5:03 pm
blanche pretend you're going an official, as i've also left out of his remarks, the countries foreign ministry, the morning. the government officially reject what was said, insisting such was undermined, declining sovereignty, and encourage vladimir putin to attack he of foreign minister also condemned the comments as inappropriate and the current security crisis. while the navy chief, though is now calling his statements a mistake, while germany's defense ministry has rushed to assure his, was in no way reflect this official position from you is still part of the crane. a treadmill consistently of course, pointed out that the peninsula voted overwhelmingly and referendum to reunify. with russia. we discussed the situation with maximilian cry and any p for may alternative for germany party atmosphere within the parliament. and then every one wants to have to even tougher sanctions against russia at least readily
5:04 pm
and prepare for war. daniel had a real soldier and he said, this nonsense and of course they are very angry on him because he is making clear every one is still thinking on his own that you are a russian man. wal longer ring has nothing to do with real security threat just mad. and if you go politics demonstrations against cobra restriction on several rabbits in major cities across europe this weekend. the french outraged for requirements for everyone i was 16 to. so proof over not collation to ends. public places. one of written people want the recent removal of pandemic roles to be extended to national health stuff shot it was actually in london and shot do my skin paris on the ground for us possession that just passed me is one of several that are taking place across the city to day,
5:05 pm
as well as many others taking place across france. there is a mixture of issues here, but one of the big issues is that vaccine, passports is going to come into play. from monday, anybody age 16 rover will have to be fully vaccinated or have recovered from coverage within the last 6 months to be able to access very basic things like going into restaurants or balls even now being able to go and trains between different regions. now the protestors i've spoken to said that, you know, this is stripping away their rights as citizens and they're not the only ones that are concerned about this is also m. p, 's and senators who all said that they are against this idea of vaccine mandate. and there of even been legal experts raising some particularly difficult questions . 5000000 unvaccinated citizens will become pariahs, even though there is no vaccination obligation, asking a person for their vaccination status to access certain activities as an anomaly.
5:06 pm
we are in the midst of a dystopian. this law is in essence, a concentrate of attacks on multiple freedoms and fundamental rights that protest had been dying down in france. so for the coven 19 restrictions, but they were reinvigorated just a few weeks ago when president mack on gave a highly controversial interview in that he said, and these are his words, not mine, that he wanted to the unvaccinated. and essentially said that they would known the citizens as they had refused a civic right to go and get the vaccine. not really has angered so many people here, the bus vox nancy that i was like the vaccine passed as a version of the german house vice id. i got that it's a returned to 1944 to the worst dictatorship. it's a does toby at the moment, these vaccine passes don't work, they infringe on our freedoms. micron has created a sanitary dictatorship, democracy, medical to new rescue, the joyful buckle. dawn of people aren't happy. we took to the streets for our
5:07 pm
freedom. every one is protesting in france to day, bobby, i am against mandatory vaccination. this is a question of freedom to work. will go outside for a coffee to a museum. well, i didn't, no one the little. we must respect fundamental freedoms, mandatory vaccination and the vaccine pos, trample on our freedom. it is very important to protest today and be here. the idea of this fact means now that with these new restrictions, people are going to be pushed into the going to get vaccinated or deciding config in the heels. and not the sense i got from protested, pay today is that that's what they want to do. and they will continue to refuse to have that job well, freedom day is very much upon us here in the united kingdom as all pretty good restrictions are to be lifted. and you think it would be a cause for some depression, but tens of thousands of people are capturing right here in central london. that's incredibly angry at the government and how they've handled it. didn't try upon
5:08 pm
demick. they say today, it's not the time to be fooled. by the government, so full sense of freedom and actually the control is still very much upon a disagree with with the mandate. it doesn't, it doesn't make sense to me. i haven't been coming to the process of just walking, but it's getting so close to me losing my job. yeah, and i agree that we should have that funded mental choice to decide what we put in all stuff. not just the front my work, but also toward the receptionist. it will be so as we do the scene monday, they're really bad thing for many people here in the united kingdom. they're also incredibly angry at the fact that children are now even being a co us into getting jobs and arguably, they say it's my body. my choice is not really, i should be the crux of all government policy, not today's protest is in conjunction and connection with various approaches across europe. and ultimately what my role calling for is mass non compliant. it all comes
5:09 pm
here in the united kingdom as the default nation to somewhat take more cautious approach to how they deal with these proven restrictions. and whether or not they should be lifted just yet. in fact, the world's prime minister. he believes the force johnson is already doing this to distract, on and western and everything that is happening in westminster at the moment is seen entirely through the lens of how can we get something else to be reported other than the difficulties of the prime minister has created for himself, and that's what i believe lies behind the announcements that we've seen this week. of course, that law takes the referring to the party, gave john to those who are opted through westminster in recent months. all those allocations of number 10 downing street coffee is as far as johnson is very much himself in royalty, and they say it's time for john to go. however, many people here in the united kingdom proven relate to say,
5:10 pm
bar is time to go. because of course, many people say it's too soon, and this one of these private restrictions is to, to, to have this freedom day, especially as now. and recent news, we're hearing of this sub variance of the various being detected by the u. k. how security agency saying it's a barriers on the investigation, and as we know, the number of private table was still reaching over a 100000 every single day. we know it's much more transmissible around us, even a re infection risk as well. however, many protests here today, so the other com variance is nothing more than just the common flu and should really be a reason to disrupt freedom. in h m m as a pledge to send more lethal weapons to ukraine with washington confirming plans to send military helicopters to k of at the same time they've told russia to pull back its own troops on the border with its neighbour. i will note that the united states
5:11 pm
has delivered more security assistance to ukraine in the last year than any point in history. these deliveries are ongoing, including today there's more deliveries coming. we recently notified congress of our intent to deliver am 17 helicopters. it seems all the stops have been pulled at this point from the, from the side of nathan lethal weapons are flooding into ukraine at, at record speed when record amounts. ukraine has confirmed that it has received the latest shipment of american lethal arms amounted to 100 tons of 100 tons of lethal arms in just the length of shipment. estonia, latvia, lithuania have also voiced their desire to supply. perhaps i have begun to supply you credit with the guided missiles, javelin guided missiles that they have in turn received from the united states, as well as stinger shoulder, launched anti air missiles, estonia, latvia and lithuania,
5:12 pm
and the allies of working together expeditiously to hand over security assistance to ukraine, this 8 will further enhance ukraine's capability to defend its territory and population in case of possible russian aggression. this is of course, in addition to other suppliers, the ukraine has received an over recent weeks including this week with more than 2000 guided missiles supplied by the united kingdom alone, var sky bridge, endless military cargo flights. you have the check republic say that it allows supplies, again, vast quantities of 152 millimeter artillery shells which, which have caused a lot of destruction in east the new cray. that poland with drones and armored vehicles in addition to helicopters, to patrol craft supplied by other countries. nevertheless, there, there has been some disparity. this unity among native states. with regards to this,
5:13 pm
to this on supply route that has been open to ukraine flood. i would even say some nations have stayed out of it more or less, including germany. estonia has sorta transferred german artillery systems to ukraine, and germany has refused to sanction this move. the federal government has had a clear stance regarding arms exports in recent years. we have not supported the export of lethal weapons from germany. germany has been on the huge pressure from certain nato member states should occur, which include the united states, great britain, certain about the country's eastern european countries to open up and send lethal arms to ukraine as well. but germany has so far stayed there. as i said, stayed out of it, the german chancellor, olaf schultz has also been invited to the united states by, by biden, reportedly he refused saying that he has other responsibilities to attend to. but
5:14 pm
the, the, the, this is stand off continues at this point. as you mentioned, at the united states as cauldron, russia to remove its troops from its own soil near you crate, said to move them out where in russia. at the same time, nato troops are arriving in again record her quantities to ukraine, which russia has always seen as a, as a security concern. there has also been an opinion in russia that these build up is, is justified that more securities needed on the border with, with ukraine, given that this again, vast quantity of lethal arms are being sent to you create and maimed bolden. the regime in key of said to, to vap, seek a military solution for the crisis in, in east and ukraine. so was certainly no end to the stand off inside. ah,
5:15 pm
it won't help organizations recommending countries now lift to co related travel restrictions after the meeting. the rules of fail to limit the spirit of the virus. it was, comes this recall current of ours infection rights being reported with the on the trans strain. the failure of travel restrictions to limit the international spread of only crone demonstrates the ineffectiveness of such measures. over time, the committee identified the following actions as critical for all countries lift or ease international traffic bounds as they contribute to the economic and social stress experienced by st. potties or some nation that notably in europe are already easing their rules. the u. k. government is remove, uncovered passports, and mandatory phase colorings in public places. the republic has abandoned the mandatory inoculation scheme for those i was 60 and workers in certain sectors and suite and we'll drop requirements for proof of a negative cobra test for foreign travelers. we discuss the parent changes in the global approach to the pandemic with all guess. when you manage any sort of ad room
5:16 pm
viruses, vaccines are just one of many tools. so in an ideal world, you know, you have well ventilated work, places you know, well and i see it schools the british government of talked in policy terms about, well ventilated spaces for last year, if not longer and therefore you do get this lack of trust because on the public don't trust government because on the one on the saying we are trying to protect you know, the hand, we're not offering them. so it seems odd therefore, to only be talking about the vaccine in terms of mandation and actually lower trust . the vaccine still guarantees that you will have a weaker attack of a covert and that you are less likely to contaminate others. it is not perfect that it's a defense. almost all people now who hospitalized in france, 90 percent of people hospitalized in front of people who not been vaccinated, but taking up hospital beds. and i see you beds and resources that mean that some
5:17 pm
other patients and phones cannot have operations. even great pathologies such as cancer because everything is taken up in hospitals or almost capacity. it is true to say from a nature study, we noticed very clearly that those who have been vaccinated within 3 months have antibody levels which are low and actually are not protected against spreading the virus. so unless everyone repeatedly gets the vaccine every 3 months, we're not taking vaccine to stop spread and taking the vaccine doesn't stop spread, so not respects faxing policies are ineffective and do not work. so why they're being mandated, why the health system itself will be sure to penalize whatever is the reasoning behind that it's not scientific, it's not based on the evidence and it's proved to be highly ineffective measure, which is in fact a lot. you can make people react against vaccination president nicole hope to be reelected in 80 days time. and he knows perfectly well that you will have the support of the surety you have almost 90 percent support with mandatory vaccination
5:18 pm
vaccine. paul, so i haven't got sort of such high figures every french child before going to primary school to kindergarten has 11 mandatory vaccines. again, tv against polio, against a tyria, data nurse, et cetera. and it's, it's, it's an, it's passed into, into sort of french uses. in the 1st instance, it was an outlandish claim to say that this was like, sloop, it was not true. it's all. and in fact, we could criticize our governments of being lacks, in the public health measures. now that you know that the impact of it in the well developed countries, how it involves vaccination program, where people who wanted vaccination of taken ups is very different. and i do feel it is time know to relax restrictions a nation because the only people i see benefiting from vaccine mandates, all these pharmaceutical companies, no one else is benefiting from. and i think we genuine the are in this together. we
5:19 pm
need to make sure that we share the vaccine patients and how those countries to build the infrastructure and get back to roll out as a global solution. a disturbing, an unprecedented setback for international space corporation. i think us refuses a visa, or rushing cause one or for ice by sas training will get reaction from the russian stages. she found a fellow cosmo along with other stories. she'll bring ah, what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy, even foundation, let it be an arms race is often very dramatic development only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successfully, very critical time. time to sit down and talk
5:20 pm
to them as inflation increases, the stories, their rhetoric, the explanations, the justifications will get more and more bizarre back because there's nothing in the, in the playbook for a mainstream media to explain a place because they've been told for 20 years now that there is no inflation, that there's only deflation, and the need to keep printing money to stop the of the possibility of, of, of a deflationary spiral. with welcome back. they international committees, new rules for transgender athletes have sparked controversy. medical experts on
5:21 pm
sports, she for saying may promote unfair competition in women's events. now the new regulations come into effect after the beijing winter olympics next month, and would not require transgender athletes to lower that of star, thrown levels to compete in women's events. international input communities also cooling all sports organizations to prevent gender based discrimination. according to one of the scientists behind the appeal to the io c, testosterone plays a crucial role in the performance of an athlete. i think what sport needs to do is have criteria on which they can base levels of markers like to start thrown to a certain level to allow performance. that is, i think, you know, in the views of those who wrote the framework, i be probably the only one to believe that to start strand does not play a role in performance. clearly, no one is saying that performance can be brought down to one hormone and clearly,
5:22 pm
you know, sporty performance is a multi factorial aspect. but clearly at the moment, we know that to stop does play a major role and has to be considered in the solution. clearly not as the only factor, but one of the primary factors, and probably the best one that we have at the moment. the new rules about transgender athletes come off the several high profile cases. use even waitlist. laurel hubbard became the 1st transgender female to the part in a lympics last year. and recently, american korea from lee at thomas dominated, has fought with record breaking performances despite undergoing hormone suppression therapy. now, according to the international olympic committee, the new rules will promote a fair and welcoming environment. yanis pitts, loudest warns they could undermine the credibility of competitive sport. i think what he's trying to do is focus on, on inclusion, being the primary factor being considered in human rights is vitally important. and
5:23 pm
none of us would, would dispute that. but in addition to the human rights component, we need to consider famous. they are false way, if you, par, archive, inclusion. then you won't have famous. 3 considerations. one has to have when integrated into and the athletes as inclusion as famous and safety. compet focusing only on inclusion is not the way for americans, refusal without explanation to grow the russian cosmonaut visa has been criticized as a shilling, an unprecedented setback for international space corporation and travel nicola, to show you all to spend 5 weeks at nasa space center in texas to familiarize himself with the american segment of the international space station. without the exercises, he won't be able to fly to the i s s forcing a complete change in his training. the head of the russian space agency points out washington's unexpected move puts the very work of the i s s at risk. it never
5:24 pm
occurred to us to refuse a visa to any us astronaut who was heading to star city to prepare for a space flight. what the us authorities have done with our cosmic ops entry visa is a dangerous precedent for cooperation on the international space station statement . b, u. s. m. a c. moscow tried to maintain a positive tone, saying they do their best to receive ease is and appreciate ourselves, cooperation. south, i refuse to provide a reason for the rejection and experience fresh and cosmo hold under. everybody's in goal told or to with this move, international or assess crews can no longer function as a team that the bill for her. this is certainly a wrong decision on the parts of our foreign colleagues. this will lead to training scheduled disruption. if an astro does not undergo training on our partners facility, many questions arise about how to carry out the next expedition or how it will be possible to act in an emergency situation successfully. the international crew is
5:25 pm
a single team on board. the station russian and foreign crew members cannot train all the procedures separately. the mystery surrounding a death of sex offender and financier jeffrey epstein has taken a new turn r t c. u. s. federal document showing the report of his 1st suicide attempts was heavily rejected with his own account of the incident, entirely blanked out with more details. his danny armstrong, the life and death of jeffrey epstein, billionaire and prolific peter file as a subject mired in mystery and manipulation. the official account of his apparent suicide while held in a notorious new york lock or on charges of child sex trafficking, will seemingly be forever murky with regard to his adjustment to a correctional setting. mr. epstein received one incident report, one and federal bureau present custody for self mutilation. on july the 23rd, 2019. as of august, the 15th 2019, the incident report has been expunged,
5:26 pm
though it is in clear why it has been expunged, and whether mr. epstein knew this. so what exactly happened on july 23rd? a patchy paper trail provides more questions than answers, for instance, a doctor's report, officially logged and attempted suicide by asphyxiation. just hours after epstein was found semi conscious on his cell floor. however, epstein's version of events is completely redacted from any records. what's more, the report was amended exactly one week later to include the cause of the but suicide as self mutilation. a direct contradiction of the initial report which explicitly states no instances of self harm found epstein for his troubles was charged with violating prison rules and placed on suicide watch. if only for one day. that's the use pending a code to, to 8 tattooing or self mutilation. and i spoke with who indicates that most likely he will be found competent because he is not mentally ill pending
5:27 pm
a disciplinary process which didn't call a single witness. not even epstein cellmate, the disgrace financier was banged up in solitary confinement and subjected to several psychological assessments. the general consensus was one of a picture of optimism who denied any suicidal thoughts at all. that's in stark contrast to later prism reports painting epstein as a solemn prisoner with a poor attitude intent on taking his own life confused. well, you'd be forgiven. even the judge overseeing epstein's case demanded answers. one open question among others, is whether the investigations reference in your letter will include the incident at the metropolitan correctional center involving mr. epstein on or about july, the 23rd, 2019 to my knowledge. it has never been definitely explained what the federal bureau of prisons concluded about the incident. an internal report concluded that the self mutilation charge was warranted book at theme died before an executive
5:28 pm
decision could be made. so in the absence of any inquiry into july 25th, aside from medical expertise detailing epstein's high spirits. the question to the american justice system. is this, why was the report dotted and will concrete answers that have as yet proved elusive ever be on cove? it people are going to need answers. i think there are things that a lot of the public wants answers to. but because from the very beginning, the epstein the death and, and some of the questions, the loop holes, you know, what happened with these guards? what happened with the cameras? you know, so much of this cover up so much of this, it's such an obvious spinning such an obvious narrative here. the more that we're going to keep trying to figure out, figure it out on our own. and that's just going to fuel more and more, you know, ideas about what happened and fuel distress, more distress in our u. s. civilian, legal or justice institutions,
5:29 pm
none of that trust is ever going to be repaired without any answers. that's it. from a theme on myself, i'm good night going on the ground telling you i just a few moments time you can use it's the arctic silence show on the disco. be in the hot seat throughout the night to guide you through the latest global news headline . stay with us here in austin slash ah, join me every thursday on the alex salmon show and i'll be speaking to guess of the world politics sport business. i'm sure business. i'll see you then. mm. oh driven by dreamer shapes bankers are those with
