to recognize that our separate systems is based on our ability to a national sovereignty security and developmental interests if we become a threat to a national security or a base for subversive activities the separate systems cannot be maintained so and harnessing national security protection is the best way to preserve our separate systems and i was separate way of life while it's early afternoon now in hong kong as we go live to adrian brown who's in the central business district adrian it was quieter earlier but that hasn't been the case in the last hour or so tell us about what's been happening. you know funny just after lunchtime there were skirmishes running skirmishes between police and protesters right here in the heart of the central business district it's where the upmarket boutiques 5 star hotels and fancy office blocks are the police used pepper spray as well as pepper balls to disperse

the crowds after about an hour they managed to do that now there have been a large number of arrests i have to say i've just watched a long queue of police a scorching protesters down a flight of stairs and of course for those people who've been arrested if they're young it means that university prospects career prospects now in jeopardy because according to the police people taking part in an assembly today were taking part in what they deemed to be an illegal assembly and potentially potentially they face up to 5 years in jail if they are convicted now this skirmish here in the center of hong kong happened as the local legislature was about to begin a debate on a new national anthem law for hong kong this would in future if it's passed that it will be passed because the legislature has the arithmetic it would make it an offense to destroy a spect you know who during the national anthem the march of the volunteers of

course hong kong has the same national anthem as the mainland mainland politicians have been incensed by recent events where the national anthem has been booed at sporting events but today's protests of course also comes ahead of another significant development on thursday when china's rebel scrubber stamp parliament the national people's congress is expected to pass draft a draft resolution which will allow a new security law to be imposed on hong kong and that security law could potentially restrict the sorts of protests that we've seen happening here in hong kong on wednesday afternoon. and what more precisely a are we learning about that security now. because they have been very few details but i understand that they have been some leaks what more are we learning about the security. well we won't know the full details about this proposed security law and tell the draft resolution the draft

legislation rather has been voted on at the national people's congress but some details have been leaked to media here in hong kong in court including the state broadcaster r.t. h.k. and what they're saying is that the the law has now been widened the scope has been widened to include not just individuals but also groups organizations that potentially means potentially that the law could in the future target human rights groups here in hong kong so for instance like amnesty international and the law is also going to not just focus on individuals it's also going to focus on acts that it be carried out by people so we will know more details you know by this time tomorrow we would hope but at the moment it's all just really speculation the president donald trump in the last few hours also waded into the debate over hong kong he has said that if this security act is passed that hong kong future as

a financial center is over he said that he has an important surprise in store and it's expected that by the end of the week we may hear that the president is going to announce potentially the end of the special trading privileges that hong kong has enjoyed with the united states now people here in hong kong say if that happens it's not the united states or china that's going to be hurt it's hong kong thank you very much for that adrian brown with the latest there from hong kong. in other news the world health organization is warning of a surge in corona virus infections in brazil and chile as the region becomes a global epicenter of the pandemic brazil is that america's worst affected country with nearly 400000 confirmed cases and now a study is warning its death toll could climb 5 fold by august's reports.

sources say they have been abandoned by the government. well you it makes you scared very scared there are a lot of people who believe the virus is a lie from the politicians but it's not a lie we know what we're talking about my neighbor had it and recovered i have other friends infected a friend died it's very sad. the demographic density in the last increases the chances of catching covert 19. in the past few days human rights activists have to announce a change in the body removal protocols what once was a public service now depends on the relatives of the deceased would you reach such after 27 hours a body was removed from this house it is absurd what the state is doing with people who do not even have a chance to bury their dead. it's all happening as brazil is caught in a political crisis that has polarized the country between those who believe the way

out is by imposing a lockdown and those precedents who want to open up the economy the fight has forced governors to clash with will turn out. on tuesday the police raided the residence of rio's governor wilson beat cell who is being investigated for corruption in the handling of covert 1000 vets has said on twitter also not all is using the federal police to attack him caught in the middle of the dispute are the victims of brazil's political system which is failing to protect those who are in need of help the most. i report is warning venezuela is so poorly equipped to deal with the virus that it could make things worse for the rest of the region millions of venezuelans have fled the country in recent years as it deals with an economic crisis that's left many struggling for basic supplies human rights watch and johns hopkins university say

prisons and authorities harass and chase journalists doctors and nurses who are trying to inform people doctors interviewed for the report describe their working conditions and the plight of patients as the plausible missions are asked to bring the water for a mission which means that for the most vulnerable and or that becomes a huge obstacle for admission to the hospital they have to bring 25 liters of water which is really quite expensive so why don't they are asked to bring us not only for their own consumption but even to flush the toilets in some cases this iteration is so dire that patients are being told to the f.a.q. and you're only outside the hospital in a car which creates a whole august of. one of the doctors desperate to be able to wash its hands before a procedure actually used the water that was dripping from air conditioners. years

the 1st session of the 11th parliament let's bring in zain because robbie who's in tehran for zain president hassan rouhani spoke ahead of the opening of this session tell us about his message and how this new parliament is likely to get on with the current leadership. well folly this is president hassan rouhani who last year in office as president of the islamic republic of iran during his speech congratulating the new parliamentarians inaugurating this 11th parliament of the islam a public he said that he hopes that it will be a time of friendship not confrontation he said that the mudgal if the parliament in iran is a symbol of islamic democracy and should be a leader in the region as an example for many other countries he also said that there can be cooperation and convergence between the branches of government to achieve progress in furthering national interests people have to work together let me read you some of what he said in his speech firstly he blamed the united states

for many of the country's economic problems the president and romney has been criticized for not handling the economy well and he said that quote according to the supreme leader the president is the commander of this economic war and the other 2 branches of government the parliament and the judiciary 'd must help the president's office he also said that the independence of each branch of government in the country does not necessarily mean that they have to be confrontational that they can cooperate and he said that my administration extends a hand of brotherhood towards the new parliament now his tone was very positive but you look if you look at the context of the relationship between the presidency and the parliament in the previous years if you look at the political context of what has happened to president hassan rouhani especially since the collapse of the 2015 nuclear deal then you can understand that perhaps the content of his message the words he used could be seen as defensive this is a president who the previous parliament made 10 attempts to impeach ministers in

his cabinet and they succeeded in impeaching 3 of his ministerial cabinets this is the previous parliament that did this that was relatively more reformist leaning than the current parliament and if there are 2 more impeachments if you lose 2 more minister. then this presidency will have to go back to the parliament to achieve a vote of confidence to continue and finish out this last year in power now experts suggest that that is not going to happen that the government all branches all leaders want to see president rouhani complete this and have a smooth transition into the next presidency but we have seen the readout from the supreme leader a message from him to this new parliament also said that it is the parliament's job to investigate the other branches of government thank you zain for that. there in tehran. decision is expected in the coming hours on whether genocide suspects will be handed over to u.n.
