anywhere why not me. when i come here. america repealed britain's decision not to extradite to the united states despite growing calls for president biden to drop the case against the wiki leaks founder. raising questions about who gets the money. and the governors of ministration comes under increasing pressure. during the pandemic we speak to the door. to their political it.

in this weekend money welcome to world news from international 1st for you this hour the u.s. has launched an appeal against a british court decision not to extradite julian assange that's despite a petition sent to the u.s. justice department demanding that the case is dropped altogether signatures include rights groups like amnesty international and the american civil liberties union. the indictment of mr sunshine threatens press freedom because much of the conduct described in the indictment is conduct the journal 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 last month in a ruling that surprised many british judge block to sound his extradition over concerns for his mental health nevertheless days later he was still denied bail and media freedom groups were also left dismayed as the judge largely supported

america's case against the whistleblower america's indicted him on 17 counts of spying and one of conspiracy to hack a government computer he faces up to 175 years in prison if found guilty assault expose what some of characterized as u.s. war crimes whistleblower and former cia analyst john kiriakou says convicting a song 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 of 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. united states is sold more than a 1000000 barrels of oil it was seized from iranian tankers last year as part of washington sanctions program and another captured vessel is currently on its way to u.s. paul right now the sage is a become standard practice for the u.s. as punishment for 10 alleged nuclear plans washington claims all income generated will go to fund victims of state sponsored terrorism but is that really the case is the whole cold. need not idea for a side hustle put sanctions on

a country pirate its oil exports and sell it that's what the us did with a 1000000 barrels of iranian oil seized under its sanction regime last year and suffice it to say there were some handsome profits to be made while the value of the seized fuel has not been announced compared to european gasoline prices the sale could equate to tens of millions of dollars while washington says the revenue will be used for the greater good the u.s. victims of state sponsored terrorism fund cording to its website victims are embassy workers who were held hostage in iran in 1989 and anyone who won a lawsuit against those who the u.s. 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. now the international court of justice is claiming it has jurisdiction over iran challenging u.s. sanctions the same ones that were imposed under former president donald trump but 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 international oil economist octomom to sodomite told us that actions like this undermine america's status. well that's true it's. the same

chance. to see these sanctions. as not internal national. that. you know is. well aware of this certainly. other countries on its. u.s. coalition with the united states and. it is. certainly. the response i'm going to serve but i think it's not going to have the rest. of us. the makers are demanding an investigation after a leaked message suggested

a top aide to the new york governor of method withholding the correct figures on covert deaths and. basically we froze because then we were in the position where we were unsure if what we were going to give to the department of justice was going to be used against us while we weren't sure if there was going to be an investigation the scandal escalated 2 weeks ago when the new york attorney general's report accused the administration of undercounting covert deaths in nursing homes by some 50 percent the state health department then revealed nearly 4000 previously unreported victims who later died in hospital or in another facility i want grieving mother who lost her mother one grieving daughter who lost her mother says that new york's vulnerable elderly population are being used as political pawns. but you know the sad part is that they used our seniors and everything that they it was going on with death that death toll to their political advantage they were covering up for in order to remain in power and in that's

that's a travesty that they did that not only to seniors but that to their loved ones when we've been calling from mines for answers and accountability and all we we've been met with insults and with stonewalling so we're happy that this is starting to come out and we just believe this is that step of the dice for a senior cuomo divisor has promised an investigation but blame the trumpet ministration for what it presented as a politically motivated smear campaign over the n.s.a. or says an unbiased probe is essential to revealing the truth 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 if they're going to play political football with our seniors and with this information then we're still not hopeful that they'll be held accountable governor cuomo this press conferences has said who cares where the seniors died we care we continue to say that we care where they died we care where they died and we hear how they died. any lawyers in belgium

have written an open letter warning the government restrictions are eroding the more because they fail to get parliamentary approval 1st what we have criticised is the fact that the coverage measures in belgium being to create by ministerial decree we think the restrictions on fundamental liberties shouldn't be decided by parliament by way of the rule an act of parliament that is the proper way to deal with that sort mentions. restrictions still in place include a night curfew across the country bars and restaurants remain shut and visits to the homes of family and friends are banned citizens must also go shopping alone and work from home whenever possible in the letter of annoyance added the lack of political legitimacy gives perfect grounds for public unrest something the country has repeatedly suffered throughout the lockdown the government insists it will put

a pandemic law to parliament but the lawyer we spoke to says they should have been done a long time ago. we are now one year from the start of the pandemic we think. government's 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 how. we live under the rule of law. and we want the rule of law to prevail in all circumstances also in particularly difficult situations like the crisis to now that is what i'm concerned. to paris police officers are said to be charged over violence at a yellow vests protest in $2191.00 is believed were fired a stun grenade that left activity room rodriguez blind in one eye he told us his injury was just the start of government led attacks. 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 26th in 2019 but also about everything that followed the pressure i was subjected to subsequent problems accusations that were brought forward against me from the government or certain ministers in assembly members. cameras capture the moments off the rodrigo's was hit in the thousands were injured in the yellow vest mass rallies for economic justice the broke out in late 2018 a study found a 5 protest is lost hands from being hit by police munitions and 13 were partially blinded the number of disciplinary proceedings for violence by officers also rose dramatically.

2 years ago the u.n. human rights commission calls for a probe into the possible use of excessive force by french police during the protest however the government rejected the accusations with president calling them unacceptable although then prime minister eduardo felipe did admit lower enforcement had made mistakes in handling the rallies to rome rodriguez describes the lack of action from the authorities as being even worse than police brutality.

if you did you know when officials talk about you as mentally retarded on live television you also need to be able to deal with that says 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. this weekend the mob say britain's health service is under fire for adopting new gender neutral language rules during the pandemic it's just one of our stories offer the break. thanks guys are fine it looks like they say most of the delegates. could take it easy this is the central plank support dying at the moment kind of problem right

now so they stopped. eh. eh eh. eh eh. eh eh. eh eh.

hello again the u.k.'s national health service is facing condemnation from many sides over a new gender neutral language requirement while some think the pandemic is hardly the time for a huge politically correct overall even though it is meant to benefit such as trans groups are critical of the timing saskia taylor explained you think the national health service in the country in lockdown in the middle of the you raging pandemic what 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.

and i just trust has come up with a roadmap to inclusive it and apparently this is just the start fast off so many revelations so tons out there all those people since the very beginning of time who thought they had breasts the way i must this wrong man could easily have been doing the midnight chest feeding all these years out of the robot to be 0 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 institutions 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 while they were not impressed excuse me hauser

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 with the storming of the capitol building has already seen a reported 221 people charged facing up to 20 years in jail democratic party officials and media are calling the offenders domestic terrorists and the f.b.i. is identifying suspects with the help of more than 200000 photos and videos mostly from the social networks and that's all gone without consequences for facebook it's lost more than $30000000000.00 in market value investors spooked by the platforms coziness with the f.b.i. analyst and commentator warns the innocent people could have been caught up in this wave. lot of people don't realize that a lot of your social and your data is why don't the other thing is that. facebook

changes your policy and what may have been acceptable. 6 months ago may not today and in the me 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 on and turned over investigator were not in the capitol they were perhaps on the capitol grounds but that completely equal eat well until recently completely legal and open and public space so there was really no violation of any type of war whatsoever but we've kind of twisted that and interpret it differently and 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 years or other types of video information is probably being looked at as well. 38 people have now been confirmed dead after a himalayan glassy a broke off and destroyed a dam causing devastating floods that have also left the 200 people missing this is the moment a fast moving mix of rocks and water smashed through northern india environmental activists have criticized government claims that it was a freak accident saying they've been warning for decades that in the industrial development all of that territory was eroding the mountain range of today's edition of artie's going underground his from an award winning environmentalist from the area has some of that show which you can watch now on r.t. dot com. what have you made of this dreadful tragedy in the himalayas involving a. well you know i am from this region of well that are kind where the ganges starts i became a volunteer for shit called what

tests in washington coming out well the markets are mostly up this week as the 3 major indices in the united states both weekly gains falling a record setting week on the political divide in america. as has become more noticeable when it comes to folks from censorship we. have a panel standing by we have a lot to get cancer let's get started. a u.s. farm up by a pharmaceutical company is looking to bring an indian ming covered 1000 vaccine to america pennsylvania things to occupy an ink wants to get kovacs in approved for use here in the states hopes are that it can play an important role in protecting americans from the crown of ice which would most likely standings in the stock market artie's album i have it has a story it has been one of the hardest hit countries in the global pandemic. with more than 10700000 registered infections india has recorded the 2nd highest number of covert cases in the world after the united states more than 150000 people in

india have died so far from the corona virus but things are starting to get better . the number of active code 1000 cases in the country is continuously increasing it is currently less than 160000 this trend of declining and cases is ongoing the mass coded 19 vaccination drive program kicked off in india in mid january so far more than 4500000 doses of vaccines have been administered by mislead you know everyone sort of a certain comfort or decades of action has been made and i think the fear of the jobs come from 2 sources the oxford university astra zeneca cova shield vaccine and kovacs it which is developed by the indian pharmaceutical company bharat biotech now pennsylvania based oxygen inc wants to bring kovacs into the states the biopharmaceutical company which traditionally deals with fighting blindness has

entered an agreement with india's bharat biotech tweeted we are excited to announce the definitive agreement for the commercialization of kovacs in the us with bharat biotech and share in the us commercialization profits kovacs and received emergency use authorization approval in india in january. according to a press release from oxygen the company plans to receive an initial supply of kovacs and doses from brought biotech once the vaccine is approved by u.s. regulatory authorities in the meantime it will ramp up its own manufacturing process of the vaccine in the u.s. while the vaccine is already being used in india due to the emergency use authorization it is simultaneously in its phase 3 of clinical trials involving 25800 patients so far that actually has shown plenty of promise it is easily stored and could potentially treat all age groups kovacs and also shown to work against covert 1000 variants such as the u.k. strain aside from creating excitement for its coronavirus fighting abilities the

prospect of oxygen importing and manufacturing kovacs in the u.s. has piqued the interest of investors in december oxygen was a penny stock that you could have picked up for $0.29 a share this past monday it hit a high of $18.77 since then the stock has leveled off a bit many blame the massive spike in shares on reddit traders but some analysts believe there's more to the story phase 3 clinical trial results from bharat biotech are expected in the coming weeks and positive news could do wonders for oxygen and if approved by u.s. regulators kovacs and could become an important player in america's immunization program if these things were to happen the oxygen stock could hit a new record high but then again with the type of stock market volatility we've seen in the past month it's anybody's bet for boom bust i'm alex my love it.
