with ah, i do not tell you the russian covey vaccine. sputnik, they demonstrate strong protection against the recently emerged army chronic strain according to a new italian study and also produces more infant bodies than the 5 gab. also the criminal negligence that sy rushes foreign ministry is describing the work of some western german seeking to mislead the public into believing russia wants to invade ukraine. despite continuous denials from officials in moscow and disturbing declassified video shapes the seconds before us, dr. kills 10 afghan civilians, many than children who are playing on the streets in one of the most appalling incidents in the box withdrawal from the country. but j 5,

he says he makes apologies whatsoever for the disastrous pen. you can pull it, and iran oppose this american domination. president abraham rice, the lashes act at white high pressure. i made sure on you, can you talk to an exclusive interview? you are with hello. good evening. it's 7 o'clock here in moscow. you watching international. i was study by italian research is in collaboration with russia. has shown that the sputnik v vaccine is highly effective against the oma kron cobit strike. the results have shown that to dose vaccination regimen allows the formation of neutralizing antibodies that can neutralize the micron variant. this study together with previous studies gives additional evidence for the need a booster immunization sputnik light booster after sputnik the vaccination induces

robust neutralizing antibody response to alma kron variant. as the research conducted by the italian institute of micro biology in collaboration with the russian direct investment fund, of course, italy, one of the hardest hit countries in the world when the pandemic began on the crown is only appeared in the last few months. recognized in november since the start of january, to recognize in some $150.00 countries. now the research shows that after 2 doses of the sputnik vaccine that allows for the production of anti bodies that combine the former cron very and effectively stopping it from you taking course. the on the con varian multiplies at a rate of 70 times faster than the delta vary. the findings of the study will, of course, come as welcome news, especially to people in russia where the situation with co, with has gotten significantly worse in the past months since the beginning of january. those new co infection cases have been sort of course, after the christmas and new year holidays, those long new year holidays and most people coming back after seeing love ones and mixing together. and bringing brought the ami con, very in figures,

will suggest over the past day alone. more than 58000 new co cases have been detected in russia in moscow alone. and new record has been set as regards new code cases. so more than 11 and a half 1000 new covey cases being recorded. but despite that, moscow deputy man, anastasia covert said that the hospitalizations from co, with 19 are under control, they are stable, the healthcare facilities aren't being overwhelmed. so there is a little bit of light at the end of the tunnel, especially with the findings at this research to go out and get that sputnik vaccine. and of course, the hospitalizations from co, with on as bad as some of the new we cases take a suggest. okay, well we are very pleased to say we can, i talk with killington retrieve, he's the chief executive of the russian direct investment fund, which does distribute the sputnik feed. shelton, you are very welcome. thanks for coming on. firstly,

can you just outlined in your opinion why these findings are so important? well, i think is a really important proposal world because their dominance bonzai institute, which is one of the most reputable institute of the world. and basically it compared to miss pfizer machine and shows and sports just double the viral neutralization again for me, crohn is on pfizer. maxine and it's a very well designed study because basically they compare sarah, that was the same, a packing variables, original barrier, and then the chose at pfizer declined 20 times to get on the chrome, new decline, much less. and basically the study shows that nick is the best vaccine in the world right now. again, for me, say, would you now expect more people to want this vaccine? well, a definitely and receive explanation rates and russia increasing. i think it's also

very important for people to get a booster shots and we saw a lot of countries encouraging booster shots now. and they've extremes are being quite quickly so still to show this important. but the distance between the, both the short form of action was reduced to 3 months by some countries. for nicholas very clear that the flight is recommended. 6 months off as of explanation and annually. and that's another important part of a sport. and you can make seen is it doesn't require frequent rubrics and nations and sport nuclides both or can actually lengthen significantly the perfection of other vaccines, such as pfizer, which seems not requiring very frequent every 345 months, vaccinations. so you're still not how long, which could you leave it then before you take another vaccine. so basically what the russian cells mean is to recess 6 months. we've explanation offer us v and then

annual a re max in nations and will bill is an annual vaccinations not more frequent for explanations. is the way to go on and basically this is similar to what flu, vaccination, flu like. once a year, it's recommended to cover a vaccination, but look more frequently than that. so can you tell us more than a bad this study and how you were involved just to give people an idea of the intent to see if the research and what took place? well, a spawns, i mean it's really fault viral institute in italy and really created goes to them and 12 authors or was this article i italians from army institute and basically as a compare us put new results with 5 the results. and again, the reason why pfizer was chosen was just to have some reference because we saw that bicycles actually preacher, which results against want to crawl. and so really great funds i need to design

study, as i mentioned, really showing the same sarah. because the south side is, you know, because this sarah found both really without explaining how they get them, and sometimes it gets weaker set up with some vaccine, stronger, puts on vaccines. so this was really very clear, a lying or sarah effect if it gets too high and, and very clear results because novel vital neutralization against, or neutrons and pfizer, and very important, it's not the competitive message, it's the message of corporation. we believe that we can find their shorts will work well together. we believe that we can be reversible for many of it seems. so i'll message is that the corporations and we are offering wouldn't look like we'll start to strengthen and langston, immune response to on the chrome for many other vaccines. you think of the manufacturers will be receptive to that offer?

well, i think so we already have partnership disastrous anica, and we are working very closely with astrazeneca. we've done lots of clinical trials. we have done clinical trials in argentina with my they're not, we've seen the farm. and some of it seems that shows that combination of extreme shorts gives better results. so yes, we definitely have partnership with astrazeneca, and we believe that other vaccine manufacturers will be great partners to slow it. so good news, isn't it for sputnik say 5, but you anticipate that you would have to modify sputnik in the future? is that something that could be easily done? well, 1st of all, again, we have to be realistic about on a chrome. so there will be increase in cases just us in the rest of the world in russia, but the key is to control hospitalizations and you were correct and the previous news claimed that hospitalization follow to increase. and that's important. but we have already version of nick against the or me chrome, specifically,

this version will be a tested and this version already haven't been designed. but frankly we see side grades resolve off nick by itself. it's not clear, it needs to be modified, but we do have a moment, chrome version, and this version is being tested as we speak. and finally, would you expect the success of these results to help encourage organizations like the world health organization to approve sputnik well, definitely be on the great dialogue with w show. and i think you can see lots of major excellence boot nick. and the reality is what nick is and best, but seeing against previous mutations and this one, i think the world really needs to recognize that and it's done it, tell you independence started. so i think the lot so far, regulators now will recognize as the promise of support mac. and i think it's very important because we see lots of western media try to undermine raj from vaccine

res dolphin. questions about russian vaccine, but we have to listen to science and science in italy in equal conditions is just very clear. who is the best in the game for mcgraw? okay, well we're going to leave it on that night semester to meet 3 and thank you very much for coming on. that was carol to meet 3 i've he's to check is if the russian direct investment fund, which distributes the sputnik vin shelf. thank you. ah, my western journalists trying to convince the public that russia wants to invade neighboring ukraine, are committing criminal negligence. that is the v for moscow, where officials have consistently denied the allegations. it's amazing how american journalists speak with all certainty about russia's attack when ukraine and seem to have never heard about nato expansion to the east of the obligations a western countries to the indivisibility of security. it is as if they did not know anything about the provocations of the key aversion and washington support.

what is this holy simplicity or impermissible? neva t. i think it's criminal negligence. well, media hysteria that maria's a horrible mentioned there has spread across the west like wildfire over the past several months and bite and seems to be just as captivated by this idea of some sort of russian invasion as his friends in the western media are who seemed to be in lock step with nato. at his 2nd major press conference since taking office, he said that vladimir prudent is still calculating. he still waiting for his moment to take some sort of military action. and when does he think this invasion will be? well, with all of the might of the u. s. intelligence services at biden's disposal. he seems to think that it all hinges on putin having a bad morning one day. the only thing i'm company is that decision is totally soley, completely decision. nobody else are going to make that decision known osgood

practice? he's making that decision. since i suspect matters which sons a bit, he gets up on the morning as to exactly what he's going to do. although the side though binding did not pull any punches when he was talking about threats against russia, he promised that there would be sanctions, the likes of which vladimir putin has never seen before. he confirmed that $600000000.00 worth of sophisticated military technology has been deployed to ukraine and other nato and, and nato countries in eastern europe. so, and that was all echoed by a number of republican lawmakers who said that biden should give, put in a bloody nose if he, it takes any action against ukraine. so we've got 2 sides here, both saying that they're looking for a diplomatic solution. but washington just seems to be disregarding all of russia's negotiating points this going on. what's the word from russia, while these accusations of an eminent russian invasion of ukraine,

they've been going around for months now and time and time again. moscow has said that it's just a fantasy. they've said that, you know, russia has the right to move its own troops around in its own territory. and that should not be a threat to anyone. we stress once again, russia is not going to attack and, and why the practice of moving troops on our own soil is a sovereign right. we call for an end to syria, so as not to pile on tensions around the down this problem. and most importantly, not to push hot heads in key of towards new provocations. now to make the whole situation even more tense intelligence services from the self proclaimed danielle people's republic have said that ukraine is actually planning to attack i and sabotage key points along the front line, the line of conflict between key of controlled territory and done boston ukraine. so far, there has not been any comment from kia on these developments, but this combined with the west's attempts to stoke hysteria around an alleged russian attack, i mean, they're not doing anything for d. d escalation of the conflict there. while he's development team comes,

the west continues to send weapons te crane. just recently, the less banks nato plans to deploy arms, including anti tank missiles to forces near russia's borders with the biden had ministration. additionally, planning to ship $200000000.00 worth of missiles, ammunition, and other equipment to ukraine in the coming days. and other countries do plan to do the same. the escalation efforts in ukraine bring in more lethal weapon, u. k. air force thought if the key of, with at least 7 large military aircraft was filled with anti tank weapons on board. ukrainian officials don't hold back their excitement. this military assistance will strengthen our forces and increase our defense

capabilities. i want to stress that we will only use these weapons for defense purposes to protect the critical infrastructure and civilians from any actions that may lead to escalation, royal air force bringing peace and stability to europe. since the belgrade bombing that while political tensions ivy training show no signs of letting up at the moment, our t analyze is how the situation could develop from here. and you can read that article at our website at arte duncan, despite the appalling ongoing consequences of the u. s. draw from afghanistan, including a humanitarian catastrophe. joe biden has insisted he has absolutely nothing to be sorry for. there is no way to get out of afghanistan after 20 years, easily, not possible in the matter when you did it. and i make no apologies for you.

meanwhile, nearly declassified footage does show the seconds before one of the most disturbing moments of august pull act as a us drone, mistakenly calles 10 cobalt civilians. most of them children. in fact, you can see children walking around and playing on the street. as the pentagon prepares to strike and mrs. the moment of the blast, as civilian can be seen crossing the road while the messiah was fired. there are grown questions about accountability for the strike, despite issuing an official apology for the attack that the pentagon does maintain, that no one will be punished for the deadly mistake with defend spokesperson john kirby, claiming that there is not enough evidence of personal accountability. the brother of one of the victims says the operation makes a mockery of us claims of precision bombing. okay, we'll talk more about this and go to brian beckett. he's the national coordinator

for the anti war on the coalition. and very good to have you back on having seen this drone footage, what's your reaction? is it really possible that the pants can didn't see civilians crossing the robed? i don't think that's possible at all. let's just remember that 240000 people died in afghanistan in the last 20 years for in this, in the u. s. nato invasion of their country. there were no afghans on the plains that attacked the world trade center or the pentagon. but 250000 afghans died. a huge number of them were civilians. according to the pentagon to own statistics between 20182900. the u. s. bombing took the lives of 15000 africans. the only difference between the drone strike that killed this entire family, including many children income rule and the other taxes that we didn't see the

other attack. the reason the media was focused on this attack is it happened just days after the suicide bomber killed a number of us marines at the cobb will airport during the withdrawal phase. so the media was in couple the u. s. said that they had to prevent another suicide bomber attack. and so there was a certain openness, a certain publicity that didn't exist for all of the other afghans who have been killed by these american drones attacks. there is never been accountability. i mean, when you kill tens of thousands of civilians and there's not one criminal prosecution, that means it's not simply the drone operators, quote mistake close quote. it's the decision of the war makers. they prefer to shoot and kill 1st and ask questions later or ask questions. never because as long as the bleeding and dying is done on the afghan side, there's no political liability in washington or in the united states. that's the logic of a criminal war and war crimes in

a criminal war. when you go back to the footage, brian, because when you look at it and you do see civilians fair and you see children playing on the street, what could possibly be the thought process of the person in charge of that try, you know, they thinking well, these lies are a pro, a price worth paying or so actually they're not worth anything a tool. well, 1st of all, without knowing the exact intent in the mind of the drone operator, this is a war crime, the geneva convention obligates parties at war to take excessive measures to prevent civilian casualties. that's an explicit part of international law. now the footage that you're seeing and that i'm seeing and that your audience is seen, shows a young child just feet away from the man that's about to be destroyed by the drone, attacked by the u. s. military. clearly that is a war crime. the pentagon cannot simply say, look, international law doesn't apply to us. we can hold international criminal court

events in the hague, for other people, for the targets of american imperialism. but we ourselves are exempt. we have a waiver. no, that's not how international law works. so regardless of the intent of the particular drone operator, and i would say the intent is pretty nefarious and bad looking at this. beyond that, it's the pentagon high command that's actually responsible. and overall, why do you think we have seen so many of these incidents in afghanistan? well, you know, the united states could not win in afghanistan. it's a little bit like what happened in vietnam, right? the united states invades the country, the people in the united states, and the soldiers who are sent there. don't know anything about the people. they don't know the language. they don't know the culture. they don't know the religion . they just know that those people could do them harm. and so the u. s. high command in vietnam and the u. s. high command in afghanistan and iraq for that matter, says to the american soldiers, look,

here's the real rules of engagement. if you kill afghans who are iraqis or vietnamese, no price will be paid. we would rather have that happen. then have you die because of you die than americans back home are going to say, what the hell are we doing in afghanistan or vietnam or a rec? so this is the logic of having all the bleeding and dying die on the side of those who have been targeted by the american military. that's the logic. that's why 250000 afghans were killed during the last 20 years. that is a startling statistic. brian, we're gonna leave it there. but nice to talk to you tonight. that was brian beckett, an answer coalition, national coordinator, thanks for coming on thursday night for more on the consequences. the u. s. for ontario, do you guys watch t dot com? because there you can find and comment to our special project that is called unheard voices. where we think speak to those on the ground, hit by americas for in afghanistan and exclusive

interview with our tea errands. president has said he wants a group of nations free of us control. the comments come and made hiking tensions with washington avenue. clear talks with tara, not his motor cast, yet headlines. now the key points that were raised this interview was the iranian president's 1st such interview to, to foreign press. or we were fortunate that went on for a while, the better part of a now. and those are a lot covered. obviously, one of the 1st things we talked about is relations with russia, between a rod and russia, the strategic corporation deal that is, that is still being in between the 2 countries that goes way into the future. 20 years into the future, envisioning all sorts of cooperation between iran and russian. i asked the written president, why, why russia? and he says that the 2 countries have a lot that they agree on. there is

a lot that they can mutually benefit on and that ultimately they are both countries that want to be free or their own. sol, teva case main principal is that we do not want to accept domination over other countries and do not want to be oppressed. we want to be an independent country, just like russia wants to be here. and it is these countries that want to be independent. but being attacked by their rival, the americans don't want to independent countries on we oppose american domination, or seen the gist of what he said is that the united states and its allies think again, any that they want to crush any nation that wants to charge it its own course in infancy, and that is what we have seen with syria, with libya, with, with other nations. you. i also asked him about cyber crime about the constant accusations against iran, of conducting harbor attack to get some elation cyber espionage. to which the radiant president replied look at what is happening in iran. we are regularly

targeted with some of the biggest cyber cyber crime operations. the world has seen where all our petrol stations are nuclear, nuclear power objects a, how does it by far inside 2 attacks, which drew no condemnation from the international community. he also, he also spoke about his ties, the country's ties to china, for example. and i also asked them about a recent video where the radian military was seen conducting a mock mock attack against donald trump. this is all tied into the murder, the killing of cuz he said a monday and iranian commander who went to great lengths to come back isis in the middle east. you forgot to little bit. miller asked him to a money and he's associates. well, heroes in the fight against terrorism in iraq and they've been killed or someone wants to be oppressed, they won't be seen as being depressed and the right to be seen as being the oppressor. with adult naval, understands that they know who is committing oppression in the world. and what the

radiant had to say is that there must be responsibility. this is a matter of principle for that that an international investigation must belong to donald trump must on the for that killing. in court. as i say, there was much more covered during this interview and the full version will be boots you very soon. and i, french teachers are staging and unsanctioned mass walk out and demanding that the education chief is fired after he and i strict new rules for schools while relaxing on the spanish party island. divide baser, charlotte davinsky reports now from the protest in paris. hey, chest. as it's not been authorized, hasn't seen the sort of support we saw in the protest just a week ago when around the 80000 education workers came back to the streets at cost . frogs had to show their discontent with the ever changing. they say covert regulations, the protocols in school would tracy have been chaotic figures today say that fewer

than 2 percent of teachers were out today. this protest, but it's not the last one. there is another one that is scheduled for next week that has been given the approval by the authorities. however, what we have seen is huge and get from the teachers. we've spoken to you about the fact that those everchanging rules came from an education minister, who was on the holiday in ib. asheel, cooler on furious, that in 2 years of the pandemic. nothing has been done to adapt to it. we are not protected. we don't have masks, we have nothing but neural also because vacation is shocking. we have the right to a vacation as much as every one else. it's not us, churchill, you are causing a problem with them. who don't listen to us or have a dial. did a few slots we, i mean everyone has the right to all the minutes is of course, very symbolic. when it says that the minister is disconnected from us, he prefers to told not with the media this confirms the bad relations between awful

. now, what happened was, at the beginning of the year, there was a decision taken that if a child in the class tested positive to go with other children in that class, have to go and have several convey tests that have to be taken at pharmacy. some authorities that put huge pressure on the testing system here with bronson so massive keys outside of pharmacy to parents, waiting for hours in the cold and rain, trying to get their children testing done. these new regulations. teachers say that they've essentially become the contestant trace managers having to check every day that children are convict negative. and this is why they say they're angry that these change came at the last minute from a minister who is on holiday john michelle john blanca, who they've asked to now resign from his job has though defended his actions for 2 years. i have been working 7 days a week for the management of schools in the health crisis. thanks to the work of everyone, especially teachers, france has been

a country of open schools. i took 5 days off. i was in contact every day with my ministry in the service of the school. the pressure put on the government. well, not protest last week. the biggest education protested some 20 years past you tune by the government in terms of some of the demos we've heard from teachers. the prime minister is saying that they will supply teachers with mosques and that they will look to hire more stuff to compensate for those who are eliza results conquered the reason sensitive and good, not just by teachers, but across other weights of the population because of the changing rules in regard to colgate fonts is battling this current wave of the pandemic. i mean, just to give you a sense this week, we broken or reco into coding positive numbers. we've more than 450000 post to paces being recorded in one day. i see you can see at the moment which is intensive care, he said about 76 percent. as the government is trying to deal with

a steroid huge scrutiny. decisions that have be made over the last few years, but also the last few months and weeks. and this is particularly important because we are in, in a very, very crucial election year here shot and pinsky reporting that empower. so that brings you up to date that still the nice i thought today we're back again in about 30 minutes. ah . with her driven by dreams shaped by 10 percent of those in

there's sinks, we dare to ask if anybody's been trapped in an elevator, 20 minutes could be pretty long time right and a load trapped in an elevator for 20 minutes. not knowing what's going to happen, not knowing where you are. suits of sensory deprivation. i think that is your life. now. 20 visit about an hour. not at all. yeah, in the intercom is nothing i was trying to get you out because keeping you eat is your communication. oh and i think distance.

oh.
