"And we make sure that those offerings are catering to the local laws of land from a regulatory perspective, from a compliance perspective as well and from a security perspective. Then the application layer that we brought on top of that, whether we work with our partners, many of them who are using solutions customers are using and enabling those partner solutions to carry, to integrate with voice. There again, the security aspects in terms of accessing to that, in terms of providing access to the tenant configuration, as well as ability to look into the records, ability to make sure that I'm able to assign the users with the right privilege so that in some countries, for example, you cannot mix an IP call with a PSTN call. In some countries, you have to keep the data within the local. So all of that was a big requirement which we provide today. And that's been possible because that's how we started our business. When voice was our business, we had to take care of these basic requirements. So when we naturally graduated to providing layers of service on top of it, it kind of extended very easily to be able to cater to that. Now, as we close out our podcast today, can you give us a little glimpse at what Tata Communications' vision is for hybrid work and how it will evolve into the future? So today we are living in very interesting times, right? So I know that there are certain organizations who are looking forward to bringing people back to office. There are some organizations who are still looking at what's the best way to handle the hybrid requirement that's been, I'm sure that's here to stay. So how do you strike a balance has always been the question that every customer asks us when we work with them. I think from a future perspective, there's lots that enterprises will have to plan for. One is the infrastructure planning with hybrid needs. The requirement for the basic infrastructure is very different from what's been in the past, right from having different types of meeting rules, meeting devices in terms of size, in terms of ability to connect with multiple types of UC applications.

"You know, how you incorporate the need in the office ecosystem provide to that capability of, you know, smart devices, meeting devices, intelligent room kits and so on and that's why I feel adoption has increased a lot, it's helped the workforce to, you know, literally be on the go but still be connected and work from anywhere as it kind of removes all the bottlenecks that were existing before. On the disruption side, I just see one specific disruption which is with more and more collaboration tools coming in play while that's opened up a lot of, you know, good things, it's also created a challenge in terms of not too many people are now seeing face to face in many conversations, a lot of conversations don't have video enabled, so that creates a distance in terms of how managers, you know, work with the teams, how, you know, I work with colleagues, for example, and even a lot of customer conversations happen on audio conferences which is good, you see a lot of things on one side but on the other side that the personal touch is probably not that great. So that's the only disruption I see, Doug. That's interesting that the, you know, that we have, it sounds like there's access, all the technical issues seem to be falling in place but the personal touch is something that is very hard to duplicate. Sure, yeah, I definitely feel so. So how has enterprise technology helped boost productivity in the virtual workforce? Several things, I think right from providing a secure network for people who are working from home or working from different locations and then providing their access to different applications that are running in enterprises in a secure way, I think network and security around that network has come a long way. And also a lot of edge computing and security related solutions have allowed people to literally work from anywhere. So today when I'm working from home, my connectivity to my office is as seamless as it is when I'm inside office and working, I have access to all applications, I have security enabled right from, you know, from different applications, different methods,

"This is Doug Green and I'm the publisher of Telecom Reseller, and today I'm very pleased to have with us Sriram Sampath, who's the Vice President of Customer Experience Management and Collaboration Platforms at Tata Communications. Sriram, thank you for joining me today. Thank you, Doug. It's wonderful to be here. Thanks for the opportunity and I'm looking forward to our conversation. Well me too, I'm really happy you were able to set aside a little bit of time to share with our readers what Tata Communications is looking at when we look at hybrid work and when we look at the way work is changing and the way different companies need to accommodate that change and all the challenges involved. This is really exciting for me to learn about what you guys are thinking about that. But could you just tell me a little bit about yourself and your career this far and maybe expand a little bit our understanding of what Tata Communications is today? Sure. The last 23, 24 years that I've been working in this domain, I started my journey as a global support services for a few years and the last five, six years I was working on a technology incubation program to build a certain set of products in the company that I worked for before and that evolved into a product company from a services portfolio to a product company and then we took that to market so to have a good view of both services and product play where in the last stint I was handling the engineering function and the product function. Then I moved on to Tata Communications about three years ago and now manage the collaboration engineering portfolio for Tata Communications and also manage the product portfolio for the collaboration piece of what we call as global rapid which constitutes the voice for that enterprise and then the new cash solutions that go along with it which I'll talk during our conversations.

"And so it really makes it problematic. And if you walk this all the way back, Charlie, this whole Russian invasion of Ukraine stemmed from the Biden administration's fumbling of the Afghan withdrawal. And fractured NATO, and that's another thing the corporate media didn't really cover. NATO was fractured seriously because what I would see performing the duties as under Secretary of Defense for policy, we had a you come into NATO or NATO comes in together in Afghanistan NATO just together and we're going to leave together if we left. And the Biden administration just led a few years and said, hey, we're leaving and there was no lateral coordination, there were 30 some countries in there with everything from 20 person provincial reconstruction teams all the way up to battalion size, combat teams. And so and that Putin saw that. Message, that's strategic failure, message to our enemies, we are not competent at foreign policy. And that lit the fuse on what's happening today in Ukraine. Our two biggest adversaries today foreman and alliance under the strategic agreement. It's rather breathtaking. This is, this will get painted over by the corporate media and they'll blame, figure out a way to blame Trump, of course. But this level of incompetence is breathtaking. Anthony blinken probably the most incompetent Secretary of State we've ever had in the history of this country. He's messing up just absolutely breathtaking what's happening today. Yeah, and so I'm losing confidence in our ability to do the most basic things. You're not exactly restoring it, which is fine. It's just the way it is. I mean, Tony blinken running the State Department right now is a total joke. And so I want to get your thoughts on the Russia Ukraine thing. I mean, I'm sure you've seen her somebody told you, I mean, I don't understand why Russia should be considered an enemy of the United States at all. I'm just curious, what is the argument for that? Well, so in our national defense strategy, which is predicated on our vital U.S. national interests, we list China and Russia is our primary adversaries. And then I ran in North Korea. It's Russia's tendency for hegemony, at least in Europe. And there are mischievous nature of poisoning their foes and putting a try to put a stick in the eye of NATO, that's a fundamental reason. They have illusions of grandeur beyond the current Putin, at least, has that beyond the current Russian border. And we have NATO, NATO has been a very effective alliance for us. They don't pay their fair share and they're using Russian oil two things that president Trump harped on and got improvement in quite frankly. But the alliance in NATO is an important alliance to our country because if you remember, it was predicated on the Marshall plan that created the foundation for democracy and the wake of World War II and capitalist markets in the wake of World War II. And sure, there are some socialist countries in there. But by and large, the European Union and NATO are good trading partner with the U.S.. Same with Japan. And you saw the ascendancy out of the ashes of World War II. And it's important that we keep that relationship. And so I think from a military standpoint, the rotational brigades coming in to demonstrate U.S. resolve to NATO have been a good response. I think diplomacy has been anemic and ineffective to the extent that there's been any tried. The economic sanctions are economic factors. They rarely, if ever work, and then thinking of all the levers of national power, the information campaign has been rather rather anemic as well. So when I think a diplomacy information military economic, the real key levers of national power.

"Well, you know, with all the breaking news today, Charlie about China and Russia forming an alliance while total empires all about China's ascendancy to global hegemony and their drive to do so at all costs. And so the protagonist, which is a recurring series protagonist with macmillan Sam Martin's press, my publisher, Garrett Sinclair, finds himself chasing down his goddaughter in the eye of Africa, which is a an obscure terrain feature in Mauritania near Morocco and the Western Sahara. And or the annexed area of Western Sahara and Morocco. And so what they end up doing is finding a Chinese hypersonic weapon in this area. And of course, and it's a race to prevent hypersonic nuclear vehicles from attacking the United States. And importantly, whenever I have a book that I'm this is my 15th novel, it's always what's that inspiration I was reading the article a couple of years ago about hypersonic weapons and if you put these on space shuttles essentially and orbit, we lose our ability to track ballistic signature, which is how we defend against nuclear threat. So it's a big deal. And so when you say total empire feels more like fact than fiction, there's a lot of that in there. So yeah, the book is total empire and people encourage people to check it out. And so one of the dynamics in the book and also something you dealt with serving in The Pentagon was this idea of obviously the two powers of Russia and China that under president Trump were they were friendly, but they were not as close as they are now. Putin has now flaunting an alliance with Xi as dear Friends. How should we think about this? Yeah, it's a rather breathtaking event that took place today. Of course, the corporate media will give all the top cover to the current administration that they need. And so there won't be any real examination that's up for venues like your show and other outlets that take us serious hard nosed look at this type of journalism. And so really what we have happening is Russia being back now by China makes us Ukraine fight infinitely harder because we thought that Russia we could do some economic sanctions, start them off a little bit. Use our ability to provide weapons into Ukraine and resources to allow them to defend themselves and then death by a thousand cuts on the Russian front there. And Ukraine and let the Russians weather as they impaled themselves on the Ukrainian defenses. That was the general strategy. And now what we're seeing is that ostensibly, China could be backstopping Russia to be able to buy more equipment, have better training, et cetera, et cetera..

"Pope Francis also come out and said that gender ideologies one of the most dangerous ideological forces and colonizations of the day, your thoughts. Yeah, well, the postman been very articulate and forthright on this issue of trans rights and he called it, I think a cultural colonization, it's interesting that that headline gets low coverage, Charlie, while, you know, the changing of the celibacy discipline gets all the front page news. Whenever you're dealing with a figure, particularly like a Pope, it's important, I think, to report them in their complexity and in the totality of their comments because it tends to all fit together. Now Pope Francis does freelance at times and he likes to give interviews and say things in passing, which can be misinterpreted or open to misinterpretation. But so far, he really hasn't changed anything, but he's talked. Many times about revisiting certain things that have been already closed, certain questions, female ordination, for instance. But no changes have really happened. So that's my general thought on that. On the issue of life on the issue of man and woman and the genders, he's been very clear on that. So, and then finally, there was a memo of disturbing memo a couple weeks ago that came out that said the FBI is trying to infiltrate Latin mass this is extraordinary. Are you one of those are you one of those pre Vatican two people, Raymond? Well, I have, I have been known to frequent the Latin master. You're a trouble maker. In fact, the Latin mass were brought my wife into the Catholic Church. You know, we don't go frequently as we once did. But here's the point, if you go to those masses, they are populated Charlie with young people. That's correct. Very fervent, newly married people with little babies. I mean, the church is full, the pews are packed, why anyone would have a problem with that. I don't know, but as you know, Pope Francis recently outlawed and tightened the noose on the ability to celebrate that old Latin mass, which I really don't understand. It makes no sense to break with tradition. But again, that's a discipline. He does have the right to do it. Whether it's right or not is a different question, but he has the right to do it. But for the FBI to then use the type of worship you want to frequent as a believing Christian to use that as a means of targeting you with a list, that is really beyond the beyond. They claim these people were domestic terrorists or domestic terrorists and training or radicals. That it was apparently out of the field office in Virginia. And that individual has been reprimanded. But there should be an investigation into who did this, why? And at whose behest, Charlie. Yes. This all seems rather convenient to me. Check out Raymond's latest book. It's really great about Thomas Edison and appreciate it Raymond it's Thomas Alva Edison is the name of the book by Raymond Arroyo. Thank you so much. An expert on all things from Catholicism the Edison. That's pretty impressive. I know about that. Both can be electric at times and can burn you. Thank you, Charlie. They have other similarities as well, but we won't go there. Raymond, thank you so much. Hey everybody, this is Charlie Kirk. We are saving babies with pre born. What are you doing today? When you introduce a girl to her baby by providing an ultrasound, you are giving her the truth at the most important time in her life, and more than 85% of the time she will choose life. You're also giving her access to a two year mentorship program and the chance to receive free maternity clothes, baby clothes, diapers, parenting classes, but perhaps, and most importantly, someone to walk alongside her and be a friend during the most crucial time of her life. A $140 gives 5 mothers a free ultrasound and saves babies, $280 can save ten babies and just $28 a month can save a baby a month for less than a dollar a day. And a $15,000 gift will provide an ultrasound machine that will save lives for years to come. Whether you want to save one baby or 5 or hundreds that opportunity is just a phone call or click away. I'm a donut or pre born and you should be too, call 833-850-2229 or go to pre born dot org that is pre born dot org. Joining us now is general Anthony Tata. I hope I said that right. And you did.

"And I hope we can restore him to that place. Yeah, so let's go through some of the lessons that could apply today. You mentioned several allowing the kid to explore allowing the children to take risks, right? What are some of the other lessons today? I mean, and do you think that the current government progressive school system is maybe just tragically preventing the next Thomas Edison from finding that next innovation that could benefit humanity? I'll leave you with Edison's words. We'll go to Edison himself who said he hated the modern education system. He said, it's a one size fits all bucket that doesn't allow the child or his ingenuity to grow. And he preferred the montessori approach, which was like the approach he was given deep reading into multiple disciplines and then hands on experimentation and most importantly, Charlie. And you do this every day. I do this every day. And I think the great entrepreneurs do. A sense of play in your work. Edison didn't ever really create, he had little groups. He called the muckers, his co inventors, the people who worked in his shop and in his labs, they had little units, and he would run from one to another pollinating them, encouraging them, challenging them, reshaping what they were working on and perfecting it. But he said it was all play. And these people were like his little playmates. And when you get in that space, that creative space of play. Whether you're in the theater or you're in a restaurant or you're doing a podcast or a television broadcast, that sense of play is infectious. You can't fake it. I think God creeps into those moments into the space that you create and you're in the zone as some call it. Edison lived there. I'm not sure if the educational system today permits that kind of attention to the child to accompany the child in the best mode of learning for him or her. And then allowing that force of learning to proceed and grow. The modern educational system is about checking boxes and fixed testing and memorization and that is why Edison was thrown out of school because he really couldn't memorize it and he didn't want to answer the questions that he was bored to tears after the exploration and curiosity that I think that mind had absorbed as a child. It's incredible. And so let's just reiterate the name of the book and I'm going to buy it so I can read it to my daughter. Oh, I hope you will, or I'll send you a topic. Thank you, the unexpected light of Thomas Alva Edison by Raymond Arroyo. And you have a whole genre of these books, don't you, Raymond? Well, this is the first, this is the first in a series, but yes, I've written three others. And again, they focus on great lives that I think had been neglected. You know, everybody knows some of the things Edison did, few understand how the inventor got there. And rather than a womb to tune biography, these books, the turnabout tales focus on, again, a crossroads, a crisis point in a young person's life, a person we all know, and it shows that those obstacles are not really obstacles. Those are portals to your future, portals to your vocation and your destiny, and we need your contribution. All of history, all of the country and the world may need that contribution. Certainly in the case of Edison, he himself said, if it hadn't been for his mother, he would not have done any of this. And we probably still be in the dark and talking to each other via letter, Charlie, which would not be good..

Just let them call this number and wools add them on and so we kept adding and adding and so we got really really busy with interviews. And i had an agenda full of talks. We were gonna go to that. We didn't get to go to. But i had you know tata's find myself by saying we are going to get the videos of those talks. We can watch them later and this is an important use of our time. We're here live now. These people are here live. Now we need to get this these interviews done so that we have the content for that for the next year basically and in weaken. Then you know keep contact with these people have them back on talk more with them in have them. You know Recommend other people that we can talk to so it's it was an ideal way to grow our podcast over one weekend It's going to affect our next year. Growth in it was important. It was our top priority was to get those interviews so adding them into the agenda was a little bit. You know bit of a struggle for me but once we were there sat down doing those interviews then. I enjoyed the process of talking to everybody and getting to know their story and You know bringing that out in them And i think as we went along..

Elliot's group at a stop modeling blockchain's insurance on morton's liberty and climate change anybody passionate about those are the key things about indeed. I think we also have common passions both on blockchain but also on on climate change. So it's great to have you with us on this show our top as you're quite familiar with the shows we're going to start off with our first question. Which is could you please explain our listeners. What is blockchain. And how does it work. Yeah so blockchain and the slightly order term and get used for. dlt's also. I really shared this particular simplified description which is more applicable to then a purist blockchain description since that is my focus so normally using a client create and propose transaction to one or more web servers run by one party. Typically one server validates that transaction and different. There's okay then process sincere in blockchain more. Dlt really using a client. We propose transaction to multiple servers run by different parties which validated on action. And if okay together consensus process and if the consensus was a succeeds then the process the transaction and save it and they typically the blockchain varies from here on that. It saves it in that particular blocks but in the deal. The doesn't necessarily so. That's basically how we how i would explain what blockchain us thank you for that so To continue as could you also give us an introduction to tata consultancy services. Yes oh pcs fifty already.

I think what will be good for. Our listeners is if you can give us a bit of background about track. Wise more what. The company does not on your involvement in the company. If the is so truck wise we were founded in nineteen eighty-nine nine designs limitation started as a printed circuit design. Bureau mood soon. Enough to manufacture and in the mid nineteen nineties was asked to make a nine foot lem prince a second vote and this very large nuts circuit was one of the la gsm gsm nine hundred by station at tennis.

Tuck wise as making provincial infrastructure. Tata's for Industry in that has been a big big business loris.

New custom was based in melbourne. Seth australia and we ended up in shipping tons and tons of products. That to let and it to melvin.

And what's what would you say differentiates the flex circuits the track manufacture for mother. Fpdc's yup in kosovo am flexible printed circuits. As as a not a not a new technology was people making ftc's long before trackways was ever ever involved. Am what what we did was.

The True Cost of Sustainable Skincare with Tata Harper
"I feel like there's so many misconceptions in the beauty industry really in the luxury industry in general too. But you know Clean beauty is not elevated enough or clean. Beauty doesn't work as well. And i think what's interesting. Is that you kind of saw those challenges. Or you heard those misconceptions and you're like no. I'm gonna change this right like i love that i'm gonna i'm gonna give it a try because enough you know because i think that now what we need is a lot of consumer products that make our life better deal you know not just like superficially better but like really that they They elevate our quality of life. And from that lance. It's what really kept me motivated and really like we spent like five years creating the harper because the formulas didn't exist. No one knew how to use like natural ingredients to preserve or to a mall. Sify or to again or to stabilize those were not like raw materials were used just for like marketing and And there was not a lot of science around like the formulation aspect of natural skincare and took a really long time to make them happen and also formulate from a different point of view because a lot of natural skinner was always formulated with this idea of minimalism and and a lot of like the first gen natural products. They were created a lot. I by the low hus movement remember that movement that lifestyle movement that is being natural so the fact that the product was natural was actually more important than the even that the product worked ben and data no for skin care. Because you only buy skin care too because it works right exactly. Why you don't like by this moisturizer to save the planet like you buy this moisture is great moisturizer and then you have your charities and other things to do other things but But yeah no i was. I was really challenging. It was almost like with the creation of our company. We talent almost every aspect of being a maker of skin-care not only from the ingredients and the formulas but also by having our farm like what you were saying before the farm has been such a special place for us because a lot of skin care is outsource. The majority of the companies are outsource. They outsource almost every piece of their of their Of their business to third parties whether it's the formulation to labs that a lot of times abusing tons of basis and just you know the smell or the color or the incentive vitamin seen our. We're going to add. Hulo renege on jason or you know things like that but you find a lot of companies that have very unique products and formulas that are really unique so for us it was always very clear that we needed to have our own our end and our own formulation Our own chemists and our own lab so that we can really formulate products from scratch like we like doing and that every ingredient has a purpose and also every single one of our formulas doesn't rely on just one ingredient like we're not like on one ingredient type of company where company that by ingredients from all over the world and use them in the you know in different formulas in very high concentrations. So no i mean. I think it makes so much sense. And i love that you guys and your approach is truly like farm to beauty right. I feel like that's such a Sort of a marketing term that you hear thrown around alongside clean beauty etc. But you're literally you know harvesting in growing ingredients on your farm for some of your formulas So can you explain a little bit more about how that process works in terms of You know like organic farming and how you guys are actively working milan. I mean. I think that's fascinating kodaly so just to clarify one thing. We do bring ingredients from all over the world. Sure yeah we bring ingredients from like eighty four different countries. Okay we have like no self and post limit on like we're just gonna talk about vitamins where we are see company we really curate technologies from all over the world whether it's green tag or you know things from tradit- you know from a lot of tradition traditional chinese medicine you're also bringing a lot of and butters from amazon but anyway so we In the farm. There's a couple of things happening so number one. We have a garden where we grow a lot of Not even a lot. We grow specifically five herbs that grow really well in our soil in vermont in our farm which is a clay soil and those are calendar. La barra sweet alfalfa and kolenda and we grow them in our farm in in our organic farm and we make one ingredient that that That we produce at the farm every single month that basically captures all of the oil soluble nutrition from all of those herbs. And the and it's done in a very temperature controlled process that it's very specific and that ingredient that is called our farm beauty complex goes into almost every single one of our formulas but in the farm. We also have a lot of barnes because it was an old dairy farm converted into a skincare farm. Now i love

Tensions simmer over Northern Cyprus' plan to reopen Varosha
"In nineteen seventy, four intervention by Turkish military forces after Greek inspired coup in Cyprus the famous Borussia Resort region was shut down over one hundred hotels with a bed capacity of ten thousand has been empty. No forty six years United Nations Security Council resolution states that the ghost. Count Ghost town. Can only be resettled by its original inhabitants. But now the Turkish. Separate Prime Minister has announced that the beaches there will open today causing much consternation from Cyprus and Greece one, hundred Lucinda Smith. The eastern will correspondent for the Times joins me now Hannah. Thanks thanks for coming on. Can you remind us of the events leading up to the closing of the region? Show well, of course, Cyprus in Nineteen, seventy, four, a war broke out but really the tensions on the been going on for more than a decade already between the two communities. The Greek speaking community on the Turkish speaking community. Now, in nineteen seventy four, what happened was that backed by Greece the Greek Cypriots tend to do. In response to that the Turkish army INVADED IN THE NORTH And progress down to the South and actually the line that they take. Shami was planning to progress to stops just north of Rocha. Rocha shouldn't have been part of the part of the territory take. Mohtashami. But they did in fact, take it. Well, it didn't do was opening up again to the public. They kept originally kind of bargaining chip hyping to sort of extract some concessions from the Greek separate side using this kind of faulting chip of Rocha. But she what's happened is that for forty six years, it's remained behind barbed wire, its military zone, the only people who are allowed. That are Turkish military personnel I'm very occasionally U. N. personnel now. On the did kind few images that we've seen coming from. This is really kind of striking quite eerie. Once, very, very lavish resort place where people like Elizabeth Taylor and severe ran went on holiday. Now just completely crumbling to dust. So what are the latest developments? So actually totta are the north separate prime minister announced. August. That the Russia was going to be redeveloped and reopened. Now this is something entirely near this is who come up cyclically disgust every so often. And so in a way. You know again it's you know one of these ideas and they'll never come to fruition. But as you said on Tuesday nights totta made the announcement while he was nine crowd that is going to be open today, not the whole town, just the beachfront But the really significant thing about this is that that was just five days away from the presidential elections in no Cypress scheduled to be held on Sunday Ersan Tatars candidate in those elections and I think the really interesting thing you mentioned that it's this announcements is met with a huge amount of opposition from. A Greek Cypriots and from Greece is also met with quad loss of opposition from Turkey separates as well It says caused the government of North. Cyprus a coalition government collapsed to one junior partner said it was pulling out that coalition and so her fide by this kind of sudden announcement and submit Prank and I think you know lots of people that know Cypress particularly Essen Tatas political opponents thing. But he's really using this as a kind of political stunt to give him the edge in Sunday's elections but I mean it's illegal isn't it? How does Turkey justify it? It. Is Legal Yeah as you said, according to the UN if anyone's going to be resettled in Russia, they have to be the original residents, most of whom were Greek separates. Now thought present factors has recognized the ship of the proper does the commission up. To, look into how the original owners of properties in brochure could be compensated Most of those people wanted some kind of compensation. Some wanted their properties back. But yeah. The fact is you know if any redevelopment of that town is going take place, there's this two major issues in all Cyprus firstly is the town the for forty six years has just been crumbling into the ground. It's GonNa take music. You're going to have to be kind of a demolished and reconstructed which might work, and secondly that is an she is going to cost Cyprus huge amounts of money if they want to do this in the kind of legal and proper way, and let's not forget the no. Cypress's is a country this only recognized by Ankara, it's pretty widely embargoed eighty four. For its economic survival is much propped up by Ankara saying it's places kind of ready access to to the funds needed to do something like this. So I think the question amongst. People position or is this just an election stunt? Is The beach just going to be open for feed is a member. She was just going to be closing lucky walls before a finally Hannah. How this feed into Turkeys dispute with European Union members Cypress and Greece territorial rights in the eastern Mediterranean. Yes sure I mean I think it's coincidence that is nouncement was made in Ankara. The obviously, no cypresses almost entirely dependent on anchor for it survivor. Essen Tatars. I said is the is kind of anchors favored consciousness elections, but we'll see this is why dispute going on in Syria and Cyprus and in the eastern Mediterranean more broadly which she the tickets very much. The House of it's about the converged UNSEE gas. It's about maritime sovereign say on that those people down over the past few weeks rather still not been resolved and I. Think this is hugely emotional for for separates greek-cypriots particularly, and it's just another thing I. think no guide to sort of. Prolong this arguments this maritime arguments niece.

I do want to say that we haven't yet another fantastic sponsor for this week's episode, you guys. Are you excited about the sponsor, very? I know I am it's our old pals at enlightened first of all enlightened? Sorry, they make the best ice cream and frozen products in the Biz in addition to their incredibly delicious badeah being bought a boom snacking broad beans, which are to die for but today we are specifically talking about a new frozen product. They have you know. Enlightened started out with novelties. They had those ice cream bars originally before they got into pints and all the other great stuff that they do, but they have a new bar called enlightened fruit infusions that are low in sugar there, especially popular with the Kito audience because they're totally Kito, friendly, right? Very low in sugar, sixty ninety calories, hardly any fat. Three to seven grams of fiber, three to five grams of sugars and total, which is pretty incredible for a fruit bar, and they're real fruit frozen pops. They literally have seventy to eighty percent less sugar than most of the competition, and they are not made with any artificial sweeteners. I love these bars. They were nice enough to send them to me like during the pandemic freezer, they're really refreshing. Their infused with natural herbs and other feel good ingredients, but all you really taste. Is that fruity deliciousness now I love the flavors that they have with these because think about how cute and fund these are coconut plus immunity immunity. With elements like elderberry and high biscuits that support a healthy immune system have strawberry and chill. With like calming ingredients like Lavender Camomile and more. And like usually that stuff feels a little like I, don't know. Earthy crunchy a little bit out there to me, but I'm just telling you. The strawberry is my favorite flavor, the watermelon soothe. Has Tim. Rick and other anti inflammatory ingredients, and they have a pineapple and renew flavor with digestive benefits from Dandelions, root, Ginger, root, and more so have you tried these bars I have and I'm like blown away that you get all those benefits and it's just a delicious fruit bar.

Yeah, it doesn't and sometimes you know it's good to to pick up some foods that you hope will be around forever. Because Trader Joe's is known for like having all these. Products, and hopefully some of these will stick around for the long haul, but we are starting off with some savoury items. We've got an exciting egg for todd with Swiss cheese and cauliflower so I. I saw these in the freezer section. I know Aaron who works with US swears by these. She said Lisa. You need to try this. You put it in a flat bread.

Israel Folau Debate: Freedom of Speech or Homophobia?
"Well, you don't have to be a rugby fan to know that Wallaby sti- Israel allow has been a big news story over the past few months, when I pretend he posted these woods on his personal social media accounts, quite warning drunks homosexuals adulterers, lies fornicated his thieves eighth assed, odometers hill. White, you repent. The fallout was a means rugby Australia won't allow that he had breached these plaid code of conduct by posting homophones combs on social media after examination of the event this happened. Well, he's roughly is football career to be TATA's right now, rugby Estrella saying is going to rip up his contract and no long matted that allow was one of the most talented players in the game. Hanes four million dollar contract will no longer together. Now, this story has ignited a discussion across the nation. That is polarized opinion really before. Why love invited to experts to navigate what all this means? Joining me in Sydney is paid a cookie. He's an eye junked associate professor of law at Notre dumb. He's also a senior research fellow at the center for independence studies as off started on this program before CIs. That's the thing tank. I hate it. Well, the guest is professor, Catherine Gilda, Catherine research, is freedom of speech, human rights in public discourse at the university of Queensland school of political science and international studies, and she's in Brisbane studio cath paid, welcome to the program. Thanks to be here. Now, let's stop hearing both of your opinions about what the exact issues are that we need to address a cookie. What's the hot of what's dividing public opinion? Well, I think Israel has done two things that run counter to the culture. The first thing is that he's stalked, very, clearly and openly about his religious beliefs, something that we're not really accustomed to doing in Australia. We just don't tend to. About God publicly, but the other thing that he's done is whereas straightens, generally very accepting of LGBT. I people there is a small, but very powerful group that wants to move the community beyond acceptance to endorsement, where dissent is not tolerated, and Israel allow refuses to go along with that. But it seems to be a difference between how people define freedom of speech religious freedom discrimination cath. What's the release you? He really show in my opinion, is that all human rights are not absolute and all human rights, stop at the point at which your exercise of your own right impairs, somebody else's exercise of their human rights. So what we have here is a difference of opinion of what the implications are for these Ralph last said, so in my view Israel now has engaged in discrimination occurs is not about religious freedom. It's about discrimination, pater, freedom, offense, discrimination, Joel on well agree with Catherine's assessment of human rights, and I think they are not absolute. I think that's very important. I don't think this is an issue really over religious freedom. I think it's gonna be on that. Now, I don't think that Israel has discriminated against in any more of a sense that he's just made a decision to he's chosen one group over another, he and he's not vilified not incited violence against this particular Cody should there, be limits to what freedom of speech allows people decide. Well, I think we have very careful about where we want to draw those limits. What what's wrong with him expressing an opinion? And remember that this opinion is, it's a conditional warning, as it were he saying, essentially, I love these sinners including homosexuals, and I want you to repent because in my religious belief you go to hell. If you don't so he's issued a warning out of love and Israel flowers, post vilifies more than one element of society. Cath gilda. What is it about homosexuality? That is really triggered the greatest response. Well, the answer to this question response directly, what pay to just sit? Absolutely. What is? Flouts said, Philipon homosexuals. And the reason that the issue with sexual was more important than liars or adulterers, or drunks is that there is no entrenched systemic discrimination, or bias in society against lies or against adulterers. There is entrenched systemic discrimination against time a sexual and by saying what he said, what is flour saying was that guy. People have no place on this earth. They must repent I ate Thiam must become not guy in order to be acceptable now. That's what crosses the line that is what is. But what is wrong with expressing that opinion? Again, I think Catherine's analysis is right ex-. I don't think is what have occasion. But if that's what you believe what's wrong with expressing it. Which is why I'm concerned that we've reached the point now in society where we simply cannot descend from certain positions that are laid down calculator. It is not just an expression of opinion to think that is to say that when. In your talking. All you're doing is expressing your thoughts, but we have decades of scholarship that tell us that words can do things worked can do good things and words can do bad things, and there is wise expressing yourself that constitute a form of discrimination, and that is why we recognize that law as height speech or vilification, or the Katherine disagree about whether or not to these this amounts vilification, because it seems to me that in Australia, at the moment that being gay is no bar to holding the highest office, highest officers in the land to holding commanding positions in business and in, in the academic world. So I wonder to what extent this discrimination, which certainly was very real. And I think very toxic early generation is is as prevalent today. Cather some commentators, they say that we're already over instructed by the nanny state governments, institutions. Are we headed towards becoming the nanny state? Many libertarians think we already are. Absolutely not. What we have in this country are very narrowly drone very carefully constructed laws that don't side that you can't talk about particular topic. So Israel Lau would have been free to say as he is in has infect said, don't support same sex relationships and audience put same sex marriage. And if that's all he'd said, we wouldn't be having this discussion go. Fund me has finally closed down. Fillets requests for money to becky's legal challenge, cath, is that fair? Yes. Guy fan me has a policy that is in sync with a and law in sync with international human rights law, and in sync with public opinion in strategy that we should to combat discrimination repeater fails, a millionaire. At least how is it moral to us, the public for money? He's using go fund me to correct what he perceives to be an injustice, and go on me is clearly, a barometer of public opinion because he's got tractor nearly two two million dollars of support even though the has taken over the funding. So whether or not he can afford it. I think is beside the point on Thomas. What's important is that he's attracting a great deal of public support through donations to the site, which suggests that there are many, many people who agree that not necessarily agree with flowers views about the destination of sinners, but they, they believe committed to his the freedom that he should have to express those views cath is Australia angry about censorship. I think there are lots of reasons why people are giving to fund. One of them is, of course, that he's a staff footballer. And so he has a lot of fans. Another one is that he has a particular religious community supporting him. So it's not possible to say that people are against since ship just because they giving him money. This issue has become much bigger than an issue of his religious freedom. And so people are giving money for all kinds of reasons, Catherine you've said that fillet himself is a victim. He why flower caught up in something that's much larger than himself. This is an orchestrated an organized campaign by conservatives who are evidently frustrated at the decades of progress that have been made. Human rights and anti-discrimination, particularly in law. But also in hearts and minds in terms of public opinion. And this movement is now somewhat clearly using the language of human rights at self to try and Hanis public support for Wanding back thighs protections. I don't think this is a push back in a sense. I think it's a reaction to the tyranny of tolerance that Torrence's demanded any dissent from what needs to be tolerated. What is required to be tolerated will not be tolerated. And I think that is what people are reacting to. They would say we've reached a tipping point where now you simply cannot express a dissenting point of view that departs from that, that's a certified by design guy says it were and Kath, how do you see this ending? I'm very, very concerned that paper light paid deny that discrimination still exists simply because there are one or two people in positions of power who may be, for example guy, and that therefore discrimination doesn't exist. Look at the research about what happened during the same sex marriage. So if I look at the research on what happens to young. Gay and lesbian people when role models like fil might comments like this incidence of suicide and self harm increase. It is absolutely the case, both in my research, and in lots of social science research. Discrimination is well, and truly alive and well, and we must not get to the point where we say, oh, discrimination is Ivan. Now. We can stop this fight. I hope that people Tyke from this, the message that we can need to maintain at posture. We need to maintain stance against discrimination, and bigotry, a lovely debate, Catherine Gilda, pita, Cody, thanks so much for being on our end today. Thanks to thanks.

The fraying transatlantic alliance
"Hello and welcome to this edition of weld weekly from the financial times. I am answer venture Johnny the world news editor and this week, we're looking at transatlantic relations as the Trump administration appears to turn its back on its traditional European allies in a sign of Washington's shifting allegiances, the US president on Monday, welcomed Hungary's, illiberal leader, Victoria, Alban to the White House days, after his secretary of state abruptly cancelled a meeting with Germany's Angela Merkel joining me on the line from Washington DC is Dmitri, Sevastopol, oh, the F, Washington bureau chief and from Belene guy. Chaz on our between VERA chief my first question goes to you Dimitri. Donald Trump was fool of praises for Victoria ban on Monday. He congratulated him for his quote block up against refugees from Syria, and he's work to protect the Christian communities. Can you give us a bit of details and explain why this visit is so important and telling we'll, I think one of the things that we've learned about Donald Trump over the last two years. This is one of the things that many Europeans have concerns about is, he seems to want to solve up to leaders who are far -tarian strongmen, you know, very hard line. You know, there's a long list, whether it's early on in Turkey or on in Hungary Kim Jong on North Korea, who Donald Trump said he fell in love with or Vladimir Putin in Russia Trump when he meets these leaders at least publicly doesn't criticize them for some of the things that they're doing their own countries to threaten democracy on the other hand, he seems willing to criticize Anglo Myrtle, or Theresa May or president McConnell, France. So there's a kind of cost me come seems to like something to these strong, tough solitary leaders. And yet, he at the same time he seems to be dismissing some of the concern. Means pushing away, European allies of America who have helped maintain the kind of peace across the trans Atlantic now for seventy years. As you said, the relationship has fuss deteriorated since Donald Trump kimchi office. The US needs key. European is have diverge on a number of issues. Can you list them for us? I mean, it's really wide from climate change trade, Iran. Well, I mean, from the very beginning, it's a long list, one of the things that President Trump today early in his presence. He was he withdrew the US from the Paris climate accords which sent ripples across Europe and the rest of the world later on in his tenure, he withdrew America from the around nuclear deal that America and some of its European allies had signed with Tehran in twenty fifteen on that has led to convert more bellicose stomps on Iran. He also has been incredibly critical of NATO now in criticizing NATO. He's not the first president, President Obama and President Bush frequently said that NATO allies needed to pay more for their defense. I remember travelling to your puts on rump sell the Robert Gates and they were constantly sending this message of Europeans. But Donald Trump has done it in a much more aggressive way. And I think one of the most heading examples was last summer in Brussels out of NATO summit, he was very critical. Angela Merkel both in public meetings and in private meetings and he's shocked many of the leaders who were in the -tendance. So I mean, there are other issues there as well to do with hallway and five G telecom networks and other things. But I think there's some of the main ones that have really created a false lines in the transit onto relationship guy intending to, you know, defense. Secretary of state. Mike Pompeo cancelled a meeting with medical less tweak invoking rising tensions in the Middle East. What was the reaction in betting? I think those zoo Hora that it was seen very much as a snub, it was supposed to be his first trip to Berlin, since he became secretary of state, and it was very hotly awaited. And he just didn't turn up. And I think there was shock that he then went on to Britain. And even so they all Tricia Canterbury. So, you know, even just in Welby was more important to him as a priority. Angela Merkel those real dismay, lots of Coventry in the German press, basically saying that the US German relationship is now, basically in TATA's on, what are we going to do about this, this feeling of crisis really in a relationship, which has been one of the main pillars of Germany's post-war identity really for seventy years now. Why do you think that Mr. Trump targeted Gemini, in particular among its European on is what's your assessment of that? Well, they're personal reasons as well as political reasons. The chemistry between Angela Merkel and Donald Trump has never really worked. You know, she really comes across as associate professor, and he's like the naughty boy who didn't do his homework, he doesn't like being lectured, and Michael does have a tendency to lecture, one of the first thing she did when he was elected president. She sent him a message saying will look forward to working with you, but very much on the basis of our shed values of respect for human rights, and democracy, and so on that was perceived. As a real slight to Donald Trump. Basically a smackdown saying you're going to have to behave need didn't take Hymie to that. But there are other aspects. It's not just the chemistry America is very antagonist very exercise by Germany's failure to meet its commitment, which gave in two thousand fourteen to spend two percent of its GDP on defense. It's nowhere near that target and in fact recently published its budget estimates for the coming years, and it looks like it's actually going to go down as a percentage of GDP is spending on the military. So that was seen as a real red rag to Donald Trump's bull. And he's also, I mean, there's a very famous interview he did with playboy magazine from the ninety s where he complained about how many German cars that were on Fifth Avenue in New York, and he's had Macedo and BMW in his science for many, many years. So it didn't surprise the Germans a tool that he started talking about imposing. Import tariffs on European cars, and he's been complaining for longtime about the size of the German, current account surplus, which, of course, a lot of Germany's allies in Europe of also join attention to over the years. What do you think all the far reaching consequences for Germany? What are the Germans, what kind of lesson? They're drink from this facility longer term. Do you think there's a realization that Germany, and Europe must be more independent from a defense point of view, or, you know, foreign policy point of view? What is your sense? Absolutely. I was at a conference, whether we're talking about this and one speaker said Germany's success is built on three elements integration with the EU the transatlantic security guarantee on Germany's access to open Mockus worldwide and Trump threatens all of those three things. So there's a sense, here that there's, it's kind of existential threat posed by Trump's America first ideology tool. All those things that have made Germany, such a huge success over the last few decades. So that definitely is a feeling that they have to respond in some way. I mean it's very tentative at the moment, though, I mean, for example, that talking about developing much more of a kind of foreign policy. Competence in the EU and more of a sort of independent defense posture, and, you know, maybe getting rid of unanimity, and you decisions on foreign policy, so that they can have more qualified majority voting not come thing, but it's all relative tentative. And even when they do talk about building up their defense capabilities that gets them in hot water with the Americans. We wrote the story saying, how America was criticizing the latest initiatives for military cooperation between EU countries, the Pescara the permanent structured cooperation initiative, and EDF the European defence fund because they feel that it's not really compatible with NATO that it produces. Much duplication and diversion of scarce defense resources and it sets up a necessary competition between NATO in the EU. And so the sense of frustration in Europe over this is light. You tell us we need to do more far defense, and then we try and do it you complain. So the relationship has Radi scrunchy at the moment as we can see on the number of different fronts. Exactly. So they have this quantity move from the US. Do you want to jump in Dmitri? It's true that every time Europe speaks about more independence on the security from the US gets angry and gets a letter warning. But on the other hand, you know, you get a sense that the US is kind of retreating from Europe. What's your interpretation? Well stuffing element of Donald Trump getting a little bit of taste of his own medicine, sometimes when the European say that they want to their own defense capabilities. But I think it's also important to stress that this issue between the US and Europe on defense spending it really isn't just Donald Trump issue. And he is the one who is addressing it in a much more assertive, much more aggressive on some people would say overly aggressive way. But it's something that has stretched back now for more than a decade in the US the US than constantly saying to the European countries, particularly Germany because it is the biggest economy in Europe that they need to spend more. So I think it's an issue that's not going to go away, even if Donald Trump loses the election in twenty twenty I think a democratic president will be much friendlier to traditional US allies and I was just in New Hampshire on the campaign trail with Cory Booker and Beethoven, Joe Biden on all of them were talking about the need to rebuild on to strengthen American alliances with Europe. But notwithstanding that I still think. Whoever's president after twenty twenty is still going to put pressure on Europe to spend more money on defense, and if Germany and some of the other countries who haven't miss this two percent target haven't reached it, then I think you're still going to have tensions on that issue just to go back to one thing that guy said, I really do think the car issue is critical. I mean Donald Trump has how the being his bonnet about cars for a long time at the end of this week. He's going to potentially decide whether to put tariffs on imports of European cars. So this really is something that's a trade relationship is something that really gets him. And also when he was in Europe last year. Another thing that he criticized glimmer pool for is the Nord Stream two pipeline that will bring Russian gas into Europe and Donald Trump and some of his team are saying you want us to spend money to defend you against Russia, and yet, you're buying Russian gas on the other hand, the European say, hold on a second. You're the president who has criticized by the Putin, for orchestrating a campaign to interfere in the American elections. So there's a lot of things crossing the Atlantic and. It's very hard to see how any of this gets any better while Donald Trump is in office tensions, are escalating in the Middle East over Iran, with rising threat of war, and some echoes of cheese than three when the US in some European countries disagreed, on whether to war with Iraq. Dictates us Adam Hussain to meet you what all the broader security ramifications of this poor transatlantic relations. Are we entering a new testing phase? Well, the big question that's emerged in the last few days in Washington is are we returning to the early years of the Bush administration where it appears that there was a constant drum beat among Iran hawks for the US to take military action against Iran. Now, we know that on both in the national security advisor has asked the Pentagon to dust off its war plan for Iran. Not the caveat there is at the Pentagon has funds for everything, and there periodically dusting them off. But when a story comes out that they're dusting them off, Iran at a time when Mike Pompeo secretary of state. John Bolton and others are being very aggressive in the rhetoric towards around it raises questions as to whether the US is contemplating taking most reaction, and I think, not something that would be a huge divide across the transatlantic. I mean as much tension as two walls, when George W Bush invaded Iraq. You remember relations then between George W Bush Gertrude or Germany were extra very odd because since the war in Germany. But I think we would see something that will be exponentially worse. If the US did take any kind of military action in Iran. So people are watching very closely right now to see whether this is just on both in on the hawks making bellicose noises. Just too scary round or whether there's actually something fundamentally happening behind the scenes. My thanks to Dmitri and guy that was really fascinating. And that's it for this week till next week goodbye.
