We heard from civil rights lawyer Robert Patillo who says people have found enough. Year after year decade after decade there are cries for help cries for change demands that policy be changed to protect communities and Nothing Happened its bills over into an event such as this ferguson didnt happen in one day and what one clearly pretty great did not happen in one day and will end with one killing similarly this is not about this one individual but about a broken system and the number of times people assess or experience as feelings this themselves and now finally and this is a boiling point in the summer of racial reckoning in america where finally we have to address these it is born of the systemic issues that people are finding demanding change for so nobody condones writing no one he dont moving but its almost like she said what happened to a bring the furred and at the end he said oh so i think what we have to Start Talking about is what are going d to be the legislative solutions to change the these issues Going Forward who will handle this as a systemic issue president obama didnt do so present from has done so president clinton president bush did not do so going back to him and hell no one has done anything to address these on systemic level so how can we change policing how can we change the relationship between communities and between the those who work and serve them how can we best in short dollars so the communities do not simply feel on her and represented by their elected officials so these are multifaceted multigenerational issues that are now boiling over boil over it will get peoples attention but people in ok its in simple pot boiling it to me. With election day fast approaching in the u. S. Polarize ation of racial tensions appear to have obscured just how similar some of the main rivals policies are in particular when it comes to Foreign Policy later this hour a look at whether joe biden really is the alternative someone looking for. Frances interior minister is warning of possible terrorist attacks in the country theres anti french sentiment intensifies in muslim communities amid a crackdown on suspected islam ists it also revealed that this campaign would be stepped up targeting groups promoting radical islam if it has if it was good as in the level of terrorist threats in france is very high because we have a lot of enemies within and outside the country its hard because of the Charlie Hebdo trial and other terrorist trials which are underway there are existing threats confusing at times but there are a lot of them i think each of us should be shocked to see there are some foreign powers think that frances muslims belong to them what gives them the right to meddle in our business but paris is also advising its citizens living in or traveling to muslim countries to exercise caution protests erupted abroad over the french Governments Defense of freedom of expression that in the wake of the recent murder of a teacher it showed his class caricature of the prophet mohammed. Was. It was. It would be happy happy happy happy happy. If it was bad to ever happen to have happened there is this huge anti sentiment that is it sparked up in the wake of that with protests now in many majority muslim countries with some of burning effigies of president back on and to call for a boycott on french products present back or has refused to step down over this comment which would perhaps diffuse this situation and he has been accused of with playing up anti muslim sentiment and thats because in the wake of that terror attack there has been a crackdown on Muslim Associations and of mosques that are all said to have extremist sympathies here in france and theres already been some repercussions seen with attacks being investigated including attack that took place last week in order in the west of france and that was against 2 jordanians a brother and a sister who required hospital treatment they say they were attacked because they were speaking arabic now the charge against president has been led by the turkish president president who on who suggested twice in recent days that matter corn needs a Mental Health track but even here in france some Muslim Association say that they do not want these Quantrill Herschel cartoons to be shown in schools between freedom of expression and the deliberate will to offend the feelings of muslims there is the duty of brotherhood and responsibility theres also a growing fear here in france one poll. We showed that 79 percent of people who responded that really believed that islam is some had declared war on the country of france and the recalls for increased vigilance particularly around places of worship and in gatherings and that warning comes from frances director general of the National Police who believes that the Terror Threat here is particularly high in the wake of all of this this route between france and muslim majority countries seems to be widening every day and its spilling out now into some very serious consequences. As part of his response to the high risk of terrorism frances increasing security of religious sites the director of the could center for Political Studies in amman where hes the crackdown on religious extremists might be perceived as an attack on islam it seems that we are again the. Clash of civilization and the struggle between really just. This is not good for the partition between the 2 shore shores of the mediterranean this it creates a lot of problems in the arab world and its a relationship with europe is usually with france france should be very much careful differentiating between radical. Emerged in the Muslim Community in europe in the last 125 years and the Muslim Community at large this is different you very much in this period of time. Russia has applied to the World Health Organization for an emergency license for its covert job as one of the 1st countries to do so if approved spending would become available globally and so you know lets go live to our correspondent greg as they are hes following this story now to russia in among those countries racing to be the 1st to get a vaccine put out there globally where is it standing in that race at the moment. Well this is the 1st application followed will do with the World Health Organization about a vaccine so a vaccine and the russians are pretty confident you know its now up to the World Health Organization to run this vaccine sputnik through through the gauntlet tested for efficacy tested for quality for safety but as i say the russians are pretty confident this wasnt a vaccine that was built from from the ground up so its a match trials are already underway Prominent Russian officials as well as medics journalists have already had that job thousands of people involved in these trials but as i say this this wasnt a vaccine that was developed from the ground up it was based on an existing vaccine platform that was merely adapted updated. So this is one of the reasons why theyre confident that this is safe that this is going to work nevertheless obviously you have to test it you have to run it through through all manner of tests and the to meet srijit criteria and it is now up to the World Health Organization. We have submitted an application for emergency use listing and prequalification of the vaccine by the World Health Organization which would allow sputnik the to be included in the list of medical products that meet the leading quality safety and efficacy standards we express our gratitude to the World Health Organization for its active cooperation and look forward to the successful completion of the prequalification process at all major stages look the 2nd wave is well and truly here it is proving exceptionally damaging exceptionally painful records being set all over the world in russia on tuesday a new record in daily deaths from. 30350 people also killed yesterday because of covert you you know 30000 dead since the pandemic began one a half 1000000 infected things are better internationally in france were seeing warnings that hospitals will be flooded will be no more beds left of patients if things go on as they do a new record there as well 500 people dead yesterday in june on tuesday 30030 over the course of one day the United States half a 1000000 infected over the course of a week a quarter of a 1000000 now now dead from from covert so you know the situation is it is desperate all of these restrictions are kemah coming back into force in russia they arent quite as draconian as they were back here in the spring but now were seeing you know mandatory mosques everywhere no public spaces no all public transport quarantines isolations. Theres all manner of restrictions and in italy weve seen riots riots for several days now over these draco nian many draconian measures that have. Implemented that you know people or people aggregate people remember how painful this is economically with regards to live you know its jobs how painful all of these measures are and doxes are well aware of how how dangerous the situation is and how you know how. At risk we are going over the edge of the situation spiraling out of all control so obviously of the view that the race is on the race continues and it isnt just the russian vaccine that is being fostered act it is vaccines from all over the world in this in this race to beat couvade before it does irreversible damage. Thing is an update on that story thats aunties mark gasnier thank you appreciate your company this afternoon now just to overtake here in the russian capital loss more news coming your way after this short break. Normally speaking the role of the media is to inform the public this mission is now on hold large parts of the media landscape particularly big to believe should be determining what the public can do and from who has controlled speech please freedom of speech. Welcome back with the president ial election just days away now the democratic nominee joe biden has called on the International Community to significantly expand its sanctions on the belorussian leadership his rival donald trump already applied his own penalties on minsk earlier this month and that is killing more but explains trump abides views on Foreign Policy are often similar. The Trump Administration has imposed sanctions like mad country after country that has earned washingtons ire has been hit with banking isolation trade restrictions and other acts that amount to basically Economic Warfare no president in all of us history has imposed as many economic sanctions as u. S. President donald trump now will this change under joe biden lets examine it from a case by case basis. Will iran get sanctions relief with joe in the white house he says no we will continue to use targeted sanctions against irans human rights abuses its support for terrorism and Ballistic Missile program. Trumps trade war with china is his crowning achievement but by he has no intention of undoing it in fact his rhetoric on the issue is about the same as trumps we need to get tough which. Is china has its way its going to keep its going to keep moving and robin u. S. Firms for Technology Intellectual Property and for she American Companies to give away give it away in order to do business in china we are now make it it clear to china. That after years of targeting our industries and stealing our intellectual property the theft of american jobs and wealth. As come to an end when it comes to trade wars bidens hands could be tied theres so much anti china rhetoric he couldnt just lift the tariffs different sauce but the same general position i will use tariffs when they are needed but the difference between me and trump is that i will have a strategy a plan to use those tariffs to win not just a fake toughness were taken in right now hundreds of billions of dollars were taking in billions of dollars of tariffs what weve done thus far with china weve never take it in 0. 10 until i get elected now were taking in billions and billions. Another hotspot venezuela where donald trump and joe biden take identical positions they both support kwan guede o. The unelected selfproclaimed president 8 of venezuela and they want out biden once more sanctions on venezuela not less the u. S. Should push for stronger multilateral sanctions so that supporters of the regime cannot live studies show or hide their assets in the United States europe or latin america. Then there is washingtons biggest ally in europe they are not happy with Donald Trumps stance on nato and germany is not particularly pleased with the white houses efforts to kill the nord stream to pipeline either with tensions rising the German Foreign minister says that not much will really change in that department under a new administration those in europe who are now betting everything on a change in the white house should be prepared for the fact that even in that case it will not be as comfortable as it once was u. S. Foreign and Security Policy has changed and not just since strong became president if you scour recent history its pretty hard to find an example of sanctions actually working but lack of results does not seem to be a factor biden seems like he will be just as committed to these policies as donald trump up and r. T. New york. Ushering in a new conservative era for the u. S. Supreme court pick of a macone beret as a new judge has been confirmed by the senate that leaves the court which has a huge influence on u. S. Life with 6 right leaning justices and 3 from the liberal side as expected all democrats in the senate voted against parents appointment they were joined by one republican left the final vote 52 in favor 48 against the American People put their trust in you and their faith in you as you take up the task of defending our laws our constitution and this country that we all love the rushton unprecedented confirmation of amy kearney parents as associate justice to the Supreme Court in the middle of an ongoing election should be a stark reminder to every american that your vote matters. Barack becomes just the 5th woman appointed to the Supreme Court and the 1st ever mother of School Children to take the role. In proabortion communities a voice that concern over the views of the devout catholic the colleagues claim she will be a sympathetic and hostile judge hell of a joke a short president ial candidate the socialist Equality Party and so this may this part of term strategy to maintain power there will be really one has to understand the ramming through of this nomination in the context of trumps electoral strategy because he certainly sees the Supreme Court as a critical element of his efforts to undermine the results of the election and maintain power whatever happens in the popular vote the democrats are really terrified of the development of a real Popular Movement against from to conspiracy theyre really covering up the far reaching significance of what the president of the United States is doing. Threatening the process so its about itself the real question is the development of mass popular opposition not only to trump but to the ruling class policy that you represents a financial oligarchy in the United States but certainly the appointment of barry is a new home mark in the destruction of democratic rights in the United States and a real warning to the working people in this country and throughout the world. Around us and wrapped it in germany after a group of artists in berlin to game design is a losing their funding as a result with more is atis peter all of. A berlin arts school has found itself in a debate over what constitutes an anti semitism after the licensee consult schuller removed funding for a program run by jewish israeli artists and scholars that sought to lurd zionism the ideology and nationalist movement behind the creation of the state of israel the practice of on learning is related to looking at power relations and your own role within them in order to dismantle had germany and be partners in struggles for equality we must have this conversation amongst ourselves the Israeli Embassy got involved and said the program questions the right of israel to exist as a state and should be stopped the art school receive state funding and as such opposition politicians say this particular program cannot and should not take place there the question is if such an event can be entitled to government funding nobody has said this a bunch would be banned but the state doesnt have to support Something Like that. But the organizers feel the art school has caved in to pressure applied to them really important moments of growing and learning together have been happening in the space and then this institution comes in sense we need to talk differently or go back to israel where its not a problem the organizers of the program say take just want to have a discussion about israel and its place in the molten middle east through both israeli and palestinian but it seems on this occasion its not the discussion thats going to be able to happen at an institution that receives funding from the German Ministry of education i think.
