assessment came up the center petersburg international economic forum speaking alongside other world leaders. british prime minister treason may officially steps down as leader of the conservative party and the race to replace her is all on with our 11 count up job. around the clock across the world this is your r.t. international from the team and myself you know neal hello and welcome we begin with breaking news this hour artie's video agency ruptly has given us a glimpse behind bars after its obtained exclusive video footage showing julian assange inside london's belmarsh prison the video shows the wiki leaks founder looking quite frail and is the 1st since his arrest on removal from the ecuadorian

embassy almost 2 months ago the video was taken inside the high security prison where his son just serving a 50 week sentence for skipping bail he's also reportedly been spending time in the child hospital as well. edwards has made. as you can see some what amounts to hair in this exclusive. video agency has obtained that was. apparently shot by one of the inmates at the belmarsh high security prison here in the united kingdom where the wiki leaks founder is currently serving his 50 week sentence for skipping bell in the united kingdom at the end of may we know that he was transferred to the prisons health world and indeed here in the united kingdom the courts did decide to postpone a hearing at the westminster magistrate's court late last month due to his ill

health as he was unable to appear not even via video link and indeed the wiki leaks they too believe that his condition is worsening by the day there being a higher security guards or maximum security prison it's difficult for anyone for julian spent 7 years ago finding the ecuadorian embassy for all their. medical treatment without most of the article 3 limbs now on top of that nonsmoker he was indeed visited by the un special rapporteur on torture. having said that british politicians here in the united kingdom including foreign secretary jeremy hunt they believe that this is not a matter for exterior interventions and only a matter for the british judicial system here in the united kingdom so let's recap exactly where we are at now of course the case was reopened after the wiki leaks co-founder was hauled out of london's ecuadorian embassy last month he spent up to

7 years there fearing for extradition to the united states in that time he was confined to the premises and in the last year also his internet was cut off and his connection to the outside world was severely limited now as i say the u.k. is currently reviewing extradition requests from both the united states and sweden meanwhile though of course in the united states they've introduced 17 indictments against late in may charging him on to the s.p. . act for that he faces a sentence of life imprisonment actually the sum of a 175 years in prison if found guilty however to his supporters including campaigners activists and indeed janice they believe that judas songe is a valiant campaign effort true in fact they believe he should be applauded and not pass acute it for simply telling the truth. but i do want to bring you up north you know where world leaders have to control the stage in st petersburg including the

russian and chinese presidents in a lengthy q. and a the international economic forum president putin told the congress hole that america's push for dominance could be a driving force towards something more than just economic disputes our correspondent at the forum and r t sophie shevardnadze who was the moderator this afternoon signature session give us a taste of the main event. but you why wouldn't you meet him without any conditions or you did i refuse i wasn't invited to some time when i know what kind of negotiate a trump is he is a wonderful businessman at 1st he terminates an existing contract rights and then he stops playing by the rules and then there are forced negotiations and in the end he gets a deal which is favorable to him that he wants the same nafta something similar happened to japan what will happen was you.

maybe i have an answer to this question in my notes. that. you see is good i asked it generally it's good that you hear and asking questions for years now i was here last year the year before that and this event was always moderated by western journalists this time though when it was you know questions about russian meddling or russian interference but you had many other things to talk about that are very important for this world or the right moment i think we're already had one plenary session that was dedicated to russia settling into the american election so i don't think it was more us going into that one more time yet and the time passed and we had the reports it was obvious that there's nothing to talk about that was that. there were a lot of things that we could have discussed it in terms of china russia

cooperation road palko for asia and the russian economic. tokenization and i think it was very indicative also that. person could then present see they were 1st aired about it you know my question today what answer me straight forwardly. when i was asking them about the trade war because i do believe it is the most important economic topic of to. day between china and america they were sort of hitting hinting at a. american site starting work but they wouldn't give the plane the americans or a very diplomatic path but both of them pretty much agreed that. they could not be that global war all the global economy and free trade with protectionism and isolationism and if you want to weave together in one world that we better do it together so if we just make it clear for viewers so pete was talking about the you

raise an economic the unions are it is an equivalent of the e.u. so to say but when it comes to the former soviet republics in russia but you were talking about trade wars that was of course the number one topic because you were sitting right next to vladimir putin but chinese leader cheating now i just want to play you a segment of that discussion when the leaders. they were quite the metaphorical in the way he answered sophie's question let's take a listen. but you know if you're unhappy with fleas in your fur coat you can simply throw a fur coat into the oven it's that sincere of us natural that if we were a new chairman z. has explained the tariff war ready as a fight between globalization and to globalization the question is where does russia stand in the fight for the economic superiority get this ship was lose is a good chinese proverb when the tigers are fighting in the valley

a smart monkey sits out of the way and watches how it then. so you see the presidents are not giving mains but it's clear who they're talking about and it's clear that they are not the ones war initiating this conflict when it comes to the economic international battlefield play that's what i meant that were very diplomatic in their answers because both of them are way to brands to actually. point fingers that anyone in particular but i think will understand that they meant america and they meant that we didn't start the straight for america started and it's best that we need to clean up together because it is not a good thing for the world economy and then the we went on to talk about russian sanctions we got to the russian sanctions so we got to that point a bit later and the line up of the panel was very interesting as well because we had the leaders of. the biggest country russia the 2nd biggest economy china of

course there's no disrespect to the smaller countries but the e.u. members that were there on that tunnel there are perhaps not the most important voices in brussels but still they have something very important to say right and it was great to see how you dug into the matter with them they were saying that in many cases. even though they support the common * position of the european union. in many cases they're against the anti-abortion sanctions and this is not the way to go right but actually i wouldn't agree with you when you're saying that the voices don't really matter in the u. because the sanctions they're actually reenacted you they latter they sit their voices do matter if either of them like i pointed out voted against the sanctions that the sanctions will be off so that was a very important point for you to ask them and i mean you could tell that their

hands are tied and they couldn't say that we really want the sanctions to be off that we're part of the european union but that's like the usual answer that you european representatives give and i mean we can understand them right because they're not in a position to go against the whole union but they're very clear about the message that it's crazy that even the people who are actually putting these sanctions in place. 5 minutes are looking for ways to trade somehow with russia and this is double standards that shouldn't be taking place and it is better for everyone involved for the sanctions to be off and i believe it's very important that you were able to get this kind of answer from them. ok let's leave some petersburg for not move across the atlantic because the united states continues to run all the pressure on president maduro government in

venezuela announcing new sanctions against the state owned oil company but it seems that washington is still unsure about the future of the lot and american nation on whether a majority should in fact stepped on a leaked audio recording suggests the u.s. secretary of state is finding it difficult to unite the fractured bennis with an opposition into one force here's our tees up and. bike pompei always been caught making some comments about venezuela that were not intended for the prime time viewers apparently he's not sure who would replacement there oh if his regime change efforts are successful. just to keep the opposition. groups devilishly difficult moments early it's. everybody's going to be the. president of the us will be people who run for mayor of st jerome. pompei i was pretty clear about the fact that this discussion was not meant for

public consumption so we didn't get a favorable response i was this is what america's top diplomat said at the united nations when the lights were on and the cameras were rolling now we have a new leader one gordo in venezuela who has promised to bring elections and constitutional order back to venezuela and security back to the region we cannot delay this critical conversation which has the world's attention for the sake of venezuela and the region we must support the venezuelan people and do so right now my comp aoe isn't too concerned about what happens in venezuela after the current leadership is overthrown now let's not forget that the us meddling in the country's internal affairs is motivated purely by selfless humanitarian concerns about the people so after regime change there are 40 plus contenders who will then fight it out for power now does that remind you of any recent events in current history take

for example the us invasion of iraq dick cheney said that it would go well my belief is we will in fact be greeted as liberators but there's been nothing but chaos and civil war in iraq since the usa invaded there are 288000 deaths so far and counting and dick cheney wasn't completely clueless listen to what he said in 1904 what you got to iraq and took it over and took down saddam hussein's government the money going to put in place for take libya hillary clinton was delighted to hear that gadhafi had been put to the sword we came we saw he died but now even barack obama admits that toppling the libyan government didn't come with a game plan for what happens next what he considers his worst mistake as president probably failing to. plan for. the day after. what i think was the right thing to do in. the intervening. in libya but who needs planning right after all the people of venezuela would probably love to have their

homeland go the way of iraq and libya nothing says freedom and liberation like having regime change followed by civil war and thousands of refugees fleeing for their lives it confirms something that we you know long suspected but you know now you know is out in the open that the opposition is so internally divided washington you know the figures like marco rubio favor a radical regime change scenario which involves you know effectively destroying the existing institutional structure that has been built in venice where the you know in the words of john bolton that to open up venezuela's busy oil sector to us and you know to really return but as well to the pre 999 status quo where it was a reliable ally in the region and you know reliable agent of the u.s. opec to maintain a low while prices as the u.s. diplomatic cables themselves acknowledge. british prime minister to resign

may officially step down as leader of the conservative party impose she's held for 3 years now the scramble to replace her is in overdrive nominations for the party leadership start on monday with 11 come that it's currently vying for the top job pulling boy when i takes a look at who's in the really. she's been burned by bragg's it and now the woman known as teflon to reason is on the way out after repeatedly failing to push her e.u. withdrawal deal through parliament last month the pm finally announced that she'd be stepping down and she did it with a whimper rather than a bang the 2nd female prime minister but certainly not the last. i do so with no ill will but with enormous and enduring gratitude to have had to the opportunity to serve the country i love there is looking at the number of

candidates that have joined the race to replace may as prime minister may find themselves crying too and they're seeing what's going on here they've got no say in what's going on they can see there's 11 people standing up saying they want to you may think it's. always call me no it's even worse when this is going to be detrimental the long term of the conservative party sure officially the race only begins on monday but already there are in leadership contenders with 2 having already dropped out and the british media is indulging itself poring over the kaleidoscope of varying degrees of soft and hard brags it's candidates like foreign secretary jeremy hunt health secretary matt hancock or environment secretary michael gove although there is already one clear favorite.

and he's already got donald trump's seal of approval no worse i like your my i've liked him for a long time he's i think you do a very good job but the tory leadership contest is a complicated process. yes and past experience has shown the favorite never wins so this is anybody's race each candidate has to have the support of at least 8 members of parliament from that conservative m.p.'s will be asked to vote several times in order to whittle down the crowd of power hungry politicians to just one final head to head battle now at that point the decision will be turned over to conservative party members that grassroots conservatives that could be hauled down

the road or treasure who lives next door and it is they who will ultimately decide who becomes the next prime minister with such a crowded field of hopefuls this summer britain is bracing itself for a political popularity contest like no other as for 2 reason may the woman that's been forced to leave 10 downing street before securing britain's departure from the you will stay on as a lame duck leader job now is to keep the chair warm for several more weeks until busy one of this lot finally takes over the top job. we heard from a member of the british economics thing to say he's a serious both awaits treason a successor. well unfortunately she's left behind very very difficult situation for the incoming prime minister i think another vote unlikely in the shorts

because this will be seen as not simply trial by those type of votes it leaves i mean it kind of undermines the whole idea of democracy if you don't stick to results and then keep repeating the election over and over again until you get the result that the establishment wants so that would really really further undermine trust in politics nevertheless it's going to be very difficult given the vast majority of m.p.'s are probably you're not going to let probably block any real breakthrough deal so if we get. prime minister he's really he or she's really going to struggle to get through parliament and could even face a vote of no confidence to prevent the u.k. leaving with no deal which point he or she will probably have to call a general election and that would be hugely risky. gamble to turn the program's attention to south america and chile where renewed clashes have erupted in the capital santiago the violence kicked off during

a protest led by teachers who are demanding better working conditions. several demonstrators were detained the authorities used tear gas and water cannon to try and restore order friday's protests mark a 5th consecutive day of nationwide strikes across chile 45 people gathered in the capital where we're seeing. to the moment to revamp the education. a drug bust in central moscow seen an investigative journalist for the online media that medusa arrested after russian police said they had numerous packages in the suspects place of residence double quarter reports. while medusa claims yvonne going over his meeting with the source when he was stopped and searched by police on thursday officers claimed they found bags of a suspicious powder substance on him which they later determined to be the drug

known as bath salts during a subsequent search of his apartment other bags as well as scales were found according to the police earlier got a lawyer said that they demanded a medical test to confirm or deny contact with drugs but the police are now saying that it is denying that test after being given the option he also told the media that go no it was denied a lawyer for 12 hours constituting a violation of his rights but the police claim that they made a lawyer available to him in accordance with russian law going off himself claims that the police planted these drugs on him in a written complaint he also said that he was beaten and refused 1st aid in detention an accusation that the police also deny now citing earlier threats against north alleged that he allegedly received there is convinced of his innocence saying he was targeted for his journalistic work the internet publication going over works for is based in lafayette and usually publishes works of kremlin

opponents in russian according to reports. several opposition journalists were already arrested today and released for protesting in front of the moscow police headquarters. president trump say these things could be different between washington and moscow if quote the phony which surrounding russia on the 26000 u.s. election was not still being pushed he was speaking to fox news on thursday. i think while they have a good relationship with russia i think the family which you know i did have a good relationship with russia it is close to 2 months since special counsel robert muller's reports said donald trump did not collude with russia to win the presidency of the firehouse and dined on us democrats are still desperately trying to find a way to impeach the president not building their case on obstruction of justice allegations our senior correspondent busy gets dia takes up the story formally there are those who support trub those who want him impeached and those who

really really really want him impeached preferably now and in the painful way take for instance this particularly enthusiastic new york times contributor who is gone and written up actual articles of impeachment to save everyone's time i suppose or maybe just a hobby of his who knows others c.b.s. have impeachment track is literally counting congressmen who are calling for trump to be impeached like kids opening chocolate field advent calendars 63 now out of 535 senators and representatives just a few 100 to go and trump will hiring just need a reason you can't impeach for annoying tweets about noxious hairstyles or nor existant collusion all that's left is obstruction when

a subject of an investigation obstruct that investigation or lies to investigators it strikes at the core of the government's effort to find the truth and hold wrongdoers accountable here's a question that's been giving me lawyers migraines how or why does one obstruct an investigation an investigation that later proves he was innocent of the crime he was being investigated for the special counsel's report. which states that his investigation did not establish that members of the trump campaign conspired or coordinated with the russian government in its election interference activities namely any sort of collusion with russia it's almost impossible to have an obstruction of. underlying crime what makes trump especially awful obstruction is he voluntarily gave his investigators sometimes and writing material on how he allegedly tried to obstruct the investigation like when he reportedly told the then

white house counsel to get rid of mueller fire him and then allow that counsel to go and testify to mueller the faily new york times wrote a fake piece today implying that because white house counsel don my gann was given hours of testimony to the special counsel he must be john dean type of rant but i allowed him and all others to testify i didn't have to i have nothing to hide in fact trumpet boasted earlier about what a good boy he was being about how much workload he had provided investigators the white house handed over 20000 pages of documents the 2016 campaign 1400000 pages 20 white house employees gave voluntary interviews it's like trump was building an obstruction of justice case against himself and on top of that he was terrible at it or wasn't fod he investigated for

$674.00 days and only finished when he was done so this is it if you can figure out how to impeach trump for trying to conceal crimes he didn't commit contact your local democrat immediately i expect anytime soon i'll be offering a reward it is not obstruction of justice in any way again this was the obstruction of justice not. for a court proceeding of course this was not a court proceeding this was an informal investigation through an executive agency an executive body and so because of that the elements are a little bit different it would have to be willful omission or willful concealment or destruction of evidence during an investigation which of course did not happen in this case i don't think in the end there will be any consequences for obstruction because i don't think obstruction can be proven i do believe that the democrats are still real and the democrats want to make sure that they are not seen

as having wasted $40000000000.00 of taxpayer money in order to start or engage in an investigation and a spying campaign based on evidence that wasn't even legitimate so i think the democrats are going to continue to try i think that will be a term that continues to be thrown around just so they can save face because they're looking to retake the white house in 2020. the torah based broadcaster. is facing a double standards for reporting on the l g b t q in march the chunnel repeatedly been reporting on similar events worldwide on its english language channel but guitar itself. of homosexuality with penalties of up to 7 years in prison.
