i mean. it. sounds like it. but. i i i the headlines this hour a 3rd night of violence in the netherlands has riots return again because if you use following weekend about the country's tough. also to come internationally for you to grow used to russia's cozy fact seen around the latest nation to greenlight sputnik very india says it's nearly ready to move with the country's moscow envoy saying that he's had the jab himself. the expect for the next couple of weeks. for the good people who will be written for use in india. thousands of vaccine

doses in spain have been because the country lacks the right equipment to administer the shots a spanish medical specialist says they were already suffering from sure. i believe the new vaccines are allowed their numbers will be significantly lower than we and the rest of the european union. for their welcome you're watching r.t. international it's 5 o'clock in moscow. down right now for a 3rd night in the netherlands it's soft police vehicles burned and windows smashed people are protesting against some of the toughest strictures in europe which has seen the country impose an overnight curfew.

riot police were out on the streets of rotterdam onstott down the hague i'm tovan as well as many of those smaller towns and cities right across the netherlands as the country saw a 3rd night of violence with people looting rioting burning cars and other property in reaction to a curfew that's being put in place in an attempt to stop the spread of covert 19 that curfew runs from 9 pm at night until 4 30 in the morning it's really upset a lot of people but that's resulted in condemnation for those who took part in the violence from local officials on the prime minister mark rita if they are severe

clinical to really wonder what's gotten to these people there was nothing to do with protesting discriminant violence and group will be treated to such this was the 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 7. 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 all of the reports men now iran has become the latest country to a previous. vaccine and hopes to play a part in manufacturing the medicine. i would like to inform you that

yesterday of this the vaccine was registered in ran and approved by our health officials we hope the din the near future we will be able to buy the japanese into a large joint manufacture or separately the mexican president has described the jab is 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 stages of the clinical trials are well underway there and the country's ambassador to moscow says that 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 normal. precautions that we take her during the pandemic situation just as we remain at a mosque we have certain distance it is also good to take scientifically proven. scenes and of course the sputnik vaccine is one such vaccine well approval of sputnik veiny in india could happen within weeks and have that once it completes the trials india is also considering making the job on its territory for both domestic and global demand the countries emboli to russia again told us why need to get involved. it 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 trying to make so when the idea of cheap is to kill or the material approach the indian authorities or the testing of the

sputnik alexian this was really come to an india these phase 2 trials of the picnics you have been completed is through trial commenced and be assured that as soon as their regulatory 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 dear 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 and cooperation and friendship

and we intend to extend double hand of friendship through support for their explanation programs of a number of countries. who are in need of this and we will work through the u.n. to double which will 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 the 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 various regulatory approval will be available for use in india and also for export to russia and other countries

now despite an overall shortage your vaccines many cases of the pfizer job in spain have been wasted and that's because the country lacks the special syringes that are needed to extract the diocese from that vial and medical experts write down the problem in a bit more detail. we have already talked about the 6 and even 7th goes it's not possible with all the royals. you have to be prepared for that and use more expensive syringe just unusual it's a lot of money and requires more cautions. so while 165000 doses of the fires a shot have been given so far in the catalan region an estimated 10000 being wasted and the shortages could have been worse to you had it not been for the fact that some regions do you have the right needles well the country is going through some of its toughest times in the 3rd wave of the pandemic daily infection rates hit a new high last week salvador pedro again says that the shortage of vaccines has

amplified the problem. the main problem is that the number of vaccines 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 need now the european method since agency is changing the technical detail induces per 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. there is one rule for us and quite another for you that seems to be the motto of us and e.u. governments at the moment who are eagerly backing protests in support of jailed kremlin critic election a valley in russia while criticizing the far bigger rallies taking place in their own backyard what it cost the f. takes a closer look. the united states has come out in the strongest terms against the

suppression of protests and against police prove 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 got 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 laws 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 and there's yada yada oh oh there's no america in this list the very good reason there won't be defined being there won't

be dismantling of our police and they're not going to be any disbanding of our police our police have been letting us live in peace we can't give up the finest law enforcement anywhere 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 tear gas nor sprayed with water cannons but that was trump let's see what biden thinks about opposition protests witnessed yesterday was not dissent. 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 insurrections 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 dr. i find this authoritarian drift very worrying so this frog's right in the 1st 3 months of the year of this protests french police arrested 10000 protesters people died people will crippled last eyes lost lives tear 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 there is germany demanding the release of all peaceful protesters detained in russia detained for peacefully attacking police peacefully punching traffic cops and peacefully destroying god's

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 german officials and police did they dismiss them as loons crazies extremists and beat them around the head for good measure the democrats a constitutional 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 ton not long ago when the world looked up to europe and america is as beacons of freedom and liberty the right way to do things but that beacon that long. right as gold out there are no illusions anymore about europe or america being superior or better than everyone else but time for hypocritical ligatures has postes no one can be bothered to listen anymore you're watching aussie still ahead this hour a new nationwide strike is underway in france today around

a 3rd of teachers have apparently moved back to life from paris just off the bridge . seemed wrong wrong just don't all. get to shape out this day. and in again train because the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart when she's to look for common ground.

hello again now a major teachers' strike is underway at the moment in france around a 3rd of all teaching staff have also been expected to rally for better conditions including vaccine access and higher pay so let's get the latest now and go straight to our supplier our correspondent elizabeth is there and charlotte when we spoke she last time looked like there was a sizable protest underway in paris what's it like there at the moment.

yes that's right thousands of people turned out to this protest in paris to let the government know that there are unhappy with the conditions in schools across france it wasn't just this protest in paris but this was a protest called by 6 unions including 2 of the largest representing 3 quarters of teachers for a protest across france we're getting a sense of the people who are still here in the protest at the moment as i said this protest called by a number of unions and it's in protest over a myriad of issues here in france not just the fact that they want higher wages and that they want better working conditions but also over this situation over 19 of the unions say they want teachers to be on a priority list to receive the vaccine and they say the educational inequalities of essentially why didn't since the start of the health crisis and they will highlight

the psychological precarity of students the financial precariously of students something we know here on r.t.e. because we covered it in the last week we spoke to one student who is telling us you know they just felt like throwing the towel in because there was just no feature no lessons face to face it at least mean averse to vote for teachers and most of the teachers here they're the ones who work in the ordinary high schools juniors. rules imprint schools and they are still giving lessons and they say that not enough is being done to protect them let me give you an example there was a poll in december there found that 81 percent of the respondents felt that their situation was bad all very bad in terms of the protection that was being offered to them so teachers that really want this sense of being done they say we need to hire more teachers in front we need to reduce class sizes so they can continue to you

make sure that there is social distancing in classes and they fear reus about this now we know that the minister of education announced a few months ago that they would be 400000000 euros more in the pot from john we teachers but we understand from some of the unions that will not help 69 percent of teachers that means choose thirds of teachers will not see an increase in royce because of the extra money we know the president mccall has talked about universities offering meals for one day for students in the most precarious situation but the reality is that teachers across france don't feel that enough is being done and they're the latest to come out in protest against the situation not just over wages and conditions but also the health situation and they want more to be done to be put in place to help them get through this current pandemic. charlotte charlotte one of the protests in paris thank you.

now in the united states the biden ministration has unveiled ambitious plans to stop. just one problem that i don't even know how many vaccines they have kind of marketed as the story told in factions of 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 trumps 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 its time. is why. extends itself more people die for something which at this point is preventable condition they have the capacity to do 10000 vaccinations a day but they're only doing 1500 because they don't harm their growth and they don't after supply it is playing out nationwide a hospital in virginia canceled 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 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 even though the number. bers of $1000000.00 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 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 kaleb oppen artsy new york medical commentator dr john dombrowski told us the pre-election promise is done 2 ways become a reality but it is a real disconnect between the government which obviously openly responsible and the suppliers so just pfizer return and other orbital 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 on 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 if it gets more poorly what are we going to do today and tomorrow political promises that are made only campaign really don't pan out in terms of what you get behind the desk you have to really deliver with these patients. rights groups have accused israel of dodging its pandemic to millions of palestinians who may have to wait months for vaccination israel's health minister explained where his priorities lie. as far as the vaccination is concerned i say that it's. israeli obligation 1st of all almost to the citizens they pay taxes for their own the while the country is $1.00 of the world leaders in inoculation at the moment already minimizing one in 5 of its population against the virus but more than 4 and a half 1000000 palestinians are not getting the shot we've got reaction to this from his writings occurred into international israel is responsible for the lives of all palestinians in gaza and in the west bank yeah why not there are

a human being just like us we are controlling the. territory and we should take care of the population as well their war careers are a coming on daily bases into ease railing here they travel here and so the whole population could be in danger it's true that it can be in israel favorite if you get the vaccine but shouldn't be on the on course it also favorite decided to do all world would take to fix it but we shouldn't pay for it but we also heard from the group physicians for human rights and it says that israel does have a responsibility to help palestine. i know that if i seen an associate through with the head of post and will handle the new zation i'm trying to secure a vaccination but like any other the whole country of course not succeeding to get

the soon enough while his friends in the box nation goes very well and like 2000000 people who were already fucked and they said so it seems like there's a huge gap between what's going on in the israelis and the citizens of receiving books in nations and priority groups like the chronically eat and medical teams in the palestinian territories do not state the last has access yes i don't agree with . the minister of health i think it has some sensibility of this legally and ethically and also from the interests of the kind of. and that brings you up to date with all the news that so far today here not internationally but if you get there you can also keep yourself updated on our social media pages and you can check.

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy to confront a shouldn't let it be an arms race off and spearing dramatic development only personally i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical thought i'm time to sit down and talk. because i was going on the phone months smoke fighting only coming for the moment then mark the moment the one who's been brought up going to november those done a lot of photos of stuff to get a. lot

of money but. just that they had i think. she was you make them. more 0 years for them. john bombard from the sun on my book you go to the british of course they're going up our family. i mean the guys who are dead and of course i don't want any of the government. to. take.

this is boom bust that one business show you can't afford to miss i'm sarah montana in washington coming up in the midst of the coven 1000 pandemic what do you expect to see from a digital davos will dive into the global conference that has taken to the web. are hitting another speed bump in the european union as the push against big tech is gaining steam we have an analysis on how nations around the globe are hailing the start there's growing in store and later on to reach for the world's top economy continues to heat up china has jumped ahead of the u.s. and foreign investment we have a panel to break down the latest of a lot to get to so let's get started. davos summit like many other events is taking place virtually this year the annual event is taking place during the worst global economic crisis caused by the pandemic now it's going on under the theme a crucial year to rebuild w.t.f.

founder and executive chairman kicked off the event by saying the 1st step we have to undertake is to restore trust but in order to restore trust we have to reinforce 1st global cooperation on the agenda is primarily dealing with the economic recovery mental health the future of food and climate change but critics say little change actually comes from the annual event for this and more we're joined by co-host chrystia and c.e.o. of openness i'll see ottavio more and see ottavio let's start with you let's start with the. what can we actually expect from the event and its call to action is anything actually going to come out of it this year. well i do wonder how many people are really going to participate this year you know it's pretty boring at the best of times actually when you're in person i doubt many people will sit in front of video conferences for 5 days as they listen to different lectures but i think it does frequently have a big impact i mean many of the world's leaders coming together and discussing various issues and maybe coordination certain policies clearly at the top of the

agenda this is going to be covert 19 in the response that.
