Reports from washington. President tran convened what was billed as a proxy summit just days before the f. D. A. Is q. To decide on whether to grant an emergency use authorization for the 1st of 2 vaccines and it appears the president is intent on claiming credit for the unprecedented tapes of the fax seems development were just days away from authorization from the f. D. A. And were pushing on the heart that which point we will immediately begin mass distribution before operation warp speed the typical time frame for development that approval has you know. Could be infinity and we were very very happy that we were able to get things done at a level that nobody has ever seen before surmount representatives from pfizer and lerner in their Companies Awaiting if the approval would not be present at the meeting submit strip or start the transfer administration declined to take up an option with pfizer for an extra 100000000. 00 doses earlier this year confirmed by a former f. D. A. Commissioner whos now on pfizers board i think theyre betting that more than one vaccine is going to get off the rise no be more vaccines on the market and that perhaps could be why they didnt take up that additional 100000000. 00 option agreement which really one of required necessarily even to front money it was just an agreement that they would purchase those vaccines President Trump signed an executive order aimed at preventing the export of vaccines from the u. S. Before all americans have been treated an order that would appear to be an enforceable given the International Contracts both pfizer and mcdonough have signed. Another figure absent from the white house meeting with the countrys foremost infections diseases expert to be found hell pursue had another greengage Material School a little meeting with the president elect to ensure hes been asked to advise. I look forward to advising you on these most urgent priorities and to work with this team of world class experts whom i have known for many years and deeply respect i have been through Many Public Health crises before but this is the toughest one we have ever faced as a nation dr fox she was on the high powered Advisory Team introduced by joe biden this team will help get at the latest at the last 100000000 covert 19 vaccine at least 100000000 covert vaccine shots into the arms of the American People in the 1st 100 days 100000000 shots in the 1st 100 days all eyes now on the food and Drug Administration which is likely to complete its review of the application for merchants to use authorization by the end of the week mike hanna aljazeera Washington Well campaigners are warning that 9 out of 10 people in nearly 70 poor countries will not get the vaccine next year the Peoples Vaccine Alliance says rich nations are hoarding vaccines buying up enough doses to inoculate their population several times over the alliances a coalition that includes oxfam Amnesty International thats going to dr sanjay. Is here is an associate professor for Infectious Diseases at the Australian National university hes joining us from cambra thanks for your time so should we be surprised by this news that governments are really looking inward when it comes to this vaccine or are they right to be looking out for their own citizens. Yes hello i dont think we should be surprised and i think theres a bit of going both d ways in terms of the fact that yeah look at governments 1st responsibility is to explain a show and in fact if you do look at some of the richest nations in the world theyre the ones who are having enormous problems but cope with it the moment the us is having over 200000 cases a days its 7 day rolling average regularly having 2000 deaths today the u. K. Is. Similarly dire situation which is why theyre rolling up their Vaccine Program so quickly so a lot of these rich countries actually do need to do something and the population expense of them however as hot of the Global Community which is on 41 reason why kind of it spread so weakly globally through tourism and training cetera we have a responsibility to look up to now our fellow nations in the world and as i stand because of trade and Tourism Business sent to the rich countries to make sure that code it does get stamped out and controlled in the world but as bad a enough incentive you think for a for these rich countries. Not perhaps not and i think it will be very important for countries who are having difficulties accessing these vaccines to lobby as they could do in groups of leaders from Asian Countries or african countries to make sure their voices are heard loud and clear that they want fair i think that it will access through the spec scenes and of course bring it out for a like the media group also helps but i think it is an important thing to do now we look at countries like canada the usa and australia so the usa has got can potentially dose purchases of vaccine about 2600000000 doses which is probably enough to immunize the population 4 times over canada has thought about potentially board about just over 414000000. 00 doses of vaccine which is enough to ignite the population about 5 times over in australia about almost 3 times over so there is an opportunity right now the Peoples Vaccine Alliance is also calling on pharmaceutical corporations who have been working on the cohead 1000 vaccine to kind of share their technology and their ip and their know how how likely is it that how likely will that how likely is it that will happen excuse me considering the fact that these pharmaceutical companies have rather spend billions of dollars manufacturing this vaccine. Yeah look i dont know how likely that this didnt happen youre referring to the code that 90 technology writes full well Health Organization im veiled about 6 months ago i think i think at that time and i think its very relevant now pfizer c. E. O. Is on record as saying that he wasnt very keen on the program as were some others and a lot of the developed nations where these companies are established werent keen on it either because of course if youre sharing all this intellectual property then potentially theres a loss in income but i guess my argument is were not asking them to do it for everything that theyre producing but just the things related to cove d it so i still think it is an option worth considering all right well leave it there thank you very much for speaking to us from canberra thank you. Strict Health Measures have been in force the polling stations across indonesia as tens of millions of people voted in Regional Elections and uneasy has the worst covert 1000 outbreak in Southeast Asia where the more than 5580000 recorded cases and 18000 deaths doctors are worried that a large voter turnout will make matters worse the elections had already been delayed once the Us Supreme Court has rejected a last ditch attempt by republicans to reverse joe bidens elects world victory in the battleground state of pennsylvania on the states results has been certified in favor of biden and in a one line state and the Supreme Court refused to call these certification process into question at the rails an attempt by Donald Trumps Republican Party to have as many as 2 and a half 1000000 votes dismissed or even has a Supreme Court deliverance that ruling against the Republican Party trump earlier said he is hopeful you will remain president s.

Well that while the mood music ahead of this meeting between Boris Johnson and us live on the land later on of the day a formal dinner we gather hasnt been all that great Michel Barnier the chief negotiator said on tuesday that he felt that the prospect of a no deal breaks it is looming ever closer saying that it is down to the Prime Minister now to try and get things moving again if he is successful it means that potentially we can talk about setting a new date for the resumption of negotiations to try and get this trade deal over the over the line but weve said this a 1000000 times time of course is running out theyve only got a couple of weeks to do this to be able to make sure any trade deal this ratified in every single government and every single e. U. Member state on tuesday though there was some positive movement but to do with a completely separate deal altogether to do with the movement of goods between Northern Ireland part of the u. K. And our public of ireland and the e. U. Member that is kind of crucial really to be able to send the right kind of messages when it comes to resuming talks all into being deeply worried that the British Government would backtrack on some of the details agreed in the Withdrawal Agreement as the 1st part of the breaks a deal signed and sealed in january now that that problem seems to be pushed aside the focus now can be put back on how wring out a trade deal but there are in some mountable challenges it seems at the moment the question is can boris d johnson get things moving again all right thank you for that update from london.

Hello again the top stories on aljazeera the u. S. President elect joe biden has laid out how he plans to bring america spiraling corona Virus Outbreak under control as infections passed 15000000 hes promising 100000000 vaccine shots within his 1st 100 days in office. Campaigners are warning that 9 out of 10 people in nearly 70 poor countries will not get the vaccine next year the Peoples Vaccine Alliance says rich countries are bought out doses to inoculate their entire populations nearly 3 times over. Strict Health Measures are in place at polling stations across indonesia as around a 100000000 people vote in local and Regional Elections with the worst coronaVirus Outbreak in Southeast Asia some Health Experts are worried a large voter turnout will make things worse. The mining giant rio tinto is being told it should be a compensation for the destruction of sacred indigenous heritage sites in australia the company blew up caves despite warnings of their cultural significance and australian parliamentary inquiry has been investigating the companys actions in the pilbara region as well as the fines the government is also considering stopping mining in the area nicola gage is joining us from camera what more did the report say nicola. Well the report had 7 broad recommendations the main was one was if the government does approve these recommendations that rio tinto media in the area where these sacred caves were destroyed and puts together negotiates a restitution package with the traditional one as it was pretty it didnt mince its words when it came to rio tinto though it said that its actions here were inexcusable and raise significant significant issues with the culture and practices within the Mining Company and said that internal changes were needed as well it said that the p. K. K. Paypal the traditional owners were totally let down by radio but they were let down by multiple governments station federal native title law and even their own lawyers this really was a situation of a perfect storm where they sacred thoughts were able to be destroyed so what happens next will compensation be paid. Thats a really good question at the moment those Committee Men busy on this palm entry inquiry have said that they all accept these recommendations this is only an interim report well have to say what happens next but every state and territory actually has its own mining act and Western Australia where these caves are has its oil in which its dating at the moment but in terms of rio tinto it has apologized saying that this should never have to have it could and its trying to make up to the traditional one is so i will have to say what decisions get made here but we do need to remember that what he did was legal there was nothing actually wrong with it it did receive approval in 2013 to destroy these caves but it was a year later the it was discovered that remains in this cave went back 46000 years and it was actually fall more significant than it was realised when it was given approval so there really needs to be some changes in terms of. The law and heritage laws in a stroller and thats what we will be seeing hopefully these recommendations all right nicola thank you very much for that update from canberra south Koreas National Assembly is set to vote on whether to ban people from sending anti pyongyang material across the border north korean defectors and other activists have been flying leaflets and other materials inside balloons towards the north the Main Opposition Party says it will do everything it can to slow the legislation rob mcbride has more from seoul. It is controversial legislation but it is a very contentious issue here in south korea these are defectors who are based in south korea who form groups who then send across these propaganda messages attacking the north korean leadership either on balloons that float across the Demilitarized Zone or in these plastic bottles into waterways rivers and coastal waters in the hope that they get washed up on the korean beaches now and always in rages north korea north korea always accusing south korea of not doing enough to try to prevent these sorts of action taking place and things really came to a head this summer when relations really deteriorated across the d. M. Z. We had to the North Koreans cutting communication lines and even destroying an into Korean Liaison Office so south korea mindful of the fact that they want to try to keep dialogue on track and keeping gaging with north korea has been using various local laws and various measures to try to stop these controversial activities but now its actually putting it into a national law which is quite serious stuff it makes it illegal to launch these propaganda balloons a 3 Year Prison Sentence and thousands of dollars in fines but as far as the defectors are concerns it violates their rights to free speech here in south korea.

Kurdistan is supposed to get a share of the Central Governments budgets to cover Public Sector salaries but baghdad has refused to pay up because kurdistan is selling its oil independently rather than for the Central Government kurdish politicians say theyre being denied a constitutional right. There is a constitution in place and let it be the judge between us and iraq therefore this issue should be within the framework of the constitution but the Iraqi Government owes the could the star region billions of dollars.
