their own behavior once a false confession is taken the case is closed nobody really can tell the difference between a good confession and one that isn't. here with the breakdown of the stories that shaped the week is the struggle to get its vaccination program off the ground supposed to the. becoming the 2nd country in the block to get. in medicines watchdog starts unrolling review of the russian vaccine we hear from the head of the fund behind the job. with the major your view leaders should be very protective of the standard of the procedure bridge. in europe and for most people who is. living in i am friends family new zealand says nobody should be off limits when it comes to informing on cope with this. and the
5:01 am
end of nations being bombed into democracy joe biden's administration says no more u.s. backed regime change we asked for the old habits die hard. either thanks for joining us you're watching the weekly i'm not. here faltering vaccination program has already seen hungry in slovakia breaking ranks with the blog to get russia spinning. gave its inoculation campaign a shot in the arm just this week the czech republic is considering doing the same undiscussed the story with our correspondent. so there's 3 european nations that have a green light to dispute it despite the european medicines agency taking its time really taking its time to approve sputnik so these 3 nations have already sidelined
5:02 am
the european union and of the said look the situation is incredibly desperate. czech republic hungry and now slovakia's which is received its 1st batch of sputnik vaccines there's going to be millions more that is going to be delivered by summer so the prime minister's obviously very happy that he's managed to secure more vaccines for the people nevertheless there is now a scandal there's a scandal because the president of slovakia has come out she paid lip service to people's lives but all typically she is she said that vaccination shouldn't be carried out at the expense of political stability of course saving lives goes beyond any political controversy but even exceptional actions can be taken in such a way so as not to destroy the ruling coalition humiliate opponents or question people's confidence in vaccinations and cause further conflict in society it is remarkable coming out in front of your people in the middle of
5:03 am
a pandemic and telling them. you know your health is important but what is even more important is the stability of the ruling coalition. you know it just goes to highlight that the deep divisions in europe and there are incredibly deep divisions in europe over the way the pandemic vaccination in the rule out of the vaccines has been handled it isn't the russian vaccine that is undermining people's faith in the european union it is their handling of this crisis in germany for example 51 percent of people asked in a recent poll whether you know the the vaccination has been handled well or badly by the european union 51 percent more than half of germans have said it's been shambles the way the european union has had. so initially the european union came out and said look let's let's all do it together so give up your power new nation needs to by the actions by themselves we'll handle so we'll get you the vaccines
5:04 am
but then of actions and what ultimately happened is they bungled it 1st they were too expensive then they were too late because the united states britain snatched up all the vaccines look at the statistics only 5 percent of europeans have been able to get a single job that is compared to 30 percent in the united kingdom so europe is lagging far far behind that european nations understand that this is a catastrophe this is a catastrophe a huge number of levels of a political level of the health care level and ultimately what has happened is that all these nations have said look we're going to do this ourselves obviously the european agencies the euro kratz they have fumbled this so we'll have that ourselves you have poland running to the chinese with hands outstretched begging for that scene quotas you have austria going out and saying that you know we're going to now cooperate with israel to develop a 2nd generation vaccines denmark as well saying that will work with israel and 2nd
5:05 am
generations vaccine to target all the strains and ultimately the austrian chancellor so this is a leader of a european nation coming out and saying they've lost hoops in europe the way that europe handles vaccine rollout. we must prepare for further mutations and should no longer be dependent soley on the e.u. in the production of 2nd generation vaccines look brussels understands that what has happened has been a catastrophe you have officials the european union coming out and say we're sort of apologizing to citizens all over europe for the way they've handled things but saying that you know it isn't is a do over yet we can still recover we'll get your vaccines there's no need to run around and make shady deals and you know buy up vaccines the supposed to be received by other european nations you have a situation where it's a free for all now nevertheless the europeans assure that they can fix things and then now saying that perhaps perhaps we'll try to speed up the whole bureaucratic
5:06 am
process that has caused all of this and get you a merge and see approval for vaccines now it could be an emergency authorization of vaccines it's you level we should liability among member states remember in the early days of the pandemic when countries all over the world nato allies the neighbors board put up supplies from each other so we're talking about mosques ventilators we all remember the diplomatic crises that that caused this situation now is remarkably similar so so there is no united front you know it's what you can get your hands on you get your hands on and this is a situation that obviously isn't optimal for europe in these difficult times especially economically politically all over the world nevertheless european bureaucrats aren't giving up hope they believe that they can still fix things the
5:07 am
problem is of course that member states don't believe that they can the e.u. medicines what star has started a rolling review of russia spending of events seen that of the russian direct investment fund the driving force behind the drug he said the vaccine could help relations between russia and europe. russia's most insisting on supplied it's like scene we hear few demand is really very significant so we're working on the it was found tres the last really want a russian vaccine that is up we you do see easy ones point nuke us part of there we've seen strategy if so what the role will play there but it would definitely are open and that we will work very closely was being made to provide them with all of the information and we are also looking forward to zone visits and production facilities of wood because while we believe that the barriers of mistrust and different laws being efforts against we see will not succeed in face off
5:08 am
will really 0 but we all need to date which is the road to save lives of people and i think more and more politicians understands us that rather than trying to you know beat them off the cult who'll have been a choice of which seems it's much better to actually speak things out with the major european leaders actually being very pretty magic and understanding of the big scene is actually would bridge between russia and europe and from the new political. will reduce use of several countries like hungary in slovakia already approved those would hear directly we have been approached by several other nations and it's very important that you know when luke rules this directly to them of violating any regulations in the u.s. so you actually clarified for a time period slovakia really unfolds the exact procedure this is or you can do in piece of emergency health situations which will obviously call it
5:09 am
a day maybe just so it's up to the regulator to decide on firing. we need to make sure that people have a choice of axioms and of course different agencies need to grow their save but it's very important most political choice is a people who deserve to tell a good. critics call just. because you know maybe from humor but i don't think. we believe that it has been proved to be steve aids and many people will choose specifically as your mom you know why don't you told you because. the 1st case of corona virus was detected in a russian national one year ago on march 1st a 2nd look at how the following 12 months here of i'm told it.
5:10 am
friends family and neighbors no one should be off the snooping radar when it comes to covert rule breakers at least according to new zealand's prime minister and as informing become yet another symptom of the pandemic he avin has a story. amidst the many lockdowns thousands of face masks and gallons of hand sanitizer coverage is also encourage families and friends to reconnect check in more often to family quizzes but also question who we can really trust in new zealand kiwis have been encouraged to turn detective and report to any rule
5:11 am
breakers they come across whether they be your friendly local greengrocer or your dear old grandma even with a full understanding of human fallibility it is not appropriate and it is not r.k. a members of the team of 5000000 to let the rest of us down and it seems it's a proven practice remember last year when the shit number of do the snitching on their neighbors was so overwhelming it crashed a police website we've had 4200 reports of people believing compline again it shows. determined. to ensure that everyone complies with us convinced the idea of turning us into a world of informers is the key to compliance leaders across the globe competed for the most creative ways to encourage as though to tell allays mare opted for a cash incentive you know the old expression about snitches well in this case
5:12 am
snitches get rewards we want to thank you for turning folks in and making sure we are all safe in washington police transformed a local up for a residence into an express line to rat on your neighbor with governor inslee stay home stay healthy order in effect the bellevue police have developed an easy way for residents to report violations reports logged into the my build view would generate a heat map showing where there are potentially illegal gatherings or business activity in italy such was the strength of the all seeing army they decided to make it official and created 60000 jobs for those who felt the need to daub in others and no souls were spared in germany as even politicians felt the wrath of the school you'd think the public might have been appalled by those measures but the enthusiasm was so overwhelming there's some police stations in the u.k. were receiving so many calls that they had to create
5:13 am
a separate special hotline for the hordes of curtain twitching do gooders now there's nothing wrong with asking people to remain vigilant and helpful we all have to do our bit but what happens when coburn itself coughs it's lost in the pandemic finally blows over the curtain twitchers will just be left nervously twitching hoping to once again be friends and not enemies. washington says no more costly foreign military interventions with president biden strongly supporting their toes bombing of yugoslavia back in the ninety's and secretary of state blinken advocating supplying ukraine with weapons we ask whether the new slogan is likely to translate into a real policy shift we will incentivize democratic behavior. but we will not promote democracy through costly military interventions or by attempting to overthrow oratory regimes by force. we've tried these tactics in the past. however
5:14 am
well intentioned they haven't worked quite an interesting use of words but the pattern from the united states of intervening in the affairs of other countries destabilizing and overthrowing governments around the world is quite well known one looks at the history of iraq of libya afghanistan one looks throughout south and central america one can see many examples of the united states intervening in other countries affairs destabilizing and overthrowing governments and in fact in recent years we've heard many calls from u.s. leaders for governments around the world to be overthrown and for leaders to step down assad needs to go we will continue to work with our partners in the international community to press. the to leave the time has come for nicholas murderer to go what's interesting is that we actually had a tweet from anthony blinken in which he gave full support to one kwaito one great 0 is an individual in venezuela who has proclaimed himself to be the president and has been engaging in violent attempts to destabilize venezuela to overthrow the
5:15 am
elected government and there of even been u.s. military contractors that have been involved in those military coup attempts so having anthony blinken you know you know voicing support for one great oh the unelected individual who claims to be venezuela's leader kind of flies in the face of his claim that the united states won't be using force now if there was one loophole you could say in anthony blinken remarks he did create a pretext in which the united states would be continuing to use force against governments of course we will never hesitate to use force when american lives and vital interests are at stake now what exactly would constitute such a threat he did not lay out any specific criteria so it seems that though the united states through its new secretary of state is announcing that no more force will be used many wonder if this will simply be a changing of red. rick it looks like the united states will most likely be
5:16 am
continuing its foreign policy activities but only time will tell did leave that huge loophole where he said vital interests vital interests can mean almost anything mars the moon you name it it could be a vital interest to america if a politician wants to say that's the case it seems like rhetoric you know trump certainly had his own style that was very bombastic and out there and other presidents have been more reserved in their or in their description of activities but when you look at the actual policies we've seen no change and i think it sounds like rhetoric not something that we can count on yet you know president started a trade war with china and now president biden's talking about well we're going to cooperate with other countries but we're also going to have trade agreements that protect our workers and do this and that which in the end probably means the exact same policies as a national trade war biden i see him rebranding
5:17 am
a lot of the same old thing. so to kill this us social media platforms continue their crusade against donald trump with now taking down his 1st major post-presidential spain's bring you details after the break.
5:18 am
so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race. and spearing dramatic development only mostly exists i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. welcome back it was his 1st major comeback speech since leaving the white house but just hours after donald trump a taken to the stage the former u.s. president fell foul of you cheap sensis the platform deleted his speech on a number of news organizations science think. a science in
5:19 am
a lack of content warnings take his probably can. so donald trump was back giving his big return speech at the impact 2021 that's the conservative political action conference for the uninitiated and it attracts a break through walls but. i would show you some more of the highlights but it's not that easy because they are i would like you to be able to watch my video on you tube which is hard to say at censoring the 45th president but nobody likes live ok let's try and get one more quick clip in content warning this video contains an orange man saying things which may not be 100 percent correct and worship or do restraint.
5:20 am
you see our t.v.'s dream to thomas return live on and convert free to say whatever he wants in the tradition of freedom of speech only for you tube to take it down and threaten our t.v. with a content strike and deletion from the platform for violating its spam deceptive practices and spams policy hey you tube if you're going to delete every videos for scams and deceptive practices you know basically going to be left with one video this one. you tube responded to queries by saying more details aren't explanatory information must be provided essentially you to pate the fact that trump still uses every opportunity to claim that he didn't lose the election but what's interesting about you tube's policy is that the censors 1st port of call was r.t.
5:21 am
r t s german channel and another russian channel called sputnik it took our. before they got to the likes of reuters and the associated press and even then i bet they weren't threatened with removal from the platform so the folly is clear because for example i can still watch the trump video on the independence youtube channel actually as you know they just morse the word house is one of them which is our environment so watch out there while you still can but social media platforms which are always trying to get out of trouble by saying that they are publishers they just provide an outlet are openly censoring political content and deleting access to a former president who despite what any of us may say was democratically elected by millions of people. and they're targeting russian channels
5:22 am
specifically allowing people to speak freely and that's all getting all the news outlets are simply reporting the news and yet i can still watch things like this. it's political censorship that's all it is. legal a media analyst lionel has concerns that you tube actively trying to silence political opponents. google and you tube and other other platforms like this are of such in the main nature had there almost like utilities today imagine if you're on the phone almost and your phone drops because you dared mention hydroxy chloroquine or said something in favor of donald trump you wouldn't have it and if the utility said well maybe you should start your own phone company was a that's ridiculous so it's time for us to recalibrate and redefine what these platforms are they're not they're not the union platform this is you tube this is
5:23 am
international it's more than that and these distinctions have to change and what it is is these agencies these platforms are if you will agencies or instruments of whatever the shadow government the ruling class the deep state i don't know but you're being used as clenching devices to punish people to get in line and people love these platforms so much that they will not talk about or think about anything in fear of losing their beloved you tube were facebook or whatever actually know exactly what they're doing. the international criminal court has lost a probe into alleged war crimes by israel in palestine this includes the 2014 gaza war one of the deadliest conflicts between the 2 sides. the decision to open an investigation full of the painstaking preliminary examination undertaken by the office that lasted close to 5 years our central concern must be for the victims of
5:24 am
crimes both palestinian and israeli arising from the long cycle of violence and insecurity that has caused deep suffering and despair on all sides kwaku. in february the i.c.c. concluded it had jurisdiction over alleged war crimes committed by israel on palestinian territories meaning israeli soldiers and politicians could find
5:25 am
themselves being prosecuted by listing is a welcome the decision saying it's a victory for the victims of the conflict this was prime minister benjamin netanyahu slammed the move and labelled it under limited anti semitism and the height of hypocrisy i call again unable discuss the investigation with naftali bennett israel's former defense minister and current candidate for prime minister. this is a perversion of justice of any basic morals you know when one side or another the 2nd side has a right to self-defense the court is not a court you know they call it the i.c.c. i view it the international circus of clowns let me tell you something you know i thought in quite a few wars defending my family come us shoots rockets at israelis from within hospitals within homes within schools and then when we want to fight back then this i.c.c. thing tells us that we're immoral and then if you are saying that the militants
5:26 am
were based in hospitals on schools but by firing bach were actually schools and nurses and doctors where working civilians were killed there's very much a sense of proportionality to be to be held here isn't there an israel did not. is there you know if if someone is shooting your kids your kids from within a school how proportional are you going to react well there's a sense of self defense of course i agree with but in terms of doing that do you not prolong the war on the victims in israel as well as palestine making it even worse for future generations surely there's a stage where you have to say listen we're going to go off to these people but we're not going to try to kill as many civilians as we did before oh no you're distorting things we never are out to kill civilians. being killed haven't they oh they've been killed by their own government hamas which places rockets next to their children so yes let me but you know if your rep and ever places rockets from
5:27 am
within civilians he is murdering his own people not israel there's an evil side that is an attack in there's a good side that's defending and the only side that holds any responsibility is the offender let me be very clear you know if there is a list of people who are going to the hog i'm going to be at the top of the list we will never the hands of an israeli soldier while defending itself. that say you are right up to date don't forget though if you're hungry for more news you can find plenty on our website at www dot com. during the vietnam war u.s. forces also bomb to neighboring laos it was a secret war. and for years the american people did not know. how much it is officially mouth heavily bombed country per capita. human history millions of
5:28 am
unexploded bombs still in danger lives in this small agricultural country jordyn wieber went on a kind of attack that they even today kids in laos full victims of bombs dropped decades ago is the u.s. making amends for that tragedy and what help to the people need in that little land of mines. the world is driven by shaped by. the dares thinks. we dare to ask.
5:29 am
there are tactics that can be used to get innocent people to confess to crimes they didn't commit i don't even think people in the us really get that the police are allowed to lie to you the person who falsely fast actually came to believe the lie that they were told about their own behavior once a false confession is taken the case is closed and nobody really can tell the difference between a good confession and one that isn't. oh oh oh love love love. love love all kids on the only. media attention to the wolf it is how long it is how are you shouldn't we can you
