Im here in the center of london with protesters who are opposing the possible extradition of julian assad to the u. S. We watch from australia house as australian of course to Parliament Square and you can see behind me theres a lot of talks going on and some entertainment in support of putin now this is of course the center of british democracy and supporters they gathered here ahead of the wiki leaks founder hearing on call in court on monday people are. Serious this. Its a crazy. Its more freedom its about the future of. Journalism. Of. Journalists. Have to be able. To be decided whether he is indeed extradited to the u. S. He could be facing 175 years in prison for leaking documents. Accusing him of hacking a u. S. Government computer and leaking classified documents back in 2010 now he has an awful lot of high profile supporters and they worried about. Showing everybody how totalitarian they really are by saying your crime is that you publish crimes american war crimes that you published america more crimes now that its not a crime its in the Public Interest this is what im saying america is not democracy a tall told will shout i think all hes done is provided. A safe place for information to go on i dont think hes committed a crime at all what governments want to know is total control of information and that means they dont want dissidents they dont they want what looks like a free press so it can sort of tell nasty stories about football as well. Ive seen that kind of thing but its not free at all when it comes to talking about things that matches the people here its a question of the freedom of speech journalists have spoken out and said that thats all hes doing hes doing what other journalists do they cant understand why hes in prison at the moment in belmarsh prison they seem as a hero hes already spent 7 years at the Ecuadorian Embassy for asylum wanted to avoid going to jail but now he has been arrested by the British Police reaching bail conditions his house his physical and Mental Health is apparently deteriorated quite badly that experts from around the world they think that the u. K. Handling of him morning that song is being subjected to psychological torture in jail more than 100 medics have signed a joint letter urging authorities to take action as i said many high profile supporters and they are very proud of his. Courage by the people who come out and. Maybe it may just be that the tide is turning left with you that you could. You know you say what worries everybody here today because they dont believe mainstream america they dont believe. Me a campaign the street level. Us media are throwing yet more milling accusations at moscow this time its the democrats front runner for the 2020 president ial election hes being dragged in Bernie Sanders is leading the polls ahead of the next nomination vote in the state of nevada the Washington Post claims through unnamed sources that hes receiving russian help for his campaign. It was not clear what role theyre going to play we were told that russia may be other countries are going to get involved in this campaign and look heres the message to russia stay out of american elections. Well seizing the moment one democratic rival billionaire Mike Bloomberg has jumped on the report to target saunders online posting his 2016 president ial Campaign Slogan feel the burn in russian. The other end of the political spectrum the New York Times has published claims that the us president is also a benefactor of alleged russian help from flatly dismissed those allegations did you see that i see these stories these the do nothing democrats they said today that gotten wants to be sure that trump gets elected here we go these people are crazy. And moscow for its part has ridiculed the report and said it expects to see many more such claims in the run up to the election so as to tailor takes a closer look now at the latest actions. Dear diary i know i can be a bit of a warrior you know better than anyone but this time i really think we might have a serious. Situation on our hands it is the conclusion of multiple u. S. Intelligence agencies that the Russian Federation is once again trying to interfere in our 2020 alexion our president ial election again to try to elect donald trump the russians off to american democracy again and theres just so much evidence to back it up this time in a closed meeting undisclosed intelligence officials told congress that most who wants to keep orange one in the white house for another flu year is and 5 unnamed people who apparently are in the loop told us so its a sure thing i turned on the t. V. And everyones quoting it a bombshell revelation just makes me panic more than americas democracy once again under attack by a foreign adversary new revelations about russian efforts to interfere in the 2020 election with the hope of getting the president president reelected and also to make americans doubt the integrity of the election process this is not a 4 year ago flashback folks this is 2020 and the media would so panic would jump on the bandwagon just to boost their ratings that would be unconscionable wouldnt it i know youll say im im spiraling but can you see how but not proof this latest report is i mean i agree i did read the article which published the info for us and there isnt a single concrete fact or piece of evidence provided but they promise it will all come to light soon both republicans and democrats the intelligence agencies to hand over the underlying material that prompted the conclusion the rush is again favoring mr trump selection how soon the House Committee might get that information is not clear and if that wasnt convincing enough triumph id the director of National Intelligence and replaced him with a man who supports him that cant be a coincidence can it i mean thats basically admitting that hes a kremlin stooge and the president of the United States is now helping the president of russia help the president of the United States. To get reelected now i dont want to exaggerate or anything but this is a National Emergency we are now in a full blown National Security crisis by trying to prevent the flow of intelligence to Congress Trump is abetting a russian covert operation to keep him in office from moscows interests not americas and politicians are panicking to it so seriously even tweeted about it poor hillarys also chimed in still a bit saw over the whole 26 didnt tast i suppose putins popular is at it again taken russian help for himself he knows he can win without it and we cant let it happen i mean this is someone fat the democrats are just being unlucky the mourner report was a boston pietschmann felt flat on its face but still how could anyone pick trump over that and just tick inspiring democrat candidates on offer take joe biden for example sure hes got a chance on approach but hes clearly a good parent and thats got to count for something right then does Michael Bloomberg sure he made a few crude comments apparently about women back in the eightys but these were different times now hes just a good old 2 clean billionaire and Bernie Sanders ah good old bunny mo was giving his honest opinion when he allegedly said a woman couldnt become a president no no the more i think about it the clearer it is a trump 2020 victory could only have the kremlins fingerprints all over it. Diary what a disaster. Marks abrams from the Queens Institute for responsible state craft believes the allegations of being used to discredit. Well theres a lot of hysteria right now about russian interference and American Power to tax in basically this idea this allegation has been weapon dealer general myers kiran its the american was stabbed me does not lie so we saw this against donald trump it increasingly now were seeing here. Suck its a little bit like a husing someone being a terrorist its very the mole and its used instrumentally any other church reduce their support or the nature of these allegations are always very civil the details are very sketchy theyre made by a lot of very secure these officials. In the Mainstream Media and i think that theres a real effort to use this power game show to try to see Bernie Sanders who is the front runner not just in nevada but nationwide on the democratic ticket. In more on the race for the white house the Washington Post is facing a backlash for overplaying the importance of the top one percent of the head of the election on that in just a minute. And emergency e. U. Budget summit has been seen the blocks leaders fail to agree on just how to make up the 75000000000 euro shortfall left by brics or. What has come out of this is that the differences are still too large to come to an agreement unfortunately we have to suspend this summit. These divisions are there we dont need britain for that they were playing out during the financial crisis a decade ago during the migration prices were now seeing them on budget issues. The spark calls for compromise on all sides in fridays negotiations Member States were not able to overcome 2 fundamental areas of disagreement the 1st they can point is the bloc socalled frugal 4 do not want the e. U. Budget to be higher than one percent of its Gross National income and those countries denmark austria sweden and the netherlands also want to keep receiving rebates on the contributions they pay to the e. U. In addition there is no consensus as to how the 7 year budget should be allocated a little commentator gave us his thoughts on the dispute. On the one hand it shows clearly now the division that has been only britain germany and only have one or 2 other countries that were met into the system were on the on the brakes when it came to inflating the budget and so on and this and the rest was taking and the rest was the majority but germany used to have together with britain. Would be top hour and this has been lost so now is there is no all no limit anymore germany and i think this is this has been secretly all over the time already but now with britain it really it goes away into the open and its for everybody else. Still to come this hour a developing story in italy where police have raided the room for top russian athletes well look at whats turned into a diplomatic route to this. The world is. Shaped by. The day or thinks. We dare to ask. Were still in an era of resource colonialism again this is a big risk and the one big thing that could really inhibit the kind of electric vehicle revolution that a lot of us want to see is if we cant resource the battery components in a sustainable ethical way then its not going to be a successful revolution. Ok back to the Program Human Rights groups of the morning but a British University suspends a mosque this program it runs with bahrains ruler academy of policing how to steal to give us the flaws economics to bahrain despite rights come by and is condemning the kingdom as a tool to help the prisoner abuse the rector for the Bahrain Institute for rights and democracy said the detailed allegations from 10 prisoners who allege they were tortured. We opened those testimonies which came to us directly from this into the prison behind your prison and somebody called us to give us the details of how those individuals or tortured this is im talking about the fears 10 testimony from the victims that are detailing how they were abused. There is a consistent account on many of them were subjected to physical and psychological torture some of them were subjected to electric shocks some of a lot of them where the naked during their interrogation they were blindfolded some of them and if they were raped and their sexually assaulted had their they make threats against their families and just last weekend i happen to know theyre my own family including my brother in law was subjected to torture at the Royal Academy this is what i got from his last chord. 2017 a u. N. Report called for the claims of torture and ill treatment of prisoners to be more thorough investigated of the previous complaints made by Rights Groups were not reviewed independently now the university refuses to confirm how much it is being paid by bahrains and its commercially sensitive it will give consideration to the requests that respond in the coming days we have also contacted the bahraini government and university to comment the right group says its repeatedly called for the course to be dropped. The British Government got to stop their own go and get training with Security Forces because if it did anything did the enlisted of improving the situation they just simply have them to cover up abuses the place where they teach the course is the place where the prisoners get tortured so its extremely serious allegations we have extremely strong evidence and can be even better fired within Asylum Seekers in britain. And other headlines at a time when police raided a hotel that houses a russian athletes as created a diplomatic spat it involves a champion russian biathlete who previously served a dope the Russian Embassy in italy has questioned the grounds of what happened the International Biathlon union has said it didnt request the search aunties eagles fan of scott but he told. All the scandal stems from the accusations of the personal coach of the russian biathlete del xander logan of that he used a fake or somebody elses accreditation to move around the competition site now he and Alexander Logan of himself have their hotel rooms searched by the police and their personal Electronic Devices were confiscated by the officers that includes the notebooks and mobile phones heres how to log in to a room may describe the situation as he witnessed it they didnt allow us to leave the room but they had no questions for me they took all of our devices put them on the table but they confiscated our exams devices to copy all the data from his phone and computer we asked them when they would return the devices they answered they didnt know and experts would analyze them and copy before i had a matter of seconds to message my teammates and coach now apparently the measures were taken out of suspicion that kasparov reached the coach that he used a fake accreditation to bring doping to bring Illegal Drugs to his athlete but when it comes to Alexander Logan of he does have a history of Substance Abuse he was banned from participating in competitions but then was reinstated the ban was lifted and he was back in the he was back i should say in the big sports but here this whole thing is turning into a bit of a diplomatic scandal because russia is saying that in this particular case the presumption of innocence has to be maintained and that no allegations no accuse ations or should be taken at face value and Alexander Logan for instance of that whole thing happened literally hours before he was shuttled to participate in a biathlon relay which he is still doing by the way he wasnt pulled from the team also russia has sent all sorts of less as the ministry to the Sports Ministry is involved they are demanding explanations as. As to why such measures are being taken and apply to the russian team but when its another nations team in question then a completely different set of measures is being taken and not as harsh as russia has to bear the french team also had the same situation at this world cup but their man was only fined 500. 00 euros and now the case has been exaggerated to an absurd level im 100 percent sure this was well planned now the International Biathlon union has launched a legal investigation a legal case against the russian team and against the coach so well have to see how their version of events fares in court we do have an update on that story just coming in from the Russian Embassy in italy saying the mitchell results of that search have not confirmed the presence or the use of any Substance Abuse or doping that is the news were just getting coming and obviously well keep across that story bring you any more details as we get. Back to the race for the white house in the state the Washington Post has also the headline which originally suggested the elites of politics on the financial world should play a key role in picking the next u. S. President comes after the outlet found itself in the spotlight on. Democracy dies in darkness and less darkness is what the elites need to rig an election in which case maybe democracy isnt all that great anyway there goes through unheard line that silence presents the wealthy are speaking. Or of the current us election system primaries take place at the beginning of an Election Year to select candidates in some states every citizen can vote and others only registered voters who are its not just the votes that secure the nomination its also down to the number of delegates they get depending on the size of the state legal and media analysts believe the article is simply a bold move for attention. 1st of all it was one of the most poorly constructed arguments ever i read it and i thought to myself i dont understand what this is suggesting so i gave it to a couple of by learned colleagues they dont know what it is either we dont know what exactly this is suggesting who are these elites this is a College Professor a ph d. Ph d. Stands for something as far as the Washington Post goes it is a rag it is a hospital mop it is it is it is nothing its it the glory days of your from watergate its over with not only that the print medium of this country newspapers are closing the New York Times is a joke so what you see right now was one last gasp effort to put something in there to get people to talk about it.
