this is the w. needs live from the prime minister of greece says the use migrant deal with turkey is as good as all of this is new clashes erupted on the greek turkish border as thousands of people and i could push to reach europe the e.u. would he says turkey if you see migrants for political purposes also coming up this is not the time to give up. this is not a time low for excuses. this is a time for cooling all. the head of the world health organization says

governments need to make containing coded nineteen's their highest priority plughole cases frauds field 100 ounce of research as a pricing to develop a vaccine for the more non-exciting mom doesn't hurt that's been implied. and made south korea's 1st mining female news anchor look at how the search zone is breaking barriers and ask why it took so long to do so. i'm anthony howard thanks for joining us tensions continue to mount on the greek border with turkey as thousands of migrants seek to into europe on friday fragmented the plunder sea between the 2 nations was matched by more chaotic scenes on the shared front t.-a footage from the border shows volleys of tear gas and stun grenades being fired across the fences. police early if i had gas it was they'd

line the lighting fires in the area some of them responded by throwing rocks at some of the migrants have told the turkish authorities and now ordering them to leave the no man's land because the greek border will not open. spoke to gerald now says he's a migration specialist who is considered the architect of the original a huge deal that has been severely shaken in recent days he told brady that decides the deal europe must do more to help migrants stuck in camps on the greek islands so as they can as we're seeing pitches every day of thousands of people at the turkish great border and you've calls now for every new will of the e.u. techie migration deal what would that look like well since the deal was a simple non-binding statement based on interests what we need to do is find

another statement based on the interests of all the key players turkey greece the e.u. not to forget the interests of refugees and migrants so what we call for something similar from what happened in march 2016 you build on what worked you repair and improve what didn't work and you find a win win win solution for refugees greece and you and turkey and one of the main points that you think you need improving on. well what has worked is the support for syrians in turkey i mean this has been the most generous project in the history of the e.u. we're funding the integration of refugees in a 3rd country and it's well deserved turkey has the most refugees in the world and 680000 children go to school as a result of this 1700000 people get social support what hasn't worked has been the . troll shifts reception conditions on the greek guidance the extremely slow asylum procedures we shouldn't just blame greece we should find the plan with some

european countries and greece together can implement the agreement on the islands and that requires also helping greece by relocating refugees from the mainland to other european countries one thing that we've been hearing especially from german politicians in recent days is that germany shouldn't be blackmailed by turkey what do you see as the potential consequences for germany and other e.u. member states if the e.u. fails to come to an agreement internally and also with turkey i've had a lot of meetings with politicians in the last few days and i think most of them recognize that this agreement was very much in the interest of germany as a major country of destination just as it is very much in the interest of greece without this agreement greece on the scene there gnc has only 2 options one is every both to the rise in the next year we're lending greece and everybody to len's

and greece will stay in greece. or greece breaks international law engages in life threatening push back operations with life rafts and small boats full of refugees including children. to terrify them from coming that will not work it would be illegal and it would mean the refugee convention drowns this he ended jian so in order to have an acceptable choice we need an agreement based on principles that involve being able to return anyone who doesn't need protection be you but that also involves supporting the country that has most refugees in the world and to be honest my sense is that in germany most people most politicians and most people understand this other european countries might feel that they are not concerned nobody comes to these countries and so perhaps they just don't want to pay for refugees in turkey. thank you very much i think you. the

architect of the original migration deal between turkey and the european union speaking to the. brady bill here in germany public opinion is divided over whether or not to allow people stuck at the great border into the e.u. according to a poll released on friday just over 40 percent of germans believe it's right that the people stuck in no man's land are still at the border compared with more than half are think refugees and migrants should be allowed to enter the countries in the european union. many german cities are preparing to take in refugees while local authorities have been asking the federal government to act. in distant of the rooms are ready 400 beds for families with children the city also has space for 150 unaccompanied minors many city councils eager to provide help.

the basic principles of humanity are non-negotiable they have to be upheld if we want to live up to our reputation as a civilized european a civilized country and a civilized city and if that signs and that's why i'm so glad that so many cities are ready to take in refugees it's a litmus test of how serious we really are and it's mine and just adore is not alone in a joint statement the interior minister of the state of lower saxony along with 7 major cities are calling on the german government to act they want to accept 550 unaccompanied children under the age of 14 opinions in dissent of are divided. as a local i have to say we're already having a tough time these days but it's hard to get an appointment at public offices because the people who work there are too busy. and. i think this is a humanitarian solution that should be implemented and i believe society will

accept that it is the german government rejects the initiative saying the approach should be at a europe wide level. let's now take a brief look at some of the other stories making headlines around the world. at least 27 people have been shot dead and dozens injured in the afghan capital it's the 1st major attack in kabul since last week in the u.s. and the taliban signed an agreement in the war in afghanistan so-called islamic state has claimed responsibility for the attack. a suicide bombing outside the u.s. embassy in tunisia has killed a security guard 4 other gods and a civilian wounded in the blast it's the most serious attack in the north african country in months. and bangladesh thousands of muslim muslims have held a demonstration in the capital dhaka to denounce india's controversy all citizenship law that triggered deadly riots in delhi the protesters are calling on

organization is calling on governments to quote pull out all the stops. to combat the corona virus this after the global number of covered 19 cases soared past 100000 health officials around the globe scrambling to build a robust public health response and researches around the world have been rising to develop a vaccine but how close are they to success is a closer look at just how vaccines work the most effective way to prevent specific infections is to harness the body's own immune system that scenes like those used to prevent flu are made from either a weakened version of a virus or pieces of its genetic code the vaccination puts the immune system on the alert it makes antibodies that help it respond quickly to the target virus if exposure occurs under ordinary circumstances it can take up to 5 years to develop

a safe and effective vaccine but in a race against the novel coronavirus some labs have already begun testing candidates in animal models sounds promising does that mean we'll be seeing one in the next few months that's been implied. we're talking about a vaccine and they're moving along very quickly all of the pharmaceutical companies are moving along very quickly but in vaccine development experts say quickly is relative if everything moves as quickly as possible the soonest that it could possibly be. a half to 2 years that still might be very optimistic in the meantime could antiviral drugs and at treating those who are already infected helped the development curve for a new medicine is even steeper than for a vaccine that can easily take 10 years for a new pharmaceutical to gain regulatory approval and the industry claims it costs upwards of a 1000000000 euros around 9 out of 10 drug candidates never go into production they

fail at some point during testing but there's also hope that some medicines that were originally developed to fight other diseases could be repurposed like a compound called rem does appear it was originally planned as a treatment for ebola and was tested when a major epidemic had west africa back in 2013 though it didn't prove very effective against that disease the company says it does affect corona viruses and hence could help covert 19 patients disease experts say repurposed drugs originally developed to fight malaria or hiv also show promise clinical trials with all these compounds are ongoing now to a country where women's progress was a long time coming south korea the nation now has its 1st main female news anchor in a country with the world's 12th largest economy it's taken 7 decades for

a woman to be promoted to the my news anchor's role it's a landmark development in a traditional and conservative society and miking headline news made veteran journalist lisa. stepping into the spotlight and pushing through the glass ceiling besides breaking news journalist lisa jong is also breaking boundaries becoming south korea's 1st ever female main news anchor though the country has transformed itself into a modern economic powerhouse culturally it's still often a man's world. so you. don't want to go there or you know traditionally the main news anchor would be an older experienced man and the side him there would be a young female announcer who is pretty like a flower. and stars are no. lee is no newcomer to the business the award winning reporter has been with public broadcasting k.b.'s

since 2003 but even she thought this top job would be out of reach. without realising i myself was thinking it would be impossible for there to be a female main anchor at any time before i retired. luckily for her she was wrong now she hopes her trail blazing will make it easier for the women who follow the order going in their record. soon i hope people will no longer be interested in whether the anchor is a woman or a man. i'll try to stop defining myself as a female journalist i'm a journalist and a news anchor. in concord. a story she hopes that will soon stop the news worthy. your watching day w. news from bergin coming up next w. news africa with my colleague at the market jr and don't forget you can always get
