♪ >> i think that people are so disconnected they feel like this can only happen to a drug addict or an alcoholic. >> most of the people actually don't have a substance abuse problem. mental health issue. but when you come down here, you can get one quickly. >> this happens to battered women. this happens to our vets. this happens to single mothers. this happens to people who get laid off. at any time, this could be our story. ♪ >> it's about putting some light and learning how to fix a situation instead of just covering it up. >> yeah. >> you can cover it up, but then it builds more of an infection and then it spreads because you never find a solution to fix your sore. you know, because this is a sore for america. >> yeah. >> this is not just an l.a. story. we think of houseless people as

living outside of american society. we think of them as not our responsibility anymore. but the last time i checked, society extended outside of our home and into our streets. it was once said "we are each other's keeper," but in l.a., by gdp, the third most powerful city in the world, there are definitely resources available to address this problem, we just don't got the political will. for now. hello and welcome to our viewers joining us here in the united states and all around the world. you are watching "cnn newsroom." i'm rosemary church. just ahead -- >> it's you who have created the hate and the division. what america needs is for you to

be stopped. the mayor of portland, oregon delivers a scathing response to the u.s. president following another weekend of violence in his city. plus, joe biden and donald trump duel over race and violence, offering different versions of the future for america. and india reaches another coronavirus milestone. how the country is responding to a rapidly rising case total. good to have you with us. so let's start with two american cities that are seeing protests and division this summer. crowds in portland, oregon are gathering for another night of protests against social injustice. this a day after a man was

fatally shot as demonstrators faced off with trump supporters. in kenosha, wisconsin, officials are extending a curfew ahead of a visit by president donald trump. the governor wants mr. trump to cancel his trip. portland's mayor had strong words for the president as well. >> for four years we've had to live with you and your racist attacks on black people. do you seriously wonder, mr. president, why this is the first time in decades that america has seen this level of violence? it's you. who have created the hate and the division. it's you who have not found a way to say the names of black people killed by police officers, even as people in law enforcement have. and it's you who claimed that white supremacists are good people.

your campaign of fear is as anti-democratic as anything you've done to create hate and vitreal in our beautiful country. you've tried to divide us more than any other figure in modern history. and now you want me to stop the violence that you helped create. what america needs is for you to be stopped. >> mr. trump responded with tweets hammering on the issue of law and order and insulting the mayor and his election rival joe biden. on sunday biden warned we must not become a country at war with ourselves. he went on to say the temperature in the country is higher, tensions run stronger, divisions run deeper and all of us are less safe because donald trump can't do the job of the american president. that will be the theme of biden's campaign speech in pittsburgh on monday.

and cnn's security correspondent josh campbell joins us now live from portland. so, josh, talk to us about what the scene is right now on the streets there this hour and what more you're learning about the shooting victim and the circumstances leading up to his death. >> hi, rosemary. tonight is much different than what we saw last night. it is mostly peaceful out tonight. there was one incident just a short time ago where we were outside of a police precinct where a number of demonstrators had gathered outside this police station here just outside of downtown portland. and there were a few people in the crowd that were throwing some type of projectiles at the police. the police came on the loud speaker and declared the entire gathering an unlawful assembly, warning that they were about to disperse the crowd using tear gas and other crowd

dispersements. that then led a lot of people to depart. so that is the only thing tonight, really, we've seen, and, again, that comes after a very violent start to the weekend on saturday night where you had protesters who were out, as well as hundreds of pro donald trump supporters that came in by caravan. that led to a number of clashes between those trump supporters and other protestors. police telling us they made several arrests. now, there was also that one incident, as you mentioned, a gunshot victim, a person was shot. "the new york times" saying that that person had a hat on that had an insignia of a far-right group. that then led police wondering whether they would see another influx tonight of far-right sympathizers coming in to seek retribution. we haven't seen that yet, but that is something that police remain very on edge and looking for. as far as the investigation, police aren't releasing a lot of information. we do know that the u.s. fbi as well as the alcohol, tobacco,

firearms agency, they are now involved. the federal government trying to investigate that shooting. yet to be seen whether they hold anyone accountable. they have no suspects at this hour, but, again, just a very tense time now here in the city. officials waiting to see whether there will be any type of retribution for that shooting, rosemary. >> and, josh, you've talked there about it being a -- much calmer this evening. is there a sense that protest leaders have called for that? and do you know who is heading up the more violent parts of this protest or rioting? >> yeah, so, you know, during the daytime, protests here for well over 90 days in the city of portland have been relatively peaceful. this followed the shooting of a black male in minneapolis, george floyd, at the hands of police -- excuse me, not a shooting, but he was killed in this incident. that sparking a lot of protests that were mostly peaceful. at night here in portland, they did turn violent very frequently

where you had protesters that were attacking a federal building, trying to set it on fire. this leading to this cycle of violence. as far as the leadership of that violent faction, it's very diffused. there aren't any clear leaders. it's very much this organic effort that has sprung up with people from portland and others coming in from outside areas trying to insight violence. we don't know at this hour if the protests are peaceful for a purposeful region with messages gone out. perhaps an indication more violence may have led people to stay out of downtown. again, like so much this city has seen over 90 days, it only takes one inciting incident anywhere in the city that then leads to more violence. it's 11:00 p.m. local time here right now in portland. still a long night ahead. and obviously police are out trying to patrol the neighbors and ensure they don't see the same type of violence we've seen in the past. we are waiting to see, they are

waiting to see whether or not we see that type of violence. >> of course. and josh campbell, we will check back in with you next hour. joining us there live from portland. many thanks. well, another u.s. city is also coping with unrest following the shooting of a black man by police. it's been a rough week for kenosha, wisconsin, following violent clashes and a deadly shooting during racial justice protests. president trump is planning to visit there on tuesday to meet with law enforcement and see the damage for himself. but wisconsin governor tony evers is pleading with the president to reconsider, saying in a letter, quote, i am concerned your presence will only hinder our healing. i'm concerned your presence will only delay our work to overcome division and move forward together. now, despite the governor's reservations, the white house says president trump's visit is moving forward as planned. and i want to talk now about

some of these far-right groups with randy blazak, head of the oregon coalition against hate crime. he joins us now via skype. thank you so much for being with us. >> glad to be here. >> now, you are based in portland, where you have watched all of this play out, of course, the deadly violence on the weekend then the mayor accusing the u.s. president of fanning hate and violence. and the president striking back. what impact is all this having on the city and the way people feel about the future? >> yeah, i mean, it's quite strange to be in the center of this conversation, but in a way, it's a great opportunity for portland to make its case. but the city of portland has a long history of violence between racists and anti-racists, including a racist skinhead that was murdered by an anti-racist skinhead in 1993. so these clashes are nothing new to the city. what is new is how this is playing out as part of this national dialogue we're having about race and policing.

and the fact that the president has engaged in this debate in the city just kind of brings up the tension level that we're experiencing. it always seems like it's about to fade off and something seems to happen to reignite the protests and we're back at square one all over again. >> right. and how is political extremism and racism changing the tenor of protests in portland and kenosha? >> yeah, northwest has had a history all of its own of the white supremacists claiming the northwest as their homeland. in fact, there has been a movement to secede from the rest of the country. showing up in militia groups and patriot prayer and proud boys. they often serve to agitate. many of them want more chaos. they want things to sort of collapse so they can have their civil war, the boogaloo as they call it now. it's made things more confusing

i think to the average person watching the chaos. it seems like it's protesters versus police. there are a whole bunch of actors involved in this, including some of those coming from the right to attack the left because it adds to the chaos which helps feed their narrative, and i think that's what the president is sort of feeding off of, this chaos. he feels like the pro-trump anti-black lives folks are somehow going to bring law and order back to the city, but, in fact, it's just hadding to tadd mayhem. >> right. randy, let's talk about what's behind the actions of trump supporters like kyle rittenhouse who is charged with killing and shooting two demonstrators in kenosha. and other pro-trump demonstrators showing up in portland to cause trouble. and what can you tell us about patriot prayer, the group -- the portland shooting victim was said to have been a member of? >> yeah, this is a strange group that's been around for a while, and it's led by a biracial individual who would not seem to be a white supremacist, but

they've attracted a lot of white supremacists, mainly through their anti-immigrant rhetoric. that's sort of the calling card of patriot prayers. they're very strongly anti-immigrant and anti-muslim. which has served to bring in old-fashioned white supremacists to their cause. so while on the forefront they seem to be a sort of first amendment, free speech conservative movement, they've actually sort of created a cover for a lot of more traditional white supremacist movements to march through the streets of portland. and then the counterprotests have often been violent when they do march through the streets of portland. so what we saw yesterday in the city was kind of, you know, the culmination of all that tension that's been building up in the city for years. >> so how worried or how worried should some protest leaders be that they're actually giving the president exactly what he wants as he tries to pivot away from covid-19 and racism to the issue of law and order, with some voters so scared when they see

cities ablaze and being looted that this actually becomes their top issue. and they'll vote on law and order. >> well, this was richard nixon's play in 1968, to be the law and order president who was going to clamp down on the urban jungle, as he called it, the riots of the 1960s. america's changed a lot since 1968. we have a lot of people who are of different backgrounds that the suburbs are no longer white-only and there is a lot of sympathy for the cause of black lives matter's movements. so i don't know if it will have the same traction that nixon had in 1968, but, certainly, something to rally the folks that see america changing too quickly and are afraid that, you know, their country is burning to the ground. and in portland it's pretty -- it's pretty -- i don't want to say comical, but it's a little strange because it's sort of a normal city. just little pockets where things happen, but portland is far from burning to the ground. i still think it's one of the

most liveable cities in the country, but if you turn on the evening news, you get these very dire pictures of what's happening in portland. we're basically going out for sushi wondering what everyone's screaming about. >> yeah, of course. randy blazak, thank you very much for joining us. we appreciate it. >> sure thing. coming up here on "cnn newsroom," the white house's chief coronavirus adviser says it's possible to beat the virus as long as people work together, but so far, that's been easier said than done. we'll take a look. ason 1 serum is sold every minute! revitalift hyaluronic acid serum. with our highest concentration of hyaluronic acid. visibly replumps skin. and reduces wrinkles. revitalift hyaluronic acid serum from l'oréal.

well, the u.s. is very close to reaching 6 million coronavirus cases. that's according to john hopkins university. with more than 25 million infections around the world, that staggering figure in this country is nearly 1/4 of all known cases. john hopkins also counts more than 183,000 deaths in the u.s. and the cdc says we could see that total rise to more than 200,000 by mid-september. several prominent physicians and medical experts in the country are asking for an independent commission to review data from vaccine trials before one is

allowed on the market. right now the fda regulates vaccines, but experts believe an independent body will restore public faith in the process. the white house coronavirus response coordinator says americans shouldn't wait for a vaccine to stop community spread. listen. >> don't wait for the vaccine to do the right thing. do the right thing today because if we do the right thing today, we go into the fall with much fewer cases. right now we gain freedom through wearing our masks and socially distancing. with a vaccine, it's a very different potential interaction for all of us. and so, yes, i'm hopeful for a vaccine, but i'm also very convinced right now that we can stop community spread by wearing masks, socially distancing and avoiding crowds. >> well, over the weekend, coronavirus deniers in berlin and london protested how their countries were handling the

pandemic. thousands crowded in the streets in both cities. very few wearing masks. or staying apart. in london, the protesters called it a covid hoax, saying that mandatory measures like lockdowns, mask-wearing and social distancing are a violation of their freedoms. dr. keith neil is professor amerituss of epidemiology at the university of nottingham and he joins me now from derby, england. thank you very much, sir, for joining us. >> good morning. >> so, we're seeing growing frustration with social distancing and the wearing of masking with more protests being held in europe despite the scientific data showing both measures help bring down infection rate and are all we have rate now in the absence of a vaccine. why don't people understand that? where is the disconnect? some even suggesting it's a hoax when they have seen across europe all of the deaths and all

of the -- what has been brought, the unhappiness and sadness, the lack of hope that a lot of people feel as a result of this. how can anyone declare this a hoax? >> i don't really understand it completely, but then i'm scientifically trained. i think social media and the fake -- fake messages, some of which are being probably put out maliciously, are causing people to disbelieve things. i think generally various main line media are being -- are not always trusted, nor are scientists, and particularly politicians. but quite clearly, why you would believe somebody you've never heard of on social media baffles me. interestingly, south korea, one of the reasons it was felt to have been successful, particularly among younger people, was a very high level of scientific education. they've had in the last 20, 30 years. it was, in fact, the elderly people who were less compliant. >> interesting. and so, of course, with so many

people apparently pinning their hopes on a vaccine, not those gathered at these protests, i might add, but the fda in the u.s. is now considering f.a.s.t. tracki fast-tracking a vaccine before covid-19 trials are concluded. >> it depends if the vaccine works. because we've had this problem before. because technically a phase iii trial actually shows that the vaccine will prevent disease. and there are some very rare diseases such as meningitis where it's impossible to do a proper phase iii trial because the disease is, fortunately, so rare. we need to, therefore, have very high-quality standard safety, and, in fact, the meningitis vaccines have used previous technologies and built on them. the coronavirus vaccines are slightly different. some are using new technologies. but i think it's perfectly ethical if the disease gets seriously out of control to essentially ask for mass

volunteers to be part of a phase iii study and give them the vaccine if that's what they want, as long as they've been fully informed. i think it's interesting that in england the professor gilbert who is leading the oxford work, her own children who were in their 20s, did participate. >> would you still have to have the placebo group, though, as well so that you can maintain data on this? >> i think there's different ways of doing this. you could actually offer the vaccine to everybody and just see how many get disease or you could actually give, say, 2/3 or 3/4 or maybe 80% the vaccine and have a very much smaller number of controls. this ironically actually can make the study more powerful. because you are protecting large numbers of people. and you are -- the difficulty comes in the study's only as powerful as their smallest number of cases in either arm. >> very interesting. doctor keith neil, thank you so much for joining us. we appreciate it. >> thank you.

protesters are now being ordered to leave a site in portland, oregon, where police have declared an unlawful assembly. they were seen taking some demonstrators into custody. and this comes a day after protesters faced off against trump supporters. one person was fatally shot. the city's mayor says president trump is inciting hatred. >> it's you who have created the

hate and the division. you've tried to divide us more than any other figure in modern history. and now you want me to stop the violence that you helped create. >> and president trump is set to visit another flash point, kenosha, wisconsin, but the governor is asking him to stay home. the administration is sticking to its strategy to send the national guard, when needed. >> i can tell you that we are ready. in fact, the president is ready to make sure that we provide whatever law enforcement and support that we can. >> yeah. >> and it's not this president who has said let's defund the police. what we always must do is make sure that the rule of law is there, not just because it's the rule of law, but because it creates a safer community, whether it's in kenosha, wisconsin, or anywhere else. >> so the president is under fire over some of these protests, and the tone in the

nation right now. cnn's jeremy diamond tells us how he's fighting back. >> reporter: well, amid this volatile situation in portland, oregon, portfolio is not trying to calm tensions in that city. not trying to de-escalate the situation. instead, we saw the president in early-morning tweets on sunday, nearly 90 tweets from the president, mostly focused on amplifying the divisions that we are seeing in that city, specifically some of the clashes between the president's own supporters and the black lives matter protesters in that city. the president even retweeting a video in which you can see some trump supporters on the flatbed of a truck firing pepper spray and paint balls at protesters. and also, in fact, hitting a journalist. now, the president was also directly responding to the mayor of portland, oregon, as he was delivering a news conference on sunday. the mayor of portland drawing a direct line between the president's divisive rhetoric

and the voiliolence that he has seen in that city. the president responding in real time with this tweet where he calls the mayor of portland, ted wheeler, a radical left do-nothing democrat mayor. and he also says this, which is very important. he says he would like to blame me and the federal government for going in, but he hasn't seen anything yet. we have only been there with a small group to defend our u.s. courthouse because he couldn't do it. this seems to raise the issue that the president has returned to time and again, which is this notion of sending federal forces into these cities to quell some of the violence that has been happening there. of course the president normally isn't allowed to do that without the consent of the mayor or the -- or the governor of where this is happening. and in this case, the mayor of portland has already reejected that suggestion, but nonetheless, the president has continued to raise the specter of doing something unilaterally, but, ultimately, this is playing into a much broader strategy. we have seen the president time and again focus on the protest and on some of the violence we

have seen in american cities as he is trying to campaign on this message of law and order. the irony, of course, being that all of this is happening on his watch as president, even as he tries to tie former vice president joe biden to the violence in some of these cities. jeremy diamond, cnn, the white house. >> and i spoke earlier with larry sabato, the director for the center of politics at the university of virginia. i asked him if protesters are playing into mr. trump's hands when they turn to violence and rioting? >> seeing it on television. where did the television cameras gravitate? to the most dramatic places. where the looting is happening. where arson has taken place. where the shootings are happening. and, yes, you better believe it affects some of the suburbanites and rural voters. what's interesting -- your point is well-taken. if the demonstrators that become looters were using good sense for politics, they obviously

would not be doing this because they are playing right into trump's hands, but i don't think too many of them are political analysts, rosemary. that's why guess. and. >> and you can hear more of my interview with larry sabato next hour. he'll share his thoughts on joe biden's expected speech monday in pennsylvania and how powerful that message will be up against the one pushed by the president. just days after setting a global record for daily covid infections, india sees another massive spike in new cases and surpasses the death toll of one of the world's worst-hit countries. there's a reason 1 serum is sold every minute! revitalift hyaluronic acid serum. with our highest concentration of hyaluronic acid. visibly replumps skin. and reduces wrinkles. revitalift hyaluronic acid serum from l'oréal.

thousands of protesters were back out in belarus sunday, demanding president alexander lukashenko's resignation. they scuffled with police in protests that began in part over the president's dismissal of the coronavirus.

protestors also claimed the august 9th election was rigged. a convoy of at least eight military tanks moved through minsk. he is russian president vladimir putin are set to meet in moscow in the coming weeks. well, india has just surpassed mexico for the third highest coronavirus death toll in the world. it's now reporting more than 64,000 deaths overall, but still trails the u.s. and brazil by a wide margin. india's infection total has risen past 3.6 million with officials confirming 75,000 new cases for five consecutive days. let's turn now to cnn's correspondent who joins us live from new delhi. good to see you.

so how is india responding to becoming the third highest in terms of death toll across the world? >> well, you just mentioned that for the last five days we've seen a consecutive number of infections being at almost 5,000 per day, but as far adds the government of india is concerned, they say the fatality rate remains below 2% and, of course, there are some measures in place, but at the same time, what they're doing is reopening the economy a bit more. what we're hearing now through the announcements made officially by the government of india is that one of the big announcements from the first of september is going to be at the reoperations of the services across india. what we have to remember at this point in time is that it's going to be a graded renewal of that operation, but as far as delhi's concerned, india's national capital, we see about 1.5 million people using those services, rosemary, on a daily bases. the numbers will come down, but one worry is that the situation in india remains so grim, should

india actually resume metro rail serves, essentially the over/under ground train services here in india. like i said, the indian government has said that the fatality rates remains at below 2%. one reason according to medical experts is that india has a relatively younger population when compared to other countries. yes, now, we are the third most impacted country when it comes to deaths across the world and this number is unfortunately only going to increase. when we talk about a peak, medical experts say different states, different cities are going to peak at different times because obviously the infection seems to have hit some states a bit later than other states and india's capital new delhi, rosemary. >> and what's the situation with testing there in india? >> very aggressive testing. in the last three weeks, really seeing the numbers go up. it stands at over 41 million as i speak with you, and that's one main reason you're seeing the infection rate also increase and

reach over 3.6 million. so that's something that the prime minister had announced about a few weeks ago where he said that we are targeting about a million tests a day. and as of now, as of the last few days, we've seen the testing stand at about 800,000. so just short of 1 million per day, and that is going do be the focus for india in the coming days, hence, you're going to get a lot more of me talking to you about rise in the number of infections, unfortunately, in the coming weeks because of the aggressive testing that is taking place. rosemary? >> and a lot of these pictures we're seeing many people are wearing masks, which is, indeed, a very good sign. joining us live from new delhi. many thanks. >> thanks, rosemary. well, meanwhile in brazil, a case study in how latin american countries are struggling to get a handle on the pandemic. the country is reporting 16,000 new cases, pushing its infection total to nearly 4 million. with more than 120,000 deaths confirmed. that is the worst outbreak in latin america.

and the second largest in the world. only the u.s. has confirmed more cases. well, other latin american countries also reported high numbers of infections on sunday. in colombia, more than 8,000 new cases and 300 deaths were recorded in the last 24 hours. the country now has the third highest infection rate in latin america. surpassing mexico. meanwhile, over 4,000 new cases were reported in mexico, bringing the country's total to nearly 600,000. and australia's worst-hit state reported a record daily rise in covid-19 deaths on monday. health officials in victoria say 41 additional people have died there. the new deaths come as victoria posted its lowest daily rise in new coronavirus cases since july 3rd. only 73 new covid-19 infections were reported in the past 24 hours. you are watching "cnn

well, supporters of u.s. president donald trump came together in southern california sunday. a caravan gathered in the los angeles area and participants were encouraged to decorate their cars with pro-trump flags and banners. cnn's paul vercammen has more now on the crowds that showed up. >> reporter: i'm in woodland hills, california. this is the man drag. they are headed to studio city and they are at least, at least 200 vehicles full of donald trump supporters. they said they wanted to come out and show how much they back the president in his attempt to be re-elected in 2020. we talked to a number of people who are participating. there was one young man who went to this high school, taft high school, that's where they're also staging this rally, and he

said for years he voted blue. >> i voted democrat my whole life. i voted obama both terms. i voted for hillary in we know what 2016. then i had this wake-up call because the left is angry and hostile. >> reporter: just across the street you can see a group here of anti-trump demonstrators. among other things, their signs saying "let's finally end racism in the usa". and one of them said that she was stunned that so many trump supporters turned out here in the san fernando valley. >> basically what we know about the valley, particularly woodland hills is consistently 65% vote democratic. so we know that democrats are in the large majority here. so i find it very concerning that the enthusiasm for trump, it doesn't really reflect how we actually vote in this area. and this enthusiasm, how are we going to match it on the democratic side in november?

how are we going to match that enthusiasm? >> reporter: well, you can see the pro-trump supporters in trucks, they were on motorcycles, even an 18-wheeler and more. a large turnout in the san fernando valley surprising to many people in los angeles, which traditionally votes very blue. reporting from woodland hills, i'm paul vercammen. now back to you. >> thanks for that report. well, u.s. house intelligence chairman adam schiff said sunday intelligence officials could be subpoenaed to testify on election security. this a day after the director of national intelligence, john ratcliffe, informed congress his office will no longer deliver in-person briefings. instead, it will primarily provide written updates. that's despite warnings that other countries are seeking to interfere in november's election. schiff spoke sunday to cnn's dana bash. >> this intelligence paid for by

taxpayers doesn't belong to donald trump, it doesn't belong to the intelligence agencies, it belongs to the american people. the agencies are merely the custodians of that information. and the american people ought to know what russia is doing. they ought to know their president is unwilling to stand up to vladimir putin. they ought to know that senators like ron johnson are pushing a kremlin false narrative about joe biden and doing it knowingly. >> meanwhile, republican senator ron johnson said the controversy about written briefings has been blown out of proportion. >> we all know what putin is doing. you know, china wants biden to be the next president. we understand that. but, you know, it's very difficult to change votes. it's very difficult to actually affect the poll numbers. what you can do is destabilize our politics. and that is exactly what russia succeeded in doing. because of what adam schiff, democrats and the news media

have done as a result. the potential sale of the popular social media app tiktok is now facing new hurdles. china's government must approve any sale of u.s. operations by tiktok's parent company byte dance. government ministers said regulations were changed to protect national security. u.s. president donald trump has sought to ban tiktok unless it's sold by its chinese parent company. the u.s. has given byte dance until september 20th to address certain security concerns involving tiktok's technology. and here to discuss this further is cnn correspondent selena wang joining us live from hong kong. good to see you. so what's the latest on this? >> rosemary, this is just another geo political hurdle that tiktok faces in trying to keep its u.s. operations alive. this is as technology becomes increasingly central in this broader geo political battle between the u.s. and china. now, on friday china announced

new restrictions on its technology exports. they include data processing, speech and text recognition. these are all technologies that byte dance uses. in fact, they are critical in powering tiktok's very important a.i. algorithms which are what make the app so powerfully addictive. even though these government notices didn't specifically call out byte dance or tiktok, experts say this essentially means that byte dance needs to get approval from beijing in order to sell its u.s. operations. now this is -- comes as there is huge pressure on tiktok. the ceo is -- has resigned after just being on the job for months. they've been scrambling to find a u.s. buyer under the threat of being banned if it's not sold to an american company. you have companies like walmart and oracle and microsoft that are all interested in acquiring the company, but now these new rules mean that that deal could be delayed or undermined. >> all right. selena wang, thank you so much for that.

appreciate it. well, white house senior adviser jared kushner is showcasing a trump administration foreign policy victory. kushner is in tel aviv for an historic flight that will launch normalized relations between israel and the united arab emirates. that flight is set to take off about half an hour from now. sources say kushner will pursue more agreement with other arab nations and he will press arab leaders to attend a signing ceremony for this deal. john defterios is in abu dhabi with more. he joins us now live. good to see you, john. so is this a two-track effort by israel and the uae to normalize diplomatic relations and at the same time codify those relations with business with jared kushner hoping to use this model in other arab states? >> yeah, i think that's a very good way of putting it, rosemary, to use the uae as an example of what could be in the months and years ahead.

in fact, at a press conference in jerusalem overnight, we had jared kushner joining prime minister benjamin netanyahu, who made that reference that this is the first of many arab states that are likely to get on board to normalize relations with israel. at the top of the list, i would think, would be bahrain. i remember last year when i was in the capital of bahrain and saw jared kushner there with the crown prince of bahrain two years ago, the prime minister of israel was in oman. so an article engagement in terms of trying to normalize the ties. a lot of sudanese in israel. the prime minister made reference to the sudanese being a focus of this agreement. the two delegations from the u.s. and israel board to come to abu dhabi. it's the first commercial flight from ll to an arab gulf state. it will carry the number 971, the calling code for the uae, a symbolic gesture to the seven states that make up the federation.

and to your point here, this seems to be a natural tie. they need to obviously formalize embassies and establish real tourism links here with the flights going forward because no commercial passengers on the flight, just delegations. and then the trade links. this is quite objects. you have uae sovereign wealth better than $1 trillion right now and the israeli technology companies, of course, are extremely strong, list on wall street and in london, and the two could make many sectors move forward from this initial normalization of efforts. >> and just how significant is all of this? >> well, you know, rosemary, it's significant in a sense that we haven't had a signing since, of course, the normalization of relations between jordan and egypt, but symbolic in a sense that the uae as a population of 10 million with 1 million emiratis was willing to move forward initially ahead of saudi arabia, which had had hesitations. so if you can actually move

ahead with tourism development, property development, technology, medicine, food security, we've already had two deals signed. one in july before the normalized relations between two firms when it comes to cyber security and another one trying to work with the pharmaceutical sector on covid-19. so if you can cement the business ties, rosemary, naturally they think the business will follow. there are huge questions what the uae did with the palestinian territories deciding to move ahead without backing from the palestinian officials. and number two, another thorny issue, f-35 jet fighter, that is something the uae would like to have, hesitation from israel. they would purchase from the united states, of course, but israel's always had the final sign of approval because it likes to maintain military superiority. so, again, can they really push forward deep ties here going forward and cement them with business is the real question. we'll start to see that unfold in the next 12 to 16 hours.

>> all right. we'll be watching closely. john defterios joining us from abu dhabi. many thanks. well, flying cars have been a staple in science fiction for years, of course. now a japanese company is one step closer to making this fantasy a reality. watch as the pilot of this car takes it out for a test flight. the car circled a test site in japan for about four minutes. the ceo of the company says his goal is to help create a society where flying cars are a safe and accessible means of transportation. the company will continue to develop the car with the hopes of launching in 2023. other companies around the world are trying to develop their own flying cars. as well. looks great, doesn't it. and thank you so much for your company this hour. i'm rosemary church. i'll be back in just a moment with more global news. do stick around. at fisher investments, we do things differently and other money managers
