k. was clumsy. that agreement forced the cancellation of australia's multi $1000000000.00 deal to buy french submarines bought and says he was under the mistaken belief paris have been informed we have you older for no more loyal, no decent ally in france. it's been with us from the beginning. reason in part where we came we did was clumsy, was done with a lot of grace. i was under the impression, certain things that happened that had but i made clear french re 3. no, what's important is precisely to be sure that such a situation will not be possible for all future congo coordination, stronger corporation. but for me, what's important is that we build during the past with some very concrete actions in order to strengthen the partnership for hell. this clarification between what european defense means and how this is completely compatible with nato. what's your been sovereignty means and how it is important for goal security? our white house correspondent, kennedy hall. cat has the latest from rhyme. the meeting between the french president emanuel mac craw and u. s. president joe biden was important because these are longstanding allies and the rift that was created as a result of the united states. working with united kingdom and australia and forming a security partnership known as office leaving france in the dark was a flap in the face, according to the french president. and well, there was a telephone call to try and men the relationship. this was the 1st face to face meeting were joe biden, acknowledged the mistakes of the united states, saying that this was clumsy and also without race to leave france, a really ignorant of what was taking place. we should also point out, though that the apology appeared to be accepted by the french president who talked about the importance of the relationship moving forward. what mattered were the actions in the coming days, weeks, months and years now? and joe biden also had other meetings here in rome. he met with the italian president as well as the italian prime minister. but there was another headline, and that was the announcement that health ministers and finance ministers of the g 20 r working creating a task force in order to achieve an ambitious goal. and that is to see that the world's population is vaccinated up to 70 percent. by mid 2022. will the u. s. will soon begin vaccinating children between the ages of 5 and 11. the drug regulation agency has authorized the pfizer biotech coven, 19 job for young kids, and means as many as 21000000 children could be eligible ahead of the food and drug administration says it will bring the country closer to returning sense of normalcy . new york city is brace for as short h a public sector workers aft n vaccine mandate deadline passed on friday. police and fire fighter unions have warned that large sections of the workforce will go and unpaid leave for refusing to get the jam fell. lavelle reports from washington, ah, you, york needs its firefighters and its cops, but pretty soon there may be fewer on duty than before. we're trying to avoid what is going to be an inevitable disaster by design on monday morning. told to get at least one shot and prove it by friday night, given a choice of a covert vaccine or no job unless medically exempt many refusing city workers from 1st responders to sanitation will feel that i should be coerced into taking it before i'm ready. or i'm already back with, with the man not budging. you're harming your fellow sanitation workers and your harming your neighbors and your harming the people. new york city and it's time to stop. and now a city preparing for a shortage in washington to hundreds of fire fighters still unvaccinated, only some claiming their exempt. there are some firefighters for whom, ah, we don't have any vaccine record. so small number, it's about 30. ah, and we don't have, they do not have a vaccine exemption request ended ah, with the dc gun or the depart else. ah, those are individuals who, ah, would be the 1st that we would take adverse action when it comes to officials here in washington. the message is clear, co which shots provide the best defense and the best way of getting this country back on track. but many outside this place do not want to be forced. this country split not just by politics, but by vaccine mandates to protest. as in minnesota and good at a health care providers vaccine mandate space center work is in mississippi, protesting a federal mandate to and airline pilots, trying and failing to block a mandate affecting them. and all of this as the vaccine looks set to be approved for young kids. so when i look at the risk and benefit from my 9 year old son, it's not really a close call. the benefits he will get from the vaccines far outweigh any risk as the f d, i over whelming li, recommending on friday, but 5 to 11 year olds, get the find a job. it still has to be signed off by the cdc, but could come as soon as next week with shots on offer in a matter of days. even if some parents are cautious for my kids. i don't think i'll be getting the vaccine for them until it's been rigor tested. you know, really, really good testing critical just it's too dangerous. one study claiming only 27 percent of parents plan on giving this reduced toast vaccine to decades straight to white. the white house may have its coded beating plan, but it's got a long way to go in convincing the rest of the country. fil lavelle al jazeera washington lauren's gaston is the director of the world health organizations center on global health law. he says, vaccine mandates for children are unlikely for now. i still worry about the u. s. commitment to global vaccination inequity, but to the united states. this is a really important landmark, because children 5 to 11 year old will be able to get the 5 to coven vaccine. it'll get our schools more stable and secure kids educated, and they'll, they'll be much safer, and their families will be safer. there already are a number of requirements for people to get vaccinated. president biden announced 3 vaccine mandates for entire federal workforce for hospitals, nursing homes and also for large businesses. and cities and states and businesses themselves are already requiring vaccinations. so we already have a lot of mandates. i do not foresee cities in states, i mandating it for children, or at least until we get some better safety data and vaccination mandates for the workplace are really starting to, to take hold in the united states and where we, we started to, to move up in our vaccination rate, now that we're going to do it for young children and will even be higher. and so i'm encouraged by this move, but i'm not complacent. we need to do a lot more to get the entire population vaccinated to lebanese ambassadors to saudi arabia in bahrain, have been given 48 hours to leave those countries. saudi arabia has recalled it, some basta, and announced it stopping lebanese imports, crossing its borders. the lebanese prime minister, nat geo mccarthy, is urging his information minister to make the right decision to fix our relations . george cadell, he's criticism of the saudi leg coalitions war in yemen. has a lead to this escalating diplomatic crisis. they know how to explains a few days ago, a video circulated on line in which the information minister was criticizing the saudi a lead military campaign in yemen, in fact, calling saudi arabia the external aggressors. now, this of course angered saudi arabia. the information minister said that his statements were made before he was appointed in the new government. they were made back in august, and this was his personal opinion. but that was just not enough for saudi arabia. even the lebanese government tried to distance itself, the prime minister or the president. they tried to distance themselves from the statements made by the information minister saying that it did not reflect lebanese government policy, but clearly with saudi arabia's decision to recall it some back for consultations and demanding that the lebanese investor in saudi arabia leave the country within 48 hours it is just, this is just not enough. now this is going to, this is definitely a blow to the new government. so ever since prime minister actually took office, he has been talking about, you know, trying to restore relations with the golf corporation council states. because as of late, really, the relationship between lebanon and gulf arab states has been at an all time low. in fact, especially saudi arabia believes that iran through it's local ally, has the law now controls the country. and this is why saudi arabia really has been staying on the sidelines. so the traditional partners of lebanon, the gulf, our countries, the political and economic partners, they have been on the sideline as of yet. so this new incident definitely is going to further further strain. the relationship cilla has on al jazeera, the keys of mishandling a sexual abuse scandal during the fight against ballard, the suspense funding to the wi

is not on you to see showers as you see here in western side of yemen, for example, around the amani coast salia, you have to see showers, for example, around the gulf, but that happens from november till by february occasionally, and it's starting to be a case nasa in the official full courses thunderstorm risk for saturday, maybe not for sunday and monday is temperature. hover a little bit about the average for the whole month of november. but, you know, we're not going to their city crates difference. now, those chows off a big thing and he's generally dry throughout to iran, right up to normal pots pakistan, but temperature dropping tibetan platter, which is hardly a surprise sons. the predominant thing though, in the sky, this is take you to sunday on the eastern side of the bed, including the advantage, turkey, there's a greater likelihood of showers. this is particularly so on sunday. a bit of snow is possible, the high ground in eastern turkey. this is again seasonally normal to the size of that and also cecily noble. there's a little bit of increase in light showers in somalia, but the monsoon rain has gone by them on soon. wind is very light, so the biggest rains in extra your africa off further west, pretty obviously from the gulf of guinea, down to angola. ah, assassination is decision dca, using the democratic process. you will, you will lose it. it will be a loss for all little a documentary explores how autocratic leaders undermine democracy to consolidate their power through the eyes of those who dare to stand and defy it. our country deserves so much for them. being ruled by a cleft crotchety, opposing autocracy democracy maybe on al jazeera. ah ah ah, welcome back. he watching al jazeera mind if on top stories this hour, the u. s. and french presidents of hell that fussed in person meeting since that countries most serious diplomatic dispute in years. j bought and acknowledge the handling of a security packed with australia on the u. k. was clumsy. the us food and drug administration has authorized the pfizer biotech cove in 19 vaccine for children as young as 5 trials for the age group began in july, the lebanese ambassador to saudi

decades. large crowds also gathered in tel aviv robin square, seen organization called green course, led the marches along with a number of environmental groups. michael jacobs is a professor political economy at the university of sheffield, specializing in climate change. he says, richard countries have not kept that promise to help poor countries. we know that up to 2019 there wasn't enough money flowing from the rich nations. the world's the poor ones, and by enough i don't mean what actually the poor countries would really like, but what the developed countries that promised as long as those 2009. and then getting the purchase agreement. in 2015, the rich nations promised that they would mobilize a $100000000000.00 a year of finance to help poor countries, both reduce their emissions and even more importantly, as we've just been hearing there in broadway, adapt to the climate change they've already experienced by 2019, however, only $80000000000.00 had been raised per year in that year. so til 20000000 shorts of the of the promise go. now i think it's quite likely now that in copenhagen, us, or in glasgow 26 in a few days time, we will hear 100000000000 more has just about been breached or will be reached in the next few days. but many developing countries will say that simply isn't enough . paris said that that should be a floor. we need more than that. when you look at the conditions that many poor countries and are experiencing, as you just seen, you can understand their demand for more. the united kingdom is threatening more checks on all e vessels fishing in its waters. if france goes ahead with a series the proposed sanctions, the escalating disputes is linked to a post briggs that fishing agreement. paris is threatening sanctions if the u. k. doesn't grant more licenses to french fishermen? the british government says that would put you in breach of a trade agreement. lexia brian explains from pars, the british captain has been summoned to appear in court in august next year. he's accused of fishing in french waters without a license. he had on board about 2 tons of scallops. when his boat was checked and seized, taken to the french port of the half earlier this week. now those checks were part of this escalating route between the u. k and france over the rights to fission british waters and particularly waters around the island of jersey. a u. k. crown dependency that lies just 22 kilometers of the french coast. francis wasn't given the licenses it deserves, and that is expected under the post bricks at trade deal, and that has got it incredibly frustrated. so on tuesday is it said it will unveil what it's colon targeted measures. if it doesn't get the license, it licenses it wants, it said that it will stop british vessels from docking and french ports that it will stay pop chicks, time consuming health and a health and safety checks on trucks going in and out of the u. k. and that could have an impact on shops like the one behind me, because france is the gateway to europe for all of those british fishing vessels and the fish that they try to sell it to the continent. there are lots of measures underway to try and prevent that happening, including possibly booking a brush, half meeting in rome. the sunday on the sidelines at the g. 20 meeting between president emmanuel mccall and the u. k. prime minister boris johnson. now both sides are being accused of ramping up the tension to play to a domestic audience. president mccall will be standing for re election in april next year, and the votes from those c side towns we're fishing, is a lifeline. could be crucial to his re election. barry d. s. is the chief executive of the national federation of fishermen's organizations. he says the situation is both political and technical and will not be easily resolved. there is a lot of concern, of course 2 of our vessels have been detained, arrested. this may be normal enforcement proceedings, but on the other hand, that takes place against the background, a very belligerent noise is rhetoric coming from the french government. and france indeed seems to be determined to escalate this issue. to be frank, i find it difficult to, to understand this in fisheries terms. i think there must be an additional element which is domestic french politics because these kinds of issues about the allocation of licenses issuing of licenses can cause these technical difficulties, but they are usually result of a technical level. and indeed i understand that the discussions between the u. k and the you have been proceeding to resolve the standing issues involved. so those licenses will be borderline cases, quite difficult, where the evidence of having fish historically within the 6 to 12 mile limit is absent others. they will be upper judas that are trying to secure the advantage of having a endorse and deficient you say water. so it's highly technical, we would expect progress to be made at that level. very much surprised that it's been escalated to this level and this level of belligerent directory could be used . thousands of protesters have been marching in molly's capital, damica against the presence of french military. france has already begun to withdraw soldiers from its northernmost molly and bases and strips in these a hell region will be reduced around 3000 by 2023. molly's prime minister has accused france of abandoning the country. ah, we went out to day in large numbers to shoot national and international opinion that it is the molly and people who decide their fate. that's where we are here to day. oh, it doesn't matter. if france leaves are always stays, the point is that france is not the best suited to tell a country on

outbreak leagues emails to the reuters news agency show the e is withholding more than $24000000.00 from the un organization. roberts, from a foutz is an investigative journalist who originally broke the story off those w h o abuses, he says the organization must be held to account. i think one of the most important things to emphasize at this point is the overall scale of the scandal. so between our 2 investigations for the new humanitarian and thomson reuters and this commission that was set up by w h o. we're now looking at more than 150 women who have gone on the record to say that they were abused, exploited in many cases, raped by responders working for the ball, the response. overwhelmingly. w h o employees. overwhelmingly foreigners working for w h o. and one of the more striking aspects of this was the fact that the abuser is organized sort of rackets of abuse and indeed use the resources of the response to engage in their view. so as an example, in a number of instances, drivers were sent and marked w h o vehicles w h o drivers to pick up women to ferry them to hotels, which doubled as offices for w h o. where those women were sexually exploited or abused in at least one case a w h o driver was sent in a mark w h of vehicle to kidnap a minor was brought to one of these hotels and was raped by a w h o employee. the reality is that it is the case that you funds as well as world bank funds, u. s. government funds, u k fund. all the funds that went toward this response did indeed enable been sorts of responds these sorts of abuse rather on a massive scale. so it can be said that it is potentially a very small helpful 1st measure to hold w h o to account for things that occurred in this country. and it's important that you put on the table the requirement that restitution be paid to victims of the sorts of abuse. the prime minister haiti has condemned the gangs responsible for a wave of kidnappings insisting they'll be brought to justice. his address comes
