now back in january of 2020, the u. k issued an official extradition request for her, which my palm pay. oh, who was secretary of state at the time denied that request? is this a reflection of the extradition imbalance? not only between the u. s a u. k, but it would appear that when you look at any random country, the u. s. asked for anybody for any reason that country almost always acquiesces, but it's not true the other way around. yeah, that's exactly right. and we should also be clear that in the case of julian, as i mentioned before, he's not a us citizen. and he did not commit a crime. so the hypocrisy is not limited to this case. there are numerous cases, including the case of hoss on the stuff of some a nasir in milan, which i can go into if you want in 2003. the u. s. has one set of rules for others. another set of rules for themselves are more to come with chris hedges . don't go anywhere. chris. coming up next. the united states keeps extradition numbers under wraps. the mystery around just how many people the

of those extradited to b. u. s. does it appear that the u. k. has sort of relinquished its sovereignty of jurisdiction due to decades old extradition treaties with the u. s. and that julian is a victim of that, among other things. well, from the beginning for those of us who have followed the case closely, this has been judicial farce. there are all sorts of legal anomalies that should have invalidated this case. a long time ago we can begin with the fact that julian has not committed a crime. he didn't do anything different from what the new york times the guardian dare spiegel. and l p. s. did when they published the iraq war logs. remember that's what he's being charged with under the espionage acts. 17 count. so it's 170 years if he's convicted on all counts on another 5 years for hacking into a government computer, although he didn't hack into a government computer. chelsea manning leak the documents did not need to hack into the computer or chelsea manning had done all of the passwords security clearance to get into the computer to to pass

ah, most of them are delivered to the e. u and the rest of the u. k rex. it was a shock for founder george loudon. one of the 1st things that, that i said was maybe we're going to have to move the workshops over over to the south of our lives. the, you know, be, we're gonna have to do that so far that hasn't been necessary. and i hope not only have a quick look at it because northern ireland remains in the single market. louden can continue exporting to the you bought some of the most expensive guitars now need an additional license when they are shipped to mainland britain before brags it. that was not the case. in the end, we find out that there were some there. there had been a small number of restrictions between ourselves, the u. k. a directly as a result of graduate. well businesses, the northern ireland are benefiting from being inside the u. single market. great britain is still northern ireland biggest trading partner. so any french in, at the board of course is concerned the british government and the european union have recently agreed to reduce

that of course, you know, expand the reach if you like. but the u. k. has been trying to find new areas to trade with the realities that of those 11 countries right now in this partnership, 9 countries already have agreements with the u. k. some of them had been rolled over after we left the you. so they were, the result of breck said, so we tried to do more or less, what was there in terms of agreement within the you in those countries. but there are only 2 countries that we haven't made any agreements with so far on the trade fronts and those on malaysia in brunei. so that's probably why the gains and g d p are so small, but there have been no deals that we have signed. will recently, in addition to the 69 that we've rolled over so, so there is a lot of activity going on to just a guess. you know, the, the world to believe that this is global britain. but of course, the loss of the trade or some of the, your trade is much more significant in terms of its impact on g p. what tells us a little bit more about the, about how much trade is being lost and ho

of the e. u. the australia deal was the 1st trade agreement negotiated by the u. k. since breaks it, the u. s. is a significant trading partner accounting for at least 16 percent of total u. k. trade. but a free trade deal between the 2 nations has told. well, johnny is now from london, is vicki price, who is the chief economic advisor at the center for economics and business research? vicki, welcome. by its own reckoning, the u. k. government estimates this will increase economic outputs by less than 0 point one percent. so really just how significant is this? i think the significance is mainly not highlighting the fact that the u. k wants to be a global player rather than necessarily the implant you may have on g d p, and hopes that that will lead to maybe more tre deals with more countries, possibly even joining. there's thought to ship them in their suggestion, the south korea and maybe china. my do so as well. of course, you know, expand the reach if you like to, you. k has been trying to find new areas to trade with the realities that of those 11 countries right now in this partnership, 9

u. k allows brakes it to get in the way of the peace deal that there won't be a trade deal, which the u. k needs post breakfast. so biden's really and he's really pushing his irish routes. so i think it's going to be central to how this plays out. all right, my colleague for kuhn and thank you very much. let's go now to some of the other global business stories making headlines. tesla will build a new factor in shanghai to produce large scale batteries. the roughly the size of a shipping container and can power $3600.00 homes for an hour when demand from the local power grid is high or during a blackout. elan mosque has pledge to expand energy storage business to be on par with the company's car operations. german employers association has rejected a trade union demand for a 4 day work week with the same pay for employees in the german steel sector. bosses say it would lead to exorbitant cost increases that would also make german steel companies uncompetitive and could endanger jobs. our world bank and international monetary funds, spring meetings are taking place this week like on the a

there had been a small number of restrictions between ourselves, the u. k. a directly as a result of graduate. well businesses, the northern ireland are benefiting from being inside the u. single market. great britain is still northern ireland biggest trading partner. so any freaked in at the border causes concern the british government and the european union have recently agreed to reduce trade checks at the board at a minimum that helps importers in northern ireland, such as mac brown, who's deli and belfast, has been in his family for 3 generations for him, it is more difficult now to receive some products, like certain cheeses, from small producers in england in scotland. sometimes there's a delay. you don't know if you're going to cara. i was going to get stopped. and, you know, the fact is i need that, you know, very quickly on of those get delayed. you know, you sometimes have to like, return it and say, i'm sorry, but i mean us for days been delivered. fresh fruits discarded and yet insecurities of a breck said remain. some politicians are still unhap

u. k. of course, you know, quite a high profile incident that some folks storm the indian high commission and they took it on the flag and they were going to put the color some flag and then of cetera. so it was a high profile in sit in india last a strong purposed. ah, and the british i think, are going to certainly not onwards. look at these cases with a much closer to michael school than they were doing earlier into the cases. what see in the asylum and u. k. best separate is what the activities are. usually several of them are within very much deep space. awful, all freedom of expression, et cetera. and the u. k. may not have any laws or legal instruments through uno. all them up, all meant by some, you know, you k based on, i'm in the west, broadly speaking right on india, especially human rights and democracy. ah, that is a, that is not being looked really favorably in india for discussion in india in the media's especially also the television media of the print media that the west has i

u. k. 's involvement in the last summer genocide. now this ridiculous response also highlights the a bankruptcy of the u. k. policy on some ivy. i think what's also worth noting is that the funding of training and equipment for somebody land from the u. k stopped in 2020 amnesty international say to more than 600 people have been injured in the recent fighting. and so my land security forces are currently to blame somali land security forces indiscriminately shall the town damaging hospitals, schools and mosques killing. and during civilians and displacing tens of thousands of people among the civilians killed were women. children, older people with health conditions and health care workers. they were mostly killed during indiscriminate attacks involving rockets, mortars and other explosive weapons with wide area effects, which should never be used and populated areas. but apparently the u. k. government does a see any problem with this of the whole approach to the region, which is still the part off. somalia is quite controversial. and although landon doesn't recognize the independence of somali land, it treats the region as i
