4:04 pm
washington d.c. until the inauguration of joe biden set to take place on the 20th is completed after that inauguration is completed they will hopefully then be stepping away but emotions are very very high let's remember donald trump is the 3rd president in all of us history to be impeached andrew johnson was impeached but remained in office bill clinton was impeached but remained in office richard nixon was facing possible impeachment and then stepped down that will trump has already been impeached once and that was over his phone call with zelinsky the leader of ukraine this will be the 2nd impeachment trial donald trump has faced now democrats say it's important to carry out this impeachment because of the fact that they don't want donald trump to run for office once again they say it's important to remove him from office before his term is completed to lock him out of american politics from here forward now it's a tense situation in the country emotions are still running very very high we've
4:05 pm
got the military deployed in d.c. in our case anything gets chaotic quite a tense situation all eyes on capitol hill as it appears donald trump will face yet another impeachment trial before he is scheduled to step down and data will be watching the developments closely in the coming hours they stay with us with take a look thank you for the update. well as lawmakers attempt to remove tron from the white house tech giants have already over so raise the president's online presence you chip has now joined the likes of imus and facebook and twitter and suspending social media pages as well as purging thousands of his followers claiming they couldn't find violence it follows last week's storming of the capitol building in washington d.c. which some leading politicians and mainstream media have branded as domestic terrorism well as the social media giants continue to crackdown on the president i spoke to legal internet on politics experts about whether the platforms are indeed
4:06 pm
too powerful. they just won an election they're going to see how far they can push this this is a stress test to see how far the law will go how long how much people will tolerate and are going to go as far as they can because drunk with power of they know which way the wind is blowing donald trump is no longer going to be in the white house almost all of these companies face antitrust suits that are going to be decided by the by department of justice and so now there is going to be less of a priority to maybe make these arguments internally that donald trump and his account should be protected but these are self interested actors it is all the years that they are now controlling pretty much the entire communications system all over the wall but it will be a mater of telling the full censorship pull be move on to other part of the credit party companies like twitter facebook anonymous and can do this to their own president and they do it anywhere in the well to any government they don't like. oh
4:07 pm
certainly so. they that the largest problems within these companies is that there really is no actual basis for which they are operating there is no bible there is no constitution there is no their terms of service are often edited and malleable and even then subject vague enough to be subject to the whims of internal discussions within the company this it means that we have to rewrite the 1st amendment in this country because this is a quote private company that 99 percent of all the people on the planet use our laws are outdated and unless that is changed nothing will change at least in this country now the question who should be more the rating perhaps the thirty's this should be a form of duration but it needs to be transparent so the state of affairs at the moment they don't know who makes those were the rationed do you think the creative intended to end like this with
4:08 pm
a massive bans and censorship. of course absolutely look there was so much involvement in not only private equity but in government sponsored this was never intended to be good those dean going to giants and being exposed to all they actually are this is a mission statement to give everyone the power to create and share ideas and information into the glee without barriers now people used to believe this does anyone believe that anymore i don't think so the question that i have is are we now bifurcating the internet are we going to totally solve select from the point of adolescence or before or to be handed down by our parents to our children that we now only go on social networks and only interact with people and their only hosted on servers that either are liberal or conservative or possibly even more extreme versions of that that to me is a vision that i think is something that is closer today than
4:09 pm
i've ever known it my left foot. well the u.s. secretary of state's last big foreign diplomatic trip passed fallen flat the plug has been pulled on month visit to europe apparently because officials there are refusing to meet with him he is off france correspondent shall it depends. well the trump era is coming to a close not only with the social media blackout for. things such as you tube and twitter but also it seems the cold shoulder for many of the cabinet take mike is the u.s. secretary of state who is due to be in europe on wednesday for some high level meetings including with the general secretary of nato he said in a tweet just a few hours ago that he was reading looking forward to those meetings essentially his sworn song for his counterparts in europe but at the very last minute the plug was pulled on the trip more you will the u.s.
4:10 pm
state department says the player who was a man who didn't recognize the victory over by the u.s. election last year is now the man who wants to make sure that there is a smooth transition we are fully committed to the completion of a smooth transition process to be finalized over the next 8 days as a result we counseling all planned travel this week including the sixty's trip to europe it's a very different take. in the e.u. with apparently pompei you being pursued. and the european commission saying that officials didn't want to meet him they didn't elaborate on that but we've also heard from diplomatic sources there was a sense of embarrassment around the idea of being in europe given that although he had condemned the violence of those crowds who stormed the capitol building in washington last week he hasn't said whether president from being a cause a factor in that however the luxemburg foreign minister he said the trouble eg the
4:11 pm
move on the trumpet a criminal a political pyromaniac who should be sent to the criminal court he's a person who was elected democratically but who isn't interested in democracy in the slightest and it also seems that there were other reasons to save face and to cancel those meetings because had meetings gone ahead with officials in that there was a problem that would have. to be addressed and this is the compensation of the jewish families whose artifacts were stolen during the holocaust in the 2nd world war a dispute between it washington and luxembourg now for a very long time and give you that some have suggested that there is a story in the capitol building in washington last week where neo nazi sympathizers this could have put pompei you know in a bit of a pickle it seems to trump administration will come to an end not in a blaze of glory but in a goof of some very lax way. from a british diplomats dr william mallinson told me he thinks declining such meetings
4:12 pm
shows a failure of diplomacy. it is very rare that meeting to come to that short notice but it does show that currently relations or bow out between the european union as a whole and the united states policymaking a little trump administration in normal diplomatic factis meeting should never be cancelled what has happened is a failure at any rate in diplomacy my suspect in this case more than u.s. diplomacy because they will bear what's to come he wasn't invited at the last minute it was a i'm sorry to say blatant showmanship but pompei has showed himself he stuck his neck out and i think they've cut off his head. it's cruel to say the u.s. president elect joe biden has chosen who he wants to run the federal international aid agency u.s. and aid and is another era name some of the power previously served on the national
4:13 pm
security council and was barack obama's u.n. envoy revealing his choice biden explained why he wants power on his team. it's one of our country's most respected voices on humanitarian issues and i have seen both her passion and her principles firsthand there could be no one no one more qualified to lead those efforts samantha during her previous high profile government job power has faced a raft of ethical questions from critics she pushed for military intervention in libya on humanitarian grounds during the civil war nearly a decade ago she was also a strong supporter of u.s. involvement in syria and yemen both of which have succumbed to a devastating humanitarian plight now she shows she's the one to lead washington's mission to hail the world the united states has a chance to partner with and support people who are on the front lines in battling
4:14 pm
coven who are trying to build climate resilience who are standing up for the rule of law. standing up against inequality and trying to create a more just society humanitarian support democracy assistance economic development those are not nice to you know a foreign policy tool box they are critical. from a pentagon analyst michael maloof predicts the agency is in line for a major upgrade as a foreign policy tool for by the. well her position is actually accorded to biden is going to be elevated to the national security council level so that. gives an added importance as to how foreign aid will be used and humanitarian assistance will be used as a guiding light or upcoming foreign policy under biden and also shows that we might even go ahead and so far and weaponize that given. samantha powers previous
4:15 pm
experience and recommendations to then vice president biden and to obama the president libya was it was one of those outcomes yemen was another so if we if we need humanitarian assistance or. and couple with that would be human rights advocacy and insistence upon that in in any assistance that we gives. does that mean that we're going to go ahead and shoot it into people's heads again so this is a her elevation like this raises some important questions as to just to what extent foreign policy or foreign assistance will be used as a foreign policy weapon as opposed to give an absolute assistance in the future. still to come to the reality of covidien germany as coffins a scene proud to call it a you struggle to get nations to stand together on firm charlize think vaccine
4:16 pm
distribution is coming up next an aussie international. you're. going to talk about a word that means different things to different people depending on where you live what area of what school you went to that war is inflation. the world is driven by dreamers. and person of those with. dares thinks. we dare to ask.
4:17 pm
join me every thursday on the all excitement show and i'll be speaking to us of the world of politics or business i'm show business i'll see you there. welcome back europe is suffering a new surge in covert cases with france germany and spain registering some of the highest daily rates and 1st hitch emerging from one of germany's worst affected regions is highlighting just how bad the situation has become some 300 bodies are piling up in a queue for a credit story and sacks of a coffin stocked one on top of the other are often simply labeled with words like
4:18 pm
coded and infectious risk. and it comes as the european union struggles to maintain unity over covert vaccine purchases in brussels as a member states to keep to the bloke's centralized distribution scheme but not all seem to be keeping to the agreement as aussies piece all of a report. the european union's one for all and all for one vaccine plan is called the against the problem of members self interest when it comes to obtaining the jobs germany has snapped up an extra 13000000 doses of the pfizer vaccines being criticized by its partners for doing so it is selfish behavior to buy medicine by yourself disrespecting common decisions is another example of the german policy of respecting their own interests above the interests of other e.u. countries berlin insists it is playing by the rules and that those extra doses won't be sent out until the vaccine is being dispatched across the rest of the
4:19 pm
european union germany says the real problem lies with problems when it comes to production it's not correct to see the germany secure vaccines at the expense of other countries. would see it we have ordered enough vaccines and the question is how can they be produced how fast they can be produced and if we would have ordered more it would not have been possible to produce it quicker the shortage is due to the lack of production capacity it isn't just germany that's being accused of looking out for itself cyprus is courting israel for vaccine delivery saying that the european union isn't forthcoming with the new doses to provide a mass switch to rollout the initial indications were very encouraging but at some point there was a setback in its effectiveness 2 companies came up with the vaccine 1st phase the buying to commit done but the number of vaccines is not enough for rapid mass vaccination e.u.
4:20 pm
commission president has live on the line is telling member states to cut it out into it to the plan that they all agreed on we have all agreed legally binding that there will be no parallel negotiations no parallel contracts so the framework we are all working. in is a framework of 27 together and we are negotiating together we are procuring and together we are bringing forward this vaccination process brussels is calling on member states to come clean about any side deals they may have going on the president has asked commissioner this to send a letter to all health ministers asking them to provide us with all the necessary transparency on the way in which they are complying with the provisions of our vaccine strategy in terms of contacts or lack of contacts rather with with those pharmaceutical companies that we have been or are
4:21 pm
negotiating with the commission on doing themselves any favors demanding transparency from member states when it comes to vaccine procurement when they are being a lot clearer on who will get what when the 27 agree that brussels would negotiate on their behalf the accusation is that that is being undermined by member states looking out for number one as we see the the e.u. were very slow compared to other countries both in their regulation approvals bowls and there are a vaccination campaigns and. again no surprise that there is one set disaffection we we indeed have of across the across the whole front we have a very poor performance by the european union here but the central administration of the european union all they managed was to secure so the $100000000.00 doses for
4:22 pm
a population of $450.00 so taking into account that you need 2 doses per person this was one 3rd of the population for which the vaccine was secured because of some budget constraints it is officially said so no wonder that the e.u. population is not very happy with that performance in brussels. police in the u.k. are increasingly finding people who break the lock down restrictions leaving home without a reasonable excuse could mean a 200 pound find rising to 6400 pounds for repeat offenders but a shot here with daschle found out enforcement is very inconsistent and the officers are sometimes forced to back down and have even appeared to have broken the rules themselves. despite the u.k. being in a full scale national lockdown kovac 9000 cases a soaring and death rates are constantly hitting records the public has been
4:23 pm
ordered to stay at home once again but it seems not everyone is sticking to the rules and with rule breakers rule makers have given the police more power to clamp down on the law if you do not play your part our selfless police officers who are out there risking their own lives every day to keep us safe they will inforce the regulations and i will back them to do so to protect our n.h.s. and to save lives and england and wales police of issued 8000 penalties since november but leading by example isn't exactly the strong point you know for if you sit down in the restroom very coy service very early on through the fog lifted. to what you're doing right now. some officers are not as eager to abide by the rules as they are to enforce them to women who drive 8 kilometers to meet up for a walk in derbyshire found themselves surrounded by police their offense carrying coffee that made to the picnic so they were fined $200.00 pounds each in fact they
4:24 pm
were strictly following the rules as peace later admitted receiving the fines and giving a half hearted apology look we martin do you know. it's an operational marker and if it's not take out coffee spreading kind of it it snowballs trip shipley's of starch and throws with $200.00 pounds fines there have been 2 reports of snow balls being thrown. last night between 11 and 11 30 pm this is obviously not a justifiable reason to be out of your house this behavior is likely to result in a 200 pounds fixed penalty notice for breaking the lockdown rules the tweet has since been deleted after dozens of angry complaints but still the message is stay at home we're going to keep the rules of the course reviewed we have to tighten them we will but we have in place now is the most. simple.
4:25 pm
observation observance of the group although the prime minister himself a spot it's like a ling 11 kilometers away from downing street so is it a case of one rule for me and another for you. and. russia's covert vaccine has now been officially registered in venezuela with the 1st sputnik the dose is expected to arrive within weeks meanwhile russia's own vaccination inoculation program is about to be significantly ramped up president putin has announced that mass vaccinations start next week. this is definitely a milestone for this country because from this point it's not only about doctors or teachers or other jobs that forced the staff to be in touch with the loads of people face to face now the goal is to make sure that the russian vaccine is available to all citizens of this country to make sure that the coronavirus
4:26 pm
pandemic in russia is dealt a final blow and it is looking promising because of the data that we received after the 3rd stage of the trials back in december that pointed to 96 percent efficacy of the sputnik v. jab the question is though whether the infrastructure is ready and whether there are enough doses and we've just heard from me seeing a russian government minister who was reporting to vladimir putin that production is on the rise in the plan is to rapidly increase the number of vaccination centers so it's on the way it's coming and i can tell you that so far in this country more than a 1000000 people have already been vaccinated but everyone really needs to be cautious with their optimism because while the numbers for new cases daily are looking quite good in this country this isn't the case in quite a few countries around the world plus there's the issue of new strains being discovered and i can tell you that last sunday a patient with
4:27 pm
a new strain has been identified in russia as well and this explains the cautious in the warning that came from the russian president to. someone else used i know that we have the new corona virus strains and our scientists are working on the it's use in practice shows that the russian vaccine is the best in the world because we should understand its effectiveness against the new strains for that we need full scale research and i urge you to monitor that to make sure everything is fine. however though despite the things that i've been telling you about earlier we can. remember that only a few months ago russia's split think the jab drew a significant amount of criticism before the 3rd stage of the trials some were saying that mainly in the west that it was too early to approve the vaccine others accused russia of using the vaccine as a political or a p.r. tool but now all of this is beginning to vanish sputnik viz success is becoming
4:28 pm
apparent for everyone and we know that only a few days ago the correspondent of new york times in moscow got the job as well we saw a piece in bloomberg and which the conclusion was that basically there are no reasons to be dubious about the russian vaccine and besides the stairs of course the international cooperation which points to trust mr putin has just announced that the production of sputnik fee will soon begin in turkey that's after a phone call with his colleague to go on we already know that the jab has already been delivered to as far as argentina and more and more countries are certifying the use of it so again all of this is a sign of trust but what's very important for citizens of this country like i said earlier that next week the job will be available for everyone in this country too. 5 chasing off the international way back with the latest at the top of the hour.
4:29 pm
the be. as the trunk presidency comes to wind the country stares into a political divisions are different now than ever before and dialogue is almost nonexistent talk of compromised is deemed to be treasonous by many this will hardly change on january 20. 8th. i got this 8 millimeter film purely by accident. time period 963 to 65 place damascus.
4:30 pm
i don't don't know why young. i've watched it many times a man posing the monuments and all poster of the hollywood premiere of town without pity and a fight in a mock so without bruises. i had my doubts if i should waste my time on this but i came back to that film over and over again tracing a sequence of events happening in syria at that time and those who worked there the moment on review got the settlement on the ground in which i'm sitting you know neal curiosity is like a perpetual motion machine it lives on without a lunch break and then suddenly i saw him stop let's take another look now at low speed this is key like 0 on a super spy who some consider a national hero and others an evil villain an israeli the.
