a week to express their solidarity with the people in belarus 6 meanwhile a phone conversation between russian and villa russian presence took place earlier on saturday and both leaders expressed confidence that all problems and belittle the settled have very soon they also added that the main goal is not to let external forces that sake advantage of this situation and of course put a wedge in the cooperation between russia and belarus the european union is now offering its own solution on the situation in the country the european union will put forward to the better russian authorities a proposal for e.u. support and establishing and facilitating a dialogue between the political authorities opposition and broader society in view of resolving the current crisis ministers also agreed on the need to sanction those responsible for violence repression and the full suffocation of election results sanctions are the end of politics the key question now is what kind of policy the

e.u. has towards biller us for osce the european union is one of our top priorities at a strategy meeting with the defense ministry alexander lukashenko noted that. the government in this country was formed in a line with the constitution and he said that they don't need any quote unquote foreign governments or a mediators for that matter and of course so washington added their own 2 cents into the conflict and said this is what they had to say about it i was glad to see the release of some protesters but that certainly is not in the community activists to support the bill and rescind people to achieve their sovereignty the range freedom the peaceful radek insignias here outside of the bell russian embassy and of course we will be here to bring you any more developments. wealth on the lists whether they think the e.u. sanctions plan will have the desired effect. there are discussion with the european

union because they are in a difficult situation because on one sacked. they would like of course some political change the changes in their lives get in the same time they don't want to . serve their interests most western countries and especially i think germany wants to have them niggas here she was told a moment the sanctions they are talking about are mostly symbolic and not really profound we will see how the situation will change but it was before the lion reef president of the european commission said that the president of the there should be more careful in the way the chicks vote and i give her case for her to very concerned about the election result she says of what's happening is unacceptable from the european union quote if you give it a very very very delicate situation they don't want it to go to ruth who feels

they don't want to call for the liberal removal or pretty much. go instead to say who would take his place. but demonstrated by the area has been forced to the defense is after it was revealed around $100.00 travel experts heading to the region were told were not told that they had tested positive for the coronavirus peace all of it has more details. there's been a huge blunder in the german states if the varia with 844000 corona test a backlog $900.00 of those still waiting for their results and known to have tested positive the man in charge of germany's largest state says he's sorry for the delay is due to example dot secure relighting times state government is sorry that these mistakes happened both the minister and also me personally that many people are now unsure as to what happened to their test results the reason given is the sheer

number of people coming into germany from holidays elsewhere and taking covert tests by the roadside and train stations in both areas this move was brought in very quickly by the state and the information had not been recorded digitally mistakes happen in such extraordinary times the officials say the bavarian health minister though had offered her resignation over the blunder. to resign twice and then asked whether she had the courage to continue to carry out these tasks with a she wanted to and could in both cases she said yes markets has made a bit of a reputation for himself during the corona pandemic as a mr fix-it that internecine his name touted as a potential successor to chancellor merkel when she steps down ahead of next year's election opposition leaders have been quick to use the testing delays to twist the knife on claims he's all talk and no final product if

a state premier is always presenting himself as a crisis manager and constantly patting himself on the back he also has to take responsibility of point suring that things were when announcing new coronavirus measures he doesn't miss a press conference when something goes wrong he sends out the health minister i would have expected him to have the backbone to step up him self the advice for any . while you still waiting for test results it's pretty simple just get the test done as germany and the rest of europe brace for a 2nd wave of covert 90 peter all of rotty early. spikes of covert infections are being seen in parts of europe france is recording around $3000.00 daily infections up 10 fold on last month that's prompted the u.k. to add it to its quarantine list with the french government so that unfortunately the virus been going the wrong way there's been a 66 percent increase in the number of positive tests in the last week alone

so unfortunately france is having to be added to the quarantine list well and then gave people until 4 am this morning to return to the u.k. if they wanted to avoid quarantine france is hugely popular with british tourists and many flocks there when lock down was lifted the last minute announcements or thousands rushing back to beat the deadline. and you want to miss the deadline will now have to self isolate for 2 weeks when they return the rule also now applies to those coming from the netherlands which is holiday makers were given only 24 hours notice well that has angered some travelers ok in the areas they had been staying in had lower infection rates than at home france that is this the 2nd most popular travel destination for brits some 160000 were there when the country was put on the quarantine list not all of those who wanted to return home have been able to and we caught up with some of them. travel was out 'd. so when where was

allowed before it was safe to go where no one or lights so maybe they thought. i think i made the wrong decision in the 1st oh yes we wouldn't get one on the way we pay everything all the facilities completely in the boat and close as soon as the government opened up the gate way there was no way we could get any money back but we were aware that. very difficult so they put anything in place really that's going to stop the spread so i would very general blanket travel i mean say that says that we got a quarantine 14 days i think testing is a better option we've already been knocked out for very very long time when russia says it started the mass production of its controversial new covert vaccine was going out this week it was the 1st in a while to approve

a coronavirus job but as the much concern around the globe the corners have been cut among those worried is donald trump i don't know much about it. we hope it works we do we hope it works they've cut off certain trials and we just feel it's important to go through the process we have numerous different vaccines that we think are going to work but we want to go through a system of trust and vaccine was created by russia's galilei institute it took the money around 5 months of what critics say cons of possible the necessary trials to ensure it safe the head of the gamma lai institute alexander told us how they achieved such quick results. pile up a bullet this vaccine was created strictly in accordance with russian law this allows a vaccine to be developed more rapidly during an emergency and the coronavirus pandemic is definitely an emergency we haven't reduced the number of tests required

to prove that the vaccine is safe rather we are running tests in parallel but when the pandemic started we were working on a vaccine against mers which is also a type of corona virus and is more lethal than covert 19 this research had almost completed the 2nd phase of tests so we had all the methodology in place. for over 3500 people have tried this vaccine without suffering any serious side effects just some minor ones that one gets with any type of vaccine for example a slight temperature which can be relieved with a dose of paracetamol and this will be made clear in the instructions for use. of our. vaccine research is conducted in many countries across the world but the russian and soviet school of vaccine creation is a very serious one and our institute for example we have 4 generations of scientists working together so the knowledge we transmit is not just via papers and

electronic devices but directly from one person to another when young researcher comes to me i always know which of our scientists can give them appropriate advice someone that's worked in the field for many many years. absolutely in your bill at their course absolutely not the only feeling was to defend myself my relatives and our population and just to complete the task we had been given namely to find a vaccine and there was also this feeling that many in our profession have many microbe hunters the need to catch and liquidate it. africa's biggest hydroelectric dam could spell disaster for sudan that's the warning from experts who say large parts of the country could be swallowed by sand.

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race in this on the spear in dramatic development

only really i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. welcome back the e.u. has written to the u.s. saying it's highly concerned about washington sanctioning companies working on the north string to pipeline project with russia the european union considers the dixons who eternal application of sanctions is illegal under international law at the same time european union continues to higher value just in time to unity the common foreign and security goals which increases the impact of sanctions we welcome the concern and look on these issues department of state is updating the public guidance for katz authorities to include north stream to the 2nd line of turk stream to this section puts investments or other activities that are related

to these russian energy export pipelines at risk of u.s. sanctions it's a clear warning to companies aiding and abetting russia's malign influence projects will not be tolerated get out now or risk the consequences nor strain to runs through the baltic sea and will deliver natural gas to germany bypassing traditional transit countries like ukraine european companies are also part of the costly project which aims to double gas imports from russia to germany ahead of the bundestag energy committee klaus ernst it fails washington's behavior is an unacceptable. this is unacceptable that any country like the united states tells another sovereign nation like germany or an independent european union to deal with the question of its energy supply it's out of sync with normal relations in the arab world the relation things cannot be achieved by blackmail the

americans say if you don't do as we want we want to protect you and if we protect you then you have to pay for that and we should pay with the import of liquefied guess and if you don't do that get rid of everyone here this is the current american policy with this is unacceptable we should fight it there are 2 aspects the state one is a professional one and the 2nd one is more important independence of germany. washington has repeatedly claimed stream 2 is a threat to european energy security the u.s. plans to sanction companies that don't pull out of the project cal's own state again believes germany should retaliate if that happens. we should let the americans understand that if they continue this kind of behavior it will cause economic damage that is why 'd i advise imposing punitive tariffs on american liquefied guess and under certain conditions even an embargo on american. the americans the same way they want to hit us if they then notice that we are not the

ones to concede easily we are an opponent who can react to that we should negotiate how the 2 countries can lift the sanctions as soon as possible because this is the real game we don't want to impose more sanctions we want to prevent american sanctions by means of our own sanctions and i think we need to show the americans are particular economic response from our side. it creates all of the popular online game fortnight is suing apple and google earth off to the game was scrapped from that app store epic accuses the tech giants of seeking to control ma case and of anti competitive practices to make its point for least this video.

apple has blocked fortnight from the app store removing everyone's ability to install and update the game on i os devices keeping prices high so they can collect 30 percent of your payments and this blocking fortnights in order to prevent epic from passing on the savings apple has become what it once railed against a behemoth seeking to control markets block competition and stifle innovation. in the latest update for not developers allowed in game purchases to be made directly for epic games at a lower cost this is violated the terms of service of both apple and google who are saving 30 percent from each transaction the update led both tech giants to ban the game from their platforms. the fact that their business interests now lead them to push for a special arrangement does not change the fact that these guidelines create a level playing field for all developers and make the store safe for all users for game developers who choose to use the play store we have consistent policies that affair to developers and keep the store safe for users or for not remains

well has companies in the entire world which is now expected they have to pay to have about $30.00 they only paid 15 percent and this also isn't the 1st time that people have tried to call attention to apple share of the market but this is the 1st time that's been publicized since the 1st time that it's really being. shown as a genuine threat to the way that things have been carried out. transform a lawyer has the forward for my new book about his old both one year ago michael cohen was found guilty of fraud and perjury and was sentenced to 3 years in jail he was released and is currently under house arrest but he's still promising to dish the dirt on trump and if a new book something the white house has already dismissed as fiction.
