times being counted $8.00 to $10.00 times the noise was returning to the shorter cells using the. transponder further angered by accusations of massive mainstream media bias as tapes of c.n.n. briefings leaked by a conservative group. i've been on these call there's no diversity of opinion nobody objects nobody challenges. a warm welcome you're watching the weekly here on r.t. international can you all the latest along with a roundup of the stories that shape the week it's great to have you with us. now to france where demonstrators tore through the streets for a 2nd consecutive weekend setting fire to vehicles and smashing shops and banks a server security bill to stop the public from filming police officers responded

with tear gas more than 60 protesters were arrested nationwide and several police injured a show do both report. well you can probably see behind me it's already getting pretty good here in paris was burning and you can hear the tear gas that's being left all 4 were in the middle of it at the moment and. streaming the we've already seen clashes between the police and the protesters at the very start of this protest police being pelted with the
2:03 am
room next with glass bottles with pink paint and then them responding with the tear gas. but if i just trying to extinguish a number of fires that is being set these the fires of cause all alone in this street there are at least 3 or 4 vehicles that have been completely tool watched so you just have to move because the feelings are from the can a little bit too close for comfort but this protest still going on this is one of rhinitis protests in france and against the global security law a law that's been much criticized not just by journalists and citizens and n.g.o.s but also by the european union and by the un many including your specialty move
2:04 am
independent investigative the u.n. saying this is incompatible with international human rights law and they've called the whole law to be written we know at the moment. that only one part of that law is going to be written that is article $24.00 but protesters say that that's not enough. so i would just get him in court and tear gas here just to have a look it's just been released by the police officers as they're trying to control the situation so the firefighters can do their job have you know many of the people who are against article 24 and the global security will say the problem we think is that there has been this is semi issues in terms of violence within the police force and if succes can't say for example that filling police officers will be no
2:05 am
evil to show police brutality and not be problematic just outside the bank that was completely smashed up by some of the demonstrators you can see that a scooter or a motorcycle outside was there the bank itself was smashed people went inside they took the furniture from inside the bank brought it out and then they set these fires up outside the bank you see completely and utterly have trashed this particular bank that there have been other businesses that have been trashed like this on this street here in paris and we've also seen a number of causes as well there has been huge violence from the protesters towards the police to know that there is anger in the police generally that they feel that they reason enough protection for them they say they face this incredible threat to protest like this but generally in their job they face huge of months of threats and violence against them and they would actually like to see the laws strengthened
2:06 am
musos so there's a real divide between what police want and what many public groups in lists and n.g.o.s are calling full. and solid mention that the french government's agreed to rewrite part of the controversial deal we discussed with guests why the pledge hasn't come to the situation. this is not about taking pictures all video footage of demonstrations it is about showing the faces of the police after airing these charges they should you know blurred the pictures to the face of the policeman that's normal that should be expected because now with the with the social networks you have so many threats against policemen because they do their job and it can step families something should be found it's a pity that article $24.00 that was so badly written in the law that was badly prepared by the government of stakes because not to see what happens in paris and.
2:07 am
everybody the world that is terrible for president my cross reputation they have to be she must have had serious and example of violence would make a lot of the president and. his black finagles badly beaten by the police and that was on the placebo because that it was that's how we know about. it so they didn't have to be feeding the idea of goods the problem of again the police as to the separately that you know this government is supposedly but in fact is very very a precedent never seen such cheapish in the months creation. that's on the. list. that's been timed all those full covert i mean it's the price the russians but make the vaccine internationally as it was presented to the u.n. general assembly on wednesday moscow wants the job to be available to the whole
2:08 am
welton has already agreed deliveries abroad. we will be producing millions of dollars as always are we seeing already starting from. the job in brazil china korea and argentina we'll read you reach supply agreement and production agreement was those countries well the 40 countries are looking to buy sputnik the yet many western critics have already written off the russian vaccine daniel hawkins examines why. the media today is full of big headlines pfizer's covert 19 vaccine is officially the 1st to be approved in a western country with the united kingdom leading the way there's a sense of excitement that lives can be saved on the 1st steps towards codewords final defeat have been taken i would like to pay tribute to him to who made this possible it is the protection of vaccines that were ultimately allow us to reclaim
2:09 am
our lives and get our economy moving again this is a victory but the real winner in the race for a covert job has been vaccine protectionism to many in western media under stablish meant only western produced vaccines can even be considered as part of a global solution to the pandemic and now there are a break from that's developed is that seen as a seneca high as pfizer makes a final push drug company pfizer says it is a great day for science c.e.o. pfizer tweeting out his congratulations to you this is really a historic day we have pfizer we are take you up while the european medicines agency has confirmed it's in contact with the developers of sport mcvie the e.u. has also been clear it doesn't recommend any e.u. state makes up its own mind about importing the vaccine even if they wanted to the reason strong lobby against vaccines that are being developed outside the european union but that's life we're already used to it and it's in hungary is interest to
2:10 am
get a say vaccine as quickly as possible hungary is a. alone this has been global since the sputnik viz existence was 1st announced back then media and members of the scientific community were quick to criticize russia for failing to provide public data on the vaccine safety and even when phase one and 2 clinical trial data it was later published in the lancet skepticism mistrust and suspicion of were still rife at any mention of sport mcvie moscow has been accused of cutting corners using spies to steal western research russia rushed to register it as a world 1st raising eyebrows in the scientific community putin this might be his personal back through plenty even here still need persuading that sputnik is a reliable choice there's always room for healthy skepticism and critical thinking as with any new vaccine but it seems some require slightly more scrutiny than others take my den or the company has requested emergency approval from the
2:11 am
american and european regulators for its vaccine 10 days before that pfizer and biotech sought the same clearance for their job yet neither company has publicly released full data from late stage clinical trials for peer review in any medical journal and it's not just about peer review moscow's been clear it's open to international cooperation on covert vaccination to save lives and to win the battle against corona virus we are ready to cooperate with others in terms of vaccination particularly on the council of europe platform the cruellest pandemic has made it clear that europeans need to unit in the face of common threats these offers appear to fall on their fears whether it's a deep mistrust or the belief that sport nick views just the way for putin to gain political approval truly joint efforts to find a vaccine never materialized this is probably of little concern to develop states most will really have brought up the majority of vaccine surprise produced by their
2:12 am
own companies while the rest of the world is unlikely to get access to the vaccine . for years to come vaccine protectionism has truly try out with only western produce the vaccines touted as world saving despite being unavailable to most and many alternatives trash them dismissed from the outset the world never really stood a chance at making the united stand against coronavirus this isn't a competition between ourselves it's about doing the best for our world for the global population and that we must all work together to get vaccines distributed i think there was a very good paper that was published in the peer review journal about the russian vaccine a long sit the general issue about the rush to produce vaccines has been that many of the vaccines have been presented in press releases rather than in peer reviewed papers it's important that when you're doing clinical trials that these are reported properly i know that the sputnik vaccine is being trialled in india now as
2:13 am
well and that's a great thing it's about sharing the responsibility we all have to ensure all vaccines are safe effective and that we share them particularly in parts of the world that are going to struggle like developing countries where we need to be helping with large populations and into the they had the pharmaceutical company responsible for the month rollout of nick they told us that western skepticism is groundless. what has happened is placed in experts say that russians are rushing with a vaccine since any back seeming has to be tried and tested by a fairly long period of time and that we've done everything so fast national government can win a western counterparts make statements we need to look very closely at who is saying it and exactly what they are saying for example they frequently complain that the gamma layer institute hasn't published enough data and so all of the same time we should realize that gemmell is just a research institute is not a pharmaceutical giant like astra zeneca or pfizer a lot of p.r.
2:14 am
specialists are usually presenting the data selectively and in a favorable light of setting is how realistic is it to prove that the vaccine is safe. at this point we've seen convincing dates of the proof put in it really is safe it was proven during pre-clinical animal testing please consider that i'm talking about safety now not effectiveness then it was proven during clinical trials on healthy volunteers we've done all that statistics to show that the vaccine is safe. more news coming your way off this very short break stay with us. but i think israel has. genuinely and to some extent in a manipulative way. feared any strong state in the region
2:15 am
and iran in that sense is a psycho political threat. more of them than i think a material when it's used to be material carette is used to manipulate in part the israeli public which is very divided now and they need symbols of unity and one of them is the iran threat. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then.
2:16 am
welcome back to new york attorney general has disclosed several police body camera videos detailing the deaths of 2 black men off their encounters with law enforcement and that's it to increase transparency please be aware that what you're about to show you see is some distressing. thank you. 11 videos were released showing the deaths of daniel proved truly haulage both men were in custody and died of us fixation as officers attempted to subdue them autopsies later found drugs had also played a role in the deaths and what's become a familiar response protests emerged over the over both the deaths on the wider issue of heavy handed policing since the spring communities across america and abroad have seen similar scenes spurred by the black lives matter and movements some of which have been turned violent. was that
2:17 am
work of the tank it was me. work i thank i am thanking. community advocates and former new york police officer corey pags believes technology advances are a game changer for transparency. paris paris used to queue success you have to understand prior to this technology of cell phones and call cameras all over the place police were able to control the narrative we would hear that and come out and say such and such reach for fire on board try to fight us we ended up you know use of an hour weapon to kill him and it would be justified because we
2:18 am
couldn't even question but now to transfer of technology that now a new fresh change in even still with technology police unions and police departments around america still trying to convince people going to police are right in these instances in that these 2 particular incident innocent incidents yes drugs played a part but that's fixie ation it's not a drop. of a rally for republican senators in the state of georgia donald trying to double down on claims the election was rigged and they too can still win. ah his supporters have been holding still the still protests throughout the week in various states trump also tweeted he would have won if state democrat governess were on his side oh this is well people have come forward claiming voter fraud oxys
2:19 am
don't course and looks at how the r.p. taishan of us elections as a whole is being honest. is only about a month left until the big transition of power in the white house and yet it looks like the battle for the presidency 2 is not yet over this may be the most important speech i've ever made i want to provide an update on our own going efforts to expose the tremendous voter fraud and irregularities which took place during the ridiculous li lo nov 3rd elections if we are right about the fraud. joe biden can't be president trump is sticking to his guns still insisting he was cheated out of the election and calling on the supreme court to overturn the results his lawyers though have yet to prove their case and the justice department says the current administration is full of baloney so what is it that the trumpet ministration is making such a fuss about while in new york one u.s.p.s. driver claimed
2:20 am
a trailer with thousands of ballots disappeared into thin air i know it's sold with return addresses filled out thousands of them all in wisconsin an x. postal worker even claimed his coworkers were ordered to backdate the ballots u.s.p.s. employees were ordered to backdate ballots that were received too late to be lawfully counted ballots in liveries in the middle of the night people filling in the blank ballots for by misplacing duplicate souther wisconsin poll workers claim similar violations as well as the widely shared testimony from this michigan election contractor who claimed she blew the lid off some dodgy dealings in detroit there was. back as the ballots being real. through that have been waiting machines numerous times being counted 8 to 10 times her testimony has already been put through the wringer of public opinion and the justice department's also made up its mind about these claims we have not seen fraud on a scale that could have affected a different outcome in the election the thing is though the d.o.j.
2:21 am
won't say why what does raise the eyebrows of conservative officials all we're asking for is own where there is evidence of improper impropriety that you examine and we want the transparency we want to understand is investigation going on. what kind of investigation what are you looking for for years americans have been told evil russian meddling is undermining democracy and now that biden seems to have won the election there's not so much as a whisper on that front that the russians really just decide to sit out this very important election or perhaps the very system itself is at fault here it's clear that these elections are corrupt through and through but not for the reasons that donald trump highlights the corrupt are going through because there's an electoral college that does not recognize the popular vote there's already a complete lack of trust people do not respect the electoral college most americans can't even explain the electoral college provide any type of justification or logic
2:22 am
for which there is none many americans don't even participate in presidential elections because they understand that it's. a choice between 2 oppresses for the next 4 years between tweedle dee tweedle dum trump is just expose the system from the right in created these fissures that have long existed. first off c.n.n. biased against donald trump 1000 what a us conservative group has called the least tapes of conference calls held by the news network and one clip released by project veritas a c.n.n. special correspondent is her describing how she had been advised by lawmakers to avoid giving trump too much act time. the i just keep your interest in being. one who have not and those who. buy in. but are. known to have been democrats and. there may have to
2:23 am
be you know racial. you're incurable and. of. not being too much of a life form are you why are you thinking. well forward the correspondent has not commented on the tapes or however the network's communications team has tweeted that project veritas may have broken the law by snooping on it starts and i have referred the case to law enforcement the communications manager for project veritas ask my colleague soundscape taylor his views on the tapes and whether he fears legal action. you hear the outgoing president of c.n.n. jeff zucker dictating to his hosts reporters editors and producers what the news will be not based on whether it is true not based on whether it's important
2:24 am
but whether or not it fits jeff zucker's world view and personal political agenda there's no diversity of opinion nobody objects nobody challenges c.n.n. did react very quickly on twitter no doubt said that is going to get your enforcement involved my question is are you ready and t. think the door is on your side i don't believe for a minute that the police are to come knocking on our door everything that project veritas does is legal we have a very well trained and very well paid legal staff and i'm highly confident that everything we did was within the legal guard rails you know and no one has called us from from law enforcement that's just something they said that tweet came from cnn's p.r. staff and i think you can call that a p.r. stunt and i want to ask you one of the tables what todd and and you'll private discussions with that is his workspace would you support it as well don. who who is
2:25 am
objecting c.n.n. i mean they ran secretly recorded tapes of 1st lady malani a trump just weeks ago they were in the access hollywood tapes they ran tapes secretly recorded of mitt romney when he was the 2012 republican candidate for president the idea that c.n.n. is suddenly upset. about somebody were chris secretly recording a meeting or a conference call and put and putting out to the public that's absolutely absurd. the leaks also were paid to show c.n.n. chief jeff zucker ordering employees not to normalize trunks claims on the election legal or media analyst lionel told us he believes that news outlets which shout the most about the impartiality usually show than least. so the question is what role did o'keefe play because if he if he just got the number himself and somebody let's just gave it to him and he dialed in himself never being
2:26 am
a part of us i think you may have legal problems but this is weird because now we have zoom cause and now we have new areas of conversation and conference it's not a one on one conversation and don't forget lionel's law the law always lags behind technology if we had done the same thing let's say to our stocks or an actor or a n or something i'll bet you we would maybe hear something maybe not as blatant as that but certainly a journalistic bias and there are other people who say this is the brand the idea of you tuning in to c.n.n. you want to hear a liberal anti trump stuff i'm sorry but that's a fact so be true to the bank brand to the shareholders they have to produce but here's the thing which is amazing when you look at people who go out of their way to see we're in the news we're unbiased fair and balanced is this in essence a form of trademark law is this perjury to say enjoy any kind of liability for
2:27 am
misleading the consumer if i tell you something is 100 calories but it's 200 you better believe i may get a lawsuit well if i'm lying about the content why shouldn't it apply otherwise watch this being addressed in the courts coming up. happy having a wonderful day so far we'll be back with more in 30 minutes we'll see you back. always be polite never engage with the negs baited or confrontational. don't get into any conversation or start answering questions just desperate search . for survivors.
2:28 am
definitely don't want to. jump. you're more likely to walk free if you're rich guilty or if you're poor. you've got 2 eyes 2 ears and one now. so you should be seen in here and a whole lot more than you're saying if you don't take that advice easy going to dig yourself. there. was a welcome to all the part if there is one area where i don't know trump will leave
2:29 am
a lasting mark it's in the middle it's under his leadership in us policy has shat its last pretenses of balance and law abiding coming out as unabashedly pro israel and while the democrats there is no means to reading and downturns legacy are they likely to correct the course to discuss that i'm now joined by richard falk professor emeritus of international law at princeton university and formerly un special rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the palestinian. territories occupied since 1967 professor it's a great honor great pleasure for me to talk to you thank you very much for finding the time i'm happy to be here thank you for having let me start with this very long title that you had while serving for 2 terms as the un special rapporteur and the situation of human rights in to palestinian territories occupied
2:30 am
since 1967 is quite a mouthful it's hard to memorize it without an autocue but i suppose it was one of those titles that was intent to be more than just a job description it was i thing on purpose trying to assert this certain vision a certain view of history were there and i'm when you are being confirmed well knows that that was the general israeli objection to the mandate altogether but as far as i know they didn't object to the terminology of acute territory in that context. and the purpose for this typically un cumbersome way of describing the position i think reflected the worry that.
