8:03 am
scum of the earth that tried to disturb things here i'm afraid that if we continue down this path we will be on our way to civil war we saw cars burned shops and looted fireworks thrown at the place who responded by firing warning shots using tear gas and water cannon as well to try and disperse the crowds now the police have described this as the worst violence that they've seen in the country for decades and a concerned that it may continue for some time yet we haven't seen this much violence in 40 years i hope it was a one off but i'm afraid it was a harbinger for the coming days and weeks it's been 3 nights in a row in the netherlands but the 1st time we saw clashes with police over the few was in the 70. of january there's been hundreds of people arrested over the last 3 days there was also an incident in the north of the country where a covert 19 testing center was burnt down that somebody was taken into custody for

questioning in relation to that and what we've heard from mayors and local officials in major cities and in small towns as well is that they are going to be taking a mergence the action to try and stop a you know the nights of violence occurring on tuesday when this curfew comes into place it's interesting when you look at the statements coming out from the police they said that things were incredibly peaceful right up until 9 pm when that curfew came into place and that's when well we saw we saw on monday evening that 30 nights of violence and they're concerned that it may continue for a while yet peter of the reporting that now iran has become the latest country to a previous. vaccine and hopes to play a part in manufacturing the medicine to. them i would like to inform you that yesterday this the vaccine was registered in iran and approved by our health
8:05 am
officials we hope the din the near future we will be able to buy the jap into a large joint manufacture or separately the mexican president has described the jap as evidence of scientific progress adding that his country hopes to get millions of doses within weeks we spoke with the president of the russian federation vladimir putin and he was genuinely affectionate i invited him to visit mexico and thank him for the decision to send us 24000000 doses of the sputnik vaccine over the next 2 months meanwhile in india the final stage of sputnik the clinical trials are well underway there and the country's ambassador to moscow says he's already taken the job himself. i took it last week. the 1st also sputnik vaccine i feel perfectly red many of my colleagues in the embassy have done so as well and i am absolutely certain that this is part of the
8:06 am
normal. precautions that we take her during the pandemic situation just as when you made a mosque you have certain distance but it is also good to take scientifically proven . scenes and of course the sputnik vaccine is one such vaccine but approval of sputnik vein india could come within weeks once it completes those trials india is also considering making the job thing on its territory for both domestic and global demand the country's envoy to russia told us why new delhi got involved doesn't come as a surprise that we have a such a long tradition of cooperation between india and russia their cooperation continued during the code pandemic so when the idea of cheap is to kill or the material approach the indian authorities or the testing of the sputnik alexina this was really come to an india these phase 2 trials of the
8:07 am
picnics you have been completed is through trial a commenced and be assured that as soon as the regular 3 approvals are given in india it will be available for use in india. aim is to finally. cover the vaccination of 300000000 indians so it is one of the largest vaccination programs in the world but at the same time we wish to reach out to your friends and neighbors and we have done so be have given the nation doses. supplies have been sent by air to an apollo booked on bangladesh myanmar shows maldives and this is just the beginning we do not believe in vaccine competition we do not believe in vaccine nationalism we believe in rexy in cooperation and friendship and we intend to extend double hand of friendship to
8:08 am
support for their explanation programs of a number of countries. who are in need of this and really live up to the un to w.h.o. as people poleward and i'm sure in the weeks ahead they will be cooperation between india and russia on the global vaccination programs and there will be great potential for cooperation because a number of the vaccines that are produced in india will also be used abroad and that will include the russian sputnik roxanne that would be produced in india. has been in touch with a number of very good indian companies to take this forward and we expect in the next couple of weeks sputnik rexx enough there is the regulatory approval will be available for use in india and also for export to russia and other countries. now despise an overall shortage of vaccines many doses of the pfizer job in spain
8:09 am
have actually been wasted that's because the country that has these special syringes that are needed to extract uses from that file a medical expert brought down the problem in a bit more detail. they have already talked about the 6 and even 7th doses it's not possible with all vials or syringe you have to be prepared for that and use more expensive syringe is than usual it's a lot of money and requires more cautions so then 165000 is a thief eyes the shots have been given so far in the cattle and region an estimated 10000 cases have actually been wasted and the shortages could have been worse to you had it not been for the fact that some regions do have the correct needles while the country is going through some of its toughest times in a 3rd wave of the pandemic daily infection rates hit a new high last week salvador pedro again says that the shortage of vaccines is amplified the problem the main problem is that the number of vaccine
8:10 am
supplied under the agreements and procurement of the european commission is still very small i believe that until new vaccines are allowed their numbers will be significantly lower than we and the rest of the european union needs now the european method since agency is changing the technical detail induces parampara as soon as the labels changed they're going to give us 20 percent less those us than we should have because any mistake means a loss of dos i think what this really means is a 20 percent increase in price. now there is one roof for us and quite another 3 years at least that seems to be the most of us in the governments who are eagerly backing down the protests in russia but are criticizing far bigger rallies taking place in their own backyard taking a closer look has merit gets the death. the united states has come out in the strongest terms against the suppression of protests and against put he has proof
8:11 am
let me try again the united states says it can deadens police brutality it other countries the united states strongly condemns the use of harsh tactics against protesters and journalists this weekend in cities throughout russia prior to today's events the russian government sought to suppress the rights to peaceful assembly and freedom of expression i've go to ahead and put together a least a list of people in that disease that have the right to lecture others on police brutality so there's luas for example they knew this stuff right what's legal and what isn't there is the pope i'm not catholic but i haven't seen vatican security roughing anyone up recently then there is yada yada oh oh there's no america in this least the very good reason there won't be defining there won't be dismantling of our police and they're not going to be any disbanding of our police
8:12 am
our police have been letting us live in peace we can't give up the finest law enforcement and who are in the world is nothing like it. few people few countries have a record and trouble is right few countries have a police force that unhinged i didn't see anyone getting shot in moscow nor tia gas nor sprayed with water cannons but that was trump let's see what biden thinks about all position protests what we witnessed yesterday was not the sent it was not disorder it was not protest it was chaos there were protesters don't dare call them protesters there were a riotous mob insurrectionist domestic terrorists it's that basic it's that simple look nobody is ever again buying your lectures about police brutality the world has seen by in the mosques not that it stops some from
8:13 am
dr. i find this authoritarian drift very worrying so this frog's right in the 1st 3 months of the year of best protests french police arrested 10000 protesters people died people will crippled last our eyes lost lives here gas and rubber bullets were used in france in industrial quantities and you know what macro and is proud of the police do not speak of repression or police violence these words are unacceptable where there is rule of law then is germany demanding the release of all peaceful protesters detained in russia detained for peacefully attacking police peacefully punching traffic cops and peacefully destroying cars maiming drivers and marshaling kids 1011 year olds to attend violent protests germany itself has been rattled with anti lockdown protests and you know what the
8:14 am
german officials and police did they dismiss them as loons crazies extremists and beat them around the head for good measure the democratic constitution states is alive in the police or is protective shield a thing called the emergency services for this important service to a country that was a target not long ago when the world looked up to europe and america as beacons of freedom and liberty the right way to do things but that beacon that light has gone out there are no illusions anymore about europe or america being superior or better than everyone else the time for hypocritical lectures has passed no one can be bothered to listen anymore. or still ahead heated a new nationwide strike and protests underway in france today around a 3rd of teachers have apparently walked back we'll be live from paris just awful.
8:15 am
8:16 am
equals betrayal. once on a find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. again welcome back now a major teachers' strike is under way at the moment in france around a 3rd of all teaching staff are expected to rally for better conditions including early code vaccine access and higher pay and students could also join the protests to well let's get the latest. and speak to our correspond there shot at the bins charlotte since we spoke last time seems to be certainly a greater number of people out on the streets of the of the capital.
8:17 am
yes that's right there are thousands of individuals have come along to this nationwide protest today it's being called by 6 of the teaching unions including 2 of the biggest. ok well as you can see charlotte had problems with a microphone there i don't know if we can get her back if you can hear a charlotte to continue no really what we're trying to join her in a couple of minutes from now obviously the microphone came off as she was speaking but we'll get back to a soon as we can now in other news today in the u.s. the biden administration has unveiled ambitious plans to step up inoculations there is just one problem though they don't even know how many vaccines they have often as the story. code infections in the united states have surpassed 25000000 and at this point hopes are lying with the new vaccine being rolled out now the new white house of joe biden is promising to increase vaccination rates and correct trump's
8:18 am
mistakes but now things are going anything but smoothly at this point the federal government is admitting it's in the dark about how much vaccine supply is available i would say one of the biggest problems right now is i can't tell you how much vaccine we have and if i can't tell it to you then i can tell it to the governors and i can tell it to the state health officials across the country vaccination appointments are being cancelled by the thousands here in new york city 23000 vaccination appointments have been cancelled aspinall's are running out unable to give new inoculations this has americans wondering if the new administration can deliver more time. is why. extends itself more people to argue for something which at this point is preventable condition they have the capacity to do 10000 vaccinations
8:19 am
a day but they're only doing 1500 because they don't harm their doses they don't after supply it is playing out nationwide a hospital in virginia cancelled 10001st dose appointments another in south carolina canceled 6000 scheduled vaccinations after it received only 450 of the doses it expected to get in hawaii another hospital was forced to cancel 5000 scheduled appointments and put another 15000 requests on hold state governors across the country are appealing to the federal government for help as frustration among the public is growing we have so many distributors that we can't supply them all and you will see distributors who run out of supply joe biden set the goal of. 100000000 vaccinations in his 1st 100 days criticizing donald trump along the way for failing to achieve high vaccination rates this criticism was leveled by biden
8:20 am
even though the numbers of 1000000 vaccinations per day had already been achieved by the previous administration reporters tried to pin the white house down about this not adding up none of us are mathematicians myself included so i asked our team to do a little math on this so the trumpet ministration they minister in total about $17000000.00 shots that's about less than 500000 shots a day what we're proposing is to double that to about $1000000.00 shots per day at his inauguration joe biden promised to turn things around when it came to the pandemic however sense than it has been a short supply of vaccines chaos and government officials shrugging when asked how much is in supply the biden administration needs to pick up the pace and fast if not they could risk bringing an end to what would turn out to be one of the shortest honeymoon periods in u.s. presidential history caleb oppen artsy new york medical commentator talked to john
8:21 am
dombrowski to tell us the pre-election promises don't always become reality but it is a real disconnection between the government which obviously openly responsible and the suppliers such as pfizer mcgurn and other there are bugle industry we should really be working and in the globe with respect to this pandemic that we have and across the planet i think what we need to do is ok let's focus to what the problem is now in terms of getting the supplier of these vaccines supply chain working out and patients who need to go 1st go 1st so that's nice to do a cheap shot but i think it's more poorly what are we going to do today and tomorrow political promises that are made on the campaign really don't pan out in terms of what you get behind the desk you have to really deliver with these patients. now elsewhere rights groups have accused israel of dodging its pandemic jeanty to millions of palestinians who may have to wait months for vaccination israel's health minister explained where his priorities lie and as far as the
8:22 am
vaccination is concerned i say that it's. israeli obligation 1st of all almost to the citizens they pay taxes for their own the the country is $1.00 of the world leaders anunnaki lation already immunizing one in 5 of its population against 19. that's a to apologize yes but more than 4 and a half 1000000 palestinians are not getting the shot we got reaction on that from israelis occurred into international israel is responsible for the lives of all past 10 years in gaza and in the west bank yeah why not there are human beings just like us we are in control you beef. territory and we should take care of the population as well their war careers are. coming on daily bases into ease rarely carry they travel here and so like the whole population
8:23 am
could be in danger it's true that it can be in israel favorite if you get the vaccine but should be on the on course it's also a favorite israeli for the whole world would take to fix it but we shouldn't pay for it but we also heard from the greek physicians for human rights and it says israel does have a responsibility to help palestine. i know there's a post in associated with the head of the world health organization that tries to secure a vaccination but like any other whole country of course there are enough savings to get the silly mass while years whereas the vaccination goes very well like 2000000 people who were already vaccinated so it seems like there's a huge gap between what's going on is very very expensive receiving books in asian and priority groups like the chronically even medical teams in the palestinian territories they're not they did not have access yet i don't agree with the pain of
