1:00 pm
ah ah, and a historic 1st and coordination with allies, the united states is releasing strategic oil reserves to bring down petrol prices up to failed, attempts to convince opec to post production what i will never accent is idiots who under the guys that we are dissatisfied. he's pure violence against people that are prime minister lattice out of protest is off the nice of rioting against tough new coping restrictions as cases surge unlocked downs, a re imposed across europe. and a link to new york police survey shows that more than half of the cities offices wish they'd never joined the force. we hear about the growing precious we have to work the officials, boom campaign or promises we're going to actively prosecute cops,
1:01 pm
or what else could you possibly expect to happen? so they're gonna take a step back and this isn't going to make any ones they would saver. ah, let's good happy with this tuesday evening at 9 here in moscow. my name is colleen bright. welcome to you. we'll news from alta international 1st for you this out in an unprecedented move, president biden has opened america's strategic petroleum reserve making available some 50000000 barrels through the coming months. with the details, his kind of open the decision was made in coordination with other major energy consumers such as india, japan, and south korea in response to the fact that oil exporting countries have not made the decision to ramp up the oil supply as the biden administration has repeatedly request it now many have looked on and seen this is potentially a p r move on the part of the biden administration to show that they are concerned
1:02 pm
about the economy and the rising oil prices. but as you can see on social media, it's kind of had the opposite effect. we see many voices speaking up and calling the move outrageous boyden releasing 3 days worth of oil. that tax pays already paid for joe biden would rather dip into a strategic oil reserve and puts americans to work in the energy industry bite and gave away our biggest bargaining chip when he shut down domestic oil production. what incentive would opec caps negotiate when they know we have no or else to go? the price gouging is just beginning. this comes as 70 percent of the us public says they think the economy is moving in a bad direction. the approval ratings of the biden administration are not good by didn't ministration has attributed the, the rise in gas prices and to the global oil supply, essentially not keeping pace with the world economy that is now recovering from the pandemic. now they've blamed other countries for holding back oil supplies,
1:03 pm
as well as energy companies for not passing along the decreases to the consumer. the by did ministration, has repeatedly called out the opec countries. opec is led by saudi arabia and russia and said that they should pump more oil in the hopes of getting the price down. opec countries that represent roughly 77 percent of the world's crude oil reserves. they have declined to do that essentially. and they're sticking to their plan for only modest increases. you know, you have to remember oil consumption in the states is roughly 18 to 19000000 barrels per day. so biden is essentially releasing about 3 days worth of oil very gradually over the course of the next 3 months. so at this point they were failing to see any real impact on the oil prices a bit earlier. the host of the flagship financial, the kaiser report says biden's move won't solve the underlying issues. it's never going to go down. we're only going to see oil prices rise now. for the
1:04 pm
foreseeable futures, for years and years because of the mass of money printing that's gone on, remember, oil is priced in dollars in the us is printing trillions and trillions of dollars or de basing their currency saudi arabia, their gas, or oil sale, the large, the world is actually running low on there are heading into peak oil. there's something we should talk about more 10 years ago before the fracking boom hit. but the fact is that the cost of getting this oil out and gas is nowhere near where it has been in the past. you know, america is, has policies of masking their problems by pointing fingers and creating diversions, and releasing strategic oil reserves and to drop in the barrel. it will have no impact whatsoever. they're not addressing the true problem. europe's in the grip of another wave of coven, with cases rising in germany, in the netherlands, in the 10s of thousands right now. as
1:05 pm
a response tough restrictions of being re imposed across the continent, sparking a public outcry in the process. the authorities in the netherlands of detained, at least a 130 people as anti locked down protests turned violent, the prime minister calling most responsible idiots and excel as a prime minister. as a liberal, i will always defend demonstrations in this country as part of our democracy, of our rule of law. what i will never accept is idiots who under the guise, if we are dissatisfied, he's pure violence against people who are working every day to keep it come to say it kills a neighboring germany daily. new corona virus cases have more than doubled over the last 2 weeks with health care workers warning that being pushed to the limit. nothing even these who have been working here for 5 years. and the situation has never been as bad as it is. now. we are completely overwhelmed with an incredible number of patients. we no longer have an intensive care unit. all this patients are waiting until bats become available. eventually,
1:06 pm
patients that need to go and ventilators will be in the emergency department, rather than in the intensive care unit. there should actually be 7 nurses on duty, but we only have 4 and sometimes 3. it is not clear how we can take care of patients adequately instruct you in 5 more now on the situation in germany. here's our year of correspondent. what is the serious debate sounds away in germany right now? well, the, whether the country should follow australia is lead and making vaccines. mandatory austria will make that move from the 1st of february of next year. the debate in germany is really over whether it would be legal or not under the current constitution. there are other measures being taken though, in some regions in germany or imposing nighttime curfews saying you can go out of your home after 10 pm. while this, if you've stood guard, becomes the latest region, the latest area to cancel christmas markets for the festive period. following on from the state of bavaria, the states of saxony and
1:07 pm
a number of other cities across the country. angular miracle has described this 4th wave of covert 19 as the worst thing the country has faced, while health minister and spawn is painted a bleak picture of the way he sees the current state of affairs, the chinese and the thesis been to us probably by the end of this windsor, the sometime cynically said, pretty much everyone in germany will be vaccinated, recovered or dead. but it's true with the highly contagious delta vary. this is very, very likely. well, in australia they are into the 2nd day of the latest national coven locked down. it will last for at least 10 days could go on until the 13th of december. people there though, and people here in germany as well, have been expressing their concerns that the actions taken by the government. haven't been the right one off. i don't believe at all. the lock down will be over after 3 weeks. not even for us vaccinations,
1:08 pm
but it is what it is. too late too late. especially the mandatory vaccination which should have been implemented earlier. not in february. we thought what did the last few months bring vaccinations were done? tests were done. distance was capital masked floor and yet still the numbers rise. i. i think its not nice because at 1st they said that it would open up, but then they built everything and then we are told that it must be close and cannot open in slovakia and the czech republic, covert cases are all so soaring. in fact, in those 2 countries from monday, extra restrictions have come into place barring the on vaccinated from hotels, bars, hair, dresses, and almost all public events. as the fear is that intensive care beds will be well, they'll run out of intensive care beds due to the sheer number of people that contracted coven. 19 lawyer hines, maya says,
1:09 pm
the issue of mandatory inoculation is legally complicated. yeah, i lose the occasion for foss. some silly reason, all austrian lawyers specializing in constitutional law unanimously hold the opinion that's common. mandatory vaccination is permissible when the situation requires it. it means that mandatory vaccination is a suitable means to prevent serious threats to human health. looking at the current situation and what viral did you say about it? this is exactly the case. therefore, here, only when mandatory vaccination is formulated at the level of law. can we say whether or not is possible, but in general, it is permissible. on the other side of the world or a been opposing rallies in australia, those people there turn out to support and protest kobe restrictions. the authorities are trying to expand their pandemic powers with a new bill to allow them to reinforce, locked down. and vaccine mandate wants the state of emergency ends next month. a bad one region says that anybody opposing the mandate is an anti vac, sir. you are out there in any way, shape or form campaigning against this man,
1:10 pm
that you are absolutely any fax, your personal taxation status is only irrelevant and the accusations continue to fly around. so earlier i discussed with a panel of guests whether government's or failing in their fight against covered of course, i can see why the people of course drama protesting. if you look at the background briana, great world economy crisis since 2008, that even deeper, 2020 in that, in that crisis that was brought forward measures against corona with which are not consistent in favor of the people. but for example, in favor of big companies and then there is a kind of a lock down, which again is more repeating the small companies, the restaurants, the small cultural industry. some of the protests that we've seen over the past week, they've been a little bit agitated, but i think by far the most ferocious has been in the netherlands with the police
1:11 pm
opening fire there. is that an appropriate response? i think it really depends on the circumstances that that police officer found themselves in. if offices are really genuinely didn't feel good. i like was threatened and i'm again, i wasn't there and we didn't see exactly what the situation was. they don't defy, i could be justified. it does raise questions as to why offices didn't have less lethal means to combat people that are the media. and they have deemed riotous. we know far more about this disease than we did 2 years ago where they alternative to knock down some restrictions. so while the antibody levels go down within 3 months, doesn't mean that the personal immunity last, but in fact, that the rate of transmission is not altered. so then the conceptually, the idea that you quarantine or restrict in some way, those who haven't been vaccinated versus those who have doesn't have any actually impact on the spread we've been told her, the protest is our idiots there by the dutch prime minister. and that they are the
1:12 pm
8 agents of violence. i do think a criticism of the demonstrators is misplaced, given, is really very draconian restrictions which are at any rate illogical. government are facing record levels of mistrust resort. a survey published it since he so dr. doctors and nurses will trusted, but the politicians were less trusted than any other member of society. reco levels approximately seen, or a very large factor. and people not trusting the message of the government and actually not wanted to take up medical advice. for so has confirmed the britain will be sending troops to the poland bella roost border to help with the migrant crisis there. but the u. k. government being accused of failing to cope with an even bigger immigration problem at home, where the numbers of those trying to cross the english channel tripling since last year, reporting from westminster, his shoddy edwards dashti. well pretty patel. the home secretary is being accused of totally losing control of the migrant crisis on the english channel class. she's
1:13 pm
being accused of double standards when it comes to how the united kingdom protects borders. you remember 3 years ago, pretty protell said that she would make crossings on the english channel, an infrequent phenomenon. then later on more recently, she said she would shut off the written tale, making it on viable. but what we seen this year is up to $25000.00 people of cross english channel headed to the british shoals. in the last few weeks, numerous occasions over a 1000 people have made that perilous journey. and very sadly, in recent weeks, around 10 people have lost their lives, making that journey too well. both sides of the english channel is simply blaming each other. what we're seeing is a slight tit for tat, coming from the british and the french basically a wall of words. but the united kingdom, as says at the french refusing to keep its word on a joint patrol mission, even though the u. k. as folks are around 54000000 pounds to try and help with this
1:14 pm
operation, but the french simply say, this is a british problem. and now the home secretary is almost back tracking on what she said, that this isn't a quick fix solution. this problem will take time to fix and that there is no silver bullet. the only solution is whole scale reform of our silence system. so that the home secretary is saying that this isn't something that can be dealt with overnight. in comparison though, to the migrant crisis on the polish by the root of border, while the united kingdom got involved in that almost immediately as the crisis i was developing some weeks ago, the united kingdom deployed a small, a team to assist in the operations on the polish side, what we're seeing more recently as an additional 100 troops will now help to reinforce the frontier and adding to all of this. the u. k. has now signed an agreement with tone and missing. even help build a wall to stop migrants from getting in. now this moral is expected to cost $1.00,
1:15 pm
billions locked out. that's around 300000000 pounds. it will be equipped with electronic surveillance equipment and topped with barbed wire to now that will be erected in mid 2022. now, the polish administration of thanking and welcoming the british forces to help tighten insecure its border. a border is and will be tight. we will insure poland security with the support of british troops. a company of british soldiers will be deployed to serve alongside polish soldiers as soon as possible, hopefully later this month. well, both campaign is on the left and right of politics here in the united kingdom are far from happy in slamming this move on the right. they say that the british government is essentially showing a double standards because it's not really dealing with the crisis on the english channel, but almost immediately it's trying to alleviate the crisis on the polish border, plus campaign is on the left. well, they too are condemning the government. they say the british government shouldn't
1:16 pm
be sending troops to deal with a humanitarian crisis. it's not a military one. so why send the troops and particularly pay attention to the fact that these people are helpless. refugees fleeing west in it generated conflicts. so 2 issues here, very different issues regarding asylum seekers at the united kingdom is broiled in one here at home. and one abroad. one though, we're seeing more rhetoric rather than action to try and deal with it. but then if we look over to the polish border, very, very different tactics being used by the united kingdom. some say though a slippery slope that those tactics could then be deployed here in the united kingdom to next. the precious being placed on new york's police are so great that half which they never joined according to leaked internal survey ahead of the cities because police shooting to claims that new laws and tedious policies are punishing good cult. new york city police offices, a well past breaking point,
1:17 pm
a made diblasio and the outgoing city council as still piling on with policies that punish cops and a road public safety. the intolerable environment. and our sub standard pay has every cop looking to get out as soon as they can. or his fears are shared by 56 percent of the cities offices. in a recent survey, the majority said they wish they chosen a different career, citing public distrust and disrespect and a lot even said that they're afraid to pursue criminals for fear of being sued. this, she has seen a sweeping police reforms in the city, curtailing the rights of the authorities to use force to restrain suspects. but even before those new policies came in, offices were already concerned by high levels of crime in m y c. and believe that they're not going to come down any time soon. either. those stats also show that nearly 80 percent of respondents, so that wouldn't be any improvement in the city safety, at least in the next 2 years. crime to it up almost 15 percent since august or in
1:18 pm
response to our my p d says that it is taking the poll results into account as it tries to make the department more effective. i spoke with one officer that he says that cops like him that become increasingly stigmatized. every cops i speak to in the n y p d, just feels that everyone is against them. from the public to the elected officials, to the mayor, to even the higher ups the mit just feel like there's no right they can ever do viable crime. fighting tools like stop question frisk were taken away. you know, legal options for people have one, assume police were expanded, you know, every, every elected official bow has a platform. they want to go directly after police. this isn't making, when safer was going to, was may cops apprehensive and empower in bold in criminals. as we've seen, the poll didn't surprise me or didn't supplies love, law enforcement experts at all. you know, like i said, you want to have programs like defun, the police, which are directly going after cops and you have elected officials standing up and
1:19 pm
they should more empathy towards hardened criminals than towards the police that actually went out in court. those criminals, you know, when you have elected officials, who campaign on promises, were they going to act that we prosecute cops, or what else could you possibly expect to happen? caps ongoing when i go out there risk their future, their, their family, the on their, their financial well being. so they're going to take a step back and this isn't going to make any ones they would safer. nazi for moscow still ahead, france is having a run in with the a year after it met with a muslim youth group will tell you why a manascale is often the brake with ah
1:20 pm
ah, ah . so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy even foundation, let it be an arms race is on offense. very dramatic development. only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult time time to sit down and talk ah
1:21 pm
ah, all american casualties of being reported from a series of explosions of munitions factory near the serbian capital bow grade. while the new lesson people have been injured of the plan that according to local media reports, videos are being shed on line, showing huge smoke clouds billowing from the same witnesses say the ground shook from force of the bluffs around a 100 work as a full drooping at the facility at the time of the incident developing route between paris and the e. u was outraged french politicians criticize a meeting between the e u equality minister and a group that france brands islamist. they met in brussels as part of an anti discrimination campaign. with paris calls the talks abnormal moral mat next from charlotte to ben sky. well, the european commission has found itself in the dog house with frogs, with french ministers blowing up over a meeting that was held last week between the commission and
1:22 pm
a muslim youth organization. several high profile ministers here in france really blasting the fact that that meeting took place saying that the commission, which met with this group called famous so was meeting with an islamist association that has been attacking france of on this he did were referring to the matter to the commission in order to fight against this islamist associations that are attacking france and are infiltrating, are very institutions. it is absurd. indeed, we are now approaching the european commission. don't let anything go. why is this great cause such as well? it's done so on several levels. it's been around for about 25 years. and in the last decade or so, it's apparent you received 3 lots of funding directly from the european commission frenchman this is also say has links with the muslim brotherhood. this is a group that is being designated as
1:23 pm
a terror organization by several are countries and has been banned in those countries. so france says one by meeting with families. so it's given the commission is key for the to platform that it shouldn't have. and to, by financing it, it's financing womic extremism, but feminist has also caused some other upsets here in france, just in the last few weeks on its website. it said it was part of an anti discrimination campaign that was financed by the council of europe. that campaign focused on women wearing he jobs who were being discriminated against, which is a very sensitive topic here in france that cause such a theory. the french government actually protested against campaign on the plug was pulled on it now at the time feminist. so was furious that, that, that happened and said that france was the country that was exporting the moose racism. we are seeing that the french state is really behind this smear campaign,
1:24 pm
the censoring of the human rights campaign. and we are seeing that family paris is currently the capital of western prejudice. now the commission has denied that fantasy has received any money, but all she has seen a written statement from 2015 shows that at least in 2012 the group received funding just 17000 euros famous. so for its part didn't realize that it has any links to the muslim brotherhood, and it says it's to point to the french me, this is all taking the time to essentially de, legitimize the work that a dove. but it does appear that frances north, back to back down on this particular topic. in fact, there is a suggestion that very soon feminist could find itself on the list of banned organizations. hearing from bush's federal internet watchdog is demanding more than a dozen big tech companies. offer open representative offices in the country to
1:25 pm
comply with national laws as he goes down off explains next. it's all about accountability, basically, so that the russian government has it easier reaching out to these internet giants whenever the russian government rules that some content on those platforms violates rushes laws. essentially, there are 13 names on the list, including such obvious picks as apple, google, as spotify, twitch, tick, tock, and so on. so all these companies, basically, every company with an active, daily use, an audience of half a 1000000 people or more. they will have to open their will bureaus, representative offices here in russia. they should provide an electronic feedback form on their website for russian uses. sets up a personal accounts on the ross, comments or website for communications with the authorities. include the recommended visit to counter on the publication and foreign entities are obligated to restrict access to information that violates russian law. so lady,
1:26 pm
there has been an increase in the number of cases when the russian authorities had to contact some of these giants and have them take down some content that the courts here have ruled to be well illegal. for example, facebook is facing a fine of about 110th of its revenue along with google, which can pay up to 10 percent of its revenue as well, in fines here in russia. so when these joins, along with other companies, open their regional bureaus here, russia's will collect as will have an easier job. i've been swans got the latest been bus for you from washington. sure. laid off to which i'll be here to update you on the big stories were tracking here at opti in moscow for now that from the t i for watching. ah, ah,
