give some deniability to the government and the idea on how to use the tension in eastern europe hundred europe can be arrived at. just not a person that we can or should never expect to trust or admire. we can at least look for new framework for that part of the world that will be less dangerous. maybe the best way to start. >> i would just add that i think that the president's trip is actually laying the groundwork to get to a more integrated and strategic policy towards russia. some conversation with our closest allies about what they have been experiencing. how they see russia. how to build some alignment on how we want to go forward. i think that it is very clear, frankly, expectation or interest in a reset. i think the second thing is looking to engage putin to do the resolved part. the resolute part of my suggestion. this will be a meeting where biden spends a lot of time laying out, you know, how the u.s. news, russian behavior from ukraine to cyber attacks on the u.s. that are affecting average americans to their lack of cyber criminals operating on the shoreline accountable to

the port city was a trading house to eastern europe. the iron curtain interrupted billings for decades. now the city wants to return to its former glory and is hoping the chinese will help us when the silk road agreement was signed in march 2019 tree. se was at the center of attention with northern italy was slated to become a major trans shipment center for chinese export presented to augustine, who is head of the port authority. thanks china's interest in tree, yes is a group of it's growing significance. b c, but based on europe is growing a lot old base nations are very easily accessible by, by the part of the as they saw. you know, i think it is very simple. if you look at a map, you see that if you pass through 3 s the and you go to hungary, to germany, to say you arrive foster van busing from the northern arrange port. the city is investing even more in its rail network than in the fort itself. built over 100 years ago. it's direct links to eastern europe are still there. they just have to be upgraded. but 3 is also at pains to e

so it's actually in the twenty's, even the low thirty's for good part of central eastern europe. there are thunderstorms, possibly here still to come, but really it's the heat. mostly we're concerned about eastern poland, the baltic states, and down through the western side of the balkans. there are warnings in place just to keep the public on their toes in moscow. once again, temps is rising by 32 degrees to the spring, the streets, and the people enjoying either sunbathing or keeping cold. the real high temperatures have been in the east side of spain. as a warning, a severe heat. ashley joined david. those temperatures were dropped down tomorrow as this weather feather north influences the who's frank assessments is an argument for suggesting that the, by the ministrations are playing a long game. it's very much of a warm embrace, the iran nuclear deal because of us domestic politics, informed opinions, schools, and shelters of been reduced to rubble. how do you think this shapes a generation and the politics then, is that a life has been shaped by the vitamin, the in depth ana

but it's still a struggle and it's in destruct, says in this society is in eastern europe, that they are not as far advanced when it comes to, to civil rights and gay rights and has been rights. this is the men of the twos. it can change, but it will take time. what do you say by that passcode that we have we have to for, for, for a period of time, except that there is prejudice to there is hatred? yeah, unfortunately, yes, and i think what, what we have to what we can see in these examples in hungary right now in poland where conservative people proclaim the so called l g b t free zones. the situation in romania is also very problematic. it shows that there is not a logical, positive development in the, in the history with always, every year or with always new and more rise for l g b, t, people. you can also have a road back. i mean the situation since the end of the community was never perfect in hungary and poland and he's in these or countries, but in poland for example, you have, you still have but you had prod, marches, etc. and there were some, some positive developments. and

there is encroached into the hot air is still around in eastern europe and persistent rain is going to be along this line. i think here in the southern part of got a navy and scuttle extract. there you are. that's the big circulation taking place during wednesday. the dr. blues would suggest biggest showers and usually they don't extend down seriously. don't go to the balkans and they're not really that much evident in spain or portugal. either. in fact, by the time we get to 30 more or less a north south spit if you ignore what's disappearing out of eastern europe into russia, which has dropped temperatures a bit. so all around the edge of what's currently revolving, it's quite hot. in fact, the heat, warring guys for hungary to serbia for bits of italy, for example. and there's a reason for that. the attempt is on record breaking. they went above normal, the average is 29 in belgrade got about 38 on friday if it shines the record you can see with quiet sunshine, with little wind as well, because his houghton pot in north africa, but seasonally we get the big raises tom, the there the

ah, ah, the heat of eastern europe, which has been near reco breaking the certainly western russia, is being broken down by the thunderstorms being thrown in by this area of low pressure's, been advancing slowly east was now. it is disappointing in itself. if your underneath it is cold and clearly and often weapon has been the case. bridge charles in particular last appears weak, but the client is breaking here and the thunderstorm, the dropping the temperature in eastern europe was quite a distinct lyra through eastern part of dance was more diver romania. this is during saturday. there's been a lot of heat to the south of that as well that athens to see the temp dropped to 32 from nearly 40 that heat as extended into north africa. and it's still round about $41.00, mark in tripoli, and warmer than that in cairo. but there is a breeze you can see. so generally speaking, temperatures are being least kept down. i must off africa, of course is hot and dry. but the rain gets a long way north this time. yeah. if you, if you, how's the seeing showers are a big shower in guinea and living fu

but it's certainly hot the sun through spain, in fact, throughout the mediterranean and eastern europe as has been not quite recalled breaking behind it pretty close to for a while. and that this to the prevailing breeze admitted, even athens is of $41.00 in the full cost, the 1st in drops off again as both client and breeze shirts. so that breeze is blowing throughout the mediterranean. so there has been hot recently in turkey and cypress, mister warnings of high temperature out, for example, in cyprus and event. that breeze takes the edge off, at least on the coast, if not in land sponsored call cut on airways. be part of the debate itself defeated and cozy in the us or in the u. k, because it will just come back again when no topic is off the table. but we wanted to talk about the lens, white man, touching a large stream where a global audience becomes a global community. jumping to the comment section and part of the discussion there are like the metric efforts to silence fell opinions on the online face on al jazeera. ah, ah, the me again, the top floor is on are there other sour?

but it's certainly hot the sun through spain, in fact, throughout the mediterranean and eastern europe, as has been not quite recalled breaking behind it pretty close to for a while. and this to the prevailing breeze admitted even athens is of 40, while in the forecast assist in drops off again as both cried and breathed shirts, so that breeze is blowing throughout the mediterranean. so there has been hot recently in turkey and cypress, mister warnings of high temperature, for example in cyprus and event. that breeze takes the edge off, at least on the coast. if not in land, the lead you'll come onto the pitch is a special moment for any football to do it as a palestinian woman is a remarkable achievement. footballing legend added canton introduces honey. who broke through social and political barriers to inspire a generation of female players across the middle east. football rebels. let's do it on algae 0 award winning programming from international. so make it one quick. so it's right on the back side of the global discussion. what guarantee that the, the right to take the life givin

difficult for me to believe that an attack of this magnitude could be launched by a russia or eastern europe and acquiescing, if not being actually behind it. 0k, well, let's take that as a working hypothesis. obviously we don't know for certain, but if that is true, what do you think the response of the biden administration should be? well, i think the president has appropriately warned president putin that if this kind of behaviour continues, either with or without his consent but originating from russian territory, the united states will respond. and i think if it's proven that this was coming from russia, we will have to respond. 0k, what do you mean by "respond"? whether that means only going after the actual attacking group as we did with the last ransomware attack, where we recovered a lot of the ransom money paid and possibly crippled some of their operations, or we actually go further and demonstrate to the russian government that we have the capability to attack their critical infrastructure if we decide to do so, i'm not sure. my guess is we would respond incrementally, working ou

but it's still a struggle and it's in the structure of the societies in eastern europe, that they are not as far advanced when it comes to, to civil rights and gay rights. and there's been rights. this is the matter of the truth. it can change, but it will take time. what do you say by that passcode that we have we have to for, for, for a period of time, except that there is prejudice that there is hatred? yeah, unfortunately, yes, and i think what, what we have to what we can see in these examples in hungary right now in poland where conservative people proclaim the so called l g b t free zones. the situation in romania is also very problematic. it shows that there is not a logical, positive development in the, in the history with always, every year or with always new and more rise for l g b, t, people. you can also have a road back. i mean the situation since the end of the community was never perfect in hungary and poland and he's in these or a countries, but in poland for example, you have, you still have but you had prod, monitors, etc. and there were some, some positive developm

so it's actually in the twenty's, even the low thirty's for good part of central eastern europe. there are thunderstorms, possibly here, still to come, but really the heat, most people are concerned about eastern poland, the baltic states, and down through the western side of the balkans. there are warnings in place just to keep the public on their toes in moscow. once again, temps is rising by 32 degrees for the spring, the streets, and the people enjoying the sun. bathing or keeping cold. the real high temperatures have been in the east side of spain as a warning, a severe heat. ashley george david, those temperatures will drop down tomorrow as this weather feather north influences sponsored pay cut on airways. when freedom of the press is on the threat. you know, you just con, thought genuinely about your thoughts toward the making government step outside the mainstream. the has been a implement here just some of access to the internet shift the focus, the panoramic that's turned out to be a handy little pretext of the prime minister to clamp down on the press covering the wave

so all of eastern europe and the south east is coding down. athens hangs on. as you can see, our spain has a really good space where france is a good day border at 29 degrees. even that sees temperatures drop from the rain, the wind coming during saturday that spreads up to the u. k as well. now there is still heat where you might expect it in southern spain, that robin and the fear is further. east murphy is a good example now to county area with his temperature 40 and reco, but it's well above the average, as is still the case. and it was a case yesterday in greece at 44 arcos when the oldest occupied cities in the world is still hot. and it will stay that way with athens at 44 or friday. but it cools down considerably on saturday. the for some, a robot is a mechanical or even that self driving train. the apple. but androids today can be really humanoid. robots, like me, will be everywhere. options 0 documentaries. next lead on the weird and wonderful world of robot that learn think field and even trust. i feel like i'm alive, but i know i am a machine origi

as you point out, cyber experts think it's this criminal gang based out of russia or eastern europe. arlette saenz, thank you so much. >>> what started as a traffic stop escalated into a nine-hour standoff between police and heavily armed men wearing military style uniforms. this is quite a story here. let's bring in cnn's evan mcmorris-santoro, standing by with the very latest. >> reporter: hi, pam. there's really a sigh of relief north of boston tonight as this armed standoff that blocked a major interstate ended peacefully. >> we were able to successfully resolve this situation through a combination of negotiation and some tactical maneuvers. >> reporter: an hours-long standoff between heavily armed men and police on one of the nation's busiest interstates ended without incident as authorities took 11 people into custody. still, many questions are left about what exactly was behind this potentially dangerous saturday morning just north of boston. >> they wanted to be heard. they wanted to be -- a variety of -- not demands, but requests that they just be allowed to leave the area,

well, you'd be wrong to expect that this circulation of cloud over much of northern the eastern europe represents much cold weather. cool, i think for many cody from the sea coast of the british isles of the low countries where that circulation just keeps bringing the wind on shore with clad. but inland a bit, we're still talking about the low twenty's, maybe the high t's if you really unlucky. and that's pushing out of the way. what was temperatures in the middle to high 30. so all of eastern europe and the south east is coding down. athens hangs all, as you can see, our spain has really good space where france is a good day border at 29 degrees. even that sees temperatures drop from the rain, the wind coming during saturday, that spreads up to the u. k as well. now there is still heat where you might expect it in southern spain rather than that, and the fear is further east murphy is a good example now to count the area with his temperature, 40 and direct, but it's well above the average, as is still the case and it was a case yesterday in greece at 44, across from the oldest occupie

difficult for me to believe that an attack of this magnitude could be launched by a russia or eastern europeing about it and acquiescing, if not being actually behind it —— revil. 0k, actually behind it —— revil. ok, well, let us take as a working hypothesis. obviously we don't know for certain but if that is true, what do you think the response of the biden administration should be? weill. administration should be? well, i think the president _ administration should be? well, i think the president has - i think the president has appropriately warned president putin that if this kind of behaviour continues, either with or without his consent but originating from russian territory, the united states will respond. i think if it is proven that this was coming from russia, we will have to respond. from russia, we will have to respond-— from russia, we will have to resond. . ., ., ., _ respond. what do you mean by respond? _ respond. what do you mean by respond? whether _ respond. what do you mean by respond? whether that - respond. what do you mean by respond? whether that means| respond? whethe

the time we get to 30 more or less a north south spit if you ignore what's disappearing out of eastern europe into russia, which has dropped temperatures a bit. so all around the edge of what's currently revolving in court heart and track the heat, warring guide for hungary to serbia, the bits of italy, for example. and the reason for that attempt is on record breaking that one above normal. the average is $29.00.

by time to get to 30 more or less a north south spit if you ignore what's disappearing out of eastern europe into russia, which has dropped temperatures a bit. so all around the edge of what's currently revolving, it's quite hot. in fact, the heat war engaged for hungary, the serbia, the bits of italy, for example. and the reason for that attempt is on record breaking. they went above normal. the average is $29.00 in belgrade, goats about $38.00 on friday. if it shines the record, you can see very quiet sunshine with little wind as well because it's hot, it's hot in north africa, but seasonally we get the big raises tom the, there they're in chat, nigeria. and more especially down in the far west of molly the a year ago, one of the largest non nuclear blasts in history killed more than 200 people and injured 1000. the victims families still need answers. we want justice. how did dangerous chemicals end up in baby support? let's be professional. it was not intended for muslim. and was the whole stockpile unloaded from the ship? the missing amal and it wasn't all in one way or another. members

i don't think they can live that life will help the standard i've capital a lot in poland and eastern europe. and i'm curious to see how things have changed in recent years. especially the building of new jewish community, all my stuff and i hope to learn something by talking to the people father. and that's what i'm most excited about at the moment. we could talk, you know, how poland is developed. and i suspect that there's growing right wing population, the tax on democracy and liberalism, or another movement that directly targeting do days. i'm going to have to shift. i'm very curious about that. a lot of the news, a lot has changed here in recent years in terms of jewish life and how it progressed well on our way to the jewish school. and we saw that as 30 percent jewish and 70 percent non jewish children. yes, it's nice that there are jewish schools here again at all voting and fish in sad to say to one they don't have to write down the prayers, but we have somebody meeting so we have to do and come and see every friday went on forever forever. forever, once i'm celebration, we don't c

from austin and others who later fled from eastern europe because of hostilities and pogroms taking place because i pushed it by dots, homo and i'm trying to, we've got fun on these and there's nicks of survivors wasn't necessarily interested in liberal judaism yet they were more interested in their old home, in the last traditional judaism, something that gave them security a death to happen, as it does here, is so that's been a bone of contention in the original main synagogue near to the old jewish ghetto, wasn't liberal enough for some of frankfurt jews, in google, or people call it liberal, liberal and orthodox in one walk. and then just and that's why this temple was built in item or this speaking wooded liberal jews in the 19th and early 20th centuries referred to temples rather than synagogues. initially, when they were saying, we don't need to recreate the temple in jerusalem or the template and with an envy to of the home, we are quite happy with this temple. this house of worship in this form here in frankfort tells us of poet oh the my in this system is meant in terms of jewis

but it's still a struggle and it's in the structures of the societies in eastern europe, that they are not as far advanced when it comes to, to civil rights and gay rights. and there's been rights. this is the metal for truth. it can change, but it will take time. what do you say by that passcode that we have we have to for, for a period of time, except that there is prejudice that there is hatred? yeah, unfortunately, yes, and i think what, what we have to say what we can see in these examples in hungary right now in poland where conservative people proclaim the so called l g b t free zones. the situation in romania is also very problematic. it shows that there is not a logical, positive development in the, in the history with always, every year or with always new and more rise for l g b, t, people. you can also have a road back. i mean, the situation since the end of the communism was never perfect in hungarian, poland, and he's in these or countries, but in poland for example, you have, you still have, but you had prod, march was etc, and there were some, some positive developments.

changes, but of course it takes time because all what happened with this particular countries in eastern europe, they didn't happen within a couple of years. they happened within half a century, 50 years of hope to say wrong history. and now to imagine that they were to think can be fixed within a couple of years. well, it's illusion, but it didn't happen, but it will take time misapplied. how worried you about the news this week? the parties of the far right have formed an alliance against brussel, saying they'll fight for what they call national sovereignty and tried to prevent a european state be 16 poppies from 15 countries in the european union, in a direct challenge to the rows that they signed up to when they exceeded to the european union, that's hardly progress. is it? well i, i'm not worried because we have seen this kind of slogans on the 10 so, so during previous years, there's no election senior more than slogans. i mean, they, they managed to bring you to south to a standstill inside. marian done that no, i disagree so far its own the slogan, since we have seen the slogan. so duri

to achieve this, the french room has been bringing parts of its production capacity back from eastern europe. and that if you did, all i can, is it, we are we storing the production of enamel steam times because they are strategic element of our a heat pump that helps us protect our innovation. plus, we are reducing our overall production costs through optimization and lower trend policies. one no longer having to deal with lengthy transport delays most of tomorrow. but that resource process would have nearly ground to hold last year due to the pandemic. if it were in for an 800000 year government city, the company receive towards latest $5000000.00, your investment in you production facilities. bringing back industry to france is part of the country's plan to re launch. it's pandemic. it economy thought that we are providing 500000000 years of government support to 500 companies are reassuring pul paid so me your door to case our country has been de industrialized for 30 years and yet industry is the backbone of our economy is clearly cool. and that a lot of the not, i couldn't, i mean this

to achieve this, the french room has been bringing parts of its production capacity back from eastern europe. i don't know this, she did all okay. we'll be storing the action of enamel the tongues because they are strategic element of our a heat pump that helps us protect our innovations. plus, we are reducing our overall production costs through optimization and lower transport fees was no longer having to deal with lengthy transport delays and look for tomorrow. but that resource process would have nearly ground to hold last year due to the pandemic. if it were in for an 800000 year government subsidy, the company received towards latest $5000000.00 euro investment in new production facilities. bringing back industry to france is part of the country's plan to re launch. it's pandemic hit economy. he thought that we are providing 500000000 years of government support to 500 companies on reassuring pul paid so, so me, your door to cation country has been de industrialized for 30 years. and yet the industry is the backbone of our economy. and that a lot of that, i couldn't me, this expert say

to achieve this, the french room has been bringing parts of its production capacity back from eastern europe. on this, he did all of the shoring the production of in them a few times because they are strategic element of our a heat pump. that helps us protect our innovations. plus we are reducing our overall production through ultima zation and lower transport fees was no longer having to deal with lengthy transport delays. good luck on it. but that resource process would have nearly ground to hold last year due to the pandemic. if it were in for an 800000 year government subsidy, the company received towards the latest $5000000.00 your investment in you production facilities. and i fell off with the french market, had practically collapse because of private 19. and that made us question our decision to real kate government was it was it? it is also that when you receive the offer of government support, we knew we have to go for a moment yet it, it was creating 10 more jobs this year has ended around the end of the company's not an isolated case. bringing back into c to france is part of the
