ministration does not seem to be anxious to let the public know what is really going on we recently saw republican u.s. senator ted cruz visiting a facility only to have officials from the immigration and customs enforcement blocking his view and preventing him from taking a photograph this is what happened when ted cruz visited a detention facility for migrants you were hired 2 weeks ago and you're instructed to ask us to not have any pictures taken these respected because the political leadership of the dia just does not want the american people to know even that they were here standing in the in front of the pictures so you know that people are thinking the rules are arbitrary and there's i do believe that if people i really respect them and i want to fix this situation we are going to get an illustration you're one of the $400.00 responsible for these conditions now at this point the biden ministration continues to say what it is said all along which is that it is committed to transparency however when the time comes to actually let that transparency happen we have some pretty strong excuses coming from jen psaki of the
4:03 pm
white house spokesperson here's what we've heard we are mindful of the fact that we are in the middle of a pandemic we want to keep these kids safe keep the staff safe but we are absolutely committed to transparency and providing access to media to the border patrol facilities and we're working to get that done as soon as we can so this is being set up and you have access to everything once we get to see. it just to be clear how soon will that be mr president i don't know. to be clear. now at this point we've got some voices that seem to be determined not to portray what's happening on the border as a crisis this is a memo from the associated press about how to describe the situation we should avoid or at the least be highly cautious about referring to the present situation as a crisis on a road although we might quote of his using that language. well the associated press says it may not actually fit the dictionary definition of a crisis
4:04 pm
a recent poll taken among the u.s. public shows that 76 percent of americans believe the situation on the us border is indeed a crisis. a police body count video in the u.s. state of maryland house calls widespread outrage it shows officers restraining and hung cuffing a 5 year old boy who had allegedly left school without permission a warning some viewers may find the images disturbing. how did i thank you i don't i'm not asking to get in the car. i mean how do you learn that type of behavior at 5. 5 if you see. i was. and they know you can move you can be free you can go anywhere you do we tell you to do the incident happened in january last year both
4:05 pm
a month gomery county police department only released the video a few days ago school stuff partly call the police asking them to phone the boy after he walked out of the building at one point in the video an officer can be heard talking by the child saying quote i beat him so commenting on the case marlon police admitted to it was badly handled. it is clear that the event and everything that has come after the event should have been handled better by all involved it is important to note that unless an officers assigned to a specialized unit but gummer county police officers did not receive training on how to effectively communicate with a young child in distress well a boy's mother has filed a lawsuit against the officers both of them remain employed with the department's pending internal investigation though we heard from youth rights campaigner every smedley she thinks there is no justification for the officer's behavior i was
4:06 pm
moshav by how aggressive they were from the very outset i honestly think they need to be fired there's just no reason they should be acting this towards a 5 year old and it makes you wonder how they treat other members of the community i'm not sure what process you need to happen to have that belief public so i assume it was some legal issue but i i just can't understand why the investigation why the release of the video to someone and i just want to know what makes you approach a 5 year old in that way because it's inexcusable what makes you approach a 5 year old that way he is 5 he needed to be approached with compassion and of course he was horrified in screaming from the outset because that's what bared leading that tell me that's a to understanding why am i screaming at him and man handling him so i just can't justify it that's what i that's what i would ask them how do you possibly justify this. 100 percent effective producing code on people these which
4:07 pm
fight off all strains that is what developers of russia's epi corona vaccine of annoyance to it is one of 3 domestically produced jobs now in circulation r.t. was invited to visit the high security aboard a train siberia where epatha corona is made. this sign is probably worth a 1000 words because we are in one of the few places in the world where it has been plastered against the door not for cool looks not for show but as an actual warning behind this door is one of the world's 2 largest virus collections some of them so deadly they make covert 19 look like an allergy and this door has been put in case of an emergency evacuation and luckily it has never been used for its purpose we are at the vector research institute met here with armed guards barbed wire and the no fly zone above us inviting journalists is worlds apart from common practice here
4:08 pm
but they're eager to show and talk about how with their jab corona is made so this machine is where the work on the vaccine begins basically an inactivated virus from the red zone from the dirty zone is brought here and this machine it separates the r.n.a. from the rest of the virus it isolates it and from here the r.n.a. is being passed on for further study and work russia boasts 3 different covert 1000 vaccines sputnik v. is already a brand eclipsing p.r. wise even its international competitors vectors vaca role now has remained in its elder brother's shadow even in russia few people know how it works or what we do but i want to emphasize 3 major advantages of the vaccine it's because it's made from synthetic peptides 2nd it's not sensitive to virus mutations it's resistant to
4:09 pm
all known covert strains including british south african brazilian and others and 3rd you can get vaccinated unlimited times one with the yearly flu vaccinations. then but the vaccine develops a 3 line to fans like to enter a room you need to open a door the vaccine forms antibodies that prevent that if the fast line of defense is broken and not the pull of antibodies goes into battle that stops the virus from connecting to the cell and getting inside but if this line is crossed is while the new response destroys the infected cell so this is the preferred vinyls stage of producing a vaccine basically here they are preparing a foundation for it it's probably in base so the substance in this boiler is literally called all world war it contains all the nutrients that will make this protein grow and as soon as it is ready will be taken to a different lab also here where active components of the vaccine will be attached
4:10 pm
to this protein in the foundation by active i mean those that will be recognized by our immune system as well include is and therefore we will develop antibodies for covert 19 it's hard to find a volunteer in russia who'd want to be very covert jab partly because so little is known about it partly because the 1st batches have just been released to the public and partly because its efficacy has been challenged by skeptics and even those who took part in the clinical trials the had developed of the vaccine says though this is a smear campaign against the institute i think it's purely an information war against this vaccine in particular it's very frustrating i feel sorry for my country and the vaccine officials are telling me they won't be dragged into bickering and will verify their reputation via publications in science journals several high profile russian officials have already chosen r.p.
4:11 pm
back as their covert job and there were rumors of russia's former president dmitry medvedev did so as well but the difficulty head of the vector institute says vaccinate. it shouldn't be a free for all fights between different producers people get through jobs they don't ask how those vaccines are made or how they walk but all of them meet certain requirements it should be the same with coronavirus vaccines a passenger gets a job and that's it the message from russian vaccine developers which ever jab you choose you are getting the best shot at him unity. reporting from the heart of siberia r.t. . or anything with the theme of russian vaccines want to tell him businessmen has made a 6000 kilometer round trip to receive. group rather than the only food. to get inoculated with sputnik 3 because he wasn't willing to wait months to receive a shot back or. only people of my age are scared to be versus needed
4:12 pm
after the sun at a store or the fire i decide to make initially i. think is absolutely. even if sport to me because not only could have been a but all the wrong. quite clear that it's a very very good in many counties using that. didn't receive any call. for more than 2 weeks. of a solution. to be worse than it is in a rush most of the balls thrown on facebook which is from a friend. with one of those for me. and some friends ask if we. give you something. because you know there isn't
4:13 pm
must be between them that amount of i think between 5 or so and if you suffer those that. the italian engineer was able to get a travel visa thanks to his russian wife and ses his main motive for getting inoculated was to protect his elderly parents made his trip a 3rd coronavirus wave sweeps across europe on the block continues to experience vaccine shortages. well indeed new dealy coronavirus cases in italy have reached almost 24000 the country has the 2nd highest death toll in europe with more than 107000 fatalities registered since the start of the outbreak in the sun and believes politics shouldn't be the priority when lives are at stake. more than when you're a warrior outsider you can see all. full of people which. you're one now dear to the heart of. the situation i see that all bars
4:14 pm
all bars. during the. food and all about santa claus and. some flowers. i think the only problem or split the piece that is put to me is maybe a ration the only one if pulled into would have been made that i don't know in california . it would be a really neat only to use it without any problem policy should be accepted the opposite let's buy and. be seen on the market where we can find it because we have to go around quickly to personate all our population and because all that are wise with us initial we will never see the end of the. policy should they care about of people this should be the priority and not sound geopolitical. i don't know even
4:15 pm
a relationship. which is now conditioning you know such important thing call chalmette for their county. sandra will fly back to moscow at the beginning of april to get his 2nd dose will be following his journey you updated. merkel has voiced her frustration over the way germany's local authorities are doing the pandemic the chancellor has threatened to resort to sweeping federal powers our europe correspondent peter oliver reports from berlin. well during this interview that the chancellor gave on sunday evening she looked particularly sick and tired of bumping heads with local leaders she described some of the leaders of germany states is being not free from allusions that they could actually negotiate with the covert 19 virus we are set to see some local
4:16 pm
restrictions put in place here in berlin this week on wednesday off from wednesday f f p 2 masks will be required there more heavy duty masks in shops and on public transport are also going to any more testing put in place particularly for things like getting a haircut but this all comes as tense of care doctors in germany is saying the country actually needs a nationwide tough 2 week lockdown and that's something that's being backed up by anger merkel's health minister yen spawn. if we look at the numbers we need another $10.00 to $14.00 days at least a properly driving down context and movement a look down if you want to call about what germany is currently hold at around the 20000 new cases of covert 19 a day mark the warning that's coming out is that that could rise during this 3rd wave that's going to towns on europe to as much as $100000.00 per day the indications clearly point to this was potentially being even worse than the 1st 2
4:17 pm
waves we must be prepared for a steep rise in the number of cases for more people to once again become seriously ill but hospitals will be overburdened and that more people will die again. if this continues on chicks we run the risk that our health care system will reach its breaking point in april when it comes to vaccinations the plan remains that all adults will be offered a job by the end of september that's a plan that looks particularly bishes right now when you take into account that not all of the over eighty's in germany have had one job yet when it comes to vaccinate . local leaders saying they want russia's sputnik very vaccine to get approval so that can be used in the fight against covert the approval of sputnik we must be decided as soon as possible i'm fighting for sputnik v. not just because it's been produced in russia i believe that we should buy all vaccines which are available it has nothing to do with party politics or
4:18 pm
a proximity to moscow i find west german ideological sensitivities on this question silly supply issues as well as investigations into the safety of vaccines of seeing the vaccination program in europe be delayed thoroughly slow t.n.t. backed on the e.u. commissioner in charge of the vaccine program has said that getting russian sputnik the vaccine online wouldn't be a magic bullet that would fix all of europe's problems if the vaccine is certified within weeks or months and the way is found to produce it in europe it will take at least 10 to 14 months before the 1st but as manufactured but it will not be response to our problems today or with vaccination levels not being as high as they are in other parts of the world europe is staring down the barrel of more lockdowns more restrictions on its citizens. muslim leaders in northern england are
4:19 pm
after a teacher showed cartoons of the prophet mohammad to his class while i'm saying is he sending an open letter to local m.p.'s and the prime minister asking them to intervene or risk becoming like friends. all we ask for is a bit of respect if one teacher can do it another teach can do it 5 years down the line and we do not want this to be the case meanwhile muslim activists are focusing their anger on bartley grammar school in west yorkshire a religious education teacher there or showed the church during a discussion on blasphemy he reportedly warned his pupils beforehand about the topic the teacher is now reportedly in hiding with his family after he was identified online he's been suspended and has apologized but some local muslims are insisting that the school fired him or some of his people solve launched the petition in his defense calling on the school to reinstate him the u.k.
4:20 pm
department for education has defended the teacher it is never acceptable to threaten or intimidate teachers we encourage dialogue between parents and schools when issues a marriage schools are free to include a full range of issues ideas and materials in their curriculum including where they're challenging a controversial subject in their legations to ensure political balance well the case has some alarming parallels with what happened to some real party a history teacher in paris he was beheaded by a terrorist after showing cartoons of the prophet muhammad to class last october. i'm not going to one of our competitors was murdered because he touched our competitor it was the victim of an islamist terror attack.
4:21 pm
or that's called live now to london where i'm delighted to be welcomed by morons our political and social commentator tim pair of policy from christian concerned you're both very welcome to the program title and more coming kickoff with you the a mom we call it a very true a parlor to france and he said that if this keeps happening in the u.k. quote we are not responsible for the actions of some individuals it's a pretty ominous statement and. yes these are difficult times this could be very easily turning into some kind of a powder keg and if you do not throw it matches into such things now the country and the rest of the world is recovering already from pandemics you know nerves are frayed however we've seen in france and in many european countries the
4:22 pm
rise of the far right we've seen some 2 tier civil rights system pushing against islam pushing against muslims marginalizing them and it's open season on muslims courage attack them on free speech places and people make themselves up to be free speech martyrs or somehow muslims become inflamed of their own 15 western values and all natural and used the death of the teachers tragic and it's condemned as it was apparently to try to put a wedge between conservative muslim values and the rest of civilized french what phrase they use lasix here which is meant to be their view through quality but it's fast. equal is far from that ok he's also being applauded though for coming down on islam isn't doesn't he as well absolutely. sure counter-accusations ok tim isn't this topic which is so politically charged just too significant for a teacher to take it upon himself to teach and offer his own views shouldn't have been through consultation with school authorities. well i think listen what's most
4:23 pm
alarming here is that the teacher has had to go into hiding with police protection because what he's done he's discussed opened a discussion about a cartoon and the why the subject of blasphemy he hasn't actually hurt anyone he hasn't actually even threatened any violence and yet there are very real threats of violence against him so much so that the police protect him and take his family his wife and his children into hiding i think that is very very concerning this is not the way a free society should work he should definitely be defended all he's done is raise a discussion people should be free to discuss things in class if we're not free to discuss things we have a de facto blasphemy law in the country which is being enforced by a mob rule that threatens violence against people this is really an appalling situation and i'm glad the government is spoken out against it and i think we need to recover a sense of normality and i sense of people being able to openly discuss and educate
4:24 pm
people about these things of course there's a lot of peaceful protesters as well this made with their what was happening in the school from their point if you mo the protesters said they were going to repeatedly return to the school though until the teacher was no tolerance of opposing views is clearly lacking what kind of precedent does it set of every time a challenging subject arises people to stop dying and discussion freedom of thought under appeased while doing it. well here is the difficulty and i'm probably about 800 years old and i've been around the block a few times and had this discussion a few times every time we've had this discussion of free speech and debate we have put down do worst of the idea is racism hatred we know it's not ok to be racist against muslims to make the argument is your right to be racist or is this racist ok we have a hearing in meghan we have different things going to across the world we see in the current. in respect is that is that what about isn't though there's
4:25 pm
a teacher who's been. they've been thrown under after months after another teacher was beheaded in a different country union i have you and i've been. advising on education policy going into schools saying curriculum inspecting things has been going on for decades now schools have a responsibility there is material to learn from in some of the reports that come from the buckley community are correct where this teacher was there or teachers or this teacher was saying to pupils that your boy is how you blow in the legs or how the boys in iraq we need to look at the cultural milieu we need at the cultural context here we need to investigate this racism is not unseasonable muslims we fair enough we can bomb them overseas all right we can put them into refugee camps we can dismantle their structures and ukip were in a meeting with unfunny of christian concern about angry men in chalo not too long ago where the type of the meeting held by and care about it was dismantling multiculturalism there are groups allied west looking at using muslims as the wedge
4:26 pm
issue and islam as the tool islam as i understand it has always expressed the right to free speech islam has always in trying these values which were adopted into the west try to muslims in gauging with europeans we didn't have the cultural civilizational of conversation which led to the enlightenment or to the founding fathers in america we had a lot of i want to just attention here is there an argument for scrapping religion from school curricula altogether and leaving that up to families and places of worship. absolutely not what this shows is that we need to learn about religion that we need to learn about what people believe and we need to openly discuss them and so people and so people about it let's be very clear about this that discuss your cartoon it's got about about how it has nothing to do with bases and it's not racism at all right it's. either you have a. it's about blasphemy it's about free speech is about what people are says gus and what's happening here is people trying to shut down
4:27 pm
a discussion and using threats of violence when people judge. people who work with the english defense league you keep anti muslim interest across europe and the rest of the while to try and demonize muslims marginalize them would have you laugh you will not win the cultural debate or is he ok to be poked fun at and be racist against must hate it let him out of the lot of us read what else is and you don't get to be offensive towards us ok. so listen what most saying there you don't get to be offensive you see what he's saying is clearly say you want to recruit you for the racist and i'll look at letter to answer that might offend other people so he isn't missing he doesn't want free speech right he's on the side of those who are threatening violence or clearly in this in this sense about this he's clearly saying we mustn't allow people to discuss islam properly to openly discuss what behavioristic what i have said and this kind of thing and that is the threat that we have from this that people are being told you can't do this you can't say that this has been on the hill to do this kind of thing and that is your returns that
4:28 pm
sadly is the nature of islam it is what you have in pakistan and other islamic countries threats of blasphemy as should be beat who was imprisoned and ok can anybody no more the last blast or last i thought 27 still ahead the kind of thing that we have here. and i really won't be told by the christian far right on what is and isn't islam as a musician and as a free speech advocate as an advocate for human rights and gay rights my whole life my track record is long you don't get to put words in my mouth all skeptical is it's not going to have an englishman on screen telling a british agent what's leading man what he believes ok i want to ride out where right out of time or thank you both very very much for a spirit discussion that could have gone on for quite some time there always learn a lot of you know once our political and social commentator and 10 d.f. head of policy from christian conservative. thank you all right more great programs get their start in moments here in order to find out what is showing wherever you are today after the shortest outbreak seeis it.
