this is. europe's he. told so suffering from extreme heat to climate experts are warning that this is just a taste of things to bring you the latest from sizzling southern cross on the program . u.s. president donald trump reaches out to other nations of the g 20 summit but before he. prayed. for the middle east. was

a good. time 50 years ago today protesters against police brutality in wanting to come. to visit. the protest. i'm filled welcome to the program. parts of france are experiencing their hottest days old record with temperatures reaching $45.00 degrees celsius an early summer heat wave has been scorching countries across southern and central europe the u.s. weather bureau says this is consistent with patterns expected as a result of climate change france has been taking extra precautions after thousands died in a similar heat wave more than a decade ago. a tale of 2 heat waves this is paris

temperatures in the mid thirty's beating the heat and enjoying. and this is southern france where record temperatures of hit the mid forty's in many towns silence deserted tourist attractions closed schools. people staying off the streets it's all about taking things slowly and lying low. the mayor of the town of koppen toss struck an urgent tone. it is very important for the government to be aware of this difficult situation until know we felt isolated but no i realize that it's all over france you know the climate is going to change it's not going to get better so you have to start and to supporting it. the heat is also disrupting local business. who is a bit much i should be selling ice cream because today they're not eating roast chickens no way to halt if we if we all to.

cross the border in geneva switzerland the world meteorological association said the european heat wave fits a recent pattern. we're still only the end of june. it seems like. it's set to experience its 5 record so that's 2015 to 2019 inclusive. this year is still halfway through but you know it seems that it's going to be held having to be one of the warmest on record. back in cop and the focus is on making it through the day there's just no way to beat this heat. now u.s. president donald trump has struck a conciliatory note at the start of the g 20 summit in the japanese city of. heaped praise on german chancellor angela merkel who has criticized in the past he also

helped the talks described as friendly with russian president vladimir putin but mr trump still faces opposition on a range of issues from iran to u.s. chinese trade. kind of great. to the relationship. that is the same man who usually bashes germany relentlessly well don't read too much it's still. cues that undermining the multilateral trade system and its institutions like the world trade organization and this is still i'm. fighting to save it. towards the end of the year the dispute settlement mechanisms of the w t o won't work anymore because i won't be enough judges appointed that's why many here said it's important to advance the world trade organization.

of course we have a number of bilateral trade agreements and we hope that on the fringes of this summit the talks between china and the us are successful. here. but here in osaka appears that the multilateral lists are losing ground the g. 20 is starting to crumble at the edges. and that's because the us hasn't altered its position and is gaining more allies. one of them is joe you're both so narrow the newly elected brazilian president he's developing a close relationship with his u.s. counterparts saying he has been the great admirer of trump for some time. that spells trouble not only for global trade but also the fight against climate change the goshi aids are reporting that in those areas of agreement for the final

communique seems further away than ever take climate change in the past only the u.s. refused to honor the paris agreement that's supposed to keep global warming below 2 degrees and now the other countries like brazil are thinking about joining in. if there's no more consensus on important topics than the g 20 just might become obsolete. at least the e.u. is willing to put up a fight for the paris agreement and global trade in a multilateral framework but european leaders are on the sidelines while china and the us are heading towards a full blown trade war the traits of relations between china and us. difficult the. contributing to disrupt of the global economy the world's problems are increasing and its main players are increasingly at odds

but at least at the end of the 1st day it's about pictures of harmony and beauty g. 20 leaders. castle one of japan's most famous landmarks. those friendly pictures might soon be forgotten as early as saturday when the u.s. and china meet or if the g 20 as a whole fails to reach an agreement on trade and climate change. 50 years ago today in the early hours of the morning new york police raided a bar called the stonewall inn christopher street then it was a meeting place for greenwich village is l g b t community regulars were used to the bob being raided and the police brutality that often followed but that night they fought back the stonewall uprising went down in history as the 1st time gay people had been had resisted arrest and started the riots in the name of equality

in honor of the event l g b t plus people around the world celebrate christof a straight day often with gay pride parades. these new york streets all witness to history and where day pride began 50 years ago christopher street was the scene of riots known as the stonewall uprising which placed the teen movement on a global stage back then the stonewall inn was a haven for people who didn't identify with the heterosexual norms of the day they could hang out drink dogs simply be themselves but not without risks being gay could result in prison or heavy fines violence and harassment to a common and the audio hours of june $281969.00 and. yes righted this spot the stonewalling now it wasn't the 1st time but this time around it was breaking point lesbian gay and transgender people were herded out and on today street the now

iconic christopher street bottles and bricks were thrown on the rates dock to protest question asked if a day's college a remembers them well she was 22 at the time and kept her gay identity secret fearful of the consequences like many lesbians of my generation i compartmentalize my life i have had to hide my identity and college and now i was hiding my identity at work because i could be fired for being a lesbian under the law homosexuality was a legal i already knew there really was nothing wrong with me but for me the question was how are we going to get society to change seeing thousands join her in protesting for gay rights emboldened her as a founding member of the game liberation front she helped organize the 1st ever gay pride marches from there her role as an activist was assured using her new found

voice to become an author an icon of the movement changing millions of lives we have made without the amazing progress we were going to fight for incremental change and the hope that sunday. has a social society would allow us to work or allow us to go to school it seemed to me that we needed to force this change our message to the world you don't need a word group of people to create change you just need the will and the courage to do it. a message which is inspired a younger generation to engage politically by casey handiness he's concerned that there's still no nationwide new car texting l.d.p. t.v. . from to discrimination you have like marriage equality and like that's probably not going to go anywhere but there's so much more rights to be had for your people you know like i do i took a cross-country trip with my partner 2 years ago and we were discussing how like as

we drove state to state our rights drastically changed our protections drastically changed and and that's to you know gay men not to mention trans people that are not going to be validated for that i see so much more progress that can be made over time a sentiment echoed by all those who come to the memorial park office at this time moving right to me means acknowledging my history i'm a bisexual person a pansexual person and it acknowledges my history and what we've fought for to be recognized to be able to get married to the people we love to be able to be in public with the people we love and just to be able to be ourselves and come out like and there's still a lot of progress to be made there while for many tourists this gave rights memorial represents a moment in history to all the l.g. t.v. from the stone ruling is

a reminder of the struggle that continues today. among is an. activist who was in the struggle in the evening 50 years ago he joins us from philadelphia welcome to d.w. . what was different about that night because police beatings. had taken place at the bob before so what changed why did people fight back. in those days in new york bars were usually rated for when those rates to place the police came and took the money and left what was different about this night what sparked that right they came in a barged in they slammed people against the wall being hurled insults at us they called all the names that we think called our own life here by the dike they then went to people with money and took their wallets out of their pockets and took that money put it in their pockets we had never been treated so lowly in our life when we got outside attention or more of us outside and they were still inside we

started hurling things to work they could get out that like the 1st time in history we entrap the police rather than the police traffic us it was at 1st like that i felt like humans drink something that will only grow i guess i'm dead and out i'm loud and i'm going to be in your face for ever 50 years now i've been doing that and will continue to do as long as we have to because people in this country the united states still don't have their full rights and we have to fight for that everybody the gays trance to put children the united states i don't know more movement and so just about the. this was this was this was effectively just. money and give you a beating. but this was about the police looking for cash. looking for cash and keeping those people in order keeping that in their plates.

now what in tribe season you touched on this just now as we are going to see. parades around the world the united states now has sports people and politicians and even a gay man running for president but you're still campaigning for gay rights why fight. well. anyway i mean. but when you state you could state you could be far all you got we're still that class citizen. well we wish you well with the fight. for the benefit but you're still. a very brave. when the point is what. yeah ok try is probably the best export you like to the millions of people. all right. thanks
