us live from moscow this is our pleasure to have your company my names you know me . the british government is facing a wall 'd of resistance regarding its plans to send asylum seekers overseas for processing gibraltar on the isle of man are believed to be 2 of the options but authorities there say they want nothing to do with the scheme prime minister boris johnson has defended the idea. the objective here is to is to save life and avert human misery because people are crossing the channel who are being food who are being conned by gangsters into paying huge sums of money risking their lives people have died beaking this trying to make this crossing and it is a deeply repugnant traffic that we need to stop well that idea was 1st suggested by pretty brutal the home secretary amid the escalating migrant crisis though at the time it was branded a sick joke however that idea has now resurfaced from the prime minister barak johnson well critics have long said that this kind of policy will only make the journey all the more risky and that the government should really be prioritizing legal alternatives and safe passages for migrants to enter the united kingdom but on this latest policy they've branded as exacerbating the hostile environment it is an inhumane paula said that undermines our nation's proud tradition of providing protection to people fleeing persecution and terror many of whom have gone on to work as doctors and nurses in the n.h.s. these absurd ideas show the government has lost control and all sense of compassion well even the united nations has waded into this latest plan of shipping asylum seekers and refugees to remote areas in exchange for cash by calling it a risk to roading international protection for refugees but at this point we have heard 'd from some of those remote territories british remote territories are saying they're having none of it along with ideas to build a road tunnel under the irish sea or a bridge above it this latest idea simply as to the rich tapers tree of life we're dealing with at present april the 1st isn't until next month but nonetheless the idea is expected to be included in policy papers as of next week as part of a wider shake up of asylum falls in a post for accept britain so the situation is looking critically. for asylum seekers here in the united kingdom in fact right now asylum seekers are being housed in temporary accommodation including former army military barracks that have long been described as a prison like we've seen outbreaks and totally. hygiene facilities there as well which is also met huge criticism from charities organizations and the labor party as well it seems as though the case of asylum seekers has long been a thorn in the government's side and so now this latest idea to ship them off to remote territories seems as though the government is changing its tactic of lock them up and throw away the key to out of sight out of mind we also heard from druce of darning who is a lecturer in migration policy of the london school of economics he believes the offshore processing problem for migrants is misguided. he's referencing people trafficking in criminal gangs which are important right people reach nikkei as they are in people reaching the whole of europe but whether sticking with asylum seekers we process the art of manageable it will save lives about that i'm highly judicious there's a logic in terms of trying to trying to stop losing people in the general population right this is basically what's happened in the past 1520 years here in the u.k. when people decide in claims have been rejected the rates of deportation are extremely low it's extremely expensive it should be difficult extremely commerce and the idea of between behind this policy is essentially to isolate people in remote areas easier to survey and then easier to remove now how you would get people from the mainland u.k. to due process are all to the isle of man without significant issues that's the bit for me that remains to be seen and i don't see there being a clear pathway for the british government to do that. scandinavian countries are extending a freeze on the use of the astra zeneca code vaccine that is despite bigger opinion medicines agency concluding on thursday a drug does not cause blood clots. well let's talk through that decision with our t. shirt to do in paris hi charlotte most european countries are not biased to using the astra zeneca show so why are the nordic countries taking a different view. well it's a bit of a problem relieve the european medicines agency it's less than 24 hours since he gave a clean bill of health in the astra zeneca vaccine saying that it was safe and effective to use against 19 but now we find that several scandinavian countries still aren't sure about using this vaccine let's start with finland which has now suspended the use of the astra zeneca jab while making best against shoe cases of potential blood clots on top of that we know the norway denmark and sweden they're all holding back from we starting their programs all of them still have concerns about issues surrounding astra zeneca and say that they going to carry out their investigations now. due to several serious cases and no way we want to thoroughly review the situation before we make a conclusion. well blood clots eye is the issue that's being discussed over and over nots initially will be the main was investigating over the last week oh say but there have been of the much more serious effects that some say to astra zeneca let's have a look now at some of those cases. now the a.m.a. of course did carry out extensive investigations into these possible side effects and what they said at their press conference on thursday is that the vaccines benefit in protecting people from coronavirus related deaths school hospitalisations continued to outweigh the possible links as a result of taking the astra zeneca vaccine and that's why they really approved it rubber stamped it once again for use but it's not just countries nordic countries who are still querying the u.s. about the job saying that can only be used for those over the age of 55 now you might wonder why that seems so odd but if i go back to just a couple weeks ago being told by authorities here in france that astra zeneca shouldn't be used with those in older age groups so it does feel for many is if the new advice is a complete u. turn in. it is leaving many people questioning why well the reason is because the e.m.e.a. also on thursday suggested that they were a possible increased risk of blood clots for those under the age of 55 if they had the astra zeneca job so this health authority in france the national health authority is out of an abundance of caution saying we will not give the job to anybody that age group now here in france there would be 1400000 doses of astra zeneca that have been doled out so for many of those have been due to health professionals some of which of course will be under the age of 55 the question that they might be asking themselves is if they've only had the 1st dose will they get the 2nd dose it's not clear so many people probably feeling as if they're in some kind of limbo at the moment and there is of course this huge mistrust of the astra zeneca vaccine already only 20 percent of people recently surveyed said that they had confidence in this vaccine so much so that the french prime minister went on television live on friday and had himself the astra zeneca job don't worry he's 55 so he wasn't breaking protocol but there's also now the question as to what this means for the year may itself we now have countries across the european union who is deciding that it's rubber stamping all of us just isn't quite good enough let's not forget that the e m a is the scientific body for the whole of the european union this is the party that looks at medicines and decides if it's to improve them so the idea that countries are now questioning want to double check the figures the investigations over this issue the vaccines really does raise that question of trust and at a time when we're now being told that there are no enough facts seems to be a friend a 3rd 1000 wave here in europe and many. people may now be saying you know actually i don't want that proxy i would prefer to have that one read your big issues that need to be resolved charlie doman ski in central park us thank you. over in the u.k. via astra zeneca it's happening much faster than in europe but a british nurse there told us many people are still reluctant to take the job people who are concerned about the speed at which the facts in nations we develop so that's now compounded with tools and concerns around blood clots in the connection with these these brain blood clots that can develop or they you know this is fission they may defend after this particular vaccination i had a conversation yesterday a patient who actually said that he would not be getting that one and he has now gone on to a different brand of vaccination because he's lost confidence in that one. that is getting support from the top boris johnson the prime minister said he plans to take the astra zeneca job on earth to other people to do the same but naomi bennett again thinks members of the public are right to be cautious. but i think the big concerns are warranted as we are because we don't really want to be gambling with people's lives you know it's not and there was a lot of talk around this speed at which the facts in the actions develop so there is a lot of concerns about you know how safe are the vaccine and now you know i just i just hope that every some think you've made. a living the program of denmark has proposed legislation that aims to reduce the number of quote non-western residents and neighborhoods to a muslim of 30 percent within 10 years denmark a population of just under 6000000 around half a 1000000 are non-western migrants or the descendants of immigrants that's around 80 percent of the population there's been a mixed reaction to the plans as artie's done hawkins takes us through that be it a lot of other nations keeping a close eye on copenhagen's progress to. multiculturalism means different things to different people and has been described by bullet oceans as both a strength and a force for good and a failed experiment bringing more problems and solutions the danish government has its own view and vision of the future when many non-western immigrants settle in certain residential areas it increases the risk of create in parallel religious and cultural societies therefore the government will now work to create a mixed house in areas and ensure that in 10 years residents with non-western backgrounds make up a maximum of 30 percent in our house in areas in denmark to be classed as a ghetto an area must have a high number of non-western migrants high unemployment and crime low income and poor education an area could be all of the above yet be majority white and therefore not be classed as a ghetto boy non westerners authorities mean anyone not from denmark switzerland or they eate countries and by reducing the numbers of such undesirables in communities many of the above listed problems could apparently be solved this core foods is a bad choice in barrels and grooves in a positive development in residential areas making them more attractive to words range of the population i think 30 years may be kind of a drastic number. if i don't know many of the saddle of with like 50 i prefer different people living side by side but it's very very difficult to take implement into this is say it's important that we don't push people out of their homes if i was personally on with them. and they would try this way to racially divided us would i would not feel welcome such areas in denmark already face special treatment such as doubles penalties for crimes collective punishment by a vixen mandatory language tests and training in daily should be values for kids and the limits on public housing this is a policy rooted in. prejudice and racism and when you are you know labeling it as non-western which means anybody who's brown. i think is the problem probably problematic and so integration is a 2 way street it can't be the responsibility just of the people who move into any particular country or that's where european governments have built their failed to integrate minority communities because they're what we've seen them as in what we've seen them as not equally part of their societies similar plans came to light a few years back and caused a stir with even the un expressing its concern about what it called forced assimilation denmark isn't the only european state dealing with the issue of ghettoization france and neighboring sweden have had their own share of troubles there is a significant problem right across europe with the ghettoization i remember after some terror attacks in paris i went over to one of your states on the outskirts of town which was predominantly muslim now there's nothing wrong with that but what you have a tendency to find this in a lot of these european cities will be the most libertarian will be the african area and the be the kind of western area and what happens is people fail to integrate now i'll be honest with you i genuinely think that the problem here is that we have less it too many immigrants to europe too quickly thought was this isn't a perfect solution you can understand where it comes from copenhagen to set an ambitious and unprecedented plan to tackle a political football head on other countries will watch closely to see it sink or swim. the kremlin has repeated its offer to washington for the nation's 2 presidents to hold a meeting which would be broadcast live but who are putin has been trying to bring back the promising now for some harsh comments from joe biden last week but so far the u.s. has not responded to requests for thought taylor picks up the story for us. well we all know that moscow and washington are no strangers to tense relations but many had hoped this was a thing of the past however of recent days seem to show that very little has changed since the cold war the same suspicions the same war of words are alive and well decades on and in fact in a sign that there is such an impasse such a breaking point has been reached moscow was forced to admit that despite its best efforts and despite its hopes to the contrary there might be no option but to relive a kind of throwback to the low points of the past of course we always hope for the best and for the worst the president has clearly expressed his desire to maintain relations between russia and the u.s. no matter what it says he's not only in our interest but the entire world's. why is such a resigned tone from the kremlin well just to recap quickly you argued this week on national television president biden essentially called vladimir putin a killer a shocking statement that was unprecedented in its lack of diplomacy unfounded in its lack of evidence and really unexpected given moscow's insistence over the years that it wants to work with washington and in keeping with this tradition despite that remarkable comment from his american counterpart vladimir putin reiterated russia's readiness to cooperate with all countries of the world including the u.s. but washington stopped by its guns present very very well going forward but you. know the president gave a direct answer to a direct question i would say that the president already had a conversation already with president putin even as there are more world leaders that he has not yet engaged with and reengage with russian leaders and members of the government at all levels but i don't have anything to report to you in terms of a future meeting the president of course be in georgia tomorrow and quite busy we seem to be seeing a never admit never apologize policy regardless of the consequences for must go more and all of branch an attempt to defuse the escalating situation in fact of the adamant putin did even suggest a quite unique a more sort of malton format for them to hash out their differences a one on one live streamed discussion between the 2 need to as well people from all over the world can tune in and watch them discussing a variety of political issues and he said that while he's away in siberia this we can't see any time he's not available otherwise he's ready to go but apparently joe biden wasn't a fan of the idea was to present a lot of the over because we do agree about. and it's not just biden turning his back on this invitation the white house has no. responded to an official request which moscow and top prints as rejection but it is important to note that whilst this might seem somewhat playful maybe even a touch funny it was a very serious suggestion a serious suggestion for a serious situation because with washington apparently refusing to engage in any kind of dialogue pursuing this provocative rhetoric with the russian ambassador to the u.s. also having been recalled for talks there is absolutely no doubt that relations between the 2 countries are under exceptional strain at the moment so. the new u.s. administration seems to have goethe's off to a rocky start with china relations between american and chinese officials were distinctly chilly during their 1st high level discussions in alaska this week my colleagues knew harvey and rough discuss the standoff well it was an acrimonious that's the acrimonious meeting that was intended originally to gauge relations to see where relations between china and the united states are the historic glue in recent years where those relations stab and somehow secretary of state blinken thought that it would be a good idea to begin this meeting by airing seemingly every grievance that the united states holds against china today we'll have an opportunity to discuss key priorities both domestic and global so that china can better understand our administration's intentions and approach also discuss our deep concerns with actions by china including actions wrong hong kong taiwan cyber attacks on the united states economic coercion toward our allies. each of these actions threaten rules based order that maintains will stability what followed was a strained back and forth exchange and you could see the irritation on these people's faces these are high profile diplomats veteran diplomats and yet still you know none too soon to be the better man the chinese described meeting and the u.s. attitude is it hospitable the united states tone as condescending the united states the cues them using throwing their weight around using their economic supremacy and military supremacy to bully nations and set them against china to sort of cheat international trade with sanctions regimes and restrictions and under the guise of. being in the interests of u.s. national security and the chinese made it very well knew that they wouldn't be talked to like this moment by the mission to tell what we thought that the u.s. would follow basic diplomatic protocol we should clarify our position immediately that we tell you something you have no right to tell china that you start from a position of strength when talking to us photos or to marriage counseling session they were both parties their grievances about the of the side and if there was very little love there between the u.s. and china i think it was absolutely no love when the u.s. came to russia no there wasn't i mean biden came to power promising to reverse all the damage the trumpets done the famous phrase diplomacy is back america is reengaged in the world and you know talks and negotiations are how biden's going to do it we've seen none of that none of that when it comes to foreign policy biden and trump might as well be the same person there seem intent on burning down what bridges remain calling that mr putin a killer for example. and you know that being a violation of simple simple protocol simple diplomacy but russia has said what what china saying what other countries are saying it is tarm tell we in the united states are off of this added shoot where it begins negotiations from a position of strength as they say is that you know. the united states government wants to maintain certain relations with us but on issues of interest to the united states itself and on their terms they think we're just like them but we're different we have a different genetic and cultural moral code but we know how to protect our interests yes we'll work with them but in areas that are of interest to us and terms of benefits and they will have to deal with it many of the faces of biden. in biden's foreign policy team are the same people the remnants of the bombers and ministrations in the same faces many of the same ideas yet there are uproot has been anything but what it was under obama here they seem to have inherited trump's gung ho attitude where they think that you know as they did in the past where force rules unfortunately tryin and russia are increasingly saying it doesn't . the european union has pledged to slash its greenhouse gas emissions by her off over the coming decade and the european commission chief says that if the goal is going to be reached hundreds of billions of euro will have to be spent on boosting renewable energy we want to take green financing to the next level. because to achieve our 2030 gone we need to boost green investment we know that we will have to invest around $3350000000000.00 euros more per year in the energy system in the coming decade to make it sustainable. big figures let's go through a few more the international renewable energy agency has given its own assessment of how much it's going to cost to keep a rise in global temperatures to under $1.00 degrees celsius by 2050 now they say and the additional $33.00 trillion dollars would need to be spent worldwide on top of the currently projected investment of $98.00 trillion dollars so that's almost 8 trillion dollars per year to fund the global switch from fossil fuels to alternative sources of energy all this time a global underspending an infrastructure a study but by the g 20 estimates not an extra 15 trillion dollars will have to be spent mostly on transport over the coming years earlier we discussed the climate crisis and government spending plans with a financial journalist and an environmental scientist. at the same time that we're spending the money we're creating green jobs all think beef is doable it's going to be painful but in the long term it's going to benefit me it's going to offset that damage that's happening to climate change right now and it's getting worse year on year on year where it is happening economic in patterns storms through heat waves to move to the wildfires that we are painful wow all these things have to be addressed urgently and we certainly need a plan my point is as to more of a long term plan than just just funding we have to have a strategy that has to be long term or just this obsession with governments to do what ocular just looks really 6 months down the line in many years from our most people just forgot about that that applies to renewables of which i'm an investor and the parent i meet and the quality and everything else that's going on right now we really need long term plans all of these things are memories the money we just enjoy outrage accordingly so i want to see a long term strategy for renewables that's that's achievable in the same way as we . as with the pandemic and it seems like maybe we haven't really got a proper strategy for either at the moment people we have to do it in the in the right order that's my concern it's awful that i learned to have to spend the time on health now or to spend a ton on climate change later i appreciate it is a balancing act and there's only so much money available but i think that the more money you spend tackling climate change as quickly 'd as possible the less you can pay down the line. u.s. intelligence agencies are claiming that the threat posed by white supremacist groups has increased significantly this year and it comes in the wake of a shooting in atlanta in which 8 people died including 6 asians the media was quick to label the instant i was racially motivated. let's talk about motive police say that the suspect claims he had a sex addiction but there's also concern that the killings were racially motivated and several advocacy groups warn that these shootings are likely to heighten fears among all asian americans that is just textbook i don't even understand why it wouldn't be charged as a hate crime well police have said it's too soon to say if the shootings which occurred of a series of spyros a race hate most of a rights group in blunt of the representing asian americans link the massacre to the rise of white supremacy a political commentator lauren chen believes people should be more worried when using the term. well i think it's very concerning over the past few years how we've seen the definition of white supremacy get watered down to the point where now the term is essentially meaningless is that unfortunately people are very very liberal in applying the white supremacist label label where it simply does not belong and what that actually does it is makes it harder to combat real threats there was the recent shooting where asian women were killed that is an unfortunate tragic incident yes but there is a big difference in terms of how we prevent these attacks from happening when we say that someone was attacked and they happened to be asian versus they were attacked because they were asian and sadly that is a distinction that it seems the media is increasingly unwilling to make it's gotten to the point in terms of media coverage where you would assume that there was an anti asian or white supremacist shooting every week based on how much the media focuses on it and unfortunately what we have is people like my father who is asian now even scared to visit large cities because he thinks that anti asian sentiment is that bad which is not the case f.b.i. statistics show that asian americans are the least likely group to have hate crimes committed against them but in bus goes stellar next taking you through the big players and private space exploration than just will be seek to achieve as they close but. make taste strong like sight or unlike hearing the brain doesn't have an organ for time right we have no organ for time nor could we because time isn't meant to.
