6:02 pm
a 700000000. package to help deal with the crisis the buildup began after turkey said on friday that it would no longer prevent asylum seekers from attempting to get to europe. surging violence in syria's province athens has reacted angrily to move greece is now turning away anyone attempting to enter illegally and has suspended asylum applications a decision that the u.n. refugee agency says lacks any legal basis ortiz devinsky the latest european commission president to delay in the border towns between greece and turkey she took a military helicopter and was assessing the situation from above in the air now as she announced in a press conference that the e.u. would fully support its member state of greece in this time of crisis she talked about the frontex rapid intervention team being brought in this would mean. aircraft and border guards all coming to greece to shore up the efforts here she
6:03 pm
talked about some 7w7cw euros in fact to support greece in this time of tension with its neighbor turkey and she talked about implementing and triggering the civil mechanism protection mechanism this is a mechanism that's used by the e.u. when one member state is in a time of crisis and it's to improve prevention and preparedness and response to a disaster by a member state that gives you an inclination as to how serious this issue with turkey is being seen as have a listen to what else had to say frontex is now getting ready to deploy a reppert border intervention team secondly we can provide financial assistance of 700000000 euro to greece those who seek to test europe's unity
6:04 pm
will be disappointed turkey is not an enemy and people are not just means to reach a goal. we would all do well to remember both in the days to come now all this comes after in the last few days turkey's president who once said that chicky would no longer hold the borders under that agreement that was thrashed out by the e.u. in turkey back in 2016 the basic idea of that agreement was the e.u. was to plow around 6000000000 euros into 8 until he would shut the borders from my coming through into the e.u. this was sort of at the height of that migrant crisis that started around 2015 will turkey's open the borders and in the last days thousands upon thousands of migrants have attempted to come into greece i'm sure to give you a sense when one of the border towns now and just behind me where you might be able to see a police vehicle many of these vehicles around the border towns ready to detain any
6:05 pm
illegal migrants who attempt to cross the border we know that in the 24 hours up to choose the morning around 5000 attempting to do that most return back several would detain and sent to the detention centers or correction facilities now the greek prime minister has also been visiting this region today and he has said that the e.u. and greece in particular will not be blackmailed this is a blatant attempt by turkey to use desperate people to promote his jew political agenda and to divert attention from the horrible situation in syria the 10s of thousands of people who tried to and to greece over the past few days did not come from a blip they have been living safely in turkey for a long period of time most of them speak turkish through and through. and europe will not be blackmailed by turkey over the refugee issue now what's really
6:06 pm
interesting is some of the people i've spoken to on the ground have said that the migrants that have attempted to come through over the last few days have not been from syria they've been countries such as afghanistan bangladesh from pakistan for moon rock go easily and they were at pains to stress that this is not as a result of the turkish military operation in libya in the north of syria something that president a suggestion is now he was speaking in the last 24 hours suggesting that this situation could get so bad that millions could be coming towards the borders a lot of since the moment we open our borders the number of those who are headed to europe has reached hundreds of thousands that will be more soon this number will be a 1000000 well there is fear amongst many e.u. leaders who see ticky as using people as political pawns boucher in chips to try and pressure the european union into supporting not military operation in that
6:07 pm
the north of syria so far european allies of nato allies have decided not to do that but this people essays what this is all about this is not about turkey not having enough money to look after refugees and migrants in its own country this is about pressuring the european union to step in and take me to turkey in the spine in the north of syria people a few risk but the reality is on the ground there are tensions here and people are afraid that this could be the start of a repeat of 2015 migrate to a crisis or so you see here of everyone is worried walking greece greece does whatever it can now it's the europeans who should intervene because this is the border of europe what's happening is not right to end it is not right it's all this is stalled europe should punish him. all of us here are you nag me here. we have a strong belief in our soldiers our police and we are very optimistic since the migrants haven't crossed over yet and of course we are positive about the house we
6:08 pm
are waiting for from the european union. you know to me this will did you might see her is that really close to the border with turkey where the 1st to receive the bulk of the migrants and to greece for the land border i think we're in a tragic situation as neighbors we should have avoided this there should have been another way a diplomatic way and not end up in this situation which is on the brink of creating a war between the 2 countries. lawyer and a former austrian m.p. johan's who huebner believes the e.u. should take responsibility for the crisis along with turkey. they won't help address the situation they're giving financial aid to greece which is fine because greece with the. refugee crisis but it won't help as long as europe doesn't give a clear signal that it's not accepting people from all over the world to come to europe because they look for a better life one seeing the european union doesn't meet this so far is that it's
6:09 pm
to a great degree their fault because they have imposed the most crippling sanctions against syria so it's no wonder that a war torn country. and the people don't see any perspective in staying in the country or returning in the country the situation will even get worse and so the relation was turkey will get worse there will be public pressure to punish turkey for allowing that though it's not quite fair i must admit as turkey is really bearing the brunt of the crisis though he is also liable and also responsible for what's happening because they are part of the game in syria but they are as well responsible as europe which did a lot to stabilize the regime without having any able to in the tubes and which did a lot to keep the economy at its knees and impoverishing to population and syria. to the u.s. now super tuesday is in full swing across 14 american states where voters have been
6:10 pm
choosing their preferred democratic presidential candidate as the favorite joe biden has received a major boost going into the latest leg of the race after 2 of his challengers dropped out and gave them their support that has been seen as an attempt to undermine the campaign of a front runner bernie sanders. i am ending my campaign and you are saying joe biden i delighted to endorse and support joe biden. we need to unite our party and our country i'm looking for a president who will draw out what is best in each of us and i'm encouraging everybody who is part of my campaign to join me because we have found that leaders in vice president soon to be president. super tuesday is when the largest number of states head to the polls on the same time more delegates are chosen then on any other day around a 3rd are up for grabs those delegates will then go on to make
6:11 pm
a final pick front and center for the democrats is a battle between former vice president joe biden and progressive progressive senator bernie sanders who is currently out in front with an 8 party delegate lead even he thinks the establishment is coming after him there is a. strong. anybody in this room. establishment is going to go the political establishment is going to go to everybody taking to twitter donald trump accused of the democratic party of attempting to stop their front runner from getting nominated again the president was referring to the nomination saga in 2016 which he says was skewed in favor of hillary clinton and he wasn't the only one. pete is out all of the super tuesday votes will go to sleep each oh pardon great timing this is the real beginning of the dems taking burning out of play no nomination again the democratic leadership is fighting hard to stop
6:12 pm
boni than to stop trump. just dropped out of the presidential race. this is all about stopping the democratic party's moderate or shall we say establishment wing coalesces around biden to stop bernie it's starting to look a lot like 2016 when the same wing rallied around clinton it is to the republicans advantage to see a brokered convention a chaotic democratic race here on out so you have to wonder since saturday night and looking at a thing is internal was there actually a conversation listen you're young you've got a lot more support for you in history and history and politics and maybe if you help us out here make sure that our hard days are already a long established line that you might have a place in 20 years and we won't forget super tuesday also marks the 1st time the controversial billionaire mike bloomberg will be on the ballot or to scale up and now looks at the choices the democrats are putting before voters and what they all
6:13 pm
have in common as we enter the thick of the race for the democratic presidential nomination 3 major contenders stand out now of course the candidates are emphasizing what is different about them however they do have some things in common all 3 are white all 3 are male and all 3 are in their late seventy's meet the grandad's who are contending for the democratic nomination. joe biden is 77 years old and he's the youngest to many he reminds them of an easygoing grandpa with a bad habit of forgetting people's names please come back in less than 13 years or . our chad thank you very much all right it's christian but anyway i just heard chris i don't know i just heard shock from our superstar thursday and i want to thank you all. very well i'm rushing it on now he's known to get a little touchy feely with women he says that's because it was acceptable back in his time and it's an old man habit that he just can't break.
6:14 pm
we're going to cut from you remember that awkward feeling you had when your grandfather was telling anecdotes about his rough and tough younger days well of joe biden becomes president you might as well get used to it and corn pop was a bad dude and he ran a bunch of bad boards and i did you know and back you know his day job things have changed one of the things you had to use if you used pot made your hair you had to wear a bathing cap. and series up on the board would list message he asked are you off the board right come up and drag you off when you came off and he said i'll meet you outside now sometimes the stories just get so weird to wonder if he's maintaining his sanity i'm not going to notice to do surely receive medical school stupidity would be
6:15 pm
a rich there's generally county executive county executive. closer to graft slightly here we were in a situation i had a president ask me the head of the kitchen. now hoping to take out joe biden is former n.y.c. mayor mike bloomberg now michael bloomberg like many grandparents is known for his generosity. $21.00 of those were people that i spent $100000000.00 to help elect all of the new democrats that came in and put nancy pelosi in charge and gave the congress the ability to control this president i bought i got them he works really hard to be hip with the kids even knows what a meme is. which my screen i think this. big gay ice cream is the best many suspect he may harbor some racial prejudices.
6:16 pm
you know. and then there's bernie sanders the elderly socialist originally from brooklyn he's the kind of grandpa that everyone seems to be scared of can either coronavirus or bernie sanders be stopped they are bernie bolsheviks they are bernie brownshirts that's what they are and their revolution will result in death and misery another whole to do more or another whole accost or whatever we call the next great socialist atrocity totally transform society firing squads dungeons torture and exile so he's been pretty clear that's what he supports many standards how many times bernie sanders family has apparently urged him to move into
6:17 pm
a retirement home but he decided to run for president instead one thing about bernie though is that despite his age it's the young voters who love him the most. we already both generate should know both the ridge show grass roots good now sanders critics love to point out that despite the fact that he rants and raves against billionaires he's certainly no poor man himself sure laugh all you want but it's very possible that one of these 3 elderly white men could be the next president of the united states yes if donald trump fails to be reelected it's all but certain he'll be replaced by someone with white hair white skin and a deep voice and while that does not fit the liberal democratic party message about inclusion it also follows a longstanding u.s. tradition media analyst lionel thinks that for a party that pitches itself as diverse it's big 3 hopefuls are anything but. when
6:18 pm
you deal with a party that speaks to 1st lady and biden mary gender did fluidity you and ed demographic heterogeneity year and new when young men. and then you end up with this the older rich guy he don't care about diversity they don't care anything they want to win everything about this election it has been the source of great comedic relief for me that being said i want everyone to appreciate what we have right now because we have one of the most seismic collapses the democratic party is about to. enjoy now we have 2 people so you talk about between a rock and a hard place between this solar and corrupt us the democratic party is absolutely
6:19 pm
petrified. as the impassioned climate activism of the swedish teen gratitude and burger continues to inspire millions of young people around the world resistance to her movement is also growing she is controversial 19 year old you tube or naomi a save it has shot to popularity in recent months for her advocacy of what she calls climate real ism she has denounced what she says amounts are to environmental alarmism and in the process has been dubbed the anti gretta over her controversial positions artie's down hawkins spoke to naomi bit about why she decided to weigh in on the debate and what she is hoping to achieve. most people on the site of climate alarmism if you will label us the climate deniers and that's a term that i really dislike because it sounds like we really look into the science we don't do our research we just hate the planet just wanted to destroy this and
6:20 pm
we're just selfish and ignorant and that's not what we're about we're about being scientific skeptics and looking into more sensible yet ways to improve the environment to be more enlightened values when it comes to interacting with nature and so yeah that's what climate realism is about it's about scientific skepticism and having more discussions in the scientific spirit was a german media outlet that started this thing in the 1st place and it was to. portray me as kind of this evil anti-christ on the left on the right and i really just like that but then i thought let's just have fun with it and let's just play in this label and well if the media wants to portray us anti-graft of them go ahead but you don't state for the anti-gravity you stay for the night you come for the anti-graft and you can stay for the night because i am not against i think she is
6:21 pm
probably a super nice individual innocent in all of this and i don't have anything against her it's just that she is not about the science she's basically just about panic and telling people to change their lives entirely i demanding that government control the lives of all of the people everywhere and that really has nothing to do with science and skepticism anymore and that's really what's so awful about all of this. illustration of the growing concern a new poll in the u.k. has found that almost one in 5 children in the country are having nightmares about climate change out of what 2000. youngsters surveyed around 17 percent also said that fears of an environmental crisis are disturbing their sleep or causing them to lose their appetites. again shared her thoughts on the findings. that's what we
6:22 pm
call climate alarmism because people like you talk too much and i'm sure she's a very nice guy and i don't want to shame her in any way and she's innocent in all of the soft sell so i believe. they are spreading panic amongst so many young people they are tearing apart relationships because people are fighting. about. who is right in all of this who's wrong in all of this and we're not allowed to speak anymore so people are genuinely worried about the planet and they think that their grandparents and parents are destroying this planet and that's so horrible to see because it takes away their hope for the future and so many young people have their own passions and would like to pursue that happens in the future and work what a great job and now all they're concerned about is climate change that was really sad to me to be honest there's clearly an element of panic about about climate change not only among young people among many hurdles as well and or worried about
6:23 pm
what's happening do you think that's really do you think that's unjustified everybody seems to believe that just because there's this great consensus out that allegedly 99 percent of scientists agree that climate change is real and climate change is manmade of course can't change it's real climate change has always been real at the time it has been changing for millions of years but we need to be more precise in our questions and ask things like. you know missions actually that destructive to the planet are they really. the cause of global warming or are there other factors playing into this like for example that the sun times on the climate and what to feed back and watch the feedback and whatever grayson's. there are so many other factors that are way stronger than just 0 to missions so it is ridiculous to believe that humans could have such a big impact on the climate and we cannot mass with nature and that way at least
6:24 pm
the competition that i've come to doing my own research people have said that. it is just being used to use use a project of environmental activists or you know as you but as you said left wing is some people have said you yourself for a project of the opposite of environmental conservatives how does that make you feel i really hate that this notion is out there because i know for myself that i do everything on my own i write my own speeches but never ever actually interview i mostly don't know that the people that i work with from manhattan institute for example they don't know when i write my speeches they don't read it before and post so it's all just based on my own mind and i'm having fun with all of this i have i started my you tube channel on my own this is basically all just what i'm really passionate about and i don't get tons of money for what i'm doing i live at home my family and i get a lot of support from my mother and my grandmother and that's just fantastic and i
6:25 pm
wish that people would just listen to my main miss message instead of reading what the media has to say about me and my funding and what goes on behind the scenes i'm happy to debate and one all the time. the case of 3 russian athletes in switzerland could be about to trigger a wave of appeals against doping allegations their legal team claims that critically important documents contain forged signatures by whistle blower gregory rod chunk of the head of moscow's anti-doping lab at the time sports top court in santa has now demanded olympics chiefs explain themselves we heard from a lawyer for one of those by athletes. in response to a statement about the forging of mr rajan core signature we received a document that was submitted by the i.o.c. to see a ass it is another statement by mr rajan with his signature according to this
6:26 pm
document he knowledge is that he did not sign any of the previously submitted documents with his own hand allegedly with his permission he's electronic signature was used however the conclusions of experts suggest that the electronic signature was only used on 29 documents regarding the remaining 7 documents the experts concluded that the signatures were applied by another person that means they were falsified. the athletes were hit with lifetime bans in 2017 after they were implicated in an alleged state sponsored doping scheme they were stripped of all the silver medals that they wanted the sochi olympics 3 years earlier the biathletes appeal began on monday at the court of arbitration for sports in response to the claims of their lawyers the court ordered the international olympic committee to explain who signatures are on the documents the court of arbitration for sport panel of arbitrators has accepted the statement about food signatures in
6:27 pm
i.o.c. documents and has ordered the international olympic committee to provide an explanation within $24.00 was the i.o.c. hasn't commented publicly on the allegation that keith ignitors were forged the athletes are seeking monetary compensation for the damage to their careers their lawyer says it decision is expected in the next few weeks and of that he is optimistic they will win the case. i want to point out that the question of religion go signatures is not our only argument we always expected that our affiliates would be absolved of guilt by cia as on the basis of our the evidence that we have collected however the question regarding signatures arose on the eve of the court hearing we initially got concerned regarding one particular signature after that we conducted a fool examination of all the signatures as well we have claimed there was forgery and expect that this will be taking into account in the future see as decision
6:28 pm
which is coming in the next few weeks. reports in the u.k. say there has been an alarming surge in suicides among british soldiers who served in afghanistan with over a dozen taking their lives in the 1st 2 months of this year alone the country's minister for veterans is now working to provide additional care for former service personnel. i want to understand exactly what stage we could or should have intervened in that process it's unimaginable it's a tragedy for the institution the army that i'm so proud of where fully our eyes open and ears open. 14 veterans have taken their own lives in the past 2 months alone most served in a particularly army unit involved in britain's mission in afghanistan between 200220142 find out what might have led so many in such a short period of time to take such
6:29 pm
a desperate step we spoke to iraq war veteran martin webster. the numbers the suicide from my from my own regiment we've lost nearly a full detail that's like 15 soldiers from my regiment the 1st time infantry have taken their own lives i can give you a quote from dr kent drescher said during the vietnam war the american soldiers were only ever allowed to do 2 years operational service to the country says we now have u.s. veterans served on $8.00 to $10.00 tolls of africa and iraq that's like an experiment this is what he said that's like an experiment that's never happened in human history the rates of p.t.s.d. about time in 2001 presents the present sense of we are now starting to see the effects of the iraq and afghanistan war such as captains taking their own lives people with really good pensions with no reason whatsoever on paper saw it for the rest of their life in a sense of having a good pension taking their own lives now doesn't for me this i'll be back in 30
