and a symbol of racism or a sign of respect for the german town of cobol praful split its cultural legacy as protest built against its cold evolved. as welcome to the program the united states has broken yet another coronavirus record 75000 new infections in one day that's almost as many as china's official 6 months tally florida is the new epicenter now on friday the sunshine state we called it more than 11000 new cases state also recorded a 4th consecutive day with more than 100 deaths florida screwed up with the governor from the sun tissue is facing criticism for his handling of the pandemic blamed the high numbers on increased testing in the state. our correspondent

is in miami outside the jackson memorial hospital stuff and we are seeing grim new figures what's the situation like on the ground there in miami. there describe the situation absolutely accurate it is horrible situation florida is a so-called red state red states there are 18 in the united states and this terminology stems from a report which was prepared for the coronavirus task force in washington d.c. in the white house which the white house has not made public yet but it is true florida has tremendous new infection cases numbers here yesterday 13000 today 11000 in the days not over here in miami dade county and in miami so doctors we talked to from the jackson memorial hospital they do not expect any good news for the next following days or today in terms of infection rates and death rates remember effects and rates is one thing death rates is another important

number and hospital hospitalization rates the problem in miami is that the hospitals do not have enough i.c.u. beds anymore they're actually over capacity that means they have to create more beds as i.c.u. beds that they actually have planned for originally so were the people taking the situation seriously. asked to tell you no they don't in. large amounts people here seem to be oblivious or just don't care or are in an uninformed about what really is necessary and then again we talked to medical professionals here and they said it's very very simple it comes to really really something really really simple where a mess where mess do not engage with large crowds and keep social distancing a life do it stay 6 feet apart. in public in enclosed

rooms and wear a mask but this message does not seem to come through not here in miami not in florida not in arizona at all in calif. fornia not in many many other states i could go on and on and on numbers coronavirus infections are rising wide because the states have pulled back on their measures no more mandates and people do apparently not want to wear masks. states have. sort of retreated on that that measures that they're put up against the coronavirus what is governor dissent is proposing to get the infection rates under control then. good question these are you proposing anything to get the actively proposing something new to get the effects of rate under under control dissenters as well as a few other governors for example the governor in georgia seem to think policies for the for the noise to that helicopter medical i call it up there from the

hospital you take it off. to governors in those states like here in florida and georgia seem to think that there's no way that they want to roll back into a shutdown and. therefore they trust that their medical systems are able to handle an increasing infection rate their reluctance to mandatory to issue a mandatory mask wearing order to the public stephanie months reporting from miami thank you. leaders of the european union are meeting in brussels to try and bridge their differences over a 750000000000 euro recovery fund which aims to help the bloc rebuild from the coronavirus pandemic german chancellor angela merkel chairs the talks as germany currently holds the e.u. council's rotating presidency and she's admitted that finding a compromise won't be easy the key sticking point is whether the money should be

given to countries or grants or as loans in the main proponents of lending the money are those so-called frugal fall that's austria sweden finland and the netherlands. a little earlier i spoke to the co president of the european greens philip lamberti and brussels i also hope to mistake here is that leaders will be able to reach an agreement on the on that recovery fund. terry your last i don't know i would say shift issue. some speak about the fact that he said he could be going to 0 and no one would be going to be included this month but frankly speaking i do not know what new element would sort of face. the landscape i mean all the elements are on the table all of her uterus. economy consequence is needed responses are on the table and now is for the european leaders to show that they are leaders at least able to rise to the occasion and

show political courage like chancellor merkel did earlier this month when she decided to make a u. turn and so-called. borrowing by the europeans don't seem dead so says the german government center if you will still far you said no no no new elements on the table but it appears there are the czech prime minister for example said he wants to be able to use the coronavirus money for the car industry bulgaria wants to spend the money on agriculture in the polls and hungary and don't want any ethical conditions attached so there are new elements if you will and do you think all those new demands are legitimate. i might see this maybe use some of the money in the need to be invested in the car industry so much of it may be invested in india or actually the question is to what i mean eat this is to basically sure. this is going to be

a purpose if this is to help every juncture be going green or it is to have the car industry becoming greener and why not why not indeed what we need is this funny to invest friend so no we are not going to give this money to. companies who is no strings attached we want this money to be invested in making the european economy moral bus and more resilient and if that is the case or maybe indeed all the industries can be going greener and you're. going green and find whether green can there's no you mentioned that proby won't be well received in hungary or for example or republic. does this crisis show that the cohesion and solidarity in the e.u. is waning further. well when he shows his. profound lack of trust among european leaders division some other people indeed are seeing

global financial crises what you see centrist is being destroyed. massive quantities and we need now in an emergency situation to rebuild trust and of course it's better to enter a crisis. indeed a level of trust is made in a little bit again it's in everyone's interest to call response and i'm sure that he can he talk about understand because he has been on the receiving end of my seat here and friends over the last few decades and i mean i'm sure that if he has a choice between well getting these money flowing to the country strings attached. and getting no money i have no idea where it is hard to will be. president of the european greens think you very much for joining us tonight my pleasure and i save. time not to have a brief look at some of the other stories making news around the world today queen

there really nothing else to worry about. we've got bigger problems than the coburg more this is he's the patron saint of coburg and i find this whole discussion out of order. to be i mean he's never said anyone can stay as it is the crest dates back to the middle ages when black people were often described as morse today the term is viewed as derogatory but it's not intended to be demeaning according to coburg historian who battles harbored the emblem features st marie a black christian night he was martyred and is now come emirate aid. in it's possible if not to that extent i think the word more is ok. and the representation of a black man as the symbol of coburg is absolutely fine it's an expression of esteem

and veneration for the saint so. that's not a view shared by 2 young billionaires who started an online petition against coburg coat of arms alicia archie is originally from the area for her calling a black man a more is no longer acceptable in the light of the black lives matter movement and especially not a figure with thick lips and a caribbean style earring. that you and i don't mind that suggests to some that all black people and all africans look the same a complete nonsense for a continent where people look totally different from one another. others find something exotic in it a ferocity that has to do with savage peoples. it's a racist portrayal that should not be allowed to continue to. fight and that this man steps in. the town council is irritated by the debate and is

not giving any interviews on the subject of the coat of arms the answer could be just to change the description says this resident. he's got a name after all militias why shouldn't it be the coburg militias militias pharmacy militias streatch that sounds better how do you measure culture what is racist it's not easy to find the right balance especially not in coburg. police in italy have foiled a plot to smuggle cocaine into the country hidden inside the coffee beans police said the package from colombia attracted the attention because it was marked with the name of a fictional mafia boss inside worth 500 coffee been cut open and stuffed with cocaine police tracked the package to florence and arrested the intended recipient it's not the 1st time smugglers have tried to use coffee to throw police off the
