3:15 pm
there's a clear responsibility on the behalf of you and the member states that are involved in these push backs. as a network we recorded 1800 people being pushed back last year from croatia into the last year involving high levels of violence said the precarious situation people find themselves in in camps like and in the border areas of western bosnia east directly being contributed to by the east policy of x. and y. orders and the way that member states have a free rein in carrying out on a violent collective explosions we're seeing as your reporter mentioned people being threatened with weapons officers discharging guns in the border area we also have many many cases of disproportionate use of force against people and this is also very against minors and children bilocation point which was mentioned there by mareena has over 100 people many of you know families and 30 percent of our cases are offering countering mind it's being pushed back by the so it's member states
3:16 pm
directly involved in this process it's a process of pushbacks that russell is keenly aware of and missing out of the commission is it it's we despise me or bear no responsibility in this by not actually providing proper accommodation for these people for effectively pushing them on into a year. well of course the local authority should be responsible for reacting and facilitate be seeing accommodation and basic i mean it sees in an orderly way and we've seen that there's been problems with that in the least i can think of one example where the service of foreign affairs' have tried to essentially corral people into an area there which doesn't have proper sanitation you know or all the basic facilities that i mean needed but again i think it's a bit of a misnomer to focus directly on their role when we know that the reason these transit communities are in western bosnia is directly because they're trying to get into the e.u. and the e.u.
3:17 pm
is carrying out part of her she announced so i think working with a lot of local authorities to find interim solutions is an important thing reopening of quality accommodation specialized accommodation for miners and the men and families but i think the the overall the overarching problem here is $1.00 policy and one of human rights violations rather than the image that misuse of camps in accommodation that's for joining us simon campbell from the border violence monitoring network. not to spice a 7 month journey by nasa's new robot comes with rubbing climax later robot will attempt to land on moscow the most intense part of the lobbying is the 7 minutes. after perseverance hits the martian atmosphere has to slow down a lot and nasa describes those 7 minutes of terror.
3:18 pm
10 minutes to touchdown. the perseverance rover must separate from the spacecraft that has brought it to mars next it must position itself to enter the martian atmosphere the friction of which will heat up its thermal shield to temperatures as high as 1300 degrees celsius. while the mars rover inside this you know will only reach room temperature. when perseverance and speed reaches 6500 kilometers per hour. it's parachute will deploy the new range trigger technology will improve the spacecraft's ability to hit a landing target 20 seconds later the heat shield will detect from the entry count still. allowing the rover to find a safe landing site. at
3:19 pm
about 2100 meters or 7000 feet above mars surface perseverance will separate from its parachute and ignite its jet packs 8 engines. printers slowing that research laboratory unbeknownst. to. the sky crane maneuver will lower the rover down to the surface and nylon tethers. next perseverance must reposition. it's legs and wheels right after touchdown it must detach from the tethers mission control will only find out whether the mars rover landed successfully 11 minutes after the fact. and whether it will be able to explore or just 0 crater its floor was home to an ancient lake delton system about 4000000000 years ago which left a layer of sediment
3:20 pm
a promising site in the hunt for microscopic fossils. in the united arab emirates will also explore mars its space program home and to the red planet's orbit on february 9th and is scheduled to start work this summer. hope will examine the martian atmosphere for years observing weather and seasonal changes. the chinese have big plans for their 1st mars mission they also want to land a spacecraft something only the americans have so far succeeded in doing china's tionne when one probe has been orbiting the red planet since february 10th it will reach the surface without landing device and research vehicle in maine and send data gathered on mars back to dinner. next the pro bowl examine the types of
3:21 pm
minerals on mars and make maps of resources such as for deposits. planetary researchers and looking forward to pull them into. sounds like it's getting quite crowded up that let's take a closer look at this race to mars with caitlin johnson she's deputy director on fellow of the aerospace security project a center for strategic and international studies in washington d.c. welcome to you to me is national missions than just saddam's. for the mars program science is definitely the priority and luckily in the international community. science missions are extremely collaborative and so i think we're all hoping to see a lot of data sharing and information gathering from the mars missions which you know could enable future you know crude mission sending humans to mars well i think
3:22 pm
that china is juice a lot and on the last soon as well what sets this space program apart from site nasa is. obviously nasa has a long history of landing rovers on mars this is the fit as well as several other martian experiments in the spacecraft that have been sent this is china's 1st they are having covered 2 part mission the 1st is to monitor the atmosphere very similar to the u.a.e. is hope mission but the 2nd and more technically complicated is the landing. system on mars which will happen this summer and then sending the 1st data back to china from the chinese system they've had great success on the moon recently as well and so this is just one more step in growing their civil space program does
3:23 pm
that data get shed as well the chinese data. it dies there are some complications at least between the united states and china there is a law in the united states that were strikes cooperation between nasa and the chinese space program but china does share and distribute that data with other scientists around the world and there is a little bit of collaboration between nasa and china and has been it with their own missions and hopefully we can use these new side missions to just keep growing that relationship of cooperation between the 2 nations so who runs the know it's a weird question but it's cite china or the u.s. discovers valuable minerals up there and decide they want to exploit them does anyone else get a say or does become like the sort of like the wild west who has got the biggest guns gets to keep as much as they can carry it a little bit wild west there is a. treaty from the united nations in 967 called the outer space
3:24 pm
treaty which kind of lets it's kind of finders keepers so if you find materials i a celestial body you can keep it send it back to your you know your whole nation to study but other than that it's pretty vague and it's something that i don't asset is working on. developing for there are regulations or international consensus around you know what the process might be like for future missions and quite interesting the idea of find this keep as having made it's on to the international statute book because it's not just government says it private companies looking to moscow as well like able musk's space x. so how are they likely to affect these exploration efforts. i think it adds. a lot of complexity to an already complex issue and frankly.
3:25 pm
legislation for the space community and fractions in outer space is pretty vague and pretty outdated it was developed mostly in the sixty's and a lot of it is tied to the regulations but i ask you how these partial companies looking to the moon and to mars for both human exploration but also their own martial purposes i think we really need to think hard as an international community of what will best protect those planets and and preserve you know the integrity of there are of the planet itself so we don't just have a bunch of people out there mining mars how are you know that. they could swing and that could be the case something for the lawyers to figure out all right good talking to thank you so much for joining us i kaylin johnson of the center for strategic and international studies thank you for having me. to tear this

3:31 pm
producing master craft. i'm british welcome to do. glad you could join us even as many nations around the world struggling with covert vaccine shortages india is distributing millions of doses in its neighborhood and further afield most have been given away free some commercially the policy is in line with prime minister narendra modi's assurance to make affordable vaccines available to the world but there are definite hints of indian soft power at play especially at a time the china too is ramping up its own so-called vaccine diplomacy. this is the 1st consignment of vaccine to arrive in afghanistan it includes half
3:32 pm
a 1000000 doses and was donated by the government of india. the international press and host of v.i.p.'s have been assembled to witness the event so what is behind such generosity and embassy spokesperson explanation. that you know we have a long history. of going to. got it does a wreck see in my play we do know. friendship through vaccination while other countries are accused of holding vaccines or failing to sick. enough for their citizens india has already given away more than 5000000 doses and may donate as many as 20000000 to neighboring nations in the near future. among the beneficiaries a my in ma bangladesh sri lanka bhutan and nepal. we
3:33 pm
have been successful in bringing the vaccines to nepal. but this i would like to thank the indian government prime minister narendra modi and the people of india on behalf of new polls government prime minister k.p. sharma only and the people of nepal. india is one of the world's largest vaccine produces already meeting more than 60 percent of global demand one of its champions is the privately owned syrian institute of india when covered 19 heads they teamed up with british swedish for astra zeneca together they quickly produced and stockpiled more than 70000000 doses which put india in a position to be able to help other countries with their and occupation drives for india this is a source of national pride it's also seen as a way of improving ties in the region and some say leveraging any goodwill that
3:34 pm
might be generated. other suggest delis hoping to counter chinese influence as beijing conducts its own vaccine diplomacy delivering dozens of its job to countries in india's backyard. joining me now is an unchristian and he's china correspondent for the hindu newspaper and author of the book india's china challenge he joins me now from a month. india called a vaccine made through your backs in friendship but is it primarily a way to counter chinese influence in what india has already seen as its influence . well but i don't really think so because if you look at the spread of where there has been sending its vaccines it's of course focused in the immediate neighborhood of bangladesh and neon maya naipaul of the more doses from india than any other country but india is also supplying vaccines to egypt south africa brazil now
3:35 pm
countries in the caribbean i think it's more a question of india happening to be one of the places in the world that has the biggest capacity for making vaccines and right now are british the it's more a question of demand and supply where india is going to be producing way more than it needs just so far india has vaccinated about 8000000 people and it has sent about 16000000 doses of vaccines abroad of which about one 3rd of grants and the rest on a commercial basis so i think gracious more of a demand to play should other than the vaccine competition and as someone in the paul recently told me if india and china are going head over heals the supply of axes is a good thing for the world but is it a member to so far as her but india's hoping to predict. for sure i'm sure that is an added element if i don't think it would be the case where diplomacy or geopolitics isn't jiving this effort i think as i said it's more a question of india having the capacity to do so but of course i think for india
3:36 pm
for china or for every other country that is an added element as you can see india there so it has been a says been tweeting almost every dispatched the indian envoy is an indian mission to the countries of receiving them and been quite active on social media actual peace and so of course as you said i think it's a wonderful opportunity to showcase soft power for india for china for any other country but my own sense braces the idea of vaccine competition between india and china something i think perhaps being played up too much in the in the media i think china itself has to back seen that it's producing in large quantities as you know they've controlled the corner wider spread in china so they do have the capacity to export them overseas as well so i think it is a good thing for the world that india and china emerging as big suppliers of x. scenes india especially being one of the world's biggest manufacturers it's not a good thing for the world if there is some element of software or competition i think race will be it when the let's fortran focus on the soft spot i'm thinking
3:37 pm
particularly of india's ties in the immediate neighborhood with countries such as bangla vision which of them live in front in the recent past do you think accidentally if i can put the best way they might see a slight improvement. i think it is interesting where it seems that india's relations with the immediate neighborhood seems to be cyclical where they go through periods of crisis and then the kind of catch up and i think that happens a lot especially with may fall and she langkow you've seen them gravitate towards china and then you had changes in government the gov did back was in there my feeling is i think that is some amount of realism in delhi especially for a smaller country needed neighborhood it's in their interests to try and claim the offer of china to get the best deal i don't think that dynamic is going to change and i would expect that push pull continue in the immediate neighborhood for some time to come i think we should keep in mind there's a spectrum in if you look at india's immediate neighborhood i think it ranges from bhutan on the one hand which has extremely close relations in the north ties with
3:38 pm
china for us we pakistan and the other that i think in between it's a lot of a greater i think it was to look at naples she along karbala leaves this seem to be moving to china than away from china and i think that kind of dynamic is here to stay and i think you're seeing that reflected a little bit in the vaccines as well it's quite interesting that china has been quite slow to be able to send its vaccine for whatever reason to countries in south asia barring pakistan china has very belatedly announced a half 1000000 deal to supply vaccines to make pollan there was some controversy and they filed a patent leaking documents saying that the chinese embassy there was pressuring the file directly to kind of take up chinese vaccines the chinese media is accuse india of blocking the chinese trials in bangladesh although later it emerged was more about the chinese company changing the terms of the deal so i said recently it is playing out a little bit perhaps a little bit too much being made of it at my opening and i'm for some thanks very much for sharing that to bring them by science. i mean the philippians like almost

everywhere the pandemic has been costly well beyond the health effects of the corona by us families have struggled to make ends meet to put food on the table one filipino town has worked to devise its fortunes taking back a landfill and turning it into a source of food. harvest time in the village of then going to resolve offers an extraordinary moment for ricardo for one thing this bottle cord can go a long way toward feeding his family for another he helps plant it and grow it in fact more than that ricardo and so many others from the village helped put the soil down here. for this used to be a dumping ground for mostly an recycled plastics a months long labor intensive effort partnering a cooperative with local governments to turn the space into a patch of farmland and in a village reeling from the effects of the global pandemic there is more food to go
3:40 pm
around and more paid work as well. all of the following now we have vegetables that we can eat every day with the moment we also get an allowance from the village administration. i save a lot because i can get vegetables from the garden. that we now have food to survive. the organic garden itself is a good chunk of land about 4 football pitches worth the extra produce is sold in local markets. during the day big. some of us looking for to some name. want to know dig a little bit and then what bit of this people because i know the opportunity afforded them. and that both the wild well that's not happening i'm so happy.
3:41 pm
because there are many people who appreciate what we do. you know. they ask how we did it. the answer is simple hard work and now a knowledge and love of gardening. vietnam's national flower. finds a place in but this philosophy food even tea and now an artist is becoming the norm for his nautilus inspired art for a little more than 3 years a 62 year old has been using the flowers leaves for paintings. it takes a delicate touch to transform a lotus leaf into an artwork leaf and yet is a master of this unusual craft the 62 year old lives in the southern province of dung top not far from the mc on detail of art of plants are abundant and so patience. they make it easy to set colors for paintings this material such as
3:42 pm
rice or germs lotus leaves a you the nature of color with no artificial color so even after finishing it i'm still worried that the color may change that's why the leaves need to be dried and kept for 6 months before use. lotus if the national fell of vietnam and symbolizes home for him that it was the main reason why i choose to fetch a material for his art. after 3 years of tireless testing how to best use the leafs he now has a process under control. but painting was lotus elise is difficult because the lisa crispy and easily crushed so i have to make sure of the least have the right human after the leaves are tall and put together into shape they have to be dry enough to be stuck properly on the paper but that is a technique that i have mastered over a long time and then when the painting is finished i have to handle the issue of termite small toy insects that could break all right the painting.
3:43 pm
often looks to the past for inspiration towering figures from communist history. and that he merely the but more current political figures have also caught his eye . that's it for the very small indeed i would not call forward slash a show we're back tomorrow see about. the fight against the corona virus pandemic. has the rate of infection been developing what does the latest research. information and contact the coronavirus update. on t w. o many points to all blogs and strode out in the world right now climb a tree different off the store. base is one less thing when for just one week.
3:44 pm
how much work can really get. we still have time to an ongoing. success. that subscribes. trying to beat lockdown fatigue some europeans have been crossing borders fleeing to countries where they can enjoy more freedom like switzerland and spain. all the others just. seeing the restaurants open is a little shock because in paris it's depressing everything is closed all the blinds are lowered here you can feel there's more human warmth and you can finally eat at a restaurant on a terrace it's a feeling i would been missing for quite some time. so it's not just sun
3:45 pm
seekers what so many tourists really want is a slice of the free life they feel their countries no longer offer. but what does that mean for everyone else. while the snow is melting in much of europe case numbers are falling officials are easing restrictions and tourists are on the move again the question is with different parts of the continent moving at different speeds and with the ongoing threat of new variants could we find ourselves in trouble again. meeting friends and enjoying drinks in the sun a rare pastime these days but possible in madrid and that's why the spanish capital has become a refuge for young tourists from france it's so so depressing being in a country but is nothing's open it's gloomy all day you have to be back there's a curfew it at 6 you can even see your friends there are no cafes there's no you
3:46 pm
know you can't sit down with anyone you literally can't do anything in france. in madrid coronavirus restrictions are less strict than in other parts of europe and negative p.c.r. test was enough frenzy to divine tears to come here she didn't have to quarantine and also brought a friend i come here there's there's friends there is. to mazing it's a dream come true. a dream that theodore stark and i who koby have also pursued the students live in germany and are spending a few days here they planned the trip with friends knowing that germany has advised its population to avoid travelling tyrus countries. you feel bad if you travel because other people are self isolating and you're not supposed to travel at the moment. but i don't think you can stay at home for a whole year either. we want to see the world while we're in the prime of our lives
3:47 pm
. very madrid's police sometimes have to break up illegal parties held after curfew with participants ignoring current contact restrictions which is ideal for this spread of the virus this party was organized by french tourists. if you want to know what it interest we've had to intervene on several occasions all the participants are foreigners who'd come to madrid for a short time 2 or 3 days they rent an apartment and then they party. the. fines for these offenses during a pandemic start at 600 euros spanish authorities are in contact with their french counterparts illegal parties also worry dr laura sons in the end they all contribute to more infections. that get in america so we already have to be very careful with family members and in our everyday lives
3:48 pm
a necessary contact has to be avoided the young people we met this afternoon in madrid i think both can work being responsible and enjoying the freedoms of life we do all the. everything we wear the mask when we have to we don't want to bother spanish people you know we just want to leave again and in france we can to do that from now madrid is one of the few cities in europe that still allows some leeway though that could change at any time. is an environmental and health research or with the spanish national research council the grass is always greener on the other side but what can be the consequences of a little trip over the border to shake off the quarantine blues so to say. well the main consequence is that you may get infected people may think when they go to planes that may look at the average attention great but actually they are going to
3:49 pm
make small most likely we see people who are at the high seas because they're that they see as they're doing. is that at the end the only being in the all the glee is much more is much more so than owning thanks where you will get people. being thanked and they can be traced by de councilor is this because he's the one who's going to vote in 20 different places across europe. and then you will have new cases in very different places so you are going to really have the service that on top of that of them there may and what's the likelihood of their actions leading to not only the spread of the virus but also the creation of a new and possibly deadly a buriat all the same he did that more or basically out i guess is a lie you will get you are an absolute you know i want you i have. that of course and that was the need to concho you know i said come on you are asking somebody
3:50 pm
crazy they are. very friendly graphic regions are going to where there is hiking number of cases it used. to not only your model community but also oxley that the rest of it the rest of europe basically the rest of places where all are curious maybe also least lists so what's the solution close the borders and close them quickly. i think the solution is. the morris to teach what i'm alive in this tony whole nation on your own level established an integrated on long term planning that really acknowledges that this is a long term fight and that we need to be cases oath that is something and when it's when they are i mean he a waste of money a life then what i would suggest is to have a system of stressful sitting with different measures are in force and only. hope
3:51 pm
the country grows holders to protect all those but my impression is that countries close in borders. people coming in are infected is not the solution under solution east where you have infection rates being the ones that most horse project the rest of of the night with the rest of you or so which countries here in europe of got that strategy right would you say. that i mean we have probably the worst examples on the under the best example the worst examples are all including the u.k. where it was very light and you need some produce and. it. be and you are a radical 0 and then it grow the border is a guy on. the outside out and spoke always another has to be protected from the. then proceeded all posted on i think about raleigh is one of the best examples it
3:52 pm
has been very proficient taking measures in the beginning of it and then make and then when he had a number of cases it closed borders and i think the main reason was that the night of course. was to be the way it was percent and in between i mean most countries. approach the problem probably by being this would be really out on european are starting to think that it is actually locking the funding to support others strategies for slow play or to. louise why can't the politicians get it right i mean they've got you guys the scientists the research is in the area. well this isn't a good it's always difficult and i understand it has been that you sent for google and if i did and then make the population in general our paper so that has been extremely over at the front. or already been next year of it.
3:53 pm
and it seems you know elections are fighting some fight. in the way it. sort of planning on top of that and then it is the worst combination juries though he's not about to get thank you very much for joining us today from the spanish national research council thanks a lot and keep sending in your question says his alice science guy there who are humans with his latest q. and a on the court of arts. what will the longer term impacts on the generation growing up with called the 19 b. . this is a very tough topic for kids and young people and also their parents and i think it makes sense to look at it from 2 different angles the 1st is the question of how the disease can affect a young person's physical health which in some ways for me at least as a parent has surprisingly turned into the less scary aspect of the equation that's
3:54 pm
because it's grown clearer that as a general rule the younger the person the less severe the symptoms of coded 19 tend on average to be if you get it i don't want at all to imply that children or young people out there haven't suffered and died from it many have but that happens a lot less frequently than a dozen adults especially in older adults the question of possible long haul or effect saying kids this is kind of a separate one data is still too sparse to say much of anything about that with certainty we'll only know more when more time has passed what's also already clear however is the longer term effects that pervade 1000 will have on the other important aspect of this issue it's psychological and it's developmental impacts
3:55 pm
for a lot of older kids and young adults all over the world the opportunities like internships and entry level jobs that provide a springboard into life as an adult have just disappeared in the last year and that's led to a social crisis of unprecedented dimensions in that age group i think that will unquestionably have long term consequences and for younger children and teenagers where we're socialization play. it's such a key role in developments and because education is so closely linked to certain stages of the educators and experts say the effects of shutting preschools and schools are going to be severe and long term just how severe will depend on how much longer the pandemic continues.
