Is the king and royal family marking this minute of silence. A solemn moment there in spain paying tribute to the more than 27000 victims who died in the country from the coronavirus. And here is the Spanish Parliament also taking part in this minute of silence. You know we are seeing people around the country taking part in the ceremony. The. And. I mean again this is at the beginning of a 10 day mourning period that the government has declared there in spain 1000 honor the 27000 people died from carpet 1000 and i reporter young Philip Schultz is in spain there witnessing this ceremony what is this moment what is this meant to spain and how is a country trying to look ahead to. Spain as the traumatized country at the moment as the pictures of overcrowded hospitals of haitians begging for a still very fresh in the collective memory of the people and my impression is that it will still take a very long time for those wounds to heal. And i think 2 things make it worse at the moment. Spain is a very divided country when it comes to politics their right to be a physician is strongly criticizing the management of the crisis by the left wing government and the Economic Predictions like getting worse and worse every day several millions of spaniards have already lost their jobs so the big hope at the moment is that there will still be some kind of. Some. Very rich and very big economic factor for the country but this is not sure yet this will let you take place this year. We see people clapping there as part of the ceremony flags and public buildings around the country flying at half mast we saw a little bit earlier king said leave a presiding over the ceremony that minute of silence in spain and our reporter just by talking to their young Philip Schultz thank you young philip as spain honors the victims 27000 victims of coping 90. 3 are we going to move on to some other news now in Hong Kong Police have fired pepper pellets at crowds of proto crecy protesters and made more than 200 arrests in the city center riot police surrounded the Legislature Building in anticipation of protests the territorys prodemocracy demonstrators want to voice their opposition to a bill criminalizing disrespect for chinas National Anthem which lawmakers are currently debating. Right lets get an update on the story now we can speak to tom grundy editor in chief of Hong Kong Free press tom thanks for joining us you are currently on the streets where protests as we understand have been escalating give us an idea of whats been happening. Well ahead of us tense standoff at the moment in montauk were up to about 240 arrests some of them children in uniform weve seen pepper balls have to spray been fired by police we understand 3500 offices the quoit in this huge security operation today with alleged surrounded by walls of barriers and now it seems we may be descending as we have throughout the day in some sort of. Situation between the protesters and the police as monk called the shopping districts of polls a day and the central districts Central Business district became sort of giant. Of the police and protesters giving chase but a lot so arrests today with them being loaded on to at least vans tom we understand that protesters today are protesting against this National Anthem law and we dont do know that other countries also criminalize desecrating the flag or the National Anthem so why are they out protesting this law today. Well the difference is in hong kong if this law is passed as it most certainly well people could face prison or 3 years or a large fine of mocking the insulting or parodying the National Anthem but this comes in tandem with the National Security law as well which many here will be an affront to Civil Liberties and freedoms and freedom of speech so that certain people on the streets because that will be inserted directly into hong kongs many constitution just in the next few months without any legislative oversight tom we see the police there just lined up right behind you and president xi jinping said chinas going to be stepping up its military preparedness so if these protests continue to ask to turn violent what kind of pushback you think we might see from beijing. Well the o. The local Army Garrison chief has also made a similar threats we do hear these things about you know the military in hong kong but the idea of this National Lead just National Security legislation is that it will empower hong kong itself as well as the National Security services you could end up being faced. To prosecute people for succession sedition and suppression unfortunately we dont have clear answers as to how exactly they may that may affect the Civil Liberties freedoms and core values that we used to in hong kong as a semi autonomous region and tom weve been speaking to protesters i mean what are they saying in terms of what they expect from International Support well weve seen some support i suppose from donald trump and he said it will make a strong statement next week also trying when taiwan but just around the corner here ive seen people appealing both overseas countries to intervene but this is one of the things that may become outlawed just in a few months along with our mocking the National Maybe even calling for an end to one party rule or chief executive to step down thats a big thing about this law we dont know what it will in sale and seeing how these laws are rolled out in the mainland there is concern that we may never know the exact definition of what is allowed and what is not because its often purposefully applied in a very vague and broad manner all right tom grandy editor in chief conferee press reporting there on the streets content you so much thank you. I lets take a look now at some other stories making news around the world protesters have taken to the streets in the u. S. State of minnesota after a black man died while being detained by police the death of george floyd has drawn outrage after a video showed a white officer kneeling on his neck as he cried out that he could not reach.

H. O. Suspended its trial of the drug citing safety concerns. Youre watching the news still to come on our show the job nobody wants to do how one venezuelan migrant ended up picking up the bodies of the code 1000 dead in peru. But 1st the European Union is also dealing with the coronavirus later today Commission President was about fondling will present a master plan worth hundreds of billions our viewer owes for the e. U. To bounce back from the recession triggered by the virus that includes a 500000000000 euro Fund Proposed by germany and france based on common debt at the same time from the line well introduce a proposal for the blocks 7 year budget plan and lets bring in our correspondent in brussels bob levey zillah standing by for us hi barbara good to see you so this is a giant revival deal that was enough on the line its going to be presenting what more details do we have on this plan. What she fought once for corona recovery is the sum of 750000000000. 00 euros thats even a bit less than was expected and that is to come in 2 parts the 500000000000. 00 you mentioned they are supposed to be given away as grants to the most affected countries and then theres going to be in another segment of 250000000000. 00 which is supposed to be given as loans money that has to be paid back bought the interesting part of course is going to be the detail in this now who is going to get the biggest part of the money is if this is calculated according to the fall in g. D. P. It might be italy and france that get sort of the theyre the biggest lump sum if the european the Eastern European countries want to be included of course you would have to probably calculated on the bases off Edition Figures of rising unemployment so there is a huge political battle looming because the what the Eastern European country scene now is under their very eyes they become from net recipients of e. U. Funds maybe 2 net contributors poland for instance has seen the coach relations and theyre already jumping up and down and also so this is not yet a done deal of course and it is going to be a very big political fight to to get there and to get agreement of all the 27 Member States obara germany will be taking over the e. U. Councils rotating presidency in a little over a month from now i want to talk to you about that in a moment but 1st lets take a look at what that will mean. The cover in a crisis struck in the midst of merkels preparations for germanys e. U. Presidency suddenly forcing her to focus on what shes most known for crisis management. In my view europe the European Union is currently facing its biggest challenge since it was founded. It europe was already divided before corona struck until 3 months ago the commissions green deal on Climate Change and finalizing the next budget along with bracks it looked like the hardest issues to overcome this year now machall still infamous in europe Southern States over her handling of the euro and financial crises may face her biggest challenge yet. She will have to pull europe back from the kind of nation state thinking that kicked in as the initial reflex when the corona crisis struck here being europes longest serving leader who heads its largest economy could help. Machall has already started pledging german money for the 1st time accepting joint e. U. Debt as part of a joint 500000000000 euro Recovery Plan with french president mccall she may drop more red lines see you our goal is to see europe emerge from this crisis closer and stronger than before heres a comment whether im going to merkel can push europe to take a leap of faith into the future may prove decisive for the stability of the e. U. It will certainly be decisive for her entry into the history books. So barbara in the midst of this pandemic a lot of responsibility falling on germany in the next 6 months. It is all going to fall squarely on americas shoulders remember when she was sort of called the leader of the free world now this time around the next 5 years shes going to have to show that she truly can be the leader of the European Union the queen of europe more less and her reputation might be rising rapidly in the south of europe where she was really sort of called bad names during the financial crisis because it all is now turning around everything is shifting the whole focus of the use going to turn towards the south the Eastern European countries will have to share and will have to sort of lose their prime position when it comes to e. U. Funds she will have to somehow moderate that fight and that battle because its going to be the mother of all political battles if its about the money old friendship ends usually in the European Union and so she will have to figure out and hammer out those compromises she will have to convince the frugal for for instance the countries like austria and the netherlands denmark and sweden who dont want to spend so much money who dont want to give grants that this is in their interest and i think this is going to be her main argument for a sort of coming up was this money and for allowing those huge sums to be spent it is in your interests its not a national thing it is for the whole European Union for all of us our correspondent robert faisal there in brussels thank you so much. International donors have pledged over 3000000000 euros to support refugees and migrants from venezuela as the coronavirus pandemic worsens their plight more than 5000000 venezuelans have fled the economic chaos under president Nicolas Maduro heres the story of one of those exiles. Its a job no one else wants to do grueling dangerous work recovering bodies of covert 9000 victims. Used to work as an electrician in his native venezuela before he migrated to peru 2 years ago to escape the dire economic crisis back home in his new job he and his fellow workers from the funeral home collect as many as 10 bodies a day more than 400 since march. Here they are picking up the body of a man who committed suicide because he couldnt get treatment after testing positive for the virus to one always worries the dangerous work yes to do might end up harming his family before returning home he always showers and wash this is closed with disinfectant sometimes he gargles with salt water. Always afraid afraid to infect my family when i go back home to my children but its something that has to be faced and i have to continue working to put food on the table. Peru has over 108000 confirmed covered 9000 cases and over 3000 deaths the 2nd hardest hit country in latin america after brazil the current lockdown conditions are making it even harder for the estimated 850000 and then as well when migrants in peru to make ends meet has to keep working and hoping theyll stay healthy for his family including his elderly parents who remained in venezuela. The u. S. Is launching a fresh bid for dominance in space the nations 1st privately built rocket will take off from home soil with u. S. Astronauts on board since it stopped its own launches in 2011 the u. S. Has relied on russia for hitching rides into space that is something president Trumps Administration is eager to change. If all goes to plan it will be the dawning of a new era in space travel that the launch of the full knaan rocket with its man dragon capsule will end americas dependence on russia for access to space the joint operation between nasa and space x. Led by the pay pal and tesla founder even musk should open up much cheaper space travel. You would have never thought you know after we landed atlantis back in 2011 that you know 9 years later we would be where we are in some ways and its. Better than i would have imagined in so many of. The Space Shuttles used in the past were enormous complex and massively expensive every flight swallowed up half a 1000000000. 00 with space x. The cost should be somewhere between 60. 00 and 90000000. 00 the dragon capsule is much smaller than a Space Shuttle and the interior is more sophisticated than this tesla car sent up a dummy cargo joining an earlier test. A successful launch could give space x. A head start in commercial space and travel tourism its rival the boeing starliner end of a test flight early because of a Software Problem space x. s crew being careful not to raise expectations there are just so many technical factors and things that we need to focus on to make sure that we pull this off our place and history or you know even trying to put our names in the same sentences as the folks who have come before us. It seems premature until until we until weve pulled it off and. If there are problems with the launch rocket the capsule can detach itself and make an Emergency Landing extensive testing has so far yielded positive results. The only negative results have been the astronauts tests for covert 19. Theres always issues space is hard obviously but we want to hit all the hit all the boxes do everything we need to do to demonstrate that this vehicle is capable of taking ash knights up from u. S. Soil. As often as nasa will allow us to do so. After a 19 hour flight the astronauts will stay in orbit for a month to back up the International Space station hopes for a new era in space travel will be riding with them. Sports now in the biggest game in any season dortmund against you know with other major leagues still on hold because of the pandemic sports fans around the world tuned in to watch as dortmund took on biron needing a win to keep their season alive but it wasnt to be iron held their nerve to take home the way. The biggest game of the season had arrived at the best fallen study by and munich took on the closest challenges for the title in a stadium that would usually be rocking but was instead empty. The match kicked into top gear in the very 1st minute a mix up in the by and defense handed Erling Holland a chance to score passing the norwegian striker beat manuel neuer only for jerome bowen saying to clear off the lie. By i responded to that wake up call at the other end says cannot very well just as close to cash peace check the man in the right place at the right time. It would take Something Special to break the deadlock and yes you like to make provided exactly that. At breathtaking chip from the midfielder outfoxed dortmund keeper roman burkey who got a hand to the shots but couldnt keep it out of. A disappointing end to the half for him and dortmund who brought on jade and son joe in search of inspiration but it was holland who went close next with an effort the flush wide replays showed the shot deflected off by the tanks that are no penalty was given and dawkins hunt for an equaliser continues not many decades tested noir but there was a sense it wasnt to be that day robert levy almost settled the time when he slammed a shot against the post. By an inches away from securing a massive win the nerves of the Club Officials present what jangling. But not for much longer when the referee belief a full time it was clear that both teams knew how decisive this result could be. To be realistic by a 7 points ahead as long as nothing goes wrong theyll bring the title higher all the bringer it was a match that came down to the finest of margins. But the outcome is that 10 days after it restarted the bundesliga title race is all but. Alema docky for doping sports is with us lima did this game live up to the hype theres a lot of intensity and you know even photos because there were no fans it was an empty stadium and as the scoreline also showed it was a very very tight match and chances will fall in few but both sides have them but that moment of genius came from by in munich and you have to see this i mean the difference maker was yahshua kimmie with this clever chip and if you can see that i know we have it there. And the timing on that was just perfect and if you look closely enough it seems as if he was anticipating come back to happen and then youre probably asking yourself exactly what was he anticipating probably to happen well. It turns out that after the match the guy in play is revealed that they were told that dont want to keep woman durkee that has a tendency to step away step off his line just like a few feet wide set right in front of it and that a piece of information i guess you could argue was the difference maker decided this match right and byron once so does this mean the race for the title is over. You know its as good as over i hate saying bad but it is you know what it is i dont think anybody expected it to be so all those will soon bite after the restart but by on right now i mean with 6 games to go they have a 7 point lead and i know the saying you know you never know with football. But when was the last time that by and unique you know when they had a 7 point lead you know in the title race so and at the end i also think theyre way too disciplined way too experience and way too motivated to screw this up i think something really awful a terrible terrible house to happen but you know what do you think is the bigger takeaway here is that the buyer and one or the dortmund fell short again thats a very its a tricky question i would say based on this season i. Would go with by and winning again and i say that because lets not forget by and nick at the start of the season they struggled they were not at the top of the table they had a coaching change so for me the big story here is about hundreds if they being able to turn by and name munich into a winning machine again but of course if you take a look at you know an extended period of time then it is about mourned falling short again because last season they blew what was it around a 7 point lead this season another missed opportunity and the last time anyone other than by and nick that won the bonus we got title was back in 2012 and that was dortmund klopp that was a very long time ago and i think that doesnt reflect who positively on the leak it shows that they have you know a compare competitive problem but the conclusion that i would make out of this is that the title race was unpredictable but the outcome as usual always predictable and thats by on winning we were talking from data every so forth thank you very much.
