a meet our challenges of the future and are many and everyone. everyone in that room today understood the shared appreciation. quite frankly, that america is back or russia and china have been a main focus of the summit in brussels. leaders have agreed to respond to moscow's aggression after true build up on ukraine's border, the ally until so declared beijing a global security challenge. they also discussed for in troup withdrawal from afghanistan with turkey, saying it'll need logistical and financial help to keep its forces in the country. after nato forces pull out its asha butler reports from nature headquarters in brussels. us present, joe biden sat down to reassure nato leaders of washington's commitment to the alliance. as he arrived for his 1st summit of the 30 member group in brussels, we're making clear nato is critically important for us interest in and of itself. if there weren't when we'd have to invest one clearly enjoying the moment

biden thought to rebuild trust after 4 years of donald trump, the former u. s. leader was openly hostile to nato, once even threatening to pull out the military withdrawal from us, ghana, stan climate change an native feature on the agenda, but relation with russia and china dominated discussions. china's growing influence on in national polls is percent challenges to alliance security. joe biden succeeded in persuading nato to back his ministration push for a tougher approach to china, regarded by washington as a major economic and strategic rival. but for most nato allies, russia remains the main threat relation between moscow and nato, are at the lowest points since the cold war on wednesday bite and shed you to meet russian leader vladimir putin. so highly anticipated talks in geneva, i shared at our allies that convey to press what i'll convey to president bowden.

but i'm not looking for conflict with russia, but then we will respond of russia continues as harmful activities. toys with turkey are also tense, biden called in meeting with the turkish president productive. the u. s. may be back as a reliable nato partner, but this analyst says some allies have concerns. the allies here as an asia will remember that trump had happened that something like him could happen again in the future. there are divisions in nato on some issues, but those differences remained mainly behind closed doors. as biden took center stage, leaders were clearly determined to turn a diplomatic page and show united front disaster butler al jazeera brussels. joe reuben is a former us deputy assistant secretary of state. he says it was important for the u . s. president, to show that nato allies are united there is

a bigger picture vision here for president biden in, for the nato partners, which is to say that the alliance is strong. and that it's whether some difficult years in the political pressures against it. and that it's not going anywhere and sending a message as a result of that to russia in particular. and of course, also to, to china and other competitors. jo buying has come out a very strong in talking about russia. but what does that mean for germany, for example, with its energy trade with russia? well, that's a little more complicated, but i think that the general direction in pushing and identifying who can go, how far within the light is critical. and that takes diplomatic skill, not through joe biden has been showing on this trip. it's an over the risk that they're seeing very clearly right now from an a perspective, not necessarily a direct military comp, which is what they're calling to. we're not in any way shape or form, but when we look at china is engagement in,

in the region. pressures on taiwan pressures on hong kong. use of soft power to move and manipulate countries in africa and countries across asia into a very subservient position in many respect. that is the threat to global stability . that is a concern. and so china has had a bit of a free reign from an american perspective. in the last several years, donald trump's policy talking about pressure, but really didn't exert collective action. this is an attempt to try to write size that and get the messaging across. in other world news, the national coming, of course, chief prosecutor, says, crimes against humanity may have been committed in the philippines during president rodrigo to take a so called war on drugs. on monday, the court requested permission to open a full investigation. government data shows more than 6000 suspected drug dealers have been killed since to teddy took office in 2016. but why schools say that figure is closer 230000 jemina island again has more from manila, isis you,

the me. welcome back. a recap of our top stories on al jazeera president, joe biden has reaffirmed the united states commitments to nato during a some age members of the alliance accused china being a security challenge. i'd be james mission to be. you says it's came exaggerated. the prosecutor of the international criminal court has requested permission to open an investigation into the death of an age drug dealers in the philippines. she says, crimes against humanity may have been committed during the government drug crackdown and the u. s. refugee agencies being accused of improperly collecting and sharing personal data from virginia refugees in bangladesh. a human rights launch report says the information was given to me on mar, for use in possible. we've had creation often without informed consent. israel,

the government has approved a controversial march by far rights nationalists. the day after enough, tiny bennett became prime minister. the groups planned to walk around occupied easter will spends o city on tuesday, which could rig nigh tensions. palestinian factions have called for a day of rage against the march. stephanie deca reports. it's the 1st real test for prime minister naturally bennett and his new coalition, the so called flag march, which right wing nationalist to his group used to mark jerusalem day when israel occupied east jerusalem in 1900. 67 will now take place on tuesday and many fear it could read night tension. it's a demonstration of power. it's a demonstration of control over the police, over the palestinian people. and the day itself, you know, we have been monitoring deployed for years and we have a lots of, lots of video showing that the pulling itself is actually

a demonstration of incitement. of lacy, susan. oh, the march was initially delayed from it's original date in may. it was cancelled just as people were gathering because rockets were fired from gaza as a warning against holding the event. and another delay from last thursday when police withdrew permission fighting security concerns. the former prime minister benjamin netanyahu then booted up in a cabinet meeting, stating the march should be allowed to happen, and also police chief barrels turned to ruth. it's an awful timing. all these, all these tensions does board the clashes in the board. the wool are still there, you know, we are still trying to heal from what we had been going through just few weeks ago, this area around damascus gate and occupied you through some it's been a flash point during recent tension. now palestinians t, this march as a major provocation, how math and other groups have cooled for

a day of rage. quoting for policies to come here in response. i, my family owns a bookstore here in east jerusalem. he tells us the settlers know very well. this is a provocative act, but that it goes beyond that. i think we have to look at the psyche of the government. the government claims them as a capital united. i mean, why do these people say the sets are celebrated, the invocation of them, because there was a kinetic parliament that the claims all the jealous them to be united in 984 are believe and hence, it's also a political point. it's a political act, it's a political stand, it's a government and political point to prove, despite the march for the 1st time not being allowed to pass through damascus gate . and through the muslim quarter of the old city, it is still being allowed to pass through occupied in jerusalem on the main road next damascus gate. it's an area seen as a communal heart for palestinians. have masses warned this could cause an escalation. and these really police have increased security not only here in

jerusalem, but israeli army has sent extra soldiers to the occupied west bank. its prime minister never bennett's 2nd day in office, leading a fracture coalition of opposing ideologies. many will be watching to see how he handles tuesdays events as a possible indication of the type of leader. he will be with stephanie decker, al jazeera in occupied east, jerusalem, southern me the number of corona vice dest in the us, is approaching 600000 more than 33000000 people have contracting the virus. but with almost half the population fully vaccinated, there's hope the worst may be over my can reports from washington. as a number of deaths near 600000 members of congress gathered at the capital in this divided institution, a rare moment of bipartisanship. as democrats and republicans came together to

remember the countries dead, the number of fatalities in the us that comes for some 15 percent of the reported total worldwide. this week there were $25000.00 cases, reported each day, 57 percent lower than the figure a month ago. there are still too many lives be lost. we're still average in the last 7 days. the us of $370.00 deaths per day. $270.00 deaths, that's significantly lower than at the peak of this crisis, but it's still a real tragedy. we're approaching a sad milestone, almost 600000 last lives because we covered 19 in america just under 50 percent of americans are fully vaccinated. that there's a marked disparity in terms of vaccination figures. the top 5 states with vaccination rates of 60 percent,

all over are all in the east. the bottom 5 with rates of 30 percent or lower are in the south with republicans controlling the bottom states. it's clear there's a political as well as geographical divide. and the vice president went to south carolina. as the administration tries to ratchet up vaccinations and areas that are lagging, the vaccines. let me say it again. are safe, they are safe, and they are free. and they are effective and it is that simple. the bite and administration had targeted a national 70 percent effects the nation rate by july, the full independence day. but even as the nation mourns that target and the hood immunity, it could promise, appears to be increasingly and attainable. my kind of, i'll just there a washington. the british government is delaying its plan to east cone of ice

the 1st wave last year. by being cautious now, we had the chance in the next 4 weeks to save many thousands of lives by vaccinating millions more people. i, once the adults of this company have been overwhelmingly vaccinated, which is what we can achieve in a short space of time. we will be in a far stronger position to keep hospitalizations down, to live with this disease. and to complete our cautious. but the reversible roadmap to freedom more than 56 percent of the adults are now fully vaccinated and extending restrictions into the summer months is testing public patience. drifting may be enjoyable on the river, but not in business or politics. pull, brennan, i'll just era kingston. you can for us says at least 833000 children

a nuclear agreement with war powers, known as the joint comprehensive plan of action. the man in charge of the negotiating team foreign minister and how much about the reef returned home to a hero's welcome future of the ren. but the victory was short lived here before iranians could see any of the benefits of the nuclear deal. the 45th president of the united states was elected and promptly withdrew from the agreement. donald trump then impose economic sanctions on iran, as part of what he called a maximum pressure campaign, to force iran to renegotiate the deal. but officials and tara refused and began to limit their commitments to the nuclear deal. initially, the j. c. p. away put restrictions on iran's nuclear ambitions in exchange for sanctions relief. but the u. s. maximum pressure campaign ended that now many are asking whether there be any drastic changes in iran foreign policy towards the u. s

. administration. so one of the biggest issues is the next bill. this is a decision at the level of on the publisher and not the administration itself. so if a new administration, most likely a conservative one takes office to me, it seems that the changes will be tactical and not in a tragic way. however, the tone, as well as the method might differ to some extent the number of events, including the fascination in november of 2020 of one of the highest ranking nuclear officials in the country. mosse and factories are they have hampered nuclear negotiations. the conservative lead parliament forced the government to limit its cooperation with the international atomic energy agency as a result of the killing. since then, there has been a temporary technical agreement reached with the i e h r, until these nuclear talks, which a conclusion in my last report, i have indicated that we have not been able to make that kind of progress. we were

expecting to be able to make it on a number of issues. iran's nuclear program has long been a point of concern for western powers. and since its advance to its highest enrichment levels of 63 percent concern among the international community has also reached its highest level. this phase is supposed to be used by the 7 presidential candidate for campaign, but it's mainly being used by one candidate running and city council. it's a sign of the move here in the capital about the election. but a positive outcome to the talks in vienna could offer economics really wrong and a huge political victory for the new president door safari alpha 0 on the operators of a nuclear plant in china, fixing what they say is it performance issue after concern was raised over a build up of gas emissions. it follows reports of a possible radiation leak at the facility and going down province. a chinese state operators face activities at the power station meet safety standards and the

surrounding environment is secure. plants, other operator, french energy giant d d f. has called for a meeting with its chinese spontaneity. nuclear engineer on gunderson is chief engineer of fair wind energy education. he explains what the problem is likely to be. i have a little nuclear fuel piece of nuclear fuel vicious. this is an example, and these are stack 12 feet high, and they're wrapped in a metal wrapper. that metal wrapper in theory keeps all the nuclear radiation from this fuel from getting out. at least one. if not more of those though, she's cells metal sheet about a stick as a dime, have cracked in the releasing radioactivity into the water inside the nuclear react . that it's a gas, it's called the xenon encrypt noble gases. and they appear to be building up inside the nuclear reactor. and some reports say they're also leaking out of the nuclear

reactor. and the right thing to do would be to shut the nuclear reactor down and, and look for the cheese that are leaking and replace them. and it does appear that the chinese want to do that right now. within the nuclear industry, there's not a lot of trust in, in the chinese nuclear program, they tend to make things look better than they really are. this reactor design has had numerous problems. that components will have to be replaced in the next year or 2. because of cracking. and so nuclear engineers within the rest of the world, are residents rather than to trust what comes out of, out of china for information prosecutor is in argentina, have began questioning the medical team that careful argentinian football,
