causing the biggest down in springfield pubs and restaurants will take the names and details of customers to track people down if there are further virus outbreaks . very good afternoon thanks so much for joining us here on r.t. into the. after a delay caused by the global pandemic moscow has finally held its huge military

parade marking the 75th anniversary of the soviet victory over nazi germany red square code to the sound of thousands of marching feet from those tasked with protecting the motherland and hot on the heels quite literally came a procession of military vehicles and equipment before the whole thing was topped off with a spectacular fly past. to

dish like the event is seldom a nice but the coronavirus prevented that from happening this year and so today was chosen for the jubilee instead and it was not just any old day $945.00 the 1st ever victory parade was actually held on june 24th with many save it so just that made it back from the front lines and could share the celebrations with the whole country. in commemoration of victory over germany and the great patrick wall the june 24th 945 i'm scheduling a parade of the active army the navy and moscow garrison the victory parade in moscow's red square.

it was a long anticipated and unforgettable day some people strongly believed it would come.

we were looking at the pile of wet cloths and thinking that the long expected victory had come and we the war is that how people to free the mother bring back peace is my contribution. to your rounds in raising the troops we could see rain trickling from their camps but they spirits were too high to even notice it was a gloomy sunday red squares cobblestones were wet the bunches of flowers that we got after the parade were away but years on my heart doesn't believe in those memories the 24th of june 1945 has become a part of my life it was a most cheerful and sunny day.

well before the official part of the parade for him at pigeon address the nation reminding people it was the soviet union it was the main power that conquered nazi forces. we've said that would you permit we will never forget that it was the soviet people who defeated naziism judy is to remember that remember that the soviet people carried the main burden of the fight with nazi germany in 1941 more than 80 percent of nazi forces and their satellites were fighting against the soviet union but this merciless army turned out to be powerless before the unity of the soviet people particularly our people who could conquer this dire total evil defeat more than $600.00 of the enemies divisions and destroy 75 percent of all of its planes tanks and artillery it was our heroic truthful and sacrificial path that

brought the victory and this is the main and honest truth about the war. was the was the was. the main part of the parade began with regiments marching through red square thousands of soldiers from different divisions taking part our correspondents taylor shared with us why the perception and did the whole parade whole particular meaning for her. there is so much positive energy on this day and this joyous ness is seen in even the smallest of gestures so you're walking around the city and often you'll actually see on your screens that the camera will panic to images of the veterans and very often in the hands i think the red carnations that is a tradition people young and old go up to the factories and give them this flower and it's to commemorate the innocent blood that was spilt but they also say that

the brightness of that bread symbolizes the ferocity with which people fought today it's a day that we get to relive the the emotions and the town where that people must have felt in 1945 when almost with disbelief they realized that the war. it was only to me actually the most moving part of the day it's up to the present spoken and they say in unison brouwer our rock and that's because i hear history in that sound there are echoes of these people 75 years ago on red square i think she was celebrated but more importantly so with the people who had fought tooth and nail to bring about my grandmother for she actually fought in the a 1000000 brought it into canted women and it was an all female unit that was part of the 1st polish army and that was part of the soviet full set and actually they fought a battle in london which is in russia and they actually managed to break through to german to france's take back and hold part the strategic area of the bridge that

proved to be crucial in the not the battle later on i could go up to any single person on the street ask them what did you write to do during the war each would keep me 80 tell family story someone who fought and died at starting price someone who survived the blockade of leningrad so many fought with the partisans and someone who on the 24th of june 1945 walked on to that very square right behind me . well there is largely about the world war 2 veterans and the survivors who are given thanks for achieving that victory over nazi germany now this year we launched the victory mail project you guys the chance to deliver messages of thanks and share your stories and feelings or simply to say hello from a different part of the world and i've got a small selection here of some of the letters that we have received so let's take a very quick look ok so 1st of all we have a lot here this is from ukraine that was sent to a veteran here in russia sent in may just in time for the originally shuttle

victory day parade coming up here we've got this was some from russia to a french resistance veteran and of course that sent to war address and we pass that on. now let's take a little bit of a closer look at this one this is from russia and this was sent to a. so this was actually sent from germany this one this was sent by as you can safely just a close look my german classes have betrayed me that look person by mail all the way from germany and finally we got this which is rather beautiful shows a creative children not this was 100 painted car that was some from a young girl here in russia she says on it her grandfather fought on the front line as well with the veterans unfortunately she died before she was even born and she just wants to wish all of the veterans very good health from her family and all of her friends so very sweet sentiments. are of course

letters from all across the world devoted to world war 2 veterans who contributed to the victory over naziism once they arrived at our offices we sat in the mall as a mention to the war heroes to remind them of their acts of bravery on never forgotten under something more touching to say some of those letters being opened. yet we go left. or i think they're all there clean may. be put in. place. right.

in there. yes. but the area. where. the war put you. there's been a long tradition of the victory day parade in the russian capital you know it's

latest from around the world despite all the troubles caused by coronavirus the moldovan president has made it to moscow celebrating a very special day for his country. when you go to do we were ready to come on may the 9th the fact that it takes place on june the 24th a historic day i think it's right side believe people were waiting for it we were also hold the parade at home but on august the 24th it's moldova's dave liberation from fascism when the invitation to the parade on june the 24th arrived we agreed immediately moreover i decided the presidential guard of honor would come to it's a very important year 75 years since the victory in the great patriotic war it's a great date for us for most of the republic of moldova it is a day to victory in the past present and future we always celebrated on a high level and i couldn't not except fleda may have putin's invitation to the parade. just gonna get

you those countries and politicians that don't honor and respect the past risk being left without a future the red army freed europe with the help of allies all of us so when it is i don't think it's right to divide this victory parents did everything they could to pass their ideals to us our goal is to make sure our children and grandchildren receive these ideals to save them and live with the if there was more than just one period that. it must look at all of us coronavirus change the loss not only in the life of every citizen but also in the work specifics of some geo political players we saw who lent a helping hand and how many countries helped us during that period 3 months but the 1st ones to come were russia china some european countries but those who gave us the most promise is unfortunately once among the 1st responders this is why i think

the world has changed we got to see who are real friends are we still have a lot to go through it's clear to everyone that not all has passed we in the 2nd wave now in moldova but i'm sure we'll get through and become stronger with real friends. today's price so hundreds of military hardware units riding right through red square correspondence it is done often today but trying to weather. this is where it all begins this is where all the military hardware well all military machines park station before they roll towards the very heart of moscow and this beast is the one that we actually going to be riding in. this tank support unit actually has a catchy name and that's terminator 3 and these machines including this one where tested the hard way in 27 thing that was sent to syria to take part in the war and

that was how they earned their permanent place in the russian armed forces. well when it comes to weaponry this machine is very versatile for instance it carries guided antitank myself. you can see them over there for instance painted red apart from that it has 33 millimeter machine guns and you can see them from over them and over here and over their heads to which a massacre in a village is one of the snakes the terminates it will live up to its name and its reputation because you can hit the sorts of things from infancy to tanks on the big coast and even helicopters and other low flying talking it's.

people lining up and sternly as the 6 the pope in the morning people were lining up along the problems along the route took the skolem 2 way to goodness was sending kisses to the proof of the feet and so i could see i could see people i could see saajan and offices kind of enjoying that oppose they couldn't be overly hopefully obvious in showing the affection back but they still please enjoy those waves they enjoyed people waving the russian flag waving the flags of the military units where those bystanders when they where they used to sit on this rolling just passed us is exactly the terminator that that brought me here this was my who

behave. if you would let me say so igor called it and over while my over with a lot of time. and. date this is it a tank like i said so and it doesn't have a full payload of weapons but they are very useful in battle because they can carry more than a dozen soldiers in there and they can stay safe which is very important on some of these machines on tanks as wall of course and on a.p. . you see you will see men standing through the hatch with their facts straight i was talking to some of the guys asking them how they managed to do what they exercise a lot in the gym because again because of the problems on the ranch where it sometimes can get a bit shaky i don't these drivers are professionals so i mean. they keep the speed the same and that's important for the call to be event but really it is tough

sometimes for the gas to stand there and also some of them are carrying guns around the walls. so now the team for take have gone past me i can tell you about some of the stuff that will fall eventually. where the dust and the smoke get it does much. i guess that it should put some say on the war machine what you can see. that draw cost me. i could notice them by the special angles on the tour where the t. pointing are mounted tanks there was a different but if a patient. but what makes them special is the sag goals as far as i know. it makes them almost impossible to detect by circling the detection systems. that

were used by the older generation you see some of the bigger vehicles passing by right now and you know once i was able to be in the actual cow with the driver drawing there were hurtful and i can tell you about my feelings because at some point you're there near the ceiling well it just feels like you're riding a regular truck but then you take a glance out the side there and you realize what's behind you and you realize how powerful these war machines are mostly the. color of all these be called the dark green which is clearly a sign. of what the environment in russia is like but we know that we have harsh winters. perhaps a bit earlier or we could see them coming we had. machines that could be deployed in the arctic and. clearly there colors both the white. what i

like is that in the front you can actually see something like going to through a polar bear the machine that you're watching right now and they're passing by it's really the most modern the most up to date to call g. that the russian or army can offer. a correspondent. position to and so hope rights including the grand finale which unfolded in the skies of moscow. these parades in 1945 it represented the end of the great patriotic war represented that life would return to normal as normal as it could be off to such a devastating such a terrified war as these parade today tilts people you know life will go back to move this is the 1st major event in russia since the beginning of the pandemic you know i've written

a very interesting statistic just sad but the interesting statistic the squirrels behind you the formations into trees that say about 200 people each other the number of civilians that's 27000000 people killed during the great patriotic war it would take them 2 months to march to the red square looms huge blocks of 27000000 people is the number of individuals with their roots with their own dreams who died in that school. what is about to happen is the best part of the break that you know i've always found it to be the best part of the brain had a soul spalled flow for profit any hope doesn't play games for my entire life and a right now out of anybody here i am the clue that i've once had a ride with 70 other people in the in the me 26. an incredible

cycle through out the off the roof bear in mind one of these a across the flying completely different speeds at different heights to go from 8 different fields to didn't pull it to precisely the right smooth or right moment to give us this spectacular views. it's always the russian flag that ends the parade. needed here. i think the biggest danger that has come out educationally to destroy us is it's us highlighted the shoot-in equality that exists and i think one of the things that

educationally. changes access to the internet for educational purposes needs to be i think 2 lists that essentially our children writes. seems wrong why don't we all just all. get to shape out of this thing become educated and in gains from an equal betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart when she says to look for common ground.

welcome but let's talk about the coronavirus pandemic now and the way that it's been handled in the u.k. has doctors fearing they simply won't be able to cope if there's a 2nd wave that's according to a new survey of health care workers. obviously as we come out of lockdown and now that the numbers are manageable the question is what do we do in terms of protecting the health workforce because i think a lot of people realize that doctors and nurses and clinicians are burnt out they're anxious that depressed the latest figures from the b.m.a. survey which is just being carried out show 44 percent are suffering from some sort of mental health problem and nearly half of all clinicians are worried about a 2nd peak so of course there may be a concern over a 2nd bartz at that point we can look at that and we may then have to implement sort of regional lockdowns rather than

a national lockdown for people's mental house for the economy for the united kingdom generally we need to unlock and we need to let people get on with their lives well the survey conducted by the british medical association also shows nearly a 5th of those polled are not to tall confident about their ability to cope if there is a 2nd way a 3rd to they would just not very confident this is the 6 survey conducted by the be a major gives a clear indication about feelings within the national health service say that there needs to be more government help put in place in order to support workers within the health care system. it's not just grown i think secondly it's also eat with the fact that we also eat have to pitch treat some of the illnesses that maybe have been pushed to the background but they do need to come back into the foreground plus a huge element of mental health coming along you know people are losing jobs and family members you know financial issues and once you know we might be focusing

a lot on the immediate deaths and the immediate health issues with coronavirus the longer term you know the mental health youth suicide rates all of that there is also going to have a huge burden on the n.h.s. and health care systems doctors also need time off nurses also need time off there's no amount of burnout so you know will there be enough staff to cope with it will that be enough beds to cope with it and what about the other sort of illnesses that are sort of been left by the wayside what are the surgeries that haven't been done so far what about managing cancers health care professionals aren't going to need some support because there is an element of post-traumatic stress disorder in that there is an element of their own mental health and wellbeing and if they would like to continue then you know there needs to be a lot more support and understanding given to them and the jobs that we do. publish

restaurants and hotels will all be able to reopen from the 4th of july in england but while the to meet a social distancing role is being eased are the safety measures are likely to be brought in and some of them are not being met with open arms shadier edwards daschle reports now from london. it's nearly 3 months since the u.k. fast went into lockdown when pubs court last orders and restaurants closed doors but despite non-essential businesses reopening the hospitality sector said it simply couldn't cope with the 2 me to social distancing in place and it seems the government given. the significant force in the prevalence of the virus so we can change the 2 metre social distancing route from the 4th of july the announcement came through while i was with the ross sea. tina and with the relaxed he thinks the sector is headed in the right direction to finally get back on track

this is what we this is what we do for a living for a choice. in the restaurant industry a profound love is not an easy life it's a very challenging and hard life but we live off the energy of the people we live off our customers we live off our teams and we're here because we want to open our doors and we want to recreate those magical memories for customers but the new normal comes with a new set of rules to make sure it's safe enough bars and restaurants will now have to provide a formal register of customers patrons will have to provide their names and their contact details upon arrival or when booking a table to make sure they're able to be contacted if there's an outbreak of the virus all of which makes popping in for a pint slightly more bureaucratic i probably give the details but at the same time you know if i didn't feel comfortable i probably just would probably have a drink at home instead you know i mean i'll be fine with that. according to people's preferences of course some people worry be. ok i never knew. from the

customer's perspective i feel like it's a bit much but everyone knows the time that we're in and the precautions that we're going to have to take i think if we're going to get the public in and we have to back then i think it's necessary and i'm happy to take it now these are the every major everywhere tell us. so that's another thing. so you get these times when i show you and even those in the industry think the new normal might be too much to handle restaurants are. places where people come and be social and they enjoy their time so it really depends on like what would it look like afterwards would still be a place where people will be able to do that. because at the moment i think what is needed to stress again is that the narrative needs to change so long as we keep on saying i'll board all social contact where possible a social industry will never come out of this restaurant's know how to keep you safe we've been doing that for years. there.
