coronavirus cases i'm ballin has been particularly hard hit now all 12 districts here are considered hot spots pressure is growing here in germany politicians to introduce new stricter measures against the coronavirus especially as numbers continue to grow this is something that is being debated on a daily basis here in germany both on the streets but also in the german press the latest topic to be discussed is a possibility of introducing a so-called lockdown lite under this proposal which is reportedly favored by chancellor merkel schools and daycare 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 there would be a profit businesses and hope that we will be spared but unfortunately we can't prove assault completely although i'm not sure if it will really help to contain the country america and then people for both the 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 the new restrictions are expected on wednesday after chancellor merkel meets with germany's 16 regional leaders. news has seen a copy of angela merkel's working paper for that conference with the 16 states leaders germany and here's more of what we think is going to propose schools and daycare facilities are to remain open and that's a major difference to the 1st lockdown germans will be told to limit contacts to an absolute minimum outside gatherings. would be limited to a maximum of 2 households

a complete shutdown of the entertainment sector bars restaurants cinemas all required to close public and private entertainment events will be banned as will sports gatherings and trade says no tourism essential travel only hotels will only be open for business travel. if state premiers agree the new measures could take effect starting on november the 4. of them on what the could lie ahead we have to w.'s political correspondent nina. so we have these outlined proposals from chancellor merkel do we know more about how they will work and if there will be national or regional maybe only for local hotspots. well local hot spots will continue to see local lockdowns and we've got the situation in 2 districts in bavaria at the moment that are under lockdown because of heine fixed rates there and schools and kindergartens are closed but what i'm going back at

once for the rest of the country is what she's calling a circuit breaker a lockdown that would last for a month to make sure that people can celebrate christmas under some form or other together we need to bring the numbers down now is what michael says and also the aim is to prevent the health care system from collapsing it is still coping ok but new infections are rising much faster here than expected so mechelle ones nationwide restrictions and she's not alone the state premiers of the varian lower saxony agree with her but of course the country 16 states have the final say on which restrictions to impose ultimately and there's already some resistance from some state premiers to plan like from the eastern state of the range of boat or he says that he's not essentially working for the chancery but for himself and his population are we going this criticism that's also been criticism that parliament is not sufficiently involved does the chance have the authority to order

a national lockdown without the bomb to start. well here under our laws the 16 individual states do have the final say in health matters and uncle americal can coordinate and she can give recommendations and of course that rule goes back to our country's history to avoid giving the government in berlin too much power that could potentially be abused and during the 1st wave in the spring the german parliament did give the government certain exceptional competencies so that the government would be able to act faster than it normally does in this pandemic and now there are people not just from the opposition parties who are demanding that the national and the regional parliaments take some of that power back and get more of a say and their argument is of course that those measures are so far reaching that they need to have a say because those measures are hard to sell in areas that are currently not so affected by high infection rates and that is what's making these talks so difficult

when the economy has been hit hard by the 1st law is there any way to gauge how section even a limited lockdown will affect the economy everybody is expecting measures to affect the economy of course and there's a big concern that the economy will slump also because of germany's role as europe's economic powerhouse it would potentially affect other countries and not just germany if the economy were to slump here and so medicals new concept does include an emergency aid package that would help businesses that are affected by those new measures of that would be affected and there is a lot of criticism that's coming from industries that would be affected rest restaurant and pub owners are saying that one 3rd of them would potentially have to close down for good if they're targeted with strict restrictions down also they're saying that those measures are unfair because they're hiding concepts are working and scientists are even agreeing with them that people do not tend to catch the virus while out in a pub they tend to catch it while they're at home with

spilled on both sides a speedballs vented their anger at the death of walter wallace jr. some took the opportunity to indulge in looting earning a stern rebuke from wall to wall a senior. i don't condone no foul chain of city to know. all this chaos for it i want to thank you david but every day i'm up there in my side the stuff the foul and chaos as security forces and protesters faced off mr wallace refused to blame the police so great but called for justice for his son's death i mean we got good come out we get big that's the system move it in the system i'm not all oh so mighty had the king of all were. heritable with a deep well to well a student whose mother was more forthright. yeah that was found in the pretty funny stuff you might. see down lifetime let me know anything.

yet about my work that me oh well it's reportedly had a lengthy criminal record including convictions for assault and robbery and at the time of his death was awaiting trial for allegedly threatening to shoot a woman police said that when he was fatally shot he was wielding a knife that he refused to drop but some protesters were adamant that racism and a lack of training on the part of the police led unnecessarily to wallace's death you cannot restrain a 3 how can i tell a younger man will don't do that don't do that don't do that we're not here to see you graham pay him bail bill it was the color thing that i see is no longer that it's like that in everybody everybody isn't going to buy because they could have been anybody trying to get into different neighborhoods where it's less common for me that makes your situation in hand not a lot different pennsylvania governor tom wilson owns the deployment of several 100

national guard troops to philadelphia as the city braces for further unrest. and more on this we're now joined by joseph hutchinson he's a u.s. civil rights lawyer counted based here and sending in troops sounds very extreme is that necessary and is it even legal. so necessary i don't think so but legal definitely so typically when we speak gov to have the executive authority and they're calling in the national guard it's usually more for kind of like natural disasters so whenever you have hurricanes for example then the national guard might be called in to help with things like that what the governor wolf is doing and this is showing that the defense of property is more important than the defense of life so i think it's out of concern that there would be looting or violent protests that he's pretty actively called in the national guard even

though it doesn't really seem to be much something i'm urgency that would typically warrant that sort of how do you gauge this is this likely to cause protests like we saw off of the killing of children floyd. i think the problem that we're noticing in the states is that you know we heard in the segment that this man was doing your arms there are reports of his prior criminal record and unfortunately what we what we call perfectibility all take in the united states for black victims of crime to be treated with empathy and respect they typically have to be you know the most innocent person you could ever imagine so i think the difference here with sort boy feeling is that yes he was holding a knife but i think what activists are still pointing out is you know just because he was holding a knife does not mean he should have been shot. certainly should have been shot fatally so i think. for this to have the same kind of impact and i think that's why

people are taking the streets in philadelphia because they see what's happening but unfortunately there is that hurdle to get over that people might not. be able to see him with the same humanity. you mention it. he was he was fatally shot and he was shot multiple times but just willing a knife that's what i call excessive force in that does the police need to be told and especially. and is this actually happening. i think the problem so limited in there are the police are under local control are not under federal oversight you have some communities now realizing that the police are out of control that the higher relationship between the police and the people need to be by this is absolutely. the court from a policeman perspective there are

a lot of my life was in danger i was allowed to do anything to protect myself there's a long list of demands that need to take effect but one thing i want to point out we've seen video of this murder we've seen them shoot him but the individual will almost certainly never be held accountable and even if there is some financial settlement with the family that's going to come out of taxpayer money. joseph hutchinson u.s. civil rights lawyer. thank you very much thank you to tanzania on the voting is underway in the country's presidential and parliamentary elections the face off for the presidency is between an opposition leader so vive 16 assassins bullets and an incumbent who says prayer can prevent covert 90 more than 29000000 people are registered to vote rights groups authorities have cracked down on critical voices by closing down media outlets
