aspects of nation were delivered today to every region in russia vaccination is the path we should take if we also break the spread of the disease and 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 that 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 sputnik he has an over 90 percent efficacy rate the latest information coming out about it is very encouraging you know. not a single person who was injected by the vaccine got sick and unfortunately we had 20 severe cases of disease among those clinical trial participants who got placebo
12:03 am
as already noted we collected the data based 122000 volunteers who were injected with the sputnik the vaccine twice the vaccines efficiency of more than 90 percent is the greatest achievement of the galileo institute is crucially important the actual age as many people as possible really know that. logistical issues use motion national spoken can really requires minus. a huge story which basically does minus 3. so it's really been. if you're called distribute but interest on political symbol for a very simple reason it can be distributed through the call sheet that was developed in russia and in many other countries for so-called black compilers policy we along with doctors and distributors know how to deal. for all of that
12:04 am
minus legion each person who we kill the notion 8 will be the last person left for the disease we'll be one more person who belong into social solidarity against the disease we all know that they are more than a monster. often as a vaccination so you don't need to wait for 23 months i believe that if you combine a vaccine the social disapproval yourself is on the shelf you really can see results very fast. you keep posting photos no elsewhere to date admissible abuse human rights and media groups have attacked new french police policies at the weekends mass rallies against a new security bill 140 people were arrested including 2 journalists as he shouted to ben's got the story. so today's protest against the draw floors on security and in trying republicans value so police deploy new crowd control tactics.
12:05 am
essentially. grab security forces mashing into the protests and grabbing out individuals who they think may be troublemakers nearly 150 people were detained provoking anger from some that describe these detentions as being arbitrary this saturday december 12th a number of observers. inadmissible abuse linked to a deployment of brutal police and military offices and the infringement of the right to demonstrate that includes mass arrests on justify charging to break up a procession and detention without legitimate reason beyond legal limits it was just protesters being detained lists were also taken in one was suspected of
12:06 am
planning to street violence refusing to obey a police dispersal order and covering their face now given the current mood in france with concerns being raised about press freedom there are fears in some quarters that this is a slippery slope. to mature that the strategy of paris police force is to dissuade people from protesting and this is unacceptable the main aim of this strategy is to cast doubt on the right to protest in fact many people got arrested for no apparent reason whatsoever this is some kind of communication complained to persuade people that the government has stopped a violent and aggressive actions but they did not and this is unbearable. it comes as the latest press freedom index shows that france has dropped down the list among the concerns include problems for reporters covering demonstrations having
12:07 am
their equipment confiscated and being injured the protests not just by the police but even by demonstrators themselves some toyman's there is also a red flag over judicial investigations and attempts to force journalists to reveal their contacts the french government says it respects press freedoms but these new tactics and the detention of journalists is likely to add to the fury. when some warning that the list of any admissible abuses is growing by the day. somebody will ski r.t. . washington's impose sanctions on turkey over its purchase of russia's s 400 surface to air missile system but angry president there and says he hopes for better treatment from a nato ally. not what we expect supports not sanctions from our nato
12:08 am
ally the united states of america in our battle against terrorist organizations and forces that have plans for our region. turkey is a valued ally and an important regional security partner for the united states and we seek to continue our decades long history of productive defense sector cooperation by removing the obstacle of turkeys as 400 possession as soon as possible so the embargo target turkey's defense industry officials whose assets will be frozen and their visas restricted russia's foreign minister says the move breaks international law but goes on to say as well that he's not surprised. this is of course another example of arrogance towards international law a manifestation of illegitimate unilateral coercive measures that the united states has been using for many years even decades left and right and of course it doesn't increase u.s. or thora t. on the international arena where it is
12:09 am
a responsible participant in the international division of labor including military and technical cooperation. and russia's s. $400.00 defense system last year washington had threatened to punish turkey ever since closing the systems a danger that nato but historian gerald holmes says it all comes down to money. the only way for turkey to satisfy washington would be to surrender sovereignty and basically to the 51st u.s. state turkey wants to buy this it's $400.00 system from russia united states does not want turkey to do so because in many ways nature was just a weapons racket it's just a way for member states to pour money into their own estates. complex military materiel from u.s. contractors like raytheon and boeing and all the rest turkey no longer wants to participate in that racket and they're in the conflict with regard to nato
12:10 am
the expansion of nato for example to the former soviet republic of georgia made not only be to target moscow it may be in itself to target turkey as well following an expulsion of short from nato or putting further pressure or nato with regard to accepting georgia as a nato member this is a very serious conflict. across the us members of the electoral college have cost the votes in officially handed joe biden victory in the presidential election however donald trump says his legal challenge over alleged vote fraud is not out of it meantime the trumpet ministrations attorney general has resigned he earlier found no evidence of widespread election fraud caleb maupin wraps it up then from new york this morning. donald trump is still not conceding donald trump says he is the legitimate winner of the 2020 election no it's not over
12:11 am
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 a last ditch effort to try and to try and you know win the white house for trump in the supreme court and we saw the state of texas file to have the results in the state of georgia in pennsylvania michigan and wisconsin overturned based on allegations of fraud the supreme court opted not to hear the case they threw it out of court and as a result today's electoral college voting proceeded and there was a vote and it joe biden has pulled ahead as the clear winner of that vote with a clear majority now in the aftermath of the supreme court turning down trumps trumps proposal and trumps case and the texas intervention we saw leaders of the texas republican party talk about the need to form some kind of union of what they're referring to as a law abiding states to the supreme court and tossing the texas lawsuit has decreed
12:12 am
that a state can take unconstitutional actions and violate its own election law perhaps law abiding states should bond together and form a union of states that will abide by the constitution now divisions in the united states are intensifying there have been repeated clashes between the left wing and right wing protesters across the country just this weekend we saw crowds of proud boys that's a right wing organization clashing with left wing activists and there was violence the police actually declared the situation g.-o. riot after shots were fired.
12:13 am
it's pretty clear that on january 20th joe biden will be sworn in as the 46th president of the united states it'll be on january 6th that congress approves the electoral college votes and that seems to be pretty unstoppable at this point however that's unlikely to reunify the country there's a lot of distrust a lot of anger a lot of animosity from supporters feel this election was stolen from them trump's opponents are still very angry about things that have gone on over the last 4 years and it's very unlikely that the inauguration of joe biden is going to simply heal these wounds a lot of deep divisions in us society and legal and media on this line will told us the u.s. electoral college system only stands up these days to vote to guess practice to i'm going to be the president of the united states what is defeat number of states i can win to get 270 electoral votes to not desire really the biggest state but
12:14 am
they normally comprise in terms of size. out of the 50 states you would need to only win 11 this was done in 2012 the number may have changed somewhat but just think about this 11 states the biggies california new york etc and it would comprise 27 percent of the popular vote and you could be president you want to target or try that one on for size the idea of this is simply this you are and it's not that you are voting in the old days nobody could trusted the citizen to understand the complexity of the of this the founding fathers didn't want necessarily senators to vote but they thought that we were just too too busy with plowing and herding cattle to understand this that's why the electors would meet oftentimes while after the election because it took so long for them to get to their state capitals it seems archaic it seems anachronistic but there's any credible brilliance and this b.s.
12:15 am
if you're the winner it balances out if you're the loser is entered the lovy and it's archaic it's antiquarian his ass a fight so it depends on whose ox is gored but i love the system i just love because it's part of who we are confused and screwed up. pos they are if you want to call this morning folks take the time to be with us we're going to head well this is among the stories says mainstream outlets publish a fresh outlandish scheme of russian plotting against opposition figure election of only rigs on with those claims you're watching r.t. international. the world is driven by a dream shaped by one person. who
12:16 am
dares thinks. we dare to ask. every dollar a project going forward because it champions or by this account chicanery and fraud project an accounting of quantitative easing goes into something called the c.p.i. consider a similar price index so that the value of that money printing will now dave base the currency for real and this is going to be the deal and the game doesn't work because once the full inflation genie is out of the bottle you can't put it back into the bottle.
12:17 am
again for mainstream media outlets and i published a huge investigation claiming to trace the russian security offices who followed the opposition figure election of only since 2017 but it appears to raise more questions than answers to as a senior correspondent goes to explains. on monday c.n.n. dispy girl and several other outlets premiered their latest hit tales about how a dozen russian f.s.b. agents tailed live on the for years and so incompetent were they that the script writers claimed they managed to identify them their phone numbers there every step their calls that tax their addresses they even uncovered a prior deadly plot to poison the barley with one of the most toxic substances known to man move a chalk hero see forgot about it he remembered just a few days ago jus to a clumsy mistake by russian intelligence his wife took the hit she apparently felt
12:18 am
terrible dreadful like never before so she went for a nap. apparently cured her alexina valmy believes that the mysterious sickness his wife describes is very similar to the feeling of impending death that he experienced on board the airplane on 20th august after being poisoned with no for chuck aside from the comically incompetent russian spies and agents who somehow for many years fooled the world into thinking that they weren't clowns and aside from the valleys amazing resistance to being killed i mean this guy would put bugs bunny or the road runner to shame aside from that what really stood out in this claim that the laughably useless russians have a nano substance which removes all traces of chemical weapons which they somehow forgot to use of the problems of chemical and climbed the 2800 invention of
12:19 am
numbness or been set for removing traces of chemical weapons from infected sites crucially at least one member of the f.s.b. squat is in frequent contact with a scientist from this institute now my big question in all of this is about it all looking reading and sounding like fanfiction or cia agents daydream about how he would have. moves the russians it be applauded by his peers my big question is about you know whether any of it's true because there are 2 explanations in the 1st one is that these journalists were given the entire page the data by western intelligence agencies because they sure as heck didn't find it in the dark net as novelli alluded that's a lie and you don't find the geolocation data of f.b.i. agents cell phones on the dark net which is pretty horrendous it would mean western intelligence agencies and journalists are in cahoots the 2nd explanation is that this i open an exposé is about as worthless as the last one hospital tests show
12:20 am
that the russian opposition leader alexina found he was poisoned by a nerve agent from the north so a few days ago british pundits claim that russian spies tried to poison the valley again while he was in a coma i mean how hard would it be he's right there literally in a coma if you wanted to kill him you really really couldn't miss and this latest grad investigation claims that the last grad investigation was well made up note also that there is no data about any offense be poisonous reside in an ohm square novel that was there in the hospital therefore the rumor that f.s.b. ages could possibly have poisoned him again and omsk which was distributed by the times is not true this is what you call open ended. law and social distancing to become synonymous of my with
12:21 am
a pandemic but many parents are now worried just how a lack of social interactions affecting their children's mental health my daughter has seen more giraffes at the zoo when she's seen other kids ages 23 and 4 a really important for learning how to share learning how to play outside what isn't she getting by not being able to run around the neighborhood with his friends . good question well the cambridge university study furnace statistically significant increase in depression among children after looked at us psychology expert catherine hirsch price it told us the effect of the restrictions often depends on the age of the children so i think it's very important for young children to play with peers when they clearly peers that's how they learn how to share it's how they learn how to navigate the social environment for the children who are in the floor 56 who are there definitely remember this time once we tell them it is safe to be with people again then i suspect they will work hard to
12:22 am
overcome it because we gravitate toward this like a magnetic poor to people so i think we'll be irate some of the older children. who are maybe in middle school and high school for then this is truly such a difficult period because they're with peers are the time some will probably go through exacerbated mental issues that we're going to want to deal with and so we have to be quipped at the end to help these children learn to feel safe with the children of their age meantime as the british government allows public services to stay open even in areas hardest hit by the pandemic it's been revealed that prime minister boris johnson was warned by top health officials that easing measures for christmas would spark a 3rd wave a relaxation of restrictions on social contact combined with the natural desire to
12:23 am
celebrate inevitably increases the spread of the virus whilst we are not at this point asking for a change in the proposed christmas rules we are concerned that the current public debate on those rules is ignoring the significant extra risk involved. new 3 tier system came into force on december the 2nd in england with many parts of the southeast including london now being moved into the top alert level about this 3rd tier is applied to regions where the infection rate is highest while it strictly prohibits households mixing with each other and allows restaurants or bars to open for takeaway and the livery only all of the shops and public services can remain open that includes everything from beauty salons to gyms and churches. as new daily corona virus infections remain high and officials have even confirmed new variant of the virus has been detected national health service chiefs say they warned the government back in september about easing out of lockdown restrictions at the time
12:24 am
the n.h.s. was reportedly treating around 500 covert 1000 patients but by december 10th that figure of saud's about 13000 patients we spoke to a british senior clinical lecture about the importance of safety measures in a month associated with families of course coming together the irises their case numbers out there we need to have a very restricted christmas what is important is that you are honest and believable and trusted and you tell your people that we have a problem it is not possible to meet on 23rd 24th 25th of december however very soon in the new year it will become possible so that is being truthful and honest and you explain to people that the vaccines are coming and when the vaccines are coming and most people have been immunized it will be safer easier and better to meet up you don't want to be raising your glasses to say a we miss our departed friends. yes
12:25 am
a quandary nimble that sits so far this tuesday morning from moscow and coming up to 25 minutes past the hour thanks for watching i'm kevin though in for me in the rest of the team whatever you do today have a great day. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics or business i'm showbusiness i'll see you there. every dollar for it to go forward because. by the account chicanery and fraud
12:26 am
fraudulent accounting of quantitative easing goes into something called the c.p.i. consumer price index so that the value of that money based the currency for real this is going to be. as it were because. inflation genie is out of the bottle you can't put it back into the bottle. and in the 1996 something happened different a company called purdue pharmaceuticals came out with a drug called oxycontin and they started. and falsely promoted that opioids rearly addict maybe only one percent of the time could you get it addicted to no. that was not true then and it is not true and never was true that was a false statement and the other companies jumped on the bandwagon of making money
12:27 am
in the false lies spread in the false marketing spread that they are guilty of lying about these tricks they cause this. i believe with every fiber of my being. back in 1906 the 1st promotional at campaign for it was broadcast and we found it. we don't because we're wrong in thinking that opioids can't be used long term they can be and they should be we used to think they'd stop working all the patients would become addicts or they'd be sent to. these 6 cases show how wrong those views were. cation. addiction despite its high concentration.
12:28 am
treatment usually reserved for patients. without. really enjoy. pain medication i have not missed one day of work this medication does not turn you into a zombie it has turned me into an active person again. whereas addiction is the 1st. farmer. some patients may be afraid of taking opioids because they are perceived as too strong or addictive but that is far from actual fact. less than one percent of patients taking opioids actually become addicted. since 1988 doctors have observed
12:29 am
patients developing addiction yet in this internal memo a laboratory keeps on encouraging us representatives to cost that miracle pill using bonuses premiums and all sorts of gadgets in only 5 years oxycontin went from 600000 prescriptions a year to more than 6000000. nowadays 30 pharma is the 1st company standing it is used in the lawsuit filed by the state of oklahoma in order to prove its responsibility the team relies on doc to collage me. in the 1st 6 years of the river lease of oxycontin produce sponsored $20000.00 educational programs across the united states they gave money to the professional societies to advocate for more opioids the organization that regulates hospitals took money from them the organization that regulates doctors in different states took money from
12:30 am
them from all of these different directions we were told to prescribe much more the opioid lobby the manufacturers and distributors of opioids spent 880 $1000000.00 over a 10 year period the walking efforts for more cautious prescribing that they spent 8 times more than the gun lobby in the united states in has spent in trying to block gun regulations. the manufacturers of opiates are spending more money trying to block regulations on opioids. and is disseminated year after year during that time the epidemic takes root hidden in the shadows for so long the addiction of a 1000000 american citizens suddenly comes to light these days with the most people showing up for treatment.
