Lock downs are not the best way to fight code line t. V. As they cause significant Collateral Damage particularly among poor a population. Using the lockdown as your primary control method knockdowns just one consequence you never ever belittle and that is making poor people. A very warm welcome to you youre watching R T International with me nicky aaron. The faltering ceasefire in nagornokarabakh has entered its 4th day as armenia and azerbaijan again accuse each other of violating the truce amid a series of shelling attacks such as a those are the 2 nations which border asia and europe agree to lay down their weapons to Exchange Prisoners and those killed in the fighting meanwhile nearly 700. 00 and exploded munitions have been found to be disputed during play by the armenian Prime Minister has warned of a potential humanitarian catastrophe the is there a government for its part reported several of its own regions had been. Shelter box also accuses armenia of bone barging the 2nd largest city in the country killing at least 10 people and injuring dozens and this is the scene reportedly showing the aftermath of that attack near a van denies the claims the karabakh conflict stretches back more than 3 decades although the region is populated mainly by Ethnic Armenians it is legally part of azerbaijan. Well in a development for you now armenia has launched a criminal probe into turkeys alleged use of syrian mercenaries to fight for azerbaijan the allegation has been backed up by russia and france which both describe the fighters as terrorists our correspondent ali petrenko spoke exclusively with the armenian president on then fuck you see on the full version well ask you about the day here on r. T. But heres a preview for you now. And of course turkey is the one that brought. Islamic militants and terrorists into was that by john of course as you were usual turkey was doing the you are you need an excuse why on earth you are doing that one of the excuses why there is our brothers well doesnt work in the new world because your ethnic brothers go up to central asia mongolia to the north of china are you are you are you ready to enter if you were any problem that your i think rogers will get there may be yes yes if i look at the border in turkey i mean 360 degrees to that turkey has problems it had problems in egypt it is involved in libya well is it that nick brothers or Something Else its a different story thats one second there was speaking about p. K. Fire is absolute nonsense 3rd one there was speaking about the pipelines that are running from bugaboo to to to be the easy chair young guys in Oil Pipelines what im saying theyre referring to this because. The motivation was that army as well will heat them and were here to protect them im sorry where is the logic if i mean this had to hit that pipeline they should have hit that 20 years ago 20 years ago that when they were starting to build the biplane popple a couple of shellings would stop the pipelines being built. I mean didnt do that and they didnt do that more than 20 years no shelling and no one bullet was fired army is allowed the army is allowed to budge on to build a pipeline to sell their oil and gas and not only theirs but from has been and also from from the central asia make billions of dollars and use that billions of dollars buying billions of dollars of where armament and they use that against the golden collar buck and that brings to to a conclusion billions of dollars so thats money in turkish support Bonnie Hunter support has created and with money interest support you can come over any more the raid air Defense System that doug warner cut off that early and my colleague neil harvey spoke to layer after layer of the spokesperson of the Azerbaijani Ministry of Foreign Affairs as and she told us the as their stance on turkish involvement in dispute. At this information and on occasions about tookie support was a while john let me also make it clear that yes turkey and azerbaijan we have a good cooperation in various fields including the military spheres this is something that as if i just had with the other countries as well but it doesnt mean that to see supporters of the general that wants now 1st of all to be support is more also for us we have been witnessing this of course all the time as hard as well but hardly it was johnny army fight against the illegal presence of the army of armenia on our own soil ameena claims that his fighter jets a been involved supporting as a bombshell on whats your response to the paper news that our media has been spreading even before the escalation in the region well if you ask me the question why 1st of all we dont need any fighter and militias on our soil because we have large strong and professional army which is able and capable to defend its own integrity within it is not very good and i for this its kind of an uneasy situation because of the underlying problems what about that in allowing the people of the disputed region to decide their own futures what about the claims for independence and i would make up our surroundings because raise our children who supposedly just this is a part of the International Recognized centuries of us that lets not 2nd about the armenians living in this century and their rights representation of sufism nations does not mean that for secession separate emanations does not mean independence so what we say of course we can grasp of the sort of a nation with with being that is the integrity of azerbaijan if every group of people would declare with claim that they have the right nation can you imagine what kind of russia will have what do you see russias role in peace efforts between us about john in armenia russia is a big player of course there russias role as a mitigating its considerable. Ross you have been. On the side between the general enough to find a peaceful settlement. But unfortunately we have to say that theyre moving out of the. Cease fire ignoring the demands. Of United NationsSecurity Council resolutions as well as the numerous other international. 6 organizations and we want to see more active role russia in the climate of peaceful resolution to the conflict. Health care systems across europe are being pushed to the brink with record covert 19 infection rates clocking up across the continent in france medics fear there not as well prepared as they were during the pandemic 1st wave and then once that we dont have any. Back in february march we had an enormous amount of volunteers 2nd serious point is that we had help from other regions in march and april to today those regions are all in the red zone with therefore not able to receive that same assistance so we have beds for additional kovac 19 patients but we dont have any staff to manage them and a new survey has confirmed exactly that if found that with the pandemic taking its toll many medical workers want out of the profession Artie Shaw Dubinsky picks up the story as the cause it make rears its ugly head the 1st sign of real strain was on the hospitals downs were imposed people wanted to show their appreciation and so started the nightly class ok. Now is the pressure on hospitals and stuff and getting all the clucking in the world isnt enough to boost the morale of traumatised medical staff and me serving his bearing that more than a hole for nurses a suffering burnout and many say they are ready to quit its. Conducted by the National Order of nurses 57 percent of respondents said they were exhausted all 37 percent said the covert crisis had made them want to change jobs. This summer saw wave of layoffs and it became clear that the government will continue reducing hospital beds the thing is the government shot Health Workers in the back by refusing to admit that 31000 staff were infected with over 19 due to the lack of masks and medical rows many young nurses considered quitting the thought to themselves i wont work amid a staff shortage on a lower wage in terrible conditions risking the lives of patients id rather leave while i still can and many other moved abroad for example to switzerland or luxembourg where the wages for nurses and double worthy opened up their own practice where they themselves determine how much they work and get paid it comes as the french Prime Minister issued this warning yeah like the french do it too quickly that this virus was gone the reality of the 2nd wave is here they could be no more slackening. Is in the country facing problems with a medical right the u. K. Prime minister was raving about the fantastic n. H. S. We will win because our n. H. S. Is the beating heart of this country it is the best of this country. It is powered by love. So under the course they were thinking of throwing in the towel last month more than 2 thirds who responded to a survey said they planned to quit the n. H. S. Because of how close it had been turnbulls many said they would this illusion and exhausted but there were other reasons. 65 percent said a lack of personal protective equipment was a factor while 54 percent cited their inability to speak out. When we were left to work without the necessary equipment with patients who did not have covered one scene we could be the ones passing the infection to them for example University Hospital centers knowingly told staff who tested positive its nothing serious continue working when employees throughout france are asked to avoid any contact with people for at least 7 days at the same time nurses are told nope nothing serious continue no we disagree it contradicts our professional ethics because we are in danger in patients we will not put up with this when nurses are told to do more work extra hours work during the weekends it exhausts them and exhaustion leads to mistakes of work we dont want just because of fatigue because our management is exploiting us. Medical staff have been vocal about the demands of this pandemic and while in some countries governments have put their hands in their pockets the bump up pay packets its not nearly enough protests demanding more funding for health care and a better working conditions have sprung up across the continent thanks and praise from medical staff who have worked throughout the pandemic is always going to be welcome but medics want to remind people and a government that they owe no more for a cause and do less things turn the right. Soon European Countries could see a whole sea of doctors nurses technicians and many more leaving the service for good solid evil ski arty paris. Or france that is among the countries that is seeing high infection rates spend in east in the spring along with the u. K. Is introducing new knock down measures but the World Health Organization is now warning leaders against using lockdowns as the primary control method against the spread of profit 90 dot using lockdown as your primary control method lockdowns just one consequence that you must never ever belittle and that is making poor people off a lot poorer. The Global Economy as a whole has certainly felt the impact of lockdowns with one recent full cost adjusting it will contract by 5 percent in 2020 thats despite governments together stumping up trillions of dollars to protect jobs and markets some analysts say the world could enter its was too recession since the Great Depression rick sanchez from r. T. America discussed the pros and cons of lock downs with his get. Lock downs extended lock downs are ridiculous and are causing such economic and mental and health devastation at some point we have to have a conversation about how do we protect the most vulnerable but weve got to get back to work these lockdowns are devastating to the working class and i would argue that those that are are doing for extended lockdowns or anti working or anti working class i got your point but heres the other point here other countries that have been able to deal with this effectively vietnam south korea China New Zealand some of them knocked it out in like weeks to a month and they didnt do it with a lockdown they did it with an entire list of a bevy of things including testing immediate testing knowing who are the people who are sick isolating them i mean that is how. This disease right. No i agree 100 percent they did it with the Leadership Structure they leaned in on the science they did it with a Leadership Structure and a government that understood what covert 1000 was and what type of a threat it was they did it by not acting like covert 19 was a hoax at the end of the day we do have countries that have far exceeded the level of success when it comes to preventing individuals from contracting covert 19 and i think that those are areas that we need to look towards in terms of the methods that they use but in each one that you just named they had government leadership that followed and acknowledged the fact that covert 900. 00 was a threat and developed a plan from day one whereas in america we had a president who completely ignored the threat and its like to keep going as if it would not affect us and acted as though we were somehow insulated because were the United States and we have american blood running through our banks and i would argue if you didnt have these extended lock downs in california and new york that average would be even lower and youre seeing the g. D. P. Come roaring back i will point out this i think the shame of it all in the spring is that that trump listened too much to barracks and fogey with faulty models including the marine model out of Washington State if you hadnt and followed his instincts i think wed be in a much better place they were a lot of people who still hosted house parties and other things im from chicago originally i know chicago shut down lockdown for a while yet their cases steadily went up but in large part that was because of basic Human Behavior and people not following the social distancing guidelines so i think that taking it construct with the other things that weve heard from organizations like the c. D. C. Its very important that we follow all of those things and not look to one as the magic bullet to ensure that people are healthy and safe. Still to come to the last stop choose the former president Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln what toppled in portland and made riots in vandalism across the u. S. City with more on that and plenty more stories coming up after the break. Join me every thursday on the alex simon show and ill be speaking to get out of the world of politics sports business im show business ill see you then. You can add capitalism without capital and you can abstract it all without giving people an Interest Rate to incentivize them to save. And the reason to do that is that if there is a downturn like the code then theres plenty of stock theres plenty of capital in your capital system to smooth it out but if you deface the current and you Interest Rates are 0 and theres no incentive to stay therefore theres no capital then you dont have to apples any more you have a tough time perceived wrong by Central Banks then the worse it gets the more like a themselves. Welcome back the u. S. Pharmaceutical giant johnson and johnson is pausing Clinical Trials of an experimental Coronavirus Vaccine after a volunteer fell thick we have temporarily paused for the dosing in all our covert 900. 00 vaccine candidate Clinical Trials due to an unexplained illness in a study participants adverse events illnesses accidents etc even those that are serious are expected parts of any Clinical Study especially large studies. The johnson and johnson vaccine is one of think the takeover drug being tested in the u. S. Its considered one of the most advanced having entered phase 3 trials this is the 2nd time trials of a possible covert vaccine have been halted testing of a job being developed by astra zeneca and Oxford University was briefly halted in september after a volunteer in the u. K. Showed an adverse reaction well lets discuss this further now and cross live to professor Lawrence Young from White University medical school in the u. K. Thank you for joining us on the Program Professor that there were high hopes for the johnson and johnson vaccine candidate how much of a setback is this do you think i dont think this is a big setback because like many of these studies your experimenting with a vaccine in many many different people and you do expect to see some adverse events the whole issue about testing in so many people is to ensure safety. And masters that occur and Oxford University have restarted their trials in the u. K. Brazil and south africa but testing of that drug is still on hold in the u. S. Do they look entirely safe to you i think at the moment i think everything looks like its being managed properly you always expect as it earlier to see some adverse events and all properly run vaccine trials have an independent data safety monitoring board and they pauls trials occasionally because of these adverse responses this is not a clinical hold that im completely stop the trial pausing to examine in detail whats affected this particular individual and whats remember this is one individual out of many who are being vaccinated. With politicians promising a vaccine as soon as possible would you feel like theres a lot of pressure on Pharma Companies to cut corners perhaps. I think theres pressure on these companies but i cant see any evidence that theyre cutting corners what theyre trying to do. Against all the background of the growing issues with the pandemic its not going anywhere if an effect in many countries is getting worse theyre just as though theyre rushing ahead but trying to parallel some of the some of the processes in Vaccine Development but all regulates your for it is that off on the approved vaccine are very strict that the safety protocols are idiots and so any event that cannot be explained has to be properly investigated while the World Health Organization has urged International Cooperation to ensure Global Access to a vaccine when one becomes available do you think National Interests will get in the way of that. I worry about but i know that whilst we are all working together not only in Vaccine Development but trying to understand what this virus is about how it functions why it causes disease in certain individuals it always has a tendency to balance the need for cooperation with competition with healthy competition i think all of us are very concerned that once a number of vaccines have demonstrated to be effective then we need to ensure not only that we get good manufacture but that these vaccines are distributed equitably particularly to areas of the world that might not have the infrastructure or indeed the economies to support their own Vaccine Development i think we have a responsibility to Work Together as a worldwide community. And professor Lawrence Young from work University Medical school thank you time thank you. For the u. S. City of portland thing riots and vandalism with statues toppled as people demonstrated on Indigenous Peoples day which has replaced the federal columbus day holiday in several states. To statues of former president Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln were pulled down and the entrance to the Oregon Historical society was damaged 3 people were arrested President Donald Trump has condemned the unrest saying the culprits should be jailed. These animals in jail now the radical left only knows how to take advantage of very dumb leadership fools this is biden law and order well earlier we spoke to political activist Anthony Rogers right on social justice journalist on man khomeini who explained why some people object to certain statues in the u. S. Columbus day is a celebration of white male mediocrity this is a person who got lost and got very very lucky you dont see that swastikas in germany and for all intents and purposes or did things for germany that were beneficial to the germans but were so disgusting in the process that those symbols have been taken down in germany where theyve had this true record truth and reconciliation process i just dont think that we can exercise this from an english centric lens a referring to whats aware of our history now we might have all been combined or impacted in some sense but we were not impacted in the same way and this goes back to that indigenous idea of free prior and informed consent they were not informed and they did not give consent for these symbols of hate that have been literally etched in stone in something that was sacred to them that cant continue to happen and in some cases yes many of the statues may have to come down i didnt know lincoln. Ordered the lynching of the 38. 00 per store people who were trying to protect their families and this is an opportunity to understand yes lincoln is. Revered in america for so many values that we hope to aspire to and yet we never really tell the story of what happened to 1st native people in america and whats happening to them today and that was brought out in. The European Unions back to imposing a new round of sanctions on russian Officials Say the alleged alexina valmy poisoning thats a small skies case the evidence continues to be ignored by europe and the Global Chemical weapons watchdog oxys correspondent pays all of the hustle. What we can expect from the sanctions though is that they will take the form of asset freezes and travel bans its being reported that 9 members of russias Security Services may be the targets of the sanctions the German Foreign minister announcing them had this to say but we have initiated sanctions against individuals whom we believe to be partly responsible for this violation of International Law it is important that the e. U. Shows unity in such a serious crime we did today well germany and france were the 2 Member States that put forward these berlin in paris say that russia has not given adequate answers as to what happened to alexei novelli well from moscows point of view that theyve asked germany to provide moscow with the evidence that shows that Alexei Navalny was poisoned with a nerve agent 4 times but that request is for them on death is in fact the Russian Foreign minister not happy at all with the way that moscow is being treated in this situation there were protests at the rooms of the u. We are asking the o. P. C. Doubly to explain their findings were the results of this probe they tell us the request was from germany so its a german case and you should ask germany so we ask germany and we get the same old story for requests from our Prosecutor Generals Office have been sent in accordance with the European Convention on me to assistance in criminal matters we cannot investigate the case when we have no facts so where does this leave russias relationship with the European Union well ultimately not particularly great on monday we heard from Alexander Schellenberg the Austrian Foreign minister vienna hard being traditionally a very close ally of moscow within the European Union however the Austrian Foreign minister saying that there could be no return to business as usual however we did hear from your barrell as he said that the relationship between moscow and brussels went deeper than anything. That had to do with Alexei Navalny that russias cooperation was needed particularly when it came to situations like the ongoing crisis in the got a cut about russia as one of the cochairs sold it means group to deal with is the fight in order to kind of wash were not going to stop doing that to do political about these tensions alexina valley is still recovering here in berlin he took a lot of flight from siberia to moscow back on the 20th of august and continues to recover but as hes Getting Better it would seem that theres still plenty of ramifications from whatever happened to him to come with relations to how that relationship between moscow and brussels is going to go from here on out they didnt have a thoroughly a member of Germanys Left Party faces up to russia to deliver a verdict on the case russias repressed. Optical ninea charter do you have to be responded to by the German Authorities and those repressed for error cation im not responded to it by germany then the Russian Federation is fully within its rights to actually do my. Job and o. P. C. W. X. Germany and laboratories without cooperation from from the josiah at the trial in this case could only be in the Russian Federation value authorities the russian prosecutors so 1st of all jodi each of providing evidence. Prosecutors. Investigate chacha people related to all of the air but this is not seems to be what the European Union wants and this doesnt seem to be or germany was there before interest. Is ations aghast that if you look at the case seem to be baseless. Thank you for joining us on our Feet International we have been having a great day stay with us but then busts coming up after the break. The window sill i just love that the bell is doubled ill just. Keep going to want to let you know what why did why do you know who the hell out of the. Clear we hope will be but there we here are some friends so that the words are still so but theyre still real cool thing to do something to see a. Little. Yellow to charge for. Play value about the house and i think theres a whole lot thats also going to mom was like well within one of that you know were going to have. I. As the election approaches we feel its necessary to ask a very simple no informed me question why do most potential voters describe themselves as independent or not affiliated with the Political Party on top of this poll revealed voters who want more choice to institute party system limiting more of. Democracies
