A russian evolutionary biologist claims the pandemic currently paralyzing the globe can mutate into around 20000. 00 variants. I think its a blessing the corona virus is approved more slowly than are any viruses but still its a very quick process. Bring you all the latest world news stories this is r. T. International im donald quarter welcome to the program turkeys president has once again lashed out at his french counterparts supposedly anti islam stance stating emanuel macron needs a quote mental check or ones words to come as anger continues to build in the muslim world following a crackdown on suspected islamicists in france in response to the recent beheading of a teacher near paris. President macron has said he wont to announce the publication of those cartoons and that has spiked furious reaction from many muslim majority countries including from the president of turkey president one who said twice over the weekend that he thought much kuan needed his Mental Health checked. Needs Mental Health treatment what else can be said to a head of state who behaves in this way to millions of People Living in his country who are members of a different faith. As i said yesterday he is a case and therefore he really needs to have mental chunks france has been incensed by that and described it as an insult in reaction its also recalled it from ankara its also been condemnation of those comments from the e. U. President words the regard to president. We call and to disturb this dangerous spiral of confrontation all muslim countries are also angered by some of the other crackdowns that are happening here in france that includes the closure of a mosque and the closure of muslim associations all that are said to have links to extremists now there have been protests in many countries including in libya and jordan against whats happening here in france and being garza photos of president macron were burnt theres also been a boycott of french products in some countries and a call for a boycott in others now the organization for islamic cooperation has hit out at the comments that president mack on made saying that they are likely to harm franco muslim relations now weve been chatting to people here in france about what they make of the Current Situation with many people feeling that this provokes islamophobia and a concern that muslims in general are being punished for the actions of a few. But the clients individuals. Muslim mosques and associations are not guilty maybe some people who come in but not everybody so they punish the entire Muslim Community for what an isolated person did today we have to be careful of not developing and then to Muslim Hatred if the government still goes on to divide us it will create separate groups in society and it is not the solution i dont think that there is an optimal solution it would be utopian to think the opposite but dialogue is a better solution for me president go on that has been steadfast about this tweeting on sunday night that nothing will make us rich treats in regards the publication of those cartoons of the muslim prophet mohammed it seems that both sides are hardening their stance and the divide is likely to only whiten Germanys Foreign Ministry has weighed into the dispute calling the turkish president s remarks about emanuel macron a new low yeah added that germany stands in solidarity with france in the fight against islamic extremism we heard some reactions on the french governments measures and the response to them. These people that are boycotting french products they dont understand the french way of life the french Muslim Community must stop them take this very easily and they understand that because more stuff the french Muslim Population are in good accord Good Relationship with french values in france are lets saying that was there. For our in the United States we have this freedom of speech in france you cant criticize jesus you can create zones moses and you cant and they want to be able to. Profit what their laws must that have been that have been lost and that they are mosques that are funded by Foreign Countries that are preaching in these mosques are sent either by more awkward turkey and saudi arabia or kept out and they are paid by the government and french government doesnt want that anymore prince must be absolutely clear with the muslim countries that they have not to interfere with the laws of the French Republic i dont think it should be a middle ground for the freedom of the press for freedom of ideas thats very important that is what the west is built on by our western democracies are built on it we should not accept any discussion on this they have the right to be offended maybe they dont like it there are some things i dont like and what shall you do is funny shit sometimes starker thats the freedom thats the freedom in europe maybe must understand that they can be angry ok but not to the point of beheading people you know this is possibly unacceptable and speaking of islamophobia is completely crazy there is no real islamophobia in france i mean its slamming terrorism. Across the atlantic new yorks iconic times square was the scene of a violent brawl on sunday between pro and anti donald trump protesters. Oh ok. At least 4 people were arrested following the clashes former city mayor Rudy Giuliani was reportedly virtually abused by activists while eggs were also hurled at a caravan of tram Trump Supporters police were seen putting handcuffs on an injured man lying on the street on a stretcher well despite donald trump and joe biden being presented as polar opposites it seems when it comes to Foreign Policy theres not much to pick between them breaking down that aspect for us as caleb often. The past 4 years have proved to us that donald trump is a businessman he is not a diplomat is diplomatic failures have created a lot of tension around the world and it seems the whole world is holding its breath until november hopes for biden calling the waters might be high however you turning out all of trumps decisions might not be as easy as it looks and it might be well rather odd lets take Donald Trumps most recent moves the peace deals between arab countries and israel now theyre hailed by some but met with fury by others biden has claimed he will move in the same direction and of course he would not reverse the decision by trying to move the u. S. Embassy to jerusalem a Biden Harris Administration will build on these steps challenge other nations to keep pace and work to capitalize on these growing tinys to move forwards when a 2 state solution and a more stable and peace who region now lets move on to americas most bitter enemy iran now biden says he is an enthusiastic supporter of the Iran Nuclear Deal he has denounced trumps move to withdraw the us a from the deal and says hes enthusiastic about the possibility of rejoining the best way to do that of course would be for president truman to rejoin the iran deal and build on but seeing as how donald trump has ripped up that deal and then murdered a top iranian general it doesnt look like iran will be back to the table anytime soon. The j. C. P. O. A table still exists the u. S. Left it if they want to return to it it wont be that easy they cost billions tens of billions or maybe hundreds of billions of dollars worth of damage to our people they caused the deaths of our people they attacked our people and caused our great generals martyrdom as for staying in the middle east do you remember all those promises from trump about bringing the troops so we are working to finally end a marriage. His longest war and bring our troops back home now when asked if he agreed with the president here joe biden actually responded with yes i do as bizarre as it sounds yes i do as long as theres a plan to figure out how hes going to deal with isis on to north korea where there seems to be no Silver Bullet to resolve the tensions donald trump tried to play the diplomat and met with the north Korean Leader 3 times however he was unable to break through the stalemate and it looks like bidens chances with north korea are also pretty slim as relations between the former Vice President and kim jong un have also hit rock bottom hes talked about his good buddy whos of. I would be putting pressure on china knew to put pressure on korea i would not meet with the Supreme Leader who said joe why use a rabid dog rabid dogs like biden can heard lots of people have theyre allowed to run about they must be beaten to death with a stick before its too late yes on paper both candidates seem to have very different foreign d policies however u. S. Media admits that there will be very little chance of significant change if biden takes the Oval Office Donald trump which himself as an outsider remember well it appears that he really did have no experience when it came to dealing with friends and foes trump has left us Foreign Policy in tatters he has pulled out of many Key International agreements however what would change with the reins of power handed over to a potential biden as commander in chief someone who supported the u. S. Invasion of afghanistan iraq and yugoslavia probably not much able to mop an artsy new york u. S. Libertarian National Committee member west benedict believes bidens approach to Foreign Policy may look more sophisticated but at its heart its not all that different from trumps. President biden would be more diplomatic hed be more polite but when you look at his actual policies i dont think they would be what im looking for i think what you have is a change in personalities but not a change in policies bidens Foreign Policy is almost going to be the same as trumps although there may be a risk that he would start a new war trump trump is talk tough hes talked tough with iran china and even russia but it was president obama and Vice President biden who started a new war in libya they continued bombing in germany and other places so i dont think that Foreign Policy will be better with biden it might actually get worse. Cova tightening its grip worldwide r. T. Has heard from a leading evolutionary biologist who has conducted extensive studies into the virus hes explained how it mutates and how outbreaks can be dealt with in cats the full interview on our website but heres a quick preview. I think its a blessing the crown of arses evolve more slowly than other r. N. A. Viruses but still its a very quick process the virus mutates every 2 weeks but in one specific lineage what is a specific leni age well thus infects mush mush infects pets or pets infects tanya in such a lineage the virus mutates once but at the same time a similar process is taking place across the globe since different viruses acquire different mutations in total we see tens of thousands of mutations we can already see approximately 20000. 00 mutations. That is 20000 versions of the same corona virus that is believed to have her originated and one where. We now see that the common ancestor was around in december or january the genomes of all the coronaviruses we are sequencing and studying right now show that they are all descended from one common ancestor which existed back then so it seems to me very unlikely that the virus infected a person before that time. So. There is a widespread belief that the virus does not exist in order to kill the owner but in order to somehow perfectly adapt to it and live quietly inside them. Actually this is not what the virus cares about most we know a huge number of examples one of our success didnt put play sions for many many is many centuries and did not weaken smallpox for example on measles which is fatal in a large proportion of cases if there is no treatment but generally it often happens that the mortality rate does not change at all. So there is no guarantee that couvade 19 will somehow become less dangerous. But here in the near future there are no guarantees of that in while in europe the coronavirus is on the rampage once again countries are further tightening restrictions as they attempt to hold back the invisible enemy but with now many suffering covert fatigue after months of measures impacting their lives the new move isnt going down very well peter all over reports. Italy and spain are the latest nations to put in place new restrictions on their populations in an attempt to try and get the number of covert 19 infections down in italy theyve seen the number of cases double each week over the last 3 weeks in spain they vented whats being called a state of alarm thats putting in place a curfew for the next 15 days people not allowed out on the streets from 11 at night until 6 in the morning now politicians there also wanting to extend a state of emergency in the country for a further 6 months now in italy what weve seen is new rules come in place regarding restaurants and dining out all restaurants are going to have to shut their doors to customers from 6 pm at night on the 4 people allowed at a table while theyre allowed to be open they are allowed to continue serving takeout after that but there is a strict rule against any Food Consumption or drinking on the streets or in public areas after 6 pm these new rules well theres been pushback against them in both naples and in rome. Well not everybody has gone to those extreme levels that we just saw in naples and rome but italians in general and people in spain as well and happy about the measures that have been put in place on them with some saying simply wont work as i thought it was a its a disaster it will be devastating for many people and many families that work in the nightlife industry going to be uncertain you know. This makes me suspect that in the end the problem will transform from a senator issue into an economic one and that is where the real problem lies. Yakety. Yeah and i am ashamed to be talian because the government is carrying out psychological terrorism we traders be forced to shut down one of. These a quite drastic measures but they are kind of in the middle its not the real up down its a look down by holmes here in germany we recently passed 10000 deaths while each one of them is a tragedy and its own rights germany has failed considerably better than many of its neighbors in fact almost all of its neighbors despite the performance though there are those that are extremely unhappy with the way the German Government has handled the pandemic in fact on sunday we saw protests on the streets here in berlin there were some clashes with police and arrests were made cases of covert 19 of also being rising in russia as well over 17000 new infections in the last 24 hours no less help in sight it seems as the world continues to try and fight against covert 19 but its keeping that balance between trying to keep populations healthy and trying to keep economies of float that seeing tensions rise in areas. And extends to years in the making Global Survey has shown all over the world people in their thirtys are losing faith in democracy we discuss why that may be with renowned philosopher. After the break. Join me every thursday on the alex simon show and ill be speaking to guest of the world of politics or business im show business ill see you there. Youll be a reflection of reality. In the world transformed. What will make you feel safe. Isolation will community. You good in the right way or are you being so. Direct. What is true what is fake. In the world corrupted you need to descend. To join us in the death. Or remain in the shadows. Welcome back to the program now donald trump has vowed to straighten out the conflict between armenia and azerbaijan over the disputed nagornokarabakh region he spoke at length to his supporters on sunday and the problems that they have in that death and the fighting and Everything Else will get that straightened out thats going to be i call that an easy one ok well get that go back and tell you if we. Are meeting. Its easy if you know what youre doing you know what youre doing its like that if you know what youre doing its easy. That easy case donald trump mention there stretches back more than 3 decades the disputed region is populated mainly by Ethnic Armenians which azerbaijan calls an illegal occupation the fighting escalated in late september now the sides have agreed to pause hostilities for a 3rd time the new cease fire was agreed in washington and announced on sunday night just an hour after Donald Trumps speech in new hampshire. But fighting continued on monday with both sides blaming each other for violating the cease fire just minutes after it came into effect that follows the pattern of the previous 2 deals agreed to in moscow public and International Affairs professor Paul Robinson believes donald trump is simplifying a very complex dispute its not as easy a see as he makes out to be less of an absolute trump. The problem here is really pretty irreconcilable redlines the as a president. Has said that is a red line is a territory must be returned to it includes both going to carve out in various as every problem says which i mean you can show on the other hand the prime minister. Has said that his red line is the substance of a nation of the people not going to come about must be respected those 2 guidelines are completely incompatible. Now the news people in their thirtys around the world continue to have less faith in Democratic Institutions than previous generations thats according to a survey by Cambridge University researchers quizzed close to 5000000. 00 people in 160 countries the study ran for nearly 5 decades and all the while it cant just people around the age of 30 about their views on democracy each subsequent generation of 30 somethings reported less satisfaction and trust in their political systems we asked people in paris london and San Francisco what they think about their democracies. I dont necessarily believe that it works the way it should. I still believe in democracy but i dont have confidence in the current government the center for democracy is there but i dont think its being implemented properly i think the state of democracy is more risk than it has been before hold that this is tim is looking increasingly like a dictatorship to me personally i think its true that its all broke. Parents stone age u. K. And then nothing i can say is kind of because were not really in and many more our generation is in there you see people that are. 506070 that are running the government the way that they see fit and now were taking the Younger Generation into consideration young people being very will be able recently with. A. Student. Not being able to afford a mortgage that kind of thing and i think thats fair i didnt see them believing that democracy is the story i think a lot of it is just a lack of confidence that the politician has. To go any integrity so actually i think people of my generation do not trust the system we get the impression the very thing in chief nothing is lost. Believes liberal establishment in western countries have fallen out of touch with the public. Its not just for. Feeling the mental dissatisfaction that cannot be sure but i did this in a presentation or democracy so what we have dealing here. In the fundamental. Inability of. Democracy doing it just to function there is a land there are again folks being young and so on and simply escape beat and their agent is dead we dont get to be here wait. How do we bring the door. Ive seen the intermission to change in the democracy chests we should always remember that even the presentation of democracy is not a new interest in the only star beast if there is a group. Including the morrow going there already knowing that. Its sad. No matter how just. Misses some. Kind. Of state. Push which can even be formally the last democratic moral. Well you know but we somehow dangerous. We dont. Even. Know you dont know who. Knew well i didnt do this you should is no. Induced. Oh you. Knew covert 19 measures have sparked massive riots in the spanish city of barcelona thousands took to one of the main squares in the capital and capital protests have been taking place in response to public restrictions imposed on sunday hope to stem a rise in coronavirus cases the demonstrations turned violent as protesters blocked the streets near the Parliament Building and set fire to trash cans. Handwritten speech notes by adult hitler have sold out of munich auction house 434000 euros thats significantly more than their starting price the manuscripts are believed to have been written by hitler in 1939 they were the basis for speeches to nazi organizations referring to germanys war preparations and its quote jewish problem the sale has outraged jewish groups. I cannot get my head around the ship irresponsibility an insensitivity and such a fee bro climate of sending items such as the ramblings of the worlds biggest killer of jews so the highest bid amid fears neo nazi groups might bid for the documents as a trophy the auction house selling the lot claimed it had taken precautions to ensure the notes didnt fall into the wrong hands. We have made special arrangements for the bias to ensure that we are not selling any of it to right wing to radical collectors they will have to hand in written assurances that is for investigate if it could demick work investigation by historians analysts richard purposes. We spoke to the editor of an online magazine history central who isnt convinced by the auction houses argument this is a particularly difficult time because of the growth of neo nazi ism in germany and we always had a beef we always worried about that since world war 2 ended whether youre from the west of the east everyones always worried about the reemergence of naziism and we certainly know dont want to give them tools to enhance their movements and by allowing these documents to hopefully not but may have landed in their hands were giving them tools to enhance their movements and thats very bad and im sorry that the German Government didnt find a way of seizing them buying them doing whatever was necessary to bury them because thats what needed to be done these documents had to be buried in an archive and not sold to the highest bidder. More great programs get going in moments here at r. T. International d find out what showing wherever you are today after the shortest of breaks live for now and thanks for watching.
