yes the records. the most vulnerable are abandoned on the streets to become the invisible clocks. in our exclusive wiki leaks confirms the authenticity of a recording that could spin the narrative on julian assange on trade shows the whistleblower did it try to prevent not facilitate the release of thousands of the sensitive u.s. cables it is claimed the courts knew about the tape when deciding on his extradition to america. this is evidence that you went through this is. not new to the courts in the u.k. transcript all through this conversation was presented to the court in september. also with covered 1000 cases creeping closer to 3000000 in russia experts say the

infections are reaching a plateau as the country ready for a week 3 of its mass vaccination programs. in top british lawmaker faces a backlash after saying unicef should be ashamed of a quote political stunt as the charity organization aims to put food on the table for vulnerable children this christmas. direct from our studios in moscow this is our 2 international i'm sean thomas certainly glad to have you with us right now the head of wiki leaks has confirmed the authenticity of a recording that could be a game changer for julian assange says it could put the brakes on his extradition to the united states the audio seems to prove the whistleblower in fact tried to warn the u.s. state department about a mass breach of classified information back in 2011 and appears it to be in stark

contrast to washington's claims that his son wanted to endanger lives this was what christian reference and told us in an exclusive interview. this evidence that you heard and i can confirm that this is authentic is not new to the courts in the u.k. transcript of for this conversation was presented to the court in september well this should have a tremendous weight because it supposedly throws out the argument that is in the narrative for the justice department in their indictment and which they are trying to use there to get a much of a lovely u.k. they were talking about irresponsible behavior and putting lives at risk following these revelations more than 400000 people around the world have already signed a petition calling on u.s. officials to drop the charges against a songe politicians and activists want donald trump to pardon him before he leaves office in january and he's asking taylor reports. public enemy number one

a man with no conscience no morals no remorse judean a solemn child's been smeared as a villain who revealed the ugly face of u.s. foreign policy but i would argue that is closer to being the high tech terrorist this disclosure is not just an attack on america's foreign policy interests it is an attack on the international community wiki leaks walks like a hostile intelligence service and talks like a hostile intelligence service but sarge is a narcissist who has created nothing of value here lies on the dirty work of others to make himself famous he is a fraud a coward hiding behind a screen 10 years that narrative ron but is it all about to change is it actually the whistleblower was more concerned about the collateral damage of his exposé than washington that sells a new t released tapes reveal a song to tempted to warn the u.s. state department and then boss had to reclaim 10 back in 2011 not only does it seem

she had to mold the cools she went as far as this key has to answer for what he has done so what was the motive for helping a firestorm was coming in the form of a rogue wiki leaks employee online. i think over time. because. it came. on cable news. spread around. to. the degree that. we believe we've. become public. to some possibility. so no right can see dropping a political bombshell standing back and watching it burn as we've been told is easy it is to schedule. traitor

a treasonist i'm not for the death penalty so if i'm not for the death i don't want to do it illegally shoot the shot of a piece done a great discredit to this nation should be assassinated you should be treated as an enemy combatant with you it should be closed down permanently and decisively no instead we hear a song trying to protect those and washington the very same who now want to send him down so life. having. people out of your incidents or north. korea have been calling. to end the embassy. every day trying to train. hold back its store to the wiki leaks at its even advise the state department to tell anyone why the encrypted files could be allegedly found and also help to remove them a decade on a song just sitting in london's belmarsh prison waiting to hear whether he'll be extradited to the us to face

a potential 175 yes sentence that's a hell of a sentence for someone who tried to warn the very top of what was coming so is it any wonder now that cools a mounting for president trump to pardon the whistleblower on hoping that he will pardon julian assange it's the right thing to do donald trump since you're given pardons to people please consider pardoning those who at great personal sacrifice expose the deception and criminality of those in the deep state mr president if you grown so you want to act of clemency during your time in office please free julian assange those you alone can save his life you don't know trump can save julie and encourage brave activists rolled worries time and timing is everything it's change the image of a modest who was cost out as a trade and without running out for donald trump's presidency i'm on wiki leaks but to replace him in the white house this could be the last chance for america to pop

. an unfit give a man who wanted to save washington from its shame time is of the essence for a sonorous to avoid a life in jail the assistance was offered to to to stop this or mitigate any and it possible harm to this i have no idea why this was not followed through and it took up the offer. to help the julian was was carefully and considerably. worried in altering to say the problem the state department never came back to julian for more information and seem to have not done anything based on his warning we spoke to journalists activists and former diplomats about these latest developments. they've built a case around. the claim that he's a loose cannon that he's not a journalist this obviously throws that out the window because it shows he was doing his stooge ill gentz to as he's always claimed to have done. but you know it

doesn't change the american government's attitude it's i will be astounded if trump has the guts to pardon and drop the church or drop the charges against him which i suppose he could actually order his. department of justice to do still lame duck president a lot of people have commented in reply had no idea they thought the julian injured america. recklessly believed the lies john the heat in the middle 3 years. and i guess hearing julian speaking as a young boy and hearing him basically pleading with the state department to help him help them help people really changed a lot of people i think very pleased. hope and hoping that it gets a chance because i don't see how he could possibly hear that and continue this political

persecution remember of course that the. people are very pressing for extradition and doing this and jim pederson for. to be prosecuted for espionage for the crime of being a journalist the people who want that's exactly the same people who who were testing before us now should get narrative. so donald trump has a powerful motive. to go against those people and to and to come to their influence so i'm not without hope that donald trump will issue a pardon julian was not the 1st person to releases and. and it was already on dozens of websites in twitter obviously the guardian party that asked where it gets the files and then they ended up only prosecuting julian julian is the only

one that. he's the only one he's currently sitting in. while dozens of other people published it or eat it what sense does it make it's you allow the 1st 99 people of the free and hunnish 100 birds is that it's been the democrats that are angriest at him because of you know the clinton capes that he released. and. you know the the prosecution of the war under obama. it was. certainly had the ability to to pardon him or drop the charges really it's dropping the charges because he has no found guilty of anything. and that could have been done with as you know a stroke of a pen any time by obama and he never did it nobody actually was harmed by the leaks and in the end of the earth that's quite an important thing to state the chances of

the legal process in the end going against you in the very limited time and i think the grounds for extradition is for a political offense and it does excluded by the u.k. u.s. extradition treaty and i think it will be knocked down by a higher court in the u.k. the worst sent to the united states i think in a very obvious attack on the 1st amendment implied in using the espionage act against a journalist would get it knocked down in the higher courts and in america so the ultimate legal i'm not too concerned about the problem is the terrible terrible conditions julian has been kept in in in a maximum security jail alongside terrorists. additions amounting to 2 inches. which is a problem. the latest now on the covert 900 situation here in russia this friday 28000 new cases have been confirmed it takes of the total number of

infections in the country to almost 3000000 in the meantime the rollout of the sputnik vaccine is almost into week 3 and from monday journalists and transport workers in the capital will be among the next in line to receive it here is wrong because of with more number of cases here to russian capsule remains very high however a group of scientists from the st petersburg state university and nouns that the pandemic already peaked in the russian capital this week now they supported the claim with their own mathematical model created to predict the spread of a covert 19 the situation in st petersburg remains alarmingly. local health officials only 4 percent of hospital beds that were earmarked for cold with 1000 patients remain vacant and that means that the hospitals are almost filled to capacity now the situation is certainly different throughout the country president

putin's spokesperson trip this call for said earlier that at the moment there are no plans for a complete lockdown in russia while the head of state himself he admits to country having some issues with a pandemic but everything is under control this have a listen. when you go to work because those you know health care system in any country was prepared for it our system proved to be more or less efficient we are aware of issues that we've had and we are dealing with them the pandemic required closing down some facilities and production unemployment has been on the rise and incomes unfortunately have been going down this is not just empty talk we know how to make it better russia was the 1st country in the world to come up with and start producing its own vaccine it's 95 percent effective not a single serious case of side effects foreign colleagues are ready to work with us now the russian president also announced earlier that in addition to sputnik the

end a.p. vaca rhona other vaccines are now in development meanwhile russia is now in 2 weeks where people can get inoculated against the corona virus and speaking about moscow in particular for more than 15000 people who are vaccinated at one of 17 dedicated places in the russian capital mayor of the city sergei said but instead that a 1000000 more citizens may get their call the children are starting on monday december 21st now inoculation is currently limited to people in the 18 to 60 age group and those people who are older will also get their vaccine however that will happen a little bit later. one of the most devastating effects of the covert 1000 pandemic has been people falling below the poverty line in the u.k. the house of commons leader is facing a backlash over comments made about

a unicef program to feed poor families in britain jacob aris mog said the u.n. agency which usually provides disaster relief should be ashamed of what he called a political stunt the charity is working to make sure the children have food on the table this christmas during the hard hitting coronavirus pandemic the rules that unicef should be playing politics in this way when it is meant to be looking off to people in the poorest the most deprived countries in the world where people are starving whether from it whether civil wars and they make political points of this kind giving i think 25000 pounds to one council it is a political stunt. well unicef recently launched a wide ranging program aimed at tackling food insecurity it will be granting over $700000.00 pounds to community groups all over the u.k. the organization is also helping feed children in an underprivileged borough of london giving out food parcels and assuring $25000.00 breakfasts are distributed to

schools there the campaign has put a spotlight on food poverty in the u.k. considered one of the wealthiest countries in the world now according to unicef children in 20 percent of all u.k. households could be going hungry and an estimated 2400000 children live in so-called food insecure homes free school meal programs have seen huge numbers of families signed up unicef has defended its decision to provide humanitarian help to children in the u.k. for the 1st time ever. unicef u.k. is responding to this some press tented crisis and building on our 25 years experience of working on children's rights in the u.k. with a one off domestic response launched a notice to provide support to vulnerable children and families around the country during this crisis period earlier we spoke with the founder of the largest independent food bank in the u.k. who says the government's handling of the poverty crisis has been unacceptable. i

think the reality is the government's own figures show that in britain 4.5 children get 1000000 children get free school meals and before the pandemic the government's own figures confirmed 12000000 people in britain a word in poverty i think what unicef and don his of course given some money to people in britain and britain is one of the great generous countries in the world for giving money so it's only just right that when our people are in crisis that unicef gives us some cash by the scandal is we have a government that keeps pussy footing around the real crisis or brush it i'm not spit 15000 people 15000000 people in the 1st 6 richest economy on the planet going hungry and that's not acceptable we should be leading a global campaign to end poverty not pussyfooting around it we now feeding so many people we can hardly cope it's not something that we can just depend anymore on our government our government around the world are all tied up with the pandemic trying

to get people safe and stop people dying letting people go hungry is not a priority and so we as people and we as communities need to take back power and politicize it in a way but we can eradicate the problems. coming up patients to literally parked up in ambulances because of a shortage of hospital beds and that's the situation in northern ireland which is battling against the pandemic details after a short break this is our international. because there is this huge gusher of money printing bedsteads coming out of the central banks and because tesla has nothing working against it because it's not.

producing anything like the taiyo to or a ford or some other company where you could look at the actual products in a meaningful context of the global economy and ascribe a value to it you can simply say that well we think that tesla is a mean boy just mostly i mean. money isn't me so we're going to make it worth $600000000000.00 today and it could be worth it could drop 90 percent tomorrow. join me every 1st lady on the alex i'm i'm sure i'll be speaking to guest of the world the olympics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then.

from actresses are to international now sports a top court has cut russia's ban from all major sporting events from doping offenses from 4 years to 2 and says that the country's athletes will only be able to compete as neutrals however russia's olympic chief says still believe that the punishment is too harsh. this is we do not welcome the decision to partially satisfy world then to doping agency's claim and deprive russia 19 oping agency of its compliance status with the world anti-doping code our position is initially based on the fact that there are no grounds for any full or partial punishment for sata and consequently any sanctions against the participants of the case we believe that in this part of the court did not fully take into account the presented dark humans everyone is so used to sanctions against russia as a whole this is no surprise i would not like to be categorical but in general this

is abnormal it is necessary to punish but cities are not sent to prison for the crimes of a few here and the whole country has been punished because someone stumbled. it's an ambiguous story in general this decision was predictable but this is not for us to decide sports politics is such that few have inside information about what is happening at the top and therefore we were only in the process of waiting but the rough picture was clear it was clear that an attack was under way on russian sport so it would hardly be allowed to play under our flag but i am glad that there was no complete dismissal of the ban that means that no russian flag or anthem at international sporting events until the end of 2022 and that includes the next summer and winter olympics and football world cup but as our does they have comment there still could be twists and turns to come. in what may be described as a remarkably anticlimactic conclusion the court of arbitration for sport refrained

from an outright ban then watered down waters recommended participant after years of scandal and accusations bickering and petty insults the duping xavier is over for now russia which categorically denied allegations of state assisted duping wanted all restrictions lifted but instead must settle for 2 years rather a 4 year battle during this period it could neither host nor be the major sporting tournament's its flag a national anthem will also be bad but clean russian athletes lot involved in the doping scandal will be allowed to participate at the olympics the collective punishment clause that someone did to paint every russian athlete as a potential cheat is gone she thurst that was nice because of the most important result of our collaborative effort is the fact that the court of arbitration for sport has been extended its support for a world on to duping agency in applying measures of collective accountability and

refused to introduce additional participation criteria for russian athlete and the olympic games paralympic games and world championships the world and he duping agency wanted a ruling but it says it respects the court's decision for his fare for the next 2 years so no more scandal no more investigations who fully it all ends all restrictions will be lifted it's a new start which not everyone is happy about the united states especially has made a stink of it that have preferred a more permanent battle usada acknowledges the devastating decision from the court of arbitration for sport in the russia case that hands water and clean athletes a significant loss at this stage in this sordid russian stay. sponsored doping affair now spanning close to a decade there is no consolation in this week a watered down outcome to once again escape

a meaningful consequence proportional to the crimes much less a real ban is a catastrophic blow to clean athletes the integrity of sport and the rule of law we shift course is ridiculous given the unprecedented enmity between the u.s. and the world adze duping agency largely because washington allegedly attempted to seize control of it and threatened to cut its payments to wada if it didn't play along it didn't and it made clear that american athletes risk being blocked from the olympics if washington stops paying its jews at the end of the day this final ruling pleased know what top of that these are these the tough times for wada with calls and cries demanding the agency reform or else but unless something changes the decision is final and then and a fresh start. this friday marks international migrants day and thousands of

undocumented asylum seekers have filed the streets of some 50 cities across france this is the scene in paris organizers of the demonstration have so far refused to back down and dispersed with over $1000.00 restrictions in place in the capital this comes just weeks after police dismantled a makeshift camp in the city something which triggered a public outcry at the time. patients in northern ireland are being treated in the back of ambulances in hospital car parks because of chronic lack of capacity as covert cases search queues of ambulances formed outside clinics and throughout the country and with no beds free at a hospital in county antrim 17 lined up outside its emergency depart. one patient reportedly stayed there overnight he spoke with medic john kelley. i being a doctor for over 35 years the same so i mean. accident emergency

departments. it is very important that we get our section rates are controlled and we need clear concise advice to our population and we need clear action by our executive to reduce those numbers we do know that locked up in doss reduce them i know it is difficult. we need to get the numbers to i'm about our health service and cope until hopefully we start to get a vaccination rolled out to our population. well the situation has been called critical with more than 59000 confirmed cases and 1100 deaths northern ireland will go back into a 6 week a lockdown after christmas day residents are being urged to leave their homes only

for essential reasons the deputy 1st minister said that there was little choice. but to be disappointing to manny i think a lot of people also would have expected it and it's very clear that we needed an urgent intervention and i think this is the right decision by the executive albeit i accept it would be challenging for many many people unfortunately last time seems to be the only true look we have to reduce numbers of people getting those fires hospital admissions and that's it's a very difficult decision for our pop culture for our politicians to make they have to balance the risks of. increasing numbers going into hospital into a good chance against the mental well being of the population and oh absolutely economic problems that this has caused. i think a prolonged lockdown would have been beneficial here. in about

this is the one business show you can imagine i'm. in washington coming up united states kind of the largest chip maker and maybe one last move just in that tough on china legacy before the presidency comes to a close and e-commerce continues to shatter shopping records accelerating a trend many experts thought we wouldn't see until 125 we have a lot to get to so let's get started. the u.s. is preparing to add dozens of chinese firms to its trade blacklist and it includes china's largest chip maker smic with the u.s. commerce department confirmed the decision and secretary wilbur ross said entity list restrictions are a message sorry measure to ensure that china through its national champion smic.
