and this was clearly the case for jason. he was held for nine months without access to a lawyer, and ten months before the trial started. these are the things that we'll look at. iran's national obligations and human rights codes and they give the iranians an opportunity to spond. we know for a fact that the iranians have received that packet already and the u.n. has been working quickly on this, and we hope that they treat it as urgent and make the iranians respond as to why they have been holding jason for the past year. >> ali rezaian the brother of jason rezaian. >> to representatives from a dozen countries are meeting in hawaii for the biggest trade deal in history. the nations make up the global economy, and what exactly does this deal mean for the u.s.? >> well, erica, this is a huge trade deal. but as the name suks, suggests, it goes up from new zealand to asia and australia as well. so it already has comprehensive trade deals with, mexico and japan, and the trade deals that exist are not very comprehensive, and the

parse this quote for me, jason. should we take it at face value, he just means streaming and original content or is there something deeper? pixar actually used technology to produce different kinds of content than we had seen before. you think reed hastings wants to do that, too? >> he may want to. and i don't know what their plans might be but certainly on the face of it it's a bit of a stretch to look at pixar and the platform, the true technology platform advantage they had, and equate it to what netflix is doing. certainly netflix is at an advantage right now and ahead of the pack in terms of streaming at scale, and that has certainly we've seen some other services suffer with their early attempts at scale but i don't think that's a long-term technological advantage, so i think that that element of his comment is a bit stretched and really we're focused on we're left with this bit on content and as you mentioned, a lot new content coming out from netflix today and very soon. >> jason, you were founder of a compa

>> we were hopeful at many stages that jason would be released. from the outset we hoped it would be resolved quickly. there was some hope that as part of these talks the iranians might demonstrate good will and release jason but we never expected that the two issues would be link the in the negotiations. u.s. government made clear that that was not its approach and we understood that throughout. >> we heard that the foreign minister of iran did acknowledge that there were some sideline discussions about jason's condition and he even described it as a humanitarian issue. here's the question. is there a risk that with the post moves to the u.n., raising it to a higher profile that it might cause iran to harden its potential will to release him? >> it shouldn't do so. we are saying nothing more than we said publicly for a year that this humanitarian concerns are real, that jason is suffering that his detention has been arbitrary and that he ought to the freed at once. by reaches out to the u.n., a body iran respects, we are bringing this to a higher

for ten months, they did not allow jason to have a lawyer. it was nearly 11 months before his trial started. at least the fact there is a little bit of movement there. it is hopeful. we know that he has a strong case. we know that the evidence against him is naung exist ten. and that any fair reading, any fairview of the case would result in his acquittal. and letting him come home. and i think with the additional focus on iran and our relations there, i hope they take this seriously and they let jason come home soon. >> i appreciate you talking to us and i wish you and your family the best. thank you. >> thank you. >> before we go to break, one quick note for anyone who would like to show his support for jason orange go to www.freejason.net or tweet free jason. >>> in the mexican prison break, el chapo's escape through tunnel where he popped up before vanishing. also, the brother of kate steinle who was killed in san francisco. donald trump has been talking about her killing an awful lot. what her brother only the has to say about donald tru
