4:04 am
are called got vaccinated there was no warning about the rest of us on the information sheet or on the informed consent. and it's not the only complication for vaccine mine. as finds as warning of a surge in fraudulent doses say with us for more on this story later in the program . germany is planning to ramp up deliveries of russians that scene after chancellor merkel admitted fundamental failings and a need to change e.u. health policy with more on this his artie's peter oliver. germany is set to receive 30000000 doses of the sputnik very vexing over the summer the c.d.u. leader in the state of saxony michael mann arrived in moscow on thursday to meet with the russian health minister he said that the federal government in berlin is expecting 10000000 russian jobs 3 times in may june and july we will see
4:05 am
whether the approval and acceptance of this vaccine is as high everywhere else as it is in saxony and eastern germany maybe we'll even get more then the news about sputnik comes amid reports that from the end of may all adults in germany could be able to get an appointment for a vaccine until america has also been discussing the future of health policy across the e.u. saying that the code pandemic has highlighted issues that may require a change in treaties i believe that europe needs greater competency in the area of health this will probably also require changes to treaties i have always been open to treaty changes if they make sense this is not an end in itself and you can also do a lot of things through coordinating policy at the intergovernmental level but it certainly makes sense to also have european level competency for certain situations especially pandemics the problem is for months now europeans have seen the e.u. authorities competent so coveted securing doses but they say they are the ones to
4:06 am
blame i have joined ireland as one of the parties to the legal case specifically around astra zeneca is complete failure to meet its delivery and contractual agreements for may in june astra zeneca could well find themselves sued for breach of contract for supposedly having over promised and failed to deliver. one company that will be getting involved with e.u. procurement contracts is french austrian vaccine manufacturer never they've pulled out of talks with brussels to provide that job which is currently undergoing stage
4:07 am
3 trials after the company said they couldn't make any progress with the e.u. they'll now seek deals with individual countries with only around 7 percent of the german population fully vaccinated the home pays that with more doses arriving and restrictions on who they could be given to lifting that over the summer germany can ramp up their vaccination program and get more jobs into more people's arms peter all over r.t. . our sister channel r.t. torch has talked to the russian foreign ministry spokeswoman marie has a higher fat as she says brussels playing politics has had his pandemic response. it would. let's be realists the european union simply last time it could have been a leader in an occupation and a leader in vaccine production but they didn't happen why politicisation tie the hands e.u. officials tied the hands of industrialists and businesses and ultimately to the
4:08 am
hands of the own people you went against the interests of its own members and i don't know whether you are allowed to talk about this in the e.u. but that's the objective reality it's a fact just like the fact that called it in 2020 highlighted the immense problems in the european union and in the west in general the u. has not been able to deal with the worldwide catastrophe but it's not like we haven't had them before yes the world hadn't dealt with the ground in of planes and border closures and such scale but the world has dealt with fund diamonds before and it turned out the those who call themselves leaders of the world are and that at all is just chest thumping turns out the european union specifically germany france and many other countries and also the us couldn't offer anything to the world as an example of dealing with the pandemic unfortunately they didn't live up to the task neither in the economic terms nor socially nor in terms of development
4:09 am
and implementation of vaccines that's not how a real leader does it. the u.s. is under heavy activists pressure to slash police funding in the wake of high profile killings by offices but huge numbers of americans say such political agendas leave them vulnerable to criminals artie's caleb maupin has the story. there are children is now behind bars but many americans don't seem to view him as simply a bad apple the idea that all police are irredeemable seems widespread among liberal politicians it wasn't an accident policing in our country is inherently and intentionally racist no more policing incarceration and militarisation it can be reformed congresswoman elano maher laid out what her agenda is for dealing with the police 1st demilitarize the police with protests becoming more intense some argue now is not the time to tie the hands of the officers then there are steps to
4:10 am
criminalize violence against protesters now we can all agree about peaceful protesters but what about those who burn buildings or engage in property destruction next stage disband and deconstruct police stations now in some parts of the country they are taking that literally and portland we saw protesters disengage and the light of police union building on a grand scale if it's what they want which is the reduction or elimination of law enforcement you can see on the streets you will get survival of fittest you will get the american who knows them to find themselves defending against those who don't in the lesser of it you're going to get a complete lack of morale which is going to lead to just men and women who sit in their cars and collect a paycheck and the proactive law enforcement which will be done by presence only will only completely lead to more crimes and the only people going to urge the community so people are not really thinking they're thinking out of motion and the politicians are 100 percent capitalizing office and it's going to be the people who
4:11 am
suffer the most now police chasing down suspects on foot is something you can see in all kinds of t.v. and movies but the mayor of chicago now says it may be time to give that a rest no one should die as a result of a foot chase now of course this raises some questions say a woman's purse is so that the police then have to call and ask permission before chasing down the perpetrator. police feel that they are being demonized and in some cases they are resigning saying that the atmosphere is too restrictive polls show that a large percentage of americans do fear that a shortage of police officers could result in chaos nationwide los angeles has seen an 80 percent increase in shootings we now have the mayor a democrat calling for an increase in the police budget reversing the cuts in the police department made at the height of the black lives matter protests last year this is purely political for the reason that the systemic racist problem in law enforcement isn't the american police officer it's just the system is the
4:12 am
politicians who make the laws it's it's the the prosecutors in the defense attorneys but nobody wants to talk about that so the easiest pawn to play in this whole game is the police officer or the easiest one to wind up attacking because they're the front line in between the community and ultimately what happens to the community member the police and the public have a relationship and if one party is always abused and criticised and the other party refuses to take accepting accountability for what they're doing you're going to get the one side that just ultimately throws up their arms and walks away so to be honest whatever the american police choose to do if it stand down or if it's all in all give up or tire resign walk away then nobody should really be shocked what's happening the morale is going to be massively low and you're going to get men and women who are completely unappreciated walking and good luck to whatever happens in america we have all seen the horrendous videos of police shootings anger is completely justified and reform is long overdue but there is still another question
4:13 am
what will replace them that is what has many americans very nervous caleb r.t. new york. the pandemic situation in india has taken a shop change for the one with more than 300000 new cases registered for the 2nd day in a row and indian talks have best into tears while making an emotional plea for people to follow the coronavirus rules. we have. to leave their patients at home with oxygen and this is not something we are drawing so i do your literally or do all of you want to follow a few things that only and requesting your to follow so most importantly please stick it off yourself that i now call where does everybody read i don't do you believe this keep yourself very well masked or dave's with a shocking images you are seeing right now are of open air criminal tory i'm so

4:19 am
and today millions of people could get the facts and i would like oh people to clearly realize that this is a crime by washington what the united states has done since day one of covert 19 was that it last year on from using the international financial sector and that's basically iran from importing test kits. importing. all sorts of hospital supplies in order to combat covert 19 now under 5 in the united states continues to pursue the same. policy iran counts as for the money of the united states is blocking it and the iranian backed program has been delayed for months as a result iran doesn't need their help you ron wants them to stop trying to harm iranians. and this comes amid reports of cautious progress the talks in vienna on reviving the iran nuclear deal the biden administration wants to revive the pact
4:20 am
which previously gave iran sanctions relief in exchange for scaling back of its nuclear energy program but there is a sticky sticking point washington wants iran to act 1st and limit its uranium enrichment before sanctions can be lifted what iran says the u.s. which left the pact unilaterally under trump needs to take the step. off the arabic spoke to a candidate for next year's a rainy and presidential election he says the country is ready for dialogue with america. our relations with america are based on mistrust this goes back to before the iranian revolution even then the actions of the us government caused people to lose trust in the americans if the united states wants to establish relations with iran will welcome that we want relations with all countries of the world except for the zionist entity which is our red line america must atone for its past mistakes regarding iran washington must earn back the goodwill of the iranians the way the nuclear deal has played out shows that the americans don't keep their word so i
4:21 am

4:22 am
before it could hit the streets dr john dombrowski from the washington pain center says it's a tragic case of supply and demand. there's a lot of demand out there and there may not be enough supply so people will have to fill that hole what happens in the country of mexico there prophecy is a lack of supply so maybe the government is supporting it or not but obviously people money always go to the head of the line that's what happens because it's all about corruption there's a lot of money out there is a lot of money sloshing around and we see this all the toy and obviously when you're buying things outside of the pharmaceutical industry you really don't know what you're getting in thankfully to your point no one was hurt or damaged and obviously in poland you know day thankfully those products ever get out to the public i think you want to be the thing is like let the buyer beware if it sounds too good to be true believe 'd it if you give me a $1000.00 you learned they had a why really so perhaps it's one of those things just follow the system follow the
4:23 am
guidelines you know make sure are you really are at risk that you want to get this vaccine already or you are not so it's ok you know and obviously we need to just use your judgment but use the governmental systems follow the system of the guidelines so try to jump the line because you're probably losing a $1000.00. violent clashes in downtown jerusalem have left at least a 100 people then jets jewish and arab demonstrators square adolphe's police struggled to keep them apart. the incident occurred when hundreds of marchers shouting anti arab slogans were
4:24 am

4:25 am
shown on the screen right in the middle of the president's marker on speech president of france and the funny thing about it was that the term president roh was introduced as a live gassed he was given the floor into middle of his speech he realized that it was a tape and there was a moment of confusion on the american side and we had a few minutes of. truth in it staring blankly at one another from this green so i thought that that was. quite funny it quite ironic it's actually expressed the tension that existed between the 2 sides but at the end of the day you know inclusions quote here expressed his point of view and this time it went on so it's on a what about the actual content of the summit i understand there were some stark differences in how various world leaders want to address the issue of climate crisis what was said about there are a lot of talk about mother nature and things like that but for the time being
4:26 am
the americans and their european colleagues have committed you cutting greenhouse gas and you know the steps will set america on a path to your kaname by november 25th at the church that america represents less than 50 percent of the world's regressions no nation. can solve this crisis on our own as i know you all fully understand all of us all of us and particularly those of us who represent the world's largest economies we have to step up that formula is not we have it south it is an issue of still in the florida large disagreement the russian president for example. what the reader should take into account is not only how much each country amidst but also how much it absorbs as you. do to the vast capacity of our ecosystem russia makes
4:27 am
a huge contribution to absorb and glue missions both around and from elsewhere it's estimated around $2500000000.00 tons of c o 2 could land per year. the europeans and americans are not suki in the on including that absorption capacity in the into the formula also there is a major disagreement on the chinese side because the chinese how long they are going developing countries have been somewhat late to the industrialization party so for down the commitments should not be as stringent do you think this whole climate conference is an issue that will unite the countries together or are we going to see more beefs down the road to a lot of suspicions in this country and also around the world that the americans the europeans i trying to use the climate that gender to sensually. kickstarter the globalization 2.0 that they want to use this issue to keep that control at
4:28 am
all over the labor distribution and around the world and disappointing that the suspicion i can quote john kerry. we buy into the administration's special envoy on climate who said not so long ago that no government can officially deal with this subject and that it should be essentially a left to be private sector meaning turns national corporations and i think in many parts of the world it is those transnational are parade. that doesn't. make a huge our forces are all over it consumption that led to the degradation of the environment in different places so i think what we are going to see are emerging geo political differences in who should lead this process who should contribute to this process and whether it should be about. corporate average or state effort paradox he would love to hear your thoughts on all of our stories so do get in touch by following us on social media and living or your comments there and
4:29 am
