to be. part of the american. live from moscow thanks for joining us today and. welcome to the program. germany's refusing to respond to moscow's requests for information on the alleged poisoning of. that's the claim at least made by russia's permanent representative to the international chemical weapons watchdog. in an interview to r.t. . the russian federation has been waiting for answers from our german colleagues the general prosecutor's office has sent 2 requests for legal assistance unfortunately we have not received any answers there were various explanations from the german side firstly there were references to national secrets the german said they were afraid of revealing secrets and german technologies during our

specialists acquaintance with the results of the analysis in a boon to swear laboratory. then our german colleagues started talking about the necessity of the prior approval of look sane of all these relatives after that they referred to in a volley himself all in all the germans have delayed the response in every possible way through deliberately delaying the process impeded the completion of the preliminary inquiry in russia that was held in order to ascertain whether there is an offense or not and then to start an extensive investigation into the case that dealt with the russian citizen on russian territory. it's like a vicious circle on the one hand german officials said that they were ready to refer the case to the o.p.c. w. and the case becomes a multilateral one on the other hand the o.p.c. w. claims that they will not share the information without the consent of the germans that is why we have taken some measures we've sent a letter to the germans permanent missions to the o.p.c. w. referring to article 9 paragraph 2 we requested the german side to provide us with

comprehensive information on a whole range of questions relating to involve these case we are talking about test results biological and clinical samples and everything connected with this case german colleagues are required to respond within 10 days the countdown has already started. involved he's now been discharged from the hospital and by land with medics saying a full recovery is possible while still not commenting on any long term conditions russia and germany meanwhile continue to trade accusations and demand all says over the case. it is not the responsibility of the german authorities to conduct of this to get the crime was committed in russia and that's why urgent a deal to russian side used to comment on the matter. with germany refusing to share samples or in a valley streetman details or later russian investigator talk to him there is no way the russian prosecutors can complete a preliminary proclaimers clearly berlin is in no hurry to share all this

information although they're demanding that russia take a media action get the impression the germans are still in free time in finding various pretext to avoid sharing their data with russia we believe this is all being done to support the idea being spread in the media that russia does not want to clarify in the valleys illness any such claims are a lie. a geo political analyst writer office believes some in the west are using that evolving case to further political goals. we look into what novacek really is a military nerve agent which is highly highly poisonous and dangerous. if it has been applied never any what has died within several minutes after being in contact with that substance so it's not really likely that novacek really was in the play but not in charge of course plays a great role in the narratives in the media narrative for me it's more important to

look at the geopolitical backgrounds of the anglo-saxon and the us american powers are in panic about the fact that the north stream to pipeline is about being finished quite soon so they need to give some pretext to the public to oppose the finishing of this major pipeline project because it would bring germany and russia closer together it was it would strengthen both countries' economical legia politically and therefore there are great great geopolitical and geo strategic economic interests to stop this pipeline project. with covert cases on the rise in france the government's tightening measures in the most affected parts of the country but it seems to contain the spread of the deadly virus of sparked outrage from local governors charlotte they would skew reports from power. well the health minister in france has outlined it new restrictions which sparked this war of words

on social media between himself and local officials what he announced on wednesday evening is that 2 departments in france we placed into a maximum alert so in that means that from saturday for 2 week period a limited period we're told there will be a closure of bars and restaurants people won't be able to go out to some public spaces and the 2 areas impacted are guadalupe and mar say now we know that restrictions have been divisive people have been unhappy about them in the past but nobody nobody could have predicted the futurists reaction by mark sayes own mare i was astonished and angry with the decision the city of massey did not consult anyone nothing related to the health situation can justify this announcement i do not accept the fact that we are the victims of political decisions that no one understands well other elected officials were equally as angry with the president of one of the local regions impacted describing this as being collective punishment

but the health minister hit back and said that he did consult with the local officials before making those announcements. the decisions announced this evening among them the measure for the people of must see are aimed precisely as protecting them well all the health indicators are very degraded not so says the regional president too says that a call from the health ministry in the moments before these restrictions were announced did not constitute a consultation and he has argued that these decisions were taken unilaterally by the french government now other restrictions have also been put in place for areas such as here in paris paris is now on an enhanced alert area which means that from monday next week bars will have to ship by 10 pm in the evening they'll be a restriction on gatherings no more than 10 people gathering together in public settings and we know that sort of large scale events like protests where they were

allowed to be around $5000.00 people that is now going to be limited to 1000 people and the local authorities have the right to impose stricter restrictions if they wish to do so this is because the health minister said that the situation across the current tree is deteriorating rapidly that if you distribute it is increasing sharply the infection rate is constantly rising we are at $95.00 cases bru 100000 inhabitants we must take additional measures it is necessary. france has been using a color coded map to show the roots of transmission of 1000 that's pretty much been a green yellow red traffic light type of system but now the red zones of been split into subcategories and if you look at that map now most of the country is in shades of red suggesting that there is a high rate of transmission of coded 19 let's not forget that france is carrying

out around a 1000000 tests every week so that rate is likely to go up but what's concerning the officials is the fact that in the last week there have been 3 days where more than 30. 2000 new cases have been registered and in addition to that hospital admissions have gone up by double to around 1000 and we know that hospitals in france are under a strain the health minister is urging people to abide by the restrictions so continue social distancing wear a mask wash our hands and knees even suggested that people should tail some of their social activities restricting that all in an effort to try and be the transmission of this virus but as we've seen 2 areas of france including last say already now in this maximum alert zone and other departments will be looking at the figures and wondering when they are going to slide potentially into that category and face their own mini restrictions and lockdowns for the future.

israel has announced a total lockdown from friday expect the last of the middle of next month for the country suffers a rise in infections with a daily record in the past 24 hours or about our correspondent in tel aviv fall asleep for more on this fall what more do we know about these latest new measures. well the new measures that are being imposed are women lists and are the lockdown that the country put in place back in march that was the 1st nationwide lockdown and what we're hearing now from prime minister benjamin netanyahu is that a full lockdown will be in place from tomorrow friday until october the 10th he has said that hopefully some of the measures will be eased even sooner now last week we did see the country go into a full lockdown it meant that schools restaurants hotels were completely shut but people were allowed our doors for exercise or for gathering for creative meetings or protests now all of that is being forbidden israel is the 1st country in the

developed world to be imposing a 2nd lockdown. the situation. it is difficult there is a steep rise we have to take decisions the decisions are tough but as prime minister i am obliged to save your lives and you need to understand that there is a danger to lives and that's why there is no choice but to take the difficult decisions and we will save lives with your co-operation. now there has been a recent surge in positive cases one day so i record high 7000 people being registered there has been a heated debate in the country's parliament between the prime minister don't want to go down and those who are managing the crisis who are against it they have warned against locking down the economy beyond a 50 percent mark which they say will be dressed disastrous for the country in the long term and at the same time this looming lockdown and mance to an admission of

failure by prime minister netanyahu it was only a few months ago when he boasted that he was the world's best prime minister at handling the crisis at that time is always one of the 1st countries to seal its borders and impose a lockdown but soon afterwards it was criticized for opening up its economy too soon and the virus returned we now have a situation that if we there were protests in front of the prime minister's residence in jerusalem with people calling on the prime minister to resign for both corruption charges and for what they say is his mishandling of the whole coronavirus pandemic. there live from tel aviv thanks for that latest update. our taxpayer funded care package turned to the pentagon for mosques and swabs the coburg was apparently fought a little bit of private defense contractors that's according to a new report for congress this year gave the defense department a $1000000000.00 to battle the coronavirus that money instead into ship building

maintenance all the dress uniform fabric as well as satellites drones and surveillance as well of the cash was supposed to address funding gaps in the country's coronavirus. spawn's with the u.s. suffering the world's worst pandemic rates and this comes amid serious anti coronavirus shortages in the country the center for disease control's warned that as much as $6000000000.00 additional dollars would be needed just to distribute backs in the next year and that's noted a severe lack of high specs facemask the pentagon officials have doubled down on the move though insisting that national defense comes 1st. we are saying for the congress provided or thirty's and resources that enable the executive branch to invest in domestic production of critical medical resources and protect key defense capabilities from the consequences of curve it we need to always remember that economic and national security a very tightly into related in our industrial base is really the nexus of the 2 we asked new yorkers what they made of the scandal and many more not surprised i don't

think given money why do you want. to work for your people want the priority of money in the government is the priority always has been the. citizens were revising these things being misled and finding out that funding is going to fortunately she's out are necessary and that won't benefit people and it's part of being an american. professor of preventative medicine william schaffner told us the spending scandal goes to the very top levels of power. obviously we would have preferred those monies go to cope with relief i would think that this decision to spend the money not on coated defense but. on forces was made at a very high level clearly the diversion of these follows from the public health

programs of the united states is very misguided i would think that the appropriate congressional committees would do an investigation to find out why this happened and to correct this if a $1000000000.00 was misused we had better look to the rest also to see how those monies were expended the distribution of the vaccine is going to be our next major effort here in the united states to stop or to 'd reduce and control so coated problems and all of those things will require funding it means that the congress of the united states has to hold the executive prange to account they have to be absolutely. very attentive to how these monies allocated for good purposes are being spent. still to come forward as attorney general wants a probe into billionaire democrat mike room by paying off the fines of state funds

so they can vote we'll tell you more off of the break. lead.

this is the war consumes american politics during this election cycle the. end of the curious. of the margins the only constant for them is in security economists debate individual recovery you know. is the reality. of the. 2 police officers up in shorts on an island hospital in louisville kentucky rest in the city protesters are angry after only one of 3 officers was charged in the fatal shooting of african american brianna taylor back in march a grown jury returned an indictment only against. wanton endangerment just as

the officers charged with murder riot police have been deployed in the area and brianna taylor a 26 year old black woman was fatally shot in march by louisville police officers they were serving a search warrant at our apartment to look for drugs fearing an intruder boyfriend opened fire while officers shot back taylor who was unarmed was killed we got opposing reaction from our guests. there's been a lot of talk in the news about the case with a lot of very wrong facts and today for the 1st time the right facts were explained by the attorney general of the state of kentucky in a legal setting making a legal grand jury finding the police were returning fire on a bad guy who fired at them 1st knowing they were police police do have the right to defend themselves in the course of trying to apprehend criminals who fire at them 1st they have the right it's even specifically laid out in state law in the

state of kentucky if they're fired during the course of their work they're entitled to fire back if only to defend themselves and that is what they were doing and in the course of that self-defense briana taylor was struck but it's definitely mr walker's fault not the police's fault that the gun got started and that it ended up going in her direction it is all going to come down on him one for smith who works for the ruling a sore endings you don't want to punish your own employees implement your agenda that's one number 2 my black reticences to have not always pointed it's all of their power and influence to control their communities to preserve their communities and to demand them to see both justice and say over the policing in their areas if they see got choice a lot of times people go on. the riviera and strengths

certain police to court people get paid money and they get money when they kill people like what used to happen told l.c. certainly so there's some charge there is a new young black attorney general that has done something they've given the huge pay out to be out of family i believe that the federal government should step in and really look into this. this is a lot more boring war and then what any of us know. with election day growing ever closer in the united states the battle of the votes is in full swing and now billionaire michael bloomberg is being accused of influencing outcome in florida a key state in the race for the white house and his actions or even drawn attention of the state's attorney general elam open explains. they are supposed to be about testing popularity candidates appeal to the public with their ads their speeches and their platform and then the public determines who they like the best it's

supposed to be democracy in action money is supposed to have nothing to do with it critics of the united states often point out that the reality is quite different rich people often have a way of asserting their agenda take the latest example of former new york city mayor mike bloomberg he's a billionaire and he's putting up $16000000.00 to help pay the court fees of black and brown voters in florida who happen to be convicted felons now the former new york city mayor says he is just being generous no political motivations here whatsoever the right to vote is fundamental to our democracy and no american should be denied that right working together with the florida rights restoration coalition we're determined to end disenfranchisement and the discrimination that has always driven it well it just so happens that the courts in florida have ruled that people with felony convictions are not allowed to vote until they have paid off their court fees and fines now until recently they were forbidden from voting for their

entire lives so it looks like a lot of black and latino florida residents who have felony convictions are going to get a nice check from mayor bloomberg to make sure that they're able to vote at the polls this november it just so happens that overwhelmingly black and latino people disapprove of donald trump and his presidency so republicans in florida say this pretty much amounts to bribery i will be calling on the florida attorney general to launch an investigation into mike bloomberg for potentially an gaging in bribery in vote buying in the state of florida bloomberg does not care for donald trump he has laid out cash in florida to maneuver against him before bloomberg recently spent $100000000.00 in the hopes of beating trump when it came to early voting in florida trump shot back at him with his usual style. i thought minimize was through the democrat politics of desponding almost $2000000000.00 and then giving the worst

a move in that debate performance in the history of presidential politics but the whole ended his political career on 1st ruston. save new york city no republican has taken the white house without florida since 1924 it's the biggest swing state in the electoral college margins there can be razor thin think about bush v gore back in 2000 in the 2000 election it came down to just a few 100 votes between the 2 candidates so giving the vote to 32000 convicted felons that could make all the difference it amounts to bribery basically bribing people to vote in a certain way and that is clearly against the law in the united states it's very hard to bring criminal charges against somebody as a fantastically wealthy as bloomberg because somebody like bloomberg will hire the best lawyers in the country to defend him and no government no federal government

those state government will want to bring charges against someone who's going to hire the best lawyers against any prosecution so it's unlikely that very much will come of this but i think there is a lot there to investigate i mean it's a it's a very dubious activity and you can imagine that if trump a done anything like this they would be huge scandal about. the positive kind of this restart off the prime minister justin trudeau controversially prorogue i mean scandals tying him to corruption and rising covert levels but as little quarter reports that has oceans against trudeau haven't disappeared. last month trudeau suspended parliament claiming ottawa needed a better long term strategy for call the damage control after all the country's coronavirus cases are nearly at 150002 those handling of the pandemic has been

widely criticized no more than ever comedians are looking for clarity and leadership but what they have gotten from the trudeau government is confusion and repeated delays so it's all about the coronavirus right nothing to do with a corruption scandal we have a prime minister and a cabinet that is golf engulfed in a massive corruption scandal for those currently under investigation for nearly $1000000000.00 contract with an organization called 'd we charity it was paying his family members huge speaking fees for years but the agreement was since cancelled after accusations that it amounted to a conflict of interest no wonder all the suspicions and suspending parliament also puts all current investigations on hold if so gross and disgusting that this prime minister keeps using the pandemic as an excuse for his corruption believe it or not trudeau promised never to suspend parliament after his predecessor used the same

mechanism called to weasel his way out of a vote of no confidence now the truth promises broken he had some explaining to do the probation we're doing right now is about gaining or testing the confidence of the house which is the opposite of what the conservatives did that we rightly railed against back in 2015 approval rates are tanking the opposition's on the offensive and the coronavirus continues to ravage the contrie these are tough times for both the canadian people and trudeau trans-pacific tensions flare at the united nations general assembly plus a look at the state of the boeing 737 much saga a lot more in boom bust that's when i am back in 30 minutes. chose seemed wrong. but old rules just don't hold. any you
