and serious, don't have regular access to enough food, despite the battlefield, being largely quiet for a year, agencies say the daily suffering of syrians is worse than it has been at nearly any point throughout the conflict. and the hardship has not stopped a serious border. ah, president by pushes g 7 leaders for an alliance against china, up the stay on valan mega project plan to compete with paging. belton road initiative, i just gather to send a message to g 7, members about the complexity that israel occupational palestinian territory. ah, hello, get on a dream. so again, this is al 0 life and also coming out most go to class nearly

a week of non working days and shortens restaurant hours as it tries to bring rising code. 19 infections under control algerians voted parliamentary elections, but democracy at this rate it won't change the political system ah. as g 7 liter shift their focus to foreign policy. on the 2nd day of the summer to the u. k. the uniting against what they view as a resurgent china. they've agreed to support a u. s. proposed mega project plan, which is designed to compete with china's belton road initiative. the u. s. plan called build back better as part of president jo bivens efforts to form a more unified front to compete economically with china. preventing another pandemic is also a main point of discussion today. it's understood that the leaders will pledge to work out ways to stamp out future outbreaks within the 1st $100.00 days. let's go

live now to what you're going to counsel. and so i've not far from the summit video diplomatic editor james base is there, sir. james? china is belton, wrote initiative, is to get some competition. how's that going to work? and why g 7 lead us? so concerned about the resurgence of china deeply worried about china and china's influence in the world and whether that is good for the world and good for their own countries. it's the u. s. initiative that is being proposed, but it seems now to be backed by all of the g 7 and will be reflected in the final communique, a rival to the belts and road initiative, which now has spokes all over the world in latin america, in africa, in europe. the plan is to do something similar from a western perspective,

from those u. s. allies to build together something. now the full name is the building back better for the world initiative, and they're going to call it the b 3 w for short. they believe that this will be more transparent than the belts and road initiative. they believe that it will fit environmental and labor standards, which they say the chinese do not do. and they say that it's actually going to benefit countries. they won't be left with that afterwards. which is what they say will be the result of those countries that are doing business with china. the problem i think is 1st, they are 8 years behind china's belton road initiative, which is fully up and running. this thing is just still right now. the pipe dream. the other thing is the sums of money involved the u. s. officials who are briefing report is about this said they estimated that was a gap in needs of infrastructure of 40 trillion dollars between now and 2035. and they hope that countries to contribute money for schemes to deal

with that sort of infrastructure. but where's the money going to come from? just look at the us. president biden has his own infrastructure bill. he's trying to get through congress. he's having great difficulty there. i don't see how the u . s. is going to get more funding. certainly for 8 to give to this sort of scheme when it's so hard to find funding for infrastructure within the united states and on the health front. james, after pledging 1000000000 curve at 19 vaccines for poorer nations, the g 7 leaders. and now looking at the world's pandemic preparedness with this plan to, to be able to stamp out future pandemic within $100.00 days of them emerging. absolutely. right. now the leaders of course, having lunch and there are some individual meetings between lead us and, and tell you the president biden is meeting president macro as we speak. but in an

hour's time, it is that health session. and they say they're trying to look at what has happened in the world over the last year. the lessons learned, trying to find a way to do things like vaccines much quicker, early warning that there is a problem with a pandemic. much quicker that will be briefed by melinda gates. the health campaign will be briefed also by the head of the world health organization. doctor ted ross, a real contrast with last year. when the u. s. leader donald trump would see dr. ted dross and even pulled funds out of the world health organization that can come up with declaration called the cob is bay declaration to fight future pandemic. but i think that will be some de la asking whether they're doing everything that they need to do is, you know, there's been a loss of calls for peyton's to be lifted by pharmaceutical companies. i don't think that's going to be in the final communique, but we will have to wait because this is saturday at the g 7 and there is a full day business on sunday will be moving mainly to talk about climate change

before we're going to actually see that communicate published diplomatic, it's a james based reporting live from cornwall in the united kingdom. we're going to stay in the u. k. when london, thousands of people are demonstrating and support a palestinian rights rally as part of the resist g 7 day of action for international justice. they've marched towards the prime minister's official residence in downing street, but just as demanding an end to what they say is complicity israel's war crimes in the occupied palestinian territory by the u. k. and other g 7 governance jessica lives now to london al jazeera pull. brendan is at that demonstration which sounds pretty noisy and i'm pretty well attended pull yeah, so many up these events has fluctuated during the course of the spring time and i was that the 2 previous ones may 15, for example, some 15000 people march from high pock,

my last 2 israeli embassy. and then the following week may 22nd. we had somewhere in a region of 180000 people. you actually attended? raleigh, marching from the embankment here in central london out to hyde park and enormous rally that was at the height of. busy the gaza bombardment. now the 5 2nd, placing dog punching, protesting, changed inside. and today, where did you 7? some. so that's what they've been talking about. predominantly is feeding point cost. so that's why it's a whole israel, patrice, the palestinian people on the call is from the professor who goes to 7 leaders to actually pay some attention to this and take a short while ago i spoke with rob about the treaty. she is the president of the

muslim association of griffin. the need is the g 7 countries is still pulled. international law is due and says, the national law is a fundamental part. and for one country to feel that this can be a loan high risk due to what we think is how do you with the continued ethnic cleansing continue, disposition the latest effect on obviously they've been doing the 73 years waiting for those to be and, and i think it's time for those needed to talk about the end of the feed and had to had to be b, as in boy grady said to me and, and to the man's israelis just well, i'm still complex to see the deals with with, with israel the problem that the campaign is here

is the nature of, i think the new cycle, but also the political like. we saw, for example, you out of the data, your how report arrested area. a party to summon. huge headlines over that. we saw the associated press in god's bomb, why the israel is massive worldwide headline for them. the very nature of the complex in gaza, israel and the occupation of the west bank is the things move on. and the challenge for these groups that day and will no doubt continue to press the protest throughout the summer is keeping the pressure on those 7 leaders. action at some point becomes necessary under that various pul, brenda reporting live from central london pool. many things covered. 1900 infections or again, spreading fast in russia, particularly in big cities like most cope in response, moscow's mass declared that people stay away from work for much of next week.

russia recorded more than 13000 new cases on saturday, the highest single day number since february was half of them were in moscow. let's go live now to the russian capital. i'm just us, bernard smith is the just how serious is the current situation in russia right. while numbers rising so quickly. well, but infection, right? you mentioned adrian is the highest tale in the city this year. and although restaurants and bars will have to close at 11 pm, you're still supposed to max in door. the problem is that it's not particularly rigorously in full. so rigorously observed, you do see people wearing must be in goals, but they're often on the nose is all there under that chain or people just don't wearing them at all. and the difficulty seems to be the a concerted nationwide campaign about cove it. the last lockdown was in russia full. total lockdown ended 12 months ago. and it only lasted for

a couple of months. the mayor of moscow, he says it's remarkable. but hospitals are filling up, while vaccines are readily available. consider this about 12 percent of russians. i've had one dose of the corona, virus, and vaccine. compare that to the united states, to canada, to the rest of your and your talking between 45 and 60 percent of people have had at least one dose. but at y o vaccination rates in russia so low 1st of all it seems to be that people are generally vaccine skeptical here. between 60 and 70 percent of people say they're not willing to get a backseat. and that seems to stem from a general distrust of what the government is trying to get them to do this. despite the fact that rushes back, the next 5 inter, internationally recognized as being very, very effective. more than 391 and 93 percent efficacy. nevertheless,

russians are reluctant to get vaccinated, and as i mentioned, the lack of nationwide campaign. so the impact of cove it all the net necessity to observe social distance regulations and things like that. not really particularly well regarded here in russia because people don't talk about it. so people seem to carry on a zip code. it is that in the background, but they've not taking great steps in that daily activities to try and affect it spread. and remember when many of the will lead, as we're prepared to show the photo cold of them being vaccinated, vladimir putin only got vaccinated in march. we understand there was no photo call . so the hasn't been much leadership from government in terms of coding course. i'll just smith reporting live out from moscow, but many thanks. coming up on the weather here on our 0 iran presidential hopefuls hold the final tv debates hoping to attract more interest. but in the previous

debates, a few ways up its relationship with the u. s. s. pressure to end the t great conflict creates friction. ah, how we got more, very heavy, right. it's the central and southern parts of china. northern parts also seeing some live down pools. the cloud very widespread. some very disturbed weather coming in across much of a stage are also showers at eastern part of china up towards north facing at around $35.00 degrees celsius and west. the weather will continue to push its way further east was there will be some love to share with into vietnam for time, cream, financial, state, fine and dry. that's the good news. southern parts of china, one, the other had also seeing some rather wet weather which should turn out with some very heavy rain that we have just around the south china sea. we have

a tropical depression here. it's moving pretty quickly at around 25 kilometers per hour. but in terms of the winds, not too much of a concern is all about the rain. there will be flooding into north vietnam that will be flooding to a cross suddenly passed. all allow were same flooding to its western areas of in the moon by his st. huge amounts of rainfall recently the past 24 as 268 millimeters of right. but take a look of this. over the last 5 days, we've seen a staggering meter of rainfall coming through round twice the tune, average rainfall after that western side of in the place is so much bye. get something of a relief over the next couple of days. but plenty of rain for the western gas. the be part of the debate is self defeating the end, posing in the us or in the u. k. because it will just come back again when no topic is off the table. what we wanted to talk about, the white man,

touching aloud this dream, where a global audience become a global community, jumping to the comment, fraction, and part of the discussion. there are, like i said, the metric efforts to silence fell opinions on the online, based on al jazeera. ah, the me again, this is i'll just here are the main use this g 7 lead us of agreed to support a us proposed mega project plan designed to compete the china's belton road. busy initiative as part of president jo bivens assets the fully united front to compete the beijing and the u. k. thousands of people are taking part of the demonstration

to support palestinian rights that amounting an end to what they say is the g 7 complicity it. israel's war crimes in the occupied territory. cobra 19 infections of rising again in russia, particularly in big cities like moscow in response to the capitals math. there's a lot of people to stay away from work. so much of next week. i've kind of stones government is asking for international help as it grapples with a 3rd wave of covert infections. only a fraction of people have been vaccinated against coven 19 hospitals, once again filling up with critically ill patients. i'll just eras priyanka go to reports side, alicia was gasping for when his wife brought him to this hospital and cobble, he spent 4 days in intensive care. his doctor says his covert 19 like other patients around him. but in have gone, a son, doctors don't just fight the virus, but also fear, and stigma will hold on. i'm not infected by the corona virus and i have

a chest infection and cough ice cream. the weather was cold and so i got a chest infection for a 3rd wave. the pandemic is pushing hospital still breaking point in a country of 39000000 people. they are barely enough. i see you beds are oxygen for patience. the kaufman says the next 4 weeks will be difficult. so the total shop, the private hospitals are not taking care of us as well. they take money from us and send us back home saying they don't have any oxygen. they don't have ambulances to several 100. your people are seeking treatment, or even a green to a coven, 19 test. even though the number of infections and deaths arising fast, the official figures don't seem to reflect that number could be and estimated because the most of the hospital who have the capacity or does this need to do the p c. r, testing of the corporate vision. they do not like that to just all the

people who are coming to them, or they cannot do that condo crossing of kind of stuff has been able to vaccinate, fewer than one percent of its population in a country where life is ever uncertain. under the constant threat of attacks and political instability, the virus is pausing a challenge for a government which was barely prepared for the pandemic. let alone its worst waves so far. priyanka got the 0 and i've got to stop at least 7 people were killed and then cobble in 2 exclusions to commute events were hit within 30 minutes of one another. they were an area dominated by the minority. has our community 12 people were killed in a similar attack in the neighborhood last month. i'll jillions of hosting and the 1st parliamentary election since mash mass protests forced president angela's ease boot flicker. the step down 2 years ago, the pro democracy movement is urging supporters to boycott the vote to several of

its leaders were arrested along with journalists on thursday. the fashioned good aim reports algerians have been promised a new algeria by president abdul majid to boone. but for many, the 1st legislative elections since protesters pushed out his predecessor in 2019, are heading for the same outcome, preserving the political status quo in their country. they be equally had. it turns out that jury and confirm that for them elections have never been a solution and that's why they cut them and study dean and the elections are being held just after president boone dissolved the parliament. some members still had a year left on their term. the government says it inactive reforms designed to fight systemic corruption and create more opportunities for women and young people . more than half the candidates are running as independence,

providing voters with an alternative to the old guard political parties. i'm going to vote because i see that they are candidates who will bring change to the country, knowing that the previous ones were more focused on their personal affairs and they forgot about people. critic say these elections are an attempt by the government to provide a near of legitimacy to a young, frustrated population that continues to protest. that meant that the between the solution lies into them. craddick transition and also allows you to dialogue around the table in order to solve the crisis. and the crisis will not be sold by elections. but unfortunately, the toward the still insists on their old practice of organizing elections. there has been a crackdown on protesters and journalists now there are calls for a boycott which could give muslim parties of boost the midst of a i do not have a voting card. and in any case, even if i had one,

i would not vote if last november is constitutional referendum is any guide, voter turnout could be low back then. only about one in 7 eligible algerians voted. natasha named al jazeera and iran. the 3rd and final presidential election debate is taking place live on state television right now. the theme is people's concerns as a radians prepared to vote in next week's polls, asset beg reports from 10 from so far it's been pretty straightforward. the, the candidates are trying to address people, the grievances, all of which are many economics of the unemployment rate, inflation rate, the value of the iranian currency and corruption. so, so far we've had the candidates tried to appeal to the pool in the countries, things that to create millions of jobs and the terms increase the government budget . but no one's actually said how they're going to do that. previous debates with

each candidate to talking to each other, but people were complaining that the debates are boring and the delight can debate to a game show right now. it's just currently the, each candidate has 7 minutes. describe how they would address people to grievances and as i said, that going through talking about millions of jobs are increasing budgets to happening corruption without actually really giving any detail much like the previous debates. iran has regained its rights, devoted the general assembly after paying fees that it owed to the united nations. it says that it was able to do so for the u. s. allowed it to use funds frozen in south korea. terrace says it's been unable to access $20000000000.00 worth of oil revenue as abroad because of sanctions imposed by former us president donald trump . iran voted the general assembly on friday to elect 5 non permanent members of the security council. us president joe by miss calling for swift end to the conflict and ethiopia in northern te gray region. it's the strongest comments yet from the

on its own and do not need the u. s. meddling and interfering you now, you should stop calling your your we are now facing challenges in terms of inflation and the high cost of living. and if the pressure from the u. s. continues, things would become even more difficult for us if your opinions the functions on that is to present the tonic point in elections between the 2 countries. so it says the conflict of the muslim to jennifer grey head up that last more than that. it's led to reports of atrocities must violence, a lot of nic lines and war crimes been committed against civilians. but if your opinion of friendships is asians are very much important, they need to be sorted. auth, issues of humor arrives, atrocities which, being for me to disagree, i should be investigated. people who are the responsible should be for our friend it. i don't have any doubt about this,

but the confrontation kinds of relationship between the 2 and the u. s. a might, or the ain't take ethiopia to the east, which could be how productive they threw up in governmental dismissed criticism of its handling of the kinds of integration. it is in the interest of ethiopian government as well to nets due to the message wanted for it. and we don't think it's right on the part to be the ship to work, to splitting these these lessons because this relationship to the benefit of most americans, both countries it's, it's also did interest of the regional people if you received a more than $5000000000.00 from the u. s. government, over the past 5 years to humanitarian project and development. top does not include
