In berlin this is the day. It will be able to work out if you started on sunday with an on well see if that worsen during the day on monday. Together with my doctor i then told that the symptoms could be a possible covert 19th infection. Present. Considering the symptoms are the medical team decided to use hydroxybutyrate when you purchase a real time hunting taken the test i wouldnt know how to say and it turned out to be positive. Up with you. Also coming up tonight the new security law in hong kong what does it mean for free speech online and what about social Media Companies can they adapt or will they have to pick up and leave why then like it will. Even say. That well as to if we continue to receive funding we have to somehow. Their worst scenario than me may also think to move to. Other countries. And to our viewers on p. B. S. In the United States and all around the world welcome we begin the day with the coronavirus and president ial powers today u. S. President donald trump notified members of congress that he is withdrawing the country from the World Health Organization with the number of new corona virus infections soaring in the u. S. And with hospitals filling up taking the u. S. Out of the w. H. O. May appear self defeating but it is in line with trumps attempts to deflect efforts to blame him for americas Coronavirus Crisis while trump continues to ignore the reality of the pandemic another president no longer has that option today brazilian president diable sonora announced that he has tested positive for the corona virus the 65 year old has symptoms but he told reporters today that he is feeling better thanks to the entitling area drug pushed by President Trump also narrow is known as the trump of south america both leaders have a lot in common theyve downplayed the pandemic and theyve refused to stand behind efforts to stop the virus from spreading the virus however does not recognize executive power or privilege of any time so far trump has avoided infection today he and the world sell 1st hand that the title mr president Means Nothing to the coronavirus. From the very beginning of the outbreak of china. Repeatedly played down the risks of the corona virus and initially described this as an issue flu he also flouted central distancing recommendations and other measures including planning facemasks in public sonata has been tested 3 times previously came back negative however on choose day the preceding and run 3 indeed a confirmed to local media had tested positive for 19. Ill still be a bit of a when i dont it on sunday with a certain feeling of being on well the cult with a monday with newsier tiredness a bit of muscle pain and defeated it reached 38 degrees in the lanes of the new girls i then thought that with the sentiments and with the president ial dr believing it to be a possible curvy 1000 infection i had a c. T. Scan at a Military Hospital here in brasilia my lungs were clear. Brazil is the 2nd worst hit country in the world after the us with more than 65000 deaths and at least 1600000 coronavirus cases. Despite this pass restaurants and other businesses are slowly reopening the people still have doubts and theyre getting as long as we follow the Safety Measures have space between the tables i think its worth reopening but we are the only ones in here but if for instance theres someone on another table i think i would probably feel uncomfortable w. H. O. Has won the pandemic is far from over as its taking its toll around the world participants that have now been moved 11400000 cases of corby of 19 and more than 535000 lives have been lost the outbreak is accelerating. And we have clearly not reached the peak will the pundit make the motown folk in isolation also placed a precinct in prices and also not only a speedy recovery in his own battle against the conference the finest for more on this lets go now to Rio De Janeiro talk to journalists much he is able hes been following this story forced good evening to you might see is does this have any impact on both ability to execute the office of president. But so himself says no and he wants to go on to govern the country from his home by Video Conference so for at the moment its not sure if he would do so really or if rice president. Replace him and bad in the end it depends on the severity of the symptoms of both scenarios so the next days will be turbulent him brazil once he is we know that president will sonars says that he is taking the antimalaria drug that has been pushed by u. S. President donald trump now doctors say that that medication does not work against kobe had 19 so do we know why is also not taking it. Yeah i think he says he Still Believes in this medicine and simply has that he he thinks it can help hes convinced by it instead of the critics by experts a recent study in man hours in the amazon capital of brazil showed that cro kind can. Course heart attacks can of course problems which havent been there before so it is not recommended by experts for all type of patients so for sonora taking it in the end maybe because his role model donald trump all and so promotes this type of medicine we know that there is a growing list of political leaders who have become infected with the coronavirus some have changed their policies about the virus some have not how do you think this will impact the policies of president bush so novel. I think personally that it wont have a huge impact on his policies in future because its an hour is really keen to get a common new economy back on track he needs a Strong Economy in order to be reelected in 2 years and this is main aim to he wants to achieve and on the other hand hes in the middle of a political crisis many ministers stepped back in the last weeks and months so hes still he was a radical in the corona cries and i think i think he will go on like this because he is under pressure. Politically and that means he might not change too much correspondence yes it hurts reporting tonight from Rio De Janeiro in brazil but yes thank you. We are still meat deep in the 1st wave of this if you look at the at the graph from Europe Europe the European Union as an entity it went up and then came down to baseline now theyre having little blips as you might expect as they try to reopen we went up never came down to baseline and now is surging back up so its a serious situation that we have to address immediately. Dr Anthony Fauci there americas top Infectious Disease expert on the worsening pandemic in the United States and now the coronavirus is threatening a new group of people more than a 1000000 International Students in america some schools including Harvard University plan to only offer courses online next semester u. S. Immigration Authorities Say foreign students in rolled at schools with only online courses will not be allowed to stay in the u. S. And could face deportation now this could impact more than a 1000000 students a large share of them coming from china south korea and canada and there has been a lot of reaction on social media to this the economist danny bihari tweeting the trumpet ministration has now decided to deport yes deport thousands of foreign students the most skilled and talented young men and women of the world already in the u. S. And holders of a valid visa if thats not america attempting suicide please explain what is president us Richard Haass president of the u. S. Council on Foreign Relations tweeted this having foreign students on u. S. Campuses is a great way to make none americans proamerican its also a great way to introduce them to our ideals and persuade them to stay or take those ideals home we seem now to be intent on turning them away and turning them against us but some also defending the move Mark Krikorian executive director of the u. S. Center for Immigration Studies tweeted this what would be the point of foreign students being physically in the us if all classes are online unless the real goal is to get a job and or put down roots as part of a scheme to stay permanently. Well to discuss the impact of studying in the u. S. And what todays announcement means to u. S. Power and influence i am joined tonight by dr andreas nik a member of the German Parliament for the conservative c. D. U. Party and also here in berlin professor would call youre an economics professor from the u. S. Who teaches here in germany gentlemen to both of you welcome to the day mr nick let me start with you if you were one of those International Students in the u. S. Not so long ago i mean you studied at Johns Hopkins and Harvard University just to name a few what impact did that have on hugh you are today. Only on me personally but i think for generations of International Students coming to the United States that has deeply shaped their and form their perception of the United States of their ideals. Of american democracy and has been a great element of soft power of the United States around the globe. I find it almost incredible that you deliberately. To hate that is element of power in shaping views and perceptions around the world professor call your let me get your take on this would be you have seen 1st hand what studying in the us can mean for your students right here in berlin havent you tell me about that. Ok for 25 years i taught in the john f. Kennedy institute for north american studies at the university for women and we require our students to go abroad and naturally people would go to canada and the United States and to a student they would come back with a much richer different differentiated view of america what makes America Great where america shares problems just like problems here in europe but it is an understanding. For the United States and i respect a deep respect for its educational institutions they bring that back the other thing to keep in mind the American Students gain enormously they dont have to come and go broad to have close intimate contact with. Students coming from abroad they enrich the campus environment in the United States its hard to imagine the stem a Group ScienceTechnology Engineering studies mathematical studies these are many many foreign students who named help maintain the programs and thats where the long term innovations for the American Economy are to be found out its you cant find a better win win situation than bringing the ambitious talented students to the United States today the head of the council of Foreign RelationsRichard Haass tweeted that forcing foreign students to leave will mark the end of u. S. Soft power id like to get both of your reactions to the fessor call you let me stay with you just a moment i mean do you agree is this america attempting suicide. You know. Many things going to happen one needs a longer term view but this is definitely a step and a major step in the wrong direction it also seems to signal a belief that this is not just a temporary problem the whole idea of online teaching is not to replace face to face long term and change the nature of Higher Education no its an emergency measure chosen very responsibly by the individual universities so in many ways it would almost seem like its a surrender. To the code have epidemic mr nick you know you and i have talked many times on this program about the importance of soft power especially for superpower like the United States do you see americas soft power being eroded here. I think its clearly one more decisive step in giving up the moral leadership and and the soft power that has shaped American Foreign policy and americas wrote in the world for decades and dont forget i think this goes back much stronger to the founding of many of those u. S. Universities. In the early days of the United States if i recall. From germany touring the nazi time who came to us universities including the new school in new york and others. At the bar college who is representing so theres a lot much longer tradition than just people of all the generation here and. Being the worlds university and being credit lee attracting to talent from all over the world has been a key ingredient to soft power and will remain so in the 21st century and i fear it is another element of what richard houses also called the education of the United States as a Global Leader yeah its a very good point its a disturbing point because you cant buy soft power either you either have it or you dont and dream a cynic member of the German Parliament and professor Irwin Collier economics professor here in berlin to both of you gentlemen thank you very much we appreciate you sharing your stories with us tonight thank you. If they get. The new security law in hong kong has created more questions than answers how far will the wall go in curtailing for us no freedoms what we do know is this authorities in the territory have begun combing the citys libraries to find books that may violate the law all the wall which forbids supporting hong kong independence today hong kong chief executive kerry lamb warn people not to break the wall promising harsh consequences but prodemocracy activists fear the consequences are already real w. C. Because reports hes already got for years now everyone has joined fellow members of his hari on the 1st of july to mark hong kongs hanover to tiny screws but everything changed mouse week it isnt uncommon for such a small peaceful protest to have 100 plus police to search a dozen office by cast this movie didnt you know you may never see a picture of me then hong kong is on the street ok not because we are content not because. We are now happy with because it is because now we have to upgrade now right now because we were 7 already behind. The the 1st protest seems to new security will was put in place which can see offenders go to prison for life for suppression. Several parties have now decided to disband some leading activists have fled but everything and his party are not about to follow suit. Because if points to make it a party to pat down now whats it to say for the to do wrestle hong kong psychologically. The most selfless competitive go to place it for a long time were not going to trade what we have been doing for years but depends on day to. For suppression were going to face in the future there will be a certain mortification and transformation activism in hong kong theres no doubt a strong sense of fear also lose hope a supporter of selfcensorship has been the most common reaction just as many prodemocracy restaurants have quickly taken down declarations for political messages leaving empty mammals as a way of silence protests. Beijing is the sister law of fact only a minority of law breakers critics say political activism is under threat and thats just the 1st step in the now works for an n. C. O. Based in hong kong for decades it has been advocating for labor rights across asia hochul has been a popular hub for that also soft local and international n. G. O. S but a new law means many are now we considering the options theres a lot of them banqueting we dont all want do you mean by somehow may be where Foreign Forces because we have stuff from overseas under this law we acquire them sure like how it will impact even the safety or in the window staff or why this stuff cracks for us to see if we continue to receive for funding we have to somehow p. Pair are the worst scenario then we may also consider to move to. Other countries. Beijing has played down the laws in tact saying a 1000000 close to strengthen the management of n. G. O. S and our organizations in hong kong. Even though is still clear how the security law will be implemented activists and efficacious here will have to be where the face a rocky road. Was i was uncertain future it is just about that i want to bring in steve song hes director of the university of londons china is judy joins me tonight from nottingham is just wrong its good to have you on the program let me 1st start by asking you what do you make of gerry lam today threatening harsh consequences for people who violate this new security law. But it is to be expected the new law was introduced to intimidate people in hong kong and therefore it is understandable that the chief executive would be making a Statement Like that in order to intimidate people there do you see this law as part of the process that beijing is now forcing to reclaim hong kong thats going to take us to the end of this period of 2 systems one state. Well one country 2 system opposed to hong kong has effectively been pushed to and the Chinese Government will say as it has already set that it is to strengthen in one country 2 system what they really meant is thats the strengthening of one country 2 systems as the communist party of china understands it and he finds it but thats not the way how people in hong kong would understand it is not the way how any objective and the list would understand what does that mean the mr song for the people in hong kong for those prodemocracy protesters and activists what what would you advise them to do when the situation. Well what they should do is really a matter for dams to decide to do and its not greedy for an outsider like myself to tell them what to do what the Chinese Government has done and east essentially east to criminal minds effectively all the major of protests actions that were being taken by people in hong kong who went out to protest in this some of year. And it includes in fact not only the action tast it also includes anybody who should give any 2 nations to eat protesters. For that matter any parents who go out to pick up a youngster who had been on a protest movement somewhere in hong kong they are now illegal we know that china strongly resent what it says is foreign interference in its Domestic Affairs and with that in mind and with knowing how important china is and remains as a trading partner. Can the International Community can it bring pressure to bear upon beijing when it comes to hong kong. Well that depends on whether the International Community in leading has to winch to do so we are looking at. The e. U. Working to get there with the u. K. And the 5 countries and i think that is going to be a lot of pressure on the Chinese Government and hong kong but you cannot walk to geta and the Chinese Government will be able to buy and move which is stunned that modus operandi but this must come at the best time then for beijing when it looks at europe and it sees brechts it taking place the u. K. And the European Union are going separate ways theyre not coming together this is exactly what china wants is an. I think youre absolutely right to be fair the Chinese Government had clearly he signed it that they would be doing something along the light of what theyre doing now by no one but last year well people call it 19 and became a and issue but which 19 bringing countries in europe and dignity in the United States to his needy and dependent on china will keep us from their perspective to tommy is now absolutely perfect to push a very very hot mind on hong kong mr steve song director of the university of oregon is trying to institute joining us tonight for not a good reason we appreciate your time and your insights tonight very valuable thank you thank you daisy to sion is show us so us ok thanks duly noted.
