Dialogue: 0,0:01:13.05,0:01:20.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Andy: Thank you. OK. Good evening. So, I\Nnamed this talk "When WikiLeaks bumped
Dialogue: 0,0:01:20.48,0:01:27.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,into the CIA operation Kudo exposed". So,\Nexplain a bit later what that is. Just as

Dialogue: 0,0:01:55.44,0:02:03.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,society through Freedom of Information. My\Ntalk will have two parts, what happened so
Dialogue: 0,0:02:03.52,0:02:11.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,far and what should be done now. In the\Nfirst part. I just want to refer a little
Dialogue: 0,0:02:11.12,0:02:16.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,bit on the context of what I'm talking\Nabout. So, this is about what happened
Dialogue: 0,0:02:16.56,0:02:23.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,surrounding WikiLeaks in the context of\Nthe CIA and the United States government.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:24.48,0:02:31.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Yeah, getting on them. I had two talks\Nabout similar topics already in 2018 and
Dialogue: 0,0:02:31.60,0:02:36.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,2019 at the ..., you know, unfortunately\Nalso. No, that was still the last real
Dialogue: 0,0:02:36.72,0:02:42.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Congress. I talked about the technical\Naspects of the surveillance. And you will
Dialogue: 0,0:02:42.16,0:02:48.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,see one image that I needed to copy from\Nthat again. Then last year, I talked a
Dialogue: 0,0:02:48.08,0:02:52.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,little bit about the CIA versus WikiLeaks\Nto intimidation tactics. That was more
Dialogue: 0,0:02:52.88,0:02:58.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,what happened to me and other surrounding\NWikiLeaks. Now, in the meantime, this
Dialogue: 0,0:02:58.80,0:03:03.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,year, end of September, came a very\Nimportant article in this context on Yahoo
Dialogue: 0,0:03:03.52,0:03:10.40,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,News, that seems to have been doing that.\NSome guys have been hired there, who
Dialogue: 0,0:03:10.40,0:03:17.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,previously worked for Newsweek and others.\NThe article, from 26 of September, is
Dialogue: 0,0:03:17.36,0:03:23.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,called Kidnapping, Assassination at the\NLondon Shootout, inside the Secret CIA
Dialogue: 0,0:03:23.04,0:03:29.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Secret War Plans against WikiLeaks, and it\Ndid reveal quite some things. It finally
Dialogue: 0,0:03:29.76,0:03:35.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,referred to my talk. It links even to the\Nvideo of my talk. It takes some quotes
Dialogue: 0,0:03:35.76,0:03:42.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,from it. It confirms a lot of it and adds\Na lot. But it also frames and was framing.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:42.96,0:03:51.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I mean, there is some disinformation\Nthat's poisoning that otherwise very
Dialogue: 0,0:03:51.20,0:03:56.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,helpful article to understand what the\Nfuck was going on. So, what I'm trying to
Dialogue: 0,0:03:56.32,0:04:02.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,do today is to reconstruct the whole thing\Na little bit to reframe it and help
Dialogue: 0,0:04:02.56,0:04:07.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,everybody to understand a little bit what\Nhappened here. The Yahoo article
Dialogue: 0,0:04:08.48,0:04:15.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,rightfully distinguishes the timeframe of\Nthe interaction, so to say, between the
Dialogue: 0,0:04:15.04,0:04:21.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,United States government and WikiLeaks\Ninto four to five timeframes. One of them
Dialogue: 0,0:04:21.92,0:04:27.68,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,at the beginning of the WikiLeaks project.\NOr, let's say, before Snowden, so before
Dialogue: 0,0:04:27.68,0:04:36.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,mid-2013, the Obama administration\Nauthored the diplomatic cables had been
Dialogue: 0,0:04:36.32,0:04:42.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,published by WikiLeaks, Afghan / Iraq War\NLogs and so on were out. They had the view
Dialogue: 0,0:04:42.80,0:04:48.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that as long as some entity or some people\Nare publishing, are engaging and
Dialogue: 0,0:04:48.24,0:04:53.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,publishing it in journalistic activity,\Nthere's nothing they can do because First
Dialogue: 0,0:04:53.60,0:04:57.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Amendment of the United States\NConstitution talks about the freedom of
Dialogue: 0,0:04:58.96,0:05:06.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,publishing the freedom of speech, and a\Nfreedom that does include journalistic
Dialogue: 0,0:05:06.48,0:05:17.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,activity of all kinds. After the Snowden,\Nnot revelations, but the fact that Edward
Dialogue: 0,0:05:18.64,0:05:26.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Snowden was getting from Hong Kong on the\Nway to somewhere else, but he got to
Dialogue: 0,0:05:26.08,0:05:34.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Moscow with the help of a WikiLeaks\Neditorial member, therefore in acting in
Dialogue: 0,0:05:34.24,0:05:40.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,what you could call journalistic source\Nprotection. However, that brought the U.S.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:40.32,0:05:44.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,government to a slightly different view of\NWikiLeaks. It didn't really like it, so
Dialogue: 0,0:05:45.44,0:05:50.40,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Obama allowed the intelligence community\Nto prioritize collection WikiLeaks, search
Dialogue: 0,0:05:50.40,0:05:55.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,warrants, subpeonas, US National Security\NLetters. So here we're not talking about,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:55.92,0:06:00.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,as far as the article mentions, about the\Nlegal investigation yet. This intelligence
Dialogue: 0,0:06:00.72,0:06:06.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,work to, like they allowed them to get on\Nthem? They also, in the context of the
Dialogue: 0,0:06:06.88,0:06:11.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Snowden revelations, now, where it wasn't\NWikiLeaks, it was Glenn Greenwald and
Dialogue: 0,0:06:11.60,0:06:18.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Laura Poitras who had been given by Edward\NSnowden the material, and they published
Dialogue: 0,0:06:18.16,0:06:24.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the material together with Guardian, Der\NSpiegel, the others. I was also involved
Dialogue: 0,0:06:24.16,0:06:30.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,with the Spiegel I should disclose.\NHowever, they tried to relabel, not only
Dialogue: 0,0:06:30.64,0:06:37.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,WikiLeaks, but also Glenn, Laura and\Nothers from journalists away to like
Dialogue: 0,0:06:37.44,0:06:43.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,information brokers. They tried all kinds\Nof definitions to circumvent the
Dialogue: 0,0:06:43.92,0:06:51.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,protection of the United States\NConstitution, you could say. That went not
Dialogue: 0,0:06:51.20,0:06:56.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that far. At least I have no actively\Nknowledge of a criminal prosecution
Dialogue: 0,0:06:57.84,0:07:02.40,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,running against Laura and Glenn. However,\Nthere were for sure intelligence
Dialogue: 0,0:07:02.40,0:07:07.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,activities that they also reported on that\Neverybody who was involved in the
Dialogue: 0,0:07:07.28,0:07:13.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,publications, as you might know from\Nhistory, the Guardian was later forced to
Dialogue: 0,0:07:13.04,0:07:17.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,even destroy the computers where they had\Nput this Snowden material and so on. So,
Dialogue: 0,0:07:17.52,0:07:27.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that was quite some things going on. In\N2016, the next, yeah, like milestone in
Dialogue: 0,0:07:27.28,0:07:31.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the change of the relations between the\NUnited States government, WikiLeaks, to
Dialogue: 0,0:07:31.44,0:07:39.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,say it nicely, was the publication of the\NDNC emails that by the definition of the
Dialogue: 0,0:07:39.44,0:07:48.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,National Security Agency, like they said,\Nthis was Guccifer 2.0 was the Russian
Dialogue: 0,0:07:48.56,0:07:55.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,military intelligence at GRU and that the\Nwhole publication was with the intention
Dialogue: 0,0:07:55.76,0:08:03.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to hurt the interests of the United\NStates. This now is a first point where we
Dialogue: 0,0:08:03.20,0:08:07.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,could sit back from our European\Nperspective for a little bit and say, wait
Dialogue: 0,0:08:07.04,0:08:13.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a moment. This was about leaking. I mean,\Nthis was leaked emails. Or, however, let's
Dialogue: 0,0:08:13.12,0:08:19.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,say it was emails that somehow got leaked,\Nobtained or otherwise, but in any way,
Dialogue: 0,0:08:19.36,0:08:25.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,WikiLeaks published them. What the\Ndiscussion was about was how Hillary
Dialogue: 0,0:08:25.92,0:08:32.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Clinton had treated Bernie Sanders as the\Nother candidate of the Democratic Party,
Dialogue: 0,0:08:33.36,0:08:40.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and here obviously did not make it. She\Nmade it. So, this we could call this
Dialogue: 0,0:08:40.48,0:08:46.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,exposing the facts in the public interest.\NBut as I said, the United States, at least
Dialogue: 0,0:08:46.08,0:08:51.68,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,National Security Agency and others seem\Nto have agreed that this was not intended
Dialogue: 0,0:08:51.68,0:08:55.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to harm the United States, not what\NHillary Clinton did, but what WikiLeaks
Dialogue: 0,0:08:55.60,0:09:03.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,did in this publication. I think it's\Nimportant that we distinguish between how
Dialogue: 0,0:09:03.04,0:09:08.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,we evaluate these things and how the US\Ngovernment puts this into different
Dialogue: 0,0:09:08.80,0:09:16.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,baskets or categories. However, then it\Ngot much more wild, when WikiLeaks started
Dialogue: 0,0:09:16.88,0:09:23.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,at the beginning of 2017 to publish, with\Nthe so-called full seven series, documents
Dialogue: 0,0:09:23.52,0:09:29.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,from the Central Intelligence Agency from\Nthe CIA. Mike Pompeo was in charge of it.
Dialogue: 0,0:09:29.52,0:09:34.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I did talk about this at length, and I\Nwant to repeat this last year, so he got
Dialogue: 0,0:09:34.08,0:09:40.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,very upset personally because he was also\Npotentially personal responsible for it.
Dialogue: 0,0:09:40.64,0:09:48.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, It was under his watch, so to say.\NHowever, the framing aspect of the article
Dialogue: 0,0:09:49.28,0:09:56.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,are worth having a brief look. The what\Nhappened this year was so sad that the key
Dialogue: 0,0:09:56.96,0:10:04.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,witness of the prosecution Icelandic guy\Ncalled Sigurdor Thordarson made it public
Dialogue: 0,0:10:04.24,0:10:09.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that actually he lied to the FBI and that\Nthey fabricated part of the evidence based
Dialogue: 0,0:10:09.60,0:10:15.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,on his lies. Also, they could have\Nverified things. He later even was
Dialogue: 0,0:10:15.20,0:10:22.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,imprisoned for his multiple illegal acts,\Nand the Icelandic government saw it as
Dialogue: 0,0:10:22.32,0:10:27.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,reason enough to declare him a danger to\Nsociety and therefore lock him up. And
Dialogue: 0,0:10:27.52,0:10:32.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that's not happening that easily in a\Ncountry like Iceland who normally people
Dialogue: 0,0:10:32.96,0:10:39.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,are very calm and down to earth. However,\Nthe article came just after, a few weeks
Dialogue: 0,0:10:39.76,0:10:47.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,after, the publications on this fabricated\Nevidence. And it's fair to say that the
Dialogue: 0,0:10:47.76,0:10:55.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,gravity of the Yahoo article was a lot\Nhigher and a lot more was discussed than
Dialogue: 0,0:10:55.04,0:11:02.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,about the fake evidence of the key witness\Nand so on. However, one other aspect that
Dialogue: 0,0:11:02.64,0:11:11.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,was in the Yahoo article was a thing that\Nis, from my reading, and I've talked to
Dialogue: 0,0:11:11.04,0:11:16.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,many people, there was no evidence for\Nthis whatsoever. The Yahoo article claimed
Dialogue: 0,0:11:16.56,0:11:22.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that there was the Russian government also\Nhaving like kind of officers in front of
Dialogue: 0,0:11:22.24,0:11:29.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the Ecuadorian embassy or in the immediate\Nsurrounding, preparing to help Julian to
Dialogue: 0,0:11:29.52,0:11:33.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,evacuate him, so to say, from England to\Nsneak him out, as the article says.,
Dialogue: 0,0:11:34.40,0:11:39.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Russian intel preparing to sneak Assange\Nout of the UK. And this is a little bit
Dialogue: 0,0:11:39.92,0:11:47.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,wild and it's double wild when you or when\None looks at how the involvement of the
Dialogue: 0,0:11:47.60,0:11:52.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Russian government, how that upsets\NAmerican people, the American media and so
Dialogue: 0,0:11:52.24,0:11:58.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,on. This is such a polarized environment\Nwhere the moment the Russian government is
Dialogue: 0,0:11:58.08,0:12:02.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,declared to be involved, it changes\Neverything. What's happened really here
Dialogue: 0,0:12:02.72,0:12:09.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,with something different and that is that\NJulian had, in cooperation and in
Dialogue: 0,0:12:09.04,0:12:14.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,coordination with the Ecuadorian\Ngovernment, found a way to legally leave

Dialogue: 0,0:12:20.96,0:12:27.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,an Ecuadorian diplomat, and then in theory\Nhe would have been able to leave the UK
Dialogue: 0,0:12:27.04,0:12:32.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because a diplomat on the way to a\Ndifferent working place has, under Vienna,

Dialogue: 0,0:12:40.96,0:12:47.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,does reveal some aspects of what happened.\NFor example, the kidnapping plans, the

Dialogue: 0,0:13:00.24,0:13:05.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,extreme acts did not happen, and the\Narticle claims that, you know, justice
Dialogue: 0,0:13:05.44,0:13:11.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,prevailed. White House lawyers had doubts.\NThe National Security Council and the

Dialogue: 0,0:15:57.80,0:16:03.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,26th. This is the most critical timeframe,\Nbecause, around the 16th, he was

Dialogue: 0,0:16:57.44,0:17:02.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the embassy, but to spy on Julian. So this\Nmeeting on the 21st was extremely
Dialogue: 0,0:17:02.22,0:17:09.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,important to the Americans, and we do know\Nroughly that the whole story ended through
Dialogue: 0,0:17:09.44,0:17:16.93,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,various means, but mainly to pressure on\Nthe on the Ecuadorian government in Quito,

Dialogue: 0,0:17:43.43,0:17:50.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,time frame, I make here a little bit of an\Nevent matrix, which is completely
Dialogue: 0,0:17:50.95,0:17:56.83,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,incomplete. I have to say this many things\Nmissing for legal, for other reasons. You
Dialogue: 0,0:17:56.83,0:18:01.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,know, some things are just too wild. The\NU.S. government, for example, would never

Dialogue: 0,0:18:11.59,0:18:18.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,we have some events that are funny and fit\Nwell into our picture, for example, that

Dialogue: 0,0:18:29.74,0:18:35.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,came the fire protection service into the\Nembassy. And those who seen my talk last
Dialogue: 0,0:18:35.29,0:18:40.47,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,year know that one of the fire\Nextinguishers placed in the meeting room
Dialogue: 0,0:18:40.47,0:18:47.21,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,had the main role for holding a bug.\NHowever, I'm coming to that than we have

Dialogue: 0,0:19:09.40,0:19:16.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,coming to that and we have other things\Ngoing on at that timeframe, that kind of
Dialogue: 0,0:19:16.39,0:19:23.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,fit into the frame. So on the, ... I\Nselected three events to talk about them a

Dialogue: 0,0:20:49.28,0:20:55.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,bit crass, and I think there will be many\Nother embassies of other countries who

Dialogue: 0,0:22:04.64,0:22:10.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of loss of camera coverage. So, there was\Na process to be established when the
Dialogue: 0,0:22:10.24,0:22:14.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,surveillance cameras in the embassy\Nwouldn't deliver pictures anymore and the

Dialogue: 0,0:22:40.00,0:22:45.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,few key words here that I just want to\Nemphasize in the event of lots of camera
Dialogue: 0,0:22:45.52,0:22:50.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,coverage standards, then there is talking\Nabout something called GS7 that might be
Dialogue: 0,0:22:50.56,0:22:56.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,code-word for CIA or something different.\NMET is clearly the Metropolitan Police.
Dialogue: 0,0:22:57.12,0:23:02.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,That's a normal acronym in England, and\Nthey talk about the context of the
Dialogue: 0,0:23:02.72,0:23:09.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,operation Kudo. So we looked up the word\NKudo. Kudo is something saying roughly
Dialogue: 0,0:23:09.84,0:23:18.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,like friendship. So, we have to assume\Nthis was a joint British American
Dialogue: 0,0:23:18.08,0:23:23.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,operation, and that's exactly what the\NYahoo article describes. However, what it
Dialogue: 0,0:23:23.28,0:23:29.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,does not describe is the legal\Nimplication, because this could well be
Dialogue: 0,0:23:30.56,0:23:35.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,one of the most or best well documented\Nbreaches of the Vienna Convention,
Dialogue: 0,0:23:36.56,0:23:43.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,basically saying that the premises of the\Nmission shall be inviolable, which is,
Dialogue: 0,0:23:44.72,0:23:48.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,normally means that you shall not bug, you\Nshall not, you know, put surveillance

Dialogue: 0,0:23:53.28,0:24:00.40,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,camera surveillance system, of an embassy,\Nasked to host state and so on and so that
Dialogue: 0,0:24:00.40,0:24:04.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,intelligence do it and that the CIA was\Ndoing it. In the case of the Ecuadorian
Dialogue: 0,0:24:04.80,0:24:10.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,embassy, it's already part of a Spanish\Nlawsuit. However, the dimension is a
Dialogue: 0,0:24:10.24,0:24:14.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,little bit different, as the British\Npolice seems to have access have had
Dialogue: 0,0:24:14.72,0:24:20.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,access to that video surveillance, and\Nthat is potentially legally different
Dialogue: 0,0:24:20.32,0:24:26.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,thing. That will be subject to some legal\Nsteps going on in the next weeks and
Dialogue: 0,0:24:26.64,0:24:37.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,months. The third event I selected for\Nrelaxation issues is on the last day. You
Dialogue: 0,0:24:37.04,0:24:42.40,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,see here two police officers carrying an\Nastonishing amount of eight cups of coffee
Dialogue: 0,0:24:43.52,0:24:51.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,for a relatively small police car. That\Ngives you an idea what was going on there.

Dialogue: 0,0:25:06.96,0:25:13.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,intense the British police was also on the\Nscene outside. So, what is currently
Dialogue: 0,0:25:13.76,0:25:19.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,happening with this and a lot of other\Nmaterial? Is, well, checking the violation
Dialogue: 0,0:25:19.60,0:25:28.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of the Vienna Convention then parsing\Ntogether many of the events and observing

Dialogue: 0,0:25:43.36,0:25:50.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,happened in London, but also to see where\Nother journalists were other citizens,

Dialogue: 0,0:27:54.13,0:28:01.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,thought brings us to. So, here's my little\Nideas, and then I will just come with some
Dialogue: 0,0:28:01.77,0:28:09.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,questions to the audience. So, yeah, what\Ncan we do and what maybe should we do?

Dialogue: 0,0:29:30.55,0:29:37.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,actually "wag the dog" is just a tiny\Nlittle aspect of it. Because the question

Dialogue: 0,0:30:00.09,0:30:05.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,here in Europe, is of course, the question\Nof how can we immunize those people,

Dialogue: 0,0:35:06.34,0:35:17.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,maybe Andy, if you have the capacity for a\Nquestion from the interwebs. Then the

Dialogue: 0,0:35:40.07,0:35:46.81,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you wanted. Well, I am myself accusing the\NSpanish company to have spied on me and

Dialogue: 0,0:41:51.12,0:41:57.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,England, but England seems to be a very\Ntough under two aspects. The one is that

Dialogue: 0,0:42:12.72,0:42:21.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,similar statements, but they are not as\Nclearly defined and as a value system of a
Dialogue: 0,0:42:21.36,0:42:27.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,democratic society. So, most British\Npeople, if you ask them to do something
Dialogue: 0,0:42:27.44,0:42:31.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,for freedom of press like the press, these\Nassholes, what should I do something for

Dialogue: 0,0:42:35.68,0:42:43.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,other aspect is that the UK government, to\Nsay it bluntly, there's quite some people
Dialogue: 0,0:42:43.44,0:42:48.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,who say that the UK government does what\Nthe US government says. And in this case,

Dialogue: 0,0:43:01.76,0:43:08.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,addressed in the US. And Germany and other\NEuropean countries have a different
Dialogue: 0,0:43:08.72,0:43:14.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,history, obviously, and I'm at least sure\Nthat if Julian would be in Germany, I'm
Dialogue: 0,0:43:14.64,0:43:19.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,not sure he would be not having any\Nissues, but there would be a different
Dialogue: 0,0:43:19.04,0:43:27.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,discussion. However, the question how the\Nso-called old Europe or the continental

Dialogue: 0,0:43:33.20,0:43:37.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,have any influence here in England, I\Nwould say forget it on the US. It's more
Dialogue: 0,0:43:37.60,0:43:44.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,complicated. But for the moment, it seems\Nthat similar to what happened to Julian
