6:07 am
all over explains. the hunt for a coronavirus vaccine is one of if not the great scientific searches of our time but there are those who don't want to see a vaccine found and wouldn't accept one if it was here in germany which was swift to tackle the initial wave of covert 19 coronavirus skeptics have been demonstrating for months. the latest polling shows more than a 3rd of germans would reject and mandatory vaccination against covert knighting these concerns continue to exist despite mandatory vaccination being on the cards the government here has said again and again that when
6:08 am
a vaccine becomes available it won't be compulsory if. the government is accused of secretly plotting to introduce mandatory vaccination i want to repeat the chancery said yesterday there will be no obligatory vaccination against the coronavirus at the same time germany is now facing a lack of u.s. supplies of rendez if you're an antiviral drug used to treat coronavirus patients the german health minister has pressed on the manufacturers to get shipments to europe using access to e.u. markets as a stick and. we don't have a huge inventory now we only have a few 100 doses i expect an international company like gilliard to understand that you can't just cut access to the e.u. markets and high prices for other products and also expect supplies to europe and the european union in the united kingdom the ante vacs the porters have a strong foothold as well a 3rd of brit said they would definitely not get
6:09 am
a corona. the job or they were unsure about the vaccination it's not clear what their views on antivirals are we asked londoners in what ways they're willing to protect themselves and during the pandemic some people refused to get their children vaccinated against all common sense i don't know but i would i be grateful i've been fact sake if those sorts of things happen and i can't be happy to think that i haven't decided that that's what i need more information everyone's going to have it these days. i would say i'd want to read all the information 1st and work out how how it works and whether there was side effects from it but i think on the whole good side of the facts in comes available no politic interested probably probably won't have it is to preserve a working parent because we're trying and it's thanks to vaccines that smallpox has been eradicated that means holes technics and polio aren't common killers in society social media has been blamed for the rise of the anti vax movement but the
6:10 am
platforms themselves say they are actively working to debunk false information about vaccines i report uncovered an industry undermining by being a school committee will be developed a consequence of social media companies both power and profit from misinformation we reduce vaccine misinformation in news feed we don't show it in search results or recommended to you on facebook or instagram we don't elaborate in ads and we connect people with authoritative information from recognized health experts coronaviruses like covert 19 offer to kill or tricky to develop a vaccine against but as long as science and fact are equated with conspiracy and feeling by some developing a vaccine will only be half the battle there are those that will have to be convinced that it's beneficial at all peter all over all. meanwhile in the

6:12 am
well it seems the neighbors of those who have died of the virus have complained about their fears of contagion. were there to sort of curb or you had to take the cotton out this morning to show the problem i called the mayor's office to govern this office to come and bury him because they had not made the burial possible we have no other choice but to leave it here where the virus spread to all good people the relatives who thought were just haven't come to test them. i call the ambulance to come and check on him my dad was short of oxygen they didn't feel like coming and then minor what am i going to do. 7 the death person has been hung for 7 days there are kids the elderly people who live where he died within him to be buried we don't want him in the house anymore they haven't done
6:13 am

6:17 am
welcome back the u.k.'s announced it's resuming arms exports to saudi arabia despite admitting they are sometimes used for war crimes in yemen that's what i wanted to want to ask a partridge for more on this now ok kate great to see you what more do we know about the your case decision. yes the u.k. government house announced britain is to resume selling arms to saudi arabia despite assessing but the country could be using them to commit war crimes the undertaking that my princessa gave to the corps that we would not grant any new licenses for the export of arms or military equipment saudi arabia for possible using yemen falls away the incidents which have been assessed to be possible violations have no occurred a different times in different circumstances and for different reasons. well in june 29th teen the court of appeal ruled that the government had acted unlawfully by licensing the sale of u.k.
6:18 am
made arms to saudi forces for use in yemen without assessing whether incidents in the conflict had amounted to breaches of international humanitarian law well since the bombing of yemen started in march 25th in the u.k. government has issued export licenses worth $5300000000.00 pounds including $2500000000.00 pounds worth of licenses relating to bombs missiles and other military goods and human rights organizations are angry with the u.k.'s decision to resume arms exports. this is a deep blue cynical move to restart business as usual when it comes to arms sales hold the government considers would describe a 5 years so i do it aerial assault of yemen which has seen numerous examples of civilians killed in schools hospitals funeral holes and marketplaces as a set of isolated incidents. well in march 2015 a saudi led coalition intervened in yemen against who's here rebels who are fighting the internationally recognized government and control large swathes of
6:19 am
territory but humanitarian groups and the un quickly accused saudi led forces of breaching international humanitarian law including bombing schools hospitals weddings and food supplies. so. well the decision comes just a day after the u.k. and that sanctions on individuals and organizations that abuse human rights
6:20 am
including saudi arabia. we make good on that pledge bringing to force the united kingdom's 1st tolerance human rights sanctions regime which gives us the power to impose sanctions on the on those involved in the very worst human rights abuses right around the world and this country makes it crystal clear to those who abuse their power to inflict unimaginable suffering we will not look the other way you cannot set foot in this country and will seize your blood cribbed grades if you try . well the u.k. can use the law to bar entry to individuals believed to be responsible for human rights abuses as well as to stop money moving through the banks and cut violators off from their profits while the sanctions target north korea's a secret police lie on mars military leaders russian officials and the senior saudi intelligence officers believed to be involved in the murder of journalist jamal khashoggi while at the same time agreeing to resume arms sales to saudi arabia so within 2 days the u.k.
6:21 am
government seems to have plunged itself into a high stakes di lemma agreeing to sanction a country for human rights abuses and resuming the lucrative arms sales to that country the court says could commit them. thank you for those details that kay partridge. policy adviser on arms campaigns from oxfam loss in butcher believes yemen has already suffered enough and the u.k. is only making matters worse. this is something that we hadn't expected to happen the news came out of the blue especially the day after sanctioning saudi arabia for human rights abuses as far as oxfam is concerned there is a pattern of events which amount to serious violations of international humanitarian law happening in yemen that by the saudis by other members of the coalition and by the haiti's as well and these arms sales should not go ahead the naval blockade which is cut yemen off from the world for 5 years now allowing minimal amounts of humanitarian aid and food through is also in some aspects
6:22 am
a breach of international humanitarian law and of course the bombing has led on to . things like you know the lack of clean water meaning the world's biggest cholera epidemic the vast majority of the population are going hungry some on the edge of starvation famine so the yemen is really in a desperate situation the last thing it needs is the u.k. government to be. in. some softness tree and playing with words and delivering mobile homes. after 10 months of anti racist protests and demonstrations against the police in the u.s. the country is starting to see a spike in violent crimes caleb maupin has been looking into whether there is a connection. america is getting more violent the murder rate has increased by 16 percent and it's rising this recent june there were $205.00 shootings in new york
6:23 am
city making it the most deadly june in almost a quarter of a century other cities like chicago atlanta and philadelphia have seen a surge in violence. please let me go add another ingredient into the mix the ongoing pandemic and people are starting to think about ditching the urban centers and moving someplace safer but all of america is dangerous right now if you go and look a smaller cities where there is rule of law and holding people accountable they a safe big cities with large populations a dangerous right now because of systemically liberalism some places are taking
6:24 am
this increase in crime very seriously the state of georgia has declared a state of emergency due to the increasing murder rate amid the black lives matter protests peaceful protests were hijacked by criminals with a dangerous destructive agenda now innocent georgians are being targeted shot and left for dead the slowest since must be stopped and order restored in our capital city this comes amid a barrage of calls to defund or disband the police to redirect their funds toward social services and reduce the police presence new york city's mayor bill de blasio has already agreed to a $1000000000.00 cut from the city police department $6000000000.00 budget all of this puts extra pressure on an demoralizes the police many fear that in this atmosphere the crime rates could spiral when you fill up by your police department you're going to see crime increased and that is what has been happening in. the
6:25 am
major cities in the united states chicago atlanta even birmingham of course new york city where the murder rate is now out of control they're already backing off their calls to defund the police the new catch phrases are now instead of defund the police you're hearing reimagining the police you're hearing reinventing. the police the cost to defund the police were a childish fantasy of the democrat party police officers are out there trying to do their jobs they're doing with horrific. situations and in the larger cities you hear about oh we've got to get rid of guns and we have to call in social workers what we need to do is go back and be tough on crime and tough on criminals crime rates are already known to go up in summer time but it seems like the summer of 2020 is setting some records. artsy new york thanks for joining us here on
6:26 am
c.n.n. to national went back at the top of the hour with overlay to headline. when i was still seemed wrong. but i will just don't call. me. yet to see how it does the ethical and in again because the trail. went something and find themselves worlds apart. just of the common ground. time after time corporations repeat the same mantra sustainability very important to excel or a transition to sustainable prize board sustainability space for man or
6:27 am
a more equitable and sustainable world. they claim their production is completely harmless. lovely. companies want us to feel good about buying their products while the damage is being done far away this is something else this let's keep going down even and i'm . listening we didn't dream and then we understood superman in.
6:28 am
a low end welcome across are all things considered i'm here a little with the rest in charging up the lane maxwell jeffrey it takes a new church what about the timing and the specific indictments what kind of defense can be expected is a deal in the cards and will justice be served. sucking the g.o.p. epstein saw god i'm joined by my guest alex christopher r.-o. in athens he is the director and writer for the dram dot com and in milwaukee we have jennifer a master at she is an attorney and author of the new book about a lawn unveiled all right crossed out rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i was appreciate it ok let me. it was going to blow up you jennifer you've seen the indictments i mean there are 6 indictments 4 of them have to do with trophy 3 years. and 2 perjury charges rounding
6:29 am
proceedings in 2006 why do you think it's these specific ones you think it's because. the prosecution thinks they can get this i mean it's like a slam dunk. well one reason that i think these particular charges are here we have a new federal laws that extend the statute of limitations for victims that are still alive and so of the victims that have come forward that have been involved in the litigation they're still alive they'd be in late thirty's early forty's and it would be able to member said make a very credible as a victim the 2nd reason i think there's a lot that can be said for these particular charges there are certain prosecutors i know myself i've looked at these kind of questionably because they could have charged under a much harsher sentence given what's come forward but it's not uncommon during a grand jury proceeding or an indictment before an indictment is not uncommon when
6:30 am
charges are 1st lodged if those aren't leaked to the media for them to try to strike a deal with somebody before or to strike a deal with somebody and i think in this case we might be able to deal that was already previously struck with her and the indictment being proof of the u.s. holding up their end of the bargain where you did just the program and one. day what it is it is your feeling is it your feeling. that there were negotiations behind the scenes going on over the last year because my it seems to me want to go and say something with your gut feeling oh my god feeling is that there absolutely were and i think you know we're not used to this in america a leak free investigation we're really not used to our so our agency is now not having any leaks but apparently this was a leak free situation i think it was for many reasons one this is a woman who has multiple identities multiple names passports connections all over the world she could have easily escape certainly we saw.
