for joining us midday here in moscow. moscow says that it has yet to receive any concrete evidence from the german government regarding claims that russian opposition leader alexina valmy was poisoned by a nerve agent earlier announced it had found traces of navi chalk on the 2 weeks after the activists fellow on the flight to moscow was lifted for treatment in germany. has the latest from berlin. moscow is far from happy with the way this announcement was handled by the german partners the russian ambassador was called in for a meeting at the foreign ministry only after statements had been made to the press now following his meeting said again the russian ambassador said he wasn't presented with any facts from his german colleagues the foreign ministry in moscow has called this megaphone diplomacy what we knew but that only if there was any data we would work with that there is no data there are only statements amounting
5:02 am
to megaphone diplomacy because they're voiced by foreign ministry many were waiting to hear what the doctors had to say the russian doctors in arm 6 share their conclusions with the public and provided facts and data that's not something we see here the ambassador of the russian federation was invited to the foreign office and informed about the contents of the german government's declaration in the so-called in the van only case however no fact based documents were given to the ambassador the foreign ministry went on to say the usual lines of communication between him and moscow were ignored in russian requests weren't answered we did hear a lot from chancellor merkel and foreign minister of germany heiko mouse on wednesday though here's what they had to say and since bush took to the informant soon it is obvious that one of the lead an opposition figures in russia has been poisoned as specialized laborde 3 of the armed forces came to a clear conclusion that aleksey never in the was poisoned with
5:03 am
a substance from the novacek group he's the victim for crime someone tried to shut him up the aisle following up with the sleep we demand an investigation into the poisoning of aleksey now while we condemn this poisoning and in the near future will hold consultations and how europe can adequately respond to it it will also depend on russia's response to the case well chancellor merkel also pointed out that the eyes of the world were watching the case and that's. we've been represented in what we've seen both leaders of the united kingdom and e.u. leaders voicing their concerns over the situation it's outrageous that a chemical weapon was used against a look scene of on the we've seen 1st hand the deadly consequences of novacek in the u.k. the russian government must now explain what happens mr we will work with international partners to ensure justice is done i was informed by chancellor merkel that russian the position they didn't advise it was attacked or the know the agent in his own
5:04 am
country this is a despicable and cowardly act once again that betrayed his need to be brought to justice conspicuous by his absence when it comes to international reaction with u.s. president donald trump however his democratic opposition in the upcoming u.s. presidential elections joe biden did say that the lack of a response from president trump showed that he was weak on russia something that biden promised he wouldn't be and that the novelli case was just another example of that alexei the volley took ill 2 weeks ago on a flight from siberia to moscow he's been here in berlin since the 22nd of all guest doctors say that he's in no acute danger has no acute danger to his life but he remains in an induced coma at the shot at a hospital here in the german capital of germany's claims about what happened in the valley as seen western politicians demand sanctions against russia including ones targeting a major joint energy project is ranked as the digs deeper into the allegations

being thrown moscow's way. nuvi choke again they say the notorious talks and that has heaped infamy on russia over trucks a group of toxins by the way with slightly different variations of liquid gas powder one of the deadliest substances known to man rebel solves the huge operation launched there hundreds of people in full hazmat gear everyone afraid of exposure and here is apparently exposed to this new feature variation which by the way can evaporate and become airborne at room temperature and he's flying in a jet where he feels sick scores of people crammed together and no one doubts reports feeling the thing including the people he was with if the germans had got clear evidence of no virtual something like being used they should give that information over to the russians and the russians and that didn't happen with
5:06 am
scruples on the soles and i doubt whether or happen again and there's many questions like you know he was on the airplane then he landed why isn't anybody else i mean again another echo of this report case as far as i can see we need some transparency here before we start escalating this into any kind of sanctions trade war. any kind of military conflict there are a lot of questions now speculation and rumors and thinks this is a time to wait to let investigators collect the facts unless you want to use the moment the confusion the hysteria the anger to tear up russian german ties to stop a pipeline for example hope for the north stream to pipeline to hold the russians accountable. the obvious murder attempt by the mafia like structures of the kremlin can no longer just worry us it must have real consequences that is why
5:07 am
a very clear answer is needed here north stream 2 is nothing that we can promote together with russia germany says it will share its lab results and 5 degrees with e.u. nations and get this nato new response to russia's offers of a legal assistance that medical corp russia will learn that the value they had been poisoned not from the german government but from the news of the names as early as august 27th the russian general prosecutor's office addressed the german justice ministry with an official request for legal assistance the office also expressed its readiness to present to the german side the test results and research carried out after missing a man's hospitalization the german justice ministry confirmed it had received their request but so far that's it whenever such a thing which started diplomatic reaching the hazards they always have to us. who is benefiting who does something with bennett and we have as we have already
5:08 am
heard this equation that there are heavy forces will go want a closer relationship between russia and germany specially according to the last 3 to project but we're also there that the that you have to ask what could the russian government benefit of such a thing with this poland politicians there was no danger for the russian government would be that. they're already talking about sanctions guilty by default which is remarkable given the circumstances so the russian government out of the blue decides to poison an opposition politician who has been after the kremlin for years using one of the world's deadliest substances we. russia has said repeatedly it doesn't have so they do this improbable and highly stupid thing and these survives
5:09 am
it he goes to a russian hospital where the doctors do everything to save his life get him stable and they succeed the russian government which just apparently tried to kill this fellow greenlights a private jet to said him to one of europe's best clinics to get help his body apparently didn't evidence locker treaty banned substances so far that their best version. the trump of ministration has announced that the u.s. won't participate in a joint global effort to develop and distribute a corona virus vaccine because the world health organization is involved follows the white house decision in july to withdraw from the organization of unwilling of the pandemic president trump also allege the agency is under the sway of china ylem orpen looks at the recent developments. the united states will not be joining international efforts to produce that scene due to political concerns and you see
5:10 am
this is yet another blow to health diplomacy the united states will continue to engage our international partners to ensure we defeat this virus but we will not be constrained by multilateral organizations influenced by the corrupt world hope organization and china eat lobel vaccine initiative known as oh that x. is co-lead by the world shelf organization 170 different countries are participating the goal is to get global distribution for several different vaccines after they've been licensed and approved by the end of 2021 the world health organization has repeatedly warned about the dangers of global just unity and need a pandemic warning about the need to oppose vaccine nationalism and above all national unity. and global solidarity soon should. this virus thrives when we are divided when we are united we can defeat
5:11 am
to win a successful new vaccine is found there will be greater demand then there is supply excess the mind and competition for supplies already creating bucks emotionalism and risk of price gouging relations between the united states and the world health organization had been strained for quite some time despite his praise for the organization at the beginning of it and dammit donald trump made a huge turn and pulled the united states out of the global watch dark because they have failed to make the requested and greatly needed reforms we will be today terminating our relationship with the world health organization and redirecting those funds to other worldwide and deserving urgent global public health needs latest decision from the united states to pull out of efforts for a global vaccine have raised a storm of criticism or ologists and politicians have spoken up so that down
5:12 am
throughout this essentially shooting himself in the foot trumps go it alone strategy has already given us the highest death toll in the world at his inaugural he spoke of american carnage and now seems to term and to make it a reality. america 1st doesn't apply to pandemics viruses don't observe national borders if anyone is at risk we all are refusing to cooperate with other countries on vaccines will kill people this latest decision from the united states to pull out local vaccine efforts may be seen as just the latest example of donald trump's ambitious america 1st policy however comes to a situation like this it might not be wise to put pride and politics over your population it would mark them are to new york. washington has imposed sanctions on senior officials that the international

criminal court perspective statement says the i.c.c. is corrupt and has no authority the international criminal court. thoroughly broken in corrupted institution. the united states has never ratified the rome statute that created the court and we will not tolerate is illegitimate have to subject americans to its jurisdiction. washington's unhappy with the i.c.c. scurrah and investigation into alleged u.s. war crimes in afghanistan the court is also investigating america's close ally israel of a possible crimes related to jewish settlements in the west bank and east jerusalem neither the us nor israel belong to the i.c.c. the court itself has condemned the sanctions. these coercive facts directed at an international judicial institution and its civil servants around president did and constitute serious attacks against the court and the rule of law or more generally secretary of state compares announcement today marks
5:14 am
a stunning perversion of u.s. sanctions devised to penalize rights abuses and kleptocrats to persecute those tasked with prosecuting international crimes the trumpet ministration has twisted the sanctions to obstruct justice not only for certain war crimes victims but for atrocity victims anywhere looking to the international criminal court for justice human rights lawyer dunk of alex as international law should apply to all countries with no exceptions. the us for many decades. has taken the position that because it has a mighty is military in the world. it doesn't have to be. subject to international law. it's above international and i think trump is just frankly taking that to its logical the united states's been a hose to the international criminal or it leashed as to the extent that
5:15 am
the i.c.c. could prosecute western countries. from the very beginning and now trump is sanctioning it because it wants to investigate us war crimes in afghanistan and is ready to work crimes in palestine it would be fair for other countries to say look us you know what's good for the goose is good for the gander the international law doesn't apply to you it doesn't apply to me. take john rolled out a new cope with 900 contact tracing system but critics say that it may compromise previously or not after the break.

5:18 am
we spoke to journalist all of a tickle who says that too much time has been wasted. the japanese government does seem to want to put a line on the incident. but. it falls short of taking full responsibility no one has acted. with integrity with urgency there was a precious time window of 12 days between the original accident taking place on the
5:19 am
25th of july and the boat breaking up and releasing oil on the 6th of august and 1 has to wonder why you know why was all that time allowed to pass in some kind of marine rescue could have taken place and is only really the local people of the richest people in the fishing communities that have been affected by the oil spill who really seem to have done everything that they possibly could in order to put this damn it right and who deserve the highest praise for what they've done. google and apple have announced a new covert 900 contact tracing system which runs on smart phones the idea is to help users find out when they've come into contact with an infected person and the tools are integrated into the i o. s. and android operating system so there's no need to download an app. as the next
5:20 am
step in our work with public health authorities on exposure notifications we are making it easier and faster for them to use the exposure notification system without the need for them to build and maintain an app the new system called exposure notifications express will work like a notification tool and uses bluetooth signals from smart phones that have opted in someone tests positive for go over 19 push notifications are sent out to other phones informing is that they might have been exposed to the virus but there are fears that the new updates might pose a threat to people's privacy we asked people what they think. kind of good idea again it's invading privacy and if it's just another form of china check that. i know you care about your privacy buy you care about other people you know it's you know for the benefit of the success of the city you're going to i feel like apple and google probably could use it for profit but like in the case of call of it i
5:21 am
think it would probably be helpful and discern feel comfortable with big brother knowing everything that i do you know it's that that's the 1st step to controlling people you know what we've got to do a got to do to get this virus under control. we spoke about the changes with the co-founder of messaging and social networking service side if it is small amounts of data it's being transmitted but 'd i think what's more important to focus on here is not the size or thing how to ringback transmit it but the potential for abuse that exists there and even if you trust your public health officials no system is on my biggest concern probably even more. to transparency when users opt into the service they know what they're on board nor in any potential privacy concerns i still have some issues where i'm not entirely sure this is something that's going to be beneficial essentially what this is doing is increasing the rate at which we can share information and misinformation could
5:22 am
potentially be included in that whether or not it's intentional and then the other point of it is how reliable are the tests that we're using to the game itself or to know that someone's tested positive but if there happens to be a high false positive test rate i'm not sure it's beneficial in the search and spread information around. the humanitarian disaster in yemen has had a brutal impact on the country's younger generation after 5 years of civil war many children have been forced to drop out of school and earn money just to feed their families the situation's only gotten worse during the pandemic and they groups are saying urgent help is needed. i think. this is a good thing i was forced to go to work because my father is sick his back hurts he
