some more information. in his 1st foreign policy speech but. when it came to rest. of the world this is our pleasure to have you with us for the news hour. russia has ordered 3 european diplomats to leave the country for taking part in protests. in support of the jailed opposition figure. foreign minister the

e.u.'s foreign policy chief metz on friday in the russian capital. tell us. new thrash cracks in russia on the day when for the 1st time in 3 years the head of european diplomacy arrived in moscow for talks the decision to expel european diplomats from russia has nothing to do with the arrival of joseph is foreign policy chief but it does coincide with his visit so diplomats from poland sweden and germany have been ordered to leave russia for taking part in unsanctioned rallies in support of kremlin critic alexina vali during 2 weekends at the end of january the russian foreign ministry has called such behavior by the diplomats unlawful and unacceptable and the swedish embassy was the 1st to deny any violations of russian or international law by

a member of their staff the swedish foreign ministry strongly denies claims that the swedish diplomats was involved in recent demonstrations more entering the political development in the country of service is the responsibility of swedish diplomats in accordance with the vienna convention on diplomatic relations this reduce diplomat observed the demonstration since in petersburg within a standard diplomatic procedure eventually we heard the same from the german authorities and the polish government also said that they will come up with a similar response to the decision by the russian foreign ministry but only a few hours earlier during the press conference by sergei lavrov and joseph borel after talks we saw smiles the press event began with warmth with wards how much it's important to rebuild trust to go back to working together when it comes to the relations between brussels and moscow however soon after that the tone changed and very quickly we were reminded of what these kind of talks between the

most senior russian and western diplomats look like it sounds. looks like a game of ping pong when accusations are being thrown at each other chose a borel joined the chorus of leaders who slammed russia for the arrest of a like scene of ali and how the russian government has been dealing with him mr loughborough of an response called the attitude of european officials arab didn't and also blame them for not backing up their accusations against russia on the alleged poisoning of alexina volley and his arrest with any proof or anything reasonable. no istook on the same topic the west is trying to dodge the issue of finding the real truth of what happened when and where it's only seen a felony by focusing on protests in russia on numerous requests to provide us with the results of his tests remain unanswered by germany france sweden and even the pope at the o.p.c. w.

they say you already know everything well this is impolite at the very least and such are against on behalf of in lights and europe is absolutely inappropriate and unacceptable and then at some points the conversation began to resemble a different kind of game and which it seemed the ultimate goal was to convince everyone that a your opponent is more brutal in its violent police crackdown of protests it is fair to say though that this was encouraged by the questions from journalists. mr lover of sad he would send you videos of tough police crackdowns at protests in europe did you manage to watch them and did it change of us to whether the e.u. has a moral right to criticize russia for police action during demonstrations for sure the excessive use of force. it's not only russia that happens. and when this happened in a country where did i draw from all that is due to visionary who has to intervene

and these cases can be brought to justice and if there is that excessive force that is way of putting things in order after friday's events you might want to ask have we really seen much progress in rebuilding trust between the e.u. countries and russia it doesn't look like it or the hot button issue of coburn 1000 vaccines was also raised the meeting between the 2 top diplomats use a barrel expressed his hope for the fast track worth arise ation of russia sputnik within the block and now i am hoping that it will be in medical agency we will be able to certify the efficiency of these vaccine you know that could be useful szell into being union state who will be good new because as you know we are facing a shortage of vaccine or one country which has received its 1st batch of sputnik 3 is a row on the vaccines arriving in tehran earlier on friday the shipment comes as the

country hardest hit by a cold with 19 in the middle east is scrambling to get a steer on the pandemic. sport nikki 500000 doses of the world's 1st corona virus vaccine sputnik fever has arrived in iran the country's health ministry expects to receive more by the end of this month and medical personnel they'll do them and the most vulnerable will be the 1st in line to be inoculated the vaccine program is getting under way as iran marks yet another anniversary of this lime it revolution why has the sputnik the vaccine proved its efficacy which stands at 91 point one percent according to the lancet scientific magazine in russia there have been no reports of severe side effects after sputnik the so far iran has placed an order of 5000000 doses at the russian iran joint agreement on spending with the supplies also sets out its joint production to run the seeking to diversify its suppliers and at the end of december it completed its

1st clinical trials of a locally produced job and pledged to roll it out by the beginning of april the authorities are aiming to secure 2000000 more doses from russia china and india by the middle of march the health ministry is actively working on the group you're in 4000000 doses from astra zeneca these steps have been taken despite a ban announced by iran's supreme leader on important american and british vaccine . we are in need of at least $6000000.00 of those snored to get $30000000.00 of our people inoculated it will require a year until herd immunity develops we consider the russian vaccine an additional option target vaccine supplies to rand's gets in the russian vaccine and trying to secure other jobs despite crippling u.s. sanctions and amid public demands to provide the population but a safe vaccine meanwhile iranian health officials have raised the alarm about

a new wave of the pandemic which may be even more severe their arrival of the russian vaccine has been seen as a glimmer of hope for an end to the pandemic and used hardships phase. in the country. there has been a major twist in the case of british teenager who was killed in a road accident involving a u.s. woman in 2019 and so cool has fled britain claiming diplomatic immunity and she's married to a diplomat but a u.s. court has heard that she was working for american intelligence of the time of the incident meaning she might not have been immune from prosecution or t. shirt. to the story when it's been a year and a half since her last his life and the family are still now seeking justice but it comes as the latest revelation which could be a potential game changer in the entire narrative is that it's emerged that answered us the woman who has been accused of killing her 8 done is allegedly working for

the u.s. intelligence at the time of his death now it is potentially a vital piece of information and potentially alters the fundamental principles of her rights of claiming diplomatic community at the time of her downstairs she did indeed came diplomatic immunity she fled to the united states and was later charged by death by dangerous driving then was an extradition request to face the justice system here in the united kingdom but that was refused all of that was on the basis that she had no specific role in britain so now it has emerged that she was working for the u.s. intelligence and that would therefore put into question have rights to diplomatic immunity it is indeed a huge step towards justice for her and his family because harry downs mother charlottetown has long been fighting tooth and nail to get to that i tell you will poorly you'll get into getting justice twenty's lay in the. life left in literally every bone in his body can. if we all can damage to the point we couldn't

even do all condonation someone has to be held responsible for that in this world should be able to take a life. now a court in virginia has heard that her work was especially a factor in her leaving the united kingdom but granting diplomatic immunity was controversial from the very beginning it was extraordinary and it was a loophole between the legislation between the 2 countries which has now been rectified and that loophole has now been closed up between the united kingdom and the united states but in light of this new information all of us working for the united states intelligence the family are now calling for an investigation but the whole issue of diplomatic immunity in the 1st place has always been questioned why would team key seize a lawyer is always very very clear right from the off that she never had immunity at the time of the crash but what does retrospective revelation mean today well

there's certainly now more of a case to be answered for and indeed throws the entire premise of diplomatic immunity out of the window however the family were really hoping that president joe biden would allow for the extradition of bounce a curious that was a decision that was final according to president trump and has been reaffirmed by president joe biden as well regardless though the case has been adjourned until february 17th but the latest information from and secured us and her legal team is that she is currently apologetic and indeed she accepts responsibility for the accident but she feels she would not face a fair trial here in the united kingdom having said all of this this latest information that she was working for u.s. intelligence really could be the final piece of the puzzle in the case for justice shirley edwards still she will a lawyer for his family told us extradition is always more of a political decision the legal one. it was an astonishing revelation on

wednesday night. this is so cool this is our own lawyer in open court and we were completely taken by and i have to say it's really unsettled the parents dominick rob must come forward and explain what he knew about mr suit who this is employment status and when he found out a lot of that's very important we need to find out some more information about her status and how it might or stack her client to diplomatic immunity and we're hopeful that the government will step forward and give us those answers as soon as possible extradition is always a political decision rather than a legal one if the united states simply refused to extradite her there is nothing anybody can do for me this whole diplomatic community issue as it is is irrelevant because this is not what it's to be used for. the united kingdom is facing a widening poverty problem with millions of britons grappling with increased

hardship because of the pandemic charities food banks right across the country and reported a surge in demand as kate partridge reports. coronavirus pandemic could push the amount of people living in poverty in the u.k. to more than 15000000 almost a quarter of the population since then the u.k. seen another surge in infections and deaths in the financial provisions of looked down with more people were lying on food banks like this one in east london which last september used to provide 23 passes a day and now provides over 80 service things have happened which made on numbers of quadrupled so we had a lot of stray homeless people taken off the streets put in the hotels on the line wrong for dr why we're situated and sorry day that's about 40 or 50 of them that come in and we help them there are more than $2100.00 food banks in the u.k. of which $1200.00 a run by the soulsby based charity the trussell trust it's seen an almost 50

percent increase in demand during the pandemic with nearly half of those relying on food parcels being children the bonnie downs community association in east london helped 4000 people between april and june last year compared with 622 in the previous 3 months the beaumont lease food bank in leicester sore numbers increased from 40 families before the pandemic to 500 a week since march the new start spewed bank in the wish to shutout of brahms' group said demand had risen by 700 percent over the same period and the dog more community kitchen hob in devon said that of the 130 people died helped since march only 20 had previously needed charity food aid people who are now rely on food banks come from all walks of life one volunteers said she was left in tears when just before christmas she'd given a food parcel to an n.h.s. nurse a group called the people's army set up a food bank at the angel church in north london and the pastor in charge regan king

says the demand from people who were previously vulnerable is striking we have a range of people who come to us we have families with young children all the way up into their teens. and we have people who previously had never used a food bank before they have used this service and we have people who have never really had to depend on anyone much less charge for helping sustenance who have come through the doors and that's in addition to the normal need to fix their butts with the emergency be u.k. of more transmissible variants of coronavirus some food banks have had to focus their work on deliveries one charity leader wrote to the prime minister warning him that if the government doesn't act the food banks on which many thousands of people now rely might have to close their doors we have very concerns that the halley can say just new strain of call that 19 could put food bank staff volunteers and the

people they support at increased risk of infection and that self isolates and measures may involve the reduction in service of closure of food banks and is not just charity workers who are writing to boris johnson one of the nation's senior food policy experts has criticised the government for failing to provide its citizens with nutritious food security in response the government said the system is working we continue to work closely with the food industry who will be well prepared to ensure people across the country have the food and supplies they need but an almost 50 percent increase in the demand for food banks during a pandemic that puts their existence in jeopardy could ultimately see the government forced to maintain a charity sector that's been sustaining the population kate partridge altie london concern to the capital of a spa michel and of new york where people have been lining up for a free food provided by a local convent its head admitted that the number of those in need has increased

markedly since the outbreak at least 300 people are said to show up daily. the ultra orthodox jewish community in israel is pushing back against the national coronavirus lucky dog we've got that story and more few in iran the 2nd. the ruling classes rarely agree on much but not when it comes to china it is agreed the u.s. needs to some know get tough with beijing which is not really meet engaging china well trying to contain it isn't even possible combined ministration will eventually have to answer this question. is your media a reflection of reality. in

a world transformed. what will make you feel safe. tyson nation community. are you going the right way or are you being so. direct. what is true what is. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the death. or a major in the shallowness. of the work in the us president joe biden has delivered his 1st major foreign policy speech since taking office more than once the line diplomacy is buck was arthur

during the address but biden seemed to be anything but diplomatic when it came to russia artie's dull quarter can talk us through the main points. biden's 1st big foreign policy address sent a clear message that trump's america 1st policy is out and diplomacy 1st is in but it seems like for the new president diplomacy means picking a fight with russia before the end of his 1st 2 months in office i made it clear to president putin in a manner very different from my predecessor that the days of the united states rolling over in the face of russia's aggressive actions interfering with our elections cyber attacks poison its citizens are over we will not hesitate to raise the cost on russia and defend our vital interest in our people. and these accusations are nothing new really we've heard many of them from the trumpet ministration the obama administration we've also never seen any corrupt conclusive

evidence to corroborate these claims but at this point it seems like russia's approach probably used to it. in general it's all quite predictable the strategic guidelines are still the same and the still alarming it's a matter of interpretation russia has no malicious intent and does not plan to violate its obligations unless the thought up specifically for the next round of sanctions in other words if the white house wants to see end of the intervention cyber attack threat to american interests in any corner of the planet it will do even if we do nothing at all if it doesn't want the space for dialogue is open the choice is with the americans sure biden my biden's administration might be beating the dead horse of anti russian rhetoric but his comments did come alongside a number of 180 degree turns away from the previous administration's policies like for example reversing trumps decision to withdraw u.s. troops from germany and being support 'd for saudi arabia's military conflict in yemen and also making l g b t q politics and integral part of u.s.

foreign policy all goals that the biden white house has made clear that it believes will bring america back america is back to plumb lucy is back at the center of our foreign policy as i said of mine are going to address we will repair our alliances in gage's with the world once again not to meet yesterday's challenges but today's and tomorrow's. after hearing that statement though the question you've got to ask is back to wide if we're talking about the obama administration for example that means the time of drone strikes on independent nations a time of poor relations with russia and even the heyday of the islamic state as the former secretary of state mike pompei o pointed out back as they mean back to when isis controlled a caliphate in syria that was the size of britain not i don't think the american people can afford to go back to 8 more years of barack obama's foreign policy so we've got a new administration in the white house but a lot of new policies that hearken back to the obama days so for washington's

foreign policy stance on russia that's probably going to mean another 4 years of the same old story. despite a world leading mass vaccination program israel has voted to extend the national coronavirus lockdown until sunday the decision was made just hours before the measure was due to expire for compliance with the restrictions including among the ultra orthodox community. a top class jobs program isn't enough to beat the pandemic on its own israel's death toll from the virus passed the 5000 mark today all asli reports from jerusalem. they shouting at us that we are no arklow to provoke you a situation we're not far from the heartbeat of the ultra orthodox community here in jerusalem now we were forced out of play with people shouting at us this community is at the same time off of rao over a lockdown measures we simply eat thousands of ultra-orthodox mourners many of them

with mosques took to the streets to attend the funerals of 2 rabbis it caused an outcry in israel and of wasn't the 1st time as the country struggles to deal with its handling of the coronavirus the society is becoming more and more divided many people in jerusalem do not support the behavior of the ultra-orthodox neighbors i don't know exactly the statistics about the ultra dark or for the fury but i do know that under $65.00 this existence is there one out of every $10000.00 people died there only that's a very very small number i actually think that the bigger problem is the fact that the government over here is. making convincing everyone to take this vaccine that no one has any ideas about and no one understands that term side effects of now. i think anyone who doesn't put on a mask is like a murderer it is against all the rules of the rabbi all the rabbis who are against

him these are the people who don't have communication they don't have television and they simply don't know what. this disease they don't believe it they don't blame the gruner virus the blame the hospitals i can't understand the level that people can believe conspiracy theories israeli government has voted to extend the contract down until friday it's double fines and it's keeping the airport shut it's becoming an increasingly let me for the police to kontrol for those who refuse to adhere to lockdown measures we requested a comment from the police but they declined to comment at the same time the ultra orthodox community says it's feeling persecuted you come up with the hatred doesn't lead to anything good in the world there are a few rabbis who think i don't belong to them they think the coronavirus is imaginary this is what they think this blow from having the lockdown is god giving us clues he's hinting to us that we have to fix something while there are calls for

israel to be divided into different covert 19 news zones the country's prime minister says the lockdown bulls apply to everyone regardless of their religion the ultra orthodox community comprises some 15 percent of the population but according to the health ministry it also represents more than 35 percent of coronavirus cases the latest word from the government is that the current nationwide lockdown may not be israel's last. r.t. jerusalem the friend some political commentator amir oren say is the benjamin netanyahu is treading a fine political line. well you're asking. him a question but these day record that people who may not believe in russian only by the very fact that they are all pro at the docks. today were gotten believe they're spiritual leaders they don't care about the country the government the rule of law

and netanyahu is not the best and on the box representing these very dear mourners these very drugs for the survival date these engage. and strobe to support for anyone else is spinach and if the spanish politically is legal situation because he's now standing trial for corruption would be much worse so he's now on a whole sort of dilemma if he does not enforce the coronavirus regulations properly and it will be a secular voters turn against him but if he does the all pro looks policies will turn against him and. that he will not manage to do both at the same time for the next month. well for

a deeper dive into any of this our stories do check out our social media channels and give it a click wherever you see the r.t.e. local i mean o'neill buy from the. when i was told seemed wrong we all just don't. let me. get to see palin. become educated and in detroit because the trail. once on many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.

all of them too so think of visionaries me sophie shevardnadze our memories help shape who we are but what if they're not essentially ours can they be false today i talked to dr elizabeth loftus cottages psychologist and research expert on human memory. dr rose of the loftus cognitive psychologist research expert on human memory really great tell you with us today welcome thank you all right so you have been researching memory for decades now and your credit famous for saying better human memory is unreliable what does that mean exactly i mean i understand

perfectly when people just forget things right les words by remote or what were you was it with then i went to jamaica etc but you mean that even the things that we don't forget that we know that we know are not necessarily true. right to the problems of memory or much more than just not being able to think of something when you want to think about it or forgetting something some fact that you're searching for i study the opposite problem which is what happens when people remember things that didn't happen or remember things that are different from the way they actually were so i study false memories i think i can best explain it by describing a some of the experiments that that i've been doing over these many decades so a large percentage of the involved showing people say oh.
