1:03 pm
to be seen as weak. a male. neither do they armored tanks patrol the streets as demonstrators greet them with the 3 finger salute that has come to stand for democracy as soldiers bolster the police many civilians fear their assets will be seized with access to banks partially restricted. you know maybe i don't know terry escaping our money in the bank by force it's unjust isn't it they're limiting the withdrawal amount aren't they creating a riot. people here face deep penalties for opposing the coup those who obstruct the military or police from carrying out their duties could be imprisoned for up to 20 years the military insists it intends to hand back power after holding new elections there were date for such a vote has not yet been announced. and we are now joined by the u.n.

1:05 pm
and very senior situation and you have warrants of severe consequences if there is violence if there is this crackdown by the military what does that mean i mean what is the international community's plan here. well internally in jamar i. think armed organisations would not allow these. also many counties already started to implement targeted sanctions countries will probably follow i will have probably also soon to grieve back and security council of it when the general asked the of the un and i see that you need around the world these wherry important that they don't accept this you mentioned unity but within the un human rights council russia and china are already rejected
1:06 pm
a resolution condemning the school are you concerned that you will not have unity in the security council that you might not be able to bring sanctions forward. well there are big players who are not really. protesting against us who. we are also learning that the majority of member states are against so jamar we'll go in a certain isolation if the team knew to duty so therefore it can't be in the interest of the myanmar army to continue and we should see also that it was the 1st time since i took up my monthly goal that we had as a statement from the security council which was accepted by russia and china i want to come back to our son suchi now because there's also been some organizing among parliamentarians in name are members of her party the n l d p have set up
1:07 pm
a committee on facebook we're seeing here the page here it's called the c r p h it says it is the sole legitimate government of myanmar and they say that they've reached out to the un and other multilateral institutions for recognition so misspoken i want to ask you can you confirm that they have contacted you and would you be willing to support and recognize this group. i asked as special envoy who tried to negotiate scenes yes really yes now i mean contact everybody and also the people in your heart they know me because before you call we pandemic crises i was it did. 8 times a year and stayed always around so i know everybody there clearly i'm a contact piece them that's also the reason i would like to travel as possible
1:08 pm
to me on march week she's a possible because i have a one year release and i could travel but clearly i have to make also appropriate the sions for my receipt will have to leave it there the u.n. special envoy on me and mark christina shrine of boehner thank you so much for joining us here on. now a special flight carrying around half a 1000000 doses of china as a sign of farm coronavirus vaccine has arrived in hungary hungary will be the 1st european union country to administer both the chinese shot and russia sputnik the vaccine the government has granted emergency approvals to the vaccines by passing approval from medical regulators after criticizing the pace of the e.u.'s vaccine roll out. hungary is going it alone. last friday it became the 1st country in the european union to administer russia's sputnik vaccine
1:09 pm
starting with a batch of nearly 3000 doses. now another 1st in the e.u. on tuesday this shipment of the chinese sina for maxie arrived in budapest. this is a clear break with the e.u.'s vaccine rollout plan which officials in hungry have repeatedly criticized for being too slow. prime minister viktor orban said hungary is taking matters into its own hands. we can't stop the virus without vaccines because it will always come back in new ways that's why our country's most important task is to get as many vaccines as possible. not later as promised by brussels but quickly. the russian and chinese vaccines were granted emergency approval in hungary but they have yet to receive the green light from the u.s.
1:10 pm
regulatory authority the e m a. they haven't been reviewed by hungriest medicines regulator either instead getting approval via government decree that's drawn criticism from scientist the prime minister orban has been looking elsewhere for inspiration. neighboring serbia which is not an e.u. member was the 1st country in europe to administer china's seen a farm job this helped make serbia the country with the 2nd fastest vaccine rolled out in europe after the u.k. . in hungary warp and said he hopes to inoculate 2500000 people by easter about one in 400 gary and thanks to the chinese vaccine if successful hungry physician to go it alone could further undermine the e.u.'s common vaccination strategy. our brussels bureau chief alexander phenomena is following this story for us hi aleksandra hungary is now pursuing its own vaccine strategy because it says the e.u. roll roll out as we heard there is just going too slowly is that allowed. yes it is
1:11 pm
member states are allowed to purchase vaccines outside of the contracts which the european union signed collectively for over $2000000000.00 and with american and european pharmaceutical companies so hungry it's not violating any agreements however its decision to approve and minister chinese and russian vaccines has drawn some criticism from the european union which is worried of yet another example of or by its government going its way and trying to undermine. and we just have to remember that the european union's decision to procure big scenes together and to coordinate their roll out and european union was about a u. rope's solidarity yeah alexander what do you think that hungary's european partners
1:12 pm
make of this. well hungary is not the only member states that is struggling to get enough vaccines for its citizens so when. it's about saving lives i think that our member states understand that at the same time brussels also knows that it is also about politics there will be elections in hungary next year and oregon is under a lot of pressure to reopen the economy he has been at odds with the european union over a number of issues over its hardline stance on immigration over the rule of law corruption and to media freedom and hungry so his way of trying to do seeking closer ties with russia and china is also his way of saying we can find partners elsewhere and that has been criticized also in the european parliament with some members saying accusing orbán of using big scenes as a political game to. weaken the european union and also did you think we
1:13 pm
could see other e.u. member states follow hungary's lead here on the vaccine rola well i think we cannot rule that out czech prime minister bobbish for example visited budapest not long ago to discuss russian and chinese vaccines and even have you waits in europe such as germany seem to be open to this idea of buying russian or chinese vaccines once they are approved in the european union so i think it's really depends on whether the european union is able as it is promising to speed up big scene roll out our brussels bureau chief alexander phenomena joining us thank you very much. now there are growing concerns about fast spreading mutations of the corona virus one of the most transmissible variants was 1st discovered in south africa the country has passed the use of the oxford astra zeneca vaccine in response and the government is
1:14 pm
now saying it wants to return a 1000000 doses or share them with other african states because of concerns that the vaccine is less effective against that variant that originated in south africa the country has been hard hit by the pentatonic with about 1500000 cases and just under 50000 deaths. for some perspective on the story we can speak now to dr john and the kendah song he's the director of the africa centers for disease control and prevention and he's joining us from ethiopia's capital addis ababa dr canvas on welcome to g.w. i want to ask you 1st about that piece of news that south africa has paused the use of the asteroid belt zeneca vaccine and even wants to return a 1000000 doses to the manufacturer and we have to say that the country has 40 percent right now of africa's reported coded $1000.00 cases how concerned are you about south africa vaccination rollout. so that tank you for having me on
1:15 pm
your program 1st before let me just say very clearly that that doesn't make a vaccine is very safe and it has been proven to be if your case shows in and in the context where u.s. tested and also want to say that i mean south africa has been extremely foot come in and very transparent in sharing their findings as well as included in dead end if you question of the new variant so having said that i think we are learning about a lot about this new virus and we are learning how we roll out vaccines africa c.d.c. have issued guidelines on how to use the i started as an it guy vaccine 1st of all we have seen that in countries that have seen x. fence if the spread of this variant that they may consider not using that vaccine meant that the vaccine is t. very useful in other parts of the continent where they have not reported occurrence
1:16 pm
of that variant i think it was should be very clear that the vaccine is very safe if vaccine is if you case shows in areas that do not have that variant and lastly that just studied at south africa. reported is 200 and a lot more information will be reviewed from went to south africa to finally complete that study you know in a comprehensive manner so i just want to make sure that i understand your position here you do recommend the astra zeneca vaccine is safe but it might not be effective against this specific variant is that correct. that is a very accurate characterization he might not be effective because again as i said there are studies that south africa santis presented to us with a limit to study on about 2000 bodies from the studies on green does way south africa said temporarily suspend the use that you knew stop using it but they were just kind of precautionary measure to be sure that did you know to do an extensive
1:17 pm
vaccination using a vaccine that is no responded to it very and dr king a song if we look at the broader picture here there have also been some studies indicating that some of the data that we have on cases and deaths in africa on a whole is not reliable because there just isn't the capacity for mass testing are you concerned that covert 1000 might actually be far more widespread in africa than we know. so that think of it 19 he said values that is spread in very rapidly and we have to i mean what we now know and a contingent as they reported cases based on more regular p.c. test the police there is chain reaction to has made on days to make the exposure because we have seen in from serologic data that many more people would have been exposed to these various we caught in the reporting by the murder
1:18 pm
classes which is a good start that so i think that is one part of the story the 2nd part of that story is that. question is that i did more deaths that occur and we have not documented i think the answer is no we have seen how many deaths more and more deaths of a could do in the 2nd wave of the pandemic done in the 1st wave and those deaths have been record it and captured it best to the best of our knowledge i think it is there an extensive number of people are dying and not reported i think that this is absolutely not the case on the continent ok and i have to ask you about vaccines as well because we know we've heard that there's been some bickering over vaccine supplies here in europe and how many countries how many doses which country gets and you have actually said that there could be a moral catastrophe if not enough vaccines are provided to africa what do you mean by that. so would we mean by that is that we should really make sure that
1:19 pm
we respect the principle of what we stated. when this pandemic started that we needed to express solidarity and cooperation dr dress the spine they make and we also all collectively state that dependency. infection anyway would be a trip everywhere and it were i think from that perspective we have very concerned as a continent that we have not started vaccinating at the same level of death countries in europe and united states have vaccinated and we also learned from history that in 2009 the h one n one pandemic vaccines were already at variable in developing countries after country dependent it was over and if we beat as a continent experience related to drugs access to drugs against hiv aids that started occurring in 1996 then to take 10 years for those drugs to him finally
1:20 pm
be i mean is that in africa and between that peter that is between 19062006 1000000 africans they died was really. more a catastrophe had a time when we don't want these 2 to repeat the same without i nothing we can easily move towards him or a catastrophe even we do not collectively make sure that africa has is that it there right shares of vaccines should vaccinate its population and it timely manner and important message there from dr jan john and congrats on director and thing africa centers for disease control and prevention thank you very much for joining us. you're welcome. ok let's move on now to some other headlines from around the world russian opposition figure alexina vollmer is back in court where he's being tried for allegedly defaming a world war 2 veteran his supporters say the case is politically motivated the

1:29 pm
up. on t.w. . it's about. billions. it's about power. it's about the foundation of the world order the new silk road. china wants to expand its influence with this trade network also in europe conflicts are inevitable the consequences unpredictable mean can afford it ever since the chinese investor got involved here our situation has changed because for the poor it was privatized a work was much better and easier. china is promising its partners rich
1:30 pm
but in europe there's a sharp warning whoever accept money from the new superpower will become dependent on it the commitment of the shaking of the chinese state has a lot of money at its disposal. and that's how it's expanding and asserting its status and position in the world because the fish if obama was making. china's gateway to europe start feb 19th on d w. i would say that we grew up in that cults and a society that runs itself very similar to north korea. i keep a fine garden has left the cult as he calls it he no longer lives in an ultra orthodox jewish community in a fine garden has established
1:31 pm
a new jewish life for himself in germany. it's a decision that very strictly observant jews like you checked on principle. enough i'm sure the if you do not live for god but has no kind of life that will you live like an animal without any sense or purpose and it is. but more and more young adults choose no longer want to devote their lives to god and surprisingly many of them a draw on. the it's friday evening the start of the jewish day of rest and celebration. there. the key to find god is a rabbi saving his leading prayers for a very special community many of the juicy have quit ultra-orthodox communities in
1:32 pm
the united states or israel. and chimney there trying to lead their own lives attempting to establish a more relaxed relationship to god now with the help of rabbi find out. that it. often soonish even the people who don't want to remain observant are still interested in these traditions these are targets on. for 5 months to give a new spiritual highland a new family to those who have left their own orthodox communities. he regularly bites people to cook and eat together for the chabad cuisine a community often means a loss of contact with their family this is where vine gotten can seem everyone is welcome here. is common in the mission for everyone is invited to come here it's a mix of x. orthodox israelis germans liberal jews orthodox jews conservative jews non jews
1:33 pm
everyone is invited with either you or. wish you we're open to everyone. is infallible from here. as this is traditional get filtered fish. oh heck we haven't got any garlic if. i select that color of. akiva find god knows the dust the plate those who leave everything behind 6 years ago he left an orthodox community alone in germany he felt completely lost he hopes to spare others that experience. as a dust buster view here in berlin i lacked what we have here had me presented him 1000000000 defi that's why i decided to open something myself for something. that. has become a point of contact for young people who want to break out of the strict ultra orthodox way of life without however abandoning jewish traditions.
1:34 pm
that. people might say that rabbi find gardens credo for his community is live and let live believe and let others believe. the. thing that is because i think it doesn't matter whether you believe in god or not and you don't have to believe in god to lead a jewish life to celebrate shabat observe religious holidays to keep our pound traditions the food the music. was on it on the left here has only just arrived in germany. it took moshe and his friend dive at least to break with their strict religious lives and with their families friend. the to a a grave. there was. a
1:35 pm
very. different. was going to go to. jerusalem not far from the city's famous on town is the world that moshe barnett has turned his back on. the ultra-orthodox district of missionary many people here are descended from holocaust survivors they settled here after the 2nd world war. originally the members of strictly observant communities made up just a small percentage of the population in uni found a jewish state now days they count for 30 percent of jerusalem's inhabitants.
1:36 pm
huge crowd is one of them unlike the ultra-orthodox families of moshe barnett and others he is prepared to give us a glimpse of life usually close to outsiders crouse and his wife esther who doesn't want to appear before the camera live in a tiny flat with at 18 children their daily life is dominated by praying in religious study this is the life that the newcomers that rabbi find gotten welcomes to germany have fled from. now but the share the meaning of life if consists of serving god of the whole day every day every hour. the things that you do with a clear goal in mind of the best things about it of the day also. the easiest of lives feel as if you do not live for god that is no kind of life. you live like an animal without any sense or perfect down. every single
1:37 pm
aspect of every day life is regulated you all issues checking the black-eyed peas the insects they will be eaten and rush hashanah he wants to avoid any impurity blemish in the start of the jewish new year. that. you have. by my fear is dominated by faith and superstition. a troubled young man from the neighborhood knocks at the door the community has advised him to seek help from yalit strauss. krauss and to remove the evil lie with the lead pouring ritual. that little bit. there. i just there. was a. he milt's lead in water in a pot held over the young man's head which according to tradition helped in cases
1:38 pm
like this one. that. it is impossible to say how many commandments that we have to go in 24 hours you follow thousands of them there are $613.00 commandments laid down in the torah but there are tens of thousands of others. the ultra-orthodox lifestyle led by cross has barely changed in centuries everything revolves around god the modern world the outside world is mostly with god it is a threat. to children's education is largely religious science or history do not feature on the curriculum girls and boys i'm married off young and are expected to have large families.
1:39 pm
the internet is seen as a hotbed of c. that's why smartphones of have beaten only old style cell phones are allowed. i never heard of it i believe we aren't extreme it's because the world is deteriorating so quickly that they say we are extreme we're not extreme at all i would say we are upstanding people. all the others are leaning a bit to the left or of become the general that they look down at us we're not extreme at all we're the most upstanding people that exist optimum. i am a have it all. and it will most all troll the dogs jews in me assure him live from welfare payments in donations. in his wife help out in the kitchen twice a week so they can feed their 18 children. that give off a little bit of
1:40 pm
a challenge to their daughters up to lend a hand from an early age training for their role as housewife and mother when i grow up i know that i need the key to the slaughter house whites are you there they want your bike out when it comes to the slaughterhouse i hope somebody is going to be there and will open up a need to pick up a chicken o'clock am and give him the k. for now it will get back to you in half an hour so. life is strictly regulated according to religious commandments and traditions that have thousands of years old this gives a sense of stability to many people. but a growing number of young ultra-orthodox jews are unhappy with this regimented life and feel too constrained. krauss is sure that his children will not leave the phone. but what if they do. that if a child of mine wanted to go out and see the world i would tell them go and see
1:41 pm
what i can tell you now there is nothing to say. back in germany interest in where akiva find out is a rabbi he grew up in ultra-orthodox community in new york state in the new move to israel there he lived like cross he was betrothed to d.h. of 19 and by the age of 22 he had 2 children. then 2014 he decided to leave the path mapped out for him he left his family and came to germany and almost broke under the strain of the separation. in the 1st few months that i was in berlin i would not stand there a window on a higher floor because i was afraid i would jump that's how hard it was. it is hard to cope with the loneliness the sudden loss of the family which usually spurns
1:42 pm
those who live by vine gottman was lucky he found a new partner rosa and a job as the rabbi of dresden stewart's community and his family did not completely break with him he regularly skype's with his family in new york state and lets them share his new life that they show you our national air. god. so i was in the same sort of gear in. 16. i mean only 7 are here. his daughters from his 1st marriage miriam marquis and also taking part in the scott cool usually he travels to israel every 3 months to visit them but that's
1:43 pm
been impossible since february due to the pandemic miria you dressed up for the show about sure i'm ready i've got myself ready who isn't ready moki no milk is ready to hit the more traditional of the vine gardens it's wife still leads an ultra-orthodox life she has broken off contact with him and never takes part in the calls with the children. i think that my children are too small to want to standards i do not know what they're being told by their teachers and by their mother i do. know that they will grow up and they will have. the ability to choose afterwards because. another world has opened up for them and once they're in the right age we can have these conversations and then they can choose where they want to be. i keep a vine garden wants his children and his congregation to have a choice. that's why he and his girlfriend rosa decided to create
1:44 pm
a program interest in berlin to help people who live on 2 orthodox communities. all of. the god of. yours there is no program like this so far but. he's being approached about this from. young men and women that left of the doxy and they see already lives in the secular world but she keeps his in some way and sort of religiousness a sort of jewishness in within the. within the secular world that's exactly what more than it would like to achieve. victory. and. this is my father.
1:45 pm
one of my princess doesn't have princess terms this is my little sister this is my nephew. is the eldest of 10 children the 23 year old misses his family desperately . i don't even know he's abandoned the phone he told his parents he was going to germany to study the holy scriptures. i think that's part of me not for now that part of the break the code from keep going for. in his former life going forward just for the sake of it was inconceivable. in jerusalem he usually stayed nishida studying torah until 10 pm at night. when iraq probably until the age of $1415.00 maybe it was a very clear to me is after all what you do on all do exist and in the wall it was
1:46 pm
shipped up to all it's all about him in every aspect in the life it's towards the ruling of the world what he wants what he wants for from you in the last year in my . soul riyadh the more open conversations between the guys on a lot of subjects you can call them a bit taboo by. by the world and i understand where it's finished we're going to live and to move over. i lost the connection a. purpose 2 years ago i decided to secretly leave the shiver and go to a state school without telling his parents he can't least orthodox world when he heard about the project in germany designed to support people like him he got in touch with rabbi find out via facebook who arranged for him to come to dressed in the summer. issue out of the house of gout.
1:47 pm
now he's learning german along with others in the program. to govern. them with him so. you really. just say i'm not there is also mention to you. they are over but one of them called you know it. was similar. for me it's like a new world for the union surely long auburn line coffee is. if after. all the talk in the last is playing games with ford i don't know if we really care. all. that. trouble i find god in has who can i say the classes he also helps motioned the
1:48 pm
others to find apartments and furnish them funded by private donations the tafel interest in an organization for people in need also does its best. for picking up the slack here and maybe also go off in the. other where you know rather than what was the father. before he turned his back on all to also talks life moshe was never on his own his days was shaped by religion and the family rabbi vine garden is now helping him to cope alone step by step from being on his own has however raised many questions. this is open to question say right now if god exists positive what it's all for me to walk through digital rights or. i don't feel like religion is is part of. the rabbi hopes to help him deal with such extensional problems in
