Its kevin owen with you for off 30 minute news round starting with this the Record Number of fires continue to ravage the amazon and with weeks to go still to the rainy season starts brazils governments facing a growing international backlash. Scrutiny is also falling on those supporting the balls now of ministration and its aggressive push to exploit the rainforest resources caleb maupin has got the latest for you this morning. The amazon rain forest is on fire on an unprecedented scale and its everybodys business weve seen this fire markets group about 200 yards in the past 5 minutes alone for the thousands of miles of scorched forests hundreds of burnt trees and they broke all records this year they were twice as many as they were in 2080 the war to save the amazon rain forest this is one of the last battlefields celebrities are speaking up saying that the lungs of the earth are at stake the lungs of the earth in flames the am is the needs more than a prove yours so what can you do the amazon rain forest produces more than 20 percent of the worlds oxygen and its been burning for the past 3 weeks its our responsibility to help to save our planet so whos to blame some say that it is those who eat meat others say that it is all of humanity or is it president balsa naro after all hes not known as captain chainsaw for nothing is drive to promote deforestation and roll back environmental laws has angered environmentalists and hes opened the door for American Businesses to swoop in a member of both in our Us Government has made sure that washington lobbyists are in on amazon Business Opportunities governor wilson lima is very closely tied to all kinds of American Business interests for example documents released under the foreign agents registration act reveal that wilson lima is tied to the inner America Group a very powerful washington d. C. Lobbying theyve created a packet for u. S. Companies showing the amazons potential for mining agribusiness and the gas industry back in 28 teen the head of the lobby group even praised trump for electing balsa naro. Donald trump paved the way for a bowl so narrow victory under President Trump brazils position as a world leader in industries such as agribusiness mining banking and aviation will be respected prior to the governorship of wilson the louima the Previous Administration of amazonas signed a contract with giuliani safety and security thats giuliani as in Rudy Giuliani former new york city mayor and a lawyer for donald trump as recently as april the Brazilian American Chamber of commerce has hosted events touting the vast american Business Opportunities presented by the forest and soil of the south american nation you know. These are there are. Those who see the homos money. For it business theres a pretty clear opportunity here thats for the democrats to promote saving the amazon rain forest and to rub it in the face of the g o p however the democrats recently canceled a proposed debate around Climate Change from their list of debates for 2020 president ial candidates so apparently saving the amazon is everybodys business until its nobodys business and that who has more connections United States companies and hes now just thought it was u. S. Markets and i think that these relations that the new government of brazil with the u. S. Government and companies are not very good for European Companies that are interested in this next Natural Resource so i think that the National Corporations are disputing this Natural Resources the m. S. N. And the forests the rain forest and dissident government is taking part in dispute. That the attention being paid to the devastation of the us and. Warranted thus despite the fact that this year an estimated 950000. 00 hectares of rain forest has been destroyed much of it for cattle ranching and soil being killed of a ship with the explicit support of his administration its not just brazil thats suffering with fires raging in a number of neighboring countries now too. It would. Make it but if i dont theres there could be a number of causes but usually when scattered sparks from the fires point of origin trampling the growth of the area on fire even a cigarette thrown out of a window could cause a fire which can spread for kilometers. A little over the us about what we are going to suspend the Election Campaign for at least one we believe in president the morality of his running mate will suspend all of the extra weight of its here this that we will dictate ourselves to taking care of the entire region affected by the wildfires the entire believe in them as. The use of johnson and johnson shares jumped by as much as 5. 4 percent after oklahoma called found the pharmaceutical firm liable for fueling the states Opioid Crisis the judge ruled monday that the drug may. Had to run a folsom dangerous Cells Company which downplayed the risk of addiction to its products and caused a spike in deaths he out of the company to pay 572000000. 00 in damages the decision johnson and johnson immediately said it would appeal but that find was much smaller that investors expected as prosecutors had been seeking as much as 17000000000. 00 we talked to emily walden the shes been heavily involved in fighting americas Opioid Crisis and has been following the case against some very closely she lost his son to opiate addiction he was off for it with a group of friends and became addicted very very quickly at that time 2009 and 11 these prescription drugs were everywhere very easy to obtain you know because it was prescribed by a doctor these kids really think much of it its given by a doctor how that can it be and then he became addicted and struggled with addiction percent years he was journey has childhood he had broken his arm numerous surgeries and west described it through honest childhood and when i found out later early exposure makes you more susceptible to addiction that when he took that with a group of friends. His addiction was almost immediate probably 66 months or something and to visit to action that he was trying to get away from it and to stop and he passed away he was probably for his addiction on and off for 3 years. When according to one study conducted by the American Academy of pediatrics a large number of children receive prescriptions for opioid medications over the course of 15 years almost 200000 would told to take such drugs that means 14 youngsters out of every 100000. 00 on average exposed to opioids in the u. S. And other recent study found that between 192016 almost 9000. 00 children died as a result of poisoning of those 600 were under 4 years old and holden again told us that the government simply isnt doing enough to tackle the crisis here and how many just cant come in and do harm to people and if theyre whining about their drugs and their her enter her way so that there is more her striving that should be a rainbow you can not harm people and for profit so f. D. A. Changes policy and they correct the mistakes that have been made in the past and congress dops can enter into these pharmaceutical companies i dont see an end to the other one thing they did it legally ringback but i would like somebody to bring the charges against them and that going to court so far through the last at least 1015 years the federal government has done very little for this problem. This state of kentucky we were hit where one of the hardest hit states and the entire country West Virginia ohio you know theres been the top 5 top 10 states that havent marketed the drugs here is executive should be criminally charged for what they have done and allowed to do. I will tell you david katz told us that he expects other pharmaceutical firms to seek settlements following what the children and johnson case this judge only assessed one year 570000000 dollars was considered by the judge to be one years of the mediation that oklahoma would need to deal with this problem the reason the stock market wasnt hit that hard in terms of johnson and johnson and some of the other or opioid manufacturers and defendants in these cases is because the market was kind of expecting a higher judgement something in the billions just in oklahoma so this will spur negotiations between the plaintiffs and the Big Companies you know the oxycontin and makers the other ones as well as johnson and johnson to settle these cases which are pending all over the nation. In a push for Greater Transparency police in the west of germany no said theyre going to begin disclosing the nationalities of criminal suspects taking a look at the implications of that decision and the ramifications of it a correspondent in europe peter all of. Police in the west of germany will reveal the nationality of everyone suspected of a crime even if its not relevant to the case the interior minister of the state of north rhinewestphalia which includes the major cities of cologne and theyll hold off has said theyve taken the decision to improve transparency we will name the nationalities of all suspects that we know for sure im convinced that this transparency is the best cure against political deception it may seem like a small thing and the policy of naming the nationality of a suspect varies from state to state but this has become sensitive subject following the migrant influx into germany there are all those that have accused the german media around authorities in the past of mixing the nationality of those involved in the case so as to not draw attention to crimes that have involved the migrants. So far we still dont have any suspects so we dont know who the culprits are. Making this an issue by oversimplifications and connecting it to the refugee issue is nothing but a misuse of the discussion now it is about clearing the facts and drawing the necessary conclusions i would like to add that it is completely improper for us and for the people who judge objectively to link a group that appeared to come from north africa where the refugees this is improper and i want to prevent this massively there is no sign that it concerns people who came to cologne as refugee. See i see. Good things. About a measure oriented toward the population so that they can have better information and better image that we i want to be on the ground in the city and sees in the hot spots of the country and to allow them to better chuch the situation they are looking at and also to better judge the overall immigration and my creation policies the idea behind not revealing the nationality of someone when it isnt pertinent to the crime is to avoid discrimination against minorities by linking nationality to. This new initiative to set some alarm bells ringing for though you seem to feel it may have an impact upon suspects rights the defaults disclosure of nationalities in police press work is not consistent stating where someone is from even if it is irrelevant to the circumstances of the crime doesnt lead to Greater Transparency this measure is unconstitutional and it is certain that its immoral i think that it can lead to wrong suspicions that your neighbor might be a trim and all or just based on his nationality and that can lead to further racism and in need to excuse enough people that we want to include in the society we dont think that. A sas pecks nationality adds anything to the case the german media guidelines for publishing the nationality of a suspect say to do so it must be grounded in Public Interest involving serious crimes like murder or terrorism but that ultimately the decision suppose the nationality of a suspect lies with the Editorial Staff of an outlet so ultimately whatever decision is made someone is going to be. 60 8 in the morning moscow time might be does go well so far should use some of the stories ahead of focusing on this one courtroom cameras save thousands of people whove been forced to flee their homes as violent says been growing that in the English Speaking regions will tell you why we come back. Seemed wrong why dont we all just dont all. Get to shape out of the attic. And engage with equals betrayal. When so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. Heres. Me here. Again this is international we kevin 0 in this morning so next the reports from cameroon citing government sources that say that thousands of people have now been forced to flee their homes in the countrys separate is the English Speaking areas fighting between the countrys military and insurgents as their 40 people dead over the weekend the latest flare up comes after a military tribunal in the french majority state sentenced 10 English Speaking separatists to life in prison as was fled up they were convicted of charges including terrorism and secession but many in the anger from Community Called the trial of the separatist movements in seeking independence in the state of arizona of failing federalization of cameroon. Human Rights Groups of repeatedly expressed their concern over the instability that. Unlawful killing sinews of Excessive Force by Government Forces during Security Operations have been rife since the crisis started Security Forces seem to have little fear of what will happen as they commit brazen crimes against civilians. Under her care. Absolutely. Thats right where you know. I mean i dont even know their. Lives. Are. Now. English speakers give you more background here make up about a 5th of camerons population in a predominantly concentrated in the west of the country to go on the map of the current divisions can be traced back to its colonial past though it was a German Colony until the end of the 1st world war and then divided between british and french mandates in the 160. 00 s. The french and british gave the territories their independence but the linguistic divisions persist we spoke to a local English Speaking journalist who was kidnapped indeed by separatists back in february last year but was later released. There were 2 separate systems of education you realize that you started with each us telling you how francophones would be brought to teach english lessons whereas they couldnt do correct pronunciation is all right spelling everything was getting bad that explains what and why we are where we are today we have people who are bent on. Separation we have people hope that effect the reason. I called it things will get better and we have the last set of people who think that everything is ok and that no figures no problem or that we can still believe hold tight to effective decentralization if there is no sign of compromise this is only even good was reduced being. As it did go by people are dying its a pretty sad situation. Very very very especially to some of us who are living beyond your 4 part of the country any point in time you get sounds of gunshots this also makes it difficult for us to also leave because when we get any sound. Beats faster than usual. For around the world the u. S. Envoy has been told by a federal court it must pay for gender reassignment surgery for transgender inmate unless theres a successful appeal in the Supreme Court in the next 90. 00 days it will be the 1st time a state has been instructed to pay for such a procedure. Since the medically necessary treatment for a prisoners gender dysphoria is gender confirmation surgery and responsible prison officials deny such treatment with full awareness of the prisoners suffering those officials violate the 8th amendments prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment. Will the inmate who identifies as a woman but it doesnt get them to go on the surgery is. Hes serving a 10 Year Prison Service sentence right now for sexually abusing a 15 year old at moishe job for release in 2021 theres not a simple for parole but if the gender reassignment surgery is successful paid for by the state and will be transferred to a womens prison we have to commentators in the us for their thoughts on this case that. I absolutely dont think that taxpayers should be funding peoples preferences and there is absolutely 0 evidence in the medical community that gender dysphoria is in any way solved or even helped for people you know who are confused about their gender theres nothing that says that that changing their gender will actually help them psychologically physically or in any other way and when you think about the fact that that taxpayer money could be going toward helping other victims like the 15 year old that this perpetrator violated thats where i start to get really angry well she is in prison the state is responsible for her that Persons Health and welfare so yes it should be covered just like cancer treatments are covered just as any other treatments or medical conditions are covered in american prison systems the constitution is quite clear that and several cases have proven it in terms of. Transgender inmates are. Or to be taken care of failure to do so is a violation of the 8th the memo to the constitution and its clear that today this is an incredibly sad testimony to the dangers and the damage of politically correct thinking and frankly indoctrination that is happe
