To you in a space thats already so fearful for so many africanamericans and im genuinely sorry this is not who we are this is not where we were about another disturbing video from los angeles shows a Police Vehicle excel orating into protesters knocking 2 of them down it then reverse that high speed nearly striking other people no one was seriously injured rob reynolds aljazeera los angeles ok so now when you look at washington d. C. With mike hanna his report on the protests there and the moves to crackdown on a far left group. Protesters once again gathered in the vicinity of the white house kept the distance away by layers of police and secret service officers. Invoking the name of the man whose death has sparked these nationwide protests here are 5 the president chose to assign responsibility for the violence that broke out in the past 24 hours singling out the predominantly left wing anti fascist movement known as anti. The United States he tweeted will be designated as a terrorist organization the problem is that there is no u. S. Law that would allow a group to be designated in this way and the American Civil Liberties union was quick to point out that any attempt to do so would raise concerns about the constitutional right to free speech. That a terrorist is an inherently political label that is easily abused and misused the attorney general subsequently clarified that the joint Terrorism Task force would investigate the violence focusing on whether any group including active was responsible. And washingtons mayor called on the president to temper the tone of his tweets i think that the president has a role to play nationally in calming. The the iraqis that we see in cities across america and i think at the least he has to not incite violence and thats what we would expect president ial candidate joe biden visited a protest site wearing a mosque he talked to demonstrators and then released this tweet urging the need to listen and whether intentionally or not including a picture of himself taking a knee in the manner of athletes in recent years protesting Police Brutality there were some isolated incidents of unrest particularly in philadelphia where a building was set alight and arrests were made. As the demonstrations continued into the night there were once again outbreaks of violence in various cities. Plains flickering a few blocks away from the white house in what police described as renewed vandalism. For the marring what had been a day of largely peaceful protests. Mike hanna aljazeera washington. And finally john hendren now with the latest from the epicenter of the protest movement in minneapolis. This all began with a peaceful protest as hundreds of protesters filled highway 35 here in the middle of minneapolis then lines of police form and they chased the protesters off and now theyve marked a line across here what we dont know is whether they will continue to push forward when they do they fire that tear gas and those rubber bullets and send protesters running. But. These are been aggressive measures and theyre trying to clear the streets it was successful one night earlier in the police are hoping that you would again tonight that were all here because we witnessed something truly disgusting happening was and im sure youre fighting for justice and when i go home its really sad to watch the news then i cry and i get really upset about everything thats going on right now in the world this is are being burned down they have assurances so really doesnt mean that the libyan burned down to make a point theyre going attention of the big corporations will hang out with these people who make laws all hang out with these judges and these people make this stuff happen to fall down a guy gets attention we mess up is up. We austin up together not just black people theres not just a black lies matter to this standoff between demonstrators and Police Continues here in minneapolis in houston the mayor says the Memorial Services for george floyd will be held there where he was raised meanwhile now that one officer has been arrested and charged with murder demonstrators in the street say they will stay here in the streets until all 4 of the officers involved in the arrest of george floyd are arrested and charged with murder. The folds of Gerald Malloy whos a Democratic State senator in South Carolina his hope is that these protests will actually lead to some real change. Well i think that whats happening i think that the people there are pros test testing is generational issues that have been happening in that they believe as relates to people of color and they think that there is disparities in the treatment of many individuals and so it has sparked outrage the folks that are really trying to protest really the initially theres a lot of innocent protest folks are doing it because they want to make certain that they can Pay Attention to the injustices theyre being present within theres a very very small percentage of those individuals that are that are taking it and making it get out of hand and so this is a another day here in america that we really not necessarily proud of what we have a person of color that was my words murdered. In minneapolis and in what has happened now is that people of yes we can go out for injustice to some other news and china has hit back at the u. S. Over its decision to end preferential treatment for hong kong because of beijings new security law beijing says any attempts by the americans to harm chinese interests will be met with firm countermeasures hong kong has until now enjoyed special trade and trade travel privileges with the u. S. Not which the u. S. Has not given to the mainland choose their president on a trump announced he would end that permission ship so lets check in with katrina a year in beijing for more on this one firm countermeasures from china katrina any thoughts on what that might be. Well so far we dont have any details but Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesperson jen said that china would hit back if the Trump Administration followed through on its threats he also used some of the Strong Language that weve come become accustomed to hearing from chinas Foreign Ministry these past few months when it comes to the u. S. He said that the u. S. Should be reminded that hong kong is part of china and that beijing had the right to make what he called improvements to defective National Security legislation in hong kong he also said that any intervention from the u. S. Would be a violation of International Law and International Principles when it comes to diplomacy and he said that this would any changes to the trading status with hong kong would also undermine the bilateral relationship the wider relationship between china and the u. S. Potentially the trading relationship and any trade negotiations between the 2 between china and the u. S. He said that this would also harm u. S. Companies doing business with china and in hong kong now the trumpet mr asian has also made other threats not just do with trade its also for him to curb Chinese Student visas when it comes to studying in areas which the u. S. Considers sensitive to security now john legend said that during this would amount to what he called Racial Discrimination and he also said that it would be political prosecution he also made a job at the u. S. Decision to withdraw from the World Health Organization saying that this was just another example of the u. S. Pursuing unilateral ism and what he called an addiction to quitting from the u. S. Now so no details nothing for we suspect that beijing is really waiting to see what the trumpet mistrusting comes up with before making their own plans to hit back but surprisingly the Financial Markets in hong kong and china were broadly up in fact in in hong kong the hang seng saw the biggest gain that its seen in about 3 months and this is because analysts say that they didnt hear any of any sanctions or any trade barriers that would. Put forward by the u. S. So investors here certainly seem to be quite optimistic of the now that when it comes to any response to National Security legislation for hong kong that the Trump Administration pocket is louder than its bite ok thank you katrina youre in beijing. The news ahead india eases more of its knock down restrictions even as the covert 19 heads rinds.

Developing story out of iran teheran says it expects the release of an iranian scientist from a u. S. Immigration jail within days. Has been pleading for his release after 4 wakes after contracting corona virus in detention more on this one same as arriving in tehran bring us up to date. Well kemal just as anything regarding the United States in iran this is a very complex story nothing simple of course the reason this is significant now is because the Foreign Ministry has said once again that this iranian professor the scientist and the Material Sciences professor will be released in coming days they said something similar last month in the 1st week of may now mr scary was working at a university in the United States he was arrested on charges of visa fraud wire fraud as well as stealing trade secrets last month earlier last month he was acquitted of those charges in a federal court in the district of ohio and he was said to be released shortly there after but in custody of the customs and Immigration Department in the United States the contract it took in 1000 which may have been one of the reasons for this delay but american officials at that time also said that iran was delaying his repatriation back to his home country in a the u. S. Deputy secretary of Homeland Security Kenneth Cuccinelli was quoted as saying that we have 11 citizens 11 iranian citizens here in custody weve been trying to send back to iran but iran is causing delays irans government should charter a plane so we can send them back so there is this hanging there is this back and forth that continues to go on there are believed to be 20 or so iranians in u. S. Custody in iran there are least 5 american citizens including a former navy veteran mark white who was arrested in july 29000. 00 for supposedly coming to iran to visit someone a woman who with whom he seemed to be in a romantic relationship with and there seems to be some talk of a possible swap of people going on before the release of this professor but the iranian government continues to say this that we have not heard that that is the case from the u. S. Side from the u. S. Side it seems to be more functional it seems to be a matter of course happening with the release of this professor what did the iranians offer in return and then you talked about whats going on but is there more on the table so dales. Well that is that is really the 1000000 dollar question here when it comes to iran in the United States any sort of negotiation that happens usually happens behind closed doors but weve seen this policy of trying to use people trying to use people in custody in iran as bargaining chips this is a very common tactic that iran has employed in the past of course the 1980 u. S. Hostage crisis that culminated in the release of prisoners iran got funds released iran got a lot of political current collateral as well so it often yields all kinds of political and material concessions for iran it also shows iran to be a major player a big country a strong country design an opportunity for iran to project power similarly in 2016 when least 10 Navy American Navy Personnel were taken off the shore off the coast of iran and held in custody they were released which was an opportunity for iran to project power and gain some political collateral in 2009 if 3 american hikers were also detained in iranian custody for 2 years and they were released when oh mon intervened diplomatically and many see that situation between 20092011 when with the help of diplomats to negotiate the release they see that as a precursor to the talks in 2015 that helped iran score the nuclear deal which was then of course the United States pulled out of it in 2018 i think you started by saying things are always complicated with the u. S. And iran to thank you
