with no prospects a new poll suggests 40 percent of. the .

very warm welcome to. european leaders have. put a u.s. proposal to rights to. move up during an e.u. summit just this week. if you mean for me questioning patient protection here is not the profit to lead us to more vaccines and that's a vaccines i have made it clear that i do not believe that the waving of peyton's is a solution to make that seems available to more people this is an idea mooted by the by i didn't ministration last week they said you know what we can do is we can wave with the paint and with vaccines which will allow the vaccine production to be

ramped up in other countries because the portuguese who hadn't created that vaccine would then be able to produce it it's an idea that the world health organization has welcomed but generally. welcoming this to all the could germany be left out on its own in the cold or with 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 over the weekend so he's here to be determined where he will land on this particular issue he seemed to be incensed infuriated when he was pressed at 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. i ask you the european press and almost psychological question when

a year ago we europeans launched accessed accelerator 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 mark on though had his own criticism specifically for the u.s. when it comes to the export ban on covert vaccines and on essential ingredients needed by european produces to make the vaccine here drop them is what he demanded . i call it very clearly only. states to win the export bans not only on 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 battens. just about this in context has exported around 200000000 doses of vaccine is around the world at the same time

the white house has pretty much put a blanket ban on any could get vaccines to leaving it she was and that comes at a time when this seems to be this growing frustration this tension in the e.u. over the idea that basically the boy he didn't administration is not pushing forward its own agenda as if it's the one the needing to charge all the way through the code health crisis and some might be questioning whether in the future when this is. the story that will be painted is that this is a. covert war that america won. what's really happened. you know a new poll in france suggests 40 percent of nurses there they want to change their profession they complain of working conditions small salaries and a lack of recognition and perspective we spoke to. who says discontent among various health workers had already well been growing for quite some time. you know

when i read in the newspapers that 40 percent of nurses want to change that jumps i'm terrified they leave and want something else not because of the covert crisis is prostration has been building up over several decades and they have already expressed that by going out into the streets and demonstrating that those protests were violently suppressed in france the police often not too forceful repressive methods you saw what happened to the yellow vests and the demonstrations of medical personnel also brutally suppressed johns on and special forces clearly these in their powers so when the crisis hits employees who are already tired and devastated by then demanded recognition of their work and a pay rise but it never happened it was like somebody poured ice cold water on the french health care system which was ranked 3rd or 5th best in the world has turned out to be a fiction 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 their profession doesn't allow them to experience real career development or even prospects for that matter nearly 2 thirds consider their job as thankless and more than 92 percent believe their health crisis has shown the role and duties of nurses must be reviewed the issue of salaries are a big concern as well more than 75 percent of working nurses earn less than the national average for the normas pressure on the health care system during the pandemic salaries became one of the main issues for widespread protests among workers last year the government promised to spend an additional $8000000000.00 euros to boost wagers but they could go again so if your authority is have failed medical workers. we were called heroes during the 1st wave but now they are demanding 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 me 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. use he learns form a weightlifter tracy lumberjacks claims female athletes are being told to be quiet over any issues they have about transgender people participating in a 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 carriage every step of the way even to this day still 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 aspirate 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 transgendered athlete who's had to been a sense of place tossed around for that long even with having to lower it the load of mouth is still male 18 times the amount the average female is a reason why in sport we too have male and female character and by allowing this to happen it's just earlier in the lines issues were 1st raised when transgender athlete laurel hubbard was allowed to compete as a woman before transitioning and 20th a teen hubbard took part in men's weightlifting competitions and later in 2015 she

was permitted to take part in the olympics after the international olympic committee released rules for transgender athletes allowing them to compete as women now anyone who transitions from female to male is allowed to compete with other males without restrictions but those who transition from male to female to face conditions firstly their gender status has to be confirmed as female and not changed over the last 4 years that us to a level of testosterone as well has to be below 10 for at least 12 months again tracy lumberjacks i think the rules should be evolving as the sport is changing the needs to be more research tests. looking into the facts and making sure that everyone is on the same pay whether or not the rules of santa that's why nice to be discussed these roles were i think developed in 2013 or 2013 now 2021 so i feel like the rules should be evolving

as the author has as. people of all because people are coming out now war transgendered and i think that we just need to keep up with the times why should i compete when i'm never going to be able to when because the best is what i'm up against and i think it if there is there between sorts or have women dropping out of sports which is not what we want we want to increase in women playing sport. when it comes to a relations with russia the e.u. seems to be sending out rather mixed signals slovakia's foreign minister says it's time for cooperation with moscow to be fixed but the czech prime minister has suggested that all member states should be expelling at least one russian diplomat shedding light on this artie's a saskia taylor spoke a bit earlier with my colleague neil harvey. if you're trying to understand even policy towards russia in recent days good luck because for

a block his premise is unity and cooperation that's the real splintering here on monday a foreign minister came out in the century said that brussels needs to stop pushing ties with russia to an irreparable brink we're certainly in a difficult phase of our relationship with russia 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 supports the sentiment says it's time to mend fences with russia so there's one camp that's looking to reap rebuild news that the kremlin welcomes but on the other hand another camp has emerged and its feature 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 weapons step 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 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 1st off 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 still strip 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 russia hysteria has to stop this is the czech president himself why would he want to undermine his own country for that state and he was actually accused of treason so like i said good luck trying to get to the bottom. what it what what is that the e.u. wants from russia is it donald or is it a deterioration of ties individual states understandably i think at times looking

after their individual interest but of course they're all part of this union as they've been any kind of unifying message to come out of brussels well i think 1st off we need to talk about what russia's position is because russia has made to very clear from the beginning that it's always open to dialogue but when prague expelled the russian diplomats when talk of sanctions in march it did speak out pretty strongly it said that this was all an e.u. state to quote please that 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 we'll discuss russia with which shone the country relations a not improving what we just heard from the row 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 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. a protest has been held outside tokyo's national olympic stadium against this summer's games which you do to be held in that city it's less than 3 months before the event gets underway following last year's postponement due to the pandemic demonstrators marched around the show you know at the same time as a test event was being held inside with around $400.00 athletes online petition in japan calling for the olympics to be canceled as already collected more than 200000 signatures since being launched on friday it all comes as japan has just extended a state of emergency in tokyo and other areas until at least the end of the month this is due to a surge in covert cases our recent poll shows almost 60 percent of those quizzed wants the games to be called off or just over

a 3rd think they should still go ahead and all those around the 5th think there shouldn't be any spectators so we go to the streets to gauge reaction. in my opinion this is because the lives and livelihoods of many people have been neglected for the sake of their lympics of course the pandemic masses and for their lympics they although sleepers the homeless people and the people in their apartment complexes they were in the uk did from here there are many problems like that happening i believe that there lympics must be stopped immediately and must be abolished. it's a celebration of nationalism i just criminon saree and exclusionary event it's also very near liberal ultra capitalist event where only a small percentage of people will benefit in order to make money and we will all be cut off that's why i'm against such an event. israeli police have stormed the mosque in jerusalem after 3 days of brutal clashes in the

areas that have left hundreds injured. police say they entered the temple mount compound on monday morning after thousands of palestinians gathered there overnight many armed with rocks and makeshift weapons and some attacked a checkpoint and has been building up in recent days overstructured access to the holy site and israel plans to evict palestinians from part of east jerusalem clashes in the area have led to some alarming incidence of warning you may find the following video disturbing a jewish driver of a car rammed into a palestinian protested near the old city by the protester was seen getting to his feet and limping away another driver claimed his car had been set upon by a mob and while trying to escape he lost control of the vehicle after that the protesters surrounded the car trying to attack the driver and passengers with rocks before an armed policeman arrived on the scene. well in the meanwhile the u.n.

secretary general antonio ted has urged the israeli government to hold demolitions of palestinian homes and evictions although israel says the land seizures are vital for security so here are some of the scenes from jerusalem over the last 24 hours. 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 local 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 stunned today coming in our direction there are water

bottles being thrown there are glass bottles being rocks being thrown out it really is a game of people getting forward and then with treating and searching for what 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 has been halted and now the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has stated he will not allow strict elements to riot in should be 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 a 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 it to be delayed and the other big story we've been watching is what's going to happen with the force in fiction are some 70 palestinians. from their homes in the arab israeli neighborhood of shared 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 streets and provoke the situation the fact that the palestinian president mahmoud abbas indefinitely postponed palestinian elections that was supposed to happen later this month has also added to tensions and he blames the israelis on that so far on this violence one israeli youngster has been killed and one palestinian youngster has been killed so they throwing over barricades tensions soaring high at the moment

the wait looks at a far from over policia r.t. jerusalem. a recent u.s. jobs report paints a rather grim picture of the country's unemployment and some of blame bidens relief package for holding back any chance of an improvement despite its good intentions are to use egos down office when assessing the political divisions over how to or jumpstart the country's economy when boyden became president democrat side 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 but maybe i have it wrong if you double check that your

website here one search for us 266 is correct yeah 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 wouldn't 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 on a 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 trump pales in comparison to recent presidents not because to me it's bail 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 at 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 efforts dr bell 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 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 1000 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 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 of what should be a stronger jobs markets $1.00 step policymakers should take now is ending a $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 than they earned working a great many of kentucky aunts 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 a huge shortage of labor for business and it's and it's harming business binds using the political chaos in this country to pass twilley and trillions of spending bills that are a complete unnecessary waste of money the policies of the bottom instruction 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. i back to developments in jerusalem now where hamas has reportedly fired several rockets into israel after their deadline passed for israeli police to withdraw from temple mount the israeli parliament the knesset. it has reportedly been evacuated it's the holy month of ramadan right now so we've had days of clashes at some of the holiest

sites in jerusalem let's let's bring in danny down on the former representative of israel to the united nations good to see you today do you think as we understand now the latest news coming in hamas is now were reportedly attacking israel do you think this could have been avoided if perhaps israel had taken a less hardline approach over the last few days to the unrest in jerusalem. in the last 24 hours of the very early government. he. served in the beginning that he did not love our common ground the. only muslim later that day these. jews who wanted to celebrate. instead it was. a long while so that's and this is a provocative question you know if you go all planned in advance it must continue

he begins its new routes ago. announce not have the election. in he started. using again. if you don't supported that all over again the leader of the palestinian. negotiator but mr mr mr dunham i'm sorry you choose the word insight and you also used the word provocative just within the last 24 hours more than $300.00 palestinians have reportedly been injured including 14 children one child is dead the palestinian red crescent says 7 people at least are now in a critical condition t.j. think in any way israeli police have used excessive force absolutely not let's think about why those people when did you call this who are. innocent jews that actually used the rocks on the temple mount so the only side of the western wall and when you think about freedom of religion freedom for riots or violence yes

you know how muslims do really christians and jews did an acceptable there would be of religion only to muslims in the old city of jerusalem we have to guarantee that there is freedom for all religions and if someone is actually exercising violence against others we will use force law allows everybody see them over the engine but you don't think that on that so when it comes to the use of force or excessive force i mean you you said the palestinians are using rocks the i.d.f. are using machine guns. so we're not using your machine as we have a other means to do with the demonstrations we are trying to minimize the casualties but yes if you show the audience the big chill when a carload of jewish family will almost lynched on their way to bring on the rest of the police have to come into your brain and same for those people so it's not about

people who are actually being wounded. these fundamental vision those are people or using rocks and moral terms in order to do us harm it is jewels who are coming to bring jewels and it will be a geisha of the police force to protect everybody in the old city the provocation if you can from incitement of the leader of the palestinian i'm calling here to on the side allow anybody to. peacefully continue to live in july when you don't hear the same voices coming from the palestinian leader well mr downer we are hearing arch international wishing lots of pictures of the violence happening in various parts of jerusalem cars on the west bank so you asked if we are showing the pictures we are showing the pictures absolutely but does it does it does it concern you at all i mean you know israel's biggest ally in the west that the united states is urging was actually asking people to exercise restraint and caution and to deescalate the situation don't you think both sides should be responsible for

deescalating the situation i mean ok you've got israel you've got the palestinians as well but it should be both sides trying to find some sort of equal status here don't you think so i agree with you on the 1st part we do want to see the escalation we are saying to and we act accordingly and i mentioned we did in the last 24 hours but you cannot call it both sides don't have both sides who you have a terrorist organisation like hamas only 2 minutes ago i don't know rockets into jewels on an innocent these very civilians and you. useful consolation is that you do not use that language of all the sites and i tell you a very serious. hamas will actually continue but that i will suit is the local media as we would be totally not allowed them it was challenging our willingness and i can assure you that we have the means to retaliate. to divide this hamas

leader has seen twice before sending rockets into our cities might suggest that a point of deescalation may still be rather distant in the future danny danon we appreciate you coming on r.t. international the former israeli ambassador to the united nations thank you for your time and thank you for your insight thank you very much and i thank you for joining us and i see international wrapping up your news program here for this monday we're back soon with more on. i'm not sure if that's you know what you're going underground the team and i will be back for a brand new season.
