The problem could be that you're specifying the http_proxy argument, but passing in an https proxy, if instead specify it as a https proxy like

https_proxy=https://xxx:xxx

Then you should be able to retrieve it. There also could be problems with the configuration of the proxy you're using, but that's out of your control.
