with him, la health, save thousands of jews from nazi concentration camps and how these mediation skills put him at the vanguard in the quest for peace in the middle east. killing the count on algebra. ah, he was president joe biden promises 500000000 more doses. if corona virus bank seems to countries in need, ah ha everyone, i'm come all santa maria with the world news from al jazeera, the un general assembly secretary general antonio terrace, says the world must engage with the taliban. mending ties. france will send it back to back to washington after president spies and my crumbs smooth over a diplomatic spat. and the lava continues to flow from

a volcano in the spanish island of la palmer, destroying homes and covering towns in ash. ah. however, in the united states says it'll deny another half 1000000000 doses of the 5 that covert 900 vaccine to countries struggling with the pandemic. president joe biden, making that promise during a virtual corona virus summit on the sidelines of the un general assembly. my can, has this report accompanied by as un ambassador, president biden arrives to launch an unprecedented virtual cove at 1900 summit. he's joined by leaders from around the world to discuss, among other things, the vaccine gap between nations, the global shortage of oxygen, and the ways in which rich nations can help the poor. the u. s. has to date,

distributed 160000000 doses of vaccine to 100 countries. and more is to follow. the united states is buying another half 1000000000 doses of pfizer to donate to low and middle income countries around the world. this is another half 1000000000 doses that will all be shipped by this time next year and brings our total commitment to a donation of donated vaccines over $1100000000.00 vaccines to be donated. put another way for every one shot we've administered to dayton america. we have now committed to do 3 shots to the rest of the world. all on the call agree that fighting the pandemic is a global rather than national issue truck. it's the pledges of help. a reality check by the south african president of around 66000000000 vaccine. those is administered worldwide. only 2 percent of these have been administered in

africa. a continent of more than 1200000000 people. this must be unjust. and it also is immoral. well, leaders had pledged to vaccinate at least 70 percent of the world's population by next year. but as president trump suppose also pointed out, it is now september and not even 10 percent of the target has been reached. that despite the apparent awareness that nobody is safe, unless everybody is and still echoing the bleak message from the un secretary general and his opening address to the general assembly. the world is on a precipice. my kind of era at the united nations. well, health organization has been pressuring developed nations to hold off on booster shots until more of these 1st doses are made available to poor countries. as

a report by amnesty international as well, which shows the disparity, it says fewer than one percent of people in low income countries are fully vaccinated compared with 55 percent enrich states. amnesty also accuses vaccine manufacturers of putting profits before lives, saying that refusing to share doses or technology to enable more of the world to get their jobs. the right group wants 2000000000 doses for poor nations by the end of the year. different profess lawrence guston, faculty, director of the o'neill institute for national and global health. louis says there will be more nations needed to bridge that inequality gap. president biden is certainly done a lot more than western europe or canada or japan and other countries. u. s. allies see, he's done vastly more than other people have, but really is only a drop in the ocean, you know,

in order for us to actually achieve 70 percent coverage of the world's population. we're going to me need north of 10000000000 doses. and so $1100000000.00, which is biden's total commitment through the end of the street, an extra timber, is just not going to cut it. it just simply the math just to narrow it v issue actually, you know, we're, you know, this is a global pandemic. and the truth is, is that the glaring inequities that we've seen didn't just happened by accident they, there were a design choice by europe, the united states and other i, income countries. because we hoarded vaccines, we signed pre purchase agreements. and we created enormous scarcity. and so the rich have and the poor don't the rich live poor die. it's as simple as that.

but us regulated have approved booster shots of the 5 vaccine people over the age of 65 and high risk individuals will be eligible for a 3rd job. the booster can be administered 6 months after that initial to dose course of the bank seems completed. on to other news and permanent members of the un security council of met the secretary general antonio. to cherish to discuss afghanistan, ted says that the international community must engage with the taliban going forward. the group itself has been appealing for quick you and recognition as the new ruler of afghanistan, its appointed a new envoy to the un and requested he be allowed to speak out the general assembly kristin salumi with worn out from the un. we've been seeing intense diplomacy at the united nations on the situation in afghanistan, many meetings taking place, including one between foreign ministers of the permanent 5 members of the security council and the secretary general of the un, antonio gutierrez,

the united kingdom chair, that meeting the new foreign minister liz trust said, going into it, that her goal was to get china and russia to take an international approach to the situation there. and what the council is weighing is whether or not to recognize the taliban of the united nations. and the one hand, there's concern about legitimizing group and a government which has members still on the international sanctions. less to a group that wasn't recognized when they controlled the country from 1996 to 2001 their treatment of women and girls and ethnic minorities very much a concern for countries in the united nations here. but on the other hand, the united nations is warning that there could be an economic collapse in afghanistan if the country is not allowed access to the international banking system. and that could make it even more of

a threat to international peace and security. we've got to hear a little bit of what the secretary general told the members of the p 5 in that meeting is up to the you see follow within the leadership. and we see different behaviors in different parts of the country. and the several contradictions between what is sometimes what happens in some areas of the country. now, it's not likely that the taliban will be given a platform to speak during the general debate. the new ambassador would need to be recognised by the credentials committee. the credentials committee doesn't meet until november. the committee consists of 9 member states among them, the united states, china and russia. so these countries will have to deal with this issue before too long from full sentence ambassador bank to the us after president manuel macro and

spoke to joe biden. the, to come to their diplomatic dispute, made a phone call by the micron agreeing. france should have been consulted about a security packs, which the u. s. is formed with britain and australia under the lines, australia will turn it back on a french submarine deal in favor of american nuclear power subs biden and micro planned to meet in october orphan natasha butler in paris. this is micron has drawn some notable concessions from joe biden, was been nearly a week since a diplomatic crisis, a rock did. and finally, the french president, the minute micro has spoken to the u. s. leader joe biden, in a phone call that we understand was initiated by the white house. well, the white house and the lisa palace both put out simultaneously a statement. and if you read through the may really seems as if joe biden is saying many of the things the president might crawl, wanted say on the public records,

you have, for example, a biden. admitting that more open consultation with allies would have benefited the situation. also saying that the, the u. s. was counting on french and european engagement in the, in the pacific region bite. and also saying that the u. s. supported stronger you defense. that's quite interesting because the whole idea of bolstering you defense has been somewhat controversial with the u. s. in the past, it was certainly something that ruffled the feathers of donald trump, but thought again is by to make. and you can say a confession to the french person tomorrow, micro macro, who for a long time has been saying that that you must bolster its defense and strategic capacities. because the you can no longer necessarily rely on the united states as

a partner on the international stage. well, the 2 leaders it seen have agreed to meet in europe in october. we don't have a date yet, but i think what is clear from this very cool is that both micro and bite and look, they know it's in the common interests of both the us and frauds, to improve the relationship and rebuild some of that trust. it doesn't mean of course that the french are not going to remain upset for, for some while yet, but i think it is clear that both want to move forward. of the 6000 people have now been forced from their homes in the palm on one of the spanish canary islands. parts of the area have been engulfed in lava from a volcano which erupt on sunday. many people have lost their homes, and there is anger too, after a minister appeared to encourage so cool disaster tourists to visit with nicholas hawk reports from la palmer. this is jose hernandez. her mom says house in the

a look at the weather across the middle east and levant, and we've got low pressure across the black sea that's bringing some weather to turkey and georgia. some of that rain is trickling into lebanon and into iran, but it is largely hot and dry and settled for much of the region. the shema when have died, dom that blows down from iraq into the gulf states. so there is plenty of sunshine around with the temperatures down slightly in places like guitar. 7 though is going to attempt to fit in the high thirty's in the days to come. now it is feeling cooler on those coastal areas of oman, thanks to a breeze blowing in from the sea and in western areas of yemen, we are seeing one or 2 showers that join up with the heavy rains across as central parts of africa, the tropics, and seen some very torrential rains, which of course flooding in places like south sudan and more recently, uganda where we are going to see those storms intensify rolling across the democratic republic of congo. and we could see more flooding from that. the rains

are also expected to get rather heavy around the gulf of guinea. we could see flooding where they do rumble across towards the west. but for the south that is looking fina and dryer, the temperatures down in cape town, but it'll pick back up in johannesburg with sunshine. the weather sponsored by cattle airways, boated world's best airline of 2021 on era online. be part of the debate or people . the ocean is our identity and the source of well being. we are the ancient when no help, they get off the table shoot inside atmosphere. people are demoralized, they're exhausted, and many health care workers are experiencing p t f. d like symptom, jump into this dream and julian global community. if you're online on youtube right now, you can be part of this conversation as well. this stream announces era, ah,

ah ah, this is out of the reading to the top stories. the united states will donate half a 1000000000 more doses that defines the vaccine to developing nations. president joe biden, making that pledge a virtual curve at $900.00 summit on the sidelines of the un general assembly. the town of buttons appealing for quick un recognition as the new rulers of afghanistan group appointed a new envoy to the united nations and requested he be allowed to speak gentlemen. and more than 6000 people have now left their homes. that volcanic eruption continues on one of the canary items massive flow of love. continuing to make its way across la palmer. we're looking at a new report which says, some of the richest countries in the world are failing children at refugee camps

and syria. save the children, says the situation is only worsening. and $62.00 children have died of different courses so far this year that he has more agencies say, an estimated $40000.00 children are trapped in the l hall. and raj refugee camps in ne, syria. every day is a struggle for survival and the statistics tell a grand story, save the children says at least 2 have died every week since the start of the year . some were killed from avoidable illnesses, others by fires. poor sanitation malnutrition and even murder. living conditions are tough and daily outbreaks of violence are making them worse. they are witnessing so much trauma around them. they're living through it every day. and we're really concerned about what this means for children growing up in these conditions. it's simply no place for a child to grow up. and so we're calling strongly on government to repatriate their

children, bring them back to their countries and give them accounts for a proper life. cause to re, patrick, the foreign nationals among the camp. 60000 residents are not new, at least 30000 are from iraq and 10000 are from other countries. many are families of iso fighters, or those who lived under their control before the armed group was defeated in the region 3 years ago. some countries have taken back their citizens, but many have not. since 2017, nearly 1200 children have been repatriated almost 59 percent of them went home in 2019. but repatriation declined in 2020. and so far this year, there have been only 14 the united nations as calling for action from the nearly 60 governments who are believed to have nationals in the camps. but with differences on policy,

possible security threats. and the lack of political will many are reluctant. each of those countries have their own local situation with their own complexities in terms of political environments. so this is something that each government is having to work through as they consider the restoration of their nationals. the 2nd level i would say the legal one. so in many countries as well, there are complexities in terms of the actual nationality of these children and mothers. 80 percent of the camps residents are women and children. 65 percent of them are under the age of 18. they are vulnerable, not just the dire conditions, but also to the threat of radicalization in camps described as the most dangerous in the world. and with the slow pace of repatriation. it will take decades before they can leave that there was either one of the angler, michael's landmarks, decisions during her 16 year long term as germany's johns,

free under 60000 are currently fully employed around 55000 are enrolled in training programs and 10000 studying at universities, i would say many of those who know arrived are on 2015, i know part of the german society and with regard to labor, mac integration, it went better than most expected due to local decision to accept a large group of refugees writing parties like the a f d deltona t for germany, florida during the last election 4 years ago. they are predicted to win around 12 percent began in elections on sunday with merkel leven office on us as hoping the next government will continue to support him and the refugee. those who have been successful agree that it has been a helping hand from german friends who pointed them in the right direction. that estimate the difference. step, fasten al jazeera cyber in the united states. they will provide more than

new measures go beyond the steps i took back in july when he sacked the prime minister prose, the parliament and assumed executive authority, his extra powers now include being able to issue legislative texts by decree, can appoint the cabinet and consider the policy direction. we heard from and gallow who's the senior member of the in the party, which is the biggest political force in that frozen parliament. he told us the president's actions anisa meant his one man rule. mister a, it has put, he said right now in the legislation, he's even isolated teams and from the legislation from the constitution. and he's even referring to the premier of the constitution while in total contradiction the content of that. so right now we are in a, in a declared coup to stop with no possibility for any far fetched to probation. so we are in that and the can use a community,

what is it to them in the international community? they need to be right now that there is no way of interpretation. this is a cou, a self declared, coo ukrainian president voldemort zelinski has promised a strong response. softer is my senior aide, survived, and apparent assassination attempt. gun shots were fired a vehicle. he was traveling and south of the capital, give police say more than 10 bullets hit that vehicle and wound the driver though it's not known who carried out the shooting. sedans, military leaders blamed tuesdays qu, attempt on politicians who they say have turned a blind eye to what people really need to top leaders of the countries transitional council held a news conference on wednesday to denounce the attempt to take over 21 offices and a number of soldiers had been arrested. they tried to take control of several institutions including state t, v, and radio stations. there's a marine traffic jam at 2 of the biggest ports in the united states. dozens of

congo ships waiting to enter los angeles and long beach, california has been a search and demand for goods with the us economy opening up. in the aftermath of the pandemic, there is also a shortage of trucks and drivers to actually collect the goods. once they clear customs at the ports, which is of course, adding to the backlog. now every year, going back to $1768.00 burtons royal academy in london, has held the longest, open submission exhibition in the world, the kind of event that'll bring you unknown, and blockbuster office together under one roof. due to the pandemic. the summer exhibition was for the 1st time moved to the autumn, and the fog has been to have a look. it is a temple of britain's art establishment, but under the austere gaze of old masters, a scrum of color, jostling for attention. the theme if they see a show is reclaiming magic, celebrating the joy of making stuff. thousands of entries to sifted through by

a committee of academy missions, including famous artists and architects, is the reason why complete unknowns can find themselves sharing war space with mega stars. and it's nearly all on sale for hundreds or hundreds of thousands of dollars . it's really a joyful experience and we get around $1415000.00 submissions out of which we then choose the works that the academicians, the committee that put together the semi exhibition team the best. but ultimately, of course, we have to make a selection so that when we're just under 1400 works in the exhibition looming over the gallery. this monumental piece by world famous german artists. anselm keifer, whose work grapples with the bleak aftermath of the 2nd world war tucked beneath it, family picking noses by colon camera. many of the work selected by black artists stealing with complex colonial histories, all on display in a building erected at the height of britain's trans atlantic slave trade. and this

piece, i do love among them celebrated artists, hugh lock. he rather than knocking controversial statues of their pedestals, some others them, and garish regalia. i've always said if i wasn't an artist, i would have been a historian. enhance my interest in, in statues, in the history of statues, in history of who gets commemorated. and why, you know, who do we put up there to celebrate? and do they deserve to be there is the question. it's big, it's bold, it's brush in places the works, encourage us to peer into the minds of the artist, whether it be an established, famous painter, or an up and coming amateur. this is a declaration, a manifesto, even whatever you throw it is. art is buck around every corner on every wall. the word godes view is into thinking. maybe i could do that,

which is precisely what 9 year old lucas greenfield did. his work was chosen to feature in the academies, youths show, show the mailing it's when my head came and told me, he bought me out for me and they're like, it, it felt really cool that my work interacting last by for this is a rough and tumble exhibition, a reminder that creativity comes in all manner of shapes and sizes. the falcon al jazeera london, ah, pop up here and also the era, and these are the headlines. the united states will donate half a 1000000000 more doses of the fines the vaccine to developing nations survive and made that pledge of virtual cove in 1900 summit on the sidelines of the un general assembly. united states is buying another half 1000000000 doses of pfizer to donate to.
