u. k. and sending troops and special forces. britain has already shipped missile systems which at claims are strictly defensive in nature. u. s. allies, including sweden are reinforcing military positions near russian borders. and the pentagon has just confirmed that its instructors will remain on ukrainian soil. a geo political analyst that we spoke to believes such a military build up cannot be seen as purely defensive. i can't see how you can call these defensive weapons if the weapon is used, either from behind the green line. let's take dumbass in eastern ukraine for instance, from behind the green line on the craning side or inside the green line. then it's not a defensive weapon. you'll see any benefit for russia, for a quote invading ukraine that they, they have nothing to gain from this at all. however, the u. s. the u. k. and france, for instance, the 3 primary members of nato. they are right now. there's the record, low confidence in the government, in political leaders, and so what

u. k. and other countries where people don't believe the others have a right to have a view, and this is an opposing view to them. and i think that's quite disgusting. and you know this? well, it could well end up in some form of prosecution or someone should call us harassment ass. i believe that she has said that she had also had problems since then. the individuals that committed harassment afterwards may well end up being guilty of crimes. a backlash against routing began in 2020 office. you question a headline about people who menstruate. boy, i mean, the meaning of the word woman had been last summer. would you? this took that to mean she was saying transgender men and women should have fewer rights. critical commentary to andre walker says you can, police are only wouldn't go off the crimes when it suits them. any police force that equality can do more or less investigation. i refer you back to the case of the scottish comedian, but taught his dog or the watchdog how to do hitler salutes

u. k. and other countries where people don't believe the others have a right to have a view, and this is the side of this an opposing view to them. and i think that's quite disgusting and, and you know this, well, it's good, well end up in some form of prosecution for someone should cause harassment apps. and i believe that she has said that she said, all sorts of problems since then. so individuals of committed harassment afterwards may well end up being guilty of crimes about class. again, rolling began in 2020 after she questioned headline about people who menstruate by claiming the meaning of the word woman had been lost. some twitter you this took that to me and she was saying transgender men and women should have fewer rights. vertical common data under walker says you can police and only willing to go to crimes when it suits them. any police force that equality can do more or less investigation. i refer you back to the case of the scottish comedian, but taught his dog or his wife's dog h

u. k and the u. s. so that's interesting. seen it. so it's also a blurring of lines, i think, between the criminal, the terroristic and mental health issue. and it seems like this man probably had sort of doubled in all 3. i mean, suddenly it's been reported that he was all finishing to radical islamists, such as john child dream people. so he should be massively flagged up. not just, you know, oh, he was a subject interest, but you know, we can close this down now a year ago. there should be a lot of red flags flying. that is man. and the fact that he could get out of u. k wasn't being investigation can get into the usa despite it's draconian. borders was is astonishing. yeah. and just to add to that he went in to g, f. k. he apparently got a gun on verified whether or not he got it illegally or boarded legally. and then made his way down to texas, got into a synagogue as well. that's a long way not to be tracked. but you would imagine the american intelligence agencies are pretty angry today that they didn't even have a warning to go

u. k. and other countries where people don't believe the others have a right to have a view, and this is an opposing view to them. and i think that's quite disgusting. and you know this? well, it could well end up in some form of verification or someone should cause harassment acts. and i believe that she has said that she had also had problems since then. so individuals committed harassment afterwards may well end up being guilty of crimes. a backlash against rolling began in 2020 after she questioned the headline about people who men straight by claiming the meaning of the word. woman being lost. some twitter users took out the mean. she was saying transgender men and women should have fewer rights. she dismissed the claim. political commentator under a worker says, you can't police are only willing to go after crime when it's any police force of any quality can do more or less investigation. i refer you back to the case of the scottish comedian, but taught his dog or his wife's dog how to do

so the variance also came up and then the u. k. one does not look, susan started and spread in india when the level vaccination in india was usually low, very low, it was under 5 percent. and then then so on, on the south africa was again, low vaccination. so it's yes. south africa compared to, let's say there are 3 or bro do, of course that has higher max in asia, south africa to the u. k. all right, no, it has low nation. so look very point how it works in asians in all low middle income country. all right, then we can be course the problem with trying to transition to was in your area. it's basically some people might think this could be an indication we're going back to before the 2020. the problem here is you have the concern that you, how the at risk people you have the patients with complications. and you have to bear in mind that you need to maintain a massive vaccination campaign to be able to tell confident to your own people, you know what we could live with cobra. the way it is in the near future. are we talking about de

u. s. state of texas and the weekend was previously flagged by u. k. authorities, molig face all our chrome, had been seen as a potential islamist terrorist during a 2020 investigation by britons and my 5 and tells you agency. but the u. k. authorities determined that he posed no threat at the time. he was left on record as a person of interest, but was able to fly to the west and by a firearms there. it appears the case already had not relate to any of their concerns about him to their american counterparts before that attack of the alleged perpetrator was killed after an 11 hour stand off at the synagogue in collierville, new suburb of dallas. all of the hostages survived, police in england have detained at 2 teenagers and as part of the ongoing investigation into the attack earlier, my colleague, you know, neil spoke to a former and my 5 intelligence officer who said the incident resulted from a failure on both sides of the atlantic as a failure to levels one is that and i 5, did drop investigation to him and it might well have been because he was

and, you know, the u. k. u s. homeland security act is supposed to be the, precisely to blog people coming in to the us on these grounds. so it's not just my fault, i think, although i do think we have a problem one in the ship holding that information, that guessing she volume of people they have to investigate. but for the u. s. also to have allowed him in, not have called out the u. k. and said, miss mans got conviction, deliver, taste. we can't let him in and send him back. noticing that when you read into it, that he was able just to get a gun like that, a lethal weapon without being on any authorities watch list at all. that just shows an absolute failure on every front face, the intelligence agencies in the u. k. the border security usa policing security in the usa as well. and i think, you know, it's great now that we can pinpoint what happened, what went wrong in this case, but that's not how our intelligence agencies based in the usa. i'm the case working . they all there to preemptively gather inte

and some of them do not want to get on board among them are those behind the u. k. based twitter account sex, not gender, nurses and midwives, which provides a platform for those frustrated with the new terminology to be heard. although the reality is that many health professionals uncomfortable with the language are now working in fear of being ostracized or even worse. losing their jobs, isabel amal, been podcast her and home birth attendant says. the biggest problem in the debate surrounding the use of such terminology is the material consequences. so the 1st time i came across the needs requirements was i do a training in 2016 in brooklyn, new york. and my initial reaction was to go along with it. i couldn't imagine how it would be hurtful to anyone because i was told that it was modern language. it was inclusive language. and we wouldn't want to make anyone feel bad. i think the biggest problem is that there is a material consequence. so pronouns, for example, do not exist in a vacuum. it unfortunately leads to a lifetime of part of pharmaceutical dependence. ki

u. k and then south africa. many other countries don't data. so you actually don't know how many people are affected, how many people are dying, because the data is not really good. and therefore, we can't say, oh, it's not killing people in south africa it's, we just don't know the accurate data. but the important thing is about just like we reached or thing for each 90 percent, other countries need to reach that level. and then i, you know, yes, because one day it was just like fluid stay with, i mean, you know, the world managed to get rid of one virus, only one big one a fix animal, one affects human beings. that's a lot that we only have small box out and everything else we live with. whereas vaccination kids are the ones are vaccinated against measles. but that is, that makes sense. we still haven't gone. right. totally, utterly amazed, or order or polio. so with the vaccination where we're controlling it now for cove, it the fans, we have as a speaker from cambridge said, you know, yes, cup mortality and got the high level of morbidity. y

u. k. and friends me was sort of knock on effect . is that having 1st of businesses in fair critical services, it'll have quite a lot. i mean, one issue will be the workforce. many people will be, as you noted, a, b, b, l or the isolating. it causes other problems as well. terms of the unpredictability of the future. you know, will government be making different restrictions or not very often in the u. k. it's been on very short notice next day. next 48 hours. so that on predictability is very helpful for business as well. and then finally, kind of bringing those 2 things together. getting labor from from abroad has been more difficult with different restrictions between countries. and of course with britain brackets it has kind of made this kind of very difficult cocktail at a very worrying time. and you mentioned that the problem of the unpredictability things for business. is there anything that governments could be doing to be better prepared for this sort of situation? well, i think, you k

and welcome on pete. adobe. you're watching al jazeera live from doe are also coming up the u. k. prime minister boris johnson and hot water again. as media reports on official e mail was sent to his office, wanting him not to hold a party during lockdown last year. the aftermath of toner's volcanic eruption laid bare as the 1st flights carrying aid from new zealand and australia. arrived. plus tahitian treasures and under c discovery reveals a rare coral reef providing a boon for biodiversity. ah, okay, there we are. here we go to germany, where diplomatic efforts are underway to ease tensions between russia and ukraine. the u. s. secretary of state's antony blinkin is in berlin to discuss the crisis in easton ukraine. mister lincoln is speaking to foreign ministers from france, the u. k. and germany, the meeting comes as the president of the european commission is saying, the e u is prepared if russia attacks ukraine. now, new satellite imagery, showing rushes military build up along the border with ukraine, racing fears of an invasion. the kremlin previously said those concern

and know how your top stories on al jazeera, the u. s. secretary of states in germany's disgust the crisis in east and ukraine. you'll speak to ministers from france, the u. k. and germany, russia's mobilizing thousands of troops on its border with ukraine. the president of the european commission says the e u is prepared if russia attacks ukraine. if the situation deteriorates. if there are any further attacks on the territorial integrity of ukraine, we will respond with massive economic and financial sanctions. the trans atlantic community stands firm on this. what abdel hamid has more from kiev, but certainly he's hoping to get a kind of unified a front when it comes to dealing with russia. the moment. dear pins on one side and america and do you are ukraine on the other side? haven't seen eye to eye on a range of topics of 1st 2 for example. oh, how far reaching as should start a sanctions a be against russia if and when they happen? ah, the germany, for example, very worried that any economic sanctions could have an impact on the global financial system. especially when do you s at a certain point was mulling the idea of expelling russia from the swift

and that means the u. k. courts are making determinations about how you know, how the equivalent of the espionage act, the official secrets act operates in this country. and these are questions, but haven't really been tested and they're being forced to be tested through doing case. could someone in the u. k. be tried for publishing information that was true . that was factual in the same way that julian is. and so far the answer has been yes, and this is truly alarming. so i think at the editorial level this is increasingly understood. of course i think the broadcast media could be doing more. i think there's still a lot of failure to understand what's at stake. there should be more configuration like more attention to, to what the experts in the field of press freedom are saying. because i think there's not a proper understanding of the implications in the u. k. i'm really glad you mentioned that, because earlier we spoke to dr. deeper driver who talked about the impact if doing a song, if expedited to the

she doesn't want she, she has to also and the u. k. has to embrace everybody in northern on because they're part of the u. k. so jobs of your question timeline. nobody knows, but something's going to break on this really soon, and i would not be surprised. eventually the e u has everything to lose. because if they make a mess of this, they may encourage other countries just to say, look, you know, it may be messy, but in the long run, we want to do this and look the use being unreasonable. they know that they're walking this time balancing act between trying to keep you together, but not seeming totally, natalie impractical numbers or earned to your point. i mean, what the u. k. gotta do leave again from is alec. that's going to happen. isn't the much worse for that, you know, when it comes to the u. k. beckett really take place here. hillary, forward of the british american business association. thank you so much for joining us today. pleasure. and finally, there has been another massive acquisition in the video game industry as take t

u. k. and, and in america, as we are still in the pandemic, how much of an issue will the pandemic be economically in the next couple of months? so i think, i think we're exiting the pandemic. i think we're renting a phase and where, where most countries are beginning to live with it. obviously europe's been a bit slow on that front for various reasons. just on a slightly different timing cycle, i think versus say the us and u. k. political decisions have been slightly different, but, but by large we're exiting the pandemic. we believe this year. and we should be back to sort of 2019 type levels of, of movement activity and so on. so i, i think the damage is less of a threat that here then ongoing supply chain problems, ongoing chip shortages and ongoing inflation worries. right. wilson chief market analyst at market dot com. thank you for your thoughts. like if my european producers are depend on materials from other parts of the world, continue to deal with disruptions and their supply chains

u. k. or thirties to send migrants to countries such as rwanda and gonna for processing and resettlement. garner has not engaged with the u. k. on any such plan and does not intend to consider any such operation in the future. a similar case took place 3 months ago when albanian and u. k. officials were claimed to be close to striking a deal on a processing center with albanian authorities. likewise, dismissing the reports as being absent neatly untrue this month alone, more than a 1000 migrants are believed to have crossed the english channel from the e. u to british shores expected that this year the number will reach 65000. meanwhile, french president emanuel mac, ron has called on the u. k. government to address the issue by creating legal, safe routes to person speaking to the european parliament. he said the problem, what be solved if the u. k doesn't change it's migration policies. the number of migraines attempting the journey has been growing exponentially in recent years and dozens died. a went missing last year while attempting to cross. on monday, the u. k. home secretary said the co

u. k. and america, millions of cases a week will as many come to this in the law firm since i was shot to the spot to split. that's a great question. and it actually raises the, the issue that there actually 3 gaps. the 1st step is, you know, been, we've been talking about this for the past year is the supply of vaccine get so high income countries preferentially got vaccine? first loan can countries got it and, and are still receiving it. 91 percent of those people living in low income countries have not seen the 1st dose. i've actually the 2nd guy, and this is becoming clear now as faxing supplies becoming less of an issue. is the vaccination yet? so again, just because you have that doesn't mean the country's going to deployed effectively and is that that magical threshold of her protection going to be at 70 percent? probably not. 80 percent. again, we're looking like it may not be you know, 90 to 95 percent. no. or will we ever get there? there are some people are saying, you know, we're go

u. k. being subject to check in response to use and bathroom to the u. k. spoke with sky news about the significance of the northern ireland protocol. the problems arise and we're triggered by brags, it's not by the protocol and the protocol tries to media. it's the serious problems created in northern ireland by the brags and the kinds of brags that that was chosen. so we are focus on solutions. the protocol provides a huge opportunity for not. and i just remember that this is the only territory in the world that has access to both the united kingdom markets, but also to after 1000000000 people market, which is the single market the european unit. so the only tenants in the was so where do we stand as the northern island protocol and article 16 once again, take center stage and post braxton to go see asians will joining us that discusses hillary ford with president a scroll mark, business development consultant, and board member with the british american business association. hillary always pleasure to have you on i it seems like lives trust in setting t
