9:02 am
don't have firearms only but tons of the security of behind the fence over there well they do have automatic automatic firearms and you know as far as what's going on right now here on the street well you can see people behind me they just kind of wandering around chatting peacefully about the latest news. several dozen opponents of the incumbent prime minister any called question and stayed here overnight demanding his resignation and from you know what we're seeing here there are they are bracing for a prolonged standoff set up tense barricades loading up and supplies and fire wars i guess this is another sign that the latest round of the power struggle in armenia could be here to stay and was spoke with several people from the crowd some of them were members of the opposition parties and they didn't mince their words when talking about nicole pasha and his policy. issue and i mean you know some of the
9:03 am
moans haven't changed we call in the prime minister to step down we will make him quits but only through public press show through the constitution will seeking decision by force the general stuff simply called him passion and to create it he decided to branded an attempt at millet's recruit that was the last straw was what it was today we had to get to. fight to the end this enemy must leave the country to restore and everything that you see here it came after a turbulent chain of events in the country's capital yesterday the protests were sparked by or mean is top military command called on the prime minister to step down claiming and i quote that he is an effective management has led the country to the brink of death on immediately fired back accusing those who demanded his resignation of an attempted coup and called to his supporters to take to the streets you know the opposition that backed the military commanders stage its own rail. when you're yvonne as fighter jets flew past. my old the old soldiers
9:04 am
offices generals do your job god borders on the territorial integrity of armenia this is my order and no one can disobey today we're holding this rally and will finish all actions we will sit down at the negotiating table with the opposition for consultations on elections well right now it seems like the prime minister is trying to tone it down a bit he took to his facebook this morning claiming that he has done a lot for the country's military a crease salaries and you know bought plenty of new equipment but it's unlikely that that the masses will resonate among hard core opposition that is present here at the parliament and yesterday we saw that the situation on the ground can ask away fast. was was
9:05 am
. right. right now it's a wait and see approach the opposition has called on a massive rally in your avant well for us we're going to keep our fingers on the pulse. of sins rushkoff reporting that will to force their message position supporters to pull out of and streets on thursday power lies in traffic and passion on himself will say them march through the straits of the capital with his supporters who had this to say. without review into the square answering the call for more prime minister we stand with him to the end he must put an end to all this there are of course failures but this form of governmental funds issues is definitely not acceptable to the government should be charged to elections in which only the people have the decisive vote we came to see our prime minister of the republic square saw the whole world knows that the people support him and an attempted military coup in such difficult times seems an
9:06 am
acceptable to me while national tensions escalated back in november that was after the signing of a peace deal between armenia and azerbaijan over the disputed region of nagorno-karabakh armenians government had valid victory in the war but the agreement was seen as a humiliating defeat back then demonstrators reacted to the troops by storming the government building in their van they strongly oppose the prime minister's decision to end the fighting adding that they won't give up the territory ceded under the deal and have agreed to let as a vision hold on to key parts of the area many armenians that do say that will never forgive him for the laws we got reaction on the developments with the former prime minister of the corner cutting back. i think that what he's doing he's doing very deliberately it's a mission given to him by someone from the west we all believe that he came to power with one goal to draw russia away from the southern caucasus from armenia to
9:07 am
make russia leave the region so that the turkish military can enter the southern caucasus so that nato can gain a foothold in the region this did not have the support of the military or the people essentially the whole of civil society demands that the prime minister step down i do not believe that he can survive this. or much of the volatility to has been fueled by. weaponry while the prime minister claimed that russian made a scandal systems had failed. the russian defense ministry has announced that armenia did not use the weapon in the go and i cut it back late last year. ok. chalk it up a little bit michael. to my. feet . why the iskenderun that fired did not explode or only exploded 10 percent off.
9:08 am
to. the prime minister and the governments of all media no longer able to make adequate decisions in this fateful and critical situation for the armenian people given the current situation in the home forces of the resignation of the prime minister and the government. i'm. i but i explicitly spoke to you to tell us that the any democratic way out of this crisis is to go to snap elections. should be up to the people to decide
9:09 am
their form of government spent certainly the military will want to have their say they're upset you know that they lost the war. they want to make sure that they have a stake in the outcome of the next election you know they really want to force men to positional work he asked to leave office and we'll just see how the prime minister is able to maneuver and handle such a delicate situation people looking to blame people or contrary to their sickly except a new reality which is to have lost a lot of territory but it didn't stop the war machine are mostly to blame for that it's the military in the build up for many years of not only in the military probably. going to see dr physically remove him. to take care of. the new normal sort of military coup where they would lose to a lot of the jitteriness you'd see in times they were continually pushing him soon
9:10 am
i think you know action solution is the best for everybody including for 0 and just opposition has a very good chance of winning so if they have certain. because we don't want to she's in street refused to shoot demonstrations perhaps we need to fight you don't need coming in and finding some resistance from us officials sort of elections is the best solution for everybody. because the news now and the health attorneys have warned against reporting plans to make the japs mandatory for someone is pointing out that it could be illegal england's chief medical officer has already told health staff that getting in or kill a to take on the national health service is reportedly considering making it obligatory an employee spots and a chest talked to both this that some medical workers do see it as an attack on their autonomy. the idea of making the nation compulsory is very short.
9:11 am
ited we need to understand the dam if there has been done to the trust of the medical profession given the government's already chaotic and much criticized handling of the endemic we've already lost a 1000 health and social. work force due to the pandemic people have been working exhaustingly long hours have witnessed tragic scenes and to attack their professional judgment and autonomy by making this compulsory i think is another straw to break the camel's back on meanwhile u.k. medical chiefs to say too that the number of coronavirus patients has dropped and pressure on the n.h.s. is easing and officials have suggested that the country's coded alert level should now be downgraded what with that in mind bob gilligan says that mandatory inoculation could actually backfire if you make vaccination part of your terms of employment then what does
9:12 am
a doctor do if it erode their risk losing their job and losing their profession that they've studied and worked so hard for or they comply so it's quite a big stick to beat the profession with i don't think anybody could argue against the evidence for vaccination and what the government should try to do is understand if there is significant reluctance why that is support those be all provide the more information but not to coerce them it was a survey early on in the pandemic which showed the vast majority all doctors certainly felt that the government had completely missed and on the ground a virus and demick and that confidence nothing has really happened to improve that confidence in government. now bush believes fragging travel industry could be just months away and it is likely to come in the form of a cave with vaccination digital pass or at least that's according to the german chancellor. a thought with respect to digital vaccination bass all member states
9:13 am
agree that when he has a thing the technical preparations were done by the european commission as well as member states in january now when he temperament that's said that there is compatibility among different national passes we in germany have decided that it will develop such a vaccination pass the key data that has digital past mass contained have been defined by the european commission and member states. of particular merkel there may have jumped the gun with the european commission president yet to confirm anything solid with more his shot at the big. vaccine certificates of controversial put it does seem after what angered local said that this could be completely for the you know germany and france who originally said to be resistive to this idea but the fact that she's now giving it the green light well that is a game changer but while it seems that merkel was saying that face it being approved there was a bit of a different story coming out from the leaders in the official statement it wasn't
9:14 am
so sure essentially saying that they won't be a coalmine approaching this would be an issue with this it is this is what vulgarly and that say on the vaccine certificates. indeed we discussed this topic as you know there are still a number of open question political question the 1st one is of course what these certificates will be used for but they're also scientific question that are still open shots of computer. and low to me to draw attention to the fact that when i say health passed that cannot depend on one's vaccination because if we manage at some point in this bring to reopen some of these places we cannot condition their axles and whether one has been one x. native where we wouldn't have even opened the vaccination campaign to the younger should not the call for a vaccine stupid you originally came from countries like greece and cyprus who already greenlit their own plans to allow travelers from the u.k.
9:15 am
and from israel to go there at holiday this year if they can show that they've been in iraq elated but there's huge criticism of this idea especially given the massive problems there have been rolling up the couvade 900 vaccine here in the u.k. many feel that this would essentially create a 2 tier system it would be unfair a form of discriminations there have also been many major issues surrounding the supply of coke with 900 vaccines have been distribution issues in lower ringback than expected deliveries and worse still some european leaders have been pretty sniffy about some of the vaccines particularly the astra zeneca vaccine now the e.u. leaders following their video conference on thursday also clenched quickly for beijing all the coke 900 vaccines this is what the joint statement clearly does have to say we need to urgently excel or raid that water rise ocean production and distribution of back since as well as vaccination russia says it's ready to step up and send
9:16 am
doses of sputnik the to you that vaccine was recently given a glowing report in the medical journal the lancet which ranked it as being one of the most fair. that scene's followed us. said he would urge me but of course that will be subject to the tree approval you're not international still to come to this hour surely a pass is the world's personal or forcing google and facebook to pay thing use content will have a closer look at this and its implications just after the break. when
9:17 am
9:18 am
though again our strategy has become the 1st country to force tech giants to pay publishers for news content they're always designed to make facebook and google pay a fair price to the media although facebook had taken the unprecedented step of blocking news posts in this trailer until the government has made changes to the legislation with more his trinity chabris. facebook is refreshing australia after a tumultuous month that saw facebook poll news from its platform and protests the tech giant will restore news pages in the country following a landmark agreement with the government experts say more countries may follow the internet platforms need to comply with the rule of law or if they are doing business in australia australia officially implementing a law that forces tech titans including google and facebook to pay local media outlets and publishers to link their content in news feeds or in search results the
9:19 am
whole purpose of the humanitarian crisis has been to give a strong incentive to the digital platforms to do commercial deals with the struggling news media businesses google already striking deals with major australian news businesses in recent weeks including news corp and 7 west media while facebook is promising to pay $1000000000.00 over 3 years to the news industry adding that the social media platform has invested a $600000000.00 since 2018 we're working across the full range of the areas where it is important to make sure that the rule ringback of law applies in relation to all of the things that we do online with the internet and the bipolar vices of modern life the so-called news media bargaining code comes just days after the government introduced some last minute amendments to the proposed bill after fierce pushback from both google and facebook we've agreed to make some clarifications to the code when it comes to the designation process by the treasurer of a particular digital platform
9:20 am
a one month notice period will be put in place the country's unprecedented new law has been vigorously debated in recent months facebook even shut down news pages in opposition of the legislation last week those actions were completely indefensible after serious back and forth australia's treasurer josh frydenberg and facebook chief executive mark zuckerberg finally came to an agreement for facebook has refer . a straight up in return facebook agreed to restore the news pages and lift a ban on australians accessing and sharing news australian officials say this new law will ensure news media businesses are fairly compensated for content they generate now many are wondering if there will be similar legislation implemented in other countries already facebook is exploring potential news licensing agreements in canada while microsoft is working with european publishers to push big tech platforms to pay for news in new york trinity chávez r.t.

temporary accommodation. germany's small groups have been hit hard by the closure of bars and restaurants during the pandemic and many and i warning that they may not survive this pace of all of the reports. i was whether it's munich's october 1st all colognes carnival plays a big role germany's big celebrations has hit those parties hard as the need to implement coronavirus measures the scene cancelled and bars and restaurants closed which in turn has had a knock on effect for brewers who really bad this is situation off the smaller breweries because say they're off selling their bureaus in restaurants and pops and this you know pops and restaurants are closed since november so there is no real sales at the moment for them beer sales of actually being declining in germany for
9:24 am
a while now understood to be due to health concerns but over the last year they have gone off a cliff 17.3 percent down on year on year sales for april 14 point one percent down for november so look to diversify to move with the times when it caught in bavaria overturned a ruling banning the sale of alcohol in public spaces last month this brewery in munich set up a machine as i mean so we have here the mobile tank which was created with 2 other companies and here you have fresh 10 beer and the you can tap using their all the have to do is download the top of your credit card and then if you scan secure code you can type directly through the app and also be contact less so that is also entirely covered conformant while a brewery near nuremberg saw their lock down creation vaccine the 2000
9:25 am
cans they produced selling out in just over 3 hours cans and bottles they usually the territory of the larger producers the vast majority of germany small brewers sell direct to bars and restaurants all. all of which are closed with no real indication when they'll reopen the german government towers provided financial aid and while it has helped it isn't a solution over 300 brewers have signed an open letter sent to angle of merkel's government warning of an existential crisis in the industry while a lot of the talk has been about getting schools shops and hairdressers open there's no end in sight to covert restrictions on the hospitality industry if i can open i have to take on more debt but i really need an opening date i understand that it's difficult with the situation as it is but if i don't have an opening date i don't know. how much money i will need to until that day and i constantly will
9:26 am
need to keep looking for more money somewhere and this is just it's i'm just immense challenge and eventually it will not work any more and eventually water won't make any sense this breweries use the time that they've been closed during the pandemic to upgrade production facilities in order to allow them to sell beer in pounds but that's all comes with extra costs and the extra costs come with extra risks just by a government support alone it's impossible to survive this so it's just more and more debt and eventually it's already almost impossible to get money from banks because they're seeing the situation as it is and why would they give businesses that are basically bankrupt at this stage why would they give them money so it shows private investors that you rely on that you hope that they were believe in the business believe that they can come back strong the hope is that scenes like these can be seen again by the someone who fears over the variance of covert 19 spreading through germany as many painting
