that. the president says it is just a matter of time before his country launches a military operation on the syrian. something has described as the worst case scenario. describing them pays a visit to the song in jail and call on the u.k. government to stop his extradition to the u.s. and made concerns about the health of the wiki leaks founder. easy exhibiting saw him sort of disorientation. he did tell us about being kept in severe oscillation and ongoing loss a lot of that aside the u.s. house of representatives speaker nancy pelosi warns europe of the security risk of working with the us fail to mention her own reported role in the mass u.s.

surveillance including on the leaders we ask people in new york and london whether they think china is the biggest spy threat in the us. probably to us both of us anybody having. access to our data. hello good evening 9 o'clock here in moscow you're watching r.t. international turkey's president says it is arnie a matter of time until he launches a military operation in the syrian province of a blip and claims he's been dissatisfied by talks with russia on the situation. this human soul going to go. to sleep has made all kinds of preparations to implement its operational plan and as in every operation we see we can come suddenly one night to put it more clearly operation is now
1:02 pm
a matter of time we will not leave to the regime that still does not understand our country's determination in this matter and to those who encourage it we never intend to shoulder the burden that the developments of this region police on our country. is currently on an offensive in trying to drive by armed militants and islamists from the province moscow says that turkey has failed to separate the moderate opposition from terrorists there as the last rebel bastion standing in syria and home to a number of militants put it shows a turkish military convoy crossing the syrian border a large line of tanks armored vehicles and supply trucks are reportedly moving towards the outskirts of. joy neil harvey to explain this sudden escalation occurred. the situation on the ground remains very dramatic terrorist activity there is very high and you have to remember it's a bar street and in syria's north home to up to 3000000 people including civilians
1:03 pm
and they're very often used by terrorist as a human shield it's clear for everybody that actions are needed urgently to protect these people from the other hand the attacks by turkey backed armed forces based in egypt against the syrian army continue and these also should be stopped and countering that is something what damascus military operation on the ground in basically a ad and it's not that mr out of the gun is not happy with how things develop on the ground no one is in fact happy if no one. is to blame for the situation that's a really good question but it depends on who you ask both sides are blaming each other we hear from russia and its position is quite clear remains the. same the turkish military operation on the syrian soil that's another state you have to remember that would be the worst case scenario and we heard that from president spokesperson earlier on wednesday dmitry peskov and russia's foreign minister
1:04 pm
sergey lavrov also commented on mr gun statement in the similar way. to separate militants from terrorists in the timeframe on the 2018 agreement at the same time provocations from the. shilling of the syrian armed forces civilian targets and the russians have continued not really the syrian armed forces reaffirming their commitment to the original liberal greens including cease fire agreements respond to such an acceptable provocations and we support them in this what mr lover of is talking about is last year so to agreements that turkey and russia came to this is when both sides were equally happy and satisfied and according to these agreements it's turkish responsibility too i repeated again to separate so-called like hardline terrorists and islam is based in and so-called moderate opposition and talk to that and force them believe of these area
1:05 pm
and it hasn't been done properly it hasn't been achieved never so it's in turkey it's turkish responsibility so turkey is failing 1st the russian standpoint how does turkey see the situation while turkey is very clear turkey is accusing most and damascus of escalating the situation of. agreements and this is the turkish president just recently. the syrian regime as well as the russian forces in iran backed militants acting within an ad lib continuously attacking civilians committing massacres and causing bloodshed. and we hear that despite numerous talks that turkish and russian sides have been having in the last days in clue. didn't between foreign and defense minister is so it's really interesting why the gun changed so dramatically he's a brass or a good twit can remember that somehow ironically klein sided with
1:06 pm
a dramatic shift in ankara washington relations with sanctions lifted with mr paul as the police say that america is ready to stand by its nato ally and mr trump openly and directly backing at the guns actions in syria had a very good job or say shit with president carter was i respect him we have a very good relationship yes i agree he's a tough guy but we have a very good relationship i see you do better with the people but the fact is that he's fighting audit led he doesn't want people to be killed by the thousands and hundreds of thousands let it go be about that and other reasons but we spoke about it live and we're working together watching walking with what we hear is something new for mr trump for mr they're gone both america and turkey changed their raft the rick and it's not helping things on the ground well the director of the case crisis research institute mark almond does believe it will be the syrian refugees who pay
1:07 pm
the price for any confrontation. could have drawn russia and turkey into a war because the russian force is on the side of the syrians in combating the local rebels and turkey if you can intervene would clearly be taking the side of the rebels and in order to do that it would have to provide protection for its forces from the air it would have to use its own air force its own anti-aircraft missiles which would put at risk russian airplanes we would be back if you like to the crisis situation of 2015 when the turks shot down a russian aircraft. so it's potentially very dangerous situation even if we don't go that far that's the worst case even if we just get to a case where the turkish forces increase our true bombardment of the syrians the situation on the ground which is often discussed as a humanitarian crisis will get worse for the refugees because i'll be trapped between 2 lines of fire rather than just one so it very very messy situation and i
1:08 pm
think president of the worms rather capricious personality is really the unknown factor is he just barking or would he bite and if he's going to bite then the risk of things spiralling out of control is really the. now the new some a strain m.p.'s have called on the u.k. government to stop genus and use extradition to the u.s. that is after they visited the co-founder isn't a stray national in the prison but he's being held the head of an extradition hearing. police are beyond belief that someone who is a right not isolation so greatly. should be rewarded by facing extradition and sitting down so to speak in one county and could act. very closely at the height of. arrogance and at the behavior of destroying government one of the lawmakers george christiansen says there are signs his health is
1:09 pm
a serious concern. spike in this wake with professor nils mels of the u.n. special repertory on torture. come to the opinion the along with a number of medical experts that julian assange was exhibiting the symptoms of psychological torture visited julian assange. and are going to cite is nothing that are sore that actually. discredited what those doctors and what mills melzer said he is exhibiting saw ends of disorientation. he did tell us about being kept in severe or solution and ongoing a solution a good aside technically within belmarsh prison the conditions of the subject to apparently. but when you kept by yourself 20 to 22 it was a guy with that minimal human contact you're effectively ocelot it so all of that
1:10 pm
has led to a guess at the plated state of health for julian a songe and i don't think it's fair or told to extradite an australian citizen. at of one foreign country into another foreign country to face charges for what for reporting on the facts doctors around the world have both are condemned the u.k.'s handling of the case one for the songes being subjected to psychological torture in jail more than $100.00 medics signed the joint letter urging authorities to take action they also called on the struggling government to intervene to protect its citizens is the 4th such letter from. meanwhile inmates at belmarsh prison have also shown us a poor petition for signs to be transferred from the hospital wing to one dedicated to the fifty's that's according to wiki leaks editor in chief he will denies with the don't extradite is songe campaign john reese who visited the journalist says if
1:11 pm
extradited a songe won't be able to face any jury. we're subway away from julian reaching the goal where we will or will not be extra to the united states but he certainly shouldn't be extradited to the united states are worthy to be extradited he would fight him so of. a court of a very special car in a. year it's the so-called s. with court where the u.s. state has never lost an espionage case where the jurors are chosen for a population pool 80 percent of whom work for the pentagon the national security council or the cia so he's going to go probably a court in this country where there's no jury to a court in the united states where there's a better europe so i think the only chance you house of justice is to be set free before you actually go to. the us presidential candidate michael bloomberg will
1:12 pm
sell his media empire if he becomes president yet announcement came ahead of the latest round of the democratic debate being held on wednesday night in las vegas bloomberg will for the 1st time face his rivals who've been crying foul over the billionaire spending on campaign a 3rd isthmus it is estimated that bloomberg a splash that more than $400000000.00 on television radio and online advertising and that is 10 times more than current party front runner bernie sanders done from spent around $325000000.00 on his whole 2016 campaign earlier i discussed the issue with the legal analyst jennifer dim astern the potential presidential candidate our border and also political analyst dakota larry. if i could start with you. says that bloomberg is buying is that a fair comment i do think it's a fair comment even if you look at the rules that the d.n.c.
1:13 pm
has instituted this is a complete change of what they've done so far this complete you know this late runners coming into their campaign spending $400000000.00 with perhaps he's spending so much money and so that he can make up for the fact that he doesn't have any real grassroots support but i think it definitely amounts to vote buying it's not so problematic that bloomberg of spending money on his own campaign the bigger problem is the d.n.c. what rules is the democratic national committee democratic national committee making with superdelegates and with everything else because the way the d.n.c. seems to be operating is that you're allowed to run for president play if you have the money or if we at least approve of you it's not against bloomberg it's not it's not his fault that he's need to spend this kind of money because that's the way campaigns are the bloomberg campaigns views would be massively unpopular with a lot of the democratic base and a lot of the american people and by fixating on this sort of minor non issue i mean in politics you ought to spend as much of your own money as you want to by trying
1:14 pm
to get people to fixate on this non issue the bloomberg campaign is effectively distracting america from the positions that bloomberg holds that are at odds with the majority of both the democratic base and the american people this is a very unpopular person with very unpopular opinions according to the democratic party base and also the general population he's polling you know i haven't seen one poll where he's polling above 5 percent this is really showing the corruption of the d.n.c. what there is nothing illegal about what he's doing but i think really that's part of the larger indictment of the american political system more than anything else as well as the rules of the d.n.c. as has been stated that this is an indictment that was a perfect description of the american political system of course you can look at the republican party a lot of republican candidates had a. a lot of money back in 2016 and yes donald trump spent his own he was not favored to when he was not going to when hillary clinton had tons of funding between hollywood between lots and lots of billionaire billionaires so the american
1:15 pm
people could still vote but that also raises the question when there are lots of different candidates within one party like we're seeing with the d.n.c. and i think the american people deserve to see who the candidates are and what their actual viewpoints are and how they stand on things democrats and republicans they control the presidential debates they change the the commission on presidential big debates has changed the debate the rush old the do everything they can to keep 3rd parties and independents out of the debates and you can see this in the way that they mistreat any candidate that opposes a massive military overage so they've shut out sanders gabbert all the 3rd party candidates who oppose it the united states is definitely an oligarchy and i think that most of the people of the united states know this a lot of these people who voted for obama and that are voting for trump but both of these people received plenty of money from fossil fuel companies from banking institutions from financial institutions from all these different entities but in a true oligarchy not much has been done about it still ahead for the u.s.
1:16 pm

1:21 pm
reaction from hallway usa you can watch the interview in full. is a taste. was interesting the u.s. government says that the declassified the information so we welcome the opportunity to see what the evidence is but we really have to look at this in the broader context of the ongoing geo political dynamic between the u.s. and china the u.s. has some major issues with china and right now the u.s. wants to hurt china so badly that they're going to hurt america in trying to her way and that's really a shame you look back some years ago when i brought snowden revealed information about the u.s. program prism and about the 5 year campaign of the u.s. government to spy on operation shop giant where they monitored all why not work for 5 years and could not find any improper communications and in the prism program they found that the u.s. government used for example cisco equipment to spy around the world most recently the washington post crypto 8 g. a swiss company that turned out is controlled by the cia so they've been monitoring encrypted communications of all the countries in the world except for china. rush
1:22 pm
