me ah rushes flagship business event, the st. petersburg international economic for him is in full swing. we'll take you through the latest deals on discussions from the countries northern capital also ahead shocking evidence emerges in france regarding bodies donated for science of research. instead, they were sold for use of military experiments on crush sicilians come against the mafia don't dub the people slayer walks 3 decades after killing more than a 100 personally struggling and dissolving a young victim in respect to the widow of one police officer. the thing that infuriates the most is that italy does not make its outreach public. i think all of

sicily should take to the streets because he did not just threw in my family. if you in the whole sicily ah, around the clock across the world. this has been use r and r t great to have you along. i mean in st. petersburg is the epi center of global business, movers and shakers. this week, the city's international economic form has now wrapped up its 1st full day with an array of high level gas, taking part on thursday. no surprise the, the pandemic and how it's altered the business environment was the early focus of many of the consensus is emerging that the health of the global economy depends on a swift return to normality through an occupation programs. the issue of health care are being turned into a geopolitical football. was also a hot top when was the world health organization and european medicine

agency are approaching the end of their review of russia. sputnik v vaccine. the w h o director for europe is up the forum and told us they could report their findings as early as this week. he added, everyone should remain cautious this by the recent decrease in covert cases. i am an optimist from nature, but also looking at the data because it's very important that we look at the data. we see that the new cases, the hospitalizations, are decreasing week after week. and that's a great news. and a large part because of the roll out of the vaccination. but i'm also worried about what we call the variance of concern the mutants, particularly the b 1617, which goes right fast and can impact the people a bit more severe. so of essence here is speech,

because let's not forget that last year of the summer, many countries thought that were also there. and then there was a search. so by all means we have to avoid amidst some research and also in the fall and winter. so what needs to be done is that the people get used when we get to fall in the winter again, 2 years must, is needed to be cautious because we don't know exactly the effect of the vaccine on transmission. we know that it decreases the severity of disease. it decreases the bits, but there is a number of unsolved questions. so we need to hold the for and really speed up the vaccination process as the regional director in charge of the w tools for europe in region. my always had been very, very clear that approver should not depend on the concrete of origin and particularly not of direction figuration which has

a very rich history in vaccines production. so help be young politics. that's very but again, debris to emerge. his listing has a set of procedures to be sure on the safety, efficacy and the quality of the vaccine. in fact, right, know, the inspectors are indirection federation going to the different site. ready the mission will finish 4th of july for let's say, as we speak, and then a number of recommendations are given that the country can and should of course then adhere to. so i'm very, very optimistic. but i would like to come up with a direction for the nation, for really not only one of the team, but several vaccines. i also would like to think there's a date for the international solidarity because we need countries like russia to help the piece only was sort of that if we are going to get out of that, what should not happen? is that concrete? keep the vaccines until 70 percent, 80 percent of the population before sharing the smaller countries and received that

up, expect of the mutants. that's not going to be safe until open to be safe. the director has create integrated with unicef. they've got the recipient, the so called facility. this is the facility, reach to more than 90 low income countries will provide equal access and more and more countries or donating to the callbacks mechanism. but again, the face is not quick enough. well, the point is what's called transfer of technology. but yesterday i was participating at the forum organized by the minister of kind of document article, direct security. and we're sitting to get it industry, public sector, it signs government resource opportunity. never science has been show or evil lucian already. so we should also look at the positive sites that previously competing companies are know, sitting around the table for the global public books. so again,

i'm very optimistic about this that we should pull a break to get it increase the production capacity. also look at trades values and to really work to get it that everyone has equal protection. but of course, it's true that in most countries we saw that upon them a very, really good politicize. and i think that's one of the, this is also for rachel, that science is very important. but we have to translate the science to be helpful for the politicians because we saw scientists playing politicians. so politicians bring scientists, but everyone has the job and we need to come to get it, but not to interfere, but politics into health. because ultimately, the people who had suffered are the most vulnerable. and if it is one lesson that i learned from probably 90 it, is that the people, the migrant, the prison, this,

the homeless, the 4 people got even affected disproportionately. and we should leave no one behind about 26 percent of the population in the w to to be region, which for me, but 53 member states got at least one dose. so that's a good news, but what worries me in equal access, it cannot be the from country start to vaccinate that younger healthy population. and other countries, health care workers, elderly people, are not all vaccinated. but again, the good news is that 75 percent of the people atheist or bus or vaccinated. and you'll see that no the represents the smallest proportion of new infections. but definitely we need to govern over effort. so we need to increase the production capacity. we need to increase the number of vaccines and very important

increase succeed hesitancy. we have to decrease, hadn't been an increase in except the printer before. temperature is what we call universal health coverage, which is at the heart of the sustainable development goals. it means that every individual should have access to good all of the services, including pharmaceuticals being over, you know, how to reach did that a different race? the principal, the reason very could hold strong these what they call the winter to ration. so it shouldn't be that vaccine automatons is too expensive for the people that they cannot afford it. but at the same time, we also need to incentivize industry to innovate. we need the interesting and that's what's happening over here. and of course, he's also not forget that to produce a vaccine is a complicated process. so companies, what's like to think the technology then also it come to follow what the send the

safety found that efficacy standards. but i'm very happy that those issues are not in the open being debated. ready again, this is a positive side of the form, the next that previously very difficult conversations. no, look, i'm come and talk, including the people on the street. and that makes me very hopeful. one of the recommendations we discussed with the ministry of health and foreign affairs. when it was in moscow on tuesday, is to create a g 20 global health board model on the financial stability board, which came out of the financial crisis to have a bourbon link between health and the finance ministers and the federal state. and also to has a fun you to be in health threat counsel, because we need a structure for collaboration among defeated, member states at the level of head of government. because we saw in the beginning crisis that it was a lack of clarity. some countries close that about this,

even when you result consulting, and then all side of that you might want to be region. so we need a structure, collaboration. we can just during b times. so when the water breaks out, we know immediately what to do, sit on the table and have coherent in policies. because if you want to be dealt with, for example, the certificate of know about the smartest digital certificate. we are going to organize next week, a regional meeting to bring the country to get it all having and harmonization because a certificate is necessary, but it should not be a passport, which is used to stop people from traveling because that's the only increase iniquities. and we were just discussing a shortage to vaccines than maybe the vaccines. we got the only people who want to go for tourism instead of over health care worker. i would like to thank the health care workers been version federation for

a tremendous job. i have great respect for the health of the social workers. i would like to say from the bottom of my heart. another major talking point from the event was russia's announcement of it will completely remove dollar assets from its vast national wealth fund. breaking on just what that means. here's our t's ilia patricia. while this does appear to be a major landmark and something that's called detail or zation, or giving up the dollar in national asset shares and international trade, because more than a 3rd of russia's national sovereign wealth fund is currently in us dollars. so the national wealth fund, which is currently worth $185000000000.00 us dollars. so we're talking serious numbers here is designed to stabilize the volatile ruble from swing all prices. and also it could be used as a store of cash to be potentially spent on things like pensions and social welfare

in difficult economic times. so it has been decided and announced by russians, minister of finance, that the dollar will be replaced by gold, the euro, and the chinese you on most importantly, at the st. petersburg, international economic form. we heard from russia's 1st deputy prime minister. he was frank when he was saying that the reason for this move is the threat of more potential us sanctions. it will only take about a month to make sure that this shift happens, which has already become the number one financial headline at the form here and st . petersburg and a little earlier in the afternoon as the russian president spokesperson. dmitri pasco, also way did on the international context of the decision. i didn't say that the diesel was ation process is constant. it has now become obvious,

and this process of the dollar is actually taking place not only in our country, but also in many other countries. in the world that study being concerned regarding the reliability of the main currency. it's not a surprise that russian law makers really welcomed the move and said that it's a very important step towards further strengthening rushes, national, financial and economic sovereign. besides this, this decision will really strengthen the role of the chinese currency in russia out of time when beijing and moscow are really continuing to pursue stronger ties in almost every aspect. in the meantime, we have already heard voices of concern from across the atlantic, including from one commentator who used to be a us treasury official. he said that the situation in which the likes of russia ran and try to continue the scene of the dollar is something that could really be

a cause for concern in america. this trend towards diversification is global and accordingly given the over reliance on the dollar before the hyper centralization of the international financial system on the dollar and the proceedings decades some the, the authorization and reduction and the role of the dollar is to be expected. i think we're definitely seeing 1st of all, higher demand internationally for more reserve currency, other reserve currencies the, this is something that the central banks want to have. the optionality, the ability to have a wider set of reserve currencies them accordingly. and there is demand, there's going to be supply, i think we'll see more reserve currencies further down the road. there are going to be more alternatives. i think the goals will continue to play a significant role and probably an increasing role in the reserves that

that countries will have in the coming years. lots of interesting and for us out the form today, we also talk to russian foreign ministry spokesman about a range of topics including moscow, washington relations we already have. we've been saying that we want to establish ties with the united states based on mutual respect and international law. of course we have common ground as well as point of disagreement, and it's ok where different countries our history is different. but we also have different approaches to its various issues, foreign and bilateral, not mine, but that doesn't mean we have to sold those issues in a confrontational manner. and it doesn't mean that we have to dodge every possible opportunity to so the issues we've been stressing this all the time. we see how rushing us relations have been degrading recently. and washington has done, it didn't different goods, including some of the ones that just to come. many times russian diplomats had been ground as the ex power from the united states in recent years. and how many times

in the states has made up so called holiday reasons. the force made a member states to expel our diplomats a chain of hostile steps led to us issuing a list of from friendly states with the united states and the czech republic and so far. but this is not a matter of our initial attitude towards them. just the response to the actions was actually just one of many topics summary as a horror of a spoke to r t a. but the full interview, by the way, is available now on our youtube channel. so a busy day after forum which runs through the weekend in st. petersburg. we'll make sure you don't miss a thing right here in the me the

the what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy foundation. let it be an arms race is often very dramatic. development only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very political time. time to sit down and talk to mckay. this works so well. people don't like to use the word inconsistent. they like to say, oh it's, it's amazing or comprehensive oral mysterious. but i say it can't be quite right. and this is what direct says, this is what i just was reading

ah ah ah. 18 minutes into the program. welcome back. gruesome details have emerge of how bodies donated for medical research in france are being used. charlotte to ben ski has more now on courses being sold for military experiments on crush tests. its new res hale, many thought could become any grimma in 20. 19 the message that the bodies that had been donated for medical research had in fact been left to decay in unsanitary conditions. here in what was the center for the donations that the former perez dick university described as being nude decomposing with maggots in a room infested with raps,

a mass grave in the heart of paris. it was some reported, it was still, it was revealed whole bodies. lynn had been sold to private companies for a price now in the latest sinister turn it to be confirmed that somebody was told to act crush, sell me these allegations had been made previously. but now there was evidence to show dead bodies were being used in this gruesome way in the caught industry. almost 40 percent of the money owned by the center for body donations came from industry that left families of those who left their bodies to medical science. shocked and devastated once again, make a good tool. now, when we found out we the families of the donors that the bodies of our parents were used to replace crash test dummies. there was a real stupor because nobody could have imagined this. so we are in

a situation in which we are all facing a nameless confusion. there is disarray because no one was informed. it is necessary, the doctors who had any connection with the scandal because it is a real scandal explain themselves. and then those who are responsible will have to face justice and pay for their deeds. there was no respect for the donors. that's the 1st thing. but the 2nd thing is that there is a market for bodies. they were so they will use it is an abomination on the people who did that must explain themselves. they are culpable, and the punish. this practice is not illegal and some argue that the use of corpses in this way is in fact essential. today we face the problem of shock trauma amongst subjects who are very overweight. we are forced to use a corpse to acquire data that will be transposed into the modal. this is essential . we want to ensure that the devices are not aggressive and dangerous for humans. call manufacturers were not the only ones to have use for these tests. so

today, the french omi, including to observe what happens in a vehicle when it hit a mine. you pick your hold or personal wishes were not taken into account. the people who and the militarist imagine their body has now served in a military experiment, which goes against their way of thinking. it is necessary not to forget. one thing to give one's body is the most final act of altruism in the world. when we give a body, you deprive a family of a funeral, someone who donates that body. it's still the most beautiful gesture of humanity. it's like a person is saying, i give my body for the in turn on the medical students to practice on. i'm a come doctors in the future to realize that these bodies were using a tank explosion. for example, i can understand what damage the explosion made for the body. it's just horrible. they can,

has been closed since the revelations emerged 2 years ago. the university apologize at the time for families of donors, but the scandal could provoke big changes here in front of government report and do this month is expected to recommend better supervision of the donation of bodies clients. but that, of course, will be little consolation for the family to be ready given their bodies for medical research. so let me see paris there's i rage in italy after a mafia boss known as the people slayer, was freed from prison. this week, giovanni bruschetti had been convicted of overseeing more than a 100 murders, but has not been released on pearl. among those killed was an 11 year old boy whose body was then dissolved in acid. also on bruce goose record was one of the state's most infamous murders, the assassination of top murphy, investigator,

giovanni full. coney, in 1902 full colonies, car was blown up, killing him, his wife and 3 police officers. we spoke to the partner of one of the officers about the mafia. don's release, hail normally metal. he's now 3 men had it really hurt, even though it was not a surprise because there has been a lot of talk about it lately. obviously it is a blow. giovanni boost car has been released because he collaborated. we're still do not know the truth. so why is he not free? we have never sought revenge. we have always asked for justice. today it is clear, it's just as business exist, who would like to stay to be alongside us to be more tangible and imposed certain penalties as antonio's wife and mother of his children. i'm resentful. however, the thing that infuriate me most is that italy does not make its outreach public. i

think all of sicily should take to the street because he did not just throw in my family. he ruined the whole sicily. after his arrest, bruce get turned informants which shortened his term after decades behind bars. here's how people in sicily reacted to the news. if it should turn this and they got, it evokes memories of the tragic events. brusque is responsible for these cases about the sentence which was served and fees door, which envisages some reprieve. to those who collaborate with justice. we should hope that the strategy will be further pursued because it enabled us wants to be the cause in us trans thought it prints ok. i think it's unfair, especially for the victims. but unfortunately the use of collaborators to root out mafia is extremely useful. we wouldn't make any progress in combating the mafia without such arrangements. at the same time, i realized that it's not good with them and they don't so much home. and after so many crimes, we now see his release. it is quite disgusting. we close at the moment to the

families of the victims of the mafia. this criminal did horrible things. he killed so many people. and we all want to ask ourselves the question. did he really regret what he did? did he say everything he knows about the massacres that have bloodied cecily when he truth and justice? we asked the say to continue investigating and make this criminal talk a detain, bella. ruth opposition activists has appeared a local tv to accept responsibility for riots that took place in the country. last year, ramon processor, which and his girlfriend were arrested to run 2 weeks ago after mince, grunted a ryan or a flight they were travelling on ortiz dmitri poke asked the story, roman per savish, the former editor of the bella, russian opposition. telegram channel nectar, who was arrested over a week ago in minsk, has suddenly given an interview to a local news channel. now percentage is still being held in detention in mens. but

the news channel was still able to conduct the interview. and in it, per savage proclaims, is false in causing the riots in belarus last summer and much, much more was pretty much. yeah. yeah, but it's important to understand, and i openly admit that i was one of those people who publish called to go out on to the streets on the 9th of august. as soon as i was presented with documents and charge, i immediately pleaded guilty in the organization of must unauthorized protests. indeed, i immediately fully admitted my guilt in this regard, that i realized that the call to action, which are published, resulted in uncontrollable riots on the street. and in fact, lived in chaos. for 3 days, he was on board a ryan air flight heading from athens to villas. that's when bell russian authorities demanded the plane make an emergency landing in minsk, supposedly due to a bomb warning, and subsequently arrested the former opposition activist. now miss claims that it

received the ball morning from ha soldiers and that the presence of savage was a mere coincidence. come off itself has vehemently denied any such claims. in fact, many see this incident as a deliberate political arrest. needless to say, it's cause a huge international outrage, but coming back to the interview, it's sudden publication actually comes is quite a surprise. the interview itself really seems more of a confession. and the things that savage has apologized for admitted to is quite long. some of those things include admitting to agitating crowds with calls to protest, being responsible for the brutal rise and bella roof last summer, and admitting to being part of the as our battalion ends on boss ukraine in 2014. although pretty service should miss that she did not actually take any part in any combat. just one good, special taking into account the fact that i not only allowed myself some old statements, but over violated journalistic ethics and cross or boundaries. moreover, there were many people with this idea ology in my circle,

but i myself did not support this idea. ology. i think it was just probably the biggest mistake of my life. because the one thing i really regret, he also gave up the names of anybody who had a hand in organizing the protests and bella roof last summer. and supposedly revealed who was financing bella ross as opposition and its leader to con oscar. and those supposedly being a lot, be in taxpayers and private sponsors. and he even admitted that calls to sanctions were meant to destroy the bell, a russian economy, and leave bella russian people hungry. and while these admissions do seem quite damning, many are pointing out that the interview did take place in detention. and while this interview was supposedly supposed to make, after more questions about the arrest or the opposition activist himself, really all it seems is done is raised even more questions. well, that takes us to a close for this news our but our programs are only beginning, discover once ahead, an r t, right after the shortest of break season. ah,

oh, look forward to talking to you all. that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given it by human beings, except when the shorter does that conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence. the point obviously is to great truck, rather than fear i would take on various jobs with artificial intelligence. real summoning with a robot must protect its own existence with 3 are segregated all along

my social class. most people though, also covered by 1st if you're born in to a 4 family, you're born into a minority family. if you're born into a family that only has a single parent that really constrains your lives, chances people die on average. the senior job, you born in the generational poverty is a it's a fight every day to meet your needs and the needs of your family. me the.
