Bring you the latest news every hour of the day this is our national while come from myself and the whole team in moscow. Well lets jump in with our 1st story u. S. Stocks plunged to the lowest in decades the Federal Reserve moved to pump in emergency loans to ease the strain as investors fled over the impact of the coronavirus demick the benchmark Dow Jones Industrial average fell 10 percent in a single day marking the biggest decline since black monday and that was back in 1907 other major american indexes also closed significantly donald trump gave a rousing Oval Office Address to the nation but failed to comment just as nubs about the economic damage kopek 19 is causing. This is not a financial crisis this is just a temporary moment of time that we will overcome together as a nation and as a world and todays boom bust on r. T. Weve gathered expert analysis to try and map out why the stock market rollercoaster is heading as well as covert 1000. 00 another fact of course is while which is seeing a price drop out and supply such. This is the beginning of the greatest financial crisis in u. S. History the financial crisis of us of 2008 will pale in comparison as will the severity of this recession the summer when we look back to these numbers its going to look externally graham i think i differ with my friend peter is actually think its possible that we could get out of this thing pretty quickly come the fall in the winter i think peter has a bit of an apocalyptic view talk about the coronavirus thats not the problem no the coronavirus is just the pin the debt bubble is the problem it doesnt matter the coronavirus can be cured the damage is already done the debt bubble is imploding you know if it wasnt a coronavirus it would have been Something Else this volatile has been looking for in 3 years and it finally found one the us has done everything wrong this stimulus package is is is utterly pointless the this is just government officials trying to make headlines and make news and do what they think theyre supposed to do but it Means Nothing in the fiscal stimulus would mean nothing but i think were faced with with the short term deflation as weve seen from from virtually prices and everything from financials to oil to the fiscal stimulus is going to make the situation worse the us is broke did your is no money to stimulate the economy all we could do is print money were going to crank up the Printing Presses were effectively dropping money from helicopters but if the coronavirus does anything its going to reduce the supply of goods so after this initial decline in prices prices are going to go up because theres not going to be very much to buy the supply of goods is going to go down meanwhile the supply of money is going to go through the roof. The transatlantic travelers are also being dealt a blow off to dont move to trips to and from europe which takes effect late this friday public figures arent immune to the rest either its. Seems the canadian Prime Minister for example is self isolating for 14 days and nights after his wife tested positive for coke at 19 following a visit u. K. Around the world more than 130000 infections have been registered with countries like clamping down on people mixing and Public Schools and workplaces are being shot and major sports fixtures postponed but with anxiety spreading just as fast the coronavirus is providing opportunities beyond scrupulous. With panic in no short supply coronavirus hearing from some enterprising individuals well shysters to be more precise being concocting a variety of scams to make a quick buck now were all well aware that the 1st line of defense against the virus is told watch on her and when youre out in the pouch touching everything from. 200. 00 to picking up things in short its a bit difficult to run into a both room to scrub. Every time well thank goodness of course those little travel sized bottles of her unsanitized to fight those nasty germs and that is of course if you can still find eddie the phones dont stop printing this morning we have the schools the town halls the Public Transport Company everybody wants gel we are under siege with demand far outstripping supply the cost of one jail exponentially increased the problem was considered so serious the french government stepped in to you that today will take the degree regulating the prices of hydrocodone it jelled another precaution for many is to do on a face mask a tiny bit of cloth covering your mouth and is this seasons must have it seems the face mask. Over Paris Fashion Week so if you have the money instead of paying a couple of euros for one you can spend thousands if you like except that the type of mask available over the counter or even from a renowned freshen house is pretty useless against the virus thats at least according to the french government which at the same time is requisitioned all stocks and production or flasks for the next few months reserving them for Health Workers and those who are infected but the scammers have a new ploy france has you probably know a wolf famous ban or fully covering your face in public thats mainly aimed at conservative muslim women but some tricksters have twisted it to their advantage dressing as Police Officers theyve been told getting chinese visitors to paris who were wearing face masks telling them that they had broken the law and had to pay an on the spot following these students were 1st to pay a 150. 00 euros and finds most policeman for having broken the law that bans complete Face Covering in public spaces Police Investigation found the d. C. Police were pretending to be Police Wearing a mask for Health Reasons is absolutely not illegal. There are trying to pick on the weak and the elderly in the district around bordeaux there are reports of people selling door to door Decontamination Services for a snip at 1500 euros these con artists use a pressure washer to do a little bit of cleaning thats not all theyre up to this type of canvassing allows these crooks to enter your home check the presence of valuable objects of the presence of an alarm system perform if they have the opportunity a robbery by trick the majority of the victims of robbery or elderly who feel. We can tell your loved ones to take precautions and the scams it seems are gaining momentum the French National consumer and fraud office says its received thousands of reports of dog dealings were talking everything from magical lumps with disinfecting properties to antivirus purifier is the simple and most effective method to stay virus free is something that we should all been doing anyway and that is thoroughly washing our hands with soap and water its that simple so remember to kiss well not physically as weve been told not to be a search but the acronym keep it simple stupid and dont get caught and. R. T. Paris. Sticking with the whole coronavirus story the crisis is posing a unique difficulties for one of greeces smaller outlying islands one case has now been registered on land sports which is host to a densely packed refugee camp where more than 20000 are living and often die a conditions evangelise it says has been speaking to some of the islanders. Im standing here in front of the laurier refugee camp in the listless reese were about 20000 refugees are held in an area that was initially built for 2000 people area its not the base when it comes to fighting in the conditions are not the ideal for People Living in such a small area but now with the spread of the corona virus a relic of the world a lot of the people are concerned he went around and spoke to the locals to see what they had to say about a fear of a virus like that spreading among the camp. If it gets like italy will be doomed because the island only has one hospital it is good if they manage to isolate one or 2 of those infected with corona virus one of the feel and let the infection spread further you can imagine what will happen. With them ago there will be many issues and they will be big the virus is likely to spread very fast it could be maria thats affected but also my telling the whole island of lesbos will be in trouble i have family on the island and of course im afraid if we have our homes our jobs they say many bad things about us but its us who are dealing with this issue but as the locals are raising concern about such a bit leaf iris on the island angels are ensuring that nothing of those cases have been confirmed here at the moria camp but as we went around and we spoke to refugees who are living in this cow for many many years now they have a different opinion this place like what hes. Doing a lot of people here now you dont know we saw somebody told me yesterday that 2 people have its young men and. Im sick but theyre not even treating me nobodys paying any attention on the virus whos already here even if you are in the hospital it does not help much because you cannot be cured you know i sleep in a container with other people hope. That effect is ripping through the u. S. Election process to democratic president ial hopefuls joe biden and pundits on just go head to head on sunday and another round of debates though under serious restrictions not only is the debate being moved from our zone to washington that wont also be no studio audience one of the moderators has also pulled out citing medical concerns for the candidates themselves while saunders who is now behind biden on delegates says he isnt losing any momentum donald trump must be defeated and i will do everything in my power to make that happens on sunday night in the 1st one on one debate of this campaign the American People will have the opportunity to see which candidate is best positioned to accomplish that goal saunders losses being partly blamed on his own at target photos many of whom believe that voices are no longer being hugged. Explains the last day of democratic primary voting did not go too well for Bernie Sanders and now many voices are calling for him to drop out of the race and clear the road for joe biden however sander says he is not willing to give up just yet now sanders says his campaign actually has the upper hand over his rival when it comes to the youth but it isnt just the ideological debate. Over the rest of the its what. We need the generational. One or 2 in the future you need to. Preserve the future oh country now the polls confirm what Bernie Sanders says young people like him more than they like joe biden and one of the goals of the Bernie Sanders campaign is to get them more involved in the electoral process but its not as easy as it sounds how weve been as successful as i would hope in Brigham Young people and the answer is no but why young people aged 20 to 35 approximately adds up to roughly 60 samant 1000000 people if they all signed up to vote sanders would have quite the edge but they havent done that turnout among Younger Voters remains comparatively low some blame the procedure for registering to vote for the 1st time for students who are going to school in another state registering to vote can get quite complicated some said that the Electoral College and the Party Primary process is very confusing and complicated and the quality of education on civic matters is quite low we decided to talk to some younger people here in new york city and find out why the numbers of young people going out to vote is so low did you vote in the last election now do you plan to vote in the upcoming primary vote maybe. Navy Better Believe it why might you not vote. It just doesnt make sense that the publics opinion doesnt even matter when it comes to a president ial election now why do you think a lot of Young Americans dont vote. Cause it doesnt make any sense to close the most the defense of the. People sometimes the lines are really long but. Not as long as adults knew thats what younger people just see there it dont think its important as are so many people in voting or they just. I dont know. Why i feel like a lot of them probably think that their vote doesnt make a difference as what i hear from a lot of my friends who can vote so thats probably the devil is what happened last election as well i dont think they feel that their voices heard it is one of the reasons that i dont think that they really understand what a difference it makes in our democracy today are you going to vote for sanders or biden. Sand is to keep that to myself i guess i like both of them i go to. Buy the i think as i stand right now is leaning more toward sanders now the Sanders Campaign has been reaching out to Younger Voters with catchy slogans and internet memes some say this could hurt him with older voters who dont like the resentful towner radicalism coming from the Sanders Campaign on the other hand its the Younger Generation struggling with historic levels of debt and lack of health care who have the most to gain or lose people in my age Group Younger and older than me like you want people like are working a lot or the rest school or or both they just dont have time for politics and theres also a lot of political apathy student debt but its also. Health care and its jobs theres a 3 main thing a lot of people in my generation in generations theres almost no future for us a lot of these people who like biden just want to keep things the way they are of all the people the older generations they have their pensions they have this and that they dont see anything wrong with anything in our i mean no i have those people think that all the military actions that the u. S. Has done in the past 20 years has been justified thats just gives people even to a lot of middle upper middle class liberal types bitin reminds them of things or everything was fine and back to normal even though for the one or more overwhelming majority of the population of the us things werent normal for people worst. Struggling to get by well if Bernie Sanders does eventually drop out of the race the Democratic Partys infighting might risk losing crucial votes one american t. V. Pundit drew far online for suggesting shed rather waste how vote then play along with the Party Establishment the new bring again fondas. I dont think its terrible for progressives. To vote for trump i think thats nuts i would never do that. For donald trump either but you can we let the line here we go crystal ball saying she will leave it blank in november what an absolute hack this is a really great example of White Privilege in action with all that on the line crystal ball one of the biggest grifters on the scene is using her platform to advocate for trumps reelection just wear a maggot hat and be done with it the behind the scenes soap opera playing out in the Democratic Party has been a gift to a lot of the u. S. News coverage who are starring suggestions that supports the thought does what only help trump get reelected the vermont senators back at the beginning in though accusing his critics of being more open a little selfserving. I will absolutely not default for biden when they try to get into it by saying you must be privileged not to be impacted by trumps policies remember theyre trying desperately to hang on to their privileges which they will never ever extend to you the d. N. C. May have just gone triumph reelected make no mistake youve biden who is totally demented excites no one and has 0 good poses to offer is the Democratic Party candidate trying who win reelection all of these are Republican Party and russian hashtags dont buy into it theyre trying to prevent berna supporters from supporting joe biden so the trump wins in an election he has no chance in nickel on media commentator lionel thought that if thought to supporters Joe Biden Party leaders only have themselves to play. There is a sizable faction and always has been all for the last 2 elections who supported Bernie Sanders who dont like the fact that Bernie Sanders has been shown that hes been moved out of the way for the 2nd time in a row now theyre being told listen shut up vote for the party vote for a vote for vote how youre told to listen to your elders and what theyre doing is theyre saying wait a minute this is not my idea of voting remember the lesser of 2 evils is still evil they know theyre going to get screwed again and then you have other pundits who somehow have established themselves as being the voice of either progressive activism or democrats who are saying no if you dont vote for joe biden you were levi a lady hero and theyre saying down with your old im voting my way thats whats happening. Still i had 5 or 6 trucking apps sold to help people keep infections out of pay we have concerns that theyre also perhaps covering a little too much private data well talk about it after the short break. Join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and ill be speaking to us of the world of politics or business im sure business ill see you there. Welcome back now Tech Companies have been looking to step up their role in halting the spread of covert 19 various apps have been developed to highlight the increasing risks but critics say its at the expense of uses privacy so here are a couple of examples one application asked for your postal code but goes as far as asking about personal hygiene habits others get people to publish the virus like symptoms and create the map of high risk areas based on that data but all of our use of personal data could fall foul of e. U. Laws which heavily restrict the medical data which can be gathered it is for example illegal to use location data in any way to track someone who is sick employers also cant take random temperature readings of their staff and they cant gather other Digital Information unless medical professionals are involved while weve been discussing whether data privacy can take a back seat when it comes to exploiting tech to tackle the pandemic. If ups can be made to work in that way where data is anonymous and we can have a service that provides some form of utility to the general population then there is real potential here to to provide a service that would be absolutely necessary in this kind of occasion if people are worried about being surveyed by the state and thats too late the state is surveying everybody and so are private corporations embedded in the state so we take a really security 1st approach that theres no reason why you cant keep the data secure and theres no reason why you cant abide by g. D. P. Our dispose of the date data once the virus is over it is potentially a very a useful tool for dealing with a pandemic like this because weve got all of this Communications Infrastructure which was not liking during the black death for example which was allow us to act collectively to protect ourselves its all a bit hurried we dont have a single focus on a single up we dont actually have the permissions structure were not able to identify accurately the people who we actually need to track and actually some of the security in the privacy provisions havent been put in and minded about and if were going to rush this then the chance of it being secure and everything working accurately is very unlikely to be a sufficient we do need laws to protect the citizens but the laws us to be russian realistic and in the situation like this if you can you can just basically people are being asked to volunteer information about where theyve been and what theyve done a little should be any problem in offering the phone to you know legitimate medical personnel so that they can use it to help them fight this crisis. And charge has ordered Us Army WhistleblowerChelsea Manning be released from jail ruling that had it had to no longer serves any purpose just a quick reminder manning had attempted to kill herself on wednesday. Mannings appearance before the grand jury is no longer needed in light of which her detention no longer serves any coercive purpose the court further finds that in force ment of the accrued conditional fines would not be punitive but rather necessary to the course of purpose of the courts civil contempt order mining is still recovering in hospital its unclear what the mining will be jailed again if she fails to pay the fine she has been in prison is made for refusing to testify against wiki leaks before a crown jury we spoke with noir and activist kevin zeese who believes the Legal Process used against manning is fundamentally unfair. But this whole case is an injustice and a violation of her basic human rights the secret grand jury system in the United States is very unfair it only allows the prosecutor in the room with jurors no defense lawyer no defendant only hear one side of the story thats what manning is protesting really ringback singles where the trouble illustration is going when it comes to Julian Assange and wiki leaks they already have an indictment against Julian Assange they are not supposed to use the grand jury for the purpose of gathering evidence to prove that indictment but it shows to me that the government is not very confident about the evidence they have or about that indictment they want more. Fine for the better off a few places on earth where a sense of identity as more keenly felt than in jerusalem and the east of the city though that is fury among palestinians living at how washington refers to them in a new human rights report that describes that as arab residents or non Israeli Citizens a middle east correspondent paula slayer has been gauging reaction in the city. Whats in a name a lot if you live in East Jerusalem and a palestinian but washington has decided to simply ditch the palestinian identity of those who live here in East Jerusalem the state department now considers them arab residents or non Israeli Citizens the move has infuriated many with palestinian leaders saying its an attempt to wipe out their National Identity its just playing with fire and may not as he stands Means Nothing to us and by the way im ready to resent us from that Means Nothing to us we out of the old regime the people of the palestinians when i say im pretty soon in some places they dont like they dont they want us to say we are israelis and if i am palestinian who is trying to say anything this is our land our country our state the state of palestine by mother leave this nationality were Freedom Fighters there. Give rights to decide our life and he says its hot air this land is for the arabs its our land we were born here in israel this is East Jerusalem which israel captured in the 1967 war its late it makes the area and it moves that is still not recognized internationally more than 360000 palestinians or non Israeli Citizens live here most of them hold israeli residency permits but very few have Israeli Citizenship theyve long sought to make this area they kept the change in american terminology comes amid increased wrangling over the contested city the american president Donald Trumps middle east plan says that you recently should remain the softened capital of the state of israel for ever policia East Jerusalem. Political analyst and oren who is in tel aviv and he says that jerusalem palestinians could have more political leverage and its well thought out what mean accepting Israeli Citizenship. The residence off jerusalem the palestinian residents could claim Israeli Citizenship and in debt case they could vote in the elections to the knesset and flip the government from netanyahu to his adversaries but they choose not to do it they choose to remain loyal palestinians and this is where they clash with both the netanyahu government and the trumpeting this regime the United States has. Used various in order to describe israel the west bank and the gaza strip you can. Look it up throughout the years it has changed. Thats a wrap phonology storm of the auto com is the place for you took a peek coming away now they went and i think.
