ah, the new gateway headlines from r t joe biden promises that the u. s. won't deploy offensive strike weapons in ukraine during our long conversation with him, a potent as the crisis over the country stretches toward the new year. one of the biggest issues, vaccine inequality, the leading charity lays bare how poor countries struggle to inoculate against cope it. well wealthier nation let big pharma re pastoral nomic profits and determined to see in 2022 with a bang germans van from buying fireworks for a 2nd year because of cobit flocked to poland to keep the party going. with friday, the 31st of december were in the final hours of 2021. i'm calling bravery the world

news from moscow. this our 1st then with some of the holiday spirit in mind, perhaps the russian, a new s leaders have indicated the ties. it could be turning a corner after what's been an intense few weeks, joe biden, and redeem a potent spoke for an hour on the phone with the american president, even promising not to deploy offensive strike weapons in ukraine. if a tank it takes us through what they discussed. now we do know the details of the latest phone conversation between the presidents of the us and russia. they have come in from both administrations. and they're not strikingly different. but it could be felt that moscow and washington were emphasizing different things. what we heard from the adviser to president potent was that his counterpart made it clear that the west has no intention of deploying offensive strike weapons in ukraine. now, this is something that is very important for moscow. this is something that the kremlin

has many times called a red line for russia. besides, this says the kremlin of watermark potent told mr biden, that russia will defend its own interest just like the u. s. would if it was facing similar threats on its doorstep when mr. brewton heard about the threat of new sanctions against russia, he warned joe biden, that this could actually lead to ties being cut completely between the 2 countries . so next to the version from washington, joe biden called to deescalate the ukraine situation altogether. but also warned that the u. s. and allies will continue to monitor all actions by russia and also maintained that they are ready for all steps that line are approved and could make when it comes to ukraine plots. mr. biting,

talked about reinforced nato strength and said that ukraine will get extra military assistance from the lines. should the situation escalate? now it's really worth mentioning that this phone call falls proposals made by moscow for european security and stability. and one of the major points that mom goes making, one of the things that russia really wants is at legal guarantees by the nato countries that the aligns wouldn't expand further east. that new weapons wouldn't be deployed at russia's doorstep at now. also, we do have to understand that in about 2 weeks, crunch talks on the european security will be held in geneva and we heard from both sides to leaders won't take part. however, they will be supervising the talks personally. now

a little earlier we heard from the russian foreign ministry spokeswoman about what rushes looking forward to when it comes to these particular rounds of negotiations, particularly i want him to do are you in the talk to asked us to ensure a firm, legal guarantees of security for russia, nato will not be able to move on the east and that weapon systems that threaten russia will not be deployed near our border. there is no agreed position, but when all the west and partners within the e. u. a nato european security is not a new topic since 990. we have been proposing not to allow the security of some countries at the expense of the security of others. what was so interesting about the proposals which are currently being discussed is the, was pretending that this is the 1st time they have heard about it. we already have written fundamental principles in our joint document. and they were supposed to have been already implemented. so it is a fact that the heads of states are in touch more and more often. and we heard

confirmation from both the administration in washington and in moscow that these frequent contacts will continue in the new year as well. well, some thoughts on that investigative journalist rick had sterling says it's understandable why russia wants nato to halt its east and expansion. i think it's reasonable to say that moscow was very legitimate, legitimate concerns. it looks like the u. s. in the military. industrial complex is looking to to increase the conflict in ukraine. nato is already expanded into many countries. there are numerous countries on the, on a, on the border that, that were part of the soviet union and that are no part of nato. so, given the proximity of ukraine to, to russia, given the proximity to moscow, only 460 miles of the russian demands. the red lines are

completely understandable. also spoken at length to an advisor on soviet affairs to former us president ronald reagan. in the finally days of the cold war, susan massey says that the only way forward for russia in the us would be a constructive relationship. his, some of the full interview that we're showing today here on our tea. it is more important in my view, important than ever that switch that you are, the united states and russia develop a constructive relationship. because i think if we can do that and i'm hoping we can, it would be better for the whole world. my goal is always to try to explain russia better than many americans know that i don't mean better could, but simply more completely than they do. and that's what i did. and that's why i wrote the books i've written because americans, alas,

there are many americans who don't know much about you. arthur, countries i definitely in beneath ortho, humanizing it each other in each other's eyes and well is neither your very human. you tremendously healing and i think it's a wonderful thing that you can help americans with for many reasons. i believe that we need each other more than ever. now that just my feeling, it's important that you and we are able to exchange our different talent, which are biden's wrapping up his 1st year in office. and it's been a tough one here and that i'm pops on. everything's gone so smoothly when the cameras were rolling. ah, [000:00:00;00]

with no, no, no way to me. i'm asking you a question. if i say, is that accurate the best you know? ah, with that from down. thank you very much. i don't present harrison. i took a virtual tour vaccination center in arizona with

los angeles and when my daughter, the long bit long reach, thank you but are going to write yet another chapter. and the beautiful story of the friendship between our 2 nations has long been claimed that wealthy countries have been hoarding vaccines. but now a leading charity has been crunching the numbers ox fams found that rich countries did in fact receive more coping jobs in the weeks leading up to christmas than the entire continent of africa did the whole year. it's now pushing for poor countries to be allowed to produce their own patent free vaccine. companies behind tills, in most successful coven 19 vaccines. pfizer buy in taken mariner and making combined profits of $65000.00 every minute. despite receiving public funding of over $8000000000.00, the 3 corporations have refused calls to urgently transfer vaccine technology and

know how with capital producers and no and middle income countries. all crammed call comes amid estimates those vaccine make as pfizer buy on tag, madonna may pre tax profits of 34000000000 dollars this year. that works out to more than $90000000.00 a day. 65000 dollars of minutes or more than a $1000.00 per 2nd. we discussed how the yawning gap between profits and inequality emerged with investor banker mitchell fair steam and economist richard wolf. the industries have benefited the most, include pharmaceuticals because of the government support for a vaccination and also allied medical care industries. every bit of the profits earned by the vaccination that we are seeing has been supported and fundamentally subsidized by the taxpayer, by the government. and that means if there were any justice that the government

would debt some of the profits. again, the major maxine companies, pfizer, of number one, have seen record profits. they could easily share those profits with the government and therefore the people because the people subsidized the entire operation is become a pandemic of fear. where the government has ratcheted interest rates down to the real interest rate is a negative interest rate. or banks are able to borrow from the federal reserve, unlimited quantities of money, which is driven to the biggest asset bubbles in the history of the planet, which has created the greatest wealth and equality gap we've never seen and only continues to get larger. big pharma has made oversized and outsized profits. they made a lot of promises. they haven't delivered on a lot of promises. it's a problem of leadership. this entire blame it on coded blame it on russia. blame game is 40 years, have failed neo liberal policy,

trying to shift the blame for incompetent policies. incompetent politicians who now want to seize control by using a virus or using any other method. the centuries old rivalry between britain and france made a big come back in 2021 from the migrant crisis to fishing disputes, bickering between leaders and a controversial defense dale france correspondence. charlotte basically looks at the countries trouble ties france and the u. k. have been like 2 squabbling neighbors for a millennia. at times those disputes have descended into full blown wars. but for over a century there has been this relative, calm, not is until now. in the past, the u. k. is had plenty of success against france on the high seas, but now the french are looking to recapture access to waters between the 2 countries. for fishing rights only going to print, didn't we still,

since the beginning of this year don't have the licenses i did. we're not fighting with the english and we're engaging in dialogue to try to make our position understood so that we can get access to these waters. so i think we may have to go further find other approaches that may not have been previously addressed. the agreement signed today provides for retaliatory measures. europe must apply those measures for boil official tail, so rotten that france even threatened to turn off the u. k. is electricity supplies, but was this about more than simply making waves over fishing licenses? i suspect also about that. there are many reasons why right now are having a spot between the british and the french is very convenient for both for a minute, for the prime minister of great britain and for the french president. of course, it is about more than fishing licenses. 98 percent of fishing licenses that were applied for were already granted. the french thing is about 40 votes. it's is just

something to sort of keep it alive for other quarrels between france and britain are a little serious, but that one is, is completing the manufactured. even though the u. k. has now granted more licenses . french fishermen are still unhappy and continue to threaten british imports. now that brings us to another bone of contention. migraines, the u. s. wholly still struggling to find a way to deal with mass, illegal migration. but the brakes think francis found a solution. turning a blind eye to those who try and cross the english channel, france is failing to police its coastline. we could fund double the number of french police, but they are not serious about intercepting migrant groups in broad daylight. it would further anger taxpayers here by throwing more good money after bad. i believe this reluctance to intervene. this refusal to get involved is a political decision. president emanuel mac are on is seeking re election next year

and thinks dumping on the british will win in bots and go, was really stoked, following the deaths of almost 30 people in the english channel in november. now they had been trying to reach the u. k. shores, but france hit back telling the u. k to stop it's latches. britain is in no position to be giving lessons to us. britain should stop using us is a punch bag in the domestic politics. correlations came to a standoff as british p. n. johnson. and his views on twitter now that 3 french president micron into a hissy fit. jesse shockley, the method, i'm surprised when things are not done seriously. we don't communicate between leaders via tweets or publish letters. we're not whistleblowers or come on somebody . no. so all of this came on the back of a bumpy selma for france. a to just found out that it's dean of the century with australia to build a fleet of sub marines had been torpedoed in favor of

a new one with the u. s. canada. and oh yes, the u. k. hotley recipe for success. but what the issues between the u. k. in france really boil down to might have more to do with the opinion the to leaders half of each other. i think it was really a political thing and the of the side effect sort of to, to stuff to abs fuel, to the cy, between false and great britain, that was just an added plus each of them a min mccolan boys, johnson sees and the other. what they hate most bars, johnson is shambolic disorganized. he goes on the fly, he has a sense of humor and amendment. my call is a control freak. he, he's a bureaucratic technocrat. he is, has attention to detail on both of them. they work in different ways and they despise the where the other functions, they don't like one another. i mean it's, it's is rarely politics rally personal. but in this instance, each of them has got

a sort of vision of how they want international relations to go and it's not the others. and then it becomes personal francais, even try to get the, you invested in only ongoing squabbles taking a very one for all and all, for one approach. the e. u, though has remained relatively aloof, but that is a whole other capital of fish. tell it even ski asi paris. i'm glad for you this new year's eve, all nazi the sky high celebrations on the international space station. and we re visits a world 1st. the russian film crew produced the 1st of a movie to be filmed in albany. it's our next story when we come back, lou.

ah, well, at the new year, special kaiser at bart with the one and only gerald salenti, originator of the trans forecast man. no stuff. ah, us things that have happened in the world were being done by people who had a great vision of how society can be better. that great vision is typically velez hemisphere representation is not real. it doesn't take into account any of the complexity of reality. the subtlety you how various and complex people i put them into categories is this lot is bad, we'll get rid of them. you know, and change is an organic process. change is an evolution, and the opposition is not to gene status and everything must stay the same. and everything must be radically changed. a radical change is not the way that that

kills ah, hello again. now most of us get one shot at midnight to ring in the new year. it's a bit different though, when you're orbiting the earth, 16 times a day. where do you start? but the crow on board, the international space station always get to celebrate in style is the russian cosmonaut sneer message for all of us back here on f. lucio. hi, dear friend. from the international space station were cosmonaut santano cup lira and peter de roth reached sharing review this magical feeling of the upcoming new year. both here and space and back at home on earth. numbers you live on the norm were wishing you a new year, 2022 of good health strength, prosperity and new achievement survey. you stay close to one another and d mary. happy new year. good them well, this year the i assessed for help to rush or achieve a movie making 1st,

a film crew when did orbit to produce the 1st ever feature length movie to be shot in space. the team spent 12 days on board before returning safely to earth, and we were that to welcome them back. ah, if you our class before we can fly, let me know if they have already on dr. national say, let me but they already somewhere i padding back a dad. why go in the landing spot? know me, we know the landing location in berry. so now we're gonna lie around. i feel we can actually see that as standing module and wait until it touches down

with well, as you can see, the capitol is on the ground. the crew is still inside, but we've been told that they're feeling. all right. somebody is speaking with the crew, right? now, so history has been made a russian professional to a makers that just went into space, but also safely returned to earth with footage for their 1st ever feature movie that has sort of shaken in actual space. the whole crew are treated like hero. with this is film director, clinch benco, safe and sound just came from the space. the international space station is 400 kilometers above the earth surface. and a returning spacecraft usually covers the distance in 3 hours. for the most part,

it's freefall and the speed can reach 120 meters per 2nd. extreme acceleration baird with gravity taking in put the crew, her enormous physical stress. nonetheless, she benco's seemed in high spirits. and those oci i said, those are good. were houston wiggling, although olga bullock though with sure, could you be the glue who, who applause, marguerite, she's working on whether the closure vadar occur, non excuse knows what she knew by the one ling bullet, doro, a moon garcia, room of sheer 3 or more carefully. so that was to me to click the blue showing but useful if you go to choose to initial the quantity of bush and you can then use with ice cream machine. him as a minute. that was actress. you library seal has just received flowers. both you lead a c n cosmonaut alex ivy ski had to act even before the laughter capsule. the landing location turned into a film set for one of the closing scenes of the movie about

a doctor who sent into orbit to perform surgery after that very sealed, who plays the lead role left her autograph on the capsule that not only brought her back home to date, but also sent her acting career sky word from now on. she is the 1st actress filmed in space. you can call us, you shanika. so it was scheduled that i would like any family going on with my mom, with talking with them. and now the renowned russian actor of lead miramar scott, who played a command or greeting the crew on the ground, sat the movie is a big lead forward for the world's film industry yet. and i saw my back in my little macros, the eve, or theme on hightail, taurus names of course miss in order to give his ill or sierra know young as low. you're getting additional new visual because language at austin will be aware smugly at the still of the social for me will close with um with sure of. no, i'm not going to do so, but i was calling it bulge it me a question that theory is like

a buddhist wish you religion limit as digit. i'm city educator yet because me or i'm a chef lithium store. i better go to lose you. amazed hello, mr. garcia, if you store us to the right spot center of the plan, you don't like in them until yara, or let's get a closer look at the capsule. just look how actually burnt it is right here. because when the capsule hurdles through earth's atmosphere at a temperature outside riches, up to 2000 degrees celsius and it feels like you are inside a fireball, the mission is also a large stride forward for the russian space program which made space travel possible for 2 non cosmetic, after just 4 months of training and it's more than space tourism, it's about professionals from different areas and not just career cosmo now's been able to go into space and do their job, meet acting or something else. as, as the head of russia space agency to be the mom would have to go to do most beside the scope of them. but that it was not to be to that the coverage on lowest denise

. but other than over which up. but i am going to go through, but on some of you all a cup, but i am for to go to him but, but that it was good percentage when you need us on them. but got the him of plan. ah, there is a lot of food for thought in the months to come about that, but for now everyone here including us, is just extremely excited to witness something that will definitely go down in history. as in a rush, got reporting from doesn't stand. oh, razzles was something else as well. the movie crew had to undergo special training to get accustomed to 0 gravity conditions. and we followed that unique adventure. ah, in his little cribs else is on us,

usually middle creates an issue with hughley or what's. what's that, you know, i know that celeste chilton, with mutually with diarrhea, need leonor, nor good nor gustavo would cheat museum company. we are usually not just suki at vdm foreman year by you linear unethical interest. all of these are just offered to you. furthermore,

with this issue you should know them. you go to someone you most could voice are pretty easily, could force more soup with dont owns or see if you just because that's the one that gosh, there are to do it friday. jessica, by a to me and you just so to which of being in the, in your household, you can play with the, with the chair pena annoyed value with good, you can use the last my little id by. yeah. and that's it. mm

hm . with 2022 is about 2 and a half hours away in the world's 1st time zone of fireworks are going to be the new game soundtrack around the world for the next day or so at least next year in germany. when now it's a challenge because the government's band private sales for the 2nd year in a row is to put people off large gatherings because of cobit, but it's led many germans to help across the board at a neighboring poland to get their new gears supplies shedding some light on the story is peter oliver. the brandenburg gates the location for the traditional job and new year's celebration. it's also home to an annual fireworks extravaganza.

the it's about the only place you'll see them lighting up the night. sky is the country rings in 2022. as the german government has found their private sale, as part of the last round of covert measures brought in at the start of december. because to knock the reasoning behind the decision, les and hawk firework display between midnight and the early hours, less calls to the emergency services, also less people mixing and gathering bond on the sale of fireworks. doesn't mean no fireworks. people have been popping over the poland to stucco for fireworks are part of new year's eve. it's a tradition to set them off and it would be a shame if it didn't happen. while german pay may be rejoicing at the prospect of less frightening fireworks shops,

selling them in poland and making hay. while this particular shines at the moment because of the band in germany, we have about 300 customers a day and we are pretty overloaded. they buy a lot, it varies, but on average it's about 200 years per person. the band on selling small fireworks is purely a symbolic policy. the available figures show that a band will not noticeably relieve emergency admissions, nor will infection rates be effectively reduced. it's the 2nd year in a row that covert has put paid to firework sales, here in germany. and i should imagine it's left firework retailers. fizzing. one of the plus side to less fireworks is less clean up needed. in the aftermath, the german capital is usually small, that in a blanket of discarded munitions following the festivities, this year revellers that don't get their hands on. some polish pyrotechnics we'll have to make do with the professional, displace peter all for all t. berlin. okay,
