walk and feed my family. i don't have time to think about what i will do if something happens with your good nickelodeon. when, if something does happen, the u. s. has vowed to support key f. ukraine is pushing for sanctions against russia. but washington says, now is not the time russian agents in ukraine, but as to the sanctions are the most important thing we can do is to use them as a deterrent as a means of dissuading russia from engaging in for the regression at once. sanctions are triggered, you lose the to turn effect. so what we're doing is putting together a whole series of actions that would figure in present putin's calculus, moscow denies plans to invade its neighbor. yet, up to 100000 russian troops have amassed at ukraine's borders over recent months. the u. s. and the u. k. are sending military aid to ukraine with baltic nations set to follow the u. s. secretary of state, and e u foreign ministers are meeting dia,

video link, monday to discuss a unified response to russia. or joining me now is the w brussels bureau chief, alexander, fun, nomine. oh chandra, you for ministers are meeting today. they're in brussels, their u. s. counterpart entering, blinking, we'll join them by video link. what can we expect from that gathering regarding the crisis in ukraine while this crisis is of course, front and center on the agenda here. and i, i think that we can assume that the foreign minister is very eager to listen to secretary blinking, and to get more information about his meeting with the russian foreign minister. love, rough day. we'll talk about the crisis. what steps had to be have to be take next and they will be a statement at the end of the day, a statement that is an aiming to 50 you unity. and of course, to,

to send a strong warning towards russia. and there will be, i think, 2 things that we should watch out for. one of them, whether they ministers will defined what would trigger massive and severe consequences that term they have announced. and the other thing would be interesting to see what the statement will have anything, any mention of the military training mission that the you is considering in ukraine . as mentioned earlier, the u. s. is ordered. is embassy personnel ah, some of them anyway out of ukraine, each top diplomat was asked for his response on that. let's have a listen while check with the lincoln willis play nash did regions of this announcement. and we're not going to do the same thing because we don't know any specific grievance. but psychology, we're lincoln really for much. and i don't saying we had good time with eyes as far

as the negotiation going on on the a going on. i don't think that we had to let to stay men and leave so alexandra us is pulling some of its people out of ukraine. doesn't sound like the e. u is inclined to do the some same thing, but are other countries not likely to follow suit? now well that, that is very likely actually, and so we also have to assume that said, member states have their own contingency plans in case that they are going to see a confrontation there is. there have been report stats. germany might be a planning to advocates. it's embassy stuff, unconfirmed reports, and it will be very interesting to see whether dead german foreign minister will have anything to to say about that. well, you mentioned germany, ah, well,

berlin has refused to supply kiev with defensive weapons. other countries in nato are doing that. what role is germany playing in this crisis? well, as you know, as the biggest economy in the european union, germany is a power house and together with friends, for instance, it's close partner. they have, they carry weight. so when it comes to foreign policy to trade or whatever area in the european union. however, so far germany has faced some criticism because it's what has been called, it's an ambiguous position on ukraine. they have been reluctant to provide ukraine with weapons because the government is saying they do not provide any weapons to a country that is confronted with a crisis. and so, even though the german chancellor sholtes sat stats in case of any russian aggression against ukraine,

they knew not stream to pipeline could be canceled. his government is still, you know, for example, saying that we have to consider economic sanctions. but cutting of russia from the international and payment system, swift might be too much going too far. so as a, as they said, again, it will be very interesting to see what the german foreign minister has to say here . alexander, thank you for updating us on that. that was our brussels bureau chief alexander from them, and they're in brussels. but let's catch up on some of the other stories making headlines around the world today. western diplomats and taliban members are meeting in all slow for a 2nd day of talks on afghanistan's growing humanitarian crisis. a taliban spokesman called the talks a step to legitimize the afghan government shopping. will osman made the comment

after meeting with women's rights activists and human rights defenders. video disagreeable, armed men in sudan have detained human rights activist, a mirror osmond after a night time rate on her home and sedans, capital cartoon that's according to osman sister. her detention comes after what act of his say has been a campaign of arrests of civil society and pro democracy figures since military takeover in october. french fashion designer tele mcglenn, has died with how's dramatic designs defined haute couture over several decades. his work was worn by celebrities such as diana ross, madonna, lady gaga, and hardy b. land was also a dancer, acrobat, and abbey, as an avid body builder. he was 73 years old. german chancellor left schultz is set to hold talks on the pandemic with regional leaders

today to discuss the way forward as alma kron cases surge in germany. some hollow titian's are calling port and restrictions as the new variant appears to cause less severe disease. and most people, but some doctors, especially those working in hospitals, say it's too early to get the all clear. a typical scene in one of germany's emergency rooms, an incoming patient is tested immediately for coven 19, and receives the news they're infected with al micron. germany's latest wave has cases spreading faster than ever. and many health workers are also expected to catch the virus. the university clinic and regensburg is bracing for impact. ma'am for them so much was it that we were able to bring in students. we have a part time staff who have increased their workload and we have teams that work and rotating shifts, teams does understand that the fest in and she can gob at it. how the stuff other dr. marcus zimmerman doesn't just lead his hospitals emergency department. he also coordinates with other clinics and physicians in the region to see enough if we're

still seeing growing infection rates without the staffing to reflect that. the legal, the weekly video conference of doctors and clinics is an important means to directing the flow of patients. if one hospital is full, they can use the network to quickly find free beds for days. every one in regensburg who's tested positive for coven 19 has had the omicron variant. despite this, fewer among them need in patient treatment. i've is cindy with foot and swung the other. it's a bit the quiet before the storm was we expect the number of incoming patients to grow and quickly me as, but i'm more worried about the staff than about the patients. vendetta. if we have growing numbers of staff out sickles, then treatment at our hospital will be stretched to its limits on the house fun. on dickinson, coleman, and regensburg the helicopter unit flies and fixed teams to minimize the significant staff loss. if only kron cases continue to soar, if been caught up being at a 3rd with i'm optimistic that we will handle it. i think we're well prepared. we know where to put our patients and who knows in maybe this wave will miss us on

monday in flag plaque to cloth of in conklin, hotels with flexibility and co operation. germany's medical community as standing together. despite the challenges faced, it goes without saying that shutting schools is bad for learning, but new research suggests that the pandemic has had an even worse impact on education than previously thought. at its peak 1600000000 children and young people were affected by classroom closures. 500000000 of them had no access to the tools necessary for remote learning, and the warning is this many as 70 percent of children and low and middle income countries may not be able to read and understand a simple tax. by the time they are 10 years old, our reporters marie kristin berza and ge, while suarez have been to meet children in brazil, struggling to keep up and one teacher on a mission to coax people's back into the classroom. teacher carlos,

eduardo currently spends more time out in the city than in the classroom. he's searching rio de janeiro poorest neighborhoods for school dropouts, so they can get back to learning. when you got pharma, you get to the only way to change the reality and, and the cycle of misery barclays. if you can use your one. then in this the valor in the west of the city, eduardo needs an escort for safety. schools were closed here for around a year with lessons held online, but family than if avella can often only access the internet via cell phone, if at all. so many students of last contact with the school. edwardo bumps into one student who dropped out of school before the pandemic. almost when i worked at the scrap yard, dismantling air conditioners in brown. he's not sure if he wants to return. he and many others have to work because their parents lost their jobs during the pandemic

. but they'll struggle later in life without a high school certificate. director andrea lima is happy that some students have been coaxed back to school. like, bruno, he became his families main breadwinner, a few years ago when his parents fell ill. now he manages a job, an school. he's a keen student. greg, either i prefer to be at school with my friends and all the activities are just staying at home with his eyes. now, angelina has a new worry that the alma kron very interval for schools to close again in washington to my presence. that would be a tragedy. all our walk would go down the drain and it would be really frustrating for the students to they teach it harness eduardo agrees. school he says is more than just a place to learn. it provide structure and a large number of students get a hot meal here. often the only one of the day i get them off the bus actually,

kids here at school asking for food roughly. that was very painful for us to see what thought rather than the bridge. we're just near by eduardo, meets another student working at his mother's food, stand the 17 year old and says he's finished the school year. them to my i like to be a business man. and this is the reality of a neighborhood done a reality that the young people could change by getting a good education carnis. eduardo wants to do his part to help them succeed. spray in roger murphy here he is a meritus professor of education at the university of nottingham in the u. k. and he joins us from oxford. sure, thanks for being with us. a professor murphy last year you warned that the pandemic impact on children's education was not being taken seriously enough. is it being taken more seriously now?

not everybody. i don't think. no, i think it, you know, there are so many issues after the pandemic that governments having to deal with that. i fear that in many countries, the education problems aren't being addressed as a top priority there or massive inequalities in access to education around the world. has the pandemic exacerbated those inequality is professor or has the boom and online learning maybe helped even things out of it. now i think one of the very sad things about the impact to the pandemic has been that it is exacerbated the gap between the privilege children and underprivileged children. we know that gap is widened. we know that it's the disadvantage to, as you say, perhaps, couldn't always access remote learning is suffered most with the on the kron way, we could still see more locked downs and more countries, more remote learning. what advice would you give to policy makers as they try to

balance health concerns and the need for education? well, i think the pandemic is been a wake up call for us to just to remember how important education and schools are. you know, they were taken away from us in so many countries for quite a period of time. and i really, i think the call to governments is to remember to prioritize education, to funded properly in so many countries schools struggle teachers struggle learn a struggle because the, the governments have not funded what they're doing properly. so there's point number one point m a to about remote learning. i think it's been very helpful and we should celebrate the fact that schools have had to be nimble footed and to adapt to what they do when they had to close. and there's an awful lot there, remote learning has done that has been good. and so where it, where children have been able to access remotely, i think, you know, there have been real pluses in gain. so we can take those forward into the new normal after the pandemic,

and make more use to promote learning even when schools are open. so remote learning is helpful, but beyond that, what would you say needs to happen in order to approve the availability and quality of education as we move through this pandemic we'll teach is just such an important resource. and i think in the teacher training is something that governments don't always a prioritize, you know, so very well to, to give teachers the initial training when they go into action. but actually they need to keep learning all the way through. and this example we've been talking about about uses of remote learning is a good example. many teachers have never really used remote learning. before the pandemic came along, we need to consolidate that learning. we need to share the best practice. we need to look at how to share resources across schools. so i'm funding education. well, funding schools, well, funding teacher training and professional development teachers is another key aspect customer for thank you very much for talking with us today. that was roger

murphy ameritas, professor of education at the university of nodding. here some other developments in the pandemic world wide. chinese authorities have lifted a month long locked down on the northern city of sheehan. the move comes a day after commercial flights resumed to the city with 13000000 residents. tough restrictions for frances unvaccinated gopal, unvaccinated population go into force on monday. restaurants, bars, sporting events, and long distance trains will be off limits without a job or proof of recovery from cobit 19 and pacific nations of curiosity and samoa have entered lockdown after international arrivals tested positive for corona virus . the islands had almost completely avoided any cases. for 2 years. reports are coming in from the west african state of burkina faso that soldiers have detained president rock. come boy. earlier, the government has deny,

barracks in the capital plus disrupted internet connections. prompted fears of a to the defense minister was quick to get on the air to deny the government had lost control of mobile unit. it is, you do come with the law. the government has confidence in the army which remains committed to the republic. we ask the people to remain calm to carry out their duties. we are following the developing situation so we can provide information on the real reasons for the shootings who handle. so i can tell you that for the moment everything is under control and we ask our army to continue to support our republic and carry out its mission to protect its territory and its people execute . it will show the potential not till it were in the populace. but his words did little to calm. the protesters who rampaged and set fire to the ruling parties. headquarters, more demonstrations sprang up across the capital in support of the mutilating

soldiers that up at the lack of support in fighting the islamists, the soldiers demanded more resources and that the military top brass be sacked. all of this, just a week up to 12, people were arrested on suspicion of planning to destabilize institutions in the country. let's bring in d, w, west africa, corresponding a monkey or koya, a market where we're getting reports that president rock cover. reg has been detained. we know where he is now. well, quite a fluid situation there, terry isn't. it was really escalating very fast. we do know currently that he's been detained as we get a local reports of media saying. and of course, if you go on social media and now it's all, i was with that same information that he's been detained and by that, by the military of cause we do not know how he was taking it. however, we do know that even though there was coffee, but the we hours has been

a lot of activities in terms of helicopter fly in and of cause and military men, a vehicle seemed going headed towards the direction of the president, but private a resident. so we believe that it is endowment that he's been taking am currently with the rundown, which is the military ab, as you do know, as fluid as these windows, as we'll be getting more information. but currently that's what we do a military. okay, this appears to be a military coup. has anyone within the armed forces claimed responsibility or claim to have seized power? right. that, that's what we expect to see as this is developing, even though you do know the government did say there was no at that. it's quite in control and taken charge, but we are seeing essentially that that's not exactly true. i buy this arrest that we've seen. and what to expect that in the, coming out as if you like as this is developing that someone should say, well,

we are now in charge, especially from the military because as it is, or we clearly understand that the military are not happy how the country is been led and they want to really take chad as far from what we've seen in recent time. we've seen the people now supporting of course, the military to say yes, we're really wanted to come at rescue if you like. i'll take charge. so we are waiting as is developing, hoping to see who now is in charge, who takes charge now that president cavalry has been arrested. we've seen mutinies within different military units in burkina, faso, we've also seen unrest public unrest. what are the main grievances within the military? and among the people fries, particularly the military, asking that they be given more resources to be able to fight, you know, this militancy that we've seen in back in our fossil and, you know, to people. i also say it, unfortunately, that's couple re, has failed to be able to take charge of the security situation. and they are asking for more resources as well as to be able to get that done and to move you know,
