10:30 pm
i choice, these can have given away 4 times. my name is, gosh my much, and i did use the leaders of the world's most powerful democracies are converging on the idyllic sea side of cornwall, a county in england that has given out more vaccines than 22 african countries. combined. amnesty international has worn of staggering inequalities in access to vaccines that will determine not just who lives or dies, but future relations between countries. so how far are leaders willing to go to ensure equitable vaccine distribution? and how can use democracies show themselves as a convincing alternative to i talk receive like china and russia?
10:31 pm
i'm claire richardson in berlin and this is the day oh, the me i actually think that the meeting, the genuinely needs to be done to support that thing. diplomacy, blackmail, why not just thinking about us? how's that also about those who haven't yet been able to be vaccinated? important because we know one site until everyone is genuinely wonderful. to see everybody in the class or the 20. i'm pleased by us. she is a strong supporter of the transatlantic ball and it's, it's wonderful to listen to the bible ministration and job to get on the say much that they want to do together with the also on the day the
10:32 pm
youtube are taking on and this manage i year both the narrow as brazil suffers one of the deadliest outbreaks of cove in 1900 in the world. believe the nato received death threats for criticizing the brazilian presidents. he joins me live from rio de janeiro. right now. we're brazil is facing a very different and special situation that is very delicate. so what i said is that when we're facing fresh chism and fascists, every one who decided to stay silent is an accomplice of this fascist regime regime . oh, hello, and a very warm welcome to the show to our viewers on p b. s. in the united states and all around the world. we begin the day with the g 7 summit, a meeting of leaders from the world's wealthiest democracies. this year it's taking place in cornwall, southwest england, hosted by prime minister or johnson. it's the g 7 leaders 1st in person talk in
10:33 pm
nearly 2 years. they are expected to cover a range of topics on the world's most pressing issues, including the corona virus pandemic. the climate emergency and the strengthening of multilateral ties. the president has landed joe by non european soil for a week of diplomacy. his message that trump years of neglecting the trans atlantic alliance, a well and truly over at every point along the way. we're going to make it clear that united states is back. this trip is important for bite, and it goes to the heart of his belief about this era that we vented a battle of the systems between democracies like those here in europe. and to talk receipts like china and russia by new says that the west must unite and show that it's got what it takes. democracies of the world are standing together to tackle the toughest challenges and the issues that matter most to our future that were
10:34 pm
committed to leading was strength, defending our values. so biking has come to europe, the 3 summits with democratic clubs. first, the g 7 in britain, that nato and the european union in brussels before finally with russia is letting me biden's idea is that it's best to consult your friend. before you confront your rival. veteran german diplomat falls going issue. that's a good plan. i think it is very smart. it is in terms of diplomatic practice to meet with nato partners for and with partners 1st before the meeting with bloody may put it back, wants to be able to show who can and indirectly china to that when the west is united, they can deliver in ways that they cannot. thank you for she did nance plans to donate more coven vaccines to poor countries?
10:35 pm
and g 7, finance ministers of agreed a minimum rate of corporate tax to force global time pay that share. so you can expect the g 7 to be a show of transatlantic unity. but how deep does that unity go when it comes to biden's? big idea of pushing back against the autocrat on china. europe has tied in with us sanctions over human rights abuses. but europe's economy is so dependent on china that it's doubtful, it will be as tough as washington once and on russia. germany has refused to stop the controversial new stream to pipeline biden's seas. that is a major mistake that will make your weaker, more dependent on russia, both going, issuing a fears. if europe doesn't step pun it, risk feeding trump narrative that the trans atlantic alliance isn't west. is there anything we can do to make sure that the next president will
10:36 pm
not be again, donald trump, or somebody like donald trump, who wishes to abandon europe? we want to be a good partner, another useless topic. so a lot rides on this week. if somebody's between friends and foes meetings that count both for the outside world and for the voters back home. and i'm joined now by yano pooley read from the european council on foreign relations. she focuses on european foreign policy as well as security and defense policy. and trans atlantic ties welcome to the day we heard johnson and biden agreed on a new so called atlantic charter models on the one signed by f d r, and winston churchill, the laid out their vision for a post war world order. so my question to you is how much reaffirmation did the special relationship between the u. s. and u. k. really need i think after that more than turbulent trump years. yeah. the renewal of the vows was something that was needed.
10:37 pm
that also was supposed to send a signal to the world that not only basically the united states is back, but the trans atlantic alliance of stance firm to tackle the global challenges. and i think it was yeah, it was a kind of symbolic gesture that is supposed to enhance to western credibility. ok, and renewing of the vows after the turbulent trump years. you want to stay with us . i want to play a clip of how prime minister boris johnson described the u. s. u k relationship after his meeting with violence and then get your take it. so it's a relationship. go to the deeper meaningful, like he knew that whatever was the, the indestructible relationship. it's a, it's a relationship that has endured for a very long time and has been an important part of peace and prosperity, both in, in europe and around the world. but also very positive,
10:38 pm
but are there any lingering doubts about us democracy? yes, i think especially if you're asked the german public, we just did that at the europe council on foreign relations. and we basically asked whether people thought the political system of the united states works well or is broken. and we asked that question last november, and now this april again. and although we see it by any fact, we see that the numbers recovered. and the dorothy of european still think that the political system in the united states is broken. and i think especially kind of the images of a capital riot stick with europeans. and yeah, there are some to be about whether kind of the from phenomena was one of a, whether there is something deeper that is wrong, i should do with the united states democracy. ok, so with your findings that europeans are skeptical about the restoration of america
10:39 pm
. how is that going to play out in conversations taking place at the g 7? i think kim, the in the united states came to, to europe to, to look for partners in that fight between democracies and i talk with cease. and i think although the europeans are willing to work with the united states, there are also defining their interests very clearly and chance to merkel and president my call have said that they are not interested in too much of a confrontation. i'm stance towards china. so i think that you will see that your opinions defining their interest want to work with the united states, but that they will make very clear where the red lines are. and so is that just to show a united front? i mean, we know biden is preparing for a meeting with russian president vladimir putin in geneva next week. do you think that that is contributing to them wanting to show
10:40 pm
a united front as leaders of these democracies? yeah, but i think this is also deeply in the european interest. i think it's a big relief that the united states president asks consulting allies for his before he meets with president tutti that is highly welcomed. and yeah, i think he, that was a good move by president biden, although i hear some complaints from central and eastern europe specially from poland that they feel not consulted enough. and that they complain about letting germany off the hook when it comes to not to and the waiver of the sentence. ok, so consultation is key. i want to turn the conversation now to talk about vaccines . leaders of the world. most powerful democracies are all sitting together at the table and this is going to be their chance to show that the west can offer a coherent vision of the future to pull the world out of the coping crisis. and in your view, what do you think leaders need to do to agree to in terms of vaccine sharing plans
10:41 pm
by the end of this weekend? i think they have to find an agreement or a compromise between what the president biden has proposed the waiver of trips and basically the european approach to share vaccine doses. now, president biden has amounts that he wants to buy a huge amount of vaccine doses to share with the global south and poor countries. and i think he expects the european to follow his example. and so there will be a loss of talk how to make sure that's also the poor countries get back tonight is soon because until everybody expects united, nobody se, okay. and this weekend is also in many ways a make or break moment for climate change. hundreds of protesters are in cornwall to urge leaders to take serious action on climate change. what can we expect from the talks?
10:42 pm
i think it's in those sites interests. it's in the, by the that ministrations interest, but also in the european interest to really make progress on climate change. we in germany has even a ruling from our constitutional kurt, which obliges our government to make progress. so i think you will see a willingness from both sides and of course some difficult topic remain here as well. like the question of the carbon border adjustment mechanism is something that needs to be discussed. but i think that these protesters have already achieved a lot also friday in the future movement. i think they have contributed much to the growing awareness all over europe and, and the united states jennifer oblivion from the european council on foreign relations. thank you so much for coming on the show with your insight. thank you. thank me. and after days of doubt,
10:43 pm
brazil supreme court says the country can host the corporate america soccer tournament this sunday. despite the current of iris pandemic. the vote to hold the copa was unanimous despite political groups and challenging the tournament. due to a surgeon cases in brazil, resistance had even come from the brazilian national team. it was originally due to be hosted by columbia and argentina before those 2 countries were dropped. a couple will take place without fans in stadiums. and with brazil suffering one of the world's worst cove in 1. $900.00 outbreaks for the destroyer ball scenario has come under fire for a disastrous pandemic response. one of his loudest critics is leaping nato. if popular youtube are known for goofing around and playing video games, but a brazilian who has used his platform to lam basketball scenario for his handling of the pandemic. and i want to bring in a phillip now from a rio de janeiro to talk more hopefully. thank you so much for joining us on the
10:44 pm
show. despite how lively the world of social media is in brazil, many celebrities have been keeping their mouth shut about the government's pandemic response. so at what point did you decide to go on the offensive against both scenario and his allies? well hi, thank you very much for giving me in the show. and well, it's been basically about being a human being seeing everything that most of our has been doing in brazil since the beginning of his leadership. it's been really outrageous. and since it's been since before the, the covey that outbreak, so to not speak up tonight, user platform when you have millions of followers, even when you have to force to not speak up about all the atrocities that he's committing in brazil is to be well to agree with him. so basically i used my twitter account to start thing everything i thought about his administration. and
10:45 pm
because a lot of people decided to stay silent. my profile kinda exploded because people were like, ok, so he's talking about it. let's see what he has to say, but it's not like i'm a political specialists are expert. i'm like you said, i'm a youtube or i create content. i'm an entertainer, but at some time i have a responsibility to my audience, to tell them what's going on and help brazil to achieve democracy. again, at least what we believe is the best way of democracy. so we are very afraid of everything that he's doing. and we're very scared of the way he's dealing not only with the pandemic, but all the other matters, the, the amazon forest and all that. and it's, it's going to be really, really hard for brazil if he wins again. if he gets reelected next year, and there have been attempts to silence you for your criticism of both scenario, including legal action and threats. can you tell us more about that?
10:46 pm
oh yeah, absolutely. i. i've been receiving death threats for at least 2 years now. i had to take my yeah, i had to take my mom out of the country because she received that threats and we had to send her to porterville. at the same time, they tried to use the judicial system to silence me. a police car came to my house to, to handle me a paper saying i had to go to the police station to because i was being framed for crimes against national security. just because i was saying that both sonata was a genocidal, which he has just to day. we were facing an investigation now in brazil, that is going really well. and our politicians are trying to figure out what happened in the beginning and why brazil has almost 500000. that's due to covert since we had so much time to prevent those deaths and nothing was was done. and
10:47 pm
today, just today we had an, a specialist called natalia possible knock. and she said that 3 in every 4 deaths in brazil could have been avoided. and when we reached 500000 deaths, 375000 that's could have been avoided. and this was based on a study that was made by professor pedro, hello. so it's, it's really unperceived dental and he tried not him, but his son tried to use the, the law of national security to silence me because i use words like genocidal and well and are always fun. who is behind these threats? no, he's behind the he's actually behind the the attempt to silence me using the digital system. he went to the police and he filed the, i don't know the, the right term in english where he filed the persecution. i don't know the word and
10:48 pm
the police came to me and it started, it really started. so the chief of the, the cherice. i don't know if that's the word with the sheriff. he decided to go forward with this. and then the judge, who was a good judge that this was not acceptable and stopped the process. and they, they tried the other things. they tried to connect my name to pedophilia. they tried to connect my name with all kinds of atrocities and monstrous crimes. just to undermine my, my reputation, and this is what i've been facing and dealing with for the last couple of years. it's been really hard, but at the same time, right away, 100 starts. i wonder though with all or did you ever consider just keeping quiet every single day, but i just can't. i just can't it's, it's much bigger than me. it's my family is, is supporting me they, they are supporting me at the same time. they're very scared of everything that is
10:49 pm
going on. but if i just stay silent and that's exactly what they're trying to do, they know they can associate me with crimes. they can't go through with the plans that they have. and there are only 2 possible ways for them to, to deal with me is death or need shutting up. so i won't shut up and i hope i don't get killed sleeping. that's too serious allegation has been a pleasure having you on the show. thank you so much for joining us on d. w. thank you. thank you. the as the european union and the us discuss further sanctions against the government of bella. ruth, and you don't commentary looks at the peaceful resistance to alexandra christian because regime and the films premiering at the berlin film festival in the presence of exiled opposition leader atlanta to cannot scan. it focuses on the lives of 3 actors and he called simply courage, scenes of peaceful protest in dollars last summer. caught in the documentary
10:50 pm
courage. today, they look like images from another era. ah, the film for those 3 actors turned protested dennis puzzle. marina. last summer, they were full of hope for change. now all 3 live in exile. they decided to leave barrows because it was not possible to walk and to live in this fear feeding. and they decided to moved to key if the right now all of them are in excited and give the participation and then demonstrations against other russian leader, alexander lucas, chicago. both parties and dennis were arrested, entertained for 15 days at a prison in minsk. the prison plays a central role encourage here is where families got to find out the face of their
10:51 pm
loved ones arrested or disappeared by the regime. as soon as they were released, dennis and tom left the country. 2 marina was the last to go mm me. even before the recent track down the actors were banned from performing after staging, place critical of dictatorship, making art into the other of seems impossible at the moment. but polio believes his country need artists now move or never ah, it's a to try to help people to or can, their fear overcame their trauma, really depression trauma and to say, please not lose the hope and date of the cultural correspondence. scott, iraq. pharaoh joins us now from the heart of berlin for more on germany's entry in the berlin last summer. special scott, the documentary courage shows the grim realities of opposing the bela risk and
10:52 pm
regime. what were your main takeaways from the film? well, i mean, i guess it says it all in the title. i mean the film really shows the, the courage of ordinary belushi owens the hundreds of thousands of them that went to the streets last summer. the peacefully protest tried and overthrow alexander lucas shank goes regime watching this still now a year later though, it also touch touch of sadness that you watch it because of course, that peaceful protests didn't succeed in toppling the regime. and in fact, it was crushed. and so many of the people that we see in the film are either now imprisoned or, or an exile. though it really struck me is how the lives of these 3 actors turned activists appeared to have a change irrevocably. you know, in the ways that you just mentioned, i understand that you had the chance to speak to some of them on the red carpet. yes, 2 of the main actors in the film are, here's
10:53 pm
a night for the premier of the film here at the bailey now that i was able to speak to them and i was struck both by their resilience and also by their for me. surprising optimism, they both said that though things have gotten much worse in bella crucible though, they both had to escape into exile. they both now live in kiev and ukraine. they said they were still hopeful that real change could happen in bella. ruth and they were saying now the emphasis has to come from outside the book called for, for sanctions real top sanctions from the you from the u. s. against bella. ruth, to really force the regime of alexander lucas shan't go out and to force a real democracy into their country. okay, so they're there with a clear political message as well as their bravery. but this is scott, what does the competition look like? do you think courage stand the chance of clinching the best documentary prize? yes, i think it really does. i mean the, the top prices say the golden bears have actually already been given out an online
10:54 pm
ceremony in march. but there is still this prize of best documentary and i think courage is such a film of the moment. it's so so critically important not just people of bella, ruth, but i think to anyone who speaks up for freedom of speech and freedom of the arts in europe around the world. so i think it's very, very good chance to win. and even if it doesn't, this is a film that really demands to be seen by as many people as possible. so it's great that has this amazing a platform of this summer special ability and a red carpet tonight. so let's talk about the barrel and i'll obviously looks a little bit different this year. this is an open air event. and due to the pandemic, what difference does that made to the mood there? i have to say it's completely different mood. i mean, the bad. another usually is in the middle of winter i'm. i'm freezing on the red carpet every year to have it this year under open skies and the beautiful summer weather of berlin is really, really magical, especially after the year we've had,
10:55 pm
with the pandemic year and cinema's being close and be impossible to see movies in a normal way this feels like, like coming out of hibernation, actually almost come back to normal. and i think that's what the building i was trying to do is trying to get that signal that maybe things are coming back to normal and maybe the magic of the movies is coming back again. fabulous. got, well, enjoy your time there. and scott ross borrow in berlin. thank you so much for your reporting for us. and that was the day as ever the conversation does continue on line sophie. do check us out on twitter at d w. i'm clear, richardson in berlin. you can also follow me ask claire reports for me and the entire team making this possible. thank you so much for joining us. use

11:02 pm
sure that we're beating the pandemic together and discussing how will never have a repeat of what we seen, but will say that we're building back better together and. and building that green on and building met sarah and building that more equal. and honestly, more and more gender neutral and peptide more feminine way. how about that? in order to age global recovery from the pandemic deleted are expected to pledge 1000000000 vaccine doses to the world's poorest countries. they say a joint approach is the best way to both rebuild and tackle the climate crate because they know that the but all we need everyone across the world to want to work together, especially on the issue of climate protection and biodiversity, where we will never find solutions with that in china. but when it comes to the
11:03 pm
environment, climate activists are concerned. but it's all talk. hundreds of protesters gathered cornwell calling on leaders to take action. so we've got a situation post code it with developing countries drowning in debt as a result of it. failing to get vaccines and failing to get the climate finance, they need to help them mitigate their emissions and adapt to the climate crisis. so it's a situation of staggering inequity and we feel that this needs to be brought to the attention of the g 7 leaders. they want to make sure that the g 7, don't forget the climate crisis is well grappling with the panoramic recovery called the day that we can talk. we'll focus on how countries you can join forces to confront such challenges. and now let's bring in doctor iowa de i live in boucher and go deeper into the issues of g 7 countries donating those vaccines. co
11:04 pm

11:05 pm
showing that sharing technology waiting intellectual d. i'm also looking at a normal back commission time because you can't have that without being able to get them into people. we need jobs and all that. we're not just the entire world, asia, latin america, vaccination, and financing allocation. i do want to ask you about that. we lost the line audio just for a moment there by understand, it sounds like you agree that patten's should be lifted to enable more countries to produce vaccines at home. what are your thoughts on last? i think should be to be way more frankly. how do we love the right thing? the rich country, pretty high countries of the world from the right thing to the beginning of this. it wouldn't be under the pressure it allow increase to producer and back the finish
11:06 pm
might have just whatever you can, if that hadn't been hoarding back, wouldn't now be in the desperate situation where a very the only way i can come to the well again, not just in india, but also a part of africa. asia, parts of south asia within a month when these intellectual property property like cancer technology. so that all the while you know, asia, latin america, everywhere, people come producer back and not be so reliant on one or 2. what would you say to critics who say that waving patents, remove the incentive for firms to develop them so quickly when we do have a global pandemic? i think what essential, quite horrible. right now. what the g 7 spoke about trying to hide the
11:07 pm
talk was coded in trying to change 5 for the pain points. one of the conceptual quite right now today people in that 1000 over the world and the other ones makes essential partners for tomorrow. we can't be thinking about profit for their time when people die trying. it's barbara coming back bigger and stronger, all the time in different corners as well. but down to very good india, it's not again, you know, really ramping up in countries like the united kingdom. and i was seeing it also for go. which about team members base of the african union. yes, this week are racing toward the way, you know, we're seeing a 26 in number in africa from country to oliver in the last few weeks. but the people in leadership, in government, it's not a time to be talking about. we need to make sure that we have a life, but before we talk about making dr. iowa day, alex, you know, boucher,
11:08 pm
thank you for giving a sense of the urgency of this crisis and for joining us on the union. let's take a look now. it's moved the other stories that are making news around the world. hundreds of israeli and palestinian activists have demonstrated against the possible eviction of palestinians in jerusalem. the neighbourhood has been the scene of frequent classes over a court case in which a group of hard line israeli settlers have arab families removed from their homes. german finance minister shoals has reportedly paid 2000000 euros to get information on suspected attack dodgers. news website dash ego says his ministry sought data on several 1000 germans with a real estate interest in due by information could expose a significant exposed significance tax. and any sign of further eating of the lockdown restaurants in austria are now allowed to stay open until midnight. the

11:10 pm
very lucky to get well after coming here. there are many who didn't get this opportunity. there are babies with complications that couldn't find their way here from many parts of t gray. and we'll expect more when the roads open up. but the roads remain closed even to many of those providing aid. it's going to be dangerous and barn for us all be working other than mine, communitarians have been killed as far every day. we have our teens, this is the re fi and jose partners. everybody has tried to operate north, find them. so challenge to checkpoints, they're increasing the hostile some to grow residents brave the threats. farmers who can't flee risk their lives by coming out to their fields. they ignore soldiers orders to stop killing the land. they know that if they do not fall, they'll have no food. when i'm not selling a home because of the insecurity, you can see the land is not suitable for farming or even the ox in finding it
11:11 pm
difficult. the land should have been in its 2nd or 3rd round of tillage after the day because we haven't had peace, we are unable to till all we can do now is just scrape the surface of state university a local despite mounting criticism at home and abroad. if you appeal, government insists it's providing the needed access for a deliveries, but the patients who make it to the hospitals tell a different story. well, let's get an update from the world of soccer now. and the european championship has kicked off in rome with italy, bidding turkey 3 and nail in the tournaments opening match. mark oregon from the w sports is here to tell us all about it. mark looks like a great start for italy. was the win as convincing as it sounds, the wind was, was very convincing, clear, and it was actually quite an emotional night, all told and room. and we had started off with the elaborate. so i might say over
11:12 pm
elaborate opening ceremony. and, but there was actually a very touching moment when andrea bocelli, the italian singer sang ness and dharma, which was a kind of stone try to tell you 90 the world cup in 1990 for a lot of older guys like myself. and that was a nice start for the evening, kind of set the tone and it was normal, half time in the game. so we kind of started sluggishly, but once the, the goal and end from them at all, there was only gonna be one when i really and the dominant performance from, from italy really in the 2nd half. and the 1st time that ever scored 3 goals in a european championship match, which given that one the tournament might be a little surprising for some people. absolutely. okay, so an emotional start with some great moments in it. mark this time it was delayed for a year because of the pandemic. how relieved you think organizers will be that it's finally underway? i think very relieved. possibly for more than sporting reasons, some of them and things like that coming into play,
11:13 pm

11:18 pm
able to help poor ones, speed along the way to their own recoveries. how likely is it that we're going to see a concrete plan come out of this? we will have to wait and see if stephen indiana seems that there is a compromise to, to a more inclusive and equal recovery. but it will be, this is easier said than done a big play, just like donated 1000000000 doses of, of device seen at risk of falling short. there are many other issues to consider here to for example, a timely distribution while different a virus strings keep gaining momentum. so some keep also as you mentioned, pushing for, for support for a waiver on the intellectual property behind the scenes as a much more effective way to help for countries but promotion to go industry and some, do you have a members have opposed it? so obviously, any compromise that from the g 7, it's better than nothing. but critics, i point out that so far, western leaders are not get up to the job of tackling the worst public health
11:19 pm
crisis in a century when it comes to poorer nations. i was another item that's on the agenda this weekend is the global corporate minimum tax. that's a big pet project of the us. how badly does the us president job, i need this. it needed a steven global minimum tax, a place actually a central role inviting suspend implants, specifically when it comes to infrastructure and older social initiatives here in the us way even more than just increasing the u. s. corporate tax rate, the from the current 21 percent to 28 percent us initially propose. but up passing that the corporate minimum tax in congress could be very tricky. it might need to 2 thirds of support in desinik, not simple majority. meaning some republicans will have to support it and currently, no republican senator is up to increase the taxes a specifically these one which is consider as anti competitive. so there is
11:20 pm
a still hurdles a have i believe that to see that global minimum docs past year in the us, the steven keeping her eye on everything happens this week, and jose luis the haro in new york. thank you very much. all right, let's take a look now. some of the other business stories making headlines. chinese ride helen giant, d d. she to she has filed the list, it's chairs in new york popular app, dominate the market in china and has over 50000000 drivers. it could be one of the biggest appeals this year. there are reports the listing could raise as much as $7000000000.00. the keystone excel pipeline is now officially dead. the company behind the 12 year effort to build an oil pipeline from canada. the united states has pulled the plug on the $9000000000.00 project in january, joe biden revoked at border transmit permit, british border transit permit rather over long st. any concerns the burning its oil sands crude, its oil, crude, oil sands, rather wood, worse and climate change. lebanon is still mired in economic crisis on friday fuel

often damage for end up on the global mention that i slack a nissan of walk through this is that only creates additional competitive disadvantages for our companies, which are global leaders in terms of standard stop fuel, vincent, but those high standards often don't apply in the countries where german companies have their production facilities. the supply chain law will make those companies take responsibility for their suppliers abroad and for decent working conditions. germany and france are leaving the charge and an e u y gloss not far behind another criticism of that laws that it doesn't go far enough down the supply chain. here's the w's, chelsea, delaney in frankfort. the aim of this law is to force german companies to take responsibility for every aspect of their supply chain. so for the moment, natalie of mine in africa to the moment it goes into a vehicle here in germany. in reality,
11:24 pm
this law will not actually be that stroke require larger driven companies to monitor their direct suppliers. but those below their direct suppliers, they won't have to regularly monitor only they receive some sort of complaint about a human rights abuse. this is in part because the critics say would be impossible for a company like diamond that has he 1000 suppliers to monitor every supplier to their supplier. but at the same time, many critics say this really reduce the impact of the supply chain law because many of the human rights abuses we see take place much lower down the supply chain. d w financial correspond to chelsea, delaney, they're in frankfort, paypal, google pay venmo. all mobile payment and money transfer apps all based in the u. s . and while there have been efforts to develop a european competitor thus far, they've seen little success. but now there is a promising candidate in spain. bomb the saturday evening in spring,
