what is true what is faith. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the depths. aura maybe in the shallows. in today's headlines a 2nd batch of sputnik derives in argentina that us demand for the russian vaccine against across latin america. dicey with the science the u.k. government hints that it might fail to get the 2nd job out people within 3 months previous to the promise despite that 12 week window already exceeding the guidelines we could adopt as range. the 2nd dose is crucial in boosting the immune levels if we then pray to boost the communities in a given time strand then we may be losing the fact the 1st vaccine.

over the white house as president elect joe biden packs is state department obama era. good morning and welcome to our international. received a 2nd batch of the sputnik vaccine it comes as more countries across latin america have been opting for the russian job more details has done a hawk. whatever the science behind the covert vaccines other factors are at play politics being a key one it's no surprise that vaccine approval and distribution has been like a parliament divided along party lines countries are mostly sticking to their own before selling all of their neighbors north america and europe have made their own

pitch while competing vaccines have been subjected to increased the skepticism scrutiny and smears so it may come for some was a surprise that much of latin america is leaning towards the russian option being the latest to sign up reduced ration of sputnik vaccine in paraguay proved the increasing interest of latin american countries in a safe and effective russian vaccine against corona virus we expect the more countries in the region will also approve it soon and ready to create new partnerships to pool their foods in the fight against the pandemic paraguay joins argentina bolivia and venezuela in placing orders and cuba are in talks to start local production with mexico peru and brazil also potential customers yes sputnik ves easy to transport store it's also competitively priced but could there be another factor let's face it as far as the neighbors go do it politically north and south america are pretty much like chalk and cheese take venezuela and bolivia

pushed into pariah state status over the years or cuba really designated a state sponsor of terror it was a matter of when lot if south american nations would start looking for friendlier countries to hang out with the 1st thing we have to look a here is the blockade against the malaccan american country in the case of venice . or york and a very limited i can weed back in economically in the u.k. based on the american made back in there out of read you can be levied by work in that country. we can think of the the russian companies are far less exposure to us punitive measures. in them from the us. and increasing the possibility to trade in with partners like venezuela countries traditionally closer to the united states such as mexico or costa rica have already opted for western designed

vaccines brazil is still on the fence while plans to lourdes production of sputnik are in place regular troop prove it has been delayed though moscow says it's just a temporary issue in connection with unreliable information that appeared in a number of media outlets about the refusal of an emergency registration for the sport make the vaccine in brazil we clarified that the national health surveillance agency has requested additional information regarding the sputnik the vaccine which will be provided shortly russia plans to expand sputnik corporation in the region for many countries on the continent it seems like the best choice practically and financially and whatever the global politics at play in the upper echelons of power latin american nations agree and a pandemic like none of us have ever witnessed is protecting the people which comes 1st naturally thinking they are being played by many sectors personally i'm always watching them who are political their distribution over into that country the

pressure here in latin america but this is of course counterproductive to the interests of the people who are essentially looking to get the cheap vaccine quick . they've got their hope and improve the health care system of the country so i think if the thumb extended it was inevitable that the distribution of the right thing was going to be polluted by that but i get that in order the detriment of the people living here in the continent. the senior u.k. minister sparked outrage by suggesting that people may have to wait even longer than 3 months for their 2nd covert job the previously promised 12 maximum weight already exceeded guidelines can you guarantee that on 5 years for example you will be able to get a 2nd we absolutely are aiming for that we should be able to deliver it and i think we can be quietly confident does the governments know something they w h o f d n fires they don't why are they seriously willing to concede they are gambling with

the nation's health by playing fast and loose with vaccines this is dangerous 2nd charges critical and 12 weeks already stretching it not sure what to make of this let's hope this is a rare under promising rather than a real risk the different vaccines have been tested with different times between the 1st and 2nd doses ranging from 3 weeks up to 3 months the government originally planned to stick to the shorter those time frames but now says it's ok to delay for the full 12 weeks in order to eke out supplies to get at least some vaccine into as many people as possible but that decision was met with widespread criticism concern from both the public and the medical profession itself a british doctor's campaign group has appealed to the. least make exception for the pfizer vaccine which recommends the shortest gap between jobs and the statement the drug firm points out there's no data to say the 1st dose gives protection beyond $21.00 days it is communicable disease expert dr and carney as

a 2nd job can't be held up indefinitely. the 2nd dose is crucial in boosting the immune levels so if you are some optimally immunized and then you never get that boost that immunity will eventually start to frayed and you become one rable to infection we have to immunize as many as possible as fast as possible and i accept giving the one vaccine prevents severe illness in more people by using up the 2 doses to give to double the number of people accept that but if we then fail to boost their immunities in a given time span then we may be losing the protective effect of the 1st vaccine that we gave if that is the case it's very unfortunate therefore the 2nd vaccine ought to be given within a good time frame not an indefinite time interval. and then

a shocking revelation doctors in the u.k. reportedly being told to throw away leftover coronavirus vaccines similar incidents are believed to be happening across the atlantic to. 2 shoppers in the united states were fortunate enough though to receive a covert $900.00 job on the spot they were offered the vaccine by an in-store pharmacist who's looking for any takers after 2 health care workers have missed their appointments not everybody is quite so lucky though on health specialist shared the story of a doctor who could not give left over doses to patients or technicians because of hospital policy and by the time he received approval the doses have been thrown away can you comment on those issues. i think there is a lot of inertia in people rising above tight regulations sometimes regulations that are written out need to be challenged it is a shame to waste 2 axioms if you have got them spread out you should develop what you would call forward planning and have

a register of people that you can call at short notice and immunize them don't waste any because this is an important and valuable medicine to protect people so you if you do forward planning and you find the people who can be on a reserve list then they can be called very quickly and they can attend as soon as possible within a couple of hours and you must do that planning to immunize are the people with the spare vaccine. can turn to america now where a video of a woman suffering convulsions after receiving a coronavirus jab is caused a stir must warn you may find these images disturbing brant his mother received the vaccine in the easier this was at the start of january and according to a sun she hadn't experienced any health issues prior to taking the shot is on dry and they described his mother's condition. she said that the day afterwards she woke up with a headache and she's had a headache every day since until today today's the 1st day she has had

a headache but she started noticing the seizure like movements in a way your left leg 1st and it was 3 days afterwards and she was admitted to the hospital by 4 days with she had no control over her legs when she was trying to walk the doctor said they think it's the metals and the vaccine. is causing her to have the neurological reaction. pfizer hasn't confirmed the case and says it's investigating but it's not the 1st time concerns have been raised about the safety of the job no waste going investigating the deaths of dozens of elderly people who recently received the vaccine grider says the response he received his video suggested his mom's case isn't even a one off i've heard of other cases since i shared a video on facebook. thousands and thousands of people message me coming at an average myself personally i haven't read all the messages but i've written hundreds

of them myself personally have people told me their stories their daughters or sons their mothers or you know of of of memory memories their family have had reactions share their vaccines are part of some of them had a lot of misuse that are negative saying this is your mom. you know you're lying. comment you know it's it's not really something going to try and entertain too much i don't know want people wouldn't trust they want to kodak seemed to take away covert status and get back to normal. with the trump of ministration leaving the white house he might think there's a brand new team of faces poised to come in and replace them but many of joe biden's key cabinet picks hark back to the days of his old boss especially when it comes to the u.s. state department he's right guess the it explains. out with the old and then with the well even older it seems there had been flip through do biden state

department nominations you'd be forgiven for thinking you'd slipped into a parallel above the presidency there back well almost all of back from the people who brought you look at cash if in libya the bungled war in syria got stuck into the coup in ukraine and brought relations with russia to what they are now or as the chief in waiting puts it this team behind me they embody my core beliefs that america's strongest when it works with the sellers it's a team that reflects the fact that america is back judging by the team's track record now is a good time for innocent civilians and potential collateral casualties around the world to start quaking in their boots because this cabal of liberal bruises seems to have much less compunction about dropping bombs than trump ever did such as mr blinken who believes that the us failed in syria because it didn't destroy it

enough in syria we made the opposite error of doing too little without bringing appropriate power to bear no peace could be negotiated much less imposed or how about victoria nuland was her tool it's prefer jets and armies and bombs to take out anything that doesn't fit their picture perfect idea of democracy newlands more wily sheen gives in with with cookies and smiles and gets you to trust says you will have friend and then says this behind your back. that would be great i think to help glue this thing and to have do you when you have blew it and you know you america is strongest when it works with its allies biden said. nuland does that to make sure that america doesn't become too strong and keep those allies guessing

about who she's trash talking this stop or take samantha power now slated to take over america's aid agency machine she's good at anything it's making sure that the u.s. doesn't work with other countries to get things done to the assad regime russia and iran 3 member states behind the conquest of and carnage in aleppo. you bear responsibility for these atrocities these are the people who helped bring trump to power they are they are part of what voters grew disenchanted with the and lost wolves the endless deaths the endless failures but then again don't expect too much from a biden state department in the words of a famous defense secretary if it's foreign policy chances are biden will get it wrong. i think he's been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national

security issue over the past 4 decades looks like it's going to be a continuation of a increasingly aggressive us foreign policy that makes sense because that has been the the trajectory that republican and democrat administrations have done over the past several decades and his most recent picks seem to be a continuation of that this is an ongoing thing and that coupled with his his defense department picks a 3rd of whom have major ties to the defense industry all signals are that we're about to see some serious neocon foreign policy problem is that you have this inertia within us foreign policy and there's there's 2 parts to the inertia one is just the fact that all of the think tanks all of the contractors everyone that is part of the military industrial complex is supporting and promoting these types of these types of aggressive war hawks to the state department and the department of defense but there's also something more sinister at play here is the fact that

there's an underlying jingoism that is built into us foreign policy and has been for several decades in this jingoism tells us that the u.s. government the u.s. military can go wherever it wants whenever it wants and kill whomever they wish including civilian casualties and that there can be no negative blowback or consequences for if anyone so much as tries to defend themselves there are mediately a terrorist and when that is the over the underlying thought process and bedrock founding principle of u.s. military and foreign policy it's going to lead to this type of aggressive posture around the world and it has to end. as many wonder what the incoming by administration stance on iraq and afghanistan will be a new poll shows growing support among veterans and military families for the withdrawal of u.s. troops from these countries well in 2 thirds of veterans are in favor of withdrawing the u.s. military from both. gonna stand on the iraq strong support for bringing troops home

among military families as well the polls suggest both groups believe the us should be less engaged in conflicts around the world iraq war veteran vincent emanuel wasn't surprised by the results it's not surprising to me that veterans overwhelmingly want to south of these wars we are the ones who borne the brunt of these occupations and we still live with the ghosts and horrors of those wars and we will for the rest of our lives and it's not surprising to me that many veterans their families and the broader united states has no appetite for war right now this is part of a bigger picture problem for the united states and that is we operate a military empire at a time when the republic is sort of collapsing at home so the united states has major decisions to make in the coming years whether or not it wants to maintain a global military empire of over a 1000 military bases or the united states is going to have to choose to take care of people here where i live in the united states and you know break down the empire

from abroad. to stay without international after the break russian opposition figure lexan yvonne there's been detained after returning to moscow followed almost 5 months in germany where he's been recovering from the alleged poisoning a 10 story building. i'm max kaiser one more of my guide to financial survival this is. a device used by professional scallywags to earn money. that's right these hedge funds are simply not accountable and we're just adding more and more to the. totally destabilize the global economy you need to protect yourself and get in for the guys with. the world is driven by shaped by.

the day or thinks. we dare to ask. welcome back kremlin critic likes in of on these back on russian soil or was immediately arrested by police on a rival for violating his probation of on the bin in germany receiving medical

treatment after an incident last summer in which he fell seriously ill during a flight washington reacting quickly to the arrest with russia's foreign ministry asking the us to focus on internal issues. in response to mr sullivan as well as many other foreign figures who publish pre-prepared comments respect international law do not encroach on the national legislation of sovereign states and you would problems in your own country the kremlin's attacks on mr novell me are not just a violation of human rights but an affront to the russian people he wants their voices heard with more on the story his. a pause just to the southwest of moscow and around 7 30 pm local time russian opposition forgot it was a cue to land on that flight from by lead however at the last minute we got word that all incoming flights were being diverted to other at ports and

a phony flight was set to shut me up of us the other side of the capital now we know he has been detained why well at the end of december he sobbed out a suspended sentence on charges of embezzlement not that related to the so-called eve for a shut case that goes back to 2014 not the thomas of that's a suspended sentence to mont it that to he regularly report to an office but russia's presence serves to say that he failed to do so on at least 6 occasions over the past here that was before he fell sick on that plane from siberia to moscow and they said they gave him fat warning about the potential consequences of consistent evaluating his probation now this is not the only a legal challenge ahead for the kremlin critic is also facing fresh allegations of fraud investigators say the key misappropriated a waste of $5000000.00 worth of donations that were given in good faith to his non

profit organization and that could see a penalty of up to 10 years behind bars blessed us remind ourselves of what's led up to this moment and why navarro nice or ton to russia has gone to so much attention. or. not just on that last point about requests from german authorities it became clear

that palin had said something to moscow but moscow said that the material that was said was so latino and substance that really it couldn't be considered anything useful all worthy of anything of cooperation never the last we see in the e.u. sanctions senior russian officials over the novell nice saga which looks like it might still be continuing and has been taken into custody and it looks like around that on the 29th of january a decision on his future will be made in court. paris is urging washington and tehran to return to the iran nuclear deal france along with britain and germany alleges runs in violation by building up its nuclear weapons capacity something the iranian foreign minister has rejected it 2015 deal was signed by 7 states and i was supposed to limit iran's nuclear capability in exchange for sanctions relief however in 2018 the u.s.

withdrew prompting tehran to suspend some of his commitments since acquired more than 12 times the amount of rain in the mid by the deal. he's going on the ground latest guest is former president mahmoud ahmadinejad who says that his country is a peaceful one you can watch the full programme on our channel later today or by heading to a website r.t. dot com a lot of the culture of the iranian nation has never throughout history been after conflict. war or threatening others basically the error of using the language of threat in national and international relations report is over the u.s. aircraft carrier nimitz has been sent to iran's maritime borders you have the boss of trumps pentagon. making accusations against iran it's my understanding that a new war is about to be imposed on the sensitive region of the middle east how

will buy. make any difference to iran u.s. relations he is of course a very good friend of israel from our standpoint it makes no difference who is president in the u.s. since major u.s. policies are devised by the governing board behind the scenes look at the past 70 years yet many crimes against humanity have been committed and a lot of wars and impositions have been waged by consecutive us administration and i don't expect that not to reoccur in the future what did it make you feel when you saw the pictures of the attempted insurrection in washington those are the internal affairs of the u.s. they're almost irrelevant to international policy is bad a lot to say when there was the administration's on the streets of tehran yes in their foreign policy they meddle in all the affairs of countries we're getting some reports of coronavirus from yemen the world's worst humanitarian crisis according

to the u.n. do you think the world is forgotten about yemen i think the people of yemen are bearing the brunt of pressure resulting from the greed and wickedness of others their country's infrastructure is being destroyed the youth women and children are being killed poverty is spreading from a human perspective i felt responsible and wrote letters to the 2 parties involved in the conflict announcing my readiness to help resolve the problems and to end the war certainly brokering peace is a human responsibility anyone who can contribute should do so and anyone fanning the flames of war should stop today the world is being managed according to the principles of political darwinism what that means is that for some to be strong others would have to be weak this ideology is anti here. and has turned the world into a place where an arms race has jeopardize everyone security i'm opposed to this world
