in that world are well into. question the. russia claims to have developed the world's 1st corona virus vaccine although clinical trials have yet to be completed the health minister says it's been tested and is saying. the streets of belarus are seeing a 3rd consecutive night of unrest following the recent presidential election police have once again blocked off public squares and are detaining people amid clashes with law enforcement. and in beirut people gather at the port where the devastating

chemical blast occurred exactly a week ago it comes a day after the country's government collapsed when the cabinet quit on must amid huge pressure from protesters. good evening and welcome to the program this is our to international coming to you live from the russian capital with your life news update. russia's claiming to be leading the global race against the coronavirus president putin says the country is the 1st to register a vaccine which is now ready for mass testing next week i'm using the stew and you as far as i know this morning the 1st vaccine for corona virus in the world was registered on the country's health minister to further inform us about that but i already know that it's working effectively and forming a tough immunity. that scene was developed a moscow institute has 1st clinical trials were said to have been successful and

mass production is expected to begin in september medical workers teachers and those considered to be in other high risk groups will be the 1st to receive it as planned or is it released to the general public is set for the new year though the developers say 2000 more people will be vaccinated shortly as research continues meanwhile more than 1000000000 doses of the russian vaccine have been requested by more than 20 countries now but alas there are many who remain skeptical about this vaccine and putting health experts in the us a welcoming the newest members of russia's science and research community that we've spoken to say there's still much to be done dimitri of the head of the russian sovereign wealth fund that's investing in the country's research talked about the new vaccine. both on the russians people of the wall the very dire tools of virus a very tired of the restrictions a very tired old the refused to come on we could give those if one of the countries

. in which we believe this very sick very effective rate was if. people now have better hope to raise your normal life as a vaccination. well i'm confident enough to inject the legacy of myself my wife my of and your 4 year old parents and i think it's very important that we understand the science behind the vaccines so russia great historic knowledge of which you can get my interest groups has developed very successful in all of it seeing and mercy and then basically current virus just proved to be very similar the merce so we've had great science and will like that there is a good has been done really applied where 8 blows a lead goes a fight they're not hiring you tend to chill for auction because. everything will be almost i've seen to date i know as a 100 percent always a line cheers elop or

a strong immune response or significant side effects of 100 percent protection of animals for as you are still level of immunity. it will produce stronger immune response going forward we believe because only once who have those 2 different at the number i respect there is a used billet was a vaccine and that means that our books in response will last longer hopefully it will be more than a year all scientists believe that years but of course physicist act. will be needed to really understand the duration of the vaccination. and ever since people were starting to receive permission about a week to hear more and more interest but frank a lot of western media outlets blocked access to our information so i think now we have great construed this information bear is it exists and the more people understand what we can do they go to us because of our fight to learn about the

election in more countries become interested even today we shared a major announcement by israel serbia militants of brazil who are interested who scores a russian mix you don't work with us on that. dr peter smith professor of tropical epidemiology at the london school of hygiene and tropical medicine believes the coded crisis has meant that vaccine trials have been accelerated abnormally and it's significant in the sense that there are about 150 different back scenes that are being developed none of them to my knowledge as yet in license so in that sense it sets in court announcement it says is that says license vaccine unfortunately what we don't know at the moment is what the data were that actually was the basis for the license sure but it sounds as though relatively small numbers of people have so far received as taxi in which case it's very typical i would say almost

impossible to assess whether the bank scene is actually efficacious or. sound reservations about knowing that the safety of the vaccine generally new vaccines are not the least until they been in trials a year or 2 years possibly even 5 years because of the exceptional situation with the suspect because a 19 and damage. vaccine trials are being accelerated. the unrest triggered by the weekend's disputed presidential election and belarus has spilled into a 3rd night police have cordoned off public squares in the capital minsk and several people have reportedly been detained amid continuing clashes with law enforcement.

correspondent paula slayer reports from the city. this is the 4th consecutive night that we witness protests here in front of the parliament building the situation remains as tense as it has been for the last few days as you can see behind me the protesters have started a fire and they throwing rocks and bits of cavemen to at the police officers and the army on the other side nabil army has been responding with tear gas which claimed the crowd the side surges that what people here are telling me is that they're not satisfied with just the way as a nation of the lebanese prime minister they want to hold hanumant to the sign at the same time make one point into came to an investigation into what happened at the very last they say it's not enough for an internal they have a nice investigation but the government here says if that's what they want to show it all issue of sovereignty now the mood is quite volatile it doesn't seem that with the passing of days the protesters here are in any way becoming satisfied if

you just look around you can see that they still a lot of anger they still relatively large numbers showing out on the streets the same surely the situation in beirut continues to remain extremely tense and this comes as the numbers of missing suddenly turns into. sunny's and i sang 20 people dead we're not hearing sounds of tear gas so the crowd is starting to move backwards the fear is at any moment the situation here and i can i can actually smell to the situation is becoming increasingly felt the danger .

right behind me is the army liaison of tear gas in the air they've managed to push the protesters further away from the parliament building and down the street so we've taken a position just behind the army the straight hero is the rocks and stones at the protesters are throwing and there is the left overs smell of tear gas in the air as you can see the riot police and the army are in full gear they're taking this seriously they have been accused of excessive force and they've admitted that they have used knives ammunition and tear gas in the process. the explosion in beirut took a devastating toll on families there one couple were about to show you were filming what was meant to be their happiest day of their lives thankfully they survived and along with their family describe 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 that the wedding took place in a miserable state of mind because we knew that there were wounded and dead and there was chaos and missing people the groom and the bride and everyone else were confused thank god they got married but their states of mind was bad. during the explosion i was sitting here on the sofa and we were eating chickpeas. look at the blood on the window.

on the day this calamity happened there was no hospital to receive the patient a sister stayed with me for 12 hours and called the hospital and they replied that they were unable to receive anyone but. my eyes and head were all affected by the explosion with time i feel better. still had a hero health authorities call from lockdown measures to be brought back amid fears of a 2nd wave of covert infections all that after the short break. so

what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy one from day shouldn't let it be an arms race in this on off and spearing dramatic development that only really i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk.

welcome back with covert cases spiking and a number of european countries health authorities are calling for certain restrictions to be reintroduced and according to their latest risk assessment and has to happen sooner rather than later to stop the spread. as the details. european health authorities of countries to reconsider imposing certain restrictions as this in the uptick in the coded 19 transmission rates this is the european center for disease prevention and control and it is aging member states to take action now in countries where there is evidence that is 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 now the report talks about reinstating control measures

a lot it doesn't specifically absa case new york down see here in europe it does state that when those knock downs happened there was a dramatic decrease in the transmission rate over could be 19 this comes as the european commission is also urging member states to take action together to avoid a 2nd wave of uncooled action this is the particularly the closure over the border is the situation is now volatile with some member states experiencing falling numbers and some unfortunately he 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 this comes as member states and the u.k. are imposing quarantine only individuals coming from certain countries now the european commission is at pains to state that the freedom of movement within european borders easy even for to now despite the warnings of this upsurge in

transmission rates old could be 19 and the new restrictions in place for example here problems which means now in certain areas tools you must wear a face mask there are many people who are still flouting the rules particularly down in the south of france over the weekend where 10000 people are said to gather in the legal grave so while authorities are urging more and more caution it seems that there are more and more people willing to flout those rules. 6 gulf powers including saudi arabia have backed plans to extend an arms embargo on the ram and a letter to the u.n. a u.s. resolution will be put to a vote later this week but it's widely expected to be both vetoed at the security council meanwhile a veteran diplomat with a colorful past has started working as washington special envoy for iran the recorder has a story. meet 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 to see. a dictator such as 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 enter gold part in trying to overthrow the governments of el salvador and nicaragua and guatemala 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. 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 and nicaragua although the reagan administration was able to skirt the borders of legality abrams 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 its new envoy but for turan it's anything but new. no difference between john bolton and brian who 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 pump a 0 donald trump and successes in addition to promising to suffocate iran with maximum pressure 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 given another 4 years and maybe it'll get done if and when we will. we will make deals with the rand very quickly washington's been flopping 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. artificial intelligence may be the future but it is still far from perfect at least according to a u.k. university study which claims that technology can suffer from racial bias. their presentations of intelligent machines in our future with them are directed through white racial bring their whiteness to proxy for how we perceive they see this passion. and. landing suggested robots quite naturally evolve i was hoping to see you again if you could use your friend to draw
