a global pandemic came from new hon china. that was characterized by a lack of transparency and a lack of international cooperation by the chinese communist party. today, in dramatic contrast, the united states is leading international relief efforts in an open and cooperative spirit with our friends and partners and allies. taiwan was initially seen as one of the pandemic success stories last year. it went more than 8 months without any domestic transmission. but it's recently had a surgeon, infections and deaths. fewer than 3 percent of the island is 23000000 people have been vaccinated. taiwan has signed contracts for doses of the asters, anika and were during the shots. but he's accused beijing of interfering in potential div secure vaccines from pfizer. china says hi juan governing parties

preventing it from sending doses. taiwanese law bands, chinese made medical products, including vaccines. taiwan is a self governing island that beijing claims as its own territory. and it's been unable to join bodies from the world health organization. early i spoke to ross, find gold, who's in asia, political risk analyst. he says the taiwan government needs to provide evidence to back its obligations that china interfered with efforts to secure vaccines on the vaccine sourcing issue the chinese made back teen is probably not going to be used here in taiwan for a number of regulatory as well as frankly, political purposes, that one is probably unrealistic if trying to say you're not letting our chinese made vaccine be used in taiwan. they're just not market or a demand for that here in taiwan. but when it comes to sourcing vaccines from the other global manufacturers, whether it's chinese interference is alleged by the taiwan government,

or it's actually what a lot of people here on the ground realized is bureaucratic inefficiency by the taiwan government. that's preventative. the sourcing of the fact that that's gonna play out over time. but if there is proof that the chinese government has bog taiwan from acquiring backings from american or european manufacturers, i would expect to tie government to share that prove rather than just make accusations by social media. where i prize conferences as they have been doing when it comes to why we had an outbreak here in taiwan and recent reach after going so long that it's a relative success story compared to other places around the world. it's clear that the very strict measures for quarantine were relaxed and for certain people including airline staff. and unfortunately, people returning from outside taiwan to taiwan did bring a virus back because it's not a total ban on people. and during and that it allowed a virus to spread within the past few weeks. in avenues yelman's government says 17

overpowered and cornered with their us handcuffs and dragged away. they wrote me to the investigation. a video about just more, less than 6 seconds. my hands is like this to the thought it to the to, to, to that soldier inside. and then they kicked me inside the car in the very bad way handcuff stuff. they were just making like this, like getting them tighter tighter inside the car. and they were picking me from everywhere in that area. how you had with their in her team were covering a peaceful demonstration, organized in solidarity with the families on the thread of course will eviction inches around in occupied east jerusalem. she has been accredited with israel's government press office for many years. she was held and interrogated at the police station where there is, as she was treated like a criminal after 7 or it's hours. i don't know how much time because they took from

part of international media networks for covering the protests, constriction. even as there are foreign journalists there are not receiving. so i think in addition to the message being sent to journalists generally as algebra, specifically, particularly after years or bombs. and there's also a message to how many journalists specifically about reporting and covering the policy. i think in this specific context, we are seeing that, you know, there's no holds barred when it comes to, you know, force being used against journalists for force being used against a 3rd of force being used against just average citizens for there. we saw yesterday with the protest run from check when where runners were accosted and violently treated by the israeli forces. however, we need to keep us in mind in mind the larger context over the years. you know, journalists have been killed to try by the israeli forces simply covering protests,

non violent demonstrations, even as well as being targeted by snipers in gaza for instance, over the years. so we shouldn't see this as an escalation of the federally but part of an overall package of trying to remove observers, including foreign civilians and others who come to observe the g. 7 group of advanced economies has reached a landmark deal, making it more difficult for the world's largest companies to avoid paying taxes. members have agreed to set a minimum of 15 percent global corporate tax threshold in countries they generate business, and that prevents companies timing profits off shore into tax havens. need bunker has a detail from london. tax ready gets pulses racing. but after 2 days of master mass talks in london, a commitment by g 7, finance ministers to for some of the riches companies in the world into paying their fair share. well, i'm delighted to announce that today off the days of discussion, g 7,
