Well the challenge is is that. If you look at the nature over these areas it is basically to transmit chips to the contacts and people are always you know. So many gatherings in this area and for the case of uganda and in the cold war particularly this is presenting a very unique situation because that reports that are in that have indicated that because of the conflict situation in cornhole it is quite difficult for humanitarian archives to access the communities and it to them create awareness and busy carli try as much as possible to sensitize the community so that they are aware about how they need to guard against you know contracting ebola moses adore joining us from camp from World Vision International thank you.

Poland is considering naming a military base for trump after the us president promised to deploy an additional 1000. 00 troops there those troops could be relocated from germany which donald trump has criticized for not spending enough on defense trump made the announcement while hosting the polish president at the white house. Things are looking up for the u. S. Polish Alliance Trump welcomed his guest polish president on jury duty with an f. 35. 00 fly over the poles want to purchase more than 30 of the u. S. Made fighter jets a deal like that gets a reward over a fireplace shot trying to suggest that a 1000 additional troops could be relocated from germany to poland we have 52000. 00 troops in germany. That germany is not living up to what theyre supposed to be doing with respect to nato and poland is i have to congratulate you thank you very much poland is seeking more security from the u. S. To quell its concerns about russian activity as well as military equipment the 2 leaders signed a multibillion dollar deal for the sale of u. S. Liquefied gas to poland. For duda the International Visit is also about National Politics poland will hold parliamentary elections later this year shortly before the vote dude i once tried to make an appearance to take part in world war 2 commemorations. On your president ial just a moment mr president we all hope that youll visit us in poland in september when we mark the anniversary of the invasion by nazi germany. Trump says he will consider the invitation for what would be his 2nd official visit to poland and lets get more now from our Political Correspondent Thomas Sparrow who is joining us here in the studio what are we to make of trumps comments well 1st of all theyre not necessarily view weve heard in the past from donald trump but what he thinks about germany when it comes to germanys defense spending that he would like germany to spend much more than what the country is spending weve heard before from donald trump his criticism about germanys planned north spring 2 pipeline with russia on watch he views there as germany becoming hostage of russia those were his words not mine so in a sense this is not new the possibility that there could be sanctions when it comes north is maybe further development of all this but as our xandra correctly pointed from washington i would interpret Donald Trumps words as a sign of what is becoming a very troubled relationship between washington and now that the possibility of sanctions has been firmly put on the table should the German Government be worried they should such in the considerate and look at that very carefully a pretty sure that they are doing that already as i say trumps comments on north into are not new weve heard that many times before but when we look at those comments by donald trump we also have to look at a separate issue when it comes i mean not only about Energy Security donald trump mentioned yesterday in the meeting with what he described as a vital element namely Energy Security the United States as you pointed out is becoming a very Important Energy supplier particularly liquefied natural gas or l. And g. And the u. S. Already exporting l. N. G. To many parts of the world including new contract with poland so when we look at all this we have to understand that donald trump is not only criticizing germany because he believes germany would become hostage of russia it is also doing so because it has very particular interest when it comes to its own Energy Supply and these Energy Exports that hes been talking about lets talk about the images that we saw from the white house i mean you saw. Due to their we saw trump sitting side by side really presenting themselves now as best friends what does it mean for the relationship between germany and poland germany is relationship to poland is extremely important as neighboring countries has been so for a very long time but in the last few years it has been strained weve heard from poland Different Things that are happening that are not in 79 with the way germany views it with this maybe doesnt mean anything practical between germany and poland the fact that the u. S. And poland a signing contracts when it comes to energy when it comes to defense but it does mean that germany again is facing challenges when it comes to its views not only from neighbors like poland also from padma far away the United States and it has to deal with them accordingly so i wouldnt say there will be any practical outcome from this when it comes to german polish relationship but overseas it is something that indeed germany will have to consider very carefully what he looks not only of his relationship with the United States but also its relationship with both thomas ferro thanks for the analysis. Now the 1st round of voting in the race to become the next british Prime Minister takes place later today each of the candidates to become leader of the conservative party has to secure at least 17 votes from their Party Lawmakers to stay in the race former foreign minister Boris Johnson is the current favorite a colorful character and brags that hardliner has vowed to leave the u. K. Out of the european union. The front runner has come to the fore Boris Johnson has promised to see through practice it by the end of october which half of the cost at least that was his pledge to tory voters. If i get in will come out of the deal no deal on that type of that over and over but what would that mean it would mean you come back to baghdad in the good years as a burger is the same promise hes made to right wing members of the conservative party who joined him to kickstart the campaign. He gave me his words to my face that if he became Prime Minister we would leave only 31st of october 3 more that pleases me advocates of a new deal broncs it may have to dream on indeed just Boris Johnson moved away from his previous comments on the matter no longer supporting such a scenario. Its only if we have the guts and the courage to get ready for it that we will carry any conviction in brussels and get the deal we need because they dont want no deal anymore though i do a policy closer to that of to reason may and one that confuse journalists in attendance thank you very much youre telling some supporters youll do everything to avoid leaving the e. U. Without a deal and others that you gladly would do that can the Country Trust you Boris Johnson was not prepared to answer on hong kongs government has again delayed a debate over a new bill that would make traditional extradition to Mainland China easier mass protest against the bill has brought the city to a standstill so much so that the regions Legislative Council would remain closed for another day and residents fear that the law will give china more control over the territory and erode Civil Liberties today authorities have been clearing away barricades that protesters left around government buildings this mornings call follows violent clashes some 70 people were injured as police fired tear gas and rubber bullets into the crowd a much smaller number of protesters have assembled in the city center today under heavy. Care. Unit of you correspondent yes well enjoy joins us now from hong kong so tell us what the situation is in hong kong today after those protests turned violent on wednesday i mean we do see the Police Standing there behind you. Yes behind we use the smallest stand of a piece of People Holding paper with. Slogans written on it asking the police not to shoot the youngsters and the police who have a barrier between and theyre standing there this is a peaceful standoff. So far we see very little direct confrontation the young people they are around they are regrouping they are bringing their supplies of has sent goggles on the Water Bottles to safe places and theyre waiting what is going to happen the police have cordoned off. The the government and parliamentary buildings have erected barriers around so pretty much everybody is waiting what happens next and the protesters themselves they say ultimately that the hong kong chief executive carried lab has sold them out to beijing what is her record on relations with china. The hong kong system makes sure that the chief executive is friendly towards was staging is from the probate gene com thats the electoral system the Electoral College says composition so any chief executive will have to. Be on friendly terms with beijing if she wants to be reelected and this bill is something that the beijing government has made very clear that it wants it and its very clear why it wants it so a lot of people from Mainland China have sought refuge previously in hong kong people who were accused of corruption for example also hong kong booksellers for example have published books that were very critical of the Chinese Party china has abducted some of these people from hong kong they reappeared in chinese courts a clear violation of any law but dont come government has not protested against it so this is speech and this law is supporting mated with beijing at least is not something that you need a lot of time to see to come to this conclusion Mathias Ballinger in hong kong thank you.

This your heart is coverage this isnt over because we want to see the people who set up this case brought to justice yes that was me it would be a joke if all they did was dismiss them from their jobs that are coming at them within the city of houston itself.

Cold enough himself but encourage people not to take part following his release.

Cold enough knew the risks such rallies can bring in moscow those arrested for taking part could now face sentences of up to 20 days in jail. Now to the womens world cup which saw some heavyweight games on wednesday published ellie ellie as has all the action we have to begin with germany and spain because this was a really hard fought win for the germans thats right sara it was a very difficult game for germany and spain spain actually dominated possessions for at this match and but germanys solid defense was really what won them the game and of course the goal because it was a one theyll win in the end but lets take a look actually at this report before we get talking a little bit more about germany. Germany without injured star midfielder Jennifer John were under pressure again spain who created more chances early on but shortly before the break germany applied their own pressure off the cross Alexander Potts header popped out and sell it to a bridge was there to pick up the pieces giving germany a one goal lead after the restart germany kept up the momentum pop again with a header but this time the keeper kept hold. Despite spain having the lions share of the ball they couldnt crack the Germany Defense a late appeal for a penalty was turned down. We are really happy to have picked up this very important 3 points it took a lot of energy and we had a lot of luck in the opening few minutes with the way in germany now top the group with 6 points and are all but through. Like Kress Harrington said there in the report their old both through and through. Act germany are now unbeaten in 14 games and in 5 matches against spain in their 5 meetings with the Spanish National team theyve yet to lose also so good result for germany and there were some other good results yesterday we have to talk about the hosts for example thats right their fans of course stay took on norway and they picked a pretty good result of wins for them that france are actually considered the outsiders and also the countries. Even so the france sides in this tournament and theyve all but secured a place in the knockout stage and frakt what happened was they opened the scoring after the breakthrough but then take a look at this action french really quickly turned to shock as some have ended and i managed to steer the ball into her own net a penalty was then awarded to france after a video review. Fired and the winner so it was a great result for france and that was played in nice in front of a crowd of 35000 very french fans and we also had in the same Group Nigeria and south korea thats right now nigeria they defeated south korea 2 male infant and that was their 1st win of the campaign and then they got off to a dream start when kim. Attempted clearance wrong photo of her own goalkeeper were just going to take a look here to basically get to nigeria to meet in the 29th minute and that was a moment that you will definitely want to forget. But were just not going to hear i mean that is just the kind of nightmare for any footballer and then nigerias. Put the game to bed in the 2nd half to nail the final result there what sort of matches await us later today weve got some big ones today sara now australia need to win after losing their opening game to italy and theyre going to be taking on brazil so that was going to be a great match to watch and then says after. Our taking on china now both teams actually lost their opening games so they really really need to win so theyre going to be fighting hard to pick up their points so i would say soon into both of those games theyre going to be theyre going to be exciting to say the least powerful thank you.
