well peter greste is a free man. he is currently with our brother, mike in sip rest where he's gathering his thoughts at the moment. he is safe healthy, and very very happy to be on his way home. i have spoken with him recently and we wanted -- and first, he wanted to thank all the people who have supported him. who have given time money, energy, in seeking his freedom. peter also wanted to mention the work that the australian government has done the foreign minister julie bishop the concierge and management group, and adequacy adore ralph king who was not going to leave egypt until he was free. and i know ralph particularly went out of his way, he personalized this and just can't thank him enough for his support, and also to his wife for their fine hospitality and friendship that they've offered us while all the family. >> i've been speaking to a fellow al jazeera reporter if she's had a chance yet to speak to peter greste. >> i haven't spoken to him. he's talking to my colleagues now in cyprus but everyone's trying

and peter is dealing with it you know as best he can. thinking of all sorts of possibilities of what he might be able to do within the confines of his situation. >> and, i nine he has bad days no doubt about it. he pulls himself up. he was talking to us about it the last time we were there, saying that when he does have a bad day, he knows he's telling himself that the next day will be good and it always is. there are good days coming up. even if he has a bad day. >> what can you tell us about diplomatic efforts to get peter out of gaol and back to australia? >> i don't think it's an exaggeration to say we continued to look into a dark void although at the same time we feel that we are doing anything we can to get peter back home. we do know that an intense diplomatic matter is going on. the governments continued to be made on peter's behalf. it's not as if we are treading water all the time and hoping for the best. and yet in its own strange way, there is - there appears to be little traction. that, of course doesn't help to lower stres

no date set. >> peter greste is trying to get deported but it has not happened yet. for who is egyptian no such opportunity exists. for the time being, the focus is on paris. the question is being raised - why aren't western leaders exercising pressure on the egyptian governments over the innocent journalists. >> all the leaders who marched for free speech in paris were hypocritical. they are not putting pressure op. and the success of the egyptian tactic of locking up these journalists with judges who do whatever the government wants, and are keeping them in gaol is likely to be followed by other regimes. >> this journalist would agree with the sentiment. he was locked up in ethiopia for trying to report on an internal group hostile to the government. free speech he believes should exist and rights defended. >> if you look at egypt. this is possible. there's no political, financial, diplomatic. you still get a huge respect, from the international community, and are doing exactly the same thing. it's evidence sent to journalists as terrorists. most people would agree

we are immensely relieve that had peter's out of detention that peter is currently on his way with his brother home to be reunited with his family. the strength and recivilians of his friend and families for this extraordinary amount of time for this extraordinary jib justice meted out to them. an irony, there is no celebration of the release of an innocent man. peter, a wonderful journalist, guilty of nothing but carrying out the best journalism in the world, and yet has spent 400 days behind bars, so immensely relieved but the other thing we've got to focus on today is that the two other are still behind bars, the same injustice being amongst the world's best journalists and yet still are behind bars. and seven other of our colleagues sentenced to 10 years in absentia outside egypt are still imprisoned today. the response has been immense from politicians from the media around the globe and from hundreds of thousands of people who care about their right to be informed care about the freedom of speech and care about the fact that they have a right to be heard. that solidarity has been

it's great to see that peter is going to get out of prison.course, we are still very concerned about mohammed fahmy. and baher mohammed. we are hearing there is a good chance fahmy will be released once he revolks his egyptian citizen. we would hope he would not have to do. but the most important is getting him out of jail. >> do you think your government has done enough in pushing for his release? could they have done more do you think? >> that's tough. we fought with our government a lot through this process. it was difficult to get them fully involved. we still have been unable get them to publically call for the release of these journalists. they say that they have been doing things through the back channel. john baird did go over to egypt on a trip and apparently pushed for fahmy's release while he was there. whether that happened what they have been doing in the background, we really don't know. their very secretive about that. >> behind the reluctance that you put forth? >> that's been a complete mystery to us because obviously, the agg

peter greste, baher mohamed and mohamed fahmy peter and baher were given a seven year term, mohamed a ten year. (f) peter says we still have no idea when the retrial will begin or how long it might take. so while we remain strong and determined to do whatever it takes to clear our names and win our freedom 400 days still feels far too long to correct an injustice. al jazeera's wayne hay sat down with peter greste's parents in australian city brisbane. >> a complete sense of disbelief. a complete sense of disbelief. yet here it is as you say 400 day. it is a very bitter very sad reality. >> and lois you have just come back with spending two months in cairo and visiting peter on several occasions. how does he seem now? >> we've always known he is a strong person, very pliable you could say the word, and coping with all sorts of situations. you know you've got to be when you're a foreign correspondent in many ways. and this is just another one of those. and peter's dealing with it as you know as best he can thinking of all sorts of possibilities of what he might be able to do within the

to take peter's point, we certainly did not fight communism per se, or fascism per se. the point i'm making, not knowing what communism is, not knowing what nazism is that's more like the position that we're in right now. knowing the ideology allows us to separate and address things one by one. >> peter, if they are -- if isis is such a threat to so many other muslims and middle easterners, why not let them take on the struggle? >> i think another very different debate which is how much of a threat this is. i think that's another issue one which you've seen obama take a different position than many of his republican critics. i don't think obama thinks isis is a potential real threat but i don't think he believes that it is as great a threat as al qaeda was the day before september 11th, for instance. so i think obama's calculation about the amount of power he's willing to expend in fighting it is different. if you really believe isis was as great of a threat as many republican presidential hopefuls are saying, we should be sending ground troops. i don't think the eviden

they've let peter greste go, but of course, mr. fahmy who's position is exactly the same, he's no longer an egyptian citizen, he's a canadian, seven years imprisonment on trumped up charges, he should follow, and so logically and legally, he should be deported next week, and it will be down to the al jazeera one on february 23 now it's before some very poor, lousy judges. in fact at the first level of egyptian authority who are really government officials and know what the government decides, it can get away with. hopefully in any kind of legal system, you have an appeal court, which earlier this week gave its reasons for quashing the conviction of the al jazeera three. it said there was no evidence of terrorism. there was no evidence of any connection with the banned muslim brotherhood so it's the prosecution, which of course is directly linked to the government have any decency or sense of law, they will drop the charges february 23. the court would actually throw them out. we are in a political situation not a legal one. it's as

peter greste has been released, deported and let's hope that mr. fahmy in the next week or so between the next hearing an february 23 follows him. there's no logical difference between the two men the evidence or non-evidence against them is the same. they've both got seven years. mr. fahmy has now shed his egyptian citizenship so he's a full blooded canadian and as mr. greste is full blooded australian so there is absolutely no difference to i hope the decent and logical thing will be done in the next week and mr. fahmy on his why to his home in canada. today's proceedings do, for all the happiness i imagine that the families have that they are out on bail, mr. fahmy has to post $33,000, but that won't be difficult, i'm sure, for all that happiness we still face a cat and mouse game being played by the egyptian authorities successfully because they have suppressed any reporting of the opposition to presidency see's authoritarian rule, and that was the whole object of this frame-up of innocent journalists going about doing their job what the egypti
