public to give them a service that they desire. it's not about quality. train workers is the model with the origin of the new cove. it straight is some. the question is, dutch health officials say on the chrome was detected in the netherlands before it was reported in south africa. we speak to a w, h, o representative in russia about how dangerous this new strain could be. a logical knowledge which is telling us and that this is a more deadly virus. there is no place for planning, but there is a place for preparedness, propulsion, and action. meantime, nursing unions from 28 countries are demanding a suspension of coven vaccine, peyton's so poor countries. can legally produce them, they say the jobs are being unfairly hoarded by wealthy nations. also ahead we will be forced to create similar sites as a reaction to those who threaten us in this way. and we can do it now,

because we have successfully tested a hypersonic missile. president putin says rush has developed a powerful new hypersonic missile in response to a pentagon statement, ramping up tensions with moscow. and growing fears, i've a twit, as future as a beacon of free speech that the online giant gets a new boss known for coming out against freedom of expression and the 1st amendment . ah, well, it's good to have you with a slide from moscow. this is our c internationals world news at 11 with me calling bright 1st for you, then the origin sound, the timing of this latest cove. it very entering question of the dutch health officials say that on the chrome was detected in the netherlands before it was reported in south africa. it's unclear so far. if the infected people had visited africa and exactly how the new variant appeared in the netherlands. but it could also mean that there were many more cases around the world earlier. kevin owen got

the latest from all correspondence, peter oliver in europe, and pulled a slayer in south africa. nothing this announcement and the new information that's coming forward is leaving well. come to you here in south africa, the former saw people falling in the south african variance and they would take no, it's not in our scientists and i, experts of folk songs that they were able to get up to, to be honest enough to pull to the world hopefully the non grayson and very much the feeling here in south africa for the last few days following the travel, then the next half because i've actually left side the speakers all concerning what we have is that infection care in south africa have morning. suppose in recent days, the last official figures who have also sundays when they were 2800 new cases and the campaigns with 500. how are lately, basically at the hospital, i'm thinking that they expect a lot of pressure in the next 2 to 3 weeks. and they also expect moving team panels

and new cases by the end. at the same time, you still have thousands of south african, the international travel ban of 70. although the latest information you have is that british a way should be operating again from tomorrow. but now it says that immigrants has said that the situation in south africa is its wave. and the ration on the ground, despite the discovery we have in addition to the discovery of this new strain, still remain very worrying. how has europe responded to this new strain? especially close to this news that actually could've been around a few days maybe up to 11 days earlier. if this news is coming in this from the netherlands is to be believed anglo americans and the well, most likely success. so all of sholtes as chancellor will be discussing with the health ministers from germany, 16 states what they're going to do for

a national tactic to tackle the current outbreak of cove at 19. well, the something about when schools can be closed, also something about curfews as well, be paying close attention to it. however, some of the regional leaders in germany, a saying action needs to be taken immediately to protect our healthcare system. we unfortunately have to shut down the whole country on uneven, strict basis. a federal emergency break must be decided this week. for one country that's already in the middle of a lockdown is austria. that's going to run through until at least the end of this week. it could well be extended until the 13th of december. and we've been finding out a little bit more from the austrian government about their proposal that they're going to him, make it mandatory for people to have vaccines from the 1st of february. and anybody who doesn't go for a vaccine could be eligible for a fine of just over 3000 euro, or spend 4 weeks in jail. we are seeing cases, almost all over the country,

all over the continent. we're looking at at present in spain, portugal check republic, italy, belgium, and the netherlands. as i mentioned, frances, looking into 2, at least 2 suspected cases there. and what we're hearing from ursula fondling the a you commission president, is that more action needs to be taken to try and tackle this new variant here. now, in a race against time, the scientists and manufacture need 2 to 3 weeks to have a full picture about the quality of the mutations of this army chron variant. while staying in europe moving outside of the european union, the night in the united kingdom, england has re introduced the wearing of face masks on public transport and in shops as, as a legal requirement. it had been voluntary since the summer and ministers for health there is saying it's because of this new variant and uncertainty over how it

may affect people. we're trying to get that balance in proportion and, and it is difficult because it's unknown. so we need to buy some time so our scientists can work with the world's leading scientists to just basically sort of figure out what they're in. we know it's very transmissible by looking at that the year. but we don't know whether it work with the vaccine vaccine wack or the other treatments, etc. so the scientists do need some time for that. well, that's how it looks across europe right now would be keeping a keen eye to see on what news develops. either with from the netherlands, with regards to the announcement that at this omicron very, it may have been present here for much longer. also watching what's going to come out from here in berlin, where anglo merkel, the german chancellor meeting with regional leaders as they try to establish a new national protocol for it when it comes to trying to tackle this covert outbreak or just expand, or peter saying that nations are now applying their own new measures to tackle the spread of the virus australia and some european countries have suspended flights to him from south africa and also neighboring states. others have banned everybody

except their own nationals arriving from southern africa. however, israel and japan have gone a step further. they've imposed a complete ban. the japanese prime minister says it's crucial to avoid a worst case scenario while studies continue into the new strain. and it seems he's got the people's backing at home. oh, come on. i am from a rural area and i am very worried doing. my wife is also very worried wondering what tokyo residence. so thinking about the new variant does for the, you know, so i feel really if now the prime minister has shita announced very strict border measures. it have to fill with that will do it. i think it was good that she, that of the border measures very swiftly and on top of that i want team to prepare well for things like hospital beds and similar issues. i'm scared because oil, people like cars are a bit too relaxed now. to criminals is for sure, it's better not to allow people who might be infected to enter japan, because the situation in japan is pretty stable. now, it's initial feeling. well,

right now, scientists rushing to adapt to existing vaccines to fight the new strain which is yet to be fully studied. and the precious, almost the well health organization says omicron potentially poses a very high risk globally. when a w h o representative in russia says progress is being made in understanding the strain, but there's more work to be done. when a mutation shows a number of, i would say changes a number of mutations that he can relate to something either to previous knowledge . for example, be so by this my rent has mutations, many more mutations on the spike protein. it is actually this the needle that the virus is using to getting to the salad to make us infected, to actually pool infections who spread further. and this is why, because it has many more than other viruses, are the variance. it has immediately come into concert. so i think acknowledge,

but we don't have a logical noise, it's telling us at the moment that this is a more deadly virus. what do we know from south africa? he said maybe young people and this is where the cluster was detected. and we do know that callie's been young. people is lighter. we do not have reports, and he's no man that it is causing more severe disease or that it is more lee. so this is not something that we should speculate off. we really need a bit more time, and this is why he said that there is no place for planning, but there is a place for preparedness, proportion, and action allows the new cabbage train courses along globally. vaccine supplies are in the spotlight. nursing unions from 28 countries want to get rid of patents for corona virus jobs so that they can be legally made by any qualified manufacturer. the groups looking for un, backing to saying the poorer countries lack the shots because they're being hold it by the wealthy countries where they're being produced. that says that vaccine and balance could lead to even more depth. the direct consequences of the failure to

distribute vaccines and treatments equitably to the vast majority of people of low and moderate income countries could likely fir the transmission of coven 19 further mass illness and large numbers of fatalities. in those countries, there should be reason enough to address the crisis of global vaccine apartheid. well, with all the crowns spreading the united kingdom as back in the spotlight for its handling of the pandemic. this time is nurses unions in 28 different countries are accusing. richard nations of essentially costing lives worldwide and even of creating a vaccine apartheid system. now essentially what they're doing is taking their complaint directly to the united nations. basically, this is all about many rich countries, including the u. k and the e u. they're refusing to barge on rules, particularly regarding intellectual property rights for rich and nations. have secured 7000000000 doses of the vaccine in comparison to the low income nations,

only having around 300000000 doses. now these nurses unions are really accusing rich nations of violating patients rights. instead of supporting this waiver, certain governments are protecting the profits of big pharmaceutical companies at the expense of public health. these countries have violated our rights and the rights of our patients and cause the loss of countless lives of nurses, another caregivers, and those we have cared for. well, nurses unions in 20 different countries have now filed an appeal with the united nation, saying that the global gap between rich and poor is only just exacerbated with the pandemic. and is now becoming blindly obvious. not only that, what they all he was at the transmission of cove it in developing nations, increases the risks of new variance emerging. now, a waiver on all of these provisions for vaccines would then allow them to be made more widely and then distributed more widely as well. it will improve the global

distribution of the vaccines. now, even the world health organization has weight in there to this debate, saying that there needs to be a cap on how much of a country is vaccinated. no more vaccines should go to countries that have already box united, more than 40 percent of their population until kovacs has the vaccines. it needs to help other countries get that to well, the pandemic slogan has long been. no one is safe till everybody is safe. but really and truly it doesn't seem to be the case for many people arguing against the pharmaceutical companies that arguably operating profit before public health. and while there has been a global kovacs initiative, have these global initiatives really be in that successful, almost 2 years on now? from the beginning of the pandemic, and arguably, we're back in the eye of the storm. the feeling really is now that these rich

countries are arguably having quite a selfish mindset and if they continue to do so well, we just go round and round in circles and go back to square one with these new variance emerging that he may putin's announce 3rd rushes developed a powerful do hypersonic weapon to him responds to a pentagon statements escalating tensions with the criminal. his r t correspondent ramon culture of while answering questions from the participants of the russia calling economic of forum. vladimir putin. a question. nato's potential weapons placement in eastern europe and that he warned of the consequences that may follow. a russian president followed up by saying that the country will soon have mock 9 hypersonic weapons. and he did so in response to a, one of the questions about the so called red lines in ukraine and natal steps that led to the current tensions between moscow and the western military alliance. i if

miss al site to pay on the territory of ukraine than the flight time of missiles to moscow will be 7 to 10 minutes. and the case of hypersonic weapons 5 minutes. imagine that. and what else can we do? we will be forced to create similar sites as a reaction to those who threaten us in this way. and we can do it now because we have successfully tested a hypersonic missile. and at the beginning of the year, we already have new c based missiles and service, which can travel speeds to mach 9. the flight time for these missiles will also be 5 minutes. why are we doing all this? creating such threats for us is the red line, but i hope it doesn't come to that. i have that common sense and the joint responsibility for all countries and for the well community will prevail, go water. the so called a russian aggression seems to be dominating the hearts and minds of western politicians and subsequently the people as well. now, media headlines claimed that ukraine is bracing for an imminent had sac. well,

the u. s. cents and nato officials are pushing the agenda even further saying that russia will face consequences once it's at once. it affects ukraine. now, this is just a, one of their statements less heavily on us. and i have stated several times now there will be a highs, a high price to pay for russia if they once again use force. again, independent sovereign nation ukraine. and also the over the years also increased our military presence in this region. just to make sure that all our laws are totally the founded unprotected, the instant against, and the russian aggressive actions. the global posture of you, strengthened the combat, credible deterrent against russian aggression in europe, and enables nato forces to operate more effectively. we continue to watch with great concern movements by russian military units near the ukraine border. i obviously can't speak to their but their intentions,

but we continue to believe that any escal latoria aggressive actions would be a great concern not only to the united states and but hello to our allies in partners there on the european continent. meanwhile, russian defense ministry continues to record nato forces, movements and near its borders. now those includes at entries of michelle equipped worships flights of americans, strategic warplanes that have become more and more frequent. recently, also large scale exercises including unscheduled ones, are being conducted. moscow also says that the united states rehearsed nuclear strikes against russia in november. now, the pentagon responded to that by saying that very drills were announced publicly at the time, and that they all are here to international protocols. meanwhile, here at the economic forum earlier and she's there, russian president questions,

why natal felt the need to expand in eastern europe with it's the anthem missile assist them saying that their relationship was almost idyllic. back in the mid ninety's, just a day into his new job as twitter, as ceo and paragraph, i grow while it already ruffling feathers with fears of more content compounds of the social network because of its past remarks about not prioritizing freedom of speech. it goes down of talk me through the concerns being flagged up. the 1st thing to know about twitter is new c o. he may be new as well, the chief executive officer, but his not a new face in the company, per se. this or 37 year old man of well indian descent, he joined twitter all the way back in 2011 as chief technology officer. so he has already a long, long history of being an executive within the company has been involved with all the pretty much all the main strategic initiatives with twitter. so it hardly comes as a surprise that this person is well,

he is sharing the general line behind that the twitter has been taking over the past few years that the, well, twitter is bigger than, you know, freedom of speech that twitter has its own understanding of this term and that it's their backyard and they are, you know, they're in their right to dictate the rules. his are a statement of from the last year that came back to haunt him. now have a listen. oh is not too big bon mussman when, but i would roll it sir, we'll have to leave all the conversation, focus less on thinking about each, but thinking about how the dance of change. so right now we are still to see his, the 1st moves that he makes because everybody is anticipating what to expect from him. and some pundits have been arguing or that well he won't bring the will needed change to twitter needed, especially by the investors. because there are, they were growing increasingly unhappy with jack doors. he and his handling of all

the scandals, you know, around twitter. there's been a lot of controversy. a lot of people, of course defending twitter. a lot of people well being on the other side of the fence on the other side of the barricades. but one thing a so far, oh, well, one thing that we are seeing so far that there are no indications that twitter will abandon their policy of, you know, giving some people the spotlight and taking the spotlight from others and doing it at their own will even though the company hasn't always been like this, i mean compare the statement of frog or wall that twitter is not about the 1st amendment, and that it will not be hampered or hindered by it. with something that former twitter seo, for example, on decker castillo, said to one of our core values is respect and defend the user's voice. and we're the free speech wing of the free speech party. we believe our purpose is to serve the public conversation and that does take a stand, sir. i'm freedom of expression and defending freedom of expression as

a fundamental human right? so prague, a wall also has experience serve with microsoft, with 80 and t. so he is no stranger to the broader, you know, silicon valley and you know, the high tech scene. so we'll have to see what he will bring to the table. and whether or not the concern of investors is something he will be able to deal with. french right wing t, v pundit eric seymour has announced his candidacy for next year's presidential election. but despite his popularity, public scandals have hurt his ratings. his shot a davinsky repulse from paris. the would be bad for you. french politics has announced, tease officially running to become the next president of frogs. this is eric simile, who's a highly divisive figure here in the country, but as also in the last few months, showing that who could gain a substantial following and really shake up this race. now he's setting out why,

who should lead france a normal time to reform friends? it's time to save it. that's why i've decided to run for president. saw children and grandchildren will not face barbarity. so our daughters will not be forced to wear a head job. and our sons will not be forced into submission, so we can pass to them the same fronts that we knew and that we inherited from ancestors feels what, but what he does, a war has twice been convicted over inciting racial hatred. and he is currently awaiting a verdict of a 3rd allegation. he has been clear that who believes wiped french people will be replaced by norm won't known you repeat in immigrants. zamora has also spoken out against islam, saying that it threatens frances values and has said immigrants new to assimilate to the values of the french republic, suggesting that names like mohammed would be banned under his leadership. now,

the pun, dates, and right to has spent the last few months unofficially campaigning, as she has been promoting his latest book. his pre candidate cho, campaign, has been hampered by some events being canceled abroad as he tried to reach out to french ex pats. his events which draw must support, particularly here in france, also draw protests about me or never to have given attention to. i don't even want to pronounce his name. who has said such outrageous things is just an acceptable even if okay, we're in a country of freedom where everyone has the right to express their opinion. but to give so much visibility to one person like that is shameful. premier pasco has, we hope mr. zimmer will clean things up a bit. but problem is there. it's been 30 years 40 years. that state has been demobilized from many issues. and we need to see clearly when we need to re launch

the country. i think the others won't have the courage to do it already or something. well, today we see that despite our differences, we all have the same problem in our daily lives. that is why we're all gather today to say no to this divisiveness. the country, they call them a racist, but it's not true. he's no more racist than i am. i am of lebanese origin, and i'm here and i've integrated, well. now many have also describes him more as being intellectual, donald trump, and he has had a popular right in the poll so far. at one point, even before declaring his candidacy poles showed that he could make a 2nd cut to the round of voting. that will determine his president and not to shaken up many on the political scene, which is very traditional here. as seen. it still isn't quite certain as to who will be on the ballot paper next year. current president macaroni still hasn't officially thrown his hat in the ring, while the republicans who all that traditional party of the right are still to

choose their candidates. the more joins names like marine, the pen, socialist, paris, ne, any dell go and the left wing firebrand john nick mel as shown as he eyes the top job in france. ever got an update for you on the school shooting in the us state of michigan that we reported for you last hour of which you can see the details on the bottom of your screen. it's now known that 3 students were killed at the oxford high school just north of detroit, in the shooting that happened just over 2 hours ago. now. i'll t corresponded caleb, norfolk joyce, me now. hello kylie. what are the authorities? they're saying at this point, we understand that at oxford high school, located in oxford county, michigan, there was a shooting edge. the shooter is now been apprehended, 3 people are dead, they are students. 6 other people have been injured. one of those people was

a teacher. now we understand that a school has been placed on locked down, that law enforcement is on the scene. federal as well as local. in addition to that, we understand that there was a medical helicopter that flew in to rush those who had been injured to medical care. so a medical helicopter did land at the school. the school is on locked down. 3 people dead, 6 people injured including a teacher, 3 students killed. and at this point the shooter has been arrested and identified and the firearm is in the hands of law enforcement as well. so it appears the sheriff's department was on the scene and has apprehended the shooter. we're waiting for more information. the identity of the shooter has not yet been revealed . now, no information about a possible motive. 3 dead, 6 wounded. anything known is that the loan suspect to a 15 year old students at the school, according to the authorities now in custody. okay. kind of thanks for keeping us in

touch with that. we'll be right back with you when we got more detail. okay, that's your news for now. your 1st kaiser report of the week is next. tell them be back here in just a half an hour with an ex dothan global update from moscow. thanks for watching. ah, join me every thursday on the alex simon 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. ah, with

there is no pinnacle of evolution. everything's flat. a bacterium is the product of 4000000000 years of evolution. it is in a specific environment so away. so in that sense, when we on the last few survivors at the end of a long, long process you so as in silver springs at yellowstone, we will not do very well. and we'll do much better in that sense. ah,

i am at kaiser this is because the report, wow, what a moment for me. and stacy there we were on the runway in san salvador. ready to exit from the country when? yes, we were in the plane on the runway and i checked my twitter one last time. and lo and behold, i saw a special thanks to max kaiser for inspiring volcano, bonds that was her name. but kelly, the president of our salvador, we had just been to the party the night before where they were announced. so i yeah, that was pretty special. right. so on this show we've talked about pay these volcano bonds. they could just have basically future big coin mining in back bonds floated by the country with like

a nice coupon. and they could pay off the i m f loan. you know, this was in response to the i m f. and now hillary clinton, you know, wagging their ugly, which like finger. oh you bam. and then when we were up the event at the end of big coin week and i saw the door night, but kelly, the president, had his presentation. and then on to this dave sampson now for bloodstream, turns out they were actually cooking something up all this time. and they presented volcano bonds and they went with the samson plan, essentially, which as it's a half big coin and then a half backed by an infrastructure, pays a 16 percent dividend. and after a 5 year lock up period, investors start to get those bitcoin back to them. it's a 10 year bond. i think this is going to be the best performing bond anywhere in the world over the next 10 years by a long, long shot. it really is going to be

a chance for all salvador to get rid entirely of all their debt, all their that they're going to get rid of using these bonds. right. and of course the kelly has said over and over that his inspiration is singapore. they want to be like sang a pork as singapore, of course, had been a very poor country. tropical, very hot, steamy, swampy. and they turned it into a financial power house. and that is what you also saw. i saw the clip just the other day of night, mckelly meeting with a sing, a poor investor who is a big investor. and now salvador and his 1st words were like, this is beyond meeting just the president. i am meeting in a you are making the future, you're making the feature you're making history, although it's pretty amazing. but, you know, we lefts, this relentless optimism that you saw everywhere in el salvador returned to the united states. first we stopped in miami where we interviewed alex spets,

he for the 2nd half on the beach. it was very windy.
