let's go back to brussels and i can tell you that what's even more ridiculous is that such high profile officials as the president of the european council had to explain themselves and why he didn't stand up for as callie in turkey and give explanations about his behavior. i was convinced that any reaction among the public could be perceived lism there was a risk of provoking an even more serious incident which would reduce the already fragile chills of having listening to relations with turkey. as we just heard the chances of good relations are already fragile so if we can just for a moment aside what was the actual purpose of this meeting this high level diplomatic meeting and i encourage rory this is what makes the situation even more absurd because in the 1st place the e.u. officials headed to turkey to try and mend the ties between the bloc and ankara because over the past decade under president on many issues there were many stumbling blocks in relations between ankara and brussels like on the things like migration border control customs arrangements and they went there to build b

doesn't really have a choice because brussels fos pick astra zeneca has become vaccine non-grata after it's linked to red blood clots at this point it would probably struggle to print out its vaccine for free let alone charge for it johnson and johnson's hit the pause button over the same concern on the european medicine agencies not keen on approving any of the shots at the moment so the pfizer job stands as the sole savior or 12 no 15 no 19 and a half years of it that's if you don't count those 3 surprise a likely scenario is that there will be likely a need for somewhere between 6 and 12 months and then from the there will be an annual leave marks a nation but all of that needs to be confirmed a vaccine with reduces in the 1st year and a booster annually after that what a tiny little way to keep those billions coming in to hell with cooperation to hell with morality to hell with humanity you really have to hand it to pfizer even in a pandemic it's just another day another dollar meanwhile the tiny european country of san marino is enjoying a return to pre-code normality things to su

but rory let's go back to brussels because what's even more ridiculous such high ranking officials as the president of the european council they were asked to explain themselves why he didn't stand up for his e.u. colleague well here is what the answer was. i was convinced that any reaction among the commons could be perceived as lism there was a risk of provoking an even more serious incident which would reduce the already fragile challenge of having listening to the relations with turkey. well as we just heard the chances of good relations are already fragile so i guess sofa aside what was the actual purpose of this meeting in ankara warry don't giggle because the actual purpose was to mend ties between turkey and the so this is where it all began and how it's gotten even worse i mean. over the last decade or so the relations between turkey and the word difficult but then you see the 2 top sides decide to come together see what they can try and do about it and then come so for gate yes of course there are difficult issues like issues of migration border control customs arrangements
