From moscow thanks for joining us there at r. T. International im Daniel Hawkins welcome to the program. Has been left. To see the test results showing critical was poisoned with germanys directed russia to the Global Chemical weapons watchdog but the o. P. C. W. Says it should talk to. Their excuses are completely contrived germany says it cant tell us anything in direct to the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons weve been to the c. W. Several times and they say talk to berlin we are ready to talk to anyone but not when in the absence of facts we are pressured into giving an account of ourselves on the basis of specific clearly formulated concerns we are always ready to have a professional conversation. Russia insists its doctors found no trace of lava charcoal or any other poison when he was in their care its repeatedly throughout this willingness to cooperate in order to establish exactly what happened in wa independent by france and sweden of also the presence of a nerve agent youve been looking at the latest controversies surrounding the case. Alexina volley is recovering whatever it was killing his body is on retreat and the politician seems to be almost out of these woods so concerns over his health make room for concerns over what exactly happened and europe is demanding that russia aids the investigation installations arise which only the russian government can and must answer we continue calling us here to investigate this our demand is that russia urgently explain what happened well russia has already contributed by not letting alexina valmy die in the 1st crucial hours after the politician fell sick russia contributed by opening its airspace to a team of german doctors letting them visit russia contributed by eventually putting him on a german rescue plane allowing the value to be airlifted to berlin and by offering its medical data to german colleagues so now russia says the ball is in germanys court moscow current aid the investigation if its kept in the dark on emerging evidence to the press with enough when it all all this is taking place against the backdrop of facts that our proposals to berlin to jointly sort out what happened ive been dismissed and a far fetched pretext thats hurdles are brought into the race because berlin starts playing a game of all take and no give russia can get the results of the expertise made in german labs since it will reveal too much of the german armys capabilities too much but only to russias eyes apparently because berlin had no problem with sharing its data with almost 200 other nations Member States of the or b c w we are very negatively the fact that germany refusing to assist the russian Law Enforcement agencies secretly transferred no boundaries test data to its trusted partners it is clear that this was done with a political purpose. So that france and sweden would automatically confirm unfounded accusations against russia but wait russia is a member state of the o. P. C. W. And that means it finally has all the time in the world to scrupulously study everything the germany could find right wrong the only thing that it actually means is that russia can hop on the merry go round of rejections because berlin tells moscow it can get everything from the o. P. C. W and the o p c w saying the exact opposite bumping russia right back to berlin russia is in a loop which doesnt really help o. P. C. W. s reputation with moscow as russia had previously accused the un bag watchdog of becoming politicized by your p. C. Dont you like so Many International concessions its always great to be subject to political pressure and thats critically from of course those the funded largely funded thats largely the western powers weve seen with the p. C. To abuse role in investigating alleged Chemical Attacks in syria but its investigations have tended to ascribe blame have been riddled with inconsistences and problems that will not rise in independent investigation but that there appears to be scope for political interference and pressure to take close we saw a similar situation in respect to the case where. It was very reluctant to share its information with russia in respect of it what do you have to discover in terms of chemical analysis and so on giving no access to evidence keeping waters murky playing every bureaucratic trick in the book this is how the e. U. Is shutting out russias investigators also raising the sanctions guillotine over the country almost like it wants to know investigation from russia but an immigration admission of guilt. Well in the latest post on the valleys Instagram Account a video shows his team searching his hotel room in tomsk shortly after news broke that hed fall and severely ill wearing surgical gloves they collect evidence in plastic bags which according to the post were passed on to the German Authorities one of the water was they submitted it was said to contain traces of novice truck one of the cocreators of that very nerve agent learned the rink claims if it was used in a valley would never have even made it to the plane he was traveling on. It would be found he wouldnt have been able to leave the hotel if it was normal jock and he really touched it or drank something 1st of all even in small or not very toxic doses provokes pupil contraction in such a way a person would be almost blind so could barely move so even with only very mild exposure he wouldnt have been able to get on a plane there are photos of him in the hotel in the plane in the russian hospital and yet we cant see any of the symptoms poisoning and novacek a not worse to use for this case. Richard that they definitely would get something they had just simple surgical gloves and thats it and also imagine a bottle that has traces of the substance on the outside it would be a very smart person who would try to fill a bottle with such a dangerous liquid and spill it all down the sides creating a dangerous situation for everyone. Russias demanding immediate answers from washington after an n. B. C. News report claimed america is providing weapons to ukrainian militants in crimea. Unnamed u. S. Official speak about their countrys support of terrorist activities in 3rd countries in this case these talks specifically about russia if that is true we demand that the u. S. Side clarify as to whether or not washington has directly or indirectly facilitated the is be you Ukrainian Security services in organizing terrorist attacks against the people of crimea the n. B. C. Report itself is actually about a completely different case about allegations that the russians secretly bribed or paid bounties to taliban fighters which killed u. S. Troops in afghanistan moscow has firmly denied that anything like it is possible so the n. B. C. Report cites a number of u. S. Military officials and sources as well some of them are saying that there is no solid proof of that others are confident about the theory and this brings us to the part that really caught the attention of russian officials because down at the bottom of the read one of these sources is mentioning u. S. Military aid for ukrainian fighters in crimea none the less current and former u. S. Officials have said many cia officers and analysts came to believe a Bounty Program existed they concluded that the russians viewed it as a proportional response to the u. S. Arming of ukrainian units fighting Russian Forces in crimea the source. Of these allegations are still quite murky still try to piece piece of the puzzle together here but we do know the u. S. Has been supporting Ukrainian Military quite openly over the wall tell you what ever since the conflict in southeast ukraine broke out ukraine has been heavily reliant on u. S. Military aid and ill tell you what the latest batch of that equipment thats part of the u. S. Support which is worth 60000000. 00 u. S. Dollars and the one that included javelin antitank missiles was sent in june but this. It was just the latest in a serious of shipments and these shipments were also preceded by non lethal military aid all of this intended for the Ukrainian Forces that are fighting pro Russian Forces in east ukraine the pro forces in that donbass region they comprise of proper ukrainian troops which is the army and also nationalist battalions but when it comes to climbing there is no military activity there the whole principle is under control of the russian army however infiltrators with the ukrainian past boards have previously been caught there by Russian Security forces for planning terrorist attacks so in this case u. S. Support for ukraine to fight the russians in crimea thats a completely different story and thats a real cause for concern in moscow so what about these allegations that russia actually offered bounties to taliban fighters or killed american troops in afghanistan while then going back to these claims about some kind of bribes by some kind of russian secret agents for taliban fighters they 1st surfaced in the New York Times back in june but even the n. B. C. Article that i began with starts with the words of the head of the u. S. Central command who says that he doesnt have any solid proof to back this up for now and if we talk about the russian officials again they were firmly confident that this kid an be the case that all previously the Russian Foreign ministry surrogate said that russia would never stoop so low as to engage in such dirty tactics. We were accused of relations with the taliban if inducing them to carry out special operations against american troops or financial rewards. For its own interests and belief. I think its beneath the dignity to suspect that russia could be behind such things by the way the pentagon had to deny these allegations because there was nothing to back them up and the taliban also said it was completely false. A small group of wealthy nations already secured over half the invision to future supply of covert 19 vaccines thats according to a report by the Oxfam Charity it means only 13 percent of the worlds population will initially have access to the sought after drug market also in the head of inequality policy division says this is a consequence of pharmaceutical Companies Seeking to maximize profits its extremely dangerous for the world because rich nations monopolizing the supply of potential. But more importantly theyre doing deals with big pharmaceutical corporations which are defending their intellectual property and their profit meaning that the supply of vaccine being artificially limited. There wont be enough vaccines to go around to meet Global Demand the 5 leading vaccine candidates for which nations across the world seal the deal are currently in the final stages of Clinical Trials who are even if all 5 proved to be a success which according to the shower is extremely unlikely around 2 thirds of the worlds population will still have to go without the vaccine until at least 2022 now on top of potential drug shortages oxfam says the vaccine deals lay inequality between prosperous and developing countries for example the u. K. s managed to secure as many as 5 doses per person for the vaccine depending of course how trials go bangladesh you can see a stark contrast here only one vaccine per 9 people actually loss and loss and again the prolong with an availability of the vaccine in some countries will result in many unnecessary deaths. Companies like medan are in the us are only sending them back to very rich countries they said again or bury high price somewhere between 16. 00 a dose and you have to have 2 doses so thats like 70 dollars per person so they are very clear that they theyre doing things to make a profit and they want to make money from this vaccine what were saying is we need a peoples backs not a profit vaccine and we need to see. The breaking down of the patent barriers and we need to see open sharing your banks in technology to maximize the supply of safe and effective vaccines all over the world as soon as possible the huge economic and human cost of the delay in the variability of the vaccine if you think countries like india or south africa or brazil if these countries are not getting access to safe saying until 2022 then they would have more lockdowns their economies would be huge trouble many many people would die who do not need to because the vaccine has been artificially russian and for the profits of pharmaceutical corporations. Israel and that a 2nd National Lockdown on friday last for at least 3 weeks the anti covert measures come into force just hours before the start of the jewish new year thats made the decision deeply unpopular with an already we are republic hundreds of against the new locked out in central tel aviv on thursday night it will help lock arms claiming covert had been blown out of all proportion shortly before the looked on r. T. As fall asleep report from tel aviv. Israel is bracing for an unprecedented 2nd nationwide covered 19 and a lockdown that will see the next 3 weeks with strict restrictions being imposed now this. Is a particularly joyous time usually of the year you have the jewish new year washington now on friday night you then have your kid poor which is the most holy day of the jewish calendar and you should be thousands upon thousands of people will be in some regard this time that wont happen so a lot of disappointment here amongst the population among the other measures being implemented are no more than 10 people indoors remaining within 500 meters of ones home businesses cannot accept customers and schools and Shopping Centers are to be closed this follows a steady rise in the number of covered positive cases wednesday saw an unprecedented 6000 new cases being reported in one day the israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu says that these moves are necessary and follow an indepth conversation that he held with the countrys health minister. In the last 2 days we have witnessed another lawman in greece and deaths and the continued increase in the number of critically ill patients as many of the experts have recommended we may have no choice but to tighten the guidelines now there has been a mixed reaction to the new lockdown on thursday night protesters gathered here in tel aviv to demonstrate against the new measures we caught up with ordinary citizens to ask them what they feel its very frustrating its killing the economy many people feel like there is no hope and they dont know what is going on theyre basically going crazy we cant work we cant go out we can do whatever we used to do its probably a good thing because cases are rising that the roof so thats what were going to do but i dont think its going to expect that instructions will go down but that the right back up as soon as the closure earnings honestly doesnt affect me at all i dont understand why its much of a closure i understand schools some of the stores are closed. But where i live 500 meters i go anywhere i do anything i want people i still say dont wear a mask i really dont know how this is going to help it now israel is not the 1st country that during the 1st wave witnessed a decline and is now experiencing a spike in cases the u. K. And france are in similar situations and so we can cautiously save no country is from the 2nd wave the lockdown were going to place at 2 oclock local time this afternoon people out on the streets right now last minute shopping a lot of activity ahead of the curfew its also questionable when they gave ill be able to report from the studio as this new doctor comes into place. But a russian Opposition Leader has called on the world to stand up for democracy so a lot of the one oscar was addressing the human rights of the United Nations which was debating the ongoing crisis in butterworth. This edition of the bureaus demands Immediate International attention Peaceful Protesters have been illegally detained beaten and raped some of the protesters have been found dead there also needs fast as a result of the decisions. Its very important to go in there is that extended hour for democratic principles in human rights is not interfering in internal affairs it is a universal question of Human Dignity well this comes a day after the European Parliament said it would no longer recognize an exam because the legitimate president of but of those though thats not discourage his supporters from taking to the streets daily to counter the ongoing opposition protests in the capital minsk while we demonstrations are not much smaller in scale since the disputed election we can continue to see mass rallies by the opposition in more than a month of the protests thousands have been arrested in the. Police have been accused of brutality look at himself recently claims for a lot of the cut off is the 2nd one as well and wide oh appointed by external forces. The next phase has begun intense political financial and diplomatic pressure from outside neighboring countries refusing to recognize the Election Results and just like we saw in venezuela they found a better russian why dont you and declared president. Well im not a christian political analyst thanks for joining us good to have you on the program today took it off because you were dressed so we heard a fragment that comes just a day after european lawmakers decided they no longer recognized as the legitimate president of belarus what can we read into that. Well i think the real question is what the European Union intends to do and the answer is i think very whistle despite the americans using this actually i i believe as a weevil i gainst germany for its own interests the truth is that germany the dominant country in the e. U. Has got deep Energy Interests in intending links of belarus and i dont think when push comes to shove is prepared to take the sorts of action she was calling to bring down. Schenkel so while there is much rhetori
