Rush outside. Ghosts of space just across from. The people walking on the beach but the support despite as you can see there are so many. Internationals world views h. Q. Here in moscow its kevin owen with here thanks for your company for the next 30 minutes to take you through the main stories of the last 7 days as reported by us and 1st tonight the latest covert 19 figures had so weak where the worlds reached another grim milestone the total number of infections now around the world is more than 4100000. 00 the virus has also claimed more than 281000 lives in terms of recovery over 1400000 people have managed to conquer the disease. The latest here in russia tonight the total number of infections is no climbed above 200000 with again a record amount of daily new cases logged today sunday its now the 5th most affected country and one of the highest rates of new infections in europe officials put the spike much of any way down to an increase in mass testing giving a fuller picture of the spread of infections russia has now carried out more than 5400000 tests which is the worlds 2nd highest. Lately we have increasingly multiplies in number of attacks and the number of positive cases has increased accordingly we see from a dynamics by the dynamics of positive cases doesnt indicate directly at the growth of the contagion but indicates firstly its a broad number of tasks and diagnosis of infectious peoples. Moscow is russias outbreak hotspot in accounts for more than half of all the countries cases from this coming tuesday itll be obligatory for people to wear masks and gloves in Public Places and the stay at home regime has been extended until the end of the month some less affected regions meantime the broader picture and russia might soon start to gradually relax their instructions russias Health Watchdog presented a 3 step plan to president putin earlier this week but he warned of the dangers against rushing ahead with easing the lockdown. We see that the situation with the spread of coronavirus in each of the regions these differences as ive already said in one region tough justified preventative measures need to be maintained or even toughened and in others its possible to plan to ease that move justified but thats only possible based on the opinion of scientists specialists and taking into account all factors and possible risks i emphasize again we must not run ahead of ourselves any negligence or haste can cause a breakdown and roll back the price of the slightest mistake is the safety lives and health of our people. Of course the numbers dont reveal the extent of the very deep personal grief suffered by families online series epidemic has been hearing from people who suffered tragic early losses in the outbreak but it is still unclear what was happening. I want to go home when will you pick me up and those were his last words. I was such a skeptic i had so much bravado about the coronavirus i was taking a suburban train to moscow it was the last working week i had to deliver 8 movies i have a studio session and i have a studio we both felt guilty as for me i have the health of an ox i never feel sick and i dont remember what a High Temperature looks like a 38 up to 39 degrees celsius then i realize that this cold with 90 and things was rio the chief medical officer said hes taken my husband under his personal responsibility everything will be taken care of of course everything will be all right as there was a potion the entry road to moscow got to be run out of times he was gone. The whole family fell ill my children and i lived or lived with my parents there were 5 of us together and both my dad and mom felt war simultaneously almost of the same time unfortunately i had a phone call on the 6th of april has the doctor himself told me the time and the day of my fathers death and offered his condolences but his. He had been in hospital for 11 days right it was his 11th day on a ventilator yes he passed away on the 6th of april at 8 40 pm when i was emotional because of it i was wondering if you know my mom. They just mark their 45th wedding anniversary this year and im so ashamed that until their final days they kept saying i didnt have health a strong as my parents my mom for example could go to the Research Institute she worked at washington go to the university she was a professor at the b. To me all the department and give a lecture there then she went home and took to mayo and did some cleaning with the she picked up her grandchildren to look after them i couldnt understand how one person was able to do all that. Great and your father was a physicist wasnt he here is yes he was a famous russian and so with laser physicists present an experimental physicist his work wasnt just theory all his discovery still has a practical use today my parents did a lot and its a shame all they could have done much more change which. Is did i waited until the very last moment hoping they will call me and tell me there had been a mistake can be true as i said he was really young daniel was so neat and tidy and he understood by this was a very dangerous bit of which is in fact it everything and we always sanitized our hands of this even when we travelled from the airport by taxi leave doesnt back to the car with alcohol through the i cant understand how this happened to work. For your god did he have a chronic diseases because of you. Know youre not that old you know he had his. Hard examined 3 years ago but hes too young for Heart Disease yet to see just 40 years old did he have diabetes now im no sure existing conditions he was an absolutely healthy young man and yes. People are like was that support you fear nothing with them were a site. That people hung you can always rely on. And then by that but suddenly one of those walls come. In i dont know what will happen to me next. World leaders pledged almost 700000000000 euro to Fund Development of a Coronavirus Vaccine at a Video Conference on monday falling just slightly short than of the target set by the euro computer European Commission the or the fundraiser with more who stepped up to the plate new didnt even show up heres our europe correspondent peter oliver. Mondays online psalmist ended with a presentation hosted by European Commission president on the line and which they said how much these nations were going to be giving and why this was an important joint cooperation honestly the presentation looked a little bit like a cross between a telephone and the results section of the euro vision song contest but instead of order issuing points to various different nations well they were issuing pledges of in some cases hundreds of millions of year 0 the overarching message though coming out from what the World Leaders had to say was that this has to be a joint effort internationally and at no stage can it turn into an arms race we have to join forces pull our money and our minds to kick start work on vaccines diagnostics and treatments against corona virus so the sun when the vaccine is ready yet has to be for the worldwide public good it has to belong to us all the race to discover the vaccine to defeat this virus is not a competition between countries but the most urgent shared endeavor of our lifetimes its humanity against the virus we have a common vision. People 1st everywhere one of those nations not taking part was the United States of America Donald trumps america 1st policy doesnt really sit all that well alongside International Cooperation the u. S. President has said that hes confident in his country discovering a vaccine to the coronavirus we are very confident that were going to have a vaccine at the end of the year by the end of the year have a vaccine its not just the u. S. President expressing that sense of it senior u. S. Officials as well have said theyre not sure about getting involved in a cooperative effort to find a covert 19 vaccine saying that the commercial implications the geo political implications of having such a vaccine. Might not be worth sharing Biomedical Research has long been a focus of theft especially by the Chinese Government and vaccines and treatments for the current virus so todays holy grail putting aside the commercial value there would be great you political significance to being the 1st to develop a treatment or vaccine we will use all the tools we have to safeguard American Research also not present on that video call with russias president Vladimir Putins russia has said they support this Global Initiative but are supporting it only as an observer so far that may change as things develop down the line but for those that did take part they said they said that overarching message was that its only through International Cooperation that we can find a solution to the coronavirus that works for all d nations around the planet. Italys been getting its 1st taste of life after lockdown as measures slowly began being eased there on monday workers and Small Business owners turned out to raise awareness of just how dire peoples finances are worsened by nearly 2 months of confinement. I. Desperate to try and get their livelihoods back on track they demanded being allowed to reopen their businesses and appealed for leaders to grant tax breaks to prevent the vital venetian tourism and Food Industries from collapsing italy was the 1st nation of course to impose strict measures as coronavirus took hold in what was europes 1st flashpoint is currently 3rd in the world when it comes to the number of deaths even so 4000000 italians headed back to work on monday while others got their 1st prolonged period in the fresh air for 2 months but many renaud rushes for brits to give their lives on the adriatic coast showed us. People of or king of beasts of the not beloved to stay in big groups but its just people who knows each other at least so im walking. Riding on my bike secure although as you can see there are no cars on there ought the spawn of the few good thinks the slow down i mean really bored to sort of clear interest but. After 45 days of lockdown sparks are going to cease that everything hes closed were still left to open all day our Economic Activities your thoughts copters birthday today is that he is the cause for most people walking on the beach at this point despite as you can see there are not so many. Numbers to funny all aspects of the pandemic are frankly staggering and with livelihoods and industries almost unrecognizable from just a few weeks ago in the United States record unemployment is no worse than the Great Depression and a century ago as kalam open explains the latest numbers confirm that we are at Great Depression levels at this point 20500000 jobs have been lost and that brings the official Unemployment Rate to about 15 percent now this essentially represents an entire decade of jobs lost basically all the jobs gained sense the 2008 financial meltdown have gone away now donald trump is speaking up and saying he should not be blamed for this this is not his fault this is us President Donald Trump yeah its totally expected theres no surprise Everybody Knows that somebody said oh look at this well you know even the democrats are blaming me for that those jobs will all be back it up be back very soon now we have heard at least one democrat voice that has blames donald trump take a listen. This is president trumps economic legacy cracks in the economy as a result of his trade wars and tax cuts have now spread wide open as a result of his ignorance and incompetence so whos the hardest hit well jobs have been significantly lost among hospitality workers as well as leisure our retail workers and professional and Business Services but the interesting thing about those statistics is they dont include a lot of workers in the United States many of written about how in the usa we have more or less a gig economy where we have workers without contract workers that are independent contractors theyre not officially counted among the unemployed when they stop getting work for for example like goober drivers and many others in this good economy they dont you know get factored into those unemployment statistics so the actual rate of job loss and income loss is significantly higher now Silicon Valley has been pretty badly hit many tech giants have apparently laid off workers and. Has at this point reduced its staff by 14 percent and we had the opportunity to talk to some americans about these numbers and about the unemployment and the economic toll of the coded 1000 pandemic here is what we heard they have an obligation to themselves a company to pick going to be cant afford to pay people when people arent spending money. You know its its set the trickle down effect and you have money to spend it and boost the economy if theres no money coming down to peoples pockets they cant spend it so how do you expect to pay a boy now a total of 33000000. 00 americans have filed to receive Unemployment Benefits sense mid march and around the country we are seeing these protests calling for the opening up and lifting of restrictions the ante lockdown protests however many people look at those anti lock down protesters that are calling for the lifting of Health Regulations and saying that by. Gathering in big groups by by being loud and assembling and being in close proximity to each other theyre probably making the Health Measures that caused these these regulations and a lockdown to be put into effect theyre probably making the Health Situation worse so quite a bad situation economically in addition to the Ongoing Health effects of the pandemic also falling through the economic cracks in the United States the many thousands of homeless San Francisco has for years witnessed a surge of rough sleepers on the streets there and the Health Crisis make it a lot worse but the authorities are taking measures to try to shelter people. It. May come here because they believe that they can get a chance and they can get in the system to get housing and so its really a burden on our system that its already. More than 18 were seeing on average about 2300 people a day now are seeing on average about 33 to 30 that day even absent 3800 people a day. But for most go this is a city ahead times are tough right now of course but this weekend many nations have been remembering the defeats of a deadlier enemy and the time of even greater suffering for gas has been picking up a pall they played in ending the 2nd world war well tell you when the weekly were to see what after this. All that sugar has created excess body fat the majority of people worldwide and that impairs immunity and therefore makes us more vulnerable to infection and during this period when were more isolated in our all. We. Want to eat more sugar thats really the worst thing people do to janets coming in this is clearly is is just very clear that its those the. Symptoms of over the communities its those individuals that are coming into the hospitals its those individuals that are simply leaving. And its ultimately because they have all of this regulation thats their formidable. Again on saturday russian with the 75th anniversary of victory day remembering the key moment when soviet troops captured berlin forcing the nazis into surrender or the countries who fought to be mocking the triumph of a fascism to although the white house seems to have a somewhat distorted memory of who did what. On maybe 8945 american Great Britain had victory over the nazis americas spirit will always win in the end thats what happens the 2nd world war was the 20th centurys darkest chapter more than 80000000 lives were lost while the us and britain the suffered over 800000 deaths the soviet union bore the brunt of the casualties with their own 26000000 killed as the war true to a close 1500000 soviet troops took part in the battle for berlin launched in april 1905 the red army captured the german capital in may is fellow allied nations broke the nazi machine on the western front by may the 8 it was over the 3rd reich fall and the nazis surrendered most countries have since given a little patriotic polish remembering their war efforts but more than a few arent happy now at the White House White washing the fact absolutely false it was the soviet union that defeated nazi germany now the u. S. And u. K. Throughout most of world war 2 the u. S. And u. K. Face just 10 german divisions combined the soviets alone fired more than 200 german divisions the white house is trying to rewrite history u. S. Propaganda in steroids at least respect history the u. S. S. R. Conquered berlin and ended the war after losing almost 30000000 lives jumping normally have p. Traders so we should take his koreans after him only the u. S. And Great Britain get the history book not sure of this ignorance arrogance but both hugely disrespectful and regardless what anyone thinks of the former soviet union in reality it was they who took berlin and it was they who lost more of the country man than any other nation the only place where usa wins w. W. 2. Well the Russian Foreign ministry is furious at the white house tweet saying it wants serious dialogue with washington of continued tends to distort and done play the soviet unions role in the war from a u. S. Diplomat triss son to also a pita could snake the director for the new play studies institute say perpetuating a start of the ignorance is a reckless move they have barrack inversion of advance it is bad i think it was sort of projecting back from the present time where the United States is the leader of all progressive humanity standing up for human rights democracy etc etc and they are retroactively projecting that view of american dominance onto history including on to the 2nd world war our attitude toward the soviet union even in the depths of the 1st cold war was far more careful and floor more respectable than it is toward post communist russia problem though is what it says about current attitudes we are there is a very strong sense from the american establishment that they can simply dictate terms to the rest of the world and they have an almost cavalier reckless added to toward insulting other countries and i think doing so almost really deliberately is your show that were in charge youre not we can do what we want you can object but who cares and i think thats the dangerous part that kind of attitude which unfortunately permeates so much of our policy donald trump. Is a complete ignoramus when it comes to understanding history. Man has no knowledge of history at all so the fact that he would repeat one of the fundamental myths about world war 2 is not shocking the problem is that this is what most americans are taught in the schools and in the media does he says these idiotic things as a distraction. And in knows now that politically hes a very deep trouble that the facade that is for the up about competence and great economy has now been shredded and so hes got to find some other way to distract and he looks for scapegoats and is trying to distract peoples attention away from the real situation and so as part of what this new cold war strategy is definite toward china is the fact that he doesnt know what the role of russia played on world war 2 is as pathetic so its very important to struggle for not and not corrupted u. S. History. Venezuela has charged 2 former u. S. Soldiers with terrorism for taking part in a failed sea incursion to kidnap the countrys socialist president Nicolas Maduro a former u. S. Veteran who runs a private Security Firm says he organized the raid but venezuela suspects it was another attempted coup that was ultimately orchestrated by washington if we were able to uncover these terrorist incursion of which we have been victims we know that the United States government assigned the Drug Enforcement agency to plan the section and assigned approach Company Silver corps for the operational planning the government of the United States of america is fully and completely involved in these really defeated by the soul and Civic Military police Union Offense well and. Dont try to dismiss the claim that the u. S. Government has anything to do with it with his usual bluster. A little group no no no it would be called an army we have it is being with venezuela it wouldnt be that way it would be a slightly different it would be called invasion. As the Washington Post newspaper published what it claimed was a contract between the former us veteran Security Firm silver corps and venezuelan Opposition Leader why dont you declare himself president last year may recall in a quiet doze listed as the commander of the operation but the suspicion of the authenticity of his signature there do him self denies any involvement investigative journalist makes blumenthal explain to us why he thinks the us has been keen to disassociate itself from this failed incursion. Venezuelan opposition one wydow the socalled interim president has his name on a subcontractor with the crew leader a silver core mercenary jorgen goudreau and at the very least the venezuelan opposition has turned to private means to carry out a military coup which is technically an act of war u. S. State department is very embarrassed by this they dont want anything to do with it whether or not they did have fingerprints on the operation and now it appears that jordan boudreau the ringleader who was contract to buy one wydow d will be prosecuted by the u. S. Government for arms trafficking said theyre clearly trying to establish legal distinction here with one white oh so it just look makes trump and his team look. Like a bunch of buffoons on the world stage. British scientists revealed this last week of the coronavirus most spread around the world last year sometimes i think between october and december the conclusions come from a genetic study of some poles from more than 7000 people whove been infected with france being one of the worst hit countries its true in special attention from the medical community this is a mood roche a mother who appears to be the countrys so called patient 0 he was diagnosed with a corona virus a month before the 1st official cases were registered in france he talked to us through his story. Around december 20th i got a dry cough and sometime later a fever my temperature rose to over 40 celsius my wife told me to call an ambulance in winter i usually do fall ill with flu but this time it was different i was taken to the nearest hospital the medics told me youll have to be put on a ventilator that was because i could hardly breathe i had been coughing up blood and my chest was aching as if i had been stabbed with a knife while i was in hospital i couldnt walk or sit up straight i was lying down all the time i was given a c. T. Scan they took me from the intensive care unit to the Radiology Department 3 or 4 times because they couldnt understand anything they told me there was nothing on your x. Rays nothing the doctor said i cant discharge you while you are coughing up blood on the 4th day after i started treatment i asked if i could leave the hospital the doctor warned that if something went wrong i would have to return at home i kept taking medicine for coughing 10 days later i only had a light cough they told me you must have had a serious lung infection back in december nobody had heard of covert 19 in china it all began around mid january i learned i had coronavirus only 10 days after i left the hospital in france the outbreak started at the beginning of march and i caught the virus in december to me its unbelievable 2 months apart the doctor called me and said mr amar you were lucky thats true because today this virus has spread everywhere. Good that hes ok now the way well this way things panned out this last 7 days as reported by us here in moscow so these tricky times altie will of course continue to keep you posted from our studios and teams around the world as well as online and social media i would like to thank you as well for taking the time to check in with us whether you do it for now for me kevin always stay safe and well and a very good evening from russia. The world is driven by dream shaped by one person but there is. No day or thinks. We dare to ask
