On thursday here in moscow welcome to world news from r. T. International russias accusing germany of using various pretexts to withhold information on the election about in the case of the russian opposition figurehead recently came out of a coma way hes being treated for an alleged poisoning and moscows permanent representative to the Global Chemical weapons watchdog says all requests for data have so far been denied hes been speaking with r. T. The Russian Federation has been waiting for answers from our german colleagues the general Prosecutors Office has sent 2 requests for Legal Assistance unfortunately we have not received any answers there were various explanations from the german side firstly there were references to National Secrets the german said they were afraid of revealing secrets and german technologies during our specialist acquaintance with the results of the analysis in a boon to swear laboratory. Then our german colleagues started talking about the necessity of the prior approval of look sane of all these relatives after that they referred to in a volley himself all in all the germans have delayed the response in every possible way through deliberately delaying the process impeded the completion of the preliminary inquiry in russia that was held in order to ascertain whether there is an offense or not and then to start an extensive investigation into the case that dealt with the russian citizen on russian territory. Its like a vicious circle on the one hand german officials said that they were ready to refer the case to the o. P. C. W. And the case becomes a multilateral one on the other hand the o. P. C. W. Claims that they will not share the information without the consent of the germans that is why we have taken some measures weve sent a letter to the germans Permanent Missions to the o. P. C. W referring to article 9 paragraph 2 we requested the german side to provide us with comprehensive information on a whole range of questions relating to involve these case we are talking about test results biological and clinical samples and everything connected with this case german colleagues are required to respond within 10 days the countdown has already started on the veld he is now being discharged from hospital in his doctors say a full recovery is possible but the potential long term effects are uncertain russia and germany meanwhile continue to demand answers over the case. When this. Is not the responsibility of the jewel of the forwards is to going to. 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 in no hurry to share all this information although theyre demanding that russia take a needed action to get the impression the germans are still in free time in finding various pretext to what cheri they data with russia believe this is all being done to support the idea being spread in the media that russia does not want to clarify in the balinese illness any such claims are lice and germany claims alexina valmy was poisoned with a substance from the north Group Although the scientists who created the deadly nerve agent are disputing that finding political analyst rana Office Thinks the circumstances of the alleged poisoning are still shrouded in doubt. Look into what really is a military nerve agent which is highly highly poisonous and dangerous. If it has been applied not by any 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 narrative for me its more important to look at the geopolitical backgrounds of the last acts and the u. S. American powers are in panic about the fact that the north stream 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 what bringing germany and russia closer together it was it would strengthen both countrys economic politically and therefore there are courageous great political and geo strategic economic in. Doctors. Regional leaders in france are pushing back against the government over a new set of tough coronavirus restrictions raft of new measures were unveiled on wednesday after a spike in case numbers show the 2 bensky report next from paris well the Health Minister in france has outlined it new restrictions which sparked this war of words on social media between himself and local officials what he announced on wednesday evening is that 2 departments in france weve placed into a maximum alert so in that means that from saturday for 2 week period a limited period were told there will be a closure of bars and restaurants people wont be able to go out to some public spaces and the 2 areas impacted are guadalupe and mar say now we know that restrictions have been divisive people have been unhappy about them in the past but nobody nobody could have predicted the fear is reaction by mar ses own mare i was astonished and angry with the decision the city of massey did not consult anyone nothing related to the Health Situation can justify this announcement i do not accept the fact that we are the victims of political decisions that no one understands well other elected officials were equally as angry with the president of one of the local regions impacted describing this as being collective punishment but the Health Minister hit back and said that he did consult with the local officials before making those in ants mints. The decisions announced this evening and on them the most are for the people of must see are aimed precisely as protecting them while all the Health Indicators are very degraded not so says the regional president too says that a call from the Health Ministry in the moments before these restrictions were announced did not constitute a consultation and he has argued that these decisions were taken unilaterally by the french government now other restrictions have also been put in place for areas such as here in paris paris is now on an enhanced alert area which means that from monday next week bars will have to ship by 10 pm in the evening theyll be a restriction on gatherings no more than 10 people gathering together in public settings and we know that sort of large scale events like protests where they were allowed to be around 5000. 00 people that is now going to be limited to 1000 people and the local authorities have the right to impose stricter restrictions if they wish to do so this is because the Health Minister said that the situation across the current tree is deteriorating rapidly that if you distribute it is increasing sharply the infection rate is constantly rising we are at 95. 00 cases bru 100000 inhabitants we must do could this no measures it is necessary. France has been using a color coded map to show the roots of transmission of 1000 thats pretty much been a green yellow red traffic light type of system but now the red zones have been split into subcategories and if you look at that map now most of the country is in shades of red suggesting that there is a high rate of transmission of coded 19 lets not forget that france is carrying out around a 1000000 tests every week so that rate is likely to go up but whats concerning the officials is the fact that in the last week there have been 3 days where more than 30. 1000 new cases have been registered and in addition to that hospital admissions have gone up by double to around 1000 and we know that hospitals in france are under strain the Health Minister is people to abide by the restrictions so continue social distancing wear a mask wash our hands and knees even suggested that people should tail some of their social activities restricting that all in an effort to try and be the transmission of this virus but as weve seen 2 areas of france including last say already now in this maximum alert zone and other departments will be looking at the figures and wondering when they are going to slide potentially into that category and face their own mini restrictions and lockdowns for the future. Israels about to enter a 2nd nation wide lockdown plan was approved at a Cabinet Meeting on wednesday night after the infection rate doubled in a 2 week period reporting next from tel aviv his policy or. The new measures that are being imposed are women a servant of the lockdown that the country put in place back in march that was the 1st nationwide lockdown and what were hearing now from Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu is that a full lockdown will be in place from tomorrow friday until october 10th he has said that hopefully some of the measures will be eased even sooner now last week we did see the country go into full locked arms it meant that schools Restaurants Hotels were completely shut but people were allowed our doors for exercise or for gathering for prayer meetings or protests now all of that is being forbidden israel is the 1st country in the developed world to be imposing a 2nd lockdown i mean some of. The situation is difficult there is a steep rise we have to take decisions the decisions are tough but as Prime Minister i am obliged to save your lives and you need to understand that there is a danger to lives. And thats why there is no choice but to take the difficult decisions and we will save lives with your cooperation. There has been a recent surge in positive cases one day so i record high 70000 people being registered now that has been a heated debate in parliament between netanyahu who is calling for a full lockdown and the rest of his cabinet there are those who are suggesting that netanyahu wants a lockdown because its a way to silence history tractors who is asking for complete closure it is not ours it is the Prime Minister i hear the Health Professionals say the reason the reason for general closure i want to understand why food goes as recommended here as a last resort and not a solution to demonstrations at the same time this looming lockdown and months to an admission of failure by Prime Minister netanyahu it was only a few months ago when he boasted that he was the worlds best Prime Minister at handling the crisis at that time is always one of the 1st countries to seal its borders and impose a lockdown but soon afterwards it was criticized for opening up its economy too soon and the virus was turned we now have a situation that every week there were protests in front of the Prime Ministers residence in jerusalem with people calling on the Prime Minister to resign for both corruption charges and for what they say is his mishandling of the whole coronavirus pandemic. Its being claimed the pentagon spent up to a 1000000000. 00 of coronavirus military equipment including jet engines and body armor congress this year gave the Defense Department a 1000000000. 00 to battle the coronavirus but a Washington Post report claims that most of that money went instead to ship Building MaintenanceArmy Uniforms satellites drones and even spaces valence the cash was supposed to address funding gaps in the countrys Coronavirus Response with the United States of course suffering the worlds highest coronavirus death toll it also comes at a time of severe supply. Shortages the u. S. Center for Disease Control has said that an additional 1000000000. 00 in needed to distribute vaccines next year and is noted that a severe lack of medical grade facemasks its evident as well the pentagons not directly responded to the Washington Post story but has defended the way it spent coronavirus fund. We are thankful that congress provided also and resources that enable the executive branch to invest in Domestic Production of critical medical resources and protect key defense capabilities from the consequences of curve it we need to always remember that economic and National Security a very tightly interrelated and our Industrial Base is really the nexus of the 2 we are new yorkers what they made of the scandal many werent surprised at all being given money body armor. So you can. Keep. People want the money in the government is the priority it always has been the. Citizens were realizing these things are being misled by. Funding its going to fortunately shes out are necessary that will benefit people and its part of being an american professor of preventative medicine William Schaffner told us that the spending scandal goes to the top levels of power. Obviously we would have preferred those moneys go to code relief i would think that this decision to spend the money not cold the defense but. On forces was made at a very high level clearly the diversion of these falls from the Public Health programs of the United States is very misguided i would think that the appropriate congressional committees would do an investigation to find out why this happened and to correct this if a 1000000000. 00 was misused we had better look to the rest also to see how those bodies were expended the distribution of the vaccine is going to be our next major effort here in the United States to stop or to d reduce control so cold that problem and all of those things will require funding it means that the congress of the United States has to hold the executive branch to account they have to be absolutely. Very attentive to how these monies allocated for good purpose are being spent. To Police Officers have been shot and now in hospital in the u. S. State of kentucky amid unrest in the city of new evo protesters there are angry off the only one of 3 officers was charged in the Fatal Shooting of African American woman Brianna Taylor in montana a grand jury returned an indictment against Brett Hankinson accusing him of wanton endangerment of protesters want to be officers charged with murder riot police being deployed to the area. Brianna taylor who was 26 was fatally shot when Police Showed up at her apartment to conduct whats called a no knock warrant search suspecting there were drugs there but fairing that it was an intruder obtained as boyfriend opened fire and officers shot back taylor who was unarmed was killed reaction. Decision has been mixed. Theres been a lot of talk in the news about the case with a lot of very wrong facts and today for the 1st time facts blamed by the attorney general of the state of kentucky in a legal setting making a legal grand jury finding the police were returning fire on a bad guy who fired at them 1st knowing they were Police Police do have the right to defend themselves in the course of trying to apprehend criminals who fire at them 1st they have the right its even specifically laid out in state law in the state of kentucky if theyre fired during the course of their work theyre entitled to fire back if only to defend themselves and that is what they were doing and in the course of that selfdefense Briana Taylor struck but its definitely mr walkers fault not the polices fault that the gun got started and that it ended up going in her direction it is all going to come down on him one source not works for the cooling and. You dont want to punish your own employees to implement your agenda thats one number to my black friends and since students have not fully showing this all of their power and influence to control their communities to preserve their communities and to demand to see both justice and say over the policing in their area its got choice a lot of time since people go on to the. Community and sets Certain Police to court people get paid money and they get money when they kill people like what used to happen. There is some charge there is a new young black attorney general that is done something they given the huge pay out to be out of family. I believe that the federal government should step in and really look into this you consider what were going more and what we need to snow. Us republicans are accusing the billionaire former new york mayor Michael Bloomberg bribery over his plan to boost voter turnout in florida in the upcoming election is actions of also drawn the states attorney generals attention hoping that explains elections in the United States are supposed to be about testing popularity candidates appeal to the public with their ads their speeches and their platform and then the public determines who they like the best its supposed to be democracy in action money is supposed to have nothing to do with it critics of the United States often point out that the reality is quite different rich people often have a way of asserting their agenda take the latest example of former new york city mayor Mike Bloomberg hes a billionaire and hes putting up 16000000. 00 to help pay the court fees of black and brown voters in florida who happen to be convicted felons now the former new york city mayor says he is just being generous no political motivations here whatsoever the right to vote is fundamental to our democracy and no american should be denied that right working together with the Florida Rights Restoration Coalition were determined to end disenfranchisement and the discrimination that has always driven it well it just so happens that the courts in florida have ruled that people with felony convictions are not allowed to vote until they have paid off their court fees and fines now until recently they were forbidden from voting for their entire lives so it looks like a lot of black and latino florida residents who have felony convictions are going to get a nice check from mayor bloomberg to make sure that theyre able to vote at the polls this november it just so happens that overwhelmingly black and latino people disapprove of donald trump and his presidency so republicans and flora. To say this pretty much amounts to bribery i will be calling on the Florida Attorney general to launch an investigation into Mike Bloomberg for potentially engaging in bribery and vote buying in the state of florida bloomberg does not care for donald trump he has laid out cash in florida to maneuver against him before bloomberg recently spent 100000000. 00 in the hopes of beating from when it came to early voting in florida trump shot back at him with his usual style. I thought minimize was through the democrat politics of desponding almost 2000000000. 00 and then giving the worst a move in the debate performance in the history of president ial politics but the home does ended his political career on 1st. Save new york city no republican has taken the white house without florida since 1924 its the biggest swing state in the Electoral College margins there can be razor thin think about bush v gore back in 2000 in the 2000 election it came down to just a few 100 votes between the 2 candidates so giving the vote to 32000 convicted felons that could make all the difference it amounts to bribery i mean basically bribing people to vote in a certain way and that is clearly against the law in the United States its very hard to bring criminal charges against somebody as fantastically wealthy as bloomberg because somebody like bloomberg will hire the best lawyers in the country to defend him and no government no federal government those State Government will want to bring charges against someone whos going to hire the best lawyers against any prosecution so its unlikely that very much will come of this but i think there is a lot there to investigate i mean its a its a very dubious activity and you can imagine that a trump a done anything like this they would be huge scandal of the. Kind of those politics back at work the Prime Minister just introduced controversially suspended as a big scandal tying him to corruption and rising pope at levels but as the reports the accusations against trudeau arent going away. Last month trudeau suspended parliament claiming ottawa needed a better Long Term Strategy for call the damage control after all the countrys coronavirus cases are nearly at 150002. 00 handling of the pandemic has been widely criticized no more than ever canadians are looking for clarity and leadership but what they have gotten from the trudeau government is confusion and repeated delays so its all about the coronavirus right nothing to do with a Corruption Scandal we have a Prime Minister and a cabinet that is golf engulfed in a massive Corruption Scandal for those currently under investigation for nearly 1000000000. 00 contract with an Organization Called d we charity it was paying his family members huge speaking fees for years but the agreement was since cancelled after accusations that it amounted to a conflict of interest no wonder all the suspicions and suspending parliament also puts all current investigations on hold if so gross and disgusting that this Prime Minister keeps using the pandemic as an excuse for his corruption believe it or not trudeau promised never to suspend parliament after his predecessor used the same mechanism called to weasel his way out of a vote of no confidence now the truth is promises broken he had some explaining to do the probation were doing right now is about gaining or testing the confidence of the house which is the opposite of what the conservatives did that we rightly railed against back in 2015 approval rates are tanking the oppositions on the offensive and the coronavirus continues to ravage the country these are tough times for both the canadian people and trudeau that you need for now thanks for watching us here this hour ill have you next up to the house to the alex salmon show.
