ah, ah, themes of riding and looting gripping the french caribbean territory of what a loop, it's over, ta from you covey rules. while the world health organization defense tough restrictions worldwide saying vaccines alone won't keep people safe. with concerned about the fullest sense of security that vaccines have ended the pundum. you can germany's neck chancellor, olaf shoals calls for mandatory coverage on a daily infection of skyrocket to double the spring peak and politicians class with the eco activists in canada. after a leading campaign or warner, that oil pipelines could be blown up. if the government doesn't take action on climate change.
2:01 am
ah. around the world 247, it's an international life of moscow. with me will research europe's coven death. toll could hit to 1000000 by next spring, that's according to the world health organization. infection rates are surging in the region and the w h o chief is wanting. the vaccines alone won't solve the problem. in many countries and communities with concerned about the fullest sense of security that vaccines have ended the pandemic and that people are vaccinated. do not need to take any other precautions. dear to us. i just that before we arrive on the delta body and vaccines reduce transmission by about 60 percent with delta that has dropped to about 40 percent. the latest spike in case numbers has
2:02 am
prompted countries across europe to re impose cubs italy and grease of bod, unvaccinated people from restaurants and entertainment venues, sweden and france, considering mandatory booster jobs for any one over 40. a powers has also maintaining heavy restrictions on one of his overseas territories that have a guadalupe in the caribbean, but has caused a week of unrest ah, [000:00:00;00] with the writing and guadalupe has prompted franz to deploy extra police to the region and imposed nightly curfews. the leader of the territory. so the intervention has not help matters,
2:03 am
has only made things worse. charlotte dubin ski now reports from paris. man de tree vaccination of health workers was the straw that really broke the camel's back. a legal requirement that's been in place since the middle of september across all french territories. it is one that is being resisted on the caribbean island. oh, well graham, that is the problem. the health pass obligatory vaccination. we have no more freedom here. so we have become violent, that's it. so this problem has been present for a long time. in any case, what we must take from this is that all the french colonies are places where there is misery and violence. and this is going to remain like that are local then the document catalog aware, already been making demands. we have several points to discuss him. unfortunately, it was necessary to arrive at this point, my none the less, they were elected representatives who listened,
2:04 am
but they were not able to understand what we had to say. unfortunately, again, the youth is fed up with this. if they had listened from the day, one would not have arrived at this point is you know, made have you lost? no, nothing is ever been resolved through violence. but i also think that if there are 2 days of uprising, let's say wednesday and thursday on friday, they will decide to send in some police informants to guadalupe. there haven't even been a meeting with locals, the prefect, a meeting with anybody, and they're ready. they are sending forces at the national, under marie intervention group, and the $250.00 police officers and soldiers. where is this going? honestly, does not knock on the french government has already held crises, talks over the violence. it's even sent elite security forces to the islands in a bid to take back control. now that came off, the shots were fired at police officers. you cannot use the health of the french
2:05 am
people to drive political battles. public order must be maintained. there's a situation that is very explosive, is linked to a very local context and detentions we know of, and that a historic, as well as to certain interests that seek to use this context and anxiety. the government is mobilized, while the politicians here in paris scratching their heads to find a solution as to how to quell those protests. the president of the department of guadalupe says the issue, the problems firmly at the doorstep of the french government were asking today to be treated in the same way as in metropolitan france. there are things that we can resolve quickly. we've always asked for support. i've given plenty of alert, sent letters, messages, and made calls. it is unacceptable. we have not seen any minister. and in fact, the last minister of the interior that we saw was bernard cousin iv home to around 400000 people. guadalupe is no stranger to violent protests.
2:06 am
the threat level though has been raised significantly right now. that's because there have been reports that writers managed to break into an armed depot and took rifles. and it's not just in guadalupe where the fires are burning right now. protest, civ, oh, so spreads in neighboring martinique where offices have also been shot at. and there are warnings that this could spark violence in other french overseas territories. to general unease with this french state isn't just apparent on the other side of the atlantic over in the pacific ocean to another island, colonized by frances waiting to cast a vote for teacher one that could seem new caledonia, choose full independence. the result of that referendum in just a few weeks time is expected to be far too close to cool with so many issues
2:07 am
rearing their heads in frances overseas territories, all the same time, the government may be forced to focus on resolving them. and that could come at the expense of events here on the mainland. difficult decisions clearly lie ahead for president mccord. and at a time when he is pleading for a 2nd term in office, his government, inability to control events in so many parts of france are only likely to raise questions about his ability to deliver the security. he's so often promised charlotte even ski r t. paris we spoke with a are guadalupe and socialist senator as well as a member of the national rally party. i think france is playing a dangerous game with a heavy handed treatment of islanders grammar too much. if you don't. the crisis that's flared up. now when guadalupe is not only the results of the health care crisis,
2:08 am
but also from france stepping back from its overseas territories 15 to 20 years ago . but now the vaccination campaign has become a spark that ignited a barrel of gunpowder. it's all the results of abandonment. it's betrayal and contempt towards our compatriots. from guadalupe guadalupe suffers from a high cost of living like other overseas territories, as well as such a shameful thing as a lack of access to drinking water. all of this lead people to run out of patience and get them violence is unacceptable and must be condemned. but it's obvious that we must fight the root of the problem. do yet to fix it, said the law has already been passed personally earlier i advocated optional vaccination, and i oppose mandatory vaccination, which is now opposed by many medical workers at the same time, the threat of a possible fit wave of co that now exists. no one knows if it will happen or not. we see the example of france for a lot of people already vaccinated, but the number of cases is still significantly increasing. it is
2:09 am
a disturbing tendency. germany's chancellor in waiting. oh, la shult says cold for mandatory covert vaccination shots, echoing the outgoing government warning, the country is now dealing with an emergency that says daily case number to the record of 74000 with the overall death toll passing 100000 zeus cursor. the problem is obvious, we are heading for an emergency. the likes of which we have never seen before in this country is that all snake asked is upon the me. the way out of this pandemic is that in institutions where, especially vulnerable groups are cared for vaccination is made mandatory. these are legal, lots of gibbon states and are very imposing strict covert measures. in berlin, hamburg, people can only use public transport if they have a vaccine q r code or a negative p. c. r test. and bavaria among others has re introduced a lockdown with all christmas markets closed this year. and the regional leader has joined calls for mandatory vaccinations nationwide. almost german people are
2:10 am
apparently in favor of that idea. if you believe the latest poll so far around 70 percent of the population is fully vaccinated against cobra, which was originally the considered to be that that of the heard immunity target with the german capital is keeping up the vaccine pressure. people are barred from public transport if they fail to show either proof of vaccination recovery from the illness or a negative test. and we asked berliners what they think as is shown, i find it absolutely right. especially in the current situation, we must be very thorough. personally, i have no issue with this as i want to have safety when getting from a to b. c, i sent it as far if it's difficult from many monday to night, one to get vaccinated, but see one to his public transport. there will have to find other ways to move. i find it in the device. yeah. it's shocking. has a are using case numbers to force us into another lockdown once mr. sanders said,
2:11 am
we are 9 on the scale of $1.00 to $10.00. after your calculus. we are at 9, but that relates to the quality of our politicians and not to the situation that prevails in crowd consumer. so germany is 4th covered wave apparently in full swing . and it's putting a strain on hospitals with intensive care units running at full capacity nationwide . and the vice president of the german nursing council told us how staff a coping this is finally got a few weeks ago. there was discussion about making vaccination, compulsory for nurses. many employees are afraid since there are riskless medical concerns that add up against taking it. but the compulsory vaccination for all discussion has taken root. now, because the viruses reading hearing about compulsory vaccination for all meaning throughout the health sector and other industries is also not unprecedented. it was discussed a few weeks ago since it can be a fast way of containing the virus one. yet the situation was already tant. before
2:12 am
the pandemic, the workload is high in nursing homes and hospitals. it's unsurprising that there's opposition if health workers have to get vaccinated. but if vaccination was made compulsory for every one hesitancy, could be reduced significantly. health workers would be less singled out, and every one being in it together would lead to broader acceptance. this in turn, which create high vaccination rate and increase the chances of containing the wires and subsequently hygiene related called with measures may finally be abolished. moreover, it's a chance to relieve the added pressure of that health clinics and care facility staff are experiencing regardless. so as we mentioned, olaf sholtes is about to become the german chancellor. that's after his party and 2 others agreed to form a new government nicknamed with a traffic light coalition. after the party colors. it took 2 months for the social democrats,
2:13 am
the greens on the free democrats to agree on their terms after the federal election, the cd you party, which leads the outgoing government as wasted no time. and criticizing the coalition different loc, the, the agreement that was presented today is relatively blunt. and in many parts it's vague and the parties fall short of the things they propagated during the election campaign. wouldn't. the dressed agreement document is quite a water 177 pages. it goes over $51776.00 words that is slightly more than f scott fitzgerald novel, the great gatsby. and there is some twists and turns when it comes to how this new government would approach russia. the draft document says that they would be looking for constructive dialogue with moscow. russia is an important international player. we understand the importance of substantial and stable relationships. and we continue to strive for them. we're ready thought constructive dialogue. we will
2:14 am
take into account different threat perceptions and focus on a common and coherent e u policy towards russia. we've heard some speeches from leadership of the 3 parties as they addressed their press conference in berlin, and most of them seeming quite keen to emphasize that there are still points whereby they really disagree with their coalition. foreigners, this agreement has to be put to the membership of the individual parties and they will agree upon it. it does seem like an almost nailed on thing that will happen low. who are we getting at the top of the pile? who's going to be the new chancellor? all af schultz is his name. he was the finance minister and vice chancellor in the last government headed out by anglo merkel when it comes to we style of leadership . it is pretty much more of the same from the outgoing chancellor. he is regarded as a very rational man. as a pragmatist on a number of issues, you can see that by when it comes to russia, he has been critical of russia on several issues in the past,
2:15 am
but also has backed so supported nord stream to the gas pipeline. that takes gas from russia to germany. under the baltic sea, when it comes to saying good bye to the old leadership though, are left sholtes handed over anglo merkel, an interesting present, as they met for their last cabinet meeting for the chancellor, receiving a dogwood bush from or le schoultz. now doug would symbolizes durability and the ability to overcome many obstacles, some could say that was well testament to the, the legacy that angle america leaves from her time in the chancellor's job. this is a very different present though, that vladimir putin, the russian president, gave anglo merkel on their last meeting president putin opting for, probably more traditional, nice big bunch of flowers. we talked to, i believe, emma, a german lawyer and politician who thinks that coalition certainly has its work cut
2:16 am
out. it is too early to see it on the same sunday. and there was the question being delayed by john on the huge tech problem is about the involvement of what are being on a particular he was bank. and the question was no, not in the campaign. the question whether the candidate will live in a political in the next to lead to home the government just because the thing i'll put it in there is not enough in the german edition, it would be more proactive if they would phone a great coalition on all upon the government to deal with this and you
2:17 am
would really situation are sold to come here on the program on our t canadian, a eco warriors or at loggerheads with the government, but some warning of drastic action if politicians fail to address a climate crisis. that story and many others, we're back in about $0.60 a join me every 1st day on the alex summon show and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport. business. i'm show business. i'll see you then. me . oh, seemed wrong. well please just don't. oh,
2:18 am
i mean you won't have to shape out the scene because the african and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves will to part, we choose to look for common ground. if you know that this is the for a 100 year anniversary of the very 1st thanksgiving, think about that 400 years of thanksgiving in north america. really an incredible miles down oh, into the 2nd half of the program we go here on arts. he and the canadian government has a fight on his hands with environmental groups warning of extreme action if the country fails to cut its carbon emissions, a spokesman for extinction, rebellion that said,
2:19 am
the consequences in canada and elsewhere could prove deadly. not only will pipelines be blown up, but we can be certain that worldly is will be put on trial for treason or worse be killed. a stipend was made in support of canadian scientist on campaign a. david suzuki, who's been accused of inciting violence authorities and the countries main oil producing region. alberta have moved to formally condemned suzuki suggestion that pipelines could be blown up. we're in deep sleep. do do. this is what we've come to the next stage after this that going to be pipelines blown up. if our leaders don't pay attention to what's going on, it's absolutely an implicit or winking incitement to violence. this is totally irresponsible on the part of david suzuki. i think statements like that are not helpful in terms of climate change and climate action is government takes that very seriously. that's why we have a very solid climate action plan. that's the way that we're going to address
2:20 am
climate change. not by making statements that will alarm people cause concern. david suzuki and 85 year old geologist who was speaking during and extinction rebellion protest in the city of victoria. the rallies followed floods that killed 4 people in british columbia. i'm a why they blamed on climate change. meanwhile, so suki is own foundation has tried to distance itself from his comments assisting . the activist only speaks for himself. but the group went on to say that campaign is all frustrated. a government inaction and david suzuki himself denies inciting violence, saying he doesn't support destroying pipelines, but also it doesn't regret his words. we discussed the story with a pair of guests. david suzuki says, result is going to be that pipelines are blown up. always saying is that canadians are frustrated by the canadas hypocrisy when it comes to the environment. and
2:21 am
actually the man is 100 percent correct. he did not call for illegal activity. he is merely expressing the frustration of canadians at the hypocrisy of our governments. while the canadian government is making these climate commitments at the same time, the canadian government bought a pipeline to extract very polluting car sans oil. the british columbia government is trying to push a pipeline through native land, the wet to wet and land, and other native lands that the people do not want. i think actually someone with his prominence and exposure saying such thing. whether there were men directly or not provide the mechanism in it and it. busy is platform a reaches many people and you've got, you've got different sectors in the environmental 3rd that are very green. you can
2:22 am
say strong messages without navigating some type of illegal activity or some type of things is wrong. environmentalists will ever be satisfied with any about to expect everyone to jump in to green environment is unrealistic. 27 people have been confirmed dead after a migrant boat capsized off the north coast of france on wednesday. the victims include a young girl is the worst of a tragedy involving asylum seekers attempting to reach britain and both france and the u. k. have placed the blame on human trafficking gangs. this disaster underscores how dangerous it is to cross the channel in this way. and it also shows how vital it is that we now step up our efforts to break the business model of the gangsters who are sending people to see her in this way. strong emotions over
2:23 am
the many deaths caused by the cap sizing of a migrant boats in the english channel. we must condemn the criminal nature of the smugglers who organized these crossings. i'm currently headed to the scene. the alarm was 1st raised by french fishermen who spotted dozens of bodies floating in the sea near calais and oven i. vigil was held in the port town for those who died . at least 30 people were on the overcrowded inflatable dinky. only 2 of them were rescued and one is still missing. well, my god crossings to the u. k via the channel have surge this year with more than $25000.00 people surviving the hazardous trip. and so 3 times more than 2020 in london is urged france to do more to stop the boat setting off. or the mayor of cali says the u. k. has failed to uphold its own obligations. the immigration lawyer, robert parkin thinks the you case failure to work with the e. u has made matters worse. the french aren't doing enough, we're not doing enough. ah, there's no c ways round that the,
2:24 am
the problem really is that, that's emerged recently is the termination of what's called the dublin and what was called the dublin convention. or the british governments mistake has been to withdraw unilaterally from the dublin convention at that. betty's crime merrily. the reason why things go wrong. this year that convention ceased as of the end of last year. we withdrew from that with no plans to replace it. sam, and that means course that no one can now be returned. france, essentially, that's the, that's the bottom line at there and there are no plans to improve that position in the future. so the numbers occur busier. i'm sorry, say the sort of horrible tragedy is the inevitable result. an american whiskey maker has told people not to buy their written house right, if they're doing so to support teen shoot a car written out the company have and hill says the case is no cause for
2:25 am
celebration. we've been disheartened to learn that some individuals and businesses have been using our written how straight wry whisky brand to celebrate the kyle written house verdict, despite the profound loss of life from those events. the rittenhouse verdict, st. shockwave through america an 18 year old, coll rittenhouse was acquitted of all charges offered fatally shot to white people during a black lives matter of protest in wisconsin. or the lack of arms. a statement though has drawn a mixed public reaction. i know a lot of whiskey drinkers. i know a lot of conservatives. i don't know any one who toasted the actions or verdict under discussion. another attempt to divert our attention and divide us. why in the world would you choose to jump into politics? victor said, and they chose to side with corruption and evil. exactly. and now that everybody knows sales, they're even going to go up more brilliant marketing. they've independent journalist a dave lind off,
2:26 am
gave us his view on the story. i don't think the thought of causing it does division in society crossed the minds of the marketing people at written house. i think what they were doing was figuring out a way to make some money off of a news event. and they figured probably they would sell a lot of whisky to about a lot of liberals. if they, if they said, don't buy it because it's being it, you don't want it toast that name. you know, the companies are not in the business of creating political division. what they're doing is trying to, trying to make money and everybody knows that. i mean, it's a capitalist society and people understand that. so i'm just guessing that it's, it's a sort of a backwards logic that if they call for a boycott, you're going to see a lot of parties in, you know,
2:27 am
rich liberal households where they'll probably serve written house as the drink of choice. and people will say they're drinking it because they took a stand on the written in house verdict, or to the mother headline for you in brief, from all around the world. the indian trade unions are protesting against us. corporate giant, amazon, accusing it of selling drugs online. that's off the indian police charge to stop at a regional amazon branch of trafficking marijuana by passing drugs office. a sugar substitute. as we understand, i was on india has denied the allegations and long queues of forming a petrol stations all across pakistan as citizens rush to refuel their vehicles ahead of a nationwide strike by the petroleum dealers association at the group. only i said that around $8000.00 facilities would remain closed off the government, refused to increase that profit margin and to iraq where protesters of lit fires
