The long-planned talks between Biden and Ardern were to center on trade, climate and security in the Indo-Pacific, but the two leaders' starkly different experiences in pushing for gun control loomed large in the conversation.

Biden and Ardern also discussed a May 15 shooting at a lunch banquet at a Taiwanese church in Laguna Woods, California that killed one person and wounded five others. “The pain is palpable,” said Biden, recalling his anguished conversations Sunday with families of victims of the Texas elementary school shooting. Ardern offered condolences and said she stood ready to share anything that we can share that would be of any value from New Zealand's experience. “Our experience demonstrated our need for gun reform, but it also demonstrated what I think is an international issue around violent extremism and terrorism online,” Ardern told reporters following her more than hour-long meeting with Biden. “That is an area where we see absolutely partnership that we can continue to work on those issues.”,Also read: DoJ probe could shed light on police time lapse in Uvalde killings,It's unclear what, if anything, from New Zealand could be applicable to the United States, which hasn't passed a major federal gun control measure since soon after the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Connecticut that left 26 dead.

Unlike many countries that have already introduced sanctions, New Zealand's existing laws don't allow it to apply meaningful measures unless they're part of a broader United Nations effort. Because Russia has U.N. Security Council veto power, that has left New Zealand hamstrung. Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said the new legislation would allow it to target people, companies and assets connected to those in Russia associated with the invasion, including oligarchs. It would allow New Zealand to freeze assets and stop superyachts or planes from arriving. A bill of this nature has never been brought before our parliament, but it is essential given Russia's vetoing of sanctions through the U.N. Ardern said. The bill will be specific only to the Ukraine invasion but could allow New Zealand to impose sanctions on countries seen to be helping Russia, such as Belarus. Ardern said there was currently only a small amount of Russian money invested in New Zealand but that without the new law, that could quickly change if Russian oligarchs began viewing New Zealand as a backdoor to avoid sanctions elsewhere. Foreign Minister Nanaia Mahuta said the bill will send a very clear signal that New Zealand will not be a safe haven for those wishing to move their investments here. The Russia Sanctions Bill is scheduled to be heard by lawmakers on Wednesday and could pass as quickly as the same day. Ardern said she's hoping it will be supported by lawmakers across all parties although an unanimous vote wasn't guaranteed. While the legislation is broad, it doesn't mean that someone who is Russian and wealthy will automatically be a target, Mahuta said.

In a final act of defiance, the protestors set fire to tents after police broke up the camp that the demonstrators had set up over three weeks ago. The operation began at dawn, when police started telling people over loudspeakers they were trespassing and needed to leave, while officers tore down tents in peripheral areas and a police helicopter circled overhead. Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said that in planning the operation, police had expected violence and resistance, but what had transpired had been difficult to watch. I was both angry and also deeply saddened. To see the Parliament — your Parliament, our Parliament — desecrated in that way, and a children's playground destroyed, by a small group of illegal protesters. But, as I say, it's not something that will define New Zealand's response to this pandemic, Arden said.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_6k77dlSYd.jpg","role":2,"userType":1},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"-41.2924","longitude":"174.7787","name":"Wellington, New Zealand","city":"Wellington"},"keywords":"New Zealand, New Zealand protests, COVID-19, New Zealand Parliament fire","originalPublishedOn":"2022-03-02T18:00:00+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"pcHxZwWZeODp","slug":"english/new-zealand-prime-minister-jacinda-ardern-chased-by-anti-covid-vaccine-mandate-protesters","slugV2":"india/new-zealand-prime-minister-jacinda-ardern-chased-by-anti-covid-vaccine-mandate-protesters-478701/","title":"NZ PM Jacinda Ardern chased by anti-COVID vaccine mandate protesters","postType":1,"coverMedia":"/opoyi_o7PZJ2-hf.jpg","coverCaption":"Police and protesters clash in Wellington, New Zealand, Tuesday, Februaery 22, 2022, as police tightened a cordon around a protest convoy that has been camped outside Parliament for two weeks.

Professor Michael Baker, an epidemiologist at the University of Otago, said he was concerned that contact tracers in Auckland would soon become overwhelmed. He said lawmakers needed to consider temporarily reimposing stricter lockdown rules as a circuit breaker. “There are burning embers all over the city,” Baker said. “They have lifted the wet blanket of the strong lockdown, and people are getting lockdown fatigue.

He said the most important goal in any reopening would be to ensure the health system was not overrun. Health officials on Tuesday also said they had authorized people with weakened immune systems to get a third shot of the Pfizer vaccine and were recommending they do so.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_6k77dlSYd.jpg","role":2,"userType":1},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"-41.2924","longitude":"174.7787","name":"Wellington, New Zealand","city":"Wellington"},"keywords":"New Zealand, record COVID-19 cases, lockdown, vaccine, Jacinda Ardern","originalPublishedOn":"2021-10-19T13:30:00+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"i2PVdc4kp67I","slug":"end-of-zero-tolerance-new-zealand-admits-it-can-not-get-rid-of-coronavirus","slugV2":"health/end-of-zero-tolerance-new-zealand-admits-it-can-not-get-rid-of-coronavirus-344628/","title":"End of 'zero-tolerance': New Zealand admits it cannot get rid of coronavirus","postType":1,"coverMedia":"/opoyi_s9j9S_QYcfG.jpg","coverCaption":"New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern addresses a post-Cabinet press conference on Monday (Photo Credit: AP)","reactionStats":"{\"like_count\":0,\"heartbreak_count\":0,\"laugh_count\":0,\"sad_count\":0,\"angry_count\":0}","updatedOn":"2021-10-04T16:44:57+05:30","highlightSummary":"\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eNew Zealand has pursued a zero-tolerance approach towards COVID-19 until now\u003c/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eThe country with a population of 5 million has reported just 27 deaths so far\u003c/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eThe Delta variant has forced New Zealand to alter its approach\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003c/ul\u003e","highlightSummaryFlag":1,"breakingSponsored":0,"coverMediaType":1,"reactionsCount":0,"commentsCount":0,"lastComment":null,"isUpdated":false,"lastCommentUser":null,"trustScore":1,"fakeTrust":2,"content":"{\\\"time\\\":1633346035485,\\\"strCount\\\":3816,\\\"blocks\\\":[{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"New Zealand's government acknowledged Monday what most other countries did long ago: It can no longer completely get rid of the coronavirus.\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announced a cautious plan to ease lockdown restrictions in Auckland, despite an outbreak there that continues to simmer.\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"Since early in the pandemic, New Zealand had pursued an unusual zero-tolerance approach to the virus through strict lockdowns and aggressive contact tracing.\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"\u003cb\u003eAlso Read |\u003c/b\u003e\u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/low-covid-testing-spike-in-cases-means-auckland-will-see-no-holiday-visitors?utm_source=copy-share\u0026amp;utm_medium=web\u0026amp;utm_campaign=none\\\\\\\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;Low COVID testing, spike in cases means Auckland will see no holiday visitors\u003c/a\u003e\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"Until recently, that elimination strategy had worked remarkably well for the country of 5 million, which has reported just 27 virus deaths. \\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"While other nations faced rising death tolls and disrupted lives, New Zealanders went back to workplaces, school yards and sports stadiums safe from any community spread.\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"But that all changed when the more contagious delta variant somehow escaped from a quarantine facility in August after it was brought into the country from a traveler returning from Australia. \\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"Despite New Zealand going into the strictest form of lockdown after just a single local case was detected, it ultimately wasn't enough to crush the outbreak entirely.\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"\u003cb\u003eAlso Read |\u0026nbsp;\u003c/b\u003e\u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/2-men-arrested-for-smuggling-kfc-food-100000-cash-in-new-zealand?utm_source=copy-share\u0026amp;utm_medium=web\u0026amp;utm_campaign=none\\\\\\\"\u003e2 men arrested for smuggling KFC food, $100,000 cash in New Zealand\u003c/a\u003e\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"One factor may have been that the disease spread among some groups that are typically more wary of authorities, including gang members and homeless people living in transitional housing.\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"The outbreak has grown to more than 1,300 cases, with 29 more detected on Monday.

A High Court order required for the man’s name to be kept lapsed, with the attacker’s name now no longer under suppression. He has been identified as 32-year-old Ahamed Aathil Mohamed Samsudeen. What is known about Samsudeen?,Ahamed Aathil Mohamed Samsudeen is Sri Lankan refugee who arrived in New Zealand in October 2011. A Tamil Musilm born in Sri Lanka, Samsudeen was granted refugee status two years after coming to the country and gained his residency visa. Initially, Samsudeen arrived onshore with a student visa. Before being granted refugee status, Kiwi officials investigated his case that led to revelations about his political background back home in Sri Lanka. The now 32-year-old had then in 2013 claimed that he faced serious harm in his native land and it was accepted by NZ authorities that he had been attacked and mistreated in the past. A psychologist’s assessment of Samsudeen’s mental health described him as a highly distressed and damaged young man, according to the NZ Herald. However, in May 2018, the Refugee Status Branch sought to cancel his refugee status and served him with a notice. Him losing refugee status that year would have resulted in him being deported back to Sri Lanka. More than a month later the High Court in Auckland granted him name suppression in publications to ensure his safety after deportation. Since, Samsudeen had raised an appeal against the authorities’ intention to deport him, he had been awaiting a hearing up until his death.The suppression order on his name lifted after his death. Also Read | US to bring aboard at least 50,000 Afghan migrants: Homeland Security chief,Samsudeen first caught NZ police’s eye in 2016 after he posted images of graphic acts of war violence on his Facebook account, with comments supporting the Islamic State bombing attacks in Brussels on March 22. After initially giving him a warning, that made him aware of their interest and led him to setting up several different Facebook accounts, the officers from NSI (National Security Investigations) monitored his activity online. ,The authorities found anti-western and violent imagery on his Facebook account. However, Samsudeen was only being watched closely after he told a fellow worshipper at a mosque about his plans to join Isis in Syria and his intentions on carrying out a lone wolf style knife attack in New Zealand if he was stopped from leaving. In a search conducted at his apartment, the police found videos and songs in support of Isis extremism and imagery of sadistic violence, in addition to images of him posing with weapons. ,On Friday, the New Zealand police shot and killed him for stabbing and injuring six shoppers. Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern called it an act of terror and said that she was sorry that it happened. ,More details of the incident and on Samsudeen are expected on Sunday.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_6k77dlSYd.jpg","role":2,"userType":1},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"-36.8509","longitude":"174.7645","name":"Auckland, New Zealand","city":"Auckland"},"keywords":"New Zealand terror attack, New Zealand knife attack, NZ knife attack, NZ terror attack, Ahamed Aathil Mohamed Samsudeen, Samsudeen, Sri Lanka, New Zealand, Tamil, Muslim","originalPublishedOn":"2021-09-04T18:45:00+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"QsOk3L04Fys3","slug":"new-zealand-knife-attacker-was-released-from-jail-53-days-before-incident","slugV2":"world/new-zealand-knife-attacker-was-released-from-jail-53-days-before-incident-507173/","title":"New Zealand knife attacker was released from jail 53 days before incident","postType":1,"coverMedia":"/opoyi_oG9netxbM.jpg","coverCaption":"Authorities outside the Auckland supermarket where a knife attack took place.

The man walked into an Auckland supermarket, grabbed a kitchen knife from a store shelf and stabbed six people. He also injured three, who are critical. A seventh person was also slightly injured. But what makes the incident come to the fore is that the man, who was once jailed, was released by the authorities as they said that they could do nothing more to keep him behind bars despite voicing concerns. The man, inspired by the Islamic State group for three years, was caught with a hunting knife and extremist videos. ,So for 53 days from July, police tracked the man's every move, an operation that involved some 30 officers working around the clock. Their fears were borne out Friday when the man walked into an Auckland supermarket and went on a spree. Undercover officers, who were positioned outside the supermarket, found themselves running toward the market when they heard shoppers shouting. The attacker was shot dead within a couple of minutes. But the attack has highlighted deficiencies in New Zealand's anti-terror laws, which experts say are too focused on punishing crimes and inadequate for dealing with plots. Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said lawmakers were close to filling some of those legislative holes when the attack occurred. She vowed law changes by the end of the month. Authorities have not yet released the man's name. They say he was a Sri Lankan national who arrived in New Zealand 10 years ago, at the age of 22, on a student visa. He was first noticed by police in 2016 when he started posting support for terror attacks and violent extremism on Facebook. Police twice confronted him but he kept on posting. In 2017, they arrested him at Auckland Airport. He was headed for Syria, authorities say, presumably to join the Islamic State insurgency. ,Police searches found he had a hunting knife and some banned propaganda material, and he was later released on bail. In 2018, he bought another knife, and police found two Islamic State videos. The man spent the next three years in jail after pleading guilty to various crimes and for breaching bail. On new charges in May, a jury found the man guilty on two counts of possessing objectionable videos, both of which showed Islamic State group imagery, including the group’s flag and a man in a black balaclava holding a semi-automatic weapon. However, the videos didn’t show violent murders like some Islamic State videos and weren’t classified as the worst kind of illicit material. High Court Judge Sally Fitzgerald described the contents as religious hymns sung in Arabic. She said the videos described obtaining martyrdom on the battlefield by being killed for God’s cause. The judge sentencing him to a year’s supervision at an Auckland mosque, where a leader had confirmed his willingness to help and support the man on his release. “Your rehabilitation is accordingly key,” Fitzgerald noted in the ruling. Two months later, the man shook the nation in a stabbing attack.

The reaction to the country’s approach is a representation of the stark difference in how different countries are handling COVID-19 across the globe. ,While some like the United Kingdom have accepted that the virus may never leave and are adjusting to a life with it, New Zealand is committed to driving it away for good. Soon after the first Delta case was reported, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern ordered the entire nation into lockdown. As of Friday, it has spread to 347 cases, with one hospitalised and under intensive care. ,Fortress New Zealand has been breached. It has prompted questions whether zero COVID strategy is effective when the entire world is swamped with the highly contagious Delta variant. ,Ardern, for now, is doubling down on the strategy, despite the country being called a “hermit nation”. However, the nation’s COVID-19 response minister thinks otherwise and has indicated that the approach might not be long-lasting. ,New Zealand’s tough border had been the ideal shield against the virus, until Delta arrived. ,New Zealand has reported just over 3,000 cases and 26 deaths, so far. ,Another hard-hit sector due to fortified borders is that of tourism. Overseas visitor count dropped down by over 98% in January 2021 compared with a year before. New Zealand's Covid-19 Response Minister Chris Hipkins said told CNN, It does mean that all of our existing protections start to look less adequate and less robust, he said. As a result of that, we are looking very closely at what more we can do there. But it does raise some very big questions about the long-term future of our plans.
