for russia this is art international with me kevin no in the morning's headlines and more details for you then coming up on 1st key moment for wiki leaks founder julian assange in his bid for freedom the latest is the u.s. has filed an appeal against a british court decision not to extradite him is despite a petition sent to the u.s. justice department demanding president biden drop the case altogether signatories include rights groups like amnesty international and the american civil liberties. indictment of mr sanchez threatens press freedom because much of the conduct described in the indictment is conduct that gen the single routinely and that they must engage in in order to do the work the public needs them to do in our view such a precedent in this case could effectively criminalize common journalistic

practices well in a ruling that many didn't anticipate a british judge blocked a songes extradition over concerns for his mental health nevertheless days later he was still denied bail and media freedom groups were also dismayed that the judge largely supported america's case against the whistleblower america's indicted him on 17 counts of spying with one of conspiracy to hack a government computer he faces up to 175 years in prison if convicted the sirens expose what some of characterized as u.s. war crimes whistleblower former cia analyst john kiriakou says convicting assad's would pose a threat to journalism. you know this is not unusual actually even in my own case amnesty international and the american civil liberties union asked the obama administration to drop the case on me and they would even discuss it they don't want to look weak and at the same time they really don't have respect for the wishes of these human rights groups and civil liberties groups i agree that the

justice department does not think this is about press freedom i think it is about press freedom but the justice department refuses to acknowledge that julian assange is a journalist were a publisher but i think the real disappointment here and the real danger here is the fact that mainstream journalists in the mainstream media especially organizations like the new york times the washington post the wall street journal have not come out in support of julian assigns that's where the danger is because if julian assange is convicted then any reporter in america doing his or her job is in danger of being charged with espionage for publishing information that is embarrassing to the u.s. government by the way i don't know if it's friday well it is of course the weekend though to put into panic if you're going to go to work and it's really here now next the u.s. has sold more than a 1000000 barrels a write in oil same as last year as part of washington sanctions program as another

12:05 am
considers state sponsors of terror but who exactly are these people has anyone ever seen them we're talking about tens of millions of dollars here don't worry until we find out who gets the money washington says it will be safely in the hands of government agencies and as for what effect this all has on iran the world's 4th largest oil reservoir taran claims it's not flinching in the face of u.s. sanctions. the enemy and trump one address to perish and our experts to reach the room we set the highest record of exports in the history of the will industry during the embargo period still the country is fighting tooth and nail to get those sanctions lifted and revive the iran nuclear deal which the trumpet ministration pulled out of in 2018 biden though seems no more willing to cooperate than his predecessor will the us lift sanctions 1st in order to get iran back to the negotiating table known now the international court of justice is claiming it has jurisdiction over iran challenging u.s.
12:06 am
sanctions the same ones that were imposed under former president donald trump and washington is telling the court to mind its own business and why not for he who controls the seas it's a never ending feast of someone else's oil and mountains of profit don't go to the international oil economist octomom to sell them a told us such us actions undermine its great power status. well that's so it's. imperial sanctions. policy there are these sanctions as has not the intel national 32 lou that. you know is. around and generous with all of this sort of little mess and. other countries around it. and of course that will happen if you ask a question that the united states and.

12:08 am
revelations of sparked outrage. you're only sorry that you all got caught because of your decisions thousands of people died who did not have to die were not offended and were furious with extremely good reason for over 6 months day after day in briefing after briefing governor cuomo stood before new yorkers and lied about his directive that contributed to the deaths of thousands of seniors under cuomo has proven himself unworthy of our trust and unfit for public office governor cuomo the secretary to the governor and his senior team must be prosecuted immediately this bombshell admission of a cover up and the remarks by the secretary to the governor indicating intent to obstruct any federal investigation is a stunning and criminal abuse of power a senior corps advisor promised a probe but played the trumpet ministration of what it presented as a politically motivated smear attempt we got reaction them from vivian she was on
12:09 am
this program earlier on this week who lost her mother take over it in a new york care home. we have mixed feelings part of it is elation because we were been dictated to we know that they were hiding our mission and partly the sadness because you know in the scope of loss has been overwhelming the reality is that we needed an independent investigation with subpoena power to be able to get to the communications that were happening before the election in you know the sad part is that they used our seniors and everything that they say was going on with the death that death toll to their political advantage they were covering up for in order to control remain in power and in that's that's a travesty that they did that not only to seniors but to get to their loved ones when we've been calling for a monster for answers and accountability and all we we've been met with. and with don't want governor cuomo press conferences has said who cares where the seniors
12:10 am
died we care we continue to say that we care where they died we care where they died and we care how they died. so you belgian lawyers have written an open letter warning the government code restrictions erode the law if they fail to 1st parliamentary approval for the cubs you spoke to one of the signatories. what we have criticized is the fact that coverage measures in belgium have been to create ministerial decree we think the restrictions on the fundamental liberties shouldn't be decided. by the law an active part of it that is the proper way to deal with that sort measures. or restrictions still in place include a night curfew across the country bars and restaurants will also remain shut and even visits to the homes of family and friends are banned citizens must also go
12:11 am
shopping alone and work from home wherever possible so in the letter the belgian lawyers added the lack of political legitimacy gives quote perfect grounds for public unrest which the country's repeatedly suffered through the lock down the government insists it will put a pandemic law to parliament however the lawyer we spoke to says they should have done a long time ago. we know one year from the start of the pandemic and we think. governments had sufficient time to put in place a new piece of legislation that could replace the urgent ones and the provisional ones that could be taken in march so it is it is sad to see that this has has not happened we lived under the rule of law and we want the rule of law to prevail in all circumstances also also in particularly difficult situations like the crisis we are going to now that is what i am concerned. since the start of the pandemic
12:12 am
portugal's recorded more than 780000 6 coronavirus cases and around 15000 death the country will remain in lockdown till at least march as the infection rate slowing but still with the high daily death toll but in the crisis some are warming stories and shown through to. they went for coffee and they're easily relieved through it calmly. it's their love indeed their passion for each other.

12:15 am
sort of a warning if you watch the clock exactly 15 past the hour next britain's health service faces condemnation from many sides a rich new gender neutral language requirements while some think the pandemic right now is hardly the time for huge politically correct overhauls nonetheless even those meant to benefit such as trans groups are critical to its aims that's good taylor reports. do you think the national health service in a country in lockdown in the middle of a you raging pandemic would have other things to do than go on a rampage of political correctness but no you'd be wrong in fact here's a list of the new lingo you need to brush up on.
12:16 am
and i just trust has come up with a roadmap to increase of it and apparently this is just the start fast off so many revelations so tons out that all those people since the very beginning of time who thought they had breasts the word must this wrong man could easily have been doing the midnight chest feeding all these years out of a robot to be a row way ahead of his time but irony of ironies this trans friendly policy didn't even win over all the people it specifically set out to include this is an absolutely classic case of my public sector institution trying to be woke and succeeding only in 1000 lives much harder for the very people on whose behalf it presumes to speak and the 34000000 in the u.k. who identify as one well they were not impressed. excuse me how is

12:19 am
continuing to share more information with law enforcement in response to valid legal requests as they continue their investigation number one snitch in america big brother is facebook surreal farce. while the storming of the capitol building last month has so far resulted in charges against a reported $221.00 people if found guilty they could face up to 20 years in prison democratic officials have dubbed the offenders domestic terrorists the f.b.i. task of identifying offenders was aided by more than $200000.00 photos and videos mostly from social media averts not all gone without consequences for facebook that the lost more than 30000000000 dollars of market value as investors have been spooked by the platform's coziness with the feds the f.b.i. has revealed to its getting users personal messages from the platform in order to trace suspected capital rioters listing commentator earl rasmussen told this
12:20 am
innocent people these things could have been caught up in this sweep a lot of people don't realize i mean a lot of your vision you dated well you know the thing is that. facebook changes your policy and what may have been acceptable. 6 months ago may not today and in they may come back and go oh you did this and that's against our policy so we're banning for most people i would say hundreds of thousands of people really did nothing illegal whatsoever there you had if you had some absolutely but but the majority of people in fact some people that are being turned in and turned over investigator were not in the capitol they were perhaps on the capitol grounds but that's completely equal eat well until recently completely legal and open and public space so there was really no violation of any type of wall whatsoever but we've kind of twisted that and interpret it differently and
12:21 am
facebook seems to be and i would gather other social media platforms are turning over extensive amount of information and probably you've probably got a lot of business probably review of a lot of c.c.t.v. drone footage is or other types of video information is probably being looked at as well. to paris police officers is said to be charged over violence and the yellow vests protest in 2019 once believed to fire the stun grenade that left activist jerome rodriguez blind in one eye when an interview with us were previous told us about what he'd been through. the more uppity i joined the political opposition at least in relation to my crohn's policies considering what is happening in many countries it is obvious that they are trying to silence me it is not only about a bullet or a grenade as a result of which i lost an eye on january 26 in 2019 but also about everything
12:22 am
that followed the pressure i was subjected to subsequent problems accusations that were brought forward against me from the government or certain ministers and assembly members i warn you may find some of these images disturbing a profound offices may have been responsible for the shot that blinded rodriguez in one eye but he's far from the only alleged victim.
12:23 am
in march 29th the u.n. human rights commission called for a probe into possible use of excessive force by french police during the yellow vest protests the government rejected the accusations with president mccrone calling them an acceptable however then prime minister edouard phillipe admitted mistakes in law enforcement's handling of the rallies rodriguez again says the lack of action from authorities is even worse as far as he's concerned the police brutality. if it would be more you know when officials talk about you as mentally retarded on live television you also need to be able to deal with that that has lasted 2 years and of course there is no way i can fight back against that the pressure that these people the government the state put on me personally and on my family cost me much more harm than the police who gathered my eye out.

general what is the important fact that we always should care about our privacy yes though whenever we perform transaction we're going to be throwing that kind of market but definitely very bumpy we need to use precise coalition precise wallets for example that could alter our good security solution and the private things and different ways how we're able to use for example our our money to pay for it to be so if we are getting into that kind of area it's definitely recommended to use the good reputation service the army what we see is that for example during the pandemic attack they have brought by 569 percent which is a crazy amount to take into consideration what we have you know that's meaning that doctors are actually increasing that fixed because they stayed of mali to do the odd and the follow for example when they run somewhere yes so we can expect more of that question is are we prepared because adventure when we look at it from the
