They were implemented in 1997 after the city was handed back to china from british rule. True or not. Tell me where you went, you think, turn to the shia who feel it is a necessary measure in order to maintain the rule of law in hong kong. And the Constitutional Order of the special autonomous region where yet they fight is rational and reasonable. And in line with the constitution and laws they recently moved to clamp down on opposition, voices in hong kong by imposing a National Security law. After months of antigovernment protests, hong kong semi autonomous status was originally guaranteed until 2047, but for some the end date has already arrived. Ok, lets take a look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world. You know, many of protesters have taken to the streets for a 3rd day calling for the resignation of the Prime Minister. The demonstrations come after he gave up large parts of the disputed new going back region in a peace deal with azerbaijan. Political talks on libyas future have achieved a breakthrough.

Or to talk some more about the critical issue of Global Distribution were joined now by right, youll see a woman in miami, shes, a policy fellow at the center for Global Development in washington. D. C. , thanks for your time. You just published an article titled, vaccine breakthrough to refute news for the west, but in low and middle Income Countries, terms and conditions apply. What do you mean by that . Well, so its great to be with you tonight and thank you for the opportunity to talk. So what we mean is that theres several issues that we see in terms of how this vaccine news will impact low and middle Income Countries. So as you say, the European Union has in to deal for 300000000. 00 doses of this vaccine. The United States is entitle to up to 600000000. 00 doses total of this vaccine. Other wealthy countries have also deal to ensure their supply of this vaccine. But most lower middle Income Countries, with a couple of small exceptions, including a rule and close during the ecuador, have not, they do not have existing contracts to secure their supply, get this vaccine. And the companies are saying that there were seeing perhaps 1300000000. 00 doses, by the end of next year, we need to keep 2 doses for a vaccination course for it to be effective. So that 650000000 people, thats not enough for the entire world. And right now, a small number of countries are counting. The vast majority of that projected supply, rive. The World Health Organization for their part has a short day w. And then interview on monday to even distribution to include the developing world to do you see it that way . There may be a limited distribution to the developing world, but there are several issues for why this axiom is unlikely to be distributed in mass to the developing world. So 1st is the total supply of the vaccine. 1300000000. 00 doses is not enough to go around by my back of the, on the lookout and 6 wealthy country purchasers. And one of those is the air in cut union are, have accounted for over 1100000000 of those services. So theres just not that much left after those countries are accounted for. The other major problem is that even if lower middle Income Countries could get their hands on, the fact in this vaccine needs whats called an ultra cold chain. That means it needs to be stored at negative 70 or negative 80 degrees celsius. This requires specialized equipment, specialized transport, specialized distribution networks. So this just explore this have been in progress, have been planned for many months in europe and the United States. But the enterprise ensuring that alter cold chain in most low and middle Income Countries would be a nonstarter, except perhaps in some major cities. Virtual superman policy fellow at the center, for Global Development in washington. D. C. , thanks so much for your time. Thank you.

Correspond teri schultz reports from brussels. The rules being rigorously enforced tines up for corona virus. Rule breakers in belgium, the warnings didnt work to convince people to wear masks, limit gatherings, to 4 people and obey the evening curfew. So the next step is strict enforcement by police inspectors, like emily chua and kester. Theyve become the belgian authorities, last line of defense against the sky. High infection rate, their weapon, a 250 euro, fine people must go in for their orders are to accept a few excuses when they get 5 years through. Is that where he is most real person there . For a lot of money or something fierce. Look, everybody knows. Just say for everyone, its not for us to use able to eat or not know their business. Their business is to make sure that what the Prime Minister has called the last chance to get control of the virus isnt wasted. The fear of having it take its having a fine is going to stop some people from committing infractions. Of course, theyre going to be behaviors that we are forcing or indeed stopping to disease. Theres one area where officers are being more tolerant now than during the 1st wave of the pandemic. Thats for people who cant stay home because they dont have one. During the last lockdown, many of them received fines, plain clothes officer, chris thunder. How to is in a special police unit designed to help get people off the streets. He and his colleagues asked the corona patrols to take it easy on the homeless this time around. The ideal scenario that it would be that we have place and shelter for everybody. But were not in that situation for the moment. We have to be a little bit flexible for those people. More working like sense and sensible eyes, them to, to wear the mask, to keep their distance. But theyre part of the street. So theyre in the streets as a last resort to those who must or want to stay outside can now get a document to show the police and avoid a penalty or how to agrees that for the rest of the population.

For now, matheny help for me and all the team here in berlin. Thanks for watching. Visionary and a pragmatist, the diplomat who always gets straight to the point the good to institutes outgoing director close to tellem on the last cultural diplomatic starts nov 16th on d w. E. The palace of justice in nuremberg. After the 2nd world war, nearly 200 defendants were brought here to be held accountable for 12 years of dictatorship, military aggression, terror, and mass murder. At the heart of proceedings was the International Military tribunals which tried key war criminals from germany. The 4 victorious powers responded to the nazis once in a millennium crimes. With a once in a millennium trial, on nov 20th, 1945 some 20 high ranking nonsi leaders were brought by elevator to the court in room 600. The former rights mashal Hermann Goering willingly took on the role of most senior nazi he was followed by grand admiral karl dern. Its who hitler had appointed as president of the reich in his will. And rudolf hess, hitlers former deputy. The defendants never showed the slightest remorse. It was part of their stars, their pride to insist that they were right all the time and would do it again. They stood accused of conspiracy to carry out wars of aggression, war crimes, and crimes against humanity. The defendants were ruthless ministers and fanatical ideologues, merciless military commanders and barbaric enforcers of hitlers maniacal will. They had come into the dark as if this was not a fair proceeding, as if they knew they were going to hang already and why go through others. But the thing that the allies were the most unfair about this occurred for the 1st time in history, an entire states leadership in the dark to the high ranking nazi officials and military leaders. It was a case of the winners putting the losers on trial. Its got to be domiciled for sure. At the time, i couldnt imagine that there were any reasonable grounds on which to accuse these and their later. Of course, i understood it better to shove them no movie torrijos, nation or alliance had ever attempted anything as bold or complex as what the allies were now doing with the surviving representatives of the 3rd reich. The prosecutors goal was nothing less than a global realignment brought about through the law. This was not a trial of germans alone. This was a trial for humanity. This was a trial does to prevent terror, me from raising its head again and the only place in the world. Of the nuremberg 945, the old Imperial City of the middle ages, lay in ruins. After nearly 6 years of war, nazi germany had capitulated unconditionally 60000000 people were dead. The cost of at all, fiddlers murderous quest for world domination. Germans who once zealously followed their fuehrer, now wanted to forget. The main concern for most people was overcoming hunger and hardship. They werent interested in the fate of the nancy leadership in may. When rice marshall, Hermann Goering, was taken prisoner in austria. It became clear that this war was not going to end the way those in the history books had. Gurning had been certain the americans would accept him as negotiator, but then he had to surrender his pistol and was arrested even then, going still believed the victorious allies couldnt govern germany without him. Being charged with a crime seemed completely out of the question. American reporters were allowed to interview goering. He used his skill in chan to set himself apart from the realities of the war. He claimed to have fallen out with hitler some time earlier. If hed known what was happening in the concentration camps. He said he would have taken vigorous action. He wanted to be now after him as the number one nazi which of course is interesting because hitler had selected durned thats right. I have but then its too bad success. Never really accepted that and you could sense sort of a feeling of upstaging. He was still a man who had perhaps chosen to be the number 2 man. And he should have been the right foot successor to i dont think he thought he was going into exile. I go to as a fan, she is for like napoleon, but not even his own people would accept the vein gurren as their new fuehrer in flensburg, in may. 945 grand, admiral calderon, its as hitler successor, appointed high profile. Nazis like armaments minister, albert speer, and high ranking military commanders like alfred your dil to his cabinet. They acted as if they govern Germany Holding daily meetings. But they had no power. The most important perpetrators were already dead. Both adult hitler and propaganda minister yourself gerbils had taken their own lives. In berlin, the russians displayed gerbils charred body with the help of a cyanide capsule. S. S. Leader Heinrich Himmler also evaded prosecution. He had tried in vain to join donators government disguised as a regular soldier. Himmler was picked up by a British Patrol before committing suicide. At the end of the war, the nazis monstrous crimes had come to light. When the americans liberated order of concentration camp into riga, they found few survivors. The conditions were indescribable. Along with the u. S. Troops, specialists came to the liberated camps to secure evidence and to arrest potential war criminals. My mind just refused to grasp what my eyes saw. I was coming in there to prove the crimes, and these people who are ly
