shown to president trump supposedly capturing the aftermath of the nerve agent attack. saturday evening at 7 here in moscow more name calling very welcome news from r.t. international 1st. video agency ruptly has obtained exclusive footage of whistleblower julian assange in london's belmarsh prison the video shows the wiki leaks founder chatting with fellow inmates the high security facility serving a 15 week sentence for skipping bail it's the 1st time images of a song of appeared since his arrest and removal from the ecuadorian embassy in london almost 2 months ago concerns have been mounting over his health in recent weeks after he failed to appear before a court at the end of may by a video link for a hearing on possible extradition to the united states the un special rapporteur on torture has condemned the treatment saying the publisher has been abused persecuted

meltzer has been talking to america the full interview as later this saturday. what we've seen now during my visit was already alarming and what we have seen since then is. health has dramatically deteriorated as predicted by a psychiatrist the company my visit what would can happen obviously in a problem of this is that it will have a reversible damage 1st on the on the psychological emotional level but then also on the physical level it can lead to nervous breakdowns or even actually then to cardiovascular. damage that is no longer reversible julian assange is now awaiting his next extradition hearing which is scheduled for next wednesday he's wanted by washington on charges of soliciting and publishing classified u.s. government information if extradited and found guilty he could face a prison sentence of up to 175 years says he doubts assad will be granted due

process in the u.s. . 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 for trial certainly generally requires a presumption of innocence now i don't have to explain to you what is the public opinion about the jewel in our stance in the us after almost a decade of under restraints i would say public more being you know intimidation calls for his assassination and including by you know serving officials and former officials it's 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 would be protected under i believe it's the 1st amendment of the us constitution under the freedom of press and freedom of expression. the new york to. times has acknowledged had misreported on the screwball poisoning story last year involving a former russian spy and his daughter in england 2 months ago the newspaper wrote that cia director gina house wanted shown president trump images of dead ducks and ill children allegedly from the scene of the attack but the british authorities denied the fallout affected either the animals or the children and i'm open to why it took the new york times so long to issue a correction. here remember when the new york times dropped a bombshell about how gina haskell the cia director had convinced donald trump to send russian diplomats packing in response to the screwball 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 over 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 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 hall's 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 show. had gone to the hospital after receiving bread from the screen paul's 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 previously stated no wildlife were impacted by the incident and no children were exposed to or became ill as a result of the incident so what exactly did the cia director show to 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. r.t. new york here's how the russian embassy in washington responded to the new york times correction it criticized the length of time it took for the mistake to be addressed and said a real correction would be a return to normal relations between russia and the united states. the international monetary fund the i.m.f. has admitted it made mistakes in argentina managing director christine lagarde claims they underestimated the country's complicated economic situation the i.m.f. is an organization with $189.00 member countries they have to promoting cooperation and facilitating in international trade but its track record of revitalizing national economies not only argentina doesn't have many success stories as our senior correspondent when i got now explains. you've got to understand we're just people and people make mistakes you meet we might oversleep 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 lie it was an incredibly complicated economic situation that many actors including us underestimated a bit when we started trying to help them 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 are the absolute last resort of any country and those 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. and free fall 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 and to reject it tears hard for public services transportation and above all to confront the just man policy of mary symmetry of the governess and the service of the program for international monetary fund not that i'm going to make it easy for motorists or mockery of the next government because these 2 want to have a relationship with that 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. and the i.m.f. a good people they had no problem admitting that everyone alex 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 faily is the bull made made everything 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 that

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 suffering for nothing. mistakes. we used to beg before but now would country with dignity oh economic pose it had to be decided by the i.m.f. before but now we can make our own plan we had to ask the u.s. ambassador to go polish this but now the poetics in our country is more democratic

. see there's confusion misunderstanding about the point of i.m.f. loans few things if any actually improve mistakes are made liberally the i.m.f. are just people as i mentioned know 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. and that the world bank institutions like that make these sorts of mistakes and i put that in quotation marks surely 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 the u.s. . was behind a lot of this. changing of the guard here with the right right wing the ministrations in argentina and nerve brazil ecuador and places like that so it's part of u.s. policy political policy was seen the consequences of that good is also part of the u.s. dollar policy interest rate policy and now the global economy. and there for us a trade policy. protest is a conducting the 30th consecutive weekend of anti-government protests in paris with demonstrations being held across france this saturday police have used tear gas to

extern and in its capital no soul done because the country prepares to enter a new chapter but why should you care while apparently there's plenty of reasons why. 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 and kazakhstan is an integral part of this strategy especially in moving 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 biased 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 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 kazakstan when it comes to international diplomacy to. and whereas there doubt 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. has interests here too currently kazakstan as largest trade partner but a change in power could see change in direction east to another pretty big neighbor . i'm talking about china of course and beijing could be

in for a treat here kazakstan has been pushing to increase its weight in asia seeking an alliance with china the race itself has a clear favorites because sims are marked the kif he is a flowing chinese speaker so it is likely that kazakhstan will move to tighten its corporation with beijing but until monday it's all just speculation and when these 1st results 1st decisive results come in it really will be a 1st since u.s.s.r. amigas done of reporting from mosul ton and kazakhstan r.t. . fans labor minister has said it's socially acceptable for women to be told to wear high heels of the workplace on professional grounds as after a petition against gender based discrimination was filed raising the good old debate to wear or not to wear. middle.
