one minute post left moscow time. hi, the welcome to us. international is world news at 11 with me. kevin, 1st thing with the canadian capital still in the grip of mass cobit vaccine mandate protest is our top story again. tonight, the provinces of alberta and saskatchewan appeared to have relented, announcing an end to their proof of vaccination policies, but ought to a police on the lesser instead plumping down, brutally arresting even in 78 year old. great grandfather. not he humped his car horn and supported the demonstrators leaving it with cuts and heavy bruising. or what are you doing? what do you do when you i day, oh, that's a so i've got it all on video. i mean, i mean, yes, you did. i thought you were running late
3:02 pm
tonight, katie prime ministers accused vaccine monday. protest isn't trying to derail the country's economy and democracy going so far as to label them as a small group shouting and waving swastikas. this is a story of a country, the cartoonist pandemic, by being united and a few people shouting and waving swastikas does not define who canadian or to the government of canada. and to mister trudeau, your plan for this pandemic has been dismal. you need to come back and talk to these people. they're not scary people. there's a saying that i'm sure you're familiar with and that's lead, follow, or get out of the way. and mr shadow, you've proven that you're not a leader. is sort of now of nearly 80 criminal cases in connection with the
3:03 pm
demonstrations protest to say the federal government's response to the movement is only added few to the fire. i've been vaccinated my whole life. so i wasn't scared of the vaccine. what, what made me want to come here was when i saw a prime minister and get up and call these people racist. like i said, i'm a truck mechanic by trade. i've been working with these guys for 20 years. and i've never once met people that he would call racist in the trucking trade. when they prose or economy, they didn't raise any loans. there was no legislature that caused them to raise any of our loans. and they didn't lower taxes respectively. so people were losing their homes, they're losing their business, they have no income, and they're being extra storage to get the bath seen in order to just stay employed . so they don't lose their houses. the mass don't make sense, no laws that they've come up with their little rules and mandates. makes sense. their mandates have been way out of control and and we need to go back to freedom. we need to go back to the why, you know, there is music. there were bouncy, gas,
3:04 pm
older families, rain children. well that's really calm down. it's so much wider atmosphere, not necessarily here, but in other parts of the city is really roger up there in horseman measures they issued more get they told vehicles they're basically trying to cut off the fuel supplies to the truckers and also find have increase. so this is all part of the effort, the basically shut this process down. however, the police chief here in the city said, i need an additional $1800.00 officers to do so. they called on the federal government to help the government official. but this is an insurrection, mostly from what we saw and talking to protesters is very people over the weekend. but there is some volatility now that brings requiring down yesterday, we are talking to some of the testers and supporters. residents of the area walking by calling them to go home, making much of your residence while that class action lawsuit, the judge granted a temporary injunction and try to shut this boy down. but at this point in the
3:05 pm
middle of the protest, not only here but elsewhere, continues, and really a lot of support coming in internationally as well. the federal, the federal government get lady intentional, wanted to stop. now the question is, how much longer will this go on and will it really be a battle of political will? it is for john how the reporting, mammals, doesn't canadian politicians and campaign groups, calling on the government to negotiate with the protest as they publish an open letter, which also appeals to the demonstrated to refrain from violence or harming local businesses. one of the signatories is a leading lawyer she spoke to me. she believes there's no legal basis for detaining peaceful protested, or people provided me with supplies. i can't speak for ministers intentions, but there hasn't been any sign that he's willing to negotiate. and we're hopeful that going forward when he sees that the protesters are not going to leave without some sort of negotiation. there has been feature of fuel in which the truckers need to keep warm as you know in canada right now. in the middle of the winter time. the
3:06 pm
temperatures are minus 20 degrees celsius overnight and they need that fuel to keep warm to their sleeping inside of their trucks. and of course there's, there's no legal basis to arrest anyone for giving truckers fuel. i mean, if there's a charge of mischief, mischief relates to criminal insurance, and the protesters are not engaging in criminal activity. they're engaging and people protest which is protected under the canadian charter of rights and freedoms . so the absolutely, the governmental overreach and you know, we have serious issues with these actions and hold up in court. the conflict protests against co vaccine mandates spreading beyond canada and new zealand trucks and vans of block street from the capital, wellington for a 2nd day threatening the parliament building where hundreds of people turned out to support the protest. the demand for the same as in canada to lift vaccine and mask mandate and similar rallies in france with the protest is gathering in nice to
3:07 pm
vendor anger about vaccine policy is required for entering restaurants and other public places. and a major demonstration inspired by the canadian freedom come boy, is that we think we expected in paris discovery we can on saturday, british prime minister boris johnson. meantime, as announced a plan to end sweeping, coven restrictions in the coming weeks there, including long isolation periods for anyone to test positive. the precise measures are expected to be announced by the end of this month, shot. it was dash, the reports. well, it might seem like light at the end of the tunnel, but certainly the feeling here as will believe it when we see it at the announcement today really wasn't expected at all. but it seems that the government's trying to show to the public that we're on the other side of the pandemic. i'm beginning to live with the virus. so at the end of the month, what we'll see is all restrictions to be acts, including isolating for positive cases of cov, it provided the current in charging trends in the data continue. it is my
3:08 pm
expectation that we will be able to end the last domestic restrictions, including the legal requirement. so calculate if you test positive a full month. oh, that announcement was then greeted by rolls across the chamber, many people in the tory party. i'm the labor party actually quite keen to see that these restrictions being acts on. it has certainly been welcomed amongst the public as well, but it will all depend on the data. of course, for us, johnson said, if we see this encouraging day to this trend continue, that is the day to things like, ah, hospitalizations, the death rate, the covert cases levels are but also new. there is, if all of that looks promising, then we'll go ahead with the lifting of the restrictions was going to be at the end of march has been pushed forward to the end of this month. but some people say it's absolutely far too soon as yet again, their nature is on its knees. people on the front line of really struggling to cope with the pressure is just to give you an idea and statistics. the n h has backlog.
3:09 pm
the care backlog. currently stands at 6000000 people. patients are waiting for operations. some cases of people waiting up to 12. 8 hours in emergency rooms across the united kingdom. so things are looking particularly good for the n a chest of drawers. johnson says he's hoping to hire more nurses to deal with this crisis. we have 6000000 people already on the waiting list. i'm afraid gotten that will go up and we need be recruiting the stock now. that's why we're recruiting 50000 bonuses or 11000 more this year than that. we're lucky to point. this is bigger. we've increased the starting salary for nurses my top on it in addition to the bathrooms and all the help that we give them. we value our nurses, we love our new chest, were paying for it. well, just as far as johnson was hoping to move away from the party gate scandal that engulfed westminster. well, it's resurfaced yet again today, a picture of 1st johnson himself emerged, or with an open bottle of bubbly,
3:10 pm
a half eaten packet of crests, and some of his members of staff with tensile all around them. that was at the christmas quiz, a party that happened on the 15th of december of 2020. now this one we've heard about before, but the metropolitan p says it's not going to investigate it. at the time though, you couldn't socialize, endorsed with our household, and the official guidance stated, you must not have a work, christmas lunch or party. so today's announcement may be another attempt to try to flex from what's going on in westminster with the party gates scandal. but the united kingdom is one of the 1st nations to announce that over sections will be lifted. essentially, the idea is that clover will be treated somewhat like the flu is treated now and where it's up to the individual to make a judgment, a responsible one. whether or not they should go into work, or indeed a party or the news in the midst of a 10 stand off with rush or ongoing. the u. s. as it says, no need for immediate sanctions against an old street to gas pipeline which links
3:11 pm
russia to germany, u. s. president biden at earlier through the shut down the project if russia were to invade ukraine. saskia taylor's got the latest tonight. no string to is now front and center in the ukraine crisis. because while both nato and t of now agree, but the imminent rush invasion they've been waiting for 4 months is unlikely to happen. the u. s. president disagrees and has decided to take the pipeline out for a final politicized right. there will be no longer a nor stream to we will bring it in. how will you, how will you do that? exactly. since the product and control of the product is worth in germany's control, we will, i promise you will be able to do for europe fake one can only hope that this incredibly detailed plan of biden's to stop a sovereign countries economic dealings with another sovereign country will be as
3:12 pm
thought out as his plan for the afghanistan with twirled, but white doesn't bite and want berlin is cooking dinner over russian gas. well, some accused president, putin, unlike bite, of course of using gas as a political weapon. what if he flicks the switch and hundreds of millions are hit by the great frees, like that time back in? oh, no, wait, never, president biden has made clear that nordstrom, too, is a bad deal to bad deal because it divides europe. it exposes ukraine and central europe to russian russian manipulation and because it goes against europe's own stated energy and security goals. so thought of a cation of the project is on hold. and moscow for its part thinks that brussels has failed to do the mass that the shooting for this is also senseless. for those who don't let the system work, because additional gas supply to the european markets would unquestionably lower the stock and spot price. okay, so biden's worried about poor europeans being at the kremlin. marcy makes much more
3:13 pm
sense to pay more for american liquefied natural gas. and i have the privilege of being a washington's marcy. but that's not the only concern. another big issue crane won't get a cut. now at the moment, keith gets more than a $1000000000.00 a year for allowing russia to pipe gas through it, nor string to would bypass ukraine and for some in brussels. that's unacceptable. these is until ones and the sanctions are unprecedented and have been coordinated and prepared with old partners. i would like to add that due to the close economic into defendants of all the partners involved, especially my country. yes, we are prepared to pay a high economic price when ukraine securities. let's take highness london and a high price. it will be if laska were time hates to any potential western sanctions. europe may have just 6 weeks of gas in the tank. and then what? because for washington's promises to find its allies alternative energy sources so
3:14 pm
far, nothing cattle said no can do, don't have the resources. u. s. companies that will max out any way we can't match the russian numbers. in fact, for all the threats and master pounds of biden, that's a real consensus. no rush and gas, no warm and cozy. europe a global mass. europe has no alternative to russian gas. you have to divert half of the liquefied natural gas that asia concerns that would mean massive energy shortages all across asia. this idea that we will fill the gap with liquefied natural gas. no, you can't. little one to than that. the german chancellor has been less keen on publicly promising to turn off the top, especially since he knows that even if they did decide to care about ukrainians, security and brave the cold by hitting the old way, you know, by woods. well, even then there's a bit of a catch, the ocean you be much of what you're doing with the guess. you won't developing nuclear energy. will see you going to do burn firewood, which you don't even have that,
3:15 pm
that the with side barriers to get firewood. and yes, nord string to dead in the water wouldn't be great for russia either. but then again, moscow didn't just sign a 30 year gas steel with beijing. and just the fun they decided to settle the bill in euro german geopolitical. alice rayner ross 1st believes that despite the u. s. pressure low nordstrom to simply too important for berlin to drop, germany understand said that it is too dependent on the north stream to project that we need the gas supplies for our domestic market in under circumstances. when the gas prices are soaring, many users of gas now are really, really under economic pressure through a soaring gas prices. and so i'm pretty confident that the german government will turn a to a full certification off the pipeline project and will not sacrifice this join
3:16 pm
to german russian gas supply project in the ongoing ukraine conflict. watching out internationals world news at 11 with me. kevin, i good evening, coming up, facebook and instagram could be pulled in europe as the social sites owner plays hardball with the regulations over red privacy. i would love to tell you more about that and the rest of the savings news. stay with me for can a back up, the brakes are mm hm. with with

touch 18 past the hour, the mysteries road in 1963 assassination of u. s. president john f. kennedy. we're going to talk about next is got mark here. i spoke to forensic pathologists, serial wax. now he concludes that the attack was actually a qu, conducted by deep state elements within the u. s. government, where it says analyzed the case for decades. now, he's really into this and feels really strongly about it and now completely denounce his the official investigation as a fast i gave a minority report, pointing out the deficiencies, the inadequacies, the absurdities of the warren commission report. and then not done anything about it because is too hard of a problem for the government to deal with. and especially now after all of these years to come forward and say that we screwed up, we messed up. we missed the most important story. and most important event in the history of modern day america,
3:19 pm
perhaps in the history of america. but administration recently released document showing links between the officially accused killer lee harvey oswald and the soviet k g b. the 19 sixty's investigation concluded in the end that oswald, who was killed in prison 2 days after the kennedy murder had committed the crime alone. he was denied it by the way. j f. k was fatally shot in november 1963 on a visit to dallas, texas, with the official investigation saying, oswald, a former us marine who temporary lived in the soviet union, had fired from a nearby building. the case of bug numerous conspiracy theories including government cover ups in his books, the j, f. k, assassination, the sect it worked, says in his view, it was a qu, data. the cia and other military people were very unhappy with kennedy and extremely concerned about where he was leaning america. in fact, number one was the warming up
3:20 pm
a little bit of the relationship with russia and getting rid of a very bitter hostile cold war. you can be sure that the officials in moscow, beijing and havana were contacted directly by our ambassadors and my direct phone calls to make sure that they had not been involved. and once i was asked or change, and that was quite quickly, you can be sure. and then they came to realize very, very fast that this was a domestic price. this was the assassination of president is not by foreign powers, but by people here in america. and it was then the overthrow, the government. it was cool to talk in america and they were not going to be able to handle that then. and they don't want to try to deal with that now.

that he missed will follow through on it threats, but don't expect the empire to turn it back on the money it makes from europe just yes, given much as profits in europe. i would rule out that the company will carry out that threat. at any rate, a withdrawal of the surveillance collapses from europe would be welcome, because it would finally get better competitors, a real chance, and the framework of the plan digital market sacked. we are fighting to endo dependence on corporations like matter by means of interoperability in order to give users a real choice. lawyers who have worked to expose the data breaches a facebook saying that they're always to fix this, but it requires guarantees that european citizens info isn't ending up in the hands of us intelligence agencies. we wonder why they do not work on a stable solution that ensures that only the absolute necessary data goes to the us . this is doable, but obviously requires investments by facebook. these are choppy things. that

method is sailing on last week. the company last active daily uses for the 1st time in a history not send the stock price tumbling by nearly a quarter, despite the threats of a year repeat and pull out the financial implications of doing so highly unlikely to be popular with shareholders. peter, all of a r c for lead previously activists and technology. but bill new told us that are a number of scandals in fact surrounding facebook and it's inability to provide data security met. so could quite easily set up a, an infrastructure in parallel in europe and, and process the data there, there are a number of different options. it could take the most obvious, all sure of all is for it to actually comply with the law. there been any number of scandals involving facebook and it's an inability to actually implement our privacy and security effectively. it doesn't seem to learn extra territorial laws that
3:25 pm
exist in the u. s. need to be revised in order to introduce a certain key elements we. we need that to be a level of transparency. we need that to be the opportunity for redress such that if your data is abused or seized, you can challenge that in the good. but don't think facebook is ever actually gonna cut off at service to europe. and it will try and reach a compromise nexus or about a block you as college students is facing felony charge is on suspicion of fabricating a hate crime by sticking notes with racist language. on a dorm room door in southern illinois university to white students were initially blamed for the racist statements, but an investigation of the end determined their innocence and other black students being charged with filing a false police report. earlier, black activists, sir rallied for the expulsion of the alleged perpetrators where they thought white teams were to blame. they say it's under investigation,
3:26 pm
but i feel like she shouldn't be on campus period because he threatened to lynch students on this campus. eventually you'll see the black population or the black students stop coming to southern illinois university. it were closely dwindled down until we're not there. it's kind of things, not a 1st of a numerous claims of hey crumbs being fake to us education institutions, such as a student who apparently ag, their own dorm room door and said she was being victimized because of a race. and then in another case, mostly high school students said she'd been targeted in a racist attack for then later admitted she was lying. we spoke with the editor of the college fix. it's a new sites on us. higher education. he told us students want the benefits in some cases from faking these kind of incidents university, there was a black female student who said that someone last racist notes on her door. she didn't send into other people. she sent it to herself. in terms of motivations,
3:27 pm
i'm not really sure a lot of times when the college texas are the stories, there's the, you know, the accusation which usually turns out to be false. and then there is a protest and there is demands for different things from the university. might be more funding and might be expanding or african american studies program. it might be their own, you know, center student union on campus. we often tell you when there's a allegation of attack on someone based off their race or sometimes religion, which we've also covered or their, their, their sexual dad. you know, there will be less of a petition, right, a less demand made to the university. so i and i certainly do think student act well well it's well explain that to, to try to get can sessions from their school that starts internationals. well, these are the levels for moscow as me, kevin, now in,
