9:05 am
it's pandemic. he's also meeting boris johnson, the u. k. prime minister, the u. k. of course, historically a very important dallas off the u. s. however, when it comes to the personal relationship between those 2 readers, it might be a little bit delicate this meeting today because president biden had one liken johnson to a clone of president trump. however, we know that for both leaders, it is an important meeting, and it is also important for both of them that this g 7 summit goes well. so we assume that they will try to make good with the u. k no longer in the u. back it is their work to be done to reconfigure us british relations well, yes, sure. and we know, you know, the u. k has only just left the european union, and president biden was not a fan of brags it,
9:06 am
unlike his 3 descent on the trunk. and he's headed by has made it always very, very clear that for him having irish roots that this issue of ireland and of the good friday agreement of the peace process and the republic of ireland. that's an absolute priority for him. and just now we're seeing that the u. k. and you actually and gulf in quite a big row over island, over the border and then overboard. it's checks and basically technical issues that nevertheless cause big problems when it comes to the relation between the u. k. u 2, we will expect that joe biden was definitely raised this issue and might help johnson when it comes to the peace process and northern ireland bigger. thank you very much. those are correspondent, big master in carlos bay in the u. k. now to russia were a court is outlawed organizations, founded by jailed opposition leader election avante declaring them to be extremist, the ruling bars,
9:07 am
people associated with the groups from running for public office. dashing, the hopes have been found. these are lies of seeking seats and a parliamentary election in september activists to have worked with the organizations and anyone who donates to them or shares the groups materials could be prosecuted and go to prison. or for more on the verdict. let's cross over to our moscow correspondent, emily, sherwin. this sounds like a far reaching decision tell us more. while this decision was pretty widely expected, even before the trial decided in the court decided rather to declare these organizations extremist, the network of noble nice offices had already dissolved. the prosecutor's office here had actually said that they would not be able to work any more,
9:08 am
even in anticipation of the court verdict. the trial itself took place behind closed doors. there seemed to be a lot of material to get through. the trial took 12 and a half hours, but the lawyers defending of these organizations said that it seemed like the court was in a rush to just get the decision out. apparently they rejected. the court rejected all the appeals that the defense lawyers made and tried to bring into proceedings almost as if they were rushing through. there were hardly any breaks, apparently. and what this means now is that these organizations will not be able to disseminate any information. no one associated with them will be able to take play, take part in upcoming elections. anyone who worked for these organizations or was involved with them, could face up to 6 years in jail. and even as you said, anyone who posts information from these organizations or has posted in the
9:09 am
past could face fines are up to 15 days in jail. i want to talk more about that. but 1st, let's hear this reaction from one of the defense lawyers. the nurse don't, let me remind you again that the anti corruption foundation isn't the organization . it's the people. how can, when i mediately stop these people's activities, is not quite clear to me. i think it's impossible, you can stop by there. and that was one of the anti corruption organizations defense lawyers. emily, he was sounding defiant, but this law, this decision effectively does hamstring. the russian opposition had a fall. elections, doesn't it? well, it's certainly hamstrings. anyone associated with st. very nice organizations. they won't be able to run in the upcoming elections now. and it also isn't quite clear how no vine, these organizations, or anyone you know,
9:10 am
associated with him will kind of organize their work going forward. even when this, the prosecutor's office asked for these 3 or organizations to be clarity, extremists, nobody's allies said, you know, we will continue our work even if we don't have an office that all doesn't matter. but it's kind of not clear how 1st of all organizationally, but i think the biggest hurdle that now by nice allied face now is people's growing fear. because this extremism label means that if you're associated with the organization or were associated with it, you know, you could face real consequences. and for example, nobody has been calling for people to register for what he calls smart voting. which means basically these allies will send you the candidate who in, in the vote, could most likely be the ruling united russia party in your area. and, you know, people could be afraid to even register their for example. there was a case recently where a database of nevada new supporters was actually leaked. and i think that fear now
9:11 am
will be growing going forward. so it's, it's hard to know how many people will be likely to take that risk d, w 's corresponding in moscow. the emily sure, when thank you so much say look at some of the other stories making headlines around the world today. a major oil pipeline posed by environmentalists and climate change campaigners has been cancelled. the keystone excel pipeline would have carried crude oil from canada to the u. s. present, joe biden revoked its permit on his 1st day in office. now the company behind it has scrap the project. child labor has risen for the 1st time in 20 years. united nations says 160000000 children around the world are forced to work more than half or younger than 12. the un is warning that the pandemic could push millions more

9:15 am
this 2nd 3rd, and determine possibly get into a bigger effect. it will take longer time for the economy to, for the labor market, for the employment needs to come to the nominal anomaly. you gauge, the unskilled worker, remembers how last the millions were left. jobless during the national lockdown. some of them never work again. he feels that the seemly happened to him. i'm thinking that if i don't get work soon, i'll go back to my village and it looks like i might have to just seems to be no work right now. it was another day with no job for your dish. he will be back again at the same spot tomorrow morning waiting for work. but he doesn't know how much longer he can hold out. and our correspondent manero chaudhry, who filed that report on just now from delhi when. what's the indian government
9:16 am

9:19 am
but we can't take wrists when we are enough coffee in condemning. so we'd need to be very careful and that's why i'm not going. but others are calling for a permanent end to these months. the outside shoveling saffron paperwork between russelton's strasburg once a month course, the 100000000 years to year. not to mention the environmental impact. any change, however, would mean rewriting you treaties, something local, french greens. suppose we have turned up to welcome any peace deck to this city is that the base for part is included, so does your contracts all like that for parliament to have the sessions here in europe shouldn't be centralized. green from strasburg, and the us are happy to welcome our representative on the phone and isn't on the other side of the road. movie dean as leaves preparing some revenues meals

9:21 am
hope the future won't be digital only. and some believe the old fashioned appeal of good food and drink could new or more politicians spec for is i thought we were waiting for them with our hearts. we would like everyone to come back and to regain the lines for that going to be. i've also to plus transfer, playing house to the european parliament is the source of income, but it's also a source of pride in part of its history. in the heart of europe. cultural life here in germany is slowly being revived after months of locked down. what's normally berlin's top event in the middle of the winter is now taking place as an outdoor celebration. the berlin international film festival has already handed out its trophies the golden bears in an online competition. and now audiences can finally see the entries under summer skies. berlin's museum island is being turned into
9:22 am
a giant openness cinema 1st on the bill. the more attain in jodie foster stars as a lawyer defending a suspect being held at guantanamo bay. after $911.00, there will be 3 names on the lawsuit. united states of america, donald rumsfeld, and george w bush like a list is jodie foster won't be here in person because of travel restrictions. instead, it's a burly knowledge for the fans. i think we all need a little bit of hope and happiness. this event comes after a very long, dark moment and the made the most important thing for us is really to give the feeling that it's possible to stay together. and without any fears, it's a little different this year, outdoor screenings only, and the pearl in our bears are already awarded the pandemic and the rise of screaming,
9:23 am
but changing all the room. and for more on this use rather different berlin film festival and joined by the w culture correspondence star racks for august. so finally a belly in on a, in the summer. but without the awards. how significant is it, scott that these films are finally being screened? i think it's incredibly significant. i was at the opening ceremony last night and one of the actors i spoke to the red carpet. he said it was like coming out of hibernation because we've all been sort of in our own little caves that home, you know, watching, watching films with us, the light of our laptops. and this is the 1st time for many people and maybe over a year that they've been able to see a film on a big screen with, with a real live audience. even though it was, was open air and not in the cinema. and for the film industry and for cinema fans, i think it's
9:24 am
a hugely important moment. sort of aside hopefully that things maybe are getting back to normal, that movies are, are coming back. so tell us more about the films themselves and the viewing experience here. what is it that the film goers have to look forward to? well, from the view experience it's, it's quite different than your typical belly, which takes place usually in the winter. and it's, you're cold and you're inside this, these, these little theaters. these are all open air theaters doing for this festival, the summer festival. so there and these quite dramatic, impressive locations. last night it was on the museum island in front of the famous program on museum. so that the, you could see the bullying cathedral in front of you and the museum behind you and the huge screen in front of you really impressive. their location in terms of the deflection of this year is phenomenal. last night we saw the mauritania, which is a big, some hollywood filled with jodie foster. but there's a lot of very interesting art house movies being shown to me. the one that won the golden bear,
9:25 am
which has the phenomenal title of bad luck banging or do need porn. it's a social satire from romania, phenomenal film, exactly the right film for sort of this moment in time after that sort of crazy years. we've had berlin's culture minister called this year's belly, not a new start for culture, but the pandemic really has had taken a horrible toll on the film industry and culture as a whole. how deep has the impact been on the film industry? it's been phenomenal, particularly in the center beside. sin was of course, have been shot for almost a year now the there have been allowed to reopen in some parts of germany, but there hasn't still really going to complete sort of nationwide reopening. and germany's a bit different than a lot of other countries in that there's a lot of sort of mom and pops in of opperation. here there's a lot of sort of small business owners have one or 2 syllabus instead of the sort of huge change change to dominate everything. and they've been really, really hard that they can sort of take
9:26 am
a hit of one year without income. so up till now the german government has supported these are small operations, but it may be seen how quickly they can come back as the start to reopen. the big question for all these cinema owners across germany is, will people come back in droves? will they re enter the cinema or have people have gotten out of the habit of going to the movies and for years out they haven't been able to. i think that's the real big question. the answer that will show how deep the damage has been to the sort of industry people going to pass barely not as like yourself, are used to shivering out on the red carpet, we see stars coming in, you know, often some, some of the women wearing dresses in this very cold temperatures. finally we're in the summer. do you think maybe the brilliant on possible might end up happening in the summer in the future? yeah, i mean it's funny go way back before my time. it wasn't summer. well that was the original idea. the belly, not other than many, many years ago, they moved it to the winter months also to fit better with the sort of film industry calendar to happen before the oscars. so there's that big push before that
9:27 am
having a really now in the summer is phenomenal. i be last night being out under the sky in warm weather, people were having a great time of it gets real. so berlin summer feeling, but i don't think it's going to be going to happen. i think they might have some special events in the future, but it's going to be a winter event going forward. sadly, scott, thank you so much. our cultural correspond scott rock sperl. thanks for watching. the news. the news. news, the news
