12:02 pm
a blast from the past. america is back. back for watson. when did it ever leave? whatever it is that it's coming back to from as unclear. at every point along the way, we're going to make it clear that united states is back. and democracies of the world are standing together to tackle the toughest challenges and the issues that matter most to our future. well, that's good. suddenly, again, i can't remember them ever leaving, but if you are coming back to things you never left, then why the heck not sign things you've already signed or reverse, like atlantic charter building on the commitments and aspirations that are 80 years ago. the firms are ongoing commitment to sustaining our enduring values and defending them against new and old challenges. so they're defending democracy, defending nato, defending trade, which american britain have done admirably if
12:03 pm
a tad violently but that's the rule. they will now seek to combat cyber threats. climate change and the pandemic. there's so much to do. and what better way to start than with jeezy jukes. so the prime minister, we are both very i'm not sure i'm not going to be sent from that. i'm going to disagree or lead or else perhaps what may be construed as new is that button seems hell bent on returning it's all to the glory days of the cold war. and has, you've been clear the united states will respond in a robust and meaningful way and the russian government engages and harmful activities. we've already demonstrated that, except we've had the same thing in various forms. for now on a century, trump said the same things. so what did they mean? what is it that they say?
12:04 pm
if it isn't russia aids? yes, china, they can't say it out loud. no one's ready yet, but it's there between the lines. we will focus on ensuring that market democracies not china or anyone else. right? the 21st century rules around trade and technology, and we will continue to pursue the goal of a europe whole free and at peace. biden once to resurrect an old monster, the cold war with voss standing armies with vase military spending. a vase blog to crush the competition and the competition, and he's in russia. the competition is china, which america still doesn't have an answer for. well ahead of the g 7 summit, the chairman of the us joint chiefs of staff singled out china and russia as the biggest global threats. but daniel mcadams, executive director of the ron poll peace institute, says they're just trying to invent another renovation. well,
12:05 pm
i wonder if i fallen asleep and waking up and woken up in 1978 or something, you know it's, it's, it's unbelievable that we need to sign a new atlantic lines. what is the atlantic? we have no idea what the atlantic is, the atlantic has been certainly since the end of the cold war, european countries incapable of developing their own independent foreign and domestic and economic policy, basically blindly following the united states into places like ghana, stan, and syria in libya and miss adventure after misadventure. china is the big enemy of the defense secretary austin said we have to start acting like china is the and i mean, not just thinking like they are the enemy and this is how it works. this is how the u. s. military industrial complex works, you invent an enemy where it's a global war on terrorism, or the global fight against cobit or the global fight against china. you invent these bogeyman, and then you spend hundreds and hundreds of billions and trillions of dollars that go into the pockets of well connected companies. well connected,
12:06 pm
think tanks in the washington beltway, and that's what keeps the machine going with the machine is going to end. because the american economy is about to collapse, its teetering on the edge of collapse. well, there's a heavy security presence of the summit in cornwall. and concerns have been raised over the high number of unvaccinated offices around 5000 of them police in the event. and one police chief as warn they could become super spreaders obispo hasn't stopped the u. k. prime minister from choosing this moment to praise the force for its work during the pendant. i bet the policing restrictions in that way was not something you ever dreamt you will be doing. but you did it because you knew it was how we are going to protect the n h. s. and save lives for something that speaking the police federation annual calling from abilene named policing on the pressure of those within the 4th. a claim that he and home secretary principal sell them on the front line during a pandemic. totally unprotected. the government,
12:07 pm
small words became lame actions and the result is my colleagues do feel a sense, a deep sense of the trial. just this week we have thousands of colleagues who all over the country coming together to replace the g 7. so me to call the police officers from those very communities where the indian variance of the virus is thriving. we have young police officers who by age alone, will not have been vaccinated. how can not be ranked $6500.00 offices from every police force in the country? a part of the g 7 ring the still dealing with diplomat small over the world. meaning the summit could become a hot bed of covey, with offices acting as potential super spreaders. certainly an issue that needs to be considered whether or not there's any risk of a super spread. talked event occurring around the g 7. so there are people from all over the world. they include people from countries where the rights of covey to very different from allison, with various different versions of
12:08 pm
a virus causing the problems. last year that were 89 police officer deck involving cove it highlighting why police representative are so eager for their members to get their jobs if they're going to continue to put themselves at risk front line officers on the cell. so things tend to be at the young end of the scale, certainly enlarge numbers, and therefore they will not yet have reached the point where they will all be vaccinated with the g 7 operation. now the way there are fears in some courses, the damage has already been done and it leaves government officials hoping that the summit doesn't result in a surgeon code the cases. and particularly among those they've saw, protecting some of the world's most powerful people, east ali, off the u. k. london. the lack of police vaccinations isn't the only pandemic related criticism being led to the british governments door. a us health secretary 60, excuse me, the u. k. health secretary, mr. not hancock,
12:09 pm
he's been branded now. quote, a liar trying to rewrite history. it's after he deny nationwide shortages of personal protective equipment while speaking before a parliamentary inquiry into the cobra crisis. i don't deny it all the way which challenges in individual areas. there was never a national shortage of p p because of the action that we took. but hancock was being scrutinized over the government's handling of the 1st stages of the pandemic . it stands accused of failing to ensure a sufficient stockpiles of p. p e at hospitals ultimately endangering the lives of n h. s star. some health workers where even photographs making their own gowns out of bin bags. and the government is also accused of chaotic. p. p. e procurements that cost billions extra to the state budget. however, the authorities defend the cobra policies the chairperson of the case. dr. association told us that now greater distrust of the n h s. i think it's very hard
12:10 pm
for me to just don't have trust in my control if in the same breath need also denies the fact that they will problems with getting to the front long another p. p was adequate. that actually doesn't seem to have been responsible for many at the death and the fact that he also says that he values an off and he recognizes they've made new cases, the ultimate sacrifice. but he's part of the government which has recommended a one not moving to one percent pay voice in in the u. k. government's cove and policies have repeatedly drawn criticism. of course, when the opposition labor party, one of its members told us the health ministers just trying to mask failures during the fun demik. whether it's in action or incompetent. the government policy throughout this and dammit because directly contributed to tens of thousands of deaths, one of the worst death tolls in the world. and in the face of all this might, hancock is, is or out there in front of that committee, acting like
12:11 pm
a schoolboy whose dog has eaten his homework and he's blaming scientific, blaming the public does anything but take responsibility for, for, for this himself. he's saying of p p, he's saying that the say no evidence that the lack of p p 4 for an extra stuff directly contributed to death. it was coming out with advice and information, saying that there was no evidence that mosque, wherein prevented covered cases. you have to ask you, so why would they coming out saying things that were so patiently wrong at the time? it's because they didn't have the p. p for the public. angry parents in new york have laughed out at elite schools in the city for allegedly indoctrinating that children with woke, provide the use instead of teach them how to think he is kellum often takes it looks like some parents are fed up with critical race theory being taught in school, mobile billboards have been set up outside of new york city. private schools,
12:12 pm
where parents are calling out the woke curriculum, taught on their money. the truck sign says teach how to think. not what to think. woke school speak out and diversity, not indoctrination. this campaign was organized by a group of parents who say they are concerned about what their children are being taught in recent years, and you author doxey, has emerged to tell us cause dividing our communities based and immutable characteristics such as race, ethnicity, gender, and sexual orientation. as a result of the core tennis of high quality education, unite and all children and families through love and appreciation for learning and community spirit have gone by the wayside. schools should unite us not divide us. many of these parents say they are not opposed to an anti racist or pro diversity curriculum, but they say critical race theory is going a bit too far and causing more problems than it solves. we have a group of concerned parents who believe there is a better way to promote diversity and includes
12:13 pm
a teacher at lead and independent schools in new york city, without sacrificing quality to cation for all students. to save our schools, administrators must ensure academic rigor and intellectual integrity requirements of any core curriculum. while respect and parents, as the primary moral educators of the children, parents aren't the only ones. there's an english teacher in new jersey at a private school who quit her job saying that critical race theory is racist. i'm resigning from a job that i love over the past few years. the school has embraced in ideology that is damaging to our students, intellectual and emotional growth and ideology that require students to see themselves not as individuals, but as representatives of either an oppressor or oppressed group and by professional opinion as an educator, the school is failing to encourage healthy habits of mind essential for growth, a growing number of parents and teachers objects to the teaching of critical race theory in school. this is yet another conflict and
12:14 pm
a time of already deep divisions in the united states of america. well, how will this all ultimately be resolved? well, it looks like it'll be up to our children to settle this. i actually think that critical race, pearson would be allowed in our schools to teach or children you teach him at home and not in the school bell is no need for that is what is doing is teaching kids how to have them. what control is out of place has no place in fact at all, and in order to change. but we got this when i was with teachers teach this particular correctly go back to the base cation standards that we had before. and i was, we want to change the situation, we must fight hard and we must do it from our home. that was our church is the way we think we need to do it. so at this particular point, we have got the points back and pushed back car a special police unit has been
12:15 pm
disbanded in the german city of frankfort members. all suspected of having shared far right content in a chat group. peter oliver has more on this. this involves 17 actual front line and foreigner and current front line members of the special task force or s k in front. for now, that's pretty much the equivalent of a swat team in the united states or the special firearms command in the united kingdom. it also involves 3 senior offices who apparently knew what was going on and didn't act what it's understood is that this group charts were sharing fall right extremist messaging as well as nazi symbols. now it's prompted the interior minister of the state of hassle, where frankfort lies to despond. the unit saying that it needed to be over hold completely the unacceptable misconduct of several employees, as well as the turning away of immediate superiors and the special task force of
12:16 pm
frankfort made its complete dissolution necessary. nothing that can remain as it was, even those who look the other way and thus failed to fulfil their direct, superior ro must expect disciplinary consequences. this isn't the 1st time that we've seen fall right extremist activity. and i the police or the military here in germany, there's been a number of incidents over the last couple of years. i, the i run to restructuring under way of special tactical police unit in have. both they,
12:17 pm
when they all restructured, will be firmly under the microscope as well as will police forces and the military across germany. after these claims these allegations of fall right extremism in the ranks. we heard a bit earlier from benjamin jonesborough who represents a police union in berlin. he's had offices are being unfairly talkative and it's putting huge pressure on them. nurses mission, where does this bill police in some german states have received reports, right wing extremist ideas. it's something that's happening in society and when not isolated from it. there are $26000.00 employees in the berlin police and they include supporters of right wing extremist ideas. it's like alcoholism or drug addiction police. a human beings just like everyone else is. the main thing is how we deal with it. how we recognize such people, what steps your storage, he's taking. i think it's obvious that there should be no extremist ideology, no matter what kind. it has no place in the police force. all this, of course,
12:18 pm
has already affected people, just like these claims that we are all far right extremis about. unfortunately, there is a tendency in the public to generalize. if one person is far right than immediately all 26000 employees. this of course takes coal on police offices and my colleagues do a great job. they sometimes work for 60 or 70 hours a week. they encounter incredible stress, and yet they carry out their gcs professionally. and despite this, the next day, they criticize by politicians. it's an attitude on the political level that makes people in lauren forestman want to find other jobs. russia as a media and communications regulator has published a report detailing how social media giants are breaking the law. it follows a large scale inspection earlier in the program. i got all the details from ortiz saskia taylor. we know that the internet is a pace. it's really hard to control, but fears are growing that it's become out of control recently lacking sufficient
12:19 pm
regulation. and because of that, russia's media watchdog launch to review that looked into what saturn, especially social media platforms, are or are not, as it turns out, doing to make the it's not a safe place. now of course, in the past we've seen how often harmful content lingers online on checks, pay just how the live stream of the christ church massacre circulated on facebook for hours afterwards. but the statistics from this report really expose how well negligent these platforms have been. you know, we're talking about tow pornography pro drug pro suicide content terrace material and i'm talking thousands and thousands of incidence. there is so much, but just as an example for 6 years, twitter kept up $6000.00 posts of that kind, seemingly taking no regulatory steps and even when it did, it moved at a glacial pace. facebook, for example,
12:20 pm
on average to $105.00 days to remove these kinds of posts. in the meantime, you, of course have under age vulnerable people exposed to all of this back in march, actually rushes media watchdog warn twitter of a total ban unless it got this illegal content under control. and as a warning step that actually slowed the site's traffic which ultimately pushed it to remove a lot of the not all of the content after hundreds of post op simply it's imposed financial penalties, including, for example, 23000000 rouble fine for twitter. 43000000 the facebook. so the conclusion here that's coming out is that only by punishing these platforms by threatening them with, with bonds and with financial loss is action taken, which is a terrifying fort. why on these platforms themselves incentivized to tackle illegal and harmful content? you know, the, the, and john may be violating the law by keeping certain content up. but as i
12:21 pm
understand, the russian authorities are also riled by what's been taken down. not a well exactly. so on the one hand, we've got twittering, co dragging their feet when it comes to st. child pornography. but the report claims that on the other hand, when it comes to sensory content of especially russian media and of course r t, they are quick and happy to press that delete button 29 times. for example, by google and youtube alone. i can't count how many times i've talked about this, whether it's about youtube bonding and taking down our sister channel auto arbuckle, even my own material. 2 months ago i did a life stream dedicated to 60 years since the fast pass and fluid space. i spoke to cosmo about life on the international space station. it was fun, it was homeless and it will bond with no reason, given that the review really does lay by how problematic these platforms are. all they knowingly not protecting people are they simply overwhelmed by the extent of harmful content and why they turning
12:22 pm
a blind eye to often an eagle content that causes emotional and physical often fake to home. but then arbitrarily censoring content simply contributes to diversity of voices. and it's clear that russia feels that it can only see a change if it forces a change. because these platforms at this stage crane you don't feel any sense of responsibility before by users. we spoke with a technology expert bill knew who think the social media johns are disregarding local laws in many of the countries where they operate. to large extent, these large platforms failed there, above the law they have chosen to comply with various different privacy laws in various different jurisdictions. they've also kind of thumb the nose up us up of the content restrictions rail. i think that the, the fines that are being given, they can just brush off the really thing that has actually brought to them. the severity with which some different jurisdictions are actually growing. fed up with
12:23 pm
them. some of the bands that they faced in australia, there was a bond under the sharing of news content. there's been a threat to facebook that would be bad from sharing private data between europe and america. and now in russia and other countries, more and more jurisdictions are standing up to them saying, i'm sorry, you're not buying the law, you're not doing what we require in terms of content moderation. i mean, barrier many areas such as some of the stuff that take down there, showing double standards. well, the euro 2020 football tournament will be starting in just a few hours, rushes among the host countries with 7 games being held in saint petersburg. and that's where our correspondent alexia shasky. now reports from euro 2020 is a football tournament, stretching across the 4 corners of the continent and rushes northern capital st. petersburg has an extended role to play, while other nations have struggled to get funds back into the grounds. due to
12:24 pm
corporate 19, russia host that 50 percent of stadiums for the majority of its domestic season and for the euro 2020 st. petersburg is ready to make some noise. there is a serious football vibe to the so called venice of the north. it is the home to venice, champions of russia for the last 3 season. what place could be better as one of the whole cities for the euros, even more fans will be impressed with what's available in the city. the opportunities in st. petersburg, rich culture is a truly wonderful place with endless possibilities, especially in summer coach and entertainment. yes, especially in summer, very impressive. 2018 world cup and russia managed to sway officials so much that this stadium here in st. petersburg will also host the way for champions league final next year, and there's other cities across the continent failed to meet the anti coby 19 criteria. this city stepped right up,
12:25 pm
only wembley in london will host more euro 2020 fixtures than this stadium here in st. petersburg, i know that you a 5 doing everything possible to ensure that the european championship is a success particular attention has been paid to the media and accreditation for journalists, it's extremely difficult to organize such a large scale international event. given the situation in the world today, i can tell you that i have not come across such a constructive attitude from all in both parties. for a long time. we cannot hide from the fact that life and sport i a very different world. now, you are 2022 taking place in 20. 21 is the perfect reminder of how the pandemic has impacted on europe. but this tournament will be the litmus test for you a far too. and what's been a listless yet half for football. russia kept it stadiums open to a large percentage of fans throughout the season. and this was a rather unpopular decision at 1st, but gradually turned into pride because we talking about real fans here,
12:26 pm
not cardboard cutouts or pre recorded fake noise. now you a fan has granted st. petersburg stadium a 50 percent capacity quarter for the 7 games of euro 2020. and we're talking about 30000 live fans at this very ground. an agreement is also in place to allow traveling funds from abroad without any of these requirements if they have a ticket, a fan id and a negative b c r test. so russia is anything for you with open restaurants, bars and on. just remember to keep the strict anti corbet measure, but that is the price many fans more than willing to pay. it's an amazing opportunity that we got and expectedly because some european countries could not host matches. and we always con and they can, we can, are you happy with an organization? it's great when we were the world cup, things were slower. here,
12:27 pm
everything is better. i wish every one felt the same way. though. denmark opened it stadiums to local fans, but not allowing any russian fans inside and russia is to play denmark in copenhagen. and even before ball has been kicked, politics is already making headlines. first ukraine teams kit stage with political message is then as thereby johnny officials blocking accreditation for our top comment sites in russia because the fuse armenian roots football just wants to pass around all this mess for rest assured when the tournament kicks off from one care. here and in the other 10 host cities, this is the moment many have been waiting for and hopefully at turning point for sport. i'm politics like yourself to be reporting from st. petersburg. and while the primary focus now was on the euro's ca, todd is getting ready to host the 2022 football world. cup of tea is konstantin
12:28 pm
ross, golf visited the country to see how the preparations are going. you can watch his full special report a bit later this evening on off to you to national for now though he's a quick preview. the one of the persian goes wealthiest country is, has spend billions of dollars on state of the art stadiums. well look at this stadium is really taking shape. you can see the bowl and most of the stands now when we were here a little bit over a year ago, at the same construction site, it was just the foundation in a few metal structures. so it seems that time wise, this idea to use shipping containers as building blocks has definitely paid off. i mean, they're easy to assemble and easy to dismantle, just like playing with lego. for the 1st time in a world cup, hey street, the stadium will be billed from shipping containers and what's more, it will be completely dismantled after the tournament.
12:29 pm
no. right, that's the program for this one here on the national. thank you for sharing some good friday with us here in moscow. nearly half past 7, friday night union o'neill at the desk and a half and i was time. hope you can join us. oh, i use look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given it by human beings, except when the shorter that conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence. the point obviously is to great truck rather than fear i would take on various jobs
12:30 pm
with artificial intelligence. real, somebody with a robot must protect this phone existence with the method boom bought the one business show you can't afford to mit ambridge bar in washington coming up. kinda in the united states have touched base on a host of economic issues, including trade and investment. straight ahead we discussed the future of cooperation between the world to largest economy. then we analyze the latest surgeon inflation as consumer prices have spike to their highest.
