britain was being bombed. britain had no ability to land troops.itler had a one-front war, a different one-front war. we think we're so smart. we ended up with a two-front war. people are saying, let's not do this. there are elements within the american government and military who are trying to say, especially ernie king, chief of naval operations, let's not fight and get sucked into the british war. we have our own war. fortunately for the europe first strategy, roosevelt sees that hitler has the greater strengths, the greater resources, perhaps even the greater evil and he has to be , dealt with first and that will free up the united states. russia may fall if we have a pacific first strategy. and the, you know, if hitler is like a snake, the more animals he swallows, he needs time to digest it, but then he gets stronger and bigger. you don't really have a lot of time. but this issue is going to be very important because britain will be pushing for a first-front war, first-front war, because it's almost ready to be obliterated. it has interest in

and they've got to get britain. leave the war and leave the war not defeated but leave the war with its empire intact and that's what hitler is continually giving these very strange speeches that he has no problem no acrimony with the british that he's willing to cut a deal with him he's allowed quarter million british perhaps another 100,000 french to escape it dunkirk and all of that sets the stage for the biggest blunder of the entire war which is probably the biggest blunder in the history of military operations the june 22nd. three million man invasion of the soviet union at that point everything is off the table. and why does he go into russia and we'll have some questions in a minute, but as we said last time most likely. for a two-part reason one. it's it's in accordance with what he said in mind comp that the marxist leninist jewish bolshevik presence has to be eradicated we need living space german settlers will turn this into a paradise there will be six lane roads from germany all the way down over here

well let's put it this way britain. eg the bandit a quarter of the subs the profit british am i not trading an extended all round well quite frankly joint european union was a mistake we should have always remained it won't trade us and leave no hurry to fight that mistake by leaving the e.u. i know it will be business all over the pacific we have our commonwealth in australia new zealand. and and and all over the world canada australia you know who what why would be worried about european union and who seem to be not keen to do business 1st who seem to be keen to stop our goods and coming across the channel we thought we had a free trade deal with them well no they aren't and switching every sort of pay you can imagine to write every other european nation into leaving the e.u. so maybe it's time britain set up its almost you happy and free trade association light any country any you care to join us to do so i bit a bit of european union but might not have a quick quite quite quickly we have quite a few members joining

and it's true — when it comes to decarbonisation, britain is a world leader.ion has fallen 90% in just the last five years. only four power stations still burn the stuff, and look what that has done to britain's carbon emissions. now, some european countries are doing pretty well, too, but in most big economies, look at this. emissions are still rising. critics say opening a new coal mine here threatens to undermine not only the uk's green reputation, but also its ability to demand other countries make ambitious carbon cuts. now, if that makes it less likely that the big climate conference in glasgow leads to meaningful action on climate change, it will have consequences for us all. justin rowlatt, bbc news now on bbc news, our world follows two syrian doctors brought face—to—face with life and death. even before coronavirus, 2020 got off to a deadly start in the syrian province of idlib. but life continued for the millions of syrians trapped in the territory. as doctors, mohammed al—sharif and zeina hallak worked on the frontline of the humanitarian crisis. a

people or more well as i say the rich countries say they're doing what they can and actually here in britain we are getting information that there is a vaccine kind of cold war shiner and rush era using coronavirus for their evil geopolitical intent it has to be said nigeria has emphasized the astra zeneca vaccine do you think more than the sputnik 5 and they sign a form chinese one yet and i think that has and i think partly because you know the coaches situation or what astra zeneca you know is something that. we're already have big on our united nations system and. i think if you if you if you look back you see that before the russians back then was that that for instance in the u.k. but also have results that you know everybody could look at and the russian one hasn't been tested here actually we're not really hearing much about sputnik 5 in britain. so so it's understandable why the nigerian government says you know. it's kind of going outside after that it got back in because our system here would be able to. ship that box and that particular brand in the right culture. or you know off

the russian one hasn't been tested here actually we're not really hearing much about sputnik 5 in britain. so so it's understandable why the nigerian government says you know. it's kind of going outside after that it got back in because our system here would be able to. ship that backs and the particular brand in the radical change or. hope for the submission but i think again if we look at it in the sense of equity and shorten that we have been of do this to back this up people i don't think we should be to deny this point in time as far as the particular vaccine has been shown to be efficient and safe nigeria's science minister dr. on you has in the past few days been saying that they're going to cooperate not only. with the bowler because i think there has been cooperation with the border with the cuban government. but they will be working with the cuban government on covina how did politics affect the coronavirus faxing distribution boxing you know permits everything because. definitely i'm not privy to the kind of discussions that happened happen at the president. and i don't know wh

in this particular instance, great britain surely had a key advantage.one second. i think it's not related to brexit in any manner, to be very frank. just take the facts, as well, here. the united kingdom decided to authorise with an emergency procedure. this is a fact. the first vaccine, which was not astrazeneca, which was pfizer—biontech in december, so a few days before the european agency, it was still legally bound by eu rules. any eu country could have done or could still do this emergency procedure. we decided not to do it, because we think in the long run in the eu, it creates more confidence for our public to have the same procedure between france, germany and other neighbours, to have the same contracts, not to have doubts if, for instance, the german authorities would have loads of vaccine and not the french one, oi’ vice versa. i think here people would be extremely worried about the seriousness of the process. let's move on to brexit, because not only is europe wrestling with the economic fallout from covid, it is also having to adjust to t

so there you can regulate a forecast right here in britain which is off com has now revoked the cork off license of china global television network c g c and so we all feel as this off comb investigation found that the license used by c.g. t.n. had been wrongfully hiles by start trying to media limited and that board doesn't meet the legal requirement pavan britain not in a statement from also called they reiterated the license holders cannot be controlled by political body but the reza cation itself isn't necessarily on political grounds and breaches at this stage so looking deeper then it's what all of this means c.t.c. and it's a position from china central television and is controlled by the chinese communist party and that will disqualify from holding both cost licenses under the u.k.'s regulations now the regular regulator kinds it was unable to transfer the license to the c.d.c. and directly as crucial information was missing from the application so it does feel like this is more of a technical process at this point in time but i can receive a statement from all common says ou

this before the pandemic how do you see the moral dimension to the current vaccine rollout here in britain i think that this government is story in india specific is that it's mission a good job and i think the public the general public is responding well to that as being what the hypoxia shouldn't take i think it is a moral imperative to get this about seen when it is off air i think refusing is a vaccine now is it morally irresponsible. as. you know sponsible to delay the execution of program like europe for example because every every a collective to create a system whereby as many vaccine as possible are distributed and on governments to approve it and a lot of extension program ask week in effect was only a moral question do you think elites fully understand why the dispossessed as it were do not trust elites when they tell them to take vaccines after you know arguably being repeated and they lied to over so many things whether it be the economy whether it be you had one of the iraq war i agree so that is another mistrust also within despondingly there's been a lot of i didn't misinfo

data from january suggests that more than half the trucks that previously drove through britain will now take the direct sea routes between rustler cork and double into french ports. a new warehouse was built at the rustler port just for crosstalk in goods. those hundreds more trucks call in support every day so local shops and service stations are now benefiting from about there's more jobs being created in the port charles will companies lycos were taking on more stuff so the economy in the region is certainly benefiting from it looks as if the port of rustler may be setting sail for a brighter future. and that's all for me and the business thanks for watching. she helps refugees however she can with clothes food and compassion the long haul yes i know who she ditched is and if you need work or in bosnia. she is supporting migrants perseverance here in the freezing cold like yasmina herself along with many fellow volunteers is coming under pressure. in some good southern europe. in 60 minutes on d.w.i. . what is different. here women are in charge. the archipelago has had a matriar

yes we hear european politicians and journalists together of a council of america and britain saying about the russian authorities have sentenced alexina valmy to a custodial sentence know who are russian acounter of the law has found alexina found 8 duty and has given him a custodial sentence but the problem in all of this is that alexina valley is neither here nor that certainly he has no standing in russia when it comes to western powers the new america and britain they understand in private that he has no stand in amongst the russian people however he is a useful tool to use against russia in maintaining that this argument's this theory of. arguments that russia stance against freedom and the rule of law and democracy and when it comes to be rippin union i am very confident pizza that if you sat down with the vast majority of cases german and french foreign policy makers and asked and do you really want a worsening in relations between the european union and russia on an account on accounts of never i don't believe they would say yes i believe that it is de americans because amer
