Welcome to the program u. S. President and his democratic challenger joe biden have been answering questions from voters at separate televised events held at the same time on different t. V. Channels t. V. Town Hall Meetings as they are known have replaced the 2nd president ial debate which was canceled off the trump was diagnosed with covert 19 and then refused to conduct the debate online as we reported the 2 rivals showed they have very different approaches and both style and substance. Always confident at times defensive as the incumbent u. S. President donald trump now has a record to pick apart and he got a grilling starting out with the nations biggest crisis the coronavirus. Knew it was a big threat at the same time i dont want to panic this country i dont want to go out and say everybodys going to die everybody is going to air it over after you dont have this holiday but you can you know you know its not going to get and more contentious exchanges as trump made exaggerated claims about voter fraud and deflected criticism over his tax returns and his position on White Supremacy in the rush into it youve done this why is everybody seem like i do now its White Supremacy ok few times against a White Supremacy for years my position at the same time on a different channel a different tone chimes challenger joe biden offered a forceful rebuke of trumps Pandemic Response is the president s responsibility to lead and he didnt do that he didnt talk about what needed to be done because he kept worrying and my view about the stock market we make up 4 percent of the worlds population we have 20 percent of the worlds deaths were in a situation where we have 210. 00 plus 1000 people dead and whats he doing nothing he still would not worry mask and so on because at times that bite and he entered but he did deliver clear punch lines on a number of issues including Foreign Policy if they will and before the election you are open greeba most effective as a world leader in my humble opinion not just by the exercise of our power most powerful nation in the world but the power of our example thats whats led the rest of the world to follow us calling for after trading blows remotely the 2 candidates will again face off at the final Election Debate next week about making the june 4th we spoke to a washington correspondent all of us all thats. What stood out. Most for him in these appearances it seemed like this new format the town hall works better for joe biden so trump in turn he made a lot of false claims during this conversation. And the host there at the network that broadcast this town hall n. B. C. Challenge President Trump grilled him essentially over a variety of questions and topics and simply that he did not look good defending himself he did not look good debating certain points he didnt want to remember or didnt know the certain details so biden in turn had a rather solid appearance then come across a lot more president ial as someone who is really willing and able also to heal the nation that is very divided right now of course and he was able to deliver his points much better. During the 1st debate that ended in chaos. And for more on this to empower fact check out your survey about from studios in made some claims about the coronavirus and his appearance last night that start with a clip on that is stories that ministers to give witness to im ok with this people where mr good just the other day they came out with the statement that 85 percent of the people that were missed catching. That thats what i heard and thats what i saw so thats what he heard so what is he referring to then and is that correct. Well president trampers again referring to a study of the u. S. Center for Disease Control and prevention the c. D. C. From september he said this before and basically we have to say its a misinterpretation of the study what it found out was that among those persons who tested positive for the coronavirus 85 percent said that they were bearing a mask always often yes but on the other hand also they found out that those persons who tested negative 89 percent reported they were wearing a mask so the c. D. C. Even clarified this on twitter by saying the interpretation that more mask where us are getting infected compared to nonmarket where us is incorrect and in addition we have to say the study had a very small sample the results cannot be generalized so however the research as of the c. D. C. Said that there are situations in which mass can be worn for example while drinking or eating and we dont know why President Trump repeatedly makes these misleading claim about the c. D. C. Study and there are so many more studies that prove facemasks are well slowing down the spread of the coronavirus well lets have a look at his opponent mr biden one topic at that town hall meeting was the future of energy heres what he had to say on fracking 1st of all. Make it clear i do not. Pose any frankly you i think you have to make sure that frankie is in fact not merely methane or loony in the world or do it with we can be. How theyre going to has to be managed very well number one. Is he making any claims there can be challenged. This deserves a closer look biden was asked by a voter about his Energy Policies and how fracking had hurt people and the environment to he seems to be clear here but this is at odds with his own running mates old position Vice President ial candidate coming to harris has stated previously that shes in favor of banning fracking she has since reversed her position but joe bidens website said he wishes to ban new permits from being issued for fracking and once to gradually move away from it so far he emphasizes more the reduction of pollution and the reclaiming of several mines which should come along with new jobs instead of moving on with fracking so this is at least a bit confusing for me at what he actually really really wants here that are in fact yes ive ever thank you. Lets turn now to some of the other stories making headlines around the world zealands Prime Minister just. Has hit the streets for the last day of campaigning and of parliamentary elections this weekend irans labor party has a Comfortable Lead in polls conservative opponents judy collins also campaigning saying her party is best placed to handle the post demick economy. U. S. Social media platform twitter says its investigating a global outage the company says it has no evidence of a Security Breach or a hack users in many countries reported not being able to use the platform for more than an hour. 13 bodies have been recovered from a landslide in Central Vietnam triggered by drenching rains nearly all of the victims were Army Officers on a mission to rescue other workers in another landslide flooding across the country has killed at least 36 people since last weekend. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson is due to respond to the monster put forward by the European Union on the 2nd day of braggs the talks in brussels 2 sides have been haggling over a trade deal to prevent a no deal greg said at the end of the transition period on january 1st the e. U. Has called on the u. K. To give more concessions in the negotiations and has also agreed to continue talks until the last possible moment. While our correspondent is at the summit in brussels no progress on braggs it at this late stage does anybody there think the deal can be salvaged. Yet at least that is what both sides have been saying for weeks and months now that they want a deal now how likely is that going to be all eyes today on london because a deadline that Boris Johnson set himself for yes the day has already passed away he said a deal needs to be within reach so today Michel Barnier is meeting his counterpart david frost in london they will have talks the finnish Prime Minister interesting lee guess what they said after talking with all the leaders in bonn year said bunny has the necessary flexibility so the flexibility to make compromises in order to reach a deal and itll be interesting to see how that plays out in london today whether the decisive step can be done what is clear is the e. U. Is is or everyone agrees and is on the same page that they are not the ones who leave the negotiating table. Europe is also being affected by the corona virus pandemic again right now is anything substantial being done at each level to deal with it or is it every country fighting for itself. And the Council Conclusion yesterday evening there was talk about continued coordination efforts so far the us already achieved quite a bit they have a mutual map where they recognise the same standards so you have green areas orange areas and red areas it is clear that from green areas you can travel to green areas but with less screen areas on the map and mainly orange and red they now have to decide what how they can set the same standards for travel restrictions for instance and that is something that all leaders have said yesterday we need to work on everyone is on the same page here again that to fight the pandemic they need common standards and that is something they want to work out now on a weekly basis. The e. U. Commission president also from the line have to leave the summit and go into quarantine are people there thinking that holding this summit in person maybe was a bad idea. Well look its not it just goes off on a line its also the finnish Prime Minister who did today left the summit because she had been in contact with a member of parliament in finland and she was among those including the danish Prime Minister who said look we dont always need personal meetings we can do without them the video conferences the works fine on the other hand a number of Member States yesterday made clear that in person meetings are crucial and if you look at yesterdays dinner where mobile phones and tablets were collected so that pete leaders could confidentially talk about directed at that is one of those examples where if you want to get stuff done it is really important is what diplomats have told me a number of times now if you want to get stuff done you have to meet in person. Because one of the u. N. Headquarters in brussels thank you. As the number of infections rise many European Countries are introducing stricter measures to stop the spread of covert 19 poland urged its citizens to stay at home and has ordered gyms and pools to be closed in warsaw and other areas known as red zones no weddings can be held and high schools have been told to move lessons online poll and manage to keep the number of infections low in the early days of the pandemic. Example phenomena reports the government is now facing criticism for failing to prepare the country for the 2nd wave. And the foothills of the. Popular Tourist Destination this winter however pub ocean leader has little hope of much business normally his familys guest house would Welcome School classes and other organized tour groups but most of them have already canceled. The trip but the show that if we didnt own this place and just rented it would have already given up. No matter what. 100 percent of. The guest house practically generates no income but still costs money to ship the ducky with tourist numbers slowly rising again over the summer pablo she legal was hoping for a situation to improve but now the region has been declared a red zone due to a surge in covering 1000. 00 cases and that means additional restrictions including wearing a mask in public spaces and the ban on cultural events and pharmacy in the center of the compound of polands most popular mountain resort. Has been running it for 24 years so fuck your common sense of incident is that this has been going on for months now so people have slowly started getting used to it but the situation for us here is difficult. As a popular Tourist Destination we. Are more at risk during the 1st wave of the pandemic in the spring polands National Conservative government reacted quickly by imposing a lockdown and closing the countrys borders for foreign travelers but since then the thirtys have been facing growing criticism for failing to prepare Polands Health system for a 2nd we visit my agenda at home her husband originally from we all try in the u. K. Contracted the virus in the spring fortunately without severe symptoms he praises polands Quick Response to the pandemic but is worried about its hospitals the Health System power and is basically enormously lacking in funding. So if its the country becomes overwhelmed then i think its going to be a problem because of the number of hospital beds and respirators the medical staff public legalize all. The war it in addition to his regular job here organizes weddings here in the mountains they have to be big but its almost impossible to plan a wedding he and his Business Partners say if the authorities make ad hoc decisions all the time. They should have set limits from the beginning what difference does it make if we have 50 or 100 wedding guests in a group of 10 people who are in a small circle we know each other and we can react quickly if anything happens.

Their watching t w news still to come and bollywood looks set to get back on its feet after being hobbled by the pandemic for thousands of extras and low paid workers in the industry the future may not be so bright. All that a moment 1st we go to thailand where Prime Minister. Says he wont stand down amid ongoing Anti Government demonstrations and calls for his resignation police in the capital bangkok are bracing for more protests today as demonstrators continue to defy a ban on gatherings to activists were charged under a rarely used law that prohibits violence against the queen if found guilty the face life in prison. Defended his governments attempts to quell the armrests. Well aware of the situation. The government must use the emergency decree. So we have to proceed with it because the situation became violent. And some of the things happening now have never happened before. The protesters are demonstrating to call feel resignation. Really whats your decision. Im not quitting. To kenya now are the legs of kenya as a rift valley are rising threatening homes and businesses water levels been increasing for years but a particularly high this year following heavy rains to make matters worse 2 lakes lake bearing go and like big oreo which you can see on this map have grown so much that they run the risk of merging together but lake is a sail and lake while leg baringo is a freshwater lake providing Drinking Water to animals and people it would be an ecological disaster if the 2 lakes made lake bug oriya so swollen from rising water levels that the shoreline changes every day. We see this early on in our trip when the axis rude unexpectedly becomes part of the leak. Nearby we find. Whos just arrived to open her bond restaurant and theres been a dramatic change. Theres a lot of this water just came in within one day i said came slowly and slowly until it got to this level so without any notice you have to demolish within just a few seconds. China gets has already been forced to move her business once its inevitable that she will have to move again and shes not the only one the structure were looking at is an entry point that was erected by the Kenya Wildlife service after their original gates were submerged by water its wanted to 3 months before the lake eventually caught up with this one and we can clearly see that this water is unrelenting what we cant see but we can certainly smell is this similar rigs thats also being brought to be this because obviously people here use pit latrines and all their contents are now under water and the water is clearly unrelenting because all around us the ground is soggy and there is little of all over the place the extent of the flooding can be seen clearly from neighboring requiring go the freshwater lake has expanded by 60 percent in the last 7 years this year has been by far the worst. Folks are to a guide grew up on the shores of this leak where has been scarce as most of the hotels are now underwater. He leads us to one of many flooded schools in the area so revealing a year youve seen all the decaying buildings. But our last story is the most significant for folks i grew up here my foster in 2 years of life are spent each year this was my break ground its quite sad to see it drop going through and i dont know what im going to tell my kids scientists are warning that freshwater lake baringo and salt water like bulgaria could merge the cross contamination would destroy the balance in the ecosystem. To understand what is happening to the lakes we head to the forest home to the rivers that feed the lakes in the rift valley mau forest is recovering from years of deforestation. David weston has been a conservationist for more than 50 years he says the destruction of the catchment areas is just one in a series of linked problems the pastoral people are settling down and staying in one place so what that means is every single day you have heavy grazing and that is really prominent around the barunga basin up in the hills on the side so all of that erosion is being washed off routinely so in 2018 we had rainfall which was the equivalent of el nino in 1908 then followed last year by these extraordinary rains which have continued for a whole year so that means degradation huge amount of runoff and siltation and its the combination of those 2 that have made these rift valley lakes and even other areas like amber sally just lift 10 sometimes 15 meters thanks back in bulgaria a storm bring. Its shorts over shifts. China is visibly worried and soon how worst fears are realized the water level has gone up again this could be her last day understand. Its the following day and construction has started on Higher Ground and this is where china gets new home and business will be. Its a fresh and easy start no one can be sure the war to winterize this high because no one believes the water would ever get as far as it already has. But you know whose it is commodity reporting that to india now where many movies theaters have begun reopening after being forced to close because of the pandemic the countrys multibillion dollar bollywood Film Industry has welcomed the move as much of its income comes from a local cinema screening.

Most of them are now struggling to find what is now just beginning to pick up a bit but only in fits and starts and under strict anti widest measures thanks to budgets have been pared back and the indian Film Industry dreams from the shutdown of movie theaters its biggest source of revenue even and then the shoot for just starting now actors especially are requesting for minimal crew so our crew sizes i shrinking which of course means those people who were doing leverage will end up being the biggest loser in this shift you.
