Being ran through the tabulating machines numerous times being counted 8 to 10 times newer with a return address chanst fuel cells and. Making sure you never miss a story of this is alt International Thanks for choosing us this friday. Well to start us off this hour the talk this president has knocked down his french counterpart claiming hes a bargain to his country and should step down it represents a new low in relations between one on mccrone comes as paris next to crackdown on radical islam following a wave of terrorism in france. Kron is a burden on france and france are going through a very dangerous period actually my hope is that france gets rid of this mccraw in trouble as soon as possible well the spat between the turkish president adeline and france has been deepening for some time now you will remember that last week the French Senate adopted a non binding resolution in which they officially recognize the independence of Nagorno Karabakh and they called for Azerbaijani Forces to need cleaning the wall from territories that had been captured in the disputed territory from september the 27th theyre also calling for an International Investigation into war crimes and at the same time prohibited weapons and senators also recommended that the french government look into the role that has played and has called for Decisive Action against turkey now its it all of this while at the same time saying that frances Foreign Policy has not changed but of course those angered azerbaijans closest ally turkey. As a buddy president believe heard some advice for the french what did he say if they love the armenian so much they should give more suits of the media was making the same recommendation if they loved him so much of them are so. The french president also caused outrage last month in the muslim world when he defended the right to publish cartoons of prophet mohammed. The. His criticism of political islam comes in the wake of the killing of a french teacher samuel patty that angered adeline and other International Leaders not everyone has responded by comparing the treatment of muslims to that of jews before world war 2 and hes also questioned the Mental Health of the french president at the same time you have a deepening of tensions between it. And the European Union and in recent years weve seen the relations get increasingly right here brussels has repeatedly expressed content concern and protested of turkeys exploration of natural gas off the coast of cyprus and greece reached out to. Us mint is negative with the continuation of you know actual acts and hostile rhetoric will have the debate of the european summit on december the terms and were ready to use the means to tell disposal must stop its provocations and its hostile rhetoric and as we heard there the European Union summit on the 10th of this month and e. U. Member states potentially discussing. Measures that they can take against and. President refused to respond to are the ones comments and interview though he did highlight that france is under attack for protecting free speech well for all of their speaking go live to charlotte defense teeth in paris. What else did we hear the french need to say. Well president michel attempting to take the Higher Ground in that long wide ranging interview broadcast over the internet on friday he talked about what was happening in turkey he didnt address it directly but what he did say is that he was clear that there was a fundamental difference between france and turkey says suggesting that tookie was a north or a terry in state that was when he was talking relation to issues over freedom of the press and he also in that interview touched on things such as Police Violence saying that he understood that there was violence within the Police Forces but he didnt think that that was an institutional problem he thought that was an individual problem just like you said there is violence in the general society theres also violence within the police but he also admitted that discrimination has played into a lot of the problems here in france particularly when it comes to the issues surrounding islam isnt saying that france was not against islam but hes aware that some of the problems here were home grown and he was looking to tackle those now he also talked at length about the Global Security bill this is a hugely controversial subject here in france and weve seen protests about that much criticized law over the past 2 weeks now with the protests are because many individuals journalists groups n. G. O. S and even the u. N. Have criticized article 20. Criminalized the publication of images of the police had there been intent to harm now the out rule as a result of that has resulted in the ruling party saying they will now look at writing that specific all article that part of the law but present back on being quite clear in that interview on friday that while it may be written. The essence of what article 24 stood for will not change now that is likely to infuriate many people who say that it would even pinch freedom of the press that it would allow the police to have the green light to stop the press from filming to stop at the public from filming is well i know my quince said that this wasnt about reducing freedom the press this wasnt about reducing the rights of citizens but this is about protecting the police and there are more press guests do that local security build over the weekend and it comes when there is even more pressure on my own and the ruling party in regards to not just article 24 but also the entirety of the bill as a un panel of experts has said that they dont believe that this bill is in line with issues surrounding human rights situation in fact they said it was incompatible with International Human rights legislation and theyve called for the entire bill to be completely rewritten was certainly looks like macross facing pushback not just at home but now also abroad that was. Reporting from the french capital. One of the latest vaccines being put forward to or tackle coronavirus in the u. K. Has come under increasing scrutiny the c. E. O. Of pfizer admitted its job may not stop those who take it from spreading the virus. Even though its good that protection and most. Of the people i think this is something that needs to be examined we are not certain about that right now 2 days ago it was the news we were all awaiting for it was described as a historic moment but now it seems like its historic so all the wrong reasons the approval of course of the covert 900 vaccination just a few days ago by the british medical regulated meant that as soon as next week the vaccine could be rolled out but now its been proved almost too good to be true of course the United Kingdom was celebrating being world beating well leading and now it seems as though it potentially is just a guinea pig in the science of all of it not because pfizer has come out to admit that actually while the job might be 95 percent effective against david 19 there is by no means any guarantee that it can prevent carrying the transmission of that 19 as well now interestingly the e. U. Regulator and the u. S. Top Health Officials have both come out say that the u. K. Has entirely jumped the gun here its been far too quick in its procedures because for their for their every settings they think that approval process is necessary to ensure safety and effective ety kind of a real around the corner of the marathon because. They really rushed. Well there you heard from the top u. S. Immunologist who has since apologized for slamming the u. K. s too hastily oversee private trucking saying it was all a misunderstanding however the initial statement sparked some controversy and apparently put the director of the National Institute of allergy and Infectious Diseases on the defensive but regardless 40000000 doses have been preordered by the United Kingdom the 1st batch of 1st supply will head towards the United Kingdom as soon as next week it could be around the figure of 400000 doses many immunization could start within the next few weeks now top of the list as those most vulnerable those over the age of 80 carry home residents and stop. And of course those n. H. S. Workers on the front line however there were many people gossip casting doubt even right here within the United Kingdom particularly over the logistics whether or not there may be a lag as soon as next week is just around the corner but also in terms of the distribution of the vaccine as well considering it needs to be stored in conditions of minus 70 degrees so those handling the vaccine argue that they need to be instructed exactly how to do so then of course theres the political narrative in all of this because the government has been criticized for many a failure throughout the 1000 pandemic from selfimposed targets and deadlines certain missed to really just handling the crisis in general now many people would argue that we really need to see these promises being delivered at this point in time its more of a case of more talk rather than action especially when were hearing rhetoric like this from cabinet ministers i just reckon weve got the very best people in this country weve got the best medical regulators much better than the french are better than the belgians have much better than the americans and that doesnt surprise me so because we are much better country than every single one of that also so it did help but weve recruited far and using will in. The number of births in the u. K. Must prove that we are in march worse come true than france and belgium not the us so obviously what the facile boost that sort of thing you hear in the playground not from an n. P. R. National radio world teaching jingoism. Brits got it 1st because of how badly theyre doing in controlling coverage 19 so exactly the opposite of what theyre claiming today governor williamson saying that the United Kingdom is world leading and is a much better nation than any other but at what is the question the public really have for joining us on the line now is far and carney his senior clinical act charge the university of exeter good to have you with us my father who is is rushing through the approval process justified in this case you know coronavirus his home to so many lives for most a year now what normally would be a good time to make the relevant checks rushing through and cutting safety corners are 2 separate issues so as long as no safety corners have been cut and patients Peoples Health and wellbeing have not been put at risk then getting it through rushed in and the words is not a wrong thing to do what we want to ask the question is we hope you have not cut any corners to put Peoples Health and wellbeing at risk and i dont think so i hope for 8 in the mh already as an independent body to hold work very hard to have rushed it but not cut health and safety concerns about giving that scene to otherwise fit and Healthy People and now americas top Infectious Disease expert has stress that this isnt a race and that it needs more time to assess europe does to now appearing not from someone who is so high up is it is going to. Undermine Public Confidence a little bit. I hope not and one thing i could also say is that dr eminent person also retracted and said this is not what he really meant and i would go along the following lines i dont think the mh are a have cut any safety concerns or safety corners and i dont think they would ever authorize a vaccine that was not safe so i would say to members of the public if it is authorized by a group presented to or torah t. V. Then please rest assured they would have gone through it terribly they might have rushed but that doesnt mean they cut corners now we also heard a bit earlier the c. E. O. Of admitting that the vaccine might not actually stop those who have the child from spreading the virus i mean it doesnt really inspire confidence and sometimes i mean i can see how someone would say then why would i do it. This is very good and it is a really good important question for our viewers to understand so let me just take you through it i dont buy item you can get a vaccine that protects you so terribly that you do not suffer from mild illness and you do not suffer from severe illness and you are terribly protected point one on the other hand you can have a vaccine that prevents you from getting see if youre ill ness and probably dying from it as well but on the other hand it gives you a mild illness and whilst you got the mild illness you could be infected and infectious nevertheless if it is in the 2nd category which what pfizer c. E. O. Is saying it may be in the 1st category it may be in the 2nd category we dont know anyway even if it is in the 2nd category it is saving lives it is preventing severe illness if may act as a transmitter but if you think about it if a lot of people a lot of people are also immunized then what will happen is they all. I have mild illness but a mild illness like the common cold doesnt really matter as long as you dont get severe illness and you dont die then weve got a good vaccine that to has worked and finally i want to ask you a lot of people have criticized the u. K. Government theyre not good at testing but not good at sending messages are they going to be good in affective actually rolling out a vaccine especially if there are issues you know holding at minus 70 has to be under strictly controlled environment whats whats your take on this well we are a industry developed nation and weve got the facilities the clever people the armaments the logistics for keeping these vaccines at minus 70 degrees centigrade and then monitoring the cold chain processes as it is called and then stored safely for 5 days and then given weve got all those checks and balances because we have a good what we would call a primary Immunization Program in the country so what would i say i would say to the politicians a lot of the Health Experts to parse on the Health Messages and the Health Benefits of the Immunization Program engaged with the how to experts on how to roll out the program rather than the politicians coming to the front line to take credit for something that has finally arrived well thank you so much for giving your insight and to that i have here enjoy your beautiful Christmas Tree for high and you you and your. Employees of russia affiliated News Agencies both news on sputnik a lot here have been released from interrogations on condition they will not leave latvia that after the journalists were charged with violating. Of hassle the details. Of the moment is that theyve been accused of violating personal European Union sanctions against the c. E. O. Of russias a receipt a subordinate news agency. Me tricky still for now the Russian Foreign ministry they have already reacted to whats happening in riga and they said that latvias crackdown on russian speaking journalists under the pretext of the violation of the use sanctions is absolutely unacceptable the Foreign Ministry said that the e. U. Descriptions are of a personal nature against mr gissin and they cannot apply to just about everyone who cooperates with the news outlets that are on there his managements and they consider the aggressive actions of. Security service a blatant example of violating the foundations for Democratic Society which is freedom of media and expression it is a completely punitive action which leaves no doubt about the use of phobic subtext of the fabricated accusations you would think a crackdown on dissent violation of the fundamental principles of freedom of speech were totally incompatible with the status of an enlightened european state but thats the case and what the complaint before so dissenting media is gaining momentum now the accused journalists and their colleagues certainly. Outraged and mind you this is a criminal indictment against journalists and theyre being persecuted for coal parading with the russian news outlets now that crackdown on the russian speaking latvian journalist. Well it had all of the intimidating attributes and features and there were searches in the homes and places of work there was confessed cations of personal property and equipment they were interrogating which lasted for hours one person was interviewed for 8 hours terribly after all of that was done the journalists were released but they were asked to stay in latvia and must leave the country and of course sign a nondisclosure agreement sputnik had a statement about this was well the lot when citizens are accused of violating the sanctions regime be. Because of the work for the receipt civil or the news agency because its a lot of money and is tonia the agency subject to the personal sanctions of the imposed on the agencys general director jim its really sort of intuitive foreseen now Russian Mission and the sea they also expressed their concern they tweeted out saying this is another flagrant violation by rigo of the o. E. C. D. Commitments on freedom of speech and access to information and persecution of russian speaking journalists in the baltic countries is not something new for example just the end of last year going into this year sputnik stone and now there journalists were forced to. Break their contracts with sputnik because this tony and. Police were threatening them with jail terms of up to 5 years so basically they were forced to resign and police also cited these 2014 you sanctions person begins mr he said however the outlets that weve been talking about today none of them have ever appeared on the sanctions list so thats what we have for now what i was some small protests in week i felt against the charges and we also had reaction from factions. State affiliated media. Are all over in the United States in israel in many other places what is the army radio in israel what is the b. B. C. What is the voice of america if one starts a tripping journalists are d other then Media Persons just because our their livelihood depends on the state already on some our reach person who owns the network that is unfair and journalists the world over should rise up against the question was question is why have they done this no and of course the question is is it legitimate to use sanctions as a means of preventing the terms of use that you dont like and of course at the most extreme we saw that in the news for you slowly the bombing of the Serbian National t. V. Station or the missiles that were used to take a 0 offices in kabul during the the afghan war. As u. S. President elect joe biden has invited donald trump to his animal curation and claims it will give a positive sign at the postelection chaos is ending but its unclear whether the millions who still think the victory was stolen from trump believe this move will heal the divisions. No. Trump supporters are still coming out chanting stop the steele and citing multiple irregularities officials in the swing state of georgia though say a 2nd recount should confirm by to announce the winner of the court and looks at how the dispute is affecting the reputation of the u. S. Election. Was only about a month left until the big transition of power in the white house and yet it looks like the battle for the presidency is not yet over this may be the most important speech ive ever made i want to provide an update on our own going efforts to expose the tremendous voter fraud and irregularities which took place during the ridiculous lead along nov 3rd elections if we are right about the fraud. Joe biden cant be President Trump is sticking to his guns still insisting he was cheated out of the election and calling on the Supreme Court to overturn the results his lawyers though have yet to prove their case and the Justice Department says the Current Administration is full of baloney so what is it that the Trump Administration is making such a fuss about while in new york one u. S. P. S. Driver claimed a trailer with thousands of ballots disappeared into thin air i knew it with return addresses for thousands of them while in wisconsin an ex postal worker even claimed his coworkers were ordered to backdate the ballots u. S. P. S. Employees were ordered to backdate ballots that were received too late to be lawfully counted ballots in liveries in the middle of the night people filling in the blank ballots for biden misplacing duplicate some other wisconsin poll workers claim similar violations as well as the widely shared testimony from this michigan election contractor who claimed she blew the lid off some dodgy dealings in detroit there was. Actually the ballots being ran through the tabulating machines numerous times being counted 8 to 10 times her testimony has already been put through the wringer of Public Opinion and the Justice Departments also made up its mind about these claims we have not seen fruit on the scale that could have afflicted a different outcome in the election. The thing is though the d. O. J. Wont say why what does raise the eyebrows of conservative officials all were asking for is own where there is evidence of improper impropriety that you examine and we want the transparency we want to understand is investigation going on. What kind of investigation what are you looking for for years americans have been told evil russian meddling is undermining democracy and now that biden seems to have won the election theres not so much as a whisper on that front to the russians really just decide to sit out this very important election or perhaps the very system itself is at fault here its clear that these elections are corrupt through and through but not for the reasons that donald trump highlights the corrupt through and through because theres an Electoral College that does not recognize the popular vote theres already a complete lack of trust people do not respect the Electoral College most americans cant even explain the Electoral College or provide any type of justification or logic for which there is none Many Americans dont even participate in president ial elections because they understand that its. A choice between 2 oppresses for the next 4 years between tweedle dee in tweedledum. Trump is just expose the system for the right in created these seizures that have long existed. The taking in the us proof of sand and bias against donald trump thats how an american conservative group as described looked tapes of Conference Calls held by the news network and one clip released by project veritas a c. N. N. Special correspondent is had saying that she was advised by will make us not to give trump too much airtime. I just keep hearing the same thing both from republicans who have not been there to congratulate biden. But also to show you who have been the democrats and that is we have to be you know news organizations have to be very curable in response with all out not keeping track of too much of a platform. Here. To heating. The trolls additional to go forward while the correspondent has self hasnt commented on the race tapes yet however that night was Communications Team has tweeted that project veritas may have broken all by snooping on its staf and have referred the case to lure in full front other on the Communications Manager for a project heart as a self who gave me his take on it all from inside. You hear the outgoing president of c. N. N. Jeff zucker dictating to his hosts Reporters Editors and producers what the news will be not based on whether it is true not based on whether its important but whether or not it fits jeff zuckers world view and personal political agenda theres no diversity of opinion nobody objects nobody challenges c. N. N. Did react very quickly on twitter that said that is going to get your in full sun involved my question is are you ready and do you think the door is on your side i dont believe for a minute that the police are to come knocking on our door everything that project veritas does is legal we have a very well trained and very well paid legal staff and im highly confident that everything we did was within the legal guard rails you know and no one has called us from from Law Enforcement thats just something they said that tweet came from cnns p. R. Staff and i think you can call that a p. R. Stunt and i want to ask you one of the tables what todd and and youll private discussions without his work space would you support it as while the one who is objecting c. N. N. I mean they ran secretly recorded tapes of 1st lady malani a trump just weeks ago they were in the access hollywood tapes they ran tapes secretly recorded of mitt romney when he was the 2012 republican candidate for president the idea that c. N. N. Is suddenly upset. About somebody were chris secretly recording the meeting or a Conference Call and put and putting out to the public thats absolutely absurd then he could also appear to show c. N. N. Chief jeff zucker employees not to normalize trumps claims on the election he go on e town unless lionel told us that he believes that news outlets which shout the most about their posh out of tea usually show the least. So the question is what role did okeefe play because if he if he just got the number himself and somebody lets say just gave it to him and he dialed in himself never being a part of us i think you may have legal problems but this is weird because now we have zoomed cause and now we have new areas of conversation and conference its not a one on one conversation and dont forget lionels law the law always lags behind technology if we had done the same thing lets say 2. Or. Something how bad you we would maybe hear something maybe not as blatant as that but certainly a journalistic bias and there are other people who say this is the brand the idea of you tuning in to c. N. N. You want to hear a liberal anti trump stuff im sorry but thats a fact so being true to the bad brand to the shareholders they have to produce but heres the thing which is amazing when you look at people who go out of their way to see we are the news we are unbiased fair and balanced is this in essence a form of trademark law is this perjury to say enjoy any kind of liability for misleading the consumer if i tell you something is 100 calories but its 200 youve got to believe i may get a lawsuit from lying about the content why shouldnt it apply otherwise watch this being addressed in the courts coming up. Thanks for keeping me company
