you grow old victor holiday constance. he was born with a disease in his legs. we tried very hard to get treatment abroad, but we didn't get permission to leave the country. we received an offer for treatment from germany, but we were not allowed to leave kurdistan after several years of not being allowed to leave. the doctors told us that his legs had to be amputated. since then he has been using the prosthesis. these are his legs. he's walking with those legs. they're getting to small for him. every 6 to 8 months, they get to small because he's growing up money and we don't have the money to change them. life and kurdistan is too hard. he can't go to school or play in the playground. other children insult him because he has a disability. what's your favorite game to play? love? of course, you would like to go and play football outside, but with these prosthesis legs, he can't. meanwhile, poland has deployed additional police and troops, as well as military hardware at the border declaring a state of emergency though,

right now the top, the migrants tried to storm the frontier on monday, cutting through the res wire fence and using tree trunks to try and flatten it touches broke out with the border guard too, who responded with tear gas on top of that, the sound of gunfire was also heard. how, according to polish estimates, as many as 4000 people remain at the board at right now. around $10000.00 more believed to be elsewhere and bellows heading towards that frontier to try and enter the u. many refugees of the camp say they are now desperately lacking in basic supplies. good news, such as it is on tuesday evening, humanitarian organizations did manage to deliver some aid, including much needed food, water, warm clothes, and they're all important. blankets. more of it arrived on wednesday as well corresponded constantine raj, covers their force. hundreds of migrants have gathered to get free food delivered by bel russian volunteers and the local red cross. this is much needed how for these refugees, a stuck here at the polish of belarus border. now we can see that kids, they are served of 1st to get milk and some cookies. this is much needed. how for
4:04 pm
these, a poor ha migrant says they're running extremely low on supplies, you know, for the past few days, these people have been on a poor, died made up of junk food or potatoes, cooked on campfires, but even these can stocks are almost gone now. cold is another problem for these migrants, most of which came from the middle east temperatures now dropped below 0 degrees celsius at night. and these people have to sleep right on the freezing ground, not just man, but also women and children cam fires. let's have a look at the scene here, and you can see lot of cam fires. they are now never stop burning because david cam crucial for these people's survival. of course, cold and food deprivation is an extremely dangerous mix. recently we came across a boy who was barely responsive, his mother told us he couldn't get up since this morning and refused to eat. she is worried sick that her son my die at this camp. and i, you know,
4:05 pm
the problem is that there are no medics on side. unfortunately, these refugees are at the end of their robes. they don't want to stain barrios, but poland doesn't let them into the european union. refusing to consider their asylum applications. at some point, almost everyone at the scamp lined up along the barbed wire fence over there, and people chanted open the border in a desperate attempt to bring attention to their plight. and i didn't take any immediate effect though, as the polish security forces stood still and just idly looked at these people through the layers of barbed wire, the number of bell, russian politicians and civil activists also to part in delivering supplies to the migrant. i was constantly mentioned several tons of humanitarian aid had been provided so far from the local branch of the red cross. most of the h been donated by bella, russian produces, and companies, ambulance crews are at the campus. well. now, while that humanitarian assistance is being handed out,
4:06 pm
a group of nobel prize winners is appealed to you institutions to take action to an open letter published on tuesday, they said that europe has no right to take their eyes off the tragedy demanding the polish authorities allowed journalists and human rights organizations to enter the border area from the e. u side. arti shall ado belsky with more on that part of the story. as this humanitarian crisis plays out as desperate people wait to try and enter into the e u. they are being treated like they are political ping pong that has been humanitarian assistance able to get through. but it's not very much. and that's why these poor noble prize winners have written this open, let it now demanding that humanitarian organizations have regular access. to help out the polish government impose the state of emergency on the buddhist trip. but when perlin and beller bruce on the basis a witched, refused the excess of sick and dying in the border area to doctors and paramedics, and prevented the media from accessing the tragedy that was going on. there were
4:07 pm
call on the aid organizations that can provide medical and legal assistance to be allowed to enter the border area. poland has been securing its board or for some time has been putting up barbed wire fences. it's been installing more surveillance cameras to see what's going on, and it sent more than 10000 troops and police officers to try and shore it's frontiers. and now it appears that the e u, which at the moment, is currently finding poland, 1000000 euros every day. for its refusal to back down on the it's you dish reforms and is withholding billions of euros in covert recovery funds appears that it's ready to open me. write a new blank check for poland in a bid to shore that barrier that infrastructure on the border there to security. easton, frontiers just a month ago that you said that was out of the question. now it seems that that is
4:08 pm
very much back on the table. in the meantime, the other thing that's being discussed is, sanctions, more sanctions are due to be announced next week. that's what we're hearing from diplomatic sources, not just against bella roost, but also we understand that this could be extended to russian and turkish airline carriers that operate from middle eastern countries and fly in to minsk. this situation really seems like it's rapidly deteriorating. of course, the european commission and the central european governments interested to keep her refugees away from central europe. so they will edit poland onto that. and after that, of course, there will be confrontation again of the politics which it is done. and my moment is contradiction very because on paper we have international law on paper. the
4:09 pm
european union claims for itself to cling to the human rights and all the qualities flora. this is pure political will of the all european union not to have those people so that more won't come as a political decision to shock people. so that being tell the relatives who are maybe still at home don't come here. it's cindy, but it's a reality. i some high level political thoughts on this. the e. e. e was revealing its sense of superiority in its approach to the migrant crisis on the polish bella. russian border. so says russia's foreign minister, making that accusation as he met his bella, russian counterpart in moscow. it come when you have a shoes of the polish, unless lenient didn't come to us asking for help. they enjoy their own sense of independence. making loud claims and blaming belarus and russia. they didn't ask anybody for help. this is a display of their arrogance and impunity to belittle the foreign minister as
4:10 pm
representing allies, men skin moscow have spoken out against how the european union member states have been treating bowers in the wake of the border crisis that is refusing to deal with the bell russian government directly to at least try and work out solutions for what's happening at the border. we also heard from the top diplomats that all the proposals that were coming from minsk for a talks have been completely ignored by european countries. instead, according to the allies minced continues to receive threats of further isolation and more punishment in the form of sanctions. now i asked the foreign ministers what they make of the weights and senior polish officials. and commentators began drawing parallels between what's happening at the border right now with the beginning of world war 2. that was back in 1939, some of the darkest days in polish history. and this was the response by sir
4:11 pm
elaborate vestry and political discussions. the west is increasingly reverting to historical examples in parallels. but they always cherry pick the information if poland says the situation resembles 1939, then why did they not remember? 1938 when czechoslovakia was torn apart. for example, such perilous are absolutely inappropriate william and reflect and inadequacy. the logic of the people sang them us. it only means that the so called young europeans continue to pull europe towards escalating confrontations with both belarus and russia. i hope that responsible europeans do not allow themselves be drawn into this dangerous spiral. the message from some of the most senior year pin union officials has been the same since the very outbreak of the crisis. that is, that means is trying to wage hybrid war against the blog. but what i heard from the
4:12 pm
bel russian top, the woman was that he's actually amazed how he's never seen the same kind of attitude towards the european union's neighbors in the mediterranean or in the balkans. given the scale of the influx of refugees that the block has seen for years from the south and from the southeast. here's what else, the bel rushing top level mad said about that problem. the problem is not bela bruce, but the european union. what exactly is their strategy? it is to punish a rebellious country that has taken a different point of view and has taken in their opinion, some unacceptable steps. it is an absolutely intolerable approach. there must be dialogue, but they have driven themselves so far into a corner that they cannot get out of it. and then it happened that they did not even recognize the legitimacy of the bell russian government. so now they do not know how to get out of the situation. this is clearly nothing but a complete diplomatic deadlock, and the situation on the border isn't likely to improve any time soon. but at least
4:13 pm
mens has been reassured once again during wednesday's meeting that it's got the backing of its eastern ally to our other headline news and a major pushes underway now to convince e u nations that they urgently need a block wide military strategy and an armed force ready to respond and deploy. member states will now mull over a draft plan from foreign policy chief, joseph burrell, who opened his sales pitch in no uncertain terms, saying europe's in danger. we have a strategic responsibility. citizens want to be protected. soft power is not enough . all the threats we face are intensifying and the capacity of individual member states to cope is insufficient and declining. a draft plan is called strategic compass and it would reveal to reporters on wednesday. and in the threat assessment section, russia and china dominate a browse idea is to get the
4:14 pm
e use 27 nations to back a 5000 strong reaction force and also to allow a bit more flexibility and deciding on taking action. currently, it has to be unanimous. e foreign ministers will discuss the ideas next week. meantime, joseph burrell insists that his military strategy won't undermine nato of which will but 60 you nations are members. of course, among the biggest cheerleaders is french president, emmanuel. i'm a crohn who labeled nato brain dead 2 years ago. french u. s. relations also took a knock in recent wakes off, the france was humiliatingly sidelined and a lucrative defense packed with australia. or the push for a block wide strategies also being reinvigorated in the wake of the united states. chaotic pull out from afghanistan in the summer. okay, let's get some thoughts on this. now we can perform the austrian foreign minister, carrington, i saw welcome to the program. just a browse says that his strategic compass doesn't undermine nato, but as i said, most of them are members of nato anyway. at the very least, it sounds like it's an expensive overlap. actually, it's
4:15 pm
a kind of reinventing the wheel to a certain extent, again. and the more that for years we have had to see a reticle establishment. awfully rapid deployment force, which has never been deployed lead plans for having a 5000 strong force. do you think the criticisms, the heavy criticism to high level criticisms of the us pull out from afghanistan, have anything to do with this? will just a brow be able to capitalize on some of those thoughts? ah, i think there are many fault reasons why they wants to come up, which is now a reasonable one. this is the commission, what it was established or so it has 3 years ago. it came into the office with the desire to be a chief, political ah, commissions, or that ours language of power language a forest is, is of a couple a rate that morale, he, himself has been employing all those years. but the big but this, at the european integration process over the last 70 years,
4:16 pm
has never been considered as being a 2 political one. it was always about trade, commas, corporation, the famous sir piece project. and we simply do not have the basic talent for genuine cio, political action, for genuine, strategic thinking for that, ah, you meet people who really understand geography history. and i don't want to offend anybody who is served from political scientists, but at the ext all actual service, the departments it supports mr. burrell, his immediate office at it. so it's all about political science and you have many people who graduated from international relations politic sciences. but what i myself have been missing over the years when listening there and to taking the floor is genuine geopolitical thinking. that knowledge, those skills you might still flying in france, you have it in the united kingdom,
4:17 pm
which left up. but the, all the other countries are not really into cio politics. do you think of opening a pandora's box and based on what you cite the use founded on trade and all those kind of agreement rather the military? so if you stop bringing a bull footing as it were, into those 27 member nations that that's going to just call splintered division. there are deeply held thoughts on those levels rather than just trade. alma yes, there are. and i went when i went through did the elements that so that we can read now which mr. barrage shared with numbers media over the last few days. so i right summit them which were available in spanish papers for instance. i how i read it is mr. burrell, he himself, by education isn't every asian engineer. when engineer thinks him really putting things together, he uses languages like elements that can be used in a very flexible way, putting them together, ah,
4:18 pm
pertinent to the situation. this is an ingenious view of the world and what we, what we really miss on, on those levels is people who have a fro found, sound knowledge of history. i would say days, a lot of our historical non complete, non historical thinking. in particular, how brussels has been dealing with members like poland and hungary over the past 23 years. and beyond that, i would also add, i might assume that on the current circumstances, in the middle of pandemic, or even post adamic, a given older inflation is fuels afghanistan withdrawal. the experiences from oldest humanitarian intervention and worse, the public is of fatigue is tired of interventionism. and i think at the notion of humanitarian war, which has some very, very conflicting, ah notions. that last kind in the late eighty's,
4:19 pm
not that ignited lined his voice is to warn you was lava. it's not any more that much on the full front of parliament. and for any such decision, you will need to public opinion. you will need element. darren support referral for the 4 thirds the struggles to kate nato and a cohesive form. there have been so many arguments over its relevance, its future arguing over the bill if the united states is to be believed and who's going to pay for it, that this is a time that europe needs to think more of itself rather than being part of something as large as native yes that's, i mean, this is a very a host and, and, and favorite concept, a particular parasites statically shall de gaulle, london monk all definitely is implementing here this goal is the legacy. but he needs a berth, knows it for that and, and the germans are far from really desiring something that we go in parallel to
4:20 pm
late to and a buffer all of those come to the time, nate in the late 19 mantis, such as hold on such as the baltic states, i d, have a completely different concept. i mean, nate to 1st european union much, much later, i suppose. so the french president can also rally a lot of political support where he is in the wake of losing that lucrative defense contract to australia against the u. k. and the united states he's going to have from somebody to be able to say there is no yes, that's what she and her in these days are why present camel harris is in paris thought rather longer said 56 days trying to man to the problems and there's a lot of bilateral diplomacy going on in order to, to re wise revitalized this broken trans atlantic relation then. well, did the french focus on the americans that don't care about straighten,
4:21 pm
still much and, and up to speak about the british. so that really a lot of, oh, many, many construction sites also on that level. and i mean, it's a bit indiana old kind of us. let's call it wal monitoring. oh, breaks down to the su su, just mentioned before, and it's all about money and there was once a famous general, a sion of so was me when he was asked, what do you need for war for conflict? her here was a little, it's 3 sinks, money, money, money, and, and money has become very rare in, in these circumstances. off up i took problems, trying to so public economies. so i see a lot of the stepping stones still a had button. definitely, burrell wanted to come up with something he, he's raising his, raising his leg,
4:22 pm
a tentative work ability. one of the things that comes up in this, in this plan of barrels is to have more flexible decision making when it comes to military operations. now, many you decisions right now, it's all for 11 for all as unanimity in making the big decisions. now, you would assume that on a military action, that is a big decision. and if some disagree that some action could still go ahead, that's not going to go down. well, surely with a number of numbers state, definitely not. as you do have several countries which are, which are neutral, i mean they're trying to think like, until such a sweden, such as austrian, such as irelands and the while that there are always some innate contradictions with membership inside the european union, which is by nature is also political as have always wishing to also have a military branch. but i, i could imagine that again,
4:23 pm
hobbling opinion will have a say. and we all remember 2003 them making off to iraq. war on what did the, the united states could not assemble all its allies around the world. uh, there was new europe and that was old europe, new europe. we're at a new natal ma'am, was an old rock that was a german in france in those days. i'm done just very quickly in a word, if you were one of the foreign ministers discussing on monday whether to accept this or not would it be a yes or no from you? ah ah, i would say, well i, i would say i would like to really know much more about it. that's what i know right now from, from the media reports doesn't convince me. i can imagine the other 27 meeting on monday will be saying exactly the same thing once i got to look at the draft to good to talk to you again, can commercial for the austrian for minister. thank you. you're most welcome back.
4:24 pm
so frontline, national health service staff in england will have to be fully vaccinated against cobit all face losing their jobs. the plans have been outlined by the government so their estimate suggests that more than a 120000, the health and social care workers could now quit over this issue. shoddy, edwards dash, do you have the story? obviously that's hugely concerning the sector that's already so short staffed an impact assessment already coming through warning that this will of course, lead to a reduction in the services and lead to delays in the services as well as our job at the house. secretary insist weighing up the pros and cons. the pros of keeping people say, actually tip the balance. they carry a unique responsibility. they have this responsibility because they are in close contact with some of the most vulnerable people in our society. really an issue of being on to start when the increase of demands are happening in health services like one directly behind me. and if you put that all into the context,
4:25 pm
all the pressure of the can genic many and they test professionals are really disappointed with the government. they feel the more life and they don't want to be pressured into this. they feel po was threatened and ultimately forced into this policy. now trade union speaking on behalf of many of the n h s professional say this move using the law will actually do more harm than good. the government hasn't listened to what many people told them that during that consultation, which is that potentially the fact that they're reaching press sledge hammer on this using the law. and even the chief executive of any provider says that the government actually needs to try in the all humans through the powers of persuasion not just using and imposing as laws to do so. and in any case, is there really a need for this in the 1st place, considering already 90 percent of any just stuff already. double fascinated versus only pulls around 50000 unvaccinated people? will they come fully vaccinated?
4:26 pm
and is that really enough to push through a policy like this? then if we take that key example of those in social care, not the deadline for all of those members assaulting social care to the double back to make it actually later this week on thursday. and still that policy with the now, some months ago, we've actually seen a gradual increase of people becoming vaccinated. but a huge amount of people have again, entirely left the sector. so it seems like there is a bit of logic for the government trying to protect those most vulnerable. of course, that is fair enough, but what we do know here is there isn't really a public opinion. there isn't really much of an appetite to make the vaccinations compulsory, whatever the profession is. so it is a very risky move. indeed, we are a full like you can see a mass exodus of nature stuff professional from a health service already on it needs. the government said it wants to keep people safe, but i want it to me. it may end up doing the opposite. meanwhile,
4:27 pm
the head of an atria, england has faced accusations of trying to scare people into getting back sedated, so she played current. cobit hospital admissions were surging. 14 times the number of people in the hospital with it. we saw this time last year and we've also had a record number of a any attendance is the outdated figures she was referring to were actually from august, while in fact the very latest data shows. the current number of coping patients in the hospital is actually lower than a year ago. the health chiefs claims though provoked to storm of criticism online. if any chance seo, amanda prichard, it's so far out on her own data, she is either utterly incompetent or deliberately trying to mislead and scare the population. either way, shocking and unacceptable. not surprising. the n h s is in a mess and needs reform to day and a test chief executive, amanda pritchett talked complete and utter nonsense about cove. it figures either she deliberately lied or she has no idea what's going on in hospitals. it is
4:28 pm
reprehensible that someone in such a powerful position should get it so wrong. they lie to suit the fact that she was warning people. there was a building problem for the n h s. i was lost in this debate and excitement about the numbers which were frankly, just the mistake. there are certain people who will exploit what are mistakes for their own ends to generate bad publicity for treatment, for caveat and for vaccines making mistakes means that false numbers get out into the public domain and they will be or can be seized upon by people with alteri a motives to generate bad publicity create out in people's mind when really all it is, is just a mistake. and as the big stores were across here at archie and moscow, plenty more on a website of course. and are you tube channels if you wanna check that out? i'm calling brian. be back with the next update in 31 minutes. see them?
4:29 pm
ah, a ah. ah ah ah ah ah
4:30 pm
ah ah a ah ah, is your media a reflection of reality in a world transformed what will make you feel safe? isolation or community? are you going the right way or are you being led to direct.
