Ever ever done the work that needs to be done they have no option no alternative to what we that is there wedded to this silly Nuclear Deal France germany and the United Kingdom know that the us ceased to be a participant of the chase e. P. O. A full on their withdrawal from the deal on the 8th of may 2008 consequently the purported notification is incapable of having legal effect we remain guided by the objective of upholding the authority and integrity of the United Nations Security Council the original un sanctions covered youre really in richmond as well as the buying and selling of conventional weapons they were lifted under the 2015 nuclear deal however 2 years ago the troubled ministration withdrew from the pact washington say he said sticking action because an arms embargo on iran expires in october irans president Hassan Rouhani has denounced the move saying his country will never give in to pressure while the arena and Foreign Ministry has urged washington to rethink pay homage to random washington on tehrans message to washington is clear return to the Global Community return to your obligations stop the rebellion and then the Global Community will accept you. We heard from political analyst forwarders r. T. He thinks the u. S. Is isolated in its approach to iran. Not in the part thats going to accept that premise. The u. S. Is isolated in the unusual manner and whats going to happen is that the u. S. Is going to use force to pressure other countries to accept the good interpretation of the Un Resolution 2231 and few countries are going to accept that the u. S. Has a history of mongering so you always have to be careful but the United States Foreign Policy so we have this. Conflict escalating if we hope that the president is not interested in the dog.

Russian opposition figure alexina valmy continues to recover at a hospital in berlin after coming out of an engine is coma but the diplomatic standoff between moscow and berlin over his alleged poisoning has only gotten worse monday germany said lobs in sweden and france independently verified that in a volley was poisoned by a nerve agent from the novel group the Global Chemical weapons watchdog is also allies in the samples russia has requested that information on the case be shared but so far to no avail. Because their excuses are completely contrived germany says it cant tell us anything in direct to the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons weve been to the o. P. C. W several times and they say talk to berlin we are ready to talk to anyone but not when in the absence of facts we are pressured into giving an account of ourselves on the basis of specific clearly formulated concerns we are always ready to have a professional conversation. Russian doctors find no trace of noble charcoal or any other poison while a volley was in their care moscow has repeatedly stressed its willingness to cooperate with germany to establish just what happened to the looks of the controversy surrounding the case. Of ali is recovering whatever it was killing his body is on retreat and the politician seems to be almost out of these woods so concerns over his health make room for concerns over what exactly happened and europe is demanding that russia aids the investigation installations arise which only the russian government can and must answer we continue calling us here to investigate this our demand is that russia urgently explain what happened well russia has already contributed by not letting alexina die in the 1st crucial hours after the politician fell sick russia contributed by opening its airspace to a team of german doctors letting them visit russia contributed by eventually putting him on a german rescue plane allowing the value to be airlifted to berlin and by offering its medical data to german colleagues so now russia says the ball is in germanys court moscow current aid the investigation if its kept in the dark on emerging evidence to the press with enough when it all all this is taking place against the backdrop of facts that our propose. Was to berlin to jointly sort out what happened i being dismissed and a far fetched pretexts thats hurdles are brought into the race because berlin starts playing a game of all take and no give russia can get the results of the expertise made in german labs since it will reveal too much of the german armys capabilities too much but only to russias eyes apparently because berlin had no problem with sharing its data with almost 200 other nations Member States of the or b c w we are very negatively the fact that germany refusing to assist the russian Law Enforcement agencies secretly transferred no boundaries test data to its trusted partners it is clear that this was done with a political purpose so that france and sweden would automatically confirm berlins unfounded accusations against russia but wait russia is a member state of the o. P. C. W. And that means it finally has all the time in the world to scrupulously study everything the germany could find right wrong the only thing that it actually means is that russia can hope on the merry go round of rejections because berlin tells moscow it can get everything from the or b c w and the o p c w saying the exact opposite bumping russia right back to berlin russia is in a loop which doesnt really help o. P. C. W. s reputation with moscow as russia had previously accused the un bag watchdog of becoming politicized bureaucracy dont you like so Many International concessions its always great to be subject to political pressure and thats critically from of course those the fund it largely funded much largely the western powers weve seen with the p. C. To abuse role in interest to go to alleged Chemical Attacks in syria but its investigations have tended to ascribe blame up. When we dont where is inconsistences and problems that will not rise in independent investigation but there appears to be scope for political interference and pressure to take close we saw a similar situation in respect to the house when. It was very reluctant to share its information with russia in respect of it what do you have to discover in terms of chemical analysis and so on giving no access to evidence keeping waters murky playing every bureaucratic trick in the book this is how the e. U. Is shutting out russias investigators also raising the sanctions guillotine over the country almost like it wants no investigation from russia but an immigration admission of guilt well this video was posted some days ago on the Bali Instagram account shows his teen searching his hotel room in thompson shortly after novelli felt sick wearing surgical gloves they collect evidence in plastic bags which according to the post were passed to the German Authorities one of the Water Bottles they submitted was said to contain traces of novacek but one of the cocreators of that very nerve agent leonid brink claims if it was used then the valley wouldnt have made it to the plane. Valmy wouldnt have been able to leave the hotel thats if it was normal junk and he really touched it or drank something 1st of all even in smaller not very toxic doses provokes pupil contraction in such a way a person would be almost blind so could barely move so even with only very mild exposure he wouldnt have been able to get on a plane there are photos of him in the hotel in the plane in the russian hospital and yet we cant see any of the symptoms poisoning and novacek a not worse to use for this case. Its just that they definitely would get something they had just simple surgical gloves and thats it and also imagine a bottle that has traces of the substance on the outside it would be a very smart person who would try to fill a bottle with such a dangerous liquid and spill it all down the sides creating a dangerous situation for everyone. A small group of wealthy nations has already bottle all future supplies of covert vaccines which are currently at the Research Stage thats according to a report by the Oxfam Charity it means that only 13 percent of the worlds population will initially have access to the drugs mark slawson the head of oxfams inequality policy division sees pharmaceutical companies are seeking to maximize profits its extremely dangerous for the world because a rich nations are monopolizing the supply of a potential. But more importantly theyre doing deals with big pharmaceutical corporations which are defending their intellectual property and their profits meaning that the supply of vaccines and being artificially limited. Oxfam also say is there will be another vaccine doses to meet global them and the 5 leading vaccine candidates are currently under. Going stage 3 Clinical Trials however even if all 5 proved to be a success which according to the charity is extremely unlikely around 2 thirds of the worlds population will still have to wait until 2022 at least on top of potential drug shortages oxfam sees quote the vaccine deals lay bare the inequality between prosperous developing countries. Well to give an example the u. K. Has managed to secure up to 5 doses per person depending of course on the trials go wild for in stark contrast the figures you can see there is one dose per 9 people lost again sees that prolonged all available a t. Of the vaccine in some countries will result in many unnecessary deaths. Companies like madonna in the us are only sending them back saying 2 very rich countries theyre setting it up barry high priced somewhere between 16. 00 and 35. 00 a dose and you have to have 2 doses so thats like 70. 00 per person so they are berry clear that they are there doing things to make a profit and they want to make money from this vaccine what were saying is we need a peoples backs not a profit back saying we need to see. The breaking down of these patent barriers and we need to see open sharing your banks in technology to maximize the supply side and effective vaccines all over the world as soon as possible the huge economic and human cost of. In the viability of the vaccine if you think of countries like india or south africa brazil if these countries are not getting access to safe and a point to that saying until 2022 then they would have more lockdowns their economies would be huge trouble many many people would dog do not need to because the vaccine has been how to fish in the russian and private profits of pharmaceutical corporations youre tuned in to our recap of the weeks big news story still to come the israeli Prime Minister is the solution to send the country into a 2nd lockdown has caused widespread anger about story plenty more besides cycles. Is your media a reflection of reality. In the world transformed. What will make you feel safer. Isolation community. Are you going the right way or are you being led. By. What is truly lost his faith. In the world corrupted you need to descend. To join us in the depths. For a mate in the shallowness. Join me every thursday on the alex simon show and ill be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business im show business ill see you then. A look at the shortage of covert 19 testing in the United Kingdom has led teachers to question the safety of reopening schools people stuff are among those struggling to get checked arties picks up the story. It wasnt so long ago that seamier british politicians were promising that it was safe for children to finally go back to school i think the crucial thing is that pupils get back to school its much much better for their for their health and Mental Wellbeing their jobs their educational prospects weve made it clear this is compulsory parents do need to be sending their children back to school all scientific advice is that schools are safe its only a few weeks into the new terminal ready those claims are coming unstuck one Teaching Union is warning that education secretary Gavin Williamson may face legal action because they say schools were opened without proper safeguards being put in place teachers are founding the alarm but a chronic lack of Testing Facilities means that id occasionally england may grind to a halt the staff and pupils are forced to stay home School Managements have been doing everything they chant but the government has failed to do their side of things testing is impossible to get i will go social distancing isnt possible in full class sizes i mean infection rates are going up so we have an absolutely chaotic situation where understandably and correctly pupils and staff are being sent home and they have potential sitting timbs but nobody knows if its just a cold or coverage and its a completely lost story and of course the danger is that there will be some situations where in fact we did have an infectious child in the sco but nobody knows because we cant get a test to check one way or the other facing the lack of testing more than 200 school and College Leaders said stuff and pupils couldnt get tests locally and were being directed to test centers long distances away and with the government mandating no more than 6 people to meet at a time that encouraging students to get back into the classroom your thirtys the knowledge that the whole situation is in quite some chaos every school has a small supply of home test kits for those. Teachers that conduct Testing Center teacher who tested positive had to wait a week for her results i dont deny that it is an enormous challenge with children and teachers unable to get access to tests and essentially being told to get to the back of the queue if they want one union need to say that the government has failed to prepare despite having had months to do so in fear of the country could go back into defacto lockdown once more children are being sent home who cannot get tests and parents are being forced to take 2 weeks off to look after them we will end up with an effective lock down there is an escalating sense that they were end up with a return to lockdown by default its not just with regard to the testing the schools are finding themselves short they also appear to lack the basic hygiene the citys nearly a 3rd of teachers didnt know if theyd have adequate supplies of soap and water while just 18 percent had had from the tides then every classroom its left parents to question how they supposed to feel that their children will be safe in school when teachers themselves dont seem all that convinced misuse of keep schools open and clear but they have to be so violent and wont leave the farm.

Its very frustrating its killing the economy and many people feel like there is no hope and they dont know what is going on its probably a good thing because cases are rising that the roof so thats what were going to do but i dont think its going to help i expect that infections will go down but theyll go right back up as soon as the closer hands honestly it doesnt affect me at all where i live 500 meters i go anywhere i want i do anything i want people i still see dont wear a mask so i really dont understand how this is going to help anything. You may just take inspiration from this one a former real weight worker in italy has become the oldest person ever to graduate from university the residents of palermo survived the Great Depression world war 2 and he fulfilled his lifelong dream this summer at the age of 96 he told us his story. That after working i retired and said what do i do now i didnt like doing nothing so i started studying.

Water guy or documentary calling the human side of trumps wall next scene from both sides of the border from both points of view that begins in moment stay with us.
