Increasing to run twice the rate seen in late june. Just after 10 am in vancouver 11 pm and 8 in the evening here in moscow base friday july and this 17 welcome to r. T. International. Russia has rejected britains accusations of election meddling and tucking research the u. K. Foreign secretary said the government is almost certain that russia sought to interfere in last years poll. Taylor breaks down the claims. 2020 the year just keeps on giving a pandemic but social awakening and now russian interference the government has concluded that it is almost certain that russian actors start to interfere in the 21000. 00 general election through the online amplification of illicitly acquired in League Government documents whilst there is no evidence of a Broad Spectrum russian complain against a general election and any attempt to interfere in our democratic processes is completely unacceptable and elected to parliament the u. K. Foreign secretary said to his partys historic triumph at the polls in 2019 and i will of course want to congratulate absolutely everybody involved in securing the biggest conservative majority says that i do notice. Wasnt just people fed up with political deadlock infighting and endless bricks it delays no it was the russian actors theater actors film actors the Kremlin Russian nationals Russian Companies anyone whos ever been to russia its unclear and yet at the same time its apparently almost certain ring about the government has concluded that it is highly likely the likely finding likely almost certainly will show this responsible to the to. Do the script of the cliff if she didnt it looks like another use of highly likely tactics but it seems he has given up on this turn based on previous Years Experience even more so now the British Government gives us the new slogan almost certain the bridge and these mysterious russian actors bombarded the public online with details of the neat pose brocks at u. K. U. S. Trade deal the one that would have bred speaking coronated chicken and making visits to a privatized n. H. S. Hospital is something i can reveal to you 461 pages of evidence on the forest of the n. H. S. Is of the table and will. Up for sale now timing wise its an interesting allegation did the British Government just watch and do very little as the virus to hold here under fire for a severe lack of personal protective equipment for Health Care Workers and the failure to ramp up the government is under increasing pressure to ease the nationwide lockdown measures is close to having europes worst death toll so what did it do wrong what differently the governments not only buried under criticism over its covert mistakes but also in debt with the nation afraid to step outside again the accusation also comes i had been much anticipated report on russian interference and u. K. Politics as a whole a report thats been in the watts 18 months on which the Prime Minister himself said didnt point to any nefarious forces there is. Absolutely no evidence that ive ever seen of any russian in the difference in u. K. Democratic process i mean i think that this is there sure is not russian or thirds in u. K. Politics there is no evidence for that a bit mixed message but itll still do the trick russian meddling might be an oldie but its still a goody but if you really wanted to shift attention away from many crises that and buy a pack line space you could go free double whammy we know that the russian intelligence agencies have been targeting in terms of Cyber Attacks against efforts across the those 3 countries and here in the u. K. Our attempts to find a fancy through research and development occurring of ours we do not have information about who may have hacked into pharmaceutical companies and Research Centers in Great Britain we can say one thing russia has nothing at all to do with these attempts apparently a Hacking Group terrifyingly called cozy back is trying to steal everything from Research Labs hospitals big pharma is all the good guys who are walking toward. A vaccine now some might say selfish interest would include buying up the wild supply of the coronavirus treatment drug not completing the fast preclinical trial of a vaccine on humans or by its nefarious self as russia has done but thats just my no details good old russian into ferrets an old friend you can own ways to if the going gets tough and you need a bit of a break from being bashed when one of the larger point was taking us through the United Nations says it has no information about the alleged cyber theft of bucks seen research earlier my colleague spoke to the head of russias Sovereign Wealth Fund which is investing in research here in russia he said moscow would have no reason to steal medical data from overseas as work is progressing with International Partners to. What do you say to claims that russia is trying to steal information about Vaccine Research well were very hard to believe because 1st of all were surprised by the timing of those comments because it just happens of following day off that we announced as a will probably be as a 1st country to have approval who havent seen except to be expected in august of this year and we believe it will be one of the most efficient of it seems in the world allowing us to not only start vaccinating russians from september but also go partnerships with other countries in the world you know we will do produce an oxford seneca obscene straw poll a company our farm there is an agreement on that and all of that technology will be transferred to our anyway so those accusations seem to be strange ends of timing seems to be very strange as well tell us a little bit more about the multinational cooperation thats taking place for this Vaccine Development russia is open to corporation with other countries early as this year with basically said we need to jointly focus with other countries on great distance distance when successful drugs and on big sheens so we are now working with 5 other countries to start manufacturing the fraction that seeing this year we will share with them to college it will basically share with them. To be able to produce as those big scenes in other countries and we believe that International Effort is really needed only together we can address coronavirus challenge and frankly those cold war rhetoric and cold war barriers precluded many countries from being efficient and build an International Partnerships as russia is doing. New york city mayor bill de blasio has reportedly ordered a heavy Police Presence to protect a new black lives matter sign big yellow letters spelling out black lives matter appeared on 5th avenue right in front of trump tower last thursday the new york marathon self joined back to vegas to help paint the message it was later vandalized with red painted before being cleaned up donald trump responded by calling it a symbol of hate accusing the murder of disrespecting his own police department. Lets go live now to Derrick Gibson derricks a candidate for governor of new york state on a pleasure to have you on the program so we have allegations that dozens of Police Officers reportedly taken off their normal duties in the city to protect the road painting how appropriate is done. That is true there are. About 4 to 1st. Of all these off. And. On the streets and when the crime rate is. When it certainly is needed or is in the middle of a gun crime wave juden said a 25 year record for gun violence thats courtesy of the New York Times surely police should be focusing more wouldnt is not what new yorkers would expect rather than protecting street art. You know we had this sort of someone who rebels so you polies been tasked with the job so keep their that is what the mail use wanted to do to protect to settle so he has failed our state by not doing any spending his all in the streets paying but like mad on the street and also remember streets but light metal which is going out some of the nets of white america. That might it would have been better house by Homeless Population if for say you you want to end the 5 minutes ah thats when i should have. A soso sit at the current leader show. The show and all be up to you in new york city because. Youre full for your wife to sad if you stay in new york city because you have not allowed on set do you think. I why getting divergence between the lines of black people on the block in lives Matter Movement has it lost track of its initial goals. It has now think is pretty much of an emphasis right at out south forces on the old mouses in marxs and if you look at defender of the young way this is a family about. You call a family and for all the right such as you are which is not to be tolerated stave you up so a lot of white people are waking up to the movement at 1st they dont know exactly what it means to sit by quiet medical. Research to find out whats going on also communes are waking up to false peaceable d support by white people so we kind of support that but just say the painting itself derek say were talking about today was painted last week donald trump in the meantime his cold in a symbol of hate now the there are a lot of people who would support the move and supporting it is the president going a little too far in his description of it a symbol of hate. Actually he was right he was right on hes right on target hes right on we didnt solve it because i know of the results of that information is all he then so tried to sell a mission supposed at fault which is very petty and hang that in front of its out of us i would say president come right on target the president some of the intentional things sort of by i mean if hes going i could just use Prison Reform our but your own is also. Immune so both at 10 things not in the industry is still not smooth none for my community how would you assess the governments response to the whole Police Brutality movement. I think its been a bit true low im in but im self. Well once its out. But you get turned down by the citys mayor. Straight. Out fast. Rule the day so. Low in this it will him be emboldened to do more crimes which hurts everyday citizen believe it but just to set up some themselves of course on the other side of this is the police there has been a blue line as Mater Movement there always was the last few years but it seems to have grown in support of police in the us after numerous attacks on officers especially during the riots do you think that large parts of the public have a lot of sympathy the the quiet majority for what police are going through right now. The outlook george to do so or i would use it why would george close the oddest. Matter rather sour when he was. Ordered by the. Biggest out oblation what Law Enforcement because we are an active on force meant to enforce the laws of our community we are your neighbors so the little old that we can. Always also say or stole lol so are you have values. More and more. Or get them back yes than across the fawn she is i will say this taking to the streets have the temperament i also dont want to obey and its all well thanks for taking some time out of your day today to speak to us here on the program derek gibson is running for governor of new york state. Thank you. The United States recorded more than 77000 new cases of coded 1000 not is the most in a single day since the start of the pandemic and its double the figure recorded on june the 24th when numbers seemed to be decline and speaking earlier to me from new york. If you listen to donald trump he says that america is a ok as the country gets back to life and continues opening up this is the president of the United States i want everyone to know i want every citizen know that were using the full power of the federal government to fight the china virus and to keep our people safe we got hit with this terrible plague from china and now were getting close to fighting our way out of it were on the way to a tremendous victory its going to happen and its going to happen big our country will be greater good ever before thank you no administration in history has removed more red tape more quickly to rescue the economy and to protect the health of our people now at this point 39 us states are seeing a rise in cases furthermore according to the Associated Press 75 percent of the cases in the United States are in states that voted for donald trump during the 2016 elections now in arizona and texas weve seen refrigerated trucks that may soon be used as a temporary morgue for the rising deaths i am pleading with everybody in our neck of the woods help us do your part peoples lives are at stake not just the people getting sick but doctors nurses working to the bone in mass personnel transporting people now the state of florida is the worst hit and that is a state that donald trump needs to win if hes going to be the taurus in the 2020 elections drops Approval Rating seems to be declining as americans are upset with how he is handling the obit 19 situation disappointed in the administrations response now 64 percent of americans actually said in a recent poll that they distrust donald trump when it comes to his handling of the coronavirus situation and weve even heard one republican governor speaking up pretty loudly take a listen i had watched as the president downplayed the. And as the white house failed to use to public warnings drop a 50 state strategy or dispatch medical gear or a lifesaving ventilators from the National Stockpile to american hospitals the centers for Disease Control is now collecting quite a bit of statistical data and information many voices in the United States are concerned that Mainstream Media as well as elected officials and government representatives could be mis representing information about the situation and they want to make sure that we get all the facts as the country continues to face the crisis of a pandemic. The European Union is holding its 1st physical summit since february the 27 nations are hoping to approve a massive Recovery Plan and also strike a compromise on the block 7 year budget for europe correspondent peter all over a 1000 more on elbow bumps on less than straightforward negotiations. Its almost back to normal isnt it back in the room in brussels leaders of the meeting faced meeting face to face for the 1st time since coronavirus put an end to that and they have to take part in these well at times internal online video conferences mosques social distancing and elbow bumps replacing the handshake of the order of the day just like everybody said it hearing to the new rules of social distancing and masks except for those bad boys of social distancing the visit guard for the group made up of poland slovakia Czech Republic and hungary who twitter feeds have all been awash with photos of masculist handshakes yeah they dont play by anybodys rules there is some business to be taken care of though thats why theyre in brussels for this meeting a budget for the next 7 years on a much needed coronavirus stimulus package have to be agreed on Angela Merkel is in charge pretty much of. This meeting but the german chancellor didnt seem filled with confidence heading in to the summit in brussels for. Our last meeting in february was not successful we are all entering this negotiations in good spirits but i have to say the differences are still very big therefore i can see just yet whether well come to an agreement this to and expect to very very difficult negotiations Charles Michel the European Council president has cooked 26000000000 euro from the budget the 1st put forward back in may were still looking well point 86 trillion that is being asked for but that includes the 7 year budget and whipping of hundreds of millions for corona recovery their opposition as you would imagine when it comes to numbers like this the frugal for they being called austria sweden denmark and the netherlands making up the frugal for they say theyll only agree to these packages if they have the say on how countries spend that money theyve given it not a chance say those who will need the most of that money were talking about France Italy Spain and greece here they say that would infringe upon their sovereignty the meeting started with the European Parliament president david sorely warning that if an agreement isnt found theres going to be dire consequences for the whole block for me to go to these at the moment the heads of government have a huge responsibility we cannot allow ourselves to feel to reach an agreement and the council any sort of postponement could certainly provoke new storms and put the whole of europe in a difficult situation the summit can continue over the weekend i have a feeling though and so to many watching this may continue for a while yet before they find an agreement. The white house is pushing ahead with plans to reopen schools across the country by awesome despite warnings from teachers unions and democrats on the web and the White House Press secretary claim the administration is basing its policy on. When in for kids being able to attend each and every day at their school either science should not stand in the way of their spouse the country the nx step people are reporting to us about the anxiety they have about their children the decision to whether as to whether to send their children to school for me i think one of the Core Principles is you know parents need to have the ability to opt for the type of learning that they thinks importance over here this or you were for you or your kids going through this like this take your kids. To the bus. A President Donald Trump earns made the reopening of schools one of his Top Priorities over the past few months he is threaten to withhold federal funding from schools refuse to open the president was criticized the u. S. Centers for Disease Control and prevention guidelines on getting kids actually bach to class he called them tough. Expensive. But im very happy to say joining us live on the program no former Missouri State senator John Loudon Marni how lost a lawyer and former candidate for new York City Council welcome to both of you john can we kick off with you its almost what a week or so until the start of the school year in most states and its a little bit different in some. Theres fears that the you know the 2nd spike whatever could come back in in autumn in the fall is it a bit premature to be making such an announcement about schools know that they are going back or elles. Well its premature not to follow science you know weve been told all along follow the silent science follow the science well the science is worldwide every other country has their kids and schools except United States were the only one that refuses to follow the science that the kids are spreading the disease they can safely go to school and by the way i have a really unique perspective on this i have one kid in private school and one in Public School i have a special needs son in Public School i cant teach my special needs son at home my special needs son special needs kids the poor kids that dont have the prattle support they need to be in school this is worst of all this separate the gap between rich and poor because the rich people have resources to their kids at home or apartment private school. But the poor kids that dont have a choice with their local Public School very shut out and its an abomination was horrible not to get our kids back in school its a compelling argument as well as the risk to children of being kept out of school could we see a Lasting Impact for instance on their physical or Mental Health its been months and months already. Yes well you know yes i mean i do agree there are real risks as saying oh my god you being a City Council Candidate i also teach figures and so what i hear from my kids and my skating parents is that yes you know some of the kids are either isolated or. You know theres a lack of being around friends lack of having a schedule you know i think you know i guess there is an argument to be made about having a quality education where you have just one on one learning with other human beings discussing ideas. Its not just about learning once and books but also building relationships and i think that that kind of quality education is essential to really learning at the same time now you know people are scared i mean the virus is skyrocketing like all over the country you know new york city where i live i mean its actually a lot better but still now seen a little bit of a site and i think the teachers here are really really worried that theyre putting themselves. In a tremendous risk. Children dont get the disease the teachers maybe because they are i think also theres a problem because theres no National Standard theres no our president has not given us a National Plan you know the states are all arguing whether theyre going to wear masks or not they have there is not was not testing and i think because there is not this National Plan its actually a buyer is ok people are still here and rightfully so let me let me bring. Point of sorts to john because the white house is issuing guidance but ultimately the decision i believe is up to individual states could this become a political matter a political football really with blue versus red states. You know absolutely you know my my counterpart here just emphasized the politics shes a lawyer she understands federalism the United States is not founded on one size fits all Big Government telling everybody what to do the president is trying to thread a needle why make people and montana where a mask where you hardly run into anybody you know and theres very little spread of the disease there there and those just silly and to attack the president for not setting a federal standard is silly he did set a federal standard he said you should wear a mask and we should find find cures and covert it is you can use a drug you can use hydroxycut clark when hes setting those guidelines those standards if you will but hes not make them for making them federal mandate so words mean things when she says she wants a federal plan i guess she wants the federal to have a one size fits all mandate from the federal government and thats just not how we do it the United States but only only. Had a 2nd but i just want to but i just want to bring in the issue about the kids going back to school and for all when should kids go back to last when a vaccine is ready who knows when that will actually be and then you love months and months of moral weight wouldnt you like its a very tenuous time. Well i would just like to say look at what is happening in the United States i mean honestly look at california arizona florida texas the virus is iraq coming out of control and people are dying so obviously president from as true at just. Like really. Like you are by a virus yeah no no Governor Cuomo your governor failed your your governor failed. If you remove new york from the equation we have a better statistic than any any state any country in the world yes we have cases we have people testing positive but the people are dying in the blue States New York and new jersey is where they are dying in illinois thats where theyre dying because they failed to protect the elderly in the Nursing Homes new york is the 4th so forth and. It is really large it are bigger state florida is actually their state than new york. Now you do in fact dont like florida as have the 44 who dont let morning their morning he said 34000 deaths. Ok you know its really actually hard to have a conversation when the person. That doesnt have dozens is right in the same path in have your already have your are and the viruses iraq and all the states that i said and actually new york were actually better than everybody else kane are exactly. So i dont really know how to have other stations. Of the virus is not control yet you havent known you and while i really really are talking over me now ok ill wait ill wait joan doled out one place we did several july when i was 10 doctors who opened it in the fall joan why is this so important to him is it is election Reelection Campaign is not 1st and foremost in his head here. Yet this is the blue collar president hes put a premium on the blue collar the working class he wants all those poor kids like my special needs son to have a chance and not fall farther behind he wants parents to have their kids back in school so they dont have the burden of daycare or hiring tutors to take care of them and they can go to work again the idea that this disease shut. Down is silly new york is a state where 32000 people died in florida 4400 died spikes in cases positive tests is not the same as spikes in people dying its this disease kills only the vulnerable it doesnt Kill School Kids and thats the issue here and the hysteria to shut our whole country in our condom in our schools down is hysteria thats not rooted in the science that this doesnt this just doesnt hurt kids well the lie. Is that it actually if i think right now the new york city is talking about a kind of landing where you would have the kids go to school for 2 days and then 3 days of our learning and i think if the virus is control theres. Very little on the institutions and very little debts then. Actually i mean do you wish the best in your balancing kids having a quality education that he deemed safe and that everybody so you know so
