point in world history. [ applause ] >> in the major centers of world politics, the choice, it would seem, has today been made in favor of peace, cooperation, interaction and overall security. and in pushing forward to a new civilization, we should under no circumstances again make the intellectual and consequently the political error of interpreting victory in the cold war narrowly as a victory for one's self. one's own way of life, one's own values and merits. this was a victory over a scheme for the development of humanity, which is becoming slowly congealed and leading us to destruction. it was a shattering of the vicious circle into which we had driven ourselves. this was altogether a victory for common sense, reason, a victory for democracy, a victory for common human values. [ applause ] >> churchill urged us to think super strategically. meaning by this the capacity to rise above the petty problems and particularities of current realities. focusing on the major trends and being guided by them. what are the characteristics of the world situation today? in thinking over the pro

none of these clash with the general interest of our world agreement, where a world organization, onhe contrary they help it. and my father's house are many specialists oceans between members of the united nations which have no aggressive point against our other country, which harbor no design incompatible with the charter of the united nations, far from being harmful, are the beneficial and, as i believe, indispensable. i spoke earlier of the temple of peace. workman from all countries must build that temple. if two of the workmen know each other particularly well and are old friends, if their families are intermingled, and if they have faith in each other's purpose, hope in each other's future and charity towards each other shortcomings, to quote some good words i read here the other day, why cannot they worked together at the common task as friends and partners? why cannot they share their tools and this increase each other's working powers? indeed they must do or else the temple may not be built, or, being built, it may collapse, and we shall all be proved again unteachable and h

we live in the world that those people come from indonesia, around the world to cuba, world of exploding, desperately in need of land reform, economic reforms in agriculture and setting up industries, and a world sensitive to the point of explosion about the idea held by too many white-skinned people that they are somehow better than dark-skinned people. these are some of the more important things that revolutions are made of today, but communists did not create them. these problems showed up in human affairs before the first bolshevik was out of diapers, and they would be around to spark revolutions in human affairs if every commonest communist -- on earth were to conveniently kick the bucket and die off this minute. communists did not create the stuff that revolutions are made of, but they have fed on that stuff come from russia, the russian revolution come it was not a communist revolution in 1918, but it became one. and nothing did more to keep the communists in business and that country about 40 years ago than the idea described in by this country and others in europe to deal with t

we bear tremendous response buildings in the world -- responsibilities in the world.we are to carry out our responsibilities, we must let people know who we are, what we believe, what we seek as a nation, and we must combat soviet propaganda. this is the job of the united states information agency. each of us is vitally concerned for our national security is at stake. the document you are about to see pictures the problems we face, and how the united states information agency is dealing with them. >> today the greatest threat to peace is the expansionist aims of the kremlin. already, one out of three, 800 million people are prisoners of the iron curtain. outside the soviet, another billion in europe. the e sam farr e start -- the east and far east are threatened. everywhere, our freedom is in jeopardy. a primary tool of soviet expression is propaganda. it is through propaganda that the north koreans were prepared for their attack on south korea. they were saturated with soviet propaganda. by june of 1950, the north koreans were soviet-ized to make an onslaught against

they will do nothing more than that. 80% of the world were 85% of the world is being left out to dry.e idea is there going to places where they have high-paying customers, usually in the form of government from whom they have these huge preorders, madrona posted revenue of billions of dollars so they are doing well out of the strategy. their ideas to limit the production of vaccines to people can afford them to safeguard the relatively new technology of messenger rna platform that they have deployed in this vaccine, to perfect that platform against future exploitation, his future commercial use to the extent it is democratized and therare more people who can manufacture this around the world even in the pandemic -- i think it threatens our ability to exploit the platform in the future. so the idea is to hold this close, to serve in the pandemic those who can pay and pay no mind to anybody who lives outside this tiny handle of countries they're currently serving and doing well for them. amy: as we know from the pandemic, what it has taught us, if nothing else, if one person is sick som

how can the us repair how it is seen around the world?— is seen around the world?seen around the world? i think that question is _ is seen around the world? i think that question is basically - is seen around the world? i think that question is basically chinese propaganda. the chinese communist party want you to believe that america is in decline. that's nonsense. this is a strong nation with deep democratic institutions. the china challenge is probably the biggest _ the china challenge is probably the biggest faced by any us administration since the second world _ administration since the second world war. the balance of power is slowly _ world war. the balance of power is slowly but — world war. the balance of power is slowly but steadily shifting towards beijing _ slowly but steadily shifting towards beijing. the 20 20s are described as the decade _ beijing. the 20 20s are described as the decade of living dangerously in terms _ the decade of living dangerously in terms of— the decade of living dangerously in terms of china —— us relations, because — terms of c

they saw the world in the same way. they had a shared world view. i think they it was a heroic view and it was and it was a view that was increasingly viewed as a defense of civilization under attack from the soviet union and and so he felt he would have an influence on truman if he came also there was a three and a half billion dollar loan that the british were trying to get out of congress. he thought he might have an effect on that and and he thought this would be an opportunity to do that which it turned out to be and of course the part of the scene that that's remarkable about this is is riding with truman and clark clifford and admiral lady and others to on the ferdinand magellan the train that goes from washington to st. louis and they take another train to to fulton. hours of whiskey cigars and poker which churchill had never played. and churchill claim that he deliberately lost to to truman in order to get the loan of course and but evidence from others on the train is that he really didn't know how to play poker and truman absolutely did k

. >> the heads of the world bank and world health organization joined other leaders in looking at challenges facing developing countries and distributing coronavirus vaccines. this is about one hour and 15 minutes. a topic that is very much top of mind that most of us have been affected in one way or another by this global pandemic. i felt the wrath of this pandemic. my father passed away early this year. who would have thought little over a year after the world health organization declared a pandemic that safe and effective covid-19 vaccines would already be used? still, great challenges remain. while the rollout of the vaccine is critical to protecting lives, willing human capital, and stimulating economic recovery, the current crisis is exasperating inequalities around the world. without access to vaccine, the gap will widen further. ensuring developing countries can access, as well as safely distribute vaccines, calls for strong partnership and cooperation. we will be asking how developing countries are preparing for large-scale rollouts of vaccines, and what gaps in access and distribut

this is his first opportunity to be seen, not just by world leaders, but by the world itself. it's a striking contrast because fdr and winston churchill to some degree are cut from the same cloth. they both came from a similar kind of worldview, perspective, whatever you want to say. i think fdr was a man churchill could relate to through some commonalities. harry truman, i don't think churchill was expecting much from him. i think he kind of looked down his nose a little bit. i think it took some time, but if he got to know truman and potsdam, i think he recognized that this guy was up to the task. the big question for truman, everyone in the states would say can he swing the job. i think churchill had the same question. i think it was answered pretty readily. >> and then from potsdam, there was the election. churchill has to go along, because he is out of office. the big three, which had originally been fdr, stalin, and churchill, the only one left is stalin. it's a new cast. there is athlete, truman, and stalin. it's a remarkable to reflect on that leadership change, leader

they know the world and they have engagement around the world as part of their dna.they've seen what american leadership can deliver, but there is no hubris about this. they know that the economic balance of power in the world has changed and that this isn't going to be a world in which america can click its fingers and get what it wants. they form a community of like—minded people who like each other, who aren't intensely competitive with each other, which is very rare at the high levels of american presidential administrations, and who have this kind of camaraderie that i think will make them a particularly effective team. democratic congressmen tom malinowski is a long—time colleague of secretary blinken. they were in a band together and played on the same soccer team. malinowski also served under him at the state department when blinken was deputy. he says already he's seeing a much tougher tone, particularly in their early statements on china. so, they're talking tough now. mm—hm. can they keep it up? i hope so. yes, you have to. because competition with a great

has moved on it is not a eunuch or a world is not even a bipolar world is in multi-polar world and the united states is totally out of step and we lack any of the tools we lack the economic tools we lack the military tools we lack the diplomatic tools to deal with this new reality and so we're just floundering and i think that's what we're seeing with the by administration is american policy 'd floundering because we think we're dealing with you know playing off one rule book one game play the world playing up a different rule book a different game playing we therefore what we want it does not mesh with what the world desires and i don't you know i really like what scott had to say because it's so appropriate but what is he going to take to change that mindset is going to have to take a major conflict where. i mean let's look at. no over the last so instead of the cold war the united states has just punch down on countries that could not defend themselves very well now they want to take on china and russia simultaneously i mean you need a different mindset because all it does is lead t

a world subdued by international law a world made safe and tranquil till the war drum throb no longer and the battle flags were feral. parliament of man the federation of the world they're the common sense of most shall hold a fretful realm in all. kindly earth shall slumber left in universal law nice words not churchillian churchill knew better truman carried this poem when he went to france as an artillery captain in the first world war. he carried the poem in his pocket on april 12th, 1945. when he was suddenly summoned from the us capitol building to the white house. to be told that he had become president. germany became president the month the united states the united nations was born in san francisco. by them however dreams of a world made tranquil by universal law had melted in the cauldron of war. today, we know what churchill never doubted. nations are here to stay. nations about supernational entities or the prime movers of history? and the united states which churchill loved as much as he loved his american mother? is more indispensable than ever? to give just one example.

as take a look at some other stories making headlines around the world now u.s. president joe biden has announced new controls on home gun assembly kits and ownership restrictions biden has called gun violence an epidemic the cubs follow mass shootings in colorado and georgia republicans have attacked the measures as unconstitutional. iran has freed a south korean oil tanker it seems in january tehran had demanded the transfer of a 7 of $7000000000.00 being held in seoul because of u.s. sanctions it's not known whether any payment was made to ship sailed out as before international talks over iran's nuclear program and. indonesia's navy has delivered rain relief supplies to regions hit by authorities declared a state of emergency after storms devastated several communities over 200 people have been killed more bad weather is for cost. demonstrators in northern ireland petrol bombs at police and set fires as sectarian violence spreads crowds have ignored appeals for calm tensions have been fueled by trade barriers which came in when britain left the european union

the world has never done anything quite like this before. this is a moment that calls for american leadership. now, the biden/harris administration's main focus has been to vaccinate americans to slow and stop covid here at home. we at the state apartment have been focused on vaccinating our workforce in the united states and embassies and consulates around the world. that has been the right call. we serve the american people first and foremost. plus, we can't forget the united states has had the highest number of covid cases of any country in the world by a significant margin. so stopping the spread here has been urgently needed for our people and for the world. we have a duty to other countries to get the virus under control here in the united states. but soon, the united states will need to step up our work and rise to the occasion worldwide because only by stopping covid globally will americans be safe for the long-term. we want to rise to the occasion for the world by helping bring to a close one of the deadliest pandemics in human hist

big questions for the imf and world bank and the world's financiers. alix: great set up, mike. eu and british health regulators holding simultaneous news briefings on the safety of the vaccine. astra's shot is one touted to help emerging economies. joining us now is world bank president david malpass. the regulator seems to be backing astrazeneca, but they are looking into possible links between blood clots and the vaccine. how much does emerging market recovery depend on the vaccine? are you worried? david: thanks for the set up on that. yes, i am worried that there needs to be a lot more growth for the developing world, especially the poorest countries. vaccines will be a critical part of that. what the world bank is doing is having vaccination programs in lots of countries. we need to get started with a vaccines arriving in the poor countries because it is going to take a long time for them actually to get the vaccination process done. they only have a certain number of vaccinators. one thing we did last year was an assessment of all of the country's readiness. now we are pr

what happened during world war ii?

none of these clash with the general interest of a world agreement or a world organization. on the contrary they help it. in my father's house are many mansions. special associations between members of the united nations, which have no aggressive point against any other country, which harbor no design incompatible with the charter of the united nations, far from being harmful, are beneficial, and i believe indispensable. i spoke earlier, ladies and gentlemen, of the temple of peace, workmen from old countries must build that temple. the workmen know each other particularly well and our old friends. the families have mingled. if they have faced each other, charity towards each other's shortcomings. to quote some good words i read the other day. why cannot they work together as friends and partners? why can they not share their tools and thus increase each other's working powers? indeed, they must do so. or else the temple may not be built. or being built, it may collapse. and we should all be proved again unteachable and have to go and try to learn again for a third time in a

they travel the world.at the moment with pictures we only want to de—shock, not to shock. sorry, you wanted to what? to de—shock. what do you mean by...? to take the shock element out of it, to make it a normality that we can live with. not that anyone has to throw up the arms in fear and... just to get normal about things, yes. the germans would say, "why do you want to be provocative?" we never wanted to be provocative... because that would be very superficial. that'd be shallow. if you were just simply trying to evoke a shock... of course... ..that really wouldn't get us very far. we never, we never wanted to do that. we like to provoke thought, but not to be provocative — a very subtle difference. so, when you did that exhibition, which focused on your own faeces... we did two groups of pictures... ..what was the deeper meaning? we had enormous, enormous support for these pictures. and we still have. imean... there's nothing in our pictures which is not also in the holy bible. it's not so shocking. yes.

this week on the world story. in russia the kremlin takes aim at tick tock and confronting racism in germany's catholic church but we begin in turkey where on carra has set a goal of vaccinating 60 percent of its population against coronavirus by autumn which means reaching the more remote parts of the country. almost 2000 meters high up in the mountains lies the village of alton that in eastern turkey a few 100 residents one street. and this is the doctor in charge of the coronavirus vaccinations here in the village. they nip at olive and her team come regularly many home visits require some serious climbing but they're almost used to it now. no coronavirus cases have been reported in 4 months that's why some residents are skeptical about the doctor's visit but they know better all of this convinced that her commitment is important. people in the villages live close together if there is an infection here it will spread very quickly and many don't like coming to the hospitals in nearby towns so we have to come to

it's kind of a rarity in our world. what's happening, people have been studying the brain over 120 years seriously and they've been publishing papers on all aspects of the brain for all that time. thousands of papers published every year. most of the data, a comical data so on, most of the data is on a simulated into any framework. here's what we found in this they look like this in their connected here but what are they doing? we don't know yet. they don't know so you have this huge amount of empirical data not stimulated into anything so we study that in detail. it's not like, we want to know exactly how they are working so any theory that comes up, the reason why it's empirical data, when we come up with a new theory, new idea, the reference or i use this so let's stick with that one, we can go into the literature and find out what people have experiment in the past and test theories by going back and reading old papers and say that there isn't right because of this, here's supporting data and things like that. then

is vaccinated, the whole world will be at risk. the longer that the world lets the virus run free to in fact end to mutate, the more likely they will face a prolonged crisis, and none of us wants to see that happen. we are in a race against the covid-19 virus, and the virus continue to win unless we ask decisively. before we began, i am happy to welcome close to 800 attendees who are with us at this time from across 100 countries and we anticipate another couple thousand who are with us on facebook. we also ask that if you wish to submit questions during the course of this discussion that you are welcome to do so using the question-and-answer feature on your screen, just know your name and affiliation and to whom you are directing your question. i can think of no better person to start this conversation then the doctor with us today who is president of the rockefeller foundation and he previously served as the administration of international development. where he led the u.s. response to the pandemic to fight against hunger around

the world needed americans. in the 1946 world of shattered nations, there were things that only the united states could do. the recent american secretary of state madeline allbright referred to the united states as the indispensable nation. the first thing only the united states could do was begin the repairing of the shattered nations. this began the next year with the announcement of the marshall plan. two world wars, perhaps we should say the 20th century 30-year war, raised a question about the future of nations themselves. 11 months before churchill spoke here the united nations had been born in san francisco. there was much talk about the possibility of the world moving beyond nation states. there had been similar talk after the first world war when the league of nations began its short unhappy life. churchill had a romantic attachment to ancient nations, not just his own. the man from western missouri who brought churchill to westminster college 75 years ago had earlier in his life been fascinated by the

the sport was already popular there before world war 2 yugoslavia played at the 1st 2 world cup in europe why 1930 they even reached the semifinal. after world war 2 the country became communist but soon fell out with the soviet union it shows a 3rd way between communism and capitalism so you can slowly also look the west toward in many ways. also when it came to football as long as you need cold war experience. is really one of the reasons why. another factor in that succession that you need is the. regime invest in whole point of yugoslavia really has cutting edge holes in the structure this paid off yugoslavia reached the world cup quarter finals in 19541958. they won the olympics in 1960 and came in 4th at the 962 world cup they make the finals of euro 960 and 60 a. remarkable success of being a country of 20000000 inhabitants only. at club level yugoslavia's big 4 had established themselves as powerhouses the numbers are good at the kind of splits and belgrade sides red star and parties on their youth academies produced outstanding talent like a kind of can the creation coastal town

3rd in this stuff that you see in another country it's a 3rd world 3rd world 3rd world country country so what gives why is the term so contested well for starters it has a very specific long expired content the term originated in the 1950 s. to map out cold war alliances the 1st world consists of the the capitalist bloc led by the us the 2nd world was a communist bloc led by the soviet union the 3rd world and capsulated the nonaligned countries which the superpowers competed to influence so 3rd world originated around now defunct political life. today the term is stripped of its new wants and loaded with offensive connotations it's used to invoke images of extreme poverty civil unrest and crumbling infrastructure producing a false sense of superiority as if those issues are now happening in the so-called 1st world a quick glance at several indicator shows just how unfettered from reality a 1st world person 3rd world dichotomy really is taking coming in according to the world bank the united states is the 51st most unequal in the world sandwiched between djibouti to cote d'ivoire to au

as the number one sport table tennis enjoys world class backing in china. look at the chinese women steyn 40 players in total but only 5 of them will go to the major tournament the other $35.00 players are just kind of training partners. and a fair number of them will switch to another country as a result table tennis is the world's leading sport when it comes to naturalized. in rio they comprise 31 percent of entrants while the figure for judo was 11 percent. qatar is one of the various countries using financial incentives to attract new recruits the success of foreign born athletes suddenly representing turkey has also been controversial. the african national ethics chief responded the present situation is wrong what we have is a wholesale market for african talent open to the highest bidder the world governing body has now amended the rules to prevent athletes switching in. legion's overnight. is an olympic winning javelin thrower and an official athlete representative. world athletics the old i really tighten things up creating new stipulations for both

japanese veteran of world war ii also wanted a place to exhibit their story of world war ii. and this buddhist temple first built way back in 1925 was vacant and they got in contact with the city and were able to lease it out for 50 years for one dollar a year. so the little tokyo businessman and the veterans. incorporated 1985 and they were able to open up the japanese american national museum in 1992 in this old buddhist temple. this temple is a replica from a temple and kyoto japan, but the canopy is made original ones made of wood here. it's made of concrete and the architect. mcclellan was first time builder buddhist temple, he was a specialist in making public schools, so we're not sure how and why he had this northern wall that's not japanese that's middle easterners, but way back in 1925, maybe that's when the king tut's tomb was recovered and also in hollywood. we had the egyptian theater built then so maybe in theme with the egyptian theme that he made the egyptian wall here. this is the gateway to little tokyo home his little tokyo and this depict what happened her

this truth holds around the world. so i urge all of us to focus on these communities, including indigenous communities, and consider their insight and experience in our efforts moving forward. they are critical leaders in this fight. friends, the health of our community, the well being of our workers, and the strength of our economies depend on what we do now. and i can think of no one more committed to achieving our collective goals than president joe biden. the president was one of the first members in the united states congress to take on the issue of climate change. on our first day in office, he led the fact that we'd rejoin the paris agreement. and the president is just getting started as we work to tack until crisis, while creating clean energy jobs across our nation. it is now my great honor to introduce the president of the united states, owe biden. pres. biden: thank you, madam vice president. good morning to all our colleagues around the world, the world leaders taking part in this summit. i thank you. you k

an art act as a mediator between the real world and digital reality it's as if we're living in 2 worlds at the same time. in one that is visible in which we can take a train go shopping meet other people. and another in which we are monitored and algorithms make decisions for us. artificial intelligence systems collect data and arrange the world who profits who loses out. imagine you're walking down a street and if you're an older woman you know you only see certain stores and certain options businesses but if you're a younger man you see lots and you see a totally different street and that's very much what i was you know having nightmares about you know the street that i would walk down as a black woman in germany might be entirely different than the street that you know friends family members are able to walk down because they're male because why because they're not. what can our do to fight discrimination what role can it play just out i think that has a great strength it can make things accessible i think that it's extremely important because our society is so influenced by artifici

rest of the world counter 85%. that's why can't my commitment to rejoin the paris accord because if we do everything perfectly. it's not going to we matter. i kept my commitment to convene the climate summit right here in america. of all the major economies of the world. russian indeed european union. i said i do my first 100 days. want to be very blunt about it. i had. attempt was to make sure. that the world could see there was a consensus. we are inflection point in history. you can consensus is if we act to save the planet. we can create millions of jobs. and economic growth and opportunity to raise the standard of living most everyone around the world. if you watch and even you're all busy, i'm sure much time. that's what virtually every nation said. even the ones that aren't doing their fair share. the investments i propose the night. also advance of foreign policy. my view the benefits, the middle class. that means making sure every nation plays by the same rules in the global economy, including china. my di

do we think the rest of the world is waiting around? we are not going to make those investments, the rest of the world is saying. take a look. do you think china is waiting around to invest in its digital infrastructure or research and development? i promise you, they are not waiting. but, they are counting on american democracy to be too slow, too limited, and too divided to keep pace. you have heard me say it before. i think this generation can be marked by the competition between democracies and autocracies, because the world is changing so rapidly. the autocrats are betting on democracy not being able to generate the unity needed to make decisions to get in that race. we can't afford to prove them right. we have to show the world. much more important, we have to show ourselves that democracy works. that we can come together on the big things. this is the united states of america for god's sake. building the infrastructure of tomorrow requires investments today. i am open to ideas about how to pay for this plan with one exception. i
