the rules allow male pay as to why. why short but not the female athletes, a federation, spokes pass and admitted she didn't know the reason for this, but stress that this issue wasn't a priority ahead of the fix, no way has campaign to games the rule. 15 years. so the team short wiring is it, didn't the brett protest is also not the 1st time those points were, has caused control the seat. now, this year on a beach volleyball tournament and kat top here's what infuriated what else to what the key means for shots and trousers. joe hall, then back down and said it wasn't a requirement at the upcoming tokyo olympics. also, swimmers have been banned from wearing special caps, designed for people with fro, has styles and all through a blank class. that decision has been reviewed and only last week, a double paralympic wild champion, express disgust, often official complaint, how sprint briefs what to short. my colleague, voice to shake, disgust the rights of athletes with
3:15 am
a panel of guests. they should give them the money back and say, get the whole thing. we're going to exercise a bit of common sense flexibility and get in sync with designs guys. it's only just over 1516 years ago that then president of thief, soccer's governing organization. ready set black with encouraging female football as to a time skimpy clothes because he felt that it would make them more marketable. this is almost unthinkable to ask a women, a serious women sport contests to abide by laws. the rules that were drawn up some time ago when they weren't offensive, it's 2021, isn't it time that women were allowed to wear shorts instead of bikinis in sport. and she said this competition were well aware of the rules as you call them, have a ration where one room is because remember,
3:16 am
a precedent for all other schools. if you're going to data sort of thing. you got cooperation with james. it seems, but it's only for women, this change can prevent change. we need scenario. how many opportunities actually won't change as well room from there, stupid like this rule that can be not abide and actually well done to this brave women that finally, they show the sexism in their federation. they have to stop the thinking that to women's bodies are for the show, and they have something sexual with them. so the court is the problem to have a bikini, you know how much you have to move when you play football. the kid can with wow, you can show more than you want to show. what do you think they should definitely not listen. because you will suffer past and setup for other sports teams, state, post tons and then pines. funds recently they may be different. the
3:17 am
stunned. maybe it's not a standard. i don't think it's a stunt. i just think it, some bureaucrat, he's laying the law down to the fine print we've got to read. the news is a sexualization of women. whether they say or not is irrelevant is if you demand of a woman that you drafted in a bikini raga the sport scare, then that is only one way to interpret that. and it's, it's almost what it is preposterous now. almost is actually is preposterous to try to impose this perverse dress code on women in the 21st century was concerned about is all, but is it or the pool women's chains are complain? does that mean? but the rest of the chain is all quite happy. why became the bathrooms maybe at the side of the atmosphere buying in? they find it more comfortable to when i became the boss or did we ever go to know
3:18 am
maybe other women and we watch more? you know football players, if they play with a tight, you know. sure. so they show their chest. no, of course not. we wanted the eclipse to be comfortable with their plane. we want them to perform their best. still hands off as a threat, food functions, the us find the nave down at toms over the team to pipeline. we'll see what triggered dr. new ton of brake shoes. the oh, when i would show the wrong, why don't just don't the rules? yes. to see out the thing because the after an engagement equals the trail,
3:19 am
when so many find themselves, well, the part we choose to look for common ground. it's like you're watching down a street in a town and in the store and windows are negative. in depression, you tend to go into the store and buy those thoughts and take them home as if they're years. in mindfulness, you walk down the street, you still see the sort storefront with the negative thoughts, but you don't go in and buy those gosh. the, the, the, the ah, welcome by now let's head straight up south africa,
3:20 am
which is still reeling from its most devastating rights in decades. fox by the recent trailing former president jape, summa. and while the chaos has led to more than $200.00 death, thousands of arrests and an estimated $2000000000.00 in damage, local fear, the situation could even further deteriorate while we move on. let's take a quick look back at what's been happening in the country in recent weeks. the highway of death go for that's what it looks like down. yeah. if you carry on further down the road, because burnt out, recalls the roads due to everything. actually the burning way out of the burning the food. you
3:21 am
know, the at the moment you purchase this company here, there's one favorite. and this is the only place that now we're getting food from. we just stood out there to protect our families. while it backed up to this is that former president jacob's team was sentenced to 15 months in prison for contempt of court after he refused to appear before judicial inquiry. investigating corruption during his 9 year rule, fully managed to speak to zoom. a son who's been accused of instigating the recent violence and obligation, he denies the 5th of what has happened and i'm talking about the level of devastation and destruction, vandalism, to, to property. and just the want and looting is something that should not be celebrated, should be denounced, which i have done. and i'll continue to do so not being
3:22 am
labeled as one of the people wanted the instigators and not officially so much as making the other cars around social media commentary and some of the news networks, which is the photos, things on the trip. if you look at the basis of those allegations, it's completely baseless. you have 2nd video clips that have my voice and image which, which are you. but i'm taking taken out of context in relation to the video in its entirety and the message that i was trying to, to put across. so if you look at what i was saying, and i was saying if that was done at a time with the beginnings of it, but it happened. this was 3 days into, into what happened. we understand our country. so it was my way of trying to deal with the situation by 1st denouncing offense that can lead, denying my involvement in the real issue
3:23 am
as soon as the high levels of poverty. and then secondly, the lockdown, exacerbating the level of it. because now you've got more people falling into the bracket of unemployed and, and disparate and hungry, he's been charged and spent with out of a truck. and i find that very, very, very suspicious. and the reason i say that is let him out. let him go through the rigmarole in the processes of a child, whether you like him or not. who knows? you might, he might end up getting 15 years or not 15 months, but you know, you need to go through that process. can just be a process that's ignored of 2 years of resistance. it seems that fine, he washington has accepted that the nordstrom to gas pipeline to europe is going ahead that the u. s. and germany has agreed that dependence on russian energy poses
3:24 am
a security threat. or the 2 countries reached a deal providing support for ukraine, which is bypassed by the pipeline number seeking to ensure that the current gas transit pack between russia and ukraine remains in place here. will also receive 175000000 for the development of eco friendly infrastructure. the joint statement, which followed the agreement also contains some watts of warning for moscow. the united states and germany are steadfast, in their support for ukraine sovereignty territorial integrity, independence, and chosen european pass. the united states and germany are united in their determination to hold, rush her to account for its aggression and malign activities by imposing costs to our sanctions. and other tools just a few weeks ago, it was announced that the construction phase of no stream to would be completed next month. after that, it takes around 3 months for certification and safety checks to be carried out,
3:25 am
and then the gas can start flowing all the way from siberia, under the baltic sea and into germany, through this new pipeline. the u. s. saying that they're not going to stand in the way openly of the project is one thing we've certainly heard all coming out on wednesday is that, well, they're still not particularly happy about nord stream to you told this committee that you believed to nordstrom to pipeline would have disastrous effects on u. s. national security. that it would have disastrous effects on european security by making them subject to economic and energy blackmail from russia, and that it would enrich and power to carry out that blackmail. do you continue to believe that i do sen? it's clearly a very political issue in the united states as far as rusher is concerned. bo, strictly business attempts to portray us as an aggressor and the country,
3:26 am
carrying out malicious activities have long been a hallmark of fruits of folks. threats towards russia are groundless and useless. we have repeatedly stressed that the north swim too and other russian export pipelines are business arrangements with the countries that buy our gas a, with this deal between berlin and washington, it seems that the nor stream to should start providing death at some point before the end of 2021 will economist, jock cross, mom says this could be a sign of fighting conceding, but he had no cause to play. i think you got to look at the context of the recent meetings and discussions between biden and europeans, particularly jeremy. you know, the germans, the europeans, considered us position on the global tax, and not taxing us tech companies. i think this is probably a quid pro quo to some extent of biden can feeding what as everyone knows,
3:27 am
it's already a done deal and allowing the germans to continue and get the cheaper gas. you got to understand that this whole sanctions over a gas began nordstrom to began under trump, when the us had a lot of natural gas and prices were falling. and you know, the industry, oil industry, which trump was running a interference for their solution, was to make the europeans force them to buy us gas. that would cause prices arise in the us as well as more volume sales in europe. but the problem was, the gas was just too much more expensive and the europeans just weighted it out. now you got to know the done deal and they got to cover it up somehow. you know, bio was coming back with his tax concessions and they position a whole thing with regard to ukraine to make it look like the u. s. is still being tough and isn't considered in russia. and finally,
3:28 am
let's talk about how germany is scrambling to overcome the aftermath of the was flooding in western europe in years. hundreds are still missing, as hope said, the survivors will be found in the rubble of the flash floods struck quest in germany. part of belgian, the netherlands, and luxembourg in job and the death toll is it almost $200.00 people with more expected to be identified? critics and blame the death from deficiencies in the storm warning system. now the german government has marked 400000000 euros in immediate aid for the victims. and in an alarming escalation, sewage has been mixing with drinking water. has waves systems have been disrupted by the floods we heard from the job and hygienist who's raised his concerns about the threat of poisoning and the to the my dad. we have never had such a situation in germany, at least not in this extreme. we don't have a clean separation between drinking water and sewage at the moment. the water that
3:29 am
flow through the streets in the villages was a mixture of extra mint and rainwater determination is very high. we do not know what is left in the flood zones. don't inhale anything and don't swallow anything because there are also environmental toxins and things like that. of course, the danger of illnesses or poisoning is great. we have had the safest drinking water in the whole world, almost sterile. that's over now. the big question is, what comes out of the water pipes of the houses if they are still standing? the people will certainly be supplied with water canisters, bottles and bottles, water. all this has to be brought in by trucks. that is also a huge problem because we hardly have any roads that are passable, slow the, the situation is improving day by day. but in the beginning, it was certainly a big problem. while it's goodbye for me on the whole team here. moscow who can't see, but who are watching hot next to boom, boston into the latest encrypted current. sit back and enjoy me.
