we're joining me now via skype from berlin is europe for big york is a senior fellow and director for central and eastern europe at the german marshall fund of the united states really good to talk to you so the u.s. keeps imposing sanctions poland has issued its own penalties i mean is there anything that would make the change its mind when it comes to russia being such a great energy. i think we have to step back a little bit on this question because if you see the situation from germany. from the perspective of the german government and also german business then russia and previously the soviet union have always been very reliable and the 2 party going back almost half a century or so from that sense germany is receiving very rationally and pursuing a very strong energy partnership with with russia what the german debate's tends to fade out however is that russia also moves this energy as a political weapon against its neighbor as accounts of apartness and this is a point that simply underestimated here in germany for as long as. the country and its debates decouples economic and e

joining me now by skype from san francisco are the cohosts of thedatable podcast.ladies, thank you for joining us. tell us about this mini dating experiment, why you decided run it? >> priya, gets pretty j because we talk about dealbreaker so much on our this year said a dealbreaker for me is dating someone of opposing political beliefs, so we thought that's a very strong statement. let's put that to the test, let's set up a blind dating experiment with two people who have opposingpolitical beliefs , to see if romance can develop from that. so we reached out to facebook groups, our own community, ou own network, as well as we went out there on social media to sebewho would brave enough to partake. >> and you did eventually find two daters, kiki d tom. julie, tell us who they are, something about their backgrounds, and why you selected them. >> first and foremost, they were both single. they are in their 30s in new york city, and kiki is more liberal, voting for biden, where tom is a registered publican and either ting for trump or jo jorgensen,d the reason why we p

american political development and the trump presidency he joins us from milwaukee in wisconsin by skype thanks very much indeed for being with us so what's your 'd take so far on what's happened in the last few hours what do you think this is heading. well i mean i think that if you look at wisconsin anyway the outcome is not necessary or really so surprising i think the polls in wisconsin a variety of other states are vastly over projected by then support in part because much from support is concentrated among people who are predisposed to not answer phone calls or response to polls and so i think that there was always going to be some overshooting there i think what you see here is that trump has really done something pretty important politically which is consolidate a lot of rural america that was even 1214 years ago up for grabs a between the 2 parties he has however lost paper in the suburbs the suburbs at least around milwaukee trump really underperforms on the other hand and democrats have a real issue in some places out in wisconsin turn out in game county which is where the cap

or to tell se skype phone. but the third area was lie sense chure. and 49-50 states have loosened their requirements so you can practice across state lines. i'm in the boston area in eastern massachusetts. if you happen to come visit me. let's say you live in new hampshire, and you came and visit me in the office. and we wanted to do a follow-up while you were in your home, we could don't that before because i wasn't licensed in the state of new hampshire. but now we do that. i think it's those three areas that were a highlight. kim ber:ly president trump thought that a lot of the changes might become permanent. we heard administrator on the centers for medicaid and medicare services stay the same. if you were to look at the landscape what are the important factors that need to remain in a post pandemic era. >> yeah, thank you for asking. when i testified in front of the senate health committee and there was really strong bipartisan support for this. but we're very helpful. but to be specific to answer your question, number one, we ave the originatti

he joins us now via skype from london. so 1st the central bank governor was fired then early on, son in law stepped down as finance minister. that was a bit of a shock. what do you make of it all? i think the key word this year views, that is shock best. how it came across in the forks market as well. because knew it was really expecting this particular move. however, the important and the key element to put this is that yes i do go on. if given a free hold to center bonds and that means central banks can really can play with the interest rates order to increase the inflation. that is the key, i mean, and because of that anticipation in the market days that perhaps in the coming days they will event at 98, we could see an interest rate increase in turkey by good basis point and big tears up. that particular reason, we've seen this massive say it is the that it, is this an admission that the spending $100000000000.00 to support them, the lira was, was a costly mistake and has it got anything to do with joe biden's victory i

speak to aaron call now he's director of debate at the university of michigan and joins us live via skype 1 from the city of navi thank you so much for joining us here on al-jazeera so whether it's by twitter or in his speech or really he's been insinuating it for weeks and months so we do see the president casting doubt on the validity of the results where do you think this is going to end up. i think it's going to be a lot of noise but i don't think there's going to be a big tangible impact given the likely margin in some of the states you mentioned wisconsin michigan pennsylvania will be potentially tens of thousands of votes and not be able to be overcome by a recount or things like that but clearly there are going to be litigation and in all the eyes of the nation the world will be on a roll those states for at least the coming weeks because it's worth reminding our international audience that this is more like 50 different elections as opposed to one generally a national election like in other places so when come talks about going to the supreme court is that accurate to what all of

they could use zoom, google hangouts, skype to do these calls. you could use a telephone.hatuld talk about whether is a good idea but the third area was licensure and 39 out of 50 states have listened there licensure requirements -- loosened their licensure requirements. i am in the boston area. if you happen to come visit me, let's say you live in new hampshire, which is about a half north, a half hour drive and we wanted to do a follow-up while you were in your home, we could new that -- we cannot do that before but now weekend because of these relaxations. those three areas are the highlights. kimberly: this week, president trump said that he thought a lot of the telemedicine changes that the administration had made might become permanent. fromard an administrator the centers of medicare and medicaid services say the same. if you were to look at the landscape, which are the most important factors that need to remain in a put pandemic america? dr. kvedar: thank you for asking. when i mentioned i testified in front of the senate, there was a strong bipartisan support for

skype is very secure. whatsapp is very secure. many are very secure. think the likelihood, and this is a port for patients, people watching this, the likelihood that you would get your information compromised during a veil call is infinitesimally low, very small. -- during a video call. it is very unlikely, so that is one thing. and as we move forward we will get back to a state of normalcy where we are demanding those technologies are secure before we use them. so we are headed in that direction again, i am sure. with regard to your question clinician, making sure the clinician is in a private place, we are training people as fast as we can. one of the activities i'm involved with is the association of american medical colleges, creating training competencies for residences and -- residencies and medical students to teach them a number of things about me a good teleheath provider. what is being, keeping your video chat private from the point of view of where you have it. so we are getting that word out as fast as we can. are not too many people foolis

he joins us now live via skype from london. john, you face a pretty uphill challenge, a number of firms have already started looking for small offices as they adjust their office requirements to cater to the number of people who are working from home right now. how do you counter that? thank you, adrian. i mean, this is you're right when it comes to infectious diseases, the advantages of cities that density of talent, the global connectedness actually become vulnerabilities. and in the case of london, a whole series of challenges that predated cove it. 'd the rising cost of living. 'd some of the infrastructure, the inequalities where. 'd we just became that much more pressing and that workplaces are a great example. we saw pretty much overnight with the emergence of the. 'd 10 demick, most of financial and professional services, switched to remote working, something we thought would take 5 years. and now as we look forward, some of those changes are, are looking more and more permanent. certainly there's a different demand for

adolfo franco is a republican strategist and the lawyer who joins us on skype from washington d.c. thank you for your time mr franco this seems to be good to have you this is a discrepancy between what republicans and even donald trump's own campaign team is saying and donald trump himself may say they only want votes counted that should be counted he's alleging for a lot and talking about stolen elections where do you stand. well i think they're one in the same except the president is is really speaking in layman's terms and i know this for a fact from the campaign we're getting stand is the following the rules were changed and we believe on constitutionally and in pennsylvania and there are 4 votes that may be counted after 8 pm november 3rd that we're not postmarked by that day might be be are in fact being counted and could be counted and that would be a problem and then the other is in clark county and in other places where we know that a number of ballots up and sent out to an eligible voters who voted up or out of state we have that substantiated for the pleadings so i know

so let's talk to scott evans he's the chief executive officer of recon africa and joins us via skype from dallas scott welcome to the program let me ask you 1st with all the meticulous work that goes into the search for oil how much on and gas is that offshore and onshore in the media where's the things going to have to be on the show where we're really focused on the on shore so i can answer this question for here we're working which is the conveying coalition so this is a brand new set of a television recently discovered 8750000 acres northeast and maybe a in northwest plot in a camera that we see over the 3rd party experts a 100000000000 barrels that's been generated now that will all be recoverable but we see it to be potentially the large key giant petroleum oil field sizes so significant resource and scott how does that then compare to neighboring countries and the rest of africa. well i think that it would you know again really exploration fish or there's uncertainty here but i think it would be comparable to some of the fields of scale say you know when you go or next door. s

and host of the jimmy door show thinks it will in fact be quite the opposite and he joins me now via skype from his studio in california jamie thanks so much for coming on on this important day. angela davis that icon of resistance no i'm chomsky i know you know you've read so much of his work they say american voters need to vote for joe biden to kick trump out you don't agree. well joe biden as a worse record than donald trump joe biden was for the iraq war joe biden did libya joe biden did it. a genocide in yemen joe biden prosecuted whistleblowers joe biden kicked 5100000 families out of their house in a similar economic decline when he had the chance joe biden open the arctic to drilling twice whenever a shot i'll ask joe biden took us from 2 wars to 7 joe biden made the banks bigger i get joe biden bill cages that they're putting immigrant children in joe biden gas them at the border joe biden bombed muslim countries for 8 years straight which is why there is a muslim record refugee crisis at the airports and the only time the american people cared is when donald trump banned muslims

he joins me now via skype from cambridge. james, thanks so much for coming on. millions of people are in lockdown because of covert . many of them desperately worried. their mental health issues being considered by the authorities. tell me how this book in a way that may suggest that they shouldn't worry so much given that work is actually a relatively new phenomenon in the us. yet it's often easier to look at the world in really long time scales. and, you know, certainly at the moment where, oh, absolutely swept up in the immediacy of this pandemic. and, you know, we are one of the 1st generations through all of human history that actually hasn't had to do you really serious illness. and to be confronted by our own mortality. so this is really absorbed in the eaton. you know, what i've tried to do in this book is really stark. a far longer picture to understand these broad currents that are not just shaping work, but really human life. and work is an incredible prison through which to see it and taking that much longer perspective invites us and puts it puts a

for instance, skype is very secure. what's app is very secure. there are many of them and so i think the likelihood and this is important for patients watching this, the likelihood that you would get your information compromised during a video call is infinitesimally low. it is very small. could happen? yes and it's very unlikely so that is one thing. again, as we move forward we will get back to a state of normalcy where we are demanding that technologies are secure before we use them and so we are headed in that direction again, i'm sure. with regards to your question about the clinician and making sure the clinician is in a private place we are training people as fast as we can. one of the other activities i'm involved with is the association of american medical colleges creating training competency for residents and metals go student so we can teach a whole number of things about being a good telehealth provider and one of them is being or keeping your video chat private from the point of view from where you have it. we are getting that word

via skype. thank you for your time. what was your reaction to the news from astra zeneca about this vaccine, particularly in terms of what it will mean for developing countries. thank you. thank you for having me. indeed, i was elated to hear us just because position in the market and what we have been able to offer along with modernize our think it's good news for the entire global community. i mean with 55000000 cases and 1300000 that's a lot of hope is pinned on the vaccine as a solution. but there are concerns, as you rightly stated, that poor emissions can be left behind. and we have already seen where high income countries have been pushing these nooses in advance. in fact, it is assumed it's over the world. $6400000000.00 is a potential scenes coverage import. another $3200000000.00 is on the negotiations or resumed in some form. i don't want to situation where p. is the most, the least gets in front of the queue and we are concerned there's several countries should be concerned about it who plead with some in to

people could use facetime, zoom, google hangout, they could use skype to do these calls. they could use a telephone. so we could talk about whether that's a good agenda but third party was licensure. 49th out of 5050 states now have loosened the licensure requirements so that you can practice across state lines. i am in the boston area, in eastern massachusetts. if you happen to come visit me, let's say you live in new hampshire which is about half hour drive north, and you came to visit me in office and wanted to do a follow-up while you are in your home, we couldn't do that before because i was a license in new hampshire but now we can do that because of these relaxations. it's really those three ares i think are the highlight. >> this week president trump said he thought a lot of the telemedicine changes that the administration have made might become permanent. we heard administrator verma from the centers for medicare and medicaid services say the same. if you were to look at the landscape which to think of the most important factors that need to remain in a post-pand

via skype sir thank you so much for joining us here lots to talk about of course the full results haven't yet come but 1st of all if i can get your reaction on this breaking news that we've had in the past 20 minutes or so that donald trump is filed a lawsuit in michigan to stop the counting of ballots in the presidential election to gain meaningful access as they say what do you make of that development well it's not surprising donald trump is the type of person who wants to win at all cost and in this case is the cost of our democracy here in the united states and there's a major inconsistency in what they're asking for they want to stop people from voting or words used to stop the counting of votes in michigan and wisconsin but continue the counting of votes in arizona and nevada where they think that they will close the margin which i don't think is going to happen i think the margin in arizona but look arch. i think but is up for grabs but i still believe their job i'm going on this race in my opinion is pretty much decided i think the people have spoken i think that joe biden. would

he joins us via skype from there. very good to have you with us, simon. on the news for we talk about the concerns about inequality and access to this vaccine. let's talk about the encouraging news today from pfizer. there were questions last week, i know when, when they announced that they had 90 percent and 90 percent efficacy rate about how the vaccine would be effective on older people and on people who are from minority backgrounds. do you think that these concerns with this latest announcement today have now been laid to rest? yes, they've largely been armed. they always were going to be given time that the announcement that they think it's even more effective is welcome. but that we should remember that that's in a few 1000. i expect when we get into vaccinating tens of millions of people, even hundreds of millions of people. but the numbers there will change, but not substantially. i mean, it will still be a very effective vaccine. the big question behind it really is how long will its effect last that was going to, you know, that would point the

he joins us on skype from london. good to have you with us. so about this lady think we're seeing in nigeria does it indicate to you if it is responsible, as it seems, a lot of people are drawing that conclusion from the type of attack it would indicate the bucket is far from defeated as officials have claimed in the past sure. the identity of the target, so yes, all the hallmarks of a book, i don't until it is the prime suspect. and maybe most supposition that we might see a clip of what tomorrow and you are right about this. if this is facebook, i don't, it is very likely to be it is and that's ip mind that what we're continuously, emulated. red x., which any communities in nigeria government keeps claiming that it is but and has on ground continuous contradict the government's claim that i don't feel that what i say also say about security forces and their ability to control the situation. are they losing control of the duty forces are obviously losing this war and this particular attack and others we have seen in the last 8 months also wen

she joins us via skype from los angeles. madame, thank you so much for joining us year on al-jazeera. how encouraging have you found this news coming out of the pharmaceutical firm that their early results from the vaccine show? 94.5 percent efficiency. yeah, so much so thank you so much 1st of all for having me. it's certainly very hopeful news. the fact that they have been able to crank out this vaccine so quickly is truly remarkable. i do though, as a clinician and as a medical professional do want to sort of keep this in perspective. everyone is throwing out the 94 percent number, which again is good news. but as in any type of pharmaceutical, any type of therapeutic, we have to sort of keep this in perspective, which is that this is early interim analysis from the company who developed it. and so we have to look at this sort of critically. we have to realize that this is still a smaller sample size, right? and they're of course going to have biased published in their own data. so to say that it's truly 94 percent effect

he joins us live from ethiopia, a couple of out of about skype. it's very difficult as we know to get information out of the region. but there is this mystery about where the forces have gone the number in the 10s of thousands. what's your best guess? my best guess is, you know, there's an assumption that what happened in sri lanka was a time when tigers in 2011 would happen in the field. we hope will have, but the tepee are left as a strong as a strong, loyal army. but i mean, you have to go back to history to see how effective they were in defeating mengistu, haile, mariam 3540 years ago. and i'm not surprised, you know, between declared by the government and all of a sudden it continues just like iraq mission accomplished. it never stopped, and i would assume they would try to make a comeback and make sure that their voice is heard and is included. and they're not just wiped out from the political map, which they controlled for almost 30 years. it seems as if it's a fairly straightforward takeover of mecca. do we know anything about casualties?

paolo joins us by skype. now 1st of all, can i ask about your thoughts on the footage of this attack? tireder on. so it's very brutal weather b.c. it's and it looks like very much what we saw in the case of george floyd. it's basically some people here in brazil were calling it a lean cheating death. so it was just basically choose security guards. one of the next actually also police men, if they're just strangling black men or 2 year old black male, all bad and it sold very violent and very brutal. and also there are some people, few minutes and looking at it. but no one actually stopped the this case to happen and it's happening inside a big supermarket. here. courts are lagging brazil, and these are just a very brutal to see very clear case of racial violence. again, the black person happening here in brazil given a powerful effect of the video and the fact that this, as you say, it was bush clan and it was captured on camera. you mentioned that george floyd on wondering, is it your feeling that this coul

iran, he joins us live by skype from tehran, mysie a very 1st stop it. as we've just seen, these kind of incidents have happened before. tell us more about your reaction to what's happened. nice to be with you nic, best. actually, according to the international law, these assassination is considered while ation of international human rights law. irrespective of the targets, it sees an extra judicial killing and it is always condemned by the international community and international law. and mr. factory's other was a highly respected in gene you're and scientist, a university professor working with both civil and military industries. as many other scientists are doing the same around the world, so he's assassination or to so called targeted killing cannot be considered as a defensive action, as he did not hold any active operational military commands. therefore, it is an act of terror and it is condemned. obviously, the iranian foreign minister has pointed the finger at israel. he has no direct evidence at this point. does that suggestion have residents t

speaking to us on a rather unwieldy skype connection that from washington d.c. . thanks so much for joining us again on out of the earth, and thank you so much. well, now a u.n. special representative visiting cata has urged countries blockading the gulf state to immediately withdraw their restrictions. alina, do han is the special rapporteur on unilateral coercive measures and human rights, back in 2017. the u.a.e., saudi arabia, bahrain, and egypt all imposed a boycott on cata, accusing it of supporting terrorism vehemently denies all allegations earch. the kingdom of saudi are up via the united arab emirates, the kingdom of bihari, and they are approved probably of to immediately withdraw all sanctions mattias into establishing restrictions on freedom of expression. more of them and access to broker to trade. but are its quarter non-tariff matches include ensues, which prevents financing the purchase of mattson medical equipment, food, other essential goods follow people live in qatar in violation of international legal standards. still ahead few here on al-jaz
