[000:00:00;00] ah ah, asylum seekers may have to wait months at the bellows border to get processed. if a new plan from brussels gets to the go ahead, writes groups say the move, throws away the rule book. nursing unions around the globe call for coven vaccine patterns to be lifted. blaming production restrictions for deaths in the developing world. it can be on the constrain will be followed the others if we cannot act. and if all countries in at, at here to a single vaccinations tracking and england's cancer catastrophe, senior medics react to damming government findings at 700000 potential cases may have been missed. since the pandemic began.

ah, oh my destiny. i have direct mer studios in moscow. this is art international. i'm john thomas. certainly glad to have you with us. now, 1st violating asylum writes, campaigners are angry at an e you solution for asylum seekers attempting to get into europe through the bell russian border. there are still thousands stranded in belarus at a temporary shelter set up by the authorities. now brussels wants to extend the asylum processing time by months and keep the migrants in special camps while it happens. but rights groups warned that that would set a dangerous precedent. if the you can allow a minority of member states to throw out the rule book due to the presence of a few 1000 people at its border, it throws out any authority as on human rights in the rule of law,

stopping detaining and criminalize in people trying to find safety in europe, brakes international and european asylum law supporting the detention of migrants at e, you borders puts politics over people's lives. b, e. u is trying to get tough on migration, particularly on its east in bo, does. now in a bid to tackle the issue there, it's gone to 3 countries, controversial emergency asylum measures that will give poland lithuania and latvia. the power to hold people in special asylum processing centers, up to 16 weeks. that is a massive increase on the current timeframe that they can do that full weeks. the moves have shocked your human rights organizations. they've accused that you are playing politics with people's lives and bowing to pressure from eastern european member states. and that said that this is fueling an empty migration agenda. these

new rules will also extend the time that these countries have the even officially register asylum applications that could now increased up to 4 weeks up from a maximum of 10 days. at the moment, no tensions on the eastern borders of the e. you have been high for many months. the you is accused by the roots of frying migrants to minsk and dumping them with the buddha. the e. u says minsky is attempting to destabilize the union by flooding it with migrants in reaction to sanctions. it's placed on bell roost. minsk though, rejects these allegations. there are currently thought to be around $8000.00 migrants being held in centers in eastern europe, in countries. also they crossed over the border from belarus around 7000 more, a said to remain in belarus itself and what the commission describes the situation

as improving. it still defends the idea behind these new measures to protect our borders and to protect people. we are giving flexibility and support to member states to manage this emergency situation without compromising on human rights. this should allow the member states in question to fully uphold the right to asylum and align legislation with you. a quays, quit even you diplomats and nor make is a finding this pretty hard to swallow. they describe the move as lowering you standards and even violating you look, leaving many to question how the you can hold itself up as a protector on human rights on the one hand and implement these measures on the other. charlotte, even ski r t, paris. the proposal suggests that migrants weight in special camps on you territory while their applications are processed. however, the head of ox, fams you office,

believes the conditions in those kinds of facilities would undermine basic laws. the commissioner also has said that these are not the highest number of migrants, right? it's a few 1000 and you should be able to manage that in a fair and humane way. unfortunately, we've seen that every time when a situation at the border rises, whether that's now in, in poland and about 6 days, or whether it's on the southern border with greasy to leeward or spain. there's this panic to reaction and instead of managing it and working as e u. member states together to share the responsibility for hosting asylum seekers and for sharing responsibility for the for them aside and process. we see that is every time this is instead of political crisis, we've seen this in spain and in italy and most currently on the greek islands where these restrictive measures of keeping people at the board are keeping them in substandard facilities and prolonging the time that they can stay there only has

let to flaw to sign up procedures and to asylum seekers, being stuck in detention for months and sometimes even years. and this also means that people were arriving at the border to claim sign him to ask for asylum, who are often already severely traumatized to have often several vulnerabilities. they're saying in substandard conditions. there's no legal aid for them and no health services, so they won't have a fair and you main asylum process. so that's the 1st concern. and then the 2nd concern is, but because of these florida silent procedures in these border border detention center, it will also make it much easier to send people back to harm, which is a clear violation of international refugee law. so those are the 2 main concerns for us. the world health organization says $38.00 nations that have

now detected cases of the new covered variant. alma chron, that's up from 23, just wednesday, that the race is on to get more people vaccinated and others, their 3rd shot. but nursing unions from 28 countries say that the developing world's being left behind and that they are blaming vaccine patents for causing avoidable death. they are demanding that form of firms dropped their monopoly on the potentially life saving jobs. 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 for the transmission of covered 19 further mass illness and large numbers of fatalities in those countries. this should be reason enough to address the crisis of global vaccine apartheid. we're not, not because we represent more than 2 and a half 1000000 health care workers worldwide. we asked that opaqueness for corbett vaccines to be abolished or emergent axis be granted to them at the moment we have not achieved success from the european union,

but we need to continue working. leading countries such as the united states and spain are already in supported this initiative. there is a big balance in purchasing power as well. rich countries have obtained 7000000000 doses of covered vaccines that compares to just 300000000 shots available to people in low income nations. and the healthy unions say the imbalance could lead to even more depth. paloma repealed warnings of grim repercussions if the world does not adopt a unified vaccination strategy. s k. a lab valiant only going to let you know the only constrain will be followed by others if we do not act. and if all countries dinner at here to single vaccination strategy, at the moment, there is a global kovacs initiative aimed at cooperation in the field of vaccines. the initiative is commendable, but although it initially seemed to have a well thought out strategy,

it did not dealt the expected results to day. we're facing an equality despite the efforts of high income countries, only 14 percent of the vaccine colleagues should have received who are provided with feel it is necessary to remove intellectual property rights in order to create vaccines and distribute them primarily in low income and middle income economies social more than 700000 potential cancer cases in england, that should have been urgently referred to doctors have been missed since the pandemic began. this is according to a damning report from a government watchdog. a leading cancer surgeon says the national audit office findings reflect the biggest cancer catastrophe ever. as a report also finds one in for cancer, patients have been on waiting lists for months and up to 60000, missed their 1st treatment due to lock downs and the threat of cove it. the report recognizes that the government's releasing extra funds to fight the problem,

but medics warned that that is nowhere near enough. the national audit office report shows who are in the middle of the biggest cancer catastrophe ever hit the chess. there is a deadly cocktail of delays across the board, a breach in a lottery of cancer inequality and to growing cancer backlog. and it feels like the government and in a chest leaders have their heads in the sand. we have contacted an h. s. england for comment, and we'll let you know if we get a response spokesperson released a statement earlier. admitting that the extra demands of treating chronic virus victims have affected their ability to provide routine and non urgent care. british microbiologist, professor simon clark, says it all points to some difficult months ahead. for hospitals, the number is far too high. it is surprising, but it's not surprising when we should have a box backlog all throughout the cave it saga, which is lasted well for, for well every year. and i was unable to deal with his normal case loads,

and arguably could have been even worse without a lot downs. so those cases are just going to mount top. it's still going to be critical issue. the winter is always a pipeline to dna testing. and i can see us having, if not a disastrous time this week, probably won't be process, it will be tight because even is, and we've got these, these kind of some cancer centers did manage. it was difficult. it was not easy. and of course, there are questions about infrastructure. so regional cancer center, for example, may have better infrastructure and better ability to type a more local center. so it's not always straightforward, but it can be done. the white house is blaming a surgeon lawlessness in the u. s. on the pandemic press secretary jim saki site's gun violence has a root cause of crime. but when questioned about recent mass looting highlighted

cove, it as a major factor when a huge group of criminals organizes themselves and they want to go lu, pay store, and cbs to nordstrom, a home depot until the shelves are clean. you think that because i think a root cause in a lot of communities is the pandemic. yes, now jen sock his remarks come as almost 70 percent of retailers see crime rising in the u. s. with mass looting devastating stores in major states over the last month . prompting some politicians to blame defunded the police policies. let's have a recap of some of those incidents. ah.

for more on this let's cross now 2 are retired police officer dominic is oh, thanks for being with us here on our to international. it's good to get your perspective on this. so does it surprise you to find that the white house has named cove it as a factor in the recent rise in crime? no, it's just embarrassing that they're not admitting what it is. it has nothing to do with co, but it has everything to do with bell reform, and then releasing criminals right back on the street, not prosecuting properly has nothing to do a coven. in your opinion, does this suggest that the u. s. administration is really unable to deal with the situation or is it on equipped to deal with situation? i refuse to believe that the united states government is this stupid. i don't know why they're lying to the american people. other than that, it just seems to be their job, but this has every, the it has and we've seen this for years. criminals get arrested. they don't get properly prosecuted. they're released, i'm bond, you have some high crimes that are like chicago as a great example. our state's attorney will release a gun crimes gun criminals,

right back on the street with no cash bill whatsoever. i'm mostly democratic constituents and voters. i've been a demand for bail reform show. they've said it, they, they've played to the masses of singled, can't keep these people in prison because of poverty issues. and they can't come up the money for bond, which is supposed to be at the turn from crime in the 1st place. so we're going to be releasing people back and down the street. this is so this is nothing new and they know this what they're telling people. it's all due to a pandemic. i just don't understand why the government is continuing to lie to people about this issue. so if we look at back that recent incidence, very similar to a legend, widespread looting during the b l. m protest, is it possible that last years, unrest influenced the criminal situation in the country. and what we're seeing now is just a continuation of that unrest, or a normalizing of such behavior. a 100 percent. if you knew that you could get, we wouldn't be prosecute for crime when you commit a crime. i mean, if you're a moral person and you see that nothing is going to be done, you're going to keep repeating your behavior. it's

a 100 percent accurate. so what do you see as the reasons for the current crime search? if you really get down to it the, nothing's gonna happen to me. i'm gonna go out. i can steal. i know there's a cap when i 1st started law enforcement, 2001. the cap for retail, that was a felony was $300.00. some states have it up to $950.00, that's catastrophic if you're a mom and pop business or the, or if you multiply the times it happens. i don't care if you're a walgreens, you're a wal mart. if you have $34.00 times over the period of a week, a $1000.00 of merchandise is repeatedly stolen from your store with no prosecution done. it's going to massively affect your bottom line, the criminals. why do they care? they don't, they're not getting caught. it's easier to conceal your identity when everyone's wearing a mask. now, this, so this is a perfect breeding petri dish for criminals to act without any consequence whatsoever. so your 1st step would be to hold them accountable. what would be some other main steps that you would take to get the situation under control? aside from that, i think you're really gonna have to have your retailers loans are effective. this

actually step up to the plate and start, i don't know what the laws are, whether they can actually campaign for people are going to cry, prosecute criminal behavior, but they have to come to the table and say we've had enough. they have to work with the state tourneys because this is specifically a state and defense attorney issue. this is not law enforcement least show up, do their jobs. nothing is being done about it. this is 100 percent being held accountable at your state's journey. and just turning in the fact that it's a voted position elected position. so either these people need to be voted out of office, or they need to do their jobs. it's the only solution for this. and one thing that people don't really realize with the american system is that you have the states level and then you also have the federal level so on. if you're going to put it right there on the table, is this situation any different between last administration in this current administration? no, because these are done occur one cities for the most part. so they're states, they're states issues. they're against that federal. i don't know what the federal government could do to step in outside of funding more police. but then again, we've got this giant defun,

the police movement. so when you have the public perception right in the, by the and you owe all last year you had are all this year you had the on the police movement. so again, it was a misconstrued movement. people don't know what it is, but they think that's going to eliminate police off the street. if you have the white house backing the concept of defending the police, your senators, your, your, your congressmen and women, you're going to have your criminals thinking we can do whatever. and then when they do whatever, and they're not being prosecuted. let's just keep on doing it. so it, this is we're getting exactly what the voters wanted for apparently. indeed, and it's interesting to your thoughts. dominic is a retired police officer. someone who has experience on the ground with these sorts of things. appreciate your thoughts here in our international. thank you. i with everything going on in the world right now, you would hope a little christmas cheer might take a lot of people's minds off it. however, some politicians aren't so sure. not least being worried that they're using the right language to describe the winter. holidays will tell you more at short break.

stay with us. this is our international ah ah ah this in their interest for some financial plan is to see the value of the currency lose value because they can gain traction on social media saying it's somehow

a good thing, but not everybody isn't undertaken. not everyone is a grave, robert, you know, some people are actually out there trying to be productive and lean productive lives. and of course, that philosophy of, oh, the currency has gone to 0 and less than 0. and that's a good thing is a is a, is the, is a mat lewis ah, welcome back is hasanti international. now lawmakers have criticized european commission plans for a so called woke christmas. politicians warned the inclusive language proposed is essentially an effort to canceled christian traditions and blacks, common sense with commentary here is artists, south taylor, it's not easy being the european commissioner for quality. because when the rest of your colleagues and brussels are figuring out how to stop yards from overheating, how to stop migrants from drowning it, see how to resuscitate the economy and how to mandate vaccinations without starting

revolution. you have to focus on the really serious issues. ah, with john? yes, the current commissioner, helen dalley, has been busy during our guidelines for inclusive communication, an operable goal? the thing is helena miss, right the room? it's been a long 2 years since coven fast rocked up people. a tired christmas is woman cozy and it already got stolen last year. moreover,

europe is overwhelmingly christian. so when the document got leaks, that wasn't exactly. yeah. she have fans outside her door to film, but i think this document is absolutely offensive. everyone must be proud of their origins and traditions, but also of the religious faith. oh, there's a lot of hypocrisy distorting christmas, and the language we use at this holiday is really shameful. i grew up in the family were christmas. it's always been wonderful. the fairy tales waiting, and i don't see why my children have to deny themselves this opportunity. i don't want to do it either as a parent or as a politician. i am indignant if someone in europe wants to change all this and wants to do it in my house. it's all absurd. the probably not to surprise, but one institution with a particular bone to pick was the catholic church. what was it being they gotten tradition on christmas and generally christianity. so one of the vaskins cardinals tore himself away from morning prayers to issued this rebuke. it, boy, there is the cancellation of our roots. the christian i mentioned for europe, especially with regard to christian festivals,

with the fear of god to put into her daddy, withdrew the guidelines as they clearly need more work. yes, meaning christmas has been saved from the you, grinned chez. so now, but it just seems to be the season for bashing yuletide because across the channel the u. k. government was looking for a catchy tick tock. so going to encourage students to get faxed before the holidays job and go whoa, whoa, whoa, mary medina, christmas, that kind of thing. and though the celebration of jesus is, boss hasn't really bothered anyone since it started during the roman times. london decided and 2021 that it just doesn't cut it anymore. we have been advised by the cabinet office that we should not use the word christmas that the government campaign needs to be inclusive and some religions don't celebrate christmas. the other option was festive season. which keeps the emotional motivation we have gone with. don't take coven 19 home for the holidays as it links to school and

university christmas holidays. in cat shame turns out, though that very well paid civil simons are not in touch with reality. shocking. because if you believe twitter, those non christians, with how you want to bond stockings sabotage center and just topple the tree on trafalgar square, actually quite light christmas. in fact, the general consensus seems to be, you said, how did a christmas? cuz it's a holiday. exactly. nice thing. yeah. can we have them nice things any more, a question that no doubt millions of breadth our staff to hearing the latest advice from this government official. well, affordance was, i don't think there should be much smoking on the mistletoe that needs to things like that. so yes, with grinned his are king in every chimney. it seems it's not just covered. might steal christmas. an excuse me, please take that snow covered thought she coming associate at the break particular holiday and to some out of here. so in appropriate. so

a senate says use 13 to read the guidelines. rushes ambassador to sudan has warned that a potential refugee in flux from the northeast african country could overwhelm europe. a transitional government is attempting to try and restore peace and stability there right now, which the russian ambassador says is crucial to avert a potential humanitarian crisis. to cancel them, sudan is indeed located in a turbulent place. geographically it's regional surroundings are a source of instability that could lead to conflict in the region. and the consequences of such a conflict will be felt far beyond the countries borders. i mean, 1st of all, a huge flux of migrants, instability sedans, would from them to head north to europe, which will be a nightmare for our partners if saddam were to disintegrate, which i'm not saying is on the agenda of god forbid. but generally, if it's just a scenario occurred, it would displace a huge mass of people who would seek a country where they could secure a decent living. that's why our main goal now is to spare no effort and secure abilities to done in this very responsible period of time. you repeat the situation

and so darn remains troubled, rather than precarious and uncertain as it was just a few weeks ago. in the immediate aftermath and what many called the military school when it intervened into government business. and since then, the military and the prime ministers of the civilian prime minister have cut a deal, a power sharing deal boat side, saying that this was the best option out of many options above be even worse. they hope that this will prevent or stop and stall the downward spiral here and so darn economically in terms of prizes as well as socially and politically. the instability was reaching critical levels and it shows there is a lot less instability. it is evident protests, a drawing, much fewer people when instead of, ah, hundreds of thousands or even tens of thousands. we're seeing it here in the capital. just

a few 1000 people here in the opposition called opposition schools for, for a 1000000 people say to come out and to protest against the prime minister's decision. a former alliance with the military. something that many opposition activists here are, are unhappy with a divided over ah, we're seeing of worrying patton, emerging all over the world now, these inflation price hikes, it is especially acutely felt here. and so don and surrounding countries where people had very little to begin with, where there is not enough humanitarian aid and where inflation is in the thousands

of percent. and that is, that is a cause for a lab because as people get angry, hungry and more desperate, they could reach a crescendo, a crescendo which will be felt the consequences of which will be felt throughout the region and internationally. that is it for me, i'll be back in 33 minutes with another phone. fresh look to news. this is our international stay with us. ah, well, the mic no, certainly no borders under slide 2 nationalities. and you various as a merge, we don't have a therapy, we don't have a vaccine. the whole world needs to take action and be ready to people are judgment, common crisis with we can do better,

we should be doing better. everyone is contributing each in their own way, but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever. the challenge is great. the response has been massive. so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we are in it together with a pinnacle of evolution. everything's about terry. is the product to 4000000000 years of evolution in a specific environment? so a week. so in that sense, when we are, the lucky survivors are then to vote along a long process you. so as in to the springs at yellowstone, we will not do very well. we'll do much better in that sense.

for is your media reflection of reality. in the world transformed what will make you feel safer? isolation for community. are you going the right way or are you being that some with direct? what is true. wharf is great. in the world corrupted, you need to descend a join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. with

this is boom box to go one bit of the show you care at the board to mit bread to board. and i merge of london's in washington and coming up a new report reveals that at least 3 government agencies are still purchasing thousands of dollars worth of chinese technology. despite a federal ban and investigation has been large, but will there be any consequences we'll discuss. plus leaders of the world's largest. 1 economies came together to agree on a global tax deal, bought report lines that there are billing in dollars loopholes companies are using right now that were never address then inflation coupled with the emergence of the crime variant. and the ongoing supply chain crisis is a recipe for a holiday shopping disaster will take a look at the highly lucrative season for retailers, in fact, show today. let's dive right in and we leave the program with the remarkable story . as new reports indicate that u. s. federal agencies, including the military, have purchased china, made video surveillance equipment banned from use in the federal government. now,

according to purchasing records seen by tech crunch and video surveillance,
