but now of course we're right in a situation where the capability of the elderly people or of the parents of these young people to pay back into their homes their unemployed. sons and daughters is of course diminishing also and so i was in greece recently and people really do fear that we are approaching now the limit of what the family structure absorb in terms of unemployment. you know and i'm really glad we got the

connection to you over and over well there editor in chief a trade surplus news magazine thank you so much. well meantime talking of unemployed million of britain's jobless a young people even those who've graduated from college is struggling to get the most basic employment. well i've been trying for a while now pretty much every day just humming seabees the rounds going on the computer for a couple of hours a day trying to get anything because i want a job because i want to be able to look you know i'm earning this money on which you know no one does kind of knock me down every time i kind of go and think i really would actually like to do this and i've got this interview and. i got a phone call saying. madonna go and say like some places my c.v. probably hasn't actually been seen if i'm going to get someone for

a job but they know. they're going to give it to me but see jennifer next college paper six months ago she's one of almost a million meets in the u.k. not in employment education or training i kind of always you know be difficult but i didn't really think i would be out of work but still in a bid to combat houston employment the government launched its use contract a one billion pounds scheme to provide new opportunities to eighteen to twenty four year olds but it hasn't helped i know that john and sons shed loads of. applications and you know i know from person experiences lot of what's wrong with me the swell of young people trying and failing to make it on to the job ladder has led to talk of a generation lost to austerity not just in britain but in the whole of recession hit europe the president of the year being central bank has even called on governments to tackle the issues before it leads to social unrest youth

unemployment is one of the biggest problems facing britain right now we have nine hundred fifty thousand young people unemployed just one in five you imagine applying for jobs every day and getting rejected what that does to your self-esteem feel confident. young people who. forked out thousands of pounds for a degree and finding the reality of recession hit britain a bitter pill to swallow i feel but the fact that i have gone to university and i've gained an internship so i shouldn't really be in this position i live dot i've done everything in the society has told me to. i'm still finding it very difficult to find employment i do feel like i'm kind of stuck at the moment is not really much i can do you have for them i've already tried our jenna and others in britain's lost generation the outlook has never been so on satin polyploid
