9:06 am
now because the more and more people in general it's got much to come out and question why exactly can't go into this massive crisis question by the plans to continue going journeys and questions why the government has not taken the clear on why it is more seriously even long long standing stones of or just off the government within the media have come out and ask what exactly happened. and how has the government responded to this criticism. of the government is not teaching any criticism that is so pot is absolutely just using phone leak 208 and mistakes on its spot over the last week we have heard about. twitter down tweets that actually because of the pandemic and just. earlier today the government don't very strong statement from the embassy in australia criticizing an article in an australian newspaper then blamed the only government for its handling of the crisis
9:07 am
saying that this is misleading and malicious so the government did beetling sense that they are doing the best of the vaccine go without a strong defense of the cracks in the beginning and that they've been investigate why and source is happening but they refused to admit any mismanagement on that plot or at that. reporting for us in delhi will be touching base with us throughout the day thank you michel and the german chancellor i'm going to medical has confirmed that germany is sending medical aid to india as part of an international effort to bring the covert $1000.00 crisis the end of control. given that i'm in the middle we'll work with other countries to ensure that we can hold india we're working hard on finding ways to get oxygen production facilities there the whole of europe is working on that and i also discussed this with the prime minister of portugal today currently holding the e.u. presidency we want to do everything we can to help india and here's
9:08 am
a look at some of the major developments in the pandemic the united states will start sharing up to 60000000 doses of esther's any a vaccine with other countries in the next few months the shot has not yet authorized for use in the u.s. but has been under pressure to share more of its vaccine supply with the world he is imposing a full nationwide lockdown sit and last until the middle of may the number of new infections in the country sought to record levels this month and brazil's health regulator has denied permission to import rushes but make the vaccine citing a lack of information guaranteeing its safety odyssey and effectiveness. and it's not a german when an initially slow vaccine rollout is picking up pace chancellor angela merkel say's she expects that from june anyone who wants to make an appointment for a job will be able to do so her comments came off to a meeting with the 16 state previous to discuss the vaccination drive. chancellor
9:09 am
angela merkel dubbed it a meeting of hope the situation in germany remain serious with daily call with 19 cases still alarmingly high and the number of coronavirus patients in intensive care still growing but the vaccination drive is picking up speed so much so that germany may soon be able to offer vaccines to everyone not only those that high risk. the hall we expect the people in the high priority group will be vaccinated by the end of may. that means that depending on how many vaccine doses we get we can abandon the priority list as of june at the latest. this is not mean that everyone can be vaccinated immediately but that everyone can make an appointment. after a slow start during the 1st few months of the year now around 23 percent of
9:10 am
germany's population has received the 1st dose that's thanks to an increase in the liveries more reliable supply chains and fairly doctors now also administering the shot. with more and more people vaccinated the debate on whether they should enjoy more freedom from restrictions is also mounting chancellor merkel said the government is preparing legislation to ease some measures those who have been fully vaccinated or those who have recovered from corbin 1000 should be exempted from having to get tests to go to non-essential shops or from quarantining after returning from abroad they would still however have to continue following mask and social distancing rules. and i think that's unfair a more nuanced solution must be found. it is absolutely clear to me that people who have been vaccinated must get their basic rights back it's not a question of whether they get special rights but that they can live normally again . i think it's good but it's a pity that it's not my turn yet but her to. turn may not be far off chance of
9:11 am
america's promise to offer every adult in germany a vaccine by the end of the summer seemed impossible to many only a few weeks ago now hopes are high that her pledge will be met. and for more on this i'm joined by deja news and shelf and also good morning and yes so why has chancellor angela merkel and the leaders of germany is 16 states not been able to agree on what freedoms vaccinated people could have well christine in the last few months of this pandemic we've seen lots of these meetings between the chancellor and the state leaders that have dragged on long into the night where there's been lots of controversy debate it's been incredibly hard to find consensus and it was almost like this time around they decided this was going to be a meeting with some good news and they put the difficult decisions off and it was clear from the start that the most difficult decision of this that was on the
9:12 am
agenda at this meeting was the you do in really really instituting basic rights for those who've been vaccinated. and it seems that decision has just been pushed further down the road really and also bear in mind that here in germany a national lockdown or only just came into effect on saturday infection rates are still inching up at the moment. and of course if you look at the figures we just saw that they're only just over 7 percent of people have actually been fully vaccinated. so it does seem still pretty early to be making those decisions about what rights they should be getting back right but this is happening as we are just saying that this vaccination drive is kicking into gear what the growing amount of vaccinated people now increase the pressure for them to be granted more freedoms. well yes and no really of course as more and more people are vaccinated there's
9:13 am
more demand for them to get their lives back and the economy needs it badly too of course. but it also makes it easier in a way of course you have more people vaccinated you have more support for the you know for giving them their rights back and also there's an argument that it might persuade those who've been reluctant to get vaccinated and to get finally get bad job and but also this could be a very short discussion in a way because if the vaccination drive really does go ahead as quickly as merkel has not promised and everyone can you know apply to get a vaccine come june then we may have reached herd immunity as soon as anything and may all be able to lead normal lives again right that's on your shelf north reporting for us thank you. is the record of the 2nd highest from cold at 19 in europe and one of the largest in the well but they seem to be some signs of hope with infection rates dropping 3 quarters of its these regions

security and cooperation in europe protests of an os just presidential election have died down but hundreds of opponents of. alexandre because remain in prison. for more conexant the kolesnikov called the last letter from his daughter maria one and a half months ago. she sente from prison. kolesnik over as one of the leaders of the mass protests in belarus in jail since september she writes she's doing well triggering some optimism in her father. the protests haven't disappeared just on ice at the moment. but certain events could lead to them starting again at any time. this is minsk today the rusian capital is clean and eerily quiet there's no reminder of the events of 8 months ago. as many as
9:20 am
200000 people took to the streets to protest allegations of fraud during august presidential elections. but the brutal response of the security forces 1st led to protest leaders like kolesnik over disappearing from the streets. then the mass protests themselves faded. those in power did everything to leave those grassroots protests without a leader and if a protest movement without a political strategy like this one comes up against north oratory and regime it can win but he. has also been subjected to pressure from the government the human rights activists fell into disfavor security forces searched her office and home she was then imprisoned on your thoughts he's threatened to take a son away. my husband and my son had to emigrate they can come back and i can visit them. we live in different

9:22 am
a hope and that also goes for the relatives of the more than 350 other political prisoners in by the us. some football news now and this. is a coach and hi jim on and german media are reporting that he will leave the club to take over from a guy in munich but the 33 year old noddles money could come with a hefty price tag according to reports it could cost the defending industry a champions around $30000000.00 euros that would be a new record feat for a german coach one current contract. runs until 2023 and he made history last season by taking them all the way to the champions league sumi. and joining me now for more on the big story is. sports good to have you here at lima so. by him but is he the
9:23 am
right man for that job there is no right or wrong answer to you know they all obviously some risks involved but i would make the argument that the positives outweigh the negatives in union not of money you find a coach that's tactically extremely flexible his understanding of football of the game is way beyond his experience way beyond his years and as you just mentioned you know last season he made history by taking a very young a very inexperienced like 6 hype all the way to the champion's league semifinal and that's also not forget year in and year out leipzig have also lost really good players and yet still now this month has managed to keep this team at the very top you know still you know in the running as soon as he could contenders but i'm sure there's a lot of skeptics that will say you know we really not back off a bit. you're getting a bit ahead ahead of yourself because he's not won anything ok he has no trophies of course he's still in the running for the german cup the seasons are he truly
9:24 am
a trophy before he joins you know if you go through before he joined by and but he's never critics will also say that he's never coached a big club and leave that hoffenheim end at leipsic that he was given time to develop a team and by and of course here we all know results driven of course are orientated this is a team where the question becomes will novice money you know will will justice be served in the sense that will he be given the time and the patience in order to realize his full potential and accept like buy in munich ok but he does come with a hefty price tag we've got a point that he does this i mean this is so so interesting i mean he will cost by an up to $30000000.00 euro's and that of course would set a new record for a. transfer and the only thing that comes close to that is back in 2011 when permian recap. what was it around $15000000.00 euros to put to the
9:25 am
site portal for they coach andrius for us and of course if this deal with nonis monday through the numbers would double he would double that well yeah ok so it's talk about the club but he would be leaving what happens at rb i see who takes over for him there yeah just be macho he has been linked to life stage and he's an american coach with a bit of experience in major league soccer and he's currently the colts at 6 sister club as an actor khalid. spoke in austria and he won the win is a good title with them last season and if you look at the top mentality and the culture i think he at the moment is the favorite and would he would just fit right in ok but it's in the here because we could go on. and you know it's like you for a deed of the sports thank you for the ets and finally anyone looking into the skies last night was able to give him a so-called pink superman i saw it was incredible stuff now although it doesn't
