10:02 pm
until you're given documents materials samples material evidence we will consider all that surrounds this incident an unbridled propaganda campaign of lies or simply put a low grade provocation its purpose is obvious denigrate russia with unsubstantiated accusations and thereby create a far fetched reason for introducing another tranche of sanctions against our country and moscow says it still awaiting any response to his repeated requests to germany asking to be allowed to cooperate in investigation nearly fell severely ill on a domestic flight in russia in late august he received emergency treatment in the city of before later being airlifted to germany for specialist care and investigation there concluded he had been poisoned with a nerve agents reporting from burn in his piece all of a. the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons has published its findings from samples they tested from alexei novelli the results won't come as too
10:03 pm
much of a surprise to many the o.p.c. w. found not the chalk 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. findings as the foundation for allegations is unlikely to sit well in the russian counter so it is in fact even tacit call story initiated at the behest of berlin by your atlantico allies together with the leadership of the technical secretary and of d o p c w it has continued in accordance with a pre-planned conspiracy scenario with the e.u. council set to meet next week to decide what their reaction to the navellier call will be the german government is 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.
10:04 pm
early on speaking of ramifications france and germany have issued a joint statement saying they will propose sanctions are going to the key russian individuals later this week russia's foreign ministries branded the move on except i am adding that instead of course writing on the case germany and france have now turned to threats and blackmail. the o.p.c. w.'s in the spotlight for other reasons as well a former head of the organization has been blocked from speaking at a un security council meeting kevin owen discussed that earlier with our correspondents are secure taylor. what seems an irony for the us which is of course the organization it's all about putting together international voices about discussing difficult topics it has barred a former chief. from speaking to the security council now we're talking about any he's a brazilian to promote he was in fact the foster director general of the chemical weapons what between 10072002 he's really a figure of
10:05 pm
a great authority he was invited by moscow to speak on the alleged chemical attack in the syrian city over duma 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 was tony 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. but it is already clear to everyone that it has little to do with reality i am wondering if you understand 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
10:06 pm
ruffle these for this you think well he was planning on discussing what numerous whistleblowers cool and o.p.c. to cover up all of those events in duma not just a quick recap of the images of civilians at the mouth washing out their eyes so much investigated and they officially blamed assad's government this of course that is the basis on which 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 this and. stations we were on the ground and what we saw doesn't support this official narrative 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 that most of the do see reports on the instant interim report and the final report was scientifically impoverished procedurally
10:07 pm
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 lots of whether or not this is substance to the concerns raised about the pursuit of his 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 challenging official narratives and what was described by many as an offensive led by washington back in 2002 percent on he 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
10:08 pm
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 foreign him comes of course as the a.p.c. back in the spotlight is involved in this entire political saga regarding alexina vaal me with allegations now that the. holding the information on his taste many cynics would point out that now of course would not have been a good time for an insider like the star me to reveal that in his and in others experience i didn't is not treated secretly within the o.p.c. of w. and in fact sometimes it doesn't correlate even with reality russian military experts are you going to couldn't believe there are still many questions unanswered
10:09 pm
over the whole of the case. first of all we still don't know the exact substance used no one told us about it unfortunately clearly mr ray's inhibitors come in a wide range of substances all nerve agents have them as well as some medication or substance from the group and the chemical weapon called are 2 different things the substance can be mildly toxic as toxic gases die cruel 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 set tanks on fire the 2 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 the white helmets in syria when some. bottles samples with so-called proof from the crime scenes and
10:10 pm
later it is found out they were collected someplace else. squaring off in their vice presidential televised debate on the heels of that chaotic clash between joe biden and donald trump last month much of the focus so far in the showdown has been the handling of the. the american people have witnessed what is the greatest failure of any presidential administration in the history of our country from the very 1st day president donald trump has put the health of america 1st whatever the vice president is claiming the administration has done and clearly it hasn't worked when you're looking at over 210000 dead bodies in our country american lives that have been lost families that are grieving when you see it with the american people have done over these last 8 months hasn't worked that's a great disservice to the surface of the american people of maine we're about
10:11 pm
freedom and respecting the freedom of the american people let's talk about respecting the american people respect the american people when you tell them the truth you respect the american people when you have the courage which we've been a leader of speaking of those things that you may not want people to hear if the trump administration approves a vaccine before or after the election should americans take it and would you take it donald trump tells us i said to him that we should take it on not taking it the fact that you continue to undermine public confidence in a vaccine if the vaccine emerges during the trump administration i think is is unconscionable and senator i just ask you stop playing politics with people's lives . it's the latest effort to convince voters to back the democrats or republicans in the race to the white house but don't call the reports of 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
10:12 pm
figures 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 all those lies everybody knows he's a liar they'll never use the word smart with me they'll never use that word give me because you know what there's nothing smart about you joe what do you she was an excuse for her 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
10:13 pm
you think you're there you go far enough away. from the other. government experience. i don't do it for it has a near 0.03 just like those and those were the very ones. where you know i might have some issues like most of your party let me see has a post consistent framework for you to go. thank you. for being. here is the difference between life that the hard times communities and the. party cedarburg. my dears. from present but 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
10:14 pm
a new stance on immigration. the penetrable. 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
10:15 pm
and how to avoid the endless wars and echoed obama's 2008 election promises that we're going to responsibly we brought to its people and forge a hard earned 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
10:16 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 all know when you got what has to be done we can disagree in the margins but the truth of the matter is it's all with a no 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. hospitals in england have recorded their highest daily total emissions since. well hospitals. this pressure to a government already under fire over its response to the health crisis critics say view authorities have done nothing but so the seeds of confusion showed it was
10:17 pm
dusty reports from the. when considering the u.k. government's response a. brilliant job 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 testing tracing deadlines set and missed the u.k. 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 a failure i think it will be like the lympics that's when it's all over and we look back and reflect we would 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 the super spreaders a blindly unaware the still spreading thousands of people blissfully unaware they've been exposed to covert potentially spreading this deadly virus
10:18 pm
a time when hospital admissions are increasing and we're 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 fire a scope of confusion is still lingering in the guess with mixed messages coming from those in power. in. the hospitality but as i understand it not successful 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 socialising with other households outside go to work but stay at home eat out 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
