more international attention being given because of the nature of the events of where these events are transpiring but the fact is this is you know the natural deterioration of things. of things that have been accumulating for months because it has really. a german m.p. was in moscow at the weekend to attend the victory day parade but left parties did today more than just in the city to take its sights it was also here to get a shot of russia. before the injection during which tested for corona virus and after the procedure it ended the politician got a medical certificate proving he received the 1st in early april the russian direct investment fund open negotiations with the german government. baddy buying spinning the stocks for germany came after russia applied in march to the european medicines agency the job approved in the u. that is still pending he today spoke to r.t. and shared his view on the coach state of play with facts and goals.

as an arm i know i'm a doctor of psychosomatic switches a combination of psychology and medicine and based on my limited medical knowledge the russian vaccine is one of the best in the world it is a vector vaccine rather than m r n a and it's a completely new approach to access in the mechanisms of our body the time available for testing has really been too short so in this sense the russian vaccine has become the best in the vaccine race i believe but i came here and got vaccinated and i also paid tribute to the memory of the red army that defeated hitler's fascism making it possible for me to speak freely with you today. as is it when sputnik v. was approved for use in russia on august the 1st the newspapers wrote in unison in large letters that it is putin's trash the vaccine is not trash our federal government and health minister are trash he has human lives on his conscience because he did not ask for the russian vaccine another federal government
2:11 am
administers a saying the russians should have come like a beggar begging for money and knocking on the door and said that they have a vaccine that they can sell us no if you want to save human lives your secretary of state should get on a plane fly to moscow and ask them to give you the documents so you can independently make a decision on this matter serbia has done this hungary is done this along with many other states only the germans turned out to be too scrupulous and simply lost time between august the 1st ingenue the 17th that's when mr spann said for the 1st time . the russian vaccine could also be very good as a result people have not received the vaccine so people could have been saved if the russian vaccine it received approval in the year in germany were not vaccinated . deve approved of the use you can give an independent approval only for germany as serbia did or hungry which is an e.u. member state my trust in the federal government is low and my trust in sputnik is greater. than this has needed political and
2:12 am
this is due to the most mundane geopolitical reasons simply because now both the greens and the f.t.p. see that we need a strategy that will hurt the russians disputable writes about it 8 years after the attack of the gym very marked on the soviet union politicians are philosophically discussing how to hurt the russians indisputable and other publications these are the reasons why they are trying in all aspects with big and small blows to worsen relations between germany and russia and the. french quarter has rejected a lawsuit against 2 u.s. chemical giants over the toxic herbicide agent orange which devastated the lives of millions during the vietnam war the court said it didn't have the jurisdiction to judge a case involving the u.s. government's wartime actions on french vietnamese victims found turn yar said she's disappointed the crime has not been recognized yet on the claim so. i was hoping
2:13 am
the crimes would be recognized i wasn't even asking for this crimes to be punished but if the crowd be recognized i was hoping those who heard of the human kind would have the courage to recognize what they did were appeal or start preparing now for this appeal. trenton yahoos 79 years old now i had worked in vietnam in her twenty's as a journalist and activist during that time the u.s. military dropped 17000000 liters of the chemical weapon on the country and turned the our father lawsuit 7 years ago claiming to have suffered severe effects from the poison that he shot in taking a closer look at the case. turn. may have ruled last. battle but for a collective fighting for reparations for the effects of agent orange the war is not over. the recommendations made by the american administration did not require product to be manufactured with a level of dioxin as high as that in agent orange this was only the result of the
2:14 am
initiative by the companies concerned. we consider our clients to be in the right we hope that mrs trounce on ya will have sufficient strength to cope with the health conditions with which she's afflict says so she can carry on her fight that came after a french court ruled that a complaint against 14 multinationals over the production all sale of the highly toxic agent orange during the vietnam war was inadmissible that's because the court said it did not have the jurisdiction to judge a case involving the wartime actions of the united states government which used the chemical as a deterrent. to
2:15 am
and they are now 17 going for a claim against the companies including most sensors and lawyers saying that she had sustained injuries as a result as had children. let me speak to. get a tip the type 2 diabetes cancer tuberculosis heart condition i've had them all a lost one child due to hardy facts i have 2 other daughters who were born with heart defects and my grandchildren too it's a tragedy a crime because with agent orange it doesn't stop it is passed on from one generation to the next until the end while trying to case has failed previous complaints have been successful elsewhere veterans from the us astray and career will compensated for the ofter of facts of the chemical residents had claimed to
2:16 am
have. poisons as a result of the chemicals seems to make the suit boring but the multinationals have all they could not be held responsible in this latest craze that's because they said that they had no control over how the american military used the product optimus said outpouring from arts and later this week to decry the perfect by the courts david frum's to not hold these companies to justice so let's even school artsy hard. right turn investigative journalist dave lindorff please multinational companies knew what they were doing and where this toxic side was going a whole story of agent orange use in vietnam by the u.s. and also in laos where it was also used has been one of the us and the companies involved avoiding responsibility you can't force
2:17 am
a company to make something in the united states they were making money hand over fist selling the stuff to the united states they knew exactly what they were doing they knew that dioxin was in it they knew it was dangerous chemical and they went ahead and made it and the u.s. government used it it was a war crime it was chemical warfare it left hundreds of thousands of people in multi-generational. illness and birth defects just horrible things he caused by this germ warfare and this chemical warfare that was practiced on the vietnamese people and the laotian people. still to come this hour thousands of nurses in the u.k. i think trying to mobilize during possible strike action is plain old after the break .
2:18 am
the problem with having money printing. near 0 percent or 0 percent interest rates is that it destroys. the economy because you're saying the underlying fundamental substance of the economy that is money money itself is the gras material economics of capitalism you're saying it as a 0 value so therefore if you have 0 value for the substance of your economy it's very very difficult to build something that you can point to value doesn't have any value because they're both equally value less. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. let it be an arms race. dramatic. will be ready. to sit down and talk.
2:19 am
thousands of nurses in the u.k. trying to become activists to fight what they think is a pitiful pay rise promised by the government the royal college of nursing is in this today renowned us experts in health care campaigning who teach this is how to become effective advocates. so the move will boost support for a strike ballot it promised to call if the government doesn't agree to an increased pay rise we spoke to bennett she thinks everyone who wants to stay in the profession needs to get involved. i think this long period of time and most obviously often candidly we're just not really be entirely for our words and the end of the day even if the nursing council allows us to kind of get involved in
2:20 am
activism work and i feel that the fact that we're not i actually get paid out a lot of us is actually good for seeds of this i think is a good way to try you know suspects and turn it into this is to leave the profession mason ice is going to it's a vocation that they love and i don't think that they should leave because they are unable to sleep because of wages so no rush of suffering on the show the government has offered just a one percent pay rise for n.h.s. staff in england and defended the move saying that it's what's affordable given the konami toll taken by the pandemic many viewed the offer as an insult though with the royal college of nursing demanding a 12 and a half percent hike. meanwhile a new survey by the british medical association shows thousands of doctors in the n.h.s. work under enormous pressure amid the pandemic or and half of work extra hours with
2:21 am
a quarter not being paid for overtime a 3rd of medics say they skip the breaks every bennett again says authorities should reward those on the front line. government to take the profession seriously and look at ways in which they can create better budgets in order to pay nurses there were no no's once to take industrial action you know we are really caring profession however we don't really want scenarios where nurses are very interested and living off of food banks you know some nurses having to apply to charities to afford a rent true example they can leave the concert lives influencing the government need to be taking the issue more seriously. a bombshell lekas alleges the walt disney company has been pushing extensive critical race theory training on employees the programs designed to tackle any form of intolerance but it turns out the methods and approaches being used aren't always having the desired effect on
