your own work, one would you would be easy, just a good digital ship to get you to so that you know what they think. oh, you did the developers of russia. sputnik. the vaccine say it's 95 percent effective and could cost as little as $20.00. also to come the dangers of clearing a path for the pace of the mining operation in the disputed region. claims one is a vision soldier, dead and injured as a russian sub. we are right next to the city of state by the full of returning refugees, people who will be scarred by the war. people still in shock and fearful for the future. the last thing they need is more explosions. and then the u.s.

joe biden turns toward war for his secretary of state and looks to pack the white house with establishment figures that his team trump relent and agree to cooperate on the transition. hello, just gone 4 o'clock in moscow. you with r.t. international, 95 percent effective, that is the claim being made by the developers of russia's covert faxing for their sputnik jab. the assessment is based on the latest clinical data, which does indicate the drug's efficacy increases with time. i discussed the news with refund option. small degree is currently in phase 3 of his clinical trials and is going to last for at least 4 more months. but we already received early interim results and they are quite impressive. the 2nd interim analysis of clinical trial data showed a 91.4 percent efficacy for the sputnik the vaccine on day $28.00. after the 1st
8:02 am
dose vaccine efficacy is over 95 percent. 42 days after the 1st dose, the us based foreign giants, pfizer, and there are now say, just recently they announced that their drugs are also almost 95 percent efficient, but they get malaria research center, the company behind sputnik, the russian vaccine say their drug is unique. you know, and we are using 2 forms of the virus administered via 2 different injections the data from us to resent it to has confirmed that this is more effective than using just one form of the virus. our method is more than 90 percent effective, as demonstrated by sputnik, we were open to sharing our human done a virus with other companies. the developers say that the recent results are based on the analysis of the data or $19000.00 volunteers who took part in the trials and received already both 1st and 2nd days of the drug. is there any indication?
8:03 am
so you all know how much the show would actually cost. it seems a sputnik to the so far is the cheapest coronavirus vaccine on the potential market, where the price less than $10.00 per day's. experts say that you case, we asked that as zelikow vaccine could be cheaper, but they didn't announce their price officially yet. but while competition is obvious, russia says the more vaccines, the better, it is important for the world to have their respect and sputnik, we can be part of the countries faction package. at the moment. we can only produce enough vaccines for 500000000 people, which means a 1000000000 injections next year. we also see a very good day to crossfire's and modernity. vaccines have been found over 90 percent effective and we have no reasons to doubt those figures. several countries already announced that they want to buy russia sputnik weaker and a virus vaccine. and we hear that sales may start already in january. but you have
8:04 am
to understand that the price i mentioned only works for foreign customers for foreign buyers, for russians. and for russia, sputnik, we will be free. it was good news so far, but it hasn't stopped people certainly early on criticizing the claims were the cut corners developers weren't transparent sufficiently about their research? is the been sort of any response to that criticism? well, you have to understand that phase 3 of the clinical trials of sputnik really is still on to go. and according to the rules, it is forbidden to make any data public at this point. but the gemmell, a research center says that they are ready to provide full trial reports and all information all data and publish it in one of the leading medical journals. as soon as face 3 is over, refinishing to talk to, the professor says the effectiveness of the drug is the most important thing.
8:05 am
this is the fullest set of data and it confirms a very high level of protection trial data. and the excellent levels of protection that are being observed is the most important. however, the practicalities of then how you distribute it is and who is going to pay for it, then kick in. and so both the price and the storage conditions are a factor in how easily we'll be able to roll out these vaccines. the most important thing is to identify the vulnerable groups, the aged, and those with underlying health conditions and ensure that they get the vaccine in the 1st wave as, as the vaccines are released. after that, there should be a discussion of the general rollout, but it will take time. that's the critical factor, the logistics of getting the vaccine out to people, which will take up to about 2 months. so it's going to be staggered. and so, going forward, i think, the social distancing in the mask wearing
8:06 am
a probably going to be a factor for the next 6 months. but they should then be simply not needed as the immunity levels increase. that russian peacekeepers have started doing mining operation in the disputed nagorno-karabakh region. explosive devices left behind from the recent conflicts still pose a threat to the local population recently killed in this area. while leaving a russian sapper wounded on gas, the air visited the site of a clearance operation. the sheer intensity of this war, the sheer quantity of me sells ammunition bombs used are astounding. the sad truth is that it will take years to find that make safe every unexploded munition footage visited by john, raining cluster bombs and cities and towns and in the garden. a car buck sparked
8:07 am
outrage, but adds, rage dissipates, and evaporates, cluster bombs, don't hit buses. we are ready for anything, especially air drop bombs and cluster munitions. often rounds are dropped too low or don't have enough rotation speed. and they wind up unexploded in people's gardens or kids' playgrounds, or they could be at previous military outposts. the soldiers may have left, but the munitions remained with russian engineers and sappers. part of the peacekeeping contingent have been tasked with the mining operations other than daily patrols and roads and outposts. they also assist local sappers. there's plenty of work for both. what complicates matters even further is that we are 1000, the middle of nowhere. you can't very well blew every unexploded shell up. we have right next to the city of state by the full of returning refugees,
8:08 am
people who have been scarred by the war. people still in shock and fearful for the future. the last thing they need is more explosions. any minute, no munition found categorized. category 3 is the least dangerous. these shells or rockets are generally and fired and can be transported for disposal. category one of the worst booby traps cluster, bomblets, all volatile munitions that must be destroyed on the spot. not the much in this area, we identified 2 r.p.g. rockets into 125 millimeter tank rounds. it's slow and dangerous work, but helping out a man's and sappers best friend, the mining dogs. some of the her name is jacqueline. she's a belgian shepherd. she took part in the fee for world championship in 2018. she has been through a lot of training and we've been together for 3 years. you use whatever you can.
8:09 am
the war may be over, but every other day we hear of another incident. another casualty, a mine going off or an old grenade exploding. the peacekeepers mission is to establish peace and bring back calm, which you can't do if people are terrified of the very ground they walk on. or i guess the of, from the garden in our white house shake up is underway. general services administration which does oversee access to federal agencies, has triggered the formal transition process to a joe biden presidency. he says his administration and i cooperate during this period where he still to concede the race. i want to thank emily murphy at g.s.a. for her steadfast dedication and loyalty to our country. she's been harassed, threatened, and abused, and i do not want to see this happen to her,,
8:10 am
her family or employees of g.s.a., our case strongly continues. we will keep up the good fight, and i believe we will prevail, nevertheless, in the best interests of our country. i am recommending that emily and her team do what needs to be done with regard to initial protocols and have told my team to do the same well, even before the start of the official transition, biden was already fast at work making king cabinet picks and his decision to fill his administration with war hawks is already creating concern about his foreign policy intentions. kalam open has more. 6 cabinet appointees have already been named. among them is anthony blanket for his secretary of state. now anthony blanket has certainly got an impressive resume. he is definitely not a washington outsider. he was obama's deputy adviser. he was national security adviser to joe biden, when he was vice president. and he was deputy secretary of state. and you can be expecting that he will be establishing
8:11 am
a stark departure from the era of donald trump, whether we like it or not, the world simply doesn't organize itself. and until the trumpet, ministration of the united states have played a lead role in doing a lot of good organizing and helping to write the rules. and joe biden starts with the proposition that we need to reassert american engagement in american leadership . so where do his foreign policy instincts lie? well, based on his resume, he seems to be an advocate of military intervention. as a blanket was a supporter of the u.s. invasion of iraq in 2002. he was an advisor to joe biden at the time when joe biden was very outspoken in supporting that war and repeating the later debunked claims about weapons of mass destruction. blinken also thinks that the problem in syria for the united states has been arming terrorists and extremists in the hope of toppling the baathist government has been a lack of u.s. intervention. we failed to prevent a horrific loss of life. we failed to prevent massive displacement of people internally in syria, and of course,
8:12 am
externally is refugees. and it's something that i will take with me for the rest of my days. lincolns love for war has expressed itself in some rather odd ways. for example, back in 2011, he called out joe biden, his boss at the time for not being enthusiastic enough about nato, his intervention in libya. we'll take a look at the north african country almost a decade later and see how well that intervention turned out. now blinken also repeats the allegation that russia was paying bounties to afghan terrorists if they killed u.s. soldiers. when president trump stands with vladimir putin on the world stage and takes his word about russia's attacks and our elections over, that's for intelligence agencies that exacerbates the problem. when we have a president who is told that russia may be putting bounties on the heads of our troops in afghanistan and does nothing. in fact, worse than nothing by his own knowledge meant speaking to president putin at least 6 times off. he got that report and not raising it,
8:13 am
not confirming him and even inviting president putin to washington and russia back into the g. 7. we have a real fundamental problem. sure, that's pretty bad except that it probably didn't happen. u.s. intelligence has admitted on multiple occasions that it has absolutely no concrete evidence to back up these claims, but it sure made a good talking point for the joe biden presidential campaign, and it was a way to keep the russia gate hysterics a lot. so who cares if it's not true? so while trump is still contesting the election results, biden is getting prepared to get to work in the oval office and based on his secretary of state pick, it looks like peace will definitely not be a priority. we've seen somebody who is doubled down, defended and read, defended a position that has no defense. he has continued to argue for the type of hope for a policy that has been shown to be false, images that should be ineffective. it's an entirely unscientific approach to try something, see it not work,
8:14 am
and then declare success. and we're going to see more and more money through good money thrown after bad as this involvement continues. i don't think anything there is particularly surprising. i mean, we see a continuation of the previous of the obama administration and the clinton administration. i don't see anything there that unusual. i see basically business as usual military overreach, rather than cutting military spending. we're not going to see the shutting down foreign military bases and bring the troops home. we're not going to see a deal escalation of the conflicts in iran, and sorry, in iraq and afghanistan and syria. we're going to see just an escalation to continue asian, a base of the military industrial complex running the u.s. government place in central paris. if you take asked to break up a large prime micro protest in the french capital, which erupted after a temporary camp was created by authorities
8:15 am
appeals film and there. but this camp was set up by various organizations in response to the evacuation of the migrant camp site danny. last tuesday. the goal of the organizers of the tent camp of the past in the republic is to make their voices heard to draw the attention of the authorities to the plight of migrants. let me remind you again that last tuesday the camp in santee was evacuated. it was home to 1500 migrants, 800 of them are still that the rest are trying to find a way out of the situation. and of course some refugee in paris, various pro migrant organizations, are trying to help them. the government has not yet proposed any solution, which is why the prime migrant eutopia organization launched this protest. so to
8:16 am
come on, i think growing tide of lockdowns and restrictions coronavirus skeptics in germany control the same by comparing themselves to persecute teachings. we'll have a look at that story just after the break. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy. let it be an arms race is often spearing dramatic development only closely. i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical. time to sit down and talk the world is driven by shaped by our own personal,
8:17 am
8:18 am
jews. peter, all of those mourn story. well, germany's locked down, light continues and the government looks to get vaccinations rolled out in the coming weeks. carona conspiracy theorists and those on the happy with the measures that have been taken of continue to rally this weekend. the demonstrations took a dark turn with one of those opposed to how angle of merkel is handling the pandemic. comparing herself to a prominent member of the german resistance to the nazi regime that prompted a security guard. you had to be there to walk off in disgust when you know now i'm ganna from class, and i feel like sophie surely because for months i have been active in the resistance here, given speeches, going to damn us, handing out flyers. sophie shore was a member of the white rose resistance movement. she encouraged to confront hitler's dictatorship and in 1943 at the age of just 21, she was murdered by the nazis. this isn't the only time that germany's corona
8:19 am
deniers have tried to draw comparisons between themselves and the victims of the 3rd reich, an 11 year old and the like, and assaulting the frank of the secretly holding a birthday party. despite it being against corona restrictions, both cases of drawn condemnation from the public and politicians alike. anyone who compares themselves to sofie shawl or, and frank today is mocking the courage it took to take a stand against nazis. this plays down the holocaust and shows in an acceptable obliviousness to history. the comparisons are unacceptable. on the one hand, you have people who can express themselves freely in process. and on the other. those who resisted a state of terror, well, facing deprivation and murder, a healthy 22 year old compares herself to sophie schol probably because she's not allowed to go to bars. grotesque, self pity. anyone who seen people on ventilators die of pneumonia cannot take such
8:20 am
nonsense seriously. as people grow tired of lockdowns and restrictions, the protests seem to continue no matter what place to cases the listening, the memory of the victims of nazi isn't going to win. germany's covert skeptics any credibility. and for those who are on happy with the fact that these measures are going to lead to them either losing or having already lost their livelihoods, it just proves and on want a distraction. peter, all of our r.t. . but we discussed the story further with a pinch asked made, he's the president of the conference of european rabbis, what they called the politics of victimization of victimhood people are trying to
8:21 am
to maximize the bad experiences nor arms. of course, we're dealing with a pandemic of historical proportions. we're dealing with one more than 1000000 people who die because we are we dealing with societies which are being ripped apart. but instead of complaining, we have to do our best to be bill cited to do everything, to get to vex rick's backseats and get business and social life back again. out of the turkish president says, his country does see itself as part of europe comes ahead of any summit. next month . and amid tensions though with one bloc member in particular, charlotte n.c. expects. it may have been an all live branch, but the turkish president's overtures to the e.u. and by extension to france over the last few days, have met with little enthusiasm. the french foreign minister is saying what paris
8:22 am
really wants is to see actions for 2 or 3 days. we have heard soothing statements from president. this is not enough. we need action simmering. tensions between france and turkey are in danger of boiling over into uncooled into question mark khan's mental health. well, marc cohn suggested turkey was stirring up resentment against france in the media. and it's not the 1st time that the 2 countries have ratcheted up the temperature. turkey has been recognized as a candidate for full e.u. membership since 9095, but a quarter of a century later, the talks have stalled. concerns were raised following the 2016 coup in turkey and the crackdown that followed with human rights issues among the chief sticking points back then france's president, mike korn, didn't mince his words. he said it was time to end
8:23 am
a poker sea or pretending that there was any prospect of advancement in membership, tool. x. that's far as the relationship with the european union is concerned. it is clear that recent developments choices do not allow any progression of the process and which we are engaged. since then, relations have deteriorated, france and turkey have been at loggerheads over syria, libya, and as a nato allies. more recently, there have been new just speech including over turkey, drilling in the eastern, mediterranean in search of natural gas. the waters are claimed by 2 members of the e.u. greece and cyprus. that's it, turnbull, the you in a quarrel with this warning shot from the top diplomat, it is important that turkey understands that its behavior is widening its separation from the e.u.
8:24 am
all. then there has been the fallout over the controversial one hand, made cartoons for hours. other than on the here's what happened in france. the lawlessness towards muslims has become almost commonplace in many western states which are always praising new cells when it comes to the matter of democracy. towards islam and muslims has become a state backed policy in some european countries. and one which is possibly back to the some incidents by france's head of state. all of this seems to be hardening the e.u. against turkey with france leading the charge. france is united and europe is united and the next european council. europe will have to take decisions that will allow it to strengthen the power balance with turkey to better defend its interests and european values. even cautious germany has warned turkey that it needs to think carefully about its next move. all of this could come to
8:25 am
a head as leaders meet next month when the real possibility over sanctions against being given the green light, a move that could truly signal the end of the road for turkey,, joining the bloc. so what do you will ski r.t., paris, u.k. prime minister boris johnson has promised the country will not be in lockdown over the christmas holidays. this means that families will be able to spend time together over the festive period. however, the announcement has dismayed some who think to say it's unfair that minorities had to give up their religious holidays. earlier in the pandemic. restrictions in england were made on december. and it will last be read this doris. obviously you don't get a grant at christmas truce. doesn't move. it's christmas. i misspeak only recently to make it happen. judgment about the risk of busy early rather jewish
8:26 am
people missed the 2, holiest holidays of the year. muslims were overlooked on either. the volley was a riot of and yet somehow the hell. countries now supposed to make a 2nd fires to save christmas muslims in manchester had to drop their eda plants at 9 30 pm. the night before celebrations began. they couldn't be with their families . jewish people couldn't celebrate russia's shannah the way they wanted to. nor hindus and sikhs. diwali, why should christmas be different for us? in oxford, professor of medicine writing the lancet. medical journal went so far as to call the government's lockdown policy, institutionally racist 1000000 hindus to live in the u.k. as do over 3000000 muslims. we spoke to writer and journalist know powderly. well, in an op ed for r.t. argued that christmas celebrations could have a dire impact on covert cases in england. christmas is much more of
8:27 am
a health hazard for the country. celebrating than those of the smaller press there was were because 90 percent of the country celebrates. that's what actually makes it more dangerous than live restrictions were because 90 percent of the country. we're going to go out there and start mixing the messages. the government gives are not clear, and they're very confusing. and this the confusion that just gives the public we should just behave as they please. i think this is a government that's managed pandemic very, very badly. and i think it keeps too cheap stunts throughout the pandemic, whether it was giving discounts for people to go to, to restaurants. in the summer. this government keeps saying big things just to distract the public from a very incompetent and very confused joke. they still think this is another stunt by this government to, to, to give the public,
8:28 am
the force impression that this some kind of plan for this. there never has been and still is a month washington national just coming off for the afternoon in moscow. good to have you company. more from us at the top there was a pandemic. no certainly no borders and just plotting to nationalities has emerged. we took a backseat world peace to judge a commentary crisis with this system to my time so we can do better, we should everyone is contributing way. but we also know that this crisis
8:29 am
will not go on forever. the challenges craig, with the response, has been must so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we are in it together. is your media a reflection of reality? in a world transformed what will make you feel safe? isolation or community? are you going the right way or are you being lead somewhere? direct? what is truth? what is faith? in a world corrupted, you need to descend to join us in the depths.
