and this story shaped the week. countries that did for the cold would fall with supply problems hitting europe and north america some people in the us are helping to travel to neighboring states just to get in the. meanwhile they must fix a nation campaign kicks off in russia with its sputnik. creasing number of other countries also want to use it serbian film director gave us his take on the. exposed. me as.

is the one to be used to deceive. the sea routes. a legendary figure in the world of broadcasting whose career spanned more than 6 decades. died on saturday at the age of 87. bryants are seen in several u.s. cities just hours after a new president joe biden is to overcome the deep deficiency between democrats and republicans. we must end this civil war. the pitch red against blue.

top stories from the past 7 days and right up to the moment of elements of well this is that weekly r.t. a little welcome. countries around the world are trying to work out how to get their populations inoculated given the limited supply of coal vaccines the u.k. government for example is allowing up to 12 weeks between people 1st and 2nd pfizer job however doctors are advising against that stating no studies have been done to show that the drug is still effective after such a long gap no other nation in the world has adopted the 12 week delay like the u.k. i mean all those other countries are also suffering similar pressures of lack of vaccine of increasing numbers of cases hospitalization but they have their scientists have adopted a position to try and keep the manufacturers. guidance but also the w.h.s. own proposal of a maximum of $42.00 days in school. meanwhile is considering filling a filing

a lawsuit excuse me against pfizer after a delay in vaccine shipments at a time when mortality rates are again surging in the city of polar mo hundreds of coffins of code victims you can see here there waiting to be buried graveyard meanwhile across europe in north america there are severe shortages of the job our senior correspondent rutger's to you picks up the story what was supposed to be an orderly vaccination across the western world is turning into a debacle supplier of the desperately needed vaccines is suing to a drip in europe and canada and states are collaborating to get their hands on the few doobs is 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 much of the world the plant in the united states for now is focused on satisfying america needs and this is left canada literally begging its

southern neighbor for a handout. or mine american friends help us 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 deaths and in this race against our own 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 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 for the states and fooling the dwindling number of duces a being delivered. the bottom line is that we don't have enough of 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 coffee to me and if there's anything i know you and i we had a real problem last week we tried to get last week. when the traffic was a horror and when we couldn't even get close to the site last week they did it just 1st come 1st serve it's been

a fiasco from the get go from day one of the pandemic remember when it all started out allies jumped to very each other to buy up all the mosques and ventilators and even neighbors with nothing and they boosted about buying up billions of duces of vaccines which hadn't even been produced again and leave in poorest states with nothing and now that they hear there's not enough for everyone. where i guess they have all the town's russia sputnik the job is getting more traction abroad hungary has become the 1st e.u. member state to strike a supply deal for the russian taxying the hungry and foreign minister said the country will receive up to 2000000 doses a lot on your public diggy due to the slow delivery of the vaccine you are forced to find a new source in order to get fast livery of reliable vaccine so it is a great aunt and a great pleasure to inform you that we have concluded a treaty today under which russia will deliver

a vaccine to hungry in 3 stages and never comes a month after neighboring serbia started taking deliveries help sputnik 3 the 1st doses were administered in early january and belgrade is in talks to start domestic production in an interview with r.t. renowned serbian film director amir because to return to said he's ready to take the russian job. i'm very happy to be. exposed to the possibility to get. a russian vaccine because it's may 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 routes it was 30 years old the idea of getting bucks ian was always counting on some percentage that people are not. positively but a majority of the people who grow up salute received by so a national accident is

a continuation of the history when i say once russian democracy it's an ideological i didn't through creation everything is becoming about politics today whatever you do the same is with books so let's hope russian job will be in the future since it's a continuation of production a russian side that is going to be much more spread that you believed before it starts. male customer well i must vaccination campaign kicked off in russia this week with every citizen given the opportunity to get the sputnik job authorities have set an ambitious goal to get 60 percent of the population inoculated by the end of the year not people can even get the job at shopping centers as constantino rushkoff reports the vaccination out here too and as you can see there are

people lining up to get inoculated i think there are 5050 dozens of people who are waited in the line right now and we're going to go inside and i'm going to give you what they were but before it let me just quickly know this is probably the nicest place in moscow right now to get inoculated you know after all this in russia iconic and most famous department store but of course it's hard to get through here and decoration for. this. reception. reception desk where you show your id this is actually all you need to get my candidate here and that goes for every russian citizen 99 pretty fall. no. one can see how you're feeling a i'm fine i just have an aegis throat perhaps you just need to drink some water yeah i already have i feel better now or have you already thought about how your

life will change once you develop antibodies. i hope it will change because i work in a museum we have lots of researchers so i hope my life will get better. i thought it would hurt more after the injection because this vaccine is supposed to be more serious than a flu jab but i feel no difference it's just like every of the shot this year i decided to get the job but while ago i was just waiting for the opportunity honestly i should have been inoculated in a local clinic but i just wanted to speed up the process because i want to be immune as quickly as possible. you know my husband and my friends took the job i have no reservations so i want to get it as soon as possible i think the more people that get vaccinated the greater in breakthrough vaccination it will have in the end. the vaccination is free of charge and that goes for every russian citizen who have decided to take a job all you need is to show your id and name your field of war according to

russia's top health care officials the main goal right now is to achieve herd immunity before the next fall just as certainly it would love to have everyone get the shot have no problem so far we have not been able to me nice people on such a scare from any type of infection but the fact that we will be able to get 60 percent of the overall population inoculated in just the 1st year is a big achievement so in addition to over $800.00 hospitals in moscow where you can get a job in a more traditional setting there are now that summation i would pose it at really popular and trendy places mostly inside shopping malls but also in an exhibition center and even in the theater and according to those in charge of rolling out the jobs there are over a 1000000 people here who has been ready to vaccinated. health care workers that essential workers were the 1st vaccinated became a rush to russia's health care ministry the country is planning to round off the

vaccine distribution in other regions by another $2000000.00 doses of spontaneity and they want to do this by the end of this month. in another big development of the week legendary t.v. and radio host larry king died on saturday he was 87 lori was admitted to hospital earlier this month after testing positive for cobra at 19 in a career spanning more than 6 decades he interviewed many world changing figures including kings and queens presidents and prime ministers sporting legends movie stars and everyday people with amazing stories to tell tale or look spock his extraordinary career. voice on a name at the became an institution larry king was the indisputable maust of the microphone and a case in point the when you find a job you enjoy doing that you'll never have to walk a day in your life are going to have

a bad day but it will not affect me when i. goes on. bad man. lawrence harry's i go was born into a poor family of jewish immigrants and brooklyn the sudden death of his father left the family in dire financial straits and to roger laurie badly finishing high school but he had to pass on to use the voice that had been given to him and i don't know why. a good voice pre-puberty people kept telling me you got to be honorary so i would imitate radio with less than $20.00 in his pocket a 24 year old larry set off for the sunshine state in such of golden opportunities that he said goodbye to lawrence harris i got and became larry king he took a gig as a d.j. all the while freelancing writing columns and trying to get on the air waves and from those humble beginnings he started he walked his way towards his big break

came in 1978 when king landed the upon a miss the late night radio larry king show it started in 28 cities 5 years later it was in 118 larry king became a household name radio's number one interviewer larry king thank you very much good evening everybody on this tuesday night wednesday morning across the united states this is larry king's show 10 years at peabody award later king decided it was time to move on and larry king life was born a smash hit from start to finish the longest running most watched show on c.n.n. pulling in a 1000000 viewers nightly for 25 years king with his trademark baritone sat down with presidents of rappers ballerinas even preachers and even killers mark where you really live with us those terrible moments for you for the world for a lot of people around and circles close to john lennon some said king was too soft

on his guests but his into the style made him a man of the people talk show host his uniqueness will simplicity no gimmicks no skits no long sentences and king insisted no preparation and i use that as questions i never thought about a question of a plan b. question i had questions written ever not to be outdone by that the professional life king's personal one was also full of flat a brief fall from grace off to accusations of grand larceny. i saw him walk as an announcer at a horse racing truck he was married 8 times to 7 women he went to the same bagel shop with his childhood friends every morning he reluctantly gave up smoking and red meat and even more reluctantly took up walking 4 miles a day he left voice mails for his assistance with what to post on his twitter and he had a flip phone until the very end. of your order that you have a flip phone. but

with phenomenal success also came miss fortune king overcame a series of health scares and was stalked by enormous personal grief including the passing of 2 of his children within weeks of each other the very next day king sort solace in the place he called home the studio where he stayed until the very last because the mohammed ali of broadcast interviews brought his unwavering voice and curiosity right here to r.t. and did what he always done best questioned more on the larry king question being listening learning you know of or several i never learned anything where i was talking it's important to listen to question more and more than 6 decades of success over 60000 interviews numerous awards countless suspenders and one inimitable voice a legend an icon

a king is dead i don't know what to say except to you. my audience. thank you and instead of goodbye. of soul. laughter the news broke i spoke to r.t. america host rick sanchez who worked alongside larry king for several years. larry king was the king he was the king of communications in america the even when outside of america i remember there was a time when i 1st started working at c.n.n. and my kids and the time were small and they came up to me and they said dad we're so proud of you now that you're working at c.n.n. and i said why and they said because you're working with larry king lear and king is a guy who was so good at his craft that he was able to do what most people in our profession would never be able to do and that is he didn't have to but guests

guests book themselves he would have a line out the door of people including presidents and prime ministers of every country in the world including the united states job easily who would be knocking on his door asking can you interview me i want to be interviewed by larry king what was the thin record the thing that laurie brought to modern popular journalism was it just a complete change from the existing format was it is subject matter what your fault . use curious he was he was curious almost to a fault curious in looking for answers without ever allowing himself or his ego or his story to get in the way of that curiosity he asked simple questions like how. why. where larry talk to his guests the way you talk to somebody you just

met on the street and you can't wait to find out more about their story and that's what made his interviews so good more of the week's news in 90 seconds. join me everything on the alex. and i'll be speaking to get out of the world the politics or. i'm sure i'll see that. i wouldn't support sort of the banning of trauma per se i think long before we reached this point there should have been enough and there should have been a set of guidelines and rules. technology platforms followed around specific kinds

of cases by which people might be maybe even not the platforms into steps they're on the way to there if they are stealing information that is going viral that is obviously false and or heedful. by these algorithms that are influencing the visibility of content that is heat fall and viral in those cases we need to intervene. on wednesday joe biden was sworn in as the 46 president of the united states bringing to a close donald trump's 4 years in office but i'm a deep divisions in american society people took their discontent to the streets

just hours after the inauguration. in portland far left members faced off with riot police officers fired tear gas into the crowd a mob smashed windows at the democratic party's offices in the city and spray painted his symbols on the walls. it was sort of violence with protesters creating barricades and starting fires in the streets as ticket to colorado where protests are set fire there to a large us flag in the state capital of denver scuffles broke out as counter protesters tried to put out the flames. well the an organization ceremony itself took place with the security presence so high but d.c. resembled a war zone unprecedented 25000 national guard members were called in to avoid a repeat of scenes like the one seen 2 weeks earlier during the capitol hill riot

the unrest following the swearing in ceremony came just hours after biden stressed out he'd strife to bring up i.q. . we must end this civil war pits really gives blue. rural versus urban or rural versus urban conservative versus liberal. we can do this if we open our souls to so harden our hearts if we show a little tolerance and humanity and if. we're really understanding the other person's shoes as my mom would say just for a moment stand in the shoes the spy has calls for unity biden has fired off a ruffed of executive orders the zine to dismantle trump's legacy the see the us or join both the paris agreement on climate change on the world health organization joe biden also rolled back a trouble upon targeting mainly african nations halted the construction of

a wall along the border with mexico well his inaugural speech was just over in the u.s. mainstream media level of praise that donald trump never got to enjoy while in office but his words didn't please our people those lights that are that are just shooting out from the lincoln memorial i look it's like almost extensions of joe biden's arms embracing america president elect joe biden and vice president harris told the 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 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 if it can't please play

today's media coverage because. i think i would upchuck it was the worst saccharin distance anadan 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 fair is fear itself and chris wallace said with a straight face that this was the best inaugural address. he's ever heard. i'm in a parallel universe imagine every cliche everything you've ever heard thrown

into a hat and just pulled out and ran and this just means this most. cult like it is incantation jump on stage and do you 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 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. a report this week commissioned by the french government tilman the country's colonial past in algeria knowledge historical wrongdoing however it stopped short of recommending an official apology in fact ahead of its publication the money will mark said paris had no intention of saying sorry the report proposes setting up

a memories and truth commission wants to change the way colonial history is taught in schools however it feels to look at allegations of systematic torture by the french authorities in algeria many aspects of french rule in algeria of the war of independence in particular are fiercely disputed by the 2 countries that conflict ended 8 years and doing in 1962 now it cost the lives of iran one a half 1000000 algerians president mccrone stunned some french atrocities in algeria well it used to be quite different while running for the presidency he actually did promise to apologize. colonna 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 won't they think about france's refusal to

apologize. and you measure to apologise and not enough moreover the time half of those who are in people were killed by colonialism we must not lie to each other. france is a clue know this 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. all of 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 coalition of algeria after the evian accords france with a jew 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. while valid as a wrap of the week that was so let's now take a quick look at what's on offer over the next 7 days or so stay with our international. well the pandemic no certainly no borders and is blind to nationalities. as america with turkey we don't have the facts in the world needs to be.

judged as commentary crisis what is interesting to times we can do better we should. everyone is contributing way but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever the challenges create the response has been much so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we are in it together. right now there are. people who are overweight or obese it's the 4th little self. and sugary insultingly and addict it's not at the individual level it's not individual will power.
