from around the world it isn't the 1st time the work was forced off the air in 1972 it was also shut down. this is al-jazeera. hello and welcome i'm peter w. watching the news our live from our headquarters here in doha coming up in the next 60 minutes coronavirus casey's past the 1000000 mark in india with some states reversing the lifting of lockdown restrictions. but when you wear a mask you have more respect. mixed messaging with the u.s. reporting another record high number of infections politicians are divided over the wearing of masks in public. if we do it right we can overcome

this crisis to the head of the european commission says the stakes could not be higher as e.u. leaders discuss a major financial coronavirus recovery plan. one of the story regional leaders trying to mediate in mali's deepening political crisis is tributes are paid to those who died in recent protests. and on time how much with the sports they are madrid they have won the spanish league title full record extending 34th time. man ending the club's 3 year wait for the championship. india has become the 3rd country in the world to record more than 1000000 cases of coronavirus that's after the u.s. and brazil in all 3 countries. the pandemic is wreaking havoc on health care

systems economies and people's daily lives some states in india and re imposing restrictions after the lifting of the nationwide lockdown last month there's concern many cases are now going unreported because of a lack of testing infections in the us have set another record more than $70000.00 in 24 hours that's the highest daily number recorded by one single country so far in total the u.s. says more than 3 and a half 1000000 cases brazil has now seen more than 2000000 cases hospitals there are almost at breaking point president is currently under treatment for covert 19 after dismissing the virus as a little flu we're live in all 3 countries will get more on the situation in brazil from journalist gustavo rubio in brasilia in just a moment kimberly how could the white house for standing by there 1st let's go live to new delhi and my colleague elizabeth per annum liz so what kind of impact is

this resurgence having on india. hi peter what we're seeing is more and more places as you mentioned bringing the. measure which is a lockdown to try to contain the spread of the virus back in with seeing something like nearly a 3rd of india's population of 1300000000 people facing some form of lock down restrictions whether we can lock downs as the saying and go a night fuse again and go all the entire state so india 2nd most populous states be hard with a population of nearly 130000000 people that's gone into lockdown for 2 weeks now most health experts will agree that not down that the outbreak in fact is better managed from the state level anyway given india's very large size and population but the issue is that not all states have the resources we're seeing

a real rise in cases in the south but the southern states a much better off financially and so where we have lockdowns in the south people are using the governments are using that time to really increase testing you know to improve contact tracing surveillance but when you look at somewhere like be had which is the poorest one of the poorest states in the country with some of the worst public health care i mean it tests less than a 10th of the number of tests that are being conducted in delhi so that is the real concern now as cases move from the big metropolitan cities like mumbai and delhi to the more rule developed areas how are they going to handle the outbreak are they going to be able to ok liz we'll leave it there many thanks elizabeth peron amount correspondent there covering what's going on in india let's take you live to the white house washington correspondent kimberly how could can really forgive me if

this sounds like a complete outsiders question but given where the numbers are going up and up and up why are these still scrapping them having a politicized fight over who should or should not wear mosques. without getting into u.s. history lesson i think that the short answer is that this is a unique amalgamation of states it's like having 50 different countries that each look out for their own independent means it's very different from a federal system of government and that is really something that dr anthony fauci of the court of virus task force talked about is that people keep asking why is there not a federal mandate it's because there are strong states rights in this country having said that we're seeing that play out in the state of georgia where just yesterday we saw the governor there filing a lawsuit against the mayor of atlanta one of the biggest cities in that state's essential he saying that her mandate of wearing face masks had gone too far was to

were strict of again personal freedoms highly valued particularly in certain states that lean conservatively but now we're hearing in just the last few moments peter something rather perplexing that it appears that that governor in georgia has changed his tune seeing the case is searching in his state now sin courage and people in that state to wear face masks at least for the next 4 weeks what you can take from all of this is the outer confusion as cases of cope with 19 continue to surge across the united states. dramatic yukon's across the country as many states we too dejected the idea of telling people to we face masks or seeing keeps is such that everyone can adopt the practice of organ face mask for the next 4 weeks we will be able to get coburn 1000 under control by the new georgia governor is going to court to ban cities and municipalities making masking

in public compulsory camps says looking orders can't be more restrictive than measures he's put in place his team only only are jews the winning of minus. the governor has taken a formal position on mass in the state of georgia so whatever the motivation is i think that at the end of the day we all have to do the right thing because it's the right thing to do and what the scientists are telling us is that the right thing to do is to wear mask mask are not a political statement mask are a public health to a necessary public health to the state of georgia continues to send mixed messages to everyone that lives here cases and no such thing in 40 of the 50 states hospitals are being stretched to the limit we were previously seeing about one in

10 or even one in 8 of our tests that we were doing in the community they were coming back positive now we're seeing one and or so about 25 percent of all the tests that we're doing which we've also ramped up but we're seeing more of those that are coming back as that which concerns us for increased transmission in the community the u.s. government centers for disease control recommends winning a mask as do most medical professionals but it's only mandated in about half the states many retailers have their own policies no mask no service but that's what some angry reactions including one customer drawing a gun in florida you know new york's governor under cuomo has enlisted one of the most trusted voices in america to get the message across like when you wear a mask you have my respect. because your mask doesn't protect you. it protects me morgan freeman appears on these public service announcements are

doing a medicare to mask up but it's clear the issue has become political and in america in 2020 political means divisive but many governors are warning if things don't improve when you'd stay at home orders might not be far behind alan fischer al-jazeera can be i guess if it says well one of the next big punctuation marks is children going back to school is that debate politically as much of a hot potato as the wearing of masks. i think it is in some cases because you have to remember that the schools are really the focal point of where children receive a lot of services and what we see in the united states is when it comes to online a learning which is the alternative to being physically in a classroom there's a real divide when it comes to the haves and the have nots in other words not

everyone can afford the y. fi necessary to support that type of learning particularly in communities of color so what we're seeing in urban areas is this push to try and get kind of a hybrid system whereas those that feel comfortable staying home that have the technology to support it they will be allowed to potentially stay home whereas the students that need support in classrooms would be allowed to go to the classrooms when it comes to kids there seems to be less political politicize ation having said that i want to quickly talk about one poll because as we've talked about this mix messaging that's coming out in terms of this white house on what to do about for a virus in the strong states rights eva though there is that history of independence in the states it does show in the poll numbers that americans are looking for a strong central message from the president one that they're not getting in fact these latest poll numbers seem to show a continuing decline in terms of the president's approval rating when it comes to handling this crisis 60 percent of americans now believe the president is not doing

a good job they would like a strong central message one they're not getting kimberly thanks very much let's bring in genesis rubio 2 from brasilia he's the founder of the brazilian report an online news magazine website covering politics and the economy in brazil gustava great to talk to you again why you see. the numbers going in precisely the wrong direction. well brazil reopened too soon brazil is may be the one case in the world where states begin to reopen in a non essential activities began getting the go from authorities before curbs were downwards trend brazil's number of daily deaths has plateaued that around 1000 new desperate day we show no signs of slowing down and cases continue to rise especially interior of the country where health care network is

much less present then in big centers and which could lead to to a higher portion of the us in the near future so it's super early in the morning with you any government reaction to the latest figures not so much this government has been know to has notably denied that the severity of the coronavirus and actually the latest we had from president durable so now there is that this fight all evidence that are entering health minister is not doing an excellent job he said that he will stay put and i remind you that it has been 2 months since we don't have a definite of health minister or health minister continues with that interim tag for the past 2 months health care workers in brazil clearly at the leading edge of the fight against coronavirus along with generally speaking the health care system

if it gets as bad as it might to commit health care system sustain what it's already gone through can it do more of the same. it really depends on where you are because in brazil we are 'd a huge country we have 27 states and 27 very different realities so in some states like for instance the health care network is more is better structured and is more capable of handling the demand but when you go for instance to the amazon states which were the 1st ones to collapse back in march and april in there for instance in the state of missouri as the capital men now is the only city with an intensive care unit so thousands of people have to go into a boat and the right for hours before they can get to specialized medical treatment so it really depends on where the curves would go up if we're talking about the north and the northeast of brazil which are the poorest see the poorest regions in

the country the consequences can be much more severe that being said where i am right now but as you know it is a region with a very high development index and still we are seeing curves enough taken infections that have led the main hospital in brazil's capital to have over 90 percent occupancy rate in terms of i.c.u. bads ok we'll leave it the good stuff out of there in brasilia thank you very much . thank you. plenty more still to come here for you on the search engine news hour including millions are forced from their homes after china's worst flooding in decades. also ahead why a former president of gambia is about to lose his multimillion dollar mansion in the u.s. . and in sport we'll tell you how tiger woods fit on his return to action after 5 months we want to.

turn our attention to europe now because e.u. leaders are meeting in brussels the 1st time in months to negotiate a qubit 19 recovery plan a proposed $860000000000.00 worth of a rescue package is aimed at pulling the e.u. out of what could be its deepest ever recession talks last month ended in deadlock the use for biggest economies germany france italy and spain back the proposal some others do not we are at the beginning of this summit now and the stakes couldn't be higher because if we do it right we can overcome this crisis stronger and emerge stronger from the crisis all the necessary pieces are on the table and a solution is possible and the solution that is what our people in europe expect from us because it's their jobs that are at stake and the risk of the virus still

persists and the whole world is watching us on this does have no need for song kind of we're not sure if we'll be able to come to a solution yet although we are hopeful but we have to be realistic it will require a great deal of compromise from all of us if we are to achieve something that's good for europe and something that's an appropriate response to the economic difficulties we're facing and i expect negotiations to be very difficult. the taj about what al-jazeera correspondent tracking the big story for us. really tough negotiations over the next days perhaps what are the sticking points. a very tough negotiations because a you pointed out there you have the you basically divided over whether or not it is ready to reach an agreement and sign off on this major recovery fund deal what's on the table is a proposal from the e.u. commission more than $800000000000.00 recovery fund aimed at trying to help the

economies in europe that have been battered by the coronavirus pandemic the idea is that the e.u. commission would pour money off the financial markets then distribute it amongst member states as a series of grants or loans where needed but the main sticking points are really that although on one side you have countries like germany and france who say that this is the time for solidarity and we need this money to help europe on the other side you have more fiscally conservative nations austria sweden denmark and netherlands amongst others who say that they don't want to be involved in what is essentially a shared debt scheme now the big sticking points are really is this too much money is the fun too big some of those more conservative countries would like the fund to be a lot smaller they're also concerned about how this money will be distributed are we talking about grants and loans or just loans and there are also attachments to whether or not a member states should get this money so leaders will states leaders i should say

will talk about whether if for example one member state was to be given some money as a grant or as a loan should fact come with conditions for example having to make reforms to their economy does this really i guess in a sense cut to the heart of the question about what the e.u. is for this is being seen as a crunch summit what's at stake for the e.u. here. that's right the french president emanuel macro has said basically that this is it is a make or break moment if you like because the very future as far as he's concerned all of the e.u. is a stake because if this is a time where the e.u. does not rally together does not come together in a show of solidarity and unity and help we can member states states that have been really badly battered by the pandemic i'm thinking of italy and spain for example then that could feel

a real sense of euro skepticism in those countries in europe skepticism could end up fueling the breakup of europe in the future so that's why you have leaders like mark roll out like merkel saying it's really important that the e.u. stands for what is supposed to stand for that is you know see it specially in a time of crisis in the year was quite going to criticized at the beginning of the pandemic for not rallying around for not having a coordinated response to the pandemic now is the time where they really want to show that in fact they are there to help each other at this time of crisis natasha thank you very much natasha correspondent there reporting live for the news hour from paris. a rising 1000 cases in barcelona has prompted the spanish authorities to urge people to stay at home again for at least the next 2 weeks spain has recorded a steep jump and infections of thursday with 580 new cases the majority in catalonia and arrogant regions cinemas theaters and night clubs have been closed and

gatherings are restricted to 10 people more than 28000 been linked to the virus. the police in sudan have fired tear gas to disperse demonstrators who are opposed to changes made to the country's legal system and its laws hundreds of protesters have been running outside the great mosque in the capital khartoum there against amendments to laws allowing non muslims drink alcohol the government has ordered the closure of major mosques across 3 cities to stop demonstrations. members of the west african bloc co-ops are in mali today to mediate an escalating political crisis between the ruling party and the opposition the delegation has met what's known as the june 5th movement led by an influential. supporters of that protest movement want the president. to resign they say he's been unable to solve mali security and economic problems quito however has heated some of the divine from the protesters he's promised to form a national unity government and to dissolve the constitutional court demonstrations

began last month over the outcome of parliamentary polls held earlier this year to nick carr who is covering those developments for us from dhaka in neighboring senegal nick welcome back again good to talk to you there are several things coming together today in bamako just walk us through what's going on. right now crowds are gathering inside of mosque in what is a day of prayer. there are thousands of people gathered there and peter i've been inside that mosque that can cater to hundreds but not thousands of people just to give you the sense of how many people are participating in this not just. neighborhood but in the capital bamako and throughout the country there's tension there's a sense of there's a somber mood as part of the trip. but we're all just. where the money in government deployed its special commando is normally used to

fight terrorist activities and terrorist attacks in the capital they were used to fend off protesters that were demonstrating against president. the move the national movement of civil disobedience continues protests that are still for president. to resign for the national assembly to be dissolved but meanwhile today as these gatherings and these tributes are being paid to those that are being killed the prime minister we see say is meeting with those injured those protests that have been injured by. this a curative forces he also has said that he is launching investigation as to why this particular commander was deployed against the population against protesters peter we'll leave it there we go a bit of a crackle on the line but you'll keep us up to date i'm sure we'll come back to you in the next half. beijing says u.s.

officials have quote lost their minds and go mounted their time on china in response to reports the white house is considering a travel ban against chinese communist party members. i mean nobody in the united states has come out to officially clarify whether this is fake news or not but i think if this report is true then they are brazenly choosing to set themselves against 1400000000 chinese people brazenly standing in opposition to the chinese people who make up one 5th of the world's population this is totally against the wishes of the people of both the united states and china. the u.k. has entered the fray by buying chinese tech giant huawei of course from its high speed mobile network and a couple of days ago concerns about security katrina you reports from beijing on what has been a fraught week for us china relations. home called is known as asia's a world city but the u.s.

government says that nickname no longer applies washington has revoked the territory special economic status as punishment for the newly imposed national security law from now on says the u.s. it will treat hong kong like mainland china the chinese government has condemned the move saying it will respond with sanctions we would see the chanson not only to up hold our legitimate interests china will make the necessary responses by sanctioning the relevant personnel and entities on the u.s. side we urge the u.s. to correct mistakes and not implement this act stop interfering in china's internal affairs critics say the new security law strips hong kong of its freedoms and autonomy guaranteed to 50 years in the 1997 handover green meant for the u.k. the chinese government says law abiding residents and business people won't be affected. but several companies are moving forward plans to relocate including the

new york times which is shifting some of its operations to south korea china has also hit back at the u.k. government for banning chinese telecom company hallway from its 5 g. networks warning that chinese investors should reconsider doing business there so. this is about the u.k. at all costs politicizing commercial and technology issues this is about china facing major threats in its investment security in the u.k. and it's about our confidence in whether the u.k. markets can remain open fair and nondiscriminatory. us president donald trump has taken credit for britain freezing out. we confronted untrustworthy chinese technology and telecom providers we convinced many countries many countries and i did this myself for the most part not to use while away britain's government says its decision has nothing to do with donald trump but that hasn't proven time to

officials here in beijing say the u.k. is co-leading with the u.s. to oppress chinese businesses and warns that china will do whatever it takes to protect its companies and core interests chinese state media says any retaliation against the u.k. should be painful and a public a warning to other countries the china won't be bullied however china moves forward it faces an uphill diplomatic battle in a world filled with increasing tension and fewer friends katrina you al-jazeera beijing 140 people are dead or missing during the worst floods for decades in many parts of china thousands of soldiers have joined the cleanup operation millions have been evacuated from their homes the flood damage is disrupting factories including exports of medical equipment to fight coronavirus. monsoon rains all across south asia of course flooding and landslides they're being blamed for the

deaths of $221.00 people in the last month more than a 1000000 people are stranded in the power and also in india also this hour on the indonesian island of silhouette of sea rescue workers are looking for survivors from flash flooding and landslides there at least 30 deaths have been reported so far hundreds are homeless with thousands more affected floods are common in the area but a rise in deforestation is being blamed for making them much worse. if you were ok my talking flooding in europe jenny but not nearly as well we've had flooding in europe. just a sweet innocent rental downpours and in palermo but actually it's about the other type of weather which is to say the heat so let me tell you about that because that is not giving us some problem we've been desperate for this weather of course to come back across into the summer sunshine but as i say across the southwest it comes with a separate problem this is as you can see a beach in portugal people enjoying that for fine warm sunny weather however very close there are also some wildfires the firefighters have obviously been fighting

this but a few days ago in fact about a week ago there was a much bigger fire to the north of here 200 firefighters were involved one fireman actually died and of course in portugal these fires are very common throughout the summer months but that doesn't mean to say there's obviously no danger there's a more very hot dry weather in place in fact across portugal there's a heat wave for more central and interior places not along the coastline you can see elsewhere very cloudy picture plenty of rain across the central and southeastern areas and that will continue to work its way eastwards as we go on for the 1st part of the weekend that rain coming down across areas of the u.k. but when you look at the heat you can see exactly where it is across the southwest but also beginning to build back in again across areas of germany but really temperature wise vienna one of the coolest fall certainly on saturday we've got quite a bit of rain in the way that's heading its way further eastward so it will clear eventually and a warm day on monday and then across into london it actually gets cooler as the days go on paris is not too bad temperatures in the high twenty's but again the

best weather really is going to be for berlin but in particular madrid in the southwest and even warmer down into southern spain as a always that danger of wildfires ok jenny great to see you talked to some. still to come here on the news for you the u.s. tells the e.u. it should do more to tackle those define the u.n. arms embargo in libya plus. an equally gauge it signals asylum seekers center looking at how many people are struggling to cope during the global pandemic after being left out. government support packages and into malone revive their hopes a new stereo title race football action coming up in the sports news with santa in about 020 minutes. on counting the costs cold war true could the u.s. break conchology spread to the dollar on the verge of another currency shot for turkey at war in libya and syria and president putin hope to kick start the economy

welcome back let's just recap your top stories for you here on the al-jazeera news hour the number of coronavirus cases in india has now gone beyond the 1000000 mark more than 25000 people have died there are fears the actual number of infections could be much higher because of insufficient testing. the georgia governor is urging people to wear a mask for 4 weeks to help stop the spread of coronavirus but he says he won't support making it mandatory because it is an enforceable the u.s. has reported more than $70000.00 cases in 24 hours a new record. a new leaders are meeting in brussels for the 1st time in months to negotiate a qubit 19 recovery plan the rescue package costs nearly $860000000000.00 but talks so far have ended in deadlock. a top official of the u.s.

state department says the european union needs to be more critical of countries that violates the u.n. arms embargo in libya david schenker who's assistant secretary for near east affairs says the block is biased and only criticized turkey's involvement in the conflict because the shanker says the e.u. isn't doing enough to stop violations by countries such as the u.a.e. or egypt. is an associate professor at the haasan calgon chill university and formerly with turkey's ministry of defense he says there are more benefits for the e.u. working with turkey rather than working against it. they have. you know. clocks. in accordance with the decisions but some members of this 4 creation like france and greece are courting how far that means they say was to the linkage between turkey and libya and they were not fair

enough check. to libya and also. rudd's many problems syria moscow or dubai. sharing. talks of the mediterranean sea and also hope france as you know is the gate of overall african continent that is more practical. so why. government because when they support to act they have more to lose in the mediterranean and add to politics and also african politics well the turkish president mr erdogan has criticized the u.a.e. and egypt for their roles in supporting the libyan wall orderly for half of egypt's president abdel fattah el-sisi has threatened to arm tribal leaders who back half of which is illegal sisi says his country would support have to force is if the government in tripoli and its turkish airlines renew their assault on the city of

sirte. are the steps taken by egypt in libya and its support to have sure that egypt is entering an illegal approach also the abu dhabi government in particular is behaving like a pirate through supporting the coup with large quantities of arms and money on and this indicates the position of the 2 countries in libya there is the legitimate government of iraq on the one hand and on the other hand there is the regime. the police in the southwest of iran have dispersed protesters angry at the ailing economy and death sentences for 3 demonstrators in similar unrest last year the security forces fired tear gas in the city of internet access was disrupted as demonstrators showed videos of the rally online judges on tuesday up held the execution of 3 men they were detained or arrested last year hundreds of protesters forced their way into an oil production sites in southern tunisia on thursday they

were demanding jobs and more government investment in the region the largely peaceful protest was the latest in weeks of unrest and political turmoil on whedon's day as prime minister resigned as a foreign minister has been sacked for what the president calls quote meaningless negotiations with neighboring armenia at least 16 soldiers and civilians have been killed in cross border attacks since sunday fighting has resumed after a brief cease fire robin for a walk or reports homes damaged daily life disrupted lives lost in azerbaijan's region this is the human cost of the fighting. didn't have a. last phone call to her father she could hear artillery in the background so he went out after breakfast and was hit by a show no one was with him when he died she said.

armenian civilians are also suffering a ceasefire brokered by the o.s.c. on wednesday broke down on thursday morning this is the armenian defense ministry says his the village of a good party. later on thursday azerbaijan's president ilham aliyev sacked his chief peace negotiator his foreign minister. there was little slinky unfortunately recently our diplomacy is not compatible with the successful development of our country and some cases it isn't gauged to meaningless work meaningless negotiations they just voice not only. john of had been azerbaijan's top man in the goshi ations over the status of nagorno karabakh the 16 years of armenians to control of the disputed territory in a regional war in the 1990 s. in which 30000 died as a by john wants it back foreign minister moment europe was never the source of

policy he was always the man implementing decisions but if you want to prove that you are taking decisive action then getting rid of your long standing foreign minister and saying that we've had enough is a sign i guess to the public from the president that he is doing something firing a chief peace negotiator the failing to do his job could mean a fresh start with negotiations or it could mean more of what president aliyev calls offensive diplomacy robin 1st year walker al jazeera tbilisi. india's defense minister is visiting the disputed border region at the center of a disagreement with china russia saying is reviewing security in the indian administered region of le duc if all is fighting last month between indian and chinese troops in the gulf one valley the 2 sides blame each other for the violence but have agreed to negotiations. taiwan's top representative in hong kong has returned home after facing what's described as unnecessary political obstacles

taiwanese media reports the diplomat refused to sign a statement saying taiwan is part of quote one china taiwan says it's an independent democracy and not part of the mainland taiwan's condemned china's imposition of a new national security law in hong kong which critics say further restricts freedoms. a former president of gambia is about to lose his multimillion dollar mansion in washington d.c. if the u.s. justice department succeeds in court jamie is alleged to have used the proceeds of bribery and stolen government funds to buy the home he also owned 280 other properties using 100 private bank accounts allegedly general gambia for 22 years before fleeing the country after losing his reelection bid 4 years ago let's bring in survey gallup she's a human rights lawyer and formerly a lecturer at the university of gambia so we galloped welcome to the news are so many properties so many bank accounts how did he allegedly manage to do it.

i have to say i don't know too much of the details and i know that there is and the commission investigating the alleged corruption that took place and to the general regime and i know that in the and in the proposed civil forfeiture complaints the american government has alleged that that was that is investment of public funds and also corruption in particular with. the telecoms industry and with the case a trillion to 3 what does this tell us about his more than 2 decades occupation of the presidency. i think it confirms what many already believed was true and so the truth and reconciliation reparations commission has been investigating both corruption and human rights abuses that took place under the jammy regime and it was alleged that

when germany did finally relinquish power and said. it was actually he took a significant amount of public funds with him leaving. the gun there kind of public pot basically penniless so this is a confirmation and i guess international confirmation of what i think many already suspect if that's true ok if these allegations of corruption all of them are shown to be true at some point in a few weeks or a few months you talking about 280 properties 100 bank accounts he can't have done this just in a vacuum this must have been a system there must have been people working for him and allegedly getting some sort of payback. so allegedly. the house that is under investigation at the moment was owned by trusts that was set up by germany's wife the former 1st lady of the gambia and it's alleged both by various.

n.g.o.s doing investigations alongside the commissions in the gambia and also by the us government in the civil forfeiture complaint that this was a widespread problem so not only was it jamming this was. something that was just common across the government when they were in power and it involved significant business owners in the area as well so it wasn't within a vacuum in fact the allegations seem to suggest that it was. part and parcel for the gambian government over 20 years in power so if you just put this in context for me you know on a sliding scale of corrupt former presidents or prime ministers where does this rank because we're talking about with him apparently an awful lot of money

yes i again i have to say i come at this from a human rights perspective so i won't pretend to be an expert on money laundering or corruption. we are seeing and we've seen it in the u.k. we used and the use of and in the hearts crave and. undisclosed orders and so we are i gave that to people who were in power and he used that position of power to. embezzle money to steal money. at an almost global effort now to ensure that those people don't actually get to benefit from so i can't comment on the scale i just don't know enough but what is what we can see from this effort by the u.s. government is a global effort to challenge corruption on this grand scale which we have seen in gambia but we also have seen in many other countries not only in africa but in

i mean used to let's lighten the mood just a touch with all the sports news thank you so much a real madrid to have won the spanish league title for 34th time victory over very saw them secure the championship with a game to spare 2 goals from kevin benzema helped trail 221 victory this win coming as the their closest rivals at barcelona last against the sona well have won all 10 now all the games spanish football received in june the team a lifting the trophy in an empty stadium all games are being held behind closed doors with no fans to corinna. with speedo. i'm very happy at 1st the total was phenomenal but this one's got a special feeling after being locked up at home for 2 months and then we came back and we prepared ourselves in

a different way we managed to win the spanish league which in my opinion is the most difficult to win but i think we did so successfully and that's based on you know a lot of sacrifices so look i don't know what to do now but i'm just very very happy . well with no support is currently allowed in the state and due to the pandemic fans what's real strength in bars and cafes in the spanish capital more than 300 police officers were present in the streets to discourage fans from gathering in large numbers due to covert 19 protocols. all join us now in barcelona based football writer. rick it's a 34th title for real madrid how sweet of a tryout is theirs for the team and for his indian side that. hello it's really really sweet because real madrid have not done well in the league or recently in the past 2 seasons before this that comes 19 points and 17 points away from barcelona so for them to win the league in such convincing fashion after the

coronavirus break has been really really impressive it's only their 2nd title in 8 years which shows just how difficult it is to win the league especially when barcelona have leonore messi who has been widely considered the best player in the world over the past decade that's that's really difficult challenge for madrid to consistently beat a team that contains messi because madrid in the champions league we've seen them thrive in the sort of situations where they can play with a bit more torn a minute nous and a bit more maybe wrote ride the punches a bit and have a little bit of luck whereas in the league it's really hard you can't win the league based on luck because you play 38 games and that's why visit dan it's the most important thing like we heard him say just there he is the real world with this break we've mentioned that barcelona have dominated the league for many years how israel's victory sell to add the new camp will also what messes reaction who look very disappointed. yeah you know message reaction was really really big news

because he doesn't often talk he doesn't come out and speak to the media especially after a defeat but that's what he did yesterday and when messi speaks you have to listen and he wants big changes at barcelona which shows you what an impact it is at the club to lose the league title to real madrid who obviously they're bitter bitter enemies especially given that when the league resume ducks the 3 month break but sloane who are 2 points ahead it was in their hands and they threw it away they drew with severe they drew with south of ego they drew the letter k madrid and not let real madrid sweep into the lead because they have been a machine since it's come back the right attitude in the right mindset was barcelona's attitude as messi himself said yesterday has been very fragile he says other teams clearly want it more than barcelona do and have more desire and passion in the way they play and that has been laid bare in the results going back to a year now messi who has that report who called off all negotiations over the

extension of his contract with the club if he does decide to go where do you think he would. lynam messy for me i think i think it's hard to see him leaving barcelona certainly in the near future despite what he said despite what he's done what he wants is a reaction from the club for them to give him some support but if he when he eventually does leave it will come at some point he has previously said he'd like to go back to argentina play for a new was a boy is which is is his bird club i don't know whether that's going to be possible certainly that the state of affairs in argentina was writing football is a little bit messy he might end up somewhere in america i think that could be the most likely destination from actually one of the m.l.s. sides are football writer rick sharma live from barcelona thank you very much for that. plane to milan have a 5 there hopes of winning italy's top division and they capitalize on leaders eventis drawing of their last 2 games by beating straw 4 nil off 1st day the win
