6 pm in the russian capital on Daniel Hawkins welcome to the program and is continuing to mount on russia over the alleged nerve agent poisoning of prominent opposition figure. Germany says its called irrefutable evidence that was used against him moscow those. Has again called on bought in to openly share its findings and the us President Donald Trump has also said he hasnt seen any proof. Well i dont know exactly what happened i think its its tragic its terrible and shouldnt happen we havent had any proof yet but oh i will take a look there have been International Calls for transparency from russia in an investigation into what happened to alexina valmy the Russian Foreign minister sergei a lover of has said moscow has nothing to hide when it comes to mist in the found me he says russia is still waiting though for requests for information to be answered. But its we have already commented on this and said we have nothing to hide the soon as alex in the valley fell ill the plane was grounded and necessary measures were me julie taken this soon as he was transported to germany and those who were demanding information from russia went silent and did not demand anything from berlin this is all following the same old scenario we hear public accusations against russia in the fischel requests to berlin from a Prosecutors Office have so far gone unanswered we were promised today that we would soon receive response as soon as we get the facts we will react accordingly this is all reminiscent of what happened with this group poles may it or secretary general again stoltenberg has his mind made up though he says International Action needs to be taken however he stopped short of saying what form that should take we strongly believe that this is a blatant violation of International Law so it requires an International Response. But i will not speculate about exactly what kind of International Response were seeing at the moment is warnings and demands flying backwards and forwards the french and German Foreign ministers issued a joint statement on friday evening in which they call a dent an attack against mr novelli weve also heard from the german federal. President s friend volta steinmeier he said being a volley case has the potential to cause real problems in the relationship between in moscow and in vienna weve seen moscows representative summoned to the Foreign Ministry to discuss the novelli case i consider the demands russia conduct a quick open and comprehensive investigation in appropriate in the absence of any information facts or specific data from germany or any response to the russian prosecutor generals request made on the 27th of august its over a week since moscow requested information from berlin regarding the tests that were carried out on alexei in a volley on friday the German Government confirmed that they had received that request however getting that information over to russia might not be as simple as all out. Had to write at the request was forwarded by the minister of justice to the Justice Department in berlin today in the morning as usual we cant comment on any cooperation regards an internal matters of the investigation so. Does that mean russia has not received anything from the ministry of justice or any other responsible oath already as they have already just sad the federal government has approved their westphalen you told Legal Assistance or speaking in plain language no other information has been given is that right. I reacher a to what i have just said moscow has requested this information because the tests that were carried out in the russian hospital where lex in the valley was 1st treated showed no trace of any toxin in his system and tests for poisons all came back negative effect to investigative measure assure being carried out and if the information about the presence of a poisonous substance in the patients biological samples is confirmed then of course we will open a day jury investigation its 2 weeks since Alexei Navalny has been here in berlin being treated the shot a tape hospital physicians say there is no were cute risks to his life at the moment however there is the potential for long term effects from this illness or today the Russian Foreign ministry claimed if it was use that didnt mean it necessarily came from russia in connection with a dogmatic assertions that toxic near be known in the west as know every child were developing our country it is necessary to remind people of the following for a number of years specialists from many western countries and specialized need of structures have worked on the compounds included in this extensive group of kamma calls for example developers their military applications have officially obtain more than a 150. 00 p. Tins. Of Foreign Affairs columnist the merit is your skis says when it comes to who is responsible there are still many questions that need to be answered. To jump to the conclusion that there is one obvious arts to what happened to divine it its very simplistic because if you look at the balance of advantage say you know who takes an advantage out of whats happened i think its a huge liability for the kremlin and for russia to be seen to have launched an attack on one of the most colorful and interim interim members of the opposition that it reinforces as weve seen a very negative image of russia in the west i think the relations between the west and specifically europe and russia word starting to warm up after the the freeze over ukraine after 2014. Weve seen i would say a slightly different approach to diplomacy from russia over the last few months now all those things are certainly at risk because of whats happened and because of the way its interpreted which is why i think maybe its much more complicated why would the kremlin do this at this point its owned it become an International Issue because you never knew was airlifted out to germany and the german doctors made the findings that they did. Notice said well its an International Issue because whenever you were such an important figure that this was an attack with a chemical weapon and therefore its subject to International Conventions im not sure that nato is mandated to run or mandate of anybody really outside russia runs to saying what should happen inside russia. Last month russia became the worlds 1st country to register a. Coronavirus waxing despite worldwide fears it had massively cut corners the country now says its ready to move ahead with more widespread testing meanwhile its scientists finally published their 1st findings into the job showing it does produce an antibody response with more details heres one core set of. Back in the 11th of august russia became the 1st country to register a vaccine against 19 now more data became available just last friday that show that sputnik the vaccine pretty successfully produced antibodies in all 76 participants in early stage trials now other trials discovered that all patients not only developed antibodies but also non all of the participants showed any side effects whatsoever now a study was also published in the lancet which is one of the most respected medical journals in the world and a Russian Direct Investment Fund c. E. O. Says that that study answers many questions that have a listen because it is a part of the Clinical Trial results of the sputnik b. Vaccine published in lancet the worlds leading medical journal shows to russia is leading the way in developing in corona virus vaccine and it answers a lot of questions from western critics specifically the journal report concluded that there were no serious adverse consequences among volunteers to prevent seen and there was a very strong in time unit response due to the development of antibodies it found that a vaccinated person produces 1. 00 times more empty bodies do in an average person infected with karuna virus the head of moscows censor thats the center who developed the vaccine says that the antibodies that will remain in the patient for a period of years now some of russias top officials have already been inoculated with this of the vaccine people like moscow mayor sergey sabean the like defense minister sergei short go and even the let him of putins own daughter was inoculated as well but that happens much earlier now when speaking to Vladimir Putin moscow mayor said that the only side effect that he experienced was sue our headache and that he is fine and now well this is of course all in contrast very much in contrast with the concerns that. Were voiced earlier that russia is really whoring there is creation of this vaccine in order to be the 1st in the world in the fight against coal with 19 well the way things are now according to the Health Ministry a rush is ready for max vaccination as soon as november or december and so far 3 clinics in moscow have received the vaccine for 3rd stage trials and they are now ready to welcome of volunteers now once the United Nation the process begins here at home russia will be ready to send the vaccine abroad as well so for many foreign governments have already expressed interest in this food and the vaccine and according to officials there are now over when c. Requests for hundreds of millions of doses and despite publication of the findings it seems theres still plenty of skepticism the u. S. Secretary of state pompei accused russia and china of powering the vaccines to market for political reasons we discussed the issue with professor of molecular in the u. K. Lawrence. I think its a very important step in the way to develop an effective vaccine its a very interesting study like many vaccine studies its still relatively early days but it does demonstrate that the vaccine developments particularly in the ability to what we call crime boosts the response to give 2 doses of slightly different vaccines that give you an even better response and that is something that this article reports on which i think is a very Important Development but again we have to be slightly cautious because its relatively small numbers and we look forward obviously to seeing more data particularly as this that scene goes into phase 3 or understand there are going to be Something Like 40000 volunteers vaccinated but were working together as an International Group of immunologists and biologists to fight this vaccine and this is a very important step in that part. China will seek to rid itself of a significant amount of the u. S. Debt at home it holds thats according to an expert quoted in the state backed global times it comes amid high tensions between beijing and washington. China will gradually decrease its holdings of u. S. Debt to about 800000000000. 00 under normal circumstances but of course china might sell all of its u. S. Bonds in an extreme case like a military conflict. Well china owns more than a trillion dollars of u. S. Debt only japan has more beijings already been off loading some of its share dumping 100000000000. 00 worth in 2020 u. S. Issued debt is for cost almost equal american g. D. P.

Mike spectators are there when in the turmoil the dollar will go higher it will get overpriced it might even turn into a bubble because there are very few alternatives but that will probably be the last shot us is now the largest debtor nation in the history of the world and its getting higher and higher every day im not the only person who knows that and other people will get worried traditionally the us dollar has been the sounders currency in the world where tradition changes once upon a time it was the british pound once upon a time it was the danish crime in the dutch guilder Currency Exchange history changes and im an american so i dont particularly like saying it but im afraid the us dollar is coming to its century or so dominance and Something Else will replace it.
