flouting of his own administration guidelines on the come down make an event with you wearing masks and seats close together he promised to bring the coronavirus under control. we're getting great there's someone further present to bite as a radical and a danger to society also by making claims that have proven to be untrue. make no mistake if you give power to joe biden the radical left will defy police departments all across america they will pass federal legislation to reduce law enforcement nationwide they will make every city look like democrat run portland oregon. no one will be safe in biden's america. critics say chumps aim is to stoke fan cast himself as the savior of the nation. the old he's fiery triumphalism campaign he's only now just beginning. william blue cross from our us election teams with us now for more i see william and i and when we look at this

speech it comes as a new zogby poll from wednesday puts trump's approval rating at 52 percent that's very surprising could this speech win over in light of that. undecided voters are new momentum here it is surprising and it should be said the zogby poll has a long history of being inaccurate and favoring republicans favoring trump it's a poll that trump actually likes to cite themself a la. $5538.00 gives only a c. plus this particular poll has a more at least a 5 point margin of error so we should take this this poll and really any individual poll with a grain of salt going back to $538.00 that looks at lots of polls and weights them differently still has donald trump in the low forty's for his approval rating which has been holding about steady there for for months if not most of his term that said it's not unusual for candidates in this case the incumbent to come out of the commission and get a bump there's been days now of wall to wall wall to wall media coverage. of the

candidate of the campaign so we might see a bump indeed in the next couple of days from donald trump. but it's a long way to go in in convincing voters who to vote for yet is in decided for in the polls they've done it so wrong in the like that as well did they did donald trump make a convincing case in his speech for handling the coronavirus convincing yes real not so much we should always be careful with superglue to votes for being accurate donald trump loves to use a pro and we should always be very skeptical whenever we hear about being the most the best the greatest of anything especially when it comes to donald trump we don't have time to fact check everything he said about his handling of corona virus just to give you one number if we compare the united states to here in germany the u.s. has had 9 times the number of cases per 1000000 people and it's had 5 times the number of deaths per 1000000 people and you can say you contribute some of that to widespread testing yes but of course we know that germany has also done extensive

testing and when it's come to testing when it when it's come to getting protective gear defer to front line workers when it comes to we're lying on science and not politicizing the science that's a very murky record for donald trump that said he's also poured billions of ministration billions of dollars into what's called operation warp speed this way to find a very quickly a vaccine for the corona virus if that pays off he will be able to take credit for that and we've heard that he's promising a vaccine by the end of the year which is maybe possible but it also doesn't matter so much because what happens before the end of the year the election so he can really live on this promise that a vaccine is coming you should vote for me and keep this momentum going towards a vaccine a vaccine is one of the many issues the president says he wants a debate with joe biden yesterday joe biden said he's ready to debate the president in spite of the fact that nancy pelosi speaker of the house said don't do it that'll legitimize donald trump where is this headed are the democrats going to agree. to

a debate certainly would be i mean we already have debates on the schedule for months already i doubt that's going to change what pelosi suggests in that press conference is really a nonstarter it would just feed into the very narrative that donald trump and its allies like to say which is the media is against me democrats are against me they're scared they're biased i'm ready to come out and debate the issues why aren't you you really it's a no win situation biden has got to go up there and debate him and they should not underestimate donald trump we remember him in 2016 and the republicans have a long history for decades now whether it's reagan carter bush dukakis george w. bush and john kerry a long record of just democrats not necessarily on the facts but on passion on emotion and really getting people. to their side of whatever their issue is whatever their their vision of their campaign is so you're expecting debate to move forward i mean i can't imagine it not happening ok with both nominees in place what

can we expect from their campaigns as you know what do we do we down to 70 odd days $68.00 days it's so far and right around the corner. this is going to be this is going to be an intense campaign for as much as the coronavirus allows that there's already been a lot of parallels being drawn to the 1968 nixon campaign which focused a lot on law and order in fact there was a nixon ad i was just watching where at the end of his ad it said vote like your whole world depends on it that's almost word for word what michelle obama said last week at the democratic national convention it's being framed as an existential election those little both sides it's being framed as an existential election this is the most important election of your lifetime this is something americans have been hearing for decades so it's a bit of a boy who cries wolf situation it's going to be a law and order campaign versus a social justice campaign and who can convince especially suburban voters which is the truth that's probably who's going to be the victory the victor in this years.

election ok and i think we can even see of something that i'll trump had to say about all of that let's take a look at that. as long as i am president we will defend the absolute right a very american citizen to live in security dignity in peace if the democratic party wants to stand with and our kids agitators rioters looters and flag burners that is up to them but i as your president will not be a part of it the republican party will remain the voice of the patriotic arrows who keep america safe and salute the american flag. so guns god flag the good old days this is been reliable republican rhetoric for decades and i don't think democrats underestimate it ok williams ever thanks for coming in absolutely ok in 2017 chance in acol declared an open door policy for

refugees escaping the civil war in syria now as a result germany took in about a 1000000 migrants 1300000 although not all of them were qualified to stay one of those who did qualify was from here's a story. his songs tell of pain and a lost homeland but also hope kind of years ago pianist fled syria specifically the young look refugee camp for palestinians. back there he played music to counter the nightmare scene bomb craters and ruined buildings and created beauty to fight despair. was hungry or so and i don't kown feed my family but i was keeping playing piano we die anyway we would die from hunger in 56 days when when i don't die play piano. at least it's helped me i don't

think music it's feed people or helped people really it's helped the mentality to see at least some of the whites white a place in the in all this got us through off in the other more comp. yarmulkes a neighborhood of damascus it was under constant siege from i asked troops for years people there had no electricity no food or medicine and played music. and bad game in the images of him playing went viral when a ham fled to germany in 2015 he was already a minor celebrity and was quickly offered a public stage but he felt uncomfortable with the attention. that. i am here famous playing piano the pianist of the arm or what we are a group of people i try to keep in connection with him it's not easy and when somebody is still dying from hunger and you tell him look we speak about you here

what it's done for me there you know this is this is not easy here he is performing at a refugee shelter in berlin and a celebration marking 5 years since chancellor angela merkel's we can do it statement in the meantime ahab's wife and sons have joined him and he can work play in concert people listen to him. i am not start on the liver liver feel like i was taught i feel responsible to tell of this blah blah blah what i tell acknowledge it's important maybe it's not so important for people to hear it but at least i feel responsible to tell it and i you use every mike every camera to tell that 4 people a ham songs deal with what he's experienced and he's also written his autobiography which was published in germany last year in it he tells of his father who built musical instruments and of his own childhood in a still peaceful syria he tells of the children he watched die and of the moment when i asked fighters burned his piano. but constantly retelling his story takes

its toll. when i go on with this a story and remembering your more cream i'm buying the war it's really too heavy here and this is why i will stop the music because when i go on. the pianist and the trombone or that its image but the horrible images from a hamas mads past won't stop so easily hopefully he won't give up music it helped him during his darkest times and it helps him now allowing him to make a living and a new life in germany. that. this is did of you let's get you a reminder now of our top stories this hour germany's jails are all america has warned against foreign intervention in belarus that's why the russia she said bill russians should enjoy freedom without the threat of outside interference comes as

the e.u. prepares to impose sanctions on high level the russian officials. and japanese prime minister shinzo abbay has announced his resignation this comes just days after he became the longest serving holder of that office he's putting because of health problems. don't forget you can always get more of these and other stories at our website work at our social media feeds for now though for me brian thomas in the entire team factory.

india. on this california milk is not the main product. gets dumped. to be junk farming is that next level organic farming here local regions are treated like stars as are the mountains that they leave behind it's valuable material for the earth and souvenirs eco. 66 w. . beethoven chose to do took to get to did. it is it is about a $160.00. 0 s. movie be the true rock'n'roll.

a political leader in japan. jobbies japan's longest continuous oven prime minister out and now he intends to resign it's health reasons that are forcing him to go but how will this impact japan's relations with countries in the region. and infected with the coronavirus despite isolation under more indian tribes with just 2 or 50 members contracts to codify just on the remote island how to divide us get. ibish banditry welcome to do. that you could join us with japanese prime minister shinzo abi set to design the future of japan's relations with countries in the region is suddenly and open question during his tenure. to build an alliance with the united states. india and australia primarily with the aim of counted in china's

influence i'll be speaking to an expert about what the future of those stars is but 1st here's more on the strategic direction our big give japan. shinzo abhi steered japan's defense strategy in a radical new direction he pledged to revise depends pacifist post world war 2 constitution to counter change and security threats in the region. and his 1st speech to the nation he said the security of japan is not someone else's problem it is a crisis that exists right there and now those words set the tone for japan's defense over his years as prime minister as to ward off a newly assertive china making incursions into japanese waters and expanding its territorial claims in the south china sea. north korea has also posed

a nuclear armed menace with frequent missile tests to demonstrate his muscular stance abbay loosened a ban on arms exports and in 2015 his party pushed through controversial legislation for so-called collective self-defense allowing japanese troops to engage in overseas combat with allied forces. the law drew strong opposition domestically and a later push to revise the pacifist constitution failed. aves military reforms and containment diplomacy have upset china its largest trading partner. allies like u.s. president donald trump have confronted china with sanctions. but obvious had to find a balance between competing and cooperating with china despite his radical security ambitions i needle his successor will likely also have to thread.

so what happens next simon then here is the washington post bureau true for japan in the careers and he joins me now from tokyo simon i'd like to look at japan's relations with china are 1st where do you see them headed after since the obvious steps down well because of ups and downs in the relationship it seems at times journalist started off really badly on the right place to his work last hard to improve them actually in the last few years so you know it's clearly very interesting to see with china tries to exploiting this and push its territorial claims to the same cargo islands is already threatening to do that it's the more active around leasing kharkov the i.u. islands this of course as china calls them so so we may see china as it's done with india seeing an opportunity to push its territorial claims in the absence of our

day and the world is leadership transitions going on that's something to keep an eye on oh there was some talk of a so-called new era in ties between japan and china and it was mostly done decisions are buried in fact visited china as well to try and smaller than the things over do you think that is a thing of the past now. i mean i don't think it's necessarily a thing of the past i think whoever comes in after our day is like he's a continue to try to do this but you know japan china relations they're never going to be best friends they do have water i'm issues they've seen them japan is now of america china and the united states are you know kiddy not seeing eye to eye far from it so japan is kind of caught in the middle of a stunt quite a good job i think of patching things up and not lessing that sort of not letting the china relationship to its here 8 but i don't think you know we're really talking about whether talking about

a golden era we're talking about sort of both sides could hang their differences aside and just getting on with things more than more than real friendship dramas also considered an important partner for the united states india and australia in the indo-pacific region do you see that their cooperation simon continuing and broadly speaking yes i do i think that you know japan is very committed to being a partner alliance of democracies in asia and beyond the pacific region as you say it's really racing to see how the relationship with the united states develops so if trump if president trump doesn't get another term in office i think that japan probably would have liked to have had some elections are they a guess on very well it's front as a prime minister. trump hasn't really taken a mature and that he's always kind of threatens to so it could be quite rocky project plan if you don't have our way that and if trump were to win another term

obviously if it's biden and whoever succeeds rb i think relations between japan and the us will be pretty will be pretty smooth a lot of ifs and buts there but plenty to watch out for but thanks so much for this conversation simon down here in tokyo thank you so much dr. 10 members of a remote indian tribe have tested positive for the coronavirus the victor and the mini's tribe members numbered just around 50 and live on an island in the remote and the moon's archipelago the island chain lies southeast of india and is closer to me in moscow than the mainland the greater and the mini's tribe lives on straight island one of the 37 inhabited islands in the occupied ago they defections among the tribe have raised concerns internationally as well this is what survival international an organization that supports indigenous people

worldwide have to say to them to be facing this devastating fire it seems is just another tragedy in the long history of the problems that they've been facing because of. the contact with people outside and weeping watching full some time to know those think creasing in the end the men's rights a lot of them have written so yes not all stories expressing our concern about reaching the try so let's get more on this from my colleague spawn of money dr audrey joining me now from a demi money don't force tribe that lives on a remote island how did 10 members contract the virus and how it all taught these reacting. well they should have been reported that some member of this tribal group despite going to try to do the used to work small jobs in the capital city. and there were some other people also who used to make frequent travels between the secluded island and between the city possibly that's where they got the drug the

infection into the islands from and the authority of the force are on alert right now you know their own field stop while taking their own precautions are with that in the areas they are sensitizing the people from the tribe a group about it they are asking them to take all precautions all the members of this particular tribe a group what death did a couple of years ago and that is how they figured out that dent people of this group are infected right now so the authority that the moment are planning on conducting even more testing to make sure because a number of people who are still not recovered from this particular group are being treated right now couple of them are in the hospital and a couple of them are being put in isolation in a call that gets sent out to ensure that they don't they don't come in touch with the other people of the group right and the and the means themselves off to other tribes as my mother or more tribes i must say what's being done to protect them from the coronavirus. well yes the administration is on full alert as i mentioned

and the andaman islands are actually home to 5 such tribes it's a classified as bts e.r.d. particularly one of the tribal groups now these type of groups they are a view has officials are of the opinion that their immunity cannot be adjusted upon they do have some of these tribal groups they do have a good deal and they are already suffering from some long term impact diseases so that immunity to the call would $1000.00 might even be less so at the moment what they're doing is they're planning last testing that they are moving some of these started with to even file the islands to make sure that that is no outside a presence there no outside entry or you that actually stop it within these areas to sensitise them about the virus and that's about it that even once during the other tribal groups to ensure that then we're not going into other areas where they can't come in contact with anybody was outside that other community so the democrats wanted money on a trial in delhi thank you very much for that. is preparing for

national elections due early in november but members of the country's rohingya muslim minority are being barred from running and even voting in the poll activists say it's part of me and must systematic prosecution of the group which reached its pinnacle in a military crackdown the forced hundreds of thousands to flee the country we spoke to one group trying to get his name on the ballot. rejection. after rashid is excluded from the a mass election in november officials accuse him of having foreign roots although he was born here he's one of the few members of the range a muslim minority to hafnium our citizenship. and so do his parents. know we are god. this is a pension that helps my father. and this is the updated idea of my mother the lection commission rejected me even though i have submitted the canada c.

form and all required documents i don't know what the problem is your child. november's election would take place with at least a dozen run into muslims trying to become candidates but 6 have been barred alledged leave because they failed to prove their parents were citizens at the time of the birth just like rashid for 10 years ago some ranges did enter parliament then in 2015 the government stripped me a mosque range of muslims of identity documents the right to run and to vote then i really don't sense that you had believed that the election commission founded by own sons to cheer to a democratic government would follow the democratic norms and the human rights standards and protect citizenship rights that's why we nominated our candidates who also qualified in 2010. we can understand the previous situation where the former governmental backed by the military did not follow these norms but it is difficult to understand why on some sooty and a democratic government would do the same. after sheets pile of documents for

now it's worth nothing. meanwhile as the november election approaches many revenge of muslims are hoping to at least be able to vote to secure a better future in manama. that's a finale there's mall on our website you double dot com for what slash. japanese prime minister shinzo abi has decided to bow out of the country's top job we leave you with a look back at i'll be on the wall on stage and also his political career back on monday you know that by.

combating the corona pandemic. where does research stand. what are scientists learning. background information and news. hour carona update. 19 special next on d w. 6 to go beyond yes. as we take on the world. all of the stories that matter to you. but never. mind. you could see it from space shown in red china's air pollution cleared up

dramatically during the great lock down. less traffic and closed factories so thick smog give way to blue skies. air travel is responsible for 7 percent of greenhouse gases long haul flights were down 90 percent it. could be a roadmap to a green a future. we've seen with the drastic measures that china has taken with regard to corona that the missions have gone down seriously so people are working from home and manufacturing a slowdown so these are the kinds of drastic measures that we will have to take for climate change no one wants a 2nd lockdown but we've caught a glimpse of a list polluting world the challenge is aiming for that while avoiding the damage to our livelihoods and the economy. the blue economy is thriving thanks to the global disruptions to industrial fishing as seen some fish stocks explode that's

brought back these guys to places like portugal but i think it's a state when everything returns to normal the fish could run out again we'll bring you that report in a moment 1st german chancellor angela merkel says the world's not doing enough to combat climate change she's pledge to accelerate efforts. will phillips quite see he is from the market all research institute on global commons and climate change felix how do you balance the planet's needs and ours does it does it mean changing our consumption habits. it may mean that you're covered 95 actually run all. night and holidays and who equally nice still have their options and to learn that that was not possible to do though but hold him up you cannot. fault of his

opinions that need like a structure as opposed to the post and to many who have it who have this master plan to change it. and at a political level europe's largest greenhouse gas meter is germany and germany would have missed its 2020 climate targets hadn't it been for the pandemic it's slashed emissions basically forests anglo-american once a carbon pricing mechanism for the e use industry and transport sectors is is that an answer in your opinion yes definitely like economists consciousness they have a compromise that is one of the best places and like you have the community. as a model of the plan that you've already. and sometimes lamentable of that. promise and one because. if you read the basic. and he and the for all the. off the

top the cost. is just going to. that's the biggest concern i guess is jobs because if you start getting industry or all these companies trying to foot the bill i'm sure they're going to say well we're going to have to lay off stuff. we're going to tell you about the good with that. he's the lady who was. on the roof of opportunities digitization also hold you just so it was me about to get him into this new job and not just be on the board. or also want to post a level lot i can't believe the amount of discarded mosques i've seen on the streets people just don't seem to get it i mean it's hard enough to get them to wear a mask in the 1st place but they can even throw to tobin afterwards how do you get the health of our planet through to people. i'm optimistic. and then need to act together to come out of the pandemic and i didn't know the

back. half of this but. the muck and if you don't who are strong with the infection anything and we can hurt it could have a few. safe until you have and you're seeing that the connection you think gives i'm optimistic here because i mean you you do see that people are very worried very scared about their health all of a sudden. and it's a disconnect almost because the health of our planet i mean a healthy planet would mean a lot healthier lifestyles for us. that's interesting things like eating less meat on the mark but i think you also have your boss on the planet. you have. that. same but. you're not. ready to go who is this one. and it's obviously

a 2 way street fix quite see schrum the medical research institute on global commons and climate change thanks very much for being on the show today. well on the state of our oceans the last time a global crisis hit the fishing industry was the 2nd world war the closure of the north sea and out cold and haddock to thrive there were big catches throughout the 1950s something similar is happening in portugal. for the people of lisbon this is nothing short of a small miracle dolphins have returned to the river tog estrie as a biologist inish claro often went dolphin watching in the azores today she works as a sailing instructor because of the pandemic and finding work is tough especially because there are no tourists.

but in addition her boss say this is a silver lining is still one thing of you know me this year there are more sardines and macro in the ocean that's what the dolphins like feeding on free wish this presence of. course the main cause of you is there a massive 50 kilos stone bass as well huge cirrus and we've never seen this many sardines were the crazy. they say the water quality of recent tog has improved a lot due to the lockdown that and the decline in industrial fishing as encourage the dolphins to return and the fact that no noisy crew ships are harboring in the portuguese capital helps too as dolphins are very sensitive to noise. but i think the last ships are very invasive dolphins are disturbed by them and avoid swimming up the river we. know it was. the shooter vessels are not docking here right now due to the pandemic the authorities and there's been

a using this time to make the city more environmentally friendly they've pledged that by 2022 docked crew ships must stop their motors to reduce emissions. because you could eventually every cruise ship docked in lisbon will have to be connected to the electricity grid to reduce sulfur dioxide emissions or cut pollution in the city with the other guy the. initial hopes that the expected and. chrisman temp water quality and decline of noise pollution will keep the fish and the dolphins near the beach that way lisbon could live up to its nickname of europe's green capital long after the pandemic is over. and what better time to ask if the global battle against the coronavirus is actually working let's take a little look at the most up to date data that's come through from over 200 countries and territories new cases have doubled in 29 countries

and increased in 70 countries in all new case numbers stayed at the same level in 10 nations 73 countries have seen new positive cases for cope with 19 go down. the reported case numbers haft in 16 countries and 11 have reported no new cases for 4 weeks in a row is the biograph stacked up against the statistics of the last weeks remember the battle is won when that entire chart is blue there is a long way to go another part of the show when there are williams takes over the helm our science correspondent has been looking into your questions on the corona virus. what's dangerous is the pneumonia why not find a cure or treatment for the pneumonia instead of the virus. pneumonia is a blanket term that's generally defined as a more or less serious inflammation of tissue in your air passages and or your

lungs it can be caused by a number of different pathogens both both viral and bacterial pneumonia that cove in $1000.00 can cause is generally initiated by the virus and can't be treated for example with antibiotics which only kill bacteria when they're infected with source code to the cells in the small sacs in their lawns where where gas exchange occurs what are called the alveoli begin to die and clog the lungs up and that can eventually lead to what's called an acute respiratory distress syndrome as the pneumonia progresses the situation can be exacerbated by the immune system causing massive inflammation which is which is supposed to help get infection under control but which can actually make things worse so so treating or curing coronavirus

pneumonia means either addressing the problem at its root which is the sars code to infection itself or somehow toning down the body's immune response to it when it goes over the top. in other news e.u. trade commissioner phil hogan is resigning amid allegations he bridged lockdown restrictions in island and we could go hogan attended a go for dinner with over 80 people sparking a national outcry the irish government says his actions undermined public confidence. now what do you miss from pretty locked down days i've certainly got a long list if live concerts is one of them well this next story might be one for you tell near los angeles is now holding rooftop gigs and give everyone the best seat in the house with balcony views of the action. california has called off
