as strategy will be successful, very critical of time, time to sit down and talk the top headlines of the week here. what i see at the taliban makes sweeping gains in afghanistan. joe biden admit the group is at its strongest in decades. the u. s. president is still taking american boots off the ground by the end of next month. no mission accomplished. i was accomplished in that we gather scott. some of the lawn in terrorism is not emanating from that part of just having things of self harm in belgium as migrant go to extremes in the fight for a silent. although authorities and fist, they will not be blackmail and driven grounds to us the right to try again to extra julian us on. however, one of the, with the blow, as oldest friends, believes washington's attendance will ultimately fail. this appeal is an attempt

to pro long inevitable. inevitable is the freedom of duty. ah, welcome to the weekly here. when are you international? i'm grow research. i live in moscow here, where highlighting the top stories of the day and the week. so 16 people were killed and dozens more injured and fighting between the african army and the taliban. this happening in the city of kandahar on saturday. all of this, according to local officials, it comes as the fighting has been intensifying across the country with taliban making big territorial gains. and while the us president joe biden has conceded the group is now at its strongest in 2 decades, he still defending the decision to pull out american troops. your view with making this decision for the last 20 years worth that we win for 2

reasons. one to can you blame him off the 20 long years and no victory? anyone would struggle to answer. why? so the $47000.00 civilians could be killed, so that only half the population can live in poverty. so the country could lie and ruins faced with ugly reality. is it any wonder the bite and decided it was fine me time to come home? i will much send another generation america to war and i can stand with no reasonable expectation of achieving the different outcome. oh, there was no mission accomplished. i was accomplished in that we get to scott some and widen, and terrorism is not emanating from that part of the we achieved those objectives.

well, not quite. all carnita might be gone, but the ton of bon is ascendant. advancing so quickly that and now claims to control 85 percent of off catalyst on the countries us and nato allies having jumped ship, its people have been left to fend for themselves or calling them. they've got everyone who's worried about how long the uncertainty will continue. no one is doing business, the markets, and the people that work there have been badly affected. business has collapsed because there is no stability before when the u. s. didn't plans withdraw, things were stable, but the instability is increased since the last. i mean, i'm very clear the yes had contracts with market owners here and we used to purchase from them that withdraw will affect our business. we can buy any goods because there are transportation problems. some have already fled to neighboring pouches just on and iran, but that might not be an option for long. the ton of our control, 2 thirds of the border with tajikistan on and recently captured,

the crossing to iran, meaning of the on many escape routes left. an especially dangerous prospect for those who worked with foreign armies favoring for their lives there. now cooling on washington to get them out of the monday, gave us a recommendation to save. not only my life, my family, and i did all done with really when we don't have an issue we have on now we want to take, i need to sit on the did you call yourself humanitarians, but what kind of humanitarian saw you? you left me here after i worked 10 years for you. russia is also worried that the fighting will spill over into its territory. so it's arched restraint promised to g, cuz tom, back up on the board and maintains dialogue with the taliban. and the country that

created this whole mess just up and left. oh i the i up to left in the dead of night without what apparently the washington claims that local officials knew that withdrawal was imminent. the very next day looters was seen plundering a background based funny american souvenirs left behind with this hasty exit parallel to being drawn with another of the us. as for, for was vietnam wage

a war on terror, realize that the tree is impossible in could deal with your enemy found in your allies and get the hell out of that. well, let's just hope the carpool doesn't fall as quickly as south vietnam did. to buy didn't at least has faith. is a tale bond take over that gas that now inevitable? no. it is known. is that what the goal was? 20 years ago? that devastation, no plan for long lasting peace. i hope that the government wouldn't crumble as soon as the u. s. left. how many more countries will be put through this vicious cycle before us finally, lines. it's lesson. united states is a far very global empire. we are absolutely totally addicted to war. our economy cannot survive unless we are either actively engaged in war or

harry for more faith. and so there's obvious parallels between afghanistan and vietnam. when i was in vietnam, i was only met mom. so i was seeing the rapid disintegration of american involvement in vietnam. so i was seeing in the homicides the suicides, the ramp, and heroin addiction shit out among the american soldiers within our own unit. obviously, at that point, in my view of 7071, we were questioning, why were we ever in vietnam? you know, because a lot of was thought that we were there to preserve peace and democracy and in the united states government. but that was all a lie. everything was a lie. and the same thing is true for the war in afghanistan. you're going to see a lot of very rack and ask them better, is probably committing suicide. there's a lot of that we're going to drink and drugs themselves in death because they're going to ask themselves, what's the point of me ever being in rack or hundreds

of undocumented migrants or on a hunger strike in brussels and a bit too, should we say a press the authorities to grant them asylum. some of even sown their mouth shut to show they have no say. on wednesday government officials met with protesters though no agreement was reached. we understand the union though, representing the migrant, says some progress was made. officials, now a fighting economic exploitation is one of their top priorities. they see that there are a 150000 living here illegally. and the $200.00 people that decide to stop eating should be regularized individually. what would be the results? a week later you get 202020000 people who would do exactly the same. around a 1000000 migraines enter the e u in 2015 and it will blame for terrorist to finish shop rising. find some migraines, who have been in belgium for more than a decade. now they say they're asylum appeal still have not been process. are these

charlotte do when he reports from brussel indigo, long term migrants across brussels, taking action into their own hands and resorting in some extent to extreme measures to demand their rights. he was signed attempts and sewing up their own lips just to the shocking moves the migrants have taken to show just how serious they are. well, we've been have 3 people have needed urgent care. some for men and women taking part in this protest have been in the country for more than a decade. and they say that they have simply had enough of government in action. there's also criticism that brussels and even europe as a whole, have been so hesitant and imposing any kind of rooms for their situation, leaving them no choice. i have started this and i have to continue to the n. i've

lost 15 kilos, but i am ready to lose another 15 or 20 just to be legalized. some other people risk their lives even more. my buddy carry me recently swallowed a razor blade. he had to get an emergency operation for other people. so the lips always actions of one go to show that we really need the documents. i am the nipple guy, but my child is not nibbling. they don't understand the poly. kennedy speaking the police and day. so does the things. so my child is, is property of belgium does give me work for me, then i can walk and i can have to put my child. the belgian government says it won't change policy. it's frustrating. we're to help people as much as possible to get their dos is to be treated as fast as possible. but of course not every undocumented person, not every person who is here can stay in belgium. the hunger strike is not going to

help issue of undocumented migrants isn't just confined here in belgium, in front of also being processed stage to call attention to the thousands who are also in a similar situation. the me i the but is a regular is ation a real solution in some of the countries of course, the e, u, spain, portugal and italy, that's the route that's been pursued. however, that too has caused problems. italy is trying to grant access to around 600000 undocumented migrants, but the process has been fruit with allegations that permits a being issued arbitrarily. we did have collected regular possession 9. that is

only meant you flux of illegal immigrants, doesn't work for political action. is there old responsibilities of the government or citizens of this country? if our government gives it opens for more actions like this for a new wave of immigrants coming to our country, sent you the picture. let's together then your situation or her oracles and go over these wrongest ortiz all refusing to budge those supporting the protesters say that off the 6 weeks, the situation is now very desperate. then documented people who have been in hunger strike, especially those 10. and one of our campuses have reached you been point where they can irreversibly put the health at great risk. we grabbed that look a sore, just remain deaf to their requests, which will continue to support, stay faithful to all we're humanist commitments and our sense of justice. yet, despite all of the focus on migration, at an in new level,

there is still no coherent strategy, which many think will only make the problem worse. the problem is, is huge. it is without any doubt, the biggest problem facing belgium and the european union right now. every single domain is under enormous pressure because of mass migration. i'm talking about public safety policing and migratory services, but also about things like education, housing, and the judicial system. if we decide to ignore the rules because people go on hunger strikes, never setting a horrible example. the migration law in belgium is not strict at all. so if your application to get red residence papers is rejected, that means you, you really don't deserve them. and you have to go hope the problem is that the belgian government isn't doing enough to make sure that these illegal migrants who

have their application regret your objectives effectively go hope. in many countries, they are, they are put on a plane back to their country of origin. but in belgium, they just receive a paper that says they have to return home a former police officer, maybe new york's next mail. after winning the democratic nomination, he was picked despite a year of black lives matter protests whose state dames are of course, to the fund the police. now when the city crime is soaring with the new york state governor, andrew cuomo declaring a gun violence disaster emergency. now the new may oral candidate is eric adams. he served in the police force for 22 years. he's currently the brooklyn barbara president at the forefront of his platform as a commitment to combating gun crime. he supports police reform, however, he is quite firmly against the funding, the police, if black lives is really matter, it can only be against police abuse and has to be against the violence that's

sitting apart our communities. people want to feel safe. right now. they don't feel safe. crime is happening all around them. shootings are up. robberies are up, homelessness is up. they see in the subway. they don't feel safe in some ways. they see it out in the streets, in their homes, in the neighborhoods. and they want to feel safe. so this gentleman ran on a platform of public safety and making people feel safe in their resume with them. and that's it. you know, the, to find the police movement has been a large failure. demonizing and attacking cops has been a failure and people are ready for change and hopefully this is the capital is to some sort of change. but it's not just new york polling shows concerns about violent crime or a 4 year high nation wide, with homicide rates, climbing all across the country. chicago's man has off the president for help off to the city stores. bloodiest weekend over independence day or more than a 100 people was shot. a policeman, nozik ark, again says the public are demanding action. leaders are not listening. viruses,

right? and people's faces. you can put all the crime statistics out there. say your crime is going down. you can have all the feel good moments, but people know what they see, they know be here. and you can deny that. so people definitely want to change. they want some sort of action to be taken. they want to feel safe. that's what's all about public safety. now you're not going to convince someone that just finished watching someone get robbed or know about shooting is going on in the neighborhood that they're safe. they want something done 6 months off of the u. s. last as bid to have whistleblower julian s. orange extra, i had a u. k. court has granted washington the right to appeal. the judges reported to have agreed with 3 of the 5 justifications. the u. s. submitted. while the, by the ministration is apparently now prepared to let us on any prison sentence in his australian homeland, his partner claims here already has that right fella,

morris this week also gave her reaction to the granting of the appeal from outside the court. i was able to speak to julian now about the decision and you know, it's mixed because on the one hand it's been 6 months and we haven't had any news. so it's like an endless purgatory. but at the same time it doesn't here. and julian's very unwell, he's happy when, when he went with our eldest this morning. and so it's not representative when i see him because obviously it's a, it's a one rest fight. he get off, but even bell marsh prison is a horrible place. he won his case in january. why even in prison? why is he even being prostituted? there is no legal case against him. all. there is an indictment based on life. washington wants a song to face charges of hacking and espionage which could land him. a sentence of

a 175 years. in january, a british judge ruled against the tradition of a mental health issues. in 2019, he was forcibly removed by police. the ecuadorian embassy in london after quito culminated his 7 year asylum. which east editor in chief, a christian, the samson says that she at length of the entire process is shameful. well, it's a great disappointment for julian sounds, and for all of this is continuing. one would hope that the united kingdom courts would to recognize how ridiculous this case is and not to grant the appeal. this means that this will drag, go on now for some time, for a prisoners to have to wait in a prison cell for 6 months for half a year. just to get a decision of whether the appeal is allowed to to his opponents or not is rages. this decision comes only

a week after it is revealed that the indictment against julian does not have a leg to stand on. the key with and says retracted his testimony and says basically that testament which was cited by the business judge numerous times as truthful allegation doesn't hold true. it is a fabrication and the americans now know if they're still continuing on this truck . this appeal is an attempt to pro long the inevitable. inevitable is the freedom of julian assault. if he does not get his freedom, it is such a low to our society and what we believe in that it is almost amount to turning off the light. so this must come to an end, and i can fence in my bones that it will be coming soon. meanwhile,

australian m. p. 's erosion, president biden, to drop the u. s. government extradition appeal. the straining citizens want juliet, us on to be free, is treatment violates for convention against torture and its persecution threatens journalists worldwide. we were back in just a moment. let me, ah, ah, ah, people with diabetes or number raises, whether it's not adequately managed or that they have some immune problem. then their risk of infections and something like the kind of 19 pandemic

was very bad news. the people diabetes. and we consider it as one of the very high risk situations in terms of people being in the summer solutions where we focus on the solutions. not so much. the problem, stacy, right. we are joined by jeff booth author of the price of tomorrow. join me every thursday on the alex simon show when i was speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport business. i'm show business. i'll see you then in the going

921 p. m, here in moscow, the pfizer and madonna, kobe vaccines, can potentially cause heart inflammation in people. that's the conclusion of the european medicines agency, which has recommended adding the condition to the list of possible side effects. it's the 2nd time, the 5, the job was made headlines this week. it's off to be israeli. health minister reported that its efficacy had dropped by almost a 3rd early studies had given it an efficacy rate of 94 percent. for the latest data show, the figure had fallen by roughly 30 percent. however, the report claims has filled provides good enough protection against various illnesses. as of now, the 5 that bio tech job has been approved for food or emergency use in more than 100 countries in regions worldwide. it also received emergency validation from the w h o. with the end of last year, we discussed the new findings with the head of the vaccination program. at the telo vive medical center. we have data which shows even if the immunity of 2

doses of defy their job, even if team units is waning, it's winging very, very, very slowly. it is possible at some point, everybody will need another dose. obviously we're worried about the drop. the delta vary and has already been studied in britain and elsewhere, and defies vaccine has been found to be less effective against it, but not as less effective as seen in our preliminary data. so we will have to watch it closely as the data unfolds. the full size of vaccination requires to show us like most coven injections, but a growing vaccine hesitancy. trend has seen people refusing to get a 2nd dose and the job in capital. for example, nearly one in 6 vaccination appointments are counselled or postponed in recent weeks. that's according to the german red cross, which also suggested a 30 euro find for those failing to show up. at the head of the organization's berlin branch says vaccine absenteeism is increasing. in our experience,

every day, 5 to 10 percent of those who have appointments do not attend in the arena bell and area alone around 3000 people have vaccinated every day. while the rest of the centers around $15000.00 vaccinations take place every day of those 3 files and every day, $150.00 total people do not attend. that is quite a lot if you consider the amount of effort that goes into this 1st. this is not fair to those who would like to make an appointment for the vaccination, but cannot do this due to the lack of free time slots. and secondly, it's complete waste of all resources, vaccine, pharmacists, and daughters. therefore, i'm calling for those who do not attend their appointments about counseling them to be given a fine for absenteeism. my all know, while it's either going home or going rome, these are life pictures for you right now. outside wembley stadium, the euro 2020 final between england and italy is just over half an hour away. that

game, of course, happening in london in a mood on the city right now is something else that's cross live now to watch either shoddy or it was actually in the midst of it all for a shot you nation awaits. you think the home advantage can help while tonight is the night of the year 2020 final, the mash between england and italy is just one moment. so way now i'm here in a pop in west london so close to that wembley stadium where the match is taking place in the atmosphere inside this pub is incredible. people have been singing is coming home for the last 30 minutes or so. in fact, all around london, i've been totally booked up in hurricane for the winning goal. in the semi final, i've managed to secure a seat and this public directory behind me. but many people i've spoken to have been carrying up throughout the morning to get that table on that seat to watch the

months of school service. huge head of the football match, the italian haven't lost a single game. in fact, you 3 matches only, conceding 10 goals. in that time, so this is definitely not going to be an easy ride, but the pundits are all suggest that england all going to bring it home tonight. of course you've got a great while the lights are dialing show if you name it, we have certainly gotten calls. harry cain, the captain of the england team really lead in the way, showing a lot of confidence in mobile. ready, a very confident football team for england and what we're seeing now both, not just the players that have the confidence, but also the funds have the confidence tonight as well. quite a bit. no, that's not gonna lie by most of it and we're going to win tonight. give it to you. went to england in the 92 minute extra time, darling has been brilliant. talking on a great job with a voice. i think we've got

a team that wants to type england and one thing then. yes, it is coming home coming time. definitely. yeah. well speaking ahead of the match, the manager gallery southgate has said, we've come so far. we're here at the final and he just needs doesn't want to disappoint the choice. he will be coming home tonight and that is again from a hurricane. the captain yesterday he said, this is all about the fans, the reception here in the united, even the so it's so brilliant and it shows how big an occasion this really is. i mean, really is a huge occasion what we've seen as the entire nation behind the statistics are showing that of course, in fact, 44000000 people will be watching on television tonight, another 2000000 in pubs across the nation as well, which is the biggest t v viewing audience for any of the last 1216 months now

has been so grueling for people of course with the kinds of 19 content. because this is a moment to unite the nation is a moment of people celebrating excited, a moment of hope for anger. and, and we have also mentioned that the vs vary association has said that $7100000.00 point will be guzzle during tonight much. but do we really blame the funds of schools? england hasn't won the men's team hasn't wanted serious competition series tournament since 196655 years ago. so for many people across england tonight there's a strong feeling that tonight it's coming home. all right, thank you for that. good luck. i. we're showing your life features right now from the heart of italy getting get out for the big final match tonight in italy versus england. i was going to warn, shot a, we've got a bit of a mixer in the army and use him about 5050 england, italy,
