just country me back, i just financial survival guy. when customers go buy, you reduce the price. now well, reduce the lower the best under cutting, but what's good for food market? for the global economy. ah, some stories of the week right here when are you into national? china dismisses as political hype. president biden's probe into the origins of covert or the lab league theory is not great and getting traction in the media which had rejected when the trump administration made the very same claim. elation of a nation bed of roses faces a barrel of criticism and enclosed space from the youth. after a passenger jet was forced to make an emergency devotion to mince sculptor, a hopes, bomb threat. but then an opposition activist on board was suddenly arrested.

and cities in america bank to track all the decisions that police funding off the crime rate. so the white house declares and epidemic of gun violence. ah . all right, so we're the week's top stories line up for year right now. welcome to the weekly on asi, international. i'm real research. china is once again refuting claims. the corona virus originated from one of the countries labs. it comes off to the us, said it's doubling down efforts to find the source of the pandemic. investigating for us is our team saskia taylor. remember donald trump and his administration's take on the corona virus. the chinese virus comes lou, the china virus calling chinese flu, china flu. there's enormous evidence that that's where this began. remember,

10 has a history of infecting the world, and they have a history of running sub standard laboratories. these are not the 1st times that we've had a world exposed to virus as a result of failures in a chinese lab. remember how his theory about the virus escaping from a lab with labeled racist and mad. a wall won't stop a virus, racism won't stop a virus. do your job? well, turns out now it's not racist, but a totally rational ferry. why? because it's not trump peddling it, all you have this year fresh in the oval office bite and actually shut down a trump para top secret operation to look into the origins of the pandemic. and specifically, whether the virus leaked from the woo hon institute of fi, rolla, g, q, his own altering off a report into the origins of the pandemic. with the lovely one of the top 2 theories, which is much more valid because why didn't i not trump, or to that?

i've no off the intelligence community to redouble their efforts to collect and analyze information that could bring us closer to a definitive conclusion. and to report back to me in 90 days, and just as quickly as biden decided that it's not racist wilma, but the kids summit and in the interests of public safety. so coincidently did others, a new york times drawn us also decided pro, incidentally to delete a previous tweet about the problematic nature of the lab, meek theory, and big peck, which month has been finding any covert conspiracy theories has coincidentally, decided to give the delete button a bit of a break in light of ongoing investigations into the origin of covered 19 and in consultation with public health experts, we will no longer remove the claim that covered 19 is men made or manufactured from

our apps. in fact, the only one who's actually stuck to its guns is china. lately. some people have played the old trick of political high on the origin, tracy of covered 19 in the world smear campaign and blame shifting. i'm making a come back. and the conspiracy theory of love league is resurfacing as cool that more transparency from basic counsel momentum as the woo, how meek theory begins to enter the mainstream. and people pick aside the w h o has decided to sit on the fence. only recently determining that the hypothesis was highly unlikely, but at the same time can't be entirely ruled out where the virus originated remains to be determined. but one thing is for sure, a theory can todd from conspiracy to credible as quickly as the establishment decides which on trump would probably tweak about if you know you thought twitter. but then again, we're talking about trump. he always finds a way. now everybody's agreeing that i was right when i very early on code one as

the source of covey 19, sometimes referred to as the china virus. to me was obvious from the beginning, but i was badly criticized as usual. now they are all saying he was right, thank you absolutely. vindicated. now remember facebook and others still won't allow people in my country to even contest suggest there may be an election might not be on the up and up. so they're very slow to issue a reprieve. so there must be a lot of evidence for them to go this far. this is a trump victory, and as was stated to bad, he can't speak as to social media as reprieve because they have not allowed him a reprieve from his prohibition on the platform. in the 1st place, a former president, i show that this is another example of the in seen world that we're living in. and

instead of people going to joe biden and say, wait a minute, or whoever is running to show today. why are you changing your mind? oh no, no. we're going to have an investigation into this. you just realize this. now, this is just come to you just, you're just made aware of this. dear god, what else have you just become aware of? i mean it's, it's really frightening. falling a huge diplomatic storm over the false devotion of a passenger playing to bella roofs of the country as president alexander lucas shanker has been defending the move, claiming no laws were broken. the ryan airplane was intercepted by a fighter jet and ordered to make an emergency landing a very hoax bomb threat. however, an opposition activist on board was then suddenly arrested, while the events spark protest in some european cities, members of the valley, russian diaspora riding alongside locals and supportive political prisoners. while

the roost though, is this, there's no political persecution in the country. the u. s. and the e u r, drawing up coordinated sanctions against various members of lucas shank over government, and both advise against flying through bell russian airspace. however, the critics question whether the west is in a position to lecture fellows as dante's eagerness down off now investigates this week, it seems there was no bigger scoundrel in the world than this man. alexander lucas shinkel, the president of bella ross, that's after a ryan f flight, had to make an emergency landing in minsk because of a bomb threat according to the bill of russian authorities. but there was no bomb. instead, quite conveniently for book shan't go. one of the most outspoken opposition activists roman pro, to savage, just so happened to be on board. and when he got arrested, the collective west didn't like it. not one bit. we strongly condemn the lucca

shanker regimes. brazen and shocking acts to divert a commercial flight in the rest. the journalist. look at saint luke's sancho has done as a disgrace. that's hard to suppose. here, the lights of more than 170 passengers were in danger. in order to arrest a journalist. the height of the plane on the attention know the passages is something that was completed and checked. and we really started discussing the implementation of the secretary over there. but i'm extensions now along with proto, savage, his girlfriend was arrested as well accused of dog st. bell, russian security officers essentially calling on lynch mobs to go get them. and one by one e, you, nations began to close the air space to barrows, national airline, while europe based carriers in turn refused to fly over the country to russia.

england has received, we have to understand that this will have severe consequences and we are looking into sanctions against the ation sector in but i was, was evelyn c, d c. d. we have decided to prohibit the bell russian airline from accessing european airports to invite europe and airlines and you not to fly over bell or russian territory to force landing a jet simply so you can extract a political thorn on the heard of except it really isn't because back in 2013, several countries closed off the space to the jet of bolivian president evil morality. which was grounded in vienna. simply because the us suspected edward snowden was on board, which he wasn't by the way. but america wanted him arrested so badly. it was willing to ground a president's personal plane. the bolivian president's claim was once forced to land. the president was taken out of the plain,

but nothing was said about that silence. in 2016 ukraine ground at a but a russian commercial jet. also arresting an opposition activist who was on board. but of course this time it's all different. so the e u has frozen its investment into bellows. the whole 3000000000 euros of it. there is a tendency in the west, unfortunately not to regard sanctions as inactive war when in fact it is inactive war. it's just a lower level of warfare before shooting war. this is particularly dangerous in the sense that if, if europe, europe in its allies of us, britain and get together in the rapid reaction, g 7 mechanism and put sanctions on beller ruse for instance. then you have a problem because this is really standing between russia and the european union and who's gonna, who's going to be the victim of this is going to be the people of bella. ruth,

one been a russian opposition figure in exile. took the idea of financial incentive if you like to a whole new level, offering 11000000 euros to anyone who arrests location go. just get clint eastwood on the case already. oh and yes. perhaps the grounding of the ryan jet wasn't exactly the sort of thing you'd expect to see in a democracy. remember, though, we are still talking about the man, the media, branded europe's last dictator. and who can blame him if he can play the game as well as his big and very democratic brother the us? that's an obvious point of hypocrisy in how this story is being framed. that's not to say that there is a debate regarding international law, whether a government scrambling its air force to ground commercial airliner over its air

space. and also your apprehension somebody from a commercial flight that's, that's a legitimate point of debate. however, to say that this is unprecedented, or to say that of this never happens in the west is a ridiculous proposition. and so we, this is time and time again. we see this every time the western media governments are they don't look at the wider context of what's going on. and if you look at the internal affairs of bell ruse and how much pressure is also being put to bear on the country from the outside, from these very powers that are condemning this act is a very different story. and it's a much wider discussion that needs to be had rapidly rising crime rates in america are a forcing some officials to rethink their will. will that big plans to defund the police or wednesday, what houses? folk person said gun violence was simply spiraling out of control. and the comments

came off, the 8 people were killed and a mass shooting in san jose. in california. we are suffering from an epidemic of gun violence in this country, both in mass shootings and in the lives that are being taken in daily gun violence that doesn't make national headlines. the calls to cut funding and even abolish whole police department started last year. of course, following the death of george floyd, an officer has since been convicted of his murder. more than 20 major u. s. cities have now already reduced the police budgets. i the i am for massive structural and transformational reform. we will not be increasing our police budget. we will be moving funding from the n y p b to youth initiatives and social services. many democratic party politicians

around the country heard the cry of the protesters, but now as crime surges, many of them are back tracking fatal shootings in minneapolis in 2021 have nearly doubled from last year. there have been 3 times as many carjackings. this is the very same city where george floyd killing last year sparked protests, crying defun, the police all over the country. but now in minneapolis, that's refund to police. big, overarching statements that we're going to be fonder, abolish, and dismantle the police department to get rid of all the officers. have an impact that needs to stop. it's unacceptable. we should be holding those perpetrators accountable for include safety, beyond policing, and it includes police. now the city council is increasing the police department budget by $6400000.00 after cutting it by 8000000 last year. in april of this year, there had been 166 percent more shootings in new york city than there were in april

of 2020 new york city mayor bill de blasio who wants pledge to cut the police budget by $1000000000.00. as now promise to build an entirely new police precinct in queens. this is something that for decades that community asked for, it was one or the other, which was the choice in 2020. we leaned into the investments in the young people. now thankfully, we have resources to address both these issues. and the 1st month of this year, the city of los angeles has seen an increase in shooting to the same time frame last year. now that democrat mayer, the same one who jumped on the de fund the police bandwagon, is calling for an increase in the police budget. the city council wants $250.00 more officers to be hired if you want to abolish the police. you're talking to the wrong there. now the mayor of st. louis is sticking to her gun despite having one of the highest murder rates in the country. not only does she want to defend the police, she also wants to shut down the jail. no human being should be cased for weeks and

months on end with little certainty of when and if they'll ever see their family again. we share a commitment to reducing harm in our communities and ending the cycles of trauma that have course far too many of our neighbors to be locked up in our cities jails . the number one reason why crime keeps going up is because of politicians. politicians keep doing everything they can to weaken the system to make the public more happy. and you're not asking the right questions which are, what is the point? what is the public doing in criminal aspects, which is calling the police lawfully act the way they do. and then the public is in there are an educated, ignorant, misguided eyes seeing this as police brutality. so the public really needs to step up to the plate. they need to come to the table. they need to be educated on why the police do what they do, need to understand laws. they need to understand department policies a year after the killing of george floyd and joe biden's police reform bill is not exactly a hit in congress. americans do not see eye to eye while crime is rising. outrage

about police brutality and killings is also sky. hi, caleb bobbin artsy, new york. 2 people have been killed and more than 20 wounded in a mass shooting outside a banquet hall in the u. s. city of miami, according to police, the incident took place at around midnight local time. while the car pulled up at the location and 3 identified people go out armed with assault weapons and hand guns. for then thought it firing indiscriminately at a crowd outside who had been attending a private concert at the venue. police described the shooting as a cowardly act and say they believe it was a targeted attack. meantime, a growing number of asian americans are buying firearms for the very 1st time. it's after a surgeon hate crimes. they're also joining lobby group to resist the push for stricter gun laws by the democratic party. there is

a real and imminent threat and we need to defend ourselves and our loved ones. we refused to be silent and we refused to be victims. again. rico bid for me last year. i'm the father of the next asian family. my wife is 100 percent chinese american and so it's my daughter and we were just walking down the street as we normally do to go to simple park. is it when administer group is folks that showed up in a pickup truck and yelled a bunch of racial floors that us them that out us out the window. and that just really got me thinking, you know, what, what would have happened if i hadn't been there? would they've been more aggressive, would they have followed my wife home and done something even worse? and so that really just kinda wanted to see, to me that you really do have to take personal protection into your own hands, especially through like the asian american community, which historically isn't known for don ownership or things of that nature.

scott k, it has since co founded the asian american and pacific islander gun owners group. it has thousands of followers on social media and encourages responsible ownership of firearms as well as resistance to policies seen as quote, to restrictive attacks on asian americans have jumped a 164 percent and major us cities. since the start of the pandemic in comparison to the same period last year, a new york san francisco and los angeles showed the biggest increases with hate crimes continuing to spike the scot. kane again says the u. s. gun culture has actually changed and the current administration needs to take that into account. i think that today's gun ownership

is not you know, the traditional, conservative beer to dude and tactical gear with tattoos and a mag, a, had its minorities and people of color. you know, the, by the ministrations and some of the proposals on the table would turn many of his constituents into criminals. overnight i view our mission as educating policy maker is more or less to what the realize that you know, gun ownership is changed. it's not the stereotypical letter a member anymore. we're coming from the perspective of, you know, liberal biden's supporters. i personally voted democrat and every election since 2004. and i think they're just the role need for this kind of a group in the, in the world that has a different perspective that we're used to hearing to, from our field to come here. one t international. apparently, william shakespeare is racism,

and it's only taken 5 or 600 years to understand this will be give me the details on shakespeare. just a moment. i driven by a dreamer shaped by those in me dares thing. we dare to ask me what we got to do is identify the threats that we have crazy foundation. let it be

an arms race is on often very dramatic development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and talk to me. the news. ah, it's good to have with us today. at a highly anticipated summit between vladimir putin and joe biden has finally been confirmed, and the meeting will take place in the swiss city of geneva, on the 16th of june. it will be the 1st time they have come face to face as precedence and as preparations get underway for the summit. let's just take a brief look at some of the key moments. oh, very close relationship over the past couple of months.

me you know, veteran report, you think he's a killer. i do so what price must he pay? oppression is going to pay. well, you'll see shortly when i was a child and we had arguments in the courtyard. we were saying fancies of me and sticks to you, and it's not just the children saying the meaning is very deep present by regret calling bottom mckellar. i know that the president gave a direct answer to a direct question which i want to invite president biden to continue our discussion . but on the condition, it's going to be live on line. we want to stable, predictable relationship on an artist. looks like it has more details about the upcoming summit, him what it might mean for geo politics. this meeting comes at

a time when the relationship between the 2 countries are rather strained. and it's not so much the diplomatic bodies that have been preparing this meeting, but rather the security body's the half of the security council's on both sides and projects are from russia. jake follow the national security adviser to joe biden, on the american side. and i think that is actually a demonstration of the degradation of public policy and diplomacy between the russian, the united states, the sort of commons at the american side has allowed itself to make and reason times remember of biting calling who tin killer. and i think an interesting detail about this whole thing is that the preparations for this meeting had started long before that comment. and in russia they weren't. that common was interpreted as, as an effort by one camp within the bite and administration. john didn't mind this

meeting. both sides understand very well that that relationship is indeed the worst time in, in its bilateral history. it's worse than it used to be in the cold war. simply because there is no framework that you know, keeps it from deteriorating even during the cold war time, there were many agreements doc prevented both sides from sort of piling up all onto one another. so his work sipping taught 2 generations for centuries. but it seems, there are still lessons to be learned about shakespeare. a london theater now, plans to the colonize his plays, claiming they are racist for linking whiteness to beauty. the globe theater has launched an anti racist shakespeare seminars for teachers. students and theater professionals designed to address problematic gender and racialized dynamics and activists claim the play right? promoted white as being positive and black as negative. you put the issue up for debate,

de colonizing shakespeare. maybe they ought to de colonize the bible. i think that doing is deliberate, the misunderstanding the use of the word fair and to mean beautiful. it doesn't have to mean it doesn't have to mean blonde. it doesn't have to mean white under suddenly a scribe racial value to it is just meaningless and sensitive and really going mad with a whole list, shakespeare. yes, he wrote and it's time and one can view it as being politically correct. but on the other hand, they are loaded words these days and you know that the, the, either of it's the fairies or whatever it was was always a light character. darkness is always the sign, the euro centric view of wickedness and evil. one has to have some balance, keep the historical perspective, but also be sensitive to the needs of young people who are listening and watching

this and may make that connection whether or not this is c gender. i don't, i'm complex to draw conclusions based on color is just over sensitivity run med. but the other point is that the whole of history never mind change there. but the whole history with you go back to just chill with dor when they've been having and go at in those days attitude with different. now we're not defending those attitudes. i think we have a better approach to all these issues and we, we recognize the underlying quality of people in a way that wasn't the case earlier. but we often say, well, we will abandon all literature and all poetry. the visa, much majority must again be follow up with a sensitivity and needs of the minorities in those audiences. and it is about changing the landscape and not having a narrative, simply because it's 600 years old. that would change bull wits rate. that was the norm 600 years ago. we're not that that, that is in a sense pos,

all the experience today. so what has to be actually senses is to everybody in the audience and not just have a view of the traditionalists that are always right there. and we are top stories a holiday over this past weekend. now old on the weekly, it's off the international life from oscar. now it's what hot past 3, sunday afternoon, we're back soon with more the me the the in motion and we will see more and the connection is going on. she did notice

that issue is giving me the legal team manages to get the case discussed at the united nations. and sweden begins to feel the international political pressure, especially from that in america, me promoting and respecting human rights for all women men, girls and boys is a core value and a central priority for the swedish government, but she in de la c sure. when he will get but as soon as possible. yes. because those have the new when you hit your heels, can do not call me and i swear to me on that. but i will go ahead and the they know they will see on one side of that i will get it but a so never control slick us me and that i see i can see it for yellow putting them set up. i see the saddles make a nice mostly cool, but i feel for the international, but i got the sorry, low process for your specific. i mean, it was a waste of in the scale up,

but it's one of the dollars paper. but now they see on the list that they were for if the question or the 1st 2 diplomatic asylum, there is, of course, no general international law obligation to recognize right of diplomatic asylum. and as you can put in this, you can find another way to congress on the in the end of the very manager in which government can only do 2 things additional the same day. there's an impromptu.
