the headlines this 18th of september russia has left exasperated after germany direct small scope of the chemical weapons watchdog in its hunt for evidence from the election of only poison only to be rebuffed by the o.p.c. w 2. a but you sort of use that we turn to the o b c w which unfortunately was playing for time and then told us we need to go back to berlin can you believe that. bridge 1st charity oxfam says that a small group of wealthy nations are going to hold of a half the potential supplies of coburg 19 vaccines but the vast majority of the rest of the world's population denied access to years to come. but israel will see the jewish new year with a new and deeply unpopular law later today starting in

a few hours as covert in fact choose the spiral doubling in under a week. hello just to midday here so friday afternoon in moscow good afternoon for me kevin though in life for marty's world news center i'm here with the at random for the next 30 minutes for you starting this russia furious at the way it's being treated by germany and the global chemical weapons watchdog over the novelli case after 2 requests for evidence for a north. it was told to appeal to the o.p.c. w. which in turn redirected moscow back to the germans well bred to sort of use that we turned to the o p c w which unfortunately was playing for time and then told us we need to go back to berlin you can you believe that when we were 1st appealing to believe in it direct our communications to do. c.w.

this is a vicious circle it is illogical absent and everyone understands it. rusher insists that it stopped no traces of novacek or any other poison when the legs in the volley was in their care and it stressed its willingness to cooperate in order to establish what really happened to him meantime france and sweden have conducted their own tests and confirmed berlin's nerve agent a publicist he goes down off delves deeper into the controversy surrounding the alleged poison plot alexina volley is recovering whatever it was killing his body is on retreat and the politician seems to be almost out of these woods so concerns over his health make room for concerns over what exactly happened and europe is demanding that russia aids the investigation installations which only the russian government can and must answer we continue calling us here to investigate this our demand is that russia urgently explain what happened well russia has already

contributed by not letting alexina volleyed die in the 1st crucial hours after the politician fell sick russia contributed by opening its airspace to a team of german doctors letting them visit russia contributed by eventually putting him on a german rescue plane allowing the value to be airlifted to berlin and by offering its medical data to german colleagues so now russia says the ball is in germany's court moscow current aid the investigation if it's kept in the dark on emerging evidence should the press with enough when it all all this is saying place against the backdrop of facts that our proposals to berlin to jointly sort out what happened and being dismissed and the far fetched pretexts that's hurdles are brought into the race because berlin starts playing a game of all take and no give russia can get the results of the. expertise

made in german labs since it will reveal too much of the german army's capabilities too much but only to russia's eyes apparently because berlin had no problem with sharing its data with almost 200 other nations member states of the or b c w we are very negatively the fact that germany refusing to assist the russian law enforcement agencies secretly transferred no boundaries test data to its trusted partners it is clear that this was done with a political purpose so that france and sweden would automatically confirm berlin's unfounded accusations against russia but wait russia is a member state of the o.p.c. w. and that means it finally has all the time in the world to scrupulously study everything the germany could find right or wrong the only thing that it actually means is that russia can hop on the merry go round of rejections because berlin tells moscow it can get everything from the o.p.c.

w and the o p c w saying the exact opposite bumping russia right back to berlin russia is in a loop which doesn't really help o.p.c. w.'s reputation with moscow as russia had previously accused the un bad watchdog of becoming politicized bureaucracy don't you like so many international commands ations it's always great to be subject to political pressure and that's critically from of course those the fund it largely funded much largely the western powers we've seen with the p.c. to abuse role in interest to go to alleged chemical attacks in syria but its investigations have tended to ascribe blame has been riddled with inconsistences and problems that will not rise in independent investigation but that there appears to be scope for political interference and pressure to take close we saw a similar situation in respect to. the housework was great and it was very

reluctant to share its information with russian or specter what do you have to discover in terms. of malice and some are giving no access to evidence keeping waters murky playing every bureaucratic trick in the book this is how the e.u. is shutting out russia's investigators also raising the sanctions guillotine over the country almost like a ponce and no investigation from russia but an immigration admission of guilt. alexina volleys now posted a video on instagram showing his team rummaging through that hotel room in times square he was short before he fell ill wearing surgical gloves they collected evidence in plastic bags and according to the post passed it on to the germans apparently one of the water bottles they submitted was found to contain traces of novacek however a co-creator of the nerve agent the in a drink says there's no way the vani would even go as far as boarding the plane had

he ingested some of the stuff in the hotel. val need wouldn't have been able to leave the hotel that's if it was not a joke and he really touched it or drank something 1st of all even in small and not very toxic doses provokes pupil contraction in such a way a person would be almost blind so could barely move so even with only very mild exposure he wouldn't have been able to get on a plane there are photos of him in the hotel in the plane in the russian hospital and yet we can't see any of the symptoms poisoning and novacek and not worse to use for this case. richard that's right they definitely would get something they had just simple surgical gloves and that's it and also imagine a bottle that has traces of the substance on the outside it would be a very smart person who would try to fill a bottle with such

a dangerous liquid and spill it all down the science creating a dangerous situation for everyone. a small group of wealthy nations has already secured over half of the envisioned future supply of covert 19 vaccines according to a report by the oxfam charity it means only 13 percent of the world's population will initially have access to that sought after drug laws in the head of oxfam's inequality policy division then says this is a consequence of pharmaceutical companies seeking to maximize profits. it's extremely dangerous for the world because rich nations are monopolizing the supply of a potential. but more importantly they're doing deals with big pharmaceutical corporations which are defending their intellectual property and their profits meaning that the supply of taxes being artificially limited. a lot from says there won't be enough to go around to be global demand the 5

leading vaccine can that is for which nations across the world seal the deal currently undergoing the final stages of clinical trials however even if all 5 true prove to be a success which according to the charity's extremely unlikely around 2 thirds of the world's population will still have to wait until at least 2022 and on top of the potential drug shortages oxfam says the vaccine deals lay bare than the inequality between prosperous and developing countries case in point this coming up for example the u.k. has managed to secure up to 5 doses per person depending on how the trials go well for bangladesh in stark contrast the figure is only one dose but 9 people max lawson again says that prolonged and availability of the vaccine in some countries is going to mean unnecessary deaths companies like their own are in the us are only selling their backs into very rich countries they're selling it at

a very high price somewhere between $16.00 and $35.00 a dose and you have to have 2 doses like $70.00 per person so they are buried clear that they are there doing things to make a profit and they want to make money from this vaccine what we're saying is we need a people's backs not a profit need to see. the breaking down of the patent barrier and we need to see open sharing your banks in technology to lose. axa more since applause and effective vaccines all over the world as soon as possible the huge economic and human cost of. a little ability if you go countries like india or south africa of brazil if these countries are not getting access to say. 2022. they would have more luck to their economies would be huge trouble

many many people who. do not need to because the vaccine has been artificially russian and for the profits of pharmaceutical corporations. a more covert use israel said to enter a 2nd national law later friday just a couple of hours from now for at least 4 e weeks the anti covert measure comes into force just hours before the start at sunset of the jewish new year that's made the decision deeply unpopular then with the already weary public hundreds rallied against the new law in central tel aviv on thursday night. claiming code would have been blown out of all proportion i said so with the clock counting on the new look. in our studio for now at least you can still get in television. israel is bracing for an unprecedented 2nd nationwide coverage 19 lock down that will see the next 3 weeks with strict

restrictions being imposed now this is a particularly joyous time usually of the year you have the jewish new year wash and on friday night you then have gone to poor which is the most holy day on the jewish calendar and usually thousands upon thousands of people will be in synagogue this time that won't happen so a lot of disappointment here amongst the population among the other measures being implemented are no more than 10 people indoors remaining within 500 meters of one's home. businesses cannot accept customers and schools and shopping centers are to be closed this follows a steady rise in the number of covered positive cases waynes days to one on president and 6000 new cases being reported in one day the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu says that these moves on this area and follow an in-depth conversation that he hold with the country's health minister. in the last 2 days we

have witnessed another lawman increase in deaths and the continued increase in the number of critically ill patients as many of the experts have recommended we may have no choice but to tighten the guidelines now there has been a mixed reaction to the new lockdown on thursday night protesters gathered here in tel aviv to demonstrate against the new measures we caught up with ordinary citizens to ask them what they feel it's very frustrating it's killing the economy many people feel like there is no hope and they don't know what is going on we're basically going crazy we can't work we can't go out we can't do whatever we used to do it's probably a good thing because cases are rising that the roof so that's what we're going to do but i don't think it's going to help i expect that instructions will go down but they'll go right back up as soon as the closure hangs honestly it doesn't affect me at all i don't understand why it's much of a closure i understand schools some of the stores are closed but where i live 500

meters i go anywhere i want i do anything i want people i still say don't wear masks so i really don't understand how this is going to help anything now israel is not the 1st country that during the 1st wave witnessed a decline and is not experiencing a spike in cases the u.k. and france are in similar situations and so we can cautiously save no country is from the said. wait that's. going to place at 2 o'clock local time this afternoon and people are from the streets right now last minute shopping a lot of activity a head of the curfew it's also questionable will make a and i'll be able to report from the studio as this comes into place this is the international live from moscow for the 18th of september coming up latching on to the black movement of clocking up huge astronomical costs for us i'm sure as

with. claims running into the billions about it. very mechanisms of plasticity that enable stretch to get under the skin and to have any negative effect on our mind in our body those same mechanisms can be harnessed for the good to promote resilience to promote flourishing.

again russia says it won't extradite to poland 3 air traffic controllers who are working on the day of the then polish president's fatal plane crash in 2010 a kremlin spokes person said the move would not be permitted under russian law it comes after an investigative group from the polish prosecutor general's office applied to get a court motion to have the russian citizens temporarily arrested the charges

against the air traffic controllers concerned a deliberate provocation of a plane crash resulting in the deaths of many people the tragedy happened in april 2010 in western russia where the polish president was heading for an official visit the plane crashed while trying to land amid forgan generally poor weather conditions all those on board including the president's wife and other senior polish officials and citizens were killed separate investigations at the time by both russia and poland came to similar conclusions that the actions of the pilots ultimately led to the crash however later warsaw's said serious mistakes were made by air traffic controllers to in fact then in 2017 polish prosecutors accuse those russian air traffic controllers of deliberately causing the crash and the 2nd polish commission claimed there was an explosion on board before the plane hit the ground director of the crisis research institute mark allman believes politics still plays a central role in this long running and hugely controversial case. this is

a highly politicized event and of course the polish prosecution for political appointees so most are so this is a kind of scientific show hooves to hold i think all the evidence sadly tragically is that it was an accident and accident will be very high profile figures from the president of poland down to form solidarity activists and that made it a highly emotional and disastrous development but it and it's also been a poisonous development inside polish politics because of course the present government accuses its predecessor of covering up the alleged russian plot it's highly unlikely that pardons to to skin so and his colleagues were serving the interests of russia they were quite quite critical of president putin's policies many errors but it's a sign of how this issue and this attitude towards russia has become an internal battle in poland as much as a geopolitical battle between borstal and moscow. u.s.

presidential hopeful joe biden has warned the u.k. there won't be any post break said trade deal with america if london fails to uphold its end of the good friday agreement which was a cornerstone to peace in northern ireland biden's our way or the highway approach that has drawn comparisons to the way that arch rival donald trump has so far and all foreign business deals caleb maupin picks up the story aside from being old white and male that's where the similarities between the 2 presidential hopefuls are meant to and after all trump brams biden as a trojan horse for far left extremism meanwhile biden presents trump as an authoritarian demagogue like knight is today like cold is to hot absolute polar opposites but are they because on one particular issue joe biden is singing the same tune as donald trump he's announced that he is now

a supporter of economic protectionism. we can't allow the good friday agreement that brought peace to northern island to become a casualty of bragg's it and he trade deal between the u.s. and u.k. must be contingent upon respect for the agreement and preventing the return of a hard border period it's usually trump who is threatening to tear up trade deals and renegotiate then america's interests remember we will never ever. trade deals russia didn't adhere to the treaty so until they are here we will pull out well i think the trans-pacific partnership was not a good deal for us and if they made it a good deal for us i'd go and i will not accept a bad deal for the american people let's not forget that biden used to criticize donald trump for this kind of thing but that is ancient history now joe biden is tooting the horn of economic nationalism he is going to punish corporations that operate overseas with have your taxes the same for corporations that push their

products primarily on foreign buyers and he's now got his buy american plan that he's drawn up to reward companies for operating only in the united states however some are just not buying it the president of the german foreign trade association says that biden's record indicates that he is far far less anti globalist than trump protectionism will be less on the president biden than on the donald trump even the democrats are not great friends of liberal trade it may be a 2 horse race but when it comes to the issue of trade both jockeys are riding with the same ideas perhaps packaged though with different words they're appealing to voters what they think voters are rather been looking at free trade and open trade of the of the potential for expanding business than and differing the sectors basically looking at protection of measures which i think. is not good for long

term perspective i'm not sure if there's if there's big differences. maybe one day the wideout me open. and they'll state mr trump cybil state clearly what they're that they're against certain agreement and yet we've got threats coming from the other side as well mr biden and the democratic party the house speaker statement. well i would i would almost categorize the threats towards the u.k. government the threats that are being made on both sides and expect. more recently from mr biden camp definitely is alienating a global international corporations as well as small corporations that are attempting to have an international problem. and so you know i think we should be promoting international relationships and promoting our corporations both small medium and large to expand operations over to the tent to develop partnerships

international. see in this city vandalism is come in the wake of the blight lives much of protests will talk about next to putting big dents not just in police cars from stole from sport also huge tents and use and show wrist pockets they have received damage claims so far with billions.

certainly the. money that that needs to be spent the businesses that have been completely destroyed small businesses black american businesses minority businesses also all businesses of all american citizens together people's lives have been completely destroyed not only by the shutdowns from coal that which again federal judges are ruling were unconstitutional shutdowns of the economy shutdowns of people's lives but now inciting violence and protest this is not about george floyd this is not about his his death or what has happened there this has now morphed into something that is far bigger it's all coming up on the 2020 alexion only as violence being carried out against law enforcement against police officers violence carried out against businesses destruction of property loss of lives which the media in america is completely ignoring. from check out our social media or r.t. dot com forget a moment today for the other reporting from moscow i'm kevin 0 in for a the. day goes well.

a new gold rush is underway in ghana thousands of ill equipped workers are flocking to the gold fields hoping to strike it rich here is a good day our. children are torn between gold and education from me was very poor i thought i was doing my best to get back to school which side will have the strongest appeal. we are segregated only by social class. because people don't know someone in poverty they 1st. if you're born into a poor family you're born into a minority family if you're born into a family that only has a single parent that really constrains your life chances people die on average 15 years younger than if you're born into generational poverty. so by every

day you meet your needs and the needs of your family. this is who lost the one business show you can't afford to miss washington coming up in the fight protect talk continues in china claims it will need to have a say in the oracle deal straight ahead we dive into the ongoing fight for the world's hottest social media ad and another week another round of u.s. jobless claims amid the covert 19 pandemic later on we break down these numbers and

the state of u.s. markets with a packed show today so let's dive right in. and it's a strange concept to think about but within the next 24 to 36 hours president donald trump will rule on whether social media company tick tock will be allowed to continue operating here in the united states in a move that is on president president trump will decide whether or not to allow to deal with oracle to move forward details of the agreement would give oracle a 20 percent ownership stake in tic-tac and we're now learning would give wal-mart's c.e.o. ways seat on tick tocks board now the deal would mean that chinese company by dance will continue to own the majority stake in tic-tac something president trump says he does not like. we're looking into that from the standpoint of byte dance we don't like that i've been just conceptually i can tell you i don't like that. that has not been told to me yet that has been reported but it hasn't been told to me it could be very accurate reporting for a change so if that's the case i'm not going to be happy with. only this is china

which i think it probably is the chinese foreign ministry also responding to the latest reports thursday continuing to label the situation as unfair. so we urge the u.s. to respect the principles of market economy and fair competition abide by international economic and trade rules stop politicising normal economic and trade cooperation and provide an open fair and nondiscriminatory business environment for foreign companies in the u.s. . joining us now to discuss our boom bust co-host christine. thank you both for being here as always christine so at this point by dan says it has to be able to comply with both the chinese government and the u.s. government are they going to be able to thread that needle. it's going to be difficult because by get this feeling the same way i did last year now that they're the ones in the spotlight so they have to very carefully balance the demands of the

u.s. with those of china while also not neglecting the expectations of the public users to because already by dan has faced a wave ringback of criticism from chinese citizens for seemingly to giving in to u.s. pressure after it was reported it was just contemplating a sale so that's led to hundreds of meeting uploads you don't need the chinese version of tech talk and also influence and announcing that they would stop using the platform if it got sold to u.s. company so it's trying the best it can to appease the 2 countries and that will require now double sign as an order to go through so that's an extra layer of uncertainty and we've been talking here as if the biggest hurdle to get this deal done what the trumpet mr asian and perhaps it is but chinese regulators are being lax about this either because they have now made it quite clear that tick tocks underly algo is not to be sold under any circumstances and that they would rather prefer that u.s. operations a tick tock to be shutdown rather than to see it sold to an american mire now there's a new development in this whole deal which we mentioned there at the earlier in the show wal-mart which had originally.
