edward snowden leaves the transit of a moscow airport after. eight years it's a decision. in washington prompting fresh threats of possible cancellation of the top level. and that's a snowden's latest published leaks reveal the u.s. secretly poured millions into the biggest british spy agency. dependence on washington. and sexual assaults by prison guards a claim to be a part of the routine by the last of british inmates at the guantanamo bay detention camp carries out a special investigation. very

warm welcome to you from all of us here on seymour. the worldwide headlines of life in the russian capital u.s. it was a blow edward snowden is free to live and work in russia for up to twelve months without fearing extradition and the former n.s.a. contractor has been granted temporary asylum here in the country i mean he finally left the moscow airport where he's been trapped in transit limbo since june got pissed off it's been following developments in the snowden saga joining us live from the program you go to good morning to you do explain if you would for a moment what exactly does it mean temporary asylum and any chance we know where he is right now. well now that snowden's man is still left now that snowden has managed to leave or rather the transit zone off limits of the airport where he spends around five weeks this is a new chapter in his story if before we at least approximately knew where he was

somewhere on the premises of that travelers all of that exact airport now is location is even more secret due to c.t. views it's impossible to just read your book due to the fact that he's the most wanted person on planet earth to do he'll be concerned about the issue of security that includes questions of safety in the place where he's going to loop that's all up to him. as usual we will consult and advise him but on other issues it's up to him. as for meeting the press yes he's ready to meet the russian media but you need to understand that he still needs some time to adapt to russian reality and. the snowden released a statement in which he held the moscow's decision to grant him. asylum in russia and also outlined that the whole procedure was done in full compliance with both russian and international legislature legislation also heard from julian a son it was said he thinks whistle blowing has become

a tendency and that soon others will follow snowden's example by so you go to years temporary asylum here in russia for the n.s.a. whistleblower edward snowden i suppose what's curious is what are his next steps going to be i mean it is easy just to walk down the street and go to a local russian restaurant and have some food or is he stuck somewhere. well snowden did agreed to the conditions voiced by president putin on which he could stay in russia and that is to stop harming the image of washington and concerning his latest revelations well he actually passed all this information to journalists and the documents before actually arriving to the transit zone of the meats of our airport for only his although. we know that snowden is looking at finding a job here in russia we don't know exactly which job but there is already a proposal for him from russia's largest social network called back to its

management said that they could offer him a job a place as an eighty specialist in charge of the privacy and security of users all right r.t. if you're going to spin off the thank you so much thank you well in the meantime i russia's granting of temporary asylum to edward snowden has infuriated washington and the white house hinted that september's summit between president obama and vladimir putin may now be canceled and that some republican senators call for a major rethink of relations between the two countries. can now gauge is the u.s. response. together with edward snowden russia has now become the object of washington's wrath fiery remarks are coming from congress senator lindsey graham says americans in washington should consider this a game changer in our relationship with russia senator john mccain goes it's a slap in the face of all americans we cannot allow today's action by pointing to stand without serious repr cautions the white house touched upon some of those are

precautions saying moscow's decision on snowden undermines the growing cooperation between russian and u.s. security services the white house spokesperson said washington is quoted extremely disappointed with moscow also this mr snowden is not a whistleblower he is accused of leaking classified information and has been charged with three fairly villany counts and he should be returned to the united states polls show the majority of americans actually disagree with the white house on whether or not mr snowden is a whistle blower they think it is but it seems the white house and some lawmakers are only happy to focus on russia because it takes the thunder away from the conversation about the surveillance state but the conversation is happening as much as the government would want it they can't put a lid on it new laws are being proposed to rein in n.s.a. surveillance last week congress killed one such bill by only twelve votes lawmakers have indicated there will be more such proposals in response to snowden's revelations senior intelligence officials have testified in congress releasing

classified documents but they wouldn't be having that conversation if it weren't for snowden from snowden we first learned about the prism program a system the n.s.a. uses to gain access to the private communications of users of nine popular internet services the government said the n.s.a. does that only with a warrant from the feis a court those are secret court orders snowden said the fisa court merely rubber sems such warrants and he revealed one such secret court order for a telecommunications company to hand over its clients data in bulk the government has acknowledged all collection of communications but said no. can look at the content of those communications without a warrant snowden said yes they can this week the guardian relying on the documents that snowden had earlier provided his release details of a program that makes it possible we learned about x. keyscore which allows to search through vast amounts of data collected by other programs having sekret finest his career and his comfortable lifestyle snowden said

he wanted to expose the government's line and hypocrisy when one of the things he revealed that while washington is complaining about china and china all the time on chinese research centers on the chinese university and so on he has also exposed all the country's intelligence services which are quote unquote in bed with the n.s.a. and are essentially doing the same thing like the u.k.'s g.c. . so it's not just civil liberties advocates on this side of the atlantic who are grateful to snowden in washington i'm going to check them well russia on its part says there's no reason why the decision over snowden's asylum should damage relations with the u.s. that's also the view shared by a london based legal expert on xander a curious. the ball in a sense is in the american court that the russian authorities have been extremely careful to do this by the book they've insisted on mr snowden making a proper application he's done it through a lawyer there is

a well founded case here for asylum the u.s. has no legal grounds to object to this now that he is in russia proper i think he the intention will be to apply for full refugee status if the u.s. number less wants to jeopardize its very important relationship with russia because russia has done something which it is legally fully entitle to do that is a decision for the u.s. but many people will i think feel that if the u.s. does that then the u.s. frankly is behaving in a very strange and self destructive way. and snowden's leaks continue to span the atlantic in fact the latest revelations published by the guardian newspaper showed not only was that the british government's communications headquarters spying extensively on u.k. citizens but in fact it was being funded in a large part by washington d c let's now take

a look and see how those intelligence gathering programs worked alternately the. g.c. h.q. pumped large amounts of money into efforts to gather personal data from mobile phones and up locations but ultimately saying that it wanted to be able to quote exploit any phone anywhere any time. volumes of information have been acquired in just the past five years alone the amount of data gathered from the internet and mobile traffic by the intelligence agency has increased by more than seventy times . takes a closer look at america's role in this program the u.s. government has paid at least one hundred million pounds to the u.k. spy agency over the past three years now in return for this money they've got access to and influence over britain's intelligence gathering programs now these were allegedly top secret payments the americans expect a return on their investments in g c h q so g.h.q.

has got to work very hard to meet the n.s.a.'s demands which almost makes it sound as though that the u.k. intelligence agency is working for the n.s.a. i mean for such a prestigious agency these revelations are likely to be extremely damaging one g c h q strategy briefing that the guardian has seen says to quote g c h q must pull its weight and be seen to pull its weight which gives you an impression of the sort of the work ethic in g c h q and the how hard they're trying to please the americans really the guardian seen other documents that we've. that g.c. h.q. is actively pouring money into spying on personal mobile phones and applications and according to the guardian some staff that work for d.c. h.q. have expressed concern about the morales sea and about the ethics behind what it is

they do they are given the level of deception in their work as well apparently a number of employees have been concerned about that now the leaked papers also show that the u.k.'s biggest fear is that the us becomes dissatisfied with the work that d.c. h.q. is doing and as a result will invest less money into the u.k. spy agency which brings us to watch a number of observers are concerned most about in this story which is just how close the relationship between g.c. h.q. and the n.s.a. really is certainly considering the amount of money that's been poured in and just to remind you that it's over one hundred million pounds over the past three years it would seem as though the british side is almost dependent on their american counterparts for his political reporting that now snowden's leaks and the n.s.a.'s sweeping surveillance program also dominated this year's tech conference in las vegas the agency's head trying to defend the much criticized snooping methods over speech wasn't exactly well warmly met by participants artie's web producer andrew

blake was there to attend the event and has more on it. people who touch computers with any sort of degree and anyone who can do something with technology to harness it to make it better to innovate to to invent their fifteen thousand of them they're all here in vegas and they're all looking forward to having an interesting couple of days soon to leave with some new knowledge in the past in christian and different ways of communicating with people over the internet over the phone these are these are topics that have always been discussed at def con but this year in particular given the recent disclosures for met word snowden and what we've learned about the n.s.a. people are especially interested this year and in fact it's for out of the course of the convention there's going to be a panel discussion with the electronic frontier foundation and another with the american civil liberties union where they're going over what exactly is n.s.a. leaks mean you know it's not just civil liberties that are at risk there's all sorts of computer legislation many which are outdated that can provide

a way for hackers to accidentally end up not necessarily on the radar of the federal government the just in jail in general alexander spoke yesterday he was actually booed he was jeered there were obscenity that were yelled in his direction he tried to defend a prison he tried to defend the leaked documents attributed to mr snowden which have really blown the cover of the n.s.a. and explained exactly what many people have thought for decades now i've already spoken to a handful of people this morning at the convention who was one of the first things that they were mentioned was well you know we're here right now because of what the n.s.a. has been doing we need to find ways to make sure that we can still communicate freely but you know these are people who already specialize many of the attendees specialize in encryption specialize in security so if you're not necessarily learning something new here you're at least being able to network with other people who can help kind of bring this community a little bit more closely knit at a time when that's really imperative. for technology seems also to have

i would rather i asked questions for people in positions of power instead of speaking on their behalf and that's why you can find my fellow larry king now right here on r.t. question more. live from moscow i thought he was mia over sushi thanks for joining us today at the last british inmate of the guantanamo bay detention camp his claim that gods sexually assault him during prisons was the revelation comes amid president obama's new push to shut down the camp for the white house is all quote steps stumbling upon a no go from congress i hear it all say we've been carrying out an investigation into the story with a correspondent following this report. shocker aamer the a las

a british detainee at the guantanamo bay prison who's been on hunger strike since january against his on lawful detention the claims that he's being assaulted sometimes sexually during prison search as i am or was arrested in afghanistan in two thousand and one he's been at the prison a for eleven years without having been charged with any offense and he says he that he still faces a daily quote unquote forced cell extractions they flip me over for the search mostly that's just an assault sometimes a sexual assault we call it the get my mask. there's meant to be a board like a wooden stretch and they're meant to roll my own but now they don't have them now they carry me like a sack of potatoes which is really pain. for me this information was revealed in a declassified conversation between elmer and his lawyer in the united states and we spoke to him on r.t. and he told us about his a last conversation with a british detainee

a sexual assault is something that's happening to all the prisoners who come through this it's. going to be talking to a couple more people beginning of next week and these guys unfortunately will be subjected to the same intimidation the sad truth is that means that some of the truisms especially we can do as they are by hunger strikes don't come until they go visit the legal tangles because they're just not willing to undergo this sort of humiliation that's just wrong and under this news comes just weeks after u.k. prime minister david cameron had said that he had raised the case of our with the u.s. president barack obama apple g eight summit over concerns that the u.s. was trying to render armor to saudi arabia we contacted the a british a foreign office and this is what they said we take any allegation of mr armors mistreatment seriously we continue to monitor mr armors health and welfare through liaison with their u.s. counterparts mr obama's case remains a high priority for the u.k.

government and we continue to make clear to the u.s. that we want him released and returned to the u.k. as a matter of urgency stories of inmates at guantanamo have been coming to light especially with attention on that the hunger strike that's been going on inside most of this information revealed through more years of the detainees a one other example for instance is more of who are not us who had described the prison as a quote unquote place without was he said that he had suffered repeated abuse of interrogation techniques including sexual humiliation of water torture as well as sleep deprivation in response to artie's queries at the deputy joint task force public affairs officer at one tunnel cept us this reply. we don't comment on any deity merely gave me through their defense attorneys regardless of how ridiculous and absurd there were occasions might be we also contacted the u.s. state department for their comments on the shocker imus case but we have yet to

hear a reply reporting from london i'm tess are cilia. and are going to hunger strike edges closer to the half year mark t. starts its special coverage and are separating what keeps the inmates in their indefinite limbo i do stay with us for that if you can be on august the sixth. the guantanamo bay detention facility was now over eleven years old the broken presidential promises the congressional sabotage the never ending war on terror all forces and conspired together to keep this prison open but now a hunger strike threatens to tear it all down as this hunger strike near six months party takes a closer look at the prison i just can't because. thanks for joining us here and i see today moscow has expressed outrage over the latest extradition of a russian citizen to the u.s.

from a third country a program exam that upon then was snatched from the dominican republic without moscow's consent or knowledge. joins us live here on the program with more on the case and good morning to you tom what do we know here can you fill us in what we know about case. a spokesperson from the russian foreign ministry says they're trying to stay informed about alexander case on july the twenty six they visited him in prison in the u.s. state of georgia wade being extradited from the dominican republic however they say that in their view this is yet another example of a russian national being extradited from a third country to the u.s. and invest in their view that is unacceptable. and we have very concerned that we are once again faced with the interests of the russian citizens on the use one in the south contrie we consider this practice has become a vicious tendency completely unacceptable we have repeatedly pointed out to the

u.s. that if they have created says with russian citizens they have to send requests to russian law enforcement agencies in agreement with the by late through treaty on the show legally on criminal cases signed in one thousand nine hundred nine. is still not been down. to. plannin was on interpol's highest priority red list for arrest he's wanted for embezzlement through internet banking scams totaling five million dollars he's suspected to be part of a network that rips off banks via the internet however his mother says she's confused about what's happened to him. but. he's interested in computers but mostly he's a person of science you know i can't believe that you wrote a computer program that's what he does he likes to tinker with hardware he develops software but i can't believe what he's accused of that i don't understand why he was arrested i just don't understand not because i'm his mother then i talked to

his friend who invited him to the dominican republic i asked him whether my son was ok for money he said recently he's been borrowing money from me. so tell me what are these other cases are forming this so-called vicious tendency the foreign ministry spokesperson i referred to. there are other cases like this on july the twenty second dimitrios to north was actually died to the u.s. from lithuania for smuggling that night vision goggles from that country in two thousand and eleven constantine yet a shango was sentenced to twenty years in prison in the u.s. for conspiracy to smuggle cocaine there he was extradited there from liberia in may two thousand and ten and in a full two thousand and twelve victor boot was sentenced to twenty five years in prison in the u.s. for conspiracy to kill americans among other things he was extradited there from thailand in november two thousand and ten after
