High in my meaning the i am a director minuets im trained up top man expensive place to be with you. Thanks for joining us in peru yeah. The record over. For your free europe where you live in theory based in profit. Organization will cost you 23. 00 contests and in 2 months. Not about how i am and i dont mind sharing when i am facing injury there are sadly for you we who are team on the shelf are interested in joining us and so perky siddhis up here with whats going on with turkmenistan for people who dont know whats the government there like it why is it so low on the ranking of freedom of information. All time greatest amundsens. Good since good thing during the famine so its always been Close Friends when it comes to human rights when it comes of freedom of speech and. When it comes to democracy. As. Years passed by its only gotten worse rather than getting bad. A lot of criticism from the International Community and International Organizations especially in the last 56 years it got so. Its a. Photo or worse car to be the worst contraire in the world with guns to freedom of speech is not a race that you want to when theres a for. It is mos. Eisley soon work or it doesnt ball or the leader or for. She. If she doesnt who doesnt know does this kind of criticism or ready. This kind of over. Dinner will why is it one why is it that way in turkmenistan. You see for right now i can smell it clips talk about the present president so. As we know he the only is more in his family has 4 face charges and he was raised like conduct so he doesnt hear anybody or anything so for example although lots of people asking me why he doesnt care about people while weve had happened hes only just mad at least he pretends to be a muslim right now its provided by romney everywhere every people celebrated but in reality he does not have god in his soul so for example you could throw away if you are and how to get horses which is that then national hurry to get stuff man is done and good instead of course it so we can consider a way that the is no really just man has nothing to do with the people he only cares if himself so thats why it would just be just a snap and youre doing your talking about president mohamed operate yes. Im sorry but what if i make money on them so thats why he doesnt care about anything he cared only about his person. Than and but there are elections its is that right i knew about the 3rd there are elections in turkmenistan we need yeah yeah there are action in turkmenistan or yet for it. Its. In the book and you need to question john i was just referring to the fact that he is president and that there are elections but you know how free and clear are those elections when the end of the being a poem by International Community but there are elections are being held in germany so there whenever. Observer is full of go observers election observers one injury and equating the process with history and Fair Elections so that its me who wins who always who have a new elections. Its going to take our audience here to twitter where this says turk took medical professionals d have said that authorities in turkmenistan are concealing information about the spread of covert 192 doctors died killing 19 hospital in the capital and new cases are reported in every region whos recording those cases how are these cases being reported on the front. Yes so sue me includes the money during speciation around the corner starting from january interim and stand we are. Just rivers there innocent or you know knowledge and science news definition on the go he indeed german language and the moment. We have over 100 articles and blog posts providing answers to questions from the public on the koreans this is just going on court it so when we see that we will not only provide the information we also. Asking. Them to remain standing in the International Community to doing dangerous in the Society Construction waste and from going to danger any information on court so we can have an informed discussion so manteo question. Then there is no i sure danger on call it there is just some piece of information coming from beijing so when between International Community and the ministry of Foreign Affairs the asking is for the children to know and show him for it and that includes of course injections a go he said desk and we dont have we dont have any official numbers and statistics but there are several initiates a launch. That i ask for a community is trying to start out only account of debts and in sessions both from korea the new money and internet and the online websites that extract and then ask the public the engine not track me and really. The interviewee the line information coming from about me and this is that i have to say that this is something very new not mean fishing has been traced. This way before any interest by Civil Society so this is something something very good useful and exciting. What kind of information are you seeing come out of turkmenistan about tippett right now. Or will we have a very last network of. Respondents. Contributors in the country they have. Some contacts in the Health Care System i can tell you one thing 2 of all correspondents on track to a part of the contract with over 1000 because they were not has a dish showing symptoms of 90 so we came very close through. Close to home for missouris over a year for europe so. Every day we get. A lot of movie reports about people being hospitalized in dozens and all spitballs the overflow with quote i can again i should say it with patients showing overnight symptoms of those are you seeing any video coming out of the country on that for yes yes we would receive videos but unfortunately most of those videos we cannot. Or for the safety of our correspondents and contributors because in 2 minutes time who might get to jail for a better life it is a prison cell but some of the. Videos we are able to publish. Doctoring it a little bit altering the. Point so that the surveillance cameras can not employ correspondents and in one of the recent videos that were published just 2 days ago ready you can see hundreds of fresh graves that appear in 10 days prior to shooting of the media. If you know one of the senators outside of. Bush most of those. People who are the birds in that little miss im afraid theyre being very sick plastic sacks like body bags. And sewer d grave diggers agree digger told our friends that theyre working as a conveyor in a plot they just dig. A grave and then they you start digging another grave right away because. People are coming and coming like a tree you know for the. Funeral processions and those people that you see in the media are there not just want one funeral there are several because the number of people being allowed to cemeteries for each. Funeral is very limited like all the close relatives are a lot and those people that are dying in the hospitals are not allowed to the bodies of a lot to be taken home but they are being taken from hordes to cemeteries directly. So this this on im sure is yes sorry im going to bring in a tweet here this is from jake turkey says officials in turkmenistan continue to insist that airborne dust not coronavirus is the cause for alarm. At the gate now like im just imagining how much control the state must have over information in order to put out Something Like it is just dust in the air not not coronavirus he talked to me about that they. Sure a mistake tries to control all information premie and in coming out from a country my dinner we. Could need was. Its not official even literally found in turkmenistan and the government has to recognize they can wire serve the country but according to the same terms and according to the condition of the people that are in the country we cant say that yes coronavirus came to manifest and in order to present it doesnt believe in space its surrounded by neighbors and as you mentioned at the very beginning every country has coronavirus so all that talk about dust is just. Make for the International Community and to make people Wearing Masks so at least this is one of their steps that truckman government to since i think begin middle of july i guess so. Close to the world her initial visit so we can say that its just a common rain of layer of their reputation. So youre referring to about a 10 day visit from officials from the World Health Organization that they didnt come out now right say that turkmenistan had over 1000. 00 there but that the country should act as if it has their it right yes yes of course bad the World Health Organization they have rights to clean a product all they have really stated what kind of hospital they will visit and government has done been their best to prepare that hospital they get rid of the patients that had any kind of symptoms of any money 6 or any kind of other symptoms may show them what their hospital lets play and you know why risk nothing and of course on the one hand i can understand that this organization in the members of that commission they cannot draw their own writing to rushing into every house in trying to test people who are in a virus you see but the problem is deeper because at the hospital there was no normal equipment no medicine and the doctor they do not know how to treat this virus thats the big problem because they do not have that special protocols to treat people they do not have enough oxygen and we let the one of the main part of the treatment they do not have more more machines for educational ventilation and. So we see its a problem and truckman people die every day you know ok so we have a question this is from someone in our duty to audience says tell us a bit about the Public Service system in turkmenistan i bet i think this for you it says its common predict 8 or ships to have a great Social Security system thats how things work in north korea at least of what this person says and you too. Is it so in turkmenistan. It can i just call me briefly on the final. Yes i would just try out the magnitude of very question so i knew one way to look at it this narrative that its this is this. Oh of course ministry of health is not calling you starting all this is happening and you need to store your farm and also learning from arnold see if its also its also. An example of doublethink in court in dissonance patterns that. Person. Has to use as a defense mechanism to live in germany. Meaning all this this suffering is happening around me and i wake up people and i and my family members are getting safe. And they something is happening. International Community Tells me that there is no concern gay says of course how do i do. With. Logic and reason so this. Kind of the brain this. Narrative with reality so is im trying to see that there. Were people things are happening in the society. Its a double thing only a dissonance and also learned helplessness. That the public. Just does not believe in its all in. Strength and power to. And that we are in this on our own and we have to teach individual responsibility so it is often out of government in the ministries but its also if you are not usually it is normal united response. Passion your house. You have to do something as a as a community so thats just my commentary on. You know all this and i dont have a just sick about to be mr community and i want to bring in our community we have a video comment from rachel didnt this is shes from Human Rights Watch has got out now turkmen government needs to take urgent measures to address the Public Health crisis but pick up the country is today 1st it needs to stop its reckless to mile of the existence of covert 1000 cases in the country it needs to stop its repressive policies of controlling and paul for flying information to make testing immediately and widely available in an affordable way. To give you an idea of how tight the control on information is i want to take yours to my computer right now and show you from obama to here as we grow up with growing concern about the spread of copan 1000. 00 in 2 minutes the end and authorities remaining in denial about it. Are reportedly ordered to keep graves black so they grow in graveyards cannot be pictured be a satellite. Thats pretty intense attention to detail d n a moment is there pushback against it or a root is there pushback in the country against this kind of control. Yet when he cried means i dont think youre seeing all of that made of what will. In peru a kind of push back to do we see in the country where even around the world from expatriates. When it comes to the graves of something new that. You know. There were a couple more reports that reviewed for you. Over the last 2 weeks. Of this who call many of those bodies. All require that the family are up with this disease soo many degrees of us also goal. Conspicuousness also there they cannot be seen from satellite or people. Driving by cannot see that there are more fresh grates. Of course the country is. Doing everything they can do to suppress the free flow of information about over 1000 but its. Its. Its 21st century now. The authorities cannot suppress a flow for information between the people people talk for example this thing but d they require that we are in mosques and keeping. Social distancing people are asking them a question what will the social distancing have to do with with the evolution social distancing doesnt work so people already know that the government is playing the game of denial as they always do because. As we know its official it leaves in the era of happiness and might invest and nothing bad can happen in 2 months you can know in a show this also can have from. Nothing unfortunate can happen in 2 months we have another comment from our youtube audience this is from say hello so among at the same time far away in western world anyone who speaks up expresses freedom of speech against the current virus is blocked on facebook you tube and other social media platforms are panned out thats claimed them not sure is fully supported but the end i want to ask. Ive read recently there was a protest in the capital. Of like a 1000 people and that if thats true that would be the low large protest since turkmenistan broke away from the soviet republic im im curious also if thats true what kind of risk are those people taking to attend a protest like that soaring in Human Capital actually amount of capital the secret that i know about the problem just in d. C. Not in that. I had read that there was one actually by which i found startling and maybe that that thats not true have you have you heard that theres been any protest and i had heard about that now. No brought us inside the country because pride of people are sick and proud of people are taking care of those who are sick and i would like also to add that we are not we have talking about all the whatever people but there are also presented tremendous that and according to our sources there are 3. 35 reasoners in one of the minister and they cannot receive any medicine from their relatives everything is closed that means that most people they will die they will die from part of our because without help its impossible to write. And yes if were talking about the pros protest of course the government they were prosecuted the relative they will prosecuted the people who are taking were participating in that kind of protest in any kind of protest so but this protest are not in truck minister and they are a brooch ive got about a minute left here what what should be done here what can be done here. So i think that as you said gentlemen gentlemen some doesnt get covered all my International Media so were very grateful for a job writing providing this chance and there a chance so i do. Use this conversation to prevent future indians and deaths are happening tragic and. Dental a loss of human Life Insurance and lets talk about it how we can prevent future death and anybody can date action on this action not just your social media but for example if you dont need us jammed shut down interest and right now. Government officials you see a watching and im sure theyre watching this at the moment please allow the button to have access to society to eat correct information in the language the speaking german language please and also to. Access the internet start out to stop it there were going to leave it there with the people get back to Work Ministry and to be able to access scientifically correct information no matter what the government says like so many things in life to go to the grave digger who gets the final word and that seems to be happening down to the opposite letter there thank you all for joining us today and partially madeon to tell us youre going to be well.
