. >> austria's lower house of parliament this thursday has passed a bill that would make it compulsory for adults to get vaccinated against covid-19 from february 1, the first such mandate in the european union. >> it is controversial, and there is a split in some senses right down the middle of austria because we have here one of the lowest vaccination rates in europe. about 71% only fully vaccinated, and sizable support for the far right party, the freedom party, which is visceral in its opposition to this law. that means there are quite a few people in austria who are opposed to the law, who are angry that it has been passed, who are still under lockdown because they have not been vaccinated -- even though there is not a full lock down here in austria, there is one for people who have not been vaccinated -- and we have seen heated debate in parliament preceding the passing of that law, led by the leader of the far right freedom party, who used incendiary language, talking of approaching totalitarianism and undemocratic actions. of course, that serving to further fire up the street.

those as a body has more from vienna, cases have fallen sharply here in austria since november 22nd. that's when this country became to 1st in western europe to re impose a full lockdown for over a month. before that point. their daily cases were over 15000 people being infected and that this is a country of nearly 9000000. they've already lost over 13000 people to the corona virus, and over a 1000000 people have been in fact, the chief medical officer and austria said that this is not a time to celebrate referring to new year's eve celebrations. and that's why there's been a curfew. and post all the restaurants will be closing at 10 pm local time. so anybody who goes out for celebrations has to be out of those facilities by 10 pm. the officials are hoping that the can also improve the vaccination rates only 70 percent of last areas are fully vaccinated. this is a country that will be one of the 1st thing. western europe also imposed as vaccination mandates. as of february, 1st it will be mandatory for people to be fully vaccinated to be able to go anywhere in this country. the offic

austria is one of those examples where they have taken a very cautious approach. and they still are. the chancellor announced over the weekend that restrictions would be eased. so the curfew, for instance, on bars and restaurants would be eased, the number of people allowed at gatherings would be eased. they're even going easier on the unvaccinated. and remember, austria has not been kind to those who have held out on getting the vaccine. since november, there have been stay-at-home orders for the unvaccinated, with very few exceptions, allowing them to go out. that is ending on monday. and even though the vaccine mound will start being enforced in austria, the only country in europe so far to have one, the austi austrians are going to let the unvaccinated go to restaurant and bars in about two weeks, provided that sththey can show negative test. case counts in austria are hitting record highs, but officials there think they can see that the end is near, so they're letting restrictions down, knowing that they have some confidence that hospitals are not going to be

. far away from romania, but he's actually vienna, austria. actually the no problem actually. i totally agree with you on the ground has been some kind of a positive negative story. other than a sense of people thought that now that it's not such an aggressive buyer is not such an aggressive, very hospitalizations are still high. however, it is, death rates are not as high as a dollar variance. that was a good message, but the bad message was everybody seems together and the positive that rates are exploding terribly. so that's an issue we have to handle. and right now i think that stephanie way too, and all the officials and sorties are somehow sounding more positively. why do you think that this is all of this study shows that sputnik is more effective than a jap like 5. why would there be such a difference? well, remember, those are any viruses i, renee, vaccines are targeting parts of the protein so called spice proteins. and by chance, whether that is something that happened by chance or it was a mutation that was done because actually, o

there are also very specific rules here in austria when you want to go anywhere, even the source as a special math are required, not any kind of mastic is accepted and is also a very strict test and trace policy. you have to be tested every 48 hours to enter any store. you have to show a negative p c r test. that is no older than 48 hours. so there is a continuous search of people being tested across the country. all of this is in their hopes that's at the country will be able to write out the next wave that is coming with the on the chron at variance of the corona virus. well, the new year brings with it's the was largest free trade agreement, which has come into force and the asia pacific region. the deal is called the regional comprehensive economic partnership or asset. it was signed in 2020 and it's set to ease trade barriers between 50 nations. they are china, japan, south korea, australia and new zealand, and 10 members of the association of south east asian nations. the deal aims to slash 90 percent of tariffs between those countries. trade in the region stood at $2.00 trillio

and so you mentioned austria. yesterday, the austrian chancellor said that while the mask mandate for crowded places is going to stick around, the rules around the curfew are getting loser and the rules around the number of people allowed at a gathering are getting looser as well. austria is even making things easier for the unvaccinated. and remember, austria has not been kind to vaccine holdouts. they've been under a stay-at-home order since november. so while the vaccine mandate for the entire country will start being enforced in mid-march, well, two weeks from now, the unvaccinated will be allowed to go back to restaurant and bars, provided that they can show a negative test. remember, this is happening at a time where austria is hitting record highs for case counts with no signs of slowing down. that is also the case in many other places in europe, places like sweden, poland, romania, czech republic, and turkey. in turkey, they are not panicking, not in the slightest. the health minister tweeted yesterday tha

they still exist in austria, germany, switzerland, northern italy, slovenia, poland, and slovakia. these are forests left to their own devices where rivers flow freely and we're big predators like wolves, bears, and lynx is, are now slowly returning. how is the process going? how much wilderness can central europe tolerate? how much does that need? and while forest without lodge predators like the wolfy on the bed and the lynx fill somehow empty, that's what we've learned and risen. isn't that hungry and as beautiful as nature can be? it seems incomplete. without lodge predators, unfortunately, we know this because we've gotten to know the parts of central europe that are to exaggerate a bit full of bears. like southern st. lavinia are full of wolves, like lucia in germany, or lynx, is like in our homeland austria or dr. luc santander. her modern research is this lisa. it's hard to describe since it if you walk through a forest at home to bez links, isn't wolves in it heightens your senses and maybe you realize that you're not at the top of the food chain. oh though, actually in th

i still form a foreign minister of austria, whether nato will arrive at the unified position. i think this cracks have been around, at least since 2002, 2003 when we them saw the preparation for the the iraq war. and i would say, what was the case? the iraq could turn even harsher. in the case of your claim, i think that need to show very alert about its real fitness to, to confront another crisis. it has been not even 6 months since the district mand us defeat in couple of the whole native presents was dismantled, was in a few hours by some garcia, various coming from the hindu kush mountains. so the biggest military lines will defeated there in a very humiliating way. that never was any serious maneuver critique why if it was fun from no lessons learned. while washington stresses, the needs of diplomacy is the only way out of the crisis. some journalists in america, all striking, a more belligerent, just buying time till they replaced to invade ukraine, making you jump through hoops like and delivering written responses to questions that you, vance, at time, and time again.

assisted suicide is now legal in austria, within a tightly regulated framework. the new law allows people over 18 who are terminally or chronically ill to end their lives, but they will need to be assessed by two doctors. assisted suicide is where someone is given the means to end their own life — it's already legal in switzerland. and has been decriminalised in belgium, luxembourg, the netherlands, and spain. bethany bell in vienna explains how the new austrian law will work. well, this is for people who are terminally ill or people who have a permanent and debilitating condition. they will now have the right to ask for assisted suicide. and, as you mentioned, it will be very tightly regulated — two doctors, one of whom must be an expert in palliative care, have to assess the cases, they also have to assess whether the person is making this decision independently, whether they are able to make this decision independently. and then there will be a 12 week period before the assistance is given. in some cases, that waiting period will be reduced to two weeks if

like scotty, the links who was picked up by a camera trap in the snow of austria's limestone alps. the female lynx is now the cover girl of a book whose title translates as the wild heart of europe. in it, photographers and all says christina's on villa and mark, cough go in search of central europe's primeval forests. they still exist in austria, germany, switzerland, northern italy, slovenia, poland, and slovakia. these are forests left to their own devices where rivers flow freely and we're big predators like wolves, bears, and lynx is, are now slowly returning. how is the process going? how much wilderness can central europe tolerate? how much does it need? and wire forest without lodge predators? like the wolfy on the bed and the links feel somehow empty. that's what we've learned in recent is in the long run as beautiful as nature can be. it seems incomplete without large predators. unfortunately, we know this because we've gotten to know the parts of central europe that are to exaggerate a bit full of bears, like southern slovenia are full of wolves, like lucy, sure in germa

germany, before christmas and austria, was concerned that their vaccine levels were not high enough. austria went the furthest saying it wanted a vaccination, mandatory vaccination and became the first western country to do so, but interestingly over the last week we have seen this shift, and the new german government and the chancellor has said he planned to bring a mandatory vaccinations but he seems to be backing away from that. macron in france has said similar. it's a sensitive subject, he had hoped to bring forward a vaccine, a vaccination pass. this has been delayed and bogged down in the parliament, so maybe again linking to what you were saying, there is a sense that maybe we could be shifting away from the peak and is there a need to bring in this mandatory vaccination now, so i think it'll be a hot political issue for a lot of those big countries in the next few months. that raises questions for the uk because the british government said workers in the national health service from april have to have this, if they front line workers so in social care giving it, the possibil

and particularly with austria, has been weekly protests against code 900 restriction. and now we're getting more more calls from politicians for these types restrictions must be lifted rumbles from the police that they put too much, couldn't monitor those restrictions as well. and what's interesting about the cation street is, while it has a vaccination where you could run 72 to at the moment, that is far lower than say, here in france, where it currently stands at around 78 percent. and other countries are following seat tooth. denmark and england, all, i don't think, restrictions ease, despite the fact that there are all these record cases coming across europe. and of course, there are a warning still for the will tell us that the pandemic is far from over just a few days ago. the head of the room helped me get a. she said, you knew this narrative that could be 19, and these new variance, which is only called, become essentially a mild disease, is simply not the case. and you rip remains the epi sent over this pandemic on health services still being in and take it wi

germany per the terms of the alliance came to the defense of austria. then russia came to the defense of the slavs who wanted independence from the austrians. then germany attacked belgium then britain and france rallied to the defensive belgium. and britain sent the royal navy to guard its oil fields in mesopotamia. so in the blink of an eye, the world is inflamed. that was august 1914 that all of that stuff happened. by 1917 wilson saw only one sane path forward. there must be not a balance of power but a community of power. he said not organized rivalries, but an organized common piece. he explained how this new world order could be brought about. there must first be a peace without victory. he said he believed that peace made by the victors and imposed on the vanquish would not work because the losers resentments were bound to fester and that would poison the peace. wilson also argued that a lasting peace would require every nation regardless of its military and economic strength. to be a court of the same rights as every other nation. and every nat
