so you violated your own instructions against vaccinating children. you ready to kill your entire family for the sake of a new vaccine i wasn't going to kill them but prove that the vaccine is completely safe. northern england londoners fleeing. to get reaction to that from people. who are pretty irresponsible by just packing everyone on the trains i'm really not sure. about a break. from moscow thanks for joining us tonight our. welcome to the park. u.s. president elect joe biden is vying to respond to the recent u.s. government agencies which he's strongly suggesting was carried out by russia and was used to lax leadership by donald trump. initial indications including from

secretary pump a 0 secretary of state attorney general william barr suggest that russia russia is responsible for this breach this assault happened on donald trump's watch when he wasn't watching it still has a responsibility as president to to defend american interests for the next 4 weeks . rest assured that even if he does not take it seriously i will joe biden used his speech for the holidays to americans as president elect to blame donald trump for much of what is wrong in the country and not surprisingly once again russia seems to be the scapegoat as the united states transitions from one presidential administration to another now joe biden essentially argued that russia was responsible for an alleged hack in which a number of federal agencies in the united states as well as u.s.

companies had their data compromised and he said that donald trump had been responsible for weakening u.s. cyber security and that he would reverse those policies and he also promised there would be a response to russia's activity we don't sit here and say we're going to strike you the nuclear weapons. so let us to term with the extent of the damage use and i promise you who responds now joe biden seems to be taking some speculations as fact no proof has ever been presented that russia is responsible for this and we've already heard from problem spokesman dmitri pesca who said that russia was not involved and that the country is not involved in any such attacks generally now furthermore it's interesting to note donald trump said that it could be china who was responsible for the attack and that blame always seems to be the priority in response to instances like this the cyber attack is far greater in the

fake news media than in actuality i have been fully briefed and everything is well under control russia russia russia is the priority chance when anything happens because lame she media is for mostly financial reasons petrified of discussing the possibility that it may be shina it may earlier biden's pick for secretary of energy said that biden's team really has no idea who is behind the attack we don't know fully. what happened the extent of it and frankly we don't know fully for sure who did it but it seems these other voices are not being heard as members of both the democratic and republican camps in the united states are rushing to blame russia once again as the united states faces a transition of power from wanted ministration in the white house to another fears of russia are being asked late it. live now to was but executive director of the us libertarian party's national committee thanks for joining us good to have in the program today russia's been blamed once again for the u.s.

facilities washington has been quite reluctant to release that evidence publicly at least what you think the certainty that it is a moscow has come from. so biden comes out and says the russian hack happened on donald trump's watch when he wasn't watching that's what president biden says and to me that sounds like he's still in campaign mode he needs to be in presidential mode i can imagine donald trump is hard to work with but we need an adult in the room and we need for president elect biden to prepare to lead our country into work towards peace with other nations not trying score more political points at the expense of poor foreign relations so when you say boyden is still a campaign as opposed to presidential mode obviously he's ready some sort of

reaction when he takes over the white house do you think what he's saying is just an attempt to score political points before his inauguration all of these promises will actually amount to something to to some for action. it's too soon to say he's definitely trying to score political points keep in mind. a lot of us here in america and russia we grew up thinking nuclear war was inevitable we thought not only would it happen but both sides would lose and probably the whole world would suffer and many people would die we should be thanking god every day that there never was a nuclear war worldwide and instead of trying to rekindle the cold war and create animosity between science we should be trying to work together so i don't know for sure what president elect biden has in mind he could be stuck in the cold war mentality and needs to be pulled out of that that's what i hope some of his

newer advisors will do if he has any such are now you said it's too early to say and it probably is so we do have a few weeks left until we do see some sort of formative foreign policy but. trump took office he was viewed by a lot of mainstream media critics as the kremlin's cabinet somebody who would go easy on russia yet we saw sanctions rolled out structural another against moscow during the trumpeter ministration do you think then we can see more of the same under a government. unfortunately yes i think you will see more of the same. americans like to blame others for problems rather than look inside our own country and see what we might have done that made our own security or our own economy worse now president trump true russia wasn't his 1st target he was usually complain about something mexico or china did now in the past president elect biden has probably

blamed russia for things he grew up during the cold war served for in congress throughout it but i hope you learned some lessons that hey war is not inevitable we don't have to be enemies we don't have to invade other countries going to bomb each other there are ways to be friends and we can start by being friendly ourselves. that there was a brief response in the us russian relations with the reset button which took place under a democratic ministration how likely do you think we ought to see something similar come in the new year old do you think in the comments i'm just going through you know the damage to what's a very complex relationship already. i think president elect biden has done damage already you know it in i think i really do think he's mostly focused on attacking president truman and trump makes it easy to not like him sometimes and

that you know he's resisting the the changeover and not being helpful he's certainly saying a lot of things in public that would clearly irritate the biden administration but i think again i think biden needs to be the adult in the room he needs to get over this get over trump realized that trump will be gone in a few months and he has a nation to lead in a world to work with and needs to tone down the rhetoric. was benedict's father libertarian boost of peace event for joining us so much on to you today good to have in the program. ok moving on now president trumps being asked by conservatives through veto the much for the over $900000000000.00 cobra relief bill because as well as a few $100.00 to help struggling americans there's a whole load of other spending plans thrown in which have nothing to do with the pandemic. spin taking a closer look at what the cash is actually being mocked for holloa the warring

sides in congress have finally set aside some of their differences and agreed to dish out $900000000000.00 in covert 19 relief for families and businesses but the $600.00 stimulus checks which are half of what people got back in april have left many underwhelmed runtime he meant $600.00. this is a joke and jobless no health insurance this isn't going to cut it congress listening some senators even took offense at people questioning their life saving bill oh it's real help. it's a trillion dollars for god's sakes what is that $1000000.00 and. there is no money fairy we don't have this money we don't have 5 percent of it sandra we had to borrow it is real help will it be enough i think it will be but we're just going to have to

wait and see what the code relief package didn't come alone the absence of the money fairy didn't stop congress from slapping on a $1.00 trillion dollar spending bill which combined with the covert bill made the overall document over 5 and a half 1000 pages long the behemoth took so long to upload to the internet the congressman only received it on the day of the vote and it's kind of hard to believe they managed to read the whole thing before passing it congress is expected to vote on the 2nd largest bill in u.s. history to buy 5 trillion dollars and as of about 1 pm members don't even have a legislative text of it yet for whuffie a congressional leaders refused to put any legislation on the floor to be considered and scrutinized and amended now they release a $5593.00 page bill with no opportunity to read it let alone amend it no responsible legislators should vote for such a thing. if you take a closer look at the bill you can see there's a lot more than covert relief in there military spending for example was more of

a talking point than the pandemic and words like missile aircrafts and munition appeared far more times than anything related to health care masks weren't even mentioned once in the document foreign aid also proved to be a high priority billions of dollars are said to be poured into countries like ukraine israel and cambodia funds that could have been spent on domestic needs and then there's a whole bunch of other issues that were deemed very crucial like ensuring the integrity and fairness of the election sorry horse racing how could that sport survive without money from the government also investing in general programs is something the u.s. just can't do without be it programs in pakistan or commissions on determining gender equality in statues and even the dialogue reincarnation gets mentioned in the bill because in case you forgot he can't get reincarnated without u.s. taxpayer dollars this jumbled mess of spending proposals caused even some senators to trash the bill tonight i voted no against the suppose it could relieve bill

because it sells out billions of dollars to foreign governments the sudan. more important than the american citizens and while trump is expected to sign the document later this week many are already calling on him to veto the bill don't you must veto of these false. leave boo this isn't a stimulus big huge this is a message for. every american left and right should be calling for a veto on the stimulus deal which provides more funding to foreign governments and to american. than to their merican people covert relief might be badly needed but while 600 bucks my do some good for americans in a tough spot senators are obviously willing to put a lot more money behind their own agendas. a legal analyst on call and there's a lot else as efforts would be better spent i mean lockdowns that of paying out to

fix the consequences if you look where the expenditures went look we know what this is this is nothing but a con it's a ruse it's a chance to to provide special interests and special issues the money that normally wouldn't be able to be earmarked this is guaranteed to provide monies that would normally not be able to be available but now they are which is a christmas tree the idea is that you take something you slap on benefits and expenditures and bills but america needs something so we hold the american public hostage in the meantime they get a pittance of what they would normally gotten before but maybe rather than giving all this money for covert relief why don't we just remove the lockdowns wonder we removed the shackles because businesses are under these more draconian measures why don't you do that instead as just give money here's your 600 bucks maybe 1200 bucks

now leave me alone be happy and shut up or farmers aren't astra zeneca. have launched a clinical trial a joint trial of the corona virus vaccine famous to combine elements of the jobs that upped individually by the 2 sides artes and on cross offs he spoke with alexander ginzburg the director of the into shoots about just how the vaccine differs from others. we develop a vaccine from the start of receiving funding to registration really quite quickly in 5 months the main reason is that for 25 years or more we have been developing at the gum alay institute a technological platform on which this vaccine preparation can be made we already had a wealth of experience not only the technology of how to do it but before that we had even worked out possible concentrations we knew all the dosages needed to obtain an optimal immune response with minimal side effects. the safety of the

vaccine has been fully proven on a very similar vaccine though not identical against not only ebola viruses but also the mers coronavirus so when we were working against covered 19 we were able to use around 70 percent of an existing element one of the indicators by which the effectiveness of a vaccine is most easily measured is the presence of until bodies in the blood if we proceed from that's experimental data in a similar vaccine against a bowler this protective immunity lasted for 2 years we simply didn't have a long observation period anywhere but in the one sits and it's no secret that in 3 or 4 days time a major english language article on the results of the 3rd phase will be ready for the pfizer vaccine needs to be transported at minus 70 degrees and yours at minus $23.00 rate minus 18 for now some months down the line i hope that we'll be able to amend the registration certificates that this vaccine can be stored not at minus 18

but at the household refrigerator temperature of plus 2. the side effects don't force you out of action there may be a rash headache muscle discomfort and i think the most noticeable effect may be your temperature going up to 38 degrees for 2 days did you take the vaccine yourself yes on march 30th along with all my employees and you're still alive not just alive but pretty active i vaccinated my 14 year old granddaughter so you violated your own instructions against vaccinating children that's outrageous you were ready to kill your entire family for the sake of a new vaccine i wasn't going to kill them but prove that the vaccine is completely safe. what is the difference between the oxford vaccine that is astra zeneca and the gamma lanes to do vaccine there are a lot of differences but they're not significant oxford and us to seneca went from my point of view along the classic path of working against airborne pathogens our

colleagues applied all the rules for creating influenza vaccines to the creation of a vaccine against covered 19 and it seems to me that the epidemiological features of this disease this pathogen were not quite accurately calculated the people at pfizer also understand this and have made great efforts to modify the r.n.a. so that it would not be recognized as far as i understand by protective proteins but i'm not sure where the my colleagues most to solve all the problems on a large scale the u.k. health secretary is called thousands of londoners irresponsible after they opted for last minute trips outside the capital to avoid a strict lockdown some residents in the places where they're fleeing to aren't happy either we spoke to one of those places people in manchester. i think it is a little bit concerning the amount of people who are excess in london called little to the north i think a lot of people have lost confidence in the advice they've been given and they gave everyone a tell is no. doubt what they're going to do for christmas so i can really understand

how you can justify a journey but you've got to think really about the implications it does have on those people who have visited obviously people want to get to their families and their loved ones but i'm really not sure that we should be leaving london where there's obviously a massive outbreak and going into the regions and potentially taking the virus with them i think people are very inconsiderate about. leaving this if. they don't realize that it's going to spread very in the whole of the country. this comes after a highly infectious mutation of kobe was attacked in southern england and the british government's chief scientific adviser says it's been detected elsewhere the new variant is spread around the country it's localized in some places but we know there are cases everywhere so it's not as though we can stop this getting into other places there's some there already the message has been very clear and i think

i want to reinforce it is state local meanwhile in london long queues formed outside supermarkets over concerns of food shortages in the run up to christmas fear has been fueled by a combination of factors including a potential no deal bricks it stricter knocked on regulations and border closures because of the new coronavirus train we spoke to former british m.p. george galloway he says it's peculiar the u.k. is reacting to a new strain of the virus only now when in fact it was discovered months ago. i should tell you that sir patrick vallance says that this new mutant corona virus was identified last september and it's a couple of days before christmas not the government council of the whole thing that is inherently suspicious if i tell you that on there a few months ago the british government was paying people to go out and restaurant ito to help out they said we spent billions of taxpayers' money actually did

have the bill in the restaurant for someone like me who go for to pay for their own don't know we've gone from that to look for years before christmas cancelling the whole thing it's been there shambles from start to finish and the very expensive showgirls no i said the government was talking up this new drugs in order to divert attention from it's all cataclysmic phil you know. dozens of journalists at the guitar based news network al-jazeera have had their smart phones hacked according to cyber security searches in canada the scene looking into the breach believe it happened on the orders of saudi arabia and the u.a.e. using israeli made to spy ware. in july and august 2020 government operatives used n.s.o. groups pigs and spyware to hack 36 personal phones belonging to journalists producers

anchors and executives at al-jazeera the journalists were hacked by 4 pegasus operators including one operator monarchy that we attribute to saudi arabia and one operator sneaky kestrel that we attribute to the united arab emirates let's take a closer look at the israeli software firm believed to be involved and so group is known for other cyber scandals worldwide including the targeting of journalists in rocco and politicians in spain in those cases that exploited a vulnerability in whatsapp leading to the messenger service to the group the group says its technology is used by governments to track down terrorists and criminals now in the al-jazeera hack all the targeted devices turned out to be i phones which hadn't been updated on the newest operating system the hackers could listen in through the built in walk of phones take pictures with the camera even access locations and passwords we spoke with former british intelligence officer philip ingram he says these are already behind the malware has a track record of helping saudi spies. the n.s.o.

group they've been selling the software for quite some time and in fact in 2000 maintain there was some accusations that their software have been used in the tracking of jamal khashoggi and they then withdrew their support from the saudi arabian government they're only supposed to sell it to governments resource to some of the organizations that have got a moral and ethical code they have been accused of not doing that across the globe and that's what's brought them to attention of a number of the civil rights organizations i think this is a software specifically targets of devices and if you remember a couple of years ago there was a big legal debate about whether the f.b.i. could get access to. a terrorist apple device in the states and it went through the courts were refusing to give them the codes to get into it and then all of a sudden the caucus disappeared because a company mostly get into it it was one of these really companies stuff by former

israeli intelligence officers and any devices transmitting anything along even if you believe that you're using a secure and the bottom line is someone somewhere can listen into. you know it is they it has imposed restrictions or exports the scores of russian and chinese companies accusing accuse of having military ties for our american companies would have to apply for special licenses to sell the firm's goods or technology the department recognizes the importance of leveraging its partnerships with u.s. and global companies to come but efforts by china and russia to divert u.s. technology for their destabilizing military programs including by highlighting red flag indicators such as those related to communist chinese military companies identified by the department of defense. the u.s. the bond of commerce has put 103 entities on the list 58 from china and 45 from russia include arms manufacturers research institutes and the russian state firm that builds soyuz rockets russia's space agency sent

a letter to nasa expressing fears for the future of the international space station the restrictions imposed by the u.s. on russian enterprises jeopardize the future of the international space station program could you please inform us how nasa will react to this development so as to avoid any risks to the i assess program or the russian and chinese governments of condemned the u.s. move saying it's likely to further damage relations. this is yet another aggressive step against russia we can only regret that another outgoing us administration has decided to deal a blow to already very poor russian used bilateral relations each blome delays normalization and significantly hinders the process of breaking this deadlock that is some of the 3 mantle to our bilateral relations with some time the united states on the pretext of national security has been using state power to constantly abuse export control measures for the purpose of tracking down foreign companies this is

a serious breach of free trade rules serious threat to the security of global industrial and supply chains in the cause of serious harm to the well being and interests of the people of all countries including residents of the united states i think we should interpret anything coming out now and before biden takes office as technical measures transmix for his benefit or the benefits of the republicans don't necessary what biden or dane democrats will continue to china's does we acting in a constrained manner with chinese and foreign minister saying that the united states should choose by a lot in consultation with china instead of pushing up the ball sanctions against chinese companies by over stretching the notion of national security opportunity suppression after all we have all seen what the us has done to its global competitors 1st we see unfair treatment to french else wrong japan's to sheeba and now we see china's huawei t.g.i. and cetera i think whoever we are rife with the yes we did next to be suppressed

a look now at some of the other world news making headlines globally. a noisy rally in barcelona where people are angry about the latest rules effect in bars and restaurants all the demonstrators as you can see took a slightly cheekier approach to expressing their discontent. you know. you can hear the beautiful singing from locals in hawaii as a volcano erupting in front of them they had been warned to stay at home as there's been a series of minor earthquakes in the region many claim of the couldn't resist credible lava spectacle. brings up to speed next the latest restrictions in the u.k. plus those bricks at. more the same annoyed back in half an hour to bring you the latest join us again that.

a lot of questions what does it mean to be conservative is coming from the conservative and the change we need to be concerned about the issue in mind. for conservatives to believe.

this is a boom bust the one business show you can't afford to miss friendship or in washington coming up economic data out of the united states and united kingdom is showing signs of recovery but how with the latest wave the coppa $910.00 demick effect growth moving into the end of the year will break down the numbers plus many countries have instituted new lock downs to slow the infection rate of the coronavirus heading into the holidays we'll take a look at the trends and spread of the virus and later tensions between the united states and china continue to mount after the commerce department released a list of companies with alleged military ties break down what this means for the

relationship between the world's 2 largest economies in fact show today so let's dive right in. and we leave the program with the latest on the economic recovery out of the united states and united kingdom a star in the united states the american economy grew by a record pace of 33.4 percent for the 3rd quarter of 2020 the commerce department reported tuesday now the number was revised up from initial estimates of 33 point one percent reported last month pushed up by more than 3 trillion dollars in pandemic relief now the record expansion followed the record contraction of 31.4 percent in the 2nd quarter of this year g.d.p. in the us is still 3.4 percent below where it was at the end of $29000.00 prepared dammit now meanwhile in the u.k. g.d. .
