Assange hangs in the balance as a london Court Decides whether the wiki leaks founder should be extradited to the United States he faces as you know its charges that could put him in prison for life. Im sorry kelly welcome to the program u. S. President donald trump has arrived in india for a 2 day visit the president and the 1st lady malani landed in a medal the largest sitting in indian Prime MinisterNarendra Modis home state of gujarat tens of thousands lined up to welcome maam trumps 2 day visit aims to build on last years meeting between the 2 leaders and to deepen ties between the u. S. And india which have been strained by a trade dispute trump and modi have been addressing a rally of 100000 people in the motera city. The Worlds LargestCricket Ground just keeping president that. Up but do you want to give the presence of President Trump here with his family and parts a new sweetness and closeness of family ties to the relations between india and the United States india or you had said relations oh. I dont know young. Jeff underfunded of the. A. D. D. You upon a good data and closer to religion. Its got to come down to the Everybody Loves him but i will tell you this hes very tough. Oh today Prime Minister modi is the tremendously successful leader of this vast indian republic. Last year more than 600000000. 00 people went to the polls and gave him a landslide victory like no other in the largest democratic election ever held 1 anywhere on the face of the earth lets get more now you have the latest from. Wall who is in delhi so why is india pulling out all of the stops for the american president today. No it wasnt the millions president was expecting but 100000 or more people did and out to the road show as well as the money they trump event and india did promise this to the president repeatedly now it is interesting that this is something the optics of this big show is something that actually benefits both of you does on the one hand they have precedent trump who is up for reelection ready so when the president ial elections in the u. S. Are this november and this is seen as an effort to appeal to the Indian American would be specially the good themed in American Water because the people from this state have many connections to Indian Americans in the u. S. And why Indian Americans largely were democrat this is seen by amnesty as an effort by President Trump to appeal to that water base on the other hand we have Prime Minister more of the one also had a similar how the how the more you went a few months ago in the u. S. And this is seen as annoyed by the u. S. For Prime Minister more the added i am going hes been criticized heavily for the indian governments moves in the shmita as well as the protests that they have seized oh i dont want a new citizenship law that has that came out a few months ago so this is also an exercise in good optics for Prime Minister more because of this is probably why this massive event is what is kicking off this was that both of those leaders we see them taking advantage of those opportunities but we know the bilateral ties are also at the center of these talks what is the seat of u. S. India relations right now. Well definitely side of the trade deal was actually supposed to be the highlight of this was that and has been in the making for months now however well it looks more and more unlikely that a major announcement will be made before his departure for india a precedent trump said that he would like for the street deal to come through before the president ial elections but it is probably not going to happen now this was something that was brought up in the rally as well india is upset with the u. S. For removing its trade status of preferential trade status last year and the u. S. Calls india the king of to address however there is cooperation expected on the defense front President Trump referred to this in the rally going to morrow we are expecting an announcement of a 3000000000 dollar tree. 1000000000 dollar defense deal between india and the u. S. The u. S. Of course views india as an important counter with china so theres a geopolitical and want to also do u. S. And debt is being strong what else is on the u. S. President s agenda. But precedent trump will be going to abra this evening to visit the large met her and this evening and syrupy would also be traveling to delhi and tomorrow is actually the main part of this bilateral because of this world and 36 our visit tomorrow he will be given a president ial vote of them at the ballot in delhi he will also watch and those of the gandhi memory but the really important aspect of it is by a lapse of trade and and that really that i expected to morrow in the uk normally later in the evening there could be a ceremonial dinner and their president will be heading back to the u. S. Mr joyce well with more on the u. S. President s a busy visit to india i think you can be sure. Now to the latest on the corona virus in china the outbreak has prompted the National Peoples congress to postpone its annual 10 day meeting for the 1st time in decades it comes after chinese authorities reported 150 deaths from corona virus in a single day pushing the total number of fatalities in the country to almost 2600. 00 south korea meanwhile has raised its Infectious Disease alert to the highest level after more than 162 cases were the 4 that on monday and authorities in italy are reporting a 4th death from the virus making italy the worst affected country in europe and midnight on the italian austrian Border Police and the army are deployed to guard a train with a potentially deadly cargo operators stop the service amid fears that 2 of its passengers were carrying the corona virus only once tests came back negative or services resumed.

That are sort of you know the actual the by inviting people to stay it on in addition to closing places where crowds congregate. But were trying to ensure containment of this phenomenon stuff you know authorities wasted little time that they were doing we had to leave in a hurry. Cultural hub closed their doors from the opera house. They told us it was suspended for the next few days to the sun cyril football stadium for top flight football matches where possible and Milan Fashion Week also fell victim on money closed its runway show to the crowds.

Have you to do one as a very small village right on the border to the red zone just across the street theres a road block a done by the caribbean year the Italian Criminal Police they dont let anybody go to further on this road because theyre behind the roadblock are these 10 villages you mentioned in the middle of it is called the a. P. Center of this outbreak and most of the cases of the 212 cases that are now confirmed in this area and you know on the other side of the border to the red zone it is very quiet also even quieter than usual as some find us on the fields about although the schools are closed all public buildings are close and the people i talked to here in the villages tell me its just waiting and they dont know actually what to vade for because nobody knows how long this situation will go on they have allowed to go to the pharmacy which is on the other side. Of the border and they also allowed to go to the supermarket visions also on the other side but if you go there you have to wear a mosque as a precautious measure how great is the fear of the virus among italians there. Its a mixed sentiment i would say is some of the people say they are very very that the virus will come and also get some of their families but others say this is the last the overdone 200 cases in the population of 60000000 is maybe not the sole many and many people are also confident that now the patient 0 has been found a man from could own who allegedly infected many of the known cases in the hospital and now the italian authorities authorities are doing everything to break this infection chain to find the people who had contact with that man and so many people here think the. This is overdone to close the opening was indeed i know it took to even to say the kind of a cannot take place in bed is because this is far away from here do they also feel that its overdone to close the borders because theres a proposal to do that on the table right now. But there was an attempt by the austrians yesterday night to close the border for trains at least so far only the far right leg i know its year in italy says we have to close all the borders to franz and also to slovenia but this is a measure of the bridges here in this Little Village nobodys talking about because the border is a very far away and people that just caring about their own immediate future and then neighborhood they just want not they dont want the voters to come to their village and they dont want to be included in the red zone down to regard to correspondent just outside of the lockdown zone there in northern italy thank you lets get a quick check of some other stories making news around the world in a surprise move Prime Minister my to mohammad has resigned from malaysia at 94 the worlds oldest Prime Minister though made up be out of office for a long there are rumors that he may form a new coalition government.

A British Court has begin a hearing on whether the wiki leaks founder Julian Assange should be extradited to the United States where he faces espionage charges relating to Intelligence Leaks supporters of his songs have been gathering outside of the london courts they are concerned that in the silence conviction in the United States would make it easier for prosecutors to target journalists who use sources inside of the government a song which would face the rest of his life in prison if found guilty. You know if you correspondent there to mass is covering the assad extradition hearing for us at the court in london so what is going to happen in this hearing today. Well this is the start of a ricoh of hearings is the legal arguments that the lower years of bringing forward for both sides then there is a lengthy delay its going to continue in may and theres going to be more weeks of the actual trial however lois is saying that this is likely to be a very very lengthy protest so whichever side is going to lose a slightly to go to appeal so Julian Assange says leave it to you are actually expecting this to last several years why is this songe such an important and controversial figure. Well here i am in front of the crown court which is near the high security prison where he is being held you can see many supporters there trying to get into the building and outside outside the gates there are people with placards chanting free julian or sounds for many years really a hero of press freedom of freedom of expression and they say that this is a political trial there wherever he went basically here in the u. K. He was outside here inside the Ecuadorian Embassy and outside you always had supporters so many of of his supporters a really very very fierce in the defense for him for them he is a hero then again there are others his critics was saying that he has published without the necessary journalistic guidelines the tauriel scrutiny so really. A very polarizing figure we have heard that some background on his life and work lets have a look. These are the images that made whistle blowing website wiki leaks a household name i am in 2010 it published classified u. S. Army material implicating the Us Government and possible war crimes i am weve made julian a song a brave defender of the truth to some rules and an enemy of the state to others. More controversy followed over a later mass leak of diplomatic cables and the 2016 publication of leaked emails from Hillary Clintons president ial campaign. In 2012 songs be counted a 7 year stretch holed up at the Ecuadorian Embassy in london trying to clear his name last week and so to extradite him on rape charges. Sweden dropped the case last year so. Too much time had passed but the prosecutor still says the accusation was credible so the un special rapporteur on torture told d. W. They were trumped up charges he said they were designed to ward off potential whistleblowers from quote erring governments dutchy laundry. In paris a song just father was ambivalent about his sons chances under the british justice system. If if it follows the trajectory of the treatment of julian of 10 years it will be a show trial but. The team of lawyers is so forceful and competent that im sure the crown prosecutor here 30 will see the error of they were just. Ahead of todays Court HearingJulian Assange has been held in a london mike the man security jail and supporters fear he could face a lot longer behind bars if extradited to the u. S. He may spend the rest of his life in prison and back to barrett now at the court in london as weve heard there bear get a key issue for the supporters as if this hearing will indeed be fair why is that. Well you have already alluded to it in the piece fearing that this is a political trial really there full to being questions over allegations that were reported in the australian media that julian the psalms and his interaction with this lawyer inside the Ecuadorian Embassy were being recorded and that the material was handed to Us Intelligence so even more than the u. K. Legal system its about eventually trial if he was extradited that could happen in the us in the us and julian a phone as. Ive actually said that this could be part of President Trumps war on john alyssum so very strong allegations here at mass in london thank you bigot. Here in germany the center left social democrats have won sundays election in the city state of hamburg with 39 percent of the vote the victory marks a turnaround for the party its support has fallen sharply in other recent state elections hamburgs voters punish chancellor Angela Merkels christian democrats they received just 11 percent of the ballot. God was with was finally a result to celebrate for germanys ailing social democrats after a run of election losses the s. P. D. Were the clear winners in homburg on sunday nationalised bt leaders welcome to turnaround was. Pushed out of this case the s. P. D. I think is the right kind of politics and i think its the kind of politics that suits the whole thats been a its been the past. But for chancellor Angela Merkels christian democrats its the worst state election result in almost 70 years. This is the to lattakia its a bitter day for the c. D. U. In germany its an historically bad election result for the c. D. U. In hamburg and theres no way to put a gloss on that with homburg screams doubled their vote was they are hoping to be the main challenger to chancellor merkel c. D. U. In federal elections next year just yet as additional. We see we really have an extremely challenging situation for democracy in germany and the c. D. U. A say preoccupied with itself says it can essentially be ruled out as a party of government like a student always was i was a green supporters chanted nazis are twin it looked like cumber voters had kicked out the far right alternative for germany but as more results came in the f. T. Moved above the 5 percent threshold needed to make it into the state parliament as now we have a governing c. D. U. Meeting in berlin to discuss the hamburg results we have our chief Political Editor mahela kushner standing by at the c. D. U. Headquarters mahela welcome to you as weve heard these are the worst results for merkel c. D. U. In 70 years in state elections why did the christian democrats perform so badly. Well because they are already in the midst of a crisis over what means being conservative these days and who will in the end succeed and america for real both as party leader and as a potential next candidate for chance because the Succession Plan clearly didnt work out those results in hamburg come at a time as this Big Tent Party the most important Political Party one could say at the moment here in germany is in a leadership crisis and behind closed doors here in the Party Headquarters right now theres talk about a special Party Conference where we can expect to see a showdown between he contenders who want to follow and im going to machall footsteps so what do you think i mean beyond that beyond the congress what do you think the tone of the conversation is and the specifics on being discussed today regarding the future leadership of the party. Well basically the party is pretty much stuck you have some key fit figures like the former adversary from years back wanting to take the pole position but not coming out into that position officially and its still a long way to go to keep this coalition of are going to machall together until the next scheduled general elections in autumn 2021 more question marks that answer at the moment here at the Party Headquarters both about the process and who might actually want to step in at such an early point in time because they might have to ride out this political storm the conservative c. D. U. Is in right now chief Political Editor michel the kfar thank you. Revelers are taking to the streets around the world to celebrate carnival traditionally a time when costumes and floats poke fun at the politics and celebrities of the day but in the belgian. City of a last carnival has been overshadowed by charges of anti semitism critics accuse participants of using racist stereotypes and thats prompted unesco to take this carnival off of its list of Cultural Heritage of. The carnival is the time of the here when youre allowed to make fun of everything that small but. Like here in the western belgian town on. Their belgian royal family. Or breaks it. Nobody is sued for mockery. But many say the alex carnival has breached the standards of good taste play allowing participants to show racist 2 types this is the. Last year this float sparked outrage Orthodox Jews standing on bags of money this century will parade through International Criticism for that display. Of unesco withdrew the carnival from its Cultural Heritage thats. Despite the rebuke a handful of groups again chose to depict antisemitic stereotypes this year such as Orthodox Jews with insect bodies. For these men who dressed up big girls and no one says. It was a problem its all about making fun of i did everybody so its not me she told course we are laughing with everybody we are laughing with our kingdom we are laughing with the mexicans were laughing with rome we are laughing with the koreans. Nobody cares nobody else will smile and that is what this is about. Most here at the parade would agree. This man hunt is a member of the Jewish Community in antwerp and lost many members of his family during the holocaust he says. People depicting jews at the parade last year were ignorant so maybe could be given the benefit of the doubt but this year its different they should know better you know by portraying jews the way you do your thing. Is because this is the way that made it possible that 6000000 jews were guest. During the 2nd world war we settled those images that. Critics called for this years parade to be canceled but the mayor of old tells us that its not up to him to decide what people can or cannot laugh about he also says there is no antisemitism in his city there was a better good news this in because im one of the few mayors in this country who organized a minute of silence in the city council for the 75th commemoration of the holocaust that was a very impressive moment with all Political Parties so all its really is aware of the jewish concerns and sensitivities. Into a greater moment because for many here in all this the mayor is a hero for defending what they say is their freedom to laugh about whatever they want no matter the consequences be it is.
