among the stories that shape the week are historic peace deal brokered by armenia and russian military personnel are in the region. the armenians, however, taking to the streets like using the country's prime minister branding the truth in america. washington

d.c. this weekend in a short for the president with hungary becoming the 1st european country with the top stories from the past 7 days on right up to the moment developments. well, welcome to the weekly, an r t international. my names. you know me the shooting stopped in the disputed region of the corner. this week, armenia and azerbaijan signed on a historic peace deal brokered by russia, ending some 7 weeks of bloodshed, as part of the truce moscow deployed military personnel to the front line. 'd to

monitor the cease fire, what is happening in karabakh is a truly great tragedy. i want to note with great satisfaction, the outlines compromise and the agreements reached on ending the bloodshed. and i hope that all the steps we have taken recently will lead to the establishment of a long term peace for the benefit of azerbaijan and armenia. well, under the new peace deal, both sides will hold on to their current military positions. that leaves are many in control of the disputed regions. couple steps occur while azerbaijan gets the 2nd largest city of shushi, which it took just before hostilities ended. now armenia will also have to hand over 3 further districts here, here and here in the region to azerbaijan, causing a lot of consternation. meanwhile, russian peacekeepers have been deployed to the so-called chin corridor. that's the only major road link between a quarter, a car, a bike, and armenia. the russian contingent includes nearly 2000 personnel on almost 400

vehicles, specialist equipment as well. the mission will last 5 years with an automatic extension if required. meanwhile, have presented the truce in very different ways to their people. the text of the statement is unspeakably painful for me personally and for our people. i have made this decision as a result of an in-depth analysis of the military situation. this is not a victory, but there will be a defeat unless you recognize yourself as a loser. we will never recognize ourselves as losers, and this should of national unification and revival. for my part, i would like to say that i'm very glad that today we've sealed the deal to settle the years long conflict between armenia and azerbaijan, and put an end to the occupation of as a vision land. news of the truce led to widespread anger and despair in armenia, where the violent on rest in the capital. many people see their peace deal as a capitulation. i was

telling i i thank i you called pushing young, betrayed us here traitor. he's a peak. how he could do this to us. this decision is a step in the back for all armenians. i believe he exists. thank you. alison, because i'm going to get made a speech by via facebook and on television. tonight. he made

a federalist last post. the last few days haven't appeared in public. yeah. i didn't mention today that he feared for his life when you sign a deal, you know, the kind of way of the situation. just the man being arrested today. right now behind me being taken over to the right place with protestors on media following behind this very small amount of i mean on the streets. it's hard to say whether this is the general trend of the majority of the population and all of the very vocal minority, you know, currently leading the protest. but what will come, he said, is, or, i mean, they aren't sure where we are in short of following monday's deal. i mean, the way they're expressing it is slightly different, perhaps, with azerbaijan, a bunch of take control of large parts of nicola back armenians. there are fleeing their homes, some even burnt on their property, so they're not left to the enemy as they see it. but on the other side of the

conflict, people greeted the ceasefire as a national victory taking to the streets in celebration where we spoke to the red cross spokesperson in a corner. on the former canadian ambassador to armenia, they both say the truce is crucial for thousands of people. the impact of this coalition, like the think and across the region i'm hoping will give us a team and their life down on that piece, talking to people who have to leave their homes. now you search for safety in 0 or

0 point one. we're not horrible. mellicent economy, you know, these people are in need or who can't make it clear and who are maybe being a few fans pandering to support for a few people might think it's to me. there's nothing wrong with patriotic commotion when they are directed with such hostility toward the other side from both sides. it takes great creativity to counsel people to, to learn again, to live together. it's going to depend on the extent to which russian leaders change the complete cooperation of the leaders of the 2 countries in year 2000 and very well trained, russian troops will be very effective. but what will be most effective will be

self discipline. on the part of the 2 sides, and i think that can only be obtained through communication from moscow buses. all of donald trump supporters descended on washington d.c. from all across the country for a weekend of rallies in support of the president as he continues to contest the outcome of the 2020 u.s. election. now it led to tension in the capital clashes, breaking out on saturday. kuntar protesters confronted from supporters. authorities say one person was stabbed a further 20, a rest were made to police also state. they have been responding to multiple reports of altercations between extreme left and right wing groups. some just blocks away from the white house from backers have been spurred by the president's allegations of widespread electoral fraud and have taken to the streets to demand

a recount. all media outlets have a ready, colby election for joe biden. but some democrats voices are adding to the tension by calling for revenge on anybody who has supported a local if past to lose. but that all his enablers have to lose. 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 care what the liberal program, good luck finding a job. security. sympathize with those dealing with losing is not easy. when one has to think not only about what's best for the nation peaceful transfer of power, but how any future employers might see your character defined during adversity. caitlin collins just reported white house staff are starting to look for jobs.

employers considering them should know there are consequences for hiring anyone who helps 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't find any more work. congresswoman alexandria causing a cortez also raised a lot of eyebrows with a tweet singing a similar to ease 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 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. from supporters of conservatives have been canceled and banned blacklisted. the metered religulous league for the last 4 years, especially by mainstream media, by far left agitators, people losing their jobs recently supporting the president, people having their homes, dogs, people being attacked, something orders are, have been through all of this. they survived the last 4 years. they're actually when i've been seeing more bold to get out spoken to stand up to not be afraid of these tactics anymore. and the democrats, i believe a lot of people do that. we have a plan for a permanent democrat majority in this country. so republicans could never get elected in federal elections in this country and, and then, you know, sort of march in there, one party socialist, adultery and utopia. unless we forget,

counting and recounting is still ongoing, nearly 2 weeks after election day questions surrounding as well. the role. 'd of the electoral college they have heightened concerns over the integrity of the entire voting system. let's go through it briefly. then. the electoral college aims to prevent either congress or the public from having complete influence over the votes within the system. each of america's 50 states choose elect tours. their number differs from state to state population being a primary factor to win the count. it needs a majority of electors. however, critics of the system stressed it is unfair, as it doesn't equate to one person, one vote and many other countries are puddle of gas, discussed its potential flaws. we know republicans always win texas, just like democrats always win california. and what i tell voters here to try and get them to vote libertarian, as i say, your vote will have no impact on the outcome of the election. so go ahead and vote

for a 3rd party like libertarians if you want. that example demonstrates how the electoral college does make a lot of voters preferences. not very influential. i would love to see a much smaller, less powerful government so that we really didn't care so much who won the election . there's no real identification of fraud in the us voting system. we have a secure system. what you have is a level of mistrust between both sides of this 2 party system who always believes the other side is cheating, even though i think it's more of an american thing where we don't trust this money more like our sport. we believe the other side is the plating the ball of outgoing president. we know that he tends to have more tangent than normal, that has no relation to the electorial college and we are technologically advanced enough to simply count the votes. i think we need to even move beyond the compact and have a system of course in representation, we have a long history in united states of 3rd 4th and 5th parties trying to break into the

political system in the dance. because before there's even discussion of the contract, we have this richard 2 party system that is based on their take hold. so that contact again is a 1st step in the right direction, but it's still not enough. let's bring you to latin america and peru, where in trim presidents. manuel merino hugs, resigned this sunday. just 6 days after taking office. be a nice been coming in response to protests turned deadly since the appointment of the new government, the 2 people died in the peruvian capital on software. they offer a rally in support of not another former president martin visit. carla descended into violence. he was, i said just last week over corruption claims, his supporters call it the could, and it sparked nationwide protest. government

protests have also been staged for a 14th consecutive week in the capital. dozens were reportedly detained there this sunday by the security forces during demonstration in the center of minsk civil tenuously. people also gathered in memory of a fellow opposition supporter this week in hospital is injuries. were the result of police tactics. the most really started back in august with the public and opposition figures calling the result of the presidential election rigged briefly to the u.k. city of liverpool were locked. have also seen people come out in protest. there are $25.00 arrests made over violations of the gatherings. hundreds turned up for head on the program. early signs suggest russia's coba job is 92 percent effective. after the break we hear from budapest is planning

to get on board with join me every day on the alex salmond show i'm show business is your media. a reflection of reality in a world transformed what will make you feel safe, isolation, community. are you good in the right way or are you being so

what is truth is in the world corrupted. you need to descend to join us in the death or a mate in the shallowness, or back of the weekly on r.t.e., the makers of russia's cobra job, being given a confidence boost as the latest trial data suggest, it is 92 percent effective. the drug known as sputnik is in the 3rd stage of testing and must production is expected soon with nationwide vaccinations to follow . the world health organization is out of the job to its list of emergency use drugs. several foreign countries including india. brazil have already placed orders,

and hungary has become the 1st european nation to sign off for sputnik feet. but a press will run its own trial, its all of the drug in a few weeks time. the hunger in foreign minister who spoke to us. in fact, while recovering from having caught cold at 19 told my colleague neil harvey cooperation is key to overcoming the pandemic. it's any time international cooperation that based on mutual respect is now. and i think that all the political correctness judging 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. so sometimes i have the feeling that the issue of the vaccines is becoming politicized, which i think should be again, we are crossing fingers for all companies and countries which are hoping for developing a vaccine regardless who they are. so we are interested in india,

american, in the european union, the russian in the chinese indies for the vaccine development and research to be successful. you know, shooting with everybody including russia. of course. yeah. if this is correct, i have reports that under going to be buying some russian vaccines in december like you said, you were looking at all the options. is there any concern though. 'd about the 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 about the light for the people always anytime political aspects should be left behind. and this is the way the world waits for a viable covert vaccine finding a job is not the only challenge. another is how to make it accessible. while rich countries can afford stockpiling drugs. poor ones often lack the specialist storage equipment needed. picking up out story for us, artie's charlatans. within hours of pharmaceutical giant pfizer and by

own tech announcing there could be $1000.00 vaccine was 90 percent effective. but do 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, full rich nations. it's worrying that pfizer bio and 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 and 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 and many poor. 'd countries are not going to be able to be all the support it spends if coaching, infrastructure, and storage on time to deliver the missing. this vaccine needs to be stored at 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 call chain transportation and has a short shelf life. the requirement through 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 engineers have called on following 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 period with market in some way. because the last country to be called that really determines when the pandemic it's going to be one who pay for it getting worse. i mean, we 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 brit conference at the same time. profit incentive shouldn't be in the mind. the world's greatest invention and treatment by a lot by products. well, a new medical study has added to the urgency of finding

a vaccine. it catching covert 19 can correlate with developing mental disorders. the study was run by the university of oxford, find that one in 5 coronavirus patients go on to the veld mental health issues within 3 months of testing positive. the knowledge says was based on 69000000 u.s. medical records and more than 62000 of them had cold. but the majority of disorders linked to the disease are characterized by fear or worry in some cases strong enough to make every day life seem on bearable. they include adjustment disorder, post-traumatic, stress disorder, public attacks, insomnia, and even dementia. we talked to a co-author of the study. the short answer is that we don't know yet, and we have 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 of itself. and the fear of having a potentially life limiting in this might cause things like anxiety and depression, as it does also to a possible biological explanation which is that it is possible. that sounds good to say the very virus that causes of it 19 might get into the brain. we know that some british do we don't know yet as far as i know where the sask of 2 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 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 psychotic in this, 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 services provided for those people in therapy provided for the people. we know the things that he depression, for instance, for example, is of treatable diseases. most people that we receive treatment for anxiety, depression do get better and very important that those treatments are available to all that need them. during the pandemic, if projected it's joe biden, who takes over the reins of the white house in january, what will actually change in america? and what's washington's plans for the world at large world apart, gets into the out in moments. this is marty.

it was always on the boom, but up especially big city, bright lights, huge opportunities and many dangers to blow the lid to it's also a city where up to $300000.00 crimes are committed every year. those for the last would you believe that your most need still through the reserve least one police officer, 200 residents in russia's capital and i think it will make me think i will not go through an x. boysen. you know, with most of the people who would come to the us. so

what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy for them to let it be an arms race off and spearing dramatic development. only mostly i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical. time time to sit down and talk all alone. welcome to worlds apart from a reek i'm stolen, fellow trailing from the return of dignity and decency their system. and of the us elections is just as polarized as america itself. and while joe biden,

presences in small, likely, at this point, willing to drain the rehabilitation of america at home and abroad, that he supporters so intensely crave. while to discuss that, i'm not joined by louis caldera distinguished and junk professor of law at american university, and formerly a senior military official in the obama and clinton administration's progress ago. darien. so good to talk to you. thank you very much for your time. they are having many world leaders have already congratulated joe biden on winning the elections, even though some states haven't finished counting the ballots. and donald trump's count has been exhausted. its all its legal options. i know that you have supported joe biden from the get go on the emotional level as i'm sure it feels right. but when it comes to american law, due process, the american republic, which requires some semblance of neutrality, d.z.

that's actually a sign of respect. the election's over in the united states, we have a tradition that when it is clear who's going to win because they have the majority of votes that are needed for any office and for president, it's the majority of the electoral college votes. even though there are still some technical things that have to do, there are, in some key states have to certify the elections. the certification often doesn't happen for weeks after the election. and yet on election night, you may know whether the margin for the winner is so large that it is impossible for the defeated candidate to catch up. so there may still be 10000 votes to count, but the margin is 80000 votes. it doesn't matter if all 10000 votes went for the defeated candidate they cannot possibly catch up.
