a game changer for julia sanchez says it could put the brakes on his extradition to the u.s. the audio seems to prove the whistleblower in fact tried to warn the state department about a mass breach of classified information back in 2011 appearing then to be in stark contrast to to washington's claims that the sarge wanted to endanger lives this is what christian have france and told us in an exclusive interview this is 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's basically the argument that is in the narrative for the justice department in their indictment and try to use it to get a measured a lovely u.k. you know talking about irresponsible behavior and putting lives at risk following the revelations more than 400000 people around the world of already signed

washington itself a new t released tape has revealed a song just tempted to warn the us state department undone 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 he 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. right came to. spread around. to. the degree that. we believe we've. become public.

some possibility. so no right can see dropping a political bombshell standing back and watching it burn as we've been told is easy is disguise. 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 son of a beast on our great discredit to this nation should be assassinated you should be treated as an enemy combatant with you 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 case for. our viewers. we have been calling. the embassy. every day trying to. 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 will be extradited to the u.s. 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 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 time and timing is everything it's change the image of a man who was cost out as a traitor and without running out for donald trump's presidency i'm on wiki leaks

but on to replace him in the white house this could be the last chance for america to part an unfit give a man who wanted to save washington from its shame time as. the essence for a sourness to avoid a life in jail the assistance was offered to to to stop this or mitigate any and impossible 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 offering to say to the state department never came back to julian for more information and seem to have not done anything based on his warning . or there's little doubt as of the color vids impacted all our lives in one way or another and in an article for r.t. dot com in the week renowned philosophers level told us they'll be no return to normal once the pandemic is over i asked him direct to expand on why he told me

it's because the crisis has opened up opportunities to control people like never before. ah. in the straight if we can save our last tuesday we were just afraid. to you know perspective now it's strange to think it's happening to be so much smarter but a lot cheaper and the same damn people are afraid lest they die to go all socialized and so it's not just shifting dream and those now we have a bank and then already it's more enjoyment like let's enjoy and wait last who knows what will happen i did a virus she's waiting to die and people of course of that although i am far measures lower down and. many just use decent book establish mechanisms of their own and. slip it into what i.

post human state of being totally digital their own maybe then they see on the horizon even the prospect of so good why are brain dead our minds process recently been dealing so definitely i'm not exaggerating here then you. got me and then we should. have. set that we learned from. a. dead me. it's possible to do a 2nd point to give you any details. over interest and point today science seriously yes these possibilities open by the by gaming but they're all in the being that many many millions of go surely ses

each deny science i usually go on with. the same. priority of shells are going to go on me right most of them are me. and you can have. all of these and you can be just that. in a week and expose a drug smuggling is risen massively in perlin with drug dealers now controlling swathes of the german capital our sister channel r.t. german took a hidden camera there to some of the most troubled areas of that city and this is what they found.

before the intimidated me a well built young man came into my kiosk i told him to get out but he refused to they started grabbing me i called the police but they arrived too late so i gave a statement but nothing has changed. if not then you can see them looking out for a potential victim and if somebody is not paying attention they smash their bag or wallets. that i'm open with when i go to the station looking for a dealer i tell him what i need he takes

a rubbed elbows out of his mouth the standard price for a job is this $20.00 euros i give him the money and we go our separate ways. the most important reason for this freestyle drug trafficking is a very lenient city government and they instructed police to turn a blind eye towards the drug dealers at gurlitz up ethnic groups from africa most of them are rejected asylum seekers not deported according to the law the acting the africans are acting out is going to suck cock and trying to make a living but they're not alone. immigrants looking for decent work but as i said most of them are rejected asylum seekers and should not be in this country secondly there are. activities. who are dominating certain areas and bill in their very very well organized organized crime and. their word

is the law and this happens not just in berlin but also in other cities in germany . in the 1st of a t.v. interview the daughter of iran's former top general has given an emotional description of when she found out he did the u.s. assassinated general because some sell the money in a drone strike in january news of the summer when he also speaks about the water consequences of a father's death you can watch the whole thing at all t. dot com i got so shocked and saw all of stress like my heart was going out from my chest when i turned on the t.v. and i saw his picture i understand what happened and from that they tell me i'm still shocked how is the death of you off brought iran together what happened in iran and iraq was something it's something so

special in the history you see how people come to the street and they are crying and they are sad and they are angry and they wonder events and they are waiting for an answer because they know. what general fully money did for them and they know also well why order to kill my father so so after that after killing my father america thought that everything will be stopped because they killed general soleimani depart the middle east but they are still wrong. they didn't see the anger of the art in the eyes of iranian people they didn't see their tears they didn't see their sadness and i have to say that generously money has a military from people that they will take revenge from and they are so wrong

they are thinking this war will be end the end of generosity money this is the beginning our people are united and they will stand in front of such a they just powers. in other news of the week the u.s. imposed sanctions on turkey over its purchase of russia's s 400 surface to air missile system and angry president the one that said he thought washington was a friend just did you look at it as a nato member it is being applied against our country for the 1st time what kind of an alliance is this this decision is an open attack on the sovereign rights of our country. turkey is a valued ally and an important regional security partner for the united states and we seek to continue our decades long history of productive defense sector cooperation by removing the obstacle of turkey's s 400 possession as soon as possible the embargoes target turkey's defense industry officials whose assets will

be frozen and visas restricted russia's foreign minister says the move breaks international law but also that he's not surprised. look at your stature should. this is of course another example of arrogance towards international law a manifestation of illegitimate unilateral coercive measures that the united states has been using for many years even decades left and right and of course it doesn't increase u.s. or thora t. on the international arena is a responsible participant in the international division of labor including military and technical cooperation. and the s 400 system last year in the trumpet ministrations been threatening to punish turkey ever since because of it claiming russia's system is a danger to nato its double bass political analyst use of arab spoke to us about it he says everyone's got plenty of ways to retaliate though if he wants to. it's

a huge snow because we see the americans saying that they want to give diplomacy a chance but throughout this whole s 400 process being acted very asymmetrical the various unilaterally will try to reciprocate and complicate things for the united states bilateral relations and american activity in the region as well start you can also see by us whether they'd be to see producing parts for the f. $35.00 there's american. air base american presidents that shouldn't use the radar stations but i don't think you will take any very aggressive steps right now especially with the new administration coming in and we've already seen the turkish president called for a review of the sanctions where he's hoping that they could be lifted or going forward. thanks check in this weekend was appreciated coming up and this is perhaps no the last 24 hours of so london is rushing to get out of the capital had

a tough new a lot of rules like taking a midnight on a warning of an even more contagious for a look at the broader covert response across the continent says about just about a minute and. join me every posting on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to a guest in the world of politics or business i'm show business i'll see you then. is your media a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe. isolation community. are you going the right way or are you being.

what is truth. is. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the. orem even the shallow. good morning so then london is a scramble to get out of the capital of what's been called the biggest evacuation since world war 2 after the city announced a new extra strict law from saturday night plus people even jumping into a hugely expensive taxis and trying to get the other side of the country to save

their christmas freedom as it was revealed as well a 70 percent more infectious corona virus strain spreading fast. 'd method it would be hard to enjoy the festive period as usual this year. given the early evidence we have on this new variant of the virus the potential risk it poses it is with a very heavy heart i must tell you we cannot continue with christmas as planned johnson's words echo or warning them from the world health organization which this week said the festive period is no time to relax about covert adding that the pandemic may get even worse and across the continent singerman a strict new lockdown was also announced this week with records being sent there for the number of new covert cases but the problem goes even wider to as peter oliver found out. the christmas lockdown period is a part of here in germany comes at a particularly odd time the couldn't treat posted record breaking covert figures

this week that combs 'd are saying that they will roll out a vaccination program in the coming weeks but also warn that the foundations of already. for a 3rd wave of coronavirus. we saw that a 3rd wave had started to build before the 2nd one actually subsided we need to give a clear signal this christmas the new year must be different to usual it's not just germany italy is facing a grim record of its own 700000 deaths this year the highest figure since 1944 were during the 2nd world war rome has put in place new regulations to run from monday the 21st until january the 6th that will see restaurants closing at 6 pm and 10 pm curfew but hospitality workers say these measures will ruin them they actually destroyed our sector by making us clothes are established at 6 pm and

blaming us for things they were guilty of instead because during lockdown we didn't receive anything not the 1st time the 2nd 3rd or 4th a similar scene is playing out in france where the stay at home order has been replaced with a curfew that move has seen thousands of workers at cultural venues protest a shutdown on their places of work i did i. was. in spain antibody testing is found that one in 10 of the population had been infected with covert 19 the scale of this pandemic is hitting home in sweden as well with more deaths this november than any since the spanish flu pandemic over a century ago. and an official investigation into sweden's coronavirus strategy has found that stock must take the blame for its high death rate prompting the swedish

prime minister to put out a statement saying the country cost its tactics of role. i think most health officials didn't see such a wave in front of them they spoke about clusters it's not like we weren't prepared for something to happen again but no one could have predicted the strength of it some conclusions have been made about where we could have done better in a week's time families would be coming together across europe to celebrate christmas however this year with covert dictating the rules the festive period may well be a lot more distant than we used to as european leaders to keep contacts to a minimum peter all of a burly. hundreds of restaurant workers rallied in central new york this week after a new city locked on a string since there came into force which protesters warn will force most of the business. to your parents through. what you are

trying to refer to my friend or neighbor are not waiting for error. governor cuomo banned indoor dining demonstrators demanded support from the government a report indeed found that without help more than half of city restaurants will close forever and even some of the most iconic venues may have to shut to as caleb maupin found. the coated night scene pandemic has been deadly for a society's most vulnerable even the big guns are not safe and for businesses it's no different here in new york city the latest victim is club 21 and i connick establishment that is now shutting its doors the restaurant has been serving customers for a century there's been some big stars along the way such as novelist ernest hemingway tennis player john mcenroe as well as every sitting president since roosevelt except of course george w. bush and barack obama in light of the going global crisis and it dissipated extended recovery period for the hospitality industry the difficult decision was

made that it will not be feasible to reopen the 21 club in its current form for the forseeable future club 21 is not alone small businesses have been devastated some estimates say that as many as 50 percent of them could go under soon who is closing cycle in this country my business is on hold no water walks no go literary openings and i can't even open my studio. because therapeutic massage is so up close and personal i have only come back to about 40 percent of my previous clientele i am afraid that the gov will shut us down again which will be the end of my business i also believe the ruling elite does not care about small businesses. the new york state restaurant association made up of over 6000 operators has many who fear they won't make it through the next 6 months you carry to everyone you know every day and we were there some people we had

a little bit of businesses we could do of these 2 little bit more right we had to bring some people back to work and it's terrible to tell them that we can only give them the you know hours of people working full time jobs. so it would hurt. having to tell people that and i'm scared about my family but i'm going to have a job you know a few months if there is nothing because we will be shutting down probably by more that's the realistic look right now $552000000000.00 was provided as a bailout to small businesses during the pandemic however a big chunk of that went to major corporations tied to big banks not the little guys who are struggling to stay afloat meanwhile those that are still open for trade are facing even tougher restrictions that one bar owner in los angeles was fighting back tears and anger when mayor eric garcetti closed down her outdoor patio and just across the way a hollywood movie set had outdoor dining all set up town but this is dangerous.

but right next to me as a slap in my face. that face politicians love to praise small businesses but is the whole game rigged it seems like when we finally emerge from this pandemic we might as well have dined out cheeriest and said farewell to our favorite local spots up an artsy new york. you know better times can't come soon enough become a world thanks for checking in this weekend that's a recap of the stories of the last 7 days in the weekly with me kevin i would something offer no more for me half an hour me time for what i know what's happening on the headlines for the rest of the day check it out download our out of a good one.

teacher movie think of those who did just that in japanese and i. don't mind it just became a zone on that. the shuttles are. flat because of the much space you know along to the max on probably not a few they were established at the map a lot got paid off and you. have the economy to have more than a last step is that. you will slow down the muscle to get enough horses not only a minute as they are critical of the environment i'm almost around to another woman

just to turn over them a bit more but i'm going to. look at what's called a minimal point out of nowhere going to come up thinking i come up each time she comes home to go missing i'm just going to go beyond the happy that what am i doing going to help me. we have the resources. we're out of the. we're out of the courage and we have the compassion and we must remember that kate. rang are the strength of the battery affected. directly. conscious of. the shame of. squalor and the bride of the period should.
