a glimpse into ricky leaks founder julian assange has a life in a high security prison in london our video agency ruptly has obtained exclusive footage. the international monetary fund admits mistakes were made when trying to resuscitate argentina's economy saying it failed to tackle the country's underlying problems r t delves into the decades of errors made by the i.m.f. . and the new york times backtracks on its reporting on the poisoning case in the

u.k. for almost 2 months the paper failed to correct an article about disturbing pictures shown to president trump supposedly capturing the aftermath of a nerve agent attack. well whether you're watching an interlock in michigan or however we sparked your interest this is art international and we are certainly glad to have you with us. all right artie's 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 in the high security facility where he is serving a 50 week sentence for skipping bail it is the 1st time images of assad have appeared since his arrest and removal from the ecuadorian embassy in london almost 2 months ago concerns have been mounting over his health and recent weeks after he failed to appear before court at the end of may via video link for

a hearing on possible extradition to the us the united nations special report tour on torture mills meltzer has condemned assad as treatment over the years saying the publisher has been abused and persecuted. what we've seen now during my visit was already alarming and what we have seen since then that that his state of health has dramatically deteriorated as predicted psychiatrist the comping 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 joined us and she is now awaiting his next extradition hearing which is scheduled

for wednesday he is 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 once again here is neil's meltzer. 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 your 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 serving officials and former officials it's very difficult for him to get. unbiased impartial court hearing the fair trial also requires 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 would be protected under i believe it's the 1st amendment of the us constitution under the freedom of press and freedom of expression. new york times has acknowledged it did miss reported 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 haskell had shown president trump images of dead ducks and sick children allegedly from the scene of the attack yet british authorities deny the fall out had affected the animals or children are to scale up and looks at why it took the paper so long to issue a correction. you're 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 and earlier version of this article in correctly described the photos the jena house bill 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 poles 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 screen 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 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. 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. r c new york. the russian embassy in washington has 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 us. the international monetary fund has admitted it made mistakes in argentina damaging director christine or sorry managing director christine lagarde claims that they underestimated the country's complicated economic situation after taking full control of buenos aires fiscal policies forcing the public to bear the brunt of

severe austerity the i.m.f. is an organization with $189.00 member countries aimed at promoting cooperation and facilitating international trade but it's trying to record of revitalizing it national economies not only in argentina is not exactly overflowing with success stories as our correspondent brought gazi of comments. 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 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 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. 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 and to reject it tears hard for public services transportation and above all to confront the just man policy of every symmetry of the governance and the service of the program for international monetary fund 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 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 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. of 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. it was just a bad before but now we're country with dignity oh you can only 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 . it seems 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 and ministrations in argentina the nerve brazil ecuador and places like that so it's

part of u.s. policy political policy i was seeing the consequences of that one is also part of the u.s. dollar policy interest rate policy and now the global economy. and there for us to try promised. the lawyer of a russian investigative journalist charged in moscow with drugs possession and intent to supply says the reporter has been mistreated while in custody the attorney also says he will appeal to the european court of humanitarian rights concerning the conditions of the journalists or. eve on the a reporter for the news website medusa has been placed under house arrest until early august or until his case is heard in court his case has caused outrage among many journalist groups in russia as the journalist himself claims he was framed golden off. believes excuse me he was targeted due to his investigation into

possible corruption links between russia authorities and the funeral businesses around 300 people gathered outside the court to support him. it's difficult it feels like a movie i never thought that i'd be at my own funeral thank you very much to all of you. but the rest of the do as a correspondent yvonne going over was released from hospital where he underwent multiple medical examinations doctors say he suffered no serious trauma going over was detained on thursday after officers said they found drugs in his possession as well as scales and more drugs in his moscow apartment he was then charged with attempting to sell them around the same time as he was sent to hospital but he claims he was beaten in custody and refused a lawyer which the police reject in both cases now convinced of his innocence is the online newspaper that cullen of works for they were posted his lawyers statements suggesting that the drugs were planted on him and also mentioning that

he received many threats throughout his journalistic career for his work however the police claim his arrest was not random he but connected to a wider investigation into a drug ring and moscow. open titian has circulated throughout the internet calling for gold in those immediate release over 55000 people have signed it including high profile journalists and russian media in the end the court decided to play scotland all of under house arrest so many people are still waiting to see with bated breath what will happen next. because it's for you but you know this is not a victory. for it has saved his life and he's the only reason is there is no going on. when your cousin mexico has agreed. with the trumpet ministration to take unprecedented measures against the flow of migrants heading into the u.s. more that after a short break this is international. what

politicians do. they put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and should. want to. have to go right to be press this is like a 3 in the morning can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters about how. things should. agree has long positioned itself as a sovereign player within the e.u. it can stand up to brussels and put its foot delane when it comes to its own national interests but when it comes to dealing with the trumpet ministration is the government just as ready to put hungary 1st.

international protesters are conducting their 3rd consecutive weekend of anti-government protests in paris with demonstrations being held across france police have used tear gas to disperse the crowds estimated in the hundreds last weekend turnout was at its lowest since the movement started in november last year the french interior ministry said around $1500.00 marched through paris on june 1st the protests were triggered by a hike in fuel taxes and have since turned into a nation. wide anti-government demonstrations.

switching gears now mexico has agreed to take what it calls busy unprecedented measures to stem the flow of migrants into the united states in exchange washington will scrap of the tariffs it was planning to impose on imports of mexican goods president donald trump took to twitter on friday to laud of the agreement. mexico will try very hard and if they do that this will be a very successful agreement for both the united states and mexico terry scheduled to be implemented by the u.s. on monday against mexico are hereby indefinitely suspended mexico in turn has agreed to take strong measures to stem the tide of migration through mexico and to our southern border. the us 1st threatened to impose a 5 percent import tax on all mexican goods last week that was due to come into effect of this coming monday had warned that the rate would then gradually increase

until it reached 25 percent the prospect of sweeping tariffs led almost immediately to the mexican authorities adopting tougher border controls on thursday alone thousands of migrants from central america were stopped in just a few miles into mexican territory mexico's president underestimated well lopez obrador had previously struck a very different tone in including on the campaign trail. onor the neighbors the united states government would want us to do the dirty work by blocking migrants from central america who. want to have a relationship a read to rate it a friendship with the people and with the government of the united states this is our position the u.s. authorities president trump the ball behaved very well because they have not closed dialogue. in addition to restricting migration northwards donald trump says mexico has also agreed to buy more american agricultural products the deal is being seen

by some as an attempt by the u.s. president to galvanize his support base and fulfill campaign promises was he it. was a government and policy commentator guadalupe cabrera called the threat of terrifying piece of political theater by the white house. this is the electoral times i mean from here to the election when you have less and when you don't have we're going to have these type of spectacles that would say. it was not credible that the president of the united states would impose tariffs on mexico it was very important that mexico in the end was pressured to negotiate a deal with the united states that was there in several with our threat that was not credible mexico already already fall into the same truck and and they're going to continue all that you're going to be using that continuously to do whatever she

wants to do when she's going to go down in the polls he's going to play the game again mexico has to put the line right away if they don't want to be at the political peanuts of of the of a president that seeking reelection. one of the biggest tennis tournaments of the french open has been caught up in a sexism storm roland garos organizers said forecasts of bad weather meant of a played both women's semifinals simultaneously and away from center court women's tennis association blasted the move saying quote they deserve to play on the prestigious center court like the men are 2 balls clear dives a little deeper. these semifinal matches in week women's french open in tennis have been held away from same to court and at the same time now the organizers to frame the position they say that this allows for the maximum number of spectators to

watch these equally prestigious games but some see it as the latest example in an industry that denounces female athlete 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 the accusations of success tendencies in school. i'll comment on the most 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 white now here in france is the biggest women's sport ornament the female fifa world cup size money is worth 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 sweet 1000000000 new us that the menstruation pulls in 2750000000 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 women's for them oh 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 me to watch a boxing match between women than 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 feeding to new audiences they might not necessarily support the

day 5 l.t.v. teach immunity but they know that they can turn a knob but by appealing to this to even come off with a rainbow themed bottle of mouthwash and budweisers even widely ridiculed for its limited range of cups featuring 9 flags each with the same to a different section of the l.g.b. teach you to unity. black is for a sexual says don't feel sex. drags them to a new one grace for great a sexual sometimes feel sexual attraction and demo site shows only feel it if they know someone well white know it's a sexual alwis and purple represents the whole community so don't worry if female sports fans with more viewership and hope the most and you see can have a share of dumb commercials they support and notch prize money because corporations are not faith says that nothing when a phobia makes just one. policy not seen paris. or that doesn't mean more

i determine that you're the one. who did it. so i'm going to move into the

police officers in the united states is causing controversy across the country. created in the sixty's by the private company john reed this method has gone on to influence most of the interrogation techniques taught in american police academies it involves 9 different stages leading from confrontation to spoken confession to a final written confession this technique has allegedly compelled thousands of innocent people to confess to crimes that they did not commit interrogations should be conducted in a non supportive environment we want to get the person on our territory away from his or her own surroundings the interrogation room should be quiet private free of any outside distractions or noises. so please. remember what. i don't know they tell these interrogators that you can tell whether someone is guilty by looking at them and listening to what they say that confirms their belief
