Leave the city in exceptional cases the virus would be less destructive if ill put it to actually did that job its a sentence that you hear more and more on the streets of madrid people are increasingly tired of a political system in which power games seem more important than pragmatic Crisis Management and they hardly see any sign of improvement. Dr and overall it isnt done yet she takes a short coffee break 3 hours after her shift was supposed to end and will then attention 2 more patients. Shes worried that the coming days will even be longer for her and her colleagues. And in germany authorities have brought in the new restrictions asked coronavirus cases in some cities reach what they call worrying levels the Southern City of munich is now classed as a virus hotspot private and public gatherings that a limited to 10 people and only 25 guests are allowed to attend bigger events like weddings and birthdays in the capital berlin and the western city of cologne new curbs put in place over the weekend bars clubs and restaurants have to shot by left at nights. Joined by Andrew Allman hes a member of the German Parliament for the freedom a critic party and also an expert in Infectious Diseases himself mr allman one more german cities becoming coronavirus hotspots are you worried. Of course im worried because the development of those numbers are increasing and its about time that we traced try to face this problem with this lawyer to strategy right now were still working on all the. Methods to keep these numbers down. But. Theres a lot of confusion about new containment measures every german state seems to be introducing different rules isnt it time that we have a coordinated approach with the same rules for everyone. Oh this is definitely clear we need a cord approach and uniform rules throughout germany broke go that far to see that even within the European Union because one problem that we faced in the springtime was the case of a lockdown and also the closing of orders we have to actually appreciate that the survivors is diffusely all around the world and also all around europe and we cannot cut down on the hotspots we have to look at the clusters but we have to actually uproot this situation worse smarter more intelligent to be sure that the this raid will be slowed down but to be honest any measure that we take will never give us 100 Percent Security it will just reduce the risk of spreading this virus and i think that is the important part now we have to understand and thats why its so important to have a very smart to strategy because we have more because capacities besides the p. C. R. Because these chemicals these are already limited but we have new tests coming up we know the Global Community and for example the antigen rapid tests. There was strict and many cases have some bizarre side effects but limits for example are not allowed to stay in the hole to a neighboring which is sort of half an hours drive from here but there are lots of travel to greece how can you explain that to normal people. I actually cannot explain this to normal people because i think these measures are an appropriate minister just last week group needs to go said that it is important during the fall the cation time that you should do take your vacation here within germany and do not travel outside of our country when all of a sudden hotel argumentations or. Want to call it a holiday apartment or youre not allowed to visit anymore if you are coming from a region here in germany where there is a higher incidence rate of infections so this doesnt really make so much sense i think you could still travel through germany if you take the important measures with taking distance hiking rules and wearing a mask and can be combined in this to strategies as well and room on a number of parliament for the liberal f.

Jokes mustnt an antique us activist says the attack has underscored how severely oppressed delicately men and other marginalized groups are in india. But were not addressing the root cause of it which is the system and the brutalities that are stemming from as the effect of the system we see every day that these brutalities are manufactured and meted out on the bodies of dalit women. People dollar transfer people and even muslim women and Muslim Community as a whole juts not so dark horse the state the police and the Indian Society as a whole accountable for the crimes committed against the Dalit Community and women in particular. The 4 accused in the hot russkies have been arrested but serious questions have been raised against the autocracies administration.

A ceasefire brokered by russia in the disputed region of the go on a car a box has failed to hold a budge on and armenia blaming each other for breaking the truce and escalating 2 weeks of fierce clashes shelling has killed several civilians and wounded stars and small conflict between the 2 former soviet republics dates back to the 1990 s.

In the peace our sleeping it was around 2 in the morning we heard an explosion and after that our house blew up it was watching those that in debbie did no damage to not rock fell on my face.

A Prisoner Exchange meant to take place sunday was also part of the ceasefire the leader of the so proclaimed main republic of nagornokarabakh says azerbaijan is not living up to its part of the deal. According to the agreement this process was supposed to take place today with the support of the red cross. There are hundreds of dead body. Hes lying there and the government is indifferent to their. Well over good. As about john says its a mania that is acting in bad faith. It seems that the armenian side continues to use the ceasefire to its advantage their attacks on the civilian population of azerbaijan these events were also covered by foreign journalists in our country. Its now been 2 weeks of fighting inflaming old hatreds. That decades of negotiations have failed to put to rest. The u. S. Senate has started hearings on how any kone barretts presence Donald Trumps latest Supreme Court nominee 4 day here in south specter to be a bit of partisan fights ahead of the november president ial election if approved replace liberal Justice Ruth Bader ginsburg who recently died aged 87. At 48. 00 a judge could shape the Supreme Court for many decades to come 3 years ago trump appointed the staunch conservative to the federal court of appeals in chicago she has indicated support for gun rights trumps immigration policies and restrictions on abortion and l g b t rights group called her quote an absolute threat feminists fear she may move to restrict abortion rights in 2013 as a professor at the university of notre dame she was quoted as saying life begins at conception Senate Democrats grilled her on her religious views during the 27000 Appeals Court confirmation hearings and in california senator Dianne Feinstein was even accused of anticatholic bigotry i think your case professor. When you read your speeches. The conclusion one draws is that the dog lives loudly within you barrett has said repeatedly that her faith would not interfere with her judicial decisions if barrett is confirmed to be for election day on of them a 3rd one of the 1st cases in front of her will be about the fate of the Affordable Care act known as obamacare trump wants to invalidate the law which provides health care to millions of americans. Im not joined by William Cooper from a us election to william what can we expect from todays or republicans are of course going to say that she is a qualified excellent judge who deserves to be on the Supreme Court democrats are going to counter that that is irrelevant that she is a radical that her of views both personal and while being a Federal District judge that she currently is dont align with the views of Many Americans and that she will further threaten a lot of democratic progressive causes 1st and foremost as we heard just now in the report the Affordable Care act otherwise known as obamacare that theres been many efforts by conservatives and by republicans to strike down this Health Care Reform and that the final nail in the coffin might be coming up with Amy Tony Barrett on the court so thats the worst i can hear from people on this Energy Committee we already know a little bit of what she herself might say because her state is already out and a lot of it is very personal and a lot about her family and her background but there is one thing that jumps out where she says a judge must apply the law as written not as the judge wishes it were that might come as some comfort to nonpartisans or to democrats but of course this is pretty boilerplate kind of rhetoric no judge is ever going to say that they are politically you know bent one way or the other of course theyre always going to say theyre going to look at the law look at the facts and rule accordingly so why is this Supreme Court such a potato were. Just a couple weeks from the election some polls show that americans would prefer that this Supreme Court vacancy vacated by the death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg be. Held off until theres an election to we know the next president is of course there is nothing stopping President Trump and republicans who are republican allies in the senate from doing what theyve done they have the right to do it many people say whether it was right to do it regardless that she does have a right to do it the Supreme Court now with Ruth Bader Ginsburg having been on it was a 54 split 5 justices appointed by republicans for by democrats if this goes through as republicans would like well see a 63. 00 tilt which means that for decades Going Forward there can be a almost permanent conservative lock on the Supreme Court which of course has a huge impact on what laws actually stand in the United States so what role will any one of our the play on the hold with. I mean she has she has many rulings on her record she has many personal statements on her record we can only lean so much on history there is a counter history actually of many justices thought to be conservative with a conservative background a conservative record being appointed by conservative president s when they finally get to the Supreme Court being faced with different issues Different Cases to adjudicate that actually theyve leaned more liberal most recently john roberts the chief justice. Upholding the most recent challenge the Affordable Care act much to the frustration and the anger of many republicans lets not forget that Amy Tony Barrett in addition to possibly hearing yet another case on the Affordable Care act could be overseeing a case about the very election itself as donald trump has promised if things dont go his way he might bring this is Supreme Court and we could be seeing again what we saw in 2000 when that election was decided by the Supreme Court in the favor of republicans interesting. Thank you. Scientists who spend more than a year studying Climate Change in the arctic have returned to base with rather alarming findings the german ship.
