10:00 am
yes to shape out just didn't come out today. and in game treatment equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground. and today's headlines, the creators of russia's coronavirus vaccine are preparing to start mass distribution. after phase 3 trials show, sputnik beat is 92 percent effective. angry says it's ready to buy the drug. you're not going to negotiate to go balls to buy, but you rush over your time to follow my station on the production road least part of the production too. hungry also this hour, our medium vent, their fury at their government, accusing it of capitulating to azerbaijan by signing
10:01 am
a peace deal. although the armenian prime minister says that without the troops, major losses would have been inevitable. and just a week after the us presidential election, which could be contested in court, democrats are open season on the anyone who's ever supported donald trump, some even demanding the destruction of their rivals. we have to collectively, in essence, burn down the republican party. we have to let this is our to international, bring you your live news update this hour. thanks for joining us. the developers of a russian coronavirus job. sputnik 3 have said mass vaccination a will start nationwide in just a few weeks time. after some highly promising results from face 3 trials, the publication of the interim results of the post registration clinical trials
10:02 am
that convincingly demonstrates predict the vaccines efficacy gives way to mass vaccination in russia against curve of 19 in the coming weeks thanks to the production scale up in new manufacturing sites, spirit vaccine will soon be available for a wider population. we're joined in the studio again by artist maria financial for more on this. so as we just heard, sputnik be will be rolled out nationwide. very soon apparently tell us more. yes, i think mr. ginsberg makes it very clear. russia is getting ready for mass vaccination. what an exciting news. in fact, the drug known as sputnik can be easily spread across the country and we hear that russia's sells of the broad its production grows drastically. of course, we understand that developers and scientists struggle they face some difficulties these days due to pandemic restrictions that affect the production process. but still russia plans to have $500000.00 doses in the planning to
10:03 am
start producing 6000000 doses of vaccine a month starting april. right. speaking about this vaccine, it was developed by a moskos gemmell, a research center, and it is and done a virus vaccine. and the scientists used mechanism that was developed actually in the 1950 s. . and this is why russia was quite fast, quite quick to come to this idea. so this adenovirus serves as a transportation as a vehicle to carry genetic fragment from the deadly virus. the corona, virus, that causes call that 19 disease. and it is safe for the body, but it is able to make the body believe it was in fact it and make the immune system react and to produce an antibody to the phases of its clinical
10:04 am
trials are now behind. meaning that it is proved that the vaccine is safe and it is currently on to go in phase 3 of the medical trials. and mission is to study how effective the drug is and now we are receiving quite positive, impressive results. again, saying that these are entering early results, but still very positive. breaking the 1st interim data analysis of the sputnik vaccine against that 19 phase 3 clinical trials. and the russian federation demonstrated 9 to 2 percent. there was a lot of criticism about russian vaccine with world scientific community divided on those criticizing russia for being too fast, too confident for a day to be not sufficient. and those praising russia's achievements just recently . there were 3 medics in russia's altay region. they were vaccinated,
10:05 am
and later they got a corona and the critics information to say, to point out russia's vaccine, say that, see, this is not affected at all, but you have to understand that it takes time for the vaccine to start working. it takes time for the body to learn how to react to the virus. and it could be that these 3 medics, they just didn't have that time in time enough for the vaccine to start protecting the body. and plus no one can guarantee. in fact, at this point, that the vaccine will entirely prevent you from being infected. guarantees that your body will know how to react to the virus and before him and produce a man to buy it is. but it's still not clear whether you can get in fact it and have just mild form of the disease or you will be 100 percent protected. well that would be 3 people out of home many and this all comes right after
10:06 am
a german american vaccine was actually found to be 90 percent. fact of tell us more about that. yes, we hear that the vaccine that you mentioned going to a mini and u.s. production show very positive results. it is, i think like 90 percent effective. again, these are also early results. and again, the rees criticism, and there are some critical questions that are still uncertain. for example, we don't know whether this vaccine entirely prevents infection. know whether symptomatic care is might still be a key cause for concern in the future. and there is no data on how many pretty sick from the vaccine versus those who received placebo. but we hear from the c.e.o. of the company behind these vaccines that they are going to release date within the next week. so, i mean, it is and go in proceed developing story,
10:07 am
but i think the model vaccines, the battery. so of course russia was the 1st to register vaccine against call that 19, but is not the only country to try to do it. exactly. there's no arguing that we need as many as possible cover the whole world population. but if we come back to sputnik be you actually or the placebo, i assume you're not sure. i am absolutely sure because yes, it is. what is known as double blind trial, meaning that neither doctors know, participants know whether they get placebo or a real vaccine. but i know for sure because i was so impatient actually, that wasn't supposed to know that, but i was so impatient. i got a blood test and i saw that i got one too, but it is meaning there wasn't placebo. of course. so yes, i'm one of the 10s of thousands of volunteers taking part in phase 3 of the
10:08 am
clinical trials of sputnik and i got too short already today is 53rd day of the trials, a total of 180 days. still morning to buy the doctor. i mean, they call me, they ask me, how do i feel? i remember after like 1st shot, i felt really miserable. you know, i had some fever, muscle pain and headache and out of the 2nd shot as well. but they didn't bother me at all because it didn't last long. although you know, i'm ready to pay this price to have antibodies. there's usually some sort of reaction when it comes to vaccines. so i guess that is quite expected. maria from notion of thank you for joining us in the studio with us. he tells with russia's daily corona virus infection rate topping 20000, the capital is rolling out new containment measures. restaurants and bars will have to close by 11 pm. middle schools and universities are switching to remote learning
10:09 am
and seating capacity in theaters and cinemas is limited to 25 percent. meanwhile, hungary is among the latest european countries to impose lockdowns following a dramatic surge in copa cases. there it will last at least 30 days and includes a nighttime curfew. the government is now preparing to import small quantities of russia's covert vaccine. earlier, my colleague neil harvey spoke about those plans with the hunger and foreign minister who contract a coronavirus himself and has been in quarantine for over a week. i usually run like 15 kilometers on the day. you have to reach, you know, i am tired even thinking about running. so when i do a little walk around here, i got exhausted. so it's, well, it's a virus which i would like to propose to everybody to avoid its symptoms with impacts, given that this is a global problem, one would like to think that it would be tackled better by countries coming together, working together, something that always they will know better than anyone as a foreign minister,
10:10 am
whether that's happening, having found the, the level of information exchange and cooperation. i think you're totally right. so any time international cooperation based on mutual respect, it is not. and i think political correctness judging each other during each other should be left behind. and instead of the moment that king go out their countries on the political basis, we should think about how to cooperate. that's why i think international cooperation would be extremely important when it comes to the vaccine, for example. so sometimes i have the feeling that the short of vaccines is becoming politicized, which i think should be again, we are crossing fingers for all companies and countries which are moving forward. we developing the vaccine regardless who they are. so we are interested in india,
10:11 am
american, in the european, in their russian, in the chinese, in these really vaccine development and research to be successful. because the more scenes we will have is the better, you know, shooting with everybody, including russia, of course. yeah. if this is correct of reports, that hunger is going to be buying some russian vaccines in december. but like you said, you were looking at all. busy the options, is there any concern though about how that will be met to response from other countries? because as we say, these things are often politicized lucca, this should be avoided. so now it's about the life of the people, stories. and if i am, political aspects should be left behind and these are the we understand it is realistic that indeed some small scale of the going to be launched in order to make the national national necessary clinical trials on their
10:12 am
spec in hungary. and as also the 2nd part of january, it might be realistic that food by quality from russia. but we are not only negotiate and go about simply buying vaccine from russia. we are negotiating the production or at least the part of the production to hungary. there is a company operating here in angry which has been producing for other or viruses or diseases. of course, they seem to be able to transfer their capacity in a way that they would be able to be involved in the production cycle there. meaning, the opposition is calling on the prime minister to resign after he signed a highly unpopular peace deal with azerbaijan and compassion, and spoke out after street protests and erupted in your ban against monday's truce for the dispute in a corner kind of a region. had the fighting, continued stepanek kurt martini and ask around,
10:13 am
would almost certainly have fallen thousands of our soldiers with then who found themselves surrounded. they would have been a collapse. we had to sign this agreement. hundreds of people have gathered outside parliament and yard and denouncing the pact with azerbaijan. several protesters have been detained, and a policeman has reportedly been beaten up. many armenians see the peace deal brokered by russia as a defeat. a local journalist sent us this report. has been another day of protests and caravan today. headstocks though, for the opera house and freedom square in the city center, about 2 or 3000. people attended a protest organized boy, you're starting to, you know, position politics. there were some speeches that had beginning. there were some clashes between riot police and protesters, but it really stepped aside and the protests continued. particularly off of that there was all groups among the crowd members and supporters of the i mean, for me cynical question. you know, i'm right in among us then. and i'm hearing as we said and protesters,
10:14 am
the message of the protests was always a trait, a person saying he's had a decision on monday evening to sign a peace deal with eyes ablaze wrong. and that russia has its eye and see most people i spoke to are who are furious with him and want him to resign. they want to troll on who they want to replace him and you say that we need to get rid of washing your hands of power to years ago, 200 years ago. and the revolution and most of the people i spoke to had never supported this bill. and i'm sure said that they had let him down and then moved for the purchase and move from freedom square to the public square, which was the scene of monday night, soldiers and mornings. but in protest when the building behind me the government
10:15 am
building was broken into and they say purchased, as they did about half an hour, it was heavy police presence right. place behind me, it just going away. now that they were between approaches in a building 3 or 4 lines, and it was a bright lights, and it was all pretty calm, the trance of look over the place as he tried to continue. but other than that, it was pretty calm. monday's truce followed almost 2 months of deadly fighting, claiming hundreds of lives and here and moscow, which is home to a large armenian community. people have been gathering outside the country's embassy to pay their respects and is no use for you to be dishing up shit. so you still know there are ghosts that are not particularly orci mobility for building the people who go
10:16 am
through you leave. so when you choose to think you must be doing the police with it and your brother. i mean, the people you might think it was an edition of it almost, or that despite all the weapons are not a good story. you know, all in azerbaijan, people have taken to the streets to celebrate armenians. see the truce as a defeat. many as areas regarded as a victory just like russia because i'm just saying show love for the show
10:17 am
under the new car bomb treaty, azerbaijan will hold on to its military gains, plus armenia is obliged to hand over 3 districts by the end of the month. it's been also agreed that russian peacekeepers will patrol the line of contact between opposing forces and roads linking the region to armenia, history professor peter quds, nick believes that if not for the deal, armenia would have lost a lot more. it's still a very tense situation where everybody is hoping that this ceasefire will hold and that russian peacekeeping troops will be able to do so they've brokered 3 previous cease fires, none of which help part of what this is to ation was that once the azeris then they had a possible way to attack the capital in a corner, and that would have been a much more devastating defeat for the armenians and what they came up with here.
10:18 am
so it's not a setback to the armenians, but it's not nearly as devastating as, a total defeat would have been in the u.s., the knives are out for donald trump. supporters media personalities have called for them to be named shamed and sacked by some even calling for the destruction of the republican party. if asked to lose, for all his enablers, have to live. they have to, we have to collectively, in essence, burn down the republican party. we have to level them because if there are survivors, if there are people who weathered this storm, they will do it again. threats like these aren't only being heard from rank and file liberals. some of the loudest voices are saying if you don't deal with the liberal program, good luck finding a job. security sympathize with those dealing with losing is not easy, but one has to think not only about what's best for the nation peaceful transfer of power, but how any future employers might see you can't define during adversity. caitlin
10:19 am
collins just reported white house staff are starting to look for jobs. employers considering them should know there are consequences for hiring anyone who helped trump attack american values. find out how at the trump accountability project, the trump accountability project mentioned there was just recently found it likely with the goal of naming and shaming those who work for trump's administration so they can find any more work. congresswoman alexandria causing a cortez also raised a lot of eyebrows with a tweet singing a similar to is anyone archiving these trump sycophants for when they try to downplay or deny their complicity in the future? i foresee decent probability of many deleted tweets writings, photos in the future. and who could forget the mainstream media trying to sabotage trump at every step of his presidency is one thing. but now many want to prosecute him. it's all very different to the message of solidarity and bringing the country together that we heard in biden's victory speech to make progress. we have to stop
10:20 am
treating our opponents as enemies. there will be no blue states and red states when we were just the united states of america. maybe a supporters got the wrong idea because repressing red votes out of existence won't necessarily make them blue. all that it's really, terry enrage, has been coming from the left, submit or else get fired, get banned, shut up. it's ridiculous and yes kind of scary because they're turning violent. are you saying people should lose jobs or not get future jobs based on their political beliefs? that's right. of the 3rd reich. nice career you have there be a shame if something you know happened to it and not a tool unhinged person. trump supporters. the conservatives have been cancelled in bandon blacklisted the famed and smeared relate leslie for the last 4 years, especially by mainstream media. by far left agitators,
10:21 am
people losing their jobs for simply supporting the president people having their homes, dogs, people being attacked from supporters are, i've been through all of this. they survived the last 4 years. they're actually when i've been seeing more and bolder, to get outspoken to stand up, to not be afraid of these tactics anymore. but democrats, i believe a lot of people do tend to have that we'd have a plan for a permanent democrat majority in this country. so republicans could ever get elected in federal elections in this country and, and they can, you know, sort of march in there, there of one party socialist to tell terry and utopia the european commission chief has said disagreements with the us will not simply disappear when joe biden takes over the white house. he spoke right after the new imposed $4000000000.00 worth of import tariffs on american goods. i believe that divisions can always be breached once can be healed,
10:22 am
but some shifts in priorities and perceptions. run much deeper than one pulley to sion. a one at ministration and they will not disappear because of one election. ursula vonda lane has essentially been outlining what she sees as the e.u. use priorities. its interests to keep this transatlantic relationship between the e.u. and the us strong and make it stronger. but if you listen to her speech, it really does seem that just before joe biden comes into office, she is looking to take the bull by the horns and it doesn't take too much to, to read what she says as being a list of the man she talks about the digital economy making that farah, she talks about tax, in general, she talks about strengthening organizations such as the un, the world health organization and the world trade organization. all things that quieten will now have to look at when he becomes the next u.s.
10:23 am
president. now this is all in the context of the fact that the e.u. earlier this week decided to slap $4000000000.00 worth of retaliatory taxes on the u.s. products coming into the e.u. . now this is in relation to a long running to speak that's been going on in regards to subsidies given to airbus and boeing and trump himself. during his term as president has been fear, eous about these subsidies. now had been thought that the e.u. was going to hold back on these retaliatory taxes wait for that election to play out. and then if it was a biden administration sort of will reopen negotiations or a softly softly approach. but essentially it hasn't done that. and even u.s. exporters are sounding the alarm edition alternatives will be a major blow to the u.s. spirits industry. especially kraft to distillers who are struggling to regain their footing, following the closings of distillery tasting rooms, restaurants and bars due to cope with 19. well,
10:24 am
it's not gone down massively well in europe, either the federation of wine exporters describe these retaliatory taxes. it's been dangerous and in comprehensible said that that raised the risk for them to the situation is now extremely worrying. it is more than ever necessary to get out of this interminable conflict, because that is the only way to end these taxes. and there is a dispute as a european level as well. germany is being more conciliatory towards the us. france seems to be taking a harder line all the while from delaine is trying to portray the e.u. as having sort of a joined up thinking a stance on this by attacking 1st. there is this question as to where the countries and you are really formed in one line behind that or whether this could backfire, not necessarily in the long term, but in the short term to weaken our bring and live former foreign minister of
10:25 am
italy, franco frattini for more on this now, the new e.u. tariffs were announced just after it became clear, joe biden would win the u.s. election. what do you make of the timing of that? well, it is a long story. we are not talking about reasons even though you united states used to it relations there. i remember myself during the thousands of president obama men attends from the e.u. or from the united states to find it consolatory measures to finally scottish, the common free trade space between europe and united states. no success, we didn't succeed. so it is not with the state and publication, nor the 1st attack to force the incoming president to be
10:26 am
that we see more flexible the president. last, but i'm sure there president biden, if can refer, think we'll be dealing with his relations trade relations with e.u. . he had a different way of comparing with president trussell. the problem is of the table, the relations of you with your needs, isn't it in the imagine, very sensitive like for an entry to long table. and i think transatlantic relations are stick. if we are completely unable to mean any progress but increasing dourif, introducing wriggly asians and so on. and so for during the 4 years of president trump, that europe has been under consider by the united states. and now
10:27 am
i think we have new roles. the new president will be paid more attention to the need to restore, also in the field of foreign trade, a decent level of relations. well, and european officials have said they're ready to remove the tariffs. if the u.s. does the same, do you expect biden to do that? not immediately. president biden, i remember is a said president obama in forbes, but i remember also the many dust your sick jobs and productive your t.v. . it is in america, i would say, who will be before him if not, and soon the obstacle to reach an agreement was hugo. if you will remember, come of the deep america. you've got the state, the not so. i'm not naive. i done seen the president by, but we'll be able to remove immediately,
10:28 am
overnight he carries and we got him. but i'm sure there will be a new negotiation or a new perspective on negotiations between the 2 sides with insurers of the ocean. that would be more promising for the last 40 years. pm leaders, including the italian prime minister, have been quick to come direct, congratulate joe biden on his electorate and election victory saying that they're looking forward to working with him. do you think that that will translate into a warmer transatlantic relationship as you were touching on there? well, i think, you know, the president drug that was the borders in a very unpredictable way, very few in the war could have predicted that. but the end, the result is if president obama, as i believe,
10:29 am
will be the president going to see the throne for the general this year. i think he will undertake a new initiative by telling clean his art. honestly, you wrote much more the president from the president, trump even put him out the car and go if you're a jeep relations at level, don't need to even do not consider europe as a whole one, considering individual member states of europe is whom it had to google to or less good relations president biden, least with drugs other think it will be if you will, of enough political strands to do so. or can see your e-mail led along with joe ritchie into housing because as you know very well, there is still this future pool of least 2 seats in the senate aide. that will
10:30 am
prove to be the signs easy to get a majority for the republicans in the senate 8 or not. so all very much will depend on the political composition of the others. you see the argument of not the series, but only the good will of president biden and build outs. i knew him when he used to be the vice president or president obama. i think you would be more open to moore's european union than it was president nato has of course, been a sticking point as you are saying there. but another key issue has been the iran nuclear deal. the e.u. has tried to keep that alive, maintaining trade with iran, despite threats from the trumpet, ministration. could we see a softer approach when biden moves into the white house? well, you will try also and be is to make some progress.
