The russian opposition activist has been in hospital in berlin for almost 3 weeks now and recently emerged from a coma several german politicians are calling for action to be taken against moscow lets go live to europe correspondent. Tell us about whats been said in the. It was a fiery session on friday afternoon into early evening here in berlin in the german bund the stock the majority of those who spoke with pointing a finger of blame directly at russia and the russian government for what they say was the poisoning of alexei novelli Christophe Martin shoes a senior figure within the social Democratic Party saying that the future of the relationship between russia and germany would have to be completely rethought following what he described as this attack on mr novelli there were some voices that question the official government line not many i have to say but there were some poor hampel from the alternative for Germany Party said that. We did germany think the russian government was so stupid to try and poison alexina valley in the way that would be so easily traced back to them but as i said the majority of the voices worse pointing that finger of blame firmly towards moscow nord stream too was a big issue on the jury in the debate as well basically the german politicians splitting into 3 camps those that want an immediate halt or a stop altogether or work on the gas pipeline that would take russian gas direct from russia into germany under the baltic sea those that want to wait and see what the reaction from russia will be how things will pan out and those who say the project simply must go ahead its worth pointing out that those who are from the Ruling Coalition thats the social Democratic Party is the junior members with Angela MerkelsChristian Democratic Union and the Christian Social Union the Bavarian Sister Party of those. They really were saying that this cant be a unilaterally german decision if they were to to stop the north stream to gas pipeline project they are saying that it would have to. From a european level decided they would be looking to brussels some suggesting they were looking to nato as well to decide on whether the project should go ahead so if a Fiery Exchange between politicians in the bundestag it wrapped up just a short while ago the majority as i say though pointing a finger of blame directly at russia and demanding answers over what happened to alexei novelli ok thanks for going through whats been happening the way you are this friday for now peter oliver in berlin thanks and meanwhile russias foreign minister Sergey Lavrov has urged germany to provide whatever information has on the valleys alleged poisoning. But if the use of your mind you the german representative to the u. N. Said the data is no longer a matter for bilateral relations between germany and russia but a matter for multilateral proceedings what kind of proceedings the germans are talking about they were unable to say in the interests of our german colleagues we urge them to provide all necessary information which might in any way should lights when absolutely unfounded accusations. Of berlin and moscow are both demanding answers germany says its passed on all its information on the election about the case to the Global Chemical weapons watchdog although russia which is a member of the o. P. C. W says nothings been received yet meanwhile russias envoy to the un has responded to western calls for a full investigation this fall uses them can look raise questions well both lead being speech we hear what statements formal and what measures are being mentioned discussed. These leaders leads us to learn the good will reply it will question legion lost in search situations weve won you trace it weve pulled those who used to benefit from this the one that one if you demand explanations will deflect on the table and well compare notes one should with the last elite geishas uncle a very good by evidence even though this is as you seem to be your reasonable novelli fell sick on a flight to moscow last month has played made an Emergency Landing in siberia where he was initially treated doctors there attributed his illness to a metabolic disorder on the film he would eventually airlifted to berlin for treatment bob germany announced that he had been poisoned with a chemical nerve agent from the novacek group and doctors now say the opposition figures condition is improving and hes responding to speech meanwhile as we mentioned earlier senior politicians in berlin are piling the pressure to put north stream 2 out of business over the in a felony case that major gas projects connecting russia to germany is due to be ready by the end of the year political analyst John Laughlin thinks the north stream too is really reality of bridging the divide between russia and europe. Its immediately been joined with the north stream 2 gas pipeline project the germans who previously the german Political Class has previously supported the completion of the gas pipeline very strongly not least because germany doesnt have any other Energy Source and no major cracks are appearing in what was a consensus so the fact that theyre not stream to gas pipeline has been immediately put into the equation into what should be a private Police Investigation shows who would benefit the answer is the american exporters of liquid natural gas and all those in europe who are determined and have been for many years and decades to drive a wedge between europe and russia for the not stream to gas pipeline is not just a symbol although its a very powerful one it is also a reality of bridging the divide between russia and europe and that is what the russian people in europe and in the United States do not want and thats why then of valley business is being immediately joined with not stream to right after germanys announcement last week than of any had been poisoned with nava troponin reached out to nato calling for a joint response and the government sent face questions over why there was any need to involve the transatlantic military alliance. First inspired by how does this all apply to nato and is maybe we should address this question in their motivation to needle itself we have always had that as a violation of the convention on the prohibition of chemical weapons this keys concerns are the e. U. And us needle as well. All over georgia had to be brought in and was brought in for the sake of making this International Issue i didnt actually issue but i think we understand the genesis to the 2 largest ending of the possible cynical motivations of chancellor merkel because it puts the whole context of. It in the 1st year of political dynamics in france and germany and between germany the baltics to poland and there were these and all of these issues are an obese piece the central country is russia. A powerful easing of coronavirus restrictions in france the Prime Minister says the isolation time for people who test positive will be reduced from 14 to 7 days thats despite a new spike in cases with a record 10000 recorded on thursday charlotte events get reports next from paris. I mean the scramble to get ahead of the curve the french government promised 1000000 tests would take place weekly by september and by hook or by crook it has succeeded in doing just that this is just one facility but people can get tested to cope with 19 so much so you get 20 new Testing Centers for the virus to open here in the paris region but the clamor for covert testing has caused other problems Testing Centers are apparently struggling to deal with the volume of people wanting to find out if they happen it there are delays in getting access to the board treating choose it as in paris and elsewhere right now is taking an average of 3 and a half days to get tested the French Health minister hitting on quite a Crucial Point to kill is like this which are not uncommon could contain some people who are infected and indeed contagious the person the symptoms and who may have been in contact with an infected individual has to be tested urgently they must not be turned away from a laboratory because there is no theyll ability we have to work because its not acceptable to options today to get tested wait 7 days for an appointment in a lab wait for hours and sensually on standing under the hot sun i tried the 2nd option but with a 39 degree fever i did not last long i called the labs of raw no places for 7 days plus 5 days to get the results or wait in line for 2 hours while sick and with no Energy Question is a test still relevant if done 7 days after symptoms start while standing in a queue for hours and may be frustrating whats perhaps frustrating people even more are the delays in getting their results people are threatening to sue us because they missed their plane because of the delays in the tests we work like crazy. Everyone is unhappy delays could also mean that even if you tested negative for 19 while waiting for the result you could have contract it but this is not just a problem here in france across the English Channel they are also struggling the Health Minister very though has pointed the finger of blame on people who are symptomatic. Unless you. Actually. Get a test. On the flip side some are suggesting the volume of test taking place in countries like france even though more than a 1000000 a week still isnt enough they are doing 1000000. 00 per week thats not so much for a country of 67000000 people and also what they are doing it for personally so theres no logic theres no strategy and thats not good but if the abortion results already under the cosh wouldnt 10 times the number of tests cause even more of a headache there is a way around this Rapid Testing delivered in that than half an hour which is available at some pharmacies for a fee problem is these new tests a scene is being less reliable leaving some even more confused about what to do than ever so much even risky r. T. Paris. Microsoft is accusing russia china and iran of trying to meddle in the upcoming us election a report from the tech giant says the both a trump and campaigns have been subjected to unsuccessful Cyber Attacks from those countries all 3 have repeatedly denied any such interference with the story.

S. Elections now russia emphasized that they have actually offered to cooperate with the United States regarding Cyber Security and the need to stop hacking and other threats to the country this is the response of both russia and china to claims of interference with them with that of logarithm us on numerous occasions we propose the americans different ways of handling these unfounded assertions of the american civil shes to work with us on these proposals but continue to just to end illegal interference in their internal affairs.

Except this time were not blindsided those hacks are believed to come from overseas russia china and iran its not surprising because weve had Intelligence Briefings and this kind of thing is probably happening now microsoft did not say how these quote unsuccessful attacks were intended to actually hurt the us electoral process no information was really given about what these hacks would have done if they had somehow succeeded however the Us Department of Homeland Security has given a couple hints this is what was said by the d. H. Asks we are aware that microsoft to detected attempts to compromise email accounts of people and organizations associated with the upcoming election none are involved in maintaining or operating voting infrastructure and there was no identified impact on election systems 0 truth was offered to back up these allegations from microsoft and furthermore it is confirmed even by their own report that these alleged hacks have had 0 impact on the election so far and thats still to come the u. S. Is drawing up sanctions against better in the wake of that contested election will get you up to speed on that after the break. It sounds. As the name clear in. The book you saw.

When so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.

Seen me that as a market valuation at one point over 400000000000. 00 and it taps into people to trade me on these are generations and. The robin apps and other forms. Have no fundamental value theres nothing there its just its. Like starlings in the sky they conjure day and then they disperse.

The americans if were very careful not to do really easy which will in turn. Be a ruse and push them towards. Because of the americans would like to present situation there to continue with if you like seated still as a gateway or how a way house between moscow and the west they would like to continue but the present situation is very very difficult and the americans have been very careful in the leg.

It turns out hey alexy is short for hey Keith Alexander yes the Keith Alexander personally responsible for the unlawful mass surveillance programs the caused global scandal and Amazon Web Services has 6 percent of all websites.

I would assume they picked him for his expertise and that is his ability to gather. Intelligence from people in this case presumably through you know amazons. Mechanism you know its a last box if you have one of those alexa devices in your house that it came and listen in to conversations this is based on those conversations devise what types of products it believes you want and you will receive advertising for those products maybe amazon wants to gather information on peoples political inclinations and what could move them to vote in a certain way sure sadly i dont see it provoking outrage amongst most people again i think most people.

As reasonably good youre going to get there but you should check your dish but you must lose showed good there really choice. I refuse to be on the side of people who want to take up guns and kill each other i want to stand intellectual should always i think its their hold up no to violence no to bloodshed yes to think. Less its more like. A new gold rush is underway and. Thousands of ill equipped workers are flocking to the gold fields hoping to strike it rich is a good way out of this by those that work children are torn between gold. From me was very poor i thought i was doing my best to get back to school which side will have the strongest appeal. And in the 1996 something happened different a Company Called purdue pharmaceutical came out with a drug called oxycontin and they started a mere and falsely promoted that opioids were rarely addict maybe only one percent of the time could you get addicted to it no. That was not true. And it is not true and never was true that was a false statement and the other companies jumped on the bandwagon of making money and the false lies spread and the false marketing spread that they are guilty of lying about these tricks they cause the step i believe that with every fiber of my being. Back in 1906 the 1st promotional at campaign for an opioid was broadcasted we found it. We doctors were wrong in thinking that opioids cant be used long time they can be and they should be we used to think theyd stop working all the patients would become addicts or theyd be sedated interconnectivity these 6 cases show how wrong those fears were. In this little film the public was assured with certification. Diction despite its high concentration. Treatment. Can enjoy. It really enjoy. Pain medication i have not missed one day of work and this medication is not turning you into a zombie it just turned me into an active person again. Whereas addiction is the 1st. Farmer. Some patients may be afraid of taking opioids because theyre perceived as too strong or addictive. But that is far from actual fact. Less than one percent of patients taking opioids actually become addicted. Since 1988 doctors have observed patients developing addiction yet in this internal memo a Laboratory Keeps on encouraging us representatives to sell the cost miracle pill using bonuses premiums and all sorts of gadgets in only 5 years oxycontin went from 600000 prescriptions a year to more than 6000000.

In the 1st 6 years of the release of oxycontin produce sponsored 20000 Educational Programs across the United States they gave money to the professional societies to advocate for more opioids the organization that regulates hospitals took money from them the organization that regulates doctors in different states took money from them from all of these Different Directions we were told to prescribe much more the opioid lobby the manufacturers and distributors of opioids spent 880000000 dollars over a 10 year period a walking efforts for more cautious prescribing that they spent 8 times more than the gun lobby in the United States in has spent in trying to block gun regulations. The manufacturers of opiates are spending more money trying to block regulations on opioids. And is disseminated year
