ah, the ah, the us media lush is joe biden, following, they didn't even saying he gave love them or what he wanted made america look weak of the russian leader to very different by the is a professional. and you've got to be very careful with him in order not to miss anything. he doesn't miss anything. i can assure you. the 1st of us russia, so much of the biden presidency delivered, mixed results with both sides, pointing to deep bone resolved issues, but also agreeing to reinstate their boss. also added the program, a region of central italy wants to give the green light to tourists who have

received rushes. sputnik v shots up this plant, a lack of approval so far from the european medicines agency, regional counselor, spoke to our team will know sputnik works. and therefore, just because of the configuration of the european union policy towards the russian federation. ah, wherever you're accounting the program from today. welcome to moscow onto the news our in our t. i'm unit number 2 described his summit in geneva with joe biden of constructive on without hostility. while his u. s. concert park called it pulse of that. it was their 1st face to face meeting as presidents. the talks lasted 3 and a half hours. the who's

list might that generally positive tone from both presidents, the american media, they're not happy. in the past 24 hours, there's been an ide pouring of negative coverage, keeping joe biden of not being tough enough. ortiz kill up, and there's more in the while in the lead up to the summit, we saw how american media was basically playing up the question, would joe biden be tough enough on russian president vladimir putin? it was all about how tough he would be. they didn't seem really concerned about the arms treaties about the diplomatic deadlock being broken. it was about will joe biden be tough enough on vladimir putin? and now in the aftermath of this meeting, it appears that they are not satisfied with jo biden's performance. they consider him to have not done a very good job at this point that we've got headlines and we've got articles and

press reactions saying that basically was given the world stage that he craved. he is accused at one point, joe biden is accused of saying they, they say that he quote, gave a gift to a killer. and at one point, he's been accused of being tougher on a cnn journalist than he was on the russian president. now at this point we have the hill that has been particularly hard on joe biden saying that that basically he lost a putin simply by showing up. now there was another article on the hill that marked joe biden's inability to speak before the press without a teleprompter. and said that it was embarrassing for him to look down at his notes every so often. and this is something that it appears fox news, which tends to lean conservative, cnn that tends to be more liberal. they seem to both agree on this. they're both harshly critical of joe biden, in the aftermath of the summit. take a listen. it's obviously a test and president might fail. this is

a guy who prides himself on president putin's on wrestling bears riding tigers. last sewing the moon. i mean he's, he's got this image that's bigger than now and he wants that and that, and prism fund help perpetuate some of that today. it was bad, but i don't see that bite and got anything from putting so they just gave great advantage to mr. newton calling a great power, a worthy adversary, right. and tom, all of those flattery words to get him to respect those role to summit really in terms of whether it gets resolved as a gamble for joe biden. he doesn't know it, his gamble of actually inviting the summit is going to pay off. it's important to note that, you know, while we can't really tell what happened at the face to face meeting between biden and food and that was in the villa behind closed doors. in the press, there's afterwards, it was pretty clear that the biden was not afraid to bring up some rather prickly issues that were discussed. dan, afterwards, it became very clear that while the tone was respectful, it was

a tense conversation. at some point now, russian president vladimir putin himself has warned against the notion that somehow biden is weak or incapable russian president vladimir putin just doesn't see it that, that way. this is what he said was meant for sure. you know, i'd like to say that the image of president biden, which the pressing russia and even in america is drawing, has nothing to do with reality. he's been on a long journey flying across the atlantic. so we're talking about jet like here. you know, when i fly, it throws me off balance a little, and yet he looked alert. i talked to him face to face for 2 hours, or maybe a little more than that. he's completely in the loop. he did look into his notes from time to time, but we'll do that. and that image that is being drawn by the media kind of low, you in. so a full sense of security. but there's no reason for that whatsoever. because button is a professional and you've got to be very careful with him in order not to miss anything . he doesn't miss anything,

i can assure you. so it's long been said that american media thrives on controversy and conflict and what we seem to be looking at an american media is widespread disappointment that they did not get the conflict and controversy that they were looking for. the wife rejected the criticisms of biden's performance of the summits. national security advisor james sullivan stated the u. s. leader took on putting on a range of issues his news conference engine. even the russian president was also challenged by international journalists. did you commit to stopping your crank down against the opposition groups inside russia led by election of electing of on him why? why are young people not allowed to protest in russia with the but way press core does as i pointed out, they never challenge a u. s, leader from the left. so they'll never ask him about julian his sons. they will

only ask about navarro, ne and a this. bloomberg white house reporter jennifer jacobs. both on twitter about she heckling, putin and fantasize is about bite and smiling at her which says everything you need to know about these dinar golfers. they're not holding power to account in their own capital. their heckling the designated enemies of america and hoping to get the approval of their president. well, the mentality of these journalists is the mentality of the east coast establishment . and they operate from a place of american exceptionalism and american innocence. they cannot fathom that the u. s. could possibly be literally paying opposition, figures, managing opposition, figures. and so when these reporters were badgering couldn't about no volunteer. they were unable to accept his response, which was that we don't want to see something like what you saw on january 6 with the movement of insurrection just. well, here's the main takeaways from the summit of biden and putting agreed to whole

consultations on strategic stability and nuclear arms control. they also discussed the possible prisoner exchange and agreed to return the respective ambassadors to their posts. there was no breakthrough on cybersecurity, though they agreed to start regular consultations on the issue for stumbling blocks . the 2 presidents raised concerns about human rights in the other's country. they also failed to come up with a concrete action plan for you. crane ortiz broadcast the was up the russian leaders, media conference after the meeting among the difficult questions that vladimir putin face, that which joe barton had the good fortune to escape. what questions about the opposition? so that we have pointed out the, the protesters that the rest of following the events in capitol hill that they faced as much as 25 years in jail for the 5 years in jail, for

a political protest that the, the 2 buttons said that there's new comparison to because they're criminal, but alexis, the bony, who was convicted in serving a 2 year sentence for the violation of his early early release. so he was convicted by russian court and vladimir putin. he says that, you know, americans are comparing what happened on capitol hill to the treatment of election yvonne and saying there's nothing in common before the nation. you just, you'll never regarding on non systemic opposition and the citizen you've mentioned this person knew full well that he was violating russian law. and he knew full well, but there was a warrant for his arrest. nevertheless, he came back to russia and he deliberately wanted to be arrested. so he did what he wanted to do. what else can we say hill? one of the things both leaders agreed on is to borrow job buttons, words. they need to be rules of the world. so that as

a rule to how both countries should behave in case they come into this agreement over something with a dispute. you know, our rights conflict, how to resolve them as a civilized partners. i would say fred, the far too early, but they need a framework of how to behave. and so that to happen, those countries need to be held equally accountable. it wouldn't do a fun country gets away with doing something and the other doesn't feel bad and said the phrase, the who's quite disturb online. and he said, how would the united states feel if it was she'd by the rest of the world as meddling in for an election? which much of the world she's the united states as do it. but in this rate, that was us. russia is accused of being unpredictable by the what. how is russia planning to change? here? vladimir putin smart, you know, that when she 3rd strike, he's given us new police. you said the west leave. russian foreign policy is

unpredictable. well, let me send the park back to you, the u. s. leaving the abm treaty in 2002 with absolutely unpredictable. what were they doing it for that undermine the basis of international stability in the area of strategic security. then withdrew from the i n f treaty in 20. 19, there's nothing stable about that. the open sky treaty withdrawal, there's nothing stable about it and almost nothing left. thank god, in the field. the strategic stability, mr. biden have taken a completely adequate decision to prolong the new start treaty for 5 years. if you take the situation with ukraine with crimea, that's where this all starts, right? what's stable about? inducing the coup d'etat. when the ex president, the coven, agreed to all the demands of the opposition, he was basically ready to abandon power, declared new elections in about 3 months. no. the blood filled qu with needed that lead to known consequences, the southeast of the country,

then crimea. and you think it's also predictably, no, i don't think so. at the end of the day, what happened here in geneva, decent summit was basically a trust building exercise. very few specifics with agreed upon if any. they agreed to talk about many things to work on. many things, but ultimately it is a trust exercise is about laying a foundation on which russia the united states can rebuild relations. i wouldn't say build on relations because there aren't much left to speak of there, there in taxes, whether it worked. joe biden says, we'll find out within the year whether looks he results from the, from all the top, from all the agreement and the criticism that both sides had for each other. but the message is, the preliminary. it was successful. will always lots of interest in the leaders interaction their body language, etc. summit. so we asked an expert for his view on this one.

the new building on the country meeting was very constructive. there wasn't any, any strident action taken our views before, or many issues or we disagreed. i disagree, stated where it was, where he disagreed, he stated, but i believe both sides have shown a willingness to understand each other, but it was not done in a hyperbolic atmosphere. i have no illusions following the meeting, neither old nor new. there can't be any illusions at all. you can decide what time are you going to? where are your advisors can tell you where at the time that's going to be a message. but if you can't hide the a grimace,

you can't hide an expression on your face. you can try sometime back when, when putin and donald trump met. that was very interesting. in that donald trump was the unseasoned politician. so he was much more fun to read because at that stage was early on in his presidency. he wasn't a will not that he became very refined, but he was a lot less refined then that he even became. and you could see a lot more going on there and a contrast between the 2 feet and who's he's been around a long time and very see them in this regard. you could see the contrast here. both are very, very well trained in this regard. biden's been around from before god probably add that you know, and he knows the stuff he might not be doing very well. i think on the international stage that he does know it is harder to read and we've got to look at those keys a lot a lot more closely. and ah,

ah, another story bring you today. the mirror of moscow was voiced his alarm over dramatic spike in coven infections, here in the russian capital, surrogate of yemen. things daily cases have risen threefold in just a number of days on these urging people to get vaccinated. or correspondent. dimitri pope takes up the story. russian authorities are indeed in a tough spot right now. corona virus cases in russia and moscow specifically are once again rising and reaching levels, recorded back in february. now, among the reasons behind the spike, according to authorities, might be new strains of corona virus. and specifically the new delta variant which originated in india being singled out as one of the most dangerous and the last 2

weeks. but however, the food vaccine, which is one of the more popular vaccines distributed in russia, has been shown to be quite effective against this delta strain. but despite that cases are rapidly growing. and in response to this growth, moscow mayor seduce a band and announced last week that this whole week would be an extended holiday under the condition that stores restaurants, other public venues would close after 11 pm. and that employers in the service industry would ensure that 60 percent of their workers were vaccinated. however, despite these measures, cases continued to grow. and according to their case, and it's expected to get worse. so most of the coven situation in moscow is steadily worsening. in a matter of days, the could be 19 infection rate among moscow residence has risen from 3000 new cases a day to 7000. and according to preliminary data,

that big will exceed 9000 tomorrow. this of course is a steep increase that we did not see even during the previous outbreaks. government officials are now considering reactive measures to try and quell this spike in cases one of those being that companies in the service industry. taxis, restaurants could now be allowed to have their workers who refuse vaccination, be suspended, and left without pay. the restaurants themselves are now considering creating separate zones for, for who have received vaccination. but obviously these measures are nowhere as strict as the ones we saw last here. however, people are still concerned, especially with the rise in cases and the new coven strain that there might be another lockdown in the capital. however, city officials have neither confirmed nor denied another lockdown, but have suggested that new stricter measures would be introduced for a limited time. illegal migrants, again fled to tell you,

islands and local officials again urged you to help, but it is brussels listening more not to the break. ah, ah, ah, with me ah ah, i

use join me every 1st a on the alex simon show. and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport. business. i'm show business. i'll see you then me the moon. ah, a log in a region of central italy wants to allow tours to receive the russian sputnik. the cobra shot to visit the marquis province is urging the government to open up the entire country to such travelers. we heard from a local counselor who came up with the initiative from

a shop. everyone knows the effectiveness of scrutiny on neighbor san marino who is vaccinated, whispered nick, but we are not even supposed to allow citizens of san marino to into italy. now our region intends to open up to continue welcoming russians and we want to maintain relations with russia. we are friends with russia, and we want to continue business in the tourism sector, russian citizens and tourists, even if the vaccinated cannot come to italy. and this is cause tremendous economic loss because italy attracts the loss of russian tourists each year. well, it comes a week after the european parliament gave final approval to the new digital certificate scheme for coven. one thing, it includes data on p. c. r tests, bodies, vaccination, but only with shelter proved by the european medicines agency. so far the regulator has approved for vaccines. those don't include russian chinese or indian jobs. g. komarovsky, again, sees it's become

a highly politicized issue. much you show no day in my opinion. this decision is caused by political reasons and rough phobia. these are not medical reasons because the only student works and therefore it is probably a continuation of european union's policy towards the russian federation. i have absolutely no fear that we are protecting the interests of mar, k, e to often protects interests. the conflict with the interests of your appearance. this isn't a european citizens, but we are primarily residents of them are k. so we serve our interests, especially in such absurd situations. like the one we're talking about online for you right now, a petition has been launched this stop. amazon ceo jeff pays us from returning to earth. 12000 people have signed it. they may not phase or is in fact lex luther or the villain from the superman series and know that he's going on a test flight into space next month. they don't want them,

but you can read about other stories on our website, r t dot com some more news that from italy where there's been a dramatic influx of migrants on the island of lump ado, sir, on choose the alone more than 700 people made the crossing from north africa in small boats, the local mercy, the situations out of control. one of those things that have been many migrant arrivals on our island. more than 1300 people. while our center has a max capacity of 250. in the next few hours, some $200.00 migrants should be moved to the quarantine ship. the situation is evolving. if something goes wrong, things might get dangerous because locals are very unhappy. the tourist season has just started. this island relies on tourism and if the health situation deteriorates, even just among the migrants, things could get serious for us. the real problem is that the migrant crisis is not being addressed by the politicians. so many criminals,

such as smugglers take advantage of it. they help them cross the mediterranean for money and put their lives in danger. there's a significant spike and new commerce for lump a do. so we're refugee shelters only have capacity for some 250 people. so far this year bring that in contrast, more than $16000.00 migrants have made the courses with like 3 times the total of 2020 salvatore marcelo again accuses the feeling. tell me your opinion is doing absolutely nothing about economic migrants. europe talks about refugees, but economic migrants arrival and producer and italy. and for this class of migrants, the use doing absolutely nothing. it's not helping us at all. solving should do more, fewer slogans and more action. you should make these proposals in parliament, not in the newspapers. it's easy to talk and do nothing. this is just propaganda.

there are no concrete facts solving talks and can do anything else. uni speaks in the newspapers should do more from a political point of view. 30 german soldiers have been recall from duty and the few in, you know, for allocations of anti semitic and disorderly behavior. the german defense minister said they'll be severely punished. the misconduct of from soldiers english linea slept in the face to all his serve. the german armed forces and hold the security of our country. this ag damaged the reputation of the armed forces and of the nation. they will be punished with force severity. back in april, the troops were reportedly caught making racist remarks and singing happy birthday to hitler. according to german media, one soldier was also filmed attempting to sexually assault another cases of misconduct by nato soldiers are not unusual. earlier this month, 6 british service men were kicked off

a train in the stony for drunken behavior. well, medical analysts, chris bummed bri things. nato troops stationed in eastern europe often act like heavy drinking tourists. their presence in the region can do more harm than good. hey, much too much time and i think the other reason as well that with too much of eastern europe has become a place where britain brits germans, america is going to get drunk, you know, and these are booth we can. so i think the reason why the presence of chief alcohol is that a factor in that? i mean, i know the brits don't hold the drink very, very well when they're abroad. so you know, the instant you report to the british soldiers on a train to a boozy when the train on and then wrapped in this way. i think the presence of western troops in these areas, under constant military exercises, we seem to go on in the baltic states along russia's boards and talk in as well.

all of that is provocative and the time when we surely given today's top to bottom pieces jewel by the end, geneva, we should be building and getting more based on rather than confrontation on 26 am . here in moscow, more great programs get going after the shortest of brick stick, close to see what's being served up in mere moments by for ah, in the these are the for people who pulled the trigger. i survive something on survival. one of the hardest things that i had, the face was not having a face at a low patient life. i accepted the accept the fact that i made that appointment. we
