a higher security guards or maximum security prison it's difficult for anyone but julian spent 7 years of combined in the ecuadorian embassy before for. medical treatment without most of the article 3 let's recap exactly where we are at now of course the case was reopened after that we keep weeks 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 sweet and meanwhile though of course in the united states they've introduced 17 indictments against late in may charging him on to the espionage act for that he faces a sentence of life in prison. 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 you are solid as a valiant campaigner for truth in fact they believe you should be applauded and not pass acute it for simply telling the truth that video comes shortly after the u.n. special report on torture claimed assange has been exposed to psychological torture during his years in the ecuadorian embassy there is no suffering its consequences we spoke to mr meltzer about the way assad has been treated and what could wait to in the future you can watch that interview in full on ahead tonight on r.t. america at the same time is going online though wherever you are watching t. dot com. what we have seen now during my visit was already alarming and what we have seen since then that his state of health has dramatically the area rated as predicted by a psychiatrist accompany my visit today mr sanchez no longer capable to participate
4:05 am
in his own court hearings it is very important here that we speak about the risks that he would be exposed to in case of extradition to the us personally i'm convinced there is no chance he would get a fair trial in the united states very difficult for him to get. a unbiased impartial court hearing the fair trial also requires all the gallery that he's actually being charged for something that is punishable now if you look at the 17 of the 18 charges are under the espionage act and all of them relates to activities that any investigative journalist would conduct and then the 18th charge the so-called hacking charge doesn't relate to here doesn't claim that he actually hacked a computer to receive information but he obtained all of the information he published by someone who had full clearance so he as any other investigative journalists it's
4:06 am
just received disinformation it's a bit like charging someone for trying to exceed the speed limit but not succeeding because the car is too weak i don't think that makes sense from a prosecutorial standpoint even if theoretically you could construct a certain criminal energy i don't think that makes any sense at all it certainly doesn't justify the type of suffering he has been going through and that he would likely face when when extradited to the u.s. . york times be forced to apologize for misreporting on the script poisoning in the u.k. back in march last year it wrote that the cia director gina housefull showed president trump images of dead ducks in a children allegedly from the scene of the attack and the british authorities critic affirmed those photos were not related to the incident new york times to 2 months to issue a correction kellam open as more. you're remember when the new york times dropped a bombshell about how gina haskell the cia director had convinced donald trump to
4:07 am
send russian diplomats packing in response to the script all poisoning by showing him photographs of dead ducks and sick children except those reports turned out to be fake news the author has apologized i regret the error and offer my apology i strive to get information right the 1st time that is was subscribers pay for but when i give something bone fix it so this is how they fixed it an earlier version of this article in correctly described the photos that you know house bills showed to president trump during a discussion about responding to the nerve agent attack in britain on a former russian intelligence officer miss haskell displayed pictures illustrating the consequences of nerve agent attacks not images specific to the chemical attack in britain let's break this down a little bit more so gina haskell the cia director shows donald trump images of the impact of nerve agents here is what the original article said ms haskell showed
4:08 am
pictures of the british government had supplied her of young children hospitalized after being sickened by the nova choked nerve agent that poisoned the script holes she then showed a photograph of ducks that british officials said were inadvertently killed by the sloppy work of the russian operatives so donald trump sees these images of sick kids and dead ducks and he is furious with russia now back then that made sense after all u.k. media was reporting that 3 children had gone to the hospital after receiving bread from the scree palls and feeding it to ducks however this story fell apart the next day the children were fine they were not affected in any way and furthermore no ducks were harmed either there were no other casualties other than those previous he stated that no wildlife were impacted by the incident and no children were exposed to or became ill as a result of the incident so. exactly did the cia director showed it trump she showed donald trump images of horror that had nothing to do with the incident at

hand but here's another question why did it take so long to correct this correction was delayed because of the time needed for research the correction wasn't published for 2 entire months afterwards the initial article cited people briefed on the conversation whereas the new correction cited a person familiar with the intelligence time well spent kaleb up and r.t. new york in reaction to this threat the russian embassy in washington responded to the new york times correction and to criticize the length of time it took for the mistake to be addressed and also called for an end to disinform ation normal relations between russia and the us to be restored. the international monetary fund the i.m.f. has admitted it made mistakes in argentina managing director christine lagarde claimed on wednesday that the i.m.f. underestimated argentina's complicated economic situation the i.m.f. sin organization of 189 countries aimed at promoting international monetary
4:10 am
cooperation and facilitating international trade but the success of the measures taken to improve the economy of many countries lately not only argentina remains questionable as our senior correspondent the of explains. you've got to understand we're just people and people make mistakes you meet we might oversleep and be late to work likewise the i.m.f. just people but when these schools up there is tens of billions of dollars on the lives it was an incredibly complicated economic situation that many actors including us underestimated a bit when we started trying to help and put together together with the argentine authorities a program to deal with the most critical sectors of the economy put yourself in the i.m.f. shoes you were the absolute last resort of any country and there was a company of begging for help they're like addicts take argentina

a 3rd of the population lives below the poverty line g.d.p. in freefall down 6 percent last year joblessness hopelessness in the shadow of economic chaos but there's light at the end of the tunnel the i.m.f. shining with $50000000000.00 in loans with strings attached austerity to the bone budget cuts tax and terrified the usual stuff that makes miserable generations. this strike aims to reject the tears hike for public services transportation and above all to confront the adjustment policy of mary symmetry of the governess and the service of the program for international monetary fund that i'm going to make it easy for my recent mockery of all the next government because they still want to have a relationship with america we are willing to fight argentina is an old hand at

this making the same painful mistakes in 2001 they took an i.m.f. loan jaring an economic crisis as usual mistakes were made and the i.m.f. are just people then the crisis got a teeny bit worse. q nationwide riots the government collapsing and debt being defaulted on. with it and the i.m.f. are good people they had no problem admitting that everyone else messed up even worse than they did it would have been an ugly crisis anyway perhaps not quite as bad if the fund has supported a change in strategy earlier it isn't that mistakes are only made with tina the i.m.f. makes mistakes with everybody greece for example the economy wasn't restored jobs weren't created and the quote notable failure is the bull made made everything
4:13 am
worse and like argentina the greeks were also choked with masochistic levels of a stereotype. in south korea i.m.f. loans and fine print conditions ended up only increasing unemployment you know how people say that you should try everything once well i.m.f. loans really don't belong in that category. with the bolivia they did everything the i.m.f. told them to privatized water utilities and e.g. transport industry the need for everything to start going bankrupt and collapsing left and right and only when they chose to ignore all of the i.m.f. said vice the group coverage begin years of anger of suffering for nothing.
4:14 am
mistakes. before but now would come true with dignity oh you can only pose it had to be decided by the before but now we can make our own plan we had to ask the u.s. ambassador who had to go poses but know the politics no country is more democratic . see there's confusion misunderstanding about the point of i.m.f. loans few things if any actually improve mistakes made liberally the i.m.f. are just people as i mentioned no the real great thing about i.m.f. loans the amazing thing that nothing else in life can replace is the moment you pay them off internationally for a terribly and fundamentally free now that's a feeling that money can't buy the i.m.f. the world bank institutions like that make these sorts of mistakes and i put that
4:15 am
in quotation marks fairly often. most of the time when you look more closely you will understand that the mistake really wasn't a mistake so much as it was a desire to see this situation in such a way that the i.m.f. could participate and help the government that it supports the i.m.f. is really a kind of international economic appendage of the u.s. and its allies that control the i.m.f. and i believe the u.s. . was behind a lot of this. changing of the guard here with the right wing and ministrations in argentina and brazil ecuador in places like that so it's part of the u.s. policy political policy we're seeing the consequences of that good is also part of

the u.s. dollar policy interest rate policy and now the global economy and therefore us in the trade promises. 15 moscow time in the morning a saturday thanks for being with us coming up organizers of one of the biggest tournament in tennis have inadvertently read nights of debate over sexism in sport female tennis players at the french open have been forced to play a venue significantly smaller than for the man. games are great but we'll examine inequality in sport. seen this before in the eighty's with the rise of japan and the u.s. tatar response rejiggered the global currency markets that the plaza accord this is . the same people like a master plan for tension team after the crash of $1000.00. so china doesn't seem

a new president tomorrow it's the 1st time the central asian country will choose new leaders since the breakup of the soviet union and as he goes down off explains there's a lot at stake for the strategically important country and its neighbors. it hasn't happened since the fall of the soviet union it's a phrase you don't hear very often these days but it's mega relevant here in cannes extern and in its capital no soul done because the country prepares to enter a new chapter. russia will be passing a careful are you over this one most who has been on a quest of uniting the post soviet bloc economically kazakhstan is an integral part of this strategy especially in new zealand the eurasian economic union forward there was a personal friendship there too between vladimir putin and the former kazakstan leader not assault on those that are by at the same time he has always maintained a policy independent from more school and never recognized south a set or

a cause and there was silence on crimea so it looks to lose and plenty to gain because a capital has also played host to 11 rounds of the syria peace talks spearheaded by more schools which have been key to establishing dialogue between the assad government and the opposition so a lot rests on kazakhstan when it comes to international diplomacy to. and where's their doubts there's opportunity and that's the way nato and the u.s. will likely be viewing kazakstan right now there have been moves to integrate the country into closer realms of corp despite the nation being a nonmember of the military alliance russia has never shied away from letting nato know its feelings about expansion encroaching on its borders and kazakstan could yet be the camel with a few too many bales of straw the e.u.

leaving the females i mean finals inside courts women's tennis association blasted upmove than saying they deserved to play in the prestigious center court just like the men fall asleep looks at the driving forces in sport and sponsorship. the semifinal matches in the women's french open in tennis have been held away from same to court and at the same time now the organizers to frame a position they say that this allows for the maximum number of spectators to watch these equally prestigious games that some see it as the latest example in an industry that denounces female athletes what is tiring and what is really unfortunate in this more than anything is that women have to sit you know athletes female athletes they have to sit in different positions and have to justify their scheduling and their involvement in an event or their salary or their approach to need to use accusations of sexist tendencies in school i'll comment on the most
4:22 am
glaring lack of equal pay some say there's a logic behind the disparity in what the athletes it's a comparison we shouldn't even make female models earn more than male models and nobody says anything why because they have a larger following internists to whoever gathers a larger audience earns more it's not a particularly politically correct comment to make but it is best topped by facts like now here in france is the biggest women's sport ornament the female fifa world cup size money is what some $4000000.00 twice what it was back in 2015 but nearly 10 times less than what the winner of the males tournament receives view is of the women's world cup football still fall far short of the 3000000 of us that the menstruation horse is in 205750 1000000 people watched the women's games of record but it was still fall short of the men's numbers it's going to take

a long time if not for ever for attitudes to change. well no i don't like women's football it just doesn't fascinate me it's not how i want to see women but i will support the french team and hope they win against south korea and what's next you going to ask. to watch a boxing match between women in a rugby match i don't want to do that so. you can't make people like something they don't still big corporations know they can turn a nice profit by the need to new audiences they might not necessarily court day 5 of the l.t.v. community but they know that they can turn and i think that by appealing to this to even come off with a rainbow themed bottle of mouthwash and bad vices why do we get killed for it if one looks at the range of topics featuring 9 flags each representing a different section of the l.t.p. teaching community. blake is for a sexual so don't feel sexual attraction to anyone grace for great
