destroyed after a tropical cyclone makes landfall in mozambique plus. thousands protest around brazil and demanding the impeachment of president bush so narrow over his handling of the covert pandemic. i'm german ash with sport at the 6 months ago until the take your lympics and while doubts remain as to whether it can go ahead during the pandemic organizers continue to insist it will happen. tens of thousands of people have defied freezing temperatures and the threat of arrest in some of russia's biggest anti-government protests in years they were demanding the release of kremlin critic alex and of ali who was arrested last week on his return from germany where he'd been treated for a near fatal poisoning more than 3000 people were detained including the valley's wife who was later released sort of reports. from the same eastern city of lagos stuck. with only simpletons faced off with police in subzero temperatures. the searches have denied permission for the demonstration. the but it didn't stop the crowd gathering to call for the release of the man leading russia's most prominent opposition movement. in the capital moscow tens of thousands could gather it was police using batons on the crowds so more force backed by protesters as a childhood freedom alexei navalny was was you know you among those detained wife you. apologies for the poor quality she wrote on her social media page very bad light in the police van was you know as much as president vladimir putin has attempted to play down relaxing of ollie's influence the arrest of one of russia's most prominent opposition leaders has only inflamed his supporters was on the law is being trampled on can an absolutely incredible man and this arrest is one of the most serious violations of human and civil rights in the russian federation but it will set a precedent that could lead to the destruction of all our civil liberties. if the glove nigger away at the with him earlier in the week novelli had released a video alleging president putin was the owner of a 1000000000 dollar property on the black sea this was denied by putin spokesperson . one of only supporters corruption is a major source of my discontent and the constant crackdown on the movement is they say an attempt to silence and help it all but you know i just don't i'm fed up with keeping quiet we've been silent for too long and it's probably time to speak that's my position time to say that we have the right that we have the freedoms and that we have the desire to live in a completely different country. rather than our live only may not pose an immediate danger to president clinton's power but economic problems in the country are only going as is the discontent and some analysts believe the kremlin fear is the potential of a bella roost style mass dissent and the prospect of more protests. sunny out as. well as under god while i was out among the protesters in moscow earlier near the prison when of ali is being held. we are standing in one of the side streets of the prison where not only held the well this prison is actually just around the corner but we cannot approach him because the police is pushing everyone from from there it sealed off that approach and also minutes ago there was a group of protesters a fairly young ones these ones are and they would be carrying the police and then trying to run away from it and take some other side streets so these are the last part of the 2 days the massive brought this as i say the group is fairly young and they are chanting names to putin and that he's a teeth and freedom to me which is fairly close by at this point of the protests have been going more than 8 hours now the arrests continue as long as there. are so far more than 2200 people have been arrested across russia and in moscow almost 900 to with a growth of that number growing there are calls to continue this brought this fall or the next week and they are coming from very close associates. with this growth is this show that there is a big number of people that they are not backing up there for sure against not only his arrest but also against the russian president vladimir putin and the power he presents when a man shook off his own long time ally of alexei navalny and the executive director of his anticorruption foundation he was granted political asylum in the u.k. in 2015 after leaving russia and he joins us now from london thanks very much indeed for being with us. whether you're surprised by the scale of the protests. we'll hope that a lot of people would come and there are many factors that worked against big turnout the russian winter in some cities where protesters came out it was minus 30 of course there's such not distancing requirements and increase in the repression there call this question on over the last 2 years yes the protesters well we've seen the numbers that were similar to the biggest protests that were happening in russia in the last 5 years now the authorities there their crime in press secretary has described your investigation that was published on you tube as a cut and paste job and a lie. was it deliberately provocative i think it's really factual and it's narrative speaks for itself over 70000000 people have viewed it on you tube by now which is less than a week that's an unprecedented number it's all collaborate it bye bye bye bye sources just think about it it's a 1300000000 there mansion that nobody claims that they all or live in and it's protected by the russian security services this is something i'm president and he there are reports from insiders who went in what in building this that this was built to do so we don't have any doubt that this was intended for the russian president here so do you think the russians have actually come out to protest more because they're angry about allegations of corruption in terms of supporting their money what do you think the balance is there. of course it's a combination people are outraged that and that's it now and it was poisoned and by state security services and went through turned to his home country he was illegally arrested in a chorus that was really a more career of justice of course people are not happy about that and the mali has become the symbol of fighting this rampant corruption that is corrupting russia and his latest investigation his latest video out is has really been more spiral fall in our history it does we need to direct it to put it to the president you mentioned him going back to it to russia he could have taken a safer option and not returning as a fact but he chose to go back to galvanize people and it is his life in danger that's true but there is a really. there wasn't really an adult turn to for him it's in his character it's. the work of his life is a russia has done nothing more of those on in there sure a lot that. he would go back but of course that dates a lot of courage and not that many people would do that in his place so i can are near the fire in the blood in him and there's been a reaction from the u.s. state department calling on the russian authorities to release those who've been detained and criticizing their what they call harsh tactics against protesters how much do you expect the bryden presidency and it and the way it reacts to russia to change what putin and the government do. it remains to be see you. i really. i'm glad that there was a big international outcry for us with respect to the name of kim. and now with a lot of old at the moment. i hope that the new u.s. administration is more adamant stance but really. we do arms law how much it will in the local asians in the kremlin and that emir sugar thank you very much indeed for taking time to talk to us not just are appreciated thank you. as for the hundreds of homes have been destroyed in mozambique after tropical psycho an enemy's made landfall early on saturday at least one person was killed and 50 houses destroyed when the storm crossed northern madagascar it intensified into a cyclon as it made landfall on the beara coastline in mozambique a storm is expected to continue moving inland but should lose strength as it dumps rain across him barboy east and south africa and botswana or the bear a coast line was devastated by a psycho in die less than 2 years ago heavy rain and strong winds battered areas did not fully recovered from the previous storm 200 millimeters of rain reported with another 100 millimeters expected at least 3000 people will move from boozy district in the east femi to mina in johannesburg has been tracking the cycle and and has this update. in the area of prior nova embarras specifically this is an area where people live in informal settlements homes made from plastic sheeting corrugated iron it appears that hundreds of those homes have been destroyed by the psych loan and those people are now looking for shelter in places like schools where they isn't this a seriously adequate provision to take care of these people to look after them a few 1000 people have been relocated to places like schools to areas that are low lying so that people can be kept safe from the flood waters but the concern is that those flood waters are expected to continue over the next 72 hours and in areas outside of barrow like boozy which were severely impacted 2 years ago with is barely been a recovery from psycho die once again we're seeing a very difficult dangerous situation there at a point now where aid agencies where workers can't get out to this area be they can only reach boozy by boat and at this point even that seems impossible so there's a lot of concern around the capacity of the aid agencies as well as the government to how people we know that the national disaster institute has said about half a 1000000 people could be impacted whereas the international federation of recross has said that could go up to 1000000 people so so far we understand potentially devastating scenes coming out of mozambique and a lot of concern about how and where people will be kept safe and of course aside from the flood that they're experiencing there is a concern around the spread of disease as people don't have adequate shelter. coming up on this news hour from london locked down for 10 months the argentine city where people say they've been dragged away in the middle of the night and held in isolation. 10 years after the arab spring uprising another 7 days of protests across china zia. and the organizers of next month's fifa club world cup play out details of what teams and founders can expect in the qatar bubble. thousands of people in brazil have joined caravans in several cities demanding the impeachment and ousting of president joy are both so narrow he's seen his biggest drop in approval yet mostly because of his handling of the pandemic polling shows at least 40 percent of respondents rate his administration as terrible agree increasingly angry at the slow rollout of a coronavirus vaccine as the 2nd worst hit country experiences a brutal wave of infections and deaths only and i care for joins us live from rio de janeiro and want to tell us about the scale of these protests against on araa. well they've been small protests but they've been in many cities not just one and yes there is an increasing anger in brazil because smaller countries close to brazil like argentina chile they started vaccinating before your there was a promise that all these that scenes they were would be 8000000 vaccines and then there was a delay 2000000 was has just arrived but were supposed to have arrived a couple of days ago besides there was a cult the whole total collapse of the health system in my analysis in the amazon and also now in in another northern state well the hospitals are full and there's no oxygen so yes there is anger against them out of but we also must take into account that have a great portion of resilience don't really blame him for what's going on they don't think the virus is his fault and many also are not taking measures to protect themselves are not taking to safety measures many people without masks. and people are out many times even when they are mad they're having more restrictions following even. and you mentioned some of the. arriving what's the plan for the rollout. well 500000 rights the nation's vaccines were already applied. it's a very big country there the rollout is expected brazil is expected to make its own ask vaccine. shared you know how where. the problem is that some ingredients to make the vaccine arrive from china and there's been a delay in the supply chain so these are some of the problems that brazil is facing the rollout began and what people are saying is that must continue because if you want to achieve the herd immunity you have to keep vaccinating you can't just start and stop. money thank you very much. argentina is more than 3 weeks into a mass vaccination drive using russia's sputnik the vaccine it was one of the 1st countries in latin america to impose a lockdown to fight code 19 but while most of downs have been lifted thousands of people in the northern province of formosa a still living in isolation to risible reports from what is ari's. and isolation center in the province of formosa in northern argentina. people here say they are being held here against their will. this man says nobody is taking care of them they're careful that yes the radio here we've had children here for 22 days and no specialists or doctors have seen them please stop lying people are going to find out the truth about what's happening in this province. reports indicate there are over 3000 people in isolation in the province argentina was one of the 1st countries in latin america to impose a quarantine to prevent the spread of covert 19. but when most lock downs around the country have been lifted the lockdown in formosa has remained in place and broken since march last year human rights groups are questioning why people are taken to this isolation centers and the treatment they receive once they're there there are reports of people being picked up in the middle of the night in their homes and taken with their families and that's why human rights organizations are asking provincial authorities to ease this restrictions immediately foremost us government says it's radical measures are necessary to fight coronavirus the government claims only 6 people have died of covert 1000 in the province and that their policy has been successful. but many for most i do not agree on thursday local legislator was detained when she went to an isolation center to demand people to be allowed to do the quarantine at home. we spoke to her once she was released. new formosa feels like we're 2nd class citizens because the rise that people normally have are not even respected here we don't have freedom to move we don't have personal freedom people are kept here in isolation for ever the schools are controlled by the police the and no one until is what psychologists doctors that's not happening human rights are violated the centers are guarded by the police people are not allowed to go inside their belongings are checked by the police it's like a detention center. indigenous communities have also claimed they're being discriminated against for members of the indigenous group were detained on thursday for protesting against local authorities for the most or is one of the poorest provinces in the country and has been ruled by the same man for 25 years old world over was it jillian's fran who many accuse of controlling the province like a personal fiefdom argentina is struggling to contain the spread of covert 1000 over 40000 people have died in the past year and while many here justify extreme measures others say forethought have gone too far. when a sadist. vaccine maker seneca has cut its promise delivery to the e.u. blaming supply chain problems the company has reduced its offering by 60 percent for the 1st quarter of the year only $31000000.00 doses are now expected to be delivered it's a severe setback to the block's vaccination program which is already suffering are to find a biotech slowed surprise step fashion in amsterdam has more on the vaccine shortage . well these delays are real setback for the 450000000 residents here in the european union the e.u. has a coordinated tax of nations strategy for its 27 member states but it has been criticized for starting to late compared to the u.k. and the u.s. and only 2 vaccines have now been approved it's pfizer biotech and modena and now these 2 teens are getting really scarce in countries like germany but also it's a new spain and poland there are real delays with vaccinations and some states have already stopped altogether giving jobs to its residents but the companies are really struggling at the moment pfizer biotech is building new production facilities in germany about also an out of places to keep up with this enormous demand and the other side bag is that astra zeneca that most come to see are in the u. e.u. has put most of their money on they have ordered millions of these vaccines and now because says it has problems in its production line and 60 percent less will be delivered after the vaccine will be approved and here in the netherlands for the 1st time since world war 2 a curfew will be imposed on people here starting at 9 pm at night lasting until the early morning and there's a lot of concern about the very end coming from the u.k. but also from brazil and south africa so also starting today no flights from the u.k. are allowed in here neither from south africa and south america so a lot of concern about rising numbers here in the u. while these vaccines a lot of people were very optimistic that that could be the end of this whole pandemic that might have been far too optimistic. the british medical association is calling on the government to shorten the gap between the 1st and 2nd doses of the pfizer biotech vaccine the u.k. extended the maximum weight for the 2nd dose from the 3 to 12 weeks to get the 1st dose out to as many people as possible but the b.m.a. says that's difficult to justify as of saturday at least 5800000 people had received their 1st dose of a vaccine the u.k. also recorded 1348 coded 19 deaths and more than 33000 new infections. corona virus cases in the united states have been steadily falling throughout january but the world's worst hit country still reporting almost 4000 deaths a day health officials are warning new variants 1st identified in the u.k. brazil and south africa may trigger a surge of cases at the same time as the country is seeing a shortage of vaccines nearly 25000000 americans have been diagnosed with covert 900 so far and more than 414000 people have died. the veteran u.s. talk show host larry king has died at the age of 87 are to be hospitalized with code 19 it was admitted earlier this month in california after testing positive king had medical problems in recent years it treating diabetes and heart attacks is broadcast career spanned more than 6 decades to 25 years he was the host of cnn's larry king live interviewing politicians and celebrities u.s. senate majority leader chuck schumer has called on the justice department to investigate allegations that former president trump had plans to replace the acting attorney general with someone more amenable the new york times says the then president considered pushing out jeffrey rosen and installing a different justice department lawyer who would pursue his unfounded election fraud claims in a tweet schumer called the plans unconscionable let's cross now to rosen jordan in washington d.c. so what impact might all this have on trump's impeachment trial in the senate was. well it's probably going to give the democrats in the senate who now have power more incentive to push for a conviction of donald trump the former u.s. president the article that outlines this alleged plot to replace the acting attorney general with someone who apparently was willing to do donald trump's bidding and basically try to find a way to overturn the outcome of the november 3rd election is something that touch up schumer the new majority leader calls untenable unconscionable and raises serious questions about what he suggested would be an act of sedition undermining a legitimate election and so you can expect that there's going to be a real push now to try to not just hold this trial starting february 8th but to push for a conviction the bar is high you need 67 senators to vote for conviction but given that this seems to be something that allegedly would go directly to undermining the election it might be possible to get more republicans who would be needed in order to get this conviction and we've also learned that a man has been charged have a threats to assassinate democratic congresswoman and examined as well can tell us about that. well the justice department has sworn out a complaint against a man from dallas texas his name is garrett miller he apparently was on his social media accounts all day on january 6th showing himself inside the u.s. capitol and then afterwards not only bragging about what he was doing inside the capitol but then saying on twitter allegedly assassinate a c. and in the complaint that was brought out late on friday the f.b.i. agent who was investigating this behavior basically said that this is one of the reasons why garrett miller should be charged with among other things interfering with the operation of congress violating a security protocols and certainly saying something such as assassinate an elected member of the government while those are all felonies and so all of that is why this man is now going to be brought into the federal prosecution will system and will face these charges certainly the congresswoman herself basically said you know on twitter on friday you know it's it's not surprising she had been on instagram about a week and a half ago saying that she was fearing for her life during the events of january 6th and now this this criminal complaint seems to bear the congresswoman's fears out reason jordan thank you very much indeed the u.s. state department is reviewing whether to keep the new terror group designation given to yemen's who she revels and blacklisting was a parting move 5 a trump administration humanitarian groups a concerned it would it could impede vital aid deliveries in iran back to the rebels took control of yemen's capital sanaa in 2015. saudi arabia says it's

that's the remains of the storm the next massive cloud came through central europe does not provide the same wind but it will provide a certain amount of snow all the way from austria through germany and eventually the southern baltic then coming in behind the next frontal system with a north westerly breeze too it's cold air will bring a band of snowfall of by a few showers and when always cold reaches the warmth of the med or the adriatic you get stormy weather this particular effect croatia and the high ground just inland throughout the baltics so luxembourg shows that incoming front as evening snow on sunday that it blows through temps just as much the same at night it gets colder by choose day this picture on monday though and you know it is still raining already want to give of the coast of croatia last night in the balkans everywhere else is looking pretty similar it's not quite as stormy in spain or portugal are there but if you look at split and that is coastal part of

administration as terrible. china has now reported upwards of $100.00 new daily coronavirus infections for more than 10 days in a row is the worst surge in cases the country has seen since march testing has been ramped up in parts of the country for february's lunar new year holidays that's when hundreds of millions of people are expected to travel to visit their families once exactly a year since the world's 1st coronavirus knocked down began in one and life in the city is largely back to normal the bulk of the nearly 5000 coronavirus deaths reported by china were in will happen since restrictions were lifted in april the city has been mostly free of further outbreaks but residents say they're still recovering from the impact of the pandemic and the 76 day lockdown could where ya know. you know there has been an impact for sure it's a big blow for restaurant owners because there is much less business people are scared to come to restaurants like before restaurants used to be packed full coronavirus now there are restrictions on how many people can sit on one table and how many tables can be used in a restaurant you would say to you soon see them using the pandemic has not been eliminated yet there's still the possibility of a reemergence and it said that we should take good precautions if there's an outbreak in other places we'll do our best to help them just like how they help to handle i hope we can get through this difficulty together because we're all chinese . in hong kong thousands of people have been ordered to stay at home and lock down is the toughest pandemic restriction imposed on the territory so far it affects a densely populated district that accounts for half of all new coronavirus cases over the past week on kong has been struggling to contain an outbreak since november adrian brown is in the town district and explains why it's been hardest hit by the virus. well this is something the hong kong government probably wanted to avoid locking down one of the most densely populated neighborhoods in the city but the tape and jordan areas have been seeing very high infection rates during the past week to 10 days those infection rates running up between 70 to 100 a day so now over the weekend medical workers are going to be testing tens of thousands of residents who live in these pretty decrepit buildings you can see behind me and that's possibly one of the reasons why the virus has been spreading many people live in water basically subdivided apartments within a flood basically one room apartments where there's barely enough room for even a bed they share washing facilities toilet facilities kitchen facilities and government officials say they believe that the virus here has been spreading through broken sewage pipes now so far hong kong has recalled recorded about 10000 coated in fact. shouldn't since the outbreak began in january last year we've had more than $160.00 deaths but this is the 1st no lockdown up until now and of course the worry for many people is this lockdown might have to spread to other areas if we start to see infections rising in those areas. hundreds of protesters are back out in west jerusalem calling for prime minister benjamin netanyahu to step down israel's prime minister has been charged with fraud breach of trust and accepting bribes protests to be taking place for weeks with many saying netanyahu can't lead properly are facing corruption charges he denies any wrongdoing and purchase of continued into newsier for the 7th day in a row demonstrators are demanding social justice and jobs they say promises of a revolution after democracy was restored a decade ago have not led to a just society but a 3rd of she is young people are unemployed the government is brunt of the protests as vandalism and looting rights groups say about a 1000 people have been arrested in the protests so far. revenue is a journalist in the capital tunis who was out covering the protests earlier she joins me by skype thanks for being with us so there's a ban on demonstrations i understand at the moment why did the protest is go out anyway. today hunter and martian against inequality and the cold for employment and social injustice in the bargain but haven't you at the same time the police to try to block all of the even you but later there were clashes between the protesters and. the police but today we witness said that the protesters called not only for social demands but also for political demands today we heard the slogan of the revolution they are shunting dignity liberal change people want the fall of the rejean and i think this is quite different between the protests we so several months ago so today we are witnessing young people without political leaders without political political parties who took the street to do to make a message to the government they are feeling frustrated disparate and also abandoned by the government today i talked to many many young people who are aged between 20 and 30 years old they are feeling left behind by the country's leaderships let me give you an example for the economy the economic crisis today the gross domestic production to these there is around 21 percent the unemployment in tunisia is around 60 percent and it reaches 30 percent percent in some regions in the south and i guess serene and in. the poverty rate in tunisia is today around 15 percent so the situation is quite hard for these young people who are so frustrated who are saying that 10 years after the revolution nothing is known to me eventually that this young people is others the ones mainly out protesting or the other people as well. i would say that mainly young people today are so. people around age around 20 to 30 years old as i told you no political parties no political leaders but only a young people who who took the streets spontaneous usually i mean they they are they were in their rent encouraged by political. parties are political politicians that would say what do you expect these approaches to continue what sort of want to end it is them how much planning is there towards the movement i would say it will continue because the thing should and between the government and tunisia and is is raising specially with these health crisis today for example we heard that tunisia we know in part operation intervention these defense tracks instead of blacks in white unis in our weight think far gone admires blacks in the country choose to import some defense tracks so that's why i think the tension is raising i would say that in the next few days we will see another another demonstrations in other cities let me explain to you that the months are asians of today have been it not only in the capital tunis yet but also in some region in tunisia for example in gaza even qatari into so the tension is is quite raising today ok thank you very much indeed for dogs by those protests in tunisia thank you a recent survey found 2 thirds of palestinians don't trust the state judicial system and believe it's corrupt human rights defenders say the weak judiciary isn't turn strengthening a system known as tribal justice and is needed abraham report more and more people are using it to get justice for their family and friends. this gathering followed the killing of 4 palestinians in a street fight in call for a job it's traditional to hold these meetings after such incidents in order to restore peace in the community they're part of an informal tribal system that follows its own laws when peace is achieved courts usually minimize the phantom's but human rights groups see this undermines the official rule of law ramesh called it doesn't believe the state's court system is just 3 of her family members were killed in a quarrel and her water lost me. it's either us or them i don't care if we all die even if the case stays for generations will keep telling our children and their children what happened those responsible for the killings are now serving time in palestinian jails their families have been forced out of the village their houses have been set on fire not once but several times who will defend the tribal justice system say its help deter a renter. others argue that they do why only basic human rights still these tribes work under the umbrella of the palestinian authority more than 60 percent of the occupied west bank is off limits for the palestinian authority this makes it more difficult to arrest offenders and enforce court orders. of the stripes are limited to b.s. legitimacy continuity and popularity in some out of. the political system in our situation you don't have an army the protector drives can sometimes be faster and more effective than the state's courts they can put pressure on families as mohammed to now be knows only too well he was in an israeli jail when his father killed a man in 2009 isn't saw your family was forced to leave the village and he hasn't been allowed to return to his house since. yes there has been a crime if this means that a whole family will be punished for 15 to 20 years then we don't live in a country that respects itself 40 percent of palestinians trust the non-state justice systems some say the palestinian authority has failed to establish a strong judicial apparatus more than 2 decades after its stablish meant. there but he. the bank. it's been 2 years since for his role as national assembly leader declared himself interim president one god or still has the support of international community in turning new u.s. president joe biden but president nicolas maduro has consolidated his power and quite 0 is in danger of being arrested as out in america to see a new man reports. 2 years after being declared interim president biden israel's former opposition controlled legislature langlade those future and his freedom hang in a precarious balance. after taking over parliament this month following a widely contested election president legal last i'm a boodle appears to be setting the stage to finally make good on his threat to quote make why they all rot in prison you're good ok well we have our look at that but on the whole moment but i think the government is waiting for the right moment to make its move has been delaying its waiting for president trump to leave office but now the balances tips towards prosecutes inquiry don't if it doesn't go into exile the record of parliament has asked the supreme court to order why those arrest for alleged subversion and treason. but the new u.s. administration may make it as unadvisable as the previous one. and despite speculation to the contrary president joe biden has confirmed he'll continue recognizing wide all not only as in his will as opposition leader but as a to mainly symbolic interim president. as a clear warning to muddle by those ambassador to washington. was invited to biden's inauguration is a message for the venezuelan people. us will stand with the innocent people in their quest to restore democracy how free do you that now that donald trump is out why those arrest is imminent when. the political cost is what we need to raise our voices now an insider going to senate will vote for not right. why those hopes of overthrowing maduro by winning over the army with a massive popular uprising have failed so have 2 years of international sanctions that have added to the misery of ordinary venezuelans it's caused great all significant popular support yet he is still the most recognized opposition figure.

months ago until the taking of them picks several question marks remain as to whether they can go ahead during the pandemic is still not clear how organized this plan to get tens of thousands of athletes to take you or if fans will be allowed but the international olympic committee insists the games will happen we spoke to him pics historian jules boy cough he said last year the event should have been counseled and he hasn't changed his mind well if anything the last years shown that coronavirus is an even more deadly threat then we realized with athletes and spectators coming from around the world the olympics could easily become a disco pick coronavirus hot zone so with global public health in mind i still believe that cancellation is the wisest course while it's certain that sports can create an escape hatch from the grit and grind of daily life there is no escaping the fact that the coronavirus pandemic presented extraordinary challenge so choosing to press ahead with the tokyo games means creating a massive potentially extremely dangerous petri dish so for the sake of global public health i think the tokyo game should still be cancelled and hey it's not just me epidemiologists across the world as well as inside japan have wondered aloud why the games must happen under coronavirus conditions recent polls in japan show the public agrees a whopping 80 percent of those polled now prefer cancellation or another postponement we also spoke to associated press sports reporter stephen wade in a rainy take away and he explained why there's so much pressure on the organizers to go ahead with the olympics. the i.o.c. is a sports team it's been about. 5 or $6000000000.00 every 4 years most of it comes from t.v. and broadcast rights 75 percent they have to have these one for to go on if there are no olympics they have no income so that's why the i.o.c. is very careful they're going to happen and why they have to have them have the japanese state has invested $25000000000.00 in the games probably more they need to have them go and there's also since a saving and then another card is there to pay and would fail to hold these games in 6 months beijing has the winter olympics 6 months after i don't think that's a look at japan once japan wants to pull off these games and not see the stage in china so that's a really important factor and money as it often does explains a lot of things about these games. another big sporting event which is coming up next month is the football club world cup in qatar one team has pulled out but organizers have confirmed all of the other continental champions that will compete inside a bias a kill bubble 2 of the 2022 world cup stadiums will be used and a limited number of fans will all say bail out
