1:05 pm
to come back to moscow and so she also has a resolve not to be afraid either to come out today despite the mass arrests that we've been seeing of peaceful protesters and i think this these protests over the past few weeks and the support of say no viney are a threat to the kremlin now especially because many of the protesters that i have been speaking to over the last few weeks also been saying you know this is about much more than alex a nonbinding actually this is about the accusations of corruption that he's leveled at the ruling elite including at the mere putin himself and they've been telling me that they want to live in a different country a more democratic country a country without corruption and and so it seems that this is about much more than just the the trial going on behind me not only sure when in moscow thank you. the u.n. security council is preparing to meet in an emergency session to discuss the
1:06 pm
military coup in myanmar governments around the world have condemned to guess today seizure of power the u.s. is threatening to re-impose sanctions to try and force the generals to stand down myanmar's former to facto leader aung sang suu kyi has been detained and hundreds of officials are confined inside government housing compounds. calm amidst the political storm. people in the city of yangon adjusting to a new reality of military rule a state of emergency has been declared for one year despite calls for resistance by former defacto leader aung sang suu kyi residents of me on mars the largest city are hesitant. we've waited for 72 hours but people won't go on the street in protest everyone knows the military has guns and they are used to shooting people i think people will find another way to protest. the war
1:07 pm
we are very timid and we can't say anything i'm afraid of them. many international leaders have expressed alarm over the coup the u.s. underscored its the port for democracy and me on mar also known as burma after saying it was quote taking note of those who stand with the people of burma in this difficult hour. i think it's a message to all countries in the region and countries who you know will be asked to respond or to consider what the appropriate response will be in reaction to the events that happened over the past couple of days in the capital naif hundreds of lawmakers are confined in government housing complexes which are being guarded by soldiers. the military said seizing power was necessary
1:08 pm
after the government failed to act on claims of election fraud. on facebook the ruling national league for democracy party appealed to the military to free those detained and to honor november's election results which handed the n l d a landslide victory. they were the 2nd democratic elections in myanmar after a transition from decades of military rule now there are fears the country could slide back to its old ways. an earlier journalist dave has been covering myanmar for several years told us why many believe economic sanctions on the country are unlikely to have much effect well if the past is any indication of what could happen in the future while the economic sanctions are only likely to have a significant impact on any decisions that the generals make case in point this country during the military dictatorship that ruled the country until about 10
1:09 pm
years ago there were crippling economic sanctions from the west and most of the population it lived in absolute poverty because of it but the generals and their cronies in the business elite were still rich now you could have targeted economic sanctions where you just pinpoint the economic interest of a few generals or many generals but some of them already facing those type of targeted sanctions including the commander in chief of the military senior general not on one he's already facing targeted sanctions and he's. when for with the coup on monday so again any economic sanctions are likely to have little impact on the decisions that the generals make they would have already made these calculations before going forward the coo now a key player in the us well that would be china they were the best friend economically of the old dictatorship that ruled this country until 10 years ago if they back up economically the new regime well that would give the generals even less incentive to reverse to reverse course and that was journalist steve cohen

1:12 pm
it's very easy to adopt the sport sold to a field hospital more difficulty is too poor to incite the human resources foot to run. these kind of. doctors from germany are among those preparing to work at this temporary corona hospital they are part of the medical team from the german military that is set to arrive in part about on wednesday lispunds largest hospital right across the street from the university campus has been under massive strain for days almost all of portugal's intensive care beds are occupied and there is an acute shortage of equipment the pressure on parts of god's health system seems to become unbearable ambulances often have to wait for several hours in front of the hospital before their patients can be at mit and many fear that in the coming days numbers will continue to grow. joe out ok
1:13 pm
it's getting things set up for the stuff off the makeshift clinic he had mobile homes installed for the medics to take breaks during their long exhausting shifts mobile home project began 2 weeks ago and is already supported by more than 200 volunteers and 50 vehicles. i should i couldn't what work here is pretty emotional last week a doctor knocked on my door and wanted to thank us she said she often desperate i think in addition to a place to sleep the medical stuff sometimes need support $4.00 to $10.00 precisely limiting because each day the volunteers think that solidarity is the one positive thing to have come out of the crisis and the fact that germany and other european countries are now offering help is giving an international dimension to that feeling of solidarity. and john philip schultz who produced that report joins us
1:14 pm
now from lisbon a young fellow tell us a little bit more about what's going on there what are your impressions i think it's no exaggeration to say that the situation is really dramatic i have been talking to a lot of people that say we are actually dealing with a humanitarian disaster. and doctors are working around the clock increasingly desperate i have seen ambulance drive us from all over the country coming to the hotspot at this point trying to have been whatever way they can one of the most disturbing and probably most symbolic because i have seen. long lines of ambulances and throngs of the hospitals it shows that the health system is not at the verge of collapse and some parts that are already collapsed that. help is said to be on the way from other countries and what's the latest on that well true airplanes from germany will be landing and respond to borrow one of them will carry $26.00
1:15 pm
specialists among them a medical doctor from the military another one will carry equipment and ventilator has a hospital bed and so on the equipment is really urgently needed because there are reports that a lot of production oxygen is that running low and medical 1st know will be in flights and several hospitals here in the capital how is that news been received and portugal what have you been hearing what he's been seeing. it's been a big topic here and of course the portuguese very right but at the same time it's clear that 26 medical experts cannot see the crisis it's going to be a beginning it's going to be a very important symbolic gesture but it's can only the beginning and the portuguese have been all with the constructive part of europe and of course they are hoping for more support and have already offered the port as they were
1:16 pm
nervous expect that there will be more european engagement in the coming that t.v. is yuan philip schultz from lisbon thank you. so it's german chancellor angela merkel has said that corona virus vaccines will be offered to everyone in germany by the end of the summer meantime she was speaking after talks with key players involved in the vaccine trial including the firms producing them delays have dogged to pull the plug charmant and the rollout of vaccines and map all herself has come under fire for allowing the european commission to take the lead in securing the shots our response she says that the vaccine supplies will remain tight for the next few months but at the pace of vaccination will pick up soon does the business ended by the end of the 3rd who were to decide at the end of the summer we'll be able to offer every sieges and a vaccine can and that's that's the manufactories and also told us today it's
1:17 pm
something that they can feel seeing can always occur during production of it all and they also will have no prior experience of things but i think the numbers from the different quarters overall rule ready very relevant. and let's bring in our chief political correspondent melinda crane melinda walk us through the messaging here it sounds like merkel is saying this is a marathon not a sprint. absolutely it was very clear from yesterday's vaccine summit that the supply that that of the vaccine will remain tight for at least another 8 weeks and only begin to ease up in the 2nd quarter of this year and moreover it was very clear that german leaders are looking far beyond this year alone the health minister said that he wants to ensure that adequate stocks of vaccine are in place throughout 2022 as well and the chancellor went even further
1:18 pm
saying that she could foresee it a possibility that we might have to keep on vaccinating against coded every year in something resembling the flu vaccine campaigns and she said she also wanted to point out that no matter how much vaccine is on hand if mutations occur that in fact render the current version of the virus not amenable to vaccination then we would have to start all over again so there is a realistic messaging from the chance there about this being a long haul absolutely you know and the one thing is the availability of the vaccine the other thing is the willingness actually of the population to to go and take it to go and get the shot walk us through the current climate right now and whether it appears to to that enough people will want to get it voluntarily in
1:19 pm
order to achieve that critical herd immunity that's necessary. right so we heard the chancellor saying all adults who want to be vaccinated will be able to be vaccinated by the end of the summer but the key word in that sentence is what how many do want to be vaccinated well there most of the most recent polls show that from 63 to 67 percent of adult german say they do want the vaccine and that is a significant increase over mid december where we were looking at more like half the population also medical experts say that they expect to see that number go up as people see their friends and neighbors and family members getting vaccinated and see that the side effects are limited or non-existent and interestingly enough the willingness to vaccinate correlates quite closely with the levels of trust in the government as a whole so clearly the government viewed this backseat and summit also as
1:20 pm
a trust building measure to get the information out to people about why it is important to get vaccinated one community there especially eager to reach medical workers interesting lee enough many of them have said that they would hold back in getting vaccinated until they see how things are working and there's also a lot of discussion here now whether special privileges should be given it to those who do get the vaccine with a pretty large majority of german saying they don't want to see that kind of to class system. chief political correspondent melinda crane breaking it down for us thank you so much. and here are some of the other developments in the pandemic investigations investigators excuse me with the world health organization are searching for the origins of the corona virus at an animal clinic in china it could provide insight into how the virus might have crossed from animals to humans

1:23 pm
unprecedented amount of evidence including at least 2 100000 digital tipoffs from various social media platforms. at least 300 people are under active investigation and at least 150 have been arrested so far officials say this was just the 1st face of what they say is an investigation of unprecedented scope the investigation will shift a little bit from low hanging fruit off people let's say who filled themself attacking and getting into the capital committing one crime or another it would shift now into a more complex and. complicated way why's that because now the f.b.i. will look into conspiracy in organization in organized crime how much was organized of this attack what was the suit the level of sophistication in preparing for the attack and who was involved. federal authorities say they're in

repression. any regime can use repression as a way to control opposition there will be more arrests and they will be moved by this i mean in the next phase the rate of violence and the rate of arrests will increase not decrease. are there a lot of detainees facing severe charges like terrorism. yes everyone arrested is charged with terrorism. will the government prevail. prevail. they claim the state is eliminating terrorism but terrorism will only increase because of the state's extreme violence. that's not the way to eliminate terrorism this will only increase terrorism in egypt i predict will suffer for years to come because of the way security forces dealt with the muslim brotherhood the. minister

1:48 pm
quite although i mean i predict that you'll be sentenced to at least 10 years. they want the majority of activists or those involved in human rights activities to be in prison so be prepared for it. as you say you're a human rights and women's rights activist so they have their eye on them and that's why i think the verdict will be severe it won't be lenient 5 years would be an acquittal in this case misha encompassing the model for the lead because of what i think an acquittal would be like condemning the army so they're not going to acquit us i think i've started to prepare myself for whatever happens the most important thing is that you guys come to visit me. we'll come visit you we don't abandon anyone all of you. will be there all the time you'll be sick of us. god is with you and will be with us don't worry. these are really dark
1:49 pm

1:50 pm
keep these with even case someone is arrested hide them in your pockets and pass them around if someone is mistreated they'll know who to call we have lawyers that's why i have it all for the past 2 weeks i've had an uneasy feeling. my brother joined the army and i'm always a protest. it's possible that i'll find my brother standing there with his weapon ready to use against me. and he could be the one who drags me away of arrests and tortures me or my friends he could fire a bullet at me mike. kill it could be my brother and the holy. hand

1:52 pm
side those who believe the military backed interim government has saved the revolution. on the other those who maintain their hopes of democracy and not. someone's been shot ok so. what happened to you. with that i was. going to. those protesting the military fact take care of those with full speed dispersed by the police armed with new goals putting on all thrice protest as well as with tear gas the kids are we going to be strong today we knew this was going to happen we will rise to the occasion come on we have a car coming in that. we have to get out of for.
1:53 pm
only god can help us now. was. we're taking to the streets to see our revolution through to the end but after 3 years the situation has gotten worse. every time we go out and protest we think it's going to get better but the only thing increasing is the number of people dying bloody deaths we are being killed off all put in jail every time we demonstrate for a new president the new one attacks and kills more of us then the last thing as.
1:54 pm
bad as that we've been in a street war for the past 2 hours and they've arrested many young protesters those not carrying cc's photo were taken away has sisi become a symbol of freedom and those without his picture of the opposition which is freedom that we have seen. as long as there are people like you behind us mama will never give up or despair and i want you to know one thing no man is going to be our government whoever brings bread freedom and social justice to egypt i will respect him but fear and violence will not intimidate us terrorism is not the muslim brotherhood or the street likes the most dangerous terrorists are the ones who lie arrest and humiliate people no one has been put on trial yet for murdering the egyptian people. they charged convict and. lesson stayed.
