and we're led. to hearing more. comments and statements about my skin color. and europe's top negotiators sees no significant progress during the latest talks on a trade deal with britain. i mean and i must unwelcome protesters in the u.s. vowed to continue rallying on the streets after 10 consecutive days of demonstrations over the death of george floyd in police custody last month in washington d.c. the mayor has formally asked president to remove the federal forces from the capital and city workers and volunteers have painted a huge message of support for the protest movement on a street leading to the white house. at

a news conference at the white house on friday u.s. president said all americans should be treated equally by police but the remarks were made about george floyd while commenting on better than expected unemployment figures has drawn immediate outrage you also what happened last week we can't let that happen hopefully george is looking down right now and say it was a great thing that's happening for a country there's a great day for him it's a great day for everybody it's a great day for everybody this is a great great day in terms of equality it's really what our constitution requires and it's what our country is all over. that was president trump speaking a short while ago and let's bring in d.w. correspondent stephan simons in minneapolis 7 how were those words by the president received by the people on the streets off minneapolis. well the only i have

to tell you we met a 2 reactions predominately one was quiet and then raise of an eyebrow and then the words uttered we don't give a expletive so i can't repeat this and the other crowd of people we talked to her don't know at least say that they really don't care what the president has to say anymore for that matter they found it kind of offensive that he mentioned george floyd's in context celebrating economic data so that is the reaction here to what's donald trump however there is another reaction to what happened today in minneapolis and that is that the city council actually decided today to restrict the police department their own police department significantly by asking them or ordering them to say absolutely this system any chokeholds on any action towards the neck in future arrests number one number 2 also every officer is now

obliged and by law required to report and interfere should a colleague of them do something like that ever again and that is significant for the people here in minneapolis and for their cause of course because that's what it's all about for them still get rid of police brutality and systemic structural racism here and all over the united states. is unrelated to an incident in new york in the state of new york and boston in new york and other incidents also police brutality where video footage it's kind of an elderly man being pushed over by an officer can you tell us more about that. of course yeah there is a connection absolutely right you nailed it people saw this video and are equally appalled at it not only stops and they are outraged about this is obviously when they have seen it doesn't stop about what they have seen the news that reportedly

$57.00 offices off this special unit. who were with those 2 policemen who punched this old gentleman to the to the floor and didn't help him for quite a while afterwards while he was bleeding out of his ear 57 officers resigned in protest in protest in protest for having those officers. pushed off the force by their own police chief this doesn't sit well with those people here and this is explained to if for them what is wrong with police here in america. stephan simons reporting from minneapolis thank you so much. the turmoil that has gripped america over the death of george floyd has turned the spotlight on racism and other countries you have used bellow reports now in his own experience as a black person living here in germany he also notes that allegations of racism and

police brutality elsewhere in europe. are. this memorial to george floyd popped up last weekend. while he died of the huns of a policeman in the u.s. his death is also being used to bring awareness to racism here in germany and across the world. it is hard to find a country without any form of racism and i experienced that here as well in berlin as the staring and of course with comments and statements about my skin color. but you kind of move around the city as a black person without being aware obviously and color on average there are $3.00 to $4.00 racist incidents reported per day in the german capital according to the berlin register for discrimination and not everyone is reporting them so there could be far more. that's why the blackhawks matter movement has also been protesting here in berlin and while europe has fewer deadly incidents involving the

police some cases have stayed with me again you know with not that long ago only giallo burned to death in the police cell here in germany in 2005 no one was convicted for his death. in the u.k. in 2011 mark duggan was shot by a policeman who was never convicted. in france adama died during police custody in 2016 and no one has been found responsible for his death that's why the protests in france have been violent. people are frustrated with structural racism. hasn't really dealt with its links to slavery and. here in germany several streets and named after individuals from the country's colonial period like in berlin's african

quarter where even now some streets bear the names of germany's most infamous and brutal cologne new figures whether it's history oh every day racism black people's experiences are being ignored and that's why i'm also frustrated we need to address every day racism and also the past because that's the only way to move forward. and out of the stories making news around the out results president also now has threatened to pull his country out of the world health organization. unless it stops being a quote hottest political organization in our would follow steps taken by a us president donald trump who has attacked the w h o l for its coronavirus response brazil has the world's 3rd highest covert 1900 death told. president donald trump has reportedly ordered the pentagon to cut cut the number of u.s. troops stationed in germany by nearly a 3rd according to government sources cited by the wall street journal of around

earlier we spoke to our correspondent bigots mast and we asked her whether the u.k. was prepared both politically and economically to leave the e.u. without a deal at the end of the year. this is a nice woodburn's johnson and his governments are insinuating they're saying well we do want a deal however we don't want to deal at any cost but we do know that the u.k. economy is already deeply hit by the corona crisis is the deepest economic crisis the country has ever been and if on top of that there is a no deal bragg's it which might mean terrorists. on various goods and then really acrimonious split with its closest trading partners that would be a fad ahead for the u.k. economy we know for example that so-called makers are saying well they have to relocate their plants so it would be a really really deep hit for the u.k. economy on top of all the political damage that that would cause.

the beginning remember it's a very cosmopolitan city a lot of international guests coming here tourists and tourists also brought many cases the virus to the area but in the early stages of the outbreak the numbers where still a very low because the south africa implemented a very strict lockdown as you as you have mentioned and that way the number stayed low but now for weeks they have been easing these restrictions and it was clear from the 1st place that the numbers which be going up and at the moment we see this massive explosion of coronavirus cases specially here and we're seeing a spread specially in the townships in the poorer areas of the city where people live in very poor circumstances in very congested areas and it's very difficult for them obviously to to social systems in many cases. this year marks the 250th anniversary of the birth of the composer fake fund p 2 of his 6 symphony known as the pastoral symphony is being used as part of an appeal to protect the environment musicians worldwide have created their own compositions inspired by the work and
