me the the see in the me this, we can protest this class with police and central powers, with water cannon fodder. angry demonstrates thousands across the country and take the rallying against the government plan. to make cobit 900 tosses, mandatory printer in public places as those infection cases are still on the right . look about to send the other big stories abroad in the week just go on. a chilling effect told me the freedom is the reaction to a new law proposed by the u. k. government, which could threaten investigative journalists with prison if they exposed state secrets.

the shocking thing devastation in china and the weak from what's been called the worst flooding in a 1000 years. it called dozens of death, white tut infrastructure bridge and whether causing problems elsewhere to a grave. systematic failure, the german government slammed for not doing enough to prevent last week's deadly flooding. there, despite previous warnings, the devastations claimed almost $200.00 lives and caused damage amounting to billions of year. ah . so they go to your most go good morning, 9. a one is most go time. welcome to the week off international with me, kevin. oh, in bringing you. what's happening? right. as you heard,

i'm looking back at some of the headlines of the last 7 days. parish police have 5 watered candidate people that protesting against plans for mandatory health passes in france. thousands gathered in the capital led to vent their frustrations of a covey restrictions. the news to me the we've had figures from the ministry of the interior that said there were a 161000 individuals who decided to send onto the street to protest these new restrictions. 11000 of those were here in paris where you saw those tensions with that water cannon the inside at the protesters know so kick,

ass being used. so i just wanna explain a little bit about what the health passes. this is something this all ready in use has been and you since wednesday. and basically, what it means is places like cultural centers and museums at the moment, if there were more than 50 individuals inside, then to get inside you have to show you fully vaccinated against cozy 19, all that you have got a negative p. c all, and teach and test what the parliament is doing at the moment is looking at the bill that's expected to be passed this weekend, which will extend that restriction. now the minute for labor has also given him into the youth stating that not only will those individuals want to access thoughts carefully, the restaurant means the house power. so to work is old. so the establishment and if they're not in compliance with that, they could be suspended without pay, they will not be able to remain to avoid having to go straight to dismiss. so we

are creating a new procedure for suspending the employment contract without remuneration and ended as soon as the employee comply. so only what people furious about the fact that just a few months ago, present macro and had said that they would be no introduction of an obligatory health pulse. and that's exactly now what's happening. but also they feel that the idea that allure is going to be amended to be able to suspend employees without the right to any pay has really made them to see through whole resume. it's a cinema. these employees can be dismissed if they do not have a health path, either an anti gen test or both components of the vaccination and needed, and the letter of which should have been administered during the week before. they taught me. this is completely unacceptable. what is happening in france right now is absolutely unbelievable. 2 years ago we could not have imagined this at the moment. we are in a situation where people want to go to work and they are told me if you can't,

because you haven't been vaccinated. and this is despite the fact that for many years, we have lived more or less on the principle of freedom, equality and fraternity. and now it's all over the government. so this is what it believe is the way forward, tackles are conveyed pandemic because now the government says is in the middle of a way of that. and it's saying that the need to ramp up the number on the back to nations. we know that health workers will need to be fascinated by the middle september the work. and again, there are still many people vaccinated people as well. the i spoken to who said that this is about the freedom, the right of individuals to choose what happens to their bodies and it's going on so long to isn't it, to those been violent pushback elsewhere in europe, against covered policies as well. the what you're seeing there from

greece, housing, posing a mandatory vaccination program which could introduce to some groups including health work is where the test is reportedly used petrol bombs during the unrest. it comes to like 45 percent of the country's population already being inoculated against rona virus. the u. k. capital has also seen a my 7 station under the slogan, a world wide rally for freedom. not everyone shared the same message. the scuffles broke out between campaigners themselves. the protest happened just days after the major cobra restrictions were listed. locked up for reporting, the fade facing journalist if a proposed british law is passed, reporters in their sources could be treated like spies and publishing government secrets could see them jailed for up to 14 years to senior correspondent. at this story, a journalists can do as much harm to britain as a foreign spot to argues the british government in this 66 page proposal,

which erases the line between investigative journalism whistle blowing and spies are all the same under the proposed new secret law. although there are differences in the mechanics of and motivations behind espionage and unauthorized disclosure offenses, there are cases where an authorized disclosure maybe as or more serious in terms of intent and or damage. what's more, the legislation seeks to remove with her blue protections, even if what they leaked is in the public interest. and stead it advisors would be whistleblowers to, to go and talk to their boss if they have a moral issue with something that they're doing rather than reveal it to the public that the government is engaged in something immoral or illegal trays is an interesting question. what if it's their boss that's doing something immoral like the health secretary and leaks video kissing a coworker after he'd obliged millions to abide by his own strict social

distancing measures. i understand the enormous sacrifices that everybody in this country has made that you have made. and those of us who make these rules have got to stick by them. and that's why i've got to resign. officially, this new beefed up version of the secrecy. little has nothing to do with the resignation of hancock officially. but it would have made the scandal very nearly impossible. see, any journalist who shared this video shared anything that they received problem with blue, could face a sentence of more than a decade behind bars. due to the new way of defining espionage, including the obtaining sensitive information, as well as pass it on journalists, whom are simply working. their stories can potentially face up to 14 years in prison by receiving some secret information. there's much more to it. aside from

the harsh sentences and the least than the data bases of potential threats, there are special powers that the government wants to give itself the power to punish and restrict individuals, be the journalists or foreign spas. if the government doesn't have enough evidence to jail them, there may be a strong intelligence case to suggest as an individual is engaging hostile activity, but to limited evidence that could be openly used to support criminal prosecution. the civil order could include a range of restrictive and preventative measures, including measures to prevent an individual associating with certain people or from visiting specified sensitive locations. currently, these proposals are being polished off at the foreign office but could soon be in parliament make no mistake. these, these new secrets he lou would give the most authors area and regimes in the world a run for their money, a pass whistle blowing, and investigative journalism as we know within the u. k. dead. this is one of

the biggest wide ranging attacks on breaths. freedom, perhaps, since since democracy came to britain, the definitions in the report are very old indeed. in fact, with journalism doesn't come up once in the 66 page report itself. fundamental to the 36 page report is that journalists can be more dangerous than spun life. obviously, the u. s. is prosecuting fe julian assigned to the as jack this own secretary of secretary is backing a consultation document and suggest that journalists that much worse than spies supplies after all, can work for one government or another government or one actor jones. if they publish the material, everyone can see it's a journalist has to be done. that is miss the level of logic and deduction that is being used here by the british government in

a raising freedoms and rights of the free press here in this country that have been that have been created and modified over centuries. so that's, that's quite how dangerous the official secrets act before looks to be suffering some pretty scary and dramatic weather around doesn't lead devastating floods in central china with at least 50 killed and over 300000 forced to flee their homes. and what said to been the heaviest rains in a millennium, the while some of the flooding has at least now receded whole streets in some cities

with turned into rivers. authorities are ramping up rescue and recovery operations . many people still reported missing. of flooding is claimed, nearly $200.00 lives in western europe to another. 300 are accounted for this weekend's. meantime, the opposition in germany's calling at the interior minister to quit over it. fleming impersonally, for the country being unprepared for the deluge. the floods of coals damage estimated more than 2000000000 euro volunteers have been trying their best to help clear, the devastation cripple the infrastructure. coupled with huge pulse, a deb raise made it really difficult to move around for life to return to even some semblance of normality. now, when one of the politicians in climate experts can, the government knew of the impending catastrophe in advance, but they failed. they say to warning citizens on the other officials claim that the worst areas were alerted. either way, it's led many to us when so badly wrong. i thought you were a correspondent found is before the floods struck west in germany,

belgium looks in bergen benevolence, the copernicus, satellites that make part of the european float awareness system detected problems with on their way for the region. people in our viola, one of the worst effected towns in germany, have been critical of the warnings, or lack thereof that were given or done can do that. no one was expecting it. the warning came too late. a public announcement, 5 or 6 hours in advance, would have helped to say some essential belongings. and other problem is that many elderly people didn't even understand what was going on if they didn't hear anything about it. and then they're also the foreigners. everything should have been organized better. people should have gone door to door or received a warning by phone history. what happened with the opinions of experts analyzing what happened to this information? you can just refer to the fact that people were informed by text message. you have to imagine how much information is being dumped on people every day already. but then they say, yes, we sent out messages instead of targeting people on the spot and perhaps getting

people out of their homes in particularly hot places. visiting the scene of utter devastation caused by the flooding and western germany, john langler merkle pledged more efforts to tackle the challenges posed by climate change. quickly, chavez, which is the germany, is a country that can overcome this financially. germany is a strong country and we will oppose this force of nature in the short term, but also in the medium and long term to a policy that takes nature and climate into accounts more than we have done in recent years. there had been warnings from the weather in 2016 the river, far bursted banks, causing damage to bridges and other infrastructure. they were repaired, but nothing was done to protect against future high waters. it's not a secret that streets in bridges and all these dams are not in a good condition and nobody's investing in it. and they're just like waiting till something happens again, 5 years ago we had a duration similar to this one and

a bridge in the near broke and they just repaired it like it's okay for now. and nothing happens till the end. and now the bridge is gone again, this part of germany is no stranger to flooding, which banks the questions. why were the authorities not better prepared for what nature would throw out them this time? and we'll lessons be learned from this tragedy piece, role of a c and cologne germany. we spoke an m p for germany's left party who told us the government's repeatedly broken his promises when it comes to emergency systems checks. we are witnessing a fatal or a monumental sailor on different levels as you know, we have to germany, a federal system. so it's not easy to identify where the problems aware that the, the federal government is 3. they, they do that last year to check their allow system and this was the

failure and renown to do it again this year and to repair it. and they didn't do so . no, they are not doing this for next year. it seems that the warning systems and following evacuations, in other countries were a better organized than germany, which is the highest because the high developed country. but there's a problem in that system and we have to check it and we have to make it better. there are political responsibilities. people are not sitting there with of the big party did they reside in the week this made headlines to story about a woman's beach handled team in a spot, a hot water after the choice of outfit, in this case, a fee pair of shorts. no less after the european hand bull federation forbidden

though from wearing anything other than the regulation briefs, the move raised questions about the sexual is ation of women sport. we were across it out. these poly boys took a candid look this summer. oh sure. oh, lack thereof, in the case of the norwegian speech handball team, which has been fined 1700 years for wearing shorts in a match recently instead of the regulation, teeny tiny breed. and while the old, all the 3 rules mean that the norwegian beach space are obliged to strip down apparently the athlete called, and lizzy, a brain has been told to hush or what too short, a recent competition in the u. k. i k. and she said that, no, i didn't consider bad binding, had to 2021 is getting confusing. you got transgender wait listed. abilene

pick female power limby and being told to dress more appropriately and female handle has being pun, they're trying to dress more comfortably in the case has been the region, the team actually off the european handles that are ration for permission for playing. sure, but the federation said no, they did it anyway. they was last with a fine. i have been given a good reason. they just the telling us the, this is the room, the man get to play like this. the man rules state the breed, the women chunk like short can finish 10 centimeters above the kneecap while the women are obliged to have them on display maintenance. please press to allied while running around doing strenuous exercise in fronted spect cases i'm being watched on tv. good possibly have anything

to do with the canada and viewers and watching the sport when you got it. be awesome because it's always some art very can people at the university of alabama actually analyze the beach volleyball at the 2411. they found that 20 percent of the camera shot were tight shot of play is checked. wow. and the center of that camera raises some of you. so the research has concluded the visual coverage of the game, confirm the sex and sexuality. we use not only to promote the me, but to sell the sport, to viewers around the world. i love my head. something tells me that wouldn't be the case if the male players was mine. he needs

a thought for a sunday morning. still the. com. thanks for watching, by the way, inflation is soaring in the u. s. for joe biden says, don't worry, the majority of americans being hit in the pocket by raising prices might know things were across it, and so much more after the break. ah ah, so what we try to do is really to leverage on the knowledge of this partners from developed countries and they offer free of charge the services support little was so we app this is sort of the broker 12 teams from developing and emerging countries to get access to space because clearly one of the issues, one of the show stoppers is the cost of the launch in the operation.

the driven by drain shaped by center. the in me dares thing. we dare to ask me. oh my good morning for most goes kevin. oh, in here. so does mention that with inflation in the us getting a 13 year high, people are rapidly filling the pinch. they're

a poll published this week says 88 percent of americans are worried about the disproportionate increase in living costs. president biden bow claims. it's just a glitch. and it certainly seems to be having little impact on his spending plans. our experts believe in the data shows that most of the price increases we seen are, were expected and expected to be temporary. nobody suggestion is unchecked inflation on the way, no serious economy. let's check that no one checked inflation claim. now if you have a car, it costs you twice as much to run it as it did last year. your prices have double your daily breakfast now comes with an 8 percent price. as the cost of milk, bacon and fruit have gone up. on top of that, you've got consumer prices that have hit their highest amount since 2008. now, despite the presence assurances, america's working families already being hard hit by the pandemic are starting to

feel the pinch. the groceries are definitely and also the rents are also going up and just household items, making serious progress to ensure that it works the way it's supposed to work for the good of the american people. while construction material is out of this world, somebody's making some good money, and i think it's just joe biden. we could help families in small businesses, whether the ups and downs or as the economy recovers. i don't buy anything when asked me what the, wherever me give it says nowadays i, i truly, truly don't look, we brought this economy back from the brink. now biden refuses to hear those voices . perhaps you listen to those within his own party labor market tightness, behavior of housing, markets, and asset prices all rising in a more considering way than i worried a few months ago. this raises my degree of concern overheating scenario. there are huge uncertainties, but the focus of concern now should be on overheating. and if that's not enough to change the president's mind on the economy, perhaps this comparison is the wake up call. he needs. the u. s. isn't the very bad

position from a long term point of view. i don't see how these can and well, when we're running now, budget deficits, something like 15 percent of g d p. this is beginning to look a little bit like a latin american country printing and spending money like there is no tomorrow, as pretty clearly got people concerned. biden gave the excuse that the spending was necessary to tamp down inflation, which was ridiculous out of nothing in common. the, you can't stop the consequences of monetary printing by doing even more monetary printing, which is what it means to spend this level of money. and the fact is that biden, and all of his advisors and the political party that he represents, are big spenders, and they want to spend more money. they think that the u. s. government can go into infinite amounts of that, that there's no limits whatsoever. they really believe this by mature of the problems are just temporary, but perhaps it's

a bit like the pandemic and the economic aftermath. it's a bigger problem than was 1st thought. but it seems to be a problem that biden's apparently incapable of recognizing caleb mop and r t new york. let me wrap up this program by telling you, but if the news happening from here in russia today, russia celebrating navy day with parades around the country, marking the services through the 25th anniversary, 15000 personnel will be taking part in the event. so most $300.00 pieces of military hardware on show 2 pages per kids. well, naturally, i guess one of the main cities putting on a parade, and that's where a corresponding coasting rose called. got an early look at the preparations for us . we're right in the heart of st. petersburg on the me a river and we're approaching a worship that. c has become a fixture of this naval parade. it's called corvette story, which can be translated as steadfast or resolute.

rushing corvettes or frigates by native classification are relatively small, but vast warships that are designed to protect coastal waters or other vessels. for instance, story kit was sent to the gulf of aiden in 2019 to scored if the merchant ships and make sure that we're not attack by them all the pirates. truth be told, the ships armament is not something last at the store gate and the rest of the class can to fight against aircraft submarines and other ships that have artillery guns. but it's main and the most for middle weapon is right here in the launching pad of rushes, latest cruise missiles caliber. you can use your voice from the neighbor river, usually used by small tours boats. was it hard to city worship in here? so we had to do it during the night,

we more the ship in complete darkness. it was quite difficult, but we managed we're on the island of branch that near saint petersburg. and this is where some of the biggest bad thought that i think is hard and buried are among them. re nuclear power. it's submarines that are going to be on public display for the 1st time. and one of them definitely stand down like the rushes ladies nuclear stop. that was commission just the year ago. like the 1st grab world headlines back in april after an operation in the arctic ocean when its surface from under the ice, along with 2 other steps. this was the 1st time in the history of the russian in soviet navy that such a mission had taken place. we're on deck rocket ship, cold deal on adult. and what's interesting about this worship is that it took part in an actual military operation in syria, back in 2016 when these crew members were fighting isis.

well, this is one of the lower decks of the ship. this is the quarter as is where the crew members live. as you can see right here, one of the crew members is ironing his uniform levels, come for to who does the laundry for the russian navy, a washing machine and you operated yourself. you do everything by yourself. of course we do the annual naval for rating st. petersburg as great symbolism for the country. russia is marking 325 years since it was founded in, in helping to merge as a global rating. you know, it's not going to be any bader to the river going do you know, but you know, ship shape and smart

a was the way the weeks headline, shaped up thanks for watching our program. it was appreciated here in moscow, you'll find so much more as well it r t dot com. but for now, kevin, over to the team signing off for enjoy the rest of your sunday. oh, i use the join me every thursday on the alex simon show. and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport business. i'm show business. i'll see you then in that day is going to start at the federal reserve

shirts. go there or you don't get it back. no refrigeration came. well look at the rest, the 7 years or the the in the me a moment welcome to the last few years have seen a precipitous crumbling off international agreements and previously accepted norms and behavior. planet. earth moves increasingly small for ever growing national english with one.
