ah ah ah headlines at this hour, the new york times and other mainstream media outlets, the long decides whistle blow julian amount for government to drop its case against him. saying is in the front to feed the press, try 6 to it's 0 code policy despite the increasing western attention to mt long time protests in the country. i'm to kenya host, yet another round of peace till seeking to and a devastating conflict in the democratic republic of congo. the rule at the border

with good afternoon, good evening. wherever you are in the. busy welcome to our international broadcasting live from moscow. it's great to have you with us. i'm at the time army . let's take a look at the top stories this out during this arch, who is facing life in prison for publishing secret u. s. documents that he says exposed american war crimes. those found some, unlike the allies in the mainstream western media, the new york times the guardian and several other outlets that long insisted afar was no hero, have backtracked. and now saying the u. s. government must end it's case this group of editors and publishers, all of whom had worked with the sancha, felt the need to publicly criticize his conduct in 2011. but we come together now to express our grave concerns about the continued prosecution of julian,

a sorry for obtaining and publishing classified materials. this indictment sets a dangerous precedent and threatens to undermine americans 1st amendment and the freedom of the press. well, it certainly makes sense that major news outlets would speak up about the fact that a journalist who published information has been stripped of his human rights as being threatened with extradition and prosecution under the espionage act in the united states. but what many have note it is that this statement seems to very much contradict the town of these publications earlier. and we will note that when julian assigned was being held up in the ecuadorian embassy and when he was dragged out of the ecuadorian embassy, these publications weren't speaking up on his behalf. rather they were helping to build the case by bas marching, his character running him through the mud. he has proved a highly problematic even embarrassing champion for the principles of press freedom in the public's right to information. even mister

a sanchez friends have described him as difficult, a narcissist with an outside view of his importance. it's probably too late for assange to recover his former glory. but if you could give up his futile struggle against extradition and show little respect to the suite of justice system, that would have bliss be a 1st nas through step. now it's also important to note that these words from these publications that now say they support mr. sam's, are they echoed a full blown media campaign to essentially demonize your innocence to justify any state repression levied against him. it was a full blown mainstream media assault to justify what was happening. let's review what was being set on television at design for a decade. and some of the worlds have tried to shut weeks down. and today, julian sanchez, the head of wiki leaks, and draco malfoy, his biological father has finally been arrested. you could tell that living inside

the embassy for 7 years, has taken its toll. here he is back in 2012. yeah. not compare that to today. i mean, amazing. the guy went in looking like draco malfoy came out with like dumbledore. it weekly spanner julian assigns was also arrested in london where he was dragged out of the ecuadorian embassy looking like santa claus with a manifesto. ah, you're all not a i have it on my right. look. look at him, look in just a few years. he went from bond villain to crowd surfing hobbit. now while focusing on obscure criticisms of his, on his personality or his appearance, mainstream media seemed to have forgotten what he reveal. review the revelations about real crimes and real scandals that came to light due to work wiki leaks ah,

ah, a tooth . now, the biden administration has given no indication that they have any intention of dropping the charges, or the expedition case against julian a, sorry, the u. s department of justice says they continue to pursue extradition and that they will continue to pursue extradition for the time being. now the u. k. home

secretary did approve the extradition of julian assange because u. s. officials have promised to treat him humanely, whatever that means. so at the moment, julianna's on his legal team is appealing that decision that he would be extradited to the united states. we heard from legal on me the alas lionel, who says he's surprised by how the worth and media is now changed, is tune about a thought if you listen to this absolutely imprisoned and feckless commentary by today's canoe shanty, just making fun of the way he looks you know why he looks like that. let me tell you, it's called torture. that's why you look like that. and i like to see any of those brave journalist see if they can withstand a week of this. this is something which absolutely galls me. julian assigned whether you're like him or not, whether you care for his personality is a hero. something must be happening. why all of a sudden, what changed?

what information are they privy to? what sensibility were they exposed to that made them say, wait a minute. oh, by the way or collectively, simultaneously, it's some kind of a choreograph fashion. they all decided, i think that maybe there is somebody to be said where he was actually a journalist. i haven't the foggiest, but i won't tell you, there should be a follow up better tauriel as to how, how just, how imprisoned these people were. i can't believe how these journalists and they do the new york times high and mighty, and dare i say, if you go back in your read what they said, their actual statement, it doesn't even provide a bella particulars as to why it's almost like a, i'll come on enough's enough, i guess he's a journalist, it was rather we look warm and tepid at best. newsome,

fire mouth china has the flat and thin quitters as low as 0 cove and policies saying some social media uses with quote oh syria motives have been deliberately distorting fox. so ferment unrest. raisin says that despite the descent, it's sticking with its initial plans. duvall, china has always been following its general 0 covert policy and has been making relevant adjustments in the light of the actual situation. we are now actively implementing the 9th version of the prevention and control plan says that the british primary survey, he silica accused beijing of failing to listen to processes. and instead of choosing to quote, cracked down further. and that's not the only western condemnation of trans 0 co policies is what washington had to say. are message to peaceful protesters around the world is the same. and consistent people should be allowed for the right to

assemble and to peacefully protest policies or laws or dictates that that they take issue with the western mainstream press has been gushing with sympathy for victims of government coven crackdowns, and they're cheering on protesters spilling into the streets and referring to the quote remarkable bravery of the protesters fight against draconian state loc downs . well, you know, just as long as the people protesting against these po, the crackdowns are in china. but if the citizens demanding to preserve their basic freedoms, to assemble, to work, to move around and to decide you know what to inject into their body or not happened to be in the west. well then the western media treats them like a bunch of nut job conspiracy theorists who are a threat to society and deserve to be suppressed and marginalized for having the absolute gall to resist government policy. here's how c n. n anchor. and chief domestic correspondent, jim acosta. feels about restrictive coded policies imposed in china compared to

when his own fellow americans were faced with coven mandates? and i guess what about the coven lockdown policy, this extreme policy that they've had, could that finally become in june and might the chinese government relent? governments, corporations, they're requiring vaccinations and yeah, some local leaders are calling on masks to return, so kids can safely go back to school so we can prevent morlock downs. what was the last time the any one witnessed a massive, nearly unanimous outpouring of support in the western mainstream media for anti cove. it mandate protesters in europe, for example, who took to the streets every weekend in places like here in paris for weeks on end . where was there support for the freedom convoy in canada, who supporters wanted nothing more than to re or equal rights as the federal government engineered a 2 tiered society with travel and work prohibitions for those who failed to comply

with government job mandates. all while prime minister just intruders government declared martial law to stop these protesters from taking to the streets and ordered the freezing of their bank accounts. when their own fellow citizens are standing up to government oppression, the western press is quick to denounce them as lawbreakers. we have a robust functioning democracy and protests public protests are an important part of making sure we're getting messages out there and candidates getting messages out there and highlighting how they feel of various issues of but using protests to demand changes to public policy is something that that i think is, is, is worrisome. but when the same phenomenon is unfolding in china, well, you know, you can't stop the spread of freedom, right? just ask german, stay, broadcaster, deutsche valley. this is an extraordinary moment in china,

and it's spreading further. i'm wider in cities right across the country, hundreds and taking to the streets. angry. i'm fed up with the government say, wrote current policy. the protests, which for the most part, are a legal have become more militant in recent weeks. restrictions on public life have been increased for those who are not vaccinated. what a brilliant example of objectivity and reporting the same sort of protests in 2 separate places. maybe opponents of western authoritarianism should go waves, some signs denouncing their own governments, proven crackdowns over there in china if they want the western for us to help them denounce locked downs while pretending to objectively report the news. thanks. a gal vice president of an eastern focus thinktank says the west, the west spends more time, folks in china and its own domestic problems. protest,

i'm not common in china. our progress are common in many european countries right now in many european capital, cities, et cetera. there are huge protests stripes of all kinds, for example. and in the united states, you have massive kidney gum mileage is really a curse. now, they do not talk to lag much about these disturbances, for example, and they focus on the protests in china. now i do care about the protest in the chinese cities, and i do hope our countrymen will suffer less inconvenience as a result of the imposition of the dynamics. 0, call the policy. but i also hope the protesters each other will realize that there is a higher good to be achieved for greater stability, greater health and less deaths among the chimes people, because other adamic wellness had overnight, the african continent continent,

kenya has begun hosting yet another route of peace talks to try resolve a conflict in the democratic republic of congo near the border with rwanda. negotiations include that row on the and several other countries within the east and african community. but notably the main insurgent group, 5 thing in the completely m 23 was not invited to this ran of folks after previous circled clenched in the angle in capital luanda failed to take hold. lowville reporter armande aquinos and of this report gathering in nairobi. it hardly deborah willis, dano amory for increase on security. the eastern b or c as just kicked off in mid will be today. these come to the week of the pending and hopefully get us what our fees are now posing as a threat to the sustainability of the into if we can community the if he had a physical meter to walking, to get into that piece into us in the region,

meanwhile, the country that i'm saying they want a piece, i thought how committed to walking together to ensure that commitment escalate in the eastern yet see the m t m b 3 will do to avoid expressed interest in making the for president looking at the in maryville, missouri, and we have never attacked the state armed forces at all times. it has been the coalition of various military groups. there has attacked our positions, we are respectful of the ceasefire. we want a peaceful outcome for this crisis. and we take note of the summit in lawanda, we must tell the government to respect the ceasefire because we have taken note of this road map. we asked the facilitators to come and communicate with us because we want to communicate with them. we demand that they also listen to us, the people on the ground and hoping that the sort of unity by their leader would calculate it to please in the eastern vfc is done. we heard from caroline on dairy, a conflict management and international policy or as his expert at the canyon,

the university nairobi she express high hopes for the talks. oh yeah. well that is going to be quite substantial. latimer, it comes, oh wow. the development of the piece and we all that of course basically b c t. now that is a member of based africa corporation. of course they suffered operations. all the ad pool is to see that the member. i'm a strong in there or need to quite a while. now, these are some of that absolutely necessary to, you know, that you see, we want to say a strongly strong yes. a way that they suffer under region able to grow that say on the

continent. namibian authorities have pulled down a statue, little 19th century german mentality, the, the activists have slammed as a symbol of colonial oppression. but the landmarks removal has actually elicited mixed feelings from local residents. i personally feel like a stitch of good for french all was supposed to be taken down please. so we back in independence with the power to minority people this stuff with i don't personally think it's a good idea to remove statues and things that are mine own history. but i understand the viewpoint of people who feel it doesn't represent the countries and it's not what you want to portray. so i, i can see that point of view. and you know, if it gets removed to probably go somewhere where we go to few history, like on like a museum, we should still have

a place to for people to see those to see what the past was. germany last year says he had meant into committing genocide in namibia during the colonial era. i'm promised to pay more than a 1000000000 euros as a gesture of atonement. but namibia has been trying to negotiate the deal. say is insufficient local journalist jamal, because germany has not yet made adequate payments to new orleans. who deserve restitution. is an overwhelming demand from young people, wanted the colonized history, and they feel that especially given that germany has not played or is refusing to pay it as is to modify the effect that is and to communicate directly to the effect of communities. they feel that he says need to be moved. the youth in particular feel that all such is all currently,

i guess need to be moved. people need to understand why this taken down, because it, when it was taken down, it started and people started asking why, even some people didn't even quite understand what friendship was. so people started to ask for some friends or was those that you know, and those who didn't know that he was responsible for the death of many. now women and children and me in the you do not need any form of reminder in the and you reminding the form of a step 2 of a german or colonial commander. to be the mind of the genocide that to place your a for publican. lawmakers who recently won control of the lower house of gong was what the by the administration to provide oversight with arms supplies. you claim washington has already sent new $20000000000.00 where the weapons to give, but only 10 percent of those shipments have actually been monitored by the

americans. the fact is, we are going to provide more oversight, transparency and accountability. we're not going to write a blank check. we have a voice now, and we're going to do this in an accountable way, which transparency to the american people. these are american taxpayer dollars going in waller, but because of not called an end to us, arm supplies the grain, they say most of the weapons and not being accounted for the white house claims it simply has a very limited budget for providing enough oversights. however, according to the washington post, jo, i'm has visited, sending an increasing number of american spaces deep into ukraine, supposedly out of fear of provoking toughness falls from russia and escalating the conflicts. now some of the weapons center ukraine are any, are being sold on the black market where they can be acquired by terrorist that's

according to a top law enforcement official from the k, which is also being sending consechi. ukraine has been well known as a new tourist hub for arms trafficking, even before russia's military operation began in february. for president security policy on this, michael maloof says the my than the biden administration's reluctance to thoroughly track of the weapons. it sounds to crane can lead to drastic consequences in europe . they cannot keep track of what is being sent and they have no intention of it. so good luck to the republicans or when they get into the house to get any kind of information. yeah, they could use the budget as a weapon, but ok, so a little bit will be eked up, but they're not going to get the satisfaction they want. and this is what we're going to have again, we break which this is the scheme we sent in the advisors and, and before long, it escalates and biden may for once have some

ability to understand that that concern and may be reluctant to do so. when you have contractors in there, you are u. s. trained contractors from the united states. greek let's say retired military out of the iraq war. busy out of afghan war and they have that it, that they had that experience, they could be going in and actually providing training of ukrainians within the country. and, and of course that makes them at an at u. s. government expense, i, my dad, and as a consequence of the europeans, as well as the us, are going to suffer in the us is actually profiting from there, from the european misery. and that's what we're seeing right now. well, the 3 of them will cut news them. a camera roonan footballer has responded to the

western medias, scathing criticism of his decision to web boost bearing and depiction of the russian flag at the world cup. amid the conflict in ukraine mil midfielder gale endure, has pointed out that he grew up in russia. and despite the flag, has long been a tradition of his that's offered no wages. commentate and lashed out of the choice with fire shows a complete lack of tact and tone and understanding of the strange situation that europe is in the stands out as a provocation for an extremely large number of people. i want to emphasize that the russian flag depicted on them is a sign of respect for the country in which i grew up and received my football education. i've been playing it boots with the russian flag for many years, and i am not going to break this tradition. the birth thing should both a flag of russia and the foot bullet, names of cameroon, and could be seen during a match against severe endure hires. maintain that the russian flag was not

a political statement and is why the western media criticism fever officials have decided not to step in. in our well cut controversies, the us soccer federation has come under fire for briefly altering the rate the iranian fly in a social media post to support process. and that is the mac republic, but was ahead of a match between the 2 countries. measures taken regarding the islamic republic of iran flag are against international line morality, and we'll pursue this. defeat is morality committee. they must be held responsible . obviously, they want to effect their rounds performance against the u. s. by doing this, it comes from the usual american arrogance. they feel that they are exceptional and that they can decide for the rest of the world. there are many protests in the united states, whether it's black lives matter, or the 6th of january protests that we're in washington. and the iranians never

use that opportunity to change the american flag in solidarity with any particular group. if you run in the right hand side, there's something russians do something, they'll be punished for westerners, they, they will, they will, can don't that. i mean, when it comes to iran, that sort of thing doesn't happen. all americans do is they just remove the tweet or they change the flag again. and the problem is, if it's, if they buy the western is violate the rules. nothing happens if non western countries obey the rule, but they become disliked by western, they can be expelled altogether. coach all the us national team. i apologize for the controversy and tried to smooth over the situation. i don't pride conference, check out that story of many of those from around the world on our website. the

don't call it was great to have you with us here at sea will be back on the top of the hour with more of a documentary about the young god, who were an organization to resist. ok. 5, the don't bus with what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy even foundation, let it be an arms race. who is on offense. very dramatic development only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult. i'm time to sit down and talk. ah

ah, ah ah. letter to you no one, no son. hon. hello, job. no, no. what go more shrill than what they should end up? unit 73. 1 was a unique organization in the history of the world. what they were trying to do was
