and then meet in belmarsh prison so we expect the british high called to reject. the u.s. and to all the julian assange it's. ok but we will i mean it is likely isn't it that this case will now go to appeal the u.s. will have another opportunity to state his case to another judge in a higher court what are your expectations that. jailing a songe is extradition remain blocked and also the other. the other recommend that the judge made all about the fact that if you're a journalist you shouldn't be allowed to basically publish classified information trying to use the defense of it's in it's in the public interest. indeed we are still very concerned by the general mentation of the british call didn't didn't. take into consideration all the good reasons you know to release. julian assange. as a journalist you know just as an actor or. actor in any case there are some discussions on the fact is he a journalist or easy you. know in any case he committed a journalistic act you know by revealing. more crimes. by the u.s. government in. iraq and afghanistan so you know our view he

and he felt conditions that if to listen to isn't granted bail he will have to return back to belmarsh prison while the u.s. appeal this extradition he has been stuck in film. prison serving up 50 a week sentence but actually double that almost now as one of the key motivating reasons to keep him in belmarsh prison is because they say he has a history of absconding just before the court proceedings began this morning but you know scientists maina supporters in the entire campaign to get him out of prison and to release him immediately have said that this court case could go either way today. we still do. lies ahead of us. in journalism doesn't find out what we were talking about this by concealing eventually us with the threat. told journalists all right. thank you meaning to michigan to say full bill thank you the remarkable. issues thank you could possibly feel as we called them with just the 2nd week. and. there's never been. a. decision thank you for being used so the chance. there's no motivation to. believe thank you very difficult child because the judge has certain rock she votes befo

was denying it was because the charts and heard that he was at greater risk from post at 19 in belmarsh prison. soapie a very tough challenge for the u.s. defense team to try and get him on well today to understand of course has been stuck in prison for serving that 50 week sentence but actually he's been now almost double that time because of his history of absconding to the decision to grant bail it's comes tension to the next also of course policy decision on monday based on medical grounds not on political grounds that seems to know why did contact actually a huge blow not just before the sun for the actually for journey. well why many say that this time you give it to you this has been going through has already had a hearing at that jenison on the freedom of press but also it's a brutal imitating journey as well why. we went that decision from westminster magistrates' court as soon as it comes in we'll bring it straight to our viewers could see it showed here at woodstock. you know the news the u.s. state of georgia is counting votes in a crucial race to decide who will control the americ

as long as julian has to injure suffering and isolation as an unconvicted prisoner in belmarsh prison and as long as our children continue to be the rest of their father's love and affection. we cannot celebrate. we will celebrate the day he comes home. but they face a very tough challenge indeed in the court because the judge has already refused bail application twice already the 1st one of the united states he said that he just started going through a dream an extraordinary lengths to avoid extradition so of course i'm referring to the fact that cheered us on skid row by going into london's ecuadorian embassy where he stayed for a whopping 7 and a half years they also said that they were quite worried that he would try and leave the united kingdom as well noting the fact that mexico had granted. political asylum as i say one of the stars follow this month monumental decision on monday as if they really does feel like a devil. especially taking into consideration the fact that yes the judge on monday ruled that the son would remain in the united kingdom but only based on medical grou

unlikely to present himself for justice she also stated that his mental health is being managed in belmarsh prison and that the prison has a code 1000 situation under control but that does not seem to be the case we've had alarming reports of the situation in the prison not have him nearly continuously in his cell for several weeks. and the evidence we heard in september about his state of mental health these are all issues that are made worse by detention so of course he should be released also the matter of principle is still here and for us we've called for some time for his unconditional release so not just because of these humanitarian concerns but as a matter of principle he has been detained only for publishing information in the public interest nobody should have to face what he has and it's been 9 years now and enough is enough this put could have made this right going forward and they failed to do so today. you know saga obviously is growing on the defense that it was the puppets right to access information what does that mean going forward so the implications of monday's decision and th

true. 6 as long as julian has to injure suffering in isolation as an unconvicted prisoner in belmarsh prison and as long as our children continue to be the rest of their father's love and affection. we cannot celebrate. we will celebrate the day he comes home a glimpse of hope to start the new year and hopefully a new era. it is a day. a day 0 with wind for julia songs. but we have. it just not necessarily a win for journalism so although today is a victory in essence for judas and the judge did of course say that it was not politically motivated enough a serious concern for jonas i'm going forward on the future of journalism as well i you know i spoke to rebecca vincent from reporters without borders and she says that journalists need to be protected so we read the very much and share the court's assessment of his serious mental health risk but we're concerned that the rest of the decision leaves the door open for possible other prosecutions on similar grounds because until that point until she came to that point of the decision it seemed very much that the case would have been in favor of

against this injustice when he's gone through 1011 years of hell 1st on the house arrest and in belmarsh prison for the simple crime of journalism which isn't a crime he's standing up for freedom of speech he's done nothing but tell the truth he's been treated as a political prisoner object or that it's mental health has suffered an unknown people opposed to him has said that that is the case this is this is not just about him personally it's about journalism it's about freedom it's about freedom of speech it's about freedom of the press and all those things are being undermined both in this country are by the actions of the people in the united states they're trying to get him to be extradited of pushing this action here was the right absolutely remarkable decision 95 percent of the judges are bars were in favor for us i mean favor of execution she threw my political the penalty threw out public interest depends only in the last moment for a decision that she cited the american prison system so brutal so fresh. you would be at risk of suicide if i sent him to be america or america sought help

gonna be saying about belmarsh prison conditions i'm going to shave the sleeve you rebecca i'm sure you've probably seen some of these just heard from judy and it's freezing in the south the hall just type system broke he says it's getting really really cold we're at a critical juncture we need to get him out of prison now with becca suits i mean it's appalling we've seen what he has faced a belmarsh prison now for some time and the judge's decision not to release him on bail is at odds with her extradition decision on monday we heard her detail these very mental health issues that will exist be exacerbated with a pro a longer period of detention she mentions that it would be worse and the u.s. prison conditions actually stated clearly that these issues have been present throughout his period of incarceration even with support such as frequent access to his family we know that he would not be given that in the u.s. and i'm sorry but i take issue with april saying we don't know what conditions he will face in the u.s. we heard days of expert testimony about that in september about what spec

unlikely to present himself for justice she also stated that his mental health is being managed in belmarsh prison and that the prison has a code $1000.00 situation under control but that does not seem to be the case we've had alarming reports of the situation in the prison not have him nearly continuously with his cell for several weeks now. and the evidence we've heard in september about his state of mental health peace are all issues that are made worse by detention so of course he should be released also the matter of principle is still here for us we called for some time for his son conditional release so not just because of these humanitarian concerns but as a matter of principle he has been detained only poor publishing information in the public interest nobody should have to face what he has in the front yourself enough is enough to put it this right going forward and they failed to do so today. the legal team always spacesuits. challenge convincing the u.k. court because the judge had already refused to accept any bail applications twice previously for for now the united states legal team

is most notorious prison of belmarsh prison because he has not been granted bail in all of this now judith on just the revenue that he said that they will be appealing this latest decision they say it's a great disappointment not to release him on bail they say it's unjust and unfair also we've heard from craig murry one of his key supporters a former u.k. ambassador has called it incredibly vindictive i think this is indicative i mean the prosecution in the. opposing fail to make a deal to play a fight with snowden on the part that gets through to. justice. they've made it very you play for them the damage to american national security the drug industry and the educated go. look this is plainly the security state looking to show its profits approve the street this is this is indicative it's not based on anything that's bullshit is on his defense team found this a very bitter pill to swallow especially considering that monumental decision just 2 days ago not to educate you in a song to the united states for them every. it was case closed in that sense because the put them particularly he n

well julian is times in belmarsh prison right now it's one of the u.k.'s worst prisons it's actually referred to as u.k.'s one time obey he is there right now in their sins and the judges expect i don't. think it's an homage and worry for the 2021 and we're very hopeful that president. probably going to issue a pardon to children innocence because there is no better way to stand up to the state democratic it's alice in the intelligence community who has been undermining president tom's presidency where the past 4 years then to issue a party to cheeriness ons. do you know was there been any response from the from the u.s. state department or any of the officials of the either were involved in this phone call or were privy to it to the release of this conversation and how does this change the official story line about. the release of those cables back in 200-2011. exactly it further to keep the fact that it's gone she took a census measured again to ensure that there was our reception and it also shows this prosecution based on our law in fact it was chris

well julian it's on his in belmarsh prison right now it's one of the u.k.'s work prison it's actually referred to as the u.k.'s guantanamo bay he's there right now in her working conditions and the judge is expected to make her final decision actually based in on a january 4th on the 21 so we're very hopeful that president truck was going to issue a pardon to children in a sauna because there is no better way to stand up to the gate the democratic establishment in the pool of reckoning telegin community who has been undermining president term presidency for the past 4 years and issue a pardon to during a sponge. i do know is there been any response from the from the u.s. state department or any of the officials but either were involved in this phone call or were privy to it to the release of this conversation and how does this strange the official story line about assad and the release of those cables back in point 2011. exactly it's further substantiate the fact that it's gone took a census measured again to ensure that there was our reception and it also s

freedom for years now he spent 7 years trapped in the ecuadorian embassy and now almost 2 years in belmarsh prison in london for the crime of journalism for the crime of revealing to all of us just how disgusting or a government is for the crime of revealing a war crimes for the crime of over revealing breathtaking corruption of the ruling elite for the crime of doing the job our mainstream media should be doing if they have even a shred of a tiny pubic hair of dignity and independence chuck todd randerson cooper sean hannity have done less journalism in their entire careers that julian assads did it with your legs before breakfast on an average day so while it's good news that the sun will not be extradited we also found out wednesday he would not be freed either 2 days after the judge admitted he's on the cusp of taking his own life the same judge ruled that he should be sent back to belmarsh prison it's. truly an evil decision she said he could not be released on bail during the lengthy appeals process despite the fact that authorities could put him on house arrest with an ankle bracelet prohib

even more worrying because the break in there in belmarsh prison so yeah it's difficult to understand but these are the sichuan that can be appealed and i understand the appeal is going to take place soon and so then when it comes down to that tension the thinking that president trump or is even president elect biden may not even go 1st if ordered the appeal but is there any chance there could be a part in all of this. well i hope that's also a possibility and he should be. just to do either for president tran before he goes from the new elected president he gets in power to drop the persecution drove the persecution against journalism this is not just again julian assange to the man who humiliated him exposing the world but he's a rule against journalists so that possibility is there and i hope that independently of what happens in this british judicial system the persecution to stop this talk about the new say of war on journalism as well on monday the final ruling was space the only on mental health grounds that the charge going and accepting every single argument of the united sta

holed up in not exactly door into the sea for a whopping 7 and a hope is that he was put into a belmarsh prison for almost 2 years and his mental and physical health has been seriously deteriorating but it wasn't just his mental and physical health here in the united kingdom but what could happen to him if he were to be sent to the united states he would have had to serve that sentence if found guilty and convicted in any text colorado jail that's one of america's most notorious jails in fact home to some of the world's was criminal last march drug kills terrorists you name it there in that most notorious prison and that's exactly where judy an assault was going to be had it so that huge sentence that prospect of the future like that was something that really bent the judeans mental house was really at breaking point i his lawyer says that he was having suicidal tendencies and was hundreds of times a day so that is pretty much the key reason why the judge today said that that is so stupid that's of faith that he was not going to be facing having said that as i do mention it's not in terms of jo
