a pull out from a global treaty combating violence against women. global headlines live from moscow welcome to your stories on r.t. international. the u.k. crisis. is deepening brussels has now doubled down on threats to. distribution amid a failing inoculation campaign. we have the possibility to ban planned exports this is a message to astra zeneca you fulfill your part of the deal towards europe before you start to deliver to other countries it seems that the e.u. could be holding back all the millions of vaccines that are due to be transported to the u.k. in the next 3 weeks if it takes that decision to suspend the next to be

ok now the move has incensed u.k. government ministers as you can imagine but also opposition party the labor party standing by u.k. government on this particular point calling for calm from the new i would urge the european commission to calm down the language cool the rhetoric and that's try and work together to get through this crisis. what seems most bizarre is the fact that this is a astra zeneca jobs coming to the e.u. or not enough and that's because there is a huge amount of mistrust in this particular vaccine just for example here in france it's so high that only 20 percent of people say that they have faith in that job and as we know over the last week 19 european countries decide this to suspend astra zeneca over fears of safety in regards to blood clots and despite the fact that the european medical satan see as once again rubber stamped it that's not good enough for some e.u. countries who are still holding back and while. big wigs are talking about the idea

of not getting enough astra zeneca day to stay here what they're not talking about is how many doses european countries are just sitting on millions and millions of doses that have yet to be used here now i also want to talk about what's happening in france because astra zeneca has been restarted as a campaign again but this new advice from the french health authorities here which means it can now only be used for over 50 five's completely different advice to what we had just a few weeks ago where president machen was saying that it was quasi effective for all their age groups and that some u.k. experts is causing a problem in undermining confidence 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 there's also a question about how much of this row is about the e.u. trying to deflect attention from how poorly it's handled this crisis something it itself has admitted and of course let's not forget one of the u.k. was and. to join joint pretty with the e.u. despite breaks it the e.u. politely declined and said we're going to do it our own way and as a result of that they speeding ahead with their vaccination program just to put that into context 51 percent of all adults in the u.k. have received at least one dose of a vaccine compare that to around 10 percent here across the e.u. as a whole and the fake is really sort of paint a picture of how starkly different the campaigns are and some might say that this is now the e.u. throwing a bit of a tantrum and it's ready to throw the baby out with the bathwater. hungary's top

diplomat has called on the european medicines agency to approve russia's sputnik after he got the shot the country's joint slovakia in already deploying the short term and rolling out western alternatives italy has also announced a deal to make it and in an interview with r.t. hungary's foreign minister also explained why the e.u. vaccine distribution system is in his view failing. vaccine is not a question of ideology for us it is a matter of saving lives and if we had not contracted the chinese and and russia on the vaccine have saved the healthcare 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 i haue a lot in accelerating the vaccination in hungary. there are 2 ways you know europe according to the european regulations how a vaccine gonna get approval one thing is definitely true e.m.a.p. rokia medicines agency through a let's see we're going to reach out procedure but you don't get the regulations also say there's another way in case of emergency and these other they should be completed by the national regulators would use for the emergency even. so the fact that the hungary a national regulator has issue with emergency use or fraud offer a zation 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 this we knew it was going to do dirty in the western part of your opening global media as if we had made something against the you're going to regulate which is which is not true you wrote your regulations say very clearly that in a case of emergency you've got to make such an. icon give you an explanation why e.m.e.a. is so slow of course of course i mean bureaucratic out. explanations can be even any time they can see day to day expect more documentation and they expect 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 in the world which are used by millions and millions of people believed russian or chinese but are these are not authorized here or even in euros you know once again you regret the explanations can be easily given and you find but not this is not about the reference you says about the lives of the people but more wrecks 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 fair because regardless of the promises or the expectations there are much less vaccines arriving and much lower compared to. before why it became obvious that these shipments. managed on fluorinated by brussels are not satisfactory weaver and there at that and by the same people by the same bureaucrats by the same politicians 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 over state of the government to protect the lives of its own people. protesters have hit the streets of turkey after pulled out of

a major international treaty combating violence against women thousands of demonstrators flooded istanbul over the weekend holding banners demanding the government's stay in the tree of global rights groups mourn the withdrawal will bring more violence against women the european union has called on turkey to reverse its decision after the council of europe branded the pull out devastating. this move is if he said back and all the more deplorable the course that compromises the protection of women in turkey across europe and beyond. well the world convention was proposed in 2011 to prevent domestic violence and promote gender equality however turkey says it undermines family values and has a pro. agenda he has been ratified by 33 nations will anchor insists its existing laws already fully protect women we discussed the

decision with various bits. well it looks good on pink or may not always be good you know reality the convention brings a. quite radical practice. to call from my loins but this additional violence is quite and this contract has never implemented. it remained on pay for the contract has been in effect since 2 anti the no life. contract is low and according to our constitution marriage as an institution is important for jerks and someone is seeing this. as a whole and slaving and also the rise of the 2 destroyers injured because as you know who mentioned brings about salmon in square let's call that forces the

sexual orientation to be a legitimate submission and connotations that come with it in place and nobody this fact night traditional when you play surely the contract has nothing to do we could add issue no way to you basically it's only about gender actually and about man now my little again we were. i individuals the fact is that came about with the holes in our income that man being slandered taken away. from their kids don't show me any evidence of violence by white boys did the contract has never been implemented last summer. they only lie. out against the contract. conversation in

your left at that time. i wish you the player than made a violent appointee or how they all are part time to go forward hoeing. because they are a game. germany's greens have been criticized over their calls to scrap the nord stream to gas pipeline the party was a major winner in this month's regional elections and has now claimed the project woulda damaged the country's international standing but a member of the ruling christian democratic union told us diversity of supply is key in more or less an arm of the us internationalist elite. they've been there done that for a while they are more or less completely. following the us strategy and they are not looking after germany the party that have in their mind of the program

basically to abolish germany and you can see that on all fronts and so they point towards ukraine and we should look for german interests 1st we should look for european interests 1st and it's very worthwhile and good for europe and for germany to diversify its energy sources and not to be dependent on one direction because if you're dependent on one direction almost looks like mafia tactics you take away the the the activity and then you provide the stuff yourself and of course it's good for germany to have energy sources from russia directly and from the west and from wherever but not from one direction please or the greens claim in the north trying to gas pipeline would hurt the country's climate and renewable energy commitments as well as its international standing a correspondent peter on a file that this report from berlin. germany's green party have been setting out their election promises ahead of this year's national vote scrapping the nord

stream to gas pipeline is being given top billing 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 businesses involved in the pipeline could face sanctions any entity involved in the north stream to pipeline risks u.s. sanctions and should immediately abandon work on the pipeline costing just over $9000000000.00 euros nord 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 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 in kovel 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 vaught christian democratic union leader remains on track to be angular merkle successor chancellor that's 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. the greens always have a special position visibly russian state of rejecting the shameless u.s.

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. there and to transition is important to protect the climate and group will be serious if we want to remain competitive if we want to secure john in his industry status and if we want to secure perspire easy for everyone transitions acknowledged been place running with such a big foreign and economic policy front and center is a big gamble from the greens 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 concert serves as the junior partner well that could well require a large policy climbdown peter all of our r.t. . are still to come here on your monday programme on arts he almost 2 dozen

officers are injured by rioters pro. testing a british bill to expand law enforcement powers we'll hear more of the story from our correspondent in just a moment. the great recession. in which the need is real liberalism. truly truly people have any say in any. legs.

good of you to join us today authorities have blasted what they call a mob of animals who damaged property torched police vans and injured 20 officers in u.k. riots against a rather controversial bill to expand police powers. all

right crossing live now to our correspondent on location can you bring us up to speed what is the latest situation where you are. well essentially what we see over the weekend is a number of protests there in the southwest and since you are still in a glen then it's in response to a bill and a government bill a law being passed called the police crimes sentencing in courts bill and essentially there have been many concerns that this is someone of the age of coney and piece of legislation that it gives police and authorities far more powers it gives them powers for example over how protests can be held them so in the light of

everything that's been going on we've been seeing controversial scenes of police cracking down on women protesting against the anti women violence and so for those reasons and the protests there in bristol was held by people sensibly to protest against that legislation to try to protest for the right to protest but it quickly descended into violent scenes dozens of officers receiving injuries there were 2 or so one offside his ribs broken another one had his arm broken in a police station there close to the center of the city was set on fire or was had windows destroyed and because police vehicles were set on fire during the course of that of course police have made arrests during the scene things are calm today but it will be a shock to the system for many in the police but also of course it will probably lead to an even bigger crackdown against some of those protesters many of whom weren't wearing masks and were easily identifiable so there will be some

consequences and as we've already heard from the home secretary pretty to tell saying that. there will be some type of response liable for a tease but that still doesn't take away from some of the concerns that have been around that legislation of the. into early play here. a genius leader or a mass murderer francis plans to mark the 200th anniversary of napoleon bonaparte to death have split opinion the new york times launching an attack on the former emperor as a black woman of haitian descent and a scholar of french colonialism 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.

critics blast napoleon's brutal military campaigns across europe and asia but many have sprung to his defense insisting he boosted social institutions and laid the foundations of today's legal system and one top political commentator says the attacks are too selective. as the new york times and as we know the new york times has become a propaganda instrument of a certain strain of wookey scholarship in which you go hunt people to oppose and to insult 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 any 160 we're not the last there's no reason it's no reason to essentially start criticizing the protean because you have it in for france in general which is what the new york times has had consistently the last few years the new york times article comes a bit wider assault on historical figures now considered progressive but elizabeth

moved again says that simply ignoring the facts what's going on this thing called critical race theory which is really dangerous is 1st of all you teach a simplified caricatural of history that does not reflect anything as complex of what happened and then when people have no memory and no culture you can practically tell them anything that the whole point is to criticize a certain type of colonialist if you take the ultimate empire if you to which which is the longest. serving i mean longest acting colonial power it's more than half a 1000000 euro and who are 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. spies hollywood style murder plots and put in a british tabloid combine some outlandish claims as hysteria mounds following joe

biden's labeling of the russian president as a quote killer is our correspondent would have guessed. could vladimir putin be planning a duster glee yet cartoonish killing spree against his critics abroad he could according to this a full piece of paper written in typewriter font to apparently make it more all minnes typewriter and cartoonish because it is apparently written by an idiot with a poncho and for more movies bad more movies we have orders to whack the mole so don is out of his mind with rage and his instructions being enacted we have long arms this vermin won't be able to hide from us according to the legend this letter was written by a spook a russian f.s.b. agent to develop the conscious and decided to warn putin's critics that von is

coming after them so hoover is assured in deering terms for vladimir move on is st slag for vladimir because if the all menace typewriter script didn't convince you that this was real move on lucia street slang definitely will. as for volkov the naive nincompoop thinks he's safe he could be kidnapped and transported to russia or is luggage over the nincompoop so the author pretends he's from the earth as be the federal security service part of their responsibilities god russia's borders you would think that in f.s.b. agent would knew how border checkpoints work it so happens that when you drive out of the european union they actually check your trunk it would also raise a lot of questions and someone walked up to this high for this medium profile putin critic who is guarded by european intelligence agencies knocks him over the head

shoves him in the trunk and drives down the route with a rush of this way science about this 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 it all asli reads like cringeworthy screenplay 101 a stab really creative yet astonishingly stupid ways to kill people or 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 theat 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 can 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 ominous redacted a 4 piece of paper written in scary russian in all menace typewriter fall to boot perfect with some more trotty propaganda and the alters 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 vns in a circle all his pocket only go so every single one of the people that are on the slease 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 love 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. well there are some your top headlines for this monday here an international hope you can join us in half an hour's time we return varies.

americans. this was a fundamental part of how our political leadership and our country at large understood the bargain you get a hope and then you know rebel right as the things you don't revolt if you have a stake in the system. and think about the longer deeper history. in the united states not just that question of the american dream but the bigger question of who the dream is for.
