a spike in 1000 infections. and becomes one of the 1st countries to apply to the world health organization to register a coded 19 for emergency use. coming to you live from moscow with the top stories from the past 7 days right up to the moment the elements as well welcome to the weekly r.t. i mean and o'neill. a week in france the latest a suspect in the shooting of a greek orthodox priest in leone has been released by police suggesting the gunman is still at large the victim remains in intensive care after saturday's incident it took place as the priest was closing his church now an investigation into attempted murder has been opened until terrorism authorities are cooperating with the local

police we heard from witnesses. i live in the area i heard gunshots but at 1st i thought it was firecrackers we didn't take it seriously and then i saw the motorbikes the roadblocks and the police and i realized that it was serious there was a church here and the priest who is 47 years old was shot. i live nearby i was watching t.v. at home and suddenly i heard something like how my blues some big booming noises so it was it might be kids playing out signed i decided to figure out what was going on and then i heard someone screaming when i went downstairs i saw the police and realized what was happening but unfortunately this time it's what's going to happen next that's what we are now asking ourselves. well this latest incident came as france was still trying to come to terms with tragedy a terrorist strike on thursday morning in the city of nice when a knife a man run paged through a church killing 3 that attack coming just 2 weeks after the brutal beheading of

a teacher in paris who had shown his last caricatures of the prophet muhammad president the scribe the attack in nice as an islamist terror incident this is how the day unfolded. descended. upon for the siren of the firemen the police arrived quickly since really with bikers and everything that followed then they set up a security decision i went down with my scooter and i saw the guy coming to take refuge in the cathedral afterwards i heard a lot of gunshots. tradin filmmaking that we do know what happened i lost my son and i lost my life and i

demanded a mystic a shit about who stands behind the scenes today and i want to know who committed my son my son does not do such things we are enormously shocked we are good people who stand against terrorism and we denounce one half of what we know about him is that he is a more room well racist person and we do not believe that he has suspicious connections and this is what. we should i was in that church of the time of the attack it was almost 19 yeah i get a call from the police and was told that it terror attack has been committed in the not one number zelig close down your church they said it all happened so quickly. i was relieved but in this new tragedy today you see victims of islamofascism repeatedly denounced.

the main suspect behind the attack in the cells being identified as a 21 year old chin is he in migrant he was not previously known to french intelligence. you arrived in europe in september via italy were claimed to be a refugee however he was served an expulsion notice and then dropped off the your thora his radar 3 others are being arrested in connection with the case with reports on sunday of 2 more suspects having been taken into custody with more from nice here is our to charlotte and. the anti terror prosecutors said on thursday evening that they were still exploring lines in regards to the perpetrator behind the brutal attack in the priscilla behind me not to the silica in the heart of nice with 3 people were brutally murdered i just want to take you through some of the details we know about the victims of this latest terror attack france one was a 60 year old woman who had gone to the church for prayers for the 1st mass of the

morning we heard from the anti terror prosecutor that she was almost beheaded by the perpetrator a 2nd was a 55 year old man who also worked as a sex in the church she'd been here for 10 years and the 3rd person was a woman she was stabbed she managed to escape from the church to raise the alarm. as a result of her heroic actions the police were informed and able to come in apprehend the perpetrator she succumbed to her injuries her last words were apparently tell my family that i love them present maccarone has warned france's once again attack but when he visited nice on thursday he remained defiant that freedom and france would continue to up hold its valleys and some said think if we were attacked once again it is for our values for our taste of freedom for this possibility on our soil to believe freely and not to give in to any mind of terror

i say with great clarity once again today we will not give in 4000 extra security personnel now deployed across france particularly at sites like this church and also at school. isn't one of the reasons that religious sites are getting the priority when it comes to securities because there was a release earlier this week from a thought but which is a press agency linked to the terror network al qaeda which suggested that christian symbols should be attacked people here disbelief shock once again that this could hit at the heart of the city but there is also anger to. the french demand justice who want these people to be deported to their country ok in security there is no safety 3 people are dead what you are married to build another mosque people have been coming to the church in lame true peace since that attack took place but

the reality is that this is a community that is still in complete shock over what's happened. we spoke with middle east expert who says freedom of expression is the rock on which ever widening the visions are being fought. tensions are mounting every day between the slimy quirt and france in france we have the french government saying that we have the freedom of speech we have the freedom to do any said about anyone we want and on the other side we have the slimy word which says ok you can have the freedom of speech but you do you shouldn't be insulting our prophet so this 2 points of view are opposing each other and these 2 communities don't understand each other if we want to stop the radical islam here in france we should prove and we should show them that france is a neutral country that what we call here. that no religion has the right to

interfere with the government or the state of affairs in france. muslims across the world have been protesting against president mccracken's crackdown on hardline islam tensions have also been heightened by the french to recall magazine surely have those latest front cover featuring a caricatures of the turkish president right because the of picks up the story. something in france is broken and it is france nowhere else in europe is there this much terror killing and a complete breakdown and mutual respect and understanding a year ago macron warned against stigmatizing muslims we're all one people he said since then something has changed now he's talking about islam of separatism shutting down dozens and dozens of muslim charities and organizations and has unveiled a plan to domesticate is lot. of our citizens of the islamic

faith must be protected against the evil of radical islam i say it here because the will of the islamists of its ideologues is precisely to turn a part of our citizens against the republic using their religion and we cannot let that happen macro platen involves forbidding french moms from training overseas restricting foreign funding for religious organizations giving the government control over religious subsidies and you loon you get money if you sign a contract saying you respect french values he even has a name for this new french islam the islam of an lightman or everyone is challenged about macros little cult and specifically his cracked out on muslim charities and and geos if the government still goes on to divide us it will create separate groups in society and it is not the solution. associations and i'm guilty maybe

some people who come in but not everybody people have the right to practice their religion is the want our government to calm the tensions down today we have to be careful of not developing and then to muslim hatred it makes no sense and it is dangerous it is incredible how simple cartoons can cause this much bloodshed and hated misunderstanding one side sees these. it's nothing but an insult in the public since the stunt which essentially they are intended only to insult and offend more than a 1000000000 people the other side including the french government sees it as an expression of free speech. than any god and free speech is a constitutional right of any french citizen for 14 years charlie has reprinted these cartoons at regular intervals a magazine with a very modest circulation has now found a cash cow people's feelings and beliefs for which they themselves have paid

a high price. and. swore never to give up these characters and during so even if everyone else does only further angry muslims. needs a mental health treatment what else can be said to

a head of state who does not understand freedom of belief and who behaves in this way to millions of people living in his country who are members of a different faith muslims are the primary victims of the cult of hatred empowered by colonial regimes and exported by their own clients the recent statements that the leadership level is the dence of this a creation of the holy qur'an or reflects. of this increasing islamophobia that is spreading in european countries we must explain to the western world the value systems differ for different social and religious and ethnic groups in the world backgrounds tough talk has so far completely failed francis that i've seen as an enemy in the muslim world islam the phobic so boycotts protests and all that as for his little project his plan to essentially domesticate islam in france may yet be the most add bishes thing macron has undertaken. to other news this

hour thousands of people have rallied in central london against a 2nd lockdown it's due to come into force on thursday as the u.k. follows other nations in europe in an attempt to tackle a big rice and covered 1000 cases. was. people held up by immersion kucing the authorities of tyranny for restricting the movement of people they protest happened as the british prime minister made the announcement. we've got to be humble in the face of nature and in this country alas as across much of europe the virus is spreading even faster than the reasonable worst case scenario of our scientific advisors and so now is the time to take action because there is no alternative from thursday until the start of december you must stay at home you merely leave home for specific reasons we're not going back to the full scale of march and april the measures that i've

outlined to let's prove it have less restrictive but i'm afraid from thursday. the basic message is that the city stay at home protect the n.h.s. and save lives. the new rules take effect in november 5th and will last until the 2nd the sempre all non-essential shelves will close along with entertainment venues restaurants and pubs people will be required to work from home where possible however schools colleges and universities will be allowed to stay open after 4 weeks of locked on the plan is to returning them to a system of local targeted restriction. where they need arises but of corona virus infection rates don't fall quickly enough government officials have suggested the restrictions may last longer. well since the beginning of the pandemic the u.k. has been hit with more than a 1000000 covert 1000 cases and over 46000 deaths the highest number in europe in

the past week the u.k.'s daily infection rates has exceeded 20000 political commentator on 3 webber believes though the proposed cure may well be worse than the disease even before this locked out really explains how up out of the situation more how much more. we can and now certainly aren't we going to be problems more because we government can somehow afford to ignore the moment so who which of the taxpayer will have to pay for the young people of this film tree without a penny for the future. what will they do you are going to shoot should want to be easy going through speakers that are being asked for contrary well where are the. top let's pull. the whole foods disasters we're in government should be doing is the best so you know how is that beautiful to be true even if only people are

the world is driven by a dream shaped by. the day or thinks. we dare to ask. hello again a russian coded 19 vaccine name sputnik v. has been distributed to the 1st group of volunteers older than 60 the head of the trial said none of the participants showed any significant side effects after getting the initial dose russia has also become one of the 1st countries to apply

our website for now though here's a quick preview. i think it's a blessing the coronaviruses evolve more slowly than other r.n.a. viruses but still it's a very quick process the virus mutates every 2 weeks but in one specific lineage what is a specific leni well vassie infects mush mush infects pits in pits infix tanya in such a lineage the virus mutates once but at the same time a similar process is taking place across the globe since different viruses acquire different mutations in total we see tens of thousands of mutations we can already see approximately 20000 mutations. that is $20000.00 versions of the same karuna virus that is believed to have originated and.

we now see that the common ancestor was around in december or january the genomes of all the coronaviruses we are sequencing and studying right now show that they are all descended from one common ancestor which existed back then so it seems to me very unlikely that the parson fact that a person before that time. there is a widespread belief that the virus does not exist in order to kill the owner but in order to somehow perfectly adapt to it and live quietly inside them. actually this is not what the virus cares about most we know a huge number of examples one of our success didn't put glaciers for many many years many centuries and did not weaken smallpox for example measles which is fatal in a large proportion of cases if there is no treatment but generally it often happens that the mortality rate does not change at all. so there is no guarantee that

covert 19 will somehow become less dangerous. leader in the near future there are no guarantees of that. in less than 48 hours the polls will open in the us for the most pivotal election in recent history it may be a nation divided but a majority do agree on something according to recent surveys that poor leadership is eroding trust in government institutions artie's killer blood been reports. whether it's donald trump or joe biden who's sworn in on january 21st next year the pillars of u.s. society will not stop shaking just for that covert 19 may be ravaging the united states but americans think that their government and its institutions could be just as dangerous to the country in an earlier poll when asked to name the greatest disappointments the u.s. congress and the us president came up top that might be because on capitol hill

they seem to spend more time in name calling than actually getting things done is following the radical left agenda no religion no anything hurt the bible hurt god. prisoners who have in modern history joe biden is the puppet of left wing extremists trying to erase our borders eliminate our police we have racists and they've existed then tried to get elected president the 1st one that has this fits into a greater pattern of distrust and the failure of essential institutions in us society whether they favor conservative or liberal policies when it comes to health care americans agree that the centers for disease control and other government institutions designed to protect public health have completely failed the country in the face of coded 19 centers for disease control and r.u. . department of homeland security this year john these 2 track

global pandemic you know what they do they fail you from their chaotic early response to underestimating the danger to the lack of testing kits and accusations of becoming a political tool the centers for disease control are being hit from all sides other essential institutions of us society are affected by a deep crisis for example law enforcement. are our. recent protests sparked by the killing them. george floyd as well as a long history of police brutality have many americans asking whether or not there are really safe and protected public trust in the police as an institution has been in decline intelligence agencies are yet another example they are expected to gather information and then provide it to the military but lately they seem to have been getting caught up in political squabbles if the 1st people you met from so-called american intelligence were dirty cops who have now proven to be sleaze

bags at the highest level you could perhaps understand my reluctance to embrace the intelligence agencies seem to be competing with each other rather than being focused on getting the job done many wonder if they are up to the task of taking on china which has now been labeled the new big threat the us government and intelligence community will fail to achieve the outcomes required to enable continued u.s. competition with china on the global stage for decades to come and to protect the us health and security none of this started with donald trump it's been a long pattern of decay and demoralization americans just don't seem to have faith in their leaders and their government like they once did it looks like a lot of key institutions in the united states need a reboot and fast or else who knows what kind of disaster could await america next caleb mop and artsy new york. now politicians trying to appeal to young voters is

often a recipe for cringe in the mix on the 2020 trail we've seen everything from cooking person sneakers to rob. everybody's got in a ton of trouble up not just some higher local event mentor the local. never let myself your powerful and part of the power you have especially adolescence is your world. all right good clothes i want you to take a look at my nails how they look. they're looking very poor in. the fall you

know. it's ok. biden has a plan for african americans we're not dealing with your average joe i see the way you're looking right now you know exactly where i'm going with these 4 years we had trump in office and we made the most of week when we finally got somebody that could be in to give us a chance to have a moment. live

from moscow this is our team international stay close know as we bring you some top programs beginning moments right after look at what else is on offer over the next week and i'm you know no legal goodbye for now. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to us from the world of politics or business i'm show business i'll see you then.

the u.s. has a history complicated and heated presidential election what's different this time is that the biggest political events of the last 4 years is happening amid the coronavirus and the rest of the level of civil unrest sparked by the death of george floyd and the lies of the radical groups on both sides of the political spectrum. right there which is your. say. these groups attract fairly young members who have taken to the streets may control tasks look like full scale. the hear we're going to do you know what's about to. visit demonstrators are sometimes heavily armed and they are not afraid of violence or law enforcement. if you will of war let it begin with us. or go into trouble across the u.s. over the next week to meet those groups and their leaders to find out how far

they're ready to go to fight for what they believe to stupid for this country. we are in virginia members of a group called the boogaloo boys the boogaloo boys have been around for several years now but the recently came into the media spotlight during the summers and say lockdown and government protests in august several dozen heavily armed men and tactical gear carrying the big guns showed up for a rally in virginia capital richmond to be. among the demonstrators were the blue borscht who could be identified from their bright line shirts they were many of their bulletproof vests this became one of their symbol their style if you will it's been reported in the american press that many of the movements and here.
