you know, with you for taking all the developers are seeing say it's 95 per cent effective and could cost as little as $20.00 also ahead on the program, the dangers of clearing up for peace operation in the disputed region. leaves did an interview with right next to the city, full of returning refugees. people who've been scarred by the war people can feel,

for the future. the last thing they need is more explosions in the u.s., joe biden turns to a war hawk for his state. and looks to the white house with bushman figures to cooperate on the transition of power broadcasting live from the russian capital every hour of the day. this is our international. i mean i know you and your welcome to the program 95 percent effective. that is the claim being made by the developers of the russian covert vaccine. sputnik 3. the assessment is based on the latest clinical data which shows the drug's creases with time. artie's maria, flushing are told my colleague under former more earlier 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 receive 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 dose vaccine efficacy is over 95 percent. 42 days after the 1st dose, the us based foreign giants, pfizer and there are now also recently announced that their drug is almost 95 percent efficient, but they get all their research center, their company behind sputnik, we say they are. a vaccine is unique. 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 of sputnik lee say that the recent results are based on the analysis of the data on $19000.00 volunteers who took part in the trials and who received already both 1st and 2nd doses. of the drug. well, it seems that so far sputnik the is the cheapest coronavirus vaccine on the potential market with the price of less than $20.00. of course we're talking about both needed doses that is versus 39 dollars. price tag for pfizer and $74.00 for my that and the vaccine experts say that u.k. sweden astra zeneca, could be cheaper than any of these 3 vaccines. but they didn't officially announce their price yet. well, the competition is obvious, but russia says the more vaccines, the better it is important for the world to have their respects. and sputnik we can be part of that country's faction package. at the moment,

we can only produce enough factions for 500000000 people, which means a 1000000000 injections next year. we also see very good data from pfizer and my journal. the 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 hand. we hear that sales may start already in january. but you have 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 will good news so far, but it hasn't stopped people certainly early on criticizing the claims were that cut corners developers weren't transparent sufficiently about their research? is the been sort of any response to that criticism, but you have to understand that phase 3 of the clinical trials of sputnik we 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 report and all, all information, all data and publish it in one of the leading medical journals. as soon as face 3 is over, just last lemuria know you were part of the trials weren't you? how are they going to just run through the job she received? and what's the reaction you had? the most important thing of course, is that i have antibodies, djimi, my immune system responded, and i also know that they are growing because i got to blood tests already in the last 40 days. and that point size was what a research center says. so i'm very happy with that, to be honest. so the results are promising. the world is waiting, leading to the next issue, how to get the vaccines to those in need. we spoke to professor enjoyed 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 data. 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 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. 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 and recently killed elizee resolder while leaving a russian wounded. our senior correspondent at guess the of reports on the 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 never got in a car or a buck sparked outrage. but adds, rage, dissipates, and evaporates, cluster bombs, don't get busses, 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 peacekeeper contingent have been tossed with the mining operations other than daily patrols and roads and near outposts. they also assist the local sappers. there's plenty of work for both. what complicates matters even further is that we aren't out in 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 get full of returning refugees. 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, or volatile munitions. that my be destroyed on the spot. in this area we identified 2 r.p.g. rockets into 125 millimeter tank rounds. it's true and dangerous work, but helping out a man's and zappa's best friend. the mining dogs. 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. 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 more, i guess the of from the garden and giving the program on donald trump has told his team to cooperate with the transition to a joe biden presidency. the process was formally triggered by the general services administration. that is, the agency keeps the federal government functioning day to day. however, mr. trump maintains his fight is not over, there will continue to pursue legal challenges regarding the result of the election . i want to thank emily murphy, a 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 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 interest 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 or even before they start of the official transition, joe biden was already getting comfortable in his proposed role, making key cabinet picks and his decision to fill its administration with war hawks is already creating concerns about his foreign policy intentions. picking up the story for us kill up like better. 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 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, externally is refugees. and it's something that i will take with me for the rest of

my days. lincoln's 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 balances to afghan terrorists if they killed u.s. soldiers. when president trumps tons of blood in the p on the world stage and takes his word about rush's attacks in our elections over, that's right. intelligence agencies that exacerbates the problem when we have a president who's 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 acknowledgement, speaking to president putin at least 6 times after he got that report and not tracing it, not confronting 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 double down defended, 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 and been 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 as our in iraq in afghanistan and syria. we're going to see just an escalation to continue a and basically the military industrial complex running the u.s. government. coronavirus skeptics in germany have sparked, i can rage by comparing themselves to resistance fighters against the nazis. some even liken themselves to persecuted jews as artie's peter. all of her looks into well, germany's locked down light continues and the government looks to get vaccinations rolled out in the coming weeks. corona conspiracy theorists and those on 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 run out. 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, juden stick on the front hitler's dictatorship in 1943 at the age of just 21. she was murdered by the nazis. this isn't the only time that germany's corona deniers have tried to draw comparisons between themselves and the victims of the 3rd reich, an 11 year old and the like, and assaulting frank after 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 soften or, and frank today is mocking the courage it took to take a stand against nazis. this plays down the holocaust and shows an unacceptable 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 depredation, 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's seen people on ventilators die of pneumonia, cannot take such nonsense, serious as people grow tired of lockdowns and restrictions, the protests seem to continue no matter what.

i place 2 cases, the listening, the memory of 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 all, having already lost their livelihoods, it just proves and on want to destruction is what they called the politics of victimization. victimhood people are trying to to maximal experiences, no farms. of course, we're dealing with a pandemic of historical proportions. we're dealing with one more than 1000000. people die because of it we dealing with society's future. but instead of complaining, we have to do our best to leave, decided to do everything to get the vaccine, expect scenes,

and business and social life back again. this is a front has voted in a controversial new law that's triggered widespread all rest in the country while critics of the so named global security spill say it's on their minds basic freedoms. the government insists it seeks to protect police. officers are to charlotte, do been so he can take us what it all means. well, there is a protest taking place behind me outside the national assembly here in paris, where those deputies are vote on this global securities law. a law that's been very controversial. we've seen protests across the country over the last week or so against that and not speak because journalists, unions, and n.g.o.s say that this law, which contains a specific article, article 24, will criminalize publication of images of police offices where you can see their

faces. if there is an intent to harm and that would be punishable by one year in jail or the $45000.00 euro fine. now those groups say that this essentially gives the green light to still hear that report just by charlotte. cut short a little bit. we'll get the full version of out later on in the day, charlotte, speaking there, bye to the global security spelled out as just passed in front. now in the u.k. prime minister boris johnson has promised that england will not be in lockdown over the christmas holidays. meaning families will be able to spend time together then. but the announcement has dismayed some who say it's unfair that minorities have their religious holidays curtailed earlier in the punt. emic would be read this doris obvious. you

don't get to go on to a christmas tree. it doesn't move. it's christmas. i mean, this is an families who need to make each have a judgment about the risk of visiting early ballots. jewish people missed the 2, holiest holidays of the year. muslims were overlooked on eat. duvalle was a write off. and yet somehow the hell countries now supposed to make a 2nd, feis 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? well, oxford professor of medicine writing in the lancet medical journal went so far as the call, the government's locked on policy, institutionally racist 1000000 hindus live in the u.k. as to over 3000000 muslims. we spoke to writer and journalist europol delhi,,

while in an op ed for r.t., he argued that christmas celebrations could have a dire impact on covert cases in the christmas is much lower health hazard for the country than those of the smaller person who was were because 90 percent of the current celebrate makes it more dangerous than live restrictions who are 90 percent return to. we're going to go out there and start mixing the messages. the government gives or are not clear and they're very confusing. and this to completion just gives the public just variables that cleans, i think this is a government, this money just behind me very, very badly. and i think it keeps to keep stunts throughout the whether it was giving discounts for people to go to restaurants or into the summer. this government keeps saying just to distract the public from a very incompetent and very confused joke. that is to,

this is another stunt by this government to, to, to kill the public, the false impression that this some kind of plan for this to never has been and still is a month never has been and still is a man. ok, we're going to return to that story. we showed you just a pic of a little bit earlier fronts. what again, a controversial new law that triggered widespread on rest in the country. the government sais that it aiming to protect police officers from their images being spread by 12 critics. of the so-called global security is built on their minds, basic freedoms. our correspondent charlotte dubin, skee saw some protesters. she also explains what's going on. well, there is a protest taking place behind me outside the national assembly here in paris, where those deputies vote on this securities law, a law that's been very controversial. we've seen protests across the country over the last week or so against that, and not speak because journalists, unions,

and n.g.o.s say that this law, which contains a specific article oct 24, will criminalize publication of images of police offices where you can see their faces. if there is an intent to harm and that would be punishable by one year in jail or the $45000.00 euro fine. now those groups say that this essentially gives the green light to stop journalists from doing their jobs because they won't be able to potentially film police because they could find themselves in the criminal courts. for doing that shocking images emerged from monday evening where it was showing the police using force force to clear a migrant camp in the center of the city. does have a look at some of the using images of what unfolded.

well part of the job of journalists is to document what the security forces are doing or whether there are any abuses of power by them. it was one journalist who was forced to the ground by police officers, other images and videos circulating on social media and showed the police not just using that tear gas. but actually, when they were trying to move those tents in one scene, they pick up a tent and they essentially eject a migrant out of it. and in another video that we show, you know, the social media as a my, constrained to leave the scene where he is forcibly trick to by

a police officer at those images shocked. many people here in fronts, including the interior minister, who has until their side in time until i'm with the police. such an image is showing the dispersal of the illegal migrant camp on republic square. a shocking, i've requested a detail report of the facts from the police by midday tomorrow, i will make a decision after that. there is an investigation that's been opened into what happened on the monday evening with doesn't say even the interior minister saying he was shocked by those images. but many people might say, if it wasn't for the journalists there covering that if it wasn't for the citizens taking those images on their phones, if they were not allowed to do that, which potentially could be the case if this lure is passed, then how would proper investigations be able to be carried out. how could you hold the police accountable when they use force that is beyond that of the remit of their jobs. now that even the un has also criticized this law,

essentially saying the news media must be free to do their jobs. the government says this move is necessary because it's important to protect the police, protect the police at a time when they face unprecedented violence in doing their job. and police unions say that this law doesn't go far enough. they say that by the time this image is approved costing somebody is a rest stage. you need to take into account for doing that. then you know, those images could have been shared thousands and thousands of times more. so there are actually cooling for the law to be strengthened even further. now it may be one of west africa's most beautiful countries, but it's also one of the toughest places to eke out a living. next, we're going deep into togo. for a look beyond, the tristram was

a pandemic? no, certainly no borders, just blind to nationalities. is a little bit tricky. we took a back seat to judging commentary crisis with this system, things we can do better. we should be everyone is contributing. it's your own way, but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever. the challenge is great for the response. has been much so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we are in it together.

join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics. sports business, i'm showbusiness. i'll see you then. maybe your group will be more blood local. back by blue, blue, blue gobbler,

you'll owe me. but what i would want to do all of you, i would do, i'm your mother live because you don't know if i don't know woman. if you know your wallet, don't mean niigata. look for when i go up we got dog. i got me fact we have got to return, i got my own but if they're going with it would be a lot of the trail was in a well let me live, i like that too. if you needed.
