five am in moscow good to have you with us here on r t our top story a former allah says he won't hesitate to shut down bolivia's embassy in washington or close the u.s. embassy in la paz this is leaders of south american states meet in bolivia to discuss the e.u.'s decision to ground and reportedly search moralism jet over rumors that whistleblower edward snowden could be aboard almost the entire continent rallying in support of bolivia artie's alexei explains things are not looking so good for the diplomats european diplomats accredited in that american country some of them may actually be expelled in particular those working in believe the. we will clearly examine and if it's necessary we will close the u.s. embassy in bolivia we do not need the american embassy we don't need their cooperation or diplomatic relations. well they conspire against us from within our country and
9:02 pm
from the outside my hand won't shake to close the u.s. embassy we've got dignity we've got sovereignty with the u.s. we're better politically and democratically without the i.m.f. and world bank we're better economically so we do not need them following this nightmare flight of everywhere as through europe last night we've seen an unprecedented solidarity from all that american countries on the matter they've all been very critical of what happened with the believing president now the president of argentina kristie that occasional said that this was the humiliation of the entire south american continent a joint statement coming from the colombian government stated that the airspace denial is an act of aggression and last but not least the president of venezuela nicolas maduro said this was a dangerous disproportionate and unacceptable aggression. but europe is the main victim of america's economic policies europe is the main victim of america's
9:03 pm
espionage and yet it's precisely europe that's insulted one of the presidents of south america it's unprecedented what the spanish government is done are we latin american citizens your slaves the slaves of that elite that kneels down before the c.i. a before the u.s. and no it's ridiculous we've also received a reaction coming from the russian foreign ministry which was also far from have happy about how things pan out for the bolivian president susie because somebody out there you are at peace with it is a shame due to the failure of european states to give permission to the aircraft of the bolivian president to fly through their airspace and its forced landing of this special flight in vienna the following should be noted the activities of france spain and portugal could hardly be regarded as friendly towards we live here as well as russia from where president morales was traveling after his visit to.
9:04 pm
moreover the refusal to grant the right to fly the aircraft could have endangered the safety of the passengers including the head of a sovereign state well europe received the lion's share of criticism for their actions in regards to the bolivian president with some latin american officials saying that despite europe is criticizing what edward snowden has actually revealed still it acted as a colony of washington but of course the united states have also been criticized on this matter because of reports that they may have had a hand in this particular incident in fact the united states never made secret that they contacted countries in europe about snowden possibly traveling through their territory and that she should be handed over to the united states authorities for charges and to trial so this story is definitely far from over and while edward snowden remains at moscow's sheremetyevo airport definitely will be seeing more twists and turns to this rather crazy story dave lindorff an editor of an online
9:05 pm
news site says the way e.u. countries switch from being angry at the u.s. over the surveillance program to taking measures to prevent snowden from possibly lending in their country is astonishing. it's quite astonishing to me to see how the leaders in europe germany and france and several other countries spoke out angrily at finding out that they were being spied on that their embassies were being spied on in washington that the e.u. off system cells in europe were being spied on and then all of a sudden they all flat out said first of all they would not grant asylum to snowden who led them to know all that and then they keep have been on this flight that they thought was carrying snowden i think what was happening was the u.s. probably told them about a plane that had snowden on it and didn't bother to tell them that it was a presidential flight it was an atrocious violation of diplomatic immunity to go after a presidential airplane and the truth is that president morales had every right to
9:06 pm
carry snowden if he wanted to know that would not be been grounds to have brought him down. the french interior minister says of snowden applied for diplomatic shelter in his country there be almost no chance he'd get it this after the whistleblowers revelations of the u.s. spying on its european allies that sparked a wave of fury across the block including in paris is artesian riff an ocean of reports what we see is actually a curious evolution of france's position over america's spying activities from an extreme outrage to an even more extreme tolerance and even support we all remember that france has become furious after it was revealed that america's intelligence services had been more natori in high ranking french and european union officials even abroad and also at home and then the angry at france's president has demanded washington to stop spying immediately and has even threatened to reconsider economic partnership with america and delay the talks over an ambitious
9:07 pm
project with america over the world's largest free trade zone america france and european countries have been working on for years to work. we cannot fix this kind of behavior between partners and allies but we are immediately stopped because they can be no negotiations or transactions in all areas until we have obtained these guarantees for from. all of the european union or sexual but what we saw next has actually indicated a radical change in the country's position the european union countries including france have first agreed that the talks over the free trade zone should go on then later france has not allowed believe this president's jad to enter its aspirates because an undesirable person adverse norden could also be on board the same plane and that's allegedly following america's request to do so so why we see this change in the position of france people here on the ground are saying that that's been an
9:08 pm
act of populism for from french president francois hollande his ratings are among the lawyers in the history of his presidency and of. was he planned to gain some points by saying exactly what his people what his electorate wanted he to say that only proves that france has not been able to go beyond words and its accuse a shoes of america's behavior and will not actually openly spoil its relations with washington and actually instead of gaining some popularity here on the ground a french president has in the opposite end the public people say they are shamed with this it paul crecy from their leader latin american leaders have joined in with bolivia's anger many echoing president morales outrage while speaking at the latin american nations summit here's what some of them said the argentinean president said it's strange that morales plane was diverted by those usually speaking of upholding human rights the president of venezuela declared this

a violation against the entire continent ecuador's leader said the u.s. wants to take away other nations civil liberties or commenting on europe's role in the scandal robert oulds chair of the bridge group says now europe is being colonized by u.s. policy. used not really independent in terms of its own foreign policy european union follows what america does it really does seem to accept american foreign policy goals rightly or wrongly but that's not an independent voice any but i and other countries within the european union under the common fold and security policy so really it does mean that the cherished principle of a nation state having its own phone policy is undermined and that then does leave the country to be be a colony of greater political power which of course moms country to democratic legitimacy. as the us has been our scandal grows ecuador of the details on surveillance of its london embassy the country's foreign minister is shown images

aftermath of edward snowden's revelations about america's. a shock to those living in the united states and those living around the world another story the fourth aims to offer to restore the fourth bill of rights which protects us citizens from on the lawful search and seizures the purpose of this rally organizers say is to spread awareness and spur a political action against unconstitutional spying by the u.s. government press freedom not advocates that we spoke with say that these protests are crucial because mainstream media is not adequately covering the n.s.a. leaks and their importance to everyday citizens i believe that the fourth amendment is being breached by only government but by the police with search and seizure with the n.s.a. leaks and everything has been coming out and we i feel lied to i feel you know
9:12 pm
betrayed by a government that's supposed to uphold the constitution even though they say that there's laws that make everything they do legal it seems like legal gymnastics to me i voted for obama twice i donated twice but i'm tired of the expansion of these programs that seem to violate our rights and focus more on keeping us safe in the name of fear it really frighten me that the director of national intelligence lied to congress and i haven't really been any repercussions he issued a written apology but people have lost their jobs over less and it seems like he really nice and as i we are living in the midst of the of the largest. you know on unreasonable search and seizure system we've ever seen in the history of mankind is completely suspicion less search and seizure of our information and that people should be infuriated that this crowd has marched more than kilometers down manhattan with a movie here at federal hall where the first congress passed the bill of rights in addition to this event more than five hundred thousand people have signed an online

petition stop watching dot us demanding full disk. those are ball and essay programs now although this rally may be over those participating in it say that their campaign is just getting ready for me our marine up for tonight march. tom kolo who well organized the rally york says there may be government surveillance happening but it should happen within a legal framework it is necessary for surveillance to occur however the problem with the way that it's being done now is that it is only unconstitutional and i would say that many will feel that way the fourth amendment says the government can search and seize any information without a harm and although warrants can be issued through the eyes of amendments act they're usually done after the fact after the search has been done and they've had a almost one hundred percent approval rate. swarms after the fact we

rest of it which is a military coup now as we zoom into the crowd to see that they are you sorry they constitute you what ensures they're waving the egyptian flag they sing in patriotic songs every so often they lift fireworks in the sky and they keep aiming these green and laser beams of all the buildings around at a time what happened to met a mustache government that they're watching and watched for good but these are not being repeated up egypt you need to read out of the a very divided society and bearing the brunt of this new interim military is just and for most of the muslim brotherhood there have been some we rented everest to shoot the brotherhood members and amongst those who have been arrested on the ability to the muslim brotherhood and the current supreme guide and his deputy we understand that many probably ended up to have it up to change the generosity to

order these are it is interesting enough to have half it by president morsi after the revolution back in two thousand and eleven he was part of mubarak's team now earlier on thursday an interim president was sworn in at lehman so if he is the head of the country's constitutional court it's just a position that he had for only two days and in that swearing in ceremony he said that he was going to pay homage to the chance to have the adoption of the constitution and the bill in terms of who will be the new prime minister of this interim government it does seem as if i have it all fired is the favorite and the dead heat is the former head of the international atomic energy agency to indicate that it is a position that is willing to take refuge in terrorists as well as army but there are critics to do say that if indeed people try to make prime minister of the end that the puppet for the. i said states the toughest where is when we have to put to what is going on in the race to egypt because a gain this is

9:25 pm
military information and what he found was that drone strikes were ten times more deadly to civilians than traditional manned aircraft now these findings seem to be at odds with what we've heard from government leaders back in may president obama touted the benefits of drone warfare as i've already said even small special operations carry enormous risks. conventional airpower missiles are far less precise than brooch. and there are likely to cause more civilian casualties and more local leverage. other high level government leaders have claimed the benefits of drones long before president obama addressed the issue of civilian casualties in drone warfare here's john brennan back in april of two thousand and twelve at the time he was an assistant to the president for national security and counterterrorism we conduct targeted strikes because they are necessary to mitigate actual ongoing threat to stop plots prevent
9:26 pm
future attacks and to save american lives but quantifiable data are proving this has been scarce due to the secrecy of the drone program exact figures of drone strikes were not disclosed in the latest study because that information is classified but it calls into question just how much more precise drones really are compared to man their planes the researchers that conducted this study have an idea they told the guardian quote these findings show us that it's not about the technology it's about how the technology is used drone darn magically better at avoiding civilians than fighter jets when pilots flying jets were given clear directives in training on civilian protection they were able to lower civilian casualty rates also important to note the latest study only takes into account civilian deaths in afghanistan and places like yemen and pakistan it's harder to
9:27 pm
obtain figures on the number of deaths because the only way to get data is from the drones themselves so as the drone debate comes into that the national spotlight this study points out that the benefits of drone technology and training of drone pilots should be included in that debate in washington liz wall r.t. . and that's the hours news for all of our u.s. viewers have a very very special independence day heist coming up next stay with us. well. it's technology innovations all the least of elements from around russia we. covered. this is not a surprise to me that we've got problems in guantanamo during a time of budget cuts we spend one hundred and fifty million dollars each year to
