and literally, people are getting up in the morning and sneezing and attributing it to our brianna syndrome. i mean, because it's so bad. ah, ah, president biden plans to position u. s. troops in eastern europe and to show a force against russia, despite nato's chief meeting best, no certainty about whether moscow would invade ukraine. meanwhile, germany swims against the nato tide by with this thing, sending on to you, craig, move this, got the back and get the german public. according to recent polls, candidates prime minister grounds the huge truck convoy opposing the vaccine mandate as extreme it. despite the growing dr. as movement of thousands now spreading through the capital also with against the fundamental human rights of

bodily autonomy. a group of british national help serviced off through the government as tens of thousands could potentially faced the stock if they don't get the type of jobs by next week. we get the latest from one of the doctors behind with that very well. welcome to my team here in moscow. this is alta international with the latest world news. it's great to have the company. now, president biden has pledged to send more us troops to nato countries in eastern europe in the near future. early this week, the pentagon had already put 8500 troops on stands by 4 possible deployments. although at the same time, nato is back tracking on his month long claims that russia is about to invade its neighbor ukraine alliance chief in stoughton. but now admits there's no certainty about any invasion. after all is correct and we are not planning to deploy nate to

combat troops to ukraine, as long as russia does not. once again, decide to use military force uncertainty while there's no certainty about the the russian plants or maybe they have not made any final decision. for months, the usual suspects in the west have spirited out the same old hysteria, western mainstream media, quite literally do their own picture of reality with maps of an imaginary invasion from stultz and burke himself to west than officials. and it's media who constantly shrieked. an invasion was just around the corner conveniently, postponing their predictions even when proved wrong. us intelligence officials say russia could invade ukraine as soon as january, and that's because of russian troops that are massed on ukraine's borders were now to see russia could, at any point, want an attack and ukraine. but now even the ukrainian president has brushed it off as just panic. or do we have tanks in the streets?

you know that there is a feeling that if you're not here, if you're in england, germany, france, lithuania, there is a feeling from the media that we are to war. troops are walking on the roads, mobilizing this is not true. we don't need this panic. but hang on, doesn't this all sound a bit like what russia had been saying all along? yes. with alicia with risk. if you go through it depends on the russian federation, then there will be no war. we don't want any wars, but we will also not allow our interest to be rudely trampled on and ignored. but it seems like even all that doesn't stop the wheels at that, it bad sanctions machine rolling. the west prepares, crippling sanctions and anticipation of that same elusive rush and aggression. at this very moment, we have been very clear that if russia further invades ukraine, the united states is looking at a range of options with allies and partners to deliver severe costs to the rush economy, assessing potential spill overs,

and exploring ways to reduce those spill overs is good governance and standard practice. but if anything, the ukraine crisis has taught us one thing, some western politicians who claim to preferred diplomacy and dialogue, are reluctant to abandon their own wills and step into a reality without russian aggression. we always accuse russia to, to be the aggressor, even if it was no, were reality of the wrong. that's for that's, that's was situation. know if russia, oh, will not be considered as an adversary of need to be no joke, no object you for the 2. and the united states will lose its super rossi in europe on the object if she is to fragment europe on to torpedo any reset between western europeans on russia. in order to prevent multiple r richie to remote ukraine,

confirmed on friday that is received another batch of military aid from washington . 81 tons of ammunition were delivered in one of dozens of ad transfers plans and the j biden's. $200000000.00 support package. but not all nato members are united and weaponized in ukraine. germany is refusing to send arms and has ruled out evacuating the embassy. they're saying the move would only add to the tensions with more from berlin. his artist, peter oliver. tough time see european diplomacy here in berlin. many of the decisions made by chancellor sholtes as government haven't been running on the same lines as friends in partners in london and to the german foreign minister is also not convinced there's an immediate sign of ukraine joining the nato alliance. everyone knows that this is not the agenda at the moment, including russia. the people of ukraine want to live in peace and security. many have been separated from their families for years due to the conflict in the da

boss. that's what the matter is about, not even attempting to nato. another area where germany isn't following the lead of the u. k. in us is when it comes to the evacuation of stuff from embassies in kiev . berlin says it would just further destabilize the situation on the ground in ukraine. of course, we continuously check the security situation in different places around the world, including in ukraine. like how are you partners? we have currently decided not to reduce the embassy stuff in case germany has come under a lot of pressure over its refusal to send weapons to ukraine. in fact, it's with some sections of the media into a frenzy, with some headlines, even questioning whether berlin is actually a friend of the us. all i have of with concern the situation in ukraine and the reactions of our neighbors from germany in the face of the threat from russia. it's immoral and hypocritical. it's driving a division line between west and east in europe. foreign minister, bear bulky, used a to bait in the bomb the stag. to further cement the government's commitment to

the policy seminal demand in that weapons be delivered urgently in difficult situations. you have to repeatedly discuss your actions self. critically. we have to strengthen ukraine economical and financially, cuz in the 21st century, don't a sudden with canons, friends and allies, clearly not happy with berlin's decision. the german people seem to be ok with it. according to polling, nearly 60 percent of the germans are quite happy with the decision not to send weapons to ukraine. senior figures within the largest party and the ruling coalition are keen to stress germany's role in attempt to find a diplomatic solution to the current crisis. now committed open wars looming right now in the middle of europe. it's about doing everything we can to prevent a military escalation of the situation. and of course, we do not deliver weapons to ukraine and about keeping the peace, lasting peace order in europe would not work with russia, but only with russia. it's korea, berlin believes the diplomatic doors defining solution remain open. however,

it's equally clear that germany feels that should they supply weapons to ukraine, their ability to keep those doors open would be impaired. peter all over all t, berlin. and this unity among nato members doesn't end with weapon supplies. c, ukraine as hungary house refuse to host additional nato forces. a country's defense minister on the russian troop movement inside its own board of doesn't necessarily mean moscow wants to attack ukraine earlier. they will also report bulgaria wouldn't welcome more us soldiers with officials admitting that message could be coming from bulgaria, military and croatia said it would withdraw its nathan military personnel from eastern europe. should there be a conflict between russia and ukraine and p. t. i re mariani escaping about europe . caving into washington on anti russian rhetoric. 0 for your most. it's very w. stevie. this is real hysteria. i get the feeling that the russian army could be

in paris any day if everything continues like this. what do you think are the real reasons? i think some people just need to regain prestige. is 1st the u. s. as we know they left afghanistan in the most miserable way. second, nato, which needs to justify its existence. i will also mention ukrainian president zalinski who has had an extremely difficult situation inside the country. basically, all these people need the pressure to build up. at the same time, i noticed that almost all the media repeat the same information over and over again . it was, i forget that almost all of this information secret satellite imagery comes to us from one source. the us, of course, the united states is our best ally. but let's remember that we have to stabilize the entire middle east because this very ally explained to us that there are weapons of mass destruction. there. it is very often necessary to state that the european union has no real foreign policy. and as you know today, the position of the e u on this issue is in line with the position of poland, romania, the baltic states. and they're very aggressive rhetoric towards russia. but other

than that, the e. u. as a diplomatic dwarf, real canadian prime minister just in 2 days waded into the vast truckers freedom convoy, dismissing protest is against vaccine mandates as unacceptable despite their numbers soaring as a huge trunk sound. moving to block the capitals case straits. thousands of drivers are furious that needing coven jumps to bring in us food. which canada's heavily reliance on. they were on the restrictions that couldn't come as it was time with food import costs up in astonishing 25 percent. this month alone and price inflation at a 30 year high. yet, ministers claim the demonstrators are just the extremists, the small fringe minority of people who are on their way to ottawa, who are holding unacceptable views that they are expressing do not represent the views of canadians who have been there for each other. we've already seen people who are equating vaccine mandates to ushering in

a new era of nazi germany. frankly, there's just too much from the leaders of this convoy which is not about freedom and certainly not about truckers. we have already seen some expressions which fall very much into the category of extremism. yet canadians are coming out in droves, waiving national flags to so they're backing full. the rallies. a convoy facebook page is now now has more than a 3rd of a 1000000 members and they've got almost $8000000.00 in donations. talk politicians now also peeling away from the mainstream attacks on the protest isn't coming out full. the drive is to be heard, truckers are our neighbors, our family, and most importantly, there are fellow canadians. i support their right to be heard and i call on justin trudeau to meet with these hard working canadians to hear their concerns. we spoke to colleen creek, i have joined friends, driving with the convoy. he say though, different kinds of ordinary people have gone to extraordinary lengths to show their support. every area of the country that we drove by had people didn't matter. the

temperature, sometimes slow, is minus 30 degrees, standing on the edges of the road, waving flags holding signs. they are upset that they're losing their freedoms. through these mandy, i need to be very, very clear. it's not about the vaccine itself, it's about the mandate. and the freedom to choose whether or not we have to take them. and that is what the ordinary hardworking canadians are here for. they want to, they want their freedoms restored with less than a week to go before doctors potentially phase being fired in england for not having coven jobs, national health service staff, or taking the matter to court around 80000 work is still all vaccinated ahead of the deadline to get the 1st job, but lawyers claim the governments due to sac staff,

goes against fundamental freedoms. if people have to give away their bodily autonomy, there is a question of whether they remain free. it is causing an unacceptable level of stress and uncertainty for them and for the health service and the public and a chest cove. it guidelines in england say employees must have had their 1st vaccine dose by february. the 3rd on the max native staff face the sac, if they can't be re deployed to a position that requires no interaction with patients. the governments continuing to stand by the ruling despite rolling back most of its covert restrictions. and it has staff warned the vaccine mandate is the final straw in a pandemic, which they claim has been marked by chronic under funding and under staffing health chief se, any stockings would further impacts in already depleted workforce talk to us about malik, who signed the declaration opposing monetary vaccinations believes forcing jobs on people could be a violation of medical ethics. the concept of mandatory vaccination is really

knocking down the cornerstone of medical antics that we've enjoyed for centuries. orderly tanami, freedom of choice, tremendous the most stress i'm just getting inundated messages from health care workers from the whole spectrum of doctors, nurses, audiologist, fearing for their livelihoods and their careers because they're being made to, you know, force to have the job or choose, you know, being sacked is frankly ridiculous. i feel the wind is behind or sales, and i think, you know, we're going to turn this around. i think the public can see through the nonsense the rise of the unvaccinated making plenty of headlines on the other side of the english channel too. after the paris hospitals, chief questioned whether they should continue to get free medical treatments or in the law when free inefficient drugs are available, should people be able to renounce vaccine without consequences. while we struggle

to take care of other patients. the hospitals chief said he'd raised this question because he didn't want health care spending to explode one day due to what he called irresponsible behavior. with discussion on this raging right now, we got the thoughts of some people in the french capital. i am completely concerned since i have my 2 grown up children and young adults who are not vaccinated. i'm for free choice for all and for us to continue to care for everyone with the same conditions for all that's the given france and we can give it up like that. it chokes me. i've been working for 40 years to have been contributing for 40 years. imagine if i were not vaccinated. i still want to be treated like everyone else. that's the hippocratic oath. treat everyone as well. he's kind of right. the vaccine is free. you don't pay. so it's normal to get vaccinated, it's for you and for others. and in addition, you take the place of someone else, an intensive care looking after cove at patients who end up in intensive care costs

around 3000 euros a day in france with stays on the ward, averaging a week to 10 days. mean, while a controversial new vaccine pass is coming to force in france, meaning that everyone over 16 years old will have to be jobs to access different public spaces, like restaurants and into city transport. to get a better understanding of the issues involved. we spoke to sociology, professor robert girl and communicable communicable diseases expert, dr. barrett, pan katya. we just must not make a distinction between immunized and not immunized. they're all citizens and we treat them as equal citizens. we persuade, inform, educate, advise the people who have not been immunized and help them to make that voluntary decision to get him. you know, just even if 80 percent of the population is fully immunized, that is 80 percent are not 100 percent immune. it is important to invest in

prevention. prevention is cheap. prevention is easier. prevention is better. wow. one of the things that we need to worry about are the inequalities that have been embedded in coded since the beginning people long had to pay to get access to the vaccine. whether that be driving a far distance, taking time away from work or friends and family. so there are lots of costs that have been hidden that we really have under discussed. now we're moving into another realm where people, for reasons that may be illogical, maybe related to their health, maybe related to issues of faith or religion are going to be taxed for those decisions. and so i think that as our society start to move toward a sense of quote unquote normal seat, i think we should be looking also at the behavior of the people who are vaccinated are the rest of us behaving properly in order to protect one another. until i had this thought the day falling on death is the man tossed by the british government

to tackle is lamb. a phobia in the country claims, no one and power is listening to a word. he's got to say we, although when he tells us why there's a problem ahead of the great ah, join me every thursday on the alex simon, sure. i'll be speaking to guess in the world of politics, sport, business. i'm show business. i'll see you then. mm. i just finance also i was gonna get a little about my laundry 1st to 3 different. oh, good starting. well, we have our 3 bags all set up here. maybe something in europe, something in america or something overseas in a

series, money laundry. okay. let's see how we do. well, we've got a nice laundry watch for stacy. oh, beautiful jewelry. and how about ha ha luxury auto bill? again for mag, you know what? money order is highly regal. copier crook? i with welcome back. and the mom appointed by the u. k government as a key advisor to tackle islam of phobia claims he hasn't received any meaningful engagement from ministers in years carry a seam, was a commissions to work on an anti muslim discrimination project in 2019 versus the work never really began and his letters have gone unanswered,

he told doughty about his main concerns. i was appointed in 2019, but sadly, no work has taken place since 2019 because it hasn't been potentially political will behind defining it on to how prevent for now for big incidence and commons happening in our society. the government has not shown any form of engagement. the government has not engaged me or responded to my correspondence. and so this, this lack of engagement is deeply disappointing. and from the muslim communities perspective, i think that the level of frustration that you know, that they're not being taken seriously because of by not engaging with me

regarding the defining number for the government is shipping, lack of willingness to perhaps have a definition in our country also, people can read into this that the government is not as interested in tackling to some of you as people would quite hardly like them to do so these latest claims come to stays after prime minister barak johnson was accused of failing to probe allegations of islam of phobia within his governments, the round was exacerbated by accusations from the former transport minister, new strength. connie claims that she was demoted because her quote, muslim ness raised concerns and the ruling conservative party. the p. m. for the government takes the claims seriously and does not tolerate any kind of discrimination. as long as phobia has been a big problem in, in england and wales in recent years, according to a home office report, almost half of overcrowded religious hate crime offences last year were against

muslims. that was around $2700.00 cases. that makes muslims, by far the highest targeted of all religious groups carry a seam, thinks the 1st step to prevents bigotry on this lena phobia is to define it. we need to come up with the definition that is acceptable to the majority of the people in this country. because without the acquisition, it's really hard to distinguish between what is in prejudice. and what is the people in having it definition of will be it will help us to define where the red line boundaries are. you know what is acceptable and what is unacceptable behavior or comments? because at the moment, i will remark about most in without being being cold out without any

fear that this is something that should be unacceptable in our society. more than a dozen aid organizations, a warning you back to sanctions on the west african country of molly, have the potential to trigger the worst inequality crisis. in decades, the restrictions were imposed off of the military governments that postponed plans . elections. the critics claimed as suffocating the country reporting next page, solid debowski. the situation is it di as molly battles with the worst bound to food insecurity that it suffered in a decade. sanctions way hard restrictions that include a trade embargo and financial aid being suspended were initially brought in by the economic community of west african states. but they are now being supported by you . and that is a step too far from more than a dozen aid organizations. many hundreds of thousands of persons displaced

internally within money which in full narrow exemptions, as is the case of the moment. geron goods, we have a lot of people and needed to run a very high, several 1000000 a we had, you know, a weakening as a result of sanctions direct with dr. multiple down into digital situation. the sanctions have also sparked protests in the malia and capitol hill. so why have such punitive measures been imposed on one of the woods poorest countries? in 2021. molly was taken over by a military coup, which was led by the vice president to see mccoy, who then installed himself as being the main man. and initially the plan was to hold elections within the year. however, that pledge has since been rescinded. however,

molly's recent history has been even more tangled in a military web with thousands of soldiers from european countries, mainly from here in france on the ground since 2013. ah mm. ah. paris has also blamed the worsening relations with bunco on the arrival of russian military contract, a wagner. however, that is something that's being denied by the molly and authorities who say that only russian trainers are on the ground to strengthen the operational capacity in the exact same way as european trainers have been there for several years. annex

this which is also got the e u in a twist where the wagner is or isn't present in molly, it certainly is persona non grata within the block. the activities of this group reflect russian hybrid warfare. they represent a threat and create instability in a number of countries around the world. all of this begs the question, is molly being partially sanctioned? because it has asked for help from russia. it is clear that almost 10 years of intervention by the europeans hasn't brought peace and security to the country and is morally, looks elsewhere for assistance. the e. u has hardened it stumps, pushing the country into more food insecurity and deepens, foolish, emergent crises are also besieged by our ministers in the population cannot leave the area. we also have issues of funding this you margin. a crisis in my

view has not been funded to, according to, to, to the needs the last year and the stairs. not looking good as well. the reality is that sanctions will impact the poorest the most. and it is the vulnerable in molly society that will really pay the price challenge even sky or t, paris. i for keeping his company on ne, so this saturday that's so for me for today. but kevin, i will be with you in about 30 minutes with ah

so 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. the only personally i'm getting to resist, i don't see how that strategy will be successfully, very difficult time. time to sit down and talk ah

ah nice guys are this is the guys a report. the i m f is correcting their, i'm a nervous breakdown, a very public nervous breakdown as they should. things are not going their way. stacey el salvador is winning and you can tell they are winning based on this tweet here from earlier this week. breaking i am of urges el salvador to remove big point as a legal tender and to this tweet responded najia. but kelly, the master of internet, told them with this tweet. max, as you see, he is alexander the great of social media. the man does not lose you come at the king. best not miss is what they are. he's basically saying to the i, m f. so max, you know, the point is what the i m f is doing is they're really against the volcano bond in particular. they do not want to see independence. they do not want to see

sovereignty and any other, any nation on earth that they must all cow and bend the knee to the eye, mouth, and their bureaucrats who think they know better than everybody else, including the most popular elected leader out there in the universe at the moment, right, well, salvatore, in countries around the world are begging the i, m f to remove the out money from their program. theat money is the single greatest instrument of slavery, impoverishment, and terrorism, money laundering, and crime that the history of the world is ever know. the i, a map is a chief proponent of this. they aid in a bed financial terrace, as i would say for decades now, they've met there, come up, and this is the greatest moment for freedom ever against money. el salvador is leading. the charge president kelly is leading the charge the i m f is.
