7:00 am
the, the, who's the headlines and i'll tell you russia is top level economic forum, and st. petersburg is in top gay with the russian president vladimir, to expect to speak at the event. and just a few minutes to talk more. there is concern, is that before the widespread vaccinations the only way to get the global economy back quickly. guest speakers highlight the hurdles we face as we try to return to normal. it's a shame the politics is limited. the distribution of europe, european commission made a big mistake at the very beginning by considering vaccines as if they were issues of ideology. it has to be bullied. that's that even i don't have to come no economy with advantage in order to bring to gas pipeline is back in the news. this
7:01 am
time with russia is energy minister expressing high hopes of its completion by the end of the year after president biden waving sanctions on the european projects, laboring the times productive. ah, welcome. she's gone at 2 o'clock here in moscow watching international rushes high profile. economic form is in full motion at the moment in st. petersburg, where the russian president, vladimir putin, is expected to speak at any moment. now, of course, we'll go straight to that when it happens. in the meantime, the pandemic obviously and how it's sold to the business environment has been the early focus of many at the event. and the consensus is emerging to that the health of the global economy does depend on a swift return tomorrow. let's say 3 inoculation programs. meanwhile,
7:02 am
the review of russia is putting the vaccine by the world health organization and european medicine's agency is still in limbo, despite dozens of countries worldwide, already authorizing the job, the head of the russian direct investment fund that produces the vaccine says the ball is now when the e m s. court. we just had a very professional review by him, a technical team and, and they have not really raised any, be critical issues. and i think they're doing their work in a very professional, you know, positive manner. i think there are some bureaucrats in you who was saying, we don't need support. nick, we've seen we don't need trash and like seen and we believe it's fundamentally wrong to make like since political time. and again here at the st. petersburg, international economic form. i keep hearing how the pandemic is taken and so on the international economy. but even more often, i keep hearing how much it's important to meet and person to talk about that face
7:03 am
to face, to make sure that the pace of the recovery is good enough. some cannot afford it. well, the organizers of this form thought they could in there you have it, russia, it's throwing the biggest business event. since the peak of the pandemic, i can tell you that the bottom line of those discussions here at the event is that the world won't be able to do without relying on math vaccination. and even though there is this understanding, we do realize that even in europe it's rich countries, there is still shortages of vaccine and all that is happening as the european medical agency is still reluctant to give the green light to rushes, football v. although there are you members state that are absolutely not happy with this kind of approach. italy in particular, which was one of the 1st european union nations which spoke about the production of sport. in particular,
7:04 am
as someone who was very keen to hear about the news for the go ahead for the western jap was one of our guests, the head of the russian italian trade chamber. it's a shame that politics has limited the distribution of sputnik for here. and it's not even a shame for russian business on the phone behind the job. it's a shame for us because we lost pace and leaving the sun damage behind. but the major thing is that you want to delay in accepting the russian vaccine has affected people's lives some dying because they didn't receive a job in time. i see that some states like hungry, for example, if you're able to make their own decisions in this regard, bypassing you policy. speaking of hungary, another a european union nation which isn't happy at all with the approach by brussels, we were talking to the very important minister pets, or c, r t o. and he was also very critical of use intense scrutiny of the russian jap. look, european commissioner made
7:05 am
a big mistake at the very beginning by considering vaccines as if they were issues of ideology or geo politics. and they made, made a mistake regarding the contract as well. because if you look at the united states, united kingdom, israel, they've been using western 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. these thoughts are being echoed by the representatives of the world health organization, which are saying that these issues are very important given that there are places on our planet where the situation is much more difficult than in europe. so they are underlining that bias when it comes to vaccines is absolutely unacceptable. as the regional director in charge of the w tool for europe in region,
7:06 am
that might always have 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 the vaccine production. so health is the young politics. that's very, very, and 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 upon them because no one is safe until everyone is very soon, we are expecting the russian president vladimir putin to weigh in on all the issues as well, plus the head of the austrian government and also the head of guitar. that is coming up very soon and of course, and go straight to it when it does happen. now, among the other major issues being discussed is the know what stream to gas pipeline projects on the sidelines, the forum rushes energy minister has said it was just
7:07 am
a 100 kilometers from the finish line and express type 2. it would be completed by the end of the year that is, despite us sanctions aimed at scuffling the project which president biden has not lifted while the pipeline goes under the baltic sea and will deliver gas from russia directly to the fire germany. we spoke with the chairman of the german economic affairs and energy committee, and he says, a purely business enterprise has been tracked into geo politics. for analysis, i believe no extreme to is a necessity. because in europe, we're in dire need of gas for the foreseeable future. we know that the existing gas pipeline no st. mom certainly doesn't have the same capacity is no extreme to, and therefore, i am very pleased to this new pipeline is ready. i hope will soon be in operation. the u. s. is in the lead of those against this gas pipeline. 50 years ago. they opposed gas applies miss soviet union because they thought we will become dependent
7:08 am
on moscow. but in fact, they only care about selling the liquefied gas. this arguments about dependence on russia is just nonsense, because this dependence is not one sided and is 2 sided. russia also depends on revenues from the gas supplies and exactly the same way as we depend on their gas. and by the way, you know, pins combined gas from other suppliers, only. it is more expensive and more harmful for the environment. like this very liquefied gas from the us, what the us once is on the one hand to promote economic interests in an unfair way . i think sanctions against other states absolutely unacceptable. on the other hand, i feel trying to keep europe in germany, in particular from forming a reasonable relationship with russia. and this is an argument that i do not accept . we recently discussed this in upon the spikes economic committee, and the majority spoke in favor of a partnership with russia. that's a cornerstone for a strong euro. so i am for creating conditions for cooperation with russia and
7:09 am
continuing peaceful coexistence that will help build a solid foundation for this corporation. after the upcoming general federal election power may go to those who are more alienated towards russian interests than the interest of nations. and this is not the best ground for cooperation in this regard. i hope that the election will lead to pearl and being able to improve relations with moscow and develop mutual understanding. okay, well just a reminder that we are expected, the russian president vladimir putin to be speaking at the form in st. petersburg any minute. now these are some live pictures we're looking at from the for and that's the whole where he's going to speak. and of course, as soon as that happens, we'll go straight to it. me. now another news this afternoon, gruesome details have emerged of high bodies donated for medical research and
7:10 am
france are being used. charlotte davinsky has more and i want how corpses are being sold for military experiments and crush tests. it's new or tale that many thought could become any gramma in 2019 to merge that. the bodies that have been donated from medical research had in fact been left to decay in 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 limbs had been sold to private companies for a price. now in the latest finish, to turn it to be confirmed that somebody would sold act of crash test dummies.
7:11 am
these allegations had been made previously, but now there was evidence to show dead bodies were being used in this gruesome way . in the car industry, almost 40 percent of the money owned by the center for body donations came from industry that left the families of those who left their bodies to medical science. shocked and devastated once again. if they could go to pretty fun, we found out who 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 that the doctor 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
7:12 am
a market for bodies. there were so they, we used 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 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 oh me including to observe what happens in a vehicle when it hit a mine is just pick your whole system personal wishes were not taken into account. there were people who and the militarist imagined. their body has now says in a military experiment,
7:13 am
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 describe 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 internet and 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. they can, 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 prongs and government report in due this month is expected to recommend better supervision of the donation of
7:14 am
bodies. but that, of course, will be little consolation for the families who have already given their bodies for medical research, geology, minsky or t, paris. the passengers returning to the u. k. a describing kale surrounding the country's co testing rooms with people paying hundreds of pounds for tests that late ordained to arrive a tool for one case in point. his author, the tv dad, he paid almost 400 pounds for the test when he returned to the u. k from america and according to the rules he needed to test on the 2nd and on the 10th day after his arrival. however, while he was waiting for the results, the testing company was removed from the list of government approved providers and he was forced to repeat the whole process. his wife is now started a campaign to attract attention to the growing problem the government having yeah, actually, you know, said anything about whether that dealing with this,
7:15 am
there's been nothing from grant shops on it. and i just think that something does need to be done to make sure that these private testing providers are held account to actually do what the people are paying them to do it. small companies that have been able to set up as, as contractors, they don't have the capacity to deal with the amount of customer since the huge amount of influx that they had. they will, they don't have the capacity in terms of the laps getting the results back to the one time. obviously that is a big problem where people having massive issues with pcr tests as more people are now traveling since may, the 17th is just getting worse and worse. there's a lot of radio silence on, on this whole issue. and it really does need to be brought to the governments tension more because that they're not really answering to why
7:16 am
things have gone so roman and this has been ongoing. now, since while i've been dealing with this, since the solve may well from the middle of may, the u. k. did cautiously open its borders for foreign travel, but imposed strict restrictions on people's return, including a test before you fly, and then to more impossible quarantine when you're back in the country. plus there is also the option of a 3rd test to which relationship from self isolation on day 5. now much of this does depend of course on where you fly in from and to and to confusion to there are different rules for england, wales in scotland and packed here. the managing director of one testing clinic agrees the system is under enormous pressure. travel is starting to take off more and more people are having tests to fly more more cases of people not getting bad results back on time. i'm not getting that becket delivered on time. people will sell swapping home using the postal services. there is
7:17 am
a chance it will have major issues or cause major issues around again, around capacity in logistics processing. if both from the bar tree and the private providers don't work together to make sure what they're, what they're, what they're promising it deliverable. i think one of the challenges here is the providers are coming out work to make money, which i get not in business, but i don't think that's necessarily the best thing for the consumer intended to building a equitable, efficient private sector testing infrastructure that can meet the needs of customers, particularly when it comes to travel, such still to come over the next few minutes. denmark adults, a controversial or allowing silent seek is to be sent that side b while there application is being process will have a look at the details on that story. yourself ah
7:18 am
7:19 am
going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very political time. time to sit down and talk the welcome back. and denmark has passed a controversial law that would allow it to send asylum seekers, the countryside side, the european union, while other applications are being processed. something though, that has sparked condemnation from the block. we shall be confirmed by the un high commissioner for refugees. the whole thing with fine pain rated under member questions about both the access to the procedures and effective access to protection. it is not possible under existing e rules. well, the new danish immigration bail is aimed at reducing the number of migrants in the
7:20 am
country. it's now externalizing the asylum procedure to discourage new comes from ever setting foot in the country than it was supposed to 3 parliament by 70 votes to $24.00 in favor. supposed person for the social democratic party in denmark said that he wanted to move to send a message to asylum seekers that they are not welcome the migrants coming from different places in africa, middle eastern countries, they will probably start seeking our buying class item. and then they know that they will be sent out of europe again. now the new legislation has come hammered. rising pressure on copenhagen after its trip to harmful the syrian refugees of that residency on the grounds that the syrian capital damascus and the surrounding region is now considered to be safe. denmark has become the 1st european country to take such a provocative step that contradicts the attempts to fix the broken asylum rules. the decision immediately ignited. i rage among refugees and human rights groups
7:21 am
which lead to protests that hit the country. in late may minority bryce consultant lee spoke to says he is not surprised that the law, as the current government has never hidden its views on immigration. this garment came to power on empty minority in the election, especially this call is very much against people from middle east, especially the machine background, you know, so they don't want them to come this when the syrians came. now they want to kick them out. also they are trying to, to make laws where they can send people back to see the problem is that this government, 1st of them are getting government knows that it is impractical and not received. and they don't want to leave this away because if they did, they could just side by the far right parties. ny where's the beef was
7:22 am
almost sorry on the lips of america after a cyber attack waylaid the world's largest, meet packer j. b. s. plants were fully operational on thursday, but not before the f. b. i. i blamed a russian speaking hacker spend, swan says the instant does once again is straight. the said, the narrative that moscow is responsible for all cyber espionage. there definitely has to be some kind of clarity put here because the problem is when, whenever you have media talking about these issues and you have politicians talking about these issues, they love to conflate russia as, as a nation state with russian actors also with russian speakers i mean, that's the most recent one. this is so incredible about the j b. s. situation is that j b s originally said that they had confirmed these were russian hackers who had done this well. now if you look at the terminology that's being used, they're actually saying russian speaking, that can mean a whole lot of things and but, but it conflicts, right?
7:23 am
it comes back to this idea of, oh, is russia doing this? is right here uprooting pulling the strings. he actually hacking g b. s, or is it someone who is either russia nationality or even russian speaking? well, i mean there are ethnically chinese people who can speak absolutely. russian. i think a lot of people in ukraine who configuration as well. i think i know some are things that speak russia, so i'm just saying americans, perhaps yes, maybe just perhaps now a question was posed to the president in connection to the j. b. a ransomware attack about whether or not he believes that prudent himself was, was testing and testing president violent. what do you make of that theory? is there any, any there's, there's no gravity to that. there's no reason to think that that's the case at all, but it fits perfectly into a media narrative, right? because the question is kind of thrown out at the end. do you think putin as testing? oh, is this a softball? you're saying?
7:24 am
well, it's as he was walking out of the room, right. so he's walking out of the room and the reporter. yes. how do you think it's testing you and, and president in turns back and kind of smirks and says like, he wouldn't test me. but the thing is just, it's all this, it's all the show right, show of, of, i'm tough and he's trying to get to me when there's been no evidence whatsoever that the, the colonial pipeline attack, it was done by a group called the dark side, right. which is people who aren't even in russia, that we know what they're just in former soviet countries and a russian speaking j b. s. in that situation, it's not necessarily coming out of russia by this group that they call. okay. we just interrupted that report that because the platinum is for the patient is nice speaking at the forum, instant paint, which i would like to welcome all the participants and guests about picture of the 24th st. petersburg, international economic forum. just a moment. i need to solve this out was my is if you just, you are
7:25 am
a well aware almost in, from the very beginning of last year due to the grown of ours and damage meetings in many traditional form. i have been either counselor or held online and we're glad that after we lose how long break we've all had to take russia one hosting the 1st big international business and for the global business community, a chance to talk to one another. sure, so i mean it's not just where the help of more than telecommunication technologists, but also and the flash drives a live conversation as a school. we've done our best to ensure the safety of our participants and compliance for the strictest sanitary rule is. but i'd like to lead to the very fact we're holding such a representative for them as a very positive side. another testimony to the fact that the partnership that you
7:26 am
might contact of entrepreneurs invest as an expert gradually getting them back to normal. thank you. you may have been dancing, positive, transit love, but something we're also witnessing in the global economy despite the magnitude of last us down to and which experts estimate to have been the biggest one since world war 2. 1 can safely say that the world economy is getting back to normal as global g d p growth as projected to be as high as since the 970 unusual as well. and i guess i would say that it's going to be at around 6 percent or so there's a large extent due to the large scale extra ordinary decisions and measures adopted by the economic authority just close to. well, the practice has shown us that traditional monetary policy measures would have been
7:27 am
insufficient to overcome the current crisis and key ro, an rapids economic recovery is a new age by futile lisco policy. second unified and for the 1st time and the central banks of developing countries have fought reactively such cisco policy is of course legion economies have more resources and tools to stimulate business activities. they figured telling please in the last year developed countries you can increase their budget deficits by the around 10 percent of g d, p on average. whereas is developing countries only managing to increase their deficits by around 5 percent. and we know that thanks to the deficit, anti crisis measures being funded and it's very good that there are such and crisis measures and they are being funded. this is
7:28 am
a positive negative sides to that to. we see that the economic recovery is on because different countries have differ capabilities and this can result in greater imbalances and greater gap and believe in standards, both within countries and among them. and of course, it brings about serious political, economic and social because it's all the development of it into connected well and for i was share security and i spoke about that back in january of the devil. so we can all make for the fire against the pandemic. is italian examples until we have ensured a wide and universal access to vaccines across all continental, the set of the pandemic of new outbreaks will be with us. and pockets of infections can persist and they will pay a set to all of our planet. what are we seeing now, however, the i m f,
7:29 am
estimates the high income countries that account for 16 percent of the world's population now account for around 50 percent of all gone of artifacts in that manufactured currently. so that means that around 10 percent of the planted and have fully vaccinated or job. and whereas you, hundreds of millions of people were still, we just simply have no access to vaccine. like as late as countries either have no technologies or production capacity or funds to procure vaccines. and so far, those who could help them with providing little to no age, which can be, as we say in russia fast you, we care about your own. well being woman, and this is what we see. and this particular case of the fight against the pandemic . so either the, it's no significant assistance. this isn't,
7:30 am
has to be there. or sometimes we see that is absolutely upset, politically motivated restrictions on the acquisition of vaccines that i've proven that we would love reliability and efficiency. i mean, current conditions that lives as if it were the unwillingness to protect one's own citizens from the fat. russia, as you know, makes its own contribution to the fight against corona vars with god for vaccines developed domestically. and the accomplishments of our scientists have achieved why recondition across the world has already been registered in 6 to see 6 countries that are home to more than 3w2cw people. i'd like to highlight that we've not just used our unique technologies. we've not just created capabilities for manufacturing vaccines and russia. we're also helping our country is to develop their own production capacity is home is going to need and i would like to say for
