thank you for joining us demonstrators in the u.s. have taken to the streets for the 8th night in a row many defied curfew was imposed in a number of cities but the protests were relatively calm compared to previous days the demonstrators are demanding an end to racism after a white police officer killed and on armed black man george floyd by kneeling on his neck the mother of floyd's daughter made an emotional appeal to people in the u.s. . a powerful symbol of loss but now without a father. this is what. he goes. through. the day. they get him to be with

a family. she on the does not have. found the mother of george floyd's daughter calling for justice. and. because i want justice. i want justice for him because he was good i the frustrated at the lack of accountability around police brutality grows all across the united states dozens of cities saw mostly peaceful demonstrations continue in violation of curfew orders. as long as i can remember there has been a systematic inequality in this country i can only attest to what i know i can attest to being profiled i can attest to being a marginalized person and if we don't speak up against injustice anywhere then no

one will speak up against. us president donald trump told for the national guard all military to crack down on what he called feeds and bugs responsible for violence but the protests go on i have to write the. demonstrators i came to avoid the fog to label this man for tantalizing a street sign in washington d.c. . police grew impatient as the not went on to new york city offices began arresting people for not following their cathy areu who were there got her through her bout with many protesters around the country refusing to go hard in the world watches on to see just how much force will be authorized by officials i get the perspective of adding up all known now she has a us born historian of anti-colonialism an activist and writer and

a research fellow at the max planck institute of history of science here in berlin and i thank you for joining us you've been blogging about the death of george floyd and the black lives matter movement how are you feeling about what is happening in the u.s. right now. so to be honest the species felt like a century and i was born and raised and protect america and. americans most of. the what happened. happened to. happen to trayvon martin center plan and so many others is because of the incident connection and knowledge we have about how the united states and most of the world is unjust to black people and this is the history of sleep the 1st slave who came and happened salissa came to 6019 but it continues and continues to. this is how our lives don't matter to the police they don't matter to the government and the regime we see and the purchase to see is of by product of centuries of wholly onto

bearing this injustice. it does seem to be like they doesn't like these protests are resonating around the world right now do you think that we're seeing a a watershed moment for race relations globally. so i would say so but i think that modern research and slavery were dead to bite your kids and here in germany they're not immune from every system especially given the border regime and beyond that i would say that the history. for a living being the site which a lawyer will listen and i think includes a began in terms of the continent there's still the kind of colonialism that still exists here i would say the european context it's important for us to know that in 2000 left the protests sparked and led to mark latham and shot and killed frost of the major protests that are also ensued in 2000. and 2 teenagers for kills here in

germany were being shallow seriously only so sick or dying police custody and there's been a white right white supremacists right here jackie and have no. others so to say this is an instruction discrimination are here present and they are highlighting the after church. teaching mission which got its national women in the next day so a lot of that is highlighted and it's important to know that history and to fight for that justice all right historian activist and writer and now but i'm joining us here and thank you very much. well there's also been more international condemnation of the killing of george floyd and support for americans right to protest it here's what british prime minister boris johnson had to say just a short while ago in parliament well this is just a good read let me begin by associating my so absolutely with what. the right or

don't have to say about the debt owed george floyd and i think what happened. in the united states was appalling it was inexcusable we all saw it on our screens and i perfectly understand people's right to protest what took place they will be asleep i will say i believe the protests should take place in a. reasonable way. what was then is the scene right now of a big protest against racism and the killing of george floyd. moss is standing by for us in hyde park hypercard we can see the crowds there behind you what is the atmosphere there today. more and more people are arriving here in hyde park and in central london the process is only just started we're going to show you a little bit of the crowds that are keeping arriving everything extremely peaceful of you organize this urging everyone to be peaceful and also to keep their distance

because we obviously still in the middle of a pandemic and people are keen not to be seen as as breaking the rules too much you know because the u.k. has been particularly hard hit in the coverage 19 pandemic has that affected the way that today's protests came together. well yes there are several protests actually going on in london today and one of which is just people being outside that the house outside their doorstep and showing their support for george floyd and for these protests that are happening in the u.s. but also here in the u.k. this is for people who didn't want to come to central london and london is still in a locked and so gatherings like this on no it's straight the loud however the police is here in a huge presence and they are keeping a distance from people making sure that everything is happening in a peaceful way and and people up voicing their concerns are voicing that anger it's

about black lives matter they are calling out george floyd's name but in a very in a very peaceful way and people just want to be here and and show solidarity with the u.s. but also putting it turning the attention to the injustices in the u.k. itself better tell us more about that because we know there is of course structural racism in the u.k. as well what have people been telling you know. well i've spoken for example to several young gals and they told me that in school that they feel they're being treated differently that there isn't a high expectation of them that they're all races jokes by their classmates and they're generally the. expectation is that they wouldn't do as well so they feel that they're definitely being discriminated against even though it's not in such an overt way as we have seen with the brutality in the us.

reporting us from the huge protests there in central london at the moment thank you so much. let's move on to some other stories making news around the world cycle nice argo has made landfall on india's western coast authorities in the mega city mumbai have closed factories and offices and called her residence to stay indoors 100000 people have been evacuated from flood prone areas it is the 1st powerful storm to hit the region in decades. facebook c.e.o. mark zuckerberg has defended his decision to not take action against a series of posts from u.s. president donald trump critics say the post spread misinformation about voting by mail and encourage violence against demonstrators several facebook employees have resigned over the company stance. russia will spend at $72000000000.00 to restore the economy following the coronavirus shutdown the country is reeling from the collapse of oil prices prime minister. briefed president vladimir putin about the

program it will run over 2 years and boost employment salaries and economic growth . and british prime minister boris johnson is about to offer millions of hong kong residents a pathway to citizenship if china opposes a new security law which would clamp down on human rights the territory was promised a high degree of autonomy and rights under the terms of a 1997 handover treaty from britain to china. well hong kong has been rocked by anti-government protests since last june more than 8000 people have been arrested but hundreds of protestors have fled to evade prosecution the majority of them have found refuge in taiwan and with beijing pushing for a controversial national security law for hong kong it is likely that more protesters will take the same path. reports from taiwan dining at a home called style cafe used to be an every day event but home not his true name

but now it's let's remember him and many other hong kong was living in exile in taiwan is just all in the immunity is to new those at his taipei cafe that have become remedies to ease his homesickness. it reminds me of the days when we used to buy food from cafes like this one during the protests and we'd finish it joining the march it's a shame that i can't help anymore the only thing i can do is watch the news on my cell phone. last year tom took part in many confrontational protest including stopping the whole legislature and beseeching university campuses he regards himself as a problem i protested then fled to taiwan in december when police began to investigate. i fled because i don't believe that the judiciary will be holding fair trials for example one man who stopped peaceful protest as he was complimented by the judge for court showing noble qualities but we don't see similar comments

for the 1st protester he was convicted of rioting just because he was throwing objects i don't trust the judges because they appear to be biased. his fear has been intensified by beijing's point to end that a national security law for hong kong which was triggered global concern over the city's remaining freedoms as many as 300 protesters like tom helped that whole call for taiwan over the past year despite a lack of asylum laws taiwanese or forty's have supported to protest they have pledged more measures to help settle people exclaiming from hong kong. this is the 1st restaurant in taiwan offering top opportunities to hong kong protesters in mexico the hope it could be a sustainable way bought them through mexico living and more similar projects such as we'll take all our shops i don't know why a small protest as i did but could be called. tom often plays basketball to keep

busy today he is joined by his friend and fellow protesters seaman seaman who also prefers not to give his real name love told cole nearly a year ago he sets the chances of returning home getting slimmer day by day. once the national security law is imposed and isn't going to be any different from mainland china i'm not just worried about my personal safety i'm also worried about my family in hong kong i'm concerned that they might be intimidated or might even get up ducted by chinese agents but i don't plan to be a next time forever i hope that i regain my strength one day and be able to take back my home then. both of them will start studying in taiwan later this year just like hong kong thomas even face an uncertain future but at least they are relatively safe for now. germany has approved the

lifting of its travel warnings for $29.00 european countries it is set to take effect starting june 15th but foreign minister said that germany would continue to monitor infection rates especially in countries like the u.k. he have a sized the step was not a return to business as usual. i know this decision will raise great hopes and expectations but there is something we need to bear in mind travel warnings not travel bans and travel advisories not invitations to travel again. that's something we want to make clear in our advisories which may also include the urgent advice not to travel to countries like the u.k. for instance while people arriving there still have to quarantine themselves for 14 days. we must also avoid creating a false sense of security the pandemic is still far from over and together we must

avoid the revival of tourism leading to a 2nd wave in germany or anywhere else and. italy is reopening its borders to travelers from europe today and allowing residents to travel between regions again the country is hoping to revive its tourism industry after months of locked out but hotel owners fear their guests will stay away despite measures designed to make them feel safe we report from a resort south of rome. the battle for the best spot on the beach has begun. bit out of the wants to be in the front room of his home beach but everything looks quite different this year with the coronavirus of course always cover things looking with the umbrellas and safe distancing the 4 by 3 meters 12 square meters each so i can only fit half as many out there. conditions into it as she not reflect those across italy like on this dream beach south of rome the

same social distancing rules apply just as they do in our 5000 kilometers of beaches throughout the country fears that tourists just won't show up this summer are running high up there because people are only allowed to swim in the ocean no chatting no gathering you have to get right back to your son shares. but many in the hospitality industry are worried will foreign tourists really come to italy. large numbers come from germany or sweden but many europeans are fearful after italy was struck so fiercely by the pandemic. what kind of europe is this when neighboring countries say don't travel to italy it's not safe maybe we are the safest country in the world now because we were the 1st nation after china to be hit hard by the virus and we have now almost completely defeated. interior china there are signs that life

is slowly returning to normal. the fisherman have only recently started to more in the harbor again most of the catch goes to restaurant owners like that out of the but as long as they were close scampi and giant crabs couldn't find the market . some tourists are back into the cina at least italian ones for them the desire for sun sand in sea is now spreading more powerful than the fear of the infection in gene of it out of these restaurants cooking is finally under way again but only under strict hygiene rules in the restaurant the safety distance is measured exactly to the centimeter all guests must also register with name and address so that the entire chain of infection could be traced if necessary. when this is all over the 1st thing we'll do is open a few bottles of champagne or politico and celebrate and hopefully have

a laugh about this strange adventure we've been through together. gino bit out of the says the spite everything he's sure the beauty of the mediterranean sea here into china will always draw tourists back again. let's get more on the story with correspondents standing by in rome this is a big day for italy are reopening to european travelers is everything opening its doors to the big tourist spots of the pantheon pompei. well to give you an idea here in rome in the historic center the coliseum is open after about 3 months of closure you also have the vatican museums opening its doors once again although it's a very different experience i mean they're observing social distancing measures so it's a smaller group of people that will be allowed in each time it will be required to wear a mosque there also hands and ties and gels available for these tents so really a different experience but definitely the doors open essentially timing it all so

with the fact that you've got e.u. as well as u.k. travelers being allowed to come into the country without that mandatory to be quarantined pier replied hoping of course to encourage travelers into has to come in italy some in terms of its economy some 13 percent of the g.d.p. is based interests of so it's a very key sector for the country and they're hoping that these travelers will come it's very much needed if you look at the center of rome right now it's still fairly quiet because that's where it gets crowded with tourists seem if i wanted to get on a plane to rome tomorrow what could i expect. well for instance 1st off if you're coming by plane in terms of the airports you can come to rome milan or naples you can also come by car but there are some restrictions still in place so even though it's a nice opening its borders countries like austria switzerland they're planning to open by mid june to certain countries but not to italy in fact in austria they

believe that italy still very much a call that 19 months on and in switzerland they are telling their citizens if you travel to italy when you come back that will be health security measures so likely quarantines as well so it didn't succeed where the people feel secure enough to come here and then have to return back home and cease to be quarantined. foreign minister nial is cautioned of these countries sticking his measures because they say it's not fair that it is treated like a leper country and so he's trying to speak to his counterparts from there but we'll have to see how far people feel secure in themselves to be able to travel and he tell you it's trying to stress that they're taking all the necessary safety measures to make sure it's safe to come visit it well we did hear from some members of the hospitality industry in our report think they're worried that the 1st really are not going to come back because italy as you said was a covert 1000 hot spot do you think these worries are justified. well one has to

look at the epidemiological situation any terms of that the situation is whole day here insley i mean if you look at the last 24 times the figures out there were 55 deaths in the past 24 hours now that's a significant drop to the peak of the pandemic when we had hundreds of deaths in the country on top of that the number of people in i.c.u. continues to drop every single day but you did see 318 new cases in the past 24 hours more than half of those cases it's want to stress i'm always in that central hot spot and that is the northern region of lombardy in regions in the country that had no inspections whatsoever and 7 deaths and 10 in terms of the number of infections so it's a lot but the situation may be overwhelming and you're also going to have traveled within reach between regions right now being allowed so really once again it's

a question of what the government wants to stress that they doing everything in their power to make sure that people follow those social distancing measures away the mosques when required and have the temperature to take it before boarding the train all getting into a plane and on top of that if you're in the canyon not with your family you have to . put appropriate distances between yourself the drive the front of the passenger perhaps at the back so really all those measures in place hoping to encourage those tourists this important tourist dollar euro to come into the country in order to help the struggling businesses and italians that have suffered as a result of the lockdown measures. up there reporting there in rome thank you. let's check in now on some business stories from around the world tourism operator 2 we will receive a significant settlement from boeing for the grounding of its troubled $737.00 max aircraft boeing has agreed to a cash compensation package that will include credits for future aircraft orders
