Still ahead on aljazeera a test of leadership we look at why some World Leaders are under fire for their handling of the pandemic. As the weather warms up at newquay many people in seaside resorts are concerned about a possible 2nd wave of cases. Hello that warming up across Western Areas of europe and still very well across the southeast meanwhile to the north a lot of cloud as you can see but not just cloud rain but even this i think the picture is really rather speak for themselves this is into southern finland and the snow was coming down and in fact to fold on is false as well it should actually melt for you quickly because the temperatures will be in the low double figures that is a fairly unsettled weather pattern blustery winds rain showers across much of scandinavia through the baltics as well some more rain just work its way into areas of ukraine trading down across into the balkans but really apart from that its sunny it is dry the temperature is beginning to come back up so 22. 00 for london and paris on a warm 25. 00 celsius across in vienna now so if you will the northwest of africa for ones weve actually got some clear dry weather across much of morocco algeria saying the bulk of the showers with the clouds and then look at this time of the 2842 it aaa but as we go into monday the winds will change direction coming down from the cool and all through the match and so that means a high of 27 to actually feeling quite a bit cooler to me water still very warm across 43 and the showers a say theyll continue to play these coastal areas of algeria quite a bit of cloud as well so cool in algiers with a high of 19 celsius. Rewind return to care bring your people back to life im sorry updates on the best of aljazeera documentaries in the living close to the books. Like any other student rewind continues which shows its journey this is a. Struggle continues book. From day. To now. Use distance we want on aljazeera. Youre watching aljazeera thats weve got the top stories right now chinas Mass Testing Program and were on is underway the local Health Authority says more than 113000. 00 tests were carried out on friday theyre trying to prevent a 2nd wave of coven 19 more restrictions have been eased in thailand malls and shops are now allowed to reopen a nightly curfew has been shortened but a ban on International Flights has been extended for another month until the end of june. And brazil celt system is heading towards the brink of collapse as the number of infections continue to rise hospitals in Rio De Janeiro are at capacity and shortage of medical supplies. Some leaders in the worst hit nations initially dismissed the threat of the pandemic the death toll the us is approaching 90000. 00 that is the highest in the world despite repeated warnings of President Trump insisted the virus would not take hold there a march declared a National Emergency but has refused to take responsibility for any short. Hemmings and the response british Prime Minister Boris Johnson also played down the virus and shook hands with patients on a covert 1000 hospital ward he later became seriously ill the u. K. Has real was relatively late and imposing a lockdown or now has the highest death toll in europe britain is latin America Brazil part 3 is let americas worst hit country present her boss and also the krona virus is nothing but a fantasy encouraged antilock down protests and attacked governors who imposed restrictions and Vladimir Putin a was quick to close russias border with china but domestic lockdowns came late russia now has more than 270000 known cases the 2nd highest in the world Steve Clemons as an editor at large at the hill and the host of the aljazeera show the bottom line he explains why its taken some leaders more time to take action. All of these leaders in a sense ran against the establishment in their countries they ran against science they ran against universities they ran against the ministries and bureaucracies they were out there set up over generations to protect the public but also narrow has fired his last 2 Health Ministers so donald trump his critique anthony found it was world famous as one of the great carolla just who has helped knock back to the aids and others i think that the reason they did this is that they thrive on the notion that they and their supporters are victims and theyve been victims from the educated in society from science that has left them behind in their view and it challenges their my cheese mow their their their boss nature and that they would have to listen to someone else and this is created a real problem so i think thats part of that your World Health Organization is a bit different because it least in the United States part of the nationalism that donald trump has tried to describe nations now says im trying to assert is very disdainful of other countries of International Deals of International Institutions and they see the rest of the world as ripping off the United States as freewriting when the United States and theres a resentment and anger about anything attached to the United Nations so his critique of the w. H. O. Is part of this played nations nationalism and he does not understand
