A bill to ban publishing, images of police that could have malicious consequences. Any time of the day, anywhere in the World Broadcasting live from moscow, its our team international. Im donald quarter with you here in the studio. Welcome to the program. Now germany has adopted a new law allowing its authorities to impose tougher coronavirus related restrictions, but it didnt pass without incident inside the boom. The stock m. P. s taunted each other while outside protesters against the law clashed with riot police, who blasted them with Water Cannons. The Authorities Say almost 200 people have been detained and 9 officers injured. I, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i, well, what we were looking out was the amendment to the protection against infection act. What we had was a series of points that were essentially government advice. What this amendment would do would in shrine them in law. Thats what drew people out onto the streets. Were hearing as many as 14000 from some Police Sources that may have been out on the streets at the late at least demonstrations, 10 quite nasty. What we saw was rockets, fireworks thrown at the police bottles, rocks, pepper spray, according to the police union being used against offices that police returned with water cannon that was used to douse the crowds to try and essentially make them wet, miserable, and go home on their own volition that hasnt looked for a hardcore nucleus, though weve remained and continue in a standoff with, with police offices. Now we also saw one of the politicians over the understand getting involved in this for a call thats being going on. Cost him his whos a member of alternative for germany and a member of the from the stock, shared a video alternative for germany. His party on this day, his say show him being confronted by Police Officers for not wearing a mask. He then produced a documents that he says gives a me a medical exemption from wearing a mask. Police werent accepting not. He was taken away in a very forceful manner. But alternative for germany are just making accusations based on the video. Theyre also being the subject of some accusations. This is after a number of protesters seemingly gained access to the bundestag and they were able to harass a number of politicians, including German Economy minister, a close ally of peta altmire. The free democrats have suggested that it was alternative for germany to let those people into the building. Those allegations havent being backed up as of yet. But what it all comes down to is the points that are included in this amendment to the law. Basically, it will allow orders to stay home, forcing to people being forced to wear face coverings, and people being ordered to social distance will now be enshrined in german law. Now, while its been quite tense outside of parliament and on the streets of berlin, also got a bit spicy in parliament in the bundestag during the debate. Todays draft is in the parliament, a government on the scale and seen in decades, even some from merkels own party had made these restrictions go against the constitution. Merkels draft concludes that the rom no alternative typical mark, which the reason alternative for germany is what we just saw was a drowning Political Force clutching at straws, drowning as a party, because they have no topics, ideas and no answers of their own, who are not capable of creating, all you can do is be against your radical friends outside have been calling to block the entrance to the parliament. And you just like them. Want to block the way of lawmaking. And you want to hold the whole institution of parliament through the mud because you hate it. Thats your religion. Youve got my will turn it if all you want is turmoil. Well, the amendment to the act went through 415 members of the bundestag in favor, 236, against with 8 abstentions. But while thats passed, what we have seen a wednesday is that there is a large number of people who are willing and committed to coming out onto the streets to show how deeply unhappy they are with how the German Government is handling this pandemic. We heard from Party Members on both sides of the border stop going to seems opposition to the law is far reaching. Its not only our profit, its not only the members of the parliament. There are also many, many people on the streets and also experts, experts and university teachers. If you cannot suspend the basic your rights, such as freedom of assembly or the right to privacy, does this very serious violation of the chairman constitution. The way this law is wrapped through the Journalist Community in exactly the us, normally, you would have, it is, gosh, all this may be possible. The society is casting wish measures are close to it. And the scientists and politicians on one table. But here it is just the government, not even including the opposition parties in the discussions and ramming this law through the gloom of this world. Antidoping agency has blasted the u. S. Over a bill that could imprison people involved in sports doping except in u. S. Domestic leagues want to describe it as double standards and a free pass for professional and College Athletes in america. I took a deeper look at the issue and you duping agency wishes to understand why this legislation excludes the vast areas of u. S. Support. In particular, the professional leagues and all college sport, it is not good enough for american sports. Why is it fine for the rest of the world . Washingtons rolled out its latest offensive in the war on performance enhancing drugs. Its called the rod chunk of act, anti doping act of 2019 would strengthen the integrity of International Sports competitions by imposing criminal sanctions on certain persons involved in International Doping fraud conspiracy. The act would green light washington for legal action against doping conspirators in games involving american players and it outlines some have to be penalties, fines of up to 1000000. 00, as well as prison sentences of up to 10 years. A dream come true for the usa today. It is a monumental day in the fight for clean sport worldwide, and we look forward to seeing the act soon become law and help change the game for clean athletes for the good. Considering how the u. S. Has treated domestic doping in the past. The lawbook could probably use of updates take Julian Edelman, the patriots shining star and super bowl m. V. P. His career seen some great achievements with a little help from dope, its wide receiver Julian Edelman is facing a 4 game suspension for performance enhancing substances. A 4 game suspension is quite a long leap away from 10 years in the can for edelman though, the cushy treatment didnt end there. He was still showered with awards at the years and even sealed advertisement deals. There are no rules in basketball. Its a similar story. Last year basketball, prodigy deon, dreyer, 8, and was caught doping up his punishment jail. Just kidding. He was suspended for 25. 00 games and then showed up on the jimmy kimmel show. Hes a member of the n. B. A. All rookie team from the phoenix suns. Say hello to deion 38 and hello to you, right. Ok, and heres the best part. Hes now the face of a Protein Health shake commercial. I was on the price. Thats how you do it. Washingtons long made it clear they take doping in sports very seriously. When of course, it suits their agenda. Sports writer and broadcaster alan moore warns the us bill has an agenda very different to the one previously stated. This has nothing to do with lease welfare or looking after cheese. If it did, it would be totally different stuff im going to eat for the 5 mins. Its not going to vote for the sponsors of the sport. Its simply looking out for the money interests, the hollanders, media, and government. Its nothing to do with r. C. Whether because it was welfare they would have voted in across the board. All of the Major League Sports in america would sign of the media to water. But you wont do it because the owners of the big major sports teams and Media Networks who cover them and this huge be massive situation investors in these sports wont happen. So deuce has nothing to indicate whether this is simply a bose greet on the dollar. Another news protests have turned violent in france following a draft security bill to ban the publication of images of police taken with the intent to cause them harm. The entire interior minister insists the bill will protect officers, but it sparked outrage from home human rights. Campaigners tear gas and Water Cannons were fired in the french capital to disperse the angry crowds. On tuesday our correspondent was in the thick of the protest and was on the receiving end of some police mishandling. One of the camera crew was shoved away while filming the protesters, the socalled Global Security bill ams, to ban the dissemination of images that would make Police Officers identifiable for, quote, malicious purposes. The offense could mean a year in prison or a 45000 euro fine. The bill has attracted criticism from the Uns Commission for human rights and activist groups. The bill could lead to significant violations of human rights and fundamental freedoms in particular, the right to privacy and the right to freedom of expression. To discuss the controversial bill with french journalists, violence may be used within the framework of the law where there is selfdefense, or if the use is strictly necessary and proportionate. And but only only the possibility of filming freely without constraints gives these guarantees. But the rockets are out of this low does not like the expression of Police Violence because he thinks that there is legitimate and illegitimate violence. I think in a nutshell, we can say that france is experiencing an authoritarian bonapartists rift, as it has unfortunately often experienced in its past. Im sorry to say that journalism is the cornerstone of a healthy society. You would have only if youre familiar with the case of alexander ben, allow the bodyguard of president mccraw, or you would have george floyd if people did not film those events, you would know. And if you dont know, you slip into dark areas and, and that, that article to me for, which is part of a long list about it cause enough war is detrimental to journalism. Theres already c. C. T. V. Cameras everywhere. Theres people from the me ever, everybodys got a cell phone. You cannot stop people from filming whether you like it or not. The truth will surface at one point. The only thing that this, this law, if of by some miracle, it passes, it will, it was a bag of 8, but the tension between the journalists and the police. And i dont see it happening. The press in france as they call it, before the poets. Its very complicated to go by past a new poll Shows Nearly Half of all british people want a Coronavirus Vaccine to be mandatory with one senior m. P. Warning and could be banned from offices and public transport. We bring you the details after this short break. Join me every thursday on the alex simon, sure, and ill be speaking to guest of the world of politics. Sports business, im show business. Ill see you then welcome back to the program. Now with covert 19 measures in mind, some nations are beginning to gauge Public Opinion on vaccinations. In the u. K. , almost half of all people would support making them mandatory. Thats according to a recent government survey. And despite more than one 3rd of british people still opposing it, one senior m. P. Has said that those who refuse the shot should expect to be banned from public places. If vaccination works, and if were confident safe and all indications so far are good, then i can certainly see the day when businesses say, look, youve got to return to the office and if youre not vaccinated, youre not coming in. The tory politician went on to suggest that the use of public transport should also require passengers to be vaccinated, then there was a bit of online backlash. Some have been questioning the safety of the n. T. Cova drug, while others highlighted the possible divisions that could emerge from making it mandatory. In while in denmark, a new epidemic law is being considered that could allow police to administer the vaccine by force to certain people or groups thats triggered. Widespread protests with reports now suggesting that copenhagen could backtrack on the plan. We took the idea of mandatory vaccinations to a panel of experts on sunday north against vaccinations on one of city. My sons partly the situation. You can sense we should hurry these parts nations were necessary as fuck since cheney is student should be improved yet. So this law is being fast tracked are also great. Bizzare are the paid governments, ensuring that people cannot sue the manufacturers, will be competent school. Anything which happens. Hes as a result of this foxy, i think that were in a real emergency situation and its not like, you know, 56 years ago when you make a choice as to whether or not you have actually in rio raised a major threat. Make a Public Health threat by the and their frightening government is not really right. In speeding things up, people are worried that this essentially is kind of straying into the area of proposing and nor a bit of an authoritarian tends to at what do you respond to people who add to that. And lets assume for one moment we have the facts, a nation which is safe. What should we do with that vaccination . Should be obliged people to have the vaccination. Well, there is no law in the u. K. That the government could use at the moment to make you know, bigotry. In fact, the 984 act which comes closest to it actually prevents the government requiring people to undergo medical treatment or vaccination. So there isnt a more, a lot of people are mistrust who are going back in because, you know, people are saying, well, theres all these big crawling through companies coming in there making loads of money on it. Who knows whats really behind them. So now actually there is, there is sufficient and i would be right, if they were christians openly in my view, i think their and, and he baiting there and creating a mediation where those that were like myself, really wanted to go ahead. Rocks in getting deck bigger and bigger. America needs rotten mean crime. You commit the operation because the worst thing that you can do is use chords that were simply confirm. People who destroyed the work to create, call them or call them in the long run. And then you can read a little bit basic thesis, a discourse or a virus, or you should because if you cant cure, were taught in public transport, going to russia or to work. Or if you thought about actually wish most peoples minds hed meet with your total. So really and states, if we got a hold on treatment rather than vaccination and we kept doing what were all trying to do, wear masks why gloves, social distance is not, not enough. Or 2, we really need to stray into as people are saying, this realm of to konya north stepping and stepping on the toes of peoples liberties. Well, i think if you could do you, do we already know i would do, i dont know where and now were out of this and clearest and i would have actually done so with millions of people that i go through social backgrounds, you know, are actually very happy to get their rocks the in the who are about to go about doing no real info. That would be the president through which they go to the military. Go with people who actually knew the liberating intervention. And i think its very steely to say that we dont need about the protests again hit the armenian capital this wednesday over the peace deal for nagornokarabakh demonstrations in your, of on have split. However, between those in support of and against the Prime Minister. Thats after he signed a truce for the disputed region with azerbaijan. Just over a week ago, the Prime Minister, supporters gathered in a Central Square in year of on the premier himself even came out to meet them, asking the crowds to return home. On the capitals Freedom Square a demonstration, calling for nichol paasschen jaan to resign, took place the cease fire agreement has been widely seen as a form of surrender in armenia. According to its terms of survive, john will keep its military gains and later this month will also receive 3 other districts in the disputed car bought into russian peacekeepers have reopened the only road link between armenia and the region to ensure the safe return of civilians. There deployment is also lending support to the cooperation efforts between armenia and armenian and incar. A buck has this report on the peacekeeping mission just north of shushi, the site of some of the bloodiest and most merciless fighting of this war is a russian peacekeeper outpost. They arrived to a scene from a nightmare routes lined with bodies and bombs burned and blasted vehicles after weeks of failure. As she was eventually reached in the 10th of november, it was full of compromise where armenia agreed to handover various territories. It controlled to a 0 by john, the latter agreed to let Ethnic Armenian refugees return to their homes. But signing papers is one thing. Making sure things actually happen is another one of the benefits of the 2 dozen or so. Russian seized monitoring stations that have been set up here in the go in the code above is that they are neutral territories. They areas where as their buddy troops just a few 100 meters away from us can come as well as armenian forces. And they can resolve their disputes with the help of russian peacekeepers. As mediators, there are also areas where the red cross can come. For example, to do its own work, such as organize the exchange of prisoners. The change of the remains the fall in troops to coordinate the mining operations. Its all about trust peacekeepers serve an important function. Sure. They discourage cease fire violations that really gets you so far. But they shine, that is getting those who waged war to build peace, to that end, humanitarian groups of flux to care about the red cross being at the forefront. Now roots and passes once littered with bodies and traps and mines a safe and but what breeds even more optimism, is that armenians. It is here by john. These can gather at the same place and talk ether through russian peacekeepers. More of guys d. Of the gordon. Meanwhile, refugees are returning to cora bach under the protection of russian peacekeepers. On tuesday, 500 armenians travelled back to their homes. Having fled the fighting 1700. People have now gone back to the key city of step on a kurd, and expressed thanks for russian support. We feel that we arent alone anymore. Were supported, weve been given our lives back. Im happy that russia has with me. Ive nothing to do is respected russia and i have nothing to lose. I feel happy and proud that we have friends like this that help us and dont leave us in trouble. In a recent interview, president putin explained why moscows earlier peace moves with armenia and azerbaijan did not work out. Not on october 19th and 20th, i had a series of phone conversations with president lee havent Prime Minister passion, yen. At that time, the armed forces of azerbaijan had regained control over an insignificant southern part of care about it. In general, i managed to convince president aliyev that it was possible to stop the hostilities. But his obligatory condition was the return of refugees, including to shusha. Then unexpectedly, for me, the position of armenian partners was formulated in such a way that it was unacceptable for them that the Prime Minister told me back then. But no, we cannot agree to this. We will fight, therefore, accusations against him, of some kind of betrayal have no basis faster than light updates on your world news stories. Make sure to check out our website, r. T.
