In mexico. U. S. President Joe Biden is getting support from G7 Allies for a sweeping Tax Overhaul targeting multinational corporations. Great to have you along this hour. Thanks for joining me. We begin in the United States where were hearing from both sides of the debate after a federal judge threw out the Nations Firstever Ban on Assault Weapons. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says the ruling is deeply flawed and poses a clear and serious threat to public safety. Shes calls for Gun Reform Legislation to be passed immediately. The national Rifle Association is praising the Judges Decision calling it well reasoned. But victims and survivors of Gun Violence across the country feel betrayed by the court. Heres paolo an definitely. Reporter californias ban on certain semiautomatic rifles has weathered decades of opposition, until now. San diego u. S. District judge Roger Benitez ruled to overturn it. Passed in 1989 on the heels of a School Shoot that left five children dead, the law touted as californias first Assault Weapons act. It established what an Assault Weapon is and made them illegal to buy or possess in california. This Week Judge Benitez ruled that ban unconstitutional and deprived lawabiding californians of weapons allowed in other states, weapons he compared to swiss army knives. If a swiss Army Knife had been used at pulse, we would have had a Birthday Party for my Best Friend last week, not a vigil. The weapons we are talking about dont come with a Nail File and a corkscrew in case you get lost In The Woods with a bottle of wine. Reporter in his ruling, Judge Benitez wrote, firearms deemed Assault Weapons are fairly ordinary, popular, modern rifles. The decision celebrated by progun groups, one suing the state of california in this case said that it was, quote, delighted with the outcome. But those calling for stricter Gun Laws are outraged. Frankly, the wording in that ruling sounds like its taken directly from an email or a memo written by the national Rifle Association. Reporter first nominated by president george w. Bush in 2003, Judge Benitez has a history of Butting Heads with the state of california in its efforts for stricter Gun Laws. 2017, he issued an initial injunction blocking the States Highcapacity Magazine ban. Eventually a federal Appeals Court upheld his ruling declaring the ban unconstitutional. Last Year Benitez blocked a law requiring Background Checks for ammo purchases, calls the law defective and a purchased on the second amendment. The state says it is appealing the latest ruling. Among the families of those last to mass shootings there is a sense of fear that what happened to their Loved Ones could happen again. Im upset for the loss of my daughter and all the other victims. But i am fearful because i know Theres Someone out there right now who will go out and buy an ar15 because of this judge and use it. This ruling, if it were to stand, would make our country a more dangerous place. Assault weapons, assaultstyle weapons, make our country a more dangerous place. Reporter polo sandoval, cnn, new york. Mexican voters are just hours away from the largest elections ever held in that country. More than 21,000 seats are up for grabs. Voters will be deciding on all the 500 deputies in the lower house of congress, as well as several state governors. Not to mention thousands of other state and local officials. Its also been one of the deadliest in recent memory. Since september, over 90 politicians have been killed. At least 35 of them were candidates in sundays elections. Matt rivers has more on that. Reporter here is abell morieta, a candidate for local office, crime his Number One issue. But just one day after filming this ad, he was dead. Shot and killed May 13th in broad daylight on a busy street while handing out campaign flyers. State authorities say morieta was deliberately targeted but dont know by whom. Suspects or not, though, its just further proof that In Mexico, politics can be deadly. From september of last year through may 25th, at least 88 politicians or candidates have been killed, according to mexican Consulting Firm Ad elect consultorres. Theyre part of the 565 politicians or candidates overall that have been targeted by some sort of crime, ranging from murder to assault to threats, the firm says. The government says it believes both numbers are far lower, though they dont say how they tallied their numbers. But still, it admits theres a problem. If this translator its a difficult time for these campaigns, were going to keep protecting them. Reporter Though Mexico has consistently failed to protect its candidates. Political assassinations have been a problem for decades but this year is particularly bad. I do think that this is going to be considered one of the most violent elections in mexican history. Reporter Security Suspects like Anna Maria Sal have a zar says politicians are killed for a number of reasons but it often involves Organized Crime. In many cases she says criminal groups want their preferred candidate in office, so they might target others they dont like. Especially candidates who make crime a centerpiece of their campaigns. Candidates that talk the way Abel Morieta speak clearly are going to run bigger risks. Reporter morieta was known for challenging criminal groups and drug cartels. As a private lawyer, he was also representing the lebarons, an outspoken family with dual u. S. Mexico Citizenship that lost nine members when they were murdered by Suspected Cartel Members In Mexico in late 2019. Tweeting shortly after morieta was killed saying in part, they have killed my defender what do we call this, the Rule Of Law . Do you believe he was killed because of his opposition to the cartels . Yes. He was always exposing them. To me, he died a martyr. Reporter authorities have not identified suspects or motive in Morietas Murder but the victim seemed to know he was at risk, saying this a few days before he died. He went on to say, the streets belong to the people, not to criminals. And some of those people turned up here to his funeral. They gave him a Standing Ovation as his coffin was led out. Matt rivers, cnn, mexico city. Were also watching a hotly contested president ial runoff in peru. Polls are set to open in a matter of hours and voters will be choosing between two candidates with dramatically different visions for the future. The election caps off a year of extreme political instability in peru, a country especially hard hit by the pandemic. The winner of Sundays Vote will be the countrys fifth president in five years. I want to talk more with senior latin american affairs editor, rafael romo. Rafael, lovely to see you r. Great to have you in the studio. Great to see you too. Its been awhile. Yes. Lets talk about mexico. This is the largest election the countrys having in its history. Why are they so important and whats at stake . The sheer size of the election, were talking about 93. 5 million people who are registered to vote. And its not only about that, but also about the fact that the whole lower chamber of congress is going to be renewed. Theres 500 deputies there. Were talking about nearly 2,000 local mayors and 15 governors in states across the country out of 32. So its just massive. Certainly, like you said, the biggest in mexican history. And the logistics to carry out something like that is just incredible. What is interesting, though, is that its becoming sort of a referendum of sorts on the president even though hes not on the ballot. Right. Its really all about one man. Youve got to remember the president is nearing the half of his single term in office. And in many ways, it is going to be a referendum on, has he done well . Has he been able to do good in terms of dealing with the pandemic . The answer is mixed. What about violence . Crime has only worsened under his watch. So a lot of people are having second thoughts about even those who vote for him, about whats going to happen. Really the Bottom Line is, how many members of congress his party is going to be able to get . Theres the accusation that he is has this idea of being an old, powerful president that is going to rule and that hes authoritative. And if he gets even more control of congress, he may turn out to be what his critics are saying, somebody who wants to rule the country with a strong hand. Lets talk about the violence. Absolutely devastating. 90 politicians have been targeted and killed in the leadup to this . That is almost astounding. I looked at the latest figures a couple of hours ago, its 91 now. Were talking about politicians and candidates. And out of the 91, its 35 people who were actually running for some position in this election. And then its not only that, its the fact that theres more than 700 crimes committed against candidates or politicians. This is only from september until now, when the whole process started. Were only talking about those involved in the current campaign. Im not even talking about whats happened to the rest of the country and how bad crime has been. And we were looking at some numbers the four months of the first year for the last few years and the number of homicides In Mexico has kept increasing. And how obviously does that impact voters when they go to the polls . Because its very much on peoples minds. You probably remember when President Manuel Lopez obrador was campaigning, he had this model almost saying he was all for hugs and not gunshots. A lot of people are beginning to wonder, okay, it sounded very good when you were campaigning, but look at the numbers. Look at the situation. Whats happening . Theres vast extensions of Mexican Territory where you get the idea that it is not the authorities that are in control but the Organized Crime groups. And part of the reason why these assassinations are so worrisome for some people is because you also get the idea that some of these candidates are being assassinated because the Organized Crime groups in a particular area dont like what they have to offer. And so theyre targeting them precisely because they can challenge their control in those regions. So its definitely very, very concerning. Lets also talk about peru. Polarized election. Familiar story. Two very different candidates. Yes. Talk us through what folks are having to choose between here. You know, the most memorable way that this race has been described is, peruvians are choosing the lesser of two evils. Thats what noble Laureate Mario barrios i s joseph said. If you go back during the candidates, there were 18 candidates. They ended up choosing castillo, a schoolteacher, a leftist. When you look at the party literature, they define themselves as marxistleninist. People started having second thoughts. On the other hand, keikfurimori, been jailed three times, ties to a scandal in latin america, whose father was president and is currently serving a 25year sentence for human rights violations. A lot of people are scratching their heads, not really knowing what are we going to do, who are we going to vote for . We interviewed a man in lima who said, this is choosing between sodom and gomorrah, we dont know where to go. Theyre going to have to choose somebody. Theyre going to have to choose somebody. The latest polls weve seen, theyre very close together. One thing that i should point out is that it seems like keiko has been gradually coming closer, especially she started more with the difference of more a doubledigit difference, and thats not to be the case anymore. Theyre essentially in a virtual tie. Rafael romo, always good to speak to you. Thanks for having me. The head of israels domestic Security Agency says there could be incitement of violence in the coming days. Its an unprecedented warning coming ahead of a pitched political contest for israels future. A new Coalition Government is trying to unseat prime minister benjamin netanyahu, whos held the job for 12 consecutive years. This week could change all of that. Oren lieberman joins me from jerusalem. Lovely to see you in jerusalem again. Benjamin netanyahu is nicknamed the magician in israel. For such a wily political operator, is there any way that he could outmaneuver the coalitions plans in the coming days . How certain is this deal . The growing assessment here is that it is increasingly likely, very likely at this point, that the coalition, the Change Bloc as its known, to oust prime minister benjamin netanyahu, is likely to succeed in the coming days. But its not certain yet. And though netanyahu has been outmaneuvered, he still has time and he still has room to maneuver. He still controls the speaker of the knesset, a member of his own party. They can try to extend that deadline a bit, sometime from this wednesday to the following monday, to try to work, find defectors in this Coalition Set to oust him. They only need one. Because this coalition to oust him is a bare minimum 61seat majority. And because of that, they have room, they have time, and theyre trying to pull away from that, find somebody who will defect, go back to netanyahu, and that will likely send the country to a fifth election. Without any sort of political resolution, more of the political Deadlock Weve seen to this point. Again, it allows netanyahu to remain in power. He still has room to work here but that time is running out. Tomorrow the speaker of the knesset will convene to announce there is a prospective Coalition And Theyll set a date for the swearingin of the government, either wednesday or monday is the expectation. The clock is ticking on what is to be netanyahus last few days in office if this coalition to oust him will succeed. Its certainly an unusual, potentially fragile coalition. The man behind it, yale La Bid. Tell me a little about him, specifically how hes been viewed in israel. Reporter if this coalition works or if it doesnt work, yair lapid, the head of the party, is likely a winner. Thats because he doesnt need to coalition to do something to be viewed as having been a success. His goal was to take out prime minister benjamin netanyahu, to remove him from office. Even if this coalition doesnt work, he has accomplished that, he has something to his name that he can take forward. That is not true for some of the other smaller parties within this coalition. It seemed like from his perspective that there was no hope of success during 11 days of fighting between Israel And Gaza where netanyahu seemed to have controlled or wrestled back control of the government. But La Bid kept working behind the scenes centered around one fact, netanyahu didnt have the 61 seats necessary for a coalition. That meant La Pead kept on working. There is one key element where netanyahu perhaps led to his own downfall. When netanyahu began negotiating with the aran Raham Party, he essentially centralized that party for the israeli political spectrum and that was a key aspect for lapid to make it possible to create this coalition to remove netanyahu from the prime ministers office. How much of the Game Changer is that . Not even just for this coalition, but going forward afterward . It is potentially an enormous Game Changer, but right now that is only potential. If this coalition falls flat, then the head of the Raham Party likely just committed political suicide. He doesnt have any achievements to take to the arab voting population, he hasnt improved his quality of life. It doesnt mean anything significant at that point. If this Coalition Holds, if hes able to show the arab community, look, for the first time in israels history, an arab being part of a Governing Coalition has brought you something, then it is incredibly significant, a milestone in israels political history. Does the Coalition Hold . One of the reasons it may well hold if it succeeds in being sworn in in the coming weeks is that if it doesnt work out, too many of these smaller parties may have committed political suicide. That for many of them is a very strong reason to hold it together. A fascinating time. Oren lieberman, great to have you there live on the ground in jerusalem, thanks so much. A massacre in west africa. We have a live report of burkina fasos worst militant attack in years. G7 Finance Leaders agree to a Landmark Deal aimed at preventing multinational companies from avoiding taxes. Later a look at some of the corporations that will be targeted. And its building up in your Septic Tank. Bubut monthly usage of ridx is scientifically proven to break down waste. Maintain your Septic Tank with ridx. Isnt it disappointing when your plugin fades . Once that freshness goes away, youre left thinking, okay. Now what . Febreze Fade defy plug works differently. Its the first plugin with builtin technology. To digitally control how much scent is released. To smell 1st day fresh for 50 days. It even tells you when its ready to be refilled. Upgrade to Febreze Fade defy plug. Buy Keno Faso in mourning following a horrific attack on a village. Officials say more than 130 civilians were killed when gunmen stormed the village Friday Night. David mckenzie is following the story from johannesburg. This is a horrific attack. What more can you tell us . Reporter the details are still a bit sketchy. Its certainly a horrific massacre that the president has called for this mourning. It happened on the border of niger Friday Night when militants stormed that village of suhan in the border regions. There was attacks on the civ civilians, they burned the market, as well as burning down homes. The secretarygeneral of the u. N. , antonio guterres, said hes outraged by the killing and calls for Member States to help end the violence in that part of the sahel. Buy keen that faso has seen an extreme uptake of violence in recent months, but this particular attack also reflects an earlier attack this year in niger in the northern part of that country when was the result of Reprisal Attacks from islamic militants on the community. So unclear at this stage, no real claim of responsibility. But the sheer scale of the Death And Destruction here, including children killed, has really shocked buy keen that Faso Nation that has been shocked by the Mass Displacement in that country and the increased violence. And why did this happen . You mentioned the sahel. Clearly there have been real concerns about rising attacks in the sahel region. Reporter there are at least two major militant groups operating in that region. One affiliated with al qaeda, the other with isis. Due to the political instability, including the recent backtoback coups in mali, stemming to 2013 when militants almost took over the entire country of mali, that violence has spilled over. Its expanded into those three countries are, niger, mali, and buy keen that faso, leading to mass killings, fighting, lack of control by the governments in the capitals to try to control that border region. Theres a substantial french military presence in that region, as well as the u. S. , particularly with drone operations. But that hasnt managed to stop the violence. Why this particular attack happened, its unclear at this stage. But this cauldron of attacks and violence in this area shows no sign of abating. As i mentioned, the last few months, its only increased. David mckenzie, thank you for that report live from johannesburg. Ahead on cnn, G7 Finance ministers agree to a Landmark Tax Deal targeting multinational companies. Why its a big win for President Biden. Donald trump returns to the stage and demands China Pay for its role in the covid pandemic. Weve got more on that speech by the former president. Welcome back to all of our viewers here in the United States and all around the world. Thanks for joining me. Im Robyn Curnow. U. S. President Joe Biden will head to the uk, belgium, and switzerland in the coming days. Its his first overseas trip since taking office. The White House says his visit will highlight Americas Commitment to restoring alliances. Hes also attending the G7 Summit to advance issues like economic recovery after the pandemic. In an oped for the washington post, mr. Biden elaborated on his agenda saying the u. S. Must lead the world from a position of strength. He wrote in part, as americas economic recovery helps propel the global economy, we will be stronger and more capable when we are flanked by nations that share our values and our vision for the future by other democracies. Thats the agenda i will advance at every stop. The president is certainly getting a lot of support ahead of his trip. On saturday, G7 Finance ministers put their support behind the Biden Plan to overhaul the global tax system. They agreed to back a global minimum tax of at least 15 on large multinational corporations. The group also agreed to large companies paying taxes where they generate sales and not just where they have a physical presence. Governments have long grappled over the challenges of taxing companies operating in multiple countries. The u. S. Treasury secretary calls the deal, quote, significant. Take a listen. Its complicated. This negotiation has been going on for i believe eight years. It stalled under the trump administration. And so i really consider this an historic achievement. And it is it shows that multilateral collaboration can be successful. Rana feruha knows all about this, Columnist And Associate editor at the financial times. Lovely to have you on the show. This agreement is a huge, huge deal, why . Oh, its some of the biggest economic News Weve seen really in months. Theres a number of things involved here. One, its a Foreign Policy question. For america, this is all about getting allies on board an economic agenda. The biden administration came in and said, look, weve got to have agreement about things like tax, trade, regulation of technology. And this is the first step towards getting that within developed countries. That gives the u. S. A leg up at a time when a lot of countries are looking to china and saying, maybe this is the model that we want. So thats Point Number one. Point number two is that the companies that are going to be most affected by this are the big tech companies, the platform companies, companies that can offshore profits very, very easily. Because theyre not dealing in widgets, theyre dealing in data, theyre dealing in intellectual property. Very, very easy to move that across borders. So getting to an international agreement about Baseline Tax for corporations could actually put a lot more money in the coffers of governments. What does it mean practically . Obviously no offshore Tax Havens as you say for a start. What will be the impact, how soon does this start . Years down the line no doubt. Well, yes. Thats where the rubber meets the road. Governments have to go back now and hash out all the details of this. But in an ideal world, it would set a floor under the amount of tax that large corporations have to pay. If you look at rising inequality its really about the fact that companies have taken the Lions Share of growth of the global economy in the last 40 years. Labor has taken far less. Thats led to nationalism, populism. Brexit, trump, all the things that were constantly talking about really come down to the fact that theres a big divide. And this could go some way towards bridging that divide. You talk about Foreign Policy and economic impact of this, particularly the global impact. But this deal is also about domestic politics for mr. Biden, giving himself political cover when it comes to his domestic agenda . Absolutely 100 . Biden is proposing the exact opposite of what former President Trump did. Trump came in and cut taxes on corporations. Bidens saying, you know what, corporations, were going to make sure youre paying your fair share so we can actually put forward this expensive 4 Trillion Infrastructure Plan and be able to say, hey, this is how were going to pay for it. So particularly in advance of the midterm elections and pushback from republicans, but also some even within the democratic party about how expensive that plan is. This will give him a lot of cover. If this comes off, this is a Starting Point . What comes next . Well, it could be the beginning of a broader transatlantic Deal Or Oecd deal around tech regulation, around trade. You know, we have a digital economy now that is very, very different from the economy t10 years ago, 20 years ago, which is when most of these rules around technology, trade, and tax were set up. Its really time to modernize those, and this could be the big pivot. Rahna, always good to speak to you, get your analysis, thank you so much. President bidens predecessor has returned for a rare appearance on stage. Donald trump was in North Carolina On Saturday where he attended a state republican Party Convention. Its the former president s first speech in three months and he wasted no time in taking shots at the current administration. Heres martin savidge. Reporter the former president returned to the stage here in North Carolina in a speech that was highly critical, especially in its beginnings of, of the biden administration. In fact, at one point the former president was saying, as we gather here tonight, the country is being destroyed before our very eyes. It had the familiar sound of a campaign speech, say, coming from 2020 in which Donald Trump was touting the accomplishments of his own administration while downplaying the current administration. Trump talked about things such as the development of the vaccine against the coronavirus, about a very powerful and strong and robust economy before the pandemic struck. And also about building a wall along the border. The president also seemed to be rewriting a lot of medical history when it came to the coronavirus. Not mentioning the hundreds of thousands of americans who died, many believe because of the improper handling of the medical crisis by his administration. But one of the biggest Applause Lines of the night was when trump, referring to the Stillunproven Theory that the virus leaked from a chinese lab, said that the u. S. And the world should demand reparations from china. But fauci has perhaps never been more wrong than when he denied the virus and where it came from. The time has come for america and the world to demand reparations and accountability from the Communist Party Of China [ cheers and applause ] we should all declare within one unified voice that china must pay, they must pay. Reporter trump ended his comments, though, returning to a very familiar theme. The idea that the election of 2020 was somehow stolen, which of course is not true. He continues to maintain that it was one of the greatest crimes of the century and that it is a wrong that must continue to be righted by republicans. Martin savidge, cnn, greenville, North Carolina. Mr. Trumps influence was also felt during the georgia republican Party Convention On Saturday. Take a listen as governor Brian Kemp takes the stage in front of a true mpfriendly crowd. [ boos and cheers ] lots and lotsf boos there for governor kemp. That was just a snippet. There was a whole lot more, as you could hear. He angered many trump supporters as you remember, last year when he refused to overturn the election results. Republicans at the convention reportedly passed resolution calling on mr. Kemp and other officials to, quote, repair the damage that has been done. While mr. Kemp dodged any formal voter disapproval, the Atlanta Journalconstitution reports his secretary of state, brad raffensperger, was censured from the party. Well hear from a Cnn Reporter on covids front lines as she talks about a deeply personal assignment about covering the pandemic in hardhit india, her Home Country. Welcome back. Im Robyn Curnow live in atlanta. So the u. S. Will donate about 750,000 Covid Vaccine doses to taiwan. A u. S. Senator, tammy duckworth, announced the donation during a visit to taiwan on sunday. Officials there are seeing a surge in cases, and theyve been asking the u. S. To share some of the vaccines it plans to donate to the world. Meanwhile, a troubling development in the uk as the country records more than 57,000 new cases On Saturday. That puts the sevenday rolling average for new infections at its highest since the beginning of april, as you can see from that graph. This comes as concern grows over the spread of the variant first identified in india. Amid all of that, Downing Street is responding to british media reports suggesting the final phase of the roadmap out of lockdown may be delayed by two weeks. A Government Spokesperson says no decision on step 4 has been made yet. Indias Covid Numbers may be headed in the right direction there. Its just reported more than 114,000 new daily cases, the lowest figure in 60 days. Sunday also marks the tenth consecutive day in which authorities reported less than 200,000 new infections. Make no mistake, india is still in the grip of a catastrophe, and reporting on the devastation that covid has wrought takes a toll on many of the journalists who are bringing us these stories. A personal account of experiences covering the pandemic in her Home Country on cnn. Com, i urge our viewers to read it. Thank you for joining us. I want you to tell us what you wrote and why its struck a chord for many people who have connected with it online. Reporter i think the fear here in india has been about the people ive written about. What if it was one of us on The Other Side whos lost someone very close to us . I think the response ive got is mostly from journalists as well as people who have lost their close Loved Ones. Its been very difficult to accept were losing people to covid19. Like one of the persons at the crematorium told me who lost her husband last month, she said its not covid19 i lost my husband to, its the lack of oxygen supply. In a way its been a lot of deaths that could have been saved, according to the people ive spoken with. Its been difficult to write this, but i cannot deny, its been highly ka Talking Aboutic for me. I did decide to share this with cnn because its something that a lot of journalists out there can also resonate with. They feel theyve seen so much in such little time, and perhaps the worst theyve ever seen in their lifetime. And thats what made me actually pen my thoughts down, robyn. Just give us a sense of what was that moment or that one particular person that really struck you and you think that you might never really forget. Reporter i think more than just one or two people that i spoke with and im still talking to, interviewing on a weekly basis to bring out the suffering and the pain here in india. Make no mistake, the second wave is still here in india, and were looking at, stare, i dont know what were preparing for, the second wave or the onset of the third wave. At a time like this, people have lost people so close to them. Childrens, wives, husbands, mothers, fathers. Even according to the indian government, 577 children have been orphaned between April 1st and may 25. These are just numbers just about coming in. So when i spoke to a mother, one of the people that i did meet at the crematorium, what really struck me was rather, let me say it was a dilemma i was facing, should i go up to him and ask for an interview . He just lost someone close to him. You do want to document these things, you must document them, the Pain And Suffering of your fellow countrymen, but you dont know where to draw the line. I decide to sit with him on that bench and i gave him his time. Thats when he opened up to a complete stranger, in this case me, he spoke about the last few days with his twin in hospital, his father who had just been discharged after being infected with covid19, and he was picking up the ashes of his mother at that point in time. Ive spoken to so many others. Recently, you know about the black fungus cases in india. Ive interviewed a 24yearold girl, parvia. We spoke yesterday, ive been keeping in touch with these people ive been interviewing. She called me up and she said, i dont have enough vials for my father, hes in hospital in hyderabad, i need 50 antifungal vials for me to recover. It took a few calls for me to arrange five, but i dont know how much help i can provide at this point in time. This is a drop in the ocean. I cant compare it to all of those people who Social Media who have made it their daily job and their commitment to the people of india to help get their oxygen supplies, to help get theme antifungal vials, to help get all the medicines possible that are actually running short in india currently. And also youre on air, youre having to report, speak to people, be at these crematoriums, which is so difficult. Youre a mom and a wife as well. How has that played into how youve coped . Reporter well, thats thats been difficult. And i think my daughter has been my inspiration. Because the biggest fear i had when leaving the house those 18 days to go to the hotel was, will she be fine . Because weve seen so many children be vulnerable to the second wave. And weve been told by experts that the third wave will be even worse. So while i didnt really talk much to my parents and my husband while i was away, they were monitoring what i was doing because i refused to they will them that i was at a crematorium or outside a morgue or went into a hospital, standing outside a covid ward. You didnt want to stress them further at that point in time. But you had a duty as a journalist. As an indian, i would say i was extremely emotional while reporting. I still am. Because those images will take awhile to actually not disappear, but for you to just keep it some way intact that you dont have to really remember them all the time. But at the same point in time, however contradictory it may sound, we must as indians remember april and may 2021. We shouldnt forget this. And we should hold the system accountable. Perhaps right now is not the right time, according to me, because theres so much to be done by them. If they have let us down in the past, we should give them that kind of time to prepare for the existing and remaining of the second wave and the third. But the system should be held accountable at some point in time. But overwhelming, the kind of support friends, family and strangers have been providing to each other at this very difficult time and space in india. Thank you for sharing, vidica suta, live in india. Welcome back. An emotional moment at golfs Memorial Tournament in ohio as the Tournament Leader is forced to withdraw because of a positive covid test. Patrick snell has the details.
