ah, ah, the russian covered vaccines wouldn't agree demonstrates a strong protection against the recently emerged alma constrain according to a new italian study, and also produces more antibodies than the pfizer jap. criminal negligence. that's how russia foreign ministry is describing the work of some western journalists seeking to mislead the public into believing russia wants to invade ukraine, despite continuous denials from officials in moscow. f disturbing, he classified video shows the seconds before u. s. drone kills at 10 after and civilians, many of them children who were playing on the street in one of the most appalling incidents in the box to withdraw from the country. but joe biden says he makes no apologies whatsoever for the disasters. pentagon pull up and iran opposes american
7:01 pm
domination because then abraham righty lashes out at white house of pressure amid k rod nuclear talks in an exclusive interview with broadcast lab director studios in moscow. this is our international and i'm john thomas. certainly glad to have you with us. right now, a study by italian researchers in collaboration with russia has shown that these footnote v vaccine is highly effective against the omar con, covered strain. the results have shown that to dose vaccination regimen allows the formation of neutralizing antibodies that can neutralize the i'm a chron variant. this study together with previous studies gives additional evidence for the need of booster immunization sputnik light booster after sputnik the vaccination induces robust neutralizing antibody response to ana kron variant. well, i think is a really important for the wolf because they have dominance poems on the institute, which is one of the more threat double institute of the world. and basically it
7:02 pm
compared have to have food with 5 of a fee and shows and sports me just double the wire on neutralization again for me, crohn is on fire like seeing and it's a very well designed study because basically they compare sierra that was the same a packing, why would variance original varian? and then they chose at 5, declined 20 times against one week. wrong wouldn't declined much less. and basically just idea shows that, or nick is the best. but in the world right now, again, stomach wrong and very important. it's not a competitive message, it's a message of corporation. we believe that we can pfizer shorts will work well together. we believe that we can be universal both of them in the eyes of extremes . so all message is that the corporation and we are all friends, wouldn't like both 3rd to strengthen and lengthen immune response on the cross for many of the rec fees. study shows around $3.00 and $4.00 of those vaccinated wits
7:03 pm
wouldn't. v had antibodies against i'm a crohn and left people with twice as many anti bodies than the pfizer shot, the head of sputnik developers, the gamma layer research institute told us more about the study and its results are when they all my constrain came to europe, none to russia, of course, there was a desire to look at how sputnik they would protect against it. first we study the institute serum from those facts night and was sputnik the, the study showed the 75 percent of russians vaccinate with sputnik. they had enough antibodies to be protective mo, micron and among those who got sputnik lighters, abuse the job, the number is 100 percent around 3 months after the booster. after that, italian colleagues from the spell and zoning institute, proposed joint studies of serum from those immunized with sputnik v and those immunized with pfizer. the conclusions in the article, the result, the 3 week work. the main conclusion is that all studied vaccines are less effective against omicron, but serum from those vaccinated with sputnik dell of
7:04 pm
a micron, 2 and a half times better than those jobs with pfizer. thus, despite at 1st the serum being the same when it comes to neutralizing the wheel and strain, this likely happens because sputnik ve provide a wide range of antibodies against different strains of cove. it. that's how our vaccine was designed. our specialist said from the start that the vaccine should be designed to provide as wide a range of antibodies as possible. while m. r n. a base vaccines were designed to provide high levels of antibodies against the whoop and strain, but not to provide a wide range of antibodies against different strains on his cross over to america. now where the state department has released a document accusing both the rti channel and the sputnik agency of propaganda and this information, claiming that they are critical to moscow's goals of changing global public opinion about russia's actions in ukraine and other countries. we have our teeth dinner course, or she corresponded daniel hawkins with more on that. well,
7:05 pm
this is the latest report released by the state department on all the documents about 30 pages long and is titled all teens put next row in russia. this information and propaganda ecosystem. we have seen similar reports before. of course they come out with fairly regular intervals. the last one came out in august 2020. in fact titled pillars rushes information and propaganda ecosystem. one of the report back in 2017 part of a piece by the us intelligence community, a part of which was the classified and accused r. t of the russian government meddling in the us presidential election. obviously in favor of the presidential candidate donald trump. but back to this latest report, studies allegedly several case studies of art. he's coverage ranging from the 24 team, my da revolution to all his reporting on rush and tuckers. relation to this latest
7:06 pm
reporting on tensions on the ukrainian or russian border and beyond effectively accuses all of being unbalanced all effectually disseminating this information and propaganda to influence public opinion on global affairs in russia's favorite. does it give credit to r t, some of the quote stat saying that our bix online reaches comparable to other pan arab channels. it says all to use go to significant audience in latin america and also highlights all growth on social media. so it does give all the credit in terms of its growth and influence. a lot of the quotes here though, again state for example, instead of providing a balance to count the r t present only one position that selectively the prominence position on the issue and covers that makes the criminal look good. and
7:07 pm
it's about 3 look bad as opposed to other so cool, independent media outlets, whatever those of course may be. so really, having had a cursory glance at this report, as we say, it does bring up a lot of old media coverage show, focuses on this latest coverage concerning the tensions in ukraine. and of course comes on the back of those talks between russians of officials with us officials with made to officials which have been taking place over the last few days. and of course ahead of that all important negotiations to morrow in geneva, which form and if this guy allowed off is attending alongside the us secretary state anthony blinking. so perhaps a bit of old timing that out of time when negotiations are taking place when hope and diplomacy is meant to be there. and the state department officials have said the diplomacy is not dead. so again, the slightly old timing, of course,
7:08 pm
for this report, but perhaps to be expected and will certainly bring you some more response when, when we do get a close look at that report. by joining me now live as the executive director of the ron paul institute, daniel mcadams. thanks for being with us here. as always on our international. yes . if we get right down to this and we break it down, it's kind of weird because i work for r t m here the media is, is a thing that is part of this on some ways, but isn't it hypocritical to cues rushing channels of unbalanced reporting when the mainstream us media is frequently blasted for being one cited as well, i mean, they're the ones who are saying that we're russia is going into ukraine. well, us foreign policy is one of projection. the u. s. accuses russia of invading countries, and in fact, as the u. s. invaded countries and you know, that the time. so, you know, this report is both comical on one hand, but deeply anti american. on the other hand, it's comical because it has the air of sort of
7:09 pm
a doctor. strange love meets the invasion of the body snatchers. if you dare watch r t, you may be transformed into an alien. you may be an enemy of the united states. i really reeks of cold war propaganda. you know, i started reading it with an open minded, you know, 20 some pages. i tried to read with an open mind thinking ok, they're going to going to still going to really nab r t on some big mistakes that they made. there was not a single specific example of where art he got anything wrong. it's just that they don't like a flavor of it. they don't like any alternative voices being out there, and that's their chief beef with r t. so it's pretty pathetic when you profess due to endorse pluralism in the media . and in fact, you want to shut down any opinion that is contrary to the official u. s. government opinion. so if you look at the cases quoted in the report, they focus on instances where our tea has not been seen, at least to follow the western narrative. how can they be seen as propaganda? when so many argue that they are adding
7:10 pm
a valuable balance to that western bias. well, here's something funny that i wrote down the cynthia, and in the introduction of paraphrasing it, one study reported that americans exposed to r t content are more likely to prefer that the u. s. withdraw from its global leadership position. and that's, that's pretty interesting because it says essentially, if you watch r t become anti american, but they define being pro american as being pro interventionist. now, there was a recent survey of americans as recently as december of 2021 by you gover. which found that 73 percent of americans preferred the government to focus on domestic issues rather than foreign policy. i. e, 73 percent of americans want us to pull back from this global leadership position. so you can portray this vast majority of americans and somehow being anti american, it makes 0 sense whatsoever. well, going along with that idea of anti american or pro russian would have you is,
7:11 pm
are to actually be accused of being pro russian or just anti american. they're not mutually exclusive, and one doesn't naturally make the other well, there are, they're accusing of the rti of representing a pro russia view as if the u. s. media, as you put it earlier in its entirety of us. mainstream media represents the pro u. s. government, you not us, us government view, and all of the u. s. propaganda stations voice america, r f e r l, they all are virtually identical. they're like problems in supporting the u. s. government position. so again, it's projection. the u. s. is projecting onto our t, which its own us media, both mainstream and government media possess. so any year where the us government is falling behind the national polls and it pull out of afghanistan, has been heavily criticized by media worldwide. is it surprising that it has
7:12 pm
decided to criticize channels it deems negative in its coverage? well, that's why i find a very anti american, this whole idea that americans are only allowed to, to consume. one perspective in the media is deeply, deeply anti american. it's deeply anti pluralist and it just reflects the kind of circular thinking within the state department. they have no clue that the vast majority of americans can't stand american foreign policy. and so what is their, what is their, what is their conclusion? well, should we change our policy? no, let's don't let them watch things. the challenge, their perspective, the challenge, their narratives. and that's a real problem and it really is the state department behaving like something you'd expect from a totalitarian state in the fifty's and sixty's. now you brought the state department where on the eve of some of the very important talks, and i always say that news does not happen to the vacuum. is it a coincidence that such a report comes out ahead of important security talks between russian, the u. s. no,
7:13 pm
it's very infant tile, but it's classic us government. they always want to drop a stink bomb in advance with any condom negotiations, it's just their way of putting up a middle finger. and again, it's pure i'll, it's infant tile, but it really is to be expected. you know, in these circumstances. well, is this not just for their effort by the us to ratchet up the tension on russian, in an effort to pressure it into solving the ukraine situation? you know, it's just another descent into irrelevant since you're on the part of the us. you know, the funny part is one of their big beefs about our tiers to lex transparency. but in the state department's own report, it's folks the atlantic council as one of its main sources without revealing that the atlantic council is funded by nato, funded by the state department and funded by the us government. so in their own report criticizing our tea for lack of transparency and they themselves are
7:14 pm
absolutely anti transparent about their sources of information. how's that for ira? it certainly is in interesting, a way to look at things that's for sure, daniel mc, adams. i was supposed to have your executive director at the ron paul institute. thanks for being with us here in our international. thank you right now. criminal negligence. that is how russia's foreign ministry spokeswoman has described. western media continuing to insist that moscow is about to invade ukraine, despite a lack of evidence and consistent denials from the kremlin. 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 or the obligations of western countries to the indivisibility of security. it is, if they did not know anything about the provocations of the key of regime and washington support, what is this holy simplicity or in permissible neva t. i think it's criminal negligence. well, that media hysteria that maria is a har of mentioned there has spread across the west like wildfire over the past
7:15 pm
several months. and bite him seems to be just as captivated by this idea of some sort of russian invasion as his friends in the western media are who seem to be in lock step with nato. at his 2nd major press conference since taking office, he said that a lot of prudent is still calculating. he's still waiting for his moments to take some sort of military action. and when does he think this invasion will be? well, with all of the might of the us intelligence services at binds disposal, he seems to think that it all hinges on putting, having a bad morning one day. the only thing conference is that decision is totally solely completely decision. nobody else are going to make that decision known. oscar impacted this. he's making that decision. he and i suspect it matters which side of the bed he gets up on the morning as to exactly what he's
7:16 pm
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 nato countries in eastern europe. so, and that was all echoed by a number of republican lawmakers who said that biden should give prudent a bloody nose if he 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 with what is going on. what's the word from russia? while these accusations of an eminence, 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,
7:17 pm
russia is not going to attack in the practice of moving troops on our own soil is a sovereign right. recall for an end to the exterior, so as not to pile on tensions around the down this problem. and most importantly not to push hot has in key of towards new provocations. now to make the whole situation even more tense intelligence services from the self proclaimed done yet the people's republic have said that ukraine is actually planning to attack and sabotage key points along the point. the front line, the line of conflict between a key of controlled territory and don boss and ukraine. so far there has not been any comment from kiev on these developments. but this combined with the west's attempt to stoke hysteria around and the legit russian attack. i mean, they're not doing anything for the escalations a conflict. there is a heart of a noted that by contrast, the west continues to send weapons to give a nato plans to deploy arms near russia's borders and then us plans to ship $200000000.00 worth of missiles, ammunition,
7:18 pm
and other equipment to ukraine in the coming days with similar plans from allies. the escalation efforts in ukraine bring in more lethal weapons, k airforce thought if the key, if within the 7 lodge military aircraft fly filled with empty tank weapons on bull, 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. we got
7:19 pm
reactions from former british ambassadors, craig murray, and peter ford, believe the saber rattling is politically beneficial for western leaders. this thing deserves course that isn't going to be a russian invasion. this is a sauce concocted. i said nothing. and do united kingdom, you have a government in deep trouble and very unpopular. you have the same of joe biden. joe biden is plumbing debts, one popularity, but notice lever. plumb before accept. the donald trump so fond his jackson sabre, that name, war mongering is always something which politicians turn to and which generally they can, they can rely on their media to, to deflect and take up. so we're seeing this doesn't phobic war mongering propaganda. largely i think there's a distraction from the internal weakness of these key western government. i'm afraid to close at the moment is not thinking about long term consequences. they're
7:20 pm
. ready thinking today, tomorrow, no further than next week, when johnson may hope that the crisis may be over in the meanwhile, and his internet to ramp up or to dry up the temperature, which is exactly what was done by announcing yesterday, sending new reference to ukraine. meanwhile, russian foreign ministers ok, lab, ralph has arrived in geneva for upcoming talks with the u. s. secretary of state anthony blink, and the meeting of the 2 ministers is scheduled for friday. love and blinking are expected to discuss the security guarantees between russia and the u. s. terrorists from islamic state, also known as dash, have attacked a prison in northern syria,
7:21 pm
run by kritisha militia in an effort to release those inside to car bama blast have been reported. gunfire has been heard and several inmates are understood to have been killed. critics authorities have confirmed that the attack happened, but have not specified how many prisoners escaped local media reports around 20 detainees have already fled with authorities on the lookout for them. correspondent mohammed ali reports from sir. the incident happened when a huge blast was heard around the way on prison, which is also known as a lesson offer than a government here in syria, which turned out to be an attack by a sleeper sofa, the ice using a car bomb. they tried to attack the prison classes were reported over there between to dash terrorist attacking from the outside and the guards of the present affiliated of course, would be so called through the democrats care forces. also the reports or they're
7:22 pm
coming out of that area to just that project. from the u. s. a coalition carried out sorties over the area over there, and also choppers were engaged and open gunfire around in the vicinity of the prison. according to some curtis media outlets about 20 dashed prisoners were able to escape. and according to the coordination and military operation center of the tourism aquatic forces, they said that currently engaged in operation to retake control entirely of the prison. also, search operation are currently underway and the neighborhoods around and wait on and then has like in order to attract those who escape ah, well, despite the appalling ongoing consequences of the u. s. withdrawal from afghanistan, including humanitarian catastrophe, joe biden has insisted he has absolutely nothing to be sorry for. there is no way
7:23 pm
to get out of afghanistan after 20 years, easily, not possible, no matter when you did it. and i make no apologies when i didn't. meanwhile, newly g classified footage shows the seconds before one of the most disturbing moments of august pull out as a u. s. draw mistakenly kills 10 couple citizens. now most of them were children. you can see children walking around and playing on the street as the pentagon prepares to strike and this is the moment of the blast as a civilian can be seen crossing the road while the missile was fired. there are growing questions about accountability for that strike despite issuing an official apology. dependent on maintains that no one will be punished for the deadly mistake with defense spokesperson john kirby, claiming that there is not enough evidence of personal accountability. the national coordinator for the anti war answer coalition says military chiefs think that they
7:24 pm
are above the law. the young child just beat 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, 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. 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 dine is done on the afghan site, there's no political liability in washington or in the united states. that's the
7:25 pm
logic of a criminal war and war crimes in a criminal war. and for more on the consequences of the us war on terror, you can head to r t dot com. there you can find and comment on our special project. on heard voices where we speak to those on the ground, hit my america's war in afghanistan. in an exclusive interview with rti, iran's president has said that he wants a group of nations free of us control. the comments come amid heightened detentions with washington over nuclear talks, with iran or cheese mcguffey, i've outlines the key points that were rest. this interview was the iranian president's 1st such interview to, to foreign press, or we were fortunate as it went on for a while. the better part of a now and there was 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,
7:26 pm
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 us, the iranian president, why, by 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. solar 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. it is these countries that want to be independent, but being attacked by their rival. so the americans don't want independent countries. we oppose american domination. 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 that its own course in infancy. and that is what we have seen with syria, with libya, with,
7:27 pm
with other nations you. i also asked him about cyber crime about the constant accusations against iran, of conducting cyber attacks against other nations cyber espionage, to which the radiant president replied, well 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 targeted by foreign cyberattacks, which drew no condemnation from the international community. he also, he also spoke about his ties, the country's ties, china for example. and i also asked him about a recent video where the radian military was seen conducting a mock bulk attack against donald trump. this is all tied into the mud the killing of cassim. so lay mani and iranian commander who went to great lengths to combat
7:28 pm
isis in the middle east. you forgot, i live in the castle. silly mani and his associates were heroes in the fight against terrorism in iraq. and they were killed by someone once the oppressed it to be seen as being oppressed and the oppressed to be seen as being the oppressor. people understand that they know who is committing oppression in the world. and what the irradiance had to say is that there must be responsibility. this is a matter of principle for them that an international investigation must be launched on donald trump must answer for that killing in court. 31 and a half minutes. that's what i will be back with. another phone, fresh lecture. new stay with us. is our international ah ah ah
7:29 pm
ah ah . mm. if anybody's been trapped in an elevator, 20 minutes could be a 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. the sense of sensory deprivation. i
7:30 pm
think about that if your life 20 minutes about an hour, not at all. yeah, in the intercom is nothing i was trying to get you out because keeping you it is your communication. ah, and i think systems who ah . ready a more of the building mm . more on turn begins with me, but it does not in there. it will not end until every terrorist group a global reach.
