millions of colombians of phoolan into poverty because of the pandemic and economic woes medians and the government plan was to hike taxes so taxes on the already impoverished when the people rebelled the state attempted to crush them saying the police had new choice but that's of them senseless. nothing justifies people who protected by the legitimate desires of citizens to march go out to shoot defenseless citizens and crew attack police. there eating degrees of outrage
4:04 am
today in from around the world from concerned to shocked to lip service in fact you could even get away with condemning the protest of all over the world citizens in democratic countries have the unquestionable right to protest peacefully violence and vandalism is an abuse of that right at the same time we urge the utmost restraint by public forces to prevent additional loss of life yes you policeman killing all those city protestors but then again colombia is very friendly with the us america regularly sends troops there so why ruin a good thing but just for reference listen to how the united states to combat the protests in hong kong beijing and hong kong authorities are targeting hong kong as for doing nothing more than exercising protected rights and fundamental freedoms including freedom of peaceful assembly and freedom of speech we will continue to
4:05 am
stand with hong kong as as they respond to beijing says salt on these freedoms and autonomy and we will not stop calling for the release of those detained or imprisoned for exercising their fundamental freedoms you know how many protesters were killed by police in hong kong. 0 how many protesters with killed in russia made years 0 a booth that neck deep in u.s. sanctions will take their days where in neighboring colombia the u.s. tells brutus that behave themselves in venezuela they supported unarmed coupe led by a man described as washington's let go of the brutal murder a regime has systematically repressed the rights of its citizens. it's abuse corruption and mismanagement have stopped a humanitarian crisis we will continue to work with our partners across the region both to alleviate the suffering of the venezuelan people and to exert pressure on the regime so the country can peacefully return to democracy build mention of the
4:06 am
fact that most of the suffering in the. ju-ju american sanctions but. just how politics will how much those in power care about the suffering of other people is directly related to what those in power have to get a why they let the peasants and the disaffected d. stabilize colombia when the president is such a good friend to washington colombia plays a very strategic role and it states in latin america where there are several united states bases and one beer colombia for many years has been headed by governments and presidents that have been subservient to u.s. interests in that region there's even talk of colombia joining nato meanwhile in venezuela you see a lot of the protesters were supported by the united states where did they get the millions of dollars you know came from the united states it came from the n.g.o.s that are acting as hands of the u.s.
4:07 am
government as well as its allies so you see a lot of geo political strategy being used in the united states of course they would turn a blind eye to human rights abuses in colombia because it doesn't. just is ignoring human rights abuses in saudi arabia or anywhere else in the world by u.s. ally it's what they tend to do they tend to overlook things and it doesn't serve their interests. to pull to dozens of black people they're part of a 3000 strong community many of whom a ride from america the country is their ancestral homeland more than 50 years ago however the israeli government now claims that they're in the country illegally and don't qualify for residency. these are a town of demonic doesn't have many claims to fame beyond its name. is part of the secret weapons program but now demonic is back in the news it's home
4:08 am
to a community that cause itself the african israelites of jerusalem now this is a group of african americans who believe that they are the descendants of one of the lost tribes of israel in the case of judah and they see israel as the spiritual homeland we feel that this is are legitimate ancient ancestral homeland we can document feastings culturally historically we could document the fact that that many of us are actually genetically culturally historically connected to this land at this call we want to be part of that. in these very dark times on the planet and we know that we have that contribution to make and we've made that contribution for 50 plus years here in israel and we're known to people and. family members who are over the last 25 years have become deeply intertwined with us this african-american expect community of the largest in the world has lived here for just over hoffa say
4:09 am
but now roughly 100 of facing imminent. interior ministry says they're in the country illegally and has rejected. we had about 2 dozen of our family members friends associates here who received letters of deportation intent and these were cases that had been in limbo for the last 2 decades decades in some cases and so they were given to our great surprise they were given a 60 day notice 21 days to appeal. this is certainly outside observers have acknowledged the fact that racism is an element in the. structure of the ministry of interior door now has just 60 days to get out of the country at pace she's called home for decades and. children all of whom were born in israel also face in an interesting taishan is very disturbing to me oncet think that my children will be deported from the land of their birth they've never lived anywhere else on this
4:10 am
is the life that they know and as well this is the life that i've now spent most of my adult hood here it was where i'm surprised because our community has been here for 53 years we have been a very vital part of israeli society our children serve in the i.d.f. any aspect of israeli society or a part of this field they are living in israel time a tourist visas expired years ago all of us have some degree of issue with the ministry of interior in terms of taking some of you usually a long time to get what you would expect to do to you in 3 years 4 years 4 months is always something the difference is that some of us are already in the system and are moving at least we thought in a positive direction the ministry of interior especially under the dominion of the orthodox parties has always seen us as something other than we're not seen as jews or it's always something else we're outside of the law and we incorporate ball into
4:11 am
the family of the houses of israel and we know that there are many different divergent versions of judaism many different communities with different historians historical and cultural differences that find a way to get along how come we can't fit we committed to this night we've committed ourselves our futures our children 100 percent of our children when they graduate high school they serve in the idea we work as it is really an academic and sports and cultural events around this world the community has come a long way in the 53 years since a film effect from chicago of dr chan with some 50 of his father was devotion and committed to israel they practice all jewish holidays and face to bills each weekend and practice polygamy although it's only a small percentage. the community that faces deportation everyone here is upset and has vowed to stay put police reality to money it's not just israeli deportations causing controversy right now either planned
4:12 am
a vixens of palestinian families in east jerusalem has seen police and protesters clashed violently for a 3rd night running with offices resorting to tear gas and water cannon times. the rest follows a court ruling that 6 families in the area have to leave their homes despite having lived there for generations it's under a controversial law that allows repossession of properties owned by jewish families prior to 1948 those families now have until august to leave in all 58 residents
4:13 am
including 17 children are affected meantime the un is warning of rising violence by israeli settlers against palestinian civilians including the destruction of their property also a number of european countries are continuing to urge israel to abandon its construction of settlements branding them illegal under international law as regards the latest round of elections the court said that the talents of failed to pay rent for several years and were unable to disprove jewish claims on the property we heard from some of the palestinian residents themselves. when you did your what do you mean what is happening is not new it is the israeli occupation our duty is to concede presence in solidarity with others oh presence here is a duty like a prayer and fasting. this battle continues we witness this every day but whenever we witness repression arrest demolition and seizure it's increases the resolve of this whole neighborhood this is evidence that the people are stronger
4:14 am
than the will of the israeli occupation the people who are stronger than the administration of israeli weapons with which peaceful youths who have a right to this holy city are confronted with human have not yet the court does not have the right to abandon any jerusalem citizen who is present who are educated and lived all their life in the city today someone comes to tell them that you have no right to this house this is a clear and explicit violation that insults and humiliates families in jerusalem on we spoke to dmitri giuliani from the fatah revolutionary council which is part of the palestinian parliament he told us israel systematically segregating palestinians. the homes there there were 28 homes that were built by the united nations to house refugees that were invented from their homes owned a when the state of israel was established on the historic land of palestine so
4:15 am
that the a religious group jewish religious group decided to claim these houses that were not built before 48 that they belong to them since the land they have rented for 99 years in one in 800 $85.00 there is a systemic. geisha there's a stomach racism in this area israel including the court system that allows for israeli jews to claim land even though it's false but that they went there in $8085.00 while we cannot go back to our homes that was in the way long before that and lands in the old way long before that the way the police react is very brutal because for example they used during warder. to spray and people's homes so not only process were sprayed people sitting at their homes as well sprayed
4:16 am
they used violence not only against protesters against bystanders or people that are just walking or gets cars driving by so it's a collective punishment thing to not only people that are using their right to practice a few different speech it's also people that really are not even participating in this. this is international the global broadcast for russia delighted you watch in 2 coming up new details on the post breaks it fishing row in jersey really kicked off yesterday didn't it with british navy vessels now won't stand again after returning to port we'll tell you the latest. when we did our 1st show of the year we name 3 things for 2021. dollars ation china
4:17 am
fixation now here we are in the 2nd quarter of 2021 and it's showing up because one of the primary reason for getting inflation here is the day globalization that has put america and china on an antagonistic footing we got a new cold war here and all the benefits that came to the u.s. economy by shipping all of our jobs over to china has now been used up. so what males have tended to do and still do is we tend to we certainly have empathy and all of that but we also tend to do nurture through aggression so we create things like lego soccer and football and you know all of the various hundreds of games that involve aggression you know women are aggressive and can play those games no doubt very well but when you go back to why they were created those were created for males to nurture other males to aggression to teach them how
4:18 am
to be of capek's through aggression. and big pharma firms and fearing for their profits with moves by the e.u. russia and the u.s. to scrap vaccine peyton's during the pandemic the idea is to increase access and production capacity but then hawkins looks at why it's being resisted. just when you thought it was all quiet on a covert vaccine in front a new battle begins it's deja vu it's the haves versus the have nots the poor countries pleading with the global pharma giants through broaden vaccine manufacturing capacity and it seems like they have some unlikely allies in their fight this is a global health crisis and the extraordinary circumstances of the call the $1000.00
4:19 am
pandemic call for extraordinary measures that ministration believe strongly in intellectual property protections but in service of ending this pandemic supports the waiver of those protections for covered 916 on the other side the farmers are holding their ground things are not simple they say despite best intensive and weaver is the simple but their own answer to what is a complex problem waiting patterns of coming 1000 vaccines will not increase production nor provide practical solutions needed to battle this global health crisis this decision does nothing to address the real challenges to getting more shots in arms including last mile distribution and limited availability of raw materials they may have a point what they're really saying is that politicians are scoring points making good headlines without thinking through the whole process calculating risks or planning a strategy where was there concern for the rest of the world just
4:20 am
a few months ago when many wealthy countries hoarded vaccines threatening to sue each other or cut off exports lobbyists would point out it's capitalism a free market unlike governments corporations are no obligation to think about moral issues the greater good of all people before profit just as long as the balance sheet looks good and the numbers show big pharma is bought in the street does look pretty good pfizer alone made 3500000000 in revenue during the 1st quarter of this year so when someone at the u.s. president says it's time. the share big pharma freaks out and so does the market with many companies seeing shares plummet some buy record amounts they're not the only ones panicking some lawmakers are more worried about us that knology falling into the hands of russia or china and not total to blue speaking of russia joe biden has support from unexpected places as moscow approved the country's fork over
4:21 am
job president putin reiterated his support for the proposal but there's a new tone which we should not think about making maximum profit but about ensuring the safety of people even the e.u. has jumped on the patent free bandwagon that you turn from. beliefs that are back scene where you would not be helpful and even with the change of heart w.t. negotiations could take many months to settle we are ready to discuss how the u.s. proposal for waiver on intellectual property protection for covered vaccines could help achieve that objective in the short run however we call upon all vaccine producing countries to allow exports and to avoid measures that disrupt supply chains the race to a world where vaccines are available equally to all has been a marathon it's created political power plays pitting countries against one another
4:22 am
and now governments against corporations the finishing line still seems this didn't even with the best intentions a solution will come too late for many this is not a time to be thinking about profits it's a time to be thinking about people and humanity we're talking about literally there's a bible of millions of people in every part of the globe so i really disagree with big pharma right now who you know we we've seen time and time again that they think about what's best for their pocketbooks rather than thinking about what's best for the heat. and during this pandemic we have seen the wealthiest corporations getting wealthier corporations like amazon just went through the roof with their profits people business people are thinking about their bottom line instead of thinking about the bottom line of humanity. trying to get a story doing for yesterday that really hate it all for the latest is the leaders of britain and france to discuss the jersey fishing dispute of the u.k.
4:23 am
warships rushed to share waters made a protest by french fishermen the navy is now withdrawn for the moment anyway and remains on standby shell a difference he's got the latest for you. there may be cause for car move or the escalating tensions in relation to fishing rights in the english channel but it seems everyone is really playing the n.t. both the u.k. and france sent a military ships to the area to patrol that came as french fishermen took their own action blockading the port of seoul earlier on the island of jersey the main. reason we're really angry with them is that the fishing licenses came with
4:24 am
technical restrictions that were different for each fisherman and these restrictions are completely illegal and violate the breaks a treaty for example a fisherman for some totally illogical reason won't be allowed to fish in a certain zone in jersey's waters another won't be allowed to fish for certain species another will be limited to one fishing technique and when people meet it's uses trolling that's for instance they were different for everyone french fishermen . so what they see as being a breach of the briggs it deal over fishing rights they say that the dish will conditions have been imposed with limits on the number of days that they can fish or what clear that they can use in certain zones they've told r.t. that these restrictions are economically unbearable for french companies and now it seems the european commission is fully behind them on the 30 day reprieve. the commission was notified by the u.k. . of granting 41 life to the. those who are in
4:25 am
jersey. waters from the rest of me but there were additional conditions to be like. we have indicated to the u.k. that we feel. one of the provisions of the e.u. you can trade and cooperation agreement that we've recently agreed not been met and not being respected this week the french 6 maritime minister freckle to cut off chairs the supply of electricity almost all of which comes from hearing from the authorities in jersey saying that they are avoiding by the breaks it agreement the answer to the difficulties that we currently face is without doubt talking and diplomacy but equally we've had disproportionate threats emanating from paris and a potential blockade of our main harbor and they stretch we take serious nature protect
4:26 am
his interests meanwhile jews easy oh if they should we will see that they are the ones who are being bullied by the european union with their livelihoods being put under threats we've had a. huge number of outbursts. that were allowed in on the last yeah but patients from licenses are being processed no faxes taken around about 1500 tons of the same chokers the scholars or their parents have been banned from landing. $1500.00 pounds of a skull. thanks and freelander back in your 50 years senator. kerry in the way to a size of a tree they were said to be livid that they room authorities have been meeting with french fishermen when they say in fact what they should be doing is standing united with them against those threats coming from france so let's. see paris.
4:27 am
