yes i'm show business i'll see that. the ongoing feud between you and u.k. over astra zeneca vaccines intensifies with france and germany proposing penalties if the company gives the u.k. preferential treatment. a fresh wave of demonstrations that grips france over a controversial new security bill as a french police union claims a legal loophole is giving radical protestors a get out of jail free card. and the black lives matter movement is

nominated for a nobel peace prize for its fight against racial inequality despite outbreaks of violence and looting at some of its rallies with the proposal for debate. you have a movement where people whether they represent the movement or not or just black businesses 25 people were killed last summer. just around the world not just in the united states this is a most warranted and deserve the would be sure. you're watching our 2 international coming to you live from the russian capital this and every hour welcome to the program. as europe continues to struggle with new corona virus strains and impose tough lockdown measures people across the continent are becoming increasingly frustrated with the way the pandemic is being handled.

case in point we can show you pictures from protests in 3 separate european cities starting in austria around 5000 people defied a ban to march in protest against a curfew and lockdown aimed at curbing the spread of the new code in 1000 variance marches organized by a far right party in the country and many participants ignored social distancing rules and more without masks on the crowd refused to disband and block traffic and there were clashes with police. now we can look at denmark where a group called men in black organized a protest and they chanted a freedom for denmark and we've had enough they believe the coronavirus restrictions are you violation of their freedoms the group invited their supporters from all over denmark to the march which began in the early evening at city hall and went through the city center. and in brussels on sunday police said they had arrested over $200.00 people in an attempt to prevent to ban demonstrations against

measures to curb the spread of the crown a virus that put out a statement on twitter beforehand reminding the public that the protests were not authorized and more than those who plan to attend that they were at risk of being. a belgian has registered one of the highest death rates in the world during the coronavirus pandemic numbers have gone down due to recent restrictions the country last week non-essential trips and of the country march. meanwhile as the blocks vaccine rollout struggles to get going the e.u. and u.k. have clashed over vaccine supplies germany has threatened astra zeneca with legal action over vaccine delays saying the company should face penalties if it gives britain preferential treatment. if it turns out that individual company is not complying with the legations a decision must be made to build legal consequences well while we've heard of threats of legal action from peter out by just there the german economy minister there are some signs of a ripoff from are being attempted to be made but in this 3 way dispute between the

european union the united kingdom and the pharmaceutical giant astra zeneca the vaccine manufacturer has said that an extra $9000000.00 doses of the job will be sent to the european union in the 1st quarter of 2021 the total to be delivered through till march open to up to $40000000.00 now that's still well short of the 102120 1000000 that the e.u. was promised back in august of last year but a slip on the line the e.u. commission president tweeted out that she's happy with the extra 9000000 doses and the promise that astra zeneca would be popping manufacture of their vaccine inside the european union this all follows on from a huge diplomatic mess over the weekend involving astra zeneca the u.k. and the e.u. it follows on from a misconception it would seem from the european commission side they understood

that they thought they would get doses of the vaccine to be manufactured in the u.k. that's not the case the e.u. then decided that they would put in place restrictions on vaccines leaving the european union the manufactured inside the block reason though that there has been such rash action from the e.u. site is that the lack of vaccines is really starting to bite here we've heard from france from portugal from spain where vaccine programs are having to be suspended because there aren't enough jobs while in the united kingdom well the vaccine program is moving along at a pace french president emanuel micron is waded into the argument saying the u.k. has to decide who its friends are. imagine the british finish their vaccine campaign successfully what will they do stop european lorries from entering when there is a total dependence on the continent good luck half pregnant is not a concept what policy does great britain wish to choose it cannot be the closest ally of the us the closest ally of the e.u.

and the new singapore it has to choose a model what we've essentially seen though is the british side getting a huge p.r. victory post break that without really having to do very much at all as far as london's concerned they're focused on vaccinating their own people the u.k. government's position is absolutely clear we expect companies and contracts to be on that european union know that our 1st priority is vaccinating people in the united kingdom but we also want to work with our friends and neighbors in the european union well the job of savaging that the european union and particularly e.u. commission president on the line over this whole mess has fallen to the british press received a number of headlines incredibly critical of brussels a stance the world health organization though has waded in as well saying vaccine nationalism needs to stop as it doesn't help anybody if we lose translate into motion i'm going to lucian suboxone nationalism we will all pay the price in terms

of a protracted we only prolong the plunder me more vaccine talk set for monday is there's a summit taking place at least a virtual summit taking place from here in berlin concerning what happens next when it comes to germany and the vaccine program we heard from the german health minister last week saying that it was 10 weeks behind where you'd like it to be the news coming in is that there will be an extra 75000000 doses of the pfizer buy on tech vaccine made available to the european union perhaps that will help calm some of the tensions regarding just who is getting these vaccines and when they go. to be arriving here in the european union. paris was rocked by a fresh bout of violent protest over the weekend as a run of 5000 people demonstrated against france's global security bill that will restrict the filming of police and posting of images online and. there.

was. 7 critics of the draft bill see it as a threat to press freedom despite government promises to rewrite the controversial article $24.00 which covers the sharing of images of officers many still oppose the idea dozens of rallies were also held across france with over $32000.00 people taking part according to the interior minister a total of $35.00 arrests were made over the weekend. tensions also spilled out onto the streets of nas with 4 officers reportedly injured in the clashes it comes as police in the city have complained that radical riders often avoid. we heard from a representative of a french police union on our shared his view on the situation. you know there is a part of the population which resents the police sometimes this resentment is

ideological which means that we have both left and right wing protesters hostile to the police and sometimes it's resentment is from people threatened and to against protests who feel anger towards the police we can legitimately wonder both about the effectiveness of the court's response and about whether these rioters have a political role to play the presence of rioters at the protests gives a pretext and legitimacy to the prefix and in particular to the police prefect to ban gatherings which are initially legitimate government policy has been relatively opaque on the issue of rioters since at the beginning of the yellow verse crisis the prime minister himself initiated a debate on an anti right dossier where it was said that all hooligans were known to intelligence services we were going to register them in a file and put them under house arrest on the days of demonstrations it means that they would have to check in their nearest police station to prove they're not at the protest this dossier has never seen the light of day.

now didn't click. on one of our colleagues who works in the sense and they need to parliament a police commander was found dead at his home and another officer who worked for the border police in majorca also killed himself so every year every week every month police officers kill themselves because the police administration is an institution that's not only violence on a physical level as we sometimes witnessed during demonstrations and lower in force winds operations but it's also extremely violent on a psychological level and it's the enemy of people who seek to give meaning to their daily actions the message of the police hierarchy is don't think just execute orders. they're black lives matter movement dominated the headlines and 2020 following the police killing of george floyd and many an apple s gross protests were peaceful though west some of their rallies being marred by looting violence and vandalism.

the tower. despite all that the movement has been nominated for the nobel peace prize the proposal which was put forward by a norwegian lawmaker has been met with a mixed reaction online. they've been able to mobilize people from all groups a society not just african-americans not just oppressed people it has been a broad movement in a way which has been different from their predecessors awarding the peace prize to black lives mass and will send

a powerful message that peace is founded on equality solidarity and human rights and that all countries must respect these basic principles and this is where the nobel peace prize has lost its legitimacy and credibility blood flows matter movement is nominated for a nobel prize after engaging in months of extreme violence that called for the killing of cops and destruction of u.s. its. most expensive and devastating riots in american history but sure noble peace prize seems appropriate right this summer b.l.m. concentrated on riots looting arson murder cop killing destruction of public and private property lawlessness criminality etc and now it's time to give them an emmy award a nobel peace prize etc the world's a stage some of course find criticism of the movement unjustified since the vast majority of 93 percent of the black lives matter protests last summer were peaceful that's according to a report tracking political violence in the united states where we discuss the

nobel peace prize nomination with conservative commentator jeff charles and political activist and the rodgers right. i don't see how this organ how this organization at least the national organization deserves this prize this prize is intended for for organizations that benefit mankind when you've got people's livelihoods being destroyed and you've got people being killed it's hard for me to for me to see how that's the case especially when there's no widespread condemnation among the ranks of black lives matter of course there are are some individuals who have escalated and taking matters into their own hands and even dr king held weapons in his house to protect himself against white supremacy terrorism so i think that any movement that is 93 percent peaceful and has had just an impact around the world not just in the united states also in solidarity with all oppressed people around the world and this is a most warranted and deserved award for sure the riots happened approach to peaceful protests happened and what change has actually happened nothing to say

that it's just a hash tag and just saying that there had been hasn't been any action we've seen massive police reforms into beslan in cities like new york in cities like los angeles minneapolis at one point calling for change the entire police structure so to meet i mean just having a conversation is in and for me isn't enough to win a nobel peace prize there should actually be something good that happened you have black lives matter talking about defunding the police even though 82 percent of black americans disagree with that and you know what defending the police and having fewer police officers is going to disproportionately affect black people so to me saying that black lives matter you're not really showing that when you are supporting the destruction of black businesses the destruction of black lives and you're making black people less safe you have a movement where people whether they represent the movement or not torch black businesses 25 people were killed last summer and i might understand that point if the black lives matter their leadership and force came out and condemned the

rioting but you only had a few local chapters who were willing to actually condemn the violence but we haven't seen action as is in the domestic terrorist threat in the united states. from white supremacy terrorists who show up to state buildings with their guns out but not their mass i can condemn the rights of the u.s. capitol as a matter of fact the vast majority of republicans did condemn that violence and yet you don't see a whole lot of that that we didn't see a whole lot of that this past summer during the riots that were happening with the n.c.f. and black lives matter and never have you seen black labs matter take part in an insurrection where they were trying to stop the democratic process in a country that still oppresses them more than the p.b.s. and volatility of white supremacy that we saw in january 6th the fact that donald trump has even been considered for a nobel peace prize just goes to show you the differences in standards for black and white people in this country and quite frankly throughout the world. after the break russia sees a 2nd consecutive weekend of anti-government protests that's as the country's

security services claim they have evidence of foreign support for the opposition that story coming up shortly. seems wrong. but i. just don't. let me. get to. this day. and in detroit because betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. the world is driven by dreamers shaped by one person with those with.

seeing. dear to ask. welcome back several 1000 protesters were detained across russia on sunday during the 2nd weekend of on authorised rallies in support of jailed kremlin critic x. in a balmy this time there were visibly fewer people at the anti-government demonstrations with the highest attendance in moscow and st petersburg and the russian capital

authorities have warned people against gathering citing the ongoing pandemic officers used force where demonstrators resisted arrest meanwhile russia's federal security service has released footage purporting to show a secret meeting between one of them all these close associates and the british intelligence officer some time ago the f.s.b. claims britain is actively involved with the russian opposition providing them with financial support and intelligence. details of a spy scandal involving a fake rock dating back to 2006 were also shared with the f.s.b. saying it illustrates the scope and boldness of british interference in russian affairs. breaks down what's been revealed. is a dirty word but everyone does it it's a tricky business high risk high reward pull it off and you hit jackpot and no one ever finds out but when you mess it up it's a world of them barrus mint as was the case 15 years ago out of the blue

a senior british diplomat develops the oddest habit of doing inexplicable walks to the strangest of places as the same route every time now alarm bells are ringing yet but ross encountered halogens decide to keep an eye on these odd little habit christopher peart secretary archivist of the british embassy in moscow looking shifty as can be but then a 2nd british diplomat develops the same walking habits and during one of those walks one of the diplomats strays off the path kids a random rock and then keeps on going to alarm bells at this poor the f.s.b. understands that something steve here is a ford they were trained wards is a 3rd and the 4th british diplomat start here in

a nice little pilgrimages to this little rock at one point a certain mark do then 2nd secretary of the embassy and flags as an mit 6 agent by russian counterintelligence wished the rockaway for a little polish it turned out to be a wife i device used to communicate with a russian official turned traitor. at the time it was a novel way to organize communication between the embassies and my 6 office and agents in russia they refused to acknowledge the incident all the way up to 2012 when tony blair's former adviser officially confirmed the incident by iraq was embarrassing they they mean they had just bang to rights clearly they've known about it for some time to be saving it up for a political purpose this is the rock or the malfunctioning rock a copy of it the original has been stripped down into dust circuits and was but this is the rock that caused sue much embarrassment for british intelligence and

diplomats since then technology has undergone miniaturize ation and this has given way to this the internet and messages but while neath tactics may have changed goals and strategies haven't asked benard subterfuge spies and betrayal you'd think that british agents and potential recruits and russia would be a little more surreptitious going into the future but no the federal security service of russia has released footage showing mark do successor following in his clumsy footsteps james william thomas ford entering a restaurant in moscow former 2nd secretary for political affairs at the british embassy designated an undeclared m i 6 agent married to elizabeth cohen berg designated swedish intelligence agent following him in is russian opposition figure

vladimir assured of alexina valley's right hand man executive manager of the f b k foundation currently living in the u.k. surveillance of this meeting was conducted by russian counterintelligence keeping an eye and special agent forward. i'm. that would be 80 would expect there to be the 1st one that was 80 he was and was when he was. $41.00 why did he decide i did i wouldn't be $180.00 i don't think i would certainty i am do was hint hint

nudge nudge fundus into power and will pay you back with billions since the man crusading against corruption the opposition even has a plan which is remarkably similar to what they accuse the government of doing from bombarding voters with propaganda to back to deals with elites would he was anybody who was needed to read it he would he had i was it was it was it we did i don't know i shouldn't of cementing rumors that the opposition is being helped by foreign intelligence appears to ask the british for help information from government and intelligence agencies to use against the russian government he was

81 was arrested after the hour i am sure that it was an accident do whatever he was relevant he was right it was was was it was it i wouldn't. certainty was i believe god it was because it was a good read it is. good and he did the right thing to do not understand scored 380 britain off the rule has much to gain here doesn't beat around the bush the meaning is clear give us information and we'll help get rid of competition for british banks by torpedoing

russian money we would release everybody thank god i don't get the side of what was a teacher to be. here assured pool is for the waitress you never know she could be a spy trying to listen in. how do how do you i don't eat that was exactly what i do did i don't think it would be bad i would i think make it or did i was like oh it's already had i was i don't have the spuds a soup of hints mr ford that doesn't commit to any direct financial support instead

he points i should go to a work around work with transparency international which britain was already financing they were 70 to be the big thing that i should think anybody would read about over there isn't anybody moves closer to. god i. it's something that i didn't want you to think you were in that didn't work he. was the law he was i think what you want you don't want that when he. was right i am and we. thank you and then we need to do with another he did. it when i was building and i will.

was just imagine a british politician meeting with russian secret service agents to beg for funding and dirt on rivals it would cause a national uproar aside from the ethical complications it would also undoubtedly be viewed as a security threat and that's exactly what it is in the eyes of the f.s.b. . the intelligence desk of m i 6 whose main mission is to get the secret material on the economic and military potential of russia is actively engaged with the russian opposition supports terrorists n.g.o.s and provides them with financing aside from assisting the opposition with information and financing the british embassy has direct involvement from an opposition organizations because it's never been a secret that the opposition in russia has ties with and sometimes works in the interests

of foreign governments. and there were i did we all do when i was when we were going to look at you and you would put the degree of that corporation will undoubtedly voters with very serious. questions more i guess dia of. moscow. r t has sent a request to mr ford asking him to comment on his possible involvement with m i 6 and a lot of short of and we've also reached out to the u.k. foreign office and british embassy in russia for their comment i'll get back to you with their responses and that's all for this hour news wise but if you're looking for more head on over to our website r.t. dot com for countless articles and interviews thanks for chiming in.
