ah, ah no longer a beacon of democracy and perhaps never was a major international poll reveal startling thoughts on america's image abroad, especially as most countries surveyed are about to take part in a democracy summit posted by the u. s. b wet treasury threatens american journalists with hefty fines, if they work for certain publications. one author daniela's has his story with us. treasury was powers, it was enormous that of an individual freelance journalist. this was microscopic but some of them are self, right. they are unwilling even to give interviews like this one. and the number of countries registering the new omicron strain of cove. it's more than doubles to 57 since last week. the w h o talks to, i'll tell you about the threats it poses. i'm really hopeful that 1st of all, the actors vaccines will work reasonably well. and secondly,

that this doesn't prove to be a much nasty virus than the earliest strength ah hello, good to happy with. it's just her mid day here in moscow. my name is connie bray. welcome to your world news from archie international. first for you over a 100 nations are going to take part in a democracy summit over the next 2 days, hosted by us president joe biden. and america is setting the bar, dividing the world into who it thinks are the good and the bad something that china says it's got no moral right to do. maybe finally, all the food, awkward out the u. s. claims to be a champion of democracy in human rights, but has hidden its dark past and hypocrisy to day. the u. s. has no moral authority to judge whether the rest of the world is democratic or not, no matter how the us glosses over itself, it's true. face of seeking, had gemini, under the guise democracy, has long been exposed to the world. the so called summit for democracy. well,

let me go down in history as a manipulator and saboteur of democracy. ahead of the gathering over 16000 people from around 16 advanced economies took part in major research on america's image abroad. and the result sto my good reading for washington. either more than half of respondents don't think that united states is a good example to follow with almost a quarter saying it never has been of more about what else is apparently incompatible with democratic values. his art is kind of open. the u. s. government sponsored summit for democracy has already begun. joe biden is presenting it as his glorious call to spread freedom and human rights around the world. in the lead up to it, a national anti corruption program was announced. our real estate markets are at risk of becoming a safe haven for criminals, clipped to crafts and others, seeking to pock corrupt profits. now the planners say that money laundering the of the sale of paintings is very hard to regulate. this is something the white house

may be very familiar with. joe biden's, son hunter biden has just discovered some artistic talent. his paintings have sold for half a $1000000.00, not bad for someone who just started painting. although not everyone is impressed. the 3rd painting you may recognize this name is a 100 biden. now you may think that such an exclusive on that, that 100 binders and such exclusive company that he would have a background, you know, artistic training for example. but you would be wrong if you thought that. and you might think that he had some sort of apprenticeship with a world renowned artist, but you would be wrong again if you thought that, or perhaps that he has been selling his works for years. and again, unfortunately you would be wrong, this is not just $100.00 buying story. it is a bite and family story and it's corrupt. and they're basically thumbing their noses at at, at everybody because nobody seems to want to hold him into account. hunter biden is a jack of all trades. it would seem, he got paid $50000.00 a month,

vibrant. ma holdings, a company in ukraine, even though he had never worked before in the gas and oil sector. and some people looked into this and thought maybe his father got him the gig, and that does not exactly re give squeaky clean politics. however, papa biden has always denied any foul play. we have great confidence in our son. i am not concerned about any accusations been made against him. it's used to get to me under biden, also on 10 percent of the chinese investment company known as the h r. though he now announces he intends to sell his stake. when asked to clarify the relationship gen saki, the white house spokesperson didn't have much to say. the president, son is not an employee at the federal government. so at pointing to his representatives, joe biden just recently gave quite a bit of good publicity to broader electric bus company. now it just so happens that jennifer granholm, who he appointed as secretary of energy, is

a major shareholder. given that status the up to $5000000.00 in value of investment, the secretary run home continues to hold him prosser inc. his position to increase in lights for personal, unsubstantial involvement in an aggressive, wide ranging untie this public relation campaign to promote electric vehicles. batteries on charging infrastructure with jo biden's, democracy extravaganza kicking off. it's worth noting that recent polling data shows very few things. us democracy sets a good example. we decided to ask americans how they view their national leaders. do you think the american political lead is corrupt? sometimes not always, it depends on who the candidate is in which party. huge support. yeah. well, they're all serving their own self interests and then on the american interest, american people's interest at heart. do you believe the corruption allegations against hunter biden? yes. if you read the news and you listened to see in an,

you'll see how biden just did everything to cover up for a son. if there are more open about it and actually investigating it and found that there was nothing, then i'd okay. i'd be fine with that, but the fact that they're hiding everything makes me more suspicious. lots of big talk from the biden administration about fighting corruption around the world. but perhaps they should take a look a little closer to home caleb bobbin r t new york. george, i'm really from a london based thing tank on international fez says the southern buzz around corruption is just another tool to control other countries. this sudden preoccupation with corruption is a way for. busy the united states to control other countries in particular control . busy that financial transactions, and this is the piece with this democracy summit, the united states. a government is now under the control, joseph biden. and he's the bottom of just this is treasury department all

take the the from the president and then other investigate on to buy many more than maybe investigated by all of this time. he's financial transaction and his son extreme success as an office. i remember buying the announce what was the sometime in the fall. busy of 2020. i think that well, he's been told that he's under investigation by the federal government. well, time is the last and this investigation is obviously going nowhere. american journalists are being threatened with massive fines if they work for the perceived is the wrong publications to contributors to a so i called the strategic culture foundation have received stern warnings from the us treasury. this letter was sent to daniel. is that michael echo, who are both new york based journalists. it says the s c f is a list of band organizations accused of election meddling. and the u. s. citizens

who engage in transactions with the foundation a liable for fines of at least $300000.00. daniel has a shed his personal experience with this. it was a warning regarding future articles. so essentially, if i write for the, for i find gate and any kind of transaction, which i assume means any, an exchange of money i could be had with massive fines that were completely destroy my finances. so i was taken aback. i was, you know, concerned certainly, but actually had stopped writing for the since the previous, you know, of 4 or 5 months earlier. so i didn't feel personally threatened. but others who, who want to continue writing for the f works dreamily frightened fair. they have all stopped writing from the site because really there's just, it's, you know, it's impossible to, to battle the us treasury in this kind of case. the us treasury is power is, is, is enormous. and that of a, of an individual freelance journalist, as you know,

was microscopic. but some of them are so frightened, they're unwilling even to give interviews like this one. so you know, so this is what it's showing effect means they're, they're unwilling to write and they're unwilling even to talk about why they, why they're too afraid to write all the threats makeup part of a targeted sanctions campaign announced by the treasury secretary in april, treasury will target russian leaders, officials intelligence services and their proxies that attempt to interfere in the us electro process or so bertie as democracy. this is the start of a new us campaign against russian line behavior. the us government claims that the strategic culture foundation is controlled by rushes forward intelligence agency, the s b r, and that is also linked to the russian foreign ministry or foundation denies this course itself. a research platform on the ration global affairs. we've contacted the cf to get a further response to the claims and we're waiting to hear back from the us treasury to, well let you know if we get an answer. meantime, daniela's s as a dangerous precedent has already been set. i think of the that the at the s c f,

the foundation hosts honest journalism. even though i don't, i don't, don't agree with much of it. this is, this is serious work by serious journalists. and that is a supporter of a free speech and a free press. i believe that readers should have access to this. ready kind of stuff and, and yet the, the u. s. government is trying to close it down. and therefore trying to stop information, which is usually at variance with official us policy. from reaching from reaching audiences, including audiences in the us, to stop journalists from writing for these kinds of websites as a new step. and i think that, and i was surprised because because the united states, in fact has a very good track record on when it comes to a free press. i mean, in america we can say anything we want, you know, i can write the most outrageous things about george

w bush or joe biden and not have to worry for a moment about a, the search secret police crashing through my door. but now. 2 things may be changing slightly and it doesn't the order. well. the number of countries where the new cove at variance omicron is registered has now doubled in just over a week. the world health organization says the strain has been found in $57.00 countries, so far, new policies are being introduced over c, as the rate of hospitalizations could now rise. we are the w h o special envoy and cove id for his perspective on the very end. people do not understand enough about this paris. nobody knows for sure how nasty ami chrome is that there's information coming through that it's, it's not too awful. and this is good, but it takes time to sort these things out and we're in a kind of odds on stage at the moment where we're waiting for the results of the

research. what i want to say is everybody keep doing the stuff that you know what to do, even if you're bored a bit. and sooner or later we'll find out how bad only cronies, some companies saying they're vaccines will work. other saying they going to need a booster for them to be effective. all this will come clear, it usually takes about 4 weeks and i anticipate that will happen, but privately inside my. so just because you asked me, i'm really hopeful that 1st of all, the acts vaccines will work reasonably well. and secondly, that this doesn't prove to be a much nasty virus than the earliest trains. i've been involved in controlling disease outbreaks and pandemic since 2005. that's quite a few years. the one thing i've learned try never to force people to do things through various incentives like fines or even nastier things.

mandates are a last resort and the use of vaccines in children is because they did thought that vaccination will help to reduce circulation of the barrison children. but right now, the world health organization sticks with its recommendation that vaccines should be used for people who are at risk of severe illness and death. there are still an awful lot of susceptible people around even when you've got 70 percent vaccination coverage. and this high right of, of cases, you being driven by the suspect to pose. secondly, there does seem to be a capacity for the borrower to re impact people, especially if it is some months since they either had their previous infection or had their immunization, the protection doesn't last for life,

it wears off. so that's, i think, the reason why we're doing the spikes, even dagwoods high vaccination there without a from oscar to happy with the still ahead for you this, our president biden's migration policies are in the spotlight after a slump and deportations and the reintroduction of a trump error policy that led to a surge of the border in arizona. it's our next story when we come back long when i would show seemed wrong. when i just don't hold any world yet to see how this thing becomes the advocate. an engagement. it was the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground. oh,

driven by dream shaped bankers and those with dares sinks. we dare to ask ah, sir. hello again. the governor of the us state of arizona is calling out the biden

administration over its migration policies. he says border patrol tor, overwhelmed a national guards have been cold up because of what he calls biden's piecemeal policies. the bite in administrations miss direction is encouraging migrant families to take a long and dangerous journey. as thousands arrive at the border, local law enforcement is overwhelmed with processing. this search creates a safety and humanitarian crisis for both arizonans and migrants. deportations have dropped by around 80 per cent during the biden presidency. according to a migration control thinktank, the center for immigration studies has been analyzing data from the federal agency that handles the legal entry known as ice. a. notice that the deportation of criminals also fell on the director of policy studies of the group behind the report. explain to us what's happening with us migration were at a time of historically high, illegal immigration, and historically low enforcement when ice agents are not allowed to make arrests, as they were in the past, under the new policies. that means that the serious criminals that are

typically the priority for enforcement are allowed to stay in american communities instead of being sent back to their homes. and when criminals are allowed to stay here, typically they re offend and create new victims and continue to cause problems in this country. so this is an unnecessary public safety risk and is i damaging communities that have to absorb criminals who otherwise would be sent home? whereabout said, the biden administration has bent under pressure and reinstated a trump air, a program where migrants are returned to mexico to await their asylum decisions. the announcement of the re loans sent masses of desperate people to the u. s. portal to try and get in before it started working again, had to scramble we heard about in arizona. jessica vaughn says the more to be done to prevent the legal crossings. this is a matter of policy, it's not

a matter of resources. our immigration system is badly in need of reform. we need to have measures in place that result in more enforcement, more tools for immigration enforcement. more on programs that allow state and local law enforcement agencies to help ice do its job. and i think we need more money for enforcement directly at the border as well, more barriers to prevent people to keep, to crossing legally on a desperate attempt to save itself from a p r disaster over flailing economic policies. the biden administration has reportedly tried to reshape its media coverage as senior c. n. n correspondent dropped a bombshell report claiming that cd a white house officials have been briefing, major american newsrooms on how they should cover the economy. the white house, not happy with the news media coverage of the supply chain and economy has been

working behind the scenes trying to reshape coverage in its favor. senior white house and admin officials have been briefing major newsrooms over the past week, and others, ballooning prices and supply chain problems at american consumers. the biden team has been slammed for some of its economic policies and has allegedly been resulting to damage control by trying to influence reporting. now saying that itself is role that a few optimistic headlines, some going as far as stating that inflation can actually be good for every day americans. much of the public though, is finding that optimism a little bit suspicious. this sounds a lot like the start of est propaganda rollout, and the media is just browed lead meeting. they are part of it. cnn is actually bragging about this, which means c, n n n y t c m s n b c, y po. we're all in attendance ready to take orders. american journalist and commentator chadwick more claims the cnn just pretends to get biden a tough time. what does make it strange is that it is so proudly reported on this?

i have rings on them trying to reaffirm their commitment to neutrality and to pretend like they'd been getting the decision to talk time when it's nothing compared to what they did. the last president, cnn was one of the very powerful forces out of many that worked tirelessly to get this president elected and to trash and slander the former president into oblivion or so they caught me. don't forget that. during the 2016 election, we had all those e mail leaks that showed that the hillary clinton campaign was colluding with reporters and presenters on cnn about what questions to ask during debates and how to frame certain things. and that could be what we're staring here with the, by the administration. they show up to see it as offices and they explain, you know, they're unhappy with the bad reporting. the for boarding isn't that bad? i think the real situation is probably much worse. the real economic situation in

this country than even seeing that is reporting you should invest more in its military development to avoid the risk of lagging behind other major powers. that's the warning from the blocks foreign policy chief who says a significant gap already exist. we could have been union and a member of state. we need to do much more to that. and we need to do much more to have that right now. we cannot wait because they charge for the simple either we invest a lot in defense innovation or we will become defense irrelevant. according to the european defense agency, the body responsible for military cooperation and development within the block. the e. you spent a record of 198000000000 euros on defense last year. even despite pandemic, hardship. however, only one percent of that was allocated to the research and development of new

technologies when the goal was to spend double that amount. but more than 7 times, less than what america spends among other proposals to strength of the a new military. there's also a document known as strategic compass, which revives the idea of the creation of an independent european army that can be rapidly deployed to tackle any crisis of the paper also underlines the necessity for a common approach to military issues and increase spending on it. the german n p we spoke to says the supposed military threat is far from being the use main challenge right now from the beginning of the developing of the european 3 t, there was always included the idea to have a own strong military arm that say are most of the european union now of the military thinking very much developing and the urban union though they are pushing for have, having higher expenditure on military issues and to have more who are in military

capacities. but that was for a policy. the question is protected against tool. i don't think that the european union is at the moment under current stretch from from mid to terms from anybody we. ready have problems with it, but i don't see that anybody is now trying to attack military european union. everything from workplace robots to spy gadgets, all developed by young science enthusiasts here in russia. the world and all teasing goes down off. so i've been getting a glimpse of the future. so we are a young scientists, congress juice, essentially, very upscale version of a science fan. we all know and some of us. and so we've come here to see some of the young visionaries who would to this ah,

okay, so this start hair shows off all sorts of, exoskeletons from full on terminate like suits well, for the lack of a better analogy to some of the move. well, rog, sac looking types there intended to be utilized in such fields as construction agriculture, basically with any type of a hard manual labor. and well, i'm about to try one of these on. ah. okay, so i'm just, i guess some might be looking like a full but this is very tight. like you can feel that it is very good form. you know, if you need anything to keep your back straight, if you need, if you have any sort of back problems, this is already a solution. and well, let's see a firm. if it's going to be good enough for me. if i, if i find it easier, lifting any sorts of weight. so these are about 5 kilos. and again,

i've been told that it doesn't make it doesn't make stuff lighter for you, but rather it redistributes the weight that you're holding. so certain contraptions here they are, well, i'd say borderline spyware. this here is a fake base station. so what does it scans the area for the existing cellular towers? and then it imitates one of them, pretends to be one of them. so when say your mobile device connects to it, it thinks it is connecting to a legitimate, nothing out of the ordinary world base station, but instead and connects to this one. and apparently you can do and manipulate a lot of things using this device. ah, so this device here has been designed forbes scientist, essentially,

whenever they inject a lab animal with anything with sarah, they're studying, it helps them show and helps them see where the substance that they are studying the substance that they're injected. a mouse, in this case where it travels, if it accumulates in the right spot, like here. and if it accumulates in the right amounts, the developers, he are telling you that it has great potential for medicine. while this conference, it wraps up the official year of science here in russia, but the organizers say that, well, yes, they come and go, but their developments, they are here to stay hamburgers done of reporting from. so t r t k that renews for now you can get more on everything that we're following here at r t dot com on the way next. the struggle between individual rights and state security and hacking justice life from moscow. this is our to international lou.

lou is your media a reflection of reality in the world transformed what will make you feel safer? isolation for community. are you going the right way or are you being led to somewhere? direct? what is true? what is great? in the world corrupted, you need to descend a join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. maybe just a better way video don't. michelle kraus,

they might be with, can sure the coordinate, a waste figured out those. they might not spanish video yet because the launch with what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy. even

foundation, let it be an arms race is on of very dramatic development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and talk ah, on february 5th, 2016. after months of uncertainty, the united nations announces its decision. mm hm. well, i highlighted with

the expert, fanatical on the swedish and british authorities to and mister i saw as to probation of liberty. i think the recommendation is clear, respect is physical integrity and freedom of movement and afford him the right to compensation wise with push. there's a lot of them and those with me because they're making money. i is the. a and will be a, he's a paid with the attention.
