12:01 am
. in the summer we relaxed let ourselves go you are obviously the consequences of this in autumn a. very good morning to you watching international we begin in the united states where president elect joe biden's campaign started to prepare its transition into the white house but the outcome of the election is being contested by donald trump with his team trying to challenge biden's path to the oval office. today called the race for joe biden after projecting he'd finally secured in a 1st went to the white house meanwhile president donald trump has yet to concede the election and there's valid legal challenges he's long been alleging fraud claiming thousands of illegal votes were cast and counted ickes ations echoed by some republicans despite election watchers having found no evidence of irregularities. the truths are for public use we're just in freedom
12:02 am
for tonight right. on the election. process. order. we will be. going through all of these examples which i said there are hundreds. in his 1st speech as president elect joe biden vowed to help america become a nation healed but with the election close to the sum of build it the country looks set to remain split down the hawkins explains for many americans the 2020 us presidential election had so much riding on it it was symbolic a long awaited chance for justice to prevail for the country to correct the mistakes of 2016 at least that's how the media and many people saw it where were
12:03 am
you in 2070 when we had the worst president we could argue it's unfair to rank trump as worth president ever after just one year but clearly those scholars see in him great potential the worst in most dangerous president in the history of our country and the worst one resumes america has ever had. a rollercoaster few days a rollercoaster which hasn't quite reached its end that moment came in the form of joe biden's victory the bible tells us to everything there is a season a time to build a time to reprint a time to sew and a time to hear oh this is the time to be here in america thousands of jubilant people celebrating on the streets a far cry from the scenes we saw after the last presidential election seemingly the only tears this time with those of joy. it's. a case where a lot of people who have really suffered before odds might be exaggerating but to
12:04 am
some it really looks like a savior has the same bit upon america except this is a reality only heart of the country but inspired it did landslide or blue wave didn't happen and no matter how many times he was called the worst president in american history the worst president the country's ever had trump still managed to gain the support of close to haul free lecture it and they alongside his campaign team i'm not giving up without a fight. i . was not able people over and immediately. with the democratic leaders will trump us so far also refused to concedes making a slew of allegations about the legality and accuracy of the voting process if you count the legal votes i easily win if you count the illegal votes they
12:05 am
can try to steal. the election from us he's now widely branded a freak deluded a sore loser but we've heard all this before you can run the best campaign you can even become the nominee. and you can have the election stolen from you and trump's team up behind him ready to do battle in the country's legal system and hires the courts to stop what they see as an injustice these lawsuits will be brought starting on monday as you know from the very beginning the mail in ballots were a source of some degree of skepticism if not a lot of skepticism as being innately prone to fraud this fraud war between the trump and bought in camps won't end anytime soon how do we know this well that simple the last one dragged on for trump's entire term a democratically elected president was accused of just about every wrongdoing trump is already acting like
12:06 am
a russian donald trump is actively or was actively colluding with russia hone told mahler's office about more contacts between trump's orbit and it's it appears trump himself in russia they didn't believe trump when he denied there was any collusion for example so why should he give his opponents the benefit of the doubt what claims the president made yesterday were simply not supported you know i think what the president needs to do is frankly put his big boy pants on he needs to acknowledge the fact that he lost and he needs to congratulate the winner well it's not for us biden or trump to decide whether any wrongdoing took place during the 2020 lection it looks like math will be down to the supreme court but what we do know is that trump's 4 years in office might have taught him a valuable lesson about how to fight his battle and so far it looks like they'll be little unity along the way we discuss the allegations of fraud with our guests.
12:07 am
there's no doubt but that joe biden is the president elect and will take office at noon on the 20th of january next year there are no court cases that have any merit the margins are such that they are not capable of being disputed and also clear joe biden won the election by 5000000 votes the most votes that any candidate has ever gotten the country's polarized but there was an extraordinary turnout in this election largely because of donald trump and because a majority of americans wanted did not want him to continue as president joe biden got it got over 50 percent of the vote for. hillary clinton and won by 3000000 votes but she didn't get 50 percent there are teams of lawyers in every state with question marks on them and their purpose is to put together their part of a case that's going to be presented to the public and to justice as
12:08 am
a full case that shows that the election outcome was altered by the fraud that it was that significant number to give you just one of those mathematical mere impossibilities to show you how you can obviously see that things were done that are not right to. vote for hillary clinton was very strong and a lot of democrats capital cities including the ones in the swing states joe biden got fewer votes than hillary clinton in every a major american city except for and those 4 are milwaukee detroit atlanta and philadelphia the 4 cities where much of the obvious to change every is going on so joe biden got more votes than hillary clinton coincidentally in the 4 capital cities of the swing states but less all across the rest of the country and still he gets a record number 74000000 popular votes for president. how does that happen when
12:09 am
only 4 cities have to make up a disadvantage to your previous jam today in the previous election it's just mathematically nearly impossible i think there's a lot of circumstantial evidence a lot of self evident impossibilities like that and you have to assemble them all into a single detailed case and i think that's what president trump's team of lawyers is doing right now. staying with our top story outside of america europe's also been taking an intense interest in the trump biden race for the white house and now with biden become president elect brussels has high hopes bilateral ties will be bolstered the european union stands ready to intensify cooperation with the new administration and with the new u.s. congress together we will address pressing global challenges i look forward to driving this global agenda together with the next president of
12:10 am
the united states joe biden great day for the united states and europe we look forward to working together with new administration to rebuild our partnership. again joe lovano now by our correspondent in paris charlotte do pinski she's following events in europe show a good morning and how big a relief do you think the biden victory is for the a you you know taking into account that had 4 years of locking horns with donald trump well i think that transatlantic relationship is something that's incredibly important to the e.u. and i think many leaders were sighing relief over the weekend that it was a biden victory those congratulations coming through thick and fast most people talking about looking forward to working with the biden ministration and a key word cropping up again and again about cooperation. congratulations to joe biden on his election as president of the united states and to come out of a harris on historic achievement the u.s.
12:11 am
is our most important ally and i look forward to working closely together on our shared priorities from climate change to trade and security the americans have chosen their president congratulations joe biden and come all of harris we have a lot to do to overcome today's challenges let's work together i look forward to future cooperation with president biden our transatlantic friendship is irreplaceable if we are to master of the great challenges of our time. well we know joe biden has said he will sign back up to the paris climate accord that was welcomed by many people including those with a green slant but other policy areas are perhaps of more concern to european leaders one of those is nato we know that trump over the last 3 years has caused divisions within nato tensions and made many demands there joe biden is seeing scenes being a man who not only supports nato but would be looking to reinforce the alliance for
12:12 am
the next 4 years of his term however there are also things that may not change trump demanded that nato members pay their fair share that 2 percent of g.d.p. and that is likely under biden to remain the status quo. joe biden isn't going to change washington's approach to international issues overnight because he can't it's a mistake to believe that everything changes europe must be above all continents. nothing will be easy there are also many issues where i don't think anything is going to change there. and then there's trade we've had these trade wars over the last few years with donald trump slapping tariffs on us on e.u. goods going in to the u.s. but biden in his presidency would inherit a u.s. trade deficit of some $170000000000.00 so trade is still going to be an issue
12:13 am
there's also the sticky problem of digital taxes on tech giants such as facebook apple and google this is something that still needs to be resolved and there are the subsidies over airbus and boeing all causing problems that joe biden will have to look at and they may not be a result the european leaders want now european leaders have been pursuing this path of sovereignty in terms of defense in terms of trade its general strategy and it looks like that will also continue. doing it up in a did an unprecedented step in european history and the consolidation of an independent europe which gives itself a means to confirm its identity and culture the 3rd to deal with china the united states and the global to suddenly a stronger more united and more sovereign europe. and then there's the other issue of the impending breaks it the e.u. leaders may be feeling pretty smug about this considering it is unlikely that the
12:14 am
biden ministration will give the u.k. any special favors particularly if there is a new deal breaker which is how it seems those negotiations are going to end but let's be clear even leaders know that joe biden has a huge amount to do domestically not only has he has to hew lose divisions as he said himself but he also has to recognize that with more than 17000000 votes that were gained by donald trump in this election trump ism is alive and kicking and joe biden really has to do something quite big to hold his hand out to those electors to those voters to bring them perhaps back into the fold or at least to heal those divisions sharda was there with the european reaction to the impending biden presidency charlotte thinking. believe. me to the german defense minister says that there's a high chance biden will adopt the same destructive policy of previous democratic administrations followed. july is not an empty wide street
12:15 am
healer then it's a democratic party you were in the ninety's. the charter of the united nations charter of snowden nations is virtually very outspoken against a lot of votes and what didn't need to know and learn under the leadership was you know its readers it was now you are joe biden was vice president and you were the laws in absolute accordance to all that was that all was and that was and there is a good chance george biden continuous to see we as a democratic but we did it in the ninety's and president obama did it as their wives in there is a lot of fun so the side of the official going to leave and when it comes to your. the u.k. has denied entry to all visitors from denmark over concerns that they may be infected with a new strain of covert 93 taishan of the virus which spread through mink farms has
12:16 am
been detected in 214 people breaks have also been reported in fur farms across other parts of europe and the us millions of mink are now said to be culled. the rich have much of the virus mutates in mink and the mutated virus can spread to humans this is very very serious as the danish health authorities and they were bored to have found 5 examples of flyer assist in maine farms in the mutated virus remain committed there for pulls the risk that they are becoming vaccines it will not work as they should. the marks approach to the mutation
12:17 am
a spot concern among animal welfare activists it's an issue we put up for debates with a panel of guests because weight and hard. precautionary measures are very important if there are issues that we need to stop the roots of transmission wherever however you can my concerns are that if this reservoir of infection then spreads to other animals and then we establish a new more reservoir for the coronavirus the 2 variants that it becomes much much harder and much more more difficult to control and eradicate corona virus from the human population if that is what we are trying to achieve it's not the 1st time that we have seen cold at 19 on make farms we have seen far farms in the net netherlands in spain in italy in the us and them
12:18 am
are all become hot spots for the virus so well take the risk why should we gamble with what could be a huge. threats to public health nobody needs a mentor coach but we all need a vaccine that's effective yes of course we can expect today she and yes of course it is sad to direct knowledge that meant have got this infection one thing that is a missing link is that international bodies who can look at the genome sequence of the virus that is circulating amongst the denmark meaning other people haven't had access to to carefully scrutinize and see what the issues are we need to be cautious we need more information from denmark about what exactly is this mutation that you are very concerned about it's very disheartening to see
12:19 am
the cult happening its millions of animals and cause has also happened in other countries like all the 19 has and sound on farms but it's important to remember that even without these culls and even without an deming these animals will not have had a happy retirement anyway they would have had their lives ended in a gruesome cruel way to become fire codes so the only thing that we can do to protect animals and to protect human health from this sort of thing that can develop them in harms is to ban the fair trade and this is what we're calling on denmark to do fire was a dying industry anyway the top designers in the world are refusing to work with it but i do concur with my colleague that the rep of the use of deferred or the fashion industry knew that writing in quite some time but this is serious for the 5 of the trade that was related to the made for example comes to bear market
12:20 am
relevant you're talking rom 800000000 worth of trade. to towards all of them and especially to trying about what all of the world and. measure has been told drastic by the government and the prime minister most probably will put an end to this to this. to this industry anyway is it really necessary to have farmed animals so that we can harvest their 1st i think that per se is very cruel and i appreciate that there have to be euthanized now the question we should really be asking is is it necessary to farm them in the 1st instance. turning now to russia where the pandemic is spiraling with the daily rate of new infections topping 20000 for the past 3 days in a row she alleged on this now from our correspondent situated in moscow the surviving culture a very good morning to them on how is russia coping with this 2nd wave of the pandemic. but also for the situation in russia is
12:21 am
far from a log down according to the authorities an economy is growing at the moment but yes indeed last week russia saw the highest number of infections over the entire period . more than 20000 have been diagnosed daily over the weekend with moscow claiming more than a quarter of those infections so it's no wonder the measures here in the in the russian capital are some of the toughest and strictest in the entire country now mask and gloves are mandatory almost anywhere that's public or indoors including transport and shopping seniors over $65.00 and those people who are in high risk groups must observe. isolation measures employers in moscow have been instructed to send 30 percent of their staff to work remotely now kids in
12:22 am
middle and high schools have switched to the distance learning a couple of weeks ago and they will they continue studying from home until at least the 22nd of november no restaurants bars and nightclubs while they continue operating their open in the russian capital but for contact tracing reasons old customers must register using a q.r. code system now a moscow mayor sergei said the iranian says that despite the fact that the city was able to prevent a major outbreak the situation is far from stable. but because of that we don't see stabilization and a certain level. dynamics of 1000 cases are continuing to grow again we do see tougher measures are brought up to full up to what we're not yet proposing to this teacher healthcare system is coping. so with the thousands infected russians are expecting that
12:23 am
a vaccine will be available for everyone very soon it's just putting the vaccine that's going through final polls trial stage are right now is meant to be the 1st russian vaccine that will be available for everyone it's said maker says that it will be available soon as a medicine. i suppose within the next 2 weeks we may expect the vaccinations in moscow in the moscow region to increase this is what is called mass vaccination everything is going according to plan by the end of november we can expect tough a 1000000 doses of the vaccine to be rolled out among the population and in december this figure will be 3 times higher. so our courting to the manufacturers than the number of vaccine will eventually grow to at least $15000000.00 doses per month and whether it's a near perfect record so far sputnik the that scene had already garnered interest
12:24 am
in other countries like argentina hungry venezuela to name just a few meanwhile another russian vaccine had already been registered and is now hot on the heels of sputnik the and its final registration is also expected very soon with the latest on the situation in russia our correspondent in mind cos right thank you. well to cope with the growing number of infections bosco's opened a number of field hospitals on his russian channel went to check out conditions on . our polling. shows the. floor for. almost 2. years of. the 2nd week how is a different from the 1st i think people have become less vigilant what do you mean
12:25 am
people get used to it yes people got used to it but here are those who refuse to believe there are 2 groups now almost those who are extremely concerned about coronavirus know what it is who lost their loved ones dick and those who say you were all liars in the summer we relaxed let ourselves go and here you are and what we're seeing the consequences of this in autumn no one need only relax because there were some objective reasons for their lives or were we just being stupid we know we are not stupid we are just human beings many temporary 1000 hospitals were set up in moscow 5 in all them can accommodate over a 1000 patients approximately one 3rd to develop have sort of the reporter for. the pulse of earth but it was a performance but only if the. news and it will slowly
12:26 am
be shown some ventilators has the survival rate grown since march and the 4 patients on a ventilator it hasn't changed much what is the rate 25 percent however our approach has changed a lot or them for us now placing a patient on a ventilator is a last resort when all other possible treatments are exhausting for them so what i'm really from there up to this is that the feeling is almost still middle of the word comparable at sort of the current into. issue over here with the ship produced results. they came with them was meaningless what the hell has to hospitals work changed since march when it comes to sudden a star on the one hand the team has gained confidence in their actions but on the other hand everyone is exhausted they did when will you be able to get back to normal routine work because we expect the 3rd wave in the spring the usual season for all viruses so we hope this wave will be less powerful when it comes to the
12:27 am
