that it exists in the city for centuries. ah ha, austria imposes a nationwide lockdown and says, vaccination will be mandatory from february flowing a surgeon coven cases. more than half a century. that's how long america's drugs watched off once, in order to release all the documents relating to its approval of phases cobra vaccine. it follows the freedom of information request by a group of medics. and come on up to this hour man on the f. b i's. most wanted list to allegedly took part in january's capital, riot turns up in ben. a roof where he's now seeking asylum. we speak direct to ever newman who claims the charges against him of false. it was brought to my attention that i might be on that list and i looked and it appeared to be me
10:01 am
and it said a sofa federal officer. and i knew that i had not assaulted a federal officer. ah, oh, hello there life marty's will use age q this friday, the 19th of november just to in 6 in the evening. moscow times kevin o' in here for the next half hour on that big storage. a heard in from the heart of europe than falling a surge in new coven cases there. austria's chancellor, dan, i'm sing a nationwide locked out for at least the next $1010.00 days starting on monday, as well as a looming vaccination mandate from early next year. february to becoming than the 1st european country demanding obligatory vaccinations they bridge. germany's also considering similar measures may be. europe corresponded peter oliver reporting 1st night from austria, alexander shalon, berkeley, austria and chancellor saying that the whole country will be going into
10:02 am
a new lock down for monday at a last at least 10 days. it could well last until the 13th of december. after that 6 ended though only the own vaccinated will remain in the lock down. what it means though, is that unless you are going to school because education will remain open or you're taking somebody to school, then you are going to have to remain in your home unless you're going out to get food, your seeking medical assistance, or you're going for some exercise in your local area from the 1st of february, austria will become the 1st year a p and country to make vaccination mandatory. those people that don't fit into a criteria of either being pregnant or having a legitimate medical reason for not getting a vaccine. we'll have to get one. he said that it wasn't something he wanted to announce, but the fact is that it's just not being the vaccine take up in the country to this point. them to many political forces in this country have campaigned against
10:03 am
vaccination. the consequences of this r, overfilled intensive care units, and enormous human suffering. this decision does not come easily to us because none of us enjoys bringing in meshes that puts them in on freedom. this decision was necessary because too many among cousins have acted with out solidarity. there's also concerns about the health care system in germany just over the border. we heard on friday from the president of the robert cock institute, that's germany. public health authority saying that to g isn't working at the moment now to g is the system by which are only if you've got a proof of vaccination or you've got proof that you've recovered from covert in the last 6 months that you can have access to things like bars, restaurants and it's something more needs to be done. he didn't say lockdown, that was noticeably missing from the, the press conference that was given. but looking at what's happened here in austria,
10:04 am
it does seem like not maybe the direction germany is heading, particularly when you take into account what yen spawn the health minister in berlin, hot to say, and we are in a position that we can't exclude anything. we are in a national emergency. vaccinations won't be enough at this point to stop the spread of coven 19 controls. i needed to stop. the rise in covered 1000 cases. for the situation is increasingly bonds in some parts of germany. if we look in the states of bavaria and germany south, we're seeing intensive care. busy beds there. busy in extremely short supply, in fact, some patients are already being taken in by hospitals in italy that have more capacity right now, a situation that is developing and it's not developing in the right way or certainly not in the way we would like to see at the moment across germany, or for that matter here in austria, where i'm speaking to you from. you know, we talked travaras expert who told us german politicians haven't handled the coven
10:05 am
situation. well enough, so far in a lockdown isn't necessary there. this was one of these offices in these really good. we have enough beds and hospitals and we have fewer staff there either. a lot of people who called in sick or who are no longer available as nurses in intensive care units. in other words, they gave up, there were empty promises from the government, the nursing staff would get more money, intensive care nurses, or underpaid. anyway, it is a stressful job. at the end of the day, many of them can hardly cope with a situation where a relatively large number of patients are dying. i think the lockdown is completely unnecessary. we have almost 70000000 vaccinated people. they can no longer get seriously ill. why should it be worse now than last year? come on. i don't understand what people are thinking. if a ver ologist claims that there will be a $100000.00 deaths, there is no scientific evidence for this. nothing points to it. we see that the vast majority of people who get sick are on vaccinated, those who have been cured, also have immunity and no longer fall ill. only the unvaccinated are left vaccination is important. i suspect that to a considerable extent,
10:06 am
the election campaign in germany has contributed to the 4th wave. it was very quiet up to the federal election. people were talking about other things, the last side of the pandemic. then all of a sudden the discussion is now only about the corona virus. politicians should make sure that the measures are observed last year. this worked out badly. fully. europeans are the only one drilling of a code restrictions. an outcry in the u. s. has put the brakes on jo biden's mandates to increase vaccination rates there than is initial idea concern businesses with more than a 100 employees, anna possible, find out more than a 100000 dose if workers were left on jet. but in were states have lodged a legal set of battles against those meshes. course the world health organization, the backdrop to this is repeatedly stood up for vaccines as an effective form of protection against the virus, but mandatory jobs, romania, widely, controversial issue delay. we discuss it with some of our guests. think there's a couple of really important things are number one,
10:07 am
the fact that you're going to have a huge backlash across europe, right? because people are already frustrated with this idea of green passes vaccine passports. but there's a bigger issue here, and i think the bigger issue is the fact that yes, cases are rising right now. but there is no evidence so far that the cases are writing because of people who are on vaccinate. remember, we know the data shows a vaccines, don't prevent the spread of the virus, nor do they prevent the contraction of the virus. how many of these new cases are actually the result of people who are vaccinated as opposed to unvaccinated? and if that is the case, that it makes no sense to create 2 classes of people and locked down the unvaccinated and let the vaccinated continue to affect each other. well, i'm thinking of this, you classes of people. i mean, and it looks like that's kind of what it's coming to culturally. you have that vaccinated who are allowed to now do whatever they want. and then you had the unvaccinated, we're facing increasing restrictions. what are your long term impacts that especially in a region where we've seen protests over it over the last year, it was mostly the government's telling people to lockdown and giving them instructions in the last 6 months in america,
10:08 am
they've been using the businesses to say we're going to mandate something, it's caused a different kind of attention from say, the real impacts. lots of people including vaccinated people are saying we don't trust what's coming from the government by demonstration, backed off on their december 8th mandate, their be they realize the public's against them. the real question is gonna be, is what happens in the local communities in california, where they do have those rules in florida where they don't, you know, we're going to see this kind of tension rising roy, different views, next, coven related the more than 50 years is how long america's drugs watchdog wants before it publicly releases all documents relating to its approval of the pfizer cove at vaccine, a group of medic, saddam, for the dates under the freedom of information act and pony. the wanting it back a bit. the sta needed bailey, a 100 days before giving the job the go ahead. this $100.00 a day period is the same amount of time. it took the f. d a to review the responsive documents for the far more intricate task of licensing finances cove. at
10:09 am
1900 vaccine, it is difficult to imagine a greater need for transparency than immediate disclosure of the documents relied upon by the f d a to license a product that is now being mandated. over 100000000 americans. we have a situation here where, because there has been a freedom of information act request filed for the information about how the vaccines were approved. we have the us food and drug administration stepping forward and proposing to release $500.00 pages per month of the remaining $329000.00 pages. that would take roughly 55 years 55 years for this information to be made available. now the organization that filed the, the request public health and medical professionals for transparency says that if that pace of 500 pages per month proceeds that makes the freedom of information, act almost meaningless. and it discredits the food and drug administration's
10:10 am
promise to be transparent. the f d, a knew the intense public interest in that data and information. it should have been preparing to release of some of tenuously with the licensure. instead, it has done the opposite. this case is not about the vaccine mandate, where the files that can be held liable. this is a fire case where the only relevant issue at this stage in the litigation is setting a reasonable processing shadow. now it's important to note that one of the companies that was involved in the trial of the pfizer vaccine has recently faced a little bit of a scandal brought to light by a whistleblower. this article was published in the medical british medical journal . now the report from last month in which we had a former clinical trial auditor for the pfizer coded vaccine raising deep concerns about patient safety and about data integrity. during the process, however, a spokesperson for of in tavia stepped up and discredit some of the other allegations that were published in the british medical journal. and this concern
10:11 am
seems to have been discredited. so at the moment we have the lawsuit that was filed and we have these medical professionals saying they want this information. we expect us to be in court for some time, but at the moment the f. d, a is offering to release 500 pages a month of the remaining 329000 pages. and that would take 55 years over half a century. next, the curious tell of america want to buy the f b i for taking parts of the capitol hill ra. it has no trouble to bella roost and seeking asylum, nor ever newman's. his name. he faces charges of violent entry on capital grounds. the sultan lo, enforcement officials during what happened in those events on january the 6. however, while he doesn't deny his presence, say that day he claims the accusations against him are unfounded. we spoke direct to every newman and asked him how he got into the bedroom in the 1st place. i knew that i couldn't cross at a border i through the normal border guards because i would be arrested in and
10:12 am
delivered to the americans as a, as a gift for the upcoming summit. and i found a national forest on a map. but it was a swamp with, with snakes and wild boars and more spider thing. you can imagine i crossed there and, and it was more adventurous than i anticipated. well, it was an unusual conversation to have, you know, with an american who is now seeking political asylum in an eastern european nation that many will have trouble pinpointing on the map. but according to mister newman, he did not flee the united states. his departure had nothing to do with the criminal case against him. apparently he found himself on a business trip in europe. and essentially, i then only later, he made a decision to cross the border into belarus and, you know, try and seek political asylum. them. he got on the b i's most wanted list over his involvement in the january. the 6th protest in washington, d. c. which ended up you with the, you know, trump support is storming the capital. according to mister newman, he himself, ah,
10:13 am
he believes he did nothing wrong. he did nothing illegal. i should say in a conversation with me, he refused to confirm or deny though. the fact that he might have crossed you know the threshold and found himself inside. ah, the capital, but also at the same time as he believes that he did nothing illegal. i, he vehemently refuted the claims that he, for example, attacked a police officer. he told me that he regretted doing many things on that day. it was quite interesting to hear his account of events during that day, as he also shed some light on the, you know, a well, somewhat popular theory that they were well. agents provocateurs, people, agitators who were provoking protest as you know, to do. illegal things have a listen. it was brought to my attention that i might be on that list. and i looked and i peered, be me. and it said a sulfur federal officer. and i knew that i had not assaulted a federal officer. number one,
10:14 am
i promised somebody that i would stand back in the crowd and i didn't hold that promise. that's the 1st thing i regret. there was a man who came up in the beginning ah, when i, when i got there and he broke a window with a hammer. but then he walked away and down down the steps and away somewhere else. and then he came back about 15 minutes later. and broke away all the glass so that it was a clean way to enter and then gestured to us to enter. well, it has to be said that there is no solid proof to back any of such claims. and this story, it is full of twists, is another one. mister newman is originally from california, you know, america's blue estate, and he is a registered democrat on top of that. what prompted him to give his vote to trump back in 2016 was. according to mister newman, the way the d and c treated the bernie sanders campaign, he told me that essentially he believes that the dnc stripped bernie sanders of
10:15 am
a fair chance. said, you know, representing being the main runner of the party, back in 2016. and when he saw all the negativity going, the trumped way old. the hate, he just, he just, you know, gave a protest vote it was, it was like that. so that's why he initially decided to go and vote for donald trump back in 2016. last year he told me he voted consciously that he ceased. he cited things like economy or the fact that donald trump did not stop any new was. this is something that he cited as reason why he backed trump and living in california, you know, being a pro crump guy. it is difficult, he told me, and i had some serious speak easy vibes going off, how he described the lifestyle of him and those who thinks like him hemorrhage, a democrat. i'm not a republican. there was a walls of hate against trump, saying that he was insane saying that he was crazy saying all these things,
10:16 am
and i disapprove of that so much. but i voted for trump in 2016. the trump supporters in california don't. the ones that i knew don't really congregate and, and you, everybody's on the down low about it. you know, every now and then somebody comes to me secretly, quietly. everything has to be secretive, otherwise you're socially ostracize me. so it does sound a little bit like prohibition except this time in a political way. now mr. newman is also very concerned about his family, which is back home, back in california. and he hopes that some day he will be able to see them again in california. as a free man, but so far he sees the chances of that happening as quite slim. he goes down up reporting there for us. the u. s. judge overseeing the high profile homicide child of kyle written house is described media coverage of the polarizing cases, irresponsible, even scary. the defendants charged with killing 2 and wounding another at
10:17 am
a racial justice protest. last year, the judge says the jew to certain media or antics as he described it, he'll reconsider allowing journalists into future cases that oh, when i talked about i problems with the media. when this trial started, we're there in part not full, but in part because of grossly irresponsible handling of what comes out of this trial. i want to see what's being done is really quite frightening. i'm going to think long and hard about i live television trial. well, bear in mind the churches already bought us tv news network m s n b c for the court room on allocations that a freelance producer working for the out of that attempted to influence the ongoing trial by tailing van carrying the jewelry aids against the law to undermine the jury's anonymity, of course not to use john how the next reporting from the cortez in wisconsin boarding to canal police and also the judge overseeing this case of brew schrader
10:18 am
a. a possibly a freelance producer with m. s. n. b, c was pulled over in the vicinity of the jury van after it left, the court house here last night. after day 2 of the deliberations ended, the jury generally goes to an undisclosed location, a hotel, you know, other location for the night. and this person was pulled over suspected a following the jury van and even possibly taking pictures. and when i taught, when confronted by police told police that they were an m s. n b c, producer under instructions from new york to follow this jury van now nbc is distancing itself, released a statement saying it was a freelancer was never, you know, given an assignment to do that. but bottom line here is that the judge is taking it very seriously and has ban now, and emma said be say from further covering in the court the, the ongoing proceedings as media. there are rules and regulations. we have to follow covering trials and cases in here in the united states. i'm sure overseas as well. but, you know,
10:19 am
here in the united states you never take pictures of the jury that's, that's rule number one and it's for the jury safety and also to protect the integrity of the trial. so if it, the embassy, nbc, freelance, producer, producer, whatever was following the jury that, that is, that's a really bad move and it looks, it makes all of us look bad, frankly. so whether that affects the overall proceedings results in a miss trial, probably not. again, it doesn't look like any pictures were posted online or went out of the jury, but it's a serious matter. it's being taken seriously. obviously, as you heard the judge say that said we're in day 3 of the deliberations in the car . rittenhouse homicide trial. he's facing fire charges and could most serious charge homicide murder in other states that would basically if again convicted, he would spend the rest of his life in prison. a jury asked to see very important drone video, which is at the center of the defense teams motion for a mistrial defense saying that they did not receive the same type of high
10:20 am
resolution video that the prosecution had. it's unlikely the judge will declare miss trial based upon that, but it's the 2nd motion for mistrial. the defense team has filed in the last week in regards to the case, a case that has really polarized many americans, those who support right now say he was a hero, defending the property of businesses and homeowners during the riots here in protest and ocean was hot and back in august 2001. i didn't know you say now he acted recklessly. he was a vigilante. you should have never been here when gone. he was already adding to a volatile situation that ultimately turned deadly with him. shooting and killing 2 people. and badly wounding a 3rd wave winter. well on his way to us, europe's energy crazy shows no sign of letting up gas prices a bounce back to the high seat in october the 5 times. and they were just a year ago. the increase came right off to germany suspended certification of that brand new node stream to gas pipeline. for russia,
10:21 am
germany energy regulator insisting paperwork saying this. they say that the pipelines operator has to be registered as a german entity, but nor string to is a company's based in switzerland. we discuss it with a former head of the german parliament's economic, an energy committee close ernst. he says, end of the day with a winter on us, the public a going to suffer does exhibit the only file it's into the other, which this is unfortunate because the german as well as european customers, would eventually pay for such delays into it is necessary indeed that the pipeline opening is expedited as soon as possible for the gas to stop flowing and fill out the storage facilities office. i lost the federal government if the current gas price increase has something to do with russia not fulfilling its contractual obligations. i have received confirmation that russia has failed, all is contracts, and there is no information proving otherwise me. this notion rather shows that here we have politically biased people who blame russia for anything that goes
10:22 am
wrong. that a, again, we do have other pipelines that operational fees, we still have nor stream $1.00 and several other pipelines that allow us to obtain russian gas. however, because the netherlands norway planning to cope gas production, i see that north stream too will be vital to increase the gases implying bringing i can only worn not to further politicize. the issue of europe's energy supply. germany alone has made plenty of mistakes and it will be very wrong to drive to the extreme. it is not that russia does not want to supply, rather it's a problem with those countries of transit that can abuse these circumstances. and so i would like to warn you not to mix politics and not to take advantage of this situation around by the roost, as it may once again, eventually lead to a discussion about the fight of this pipeline was who config news next. that new delhi is considering a new lock turn, but not because a covert, it's actually because of toxic air pollution. with authorities in that indian capital now waiting for
10:23 am
a court approval for the measure to bring it in. the pollutions been linked to the deaths of more than a 1000000 there every year, with new deli notoriously labeled, the world's most polluted capital. among amid the crisis than a coal burning plants and construction sites have been closed, and school children workers told her stay home. my colleague done him, hawkins discussed the measures with a panel of guests in the short term. no, i mean, doesn't this come down to human rights and people deciding what risks they want to take and how they want to live their lives? i mean, if people are form, for example, that there is a high rate of small pollution, they can say at home or where mosque. so choose safety motions. but surely, you know, putting, you know, these are these mass measures in place for businesses, for schools, for construction sites. is this too much of a what some people call nanny state? i think if we had a government messaging, whether it's kind of a door or climate change or anything else and i saw that a decision was given to the emergency when you, when you,
10:24 am
when you're talking about things, you have to take measures early. and then you don't need lock downs, like let's not to get meltdowns are failure, list a last ditch attempt. when governments have to know what the solution is, extreme you're and i don't want to do it. but when you've got an emergency situation where there's a massive peach in toxic pollution like a daily half at the moment that the local government has to take some action to reduce the sources about pollution of the people can still use public transport. they can still walk, they can still cycle, but actually what they're actually talking about in terms of locked down, it's not locking down people, it's locking down vehicles. if you're looking for environmental reasons, it's friday. debates approval on certain calls a huge amount of disruption for a median to long term plan to do with what is a compromise here that can be reached between protecting people's health and
10:25 am
respecting people's a human rights and desire to live freely. normally, it will come from viruses to do one of the big problems, right? with the government u. k. is i absolutely refuse to debate the issues, you know, what happens is shot down a national level. it right. who for sure government sought surrounds and free speech in stock, getting basically guns are that the error is the chain or we can have it ready for you to decide what is the best or action or try a locked out of whack. lockdown is supposed to be used as a last resort when all the other policies that failed it might be potentially effective short term, but it shouldn't be used as a mediums a long term solution. what we really need is a solution to solution. in general, i don't think the measure is forward because
10:26 am
they disrupt population and the economy say march. so it's better to take a long shot plan once you won't h trail each. sissy said today with all the news of the locked out in australia today. tough new measures announced their countrywide crossover subs next with pete lavonne this latest guess it's kevin, now insulting off. thank you for watching this update. and reminder, you without international the global broadcast live from russia. me . ah ah ah,
10:27 am
i me ah join me every thursday on the alex salmon. sure. but i'll be speaking to guess with the world of politics, sport, business, i'm show business. i'll see you then. oh,
10:28 am
we're seeing high levels, one certainty creeping in to eat and only life. and i think with all away of the disruption of global supply chains, we see spike in the cost of energy. we're seeing a reappearance of inflation. and i think all of these constitute on the economy, scroll down to sign risks. it could mean the 2 didn't weather is still ahead of us despite the moderation of the severity of the gaming juices. ah, ah ah
10:29 am
hello and welcome to cross stock. we're all things are considered. i'm peter lavelle. there is no shortage of growing tensions in eastern europe. there is a growing e. u. bear who stands off over illegal migration. there are western reports. russia is amassing troops within its own borders. and of course, there is a self inflicted crisis of european energy supplies. it is no coincidence, some recalling this hybrid war, but whose hybrid war against whom class talking rising tensions, i'm joined by my guess, peter cosmic in washington. he's professor of history and director of the nuclear studies institute at american university as well as co author with oliver stone of the untold history of the united states. also in washington. we have earl west mason. he's the executive vice president of the erasure center and in lake jackson, we cross to daniel mcadams. he is the executive director of the ron paul institute for peace and pro asperity high gentlemen. cross stock rules are the fact that
10:30 am
means you can jump in any time you want. i always appreciate when you do, danny, let me go to you 1st year. i mean, as i said in my introduction, is a lot of things going on right now. we have this growing tension with poland and barrows over immigration, a lot of finger pointing, i must say a lot of a very exaggerated name calling out there doesn't help us understand what's going on. also, we seem to have kind of a revisiting of what happened with what was going on in ukraine and spring of this year of this year. there's encouragement of the care of government. there are, there's caution, there's arms coming in. there's back slapping and we have, we had of germany and the u. k. and, and france come out recently um, upholding the new um, the, the borders and security in the sanctity of ukraine. again, a change of tone from the spring. we also we have the energy situation, the north to stream to our pipeline has been put on fries again here. i mean are
