me ah, pressure flagship, a business event, the st. petersburg international economic form is in full swing. we will take you through the latest deals and discussions from the countries. northern capital stocking evidence emerges in france regarding bodies donated for scientific research. many were then sold for use and military experiments and crush tests and sicilians of voice, their anger after a mafia don jumped. the people slayer walks free decades after killing more than $100.00 people, including one young victim who was gruesomely strangled and then dissolved an acid . we speak it to the widow of a police officer he murdered. the thing that infuriated 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 ruined my family. you ruined the whole sicily. ah
8:01 pm
. what accounts you have direct studios in moscow? this is rti international. sean thomas, certainly glad to have you with us. st. petersburg is the epicenter of global business, movers and shakers. this week, the city's international economic forum has now wrapped up its 1st full day with an array of high level guests taking part on thursday. no surprise that the pandemic and how it's altered the business environment was the early focus of many at the event. and a consensus is emerging that the health of the global economy depends on the switch returned to normality through inoculation programs. but some also worry about health care being politicized hungry is top to that gave us his view on the use month long scrutiny of rushes, putting the vaccine. you don't get a commission made a big mistake at the very beginning by considering vaccines as if they were issues
8:02 pm
of ideology or geo politics. and they made made a mistake regarding the, the contract as well. because if you look at the united states, the united kingdom, israel, they've been using best on vaccines as well, but they receive much more at the beginning, they were able to, to start their vaccination campaign watch was much more quickly compared to the european union. so there was a big mistake because timing, timing was very bad. so that's why our experts have come to russia and i have gone to china as well. so after a very farro and very long procedure, they have given the emergency use authorization. so it's not that we would have started to use your or the chinese vaccine in a blind the way it was not the case. there was a very viral procedure to look into it, which was the 1st term vaccine we signed contracts about and the russian. 3 direct
8:03 pm
investment fund has already completed the deliveries together. 2000000 jobs have arrived. they are basically completely vaccinated and delivery from sport and us a lot to be on the top of the european leak in this regard and to be able to open up . so i'm very happy to see here, so many people, i'm happy to see your life coming back to russia. and if you come to hungary, you'll see that this is basically a similar situation in the back in hungary. another major talking point from the event was russia announcement that it will completely remove dollar assets from its vast national wealth fund, breaking down the significance of that. here's our per tranquil while. this does appear to be a major landmark in 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 the us dollars. so the national wealth fund,
8:04 pm
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 in st. petersburg in a little earlier in the afternoon,
8:05 pm
as the russian president spokesperson dmitri past golf also way did on the international context of the decision. i didn't see the, the, the, the organization process is constant. it has now become obvious. and this process of d dollars ation is 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 decides 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,
8:06 pm
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 be seeing the dollar is something that could really be a cause for concern in america. this trend towards diversification is a global em 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 dollarization 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 currencies, 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 currency them accordingly. and there is demand,
8:07 pm
there is going to be supply, i think we'll see more reserve currency further down the road. are going to be more alternatives. i think the goals will continue to play a significant role and probably in the increasing role in the reserves that that countries will have in the coming years. we also spoke to russia's foreign ministry spokeswoman about a range of topics including moscow, washington relations. we've already done, 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 points of disagreement and it's ok where different countries our history is different. but we also have different approaches, so it's various issues, foreign and bilateral. not money, 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 those issues, we've been stressing this all the time. we see how rushing us relations have been
8:08 pm
degrading recently. and washington has done it in different ways, including some vulgar ones, just because many times russian diplomats have been ground isley expelled from the united states in recent years. and how many times in the states has made up so called solidarity reasons. the force made a member states to expel our diplomats a chain of hostile steps, led to us issuing a list of some 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 actually fall interview with murray as a honda is available now on our team youtube channel. so a busy day at the forum which runs through the weekend in st. petersburg and will make sure you don't miss a thing right here. on arching international. the gruesome details have emerged of how bodies donated for medical research in france are being used or to try to pinsky has more now on corpses being sold for military
8:09 pm
experiments and crush tests. it's new or tale that many thought could become any grimma in 20. 19 to merge that the bodies that had been donated for medical research had in fact been left to decay and unsanitary conditions here. and what was the center for body donations that the former perez dick university described as being nude decomposing with maggots in a room infested with wraps 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 were told to act as crash test dummies. these allegations had been made previously, but now there was evidence to show dead bodies were being used in this way. in the
8:10 pm
car industry, almost 40 percent of the money and 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 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. the 1st thing, but the 2nd thing is that there is a market for bodies. there was so they, we used it is an abomination. and the people who did that must explain themselves.
8:11 pm
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 with phase the problem of shock trauma among subjects who are very overweight, we are forced to use a corpse acquired 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 years for these for tests. so today, the french omi, including to observe what happens in a vehicle when it hit a mine. pick your whole system personal wishes were not taken into account. there were people who are anti 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
8:12 pm
a body, you describe a family of a funeral, someone who donates that body. it's still the most beautiful gesture of humanity. it's like a personal thing. i give my body for the intent on the medical students to practice on. i'm become good doctors in the future to realize that these bodies using a tank explosion, for example, and understand what damage the explosion made for the body. it's just horrible. there has been closed since the revelations emerged 2 years ago. the university apologized at the time for families of donors, but the scandal could provoke big changes. hearing problems and government report in due this month is expected to recommend better supervision of the donation of bodies. but that, of course, will be little consolation for the families who have already given their bodies for
8:13 pm
medical research, geology been sky r t, paris. the code with 1900 conspiracy has been upgraded to a fringe theory by a leading us newspaper. washington post has changed its take on republican claims. the virus began and a chinese lab with the white house suggesting that may have actually been the case of pullback comes after. president biden launched a probe into the possibility that the pandemic did begin in the will. hon institute of iraq. g post has also now diluted the phrase the bunk by scientists to dispute it in a report originally published last year. and mainstream media across the board are now scrambling to make some pretty embarrassing you trends. you don't need to involve conspiracy theories, president trump and secretary of state mike, palm pale, link the virus to a lab, and whoo hon. without providing evidence, some things may be true. even if donald trump said them, i think
8:14 pm
a lot of people have egg on their face. i think a lot of people on the political left and a lot of people in the media made this mistake. wow. as tom cotton is saying, something it can't be true where they assumed that and that's not right. and it seems like a lot of people, including a lot of people in the media, leapt to dismiss the lab league theory. because of where are we coming from? and the reality is, we don't yet know how coven started. we spoke to political satirist, wrong, plato, and he says, the incident exposes just how much corporate media self sensors. just the practice of issuing corrections is, is a good thing. i mean that just in, in of itself is not bad. be at the washington poster or any other outlet. i think the problem goes a little deeper than that. the problem is not necessarily correcting errors. the problem is, well, how did these errors happen in the 1st place in the corporate media, in the united states and other parts of the world? the range of acceptable conversation is very limited. and it's not
8:15 pm
all too often, at least it's not limited based on what is objectively true. it's limited based on what is permissible. and that often leads to a lot of this information an awful lot, especially when it comes to issues of the climate. when it comes to issues of warm peace, you know, this is just a nother example of the corporate media really limits the range of acceptable conversation for various reasons. and it leads to misinformation in this information all too often and it's a systemic problem. there is outrage in italy after a mafia boss known as the people slayer, was freed from prison. this week. giovanni bruce guy had been convicted of overseeing more than 100 murders, but has now been released on parole. among those killed was an 11 year old boy whose body was then dissolved in acid, also on bruce because record was one of the state's most infamous murders,
8:16 pm
the assassination of top mafia, investigator, giovanni for con, in 1992 falcons, carr was blown up killing him, his wife and 3 policemen. we spoke to the partner of one of the officers about the mafia don's release. hey, normally metal. he's now a free man and 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 still do not know the truth. so why he no free, we have never sought revenge. we have always asked for justice. today, it is clear that justice is no exist. who would like to stay to be alongside us to be more tangible and imposed sudden 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 streets because he did not just ruined my
8:17 pm
family. he ruined the whole sicily. after his arrest, bruce got turned in form, which led to a short and determine prison is how people in sicily reacted to the news that he should turn this on. 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 enough trans prince. ok. i think it's on 1st 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 coming down so much home. and after so many crimes, we now see his release. it is quite disgusting. were close at the moment to the families of the victims of the mafia. this criminal did horrible things. he killed
8:18 pm
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 bloody sicily? when he truth and justice, we ask the say to continue investigating and make this criminal talk google says sorry, but refuses to fire its diversity chief for an anti semitic post mine that after short break, this is our to international i ah, ah, i me
8:19 pm
ah ah, i use quoted mechanics work so well people don't like to use the word inconsistency. they like to say, oh it's, it's amazing and comprehensible. mysterious. when i say it can't be quite right. and this is what direct says, this is what i was reading. oh, well come back, this is our t international. now. tech giant google has refused to fire its head of diversity
8:20 pm
after public outrage over an anti semitic blog post. if lower, ju, i would be concerned about my insatiable appetite for war and killing in defense of myself. self defense don't outwardly an instinct, but i would be afraid of my increasing insensitivity to the suffering of others. that if i were a jew post was written in 2007 before he joined the company. after being brought now to public attention, google removed him at the head of diversity but did not fire him an apology for the quote deep offence and pain that the message caused was given by the firm as well. we spoke to the head of the pro israel group stand with us. i think mister bob has the right to repudiate his previous statements. in my mind, of course, he should do that. everybody has the right to free speech by the way people have the right to and she submitted speech it, but it doesn't mean that a company like google needs to be hiring somebody with these opinions who has
8:21 pm
expressed them and published them. i believe that there's a lot of talk about inclusion and ty varsity all across the industry by june seem to get left out of that equation. and in order to make sure that we are acting against anti semitism and racism, and other forms of prejudice with equal measure, we need to have an educational process so that people understand what anti semitism is tech companies as much as anyone else need to redouble their efforts to support that jewish employees and to act against acts of anti semitism and to do their best to find them and to, to get them and speak out against them as we all should do. almost meaningless. that is how campaigners have described a new you tax transparency law. it's an attempt to buy brussels to fight tax avoidance by big multinational companies. lawmakers say it targets large corporations with an annual income of more than $750000000.00 euro from 2023
8:22 pm
corporations must publish tax details online, including profits and the number of employees. however, it focuses on goings on within member states and will leave out most operations in the rest of the world. that's why some non governmental organizations, including oxfam, say it is essentially a band aid on a gaping wound. we are disappointed about g g outcome. this new legislation on public country by country reporting is not real public by country reporting. why? because he doesn't calder for the country or the ration of the com finance that i present you. and in addition to that, adding these kind of information for only a limited number of countries would give her ever really need me to feature of the structure of a company. and this can even be misleading for her research for purposes,
8:23 pm
but also for, for the mess source to know if really a company is responsible or not. research has shown that in some cases, 80 percent of profits are moved around the block to so called you tax havens like ireland, luxembourg and the netherlands oxfam again says that the law can be easily circumvented . it's a very limited tool, so it will be useful to add more transparency on you talk save, and that at the same time corporation could be you've been incent, wife to sheets for all fits to tech steven outside be you where they don't have to report information so this is actually not a solution for her global sex avoidance of corporation. the pentagon has apologized for accidentally storming
8:24 pm
a factory and terrifying staff in bulgaria. the owner of the business though, has said simply saying, sorry, isn't going to cut it. he is planning to sue the u. s. defense department. during drills at an air field, american troops rated a nearby sunflower oil plant, jabbing their rifles at staff, and emptying the building. the bulgarian presidents condemned to the incident and the head of the plant described their terror during the raid 7 soldiers entered, aiming their width and the workers. we can show the work, raising his hands. they said in english to sit down because my people obey them very scared, they went everywhere on private property. in short, this is an illegal invasion of private property that is absolutely unacceptable in every way. words cannot express its hoover in the back and work in others told me the soldier center. i saw them with machine guns aimed at us with our various trespass. i started running,
8:25 pm
i did not know what i was doing and what i was saying. political analyst, chris danbury told us the very fact the drills are happening near civilians is an accident waiting to happen. well, i'd be surprised that they are taking actions. april choice is usually, you know, the countries are ported over the wind, which are quite more on and he lines those big play in britain, which population removed from back to the races. i find a strange thing, bulgaria, they are using an area with our places. there are 3000000 population. the girls failure intelligence. thought this is a complete failure to record over the area which is fairly limited appeal. so it's not huge big, but it's not huge. and clearly indicate that the limit of that disused field
8:26 pm
and beyond that, that could be hoses phones, factories and so on. and you do not go there, but they don't seem to have done that. and the other question is, why are they involved in bulgaria? 34 minutes, that's what i'll be back with. another phone 1st location here. this is our international stay with us. ah, ah ah, ah.
8:27 pm
