that we made 13 year old has taken on the job of fill in teacher in gaza during the pandemic. china is planning to push through national security laws on hong kong following months of mass protests against the central government this comes as china's biggest political political gathering of the it kicks off in beijing at the draft legislation would almost certainly be rubber stamped by the national people's congress it spokesman says the new law serves a fundamental interests of both china and hong kong activists fear it could be used to limit the political freedoms in hong kong. jungle could be a chanson tree hong kong is an inseparable part of the people's republic of china the m.p.c. is the highest organ of state power in light of new circumstances and need the n.p.c. is exercising the power in trying to in the constitution to establish and improve

at the state level a legal framework and enforcement mechanism for safeguarding national security in hong kong and uphold and improve the institutional framework of one country 2 systems which is highly necessary for katrina you is in beijing with more than one china is doing this now 9 different items were listed for discussion of the next few days and one of those items was the discussion of this national security law the whole call me now it says it's to be discussed but many of these items already preapproved policy so it's highly likely that this will be passed into legislation so what from what we understand it the n.p.c. is using a sort of legal backdoor to make a change to hong kong is basic law which is hong kong has many constitution and this allows it to bypass the usual legislative processes in hong kong to make this move and in a sense what china is doing it's taking matters into its own hands we've seen

purses happening for almost a year now sometimes violent protests and these protests have been a huge thorn in beijing side they have undermined the credibility of beijing they've been hugely embarrassing and this is really its solution to ending those protests once and for all and this really is the biggest direct attack on hong kong's of autonomy possibly since the handover of the british commonly in 1997 and what this really means is hong kong is one step closer to looking and feeling more like just another chinese province and of course beijing can expect more backlash backlash from the international community for enacting this quite dramatic move emily lau is a leading member of hong kong's democratic party and she says the public is concerned about what they see as china's encroachments on hong kong's autonomy. i didn't sure do that people here are very very concerned and very alarmed and very

disturbed because they fear such legislation would take away our freedoms or take away the personal safety and the rule of law and the people are very very nervous indeed because they fear that there is so much silly by straying and so much clashes in the ahl legislature that day they try to push something through that it could take a long time so they saying the british just do it and forced it on us but this is terrible if you want to enact legislation affecting people's freedoms and save the rule of law certainly is up to our legislature to do their job and that's exactly what is said in a basic law which is our mini constitution promulgated by beijing it says we should legislate on our own but now it seems they have breaking up all of the promises and they want to legislate for us well some people say that because of

a pandemic beijing feels that many countries which used to be supportive of hong kong and they're now too busy with their own hands crisis so they will not want to spare time to look at home car and so there is this chinese expression when there's a fire they will come in and kill and hoping that nobody will notice it is really very bad and but i hope the international community you will care because there are many many internet many foreign citizens living yet there are many americans brand new zealand the canadians they are not thinking at what the media so it's a very international city so if something so bombed badly happens i hope the international community will tell china just so it. cleanup operations have begun in india and in bangladesh out of the most powerful site the goal in 20 years so i

over critical infrastructure and even map out potential areas for cyber attacks so this is what the u.s. intelligence has been saying the u.s. president for his part is also been affected personally he says he was apparently quite angry back in 2017 when one of these flights passed over his estate in new jersey but there's no question if the united states follows through on pulling out of this open skies treaty that this would anger european allies it could potentially even put baltic states at risk but this would mark also the 3rd time that the united states has pulled out of a major arms control treaty of course 2 years ago the united states have banned in the iran nuclear accord the design to limit iran's nuclear program and last year it also left the i.n.f. treaty or the intermediate nuclear forces treaty again accusing russia of violating the street is the reason that it was withdrawing so there's some concern about

whether the united states if it does follow through this if pulling out of the open skies treaty is actually a signal of potentially a desire to pull out of one more remaining treaty with russia and that would be the new start treaty this would be particularly serious because this treaty is designed to limit the number of nuclear missiles for both countries. and i would see point 4000000 people have filed for unemployment benefits in the u.s. this week in the latest wave of layoffs because of the coronavirus operate the labor department says more than 38000000 people have lost their job since look gun restrictions were imposed in march to slow the spread of having 1000 economists warn the u.s. economy is sinking into the worst recession since the great depression which began in the 1929 well some small businesses in america finding a way to survive the economic conditions described as the worst since the great depression is on the reports now from in new jersey. at montclair book center
