Broadcasting live from our studios in moscow this is our chief International Im sean thomas certainly glad to have you with us. Right now the Russian Foreign minister Sergey Lavrov has said moscow has nothing to hide in the case and follows a conclusion by germany that the russian opposition figurehead was poisoned with chemical nerve agent. We have already commented on this and said we have nothing to hide a soon as alex in the valley fell ill the plane was grounded and necessary measures roomie julie taken this soon as he was transported to germany those who were demanding information from russia went silent and did not demand anything from berlin this is all following the same old scenario we hear public accusations against russia and the official requests to berlin from a Prosecutors Office have so far going on onstott we were promised today that we would soon receive response as soon as we get the facts we will react accordingly this is all reminiscent of what happened with the script poles. Meanwhile donald trump has said the white house is still in the dark as well as germany is yet to send any details to washington so i dont know exactly what happened i think its its tragic its terrible it shouldnt happen we havent had any proof yet but i will take a look alexina vali is currently in a medically induced coma and on a ventilator in a berlin hospital more than a fortnight after being airlifted from russia the kremlin has said it needs more facts on the case from berlin while nato has called for an International Response as our europe correspondent peter all over reports. Well we heard from yen stoltenberg the nato secretary general on friday morning he said that hed been presented with the alliance of being presented with proof beyond down that alexei novelli had been poisoned using a novacek military grade with agent he said that they would have to be a International Reaction to this however he wouldnt elaborate on what that would be its a use of chemical of but its so use of overunity chemical nerve agent which is violating the brew bishan over any use over chemical weapons and the matters for nato we strongly believe that this is a blatant violation of International Law so it requires an International Response. But i will not known speculate about exactly what kind of International Response theres been a lot of talk not only from germany but around the world about transparency coming from the russian side but on friday the German Government confirmed that they have received a request from the russian prosecutors general Prosecutor Generals Office for the sharing of test data from Alexei Navalny tests that were carried out on him for that medical data to be shared with doctors and investigate is in russia now reading between the lines from the statement it might not be as simple a procedure as that makes it sound if the bonus m. T. S. Teeth and the Justice Ministry in the Foreign Ministry of germany usually consider each case on its own merit to see if there are any obstacles to the agreement while russian doctors have asked for this information to be shared with them as part of the investigation because when they carried out tests on election the volley was tried of course 1st in russia or in the city of. They found no trace of toxins and in fact they say that poisoning was the 1st thing they looked for and found no traces and that they need these results from the german tests in order to proceed with their investing. Patient weve also heard from the kremlin Spokes Person to me to the press corps of who said that its the russian doctors have been far more forthcoming when it came to sharing information than their german counterparts he also said that statements and acetate should be limited to the facts that are provided this fact to investigative measures are being carried out and if the information about the presence of a poisonous substance from the patients biological samples is confirmed then of course we will open a day jury investigation of the German Federal president. Has been speaking as well he said. The case has the potential to cause problems in the relationship between lin and moscow but if we look at the foreign minister of austria alexandre schellenberg he said that it would be impossible for the e. U. To put in place sanctions on russia over this before there was any proof before there was any investigation being carried out he was also asked questions about the nord stream to gas pipeline which the Austrian Foreign minister said it shouldnt be put in any risk that that should be completed and that the nikkei shouldnt have an impact on that Business Enterprise or meanwhile many media organizations are trying to dig deeper into what happened to the russian opposition figure plenty of theories are being floated and they all seem to have a common theme as r. T. Is what ive got them comments. 48 hours since germany declared the valley poisoned with military grade talks in a humorous crime she said that must be dealt with will turn it on i condemn this in the strongest possible terms on behalf of the entire German Government. There is serious questions now that only the russian government can answer and must answer note that she didnt accuse russia of anything but within 24 hours everyone with a keyboard had somehow become an investigative journalist slash toxicologist slash Foreign Policy expert take build for example a german tabloid that specializes in yellow journalism and bashing russia build out did everyone they managed to mistranslate a russian official make up a Conspiracy Theory that russia was blaming germany for poor isnt in the volley and based on everything that they got wrong they demanded sanctions and then to the divisive german russian nord stream to pipeline there are very strong anti russia in the west which typically specifically wants to sabotage the gas pipeline to prevail in iraq or between russia and the e. U. A particularly Close Association russia and germany there isnt a change of course america wants to sell its natural gas to europe instead of the russians so theres a lot of money going on a lot of money is what at stake spiegel another german magazine has proposed tearing up german russian relations big student well apparently they have irrefutable proof that putin was behind this insane poisoning they wont show it though to their readers so well just have to trust them now is the time so the man in the kremlin the german or thora jesus showing the alexina found he was not drunk or diabetic as the. Rayman cynical spin doctors wanted the world to believe he was supposed to be killed with an insidious neurotoxins cynical spin doctors insidious neuro doc said and obviously aggravated by us. Are going to force for us compounds are highly toxic substances and as a rule its impossible to use them just to poison a Single Person if there had been any interaction with the substance on the eve of the flight or during the flight then any accompanying persons were certain to have shown symptoms of poisoning that did not happen passions are high a lot of confusion about this is the best time to take advantage of people if youre a build pundit and you have no idea how a neuro talks and works or what happened to the volley and you still want clicks well now is the time to write righteous and warlike articles to try him appear knowledgeable while the you know the professionals and the experts a busy and quiet trying to figure out whats happened there is another version that you might like one popular theory is that the kremlin spooked by the protests in 2 west embarrass and to the east inhabitants wanted mr nirvana out of the way to prevent him from mobilizing discontent closer to mr putin and upsetting his plans for parliamentary elections next year after years of not winning elections after years of stagnant support somehow now novelli has become a danger i was in the kremlin spooked after the revolution in ukraine why didnt they try to remove him then and it doesnt explain use it in new york which is the Nuclear Option even in the world of nerve agents sending the volleys to germany where he could get tested for a new truck and russia would get sanction to jump to the conclusion that there is one obvious to what happened to divine it its. Very simplistic because if you look at the the balance of advantage say you know who takes an advantage out of whats happened i think its a huge liability for the kremlin and for russia to be seen to have launched an attack on one of the most colorful and influential members of the opposition that it reinforces as weve seen a very negative image of russia in the past i think relations between the west and specifically europe and russia were starting to warm up now all those things are suddenly at risk because of whats happened and because of the way its interpreted which is why i think maybe its much more complicated why would the kremlin do this at this point but you know many fantastic versions going the route you can pick whichever suits you best put is reluctance to say the word never in their cloud has led to comparisons to lord voldemort the villain in the harry potter sirius whom other characters do not name the guy that has also been banned for appearances on state television and is mentioned there only rarely and in that it have late so putins apparent reluctance to talk about a fellow who isnt a politician one of the legs of the anything is somehow in direct proof that putin wanted him dead. Hell i dont remember putin ever talking about me could putin really want me dead as well the way the volley being banned and state television is a lie he refuses to appear and state television has even declined appearing in r. T. When we asked him weve got out and video we have Video Evidence of the Guardian Live at the end of the day whats the point there is a giant educate that these people existed its full of profit oriented journalism intended to surprise and to upset and they will say anything to lose you into clicking on an ad filled article they feed on your attention. Russian scientists are producing the countrys 1st corona virus vaccine say that they are ready to start 3rd phase Clinical Trials and after an International Medical journal concluded that the drug name displayed nick v. Produced an antibody response in 100 percent of participants during early stage trials with no major side effects but hes asking taylor looks into the recent successes of sputnik. At the start of trench 28 good news it was hard to come by but as we move that autumn it seems that find us all in pleasanter to report on as many will now about russia practices the what fast track to greater virus but. The results are now on friday it was announced back in notice that nicotine has indeed a strong immune response i am to point out that in 100 some of those images a page in trials now this comes just after 8 leaving that just about one of the oldest one of the most respected in the law on set. With its assessment of the findings of the trials because it is a part of the Clinical Trial results of the sputnik the vaccine published in lancet the worlds leading medical journal shows that russia is leading the way in developing a corona virus vaccine and it answers a lot of questions from western critics specifically the journal report concluded that there were no serious adverse consequences among volunteers that took the vaccine and there was a very strong in time moon response due to the development of antibodies it found that a vaccinated person produces 1. 00 times more empty bodies than an average person infected with corona virus so no serious side to the desired antibodies and of course a good safety profile its also worth noting that the head of the musket clinic which developed independently said he thought that those heightened place would actually protect individuals for at least 2 yes so that announcement from the direct Investment Fund there was this article in an answer really bulls direct the arguments for next affected nest not this news one touted. By those who decided to take the plunge to leave the fund got to get themselves in it and we today if you think the minister of defense against psych who the leader of the liberal Democrat Party who by the way actually appeared on a t. V. Show makes wrong in the day that the last i met. So now were now told president putin about this Via Video Conference he said you know what im feeling fine only thing i will say i did have a slight headache for a few hours so these latest announcement some doubt reassuring but also maybe a way to counter the one of the better word those suspicions psychical initiate he said that maybe russia has this process in order to declare itself winner of the race for so what now well in our sights and if not what actually basis for russian citizens will start in mid september. That process could be done within 7 to 12 months in fact. The. 3 clinics he told muscovites office you were in a hot spot have been given a bit of a head start thinking already so why are some saturday so doses possible mistakes people at home but that there will be read out and it seems there is demand from. Parenting more than 24. 00 governments have already received hundreds of millions of doses so in a. While after the Peer Reviewed study was published in the us secretary of state expressed skepticism by pompei accused russia and china of hurrying the very vaccines to market for political reasons we discussed in the russian vaccine and the findings in the lancet journal with Lawrence Young a professor of molecular oncology in the u. K. I think its a very important step on the way to developing an effective vaccine its a very interesting study like many vaccine studies its still relatively early days but it does demonstrate that the vaccine is safe and it doesnt juice a very good immune response this study published along see it highlights some very Important Developments particularly in the ability to what we call crime boosts the response to give 2 doses of slightly different vaccines that give you an even better response and that is something that this article reports on which i think is a very Important Development but again we have to be slightly cautious because its relatively small numbers and we look forward obviously to seeing more data particularly as this dark scene goes into phase 3 where i understand there are going to be Something Like 40000. 00 volunteers vaccinated but were working together as an International Group of immunologists and biologists to fight this vaccine and this is a very important step in that part of.
