the. curfew for. president. against the virus. thread. with the foreign minister describing europe's response to the alleged poisoning of. hostile. relations.

the question is not just with business as usual. with any business with the european union. 247 news live from moscow this is r.t. international a warm welcome to the program my name you know. we begin in france where president . strict new rules to be applied to other major cities as well in response to cohabit 19 a nighttime curfew will be in force from this coming weekend for a minimum of 4 weeks. if. we have made a decision to impose a curfew it will be in force in the paris region and 8 other french cities well this all came of course as it was declared that france was moving into a new state of health emergency something that had subsided back in the summer when

the numbers of cases had gone down but that is not how back president mark on talk to the stage to address the french public on wednesday night to talk about the new stricter measures that would come into place he said he didn't want to infantile eyes people to treat people like children but he said that people must follow the rules and if they didn't follow the rules or respect those rules and they could be even new stricter restrictions coming into force in the next few weeks but what he has announced is this nightly curfew that will start on saturday and that will operate from 9 pm in the evening until 6 am in the morning and that will be across paris the greater parisian region and also 8 other cities the worst affected cities by 19 now president machen said that this will have to be strictly regulated if you are out past 9 pm and you don't have a good reason i.e. you're not leaving your work to go home or you don't have an artist in which is

like a paper to say that you can be out on the streets you will be fine the 1st time a 135 euros repeat offenders will face 1500 euros in terms of fines and we understand that this will be in place for at least 4 weeks but the government is going to look to extend that up until december 1st so that will be for 6 weeks but that could if you will be in place to give you an example the number of cases almost 23000 new cases registered in the last 24 hours with more than a 104 deaths also read just it now president michel also talked about. the things that needed to be taken into consideration he said that we needed to reduce private gatherings in france have less social contact with people and the rule of 6 that's been in place in restaurants he said now had to be in place in private settings too and while he said it was still ok to visit your family and to travel around france

he said even with your family members and your friends if you can't be more than a metre away from them you must still where unmask well there has been reaction thick and fast to those announcement by president mack on. 60 percent of infections happen at work schools or universities between 8 and 7 pm but micron is banning people from going out to bars restaurants between 8 pm and 6 am welcome to absurdity there must be great disappointment among medics tonight who have heard no announcements of extra personnel material support well on medics president mack on did address the crisis in the hospitals he mentioned the fact that the number of covert patients in the i.c.u. unit intensive care units is now higher than it was back in march at the start of the 1st wave of the kopechne 1000 pet demick here in france and he said that they

were in a worrying state as a result of that he said these measures were being taken to reduce the number of people who are testing positive for kovac 900 from the 20 odd 1000 that we've seen in the last 24 hours down to just a few 1000 which he said would be manageable by hospital staff but the reality is that these measures in place now astrid he said we will have to live with the virus until at least the summer of 2021 and there will be many people at night having listening to that speech of president back on worrying about the future of their businesses that could be coming into place on saturday in paris and in 8 other cities across the country it will last from 9 pm every night until 6 am every morning and it will be strictly enforced short of driven scooter going through that well we spoke a little while earlier with the health director for red cross international who supports the tougher restrictions. the stuff for mention measures are welcome and

now we as the red cross today called out for political leaders to intervene in our speedy courageous and inclusive way to ensure that these measures are put in place to protect the the health and the social nomic status of the people of france and in many other countries even europe or many countries are being taken little bit by surprise by the iraq surge of cases and so the are many countries are reacting within the deposits 48 hours with new measure that being put in place what ease needed to moment to ease. measures that can reduce the deferred trust mission but measures that can also bring people along and this is critical you know order to ensure that those measures are actually effective in. a significant day here in

russia a 2nd experimental vaccine against krone virus has officially been registered epi corona successfully passed phase well into clinical trials earlier we discuss what's ahead after one of our putin made the announcement on wednesday. the vent to research center in the disappears is registered karuna the 2nd russian vaccine against corona virus the epi bot corona vaccine was developed by siberia based state a research center among the largest in russia it was founded more than 45 years ago that in the soviet times these one in phase 2 of its clinical trials are now behind and we heard it was a success meaning the drug is safe now face 3 is coming in and it is a study in whether the vaccine is in fact effective we hear that around $40000.00 volunteers are expected to take part and for that purpose $60000.00 doses of the drug will be produced and we hear from russia's vice premier that it will happen

very very soon interesting to mention is that normally all 3 stages so phases of the human a clinical trials should be completed before registration but the world has been living in quite an emergency mode in the last 8 or so months so procedures have been slightly changed slightly adjusted so this is world's 2nd registered vaccine against 19 the 1st one was also registered in russia back in august it is known as sputnik all satellite feed it is and then the virus vector viral vaccine and we now hear from its developers that by november russia will be able to produce up to 6000000 doses of vaccine maining aid to may take up to 12 months to vaccinate around 80 percent of the country's population and as we hear from russia's president vladimir putin the russian citizens house is among the country's key priorities but. first we need to make these vaccines available on the russian

markets they must be supplied to russian pharmacies on as large a scale as possible we continue to cooperate with our foreign partners and we will promote a vaccine abroad as well they're going to. international cooperation and foreign partners we know that 50 countries are already interested in russia's sputnik of the vaccine against kawiti we heard that from the head of russia's investment fund who just earlier this week came back from the united arab emirates where phase 3 of the clinical trials of sputnik was approved billeted to the sputnik. you know gold piece 3 was made in the issue of participate to is definitely very important we believe you we use a strategic cob for concurring the bios not only of the middle east in the world now marie i know that you've been vaccinated yourself. be the 1st russian vaccine

can you tell us more about your experience with it is a double blind trial meaning placebo is used and neither doctors know the participants know who is getting the wharton only 75 percent of the volunteer is actually jabbed with a real short and till the last moment i was hoping that i'm among them i got 2 injections already on the 1st and 21st day of the trial so i got reactions like fever muscle pain and had a off to both injections actually now i just now received results showing that my body right now has i.g.g. antibodies meaning my body reacted to. 1000 to corona virus as if i was in fact a vaccine apparently i got the vaccine. job so i'm very happy with that. it's no longer business as usual when it comes to the new threats and these ations continue to rule out from brussels russia's top diplomat sergio of rolf was

speaking to russian media executives including ortiz editor in chief margarita simonyan also on the agenda was bella reuss turkey's involvement in the current conflict are. those big talking points there. we had a very lengthy and really comprehensive conversation between foreign minister sergei lavrov and editors in chief of a number of media organizations that was so much to unpack that such an array of topics but one that was given considerable attention was russia's increasingly difficult relationship with the european union now love prof notes that of course the 2 have mutual interests especially economic ones let's think of course just off the north stream to a gas pipeline but that all of this was made very difficult by what the fire foreign minister described as a condescending attitude from the blog and this constant to mons being put on moscow this is what he said about the impact of that after 2 years almost of there

was no go through approvals. the question is not just where the business as usual is possible but with any business with the european union is possible a tool the e.u. behaves arrogantly towards us and looks condescendingly down at russia demanding answers from us for all the crimes it imagines we have committed i think we are under no obligation to respond to that. also add to that a versa phobic minority within the european union was only father undermining the relationship now of course this all comes against the backdrop of wosm diplomatic ties between moscow and brussels as a result of the alleged poisoning of russian opposition figure i'll explain a follow me now one of the significant part of what lavrov said talked about double standards and he said that often the puts much more pressure on moscow than it would on itself and he said especially when it comes to the idea of interference in foreign affairs as this is something that people few very subjectively but i

wouldn't go to. in 2017 during the election in france marine le pen's a legitimate politician came to moscow to meet with president putin then french foreign minister publicly claimed that this was an attempt at foreign interference in the electoral process. fronts now look at who holding meetings with smith learned to ignore skier who no one pays any attention to the fact that this could also be considered as foreign interference russian affairs. suck a lot from laid out his few on what the end goal was from these verbal assaults from fact competition for calls for sanctions and for causing tellme oil russia's borders. the west will always try to hold us back to undermine our political and economic capacities this is all part of the same old game they want to throw russia of violence not just with direct assaults like dirty competition and illegitimate sanctions creating instability on our borders. now one out of russia's key

relationships on the international stage that was touched upon was of course with washington and quite frankly he said with less than a month to go to the election whoever wins in november whether it's trump or biden probably very little would change he reiterated that all moscow has ever wanted was good cooperation but i'm an equal footing and that sometimes washington's foreign policy made that very difficult other topics such as the protests in batteries or indeed a peaceful resolution to the conflict in the border i care about we're also discussed quite extensively but certainly the lion's share from today's conversation was dedicated to the current status of russia's relationship with key international players and the future of it the message today seemed very uncompromising things cannot continue as they are business cannot go on as usual whether that serves as a trigger for more compromise or want to stand who have to be seen. but we heard from politicians and journalists as well who agree the e.u.

still needs to maintain relations with moscow despite any harsh language coming from h.q. in brussels. i think it will last for some time and then of course the local continue to measure the most important issue that germany and europe could take would be to stop the. pipeline between russia and germany north stream 2 would have caused the german star want to do that because that would get them and do it up very badly we need russian gas and so they don't put them on the sanction list so the sanctions are not really sanctions it's you know wagging the fame girl it's really not up to standard where your to should be as an international power and talking with russia which is another you know hour and the world we have a new wave of anti russian propaganda as well of anti chinese propaganda coming

from the u.s. there is a net through n.g.o.s of the political train politicians and of the population that is uninformed of russia that it's very easy to make such a i don't tell russian company russia is very smart in using soft power so we don't have enough pro russian engines they don't have that. european russian cultural exchange. it would be very helpful if russia could try to be a little bit have a little bit more p.r. that makes it also. and easier for us. to push the other sites like. they're watching our national still ahead trump claims his recovery from coburn 1000 means a minute say but a new study suggests otherwise the details on that story and more after the break.

towns of nagorno-karabakh like the towns of martone and shushi in fact thing is similar pictures similar very very similar devastation can also be seen from azerbaijan its 2nd largest city of ganja came under shelling just a couple of days ago. and it would be wrong to say that the fighting has ceased elsewhere too as we're filming this there's a faint but a very distinctive sound of shelling coming from over the mountains to the south from here that is where the town of adroit is which is viewed as

a gateway into nagorno-karabakh so it is a very heavily contested area the fighting is also fierce in the north. seems both menial and by john are trying to get a firm grip on some key strategic places and heights before real peace negotiations begin as both militaries are fighting for diplomatic leverage reporting from the going to carry back. some. belgian cellist performed. in. the cathedral was shelled a week ago a musician. played a piece by honor composer until this want inspired performance. i played

worldwide death from reinfection was reported this week in the netherlands mark pun dorie who's the lead or through the u.s. study says people should not assume they're safe after recovering from cope with. scientific data that we have from this case and other cases would indicate that if somebody has had voted no chain we just don't know whether that person can be reinspected again it's possible that they could be reinfected again but it's also possible that some people are immune in fact it could be that the vast majority of people are immune and it could be something else that could be in our immune system gives us a resistance that makes the 2nd case a lesser but asymptomatic action list by the confirmed cases of reinfection some people do assume their immune having caught on recovered from the disease alone trumps in the among them the u.s. president bottle covered earlier this month he said he's even ready to get up and
