11:04 am
of the russian sovereign wealth fund which is financing the vaccine research and mind what steps still need to be taken. real radio received tentative interest and prelim in their requests for $1000000000.00 us vaccine we have also built partnership to produce a vaccine in 5 countries and we now have production capability over $500000000.00 but seems that can be produced in the next 12 months. produced in russia will be serving as the russian market and big scene for used in other countries will do surveying the country and also other markets and we expect clinical trials to start saudi arabia feel it becomes very soon we hope and took up clinical trials in different nations we opened door durst was always conscious of that scene and it was always come true is a production capability to produce for it seems we are open to licensing agreement
11:05 am
and partnership with them to produce our big scene we open to share all the technology was a us we believed again with every joint and then me which is kind of virus and we need to put aside our political a difficult we basically will really track people who are receiving the vaccine over the next couple of months there is a specific proprietor at best that got money institute developed that basically tracks very efficient and subordinate a bad king specifically as a spike was a colonel virus well they welcome news members of russia's science and research community that we've spoken to do say that there is still much to be done. because a limited number of people help the people who were tested and there seems to be no . negative effects of its books. there's also or information in the n.t. in the blood of the people who have been vaccinated and what he's against the
11:06 am
corroborates but that doesn't prove that the antibodies actually did and. from the infection and this is something that can only be tested during. these 3 trials which are yet to be done so i think it's really premature to announce that this is something which is ready to. let alone be destroyed or millions of people you know the last fight here us russian government in the last at a lot of money into development of immoral acts him and that's why our arsenal so good because it was faster during the last 5 years so there are 2 santos then developed democracy and both sometimes are only famous for russia so far south of us got my institute in moscow and to set the center is the very thought of institute in most of yours so these are 2 surplus of anti-viral experts that are actually a challenge for us so in a surely produce 2 different concepts. the rangar is still boiling in batteries in
11:07 am
the wake of the presidential election result riot police have been deployed art of violence erupted amid claims by be defeated opposition that the poll was rigged one protester was killed overnight becoming the 1st fatality of the crisis. i just take in the people that are doing i think you. have swallowed us a few years ago i've come out but i want to leave in a free and peaceful country for goodness that you. will come watch the whole march of this mass that's going on can you take i don't understand what hold. i. joining the protests in minsk several reporters but attain to you while covering
11:08 am
the clashes earlier the better russian authorities released several russian journalists who were taken to the russian embassy and driven by car to moscow one of the reporters simeone peggle could be seen in earlier footage from the clashes being knocked unconscious and dragged away by security forces but it is the worst civil unrest batteries has seen since the collapse of the soviet union meeting 30 years ago protestors have been building roadblocks and throwing. video evidence from roads to the car intrusion and an officer president into shank meanwhile insists the police response has been in order despite mounting concern from the pro . 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 of learning that you talk about the city the room $25.00 police
11:09 am
officers have been injured legs hands broken they would deliberately hit so they responded why are you crying now the response will be adequate we will not allow you to tear the country apart. meanwhile the main opposition candidate has fled to neighboring lithuania saying she did it for the safety of her family. 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 to hate well russian citizens living abroad have been staging their own private tests outside the embassy in moscow for example demonstrate is that demand change at home a number of russians also gathered to the manning the release of russian journalists who had been detained in minsk with more his. think of the following situation in
11:10 am
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 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
11:11 am
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 was riot police officers whether the road was blocked and they said no it's no come with us they twisted my hands and pushed me into their vehicle 200 or something meters away i should say they didn't beat me they behaved relatively well as well as riot police can behave as they put a plastic tonico my hands but didn't tighten it too much it was difficult to breathe so i didn't have enough force to climb on to the vehicle and just fall on its throat so these were just single isolated cases and i can tell you that was so . some reporters' connection has been lost for more than
11:12 am
a day but in constantine's 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 russian embassy in moscow on monday night we saw a fellow reporters coming here to deliver a strong message to the authorities in minsk when you go to the visit with me and i'm renting syrian pyrgos 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 he will eventually be such an honest sunan and others in the long list of journalists no matter russian or not were abused violence against journalists is unacceptable we are in produce
11:13 am
a 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 number 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 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 bell rues with protesters unfortunately possibly with journalists and police officers as well. as any prank of their will that genesis broadcast does believe that there might be some people deliberately staring the protests. if the 8 of these protests is to dislodge the velour see government and president bush and co then. they will be
11:14 am
violence because of course what they want is to have the the over reaction all or response from the authorities it is violent people getting killed which is a good many used to have those who want to see richie changing by the west bank come up and say look people have died stepaside look at franco sanctions etc i think we've seen this this film this movie before haven't we where we have united states and our allies in other countries saying even before a vote is cast that we will not accept this result whatever happens it looks and go wins we won't accept it and that that encourages then people to go out go out and the agent provocateur the idea who also go out there and provoke violence how can that be a response from the author 'd of his which could then be used which could then be used against you or it isn't a to legitimize for 'd. the government. now with covert spy here in a number of european countries at the moment to you health authorities are calling
11:15 am
for certain restrictions to be reintroduced and according to the latest risk assessment it needs to happen sooner rather than later to stop the spread so let's get more in this now from shell devinsky she's in paris 1st good evening to you charlotte seems to be ever increasing toll doesn't there in europe at the moment of a 2nd wave. yes that's right european health authorities in our countries to reinstate some of the restrictions that we've seen over the possibilities in an age to build what they see as being resurgence of transmission rate zip code and the 90 this is the european center for disease protection and control that it says with an uptake in code that something needs to be done for example we already know that greece is sad that it is formally now in a 2nd wave of the qubits 19 pandemic in the e.c. . d.c. says countries must take action. in countries where there is evidence that is
11:16 am
suggestive of increasing transmission the risk of further escalation is high for those countries the risk is very high if they do not implement or reinforce multiple measures including physical distancing and contact tracing. all that report from the e.c. d.c. doesn't specifically advocate the ideal of new look down to countries but the reports of these very clear that when the lock downs did take place across european countries they was a dramatic decrease in the transmission rate or could be 19 that these recommendations in this report by the u.s. health authority come as the routine commission is also aging its members to avoid what it's described as a 2nd wave of uncool t.v. to action within the book specifically talking about the idea of shutting down buddhist individually without the consensus of the entire book. the situation
11:17 am
is now volatile with some member states experiencing falling numbers and some unfortunately experiencing a rising number of cases we noted that in view of these developments some member states decided to maintain will reintroduce certain restrictions to cross border movement sometimes in a rather uncoordinated manner. now we know that some european member states and of course the e.u. have decided to reimpose quarantine measures for individuals coming from certain countries such as for example spain or belgian and there is a discussion the fronts could be next on my list for the u.k. in that quarantine now the european commission is that pains to state that the free movement of goods over christian coworkers particularly during the pandemic and of course essential travel must be safeguarded at all times which is why they don't want countries to take those individual decisions again the back shutting down the
11:18 am
buddhas and despite the warnings of the food the restrictions that we see in certain countries for example here in france this being many towns and cities have been imposing the fact that the facemask must be worn out some light in certain streets that was a rule that came into place here in paris all monday which means in certain parts of the city despite the fact that your tools will tingle's you must now face most there are many people who are still plotting the rules not just over the wearing of place mosque for example over the weekend there was an illegal rave held down in the south of france with around their 10000 attending that now the police will cool to that after complaints from locals of course any gathering of movement 5000 is currently banned here in france because of the risk of transmission rates and the reality is that you know while authorities and governments are deciding to take whatever action they deem necessary to prevent the transmission of could be 19
11:19 am
there are many people who are willing to just completely ignore the rules. i find so shallow shown to be valid for us. now the lebanese government has come up stuff for the entire cabinet quit made public at rage following well. last week's massive blast in beirut number of those killed now tops more than 200 but hundreds of 1000 left homeless furious locals have protested daily since several 1000 protested on the streets yesterday under the slogan carried the authorities 1st they didn't even stop when it was announced that the cabinet had quit they want the entire parliament to resign and hundreds of people were wounded in clashes with police and one officer was killed rubber bullets were used against the crag's when they stormed government buildings well with vast areas of our once vibrant city reduced to ruins it's left a devastating toll on families one couple we are about to show you were filming
11:20 am
what was meant to be the happiest day of their life thankfully they survived along with their family who described what they went through. i was screaming because i was afraid that i might find some of my family missing were injured or something bad happened to them. the most terrible moment was when we heard the loud explosion. and when we heard scream and we were looking at each other to now if any of us had been hurt. or dead and then the wedding took place in a miserable state of mind because we knew that there were wounded and dead and
11:21 am
there was chaos and missing people the groom and the bride and everyone else were confused thank god they got married but their state of mind was bad. during the explosion and i was sitting here on this and we were eating chickpeas. look at the blood on the window. on the day this calamity happened there was no hospital to receive a patient a sister stayed with me for 12 hours and called the hospital and they replied that they were unable to receive any one. of. my eyes and head we're all affected by the explosion with time i feel better. now 6 gulf powers including saudi arabia have backed extending an arms embargo on
11:22 am
iran in a letter to the un us resolution we put to the vote later this week but it is widely expected to be hit to hit a veto hurdle the security council in the meantime starting work because washington special envoy for iran is a veteran diplomat with quite a track record as one quarter he explains. i mean washington's friendly new envoy to iran mr elliott abrams who once had this to say a military strike at iran's nuclear facilities should be viewed as a realistic option he's anything but the new kid on the block though in fact he's got a very long record of being not exactly diplomatic. you might have heard about his most recent exploits in venezuela where he was appointed on boy just weeks before the failed coup against president nicolas maduro no dictatorship lasts for him on the sanctions there are plans to reinforce the effort the purpose of the effort is to diminish the resources available to the regime it's very hard i would say for me
11:23 am
to see. a dictator such as from the girl can really have a role to play in the building of a democratic venezuela. but venezuela wasn't elliot's only latin american adventure back in the 1980 s. he played an interval part in trying to overthrow the governments of el salvador and nicaragua i'm glad i'm all up for ronald reagan's administration. it appears to be an incident which is at least being significantly misused at the very best by the guerrillas.
11:24 am
last but definitely not least a twist the iran contra affair when the us government facilitated the sale of weapons to iran and hoped to use the profits to fund drug smuggling concert rebels fighting the socialist government in nicaragua although the reagan administration was able to skirt the borders of legality abram's admittedly guilty. to lying to congress about it and was given a free pass by president george h.w. bush i fail to understand why members of this committee or the american people should find any testimony that you give today to be truthful washington says abrams as it's new on voight but for to rahm it's anything but new . no difference between john bolton bryan hook or elliott abrams when it comes to the u.s. iran policy american officials have bitten off more than they could chew same applies to my pompei o'donnell trump and successes in addition to promising to
11:25 am
suffocate iran with maximum pressure of sanctions trump still hasn't provided a better nuclear deal than the one he took the us out of 2 years ago but who knows give him another 4 years and maybe it will get done if and when we win. we will make deals with the rand very quickly washington's been slapping sanctions and embargoes on iran for decades and you know what the country's still kicking but don't worry throwing another war hawk at iran will work this time washington promises. a quarter reporting and finally this hour artificial intelligence may be the future but it is still far from perfect at least that is according to a u.k. university study which does claim that the technology can suffer from racial bias. their presentations i think. teacher with them are directed through white racial
