katty: given that the u.s. is sitting on contracts worth 1.2 between doses, which is far more than the u.s. population of 320 million actually needs for itself, why not release stockpiles of vaccines right now? we saw in those reports from chile and asia, it is now that people need them. dr. spencer: i've been asking the same question four months. we have -- we have been able to share and donate doses for quite some time. we have more than enough doses fo boosters and to vaccinate 12 euros and to target populations that i guess want to be oversupplied and over prepared, in their own words. that has translated from an abundance of caution to hoarding in the middle of a pandemic. the last three weeks have seen more cases of covid around the world than the first six months of the covid-19 pandemic. and in many places, it is only getting worse. the u.s. has to do its part. we are lucky we have so many vaccines, but we can't close ourselves off from the rest of the world. their public health reasons we need to help

. >> and katty kay, washington anchor for bbc news. welcome to you both. >> pretty hard-hitting questionsing with asked by the journalist. our own keir simmons asking vladimir putin whether or not he's a killer, but this information from boris johnson and the way he's answered it, does it surprise you at all, or is it generally accepted about the difference between the last u.s. leader and the one currently on the stage? >> reporter: i think it could be set enough how different the tone has been between these two american presidents. that has the biggest change. let's be clear. there's substantial stuff being discussed and disagreements in g7, but so much of this is, hobnobbing with invite order world leaders and seemingly off to a good start and friendly rapport. he and prime minister johnson here in the uk, they don't see eye to eye on everything, but there's an effort to strengthen those ties is the linchpin to a united western europe which this president wants to have at his back before he goes into the summit with vladimir putin a

so, ben rhodes -- >> sorry, katty. >> respond to katty if you can. >> yeah, no, katty. there's a number of risks. the first is you do have to be prepared to respond with whatever warning you lay down for vladimir putin. recognizing that he's very likely to cross your lines. whether it's in the cyber domain, whether it's in ukraine. and he's also very likely to deny that he's doing so. my experience in meetings with putin is he spends most of the time debating you denying the very fact that you're presenting him with. i'm not in eastern ukraine. i'm not responsible for these cyberattacks. you're going to hold them to account for he himself is not going to acknowledge. the other danger is coming out of it the russians may want to put a good spin on this summit. they agreed to normalized relations. everything is going to move back in a more stable direction. when their behavior itself is perpetually destabilizing. what they're doing to alexei navalny and belarus and trying to turn democracies against each other and turn us against each other in our democracy here. so i thi

>> that's a great question, katty. the president likes to talk about this being a historical moment, a moment of choice. there are some who believe the top down autocracies generate the best path generating results and there others, like us, who believes democracies and our shared democratic values, freedom, opportunity, rule of law, the dignity of all people, that that's the single best path to delivering results. that is what unifies us. we're going to come together and show, not just in words, words are important, but also in actions. what we're for and what we don't tolerate. simply you hear this week in terms of what we're for, there is going to be an infrastructure initiative that we'll come together on that develops a positive alternative to china's belt and road initiative, one that is much more transparent, one that is driven by our values, one that has high standards. in terms of what we don't tolerate, the use of forced labor. and our consumers should be free of products that are made in that way. i think we

all leading up to this meeting, katty kay, on wednesday with vladimir putin. the secretary of state in a sitdown interview with andrea mitchell, gave a bit of a preview as to what he feels we can expect from the president moving forward. the first thing that you think about in this exchange with president vladimir putin is the ransomware attacks that have been happening in this country over the last kim of months and how he's going to go about approaching putin on this. what do you think at this point the president has in store? how should he go about doing this? >> it's interesting the way that joe biden is approaching that summit with vladimir putin. it reminds me a little bit of the very early trip that tony blinken and lloyd austin took around asia where they went to korea and japan, they shored up america's traditional alliances before meeting with the chinese. so joe biden is doing a little bit the same playbook. this time around with that g-7 meeting, now with the nato meeting, also with the european union meeting, which sometimes gets overlooked but i

let's be honest, our viewers would probably see katty, anyway. when jonathan described dipping his shoulder into five russian security, he wasn't exaggerating. putin is standing there. and i think it's fair to say that president putin may have recognized you when you stepped into the room. >> possibly. i get special treatment there. i did shout questions at him about alexi navalny. he just stared at me, did not respond and sent his friends there to get me out of the room which was truthfully a heated scene. some of my colleagues were knocked to the ground. that set a tone for that day you. reflected the tension that have had have been surrounding that summit since it was announced. >> katty kay is with us and also a man who was roughed up, but he was roughed up at a kentucky fried chicken in nashville yesterday, jon meacham. he occasionally and unofficially advises president joe biden. >> president biden is back this morning after his eight-day tour across europe. the president said the talks were positive while putin called the meeting construct

also with me anchor for bbc news, katty kay and david ignatius. andrea, what else do we know about this vaccine-sharing plan? president biden strikes me as trying to assert u.s. leadership on ending this pandemic in the remarks he gave last hour. >> reporter: absolutely. and, you know, he's had some critics say that the u.s. has not been doing enough. he did 80 million doses before. now this is the biggest that any nation has done. it's going to covax the national consortium vaccines worldwide. he made it clear there are no strings attached. russia and china have been accused of using their vaccines to pressure different countries for other possible concessions. this is a big deal on the eve of the g-7 summit which is going to be collectively doing more, and of course here in the uk, there's been real concern about the india variant and a real return to pretty much a lockdown certainly here at the summit where there is testing of all of us every day for not only the u.s. side but also in response to the british health service. so there is about 45

the bbc's katty kay is still with us. and joining the conversation, we have msnbc contributor, mike barnicle. host of "way too early," casie hundredth, and ed luce. joe, listening to the president at the top of the hour here. he talks about this inflection point, the challenges we face. how democracy is prevailing, america is back but i think the one difference has been the challenge to democracy has been within the u.s. and joe biden's task is to show and tell not only our adversaries that we're in charge again. >> well, you know, there have been ill liberal forces that have been posing challenges to western-style democracies in the united states. we are certainly dealing with it now with a former president who's trying to undermine the results of a democratically run election. but you also have that in other countries in central europe, especially in hungary, some concerns in poland. there's reasons, i think, to separate, though, poland from hungary. i think hungary is a much worse situation right now. and, you know, ed

katty, you're absolutely correct. they're putting us at risk of a surge — but it will not be a nationwide search. —— surge. as you well know, we have a very large country, we have 50 states and a lot of differences among the states with regard to so many features of demography, geography, culture, etc. so we won't going to see if, in fact, we get into trouble, which i'm concerned that we will amongst those who are unvaccinated. we're not going to see that rather large country—wide surge which we sawjust a few months ago, several months ago in the late fall and early winter. what we will likely see would be isolated regionally based surges, particularly among those states that are very, very low on their vaccination percentage, as you had mentioned. dr fauci, you're being attacked on the right — it's very political, covid, in the united states. i think tucker carlson called you the other day "lord fauci, patron saint of wuhan." and he's going after you because he thinks that you dismissed too early the hypoth

katty, the other thing about that video we showed of donald trump, is that he walked in front of the queen, that's a breach of protocol no matter who does it, correct? >> yes, she's actually the queen of the united kingdom, calling her the queen of england would land you in the tower of london, the next time you pay a visit. >> oops. >> that's the queen's guard coming out. the other thing donald trump did was kept her majesty waiting for 15 minutes, which is not seen as appropriate either, as well as walking, although momentarily, in front of her, which is not something you're meant to do. i think the queen has shown an extraordinary side of her character over the last couple of days. this was the first time we've seen her out at public functions since her husband of seven decades almost died, the love of her life, her companion, a hard time for her majesty, yet here she was at the g7 showing her resilience and sense of humor. the moment she sat down, the world leaders sat up straight and behaved a little better, i think that's what people do when she comes into the room. >> katty, w

hello, i'm katty kay in washington, christian fraser is in london. we have been talking about iran's nuclear programme for quite literally years. the very phrase "iran nuclear talks" brings to mind a never—ending struggle, sisyphus pushing the boulder up the mountain, again and again. and with the election of the hardliner ebrahim raisi as iran's new president, joe biden�*s job got even tougher. as a bit of background, the us was one of six countries to reach a deal with iran in 2015. that was under the 0bama administration. most sides agreed that the deal wasn't perfect, but it was a framework and it held. until the former president, donald trump, pulled the us out of that deal and re—imposed sanctions. iran restarted its nuclear activity, though to this day tehran still denies it is developing a weapon. speaking at his first press conference following his election, mr raisi had tough words for the us leadership. translation: my serious suggestion to the us is for them to swiftly - fulfil their agreements. they must lift all sanctions and with

hello, i'm katty kay in washington, christian fraser is in london. i guess it's good to know that organised crime has the same problem you and i do — how to get a cell phone that works and protects your data. so it was smart of the fbi to get in on the market and provide criminal gangs with what looked like secure phones. except, of course, they weren't. the whole network was run by the feds and used, over 3 years, to listen in on criminal operations around the world. leading, today, to hundreds of bad guys being arrested. south american drug cartels, triad groups in asia, criminal syndicates based in the middle east and europe, every message they typed into the encrypted app on these phones, was fed directly to law enforcement agents. and the information they uncovered is stunning. 2kg of cocaine was hidden inside french diplomatic sealed envelopes, that were leaving bogot , colombia. diplomatic bags are typically immune from being searched under the vienna convention. there were drugs hidden in banana shipments. others stored in tuna packages, an

chairman, katty kay has a question for you. katty? >> jaimee, thank you. we've had a delay from the white house in terms of getting legislation through the senate, having had a kind of rapid start to this administration. some of that has been about reaching out for bipartisanship, increasingly, it sounds like that's not the way that the white house thinks it's going to get things done. but i hear so much frustration from democrats over the role of joe manchin. what do you think could be the thing that gets joe manchin onboard with the white house' agenda, including on hr-1 and hr-4? >> i'm sure senator manchin said he was very disappointed in seeing the fact that republicans filibustered an bipartisan commission to look into the roots of the insurrection that we saw on our capitol on january 6th. you know, it's almost unfathomable, that i think back to when i started watching politics and looking at the democrats and republicans and people you could respect. yet you would have a congress who basically had people breaking into the sacred halls of congress l

hello, i'm katty kay in washington, christian fraser is in london. the visuals on american tv are stark and sad — families and children wading rivers or braving deserts, sometimes with their belongings on their backs, in a desperate bid to cross into america. those are just the final steps in a long journey, that often starts in central america, places like el salvador, honduras and guatemala, which is why the us vice president has made herfirst overseas trip to the region — starting in guatemala city. she wants to highlight us efforts to fix the "root causes" of mass migration. she's carrying with her the us chequebook, and a simple idea — if life in these nations is improved, then people won't try to come north to seek a better one. to that end, ms harris and the biden administration are pledging $310 million in immediate humanitarian aid, plus, $4 billion in long—term funds to boost development and security across the region. —— that is part of $4 billion in long—term funds. and it's notjust money — last week the us said it would s

and washington anchor for the bbc katty kay joins us. good to have you all. >> why don't we start with the supreme court decision yesterday on the ncaa, really quickly. it basically said that student athletes could actually be compensated in terms of computers, other school supplies, but brett kavanaugh, at the end wrote this, talking about where the court was probably going to go, brett kavanaugh said that, tradition alone cannot justify the ncaa's decision to build a massive money enterprise on the backs of student athletes who are not fairly compensated. i know you've seen it, i've seen it at alabama over the past 40 years, usually these poor kids coming from rural alabama being recruited, making tens of millions of dollars for the university, they break an ankle, something else, a knee gets busted and they're at the pigly wiggly for the rest of their lives, they get no health care, don't get compensated, nothing. it's been outrageous for a long time. >> it is. and it rocks the foundation of the ncaa theory's case what people love abo
