this is news coming to you live from minneapolis to burn says the u.s. national guard has sent into the city anger spills over into violence following the death of a black man in police custody earlier this week also on the program u.s. president gul trump takes aim at social media with executive order challenging their legal protections. currently social media giants like twitter receive an unprecedented liability shield based on the theory that they're a neutral platform which they are not the order comes as twitter begins fact

checking trumps tweet sput it's likely to face 5th legal turf plus fred splits his faith in a voluntary track and trace stop as it relaxes coronavirus restrictions but critics say the app plays major short haul. hello i'm terry martin good to have you with us the national guard has been deployed to the u.s. city of minneapolis during a 3rd straight night of unrest angry protests have spilled over into ballance and looting some response to the death of unarmed black man in police custody earlier this week the city's mayor has called for criminal charges to be filed against the officer who was filmed kneeling on george clooney snick during his arrest. the incident has sparked protests in other cities including. denver l.a.

and memphis activists are planning to rally outside the white house in washington later friday. just days after the death of an unarmed man the anger remains on the streets of minneapolis. his name shouted by peaceful protesters who echo his final words. the tension hanging stick in the year even as the smoke clears from the night before in which anger ignited parts of the city local stores were set ablaze others looted. it was a reaction to the graphic video that captured the final minutes of george floyd's life. the black community left fuming and looking for the law to now to shoot the offices in question with the same for all city as it did the handcuffed george floyd then you know now. we want justice the one you

know the officer to be held accountable for his actions that is. all the state local and federal authorities tried to lower the temperature at a joint press conference but instead raised eyebrows by asking the community to bring forth more evidence. we need the community's help there were folks there on the scene not both that we could've done it by necessarily at the time we need to know who they are come forward if you have a video please share it we want to do as quickly as we can a thorough investigation to get answers to those questions in the hours that followed those words it soon became abundantly clear that for the black community of minneapolis justice is not being served fast enough our correspondent stefan simmons is in many of us and joins us now stefan what's the situation there right. well i tell you what started as

a peaceful protest maybe many hours ago has morphed into an all out riots and. looting buildings around me and you can see this right now you just can see behind me are on fire and whenever the buildings fired burns down the another one is set ablaze people here are still very very angry and we talk to protesters and hear basically 2 different things number one the crowd who says people all over the world and in america the elites the politicians have to see this the violence the looting the riots to understand that they are fed up with things like they happened to george floor the other crowd says this has nothing to do with peaceful protesting against the killing off to watch georgia florida and as you can see motions are running high. so those 2 groups are both here and watching buildings burning down police not inside and the national guard

500 national guard members are supposed to be deployed here but i have seen any stuff and the people protesting there are clearly very angry but who or what are they directing their anger at. police at the police there's a deep rooted deep rooted mistrust and anger against the police and. or through the police and want to happen now to. the latest video. this translates also to at least 2 politicians 2 government city government state government as i said people here the majority of people says this is exactly what the world needs to see buildings in flames anger and looting to understand that they're absolutely fed up and this is. thoughts no place anymore that any cop

treats african-americans or people of color like this. is something that aside from sending in the national guard what are authorities doing to address the grievances of the protestors. but of course officials here in authorities have promised a solid in-depth investigation that they have to do this they have to take basically that time to not mess up an investigation to hold everything they find op and that it holds in court so that if those police officers are guilty they actually king. be punished for what they did this is not really understood or appreciated by protesters here they want quick action and they want to again a symbolic display off that they are absolutely absolutely fed up and all words of politicians or authorities in one way or another to calm him

down is basically wasted at this point that's what they tell us stefan thank you very much that was our reporter stefan seaman's there in minneapolis minnesota. donald trump has signed an executive order that aims to make social media companies liable for the content on their platforms much like newspapers are tropes move comes after twitter flagged 2 of his tweets suggesting they may be inaccurate. he calls it protecting free speech while the social media companies say it's a politicized approach to law trumps and light as executive orders designed to strip social media companies of their existing immunity when it comes to content published on their platform. the choices that twitter make someone who chooses to suppress blacklist shadow. are editorial decisions pure and simple there are tory illustrations in those moments twitter seems to be

a neutral public platform and they become and they're with a viewpoint and i think we can say that about others also this week twitter put fact check labels on 2 of the president's tweets that had unsubstantiated claims about voting by mail in the us 2 it has said it decided to do so because the content broke its rules on the key issue of voting trompette back and accuse twitter of trying to interfere in the 2020 presidential election and stoffel free speech. to business and technology sectors argued the order could could freedom of speech across the internet while legal experts are warning that it conflicts with the existing law which only the congress and not the president can change it really is a complete misreading of section $230.00 it takes. a law that has been interpreted time and time again very very broadly by multiple federal circuit courts and just

says i'm replacing all of this with my own interpretation that i have no right to give about how to interpret this or a law and so no it's really not going to have any staying power in a court i may really is kind if you have a piece of writing on the phone or that means the order will likely be challenged in court ahead of the november presidential election. earlier we spoke to did obvious washington bureau chief alexander phenomena duster what motivated the whole trial to sign this controversial executive order. the logic behind this executive order is intriguing and that actually works trump always a wanted and wants to publish his posts whatever he has to say without any limitations even though. they are wrong or false statements or derogatory comments and his executive order attacks the very legal provision that has allowed him to do so with impunity so it's sort of difficult to understand but we have to

say that the signing of this executive order placed a huge space because by starting this battle this war with silicon valley he is doing something that will be very popular with his supporters and he can say look there is a conspiracy there are large media groups that don't want me to get reelected there is only one voice that you need to trust that is my voice. so you look now at some other stories making headlines around the world today german carmaker volkswagen says it will invest more than 2000000000 euros in china the targets are 2 electric mobility companies after its investment b. w. will become the biggest investor in battery maker walsh one of the german on a brant is also increasing its stake in the chinese electric vehicle maker c. the us britain and japan are among the countries condemning china's move to assert

more authority over hong kong and that's after china voted to begin imposing a controversial new security law pro-democracy protesters fear it will erode freedom and justice in the semi autonomous territory. ethiopia has started to repatriate its citizens stranded in lebanon because of coronavirus restrictions several 100 people arrived in as of a bump from beirut on thursday thousands of ethiopian workers have registered to return home but lebanon's high ticket prices and quarantine fees are making the trip difficult. and in washington d.c. restaurants are getting ready for limited reopening on friday or allowed all for outdoor seating only now the city is partially lifted coated 19 restrictions the food industry has been particularly hard hit as a result of the law. so korea has reported its biggest spike in

corona virus cases in almost 2 months prompting the government to reimpose a number of social distancing measures including reclose inc many schools that opened just days ago parks museums and theaters in the soul metropolitan area are also closing for 2 weeks in an effort to slow the spread of the virus comes after officials announce more than $130.00 new cases in the past 2 days most of which came from an outbreak in warehouses in of an e-commerce per. well for more let's bring in journalist frank smith in seoul frank why are authorities so concerned about these flare ups because the infection numbers relative to population don't seem very high. yes they are pretty low relative to the population but we need to remember the previous outbreaks that took place here in south korea early in the coronavirus history in the city of daegu it was just one person attending several church services that spread the virus to what became

really thousands and then recently here in the south korean capital in the entertainment of e.t.a. one you had one person now that's infected more than 250 with this recent outbreak in which on that's just outside of the capital at a logistics center you have now you know i think it's more than 200 people that have been infected and so it's it's really kind of spreading and it gets more difficult the more people that are involved to perform the kind of contact tracing in testing that can help contain such a cluster outbreak ok so what is the government there doing to contain this latest outbreak well it's doing that contact tracing as i mentioned to try to identify the people that might have been in contact with workers that were affected at that their house it's also doing a lot of testing of all of those people to make sure that they don't have the virus

and then trying to find out who those people have contacted as well they're also going to other logistics centers other warehouses surrounding the capital as more people are ordering things online those places are getting busier and it is difficult to work you know where a face mask in observing social distancing in such an environment and so the government is trying to crack down on that as well to get people to observe these measures that help prevent the spread of the corona virus. frank briefly if you can south korea has been wide praise for his handling of the pandemic given this new wave of infections is its approach now being called into question. that's a very good question as you mentioned earlier the numbers in terms 'd of relative to the population is still pretty low and as i mentioned south korea's contact tracing is quite vigilant they collect cellphone data they collect

credit card records they look at c.c.t.v. footage to try to track down those people 'd that 'd are infected with the virus that came in contact with other people and get in contact with them and have them tested so when this cluster oh great takes place it's just a few days now they are in the beginning stages of doing that contact tracing and doing that testing so will know more about how successful south korea's measures are i think in a few days frank thank you very much for bringing us up to date there that was journalist frank smith insult. here's a look at some other developments in the pandemic the number of worldwide coronavirus cases has topped 5800000 that's according to john hopkins university in the u.s. brazil reported a daily record of new cases on thursday with more than $26000.00 pression factions it's the 2nd hardest hit nation after the u.s.

an unexplained illness that strikes children and could be related to the corona virus has now also been detected here in germany and the african union is calling for a suspension of debt repayments for the rest of the year as the pandemic spreads across the continent straining resources friend has approved a track in tracing the as the country begins to for the relax its stay at home restrictions starting next week the voluntary starts next week to warn people when they come near anyone with the kurkova 1000 virus but critics say it could have been more effective in france had teamed up with its neighbor germany on a joint as originally planned. get those 4 get called those against. the french parliament gave the green light for the stop covert app by a clear majority on thursday anyone with the virus can make

a note of it in the app the app warns other users if they come too near to the sick person the app has great timing starting tuesday france is ending stay at home restrictions restaurants and cafes as well as public parks will be open. according to france's secretary of state for digital affairs the app is designed to get the coronavirus crisis under control. the french want their social life back. they want all the stores open the app provides the needed safety for the newly won freedom. in some countries like china south korea and india coronavirus tracking apps are mandatory but european countries like france are making them voluntary. that affects my life a bad idea in my opinion. this is if it's all they need and i think it might be

a good idea but unfortunately not everyone can use an app. the most vulnerable people will be elderly won't be downloading v.m. they would know how to use the to. critics point out that the french and german apps won't be able to communicate with each other when the german app launches in mid june there's a lot of traffic between the 2 countries france is a popular holiday destination and workers from both sides commute back and forth there would have been major advantages to a comma now. before let's bring in jenelle duma on from our business desk good to see you so contact tracing are meant to allow the safe reopening of the economy allowing people to move around again but how well to these really work well results in the countries where they've been rolled out so far have been kind of mixed if we take the example for australia they recently rolled out their coded

safe from the beginning it was plagued with glitches it didn't work with older smartphones it interfered with other health monitoring apps only about a quarter of the population downloaded it similar experience with singapore's trace together only 20 to 25 percent of the population downloaded it and really what you want to get to is mass adoption you want to increase the likelihood that 2 smartphones of these apps will meet each other and exchange information and multiply those effects across the population there's actually an a study from oxford that says that at least 60 percent of the population has to download the app for it to have a market effect on transmission chains now that a country with more successful penetration rate so far is iceland at 40 percent but even they say it hasn't made that much of a difference so france is relying on the people using the voluntarily people are sure to. be effective well there are countries that have made it mandatory like

china and india but even in india only 10 percent of the population the 1300000000 people who live there have used it but the fact is. any countries in europe aren't like china or india that it would be a red line for many to make them mandatory it would sort of strain at the boundaries of legality and there are also issues of enforceability i can't imagine that it would be made illegal for you to simply turn off your phone or you know or turn off your bluetooth as you move around the world so that's going to be an issue definitely and the fact is the a process of sort of contact tracing that we saw in south korea with credit card tracking credit card transactions location tracking c.c.t.v. footage all of that is a balance to make of many sort of privacy loving citizens in europe all i can imagine jill thank you very much for bringing us up to date there that's our business editor jill genelle do alone. now while society's oldest members are often seen as the most vulnerable in this pandemic some are proving that there are
