country alexina valley fell severely ill of a domestic flight in russia in late august he received emergency treatment in the city of almost before later being airlifted to germany for specialist care an investigation there concluded that he had been poisoned with a nerve agent reporting from berlin his peter oliver. the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons has published its findings from samples they tested from alexei navalny the results won't come as too much of a surprise to many the o.p.c. w. found novacek was present those results in a detailed analysis were sent here to germany where berlin has been demanding answers from moscow but using o.p.c. w. finding this as the foundation for allegations it's unlikely to sit well in the russian counter so it is in fact even tacit cool story initiated at the behest of berlin by its your atlantic allies to gather with the leadership of detachment goes

to the chariot of dio p c w it has continued in accordance with to preplan conspiracist scenario with the e.u. council set to meet next week to decide what their reaction to the novell new report will be the german government demanding serious consequences for the use of a chemical weapon this o.p.c. w. reports could have far reaching ramifications peter all over r.t. . all talking of ramifications france and germany have issued a joint statement saying they'll propose sanctions against key russian individuals later this week moscow says it's still awaiting any response to its repeated requests to germany asking to be allowed to cooperate in the valley investigation. they are pretty w.'s in the spotlight for another reason to form a head of the organizations being blocked from speaking at the u.n. security council meeting kevin i've discussed that with correspondent. it what seems an irony for the u.n. which is of course an organization it's all about putting together international
1:04 pm
voices about discussing difficult topics it has bought a former chief. from speaking to the security council now we're talking about the star and he's a brazilian diplomatic he was in fact the foster back to general of the chemical weapons what between 10072002 he's really a figure of a great authority he was invited by moscow to speak on the alleged chemical attack in the syrian city over to my back in 2018 but at the last minute he was essentially disinvited by among others the u.s. u.k. and france russia called this a shame they decided to post with johnny reading the speech he was scheduled to say and they said the following. what happened today unfortunately is yet another sign that western delegations are afraid of hearing the uncomfortable truth you want to silence objective facts that could destroy the picture you have painted of the atrocities of the syrian regime and the infidel ability of the o.p.c. w.
1:05 pm
but it is already clear to everyone that it has little to do with reality i'm wondering if you understand it what an unattractive light you know appear in the eyes of the international community in general what happened today is a shame and a disgrace so. this is what he said but what specifically is it that he said this ruffled these further she thinks or he was planning on discussing what numerous whistleblowers cool and o.p.c. w. cover up all of those events in duma now just a quick recap of the images of civilians at the mouth washing out that i so much investigated and they officially blamed assad's government this of course that assad has the basis on. the u.s. u.k. and france conducted strikes but in the following months and indeed years after this a number of former employees came forward and they said we were part of these investigations we were on the ground and what we saw doesn't support this official narrative
1:06 pm
what's even more sensational claim to start in fact any dissenting opinions or evidence was removed from the final report under pressure from the top this is a small snippet of what they say most of the duty and see reports on the incident the interim report and the final report was scientifically impoverished procedurally regular and possibly fraudulent well let's hear exactly what was stanley said on all of that the serious questions are now being raised whether the independent impartiality and professionalism of some of the organizations work is being severely compromised possibly under pressure from some member states we've got lists of whether or not this is substance to the concerns raised about to pursue the obvious behavior in to do more investigation hearing what your own inspectors have to say would be an important 1st step in mending you're going to see this is the major reputation for bustani has previously paid the price for
1:07 pm
challenging official narratives and what was described by many as an offensive led by washington back in 2002 percent was dogged by allegations of mismanaging the w. it was already quite dramatic the u.s. representative in fact was booed and one of the sessions when he failed to provide documentary evidence to support that claim eventually though the u.s. prevailed he was removed from the post saying that he with his independent thought had angered a lot of people in washington that they wanted someone more specifically rumors swirled that his that he had somehow blocks the u.s. is tough stance on iraq while barring the story from speaking almost 2 decades after far. him comes of course as they are perceived as back in the spotlight is involved in this entire political saga regarding alexei navarro me with allegations now that the o.p.c. w. is withholding key information on his taste many cynics would point out that now of
1:08 pm
course would not have been a good time for an insider like the star me to reveal that in his and others experience evidence is not treated secretly within the o.p.c. of w. and in fact sometimes it doesn't correlate even with reality. russian military expert who go to colin believes there are still many questions over the whole valley case. first of all we still don't know the exact substance use no one told us about it unfortunately during yesterday's inhibitors come in a wide range of substances all nerve agents have them as well as some medications or substance from the group and the chemical weapon called are 2 different things the substance can be mildly toxic is toxic gas dye crew verse that we use in daily life to kill in 6 months the difference there is for example a cocktail of alcohol that can be ignited and then there is a molotov cocktail that can even say tanks on fire the to the same but quite

different. i think the results could have been falsified we don't know who did was with the bottle it is possible the bottle had been substituted we don't know that and there is no proof reminds me of the fake stories like with white helmets in syria when some unknowns get bottles samples with so-called proof from the crime scenes and later it is found out they were collected someplace else. hospitals in england have recorded the highest daily covert of missions since early june it's adding pressure to a government already under fire over its response to the health crisis critics say the authorities have done nothing but the seeds of covert confusion judie edwards daschle reports from london. and considering the u.k. government's response to cave at 19 pretty and probably wouldn't be the words on the tips of most people's tongues over the course of the year the u.k. has seen thousands of people dying in care homes tests and tracing deadlines set and missed the u.k.
1:10 pm
topping the death toll across europe plus of course britain being on the verge of a round 2 and while most people think the government's response needs to be completely written off it seems as though not everyone agrees it's been. i think it will be like the lympics that's when it's all over and we look back and reflect we will actually be extremely proud of ourselves some people might think a wooden spoon is more appropriate than a shiny metal especially considering the latest news that 16000 positive tests for private 19 have been lost meaning that super spreaders blindly unaware the still spreading foundations of people blissfully unaware they've been exposed to code potentially spreading this deadly virus time and hospital admissions are increasing in the 2nd wave blunder after blunder critics say the government's not learning from its mistakes but as the country hurtles towards a 2nd wave of the virus confusion is still lingering in the guess with mixed messages coming from power. but as i understand it.
1:11 pm
apologies i misspoke today in the northeast new rules mean you cannot meet people from different households in social settings indoors including in pubs restaurants and your home you should also avoid socializing with other households outside go to work but stay at home in town to help out but don't socialize kick start the economy but stay in your it's no wonder the country is confused especially considering the man telling the u.k. what to do is accused of being a tad confused one of the major problems is widespread confusion about the local restrictions people feel very let down a very frustrated very forgotten can we pin all the primal boris johnson ofter all these all around president to times far to go back to all that no prime minister has ever fought before and after months of economic paralysis boris johnson began to i'm not the look down even though parts of the u.k.
1:12 pm
was still plagued with the virus and so the north south divide found its latest partition the timing of the lifting of national lockdown was london centric please remember this the next time you see politicians pointing fingers at our people on the eve of a 2nd wave many might think the government would know what it was doing by now especially considering it's how to round 6 months to prepare but when carrot has been replaced with confusion can the government really expect people to for the rules when it doesn't seem to know them itself to address such the artsy lunches. meanwhile scuffles have broken out in tel aviv between police and protesters who are on get out the israeli government's handling of the pandemic 'd. on tuesday hundreds gathered to denounce the latest covert restrictions the protests have also demanded the resignation of prime minister benjamin netanyahu they claim he's using the virus as a distraction from his ongoing corruption trial is where some had to say.
1:13 pm
you know what it is remaining to see to avoid the 2 voyages. and we are afraid it is trying to. create. a civil war between us 1st we need like we did it to me out that he said ruth here because these things stealing our democracy he's doing things and he's a king in the hey day anger is very strong very strong it will not stop until he resigns or moved away. and we get rid of him forever more than half of all people living in extreme poverty in the parish region being infected with cove it according to new findings by the medical charity doctors without borders reporting from the french capital he shot at the bensky. the shutters have come down the halls across paris and it's in the suburbs all in

a bid to fight rising infection rates of close it 19 it's an epidemic this being described as moving to thrust and while the overall positivity rate for qubit in paris is around 12 percent if you look more closely at those who live in precarious situations such as migrants it's said to be much higher doctors without borders that m.s.f. is now sounding in what it describes as being the 1st study of its kind in europe it found the positivity rate of covert 19 in emergency shelters and in food distribution centers was more than 50 percent the results show an extremely high prevalence the main reason is the conditions of shelters and been packed together which leads to klosters of infection in europe and france no other study shows this type of prevalence these types of figures on this scale can only be found in india or in the slums of brazil but that figure showing
1:15 pm
a positivity rate of more than 50 percent is an average m.s.f. says that in some centers housing migrant workers the rate hit 89 percent a worrying number in places where social distancing can be difficult in president michael's address to the nation in march he promised help for the most vulnerable with him on this i. didn't i want to ask for sacrifices to slow down the epidemic the aid to the most fragile should not be jeopardized for the most vulnerable the most destitute for the isolated who will make sure they can be fat and protected. so have they been forgotten all those people are usually. are forgotten. spontaneous camps. officially didn't exist there were no special police you. during continuation during

dependably to arrive to arrive to arrive and we don't know exactly what. she means and of the temporary shelters have long been used as a base when makeshift camps have been cleared when the lockdown began in march here in france hundreds were moved into accommodation like that and now one of the idea may have been to offer shelter and to get people off the streets it may have also offered the virus the perfect grounds to spread the results confirm that the circulation of the virus was more particularly effective in the situations where the proximity was the highest that is to say when the person has to share a room kitchen with several other people in places where migrant workers are housed together around a 3rd resident share a room with between $2.00 and $5.00 people at 50 share a room with more than 5 people in situations like this it's impossible to distance
1:17 pm
m.s.f. change of strategy we knew that this reception conditions would not work that it wasn't possible to respect very measures we have to change the hosting strategy m.s.f. is submitted its report to the ministry of health it's hoping by highlighting these desperate situations that there can be a changing here for those whose lives are currently being held in the balance so it ought to see paris here in moscow coverts also continuing to make its presence felt over the last 20 days infections have been steadily increasing again they are down slightly today so more than 4000 new cases recorded in the capital the authorities are growing increasingly concerned over those growing numbers while there's no talk of a citywide lockdown yet wearing masks on public transport and public places continues to be mandatory and everyone over $65.00 is advised to stay at home. and. it comes to vaccines russia's health minister says the mass rollout of the sputnik veidt jab
1:18 pm
could start as early as this month he's recently said that the latest trial results have been encouraging russia's antimonopoly service meanwhile says the price of the vaccine will be capped at $13.00 per dose a science writer we spoke to last hour says russia's attempt to combat the corona virus looks promising and they have been or. they are. planning on. you. know it's the end not viral in. my view. which only are. cool. who are well aware. in a way the biology and how they. and their back knowledge are more than on the are. there
1:19 pm
could be. moderate. who are not only. has been a huge explosion of a former russian military facility about 200 kilometers southeast of moscow it's still the blast happened in an old ammunition depot reports say at least 5 people that needed hospital treatment for injuries more than 2000 have been evacuated from nearby villages as a precaution firefighters are attempting to bring the situation under control however explosions continue to be heard. for the race for the white house continues later as democrats and republicans want to get and lock horns this time though it will be a vice presidential scuffle with both trying to convince the public to back their boss is biden or trump but as don quarter reports some question if there's actually much difference between the 2 parties. name calling personal attacks emotional accusations american society is now so deeply polarized between these 2 figures
1:20 pm
donald trump and joe biden the 20 twentieth's election campaign is looking more like a political circus than anything i'm not here to call out his lies everybody knows he's a liar don't ever use the word smart with me ever use that word give me that because you know what there's nothing smart about you joe what do you. excuse the one who so you are number 2 he's putin's puppy you are a senator and the worst with resumes america is ever. to get any word with this clown it's as if many people see this upcoming election as a showdown between good and evil if you like biden he's the country's only salvation from his racist fascist opponent but if you like trump only he can protect america's new greatness from his senile rifle it's like a reality t.v. show where actual policy is absent from the conversation the thing is though if you can get past the rhetoric and the emotion is there really any difference between them the difference between right and you know my early experience did
1:21 pm
you think because they're still there and it was right. on the other here. different experience. to it from probably has a near 0.03 just like those and those were the very ones. where you know i might have some issues like your party let me see as opposed to a consistent framework for you to go 6. thank you. very. very is the difference between. that many times communities and the. party cedarburg. right. hasn't been all that different from the obama. administration in which biden was the v.p. remember the wall trump wanted to build in 2016 as part of his popular promise for a new stance on immigration.
1:22 pm
in penetrable physical tall powerful beautiful southern border wall. isn't a morality it's not who we are is a nation racist and sinful democrats quickly attacked as racist and along came the sad pictures of caged immigrant kids with trying to blame for their misery except some of those pictures were from 2014 under the obama administration that's right trump actually continued many of the same immigration policies from before in fact ice arrests and deportations are still lower than they were under much of obama's watch. let's not forget about the peace promise made on his way to the white house i'm proud to have the support of the war fighting generals active duty military and top experts who know both how to win
1:23 pm
and how to avoid the endless wars and echoed obama's 2008 election promises will begin to responsibly we broke to its people and forge a hard and peace in afghanistan. and also like obama trump has so far failed to deliver the difference here though is that the former president got a nobel peace prize in 2009 even though many of america's foreign entanglements worsened under his administration in 2016 trump even campaigned against the interventionist posturing of both parties but we will no longer use american military might to construct democracies in faraway lands or try to rebuild other countries in our own image those days are now over. there's also. obama's bloated budget deficit which continues to grow under trub the current president made tax cuts for the rich sure but the economy more or less
1:24 pm
continued business as usual until the pandemic when the debates come around again though one has to wonder if biden will be as frank about these parallels as he's been in the past the truth of the matter is you all know you will know when you got to what has to be done we can disagree in the margins but the truth of the matter is it's all within the wheel house and nobody has to be punished no one standard of living will change nothing would fundamentally change when your only 2 options in an election are so similar in terms of policy perhaps shouting racist or senile is the only way to keep things interesting. ok that's how it looks from moscow so fall this wednesday your next aussie wild updates is in just about 35 minutes from now i have to see about.
1:25 pm
it remains unclear who will be the occupant in the white house this january what can be easily predicted is the state of the economy for tens of millions of citizens and it appears what is called the case shaped recovery is permanently dividing the country and the house and have nots and this seems to be acceptable for those who are the outs. is wrong with us as american citizens united laptop that's why. we're in a tough time we have a fast to die and i don't think. i would vote for
1:26 pm
a republican or trump i would vote for anyone who cannot and has half a brain defeat don't try. this if you get. your 2nd wife. she can handle. she and i divorce because our trouble is what the president and i floated for her and she can stand. there when the most important election. you know history is mr the most to go before the next presidential election is the atmosphere in the us now. what are the highest priority problems only brave and true they do next. just some of the questions we put to the american. nuclear power become a battleground in the us in vermont people are demanding the shutdown of
1:27 pm
a local plant from my yankee is right now my focus because it's a very dangerous oh no care power plant the owner is attempting to run the reactor beyond its operational limit this case just sort of puts a magnifying glass on where's the power in this country where's it going is it moving more towards corporate interests or is it more in the idea of a traditional participatory democracy as are powerline with the people this case demonstrates that struggle in very real ways our struggle on artie. a dog industry comes to life in los angeles every night. dozens of women sells their bodies on the streets many of them underage. los angeles police reveal a taste of their daily challenge no if you're going to exploit for a child here in los angeles they were going to come out to see officers going
1:28 pm
undercover as 6 workers and customers to fight the 6 trade. it was a very nice show from president who knew that i could have said no thank you or i could have said thank you and i said i'll take it and now it's time to introduce my best. mr donald trump thank you susan very much for the. name whatever you want to name i mean i don't know how would i come that news that says telecom about a recorder network that's totally dishonest c.n.n. is you know 100 percent negative i.q. and we've. changed the us changes so sometimes they'll say that's going to be
1:29 pm
a great story be a pretty good report another as good as you. will see what happened so who knows it was who knows what we'll see on the field it will be 6. boom bust the one business show you can't afford to miss. say ok in washington coming up the u.s. companies are different pleased with president trump's trade wars with thousands filing lawsuits against the u.s. government over tariffs and president from the twitter and starting lawmakers to hold off on any stimulus negotiations until after the election meanwhile federal reserve chairman said there is little risk and over dealing at risks overdoing it
1:30 pm
seems for now to be smaller even if policy actions ultimately prove to be greater than needed it will not go to waste. we have a lot to get to so let's get started. on tuesday the european medicines agency or announced its revealing the 1st batch of coven 1000 vaccine data in a joint statement vaccine developers biotech and pfizer said the start of the review is based on data from laboratory in animal testing as well as early testing on humans while continuing talks to submit data as it emerged. this could speed up the process by allowing researchers to submit findings in real time this comes one week after the e m a started reviewing astra zeneca oxford university's arc scene which is also in phase 3 trials meanwhile with trump determined to get a vaccine before election day the white house blocked the f.d.a. from new proposed code in 1000 vaccine guidelines.
