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 families on the fields about all the schools are closed all public buildings are close and the people i talked to here in the middest tell me its just waiting and they dont know actually what to vade for because nobody knows how long this situation but they 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 which is 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 that some of the people say they are very very divided to come and get some of their families but others say this is the last the overdone 200 cases in a population of 60000000 is maybe not the sole many and many people also confident that now the patient 0 has been found a man from could who allegedly infected many of the known cases in the hospital and now they tell you know 1st seized 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.

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 this 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 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 zones down to regard to correspondent just outside of the lockdown zone there in northern italy thank you. U. S. President donald trump is in india for a 2 day visit the president and 1st lady malani out landed in amenable od the largest city an indian Prime Minister Narendra Modis home state of gujarat tens of thousands lined up in welcome tops 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 at the motera stadium the Worlds Largest cricket grounds have a list must be being credited in that round up but why do you want to give that you know the presence of President Trump here with his family m. Parts and use weakness on closeness of family ties to the relations between india and the United States in india where they are to turn. Out of their own now to. Jeff im. Under the. E. D. T. You have to dig down. Deep. East conduct im gonna have Everybody Loves him but i will tell you this hes very tough. Or are out today Prime Minister modi is the tremendously successful leader of this vast indian republic. Last year more than 600000000 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 ahead lets get more now were joined by correspondent he should fall in delhi he said why is india pulling out all the stops for the american president today. Well it isnt quite the millions president from was expected but still hundreds of thousands of people did out on the streets of amman the bar as well as of the more devastated him to welcome President Trump and his family and if we focus on the events today as specifically we see that President Trump was perhaps going to replicate the how do you more the event that took place in texas a few months ago he was there for that as well and was very impressed and this is something that could prove to be beneficial for preston from because analysts believe that he is trying to appeal to the Indian American voter base which is largely woods democrat theres a sizable good iraqi population within and in americans and the president ial elections in the u. S. Is coming up next but of course the optics are also positive for india and the indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has faced criticism because of his governments moves about revoking the special status in fresh meat as well as a controversial citizenship law which has drawn protests for weeks across the country so even though the treaty deal that was supposed to be the highlight of this meeting may not quite come through the way india thought the optics of this are definitely good for both sides bilateral ties we also know at the center of talks what is the state of us into your allusions right now. Well as i mentioned sour the Bilateral Agreement a massive trade deal was in the offing it has been in the works for months now but shortly before his departure for india president drum did say that he does not expect the deal to come through quite as quickly he is hoping that it does happen before the elections and this is reflecting what exactly india and the u. S. Are feeling about each other very now that has been tension india is upset that the u. S. Should walk a preferential trade status last year for india and the u. S. Has called india the king of to address however a defense deal with me still come through this is something which the u. S. President hinted at at the rally today a defense due to the amount of 3000000000. 00 with the with the indian navy and the really be hearing more about this tomorrow which is going to be the meat of this bilateral was that when trump visits delhi and spends his time in talks with the indian contingent tell us a little bit more about what else is on the u. S. President s agenda. Well this evening preston trump will be at the visiting of the wonder of the world and you will be traveling to delhi later and tomorrow is actually as i mentioned the main part of this visit to morrow morning he will be going to the president ial palace and in jail where he will be in delhi where he will receive a ceremonial welcome he also was a god given water but then we come to the sizable part of the afternoon where there will be created room and hopefully as well as the defense announcements and that is going to be where we will find out exactly what india and u. S. Have managed to iron out late in the evening a sudden one a. Dinner as expected and then the president would be heading back to the states and we should just well thank you. Lets get a quick check of some other stories making news around the world in a surprise move malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad has resigned but at 94 the worlds oldest Prime Minister may not be out of office for long there are rumors that he may form a new coalition government. Police demonstrating for better working conditions in haiti have opened fire at the Army Headquarters the Defense Ministry on the caribbean island reported that at least one serviceman was killed and at least 3 Police Officers wounded when soldiers returned fire. A British Court has begun hearings into whether the wiki leaks founder Julian Assange should be extradited to the United States where he faces espionage charges for leading to Intelligence Leaks supporters of a staunch gathered outside of london court they are concerned that in a song conviction in the u. S. Would make it easier for prosecutors to target journalists who use sources inside of the government. Correspondent there get masses covering the assad extradition hearing for us at the court in london so arrogant lawyers there representing the u. S. Have been presenting reasons why the Julian Assange should be extradited tell us more. Well those lawyers have said Julian Assange has assisted members of the u. S. Army to steal classified documents and that he has endangered human sources so basically that he has endangered activists people that were working with the u. S. Army for example informing them on the activities of the taliban and of al qaida that he has put 150 of these people at risk and they say its not about poor publicizing alleged war crimes but its really about the specific allegations so they have also said that it is not about this huge long jail sentence that would await Julian Assange if you was convicted in the u. S. Not like have 175 years but more like 42. 00 over 48 months so this is what they have set out so far theyre going to be more speaks specific in the course of the day how will his defense team likely respond to the u. S. Case. I would think they would. Reiterate what they have said so far that Julian Assange had rejected material that he had protected sources and that he has not put any one address. They would also probably say that this if julie the sonship will be extradited to the u. S. That he will become part of what they say is Donald Trumps war on journalism so they have in the past been very very strong in their allegations particularly against the u. S. Justice system against President Trump and itll be interesting to see whether they repeat this today in the courts. Ok i have friends had some background on Julian Assange and she has been a very polarizing figure privette some background on his life and work so lets have a look at that. These are the images that made whistle blowing website wiki leaks a household name. In 2010 published classified u. S. Army material implicating the Us Government and possible war crimes. It may 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 a 7 year stretch holed up at the Ecuadorian Embassy in london trying to clear his name last week to extradite him on rape charges. Sweden dropped the case last year saying too much time had passed but the prosecutor still says the accusation was credible. 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 government study 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 incompetent that im sure the crown prosecuting authority will see the error of they were just. Ahead of todays Court Hearing Julian Assange has been held in a london mikes m m 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 be or get now outside of the court in london what is the atmosphere there. Well. There were really chaotic scenes a lot of protesters supporters of Julian Assange were trying to cram into the courtroom here in southeast london also really the worlds media as many as possible were trying to get in and its now full so nobody can get seen anymore but we still have a lot of the supporters of juanita songe outside just outside the gates the very lively their song to sing i love julian we love joy in the songs they want him freed they say that hes a hero a prisoner of conscience and that he should not be tried he should be free and he should not be extradited to the u. S. They are going to mass in london thank you. 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 a lesson percent of the ballot.

Were the clear winners in homburg on sunday nationalised bt leaders welcome to turn around. And push and i hope this gives the s. P. D. A push i think its the right kind of politics and i think its the kind of politics that suits the whole this meeting has been the past.

Received we really have an extremely challenging situation for democracy in germany and the c. D. U. A say preoccupied with south city can essentially be ruled out as a policy of government like a scheme dollars was gave was a green supporters chanted nazis 20 it looked like voters had kicked out the far right alternative for germany but as more results came in the if team moved above the 5 percent threshold needed to make it into the state parliament which as now we have the governing c. D. U. Meeting in berlin to discuss the hamburg results we have our chief Political Editor 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 and fail actions 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 of america for real both as party leader and as potential next candidate for chance because so Succession Plan clearly didnt work out those results in hamburg come at a time as this big 10 party the most important Political Party one could say at the moment here in germany is in the 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 key contenders who want to follow in angle americal footsteps so what do you think i mean beyond that beyond that congress what do you think the tone of the conversation is and the specifics being discussed today regarding the future leadership of the party. Well basically the party is pretty much stuck you have some key figure figures like the former adversary from years back wanting to take the pole position but not coming out into that position officially and its a long way to go to keep this coalition of anger machall together until the next scheduled general elections in autumn 2021 more question marks than answers 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.
