10:32 pm
quality and respect, respect to our he was watching on cbs in the united states and to all of you around the world. welcome. we begin the day with parents saying are as want to rental e scooters. the french capital was the 1st city in europe to embrace the schooners, hoping that they would help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. that was 5 years ago. overtime you scooters proved very device for some they are a quick, easy, and fun way to get around the city. but for others, a nuisance and a danger. with too many reckless riders antwan's side was in april, the people of harris voted to banish the mobile businesses from the streets of the french capital that ban. it took effect today or more. now let's go to pears. i'm joined by our correspondents on you if on the card. so he's good to see you. you've been out and about on the streets affairs today. i mean, is there
10:33 pm
a noticeable difference when in some ways um, you know, it does feel like the end of an era given that, you know, paris was one of the posts of these 5 years ago to really embrace this, a free floating shade east. go to scheme, you know, it's sort by saying is kind of an over the years, the 15000 rental, east hotels and power. so pretty been the fixture on the streets. actually, i have to see out on the streets in central paris where you normally see, you know, loads of tourists and young of the schools, you know, losing ground on these shed does around the same things around me around the many museums there. today things did feel and look a bit different. so to be quieter did see seem that something was missing. i know that it turned out for the referendum earlier this year was very low. the result was about 90 percent of those who did votes and that they wanted to band the scooters. but, and when is there a sense there in paris that the, the, the decision to ban is scooters was given with resolution. i mean that it was
10:34 pm
a big mandate, a cow when you actually write the 2 notes in that referendum in april. it was incredibly though it was below 8 percent on that river. that number was actually quite controversial because, you know, the critics of all the, the middle powers on the done google call the rest of it to the said, there was hardly any publicity around it. they said there was no electronic voting system in place. and so what essentially happened is that all the people who turned out to go to fulton know because they were largely older people who work regularly, who really hate the school does. and many of the young people to actually use these machines seem to have the state of weight. so i think it's a bit difficult to see just how broad the support is formed this band on, on going to the school does. and next year, parents will be lympics, and one could imagine that you scooters would have been ideal for, you know, the influx of tours that you're, you're going to see now you're not going to have rental scooters as an option. is
10:35 pm
that being discussed about and what are we going to do now as well, that was certainly something that was discussed by the rental companies that were actually renting a business with us. now in some a while just reporting the story, i did speak to the ceo of one of the bean benton, a flight of thoughts. and he told me that the city of how this is essentially shooting its sense of the foot by, by bringing in the band missing here before the palace lympics. where you're right away, we will see millions of, you know, extra visitors coming to the city of the city of paris argues that, you know, there are questions about the kind of the positive impact of having competition. and so they see that there are other alternatives that people will be using, like, you know, viruses seem expanded by cleans that on. many of these winter providers also provide renting electric bicycles. and so there's hope that they will be, you know, multi codes. the fact now, let me just ask you to before we've been out of time, but if, if the east coast were considered too dangerous in paris,
10:36 pm
what about the binds and regular bicycles in paris is paris. a bike are friendly by anchored safe city? well, the city administration has slightly made efforts in recent years to expand the network of my cleans, but i have to say as somebody who, who lived in you know, the drilling capital. but in, for a long time, i understand a bit wary of writing go by to because the speak to simply a, you know, quite narrow and i'm really heavily congested. but i think there is a difference between these electric. if you don't, you school does. i'm the bikes, i think of the school does what any thought the control the see, right. since they were introduced back in paris in back in 2018 and it was really a lot of angled. sure. among what many ways to do. so as a young people using these east coast extremely recklessly on the splits leading to, you know, kind of dangerous accidental conclusions. well, we're glad that you're safe and always what, where your helmet,
10:37 pm
if your bike sewing. so when you find a car in paris is always on your thank or what i'm doing now by martin becker. he is the head of public policy and communication at void. that's an e scooter. and a bike rental company who joins me tonight from here in berlin. martin is good to have you with us. so paris his band is scooters. it is this just the beginning. i mean, are you worried? the other cities such as berlin that they will soon follow that good evening and thank you for having me. i'm no actually, um we, and i don't expect that there will be another city across germany are in europe, which follows the example of paris. why i think that's the cost in germany. legal framework is way different than from and also what we hear from cities, politics authorities that they decide to integrate. um you school to
10:38 pm
operations, shop mobility into their transport policy in the cities. so actually they try to solve for many issues rather than many hollows. tons, but not actually n as a, as a chairman of the talk to him shut mobility, which just age. i'm the industry association for an east coast are renting. um we, we hear that from all our members, and actually there is no city which states that they're going to ban the school does. uh that they are kind of took any action on that. actually martin, you lived here in berlin. you, you've seen people, you know, speeding down the sidewalks on the scooters of either 2 or 3 people on the same scooter. it is dangerous, it can be dangerous. what, what are you doing about that as well? actually, yes. the alpha cause issues um as speeding or pretty riding what you just mentioned
10:39 pm
or riding on the sidewalk, which is also on that which is also published. and of course, this is something which we try as an industry. we try to solve this technology. so all of the operators include a technology to detect this kind of behavior and then also to address this with the users or also actually to bend them from using the platform. but in fact, it's also true that user behavior, it's always subject subject to the driver itself. so he's the responsible person. and this is something which we have to address also in the context with the police and the authorities. and by then so um, but the figures. yeah, yeah. i wanted to ask you about the figures i'm just looking at the, the casually, the depths of seniors from east scooter accident in the u. k. between 2000. it's over 20212022. and it just in the last year the number of fatalities tripled
10:40 pm
because of the scooters. and that, that is obviously not a fluke it. and it tells people that there are problems. is it possible that this is just not the right email ability solution for right now? maybe we should be sticking with bikes. and e bikes, maybe the scooters or something that that we should not be pursuing this quote actually. um, looking at the numbers um uh, i think to understand the number to send the correct great and not only in the case, but also what we see here in germany. it's that you have to put those numbers in the context of the study, new rising number of users and brides actually. and then when you look at the whole picture, you'll see, and this is also, i think, which a more recent studies will show us that he's writing and the school does not more
10:41 pm
risky than uh, writing a bite or writing a cop actually. so there is no, no evidence to me, but it, but it's not as, as popular. is it? i mean, in a recent survey, in berlin, 80 percent of the people here said they wanted scooters, band, people like bicycles. apparently they don't like e scooters there. there has to be a reason for that. so well what, when you look at the number of views there still clearly see there must have to be an increasing and also the number of rides of mess up really increasing across germany. so um, there is a very large use, a group in germany which likes to ride is good us. and um, when you look at the, um pause you just mentioned. um, i think it's fair to say that these are not scientist, scientific both. and what i think that happens,
10:42 pm
it's say the same thing happens like in paris, that was 72.5 percent of the electorate voting. actually only voting on that. pause back then. you'll probably only get those who don't like you stood us. yeah. this, i think there's a shelf of the population who don't like that is to do what is it as a producer? equal is pedestrians. right? i mean, why don't we all right here in. yeah, but we see, we see that here in britain, really, you know, the big problem is that the scooters can be parked anywhere right. where you leave them when you don't need them anymore. that's. that's what makes them unique, but that's also what makes them dangerous in the public sphere, on sidewalks, for example. i mean that that's part of the problem or yeah, but i think you shouldn't though, besides the problem actually. um, when you have discussions about bikes or e bikes, especially also then you find always the same arguments that's dangerous, that people don't um, kind of stop at
10:43 pm
a red slick know that they ride on the sidewalk and so on. and this happens, that's true. and the people who ride in the school just no way different than writing a call or riding a bike. and so what we did, the challenge is that we have to actually educate and work on user behavior in general and, and, and on the roads. and in germany and the other thing, what we can do is uh by using technology to push to use us in a certain behavior or binding them from using the, the at the he coats if they have a lot of kind of. um find for example from the police, then we can ban them from the platforms. and this happens and also kind of developing the infrastructure, the by infrastructure that this is also important. and the most important thing is that we get the east coast of the sidewalk. when they are parked and i think this is something what you see and valid and very successful and just pulled up. what
10:44 pm
city is like going back and ox book decided to do that. they're going to implement a station by spotting which means, okay, got they use us is only allowed to in this parking spot to put the vehicle. and then they are off the, the, the sidewalk and then i think you'll have it to your call. we need the sidewalk for the pedestrians and it needs to be free. yeah, yeah. i mean, i think that's a good point on that. that's what i've experienced. i'm going home at night, for example, on the sidewalks. if i'm on my bike, lots of times um, i can't even see the scooters on the sidewalks until it's too late. i mean, it's that has to be addressed. this is about public behavior to isn't it? and that people taking responsibility for their meeting, their mode of transportation. um that's something that has to be addressed. that possibly has not been addressed. right. you can't just leave stuff hanging around.
10:45 pm
oh, absolutely, absolutely correctly and uh were on the same page with that and that's why we stopped to educate. they use us from the beginning from the very 2nd when they start the onboarding process on the platform to every rides. and they have to take, for example, a photo at the end of every ride to prove that they have popped those good job correctly. and as they have them then they will get to fine. and i think there are several steps which can be taken to educate the users, to match them into a, to a special behavior and a responsible behavior. and then also, as i just said, we need to develop the infrastructure, which helps also to support a certain behavior, which we would like to see. okay, martin becker with void. we appreciate you taking the time to talk with us and final question, are you a, a scooter man or an a bite man as well?
10:46 pm
actually i'm using both. i'm, i'm driving my own bike. um i like the bikes you screwed up and i also trust cost. all right, that's the great, right answer martin. thank you very much. thank you. all since the started approaches invasion of ukraine, the government and keith is pressure. it is western allies to deliver ever more advanced military equipment and weapons. now ukrainian president volume is zalinski has boasted of what could be a game changer, a long range weapon made in ukraine, which the landscape claims and has hit a target 700 kilometers away on the president. really comments on you creating attacks inside russia. he appeared to allude to a devastating strike that took place earlier this week. the attack damaged several military transport planes in the western region of the scope. and it's roughly 700 kilometers away from the ukranian border. a weapon that could, with that range could potentially put mosque out within striking distance,
10:47 pm
raising the stakes as keep tries to bring the war home to the russians. franklin, which is a senior lecturer in strategic studies at port this university is a former u. k. military intelligence officer frank, it's good to see you again. maybe you can enlighten this here. what kind of weapons do you think president zelinski was referring to a great expense? it's probably a drone coal. they both out and ukraine will, beaver, and english rates as a range of about a 1000 kilometers 20, small payload. but obviously looking from the, at the post up at the circle of battle damage assessment, pictures of scope field. it's very precise. it's not at all surprising that the ukrainians have developed this. they have hard for decades, a tradition of high level of capability and developing the best tech in the old days of the soviet union. how to now in eastern europe,
10:48 pm
that'd really capable. i'm not surprised at total are able to develop this and they will go on to develop more. is this a game changer in the work? it could be a i'm sorry, hesitant to name any weapon system, including ace. that's a classic ones from last year, which we can all go through. this particular weapon is not a game changer. as i say, it has a very small payload. but the process is very important. what we see is ukraine developing and continuing to develop it sounds in distress, indigenous psalms in district, and the very keen to demonstrate to have that capability. and one of the things that i saw when i was in campbell, on several occasions, was a level of innovation the level of innovation. brent is absolutely remarkable that all like the national junior suspect, which would many of us see by the way in on our screens years and years ago. that's like over the last few years at high tide, ukrainian high to been turned it was and then flung out what tools russia at that
10:49 pm
very capable of this concept. yeah, i mean, i think this is what are the 2 big surprises for, for the public regarding this were the 1st surprise is the poor performance by the russian military for the past 18 months. the 2nd being what you're telling is this is that the ukrainians have been developing sophisticated weapons and they, they, they have the capability. i mean, i don't think many people on the street would have said ukraine up the top of their head is a country that is dedicating resources to weapons that can be used and they were successfully against russia. this is the country development actually so, so they use space for okay, so this is a country that built the largest that crossed in the world and operate and still operate. so this is the country which has the, the, the highest level of technical achievement in eastern europe still does. and it was saving the results. now it's a brit how brilliant population, the fine education system, a network of other institutions and companies that produce and competition will
10:50 pm
continue to boost its comments. say, it's not surprising. it's all ready. if you look at the history of you can produce the best tanks to nails somebody. yeah, i mean, it's impressive and you're right when you know the whole story, it makes sense. ukraine's military intelligence chief now claims that the attack on this scope was carried out from within russian territory. i mean, what do you make of that? i would uh, i don't know if you don't sit down with the donald fruit to be referring as a is an extremely capable individual himself. i'm positive, his job is deception seats and that's been searched have been searching for me. i don't know. all i point out is there that the drug has the right to be fired from ukraine. they won't be there. they called them inside, inside russia. frank edwards, unfortunately, we're out of time, but we appreciate as always your valuable analysis. frank. thank you. have a good weekend. my pleasure. thank you. the
10:51 pm
a protest are taking place across spain, over football boss. luis will be honest and his controversial world cup chess. crowds turned out to condemn the office to grab me remember spain forward, judy or muso and kissed her after the final. and most of it says that the case was not consensual. the spanish sports court can now open investigation inter would be all this. there are calls for him to resign. spain men's team head coach has apologized for clapping. when we're be honest, insisted that he would not step down. so we still have one day said that he made a mistake by doing that and that he deserved to be criticized. feel we must be fit at these questions fairly apologize. gimme a call to people who know me, that it is know that the coughing does not represent my values. my way of thinking me for all my way of acting in life. i was always during the side of the quality
10:52 pm
and respect. i want to now to sports journalist december hunter joins me now from barcelona. it's good to see you look kind of this in the big picture for us 1st. it's been almost 2 weeks since the women's world cup final and we're seeing this controversy in spain. you know, grow and grow our to yes, absolutely. because it is now going beyond just a case. it is now a matter of social justice, many feel and it has really spread on the whole me 2 movements and a lot of women in particular feel as though enough is enough. they react to that case and see it as a form of sexual regression. and that of course, is directly linked to a law that was put into place last year with it's called on the yes is yes and it's around consent and i think the women and in particular who have voice are concerned of all of this. they feel tired because it shows an example of just how normalize this kind of behaviors and how it read us. it is the fact that it happened in such
10:53 pm
a public form. and yet there are still people who do not believe jenny are most of when she says that it's not think central. and so there are a lot of people feel as though this is a time to really take and look at society and look at these normalize behaviors and actions and ways of speaking. and really try to say, well, the things that have been kind of been planted on us for a very long time since we were born effectively, the way that it has been so deeply ingrained with us, we have to really take a look at it and say well, actually a lot of this stuff isn't ok just because it's how it's always been done. and so you have a really big, sort of reaction in terms of now, what was coverage about this, of course, but really this debate around women and the way that were treated with them society, especially in a context of an abuse of power in the workplace. so has been very interesting to see how this has been developing, and as you say, it's going strong and it will only continue to do so as well. i suspect now that the news has also come out just in the last hour to that the court have decided not
10:54 pm
to suspend the research, to be honest, even though he is. and of course, the spend is by sci fi. yeah. maybe if you could explain that to was of the spain's sport court has opened a case against for be all his for, and i'm quite here serious misconduct. but he won't be, he won't be suspended the cause of serious misconduct. why is there to so in order for him to be suspended, it has to be considered a very serious misconduct. and what is being reported here is that the decision was made based on the law that's been in place since the 9 is there, isn't use for itself. but because it's not fully developed as of yet. and it hasn't fully been put into place reportedly. that's why they made this decision based on the law from the ninety's, which says that it was based on 2 things. of course, in this particular case, it wasn't just about the case. it was also a bouts. and what he did in the balcony for anybody who was working, you may remember where he grabbed himself in the, particularly
10:55 pm
a private place. and so what they've said is that based on this law and that lack of decor and this only considered serious misconduct. whereas however, and abuse of power is considered very serious, must contact and for that reason they often for the very serious one as it relates to him grabbing his lower regions. and that's why they've ultimately decided that it's very, it's sorry, it's on a serious misconduct, rather than very serious. so because of that, the court below him, the csp which is the high call for sports band, cannot actually suspense. and however, the minister for culture and sports miguel, except that has said that they are going to try and ask for a suspension to be put into place. but given this ruling by the ti, 80, which is the administrative court, the highest court, in this particular scenario, they can only suspended for a max and then or bind him rather from maximum of 2 years. so at this point,
10:56 pm
that's kind of where we at this, we'll definitely continue to roll on and then we'll continue to investigate. but as of right now, as of today, he cannot be suspended sports journalist, etc hunter, joining us tonight from barcelona summer. thank. thank you. well, the day is almost done, the conversation continues on line and remember whatever happens between now and then tomorrow is another day, have a good weekend the
