lateesha that hallmark is we can't trust the police, we can't trust the government. we can't trust anyone except ourselves to protect ourselves in the us. food and drug administration fight st. freedom of information requests in court asking it be given 55 years to fully release wood active documents relating to the approval of filing. as coven luncheon vaccine, a u. s. court slammed his door shut through a u. s. t. v station after one of our journalists was caught allegedly stalking of bus one of zeroes in the high profile case of kyle, written out. well, if they don't want to cooperate with us, fine, they don't have to. it isn't something we want anyway. but i mean, protein takes a swipe at the military activities of washington and nato, and a fiery foreign policy speech. ah,
3:01 pm
learn from oscar, just go to 11 pm, you in the russian capital you once you wanted to national was me, daniel hawkins. wherever you are. welcome to the program. over half a century, that's how long america's drugs watch dog wants to sit on redacted documents. on far as cobra vaccine, they relate to the jobs approval by the f t i and have been requested by a group of medics on the freedom of information. the sta though, is resisting kellum open has this report. we have a situation here where because there has been a freedom of information act request filed for the information about how the vaccines were approved. we have the us food and drug administration stepping forward and proposing to release $500.00 pages per month of the remaining $329000.00 pages. that would take roughly 55 years 55
3:02 pm
years for this information to be made available. now the organization that filed the, the request of public health and medical professionals for transparency. they say that's ridiculous. they also pointed out that it took the f d a 4 months to approve the vaccine based on the same number of pages. this is what they said, this 100 a day period is the same amount of time. it took the f d a to review the responsive documents for the far more intricate task of licensing phases, cobra, 1900 vaccine. it is difficult to imagine a greater need for transparency than immediate disclosure of the documents relied upon by the f d. a to license a product that is now being mandated over 100000000 americans. now at this point, the organization says that if that pace of $500.00 pages per month proceed, that makes the freedom of information act almost meaningless. and it discredits the food and drug administration's promise to be transparent. the f. d. a knew the
3:03 pm
intense public interest in that data and information. it should have been preparing to release of civil tenuously with the licensure. instead, it has done the opposite. this case is not about the vaccine mandate, where the files that can be held liable. this is a fire case where the only relevant issue at this stage in the litigation is setting a reasonable processing schedule. now it's important to note that we did reach out to the us food and drug administration, about why it is their want to take half a century to release these documents. they replied and gave us a response and the f. d repeatedly highlighted that it has full confidence in the data that was used to support the fires over by an attack coven, 19 vaccination authorization. now it's important to note that one of the companies that was involved in the trial of the pfizer vaccine has recently faced a little bit of a scandal brought to light by a whistleblower. this article was published in the medical british medical journal . now the report from last month in which we had
3:04 pm
a former clinical trial auditor for the pfizer coded vaccine raising deep concerns about patients safety and about data integrity. during the process, however, a spokesperson for ven tavia stepped up and said that this person did not speak with the corporation before coming forward and discredit. some of the other allegations that were published in the british medical journal and this concern seems to have been discredited. so at the moment we have the lawsuit that was filed and we have these medical professionals saying they want this information. we expect us to be in court for some time, but at the moment the f. d, a is offering to release 500 pages a month of the remaining 329000 pages. and that would take 55 years over half a century. a u. s. tv channel has been banned from the divisive trial of called written house. that's off the one of that i think he's, he's reporters was called allegedly talking about bus carrying jurors on he's on
3:05 pm
honey reports from outside the court in connection boarding to commercial police and also the judge over seeing this case. bruce schrader, a, a possibly a freelance producer with m s. n. b, c was pulled over in the vicinity of the jury van after it left, the court house here last night after day 2 of the deliberations and the jury generally goes to an undisclosed location, a hotel, you know, other location for the night. and the person was pulled over suspected of following the jury bad, and even possibly taking pictures. and when i went to by police told police that they were an m s. nbc producer, under instructions from new york to follow this jury van. now, nbc is distancing itself at least a statement saying it was a freelancer and was never, you know, given an assignment to do that. but bottom line here is that the judge is taking it very seriously and has bad now. and, and that's nbc, from further covering in the court, the, the ongoing proceedings here is what the judge said. listen, please,
3:06 pm
when they stopped him because he was following at a distance of about a black and went through a red light, pulled him over and inquired of them what was going on in the key. that information and de stated that he had been instructed by miss diane in new york to follow the jury bus. so whether or not. 9 this guy was death was following the jury van taking pictures remains to be seen. again, this is all kind of under the investigation under review. but if he was, i'll tell you this, that is not, that's a big no, no, as media, there are rules and regulations. we have to follow covering trials and cases in here in the united states. i'm sure overseas as well. but, you know, here in the united states you never take pictures of the jury that's, that's rule number one and it's for the jury safety and also to protect the integrity crowd the trial. so if it be, and us and be seen freelance producer, producer whatever was following the jury that that is, that's
3:07 pm
a really bad move and it looks all it makes all of us look bad, frankly. so whether that affects the overall proceedings results in this trial, probably not. again, it doesn't look like any pictures were posted on line or went out of the jury, but it's a serious matter. it's being taken seriously. obviously, as you heard the judge say that said we're in day 3 of the deliberations in the car . rittenhouse homicide trial, he's facing fire charges, most serious charge, homicide murder in other states that would basically if he can be convicted, he would spend the rest of his life and present. yesterday the jury asked to see very important drone video, which is at the center of the defense teams motion for a mistrial to defend saying that they did not receive the same type of high resolution video that the prosecution had. it's unlikely to judge will declare a mistrial based upon that, but it's a 2nd motion for a mistrial. the defense team has filed in the last week in regards to the case, a case that has really polarized many americans,
3:08 pm
those who support car right now saying he was a hero, defending the property of businesses and homeowners during the riots here and protest in kenosha, wisconsin, back in august 2020 and those who say now he acted recklessly. he was a vigilante. he should have never been here with god. he was already adding to a volatile situation that ultimately turned deadly with him. shooting and killing 2 people and badly wounding a 3rd close. the rush is foreign ministers lashed out. it is worse than counterbalance accusing them of sabotage in the ukraine. peace talks like a lover of spoke croft. you triggered a different might expire by publishing these diplomatic correspondence with france and germany in connection with the crime crosses. well, we've got to associates i do in the studio here to discuss this further. saskia very unusual step here by going to love, sadly. and that's what triggered with this control, was he just walk us through the story or what exactly has that has caused this? i will absolutely talk about a diplomatic drama. on wednesday,
3:09 pm
the russian foreign minister, you could say, broke with tradition of published diplomatic correspondence between suck, elaborate, and his correspondence and both france and germany. now we're talking $28.00 pages, which refer exclusively to the ongoing conflict in ukraine. what do they show? well, they show that moscow has consistently been supportive of the so called normandy format. now, will remember, this is one representatives of 4 nations, ukraine, russia, germany, and france come together to end the hostilities. but why are these documents so significant? will that significant? because until now we've heard on so many occasions, both from france and germany, these accusations that moscow is not just uncooperative, but it's actually trying to sabotage. and he talks in the normandy format. now in fact, only a few days ago, they went so far as to say that the russian foreign minister, cicada ross had essentially flat out, refuse to attend a plant meeting. now these diplomatic wise, essentially show that that was not the case. it was a misunderstanding at best ally was in fact all parties had been formed that law
3:10 pm
had other obligations that day as for blocking the normandy format, were quite the opposite. let's in fact take listen to an except dear colleagues, i would like to reaffirm the importance of continuing our joint mediation efforts within the framework of the normandy formats to help resolve the conflict in easton ukraine. i believe that our possible meetings should be well prepared, including the early development of a detailed joint final statements with specific recommendations to ukraine and certain areas of done yet and against regions as parties to the conflict. now, when those words fit into power, some balloons concept of opposing a resolution to the conflict. i'm not quite sure. i think anyone can see that. instead, they show that moscow is willing to meet, but they want to meet in order to achieve actually something wrong than meet just a sort of wave at the cameras shake hands and appear to be doing something. and
3:11 pm
speaking of france and germany obviously evolved, you know, stukes as well the response from person. but in was tubman while the for ministries in both france and germany have come out. and they've said that this publication is a breach of diplomatic protocol, probably not to surprise. let's be honest. it's not a good look for either of them, since it really shows that they've both been quite loose with the truth. and i think it is precisely this looseness that really got moscow so frustrated that was willing to take the step in the fast pace, at least that's what number offset with sheer losing motorcycle, the study. we're all human property. we've just had enough, but we won't lose hope. it's just that our colleagues acted without decency, when they made arrogance incorrect and unethical statements daily during the last 2 weeks. would you possibly so a lot of accumulated, like i said, frustration all these accusations being flung in its direction, especially when it comes to such a sensitive issue as
3:12 pm
a conflict that had so far claimed around 14000 lives. this time. clearly, moscow felt that it was a step too far. they had the proof right at that finger tips, and they released it in order to clear that name and finally set the record straight or of course it remains to be seen whether in the future. this will stop any similar misinterpretations or misrepresentations who are going to be generous of russia's intentions and behavior all over india. indeed, in a pretty fascinating look at what goes on behind the scenes of diplomacy all the way whatever happens. tusky taylor, thanks for that. up. vladimir putin has branded as provoke, as if the military actions of the us in the black sea along the expansion of nato, near to russia's borders full who next, his autism be troop out. this addressed by a present burden came with it during his meeting with foreign policy officials here and moscow. during this meeting, he basically discussed the political and economic landscape in which russia finds
3:13 pm
itself to day. and of course, the most pressing topic is relations between russia and the west nato, and the u. s. and frankly, these relations are at an all time low right now. put in mention how this didn't usually always be the case. he mentioned that it used to be that relation between, for example, rush and he, wes, were go operative. however, over the past several decades, they have basically disintegrated and somehow even continue to get worse. right now . communications between russian nato have essentially been severed tatting to all of that is now the provocations from nato put and talked about how. first of all, nato broke all its promises and continued expanding towards the east, how countries like poland and romanian house air defense systems, which as quickly as could be alarmingly quickly converted into assault system. and he mentioned the recent incident where the several nato strategic bombers were cited just 20 kilometers away from russia's borders. he basically said that all
3:14 pm
these actions combine are essentially crossing all red lines and they are utter disregard for russia, safety and interests ah, shortly there to sure regarding the black sea, the latest absolutely goes beyond certain limits. we've seen strategic bonus fly 20 kilometers from us state border, and these bombers carry very serious weapons, as you would know. yes, we constantly express our concerns about this massa. we talk about red lines, but of course we understand that our partner is the very peculiar and to put it mildly, they have a superficial attitude toward all of our warnings and talks about red lines. put and did say that a russian nevertheless, still would like to have better relations with the west and nato, but only on terms of mutual respect. howard this point, it seems that the other side is not particularly interested in that lightfoot and said that if they don't want to build back relations,
3:15 pm
well basically they don't have to zillow like will. and mr. disobey spelled a diplomat out of the blue without giving any reason. and then they got offended that we shut down the ambition in russia. why get offended? this was their initiative. they did it with their own hands and then look for someone else to blame should be well if they don't want to cooperate with us, fine, they don't have to. it isn't something we want anyway. i think they'll want to though they're already giving us signs that they do so white spell the diplomats out of the blue for no reason just like that. but of course, nato says that it's russia, that's the bad guy and size rush to the ledger involvement in eastern ukraine, as well as other stories where russia's chain is really bad guy. but with all these allegations, head for tad said provocations. it seems that relations between russia and the west, nato and the u. s. won't be building back batter any time soon. and with winter on its way, europe centers across his shows no sign of letting up gas prices of shut off even
3:16 pm
higher, reaching nearly a 1000 euros per 1000 cubic meters. on tuesday, the 17 percent increase came right off the journey suspended certification with an all stream to pipeline other countries. energy regulatory insists the authority of the pipeline has through registered as a german entity. while the old string 2 companies based in switzerland, we discussed a situation with klaus sons, a member of the german parliament. he says that those who will suffer the most from the gas supply delay, our ordinary citizens does. it should be the only file it's in to the other, which this is unfortunate because the german, as well as european customers, will eventually pay for such delays into is necessary indeed that the pipeline opening is expedited as soon as possible for the gas to start flowing and fill out the storage facilities office and off the federal government. if the current gas price increase has something to do with russia not fulfilling its contractual obligations, i have received confirmation that russia has fulfilled all its contracts,
3:17 pm
and there is no information proving otherwise. this notion rather shows that here we have politically biased people who blame russia for anything that goes wrong. again, we do have other pipelines that operationalize, we still have nor stream one and several other pipelines that allow us to obtain russian gas. however, because the netherlands norway planning to cope gas production, i see that nor stream to will be vital to increase the gas supply, bringing i can only worn not to further politicize. the issue of europe's energy supply. germany alone has made plenty of mistakes and it will be very wrong to drive to the extreme. it is not that russia does not want to supply, rather it's a problem with those countries of transit that can abuse these circumstances. and so i would like to warn you not to mix politics and not to take advantage of this situation around by the roost, as it may once again, eventually lead to a discussion about the fight of this pipeline was who configure the indian
3:18 pm
capital new delays modeling a new locked out but not because of covers the cities aries, so polluted and poisonous. the authorities there want to take radical action that are waiting for court approval. a number of steps have already been taken. colburn, implants, and construction sites have been closed while school children and workers have been sent home alert, new delhi, of course, as the dubious distinction of having been the world's most polluted capital in 2020, contributing to the foul air or car of factory missions as well. is construction site and of course crop burning after the harvest. well, let's go live now to i guess on the story. don't i? can mccarthy, po columnist independent charlie boyle, independent journalist and anti web political commentator. thanks so much for joining a shuttle. no, great. so i'll be on the final today. dad donica, if i can perhaps talk with you weren't no strangers to lock downs all way over the past 2 going on 3 years now. we've had them for cobra to obviously save lives, reduce infections. we know just how much more danger air pollution can opposed to
3:19 pm
people. and how strong is the argument for sending people home, shutting down schools and construction sites here. when you've got an emergency situation where there's a massive peach in toxic pollution like a daily half at the moment, it's 7 times 7 times about safety levels. the local government has to take an urgent action to reduce the sources are pollution. awfully cape, you can still use public transport, they can still walk, they can still cycle. but actually what they're actually talking about in terms of locked down is not locking down. people is locking down vehicles and charlie obviously hammer blows. are being cause to the economy for through lockdown. we've seen in far industries being shut down, businesses shutting down. even if air pollution is improved and small is reduced, this is going to be catastrophic. isn't it for businesses that are already been struggling with cobra restrictions?
3:20 pm
yeah, i think it also creates a lot of mix messaging. i think your previous guess as many good point i want to come to mission of locked down. but just remember if you go back to cobra, for example, lockdown is, is, is supposed to be used as a last resort when all the other policies are failed. so it might be potentially affected short term. i don't know the, the, the science behind it, but it shouldn't be used as a medium to long term solution. what we really need is a solution to solution in general and connected to the whole work work from home on governance needs a really good messaging. very clear about this because you know, a couple of years ago, almost 2 years ago now we have saying that she should come back to the office for the economy. and now maybe we should do the opposite again. this is elisha soto, i think that needs to be a long term not just lockdown,
3:21 pm
which should only be no matter the scenario. and it's actually last, last measures where nothing else works. i mean, anthony is shawny was saying that, you know, probably a few years ago government induced locked downs, people being ordered to stay at home, curfews, that would have been an absolute, you terrifying sort of or we didn't concept wouldn't that we've sort of got used to it now, i mean, do you think the, the fact that kobe lot sounds are happening more often? it's not being spinal just through air pollution as well. is normalizing these sorts of events, the sort of legislation. you know, perhaps putting a very warring president here for people around the world, whether it could be in a course or if you look at the history, a lot of the, the speakers in the past for reality was happening, offers are crime training or people who are actually, aero,
3:22 pm
rather than locking down people who were not, so i'm sorry for to walk down for the most pretty neat. they just were so some bring on which is completely different. so if you're walking down for environmental reasons, it's very debatable because of course, a huge mound ship disruption even said the police about something on his sort of safety levels. but i think i think the on to raise is not just generally be responsible for certain percentage of the worlds or they shouldn't say i'd say bombs or median. it's a long term plan to deal with this. i think if we look at needs are already one of the key problems is neighboring areas, putting crops on the spikes, actually get it strapped to a new, done a faster key thing,
3:23 pm
which they could do something else. or the major rate, i think will say what they need to do is look up a 5 to 20000000 population. population density is very high, very nice of our sales crafts, suffering the sun, all the way up to see when we are able to learn from my boss. she try regina that trying to say should because in the world or 30 percent of the world population lives in urban areas, and it's protected to be $6720.00 a backlash, some things to service. they look out here the noise ation, it's actually how are people on the conditions and the pollution in
3:24 pm
areas because the you carry has been ration we've got enough the same deletion problem. yeah, that's a point anthony. and just got back to don't, i mean, charlie, i don't have both talks about some long term solutions haven't may. but when you know the pollution levels are so catastrophic here and now that lives are being put a risk. i mean, obviously we'd like to draw some lines in the sand and, you know, have a sort of schedule i suppose for lifting these sorts of measures. but when people protest against the short measures to deal with the sort of scenes we're seeing, usually people forgetting about, you know, social responsibility and common sense because this will ultimately help to save lives. i mean, you have to be with somebody who is suffering from long disease and middle of an emergency pollution episode like this. truly understand the human impact. my neighbor, next door neighbors, a meeting are eighties. she has
3:25 pm
a severe along the 8th. and when does a pollution in london, when she's offered a heartbreaking forward, there will be housing people suffering in new delhi to this emergency position. but i believe the other 2 speakers, this is not a long term solution at the temporary measure to deal with an emergency. what needs to happen is threefold. if need to stop the burning of stubble in the agricultural areas, that's a hit start that historical remnant from the promoting a type of grade that's, that's not suitable for the part of india. rice is a very high carbon source of food. and so they need to move away from secondly, they need to move away from the car for transport to move to the active travel, cycling and public transport in delhi itself. and thirdly, they rating india dash for coal. isn't the faster for the population, not mind. why their planet, i mean, the, the population price of the paying for the best for cold,
3:26 pm
in terms of electricity production is disastrous and valley and faster for the planet in terms of climate, climate emissions. and sol is just going back again to the parallels between cobra lock downs. and what's happening in new delhi? i mean, in the long run, of course, you know, other solutions needs to happen with cobra. it's the vaccination, it's heard immunity with their saves a deal, but as ation in sa, or falling in the number of emissions in the short term. no, i mean, doesn't this come down to human rights and people deciding what risks they want to take and how they want to live their lives? i mean the people are informed, for example, that there is a high rate of small with pollution. they can stay at home or wear masks, or choose safety measures. but surely, and, you know, putting, you know, these are these mass measures in place of businesses for schools, for construction sites. and is this too much of a, what some people call nanny state? well, an in the event of a failing situation,
3:27 pm
yet the sometimes untrusted measures have to be used for turn. i mean, the whole idea about personal responsibility, which is part of that mixed messages. mm hm. encoded especially when you cater to a certain extent. that's true. but if your actions directly or indirectly affects other people, then it's not quite that simple. so for example, if you go into the shop mass mass, primarily to, to a large extent, to protector people. so if you're not worried about yourself, then you know my mast but then it's in fact somebody else. so it's, it's a tough one. i mean, i think if we had a good government master jane or whether it's homemade or, or climate change or anything else really in a position and we will get into the emergency when you, when you, when you're talking about things, you have to take measures early and then you don't need lock downs later. let's not forget, meltdowns are a failure policy, a last ditch attempt. when governments,
3:28 pm
how to know what the solution is extremely unpopular. and i don't want to do anthony, what is a compromise here that can be reached? 13 protecting people's health and respecting people's a human rights and desire to live freely normally, i mean, as it, as i've said before, we've spoken here long term and but how long is them the measures that you've described going to take? i mean stopping climate change, stopping pollution, this sort of thing is going to take years and the stuff that's happening in the deli is affecting people here. and now today. well that where will compromises true art sheet or the other 23 d. and suddenly, with, with the locked policy, we're tre, since march 2020 it was never a policy advised by who it was sort of copied from china initially. but it's never been tried before. and you say it's all in the country.
3:29 pm
you already have to look at the record or the non walked around trying to trace the come, she just walked out all night ranger trail $400000000.00 low. just right. move all locked down, trace, you know, they have to look at sweden, 600000000 lower decks, right? than the try to see from the public made the terrible decision. well, it's worse because there was a compromise. all right? ration trying my thousands of doctors and other professional people. it was delivered to doubting streets. well as the guy i thought when carried on with the small mesh it is which is also there was never across our stone scores. they can make,
3:30 pm
check how i'm rich on the social side, our base benefits, it's all because they actually work with with crisis. so the best way to deal with the kind of the prices is, is no much medical matchers. and these were probably great ration. but one of the big problems with the government's u. k is clearly refugees. that the issue is the alternatives. what if anything is shocked out and this isn't just the national level. it's at the local level, procedure for government, soft surveillance and free speech and soft giving me guns are the what he's saying. we can vary from the very to the side or the past to action spectrum a lot sounds you know, lack.
