9:02 pm
am of course, one of only a few on red square there. thursday, the scene, it fits actually close at the venue entirely to the public eye, of course, because of covert regulations. but i've got plenty to keep me company here as a just seen the fantastic firework salute lighting up. there must go sky over red square as the main clock on the main tower of the kremlin, counted on those last seconds at 2021 and chimed those in to 2022. now, there wasn't a 1st place in russia, a country of 11 time zones to welcome in the new year. of course places in the far east, like lavar stock and come chuck have already seen this new year and there were people in and around red square that did break the cold, but minus 5 in the snow. and to get a closer look at the firework display, we talked to some of them before. nothing seemed to dampen their spirits. they were full of cheer and wishes and hopes for 2022. we can see what some of them said are
9:03 pm
right now, we are cautious over several, a shirt learns, i wish happiness to every one. and that we finally overcome coven, where masks, and get vaccinated than everything we find at will receive their gifts in the new years. as the edition, what the i have said in the new year, we'll be traveling somewhere where to our case and not mandatory. and we can have a break from our masks and forget about the previous year. i wish every one happiness health a peaceful sky above their heads and for things to turn out better for people than they can even imagine to mr. the whole nation seems to have gotten through some, some real hard times at the moment, but they really are going into the new year with their togetherness and solidarity . as i said, for those watching that on from russia, this is the biggest celebration in the russian calendar. just imagine your birthday, the birthday of everybody, you know, and christmas all rolled in. so one that's how big new year is and those that have gathered around red square in moscow in the parks and wherever they can get to,
9:04 pm
they will be going home, maybe to eat a little more than they should be able to drink a little more than they should and perhaps to be with their, those families am and be in the warmth away from this cold as they say. russia has a met 2022 well and happy new year. 2022 is making its way around the globe as time zones of course vary from country to country. the new year has been slowly coming in with an array of fireworks. 3 here are some of the big displays, then. these are scenes coming in from hot dubai, where the burge can leave. a famous skyscraper was lit up with breathtaking visuals, and fireworks. nearly 170000 kilograms of fireworks were reportedly used for the display. next are images from australia and the scenes there? well, they equal in comparison to the ones into by it's a dazzling display in sydney harbor and comes after months of strict, probably locked downs and restrictions down under ah,
9:05 pm
over in germany, there is a bit of a challenge for people celebrating new years there. the government has banned the sale of fireworks for a 2nd year in a row to stop large gatherings and prevent the spread of coven. however, has seen many germans out with authorities and hop across the border to poland to buy their festive supplies with more. here's our, your corresponding, peter oliver, the run, the birth date, the location for the traditional job and new year's celebration. it's also home to an annual fireworks extravaganza. the it's about the only place you'll see them lighting up the night. sky is the country rings in 2022. the german government has found their private sale. as part of the last round of coven measures brought in at the start of december. it's hard to knock the reasoning behind the decision,
9:06 pm
les and hawk firewood displays between midnight and the early hours. less calls to the emergency services. also less people mixing and gathering bond on the sale of fireworks doesn't mean no fight with people being popping over the phone. and the stucco fireworks are part of the tradition to set them all and it would be a shame if it didn't happen while german paths may be rejoicing at the prospect of less frightening fireworks shops, selling them in poland and making hay. while this particular still shines at the moment because of the band in germany, we have about 300 customers a day. when we are pretty overloaded, they buy a lot, it varies, but on average, it's about 200 years per person. the band on selling small fireworks is purely a symbolic policy. the available figures show that a band will not noticeably relieve emergency admissions, nor will infection rates be effectively reduced. it's the 2nd year in
9:07 pm
a row that covert has put paid to firework sales. here in germany, and i should imagine it's left firework retailers. fizzing. one of the plus side to less fireworks is less clean up needed. in the aftermath, the german capital is usually smothered in a blanket of discarded munitions following the festivities. this year, revellers that don't get their hands on. some polish pyrotechnics we'll have to make do with the professional, displace peter all over all t berlin. most of us get just one shot at midnight to ring in the new year. but of course, it's a very different story when you're orbiting the earth, 16 times a day, and the crew on board, the international space station always celebrate in style. because space is cool. here is the russian cars, not new years message for all of us back down here on earth. lose. yeah. hi dear friends from the international space station where cosmo on santano capiro and

me. there will be a landing location in berry. so now we're gonna lie around. i feel we can actually see that as adding model and wait until it touches down with well, as you can see, the capital is on the ground. the crew is still inside, but we've been told that they're feeling. all right. somebody is speaking with the crew, right? now, so history has been made a russian professional to the makers and just went into space, but also safely returned to earth. with footage for their 1st ever feature movie
9:10 pm
that has been taken in actual space. the whole crew are treated like hero. with this film director clinched benco safe and sound just came from the space. the international space station is 400 kilometers above the earth surface. and a returning spacecraft usually covers the distance in 3 hours. for the most part, it's free fall and the speed can reach 120 meters per 2nd. extreme acceleration baird, with gravity taking in, puts the crew her enormous physical stress. nonetheless, she benco's seemed in high spirits. and those oci i said, those are good. were susan wiggling, although olga bullock though, wish that you could you be the glue, the who blossom again. she's working on one of the closure. my daughter, her mom excuse knows where she knew by the name willis. dora munoz garcia,

9:13 pm
a temperature outside reaches up to 2000 degrees celsius and it feels like you are inside a fireball, the mission is also a large tried forward for the russian space program which made space travel possible for 2 non cosmetic, after just 4 months of training and it's more than space tourism. it's about professionals from different areas and not just career cause menard's been able to go into space and do their job beat acting or something else. so as they had of rushes space agency to pay the bomb would help putting up with your boss beside the scope of them, but that it would not be to get the cutterson lowest done us. but other bit snellville which up but i am but a good thing, but don't some of you all a cup, but i am putting up him but, but that he was good percentage when you have a blessed on them but got to him of plan. ah, there is a lot of food for thought in the months to come about that, but for now everyone here including us, is just extremely excited to witness something that will definitely go down in
9:14 pm
history as an erotic of reporting from as a stand still to come on the program, we look back at how the rivalry between britain and france cranked up a notch after a series of spats in 2021. let's really that have to short break students. ah. one of the worst ever mass shootings in america was in las vegas in 2017. the tragedy explodes a little of the real las vegas where many say elected officials are controlled by casino, knows the vegas shooting. revealed what the l v and p d really is. and now it's part of the stand machine. most of the american public barely remembers that it happens that just shows you the power of money in las
9:15 pm
vegas. the powerful showed that true colors when the pandemic heard the most contagious contagion that we've seen in decades. and then you have a mayor who doesn't care. so here is caroline goodman, offering the lives of the vegas residence. to be the control group. to the shiny facades conceal a deep indifference to the people. vice could have been saved if they were to take an action. absolutely, keep the registering and keep the slot machines doing business as a money machine is a huge cash register that is ran by people who don't care about people's lives being lost to ah, us, things that have happened in the world are being done by people who had a great vision of how society could be better, but that great vision is typically the left hemisphere representation is not real. it doesn't take into account any of the complexity of reality. the subtlety of how various and complex people are. it puts them into categories is this lot is bad,
9:16 pm
we'll get rid of them. you know, and change is an organic process. change is an evolution, and the opposition is not between the status and everything must stay the same and everything must be radically changed. radical change is not the way that q ah ah, welcome back to our international now looking back at more of the stories that made headlines in the last year, the centuries old rivalry between britain and france made a big come back in 2021. there were disputes over refugees and fishing rights and also bickering over a controversial defense deal. our france correspondent,
9:17 pm
charlotte davinsky, takes look back france and the u. k. have been like 2 squabbling neighbors for a millennia. at times those disputes have descended into full blown wars. but for over a century, there has been this relative, calm, not is until now. in the past, the u. k is had plenty of success against france on the high seas, but now the french are looking to recapture access to waters between the 2 countries. for fishing rights only going to print it, we still, since the beginning of this year don't have the licenses side. we're not fighting with the english and we're engaging in dialogue to try to make our position understood so that we can get access to these waters. so i think we may have to go further find other approaches that may not have been previously addressed. the agreement signed today provides for retaliatory measures. europe must apply those
9:18 pm
measures for boil fishing tails. so rotten that france even threatened to turn off the u. kay's electricity supplies, but was this about more than simply making waves over fishing licenses? i suspect also that there are many reasons why right now are having a spot between the british and the french is very convenient for both for a minute, for the prime minister of great britain, for the french president. of course, it is about more than fishing licenses. 98 percent of fishing licenses that were applied for were already granted. the french thing is about 40 votes. it's is just something to sort of keep it alive for other quarrels between france and britain are all serious, but that one is, is completing the manufactured. even though the u. k. has now granted more licenses . french fishermen are still unhappy and continue to threaten british imports.
9:19 pm
now that brings us to another bone of contention migrants the u. s. wholly still struggling to find a way to deal with mass, illegal migration. but the brakes think francis found a solution. turning a blind eye to those who try and cross the english channel, france is failing to police its coastline. we could fund double the number of french police, but they are not serious about intercepting migrant groups in broad daylight. it would further anger taxpayers here by throwing more good money after bad. i believe this reluctance to intervene. this refusal to get involved is a political decision. president emanuel micron is seeking re election next year and thinks dumping on the british will win in bots and go, was really stoked following the deaths of almost 30 people in the english channel in november. now they had been trying to reach the u. k. shores, but france hit back telling the u. k to stop it's latches. britain is in no position to be giving lessons to us. britain should stop using us is
9:20 pm
a punch bag in the domestic politics. correlations came to a stand off as british p. n. johnson. and his views on twitter, now that 3 french president, my con, into a hissy fit. just for shockley, the method, i'm surprised when things are not done seriously. we don't communicate between leaders via tweets or publish letter. so we're not whistleblowers. come on some but you know, all of this came on the back of a bumpy summer for france. 80 just found out that it's dean of the century with australia to build a fleet of submarines had been torpedoed in favor of a new one with the u. s, canada, and oh yes, the u. k. hotly a recipe for success. but what the issues between the u. k. in france really boils down to might have more to do with the opinion the to leaders half of each other. i think it was really a political thing and the of the, the side effect sort of to,
9:21 pm
to stuff, to add up fuel to the fight between france and great britain that was just an added plus each of them a win, mccoy and boys johnson sees and the other, what they hate most bars, johnson is shambolic disorganized. he goes on the fly, he has a sense of humor amendment. michael is a control freak. he, he's a bureaucratic technocrat. he is, has attention to detail and, and both of them they work in different ways and they despise the where the other functions they don't like one another. i mean it's, it's is rarely politics rally personal. but in this instance, each of them has got a sort of vision of how they want international relations to go on. it's not the others. and then it becomes personal francais, even try to get the e, you invested in only ongoing scored rolls, taking a very one for all and all for one approach. the e. u,
9:22 pm
though has remained relatively aloof, but that is a whole other capital of fish, charlotte, even sky r t. paris. and finally, on the last day of 2021, we spoke with the hungarian foreign minister to get the you perspective on some of the main events that shaped 2021. from nato's tense relationship with russia to finding solutions to the coven. pandemic ah, for our central europeans, it's extremely important that east and west that the united states and the russian federation have a direct and continuous dialogue. we are very happy with the fact that the 2 presidents spoke again for nato. and there i shall talk to each other and then there's a much bigger and better hope for any kind of common understanding and agreement about this part of the world. look,
9:23 pm
we really do consider the the security situation of central europe as a crucial issue for us and anything that helps to resolve challenges here and ease tensions around the region service our interest. so that's why we are really interested in successful negotiations between nato and the russia at the beginning of next year. it is very easy for politicians to finger point on one specific country on one specific person on one specific decision. in order to push responsibility away, the russian federation on the gas from have always been very reliable partners from hungary when it comes to the supply of, of natural gas. all the contracts have been respected and the schedule was
9:24 pm
respected. the volumes arrived always on time, and as far as i understand, no one in europe complains about about why elating contract by gas from so what we can say is that gas from the russian federation respects the contracts which were assigned between european countries, european companies, and russia and gas from maybe this is not the most sophisticated sentence you ever hear from a politician on energy or gas supply. but our understanding is that the, the more pipelines the better it has been an our agenda as well to, to see how we can further increase the number of those who get the vaccination. because we do consider that as the only solution for the
9:25 pm
crisis we in hungary have a very clear experience. more than 6000000 hungarians have been vaccinated. we have been using 6 different types of vaccines, including including sino farm and for western types of vaccines. pfizer ross doesn't come with that man that young's and so we have a very colorful experience. i do believe that the fact that new car has not been recon lies by the international organizations is a purely political issue. you know, when i, when i talked to western european colleagues of mine, they always tell me that, well, they all know that the, the russian scientific community is out standing. they all know that the russian medical solutions are successful. they all know that the russian vaccines are safe and effective, and none of the vaccines are worse than and the other i think is that for us this
9:26 pm
