there. is. a milestone in moscow coronavirus restrictions are used in the russian capital as the vaccination campaign against the mentor we hear from some of those who got the job. i want to get vaccinated against a coronavirus i'm afraid of getting sick and dying we called to sit it's home and be afraid waiting for everything to befall you. also that's our frustration mounts in countries that opted for the pfizer job as surprised problems that in europe and north america islam in the us have been the trouble to me reinstates just to get an update. on president mccollum promises that students will be able to go back to university part time that's after they took to the streets of paris blaming the

government is doing little to ease the strain of lockdown we hear a 1st hand account. there's a kind of shame of not being able to it's properly. you're watching international coming to you live from the russian capital this and every hour welcome to the program. nurseries colleges and museums will now be open to moscow residents as of today that's after the mayor decided to ease coronavirus restrictions in the russian capital after a steady drop in cases artist constantine has the details it is safe to say that the news has been long awaited by moscow residents but do you know who are especially excited now parents distance learning for school children which let's be honest didn't sit well with a lot of work and parents is over it kids can go back to class again and you know

this morning i was passing by a school on the way to the studio and there were a lot of people comment in parens kids an early sign that the life in europe's largest capital is starting to get back to normal also sports and leisure facilities for children are allowed to reopen or return to regular working hours university students however will have to continue studying from home moscow's struggling entertainment industry will also feel so much needed relief to some extent at least sitting capacity in cinemas theaters and concert halls has been increased from 25 to 50 percent also museums public libraries in our galleries can't reopen there was however no easing up on nightlife with clubs bars and restaurants still being forced to shut down at 11 pm all company owners have to keep at least a 3rd of their employees working remotely where possible that measure also remains

unchanged anyway this indeed is the most significant relaxation of the lockdown since last autumn moscow mayor sergey sit down inside a positive statistics as one of the main reasons behind the move to lift restrictions russia's capital has seen a decline in reported daily infections and in cases requiring hospitalization and that is despite there being a week long national holiday just 12 days ago the spirit of code 19 in most. suggests cautious optimism last week daly recorded cases were between 200-4000 which is significantly less than at the end of december vaccination rates have increased significantly more than 220000 people in moscow have already received reliable protection from the virus the only number of people recovered from the corona virus in russia also exceeds the number of those got infected and that is another positive sign in the sand bar russian president vladimir putin announced

the start of the nationwide mass vaccination campaign it's already in full swing there are over a 1000000 people who have taken a job already and the number keeps growing according to the latest official statistics here in moscow inoculation points being set up across the city in addition to regular hospitals and we were filming in side an opera house the other day where they now administer shots but also you can get a job while a shop at a mall or grabbing a bite to eat at a food court so let's have a listen to the visitors of those of vaccination points well like everyone i want to get vaccinated against the corona virus i'm afraid of getting sick and dying my friends were seriously ill some of them even died so i believe in science and medicine if you want our lives to be as they were before we need to do something we can't just sit at home and be afraid waiting for everything to be fine. first of all is dangerous for me as a single because the disease effects will kill abilities and the scores it also has

a strong impact on the lungs which is not good of course it's too early to celebrate the further liftin of the matter is in moscow and the rest of the country will entirely depend on whether the positive trend that we're seeing now can continue. hungary has become the 1st e.u. member state to strike a supply deal with russia for sputnik v the country's foreign minister said that hungary will receive up to 2000000 doses of the job and serbia which is not an e.u. member state received its 1st batch of sputnik be in late december with vaccinations beginning and early january authorities say the shipment of sputnik has helped them diversify their vaccine pool. and we are now joined live by renowned serbian director story you're very welcome to the program you recently said that if you were to get vaccinated against kobe that you would choose sputnik v.y. is that. you know in this years of time. in fact we are facing.

a kind of market took back sins which just don't suit the proof that some countries scooted with produce something that is the most important thing at the moment for the nation i'm very happy to be. exposed to the possibility to get. russian rock scene because it's made as i was told by some of the prominent serbian doctors is one of those that we used to receive the same style and the same rules which is made out of the human so contrary to pfizer. and the others who are in fact but equal and kidney which copes with correction of geno and i and i must say that if you like the time when when we were much younger line he got to get the piece of

health against the virus that appeared to be a moment for it gets reduced or natural but it becomes a kind of. very significant tool in the american elections it was never before ladies we've seen the race in which america was passing through the most arrogant time in its history and in the end. it ended when the to be ready to box today the nation this is whole a mess in the planet but anyway let's be happy to be. as i said the beginning lineup and to get some job you know to be able to socialize the most important and the most deadly element of this is an anti-christian culture. position of people today which is called social distance this

is. all becoming part of a better novel. 19 eighty-four as a teen it's like. that you cannot determine if the whole thing was made of to. tell us what we would be to future or if it was me to inspire or it was enough to stick a shipment but anyway that's really at least. or let's say we are lucky we could have a job to do to do so to get that healthy how worried are you that the pandemic is going to have a lasting effect on people's mental health. i think it's going to be a listen i'm living in the village not a religion where last 15 years and it was most of the time struggling so 1st time i'm staying here for a long period of time and i'm i must tell you their opinion so 7 to 10 days that i

feel like i'm in the prison. not because i'm afraid but i don't want to be stupid to get in connection with somebody who could give me this disease actually it is. an instrument of the brain instrument which they could just in the future through out the juice that you threw out at their visions that specially you know that they could. lock us into that whatever they want in the future that's what is the most dangerous part of it because the speaking about the being unable to say is it. possible to communicate them to get a job or many other unknown's but it is. very damaging consequence of the human psychology. that scenes are of course so

important why do you think there's been a certain level of skepticism towards the russian version it's a huge political i don't know what you call idea you know when i was 20 years old which is long time ago unfortunately the idea of getting bucks ian was always counting on some percentage that people are not going to be exposed to really but a majority of the of the people who grow up salute you say so a national accent is a continuation of the history. of the others especially americans of interest in europe they want to show discontinuity you see what is missed the shrub is doing the speaking about that he said he says we cannot eat that much meat we have to go to the insects and to have a protein is to be found on the other place so you have to consider that. under the

threat of absolutely. looking for the element possible to accuse russia for what i would lately pushing people who are saying that soviet union was beautiful there were 2 it's huge revision on one hand and when i say i want russian locsin it's an ideological i didn't 3 creation everything is becoming about politics today whatever you do if you're going to ski it's a. question we should research you will not just to clarify if you're rich or not but also if you go to sochi this is this is russian the same is with boxing so let's hope. what i watched yesterday that president of the health organization was speaking about the nations with the low income

receiving then the 5 jobs 55 not 250 or 2000000 with only one to 25 so it's like a also showcase of ultimates egoism and ultimate. i would say. human dehumanisation so let's see let's go the russian job will be in the future since it's a continuation of production of russian signage it's going to be much more spread that you believed before it starts well exactly as you're mentioning there the w.h.o. chief warned of a catastrophic moral failure when it comes to distributing these vaccines to the poor countries so there's not be a time when people are coming together. i'm solutrean was it true that we are facing plesch of civilizations as they say there was

a very good all sort. historian who was speaking about contrary to mr wu who was also he started in the phase of clash of civilizations in reach those who will believe in their own culture will survive but those who just play a game which is absolutely out of the roots of religion or over a space you know which we were throughout the past time feeding the air with our eyes to facts i would believe that. these people i would agree with mr huntington that this people of this group of people this culture through i think we are seeing a national moxon is a part of the power of the nation that was not changing the borders for the last 300 years and being so much under the pressure to gether with the.

north pipeline and many other elements just made and plate in the last 20 years we do that we should not so those who have a great chance to survive in this difficult times that there are the pandemic so many people have turned to watching a t.v. shows and movies to find some sort of respite from the lockdowns and whatnot and at the same time the arts and industry and the arts and entertainment industry has been completely decimated by the pandemic i think that governments have done enough to support the arts industry. you know i think an action film industry especially apart from some films is this sort of to throwing to him into a tollywood and this is bad part of. russia has a such a huge and not in most number of good artifacts and this is a huge counter so unfortunately we are also in the future the plan went the movies

and most of the t.v. series do not reflect the main existential you start to go political problems especially in your us what there is a kind of you know there is an approach to the reality which is just not speaking about the white the live human problems because of many other things that this is connected to this speaking about the teams and kind of ideologically decided problems not what is real human throat and they want to divert our minds from syndicalism through look at i watched us going to nazis movie he speaks about how in soviet union there was a huge cynical movement in which people wrote killed but if you compared to today's best and world in which i don't know if there is any cynical movement which was

characteristic of the 20th century so in this kind of divisions that there's too few cations of the political life we have but one ideology that is. politically correct which is just doing bad things and i think that the whole story around covert 19th is a quiet. expressed quite expressing all kind of psychological and sociological problems that people have around the world. we've been speaking with good its renowned serbian director thank you for finding the time to join us on the program today. a host of vaccines are being rolled out around the world to combat the pandemic each with their pros and cons but it's the cons that are weighing on people's minds and europe canada and america countries that opted for the pfizer drug the main problem right now is simply getting ahold of enough doses. picks up the story what

was supposed to be an orderly vaccination across the western world is turning into a debacle supply of the desperately needed vaccines is suing to a drip in europe and kavitha and states are collaborating to get their hands on the few deuces available. the health care of italian citizens is not a negotiable issue the vaccination campaign cannot be slowed down especially for given the 2nd doses to the many talents who are already received the 1st phase it has decided to now is the best start to upgrade their european production plant which means for italy for example around 30 percent fewer deuces will be delivered in the foreseeable future italians are angry planning to sue pfizer these are people's lives we're talking about after all and it seems the corporate bosses they

never even asked anyone and last friday we were all surprised by the announcement of pfizer down biotech to have a delay a mediately called the c.e.o. of pfizer and i explained to him that it is of utmost importance that we get the doses that are fixed in the contract pfizer's european production plan supplies europe and canada and much of the world the plant in the united states for now is focused on satisfying america needs this is left canada literally begging its southern neighbor for a handout murmur mine american friends help us so we need help once again you have a new president no more excuses we need your support. unfortunately for canada things aren't rusian the southern side of the border either the highest number of infections in the world the most deaths and in this race against time they're

losing we will have literally nothing left to give as of friday what does that mean it means if we don't get more vaccine quickly our new supplier of vaccine we will have to cancel appointments this is crazy this is not the way it should be we have the ability to vaccinate a huge number of people we need the vaccine to go with it. the way it's handled in the states is that the federal government every week ships out that scene quotas to various states trumpet boasted that they have millions in reserve but that may have been untrue according to various governors who say there's nothing left vaccine quotas the states are fooling the dwindling number of duces of being delivered the bottom line is that we don't have enough banks since it's a jewel problem we need more and we need to get them out more quickly it's soo bad that people have engaged in what's being called that scene tourism so americans all

over the country indeed even canadians a driving to states where vaccines are available to get their shot florida for example we know right now based on. our record from the beginning and it's very. i know you and i we had a real problem last week we tried to get last week. that traffic was a moron when we could get to get close to the site last week but they did just 1st come 1st serve it's been a fiasco from the get go from day one of the pandemic remember what it all started out allies jump to very each other to buy up all the mosques and ventilators and even neighbors were. nothing then they boosted about buying up billions of deuces of vaccines which hadn't even been produced again leave in poorest states with nothing and now that they hear there's not enough for everyone you know all

in the a tie and city of palermo hundreds of coffins are waiting burial in a temporary tent at a cemetery there a local crematorium has been out of service since april and cemeteries are overwhelmed by code victims although italy's infection rate appears to be slowing the country remains one of the hardest hit in europe just turning around $500.00 deaths a day french president emanuel mcraney has addressed students in the country about ongoing coronavirus restrictions and has promised that they will soon be able to return to university at least on a part time basis you know the student should have the same rights and the same needs as an employee and if he or she needs it's a student should have the possibility to return to university in person once a week. it comes after students took to the streets in paris demanding help from officials over the pandemic many say the government is doing little to ease the psychological strain of lockdown our charlotte devinsky spoke to one of the

students. this is she's a 21 year old was a student in paris who dream is to become a history teacher but like students across france and even the world the comb very dependent mic is turned life upside down and inside out in october there was the governor on this idea that every university would because then i just stayed at my place and i was remotely running for the world so mr i want perspective and also having the feeling that some of the best years of my life wasted i have some friends that are really strong and demand that they don't call told me too much of all this there's a kind of shame of not being able to properly those concerns have been heard by the president says he look to ensure universities provide the meals price to one euro a day it's

a picture playing out across the higher education system in france and for some the distress is manifesting in tragic ways one student threw himself out of a 4th floor window in lille he remains in a critical condition another student was restrained off the threatening to do the same according to the observatory of student life a 3rd of france's 2700000 university students are suffering from depression anxiety and loneliness many also run the risk of dropping out and tells me she's had enough and now with other students they are taking action. universities are in limbo the government to suggested

a limited number will be able to return to the lecture hall soon but for the majority life will remain a constant cycle of online lessons and isolation all from the cramped cell like sizes of the student accommodation of prison for me. i mean i like she thought partment i've chosen to that burden but i'm not sure i really be able to stay in to south argument after christmas because there is no like so much memories that are negative into this place it's not that easy and i come for peace for more than let's say certain years then i need to have a brain because i don't see anyone. i can't go outside that measure because there's not so much activity outside sometimes i'm ashamed of my country i mean where friends where supposed to be a rich country and where and that even able to of our citizens in this situation i

think the best for me next year if the situation is the same we're. doing a gap here and then go back to my street is my normal cities there is help for those feeling that the weight of the pandemic is too much one student union has taken to twitter to advertise where students can get help the health service says the number of people suffering from depression doubled between september and early november last year the majority of cases from those aged 18 to 24 the government is committed to increasing the number of psychologists available to help students and must says she would benefit from speaking to a psychologist but there is a long wait the students we've spoken with are angry and despondent they see fit. years they've been raising issues over their living conditions a lack of resources and teaches with the government and nothing was done they feel that this is a crisis that could have been avoided but instead they've been left high and dry

charlotte even ski r.t. paris a new report on france's colonial past in algeria has failed to recommend any official apology for atrocities committed head of its publication present and ruled out saying sorry but it does propose setting up a memories and truth commission and changing the way colonial history is taught in schools and i fail to look at the allegations of systemic torture in algeria many aspects of france's rule in algeria and of the war of independence in particular are fiercely disputed by the 2 countries that conflict lasted 8 years and ended in 1962 it cost lives of some 1500000 algerians across stands on the issue of french atrocities in algeria used to be very different all running for the presidency he promised to recognize them colin a zation is a part of french history it is

a crime is a crime against humanity is genuinely barbaric and it is part of the past which we must confront including by apologizing to those against whom we committed these acts. we ask people in both countries what they think about france's refusal to apologize. apologise is not enough moreover the time half of the jury and people were killed by colonialism we must not lie to each other. france is a colonialist country and without colonialism france would not have succeeded france has committed genocide and war crimes from 832962 with over 10000000 victims . our diplomacy is weak and our power is also weak historical truths remain hidden we want to know our real story to prove to the world that france has committed crimes in algeria you want to our history has already been falsified historians say a nation without a history is an ignorant one moreover through the history books we know that france

still rules here. of course france should have apologized we must recognize that we committed a great wrong over several generations so one apology is still necessary but not sufficient. and also both but i don't think france should apologize for the colonization of algeria after the evian accords france withdrew from algeria so from that moment on contracts were made between the 2 countries and it's not for a country to apologize for what was done in the past and that's a wrap up of the day's top news for now but don't forget you can always find us on many of your favorite social media platforms like twitter and instagram reports.
