the largest grouping and power like it looks like they could lose their majority. that, that, that what might been microns grouping might look to other conservative parties in parliament to help them form and aligns the system in france makes it hard for challenger parties to take on the president and his party. normally the party, the wins, the legislative elections is the one that the party of the president because the momentum is with him. people whose candidate lost in the presidential elections 10 to stay away. so turn out it's going to be important for mal shawn, but he hopes the people will turn out because there's enough momentum behind him to change the french political system. i'm guess, wait and see. thanks so much, but it's miss. now record number of female ministers have been sworn into a straight is newly elected government. 13 women have been selected to head ministries, including the 1st muslim woman primary found to the albany. the labor party wanna

of getting accustomed to being not any longer in the opposition, but in government. and then he's also backtracked on many of his key promises during his election campaign. like for instance, reinstating a state of emergency in south central chile rather than starting when he had called is a deep dialogue with armed groups and others who are unhappy. and i'm speaking now about the indigenous mom put a groups or claiming lance for i think that they believe is, has been owed to them. for the last 500 years. israeli forces have demolished 9 tenths belonging to palestinian families in the occupied west. bank pretence in myself for the offer belonged to palestinians made homeless by a demolition of their homes. 2 weeks ago, last month israel's supreme court approved the full st. expulsion of nearly 2000 palestinians from the area. this ready forces in the occupied west bank of shot

there was widespread anger, along with confusion of food shortages and a lack of access to emergency medical care. lockdown, also crippled supply chains and slowed the economy. property in car sales. the service sector and retail consumption all plummeted in april. analyst save recovery won't be quick, easy after the initial phase or there might be more disappointments because the reality is the consumer confidence is dampens. property market is still weak, although the weakness, the other part of the economy was due there and not address. and on top of that income growth has flowed significantly. so after the left of water restrictions, i think there is a lot of work has to be done. shanghai authority say the city has achieved a milestone in its battle against the virus in a letter. they thanked residents for their patients and apologized for the
