position and it starts going wrong that's where and when you're vulnerable this is when the problem really starts women are paying an unnecessarily high price for serving join the army be the best it's the height of serving your country but it turns out some women are facing horrific battles of their own imagine $4000.00 people a brigade that can be deployed anywhere without very same number of women both surfing and veterans have now come forward with shocking experiences in the army from bullying and harassment to serious sexual assault when it's to make a complaint often to appear to treat somebody here lamest and makes out woman feel like she's just lame like she was asking sorry it's everywhere else in the welsh military sexual trauma is recognized in yeast in a child that parents should be able to identify that the subject traumatic puts a name to h. and people can access help in this country it just didn't recognize that sexual trauma the issue has long been swept under the carpet among the ranks according to

the ministry of defense figures in the 5 years to 2019 almost $130.00 sexual violence cases were hired at military court martials just 10 percent resulted in conviction many of course fail to even reach this stage.

the number is increasing year on year with the majority of alleged sexual predators still among the ranks according to women's testimonies within the current military system it is extremely hard to report a sexual crime and receive support help and justice that women wait with here to teach me a service company. or. is a criminal act. the feel 8 best at the school was stunned existant so i think the investigation was you know i severely i'm cheesed i think that women which feel more support i mean our system or do not being the worst brought stories to change their evidence and to generally be. almost gaslighted to draw a story and not take it all but while women on the frontline fight to protect their

country it seems like their country is failing to protect than shot edward stashed r.t. in london. another of our headlines stories today australia has asked the european commission to review its the solution to cancel a shipment of astra zeneca vaccines to the country it will use the new export control mechanism to block the delivery after the company field to meet its supply contract with the new talking the story for us or europe correspondent peter oliver . well right at the center of this are 250000 doses of the astra zeneca job they were going to be transported from italy to australia as part of a contract astra zeneca has with the australian government it's really put in place the export control mechanism that the e.u. brought in after astra zeneca failed to live up to its end of the contract it had with the european union now australia has asked the e.u.

commission to review this decision but despite that the australian prime minister has said he'll understand where italy is coming from in italy people are dying at the right of 300 a diety and so i can certainly understand the high level of anxiety that would exist in italy and in many countries or across europe well one of the reasons that scott morrison could afford to be so understanding or not is that australia does have the cillit east to produce its own vaccine in fact the deputy health minister of the state of victoria said it was lucky that they have that in light of these doses from the e.u. not looking like they're arriving in australia any time soon but while the australian side of be understanding there's been some concern expressed particularly by one german m.e.p. he says this sets a well known easy precedent pandora's box opened mystique if transparency mechanism leads defacto to an export ban unfortunately foreseeable and avoidable

carte blanche for imitators could have fatal consequences on supply chains pro-u. to global bussell overcovered 19 vaccines escalation preprogrammed the rules as they are at the moment in the e.u. allow member states to block the shipment of doses of vaccines from their territory if a manufacturer has not fulfilled the contracts that have been signed that was the case with astra zeneca and with italy france has said the. i completely side with italy in this and they french health minister said that if the shoe was on the other foot if it was france that was in this position they would have done exactly the same thing the french foreign ministry has gone even further they've said that a you member state should look inwards and focus on you member states getting vaccines and not what denmark and austria have been doing and looking abroad for cooperation all conviction remains very clear that the most effective solution to

meet vaccination needs must continue to be based on the european framework well austria and denmark of both signed a deal to work with israel when it comes to the development of future vaccines the austrian chancellor said the reason that they've done this is in his eyes and from his experience of what's going on with the use one for all and all for one vaccine for cumin program is that it can't be the only thing his citizens have to rely on discipline them it can only be overcome through global cooperation and defeat me also all agree did rick seaney rule allow us to return to normality in the summer. but we have to prepare are already known for the next stages of the pandemic after the some experts say that in austria alone we will need $30000000.00 doses in the next few years while looking to the future is also important for

a number of all the e.u. nations that are either already in the grip of for preparing for a potential 3rd wave of covert 19 here in germany the main area of concern is what's going on with mutated variants of the virus and how they will be affected or affect how they will impact upon vaccines when it comes to vaccines and that vaccine arsenal though russia's sputnik v job is currently being reviewed by the european medicines agency and that could well be rolled out given the green light to be used across the very shortly peter all of our digging into that one for us and we also got some reaction from a number of guests this is what they have been telling us. so it's a country putting its interests ahead of others in the context of the pandemic and vaccines are clearly the only guy in charge of their research the implications are think how lists of v.

for a country walk and straw you then they would be for poor and around the world we know that as recently as a few weeks ago the vast majority of viable vaccine was in the athlon my shins of the world and or ny sions were missing out of the countries that i think i'm most at risk and vaccination with this is not not nationalism i mean that we have such as a national contrie a contract with a set of them and they don't want or expect that this contract that we need we don't have in this moment so a lot of cold people he needs money are still die have are they have a lot of people are still taking the coronavirus because we don't have the best since so is normal that our government led by driving this side to stop the shipment of some buses that are produced in need to get that the country not in the european union. a court in germany has temporarily blocked the

intelligence services from monitoring the alternative for germany party pending a judge's final decision on land the f.t. is the largest opposition force in the german parliament and has hit by a count the proposed surveillance describing it as a purely political effort to undermine the party head of federal elections in september. a few days for france the aim of the federal office for the protection of the constitution and counterterrorism is obviously in the short term to weaken us until the elections and in the long term to destroy the elderly opposition party in parliament that opposes the dissolution of the nation state and unlimited immigration from foreign cultures. the federal intelligence service had intended to look into the a.f. these alleged ties to far right extremists as well as an attempt to undermine germany's constitution some of the party's regional branches have reportedly been monitored for some time already. well so far the authorities have not

commented on either the proposed surveillance of the party or that recent court ruling in a 100 so far left of tea for up to this this week rallied against the f.t. during a campaign event in the city of often back scuffles with police broke out when protesters attempted to reach the stage where party officials were speaking we've been hearing from some members of the a.f.p. they believe the recent moves or orchestrated. they have the political mandate in order to get this rid of the competitor as a political competitor we have the strongest opposition party and what we have to do is a position is to criticize the government and that's what we do we do with respect to to the euro rescue parties huge favor that we do it with the migration policy which is very dangerous for us in germany in the population doesn't want it we do it in the energy crisis we face so we actually have an opposition which really

harms the government and that's why they want to get rid of us using this central intelligence civilians the very same day when the. domestic secret service got a cult altar not to call the $850.00 an extremist group on xmas all the material was given to leftist papers which are very critical towards safety they got all the material while we're still in the dark and i mean if this is not a sign for clearly political move on i don't know what such a move else could be. for all mussed or e r t dot com has you covered you will find there in an exclusive interview a senior member talking about what he calls the dreaming conflict with the a sculpture. under there you can check out into elements as well the 1st. reese

from yesterday was a joint to almost all in removing some classic doctors children's hoped it would claims of racial discrimination robin morphew waiting for what's. coming and. going at. it.

russia e.u. relations right an impasse the kremlin has made it clear it will no longer tolerate the e.u. lecturing about values and so-called international norms and the russians are bad enough the e.u. interference in russia's internal politics refuses to treat russia as an equal partner until those changes despite a lot of relationship appears to be on hold. less than 2 months in the white house president biden is already facing a growing crisis on the southern border in an attempt to reverse donald trump's remain in mexico policy the bible team promised to millions of illegal migrants

already living in the u.s. which according to one study could lead to a dramatic increase in the country's foreign born population are to scale up and takes up the story. thousands are at the u.s. border wearing joe biden t. shirts begging the u.s. president to let them in they are among millions currently headed for the same border. joe biden doesn't see a crisis brewing his whole plan to deal with the border issue boils down to hope and a prayer. yes i do want to laugh a lot. is

a ministration doesn't see a problem either just a challenge and they're ready to welcome more migrants do you believe right prices at the border i see. the answer is no i think there is a challenge at the border that we are managing and we have our resources dedicated to jimmy energy we are not saying don't come we are saying don't come now because we will be able to deliver safe and orderly process to them as quickly as possible biden moved to undo the trumpet ministrations migration policy one of the 1st moves was to set up a juvenile detention facility but he insists this is not kids in cages it's prompted the migrant crisis spawns a lot of crime and just 3 days 1600 migrants were arrested with criminals reportedly among them and criminal organizations have certainly flourished among communities there are afraid to call the police out of fear of deportation and

there are people coming across a large number that are criminals a lot of people just looking for a better way of life. fortunately it could create a situation where they may be vulnerable to criminal organizations trying to abuse them critics say the white house is just not being realistic about the potential dangers of its policy the green light is on now we're open for business again and that is the message should be sending to the traffickers who are smuggling these kids across the border polls show that trumps border wall remains very popular despite that congress is moving forward on what the democrats call sweeping immigration legislation presenting an 8 year path to citizenship for $11000000.00 people in the country without papers such an amnesty would be adding a new layer of u.s. citizenship roughly the size of california the whole of allow people to come in.

or. out of. jobs is going to be a major task to hand and i think the government the u.s. government. and. all of these illegal immigration status already a lot of them. do today and then take a lot of business is going to close 1000000 people out of war and illegal across the border are getting larger and the country is becoming more polarized while trump may be gone the immigration debate is getting more intense it's becoming the most polarizing issue in a country that is already quite divided kaleb up and artsy new york well let's just stay with this story and look at some of the reaction in the to throw on that the governor of texas he's among those 'd who fired back at the immigration plans let's take a listen. the biden ministration was releasing illegal immigrants it illegal immigrants

into our communities who had tobit that is neanderthal type approach to dealing with the cobra situation there's a reason why he used that word we'll get to in just a moment but people in this state also took aim at biden after he slammed the state governor's decision to relax covert restriction in texas this is what he said. the last the last thing. of all thank you. for taking us for good still after that should not be saying those kind of things that's very insulting and he. criticized everybody else and. the democrats and they drove my hair in their boots on the on the necks of the people in this country telling them what to do oh i don't think there's any 1st time he's calling you know i don't think you should be calling us neanderthals he

wants to talk about you need to eat with the list is 1st thing ok thank you cannot call people names you just have to respect. criticism over the use of the word neanderthal has even come from germany a museum there felt the need to stick up for the ancient humans tweeting joe biden to say the species was smarter than you might think meanwhile texas is still registering over 7500 new coronavirus cases a day little though there's been a decline in infections and deaths in recent weeks at almost 45000 fatalities it does have the 3rd covert death rate per state in the u.s. nevertheless texans still support the decision to relax restrictions. tired of not being able to go and do things we wanted to we're glad to get our masks rocked and go and live life again that's how i feel about it i think it's time to open up to open up the restaurants and everybody go different places and forget today i'm

going to my chiropractor a blanket for the 1st time any year opening up the business is great if you have to go out your risk anyway so why not just but get it over with and get back to normal i think it's a good thing to get the economy back making sure we don't have any problems with. i work with the public so i don't have any problem with the virus has become politically. speaking here. the texas governor justified the decision citing economic concerns on the start of a vaccination program in the state and you also said that cruel and virus hospitalizations were at their lowest since october but some believe the state should be penalized for the move and not receive vaccines at all texas we hear you you didn't want to be part of our electrical grid and now you've removed your mask mandate and then relearning large krantz together we hear you code it is

a hoax so you don't need our precious vaccine we'll send it to people who are saving lives by wearing masks why are we wasting vaccinations on texas if texas has decided to join the side of the virus and earlier we spoke to radio host and political commentator wayne allen roots about texas its plans to battle through the pandemic and the reaction to them. texas has this image of mavericks and rebels and conservatives that have voted it big for donald trump and it's the symbol that democrats and liberals and communists and socialists in america ate and so they're using texas as the whipping boy texas is a symbol of freedom and if it ever comes to it if there's ever a division of our country there's a session or what i like to call a divorce you go our way we go our way everyone separates text this would be the leading state that would say look we're not going to follow biden's rules anymore

because this is start to be ridiculous and so i think they've always aimed their guns at census because it represents freedom and it steers the big government big brother bureaucrats it's ridiculous overreaction makes no sense of course there are cases of course people get the infection it's highly contagious nobody could say oh i have the key to it i'll never get sick you have to weigh risk vs reward let everyone live their lives who's under the age of 75 and be very careful and spend a lot of money for checked in the people who are over 75. now let's move the program on must kidnappings in nigeria have become an all too common occurrence in the african nation almost 300 girls school girls were freed this week just days after they were abducted but they were union ceremony and of in chaos when frustrated parents began throwing stones at officials dr drew fire from security

forces artie's nikki r. and has been examining whether the international community should be doing more to improve the booty in the region. from gangs kidnapping for ransom the 2 armed groups over running and tire towns the nigerian government faces a minefield of security challenges. and. you feel you. really seems to be no end to nigeria's problems the most recent case saudi hardest slinks to the islamic state attacked a u.n. base trapping 25 aid workers the attack started last night and as information is still coming through i'm outraged to hear the promises of several aid agencies and a hospital reportedly set ablaze or sustained damage this violent attack will

affect the support provided to nearly 100000 people who are desperately in need of humanitarian assistance and protection the long running instability has sparked concern among the international community which has been vocal about the need to tackle the issues in this our whole region as you did a security guarantee in the protection of our fellow citizens makes the fight against islamic terrorism the 1st priority of our foreign policy. that yearly of course we need international corporation above all in the fight against international islamist terrorism cooperation with the usa and cohesion within the e.u. and this international corporation must be improved. the sale is a microcosm of cascading global risks converging in one region. it is a warning sign for those requiring urgent attention and resolution so what's being done well france has had troops on the ground since 2014 and there's currently no

plan for there patrick ation but the numbers are me a little over $5000.00 with just over a 1000 more to arrive and it's not nigeria as a whole that's the focus significant changes will undoubtedly be made to our military system in the sahil into course but they were not take place immediately and while s. it's in the region have failed to raise any hope they have raised eyebrows here's what about the stock think tank had to say the reason germany and france is unsuccessful we've been counterproductive strategies in both crisis states is that stabilization is a goal usually plays a subordinate role nigeria is africa's most populous region its biggest economy and largest oil producer but many of its people live in poverty and it's now over run with the worrying a ray of intelligent security threats alarm bells should be ringing and now doing so what will it take before relief is brought to nigeria or counter terror experts

tell me top a low dose a combined effort is needed to help bring about an end to such situations in nigeria. one of the biggest challenge than i general faces today is a lot of unexpected implementation plan to reduce dialectic extremism so nigeria is really similar situation and the need to walk would translate into what we. call at least out west africa to make sure it was to make sure that he sort of our listens to music is dealt with collectively and not individually help manchuria help them build a tele get structure because help them in the process if i had stopped short of classmates on the ground because if not inducted goes into chaos europe would do all away. well that is are up for no but don't go too far as more great programs

get their start in moments find out what is showing wherever you are today after the shortest the breaks and. there is a miss metabolife small molecule that embodies make up and make less of it as we get older this is one of the things i work on it's called. because we have less of it we become more prone to infection and the crazy thing is that could 19th sars could be to one of the ways of attacking the body to deplete the body even more of that chemical which we need to fight infections. and you hear the other day when it was that made it in the congressional hearing the f.b.i. might have illegally acquired information from members of congress on or after

january 6 we're going to give you the details on this very alarming story this security was on high alert today at the u.s. capitol because of an alleged at threat of violence by a militia group we're going to give you 360 of you up with our political panel and california has just announced they are going to try and phase out a gasoline powered cars from use within their state with one city now going as far as to ban all the new gas stations this as there is a campaign to recall governor newsome continuing to get stronger we have one of the leaders from that movement right here today to discuss i am now hughes and you're watching news view on our to america.
