tate last week the belgian government dole 'd essential cross border travel knots in addition to nightly curfews on the closure of long beach and restaurants belgium suffered one of the highest it rates in the world since the start of the pump. meanwhile the european union and the u.k. have clashed over vaccine supply germany has threatened with legal action over a vaccine delays saying the company should face penalties if it gives britain preferential treatment. if it turns out that individual company is to not complying with the legations a decision must be made to both 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 report on 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 at 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 a ping manufacturer 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 on its way did 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 where 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 trust in international collaboration civil rights in 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 or 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're going to be arriving here in the european union. horace was rocked by street clashes over the weekend around 5000 people demonstrated against the new security bill which gives extra surveillance powers to french police.

i. i. predict of a draft law say it will limit their right to free assemble and restrict press dozens of rallies were held across twelve's with over $32000.00 people taking part according to his minister a total of 35 arrests were made across the u.k. . tensions also annoyance with 4 officers reportedly injured in clashes police in the city claim radical behavior from rioters as routine going on polish we heard from a spokes person for a french police union. i. know that 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 just resentment this from people threaten and tear 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 prefects of band gatherings which i initially legitimate government policy has been relatively opaque on the issue of rioters since at the beginning of the yellow vests 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're 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. i. now didn't collect. one of our colleagues who works in the since then did need to parliament a police commander was found dead at his home and another officer who worked for

the border police in my old also killed himself so every year every week every month police officers killed themselves because the police of ministration is an institution that's not only violence on a physical level as we sometimes witnessed during demonstrations and law enforcement 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 executing orders. black lines matter movement dominated the headlines in 2020 following the death of george floyd in minneapolis the majority of the group's protests were peaceful but many were not.

in the spike such scenes the movement has been nominated for the nobel peace prize their 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 the 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 matter will send a powerful message that peace is founded on equality solidarity and human rights and that all countries must respect those basic principles 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 whole world's a stage or report tracking political violence in the us claims 93 percent of the b.l.m. protests last summer are peaceful earlier we discussed the nomination of political activists are very raw just right conservative commentator after all. 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 90 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 rights happened approach to peaceful protests happen 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 in that black people so

to me saying that 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. and use continues here in our 11002nd stay with us. when else should seem wrong. just don't. let me. get to shape. to stay active. and engaged with. the trail. when something is find themselves worlds apart. just to look for common ground.

the world is driven by a dream shaped by. the day or thinks. we dare to ask. hello again the world health organization said countries with the vaccine

availability should share out their doses with the rest of the world a spokesperson singled out the u.k. which has inoculated more of its population against cope at 19 than almost any other nation were asking all countries in those circumstances to do that hang on wait for other groups wait for those other groups will also appeal to all the people of the u.k. you can wait. discuss this issue i'm delighted to welcome on to the program bharat punk senior clinical lecturer at the university of exeter medical school marcelo for an epidemiologist the funder of swedish doctors for human rights and also alan peter a poll model of just in johannesburg judgment you're welcome. can we start with you whether or not this is a good idea is there any chance do you think of the u.k. agreeing to it on the whole thing it's vaccination program essentially to help

other countries. i doubt it very much because our you need. a kinder gentler political system and britain post breck's it finds itself in a difficult position to take that magnanimous view of we are all in it together that sanskrit concept of was there i could come bomb meaning the whole world is my family so i find it very difficult although all it is very essential that we immunize the globe together otherwise you can undo the gains that you gain from immunising just your population marcelo the w.h.o. is saying the u.k. should go ahead and inoculate vulnerable groups 1st almost all the people dying are in those groups so is there any sense in vaccinating young healthy people in the

u.k. while people overseas are at much higher risk. well there but they're right in saying that there was an action program and should be extended to different parts of it will and that i would not take. that the solution would be the stopping or decreasing the impetus on all of the u.k. this nation program what they were tense and it's each and should. advocate its. call for for increasing the production or all of the scenes you noted to be distributed. in other countries particularly in countries with. less advantaged economies they would for intense have the benefit of all the scenes we send not so expensive to store and they might be equally or even. there would have been. so. i don't

think that they sort of. put forward the suggestion but it would have 20 station to it to decrease the problems in the u.k. that is not the solution forward for a global pandemic olen if we take the example where you are south africa it's got the highest infection rate on the continent but the vaccination program it's got off to a slow start compared to the african union except where they have been able to accumulate cheaper jobs than johannesburg whose responsibility is it to fix this. well i think what they haven't meant to too is that the government was slow in getting prepared for ordering and buying the vaccines i know that south africa has as just ordered 1500000 astra zeneca doses at twice the price this might be because they have ordered very late this also morocco has ordered

a lot more vaccines then south africa has done but i think that's just due to the infrastructure and the administration on our side from our government. brought up to something you said a little earlier the british government does it not like any other nation have a responsibility to its own people you know what would citizens voters think of british lives were lost vaccine doses going elsewhere it's an important point isn't of course it is an important point and that is why i said it would take a very unusual and very brave and very magnanimous politician to say we are going to immunize our sensitive groups and then share the vaccines on the other hand i feel there is good news because the united kingdom has ordered more doses than it needs for its population of roughly 70000000 and one of the options that would be

that whatever spare capacity it has god it shares it with more one rouble nations nations where there have uncontrolled extensive spread of infection so all is not lost here but i would also like to say that the united kingdom the european union and the united states lend the technology to set up additional plants to increase global capacity global manufacture to immunize people are across the globe by manufacturing more ok we might pick up at the moment a cello and another issue i want to talk about the risk of new variance emerging if countries just focus on inoculating their own populations does that increase the danger of seeing new strains coming in from from elsewhere so in essence by not sharing their vaccines perhaps their production it's going to be worse for those countries in the long run. or indeed. the reste in

my case both. there the sharing or all the device scenes i don't i don't think that that countries are sharing their stock but seeing as i think that the multinationals which are producing these presidents and their. agencies we started to believe them where they're seen disapprove or not approve and then do what he's going to say should and then the government which associated with each of these international companies i mean all all of these. instances i don't want to decide. they want to be with us on where it's going to be distributed so i think this is something that has to be taken. by. internationally by the international going to say sions relation and the decisions by not the united nations about what this trade. it's not a matter of

a country that that shared you know that it seems they have already caught. you know in the u.k. they have. they have already of us 90. percent of all would have operational produced nearly 5 times more than in sweden and sweden percent more or less they ever actually in europe that that this it would think that the same of the has to be extended to other countries but the solution is not to deprive the resonation. it's already out. what do you think of i'm hesitant to call it criticism but perhaps singling i think the u.k. by the w.h.o. and saying that these should be doing more for the global community you know you've got israel you've got the u.a.e. they have vaccinated even higher percentages of their populations do you think is there a sense of politics at play. i'm i'm not sure but i mean just from

a humanist or interviewer you know if a country and i don't know the u.k. for years but if a country bias 4 times the amounts of vaccines then it's a pure lation you know one has to ask questions why. and you know with accurate referring to the last question as we get mutations and more mutations will occur that is the natural lifecycle of any virus. we hope that the production of the vaccines using the same technology the messenger r.n.a. be able to take these protein variants and make new a vaccines but coming back to the politics of you know honestly i find it difficult to understand quiet country would would have so many vaccines you know ok if you're going to give 2 doses you obviously need double your population protect 4 times.

what you need is excessive coming back to your figure we're seeing you're saying that's on africa's got the highest infection rates one has to remember that in africa the observation and the epidemiology and the studies looking at facts and testing in the rest of the african countries is not nearly as definitive to south africa so we really don't know the extent of the coronavirus this in africa one of the things in favor of africa is that we have an inverted population pyramid where the majority of people are actually in the younger age groups whereas in europe you have an inverted pyramid and most of your affiliation are sitting in the very elderly age groups and that's maybe one of the reasons why africa has got a low incidence of the low it death rates and ok we're just going to have to wrap up what we have a run a minute left if you want to maybe leave with

a sentence with your views just so we know where you stand just starting at with cuber out. we have to work on this matter on a global patent rather than individually i know politically we have to look after our population but we need to bear in mind that this is a global thing and we need to work globally marcelo. destination programs do very very much you know to defeat the voters it should be continued and the more people are fascinated the better so that's that's not to be stopped when it has to stop a lot of the science you know of the old process in the producing a distribution you are seeing that have seen from the very beginning we have to stop. having profit before the public health benefits which the reason how to distribute innocence in the 'd last word to you we have to overcome vaccine ignorance of people who don't want the vaccine disparities coach or

a long time and we may be taking a curve in vaccine your early we've been speaking to the right playing county our senior clinical lecturer at the university of exeter medical school marcelo friday denali epidemiologist founder of swedish doctors for human rights and alan peter paul will just in johannesburg thank you all well for a deeper dive into any of this horror stories may i recommend r.t. dot com as a solid base fresh content lively and always has always to be found there i'm going and we'll see you soon. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business i'm showbusiness i'll see you then. is your media a reflection of reality. in
