We see that the situation with the spread of coronavirus in each of the region is these differences as ive already said in one region tough justified preventative measures need to be maintained or even toughened and in others its possible to plan to ease that move justified but thats only possible based on the opinion of scientists specialists and taking into account all factors and possible risks i emphasize again we must not run ahead of ourselves any negligence or haste can cause a breakdown and roll back the price of the slightest mistake is the safety lives and health of our people. Of course the numbers themselves dont reveal the extent of the very deep personal grief suffered by families arties online series epidemic has been hearing from people who suffered tragic losses early on in the outbreak was still unclear what was happening. I want to go home when will you pick me up and those were his last words. I was such a skeptic i had so much bravado about the coronavirus i was taking a suburban train to moscow it was the last working week i had to deliver 8 movies i have a studio sash and i have a studio we both fell ill as for me i have the health of an ox i know feel sick and i dont remember what a High Temperature looks like but 38 up to 39 degrees celsius then i realize that this cold with 90 and things was rio the chief medical officer said hes taken my husband under his personal responsibility everything will be taken care of of course everything will be all right as there was a potion the entry road to moscow got to be run out of times he was gone. The whole family fell ill my children and i lived or lived with my parents there were 5 of us together and both my dad and mom felt war simultaneously almost of the same time unfortunately i had a phone call on the 6th of april as the doctor himself told me the time and the day of my fathers death and offered his condolences but his. He had been in hospital for 11 days right it was his 11th day on a ventilator yes he passed away on the 6th of april at 8 40 pm when i was emotional because of it i was wondering if you knew about my mom. So they just marked their 45th wedding anniversary this year im so ashamed that until their final days i cant say i didnt have health a strong as my parents my mom for example could go to the Research Institute she worked at go to the university she was a professor at the b. To me all the department and give a lecture there then she went home cooked to mayo and did some cleaning with the she picked up her grandchildren to look after them i couldnt understand how one person was able to do all that. Great if your father was a physicist wasnt he here yes he was a famous russian and so good laser physicist and experimental physicist his work wasnt just the eerie all his discoveries still have practical use today my parents did a lot and its a shame they could have done much more. As did i waited until the very last moment hoping they would call me and tell me there had been a mistake it can be true i said he was really young daniel was so neat and tidy and he understood barbarous was a very dangerous which is in fact did everything and we always sanitized our hands even when we traveled from the airport by taxi with doesnt back to the car with alcohol i cant understand how this happened or. I did he have a chronic disease just because of you. Know. Nothing at all you know he had. Its hard to examine 3 years ago but hes too young for Heart Disease yes hes just 40 years old did he have diabetes no no for existing conditions he was an absolutely healthy young man yes. People are like was that support you fear nothing with them various side. People honey you can always rely on them. And then by that but suddenly one of those walls come. In i dont know what will happen to me lax. World leaders pledged almost 700000000000 euro to Fund Development of a Coronavirus Vaccine at a Video Conference on monday falling just slightly short one of the targets set by the European Commission which organized the fundraiser with more on who stepped up to the plate and who didnt even show up his europe correspondent peter oliver. Mondays online summit ended with a presentation hosted by European Commission president live on the line and which they said how much these nations were going to be giving and why this was an important joint cooperation honestly the presentation looked a little bit like a cross between a telephone and the results section of the euro vision song contest but instead of order issuing points to various different nations well they were issuing pledges of in some cases hundreds of millions of year 0 the overarching message though coming out from what the World Leaders had to say was that this has to be a joint effort internationally and at no stage can it turn into an arms race we have to join forces pull our money and our minds to kick start work on vaccines diagnostics and treatments against coronavirus so the sun when the vaccine is ready yet has to be for the worldwide public good it has to belong to us all the race to discover the vaccine to defeat this virus is not a competition between countries but the most urgent shared endeavor of our lifetimes its humanity against the virus we have a common vision that does not include people 1st everywhere one of those they should is not taking part was the United States of America Donald trumps america 1st policy doesnt really sit all that well alongside International Cooperation the us president has said that hes confident in his country discovering a vaccine to the corona virus we are very confident that were going to have a vaccine at the end of the year by the end of the year have a vaccine its not just the u. S. President expressing that sense of it saying u. S. Officials as well have said theyre not sure about getting involved in a cooperative effort to find a covert 19 vaccine saying that the commercial implications the geo political implications of having such a vaccine. Might not be worth sharing Biomedical Research has long been a focus of theft especially by the Chinese Government and vaccines and treatments for the corona virus are todays holy grail putting aside the commercial value there would be great you political significance to being the 1st to develop a treatment or vaccine we will use all the tools we have to safeguard American Research also not present on that video call with russias president Vladimir Putins russia has said they support this Global Initiative but are supporting it only as an observer so far that may change as things develop down the line but for those that did take part they said as i said that overarching message was that its only through International Cooperation that we can find a solution to the coronavirus that works for all d nations around the planet. Italys been getting its 1st taste of life after lockdown as measures slowly began being eased on monday workers and Small Business owners turned out to raise awareness of just how dire peoples finances are right now worsened by nearly 2 months of confinement. It was. Desperate to try and get the livelihoods back on track asap they demanded being allowed to reopen their businesses and also appealed for leaders to grant tax breaks to prevent the vital venetian tourism and Food Industries from collapsing italy was the 1st nation to impose strict measures as coronavirus took hold in what was europes 1st flashpoint is currently 3rd in the world when it comes to the number of deaths even so 4000000 italians headed back to work on monday while others got their 1st prolonged period out in the fresh air in 2 months but many others too are in no rush is for a bit c o g the lives on the adriatic coast showed us. People of the walking we are still not that large to stay in big groups but its just people who knows each other at least so im a walking. Riding on my bike secure although as you can see there are no cars on the road you see on the few good thinks these slow down i mean really bored to sort of clear interest but. After 45 days of lockdown sparks are going to cease that everything hes closed was the left open all day our Economic Activities your thoughts copters birthday today is that he is the cause for most people walking on the beach at this point despite as you can see there are no so many. The numbers defining all aspects of the pandemic are frankly staggering with livelihoods and industries almost unrecognizable from just a few weeks ago in the United States record unemployment is no worse than the Great Depression nearly a century ago this column open explains. The latest numbers confirm that we are at Great Depression levels at this point 20500000 jobs have been lost and that brings the official Unemployment Rate to about 15 percent now this is actually represents an entire decade of jobs lost basically all the jobs gained since the 2008 financial meltdown have gone away now donald trump is speaking up and saying he should not be blamed for this this is not his fault this is us President Donald Trump yeah its totally expected theres no surprise Everybody Knows that somebody said oh look at this well you know even the democrats are blaming me for that those jobs will all be back it up be back very soon now we have heard at least one democrat voice that has blames donald trump take a listen. This is president trumps economic legacy cracks in the economy as a result of his trade wars and tax cuts have now spread wide open as a result of his ignorance and incompetence so whos the hardest hit well jobs have been significantly lost among hospitality workers as well as leisure retail workers and professional and Business Services but the interesting thing about those statistics is they dont include a lot of workers in the United States many have written about how in the usa we have more or less a gig economy where we have workers without contract workers that are independent contractors theyre not officially counted among the unemployed when they stop getting work for for example like goober drivers and many others in this good economy they dont you know get factored into those unemployment statistics so the actual rate of job loss and income loss is significantly higher now Silicon Valley has been pretty badly hit many tech giants have apparently laid off workers and hoover has at this point reduced its staff by 14 percent and we have the opportunity to talk to some americans about these numbers and about the unemployment and the economic toll of the coded 1000. 00 pandemic here is what we heard they have an obligation to themselves a company to pick going to be cant afford to pay people when people arent spending money. You know its its set to trickle down effect who have money to spend it and boost the economy if theres no money coming down to peoples pockets they cant spend it so how do you expect to pay your buddies now a total of 33000000. 00 americans have filed to receive Unemployment Benefits sense mid march and around the country we are seeing these protests calling for the opening up and lifting of restrictions the ante lockdown protests however many people look at those anti lockdown protesters that are calling for the lifting of Health Regulations and saying that by. Gathering in big groups by by being loud and assembling and being in close proximity to each other theyre probably making the Health Measures that caused these regulations in the lock down to be put into effect theyre probably making the Health Situation worse so quite a bad situation economically in addition to the Ongoing Health effects of the pandemic this is all its International Live from moscow with me kevin when times are tough right now of course but this weekend many nations have been remembering the defeat of a deadlier enemy at a time of even greater suffering the guess is been taken up the part they played in ending the 2nd world war well tell you in the week they were turned off today. You cant be both with the yeah youre right. Again good evening from moscow on saturday russia Marc Thiessen 5th anniversary of victory day remembering the key moment when soviet troops captured berlin forcing the nazis into surrender other countries who fought has been marking the triumph of a fascism too although the white house seems to have a somewhat distorted memory of who did what. On maybe 8945 american Great Britain had victory over the nazis americas spirit will always win in the end thats what happens the 2nd world war was the 20th centurys darkest chapter and more than 80000000 lives were lost while the u. S. And britain suffered over 800000 deaths the soviet union bore the brunt of the casualties with a run 26000000 killed as the war drew to a close 1500000 soviet troops took part in the battle for berlin launched in april my 945 the red army captured the german capital in may as fellow allied nations broke the nazi machine on the western front by may the 8th it was over the 3rd reich had fallen the nazis surrendered most countries have given little. Polish when remembering their war efforts over the years but more than a few are not happy at the White House White washing the facts now. Absolutely false it was the soviet union that defeated nazi germany now the u. S. And u. K. Throughout most of world war 2 the u. S. And u. K. Face just 10 german divisions combined the soviets alone fired more than 200 german divisions the white house is trying to rewrite history u. S. Propaganda in steroids at least respect history the u. S. S. R. Conquered berlin and ended the war after losing almost 30000000 lives dont they normally have speechwriters so we should take his cranes off him only the u. S. And Great Britain get to houston book not sure of this ignorance arrogance but both hugely disrespectful and regardless what anyone thinks of the former soviet union in reality it was they who took the lane and it was they who lost more of the country man than any other nation the only place where usa wins w. W. 2 Russian Foreign ministry is furious at the white house tweet saying it wants serious dialogue with washington now of the continued attempts to distort and downplay the soviet unions role in the war for years to promote trusts and also peter because nick the director of the Nuclear Studies institute says perpetuating a story call ignorance is a reckless move. They have era conversion of events it is that i think it was sort of projecting back from the present time where the United States is the leader of all progressive humanity standing up for human rights democracy etc etc and they are retro actively projecting that be you american dominance on to history including on to the 2nd world war our attitude toward the soviet union even in the depths of the 1st cold war was far more careful and floor more respectable than it is toward post communist russia problem though is what it says about current attitudes we are there is a very strong sense from the american establishment that they can simply didnt dictate terms to the rest of the world and they have an almost cavalier reckless added to toward insu
