6:02 am
still a lot of testing to be done yet no the scale of this pandemic is focused labs all around the world on to try to come out with a vaccine here russia's got in there 1st it seems and it also seems the signs are good. well probably the key word here is 1st because. i want to tell you the name of this vaccine right now all of the kompany that produced it decided to call it sputnik 5 roman numeral v. so sputnik 5 so that's the name for i guess analogies 1st in space and 1st in the fight against vaccine as well well a lot of here putin earlier today said that he hopes that mass production all for the vaccine will start very soon he said that's his own daughter actually got inoculated as well and after a couple of days off sleights temperature she is now flying actually let's have
6:03 am
a listen to what the russian president had to say. in regard to the vaccine. those who can use use of the student as far as i knew this morning the 1st vaccine for corona virus in the world was registered among the country's health minister to further inform us about what i already knew that it's working effectively and forming a tough immunity. and of course this vaccine was in testing with the russian military as well as a civilian company both civilians and military personnel took part in the next scene they all are ok and the next step according to the russian health ministry asked to do is to do further testing with 2000 people this time and according to the health ministry also they're saying that the. it's 2 phases nature and the vaccine will provide immunity against the virus for as long as 2 years old son regards to the news so with the vaccine the representative from
6:04 am
the world health organization says that said they are in such with the russian authorities in regards to the vaccine could sit here roman for you see up there. if you give more detail later on this evans when they hear it let us know come back to us later we'll get more now from the russian the scientific community should be delighted to say short notice professor to me treat coolish is on the line from the scope of institute of science and technology in moscow so we know the name no it's called sputnik 5 this 1st vaccine that and registered from russia a lot of hope going on this it sounds positive so far what are your initial thoughts is it good news for russians in the in the human race absolutely there is good news we are proud of it we are ready to discuss the risks and benefits of the situation is anyone who is interested so please ask any questions
6:05 am
so glad to keep discussion well the main thing is is it safe. look into land thrill. first face clinical trial that is in full compliance international guidance international regulations there are only 2 problems with this trial 1st it was not published yet and sakho are. of 40 people as far as their own number 40 that can be a little bit small 0 based on my experience it is a reasonably appropriate phase one trial that is compliant because global legislations is there anything at this stage that could go wrong. absolutely a live accent is a risk here and this is the reason why you can't europe and us deal a reduced creation because there are risks and at some point you will ask me so how
6:06 am
could it happen that russia is the 1st it was because russian government is running cropper pharmaco canonical analysis that accounts not only for people that may have fascination risks but also for people who have hardships related to sell for a solution and all kind of. they mean a regulations russia is going to take this is going to say russia is usually top of the game when it comes to spy and some medicine what does it mean that it's being registered here for the general public like us it just means it's a step forward towards it being used on the public or is that we've got this formula or no one else can use it what does it mean. it may answer that starting today russian medical organizations and russian medical doctors can legally prescribe and allow the use of this formulation nobody there will be forced to use
6:07 am
it nobody will be sent into any risk activity but if they have someone to use or this person will be able to use it and as as we all say here i am the 1st one who would use that if i'm given the chance. so ok so as it stands at the moment when when is he going to be rolled out to the public here in russia and is it only for russians or is it for the broader general public you know because other people use this if it's effective around the world is it painted. they don't think story is confidential also aigle not come and tell that you now lost baden last early stage patients are confidence for your answer cannot be years globally it's a very simple answer of course it can be but it's a commercial mummer because of global economy that is governed by free market rules
6:08 am
and that this will be a commercial negotiation between agent and professor a final one we hear there's another vaccine coming in behind it as well maybe not just this one that's been registered today there may be something else coming out behind that to tell us something about. absolutely why we have 2 different like cells that are so quickly developed in russia because you know in the last 5 years russian government in the last at a lot of money into development of in politics here that's why our actions are so good because it was faster during the last 5 years so there are 2 centers there developed a ball of oxygen and both countries are only thing with a russia so far center has got money institute in moscow and the 2nd center is exactly the institute in most of yours so these are 2 centers of anti-viral expert action asian expertise so naturally produce 2 different versions one of the side
6:09 am
effects of this we had our correspondent say just now the president putin's daughter has been given some of this stuff it caused a very very mild it cause very mild covert effects would that be the same one everyone that took this vaccine could you expect to have some sort of mild effects or could it become completely symptomless if you like. r.k. look. it's certainly don't love me symptom left because there are no viral but formulas for us to succeed is really noble and it has a boost can be an urgent message there are 4 there will be a lot of symptoms that are harder than these printers generational so functions that we are all all are used to if you want to see what kind of our diverse efforts you can expect from a summation of your may read asters any kind of university paper and one set that was published several weeks ago based on their phase alarm i am pretty sure that
6:10 am
our oxygen is quite identical to the salon in 2nd their efforts and the key problem as of today that is observed is that larry high person teacher of people approximately 10 to 20 it percent of people do homework center was i mean straight as they develop more of a high fever and all those people are healthy volunteers as of today so one of us you know comes to general population especially to people who are a recount by other diseases and there are 4 core and danger are going to harm by concluded this temperature rise or maybe danger oath and basically a president put you reported that his daughter experienced temperature ace oh yeah i've got 3 inches so not are the woodshed not completely flawless but it's a really good start isn't it in really good snow that russia's got here with his 1st registered vaccine professor dmitri could issue skolkovo instead you decide some technology in moscow working up sorry of folks are going to lovely to hear
6:11 am
this news and have a good day so thank you. thank you karen. there's been a further night a disturbance his umbrella roasts in the wake of president lucas shanker claiming another landslide election when the results being disputed by the opposition and the sing sporadic skirmishes on the streets and riot police deployed that unrest has now turned deadly to one protester confirmed killed overnight becoming the 1st casualty of a crisis that's unlikely to fade anytime soon. i . just take in the people that are doing i think you. have swallowed us here years ago i've come out of it but i want to leave in a free and a peaceful country you. welcome was the hallmarks of this mass that is going on can you take i don't understand
6:12 am
what hold. is the worst civil unrest by the rossa seen since the country emerged from a soviet union in the 30 years ago some protesters are also sought into. building barricades in fact one was reported to have driven a car in a riot officer present because shankar insists the police response is appropriate in the face of mounting concern from abroad including now the united states. the u.s. is deeply concerned about the conduct of the election which was not free and fair severe restrictions on violence access for candidates intimidation tactics against opposition candidates and detentions of peaceful protesters and journalists marred the process but i mean i did talk about the 30 people around 25 police officers have been injured legs hands broken they would deliberately hears it so they responded with why are you crying and the response will be adequate and we will not
6:13 am
allow you to tear the country up. well it's a little of that what we've got a number of low level protests from the russian citizens living abroad here in moscow there's a gathering outside the embassy as experts call for change back home and number of russians gathered to demanding the release of russian journalists a number of them in fact have been detained it means trying to talk this through what happened. think of the following situation in a post soviet republic russia's western neighbor on the one hand the opposition daily gearing up for nonstop protests like there's no tomorrow against a president who is a covert dissident who's been in charge of the country for more than 25 years i can tell you that some of the opposition have already been posting ways and instructions how to go and combat with police how to build barricades and yes indeed there have been some instances of authorities being attacked but then on the
6:14 am
other hand that same president alexander lukashenko claiming a landslide victory in a poll where he didn't allow pretty much any international observers ironically because of covert 19 and he also said that he wouldn't tolerate anything close to the my down protests in neighboring ukraine under these kind of circumstances when officers it seems have gotten the orders to get hold of pretty much anyone who decides to go out in the street to voice their discontent up probably journalists are the ones that are becoming the most vulnerable after the protesters and indeed we got proof of that on monday night when quite a few reporters were detained in belarus and cluing r.t. russian correspondent constantin but in the bi-lo yes but i saw it on pronounced riot police offices where the road was blocked and they said no it's no come with
6:15 am
us they trusted my hands and pushed me into their vehicle 200 or something to the way i should say they didn't beat me and they behaved relatively well as well as riot police can behave its usual they put a plastic tonico my hands and that didn't tighten it too much it was difficult to breathe so i didn't have enough force to climb on to the vehicles to just follow neutral so these were just single isolated cases and i can tell you that with. some reporters connection has been lost for more than a day but constrain thousands case he was lucky to be released quickly and he didn't suffer any injuries but again that wasn't the case all the time because we saw pictures of another colleague of mine. who's an experience were a journalist we saw him being carried seemingly unconscious after being beaten up and i can tell you that here outside the all russian embassy in moscow on monday night we saw fellow reporters coming here to deliver a strong message to the authorities in minsk when you go to the various would. go
6:16 am
flat before going to minsk he texted me if something happens to me send money to my wife yesterday night i was monitoring events and saw a photo of a guy being dragged by his hands that looks like simular but not his clothes so i forgot about it and on monday it turns out it was him seymour hersh essential monies that he known and others in the long list of journalists no matter russian or not who were being used violence against journalists is not acceptable we are in producer prince and the bands there are observers covering them does the opposition seem to have the intention of stopping what they're doing perhaps the answer is no you can look at the telegram channels through which the word is being spread in some cases they only had 100 or 1000 subscribers now again in some cases this has gone up to hundreds of thousands so this is clearly a signal that all the other had like i said with all the riot gear with rubber
6:17 am
bullets with water cannon the authorities are saying that they won't tolerate any of this so we could be in for more trouble in the streets of del roose with protesters unfortunately possibly with journalists and police officers as well. let's bring in political commentator professor john bridgeland joining us on the line who serve french company today the main opposition candidate in the election hey she's been in the news so much of late so long and taken off sky as them fled know to neighboring lithuania we're going to hear from in just a minute are you surprised that she's had to go. no you mean as opposed by what the gene that she's found with. sure anymore a better or study more. is that really cool is that the g. jews do. do. you make of the. urgent to be very careful about all these things because we don't know that much about what's going on and what's going on behind the scenes i mean it seems clear to me that
6:18 am
this is another occasion of regime change she body buried in a. little girl if russia. will be doing better who's in the persian actually says the interested in. getting both and for where i was and to have a. gun and policing of avoiding interference by the united states i mean i see the pictures of people in the street the way they're any different from what happened to the little innocent let's listen to was for not. to say sir of why she's felt she had to leave or come back she just let's listen in. here. i took a very difficult decision i did that by myself my friends family colleagues and husband did not influence me many will understand me many will judge many will start hate ok well there's already going very much about why she went away but it
6:19 am
seems that she didn't feel happy enough to be able to stay in belarus we know. last week that she sent children away is it you know it did do you think it is the case that it's not safe for her to stay in belarus or maybe she has gone there to make. her case over the border. well how can i know i mean i believe yes you know the elected president had to leave because of a coup and there is quite clear that his life was in danger because many of his supporters were killed major the new regime in the new regime is trying to prevent elections with support of. elected president this could be could be a candidate still you know i don't think this is what happens in the house is the worst thing that happens in the world and your overview about what's happened in belarus and i said stands today a lot of people know what i look at it a very unhappy there is again criticism of the way the votes being counted there that isn't indicative of the way the majority feel their dependency you listen to
6:20 am
doesn't it president look at. know he's going to keep the country safe and stable that's been his campaigning pledge all along he's the very model of stability and keeping the country on an even keel so is it all the other dusted now is everything going to is that that's going to settle we're going to see more of this opposition it's impossible to know i don't know how popular the opposition he said don't know anything about how the counting of the elections was made them against interference by foreign bells in the. hose and he's going to of used to mean that the united states is going to try to support as much trouble as possible in bellows or hit obvious to you. in ukraine change of regime like in ukraine what why is it obviously what are you saying that makes it obvious just just tell us. but because they are to every you know socialistic police here in the world they were happy
6:21 am
that lawlessness and i mean when there is more or less in that area than the united states supporting you will. they will say well the elections are not regular and they want to. have been hunting in the sense used to be at these. geo political matter because they. try to you know they are going to try to overthrow it on any place in the world where they. try to intervene to try to intervene in china and they try to intervene in russia. and say we're in the america and in your hands. that's what i think is the main problem in the world today is these guns and interfere in the united states as well about the internet i feel better i don't have much of an opinion and nothing i should have much of. except. from the point of view of the western interventionist professor plays a commentator. with these demonstrations go back to get you back on the program
6:22 am
give us more comment on it thank you for. thank you very much. the lebanese government and the prime minister have resigned after mounting public anger following her last tuesday's devastating chemical explosions the number of deaths is no thought to be over 200 and hundreds of thousands are homeless and there's been days of protests as local squarely blame the government citing years of endemic corruption our middle east correspondent polis leo reports next from near to one of the overnight disturbances. situation here is becoming more and more unruly behind you seem to be lebanese police they've managed to push protesters all the way back from the parliament building we're now in one of the side streets here is tear gas and we're going to move forward a little bit because rocks are being thrown in our direction by the protesters now the protesters are still out on the streets despite the fact that it earlier the lebanese prime minister resigned he resigned along with his cabinet but what the protesters here are telling me is that they are not going to stop taking to the
6:23 am
streets until the whole parliament itself resigns so it's possible that scenes like this will continue we've witnessed people being wounded again we've witnessed ambulances fearing them to and from the scene so a lot of the same scenes unfolding as we've witnessed over the past 2 days this is violence that started on saturday night more than 700 people have been injured one policeman so far has been killed are no we getting tear gas ok at our hour break for a moment while i put on my mask and we'll show you what the last few days of violence have looked like.
6:24 am
now people here are calling this a revolution i've been talking to protesters and they say that this revolution is not going to be over as i mentioned until the parliament itself resigns beirut really hasn't witnessed scenes like this in many many years we've had lots of tear gas on the streets there but the camera man was injured at the same time the police are being accused of using excessive force and they have admitted to using both tear gas and live bullets we going to move forward again because the tear gas is coming in this direction in reply to some even towards us but as i say the situation in baby to a lot of anger a lot of frustration not only about the explosion at the port but who also on the whole mismanagement of the government and its failure to take accountability and responsibility this is actually the 2nd government shutdown not sure how true 1.
6:25 am
100 government resign and you know for sure the last year and then a really good managers of corruption that wasn't you want so it may well be that person you know remains in power as a church of prime minister for another 2 so you hold one serve just as well no you have to resign they want independent people who have some kind of reputation credibility and accountability so that's what was in the seconds and as i said. as things that people wanted new parliamentary elections in the hope the new kind of us would emerge the same old model where it was the last 30 years and you get the new accession you can strongly. well every time you see this is a riff it isn't it there's almost nothing left of the site where nearly $3000.00 tons of ammonium nitrate exploded but the repercussions of being felt across the city and the broader country is the already stretched health service already so overwhelmed by cove it is now being overwhelmed by the thousands of injured victims with thousands of homes and businesses destroyed it's leaving you think calculable
