ah, with guns, his dog sertina, joe biden and vladimir putin are scheduled for later on choose date triggered by tensions over ukraine. we talked exclusively to the russian president spokesperson and just reaching out to the rhetoric coming from the u. s. and e. u leaders sounds pretty aggressive. we see plenty of fake news about russia, allegedly planning and aggressive invasion. china shrugs offer u. s. boycotts of its winter olympics pointing, and the american diplomats weren't even invited as more

european states in both mandatory vaccines discontent. sweeps the block with protests on the streets and politicians decry, or they brand troubling state collision. ah, good morning and welcome you watching arti international. high stakes talks between the russian and us presidents are taking place later today amend ramp and speculation of a possible invasion of ukraine and increased nato activity in the black sea. ahead of that call, joe biden. set the tone by saying he won't accept any red lines from vladimir putin the same time the white house says it's not sinking conflict. in an exclusive interview with our t, the kremlin spokesperson told us, america's becoming increasingly aggressive towards moscow. museums on, at ashland. you must,

now we see that nato is taking an extremely aggressive position. we see mister salt and bugs rhetoric, we see the different u. s. leaders, rhetoric burst. they all say they don't accept any red lines. second, they say that nato will do whatever it wants. 3rd, it will do it on whatever territory it wants. 4th of all of this is aim to deter russia. we do not like that. we will do everything to insure our own interests at large in vars. now on the line up, a very important statement was made in the ukraine defense ministers interview to you. k media. he essentially caught the us canada and the u. k. military to the front lines and put out there to do that by, by passing nato vanya so, can you tell us, how much of a breach is that light of the red lines lie? to me, a putin had to find more and i'm like, well, we have heard similar statements from a number of european capitals, including as far as i know, a message from the british military that they were ready to send their troops over . not only those in training,

but those in combat units as well. this is something we are obviously very concerned about. this is something we do not like, and it forces us to take some protective measures to defend our interests. i think daniel hawkins is across the story for is good morning, daniel. both sides as usual climbing. they're not the aggressors. and yet the tension pretty palpable. how do you see this discussion going? all the presidents have only met once in parson that was back in summer at the geneva summit since then. they've had the various phone conversations, but this is the 1st time since that sour, they're meeting face to face even if it is online. and since then, really tensions have at best remained at a constant level and at worst of deteriorated spiraling at downwards. at further down on red lines really have been the, the buzzword of the day here today. russia claiming that bare red line would be at certain types of weapons, muscles, and troops in ukraine or says border. joe biden,

being quite caught broad saying he doesn't care about that, and he tends to do whatever he wants. and this comes amid unconfirmed reports. of course allegations about a military build up on the russian ukrainian border on russia's territory, but allegedly, and preparing for some sort of invasion at the end of january. that's what much the media frenzy has been with hang up. and in turn, the threat of sanctions, once again coming up, joe bought and washington threatening sanctions against certain members of the russian government. and of course the so called nuclear option that's cutting off russia from the international banking swift payment system. that was something that was put on the table by washington, and some of it was sort of left there. now it's being actively discussed once again . so as we say, both sides accusing each other or facility of aggression, the russian president, spokesman, know me to pass golf again, dismissing these allegations or plant invasion as a simply hostile rhetoric. just to jeanette into which the rhetoric

coming from the u. s. and e u. leaders sounds pretty aggressive. we see plenty of fake news about russia allegedly planning an aggressive invasion at the same time. no one talks the key of nor warns key of against even thinking of a military intervention in done yet. and lou guns, conflict, and given the complicates a background of us russian relations. it will be a difficult discussion for the leaders. the presidents obviously have the need to talk to each other. even in the most drained of moments when attitudes are not what i call rational or sober, but emotionally magnified, so as the escalation get stronger every day than the president's. you obviously bear the responsibility, feel the need to discuss the issues. well, the white house states that ahead of that main thing that secretary blinkin will be speaking to president of the scale of ukraine ahead of the video. cool. and also in a press briefing. interesting. it was our states that the u. s. i'm quoting here, doesn't see conflict with russia, but yet continues to threaten consequences for so called harmful actions by moscow

. whatever that might mean. now you repeat, lead is also ship to make cooler russia to avoid, to, to avoid deepening the ukrainian border crosses as this media hops up the threat of military action. and indeed, you claim this defense minister without rock call for the deployment of a troops from the us, canada, u. k. to the front lines to defend the game, so called russian aggression. moscow, of course, use things very differently. they view the russian coming from neither states that have built up troops on the border. so to summarize, it's quite hard to understand what exactly will come from this meeting. it's unlikely that there will be some sort of groundbreaking decisions. maybe this will be more of a setting of tone of what direction if you like, between the russian and us presidents and both will be trying to assert that authority that well vision with, for, with us person. donald trump. joking that this match up shouldn't be happening, it's not even fair. what they will be looking for is touching points of from eyes and consensus here. if they do find them,

we could see the escalation. if they fail to do so, we could see another spot or downwards into tip, but that sanctions and diplomatic expulsions as we've seen over the last few months . so all eyes are not meeting in just a few hours time yet because what we know, what has been said, well, we're getting lots of analysis and going through the full out from many thanks for the update. daniel. now paging has called a us diplomatic boy part of the 2022 winter olympics and right political provocation and manipulation, the wide austin turn site and concerns about the laced human rights violations in china. the by new ministration will not send any diplomatic or official representation to the beijing 2022 winter olympics and paralympic games given the peer scenes ongoing, genocide and crimes against humanity and john and other human rights abuses, the athletes and team usa have our full support will be behind them 100 percent. as

we hear them on from home, we will not be contributing the fanfare of the games. the standoff comes amid all ready tents relations, washington invasions political and economic competition, affecting other more spheres. or the chinese foreign ministry spokesperson said us politicians keep hunting up to the diplomatic boy without even being invited to the games. us athletes will still compete, however, and the, i see said that it respect spartans decision reiterated the importance of leaving athletes out of politics. we go ration from shanghai based politics, professor and a professor of history, a new mexico state university. they say the by the ministration is trying to politicize the games. it's an unnecessary slide against paging. it looks like a reactionary attempt by a week president, but you know, it does signal that the, by the ministration wants to politicize the olympic somewhat similar to what we saw between the us and the ussr during the cold war. now this will indicate the many by

does not subscribe the life experience a peaceful, athletic competition. we should keep in mind, however, that it's not a total boycott as your lead and noted. american athletes can feel compete. furthermore, it's not as provocative as what we see from the us with respect to ukraine against russia or taiwan against mainland china, or how the u. s. stand or the proliferation of nuclear weapon to australia. the bigger question now is whether other countries will follow washington fleet and impose similar boycotts and how china will respond. it's always unfortunate when you know the olympics is politicized. but i do think that the trend in american and china relations, despite the brief moment of, of call that seem to be expressed in the, in the video conference between general secretary, she and president biden, that that seems to have passed. and we're back to a more overtly hostile attitude. it's interesting, of course,

that american athletes will still be competing. american corporations that sponsor the olympics and broadcast out on television, of course don't want to lose out on their revenues. so i think that there's a very interesting dichotomy here between this attitude on the part of the government and the broader position of the olympics. the jet republicans confirmed mandatory vaccinations for people aged over 60 as well as for certain professions which include health care workers and police officers. the move comes after european commission president, a city of underline the states to consider mandatory jobs and to come up with a common approach, but does also strong opposition to it. keeping vaccinations voluntary in building trust and helping citizens make informed decisions has proved to be successful in reaching high vaccination rates in sweden,

transparent and understandable information should allow each person to make their decision freely. i'm generally very skeptical about coercion. i think we can reach an adequate vaccination rate by other means, nor would we reach 100 percent by force as well as political opposition as resistance on european streets with protest. sweeping austria, belgium, germany and civilian and things got quite touching brussels with people. hurling rocks, polices in tier gas and water cannon. ah, we while europe struggling with a record cove in 19 search daily cases rising almost eightfold since june. will

health organisation assist inoculation is the only way to end the pandemic. my colleague in an anal discussed is vaccination campaign with a panel of guests. we've gone through 2 years of, at least in this country. people saying one thing doing, doing the other than the lex street changing the rules. and when they opened up the parks in this country, for instance, that was the end of it. we're never going to be able to get back to the point where people need to make the tough decisions and allow employees to, to work from home without penalty or social ostracize ation. we know that vaccines do a fantastic job for a very safe medicine. and that protecting the health care systems in these different countries a little we're seeing, potentially potentially the central and eastern europe is a lack of trust that the government to think a lot of a lot of this is about bad old, poor messaging throughout the pandemic on the fundamental breakdown in the trust that the population individuals have with the governments, people should have the choice as to what medical treatment they had. crystal,

people were told that we start to have our 1st job, which we did and now a 2nd job. and now where it will be encouraged to have a booster like, where is it gonna end? do we have to have this coven vaccination every 3 months? so how, where is it going? no end. and it just seems quite confusing because government say one thing and do another thing. they tell us do this and then they change their mind for us to do that. lauren, so you fearful where this leads? if mondrey vaccinations do become widespread, i can see there being a massive backlash division. i think it is counter intuitive, you know, except that there's a degree of vaccine agency and i can understand it up to a point. and that's where i think with a message example, i wonder if you vaccine possible. there are other ways of doing this to try and persuade people about the the about getting back. so they did, i just wonder whether mandating vaccination is just to start to fall. i think there's absolutely a financial motive behind a lot of this. i think some of the financial motive is that governments aren't

willing to take some of the drastic for things such as locked down to restrictions . i think here in the u. k, you'll see something in january. if we look at universities, for instance, continuing to bring in students into areas and mandating. not that staff are vaccinated for instance, but that staff teaching areas that are crowded with students who were coughing, sometimes wearing masks. sometimes not a lot of this is because we're all living on economic bubbles that are just ready to burst and love nurses and little health care professionals. ready already leave it in the perfection, g to and you know, the problem is in the mental health issues. and now you want to make an injection mandatory. i don't think he is saying, i don't think it's right. and i think he's not to do educating people and given them the choice vaccine producers, including them, but turner, their warning that drugs there are drugs might be less effective against than you all me chron variant. if the proofs truth does up to simply purchase back to square one, i don't think so. i think it's likely that the current vaccines will have some impact,

even if that protection drops a few percentage. that's a big difference to the large population of infected individuals. and therefore we need to think other about other mitigations alongside parts and they should. we also need to take into account the controversial police crime sentences and course bill and given and we're living in a police state already. this is quite wiring. and now they're talking about force vaccines. it's very worrying, and i just ask myself, where is it gonna end to get over the last year and a half of governments that haven't been following their own rules and corporations that haven't been following the rules and making a profit off the backs of people who have to pay a lot of money sometimes to get access to vaccines. there's an inequality. and on monday evening puts in met with another of his counterparts in dis, prime minister. moran promoted that to parts of a russia india summit in new delhi. the meeting resulted in a raft of agreements including on health care in the military. and he said he

patricia was the and into his capital. he filed this reports to understand rushes international priorities this time allowed to understand where moscow stand on the global chessboard. it just worth realizing what the russian president vladimir potent was up to. he went to new delhi and left the indian capital late in the night. in fact, a lot of my potent and render muddy are always calling each other friends and they've had this warm relationship for years now already. but of course, it's not only about to be personal friendship between the 2 leaders in a joint statement that was already published on the kremlin website. there are $99.00 paragraph outlining the things that either have already been done together or that will be done together in the near future. this shows how much india and russia see why at this point, and how they want to increase cooperation in so many fields ranging from sy,

in nuclear cooperation, space exploration. but most importantly, a military ties as well. i can remind you that india is buying rushes arms in the is buying the most advanced missile defense system. russian made v as 400. russia is upgrading a nuclear power plant here. and this country, new delhi is ready to invest up to a $1000000000.00 in russia and rushes far east. in particular. this is of course, something that is raving quite a few eyebrows in the west. and if we're talking to the crucial military cooperation, trade in arms and weapons, there's a special program that outlined plans for a 10 year period. the previous one has just expired. and i can tell you that moscow in india have signed a new one, which is going to be valid until one t 31. and yes,

india has agreed to a sub, the famous russian colossal come guns to again joined on the line now by geopolitical unless colonel ro hits death. colonel, welcome. first of all, this really was packed. i shouldn't be anything. nobody had been brought a long time back. mentioned that the guy we did talk me a little bit of russian so i can pick a few places here and it was much appreciated. a nicely spoken this deal, a 10 year security packed. first of all, what does each nation get out of that? alright, i think in many ways this bill is a little digging nato and it got to get, he's forward. are you know, of the, your kind of interaction with actually, when he was even the soviet union. and we have been dealing with procurement of

a lot of hardware promise. you know, what this actually looks at is how we can go together to create nice technologies having a lot with most. so to say there is, there is a great deal of awareness bought at the handle for administration and russia. mister vladimir will be in our prime minister in the morning to take the story of manufacturing and india has been, so venues go on with any more heartbeat recruitment from russia. let's say whether you would take the, the ninety's, which happened whether you would take the s 400 coming in, but they will do a pre coming. and i think that's more of the nature of how we can develop a nice technology based the military hardware, the end user, which can be bought, taken in by the russian military and the indian military. i also see it from a very significant point of view in terms of the and what you will sign this. and if you take your attention to 3 or 4 and it was in particular which are in this

context. one is the g s, w one is just one of the sales and what it's doing is, is trying to get into whatever it is more get me to acknowledge these 4 metallurgy and i do from where i'm coming. when we had the b, m, b, 's, 2 and babies, one cities imported by india long ago in issues. and we had the technology and we are being made. we have been making this equipment in or be made in india. there were a lot of issues about the holographic about the other mental or d issues. and i think this is a rice time that even, you know, small small component of technology starting mcculler date will be a i, if i can put that back in there. i think india and i have got a tremendous potential to go develop technologies because today and there is a choice india as traditionally being, importing a lot from russia, so with your name as well. but india also,

i started looking at mr. acknowledges and global markets beyond their share to read to us and other countries as whether it is an indian interest or having commonality . all your equipment are to go with the boy am in a partnership monitor, which is also not military, but economy really also raised our price to rejuvenate and there. but it's robin of our prime minister and you have the industrial bought are coming up. i think the industry is going to step in in the big ways. so whether you look at that share from us we made for over or you look at the mission. ecologies emerging, i think, jointly, the aim is to get in more and more nice technologies in a, into our systems and to be able to exchange those noble and data forward manufacturing as a family in india, in the, in the larger bottle in the calendar year. and have normal growth for board, but countries you also find something to be with the movement of labor and people

and, and things like that, which gives a further in but as for having technology savvy technicians, having opportunities in india to come up with the manufacturing part so i think what all this next 10 years are looking very promising. india is able to make choices and believe you, me, when i say this with normal sincerity, people had a lot of no doubt about the s 400 blanks in light of the gotcha. but i think the india always made it very clear for 29 and onwards. we'll say that certain technologies, the military hardware in the national interests are very important. so i think we have the same band and india being a market driven economy is really ordering every component on the gum and sell in india. and that is leading to manufacturing in india. and i think we have the balance that we can do with any country in the world as, as

a lead market. i think that is where you'll find a synergy and that is pilot, that there is a way to go it as well. kennel, ro, geopolitical. i missed my guess. thank you. welcome. with ever more cases of sexual violence in female prisons being perpetrated by so 510 to find trans women, many all questioning laws that allow them to choose the time to prison. they serve time and the women's liberation front is suing the state of california for once its law is lead to join dances. saskia tell us to show some harrowing stories of women left in fear of re meet princess so we andromeda love, formerly known as hobby bang. i'm an ex inmate at the washington correction center for women and one of 3 transgender prisoners who transferred that this year. but why are we talking about this individual and not the thousands of others who've

passed through the same doors? after being sentenced to prison, after being found guilty of having had sexual relations with the 12 year old girl bingham decided to identify as a woman and be called andromeda love. in this way, he managed to be transferred to the correctional center for women in washington. once there, he was found by prison stuff along with his cell mate, an inmates with a developmental disability in a bed and without clothes for following this incident, prison all far tis determined that love had raped her vulnerable soul mate, who was already a victim of sexual assault even more troubling prison self allegedly didn't file a report. and our fears that similar incidents could still take place. a former god that shares these fairs, believing that a weak system is being taken advantage of by deceitful men. because whilst the states prison department says that his policy ensures call treatment and that there is a rigorous screening process,

according to the person who's being on the inside the realities a little different. jeremy prerequisite is not the man mister identifies female. they are required to have hud reassignment surgery don't need to be in the process of transitioning, nor do they have to be on a home or in regimen. the only requirement is that they must proclaim to identify as a woman fleming, even claims that love got a show had caught and refer to, to identifying as male upon being released, and that of the transgender inmates at the same perhaps, on surprising than that, the policy of prisons in washington state has come on to scrutiny just as a has a bit farther down the west coast in california. because that earlier this year, a law was passed, allowing and mates to choose housing based on that gender identity. now since that around $300.00 requests have been made. oh, nice 6. so far have been denied numbers that have scanned some so much that are

lawsuit has been filed, claiming that the bill unconstitutionally puts women at risk. so cynical exploitation of fundamental human rights with wild increasing you to guided over the issue i spoke to lauren adams, legal director of the women's liberation front. the organization behind that very little suit. the reason we have, you know, women only present that we separate by sex is because men pose a danger to women. and there is no evidence that men who identify as transgender, regardless of what they've done to change their bodies, that they've posed less risk to women. i would imagine that in the course of your why can i know property preparing thought little suit as well? you have spoken to a number of female inmates and i just wanted to get your kind of general reaction as to what it is that you're hearing from them. we're hearing that they're, they're scared and they feel humiliated. this feels like

just adding insult to injury. it's also important to know that many of the men who are transferring over have female co defendants are ex partners where in the women's presence. so just in california there's, i know 2 women personally and there's a number of other women who i haven't spoken with who have their co defendants who have transferred over one of them. the man who transferred over killed her children and he has been put in her facility that she lives and have you had also a from anyone of cases where someone refer to twice dent flying as a male off. they were released from prison because that seems to be, i was when i was doing research, but that didn't seem to be a concern among some, i don't know about after they've been released, but i do know after they've been transferred. so there is at least 2 who are in there now, who after they were transferred, stop taking hormones. they had been taking hormones and stopped in california alone

. and many of them have they, you know, dress more feminine or where their camera, feminine in the men's prison. and then when they arrive at the women's prison cut their hair, they start act, you know, acting like man is, is how it's been put to me. and, and it's, it's, it's very terrifying for the women who have to share space with them and have to sleep in a locked room with them. have to shower in front of them and use the toilet in front of them to feel unsafe and to be unsafe. in that way, the medical have that be more reports of sexual assault, has that been pregnancy? for example, is contraception. now, 100 out. we know that they have been handing out condoms. they have changed their policy from as of when this was implemented so that other contraceptives such as birth control, hormonal birth control, and other things are available to the women inmates. which of course, is there, acknowledgement that these are men who are being transferred in there or else why

would they need birth control? how's that being a case? female inmates feeling unsafe? will maybe they themselves have been a victim of something ton to the prison authorities for advice for help and found that they didn't receive anything. going back to california to because that's the one i'm the state i'm work the most. and on this issue they, there was one woman who was sexually assaulted by one of the the, the transferred inmates. and she immediately disclosed to staff like within, within a few minutes of it happening. and they told her that if she wanted to be separated from him, that she needed to basically move herself to either go to administrative segregation which is essentially solitary. and then go to another prison. there was no chance that he would be remote from her space. and it wasn't until we got involved and

you know, she was able to get them to finally treat it as a prison, rape elimination act complaint where they take it a little bit more seriously. so until that happened a, just so we don't know how many women have been dismissed like that. it's happening more and more. and we get emails from people and calls from people all the time, letting us know that it's happening in the state or that state. and it's just happening quietly because people know that it's not a defensible thing to do and so they don't talk about it. it's up to us to expose it. ok it up today. i'll be back in half an hour. i.
