Is Art International coming to you live from the russian capital thanks for joining us this hour russian scientists are poised to register the worlds 1st vaccine against kobe had 19 according to the countrys Health Ministry that could happen as early as next week trials have been ongoing since june here in moscow where 2 groups of volunteers taking part we go live now to our to the in the air and nicky are we a step closer to actually winning the battle against covert 19 well lets hope so what weve all been adjusting to living this new normal of coronavirus and scientists around the world have been frantically trying to come up with a vaccine in fact the pandemic is seen unprecedented mobilization of funding and Research Just in a race to come up with the vaccine that could save millions billions of people around the world so this been called the race for a vaccine and now it looks like russian rights have crossed the finish line in 1st place take a listen. It will pass the registration process however there now needs to be a final stage of trials which is very important we need to be sure that the vaccine is safe. Now if all goes to plan the Health Ministry added that the 1st to be vaccinated would be Health Care Workers and the elderly this would all be free of charge and as soon as this month but a lot of people have expressed trepidation salomes about being amongst the 1st people to be vaccinated or even at all at least this year but we did get a chance to speak to some of the volunteers taken part of the trials so that they. 2 first 3 were in isolation at a Health Resort for 2 weeks that was the preparation period then we were brought here for 20 days i work in Public Catering so im always around people when this started i realized how many people were falling sick so i decided to help there was nothing special just a vaccination it isnt scary its like a fever reducing injection so much as. I feel good there were no problems im a doctor and i work with people and now i dont have to worry about the necessity of protection i can work breathe freely not think about the risks and dedicate myself to the patients. Now all being well Industrial Production of the vaccine is set for september that will be followed by a mass production in october but this big announcement comes just days after the w. H. O. Russia to make sure it was following International Guidelines to produce a safe and effective vaccine this also comes as some scientists around the well its have criticized the speed with which russia has come up with this potential vaccine saying it sounds a lot like a propaganda victory now the race for a vaccine has unsurprisingly brought up this Competitive Edge in countries around the World Everybody wants to be the 1st to come up with a workable vaccine and this with clearly illustrated when last month there were reports that russia had used to. To attack Oxford University scientists who were working on a potential vaccine that this completely was unfounded because it turns out that it was a Russian Company actually working with Oxford University scientists to mass produce this potential vaccine so i think its fair to say we can expect a lot more criticism in scaremongering the coming days and weeks. Erin bringing us the latest on that vaccine then. For further analysis were now joined live by dr mohammad when youre just Lancaster University the w. H. O. Recently said there might never be a quote unquote magic bullet for kobe and yet here we have russia announcing it might have a vaccine should expectations still be managed. Oh yeah absolutely 1st of all thank you very much for having me back on the show again i think we are living in a very strange on president a situation i think we should not expect that any vaccine would be 100 percent effective and basically none of the vaccine is a 100 percent effective the most effective vaccine we have is measles vaccine which have 80 to 90 percent protection so therefore the cone of minus is particularly by the nature of the ground a lot of says it has no Scientific Backing that it would provide 100 percent protection when we hear the news like russian vaccine i dont really dont want any of the Scientific Capabilities of the russian scientists there are certain concerns i think me myself as a search of the media concerned is that i havent seen any what do you know data what based on me to be able to make my own conclusion on onto the i think ac and on to the nature of the Clinical Trial little been set up but otherwise that is merely a living and certainly anything that come of helpful would be considered really positive the pandemic was only declared 6 months ago how has russia managed to develop a vaccine so quickly. I think generally the Vaccine Development is a really lengthy process as we know that is from 10 to 15 years it takes to really develop attacked a vaccine but this time the whole 15 years have been compressed into 8 to 12 months and squeezing another 2 months is still possible mainly by combining phase one and phase 2 trial and phase 2 with the phase 3 trial and particularly talking about the russian vaccine i think its based on at all why this technology the same technology as Oxford University is using and astra zeneca is partnering with them and i think that the russian scientist have one plus because in 2016 they used the same technology to develop to develop a ball of wax in so based on that experience i think its really easy to do we propose a technology and develop a guest account about us how likely do you think it is that the speed at which it was developed will create suspicions over its safety at whether or not corners were cut. Well one thing is pretty clear that any vaccine trial those are being conducted at the moment they all are cutting corners so now the question is how intense how much of the intensity of this corner cutting with the phase one phase 2 and phase 3 trial the information that became available from the russian vaccine i think its more that they are following all the steps that are required to make a vaccine approved fourthly regulatory bodies but the overall number of people who are involved in that trial today are significantly low d for example if we talk about aspirin any talks for using this to vaccine its been trial in 5450000 people and pfizer they are on turkey 1000 people individually that has a rescue vaccine on face retrial is only to hold in people so more people who we in of all the different amount of fees from different age groups pregnant woman people child so that that were real if the profile of the vaccine a lot better than using very small number of people in their in their trial so therefore theyre all suspicion and then there would be some criticism however this is unprecedented situation if it is approved within the ratio i dont think there would be any problem but what about organization or in the European Countries as we heard we do still have the final trial stage but a fresh is that seen does get the all clear while other countries continue working on their own. I think one thing is pretty true is that one vaccine cannot compute cannot be sufficient to last to provide you know 6000000000. 00 if if theres a double doors required 60. 00 to 80000000000. 00 is all at once so live for we need vaccines more than a couple of axioms those are very efficacious and we at kali manor and it can be scaled up so even if one or 2 axioms of the beginning were to be approved still there was a need for another 4 or 5 vaccines however once we reached a vaccine alter what it would be very difficult to have any vaccine approved by the regulatory bodies so until then certainly there is a space to have more approvals dr mohamed money or viral just at Lancaster University thank you so much for finding time to join us on the program today. Search and rescue operations are in full swing and beirut where the death toll is expected to rise following tuesdays blasts in the Capital SupportOfficials Say the explosion killed at least 157 people and injured 5000 more meanwhile french president emanuel micron is in lebanon where hes held talks with top officials and called for an International Investigation into the causes of the explosions some though are questioning the french leaders real motives and ski reports. Police swooped into the lebanese capital in the aftermath of tuesdays devastating explosion his arrival came to live tales of french rescue workers who were sent there to help with those with the best fits and it beat to find any survivors home those lost on tuesday now some say you feel sick a week of being too sort of existence we put that sort of influence of iran on a country that is so full of facts which. Others have said he sees the world stage as he was the 1st foreign leader to make a visit. And the people down here you never see again simply function congressman so at the same time we do the emergency. We need a new Political Initiative and im here to bring her good to coordinate and we look to your plan and internationally need should leave to bring money on and directly to people but the other side we have to launch a new Political Initiative to change that. But he didnt take it well as he waded through those massive crowds there was a particularly poignant moment when he hugged a woman and he said to her i can feel your paying but that moment also led some to question what his real motives were for being in beirut some opposition politicians here in france have been scathing about that visit describing it as a one man hour at that show and others suggesting hes treating lebanon as if its still a french colony. France support for the lebanese people in this strategy is indisputable or the other hand the arrogant and moralizing one man show in which a man has performed today in beirut is in descent barely arrived in lebanon takes himself or the president of the lebanese republic he preaches and claims all by himself. To organize european and International Cooperation the immense misfortune of some reveals the great fantasy about this now president ma calling for his appointed you said he would never have deigned to interfere in lebanese politics but almost in the same grade he said that he would be talking to political leaders in lebanon and he would be holding the but she cant he also said that this visit to have a new political angle because it was a front step was that it would be to be iran or saudi arabia and according to him very interests would be to the detriment of the lebanese people but now that visit by president macaronis being welcomed the aid that hes promised is being welcomed but the reality is when he turned back a to france hes fighting many battles here with his on popular mandate in front the reality is it will means to be seen whether those promises to be true that. Given the sheer scale of the destruction groups of volunteers are assisting with the cleanup in the route people are clearing away debris for apartments and houses and with spirit flow after the tragedy or finding the mood with music. Meanwhile the lebanese capital has also seen more public on the rest people are unhappy about the economic crisis gripping the country those feelings have been aggravated by perceived government incompetence which some claim a lead to tuesdays tragedy the latest protests saw police resort to tear gas. Your global news update continues after this short break. The mc maxwell sucking is one of the most sensational stories of our time however Media Coverage appears to be limited to earth details and political overtones the single biggest question that needs to be answered is how all this could have happened where was long for spin and will justice be served. When almost seemed wrong why dont we all just dont all. Get to shape out just days after. And engagement because the trail. Went cold many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. Welcome back the u. S. State department has issued a new report and which accuses russia of waging a this information and Propaganda Campaign employing a variety of methods among these is the use of kremlin controlled news outlets to push moscows message artist asked taylor takes a closer look. 3 months until the election a virus cool thing up through the country an ailing economy and a future without tech talk americas got its hands full but it will still always find the time on the cash to do a deep dive into russian descent information the kremlin bears direct responsibility for cultivating these tactics and platforms as part of its approach to using information as a weapon it invests massively in its propaganda channels its Intelligence Services and its proxies to conduct malicious i broke to vittie to support the dissent from ation efforts and it leverages outlets that masquerade as new sites to Research Institutions to spread these false and misleading narratives a new report by the state department has zeroed in on russias complex network of fake news and propaganda and basically it tuns out like some kind of new to latent octopus there are 5 pillars to russias this information ecosystem from the government itself to social media but the one that gets the most attention are our news sites which apparently are really busy peddling conspiracy theories but we would never suspect them of being nefarious 20300000 monthly views a wide range of political topics on a fairly quiet twitter account but no it turns out its all. The kremlin in disguise. We found that they promote this information in support of the kremlins goals theyre often promoted directly by the russian government and the push specific disinformation narratives that are picked up by other parts of the ecosystem how intriguing some might say tell me more of this would cry well the state Department Might say theres no hesitance of direct ties with moscow but heres an unrelated example of an alternative news story to stop you from asking questions the heart of Global Research has written many articles on coded 19 containing dissin for me shewn one of them that was published back in march the headline of this is covered 19 coronavirus if a pandemic whos behind it Global Economic social and political destabilisation so from that had line calling it a fig pandemic i think we all recognize its not a free pandemic its real you know now that i think about it i know the perfect person to contribute to the site it will go away if you stay current view thats the same as the flu a lot of people think that goes away in april with the growth of. Theyre politicizing it the report also says that the same site suggests that corona virus was manmade in a bio fell apart tree you know now that i think about it i know and not the person who would just be an invaluable member of this Websites Team i can tell you that there is a significant amount of evidence that this came from that laboratory. With the u. S. Backing so many problems you could ask why release the report now while it could be a coincidence or not but last week secretary of state might compare one with the begging bowl before Congress Asking for a significant increase in funding for the g e c which happens to be the author of this report. The state departments for 2021 requests for the Global Engagement center is 138000000. 00 more than double its current level we wont tolerate this information and other propaganda directed by the kremlin or any of our other adversaries double the budget for the sake of a handful of relatively are no news sites operating 200000 months of us while solid reasoning all i can say is the pump a was going to have to get a much bigger ball when he set his sights on r t would that its not a competition of course but 130000000. 00 monthly of us but my total take oh no hes willing to give to the state departments rewards for Justice Program is offering a reward of up to 10000000. 00 for information leading to the identification or location of any person who acting at the direction for under the control of a Foreign Government interferes with us elections so mike tell me whats a gal go to do to get back on that 10000000.

In august 1 9452 atomic bombs were dropped on the japanese cities of hiroshima and nagasaki and. To this day opinion remains divided as to the real reason behind americas decision to use Nuclear Weapons with no possible military justification for dropping a bomb i have no question that there were those in the u. S. Military who pursued the next as the so during the planning in october of 1945 had chosen 20 targets in russia in the 70 years since the bombings of hiroshima and nagasaki countless books and films have off the many just of occasions for and arguments against dropping the avons however declassified documents give weight to the argument that the bombs were dropped not so its a military necessity to intimidate the soviet union. The 1st ever atomic bomb to be used in wall was in the city if there is steam on the 6th of august 945 well over 100000 citizens were killed those in the hype a sense of what instantly turned into dust while countless others died from the burns and high dose of radiation they received. Over 50000. 00 survivors. Still live in the city each one of them has their own story to tell of the day the bomb fell and i was on my way to meet one. Which from. Since. So i think you will. Have.
