When tens of thousands marched towards local residents on police blocked a road in what looked like a scene from a war movie was filmed flying over the city in a helicopter wearing an ob fast together with his 15 year old son in combat gear than the president emerged from the helicopter carrying a rifle. Many Thanks Police who guarded him at the palace they told him they will stay with him until the bitter and. And end that might just have come a little closer. Platen how did the iraqi men. Care giles as a Senior Consulting fellow for the russia and Eurasia Program at the think tank Chatham House he says sundays protests have reinvigorated the Opposition Movement there have been tortures there have been apparent murders all intended to dissuade people from taking up the oppositions cause and in some cases from not agreeing to sign the falls election protocols confirming that both look at sugar so put that all together and yes it is impressive that this many people have come out once again today for all of this time russia has been watching and waiting to see which way the situation would develop but theres another angle to this which is disturbing as well which is in the stories that the president will question to his friend or together about external the russian against the us you saw him earlier getting off a helicopter with body armor and an Assault Rifle and in a ridiculous pantomime trying to suggest that the country is under attack all of this is exactly what russia does not want to hear and it provides a pretext for russia to step in should wish to look at is been pointing to the Western Region of grodno near the borders with poland and lithuania is what he says the the center of where nato and the west is trying to stir up unrest to unseat president and in fact to attack from outside now it just so happens thats exactly the scenario of a huge exercise military exercise with russia and belarus working together that we took place a few years ago calls up in 2017 where precisely that region was the site of these nato shenanigans and the response was for russia to send in troops to work with belarus to suppress that and then that escalated into a broader conflict if that kind of playing with fire by staring up this war rhetoric by look at sugar that we need to be watching out for now. An explosion as an Iranian Nuclear facility last month was an act of sabotage the conclusion of Irans Atomic Energy Organization but it did not reveal who was responsible a spokesman for the government says they will reveal the reason behind the blast in a tense facility in jus cause when it comes a day before the head of the uns atomic watchdog arrives in teheran hoping to get access to sites believed to be storing undeclared Nuclear Material or sebag as well from tehran and says that iran has sought suspicions of several incidents well this is the 1st time they were officially admitted that this was an act of sabotage when this incident took place in early july we were 1st told that it was an accident f. I had taken place then it was revealed that actually there was more damage than previously thought and then we were told that there was considerable damage and it could cause medium term delays for the production of advanced machines where iran said that they would compensate for any delays by creating more capacity now we dont know the exact details of this act of sabotage retold that will be released by Security Officials at the appropriate time now this incident did take place over a month ago but was preceded by an explosion east of the one near a military base and then there were several incidents fires that were a power plant and also factories which were a suspicions in the country now this isnt the 1st time iran facilities have been targeted in 2010 the stuxnet virus was discovered at the very same Nuclear Facility then the 10s Nuclear Facility which is thought to have caused considerable damage to Irans Nuclear program now no one admitted who was behind that but its largely thought that the United States and israel were behind that virus but the specific details of this upper target how it was carried out we still dont know to melody is the president of the National Iranian American Council he says there are several reasons why iran has chosen to release this information. I think the timing is whats most notable as this comes with the i. A. E. A. Director headed to iran looking to resolve some of these outstanding issues with iran and you have the sequence of events. At the u. N. Security council last week the United States being shut down in its efforts to snap back sanctions on iran and some very tough statements from europe and others and you how do you ron actually say ok were ready to result some of these difficulties with the i. A. E. A. Result some of these questions and now as the i. A. E. A. Chief hence to iran theyre saying our facilities are being sabotaged by to me it sounds like perhaps a form of leverage or a negotiating point as they try to work with the i. A. E. A. To sort out some of these lingering issues so i think the iranians are are trying to show that look they are paranoid there are legitimate concerns that they have about the security of these facilities and so as theyre granting access to that i for other facilities there is this paranoia and its need to deal with the fact that there are actors out there who do want to sabotage these facilities this also does give the iranians further incentive to bury their enrichment facilities underground which is one of the main can point of contention during the Nuclear Talks where iran agreed not to put its facilities in the in the underground fordo facility and so for iran this is actually an sent an incentive to further hide and bury its facilities that they are not exposed to these acts of sabotage you know as president has hailing of emergency Plasma Treatment for covert 19 as a breakthrough but here goes the food and Drug Administration given the go ahead accusing it of delaying drugs and vaccines for viruses the treatment he says possible all for covered patients to treat those still sick with the virus but theres no conclusive evidence of its benefits. That is everybody working together were years ahead of approvals that we would be if we went by. The speed levels of past administration would be 2 years 3 years behind where we are today and that includes and vaccines of youll be hearing about very soon very shortly to deliver a true prince and vaccine to save lives who are moving unnecessary barriers and delays not by cutting corners but by marshalling the full power of the federal government to a methodology is a senior scholar a job hope concern for hope security he says the president s actions will hurt the response to the current virus treatment when people recover from the coronavirus they develop antibodies and what convalescent classman does is takes their blood the portion of their blood that contains those antibodies in transfused that into someone who has corona virus and those antibodies help to neutralize the virus help them recover quicker and this is something that has a lot of biological possibility but we do not yet know whether this works because we dont have randomized control data to show that it is definitively beneficial i believe the president s move will hurt the medical community we were able to get convalescent plasma ive given it to every patient that i needed to give it to ive had no problems giving it to them under expanded use with the f. D. A. What the president s move does is makes it very unlikely that well get a randomized control trial result so we may end up in the end not knowing whether or not this worked or not and thats not how we want to do medicine we dont want politics to be injected into the f. D. A. Decisions we every time the president has intervened in this pandemic it is and is actually hurt the response of the pandemic so we saw this with hydroxy clark and we dont want to repeat of this this is actually something that there is a promising signal here and we want to know exactly when to give it and who to give it and the only way were going to know that is through rigorous randomized control trials and this is going to discourage people from enrolling in the trials because the president has now and put his finger on the scale soto speak. Well still ahead here holders are fraudsters fugitives and convicted criminals out as their investigation identifies some of the followers buying you citizenship in cyprus.
