with also germany's chancellor hints that one of russia is a red lines. ukrainian membership of nato isn't on the cards that during of stuff off in kiev ahead of a set of crisis told here in moscow with live and a 100 countries worldwide. it's 80 international in moscow. i always to show you a very warm welcome to you. so canada, as a prime minister just in trudeau has triggered the emergencies act for the 1st time
2:02 am
in the country's history, claiming that a truck was protest, us now it was 3rd week is threatening the security of canadians. here in our capital city families, small businesses have an enduring illegal obstruction of their neighborhoods, occupying streets, harassing people, breaking the law. this is not a peaceful protest. we cannot and will not allow illegal and dangerous activities to continue. however, civil liberties groups say the criteria for triggering the act having to come anywhere near to being satisfied. they are hard to meet by design as the act once activated allows government to, to bypass democratic procedures. now the act is supposed to be applied only in a case of a national crisis and gives the government extra powers for 30 days, including the ability to close bank accounts and seize vehicles,
2:03 am
critic say the so called freedom convoy, protest against the vaccine mandates, doesn't amount to a threat to national security was premier's in some canadian province is saying they don't want the emergency legislation implemented on their territories. we don't believe this is necessary and alberta, we think it could actually be somewhat counter productive. it is not legitimate and it is useless. so we don't want it. and we don't want the extent of the powers that the federal government could give itself. meanwhile, in the countries capital city auto were supporters of tacos, remain, come to round parliament hill. there's a bit of a festive atmosphere, love music, some people with dancing earlier and we spoke with a freedom convoy ontario organize about the newly triggered government power. he told us that prime minister should resort to dialogue, not for i think he's a tower doing that. let's be honest here, real leaders will come out and talk to the people you'll come and find resolve in resolution,
2:04 am
especially when the people are being peaceful. and they're only asking that the mandates and we have not used any violence. we have not caused any problems. in fact, we've, we've done more good than these leaders, the so called leaders, an auto group keep attacking us with media and lies. so for us, we're not moving. we're not going anywhere until our demands are met, regardless of what just intruder says we're trying to be. we don't watch any kind of escalation of any sort. it's been government who continues to double down with an irish. just what i'd like to see though is the government to actually come out and talk to us and hear what we have to say, rather than continuously try to talk on people. meantime, believe it or not, things have reached such a point now where showing support for the freedom convoy could cost you your job. vancouver radio station has fired host kid costs,
2:05 am
and through said the movement was not racist. the station cited misleading and inaccurate opinions for its decision house to radio show. i'm expect to talk about all sorts of things, but it seems i have to avoid talking about all the things that really matter. and it's especially hard with the thing that's having an ottawa we spoke with pastor henry hildebrand, who says that the most repressive for the government is the more the people will support the truckers. the majority of canadians are on the side of the moving freedom movement, because at this point, you don't have 16 percent support in the polls, which we all know isn't a lot and it's going to, it keeps on diminishing as he forcefully acts against his own citizens. against the people that voted him in it is it i don't think much will change because the more the more he or preface to people, the more it confirms that they are standing up for what they should be strung up
2:06 am
for, which is our god given freedom we can keep up any more, we don't know is closing is closing is opening up right now is when we were removing this, but keeping out he said, is keeping the math is people cannot go to the sports halls so which one is that we can keep track and the freedom convoy is getting support beyond canada and the belgian capital, the latest global city to have held a rally and solidarity of people came from all across the european union to, to attend and voice their objections to cobra restrictions and mandates. and all that made the think of it all. correspondent, charlotte? ah ah. as you can see, we've now got tensions in the crowds. the police have formed this barricade on the
2:07 am
one side of us and less than about 5 or 6 meters away. there's a barricade on the other side, and what they're doing now is a catalyst into this one area and not allowing us to pass at this moment. you may have just seen that man trying to get past the police and then being pushed back by the offices here, i protest is have come out. they say to be peaceful. they say that they want to join other protest across the city. but quite frankly, that is not being allowed as the authorities are trying to keep it laid on any issues here in brussels. so actually i can send any more, deserves like a freedom. and i mean, i'm really need someone to please, and it's a shame i just received guess in my eyes, the currency to get an update. but he said it's really dividing people in 2 different categories. and people are parked in each other instead of a unifying. and i think by just a shame that we will not lose our freedom,
2:08 am
we will accept no lies, tear gas was fired at protest isn't shown silly. say i was also he, on the street and 60 years old, the said dictatorship regime, as all the people i know already vaccinated. although new, we came to the protest to support our french friends. we walked many kilometers. we are not against vaccines. we are against vaccine passes, do socket on it. for the most part, the convoy failed in its objectives. traffic wasn't stopped and brussels didn't fall on to the power over movement that feels as if it had a strong social media presence. however, protest this did achieve, but one thing compelling anti cove restriction movements from several countries across europe under one banner to show that they have a voice and to demand that it's heard charlotte, even ski aussie brussels russian nor figures getting prodigy camilla valley
2:09 am
ever had to hold back the tears as she spoke to the media for the 1st time about the doping scandal that has a rock or a lympics. and she was clear to compete by the code of arbitration for support on monday. here is what she had to say. to me, which was good for me. i would say yeah, rather not sure. so i will show it if we were show a good she you know to do before, michelle is just to get her set up some of the value of a claims she may have tested positive for
2:10 am
a bad substance after mixing up her grand dads medication with her own now that is according to media report, citing a member of the i received disciplinary commission. the figure skater is due to take part in the women's single skating competition. later on tuesday evening, alexi chefs corresponded in beijing host city. fall this report. believer is among the last 5, fig escaped us to take to the ice. that will happen about 10 p. m local time here. and it's a big question as to how she is emotion in a fit for this competition. you just saw the bit of an interview with a russian broadcasting channel. here she was very emotional. she was fighting back tears. and it's a big question whether she will be able to perform as she usually does in such circumstances. we have to understand that the believer is not just as states as she is head and shoulders above everyone, pretty much in the world right now. she's a heavy favorite to win gold. and also let's not forget that on the should buckle and alexander to silver are all also very strong figures. status representing
2:11 am
r o c. there will be also competing in that program. so there is a heavy chance that on thursday when the individual female eyes figure skating championship rounds up, the entire r o c podium will be there. but we've already heard from the international impact committee that should believe or be anywhere within the top 3. when the championship rounds up, there will be no metals ceremony that is, according to the eye, you'll see statement that they said that they can not hold a metal ceremony. not even for the team figure skating event, which happens a 10 days ago where of oliva was a part of the program. ah, this is quite a, you know, a divisive decision have many have said already that it's controversial and to add even more fuel to the fire they had of i. ulysses disciplinary committee also came up with a somewhat awkward statement saying that they did feel sorry for all the clean athletes, even if they are from russia. if that is a joke, well,
2:12 am
many said that this is kind of a bad joke for. busy an official of such a high stature here in beijing. in any case, there's been also a flurry of wards of support for camille of oliver. like his case. i wish for you to remain calm and he, she turned education you anyway. it's very difficult here and a lot of yeah, that's a great. yeah, thank you. well, over camels lease and perform wonderfully. all that we believe in museum. can somebody have had a thought? everything will be fine. you'll get through it. don't worry. i will let you know. i want to wish her good luck and say that's lucky, very much a proud of her success in hip she teams. oh again, see if what you point using is i'm very worried about half from the birth of my hi irish. her success, golf, regardless of how the competition goes, he and range in beijing for females, caters in the individual program. we understand everyone understands here that it's just the beginning of the story. cause believer is allowed to participate,
2:13 am
but clearly there will be an investigation. there will be legal cases. so trying to find out where the she really did use the ban substance tri, met as a dean just before coming here to beijing. but we've already heard from the russian anti doping agency in a statement that indeed there was a irregularity when it comes to the doping testing. because ru saw the claims that they did send the probe to the stockholm laboratory, accredited by water on time. so to believe that there was absolutely no obstacle whatsoever for that laboratory to produce the positive test before the olympics. and of course that would have disqualified camille oliver from participation in his games. and this full roar would have been largely avoided. and obviously the litigation that it will ensue after the olympics is over, also would have been avoidable. in any case, i'm going that tonight to see how camille of oliver performs to get some reactions as well. and of course, i will keep all of us updated with everything i hear and see and making. we are
2:14 am
roughly halfway through the program. here. we're naughty and still ahead for you in this hour. we discover what life is like in the coldest inhabitant place on earth. the average wind temperature is below minus 50 degrees celsius of ya corresponds in are causing a rush. coff isn't there. will have his report for you and justify with hulu . ah, ah, ah, when i was sure seemed wrong when all things just don't hold any world yet to see proud disdain, because the african and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground.
2:15 am
so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy even foundation, let it be in arms. race is on offense. very dramatic development. only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and talk with caught up off the hour. here in moscow, german chancellor left sholtes has played down the prospects of ukraine joining nato. his remarks were made during his visit in kiev on monday. his next stop is right here at moscow,
2:16 am
where he'll be discussing the ukraine crisis with the russian lead of vladimir putin fruit and who has long made it clear that he has accession to the alliance is a red line. the fact that the question of membership in alliances in practice isn't an issue. so it is somewhat odd to see that the russian government is making something that in practice is not on the agenda. the object of great political difficulty or at 1st with partners mission of that when it comes to what support berlin will be providing for kia, vol. i've shult said that germany remained committed to its partner to the east, but what he said they wouldn't be doing. we're sending weapons lethal aid to ukraine. however, the german chancellor was very keen to point out exactly how much financial aid germany had already sent to ukraine and said that they would continue to do that in the future. we are struggling with more than $2000000000.00. we have made the ukrainian economy more resilient and independence in the face of foreign influence
2:17 am
. we have in short as we're tanami and resilience. and i can assure you that we will continue the support with the st. termination thus with diesel, all have sholtes and said that germany will be part of sanctions that will be leveled at russia if there is an invasion of ukraine. but all of schultz is also pointed out, particularly when he was stood alongside joe biden. not so long ago that sanctions against russia would have a serious impact upon germany. if you look, it trade. germany exports $30000000000.00 a year to russia, imports around $19000000000.00 a year from russia. when it comes to energy. germany gets 36 percent of its pipeline gas from russia. it gets 34 percent of its crude oil from russia. all of those things absolutely crucial to keeping germany's industrial power house its economy. in fact, taking over all of those things that would be impacted by sanctions if they were
2:18 am
imposed upon russia. all of these things, of course, have to be kept in mind by the german chancellor. it's going to be testing may think between all f schultz and vladimir person will be keeping a close eye on it. here at all t, all the news as it comes out of moscow course we'll have it for us. house speaker nancy pelosi has distanced herself from cold within our own party to defun the police. of course it was a, a rallying cry of the black lives matter movement. in recent years, the california democrat insists it was never supported by the democrats. that is not the position of the democratic party community safety to protect and defend in every way is our oath of office. and policy will be running for reelection in the mid terms in november, hoping to extend her 3 decade run in congress. calling suggest is going to be a bit of a bumpy ride with support the democrats in free fall. the idea of slashing police
2:19 am
funding is just one of many issues where prominent democrats have been at odds with a majority of voters. here's what some of them have said in the recent past. when we say defun police, what we mean as people are dying and we need to invest in people's livelihoods. instead. example, detroit spent $294000000.00 on police last year and $9000000.00 on house. this is systemic oppression in numbers. we're going to defend the police and refund our social services. don't like this idea. well, we don't like dead black and brown bodies and broken families at the hands of those torn to protect us. the police have failed at fixing themselves, so we're going to do it too many police in our country are more concerned with protecting white supremacy and serving the communities that pay the salaries to fund the police became a popular slogan after the killing of george floyd at the hands of
2:20 am
a policeman in may 2020, the height of the unrest more than 20 major u. s. cities including new york, chicago, and seattle all slash their law enforcement budgets. those cuts were later reversed after a spike in violent crime and near record rates of homicides. we want the latest to us polls to put support for the democrats at approximately 42 percent of $47.00 are going for the republicans. and analysts say the state of play could be reflected in the upcoming mid terms with joe biden's party losing major ground. and we discuss these issues with dominic ego over time policeman. or she doesn't remember that the rhetoric against law enforcement the last several years has been completely, well, that's the worst i've ever seen it in, in, in my time and law enforcement. so i think that the democrats there this backtracking, or in the mid term election year. and all the sudden you're going to need to, you need to have the balance between the police in the communities. so this is, it's just their same tactic every single year. this is a big, synergistic go back and forth between the cops who are not allowed to do their jobs
2:21 am
. criminals, you could do whatever they want. and politicians who are blaming the cops. so it's, it's, it's black and white and a story. i honestly think for all the attention we're giving the american police officer, we're not giving them a much enough attention to where it needs to be, which is how is this affecting them? no one is talking about that, and that's a big conversation that needs to be had. well, it's good to have with us today. it's all t international ally from moscow is now a 10 21 am on tuesday. as you know, russia has a bit of a reputation for being rather a chilly place and indeed its host to the coldest town on earth. locals daily lives take place and temperatures below minus 50 degrees celsius. the town is cold or mac on and all teens, constantino, oshkosh, brave the weather to fill my special extended report for us a. so here is the 1st of full pots. the other 3 will be shown over the next few days, wrap up and enjoy ah,
2:22 am
arise the journey to the coldest place on earth. he starts and he goes to the capital of a vast russian regional iberia called you quote here. it's already pulled in here, according to the cities, thermometer is minus $34.00 degrees celsius or minus $29.00 fahrenheit for said an hour for or mac on our final destination to morrow morning. so we have some time on our hands to explore the city of mucus, which is by the way, the largest city on our planet built in permafrost. the city's population is over 330000 people. most of them live in buildings built on piley's quite common in this part of the world. the gap between the 1st floor in the frozen ground helps the building stay worn during the cold winter months. first impression. everything here is covered either in the snow or ice. sidewalks rose har, building trees,
2:23 am
power lines. everything went into this cold. nothing works the way you're used to. when local police came over to check up on us, they wrote down our names with a pencil, a regular ball point pen would have simply frozen and become useless and these temperatures are equipped and started acting up right. as we left our hotel, a camera battery that usually last for hours died in just 30 minutes. when we walk into a cafe to warm it up, i found my i phone had switched off and was covered in frost. this was a routine mistake on my part though. in yu coach and everyone knows how to look out for their smartphone. so it doesn't die in the extreme cold. i always put my phone in my in a pocket, keep it warm. otherwise, the battery quickly died in the cold and you end up with no connection. as we talk with this man, children behind us were happily playing for them. it was just the normal inter day, and they definitely didn't want to waste it by sitting at home. yet most outsiders
2:24 am
would find a local climate truly extreme in you could hear it's definitely cold in the winter, but it also gets incredibly hot in the summer months. it's like the last summer was so hot. so sporting that the original is here where the record breaking wildfires, and there are people you see on the street or graving, the cold weather as they go bothering day with business. they were suffering from sweltering heat and smoke less than 6 months ago. so farming is difficult in this climate. so hunting and fishing have always been the main source of food for locals as can be seen at the local market. the low temperature is actually come in handy as the sellers don't need special equipment to refrigerate the food. what are you going to do with the whole fish? how will you prepare it?
2:25 am
we're going to make pies rose made and come with. we're going to eat, deliver ra wrong. yes, ross at the danger? no, it's been froze over there are no germs left. none of these treat vendors stay out on the cold 12 hours. the date a temperature is as low as minus 40 degrees celsius about minus 40 fahrenheit. some of them stand on fur. i've made from brain dear hines to keep their feet off the frozen ground for life. he stand a for a while for the war mob, a bit. to be honest, this was a relief as my feet had gone numb after just a few hours outside. almost everyone i met on the streets. tell me my boots didn't look warm enough for the weather. i see you whatever other boots. that's fine, but it's muggy and so on. really need a pair with during the winter. a. do you think these will last long?
2:26 am
couple that far and then a good for russia local, send me to another market where they usually buy their winter clothes. when i showed a shopkeeper my boots and told him, i'm going like these toy mack on. he literally did this and told me i was not. instead he gave me a pair of veiled boards and even bernie piece of the fur to prove it was in fake. why am i supposed to smell harriage to smell like hair or 3200 rubles? and i'll take the field. of course, the type of footwear is less important if you can get around in a car, but looking after a vehicle in the winter months here presents a lot of challenges to leave your car exposed to the fridge and whether like this is a great chance you won't be able to start in the morning, so what do you do about it? by garage?
2:27 am
well, it is an option. here, a garage can cause almost as much as a small apartment. so locals came up with a brilliant idea of covering the recalls in war, blankets or tents, which out keep some of the engine heat inside a car blanket like this cost around $130.00 us dollars. and it's a hot item in this town during winter. the owners usually write their personal details like their license plate number on them to prevent them from being stolen. and other thing that he see quite often here on the streets that would appear bizarre for someone who lives in a different climate car's running with our drivers. here you can see there is no driver, but the car is running. you see people here, they use remote starters to heat up their vehicles from the com of their own house . hopefully that's what happens if you leave your car unprotected and don't warm it
2:28 am
up at night. it will completely freeze it and you won't be able to start it. not at all. no, not a chance. it's impressive to see such a big and sustainable community living in one of the world's most unwelcome in settings. these people have adapted to the harsh climate so well, most of them wouldn't even consider living anywhere else. we know this crime is we have noticed his childhood. in fact, it seems that the freezing period is getting shorter every year, and it's getting a bit warmer. but where we're going, it's even colder and then a new cost blue joined me every thursday on the alex simon, sure. and i'll be speaking to guess in the world of politics, sport, business, i'm show business. i'll see you then.
2:29 am
ah, the democratic republic of congo is among the richest countries in the world and natural resources, but he cannot mclee it. still one of the poorest cobalt is an essential material in manufacturing batteries by modern devices like electric cars, mobile phones and computers. 60 percent of the welt, cobalt reserves are in congo 20 percent of it comes from small scale mines. unicef figures confirm that in 2017. more than $40000.00 children worked in cobalt mining in the republic to earn a living and pay for schooling. next time you use a fancy gadget like a smartphone camera or laptop, just remember that there's a chance it works thanks to a child hard labor. children like john michelle. henry at o countless others like them. ah,
2:30 am
it is driven by a dream shaped by frontier. some of those with dares sinks. we dare to ask ah, in a plot which sounds like a t me drop by the department of justice now says the claim for president campaign in 2016. i legally spied on the trump campaign. what were they hoping to find in kennedy or j really claim innocent.
