personally i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. to. an arrest is seen in several u.s. cities as the new president joe biden vows to overcome the deep rift between the i'm a proud republican and. we must end this chivalry war. prince really blew . that message of unity gets a gushing response from the mainstream media you look at whether the enthusiasm is justified. the worst shock when this is an a dying nonsense. and the european commission moves a step closer to introducing passports despite resistance from several member
9:01 am
states. you're watching large international coming to you live from the russian capital this an every hour welcome to the program. joe biden has been sworn in as the 46 president of the united states bring to a close donald trump's 4 years in office but i'm a deep divisions in american society just hours after the inauguration people took their discontent to the streets. and portland protesters faced off with riot police officers fired tear gas into the crowd earlier a mob descended on the democratic party's offices in the city where they smash windows seattle also saw violence with protesters creating barricades and starting fires in the streets over in colorado protesters set fire to
9:02 am
a large us flag in the state capital clashes broke out as counter protesters tried to put it out how the inauguration ceremony itself was like no other security so high that d.c. resembled a war zone and unprecedented 25000 national guard members had been called in to avoid a repeat of scenes like the one seen 2 weeks ago during the capitol hill riot and rest seen across the u.s. came despite biden and his speech stressing that he'd strive to bring about unity. we must end this civil war that pits read against blue. rural versus urban or rural versus urban conservative versus liberal. we can do this if we open our souls so to harden our hearts if we show a little tolerance and humanity and if. we're willing to stand in the other person's shoes as my mom would say just for
9:03 am
a moment stand in the shoes really this is something that joe biden tries to put on this cloak of a peacemaker someone in a surgical mask you know tending to and mending the wounds of the american democracy but the society is not stitching together that easily because in effect what joe biden is doing so far his actions have boiled down to dismantling everything that donald trump has done in the past 4 years this includes bringing america back into the world health organization into signing back the purse climate accord dismantling the infamous border wall that trump just kept throwing money at and still failed to erect and so on and so forth there's plenty of policies that joe biden has a big problem with but one thing that joe biden does have and what donald trump didn't and still doesn't have is the world overwhelming support of the mainstream media those flights that are that are just shooting out from the lincoln memorial i
9:04 am
look it's like almost extensions of joe biden's arms embracing america president elect joe biden and vice president harris told. grief and regret out of the privacy of our hearts if just for a moment so that we all could share it he doesn't keep a lot of things secret when it comes to his emotions and his and his family and his love for his family some very passionate words just putting it diplomatically like joe biden's arms reaching out it's very very passionate very passionate but again just imagine so the very 1st day this is the kind of slack that the mainstream media are giving joe biden because well they just they just giving him credit for just being there for just getting into the white existing just for existing the already love him and cherish him with trump the media war with against him started instantly like with when various outlets were comparing his inauguration crowd with
9:05 am
the obama's inauguration crowd and so one like you know getting down to the very single to single person you know nit picking on the smallest details because sometimes he was criticized very rightly so by the media but very often they were just you know clutching at straws and with joe biden it isn't happening and more on top of that some media analysts and media figures they already have a well. planned those who voted for trump there are millions of americans are not so worried. and. somehow we need to be deprogrammed they are members of a cult we're trying to scold there are republican members of congress i know who clearly have lost their minds who just will not accept reality when it comes to the facts about donald trump i'm comparing the words of. individual who would incite them radicalize somebody as osama bin laden did to what president trump did right now
9:06 am
with such love the joe biden gets from the media he has he's risking. not being the peacemaker that he seems to want to be but rather deepening the crisis by failing to understand why tens of millions of people more than 70 millions of people voted against him. the media coverage of the inauguration left a bad taste and some people's miles including legal and media analyst lionel i've instructed my family in the event i were to somehow ingest some poison and you rushed me to an emergency room and you had to induce emesis vomiting for those at home if you don't have any syrup of ipecac please played today's media coverage because i think i would upchuck it was the worst saccharin this does an
9:07 am
a dying nonsense the best of the best was a fellow by the name of chris wallace who was on fox news facts news much which used to be considered conservative whatever that means and he said that he's been covering inaugurations since 1961 says j.f.k. ask not what your country can do for you ask what you can do for your country when we had stentorian oratory the only thing we have to fear is fear itself and chris wallace said with a straight face this was the best inaugural address he's ever heard. i'm in a parallel universe imagine every cliche everything you've ever heard. i just pulled out and read and this this finding this almost. cult like it is incantations of the stage at the u.
9:08 am
unity and what did he do within the 1st he went straight to the white house walked in and basically reversed a number of serious executive orders that president trump had such initially so in the day when he wanted to say we're all coming together we're all coming together the 1st he does is give me that pen and there you go there's your unity the spine biden sweeping changes to trump the mastic policy as some are wondering if there will be the same dramatic shift in america's foreign policy. has more. it all depends on where you stand for some biden's inauguration maybe the beginning of for sad year is for others it's a light at the end of a dog dog tunnel the united states is back and europe stands ready to reconnect wouldn't old and trusted partner to breathe new life into a cherished alliance if only it were that simple trumps raid khant be easily undone
9:09 am
old bones have been broken some irreparably so but some and only some can be salvaged we do have. a big task ahead of us in restoring revitalizing those relationships i do think it starts with showing up again some of our allies and partners question the sustainability of our commitments based on the experience of the last recent years and that's going to be a hard hard hill to climb anyone hoping for a revolution a rethinking of american foreign policy a sadly going to be disappointed the new administration has inherited and braced trumps hostility to china for example so if you open for an end to the trade war the tyrant hikes or saber rattling you're outta luck i also believe that president trump was right in taking
9:10 am
a tougher approach to china i disagree very much with the way that he won about it in a number of areas but the basic principle was the right one the nominee for secretary of defense lloyd austin very much agrees with the nominee for secretary of state highlighting 2 primary potential threats to america clearly the strategy will be arrayed against and then china is is present the the most significant threat going forward because china is ascending russia is all sorts right but it's it's in decline they. also approve of trump's middle east policy specifically a huge diplomatic push to get muslim nations to establish relations with israel oh in the new year recognize capital of israel jerusalem abstain too as is the rift in a 2 caused by turkey buying things it shouldn't such as russian missile systems
9:11 am
turkey is an ally that in many ways is not acting as a now i should and this is a very very significant challenge for us and we're very clear eyed about it they also approve of trump's middle east policy they've already said they'll do everything in their power to stop the new gas pipeline being built by europe and russia which presumably includes sanctions against european nations no mention of the withdrawal of troops from afghanistan there presumably staying for a 20th year or 2 trumps record spending in the military no sign of that going away in fact the new administration believes defense capability should be increased even further there is one stark difference between trump's and biden's foreign policies it's iran in my judgment the. for whatever its limitations are succeeding on its own terms in blocking iran's pathways to producing for some
9:12 am
material for nuclear weapons on short order. there you have it the only stark difference between america's old and new foreign policies donald trump may be gone but his political spirit lives on in the new administration joe wright me is terrifying i think to a lot of countries that will hope that his presidency does not mean a return to war. as was personified by barack obama in his libya and venture i think another thing that we all fear is that biden was part of an obama administration that accelerated the. ideas the diffusion of fundamentalist islam islam in the middle east isis to al-qaeda so i think that is very worrying perhaps lincoln and others are thinking ok try and make some deal with iran civil tenuously fight iran by defacto helping islam ism but of course the
9:13 am
big danger here is we're back to back to readers when the united states was supporting the mujahideen in afghanistan which led to the destruction of the twin towers and these are the sorts of foreign policy mind i guess that return to stack the senate foreign relations committee so it had to back the iraq war and then say it all changed because we heard from that speech full of the usual platitudes redolent of obama how they all change because of biden is saying rule unless you're changing cluing lincoln and all the rest of them that he's appointed around. now we turn to some world news in brief almost 30 people have been killed and scores more injured and a twin suicide bombing in baghdad according to local authorities 2 men blew themselves up in a busy clothing market as they were being pursued by security forces over a pass claimed responsibility for the attack so far. people have taken to this.
9:14 am
of the mongolian capitol after footage emerged i think hope it cost of mother and her newborn baby treated roughly by paramedics they're being transported to the hospital without any warm clothing despite the freezing temperatures the country's prime minister has submitted his resignation to parliament on a wave of criticism over his handling of the pandemic. and clashes between opposition activists and police have arrested in the capital of haiti the crowd pelted officers with rocks while security forces responded with tear gas and water cannon the demonstrators are demanding the country's president step down blaming him for the country's failing economy one point activist approach the u.s. embassy calling on president joe biden to confront the haitian government over alleged human rights violations. don't have it in the program the u.a.e. is the latest country to give the green light to russia's covert vaccine on story
9:15 am
more after this break. well we said in 2008 right here on this show was that because there was no attempt to reform what the banks had done and the global financial crisis was caused by the banks who were hoarding the cash they were sitting on the cash they were lending and here we are in 2021 exactly as they predicted they did not reform the banks in fact they just expanded their credit card they expanded their capacity to print and borrow and think give away the cash to their friends causing now this huge crisis. when almost seemed wrong. why don't we just don't hold. anything. yet to shape out these days become active. and engaged equals betrayal.
9:16 am
when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. welcome back the global roll out of russia sputnik the vaccine continues to gather pace the united arab emirates is the latest country to register for emergency use in india the russian job has been given the green light for phase 3 trials arms of coal companies dr reddy's who is behind the trials in the country says they hope to get approval by march if all goes well spent and b. will be used alongside the astra zeneca vaccine and india's kovacs and which have already been rolled out we spoke to dr murray's managing director g.v.
9:17 am
about why they chose sputnik. the 1st reactions which are coming out in india i reserved for the government. of public workers and all that but there are many many many people who need access to these vaccines and hence more better and i do believe that the sputnik is also a very odd once vaccine and may hopeful that it will work when he really really we're very pleased with the finds behind the work seen as you more it is a humanized sales are used but this is an odd one dates then you have are 2 different direct orders or dives for the made vaccine and the booster doors there's another one day age of the also saw the safety data and also some if you can see data and the science behind how this vaccine was deadlocked and the
9:18 am
platform which was in there added human i dunno white is like the best black on. the platform was considered but it's there the if you can see mom don't look very good soul give a very privileged and honored to part of a direction. russian company idea air to bring the suspects in to india back in russia the mass vaccination program is gaining momentum and more foreign journalists are taking note media than the have russians came to be so wrong that already exist. so let's give this out at israeli t.v. news anchor who came to moscow to report on russia sputnik the champ but ended up getting it himself he shared his thoughts on acting with us. as you were aware russian vaccine was it didn't get much credit in the world because of the i wouldn't say haste but the speed that it was approved in russia so we honestly
9:19 am
wanted to come in and ask and see and interview in the we approach and fortunately the russian fund for direct investment was receptive and do we visited the. institute and talked with mr ginsburg head of family as you well aware and talked with the researcher who was the response and i think. there's something very generous of them to be the 1st to test it on themselves. see the effects and only then continue with the experiments and only then are committed to the splash you know to other western journalists already took the book seen in a 1000000 over a half of course of russian citizens did take the vaccine so i thought. yes why not let's try it it's a huge multi $1000000000.00 market and maybe some of the response to the russia
9:20 am
book seen is nobody wanted the russian to take part in the cake in the party few can call it that so i think the moment that the european medicine authority will sit on the papers going there and see kenya to prove be approved or not will be a really important day for this and the coffee and of course i'll be happy for you if you get the approval. europe is moving closer to introducing vaccine passports with greece and italy saying the scheme could provide a way out of the current restrictions a lot of countries are on board as peter over explains. as the e.u. looks to present a united front when it comes to the fight against covert 191 measure we could well see coming in sooner rather than later of vaccine passports as more people are vaccinated the documentation a mutual recognition of vaccination become of up most important though it is premature to envisage the use of vaccine certificates for other purposes than
9:21 am
health protection and a year approach may facilitate other cross border applications of such that if it gets in the future the idea certainly isn't to everyone's taste but the loss of another summer season would be unthinkable for nations whose tourism industries of already being ravaged by coronavirus so covert passports may be the only way to go greece isn't going to let the idea get caught up in bureaucratic navel gazing they've already got the certificates in place we are starting to issue digital vaccination certificates this is not a restriction on the contrary it will help us get rid of the restrictions that covered places on travel for european citizens spain is also in support for the idea of an vaccination document while the italian travel and tourism federation is pressuring rome to act on their behalf we have vaccinated over 1000000 people so far and this number will reach some 10000000 by spring it would be
9:22 am
a real shame not to take this opportunity to bring back to safe travel for a fairly large number of people those who lobby on behalf of the airline industry are also won't understand a really keen to get this idea off the ground than european mutual recognized vaccination certificates would be an important step towards giving governments the confidence to safely open their borders and passengers the confidence to fly without the barrier of quarantine while this is certainly up for consideration the stated goal of the e.u. commission remains paxson ating 70 percent of the. population by the end of the summer but not everyone sees covert per sports as a panacea the president of roumania has suggested that vaccine passports would divide europe's population in 2 while the world health organization is calling on people to be a bit more thoughtful when it comes to travel and not clamor to get back on planes
9:23 am
all over the world as soon as possible i asked people here on the streets of berlin what they thought about the proposal it's a big problem for me because i don't want to be vaccinated so they have to catch me and vaccinate with with force the main point should be the focus not on travel but people we have to think about the community and that should be the main reason for city forgets but at the same time such city if it gets might encourage people to get vaccinated thus helping society i think it's unfair because only the people who are vixen will be freed to travel to work to go to the cinema everything and the people who are not there there will be discriminated by doing fascination of the you will allow us to get back to normal and do things i say usual for the new it does seem that some kind of vaccine document will be the way forward we'll know more after thursday's virtual summit but the mood music coming out of brussels
9:24 am
seems to suggest that a plan could well be in place by the end of this month peter all over r.t. berlin earlier we spoke to richard werner a professor of banking at the u.k.'s demand for university who believes that there's a lot more at stake than just travel. if such covert passports are introduced and actually then used in order to discriminate against people then this would of course mean that people who have refused to to take some experimental injection that has not really been properly tested and has been rushed through they would not be allowed to use some public services that they're paying for as taxpayers even though they're healthy and there is actually a fundamental legal problem with this because actually that's a violation of e.u. law we have european union and earlier european community law which guarantees freedom of movement of people it certainly is it would be
9:25 am
a violation of human rights because you know why restrict the movement of healthy people and you can't simply say that anyone who hasn't done x. y. z. that we will declare as potentially dangerous well that is a massive discrimination and you can't treat healthy people like this that's a wrap up of the day's top news for now thanks for tuning in wherever you may be. is your media a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe. isolation community. are you going the right way or are you being
9:26 am
led. by. what is true what is faith. in a world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the depths. or a maybe in the shallows. taste awful like absolute. first game code then a 2nd wave is coming now the virus is mutating and walk 2 blocks away from the apartment and i would get confused as to how to get not. meanwhile patients who recovered from covert started to report some unusual aftereffects the symptoms were different but. my hearing has been ok i think. one of those things where it's like research is all over the world are trying to determine the many aches pains and
9:27 am
other problems and then turn it all into numbers show you my hair. 1113 there this is throughout the day my hair just. various sources reports that didn't just leave for 35 percent of recovered patients. so. does the bush. there have been many complaints of peril the. joint pain and fatigue in the us these patients are referred to as post coded lomotil those i talked to multiple doctors and my doctor and they said we have a feeling that you're going to have a hard time in recovery you're going to be one of those people that they consider a long haul or. some rumors as soon as the. search is going to be known chris mccomb you may.
9:28 am
remember the just him for a bit is bigger than your fear that oh. i'm talking about is a very international community it. used to be perfectly truthful if. you just go to cuba is this those folks that are so they need to do. those who push them but the world food used to care for business for their nuclear cooperation intel to go is everything through the i gave you that.
9:29 am
this is very robust the one business sure you can't afford to mess i'm rachel evans in washington coming out with a new president comes new hopes for more stimulus and the markets are ready but will the incoming by administration deliver. a lot with fears over a new mutation of the current virus spreading quickly. a landmark study shows that one of the top covert 19 vaccines on the market may be just as effective then as working from home becomes the new normal in the tech industry it's triggering a mass departure from major cities that are now being left behind we have a lot to get sued so let's get started. the 46 president of the united states has officially been sworn into office amid what can only be described as an unprecedented time here in the nation's capital and now gratian day is typically marked by hundreds of thousands of americans coming together to witness the day's
9:30 am
events but with around $25000.00 troops deployed to the streets of d.c. this city has been transformed into a ghost town the incoming joe biden ministration is now pledging to get to work amid pressure to pass the next stimulus package as soon as possible archies john hardy has the latest from the national mall. was a pivotal moment in america's history with the transition of power on a cold windy but beautiful day certainly much more subdued and scaled back event because of the covert 1000 pandemic generally in past inaugurations the national mall behind me would be full of people this year it's full of flags as far as those in attendance for the inauguration.
