4:01 pm
while fuel costs are broken. i think i've completely lost the job on that one. i have to put a really crazy new our in house because we're trying to get down with bringing you 7 days worth of top stories and one half hour block. this is the weekly and archie. let's get into it. novak joke of a chance been deported from australia. the tennis world number one was forced to leave after a court upheld the decision to revoke his visa over vaccine. she's. he will not miss i to on participating in the australian open, which he has dominated the tennis association of the stars home country of serbia pull no punches and it's reaction to the business. the tennis association of serbia expresses its great disappointment with this decision of the australian court. this
4:02 pm
time politics has won over sport, the best tennis player in the world, novak jock of ich validly fulfilled all the prescribed requirements and rules of the organizes of the australian open in the host country for participation in the tournament, which was confirmed by the decision of the court of the same country, serbian sporting and indeed top political officials certainly making their feelings felt about the deportation done. yeah, absolutely. and the impression that this is mainly a political decision. and because increasingly coming from many quarters around the world, we didn't from of course, not just the space to court cases in australia. that 1st court case was based on a kind of he's off his visa, off his medical exemption id submitted, his documents, his evidence of medic looks at reception in a timely unappropriate. minor case was won by his legal team, a judge ruled in favor. this cool case was based on something very different by the powers that immigration minutes,
4:03 pm
the attic for you to deport him from the country. and that was based on the perception that he could be, quote, an icon for the anti back movement, enough pose a risk, some sort of health risk for australia. and even perhaps, insight civil unrest, quite strong was of course there used by austrian officials and we heard of course from leo street prime minister scott morrison, who said a multiple occasions. this is a defense of the countries borders. that the reason was trailer had relatively few deaths, relatively few cases was because the country had defended their borders so strongly . that was also echoed by immigration minister, alex ford, who said he welcome miss decision of defending australia's borderline of keeping people safe. the association of tenants professionals has not so outright criticize this decision. they've not outright been critical of the decision, but expressed that regret what's up and saying it's not good for the image of
4:04 pm
tenants as a sport. it's not good without the least of participated and things would have been better had they turned out differently. so being leaders they, serbian top officials have certainly not meant that word and stating this decision was political. this was put in place to make an example of noble joke, of which it was very easy for us rental for it is to say from the very beginning that okay, only vaccinated on the inoculated people could enter australian territory. but it is a safe hope. everything completely different story, including this medical exemptions i think was fairly and what's right for it is cumulative themselves was this kind of procedures pressing against your courage, missing the years. i think the decision is scandalous. i'm disappointed and i think it showed how the rule of law functions in some other countries, that is how the rule of law does not function. it is incredible to me how we have
4:05 pm
to totally opposed court decisions within just a few days. so there have been 11 days of physical and psychological harassment. i think many will take away 3 aspects from the court decision if politics, perception and precedent. because ultimately this decision has been taken by the immigration minutes, the based on his perception, but noble joker, which is perceived by others as an anti backs icon, whatever that may mean. and this could have consequences beyond talker which be on cobra, restrictions beyond tennis. that's why the president of the people could be back and forth and based on perceptions alone. the bottom line though, for the player himself down, is that in years that come, the record books are going to simply show the joke, which did not win his for in a row. he did not win his 21st grand slam on for whatever reason, valid or otherwise as you've been going through. a stealing officials have cost him the chance to make history. yeah, absolutely, and the certainly the reaction has been coming in throughout the day and will
4:06 pm
continue to do so. joker bits himself has of course left australia the people tracking he flies on flight radar as it left australia to, to go home joker. but to say he's actually disappointed, he will, they respect the decision, he will corporate with authorities. but really we have seen out poor of support for the sub tennis play. we saw the stair, the images of people in the streets supporting him and protesting against that decision to keep them attention for days while his case was resolved. and indeed, a host of tennis players around the wells have also expressed their indignation at so worst or best at least disappointment, that things have worked out the way they have the very sad day in history of tennis . it said when politics beat common sense, the laws one for all, but interpretations are different for all shameful to target one because of his beliefs which are different from others. do you know when an icon of free choice
4:07 pm
isn't welcome in a western country? things have gone back crazy. there was a political agenda at play here with the elections coming up, which couldn't be more obvious. this is not his fault. he did not force his way into the country and did not make his own rules. he was ready to stay home with venice association of serbia, just another organization that really questioned the message, australia is sending in the way it treats athletes ahead. of course, hosting 1000000 pick games in bruce, but in 20 about he to saying when serbia host sporting events they will treat to athletes that interact with abilene was albany questions and a very different way. and also saying that the impartiality was sacred live, the rule of impartiality had not been a product as your cabbage. in this case, all the former tenant stars have gone even further. one form a professional tennis player during paolo's when bowman, cuz he was flavio back in the late ninety's. and what has happened today in a fiery message, bombs were thrown by world powers at civilian facilities in our city. and our
4:08 pm
youngest fellow citizens and friends were killed. now the world's powerful are putting pressure on you to give up because in other ways, in a fair and sporty way, no one can defeat you. whatever you view and what's happened, the joke of it, this is most of the issue as we can see from money is going to continue to draw motions under. but as the days goes on, because as we said this has why the ramifications and just joke of it's just coded just tennis to do with him, postulates he legality. the way athletes are treated as people who bear responsibility for public opinion. so certainly no motive issue and one that will continue to cover. obviously in the coming days or ellis cash, more author of the book making sense of sport spoke to the program earlier. he is of the view, the trillion government has made joke, a bitch, a martyr. by deporting him, this is manifestly a political decision as the world knows scott morrison has a terrible actions looming in about 4 months time. and he's been rewarded this
4:09 pm
morning with a response from the australian public, which seems to endorse the decision of yesterday and government to deport jock of as well. the thing that the state and government has missed that it said before, alex hope, immigration minister said, i don't want to make a more to out of our a hero who joked edge by allowing him to play. but by deporting him by excluding him from the, the tutor and he's done exactly that because and you've access around the world. now we'll be looking at junk of edge and saying this guys being persecuted for no other reason than the fact that he is exercising is individual liberty, his choice not to be vaccinated. and of course, he will become a martyr on the kremlin, is insisting on a concrete response from the u. s. to it's propose security guarantees. washington
4:10 pm
sees it all, give it in writing next week that follows in depth talks between moscow and nice. so russia, whoever said those negotiations, highlighted, continuing differences with ukraine being the main stumbling block, taking us through all that our teach, charlotte davinsky, how do you solve a problem? like russia, easiest on the fastest way is for a shot to deescalate it is russia that has to make a start trice, the escalation and diplomacy, or confrontation and consequences. that was the view from the us, a nato, after they held a series of meetings with their russian counterparts. on the one hand, they repeatedly said that they were there to find solutions on the other. that solution was some have suggested one sided. russia has to make giant strides towards reducing into military presence anyway, me, ukraine. if there is to be
4:11 pm
a d escalation of tensions for the russian delegation, the double speak was too much. we are fed up with loose dog, half promises, misinterpretation of what happened, that different forms of negotiations have behind closed doors. we do not trust the other sites. so to see we need iron clad. waterproof bulletproof, the legally binding guarantees not assurances, not safeguards guarantees. russia was also accused of not being serious about finding solutions to ease the frictions as it continued to deny its planning to invade ukraine. moscow saddened for clear proposals before the meetings took place, outlining what assurances it wanted from the west for its own security. that crucially
4:12 pm
included nato slamming the door on membership to post soviet countries like ukraine, moscow old. so hit out that meters idea of security, did not extend to non members union that nato expansion doesn't solve any problems of security. it moves division lines but doesn't remove them. so these are the other things to say. nathan lodgement is aggressive, absolutely not true. and nathan launch month has been a cornerstone for the spread of democracy and freedom across europe. molto regurgitated the line that it is not a threat to russia. moscow didn't agree. the u. s. and nato continued to conquer militarily, the territories of the countries included in the alliance and place offensive weapon systems there. this directly poses a threat to the interests of the russian federation was a final stab was made at finding common ground in vienna at the organization for security and cooperation in europe,
4:13 pm
a supposedly neutral ground where and fortunately, the language from country representatives was anything but it seems that the risk of war in the always sea area is now greater than ever before. in the last 30 years, the europeans also went down the smear campaign route, following a massive cyber attack and government sites in ukraine. the eas, top diplomat tinting one can figure out who is behind this strike. the hackers have not yet been identified. and while the west continues to state it is spread democracy in put security to countries. russia's foreign minister disagrees. the west went too far. let's be frank in violation of all international obligations and common sense they chose to escalate this situation. well, you see the west condemns violent actions against civilians. they condemn human
4:14 pm
rights violations. but when bloody codes are carried out by those who swear their allegiance to the west, the west embraces them. this is what happened with the ukrainian qu. many people died there, including the hands of provocateurs and his crew was approved by the united states and the europeans just accepted that as fact. and no one is going to investigate the my down atrocities a mammoth week of talks has ended with well, a lot of hot air, no concrete proposals to move things forward. the only thing that they saw eye to eye on really was just how far apart they are, and that if talks fail, the consequences could be catastrophic jollity than sky r t amsterdam. meanwhile, after political commentators argue that facebook has been exercising political censorship in u. s. foreign affairs, the big tech giant has entered into the russian natal conversation. it has bummed, a russian facebook account used for content on the talks,
4:15 pm
according to her russian politician. the reason for it for posting, quote, prohibited content. the politician out of the page use was for statements from russian officials. a rush in the u. s. remain on different tracks. that's the conclusion of the cremeans spokesperson, following security talks between the countries this week, talking to u. s. media, he also rejected the latest accusations still being voice in washington that moscow is preparing a false flag operation in order to invade ukraine. in well, on friday, sweden began deploying armored vehicles and soldiers in response to increased quote russian activity in the region according to its military, some 10 armoured combat vehicles and dozens of armed personnel. sedley faithfully the small port time of visit on the strategically located island of goslin. the move came after 3 russian london ship sailed into the baltic sea,
4:16 pm
amid increase tensions between russia and that nato. we saw this playbook in 2014, i. they are preparing this playbook again and the, and we will have the administration will have further details on what we see as this potential laying of a pretext to share with the press. over the course of the next 24 hours mr. sullivan promised to publish the proof of these accusations within 24 hours were still waiting for that proof. were living in a world of fake accusations, fake news, and in the world of lies until it's proven somehow, we'll continue to presume it is fake news. well, to discuss the latest developments, let's head state side inspector journalist and or 3rd, daniel lazar, done the welcome to the program. so there we have at the kremlin spokesperson sing rush, and the u. s. remain at odds over security guarantees as he put it for russia without
4:17 pm
that's is progression in relations hard to see here. yeah, i can see how it can be progress if the, if the u. s. a, nato insist on sticking to their, their current policy. i mean, the idea that that nato poses no threat to, to russia as, as gen stoughton. burke said is ludicrous. and even the new york times is admitted that it, that russia security concerns are legitimate and should be addressed. and the obvious way to address them is to call a halt to. busy busy nato's eastward drive, but the u. s. maintains, that's impossible. that just makes no sense at all. yet, despite the hype in the run up to those talk screen, russia and nato must say the west has not made any concessions with regards to its red lines on military activity. yet, diplomacy dictates that some compromises reached. therefore, have the discussions been worth anyone's time. so far, well,
4:18 pm
i think they have been productive in some way. and i think that the discussions amount to a tacit admission by nato of the us got russia as security concerns should be taken into accounts in some way. but so far it looks like the u. s, the west has merely taken them into account and just in order to dismiss them out of hand, but at least there are talks, at least there is some concession that russia, something to be worried about. i was looking if the russian troops in advance of the borders of germany, i mean western europe would be very concerned and they would, they would demand some kind of. busy you know, some kind of concession by the russian. but no, but, but the, but the now that nato is advanced the borders of russia. somehow, nato can't understand what the class is all about. this is ridiculous. that's my very point. just the video we were shown before speaking to you, daniel russia,
4:19 pm
once again being told, the escalation is its responsibility. yet, at the same time, the swedish army has just deployed its own troops on gottlieb island, near russian territory, in response to height intention. so i suppose that's all right, but what mosque was doing? is belligerent. it's aggressive. yeah. and the, and the, and the latest. the latest accusation for us into the u. s. government that russia is smuggling. sabbath tours into eastern ukraine. i mean, this is outrageous. i mean, this is the same sources. so it's just that russia was paying bounties to move our dean an afghanistan to kill, to kill us troops. an accusation that was disowned by the u. s. military itself after several months. so, you know, so, and this latest accusation, which has no backup evidence of the, at all is an example of the propaganda campaign. the hot and the hostile aggressive propaganda campaign mounted by the u. s. and
4:20 pm
a campaign that makes russia very nervous. so out, so as america trying to calm things down or is that trying to raise the, the, the war fears you got, the west constantly reiterating its full support to ukraine. however, it's, of course, not in nato member. and, but the way they're speaking about it, is it just a matter of time? well, this is a situation and lo, hodgkins and donnette is a bleeding sword that's not going away. and the longer it at last, the greater the problem gross. there are that minced records which are on the table, which the ukraine essentially is refusing to, to, to consider the medical records. however, a very complicated they were, they would require a small miracle to, to be so you know, to be, to be approved by all the countries concerned. but you know, but the. busy the the that situation is. ready is a bleeding wound,
4:21 pm
it's not going away. it's only getting worse and, and new crane is a growing problem for both for both sides. daniel, thanks for your time today. always appreciated life from new york. daniel is our journalist and author. thank you. a man who took 4 people hostage of his synagogue in the u. s. state of texas on saturday has been identified by the f. b i as a 44 year old british citizen, my like 5 actress interrupted a morning service of the site. the f b i in dallas said investigations were continuing, but it's not believed any other individuals were involved. all of the hostages were freed and left unharmed. the incident ended with the death of the suspect when police storm the synagogue holding a 10 hours under both president biden and the u. k. 4 administered, describe the incident of terror. the a british energy provider fund itself,
4:22 pm
feeling the heat this week over its advice to customers on how to stay warm. it told people to cuddle their pets and to start jumps. it was part of a response to energy bills that are predicted to double this year. are you weighing up, eating or heating? is sales are projected to sort of 2000 pounds a year. we'll fret no more as one of britain's biggest energy supply as has come up with no one idea, but 10 ways to save on heating cost, not to any layer up, get the hot right, go with install job. and if that doesn't work, how about a courtesy? it isn't cut where the cat. okay, i don't have a cat, but i do have this guy. another simple suggestion is to leave the open door open after cooking, the capital of your kitchen, and eat a hearty bowl of porridge. and of course, make sure you have a decent pair of folks or flippers. apparently, all these are simple cost effective ways to keep warm this winter,
4:23 pm
but the company copy serious candidate. i think i've completely lost the floss on that, where i have to go to where we are today. try and not. i don't really crazy our in house because we're trying to get the cold down. you just think my, what else today, if that's true advice and you know i'd be slightly in salary by i'm and i believe i know why would they have been do i need to stop my energy done? i put an extra jump on them. and so yeah, i wouldn't want to be insulted by any other company that i wouldn't list until they got fixed a contract that would suit me. the advice and to customers comes as many households are extremely worried about rising energy costs. and despite that company apologizing for the l judge, suggestion politicians have criticize the coal policy approach. it is lawful and
4:24 pm
insulting. but then with this governments lack of an energy strategy, you will most expected. those comments will be right by people who have to choose between eating and heating. if that's the state of the country we are now and i find it quite depressing. being told to put on a instead of turning on your heating, if you can't afford it, at the time of such difficulty for so many families is plainly offensive. 2022 has already been given the total year of the squeeze of a one since a 2008 financial crash this year. wages will barely quote one. at the same time, bill jumped by 50 percent around 2000 pounds when britain's new energy price cap is 2nd april. this means in real time, people actually get a pay cut. and the situation is for the cost of living catastrophe. i think the nation we have the way to use that you could possibly have to do business with whole support from the government. so we've been forced to close our doors. we're
4:25 pm
only we're trying to close our weight back. so we're hope hotel and everything else . we use quite a lot of electricity and it's jeff i and i am terrified of the impact of businesses in the country. not just me. when i mean small businesses struggling, i just have to stop. we pay the bounce back later. the government and supposedly gave us, but we've got to pay them back. so all of a sudden, and i'm not going to do that, it's time to money and we were in debt anyway from the lock that i now they energy cost the solar and both electricity and gas b. sorry, i don't know how we supposed to pay them because we have no income and she's not alone. in fact, one in 3 people are worried that bills will become totally on affordable this year . and i'm thinking the government to for the bill. labor also piling on the
4:26 pm
pressure for the government to dish tax hikes and scrap v a t on feel all together . consider to ministers council the 0 carbon homes program. they bond on show when development, they lost the eco insulation program. they tore it up within one year, they were use the u. k is gas storage capacity. i don't want particularly silly movement. the current foreign secretary claim solar panels were risks to domestic food production. all of these decisions that have made this country more dependent on volatile wholesale energy prices than we otherwise would have been right now. we know this means as an extremely situate, extremely difficult situation to british household, but also risks making archways british industry and competitive a talk, a combination of spiking prices, tax hikes, the looming energy big bills on the government's a power reluctance to address these issues. may actually see ridiculous ideas like cuddling pat. how people overcome this. and the upcoming winter has become
4:27 pm
a reality. shy. edwards dusty r t. london. ok, let's keep attention on britain. families of those who died during the you case. first, coven locked on, have slums, an apology from boris johnson as an insult. that's after the prime minister admitted he attended a boozy dining street, but during the national lock dance, the opposition and even some senior tories helping, piling pressure on the p. m. calling on him to resign trains to resume and he said to the he was, i don't think he can continue as lead to the concert parking, playing minister, asking people to follow the rules and guidance on his government. i deleted it. when i went into that garden, just after 6 on the 25th of may, 2020, i believed implicitly that this was awoke. event on may 2020 was a tough month for britain. much of the country was paralyzed by the 1st national, locked done with indoor meetings between household strictly prohibited. we spoke to
4:28 pm
a man who struggled to arrange his father's funeral. i made the restrictions a common difficulty during those times. this is about rules and about who the host applies to, has become abundantly clear that the prime minister thinks that they don't apply to him at the same time. but i was at my father's funeral. he was taking part in a, bring your own views, part number 10 downing street. my dad's team will be allowed to invite up to 5 people at the geno. say that meant it was just myself and my siblings could attend . there was no physical contract. so we went lots of hug each other. even the vicar holding the family wasn't allowed to shake hands or anything like that. and as soon as the ceremony was over, we all had to go back, came again. they were author issuing fines for people meeting outside people will be buying money for meeting up people being harassed by the police. if they hung
4:29 pm
around and parks that too long and the ultimate question, half of the prime minister is, why does he believe that the rules that he helps create that he made didn't apply to him? or johnson stated, excuse sparked a wave of means online. even major companies like ryan or, or how pain posting, mocking images. that's not the 1st party gates scandal involving johnson. the end of last year, a pictures emerged online, allegedly showing him taking part in several social events at dining street during the 2020 locked many in parliament think there is now only one course of action. it is so ridiculous that is actually offensive to the press. you see now go to do the decent thing and reside how stupid does the prime minister think the british people are right now. he's making fools of every single mp exceeded him earlier. well that prime minister finally do the decent thing. i'm resign oral
4:30 pm
historian. peace be forced to show him the door. so for once kind of prime us or do the honorable thing and resign 17 a portion of the punch. got one. think that play medical should step down and eventually you can do, you know, as go resign play manager, he sorry, because he's being cool, there any most resolve in my judgement and all the evidence that's considering us in the face for the last few months. now, i think it's abundantly clear that bars johnson doesn't have an ounce of self decency in him. leading by example isn't really key element of thought leadership and his claire. the not only does bars chunks and not have thought more leadership at the moment, but there's no pathway for him to get back. and that's why, for as long as he remains prime minister, i think we're going to stay in a state of.
