russia pledges to sanctions against france and germany over the alleged nerve agent poisoning of russia's foreign minister suggests that the ground, the critic may have been given a talk to outside the country. we have every reason to believe that what happened to him in terms of chemical warfare each was getting into his body, could have happened in germany or on the plane in which she was flown to the charity hospital with news that corona virus vaccine could soon be ready for release is giving me hope, but it's made me too rich countries or ones that like being priced out of the brink of censorship, flags in our documentary on us of groups as potentially offensive. we hear from the

film's producer. we have to fold notification system in place for this particular documentary, and that is where this is something i heard, i think so the capital of armenia is rocked by more unrest. the fury over a peace deal with azerbaijan shows no sign of abating. others refugees, flood in from the war zone in to get a party spoken with one woman about her ordeal. i didn't want to leave my home, but my daughter said, mom, i'm pretty sick of my children. i left there . thanks for joining us here on r.t. and the prominent kremlin critic, alexina valmy could have been targeted with a nerve agent after leaving russia. that's the claim of russia's foreign minister

sergey lavrov. speaking at a video conference with journalists, the diplomat stressed in a valley had tested negative for toxins, while in the country. if a national reports, it seems russia has had enough after months of what most go. so as groundless accusations. foreign minister sergei lavrov says in a volley could have been poisoned after he left hospital in russia. lucy is just the one you pull out, but we have every reason to believe that what happened to him in terms of chemical warfare agents getting into his body could have happened in germany were on the plane and was she was flown to the charity hospital? exactly. how else can the sudden appearance of toxic materials in the vollies samples be explained? he stressed the results were clear when he was in arms. that's according to russian doctors who we need. treated him and several russian laboratories. it's only often a volley was taken to a lean that we heard about traces of navi chalk from germany 1st,

then friends in sweden despite there being no solid evidence proven it. russia was very quickly accused of using a band nerve agent and punished with these sanctions pick them up. there was very clearly an assault and an assassination attempt that was made on russian soil against a russian opponent, with a chemical agent of business related in russia. and therefore, it is on russia to give indispensable clarification that we will have to draw from the information that russia provides the consequences all its refusal to provide tariff occasion i call on russia to do more to investigate this case. a key such as this must have consequences. the e.u. therefore, reserves the right to impose sanctions. russia's accusing, now its western partners have been unreliable and is now ready to respond with mirror sanctions. it is difficult for me to understand the motives of our german

partners. i already told this to her combust, and i can repeat this. it's not a secret that we see how germany took the role of a leader in the new escalation of relations with the russian federation. there will of course be a response to the sanctions. and since germany was the driving force behind these e.u. sanctions over the nerve on the case. and since these sanctions directly affects high ranking staffers of the russian president's administration, we will respond in kind all russian requests for proof or any alleged date or were poll lightly denied, so immersed is not how much i would like to reiterate that we do not expect the bearer of the bad news, namely us to be criticized, it would be better to deal with the news itself. we have informed b o, p c, w n, n overnight. zation of the russian side can approach to ask further questions., ironically, one, addressing the o.p.c. w., russia was told to go back and ask germany, which made moscow doubt the organizations motives. i will be blunt. the o.p.c. w.'s technical secretary at is increasingly turning into

a tool in the west and which is being used to exert informational and political pressure on countries that fail to toe the line. this conclusion is backed by the watchdogs involvement in and russian campaigns early it with the script case. and now with the alleged poisoning of alexina vone and now russia. 8 says it may consider leaving the o.p.c. w. . so the ball is in europe's court. on the very 1st furlong, an internal flight in russia in august the aircraft he was on made an emergency landing in the city of homs. he was taken to hospital and put into an induced coma samples were sent to several russian labs. none of them found traces of any talk since there was an airlift into germany where he was treated at a specialist clinic in berlin. our guest discuss the role of tit for tat sanctions in the effort. i think patience is driving the search the breaking point more school. as i see sanctions on our various people inside russia. it sounds as though

germany, russia, there are very coarse economic links and it would not be the interest of either country to get in. so situation, lose or use a damaged germany or allies very much gas supplies from russia. and i think both countries will want to be seen because economic cooperation there who play and the whole plot on of army is shaming. germany is doing a lot of accusations against russia, but is not delivering evidence. so i'm very critical to what the handling of that case bided to him and political class by the government. and i'm fully with the russian authorities who demand stronger evidence. we are in a, in a spiral of sanctions. and i do in thi, where this might lead to on the one hand we have to enter russian sanctions, which are seen widely as ridiculous and unfair even in the german public,

not in the political class. but among the majority of the people, there is no support for do sanctions. and now russian is doubling. we're doing take fortec. i understand that russia is now sick of accusations which are most ridiculous. but if they're devoted lead to 2 new countermeasures against russia, it would be to your purpose of what we want. so it's a dangerous game. my suspicion and indeed hope is that the sanctions and the noise about the o.p.c. w. is a cover for the fact that the pipeline will go ahead. that's my feeling right now. we haven't got to the point where the construction of the pipeline has been definitively abandoned. it hasn't been completed, but it hasn't been definitively abandoned. and so i suspect that the german political class is finding a way to save face. in other words, to put symbolic sanctions on russia to up the ante on the diplomatic level,

but probably my guess is to complete the pipeline. artie's entendres sat down with the kremlin spokesperson to me to prescribe off their wide ranging discussion. touched upon then develop a case the exclusive interview will be airing in full throughout the day. here's a preview, musing to do for you. we are interested in the investigation of all the circumstances of what happened if we want to know the truth. so we said, please help us if you have information that we do not have, please share it with us. but no one wanted to cooperate. sometimes it seems that the patient does not want that truth to be out himself. and i regret the world doing it because sometimes it seems the patient is not that sick. one minute when there are a lot of questions about his illness too. and if he is ill, we need to know how bad and whether his disease can fade and come back. well,

you have to agree that there are more questions than answers. as the world waits for a viable covert vaccine finding a job isn't the only challenge the other is making it accessible or rich countries can afford to stockpile drugs. poor ones can lack the specialist storage equipment that's needed. r.t. shiela davies key picks up the story within hours of pharmaceutical giant pfizer and by own tech announcing there could be $1000.00 vaccine was 90 percent effective that you swooped in and signed on the dotted line. and europe wasn't alone. massive,, deals have also been struck with the u.s. the u.k., egypt, pan, canada, and new zealand, leading some n.g.o.s to question whether this is just a vaccine for rich nations. it's worrying that phase a bio when tech has already struck deals with rich countries for more than

a 1000000000 doses of its vaccine, leaving less than a quarter of its projected supply for the rest of the world. big pharma profits must not be prioritized over the health of billions. now, the european commission has been clear. member states can decide what to do with their vaccine doses, and that includes the option of to meeting them to lower and middle income countries. the u. is unlikely to help a lot because it is in deep trouble itself in many poor countries are not going to be able to be all the supply expensive coaching infrastructure and storage on time to deliver the missing. this vaccine needs to be stored in minus 70 degree celsius, requiring a special freezer of the type that isn't widely available even in europe and america. meaning countries will have to build deep freeze storage and transportation networks from scratch to keep the vaccine from becoming useless. its

production is costly, its component is unstable. it also requires called chain transportation and has a short shelf life. the requirement for extremely cold temperatures is likely to cause spoilage, a lot of vaccine. the price tag in building these and the difficulties in administrating the required 2 shots within a month, may be too much of a burden for my nations, leaving them essentially frozen out. some n.g.o.s have called on follow on tech, to clarify how the vaccine will be made accessible outside high income countries. and they want the firms to make their vaccine technology available via a w h o scheme. so billions of doses can be produced as quickly. and this cheaply as possible. now that's unlikely because when the scheme was launched, pfizer made its feelings clear, i think is nonsense. and at this point of time,

it's also dangerous. there's a giant effort right now happening to find solutions. the risks we're taking represent billions of dollars and the chances of developing something is still not very good. and adding insult to injury the day. the vaccine was announced, the c.e.o. of fine, so many $5600000.00 worth of company stock. now pfizer says that this was a scheduled transaction once the stock hit a certain value, but for many this was a cold shower. of a reminder, the big pharma is also big money. so a vaccine for coated 19 may be closer, which of course is good news. well, for those who can at least afford it, i say, centralize profit seeking the theory of home with market in some because the last country to be called that really determines when the pandemic is going to the one who pay for it getting worse. i mean, we can't complain much,

but the point is really, if it is eventually optimal for them to leave all these poor countries untreated because we could eventually travel back to the bric countries. at the same time. profit incentive shouldn't be in the mind, the world's greatest invention and treatment by a lot by products. a new medical study has added to the urgency of finding a vaccine. it found that catching code can correlate with developing mental disorders. the study in question was run by the university of oxford. it found that one in 5 coded patients go on to develop mental health issues within 3 months of testing positive. the analysis was based on 69000000 u.s. medical records of more than 62000 of the cases involve coronavirus. the majority of disorders attending covert are characterized by feelings of worry or fear in some cases strong enough to make everyday life seem simply unbearable. they include

adjustment disorder, post-traumatic, stress disorder, panic attacks, insomnia, even dementia. we talked about this with max tack a co-author of the study. the short answer is that we don't know yet, and we have 2 years to do more research to find out, you know, we can start to speculate about what might be the reasons. and i think there might be 2 main reasons. one is psychological. the other one is biological, the psychological one is quite intuitive. it is, you know, people suffer with the 19 which is quite scary in itself and the fear of having a potentially life limiting in this might cause things like anxiety and depression . and then there's also a possible biological explanation, which is that it is possible that sask of to say the very virus that causes of it 19 my get into the brain. we know that some british do we don't know yet as far as i know where the source code to does. but it's possible that it does. and in that way, it might, it might be affecting the brain and damaging the brain if you will,

within the biological explanation is also an inflammatory explanation. so we know that too, as a virus, causes an information throughout the body that can be, can expand well beyond the lungs. and it may be that, that inflammatory response also involves the brain. and if that's the case, that in my view that the inflammation to the immune response of the body mount against the infection might be the cause of the psychiatric illness. given that there's going to be more people suffering with mental illness as a result of 19, we need to make sure that there is service is provided for those people in therapy provided for the people. we know the things that he depression, for instance, for example, is all treatable, diseases. most people that we receive treatment for anxiety, depression do get better. and so it's very important that those treatments are available to all that need them. during the pandemic still, or youtube flags up,

an anti documentary about the activists in the us is potentially offensive, and it proved is quite happy to simulate content with such warnings. you get a reaction from the film's producer after the join me every thursday on the alex salmond show. and i'll be speaking to us from the world of politics, sports business, i'm showbusiness. i'll see you then. welcome

back. watching on t.v. documentaries can be an upsetting experience, at least if you warnings are to be believed in america from both the extreme left and right as being flagged as potentially offensive is

a preview. the biggest political events of the last 4 years is happening amid the coronavirus been arrested, and the level of civil unrest sparked by the death george floyd's end of the radical groups on both sides of the political spectrum. here was only ok. what's about if you want a war to deal with us we're going to meet these groups and their leaders to find out how far they're ready to go, to fight for what they believe the stupid for this country. although different versions of the warning for the documentary depends on the language settings, russian speakers are told, the material could frighten or shock some uses for english. speaking views, it's branded, quote, offensive, or inappropriate to some audiences and to what you have to sign and improve your age by code, exactly in vegas, but with the creator of the work. of course,

it's not exactly the kids' content. it is about american radical groups and people who are having to involved in the protest movements that is on the rise, especially in this days and months before the election. but i think in that, in this documentary, there is nothing that is overkill or over the top. and for me, it is really weird and strange why it was flagged and especially the way it was flagged. so we have to fold notification system in place for this particular documentary, and that is word, this is something unheard of. i think when as we were mentioning there, you actually have to log in. so for me personally, you know, i tried to just open up you tube, google it, and open it up and look at it. and it said you have to sign in. i don't have a youtube account, which means that certain people are not going to be able to access this movie. whereas i looked at what i just searched in youtube for one of the groups that you said was in the film, the boogaloo boys. there's plenty of documentaries of news stories about this group

where they're talking about their doctrine where they're standing there with guns. 5 and you think it would be about the same thing? is that the sort of content that's in the movie, it's these men talking about their beliefs? pretty much so. so yeah, we spoke to the members of boogaloo movement. these are how they are. and guys who are not afraid to come out to protest, although none of them are criminals of the laws in, in that any possible way. so it's not that we were talking with, you know, bad people or criminals. no, they are just regular citizens, but they are having involved in protests, but it's not against the law. right. in the u.s. . would you say that anything they spoke about would have been considered radical? i wouldn't say so. some of the things that they were managed are quite disturbing if you think about it, because they were talking about the looming civil conflict in the us about the deep

division and polarization that is taking place in the country about the probable outcome, the revolution, whatever that means but it's not that they were you know, getting into any kind of specifics and we have, we have a special waiver for the film saying that just watch out guys 3 might be some disturbing content. so we told radio now instead to your audience, we've asked you to explain why that documentary was labeled, potentially offensive. we're awaiting the reply. it's not the 1st example avanti, material. flagged the line before the u.s. election. twitter, one of our reports is misleading, meaning that it couldn't be shown to the house rules against manipulating or interfering in elections. but in fact, that video was an account of ballot fraud allegations that have been made by the trump campaign. and that will be widely reported elsewhere. independent journalist, it is his view on the way that videos are being censored on major among platforms. this is crazy. this come last too far before. busy as you say, i mean if you put

a blur or a nudity on facebook or a trickster at the office, it was stopped immediately. fine, no problem. but now they venture into political world. there are other things that you can say and those that you can't expression it if it comes from our t.v. . it comes from russia. everybody knows that tome, every american. that's so an assault rifle and a submachine gun in the cupboard. there are too many weapons in america, and when you have hot heads on the left or on the right, you know, in the streets, ready to fight each other. it's really dangerous for that moxie. and this must be shown so that the people reliance how far and there are trees going to jump. guys are certainly very young who are doing to the job of selecting what is good or bad . i don't know really about all this relatively new to politics, to the all-time politics or maybe they don't really know what they do. it is just

the beginning of censorship own being put in place in america, especially for russia use to mean to armenia. now where the country's prime minister is fighting for political survival after signing a peace deal with azerbaijan, the armenian capital, yet a van's been gripped by days of unrest with the protesters there. calling for the prime minister's head to roll. crowds amassed outside government buildings on thursday, amid a heavy police presence, multiple arrests were made. demonstrators are furious about the terms of the peace deal, according to which azerbaijan hold on to its military gains. maybe is obliged to hand over 3 districts by the end of the month, something many armenians simply see as a humiliating loss. local reporter jonas in turn to this report from the heart of the protests, the police are trying to approach her is wrong approach. primary around 2000 protesters were here yesterday, 3000 similar probably

a bit smaller crowd yesterday,, but there's also reports of protests across the city outside the n.s.f., the national state security offices, flood parliament itself. the protest is largely organized by opposition parties, although only 2 of them are in power. the 17, it's called on the protests, and called for the prime minister nicola passing on to resign since his deal was made on monday with the by john, which has been 3. mr. tory of why these protesters there are $90000.00 ethnic armenians have fled. the recent hostilities in the disputed nagorno-karabakh region, many of those left in the wake of the deal, and it became clear their homes and villages would be handed over to buckaroo makeshift centers with volunteers and aid workers have been created to help accommodate them. some of those fleeing a found shelter in homes of total strangers in armenia, you guessed on of reports, at least so scrawled in ash we built our dreams. we wanted our dreams to come true,

but after 30 years it's war again. again, everything is destroyed. there aren't many places in the world where peace spells torment, but nagorno-karabakh is one of them. the truce between armenia and azerbaijan hasn't brought any relief for those who fled the war, but none are didn't want to run, not at the beginning, at least, but did for the sake of her children. yet as we're dealing with the 1st bombing, i walked the children and we went to our neighbor's basements. we're in an area where there are no bomb shelters. i didn't want to leave my home, but another siren my daughter said mom, they're coming for the sake of my children. i left stepanek at 9 our 2 care of the kids will, while she's holding back tears. a little dude who runs around as if war has never been a feature of a young life. finding a home in armenia has never been a challenge. people weren't just welcoming. they were actively searching for

refugees to give them shelter about the bomb, which i said something needs to be done. and i started looking for family to help. and they found me, they found me and i found them. and they have been living with me since october 1st, as none are, was following the war from afar. at 1st, everything seemed bright, just as if victory was around the corner. but then troubling news from her husband on the front line was the 1st sign that all was not well in her homeland. the scars of all that has been said that the as there by john hughes were waiting outside the city to attack. and that night a drone attacked a car in which he and other military personnel were and he reached and his relatives took him to the hospital. but he wanted to go back and fight. and now he isn't stupid, back at the peace deal, which for many looks too much like surrender. karabakh refugees, like a hammer blow, says the by journey's will never give them a chance at co-existing. my outstanding, my relatives lived in had root. it was very scary. they were in the basement until

mid october, but they were lucky enough to leave there and escaped. my other friend lived. she lost her home and her husband, and she has no idea how to continue living. none are as well aware of what happened and how much of new going to karabakh they have to give up and she finds it impossible to accept, but it looks like she and tens of thousands of other refugees will have no choice but to get used to it and my girls done of reporting from armenia for are to be ok . that wraps it up for this news hour. join me for updates in half an hour. what does the election results to date? tell us about the state of american politics. there was no blue wave. instead,

it was a red ripple instead of calls for reconciliation. there are those looking to punish trump supporters. one step forward 2 steps back. 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 why not allow sell. my son is officially a mouse. can rebound country per capita human history. millions of unexploded bombs still in danger. lives in this small agricultural country. jordyn wieber going to concerts happening even today, kids in laos, full victims of bombs dropped decades ago. is the us making amends for the tragedy in laos. what helped to the people need in that little land on my

own journey babies cry, a new kind of like saying entrenched babysits a man is so those that actually follow the rhythmic pattern verses mond, so you know, so where did they get that turns out she looked into it 1st, what was happening was that the babies could actually hear their mothers speech in the womb. former senate majority leader and dr. bill frist is our guest dumbass of politics. lord of the politicking, and i'm larry king. the white house for colmes offend demick hotspot, while the infected president tells americans not to let covert 19 dominate them. a candid one on one about the deadly health crisis and the presidential race. how has it up ended with former senate majority leader bill frist like he's

a heart and lung transplant surgeon and host of the podcast. a 2nd opinion, he joins me from nashville, start right there. how has this affected bill frist like? well, larry, it's affected me like every everybody else has changed my ways of communicating, you know, still been able to be very active. i've had a son and a daughter in law with coded and thankfully they came through it well and their children had an infection as well. national itself being a big hospitality town service industry town has been devastated. things are slowly coming back, but who will be probably 2nd quarter of next year before there's real by taliban back in the town. president trump has given himself an a plus for a sampling poll show about 2 thirds of american disapprove, of where you know, the president 1st our government. i would give a big day in terms of responsiveness in.
