. and throughout the day people have been coming to the scene where the incident happened to his family had asked those who wanted to pay respects to gather there instead of at his funeral our correspondent said vis reports from the city. who were still extraordinary as you can see many people have come today to push can scale metra station where a man from minsk alexander terrycloth ski was killed in the unrest it's difficult to count how many people are here they stand on both sides here they've completely filled the space near the entrance to the metro they're queuing to lay flowers or cars or honking as you can see for yourself. but you're. crowds also gathered outside the headquarters of the state broadcaster earlier staff that were invited to a meeting there with of the speaker of the upper house of parliament along with the

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 an 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 falsified cation 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 line with the constitution and he said that they don't need any court uncalled for and governments or at mediators for

that matter and of course so washington added their own 2 cents into the conflict and this is what they had to say about it i was glad to see the release of some protestors but that certainly is not in the community activists to support the bill and rescind people to achieve their sovereignty the range freedom of the peaceful radek insignias here outside of the bell russian embassy of course will be here to bring you any more developments we asked analysts how they think the bell or protest will play out. there are very strong similarities he lays out right now in front of us what happened praised we had a very simple it's not a color so i take it pretty successful color prevalent because the slavia the united states by the mind of many western countries was whatever it's sold it but also between speak would be to reject it we had the same rhetoric coming out of the west as we're getting yet that the government that is totally couldn't really

respond to any protests against even if they took by the that's what we're seeing so it's kind of really didn't see many times before and it doesn't end well i think that the previous thought that it did well for the people of your great there's tremendous interest if. it's all about democracy or human rights it's about how it's about economics and it's about geopolitics probably the better comparison is with ukraine in 2004 at the time of the so-called orange revolution the russian society whatever its own people should be president. is anxious to avoid not only the kind of violence the people that you saw in ukraine in february 2014 but all the problems that ukraine has had ever since and i think for those of us who want to see a peaceful and likely return democratic outcome by this it's very unfair that the losing side in any political process has options of coming back through the ballot once you fall clothes that then do risk civil war civil conflict which is off to

a lot as percent parts of ukraine. and so. the best thing for people but worse is that this crisis is disputed so peacefully but somehow the constitution. the german state of bavaria has been forced to onto the defensive after it was revealed around $900.00 travelers returning to the region were not told that they had tested positive for the coronavirus parties but are all or has more. 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 relight entire 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 bilinear. offered to resign twice i then asked her whether she had the courage to continue to carry out these tasks with as 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 but when something goes wrong he sends out the health minister i would have expected him to have the backbone to step up himself the advice for. anyone who's still waiting for test results is 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 the early spikes of covert infections are being seen in parts of europe france is recording around $3000.00 daily infections a 10 fold on last month that has prompted the u.k. to add it to its a quarantine list the french government said that unfortunately the virus been

going the wrong way there's been a 66 percent increase in the number of tests positive tests in the last week alone so unfortunately francis happened to be added to the quarantine list. london it gave people until 4 am on saturday to return to the u.k. if they wanted to avoid quarantine france is hugely popular with british tourists and many flock there when the lockdown was lifted the last minute announcement saw thousands rushing back to beat the deadline anyone who missed 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 british holidaymakers were given only about 24 hours notice that has angered some travellers who claim the areas they had been staying in had lower infection rates and then at home france is the 2nd most popular travel destination for brits some 160000 were there when of

a country was put on the quarantine list not all of those who wanted to return home have been able to we caught up with some of them. sample was out. so when we was allowed to go now when the. lights suddenly gave way and so we still i . think i made the wrong decision in the 1st yes we wouldn't get wind of the way we pay everything all the facilities completely in a boat and close a soon as the government and the gate way there was no way we could get any money back. we have. very difficult so they put anything in by st it's going to stop the spread so i would very general blanket ban on i mean 8 it says that we've got a current 14 day i think testing is a better option we've already been locked out for very very long. russia says it

started in the mass production of its controversial new covert vaccine moscow announced this week it was 1st in the world to approve a coronavirus job but there has been much concern around the globe that corners have been cut among those worried is donald trump you 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 the vaccine was created by russia's institute it took them only around 5 months of work critics say that it cannot have passed all the necessary trials to ensure that it is safe the head of the gamelan institute alexander ginzburg told us how they achieved such quick results.

proper but this vaccine was created strictly in accordance with russian law and 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. 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. vaccine research is conducted in many countries across the world but the russian

and soviet school of vaccine creation is a very serious one 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. 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 it was also this feeling that many in our profession have many microbe hunters the need to catch and liquidated. africa's biggest hydroelectric dam could spell disaster for sudan that is the warning from experts who say large parts of the country could be swallowed by sand

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 nord stream 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 the head of the bundestag energy committee klaus ernst feels that washington's behavior is unacceptable. it is unacceptable that any country like the united states tells another sovereign nation like germany or an independent european union how to deal

with the question of its own energy supply it's out of sync with normal relations in the era of globalization 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 we'll get rid of everyone here this is the current american policy but this is unacceptable and we should fight it there are 2 aspects the stakes one is a professional one and the 2nd one is more important independence of germany. washington has repeatedly claimed nordstrom to is a threat to european energy security the u.s. plans to sanction companies that don't pull out of the project calls ernst again believes germany should retaliate if this 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 looking for i guess under certain conditions even an embargo on american to hit the americans the same way they want to hit us and if they then notice that we are not the ones to concede easily if we are an opponent who can react to them 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 a particular economic response from our side. the creator of the popular online game fortnight is suing apple and google after the game was scrapped from their app stores epic accusing the tech giants of seeking to control markets and of anti-competitive practices to make its point it released this orwellian video.
