S. And the taliban signed a. Peace which many hope will pave the way of peace negotiations. And a story been keeping an eye on another 2000 cases of coronavirus around the world have been confirmed in the past day here in russia medical services are on a lot especially in key cities where arrivals from the most affected nations are required to self isolate for 2 weeks one of the other effect being seen worldwide is shoppers emptying shelves to stock up calls on essential zz in australia the media is being accused of whipping up hysteria with some stores rationing toilet paper after rush of panic buying. Elves stripped bare is a straw is prepare for a Pandemic Take a look at this we went out to take a look for ourselves yesterday and there wasnt a toilet roll in saw a movie panic something is happening all over the country the great soil of paper pad it is in full cry shoppers swarming stores and clearing shelves of. As coronavirus called one a straight a newspaper even after 8 of its pages empty suggesting its readers use them as an alternative to toilet paper with more on the supermarket on store around the wild has. Its called hamster colorful in german literally translates as hamster buying but it doesnt mean that people here were leaning across the federal republic of being stocking up on adorable Furry Friends it means theyve been panicked by essentially in fear of the coronavirus empty shelves in supermarkets across berlin have become a common sight as people hoard fresh fruit and vege as well as nonperishable goods like pastor rice toilet paper Hygiene Products and other basics of being flying off the shelves as people prepare for potential self isolation as the code 90 crisis spreads around the world while emergency testing tents of being set up at hospitals to identify those with the virus the German Government is being giving its assessments of the current situation. Means you know chinas coronavirus outbreak has become a Global Pandemic is always a question of finding the right balance on the one hand between the restrictions necessary to contain the virus and on the other enabling every day life to continue whats clear is that we have not yet reached the peak of the outbreak its not just the muse systems that the viruses be attacking the economy is also taking a real pounding the German Airline lufthansa is canceled hundreds of. Flights with around 150 Aircraft Carrier grounded the German Economy one of the most robust in europe is facing the real possibility of sliding into recession we asked people here on the streets of pearlie whether they are afraid of the virus wide of an issue and the one that the supermarkets have been blunted and you take what you can carry in order to have something at home as a fact as i will wait for a bit its important not to be so hysterical. Fabric that is there greasy i mean once you have a small staggered home which would last for 14 days supply in some food and again food is all right but there are a familiar i think its massively exaggerated im not doing penny buying and in my usual Grocery Shopping it would be nice if others who did the same then you would not need to drive to multiple stores you might be the mule and that there is an epidemic many people die every year and now we have this corona virus there so its absolutely sickening in a silly which is being the hardest hit in europe all schools and universities have been closed for 2 weeks in an attempt to stop the spread of the virus panic buying is also being seen in the United Kingdom where theres also huge economic concerns over the impact in a nation with a poultry system of sick pay compared to other European Countries it could see some force to survive on just over 100 year old week the reality is we dont know what is going to happen next with this new virus the best advice we have is to avoid panicking practice good hand washing hygiene and avoid touching our faces be sure all of us are see the. Clouds of tear gas are backed up this friday along some of the border between greece and turkey both countries are firing canisters in the increasingly fractious deadlock over of course the swelling numbers of migrants trying to get into the. New. This video that youre looking at now accusing turkey of dropping take us using drones some refugees managed to use the lack of visibility to make it across the border thousands began heading for that you saw several days ago to turkey claimed it could no longer contain them right now many are staying at a makeshift camp along the border and the numbers are continuing to grow and spark shot to deepen scares being in the thick of it and she looks next at how both sides are you willing the situation. Greece and turkey have long had an acrimonious relationship now is greece feels its borders are under attack this time by migrants leaving turkey sparks are flying on the ground here is where the battle lines are being drawn but perhaps the real conflict is being fought through the power of the news and social media with both sides labeling claims and counterclaims as fake. Turkey has accused greece of using live ammunition killing and injuring my quince who are trying to cross the greek police and border units have fired plastic bullets and live ammunition on migrants waiting between the cash dannys impassive border gate the 5 men who were wounded had been shot in the food growing head and chest by live bullets. Turkish state media even says it has evidence of violence perpetuated by greece. And that is the type of Excessive Force which the green Border Police is using there you started using live ammunition on refugees and migrants be to be people of archippus give us the turkish side creates and disperse this fake news targeted against greece today they created yet another such false whod at that we have injured migrants and one dead a sample of the fire i categorically deny that it would be turkey also claims that those trying to cross this border are Syrian Refugees but greek Authorities Say the majority are from countries such as afghanistan from pakistan from morocco on social media videos purporting to show migrant crossings are circulating as click bait it is a wall of words they have borders and they have the right to protect them the greeks have been europes shield for much longer than most people realize ever since there has been islam. The e. U. Is fighting against refugees turkey is fighting to protect refugees it seems the world is divided over who is at fault here although one side turkey is apparently dumping migrants and forcing them to cross the border on the other hand greece is allegedly using brute force to repel them both accuse the other of using tear gas as a weapon to fight the push migrants towards or away from the border but as the war of fake news is playing out on the ground its the my clients who are suffering being batted back and forth between Turkey Greece and the e. U. Schalit even ski for r. T. Casting yes on the greek Turkish Border one the European Parliament several furious m. P. s are demanding e. U. And all cooperation with turkey for causing this latest crisis. This is again a good lesson for us that European Union doesnt solve our problems it only makes the problems worse we paid 6000000000 euros to the turkish regime and what do we get after some of the several years we only get blackmailed again so does the other gun just wants more money from us and this has to stop. When it is clear that mr. Storch you are not a reliable partner and so i think that you should secure the interim council because i think that your piano taxpayer certainly have lost a lot of money i mean in my view would be an appropriate response for the e. U. To suspend the Turkish Customs Union with immediate effect. And. We may well be demanding this in the not too distant future. Kentuckys opposite border with syria moves are being made to defuse weeks of escalating violence the leaders of russia and turkey agree to a cease fire in the war torn it in the province following extensive talks in moscow the 2 powers are backing opposing sides in the conflict which has at times for them perilously close to direct confrontation refresh the house more on those discussions. It took a total of 6 hours 3 of them ted ted between ludmer putin and it dept i put a band thats a lot for top men and then the 2 countries delegations including foreign and defense ministers join their leader is and this discussion continued it was clear from the beginning it is not going to be an easy chorus stationed both leaders ok vow to journalists with the outcome of thursdays crucial talks on syria the key point is that the 2 sides came to an agreement to deescalate the syrian turkish crisis in syrias lord and even the provinces. He said this in concrete putin as the band signed a document detailing a cease fire on the ground in a glib that starts from midnight march 6th your job is sought at midnight beginning on the 6th of march and a ceasefire will be implemented we will take all necessary steps to ensure it lasts through our goal is to do Everything Possible to prevent the humanitarian situation from deteriorating in the region. So the ceasefire is certainly agcy point but there were some other steps agreed upon between russia and turkey the 2 sides decided to establish a socalled safe corridor 12 kilometer wide 6 kilometers north and 6 kilometers south from syria strategic and for highway connecting and lattakia and to start joint patrol of this area to secure it had to make it a safe zone starting march 15th flood report and describe thursday stocks with head of the gun in general as positive moves to the surface listening to this group but we dont always agree without turkish partners in our evaluation of the situation in syria but in a critical moment having high level bilateral relations weve always managed to find Common Ground on controversial issues and have found acceptable solutions. A while ago the turkish president announced a special gather rain on syria in istanbul but not only between russia and turkey but also with france and germany thats what meant putting convinced his turkish counterpart that they do not need mediators and this is why we saw mr as a gun coming here to moscow kremlin and having a discussion with like reporting things that to director of the wrong poor Peace Institute told r. T. Its in both russia on tuckeys and trust that the cease fire holds. We should all breathe a sigh of relief because truly russia and turkey were on the brink of direct conflict it was careening out of control and i think it was very wise to have called this bilateral meeting to hammer it out because there are the danger of the escalating into war and possibly including nato was very real the whole issue of the of the war torn in the province is not that different than the war for aleppo province which amazingly settled down once it was liberated from the from the control of ji hardest of extremists and al qaida and thats the exact same thing in italy a province the important thing is that the m 4 in an m 5 highways will be open up thats important to certainly to russia into syria but lets also remember the heir to one is having some problems back home theres a huge brawl in the Parliament Just yesterday with 2 with the parties fighting each other the opposition parties are not thrilled that everyone has essentially embedded Turkish Military forces with al qaida to serve as human shields to prevent the syrians from retaking their own territory hes gone way out on a ledge and i think hes finding himself at the end of his political row perhaps. On this move on to a story about how to whistle blowers are planning a new legal challenge to the wild chemical weapons watchdog its often a p. C. Inquiry prompted the inspectors right after they went public in the wake of that study off an alleged attack in duma in syria 2 has ago they now want a scientific hearing and an elected to the director general they cues the watchdog of ignoring that walk. Inspect to be annoyed tried on many occasions to meet with you you may also know open haps not that these requests were all denied the reason given by a senior official was its my role to protect the director general you will never get to speak with him and if you try to go around me to get him there will be consequences letters to the director of the Global Chemical weapons watchdog courtesy of the gray zone project there the latest development in a ping Pong Exchange of correspondence between david and goliath whistleblowers and the o. P. C. W. Inspector in ny i have tried to resolve our concerns with you in private however this saga has unfortunately escalated to a point where we are now publicly portrayed as adversaries inspectors are now being smeared as the into this is of these values for nothing more than daring to speak out the smearing started back in february with a report in response to what the Organization Called a breach of confidentiality leaks that casts doubt on the o. P. C. W. s conclusions about duma they said the gas cylinders were likely place there rather than dropped from an aircraft and that one area was likely not even subjected to a chemical attack but the report barely even touched on any of that the authors were too busy trying to tear the whistleblowers inspectors a and b. To pieces. Inspectors a and b. Are not whistleblowers theyre individuals who could not accept that their views were not backed but evidence their behaviors even more egregious as they had manifestly incomplete information about the doom and vesta gave their conclusions were erroneous on informed and rone erroneous uninformed that doesnt seem very becoming for 2 guys who are apparently the Inspection Team leaders why would a pair of the top Inspection Team leaders both with impeccable record both incidentally from the west and Group Background who have never set a foot wrong suddenly go rogue did these old circumstances not ring some warning bells they sure are confident in their qualifications but it goes farther than that inspectors a and b. Categorically rejects one of the o. P. C. W. s biggest claims against them that they have pretty much nothing to do with the investigation and no access to Important Information when i joined the team shortly after the start of the deployments to do inspect a b. And i continued playing a central role in the overall investigation the final report didnt exactly benefit from the editorial turnaround information was slashed details removed and facts dont explain why its not like the inspectors didnt try to get answers to their questions before pressing the big red leak button something had gone wrong inside the o. P. C. W. Center and we wanted you to know its that simple they even think there might have been a bit of deception at play the investigation was conducted by a british investigator and a lawyer from the us. The activities of the Fact Finding Mission were managed by o. Chief of cabinet from fronts whose views are echoed in both the narratives does it not strike you was somewhat biased in that the 3 individuals represent the 3 defendants the 3 countries who were responsible for the missile strikes in response to the allegation of a chemical attack in duma and o. P. C. W a leak and some back and forth later there are still so many questions and few answers as to what really happened. Well of course weve asked for its response to the claims and well pass on any reply in the meantime we spoke to former f. B. I. Agent whistleblower riley who suspect may account pay. The allegation and accusation that these 2 inspectors who were amongst the top experts they were the 1st hand investigators that actually examined the evidence the allegation that they went rogue makes no sense at all and again given that they were amongst the top professionals in it with the expertise in engineering and in chemical weapons these were the top people so it really is really defies of believability that they would have gone rogue they and their close to retire you know they have done a many many years of faithful service to the o. P. C. W. They believe in the mission of truth in times of war truth becomes the 1st casualty and syria is no different at this point it would have to be one side is not telling the truth here and the the entity that changed conclusions of reports would be the suspected entity that is not telling the truth. On the way something fishy is going on and the war turns around the government faddle deployed the navy to apollo in your Fishing Vessels and one between. One man and the last in the race for the u. S. Democratic election of a nation faces a big battle for hop over the party will delve into those 2 stories in just a couple of minutes. With feeding our hopes our dreams and desires our money to get this creates what do we get back to go like thats thats a bad deal so when is technology jumping out of this 1. 00 is that going to be helping to keep you healthy to keep the need for it or to keep the you know connected and i missed. So we will live in an area the post screen area where we will live with less and all these screens and it will be more in harmony or it will help us more. Join me every thursday on the alex simon shore and ill be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business im show business ill see you then. The question is i was ben what do you do with Global Economy that relies on just in time to live array of parts and Services Mostly from. Wage china is interrupted by a Global Pandemic and cant be overcome with more money printing thats the big question. Lets head straight to the u. K. Because london says it will deploy the navy to prevent easy Fishing Vessels from entering its waters and thats becoming a key Sticking Point in the brics trade talks. Explains. The town of poole on englands south coast is one of the u. K. s oldest fishing communities and the local economy relies heavily on the fisheries industry its a calm and a delicate town but life could be about to be brutally disrupted if the political rhetoric is to be believed the u. K. s tory governments have warned the e. U. That if their ships try to access british waters theyll deploy the royal navy to keep them outs setting the stage for a confrontation on the high seas we have increased a. Sufficient the u. K. Is currently in a socalled transition period in the gauche a should have begun which will determine what kind of deal the u. K. Will leave with at the end of december this year but when it comes to fishing the 2 sides are still far apart in the months the u. K. Wants the e. U. To follow british law and for negotiations to take place annually similar to an agreement they have with norway they you however wants to have a Long Term Agreement with quotas on fishing mysie uses the deficit free warned the e. U. Against trying to use fisheries as a negotiating chip while the french of hit back saying theyre more than ready to get north sea if the u. K. Isnt willing to play ball all we play is with emotion was drama was passion was symbols and we know how to make it a very i think nasty battle both sides both sides now very nice about them playing you could mean the french blockading channel ports and some british fishermen say that the french are provoking the u. K. Into taking harsh measures if france decided to take that action. I think that it would just from apology meant that we need to. We need to self manage ourselves and on fully prepared for things which i dont think it would worry that the u. K. Fisherman until we should have our own waters back. In the past we have adam and. Belgians fight each everyone gets bigger quote than the english fisherman so sank scott to be done if the english fisherman down and if that would be arrested on the other side of the channel the feeling of mistrust is mutual and the sense is that a confrontation is inevitable but on a sort of a finale we havent really been informed we hope this case is looking up because if there were no negotiations it would mean no deal at the end of the year in this case would be excluded from british waters this would be a disaster for the fishermen of the whole to france but also for french fishermen in general. About since you didnt obviously it is a deal or no deal if you do but i think that if you are going towards or no deal in the u. K. As ourselves the European Union not only france who says it would lose a loss anyway it is not in our interest so u. K. Interests we must find an agreement with Great Britain the e. U. U. K. Negotiations only began formally this week but already the question of fisheries could derail talks and lead to tit for tat retaliations that harm both french and british fishing communities and damage relations between these longtime allies. Including. Some fine you for this hour a lot of us election focus right now is on how the Democratic Party choice is pretty much down to white men in the seventys but hawaii congresswoman tulsi cabot is still in the race she won 2 delegates in American Samoa and so makes it through to the next time across debates but the Party Executive wants to shift at the goalposts on that as caleb morgan explains from new york. The Democratic Partys machine has been widely exposed for playing favorites when it comes to president ial candidates the latest example of this is the treatment of tulsa gabbert as a result of these super tuesday vote Tulsi Gabbert gained a delegate and was thus eligible to appear in the televised debate so the d. N. C. Then changed the rules we have 2 more debates of course this threshold will go up by the time we have the much debate almost 2000 delegates will be allocated the threshold will reflect where we are in the race as it always has the rules keep changing in order to make sure that tulsi is locked out her supporters poured out their rage on to twitter god forbid told c. Gets back on the debate writes translation tosi finally hit the debate qualifications so we got to do something about that despite the fact theres literally only 5 people left in the race. You must really not want to debate stage pathetic the bias against healthy gabbert is rather extreme media reports pretend that she doesnt even exist they claim that Elizabeth Warren is somehow the only female candidate and you are going to Say Something about Elizabeth Warren is she going to benefit by being the only woman left now that amy clover sharers out Elizabeth Warren recently dropped out of the race so if the democrats want to keep with their message of inclusion they should have telsey gabbert on the stage but they seem to have a lock her out just like theyve done in the past furthermore Tulsi Gabbert is currently suing Hillary Clinton for publicly smearing her as a russian asset now some people suspect that the bias against tulsa gabbert is rooted in the fact that back in 2016 she endorsed Bernie Sanders and did not line up behind Hillary Clinton furthermore its worth pointing out that shes been rather critical of the debate process and the lack of inclusion back in november tolson gabbert used her permitted debate appearance to go after d. N. C. Favorite candidate Camila Harris and her record as a criminal prosecutor the facts were damning and the Harris Campaign shut down shortly afterwards however it seems to be tulsas antiwar stance taken as she is a u. S. Service member that is the real unforgivably clincher she wants to and regime change wars and cut military spending congress and just passed a 738000000000. 00 war budget instead of providing for the health the safety the security of the well being of our people and our planet the Democratic Partys leadership seems to disagree with her they favor regime change operations and bloated military expenditures the Democratic Party favors continued military operations around the world done in the name of defending democracy and at home they dont mind arbitrarily changing the rules to make sure that democracy doesnt get in the way. This vitally important war agenda caleb mop and r. T. New york. From me for today nick aaron 8 will be hand at the top of the al at the primate to say stick around and ill see.
