4:00 pm
people expect us they want the questions on such. matters will be way sometimes but we will continue to. 0. hello there i'm starting at 10 this is the news hour live from our headquarters here and coming up in the next 60 minutes. we both think that it is responsible at this point in time to go the extra mile you a new kaley to say breck's a trade talks will continue as negotiators make some progress and narrowing differences. the u.s. prepares to store and ship covert 19 vaccines across the country as it registers
4:01 pm
yet another record death toll. fears over missing students after gunmen attacked a school in northern nigeria. on tony burke enough meichi central both the scene of one of the worst atrocities in the war where more than 100 muslim men women and children were killed. with sports as anthony joshua retains his world heavyweight titles by knocking out challenger crew grep. british and e.u. leaders have agreed to keep trade talks going as negotiators failed again to break an impasse both sides met again on sunday in what was supposed to be the final day of negotiations while the head of the e.u. commission and alliance says there are still unsolved topics that deserve to be discussed at length. despite the exhaustion after almost one geo of
4:02 pm
negotiations and despite the fact that deadlines have been missed over and over we both think that it is responsible at this point in time to go the extra mile. we have accordingly mandated our negotiators to continue talks and to see where the new reach an agreement can be reached even at this late stage well so far they have been several sticking points but the main ones include access to british waters by fishing fleets and the so-called level playing field now if the 2 sides don't reach an agreement border checks and taxes will be introduced for goods traveling between the u.k. and the e.u. from january to fast for we have barbara sarah standing by for us in westminster will speak to have very shortly but 1st let's go to paul brennan he's outside the european commission in brussels for us obviously december 31st just around the corner where 2 for. more negotiations
4:03 pm
essentially. to a certain extent it's not surprising that they've decided to continue by one count that i've seen this is the 10th final final final deadline that has been passed with no conclusive outcome. speculation was mounting last night that the decision would be made that while the possibility was that there could be some kind of compromise possible that they will continue talking remember the only really legal deadline is the 31st of december when the transit or the 11 pm brussels u.k. time on the 31st of december when the transition period ends what they have on the didn't say was what the main sticking points are and whether they've managed to make any progress on issues such as the level playing field fair competition between britain which would be out. side of the european union and having access to
4:04 pm
the european union supermarket she also did not mention whether there will be a new deadline and no date was set no new deadline mentioned so the idea now is presumably open ended talks until they can reach some kind of discussion or agreement or realize that they simply can't reach agreement and declare that the no deal is the only option we do run into some timetabling issues because obviously the deal if it can be agreed needs to be ratified and that creates issues with the british parliament timetable and with the european parliament timetable so you know there's some legislative issues here but they clearly prepared to go as far as they possibly can without wanting to give up because everybody agrees no deal would be a very serious situation of an in there with all the latest for us from brussels thanks so much for british prime minister barak just a very short time ago this is some of what he had to say we are always happy to
4:05 pm
talk make progress where we can i do think as i say there is a deal to be done if our partners want to do that but we remain very far apart on these key issues and you know they are u.k. copy looks into the e.u.'s regular treat a bit we've obviously got to take back control of our fisheries full of years after people voted for it once again time now to speak to barbara sarah she is in london outside westminster barbara hearing from the prime minister there saying they're still really far apart so is there a sense that everyone's still preparing for an idea back says. well absolutely there is and also boris johnson said more along those lines he said it's most likely the most likely thing is that we have to get and get ready for an australia no deal terms and we must get ready with confidence for
4:06 pm
a no deal we're ready for january the 1st there is clarity and simplicity with a no deal we are prepared so the prime minister on the one hand saying that talks will continue with the european union but also very much repeating the kind of tone that he's had for the past couple of days now that no deal is a very realistic option and that the country is ready for snow overnight we. had the announcement of some contingency plans by the government saying that the government is ready to spend around $5000000000.00 to avoid as much disruption as possible on january the 1st some of that money going to extra border officers to make sure that the flow of goods isn't disrupted as much as it could be telephone helplines a really anything that could make sure that there isn't too much disruption obviously a no trade deal means the imposition of tariffs and further controls at the border
4:07 pm
bear in mind that at the border right now there is a backlog as we speak because of the pandemic and also because of christmas coming up these you know it's been a very difficult and strange time in the u.k. like everywhere else because of the pandemic so i'm not sure that everyone shares boris johnson's confidence that the country is ready supermarkets have been warned that they might have to stockpile. vegetables car manufacturers as well and the reality is that many small businesses are just not sure what they have to prepare for because as we just mentioned we are still in negotiations so yes i guess some optimism that the 2 parties the e.u. and the u.k. are still in talks but certainly here everyone very much preparing for the option of a no deal with. forest and westminster thank you so much barbara. now we can speak to peace except he isn't a policy analyst and he joins us now from brussels he's a great to have you back on al-jazeera there's been so many missteps lions and
4:08 pm
obviously today yet another one is there a sense of optimism the toll living for. oh absolutely if you look at journalists covering this here in brussels who are in touch with the poor months so i think important rumor is that the e.u. would have made a major concession that the european union would have basically admitted that it is no longer of seeking a so-called wretched process which would mean that britain would have to follow you regulations if a certain number of conditions were fulfilled instead of the e.u. wants to agree a mechanism to try to keep the u.k. from unfairly undercutting its own standards as the e.u. puts it of course i would put it. exploiting the benefits of brics it now both sides are still negotiating the details of precise mechanism
4:09 pm
at the moment as we speak i do want to ask you because it feels like the 2 sides also at times really struggle to understand each other so despite the at this very specific sticking points is there a broader ideological impost here that's going on. well yeah definitely but also there are some progress has been made the e.u. very much now understands for britain it's coming from it in the stands and britain wants to exploit its sovereignty the ability to have divergent regulations because apart from the ability to set its own trade policy briggs it provides the united kingdom to come up with its own version of g.d.p. or for example or chemical regulations in 'd the future or what nots and of course then there will always be an implication for the degree of market access so it's in the very good i think for both sites that a proper mechanism is agreed to make sure that no accidents happen that if the u.k. wants to divert that businesses will not be punished unfairly and they
4:10 pm
will cleese no well in advance that the market access would be restricted he speak of this sense of optimism is there also a sense that perhaps the brits are using the threat of a new deal bracks and which would also hit e.u. manufacturers very hot as a negotiation tool that it's a tactic rather than a real possibility. well i think it's a tactic but it's just as much a tactic from the e.u. so you published its no deal preparatory details this week. so i mean but at the end of the day if you think this is true the damage of a new deal would be sobek also quite unpredictable and apart from the economic damage for both the u.k. and you cite there would be quite considerable diplomatic damage so i think we have to avoid a no deal and there is still time until the end of the months i must say that even
4:11 pm
if you have a deal at the end of the month it will be very hard to implement this in a clean way so you have to sort of been the rule of law a little bit which is absolutely not ideal but it's probably better to face the damage no deal well you say clean way i mean i know as as bob was saying in westminster that there is great concern that this could get very messy it's all happening in the middle of a pandemic to now deal or no deal essentially that's going to be a change in trade rules at the borders come december 31st right so there's going to be presumably some level of chaos an adjustment required forgot us. well i'm for it so to be honest because even if you have a deal which means you don't have to are if you don't have customs but you still have extra customs procedures that will come into force and it's been documented that not all companies are appropriate prepared for that also as it will not be entirely clear to what degree both sides will actually enforce it which in new ways
4:12 pm
a good thing both sides have said look we will be flexible in forcing this we will for example the u.k. will not hold off trucks full of food for the u.k. because they don't have the right paperwork we have seen a transitional period of 6 months being flow that for certain sectors so indeed even if you have a deal there will be quite quite a bit of extra brooke recy and uncertainty but it's not the case that there is almost no difference between deal and no deal the advisor to michel barnier use. bricks that negotiator house stressed that there is a very big difference especially for sector is like automotive between deal and no deal and i think this was also quite an optimistic remark it means that in the deal it is for seen that manufacturing in britain think cough airbursts think of b.m.w. that they will actually enjoy quite a bit of market access to the e.u.
4:13 pm
market that the e.u. will be willing to quite a considerable degree to declare british regulations equivalent so so this is all quite optimistic and i think it strengthens the case how important it is to get to a deal. we'll continue watching those talks. then e.u. policy and speaking to us from brussels great to get your thoughts again on out there thanks for being with us thank you. oh there's plenty more ahead for you this news hour including dramatic pledges as well leaders mark the 5th anniversary of the paris climate accord but will they be enough to prevent catastrophe venezuela's opposition holds a symbolic vote is asking people if they want president nicolas maduro alice. and robert lewandowski saves appointed by munich as the german champions come under pressure in the league that's all coming up with charlie expert.
4:14 pm
prove it in 1000 vaccine start to receive emergency approvals the race is on to distribute them now 3 western candidates are getting much of the attention those made by madonna and astra zeneca are reported to be very close to approval and a vaccine developed by us from pfizer and germany is biotech has already been okayed by some countries the 1st patients got jobs in the u.k. on choose day and vaccinations are now starting to be distributed in the u.s. russia began administering its sputnik vaccine several weeks ago now but many governments are wary is very little data on us 3 chinese vaccines are also reported to have received approvals one of them is already being used in the u.a.e. but it's uncertain just how widely these are being distributed elsewhere a millions of doses have already been ordered by governments around the wilds but it's not clear who will get them fast and when or if poor hard hit countries can
4:15 pm
even get the surprise that they need well let's take you to some live pictures now these are images here of the fast doses of pfizer's coronavirus vaccine being loaded on to trucks in the united states right now pfizer is using their special containers with dry ice and g.p.s. enabled senses that each shipment remains at minus 70 celsius john hendren has more for us from washington d.c. . in the nation most devastated by the global pandemic the 1st doses of the 1st approved vaccine or on the move within the next 24 hours they will begin moving in fact seen from the pfizer manufacturing facility to the u.p.s. and fed ex hopes and then it will go out to the $636.00 locations nationwide the 1st $145.00 sites in the u.s. are expected to receive the vaccine on monday with the rest receiving it by wednesday now front line responders like dr ben you sachin colorado will be among
4:16 pm
the 1st to be vaccinated against cove of 19 i am going to be one of the tips of the spear when the 1st people to step in to help generate is herd immunity which is sold toward the us to get a grip on this terrible disease those 1st vaccinations will happen just days after the u.s. food and drug administration approved it on friday science and data guided the f.d.a. decision we worked quickly based on the urgency of this pandemic not because of any other x. turn of pressure that external pressure came from president trump who on friday tweeted to han to quote get the damn vaccines out now. the vaccine has shown to be 95 percent effective in preventing covert 1900 missions but it must be stored it all true cold temperatures the road to immunity across the u.s. is likely to be paved with pain and tragedy the head of the u.s.
4:17 pm
centers for disease control says over the next 60 to 90 days some 3000 americans that's more than were killed in the 911 attacks will die each day of covert 19 and then there are the conspiracy theorists and skeptics who say they will refuse to take it i think sometimes. and. i don't think i've even full with it because i don't know one soul. that has this know a lot of people that represents just one of the logistical conundrums for president elect joe biden he has set a goal of inoculating 100000000 americans within 100 days of his inauguration on january 20th john hendren al-jazeera washington. and he explains some of the global distribution challenges. if we look on to the vaccine efficacy of course the president we're going to they are close to 995
4:18 pm
percent which is certainly beyond our expectation but when we go on to the next generation of vaccines for example talking about this final form in the u.s. that has 92 percent up to casey that's what they they proposed at least sputnik 5 is almost at the same level astra zeneca here to be 70 percent so once the 1st. front runner vaccines will be taken up by most of the wealthy nations we were left out with the vaccine those are probably at least demand in the countries that would be causing another challenge to distribute because even for example if we reach to 50 percent of the population in the developing world for a vaccine that is 50 percent effective basically we are covering only 25 percent of the population which isn't sufficient enough to establish herd immunity it has been a certain level of vaccine it has a chance even before the court 19th and damage but it has intensified because primarily the rumors and the speed of the vaccine development and probably more importantly the trust and this is even more penetrated into the black south asian
4:19 pm
minorities i mean if we talk about the u.k. self i mean in london one of the survey indicated that only 40 percent of the black people will take the vaccine compared to 70 percent in the. english white so that is really a big difference and that that is going to be one of the major challenges how to build trust and that has to be trained really by the government to bring all the stakeholders on board because until we don't really immunize 75 percent of the population we are not achieving the herd immunity and we wouldn't be breaking the transmission chain of this infection. well south korea has reported a 2nd day now of record high corona virus infections more than a 1000 new cases were confirmed on sunday many of them in seoul. south korea was being hailed as a success for stabilizing the virus without having to shut down the economy but infections are now rising shopping and the government has warned it may have to increase restrictions to the highest level under i'm kim is directed general at the
4:20 pm
international vaccine institute he explains from saul why the most vulnerable groups should be prioritized for vaccinations in order to receive had immunity. the thing is that you know the only way around the pandemic is is not through treating our way out but to identifying those groups of people who are the highest priority for vaccination so health care workers the elderly and then setting up of acquired ization of different segments of the population that need to be vaccinated i think the government here has made a commitment to vaccinate 30000000 people at least which is roughly 60 percent of the population in the hopes that that will achieve what we call her protection that the level of immunity in the community will be sufficient to prevent large operates a group in 1000 of them occurring you know whether that's going to happen or not is up it it's a scientific hypothesis it's definitely testable i think the other thing to remember is that right now we only have 2 months worth of data on safety and
4:21 pm
efficacy for these vaccines and so whether it's pfizer or moderna or amalia or ash to zeneca we still don't have all the information that we need to say that at 6 months and 12 months these vaccines will continue to be safe and effective we are hoping that they will be there's every suggestion that they will be but we at this point have to say that we don't actually have all the information. and moving on and they're off is that some students in one cherry asked illness saying after gunmen stormed a secondary school and kidnapped a number of children that they attack as. arrived on most of banks at a boarding school and can carry a district that's a northern katsina state that reports. these are some of the boys relieved to be going home after the school raid in which many of their friends were taken hostage there leaving behind parents anxiously waiting for the return of their missing children. sincerely speaking we here in katsina state are in
4:22 pm
a terrifying condition we don't see the value of the government i have a younger brother and a child taken by the kidnappers i'm from dan jack katsina state and i've been here in the school since dawn and yet there is no update. it's not clear how many children have been abducted from the all boys boarding school nigerian police say they forced the gunman to retreat after engaging them in a shootout for more than one hour but this anger that 6 years up to more than $270.00 girls were kidnapped by the armed group boko haram at chip uk nigerian security forces appear to have once again failed to keep school children safe for rates to be that we have him a jaw tragedy of. hundreds and hundreds of students once again in the country is an indication that we learned no lessons from the previous tragedy there is something called the serious initiative this
4:23 pm
government should ask itself how seriously it has to conduct initiatives abductions have become increasingly common in nigeria just 2 days before the school abduction a village elder along with 20 others was kidnapped in the same state the governor has ordered the immediate closure of all boarding schools while investigations are under way barbara and get out to sarah. well i have a great. political and security analyst at africa that's ok he says katsina state is a long way from back around to usual areas of operations and in the northeast it's very likely that these are bonded not not because like we saw happen in 2 in 2014 that is because the air off oppression here it's. not with ninja particularly cuts announced it and this this disgusting nasm fast it in northwest
4:24 pm
and is known to have serious. attacks from from bandits on courtney to groups that don't really have any any my line intention against the states or trying to impose any policy on the state or institutions understood that we have a book or a criminal element operating freely i would see in northwest and europe so even before i have them kidnapping they also have been reports that be particularly invested in illegal mining also to fund the operation this it will lead to dick to the gov loves off for us it's shutting down all my minds just like you saw what was in the government of course not that i was even close on boarding schools you know in the state following the us news and attacks the issues you we are losing you reactionary. when it comes to protecting life propriety you know in northwest and. pretty much yourself and you and your. well international aid has arrived in the

we were supported by. facts but having said that i would also like to point out. reports that we've so far released preliminary in nature. last month prime minister may denied any civilians had been killed by his forces during the operation. but some analysts suggest thousands of people have died it's hard to confirm what's actually happening the government's restricted access to the region and there's been a communications blackout rights groups are calling for an independent investigation and say while this 1st convoy of international aid to to cry is a step forward it's not enough they warn of an all out humanitarian crisis both in ethiopia and across the border and i hope we don't have any plans for the future everything we worked for is now useless we are just a sleeping on the ground without even a change of clothes life for these people is on hold and they feel scared and far

today's rally which gave a referendum we have not seen more. than 50 maximum 55. so of course they will be thought of claims from the opposition one must not forget that on the other hand the government. there are signs according to some analysts that the economy is also recovering and. trying to pressure and perhaps try. to galvanize. the government more so that corruption charges can be dropped it must not be forgotten . the prime minister heading one of the large parties head in pakistan is an exile . or serving a jail sentence so a war of words between the government and. also the opposition now threatening

shops that remain open and the steel fireworks will be prohibited before new year's eve for more than half of the 70 countries involved in the u.n. climate talks have unveiled additional goals for 2030 but organizers say it's still not enough to stop dangerous global warming the century where china for instance has pledged to speed up the expansion of wind and solar power the u.k. has announced it will no longer fund oversees fossil fuel projects and pakistan says it won't produce additional power based on coal but strangely and brazil both of the major emitters failed to make ambitious enough pledges to even qualify to speak at an online summit and the outgoing administration of u.s. president told washington out of the paris accord didn't take part sunday gago reports. behind the crisis of a global pandemic another danger is waiting in the wings the climate emergency fueling global warming and according to the united nations with devastating

consequences for humankind if we don't change course we may be headed for a get the stuff you temperature rise of more than c. the good news the century get any body's fuel be merry that we are facing get the domestic emergency. it is why today i call on all of those worldwide to declare a state of climate emergency in their countries and you can look at how he is reached. 5 years on from the launch of the un climate summit when $196.00 countries signed on to prevent the rise in global temperatures the organization is sounding the alarm of the failures to curb greenhouse gas emissions. west some countries have acted on their commitments others have not. one country which has seen the effects of climate change is australia the world's number one exporter of coal its economy is heavily reliant on fossil fuels and over the past 5 years it has moved
4:37 pm
away from its commitment to cut carbon emissions. in recent years devastating bushfires have ravaged the country set off by record breaking temperatures as well as severe droughts and the us where in the past 4 decades the yearly wildfires in the west have grown 8 times larger the outgoing president donald trump controversially pulled the country out of the a court a policy that left many dismayed yet the commitment by president elect joe biden to rejoin the accords was welcomed at the virtual summit was a moment we find ourselves in an important moment days after the united states president elect joe biden has expressed his desire to rejoin the paris agreement and i really want to tell our american friends welcome back welcome home the impacts of climate change have been more evident in recent years from melting ice caps to intense hurricanes and rising sea levels while there have been extra

efforts to setup greener forms of energy the question will be how leaders deal with the current economic slump caused by the pandemic will they stick to their promises or will economic growth once again take precedence in a world that is experiencing more extreme weather phenomena sun able al-jazeera but aspect to mock houghton he is the director of the climate change institute at the straining national university he says while an increasing number of countries all committing to net 0 carbon emissions it isn't clear just how they'll achieved it. it seems to me that the summit was successful in the sense of it wanted to maintain momentum ahead of the glasgow conference of parties next year and the 5 year mark of the paris agreement when there was always an expectation that governments would step up with increased commitment the commitments under the paris agreement simply aren't enough to put
4:39 pm
a hold on climate change we're hitting more towards 3 degrees than keeping it to $1.00 or 2 so there is a very significant reason for concern here but what we did see was a large number of countries stepping up increasing their levels of commitment but they still question marks about how they're going to do that and so increasingly we're seeing net 0 commitments so roughly 2 thirds of the economies across the world have either got a commitment or are planning to put in a commitment like that but not necessarily with good good detailed plans about how they're actually going to do that in a cost effective way and maintaining economic growth and sustainability at the same time the latest science actually indicates that at the moment we're likely to get to 1.5 degree early in the 2030 years so that's not very far away and and so we do need to accelerate their mission reductions the sorts of emission reductions that the u.k. has announced that the us announced of $55.00 or 68 percent reductions is the sort
4:40 pm
of ambition or that by 2030 is the sort of ambition that we need globally and we need to deliver on that. also have an interview with patricia and i is that she is the executive secretary of the un framework convention on climate change and you can watch that interview here at 1930 g.m.t. on talk to out of their. afghan police say 3 people have been killed in attacks in the capital a prosecutor was shot dead in the east of kabul and in a separate attack 2 people were killed in a bomb blast targeting a member of parliament no group has yet claimed responsibility on saturday eisel feiss find 10 rockets into couples international airport killing at least one person well indonesian police say they've arrested a man believed to be the leader of an al qaeda linked group are some a son also known as upon them was taken into custody on thursday following a raid on a house in sumatra island he is suspected of being involved in the making of bombs
