event the infection totally but you are really in texting against the c.s. and against mortality and against other diseases so therefore it preventing severe disease is also an advantage and therefore we cannot just discard the you know that baby you know if you will it's are we need to look at this as an extreme and specially we are talking here about. virus almost any taller or an activated. vaccine that will give good unity so therefore i don't really discount that i think it's it's an advantage and we should take care of that especially under this circumstance and it demick russian opposition leader alexina bellamy is calling on his supporters to take to the streets after a court ordered him to stay in custody for the next 30 days dozens of people are

gathering outside a police building where he's being held is to tension was ordered over alleged violations of a suspended prison sentence in an embezzlement case he was arrested on sunday after returning from germany where he'd spent 5 months recovering after being poisoned early on about a player but he'd been subjected to a lawless trial. my own city but they're saying this is an open court decision on the police chief's motion for my wrist why is called in the police station why didn't they inform anyone why was i not served i've seen nonsense in the justice system before but this apparently that old men in the bunker is so afraid of everything that they defiantly ripped up and threw away the criminal proceedings code what is happening here is just impossible this is ultimately lawlessness cannot call it something else it was outrage from world capitals over the violin is arrest and detention germany says it's in comprehensible european commission president of underlay and has condemned it calling on the kremlin to immediately

release the money u.s. secretary of state my compare says that it's the latest attempt to silence voices critical of moscow however russians for russia's foreign minister says that about his detention is lawful so she's now running on the case of novelli has gained foreign political resonance artificially and baselessly everything is happening to the valley in connection with his returning and detention falls within the competence of the law enforcement forces life out of moscow and alexander god why is there for us so alexandria why did the court detain him for 30 days what happens once the 30 days is up. now he's been detained for 30 days saw that he can spend in jail basically time awaiting for his a hearing on the embezzle mint case this is the old case from 2014 when he was then in 2014 a sentence to suspend the sentence of 3 and a half years with

a probation period of 5 well then it was extended 6 years this probation period expired i have to say on the 30th to offer december so by the end of the month most probably he will face another hearing where the prison authorities of russia are there they want this suspended sentence to be changed so he actually serves this 3 and a half years this is what comes from the official side but what the number and his supporters are saying it was not only himself is saying is this is the way to sentence him actually he used a pause in this today's proceedings to record a short video in which he says that this is a punishment by the power by kremlin for him for daring to survive attempt on his life in this video he urged his supporters to take to the streets saying that this is exactly world authorities are afraid people on the streets so a power of the of power of the people we heard about the reaction from world

capitals was for the reaction within russia. well the reaction from a lot of rover we heard there he is saying basically that this has nothing to do with foreign policy or anything that this is all within the laws of russia what he or also all of that all of and made it clear today that there is one thing that's not right and again with the expect happening and that is russia to investigate the case of his for is an english of said that in russia they found no poisons das there is no grounds for the criminal investigation opposition has been outraged by the way he was detained by the very fact that by at the last hour they want to put him in jail for something that he's been sentenced to 2014 to shut him down and to shut the oppositional of voices of the original headquarters of the violin is

organization announced that on 23rd so this saturday they will organize a big protest across russia now the questions of course how big these protests will be because even though another irony is a leading oppositional figure in russia one has to know that the opposition russia itself is not that big or strong and there is a reasons for that they in the valley with his for a western views doesn't get a space in the mainstream media to communicate this to the people of russia the laws on brought this gathering or any criticizing of the government in boston 8 years have been becoming more and more strict coming to the point that it's almost impossible to protest and anything that that does appear in the mainstream media about the violin other oppositions. propaganda pieces of that basically vilified them so taken all this into account we will have to wait and see how many people

will actually come out they get these streets and to show their support for another violent and to show their outrage about the how these things have been developing including the fact that that he almost died in august 2021 exam to go for reporting live from moscow alexander many thanks dude. it with the news hour from al-jazeera still to come on the program the internet is back up in uganda after the government bass switched everything off last week on the eve of the presidential election plus court of the central african republic confirms president faustina has election win but will that be enough to silence his critics. added sports we'll hear from the skipper who thought that his team's bid to win the america's cup was about to sink without trace.

it's a scene never before witnessed on the streets of washington d.c. one of the secret services largest ever security operations just 2 days out for d.n.a. inauguration of president elect joe biden here's what we're seeing the national mall usually packed with tourists now resembles a heavy metal heavily militarized zone just 2 weeks ago the steps of the capitol were overrun by rioters now it's completely closed to the public fears of an insider attack have prompted the f.b.i. to vet all 25000 national guards being deployed to washington the scale of the undertaking reflects extraordinary security concerns that a gripping the u.s. capitol one of the things that i think we're learning and lessons learned is that. we all need to take those credible threats seriously and we're prepared. to do we need to do in order to support the citizens of our nation and our citizen soldiers you know we all come from different backgrounds different walks of life and we have

different ideas that will be done this uniform we have one mission and that is to do what is necessary to protect america. biden's inauguration will be held when saved right outside the capitol building already official so last can the public not to go under the title thrice a photo on restaurant cove it 19 the capitol building and thereby air is a part of a red zone that will be completely shot to almost all vehicles most of this area has been fenced off just beyond that it's a green zone it's still open to residents and cars used by local businesses but close to everyone else the swiss vehicle checkpoints and set up to screen entry into the red zone let's go live now to washington d.c. al jazeera is john hendren is our eyes on the ground in the capital john what's the situation now. where the entire city of washington now is really a militarized zone and it starts here you can see behind me that is in some of the

national guard troops there you see in camouflage and next to them are they is a customs and border patrol truck normally that would seem out of place here but there are police from all kinds of different local and federal agencies all over this street so not just the 25000 national guard troops you were talking about and that by the way is a record here normally for an inauguration there are about $10000.00 troops the most we've had here in d.c. after the assassination of martin luther king was 13000 you can see some of them right here men and women carrying m. 4 rifles in the streets of washington that's an unusual sight and they are blocking traffic from going down this street now about a kilometer down that road that's where security really begins if you want to go into or the mall in the center of this city you have to be checked for weapons through a magnetometer with the secret service so nobody in that zone is allowed to be

carrying a weapon you can see that many of the buildings here been boarded up and look here this is an advertisement from the f.b.i. with the faces of people who invaded the u.s. . 6 these are the people that f.b.i. agents are still looking for and keep in mind they've already arrested over about $100.00 people now we took a look. at security court over there take a look at the story we put together. the u.s. capitol is surrounded by sirens steel and soldiers in a military occupation never before seen in the american capital 25000 national guard troops secure the national mall that's twice the number here after the 1968 assassination of martin luther king jr and then there are the thousands of u.s. capitol police city police f.b.i. border patrol and others. the mob assault on the capitol on january 6th shown here in a video released sunday by the new yorker magazine has left a city and

a nation grappling with the aftermath of an insurrection fearing another possible assault on democracy and traumatized. i think it's going to be better because i think. joe biden's january 20th inauguration comes with crowds reduced by the pandemic on ground trampled by a riot under the shadow of his predecessors 2nd impeachment. pennsylvania avenue is usually one of the busiest thoroughfares in washington d.c. now it is the center of a green zone a security area that stretches 3 kilometers from capitol hill behind me to the potomac river this is now a city in lockdown. everyone entering the largest secure a zone in presidential inauguration history is screened for weapons inside fences upon fences steel looked on steel just as it seemed the center of the city was

entirely barricaded workers bring in still more fortifications every manhole cover is sealed against threats from below now this city's most iconic street is a park for runners roller bladers and pedestrians enduring a historic up evil my heart hummingbird and i don't know what to do. so i usually go for my daily walk and i couldn't go for it so. i figured out that i could walk this way. across the u.s. the f.b.i. warns of possible armed protests outside all 50 state capitol eyes following the armed invasion in april of the michigan state house. as federal agents scour the country for those who invaded the houses of congress arresting this nashville tennessee man on sunday the u.s. prepares for what most americans hope will be a peaceful handover of government power even as it braces for another assault.

now a different version of this is going on in all 50 states and state houses where as you heard in that story the f.b.i. has perceived that there are possible armed threats made here in washington perhaps because we have tens of thousands of troops and police here it's been very quiet there have been a few arrests 2 separate men both happened to be from virginia who were arrested carrying weapons and large amounts of ammunition trying to get them. through the security cordon they were arrested there was also a woman who was arrested for falsely claiming that she was a police officer and then that she worked for the federal government but we've got 2 days yet to go here this a curator is very very high and for a lot of the people that we've talked to they're just looking forward to having this all over with al-jazeera john hendren reporting live there from washington d.c. john many thanks indeed for more let's bring in stephen raunchiness who's the u.s. military security and defense analyst and former member of the f.b.i.

national joint terrorism task force he joins us now via skype from nutley new jersey good to have you with us again sir how on earth do you go about vetting $25000.00 national guard posts now in 2 days well it's absolutely impossible it takes months sometimes up to a year at the vet one person my guess is is that they're going to just do a simple type of vetting meaning that they will go through their computer banks data banks see if any red flags come up i could tell you that they'll probably depend on any information that fellow soldiers if you will could provide law enforcement perhaps if they heard some extraordinary talking by a fellow soldier some suspicious behavior but to do it their own investigation darrell vetting of all 25000 is absolutely impossible but a cursory checks could be good enough. not at all i mean look. they

need to be very proactive moving forward and that is making sure that they conduct security checks every month or so every 2 years i had security checks done every 5 years which is not enough in this day and age but a cursory check is a going to do what they're looking to accomplish. and i report that washington d.c. resembles something of a fortress now it's and complete lockdown it would be extremely difficult for anyone planning anything to get inside that zone to what extent is perhaps the danger elsewhere in the united states while they were supposed to be a major protest yesterday in every capital across america and there were none so i would say that as long as law enforcement is proactive and they have enough manpower and enough intelligence and information that could lead them to at the

very least take into custody anyone planning a violent attack we're going to be ok and with social media having bumped so many extremists off their platforms how does the f.b.i. become aware of what's being planned if anything's being planned with these groups having gone underground on the internet. it's a great question and the direct answer is we have to sort of depend on what we did in the old days and that was human intelligence you need to increase funding for all law enforcement local federal and state you need to get the eyes and ears back out on the streets in the neighborhoods and in the cities and that's probably the best way and most efficient way of doing it at this time i was going to talk to so many thanks indeed for being with us once again steven rogers there in the nutley new jersey i pleasure thank you. at least 20 people have been killed in sudan's south darfur region of the fighting between rival tribes dozens of people were

injured in the town of tal wheeler the unrest comes weeks after un peacekeepers began with drawing from the region amid a rise in violence that the constitutional court of the central african republic has confirmed that president fast in 2 or deborah has been reelected the opposition wanted a rerun of the december vote they say pre-election violence scared away voters fighting is still on the way rebels opposed to to a reelection unsuccessfully tried to invade the capital last week but they threatened to attack again if the government didn't step down by sunday welcome webb as the latest from the central african republic capital. no sign of the civilian political opposition in the cool room today in the ruling very much maybe the ruling party of president then the opposition is that there was widespread irregularities. in many parts of the country and the poll should be

rerun that the constitutional court rejected it just outside. of. the celebration going on to. some by standards of look but there isn't really an enormous crowd of supporters and this is one of the problems that faces according to a lot of the day that none of the back sions who are vying for power really represent population or may just support the opposition who were challenging the ruling in court to just part of it the armed groups that he mentioned or another policy that just outside the city they pull with the forces that support the government last week and they make clear their intention to come in again they've said that the government should step down on the on the stand of the build up of thousands of fighters on the edges of the capital to help at the government u.n. peacekeepers there also russian fighters from the wagner group

a private military company that closed for the day i'm ruined and so does as well the government here says they're just said to have bilateral agreement. widely thought that there's different countries may i mean trust in the not true resources on the ground in the central african republic uranium gold and diamonds that foreign powers. here for more than a century. uganda's government has restored internet access across the country it had been cut off since the eve of the presidential election last week the official results show president yachting a 70 easily winning a 6 but opposition candidate probably why and has promised to provide evidence of fraud when the internet was reconnected. we'll get a weather update backstay on al-jazeera then. from this day forward it's going to be only america. we look at the foreign policy legacy the president trump

leaves for job by. samsung's boss gets a prison sentence for his involvement in a huge corruption scandal. and then in sports world cup hosts qatar reveal more details about the next big tournament to be held in the country. but. how i would say some rather nasty weather pushing across the eastern side of the mediterranean recently turkey has seen a fair bit of snow that snow is making its way through a swiss will see a wet and wintry weather fading across the eastern side of trails down across northern parts of syria again we've had some flooding into the northeast of syria whether they're cold enough damascus that just 9 celsius on tuesday afternoon in the cloud and the rain which stretches its way down through israel into the

palestinian territories and moves sink a little further south which is nice which as we go into the middle part of the week so somewhat the weather coming in here jerusalem turning somewhat cool it just 9 celsius here as well the south of that it is fine and dry not bad here in doha at about 22 degrees over the next couple of days and plenty of sunshine which stretches down across the whole of africa meanwhile across central parts of africa we have got more heavy downpours as showers sliding all the way down into southern areas of madagascar we'll see some wetter weather making its way through here actually northern parts we're now looking at a little sod elway's filtering its way across the northeast of the country on shoes there making landfall on tuesday with some very heavy rain and a punch its way a little further west which is because for the next couple of days with the likelihood. of widespread flooding. i care about how the u.s.

engages with the rest of the world we're willing and fit in taking you into a place you might not visit otherwise and feel that you were there al-jazeera as an investigative unit a team censored and unseen video from will high filmed as the coronavirus are great is just beginning to listen in on all the bullshit the fact is only in the background. exposing this secrecy and censorship by chinese authorities. and a health system struggling to cope al-jazeera investigation 3 dates that stop the world. to see a use and it's often a model wanted and you want to listen to see. when you're going to. have a little relieved with you.

i don't get this is the news now from out to 03 and for the good here in doha the headlines all just here is investigative unit has obtained videos smuggled out of china to show the earliest days of a covert 19 outbreak of war on a show police cracking down on journalists and hospital wards full of newly infected people. russian opposition figure alexina valley is calling on his supporters to take to the streets after a court ruled that he be kept behind bars for the next 30 days he was arrested on sunday after turning to russia from germany way spent 5 months recovering after being poisoned and u.s. defense officials say they fear a possible inside attack at the inauguration of president elect joe biden that's

prompted the f.b.i. isn't that all $25000.00 national guard troops deployed to the capital washington remains locked down without precedent to levels of security and some breaking news out of washington d.c. smoke could be seen rising behind the capitol building in washington this is picture is video posted by my colleague something maria who is there in washington an external security threat has been detected the west front of the capitol has been evacuated let's go live now to come out who's with us on the line from washington come all what more can you tell us about what you're seeing that. so right now adrian i'd say the smoke has dissipated it was black smoke to start out with if you got that video which i posted on twitter and then turned to white smoke and now i can't see any from it is the building to the right system of the capitol building federal offices the rehearsals for the january 20th inauguration were

going on at the time the. original it's already been put off by probably 3 or 4 days and we heard a timely announcement thank you for an external security threats no one can go in or out of the area we still troops some of these thousands of troops on the move that disappeared it's empty now there's no movement in front of the capitol. no gration rehearsal suspended for now and no sign of anything unfortunately no further information yet about what might have actually been ok come on many thanks indeed cross out of our area there live in washington once again the u.s. capitol on lockdown no entry or exit due to once being described as an external security threat as has alan fischer is with us from washington and we know has come all the same that very little more than that. but i didn't want to tell you i mean the building has been closed down clearly at the moment there are heightened

concerns anything of this sort of nature tends to get people worried. overly excited agitated it could be just a routine thing but my understanding is that all but finished when these announcements started to be made we don't even know if this isn't part of their hair still just thinking something like this happened and how would the national guard and the others that are there the other federal enforcement agencies then evacuate the building so this could even be part of the exercise we don't exactly know that yet but as i say at a time like this people tend to be slightly more anxious slightly more worried and when they see things like smoke in the air near the capitol the immediately begin to get can sound and what about the washed so it could be a drill but it would be highly unusual to have an actual security threat given the

state of security there in washington at the moment with the the capital the central the central part of the capital under virtual lockdown. well i'm looking at the pictures and i know that part of town reasonably well because we do spend time up on capitol hill i think given where we're seeing this more comes from that's it well within the security zone well inside that area that is fenced off that not only has national guard the egg stadia as you move in towards the capitol building you have even more federal officers there are checks there as well if you want to get into that area you have to go through a metal detector if anything they will immediately check your bag there are also machines there that can sniff to see if there are any explosives if you have any residue sometimes that flags up there are dogs who do the same thing so this is a huge operations i'd be surprised if anyone managed to get inside that cordon with

anything that posed a huge threat but never say never so it's a case of just waiting to find out what the authorities tell as i was trying to get through to washington d.c. to metro police just when i came here to sit in front of the camera their claim is engaged not surprisingly because i'm sure that not only are the usual people here in washington d.c. calling them but everyone who is here from around the world is calling them as well simply because there is this alert and this one all right allan for the moment many thanks indeed unofficial their lives in washington where much of the world will be watching to see how quickly joe biden's of this traceable unwind donald trump's foreign policy agenda after 4 years of america 1st washington's closest partners are eager to see the u.s. pivot back towards international engagement but the new president will face an uphill battle to restore trust with key allies our diplomatic editor james bays

reports from washington. from the moment he took office it was clear view administration of donald trump would be very different from this day forward a new vision will govern our land from this day forward it's going to be only america 3rd choice it didn't take long for the united states as our allies to realize that meant they were now dealing with the most disruptive president since world war 2 straining the system of international order built over 75 years trying to move quickly to dismantle the achievements of the obama administration at odds with all his closest allies he pulled out of the paris climate deal believe me this is not what we need and then the iran nuclear agreement this was a horrible one sided deal later in the midst of the pandemic he withdrew the us

from the world health organization today terminating our relationship with the world health organization and not only did he pull the us out of the un human rights council the hypocritical and self-serving organization from rarely ever stood up for human rights and at times he seemed more comfortable with the us is traditional adversaries than its closest allies we now know from some of his advisors he came close to pulling out of the us is most important military alliance nato summit meetings like this one in brussels were or could have vents with everyone else treading on eggshells to avoid the ire of the impulsive often ill informed u.s. leader most u.s. allies around the world are now breathing a sigh of relief despite the drama after november's election president elect joe biden's foreign policy is easy to summarize reverse direction resign international agreements and work collaboratively with allies america is back. ready to lead the

world not retreat from it once again sit at the head of the table ready to confront our adversaries and not reject our allies ready to stand up for our values the relationship the presidents before trump built with our allies was based on trust it's a commodity that takes a long time to grow but is easy to lose and that's the problem for the biden administration the us is closest allies will be looking over their shoulder wondering whether in 4 years time trump will be back and if it's not him it could be another president with trump like america 1st policies james byrd's al-jazeera washington. that's for an hour 0 senior political analyst and bashara who's here with us in doha. so much to unpack so little time not mention it james report there the moving of the u.s. embassy there is from in israel to jerusalem summits with north korea's kim jong un

the withdrawal of troops from iraq and afghanistan the gulf crisis the blockade of cats are how difficult is it going to be for the by the administration to undo all of that and rebuild trust. well clearly there are some. key important decisions that have to be made and he's already making some of them one is that he's going to rejoin the iran nuclear deal along with the europeans the chinese on the russians basically or the international community and try to stabilize that or nations with iran and end the nuclear enrichment i think that's going to be key in order to reshift and stabilize the issue of gulf security and and the security in general all around them so if it came down so on that will lead us to the other key question which is that relations with israel he would probably restore relations with the p.l.o. and richly support to the policy of the show and he will try to do what president

obama tried to do which is decoupling the strategic mind set with israel meaning that the united states will no longer blindly walk in israel's footsteps and the secretary of state of the united states will no longer to be israel's foreign minister meaning mr blinken biden's secular state will not act like mike on bail at the service of not the national government doing everything possible in order to defend in order to support in order to appease the israeli government so much so that as in one of his recent tweets he said that one of the more sensitive moments for him was when the united states recognized the occupied syrian golan heights as an israeli territory which is of course the violation of international law the 3rd and last one is of course re. refocusing and

reshaping that a ship was saudi arabia and ending the war in yemen that's going to be key and that's part and parcel of the united states suffering relations with autocrats and dictators in general including. egypt and other places so that human rights will once again become at least and in time in terms of appearance an important issue of course foreign parts so what are the implications of all of this for the middle east region itself is the region going to have to look and feel any different by the end of the biden presidency. what of course it's of course it's too early to tell and what we know is that biden although not exactly an obama $2.00 if we're going to don't judge foreign policy by appointments of course he's appointing more so that people from the obama administration so in that sense we going to see

a foreign policy that's not an activist policy meaning that the united states will no longer neither. obama nor fonda that might that are that trump would be taking offensive positions certainly would not be deploying more and more troops and getting out more and more wars unless there's something major of course that influences american national security but otherwise we're going to see america but haps as detached as it well joining the obama administration it's going to avoid making reckless decisions or as obama said you know his doctrine will be don't do stupid. h r i t. so who. as far as that the diplomats that the biden administration will will be dealing with that that the various foreign ministers the various leaders. of other they open to to this this change in u.s. foreign policy that that's coming. but i think this is

a very important question and it's important because. it's part of the sickle on the one hand american allies would like to see it not to get involved as it where during the last 70 years and would like to stick to see america kick a leadership role that would like to see that liberal foreign policy a rain again it would like to see i might go to join international situations whether it is the u.s. code that you want rights council. whether it is the world health organization. you know or and the proudest climate change and some software so certainly the european association east asian allies would like to see if i got a get in volved again on the other hand they don't want a brighton to expect that they will that they themselves would return to the pre trump years meaning they have been burnt by trump and hence it's going to take

quite some time to establish trust and even wind sources established some of those europeans and southeast asians have one of the most on for example many of them including the european union as well as many south asian countries are allies of the united states have established it canonic trade agreements with china which is of course trump did not want and biden does not want without american consent and green light but they have moved on and for them to me establish or to reframe their initial shift where the alliance with the united states in the same footing as before trump they're going to see more than words from. by the administration they would want to see deeds they would want and i'm sorry to say that but they would want by then to make america great again after its decline under trump a senior political analyst known bashar that lives in doha a moment many thanks. it's

a break now they're going to resume in the next half an hour or so they have been debating the question and answer and basically to the prime minister after he gave around an hour of speech defending what had been achieved this year pretty much on sharing to. is the politician the former prime minister who pulled his 2 cabinet ministers out of the government causing this potential crisis so basically saying that they've done a lot with a very difficult situation and that he was all seeing them to back him now we do expect pretty much the vote today in the lower house of parliament to paul's tomorrow is another issue he will have to give address the senate the upper house of parliament there he doesn't seem to have the numbers at the moment so everything is still up in the air but certainly a lot of people here questioning the timing of this saying that this perhaps is not the time to be political posturing if you were from what they were saying that this country has had such a challenging year it remains in real challenging times a.j.

and you know this is a country hugely reliant on tourism we've been talking to business owners of the last a week or so everything is in lockdown restaurants calling open bars calling open shops are not making money there are no tourists here a lot of things still need to be addressed so many people questioning the timing of this but again so today in the next couple of hours we'll know whether a policy of the lower house but that perhaps more challenging will be tomorrow so we'll have to wait and see whether this government survives or whether it takes a whole new form that of course is not something this country needs right now which is there a stephanie decker reporting live from rome many thanks jeff. just to update you on the situation we reported on a few moments ago near the u.s. capitol when smoke could be seen emerging from behind the building officials tell us that the evacuation at the inaugural rehearsal that was going on at the time was due to a fire several blocks away and was not believed to be
