10:01 am
monday, the 29th of november here in moscow. welcome to the program. lo from artes, world news h q. my name's kevin owen. i've got our latest for you. of the next 30 minutes. as you heard it's covey new. sadly, again, to start late on it, i'm across causing havoc around the world, the new coven mutations been highlighted today as a variant of concern by the well, why the world health organization and has already been detected in multiple countries. now, there are also shares, it's highly contagious, and even those who are fully vaccinated could easily get it. nations have been scrambling to do what they think is the right thing. they've already started closing their borders to prevented spread. the 1st, the images meantime of the new strain originally detected in south africa have been published by italian researches on the righteous thing on the crown. on the left, the delta vary and you see a lot more read on the right there, showing many more mutations this time around. and that means apparently the virus has yet further adapted, but it's not yet clear. extremely important to stress whether it's more dangerous
10:02 am
or not. the still working that out, they think 8 to 10 days for they get a better handle on it. but as i say, well, governments are trying to find that out. many people have found themselves stranded in south africa, has traveled, bands were quickly imposed. paula slayer, a correspondent, reports than from johanna's bergs airport. this elation desperation, frustration, and anger. these are just some of the emotions that people here in south africa are experiencing. i'm here on the tambo important one is that this is the main international airport in south africa. and as you can see, the airport is practically deserted. a far cry from the scenes we saw just a short time ago when thousands of people were riding here disk. but to get on any available flight. often announcement was made that most international travel in and out of african states was being implemented. that announcement came as a complete surprise. you had people that were waiting boarded that was sitting on
10:03 am
planes about to take off that they had to just involve you had people that were waiting in the skies flying that had to turn around and come back. the situation such is that you now have tens of thousands of people who are stranded here in south africa. people who need to get back to jobs and families. and at the same time, you have so many people aboard. many of them south africans desperate to get into the country. many of them have not been able to visit for at least 2 years. and they have loved ones, some of whom are sick, some of whom are elderly, here in the country, and waiting to see them. i said to them, okay, i'm coming to check in. will i be able to get home? i'm only going for 10 days, just my mother. and she started the computer interested. all the flats for december had been cancelled. so if you go, you can get back. and if you get back, you're going to total our team for 2 weeks and i've got 2 boys and i just knew that i, i actually had to knock that flat and i was devastated and hop broken. i've got
10:04 am
double vaccinated up what a booster shot. i had all the documentation i could have got on the fly, and that would have taken me to south africa back australia supposedly borders to that they wouldn't allow anybody to come back into the country. and so i feels excessive and i feel very sadden. but i feel like the other information is making them really concerned just in a few days. everything's changed. i was out, i got a message from a friend, i'm checking the news and then more and more news updates had to keep checking. not knowing what would happen, i mean, within 3 days, i mean it's all just completely changed and there's no way that i can go back. i've been vaccinated 3 times, so i am as vaccinate as could be it wouldn't make any difference. i do congratulate the, well, the leaders for taking such a quick action, but i do think that they really need to be properly informed before making decisions that really affect the lives of so many people. the prices for the few
10:05 am
remaining flights out of here have skyrocketed as has the cost of mandatory cova testing. now the international community is very cognizant of the fact that as many as 7 out of 10 south africans have not been vaccinated. and this is partly because they're not enough vaccines in the country. and also because many south africans are worried about the long term effects of the vaccines that are on the market. now, south african scientists have been very vocal in saying that they were the 1st to come forward and be transparent about this new variant that has been found. and since it's not a south african very end, and that it is elsewhere in the global community, that instead of being applauded, south africa has now been push on the blacklist policy r t to hattiesburg south africa. thus picture, the mean term advisor to the italian health authority says the current preventative measures are only having a quote limited impact on the new stroke. and it could be
10:06 am
a reality for years to come mean time, not too far away from italy, the u. k. reintroducing quarantined in a government mandated hotel for people coming in from south africa on britain's health. secretary also says he believes cove is going to be with us in some form forever. he was asked to learn to live with cove and we will never defeat it. we have to learn to live with it. we have to learn to live with it as we have learned to live with flu. of course it is not flu and we need to learn more about in cases of omnicom have already been discovered in germany and belgium chakra public. and there are at least 13 cases in the netherlands that came after a flight of individuals came in from south africa. now, in a separate development, dutch police had to read a plane just before it was about to take off. after it emerged that 2 of the passengers on board had been in a quarantine hotel and had escaped from that desperately trying to leave the
10:07 am
netherlands to try and get home as that panic is spreading. it turns out that the quarantine hotel that they had escaped from there were individuals who had presented with the omnicom strange, you really get a sense of just how scared people are at the moment. some individuals are now facing lengthy stays in quarantines, which are incredibly costly. particularly in the u. k. for me there is just no ways i can afford 50000 rand, which is equivalent to 2 and a half 1000 pounds to be in a hotel in london. when my home is around the corner. and i live on my own where i can self oscillate. and secondly, with the job that i was meant to start. if i'm now i'm starting approximately 3 weeks later, which means i'm 3 weeks without a seller which is basic. i've worked it out which is basically my rent money for the month. i'm a british citizen, i've lived there for 23 years. i have to find
10:08 am
a way the government has to do something about the hotel quarantine and people are up in oars that got government con, make these rulings, and then expect the citizens to pay for it. you know, for those who were fully vax, as we heard from those individuals facing problems from south africa, they really thought perhaps this pandemic was about to be over, at least for them because they followed all of the guidance. they done everything that they were asked to have done. so this must be coming now is a bit of a cold shower for people in europe to realizing that having 2 or 3 jobs just isn't enough. when we faced these new strains that we know so little about in france, the french health ministers resigned to the fact that omnicom will be found here and says that the government needs more time to look at it. they don't use if you don't know if they only tell you since it's circulating in the u. k. italy, in belgium, it's probable that there is a case in circulation. and france researchers are looking at whether vaccines must be modified, but it's too early to say, since it was only discovered
10:09 am
a few days ago. scientists who i spoke with on the telephone yesterday, including internationally say we need a period of around 10 days to no war. meanwhile, the ministers, the health ministers from the g 7 countries will meet later on monday to discuss this new variant and how it possibly can be tackled at the same time as the experts . i really left in a situation with a race to understand exactly what this mutation means and what that means for the a fight for the end of this pandemic. in other developments, says western governments pushed their citizens to get a boost, a shot that now the world health organizations express opposition to rich nations extending their not collection programs or at the same time vaccination rates remain low. busy in poor countries, case employed across much of africa, for example, less than 10 percent of the population as even had a single dose. no more vaccines should go to countries that have already vaccinated more than 40 percent of their population. until kovacs has the vaccines,
10:10 am
it needs to help other countries get there to no more boosters should be administered except to immunocompromised people. most countries with high vaccine coverage continue to ignore our call for a global monitor him on boosters. it is a huge point of contention and conversation right now, we put it up for debate them with pamela guests. it would make no sense to ensure that most people at least get their 1st dose of the vaccine love and then pushing for people to have the the booster. but then i think, oh importantly, we have to look at the efficacy of the actual vaccine because we still know that people who have some photos you can still policy and then also still and be affected by the virus or finance. ready one of the issues that i think they should be really nifty. now i've seen that education is key because we do still have
10:11 am
a lot of hesitant people. not we're not wanting to take the vaccine. and also, just really, it just seems quite unfair that they still mandate in ice is now mandatory that health workers should have the vaccine. i think it should also include education, the immunity generated by vaccination. decays, it over time, particularly actually in the elderly, the most vulnerable, and certainly after 6 months, these boosters just really have a really significant impact. seeing that in real world data from israel, for instance, where they rolled out the booster campaign. so we can see the value of booster shot, you know, various are going to continue to be generated. ready was that was the virus is allowed to spread, particularly in countries, indeed like south africa where vaccination, right? so lower than what this emphasizes the need to control the pandemic at the global level as well as locally. and it's all, it is in all our interests to support the role of axis across the world. and we should be in a position where every to choose should be supporting the increased manufacturing
10:12 am
distribution of vaccines. and we should choose boosters for the most vulnerable an hour late. and whether or not somebody else who hasn't been back friday gets their 1st job. so any worry for a sol as is he, coven baron, spreads across the world. we'll meet some aside to that couple of people in hot water, joe biden, and the mayor of san francisco as well, facing a public by lot of to violating their own mask mandates. easy a pit all into the and if you can find out more, read the back story, get the scoop the. busy r c dot com brand new and want to show you this multiple casualties from a severe storm that's bad for mr. ball and popular tourist resorts. ah, the will say completely knocking down a major clock time. huge piece, a kit that is as well as overturning vehicle ruzen trees, ship traffic on the bus for straits, been suspended while numerous plains been able to land forecast,
10:13 am
walnut dangerous weather will continue until late. choose a hot on the heels of those high winds and big storm across britain the last few days as well. a lake new document suggest berlin tried to pressure washington not to impose sanctions of an old stream to germany's foreign ministries. also warned the u. s. that sanctions against the new gas pipeline from russia damage, trans, atlantic unity. let's get across with he goes down of our correspondence or what, what we know on this, and what more reaction has come in from berlin than ego? well, kevin, in fact, germany has outright confirmed that their officials have reached out to us senators in a bit to discourage them from imposing new sanctions on the nord stream to gas pipeline that runs from russia and into germany. the confirmation came, are in response to a question to a, a roughly journalist artes video agency have
10:14 am
a listen. it is american national congress is all there is a document suggesting that the german government, army, members of the u. s. congress not to impose sanctions on the node stream to pipeline because this new would undermine us credibility and damage trans, atlantic alliance. unity thing would you confirm the german federal government efforts to come to the sanctions? i can see that these are mental chiefs of both the foreign and economics and technology ministries. he visited washington d. c. recently and conducted fruitful negotiations with representatives of the u. s . government and congress. we are continuing its hence coordination of efforts with our sub ministration. if i'm on the implementation of a joint statement on nordstrom to regularly exchange of views on the subject on many levels, opposition in regard to sanctions is well known. where categorically, again, with any sanctions against violence. so they should not surprise anyone, soon becomes what can you tell us about the success possible outcomes of germany's
10:15 am
efforts on blocking the sanctions in the us senate? i think they were fruitful negotiation and that is all i can say at this moment. may i have a moment while germany could become one of the main benefactors from nordstrom to gas pipeline, becoming operational, in fact, it could help the whole of the e u, you know, deal with the energy crisis. but according to the german ambassador in ukraine, node stream to gas pipeline is still at least 6 months away from that. now the whole construction has been hampered by some fierce opposition coming from the us. that has been slapping sanctions on various companies involved in the construction of the pipeline and coming from ukraine as well. see a huge chunk over rushes, gas gets into europe through caves, pipelines. so now with a new, a modern pipeline in place, key of fears that had services will become obsolete. that's despite repeated
10:16 am
assurances coming from both germany and the russian president vladimir putin. that note stream to will not be turned into an economic weapon. it goes to an off site, the up to the key was posted. it will comes out on it. yeah, no tracking this one, the in states. next, the wave of smashing. grab robberies shipped us during thanksgiving and the weekends. black friday sales with many pointing at the police seem to be overwhelmed with the level of crime that erupt it with the christmas holidays. just around the corner, people are asking if authorities can actually keep the city safe with their hands. apparently so tied up at the moment with new policies says can taylors on it remember the days of good cop bad cop? while back on in case you missed the memo. now every cop is a body. well, we need to completely dismantled the minneapolis police department. i did
10:17 am
often towards floyds, my people came for policing budgets were slashed, force was a no go stop and such without accountability was in. so where are we now? while the politicians who pull the money plug, leaving police departments high and dry, might feel safe from that gated communities. but for the rest of america? well, from coast to coast, from small town to big cities, crime is on the rise. one year and the biggest annual spike of homicides in 60 years later states now trying to false track return to the good old days of law. in order to reverse the tide of rising crime, we need to stop demon demonizing and sabotaging the dedicated men. women who risked their lives every single day to keep the rest of us safe enough is enough.
10:18 am
we cannot de fond the police. we need to re fod the police. instead of less funding, we need more investment in public safety and a knife in the back of the democrat law makers everywhere. almost 90 percent of marilyn's black voters back him because if they have been most affected by fewer patrol cars in the neighbourhood, and this isn't a one off this year has seen a wave of pro police candidates be elected all across the country from liberal seattle to minneapolis the very place, george floyd died at the hands of a police officer. the list really does go on. it turns out that lol assess is not as exciting in real life as it is in the weston's. and for the democrats already terrified of the mid term bloodbath. this could be a debt now, already blue republicans, the proud gun toting law and order party a polling 8 percent higher than democrats nationally. it's almost like voters have
10:19 am
realized that it's one thing to shout a slogan to make a gesture. it's another thing to come up with a real game plan. it does not present any sort of plan for what will come after. there is no specificity as to what services would provide what law enforcement would look like. what residents can expect. police might be back in demand, but it looks like too little too late. the usaa seeing record numbers of offices leaving the force and recruitment numbers away down despite all types of incentives to boost them. when you start treating those who hunt for criminals as the criminals themselves, then also willing to go out and take a bullet few, a lot of the competent people who would make good police offices, a refraining because they feel that they can go to prison for doing their job, 3, a police officer, you put your life in jeopardy. now some feel they're not protected. the criminals
10:20 am
have more rights than police officers today. be careful what you wish for what started as a cat t slogan and a bid to be with the photos turned into a radical agenda. that's been kind to criminals and cruel to the lawful. here with 3rd amended aside to it, people are now having to be more careful other refer to this spike in crime with socially well as forcing a change in the usual terms that are your progressive guide to being less offensive according to people who know better living organized, repeat after me, organized smashing graham in the next episode, undocumented sex affair be against mouth mandates and critical race. there is apparently enough to texas at least to get your dogs having
10:21 am
a private details revealed online parents. they claim that's exactly what happened to a member of a racial equity committee in a local school district. they claim the ridicule for their views on c, r t and the legal case, challenging mosque mandates, told daniel was on the list and explain what happened. we filed a lawsuit against our local i sd, that was to block and illegal mask mandate. and as a result of that, we got a bunch of kickback. this one lady who docks us. she's on what you call a racial equity and diversity advisory committee posted our personal information and our addresses and and contact information our businesses and so forth and told the internet to, to attack us. there was another instant also another guy threatened a bunch of us at a school board meeting climbing. he's going to bring a 1000 soldiers and so force locked and loaded. we. we've reported it to the
10:22 am
school district and we report it to the, the city and to the mayor targeting parents the disagree with policies becoming more and more common in the us. those another instance we reported on recently in arizona, a school board president there was accused, a collecting dust says on parents included the social security numbers and financial records. although he denied that involvement, he was sucked from his post critical race theory as well as mosque mandates. have been causing so much tension between school boards and parents. it's even come to the attention of president biden himself, one association, citing threats from parents, and comparing the disagreement to domestic terrorism with the u. s. attorney general and the f b. i now also involved to tell daniel telling us why parents are standing up to academic officials. after the mask on lawsuit, we were joined by many people and we just keep finding more and more of problems.
10:23 am
you know, our, our school district is a. m a is about an a d level by state average. so that means we have 3rd graders that can't reach out to, to grade level. and yet they spend millions of dollars on putting on social justice and equity and diversity training into everything is political. they use equity and diversity to actually re institutionalized racism. you know, it, they call themselves anti racist. but they're, they're really races. we're fighting back. we're trying to get rid of it at the state level in our school level. um, and so it's a big problem in the state of texas and all over the country. actually, i've been networking with, with other parents and actually teachers that are frightened and terrified that this is, this is taking over our education system in the united states. a ukrainian
10:24 am
jernace is in a spot, a hot water off re uploaded a video of him foreign and artillery gun at what he claimed were russian occupies. oh, i must admit, i may have been involved in the killing of some people and on bass, but exclusively in the death of russian occupiers. while you are able to solve says, he posted the video on a national day of remembrance of the holiday. more fam marriage devastated the soviet union back of the 19 thirty's, but the videos being cited as proof of ukraine violating a ceasefire deal. i'm going designed to wend a years long civil war near the russian border. critics at the stunt took the twitter to vent their outrage. under any such journalists lived in ukraine, looks like cuba chased away, or those who dare to tell the truth about ukraine. shelling and killing peaceful population in dumbass. not blatantly violating minsk agreements and trying to shift the blame on russia. this video confirms not only the fact of the use of prohibited
10:25 am
heavy weapons by the armed forces of ukraine, but also the fact that anyone who wishes can shoot the territory of the dumbass republics in addition to the ukrainian military. if this is what journal is doing, ukraine imagined what their government and arm is doing? in response to the bi class, she put herself issued her an update to his post, then in which he partly backtracked on his original words with a claim that the video had been shot a long time ago was not in violation of. and he sees far agreement and it is the clarity on it's was pogue. so journalist brian mcdonald who heads the russia and former soviet union desk at r t dot com for what he's basically doing it. he's created a priest. and now, whereas if you are a militia man, a rebel or whatever, you want to call them, and in the don't boss. looking at that on the internet, you're thinking how many other journalists are doing that. and you're starting to think, well they're making themselves competent. there, and that's the danger of it and you know, you reboot yourself is
10:26 am
a very radical guy. he's known for it. i mean he's, he certainly blurs the line between activism and journalism. but then again, this is a feature of ukrainian media for the last 6 or 7 years. i mean, you need to look at their twitter accounts. there's so many ukrainian journalists, you've got political statements on their twitter accounts, you know, ranging from crimea, the crane to, to support of individual political figures in ukraine. something that wouldn't really happen in russia certainly wouldn't happen in western europe. for example. you could imagine that in any normal country, unfortunately, modern ukraine is not very normal. in any normal country, you will be prosecuted. i mean, he's a civilian, he's not a military officer who is fired and military weapons in a war zone. i mean, in any normal country that would get your jail time. imagine if we want you to cross the latest to this, you cove it very, that's what's known so far as change by the hour. but i think a to 10 days for a real handle on it, you can find more to see the comb reporting from all sco. my name is kevin for me
10:27 am
10:28 am
you a tool that was bad for your eyes and your post yet that it would stop you from having real friends and finding a girlfriend. but what they fail to mention is that you could make thousands of dollars every weekend by simply playing video getting a stacy been a couple of them for the so we formed the fortune to buy food. it's a little under a georgia resume because with the middle can much for to do up is no phone of course to make video games a high paying job. you have to be gifted and quick with it. hang on to open up with like a typical solution business solution. your bottom in this sounds of webpage bentley up amongst the booth, but you've missed out it yet gala boy, when you mouse storm you my video it out or you me. i was at kneels few guy on the order, but i would that be cool. it will still be stuck with these it's odd to do. i also use
10:29 am
from the craft all the way up to the top management. they're under a lot of pressure and stress and computer programs that follow you around all day. i mean, we know what everyone is doing. they will get an email or your boss to call you walk. and they would say your pictures back or 5 or 4 else, one of the managers of post office operations was calling the post office is tell them i told you guys, no overtime this week, fix it. so you know, they're, they're being told to lie, cheat, and still it's tough not to break some kind of rule of war or law or something in a year when you're managing the post office because they just don't give you what you need to operate. and i had gotten curious about why some of my pe, my over time wasn't paid to me. i would go in in the morning,
10:30 am
i was swipe my badge. i would go case my route and i would work that way until i went home and i swipe off what they were doing. they were going in and actually deleted my badge. swipe down with the carriers time, change it to the system or to some core core. so you know something's going on. are you doing something away that you shouldn't be doing? i'm gonna check into it. i'm going to read it. i'm going to look to the contract. i'm going to like the employer manual. i'm going to see a bar. i'm not stop and what this right here because this is, this is, this is not right. they said that steve didn't clock on on
