5:02 am
a son that the united states wanted him that's why he was in the ecuadorian embassy and he was right america is seeking extradition and if you watch enough t.v. you surely know why his russian connections can we address the question at hand and that is whether or not you can say definitively that russia had no part in this. was trying to sabotage the twenty six thousand election and have these facts in front of them saw assad as an agent agent or at least a provocateur or a collaborator with the russian government tonight there is growing evidence that russia is using wiki leaks as a delivery vehicle for hacked e-mails and other information it was everywhere on every pundit slips for years assad's weekly putin russia meddling echoed and echoed by everyone important enough to be on camera like us need is
5:03 am
it's time to call out wiki leaks for what it really is a non-state hostile intelligence service often abetted by state actors like russia they've acted in concert with the russians to interfere on our elections to help you pack into a look at information from the russians at least in a way to disrupt our campaigns and twenty sixteen i don't think that's it's not right to legal and i hope mr as much as possible just because you get forty years for. russia meddling in what you do by their word he's a covert k.g.b. asset on a secret mission to topple the united states that is if you watch enough t.v. if you don't if you actually read the indictment against in the charges not to mention of russia not to mention of elections of meddling e-mails or grand plots to topple the united states his crime allegedly was that he worked with chelsea. manning to obtain classified documents that showed us human rights abuses in
5:04 am
iraq and afghanistan the u.s. government asked you. state all the chargers. can't charge mr scotch with extradition stating. you fail to do you not mistress arches us that lands on us on. our experiment or bring their charges just consider this if the us had anything anything tying as signage to russia or meddling or conspiracy do you think they would have shown it to mentioned it this is it this is the unique charge he faces and because of how extradition works they can't add any more charges if they get him. the extradition order. needs to know at that stage what exact charges so for example. the extradition
5:05 am
court u.k. or not extradite somebody to the west if the charges that are products. not exist there's no charge. so the extradition court makes very clear we're only going to extradite on those charges are sent to us and. we decided. that the states with the shirts are now saying about six years that's going by what lawyers and experts are saying the u.s. doesn't have much of a case and that ass and is found guilty it sets a nasty precedent where journalists can be jailed for posting classified material no matter how vital like the manning files.
5:06 am
this remarkable as it may be the u.s. is now saying that exposing us human rights abuses wanted murder committed by the u.s. military exposing that is really serious than the abuses and murder themselves chilled formally bradley manning was freed by a bomb up but judging by the toxicity on t.v. in washington. shouldn't be too hopeful but you haven't. no trump is trump wiki leaks i love working. with state police forcibly
5:07 am
removed from the dorian embassy in london we can say it came off to strip him of his secretary and citizenship and revoked his asylum which was granted almost seven years ago ecuador says that. the terms of his asylum. in the country former foreign minister ricardo patino claim the current ecuadorian government has struck a deal with. what is clear here is that moreno who is currently the president of ecuador has reached an agreement with the u.s. they agreed to loans from the international monetary fund and an exchange agreed to things hand over julian a songe and the process of the latin american integration moreno has betrayed his homeland yet the british police to enter our embassy the embassy which we've been defending since two thousand and twelve it's clear that the death penalty still
5:08 am
exists in the us i repeat it's public information they commit barbaric acts of torture against those they consider an enemy clearly julian assange is an enemy to them that's exactly why we gave him political asylum seeker. he's going underground spoke to songes long time legal advisor he explained why he believes the breach you was not the real reason behind the arrest you can watch the full interview later today. the home secretary said to germany ahead of the release of further or further rest of said he's right be facing justice in the u.k. where he's not facing justice in the u.k. other than for breach of bail which is a very minor offense usually dealt with by a guy or a few weeks in prison these politicians so maybe he will stir up the judges to give him a couple of months but the justice that he's facing in is justice or in
5:09 am
justice in america which wants him and has charges really for up to forty five years imprisonment the trump argument is this that the first amendment which protects journalists for him asli only a prize to american journalist and doesn't apply to any foreign journalist even those working for american papers in fact driven goodale who was the hero of the pentagon papers case he was the lawyer for the new york times he came out of retirement be up a day and he said we're sondra case however much you dislike which his case is the most important for media freedom since the pentagon papers case well one of the biggest revelations of the leaks published by a science concerned alleged war crimes in afghanistan the international criminal
5:10 am
court has been looking into similar accusations for a while now but has just decided not to open an investigation into the matter the i.c.c. claims that doing so now would be counter productive. the judge has decided that the investigation into the situation in afghanistan at this stage would not serve the interests of justice the i.c.c. noted the lack of cooperation that the prosecutor has received which is likely to go scarce should an investigation be authorized hampering the chances of successful investigation and prosecution while the us president donald trump paled the decision is quote a major international victory for the rule of law washington recently revoked an entry visa for the prosecutor responsible for the probe citing the need to protect the country subbrand the us has refused to sign up to the i.c.c. with officials lashing out at the court. we will not cooperate with the i.c.c.
5:11 am
we will provide no assistance to the i.c.c. and we certainly will not join the i.c.c. as far as america is concerned the i.c.c. has no jurisdiction no legitimacy and no authority we will ban its judges and prosecutors from entering the united states the i.c.c. planes near universal jurisdiction over the citizens of every country the united states will use any means necessary to protect our citizens and those of our allies from i'm just prosecution by this illegitimate court. but the i.c.c. opened an initial investigation into the she when two thousand and six this allegation that over ten thousand civilians were killed in atrocities as well as claims of torture and rape and twenty seventeen the i.c.c. prosecutor asked judges to take things further so you're saying that there were reasonable grounds to suspect the u.s.
5:12 am
military was implicated human rights watch says the court's decision to reject a proper investigation set of precedent. to the i.c.c. toted to rejection of an afghanistan investigation is a devastating blow for victims who have suffered grievous crimes without red dress the judge's logic effectively allows member countries to opt out of copulating with the court and swore activist again says the i.c.c. has no power against the us. i don't think that an entity like an i c c would be able to bring those charges to the front and i think if we look back i mean you take on yugoslavia you take on small countries in africa maybe countries in latin america or maybe countries in south asia but taking on the united states i mean i i mean you can i guess the president do that with the case with the signs right now this is this is not only
5:13 am
a janet stand but we have to look at did they do they do anything about iraq no that was illegal occupation legal invasion just like a pianist on this case is not the first case that points that out i think there are a few cases that point going back to even the crimes in yugoslavia that the nato committed i think there's quite a few cases and there's quite a few precedents to show that i.c.c. is actually not capable of. bringing the real actors so the western countries they're hedging ones to the table and actually charging them with crimes. seventy five people have been killed and i have a three hundred twenty wounded in libya in the last ten days that's according to the world health organization the country's ongoing civil war that has been escalating after general holyfield have takis forces control eastern libya ordered his army to march on the capital the u.n. is calling on all parties to the conflict to land hostilities. health
5:14 am
partners have verified seventeen civilian casualties so far with seven fatalities including three medical staff at least five ambulances have been hit since the onset of the conflict we continue to call for a humanitarian pause to allow people to safely evacuated and emergency services to get through and for all parties to abide by their obligations under international humanitarian law meanwhile thousands of libyans have been gathering in tripoli to protests. fighting in the region libya has been more oil since the ousting of gadhafi back in twenty eleven since then the country has seen the setting up of two rival governments one but by the un in tripoli. to prove his point with looks back now at how the civil war in libya began in her latest edition of u.k. she missed. cia stooges competing colonialists powerless us billions of barrels of the black stuff in case you missed it doing civil war in libya has
5:15 am
this really. just in the early i thought. freedom and prosperity in libya twenty eleven creating a glorious. light and saved turns out i was wrong. not the business of the revolution to get rid of this guy the more you know this one shows up i just look at them like little despotic but. general. self-proclaimed libyan. apparently useful for colonel moammar gadhafi then turned against him before going into exile in the u.s. for twenty years in langley virginia where the cia is based. how is that significant seriously i am trying to record something here where was i
5:16 am
after is launched a military offensive and a place to take control of the whole country is often there reassuring promise that security comes politics second. stop was to defeat the government of national accord which is really a risk or national or an accord with anything but one thing on its side the recognition of the u.n. and the service that seems easy enough international. nation native. half dollar bill says everything gets better it works every time the plan has everyone's best whale in the press. so while the un officially recognizes the tripoli government the french egypt and the saudis have been funding and backing general. who also got a personalized guided tour of a russian aircraft carrier by twenty seventeen italy is backing the other side and
5:17 am
the us just pulled out of its soldiers from libya. quite a geopolitical. currently all the sides are doing the only thing may sound do when they can't do anything calling for a strange kind of dialogue my advice to anyone who lives in a corrupt sandy country with a serious amount of oil is to leave here just very back. i was pretty boy there will be you mean these demanding that general have to stop his military operation against the tripoli. the military attack launched by the enemy on tripoli and the subsequent escalation in and around the capital armed dangerous civilians including migrants and refugees and disrupting the un led political process with the risk of serious consequences for libya and the wider
5:18 am
region including the terrorist threat the block does seem to spit on the issue france reportedly rejected an earlier statement calling on the leader of the libyan national army to pull back his troops paris's oil assets in eastern libya and has been providing military help to have to italy though it's criticize france's start . it would be very serious of france for economical commercial reasons had blocked an e.u. initiative to bring peace to libya and would support a party that is fighting as minister of the interior i would not stand by and watch something that the two thousand and eleven nato led military intervention in libya promoted by then french president nicolas sarkozy was triggered by a konami can commercial interests them but humanitarian concerns the former deputy speaker of the belgian parliament late for news thinks that the spit in the over libya is linked to the geopolitical interests of its members. about your political
5:19 am
a position of france and italy in a lesson manner browns was the one country that started the war on libya in the first place for the same reason that there were there but they do not supporting the guy that they think will protect their interests ironically enough dismount those leading the libyan national army is a former gadhafi goalie or eight to lay down and go to disunity and left the country for several years this man is just as a reliable as and the other military dictator i mean it just shows that when it go really comes down to it democracy human rights and so on is just irrelevant. now with religious violence on the rise in france we look at whether the media has a sections of the issue that's among the stories will take a look at this stuff. put
5:20 am
themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. i want to. have two going to be press which is what the before three of them or can't be good. i'm interested in the waters of. course. there are millions of people in america and around the world who are better educated than ray dahlia but in order to succeed on wall street you need to complete lack of empathy this is driven in study after study after study. has no consideration about the effect he's having of society and the the ruination of the law is that he's contributing to
5:21 am
being a leak on the system with is hedge fund that's a lack of empathy there that takes a certain kind of myopia and stupidity to work yourself into that state. hello again jim and media outlets and politicians to have ranted on the country's justice minister after she gave an interview to each in her seven minutes appearance katherina touched on a number of issues concerning europe including germany's ties with russia. has more . well the german justice minister catherine of bali is found herself in hot water according to some lost on the political sea according to others it's scary to see how you can completely lose your political compas in no time well what heinous act did she commit she spoke to the media or as some would have you believe the wrong
5:22 am
type of media this is all come about after ms bali gave an interview to r.t. german language sister service. member whose land we maintain close ties with russia russia was and always will be our partner however that doesn't mean we don't take issue with sass and things but then that's a natural part of any relationship. nordstrom to is a private enterprise and we as a government do not interfere i also do not consider it appropriate to comment on u.s. plans in any way. europe has external and internal enemies these include all who seek to weaken at first of all of course these are the e.u. countries that want to become nation states again and stop their usual cooperation with us in order to pursue their selfish national interests heaven forfend
5:23 am
a german politician give an interview to a russian news outlet about issues that affect both nations the minister must be out of her mind according to the german tabloid press justice minister caterina barely wants to join the european parliament for the s.p.d. and has given many interviews so far so good but why she took questions from the kremlin propaganda portal russia today is not comprehensible to many in political circles. while the c.d.u. is fighting for every euro to strengthen europe's security the s.p.d. european candidate katherina barley gives interviews the russian state propaganda that there's twenty four seven to weaken europe because they're in a barely of the europe in the un through body all smiling and friendly to those who want to send europe plummeting into chaos with their education freedom of the press sorry make that freedom to talk to the press as long as it's the ones the chairman
5:24 am
tabloids approve of. and religious violence is on the rise in france with a spike in attacks against minorities however the line share of incidents in the country to christians something the mainstream media's coverage seems to miss charlotte to minsk expects. anti religious attacks are taking place on an almost daily basis in france but while some incidents seem to attract a lot of attention others are largely being ignored according to the french observer. for b. so nearly twenty nineteen was the worst month for churches in france and stay began collecting data in two thousand and fifteen but in addition to churches other public christian symbols have also been targeted for example some across as a mountain tops public crucifixes has been destroyed or vandalized and public statues of jesus and the virgin mary have been decapitated or destroyed and
5:25 am
according to the observatory in france anti christian attacks have sharply risen since the beginning of twenty nineteen this is paris is historic seoul suit peace last month a fire here briefly caught the attention of the media. it didn't take long for an investigation to say the attack was deliberate and cause nearly a million euros damage or take a closer look at how it was reported by some news wires the headline reads the church briefly catches fire. it's almost a month later the story doesn't appear to have been updated suggesting that the deliberate attack on one of paris is the largest church is just wasn't backed
5:26 am
newsworthy at the same time other anti religious attacks not only make the headlines they stay. the latest official figures from the french government to give us a better insight into what's happening in twenty eighteen there was a sharp rise in. a number of anti sematic incidents five hundred forty one that's up seventy four percent compared with twenty seventeen the incidents were broken down showing what they were related to including murder violence and threats anti muslim x. one hundred alone since twenty ten meanwhile the number of anti christian acts reached one thousand and sixty three a slight increase compared with the previous year no further detail with people but was shocking to me was the almost casual way that the ministry described it as saying quote the number of anti-christian acts is stable over the year when the
5:27 am
interior minister downplays or. seems to sideline the acts against christians it fuels the assumption that only minority religions deserve protection unquestionably the increase in anti-semitic attacks is of serious concern but by ministers minimizing the number of anti-christian incidents and providing no details the government signals in a not so subtle way that this is less important it's unclear who is carrying out these attacks or why they are taking place but there's real concern that the way that the french government and the media generally underplay them means that they could be being significantly underreported meaning the true scale is still unknown. ski r.t. paris just coming up to half past twelve the afternoon here in moscow thanks for
