12:01 pm
the program. because he was exposing a war crime he's not allowed to see that he really doesn't have any chance of acquittal. welcome to the international running down the top stories of the day and all. and we start in europe where governments. have the. job. of the european commission of war with a unified response public confidence in a. reaction on the streets of. i mean you want to be there are other vaccines so i cannot see the reason to focus only on astra zeneca if it has problems they're very rare but there are problems. you know for
12:02 pm
certain age groups it should be restricted i personally wouldn't take it as i understand that it can be an advantage for the community but if something goes wrong you could get from basis and then the personal advantage vanishes. for me there is a risk since it has been shown there are people who have unfortunately died after getting vaccinated at a point to subsume the risk is low in their best interest i think so they are never going to say that the risk is high and so that's why it doesn't surprise me there is a bit of confusion we don't know what to trust so i feel a bit of the dark concerns over a potential link between astra zeneca and red blood clots is exposing the latest divisions within the e.u. after the book's agency that evaluates in super voices medicinal products that may once again said the benefits of the vaccine weigh the risks but saying that blood clots should be listed as a rare so i defect not although we're convinced it measures have been taken

it's only in spain of joined ranks with germany deciding to limit the job to those who are over the age of 60 belgium has followed suit with france now only recommending astra zeneca for those over 50 full life but those differences are causing a headache for brussels it's worried that without a common policy towards astra zeneca trust in vaccinations could be eroded commissioner as a member states to ask experts to work with him up to be coherent approach across the region through their guidance and analysis of the trustees to extremely important we want to avoid of course a vaccination however it may be that. this ship has already sailed here in france there have been reports of people not turning up with a coup the vaccination if it's astra zeneca and confusion over who should and who
12:04 pm
shouldn't have it is right there is also a question to be a last about why certain countries are making unilateral decisions against the voice of the may you know inserted that may be simple the head of germany's vaccine commission said the a.m.a. evaluates vaccines based on what's of benefit to all in the e.u. individual countries though can be more picky in germany we have a slightly different situation because we're not so dependent on the astra zeneca vaccine and we can postpone vaccines and thereby achieve the same effect but in the end we still have the risk of these serious side effects in a certain age group over in the u.k. a new restrictions on astra zeneca or even tighter than those that have been taken by the european neighbors that previously the u.k. dismissed questions raised about the jab now the government committee is recommending that healthy people under 30 are provided with
12:05 pm
a different fact seen adults who are age 18 to 29 years old should be offered an alternative that night in fact seen in preference to the astra zeneca vaccine regulators are now would voicing that astra zeneca provides another update on possible side effects and while for some the idea that they have a toy any chance of developing a fatal blood clot may be too much others say that they will gladly take the risk in a bid to put an end to the nightmare so all of the will be out see paris. san marino is set to become the 1st nation in western europe to use sputnik for years its primary covert vaccine the micro state which is within italy has just received another 37000 doses of the russian job and one senior official told us why they turn to moscow. ok we thought of the
12:06 pm
order spread but we face a delayed to supply of the 1st doses of the pfizer vaccine which were covered by protocol agreements between. the pen demick forced us to test for other solutions on the market through cooperation with the russian direct investment fund or managed to you does have something specifically vaccines and start our vaccination campaign vaccinations are now primarily being carried out with the sputnik. we had an opportunity to receive scientific proof that this is a good and reliable vaccine and this is also confirmed by our own internal research of antibodies which measures the safety and efficiency of this year to date we have had absolutely no problems so minor reactions we have detected to comply with standard reaction. which include low grade fever chills and so on right now we have no problems with the san marino hopes to complete its vaccination campaign by may the enclaves home to around $34000.00 people we understand most adults are lining
12:07 pm
up for the job ministers told us they've been working very well with russia. we are definitely happy with the vaccine and are surprised at how good our cooperation with the russian fund has been the professionalism of the funds workers and their willingness to help as well as quick supplies and the jobs it has been a very good experience of cooperation and i hope we will do it again in the course of future vaccination campaigns. cause our fight to get is coronavirus has some particularities because we're a small states with limited resources our health system has limited capabilities to confront the situation caused by cove it this is where it's crucial for us to immunize our population as soon as possible when we saw there are existing vaccines on the european market is limited which complicated the start of our vaccination campaign we decided to contact the russian direct investment fund regarding sputnik
12:08 pm
the. european medicines agency is still considering whether or not to approve a process that's been ongoing for months and one former italian m.p. told us the regulator really needs to act fast. i think that you are. given. to go point of view with these issues. and that. point of view i'd refer to being that it is not so important because or even. if you were a commercial reason it would be in order that it is a very bad week i hope that a wheel a speed up but in case they do not. do that anyway our government as other governments should go along and choose what they want. to build an island has been gripped by rioting throughout the week
12:09 pm
a police fired water cannon for the 1st time in 6 years as pro u.k. loyalists and irish nationalists faced off at the disturbances come amid a wave of anger over post trade barriers and so sure the scene from belfast on friday night protesters torched a trash can a car and hold of rocks and petrol bombs at police northern ireland's 1st minister arlene foster has urged both sides to show restraint and the british prime minister has expressed his alarm and is calling for dialogue. i am deeply concerned by the scenes of violence in northern ireland especially attacks on the p.s. and i who are protecting the public in business attacks on a bus driver and the assault of a journalist this week to resolve differences is through dialogue not violence or criminality. meanwhile northern ireland's justice minister has blamed the u.k. government for the flare up there and the long accuse the conservatives of dishonesty over the way it would affect the irish border saying that they had
12:10 pm
promised fettered access while failing to work through their legal consequences she also slammed the british government's decision to suspend the northern ireland protocol which was a part of the u.k.'s withdrawal agreement with the e.u. aimed at alternately ensuring an open border jonathan tong a professor of british and irish politics thinks the government made a series of false promises to the people of northern ireland. for the british government johnson in particular after a considerable amount of responsibility it was part of johnson to do went over to belfast and totally democratic party the largest party movement to look how the party conference 3 years ago would be told that any british government to preside over the border in the irish sea johnson says hockey's previously treason may sign a good deal within the year for his johnson done that and since then he spends a lot of time to tending that the reason why between great britain and northern ireland so you decide where the single line through the terrible sense of betrayal
12:11 pm
over what the prime minister was don't think that boris johnson needs to go to northern ireland explain what he's done in terms of the protocol and try and also meet with the you leaders to instigate simile the worst effects the protocol and diminish the number of checks your own troops go between great britain and northern ireland otherwise we are looking ahead to a grim some of potentially of violence in northern ireland. a former us intelligence analyst faces up to 10 years in prison for blowing the whistle on washington's drone assassination program daniel hale pleaded guilty to transmitting national defense information his case comes amid mass disclosure of similar crimes allegedly perpetrated by the us.
12:12 pm
i have to tell you when he called me a few hours ago he was surprisingly upbeat and optimistic and he he remarked about how much press this issue has been getting since he decided to plead guilty so in the end i think that he thinks that this is been worth it that americans know more about the drone program now than 8 they did 6 months ago or a year ago and even though he's likely going to go to prison it was worth it the u.s. is flying these drones or at least it was until recently that were used ostensibly to kill terrorists or would be terrorists but in reality to kill anybody who might
12:13 pm
resemble a terrorist and that included women and children and the elderly and anybody else who happened to be on the ground i believe that we're we're a nation of laws and we have to abide by those laws whether we like them or not if we don't like them we should change them go through the process and change them if congress has not declared war on a country we don't have a right to attack it we just can't decide that we don't like the politics of whoever happens to be in charge in a place like yemen or pakistan or afghanistan and then launch drone strikes against them it's a violation of international law. data which hale gave to the online news site the intercept back in 2014 was made available to the public and he's now accused of disclosing classified intelligence information his supporters say these kinds of exposures however are essential. using the espionage act in this way to
12:14 pm
prosecute journalists sources and spies chills newsgathering and discourages sources from coming forward with information in the public interest particularly when it relates to national security where government secrecy is at its height these documents detail the secret unaccountable process for targeting and killing people around the world including u.s. citizens through drone strikes there are vital public importance and activities related to their disclosure is protected by the 1st amendment. haleigh was arrested 2 years ago and charged with violating the espionage act and other related offenses a president biden though for the meantime has imposed temporary restrictions on drone strikes in most countries but there are reports he aims to boost exports of unmanned weapons to countries including those with poor human rights records john kiriakou again says however justified whistle blows exposure of drone strikes seem to be they have next to no chance of proving that to us oath or a tease. this is the really the worst part of the of the espionage act this is
12:15 pm
the reason why ed snowden can't come home this is the reason why i couldn't go to trial this is the reason why jeffrey sterling the other cia whistleblower was convicted because there is no affirmative defense we are prohibited by law from going into court and saying i did it but i did it for this reason and in in the case of daniel hale this was a war crime he did it because he was exposing a war crime he's not allowed to say that and so he really doesn't have any chance of acquittal the best thing to do for daniel as it was for me as it was for so many others here charged under the espionage act is to take a deal and to hope for the lightest possible sentence the decision that was made early on even before joe biden was inaugurated to pursue the appeal against julian assange it was that decision that made it clear that joe biden was going to pursue
12:16 pm
national security leaks just like barack obama did and just like donald trump did after him. well the government officials in erar now describing a blackout of a nuclear site as a terrorist incident not tons facility suffered an earlier on sunday which was initially described as an electrical grid failure that happened just hours after iran launched a new set of well advanced centrifuges for foster uranium enrichment last year there was an explosion at the same facility which the authorities called an act of sabotage so far tehran has given no indication as to who may be responsible for the latest incident but here on our team we're keeping a close track of the story and we will keep you up to. well this is our team international as we gear up for monday's historic anniversary of the 1st human in space continues its special coverage just a bit later in the program russia's 1st woman on the international space station

12:18 pm

longer be part of the dreams of the children of today and then she went and slashed government funding through the local flight clubs in her area because in her opinion government money shouldn't be spent on a sport that has a carbon footprint so i'm off to meet a flight instructor and examiner. to find out what he thinks about the idea of stopping flying this french madness french politician has said children shouldn't even dream of fly. what do you think about that as a as an idea. but some point in the future it might be relevant but for the pacific future it's just people can live. without it because everybody knows you still can come short form to. pollution point of view done in 25 in one hour in russia has more pollution than the whole of the g.i.
12:21 pm
from a small aircraft so the m 25 being the big ring road because i was the keeper you have international viewers the big ring right out of the routes to the london so that's more pollution and one hour more without the g i don't care for you ok ga be a general idea generally easier with all footprint and this isn't as large as it would be going to be listed no one is over wow that's a big claim a day yes a big claim for what you say isn't have young people who just say you're just an old man that loves flying and is obsessed with his own pastime and isn't thinking about requirement emergence a would that be right. but but if you're thinking about climbing you climb the emergency there were other things of more important news of your looks but more debugging something nice to be done for my grandchildren or great but generally the ocean. is just a pimple on the pigs but sought. by
12:22 pm

12:25 pm
a cube or groovy and i would get older again before all. became got really all. of them up off a list. because number she put it on me and got him a lot of shuffle from the above them. you to get is now the. right for the to see your ego getting i want you to stop without a coffee on the tops of. your the judge just stop saying kidding me or do you want to go get me. that cut a hole in a little bit in the kitchen and on that i do nothing judy i.e. . not. care for
12:26 pm
me here and that's something i. made with a mutual love that i was sure there were. big and easy anything we don't operate on what then do you have. invented in felony. and united states. of the merkel when i. got from. dark who are bogus will near your house be hearing the things. i think. of russian guy the 1st guy and. something right. jagger is real like an actor he was in that movie with my chevy chase down at royce like that in the eighty's.
12:27 pm
miracle in mustique. those who see most mystery. and let. me take you to the never and. here we go we are. sporting the. well you know sort of. as the 1st russian female to fly to the international space station she told us that multinational space travelers have had to create their own language to make themselves understood. less like the others because most of what we 1st joined the course may not t.m.s. candidates and then go through the preparations which take your own 2 years during this time we study spacecraft and space station systems we also prepare for some experiments which are carried out in the international space station so we study biotechnology astrophysics astronomy we study the stars that's part of the
12:28 pm
compulsory program physical exercises are also added a lot of time is dedicated to that and of course medicine is very important for the cosmonaut to stay healthy throughout their preparatory stage so that they can get through it there is also a special training including parachute jumping and learning to react fast and make proper decisions at extreme situations with a time constraint. little book a small elf every cosmonaut is an inch near as well as a researcher i also had an additional function i was the cruise doctor our functions were interchangeable all of us did the routine tasks into and there was also plenty of research work for our crew carried out more than 60 experiments in areas including biotechnology astrophysics and chemistry our crew work together in harmony and we had no language problems as there are 2 international languages on the i assess russian and english and we communicated by mixing languages
12:29 pm
a board you could call it. our brains are always trying to remember shorter words so sometimes when i was back on earth i found myself remembering an english word but not the russian so we worked in unison everyone has their own mission at the weekends we would get together we celebrated some holidays or just for a day and watched movies listen to. zick talk to each other there was work and saturdays and sundays but not as intense as the weekdays sometimes we even saying to guitar as there is one on the r.s.s. . of course most of which are but all of that is that i miss being in space the feeling of the space flight is very special just to give you an idea in the us orbital segment there is a glass more chill as we make 16 fool orbits around the earth each day we often fly over the night side and when you are in that more children you turn off the lights so you can feel you're flying over the earth and you do not feel like you're in the
12:30 pm
station and that's a great sensation like being in and show it is something i miss well you know there was none too pleased however with reporters asking her how she would look after her hair in space pointing out male cosmonauts no such questions there we got the lowdown from the person in charge of cosmic headers. because when i did not come to me specifically for a haircut i came to the hotel for my client the hotel director as they said that i would do the hair for 3 cosmonauts and 3 understudies a little that is how it began on april 6th 2008. because all sound wanted short some just a little off more care for it but there were also model haircuts there were different ones i even rated the korean cosmonaut girl she was 20.
