As anti racism rallies spread across europe. Has covered 19 deaths top 400000 globally scenes of desperation in some countries afghanistan is fast running out of hospital beds. And reading books is fast catching up among children in russia. Keep them indoors and on time how much now have all the sport including more teams in germany is one does he get joined the protest against a Racial Injustice. Going beginning in the United States for the u. S. President donald trump has ordered the National Guard to pull out of washington d. C. That is despite a 12th night of protests across the country demanding change after the death george. Floyd mr trump announced the order on twitter saying ive just given an order from National Guard to stop the process of withdrawing from washington d. C. Now that everything is on the perfect control they will be going home but can quickly return if need far fewer protesters showed up last night than anticipated exclamation mark we have 2 correspondents monitoring the developments in the United States kristen salumi standing by for us in new york 1st to our White House Correspondent complete joining us out of washington so kimberly weve been hearing from william ball whats he been saying. Yeah hes been defending the trumpet ministrations response throughout these protests particularly monday evening that controversy all moment when the white house or at least the attorney general ordering the federal police to clear the area around Lafayette Square pushing them back using tear gas he denies the tear gas was used although the protesters say thats exactly what it was well your bar saying that it was pepper balls also saying that the troops that were present for that execution of pushing back the Peaceful Protesters that it was really a last resort that the protesters were warned multiple times but they refused to listen to the orders of police and that is why they moved in he was also asked about systemic racism in policing something he did not is a problem. I think theres racism in the United States still but i dont think that the local Law Enforcement system is systemically racist i understand that distrust however of the Africanamerican Community given the history in this country. I think we have to recognize that for most of our history our institutions were explicitly racist. More astonishing pictures of mass protests this weekend kimberly im intrigued to find out from you whether we think that all of the disparate groups that make up the black lives Matter Campaign are precisely on the same page because some of them are saying actually will the mayor of washington is a little bit of an issue but if you look at the broader picture if she went with the idea of it becoming the black who lives matter plaza which leads up to the building youre standing in front of thats visible from space thats got the message out there. Wow youre really touching on something that has a lot of nuances but it is important it is part of the discussion youre right these protests have not been one voice it is not a monolithic point of view in fact there are a number of points of view we know from the f. B. I. In fact theres everything from the far left and t. Which has sort of a radical militant opposition to right wing ideology in that we have in the far right we have White Nationalist white supremacist groups that have been marching and in the middle there are also very nuanced different groups and youre right what it comes to the issue of black lives matter theyre not really very happy with the citys mayor they feel that many of her policies as an africanamerican woman that has grown up in washington d. C. Have actually been detrimental to many of the poorest blacks in the community for example allowing Property Values to rise the taxation levels so high that people that have been in their home for many many generations no longer can afford to pay the bills are pushed out of washington d. C. And whats happening white people are coming in and making this a less Diverse Community so theres their argument is that you really dont always speak for us so its been a problem but overall i think what has happened in this movement is that there is one unified message that there is a problem of racism in policing there is a problem of aggressive use of force that i should point out happens whether youre white or black in some cases and theres also a problem of oppressing those that they often have the least means to defend themselves so i think the overarching message is very strong and thats why its now going to be taken up in terms of legislation on capitol hill the House Democrats we know are going to take the 1st steps in a long legislative process at least at the federal level to stop. Reforming policing looking at systemic racism looking at the use of Police Practices chokeholds can hurt you no matter what your skin color is they also know that there have been cases where the bad cops that have multiple charges against them as in the case of the Police Officer that knelt on George Floyds nass neck killing him at igniting these protests that if there was a registry to make sure those cops were not on the street after multiple allegations against them that would solve a lot of problems so the 1st step the legislation being unveiled on capitol hill on monday and what will people are really looking towards is wednesday because thats when an emotional hearing will take place on this legislation and well be hearing from George Floyds brother but we should also point out while this is looking at federal policing a lot of the change has to come at the Grassroots Level where often the voting mesha especially among young people pitifully low according to brock obama so this is just the 1st step in what may take a generation hopefully less to try and reform kimberly thank you so much can be held at White House Correspondent there reporting live for the news hour the mayor of new york says hes lifting the city could if you off the south that is relatively peaceful protest bill de blasio has also announced disciplinary action against some Police Officers for their handling of the demonstrations kristen salumi joins us live with that angle on this big story out of new york city christine just looking behind you there the protest making a point but it looks perfectly perfectly peaceful. Yeah the last 24 hours have seen a lot of people coming out into the streets for rallies martin is that is continuing and they have been largely peaceful here i you know you can see were in Lower Manhattan its kind of between events right now but lots and lots of people are out with their signs waiting for the next march as we march through the streets. Earlier people on the sidelines were cheering and. Taking pictures horns honking as people passed so there is a lot of support for this movement. Throughout new york that weve seen and its starting to have an impact on leaders as well the mare and now earlier as you mentioned that he is getting rid of the curfew that was in place starting at 8 pm that was something that demonstrators have rallied against and said violated their Constitutional Rights last night it wasnt place in many continue to stay on the streets past the curfew but the police took kind of a hands off approach and by all accounts it was a relatively peaceful my we dont have exact numbers on a rest but the mare said that it was the best it was a showed the best that the city could be and showed the city at its best and so as a result of that weve got the curfew being rolled back another mare also talking about shifting funding away from police to Community Organizations that can deal with communities of color where issues are perhaps the strongest that leads to encounters with police thats a major concession on the part of bill de blasio a lot of detail still needs to be worked out and exactly what hes talking about how hes talking about doing that. By talking about taking money away from the Police Officers that something very strongly weve been hearing from demonstrators on the streets over the last couple of days Governor Cuomo not going quite that far he also unveiled his own Reform Program thats expected to be voted on this week so a lot of things happening in response to this outcry that were seeing in one quick concern i should bring up tomorrow is the reopening in new york for the coronavirus after 2 months of being shut down stores being closed manufacturing being stopped some things are going to start reopening on monday so were seeing the protest movement continue to go strong but also moves towards reopening the city and some concern from the governor about people catching the coronavirus at events like this you can see is a lot of people out. A lot of people Wearing Masks in groups so they have up to the testing in new york city as a result of that theyre encouraging people who are attending demonstrations to get tested all of that to say that the demonstrators are showing no signs of letting up continue to hit the street in force and what continues to be at this point mostly a peaceful demonstration christine thank you very much kristen salumi our correspondent there in new york well and see racism protesters in brazil have taken to the streets in Rio De Janeiro many of them are also marching to voice their anger against the government and president. Of the coronavirus pandemic the government recently decided to stop publishing its running total of virus deaths and infections and critics say the move is an attempt to hide the worlds 2nd highest number of cases last in america to the sea and human joins us live now from santiago to see it welcome to the news do we know what the latest figures are and how much those figures generating. But they just figures in terms of corona virus we do know there are at least 64000 deaths but the infection rate is still a big question because there hasnt been really widespread testing in brazil and whats happening now is that people believe that the government is trying to manipulate those figures by not publishing as you say the running total for a while there John Hopkins University wasnt even including brazil any longer because of this president. Has been under a lot of pressure from Political Parties governors mayors and the medical community but he says hes not going to budge theyre going to only run the daily total of deaths and and today we understand that its expected to be between one and a half to 2000 People Per Day thats more than one person per minute which is extremely high as for these demonstrations they actually have but were called before others in other countries got together to protest against racism in the world in their own countries and in the United States it was called against bulls and thats because its believed that he is attacking democracy in brazil he is not handling property responsibly the pandemic and that is why the country has this enormous number of infections and. This just about for the for a long time people were staying indoors because the governors have called for lockdowns not the not the president but now theyre beginning to come out to show that they also count that their opinions count and that they are more than those smaller groups that have been out every single week especially on sundays with the president himself without face masks or any other social distancing measures to show their support for him so its going to be now a tug of war to see who can bring more people out onto the streets. Unpack the numbers for us if we can or give us a broad sense and see if the people who are demonstrating do they just want to transparency from mr. Or do they want him gone i mean all the protests crossing the line into being Anti Government demonstrations. Absolutely this goes way way beyond the pandemic what we have in brazil is a very very dangerous cocktail you have an extremely difficult Economic Situation there was a recession before that economic the Economic Situation in brazil the number of unemployed the number of people who are homeless the people who have no food and of course no medical attention has grown tremendously since the pandemic started in some places more than others but it is serious everywhere and then on top of that you have a president who is fighting with the institutions to take even the with the Supreme Court and who has said publicly that he will not obey of any decision by the Supreme Court which is investigating him and his sons for wrongdoings that. Theoretically at least impeachable offenses so hes already said he will dock go with whatever one of the most important independence situations of the country says and this is some of his more fanatical if you like supporters have been protesting in front of the Supreme Court Building Armed saying that they would that they want the Supreme Court judges to be imprisoned and or killed so were getting i would see the real confrontation now between the 3 areas of the of the discrete Democratic Institutions of Brazil Congress is sort of city there in the middle but then you also have a government that has more and more bringing in the military into the cabinet into key posts and so there is a lot of fear amongst brazilians that this could lead to a military coup or some kind of a military intervention against the state of democracy in that country it based on farfetched some say but it isnt something that hasnt happened before ok lucien human thank you so much and thats america reporting live from some to argo. Lets bring in good stuff hes the founder of the brazilian report an online magazine he joins us from sao paolo in brazil ghosts of a riviera welcome to the news hour here his critics would say of mr paulson r. O. Hes been hiding his head in the sand for months and months now for him what do you think he thinks hes trying to achieve by handling this crisis in this very particular way. Thanks for having really since the beginning of the pandemic. The Leather World the severity of corporate needs in crisis and has tried to the flick any blame for the economic fallout of the pandemic or the death toll. From the from the start what he tries to do is to put the blame on state governors because here in brazil we are a federation then lowered ministrations have a lot of power so hes trying to the flag the fire the flight of blame just yesterday he said that the millions of jobs that are being shut down brazil are by no means the federal governments fault and now because of the quarantines created by state governors the 3 worst affected countries lets globalized this gustava the 3 worst affected countries the United States the u. K. And brazil youve got 2 president s and one Prime Minister would it be fair to say that all 3 men Boris Johnson both sonar and donald trump they all have that kind of populist tinge to them where they go for a simple dynamic of politics where they try to sell a message and yet theres a disconnect theyre not handling that popularity and that populous message that they desire to put their desire to have when it comes to popularity theyre not handling it very well theyre not handling the crisis very well thats what their critics might say. Absolutely and i think the comparison between boss another and donald trump is the best one because most of the has taken his political cuckoos from the american president from going against socialism lation should the found the hydroxide chloroquine as a possible cure for 19 to defend the major crackdown by military forces when we have a government or in say races protesters this week he has called and to fascist movements that have protested against his administration terrorists which is. Mimicking what donald trump has done over the past week will this do for mr paulson r. O. Could this end his political career if he carries on determined lee doggedly trying to handle it in the way hes handling it because it occurs to me you know you cant disguise people whove got 19 you cant hide them away you cant make them disappear and people talk to people and clearly even through websites like your own the truth will get out there. You cant hide quoted 1000 patients but has to sure that the government is doing everything in its power to do so for instance we have shown just yesterday on the president reports that in places where authorities are saying that they are beating over the 19 and that the death numbers are very low we have seen skyrocketing numbers for deaths related to acute respiratory syndrome so the government is trying to do any kind of way to not only more so now the but also state governments are trying to hide the data we regarding if this will do for boston at least hard to predict right now because of many question marks we have in brazil this far boston are the is by any standard the least popular president in history recent history after just 15 months in office but then we have late last year just told the very big presence of the military forces that have remained quite them big was to their commitments for the marker see they at one point hint. To supporting bush so there are those democratic rampant at other points they say that they will keep order in brazil so that them be gear with see has deterred many actors from pursuing action against also now though there is also the question that nobody knows whats the deal with the Vice President who is a former army general and no impeachment has moved forward in brazil without political actors knowing what will happen once the president dissolved so there are too many question marks to know right now the president has engaged in horace trading politics to manage just enough votes d maybe to block an impeachment so at this point at least in the near future i think it would be safer to assume that both another will stay put. But without power to do much at least not democratically ok good stuff or great to talk to again thanks for your insight good stuff rabiya are there in a couple of brazil. And solidarity protests against racism have been hurled across europe including in london for a 2nd day in a row thousands of people gathered outside the u. S. Embassy the demanding an end to systemic racism and Police Brutality is not a bubble. I was marching to the American Embassy but demanding change at home the protest in london was the latest of many across the u. K. That have echoed events in the United States but demonstrators a clear that there are huge challenges facing their own country and 5 people think the case in this and you case like you said not all that happens here every day people dont speak about it but finally before speaking up people started to know by this current moment in time the black lives are being largely affected were 1st Police Brutality were 1st introduced lies racism and people are here to fight to say no more before the weekend britains home secretary said people should not be attending protests because of the risk of spreading covered 90. When he wore mosques physical distancing wasnt always possible but for many the importance of making a stand outweighed any fears theres been a series of protests here inspired by the killing of george floyd in the u. S. But bringing in grievances specific to britain as well and theyre part of a trend that spread right across europe now in italy they gathered for an impromptu protest in rome taking a need for nearly 9 minutes the same length of time a white Police Officer had his knee on George Floyds name. There was also a large anti racism demonstration in the spanish capital madrid was the one youre looking to do think this is about racism which i think is institutional and structural and we have to protest against it this was one more case that shows that the system damages a minority and because we are not protesting every day does not mean it doesnt exist. Back in britain they pulled down a statue of a 17th century slave trader in the city of bristol one common demand on recent protests is better education about black history. I. As people continue to take to the streets across europe discussions are starting which many people feel a long overdue nadeem barbara aljazeera. Coronavirus pandemic has now crossed another milestone the number of people dead globally has now crossed 400000 the total number of infections is nearing 7000000. 00 the us has the highest number of fatalities and infections followed by brazil russia and the u. K. India has become the 5th worst affected country in the world nearly 10000 new cases were reported on sunday the highest daily increase so far the number of deaths is rapidly on the rise in latin america but as weve been hearing today brazils government has stopped publishing its running totals critics say that is an attempt to hide the worlds 2nd highest number of infections doctors in afghanistan well theyre warning of a looming disaster because hospitals are fast running out of beds the number of reported infections above 20000. 00 but a shortage of testing kits means the total could be much higher. Were doing 2000 tests in our lab every day that we are receiving 10 times that many samples and it takes 5 to 10 days to get the results of these tests beds and Quarantine Centers clinics and hospitals are filling up very quickly were not able to diagnose korean team and treat all our patients because of a lack of medical facilities staying with her story vicky kern is the country director of the International Rescue committee in afghanistan she thinks enforcing social distancing is difficult for a majority of afghans because they live in poverty. Afghanistan currently has over 12000000 people that are food insecure and with covert its likely only to get worse unlike other countries many other countries afghans need to work every day just to put food on the table for that day so social distancing staying at home is not an option even if there are lockdown measures in place because the choice is between starvation or catching kogut and most afghans are going to risk over it if you look at the numbers of male versus female that have officially been tested positive for kobe but there are many more men but this could be because women have a difficult time accessing Health Care Facilities for cultural reasons globally 75 percent of the Health Care Workforce is female in afghanistan according to the human humanitarian Response Plan only 15 percent of nurses were female and 2 percent of doctors and with the Health Facilities being overwhelmed there are there are just many dont have separate areas for females while staying with another aspect of the pandemic is countries in europe start with much from locked on the u. K. Is about to enter its next stage 14 days of quarantine for most International Arrivals into britain critics question how useful the measure will be as there is little evidence new cases are being imported its also anger at the Tourism Industry which accounts for about 10 percent of the economy john a whole reports from one of the most popular Tourist Spots struck for the pony from birthplace of William Shakespeare.

If William Shakespeare were alive today he might have turned covert 19 into an opportunity he did after all produce some of his greatest and darkest works while under lockdown himself at home during successive outbreaks of the bubonic plague in the late 16th and early 17th century. Spirit deadly disease had drama and tragedy written all over it but the actors and Theatre Companies given life by his works now as then face financial ruin yeah were sure that shakespeare really understood the emotional difficulties of being in lockdown and the economic difficulties he had some options that its even harder for us right now so often when theres a place in london they would go off on tour because they would find that actually transmission wasnt as bad outside london of course the Global Economy means that transmission has been the same everywhere so we havent got some of the options he had but we do have his plays the play that i was rehearsing just before we had to close the tail. Almost certainly written in a time of lockdown because of plague and it really speaks of healing that can happen after long periods of not being able to do what you want to do plagues have come and gone theater and shakespeares plays survived above all today he might have urged patience come want to come may says macbeth time and the hour runs through the roughest day jonah how aljazeera Stratford Upon Avon still to come here on the news hour for you the libyan warlord telly for half as allies push for a ceasefire as the un recognized government prepares for a new advance.

This is the worlds biggest fruit and vege market this entire would be about. And its become a hotspot for covert infections in mexico that it. Its not hard to see why its an ant hill of activity a city within a city is they say here we dress like this to go in knowing which way to us but most people here work with next to no protection when you lifting this. Even the most slows you down and as for not touching others face gets off a 1000000 visitors every day theres really no way that they can motion this thing going without one fish market Officials Say they have managed to lower the number of clients coming in during coded that theyve had less than 500 cases but most of the people we talked to have been sick have there been people from your fiction avoided. A woman or woman yes some in this is known around 9 or 10. A 100. 00 has been able to but after a month in isolation you have to come back.

Follow says from. He has had this stool for years but its in trouble. Its really hit us there are days when we just have to throw the producer way fiber 10 creates that we have to check out now traders say things are Getting Better numbers are picking up as the country begins to reopen the question is if fresh customers mean fresh covert cases to join home and how does it or make scarcity. Ok lets just show you some live pictures coming to us out of Central London what youre looking at right now appears to be an effort on the part of the metropolitan police force to in effect cattrall protesters inside. The area of Trafalgar Square where the been coalescing around nelsons column over the past 2 or 33 and a half 4 hours perhaps to the right of that shops we dont have any control over this camera but just to give you a more precise idea of what were looking at to the rights of the shot or now underneath that shot would be the mel with his pink tarmac leading up to Buckingham Palace clearly the metropolitan police force is run by a Police Commissioner crested adik protesters to find another way to make their views heard. Has taken the policy decision that those people should be kept there why well because if they get through those archways theyve got a clear line of sight to Buckingham Palace and if they were to hang a sharp left that would take them around to Horse Guards Parade and then they could sort of bunny hop their way through or around St Jamess Park if they wore warranting to get to Buckingham Palace of course the majesty Queen Elizabeth seconds official residence in london president dick has been urging the protesters to. Go another road literally and metaphorically thousands of protesters massed for a 2nd day outside the u. S. Embassy thats what weve seen in the past 678 hours before they made their way to whitehall perfectly peacefully. Our correspondent on the ground not even barber was taking us through the atmosphere was generally pretty good we have seen other protests around the u. K. Edinburgh glasgow wolverhampton manchester and the city of nottingham as well well keep an eye on those live pictures for you if there are any major developments. Well bring them to you just as soon as we can you can see there it would be nice if that we could get a slightly closer shot as i say we dont control the camera so we cant the police are being pushed back by the sheer weight of numbers of the demonstrators who are there where the mile meets Trafalgar Square youre just on the westerly edge of the west end of london as well youre adjacent to the strand theater land and along to the old witch as well one protester or perhaps an innocent possible by the gentleman there being held to the ground by the police a woman there being taken away. By a policeman you can see there what looks like traffic cones theyve either been thrown from left to right from camera left to camera or theyve just been knocked over because the police were moving back and forth just before we went to these pictures the police were moving back and forth in a wave and we had a slight we had a very small aerial shot as well that showed a very relatively small number of metropolitan police being called up as reinforcements and you can see there now the police not moving as such so theyre not being pushed.
