u.s. president donald trump is out of hospital and actively campaigning from the white house we don't know if he's up to be free of covered 19 yet because no one will say but now he's proc how will he rescue a company that's harboring around 14 points behind his rival joe biden and how do we counter michelle obama's new attack until. this is the day. we're going back to work back to work going to be out front it's a serious problem i know there's a risk there's a danger but that's ok there's a lot to be concerned about don't let it dominate you. don't be afraid i hope no one walks away with thinking it is not

a problem don't let it take over your lives. and their own better maybe i'm a mutant i don't know. also on the day a slump in business hits london's financial center hot the coronavirus pandemic turns the city of london into a ghost town people come back into the city. so we can get back to some. we have one book the christian. welcome to the day donald trump is back at the white house and back in action after 3 days in the world surveyed medical center being treated for coverage 19 the president tweeted today that he's feeling great and ready to take on his democratic challenger joe biden in the next debate his doctor says the u.s. president is doing extremely well and reporting no symptoms of covered 19 but there

is no word on whether he is still infectious or when he last took a test despite this the president is continuing to downplay the seriousness of his infection and the threat of the virus itself telling americans don't be afraid it was a determined donald trump wearing a mask he emerged on to the steps of the hospital. 4 days after he shocked the world by announcing he and 1st lady millennia had tested positive for coverage 19 trump was back after the short helicopter flight to washington crossed the white house lawn and strode up the stick case he made a point of removing his mosque offering a salute to the departing a crew and that was encourage meant for the other 7 and a half 1000000 americans who have been infected by the virus. let it dominate you

don't be afraid of it you're going to beat it we have the best medical equipment we have the best medicines all developed recently and you going to beat it i went i didn't feel so good and 2 days ago i could have left 2 days ago 2 days ago felt great like better than i have in a long time i said just recently better than 20 years ago don't let it dominate don't let it take over your lives but doctors are not convinced. i think that the president may be in a honeymoon phase as i call it in 1000 disease in the 1st it's me me the viral thing for the inflammatory phase we look for warning sign around 710 when people can actually do a lot worse require a lot more oxygen and you may get better or at that point may get a lot worse than balbi are on the weekend. those words will not be enough to deter the president in one of his many tweets on

a day of high drama chum pledge to be back on the campaign trail suit. well let's take stock of a campaign trail of chris fall calling is a republican strategist with majority strategies and the liz shoka is a former a bomb a campaign official welcome both chris folk a can we stay focused can we start with you we know that donald trump is out of hospital but no one actually knows if he's bats i know will say when he's last negative coverage test was how can he lead your campaign if he's still ill. the president's campaign and he's clearly showing that he's feeling much better positive spirit of the president always does outspoken positive an optimistic we saw that from his state it's unfortunate right now that we are so much push back from people that actively want the president to be sick and to be you know obviously discovered nineteen's cause a lot of controversy a lot of different political opinions but if you do they have some root to contract

cancer if someone were to contract the joy of you you're in the disease we want them to be strong we want them to be other than optimistic and i think this president should we use leadership by doing that ok i wonder. is that what you're getting from the message are you getting a strong positive president i think we're getting a president cares more about. the safety of the american people so now i do not think it represents a strong. time when frankly he should be quarantining and not taking at c.v. right ok but now he's back president trump says he's raring to get back to campaigning and we'll look at his tweet here i'm looking forward to the debates on the evening of thursday october the 15th in miami it's will be great so chris folks know what is this debate going to be in person. why are not i'm not as familiar with the specific details of the debate but there have been

when you're partially been put into place and i'm sure between the president the white house national security all the things that. they're going to show that the president is foreign and is healthy before there's any kind of interaction with the vice president biden just the same thing i'm sure by president biden want to make sure that he said i'm sure they'll take every precaution necessary but we have to focus on you being here in this election in the united states is incredibly important decision and we cannot let the coronavirus shut down our economy we cannot let it shut down our lives and we certainly can't let a shutdown of the markets. what do you think michele question at this presidential debate began in person effect. i think to quote i stand by we should listen to the scientists and i think the safety of the people who have to work against the candidates and south and their families should be paramount and

right now what we're seeing from president trying is his inability to pay to connect with voters and so yes you go back again and yelling and i just i'm going to cut it in 2020 so ok so meanwhile the gloves appear to have come off the former 1st lady michelle obama has released a video message accusing the president of stoking fears about black and brown americans will take a look at a part of it so what the president is doing is once again patently false it's morally wrong all and yes it is racist but that doesn't mean it will work. this message for presumably democrats already think the worst of the president and trump support just a kid to read the pill they'll forgive him anything. i think this whole election it's never up and out trump has his base has his it's about that slice in the

middle and that slice in the middle that felt uncomfortable about voting for hillary 2016 they're really feeling uncomfortable about voting for trump now so this is talking to the well meaning we all know that there are in our family who kind of wonder is this really is bad as it seems and so she's talking right directly to us oh this is racism in it you vote for it you're condoning it. it's a present racist no this is pressurising speech from former 1st lady is the same kind of condescending speech we heard from president obama when he was president as well just assuming that americans are somehow races that they're poor or seeing as if it was just to interrupt you just just just just before you say because she didn't talk about americans as being racist you talked about donald trump as being racist let's just get a. truck. she wouldn't say that unless she was trying to communicate to voters so

yourself she's trying to tell voters that hate you even though it's you know that you are racist or you might feel that way that's incredibly calm ascending to assume that americans are races united states is the most open is the most diverse and it's the let's welcoming country in the world when it comes to immigrants more comes the mixing of different races. and yes when you're president you have streets going up and flame sense is going up in flames and black people being killed by law enforcement. shock and right united states is by far not the most perfect nation in the world but i would argue the remark she is more durable and stronger and more protect the individual rights of more americans on more days or weekend in your country in the world. no one's accuse joe biden of being racist but he is just another white guy what special. i think the most important qualities to buy has consistently shown his entire

career in public service is he listens to folks and he's empathetic she knows the pain that american families are going through and he's able to show that he also knows what it means to take a step back and listen so as we grow as a society as we learn more and become more inclusive she's not too proud to sit back and listen and learn and i think that's what was shown since the beginning but also i have got to politicians i'm going to listen i'm going to listen to what the people say but joe biden grew a 14 point lead in the polls essentially by staying out of the way how is he now going to compete with a resurgent donald trump who appears to have risen from his deathbed. i mean we'll wait and see if this is a resurgent donald trump but i think joe biden will continue doing what he's been doing across the country battleground states that were never even in play are now

not such a long shot and i will stay the course he will continue connecting with people from know me safely and talking to local reporters so that folks know he's really listening to their issues and i think when you see things like trump not going after help and relief money that's not going to help and by who knows what it feels like for american folks to hurt and he's going to continue connecting on those issues final word to you chris for let's pick about that idea of continuing to do what was what he's done and not another president is apparently a big coronavirus what would he do if elected that he isn't already doing that if he is no already doing it why isn't a. i mean it's not like the virus present you got that from a virus. leading by example in terms of how he wants to get back to work whether it's our economy whether it's our schools americans want to get back to at least. like he has been proven time and time again i'm all about listening to the

scientists i agree and most of the social scientists will tell you that if this kind of shutdown mentality that nancy pelosi and joe biden want to continue to push it's going to have such a negative judgement effect to our economy the only way forward for us is to grow into get back to work in the president wants to lead us in that direction he already has shown any credible jobs record and you know as you mentioned earlier no we don't have perfect relations racial relations in the united states but president for years has done more for african-americans in minority communities than any previous president since when it comes to important issues that affect. thank you so much for joining us republican strategist. thank you. thank you. very much a service center has been hit particularly hard by the corona virus and as winter approaches prime minister barak johnson has warned of tough months ahead but it's

not only hospitality that's been here london's financial center this city has been left deserted as people from the w.c. a lot of parts. this is the latest fashion trend for bank us in london city accessorizing suits with a matching mask make this one this shop has been around for over 100 years business had always been great until the pen demick it and for 6 months he didn't make a single suit and the people come back into the city. so we can get back to some normality now though boris johnson has said everyone who can should keep working from home over the winter. policy is a disaster. so easy. for to show off the high street all the independent shops where you couldn't the big big. stores all over the. one shop. best. 9

am usually rush hour in the city not so in corona times it's hard to believe how empty the streets which are normally bustling with people cars and buses up to half a 1000000 workers come into london's financial district usually every day to work here now norman foster world famous gerken is virtually deserted as are the other skyscrapers here in the city most workers are still working from home at this point at least over the winter or until a covert 19 vaccine is found. experts tell me that social distancing is difficult in skyscrapers plus making offices covert compliant. custom twitter has already announced that their employees will be allowed to work from home indefinitely and british petroleum is mulling over the most dramatic downsizing of property in their

history we are seeing a lot of tenants completely rethinking how they are going to occupy the space so without a shadow we are looking to where rents are going to go up and up and up and it's going to become more and more valuable rents will stabilize or even drop the clock police london city will survive this crisis as it did for now though this iconic part of london really is on life support and local businesses don't know how to make it through the window especially in restaurants and pass we haven't got one booking for christmas not one not one tailored in hook tells me from now on it's survival of the fittest and he desperately hopes that he will be among them. on his growing international pressure for a cease fire in the conflict over the disputed new going to kind of back region in the caucasus france russia and the us are all calling for

a holes in fighting between armenian and azerbaijani forces a flare up in the conflict began at the end of september because more than 250 lives on both sides are you'll hear from representative from media in just a moment to 1st a report explaining what's behind this decades old conflict. the heavy military presence in a corner car a buck is part of everyday life in the enclave. passes death and mourning for people on both sides of the conflict. in recent years the disputed region has seen fighting flair on a regular basis located in the south caucasus a corner car backus internationally recognized as part of azerbaijan but is controlled by ethnic armenian for. says backed by armenia the conflict dates back to the dissolution of the soviet union ever since armenia and azerbaijan have claimed in a car back as their own territory a so-called frozen conflict that remains unresolved for decades later in july

hostilities flared up again 16 people were killed in the fighting the conflict has international ramifications turkey has expressed its support of azerbaijan while russia has provided armenia with military equipment. while world leaders are calling for a deescalation it seems on the ground the warring sides are fanning the flames of their frozen conflict. so let's explore this further with rubin rubin yeah he's a member of the parliament say in the national assembly of armenia head of a standing committee on international relations welcome to the w last week your foreign minister said he was ready to air the country was ready to engage with the oh obama's asian for security and cooperation in europe to establish a ceasefire why has not happened yet hasn't for a very simple reason the group aggressors by john and 13 do

not want cease fire they do they want to continue their war and a war to. create a situation of a cleansing. with a view to what. i have a girl back or be 3 explain in the beginning of the 20th century there are millions of armenians in turkey now they're almost normal news if turkey. abaya the end of the new century there were at least for 1000000 armenians in arthur by john they are there cheering nor by john and the only reason that arming is still to leaving are going to hockey stuff they manage to. wean the warring deny ninety's knowledge use every day and that's on the 27th of september. by john

reid food and. politico support and also military support of turkey by using terrorists transport from north or syria by turkey attacking the people of not growing up and they should or. the thing is with you so you give us the ground as you say to this this supposed that ethnic cleansing but the rest of the world looks on and wonders how far ol you are 2 countries from all out war at the moment it's as it's a conflict that has a brute out of a skirmish that has been bubbling as you say for decades but how far how long before this becomes an actual war. i think you are mistaken we are a scale war not. our. war we.

are to part time. packed off azerbaijan turkey and searched it's a full scale war everything airplanes. tax. 0 homes they are sharing seeking using not one of. their using cluster. their receiving end dates in our earth are the republican army of property and let's talk let's talk about those the deaths because you have both sides of this conflict media and azerbaijan have accused the other of civilian deaths and you've also been condemned by v united states and russia and france both sides for causing civilian deaths so why is that happening. not i already told you there is no reason talking i'm talking about why is our

media killing civilians i mean you know nice normal theory. there's been no signal sure fire from the very very very public partly so why is it that the united states russia and france accuse accuse armenian directly. of killing civilians and the talking civilians outside no no go to kind of back regarding the grown up in azerbaijan he or she started sharing towns and villages in not going to rock including the capital of stefan. and after many times the president or not were not car urged azerbaijani to stop sharing civilian population is not going on our armed forces to. launch. strikes at the military i really needed.

you know. right ok i just say civilians appear to have been killed but for now we want that and we thank you for joining us rubin a rebellion from the national assembly of meanie. but in the world of acid the story of success against all odds the great pages of the major reversals were almost exclusively bad except for one woman in italy in the 1600 percent risk art historians consider the work sure about to see a curiosity but that has not changed with the new exhibition at london's national gallery. she was one of the most dazzling artists of the brock and intrepid pioneer party means yet gentle. talian pain to use to work to raise the voice of women and fight for equality against all odds and this in the 17th century it was

extremely challenging for women in the 17th century i mean they had sort of severe social restrictions but also as an artist i think you really had limitations this is the sort of restrictions on not being able to move about and see the all works on public display meant that she was really exposed to very little compared to say have male counterparts the exhibition shows 30 pictures from a remarkable career the daughter of painter or out salumi gentlest ski to muse you discovered her extraordinary talent early on and let nothing stop her. we know that she was painting independently by the time she was 16 and her 1st known work painted when she was just 17 is absolutely astonishing but i think also she had sheer determination she wanted to do the same work the men were doing that meant painting more than just still lives and portraits artemisia painted scenes

susannah and the elders from 1610 shows a bathing susanna who seems visibly uncomfortable under the last few months of the men artemisia herself then became a victim of sexual violence the exhibition presents the original transcript of the court case the put art museums teacher augustine autopsy on trial for rape for the trial artemisia had to repeat. statements under torture. she agreed to undergo judicial torture it was the only way that she could prove that she was telling the truth and she knows that the way she comply is you know and sort of all this is the judge's questions with incredible 'd poise for a girl of just 1718 and i think you get a lot of optimism from that to me is is trauma and her lust for adventure of visible in her most famous work judith beheading one of. it shows female determination to make men pay for the violence inflicted the decapitation of the oppressor is brutally depicted. she takes the

story of judith's brutal killing of the general holder for these dials up the excitement the passion the horror you're right inside the tents with this thing happening in front of you can almost feel the whole blood spurting on t.v. it's a very shocking picture unflinching images painted by a courageous woman now finally in the spotlight. on not was the day as ever the conversation continues online you can find us on twitter at the w years. world news up the top of the hour but have a good. from

. beirut 2 months after the devastating explosion at the port. it affected companies people including many artists studios and galleries have been destroying their creative work in pad water mains is anger at the lebanese government.

3000. next on t.w. . africa. the symbols of long. grey crown cranes bring good fortune to the environment to. get in 10 yet their numbers are sinking dramatically. now volunteers are getting locals interested in protecting these majestic good luck charms. good for a laugh in 60 mass dollars. for. people looking for in a car which. there are many answers. there

are many reasons. and there are many alternatives to. make up your own mind. the job made for minds. welcome to global st albans. this week we go to lebanon and find out how beirut on scene is coping after the devastating poll lost. in germany a u.s. military airfield has left

a toxic legacy what are locals doing about it. but 1st we learn how the coronavirus pandemic is forcing urbanites to say farewell to their beloved city. the freedom of self-determination and the opportunity to get ahead for centuries cities have promised all of that even today many people are drawn to urban areas for exactly those reasons over half the global population now lives in cities that's more than 4000000000 people and few places have offered greater hopes of success and happiness the new york city now though the pandemic is laying the dreams of many lives there to waste. in a few days' time celine copland will have left new york she came from paris seemingly a lifetime ago saying goodbye to the city is hard to. make if.

face to face i'll be back i just work now i have to go by living with her i'm moving searching here it's like it's. emotional. she came for love then stayed to build a new life in the city. of limitless possibilities setting up a successful company relations company. it's a great town here actually it was. here and she was amazing you could meet people who are from every different background and any day you could. tell downtown need to you know become an artist gallery to a bank to whatever you know the clothes fancy has a shot of culture it was really really great now she's packing her life into bags

and boxes and heading back to paris business has dried up but the bills for granted how fair haven't stopped coming. what's more the city that enticed her seems to have vanished and if you have no rest or had no word with no opening no galileo could make. it go by this see and enjoy the nature you know with i mean like what's why do you have to be fucked in a box of bachmann. and do some calls all the. time square we're meeting trista moldova and i'm steve tewkesbury for 2 decades they performed in some of broadway's biggest productions. the kinky boots and phantom of the opera now they're looking for something new. i'm trying to look into industries that are actually hiring right now and perhaps the medical fields you know amazon maybe yes

of trying to think of anything that's hiring as well. trading the bright lights for hospitals arms logistics. broadway's theaters will be closed to have leased the end of january and possibly longer. some productions have been entirely counseled. new york's world famous entertainment boulevard madame seems like a surreal film sashed. desertion it. a 3rd of bars and restaurants have gone and his business. nobody's coming back so it's very it's very scary to think of a lot of these buildings you know just having nobody in them and you start to go down that rabbit hole of the somebody in the buildings is going to be nobody has noticed there's no fears that are open and you just need to start to get concerned in nature so about it we all have moved to the city which we love so much to pursue our dreams and to pursue on the entertainment industry but you know what if we

can't we can't afford branson there is no industry there's really no no reason to stay here for. 400000 people have left the big apple since march office occupancy has dropped to about 10 percent most large corporations has switched to home office. the real estate market is on the brink of a crash the market for luxury apartments has collapsed by 67 percent. the millions of tourists students and commuters who used to flood into the city every day have vanished leading to massive financial losses new york's tourism industry was worth 70000000000 dollars last year money that's sorely missed especially by those who've chosen just to get irish. business honestly right now is 75 votes and is dark before being was 'd 'd very busy

when they had a seat on the outside like this i mean how to 8000 customers a month before the coronavirus struck now it's a ranch $200.00 you have to fire his for stuff and get his son into health now they only make enough to cover the $7000.00 a month rand next door a clearance sale is under way c.i. robinson is the last employee standing i am getting. a very small amount. comparatively to what i would normally however appealable. not just survive but to live to not be afraid of where my next meal is coming from to make matters worse the contract on her apartment is now expiring she and her partner contre forward to rent a new place in the absolute worst case i would have to leave me. which is the last thing i wanted to do i worked really hard to be here thousands of

businesses ruined dreams shattered hundreds of thousands jobless many come to pay their rent anymore there's a moratorium on a fiction's but it's only temporary leaving fisons terrified of ending up on the streets 200000 eviction suits were filed here even before the coronavirus arrived the city already hans 100000 homeless. new york faces potential catastrophe plenty of fiction bomb draws to a close at the end of the year that's according to alan davidson a legal aid society attorney who represents tenants at the moment we have an eviction moratorium but when that eviction moratorium layoffs. hundreds of thousands from town and sarah risk losing their homes is becoming homeless it will be years in unprecedented disaster for the city the city has withstood many shocks

but celine copland says this one feels completely different there's just too much coming together at once. to start it's going to take a bit longer you have a trifecta effect you have a similar thing the. spanish flu which was a big problem in the great depression of 1929. and. it's like. how did you survive the trust factor. i mean i was sorry like it's just hell. once again in new york faces enormous challenges. and once again it may be time to reinvent itself. thanks to many lebanese the beirut explosion 2 months ago was the ultimate proof that their government and political class were failing and had been doing so for decades. lebanon is made up of various religious groups and sects

the maronites several christian groups the druze sunni and shiite muslims between 19751990 these groups were embroiled in a bloody civil war afterwards the warring parties divided the country up between them. since the mid 1980 s. the shiite militant group hezbollah has also gradually expanded its power in lebanon today it's considered a state within a state but in their struggle to maintain influence lebanon's regional leaders repeatedly block reforms despite angry public protests. there's something very special of a point there's a very special energy everything facet career everything transits through here.

it's the heart of the city for me it's like. the energy of the movement of people working. you mamma i say standing on the roof of her gallery must. the name means harbor going out. into old grudges she made her dream come true space for contemporary art. the explosion of artist for destroying that dream 11 tuesday because. it was closed and human i say wasn't a. few incidents in which she lives her life. so it's physically that much of that set up today and it's going to be repairable but that's not the issue whether it's someone who has a restaurant but whether someone a library or to anyone they want to break it they want to break this idea since dreams that you have they're trying to smash it every time and then you have to. to read it and through it to get them to read a canary wonder how long can one really says you know be resilient at this point

and do and do and we do. since all this for anger in beirut has grown every day in the borders behind the harbor no consciousness landscape. recent years have seen the emergence of the same international appeal many saw it as a hopeful renaissance of the old cosmopolitan and liberal now that hope. the magnificent summer song museum was also badly damaged it was only reopened in 2015 after a long renovation as a place of art for every entry is free. the last visitors had just left the building while the rector say not only dog was still in her office the regular slave she wasn't injured. i think what i've been going through recently i was like i was shot by

a sniper in 78 i was 8 years old i was at the beach since died and i was inside now because kids it's our generation the war generation who did not want to forget who want to talk and breast fed and who through these structures artistic initiatives we have been witnessing the number responsibility of the government and of course a civic society that is more and more like acting as. if it placing the state which we have already been doing for the past 30 years. although the civil war ended in 1000 night it continues to resonate in the press and it dominates the heart of payment for victory. then came assassinations bombings the economic crash in a state where the government is an absolute we don't have a government but i'm on the other trains on the state says writer and he has. everything view of the. political system that was created after the war which i

call. the system of the imminent simple there's no support in the going on but. these fuels lords in these heads of the different shows will sniff it in 6 and the only way for them to govern was to sit at that office will submit will leave. the explosion was an accident but it was supposedly pounds for the truth that the rulers tried to cover ruckus with. the it's not simple you will just run the government since it's not going to be. a good life used to work. in a hopeless situation you know when you are after the spirit we're going to just put it in the spirit that you fear that touches you over beyond despair.

then you can call this hope if you will. it can that you could cause this it every nation to survive. the so something easy a movie with the help is coming from all over the world. but just rebuilding from the old foundation that's not enough at this time to say now are you down. today not. i'm not a kid and he was so today i really need to think about my future. i'm committed to the museum i'm committed but i don't know how long i don't know how long i'm committed to the pen i'm committed to my country depending on how it is going to evolve i mean we are ready we are ready to govern this country am. at the end of the 1980 s.

there were almost 800000 foreign soldiers stationed in both parts of germany mainly british french and u.s. troops in west germany soviet soldiers in east germany following the end of the cold war and german reunification the occupying powers which drew most of their troops. they left behind to trash and contaminated soils and drinking more stuff. coming late only u.s. troops are still stationed in large numbers in germany like in spangdahlem by residents are fighting back. into schneider feels like is david facing an omnipotent god poisoning his environment since $953.00 american fighter jets have been taking off and landing right. by god i think it's just the whistles where moving away from the area is not an option this family's been living here for centuries. the radar that's what i've

heard but out of. those we have a shot regularly.
