journalist glenn greenwald is best known for publishing the documents disclosed by the whistleblower edward snowden greenwald is currently in moscow for cyber security conference he says much of america's political class truly believes russia is the number one enemy. there's an obsession in the united states with viewing russia not just as an adversary but as an actual anime it's permeated both political parties there's actually talk a lot now about how what they regard as the interference in the two thousand and sixteen election is similar to pearl harbor when the japanese attacked the united states during world war two or our.

american journalist green a rolled up best known for publishing documents from whistleblower edward snowden he says that much of america's political class truly believes that russia is the number one enemy. there's an obsession in the united states with viewing russia not just as an adversary but as an actual enemy it's permeated both political parties there's actually talk a lot now about how what they regard as the interference in the twenty six thousand election is similar to pearl harbor when the japanese attacked the united states turned world war two or al-qaeda and nine eleven and so there's this sense that russia is now an enemy on par with al qaeda or the japanese during world war two russia is often talked about this way in the sense that any kind of connection with or interaction with russia is viewed as inherently suspicious or even worse and it's extremely dangerous and extremely toxic and it's one of the reasons why i decided to come here and this morning posted a picture of myself and snowden because i think it's very important to combat that and to. thank you joining us your

colluding with the west inspired global surveillance plane not as we know from the whistleblowing of edward snowden and one of his earliest disclosures was the prism program it is a meshing between the core person the states of ale and this incredibly close now across the west so all i can say to russia is welcome to the. u.s. government has said guantanamo prisoners it could be held without charge indefinitely the story and much more still to come you are watching our two international. doogan is an outstanding person because he took on the most powerful agency in his county or you'll be the state if you look at it from the book. mark was the day that when he was five of the. most contentious critics the first time i noticed something wasn't right. pretty much when he first started the corruption in palm beach county is not something that you can smell or. it's. the way it wasn't what i wanted to do you know. we've had more shootings in this county then some states have had collected and went to his website began featuring. his family the sheriff's wife. squash you like a book you know i wish you'

whistleblower edward snowden who revealed most of what we know about the agency's operations back in two thousand and thirteen snowden called the intercept report the most important surveillance story you will see for years and it's not just a t.n.t. as customers in the u.s. affected by this is it far from it according to the report eighteen c. processing centers also allow the n.s.a. access to traffic from a partner companies who use their infrastructure for efficiency reasons including overseas palm such as deutsche telekom india's tata communications and telecom italia a spokesperson for the n.s.a. told the intercept it could neither confirm nor deny its role in alleged classified intelligence activities moving out of pakistan now and a news outlet that suddenly developed distribution problems shortly after publishing criticism of one of the country's most powerful institutions the military what's the story there it concerns dawn newspaper which is pakistan's oldest newspaper dohrn play. pakistan's military for blocking distribution confiscating copies of the paper and even threat

that is why edward snowden lives in moscow and not washington.: to that end, a twitter follower asks, is the freedom of the press the freedom of anyone to print or the freedom of one to print anything? >> to go back to justices black and douglas, the constitutional provisions as congress shall make no law, but there are obvious areas where there are laws that govern and relate to the freedom of the press. it is not just the freedom of press, but freedom of speech. those are very much overlapping, especially in today's world. freedom of speech and freedom of the press and who is a journalist and who can publish what, those are very, very blurry lines. there are all sorts of litigation that come out that it is very different -- difficult to distinguish in some ways. >> in some ways it is meeting less and less, which is to say in social media, we live in a world now where we are not asking all the time anymore are you a journalist or not. you have information, you want to talk about it? you either have a right or you don't have a right, and you gene

. >> when russia gave edward snowden asylum, it was within days that president obama canceled a summit with putin. so there is precedent for this. >> the fact for any foreign government to interfere in our election system and for a white house, regardless of party, not to be basically saying the house is on fire and this is not acceptable is shocking. the fact that the republican leadership is not basically calling foul is also shocking. the fact that it's only right now democrats is concerning. what is happening right now to our election system, the integrity of our election system. that is what encourages people to participate. our democracy is so strong as long as the american people believe that when they cast a vote it's going to be counted and no one is going to mess with it and that is a huge challenge. >> i guess, charlie, the thing that i'm stuck on is there's actually a political case to be made that it's in the president's best interests not to do the summit. for appearance's sake, going through with it looks like you're winking and nodding. showing some outrage and that you

back then, if you remember, the discussion was all about edward snowden, that type of thing. then, charlie have don't happened and i have not heard that since. maybe it is the serious nature of the threat of terrorists and the need to maintain strong partnerships. do you believe that our intelligence gathering and sharing and cooperation is as strong as it was before charlie hebdo? >> our cooperation is exceptionally strong. >> so again, that is a positive outlook in terms of what a relationship is. talk a little bit about -- this goes back to a conversation we had in our office. the different approach that both russia and china use versus the u.s. when it comes to investing in foreign countries. >> i think the russians and chinese have done a better job than the west collectively in the last few years, integrating matters of commerce into a geopolitical vision. the chinese in particular tend to view commercial investments abroad as a matter of state. my perception is that the chinese have tended to approach these questions with a much more long-term filter or framework in mi
