from. this israel prepares for elections some vying to be prime minister spawn controlled tough palestine platforms. this is r.t. . wiki leaks says that it has obtained a press strategy agreed on by ecuador and the united kingdom in the event wiki leaks founder julian assange is extradited to the u.s. whistleblower was granted asylum in ecuador as embassy in london in two thousand and twelve mr circulating is about to be expelled and potentially hounded by britain over to america according to wiki leaks ecuador will claim broke the terms of his asylum with the u.k. giving assurances that it won't let the u.s. sentence him to death. and that is it exactly the fates that the song is fearing is in store for him if extradited to the u.s. still furious about wiki leaks having released classified material acquittals

foreign minister meanwhile took to twitter to dismiss rumors his country would hand over the whistleblower son just supporters say he's doing crucial work must be protected. but it was the idea it's not possible to mistreat someone this way just because he revealed news that by their beach and powerful people as a publisher he has revealed all kinds of human rights violations war crimes are misinformation needs to get out united states says that they're defending democracy around the world and they're not defending democracy at all the united states is is. trying to silence people of all for the good of. revealing what's happening and julian assange is just so the person who made it possible for those people to be heard so much has changed in ecuador since the science was granted asylum or seven years ago including relations between quito and

washington in the trunk as the story. thank you for the gracious welcome that you have shown to be my wife sharon on our very first visit to ecuador we are huge. relationship between you guys. and what a beautiful video what a beautiful welcome maybe that's the reason the u.s. vice president was pacified enough not to call out names when he brought up the dark times in the u.s. equity or friendship while visiting president lenin moran oh in quito. election our nations did experience ten difficult years where our people always folk loose but our government drifted apart though that was clearly a jab at someone who proudly stood up against america's whip cracking hand while in charge of the small south american nation just think of how rafa korea sheltered julian a songe what a slap in washington's face that was imo though. with given diplomatic asylum to do

in the sun softly exhausting all means want to guarantee that he's not extradited to third countries which could put his life in danger to life of misters sons as driscoll's life sons and switches being dead live under lenin maranoa who was praised by outgoing leader chorale at the election the tide has clearly changed mr carette even ended up calling his successor a traitor absolutely. to the united states is doing. what it is let's look at what he could have meant by that. the first signal joyous could soon be shown the door at the embassy in london was when the american media reported president moran oh had once met donald trump's former campaign boss paul man afford it was claimed mr moran no was trying to negotiate concessions from the u.s. that led to nothing but today it's clear. he's not

a fan of assad yet us bases so you know that too many times mr sanchez violates the cream and we as a real us imperialism hating tough guy rafa carette was known as a staunch ally of that as well as nicholas maduro while for ecuador's current president someone else quite well known to have invited him to receive the affection and support of a people he loved more chrissy. mr chorale was on a mission to rid his country of uncle sam's folks step by step he first for a few thousand and nine and then told all u.s. military attaches to leave the country and two thousand and fourteen only a few years later sam is coming back the governments of ecuador and the united states decided to resume bilateral military cooperation training and assistance to contribute to ecuador's ability to combat shared threats those in charge in d.c.

to say the least so starting from two thousand and fourteen millions of us aid cash stopped flowing ketones way under mr moran oh the bucks of freedom are slowly starting to find their way back today i'm pleased to announce that the united states who support that effort to root out corruption merely want to have million dollars to support your efforts. to end corruption and strengthen civil society in ecuador so it seems it didn't take long since the right man came in. human rights campaigner peter tatchell believes that the song is being used as a bargaining chip in relations between ecuador and the us. i would suggest it's highly likely that the u.s. government has been putting pressure on the government of ecuador and we know that president. in ecuador himself is under huge pressure his popularity has slumped to about seventeen percent the new york times reported that president moreno had

offered to hand over to the u.s. in exchange for debt relief so i think there is something much deeper going on here and it would be a great great shame if it could all be proud to american pressure and gave up the important principle that a citizen of its country a political refugee been granted asylum should be handed over to a foreign power to face draconian charges cooked up by a secret grand jury the content of which is not known to anyone that would be a very very grave step to take. in of us demonstrators have gathered for what is the twenty first consecutive weekend of mass protests against the government on twenty two thousand have taken to the streets across france this saturday. tear gas against demonstrators and there are reports of forty three people were arrested in paris headed this the country's constitutional

council and the old government plans to ban certain individuals from protesting they said the measure would grant police excessive power and other parts of a crackdown on the rioters were approved to show or do basically explains. a big slap in the face for the french government as the country's constitutional council has ruled that named yellow vests protesters card to be banned from taking part in the continued demonstrations the council the last word on list said plans to give the power to authority would give officials excessive latitude the provisions leave their forty's too much leeway in assessing of the reasons that may justify the ban so called anti breakers' law was passed here in france as part of measures to try and control the weekly protests that have rocked the country protests that often disintegrate into writing and fierce clashes with the police so much so that some cities have banned the.

streets destroyed buildings set alight cause a move to cycles torched the damages costs of two hundred million euros to the french economy with business is tearing their hair out even french banks waded into the debate calling an end for more than four months hundreds of local branches through central links and local life has been targeted vandalized pillaged and bank offices physically threatened it is time for everyone to condemn acts committed against the bank we must quickly put a stop to this unbridled and unjustified violence and it's not just the destruction of towns and cities that has made the headlines since november seventeenth

thousands of people have been injured some suffering life changing injuries. you. know. while some protesters may see this decision by the constitutional council as a when it's not all music to there is the council of held other controversial elements of the breakers law meaning that more severe penalties for organizers of northway stem instructions and for those who cover their faces during violent protests well police now have the right to search individuals and vehicles in the demonstrations in a bid to prevent objects being brought in that could be used as weapons.

arty paris the all of us movement began last november driven by rising fuel prices and a decline in living standards a loss for. the aim of the protesters to very to succeed. yes they brought this. free flow view we. need to know who will. be there we should never forget that. open up. all of the people received and still perceive. them as well as opposition leader is vowing new tactical actions in his latest bid to oust president nicolas maduro wango i doze first move calling for more

nationwide protests on saturday is something we've seen before where he has not gone into much more detail about what his new actions will involve is a local journalist notice are got from the capital caracas. we are here again where one of the most. sounds of protests today protesters are fighting against the blackouts that has been just striking venezuelans since march the seventh this was a called me by one way to earlier this week he called to been a song to protest every time a basic service fails in the country also earlier deuce which he created and to yourself. he plans to tour the country and plans to gain more support from the. cos also a us made a new set of sanctions against us one of. a around one hundred and fifty one.

officials are sanction let's hear what mike pence has to say about the venezuelan situation at this moment the united states of america sanction venezuela state oil company. and today. we're taking action against a vital source for the madeira regimes wealth it is important to remark that also a call for marches to support his government today also nikolaus madeira said that this is another intervention and from the u.s. and republic categorically rejects the latest u.s. attorney on the venezuelan oil industry and its economic sovereignty venezuela believes it's unacceptable cynical and criminal of donald trump's administration to take measures that violate international law as well as economic and commercial principles. and says the latest sanctions would actually make much difference. these latest round of sanctions some of queen twenty thousand to fifty thousand

barrels of oil a day to cuba a much more pressing measure from the white house would have been to apply the same measure to for example when us when an oil exports to china which are increasing every day and have a serious impact on venezuela's books even more across the political divide here in minutes while i hope that military action is merely rhetoric and is not seriously being considered by the white house however when you look at the history of the u.s. pressure in latin america and other areas of the world we can see that military action very overt and covert is definitely prominent so to think have to be taken as a very real threat and. israelis are gearing up to elect the next prime minister on this polling day looms one part of the arab party is begging people not to vote for those who have blood on their hands something some contenders have been boasting about in their campaign videos.

luckily he was like yeah that's mary. government those are sort of her usual and i'm not going to buy you a shot of galileo playing for god damn it they can. not believe you know they say leads. me. to assume. one of the runners in the race to be pm is former chief of the israeli defense forces benny gantz who released a series of short videos under the slogan only the strong when in them he boasts about killing more than thirteen hundred terrorists including us military chiefs and tomming campaign this comes at a time of heightened tension between israel and palestine last week gaza marked the first anniversary of the so-called march of return protest movement since the demonstrations began in march of twenty eighteen one hundred ninety five people

have been killed almost twenty nine thousand injured israel maintains that casualties arise because of the actions of a mass or in self-defense. a sort of political science at birzeit university in the west bank says the shift to the right in israeli politics is being facilitated by geo political factors the whole israeli public more towards the right. that i tunes are flourishing and the other reason which is equally important we are talking about around between seven

hundred thousand two hundred thousand settlers in the west bank and those that have a huge influence on the israeli parties and on the israeli society itself so the tendency towards the right tendency for more violence against the palestinians is a quite natural thing no what is regardless with elections or not with actions but with elections it would appear more to gain the support of the right wing votes so they have to show that they are tough on even the kind of government this is part of sometimes the hypocrisy of the international community quite clearly and we are talking specially about europe they said it quite clearly oh our interest as europeans with the americans is far more important to us than the human rights in palestine so it's quite a quite you know a huge message to the army to the israeli public that you can do whatever you like with the person who can violate however you want and no one is going to hold you

accountable for that well powers or as you all science in libya to deescalate as a commander from eastern libya or dismiss forces to take the capital explain all after the break. when lawmakers manufacture consent to public wealth. when the ruling classes project themselves. with the famous merry go round lifts only the one percent. we can all middle of the room sick. the real news is.

in the world of political matchmaking the european union has long put values before wealth as its most desirable attribute. for the time it takes for the e.u. to make a policy decision china can set up a whole new industry values that's attractive to potential partners. which. powers of called on the warring sides in libya to cease hostilities and deescalate the german ambassador to the un gave a statement after an emergency meeting of the security council the members of the security council expressed deep concern that the military to fit he called on l.m.a. forces to halt all military movements meanwhile

a commander from eastern libya khalifa haftar is now close to tripoli and has ordered his forces to take the capital the u.n. back to government based in tripoli carried out several hours strikes targeting after asked positions or one hundred forty five his troops have been captured and cohen has more. our forces moved north coming as close as forty kilometers to tripoli by taking the village of soup after some fighting earlier on how tar ordered his forces to not open fire on civilians tripoli is controlled by the un backed government of prime minister five years also raj the u.n. chief antonio gutierrez says he is leaving libya with quote heavy heart and deep concern i still hope you could be possible to avoid a lot of the colts rotation in and out all tripoli. and the united nations the main. available to facilitate any political solution able to uni

fight the libyan institutions to briefly explain the situation in libya the country's been torn apart by warring factions since late libyan leader moammar gadhafi was ousted by nato backed militia men in two thousand and eleven since then two rival governments have emerged one backed by the united nations and based in the western city of tripoli and another in the eastern city of tobruk that's allied to huffed are former u.s. diplomat jim gentry splays the current chaos in libya is an inevitable result of the western intervention eight years ago. this is what happens when you have violent regime change from the outside in a country and happened in libya in two thousand and eleven this is this is squarely on the doorstep of david cameron nicolas sarkozy and of course hillary clinton barack obama they were the ones that led this is mary campaign for democracy and democracy for the libyan people and once it got them but years of chaos years of

killing years of civil war this is simply the latest round in it whether we will see some early resolution to this where one government or the other a brain which is its rival stands to be seen but until then i don't see anything good happening in this country unfortunately. images have emerged online allegedly showing saudi arabia's first nuclear reactor experts say the facility could already start operations within a year i would guess they could have it all done with the roof in place and the electricity turned on within a year we had is known to have been developing civilian nuclear energy but will power as a concerned as the saudis have not signed up to rules that prevent them from producing nuclear weapons. we would like to clearly and categorically deny the claims regarding the nuclear energy facility recently set up at the king abdullah's this center for science and technology the purpose and intent of this small

facility is to engage in strictly peaceful scientific research educational and training activities in full compliance with international agreements in this matter and in coordination with the international nuclear energy agency. of the country strongly criticizes a run for developing its nuclear energy sector accusing it of intending to produce nuclear weapons but the international atomic energy agency has visited iranian plants and confirmed that they are in full compliance with international law. the director of the nuclear studies institute at american inspectors. you know iran is complying with the nuclear deal why not have it the same safeguards in saudi arabia that we have now in iraq the same degree of inspections the same degree of surveillance and same degree of monitoring hopefully the world's nuclear fuel suppliers will not provide fuel for saudi arabia until it does come into compliance

with the additional protocols the saudis have some technological capability they're looking to expand their nuclear energy development and that and the thing that frightens many observers looting me is that they would actually use nuclear energy development as a cover for developing nuclear weapons if that happens in the middle east sastre. an elderly elephant has escaped to death row in south africa after a court threw out a decision to have him killed because locals had complained to dummies that property. think. i'm going to take a step. nearer

. to. be satisfied with these magnificent giants it should be up to me on the thinkable to kill them simply because it's easier than managing the land in a way that considers the biological drive not very great leap of faith and doubt that. ok i'll be back with updates for you in half an hour. if you don't buy into my ponzi scheme on going to shoot my got you even though the body scan was well known to be

a ponzi schemer yes you see it investigated bernie madoff police twice before they finally busted him and they it was a well known ponzi scheme invested by well known people massive bernie had an army now apply that to the u.s. dollar the u.s. dollar is a ponzi scheme why do people want the u.s. dollar because if they don't the u.s. military said and they're obliterated whether it's iraqi or libya or some other place like this around and so that's what paul krugman a set of the new york times rightly said the u.s. dollar is worthless it's backed by law. now and there was a crack seems to do crack when i was a local my dad he was like a. so you know like what i needed when i was a baby but i had a bad childhood. there's a. single mothers an african-american community service and same for. more of a teenager's having kids. you can expect

a fourteen or fifteen year old first voted out order for him maybe a far there any child. we asked was unable to get to work on time sunny let me go with my paycheck that i bring home. nearly enough to pay my car in short. time after time so we're going underground when the edge of the day the u.s. military illegally bomb syria in response to an allegedly faked chemical attack in qana she could coming up with a show the e.u. may be in trouble over brics is in nato maybe in defacto civil war after its seventieth birthday party but it was sure in china it was the already lose the

information war we get the take of the chairman of russia's commission on information and media well this is all coming up in today's going underground but first straight to this week's seventieth birthday party for nato in washington it was where the secretary of state cheerleading for a legal regime change in venezuela made clear that nato was founded for peace back in ninety forty million everyone agreed with the central notion the need it would be a force for peace some thought the idea of nato was. yes the video feed actually cuts out that but then i'll give lee the effectiveness of nature technology has never been the alliance's full of say when normal transmission resumed compare went on to proudly named jack major's longest ongoing war in afghanistan well this week we got an insight into what some u.k. nato soldiers from the parachute regiment are doing in kabul practicing the mother of u.k. labor party leader jeremy corben. the

u.k. ministry of defense is investigating but who now all the targets of nato and today across the world new challenges are confronting us rushing to grant aggression mass migration vulnerabilities inherent to new technologies along with older persistent ones they've created geo political environment is increasingly unstable and even more competitive yes competition refugees from nato was and russia challenges but on that competition mike pence vice president of the country that spends more on killing machine.
