And other world news the u. S. Now has more than 3000000 corona virus infections and President Donald Trump is being accused of enabling it spreads the old Governor Andrew Cuomo is urging him to acknowledge the outbreak as a major problem Infectious Disease expert Anthony Fauci says the u. S. Is still need deep in the 1st wave with more than 50000 new cases a day but trump has tweeted about the u. S. Having the worlds lowest fatality rate and called for school so reopened in the fall. We are still need deep in the 1st wave of this and i would say this would not be considered a wave it was a surge or resurgence of infections superimposed upon a baseline francis that really never got down to where we wanted to go if you look at the at the grass from Europe Europe the European Union as an entity it went up and then came down to baseline now theyre having little blips as you might expect is they try to we open we would help never came down to baseline and now were searching back so its a serious situation that we have to address immediately brazil which is struggling to contain the virus is easing more restrictions bars restaurants and out of business is a reopening in sao paulo and india has become the country with the 3rd highest number of cases every 4 did nearly 50000 new infections in just the past 2 days i White House Correspondent kimberly haokip has more on the situation in the u. S. Well theres a spike in cases all across the United States 40 out of the 50 showing really increased and record breaking in some cases numbers of coronavirus cases and that has certainly got the new york governor or the democratic governor concerned as you point out he says the president is enabling the virus whats he talking about well the u. S. President over the weekend really tried to downplay this number saying that the reason that there is an increase is because theres more testing going on and that 99 percent of the people that get corona virus will get harmless this is certainly something that the new york governor has pushed back on mr president dont be a coconspirator of covert do one simple thing acknowledge to the American People that covert exists. It is a major problem its going to continue until we admit it. To do our part well the u. S. President has not been admitting that is a major problem instead in the last hour hes been pushing back against his joe biden the democratic president ial nominee hell be facing off against in november in fact hes saying that far more people would have died if joe biden was in the white house pushing back on the criticisms about closing trav close in the United States travelers from china hes also said that deaths are down 39 percent in the United States and again is pushing for the economy to reopen ease been as we see some states starting to close acknowledging they may have open too soon in the case of southern florida we now see jims closing as well as some dining room still the u. S. President pushing ahead with reopening twitting and all caps that schools especially should reopen in the fall. Bondy has begun mass testing folk over 19 in its largest city newly inaugurated president ever is nice to me has indicated that hes taking the outbreak more seriously than his predecessor fewer than 200 infections up in reported but there are fears the true number could be much higher Catherine Story reports. When boonies president everest declared coronavirus the biggest threats to the country last week his government swung into action temporary Testing Centers have been hardly set up an open folds in the commercial capital bujumbura Health Workers are arching people to get tested and many like me monomania triss are volunteering. The problem has been the make use of it spreads easily its also difficult protect yourself is exercise a good move by the government because if you have symptoms or not you can still get tested it has been a total change of policy from the previous government led by the late president. Who said wounded is protected by god refused to enforce strict social distancing measures and expelled World Health Organization officials who raised concerns the shift in tone by the new president comes as the number of confirmed cases rises as more people get tested you could assure we have enough supplies including testing kits we have provided everyone at the Testing Centers with the mosques in kenya a president who has announced a face to he 15 of its locked down despite coronavirus cases increasing people can now move freely across the country charges in mosques are to reopen back to some conditions domestic flights are to resume later this month and International Travel in august should the situation deteriorate and is a challenge to our health infrastructure.

Public awareness and we should not you shouldnt beefing up monitoring of cases but i think in countries where you have that its half past noncommittal almost a response or slow response then weve been stuck in the cycles of lock downs and rear ends and surges the Africa Center for Disease Control says more than 400000 people in africa have tested positive carpet 19 the World Health Organization is worried the virus is now spreading widely across the continent which could make it the next epicenter catherine soy aljazeera.

The early stages of what looks like a very damaging in the number of cases by Global Standards american standards and some of this its not a huge problem as yet the biggest one day spot was yesterday with 120 places but because it was going very much in the wrong direction to it particularly great no.

Were victoria and more specifically malvern is a hot spot for infections you know 9 Public Housing towers havent even been put under lockdown with with some 3000 people unable to leave and these restrictions and a standard affecting people for from you know no income backgrounds some of whom dont even speak english so i imagine it must be a very difficult experience for them how do you see this crisis affecting Australian Society in the short and long term. Its really its been interesting to hear a lot of those voices from from people that we tend sometimes to be much allies they are in firearms house commissions house. Towards the center of the city theyre not theyre not sort of on the outskirts as they are in some cities but we we really. Very heavily skewed which markets refugee backgrounds and english is a problem so thats you know. Again were in the realty stages of this. Report and i dismiss lockdown and already some of the really distressing stories are emerging of people who are stuck in spam or its very small by go out. You know on the corner of the there are no injuries so there is some resentment building there on the.

The ultranationalist marks connected with one of the worlds poorest humanitarian crises. Illegally my grand joining with the military to impose a deadly political agenda we have to protect our nation what has happened to the revenge thats one of the biggest stains on the country as a whole. As another religion this is the politics me and an unholy alliance on aljazeera. Who were. Born with the anyway i. Welcome back youre watching aljazeera with me fully back to reminder of our top stories the u. K. Has announced economic sanctions on those involved in the murder of saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi 49 individuals and organisations have been targeted and under the governments new system to punish him and white offenders the u. S. Is still need deep in the 1st wave of coronavirus with more than 50000. 00 new cases a day d thats according to Infectious Disease expert anthony found cheap but President Donald Trump says the u.

Southern japan is expecting more rain after days of flooding that have killed at least 40 people about half a 1000000 people have been advised to evacuate their homes robert reich reports. A weekend of punishing rains across the Southern Japanese island of q shoe and this is the result.

Robert bright aljazeera. China has warned the u. K. To stay out of hong kongs affairs or face consequences as unhappy as criticism of the new National Security line polls there and Prime MinisterBoris Johnsons plan to offer millions from hong kong a path to british citizenship the u. K. Side knows what. Is no longer under its colonial rule and the hong kong has retained john and is now. Youll hear has no sovereignty restriction or rights of supervision over. After and the ira the ok government keeps making a responsible remarks on hong kong. Through its sole or 6 monthly recall on. The u. S. Says it will force foreign students to leave the country if all of their classes are moved online because of the coronavirus pandemic while most colleges are yet to announce their plans harvard says all its classes strums september will be conducted on line last month each Month Administration suspended visas for some Foreign Workers saying it would create jobs for americans but critics say the white house is exploiting the pandemic to tighten immigration rules or that speak to about this she is professor of law at Rutgers University and joins us from new war new work in new jersey thank you very much for being with us on aljazeera so why do you think this is happening these restrictions on foreign students is it another case of the Top Administration wanting to reduce the number of legal immigrants in the u. S. In the name of carville or perhaps an attempt to intimidate universities to open i mean the president did say he wanted school so open in the fall why do you think this is happening now. Well 1st its a very sudden and unexpected move many of the major universities including horror and other large Public Schools were surprised at this sudden release that has meijer impact on the revenue of universities post private and public because effectively what it says is if a university is online then International Students must go home if theyre here and cannot come if they are planning to return to attend school and if University Starts in person but then switches online in the middle of the semester because for example the covert 1000 and demick increases again then those students must then go home in the middle of the semester and the only programs for miscible for them to stay in the us are what they call hybrid programs so this is going to have a devastating effect on u. S. Universities who admit 20 percent of the worlds 5300000 International Students in other words one point 1000000. 00 International Students come to the u. S. And that generates 41000000000. 00 or more the u. S. Economy jewish and and Living Expenses and economic benefits so an impact on the universities you say what about the students said the these foreign students in the us how is their life going to be affected and d i presume that a number many of them could naturally go back home because of some of that restrictions in place in these countries. Its devastating because one they may not be able to continue their education at that particular university because many of the schools may go back in person next praying or possibly next fall after theres hopefully a vaccine but also some of them cannot return home for various reasons and they have they have changed their life completely in order to be here but going back to what trumps political objective is is hes clearly continuing and immigration agenda as in a phobic immigration agenda which is to keep as many people that are from the global south and the global east out of the United States whether its through the muslim band whether its through immigrant work visas and now immigrant earth student visas theyre not immigrants theyre nonimmigrants of student visas but essentially they he wants to keep most of these students out because its no coincidence that 33 percent almost 34 percent now the one point 1000000. 00 actual scenes are from china right 18 percent are from india 5 percent from saudi arabia another 5 percent from south korea and then the rest are from various countries again most of which are from the east the middle east or the latin american Central America so what Legal Recourse do these students these f one students have right now if any. Unfortunately there are those who are abroad who have very little recourse because if you when you are outside the country and youre coming in as attempting to come in as a nonimmigrant the u. S. Government has complete discretion in terms of the set issuance and basic cancellation there is a possibility that those who are already here may be able to File Lawsuits but again thats prohibitively expensive because you have to have a lawyer in our them can afford it so i think the best means to challenge this is going to come from me American Association of educators which is effectively the association of all universities because they are the biggest losers financially while the students are the biggest losers both financially educationally and and personally so i anticipate that theres going to be a major pushback on this and it will be interesting to see how the congress is that gets involved because maybe pressure to legislate around it to tie up the president s hands or it may be the judges that have to intervene again through some kind of claim that this is a violation of of Due Process Rights or some other constitutional right thank you so much for a violation of the administrative procedures act ok thank you so much for a insights are always good to talk to you about the size he is professor of law at Rutgers University thank you now the former partner of convicted sex offender jeffrey ive seen has been moved to a new york jail a british socialite get a maxwell was arrested then charge in New Hampshire on 3 say shed been held over the weekend at a jail in the air her luxury home maxwell is accused of working with have seen to facilitate a sex trafficking ring. Millions of afghans are unable to see their countrys Cultural Treasures precious items like some of the worlds earliest such as a buddha can only be seen in major museums and they arent known to other parts of the country while now afghan teachers have joined forces with historians at the university of chicago to make afghanistans ancient art more accessible john hendren experience. Under the taliban this would have been unthinkable bringing pre islamic art to students boys and girls across afghanistan. We feel like were inside the National Museum and watching all of the history our country has 5000 years of history we knew about it but we did not see them close up in conflict ravaged afghanistan travel can be prohibitively expensive often dangerous sometimes impossible so in an extraordinary collaboration with the u. S. State department the university of Chicagos Oriental Institute has crafted 3 d. Replicas of the historic treasures of the National Museum of afghanistan in kabul afghanistan is one of the richest areas in the world for the history of the development of civilizations and this very Rich Heritage has been threatened over the last 30 or 40 years by constant warfare that has devastated not only the country and its people but also the Cultural Heritage the history that defines what that country is. Now halfway around the globe a mobile museum is taking replicas of afghanistans Cultural Heritage on tour let you go to the dog i saw all these specimens only and but but today we saw them right here this creature is called a lawsuit it stood outside the assyrian palace of king sargon in what is now Northern Iraq around 700. 00 b. C. It has the body of a bull the wings of an eagle and the wisdom of man and for that reason its just the kind of graven image the groups like i still have destroyed sac religious the goal of the museum is to preserve endangered art like this and in afghanistan where many people cant come to the museum to bring the museum to them. And the project is one part Education One part cultural preservation to end the kind of efforts to erase known islamic Cultural Heritage that occurred when the taliban blew up these massive 6 century buddhist figures and bombing. All. The factions happen in the villages because often lack of knowledge about the importance of the city. With the taliban actively seeking a return to power the replicas recreated in a university of chicago lab or also insurance that whatever happens to the original objects of art crafted on afghan soil the countrys historical artifacts will not be erased john hendren aljazeera chicago.
