chinese. is the aft steel and. on all sides wake up. and we visit a city in thailand that's being televised by monkeys with no tourists to feed them because of the pandemic gangs of the hungry animals roaming the streets. welcome to the program china's national people's congress has passed a controversial security law for hong kong that critics fear will give beijing more control over the semi autonomous territory some people in hong kong showed their support for the new law pro-democracy activists opposed to. the strict freedom and is that with the one country 2 systems policy agreed by try. when he took control
12:02 pm
of the former british colony in 1907 britain has called the new law a grave step but hong kong's chief executive cunningham said the norwood only targets a small criminal minority. done enough in hong kong as pro-democracy activist wong disha when the chief executive says the no one target only a small criminal minority do you believe. no i don't think we can barely carry lemon saying that the law will react in fact a small portions of people because at last you can see there are almost 2000000 people on the street and that demonstrate how and how much distrust we have towards the government and that's not the scariest thing about this law it's not about how many people that it's going to vest or how many people it's going to take and it's near detainments a still a ts but they fear that a lot generates and it will turn into like tara and hong kong that stops here program speaking out and the whole be terrified to speak out against china and
12:03 pm
speak up against all human rights allegation that it has systematically committed and this is the most worrying part of the law it's not actually and not about what is inside a lot but the fear that. i know of would leak to in hong kong because people are now really terrified about what may happen and even ordinary citizens will refrain from talk and speaking out we're talking about politics anymore because they're afraid that the law would affect them if entropy so i don't believe in kerry lamb saying that's what this is only targeting a small pleasure people it's actually targeting and it's aiming at destroying to freedom of speech that we used to have in the city being that is it me and you all to speak about the fear does not mean that hong kong's pro-democracy movement is effectively dead. no it's not at all we are calling for protests tomorrow on the 1st of july even though the police house has banned it and define it as an illegal profits of anyone shows up but this is our right to go to process and this is our
12:04 pm
right to speak up against whatever we find is in jest i'm just and i don't think a movement will die because even though they are political parties that have to stand and hong kong but we as far as individuals who are still gonna fight for their freedom that want to serve and human rights in a fundamental rights that we ought to have so i don't think anyone can declare that data dependent movement and how come. you would continue to fight in your other colleagues in the pro-democracy movement but then what change will that lead to apparently no one is listening to you at least in hong kong and certainly not beijing. i i cannot say that many have achieved really of right results of course because at the factors the law is being implemented and how come very certain and but i see it changing attitudes toward china from the international community so i'm calling for thanks nash community to impose sanctions or take whatever effective measure that is to stop china from compromising our cities
12:05 pm
freedom and independence because it will and the autonomy of our city because it well for sure head to the world at last and it doesn't matter if we have achieved results yet because this is the right thing to do and we are doing it not because we see we have hope or anything but it was the right thing for us to do leisure in hong kong thank you very much the e.u. has also been expressing concern about the security northmore did barbara views on dragunov from brussels barbara what has the reaction been in the. the e.u. has reacted in a rather more straightforward way than it used to deal with china in the past we deplore the decision it risks undermining the autonomy off hong kong that might be sincere or severe consequences for china if this is carried out and carried to the extreme the e.u. will talk to its international partners in order to coordinate a response it's
12:06 pm
a breach of china's international international obligation so we have heard sort of the whole diplomatic verbiage here but in a rather strict and very straight manner a sharper the tone is sharper than that you have found it with china in the past because just last week the heads of the european union had a video conference with the chinese government and it was an extremely frustrating experience the chinese were not ready to give or move on any point so now the question is what is going to happen next we heard the words today what it will be see deeds will we see action from the european union you also mentioned severe consequences being words that are doing good on you but how much leverage does the you really have on china considering china for girls is one of the top trigged of the u. . yeah but china is also the top trading partner for the e.u.
12:07 pm
is the top trading partner for china i mean this cuts both ways obviously so theoretically we could say the european union has tremendous leverage towards china because if they say we close our doors and you can just go away and do whatever you want we have nothing to do was you anymore i mean that would leave china completely isolated completely out in the cold all exports would would be cut off it's not imaginable because of course we look at the economic situation in germany where exports are flowing into china of course so this really is a situation that mines the 2 sides together but the e.u. is increasingly frustrated that china will not yield to any of its reasonable demands and we have reached the point where relations are really sliding into this deep freeze mode that we haven't seen in decades and it seems dangerous pass and of course european union is now looking towards washington hoping for is somewhat more
12:08 pm
reliable partner there it wants to talk about sanctions rises and it is coming already and the german presidency of the european union will have to deal with this very tricky issue within the next 6 months but of years and in brussels thank you very much for that sending a team to china next week in an effort to search for the origin of the virus the doctor which also warned that the pandemic was caught speeding up a case surge in the australian state of victoria has prompted the visuals to order a month long the lockdown of. the measures affect hundreds of thousands of residents in the country's 2nd largest city restrictions are also being tightened in the british city of leicester where new infections accounted for 10 percent of all cases in england last week businesses be closed from today and schools will follow suit next week the e.u. has named 14 countries whose citizens it deems safe to 19 from the 1st of july australia canada and japan not among those countries the us brazil and china are
12:09 pm
not on the safe midst. the future are off for europe after the pandemic that was the main topic as german chancellor angela merkel and french president. met beilin it was their 1st face to face meeting since the pandemic it back in march the 2 leaders were eager to shore that they were united on a multi 1000000000 euro plan they say is true. future the greeting was distanced because of coronavirus but warm nonetheless it is not by chance that the man who is the 1st foreign leader to meet with chancellor merkel since the virus crisis began the pair spearheading a 500000000000 euro proposal for rebuilding europe's economy are the pandemic these are 2 leaders who want to work together and be the driving force for europe. that's going on that we understand that europe is not united nearly because germany and
12:10 pm
france agree but when germany and france disagree it does not look so good for unity in europe so perhaps we can find agreement on many questions and make a contribution and give a positive impulse to new things in the right direction for europe's future. even as germany prepares to take over the presidency of the e.u. on the 1st of july america is more central than ever to the future of the block the french president for his part wants to be seen to be injecting his own energy and ideas into the tandem he brought with him from paris a proposal for a new environmental levy and he spoke of how european values have prevailed during the pandemic. across europe there has been an open and transparent debate from the start i think our citizens should be aware of what that means in many other parts of the world some more severely affected by the virus
