Youre watching R T International bring you your live news update from our studio here in moscow welcome to the program. U. S. Stocks have rebounded from mondays bloodbath on wall street major indexes have risen following todays briefing by the Coronavirus Task force and the Trump Administration sought to come markets by signaling a Major Economic response will be put in place soon by Key Industries still face the threat of collapse because you know this is worse than 911 for the Airline Industry this is almost ground to a halt the president wants to make sure that although d we dont want people to travel its critical we want to maintain for critical to. Rival the right to have to master credit by making shared sacrifices and temporary changes we can protect the health of our people and we can protect our economy because i think our economy will come back pretty rapidly one day well be standing possibly up here will say well we won and were going to say that sure if youre sitting there were going to say that and were going to win and i think were going to win faster than people think i hope. During the briefing donald trump unveiled some of the plans being put in place including mailing checks to Americans Congress will also be discussing a multibillion dollar aid package to prop up and link sectors of the economy such as the Airline Industry on the Federal Reserve is set to reintroduce additional crisis era tools in a bid to stabilize Financial Markets markets reacted positively to the news which shares jumping slightly on the hopes of a stimulus package to help against a coronavirus fall out thats after a dramatic sell off on monday when u. S. Stock markets suffered their worst trading day since the 1987 black monday crash share prices tumbled at 12 percent wiping out trillions of dollars in market value was more on the current Global Economic situation here is r. T. S. Lets you majored in finance and everything thats happening may seem a little overwhelming what is go alone while youre markets melting down one of bankers whirling around like headless chickens in a few minutes with this monopoly set all explode everything seems to be crashing and burning what the hell is a fiscal stimulus and why is everyone crazy about rate cuts 1st thats the pieces so here are investors meaning millionaires youre middle class with mortgages savings your pension is here all of them have some money saved up these days you keep your money under your mattress you want to return it right interest a big good pension so you take this money and you put it in the banks pending how smart they all how greedy they are they promise you x. Amount of profit per month the banks then go ahead and loon out this money to have a needs that they drive our entire economy the new hotel built in your city the new jet purchased by British Airways the new hips the bar bill down the road from you youll mortgage to buy your house comes from the bank. So all this money goes into the economy to keep things running and here is how it runs every month these people make payments to the bank here every month the same payment goes back to the bank the bank then pays the investors the investors then put the money back into the bank this is obviously simplifying things but you get the gist of it its a cycle it all works great while it works but then something unforeseen happens like a mortgage crisis or a pandemic virus clubs and pubs are to be closed along with theatres museums do Sports Centers and Similar Establishments and retailers with specific exceptions. Now is the time to take extra steps we are ordering the suspension of all retail activities with the exception of groceries pharmacies and other outlets selling fancy goods. Suddenly mass shut down quarantine factories businesses come to a standstill people lose jobs stop paying mortgages suddenly people arent paying the banks back and the investors the markets your pension manager they start panicking that is their money stuck potentially lost they see the news pandemic they call the bank they say they want their money out pull my money out of the markets out of the dow jones out of b. P. Out of up all the markets crash but the banks dont have it here is where the government step in before this mass panic and a run on the banks the government say the magic word bailout Fiscal Relief lots of words but its the same thing the government pulls money out of thin air the money presses and gives it to the banks so that they can keep paying investors its all pretend play they just simulating that everythings fine by printing ridiculous amounts of money and passing it back and forth between each other the real economy the factories in the businesses these guys are in quarantine and shut down but the entire point of this little show is temporary live this illusion has to work for a little while weeks months to allow the economy to recover to prevent the banks from going bankrupt and recalling all this debt to help these guys get back on their feet and start paying their debts back you dont need to be a new to the economist or an economist to realize how how fickle how fragile this illusion is the collapse of the markets down 10 percent roughly here you know. It states in new york city where im sitting is a clear very profound statement of the entire Investment Community which is not the small people who have a few shares im talking about the people who manage ancient funds who manage bank boards on wheels and so on have a massive loss of confidence in the government of the United States or in the private economy to get out of this disaster were running on borrowed time they cant keep printing money for too long or inflation goes through the roof money becomes worthless the illusion will eventually wear off even the most optimistic investors can only live in denial for so long and will realize that banks are living in a dream world then it all collapses see the world up until now has been weighing lives vs the economy for all the criticism and ridicule of the world through a child or they shut down everything sacrificed their own economy to keep the virus from spreading the west didnt the west ridiculed that dismiss chinas response as incompetent they tried to keep the markets happy rather than the people safe and what they got america and europe is the worst of both worlds an economy on the brink of collapse and the death toll fast eclipsing that of childbirth. For further analysis we cross to Geoffrey Albert tucker the editorial director of the American Institute for Economic Research and u. S. Airlines one more than 50000000000 in state aid what do you make of that number. Not nearly enough and factor is not nearly enough money on the planet earth to bail out everything thats under pressure right now and this is creating Something Like a political disaster in the u. S. Because congress has opened up the floodgates for spending and every single business guess what everybody is suffering terribly right now and everybodys going to want to bail out but you know you have to produce the resources before you can spend them and nobody is producing any resources right now so the fiscal and monetary consequences of what the u. S. Is doing right now is going to be felt for a very long time to come and you know this is a calamity thats more or less manmade actually none of this is actually truly necessary but the u. S. Did absolutely everything wrong from the beginning of this crisis which other industries are suffering most from the coven 1000 virus. Well everybody associated with travel and hospitality you know from restaurants and obviously airlines but into Entertainment Venues actually its hard to say that that anybody is making out well right now because you know Grocery Stores are having a hard time even restocking employees are afraid to come to work because of whats really amounts to an epistemic crisis right now. And it all traces to a failure of the c. D. C. To have testing betty for people so you know the reason why public until sure that america panicked and where and why everything and everybody is on lockdown right now is that we just dont know we dont know who hasnt we dont know if you know you know asking do or do i have it people asking this of themselves to a habit well theres no way to find out their testing is not widely distributed we had months to prepare for this but the c. D. C. Refused to authorize private labs to test so so when the crisis hit us people were went into panic about a lack of knowledge so and guess what you cant have an economy function at all if people cant associate and trade with each other and be around each other thats ridiculous and you cant just issue orders from the top everybody stop what youre doing and do nothing you know if you do that youre going to bring about a massive market crash and expose every conceivable vulnerability in the system and thats exactly whats happening right now theres going to be a tremendous price to pay in the future. Like economically financially socially culturally psychologically but also very profoundly politically because people are going to demand do be demanding answers and the 1st thing that people can discover right now is is a closer look at why the u. S. Was not. For this testing we went through this 10 years ago with h one n one test who knows why theyre vailable people knew had it people knew what to do about it how communicable it was and have fatal it was a few Public School shutdown that was it actually that was a kind of a disastrous disease there were 50000000 people in the us who got it and 14000 people who died from it but there was there was there was no financial calamity no economic costs associated with and the reason was the wide availability of testing but in this country the c. D. C. Actively went out of its way and stopped private labs from from producing and distributing their own tests and that didnt change into february 28th when they finally relaxed. There are restrictions on this so that that was the core of the calamity as i say this this crisis is not just financial and its not just a Health Crisis its alternately an epistemic crisis it was the panic generated from the lack of knowledge and the lack of the means to discover that knowledge that people really needed to have when we needed it and as i say. There will be a price to pay for this were just now beginning to see it. Weve been speaking with the editorial director of the American Institute for Economic ResearchGeoffrey Albert tucker thank you for your time and your comments. Meanwhile france has imposed an almost total lockdown on citizens but there were 100000 Police Deployed to enforce the quarantine the measure is unprecedented for a postwar europe and military trucks have been filmed being deployed to the paris suburbs it comes as frances interim in the start warns people to stay at home in quarantine. Remote dulled the message is clear stay at home these are containment measures similar to those when spain and its persons traveling must be able to justify their leaving us each person will have to carry a document so its a timely reason. If. It comes as the e. U. Radically steps up its efforts to contain the coronavirus restricting all nonessential travel for at least 30 days several nations including austria germany and france have closed their borders. Looks at whether the era of Free Movement could be coming to an end. For years populists have been advocating tighter buda controls within the European Union which you and the National Governments have criticised it in 2020 that is exactly what we seeing happening it all started with italy and border controls being imposed from people trying to leave. Italy to go into austria but since then a host of other e. U. Countries have done exactly the same we have seen slovenia hungary denmark and now even germany shutting up shop saying its borders are closed shame again which is the idea of Free Movement within the European Union to do that without passports is essentially over well for now at least if not the borders of the entrance of the European Union and the schengen zone will be closed concretely all travel between non european and European Countries will be suspended for 30 days or we are forced to stop Flight Connections to these countries and establish controls at the swiss border just like the ones we have already implemented with italy when youre hungry border in the direction of italy remains closed. Without a valid reason travelling in and out of the can through will no longer be allowed. To burn on entering the Czech Republic for all foreigners except foreigners who the permanent residence a permit or residence of overmind to do life in the e. U. As we know it is over museums shops bars cafes schools have all shut up shop in many countries in a bid to pause the peak of the infection rates in france the bees which is the way that people sort of course we teach other with kisses on the cheeks has been pretty much banned people have been awkwardly bumping elbows or knocking their heels together but even that has been petering off as people are becoming more and more whipped up into hysteria that they could get contamination from just being close to another person the governments line is keep your distance from each other yet in the e. U. This conglomerate of 27. 00 countries which are all meant to be singing to the same tune it doesnt seem that theres one. The rule that all are applying even the European Commission is warning that the closing of borders could actually pause supplies thousands of bus and Truck Drivers stranded at internal borders on parking lots creating more health risk and disrupting our supply chains if we do not take action now shops will start facing difficulties in refilling their stocks of certain products coming from elsewhere in the Single Market some see the idea of governments in europe essentially locking down their countries as being the start of a slippery slope even warnings that this could be a nail in the coffin for globalization as we know it the Coronavirus Crisis threatens to assure a less globalized world was the pandemic im panicking bates those who believe the openness to people and products from around the world is generally a good thing we need to make a case for it afresh in persuasive ways. And he says this could be a gift for populous parties who have been advocating this this tighter control of borders for many many years and also those tighter restrictions 19 has highlighted the downsides of Extensive International integration while funding fears of foreigners and providing the gist of missy for National Restrictions on global trade flows of people your pet store oakley has been a cultural hobbits bars its cafes its restaurants hazes of people coming together discussing and debating ideas and some fear that this idea of self isolation as weve been told to do could actually cut through the fabric of that some have also said that it will see the nation fighting loneliness as people self isolate in their homes and their apartments now in italy some people have already tried to overcome that weve seen these marvelous comes together of people singing on their balconies as theres a sense of were in this together oh god. d but the longer that self isolation goes on some say could be weak some say it could be months for many people their homes which are meant to be their safe haven the place that they go to relax and rest could become more like a prison cell future historians will remember the time 90922020 as the heyday of european global integration which came to an end for the borders of Free Movement. Inclusion etc. All of a sudden we see a complete this mode goes into reverse. The the consequences would be grief no question i do not expect any return to the status quo ante we would see a different view i do not expect a disintegrated europe but how this will how this will work out how it will look in. Reality for example with border controls thats a completely different question days of the past with no border controls at all i see is permanently over. Amid the panic australias largest chain of supermarkets has had a special hour for elderly and disabled shoppers so they can buy basic goods like toilet paper i dont which has triggered a violent scuffles the netherlands in turn has seen a heightened demand for marijuana with people queuing outside of kosh coffee shops and american shoppers meanwhile lined up near gun stores with sales of weapons. Former bricks it party m. E. P. Dr david bull says mass panic buying is only worsening the situation. People are human and people are very worried about whats going to happen and the more the government or any government says to people dont panic well i people then think well why shouldnt i panic buy and therefore naturally go off and panic buy and the real sadness about this those people who are really going to be hit hard all to all of the elderly and the vulnerable now clearly Opening Stores i think for an hour in the morning for elderly people is a great idea if you talk to the retailers they say they have no problems with their distribution and in fact all of the goods are getting through at the moment i mean i heard a lot of on laden say there that actually there are problems at the borders but so far in the United Kingdom we do not have problems with distribution the biggest problem is people panic buying so the thing we need to do is to come together as communities and there are some really good examples of people reaching out and saying lets look after our elderly neighbors in terms of making sure they have shopping and food and all the rest of it and actually we need some pew manatee here this is about all of us taking a breath stepping back and doing what is best for the whole community. Has surfaced showing an australian soldier shooting dead in an arm afghan civilian contradicting in official investigation details after this break. The world is driven by dreamers shaped by one person or those with. Dares thinks. Week here to ask. What weve got to do is identify the threats that we have its crazy on sunday shouldnt let it be an arms race is on all sides very dramatic developments only really im going to resist i dont see how that strategy will be successful very critical of the army times to sit down and talk. Welcome back graphic footage has emerged online showing an australian soldier shooting dead an unarmed afghan man and warning you may find the following images disturbing. Stop. What i am deeply disturbed by what has been aired in tonights 4 corners report we are serious allegations are raised australians would rightly expect there are some are leagues namond the video was obtained by the australian 4 corners t. V. Programme the show claimed an official investigation while the killing was justified as self defense something thats not support. By the footage the killing is one of a number of cases uncovered by the programme the countrys defense minister now says she backs an inquiry into all claims are wrongdoing by special forces in afghanistan in 2017 a former defense lawyer link the socalled afghan files the documents allege war crimes by australian soldiers among the claims are the mistaken killings of a father and son during a raid as well as the killing of an afghan detainee and the mistreatment of others brian becker from the antiwar answer Coalition Says the claims of war crimes are becoming a daily occurrence for the Australian Special forces theres no doubt that this is a demonstration work right theres no doubt about that whatsoever the Australian Military again is is involved in a criminal cover up the fact that theyre shooting people while theyre lying still on the ground and they recognise that a camera may be capturing these war crimes and they do it anyway shows how absolutely routine killings like this are in the field they are gauged in routine i believe routine work crimes and crimes against humanity and they know that their bosses their superiors in the chain of command are perfectly ok with it they appear to still be ok with it even though the video completely contradicts the assertion that this was in selfdefense. The us ascribed a key strength of its investigation into russian interference during the last president ial election charges have been dropped against 2 firms accusers running a troll farm that aimed to influence voters my colleague and a farmer discussed the issue with artists ask a tailor. Well times russia gate and the infamous Murder Investigation have seemed never ending but it appears that we might be seeing a ton in the tide because on monday the u. S. Department of justice fall to motion to dismiss all charges against 2 companies but Concord Management and Concord Consulting now these are russian farms which were accused of financially supporting efforts to allegedly meddle in the 2016 u. S. President ial elections before we Start Talking through the whole back story to this lets listen to the exact reason that the d. O. J. Gave for dropping the case in light of the defendants conduct the risk of exposure to Law Enforcement tools and techniques and the post indictment changing the proof available at trial the balance of has shifted it is no longer in the best interests of justice or the countrys National Security to continue this prosecution. So washington says its backed out of the trial on the grounds of National Security and it might be linked to the fact that back in 2919 a confidential information from the meter investigation was apparently and leaked online now the d. O. J. Never got to the bottom of who was behind the leak what if they never accused anyone but we can see that clearly this is had an impact and it has stoked fears of the breaches but either way given that the trial was just a couple of weeks ago and it was so high profile it was so much anticipated this is really quite a significant quite sensational backtrack from the Justice Department just give some details then about why these 2. Of this investigation in the 1st place. Management unconquered consulting are 2 of 3 companies on 13 individuals that were charged in fact with 20 by Rupert Murdoch was a huge and that went on for 675. 00 days despite the resources that was still no concrete evidence but still that didnt stop the hysteria this was something. It was inescapable it was on every t. V. Screen in america 13 russian nationals and 3 Russian Companies accused of a massive effort to meddle in the election if you read between the lines is clearly saying that this was a russian government operation by special counsel Robert Muller has indicted some 13 russian nationals Russian Intelligence Service for a very very long time has had in their playbook the this Information Campaign so as we just heard that as part of the meter investigation 13 employees from concord what charged at the time they were watching for the International Research agency now this is the socalled troll from dropping this case want out to be very welcome news that will prepare a 50000000000. 00 lawsuit against the u. S. Government for illegal prosecution and sanctions so well see how that plays out but definitely a massive u. Turn from the Justice Department and a bit of disappointment no doubt for all those who were hoping that this trial would be some sort of vengeance for those who believe that donald trump was elected not by the American People but who by the kremlin itself russia analyst Martin Mccauley believes the case was dropped to protect intelligence secrets. The u. S. Justice department has taken a better very serious step not an on president step because if you go back to the cold war. The u. S. Justice department decided not to charge set new u. S. Priorities because it would reveal too much about u. S. Country intelligence operations and so on so its not the 1st time its happened theyve backed away from it but is a really serious built in the u. S. Justice department and the romas mirror so in other words the u. S. Justice department is now saying a busy day we can go forward with this charge against Concord Management because it would reveal too much about how we collect information and how we penetrate the other side and also it might heal the informal saw in russia if at all from this our news wise but if youre looking for more head on up or to our web site r. T. Dot com thanks for telling it. You are no offense but you no longer a young woman in fact you are one of the last living survivors of the nazi else asked im aware of it. All you like. You can never forget the other guy now. Was it really like to be inhaled because he would never believe it want to go to as a hobbit course for 30 years and over the. River of it it all seems so logical for why you decide. To write when i get out on the farm saw your song to their next meal so you can listen in hopefully bless my heart hurts
