at the turkish prime free with a record equalling 7th form in the one world title. and he says he's just getting started. hello, i'm terry martin. good to have you with us. peruse has been plunged into its biggest constitutional crisis in decades following the resignation of its interim president, after just 5 days in office. by the well, marino agreed to step down after his short term was marked by deadly unrest. the prompted half his cabinet to resign. people took to the streets of the capital lima to celebrate marinus resignation. he took over the top job after legislators voted to oust his popular predecessor over corruption allegations. protesters say that move amounted to a parliamentary arena,

made the announcement that he was stepping down in a short televised address. this is the moment when the country has gone through one of its greatest political crises here till i feel that i want to announce to all the country that i present my revokable, the resignation of the cost of the presidency of the republic. i call for the peace and unity of all peruvians. my commitment is to peru mutal. it's only been our correspondent, your hungry mira's was out on the streets covering the story for us in lima. we asked him about reactions there. here's what happened out there resignation and that. 2 was i think

this is, you know, this was a long time celebration. the words, party and celebration did come through there. hard to understand exactly what our course, what it was saying, but i got it again. this is with us here in the studio to put it into context for us. good to see you. javier. so jubilation there in the streets of lima is a really much to celebrate in peru right now. well, not really, terry. what people are celebrating is the simple fact that the population was able to not let what parliament was trying to do happened that easily without any consequences. and it is simply the fact that they impeached the president might have been be scott about who was in power because he was the vice president of another president that had to resign due to corruption allegations. this just to

give us a brief idea of the scope of the problem that is going on in peru. they basically have every single politician, somehow accused of very bad corruption scandals. and this is what led to a power struggle between parliament and the president might be scattered actually not the one that just resigned, but the one before him who wanted to fight that corruption. now mind, well maybe, you know, the president who just resigned was in charge of parliament as a president of the parliament and had to take over after my team. he's got out was impeached by the population was so angry by seeing this power struggle and politicians simply adhering to power for the sake of it. not really because anyone was seriously fighting corruption that they took to the streets and it was effective now and i don't really know had to resign. and that's the situation we're in right now. ok. the peace from process aside, we don't really, you know, it's hard to get through the allegations right now. what happened? but why did merinos appointment?

this was a parliamentary process. you know, there wasn't a coup, wasn't a coup in that, in the traditional sense. why was, what did his resig, why did his appointment cause such outrage? well, it's because i think he's got to was very popular among peruvians because he wanted to fight corruption. and once they accused the parliament accused obese got to as well, of allegedly having been corrupt when he was in regional government in the past. they simply make that impeachment and placed the president of parliament who had been fighting not very often in power as the president. the problem is, once he was there, he named the cabinet of this new government, including many members of congress and of parliament who are themselves being investigated for corruption. so it is, i mean it's sounds ridiculous, but it is really a circus, if you will. and in and in a way, and that's why people are so angry and it's easy to understand. it's very complex.

ok, i've just just one question. any idea who's going to replace who's going to come in next as prime minister? we don't really know right now because there was a parliamentary session where the parliament was going to name a new president of that parliament who would then assume take over the extensions of the executive. but that session had to be postponed and it will continue on monday afternoon, peruvian time. so we will definitely see a lot more going on through the next few days tops the new prime minister for the end of the day who can get us. thank you. so much let's take a look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world today. hurricane lotto has rapidly gained strength and brought torrential rain and flooding to colombia's caribbean coast. the u.s. national hurricane center warns a lot of will, unlike will likely be an extremely dangerous category. 4 storm. when it approaches the central american mainland late on monday,

just one of many european countries currently posting record high infection rates. new infections across germany as a whole are increasing at a slower race. overall numbers haven't started to decline. chancellor angela merkel is due to meet state leaders to assess the situation after 14 days of law. several state premiers have already called for stricter measures stuff man via an ex and if we were to take it a step further, the best thing to do would be to further limit personal contacts in this and often after 2 weeks of lockdown, we must be patient it's the next need to take a few days to assess the results. before we restrain everyone, crazy again. the economy minister also favors a measured response. i know you were shocked on river a yoyo long time will create a situation where we'd constantly be confronting people with a rank of tightening. but he's in restrictions followed by you when you tightening in the end will be impossible to justify. and it would also damage the economy of

the army's lending a hand with prevention measures including contact tracing. germany's defense minister says she's increasing the numbers of soldiers available from 15220000 devils would be expected to help with a future vaccination program. the plans are tight and when we're planning on having 26 vaccination centers, most of the mobo said that we can also vaccinate people living in regions with a large land mass, but a small population in france. a can many things are on the table in the ongoing fight against the virus, except for a rapid easing off restrictions to northern ethiopia, where fighting threatens to tip the country into civil war and unleash a humanitarian crisis across the region. the conflict comes down to a power struggle between prime minister and the leaders of the rebellious to grow

by region. the united nations refugee agency says tens of thousands have already fled the fighting with civilians crossing the border into suit that comes as leader admitted launching rockets into neighboring eritrea. at the same time, ethiopia's human rights commission says, gunmen attacked a passenger bus in the west of the country on sunday, killing more than 30 civilians. let's go now to ethiopia's capital of this of a bug and talk to journalists, samuel, guess what shoes. if europe is president, says he's confident that his forces can restore order in to gripe province. what's, what's he up against militarily? oh, but if you're going to prime minister to be exact he is the determination is there is a board says that he has already quote the government ego than the one to the new administration

. and i don't, he is one of them was a source in the region. so the mission is there, but hopefully it is just too soon done with coming to and as you mentioned, the us has already said above 85000. saddam. but that's an official number. there are thousands of them so it's just not me. so if i understand you correctly, we're looking at a very formidable military force into gripe province. why would the rebels, they would launch an attack on their northern neighbors in eritrea, when their dispute is primarily with prime minister and the central government in ethiopia? you know, this was

a government for the police several years with their t. . i had a war, it was the t.p.n. of government that you know, that conflicts with the fear so that it's here in government under the president are. and he's your luis wanted to, you know, people that he felt what the invasion of this nation. so when i became 2000, he went, he tried to bring peace between ethiopian, interfere, that he was never was with the ford nation that was against the interests of the left. and that's how the conflict began. some of just very briefly, what about the, the humanitarian implications of this for the region? you mentioned those refugees. how serious is it?

i mean, if you 5000 people, a number of 25000 of this is done. there are the 4, you know, the people that moved through this is going to tell us all to people. young people have been left behind the angels been pushed out of the great region looted by the tepee and of soldiers of the police. so it's just there, it's not just with the, if you look at the conflict, it's look just with but the people, if sudan comes to the asians, samuel, thank you very much. that was journalist samuel get your truth in it. in sports and in formula one british driver lewis hamilton made history at the turkish, graeme his win. there means he has equalled me. go schumacher all time, record of 7 world titles, but it wasn't easy. it is bull he had to come from behind and he had to do it in the way to lewis hamilton started 6th on the grid. it is tim ball park. the
