A 1500000000. 00. As protests demanding his resignation at home into a 6th week and European Union leaders calling for a level Playing Field in trade with china during talks with president xi jinping e. U. Leaders today push for more access to Chinese Markets and they pressed beijing to respect human rights. Plus is their wife on venus scientists have found bush could be the 1st clue. To our viewers on p. B. S. In the United States and all around the world welcome u. S. President is in california where he plans to see firsthand the devastation caused by massive wildfires along the us why. Coast the president has been meeting with firefighters and emergency officials in the north of the state who have been struggling to control record blazes that have devastated 20000 square kilometers has blamed the fires on poor Forest Management and they fill your 2 clear underbrush democratic rival joe biden has pointed to Climate Change as the reason for the fall. All right our correspondent i mean as if he is at the airports in the state capital 2nd minto where the president landed earlier good afternoon to you i mean this is a surprise visit by double trump why did he decide to come now. Well he is here to talk about the wildfires and some some people around here might say finally his critics have blamed him of voiding the subject and as you said it was a surprise visit which a lot of his trumps of his supporters have come out here and stage an impromptu rally now he was talking in this hangar behind me to finally address to address the wildfires that have been burning in California California now is a blue state that means its going democrat most likely they havent voted for republican in a long time so he didnt plan this as one of the legs of his campaign trail but because of the headlines it seems hes finally decided to come here and address the situation and show that he has it under control and the president he doesnt even like to mention the words Climate Change hes blamed these fires on bad Forest Management what are critics saying about the president s handling of these im president of wildfires. Well critics say that he has not addressed the real cause of these massive fires this is unprecedented in the history of california at least in recorded history of california and climate Scientists Say this is directly related to Climate Change which trump has outright tonight he was asked about that link today he deflected that and said that Gavin Newsome the governor of california should address that question but later when Gavin Newsome was addressing the question he said actually the earth is going to get cooler you just watch i think scientists arent right on this one so again he has doubled down on his on what he said about Climate Change and forest fires yeah interesting prediction there. Is on the story for us in the california state capital sacramento thank you. Greek officials have again accused migrants of starting the fires that destroyed europes largest refugee camp last week on the island of was books the flames left more than 12000 people with nowhere to live with those people theyre now being urged to move into newly arrested temporary shelters but many of the refugees fear that the new camp will be no better then the west. At the back of a long line of hungry people waiting has become part of life on the island of les boss a friend aid workers hand out bags of food. Since the maurya camp down migrants have been camping out on the streets they return to roadside to eat is a simple but desperately needed meal and soon it will be time to start queuing for the next. Images from the ash a new shelter tents for thousands left homeless hundreds have already been resettled in sites like this but others fame moving to a new camps which is the pets rates of their misery if the good to new cham mori out again is the start about to me we experience a one year morea i think its enough to be able to stand the strain in the village because hes defining significant piece of. The protesters demand to be allowed to leave less pass nearly 400. 00 unaccompanied children have already left these women and children appealed to germany to get them off the island too. In berlin germanys foreign minister said it plans to help more homeless families because. There are a lot of voices in germany that have expressed a willingness to help those in distress in moria for in addition to his taking in unaccompanied minors mention in the words in movie out of it was. Greek authorities hope to move only migrants off the streets and into new camps by the end of the week but these protesters say as long as they are on less boss they will never be truly free. We could call a checkbook crutch for a next door neighbor russian president Vladimir Putin is granted the 1500000000. 00 loan to bella ruse in face to face talks with the embattled bill rusin leader Alexander Lukashenko the team and discussed a wide range of issues during their talks in sochi including joint military exercises and the bill received leader is facing unprecedented antigovernment demonstrations back home he is looking to moscow for support. It was smiles all around as russian president Vladimir Putin offered his better recent counterpart alexander location a seat in the face to face talks in sochi are the 1st since location co claimed the president ial election in august extending his controversial 26 year grip on power in belarus location co has had a lasting relationship with moscow since he 1st took office in may 1994 when he signed agreements with then president Boris Yeltsin to integrate into a political and Economic Union with russia but he didnt fully implement it now look it could be forced to fully commit to the terms of the agreement placing his country under the aegis of russia during the talks putin valve to stand even closer with the question. Russia remains true to all of our agreements including the agreements stemming from the union states treaty and the collective Security Treaty Organization we see as our closest ally and obviously as ive told you in our numerous phone conversations we will fulfill every obligation to. Issue you to what appeared to be a warning to antigovernment protesters back in that a risk the main thing is not to cross the line thats a red line and you are familiar with this even more than myself you had to draw these lines in chechnya when you were a young president i remember that and god forbid this happens in belarus but there are certain red lines nobody has the right to cross. A creek unprecedented protests sweeping better reus are now in the 6 week an estimated 150000 people turned out in minsk alone at the weekend the aim is clear they want to. The christian code from power. The United Nations said it is receiving was described to us at lomond reports of the repression of Peaceful Demonstrations the Un Human Rights Council has agreed to an easy proposal to call an emergency meeting to discuss the antigovernment uprising and the numbers. Are for more now lets go to our russia analyst constantine a good can even say you constantine what exactly did president lukashenko hope to get from Vladimir Putin and did he get exactly what he want yes he did but he wanted support from the dealer putin he wanted a photo op with him if you wanted to push him to treat him as a president of a neighboring country of an l. Ike and he wanted money and all of that she got and i think credit 1500000000. 00 that that was extended by moscow will go interestingly enough to cover at least not not all of it but part of it to come up through this critics that moscow has given them in belarus is a serial in the debt in terms of its relations with russia. At such a time i think photo op with mr putin was no less important to look at shane who faces increasing problems that have and this is a good that put in treaty as the real head of state is also very very poor thing to him because money enough was yeah i mean the optics here are important i know for the opposition in belarus there is the concern that maybe the fear too that russia could send in its military into bill routes did these 2 leaders did they discuss that possibility. Actually we dont know because apart from this announcement talk of a new credit extended nothing much came out of it but judging by the treaty pronouncements by mr putin for sale for example said a couple weeks ago that at the request of lukashenko he asks the reserve officers of police and honest than simply to stand by just in case a look at shaker needs help i think such things were discussed and discussed luka shameka seems to be. Pretty much already in debt to mr putin just to give one example. When bill Russian State Television work as went on strike members of the stuff members of our t. V. Russias Propaganda Network have basically gone to minsk to as they say consult a russian programs or some colleagues on how to produce programs so how does a ring being rented and i think that putin will continue to stick by the. Our russia analyst constantine and as always constantine we appreciate your insights thank you. Arliss have a look now at some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world doctors here in berlin treating russian Opposition Leader alexina violently say that his condition has improved and that hes now able to get out of bed for short periods of time the German Government says that labs in sweden in france have now confirmed german findings that the vulnerable was poisoned with the soviet era nerve agent no we joke people on the u. S. Gulf coast are bracing for the arrival of Hurricane Sally forecasters say it could make landfall in the wheezy ana and mississippi as a category 2 storm its expected to bring heavy rains and flooding to areas including new Orleans Sally is the 2nd hurricane to threaten the region in less than a month byt dance the Parent Company of the Popular Video sharing app ticktock says its chosen oracle as its new u. S. Technology partner though it will not sell the app or part with its source code President Trump has threatened to ban tick tock unless its chinese Parent Company sells its u. S. Business. German chancellor Angela Merkel says that European Union trade with china must be conducted on a level Playing Field merkel and other e. U. Leaders met today with chinas president xi jinping for it to talk about wide ranging issues such as trade Climate Change and the coronavirus pandemic the original plan was for a major face to face summit to seal in historic each China Investment agreement but progress on that investment has stalled and then came the coronavirus pandemic as well as chinas hard line in hong kong. Parmesan cheese rounds from China Chinese Companies are known for copying products from elsewhere in the world that was one item on the agenda at the video summit between e. U. Leaders and chinese president Xi Jinping China pledged to ensure that regional specialties like wine from the mozart and beer from munich are respected a small success in some us we are on the right which and in the us more work needs to be done we made it clear where we stand he you is demanding greater access to the Chinese Market for European Companies to reflect the access that chinese firms have in europe the e. U. Also wants beijing to commit to more environmentally friendly policies and to swear off new coal fired power plants chinas activities in hong kong were a point of intense dispute the e. U. Says beijing must respect human rights but chancellor Angela Merkel could not claim success on that front demonstrates the human rights dialogue will continue president she offered that so in this respect theres Common Ground for a further joint approach but that does not mean that there is agreement on these questions. And. Earlier we spoke to our europe correspondent gearboxes in brussels and we asked him why people are saying that relations between the European Union and china are the worst theyve been in decades theres a number of reasons really lets start with the political ones and the most complicated ones because predominantly the policy of the European Union so far has been guided by the principle of change through trait but looking at the political side of course you have the security law the controversial security law in hong kong Human Rights Violations and here it was quite interesting today to hear the Council President child michel bring up a whole list of the months what china has to do including international in the pending observers access. In a part of china where there have been alleged abuses Human Rights Violations against the local weaker Muslim Population now that will be interesting how that will play out so thats the political side of it then you have the corona crisis where europe somehow has realized particularly germany for instance that there is a dependency on supply chains particularly when it comes to medical supplies so that didnt go down well with a number of Member States and finally you have to as i mentioned the Market Access issue and that is really at the root of the problem the e. U. Commission today but also the chairman chancellor representing of the euro the presidency of the European Union have made it very clear that they do want to see concessions on the chinese part when it comes to business making business together that was gail months as their reporting from brussels youre watching news from berlin still to come is there life on venus scientists have found out what could be the 1st clue well go live to houston to find they dont what venus has that may be mars doesnt it. Were back here on earth children in italy have begun returning to school more than 6 months after the pandemic forced those schools to close some regions postponed the reopening today some schools are unable to meet the new hygiene requirements before those going back its a time of excitement with some apprehension. Social distancing has already been abandoned in this school as children flock back after half a year without class. Im not going to baghdad itll be somehow different. But itll be an unforgettable experience. Was what im going to school here will be more difficult because of the coronavirus my Previous School had fewer pupils but lets see itll work out some how. Many schools dont have enough desks to ensure the kids are kept apart teachers a voiced concern that infection rates could soar in classrooms which do not look less crowded than they did before the pandemic the Prime Minister acknowledges the problem with doing it that it will be difficult especially in the beginning. Our schools have been underfunded for years and the pandemic has made this even more obvious. I would love it if you have to do your part by following the rules so that your health and that of your loved ones is protected. The pupils are forbidden from sharing School Material which is kept in a box after lengthy preparations the measures are put to the test but not in all parts of the country rising infection rates have delayed School Reopening in some regions. Are less have a look now at some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world Paul Rusesabagina who was portrayed as a hero in a hollywood movie about rwandas 1994 genocide has been arrested and charged with terrorism he appeared in court for the 1st time in gali on monday his family says the charges against him are politically motivated they claim that he was kidnapped in dubai. The European Union has added its voice to the International Outcry over the execution of iranian wrestler not the current Iranian State media reported mr f. Charise execution on saturday he was convicted of stabbing a Security Guard to death during antigovernment protest in 2018 his family say that he confessed under torture and later retracted his state september is usually a time for cooler temperatures but western europe is experiencing a late summer heat wave rand in northwestern france reached 34 degrees celsius today with temperatures across the country expected to set new records for mid september. Summer blazes on as the season shows no signs of changing and fronts much of the country is experiencing a heat wave with some regions juicer reach highs of 35 degrees. The french are taking full advantage of the long hot summer ill be it amid concerns of global heating. And national were lucky its a beautiful day. In september its really no usual to go to the beach as well you cant complain but when we think about it we tell ourselves that it is normal. In paris where the temperature lingers around 30 degrees the heat is worrying experts say these exceptional temperatures and extreme heat are vents will likely continue in the years to come. This year we had a hot summer but that doesnt mean that the summers to come will necessarily be hotter on the other hand the underlying trend tells us that we are going to have longer and hotter summers with. Tourists and prisons alike enjoy the unseasonal heat in the capital the climatologists warn of the consequences on the planet as the climate continues to warm. But one place that is always very hot venus when all space researchers have encountered potential songs of life on the planet theyve detected fos find gas in the surrounding one of our nearest planetary neighbors it could have originated from a number of sources but researchers are not ruling out the presence of wife or. Is there life in the clouds around venus. Its too early to tell but an International Research team has discovered a clue the rare gas fos feen on earth its produced by microbes who live in low oxygen environments. Telescopes in chile and hawaii spotted the gas by its chemical signature. Phosphate in molecules in venus is clouds absorbed short wave radio waves that exist in the lower atmosphere but can the gas really come from microorganisms. The researchers explicitly say that they are not in the position to state that theyve discovered life in venus is that most fear. Could result from natural processes like lightning volcanic activities or for other reasons most of any case. If there really are microorganisms in venus as clouds they would be hearty beings indeed those clouds are full of. Witches for its all to life. Whether theres truly life in those clouds must be confirmed by further observation a Russian Space probe is expected to reach venus is surface in the coming decade. Possible life on venus talk about that im joined now by justin philibert so he is with the Lunar Planetary Institute in Houston Texas mr philip good to have you on the show you are a specialist in mars and venus to tell me how widely is the existence of microbes on or a real genius what do you think. This is a really cool and very tantalizing new results but i always go back to phrase made popular by carl sagan that extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence and even the authors say life is one of the possibilities but its not the only yet we need another mission we need a new mission to get into the cloud deck and actually measure this and see if it is in and how much is there well talk to me about faustina why is philosophy gas why is it so crucial here. Because it breaks down in action in large abundance as in the atmosphere so one of the main process that produces at large quantities is microbial activity and said thats why its used when its in high levels as a bio signature as the paper states and as the video clip we just heard there are other processes that can produce it no lower levels and so this is one of the things that we need to see how much is in those clouds you know weve always heard that venus because it is closer to the sun and because of its atmosphere that it would just be too hostile too hot for any type of life as we know what do these findings do they you know put that theory into question. That theory is for the crust so the surface of venus thats 470. 00 degree is in its 92. 00 bars its a very caustic environment not outside of the rome of light as we know it the clouds going back to carl sagan and then my colleague dave grinspoon have been proposing life in the clouds for decades and this is sort of the 1st tantalizing evidence that maybe there are there and youve said we need another mission so what would that mission look like if you had on your wish list. We need an atmosphere of to go down into the atmosphere and measure the chemistry. And. Its ok. Sorry we understand that its. Yes the lets go ahead mr the even least. We would need an atmosphere of some not spectrometer go down into the clouds and measure the chemistry and look for not just a scene but also things like organics and other bio signatures to see how much is there and what is there in order to sort of definitively prove that its life or not ok mr Justin Phillip it are we appreciate your insights tonight with the cameo appearance of your little kid there thank you its Live Television its ok thank you. Cards words news now in french Football Party son jim odd and star player neymar hosted bitter rivals marsay newmark says that he was the target of racist slurs from.
