Its a team that reflects the fact that america is back ready to lead the world. Not retreat from joe biden is moving quickly to fill all key positions in his administration. Now that donald trump has stopped blocking the transition, also coming up germany prepares for a stricter lockdown as head of christmas. Regional leaders reach consensus. New measures aimed at slowing the search in new cases of conflict, 19 and scotland votes to give all women free access to sign a free product becoming the 1st nation in the world to do so on pablo foley, s. Welcome to the program, u. S. President elect. Joe biden has introduced 6 key members of his cabinet and each has decades of experience in their particular field. He said, diplomacy and multilateralism are back and his new team will lead by example. The transition to a Biden White House is picking up speed after President Trump cleared the way for a transfer of power. 3 weeks after the election, the trumpet ministration has finally given president elect joe biden, the green light to begin the transition process. President donald trump personally directed his administration to cooperate in the handover, but he has yet to officially concede defeat. Instead, he pardoned it took in the white house rose garden as part of a thanksgiving tradition. I have your back grant you a 4 card. He also used the opportunity to remind americans what he stands for. As i say, america 1st should go away from that america 1st president elect joe bidens nominations for the top posts of his cabinet point in a very different direction. It way from trumps america 1st doctrine and towards diversity and multilateralism work. Its a team that reflects the fact that america is back ready to lead the world, not retreat from it. Once again sit at the head of the table. Bidens choices are policy veterans like his longtime adviser, anthony blinken, named to secretary of state. We cant solve all the worlds problems alone. We need to be working with other countries, we need their cooperation. The best known of the nominees is former secretary of state john kerry, poised to become bidens Climate Change envoy. In this crisis, the whole world must come together. Youre right to rejoin paris on day one. I expect that we are a former Federal Reserve chair. Janet yellen is the service treasury secretary. Shes trusted in the financial world. And if confirmed, she would be the 1st woman to take over. This pivotal role with optimism about new coronavirus vaccines spreading and political uncertainty, seemingly diminishing. The dow surged past 30000 points for the very 1st time on tuesday. So i think people like the cabinet post were seeing from biden, they like the idea that this sort of long period of uncertainty about how much difficulty week see an outgoing Trump Administration make. I think people like that thats over i think people like janet yellen as an idea for a new treasury secretary, shes a known quantity, was pretty able set of hands and a tough moment for everybody. President trump quickly claim the latest market rally as the fruit of his own administrations work. But the markets seem to be banking on the current u. S. Leader, being on his way out of office. Well, for more on this, lets cross over to washington where our correspondent Stephanie Simons is standing by for us. Hi stephanie. Now joe biden has nominated some political veterans. Now, what can we expect from his administration . As mentioned in the report, you can absolutely expect the counter process and the counter design of what are you believe, doll trump, and all tribes policies as well as administration stood for. So i think the bottom line is, is the difference that america is as is the blink is said, bank at the table. And that means basically that the us is going to want to lead again. And that also requires, of course, that this administration, the Incoming Administration understands that america actually needs to lead again, this is something, of course, arguably the trumpet was ration in the eyes of many experts and observers here never acknowledge they didnt want to lead. They want america 1st, focusing on domestic jobs and economy. And with that, leave Everything Else in front of the door. Speaking global terms, this is going to change absolutely dramatically, but make no mistake. To put this in context, the by the administration and they know that the incoming by administration would be absolutely ill advised if they focus only on International RelationsGlobal Global cooperation with allies. It is also very important for this administration. You will see that in the coming days when he introduces other cabinet picks, it is also absolutely critical that he keeps a little bit of this america 1st american jobs economy focused. Dont forget, 12000000, americans are still without a job due to covert to do to the covert 1000 crisis. So certainly its going to look a little bit different will say, to the trumpet ministration. I biden has chosen a very diverse cabinet for a what can only be described as a very divided nation. How do you think thats going to play . Can they unite the country . I think this, i think they think they can and i think there is a surely the end an Analysis Shows that this is they think the only way they can do this. Where are you really dont trump and hit ministration was decisive. And polarizing people, they trying joe biden and his administration here proven by those picks and by probably others to, to come. They are trying to counter concept here again diverse, a multitude of very, very experienced people but from different walks of lives. And that will bring, hopefully they think america together, and that is absolutely critical. Youre absolutely right. Well, what a President Trump, because well be making coal to president elect joe biden, to congratulate him on his victory. Because at the moment its sort of very young, clear what exactly his next steps may be. Yeah, i think thats pushing it a little bit. I dont expect, and i dont know anybody who would expect president donald trump, to pick up the phone and feel the correct call to president elect joe biden. He didnt even concede the only thing the president did today, for example, was a 32nd News Conference where he said the dow jones hit a record high. Thank you all because i did this, then this press conference was over and the 2nd biggest thing he did today, he pardoned a turkey. This is a light hearted tradition at the white house today was pardoning day for the turkey where the thanksgiving holiday coming up here. So that was as far as donald trump went today, is i think a very, very, very high possibility that he will not call president elect, and he will not ever use the word conceit, Steffen Simons in washington. Thanks for that update. Well, lets take a look now at some other stories that are making headlines. This hour. Heathy opium writes body says that a local youth group, aided by police and militia killed at least 600 people in iran page in the tikrit region. On north. On november 9th, the Ethiopian Human Rights Commission said members of a group called summary, carried out the massacre in the town of protesters have gathered in central paris to oppose a security bill. Frances lower house is the house of parliament approved the changes that will make a criminal offense to post photos of Police Officers online in some cases. And legislation is being criticized by activists and journalists. The leaders of germanys 16 federal states have reportedly agreed to extend coronavirus lockdown measures into december and possibly into the new year. The shutdown targets, hotels, restaurants, and gyms, tighter restrictions on socializing will also remain in place. The exceptions are being made for holiday celebrations. Just last week, chancellor Angela Merkel had called for tougher measures in some aspects of the countrys lockdown, but it was met with resistance. The pressure is on for the German Government to ease restrictions for the most important time of the year for many christmas celebrations. Right. Know beilin stand down and Market Square would usually be packed with people and show you the christmas market. Its been canceled. People will be allowed to gather at home for christmas, but in smaller groups, many accept the reality that this year is different. Theres going to be naturally some push. Its national, its going to happen, but it is what it is. You know its, theres no policy thats ever going to be 100 percent approach. I believe in god. I dont understand why restriction would be east for christmas. Perhaps one should stick to them, but i also see what happens with people when they are lonely and happy. So i cant say much about it, but i just talk about it because i also see how it is in hospitals. Thats where i work. All. Yes, its sad not to celebrate christmas as usual, but how else the measures taken are important and necessary . And does always types always see the decision on christmas is expected to become firmed wednesday following talks between state premiers and chancellor Angela Merkel. The overall situation remains critical. Soon as you have High Expectations as a parliamentary group, until now we have begun to see a short trend of lower figures in terms of inspections, which means the exponential growth could be stopped. But thats not enough. We need, its christmas time it in for our christmas isnt the only separation thats on the line. Many say that the much loved tradition of new years eve, fireworks needs to be reined in. But a nationwide ban on fireworks sales does not appear to be on the cards. Scotland has voted to make period products free to all women becoming the 1st nation in the world. To do so, the Scottish Parliament voted unanimously to approve the measure which guarantees that anyone unable to pay for time on unsanitary pods can access them for free. Those spearheading the landmark bill say they hope it will consign period poverty to history. Joining me now to discuss this is d. W. Reporter, matthew moore, author you. This is a huge move on many levels right now. Exactly. Its an important milestone for a number of reasons which will probably get to talk about it today. But i mean, just to sum up, the person who sponsored this bill described as a proud day for scotland and she did so because scotland as we had become the 1st country in the world to make some history products free. At the point about access to anyone who needs them and in scotland has kind of been a trailblazer in this, in this era, 28, scotland made sanitary products available in universities and schools. But this goes a step farther and says that the Scottish Government has a legal responsibility to make sure that people at anyone its not means tested, can access sanitary products in a public space. What might be in a pharmacy or a Council Building or gym. And it cost the reckon will cost about 10000000. 00 euros in the region every year. And the point is that period, poverty well period, as youve just mentioned, it will break it down for us. How significant will this be for women who are struggling to pay for period Care Products . Hugely significant. Youve got the, i think the argument goes women are disadvantaged in a way that in a way that men arent. So theres the financial burden that girls and women have to have to face and to manage purely because the women didnt have a choice, but they have that women and they have periods in the front of the money every month with an extra financial outgoing which upon the end of this, a lot of estimates on this and varies around the world, but as anywhere is a run 15 euros, it can be 15 euros per month. And over the course of a lifetime, not to be thousands of euros. And that would have to pay that men dont. So this is about trying to kind of address the unfairness to help women who are, who are on the kind of the bread line who are low income women who upon. And this is a study that the u. S. Reckons that is about 42000000 american women who have are in period poverty, but they cant purchase the cant buy that. All of the money to buy the products that if we remove well, briefly do you think it could actually lead to other areas around the world . Yeah, i think that, i mean, i think the big hope is that the shift, the debate moves away from being something that we didnt talk about a tall to something that we can talk about and that we can hopefully kind of make advances in the future.
