more than 50 u.s. senators appealed for the release of political activists and journalists facing dangerous conditions in egypt presents. to the youth sports news the los angeles dodgers are on their way to baseball's world series after completing a superb come from behind victory over the atlanta braves. so the number of people around the world to have contracted coronavirus has exceeded 40000000 a quarter of those are still active cases iran has reported its highest ever daily death toll at least 337 people have died of covert 900 over the past 24 hours and it brings the total number of fatalities up to more than 30000 and more than 10000000 cases have been reported across latin america brazil argentina and colombia among the top. 10 worst hit countries in the world and other nations

across europe including potent and italy are imposing more restrictions to tackle the new wave who factions wales is going into a nationwide lockdown for 2 weeks that starts on friday it is one of the worst hit areas in the united kingdom well in a moment we'll cross over to london to get the latest on the situation there from genoa hala monica yant of kiev is also standing by for us in rio de janiero but 1st let's go to dawson jabari who's there in tehran and this spike in the daily death toll in iran must be extremely concerning for everybody. certainly and so much so that just a short while ago on state t.v. the president hassan rouhani had his coronavirus task force meeting and it was broadcast live and one of the main messages from the president was that people need to not be alarmed there is no cause to panic but that the residents of the all the

different provinces need to listen to the health officials and their warnings and their protocols that is one of the main reasons health officials believe these numbers keep increasing and an important point to highlight is that the numbers that we get from health officials to their own advice as well they are not actual true numbers they believe the real figures to be much higher than the ones they put out every day because a number of people don't actually report their symptoms or their cases to officials many people don't get tested in the country under the health care system unless they develop symptoms that is how the covert tests are covered by the government but if you don't have any symptoms if you have contact with somebody and you want to be tested you have to pay for it for yourself but it's actually in terms of the average salary is quite expensive so it's one of the reasons many believe that this virus continues to spread another reason is that there is this is the 3rd week that we had in the capital shutdown of a number of various institutions including schools universities gyms barber shops

but many officials don't actually enforce these rules heard of many places privately that are still open which means people still continue with their daily routines so there isn't really this culture of trying to stay home even the president highlighted this he said if we ask people to stay home will force them government employees to stay home what they will end up doing is actually going out so it's not really productive for them also the economic situation in the country is not conducive to most people who need to have an income there is no subsidies provided by the government to cover those who lose their wages due to this outbreak so there is a lot of the. reasons why we've seen this increase and also health officials have warned that this particular brand of the virus and that we're seeing in this 3rd spike in iran is the most deadly so far and a lot of people that have died as a result of it have had preexisting conditions them over 80 percent of the people that have passed away from cold it have had those some conditions and so there is

a lot of different factors can treat contributing to this increase also thanks for the picture in tehran let's spin across the other side of the world to near in fact where monica. for us because what is it something like 11000 new cases in the past 24 hours or so. yes well in brazil it's going to where we're going to reach the 154000 dead over 5000200 cases of infections well the president of the 1st lady one of his sons they have all been infected and they're all well. although the numbers are increasing they've been rather stable compared to 2 weeks ago and they're just spiking up in 2 of the northern states. also another new thing is the governor of fall which is the richest

state in brazil they're working with the chinese on the scent of x.x. scene which should be here by december and has already said that at least in some polo if the vax when the vaccine arrives and if it works it's going to be mandatory but present also nat'l says the you cannot force people to be vaccinated and also recently i just spoke to us specialist who is working in the brazilian institute that's working together to for the vaccine which was also being tested in brazil and she said that even when the pandemic. is over the whole of it done team will still be endemic in brazil and perhaps in many other latin american countries where there's poverty and a lot of inequality. of course not in america as a whole as the pitch is serious to give us it gives the broad paint a broad picture of how it is that. well

among the 10 countries you have the most cases you have peru colombia and argentina also besides brazil and argentina is like a contrast because argentina had a much stricter lockdown people really respected to the rules like the president the minister or the opposition everybody have the same. gave the same instructions which is not the case in brazil where you had where the president downplayed the virus all the time. were there the health mental health ministers were were one was far good one laughs but although argentina was like an example it's now among the 10 that have most cases so people there are extremely worried. or amount of things about the money and here you know in brazil let's cross over the atlantic now it's in northern europe to london to be precise and john hall is

there and in fact is in wales where they've just announced a national look down how long for and what does it mean for the people. inevitably anything like this means greater pain to businesses perhaps more job losses down the line later in the year much as is happening really in other parts of the u.k. as well such an escalation in wales though in terms of restrictions in place to fight this 2nd wave of lockdown announced a little earlier by mark drake for the 1st minister of the devolved didn't stray sion in wales will last 2 weeks starting on friday that coincides with the states who have to break down essential businesses will shots education will largely be shut hospitality of those people will be told to stay home work from home unless they absolutely current and moderate food when he announced this measure said that it was necessary not just to try and control the 2nd wave and to give the national health service a much needed sort of breather edge of

a pretty dark anticipated winter but also crucially to provide a moment of restart a reset for the much criticized national test trace and i slight system built by the government here in london of course at a cost of $15000000000.00 it simply doesn't work it hasn't effectively produced the data required on localised outbreaks to be able to deal with and isolate them on a localized basis they won't be any answer to this problem short of a vaccine unless there is an effective test trace and isolate system of the world to try to get on top of that then of course not facing the only grim picture in the u.k. notably the north of england cities in the north and the midlands facing an uphill struggle to offer to students 3 turns to universities there in september and sent infection rates soaring liverpool is already under so-called tier 3 restrictions the highest the very high risk category newly introduced by boris johnson last week other cities the government has been trying to put under to 3 have been resisting their mayors led by andy burnham the labor labor mayor of manchester beans question

the science behind these measures and also saying this simply isn't enough money to compensate people who will lose their jobs and businesses who will lose income it's been a pretty an edifying row going on between tender. running street and those mayors and defying of course because it makes a mockery of forrest johnson's election plates to level up the big divide between the north and the south well downing street in the last couple of hours of this meeting ongoing now have counted saying hospital beds in manchester particularly look like they could reach capacity by the middle of november if andy burnham and the other mayors don't submit to these measures well they'll be forced to and quite possibly without the additional cash incentive or a general thanks for that to john hall there in london let's take this one further we can speak now into exxon a piece that kooser global public health expert of senior fellow at university college london school of pharmacy joins us now. let's stay with europe according to the world economic forum the continent is reporting more than 140000 cases

a day on average that's more than india brazil and the united states combined how is it got to this state. well unfortunately we can trace it back to this very relaxed summer period where many countries had emerged out of a certain walk down and had always acted as the virus had just disappeared on its. and we saw these air bridges reopen and even party is being held at septra however experts have been warning about this 2nd wave about the concerns for winter all her summer period saying that this is the time that we have an opportunity to build an effective team test and trace this to him so that we don't have to introduce more severe restrictions again

like we had to do you in march and april and because of the huge catastrophic consequences that it entails so all of this is really. turned around from trying to balance the health consequences with the economic consequences and perhaps doing it too rigorously too quickly without a saint's or courage or i think we've seen with. only sort of jump in there was a more not bombs no way with the shop down such as that was which we're seeing in wales are you saying that that's not the way to go then. no i'm saying this is what we have to do because if we go back to the summer period we have. no we haven't used that period to create better times some trace mechanism so it's not a surprise that all we had eat out to help out all over schools reopen drives to go back to eat dry have to go back to the office all with the fire still in

circulation so we went from low and it takes some time for it to reach back up to keep levels but how can we use that time to develop a better test into a system to do it in a more space or courage then this really aggressive measure that you lock down a circuit breaker perhaps when it be needed and we are now a stage because of this quick rate of hospitalizations or the concern about i.c.u. beds where we will have to. you know wales is now doing the circuit breaker and it's likely that many others will now follow suit because of because we want to avoid the full national law and this will be needed to do so ok what about a vaccine how far are we away from it and how quickly might to restore normality. so we do have. 200 candidates currently 42 are in

human trials so the robot the pipeline is robots which is great means we have different types of platforms be used as well it's likely that it won't just be one vaccine but multiple that are going to be distributed all around the world and there is positive developments with astra zeneca so we do hope that by the 1st quarter 20 train line there should be in the ability to get this 1st doses out but still if we look at who that's going to go to it just simply won't be possible to do it all at once so it is going to have to be a staged approach in the don't we chose working with gabby and set b. and countries to help prioritize create a framework so that the vulnerable and healthcare workers have access. but it won't be readily available to people straight away which creates an opportunity for falsifying medical products to men entering their markets and that's what i'm concerned about going forward we've already seen

a shift of criminal activity to work state p p e fake tests and all these other complications are unintended consequences ok long road ahead it seems on a piece of appreciate that thanks very much indeed for your expertise thank you thank you chief palestinian negotiator saeb erekat is in a medically induced coma while being treated for coronavirus complications he was taken to hospital west rusin from his home in the occupied west bank on sunday he thought to say he's in a critical condition after contracting coded 19 nearly 2 weeks ago. plenty more still ahead here on the news hour including another cease fire on the edge of collapse the u.n. chief says it was a pleasure and in our media are ignoring international calls to stop fighting will be life with the latest. calling for change in chile tens of thousands rally across the country some protests and into violence. a school coming up to barcelona

star madly on message can return to form when they begin their champions league and . all right vote counting is underway in bolivia's presidential election unofficial early results suggest that new music has won he's the candidate from the socialist party of former president evo morales who was forced out of office after a disputed vote last year now even though counting is still ongoing and former president evo morales is already declaring victory for say his party's candidate from his refuge in argentina ralitsa hailed the bolivian people from during a difficult year. undoubtedly today's a historic day once again the bolivian people have delivered to listen in democracy and perseverance the people have resisted a coup a defacto government to massacres a pandemic management marked by inefficiency and corruption several delays on the

elections and the worst economic crisis in our history. let's cross to bear his life for us in one if there is a. indeed the winner what would his victory mean for bolivia. well fundies elections sundays volta was a historic day for bolivia it happened peacefully with no major incidents which comes as a surprise of what we've been seeing in the country in the past year since there was a failed election that was canceled last year that left people taking to the streets to demand it what ellis west ignatius he's leaving the country and being exiled here in argentina and the protests we have seen in the country since then the cold counting process is still ongoing but unofficial results are already confirming a 20 point lead by side a say over. so what we know right now is that the

official results are still out there but they need to be confirmed by the of poll showed counting process that many are saying it's going extremely low and we satisfy is a former economy minister he was able what alice minister of economy for 12 years and many actually viewed to him what is no one has ever known me which is a period in bolivia that saw a period of extreme growth of nationalization of the gas industry where bolivia saw growth around a 5 percent growth rate a year and lifting millions of people out of poverty out of this is all happening in a country that's been polarized well many sectors of the country in cities like some . others there are staunch opponent solve this movement toward socialism sparty but in spite of this most of the analysts we have spoken to say that we set of this victory brings stability to a polarized country he also brings some certainty over the economy let's not forget

that while it is a country that's struggling right now with a very strong with covert 19 with the impact of corvet 19 in the economy aside from the political strife that has existed in the country but many of the people we have spoken to say that one of the main issues right now one of the most. the strongest benefits that we cited say that victoria would have is that it would continue to empower indigenous communities in that country while we were there last year there were thousands of people taken to the streets because they were afraid of what was happening in the until they were afraid of losing the benefits they had won why live on what at least one of us 1st indigenous president was in power well they have the guarantee now that they will watch those rights facts about the terms by reporting them from one as they are now fighting between armenia and azerbaijan or the new going to occur because killed another 1900 years in the disputed region i mean it says $729.00 of its soldiers have died since the end of september the un secretary general is urging both sides to respect and use these for the 2nd attempt

at a truce again on saturday the region is internationally recognized as part of us by john but it's controlled by ethnic medians let's cross now to huddle hoda abdel-hamid who's live for us in via in by sean and so the harder it sounds like this 2nd season is all but nothing is changing and it's being ignored by both sides in. well i would say that that cease fire exists on all but paper i mean since the very early hours both. and armenia have been accusing each other of violating it 1st now here by the end of sundays and by the end of the 1st day of that humanitarian cease fire as it by john said that more than 220 rounds of mortar rockets were fired from our mean your tour words by jan that was just yesterday and that has increased considerably today

there's been intense in shelling for example in the region of cotton factory was hit there there's been also. the shelling in these sort of occupied regions that surround and i go no care about now on the other hand if you look at the situation for us there but jan it has the upper hand militarily it's good news it's offensive in these new suit of south eastern front it's announced actually today that it has completely retaken now the region physically and has also taken a key bridge that is to this out that are going to care about towards iran so as it is making gains and at this point to position is well we have the military upper hand dymo meant a cease fire yes but a cease fire that would bring something in return and what you're hearing is that azerbaijan is looking for at least a timetable of total withdrawal of the armenian troops from not only this 7 regions

okupe i mean yes it's 1900 to $7.00 regions that surround now going to care about but also full nagorno karabakh itself that it has to be said that that ceasefire was supervised to concern was supposed to bring about a period of calm long enough only to swap bodies and wounded prisoners we've heard indications that maybe there is a move. towards finding a way of swapping bodies but we haven't heard about the fate of the wounded prisoners held on both sides but from the as a by journey point of view well why have a cease fire and a moment where we are making territorial gains and we have the upper hand and it has to be said that when you go around and speak to people even those who had been injured in attacks who have lost their homes well many of them tell you well it's been 27 years now we can make it now we have a mentor why back up now why have a ceasefire at this particular moment so is it going to happen will they be

international pressure for that to happen we will have to wait and see but so far indian jannat tional community has issued statements russia has broken to cease fires and none of them have come to play as a as of now or a leave there from now thanks very much indeed let's cross over to rory chalons who's you know a media's capital of europe he says it like it's about john armenians don't have much faith in the ceasefire. but of course people here are blaming his areas for that now we were filming earlier today at a school for a report that will have on al-jazeera and in a few hours time now the school was closed but it was full anyway full of women and teenagers who were volunteering to stitch together cut up bits of camouflage material and knots them on 2 great big necks now these camouflaged nets would then going to be sent to the front lines to help the

armenian. fighters there you know the armenian soldiers we were speaking to these these women unseen ages trying to get an idea of how they are feeling about the way things were going in this conflict and the sense there amongst these people was that it's not going very well for armenia they've seen the videos of harry drones picking off groups of young soldiers they know that there have been territorial losses and they're aware that in some ways the military tables have turned in the last quarter of a century from you know the time when the conflict flared up at its most serious and in the 1990 s. that was when armenia was a military school militarily stronger now we know the city the is aries with its sophisticated technology and its help from turkey is in a much stronger position than it used to be so they're aware things aren't going very well but they're still insisting that victory will be armenia's. dozens of

u.s. politicians are calling on the egyptian president. to release imprisoned activists and journalists 56 members of congress wrote a letter urging sisi to free prisoners who were quote unjustly detained for exercising their fundamental human rights they expressed alarm over the conditions in egypt to torricelli overcrowded prisons and said the danger is now amplified because of the risk of covert 1000 up write the letter specifically calls for the release of a number of politicians and activists but also al jazeera journalist mahmoud hussein has been detained for nearly $1400.00 days without trial after being arrested on a personal visit to see his family egypt's government has crackdown on dissent since 2013 that's when he led a military coup overthrowing democratically elected president mohammed morsi but now to sharif mansour who's the middle east northern africa coordinator for the committee to protect journalists joins us live from washington d.c. skype treatment so what is it do you think that has led to this letter being

written and sent at this moment a lot of things including the we might see presidencies when we might see a big shift and contrast of the policy of giving dictators around a little blank checks. and like president trump we might see any leadership. as a priority in egypt which is really needed at the moment what kind of pressure do you think this brings to bear on the egyptian president is it does not something he can just summarily dismiss and ignore and just file. well the fact that this is coming from dozens of house and senate members and colluding with

democrats and republicans and the fact that those people include it in the letter examples of how days told up to neighboring saudi arabia's crown prince m.b.'s of her shows and even given examples of have they used in punitive measures to delay collaboration televisions on how the who is and to even ban. us are much close to saudi at some point all of these impudent of measures could be utilized and he gypped which every year receives a lot of he was aid that there might be a chance that congress can play a role of conditioning those eads starting next year you mentioned the arms trade in us does have very lucrative weapons deal with egypt to what degree does that affect how the united states plays the issue of human rights within theses ministration. well we saw the c.d.c.

have been keeping from the beginning to be close to president trump he was one of the earliest who are leaders to meet with him in person. being elected and also trying things of illness his favorite taters and this close relationship has only resulted in an increase unprecedented manner of attacks including even against u.s. citizens. citizen families and i way that we haven't seen before and i think with congress tipping and there is probably more messages to come this is this is a federal step and they are trying to see what the government response is but there could be even more serious consequences including as we seen in the past it conditionality and in some of the. power of the congress

with a whole not just military economic assistance and training programs that benefits a lot of. egyptian army officials and security officials many of those sanctions have happened for example in. saudi officials to this day are banned from traveling and there are restaurants for them all over the world it's been a forlorn hope for a long long time for many of the imprisoned not for us and journalists not least our very own moment hussein has been detained for 1400 days should they allow themselves to feel hopeful now. i think there is hope that we're always have accountability and when some of the things that come of this message is that we may have even actions and accountability do you are in the illusion but

it's not the only way to will achieve accountability a lot of the people who are on the ground in egypt they are trying to build solidarity with their peers outside the country and this is one of the things of this letter. is that they are the practice of the king family members and friends inside egypt who are working was all related to people outside egypt as political hosts this is not acceptable and i think this can at least try to give the it some of the pressure. from people who are trying to advocate on behalf of imprisoned journalists. prisoners of conscience in each. petition refinance or from the committee to protect journalists thank you very much thank you for having. to lead here on al-jazeera battling blister cold temperatures in close shelters we met some of the venezuelan migrants looking for

for the migrants are managing to get through every every single day according to colombian government estimates and these numbers really picked up in the last couple of weeks a lot of it has to do as you were saying in your introduction with the reopening of the economies in receiving countries colombia of course but also ecuador and pitt rule and so many people in venezuela and some of them have actually gone back during the pandemic or are now starting their journey again a mostly by foot to the problem for many of them doe is that the or or what is making their. journey even more difficult now is the fact that the network of assistance that existed before the pandemic does not exist at this point most of the shelters along the way have not reopened and the colombian government seem to have been surprised by the numbers of people influx that has restarted

the few people trying to enter colombia. each step harder than the last listers in fatigues the various family down they soldier on including their 4 year old son stu young. they've been walking for 8 straight days from their hometown in central business where they've made it to colombia but are still 700 kilometers away from their destination but. want to. coffee we just want to do whatever construction mechanic anything to a be able to give food to my family i for the past 6 months in 1900 slowed to fly to venice wayland's to a trickle but as economies reopened paos and have hit the road again in a new phase of one of the world's largest exodus the pandemic is making their journey even more treacherous. but the border closed. or stopping

migrants telling them to go back. but we've been walking for days we have nothing to go back to this man says i and most shelters and soup kitchens along the way have been shut by officials trying to prevent gatherings i 2300 meters above sea level hundreds are sleeping on sidewalks braving cold temperatures there used to be 4 shelters here but none have been allowed to reopen. colombia's immigration story. 200. grams of the country but i say ill prepared to deal with their arrival. neighbor mark had converted their homes to offer hundreds food and shelter. now they are forbidden even to lend their mats to sleep in the street but they're still

doing what they can to help again this is. they need food the babies need milk or diaper the women need to play. to change decently but we can't offer this because they found it helping is a crime no but if the government won't do it will continue. as night falls otoh he does make the rounds to ensure nobody is sheltering migrants. while some pay whatever day have left even food for a truck to illegally give them a lift to find out that we have to go after 12 hours on the road then his family also made it to pump only to find the shelter closed that is. i don't know what he was doing i guess just the here on the street because what other option do we have . these are doing all they can to keep many swale and from coming but the forces encouraging the migrants to flee poverty and hunger are much stronger.

some $5000000.00 venezuelans have left their country since 2014 fleeing i bring flée sion food shortages and some of the lowest wages anywhere in the world and the colombian government fears that if they reopen the border with business where the hundreds of 1000 more will try to also leave by the end of the year and the coming year the border was expected to reopen or regionally on october 1st that they was moved it to november 1st that and just in the last couple of days in consideration of the jumpstart and the influx of migrants again the colombian government announced that instead the border will remain closed for the foreseeable future until they're saying that the conditions are not in place on this side of the border to receive this people especially during the colombian government says that they need help on part of the international community to be able to register

the venezuelans who arrive to be able to. test them for the coronavirus and assist them in their journeys shelters need to be set up again and nothing of this is in place now so for the time being the border will remain closed but as you. as you saw in our story many are managing to cross regardless oregon is under thanks for that and i was wondering if you then could come to them. demonstrations over inequality in chile have descended into violence with looters setting light to churches in the capital santiago protesters were marking a year since the movement began initially over the rising cost of transporting the waste widened into calls for social reforms and a new constitution on latin america editor lucien newman reports now from santiago was hundreds of thousands of demonstrators filled streets in plazas throughout

chile to mark the day one year ago when the country's social pressure cooker burst . there were dramatic performances and eluding to human rights violations committed by police was just cysts but there was also music and celebrations its entire families had come to show that their resolve to fight for social equality remains strong to that but today marks the day that chile awoke with fed up of the abuse of always being marginalized we had to commemorate and say that we want a new chill it was but the peaceful demonstration that so many had called for was not to be. just 300 meters from the main gathering in santiago who did then till set fire to 2 churches the 1st known as the paris of chile's police force then

they torched another regarded as a national heritage morning it was. was by the time firefighters arrived it was too late. shops were also needed the group had clearly come prepared to confront riot police and do as much damage as possible nearby thousands of demonstrators continued calling for more equality and respect for human rights these are in memory of some of the people who were killed last october 18th and the following days and months of protests that followed opposition leaders are now warning both sides that if the file and string demonstrations continues it could scare people away from going to the polls next sunday during the referendum. that referendum will decide whether or not chileans agree to write a new constitution

trying to compromise as much as possible i want to ask the protesters for a few things don't destroy government and private property don't do anything wrong and most importantly don't let there be fighting scotland has more now from bangkok . this protest is in the custody district of bangkok and this is one of 3 that were announced very late in the afternoon on monday and within 90 minutes we were hear of that announcement there are people showing up already in their hundreds it is swollen to more than a couple of 1000 now again there are 2 other locations within bangkok again announce at the same time there are 6 across the northern part of thailand also being held on monday evening now it's interesting how the organizers of the protest are doing this now they're announcing the protest location time late in the afternoon and the people come out very quickly now what's interesting is that they've said the protest leaders to protest organizers that everybody is a leader so everybody is participating and you can see that here also something that's interesting is that there's a very light if no police presence that's something that's kind of transitioned

over what we saw obviously last friday evening but one thing that the protesters are saying here they're going to maintain this level of protesting to put pressure on the government. the only thing that we can do is to keep coming out to show that we are not happy with the government. the monarchy reform is another important change perhaps the most important one in the past the monarchy played an important role behind many coups earlier in the day type police have said that they've ordered a regulatory body to investigate for media outlets for possible infractions of spreading false information and also spreading information that could incite violence now this is tied to that emergency decree that came out early thursday morning also part of that decree is a ban on gatherings obviously that's something the protesters are ignoring and saying they're going to continue to ignore. the u.s. special envoy to afghanistan says attacks are threatening to derail peace talks and what he calls inflammatory rhetoric does not help

a suicide bomber killed at least 13 people in the western province of go on sunday and tens of thousands in helmand province have fled increased fighting between the taliban and government forces taliban says excessive u.s. air strikes and its peace negotiations sidique city key is the afghan president's spokesman and he says the taliban should reevaluate its violent approach if it wants peace. i think it's an unfortunate masters that they are trying to send and which is violence despite the fact that the international community the atman people are now ready to talk to this group burd the continent ration of these kind of violence and brutal attacks on you have been people who can really pose a serious threat to the peace process that millions of afghans are hopeful of war so i think it's time for the taliban to to look at the near. behave in this look at they have to reassess what they are doing and and these should not just revise the

current abortion if you were just there for ending this war well 1st of all they are behind you that look at the office of the deliberate oftens upon a pox on him and will look at these. regular pacts that the phone of these me goes with explosives and the targets government offices and so there's not that. big claimant or deny it we know about who are behind this and that's the challenge of course these attacks is against the commitments they claim that they are doing something in the peace process so the the violates all the terms of that agreement that they made with the us in the family so the taliban has to realize that the rope to peace the former it is to end this once we do everything not only happen government but the international community what we all

do is to pursue the taliban to end this nonsense war and violence. the wall street journal is reporting that china has threatened to detain american citizens if its academics are prosecuted in the u.s. several chinese academics with undisclosed ties to military were arrested in the u.s. in recent months mark use of lying on their visa applications in order to conduct industrial espionage china has reacted to the report saying it will ensure the safety of foreign residents true to you has more from beijing on those reported warnings from china the seems to be quite a threatening message and intimidation in order to sort of warn the u.s. and for force them rather to stop persecuting chinese nationals in the u.s. we know in the u.s. has been quite a crackdown genetics security concerns on chinese academics at least 5 have been arrested and charged for failing to acknowledge that connection to china's military we also know that about $1000.00 chinese academics in the u.s.

have had their visas revoked also due to some security suspicions or concerns one of those academics who was detained was named tung joined she took refuge earlier in the san francisco chinese consulate before being arrested and detained and now this whole fiasco involving these 5 chinese academics has been a huge point of embarrassment for china and as we've heard earlier from jolly jen it's what they're calling political persecution saying that the u.s. is crying victim for what they think has been a sort of fight started by the u.s. itself now what is interesting about what china's foreign ministry spokesperson said today he said he did not flat out deny that there would be a response or some richard boucher or impact on u.s. nationals here in china he didn't flat out deny that although he did say that foreign nationals in china are protected as long as they do follow the law. so i
