a top suspect in the rwandan genocide should be tried. in britain. and 4 police officers are fired in the u.s. after the death of an unarmed black man that strayed gives new protests. thank you for joining us we begin in hong kong where more than 300 protesters have been arrested after a standoff with police in the heart of the city one of the. police used pepper spray to disperse crowds rallying against a bill that could see people jailed for mocking china's national anthem they were also demonstrating against a security law proposed by beijing activists insists it will mean the end of hong kong's freedom and rights but probe aging politicians say it's necessary to defend against what they call homegrown terrorism. i think people need to recognize that

separate systems is based on our ability to poto national sovereignty security and developmental interests if we become a threat to 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 suppresses those and our support way of life and we can see the c.c.p. is trying to suppress. the phone call people. more serious so. we're trying to safeguard the. we're trying to say we want to be right. and taiwan's president has thrown her support behind the protesters in hong kong promising to provide humanitarian aid for pro-democracy activists sighing

wayne says the island which has its own struggles with chinese sovereignty will continue to back efforts towards democracy and freedom is the most concrete show of support by taiwan in recent months and the u.s. president says he is working on a strong response to china's plans national security law in hong kong his threat prompted this reaction from the chinese foreign ministry so. we the national security legislation for hong kong is purely china's internal affairs the laws no foreign interference china is determined in imposing external interference in hong kong as if it is if anyone insists on harming china's interests joiners determined to take all necessary countermeasures. brown is in hong kong he says many younger people are taking big risks to fight against the law changes. there were skirmishes all over the central area as police clashed and chased protesters who were chanting pro-democracy slogans as well as insults at the police after issuing

a number of warnings the police then fired pepper pellets there were a number of arrests not just a few arrests more than 300 according to local media some of those people who've been detained as young as 14 years old many schoolchildren were participating in today's disturbances and of course they are jeopardizing university prospects as well as career prospects now hong kong's government has warned that it's prepared to continue cracking down hard if the protesters continue to defy warnings to stay off the streets because what was happening in the central business district on wednesday was of course an illegal assembly and the police were warned the people taking part in such assemblies potentially risk a jail term of up to 5 years remember almost 9000 people have now been arrested since the protests began here in hong kong almost a year ago now the reason why people were protesting in the center of hong kong on

wednesday is because they couldn't protest outside hong kong's parliament where that proposed national anthem bill was being debated by lawmakers police ring the area with security barriers and also $3000.00 riot pro riot police were on duty benedicts rogers easy co-founder and chairman of the hong kong watch he says the movement is likely the keep going until protests as get what they believe was promised by the government's. i don't think we're seeing the end of the pro-democracy movement the movement i think is absolutely as determined as ever particularly to try to not have this security you know imposed on them they're not just going to roll over but we are certainly seeing the end of hong kong's autonomy of one country 2 systems and its basic creed and i think overall the weight of responsibility lies on kerry land and on the central government in beijing they

have promises that they should uphold under the terms of the sign of british joint declaration and the basic law constitution including a promise albeit in vaguely worded terms to introduce universal suffrage at some stage so the responsibility is theirs and they have introduced at various times laws and measures that have been extremely repressive and have absolutely provoked the fury of the people of course there has been a small minority and i emphasize small minority of protestors who have resorted to violence and it's an extreme action and i don't condone that action and i think come home owners are at their best when they protest peacefully but we should remember that those incidents of violence have mostly been in response to police brutality it's usually been the police that has has acted 1st and of course in

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 the car which creates a whole host of emanation one other doctors desperate to be able to wash its hands before a procedure actually used the water that was dripping from air conditioners. years of economic and political turmoil have led millions of venezuelans to seek refuge elsewhere more than 5000000 have fled in the past 6 years thousands are now going back as a pandemic ravages the economies of receiving countries but to a future there may be even worse listen to them. now there's concern in south korea about the relaxing after on

eased is widely seen as a reward for that effort so-called travel bubbles allowing free a movement between neighboring states that have the virus under control will help the process new zealand and australia are considering establishing one so we both stand to benefit from getting travel up and running again hong kong the cow in mainland china could follow while a fast track system for business travelers has been established between south korea and china so they can bypass quarantine. in accordance with the agreement they're issued a with a quarantine waiver if they get tested at the airport and go under active monitoring one of south korea's most prominent business people the samsung j. wiley recently visited one of his company's plants in china easier travel is seen as important for ecan. recovery. with 90 percent of international flights grounded

information or 'd they provide misleading or inaccurate information so for example the premier league i asked some questions arising out of the court and then they might decide that the information they've received isn't adequate or is misleading and that my it is another route in which they may exercise that discretion so long as they act their will to refuse the bit. again i'm fully back to bill with the headlines on al-jazeera hong kong police have used pepper spray as demonstrations escalate there at least 300 people have been arrest said protesters are angry at a proposed law that could see people jailed for mocking china's national anthem adrian brown has more from hong kong some of those people have been detained as
