That Julian Assange just days in the Ecuadorian embassy in London are numbered a claim which contradicts the statements made by President Lenin Moreno last week. He said we can be certain that this man who is an absolute hypocrite already has an agreement with the United States about what will happen to his sons and now he's just trying to sweeten the pill by saying he's going to have a dialogue I fear and I have said months ago that Assad just days in the embassy are numbered according to you Rafael Correa we hear Leaks founder Julian Assange has been staying in the Ecuadorian embassy in London since 2012 he was granted asylum by former president Cordray to help a songe avoid extradition to the United States where he would face the death penalty for charges of espionage and treason last week Ecuadorian president Leonie Moreno who was visiting Spain told reporters that assigns would eventually have to leave the embassy but argued that his exit had to be obtained through dialogue Moreno also confirmed ek Without has been engaging in diplomatic talks with the United Kingdom to determine a songes the.

You could I want President and you know to go has them damned Washington seem to fear and seen his country as violent protests have far lies the nation and disrupted plans for a peaceful dialogue you get out what has always been a target of u.s. Politics and several us agencies have prepared to people to be against descending east of government when you get a one head of state said in an interview with c.n.n. In Stanage or to go 2nd in the international media campaign that hides facts about what is happening in the center American nation he said Nic I was suffering from a powerful media war I don't see the international media doing an objective 1st directive on what is happening in me get out what the needed biggest said that the climate in the country has been improving since mid July when opposition that wrote blogs and and the state was able to restart essential services and citizens were able to return to work he also called for peace and dialogue as a way to overcome political crisis. Those reports were from radio have been to Cuba Cuba's web stream did not work this week at their website radio 8 see that see you but they're pod cast links have been restored and shortwave Cuba may be heard from noon to 1 pm at 15140 and from 5 pm to midnight I did either 616060 or 6000 on to Russia Sputnik radio on his program called going underground Afshin Rattansi interview John Perkins author of Confessions of an Economic Hit Man they discussed the future of BRICs nations that's Brazil Russia India China and South Africa trying to create a post-Imperial world free of u.s. Driven neo liberalism Perkins says that BRICs is providing an alternative to the i.m.f. And World Bank forcing them to soften the deals that they offer 3rd world nations they also talk about the current trade wars the Chinese silk road agenda and the increased militarism Sputnik radio. Well while the u.k. I'll give me debated food shortages off the BRICs it BRICs nations wrapped up a groundbreaking summit in South Africa last week what dangers lie ahead for Brazil Russia India China and South Africa trying to forge a post Imperial world free of u.s. Federal Reserve neoliberalism joining me from New Hampshire in the u.s. Is who else the former consultant link to the u.n. The i.m.f. And the u.s. Treasury John Perkins author of Confessions of an Economic Hit Man The shocking story of how America took over the world so back in your day when you were an Economic Hit Man How would you have responded to this new kid on the block seeming to undermine or these threatening to undermine the i.m.f. And the World Bank supremacy you know I mean we had a similar situation through the Soviet Union it was on the same by any means but there was and there was a balance so if we were to strike just push too hard and strong I mean it untrue like that said there were door to Lundy air Indonesia. Their governments I turned to the Soviet Union at no stage and force us to try to soften our approach and then after the Soviet Union collapsed in the early ninety's it World Bank the i.m.f. And their sister organizations had a monopoly and they really abused and I think that's a shame and they used it to we were exploiting the country even more now we've got to Ricks and we've got be a I have been in infrastructure investment banks and these banks have as our more financial power in fact in the room bank and it's just this and so in a way we're reaching a balance right think probably if I were if you were married today and I think Robert people who are at the right bank today are really having to look at how they need to soften their De Niro's what they need to do to be more competitive against these basically Chinese directed banks looking at it in ugly more a shadowy way the be in break Brazil is that is. Ready now run by a former CIA asset its most popular leader was in jail news every day against Jacob Zuma flooding mainstream media there are other ways to attack this BRICs do future Yeah it's a different cultist say exactly what the future will bring in this regard because the same time of course the u.s. Government is having this competitive it's almost like it's a tennis game or very but that very vicious tennis game with China with Europe with North Korea with Russia over trade wars in trade deals and I'm sure that some people at the World Bank and the others I mean just to sions are being very much played as cons in that game. I guess you have problems in tennis maybe I'm talking about a Test match you have and then I some of saying that that is the the old policies of divide and rule fail to actually start to unite the perceived enemies of that. And that paradigm is it was Russia and China rugby getting closer together in their relationship President Putin and I was with him in St Petersburg on a year ago at a conference there we were both speaking at night a lot of time with his top economic adviser they have very very sharp they're very kind in a very clever and you know there's no world leader they're not as much experience as president Putin 'd at least on a world leader of a major country with nuclear arms and I think it was very obvious that in the meeting between Putin and Trump who didn't want you know couldn't just make Trump look like an idiot so I'm sure the Putin and China are really looking at how they come together how they can face off no question that there's a huge predator Gee it's way too caused a stench and within the European Union what's supposed directed Britain going to have to do to get closer ties with BRICs because apparently the Md and Mosco relations have never been lower and you think number one can make these posts directed deals maybe with the Shanghai Cooperation Council that the whole bracket issue is never worked in question right now. I think a country like England however really needs to look at how it can and does strike deals not only with the u.s. And other u.s. And European but also with Russia and China you know we're going to this period where we've got something that's called the Silk Road that's connecting China through Cassatt South and many other countries with Russia that's why I was in St Petersburg I was also in constant and President Putin was there also as was his chief economic advisor and this whole Silk Road idea of uniting that whole area is certainly got to be something of great interest to Europe and to Europe and to the u.k. And just looking back on that seminal work of you as Confessions of a Economic Hitman I mean is it does it sound like from another era I mean Britain has failed to destroy say the Assad government NATO nations have to fail to destroy him a Doro in Venezuela England trying to destroy Putin that doesn't seem to be working and the days when they do nations get these stabilize countries. Over now because of the differences in this century I don't think it's over all I think it still has a kind of big scale. Difference then is that there's another factor that's come in and that's a very strong militarism so about the time I was an Economic Hit Man we were understanding that the war in Vietnam was a failure on the other hand the overthrow of most of deck in Iran by an Economic Hit Man was very successful so for many years the economic hitman system was set in place as a way to make their spec and the global empire that's really a corporate empire I think a big mistake was made in the round the year 2000 and later in the Bush administration in the Clinton administrations in the United States when the military industrial complex basically said hey you know. The world is being kind of taken over by corporations but we're not part of that we're going to get back into militarization and 91112 I don't think that's a good excuse for the Bush administration to get back into the military process we're in that again there's losers and it's not working on the other hand the Russians and the Chinese are playing the game that we used to play which is really the economic hit man. And that seems to be doing quite well that's one of the basics they didn't jump back in thank you that interview was by option routine and see how on Sputnik radio the current name for the Voice of Russia available online that r t dot com If you have questions or comments about the short wave report or could make a donation for production cost of this unfunded program I may be reaching the Web site and Pay Pal or by writing to Dan Roberts at p.o.
