10:03 am
on economic grounds most where you talk about protests, for example m. he took a talk about the, of the broader picture of this part of the world political unrest. and the countries really nothing new, i mean we're talking these, these routes go way back down there. so don, for many years had been under very tough economic sanctions, international sanctions. eventually things got much worse and there were huge protest in 2018, 2019. they eventually forced to add a power o mark, but shit. but those problems have become worse. that is, that is the problem. now the, the civilian part, civilian part, military authorities here, men to pave the way for a democracy for elections in 2023. and they were desperate for money. so they appealed to the i, m f. the world bank had such money, never comes. you know, freely comes with strings attached and what are the conditions was that they introduce all sorts of economic reforms and they were moved subsidies, for example, for petrol for, for, for power, for food,
10:04 am
they raise taxes. and today is one of the poorest countries in the world. and you had people who, who marched and protested to depose of buy shit for a brighter, more prosperous, economic future. and eventually they ended up with a courtesy that collapsed and her power power, few food price hikes across the board to things have become much more desperate. and we saw of these weeks a build up impetus. we had both those who were for the transitional council for democracy say yes, things will get worse, but eventually they'll get better. and now we have those who are, who are desperate, who say that, you know, we, we don't care, we want the military to come in, get rid of this incompetent government. we want to have to eat with her mind if it's a military dictatorship. so long as we have food, so the, so long as things are stable and affordable at nevertheless, now we know that there are put us on going in in the capital that protesters are burning ties protesting against this military coup as they call it. and there have
10:05 am
been reports of violence that the number of people have also injured. i also spoke with a journalist in our south sudan who gave us his insight into the unraveling crisis and the neighboring north african country. the gum mental plus to them as bring all the different physical parties. so done through with defines what piece of human and piece of human was about. 10, so done back to normal and also the democrats. but that is not working at the men and women who called the dream, rebellion and movement, sit down and cut on that there is a political interest in physical hockey. this is the sort of intense and have so what, what would be next done on the tablet i now, but according to when you look at distribution, actually distribution will turn into the wall because the different group, the pro,
10:06 am
military and civilian and is simple. there's no intervention or the or the prime in the prime is resigned or from the initial position, then the delivery of whatever stuff and also life and the cause you didn't go into the country life despite being banned by social media. an anti joe biden. song cold. let's go brandon today. find yourself sitting at the top of the hip hop. johnson america a youtube removed. rafa. bryson grays track claiming it contained a medical mis information. the song that takes aim a biden's bungled ass guy withdrawal and his handling of corona virus in his defend . so youtube said the platform doesn't allow claims about coves, the conflict with mainstream medical guidelines as to charge the artist himself denies. there's a 1000000 songs best out right now,
10:07 am
and if you're trying to act like a song, i can't say. so i'm going to saw where you band it. that means you're bending my are you bending my you was going on? you can ban. are you back? anything i don't curse on my music, i'm a positive music and i do have my views and my music. i don't even curse and i'm the most sense a wrapper in the world. how is that possible? i say what i believe in my song. everything i say in my, in real life, and this is what i believe it should be illegal or social media company to be able to change their guidelines every week. i've been delete things that came prior to that they actually are playing with are free speech. nobody is messing with them. they're missing the bus. the title of a bryson great hit his off the now infamous internet catch phrase. it went viral, often, nbc report, who was interviewing nascar race of brandon brown and said he has the crowd chanting. let's go, brandon. apparently failing to realize what the people really watch on that ah, ah,
10:08 am
well, the song comes is joe biden's approval writing has noticeably dipped according to a new survey. it covers a sits below 45 percent down 11 points since is integration in january. this means his popularity is declined faster than all of his predecessors since the 2nd world war of russian. great. again thinks the president is a finding the job rather tough going. amine, people now a lottery will say, let's go brand new for me. that's perfect. somebody, it doesn't curse back or so my the same for president biting people call trumpet dictatorship. there's nothing more similar to what date of shipping, what jo buyers currently doing and what a lot of countries are going to try to segregate. that's needed to i'm vaccinated. businesses like jim crow, 2 point oh. meanwhile, the world medical watched all continues to sound the alarm about the ongoing covert crisis insisting it can only be stopped. one way the fundamental will and
10:09 am
when the world chooses to ended, it is in our hands. we have all the tools we need effective public health tools and effective medical tools. increasingly empty shelves are getting shoppers in america nervously eyeing the calendar amid the fast approaching holiday season. it's been caused by a major disruption to the national supply chain over the past fortnight. dozens of ships, us ports are idling and the water's still waiting to be unloaded. now the pandemic has, of course, wreaked havoc to the global supply chain. a shortage of our port operators and truck drivers in the us as that to traffic jobs, docs and mt shop shelves. the government claims the ports have been overwhelmed due to a surgeon demand and that of a booming economy. the public is not entirely convinced. and it's led to yet more
10:10 am
gloomy reading for team biden. over half of those course in a new nation wide survey, believe the administration is dealing very badly with the economy. we've gone from extremely prosperous, too, locked down and economically miserable in the space of a year from 2019 to 2020 the lockdown caused the supply chain to grind to a halt because businesses were not ordering products and supplies anymore because they weren't able to move them and sell them, and they weren't sure when they would be. the government does not expect to perform well when the next couple of elections if the truth about the supply chain. and the current state of the american economy becomes widely known, were told by the administration, this problem will be over by the end of 2022. i'm seeing it in the foreseeable future. this is going to take years, if not decades. and we will have to return to
10:11 am
a state of reasonable prosperity, prosperity before the supply chain even fills itself in to return to what we considered normal vaccine donations by western countries of failing to match initial pledges. so says the people's vaccine alliance, whose latest report concludes pharmaceutical companies and rich states are contributing to job in quality around the world. and we spoke to walks fams, the ana, marriott, is also the policy lead for the people's vaccine alliance. what we've seen is developing countries receiving an endless types of to be frank, inadequate gestures of support followed by these broken promises. and it should be a cause of international shame. i think the biggest and the data that we really show is what we've known all along developing countries simply cannot and should not have to rely on the goodwill of rich countries, all pharmaceutical companies. they're not delivering what we need or the right from
10:12 am
the recipes of these seems to be shed, so that we can scale up manufacturing and developing sustainable. so now the document named a dose of reality underlines that nearly 2000000000 cove in vaccine shots were initially promised by wealthy nations. however, only 14 percent of those have actually been delivered to the countries that needed the most. we're talking basically one of in 50 people in low income nations are now fully vaccinated, while the people's vaccine lions is crystal clear on whose shoulders the lion's share of the blame for those die of figures. namely, high income states of the u. k. promise to donate a 100000000 doses. to kovacs, a worldwide initiative aimed at fair access to koby vaccines. but sofa has delivered less than 10 percent. and canada's 40000000 doses promised as seen only 8 percent of that figure handed over the ox fams. anerio again,
10:13 am
believes the pharmaceutical giants have regrettably monetized the pandemic patients whenever designs full time that makes the public health emergencies, they should not in any situation get in the way of saving lives. and that is exactly what is happening now. but i think we will really have to remember that billions of dollars and your res i'm pounds, have been put into the development of these vaccines. it wasn't the investment of pharmaceutical corporations. all that shit hold. is that made these vaccines possible? look astrazeneca, mcdonough, almost a 100 percent. the finance is tax pans, money that paid for the rapid development, these vaccines based on decades of research that was also public. the finance didn't about peyton's providing incentives. this is about peyton's protecting the monopolies and the grotesque profits, the pharmaceutical corporations. they have already made billions out this time that
10:14 am
it's time to share the recipes, the rights to produce them, so that we can get this virus under control. your program continues in just a ah ah mm.
10:15 am
so rather than by dreamer shaped bankers are those with dares sinks. we dare to ask oh, it's a quote upon here at moscow. facebook whistleblower francis hug and his test to find a u. k. lawmakers who are working on legislation to crack down on a harmful online content. now it comes off to her appearance in the u. s. senate where she accused facebook of spreading misinformation, hate,
10:16 am
and violets. let's learn more about this now live to watch. he's a shot here. it was dashti and london sharia. tell us about these latest developments in the u. k. parliament, if you would well, the inner workings of facebook, yet again are in the spotlight and have been further exposed to deus whistleblower frances, how good is testifying in front of and peas on the social media giant platform and failure to protect the public from harmful content it's been a pretty explosive session already with all sorts of allegations from st. louis, censorship algorithms, content flow, but specifically about private groups. in fact, one of the stand out quotes in the last few minutes. she said the platform is undoubtedly making hate worse. now as you say, she was speaking to a parliamentary committee or this afternoon who is scrutinizing the online safety bill, which is here in the united kingdom. in its proposal form is a landmark piece of that legislation which could actually alter social media
10:17 am
regulation for the rest of the world as well. now, francis, how going to former employee of facebook. she argues that facebook encryption, which a could make it a less transparent. i will actually mean it will struggle to disrupt espionage operations by hostile states. she says, hate crime and also the sharing of illegal content own online as well. now that's actually very similar to the government's approach who is looking to ban anonymous profiles online. would you consider legislation to move right to anonymity on social media? i want us to look at everything and there is work taking place already. now clearly the online place, we see far too much cruelty on mine. and i think all of us have responsibility on the q t to work together. and i do think working together is part of the solution here. sadly, at a time when we need to be taken more action, facebook up to see and,
10:18 am
and to, and encryption plans that place the good work and progress achieve so far in jeopardy . well, as we're looking at some aspects of this online safety bill, then asa isn't it's draft full that will basically talk at all these kind of companies on keeping that they need to really protect people from illegal content, such as height, crime, harassment, and threats. but also there's a particular emphasis on protecting children from inappropriate content and sex for sexual exploitation and abuse as well. now some of these companies all the ones you'd expect, like facebook tick, tock, instagram, twitter, that will be in this category one, which means they'll need to tackle lawful, but still harmful contents if it comes quite a mackey and tricky a base is because it applies to people that are using abuse and misinformation, particularly now in the era of coven vaccines and so on. this is a really blurry line and deal with this you bills. you could very much try and navigate through all of that by bonding these anonymous profiles,
10:19 am
meaning that people can't really hide behind the screen any more. but some of the key players that are fighting for civil liberties in the united kingdom simply say, is the really slippery slope. as the government is pushing towards surveillance and the lack of privacy. 10 year olds were on the line. this is a terrible position to take encryption benefits users and m whistleblowers world wide. it's essential to privacy and security. so, hug and who are good directly against anti monopoly action against facebook is now parlaying her new found celebrity to defeat its plans for and to win encryption. more and more, it looks she's in this for more government surveillance and censorship. this a logical position supports you key and u. s. government launched tendon demonization of encryption in the interests of must have valence so on the one hand to day francis hawkins, yet again shining a light, in fact, putting the floodlights on harmful content and how important it is to keep our
10:20 am
content uses safe. but then it comes quite a tricky debate between the balance of surveillance and privacy and keeping people safe. i showed you, thanks for that. let's learn more our course live to our sophie cohort on the political commentator. joining us here on the program, the monday program, 5 20 pm, moscow time. good to see you today. facebook is facing mounting pressure from the u . k. government to ditch it's encryption plan. do you think this measure will solve the root of the problem? and no, i don't, i think, and facebook and companies like that have a responsibility to taco illegal content. however, i think removing privacy is a back door to censorship and it gives the government and social media companies for too much control over the conversation on people's daily lives. you know, exactly, because you're one of the concerns is you know, could this move showed the u. k. governments inability to handle the existing problem without his the point without taking away people's rights?
10:21 am
yeah, i think this measure is a bit of a copout is a bit of a i would use bandannas counts is an easy way to do it and but then not so juggling up the consequences of it. and i think it's a rather authoritarian measure, to be honest with the giving the government thought you much control over the media . and if you put it in that sense is actually quite a scary prospect. sophia francis hogan said that the end to end encryption plans mean it'll struggle to disrupt espionage operations, but she, she's generally pro encryption. does it? does it seem strange for you? yeah, it does seem a little bit strange to be quite honest with you, ma'am. i understand the kids we know reasoning behind while we're having these conversations, but just it just doesn't seem quite right with me. very distraught. what about a hog interview? didn't you think our speech and the u. k. parliament?
10:22 am
what, what will it lead to do you think? well, i think it is a little bit of a back up and to the online safe to build that is past and repugnant to right now. i think it's sort of, you know, the message that the government wanted to hear them to press ahead with this bill. and much the dismay of many of our civil liberties campaign is here in the u. k. which you think than you think the long delayed online hom as bill will now be approved for? i think i think it will be approved and yeah, i fall in the death of the david aims. it was a big part of it. a lot of people started quarterly online and anonymity and the homes of social media. this again about facebook, you know, failing to tackle hate and stuff on social media. i think that all goes back up. so trying to encourage people to go along with the online hom spill in the hope that it will solve those problems. but i think a lot of people who says again the, the online homes bill is very authoritarian and lease to backdoor censorship. and,
10:23 am
you know, takes the power away from us citizens to discussions freely without government intervention or you know, lack of privacy. you say authoritarian, you mentioned back door access to what do you think? what about the everyday, jo? how, how was, well, how was people, how was citizens, how uses going to react to this? do you think? but i think a lot of the everyday jose and she has known in the social media accounts because a lot of them, you know, can't do it for the job. they don't want the government would have been watching a woman saying, and i think we've seen a lot of this now come to lot with what the thing that we just spoke about earlier on in the show would be let's go brandon song. there's been lots of videos online for questioning type of policies came back to you and taken down because the government doesn't want people to see this question quite misinformation, but he has the right to can tell me what that you. parts of the argument,
10:24 am
people can say, i think it gives the government far too much control over the argument. and you know, people can any sort of see this point and then on now to see anything else. and things that we've seen with those are tearing governments oftentimes. and i got a lot of the key signs of red flags that we need to be need to be aware of. some very interesting comments. sophia coker and a political commentator joining us life or on our team to national thank you very much for your time. thank you. when a group of more than 50 right wing vigilante activists, to a patrolling germany's border with poland and the hunt for illegal migrants, they've all been stopped by police now a weapon to re including patterns. and i'm sure he was seized from them and it came off to berlin, deployed additional police forces to the front, with an extra $800.00 officers station there. peter oliver now picks up the story. well, it's hard to see this is anything other than an escalation of the situation, not the you border. and in this case,
10:25 am
at the border between germany and poland over the weekend, saturday night into the early hours of sunday morning, the police offer headed more than 50 as a prostate fall right. vigilantes who were there patrolling, looking for people, trying to cross the border from poland into germany. now when police apprehended these people, they found upon that person, pettus spray, a bayonet, a machete, as well as a number of bats on as well. now, $800.00 police $800.00 extra police studies have so far been deployed to the german polish border to deal with what is an influx and extra influx of people trying to make that crossing to come here to germany. a lot of those have started their journey in minsk, having taken a flight into bella, reese and crossed into poland 1st, then trying to get into germany, what we're hearing from the german government, both from horse z hoffer,
10:26 am
the german interior minister, is they are prepared to step up the operation, if it's required. hundreds of officers are currently on duty their day and night if necessary. i am prepared to reinforce them even further. if the situation on the german polish border does not east, we will also have to consider whether this step needs to be taken in coordination with coal and in the state of brandenburg. well, this isn't just a german question. this is a european union wide question and the youth being doing whatever it can to try and cut off the migrant route that starts in bella roost. they struck up a deal with a rock. now what that deal would say is that that would be more rhetoric on the, on the sensually on flights from iraq to, to better is to minsk because that's the route people are being taking in order to get 1st developed. then across the border into poll going from poland into germany . now there is no sign of any type of deal being done at the moment between the
10:27 am
european union. unbelievers itself. the you in fact is accused alexander lucas. shank, the bell, russian president of operating in a legal migrant transport system. fact those were the exact words of the german foreign minister. hi, co must just last week from president lucas shanker though he says that they can be a stop to this. they can't be a full stop put to this particular influx of migrants unless you're willing to work together with bella, race, there's absolutely no sign of that happening anytime. same going german chancellor, ongoing medical is also had something to say about getting a united front from the european union and the difficulties of doing just not at the moment, particularly when it comes to certain issues. and especially when it comes to the issue of, well, the rule of law concerning poland and hungary, but migration when it comes to the whole block, there is no unified e,
10:28 am
you approach and the, the outgoing german chancellor being bologna and the fact that that seems to be getting worse as opposed to getting better as time goes on. but the fact that you've got armed fall right, vigilantes, pope, patrolling the border between poland and germany, looking for people crossing into the european union from bella roofs. that's sure to set off big alarms and means that something definitely needs to be done sooner rather than later. or that just about wraps up by this our new program here on our team to national what a busy monday we've had. so 5 by 5 30 pm. now heading into the evening, i was here at archie and to national in moscow. many stories still to come. we are back soon with more. ah, join me every thursday on the alex salmon. sure. but i'll be speaking to guess of the world of politics, sport, business, i'm show business. i'll see you then. mm.
10:29 am
