Announces the arrest of a u. S. Based dissident tonight accuses of masterminding a terrorist campaign. And is for the owner of the Milwaukee Brewers says the Major League Baseball season could be canceled the warning comes as more games are postponed due to players testing positive for corona virus. Welcome to the news are we begin with the latest developments on the krona virus pandemic as the global number of infections continues to accelerate and so does the global race to find a vaccine russia has announced that mass vaccinations could begin as soon as october the Health Minister gave no details about the vaccine to be used it is not clear if the treatment produces an immune response in berlin thousands of people are taking part in different rallies sparked by coronavirus restrictions the rallies for and against the measures germany has been easing its lockdown since late april but social distancing rules remain in place and japan is facing a resurgence in cases confirmed a record 472 corona virus infections on saturday and the capitals governor says a citywide state of emergency may have to be imposed its a step thats already been taken in okinawa where an outbreak is suspected to originated at a u. S. Military base there it gather is a viral a just an lecture at Lancaster University in the u. K. He says although russias vaccine is still shrouded in mystery its likely to be similar to the war being developed by scientists at oxford university. Russian vaccine its been reported by a task news Agency Official news agency in russia is an advice based vaccine so thats a Similar Technology to the one thats been developed teter office with a university which is known as the child docs vaccine so a child stands for chimpanzee and in a virus or expert the basic principle is that chimpanzee advice doesnt produce any pathology in humans or you can be infected with that and have no symptoms at all and then thats genetically engineered so an attack protein from the virus that you want to me nice against is inserted into the chimpanzee identified as genome and then your immune system when it sees this recount and vaccine bias will produce lots of antibodies to the protein that you want to immunize against and in the case of covert 19 that. Protein which is the protein on the surface of the of the covert 1000 virus in order to give the immune system a good chance to produce lots of antibodies against that and hopefully produce resistance and who is that see the vaccine so although we dont know anything about the details of the russian vaccine the fact that theyve announced it is identified a species suggests to me at least that its going to be a fairly Similar Technology to the oxford want to move probably work in the same way those have all the sudden the various protests happening in germany cain joins me now from the couple of dublin tony people actually that seems like quite a lot. Well if you believe the police so then its something around about 17000. 00 the organizers would certainly contest that and say they believe many more people are here but its worth putting into perspective what the organizers hoped would be the attendance here earlier in the week just gone they were talking about having half a 1000000 people on the streets that number was then starkly revised down over the last 48 hours or so with people suggesting perhaps 2022000 people would be here certainly the citys political leaders were under the impression that would be the number as i say the police right now saying 17000 people are on the streets in the largest of the demonstrations but its worth making the point that something in the order of about 83 different groupings of people have suggested them or that theyve been the suggestion that 83 different groups over the course of today would be on the streets of berlin and its not just people who are opposed to the Safety Measures brought in by the government here in germany to combat coronavirus there are others who are opposed to the demonstrations by the coronavirus protesters taking place so the police have about 1100 officers on the streets of berlin trying to keep these rival groups of demonstrators apart and there are many closures street closures in central berlin in coming to the studio and broadcasting from now i have to run the gauntlet as it were of closures and that sort of thing the demonstrators mostly are all peaceful theyre mostly good humored but there are certain groups clusters of people who are wearing the sorts of rightwing paraphernalia associated with the extreme right in germany i must say its a minority who are doing that but so far at least Peaceful Demonstrations and the police to working hard to keep them separate from each other of course those that are in attendance as you say have very strong positions that theyre holding with regards to where they stand on coronavirus but whats the general reaction not just to these protests but the ongoing restrictions of coronavirus the general public across germany. People need to remember that one of the things that ministerial circles are really worried about not just here in berlin at a federal level but right across the country and all the states that make up this federal republic are really worried about the 2nd wave of corona which theyre trying to stop ironically some of the protesters who have come to the center of early into the Brandenburg Gate to the one today in london one of the perhaps the most iconic street in berlin perhaps in germany to saying that they are the 2nd wave of coroner they are the people who are representing that unspoken majority who dont like these these measures about corona but the points is generally speaking most people have been understanding of the need to have these precautions social distancing and that sort of thing and one final thought also so many of the measures that were brought in at the start of the pandemic which were perceived as being really long gone generally speaking you dont have to wear masks in many places right now so when you see the people on the streets demonstrating against coronavirus precautions many people wonder what exactly are they demonstrating against indeed doublet cain in berlin thank you. But a break only germanys island of okinawa is being blamed on u. S. Troops the but the force commander says theres no evidence of transmission to the local community the bottom line is that our procedures for u. S. Forces are stringent they are effect and what we have seen a growth in cases in a couple of our bases have been managed they have been contained and there has been absolutely no connection there that has been proven to show that there has been any spread from the costers on the bases to the local community the local person is the president of the shingle news agency in tokyo he says theres been an explosion of cases. The rise in covert making cases across the country has been kind of steady for some weeks and it just hasnt and that trend upward trend has just continued on and on and now were getting into more crisis levels in the case open now as specifically the there is concern that perhaps the reason why its hitting that island particularly strongly is because u. S. Forces particularly u. S. Marines have been able to come in and out of japan without going through immigration controls and until very recently without any covert 900 tests under the status of forces agreement but this link is strongly suspected by both the local government and the residents and now theyre going to have to go into a more sort of a soft lockdown stereo in that prefecture thats for the spike its really been coming steadily so it isnt you know it isnt one thing it is sort of something which has been spiraling slowly out of control over weeks and weeks and one key thing to understand is that the National Government has opposed any sort of lockdown or any sort of restrictions on peoples movements to even promoted a National Tourism campaign in the midst of the pandemic so what you have going on here is a lot of local governors including governor yuriko toy quite kate of tokyo who are essentially acting against the will of the National Government which doesnt want any sort of restrictions at all the leader of a south Korean Church has been arrested accused of concealing and under reporting coronavirus cases prosecutors say that leak meant he had put the governments antivirus responds the 88 year old denies the accusations and says he cooperated with the Health Department well that a 3rd of south koreas infections have been linked to this church. Greece has lifted its ban on cruise ships which will now be able to dock with some restrictions theyll be allowed to port in 6 major areas of prayers for roads and call food but only if all of the passengers on board have been tested negative for covert 19 the industry has been one of the worst hit by the pandemic most companies counseled months of trips and many wont restart until next year several of already declared bankruptcy governments including the u. S. And u. K. Are still advising their citizens against Cruise Travel but some people are afloat in norway passengers of the rolled up in certain ships are being told to self isolate after 4 crew members were admitted to hospital with the virus douglas ward spent 17 years at sea and is the author of its cruising on cruise ships 2020 he says the industry is well set up to introduce measures to make it safe the good thing about cruising is that they can change the destination for you every single day so you can visit 2 or 3 ports to 3 islands in a single cruise and you can visit for high destinations so i think actually cruising is good and theres so much pent up demand the danger i think at the moment is where. Companies with large cruise ships. Try to enter the orient of the market to quickly. But you know i think theres so much tomorrow especially for cruising next year and it looks like looking that greece doesnt have a big cruise industry at the moment its been its been waning over the last few years there are less companies now operating out there doing the thing is that the cruise industry has all the protocols in place and all the enhanced sanitation increased air conditioning and all the prescreening so it should be easy to trace. If anyone comes down with the virus. However just like any other place whether its an ice skating rink or its a golf course or if its an environment where you have in detainment and tracing everybody its a bit of a bit of a labor job but one of the long term effects of the pandemic will be limiting Career Prospects for young people they fear that opportunities will be damaged for years to come reports. A crisis that is on the brink of erupting from not down to rising unemployment young people all around the country are facing the worst prospects in decades the onslaught of the pandemic on the economy has turned the Health Crisis into a Financial One with many wondering how long they will have to pay for time to put some dont into your head about what will i do often the best you know will i be able to get a job or stuff and then what can you do a body just do we tell you we have to do if as ahmed is in his twentys and runs a Community Sports mentoring service in leicester he was supposed to resume work when the city went into a 2nd lockdown unable to do so he fears for the future of his business and the younger people he helps fund to because a major issue because we cant Fund Activities that are going to do.

College and you need joy luck don youre not really letting it think your household is going to be accustomed to a fence where people really forgot to socialize when the acute lack of prospects is a ticking time bomb for whole generation of younger people 2 thirds of under 30 s are more likely to be laid unemployed than this scene is they also have fewer skills about disproportionately likely to be in insecure shops but even that kind of work which used to be readily available is now when doing. Work in the greater con to me and in the Services Industry has been ravaged since locked down working hours were cut as well Living Standards for many in such a short space of time. Those that invested in Higher Education are seeing opportunities drastically reduced on average there are 15000 graduate recruiting bacon sees a year in the u. K. This year and has gone down to just 3000 in the week leading up to june when you can pay your own year 80 percent fewer jobs are available to young people than were last year and so young people really are bearing the brunt of it and when we speak to them and we had a report that came out in may which was a young people in lockdown report it showed really high levels of anxiety amongst young people this is a predicament that shows little sign of improving any time soon the pandemic has exposed sharp inequalities and the lack of opportunities for young people is exacerbating them for generations locked down this will be the challenge of a lifetime sonny diagonal aljazeera london.

I think what we think our nation that like the president found it doesnt stop when he followed one in about the structural plan we can call it that your politics of information in the sense that information is. Strategic resource thats what a good source with National Security or National Security irrelevance in marseilles information can be used for anything that you advised this information weve seen that in the past but thats not necessarily the key is the x. The concern here is its about the information that we use personal information that we use when the use of us that we deal about them in a matter that political leverage a lot of military commanders like someone taking part in 9 National Negotiations so if this information becomes available to us policy that could have Strategic Value so that i think is part of the larger structural problem that weve seen all of these and i wanted to put it in into context that we have to ask us why not so the broader context with your politics of your politics of information as we have also
