9:03 am
arrested this close to here apparently 1 had blood on the person's 2 people injured we understand very seriously in this attack in the heart of paris once again it comes just weeks of sholay after the satirical magazine which was attacked back in 2015 we published controversial cartoons which angered many people in the muslim world those qualities of the muslim prophet mohammed and many people criticized. once again we publishing that tomorrow start over the terror trial a trial north of the people carried out that attack but over individuals who were he just over assisting with that attack so perhaps. putting the terrorists in their homes or financially supporting them so we have to say that this was about defending freedom of speech and it wanted to show that it wasn't scared that following the republic ation magazine once again received fresh death threats.
9:04 am
charlie hebdo is once again threatened by a terrorist organization threats that constitute a real problem in the midst of the trial of the january 25th you know tax. i had 10 minutes to gather my things and leave my home 10 minutes to leave behind a part of my life that's a bit sure it's very brutal. well it's not clear whether these 2 incidents connected death but we do know that this is being treated very seriously indeed because of that investigation that's been opened by the national terrorism agency you might be able to see around here the area is all cordoned off and there is a security operation will see including those military from operation sorted out this was the french military operation that was launched back in 2015 when france started experiencing those large waves of terror attacks but the moment where it
9:05 am
stands 2 people have been arrested in connection with this latest terror attack in paris and see people have being injured seriously injured we're waiting to get updates on what they can dish it is. ok thank you oh charlotte charlotte and there reporting for us in paris. so in other news vladimir putin has proposed a package of measures to normalize relations washington in terms of cyber security it does come less than 3 months before the u.s. presidential election follows years of repeated claims by washington that the kremlin did try to manipulate and undermine the american electoral system. because of i'm sort of doing this that that's what we as the u.s. to stop professional expert dialogue on international information security without holding it hostage to our political differences the measure is aimed at increasing the level of credibility between our countries making our nation secure and
9:06 am
prosperous we suggest all countries including the u.s. strike a global agreement and making a commitment to not strike 1st when using information and communications technology against each other just. like hey let's get more information on the story we've been courting joins us good afternoon don just how significant then could this proposal be a good afternoon and the well as we just heard from the russian foreign minister the tone of president putin's friday declaration was definitely one of cooperation it stressed the need for the u.s. and russia to cooperate specifically in the field of information and communications technology because this is an especially important theme actually since washington has actually been accusing russia of election meddling for years now. the intelligence community's consensus is that russia continues to try to
9:07 am
influence our elections certainly have seen very active very active efforts by the russians to influence our election in 2020 through what i would call more of the malign foreign influence side of things social media use of of proxies state media online journals. now putin's plan outlined a concrete strategy to reboot u.s. russia relations in this field the 1st being to establish a regular dialogue between the 2 powers concerning their mutual interest in cyber security it also called for a stable communications channel that both leaders can use to lower the risk of a possible nuclear proliferation and also aid rapid response teams. in dealing with incidents concerning the information security of both countries now putin also called for both countries to sign a deal that would guarantee mutual non interference in both countries affairs and
9:08 am
also preventing future digital incidents but this was always russia's stance actually as we also heard from the russian foreign minister. 2 words if you support is when the influence of information and communications technology holds a special place in the u.s. relationship unfortunately as a precipitating factor in recent years we keep hearing groundless claims of conducting cyber attacks aimed at undermining the us electoral process and the political system as a whole and as we've repeatedly said there's no basis for such statements we have professional and constructive discussion of old programs and accusations at the negotiating table so this declaration could really be a hand of friendship reaching out to the united states so we'll have to see how washington will react to this positively or negatively in the future. ok thank you don't don't quarter that reporting. now france assess
9:09 am
a new daily coded record of more than 16000 cases registered in the past 24 hours on wednesday the french government announced new measures to contain the spread of the virus health authorities have set up graded danger levels to cover alerts reinforced alert and also maximum alert so areas with more than $150.00 cases per 100000 people are shown here in red while the worst hit areas with more than $250.00 cases per 100000 marked dark red and do face the most strict measures however businesses a few me. have taken to the streets in paris warn they simply won't survive these latest closures bars and restaurants are already been ordered to shut in marsay while in red zones like paris opening hours from next week have been restricted to 10 pm and discontent inspiring. the now this number if we can travel on the metro close to
9:10 am
each other masked how is it that we cannot be in a bar or restaurant respecting the instructions and rules imposed have to log to our own rules to devise majority respect security support of the people of moore so bring them all my friendship and solidarity it can happen to paris in a few days time and if they ask us to close we will no longer be able to return today we say let us work we want to be able to work we know how to work and we know what precautions to take. there are health rules to apply we apply them but on the other hand the government is bludgeoning us they are hitting us with this but you should know that they can hit even harder so today we are here calmly but it can quickly escalate. we spoke to a french dr mark the last about this and he does they that without such measures the situation could actually turn out to be even more disastrous. densely
9:11 am
populated places in big cities especially in bars and restaurants people can forget that they need to take precautions if you go to a bar or restaurant was such a high transmission risk you could then infect your family members with the virus so far we do not have a vaccine and the recommended measures are temporary as the minister said they will be revised in 2 weeks if we do nothing it will lead us to a public health emergency when i hear what some politicians have to say i think we need to ask people who have been in intensive care they really know what we are talking about. meanwhile britain could soon become the 1st country to deliberately expose volunteers to the coronavirus as vaccine trials continue the financial times science project insiders claim it could begin in january at a quarantine facility in london volunteers will reportedly receive a vaccine and then a dose of the actual virus
9:12 am
a month later but concerns have been raised about the morality of the move. volunteers or not how can this be ethical when corona virus infection can be fatal wonder what we would be saying about this if it was russia not u.k. project risky reckless irresponsible typical of russia how risky as a human challenge trials well there's been no official confirmation of the report a low the british government has said it is open to such studies microbiologist simon clarke from reading university believes the move may not be ideal but these are desperate times. so unusual of course if we had effective treatments the rush for a back seat would me wouldn't be so be so strong it's not all to morrow an optimal way of doing it ideally you'd let people get the. virus normally but needs must limit it will drive with our backs are against the wall on
9:13 am
this and we've really got to be able to come up with a vaccine in pretty short order so i think some people think this is a way of doing it you know it's a sub optimal way of doing trials no 2 ways about it the fact is the hospitals in this country in the spring were gone by lots and lots of people who were seriously ill many of whom were literally unable to breathe and needed the attention of intensive care that meant. that so the hospitals were unable to discharge their normal caseload stuff and that was the basic problem. neema moscow has caught on people in high risk groups in particular to only go out if essential softer spiking cases with more details is the roman cost of it well indeed the number of cases has been the growing in russia recently over the last couple of weeks in fact now russian consumer watchdog or wall there is saying that it's not the 2nd wave of
9:14 am
coal that they're actually calling it calling it the continuation of the 1st wave meanwhile russian health ministry officials said that the number of serious call the cases remains at the same level at this point now authorities claim that everything is being done in order to avoid a massive shutdown so they have issued the following recommendations let's take a look so retired people and those with chronic illnesses should try and stay home as much as possible and if they do need to go outside just like everyone else they need to wear protective gear like me. masks and gloves now everyone should also limit their visits to shops and pharmacies as well as visits to close relatives and loved ones in in case they live separately also some large scale employers here in moscow have been advised to send as many people as possible so work remotely or even have them take
9:15 am
a vacation now if the employees do need to come to work they need to observe social distancing rules and of course wear protective gear like masks and gloves now a moscow mayor says that the capital saw a spike in the number of covert cases and this is showing this it's your situation is becoming more difficult let's have a listen to sergei said bannon unfortunately in moscow in recent days we have seen a significant increase in the number of covert positive cases what's more the cold is approaching that means a traditional increase in diseases doctors say that to illnesses together could result in dangerous and serious consequences especially for the elderly and those suffering from chronic diseases that's why for monday we are asking you to stay at home despite these high numbers president putin said that russia is going through this pandemic period all but better than other countries but he also said that it's
9:16 am
no time to relax or trade lightly let's have a listen. you can make these problems of food cruelty otherwise they will expand it's going to be a very tough challenge through citizens through a country and through economy now some health officials are also saying that the this new spike in you call that cases is due to the fact that more people are being tested for corona virus with the roll out all 3rd stage of this the vaccine and russia more and more people are becoming interested in becoming the volunteers in this 3rd stage sort of very good. getting tested and they want to be 1st to be calm. now everyone also remembers that zion when almost sire economies have been shut down due to restrictions however this time authorities in russia are hoping it's not going to go that far and they say they have they have everything under control. we maun medics tell me the front lines have been given the new
9:17 am
russian vaccine against the virus we did speak to one medical worker who battled the smallpox epidemic back in the sixty's and he was now one of the 1st to get the new jab. as soon as i heard there would be a 3rd phase of the vaccine trial and there would be a lot of people i told my daughter please sign me out i want to be vaccinated. live. in a. state of all whom i've given a vaccination none of them have come back and reported any side of things.
9:18 am
i 1st and foremost have never been afraid of getting a vaccination i've gotten them since i was a child i was given a little bottle with a knock you lieschen and then i was vaccinated without any fear or tears and due to my profession and i've done plenty of an occupation says. bush now it's international going to take a quick break we're back with more news on you tube. it's going to be hard to reclaim freedom and we're going to have to work at it but
9:19 am
as people recognize from examples like. what we're. told systems need to. i hope people will start fighting. men saying we won't tolerate systems. streets in our homes that can't possibly track what we're doing. seemed wrong when old rules just don't hold. any new goals to get to shape our disdain becomes to educate and in games from an equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.
9:20 am
i mean. welcome back now the leaders of the so-called fice grad group comprised of 4 he sed in european countries have rejected the european union's latest plan aimed at tackling migration proposed regulations would see the mandatory quote is a migrant distribution scrapped however the plan would also mean countries unwilling to accept migrants would have to pay for the repatriation of those denied asylum the leaders of poland hungary and the czech republic though say that the proposed changes aren't tough enough and they want all my current seeking asylum kept outside the block while their applications are being processed. there are many changes but that is not yet breaks rule breaks rule it would mean outside
9:21 am
or sports so nobody can step on the ground of european union without having their permission to source because their request for as you is accepted should really long tell us that at the g on syria only be. the start that it should be the these people really should stay and leave in their home countries. for the new migration paramus those are the recent fires in maraya refugee camp on the greek island of those bourse the overcrowded facility there burned down on the 9th of september leaving more than $13000.00 migrants without shelter and putting the migration crisis back in the spotlight france and germany did great after that except unaccompanied minors and later berlin also agreed to accept around 3000 people from the camp but any more are still stranded on the island getting intense
9:22 am
and makeshift accommodations so let's get the thoughts now notice my eyes he's a former member of the european parliament and they're professor of the institutions at the university of crete you're very welcome thanks for your time this. the afternoon we heard there the hunger in prime minister viktor orban said that the e.u. migration policy has undergone some change but he says it's mostly cosmetic and doesn't get to the brunt of the of the problems of the previous policy would you go along with that. well there is an area of brooklyn at least for grabs and tell you which are the guns is not a face the british are from of the migration one as the woman in greece around the 165000 people 95000 of them are asylum seekers and they are going to need for the year a new geisha in the process so please can not all of these applications and they
9:23 am
understand that all are member states of the european union or should they do what the if what we think it was the one thing to our book your relation then there are only 2 percent of. 165000 words they agree that say around 1000 before and the others go to the other member states this is really a problem because all of these people are 8 out coming illegally into greece and they stay and wait therefore they are not for their obligation to be processed the idea to handle the applications not in the u. but outside of the e.u. is a very good one but it is not practical because of all the illegal immigrants they end their lives in greece and italy and then they stay there and they great for the
9:24 am
results of the application so it is important for all member states to accept the boss so the reality is to assist them i don't use the word bourbon arrest as messing with greece. but it is the problem here that plainly full eastern european countries want to go along with this new plan to if they do not go along with hate it seems. he won't work. well there european union the. union we. are being. supported otherwise it's evident point the against all knew the benefits and gives nothing then this big european family who are not to exist in the future. of the got interest of this and brown. have a pretty tough. stance as regards the certain that it be but instead but that the
9:25 am
same time they accept. your as coming to their. assistance. you know this is an economic. accept that but at the same time thing i don't want to. show it was especially for her because they. did not handle the concentration of the thousands of way to go immigrants coming in greece we face a big problem. as you know that. he is being this madness. pushing you gotta live rounds to come into place especially in the islands or hurt in the. place of ever was which is the between greece and turkey if you have seen thousands of rounds you going to be going around been held by the evil
9:26 am
thought it is. missing that will use it in order to. do it in from a doctor you need you got me into so we're just going to have the law on the problem of illegal immigration we need support. especially any indication of. a nice tell him going to leave it at me for now at a time that was nice at mariah's a former member of the year of pain parliament and a professor of emails to change since being at the state of crete thanks for your time thank you very much. now another new to start a new major car companies including tesla have filed lawsuits against the trump of ministration for what they called unlawful tariffs on chinese made parts they blame the president's trade war with beijing and claim that they can't find alternative manufacturers taylor explains. fost in serious speeding it's way to dominating the car industry but it may have reached a bit of
9:27 am
a roadblock increase tariffs schools economics. through the increase of course and the impact of profitability due to the complexity of the maybe 3 car computer and the demanding timelines necessary for teslas exponential growth to say is unable to find another manufacturer to meet our requirements tesla has filed a lawsuit against the trumpet ministration why well teeth components the company uses namely the computer chips are made in china and as luck would have it these parts are subject to 25 percent tariffs as part of trump's tough on china strategy ido musk says it's a car crash and the tariffs are all poetry capricious and an abuse of this question probably not what a president wants to hear from one of his country's greatest minds who he's fine gold in the past is one of our great geniuses that we have to protect and with mosques a single says probably not what trump had in mind when he promised to make america
9:28 am
great again protecting our workers are protecting our companies to trade war hurts them doesn't hurt us with a hole in his pocket now musk is asking for a refund with interest of course on all the tax he's already had to pay and tess was not the only company spinning out other big hitters like miss a day's fortune volvo have also decided to sue trump and co they are irony of all this is that while these tariffs are quite literally driving away business for americans and europeans for beijing that they've been a road to diversification i don't crease profit you know the trade friction between china and us puts pressure on companies whose main market is the u.s. although the value of exposed to the u.s. has decreased companies have been exploring multiple markets the result is remarkable and has enlarged known u.s. markets well the. the u.s. market for chinese products has shrunk the search on his overall exports keep
9:29 am
growing so was no doubt for president trump who 4 years ago said the cards were in american hands but we have the cards don't forget we're like the piggy back this being wrapped we can't continue to allow china to rape our country and that's what they're doing it's their greatest theft in the history of the world while 4 years oughtn't the u.s. trade deficit with china is almost 10 percent more than one trump said those wads one for years on it looks like it's now tester and co who are the ones looking into that piggy banks and saying empty was not those gold coins they were promised. it's i live there that's how things are looking so far today here and i say she's coming up to possible in the afternoon to moscow back again to the top tier.
9:30 am
