6:01 pm
ah, hello. good. have you with a slide from moscow? this is archie international. i'm calling bray with the world update this. our 1st staff shortages, sorry kobe cases and pressure on the national health service. the n h. s. of all led to another crisis in england. it's been reported that in parts of the country, patients of waiting for almost 50 hours to get a bed in accident, an emergency units. in one case, a patient reportedly spent 47 hours in line at the ball, preston hospital and i was dr from manchester while in the southern county of suffolk, a teenager with serious mental health problems, had to wait for almost 48 hours in the emergency room according to local media, the chest foundation trust for the area said that the weight was due to a lack of specialist facilities. look, winchester who had a relative, affected by the crisis, told us what happened to his family. he was 11 o'clock and his legs just wouldn't
6:02 pm
work and he fell out of bed. we didn't find him until 3 o'clock where my dad's going to get cooler, where he had for him. when we call for the ambulance initially they said not to leave him. oh, in case the best spinal injury off or wait a couple of hours my, my dad sort of still trying to hurry them up a little bit, tried to finding no, no, no. and again, to ask when you sent you an estimate arrival that direct him to 111 within 299 to him from there. eventually we spoke to a chappy, suggested how to move him back into his seat and had to get him up. and we did that is improving, but he probably still require medical assistance, but insinuated to us that well not even if you would you, would you like to cancel the ambulance on everything but the ambulance that day. and at that point we took him at the value and said, yeah, okay,
6:03 pm
we'll cancel that and we'll give him his dinner and get him into bed, et cetera. course over the night i stay the night make sure that you know, the noise is condition worsened. and in the morning, i go for another ambulance report say that 91 percent of hospital beds were occupied in england as of last friday. that's the number of people waiting for hospital treatments. i hit rec, or high. according to the n h s almost 6000000 people are on waiting lists, and this coming wednesday will only intensify the pressure of the same time. the british health secretary submitted that the onto the staff to operate the countries emergency telephone lines. the 999, and one more money heard about earlier. so g 8, i did that a detailed plan of action is being put together and it'll be, i'm failed soon. of loop winchester is not convinced every step of the way that mismanaged the crisis. aside from the vaccine roll out. i don't have any faith in the current government and the people on the ground who are working really hard,
6:04 pm
like the paramedics, like the people answering the cause. they're not necessarily always getting, given the clearest information. you know, i fully believe that when the 1st from 111 told us to talk to 999999 to talk to 111. i'm sure that they believe that's what you know, that's what we come to do. there's no real simple answers to where i think they're going to fix that because their actions sofa appear to be per unit on to say the u . k. register the highest number of daily cobra deaths since march, and the government extended its emergency powers related to corona virus for another 6 months. as a result demonstrates including anti access took to the streets to protest this and other pandemic measures. german police have warned that the country's border with poland is at risk of collapse. and then a massive influx of migrants crossing over into the ag from neighboring batteries. are these peter oliver has mall on the story?
6:05 pm
the european union is placing mounting pressure on minsk over refugees looking to enter the e u via bella roofs. now the german foreign minister has been among a group of, of senior german politicians that have pulled absolutely no punches whatsoever in their comments. hi, co must. the foreign minister has accused alexander lucas shanker, our rights of running an illegal migrant transport network, is it on sooner we'll talk we in europe are being confronted with the fact that lucas suncoast using refugees as a tool to put pressure on european nations. lucas suncoast. nothing short of the head of a state ron smuggling radar with arthur shift in new bill in and through belarus, stay tokenized, or at least state supported smuggling activities are taking place. the regime and belarus has now considerably expanded the list of countries from where people can answer without a result. that's a form of hybrid threats. when migrants are being used as a political weapon horse, they offer the interior minister of germany here you just heard. there's also said
6:06 pm
that he wants to coordinate with his polish counterpart in order to have joint border patrols along, not polish, or bellow russian border, that border basically, between belarus, anthy european union. there has been a deal done between brussels and baghdad, though in this particular issue, that is to make sure that no planes will be flying refugees from a rock into bela root. so the route that quite a few people had taken. now this air bag on flights is going to be in place at least until the end of the year. but what we're talking about deals, and particularly when it comes to refugees minds go back to 2015 to the start of the migrant crisis, which saw over 1300000 people seek asylum inside the european union. a deal at that time was done with turkey. turkey of course, was the country that a vast majority of people who arrived inside the
6:07 pm
e. you traveled across at the time. billions were given towards or promised at least, and certainly been hundreds of millions given to turkey. trying to make sure that people either remained in turkey or certainly didn't make or try to make that crossing. there's still a lot of reserve judgment when it comes to exactly how successful that deal was. and however, any sign of a deal being offered towards belarus, anne is non existent at the moment. in fact, the bell, russian president, alexander lucas shanker, says that he's doing everything he can possibly to fight illegal immigration, but says that all he gets in return from his european partners is political pressure and sanctions. you're stifling us information we, you are doing it methodically and collectively. you're trying to destroy our economy and expect us to spend hundreds of millions of dollars protecting your cheer, political interests, like before. you must be crazy to think we will support you if you want us to help . you have to take steps in that direction rather than try to stifle us. it's
6:08 pm
hopeless for the spite it not being what anybody in brussels wants or certainly not what they want to talk about publicly. at least it does seem that one of the only real ways to get to the crux of this problem may be for the a you to work directly with bella roofs or earlier on our tea. dr. stephen gadget of the institute of european studies and bell gray describe the attitude of brussels to bell roasters, colonial hello, says being treated quite differently from turkey. we can see the clear difference in language and in deeds. and there is this sense. i will say oregon when i, when brussels is talking to them, in a sense that i would even compare to their post colonial class. i would say this has a lot to do with wind hybrid warfare with hybrid warfare against russia. and billers
6:09 pm
is being seen as a, let's say, influenced by russia for from the russell's ministration. and of course, from their western neighbors, the baltic states and poland. so i do think we have more concerns for geo politics here and for to human rights e. u has awarded it's sa, her of prize for freedom of thought to russian opposition figure alexey, and about a the accolades given out annually by the european parliament to recognize what it calls perseverance for human rights. the whole quarter got more details earlier from correspondent tele, davinsky is, is considered to be the use top human rights prize, but there are concerns about how it's been used in recent years. we've heard now on wednesday that the 2021 recipient is alexi navarro, leonor position figurehead in russia who's currently serving jail time for
6:10 pm
breaching bail conditions. just want to give you a bit of background on what's led to valley being in jail at the moment. i lost in august, he was on a flight on his way to moscow, where he fell ill. he was taken to a russian hospital and then later requested that he was moved to a facility in germany. i. he was moved to that facility in germany, and it was after he arrived there that there were allegations from the doctors that he had been poisoned with his substance known as norwood shock. now at since then, we had accusations from government start just germany, but also across europe, accusing the russian government of being behind that poisoning. however, russian medical officials and officials at the hospital where he was treated in russia, say that ad there was no trace of the poison when he was being treated that he did
6:11 pm
return to russia and as a result of breaching his rail conditions, he was sent to serve out time in prison and that's where he is currently as recipient of this top a human rights award from the european union parliament. both charlotte, you mentioned that there are just a, just the beginning of your talk there, that there's been some concern about the prize being politicized. can you tell us a little bit more about that? yes, that's right. some any piece themselves hates out at this award, saying it's being used as a political weapon by the european union. and that's because the recipient doesn't just get 50000 euros and a statue. they also get the backing of the european parliament themselves. and it has been just in the, over the last few years, the choice of the norman knees and then the people who get this accolade really have something in common. and that is that many of them have been calling for government change in their own country that start in 2020. when at the bell,
6:12 pm
a russian opposition at received this award at the time when the e. u is encouraging protests in belarus against the elected government there in 2018. it was a ukrainian film director who was in jail for plotting tara in 2017. it was the venezuelan opposition at a time when the e. u was sanctioning president madura of venezuela and in fact it was that year that emmy peas really hate out really started to get angry about this award at saying that the e u had undermined dialogue in venezuela. their words not mine, and as a result were boycotting the ceremony that year. they also accused the e. u. of instrumental lazing. human rights is the use of this award that the price is also been awarded to political leaders in the past, but some have since fallen foul of the you including anson suki in my, and man as a result, she's been stripped of her rights to be part of this exclusive community,
6:13 pm
the addition now of alexi, nevada, the will increased those thoughts from many that really this is an award that is being used as a political tool by the european union, against those government cit dislikes or disagrees with. what is a european parliament award, but one german abbey pays far from happy at the decision. maximilian cross as the west applying double standards towards political opposition and that's unacceptable . you all know the record of miss giovanni when he came up in the early 2000 as a clear racist. and he was sentenced in russia for having for the, for, for making 1000000 more with putting the money on a company and 5, chris for not paying taxes. and that is, it won't be reached now we reach now, but the situation that it becomes ridiculous and especially it becomes
6:14 pm
a big list because graham and they were in country iraq to which is the ukraine. and there is an elected member follow with who's on the arrest and be a government. and here for putting it a real elected opposition leader into arrest. but on the other hand, we have a, at least out truth figure in russia we sent, you must do it. and then we say, ok, does this figure in must go look at the human rights record. a human rights record was on the other hand, we don't even recognize that we have a problem and that kind of freedom responds or, and didn't double stamps. this is this high who chrisy makes the political isn't it? without t plenty ahead, including taliban leaders who've been in moscow during wednesday, from multinational talks to tackle afghanistan's humanitarian crisis. the security
6:15 pm
that wasn't. it's our next story when we come back. the poor in america have gone poor, and they've been vastly more numerous. and the billing our class have gotten more a 1000000000 area to a great extent. but the government reports any aggregates. so they always take a foreign, a billionaire and they put him together. they said he put those 2 together. we don't see any inflation. well, this worked for about 20 years and people were fooled by this, and anyone who complained was considered to be anti american wealth. now, because of the mis allocation of breast for so long in the ricochet and boomerang, a verse coming back into the system, we now have catastrophic system failure. oh, when i was showing wrong,
6:16 pm
when all the rules just don't hold any rules yet to see how this thing becomes the advocate and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look so common ground. oh, hello again. now the security situation in afghanistan deteriorating taliban leaders have been a moscow. the talks focusing on the humanitarian crisis that gripped the ball, told nation 11 countries to pass in the conference. now senior correspondent, i guess they have reports next from the venue. this is been the biggest international event attended by the taliban. yet 11 countries, president, all of, of got astonished neighbors as well as russia, china, india,
6:17 pm
representing near enough half of the world's population. the in here wasn't a concrete objective to agree on something. it was rather to discuss where to go from here because we're at something of a stalemate, where by the taliban rules of candace fog, but the international community ease, largely reluctant to recognize the taliban as the official government, as the official rulers above got a sudden and on the dead, an intended consequences that has been that the life and struggle of ordinary afghans has been getting worse. and that was in the joint statement that all sides involve at his side. as of now, a 3rd of the population is on the verge of starvation. taliban has said that it is open to foreign aid, foreign humanitarian aid, food medicines being delivered, so long as the conditions attached don't violate their sovereignty or religious principles. one, a peaceful afghanistan is in the interest of all parties involved. just as we want . positive relations with others,
6:18 pm
we also seek positive relations from the outside. we are committed to the principles of islamic sharia law. any aid or assistance that has been given. if it's in line with ours law principles, we don't have a problem with it. we're already receiving some humanitarian aid, the session itself or all the delegates met to place bod closed. those we were told, there were many things that they agreed on, such as the need to stop. now co trafficking out of got to stop the need to address the security situation that the, the attacks by isis icon and other terrorist groups. there will to also disagreements disagreements about the makeup of the afghan government to tell about, insisting that it's government is inclusive other countries, such as russia saying that it isn't as inclusive as it needs to be that the government is, is packed with taliban officials, hard like taliban officials were passion at nist city. the predominant taliban efficiency. there is very little representation, but by ethnic minorities,
6:19 pm
all political dissidents, political opposition groups. and that is something that must change. but russia also says that the urgent power t, now at east to make sure humana erin aid is delivered to i've got to stop by every one through which ruth mood is doing. we are convinced that it's time to mobilize the efforts of the world community to provide cobble with effective financial, economic and humanitarian assistance. in order to prevent a crisis and to curb migration flows, we expect responsible behavior towards afghan citizens. first and foremost from western countries, a 20 year presence brought about the current deplorable situation and didn't in any way contribute in strengthening industrial or economic spheres. in afghanistan, again, 11 countries here will have of got a stance neighbors plus russia plus china press plus india all countries. the vested interest in making sure that i've got
6:20 pm
a son remains stable. the u. s. delegation by the way, was invited, but the united states had, it was unable to attend because of logistical challenges. another similar event, a moscow format, east plant, there is no dates yet, but we'll get isis of told us that they're ready. once the need arises, facebook is paying out $14000000.00 in the civil case over discrimination. the u. s . social media giants accused of giving preference to hiring foreign workers over americans. facebook is not about the law and must comply with our nations federal civil rights laws, which prohibit discriminatory recruitment in hiring practices. attack, john give certain positions mainly to temporary visa holders, and the prosecutors claimed that up to 2600. you at work is lost out. as a result, facebook was find almost $5000000.00 and his paying out walden, $9000000.00 in compensation to victims. the lawsuit against the tech giant was filed last year by the u. s. justice department. back then, the trumpet,
6:21 pm
ministration pushed the biggest tech companies to hire more americans for permanent positions. instead of temporary forum workers, legal atlas jennifer to master explain to his wife facebook in particular, adopted that policy. facebook and some of these other companies will watch these immigrants. it's a way to save money while also preventing maybe lawsuits for unfair or discriminatory work practices, which in and of itself is discriminatory against actual united states citizens that we're applying for work and unable to get at the company like facebook with a lot of money would be able their, their high priced attorneys, or be able to find a case that had narrow claims. but again, it's been brought by the department of justice itself. i think it's very surprising to people. many people who see facebook or some of the social media platforms is an arm of a political party. so it's kind of being this distinction drawn between this what we consider politicize, or a bite and era department of justice,
6:22 pm
which should be friends with facebook. actually bringing a discrimination claim against, you know, this, this partner. so this story might be used by either the federal government, by the new situation, or by facebook, to argue that the way we are different, you know, we, we, we can be held accountable or not about law. when in reality they've been working hand in hand for a long time and facebook has been acting as an arts of most many political federal agencies in order to st. silence political opponents. nepotism storm has had leading us democratic party representative maxine waters whose head of the house financial services committee is off to her daughter again, exposed for pocket involved campaign funds. financial disclosure records reveal, she paid carol waters more than $80000.00 over the fiscal year, which ended last month about sheets. the total that karen's received from her mother over
6:23 pm
a decade on korea to up to more than $1100000.00. she's been paid for running an uncommon federal practice called slate mailing. we're a consulting firms hired to list wible candidates that policies and advisors who to vote for the congresswoman now faces coals to go. this is how democrat socialists work. they take care of their own while people they represent lose jobs, pay high taxes, and in many cases go homeless. i am calling on the resignation of maxine waters. she needs to be investigated. maxine waters did this before and face no legal consequences. she know she isn't going to face legal consequences now. laws fairly vague on us politicians using campaign funds to pay family vendors with election commission rules only demanding that salaries don't exceed the fair market. value of journalist daniel is our claims that such behavior is essentially corrupt. but
6:24 pm
nothing will change the american political system is saturated with this kind of corruption. it just goes on and on. no one pays attention to it. every one regards, it is normal and therefore nothing is up on this goes on like flowing across the board through our congress and the presidency as well. i don't expect very much to happen because it would require a very rigorous kind of oversight and much more rigorous than the american political system as capable of doing either the or the, the standards in washington are very lax and they allow people like waters to get away with this kind of stuff, and it just keeps going on and on. and it never stops. well, health organization is restarting work on approving rushes. sputnik the coven vaccine, after the process was put on hold a month ago. more on the latest developments from ortiz, dmitri polk. well, it seems that we might actually be getting closer to an approval. the w h o just
6:25 pm
recently updated the status of the approval process for the student v vaccine. this process was put on hold earlier this month. they were waiting some documentation, but now it's been resumed and is apparently already in its final stages. all that remains to be done really is that a team of inspectors from the w h o must now visit russia to finish up all the necessary paperwork and inspections, and so on. but russian health officials do hope that the vaccine could be approved . finally, within just the next few months, because as a reminder, the splitting v like seen was one of the 1st ones due to be developed and see widespread use. actually right now it's available in 70 countries and has an efficacy rating of over 97 percent. however, throughout his development, the vaccine has seen a lot of controversy which is severely hindered his acceptance in the west and the w. h. o has been yet to recognize it or recommended. however, if this approval system process does go through smoothly, it could mean that the people who have received this wouldn't agree jab could soon
6:26 pm
be able to travel to countries which only accept w choa recommended vaccine. because right now, if you took this wouldn't v job and want it to go to a country which only accepts w h o vaccines. well, you'd either not be able to get a visa, or you'd have to get another vaccine, us w, h o approved vaccine. but if this process, the approval process does go through and w h o officially recommend splitting the that whole problem could become a thing of the past or will keep you posted on more hands there. that's it for me for now. thanks for watching your next doughty international. nice is in just over half and i wish hilton's ah, we have always been able to push that in sort of a far dark corner of our conscious because then we'll turn it in. once there are alternatives, you can no longer do that and you have to kind of accept, oh yeah, for that,
6:27 pm
an animal has been killed and we act as greenhouse gas emission. and here we have essentially the same product, same price, same quality with none of those features. oh yeah. maybe a lot that in the beginning is scary, but in the end it's not when i see black america lesson plans of myself when i was growing up like america spoke to me. when, why destroyed it did not. those who say black lives matter is a movement we are importing from america, learn nothing of who we are. i lived in a world where wide lives mattered. and i was not wide like missing. and i wasn't known from black america. i learned how to speak back to whiteness. aboriginal people of iraq law every day. we are out more than system now with the
6:28 pm
police were out with she states, i'm scared that more children are going to grow up in the country that think says no racism, but they're more likely to end up in the criminal justice system than there. although fellow friends in daycare with ah, there is other choices to play but also with a finley daniels trulia with a month because melissa was assumable just needed to ask you about it because i just food say that even when you would get these images, it goes up as good as a, supposedly gonna have my g. it's on, i would say again suspend music resume,

6:30 pm
but not as it expect. the water from overhead just brings the temperature down than main weapons against wild fires. are shovels, explosives, backfires, and muscles. with when we began filming in your kuta, it's forests were ablaze, but the local authority wouldn't declare a state of emergency. the situation was critical. the aerial forest protection service had to transfer reinforcements from other regions, but it took a day and a half by bus to get to the fire. they hadn't been able to find a helicopter. at the same time, another team they were rushing to help were defending a nearby village and barely made it out in time to save their own camp is really
