it's we have already commented on this and said we have nothing to hide. moscow again urges germany to share information on the alleged novacek poisoning of aleck's intervallic nato calls for an international probe. russia readies for phase 3 trials and its work towards a 1st coronavirus vaccine for a british medical journal concluded the drug name sputnik v. produced an antibody response in all participants so far. in china of a significant because its holdings of u.s. debt amid rising tensions between washington and beijing.

either it's midday here in moscow thanks for joining us on r.t. international. moscow is again urging berlin to exchange information about the alleged poisoning of russian opposition leader alexina valley adding it has nothing to hide. international pressure mounts on russia over the case the us president though says that he hasn't yet seen any proof of the poisoning claims. well i don't know exactly what happened i think it's it's tragic it's terrible and shouldn't happen we haven't had any proof yet but i will take a look there have been international calls for transparency from russia in an investigation into what happened to alexina valmy the russian foreign minister sergei a lover of has said moscow has nothing to hide when it comes to mist in the fall me he says russia is still waiting though for requests for information to be answered

. but it's we have already commented on this and said we have nothing to hide as soon as alex in a valley fell ill the plane was grounded and necessary measures rumi julie taken this soon as he was transported to germany those who were demanding information from russia went silent and did not demand anything from berlin this is all following the same old scenario we hear public accusations against russia and the fish all requests to berlin from a prosecutor's office have so far gone unanswered we were promised today that we would soon receive response as soon as we get the facts we will react accordingly this is all reminiscent of what happened with this cripples me it or secretary general again stoltenberg has his mind made up though he says international action it needs to be taken however he stopped short of saying what for that should take

we strongly believe that this is blatant violation of international law so it requires an international response. but i will not speculate about exactly what kind of international response we're seeing at the moment is warnings and demands flying backwards and forwards the french and german foreign ministers issued a joint statement on friday evening in which they call and then an attack against mr novelli we've also heard from the german federal. president fall to steinmeyer he said being a volley case has the potential to cause real problems in the relationship between pearl in moscow and in vienna we've seen moscow's representative summoned to the foreign ministry to discuss the novelli case i consider the demands russia conducts a quick open and comprehensive investigation in appropriate in the absence of any information facts or specific data from germany or any response to the russian

prosecutor general's request made on the 27th of august it's over a week since moscow requested information from berlin regarding the tests that were carried out on alexina volley on friday the german government confirmed that they had received that request however getting that information over to russia might not be as simple as all out. there right there a quest was forwarded by the minister of justice to the justice department in berlin today in the morning as usual we can't comment on any cooperation regards an internal matters of the investigation so what does that mean russia has not received anything from the ministry of justice or any other responsible oath already as they have already just sad the federal government has approved their quest for mutual legal assistance. speaking in plain language no other information has been given is that right. i retreat what i have just said moscow has requested

this information because the tests that were carried out in the russian hospital where lex in the valley was 1st treated showed no trace of any toxin in his system and tests for poisons all came back negative effect 2 investigative measures are being carried out and if the information about the presence of a poisonous substance in the patients biological samples is confirmed then of course we will open a day jury investigation it's 2 weeks since alexei navalny has been here in berlin being treated the shot a tape hospital physicians say there is no way a cute risk to his life at the moment however there is the potential for long term effects from this illness we heard from foreign affairs columnist meredith just ski who says that no one stands to gain from the alleged poisoning though it does reinforce a negative image of the kremlin. to jump to the conclusion that there is one obvious arts' to what happened to divine it it's very simplistic because if you

look at the the balance of advantage say you know who takes an advantage out of what's happened i think it's a huge liability for the kremlin and for russia to be seen to have launched an attack on one of the most colorful and interim interim members of the opposition that it reinforces as we've seen a very negative image of russia in the west i think the relations between the west and specifically europe and russia word starting to warm up after the the freeze over ukraine after 2014. we've seen i would say a slightly different approach to diplomacy from russia over the last few months now

all those things are certainly at risk because of what's happened and because of the way it's interpreted which is why i think maybe it's much more complicated why would the kremlin do this at this point it's only become an international issue because you never knew was airlifted out to germany and the german doctors made the findings that they did. notice said well it's an international issue because whenever you were such an important figure that this was an attack with a chemical weapon and therefore it's subject to international conventions i'm not sure that nato is mandated to run or mandate of anybody really outside russia runs to saying what should happen inside russia. russia is readying for phase 3 of. clinical trials of its covert 900 vaccine and international medical journal says that the drug produced an antibody response in

all the participants of early testing and that there were no major side effects on these around culture has more on russia's bid to be coronavirus. back in the 11th of august russia became the 1st country to register a vaccine against 19 now more data became available just last friday that show that sputnik the vaccine pretty successfully produced antibodies in all 76 participants in early stage trials now other trials discovered that all patients not only developed antibodies but also non all of the participants showed any side effects whatsoever now a study was also published in the lancet which is one of the most respected medical journals in the world and a russian direct investment fund c.e.o. says that that study answers many questions that have a listen because it isn't out of the clinical trial results of the sputnik the vaccine published in lancet the world's leading medical journal shoes to russia is

leading the way in developing a gruen a virus vaccine and it answers a lot of questions from western critics specifically the journal report concluded that there were no serious adverse consequences among volunteers to to develop the scene and there was a very strong in time in response due to the development of antibodies it found that a vaccinated person produces 1.5 times more n.t. body stay in an average person infected with karuna virus the head of moscow's censor that's the center who developed the vaccine says that the antibodies that will remain in the patient for a period of years now some of russia's top officials have already been inoculated with this the vaccine people like moscow mayor sergey severely like defense minister sergei short go and even the let him of putin's own daughter was inoculated as well but that happened much earlier now when speaking to let amir putin moscow mayor said that the only side effect that he experienced was to our

headache and he is flying in now now this is of course all in contrast very much in contrast with the concerns that. were voiced earlier that russia is really whoring there is creation of this vaccine in order to be the 1st in the world in the fight against coal with 19 well the way things are now according to the health ministry a rush is ready for max vaccination as soon as november or december and so far 3 clinics in moscow have received the vaccine for 3rd stage trials and they're now ready to welcome of volunteers now once the united nation the process begins here at home russia will be ready to send the vaccine abroad as well so far many foreign governments have already expressed interest in the sputnik the vaccine and according to officials there are now over when c. requests for hundreds of millions of doses left to the peer reviewed study was

published the u.s. secretary of state expressed skepticism among pompei accused russia and china of hurrying the vaccines to market for political reasons we discussed the russian vaccine and the findings in the lancet journal with lawrence young who's a professor of molecular on quality in the u.k. . i think it's a very important step on the way to developing an effective vaccine it's a very interesting study like many vaccine studies it's still relatively early days but it does demonstrate that the vaccine is safe and it doesn't use a very good immune response this study published in the launch it highlights some very important developments particularly in the ability to what we call crime boosts the response to give 2 doses of slightly different vaccines that give you an even better response and that is something that this article reports on which i think is a very important development but again we have to be slightly cautious because it's relatively small numbers and we look forward obviously to seeing more data

particularly as this vaccine goes into phase 3 or understand there are going to be something like $40000.00 volunteers vaccinated but we're working together as an international group of immunologist symbologist to fight this vaccine and this is a very important step in that fight. china will seek to rid itself of a significant amount of the u.s. debt that is don't that's according to an expert quoted in the state bank global times out that comes amid high tensions between beijing and washington china will gradually decrease its holdings of u.s. debt to about $800000000000.00 under normal circumstances but of course china might sell all of its u.s. bonds in an extreme case like a military conflict with china owns more than a trillion dollars of u.s.

debt only japan has more of beijing's already been off loading its share dumping over a $100000000000.00 worth in 2020 alone u.s. issued debt is forecast to almost think all american g.d.p. this year and exceed it next it's levels of debt haven't been seen since the end of the 2nd world war and are widely regarded as risky. relations finch on the u.s. have declined markedly after the terms of ministration initiated a trade war washington also telling the chinese tech for claiming it posed a security threat something beijing of course denies who are also to attack crackdowns on chinese and american media organizations as well as consulate closures we spoke to financial commentator jim bell just he says that those dominance could be on the way. but my expectations are that when in the turmoil the dollar will go higher it will get overpriced it might even turn into a bubble because there are very few alternatives but that will probably be the last shot us is now the largest debtor nation in the history of the world and it's

getting higher and higher every day i'm not the only person who knows that and other people will get worried traditionally the us dollar has been a sound as currency in the world where tradition changes once upon a time it was the british pound once upon a time it was the danish crime in the dutch killed or hurt sea change history changes and i'm an american so i don't particularly like saying it but i'm afraid the us dollar is coming to its century or so of dominance and something else will replace an. american athletes could be banned from any just sporting events if the us stops financing the world anti-doping agency bringing more on that story after the break.

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race. spearing dramatic developments only. exists i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical. to sit

down and talk. to. the public more is brewing in the world of sports as the world anti-doping agency is a warning shot at the united states says that it could ban america's top athletes from maine just sporting events if washington follows through on its threat to stop funding wada get more pronounced the story. the trouble ministration has a longstanding pattern of taking moves against international organizations such as the international criminal court the world health organization or the un human rights council but it appears that one international organization the world anti-doping agency is capable of retaliating if the united states takes measures against it we have been approached by a number of governments of the world that were shocked with the threats from the us government these governments want us to consider an amendment to the compliance

standard meaning that nonpayment by a government of his wider contribution could lead to directly to being declared non compliant with the world anti doping code inevitably this could have serious repercussions for athletes including their participation in major international sporting events this comes after the june white house drug control policy report which indicates that the united states has taken measures against wada working to defund the organization for years the united states has provided the world and adoption agency within the last of taxpayers' dollars in annual dues far more than any other nation in the world we do so with an expectation that father will operate in a transparent accountable and independent manner that is above all else fair to athletes they deserve a fair shake and the vote the commitment to govern team competition on level playing field although these threats were not made publicly we've already heard the u.s. olympic committee as well as the u.s.

anti-doping agency speak up against any proposal. threatening u.s. athletes i mean this is one of the most terrible things i've ever seen from wada apparently nonpayment is a serious a systemic doping which is the rule that says this and is it applied to everyone to threaten one country's athletes over what has failed governance model is pretty remarkable and disappointing what is very threatened and rattled but to illegally threaten u.s. athletes is shameful the u.s. anti-doping agency says these proposals are simply illegal the united states cannot be excluded as an the only country to be locked out simply because of this move to defund sort of peers that the policy of the white house on which they defund international organizations that don't suit the united states will continue when it appears at this moment retaliation will not be taking place if you want to be a member of this force called for

a cheery you have to pay to take part he had to swallow it and say this i wanted to get out about us on the planet you know give it to me for free it doesn't happen like. they do have money and wanting to say to us that you don't get is that they are they're being caught at it they're seen as kind of you know in significant and u.s. forces because remember he's going to do not test the n.f.l. the n.h.l. the n.o.b. or n.b.a. or even the colors force over the pointy n.a.i.a. i d. and c. to relate so this is a very serious matter and you know what it is if the opening shots being fired didn't expose of course the u.s. anti doping they have been caught so badly and how to really let himself down by refusing to test athletes during lockdown and right after lockdown we saw these amazing already or even broken and national records and personal best in broken by athletes who try this tiger said we're not training during so maybe dresses don't

do well but this is just the opening volley in a very very nasty war. a university in the united states is launched an investigation after an academic publicly admitted to spending your entire career pretending to be black when she is in fact white jessica kruger an associate professor of history george washington university made her confession in a blog post and it has caused a stir. i heard this chewed my lived experience as a wide jews child in suburban kansas city under various assumed identity is within the blackness that i had no right to claim i'm not a cultural vulture i am a cultural each so this is bizarre my heart goes out turning black person who invited just occurred into their secrets piece entered the assumption that she was black to you we have to talk about this jessica kruger where jewish woman from kansas city has been passing as a black latina caribbean woman for years this is violence this is anti black and

this is shameful when jessica crew gets her book deal and it's on the talk show circuit remember this too it white women continually harm our communities and are rewarded for the efforts. of the cases on comparisons with rachel dolls are former us black rights activist who was outed as being white by her parents and even top politicians have been called stretching the truth when it comes to their ethnicity last year senator elizabeth warren apologized for identifying herself as part of american legal and media analyst lionel gave us his take on the story there is a benefit. for people to have. certain demographic characteristics for academic reasons sometimes for loans sometimes for mortgages i think we are to willimon eat any distinction any reference any mention of gender or sex or sexual inclination

on applications so that when i get your application i don't know who it is all i know is i see your numbers i see your scores as a your grades take this person if you want to eliminate racial discrimination or stop considering it at all and when you start playing around with. characteristics of it this is the demographic although it gets to the point where that becomes important factor and not the qualifications of the people and that's the danger. this weekend will see the 100 consecutive rally in the us city of portland over the killing of george freud the latest protest on friday meanwhile saw more scenes of unrest protesters marched on the local police association building of those used tear gas to disperse the crowd and made several arrests the rallies that began in may are pretty quickly marred by vandalism and violence.
