headline stories authorities in the u.s. state of georgia border, a local recount margin of victory in several other states in the presidential election, also ahead riot police fired tear gas in the armenian capital. crowds accuse the government of capitulating to azerbaijan by signing a peace deal. but the armenian prime minister is saying the truth

would have been lost on the creators of a russian corona, virus vaccine distribution. after phase 3 trials showed its 92 percent effective. hungary stated, it's ready to purchase the drug. we are not going to negotiate simply by russia. we are not actually part of the production to hungary just a few moments into a brand new day here in moscow, thursday, november the 12th pleasure to have your company this hour. i mean, unknown. it's been confirmed that the u.s. state of georgia will hold an election recount the local secretary of state making

not announcement, citing joe biden margin of victory over donald trump killam up and takes us through what it could mean for the presidential election. well, georgia is a state was 16 votes in the u.s. electoral college, and usually it is considered to be a red state that generally just goes routinely for republicans in national elections. however, at this point, it's a swing state. and in the count of the votes, the 1st count joe biden had a very narrow lead. now at this point, we've got george's secretary of state coming forward and saying that a hand recount is taking place at the request of the trump team. mathematically, you have to do a full recount because the margin is so close right now. it's $14101.00, it's a big process to be a methodical process, and it will be a process that i'm sure that the replay of oversight. we want to make sure that both parties have the opportunity to observe this because we understand the stakes

are higher. now georgia's law allows for a recount of the votes. if the margin is less than point 5 percent allows for the candidate to request a recount. now at this point, the trump campaign is seeking a recount in pennsylvania as well as in wisconsin. now there are some states around the country where if the margin is close enough, there's an automatic recount to the campaign of one candidate or other doesn't actually have to request it. however, in georgia, it is being requested by the trump camp. they're seeking one in pennsylvania and wisconsin. it hasn't yet happened there. now at this point, we've got doug collins, who is heading up the trump campaign's efforts for a recount in georgia. this is what he had to say. we had to monday in the fool hand counts of every ballot each and every county in georgia due to widespread allegations of voter irregularities, issues in $3000.00 machines and poll, which axis. now georgia only has 16 electoral votes. so if georgia were to flip in

trump's favor, it ultimately would not change the outcome of the election. it's not enough votes to take the election away from biden sense the vote on november 3rd, republicans and trump reporters. have been talking about irregularities in the possibility of fraud. they've talked about possible ballot harvesting possible malfeasance with mail in ballots. and u.s. media has largely dismissed their concerns as outrageous and considers joe biden to be the winner of the election. however, trump supporters seem quite emboldened. they continue to argue that trump is the actual winner of the election in order for that to be the case. they would have to show some pretty, pretty widespread fraud and irregularities at this point. we still have a contested election here in the united states and kill him up and took us through what's happening in the state of georgia. one of the other states where the president is seeking a recount is nevada. and a whistleblower who has no come forward claiming to have worked for an election department in the state. his testimony appears to corroborate at least some of team

trump's claims of fraud. i personally witnessed of people handing multiple unopened mail in ballots to 2 of the people who then opened and filled out the ballots against the side of the biden. harris van, we're not allowed to talk to them on the observers were not supposed to say anything ever to the we should stress that none of the fraud claims have been proven, but there is no shortage of speculation swirling online. a conservative activist has posted photos claiming to show up 70 ballots requested, returned by dead people in the state of michigan, another facebook post that's gone viral suggest the person received 2 ballots in the state of pennsylvania. plenty more such allegations to see ballots. my name, different versions, one hand, my middle name and my last name i said with you can't see anything. the

closest desk. ok. let's put things in perspective. the close 6, the closest desk was 30 feet. the force of this test was probably 150 feet. however, officials in different states claim no significant election fraud was noted. pennsylvania had a free fair and secure election and the geishas of fraud and illegal activity have been repeatedly debunked and dismissed by the courts. hoaxes and nonsense don't buy into these things. the ups evil shows how trump's persistence and unfounded claims of fraud and refusal to concede the elections of biden are dividing, not just the country, but his own party. so where this out leave us well, earlier i asked a member of cast for their views on the allegations of play. unprecedented thing was done in this election, which was to pause legitimate voting in states where trump had obvious leagues and,

miraculously only with absentee mail in ballot votes being counted k., that's the only thing that made the difference in the state had 100 percent turnout for biden that's not equally impossible, even with the historical bent that goes towards democrats and in favor of democrat candidates on mail in ballots. and historically, there, whether people think trump is a blowhard, whether they think he's got hot blood irrelevant. is he the legitimately elected president? and did by then cheat. if those 2 things can't be answered conclusively, we need to investigate. president trump's made a lot of claims are for all this past 7 days. but as far as i can see, he's not exactly backing them. a concrete proof is a. well there's, there's tons of evidence and you can't possibly sigh all of the cases there's, there's harvesting their ballots being dispensed with. it's name on it. there are, well, it's been cast by dead. people like people that lived through the civil war. i mean,

we have ballots. i mean, i assume they've been sent in 3 and 4 in the morning. they're being counted without any observers being up witness the count. or there is tons of evidence that there this is going on is can't. there's a laundry list that he can't possibly sidedness beat. no one thought that donald trump would win the 1st time. perhaps. perhaps there really was a real determination that he could go ahead and do something become president for a 2nd time. and a lot of people out there did not want to repeat. well, let's be clear. i think a lot of people thought that presidential had chance of being reelected. but let's also be clear when we're talking about this feckless idea voters fraud. there is more chance of being struck by lightning after surviving a plane crash than there has been. this is a voting fraud in this country. there are so much evidence. you're going to be blown away. that would be evidence. you're absolutely wrong. all we have is the,

are these no hard evidence donald has every single right to challenge any outcome that he wants soon he can call for recounts in any state that he wants to. but if he doesn't have evidence, the judicial process is going to take place and he's going to lose. so this is just another continuation of a presidency that's been ripe with fantastical lies. and really making a mockery of the american democratic system in an effort to try to hold on to power . that is simply not his anymore. the american people have rejected. donald trump as president of the united states. another story we're closely following today. the armenian opposition is calling on the prime minister to step down after the signing of a highly unpopular peace deal with street protests are now raging in your avan against monday's truce for the disputed new corner cutting back region. and these latest pictures we've received, you can see police firing tear gas on the crowd. throughout the day,

hundreds of people gathered outside parliament and you're of on the non-singing, the pact with azerbaijan. as a capitulation, several protesters were detained on the police officer, reportedly beaten up or down off, is out the protest. so if you 100 people are still occupying the street right next to the armenian parliament, if you look close enough, you'll notice a very heavy police presence. essentially, the security forces have khujand, almost the entire perimeter around the building of the national assembly. here to prevent the protesters from potentially potentially from breaking in. also a lot of special vehicles here, you can see them down there as well. and just around the corner over there, we noticed at least one would say, can and you can clearly hear how high the emotions out, how very passionate and heartbroken people are here because of that document that was signed because they don't see it as a peace treaty they see it as a surrender,

and a lot of people who have talked to here, they are saying that the incumbent prime minister, nicol passion is a traitor. stone you call pushing and betrayed us here, traitor. he's a peak. how he could do this to us. i have friends in karbala, a policeman. there is a friend of mine. i worried about him. you thought there is a bad people who are gathered here are those who love their homeland. who believe that this decision is a step in the back for all armenians pushing on his surrender our lands in secret and is now hiding. he's not going to come out and explain his actions yet. he in turn is essentially saying that he had no other choice and that had he not signed this particular document, then it would have been worse. here's how he explained his heartbreaking decision. had the fighting, continued the kind of curt march to me and ask around, 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, but for most here, unity is impossible. as long as nicole passion and, and his government are in power to make is done of reporting from yerevan in armenia. see all monger people condemning the chris where those had 1st hand experience of the cold flick. we heard from one woman who was forced to flee that week. these is the year for i left a car about 3 weeks ago. all my family are there. the bombs fell outside our house . there were children there, and they didn't know where to go. what to do, then they realized they were, was happening. children died young boys for what to give away or land. this treaty is an attack on all armenians. when the prime minister signed it, he betrayed us. if we were willing to give up the slant, we wouldn't have sent so many young men to war. i want to quit. if it goes on like this, who lose armenia,

there will be another genocide. my brothers in karbala are soldiers who are refusing to either pos because this is our homeland a very different atmosphere and also by shelling where people are taking to the streets in celebration while armenian. see the truce is at the feet. many is here, is regarded as a victory garden truck, see some of the main aspects of the new car about treaty ben. the most contentious issue being that azerbaijan holds on to its military gains, plus or mania is obliged to over 3 districts by the end of the month. it's also

been agreed that russian peacekeepers will patrol the line of contact between opposing forces on the road, linking the region to armenia. virus vaccine is up to enter production after some encouraging test results. we've got that story for you right after the break. please

joe biden. to be president elect come on group, that's not how it works. final vote terminations, and we aren't there yet once the election. and what is the possibility? the country, the election was still quarter of an hour into the program. welcome back with russia's daily corona, virus infection rate topping 20000. the capital is rolling out new containment

measures. starting this friday, restaurants bars, night clubs will all have to close by 11 pm. colleges and high schools are switching to remote learning and seating capacity in theaters and cinemas is limited to 25 percent of the spike, the developers of the russian crew of ours jealous. when we have said a mass vaccination will start nationwide in just a few weeks time, a story my colleagues will take us through in a moment. it's full of some highly promising results from advanced phase 3 trials. the publication of the interim results of the poster distribution in clinical trials to convincingly demonstrates vaccines efficacy gives way to mass vaccination in 19, in the coming weeks. thanks to the production scale up in new manufacturing sites will soon be available for wanted to put faces of its clinical trials are now behind me,

and that it is proved that the vaccine is safe and it is currently on to go in phase 3 of the medical trials, it's 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, the vaccine against 19 phase 3 clinical trials, and the russian federation demonstrated 9 to 2 percent. now this comes just after a joint project between pfizer and bio inter. their vaccine has proven to be over 90 percent effective. tell us more about that. yes, we hear that the vaccine that you mentioned, it's a joint germany american production indeed shows very good results. again, these are early results, interim results, but still the developers say it was 90 percent effective, but not everybody is fully convinced because some critical questions still remain

unanswered. for example, whether this vaccine entirely prevents infection whether symptomatic areas might still be a cause for concern in the future, or there was no information, in fact, even on the frequency of side effects or how severe they were. and we have few details on the vaccines safety profile, in fact, and we hear from pfizer. this is one of the companies behind these facts saying that all that data is going to be released in the coming weeks. so this is an ongoing developing story, and of course there are still concerns. there are down there is criticism, just like with the russian vaccine. it's understandable, but my humble opinion is that the more vaccines the better for the world, because russia was the 1st country to register the drug, the vaccine against called the 19, but is definitely not the only country to work on the cure on the protection. 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 that for sure, because i was so impatient actually, i wasn't supposed to know that, but i was so impatient. i got blood test and i saw that i got to but 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 clinical trials of v. . 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 also 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. meanwhile, hungry is among the latest european countries to impose a lockdown following a dramatic surge in covert cases. it will last at least $38.00 days and includes a nighttime curfew. the government is now preparing to import quantities of russia's covert vaccine. an earlier my colleague neil harvey spoke about those plans with the hungary and foreign minister peter c.r. to who contracted corona virus 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 they're always, they will know better than anyone as a foreign minister, 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 what they are. so we are interested in india, american, in the european, in the 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. like you said, you were looking at all the options. is there any concern though. busy about how that will be met to response from other countries, because as we say, these things are often politicized lucca, these should be avoided. so now it's a phone. the life of the people always anytime political aspects should be left behind. and this is the fight. we understand that it is realistic that indeed some

small scale all of the be launched in order to make the national national necessary clinical trials on their aspect and hungary and as also the 2nd part of january, it might be realistic that speed by while the deep from russia, but we are not going to negotiate and go about simply buying vaccine for russia. we are not go shooting the localized nations of the production or at least the part of the production to hungary. there is a company operating here in hungary, which has been producing for other or viruses of these. of course, they seem to be able to transform their capacity in a way that they would be able to be involved in the production cycle. they hung kerry and foreign minister speaking to r.t. a lot as where we leave this hour's global news update the team just off camera

busy putting together all the latest developments and i'll be here in 30 to bring them to you to join me. and then

yes, it was full soup wolf to push through the posts of hill. but do you probable was short order cook doesn't capture a message to put have been murdered by you to go with us because all of those who do use the bulk of those dollars could be game we will see in the movie it is with the we see me all see to most news, but is the most severe. some of what is in your speech, comes off the news. the of the 20th century was thing in a revolution, the great depression and world war, the 21st is the century of mental illness. those aren't my words, that's what's the best. some psychiatry tell us. the only question is should we accept it as a fact or no. during

the vietnam war, u.s. forces also bomb to neighboring laos. it was a secret war. and for years, the american people did not know how much anticipation the mouse had rebound country per capita, all of human history. millions of unexploded bombs still in danger. lives in this small agricultural country. jordyn wieber thing going to happen. even today, kids in laos full victims of bombs dropped decades ago is the us making amends for the tragedy in laos. won't help to the people need in that little land of mines that are financial. i don't buy a i pod on a future friday as of last summer, my ex, from the future. the trucker was kaiser

was a pandemic. no, certainly no borders and as to nationalities has emerged. we don't come with the we don't have the facts seen. the whole world needs to be judged commentary prices to sentence times. we can do better, we should everyone is contributing way. but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever. the challenges create, the response has been so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we are in it together.

it was during these 10 for one with all sides. instead of talking about her this journey into you leave that up. i just sat here watching 5 minutes. you're not going home tonight. i can guarantee they won't come back to wrongful conviction when she recently. today we're going to be doing a deep dive into an issue that is fascinating exhibits to our founding, which is the phenomenon of false confessions. and my guest today is going to be jane fisher already also. currently working on 4 cases involving false confessions and each is fascinating its own way. so jane, while some full confession happened to me, and jane is an attorney who is an expert on false confessions. and so jane,

how did you get into this work? i was a public defender in manhattan here in new york city for about 3 years. and we saw a lot of police misconduct, you know, we were doing arraignments up until 1 am in the morning and you see people beat up or, you know, people whose cases get dismissed, who get no compensation. so my husband and i left the legal aid society with the hopes of doing civil rights work. my name so castle in the distinguished professor of psychology at john jay college of criminal justice. once a false confession is taken, the case is closed, nobody really can tell the difference between a good confession and one that is a problem with all of this. is that the or tactics that can be used to get innocent people. and i don't just mean vulnerable, innocent people, i mean people who are sitting around in this room to confess to crimes. they didn't commit

solution anytime you do an exoneration case where there's been a false confession, it's like trying to write a trice. everybody's already against you. the person's been convicted by a jury. the judge thinks he's guilty. the jury thinks he's guilty. now you have to convince everybody that they're wrong. so ok, so you're deeply invested in is a case of or an alien ship.
