ah, hard heading into the evening hours here at moscow. this is our t international, a very will welcome to you is now it just off to 6 pm here in the russian capital. we do start to with news just in, as we understand an explosion has ripped through a residential building in russia's republic of tungsten in the city of nevada. if any children is destroyed several flats and reportedly injured full people are we understand. one potion was recently pulled out from the rubble, according to russia's emergency ministry. the explosion was caused by a gas leak, or bringing more details on the story as we get them here at odds. and for now, to northeast to africa, where the military in sudan, all of a sudden dissolved the government and declared a state of emergency by the move comes hours after the prime minister was arrested and taken to an unknown location. the capital placed in

a state of lockdown. autism would have guys deal has details. well, general abdel matter what hands years seeds the topmost military figure in this sovereign counsel of sir dan is dissolved the entire body. what it was in the acting a body that represented that the head of state, it was made a party of military officials and partly of civilian officials. and they ruled the country they, they govern the country. we have learned in the early hours of the morning, reports began pouring in that the ministry was atan force in the capital and elsewhere that they were blocking off roads and bridges. that the internet had been cut both mobile and land lines that the airport was shot and all flights grounded and canceled. it emerged later that the prime minister, as well as several other other ministers, members of his cabinet, had been arrested and had been taken to an unknown location. the ministry of

information which is still active on line on facebook. it says that a number of other ministers have managed to get away there in a, in a safe place. but it views this or that the dissolution of the sovereign council, as a, to, as a cool by the military. and this is this all in the back of the revolution, of course, in 2019 when omar, but sure of the 30 years as head of country as the head of state a dictator. they called him after he was deposed of by, by popular, put us on, on economic grounds most where you talk about protests, for example, me took a talk about the, at the broader picture of this part of the world. political unrest in the countries really nothing new. i mean, we talk in these, these routes go way back on things. 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 mart budget, but those problems have become worse. that is, that is the problem. now,

via the civilian part, civilian part, military authorities came in to pave the way for a markers for elections in 2023. and they were desperate for money. so they appeal 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 are introduce all sorts of economic reforms and they removed subsidies, for example, for petrol, for, for, for power, for food, they raise taxes and stud, as 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 currency that collapsed and her power power, fuel 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, 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 been reports of violence that the number of people have also been injured. or in the meantime, the russian, a foreign ministry has urged that the sudanese people be allowed to decide the future of the country for themselves. we got reaction to the unraveling crisis from a senior researcher, the institute for security studies, but also from a journalist from south suda. the gum then of sa sedan as ah, bring all their defense. i did go fight isn't sedan ad through we decide what piece

of human and what piece of human was a bottle with 10. so done back to normal and also to democrats. but that is not working at met at the moment because the with a difference. governance and what men sedan and currently that there is a political interest from the friends political parties that additional intense. and actually what with what was the next solution we've done on the 10, but i now, but according when you look at the submission, actually this edition with 10 him to wall because that different group that pro middle face and then the civilian and his pupil is your time, if there's no into benson's or valid as are the prime minister in the prime is resign or from day emission position, then that a deadline was that as of what asked us can also a class. and if the crime listenable into the country, we why i,

we expect that people will get to the streets and those numbers will continue to increase. until i am the millard, she actually listen to all heed to their demands of my doors, tea of sudan, nice people. additionally, there's going to be a lot of pressure coming from the region coming from the african union. and i banged to national parts list. remember that one of the difficulties that sudan has phased soon by his exit has been the fact that they've not been able to solve that very common request. and that way they're very basis for the overture of out of my share. and we do know that their role of international partners has been very key in trying to do that. so the way forward is going to be tough. and there's going to be a lot of contestation between the civilian compliment civilians in the country when they are military leaders. and we hope that all i will be able to proceed on the side of caution and restraint. so that ability of sudan will be paramount

despite being banned by social media, an unseen jo bind and so on cold let's go. brandon today finds itself at the very top of a hip hop chance in america, a youtube removed wrapper. bryson grays. try and claim it contained medical misinformation, with a song takes aim at biden's bungled afghan withdrawal and his handling of the cova corona virus crisis. in the defense youtube set, the platform doesn't allow claims about co fit, the conflicts with the mainstream medical guidelines as a charge, the artist himself denies. there's a 1000000 signs best out right now. if you're trying to act like a song, i can't say certain things in a saw where you band it. that means you're bending my are you bending my you of was going on? if you can be an art, you're been anything. i don't curse in my music, i make 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 to myself, i've been in real life and this is what i believe it should be a legal or social media company to be able to change their guy lives every week. i've been delete things that came prior to that. they actually are playing with our free speech. nobody is messing with me on their mess on the bus. the title of bryson greys hit is off of the now infamous internet catch phrase. it went viral after nbc reporter was interviewing nascar race of brandon brown and said he heard the crowd chanting, let's go, brandon. apparently failing to realize what the crowd was really chanting. oh ah, ah, but the song comes as jo biden's approval rating has noticeably dipped according to a new survey. it currently sits below 45 percent down 11 points since his integration in january. this means that his popularity has declined faster than all

of his predecessors since the 2nd world war. bryson grey again thinks the president is having a really tough time at the oval office. trying to kill amena people now a lottery will say let's go branding for me. best perfect. somebody, it doesn't curse. back or so my the same for president biding people call trumpet dictatorship. there's nothing more similar to what data step in what jo buyer is currently doing. and what a lot of countries are going to try to segregate that's needed, unvaccinated businesses, like jim crow, 2 point oh. meanwhile, the world are medical watched continues to sound. the alarm about the ongoing coping pandemic consisting can only be stopped through one way the funding me will and when the will choose to end it, it is in our hands. we have all the tools we need effective public health tools and effective medical tools.

the vaccine donations by western countries are failing to match initial pledges. so says that people's vaccine alliance, whose latest report concludes pharmaceutical companies on rich states are contributing to job in quality around the world. and we spoke to ox fams, anna barrett who 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 that support followed by these broken promises. and it should be a cause of international shame, i think the think is, and the data that we've released show is what we've known all along developing countries simply camel and should not have to rely on the goodwill of rich countries. all pharmacy companies, they're not delivering what we need or the rights and the recipes it seems to be shed so that we can scale up manufacturing and developing. i'm sustainable source,

the well, the document named a dose of reality on the lines at nearly 2000000000 cove it vaccines. shots were initially promised by wealthy nations. however, only 14 percent of those have actually been delivered to the countries that need it . the most. this translates to essentially one in 50 people in low income nations are only now fully vaccinated. and the people's vaccine alliance is crystal clear on who shoulders the lion's share of the blame for those die of figures, namely high income states. now the u. k. promise to donate a $100000000.00 doses to kofax, a world wide initiative aimed at a fair access to covert vaccines, but so far has delivered less than 10 percent of that. and canada's 40000000 doses promised her seen only 8 percent of that figure handed over ox fams on a married once again. believe the pharmaceutical giants, regrettably, but obviously of monetized. the pandemic patients whenever designs full pandemic

for 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 also really have to remember that billions of dollars and your rise and i'm pounds that have been put into the development of these vaccines. it wasn't the investment of pharmaceutical corporations, all of their shareholders that made these vaccines possible. let the astrazeneca look at mcdonough, almost a 100 percent puppet be financed. this is tax cans, money that paid for the rapid development at 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 that monopolies and the grotesque profits of pharmaceutical corporations. they have already made billions out of this pandemic. it's time to share the recipes, the rights to produce them,

so that we can get this virus under control. facebook whistleblower francis hoggard is testifying to you. k lawmakers who are working on legislation to crack down on a harmful online content that comes off to her appearance in the u. s. senate where she accused facebook of spreading misinformation, hate and violence. things i'm specifically worried about our engagement based ranking, which facebook has said before march like a bird put out a white paper in 2018 saying engagement base ranking is dangerous. unless the i can take out the bad things. and as you saw, they're getting 3 to 5 percent things like keep speech there. 8.8 percent of violence. who's fighting content based but comes back and says only a tiny sliver of content. our platform is hey, we're only tiny sliver is violence. one that can't detected very well, so i don't know if i trust those numbers but to it's hyper concentrated in, you know, 5 percent population. and you only need 3 percent of the population on the streets to have a revolution. and that's dangerous. alright, straight for london now,

and he's shot here. it was dusty, joining us here on the program. can you tell us more about the latest developments now in the u. k. parliament today. while the inner workings, all facebook have now been further exposed out whistleblower francis. how god has been testifying in front of m. p. 's on the social media giant failure to protect the public from this really harmful content. now it's been a pretty long testimony indeed, and it's been very explosive to, with all sorts of allegations regarding safety incentive, censorship, cloth, of course, algorithms and the power to really just don't people's news feeds on social media and also the content flow, of course, as well now, all of what she says have a pattern of negligence. now, one of the stand out quotes from the testimony today is that the platform is undoubtedly making hate was. so of course, she was taken to the parliamentary committee here in the westminster who is scrutinizing the proposal for the online safety bill. it's

a landmark piece of legislation that could really set the tone for social media regulation across the world. now for us, how can a former employee of facebook says now is the time to act and facebook's encryption, which are essentially ambitions to make the site less transparent, will actually make it easier for the actors to strike. now that could be on one end of the scale espionage operations by hostile states, but then also on a more personal level, it could be hate crime. and those people sharing illegal content. now that is an opinion that really is quite hand in hand with the government, which is looking to ban anonymous profiles. how would you consider a legislation to remove a 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 and

the duty to work together. and i do think working together is part of the solution here. sadly at a time when we need to be taking more action, facebook up to see and, and to, and encryption plans that place the good work in progress achieve so far in jeopardy. so is, was looking through some of the aspects of this bill, especially it's in it's draft proposal form. so essentially all companies need to protect people from a harmful content such as hate crime. there's also though, of course, an emphasis on protecting children from inappropriate content and sexual exploitation and abuse. so we're talking about the companies you'd expect, like facebook, twitter, tick, tock, youtube are all of which will need to tackle this content that's lawful, but still are harmful to the public. of course, that's a really tricky area to cover. it basically applies to abuse and misinformation think right now in particular, all of the different dates are and content on coven vaccines,

or even the pandemic as a whole. so to try and get through and navigate this blurry line, the bill will also now be potentially bonding the anonymous account in the hope that people will no longer want to be hiding behind the computer screens. no hiding behind a fake account either. however, some key players in the civil liberties are platforms of basically saying this is a really slippery slope for government surveillance. and of course a pass or lack of privacy. and they've demonstrated that this is a terrible position to take encryption benefits users and m whistleblowers world wide. it's essential to privacy and security. so hogan who argued directly against anti monopoly action against facebook is now parlaying her new phone celebrity, to defeat its plans for and to when encryption more and more it looks she's in this for more government surveillance and censorship. the so logical position supports

you key and u. s. government launched turned in demonization of encryption in the interests of much of valence. so today yet again, francis hogan is really shining a light. in fact, putting all the flood lights on a real and need to keep people safe. but in testimonies like this one, it really does expose how difficult it is to get that balance right, particularly online at to protect people, but also to protect privacy to i shot you. thanks for that. or like a friend, neil a chief political right at spike. joining us here on the international. great to see you this evening. the u. k. wants facebook to scrap plans for encrypted messages. i mean, do you think this is the right route to take for the u. k to achieve its aim of that of increased security? no, i don't. and i'm very worried about government intervention into the internet. i think there is a sense soria streak to some of these arguments. and i think the idea of that the governments depression,

social media companies to protect us from content that is legal, but harmful, that it's a very worrying development. because who gets to do to, to do to define what is harmful content? who gets to say, what is bad to people, what is going to cause them distress? what is going to call them alarm? those decisions will be made by the new moral guardians of online discussion people that facebook, people in government departments. and i didn't trust those people to decide for me what i'm allowed to have and what i'm not allowed to print. and what about the average person who enjoys facebook, what the average person be aware of, or even concerned about right now? i think i should be concerned about government encroachment into internet freedom that i think should be people's main concern. now of course, there are lots of things online that are objectionable and defensive, but that's part of life. there is, you know, life itself has lots of ideas and, and themes and images that are objectionable and offensive. we have to learn to

negotiate these things. and to live as grown ups in a society that has got some offensive ideas in it. if there are things online that are illegal, if we're talking about the creation of actually illegal content, i don't have a problem at all with that being removed. but when it crosses the line into taking down things that are legal, but apparently harmful, that should concern all facebook uses. all social media uses because they are being infantilism by the government and by the social media. oligarchs who are presuming to know what is best for us and how we should be looked off. so what about our alternatives, brenda? and any alternatives you can think of to canceling encryption that you would take if you were in the shoes of the m p. 's right now. well i, i do think there is an argument for protecting children in particular from what goes on on social media. social media, i think, should largely be for people over the age of 15 or 16 people who are generally

capable of negotiating all sorts of content. young children, i think that needs to be more guards against younger children using social media platforms. i don't think they're really designed for kids, so there is an issue there and practical next steps can be taken to ensure that children remain safe when they use the internet. i think parents can use locks on the internet to make sure that children don't use certain websites, and maybe social media companies would want to bring in a form of age verification. there are, there are practical steps that can be taken, but the problem is when we have this broad sweeping discussion about the fullness of the internet. i think that setting us up for a new round of censorship and for treating adults as children, we have to trust the adults are capable of negotiating offensive content and that we have the right to do so. so i'm worried that the wild west web, you know, the internet which is one of the greatest most free platforms,

humanity is ever created. i'm worried that if we control it too much, it will lose its essence of freedom. was assassinated in commentary from a brendan o'neill, the chief political writer as spiked. joining us here on this monday evening at archie international. many thanks. would really appreciate that. thank you. well, our google has paid all of its fines in russia, of a failing to remove band content, according to the head of russia's committee on safety. an anti corruption of the tech giant coughed up $32.00 and a half 1000000 roubles out. so mars half a $1000000.00 or less course locked out all correspond danny armstrong in moscow for more on this, danny, good evening to you, one of the wider implications of this settlement. yes, good evening in us. right. and here in moscow, on monday, the state duma has met with google representatives where the multi tech giant has actually agreed to commit ad to russian law and so closely with russian authorities . of course at rushes as media watchdog ross. com. that is, all of us have had

a massive m say in what's been going on between google and some of its at been content. it has been an add an ongoing process. it said to delete some of that ban content, but it has been a process, a process that has yielded it. so some rewards and some advantages at now, despite google not deleting around about $2600.00 bits of bond material. and by october, that figure is down by about of about half at from the $5700.00 bits of illegal content. and that were around in, on google's a space on line adt back when these 2 sized met in april. so in, in half a year has been down at by a half. now, although the russian side say that is a good job, it's far from ideal. now, rushes into their foreign affairs commission. chief vasily pissed carry off. says that that could be down to some convenient community guidelines. now let's just hear what he had to say in those meetings on monday, moscow or your social or was this what you use?

it's not right. if google gives its own rules priority over our own broadcast laws, which but during our meeting, which lasted over to our google demonstrated a willingness to comply with russian law and state bodies from jerusalem. so google claim, they have paid most of those fines. now some sources say that is around $32000000.00 roubles just under half a $1000000.00, but the russian government has been quite hard line in their stance. they say, if this content isn't deleted, those funds will only go up and their stance towards google will get harder. now another issue that was raised in those monday meetings was the issue of the deletion from youtube, the google owned company of our to assist the channel, our t deutsche without warning. and without the possibility of restoration of $700000.00 viewership, completely wiped out in just a click of a button as it were. now, although the reasoning at the time was quite hazy, that was for violates in community rules and community guidelines. as it was said,

back then, a pescadero of has said he has raised the issue in the meetings to day. but those reasonings and those answers that he got were also, are still questionable and far from satisfactory. as so, as you can see, russia standing firm on foreign sack and foreign interference as it were. and although steps have been made as to get some kind of progress at between the 2 sides is still many steps to be taken before. both can meet each other in the middle and what they regard illegal content. hired out a correspondence, danny armstrong, aaron central, moscow. thank you. band on all the major social media platforms. donald trump has found a way to quote, stand up to the tyranny of big tack he is now launching his own network. who do you call to make things great? again, what a superclass at this time, your self proclaimed favorite president is coming to rescue social media. so help
