9:03 am
what it means is that they're going to be bringing in new measures again, going to be bringing back in measures. i beg your pardon, things like mass squaring in public. you're also going to need to be able to show either a negative test or a vaccine certificate if you to go into bars, jims, restaurants, hotels, or cinemas. now all of these measures are being brought him as european chiefs are having serious discussions about mandatory vaccination is being rolled out across the u. s. on the line has been talking about just that it is understandable and appropriate to lead this discussion. know how we can encourage and potentially think about mandatory vaccination within the european union. this needs discussion . while the commission president there is talking about mandatory vaccination in the u. one country that is already said it will be lamenting mandatory jobs is
9:04 am
austria that set to come in. in february, the country is currently in a, a full national lockdown. it's supposed to be in not least until the end of this week. it can be extended through until the 13th of december. however, that move to implement. mandatory vaccination has not gone down well with some people in cities of gots and lynn's. we've seen demonstrate is out on wednesday, shutting down public transport where they can also demonstrates is on the streets of vienna as well. however, officials in austria say they didn't want to have to bring in mandatory vaccination, but their hand is being forced in this issue. we haven't once dismissed, we didn't want to vaccine mandate. let me make that explicit sex. got that 20 months on for missed out of the pandemic. we are in a situation that is dramatic. if you look at intensive care unit said hospitals. oh, finish off in germany, where the country recorded the highest coven death rate. since february of this
9:05 am
year, 446 people in the last 24 hours dying with coven. 19 in germany. we are going to be looking ahead to angular merkel. and the german government meeting with state leaders in not country on thursday. we're expecting to hear of mo, developments, perhaps more restrictions put in place in germany as well. or i ought to correspond peter oliver and sweden the thank you. now he is so far in russia, there are no reports of omicron infections for the developers of the country. sputnik vega, confident it'll provide sufficient protection against the new strain. and in the unlikely case, it doesn't a modified version of the vaccine, the se, could go to production. and just 45 days. the chief or ologist of moscow's glare research sense, which developed a course this put mcveigh job telling us that the new cobit strain actually appears to have been low. but the good news once may be weakened bites mutations stood than you will cover that he hadn't witnessed. the army cron variant has $32.00 mutations
9:06 am
and spike protein including mutations that already existed as well as new mutations . and this origin is unclear, but 32 mutations is too many. while some people are terrified, i find that aspect rather favorable method mutated 32 times. that means it has an unstable genome at that i suspected system controlling the accuracy of his genome has become damaged. if so, it will be weak. it can spread well because of natural selection. but as pathogenesis might have been greatly reduced, in the cases we're seeing now, everyone has a mild form. no one has died so far. on the other hand, there's no doubt on how it can effect elderly people, will have to wait another month or so to be sure was at the show. how did it emerge? love, you know, viruses don't ask any one for permission. they live, they mutate a natural selection, works in favor of what can reproduce well, but the degree of pathogenic city isn't guided by natural selection, as it's not very important. and this varying has undergone. so many mutations, a virus doesn't need so many mutations to reproduce is
9:07 am
a sign of genetic instability. tens of thousands of march to the sidney's capital called tomb against the military government off last month. qu, security forces tried to break up the crowds, fatigue us from one of those protests. more gazda, of acetic correspondent, as tennis is being flagged by us, should a nice police to disperse these protest. 30, a few 100 people here. these tear gas canisters that the outdated, so there are beyond due date. so the effect that they have isn't quite as powerful as if they had been pressure to people can comfortably pick them up, throw them away and play this game with police officers. and police evidently weren't having any of that. and these are, it is getting a bit uncomfortable here. eyes are beginning to sting as well as people's throats. but police are again forcing people back, asking them to disperse people here,
9:08 am
nevertheless. aw, are still angry. i still angry. they still believe the revolution has been stolen from them. when i heard is another tear gas canisters, they're being fired by police to this bus that this bus protest this year. dana today was supposed to be a $1000000.00 men, much a protest against the military takeover, as they say, protest this year of the government, this all young voices. but this again is, is government. they want us even young government want to see it, but of up and kill people. the people in, in agreement piece is justice. many people here feel betrayed by the
9:09 am
actions of the prime minister, the civilian government, who agreed to the military demands the militaries, demands that they hand over a part of their power to the military. we are out against hum duke and brew hon their political agreement. and the governments talk, we are not pleased with this work and the political games we are industries because no one rules us and no one can ruin. we rule ourselves. we have to go. it's a, it's getting a, it's becoming unbearable. sin and suspended is leading on co chris cuomo, after his role in advising his brother, the former new york governor during a sexual harassment scandal. andrew cuomo had previously been accused of hiding the true numbers of care home cove deaths in the state. his art he contributed lauren chin is most of us are probably aware of by now. chris cuomo is the brother of former governor of new york. andrew cuomo who had to resign in august following
9:10 am
a slew of sexual misconduct allegation. and even though there's nothing inherently wrong with that sibling connection with one brother being in media and the other brother being in politics when it comes to the coma brothers, specifically, chris cuomo is yet again, being accused of using his position ap cnn. as a prime time news anchor to help the political career of his brother and these questions of impropriety on behalf of chris chromos part are not new. they 1st started early last year. when at the height of coven hysteria, chris cuomo chose to interview his brother, who was at the time governor of new york on his shell. so that in scale, this was the actual swab that was being used to fit up that double barrel shotgun that you have mounted on the front of your pretty face. and so when that interview came out, a lot of people i think, were correctly wondering why chris cuomo was joking around with his brother, governor, about giant cute. it's when. at the same time,
9:11 am
his brother was being accused of housing, crone of iris patients with nursing home patients in the same facilities. but despite cnn's attempts to reinforce at least some standards of journalistic integrity, this would not be the last time that chris cuomo would be accused of using his position to help his brother. specifically earlier this year. andrew home was name was in headlines repeatedly because several women who had previously worked with the governor were now accusing him of sexual harassment. it didn't take too long before report started servicing that chris cuomo. the younger cuomo was actively advising his brother and how to handle all of these sexual harassment allegations. when my brother situation became turbulent, being moved into calls with other friends of his advisors, but did include some of his staff. i understand why that was a problem for sienna, and for a while it did seem like that would be the end of all of these different candles at least as far as chris cuomo was concerned in till. that is, this week the new york attorney general's office released
9:12 am
a series of documents showing that chris cuomo, involvement with his brothers office, was a little bit more in depth than he had led people to believe. a series of text messages exchange between chris cuomo and one of governor andrew almost top aides. melissa to rosa shows that chris cuomo actually helped draft statements for his brother in one text message. chris cuomo also texted melissa derosa that he quote, had a lead on the wedding girl, presumably referring to one of governor cuomo, accusers, and in one especially concerning exchange derosa texted chris cuomo, quote, rumor going around from politico one to 2 more people coming out tomorrow. can you check your sources to which chris cuomo responded on it followed by no one has heard that yet falling the release of those text messages from derosa and cuomo, a slew of different left leaning media outlets have been calling for quote resignation. if this story is accurate, it describes a series of shocking ethical breaches, farmable offences of any of a news outlet. not surprised and the least embarrassing to any honorable journalist
9:13 am
. it's hard to imagine any news executive keeping chris cuomo on stuff after today's revelations. then again, as seen and likes to say this is cnn amazing that chris cuomo still has a cushy job at cnn after flagrantly violating journalistic ethics. so let me clear here we have chris cuomo using his knowledge as a media professional to help draft statements for his brother andrew cuomo when he was facing multiple allegations of sexual harassment. and not only that, but it also seems like chris cuomo was using his connections within the media industry to gather information on andrew cuomo as accusers. so the question now is, what is next for chris cuomo? previously, it seems that seeing and has been satisfied with chris merely going on. his primetime t v show to make apologies, but i'm unsure whether that's going to be enough this time. and if chris cuomo is ultimately fired, it will just solidify a principle that we saw in action when his brother, andrew cuomo,
9:14 am
resigned from his position as governor, which is that in 2021, you can apparently kill all of the nursing home residents. you want, as long as you don't get me to the european central bank, his under far off, inflation had his highest in the euro's 20 year. history economist claim the inflation research of an unprecedented growth in energy prices, notably oil and gas, as well as the increased cost of goods and services. a tough and slow recovery from the crone of corresponding because also the major impact was small credit rating agencies. and those saying that the omicron strain could also hamper any economic improvement by bringing uncertainty to global markets. the european central bank though, says things are fine, most forecasts actually assume inflation will fall below 2 percent. so there really are no signs of price rises getting out of control. if it's that inflation would permanently saddle above to percent, we would definitely react. however, at the moment we see no indication of this spite,
9:15 am
those words of some comfort inflation in the block continues to gain momentum reaching 6 to 8 percent. we spoke to a german economist who thinks this is set to continue to for years to come. as against wishing, our home inflation creates social injustice that the winners a few, the losers are the general population. the purchasing power of money decreases rents become more expensive. holidays become more expensive, et cetera, but inflation must be tackled at its roots, for there should be no 0 interest rate policy and no further expansion of money supply rise in inflation is also a problem for industry. companies have to buy raw materials themselves and international markets and have to pay workers and so on. so, in an inflation cycle, these goods become more expensive and the companies have higher production costs. these higher costs have to be passed on to the sales costs. and companies that cannot do this, have less profit and can go bankrupt it technically, you can predict we can to the problem to do so. the central bank must race interest
9:16 am
rates and curve the growth of the money supply. however, this is difficult because many see inflation policy as the policy of the lesser evil. the european central bank is sticking to its low interest rate policy and therefore one has to fear that inflation will continue to rise in the coming years . young moscow says washington still has time to stop an escalating diplomatic row. after us authorities set deadlines to full scores of russian diplomats out the foreign ministry spokesman branding the u. s. move and expulsion and saying they'll react accordingly. thank you. my mother, we've you this american demand precisely as an expulsion of our diplomats. we intend to respond accordingly. by january 31st. all us embassy personnel and moscow who have been on assignment for more than 3 years, must leave russia while kevin, this announcement by the russian foreign ministry that certain number of american embassy workers are going to have to leave the country by the end of january,
9:17 am
comes amid a number of diplomatic spats between the united states and russia, and just a day after it was announced that washington will not be issuing new visas to the family, members of russian envoys to the united states, making it extremely difficult for them to live and work at the embassy there. now, the spats actually have been going on for a while now. just recently, washington limited the term that russian diplomats conserve in the united states to 3 years while for other countries. it's still at 5 years earlier. this actually also means that 55 russian diplomats will have to leave the country by 2022. this is something that the foreign ministry of russia has said our de facto expulsions. while washington has said they are not. earlier in the year, washington also ordered the closure of its consul, it's throughout russia and stopped issuing non diplomatic visas. this basically forces russian citizens to go to us embassies in other countries. and to apply for
9:18 am
visas as quote, homeless nationalities. now, back in june, russian president vladimir putin and us president joe biden met to discuss the possibility of normalizing embassy services at their 2nd bilateral summit. but according to the russian foreign minister survey laughter of these talks were actually fruitless because washington apparently was not ready to compromise. so a month later we can, we see a continuation of these back and forth between moscow and washington. a total call to the yo without a live from moscow. kevin, i'm with this are coming up for his fears. i'm a freedom of expression, a growing of a comments by twitters new chief executive that seem to be prioritized free speech . i'll tell you more from the channel. it questions more after the break? ah, ah, is your media a reflection of reality?
9:19 am
in the world transformed what will make you feel safer? high selection for community. are you going the right way? or are you being led to somewhere? direct? what is true? what is great? in the world corrupted, you need to descend a join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. there is no pinnacle of evolution. everything's flat. a bacterium is the product to 4000000000 years of evolution. it is in a specific environment so away. so in that sense, when we on the left you survivors are then to vote along
9:20 am
a long process you. so as in severe springs at yellowstone, we will not do very well. bacteria will do much better in that sense. again, ukraine is urging nato to boost military cooperation and prepare sanctions against moscow in order to protect the country from supported russia. the aggression as the west of the line says some to latvia as, as its 2nd day, and as flying the flag for britain. then let's trust the u. k. foreign secretary was riding pretty much higher board, a military tank in stony inches miles from the russian border. in a declaration the britain is leading the way against what she called russia's malign activity. it didn't go amiss that the p. r stunt was maybe a bit similar to margaret thatcher's tank riding in years. gone by back then at a nato training campaign. germany let you make your mind up. main ton led him a po to announce that russia had tested
9:21 am
a new powerful hypersonic missile and says its development is in response to nato's expansion of weapon systems close to russia's borders. the nato sexy general is adamant that supposed russian aggression towards ukraine is reason enough to expand the blocks military presence. their largest. the union though, to me in a dialogue with the united states and its allies, we will insist on the developments of specific agreements excluding any further. nato advancements to the east and the deployments of weapon systems that threaten us in the immediate vicinity of the russian federation. have stated several times that there will be a highs, a high price to pay for russia if they once again use force against the independent sovereign ocean ukraine. and also over the years also increased our military presence in this region. just to make sure that all ours are totally offended and protect the instant against and the russian resurrections. for me and
9:22 am
weapons inspector, scott ritter, telling us he thinks nato is playing a really dangerous game. there's nothing about what nato is doing right now. that makes any sense whatsoever. at the end of the day, they're only playing to russian strengths. it's a very dangerous game because as a present burden is said, of russia has read lines in that these red lines aren't just figurative. they're real. and there will be real consequences if these red lines are continue to be violated, as far as anybody can tell, is not prepared to invade ukraine unprovoked. if ukraine attacks or otherwise provokes russia, russia will respond. but the notion of russia just starting a war of aggression against ukraine, out of the blue, is ludicrous and nato knows this. we need to put us in the perspective of where nato in the u. s. is right now under the trump administration, the relationship between the united states data was a very strange one and it didn't get any better under bind. nato right now is
9:23 am
looking for relevance and looking to reassemble a semblance of substance. they can pick the only target they have right now, which is russia, there's nothing nato can do, stand up to it. so why is natal provoking russia? it's simply doesn't make any sense. he stays into his new job as twitter, c o, but park agra was already ruffling feathers for a physical clamp times on content at the social network because of his past comments about not prioritizing freedom of speech and twit has already moved to fact to bind the sharing of photos, videos of people without the can said uses cannot simply flag the image that will be removed. the bad doesn't apply to public figures if the tweets are of public interest. but on those occasions seems the platform itself will decide on what stays and what doesn't. ah, no rule is known to be bound by the 1st amendment moves. reflective of things that we believe lead to
9:24 am
a healthy public conversation. focus less on thinking about free speech. with it's not going to make a distinction between muslims and extremists. then what should i distinguish between white people? embraces a blue dorsey on the far from both parties, defends labeling tweets twitter deliberately prevent accusers from shaving contra biden laptops or twits, happens trumps account, citing risk of further violence. darcy says company was wrong to block new york post hunter biden's joint deck. dorsey has been kind of on the, on the way of being forced out for some time. he has some activist investors who
9:25 am
have been heavily involved in this company who have one of them out for some time. he says he's going to go focus on bitcoin. can he loves decentralization lies by the way. he loves big coin because he wants to control the space, not because he believes in decentralization, hadn't said that. love jack dorothy was probably going to be on his way out anyways, as i said, because of those investors. but i think the bigger issue now is his replacement, his replacement, who was even more anti free speech than he is. in fact, these new rules are, were just instituted just today by twitter that came out and essentially said that you cannot take pictures of anyone who's a 3rd party private individual and post it on the platform without their consent. and that's insane. what does that mean for like project veritax? what does that mean for any whistleblower? what does that mean for anyone who just takes a picture out in public? the supreme court has already ruled that when you're in a public space you have no expectation of privacy. so what twitter is essentially saying is that there are no rules in the world, including laws that surpass its own policies as it's policies are the law of the
9:26 am
land. but in small megan to vote the combo. so if you want to, to, and i never social's, i was good to hear from you with, that's what we're talking about. so far. at 26 minutes. pasta, reporting for you from our to international has been kevin o' it going undergrads. neck stuff for a short break. mm hm. mm . ah. ah. bought you a tool that was bad for your eyes and your post. yeah. 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 over the weekend by simply playing video games with music up
9:27 am
a little bit ago with a little under a georgia resume with net, okay, much what we do accept is no longer boon of course to make video games a high paying job. you have to be gifted and quick with it. i'm going to open up with the little bit mr. lithium and miss thompson with webpage but here from young booth but even started yet glove voice. when you most told me my video it out to me, i was at kneels florida. you guy of the owner. without that vehicle it will still be stuck with these odd to do i also use ah, i ah, with
9:28 am
i'm absent at anthony watching, going underground, coming over the show. was it manslaughter? is all mccord look said to cub global migration. we speak to the former un special repertoire on the human rights of migrants, about migration from poor countries bombed by rich ones. and the de facto massacre in the channel. when refugees like a rocky mariam norie mom and i mean drowned, seeking to be reunited with loved ones in britain. and as the un general assembly discusses palestine at the start of the month of christmas, we ask the un repertoire and human rights in the palestinian territories about renewed you k complicity and valuable israeli war crimes. and the effect of illegal settlements on the birthplace of jesus, bethlehem. all of them all coming up in today's going underground. profess. his critics accuse europe of washing its hands of a migrant crisis, arguably of its own making. dozens of been killed up to trying to cross the channel
9:29 am
to reach the u. k. a so called mainstream media reports record daily numbers entering the u. k. while i'm meeting you k was, many of them are fleeing from joining me now for material and calendars. professor francois capo, the former un special rapids are on the human rights of migrants, so called migrants is, as we say, often going underground deference. we're thanks for coming on before we get to the 27 that killed in the channel. do you expect which countries to be using all mc cron further to stop asylum cases? i mean, there's news for polish. it agents repelling refugees trying across the board of belarus. again, that seems to disappear for mainstream media and they're going to use the pandemic . yes, yes, absolutely. they've been using the pandemic for closing borders. you heard w a show the world health organization calling for not closing borders a few days ago and for closing borders against viruses. it's ludicrous, as
9:30 am
a concept, as australia demonstrated and australia is very well protected by oceans. and yes, it didn't prevent them from, from getting viruses or, you know, reduce the number of people who might be infected. yes, it immediately in the beginning of the pandemic a year and a half ago, it allows for health care assistance to prepare for what was coming. but at this point, if our health care systems are not able to manage, you know, the pandemic. and if we don't vaccinate enough, and if we don't get protection, you know, the gear and everything. well, we're, we're behind, we're behind we, we need to do what is necessary and it's not closing borders. closing borders doesn't stop viruses. well, the british government begs to differ actually just before again, i get to this terrible event in the, in the channel in the bus to a few days. do you as a full, as much we're able to see the, the, an attitude to migration echo.
