This morning i got a call from the same im an ideal candidate here this is. Theres not much in there looks like a couple of drops. Broadcasting live from our studios in moscow this is our International Thomas certainly have you with us now there has been another turn out of hundreds on the streets of minsk for a protest against the belorussian president the situation flared up right after Alexander Lukashenko was sworn in for a 6th term. Good. There was a heavy Police Presence earlier in the day and some clashes in the capital several demonstrators were injured and dozens were arrested as well now the unrest has been simmering for almost 7 weeks now since the disputed election with people calling on luka shanker to resign and there have also been counter rallies in support of the president rival groups past each other on the streets opponents carrying the red and white flag and the government supporters with the official red and green flag. Has been following the unrest and the Police Response throughout the day. Very tense now police have just fired water cannon behind us theyre still firing what the cabin is a line of policeman now trying to remove the demonstrators from a Central Square here and means hundreds of people 2 perhaps a few 1000 gathered just behind me and literally a few minutes ago police began pressing in on them we saw number of people detained shes an unsanctioned rally the government had ruled that this isnt an unsanctioned rally they had cooled on the demonstrators to disperse but passions are high here theres theres theres a lot of anger among the protesters many of them refused to leave and now theyre being chased by police again they just fired would take out an ad to protest this earlier today of course what sparked it all was the surprised gratian of the better russian president. There was no rated for a seat president ial tub they came as a complete surprise there was a new warning this new hint that it would happen people who learned that he had been inaugurated as he was giving this speech as he as he was giving a speech thanking his supporters saying that the the revolution in ukraine colored revolution in ukraine had failed and that ben. The russians by electing him as their president again had protected their freedoms their independence and peace. Dear fellow by the russians on the solemn day of the president s 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 the inauguration is the day of victory convincing significant within and just elect the president of the country we defended our values our peace our sovereignty and our independence and we still have a lot to do. Theres been a very strong reaction both here in belarus many of the protesters wearing crowds people crowds to. You know gratian of president many people very unhappy that this has happened they had called for and wanted fresh elections including the opposition which formed the council of council to oversee a new elections and to make sure that president who is deposed many of their members ended up leaving belarus for europe the European Union which has taken a much more proactive stance with regards to what is happening in belarus we had senior officials in the in the European Union say that they arent meddling or interfering what theyre doing cant be construed as foreign interference into the Domestic Affairs of better us rather that theyre doing the right thing by supporting the opposition supporting the protesters obviously the government has different ideas calling this calling this meddling but weve also seen condemnation today especially several European Countries are a host of them coming out and saying that they wound recognize the you know gratian of president you can shake of that it was a farce and that hes no longer legitimate president. There was new Free Democratic president ial election valorise so there is no demick. Pratik legitimacy for the ceremony that took place 20. Such a farce forged elections forced integration the former president bill or was does not become less forma quite the contrary his illegitimacy is a fact with all the consequences that this entails. Inaugurated today he has no legitimacy to lead his country he is responsible for president ial elections in belarus free of fair slovakia stands with citizens of belarus. In fact look i shant just retired that means his orders to state power structures are no longer legitimate and cannot be executive i said client housecat and the only leader elected by the belorussian people and our task now is to build a new belarus together i mentioned a little earlier several 100 perhaps a few 1000 demonstrators gathered in the square behind me within 10 minutes they were they were blogging away they were running away they were being charged by police with battens the police had warned them that they should disperse this this was an unsanctioned protest but many of the demonstrators didnt move they chanted for president to leave police begad deploying want to get into trucks spraying water at protesters and now most of them have fled their square bad news is empty for all but police earlier this week the European Union failed to agree on sanctions against a list of 40 below russian officials accused of Election Fraud and violence against protesters journalist and Eastern Europe specialist martin summers believes the western pressure will continue and could push a look at closer to russia. So much is only a question could be probably be agreed at some point but it wont change his position the more internally do is push him more towards. The Russian Federation because of course in many ways he was trying to steer a course between the needs of the Russian Federation and the demands of the west and kurds and of course the local poland Baltic States ukraine very hostile to lucas and co in butler us you could say youve gotten a hold of the from the from the soviets were lots of the soviet world for states has essentially been preserved and that is the reason wally he says hes been in the election this election and the previous 5 elections and if that is why we see him in that position i wouldnt be prepared to stand down just because a minority thinks that he does got a got to go. Russia and germany are continuing to trade accusations and demand answers over how election a volley fell ill the opposition activist has now been discharged from a hospital in berlin after his alleged poisoning and germanys refusal to hand over evidence to russia has sparked an angry exchange between the 2. Theres not the responsibility of the German Authorities to conduct an investigation the crime was committed in russia and thats why urgent appeal to russian side is to comment on the matter. With germany refusing to share samples or in a valley streetman details or later russian investigator talk to him there is no way the russian prosecutors can complete a preliminary proclaimers clearly berlin is a no hurry to share all this information although theyre demanding the pressure taken needed action would get the impression the germans are stolen for time in finding various pretext what sharing their data with russia would believe this is all being done to support the idea being spread in the media that russia does not want to clarify in the valleys illness any such claims are lice. Meanwhile the doctors who have been treating the volley at the charlotte area hospital in berlin say his condition is rapidly improving arties bitter rival oliver has more. While the diplomatic spat between moscow in berlin seems to continue to rumble on alexina valley has improved dramatically while his condition has anyway hes been posting on social media a picture of himself in what seems to be a burden park and which he says in the post that he will continue to work with physio therapist so it follows on from a statement earlier on wednesday in which the shot at a hospital which had been treating the valley said that he was now well enough to be discharged from the care the patient seat of house has improved to such an extent that acute medical treatment can be ended lexan him and he was treated at charity for a total of 32. 00 days 24. 00 days away she was in an intensive care unit physicians considered fully cover repassed basin treatment and the current condition and the long term consequences of the severe poisoning can only be assessed later well it comes as the ministry of justice here in berlin of confirmed that theyve received a 2nd official request from the russian senior prosecutors for information relating to tests carried out on Alexei Novelli those tests that berlin says showed that he was poisoned with a nerve agent from the novacek group well weve also heard from the Foreign Ministry here in berlin as well that say that theyve still to receive any further information from the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons indeed share the information from the valley tests with them waiting for their findings the Foreign Ministry in mesko though is far from happy with what it sees as burlingtons refusal to share information and preference to let this play out in the media System Society to demand were seeing how the west has launched a massive dissent from pain surrounding the Alexander Family situation there is no evidence of russian involvement in what happened there can be no such evidence once again the u. S. And its european allies are consciously ask awaiting tangents with russia preferring systematic confrontation to mimic full constructive cop aeration. When it comes to whats next for Alexei Novelli well a German Government spokesman was asked just that on the web and state he said that he had no further information on the whereabouts of alexina valley or what his plans were. Joe political analyst how rainer roth believes some in the west are using than avali case as a pretext to derail the nord stream to gas supply project look into what really is a military nerve agent which is highly highly poisonous and dangerous. If it had been applied not only what has died within several minutes after being in contact with that substance so its not really likely that novacek really was in the play but not in charge of course plays a great role in the narratives in the media and for me its more important to look at the geopolitical backgrounds of the anglosaxon and the us american powers are in panic about the fact that the nostri to pipeline is about being finished quite soon so they need to give some pretext to the public to oppose the finishing of this major pipeline project because it would bring germany and russia closer together it was it would strengthen both countries economical each year politically and therefore there are great great political or geo strategic economic interests to stop this pipeline project. The russian president has called for a joint global effort to develop vaccines against kobe 19 in his video speech to the Un General Assembly in flight amir putin singled out russias sputnik vien shot the 1st of its kind to be registered and he even offered free doses to u.

Welcome back this is our to international now the French Health minister has announced a range of new containment measures against the crown of virus including the complete shutdown of bars and restaurants in 2 regions the country has seen case numbers spiral since the nationwide lockdown ended correspondent charlie dubinsky has the latest. The red zones is the red zones where weve had active transmission or 900 fires and theyve now been split into subcategories depending on how high or high the transmission rate is in that area well come to that in a moment and discuss what that means for specific departments in france but 1st of all lets have a listen to what her French Health minister had to say because he had this very solemn morning the overall situation continues to deteriorate and we will exceed 100. 00 cases per 100000 inhabitants in the next few hours or days our Hospital System is under great strain if we fail to take measures quickly we could reach a critical threshold in some regions so no department yet is in a state of emergency but there are 2 departments that are in the next category down which is the maximum alert category these areas include must say and guadalupe now that means in those areas there will be new restrictions that come into force from saturday of this week that will mean the full closure of bars restaurants cafes except in those areas that will take place public spaces where they cant demonstrate the really strictest of hygiene measures will also be closed down as well and we know that this is something thats going to take place initially for 2 weeks though of course that could be extended at the end of the 2 weeks if we come to the category just below that this is where enhanced measures are taking place this is cities such as paris the capital city. To lose in many other places across the country whats happening there is we will see now from monday a ban of gatherings of more than 10 individuals. We know that bars and cafes will be closed from 10 pm in the evening we know that demonstrations are Large Group Gatherings that were allowed to be up to 5000 people not being. Reduced down to 1000 people students have been told their parties have been canceled for the forseeable future and we know that extra stricter measures can be put in place by the local authorities in those cities if they should wish to do so this all comes after weeks of what we have seen of increasing rates of covert 19 and we had the latest stats on wednesday that showed that more than 13000 people in the last 24 hours again tested positive for covert 900 that is the 3rd time in the last week that that number has been breached a daily record for france so new covert restrictions coming into force from saturday in some areas a monday from others and they will be restrictions that im sure that wont please everyone.

The report has found that the u. S. Embassy in afghanistan as well as the nato headquarters there have been dumping raw sewage into the kabul river which runs through the capital and much of the country residents are furious with the Living Conditions for People Living downstream have been badly affected for years. Little 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. Because i am always going up so we have a big problem with the river and the United States embassy 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. Because. We Want Companies that can easily build Treatment Plants and we want them to build the plants and deal with the waste problem that.

Action speak louder than words its an old expression but just as true today as it was over 280 years ago when it was 1st coined back in 1736 especially when observing the actions of our great political and military leaders here in washington d.
