all andrew guests more than 4 and a half hours of lattimer putin taken all the questions and just 2 of us listening to him so that is a tough one to digest but we managed to go through it and now it is time for a good nice wrap up of everything that a lot of our putin was talking about so yes let's start with defense and all of that is of course intertwined with how russia gets along with the u.s. and now that america will have a new president that is very important something that is school that we heard from the russian leader in the last 30 minutes was that he admitted that the russians and the americans are currently in a new arms race now how's that for a statement from the russian leader that's definitely an important one. and went on to say that despite spending the last on defense a much smaller amounts of money than some nato members and washington in particular russia has already developed weapons systems that can outdo the missile defense. of. the american ministry of defense now besides this we understand that there should be reasons for this kind of state. affairs and a lot

press conference wrapped up we though the very selected very select pool of journalists here lattimer putin's residence we didn't allow the russian president we didn't let putin just leave so we continued asking our questions and he answered he answered all of them and that stretched out the media conference even more injuring that particular you know and game q. and a session so to speak he showed us his notes the ones he was taking during the whole event and there was a lot and normally these media conferences they don't just and now it means that the work there will be a lot of work done there will be a lot of phone calls a lot of discussions this and a lot of governors and oh well the people people in power in the regions they maybe aren't feeling too easy they because they know they will be getting a cool so we'll see what comes out out of this particular media conference. sure ok i thank you. dan of reporting on that a huge q. and a session that president putin held here today thank you. despite being overwhelmed by the high casualty rates in the pandemic sweden's parliament so kate a m

of russia but perhaps most importantly some journalists will be allowed into the residence of lattimer putin where he's working during the times of covert and one of my colleagues igor's dawn of is going to be there too hopefully he will get his chance to ask his question but we don't know yet what that's going to be that's something we are going to find out when the annual press conference starts in a bit of a different format but that's going to happen in about 3 hours and 40 minutes below i thought a bit of a tip off for me then. there will be covering it you in the team thank you. gender stereotypes behind a mental health crisis for young children is our next question to pose with a new report in the u.k. is claim that it's not only affecting primary education it's also destroying self-esteem but every parent hopes for their child and what educators hope for children in their class is that they will be free to achieve their potential yet what evidence shows is that we still limit our children based on the harmful tired gender stereotypes we meet and the princess education of ghosts and i

lattimer putin has congratulated joe biden on victory in the u.s. presidential election this comes after a majority of the electoral college across the united states cast their votes for biden as the winner the russian president had waited for that official confirmation of the when putin says that any contact with the new administration is welcome and that cooperation is in everybody's interest however president trump still insists that his legal challenge over alleged voter fraud will continue meanwhile the trumpet ministrations attorney general bill barr has resigned he previously said that there was no evidence of widespread election fraud archies. comments from new york. donald trump is still not conceding donald trump says he is the legitimate winner of the 2020 election you know it's not over we keep going and we're going to continue to go forward we have numerous local cases where you know in some of the states a good rig from the from us now there was a last ditch effort to try and to try and you know win the white house for trump in the sup

whether or not putin thought that russia was quote unquote all white and fluffy here is what lattimer putin had to say to that. yes we are peaceful and calm nato promised it wouldn't expanse of the east but didn't deliver on this we see an expansion we see nato infrastructure coming closer to our borders shouldn't we respond to this who quit the antiballistic missile treaty it wasn't ours so we have to invent brand new types of weapons to protect us from a possible threat but then our american colleagues left the i.n.f. treaty again not ours no it's our partners then they withdrew from the open skies treaty so what should we do leave everything as it is you're smart people so why do you think we are dumb. recently an investigation by belling caddick used russia and vladimir putin personally of using a military grade talks in so-called novi choke against a prominent opposition figure in russia elects in a valley so vladimir putin said that he believed that that particular investigation was part of a foreign game of essentially of a foreign intelligence operation against the russian governmen

taking questions pay attention to the speaker position right under the table specifically so that lattimer putin he is everything that he's being asked to christmas tree behind me as well a bit of a festive mood it doesn't have any smell though it's a fake one not a real one and over there you can see the chairs where journalists will be sitting us asking questions but you may have already noticed that there aren't that many cherish and it is true that only a select few have been allowed here to ask questions in person only after a strict quarantine but it doesn't mean that the rest of the country won't have a chance to ask their question and world to lattimer put most of him on these plasmas you can see footage from all major russian cities where hundreds of journalists are expected to come and well talk to the president and here are the pictures from a special pool center where ordinary citizens not journalists will be able well just to dial a few digits and ask to submit their question for the president yet another event in 2020 that we're looking forward to that's been somewhat spoiled by mr

playing around with them such corporation was promoted and backed by the russian president himself lattimer putin as he was giving his annual media conference just a couple of days ago which i i was there he spoke he spoke repeatedly about how the world shewed unite and how different producers of different vaccines they should cooperate more this is what he's been talking about it a lot and this time it has happened basically what he was pushing for here is what he had to say. i am glad to congratulate you on this significant event signing the memorandum of cooperation i'm convinced that this commitment to partnership can serve as a compelling example of how science and technology combine to protect the lives and safety of millions of people. so again it's not just some meaningless memorandum of understanding of something like that essentially the clinical trials the joint clinical trials have already begun and so we'll see how fast and what exactly will come out of this we also have this worrying news coming out of the u.k. of this new super infectious strain did the current vaccines work agains

an international corporation has been promoted and pushed for by the russian president himself lattimer putin so obviously good news for him and he is how he reacted to the announcement of this new agreement struck between mali and astra zeneca. i am glad to congratulate you on the significance of vent signing the memorandum of cooperation i'm convinced that this commitment partnership can serve as a compelling example of how science and technology combine to protect the lives and safety of millions of people but. now we've also heard about this new highly infectious corona virus strain in the u.k. and other countries already at this point how confident can we be that these vaccines that we already have will be able to protect against that well that's of course a very good point because a lot of people are on edge because of this latest revelation that the virus has mutated in the u.k. but thing is this particular type of the virus it's inherently prone to mutations so essentially there could be dozens of different strains of this corona virus infections and infection excuse me and it only de
