9:02 pm
earlier we will be following this story and bring you any updates as we get them in . years. and has been meeting with russia's covert vaccine developers to discuss ways of accelerating the rollout domestically and overseas and he stressed of the strong safety record of russian shots compared to foreign rivals. with more. probably the biggest news of the day here in russia and also a serious call friends boost for those who are still worried about the vaccination is the announcement from president vladimir putin that he is going to get the vaccine tomorrow that is going to be chouse day march 23rd but don't we don't know which of the 3 russian made vaccines registered in this country he has chosen and it looks like the kremlin doesn't want to reveal that in order not to give any preferences to any of the 3 manufacturers but mr putin has praised
9:03 pm
all of them saying all 3 russian vaccines are great so what you mean is today with full confidence we can say this something has been proven that russian vaccines are absolutely safe and effective none of the for an equivalence should the same level of protection once again this is a resounding success for domestic science and it's been recognized approved is the geographical adoption of the speed of the vaccine is actively growing the russian leader said that after providing the latest numbers on the vaccination in this country so far 6300000 russians have received the 1st component of the jab 4.3 are good to go with the complete 2 components now a broad 55 countries have approved the use of sputnik v. although a lot of our putin is making it clear that for the russian government the domestic
9:04 pm
campaign to immunize the public for now is the number one priority in the meantime a senior european union official has battled back after saying last week that sputnik v. was one of the candidates for official use in the european union in his latest t.v. interview terry bread tone said that the blog. pretty much doesn't need sputnik via at all and sided issues with production pace in russia. we have absolutely no need for sputnik v. the russians are having a hard time making it. the manufacturers of russian made sputnik the reacted to that statement almost immediately by accusing mr berg of being biased against just because it's russian they made it clear though that the only ultimate goal for them is to carry on saving more and more lives around the world the response from president putin also came quite quickly 1st he blamed some western officials and
9:05 pm
western media for leading a deliberate campaign to discredit russian made vaccines and also questioned the genuine goals of the people who make such statements. we are not forcing anyone to do anything but when we has such comments from officials the 1st question that comes to mind is who. do you represent the interests of pharmaceutical companies well to citizens of european nations what are you doing and these people are trying to lecture us so the bottom line is that despite what the russian side is calling bias and attacks against russian vaccines moscow wants to accelerate the pace of the production and vaccination both at home and they're looking forward to that abroad as well all right hungary's top diplomat is calling on the regulators to approve after he personally received the russian vaccine in an interview with r.t. the foreign minister explained why he thinks europe's inoculation campaign has
9:06 pm
faltered. vaccine is not a question of ideology for us it is a matter of saving lives and that if we had not contracted the chinese and russian vaccine be good and have saved the health care ahead of health and the lives of many hungry areas the hungary a national regulator has approved the emergency use authorization for nukes so i had no concern i was the one that asked by our government to negotiate with the russians on the ration of purchasing when you after a long serious of negotiations and we were able to sign our contract which are. a lot in accelerating the vaccination in hungary. there are 2 ways you know europe according to the european regulations how
9:07 pm
a vaccine gonna get approval one day's definitely through the e.-m. 8 european medicines agency through a l.s.e. ordinary procedure but you don't get the regulations also say there's another way in case of emergency and that these other way should be completed by the national regulators would use for the emergency even authorization so the fact that the hungary a national regulator has issue with emergency use or fraud offer a zation is nothing you know against their regulations and and that's what made us a little bit fed up you know that the way hungary has approved. it was going to be in the western part of your opening global media as if we had made something against the european regulations which is which is not true you wrote your regulations say very clearly that in a case of emergency you can make such an. icon give you an explanation why e.m.e.a.
9:08 pm
is so slow of course of course i mean bureaucratic explanations can be given any time and they can say that they they expect more documentation based by the russian counterpart to the sound but i don't know what i see is what i see is that there are vaccines in the world which are used by millions millions of people the russian or chinese but that these are not authorized here in iraq you know once again you know about the explanations canteens even the crime was not about the request it is about the lives of the people but more wrecks and you have and the more people you are going to say but i think very simple at least we speak about it for sure. the decentralized procurement procedure many. of us has failed to aspire to because regardless of the promises and the expectations there are much less
9:09 pm
back scenes arriving and much slower compared to. before why it became obvious that these shipments. coordinated by brussels are not satisfactory weave around there at the end by the same people by the same bureaucrats by the same pollutions why we want to buy additional vaccines for our own people we're our own people and i think this is a this is a matter of obligation over state over government to protect the lives of its own people. the u.s. is grappling with a severe migrant crisis on its southwestern border and a record $5000.00 and unaccompanied children are now being held in border patrol custody local authorities have run out of space to house them and many youngsters are being housed in cramped conditions and overflow facilities these images from the city of donna and texas were released by a democrat lawmaker is one of several border shelters that are now running at
9:10 pm
around 16 times capacity and many children have been stranded there for at least 10 days sleeping and eating on floors border crossings from mexico are now at a 20 year record presenting a big challenge for the by the administration with more here's what he's killed. well it just points we've got washington d.c. officials going back and forth about whether or not what's happening at the border is really a crisis we've got biden promising that he will visit the border meanwhile we've got the border officials and leaders of the democratic party in congress urging the administration to get back to reality take their share of the blame for the policies that seem to have the momentum this crisis and really get a grip on what is happening you have a breach of national security levels that have never before been seen in modern history it just blows my mind how disconnected from reality they are or maybe they do know maybe they just don't want to call a spade
9:11 pm
a spade you know because it's uncomfortable it's a slap in the face i said hey i just want to let you know what's going on we need to get a handle on this before it gets out of hand even within a week i was over to call in the white house to say hey guys you've got to take a look at it when you create a system that incentivizes people to come across and they are released that immediately sends a message to central america that if you come across you can stay while there are big calls for the administration to get things under control and start responding to what many are calling a crisis it seems like the biden administration does not want there to be media access to what is happening on the border and the u.s. facilities that have been set up one journalist was quite outraged about the fact that he had to go to another country just to take photographs of what was happening here in the united states he had to stand on one side of the border. i respectfully ask u.s.
9:12 pm
customs and border protection to stop blocking media access to their border operations i have photographed c.b.p. under bush a bomb and trump but now 0 access is granted to media these long lens images taken from the mexican site until now u.s. faces journalists have needed to stand in another country to photograph what's happening in the united states how many will recall that while donald trump was president photographs of children held in facilities detention facilities that were set up during the obama administration were widely circulated and there was mass discussion and outrage about you know what they referred to in the media as kids in cages and there was widespread does that ing of the facilities your recall congresswoman alexandria kazuo cortez had a well publicized visit to the detention facility and there was widespread coverage but the biden administration seems to be rather adamant that it is simply not appropriate to give the media access and to publicize what is going on at the u.s.
9:13 pm
borders i don't necessarily think that it's appropriate for a journalist to be inside out of centers that are at that aren't are not permanent place places for children and children are not placed there permanently now white house spokesperson jen psaki says that the biden ministration is very committed to what she calls transparency but it seems like when it comes to the situation at the border it's much better to divert people's eyes and change the subject and try to avoid bringing attention to something that is to resolve a situation that many are referring to as a crisis. conservative radio host dave perkins thinks biden's border policy is a part of a plan to create a permanent democratic voting majority. the media doesn't want to criticize biden for this year they want to shut you out instead there's not enough reporters complaining about this lack of access and like of transparency and that tells me
9:14 pm
government is up to something they are going to make as many people as possible come here as easily as possible because they need to get to their goal as quickly as possible so they don't lose any more elections so no more donald trump's pop up the democrat party is up to something they don't want us to know what it is so we're getting mixed messages and a lack of transparency because they don't want people to find out what they're really doing they have no intention of following any law that holds them back from getting to their long term goal the more children they can get into the united states the better their plan looks for future generations they're not just trying to do this to change the outcome of the next couple of elections they have a long term goal of generations of americans who are a an economic underclass permanent voting majority. the e.u. and the u.k. are still locked in the feud over code vaccines brussels has now doubled down on threats to block exports over chronic delays in distribution. we have the
9:15 pm
possibility to ban planned exports this is a message to astra zeneca you fulfil your part of the deal towards euro before you start to deliver to other countries it seems that the e.u. could be holding back all the millions of vaccines that are due to be transported to the u.k. in the next few weeks if it takes that decision to suspend the next to the k. now the move has incensed u.k. government ministers as you can imagine but also opposition party the labor party standing by u.k. government on this particular point and calling for calm from the e.u. i would urge the european commission to calm down the language cool the rhetoric and that's try and work together to get through this crisis. what seems most bizarre is the fact that this route is over astra zeneca jobs coming to the e.u. or not enough and that's because there is a huge amount of mistrust in this particular vaccine just for example here in
9:16 pm
france it's so high that only 20 percent of people say that they have faith in that job and as we know over the last week 19 european countries decide this to suspend astra zeneca over fears of safety in regards to blood clots and despite the fact that the european medical satan see as once again rubber stamped it that's not good enough for some e.u. countries who are still holding back and while in e.u. big wigs are talking about the idea of not getting enough astra zeneca doses to hear what they're not talking about is how many doses european countries are just sitting on millions and millions of doses that have yet to be used here now i also want to talk about what's happening in france because astra zeneca has been restarted as a campaign again but this new advice from the french health authorities here which means it can now only be used for over 50 five's completely different advice to
9:17 pm
what we had just a few weeks ago where president machen was saying that it was quasi effective for all their age groups and that some u.k. experts is causing a problem in undermining confidence it doesn't make any sense the whole thing looks completely crackers the changing the rules almost every week they're really damaging people's confidence in vaccines generally they're sitting on a massive stockpile of vaccines that they haven't deployed yet and at the same time they've got a massive wave of the new variants coming across the country you could make it up. there's also a question about how much of this row is about the e.u. trying to deflect attention from how poorly it's handled this crisis something itself has admitted and of course let's not forget the u.k. was invited to join the joint procurement scheme with the e.u. despite breaks at the e.u. politely declined and said we're going to do it our own way and as a result of that they speeding ahead with their vaccination program just to put
9:18 pm
that into context 51 percent of all adults in the u.k. have received at least one dose of a vaccine compare that to around 10 percent here across the e.u. as a whole in the field is really sort of paint a picture of how starkly different the campaigns are and some might say that this is now the e.u. throwing a bit of a tantrum and it's ready to throw the baby out with the bath water. you watching argue international after the break former top european officials published an open letter calling on brussels to stop caving in to u.s. pressure when it comes to sanctions for you the story and much more in about 90 seconds is our chief national.
9:19 pm
9:20 pm
welcome back this is our chief international now former top european officials are calling on brussels to stop caving in to u.s. pressure when it comes to sanctions including those against iran and russia and they have published an open letter demanding countermeasures with more here's artie's macaire. well this open letter which has been jointly penned by a former french diplomat pierre vermont's alongside 3 institutes in paris berlin and brussels calls for in short europe to stand up to washington now the letter suggests that europe europeans have grown weary of the domineering pressure coming from the us and encourages the block to consider acquiring the means of countering these extra territorial sanctions now one of the authors of the letter has been very open about this in the past. we must gradually convince europeans that when we
9:21 pm
don't agree with washington's political line we must be able to see no and continue political dialogue with them so the note goes on to propose a series of tit for tat counter measures all on a par with the kind of sanctions that the u.s. is placing on european countries companies i should say now such counter measures would include airplane hitting access to european territories to the. perpetrators of such sanctions also taking into consideration particular banks from countries issuing extraterritorial sanctions when it comes to them asking for loans from the european central bank a national banks there's a series of other council measures as well let's take a listen look at suspend the financial pass putting system which would prevent banks of this ancient country from operating in europe we could freeze the assets on european territory of certain public entities of countries issuing sanctions we have to show that we can retaliate if we want to be listened to so this bold call
9:22 pm
from europe clearly comes as the block has grown dissatisfied with this pressure coming from the us with europe please find itself not on the same page as the u.s. on a number of issues recently bit the iran nuclear deal being the u.s. pulling out of the climate change accord on the donald trump and then of course there's an ongoing disagreements over the strain to gas pipeline project so what is seems like we're seeing here is really europe calling for it to come together and to stand up against this external pressure but of course in a way that is fair on the par with those sanctions coming from the u.s. in a way that would ensure this ongoing friendly dialogue between the 2 sides. a federal judge in the u.s. has called on the supreme court to reconsider laws protecting the media from prosecution when commenting on a defamation case laurence silberman claim that the news outlets have become dangerous and are heavily skewed to one side of the political spectrum. the
9:23 pm
increased power of the press is so dangerous today because with very close to one party control of these institutions the new york times and washington post a virtually democratic party broadsheets nearly all television network in cable is a democratic party trumpet a democratic party trumpet i mean what an exaggeration it's not like they treated his inauguration as the 2nd coming of christ contrast on display the night was so stark i mean those lights that are that are just shooting out from the lincoln memorial along the reflecting pool i love you like almost extensions of joe biden's arms embracing america well they were just excited once i was actually in the white house they saw this throwing the tough questions at him. not to my corn crisis the media's not about that but they did go wild of those
9:24 pm
weird c.g.i. hands or maybe they were just expecting the other president or president harrison i took a virtual tour of the vaccination center zone or i will admit though that seldom is what great in terms of timing because remember that bombshell recording with donald trump pressuring elections investigated georgia to find him ballots so you wouldn't have to move out of the white house while the recording revealed that the post misquoted trump's comments on the call based on information provided by a source did not tell the investigator to find the frauds or say she would be a national hero if she did so instead trump urged the investigate to scrutinize ballots as in she would find dishonesty there. you will notice that establishment media errors missions mistakes and outright lies always slanted one way against me and against republicans meanwhile stories that heard democrats or undermined their narratives are buried ignored or delayed until they can do the least harm media
9:25 pm
outlets should be regarded as political entities not journalistic enterprise yes but that's just an exception because when it came to trump the washington post was very sad and honest and objective and balanced and anyway trump had fox news on his side always share leading yes i have heard how some democrats want cable companies to drop fox news one american news network on newsmax but maybe they shouldn't spread conspiracy theories no i'm not interested in what silberman said he should be borne in mind that the 1st step taken by any potential tarion or dictatorial regime has to gain control of communications particularly the delivery of news it is fair to conclude therefore that one party control of the press and media is a threat to a viable democracy well that's a huge saturation no one watches the news anymore anyway it's all about social media just that one twice not
9:26 pm
a democrat party trump it to be seen silicon valley also has an enormous influence over the distribution of news and it simply filters news delivery in ways favorable to the democratic party and although upstart conservative networks have emerged in recent years their visibility has been decidedly tailed boys social media he that by direct bans all content based censorship well that's not true what about paula what do you mean apple amazon and google while i'm sure it was for a good reason and as the censoring content yes that was the one time that twitter brought out one link to the new york post article about hunter biden's business dealings but it's a little like it was a big story that could've i don't know sladen. lection and anyway there are all the hard hitting stories to report on. some media pundits one that could trigger an assassination attempt so anyway it's
9:27 pm
a 10 told mystery to me why faith in the us media is an all time low but what happens with powerful people like joe biden he spent $2200000.00 according to f.e.c. records on public relations to squelch stories that would be just favorable to him i see the same tactic being used towards russia with anti russian propaganda that our political system is being influenced by capitalism and its kind of reach the empires kind of coming to a halt unless we focus inward and look at infrastructure so you have these corporate entities that own the media so the only information. and i find it stunning when i see them criticize other nations about propaganda when actually we need to look inward and clean our own house of a dozen from will be back in about 32 minutes with another full and fresh look at the news international.
9:28 pm
the world is driven by a dream shaped by our own person. the dares thinks. we dare to ask. humanity has never seen such strange natural phenomena before giant coming to us appearing in the amount peninsula. one after another. but never doubt about forgotten you could be of use to get you to believe you know them does love
9:29 pm
for those of us that he would be a. nice one appeared in 2020. how often and where will new creatures appeal is a discussion of how dangerous own day for human the slum only you is devoted to 18th and 2021 russian scientists came quite close to working out what's going on. they built a full scale 3 d. model of the black hole. when i'll show it's the same wrong but old paul just don't call. any new world building yet to shape out disdainfully comes to advocate and in again from an equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart when you
9:30 pm
choose to look for common ground. the government has to determine which zones is it going to insure and which those is it not going to insure and it does that based on the racial makeup of neighborhoods. neighborhoods that had a certain number of black presidents what had literally red lines drawn around them on the map. and they wouldn't insure mortgages in those areas because they believed that the property is would not hold the baby was going down imo most. banks take that same practice they decide they're not going to lend in those areas that meant that all these benefits that were flowing to potential homeowners were flowing to why it's another. element of racism into our ownership culture.
