To International Coming to you live from the russian capital where its just turned 4 welcome to the program. Russian Opposition Leader of the of not only has been discharged from the hospital in berlin where he was being treated following an alleged poisoning doctors say they hope he will make a full recovery but the details heres peter all for. Alexina familys conversation is much improved in fact weve seen pictures from his Instagram Account and what cheese open about out of the hospital and in a park here in the german capital it says attached to the picture that hell be working with physiotherapists as he recovers from his stay in hospital we had seen videos previously of him walking about inside the hospital but on wednesday morning a statement was put out by a shot at the medical facility was being trotted out here in berlin saying that he was ready and able to be discharged the patient state of health has improved to such extend that acute medical treatment can be ended lexan him and he was treated as charity for eternal 32 days 24 days to which he was in intensive care unit physicians considered full recovery possible based in treatment and his current condition and you long term consequences of the severe poisoning can only be assessed later or an article in the french newspaper le monde is causing some for rory in it the newspaper claims that russian president Vladimir Putin in a phone call with his french counterpart emmanuel micron had claimed that alexina valmy poisoned himself the article also goes on to make claims that there may have been some connection with the alleged poisoning and one of the former creators of the or one of the creators of the novacek program who currently lives in latvia now weve heard from the kremlin spokesperson to meet the press corps who says theres no truth behind this article even if you didnt so she mutates not the wording is where in the exact the newspaper could not have been does not have credible information we cannot believe that that would consciously leave the recording of the 2 president s conversation to the media i mean thats rance france cannot do Something Like that refused to believe that it might well as far as the investigations i say investigations there are multiple going on into what happened to alexina valmy weve had confirmation from the minute. Of justice here in berlin that they are currently reviewing the 2nd request from the russian Prosecutor Generals Office full information regarding those tests that were carried out on alexina valley weve heard previously from the russian side saying they cant launch a full investigation into an alleged poisoning until they have proof of a poisoning and so far only berlin has the proof which it shared with our trees in france and in sweden as well as the o. P. C. W. The organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons in the aig now weve also had confirmation from the Foreign Ministry here in berlin saying that the o. P. C. W. Still havent give them any results were still waiting on not i think we can expect that coming in the next few weeks. Were now going to bring in live John Dombrowski and the chief executive at the Washington Pain Center for more on this so as we just heard alex in the money has left the hospital and from the information youve seen do you expect him to make a full recovery yes i do i mean ive been very lucky to be with you several times on this event and i said that most likely he will recover and so its kind of bearing that out i mean hes doing remarkably well and i am very cautiously optimistic that the illegals will recover as we all know germany along with labs and sweden and friends say that not only was poisoned with a nerve agent from the no we choke a group is it surprising that hes managed to survive after being exposed to what is a deadly nerve agent like that sure i mean i think there are 2 possibilities number one is how much of the nerve agent did he receive and to how quickly was he attended to so apparently was a very small amount that was known lethal and he got a quicker medical attention which also improves his ability of recovery at the same time russian doctors and even the creators of know which have question whether it really was that poison is it possible that some other substance could have caused the symptoms that nevaeh he suffered from. Well i mean these are all nerve agents and theyre all theyre basically anesthetic agents that are used there are all sorts of nerve agents out there sarin and all that type of ringback stuff however you know im sure there are certain biomarkers that would be highly suggestive of the nerve agent that theres. So we have the news now that he has been discharged from the hospital but does he have quite an uphill battle Going Forward well im sure there might be an uphill battle im sure of that but clearly hes getting into a part used during some pretty high cognitive functions so i think his recovery you know is is quite honest just from what i can tell if we compare this to the sounds very case in 2018 which of course many many people are several people fell sick and one actually died after exposure but weve seen nothing similar to lead to that in times square in a volley was allegedly poisoned before he got on that plane why do you think that is again i have to go back you know to the specific purpose that goes how it was administered or whatever the case might be but also getting it medical attention most likely that was the reason why you survived. And also as all these supporters released a video showing them in his hotel room in tomsk just after the alleged poisoning and they were collecting his belongings putting them in plastic bags and that was where that water bottle was found that they then sent on to germany where it said that thats where the now the check was found they were wearing protective suits they were just wearing gloves how much does that even out that they werent affected by the never check. Well most likely the way that what they were thinking about the got just over shot by ingesting it by the bottle of water so its inside a contained bottle so probably thats reason why they did not you know you know suffer any ailments so i think its reasonable i mean nerve agents usually are gas but obviously there are other ways of ministry theres this poison. Of course we all know that 1st of all he was in siberia and then he was airlifted over to germany do you think that that had any influence on his recovery would he have recovered just as easily probably here in russia i dont really know the medical system there so i cant speak to that you know be due to a lot of Supportive Care meaning a respirator ventilator medically induced coma for his body to recover and they could have done that in russia or security thats fine but well never know you would lose flown to berlin for that care. Definitely encouraging news coming out of berlin today its on the brodsky m. D. T. Executive at the Washington Pain Center the care time and joining us on the program thank you so much. Alexander lukashenko has been inaugurated for a 6th term as president of belarus a month earlier than expected event went ahead without an advance public announcement and after more than 7 weeks of unrest following his disputed reelection and the ceremony took place at the independence palace in minsk i took the oath with his hand on the constitution and i see him thats become familiar to belorussians and he 1st took office 26 years ago he gave a speech thanking us supporters for preventing a socalled Color Revolution meaning an uprising against the government are facing our correspondent run reports from belarus. It was a complete surprise to everybody in belarus the 1st boarding that something was up was convoys of police blocking off road streets driving to and fro around the city then the president ial call believe we see it in full parade formation driving for driving for it official residence by the time the fact that the dog ration was taking place became Public Knowledge president look at shaker had been sworn in so hes seeking. To speech in which he belorussians with their support for their faith even said he would do Everything Possible to make sure that they would disappointed by his presidency he said that but by backing him they had passed a test given jurors of their belief said that they had voted for peace and protected the independence and freedom of belarus their year. Dear fellow by the russians on this solemn day the president swears and moved to this state and the people with special feeling with a lot of pride for both the russians who have passed with the honor the test of strength in their beliefs the inauguration is the day of victory convince an insignificant we didnt just elect the president of the country we defended our values our peace our sovereignty and our independence and.

Obviously not everyone is happy with the this inauguration with the way it was carried out and especially with president being sworn in for a 6th already protests erupting around means small scale but by 6 oclock the opposition has called for the mass rallies for everybody whos against present to shake it to come out and to voice their their their disbelief of what is happening and to voice that anger at present being sworn in for a seat weve seen of course for a month now very strong protests especially during the weekend all over belarus hundreds of thousands of people as many as tens of thousands this weekend especially people coming out and saying you know weve had enough johnson for him to leave chanting for new elections and that is what the Opposition Coordination CouncilOpposition Council has been has been formed to do to guarantee new elections there would varying times theyve stated different goals up to this deposing of president. Europe has come out stronger and stronger support of the opposition but weve heard the foreign minister of the European Union say that what europe is doing supporting the opposition would be construed as meddling because theyre doing the right thing and theyve welcome svetlana tikkun off a rival of president during the election who has since left for europe fled to europe theyve theyve welcome to as a highly placed official and theyve backed her and called for fresh elections obviously weve. Had to expect a much more reaction already the foreign minister of lithuania has come out who has called the inauguration and present.

Report has found that the u. S. Embassy and afghanistan as well as nato headquarters there have been dumping rall sewage into the river kabul which runs through the capital and much of the country residents are outraged with Living Conditions for those living downstream badly affected for years. Why is the u. S. Embassy leaving its sewage in this river it all comes to us we cannot sleep at night because of the smell. We have a big problem with the river and the United States embassy and they dump their sewage in the river every afternoon. In the uk. Since the Wastewater Treatment plant is not functioning and its canals are damaged the sewage from the dumping site goes directly into the kabul river. We Want Companies that can easily build Treatment Plants and we want them to build the plants and deal with the waste properly.
