morning's headlines for russia starts clinical trials for a light version of its sputnik very covert vaccine is global demand grow. like the laws britain's prime minister reportedly caught exercising many miles from his home in an apparent breach of his own government's rules that. the leaders openly criticize tech giants ban on president trump warning it brings up broader questions about freedom of speech.

not of the morning here now good morning from moscow this is r.t. international kevin owen here for the next 30 minutes to update you and thanks for your time then 1st russia is developing an express edition of its sputnik the covert vaccine as national and global demand grows a simplified version sputnik light comes as mexico big comes the latest nation to consider buying tens of millions of doses of russia's original vaccine. reports. the sputnik the vaccine once scorned and maligned is turning into an international bestseller production is surging to an average of 130000 doses a day so $4000000.00 doses over the next month the vaccine has already been approved in algeria and argentina serbia but levy a other countries and move as well lining up i can say the vaccine is affected more than 90 percent based on the trial doubts and also less allergic reaction.

ability skill ability cost all these all a part of me to a better idea of what any vaccine to roll out. one of the sputnik speakers to advantages over the competition aside from price is that it's easier to transport or to store so a simple fridge will do the 5 of them and then the vaccines they require deep freeze as low as minus 70 degrees celsius so cold storage which isn't widely available in much of the developing world which is most of the world the sputnik the vaccines high quality and efficacy are stimulating growing interest from more and more countries these translates into wider jorgen feel free scrooged ration to leverage and production palestine denied the vaccine by israel has become the 1st in the middle east to greenlight sputnik the main thrust of the. us with the worse is that it's using

a. lot the sin and universe has been used in force does this it is different in order to reduce it. to the. reverse of the cause of that they believe yes it is a good chance to know that the difference is a dentist in india the russian shot has just passed phase 2 trials without a hitch with only phase 3 to go already deals have been signed to produce 300000000 doses of sputnik in india the phase 2 study in india showed a very good safety profile we are working closely towards fast tracking the launch of the sputnik the vaccine in india all in all few nations are putting all their money on any one horse or vaccine anything could happen from supply shortages to unforseen side effects like the pfizer vaccines allergic reactions which is why it

makes sense to make sure that you've got different jobs. next case of one rule for another may be for those who make the rules well british prime minister boris johnson's apparently been called exercising 11 kilometers from his residence despite his government's clear instructions to people not to exercise outside their local area and it's just days after 2 women were fined hundreds of pounds for driving just 8 kilometers for a walk the fines were rescinded after a massive public criticism he shouted was dashed he looks next at how johnson's bad example that comes at the worst possible time for britain in the pandemic. the relentless 1000 infections up and down the country has prompted a stark warning from the health secretary. it's an unwelcome message for many across britain but professor chris witty who's

the chief medical officer advisor to the government says tougher restrictions are absolutely unavoidable the next few weeks are going to be. times of mamma's internationalists well hospitals are being pushed to absolute breaking point last week we had the mayor of london city karnit declare a major incident which just gives you an idea of the scale that the n.h.s. is facing but also we've had major incidents also being declared in areas like sorry and sussex and those on the frontline say the situation is dire we're going to most grieve the. incident. when all this comes as the government unveils its vaccination plan includes the opening of 7 mass vaccination centers across the country but there is a widespread perception that the government keeps over promising and under delivering it it comes as a poll finds at around 72 percent of people think that the government has not acted

fast enough with 42 percent say they're absolutely too slow but there are still plenty of people out there who think they're locked down shouldn't be in place at all and they clashed with police over that we can't. do the vaccine very much does provide some light at the end of the tunnel but there are many. put out there that have no doubt that things are going to get worse before they get better the n.h.s. is struggling now in some parts of the country there are no beds and people are being shipped around the country and in some places there's a shortage of oxygen there is no doubt about it the n.h.s. is on the brink and the big message from the secretary of state was to really

implore people to follow the rules do not go out and less it's necessary the n.h.s. i think is close to breaking point i think the government has been too slow right from the beginning there were too slow to law down a regionally we are an island we could have closed our borders easily but we let people in from china and from northern italy and from spain leave the infection with them that would too slow to get people to where moss they were to slow the original lot down and they've been to slow down since and of course we've had the relaxation of christmas which was a very foolish thing to do in my opinion so yes i think we've had we have a prime minister who's been hesitant to lock down and he's been too slow to act and that's been the story throughout this very sorry. and britain's in a double bind at the moment the worst point in the pandemic according to the health secretary of state plus on top of the whole covert thing called up in red tape was

companies to work out how to trade with europe a covering that bit of it in a few minutes. this next though european leaders have publicly questioned twitter's permanent ban on president trump representatives of both the german chancellor and the french president wall the tech giant's move raises wider worries about freedom of speach. the chancellor considers it problematic that the accounts of the us president have now been permanently blocked and you know banishing the person silencing them on social networks which have become a form of public space seems to me a complicated matter in the absence of specifically established criteria. it's not only world politicians rights groups are also warning that the trouble could be a slippery slope and as artists ask you taylor explains next the apparently growing disconnect between the values that washington preaches and current developments across the country. america the land of the free people i've met in china and

russia and afghanistan and iraq and other places who yearn for freedom and who look to this building and these shores as a place of hope the american people and the greatest democracy the world has ever known this temple to democracy over the policy a few decades the u.s. has been busy exporting its brand of democracy all over the world but it looks like fine me the walls run dry in its own backyards and what could have been lifted from a dystopian sayf i block mayor episodes twitter facebook instagram snapshot the list goes on don't trump out of his accounts so good that his biggest step yet to limit president trumps or reach put or has permanently suspended president trump's account where there has announced it is cutting off president trump's ability to post on the social media site permanently president of course used twitter extremely frequently and to extreme controversy president trump has been violating

rules all over social media for a long time so the american president given amount it by tens of millions of voters to run the country silenced by on the elected technocrats instead a conveyor out with the american constitution in with twit says thompson uses but even that apparently is too little too late in today's america we need solutions that don't start after untold damage has been done change in these dangerous dynamics requires more than just the temperature silencing or permanent removal of bad actors from social media platforms and just like a paranoid dictator is convinced he's surrounded by enemies big taxis by doctors of free while trump loyalists annoy is leading the election for claims right wing talk show hosts all sense that the story blocked because apparently that clinton got michael votes as riled up enough to storm the capital now. duct taping trump and

a few of his cronies is one thing but what to do about the 75000000 americans who've raylene like red taps now we need to on brainwash and reeducate about 71000000 voters and their children who follow trump supporters need to read you give themselves a lot of things but one of them is the definition of democracy now we have to figure out how to reeducate all the people trump and fox news have damaged but before all this great how about some good old erosion of the fast amendment take the twit to start up scene as a safe space for conservative voices while no more afterthought an influx of people angry a twit to censorship story policy pano was dropped by apple google and this is obviously a collusive action on the part of these incredibly powerful entities who are seeking to not just destroy their competition but effectively to silence people who are supporters of the president online for years i heard it invalid to object to

political censorship by facebook and twitter because if you don't like it you can just create a competing social media platform parlor tried and in 24 hours google apple and amazon united to destroy it that's what monopoly power means it's not just the internet that's become a no go zone so these new enemies of the state big time political donors from car in oil companies to big banks have turned off the money top to lawmakers who backed trump in questioning the election results in fewer trump paid well good luck finding a job or any of terms for suburban forbes will assume that everything your company or phone talks about is a lie i mean what's next informing on people oh wait let's name and shame them off to some amazing work by james reynolds and friends here easy. and i guess his mom's paying attention to the shows and hacks and glasses well. never

star direct marketed in maryland you've got an employee to investigate. know not to tap that out of all whiles $984.00 just america the land of the free in 2021 so part of the social networking site popular with trump supporters is now suing amazon for being removed from its web hosting service to america's blue bus discuss the latest on whether online judges give users the same protections their low themselves what we're seeing right now also is truly unprecedented in terms of tech companies deciding what companies can exist and deciding that if you don't behave the way we want you to get all the way we want you to we'll simply shut you down and it's a pretty shocking thing to have happening right now in the technology space it is and i think there's

a difference here i want to play devil's advocate here ben where it is a private company technically so they're allowed to make these rules you check the box when you log in you create your cow and sign up for it right. well i guess you have all the companies right but what's really interesting about this is this whole argument over section 230 right everyone's talking about section 213 again section 230 is written in a way that essentially protects a platform from being responsible for what users upload so in theory the same section $230.00 protection that twitter and facebook and google and youtube use to protect themselves is that is not being afforded a parlor to say hey we're not a publisher so if people come on our platform and they say things that you don't like we're not the publisher of that but we're merely a platform for people to speak and these tech companies are saying hey you can't be a platform you have to be a publisher therefore controlling editorializing every piece of content on your

platform that's what they're being told choose of all of the 12th of january hi there thanks for watching r t ritu did run the world this is coming up french alcohol produces suffer another headache of the u.s. slaps for the title of so in the talk about it after the break. join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics or business i'm show business i'll see you then. the financial. thing 1st is it the 3 different. we have. something something in america something over the cayman islands it

origins of the pandemic. i left home on january deforest and haven't returned yet the neighborhood is closed out i think any of us now. take 10 random samples and test them at the same time this is a routine operation to increase efficiency while maintaining an accuracy using this mass at our lab along with 3 others can test 30000 samples a day. the

. other news this morning on all sorts and i guess lashed out of donald trump in the wake of the capitol hill riots the hollywood star and former california governor spoke about his childhood in post nazi austria and compared the president's actions to what happened in the run up to world war 2. i grew up in austria and very aware of christian or the night of broken glass waste it was the day of broken gas right here in united states president trump sought to overturn the results of an election he saw the cooler misleading people. it was for misled also with. the worst of the. kristallnacht was a wave of attacks on jews across germany and austria in 1938 the name comes from the shattered glass that littered the streets of the nazi forces raided and vandalized synagogues and jewish owned stores dozens of jews were killed and

thousands arrested that night but very close director of the durban holocaust and genocide center thinks parallels with last week's events are misguided though. i believe that allergies are unhelpful and certainly holocaust and energies are in appropriate we always have to look at the context each circumstance and each shift our local context it needs and the new aren't needs to be. always taken into consideration and each occasion in each circumstance needs to be unpacked in its entirety because for the hope of many survivors still alive today the holocaust is not a memory it's not history it's lived experience it's the loss of the family members the torture that the polling circumstances that they were forced to endure and so as dreadful as these events and these particular events last week were on

capitol hill we need to be careful in making analogies around calling it kristallnacht. i want to go to here maybe a consequence of bricks today while the dutch news videos go viral you about to see it showing the u.k. driver having his sandwiches confiscated the used banned british meat products of his they may contain dangerous pathogens like foot most disease it's all of the rules even the dutch border guards from the movie funny though. it on older brother not yet ok let me take them off oh yeah very good i tickled me to. know everything will be gone. meantime british companies are suffering huge delays they're even being turned back at the border as they try to ship to europe post breck's it traffic through the key u.k. port of dover is that 85 percent on 2019 drivers reporting hold ups of hours

resulting in huge losses ellis black who works for one majestic firm in central england explained how the government keeps changing the rules for exporters. we've found that the clarity of requirements for even boards and an exporter have been quite a problematic since the expression has come into place to be in the. end we have a great deal write downs from how you masi on what decorations need to work. however those are regularly changing the logistical issues it with patient reports mainly due to work and once we got some clarity from the goodman and what we can pass on to our. end of the. chip stocks wine. in changing the eve believed it would work but unfortunately the hasn't worked out that way. and i don't know. what they would. and another break

to the obstacle sparked up north the pro independent scottish national party has demanded the british prime minister pay billions of pounds and compensation to scotland for the damage the brics it's going to do to its economy i guess mcneil of the scottish national party told us why. of course nobody's benefiting from back setbacks it's a complete lose lose scenario but then my part of you know to hell is analogous total and we're going to see the worst in all of you know from this exit that's been visited on people of the european union you can get 5000000000 in 5000000000 euros in the u.k. go and understand cough up 2 and i'd argue that the highlands and islands deserve more than others because they're disproportionately disadvantaged by the exit to get at is the black city years have made the european union be to curse they've made them king because no every best has one of every company selling it the european market has to keep the bureaucrats to clipboards happy people that never

saw before they're certainly seeing them no and recent polls suggest that support for scottish independence from the u.k. is growing as i guess mcneil again explains. well in 2014 scotland was told that by a voting just in the united kingdom was going to gather in t. a place within the european union where for less than 2 years later for the blacks at referendum we saw that more than. scotland was lied to effectively but also told don't just the united kingdom but lead the united kingdom when we want to destroy lead by staying in the european union we weren't allowed to have any sort of veto within the united kingdom there that were going to the status quo we we could that dealt with it all of the wheels what is significant is in 24 to 55 percent of scots voted for you if you union but in 201662 percent of scores. in the european union if european union more popular with spots of referendums than

the united kingdom. the u.s. is imposing new additional tariffs on high alcohol wines and with a long running trade dispute between washington and brussels wine producers want this could lose them almost a 1000000000 euro in exports this year alone. of course these new tariffs pose a real threat for us moreover previously it's affected only under 14 percent strength winds but now it covers all types of wine it effects the whole french wine industry and no doubt we will feel the consequences of this standoff especially amid those countries that don't have such tariffs and this is such a bad time as the state of trade ties with the us is already dire because of the pandemic and we have kind of a large export volume to the us thus even with a mirror tariff increase on american wines we suffer more than they do tensions

between the us and europe escalated in 2019 a row of an airplane subsidies were sold to the tit for tat moves with america putting 25 percent levies then on some european wines with more european alcohol know being targeted french produces a calling on its government for help. by we can export by placing them on the edge of an abyss it is the entire wine and spirits sector the 2nd largest contributor to the balance of our country which is in danger that. in this case it would be better if taxes and other payments were decreased for example we wind producers provide the french economy with money via those taxes and that is ok but when we face a situation when our industry suffers the government would do better to ease some taxes we don't get any support from the government and to receive it well you know we have nearly 0 rights with the current almost communist french administration yet

. the close call is too much 26 past the hour they're hoping to go right so far thank you for checking in with us if you want to keep all our news by his side throughout the day don't load or up if you have got it already and a break in headlines will go straight to your mobile device simple as that for now though kevin though in signing off on behalf of the rest of the team thanks for watching and have a super day. so

what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race off and spearing dramatic development only personally i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk. is your media a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe from. the isolation or community. are you going the right way or are you being

led. to direct. what is true what is faith. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the depths. or a maybe in the shallowness. i got this 8 millimeter film purely by accident. time period 963 to 65 place damascus. i was told don't do. it i've watched it many times a man posing the monuments an old poster of the hollywood premiere of town without pity and a fight in

a minute so without bruises. i had my doubts if i should waste my time on this but i came back to that film over and over again tracing a sequence of events happening in syria at that time and most of those who worked there the wood on the radio. in the clinic you know what you see in the neil curiosity is like a petrol motion machine it lives on without a lunch break and then suddenly i saw him stop let's take another look now at low speed this is key like cohen a super spy who some consider a national hero and others an evil villain an israeli double o. 7. because it's bud some of the good at the one. still.

this is a boom bust the one business show your counterparts amassed on star months in washington coming out we saw a tidal wave of tech headlines this weekend as president trump lets lamda with a barrage of social. media bans following last week's breach of the capital some are cheering big tax but others are worried about the fate of free speech we'll discuss the fallout then we'll sit down with him and his disease expert to audit the clone a virus vaccine roll out how exactly is operation work speed coming out now that we've rung in the new year markets reacting to an already new it's billed 2021 there's a lot to get through so let's get started. it's been an incredible weekend in the tech world not only how to.
