P. C. W. The organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons in the aig now weve also had confirmation from the Foreign Ministry here in berlin saying that the o. P. C. W. Still havent give them any results were still waiting on that i think we can expect that coming in the next few weeks arthur and political analyst Mark Macaulay told us that not only a speedy recovery calls and to question the claims that he was poisoned with a military grade nerve agent. We know looking at a situation where several 30 in western europe recognize it as a nerve agent looking to the north and your group. Down there is no up and walking and really going into convolutions its a remarkable recovery because people are talking words here among the in hospital for several months and suddenly being released the key thing here is of course that. Most present doesnt have. For the moment your nerve agent and that is the most difficult thing to them because how do you investigated if you dont know what it is. Alexander look at shango has been inaugurated for a 6th term as president of belarus a month earlier than expected event went ahead without an advance public announcement and after more than 7 weeks of unrest following his defense disputed reelection a ceremony took place at independence palace and minsk looks like i took the oath with his hand on the constitution a scene thats become familiar to all russians since he 1st took office 26 years ago he gave a speech thanking his supporters for preventing a socalled Color Revolution that meaning an uprising against the government r. T. Senior correspondent ryan ghazi have reports from belarus. It was a complete surprise to everybody in belarus the 1st boarding that something was up was convoys of police blocking off road streets at driving to and fro around the city then the president ial called seat in full parade formation driving for driving for it official residence by the time the fact that the dog ration was taking place became Public Knowledge press that took shaker had been sworn in for his 6. Dispy each of which he thanked belorussians for their support for their faith even said he would do Everything Possible to make sure. That they werent disappointed by his presidency he also said that but by backing him they had passed a test of enduring of their belief so that they had voted for peace and protected the independence and freedom of belarus. Dear fellow by the russians on this solemn day the president of the state and the people with special feeling with a lot of pride for both the russians who have passed with the honor the test of strength in their beliefs ration is the day of victory convince an insignificant we didnt just elect the president of the county we defended our values our peace our sovereignty and our independence and we still have a lot to do. Obviously not everyone is happy with this you know gratian with the way it was carried out and especially with president being sworn in for a 6th already protests are erupting around means small scale but by 6 oclock the opposition has called for for mass rallies for everybody whos against presently shaker to come out and to voice their their their disbelief of what is happening and to voice that anger at present being sworn in for a 6 weve seen of course for a month very strong protests especially during the weekend all over belarus hundreds of thousands of people as many as tens of thousands this weekend especially people coming out and saying you know weve had enough johnson for him to leave chanting for new elections and that is what the Opposition Coordination CouncilOpposition Council has been being formed to do to guarantee new elections that would varying times theyve stated different goals up to this deposing of president. Europe has come out stronger and stronger support of the opposition weve heard the foreign minister of the European Union say that. What europe is doing supporting the opposition would be construed as meddling because theyre doing the right thing and they will consider it long as you can also get a rival of president. Elected who has since left for europe fled to europe theyve theyve welcome to is a highly placed official and theyve backed her and called for fresh elections obviously we. Expect a much more reaction already the foreign minister of the 3 way mia has been to school do you know gratian and present. Thoughts saying he was completely illegitimate in the at the direction and hes integration of fraud. Reliable safe and effective. Pioneering russian code vaccine sputnik me the 1st fresh start of its kind speaking at the Un General Assembly put in stress World Leaders need to find a way to make the job really accessible to everyone and even offered free doses to any one worker but would you leave them all ready to share experience and continue to cooperate with all countries and International Organizations this includes the distribution of a russian vaccine to other countries which has proved its reliability safety and efficiency sure its ready to provide the un with top notch assistance particularly we offer a vaccine free of charge for voluntary vaccination of u. N. Personnel and entities we have received requests from or un colleagues and we will remain indifferent to. The 3rd stage of cover 1000 vaccine trials is underway in russia here in the capital about 40000 are expected to take part in the tests our correspondent maria phenomena was one of those who got shot. Its vaccination day for me and finally this morning i got a call from the queen mothers day and i am in israel candidate for that i have chorus took a number of tests and went through a thorough screening. Now its time for a final check with the doctor before getting the shots good afternoon. And the last alys of pregnancy tests that was due to make sure its safe for me to receive a vaccination. Right now i am ready the vaccine doses are stored in the freezer they take out each of those immediately before the injection of the he tracks and is individually allocated ever beijing has a specific code and it has this card on marked on it meanin is assigned to a particular patient. It could be either the real or back scene where to say the number is you who 06 to seeks. The number is correct for. Question no you know as you know many times your work there im afraid to be there of course im not afraid to do you see this magazine contains marrieds a lie in on death coronavirus there was this means i cant get infected with called it rain and of course i wont be able to transmit it to anyone without us here look this is your vaccine lone from theres not much in there that looks like a couple of drops. Will occur you know. So im about to make the injection ok i am ready. But what did it feel like like a normal shot for words like a mosquito bite as they usually tell my daughter. So ill get the 2nd half. The death toll from the coronavirus reached a tragic milestone in the us on tuesday surpassing 200000 after the figure was confirmed a moment of silence was held in Congress United states has suffered the largest loss of life due to coronavirus by brazil the number of confirmed cases in the us now stands at more than 7000000. The pandemic has taken a disproportionate toll on ethnic minorities in the u. S. Official data shows that hispanics and africanamericans are almost 5 times as likely to be hospitalized due to coated and while black people make up just 12 percent of the population they count for 21 percent of coronavirus deaths in america were not going to bring in live martin cold or for a professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School in the u. S. For more on this now as we mentioned the u. S. Death toll has surpassed 200000 theres been 5000 more deaths since yesterday do you think the government has lost control of the situation. I think the government is trying to control is it. The way the u. S. Just the work is. The responsibility or want. To measure to do so in a sense its 50 states. Well in others the. Reports have shown that the death toll among africanamericans has been disproportionately high how would you explain that. So. With corbett there is a huge difference in risk by age so older people have more than a risk of mortality from korea compared to young people so everybody can get in fact that. Its the older people who act that high risk of older people cohabit its much more dangerous to actually run our children its my flat so the best strategy to deal with. It is then to do as much as we can to protect the high risk elderly people. While younger people should be able to live their lives more normally that will in the long term minimize the number one time it did not work out of it. President trump has defended his handling of the pandemic saying if it wasnt for him you could have 2000002. 00 and a half or even 3000000. 00 dead at this point how would you rate his performance since the start of penn demick given the fact that yes as you did mention it is a state by state basis but there can be nationwide measures and theres also been many accusations of him downplaying the pandemic. Well the role of the federal government is to provide advice from the centers for Disease Control for example to. Provide financial resources. To my knowledge did you see that kind of attitude control well never. Proposed that schools should be closed so thats been the local decision and i think its very important in the United States schools. Or in person. Teaching very important for the children we know that children are very low risk because. Much less from them going in from abroad dampening sweden the school was never closed during the pandemic. From a just want child care to age 151800000 children there were not a single inquiry 9000 feet and just by going to school for the pandemic so we know that the children are very low risk and we know that teachers are no higher risk than other professions so its very important for decades now for the for the physical and Mental Health of children but they can go back to school very impressive teaching but the best will be right here right now. If we continue looking at europe weve seen lockdown lifted and no restrictions being put back in place and a number of countries do think that those governments acted too soon. I think what the problem is that many governments and europe has gone for a lot but our. Ages so the same for all ages and we have to. We have to use the fact is corbett is very very dangerous for the elderly but not for the young so we have to use that. To allow the young to give more more normal life. Barely and also and so the key thing is not whether you should more long or less than in general the key thing is what the elderly we have to prepare a much better with various measures. For the younger people we should let them live their last month. Medicine at Harvard Medical School martin called our thank you for joining us on the program today because so much. U. K. Has also seen a surge in case numbers prompting the Prime Minister to unveil new coronavirus restrictions as a further step back to Boris Johnsons anti pandemic timeline is only hope now is that the situation will improve by next spring i do want people to start to go back to work now if you can and allow a more significant return to normality from november at the earliest possibly in time for christmas and they want doctors and or medical advisors they are unanimous things will be far better by the spring people are now required to work from home if they can masks are mandatory for taxi drivers and passengers and Rule Breakers will be fined 200 pounds for a 1st offense from thursday all pubs bars and restaurants will shut at 10 pm many are already ridiculing what they see as an arbitrary 10 pm deadline with numerous means now doing the rounds on line one bar owner says the rules are extremely damaging to his business and make little sense whatsoever. Everyone knows its a tough time everyones trying to support businesses that they want to see get through this to represent something to their communities you know where wells start is providing jobs for lots of people 80 percent of our trade by estimations that i did not actually happens up to temp so thats quite a significant chunk that were taking out of our. Revenue stream im going to need more support to start if they dont want to see mustard on that says im certainly going to need support on rent because we havent been on space the last 6 months weve got another month to tomorrow and then god knows whats going to happen for the next 6 months everyone in this country whos in a sort of relatively unaffected age bracket young people from 18 up 4045250 theyre just going to go home and continue to party there we put so many measures in place and spent a fortune on making all of our license venues coded secure the surely the most sensible place to have people consuming trinkets and keeping safe keeping socially distanced is within these premises. Is that a british doctor an academic Professor John ashton who says the government has to rebuild trust since the 1st walk down. This is very real sense of deja vu about the last couple of weeks certainly lots of your days it feels like a lot surely over again the beginning of march when the numbers of new cases began to double every 2 or 3 days so the real problem the fundamental problem at the moment is how do you reassess dovish trust because weve really stuck with drastic measures when we shouldnt have to have drastic measures if we take on the people on this tough journey from the beginning well what we have to do is to really properly put the local regional authorities the local governments and so the local Public Health directors in charge and instead of stirring actually literally billions of panels at these private companies to lloyds and serco and other. Those who are sailing to deliver the test intray shouldnt people getting results after several days by which time theyve infected other people putting all at risk into local Public Health teams and rebuilding them very quickly.

A report has found that the u. S. Embassy in afghanistan as well as nato headquarters there have been dumping raw sewage into the river kabul which runs through the capital and much of the country residents are outraged with the Living Conditions for those living downstream badly affected for years. All that said though why is the u. S. Embassy leaving its sewage in this river it all comes to us we cannot sleep at night because of the smell and. We have a big problem with the river and the United States embassy and they dump their sewage in the river every afternoon. Since the Wastewater Treatment plant is not functioning and its canals are damaged the sewage from the dumping site goes directly into the kabul river. So we Want Companies that can easily build Treatment Plants and we want them to build the plants and deal with the waste properly.

Americans are divided not divided on the widening institutions assigned to unite citizens our childs ideology has become exclusionary and intolerant the Supreme Court is now the realm of partisan politics and worst of all political opponents are deemed the enemy is there a way out of this downward spiral. Cross knocking about in america im joined by my guest roy rightly topping in dayton she is an attorney conservative commentator as well as contributor at the hill and in washington we cross to me show process she is in a crowded strategist and a political analyst right across like rose in fact that means you can jump any time you want and i always appreciate it ok let me go to rory and dayton and preparing for this program about the divide in american politics. It came to my mind that before the American Civil War we said the american the United States are an after the civil war he said the United States is because in the end its very in its a very interesting discourse of difference because when we look at it as a collective of states making a country and now after the civil war we look at it is unified here and it seems to me were. Digressing back because its the United States are now because all of the divisions that we have and we have this mantra of blues daves red states and as i said in my introduction theres a lot of hostility to it to people that you deem as your opponent how do you reflect upon that well im glad that you brought up the civil war because as we talk about how polarized things are and how much we point to people as the enemy i think thats important Historical Context break up when people talk about this being unprecedented its not really any in this country didnt fact have a civil war 100
