Think its important to abide by these rules because i think theres a lot of times that goes behind i think he should have been implemented from the beginning. From the russian Capital International my names you know neal you are very welcome to the program. The Chinese Foreign ministry has accused the u. S. Of violating International Law by breaking into its consulate in houston to retaliate american agents were seen forcing their way through the door right after chinese officials were required to vacate the building the raid happened on friday president ordered the closure earlier in the week accusing beijing of stealing intellectual property Justice Department claim consular staff were obstructing an investigation meanwhile in the chinese city of chang do on the right of your screen the American Culture has been shut down and a hitch. Just seen there are taking rubbish by the building one of the bikes had split appeared to contain shredded paper. In a related development a chinese researcher has been arrested in San Francisco telling is accused of not the losing her military affiliations in her visa application she is one of 4 visiting researchers who have recently been accused of these are for old beijing has condemned the crackdown on urged the United States to stop harassing Chinese Students researchers double quarter looks they owned going escalation. Since the 1970 s. U. S. Foreign policy has used more honey than vinegar and its dealings with beijing china has definitely changed as a result but not exactly the way washington wanted it to you know the world was much different than we imagined. It would produce a future with bright promise of comedy and cooperation. But today today were all still Wearing Masks and watching the pandemics body count rise because the c. C. P. Failed in its promises to the world if we want to have a free 21st century and not the chinese century of which dreams. The old paradigm of blinding gauge with china simply wont get it done speech seems to have a lot in common with that of Winston Churchills when he declared an iron curtain had descended across europe dividing it into soviet and western spheres it was the beginning of the cold war and with pomp ails us against them rhetoric another cold war between the u. S. And china may be brewing this isnt about containment dont buy that. Its about a complex new challenge that weve never faced before. The u. S. S. R. Was closed off from the free world communist china is already within our borders washingtons hostile stance is no doubt part of a recent pitfall in sino u. S. Relations while waistband in the us ach. Hes ations of tech disputes in the South China Sea its all reminding experts of a warning former president Richard Nixon made decades ago we must cultivate join a jury in the next few decades want it is learning to develop its National Strength and potential otherwise we will one day be confronted with the most familiar blue enemy that has ever existed in the history of the world unfortunately for washington nixon was right when he was president china was still an economically backwards country with its eyes on Rapid Development fast forward to the present and the communist parties accomplished much of what it set out to do its lifted millions out of abject poverty it led the country to what looks like a quick recovery from the cove in 1000 pandemic it doesnt seem willing to stop in the face of washington statements. Which ignore facts and often of ideological bias and cold woman telling our hodgepodge of political lies intensively made recently by senior u. S. Officials accusations of human rights abuses authoritarian name calling pump has even labeled chinas system a new tyranny it does all sound a bit crusade but then again its nothing new in americas Foreign Policy playbook the troika of charity in this hemisphere cuba venezuela and nicaragua has finally met its match pressers regimes and ideologies forces of oppression to tell a tear in ism and domination well despite the trumpet ministrations best efforts the socalled troika of tyranny is still around even where u. S. Backed regime change was successful its still no walk in the park in iraq the government is basically powerless to combat militias that see it as a us puppet and in countries where the u. S. Failed like venezuela its a huge waste of taxpayer money china though is a lot more powerful and with u. S. Allies unwilling to get behind this new strategy pompei all might need to rethink his approach because. The world has already danish. Studied and actually in my opinion there are so corners to work between china and america has never stopped or in the past 3 decades because the United States has never stopped in the way of thinking of cold war talk to when they are thinking about their china the whole world is a very clear which country which at the ministry is more terror in the world in the war death fancy specially or so this is the key question that a for many people to understand i think that defeat the United States would be really to run need that to and the ruling in interference in the other countries you affairs. Yet another standoff between protesters and federal forces in the us city of portland things got violent when people marched on the federal courthouse they were met there with tear gas and rubber bullets. Federal forces were sent in earlier this week by President Trump to quell anti racism protests which has got increasingly violent some residents and Business Owners have complained their city has been turned into a war zone by the riots but more than a dozen u. S. Mers most of them democrats voice the alarm over the federal crack down on the u. N. Has now allotting its concern over the security response. Peaceful demonstrations that have been taking place and citizen the u. S. Such a sport really must be able to continue with that those positions beaten them and ill say the people reporting and the journalists risk an arbitrary address to detach and being subject to unnecessary disproportionate discriminants or use of force or suffering other violations of the rights well since the riots began in portland 18 people have been arrested on charges including arson and the list and we heard from locals about the federal crackdown. Part of the drum circle or even. Just a really nasty. Dirty truth from the birth. Of you know whats right with the rubber bullet at night. We. Were. All right lets turn our attention to him into our Face Coverings our mother tree and all public spaces but this raised the question over who should monitor compliance some major retailers on smaller shop 2 are saying its not up to them to enforce the new rules or u. K. Correspondent sally reports. Provide a its now mandatory for people in england to wear a face mask when they go to Shop Supermarket so they go to pick up a delivery now were going to go on to the streets of london to try to see what the public think they should done this before coronavirus point. The fact that its running one people 100 pounds. And probably being money out of Peoples Health just that that kind of public picture of government. I think we should have been implementing from the beginning. I think its important to abide by these rules visit think theres a lot of science that goes behind coming up with these rules most of the shops that i went into werent really forcing the rules those that were just said that they would recommending people to where mosques to cover their faces now many of those shop workers dont want to be enforcing those rules because they fear aggression and backlash from certain members of the public if they were to try to make people wear masks with hundreds of incidents of violence and abuse directed at retail stuff every day we welcome then ousmane that in force meant to be left to their thought rather than potentially put in hard working retail colleagues in harms way if. Someone refuses to wear a face mask probably we can kindly asked him to leave but as to enforcing it its not its viable it will be certain people would be upset about it. And they did the most controlling boss for us also as well is a weekend in short if you can always encourage people to have it but. God knows how weve done and sort of the government of said that those who refused to wear face masks when going into shops could be fined up to 100. 00 pounds should an individual without an exemption refuse to wear a Face Covering a shop can refuse them entry and can call the police if people refuse to comply the police have full into. Powers and can issue a fine and the police dont seem to be too keen either saying that making them in force that is both unrealistic and unfair policing the wearing of Face Coverings in shops cant be a priority because we simply dont have the resources to expect my colleagues to be policing the supermarket aisles looking for those shoppers not wearing a Face Covering is unrealistic and unfair the u. K. Has had one of the worst coronavirus death tolls of any country around the world there are some who say that these measures are better late than never but many others who feel but its far too little thought through lay beside the artsy london.

Reputation as a governor who cares a governor who has an ear to the concerns of constituents and. Hes made a habit of dressing down very publicly officials that have either been incompetent to. d work his temporary replacement dictator of hasnt been welcomed with open arms protests to say that he doesnt belong he has no ties to the region and that you know that much prefer the old governor nevertheless the new governor says hes there to stay and hes going to do a good job going. Lets respect each other lets Work Together as ive been doing for food days in the governors office. I came here all of your complaints are taken into account so that all government bodies work smoothly i will spend the weekend on a trip around the region. Still the new governor and protesters are at loggerheads because the protesters who gather in these huge crowds they say he is refused to come out to speak with them to engage with them which is signs of weak this fear even self says he has the time to waste that there is a lot to be done that the big show everything runs smoothly that there is a smooth transition in the years advise the protesters to stop attending these needless and meaningless protests that instead devote their energy and enthusiasm to volunteer work for example.

You see to live in them. This is been a yearning since our youth we used to say let the chains break in highest afia open as a mosque weve ended an 86 year period hyas of fear has now returned to its essence it was a mosque and its a mosque a game lets go through for the eye a severe originally it was built. The eastern roman empire is a cathedral then it became a mosque after the ultimate conquest in 1035. 00 it was converted into a museum but earlier this month turkey transformed it back into a mosque the only does christiane topless a former greek ambassador to canada believes the change in sofia status is done to the president attempting to take attention away from a troubled economy. Well i think that he was doing it all maybe also for internal reasons because his popularity is dropping now in that turkey because of the economic crisis and also my precious is that he is trying to put down at that the founder of modern turkey so this is an attack also against the demolished regime in turkey so basically its an internal problem that has International Ramifications i dont think that he cares anything about statements being done the only thing that she might care would be if concrete measures were taken like the e. U. Taking sanctions against against turkey for violating International Law and violating that there is a real integrity of 2 of its Member States which is greece and cyprus we must not forget that the e. U. Has taken sanctions against russia for reasons much less. And which which i personally dont agree with or met yet it refuses or the moment to take sanctions against turkey. The chief of a u. K.

T. Youve got to clean up your own house before you Start Talking about other people and simple response to it its contradictory really to not have dealt with the whole issue about colonial provenance and also the not complying in the workforce ive also said and also support but not matter that seemed incompatible to me. Well the comments come after several high profile galleries and museums responded to the black lives matter of movement with words of support very direct ones as well the British Museum director for example wrote a blog post last month saying the institution stands in solidarity with black people throughout the world but the British Museum itself has been under pressure for years to return works of art looted from former colonies now those include the been in bronze is taken by british soldiers from nigeria also the greek parthenon marbles and an Easter Island statue u. K. Legislation currently prevents National Institutions from returning looted idea in their collections except in the case of art stolen during the nazi era but a British Museum spokesperson said the institution is working on changes when it comes to displaying the objects on is being opened up by the history of the collection to arrow francis again says museums need to change. Role of the newseum. And also the means by which they shouldnt be assembled is being questioned theres quite a lot of documentation about how these objects came into the possession of the museum so we need to know whether or not it was taken with a consent when asking for a new kind of music that is more humanitarian and pays greater attention to human rights.
