a former olympic weightlifter tells r.t. faber lastly being told to be quiet about any issues they have with transgender athletes competing with other women. when they haven't we have tried to speak out we've been told that we can't say that anything we do say but it seems to lead to being taken so that human rights. other thanks for joining us here on the. european leaders of turn their noses up at a u.s. proposal to wave a peyton rice to covert vaccines splits about the move appeared during an e.u. summit this weekend german chancellor angela merkel saying that it would not solve the ongoing shortage of shots around the world. for me for me questioning patient
6:02 am
protection here is not the path to lead us to more vaccines and better vaccines i have made it clear that i do not believe that the waving of peyton's is a solution to make that available to more people this is an idea muted by the by i didn't ministration last week they said you know what we can do is we can wave with the pain to it's ok with vaccines which will allow the vaccine production to be ramped up in other countries because the portuguese who hadn't created that back scene would then be able to produce it it's an idea that the world health organization has welcomed but jemele is welcoming this to all but could germany be left out on its own in the cold over this issue taking the opposite side to this was france's president michael who suggested that the idea of wavering vaccine peyton's could be a good idea opiate he flip flopped on this quite a few times of the weekend so it's yet to be determined where he will land on this
6:03 am
particular issue he seemed to be incensed infuriated when he was pressed a press conference by journalists as with a europe should be following the us is a leader on this and he basically said us follow them i think you'll find it's the opposite way to the scripts i ask you the european press and almost psychological question when a year ago we europeans lost access to covert tools accelerates and you didn't say oh you europeans have moral leadership and the us isn't following you and when the us follows us which is in fact what is happening you say ah the us is showing leadership emanuel mako on though had his own criticism specifically for the us when it comes to the export ban on covert vaccines and all essential ingredients needed by european produces to make the vaccine here drop them is what he demanded . i call it very clearly only. and i just used to when the export bans not only on
6:04 am
vaccines but on components of those vaccines that are necessary for production we've killed back today saying it can't produce a vaccine in europe because components a block from the united states lift the export bans. just about this in context has exported around 200000000 doses of vaccine is around the world at the same time the white house is pretty much put a blokey ban on any cooking vaccines to leaving its shores in the comes at a time when this seems to be this growing frustration this tension in the e.u. over the idea that basically the party didn't administration is now pushing forward its own agenda as if it's the one we needing to charge all the way through the covert health crisis and some might be questioning whether in the future when this is over that the story that will be painted is that this is another war albeit a covert war that america won glossing what's really happened.
6:05 am
meanwhile a new poll in france suggests 40 percent of nurses want to change their profession they complain of working conditions small salaries and a lack of recognition and perspective we spoke to. he says discontent among health workers has already been growing for some time. you know when i read in the newspapers that 40 percent of nurses want to change their jobs i'm terrified they leave and want something else not because of the covert crisis is due to prostration it's been building up over several decades and they have already expressed that by going out onto the streets and demonstrating that those protests were violently suppressed in france the police often not too forceful oppressive methods you saw what happened to the yellow vests and the demonstrations of medical personnel were also brutally suppressed with john diamond special forces clearly peace in their powers so when the crisis hit employees who were already tired and
6:06 am
devastated by then demanded recognition of their work and a pay raise but it never happened it was like somebody poured ice cold water on them the french health care system which was ranked 3rd or 5th best in the world has turned out to be a fiction of medical personnel are exhausted salaries are miserable and people are starting to understand what is really going on. according to the poll 51 percent of nurses think that their profession doesn't allow them to experience a real career development and prospects nearly 2 thirds consider their job thankless well 92 percent believe the health crisis has shown the role and duties of nurses must be reviewed issue salaries as a concern as well more than 75 percent of working nurses and less than the national average with enormous pressure on the health system during the pandemic salaries because one of the main issues for widespread protests among workers last year the government them promised to spend an additional 8000000000 euros to boost wages or a trickle against as the authorities have failed medical workers. priests we
6:07 am
were called heroes during the 1st wave but now the it's a mining that we do more than ever before and the directives that come from the government are a catastrophe bordering on criminal we have an invisible common enemy 19 and specialists from different fields united to fight it and only the government failed to provide the medical staff with the necessary protective equipment and did not revise their working conditions i am simply horrified that the prime minister is talking on t.v. about some kind of victory they say we did not have to introduce another lockdown and this is a victory but let them explain that to those who have lost their relatives to be honest i don't understand what kind of victory we can talk about here. israeli police fired tear gas and stun grenades and new clashes with palestinian protesters at a holy site in jerusalem. covered
6:08 am
ation comes as israeli is mark and you will join us live today that of embrace of the unification of jerusalem and the establishment of israel in the old city of line israeli nationalists plan to march through the muslim quarter of jerusalem's old city on monday and you will about widely perceived as a provoked of display of jewish germany over the contested city. the latest violence follows days of tensions over the possible addiction of palestinians from land claimed by jewish settlers israel says the seizures are necessary for security clashes over the past few days of left almost 300 palestinians injured some scenes from jerusalem on sunday. i am i.
6:09 am
tensions have reach maximum points here outside jerusalem as you can see the israeli soldiers are marching forward and they're ready to apply the full force of the law fans really police have surged forward to arrest and number of people so you can see that that's happening over there and now people are going to run back because it's going to be strengthening coming in our direction there are water bottles being thrown there are glass bottles being heard rocks being thrown around it really is a game of people pushing forward and then retreating and inserting forward until the israeli police are able to clear the area we are looking at the 3rd consecutive night of clashes here in jerusalem and at the same time this is the worst violence that the city has seen in 4 years tensions are so confining high not just here in jerusalem but across the west bank reinforcements have been brought in now the
6:10 am
israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has to he will not allow strict elements to riot interview slim and he'll make sure that worshipers are able to practice the freedom of worship all of this of course is happening during the holy month of ramadan which is part of the reason why we seeing this take intensions also 2 things to watch for on monday they will be the annual jerusalem day commemoration in which thousands of israelis take part they march through the streets and they will be coming this way which is likely to provoke the situation which is why some have been calling for to be delayed and the other big story we've been watching is what's going to happen with the forced evictions are some 70 palestinians from their homes in the arab israeli neighborhood of chef jarrah now they want supposed to be an announcement tomorrow by the supreme court but that has been delayed because of the tensions that we've witnessing here in jerusalem at the same time a court has gone out from her months to actually for people to come to the street.
6:11 am
and provoked the situation the fact that the palestinian president mahmoud abbas indefinitely postponed the palestinian elections that was supposed to happen later this month has also added to tensions and he believes the israelis are next so fun this violence one israeli youngster has been killed and one palestinian youngster has been killed so they tell me that barricades tension soaring high at the moment the way it looks epic far from over policy at r.t. jerusalem. meanwhile in this for that you can see israel's iron dome defense system intercepted what was said to be 2 rockets fired from gaza on sunday night israel also says incendiary believes have been lost in gaza sparking fires that burned for several days the anti war and it's a coalition is richard becker says the recent events marked the biggest spike in tensions between the 2 sides for years now yahoo is hoping that somehow repression
6:12 am
we're going to have our problems with all the corruption charges and so forth and some are going back and for our efforts but there's something much bigger was going on here well i think i understand and this is where required to this post are on where they are now facing. the possibility of a new mass rebellion so we're seeing something that we haven't seen in a long time and it's really is a reaction to the increasing and intensified russian and repression of the civilians. use ilands forward to tracey lumberjacks claims that female athletes are being told to big quiet over any issues they have about transgender people participating in women's competitions. when ever we have tried to speak out we've been told that we can't say that anything we do say. it seems to lately have been taken so the human rights court so we've been dissing
6:13 am
carriage every step of the way even to this day it's all being told to be quiet and not talk about it laurel was overweight lestat before the transition so having transitioned in the thirty's that athlete would have still had the benefits of peace tossed her own for 30 years so there's no way of a woman making compete against a transcendent athlete who's had that been a sense of taste ostrow for that long even with having to lower it they lowered it now it's still me i 18 times the amount the average female is a reason why in sport we do have male and female character e and by allowing this to happen it's just earlier in the lines which is a 1st raise when transgender athlete laurel hubbard was allowed to compete as a woman before transitioning in 2013 harvard competed in men's weightlifting
6:14 am
competitions later in 2015 she was permitted to take part in the olympics after the i.o.c. released rules for transgender athletes allowing them to compete as women and they want to transition from female to male is allowed to compete with other males without restriction but those who transition from male to female face certain conditions firstly their gender status has to be confirmed as female and it must have chains for at least 4 years and the level of testosterone has to be below 10 for at least 12 months tracy lumberjacks again thinks the rules should be evolving as the sport us. needs to be more research tests. looking into the facts and making sure that everyone is on the same pates whether or not the rules of santa that's what needs to be discussed these roles were i think i am develops in 2013 or 2015 we're now in 2021 so i feel like the bulls should be evolving as the sport has and as. people of all because people are coming out now
6:15 am
more transgendered and i think that we just need to keep up with science why should i compete when i'm never going to be able to one because of this is what i'm up against and i think it is there is the potential to have women dropping out of sports which is not what we want we want to increase in women planes for those coming on the international u.s. politicians are split over blake reports on unemployment and going to think is that amidst the news the president's emergency rescue package might be proving more hindrance than a help to the economy the details coming up. remembering more on this edition of the program we explain why russians have an aversion to war
6:16 am
contrary to what you say in west and at the recent g 7 foreign ministers meet russia was declared reckless and expressed it was really reckless in the press. the problem with having money printing. near 0 percent or 0 percent interest rates is that it destroys price signals in the economy because you're saying the underlying fundamental substance of the economy that is money money itself is the grow material economics of capitalism you're saying it has a 0 value so therefore if you have a 0 value for the substance of your economy it's very very difficult to build something that you can point to say well that has value and that one doesn't have any value because they're both equally valued last.
6:17 am
welcome back when it comes to relations with russia the e.u. seems to be sending out some mixed messages is foreign minister for example says it's time for cooperation with moscow to be fixed but the czech prime minister has suggested all member states should be expelling at least one russian diplomat. it has been following this story and joins me in the studio. as a mixed messages can you make sense of this well if you're trying to understand policy towards russia in recent days good luck because for
6:18 am
a block his premise is unity and cooperation that's the real splintering here on monday his foreign minister came out in essentially said that process needs to stop pushing ties with russia to an irreparable brink we're certainly in a difficult phase of our relationship with russia both between slovak and russia but also collectively between the european union and russia we need to stop the negative spiral of our relationship. now germany's supports the sentiment says it's time to mend fences with russia so there's one camp that's working to repay rebuild news that the kremlin welcomes but on the other hand another camp has emerged and it is the czech republic weeks off to prague out of the blue and without any evidence accused russian agents of being behind an explosion at a weapon stop in 2014 and expelled russian diplomats as punishment it's now asking all the e.u. nations to jump on its bandwagon and also kick out some russian officials on top of
6:19 am
that it's also apparently going to demand financial compensation from moscow for that explosion to the tune of $39000000.00 euros now whether the whole block will take a sledgehammer to its ties with russia and fulfill progs wishes is pretty unlikely partly because the whole explosion story is so far from watertight fastolf it was a case that ran cold for 7 years and suddenly it was resurrected from the dead the 2nd thing is that the investigation is still ongoing but already the blame has been laid at the kremlin school step but the most bizarre thing is that the czech president himself came out and said he see nothing that would suggest russian responsibility and that this anti russian hysteria has to stop this is the czech president himself why would he want to undermine his own country for that state he was actually accused of treason so like i said good luck trying to get to the bottom of what it was what it is that the e.u.
6:20 am
wants from russia is it donald or is it a deterioration of ties seeing it in the example again of what was witnessed already during the pandemic of individual states understand really good times looking after their individual interest but of course they're all part of this union as the been any kind of unifying message to come out of brussels well i think 1st off when you talk about what russia's position is because russia has made it very clear from the beginning that it's always open to dialogue but when prague expelled the russian diplomats when talk of sanctions. it did speak out pretty strongly it said that this was all an e.u. state to quote. please the western leader now off the back of that regarding brussels and its statement i do want to listen to something that we heard from one of its representatives our relations with the u.s. is changing now we have a strong partnership this became especially clear after the g. 7 summit will discuss russia with which on the contrary relations are not improving
6:21 am
now of course we know that the u.s. has never shied away from waiting in matters probably in recent days the most obvious example of this is the north trying to pipeline that would deliver gas from russia to germany washington was dead set against it from the very beginning it sanctioned and centrally threatened or european companies that were involved but what we just heard from burrell is an incredibly strange statement because essentially the suggestion is that good relations with the u.s. are dependent on bad relations with russia and that kind of rhetoric does nothing to dispel rumors that a western leader is pushing e.u. russia ties to the cliff so like i said it's all really entangled infighting within the e.u. infighting within the czech republic and with prague diverging so much from its neighbors setting up its own campaign you have to ask is it doing it for itself or is it doing it as someone else's behest international relations as complicated as ever thanks for bringing us all the details. because the recent u.s.
6:22 am
jobs report paints a grim picture of the country's unemployment rate some of blame joe biden's relief package for holding back any chance of an improvement despite his good intentions but assessing the political divisions over how to jumpstart the country's economy. when biden became president democrats of relief could probably be heard from space now it was all going to be fine even a once in a lifetime pandemic battering america's economy didn't rattle their faith and defying all odds biden was predicted to create a whopping 1000000 new jobs in april alone and then the actual figures came in it looks like 266000. it looks like it was a big disappointment at $266.00 but maybe i have it wrong if you double check the bureau website here. for us $266.00 is correct yeah
6:23 am
and that was his face before he found out about also the surge in unemployment so expectation versus reality biden's excuse well you shouldn't have got your hopes up in the 1st place we knew this would be a sprint would be a marathon quite frankly removing more rapidly than i thought we would today there's more of a looser economy is moving in the right direction just to put things into perspective this is the sort of treatment trump was getting as president during the 1st 3 years before the pandemic sent the world's finance into a death spiral bundle and sent mainstream journalists bent over backwards to deny him the credit for the u.s. economy actually doing well trump is sitting pretty out of solid economy and he likes to take credit for it he inherited an economy that was improving it is really hard to think of things donald trump has actually done to make the economy better
6:24 am
trump pales in comparison to recent presidents some economy has bailed to top the best quarters of the obama years so the hope was a biden landed himself in must be boiling by now not so much apparently unlike trump he's not the villain it's actually kind of funny which are going to go 266000 jobs added to the economy it's a disappointment jobs are still gaining back we are still more jobs are still being added president biden is pitching his infrastructure bill as a way to fill that jobs gap coming out of this pandemic is challenging you know we have different conditions across the country we can see can rescue plan really doing its job we're seeing that our economy is still growing we're still recovering and you might say well there is still a pandemic and you'll be absolutely right it's not making things any. easier except covert 19 is not the only culprit keeping americans out of work the other one is biden and he's very generous stimulus checks why would you seek
6:25 am
a job when the government is literally showering you with free money the disappointing jobs report makes it clear that paying people not to work is dumping what should be a stronger jobs markets $1.00 step policymakers should take now is ending the $300.00 weekly supply mental unemployment benefits based on the chamber's analysis the $300.00 benefits results in approximately one in 4 recipients taking home more in unemployment that they earned working a great many of kentucky ends and americans look at the situation and find they are better off financially to stay home rather than go back to work but it's not trump who put the dollar printing press into overdrive so there's no need for personal attacks let's all stay civil the biden administration speaks as if it can control all events and that is just simply not true this is a fantasy right now they're extending the unemployment benefits merely because they want to pay people to vote for them it's all political but the economic result is
6:26 am
a huge shortage of labor for business and it's and it's harming business by ends using the political chaos in this country to pass trillions and trillions of spending bills that are a complete unnecessary waste of money the policies of the biden ministration that we see in just over the last 3 months have been like nothing we've ever seen and in american history just an absolutely irresponsible thing the jobs report that came out that was disappointing is just the beginning we will continue to see shocking reports over the coming months and they're going to get worse and worse. ok wraps it up for this news outsole indeed from me for today stick around for updates on the top stories we're calling sushil be here with them in 30 minutes. choate's seemed wrong. rules just don't call. me.
6:27 am
yet to shape out just to come out of. an engagement equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. americans love by and.
6:28 am
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 housings men in the united states not just. question of the american dream the bigger question if you had the dream is for.
6:29 am
