this is deja vu news live from her lead europeans might be getting their summer vacations after all the e.u. is expected to recommend border restrictions be left allowing millions of people to travel to summer destinations but the continued threat of the coronavirus means not all countries will be playing out the welcome mat will have the latest also coming up. a warning from the white house's top experts on the coronavirus anthony

says the u.s. could see quote needless suffering and deeper economic damage as lockdowns park ended too soon. and the afghan president orders the military to restart operations against militants this after extremists attacked civilian targets including a maternity hospital killing mothers and infants. i'm brian thomas great to have you with us today as lock downs is across europe and people slowly return to work later today the european commission is expected to announce new guidelines for summer vacation travel the new framework will lay out the conditions for reopening border. for schengen countries under normal

circumstances these countries allow passport free travel among member states expected are new guidelines on hygiene for hotels and other tourist accommodations it is anticipated that the commission will also recommend that masks be worn on trains and in restaurants. that have used back sanders following the story for us in brussels good morning to you max it's sounding like good news what can you what do you tell us about the measures the commission is looking at today well brian we have to wait and see what the commission are with the college of commissioners which concrete steps they're going to unveil later today they're going to be discussing the whole package this morning and presenting it to the public later this afternoon. as you said already these it's important to note that these are guidelines so not all of this is necessarily the binding so the responsibility of implementing these the suggestions to bring back safe and coordinated travel

across the schengen area the responsibility lies within the member states but the talking points are going to be the lifting of border checks bringing back transport making transport more easy again and with the holiday season coming up obviously tourism and one of the concrete measures that is likely going to be addressed and going to be mentioned today is at the implementation of green zones and this would mean defining regions in the member states that are relatively safe in terms of corona virus infection rate and allowing travel from and to these does the nation's 1st so meaning opening up gradually step by step not too fast not to risk a spike but also not too slow not to hurt the economy more than necessary ok so safe and coordinated those are 2 important operative words you're now would these measures apply to all the schengen countries you mentioned the green zones how's this going to be working with the member states in toto. in the long run yes all

the shiny countries but right now we're just looking at the regions parts of individual member states not at all the entire showing in showing a region some the situation the health situation regarding coping 19 in the showing in countries varies or greatly so we still have regions in italy for example where there's a very high infection rate greece on the other hand another very popular tourist destination has relatively low infection rates also has to do with that many factors come into play here but also they are going into lockdown pretty fast at the beginning of march but we're likely to see travel to those regions 1st tests at the border or prior to travel might be an option to get around this this this green zone suggestion regulation but we'll have to wait and see how the situation evolves and if we can ultimately see and how fast we can see if all of sudden gummi going back to the traveler a briefly if you could max any idea when this could take effect people are very anxious to to book their holidays right now well booking will be the problem i

guess it just depends on if your flight's going to take place if the country's going to let you in if the hotel is going to be able to accommodate you but austria for example already announced that they were going to not have. regular border checks starting this friday greece said by mid june they were going to welcome people back to their beaches france on the other hand said we're going to be closed until mid june so there are different plans and policies in place and i think will will find out a lot more it with the in the upcoming days max thanks so much for that from brussels today and the united states government's top infectious disease expert as one lawmakers and cities and states could see a spike in 1000 deaths if they left their lockdowns too quickly after the fallacy expressed his concerns wall testifying before the u.s. senate from his home. zoomie sing south become the new normal for people all over the world during this pandemic and the pop form took center stage in the u.s.

senate as the nation's top infectious disease experts warned against rushing to reopen the economy it is a real risk you will trigger an outbreak you may not be able to control which in fact dark simply will set you back only leading to some suffering and death could be avoided it could even set you back road to try to get economic recovery that was anthony fact she has served under 6 u.s. presidents bush in his role on the white house coronavirus task force he's had to walk a tightrope between public health and the un scientific theories promoted by donald trump but this version is going to disappear. it's a question of what that when you talk about will this virus just disappear and as i accept publicly many times that is just not going to happen because it's such a highly transmissible virus and with the virus not going away felt she had another

message for the senators safeguards like testing and contact tracing you need to be in place before states open up. so if a community or a region doesn't go by those guidelines and reopened the consequences could be pretty dire who are the consequences could be really serious. public health officials believe many kovac 19 deaths in the u.s. could have been avoided if or strictures were put in place 2 weeks earlier. and they fear that if lawmakers back to demands to quickly lift restrictions the death certificates for tens of thousands more victims would be signed. russia has started using its lockdown president putin is going ahead with plans to roll back restrictions across that country which has reported more than 230000

period in russia allowing a gradual easing of the lockdown across the country loaded a based on an analysis of the situation and on the opinion of chief medical officer has the heads of each individual region to decide what restrictive and preventative measures should be in place and on how i didn't want order they can be gradually eased or maintained in the sea change isa continued. moscow has been the hardest hit by the coronavirus over half of russia's cases are in the capital but the lockdown is also a huge blow to russia's economy and that is the main worry for many people now. north of the most and i don't think it's too early to come out of it most people don't have any savings and people need something to live on a way to feed their family and pay their rent. and that not saying anything the restrictions should be in place for 3 years why not make it 5 that just messing people around. could look around people got out on the streets anywhere no matter

what restrictions or. political analysts argue that the kremlin's decision to ease restrictions is politically motivated as surveys show trust and blood in their putin has fallen to new lows. the main reason for these changes is that russia doesn't want to fall behind the west much and many european countries have already started coming out of corn team they've been successful in their battle against the pandemic. things are going back to normal there knows that if he falls behind he will lose out when it comes to public opinion in russia. meanwhile offshore eighty's in the capital have been frantically working. to expand the number of beds for covert 1000 patients turning buildings like this exhibition center into temporary hospitals after all thousands of new cases are still being reported in russia every day. let's get you briefed out some of the other stories making the

mapping team is reportedly working on outlining the 2 towns the scope and timing of any an extension is still unclear but it would make a future severin palestinian state even more elusive. here in germany the economic costs of the pandemic are continuing to now putting the country's banking sector is in trouble once again announcing today that the crisis has cost some $479000000.00 euros now much of that is being put down to customers failing to pay back their loans on time but who's on the hook in this all the taxpayer. back in 2008 at the high point of the financial crisis already troubled come out spunk with tottering and the german government bailed out in a rescue action that ultimately totaled 18000000000 euros in return the state received

a quarter of the bank's shares critics called the rescue action wildly expensive especially for taxpayers combat's banks fortunes revived but germany's 2nd largest lender never really recovered nor did share values in may 2008 the share price was around $140.00 euros now it's just 3 euros. and the state still has a stake more than a decade later it's the largest shareholder with more than 15 percent and no selloff in sight many economists see the billions spent to bailout command's bank as a big fat loss. so should the state continue propping up this troubled bank let's dig into that with andreas parshall he's an advisor to the german finance ministry good morning to you andreas what's your advice to the government on comair spog income at spike it's tricky because it's not just an

ordinary company that is failing but it's also one of the largest banks in germany and we know how crucial banks are afford that for the economic system and also to force the supply of liquidity of credits to firms and so this is this makes this decision very difficult but from another pure business point of view obviously this wasn't a good investment for the german government. german taxpayers have already song 18000000000 in. isn't one of the golden rules for investors not to throw good money after bad. that's true. if you see it purely from and from a business from an investment decision this is not to not it wouldn't be a good idea but there's more to this india specially in the current crisis i don't think it makes sense to let the bank go bankrupt because we don't know what the consequences are and also the chopped losses but in general we should be careful

with the state investing in firms because usually firms that are asking for money from the state they are not in a good shape to begin with so it's usually not a good investment project to start it when you're talking to the german government do you advise them now that they're partially owners of commands banca how to manage this bank or at how does that work also and in my role as an advisor to the german ministry of finance we are not involved in such a let's say day to day business it's more about the conceptual strategic things that we are stupid good advice on and i don't also i don't think it makes sense for the government to directly intervene in the management decisions so of course they are now the largest shareholder of spunk and they should be involved in selecting management but then the management should do their job and they should be evaluated on their performance ok you're involved in these decisions how concerned is the

german government about the political fallout of bank bailouts and thinking here about 2008. now yeah obviously this is a big issue. rescuing banks is not very popular especially if you remember up like 10 years ago or. still how much money they earned before the crisis and then it bonus payments to manage just this leads to a very bad press so this whole place are old but the crucial thing is we need to think about which firms relevant for the system which banks are relevant for the system and to keep to keep the economy running and we don't have too many banks so that it's a tricky decision which is cannot be made purely on the investment or returns to investment decisions andras partials i so much for coming in on this today thank you bye it's to turkey now where

children aged under 14 are being allowed finally to leave their homes for a few hours today for the 1st time in more than a month turkey has gradually been easing some of its coronavirus lockdown distractions shopping malls and hair salons have been allowed to reopen under strict hygiene requirements but some cities including istanbul and ankara will be put back under lockdown again during the upcoming holiday weekend and the country's elderly population and children are still subject to curfews. on this let's bring in correspondent dorian jones and his son mir who are joining us from a park in istanbul good day to both of you really special morning for the entire family today near 1st to you what's it like getting out after being cooped up inside for so long it is very exciting because

to get out for a few hours after nearly 2 months locked down and the children and youth of the country as well small businesses many of been shut since march to there is now hope that they can get their businesses back on track but those feelings are really tempered for many by fears of concern that this could lead to complacency in fact images on friday of a packed high street in istanbul alarm from turkey's health minister. who warned against complacency over the easing of restrictions and also the turkish president reject tapered one warned of the catastrophe of complacency so there is a mixture of feelings and speaking to many business people small businesses who have opened who have suffered great financial losses they 2 of those in the fear that yes they have welcome the opportunity to get their business on track but they fear the return of of the virus a fear an upswing an upsurge in infections by the easing is really of these relate

of these regulations and also the fear of those shopping malls opening that too has caused a great deal of concern given it is a compain space and leaving the potential increase in infections and the great fear is that they could be a further lock down if these regulations are east carefully so there was a mixture of both optimism relief and also fear. one last question before we go are you looking forward to getting back to school when it's possible. yes i am like the. teachers ok thanks very much and thanks to you as well joining us from the sunny park today. people finally allowed to get outside thanks very much. don't forget you can always get more on these stories at our website that's w dot com you can also follow us on twitter and instagram i'm brian thomas for the
