many countries in the west there will be no strict lockdown measures for this holiday season and that likely has to do with the russian health ministries latest achievement the president's order has been executed and vaccines but choose from aspects a nation would deliver today to every region in russia vaccination is the path we should take if we also break the spread of the disease now russia's prime minister has made it clear the vaccine is voluntary however it will be offered free of charge to all russian citizens medics teachers and social workers are at the front of the line to be vaccinated since their work is specifically high risk but we also heard from the prime minister that he promised 480000 vaccinations will be delivered across the country in december although inoculations have already begun in key regions like novosibirsk for example where medical workers have already taken the shot i know just people get to it stuff this way we're waiting for the vaccine and we're happy to be furious to know and to get the champ let's not forget

1:05 pm
here bronson from the alternative to germany policy told is the drug problem has deteriorated due to an insufficient response from the local authorities. the most important reason for this. trafficking is a very lenient city government they instructed police to turn a blind eye towards the drug dealers at gurlitz a park ethnic groups from africa most of them rejected asylum seekers not imported because into the north the acting the africans are acting out to go to a park and trying to make a living. down on illegal immigrants looking for decent work but as i said most of them rejected asylum seekers and should not be in this country secondly there are. activities. who are dominating certain areas and.
1:06 pm
there are very very well organized and organized crime and. their word is the law and this happens not just in berlin but also in other cities in germany. ballots are being cast across the united states as the electoral college for many votes for the country's next president put joe biden officially across the line as a total trompe still refusing to concede despite his floundering legal efforts to at the turn the results let's go live to new york incredible pain now can it get to see you now this chapter of the lengthy election process doesn't usually get this much attention but this is no ordinary year is that where all we've acts right now and has there been any reaction. well 2020 has certainly been a tumultuous year not just around the world but also in the united states there's been the situation with coded and now we also have the situation here with the u.s. presidential election now as folks may be aware the u.s.
1:07 pm
president is not elected by a popular vote it's actually the electoral college system where every state has a specific number of electoral votes they get together and the electoral college votes are assigned to candidates and the president is determined now at this point the electoral college vote has formally started and it is expected to favor joe biden based on the number of states that went to joe biden however it will be on january 6th when congress officially counts the electoral votes that that will be determines now at this point biden you know is in the lead he's expected to get the electoral votes and he's also ahead in the popular vote by roughly 7000000 votes but that does not stop donald trump from saying that the fight is not over and that he will continue to contest the vote this is donald trump. no it's not over we keep going and we're going to continue to go forward we have numerous local cases where you know in some of the states a good rig from the from us. now there was recently
1:08 pm
a supreme court ruling which seemed to pretty much de rail any efforts by trump and his supporters to overturn the election results basically the u.s. supreme court had a situation where texas was filing and attempting to invalidate the election results in georgia pennsylvania michigan and wisconsin this was backed by 17 republican party controlled states and 106 house republicans in the u.s. house of representatives the supreme court threw out the case they didn't they didn't proceed to hear the case they simply threw it out and so based on that the electoral college has now proceeded to go ahead and vote and now we have voices in texas that are calling for a union of law abiding states to be formed this is what we've heard from texas. the supreme court and tossing the texas lawsuit has decreed that a state can take unconstitutional actions and violate its own election law perhaps
1:09 pm
law abiding states should bond together and form a union of states that will abide by the constitution. now the divisions in the united states are becoming more intense there have been increasingly not only instances of intense political division but also instances of violence this weekend we saw a sex situation in olympia where a riot was declared one person was shot as a right wing organization known as the proud boys battled against left wing and activists there were clashes and this is one instance of many instances where we see left wing americans and right wing americans in the streets getting rough and physical with each other gunshots going off etc take a review. right .
1:10 pm
now at this point so with the electoral college proceeding to vote it appears joe biden will become the 46th president of the united states but the conclusion of the 2020 u.s. presidential election will not seem to really at this point unify the country the divisions are growing deeper there is an ideological divide there are geographic divides in the country a lot of instability a lot of distrust but it appears that the 2020 alexion is wrapping up joe biden is the winner and despite donald trump's refusal to accept the results it appears that joe biden will be sworn in this january i cannot thank you for that report that's been in new york. parts of france now where hospitality workers have gathered in

paris against prolonged lockdown measures which they say are crippling their industry although some restrictions were lifted on tuesday restaurants bars and cafes will have to stay shuts right across the holidays until the 20th of january they say it's threatening not only their livelihoods but also as they put it the french way of life earlier my colleague andrew farmer discusses with this with r.t. is that a solid to the ski who was out there processed. a lot. of individuals from a number of different sectors the restaurant cafe impost sector but also from the tourism sector too in those people who own entertainment venues like. venues both come out to tell the government they want to open up their business because they have had the most. in 2020 many of them saying they all go to bankruptcy with some recent report showing that some 90200 thousands almost of the business is.
1:12 pm
not saving saying that they could be closing up shop for good in the next 3 months things are really joyous i know there is a solidarity fund for businesses with up to $10000.00 euros per month or 20 percent of that from last year but many say that that is simply not enough on the cooling on the government to do. more for this is the government has provided financial assistance but not everyone meets the criteria some restauranteurs and hotel owners just recently opened and they're not receiving help there's not enough help anyway. so popular professor cicle if the problem isn't the government's not doing enough the problem is that restaurants are closed this is not normal there's no reason for a pandemic is not spreading from new research in france has proven that and restaurants a hot spot for the virus we've come here today not to demand help for the system we
1:13 pm
reopened for work i don't. know work expenses continue to multiply human but we don't have money to pay for it we don't have money for children to do just what we can to work but we still have to flee with the current economic balance is and if it's for life hope that they can demand money from us if we can't know the current situation here is concerning. the government there are almost 60000 individuals who have been considered to die as a result of 19 every day the infection rate is still around 10000 cases that is. what president carter was hoping it would be up to this point the government is starting a massive screening situation 18 some cities across france there have been criticisms of that and of course the new part sheen phase

1:16 pm
well almost $150.00 individuals were detained at the protests on saturday many of these detentions coming in the 1st hour or so of protests before it was really too much trouble and all of those detained 2 would journalists now there's been huge criticism about from many opposition sides also from human rights groups and journalists groups as well and that comes as the new press freedom index for 2020 shows that france is down the scale yet again it's now what number which for the world it was previously at number 32 and this is mainly due to how journalists were treated in 2019 the government says it is freedom of the press here in france but these ranking sure that that certainly is diminished in. trucks
