he received a video recorded by will supply would you believe this song is coming to hold up in ecuador london embassy the video was made before his internet access was cut off. you're going to freak out a little bit because just. out of all the most wall of color about as a result chief. he went as far as saying that water needs to be completely reformed after that decision it's a blow to clean sport which you know is surprising because how would you expect the country to purify its sport if you're saying that its agency which is destiny which is tasked to purify that's a board should not be operational again what acknowledges the decision that it made was a hard one but it made the decision and now the hard work begins that's a good news tentatively then for risotto what about the sports side of things international expectoration the russian athletes themselves what's next for them you know i would say people who are criticizing why they're heavily now are wrong and people who are celebrating this on this side are wrong as well it's not about
3:01 pm
a win it's not a last minute goal that russia scored to win the game it's a chance that wada gave to the russian anti-doping agency to have pure clean sport in the country this would change nothing for those athletes who have been accused of doping are serving their bans this is all about clean athletes the door is not shut open for them it's only they've been given the chance to open that door into the sport because one of the main conditions of the international association of athletics federations to reinstate the russian athletes was that it should be operational meaning that you know athletes have to be checked for doping in order to be clean and in order to be participating international competitions flying the russian flag so essentially this happened now but a lot of work is ahead and make no mistake about it now risotto will be heavily scrutinized and will be heavily checked by water so it's definitely a long road ahead let's take you through some of the reaction the deputy head of russia's anti doping agency says a lot of effort being put in to get. back into compliance the blood. it's been
3:02 pm
a lot of work this saga has lasted for almost three years a lot of things have been done the russian anti-doping agency now has a completely me team the russian anti-doping agency now has a completely new team it's been hard to work for russia where it's a mystery with us as well as wild out there provided international experts to rebuild the capability of russia's anti-doping agency and from my viewpoint it's a well earned a victory and it's not a victory of just one and it's legal it is the logical result of the hard work of those involved and the reinstatement of result of that i mean this is a turning point in this whole story and i.o.c. and good will help the russian blitz to get back to. the championships and seemed. to celebrate a lot of restructuring in result that has been made and all the points that. request that. is what makes this decision very important and
3:03 pm
shows that there is a willingness to change soon and i was seeing this is what. the british press is above so over the prime minister and an explosive leaked memo the unconfirmed dossier originally published by the telegraph newspaper but only reveals plans afoot by teresa mayes conservative party to oust her but also list possible successors has got more on that big question as to who comes next that appears to be the question that the conservative party is mulling over privately and rather actively on their whatsapp conversations that seems to be where all the political processing takes place nowadays and the list has been leaked to the press and it goes through all the potential candidates to succeed to reason may and their chances i believe we can go through some of the candidates now let's take a look at the first ones boris johnson. bookies fruit after
3:04 pm
a jury could reach morgue but the front runner never wins that's really interesting because as you heard boris johnson is the bookmakers favorite but he's controversial within the party but he's got sort of this strange leeson ceaseless. heal but as you saw there they're saying the favorite never wins so let's take a look at the next person on the list jump it once it trying to recover from referendum position and well the current home secretary now of course is sajid javid does the post that to reason may have for six years before she became prime minister so it is seen as a doorway to the premiership he's young he's made some welcome changes in the home office he's kind of emerged as a real possibility to succeed although he has one thing going against him and that is that he is a lever that someone who voted to remain but is now committed to leaving
3:05 pm
which doesn't sometimes doesn't convince the hardcore leavers so let's go to the next politician that is the current foreign secretary take a look at what the list said about him jeremy hunt course near the front of the park coming up on the roof so that's the current foreign secretary but he was formally the health secretary and he's seen as a bit of a political survivor despite the fact that he presided over the junior doctors scandal here so he's not likely to have many fans amongst the medical profession but as the list goes on to point out he is a real dark horse in this potential race to succeed to reason may and then last but not least we have the current defense secretary take a look at what the list says about him. in full campaign mode but very reliant on controlling her own departure point yet given williamson is very much
3:06 pm
treasonous favorite. but the likelihood of her having a say in who succeed to succeed isn't seen as very big to me i have to say this all reads a bit like the burn book from the movie mean girls but the list is important because it appears to confirm that regardless of the mechanics of it and how it happens britain is leaving the e.u. in march twenty nineteen and it appears that once this quite frankly thankless task is over once the poison chalice of briggs it can at least be pushed a little bit to the side the party is going to want a fresh face to take it forward now downing street in the conservative party never normally comment on leaks we've approached them about it we've asked them about it downing street have said asked the conservative party the conservative party have said speak to downing street about it so it doesn't look like there's much designed to talk about it and i think the list pretty much speaks for itself. the french

court has ordered far right leader marine le pen to undergo a psychiatric evaluation it's connected to twitter posts that she made three years ago. we showed victims of islamic states more details from our previous correspondent. well those photos were published towards the end of two thousand and fifteen just weeks after the paris attacks in the november of that year and it came of criticism from a t.v. journalist who tried to say that le pen's party which was then called the national front was essentially the same thing as the terror group isis also known as fronts she tweeted pictures along with a statement saying this is trying to distance her party away from that group well since her immunity as an m.e.p. was lifted this year she is now facing charges of circulating violent messages that could incite terrorism or. the harm dignity and as
3:08 pm
a result of this ongoing investigation the court has ordered her to have psychiatric assessment to see if she can understand remarks and respond to questions she's firas as are many people on twitter. we learned that justice is ordering a psychiatric examination of marine le pen for tweets targeting isis and after that we're giving lessons on democracy to poland and hungary subject political rivals to psychiatric treatment that's more like brushing your attorney orders a psychologist for marine le pen i have no words solidarity with her and the french who love freedom a judge orders a psychiatric assessment of marine le pen i thought it was fake it's incredible psychiatric zation of political opponents is an old communist practiced practiced in the u.s.s.r. until the one nine hundred seventy s. well during the panel has said that she will refuse point blank to go along to that
3:09 pm
court mandated psychiatric assessment and she's also suggested that they could be some political motivations for that so called that assessment because let's not forget we are leading up to the european parliament in twenty nineteen with parties like the national rally are hoping to make big gains but of course if she is found guilty of all of that offense which is circulating violent messages that incite terrorism or seriously harming human dignity then she could face three years in jail up to three years in jail and a fine of seventy five thousand euros this is deemed as a potentially very serious offense here in france. the videos come to light which is the last to have been produced by wiki leaks founder julian assange before his internet access was cut off in march by the ecuadorian embassy in london where he's been holed up since twenty twelve the video has been released by the world ethical data forum and in it a sound comes a range of topics from the future of artificial intelligence to modern cyber threat
3:10 pm
. you're going to freak out a little bit because yes i'm bringing in the aliens into this part of the talk all the sub achievements are in some sense hypocritical and rely on. keeping a different interior world to exterior presentation i don't think it's really possible for when a zation is to come up with borders. that are predictable and are unstable enough to eliminate conflict therefore there will be more conflict something very unstable about technologically advanced civilization that means it doesn't go on for long the most human was have come about as a result of lies and that seems absolutely clear in democracy i'm a fan of the idea of intelligence agencies because it has the word intelligence in it to limit the notion that there's a place that powerful people can hide from or skilled people can hide from this phenomenon and that's the way to get. all those people who have an ability to make
3:11 pm
a difference to make a difference julian assange has entered the embassy building to avoid extradition to sweden where he was accused of right the u.n. panel led to describe the situation as arbitrary detention twenty seventeen the rape allegations against the songs were suspended but he still faces arrest if he leaves the embassy for breaching his bail conditions i could have cut his internet off back in march saying a song has jeopardizing their international relations we spoke to the whistleblowers lawyer about his living conditions and the status of his asylum case . we have been making a number of appeals both to the british government through the ecuadorian government and more broadly about his health situation he has been inside a building for the past six years without access to sunlight or out so outdoor area to exercise his health is deteriorating we're worried about permanent impact on his health as a result of the situation if he was in prison he would being required to have an
3:12 pm
hour outside every day that is a un standard he's not had that he's had a number of health conditions including a shoulder which is an incredible pain he needs an m.r.i. that is not the sort of thing that you can bring into the embassy there's been an appeal by doctors to the british medical association appealing to them to allow him the health care that he needs and the british government continues to say he will not get that kind of medical treatment he must come out of the embassy and in order to get that medical treatment he must give up the right to asylum that he's being granted by the ecuadorian government. he has spent more than six years. under some forms of restriction on his liberty as a result of that investigation that has now been dropped he has already spent far more time in prison and he would ever have been required to for having. entered the embassy conditions we say he has served time and he has he had a reasonable excuse and that this is this is a minor offense the fact the real issue is and has always been the concern about us
3:13 pm
extradition we are concerned about the prospect that he may well be sent to the u.s. and what treatment he would suffer once he's there we know that chelsea manning the alleged source of wiki leaks material was subjected to inhuman degrading treatment according to the un special rapporteur and we're concerned that julian if he is sent to the united states will face a long and drawn out process and it will take many years before we are able to make the arguments that we know should and should win which is the constitutional argument that he has the right to the first amendment for his publishing activities no publisher should have to face this join us on has always said that he's happy to face british justice but not at the risk of facing american injustice we entirely accept that he can and will face any process within the u.k. related to potential bio proceedings but he should be able to do that with the assurance that he will not be extradited to the united states to face prosecution for having exercise internationally protect the rights of free speech to publish
3:14 pm
material in the public interest. the much touted to promote program was supposed to be the biggest women support initiative in afghanistan but according to a report by a washington watchdog it's been an utter failure hundreds of millions of dollars of u.s. taxpayer money was spent the goals were huge but in reality only a few dozen women were helped. i mean. since two thousand and one the door has been reopened for afghan women they joined the police the army and entered politics and together we can help women and girls across afghanistan develop their talents raise their voices and strengthen their communities and their country and.
3:15 pm
then i didn't know if this money was spent properly there would have been changes in women's lives but we don't know how they spend it or who they gave it to. they haven't done so much for afghan women there's an exhibit in hell's in india a man is representing afghan women this program in afghanistan is for women and we still get replaced my marriage why don't we have the capacity. for. the person we request of usa to support us by providing a smush scenery incompetently going to modernize they had to have section their response was negative this said they were huge to train as i have ten years experience i don't need the training i need the machinery. plus i thought until you i filled in forms last year and again six months ago they
3:16 pm
told us that they would let us know but there was no response even when we called them they never called back hundreds of thousands of women across afghanistan ready to work ready to work. you know in this hour the u.s. has imposed new sanctions on china for buying russian fighter jets and surface to air missiles washington also said it would continue to sanction countries that cooperate with russia's defense industry correspondent kind of opens across a sport where they can get more sanctions from the u.s. then what can you tell us. well we've seen china slapped with new sanctions in response to their purchase of su thirty five fighter jets from russia as well as the ass four hundred missile system basically the usa says it doesn't want anyone cooperating with russia this is what heather nauert of the u.s.
3:17 pm
state department said about it we will continue to vigorously implement through america's adversaries through sanctions act and urge all countries to curtail relationships with russians defense and intelligence sectors both of which to mine activities world right now it's important to point out that china is not the only country in the world to purchase russian military hardware in fact the very system that was named in these sections in these new sanctions the s four hundred air defense missile system is used by a nato member turkey let's take a listen to what the u.s. state department had to say about turkey's purchase of s. four hundred missile systems you know when it goes against our policy to have a nato ally such as turkey use an ass four hundred system part of the problem with that it is that it is not in iraq robel with other nato systems and so we are against the having some of our partners and allies around the world potentially
3:18 pm
purchase us for hundreds it would trigger carrots is not going to get into that but we have made very clear what could trigger sanctions for other countries and entities around the world. now it's also important to point out that india is in the final stages of purchasing the ass four hundred missile system themselves saudi arabia is also discussing purchased as a bit as arc atar and iraq now it's interesting that that these sanctions were imposed on china when a number of countries around the world have purchased the exact same as four hundred missile system it would appear to some observers that these sanctions are being enforced selectively. ok kind of open in new york thanks for that update. now it's not the only where that put in the count among the pigeons germany's approved arms too with saudi arabia despite a previous commitment not to export military hardware to those fighting in the

3:20 pm
to fight it gives terrorism. to fight against international terrorism just accept it quote for instance in syria by message saudi financial and military support for isis and other extremist islamist hit shoppers so this is absolutely ridiculous. beijing is accusing sweden of mistreating chinese tourists and even of violating their human rights it's after our erupted between staff of the stockholm hostel and a chinese family over check in time. this is a kid this is the kid. this is. just. see well yes he was here. just. under
