the headlines this 22nd of march is all tomato and then the e.u. chief her serve under law and lays down a final warning to astra zeneca that it could block covert jail their exports and britain is not happy. hungary's foreign minister tells r.t. he questions brussels handling of the corona virus vaccine program and just blocks medicines watchdog to approve russia's sputnik the shock. of the centralized procurement procedure managed by brussels has failed because regardless of the promise of years of the expectations there are much less vaccines arriving. this morning turkey is cis its laws offer enough protection as

international condemnation grows again as to pull out the global treaty combating violence against women. from moscow this monday morning is kevin owen here for the next half an hour with the latest from us for you starting with this than the u.k. crisis over covert vaccine deliveries is deepening this monday brussels has now doubled down on threats to shot exports over chronic delays in distribution amid failing inoculation campaigns. we have the possibility to ban planned exports this is a message to astra zeneca you fulfill your part of the deal towards euro before you start to deliver to other countries. showed no signs of are going to time soon if i was getting worse. that's exactly how it

seems with the e.u. and the u.k. on course for another collision again over vaccine something that we've seen to and fro now for the last few months this could see the threat of millions of doses of vaccine such as astra zeneca and pfizer biotech which are produced here in the e.u. being blocked from being sent to the u.k. unless astra zeneca ships more of its vaccines produced in the u.k. to europe now as you can imagine the u.k. ministers of the wrist are incensed about this possible threat but they've also on this occasion got the backing of the opposition party labor who've called for calm from the e.u. . i would do in the european commission to calm down the language cool the rhetoric and let's try and walk together to get through this crisis.

pfizer bonet tech vaccines are also part of that threat and a lot that wouldn't go to the u.k. are also calling for calm and of warning that this could backfire back on the e.u. and that's because many of the ingredients it uses in its vaccines are produced in the u.k. and it's concerned that if the blocks vaccines from going to the u.k. could retaliate by stopping the delivery of those ingredients or the need to included important liquids now the most bizarre thing possibly about this is the fact that it's astra zeneca astra zeneca is a vaccine that has not been well received here in europe there have been continued . questions over whether it's. a high efficacy against 19 there have been these safety concerns over the last week and despite the fact that european medicals agency actually rubber stamped it again last week saying it was safe and effective and that the positives outweigh the negatives of this

vaccine many e.u. countries still haven't lifted the suspension of using it and the double checking those figures itself i mean there really is a high amount of mistrust here over the astra zeneca vaccine with many people turning up to appointments and saying i won't have the vaccine if it's that one some just not turning up at all and what's really interesting as well as lavon delay in big wigs are talking about threatening to block vaccines who are leaving the e.u. because they haven't received enough astra zeneca doses what they're not talking about is the huge stockpiles of astra zeneca that e.u. countries are sitting on and yet to be used now i want to talk about what the situation here is in france because actually this is a country where mistrust is very high a recent poll from the live shows that only 20 percent of people who were polled said that they had confidence in the astra zeneca job and the french government

which has reinstated the program using astra zeneca has now said that it's only to be used for those over the age of $55.00 now that's interesting because it's a pretty big u. turn from the advice at the very start of the campaign which was what that the astra zeneca vaccine was only quasi effective and shouldn't be used for those in old age groups and it's that conflicting advice that you turn of advice like that that some experts say is undermining confidence in vaccines. it doesn't make any sense the whole thing looks completely crackers they're changing the rules almost every week they're really damaging people's confidence in vaccines generally they're sitting on a massive stockpile of vaccines that they haven't deployed yet and at the same time they've got a massive wave of the new variants coming across the country you could make it up. and there's possibly a question of how much of this is the new trying to deflect attention from how poor

it itself is admitted its handling of this crisis has been let's not forget that following breaks it the you invited the u.k. to be part of its joint procurement scheme when it came to vaccines the u.k. said no thank you we'll do it our own way and as a result of that it is now speeding ahead with its own vaccination program the latest figures show that 51 percent of adults in the u.k. have received at least one job compare that to around 10 percent overall here in europe i mean the figures speak for themselves and now it does seem as if the e.u. is having a bit of a tantrum and it's ready to throw the baby out with the bath water charlotte. out of a hole in. story now hungary's top diplomats called on the european medicines agency to approve russia's. interview with r.t. the foreign minister also explain why the job is failing as lots of.

thank. you i've seen is not a question of ideology for us it is a matter of saving lives and if we had not contracted the chinese under and russian the vaccine have saved the health care added health and the lives of many hungry aryans the hungry a national regulator has approved the emergency use authorization for use so i have no concern of i was the one that asked by our government to negotiate with the russian federation about her chasing. after long syria's open negotiations and we were able to sign our contract which. a lot in accelerating the vaccination in hungary. there are 2 ways you know europe according to the european regulations how a vaccine going to get approval one day is definitely truly an 8 european medicines

agency through a l.s.e. organ the rehab procedure but you don't feel the regulations also say there's another way in case of emergency and that these other way should be completed by the national regulators would use for the emergency even. so the fact that the hungary a national regulator has issue of emergency use or for a authorization is nothing you know against their regulations and and that's what made us a little bit fed up you know that the way hungary has approved. it was going to do dirty in the west and borrow your opening global media as if we had made something against their your paret your actions which is which is not true you wrote the regulations say very clearly that in a case of emergency you can make such an. icon give you an explanation why e.m.e.a. is so slow of course of course i mean bureaucratic. explanations can be even

anytime they can say that they date back more documentation based by the russian look on their part to do the standard but i don't know what i see is what i see is that there are vaccines which are used by millions and millions of people believe russian or chinese but there are these are not authorized here or even in euros you know once again your a graphic explanations can be easily given in the fine but not this is not of other reference if you says about the lives of the people but more x. and you have done more people you can say but i think very simple at least to speak about for sure. the decentralized procurement procedure managed by brussels has failed as fairly close regardless of the promises and the expectations there are much less vaccines arriving and much are slower compared to. before

while it became obvious that these shipments were managed and coronated by brussels are not satisfactory we've arrived there at that end by the same people by the same bureaucrats by the same politicized why we want to buy additional vaccines for our own people or our own people and i think this is a this is a matter of obligation of a state of the government to protect the lives of its own people. turkey has pulled out of an international treaty combating violence against women at the council of europe cold a decision devastating. this move is a huge setback and all the more deplorable of course it compromises the protection of women in turkey across europe and beyond hundreds flooded on to the streets of istanbul against turkey's move than holding banners calling on the government to stay in the treaty the landmark world convention was proposed in 2011 to prevent

domestic violence and to promote gender equality but turkey says in its view it undermines family values and as a pro l g b t agenda agreements been ratified by 33 nations ankara further insists its existing laws already fully protect women we discuss the decision with turkish experts that . what looks good on pinker may not always be good you know reality after turkey scientists go has been there also came about a lot that is still in place by so. the practice of the slow the practices that came about after that caused an uproar in public my being slandered take taken away from their home and from their kids without showing any evidence of violence by the way and also the rise of the l.g.b. to discourse in jerky because as you know mention brings about 7 square

lets a car that forces the sexual orientation to be a legitimate submission and all the connotations that come with it and also defines the word honor as a sock also now now now for one i am against anyone and. in the name of such as was in other killings but if you negate the importance of the well you know you were under that i cannot accept that because honor as a word is it's not also marriage as an institution is important for jerks there are some you reconcile bill this lets with. people's understanding of their male life and the way that this quote rational person father thought the point is the contract has never been implemented. even if it's like

who didn't know they know what the contract. did they even read it one i don't think so love how much it can pay based on life was how it gave the contract gamble conversation in your mess and that. they wish you the flow than maybe my little fellow we and there we were in play and nobody. in this back night could i be sure know where you especially the funk that has nothing to do we could ideational wait he is basically only about gender equity and about man mom i know again re when he as i individual the point is they all how they all or i look to the whole whole range. because they are against gender.

threat and interference in germany there be sickly asking the us to enforce sanctions thus turning themselves into lobbyists for dirty inexpensive us fracking gas which is not green at all germany's green party has been setting out their election promises ahead of this year's national vote scrapping the nord stream 2 gas pipeline is being given top billing the north stream to pipeline project has not only climate and the do implications but also causes damage on the geo political level especially given the situation in ukraine and therefore it should be stopped but the greens stance puts them in lock step with the biden administration in washington secretary of state antony blinken has also just announced that the infrastructure project should be stopped and that business is involved in the pipeline could face sanctions any entity involved in the north stream to pipeline risks u.s. sanctions and should immediately abundant work on the pipeline costing just over

9000000000 euros north stream 2 is already more than 95 percent complete it will allow russian gas to flow directly into germany under the baltic sea and could be used to bypass existing pipelines which take gas through ukraine which would cost kiev valuable transit fees the pipeline is seen by some politicians as the only way for germany to get the energy it needs while facilitating the move away from nuclear and coal. we are the only highly industrialized country which at the same time wants to get rid of nuclear energy and co of those who use a huge amount of nuclear energy such as mike rann have an easier task to replace fossil fuels this is a bold move from the greens it puts at risk a potential coalition between themselves and the conservative union which had been widely talked up ahead of september's forte christian democratic union leader arm english remains on track to the angle of merkel successor chancellor that despite

strong gains by the greens on the corruption scandal over m.p.'s earning extra money through lobbying taking its toll on his party in polling he is regarded as an economic pragmatist when it comes to the pipeline and the gas it would provide the conservatives are the only ones willing to finish the project not to carry or for the future of western europe's energy. and gerry's industrial relations secure energy that only not too can supply the british claimed that ukraine will be just back to its little that it will and surely should have trade interests. the german government should 1st of all look to the interests of the united states even with the un ministration is still

threatening sanctions on germany harmonies and individuals and this is something that show us our nation cannot act and the huge arab government will certainly have to deal with many issues regarding energy regarding our well not spiritual arre have its construction and begin operations by the tide and huge own government case the charge running with such a big foreign and economic policy front and center is a big gamble from the green. it suggests that they think that they could win the election in september because if they don't and they were to enter into a coalition government with the conservatives as the junior partner well that could well require a large policy climbdown peter all of our arty berlin. a military genius or a mass murderer will france plans to mark the 200 year anniversary of napoleon's death and it's split opinion with a little room for nuance

a new york times article claims he's no hero but a political commentator argues the newspapers is jumping on the progressive bandwagon over it. as a black woman of haitian descent and a scholar of french colonial ism i find it particularly galling to see that france plans to celebrate the man who restored slavery to the french caribbean an architect of modern genocide his troops created gas chambers to kill my ancestors new york times has become a propaganda instrument of a certain strain of work a scholarship in which you go hunt people to oppose and to insult i mean what's going on this thing called critical race theory which is really dangerous 1st of all you teach a simplified caricature of history that does not reflect anything as complex that what happened and then when people have no memory and no culture you can practically tell them anything did napoleon reestablish slavery in haiti he didn't

he began not to when the british left guadalupe there was slavery in world loop and they made representations in saying that they were not interested in being french and then slavery were established which probably is not a good thing i'm not going to sort of take sides on this when slavery is a bad thing it was abolished forever in france in 845 it was only abolished in america 865 it was abolished in russia uneaten 60 we're not the last well critics of france's former leader slam his brutal military campaigns across europe and asia but supporters say he's also boosted social institutions and streamline the french legal system. again says those angry at the polling a big 2 selective in her view. the whole point is to criticize a certain type of colonialist if you take the ottoman empire if you take which which is the longest acting colonial powers more than half a 1000000 euro and who were quite ferocious against our populations and who

practiced slavery nobody talks about that they will only talk about a certain type of western europeans because they've decided that they were everything that is illegal what amazes me is of course like every every spat started in the media it goes on twitter not only were people supporting me in france which i expected i did russian friends of mine came to my support spaniards who said yes to he you know he brought in bad things to welcome my country but he still was a rich fascinating leader germans because napoleon swept away medieval rulings that was incredibly restrictive 'd in germany and he imposed the couldna pretty all which was much more modern with freedom to work freedom trade also said things that did not exist so i suspect that the entire publics except the few who are sort of fashionable people at the new york times would be very happy. spies hollywood star murder plot some polluted well now british tabloid combine some outlandish claims

shoves him in the trunk and drives down the route with a rush of this way science about who is a plan to try and kidnap him 1st by knocking him out and then injecting him with a special drug so one god they plowed on kidnapping shoving him in a car trunk driving him to russia and killing him there why is anyone's guess another by knocking him out injecting him with stuff also smuggling him to russia before killing him another by using no veto and so on if there are any problems they'll torture him to death somewhere in a remote forest in order asli reads like cringeworthy screenplay 101 a staggeringly creative yet astonishingly stupid ways to kill people all 102 sorry as for nivelle me they're going to crush him using the convicts they'll break

him and drive him to hang himself and any rate their orders to make the patient break shut up and stay silent they're going to do everything break his mind is psychologically tortured him or as another alternative the patient might suddenly contract a quickly progressing form of coded all. of this they managed to fit on a single a 4 piece of paper now anyone who knows russian will look at this and they're going to laugh it's really that stupid but if you're english language media you could just pick out and translate the quotes the duende give away how stupid it all is and view is an f. none the wiser with an all minutes redacted a full piece of paper written in scary russian in all menace typewriter fog to boot perfect of some more trotty propaganda and the all of the the authors make no secret of what they want they long for any potential sanctions it's well known that

no country is brave enough to sanction verne's in a circle all his pocket only go so every single one of the people that are on this list have recently called for sanctions against russia out of nowhere they get this badly written letter the details are a comically stupid plan to kidnap a bunch of people and then kill them all through ha ha we laugh at you with sanctions you are too chicken to sanction russia. jokes aside it's a sad state of affairs that we even have to cover this if you want to find out what else we're talking about today check out the verse socials rotty dot com but for now that's it this monday in moscow whatever you're doing today have a great one for me kevin in the signing off for the time being back in just over 30 minutes with.
