Its not what you said you said but look people went out. They did what small quantity was not even a little small quantity but because the i never heard try to qualify if you tried to do it but lets still wrangling about it i think the reason why people took to the streets and why alex and of only called them to go out. Shes call for the boycott of those elections and boycott means not participating at all isnt he the real candidate the candidate who is really against old rather than lets say yes i think hes a real candidate and i think that he should be let to the elections unfortunately that was not made and here we share different ideas because i dont think the call out is the fact i think by caught will play only on putin not against putin because of the less number of people would come. And vote out of protest the more percentage of those who will be for protein this is obvious and i am against this idea thats why i decided to participate to unite those who go and vote on those elections to say how many people are against so that you personally would not get any vote a year earlier accuse the current authorities of trying to downplay the opposition support and russia. I know that i mean everybody Everybody Knows that there have has been a bit of a falling out between your campaign and the only complaint it has been a number of very public spats yesterday election of only published a calm and that was not very complimentary of the post of each you were attacked more than me well i think he accused there was a rumor that you visited him in the detention facility somebody wrote about you visiting human the detention facility to which you replied that it was a lie anyway it is really why what does it have to do with me i did my best i brought some food i spoke with policeman i never said i saw him first yemeni it shows that there is. Not the kind of agreement between various of position forces or you going to happen because this is what i share as democracy you shouldnt be all agreed like this like all the people who work there a lot lots of personal attacks if you guys are united by the common goal which is personal attack so this is not a question to me i think about it with. Cheese hes campaigned manager on camera but i never do personal attacks i just wanted him to a polish and i certainly wanted to show the opposition in the very. Little i can only answer for myself i can tell so for all the people yes i think some of the rules say the opposition leaders deeds were not really sensible as in this. Well in terms of uniting us all but i tried to do everything to. Complain manager quite deliberately chasing i just wanted his apologies i didnt get them and they said enjoins you think by doing that youre playing in the hands of those who are actually looking for any pretext to. College i was because you said lie i dont think it was ground thats up to you you said that your share a lot of common ideas and i think politically and vali stands on both leftist and nationalist positions he is on record saying that when he comes to power he is going to expropriate the properties of the current elite and i think in russia that is something that could be very appealing to the people especially the poor the young. Would you personally like to see another expropriation redistribution complain in this country well i think we should be very definite in our terms i dont think that he says about ticks procreation over the elite i think he in his program and if im not mistaken speaks about expropriation of the people connected with corruption with this i totally agree you know that hes not just a leftist i think he is a revolutionary leftist hes pretty much about. Blowing up the Current System and building something new in its place and that is a fundamental question for russia how do you change russia whether you change it from scratch starting to build from a clean slate or whether you work with the Current System its very important for me to get your position and i in favor of revolution or evolution our view or future russia is really different because i think that unfortunately the only good way for us is a long way i know that many people want to foster change but change only have as a revolution i am against to dilute on that you agree with birds and rather than only luke what do you mean i agree i dont agree with putin put in doesnt fade. The real things about these you know if a person says i am for everything good and against everything bad of course you will agree with. That he prefers an incremental change in russia which will then why he doesnt do it for you to yours he knows the troughton steals he knows that made the team. Is probably stealing he knows many many governmental people hostility from the state why he is not punishing them why he is only punishing. Who stole from satan and he spawn is not because he stole from state but because he stole something as you really believe that putin has the same kind of authority to deliberately target any give. No that putin has all the powers in russia and he has word is the last word here understand that in such a big country like russia knows every question could be addressed to a president for sure and thats the problem because all of the people around him sit and think ok what do we think about this or maybe we can treat the already set top as we can do this and then hundreds of intrigue has become the reality of our lives but the problem is that we dont have laws we have in truth what putin will think about this and this is i think a really bad situation because i want to leave in a country where everything is ruled by law not by president well i think many people over the agree with you on that but i think the problem in russia is not what but how and this is actually what. One of the architects of liberal reform in russia said recently of the gaidar forum but the problem is not we all agree that the russian future is doomed democratic but the question is how to change that then from his position its not just about political will its about the energized citizenry what have you done in your campaign to encourage the citizen muscle i have done a huge tour. Ive visited more than eighteen regions of russia already and in every cd i gather the halls where i speak with people i talk about the need for change i talk about the problems we face i educate all around russia and my main goal is education i want to educate people i want to bring them truth and i want together all their problems to make them federal so i go on all the regions of russia and they give those problems and they want to. Know what it is ive been following your campaign and sometimes it really looks like a more hip version of it which is annual call in show because you would go to some rundown hospital people will tell you how bad things are and they would be hoping that the publicity will make the local officials Pay Attention but its the same old russian paternalism waiting for the officials to fix the problem rather than being the change you want to see in the world dont you think that you are essentially playing the very same kremlin tactic no im not i am the change people want to see because with me comes the light to their problems when they come to those who are using cheese if you want to see in russia that you want to see in the world somebody who actually not only talks about the problems but who fixes them i think them by doing this this is my way of fixing you know you can see city two during the list of course because off to drive doesnt solve the problem in a why does it mean i can give you already some examples for example the hospital we matt already there. Pronouncing a program of. Building works because of my visit and this is the real doing thing because i can take the lose money out of my pocket and it is being spaced by the same prison system that you criticize so you drew the attention to their own i am saying look those guys got money for building a hospital. But they never build it they never rebuild it then i call with t. V. And everyone writes about this they know they stole those money and they have to do something because otherwise they will go to prison because the scandal around this becomes really huge so what theyre doing the compensated and starting building it this is how i think things this is my way of doing i go for example and speak about it but you do understand the reason president ial work is not drawing attention to some problem its actually of course but im doing now what i can do now i was talking loud that you did need to if im on with other very famous people who were also against these charges that it was really a gentle you read this or that he what he was released i take on all of us this credit on all the citizens who were involved in doing something for him to make this case public and when you say what do you do. If youre on all the talking you know talking as you remember in bible first was the word being is the most important thing when you stop talking about things that were allowed that all russians are exploiting these fish even much they like to talk but they dont like you know no one likes to talk no one on federal channels talks about the things i talk and people know this and thats why they go and want to support me now i want to two more questions if i may and we dont have that much time so i would appreciate a relatively short answer your i think one of the first prominent female candidates in the russian elections after that and a few. Interviews she encountered a lot of sexism and not just sexism she encountered a lot of open bigotry and her negatives were very high but not as high as yours i saw some polling agencies putting them down to eighty percent do you think thats just the typical prejudice of the russian a lecture the against women or do you put more to. Own personality well first of all i dont believe in those a kind of polls because of those polls done in the same ways of everything as they count votes its like the same kind of organizations and you do not think you have that i know i dont see it around me i see so much support especially when i go out of big cities i see so my support of people who come like this is an interesting time but i mean in many countries do you encounter more challenges to iran i formerly with i feel it too sometimes but i think we shouldnt Pay Attention to this we just should do what i think is right because while yes it exists many men dont think that its a right for women to rule of their lives they dont think that in poetry are you cold society thats a good thing to do but what we can do about this we can just prove that this is not try but i think far less agreeable then the most russian women certainly know how to get your way and i have one last question i dont want you to take it as a personal attack i think its an important one a few years ago you were taped having a conversation with your neighbors about the repair work on your part and i dont think its correct to discuss criminal cases because this was a private talk on telephone which was voice it wasnt it was yon by face so its a criminal case and it was criminal reported so i dont think its ethical to discuss my private telephone conversations and i will telephone conversation dont think its correct to discuss any private conversations all my private analyse you all my old i havent read it and i think it was a criminal case and you know this its unconstitutional to do this to discuss it and even to report it if you would show these on your t. V. I was knighted zoar and they will closely because its a lawful i wont do this but im just. Thank you we can discuss unlawful things uncles its easy you know it menial to really see how these movies are deemed unconstitutional and you know if you are no hughes movies i discussing corruption im going to share only palaces over the people who are you doing this that we discussed please dont kill the people please hold these on my money and when. We release was it my telephone private telephone in which you said that you wouldnt hire outgoing wouldnt care for legal to discuss my time voice calls listening working with phase b. I want to get this calls once again if youre if youre cooperating with them i know you can do it. As is certain oleson millions of people in russia listens you know i dont want to listen to any calls im not listening to an unsolved calls who was killed ok let me ask goals were also there so no i wont see us my private calls which were illegally taped by phase b. As i was not listening and never would listen to an insult calls that were also distributed through all the internet let me ask you if i think that people dont do it unless they call and my mother. Was ill you know it gives you a miser about the whole you have force and the son has to go because its my private i can say my home whatever i think is right and in my letters private letters i can write whatever i think is right and my mom i wonder if i would like that i would should never read someones samantha someones letters and. Then shipped moderate tell you had i was in our research if you talk on the phone i didnt she never doing this and to tomorrow why should i say to you my advice to you and be ethical enough not saying anything here i am having and i know you Say Something and its important question for me as and i as a first this is a legal question again its not business as will be and michael kay. Right because were running out of time and let me pose it in a way that would not impeach him on that call but i will still have the same message across you know im a somebody who has a very snobbish each other people and i think youve demonstrated that whole how can you explain apart from this call which was my private life and which will state and now they can give another example of this snobbish attitude i think i just want to give them and i want the journalistic example while i was a legal journalistic example well even now i think you are. As a journalist i think this is you dont want to discuss this problem i understand why so legal is because its illegal so now we know it all because i mean if we just sort of dont require specific degree all consideration for the people at janney an accommodation of their concerns do you think you have it in yourself to show that accommodation to people who live next door to you to people who live across the street or to people who live at the other end of the country of course this is what im doing now and this is actually what my complaint is about actually this campaign change will all too because when i go to people when they see how many problems they have and when they see that i cannot solve them all right now im trying hard im doing my best but i see that sometimes i can only hog them i can only cry with them and thats maximum that i can do of course it touched me very much and it touches manaul and i actually am not a person i used to be when i came to this campaign and now because i saw so many suffering already and i am now every day with it so of course it gives me a future how to say a huge burden when you can do only so Little Things now but you see how many people are really needing help and support and the fair state and they dont have it now since male radia grossly over time they will have to post a whole version online and make some changes that we will agree but youll for the error marriage and lets start with i make and it would be already over time but i was well lets finish it thank you so much i will really dont want you to cop the interview thank you was nice meeting if youre not going to accommodate my last question i just dont want you to cut anything think it thinks they. Are. Entire perfect currency market itself is still on track to eclipse the Global Banking oleg obviously which is what we need what we want and ive always said its a bank starkiller thats the primary is a big point of the person. Joining me every thursday on the alec simon show and ill be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business im show business ill see you then. Sports highest court lifetime olympic. Two dozen russian. Doping violations. The bipartisan the fine deepens in washington with the white house expected to release a classified congressional memo on friday the documents allegedly detail surveillance abuses by the f. B. I. Spy on trumped selection. Plus german intelligence warns that the children of fighters could be recruited. In the country describing them as living. Live from moscow to the world this is r. T. International my names you know neil welcome to the program our top story in the court of arbitration for sports has overturned a lifetime a limp big of twenty eight russian athletes accused of doping apel the results the sort she went to games back in twenty fourteen down off the story. This ruling has to be the olympic equivalent of having your execution cancelled at the last minute twenty eight previously banned for life from the games and are fully cleared of all doping allegations sanctions against them dropped nine a hard won medals in sochi are set to return to their rightful owners named and shamed they refused all along to accept the punishment for being guilty by association youre done with its such a relief for us because were really are innocent the public is now where of that many people believe that we dont but our close ones of course knew it wasnt true im really disappointed with the Olympic Movement its a complete mess. Theres a lot of uncertainty the bans were justified in some cases in others not im happy that the athletes in my sport. Have been partially acquitted and im sure well be promoting our movement further. With the legal mechanisms exist and we hope well still have the time to fight for our rights if not at cas then in a civil court switzerland has a long history of considering cases if there are agents have always sat the truth and justice always prevail in the end yet the verdict came with a catch. This does not mean that these twenty declared innocent but. Due to insufficient evidence held the sanctions and old individual results achieved in such reinstituted so hold on a second you yourself proclaimed theres no proof to convict these athletes what part of innocent until Proven Guilty in my not getting here this short remark is the latest twist in whats been a nerve racking roller coaster of a doping scandal for russias athletes the International Olympic committee initially slapped the russian team with a blanket Ban Following a report accusing the country of a state sponsored doping program the court of appeals heard both from the author of the report and its key witness though and didnt find their testimony convincing enough these two men who were involved in exposing all of this mess basically gave us enough evidence to say listen mcclaren water you see we dont believe you guys the tribunals conclusion has poked a sizable hole in the reasoning behind the i. O. C. His decision to bar russia from the olympics but the not guilty verdict does not guarantee a ticket to south korea later this month its still the i. O. C. That get
