6:01 pm
we discuss the ramifications. we know anti vaccine. you know, we can see the importance of having the vaccines. however, i think you just go to a different level when it compulsory express care workers could be immunized. we have to be careful to not let cove it once again mass. a lot of the social issues that are going on with kathy wanted to recreate studios in moscow. this is our to international. i'm john thomas. certainly glad to have you with us right now. britain's confirmed it has sent a group of soldiers to the poland bell roost border in a deal with warsaw. the move occurs amid an escalating stand off over migrants that has already reached the level of the un security council. delruda is accusing poland and lithuania of using the crisis to get extra funding from brussels. but several western members of the un security council say bell roof is actually trying
6:02 pm
to destabilize neighboring countries. that's an audition that found little traction with russia. we the current european union members of the security council condemn the orchestrated instrument delays zation of human beings. or there is a game or for shifting blame now or european union. remember about the reasons why these people are really, are fleeing their countries, which conscious destroys, are they are countries international organizations need to be provided with immediate and unhindered access to people there in this no problem for journalists for jose food. go to the places where the migrants are placed. on, on the contrary, there is no excess for, and joe's for journalists fall and tears to the areas where the $15000.00, according to some estimates, polish guards messages. this is some of the latest video from the migrant campus posted by the bell russian state border committee. thousands of asylum seekers are
6:03 pm
in the area as they maintain hopes of gaining entry into the u. poland introduced a state of emergency on its eastern frontier with belarus in september that effectively band journalists and and g o z from entering the area, thus hindering efforts to report on the crisis and provide aid. instead, 15000 polish soldiers were deployed to ensure the migrants didn't get across the border. and as i mentioned earlier, british soldiers have now been sent there to address the situation as well. more on that now from our london correspondence, shoddy edwards dusty. clearly, britain and poland, a very close allies, i have a long history of friendship. and so for to now extending this involvement into what is being seen as a humanitarian crisis is an act of solidarity on support from westminster. of course, part of has been extremely vocal about what it sees as the weapon noise ation of migrants by the government in better route. and actually all use is an effort to destabilize the european union. now bella reese, of course,
6:04 pm
obviously denies all of this, but britain now getting involved could be interpreted as an escalation of all of these issues. although. 8 britain is certainly not wanting it to be seen in that way. however, the minister of defense here in the united kingdom has now announced that a small team of armed forces armed personnel have now been deployed to poland. we're not exactly sure of what small teen really means in terms of the numbers, but they all that to provide engineering support. interesting to see what exactly that engineering support may look like. we've also seen a statement from the polish defense minister as well, who says that troops have now joined the reconnaissance mission with that polish counterparts on the board. and now that basically means ascertaining a certain strategic operations and surveying what options that they may have trying to navigate away out of this humanitarian crisis. so it will be really interesting now to see what difference does the british government getting involved really make?
6:05 pm
well, we see anything really different happening on the board to, particularly for these migrants. that will be interesting to see how the international community of react to. and crucially, whether they see it as an escalation. former british euro and people muddle, says the u. k is protecting its own interests by getting involved. hi, natalie, it will be about the bolstering of the, the board defense. i suspect, an offering engineering support, but equally, i think it will send out a message to britain. i believe he has a dog in this fight because when many of these my kids have been interviewed, they said that britain will be their final destination. and obviously, we have a problem with the moment which is going on in the channel, which i was argue is just as bad as what was going on on the polish better russian bulk of these, my going to and i one, the polish lucian bowl that many of them are going to make their way to britain. they will no doubt use the channel these as well. so britain does have
6:06 pm
a dog. and despite the people who are suffering at the moment of those migrants and there needs to be people getting around the table and solving this issue before when to really kicks in. and in the fontes will start piling the movement of people we are currently seeing at the bellows. poland border is happening elsewhere on a much larger scale, an influx of people for conflicts in the middle east began years ago. and there are now well established routes to get to western europe. and let's have a look at some of those ways. a popular migrant route starts from pakistan and afghanistan. they then had through eastern europe before reaching italy and germany . in fact, the u. n says that 75000 migrants have traveled through bosnia and herzegovina since 2018. actually 3 phenomenal, spoke to a people smuggler who is offering to take migrants into northern germany. others through rather i think these people illegally across the board because that governments did not allow them 20 europe using legal methods. they tried to flee and get as quickly as possible to europe in countries like germany,
6:07 pm
switzerland. some of them are on the run for 3 to 4 years. as soon as they cross the border and get into germany, it's a done deal and they are free to travel anywhere within the european union. they don't get caught in germany, but they put them down in asylum centers. and after a while to get permits because they flow the id cards so they can't be deported as german authority. don't know where they come from. basically we were trying to help them find a better life. otherwise they most likely would have been caught, put in some kind of asylum center and then reported back to their home countries. now, as soon as they cross the border and get to germany, they are free. it was scary. the 1st time i did this adrenalin fear police drone arrests, a lot of my friends got caught while transporting them. the migrants were sent back and they, my friends, went to prison. most of the activities had done during the night. there were wild animals, you wait and hedges or canals until you cross over that kind of thing. we came
6:08 pm
across all kinds of migrants from algeria, tuners here, egypt, i don't know, but there were all kinds which we honestly transported from the gel gina to cause in. whereas others trick them stole from them, left them on the side of the road, which we stole the money from them. we got no, it was who. when you look at them, they look mostly poor and don't look like terrorists. i've become involved in this business over time for many years, having known some people wages here, a lo, so it is what it is. so for transporting them, you get paid. well, while simultaneously helping some one, it's $300.00 to $500.00 euros per person. earlier, maria joined andrew farmer to explain often that interview and talk about the risks that migrants are prepared to take. i remember how surprised i was to 1st hear that max of is not his real name to go around 80 people across the border and that the price is between 30500. you were as the person we felt he didn't tell us the truth,
6:09 pm
but i just couldn't understand why would he lie? but later off camera, he admitted what he was doing during the interview. he was trying to deliberately diminish these numbers for security reasons and but in all other aspects, facts and details he gave us, i can tell you, he was quite honest. my job in the last few years at least was to transport migrants along with my team from bacel, gina where people had previously transferred them across the serbian border through improvised methods. so we picked them up and transport them obviously at night through some wooded areas. sometimes 510, sometimes 20 mostly kick is in and the clergy in a region where other people then transported the mom. the path was through serbia and also through small or big boats where they would sneak in. they also sometimes travel by laurie's. they get under a laurie, it's a tough road. they come to turkey and also bulgaria, basically through the poor country, so to speak, like albania, bosnia and then they go to cruise ship germany and from there elsewhere from turkey,
6:10 pm
they get transported to bulgaria. well, gary, or isn't the european union if they get caught there, they get sent back to turkey because there are no asylum laws allowing them to stay there legally. so they come here because it's easier to migrate from here to the european union. you have to understand it, whose web covering quite a significant part of the world. and in all trends and countries, let's say from pakistan to germany, you have to understand there are people like macs that you as a migrant have to go and pay. as we heard the you and things that something like 70000 people have gone through that country in order to try to get to western europe. why is that? why is it such a popular route? first, if the shortest possible way to get to be today. but there is another reason both, and he's also famous for being loyal to these kind of people because of their pat, of its past, because they still remember how does it feel to do refugee and how does it feel run away from your roads, motherland. the war there was over more than 25 years ago,
6:11 pm
but they still remember it. and i can say in a level of, of talking to people still sympathize with refugees and migrant. and another reason, the part from the countries past in the present, the reason the very high level of corruption and very complicated political system and a very high unemployment rate and all day is altogether push so many youngsters down the criminal business while you were filming. and pause you saw managed to speak to migrant student, you who are sort of going through. they're trying to get to western europe and heard 1st time their experience and motives, few and legal migrant. and you want to go to europe. you have basically 2 options to go to people like mags, but that's in case you have money. another option is to do it on your own. and i mean that's re scary, that's more dangerous. you can get caught and no one can give you any guarantee that you will ever succeed. but still many people choose the 2nd option because they don't have money. they don't have other choice. we asked max to take us on his
6:12 pm
normal journey from a to b, how he usually takes migrants, you know, to the equation border out within the mall. and on the way there, well we would just try the, we saw several groups of migrants and we stopped twice. and 1st group was from gonna fund. they left the country 4 months ago, right before the tally button came to power there. and another group was from pakistan and they were like 20 people there. i was, i was like shocked. and we stop and talked. and 1st i was so surprised that they were not hiding in us and why. and they told us they have the official refugee paper is given to them by the was in the for, it is speaking about how loyal this country is to these people. so if they try to cross the border, they get deported, they can only be deported back to bosnia. so they don't have to do this whole journey from scratch from pakistan free. going, going to tell you the value of how many trying
6:13 pm
6 times please just invoice and then you try again. so you have been walking all the time. when did you leave bucket time? oh, i think before, do you funny you left keystone 2 years ago and you still want to go? i don't. the one the one. not going, but you're in bosnia filming for new documentary. yeah. tell us more about that. we were filming a documentary about one serbian guy living in serbian part of both now who long time ago wants to become a priest, but became a soldier instead because the war came to his motherland and he had to defend his family and his country basically. but after the war was over, more than 25 years ago, he was still looking for it somehow. and this is how he ended up working for
6:14 pm
companies like black water and how he started to hobbling to places like iraq, afghanistan, g, booty, israel on, can all, all the countries, many of them in africa with so called private security missions. so it's very emotional, very actually said documentary about this person. he that he explained to us that he was pushed 1st to doing that to be a soldier. but after that, he got kind of like wor, addiction, so it'll look too much about him. but the raw, it leads to bigger messages that i want to send. first is that wars a so bad. but the situation in postwar post conflict countries is sometimes even more dramatic and that should be addressed. and another message which is especially important for me as a piece advocate is that there are so many wars and conflicts in more than world that people like our main character whose name is to sion will hardly be left jobless anytime soon. and that is very sad. outside of the problems on the bellows
6:15 pm
border to russian paratroopers on joint maneuvers in the region died on friday when their parachutes became tangled and the russian defense ministry says a sudden gust of wind during a jump forced the 2 to collide, leaving their parachutes unable to function correctly, one of the men activated his reserve shoot, but he was already too close to the ground. both men from a group of 250 russian paratroopers died of their injuries in hospital on 2 other news. now, in germany, in the covert situation, i've taken a bleak turn. as infection rates continue to break national records, that's as the country reports its highest daily number of new cases. since dependent mac began, hospitals are increasingly under pressure and authorities are calling for urgent action. as our chief peter over reports from berlin. grim grim figures have been coming out of germany over the last 48 hours. really,
6:16 pm
they've been pretty grim figures for the last few weeks. mark is zada, the leader of the states of bavaria. he's been expressing serious concern about the number of hospital admissions that we've had across germany, saying that the health care system is really creaking to its breaking point. practiced. the fact is that the hospitals are full. they are the limits both in terms of the workload and the emotional situation. that is why it's important that we act now. and we've also heard from yen spahn, the german health minister of interim health minister. we still don't have a new government here exactly yet. but again, spawn has said that free coven tests will be reintroduced. now they would turn away with it a little while ago. and once they were gotten rid of, we saw the numbers start to go up because it had been very easy for german to get to test. if you thought you may have any particular issues that was watered, almost every corner you go in, you get it done. it was done in around 1015 minutes,
6:17 pm
they would then take, you can still get test done, but you have to pay for them. and we've seen numbers rise again. this isn't just a german issue though. we're also seeing situations in austria and the netherlands as well, severely restricting the freedoms of those who cannot prove if they've been vaccinated, or in some cases, that they've recovered from coven 19. now in germany, the vaccination rate is around 67 percent that's lower considerably than the 75 percent. that health experts have said, countries need to, or populations need to meet in order for the vaccination to be as successful as it can be. often the laga, even if the situation is different, because so many are vaccinated, it is still not good, especially because not enough citizens have taken advantage of the availability of the vaccine. and that's why we have to continue to be careful. while we're being told here in germany to avoid large events and limit contact, certainly all situations that would be knocked advised to listen to what the robert
6:18 pm
cock institutes of hops and say about limiting the amount of contact and limiting the possibility of catching cove. it is case numbers rise here in germany significantly was peter just mentioned there. austria is also suffering record daily covered cases, prompting the government to bring in special restrictions, but only for the unvaccinated. i don't see why 2 thirds should lose their freedom, because one 3rd is dithering. for me, it's clear that there should be no log down for the vaccinated out of sally dirty for the unvaccinated. from monday there will be tough restrictions for unvaccinated people in austria as to hardest hit region. that means they will only be allowed to leave their homes for a central reasons, such as to buy groceries. see a doctor or go to work in parliament will decide on sunday, on the nationwide imposition of such measures elsewhere around the world. other moves being taken in singapore. for example,
6:19 pm
coven patients who declined the job will have to pay for their own medical bills, regions in germany, or limiting restaurants, bars and clubs to only those who are inoculated, or have recently recovered from the disease in grief, visitors to restaurants, state services, and banks must present vaccination certificates or negative test results. while here in russia, the city of st. petersburg is imposing mandatory vaccinations for senior citizens. restrictions all around the netherlands, though violent protests followed the announcement that a partial lockdown is being imposed from saturday. it will last for at least 3 weeks and mean curfews in public places are closing for hospitality and non essential businesses as well as no more than for guests and gatherings at home on thursday than other ones log. it's a highest daily infection rate since depend on mac, again, of countries attempt to varying degrees of locked downs. we discussed the impact of targeting non vaccinated citizens with medical and social experts. will be
6:20 pm
a better way to convince people to not any protect themselves, but also protect others. we emphasize to law on anti g and infection control measures and being sensible. no, so i am safe distance in so i just feel that the whole force compulsory and takes it to another level. it just takes away the choice and enough enough, the people are we in duck on county or the restriction is largely based on trying to prevent transmission or just trying to get the numbers up to make sure more people are vaccinated. as they say, a circulating society, no, we want to get the numbers off because if you get the numbers up a number of positive benefits, a crew one, the person is protected from severe illness and dying. that's one second, they're most unlikely to end up in the hospital. and then the 3rd, a immunized person is infectious for a short period of time. what we're seeing is
6:21 pm
a lot of confusion in maybe even some moral panic and hysteria. that's coming from a lot of these bubbles and communities that are sharing a concerns about the fears of not being vaccinated or the fears of being vaccinated . i'm. we're still vulnerable in, in our places. what like, you know, i'm patients have visitors come in, you know, there's lots of people coming in to the hospitals and i think it's quite unfair to just talk in those and those health care work cuz you know and force it in. i think a lot of it when we not read it and i went to and see vaccine, you know, we can see the importance of having to vaccine. however, i think it just going to different level when is compulsory insensitive places such as one rebel patients severely, clinically wonderful, etc. we've got to ask that you are safe to manage them. and therefore if you are working in that area, you've got to be immunized. certainly, i don't know how many my students are vaccinated or not at universities in the u. k
6:22 pm
. don't really like sharing that information. it's going to create a scenario where these passports and these documents really have us looking one way or another at somebody and the social ramifications of this, including the immense inequalities that could come from the treatment of each other . because of these laws and whether people conform or not, i have been talking to a lot of health care workers who have been hesitant about vaccines. a lot of them from menacing homes. and i gave them of my time effort and energy, showing them how the vaccine works, what it does, what it doesn't do, how to protect them, and in the end, most of them went on to get immunized. so we need to do our homework of inform, advise, educate, as well, my county where we saw so some of the anger from u. k. care home workers about being told by politicians to get a vaccination. but there will be people who remember back to last spring, and that was fatality numbers in u. k. k. homes who are going to be thinking,
6:23 pm
if i'm putting my relative in these care homes, i want people to be vaccinated, they're going to be where it may be. find that behavior selfish? yes, i expect care workers to be immunized because unfortunately, this corona virus can be infectious and could kill the elderly people without your knowing on the day you were infectious, we have to be careful to not let bid. once again, mass a lot of the social issues that are going on in society that have been a long time affecting people, causing doubts, housing, long time, ambulance wait. there are lots of issues that are underlying this, that we just like coded overtake few with the government instead of mandatory a, coven vaccinations. what would you do to convince people to get a job is not so much about convincing people and people be mandatory. i think it's more about giving people the choice and giving them all the information that they require and letting them have the choice. inflation in the u. s.
6:24 pm
has accelerated to its highest level in over 30 years. supply chain bottlenecks covered restrictions and increasing energy prices are all adding to household costs ahead of the winter. president biden has ordered that energy prices are reduced and has blamed rising prices on opec for not producing enough oil. although in the same breath, he wants to shut down oil pot lines in his country over environmental concerns with more, his art sauce could tailor the holiday season is upon us. but if americans were hoping for abundance giving c store a christmas tree, lincoln with presents no luck. a supply chain crisis is this his grin bringing mash, shortages delivery delays on record breaking inflation. inflation hurts americans pocket books and reversing this trend is a top priority for me, the largest share of the increase in prices and this report is due to rising energy
6:25 pm
costs. so the president would be tang king ratings and angry voters has conveniently found the guilty party energy. and it's true that prices have thought, in fact, a 3rd of american pact to skip cut back on necessities like food and medicine to pay that energy bills in recent months. you'd think that wouldn't you, that it wouldn't be the best time to even talk about shopping yet to nata pipeline . as we enter the winter months and temperatures drop across the midwest determination of the michigan or pipeline, we lumped out to the further exacerbate shortages and price increases in home heating fuel. at time when americans are already facing rapidly, rising energy prices steep home heating costs, global supply shortages, and skyrockets, and gas prices. just the latest and a long line of non fans of biden's energy policy. no pipelines and no drilling comments revoke the nieces suspended. the white house has gone green,
6:26 pm
even if it means killing of thousands of jobs and even your citizens to shiver. but instead of taking ownership for that part of town, the full out now the president on his people pointing the finger elsewhere. oil is a global market. it is controlled by a cartel. and they made a decision yesterday that they were not going to increase beyond what they were already planning. never mind that america has enough supply in its own backyard to count out some barrels and bring down those prices, byte and just one touch on the caps. but opec should buy does not to blame for cold winter. opec is biden's not responsible view, struggling to pay the bills. opec is just as well. he explained it twice. oh boy, it's all quite complicated, isn't it? like the supply chain or what i'd explain it to you, but you just wouldn't understand. you hear a lot about the supply change in the news, but frankly, not
6:27 pm
a lot of people are clear. have a clear understanding whether they have a ph. d here. they didn't go to school about how a supply chain works. the problem is we do not have fuel in american cables, only speaking to smart. know what's going on. i know he's doing a very, very bad job. do take offense at biden calling. you may or can people do it or this. there is no supply crisis. there's no border crisis. i do, i take a sense of that because we see it. we live here in texas, the space. it's an insult to the american intelligence and his press secretary, according to them, there is still crisis, but if there is a crisis, just because we ordered too much on line, would tell him to stop being political to start thinking about americans and the good for america i don't see how more in, if you could get, i think that's just
6:28 pm
a typical political. why? out of a problem. the blame game a question, can any politicians playbook and perfect for times of trouble? you know, like when your party was humiliated in the recent elections, you're racing to be crowned, be least popular president and history. and now people can't even afford a woman posey thanksgiving. and you're not even a year into presidency. 31 and a half minutes. that's when i will be back with another 1st look to stay with this . this is our international the ah, if we can now look into people's minds, read the thoughts. the question then is,
6:29 pm
what kind of consequence we would take from us? i think you take the example flying, it would prevent us from lying. we wouldn't be able to lie anymore if everything becomes transparent, but what we're thinking our new york is really what america is about. ah, when our mayor took our place, he was elected because of his campaign on our city, being a tale of 2 cities, the haves and i have not. and those who have not are usually the ones who weren't being buried on hard i. the city has always wanted to forget about hold island. city is wanted to forget about the people who are buried there. just wanted to forget about the fact that there is a potter's field that there was a place where difficult stories are hidden. the fact that we're using inmates to
6:30 pm
maintain this active burial site, where 1000000 souls are buried, where so much of new york city history is buried, is document of the inequality that is existed in the city for centuries. ah ah with for no, we're not schuster. i'm here, i'm sorry for sharing such all at the top one word side.
