1:01 pm
make the job. we all squashes talk for all of just how long it will be before this virus is i'm seeing february when 70 percent of the population will have gotten this infection. this virus will never disappear from our population. it is another virus which we need to live with. and the u.s. senate passes an act that could see huge fines we put in jail. but those involved in sports for the wall down to take an agency more incident american sport while allowing it to national prosecutions. to go ahead. has gone 9 pm here in the russian capital you watching all the international. thanks for keeping me company this hour on. let's go with operates news that i mentioned earlier, the russian president has given some insight into the protracted negotiations to
1:02 pm
end. the new corner conflict brought about putin explained that there was a chance the peace deal could have been reached weeks ago between armenia and azerbaijan. the russian need to side, one of the 2 war nations was rather reluctant to give up. come within you. on october 19th and 20th, i had a series of phone conversations with president i live and prime minister passion. at that time, the armed forces of azerbaijan had gained control over an insignificant part of southern carabao. in general, i managed to convince president i live, that it was possible to stop the hostilities, but he's obligatory condition was the return of refugees. but then unexpectedly, for me, the position of armenia and partners was formulated in such a way that it was unacceptable for them. meanwhile, troops from armenia and azerbaijan are now cooperating, finally in the disputed nuclear. and i care about cretin, it comes as russian peacemakers arrive in the area to uphold
1:03 pm
a ceasefire between the 2 sides and have now reopened the only road linking the enclave to all media. who are gaza? have sent us this report. where it's a russian peacekeepers. observation, post the cease fire monitoring station just outside of the now is it about johnny held. 'd city, this is something of a surreal experience because we see behind us, russian peacekeepers standing together with john the troops, very close together and just behind them armenian troops. these are neutral territories. these are areas to which are there by johnny food as well as troops come to resolve their misunderstandings or disputes outstanding problems that may come up. so everything is on the controller for any questions emerge. commanders from both sides and from our side as well. settle issues,
1:04 pm
we have full mutual understanding. there is no problem working together. today has also witnessed the opening of the corridor, the only route for the forseeable future that link armenia to the pro armenian. what's left of the breakaway region of the gold in the we've seen a convoy head out from armenia and the escort of russian peacekeepers towards the capital. security of the area is maintained by the observation posts longer lashon corydoras and by military police as well simple. we must ensure the safe transportation of civilians and money to the cease fires with the end of hostilities. the most outstanding problem now is the issue out of the area concerns the issue of the return of tens of thousands of refugees
1:05 pm
who've been forced to flee their homes. that out of their villages because of the conflict because of the sheer brutality of this conflict and the issue now is getting them back. and this is something that the latrines because will help with that. it's a safe route for all these refugees to return to their homes. there is a lot of humanitarian organization presence here. the red cross, for example, which is overseeing demining operations, the exchange of prisoners, the exchange of the remains of fallen troops. and as we're coordinating the return and help for all the 10s of thousands of refugees that are on the competition with both sides has been successful established. we have a productive partnership. everybody understands that we must bring peace to this long suffering land to do so with the recent events here, people react differently, some happy, some a neutral and civilians of course,
1:06 pm
gave us a woman welcome. thank god that the war here is over again. aside then, the magic unimaginable just a few weeks ago, it is their budget and the military vehicle making its way into territory, held by pro armenian forces to negotiate, to resolve disputes with the armenian side, through russian peacekeeper mediation. he had helped the red cross international committee has already expressed gratitude to the peacekeepers. while we also got reaction on the streets of the armenian capital. this piece, they're building roads providing security. this is excellent and welcome. the fact that peacemakers are in karbala, it is better in the news in it all together. the only the help comes the better even better if it had come before we suffered its losses and armenians and russians, brotherly people. the role of the russian peacekeepers here is especially important
1:07 pm
. well, just to remind you, want to the peace deal, both sides will hold on to their current military positions that gives armenia control of the disputed regions capital to product. but i'm not surprised, john. its time gets the 2nd largest city of which it took just before the fighting ended. armenia will also have to handover 3 of the districts in the region. throughout hussain a deputy minister of the azerbaijan committee for refugees told us it will take a lot to rebuild the area. but he said that despite the war his people can live alongside armenians. every same been said terry to this which are under occupation, has been destroyed literally speaking crazed as a ground and toast scene. but to do it will be to assess the damage which was caused as a major, an economy and civilian ation. after a peace deal brokered by consideration how armenia is our leading edge at this
1:08 pm
for instance, they're destroying everything as a right janice, have no problem in living side by side was or mean as you know was this takes place in russian federation in georgia in ukraine. and as upon those of note, if are me inside at will abate, will comply with is also commitments which have been adopted was, is a friend of traveler to take agreement will ensure safety and security for me and community. he was able to leave insist, far as did this officer by john, complying with national legislation of the republic of i said, right, well, we also spoke to mark almond to as the director of the crisis with such unstick knocks that now he believes the mediation of the russian peacekeepers could be crucial in stabilizing the region. i think the likelihood is, in fact, this will be
1:09 pm
a basic piece of the territories will be exchanged and it will come to accept it. and in a sense, the problem before was that we simply don't mean incentives. there is facing each other without a mediator on the ground, an errand to war or cease fire on the ground. and now russia has sent in peace because this means that there is a 3rd party that both sides good relations with. and so i think it should be the basis of a stable future. there's always the risk of some foolish or reckless act or somebody causing things to be wrong. but i think that in the care of a question with a jewish neutral or mediator the success, it was not a headline story of the wild, untamed typing agency has described a new bill going through the u.s. as a power grab by the american typical forty's. and it could allow the united states
1:10 pm
to create a liability outside of its jurisdiction. my colleague andrew pharma discussed those concerns over the so-called right to cough and to doping act with our team sports correspondent alex a. well, the biggest concern is that this new act which is called the russian named after a russian whistleblower, basically applies to international culprits, but not the domestic ones in the u.s. . now they're watching entails up to a 1000000 dollar fine or even 10 years in prison for not the athletes themselves, but the entourage of an athlete, or even the government which is accused or suspected of adopting scheme. but the original draft of that bill included u.s. professional sports and us college sports. but by the time it reached the senate, miraculously, this part of the bill disappeared somewhere. so now basically it excludes all the majority of us professional sport. now this is one of the things that the world anti-doping agency expressed their concerns about. among other things, including,
1:11 pm
you know, how come the u.s. is trying to make itself into the world. anti-doping police. let's have a listen in order along with a number of governments and sports arenas, issues, there's legitimate concerns about the roche and of act. in particular, it may lead to overlapping laws in different jurisdictions that will compromise having a single set of rules for all athletes around the world wide, which is also to understand why this legislation excludes vast areas of u.s. sport. in particular, the professional leagues and all college sports, if it's not good enough for american sports, why is it fine for the rest of the world? now the main mastermind of this new bill is traver steiger, the head of the u.s. anti-doping agency, and it's not the 1st time that tiger was, has been involved in some sort of rift between the usada and the world anti-doping agency. there have been cases where the u.s. hinted through tiger that they would even pull funding from water if it refused to play along. so basically, the only thing remaining for this bill to become law is trump signature and no one else. this will happen. brace ourselves for more drama in the end,
1:12 pm
just to remind us to alexey why it is called the act. now obviously this relates to go to direction of who exploded the world of sport in 2016, when he made explosive allegations against russia, against the russian government that it was allegedly involved in some sort of doping scheme for himself is hiding in the united states. there are rumors that he even changed his appearance that he had a plastic surgery or something like that. but the funny thing is there is a job going about now that the 1st person prosecute persecuted under this new should be watching himself. since he claims that he was part of the state conspiracy and you know, going back, this is basically a criminal offense. now if this bill becomes law, but obviously this is named after him. i mean the irony there is, the sports rely on whistle blows. don't know, but my exactly, it will discourage them from coming forward in case they get committee prosecuted. and i was russia then reacted to this bill. there has been a reaction from russia through the kremlin spokesperson emitted to scald who called, this kind of move unacceptable. i believe we can listen to the critics q.,
1:13 pm
which we are extremely critical of any attempt by the united states to extend its jurisdiction to other countries. such cross border practice isn't acceptable. we disagree with that, and of course this can cause nothing but concern. it's not only just on paper looks like a unilateral decision to govern the anti-doping processes in the world, which is why those certainly unhappy but you mention it right. the fact that whistleblowers will now be afraid of being persecuted. this basically hampers the whole process of whistle blowing. if this bill becomes law, we also from a sports psychology and sociology expert alyce cashmore who thinks the legislation actually won't be effective in tackling the problem of doping. the irony of this, the absolute paradox of the center of it is that it's designed to try to control doping in the world. it will do nothing of the sort. in fact, it will probably have the opposite of thing because anybody who does decide to want to, to grass up in other words, to spill the beans, to inform,
1:14 pm
in other words on doping that they suspect is going on, well, immediately be held complicit in the action because they have a say, how did you know about this? did you have to do anything to contribute towards the doping offense? and if you did, maybe it will now be you as well. so it will actually intimidate potential whistleblowers certainly not encourage them because there's no witness protection program here. and so really, it appears to be the united states positioning itself as the world's anti doping policeman by the end of the group with water. but i think that they will have something very strong to say about this because really straining on their toes. let's face it. let's talk loud to the french capital, where crowds have gathered in paris to push back against a draft law designed to protect the identity of police. the so-called global security bill aims to ban the dissemination of images that would make police
1:15 pm
officers identifiable for, quote, malicious purposes. the national assembly argue to hold the debate tonight in the coming hours. the bill has attracted criticism from media outlets and activist groups as they played it, put, press, press freedom in jeopardy, but still ahead on the program, even though the result is still being contested. the us election threw up some unexpected trends when it came to ethnic groups. will take a look after this short break. stick with us is your media a reflection of reality? in a world transformed what will make you feel safe? isolation or community?
1:16 pm
are you going the right way, or are you being led by what is true? what is faith? in the world corrupted, you need to descend to join us in the death or a mate in the shallows. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race in this on off, and spearing dramatic developments. only i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time to sit down and talk. welcome
1:17 pm
back. then let's add to russia. here was that have been almost 2000000 coronavirus cases since the spring moscow, as the capital has the highest number of victims. the republic of korea in eastern russia has become the 1st to impose a no knock down craze in restaurants shopping centers on places of moscow during the 2 weeks we spoke with some of the country's top drama, just on the development of a vaccine. and when it could finally have an impact on this pandemic. but there are now 100 vaccines in the world yourself. the institute was the 1st which to quit. it had developed one, but this is very important. the vaccine was still unfinished. it was in the 3rd phase of testing, yet the president said that we have the vaccine. how come it's not the political, it doesn't even though it is politics, not science. i can just comment about the scientific part. we had the opportunity for quicker development, because at that point that you take the virus out of
1:18 pm
a cell culture and clean it. and when you inject a person with it, the virus won't multiply and you say that long term immunity is formed. how long and how strong the immunity is, is still the subject of study? it is still a question. yes, it is still in question. but antibodies develop the cell immunity develops, and we can be sure that a person after vaccination will be safe for some time. at least for half a year or the bigger it's the beautiful one will such a large scale global epidemic. when 70 percent of the population will have gotten this infection, but this virus will never disappear from our population. it is another virus which we need to live with. we are dealing with a virus that adapts to humans due to its evolutionary orientation. how long will it take it to adjust by orientation? i mean, the fact that it always infects the upper respiratory tract but doesn't necessarily
1:19 pm
infect the lungs and other organs. do we know that for sure, you know, you can consider it a hypothesis over time, it will more affect the upper respiratory tract and go less inside of your body. that's why the virus will lose its lethality, it will spread, and in fact, well, but stop killing. how many years will it take before it stops killing people over 65, the overweight people with diabetes and people with cardiovascular diseases. about 2 or 3 years will have to duck to us in 2 or 3 years. i don't agree here. i do think that it will change over time. there will be more people with immunity plus vaccinations they will work to. of course the incidence will decrease, but i don't think the severe morbidity will and the issue is not with the virus, but with the human body itself, we need to understand the croon. a virus does not kill you. it finishes you
1:20 pm
the outgoing u.s. secretary of state has received a lukewarm welcome as it takes off a multi-nation tour. the french president met might bump a often meeting calls for more restraint relations on the e.u. as a whole is finding it tough to move on from the tensions with the trial of ministration . reporting from paris has r.t.s. audit events for years over the trunk ministration have frayed relations with e.u. that pushed some, such as the french president to advance the idea of europeans to a court order. me. but even the prospect of joe biden heading into the white house is having little effect on emanuel my corns idea of european independence. the united states will only respect us as allies if we are serious with ourselves.
1:21 pm
and if we are sovereign with our own defense, we need to continue to build our autonomy for ourselves. not cool, i was reacting to an op ed written by the german defense minister in it. she stated, you are promoting dependent only us, both americans,, europe need to fully accept the realities of continued u.s., nuclear deterrence on the european continent, illusions of european strategical told me, must come to an end. europeans will not be able to replace. america's crucial rule is a security provider not call addressed this point. specifically. i profoundly disagree with the opinion piece by the german defense minister in politico. i think it is a historical misinterpretation. what this illustrates is just how i will not on the same page in new members all when it comes to the future of transatlantic relations . even more so it seems that for once in germany or in totally different camps,
1:22 pm
when german chancellor angela merkel welcome biden's victory. she talked about how, you know, from the united states of america, in germany as part of the european union, must stand together to meet the great challenges of our time side by side. new while france spoke about a change in that relationship. because europe has changed in the last 4 years and has shaken off its nadir in terms of trade and has built a common defense mechanism. so this is and you ear and we need to remodel the transom plan, take relationship with a biden administration. but let's not forget all of the internal who are in the e.u. missing one major point. what does the u.s. won't all given the u.s. is own internal divisions. what could it, even if this is not going to be plain sailing by resume? classic strategy of the us is
1:23 pm
a world. europe will be many more soon, lose europe. was not a good move for thought. we had many illusion sprays, many feelings about old, bad and against rome, but i feel really it's not a good new. and with the e.u. having just slapped fratello tree taxes on us products in learning running trade disputes, there are choppy waters still ahead to navigate. joe perry didn't is offering e.u. leaders, his cooperation, saying he wants to reinvigorate bilateral and transatlantic ties to nato and the u. . yet it's clear all the goodwill in the world won't change the fact that the, remains of vost ocean between them. charlotte r.t., paris. and finally, reinvigorating relations or not as we have some saw that the outcome of the us
1:24 pm
election is still being disputed. and with donald trump and joe biden, ryan going over who will get the keys to the white house. many are looking at that campaigns for clues as to why the gains and losses were made and what the focus on identity politics was misplaced, while trump lost support from white man, a groupie want decisively and 2016. however, he gave 4 percent would be african-american and hispanic communities break apart, and latino votes help sway in florida and has favor asian americans shifted even more to the republicans where the 7 percent rise. i discuss the results with x. parts. i don't be politics really died in 26 years in the eyes of average americans of course not in the media, not in the far left is not the democrat party because they are, they remain so out of touch with real americans that average america, with normal people really, people are only, it's as much as the left in the media, you know, the democrat party, double down on this narrative that donald trump is
1:25 pm
a racist, is this narrative that republicans, you know, hate minorities or whatever. a lot of people weren't listening. i believe that a lot of people in the black community felt completely disrespected by the democratic party during this election. not only did they not respond to what we could expect in response our vote, they also began to put out the mercial that were disrespectful. it's one thing to say donald trump is racist, but show me that you're not racist as well. and i don't think the democratic party did, and it's suffered, it caused a lot of people to, you know, turn their back on the party. well, i think the elections showed that many minorities got tired of this rhetoric. there's an attitude to believe that latinos, for some reason, they are a one topic community which is basically based on immigration. and i think latinos got very upset about this because in the end, no matter where you're black, latino, or asian. i think we've got to move forward into the future in it when we see each
1:26 pm
other, beyond the color of anybody, your skin. and we're able to look at each other for what we stand for, what we believe in and not because we have a brown wide or black skin, which i think is ridiculous. it's important that we realize black people are not monolithic, and we actually do appreciate policy just because the president has your color or your compassion does not mean that your policies will benefit. you are always be in line with your views. well, identity politics win or counted at elections in the future. i think it's only going to lose. i think it's going to continue to lose. and that terrified there's a lot of people that terrorize a lot of very powerful people because they've built their identities on it. so to speak, they the whole, the whole identity politics. mission is something that people built a lot of careers on. all they talk about is equity, which is of course, stealing one group, giving to another, propping one group up over another sort of leveling the playing field by targeting
1:27 pm
certain groups now which groups deserve that is always going to be shifting and identity. politics is their greatest weapon to do that at the moment. so i think i, did a policy actually still stars a very powerful role p. and l., the electorate. reparations was due to people who were descendants of slaves. and so if that's the case and, and african-americans began to swell around that issue. democrats, if i were in trouble to need to that topic, we saw it in the election result that the voter, the american border is really interested in. what are you going to do for me? how my going to live another day? how am i going to put foot of the table? we have a lot of people that have like serious issues. and we need to just focus on the things that people are concerned about, the economy putting food on the table, senator kids to school, and being able to have a decent life and reaching the american dream. that's a wrap for now. that's for joining us, coming away now and then bust enjoy it
1:28 pm
was always in the building, but especially with big city, bright lights. you just but you know, many dangers that the players are going to it's also
1:29 pm
a city where up to $300.00 sounds of crimes are committed every day for the last with you. but if you did your most, it's still through the reserve league one police officer. if you've read 200 residents in russia's capital, lost on the right track, i think that we're not going to explore some new moon. that's the beauty of the william. tell us that
1:30 pm
this is a boom bust the one business show you can't afford to miss something. i want to fail in washington coming up more positive news for a little bit about how to wall street trading above the record on monday. break down where investors are putting their money on the top to bottom out to trade deal and join $15.00, asian pacific countries together with the world's largest economy and lucked out. we have a lot to get to. so let's just start a historic day for modernity. as preliminary results show its corona virus vaccine is more than 90 percent effective. on monday, madonna's early data showed $94.00 africa seaford sac seen now did also showed the drug maker gave 15000 participants a placebo shot out of those 90 people got sick. on the other hand, another 15000 participants also received the vaccine or actually were.
