President ial candidates come to harrison my palace will go head to head in a debate wednesday but whether the main contenders trump and biden will meet for a 2nd round remains up in the air. Over the morning from russia the 7th of october my name is kevin i would hear it out hes World News Center with the latest for you this morning and we started with the latest coronavirus news from britain the english hospitals are under pressure there now is seeing the highest daily tally of covert admissions there since early june on sunday the number of patients with confirmed covert 19 grew by nearly a quarter it amounted to nearly 500 patients or almost 100 more people than in the early part of june the new spike confusion in the u. K. Government seems to be continuing to r. T. Show the average dashti as the latest on it. And considering the u. K. Governments response to cave at 19 pretty and probably wouldnt be the words on the tips of most peoples tongues over the course of the year the u. K. Has seen thousands of people dying in care homes tests and tracing deadlines set and missed the u. K. Topping the death toll across europe plus of course britain being on the verge of a round 2 and while most people think the governments response needs to be completely written off it seems as though not everyone agrees its been. I think it will be like the lympics thats when its all over and we look back and reflect we would actually be extremely proud of ourselves some people might think a wooden spoon is more appropriate than a shiny metal especially considering the latest news that 16000 positive tests for private 19 have been lost meaning the super spreaders a blindly unaware theyre still spreading thousands of people blissfully unaware that theyve been exposed to code potentially spreading this deadly virus time and hospital admissions are increasing in the 2nd wave blunder after blunder critics say the governments not learning from its mistakes but as the country hurdles towards a 2nd wave of the virus confusion is still lingering in the guess with mixed messages coming from power. But as i understand it. Apologies i misspoke today in the northeast new rules mean you cannot meet people from different households in social settings indoors including in pubs restaurants and your home you should also avoid socializing with other households outside go to work but stay at home eat out to help out but dont socialize kick start the economy but stay in your bubble its no wonder the country is confused especially considering the man telling the u. K. What to do is accuse of being a tad confused one of the major problems is widespread confusion about the local restrictions people feel very let down a very frustrated very forgotten can we pin all the primal Boris Johnson after all these all around president to times far to go back to all that no Prime Minister has ever fought before and after months of economic paralysis Boris Johnson began to im not the lockdown even though parts of the u. K. Was still plagued with the virus and so the north south divide found its latest partition the timing of the lifting of National Lockdown was london centric please remember this the next time you see politicians pointing fingers at our people on the eve of a 2nd wave many might think the government would know what it was doing by now especially considering its had around 6 months to prepare but when clarity has been replaced with confusion can the government really expect people to for the rules when it doesnt seem to know them itself should you ever stuff the artsy lunch. When we come to in paris and its suburbs the greater covert 19 positives in migrant shelters is extremely high now with winter coming aid groups are urging the government to provide the most vulnerable with more help weve got more on it now stories a bit later in this update. Developments in the saga of the russian opposition figure election a volley to tell you about now the Global Chemical weapons watchdog v. O. P. C w says that traces of a nerve agent from the family were found in the biological samples taken from the politician but russias representative to the organization slammed the claim. Until youre given documents materials samples material evidence we will consider all that surrounds this incident an unbridled Propaganda Campaign of lies or simply put a low grade provocation its purpose is obvious denigrate russia with unsubstantiated accusations and thereby create a far fetched reason for introducing another tranche of sanctions against our country moscow sent several requests to germany asking for cooperation in the case but so far thats not been forthcoming election of army fell ill on a commercial flight in late august after receiving emergency treatment in the russian city of armscye was then transported to germany for further care since then berlins claimed that traces of a chemical nerve agent were found in his test results arties paper all over the next break more the story this for the for you this morning. The organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons has published its findings from samples they tested from Alexei Navalny the results wont come as too much of a surprise to many the o. P. C. W. Found novacek was present those results in a Detailed Analysis were sent here to germany where berlin has been demanding answers from moscow but using o. P. C. W. Finding the says the foundation for allegations is unlikely to sit well in the russian counter so it is in fact even tacit cool story initiated at the behest of berlin by its your atlantic allies to gather with the leadership of the technical secretary and of dio p c w it has continued in accordance with to preplan conspiracist scenario memories are fresh of the investigation by the hague based weapons watchdog into allegations of chemical weapons being used against civilians in syria and the validity of the investigation of the duma chemical attack the response from western nations was to condemn the Syrian Government and to unleash cruise missiles. While toxicologists still question the findings of the o. P. C. W. With respect to the consistency of the observed and reported symptoms of the alleged victims with possible exposure to chlorine gas or similar the experts were conclusive in their statements that there was no correlation between symptoms and chlorine exposure. Even a former head of the weapons watchdog has raised problems with the handling of that investigation a request the whole. Saperstein e. P. Heard at the u. N. Security council was blocked by the United States france the u. K. Of though instead he chose to read out his statement of the line this concerns him immunity from the very heart of the organization from the very scientists and engineers involved and to do my best to give us a call for great disparity from your p c w for the intensified in november last year almost one year later. Has not responded to these requests nor to the ever growing controversy surrounding the doom investigation. It has hidden behind an impenetrable wall of silence and opacity. Any meaningful dialogue impossible with the e. U. Council set to meet next week to decide what their reaction to the report will be the German Government demanding serious consequences for the use of a chemical weapon this o. P. C. W. Reports could have far reaching ramifications peter all over r. T. Earlier. More than half of People Living in extreme poverty in the paris region in particular migrants have been infected with covert 19 thats according to a new research from the french a Group Doctors without borders the specter of covert is rising again here in moscow too with growing numbers of infections were going to tell you more about that later in the program but thats no focus on the paris situation. This shot does have come down all bars across paris and its in the suburbs all in a bid to fight rising infection rates have closed it 19 its an epidemic thats been described as moving to thaw asked and while the overall Positivity Rate for qubit in paris is around 12 percent if you look more closely at those who live in but carry a situation such as migrants its said to be much higher Doctors Without Borders that m. S. F. It is now sounding in what it describes as being the 1st study of its kind in europe it found the Positivity Rate of covert 19 in emergency shelters and in Food Distribution centers was more than 50 percent the results show an extremely high prevalence the main reason is the conditions of shelters and being back together which leads to clusters of infection in europe and france no other study shows this type of prevalence these types of figures on this scale can only be found in india or in the slums of brazil but that figure showing a Positivity Rate of more than 50 percent is an average and misstep says that in some centers causing Migrant Workers the rate hit 89 percent a worrying number in places where social distancing can be difficult in president michaels address to the nation in march he promised help for the most vulnerable with him on the 2nd if. He didnt i want to ask for sacrifices to slow down the epidemic the aid to the most fragile should not be jeopardized for the most vulnerable the most destitute for the isolated who will make sure they can be fat and protected. So have they being forgotten all those people are usually. Are forgotten that they were for get. Or all around paris special especially in the north. Of spontaneous camps and officially didnt exist. There was no special put issue for them during do continue nation during dependency to arrive to arrive to arrive and we dont know exactly what we can do wisdom she wasnt of that temper. The shelters have long been used as a base when makeshift camps have been cleared when the lockdown began in march here in france hundreds were moved into accommodation like that and now while the idea may have been to offer a shelter and to get people off the streets it may have also offered the virus the perfect grounds to spread the results confirm that the circulation of the virus is more particularly effective in the situations where the proximity was the highest that is to say when the person has to share a room showers and kitchen with several other people in places where Migrant Workers are housed together around a 3rd of residents share a room with between 2. 00 and 5. 00 people at 50 share a room with more than 5 people in situations like this its impossible to socially distance m. S. F. Once a change of strategy we knew that this reception conditions would not work that it wasnt possible to respect very measures we have to change the hosting strategy m. S. F. Is submitted its report to the ministry of health its helping by highlighting these desperate situations that they can be a changing here for those whose lives are currently being held in the balance so it ought to see paris as i was saying there are sort of pay for showers for poor the spectro covered rising again in moscow with growing numbers of infections here too well tell you what restrictions might be coming to the russian capital after this break. Join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and ill be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports im showbusiness ill see that. Again morning. Coronaviruses once again telling its grip in the russian capital the last 24 hours to see more than 4000 new infections recorded here in moscow leading city authorities to bring in new restrictions and explains. Well the russian capital has witnessed a dramatic increase in the number of new covert cases up to 4000. 00 per day this comes as the country as a whole sees this sharp increase in the number of cases the highest its seen since the beginning of may this year now the russian capital unless a case of be on it has said the situation in moscow is becoming more serious by the day the situation with 19 is getting more complicated and dramatic day by day in terms of identifying new cases were preaching the peak we had in spring the number of those hospitalized today has exceeded a 1000 people the op would trend continues now with such a substantial increase in numbers talk on the street has turned to whether moscow is heading for another lockdown however theres no official talk of that as of yet however things are tightening up starting from this monday schools were told to take a 2 week unplanned holiday on top of that people over the age of 65 and those with chronic illnesses will not be able to travel for free on public transport across the city starting from this friday on top of that tickets will be exclusively electronic for places like theaters and other then use and businesses citywide have been told to send at least 30 percent of their employees home to work now on top of these measures to Health Care Facilities that have been reopened to cope with the rising number of covert cases those are the circle in the exhibition and Convention Center and the score a ice palace now these were built especially to cope with the pandemic. To be out in the moscow was there and highlighted what a Critical Role these 2 facilities will play in the fight against the virus certainly good riddance through these hospitals do not exist separately they are part of the moscow hospital infrastructure leading the fight against covert 19 these clinics these inpatient facilities provide necessary medical staff. For the backup hospitals i hope theyll work effectively and will save the lives of many people in moscow so moscow is at once again bracing itself the city will tease how it said that these measures should be enough to stem the spread of the virus however as weve seen in other countries everybody has to play a role were all responsible for following the rules wearing our mosques keeping our distance and washing our hands because nobody wants to return to another lockdown. The 2020 u. S. Election around the corner to seasons in full swing wednesdays going to see the only Vice President ial scuffle with the 1st president ial debate of course on history however the 2nd one remains in question after the democratic hopeful joe biden said tuesday he wouldnt face off with President Trump if he still got kovan to still call to give us a closer look at the contenders. Name calling personal attacks emotional accusations American Society is now so deeply polarized between these 2 figures donald trump and joe biden the 20 twentieths Election Campaign is looking more like a political circus than anything im not here to call all those lies Everybody Knows hes a liar dont ever use the word smart with me dont ever use that word give me because you know what theres nothing smart about you joe what are you sure i dont. Know your number 2 hes putins puppy youre a senator and the worst were. To get any word with this clown its as if many people see this upcoming election as a showdown between good and evil if you like biden hes the countrys only salvation for his racist fascist opponent but if you like trump only he can protect americas new greatness from his senile rival its like a reality t. V. Show where actual policy is absent from the conversation the thing is though if you can get past the rhetoric and the emotion is there really any difference between them from present but all that. Differed from the Obama Administration in which biden was the v. P. Remember that wall trump wanted to build in 2016 as part of his popular promise for a new stance on immigration we were in a great. Penetrable physical tall powerful beautiful southern border where all the democrats quickly attacked it as racist and along came the sad pictures of caged immigrant kids with trying to blame for their misery except some of those pictures were from 2014 under the Obama Administration thats right trump actually continued many of the same immigration policies from before in fact ice arrests and deportations are still lower than they were under much of obamas watch lets not forget about those peace promises trump made on his way to the white house im proud to have the support of the war fighting generals active duty military and top experts who know both how to win and how to avoid the endless wars and echoed obamas 2008 election promises and also like obama trump has so far failed to deliver the difference here though is that the former president got a Nobel Peace Prize in 2009 even though many of americas foreign entanglements worsened under his administration in 2016 trump even campaigned against the interventionist posturing of both parties but we will no longer use American Military might to construct democracies in faraway lands or try to rebuild other countries in our own image those days are now over it was also obamas bloated budget deficit which continues to grow under trump the current president made tax cuts for the rich sure but the economy more or less continued business as usual until the pandemic when the debates come around again though one has to wonder if biden will be as frank about these parallels as hes been in the past the truth of the matter is. All you all know you all know when you all got what has to be done we can disagree in the margins but the truth of the matter is its all within our wheel house and nobody has to be punished no one standard of living will change nothing would fundamentally change when your only 2 options in an election are so similar in terms of policy perhaps shouting racist or senile is the only way to keep things interesting. There could be a glimmer of hope for peace between armenia and azerbaijan and the conflict over the disputed nagornokarabakh region i mean years later stated hes prepared to resolve the dispute in a nonmilitary manner but making concessions theres got across this potentially big news this morning he goes down off. On the border with a disputed region a go i guess morning so some hope maybe this morning is a new day starts for maybe a new dawning a ceasefire maybe some place but you know whats the word on the ground there. Well kevin what i have to tell you is that the city of to panic at the capital of the nagornokarabakh region has been awoken by the sounds of bombs this morning just once again in fact some people on the ground have told me that theyve been kept away by the sounds of shelling all the way throughout the night so well here is that but well as youve mentioned the wrist some very very dim hole that the peace negotiations are not around the corner but at least somewhere in the near future the Prime Minister of armenian ical passion has said that if i say or by john hes ready to make concessions then well meaning is to. Be rid of him in lebanon conflicts should be resolved by mutual considerations. Is ready for it and will make concessions if as a version is also ready for them. Well this is particularly important after the Russian ForeignIntelligence Service have said that they have information that hundreds if not thousands. Thousands of syrian mercenaries are taking part in this conflict right now members of one of the groups that they have mentioned in their in their report the members of the notorious front and if this is indeed true then this is some very bad news for the region because im not sure a front they are as radical and as extremist as it gets they were formerly known as the al qaeda in syria so theres that and also theyre known to have tortured people to have eggs mass execute their hostages bomb civilian neighborhoods and some even allege they used chemical weapons against civilian population and syria so they really dogs of war at the same time turkey a country thats seen as by many as a main power that has a say as to which way this conflict in the go in a cab back fares turkey is sending mixed signals here that for instance the foreign minister of turkey has said that well ankara is ready to work with moscow on resolving this crisis but at the same time he refused to acknowledge the equality of the warring sides. I mean its done to put all meaning john on equal footing means rewarding new york your boy the world must be on the side of those who are right namely on the side of azerbaijan. And the longer this conflict goes on the most civilians suffer just to give you some perspective heres an eyewitness account from the azerbaijani side of the conflict. By john is fighting on its own land are many or has occupied as a rage on the land my ancestors died for this cause as you can see the armenians destroyed my house but i am not afraid of them see i am not afraid of them i can see the war we are not afraid. On friday already the russian Prime Minister mikhail machinist and his. Expected to visit. And here on the ground and lots of people are telling me that they have a lot of hope that this visit will pull the negotiating process out of the bog. The smaller. Start to going to get better yet he goes down or keep us posted all right thats it for now if you want to discover more of the big array of stories were talking about today and features as well check it out over social media or on t. V. For now though thats the way things look in from our news room so far this morning reporting from moscow kevin out of the team wishing you well and a great day. In the white house this january which. Is the state of the economy. Of citizens what is called the case shaped recovery is permanently dividing the country and. This seems to be acceptable for those who are. Sort of amazing country with so many friends in russia and im very excited to be here. I love that idea i think i can. Make a lot of money with. Millions and hundreds of me. Heres a nice one. A great wall and nobody builds a lot better than me and ill build a very inexpensive like a great great wall. Just in case youre worried about whos going to pay for it mexico will pay for. It well see what happens who knows i always say who knows what well see on the field it will be success. What is wrong with us as american citizens and i hate to be pointed off by. That we have a stick. And a. Second wife. She can handle it. She and i divorce because. Of the what the president and i voted for him and she can stand for. I would be. A republican i would move for anyone who is not evil and has half a brain will defeat dumb troll. Defeated yet. We have less than a month to go before the next president ial election how is the atmosphere in the us now one of the highest priority problems how will they vote what should they do next just some of the questions we put to americans. Planning a soaring paul from 42 years old and im speaking from my living room in my house and i think marilyn. Per 15 years i was a Water Treatment technician for tricon chemicals but that job and the couple months ago. There was a downturn in work. Related to the 19 crisis. Lets not able to retain employees they had let someone go and it was me. We are right now in the most important election. In our history so im thrilled to be back in the Granite State with the true hardworking american patriots last night it was my great honor to accept the republican nomination for president of united the. Donald trump you know i might think i have watched his career since the 1980 s. Hes kind of like a figure from pop culture who rose up to become president the United States and you know i mire what hes done i think the Hotel Business is an honorable business hes not making weapons hes not many other countries in that line of work so i really dont see it the bad thing that a billionaire became president of the United States
