yes i'm take a would remain open except in the worst hit areas restaurants and bars would have to shut and large events would be banned so far most bars and restaurants have to close only between 11 pm and 6 am for many berliners new measures are necessary even if they mean fewer freedoms but others are more skeptical we all have to give ourselves a push now and see that it goes in the right direction. the numbers are always going up so you have to do your part to make them go down again to govern great profit businesses and hope that we will be spared but unfortunately we can't rule the salt completely although i'm not sure if it will really help to contain the pandemic and we didn't do before most of people i assume that there will be new measures there's nothing you can do about it and we have to get the infection under control in this new presuming that. new restrictions are expected on wednesday after chancellor merkel meets with germany's 16 regional leaders. all right let's
4:04 pm
get you more now on these developments is standing by new not 1st of all talk to us about this meeting that is about to get away or is already underway what can we expect from that. well it's going to take place tomorrow angle america is going to try and press the country 16 state premiers to agree on new restrictions on what's been dubbed a lock down lights and that strategy would basically work with 2 tools one would be to continue to have strict lock downs in districts where of the infection rates are skyrocketing currently in germany we have 2 districts in the varia that are experiencing that life is standing still that because of high infection rates and too nationwide some new restrictions will be implemented in concrete terms pubs and restaurants will close again much like in the spring events will be cancelled and any time some shops will be limited the government has so far always said that they're going to try and avoid to close schools and kindergartens at all cost but of course that remains to be seen they're already closed in those $2.00 districts
4:05 pm
in bavaria and of course pub and restaurant owners are already warning that many of them won't survive in the long term if they have to close now and they say that their hygiene concept working they should be punished is going to be a very tough meeting that's also what the bavarian state has that are in a very tough meeting if germany were to implement a 2nd lockdown and given the protests that we've seen unfold here as well what people except one comply with it. well of course there's a certain sense of weariness in the general population possibly also because germany is still coping fairly well compared to some of its neighboring countries and the health care system is not overwhelmed yet but that might change anytime soon and yes there have been some protests including last weekend here in berlin where there were some 2000 people from all over the country that came to the island to protest there is a small movement against the corona measures but overall people are very much in
4:06 pm
favor of the government's measures and a recent poll actually shows that 2 thirds of germans are expecting new restrictions to be put in place soon and another poll shows that 51 percent of those asked find that the current measures are appropriate and only 15 percent think that those measures are exaggerated so there's overall there is big support for the government's strategy. porty thank you. and italy has been hit hard by the 2nd wave infections are exploding in parts of the country protests are up to date against a new round of government restrictions aimed at containing the spread of covert 900 clashes broke out in milan to ren and several other major cities italian authorities ordered bars restaurants to close their doors at 6 pm and theaters cinemas and gyms shuttered for a month from minnesota separate countries promising new financial aid to ease tensions. it began as an angry protest
4:07 pm
they chanted for freedom in turin. but it quickly descended into a violent game of cat and mouse local media reports the group was made up of hardcore football fans nor does all trusts riot police fired tear gas and water cannon to send them home. designer shops were targeted to. police clashed with protesters tear gas and pyrotechnics and plentiful supply to several arrests were made as the carbon yairi try to restore order to the city's although wise quiet street the unrest was taken knighted by new rules forcing the country's hospitality industry to close its doors at 6 pm how more bullshit italy's late night dining culture has restaurant owners locked up many feared this would be the beginning of the end. because one chip your is pretty evil tourists have
4:08 pm
disappeared and lunch time is empty as well with 75 percent of the employees walking from home. in fact we're done with this job i mean i think we're going to close in a week you know it's all pretty good to come out i would also argue that it will. then rule industry workers poor discipline is that we end protest. because that is that if you don't do what you're seeing here is just a part of our supplies that we've had to throw away and sacrifice we've already paid for it instead of setting it to our customers our friends were forced to through on the growing does we've already done in the past. the peaceful gathering in sharp contrast to seems elsewhere but as italy tightens restrictions the sense of anxiety here every bit as strong. tempers flaring there in italy let's get you more now some of your book already is a journalist in milan and joins us right now good day sylvia what more can you tell
4:09 pm
us about the demonstrations that unfolded in milan and across the country. well we have to remember that these demonstrations started a few days ago especially in naples were the government of the region of naples combine. into a couple of ice put very strict rules in place for the region and people went to the streets to demonstrate against that from their. demonstrations that spread all around the country and right now we have like many of us russian in the north part as well like last night we could hear. seasoned police cars going on and on for the for the whole night we know that many people are on the street but we have to remember that there are some peaceful demonstration of people that are for instance restaurants on our own are that are peacefully demonstrating in the street and we also have to violence group that we still have to identify at the moment sylvia tell us a little bit more about the community there are most affected by these new restrictions
4:10 pm
do they feel that they are being unfairly targeted by these restrictions that are put in place by the italian government. they do we have 2 main groups mon is the group of the restaurants owner of the bars are the club the owners who have been trying to keep up with the measures during the last because last few months or so they tried to dispense shaped tables for instance or they had. a limited number of people that would get into the restaurant and they feel like they're being mistreated at the moment and also we have that group of people like. movies theater as owners or t.f. there is owners or actors and everyone who's involved in entertainment everything is being closed down right now so they feel like they've been the culture is that the cultural aspect is not being taken care of the moment by the government and livelihoods of course once again sylvia how difficult will it be soon forced these
4:11 pm
restrictions and make people comply. well i think that of course we are concentrating on the process right now but there are many many people who actually still comply already comply with and we did well we haven't all of us i mean we're going to have a car if you at 11 pm and we know that we cannot go to restaurants and bars after 86 pm so i think the italian people are used to that and i understand why. measures are being put in place at the moment it's just that people are angry because we knew that this was going to come we need. a new wave was going to come and we have seen from other countries around us like bronze and spain and the u.k. that this was happening so the feeling of. preparedness of our government is the feeling that make people mad mostly so if you're because of the reporting from

4:20 pm
is and i would say normally this would give a big boost to get conservatives eyelets to vote because there is still a possibility that donald trump if he gets reelected can add another supreme court justices in his 2nd term because justice breyer is also 82 years old however we also experienced that pandemic now really overshadows these last days before election day because we have to keep in mind there are already 225000 americans who have died of coburg 19 and more and more voters have to mourn the death of family members and this becomes the most important topic for many right now now in the report that we just aired or we heard a justice barrett say she will do her job independently of both political branches and her own preferences is it possible that now that she's reached such
