across the globe ease coronavirus restrictions plus. i'm wayne hay in all clint's new zealand where we'll tell you why coronavirus may change the way our cities are designed. protests to have defied curfews and at least $21.00 u.s. states to continue that demonstrations against police brutality it's been nearly a week now protests which occasionally turned violent it began with the death of a black man george floyd while in police custody in the city of minneapolis minnesota now 2 officers have been sex in the city of atlanta after they were filmed using excessive force against protests as well as it was rob reynolds reports. police misconduct amid nationwide protests police misconduct here police in riot gear surround

a car with 2 young black people inside one slashes a tire. another smashes the driver's window. and the young woman is taste and violently dragged out although she is not resisting. 7 the male driver is manhandled and also shocked with a taser even though each 2 doesn't appear to resist but put it down and put it out of the us on sunday after the police body cam video went viral 2 of the policemen were fire authorities identified them as ivory streeter and mark gardner writes this was atlanta georgia on saturday night for protesters calling for justice for the death in minneapolis of george floyd it could have been almost

anywhere in the us atlanta mayor keesha lance bottom's said the officers actions were unacceptable sometime during the night i saw a very disturbing video of 2 young college students who were in downtown atlanta yesterday evening and it was disturbing on many levels at the least of not which was that the air clearly was an excessive use of force the 3 other officers were placed on desk duty and main face further discipline plan as police chief apologized how we behaved as an agency as individuals was unacceptable and i know that we cause further fear. to you in a space that's already so here focused for so many african-americans. and i am genuinely sorry this is not who we are this is not where we were about another

disturbing video from los angeles shows a police vehicle excel orating into protesters knocking 2 of them down it then reverse that high speed nearly striking other people no one was seriously injured rob reynolds al jazeera los angeles new york's mayor bill de blasio has been speaking out about the process he condemned the looting but celebrated the efforts of both police and demonstrators there are many things to discuss and we will things that must be addressed things that need to be done better both in terms of our immediate work addressing this situation and certainly in our work going forward much that has to be done they must that much that has to change and that we will change. but i want to know that overall even in a day where thousands of people were out expressing their views expressing their frustration their pain their anger and their deep desire for change in locations

all over the city overall what we saw was overwhelmingly peaceful demonstration. and speak once again to officers kristen salumi who's live for us you know what else to blowsy i have to say. well i think you captured the tone of his speech right there attempting to paint the overwhelming majority of the protests as peaceful and the conduct of the police overwhelmingly as restrained however he can escape some of the videos that have been circulating out there like the one about the police cars driving into a crowd of demonstrators shots of police officers pushing down protesters while these may be in the minority those are what people are talking about and pointing to as examples of what people of color face in this country on a regular basis the president mayor of the city did promise to investigate those

incidents he said it's never acceptable to drive into a crowd of people however he said that these are tough situations and overwhelmingly again he put his support behind the police walking a fine line facing backlash from his own police department but overwhelmingly these calls from the city residents and the nation to do more to address these issues and to that effect he talked about faster forms of justice for police officers who are accused of wrongdoing quicker investigations the need for that and also repealing some laws that protect the records of police officers who have records of misconduct in the past or been accused in the past he said this would go a long way to restoring faith but today however talking focusing on the peaceful aspects of what was happening also having to answer for protesters though there was some looting in lower manhattan last night so the protesters got violent

as well so we had harsh words for the protesters who broke the law as well and said they will be investigated and dealt with as well monday morning in new york city the working week getting underway. a what's the mood right now. well i think the city remains tense the city remains under lockdown if you will because of the coronavirus most people are still working from home except for essential services so people have a lot of time to watch the news or go out and demonstrate if they've lost a job and have no place to go for work i think a lot of that frustration is fueling the rage that we're seeing on the street given that the pandemic has overwhelmingly impacted people of color in this country they're feeling under attack from health issues as well as from police all of that just adds to the kind of feeling of tension and that things just aren't normal or

the same here in new york and as i said a lot of time for people to sit and reflect on this given that we're all staying home down to 0 as kristen kristen salumi reporting live from new york chris many thanks indeed police in portland in the west coast state of oregon were involved in a standoff with protesters they used tear gas and stun grenades to disperse crowds files willetts and some tried to break police barricades portland is among the cities that imposed overnight fuz jay gray is just a few blocks from where the floyd's arrest happened in minneapolis it's also where the violence began destroying parts of that neighborhood. and i want to show you how intense that fire was firsthand you can see it has gutted the buildings here and there are scenes like this that play out not only in this neighborhood where just a week ago to the day george floyd was killed but also across the city

that are just devastated you can see the flames leaping up here 4 stories and really taking everything that they could swallow here and then as you move along you can see just the entire property in fact we were moved earlier we were only other side city teams are out and surveying things trying to start to pull things together and move some of this debris out they said this building was too close to falling down they wanted us to get away from that side of the building because of the lack of safety with the structure look the protests have continued to from the night that floyd was killed here what changed overnight though was the intensity as far as violence damage like this and just the interactions with police it was much color here thankfully let's hear now from one to 0 as mike hanna is in washington d.c. he reports on the protests there and moves to crack down on the far left group.

protesters once again gathered in the vicinity of the white house kept a distance away by layers of police and secret service offices. invoking the name of the man who's dead that spot these nationwide protests. the president chose to assign responsibility for the violence that broke out in the past 24 hours singling out the predominantly left wing and concession movement known as anti fire. the united states he tweeted will be designated as a terrorist organization the problem is that there is no u.s. law that would allow a group to be designated in this way and the american civil liberties union was quick to point out that any attempt to do so would raise concerns about the constitutional right to free speech adding that a terrorist is an inherently political label that is easily abused and misused

the attorney general subsequently clarified that the joint terrorism task force would investigate the violence focusing on whether any group including active was responsible and washington's mayor called on the president to temper the tone of his tweets i think that the president has a role to play nationally in calming. the the i rest that we see in cities across america and i think at the least he has to not incite violence and that's what we would expect presidential candidate joe biden visited a protest site wearing a mask he talked to demonstrators and then release this tweet urging the need to listen and whether intentionally or not including a picture of himself taking a knee in the manner of athletes in recent years protesting police brutality. there

were some isolated incidents of unrest particularly in philadelphia where a building was set alight and arrests were made. as the demonstrations continued into the night there were once again outbreaks of violence in various cities. plains a few blocks away from the white house in what police described as renewed vandalism . furthermore what had been a day of largely peaceful protests. washington experience white house correspondent kimberly. commute is going to be a white house press briefing in a couple of hours the president there already has been pretty active on twitter today. the u.s. president continuing to push the narrative that the these violent protests across the united states have been organized by the left leaning group that is militantly

opposed to right wing ideology and tea of course we don't really know if this is a well organized group in fact to the contrary many experts saying it's very loosely organized so that leaves many scratching their heads about how the justice department intends to pursue these under the lens of domestic terrorism any potential charges against this group now in the midst of all of this the u.s. president also pushing back that on the suggestion that right leaning groups white supremacists or white national groups may also be participating in these protests now the u.s. president has already met with the top lawyer in the united states william bar he's now having a video conference with the nation's mayors on how to keep the city safe we're not sure if the u.s. president will address this at the 800 g.m.t. press briefing he did have a speech on saturday evening with regard to this of course so much has happened since then many look to the u.s. president at this time as traditionally it is their role to try and restore calm

but so far the argument is that the u.s. president has done just the opposite that his words have ignited many of the frustrations and anger into that and we should point out that former president barack obama has just published an open letter on the blogging platform medium doing what many say the current u.s. president should be doing and that is trying to restore calm he spoke on this blog saying that he acknowledged that there is legitimate frustration by the protesters with the failure over decades to reform criminal justice in the united states but he also said violence is not the answer any particularly challenge young people noting that the greatest impact on reforming criminal justice in the united states . it doesn't happen at the white house behind me but it happens at the state and the local level police chiefs district attorneys for example and that is where we know according to polls that young voter turnout is in the words of president obama

pitifully low so he is now challenging young people kind of expansion on his statement from 4 years ago at the democratic national convention another election year don't believe you vote now what he's saying to young people is the way to be engaged is not violet's but voting on a series white house correspondent kimberly reporting live from washington many thanks indeed to complete its brigand weapons and would buns who's also in washington d.c. he's an assistant professor at harvard university's department of political science good to have you with us because we don't know yet whether the president himself is going to speak at this press briefing at 18 g.m.t. atlantas meadows says that the president's rhetoric is not helping should he speak to the nation right now given his history. the president doesn't have many incentives to try to unite the nation right now donald trump essentially in his tweets has played to his republican base is made simple tweets calling for

a law and order he's argued to risk weeks that when the shooting starts the looting starts and displays to republicans who support strong policing measures against what they see as illegitimate protests but this is unlikely to appeal to democrats particularly as we see partition partisanship increasing in the united states the president has very few abilities to get democrats over to his side and because there are relatively few structural incentives for him to try to bridge the gap between the left and the right in america it seems unlikely that he would be able to deliver or have any reason to deliver a unity message through a national speech is what's going on in the u.s. at the moment damaging the president's political support i mean what state is it compared to what it was when he was elected in 2016 in these any any of this effect and what he's saying right now where he's going his ad spend.

the president's support has been pretty stable and overall relatively low he has never had more than 50 percent approval rating nationally in aggregate polls since he was inaugurated almost 4 years ago 3 and a half years ago what we have seen consistently is that his approval rating has remained in the low forty's he got a small bomb at the beginning of the pandemic response this is called a rally around the flag bump and what we saw from rally around the flag bump was a slightly lower increase than we saw in other countries and eventually that disappeared too but century what's happening is that trump has a small group of very hard core supporters in the republican party who will stand with him no matter what but that means that it's fairly unlikely that we're going to see fairly big changes in his approval rating or in his electoral odds going into november some robinson woodward bernstein in washington we're going to thank you know 2. for vice president joe biden. who is

speaking right now. let's listen in for a moment we have a problem you know there are 456-0000 people who live instead of dad because he didn't listen to the station moderators it was the guys like me back in january saying you know problem. but my point is this. i think. i was talking to a freshman of our last night. and he's talking about history. and we have to educate the public war about the history of what supremacy history of the subjugation of the 4 years and i agree with that i think is another. i think what's happened what i mean maybe as you norm

senator. i would use different frame the band-aid ripped off by this defendant is president nobody can pretend any longer what this is all about. the rich man who has been charities on her back. it's been hard it's memoir it's been a span span fire 600 or 5 or 5000. of these kids who are illegal young people coming by to come across the border docs the other ones out there they're the ones out there making sure the grocery stores are open and they're catching zs and dime they're the ones out there putting plastic bags like my son was a surgeon a lot over body because they don't have a protective gear the nurses age try to help people. they're on they're the

ones who all of a sudden people look and say my god you may recall something special about me is just how you'll raise me and i mean that because we go away right war where. i are you know over mining hours ask questions not from knock at time it would all what's the difference between then and now. well i can remember i remember coming to the church and i start off back in the sixty's you start off in a black church never go off in the same grave you're our movie director well it was it was that's how it was it was different but i did what he did that there's some i was. so modest that the american public is now see. that i don't think they thought of themselves and vast majority of them as the white supremacy that they look at all the landed out of the brothers and sisters of

the plane are they all know the real predators be walked there all the little people coming out of the woods in the violas and charlottesville carrying torches and nazi flag and confederate flag or vang bulgy a grief so i have for now and why and when i can now who is kill both or was what i have read is maddening competition there find people on both sides now the president today let me tell you one thing that i didn't learn i didn't learn from when i came back to delaware because we had no local was didn't want to syracuse and i came back and our city was applied the year i came back that was the year that dr king was my to play the hero. bobby kennedy got a kid and their vote on the sat and my junior and wrote i can bag a job i'm going to offer it and. after about 5 months it was an equal amount of

large streets i quit i became a public a bad if i do i'm wrong place i didn't mean that rag but they were doing the stuff so i go which you know i just never wanted it what happened then was there was a. how can i say. there was a moment. where i thought that we were going to be able nation gigantic change. and i don't run to the county council i don't want to do countertops what i was fighting red white and i opened them public housing and you can use a burger that was a big issue i was involved. and then i didn't plan on running for the united states senator but i love it is what job i do is going to run read my bit ago i posted. it but the point is i didn't have any idea that they reported me to your insurer it was other out of nowhere to run for the senate i was running against the whole

democratic party that had turned to be a member really hard right back in those days. anyway gotta get it right and i'd rather the workers far as i could i was smarter than a lot of those folks well get a lock on the judiciary committee work with attendance and the. senator drove the republicans from nice to so we did and i was really proud of them when i got that i got the voting rights act instead of 25 years we've passed and in and out in the sixty's that never had to be a program you know going to always be extended to you for your sins and you want to happen to get all those out past dollars finally crossed. a group of. not only do we passed a whole range of piece of legislation the work around great didn't change. i thought boy a lot of you can see. well i did realize last night warning through the wall or.

all went down i got a warning to the korean war. going away from joe biden's take you live now to chicago where the man is giving a press briefing following up on the vice of the night of violence and that city and that system and we have a strength as individuals and communities and as a city to rise above this moment and push forward and we well. i mean a lot of hard decisions over the weekend and i know some of them are challenging for people. but i also have hope today on how we will move forward and heal as a city together. first i want you to see just a sample of the public servants we're been working hard literally night and day

to make sure that we are responding to the needs of residents all across the city. these are incredible public servants and community leaders who are at the ready to help and they happen superintendent brown commissioner 4 of them are to kirk commissioner as corrino of the business affairs and consumer protection department public health commissioner dr allison are really buildings commissioner on judy freedom streets and sanitation commissioner mr tully o.e.m. c m director rich guy this we also are a craze to see with us today malcolm crawford of the austin african-american business networking association thank you for being here sir. now i will speak to our broader long term response efforts in a moment but i want to provide an update on some immediate public safety strategy.

going the damage and violence that we saw saturday and our downtown a move area and we made the necessary decision of limiting access to only residents businesses police officers and essential workers that live in operate and are employed in those areas we needed to assess the damage and begin the recovery process we also did this in order to direct our police and other public safety neighborhoods particularly on the south and west sides to those neighborhoods that have been targeted by the same destructive forces that we saw saturday night in the downtown area that have for continued yesterday evening and will continue today as we reach strategically deploy resources in our neighborhoods focusing on their commercial course which have been targets of looting and violence and service

the economic lifeblood of so many communities particularly on the south and the west side in addition to our public safety personnel. we will be deploying and moving personnel from our streets and sanitation department our water department our department of transportation our buildings and business affairs and consumer protection into our neighborhoods on the south and the west side to assess the damage to assist small businesses and local chambers of commerce so that we can start the process now of rebuilding our key commercial corridors in our neighborhoods we will be deploying mare's office personnel to assist in these cleanup efforts. and i want to be absolutely clear on this there is no way no way that

we would ever let any neighborhood receive more resources and protection than any others ever and that's certainly didn't happen over the course of the weekend what we saw last night was completely heart wrenching to me personally and i know to many of you who i have spoken to and heard from updates a i received all day and night from our all of them are from local community readers about the attacks on local store fronts and particularly our small black owned businesses was nothing short of devastating i know that for many of you your life's work went into developing these businesses and commercial centers i know that for many of you your

blood sweat and tears went into recruiting is a sister come support a vibrancy of your communities and i want you to hear from me not only do i know that i and we will be your partner in rebuilding we will not let our city be in shambles when i appear on the west side last october to announce our invest southwest an initiative 700 and $50000000.00 city dollars that i committed to make sure that we were reversing the decades of neglect and lack of investment in these communities my resolve or certain and clear. it is no less no less now and if anything i'm even more determined because i know the need is

even more great after what we see over the last 24 and 48 hours we will rebuild and the city of chicago government will lead those rebuilding efforts we are not going to leave our neighborhoods a high that will not happen on my watch now i've heard some folks imply that police service services and resources weren't distributed equally yesterday or that somehow we chose to protect the downtown if the expense of the communities putting aside how deeply offensive that is for me as a black man for the superintendent as a black man and these other officers of high rank who grew up in these neighborhoods and communities and probably serve them every single day the fact of

the matter is exactly the opposite was true. the strategy yesterday was to add add more personnel and services to the neighborhoods on the south and west side and that's what happened the fact is that the violence that we saw in the looting that we saw spread like a wild fire. we're going to leave laura lightfoot the mayor of chicago there she was addressing allegations that resources were prioritized to certain more prosperous neighborhoods over that weekend of rising we're not going to leave any neighborhoods behind she said and they're concentrating on how we move forward and heal as a city while she was talking joe biden the presumptive democratic presidential nominee who we heard for a few minutes was still speaking and so too was the mayor of washington d.c.

muriel bowser of course it's impossible for us to to bring you all of these things as they happen simultaneously live but rest assured that we are listening here at al-jazeera as war of these live events bring you anything newsworthy that comes out of them i want to bring back in robinson what would buns again we were talking to him a few moments ago he's an assistant professor at howard university a puppet of political science while that was going on robinson the president. has said to govern as we heard from our white house correspondent that he was taking part in a video conference with with medicine governors about the events of the last few days he apparently has reported to have told them most of you are weak others they crack down more forcefully on violence in the cities what are we to make of that.

i think there are 2 things going on here one is through this recent wave of protests and even through the last few months of the pandemic the president has been effectively sidelined and governing the country in the united states emergency response is usually handled by the state either by the governors or by local governments and often through mayors mayors are the ones who have the power to dispatch police officers and governors are the ones who can mobilize the national guard within their state because mayors and governors have been on the front lines they're also the ones dictating the terms of response and capturing a lot of the media attention they're essentially taking the air away from donald trump and this is not something he likes the 2nd thing we're seeing though is that the president again is essentially trying to play to his political base his law in order messaging and lashing out at governors is something that is based on their stand is a purpose and message many mayors representing cities tend to be left leaning or

democratic and what the president is doing is essentially showing his partisan base that he can attack democrats and that he's likely doing this in hopes of essentially keeping the base loyal to him heading into the november election is that november election going to be anywhere near close with the country that's divided to the cities when it's swing one way or the other. it's hard to say this early out we know that democrats are more nationally popular right now the president has a very low approval rating relative to previous presidents it's right now in the low forty's and aggregate polls show that joe biden the democratic nominee is leading by about 10 points in critical swing states like michigan and wisconsin he's also leading by just under 10 points now as we get closer to november we'll see that these polls will become more accurate and that gap will likely lessen but

what is happening is essential that biden is the stablish in a strong lead donald trump's response has been to deny this the series of tweets earlier claimed that he in fact has a strong lead and well there's very little evidence for that again he is trying to give a message of strength to his supporters in hopes that they won't see this gap between him and biden is starting to pull away we were talking about whether the president should address the nation to attend to. some sort of. unity speech to bring that the nation together given his his his past told with language i mean if he if even if he does try that what he believes what will people think that he's sincere. the president really has exhausted sympathy with democrats and moderates particularly with young voters we see them moving toward

the democratic party and we find that they're less likely to accept messaging from the president republicans are more likely to accept messaging from him but with this whole array station between the parties polarization of the president has. exacerbated it's unlikely that he could 'd deliver a unity message or attempt. to sort of deescalate this controversy in a meaningful way. really gets to many thanks steve robinson would be in washington d.c. if it was mentioned by the way that one all that was going on was tension was focused on the united states the world health organization as director general has been addressing the bre the media that that address that briefing is still going on again here down to 0 we across that we're listening to what's going on at that press briefing we'll bring you anything newsworthy that comes out of it concerning the coronavirus pandemic back to the u.s.

though in some cities police offices have actually joined those who are protesting offices in california nel steering a rally this is a post made famous by the american football player coming to punish in response to police brutality against black people a sheriff in michigan told protests as we are with you before he and other offices joined them in which. let's move on to what else is happening in the world right now china has reportedly asked that state owned companies to stop buying soybeans and pork from the united states but appears to be further retaliation against threats by washington to end of preferential treatment for hong kong the u.s. president on the trump announced the move after beijing said that it would impose a new security law in the territory which critics say further erodes its autonomy hong kong enjoys special trade and travel privileges with the u.s.

which aren't extended to the mainland china is also hit out of president trump's threats to revoke the visas of chinese students accusing him of racism woman who made. the u.s. to immediately stop restricting and suppressing chinese students in the u.s. by using various excuses immediately revoke his wrong decision and respect and protect the legitimate rights and interests of chinese students in the united states let's get more of this now from observers katrina you in beijing. we have had no confirmation from beijing that it is in fact holding these imports but it could be a shot across the bow at the trumpet mr ation in retaliation for these threats made now beijing is furious about these threats made by the trumpet ministration and foreign ministry spokesperson jen as we saw earlier mentioned that these threats were that the u.s. essentially had no right to intervene with what china called its internal affairs

that beijing had the authority to correct what it described as the deficit and the hong kong national security law and also as we heard earlier said that these threats to curb u.s. chinese student visas would amount to racism as well as political persecution but i didn't think the most telling line there was jolly jen one the trump administration that following through on these threats would be in essential essentially undermining the bilateral relationship between the 2 countries as well as undermining the trading relationship and i think that could point to a move that beijing is not afraid to hold these imports or affect that trading relationship in response to this. we it all would also fly in the face of the u.s. china trade deal the phase one of the trade deal which the 2 sides signed in december last year and china during that deal agreed to increase as of u.s.

goods by $200000000000.00 over the next 2 years that analysts say that the relationship with between these 2 sides has gotten so tense and deteriorated so badly over the last few months not only because of this national security law but earlier because of the coronavirus that beijing could in fact not be afraid to walk away from this deal if it deems necessary. india's government says that it will begin to lift covert 19 restrictions from monday it gives its given states the power to do the same in normal high risk areas but sunday saw the biggest one day jump in the number of infections with more than 8000 new cases india correspondent elizabeth 4 on a reports from new delhi. the crowds are back on the streets of the world's 2nd most populous country india's government is easing restrictions on offices markets and public transport hotels and restaurants aren't allowed to open for another week the people lined up for street food opinion on the lifting of
