space station just days before the 60th anniversary of the 1st manned space flight . it's just a midnight here in moscow now saturday the 10th of april my name's welcome to your world and the stars in europe where governments are split on whether to restrict the use of the astra zeneca job on thursday the european commission warned that without a unified response public confidence in inoculation could falter we've been getting reaction in paris. it's confusing yes because to say that the laws change from one country to another while the product is the same we wonder on which study they are based those who had complications were rather young so they said let's stop it for the young but not for the old well i mean it's weird their management of the thing is not clear what he's for me there is
5:02 pm
a risk since it has been shown that there are people who have unfortunately died after getting vaccinated it is important to get out of this health crisis therefore we have to weigh the benefits and the risks of one use of same the risk is low in their best interest i think so they are never going to say that the risk is high and so that's what that doesn't surprise me confusing there is a bit of confusion we don't know what to trust so i feel a bit of the dark concerns over a potential link between astra zeneca and red blood clots is exposing the latest divisions within the e.u. after the book's agency that evaluates and supervises medicinal products that may once again said the benefits of the vaccine weigh the risks but saying that blood clots should be listed as a rare side effect not although we're convinced it measures have been taken it's only in spain of joined ranks with germany deciding to limit the job to those
5:03 pm
who are over the age over 60 belgium has followed suit with france now only recommending astra zeneca for those over $55.00 but those differences a causing a headache for brussels it's worried that without a common policy towards astra zeneca trust in vaccinations could be eroded commissioner as a member states to ask experts to work with him up to the hokie coherent approach across the reasons through their guidance and analysis the trustees the extreme important we want to avoid. course a vaccination however it may be that this ship has already sailed here in france there have been reports of people not turning up but they could be vaccination if it's astra zeneca and confusion over who should and who shouldn't have it is right there is also a question to be almost about why certain countries are making unilateral decisions
5:04 pm
against the voice of the may yet certain that may be simple the head of germany's vaccine commission said the a.m.a. evaluates vaccines based on what's of benefit to all in the e.u. individual countries though can be more picky in germany we have a slightly different situation because we're not so dependent on the astra zeneca vaccine and we can postpone vaccines and thereby achieve the same effect but in the end we still have the risk of these serious side effects in a certain age group over in the u.k. new restrictions on astra zeneca are even tighter than those that have been taken by the european neighbors the previously the u.k. dismissed questions raised about the jab now the government committee is recommending that healthy people under 30 are provided with a different vaccine and those who are aged 18 to 29 years old should be offered
5:05 pm
an alternative covert night in fact seen in preference to the astra zeneca vaccine regulators are now would voicing that astra zeneca provide another update on possible side effects and while for some the idea that they have a toy any chance of developing a fatal blood clot may be too much others say that they will gladly take the risk in a big to put an end to the code nightmare so all of the will be out see paris. san marino is set to become the 1st nation in western europe to use sputnik 3 as its primary covert vaccine the micro state which is located within italy has just received of 837000 doses of the russian jab a senior official told us why they turn to moscow. ok we thought our daughter's fed up we face a delayed to supply of the 1st doses of the pfizer vaccine which were covered by protocol agreements but when. the pen demick forced us to session or other
5:06 pm
solutions on the market through cooperation with the russian direct investment fund we managed to pare new doses of those politically vaccines and start our vaccination campaign vaccinations are now primarily being carried out with sputnik . we had an opportunity to receive scientific proof that this is a good and reliable vaccine and this is also confirmed by our own internal research of antibodies which measures the safety and efficiency of this up to date we have had absolutely no problems some minor reactions we have detected comply with standard reactions to unionization which include low grade fever chills and so on right now we have no problems with the army summary no hopes to initially boost its vaccination campaign and then bring it to a close before the end of may is home to around 34000 people and most adults there are lined up for the job ministers told us they've been working well with moscow.
5:07 pm
we are definitely happy with the vaccine and are surprised at how good our cooperation with the russian fund has been we saw the professionalism of the fun's workers and their willingness to help as well as quick supplies of the jobs it has been a very good experience of cooperation and i hope we will do it again in the course of future vaccination campaigns. of course our fight against corona virus has some particularities because we're a small states with limited resources our health system has limited capabilities to confront the situation caused by cove it this is where it's crucial for us to immunize our population as soon as possible when we saw there are existing vaccines on the european market is limited which complicated the start of our vaccination campaign we decided to contact the russian direct investment fund regarding sputnik the. other european medicines agency is still considering whether to approve the russian vaccine process it's been going on for several months a former italian m.p.
5:08 pm
told us the regulator needs to act faster. i think that europe is the laying tool matcher to. give india out brewery. to seizure or worse in europe and their political point of view it is ish to be their duty and their commercial point of view i'd prefer being that it is not so important because or even. if you were a commercial reason it would be in order it is a very bad week. a speed up but in case they do not i think that any way our government other governments should go along and choose what they want and the german health ministers announced that his country is in negotiations to buy the sputnik the shock from russia once the vaccine has a year approval again spot expects to never ease as soon as possible reporting next from berlin is peter oliver. well what we are seeing is the early stages of talks
5:09 pm
between germany and the russian direct investment fund for the for berlin buying doses of the sputnik the vaccine these talks are confirmed by health minister yen spon on thursday. the e.u. has said that the sputnik vaccine will not be part of the joint procurement programme for vaccines that system this all for $11.00 for all system of the e.u. commission buys in vaccines and then distributes them so well this is seen is germany taken independent routes in which they're looking to you to buy the sputnik vaccine we've heard time and time again from angola merkel that she was keen to use the sputnik the vaccine once it gets a.m.a. approval and certainly that is what we heard from again spawn again on thursday saying that once the european medicines agency give sputnik the the green light germany is more than happy to use it the announcement from yen spun that germany as
5:10 pm
a country would be in negotiations to buy sputnik became shortly after market zada who's the leader of the state of bavaria said that the variac had agreed what he called a preliminary deal with russia to buy 2 and a half 1000000 doses of the sputnik vaccine you know we're doing to give sputnik is approved in europe then bavaria will receive additional vaccine doses i think it's 2500000 doses probably in july through this company that is operating in bavaria to then once again increase the additional capacity for vaccinations. well looking at the reception to the sputnik vaccine here in germany it's pretty positive hugo of polling shows 55 percent of germans say they'd be more than happy to take a sputnik job politicians and local leaders as well also on the side with getting the sputnik the vaccine into the arsenal that germany can use against the coronavirus we vaccinate vaccinate vaccinate but when we need is the quantity and
5:11 pm
that's why the german government should finally sign contracts for sputnik be they should do their homework. every available vaccine has to be used russia is a great land of science and i don't have the slightest doubt that scientists there are capable of producing an effect of facts ian not everybody is as positive as stefan viol who's the leader of the state of lower saxony said that his state wouldn't be entering into any side deals like that that very are done saying they would stick to the agreement that had been agreed with the european union also there was an air of caution from yen spahn the health minister as he announced that these talks were going on to buy sputnik he said never mind any debate about whether germany should buy the code by axiom not could all well prove to be a mirage because what was important was whether germany could receive doses of the
5:12 pm
job in the next 2 to 5 months because if they can't they already have deals in place that would provide germany with what they see is enough maxine's to vaccinate their population what they need is these jobs in the immediate time for in an immediate timeframe in order to get them into people's arms straight away the sputnik the vaccine from its 3rd phase trials its face 3 trials receive just over 91 percent effective rate seeing against the covert 19 vaccine that was according to statistics that were published in the lancet medical journal. italian prime minister has branded turkey's president a dictator in a feud being branded so for gate it's after the european commission chief was left fuming on tuesday after she was refused a seat at the top level talks in ankara and relegated to a nearby couch. i
5:13 pm
absolutely do not agree with her no one's behavior and i was very sorry for the humiliation the european commission president wonder lane had to suffer let's call them what they are dictators with whom one nonetheless has to coordinate on the turkish government had back a box calling them impudent and ugly and on thursday the foreign ministry some of the italian ambassador to express its condemnation meanwhile the european council chief shells michel has defended his own conduct explaining why he didn't try to defuse the situation by vacating his seat. i was convinced that any reaction among the current could be perceived this paternity lism there was a risk of provoking an even more serious incident which would reduce the already fragile chills of having less negative relations with turkey. we asked political analysts in europe and turkey how sofa gate could impact the already troubled
5:14 pm
relationship between the sides. of course i think both of these persons are history shows and restored again probably didn't show themselves as a gentleman however there is a protocol in these types of situations and it appears that within the european union they don't really agree who is supposed to be number one and number 2 in this protocol shall be shot that in the protocol both of them should be sitting around erudite what is sure is that in this situation that images are terrible and there is a huge backlash and this spat between. turkey and i would say european union is a very bad press for president everyone who is trying to renew his relationship with in your in your opinion you need which is really pretty and cooling down our once an old school politician in protocol is extremely important to him there is actually no reason to apologize because the turks have not committed any type of mistakes regarding the seating arrangement this is exactly the conditions that the
5:15 pm
council protocol team wanted the e.u. media was so quick to point the finger at our going without even sitting down and investigating what happened when we look at the meeting between both sides there was there was some progress being made we were talking about sanctions we're now talking about were positive things keeping the agenda positive we're talking about more carrots less sticks so it was a step in the right direction but unfortunately the got overshadowed by this whole sofa gate affair this is obviously a soyuz rocket has taken a 3 man crew to the international space station almost exactly 60 years off the 1st manned flight from the same old site among all stories ahead after the break. because the banks are getting so much free money from the government they don't
5:16 pm
want to take even any risk on any small to medium sized enterprise or anyone looking to buy a house because why take any risk at all if the government just going to stuff trillions of dollars on your balance sheet. is your media a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe. high salacious community. are you going the right way or are you being led. by. what is true what is faith. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us

in the depths. or remain in the shallows. hello again israel has ruled out any cooperation with the probe into alleged war crimes in the palestinian territories the israeli prime minister's office accuse the international criminal court which is conducting the investigation of hypocrisy . the unacceptable interference of the court lacks any legal basis and contravenes the goals for which it was established at a time when idea of soldiers are fighting with supreme morality against terrorists and it's israel that the court in the hague has decided to condemn there's no other word to describe this other than hypocrisy a body that was founded to defend human rights has become a hostile body the defense those who trample human rights the i.c.c. launched its official investigation in march after a 5 year preliminary probe found evidence of war crimes committed by both the
5:18 pm
israeli military and palestinian groups the case focuses heavily on the 2014 gaza war back then israeli warplanes bombarded the territory over a 7 week period killing several 1000 people and dozens of israelis were killed in rocket strikes the i.c.c. probe is also looking at violence along the israel gaza border in 2018 a mass and the palestinian administration have welcomed the investigation saying their actions were justified acts of resistance speaking earlier about a political commentator when things israel has a long track record of evading responsibility for its actions. israel has never abided by any international law to begin with not starting right now with the international criminal court but any international law at all we've never heard anything coming out of the international community or the i.c.c. each concerning for example the. massacre in bed with 982 we never heard about further behind historic massacres that happened when the british landed in
5:19 pm
palestine and brought about what is now called as the israeli forces who killed hundreds of thousands of palestinians and move forward to 2008 also massacres in gaza when they bombed them with phosphorus and depleted uranium you ran you have a.p. reuters covering all of us incidents why would israel be open to this kind of and as to gays should when no other investigation was open before and no one. national was maybe put. illegality on the israelis to follow the issue is to tell the world that there were more crimes and these war crimes need to be dealt with. thanks to a new 3 man crew has arrived to at the international space station the soyuz rocket dock several hours ago after a flight from the baikonur cosmodrome in kazakhstan 2 russians and if you also don't draw from both cosmos and american magana have nasa now aboard the old with
5:20 pm
the station during that time that they'll be overseeing the arrival of a new lab module named science soyuz and they say 800 spacecraft that send the trio into space was named after the 1st human in space yuri gagarin. constantine boskoff was at the launch site as the crew took off. and. you can see why don't you know that out of the water if that means dad saw those engines or the firing and the rockets go into the store. if you could get a view. wow i mean we had amazing sight to see and everyone here at this viewing area are thrilled to see the rugged heading into space but i got to tell you something there are a new 3 people on earth there are more focused and the crew on board this saw use
5:21 pm
rocket because the 1st 10 minutes after takeoff are considered to be the most dangerous of their entire 6 or even 10 month stay in space now let me tell you few words about the crew so this time we have 2 russian cosmonauts 11 of peter do broth and then one american astronaut mark bundy hey despite investing heavily in space x.'s dragon program the united states and nasa are still dependent. on russia and pays the country to stand their astronauts into space earlier today they follow the same traditional route that each cosmina takes while ed baikonur 1st they left the hotel to the famous soviet song usually this is a very emotional moment because this is when family members get to say their final goodbyes to the cosmos before they leave our planet but this time they were not even allowed to come to the cause of a drone because of the pandemic and for the 1st time in history the traditional press conference with the crewmembers was held without us without media presence
5:22 pm
online only also because of the safety reasons but we were managed to pass our question to the crew members anyway and. very much like all families from relatives and friends to be here to at least communicate with them through the glass so they could see our lives only other than the 2 makes me a little relieved because the situation is still difficult everywhere and i would not want to risk that because we can see a few florida do a job without worrying that something happened to them here. we are all having to deal with the challenges associated with. i just feel very fortunate to have loved ones like my family and friends. even though they can't be here they're still able to communicate with me and share their support both main and backup crews were vaccinated in advance of the american stigma dearness shots while the russians. bottom line is that at this point no one wants to lead covert which has cost
5:23 pm
a lot of trouble on earth and to space now of course this launch comes at the 60th anniversary of yuri gagarin's flight which made him 1st ever human in space and this date april 12th is going to be widely celebrated across russia anyway you know this place baikonur where yuri gagarin journey started is by far the most the bast place to feel this connection with the history of space exploration which as you just saw is still unfolding. well as constantine mentioned that 60 year milestone is approaching on the morning of the 12th of april $961.00 of the craft blasted off carrying the soviet cosmonaut yuri gagarin it orbited the earth once on a journey that took 108 minutes but that flight broke an instant global fame and 6 decades later his name lives on now one thing that hasn't changed since go into time is there's always a single launch specialist who is the last person the cosmonauts see before they
5:24 pm
blast off or yuri mission fulfill that role for several years at baikonur and he's been telling us i would work. my head of department of the lift of transport launch equipment over to baikonur for 12 years now the 1st 4 years i was an engineer on the launch team i took part in many crew launches when i started working with the cosmonauts they seem to be more nervous than everyone else worrying that everything went world even after 12 years the nervousness is still there it never goes away the duty of care is always there but it's not so apparent with time because you become more experience than you know what to do and how to approach situations as for the cosmonauts they're always a good mood they're always smiling especially if there are foreigners among the crew we always passes with jokes and laughter no panic of the operations crew the last people to walk the cosmonauts from ground 0 to the spacecraft and wave them goodbye because minerals in a good way because they've been honored to travel to space and carry out experiments serving our country. our latest flight to the i s s continues and
5:25 pm
ensuring relationship between the world's leading space powers russia and the united states which is god regardless of political differences along the way that's our executive ken bowersox give us his perspective on that cooperation and the garron year anniversary. we have a great working relationship with our russian counterparts we love working with them we've worked together for a long time now we know each other's weaknesses we know each other's strengths you know and just like in any any friendship sometimes you don't agree about things that happens and and then we have this great way of working through those types of disagreements we talk to each other we try to convince each other one way or the other and we find a good resolution to the problem. i'm so proud to have been able to be here in kazakhstan and see the launch pad were eureka garden launched it was a wonderful experience you know that 1st step must have been fairy fairy heart can
5:26 pm
just imagine but it's also hard to take next steps right sometimes on a journey it's the most important step to starting but then it's hard to do each step after step after step after step and we're in that process now and it's great to have partners to work with us we support each other as we keep each other going down the road so that we can go further and further out into space together and as we gear up for the historic out of us for the 1st of a manned space flight we'll have some special coverage for you here over the coming days both from us.
