Aljazeera of more on the outbreak in latin America Daniel sheiner joins us live from one is iris and of course the region was trailing europe in terms of the way in which the virus escalated how serious is the epidemic becoming now. I mean very serious marianne and it has been for some time i mean the global total of people infected is over 40000000 about 10000000 of those are here in latin america 400000 deaths which is about a 3rd of the global total you mentioned colombia approaching now its grim 1000000. 00 mark 30000. 00 deaths there argentina passed that limit some some days ago 28000. 00 deaths here both mexico and peru are approaching 900000 so again a serious problem problems in those 2 countries but by far the worst is brazil which has had over 5000000 people infected with the virus 157000 people have died and the president himself president job also naro you may remember called the virus a little flu very few measures there to try to contain the virus he was saying he would have the infection and recover and recovered from it but whether theres tight restrictions or not the virus seems to be spreading pretty much everywhere very few bright spots across the whole region and it doesnt make the headlines perhaps often enough but really this is now i suppose in in many ways one of the most affected regions in the world by the pandemic and thats going to have a very big impact on the regions economy at the sort of post Pandemic Recovery period. What will it already is a many year ago the world bank predicted that the region as a whole the economies would grow by 1. 8 percent theyve revised that to say that in 2020 they are likely to shrink over the whole region by 7. 2 percent and were already seeing the consequences of that businesses closing a massive unemployment certainly more people on the streets i mean even outside the office here coming into work with seeing people more people sleeping in shop doorways and increasing numbers of demonstrations against measures that governments may impose to try to contain the virus people saying they want to go back to work i mean one of the problems in latin america is a lot of people millions of people work in the informal economy they simply cant afford to stay at home they know they know what the consequences may be they know theyre putting themselves at risk of catching the virus but they need to go out to work to feed their families so theyre having to do that and were seeing the consequences in these increased numbers are rising right across the region thanks very much from one designs down in china. Well armenia and azerbaijan are battling on 2 fronts now between them the 2 nations have over 120000 people affected by the pandemic that head of the Infectious Diseases ward in the capital of the disputed province of nagornokarabakh say 9 out of every 10 people in the city have to panic could have the virus there are no official figures for this but its thought that crime to bomb shelters could be accelerating the spread all the while the bombing continues with heavy shelling on friday night both on me me and azerbaijan have accused each other of hitting residential areas with hundreds of people reported killed in weeks of fighting or a challenge looks now at the deadly relationship between the conflict and the virus. Disease and war have been close companion since humans have been around. And this humanitys latest war is being accompanied by humanitys latest disease these are the shelters of step on a curtain nagornokarabakh during the recent bombardment people crammed together by no mosques the perfect environment for covert 19. 65 and papa spotted when people are forced to hide or be in a close spears like a bomb shelter we cannot speak about social distancing mosque ring is the obligation of any human being you have a more dangerous problem in front of you as its war and we think peoples attention shifts and priorities change. The people fleeing the fighting in the going to karabakh are taking the virus with them some 90000 have spread out across armenia near the border in the town of gori at least 60 refugees are living in this requisition School Building so on the 1st floor of this kindergarten beyond this door there are 5 families who are quarantining obviously we cant go any further than this but this lady has decided shed like to speak to us about it can you tell us what is happening why you quarantining behind is to. Leave on the table one of us got sick now hes in a stable condition he doesnt have fever the all good i just want our government to stop this war we have disease on one side and war on another. Of course its likely refugees are catching coded 19 from their Host Communities too and not just bringing it with them the virus is a problem all across this small country with more than 75000. 00 cases out of a population of nearly 3000000 armenia is in the worst 20 countries in the world for cases per 1000000 people on the other side of the battle lines azerbaijan is being hit by covert 19 to 7 cities and towns are now under lockdown but according to official figures the problem isnt as severe as armenias 5000. 00 cases per 1000000 of the population compared 225000 in armenia those being displaced by the fighting say they are doing their best. Oh my goodness yes were worried about the coronavirus thats why were doing all the preventive actions to be safe were wearing the mask similar washing our hands and doing some of the disinfection neither the fight against covert 19 nor the fight against each other are over yet both will likely kill many more azeris and armenians rory chalons how does iraq go rest armenia. Meanwhile india is struggling to contain the corona Virus Outbreak and soaring pollution in new delhi is making it even more difficult for people to breathe pollution levels reached sivia on saturday with conditions the worst seen in 8 months elf experts are warning the pollution may make it difficult to control the spread of the virus as winter approaches india has reported almost 8000000 kovac 1000 cases and of 100000 deaths well as much more still ahead for you on this news off the market in.

All of them civilians and agents of the security forces. All the final tally has been unknowns to deal position right do not be declining as a result they move in to contest the outcome in the Constitutional Court shelob ellis aljazeera. Or President Donald Trump cost his ballot more than a week before the president ial election he went to a voting station near his private resort in West Palm Beach florida its a crucial battleground state of course which cheney and joe biden a fighting over well in 50000000 americans have already voted with many people opting for mail in ballots trying to had requested one even though hes right he said theyre open to fraud though hes offered no evidence to support that claim. Very secure vote much more secure that when you send in a ballot i could tell you that everything was perfect very strict right by the rules when you send in your ballots could never be like that you could never be secure like that theyve done a fantastic job will be great people and. So but its an honor to be voting its an honor to be in this great area which i knew so well well thomas opponent democrat nominee joe bidens held a rally in another battleground state pennsylvania he was telling people that the election could come down to their vote cards or heart unemployment is way out folks are worried about making their next rent or mortgage payment whether their health care will be ripped away in the middle of a pandemic worried about sending their kids to school worried about not sending their kids to school they see folks at the top doing much better all the rest are wondering who is looking out for me as donald 8 trumps presidency. So to bring you this scene that were keeping an eye on in 2 places of course youve got a joe biden speaking there at the moment in pennsylvania and then you have just there on the right hand side of the screen a rally of Trump Supporters awaiting his presence in ohio of course as you saying its now pretty much a wildwind nonstop tour of those battleground states in the final 10 days before the election for biden and president trying were expecting president very in ohio very shortly hes been speaking through North Carolina and florida earlier carolina ohio and that wisconsin as well all crucial battleground states and he gallagher joins us live now from miami a what are we what are we hearing from biden and trump in these final days one of the closing pitches to voters. Well the messaging is essentially staying the same as it was all throughout this campaign there is a sense of urgency from the Democratic Party and joe biden that the corona virus has to be tackled head on that there has to be a federal plan to stop this from spreading i remember on friday we got over 80000 cases thats the highest number since the entire pandemic began Something Like 8 months ago from President Trump use rushing around all these battleground states were getting a different message entirely that this thing will all soon be over that the country is turning a corner and even said in an earlier speech in North Carolina that come november the 4th thats the day after the election you wont even hear about coronavirus so the messaging is extremely different from these 2 candidates but here in miami we had the former president barack obama speaking at a drive in rally and this is a man thats known for his diplomacy known for holding back at the moment he isnt holding back at all ive never seen him speak so personally about President Trump mocking him for not having a plan that really trying to encourage young voters and people of color and older voters to get out and make their voices heard so 2 very different messages from 2 very different candidates with just 10 days to go and i think were going to see this all the way up to november the 3rd as they rush around these battleground states which may well decide how this election goes all right thanks very much annie any kalika joining us that well more than 50000000 americans have already cast their vote and an increasing number of people are the youth of course and heres whats happening in 3 key swing states in florida just over 44829 year olds voted early in 2016 according to Tufts University more than 257000 have so far this year in North Carolina it was 25000 last time now almost 205000 have voted in michigan just over 7 and a half 1000 young people voted early 4 years ago compared to a surge of 145000. 200. 00 that is where the figure stands right now all young voters have the numbers to decide in election potentially but they rarely often vote enough to change anything the turnout was particularly low in the primaries but that was before a wave of Police Brutality spread across the country and this is where all began minneapolis john hendren reports now on how this could change who wins. When george floyd died beneath a Minneapolis Police officers need the youth of america food the streets by the thousands. Every 4th november many go a wall ghosting the ballot box i think my one is really going to make a big difference in the grand scheme of things and yeah i voted for Hillary Clinton last time and i felt bad doing it and it didnt make a lick of difference. Young voters overwhelmingly lean liberal with 18 to 34 year olds in a recent poll preferring Democrat Joe Biden over the republican President Donald Trump by a whopping 37. 00 Percentage Points but americans over 60 are more than twice as likely to vote to be totally honest im not going to be voting for for either candidate. The ongoing protests over alleged Police Brutality against black americans could change that sending more young voters to the polls i know a lot of people who will be voting for biden a College Student at the university of minnesota aden boozing once back Bernie Sanders but now supports biden here and 28000 we already had the highest voter turnout of any large campus in the United States but i think ill definitely continue after being in that dishonor the georgia flight protests the democratic primary sanders was the clear favorite of young voters since the death of george floyd propelled the black lives Matters Movement and sent thousands of young demonstrators into the streets to demand changes in the way police treat black americans many have made joe biden their standard bearer but there remains an enthusiasm gap. Here and across the u. S. That gap presents a challenge to the Democratic Party bernie is going to have to bring them on board and if you have to push hard to get them to vote so i think that the pro trump young group is more energized right now than the provided group and that age that is apparent in the trump stores that have sprung up around the united. States a phenomenon few president s have inspired the protests exam a q more likely to vote for drum yes most definitely. Changes place around and do a great job when it comes to young voters support the numbers are clearly with biden but with young trump voters showing more enthusiasm for the president all that really matters is who will show up john hendren and use era minneapolis we were speaking about there being massive voter turnouts in the country in the United States but there is still concern as well over Voter Suppression texas for example has limited the number of ballot drop boxes to just one pick out in North Carolina officials there are contesting thousands of mail and ballots and in some states the strict requirement for voter id is being blamed for disenfranchising millions of votes as many of them people of color so for more on this im joined by Kristen Clark she joins us live from washington she is the president executive director of the Lawyers Committee for civil rights under law and of course there have been thousands of legal experts volunteering to help voters navigate changes that they have to deal with and conflict confusion over cost in that ballot can you give us some idea of of the demand that youve been seeing for this type of advice that how many calls youre getting on your hotline and what vote is a saying to you. Sure and that you for having me in my organization runs a program called Election Protection which is the nations largest and longest running nonpartisan Voter Protection program and for the past 2 decades weve been working to ensure that eligible americans all of them are able to freely cast their ballot but 2020 is a different year the pandemic has ended our elections and we have found that voters encounters significant hurdles when it comes to accessing the ballot amid this deadly ongoing pandemic there are states that have in place notary requirements for absentee ballots to count witnessed requirements there are a states that have failed to open up access to go by mail and limited folk i meant to certain categories of people texas and tennessee are 2 of those states and then there are those who are bent on limiting access to drop boxes and are literally taking action at this moment that would make it harder for people to vote by for example eliminating curbside voting which we just saw the Supreme Court put its stamp of approval on this week and what we have done through Election Protection is we have quadrupled the number of legal volunteers we have 23000 legal bawling 2 years working 7 days a week on a hotline i just ask you those volunteers theyve been getting floods of calls and you mentioned texas and tennessee places like florida as well can you what about how much demand how many calls you getting from from battleground states. Well were hearing from voters of color in particular in states like florida pennsylvania michigan wisconsin Georgia People who have faced you know long lines during early voting people who have requested absentee ballots but havent gotten them in so theyre not sure what to do on average were hearing about were getting about 7000 calls a day and that number continues to spike and and thats literally 7 days a week because we know today for example there are a number of states that have opened up early voting in the country so just to be clear you are saying that you have these election changes much of the confusion is driven by the pandemic how pervasive Voter Suppression tactics because in the last decade us i think half the states have adopted measures that require that to be id id requirements in order to vote and restrictions to early voting thats right before the pandemic we had been contending with significant levels of Voter Suppression localities that were shutting down polling sites in communities of color communities that were purging eligible voters from the rolls including lack. In other voters of color states that were putting in place barriers to make it harder to get registered to vote so when you pile the pandemic on top of that existing Voter Suppression you have kind of a perfect storm this is b. And youre in like none other for the American Voter in terms of the significant barriers and challenges that they face when it comes to exercising their voice in our democracy so i just im not trying to i just ask you to just focus if you would on one thing you mentioned it when he was speaking there but these these barriers to voting saying effects communities of color can you tell us more about the particular demographic thats affected by these measures. Black voters are the Number One Community often targeted by these tactics and georgia is exhibit a when it comes to illustrating how Voter Suppression often plays out and bears its ugly head many of us have seen the long lines of lat voters in the atlanta metropolitan area waiting to vote during early voting we saw those same lines in philadelphia and thats because jurisdictions often are not making available sufficient numbers of early voting sites to meet the demand to meet the size of the population in a particular area and there was a push for the senate to allocate money so that states could have the resources they would need to run an election can i just ask you very quickly do you think that this these sort of tactics could backfire if it does you speaking about voter turnout being. Quite significantly greater in this Election Year could it galvanize democrats to turn out all the more to cost the ballots well our work is non partisan and i think that voters have been galvanized and we see that today historic levels of people turning out in places like new york in alabama and in so many parts of the country that are having early voting i think that Voter Suppression exists because these are tactics that sometimes that can work and the American Voter is really bent on stepping out and having boys and showing them that they will not be silenced at this most consequential moment in our democracy well thank you very much for your time joining in the news hour and telling us more about chris and clark present executive director of the Lawyers Committee for civil rights on tunnel thank you thank you for having me.

Are growing concerns that people fleeing the fighting between armenia and azerbaijan a taking the virus with them still crime to bomb shelters could be accelerating the spread and all the top story alpha conde has been declared the winner of gagnes president ial election his supporters of celebrating the win but the countrys opposition has refused to accept the results. When all the stories were following the head of nigerias police has ordered all Police Officers to work in a bid to end the several days of violent unrest 4 day fuel has been lifted in the countrys largest city lagos with a clean up effort now taking place several protesters are reported to have been killed in days of protests against Police Brutality and a notorious anti robbery squad chief of police says he now wants to reclaim public spaces from what he calls criminals moscow writing as protesters. Well if the o. P. s has some in the u. S. Ambassador after President Trump suggested that egypt might blow up its multibillion dollar dam on the nile ethiopia is building the grand renaissance dam on the blue nile the branch thats the source of most of the niles water egypt and sudan the downstream from that and they fear that Water Supplies could be at risk hama vile reports i want to just congratulate all of the words of pride off to brokering going to agreement between sudan and israel to normalize ties but President Donald Trumps next remarks suggested a new conflict in the mideast africa region its a very dangerous situation because egypt is not going to be able to live that way and theyll end up blowing up to them and i said it they said loud and clear dont blow up that dam and they have to do something bigger stuff that they should have started long before we started and should have you let it get built and then you see. Trump preceded those words with actions he ordered aid for ethiopia to be stopped over its failure to respect a u. S. Brokered agreement with egypt and sudan over the ground each open renaissance dam if yo peer began to fill the dams reservoir in july provoking anger in egypt with u. S. President a close ally to egypts of the fatah. He was asked to intervene as a peace broker. But each open ever appeared at ease with thompson mediation and accused him of favoring egypt tromps latest remarks drew a Quick Response from each open Prime Minister and the g. O. P. Has summoned my corrina the American Ambassador to in protest occasional statements of belligerent threats to have ethiopia succumb to unfair terms still abound these threats and affronts to ethiopian sovereignty are misguided unproductive and clear violations of International Law ethiopia will not cave into aggressions of any kind these are obviously pretty outrageous comments from from the president and suggest that hes not really in touch with the reality on the ground the idea of conflict just so this dispute over the nile has always been and very far fetched ultimately hugely counterproductive and it could lead to some sort of regional conflagration while toms comments may have offended each o. P. M. Pleased egypt few appear to be taking the threat of conflict or military action seriously its unclear exactly what his motivation is i think part of it actually vanity i think is these pretty annoyed that the ethiopians. Withdrew from the talks unilaterally refused to show up to washington for what was meant to be the last round of talks i dont think that there is a serious risk that egypt is going to proceed with any sort of military action on that. They made pretty clear that thats not what their priority is what types of statements are likely to push the crisis over ethiopias in a stance dump back into the spotlight and warn both sides that a failure to reach a solution could be dangerous have a divide our desire. Well president made those remarks about the dam after a u. S. Brokered deal for sudan and israel to start normalizing relations its force of a broad agreement that allows the lifting of u. S. Sanctions and saddams removal from a list of state sponsors of terrorism but its not yet sealed and saddams Transitional Government is warning that it needs to be approved by a parliament that hasnt even been formed yet sudan has also seen protests against the deal some of those mirrored in iran with palestinians referring to it as a stop in the back for their cause it morgan is in the sudanese capital khartoum and explains how this normalizing of relations and is going to help a country struggling economy. There were 2 announcements that were made by the us President Donald Trump yesterday the 1st which was more important to sudan was the issue of being delisted from the u. S. List of state sponsors of terrorism now sudans government says that that will give it a lot of economic benefit especially after the inflation rose to a record high of more than 200 last month and market prices have increased making a basic commodities an affordable for many sudanese now weve seen due to the hard currency shortage which is the result of a lack of Foreign Trade between sudan and other countries weve seen that got the government of sudan the Transitional Government struggling to be able to pay for basic commodities such as weve and fuel which resulted in long queues at bakeries and battle stations and more frustrations among people now on the 21st of october there were protests people saying that the government should step up and improve the Economic Conditions that theyre living under and thats one of the reasons that we didnt mean to reason why sudan announced it is normalizing ties with israel now while that 2nd announcement was me the sudanese acting going to offer an offense that says that it is not a complete normalization but people here in sudan feel like theyve been taken advantage of they say that they were at a point of weakness due to the economy and that the government was forced to agree to the normalization because of its state of economy which has seen a lot of people suffering as a result and also due bari has more on the reaction in tehran to the deal. So they were really dismissing this as something that was prearranged and its very much in terms of somebody paid for something to get something in return in terms of iran sudan relationship its interesting to note that they were very close until 2016 every iranian president prior to the honey had paid a visit to khartoum and the previous president of sudan Omar Al Bashir had visited to iran twice there was a very strong relationship between the 2 countries they sever ties in 2016 and that had a lot to do with saudi arabia and irans relationship as well as sudans relationship with saudi arabia in january of 2016 in reaction to an execution that was carried out in saudi arabia of a shiite cleric the number of people stormed the Saudi Embassy in tehran and thats when the saudis withdrew their ambassador and sever ties and sudan followed suit at the same time and they havent had a relationship since then but historically theyve been very close and this by the fact that over the past few years they havent had a relationship this will just be another event that will. Drive them further apart and make any kind of a reconciliation between the 2 countries that much more difficult. All in all the stories were following at least 18 people have been killed by a suicide bomber in afghanistans capital kabul device detonated outside a young Adult Education center in the west of kabul late in the afternoon 57 people are now being treated in hospital for the injuries i still says it was behind the attack violence has spiked in recent weeks despite peace talks between the government and the taliban. Well now france has recalled its ambassador from tokyo off to present russia type on suggested his french count get mental treatment of his attitude towards muslims earlier this month the french president unveiled a controversial plan to reform the practice of islam in his country he said it was to protect the countrys Secular Society and stop the alienation of french muslims but critics say it will suppress religious freedoms. And calls the debate of islam into a secular france was reignited after last weeks beheading of a teacher who showed a cartoon of the prophet mohammed to his class a mosque in france has paid tribute to the teacher with a minutes silence on friday the mom wore a bullet proof vest and there was a heavy Police Presence outside the mosque up to threats against worshippers samuel patty was murdered in a suburb of paris by an 18 year old chechen man who was not actually who wasnt one of his pupils who was later shot dead by police. And of course the french president s proposals have been criticized across the arab world some nations have called for a boycott of french goods with the hash tag boycott french products as discussed this now with Yasser Lighty the head of the justice and liberties for all committee joins us now from paris and were just mentioning there that the tensions between france and turkey with the french ambassador being recalled how might these new policies in france impact their relationship with some muslim countries. When france for a sick in know it its game over for france when it when its going to teach is a human rights and Civil Liberties and the rights of minorities to the rest of the world when we see that muslims today are 5 times more likely or facing discrimination are to work if you are loosely movement wearing a headscarf you have a one percent chance of getting it getting a job if you are black or arab youth if you are 3 times more likely or facing racial profiling by the police all of this in a car that is you know already experiencing tremendous crisis because youre not in crisis mustnt employment etc so to do what the money going to coreys doing hes a little ready to create an identity hysteria around in order not to confront that hes old enough truck record as a president now if france is about human rights and Civil Liberties or what about tackling the reducing the Civil Liberties of a muslim is a no if youre a muslim woman and you cant get a job you cant go to school or you cant work as a safe approved 90 thats a social death sentence and in my view going to call its wrong to make the situation even worse as he is running for reelection in the. Coming months and i just ask you that sort of marginalization and discrimination you describe the treatment of frenchness and these boats ality racial profiling as these particularly in light of recent tragic events in the country and the these things even being discussed. I absolutely know to look at actually a menu in mccall when he was running for election and actually courting the muslim vote and i know for a fact that many mostly need there was an activist campaign for him anywhere in mcallen he said that quote unquote the french state to has its responsibility if you know what they can a zation of french youngsters im not to put things into perspective of how come france which is home to the biggest listing minority in the west is of the same town the country that has passed the greatest number of muesli laws and how its been one of the 1st exporters of all foreign fighters are to die and after every single attack carried on french soil you know the french government whether its from the left or the right are doing exactly what daschle wants by stating when they say we care with these attacks 2 for 2 things are to shed blood and divide the western societies and turn listening into an oppressed minority thats exactly how different it has been acting and today in many when mccall has just said we are going to grow and harass these islamists the biggest problem here is that not only hes creating a new term its looking separatism but theres no definition for it so how do you brace the difference between them the faith and separatism or youre on your own channel madam i asked 2 french experts whats the definition of islamic radicalization of islamic radicalism or radical islam they couldnt come up with one because that allows them to come after in the muslim person they disagree with and this is where we can say that france right now is seeing at tremendous attack on its own foundations and we even see people from the right asking for a change of the constitution is it not to want to talk im just wondering you mention people on the right isnt in this present background well playing politics trying to gonna support from the far right from conservatives ahead of an election and 20 times too. And this is actually a very good question because and without further what is it doing it every single politician who tried to play into the get to please of the far right to vote last she halakhah could not do it Nicolas Sarkozy lost miserably on each one to court the far right vote and Emmanuel Mccall unfortunately he was an outsider he became a candidate within a few months but today he thinks that by a deepening and hes right to riga own identity politics and tackling listings and adopting the far right lexicon he would be able to secure his reelection thats absolutely not and actually hes campaigning for im not independent and unfortunately even 18 months before the election far right ideas are already in power when we see for example if i may add up the minister of interior general domino who is by himself being investigated for rape and Sexual Harassment as we speak said that we carried 51 raids against muslim organizations and individuals and we had nothing on those people and we are just sending a message how in the work and even state that there are human rights being respected here in this country.

I want to turn to libya now because after almost a decade of fighting that country is tossing what is hoped to be a new era of peace with a permanent cease fire under way the deal was signed in geneva on friday and came into force immediately military an armed groups Must Withdraw from the front lines and foreign fighters must leave the country within 3 months out as follows negotiations between the internationally recognized government in tripoli and its rivals in the east malik train has been to misrata hof way between tripoli and the front line at sirte its a city that seen severe hardship since the failed offensive on the capital i mean found mixed opinions on the truce.

But not everyone is as optimistic. Who will guarantee ceasefire weve seen these agreements before the fighting continued libyans dont have the power to make these decisions its the foreign parties who will decide if we will have a ceasefire if they decide to end the fighting maybe then we will have a place in misrata as libyas 3rd largest city and a primary source of military power for the internationally recognized government in tripoli according to city officials over 700. 00 men from the city have been killed in the fighting since world war 2 so the 4 have to launch has failed military campaign to capture the capital. Although many libyans are hopeful that this agreement will lead to a permanent ceasefire and a political solution some are skeptical that warlord Khalifa Haftar and his foreign backers will actually add here to it for abdullah and many libyans like him theres a sense of hope that things here will get better but the real test lies in bloomington the commitments of the agreement well the trainer aljazeera misrata refugees and migrants trying to reach western europe say theyve been abused by croatian authorities the Danish Refugee Council has collected testimonials describing whippings beatings and sexual abuse the haunting has mall.
