madison will be successful, very difficult time time to sit down and talk with a historic and 1st and coordination with allies. the united states is releasing strategic oil reserves to bring down petrol prices about the failed attempts to convince opec the boost production. what i will never accept expediency under the guys, we are dissatisfied. he's fueled violence against people. but to prime minister lashes out to protest is off the knights of rioting against tough, new covey restrictions, was cases surge and locked down to re imposed across europe. and the me to new york police survey shows that holden, hob of the cities offices, which they never joined the force. we hear about the growing pressures they do have to work. the officials who campaign or promises they go on to actively prosecute
4:01 pm
cost, or what else could we possibly expect to happen? so they're going to take a step back and this isn't going to make any ones they would say, ah, that live on world wide. this is out international just a midnight here in moscow. now, wednesday, the 24th of november on calling bray with the world news 1st for you. then joe biden has opened america's strategic petroleum reserve making available some 50000000 barrels through the coming months. but despite the unprecedented move, which political rivals claim smacks of desperation and a struggling economy, the president made this rather astonishing boast were experiencing the strongest economic recovery in the world. even after county for inflation, our economy is bigger. and our found is that more money in their pockets than they did before, the pandemic or u. s. correspond accountable, but explains how the decision to open up oil reserves came about. the decision was
4:02 pm
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 about the economy and the rising oil prices. but as you can see on social media, it's kind of have the opposite effect. we see many voices speaking up and calling the move out and rages bite and releasing 3 days worth of oil. that taxpayers already paid for joe biden would rather dip into a strategic oil reserved and put 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 have to negotiate when they know we have no or else to go? the price gouging is just beginning. this comes as 70 percent of the u. s. public
4:03 pm
says they think the economy is moving in a bad direction. the approval ratings of the biden administration are not good binding. 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, as well as energy companies for not passing along the decreases to the consumer. the by did ministration, has repeatedly called on the opec plus countries, 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
4:04 pm
gradually, over the course of the next 3 months. so at this point that we're failing to see any real impact on the oil prices of a host about 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 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, other guy, our oil field, a large the world is actually running low. you know, we're heading into peak oil. there's something we're talking 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,
4:05 pm
has policies of masking their problems by pointing fingers and creating diversions and release things, strategic oil reserve, 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 is covered with cases rising in germany in the netherlands, in the 10s of thousands on tuesday, the w h o said it's the continents number one cause of death. so now tough restrictions are being re imposed in several countries. and that sparking a public outcry in the netherlands at least a 130 people were detained as anti locked down. protests turn violent, the prime minister that calling those responsible idiots. and so to me, 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 guides, if we are dissatisfied, is pure violence against people who are working every day to keep this country safe
4:06 pm
. the neighboring germany daily knew corona virus cases of more than doubled over the last 2 weeks with health care workers. warning that, that being pushed to the limit not even in houston 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 best become available. eventually, 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 well, with more now on the situation in germany. here's your 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
4:07 pm
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't 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 state of sock city and a number of other cities across the country, angular merkel has described this 4th wave of covert 19 as the worst thing the country has faced. while health minister n spawn has painted a bleak picture of the way he sees the current state of affairs. but chinese has been to us probably by the end of this winter or sometime cynically said, pretty much everyone in germany will be vaccinated, recovered or dead. but it's true with the highly contagious delta. very, he's very, very likely. well,
4:08 pm
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 job with all the time. i don't believe that all the locked down will be over after 3 weeks. not even for us vaccinations, 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. the distance was capital math floor and yet still the numbers, right? they'll be nice. i. i think it's not nights it was because at 1st they said that it would opens 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,
4:09 pm
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 the contracted coven. 19 a lawyer, hines maya says the issue of mandatory inoculation is legally complicated. yeah, i lose the edition for fast, sincerely, you're eastern all austrian lawyers, specializing in constitutional law, unanimously. hold the opinion that is 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 is 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,
4:10 pm
it is permissible. why other side of the world there have been opposing rallies in australia. there's people there turn out to support and protests covered restrictions. you authorities of trying to expand their pandemic powers to with a new bill to allow them to reinforce, locked down some vaccine mandates. once the state of emergency and next month when i had a one regent says that anybody opposing the mandates is an anti back sir. you are out there in any way, shape or for campaigning against this man that you are absolutely any tax your personal taxation status is only irrelevant and the accusations continue to fly around. so i discuss for the panel of guests where the government's a failing in their fight against cove. it of course i can see why the people are strong protesting. if you look at the background, brianna, great world dryer. since 2008. that even deeper, 2020 and that, and in that crisis that was brought forward measures against corona with which are
4:11 pm
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 hitting the small companies, the restaurant, 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 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 did feel that their life was threatened. and again, i wasn't there and we didn't see exactly what the situation was. they don't me fire could be justified. it does raise questions as to why offices didn't have less lethal means to combat people, not that the media and they have deemed riotous. we know far more about this disease than we did 2 years ago, more the alternative to lock down some restrictions. so while the antibody levels
4:12 pm
go down within 3 months, doesn't mean that the personal immunity loss, 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, most of 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 8 agents of violence. i do think a criticism of the demonstrators is misplaced, given, is really very draconian restrictions which are rate illogical. governments are facing record levels of mistrust. we saw a survey published, vicente showed doctor a doctors and nurses, well trusted, but and politicians were less trusted than any other member of society. record levels of rocks and we've seen are a very large factor. and people not trusting the message of the government and actually not wanting to take up medical advice from it. so precious being placed on
4:13 pm
new york's police are so great that half wish they'd never joined. according to a leaked internal survey, the head of the cities big as police shooting to claims that new laws and tedious policies are punishing good cause. new york city police officers a well past are breaking point a made diblasio and the outgoing city council as still piling on with policies that punish cops in 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 officers. and that survey the majority said they wish they had 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 year seems sweeping police reforms in the setting containing the right to the authorities to use force and retaining certain suspects. but before any of these
4:14 pm
new policies even came in, officers were already concerned about high levels of crime. and for that they were going to come down any time soon. in fact, almost 80 percent of respondents to the survey. so there wouldn't be an improvement in the city safety for at least the next 2 years. the crime starts back that up a bit as well. they've been riding to 15 percent since august this year. no one responds. the m y p d says that it is taking the poll results into account as it tries to make the department more effective. well, i spoke earlier to one officer that he told me that cops like him have become increasingly stigmatized. every cops i speak to in the y p v just feels that everyone is against them from the public to the elected officials, to the mayor, to even the higher ups the my p just feel like there's no right they can ever do valuable crime fighting tools like stop question frisk were taken away, you know, legal options for people who want to police were expanded. you know, every, every elected official now has a platform. they want to go directly after police. this isn't gonna make anyone
4:15 pm
safe, was going to make cops apprehensive. and empower in bold and criminals. as we've seen up the poll didn't surprise me or didn't surprise long foresman experts at all . you know, like i said, you want to have programs like defun, the police, which are directly going after cops. you have elected officials standing up and they should more empathy towards hard and criminals than towards the police that actually when our in corporate criminals, you know, we have elected officials who campaign promises. we are going to act that we prosecute cops, or what else could you possibly expect to happen, cause we're going to want to go out there risk their future, their, their family, their, their financial will be. so they're going to take a step back and this isn't going to make anyone's, they would say for you know, without the go ahead for us just having a running with the you offer it met with a muslim youth group will tell you why the break
4:17 pm
ah ah, oregon. warsaw was concerned that britain's going to be sending troops to the pony bella roost boarded to help with the migrant crisis that but the u. k. governs also being accused of failing decay with an even bigger immigration problem. the home with the numbers of those try to cross english channel traveling since last year. reporting next from westminster is 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 being accused of double standards when it comes to
4:18 pm
how the united kingdom protects borders. you remember 3 years ago pre to patel 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 route entirely, making it on viable. but what we see in this year is up to 25000 people have 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 white on a joint patrol mission, even though the u. k. as forked out around 54000000 pounds to try and help with this operation. but the french simply say, this is
4:19 pm
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 asylum system. so that the home secretary is saying that this isn't something that can be dealt with over night in comparison though, to the migrant crisis on the polish banner router 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 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, billions locked out. that's around 300000000 pounds. it will be equipped with
4:20 pm
electronic surveillance equipment and topped with barbed wire to not that will be erected in mid 2022. now, the polish administration of thanking and welcoming the british forces to help tighten insecure its border. our border is and will be tight. we will ensure 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. as 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, will they to or condemning the government, they say the british government shouldn't be sending troops to deal with a humanitarian crisis. it's not
4:21 pm
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 embroiled 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 developing rel, between paris and the e. u has outraged french politicians, criticize a beating between the uber quality commissioner on a group, the front branches, islamist, they met in brussels as part of an anti discrimination campaign, but paris calls the talks abnormal moral, my next from charlotte to bench. well, the european commission has found itself in the dog house with france,
4:22 pm
with french ministers blowing up over a meeting that was held last week between the commission and 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 find against this islamist associations that are attacking france and are infiltrating, are very institutions from 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
4:23 pm
a group that is being designated as a terror organization by several are countries and has been banned in those countries. so france says one by meeting with family. so it's given the commission is give it a platform that it shouldn't have. and to why 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 web site. it said it was part of an anti discrimination campaign that was financed by the council of europe. now that campaign focused on women wearing he jobs who were being discriminated against, which is a very sensitive topic here in france that caused such a theory. the french government actually protested against campaign on the plug was pulled on it. now at the time said mister was furious. that, that, that happened and said that france was the country that was exporting the moose
4:24 pm
racism. we are seeing that the french fate is really behind this smear campaign, 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 over 70000 euros famous. so for its part, didn't realize that it has any links to the muslim brotherhood, and it says it's appointed. the frenchman assist are taking the time to essentially de, legitimize the work that he does. but it does appear that france is not about to back down on this particular topic. in fact, there is a suggestion that very soon found me, so could find itself on a list of banned organizations. here in france,
4:25 pm
the gremlins defends chief as want of a massive increase in us strategic bomber activity around russia's borders, including basically disturbing drills, testing nuclear weapons use, so geisha go may. the revelations of talks with his chinese counterpart across the story for us is all he is donald quarter. it looks like both russia and china are ready for deeper cooperation when it comes to mutual defense. and that's because the united states, as posturing itself as a military full of both powers. i mean, it's no secret that china isn't happy about american naval operations in the south china sea, or washington's claim that taiwan is separate from the mainland. as for russia, it looks like the u. s. is taking a more nuclear approach. let's take a listen to what the russian ministry of defense had to say. whether this is, were due this month during the u. s. global thunder, strategic forces exercises 10 us for strategic bombers practice options of nuclear weapons use against russia almost simultaneously from western and eastern directions. based on what was spoken about at this meeting. it looks like the u. s
4:26 pm
. military aggression is actually bringing us, is actually bringing russia and china closer together. the chinese defense minister at the meeting said that the u. s. is using the same aggressive military actions against his country as it is against his russian counterpart. we did hear from the russian defense minister again, who outlined what some of those actions entailed admissions this year. lucia records a significant increase in the activity of us strategic bama ation. in the past month, around 30 flights to the borders of the russian federation have been made, which is 2 and a half times more than in the same period last year. it's likely a joining of these 2 eastern powers wasn't exactly what washington expected to result from. it's increased the nuclear posturing either one of them is a serious is a forced to be reckoned with for washington. but both of them together, that could be a major obstacle for u. s. foreign policy. or for the pentagon analyst miko maloof also didn't expect,
4:27 pm
didn't think the us would expect. didn't expect the us to. sorry, i'll start again. thinks of the us didn't expect russia and sean has moved when you consider that since the disastrous pull out of afghanistan, the united states is once again been trying to agitate both on the, on the western front with, with nato in the black sea area. and now with the indo pacific, somehow to try and rectify its abysmal failure in after 20 years in afghanistan. and i'm afraid that though the united states is beginning to overreact and, and you cannot blame russia and china now to decide to band together and deal with this constant irritant. i think that it is, it is a surprise somewhat to washington, that the 2 have united and all that they're doing really is looking back on the good old days of the cold war when the soviet union and, and,
4:28 pm
and china. so even though they were aligned with one another somewhat, there was that ability to play one off against the other. that's not going to happen today. it reco, corrode a virus deaths in russia, in the last week, scientists, moscow's gambling institute. and now testing a new nasal spray to combat the disease, the deputy head of the institute, which is also behind the sputnik ve kabbage ab told us, why all means it needed in the drive to achieve heard immunity. aah! village of when people gain immunity, either off vaccination or illness, or even a mild form of the illness. after a job, there is heard immunity and it'll surely play its role. as soon as the population becomes immune will 1st and foremost overcome the viruses. lethality, even though it's more difficult to overcome transmissions. a typical problem for acute respiratory viral infections to not get sick, it's necessary to constantly condition the immune system as we do with the flu. of
4:29 pm
course, there may be problems with transmissions, but the most important goal for humanity now is to acquire collective immunity and reduce mortality, and therefore reduce the burden on the health care sector by lowering number of hospitalizations. so doctors can better coat and provide care. so the length of infection is reduced. ha, dana prevents which china is coping very well with the issue population density. there is so high yet. there is no cove. it doesn't represent any regulator. i'm a vaccine developer, but if you ask me, i would say it's necessary to impose a general lockdown is not that inoculated people can't transmit the virus, but that they are tens, hundreds of times less likely to do so. few introduce a lot down. there is no need to segregate society, but you want to share a lot of talking heads that have no knowledge in medicine of virology where they have large audiences and captivate people with devious ideas, which at the same time the voice of those professionals who work in the red zone, who really see how hard it is,
4:30 pm
how many people are dying. a vaccination helps assembly her to a much lesser extent to my mind. it could popularize any vaccination process with any vaccines. we have no experience in mass vaccination of the adult population. we were always vaccinating and protecting the child population. in the majority of cases we happily vaccinate children, but we do not go to get the job ourselves. therefore it's naive to expect that the population will go to get vaccinated all at the same time. it's rather long and hard road where you need to explain show by example. we need specialists to speak sentiment. ah, sure every person perceives lives through the prism of their own consciousness. and it's very difficult to tell them that somewhere out there everything is statistically good. yet anyway, there is no other way rather than to study a pre selected group of people. when you choose a group home vaccinated, you can compare it with a commendable parts of the unvaccinated population. and with the same sample, you estimate how many people got sick among the vaccinated and unvaccinated
