during europe's 1st experiment with democracy. what is a steep climb up and in the spirit of 21st century inclusiveness, the current government has decided to make the monument more accessible to visitors . a new cement walkway enables wheelchair access and the authorities now plan to add rails and braille signs for the visually impaired. what's the answer to bush, ma'am? i've seen people in wheelchairs who came up for the 1st time and felt happy. i think this is something that should also make us happy, hasn't gone yet, that has demanded, but not everyone is happy. some politicians and academics and say the new additions are ruining the classical stomachs in among over the course. this site was never pay, except it was always just the rock throughout history. if there had been a ramp, it would have been paved with marble or stone, but that never existed, alas, benefit except for some foreign tourists say they aren't bothered by the modifications. this is one of the most recognizable sites on the entire planet. and with the techno

and the fear by our domestic industry and labor force that they will export more to europe and in europe and export more twice. and that's why we put tariffs on to europe, and there are ways to try to deal with this. what are called tariff quotas, that, that you might be able to, the europeans have to read it. that mean the reality is we can get the chinese to reduce their, our capacity. and after years of talking about this, the trump administration finally acted and politically, it's very difficult for joe biden to say to the steel industry and the steel workers were not going to afford you this level of protection anymore. but you're right and are allergic issue with europeans for understandable reasons, but it's not at all clear how we resolve that on f. ganna. stan, i mean there's a little bit of pushback here. i mean, it's true from my understanding that we, we didn't negotiate with the europeans about the pull out. we just announced it. and that the excuse given by the bible people is, well, they should have known what we're going to do because by and talked about it in the campai

and i don't think they should have a ride to live in, in europe, or any other country that should be determined by the african political forces that take place now. and also, i don't think that the embassy personnel should be good. i mean, this is a normal transfer power that with you know, and it's a very peaceful one. it that the african army is not very small part of the economic actually fighting the taliban. most of them are just quote, working together with the taliban because they want their country back. they want to end the occupation. and so this is a very peaceful thing. there were thing i heard that the russian embassy and hobble was not evacuating any office personnel because they believe that there will be business as usual. and they will work together with the new forces in power. and that's what every embassy should do in my, in my opinion, what is the general mood is in germany over the west and pull out of the confederacy. for most people are gonna stand, has been an issue that they've been aware of, that they haven't been maybe focusing on particularly closely. but

do you think europe can handle another of us as the 1000000 dollar question? many people here don't want to see a repeat of what happened. 56 years ago with the migration crisis that unfolded then, and certainly speaking to people here on the streets of paris, many of them are nervous that we could be seeing a dis, a room, a piece of that migration crisis again, as far as europe itself goes the continent is split particularly in terms of what to do with african refugees who've made their way. yeah. but actually don't have the white papers in terms of remaining in us as refugees. we did see a number of countries, right. and later to the european commission, insisting that they have the right to same back to have gunnison, those african refugees who don't fit the criteria. but subsequent to that, we did see a number of countries backtrack. so we simply seen the slips inside europe itself in terms of what to do with these migraines. the main concern being expressed by european countries is that they don't have the capacity actually to handle another huge wave of

on it china's gateway to europe. starts feb 19th on d w. number $46.00 has taken the oath of office and now it's off to work u.s. president biden wants to provide from demick relief and fix the u.s. economy experts views on how that could go down also on the program germany gives farmers a high take to help them become a bargain to friendly but there is a technical hitch. i'm chris cuomo welcome to the program u.s. president joe biden's an auger ation set the tone for his economic policy for the coming months and years at the top of the agenda guiding america's way out of the coronavirus crisis a reporter a day of winter because as his opinion of biden's our hero address. if one word could summarize biden's speech it is unity with the new president highlighting the need to overcome the pandemic and economic devastation together with unity we can do great things important things we can right wrongs we can put people to work in good jobs we can teach our children in safe schools we can overcome the deadly virus we can

again, this is a gateway country into europe. there are countries like australia who are still even now semantic plans for the deportation of failed afghan asylum seekers. back to afghanistan as a means of deterring future arrival. so this is a.

what is europe expecting from this trip? what? how are they seeing america and president biden at this moment from your view? well, obviously, europeans have lingering concerns from the last 4 years. this is difficult period both in terms of the pressure on the traditional transatlantic relationship, whether it was trade, whether it was politics, whether it was security, the message from washington very often sounded like if our way or the highway. ready there was quite a lot of 0 sum pressure and 0. so i'm thinking and of course i thought to reverse all of that, the message is not only we are back, but we're back. we're going to be partners. we're going to go back better and we're going to put the transatlantic relationship in america's allies and the values that we share at the very center of our quotes to the wider world in the set of problems . including, of course, russia, china, and transnational challenges like climate change, demick the president has to deal with. now you talk to national security and intelligence official

in europe. he's trying to say, as he said in self riley to the global to what chris's around himself around against the soft players as well. but how willing is europe to follow? why washington leave? because if we're talking, for example, the market, especially talking about gasoline, 40 percent of back are, comes from russia. they don't want to cut off the pipeline, they need to my, for on the 15th. so how willing all day should have been to america as well. ok, that's very good question because there is no human at amity except on the southern side and come. so it would be multilateralism idea as the good old can may to id but everybody knows the american mean. everybody behind me and they are looking at their own in europe in some digest, especially germany, been by just reading while the fact that the americans and it was the republicans as well as democrats, came up with sanctions against our regions of germany, against cities, against companies, just like for iran because you actually alt

but this is an incredibly thorny issue in europe. it's led to the downfall of governments in recent years. it's spawn right quick movements in almost every country, governments i think will certainly be on their god. if not, all of them actively preparing to accommodate what may soon becoming their way or a journey. thanks for that to jehovah in london. well, as well, watch the fall of afghanistan to the taliban at the white house. president joe biden is confronting the biggest crisis of his presidency in his 1st address after the taliban seas couple biden defended his decision to pull out troops and blamed the african government and the military for the crisis from washington as she returns he. joe biden attempted to keep public opinion focused on a promise kept up to 20 years. the u. s. was finally leaving f honest on i stand squarely behind my decision. after 20 years, i've learned the hard way that there was never a good time withdraw. us forces but neither the president or any administration official has been able to address the

and there may be confrontation in europe. may be so severe that russia will be russian sovereign government funds may be frozen. and western banks, especially in america banks since they are in treasury, that can be frozen. and but you wind or gold in both moscow cannot be frozen. so, and there's a problem. there's no rush in the finance institutions or repairing that may be a swift won't be working for russia. there's a rush is actually bracing for a possible downturn as, as very catastrophic down there. and this may happen this summer was about maybe preventing that. but that's a serious possibility. i mean, that's big money and big money losses, right? russia is not mobile right now away from john at all. okay, glenn, what do you think about the, the china issue? i mean, the, some reports seem to suggest that the u. s. is taking to sort of, quote, unquote, normalize relations with russia, mainly because of china. do you agree with that? well, the united states open about to decide to travel, which between china and russia,

the council of europe has issued its latest verdicts on human rights and democracy in europe. makes unpleasant reading. europe's democratic environment and institutions that says are in mutually reinforcing, decline. we talked a lot about democracy and human.

so just one story dominating from eastern europe as the migrant crisis on the bell roof. poland border continues to unfold with warsaw, now threatening to cut off railway traffic with its non eager neighbor. has as thousands of asylum seekers wait on the frontier in the hope of entering the european union. and as you can see from these latest pictures, released by the bela russian authorities is a gray, a wintry picture army and police on one side of the barbed wire. and these migrants on the other trying to keep warm and the chill of the onset of winter keeping fires going as best they can with wet wood. some little basic provisions, but no sanitary provision and scant medical help to a desperate position to be in and not allowed to go anywhere either the a you being their dream. but those dreams so dashed for now, and the foreseeable future, at least me well, the british army has sent 10 engineering specialists to the polish side of the border to assess the barbed wire barrier that had been put up. and that an effort to prevent any further influx turkey in iraq have band direct fligh

k, but the rest of europe is not as badly affected. it is dealing with delta change to the blue map, actually i'll change back and forth. have a look at the change across europe between the all micron and the delta maps. you can say there is a lot more delta to deal with in europe as there is a in south america and pots of southeast asia. now, just to give us a slightly different take of chosen 9 different countries here. and we're looking at their share of different infections. the red is omicron, the blue a delta infection. so starting at the top, south africa has got a rate of 96 percent on the crowd. now maybe that's a good thing. having more cases of the milder variance further down the list, let's look at the united states, for example here, which is sort of got a 6040 splits between the 2. but i think what's interesting and i'm gonna try to draw a box around all of them. here are these european countries, italy, france, and germany with rights of 80 to 90 percent of delta. the more concerning variance, if i can put it that way o

in comparison with world powers, europe's defense spending has been far behind. although europe biggest and 2nd biggest economy, germany and france rank 7 and 8 out of the top 10 spenders. so 14 european countries this year proposed the rapid response force to help democratic foreign governments needing urgent help in 2007 the you set up battle groups of 1500 personnel to respond to crises, but they've never actually been used. it also established a 7900000000 euro european defense fund to finance the next generation of war planes, tanks and ships. the money will only be available to your opinion, defense companies in washington as already raised competition concerns. however, there is a little known fund that has gone under the radar, the 5000000000 euro european piece facility. it'll provide training and equipment, including for the 1st time weapons to non european military forces around the world . of the prospect of europe giving alms to dictators or on democratic forces, especially in the south hell in north west africa is raising concerns. france is in the

great through europe. the china has now become its name and most important partner in terms of creating a new economic infrastructure coming everything from autonomous, the technology of transportation for those banking and across the board. and obviously the sanctions against russia has increased or intensified this development to great extent, but i think it's open the top rated that concerns the rosshouse about china. so far, china has been pretty much in the deal park before russia. this idea that his tears being the junior brother, i think that's also saturated, because the russian doesn't really have any hedge him on the conditions across the, the ration space subtle. and also when china enters a lot of these regions, such as central asia, it's always cautious to turn to harmonize the interest with russia. and this is very much as our contrast with the europeans and americans often always tried to peel away in russia, the neighbor. so again, ukraine, george, i'm also about the central ations turkey,

but this is europe. man on the moon moment. the you aims to make europe the 1st climate neutral continent by 2050. that means no more carbon should be admitted into the atmosphere than what's absorb. for example, by forests. as a 1st step on this journey, you leaders have pledged to cut emissions by 55 percent by 2030. but critics say these cuts are nowhere near enough to meet the goals of the 2015 paris agreement. others hear less wealthy you countries and many of its poor citizens won't be able to afford the measures. the e. u, though, has promised to help lower income households and fight climate change by introducing a package of new laws. we want to cross over now to tim gore in stock, home sweet and he's the head of the low carbon and circular economy program at the institute for european environmental policy. that's a sustainability think tank. it's based in brussels. it's good to have you on the show him me. this is an ambitious plan that europe is presenting to itself and the world. is it what is needed to meet the pro

they vote that not to deport them, would motivate more refugees, to flee to europe. we would like to highlight the urgent need to perform returns both voluntary and non voluntary to ghana. stan stopping return sends the wrong signal and is likely to motivate even more afghan citizen to leave the home for the e. u. the situation in afghanistan is deterioration by the all when it comes to the us and nato prepaid to what's called a troops at the end of the month. after decades long war, the situation is so bad that the netherlands, germany, and france have decided to cause the deportation to be for now. the situation in afghanistan is likely to change and events for the coming period are so uncertain that i have decided to introduce a more atoria on deputation decisions and departures. agrees, or stress belgian and denmark standing. they want the rejected, assign them because the e u is not really and does not have the capacity to kind of another major migration crisis. why your guns are waiting, make up around 10 to sit until asylum seekers. they're the 2nd largest gro

they have already rested back areas near. cobbled the telephone take over, rips open old wounds in europe, where there are mounting fears of a possible repeat of the 2015 micra crisis. and 20 years and 3 trillion dollars later us political commentator shares his thoughts on whether the war was worth it about. we invade the inner cities of america and we bring a health care to those people. we bring shelter to those people. we bring medicine, those people, we bring counseling to those people. how about we invade america and we start trying to help americans. ah, my brother because he wanted to read from our studios in moscow. this is our to international. i'm showing thomas in the glad to have you with us. now 3 people are confirmed to be killed in the african city of july, about where telephone fighters opened fire on a protest against the groups. seizure of power a dozen more were injured. it comes a day after the militants bound to bring peace to the country. the. the group opened fire after people started taking down the groups, black and white banner and flying the african national fl

and in europe. so he is definitely going to talk about that and he has the backing of american life. we still quite strong statement from nato, from the g 7 leaders on that issue. however, here again, we have to say that flat me put in is not likely to listen. biden said he will also confront putin with the allegations that russian hackers are behind cyber attacks on the american infrastructure. how contentious is this going to be very contentious. i would say this topic is at the top of the agenda up to a number of far reaching cyber attacks on you as companies. some of them had rush and fingerprints on them. so joe biden is expected to demand from russia to do more to deter as such a text from within russia, borders and vladimir putin has signaled that he is ready to do something he was talking about swapping cyber criminals with the u. s. i don't think that this is going to be enough. well, joe biden. and additional you have to say that at least according to the us intelligence agencies. in some

just one story dominating from eastern europe is the migrant crisis on the battle ropes. poland border continues to unfold with war, so now threatening to cut off railway traffic with its non ag neighbor that says thousands of asylum seekers wait on the frontier in the hope of entering the european union. meantime, the british army sent 10 engineering specialists to the powder side of the border to assess the bob why a barrier that's been put up. and in an effort to prevent any further influx, turkey and iraq have band direct flights to battle roost full syrian jamini and iraqi citizens. a bell ro supplies migrants of the border with humanitarian aid. as poland remains relentless in its decision to not let anyone in, president potent stressed that the youth reaction to the crisis has been inhumane. a level humanitarian a, she should be at the forefront. but when at the board of the polish military beat migrants shoot over their heads with military weapons, 10 sirens and lights on at night in those places where children and women including pregnant women are how can this fit with the id

i actually succeed in preventing region a war in europe happening this summer or not. we'll see it will last by and said in 6 months we'll see ok. success, right, let's look at the other issue. cybersecurity for one, which was a big one. how significant was it that president biden's announcement that the u. s . and russia will task experts in both countries to address the threat of ransomware attacks? i think there's an important, well, so far it's not an achievement is a statement of intention but, but nonetheless, i think it's significant because russia for a while offered united states to develop corporation on this issues. however, so far the u. s. us formulated the problem more as being preventing russia from doing any sondra activities which are not completely legitimate now. but like most other issues, there's always been this restraint on the american projects idea of mutual constraint. if i did that one side should be constrained. so again, the united states should, i think there's a police russia which is not acceptable to them. so that's to have this agreeme

the council of europe has student life is verdict on human rights and democracy in europe. and it makes unpleasant reading. europe's democratic environment and institutions that says are in neutrally reinforcing, decline. we talked a lot about democracy and human rights on this program for the good time, holding politicians to account for actions for the peace when danger of those rights. but the situation is now so critical, always decided to question a leading official is trying to protect human rights about why that protection is famous. dounia me out of it is commissioner for human rights to the counselor, and she's always been out of stuff. what is it gone so spectacularly wrong? the dounia may out of edge welcome to comfort zone. thank you. 2 months ago you press the emergency button on human rights in europe. you said 2020 had been a disastrous year for those rights on the continent. one of the bleakest assessments to be heard for a long time. do you think anybody is listening to your warning? well, i hope so. it is something that is affecting us all, no matter which

we've moved almost from people trying to get in to europe over dingus. no, they're trying to get through for us in the middle of winter. we know climate change is going to be an ongoing battle, and we know europe clearly does not want to take in any refugees at this point. how do you see this situation unfolding in the years to come to are you optimistic or tall that people will have a change of heart in europe about welcoming and asylum seekers? well, be sure is not that black and white. there are still people and there are many people who wish to pass. i met those people in your last 4 days. i mentioned amazing, you know, local population, young human rights defend their fire brigade, dr. but what the problem here is more to do with political decisions and policies and lack of a clear view on how to also more legal routes to the people in need and people on more. so i think, you know, when, when it comes to put, trying hold there, there will be change. but it comes to possibilities to apply for a dial tone. and also for people to, to see, shall come to

it's only natural that a new wave of refugees from there is expected in europe. it's obvious that austria can close its borders. it has already regularly tightened. it's fallen policies recently. the justice minister for the green party says more such steps wouldn't be right for the country. the asylum law who's already been tightened in recent years . i will lose often enough options, but we just have to apply them in a consistent manner. moreover, and 2019 the european court of justice ruled that you members have no ride to the port a refugee even for committing a serious crime. if he or she prove that live by home would be in danger. all of this does seem to tie the hands of chancellor kurtz, who like you've heard, is in favor of dissertations for criminals. the minister of interior from mr. kurtz is party has locked horns with the greens justice minister saying he will push for more rigid migration and repatriation rules at the level. the e u. asylum system is not working, migrants who committed criminal offenses have to be reported immediately. while the adv
