9:30 pm
oh, the little sleep slopes. no love for them which doesn't. one gives me a hug. ugh, canceling a good sleep. coming on strong leader for almost a month, a partial lockdown has been in effect for all of germany. the restrictions they've helped to slow down the rate of new corona virus infections, but not enough. on tuesday, the number of covered 1000 deaths in one day hit a record high here in germany, and that may be enough to justify a tougher lock down. for weeks the government justified the restrictions this way. we're doing it to save christmas. tonight, the government's message may be,
9:31 pm
we're doing this to save your lives. i'm bored golf in berlin. this is the day it would have been the rules out. you cannot a nice time with the family. i have the one between about this it persists. no rushing around, no wasting money, nobody drunk all over the place. its great stuff will not follow you into play with it to stay healthy, then get it. oh so many people have died as a result of it. they can stay shots into that includes counting and drinking 2 or 3 mulled wine to christmas market. and that's when the virus can really get busy to attend. also coming up the pandemic forced many people to stay at home for weeks or months
9:32 pm
at a time. and that has had violent consequences for women and girls. is the world doing enough to protect them? it's not enough to punish only violence to end than death. you know, we have to focus on psychological aggression on these because if we are only going to react when women are 10 and it's too late to our viewers on p.b.s. in the united states and to all of you around the world. welcome. we begin the day with more pandemic deaths and more pandemic restrictions here in germany. on november 2nd, a nationwide partial lockdown went into effect here at the time the government said closing bars, restaurants and gyms was necessary to stop the exponential growth. in new coronavirus cases breaks the chain of inspections and flatten the curve. and that has happened somewhat. the virus is not spreading exponentially anymore, however,
9:33 pm
the virus is killing at unprecedented levels. tuesday's record daily death toll has triggered a warm here in germany. why is this happening now? 3 weeks into a lockdown will a tougher lock down? reduce the mortality rate. there's going to be naturally some the position, it's national, it's going to happen, but it is what it is. you know it's, there's no policy that's ever going to be 100 percent approved. i think people, i think, i mean, i don't understand why restriction would be nice for christmas. perhaps one should stick to them, but i also see what happens with people when they don't know me unhappy. so i can't say much about it, but i just talk about it because i also see how it is in hospitals. that's where i work. oh and yes, it's sad not to celebrate christmas as usual, but how else the measures taken are important and necessary types. so is c
9:34 pm
r e for more? now i want to bring in dr. max a 1000000. he's an epidemiologist working on the covert, 19 team it. germany's sure it's a hospital doctor. it's good to have you on the show. on tuesday, germany recorded its highest daily death toll since the pandemic began. do we know why the virus is claiming more lives now? yeah, i fear it is as easy as it is. we're seeing more cases. so we have to see more deaths . also believe we also see more cases in the most vulnerable groups. so we see more people dying now, and we have to consider that these people are dying now. they got infected 4 weeks ago or more. so possibly when we have to face increasing numbers, also in the coming weeks, what needs to happen to prevent the mortality rate from increasing? i think the same what we did over the past months,
9:35 pm
what we should do better reduce transmission, increase health and education, increase testing capacities and protect the most vulnerable groups of the population. tomorrow is thanksgiving in the united states. people are traveling despite the centers for disease control, advise ing everyone to stay home, and there is fear that this holiday could become a super spreader event. in the u.s. here in germany, the coronavirus restrictions they could be eased during christmas. what is the advice from public health experts such as yourself, could christmas create a new wave of infections here in germany kong, january? i think we have to take it serious that this is possibly the date of the year when young people to meet their grandparents. so many of the more vulnerable age groups and cells have to consider
9:36 pm
that test. seeing less person on christmas try to take a karen time period before the christmas day and least a week. and we should have better access to rep attests directly before the days to christmas days. let me ask you the german chancellor. she has said that stopping the exponential growth of coronavirus cases, the spread has only been partially successful. when you take that and you add to the fact that we know that a vaccine is on the way, are you worried that in the new year we're going to see cases go up again because people are going to let down their guard you know, we should consider the vaccine as a christmas gift,
9:37 pm
but we would all have it ready for christmas and also not very early in there. in the new year, we need millions of billions of people to be vaccinated over the next year. and therefore, there's no way out of the stink out for reducing context and transmission. dr. 1000000 joining us tonight from the shell. read today here in germany, doc together, we appreciate your time, your insights tonight. thank you. thank you. the transition to a joe biden presidency in the u.s. is exhilarating. on wednesday, the president elect was notified that beginning next monday he will receive the daily security briefing prepared exclusively for the president. president trump continues to reject the results of the election. the election that he lost on the
9:38 pm
international stage, china has now joined other leaders in congratulating biden on his win. she's in ping's message to biden included a wish for both nations to establish a win win cooperation. and this week biden announced his picks to fill the top foreign policy and national security jobs. in his administration,, they included the veteran diplomat, tony blinken, nominated to become u.s., secretary of state. now, we have to proceed with equal measures of humility and confidence humility. because as the president elect said, we can't solve all the world's problems alone. we need to be working with other countries. we need their cooperation. we need their partnership. but also confidence. because america, at its best, still has a greater ability than any other country on earth to bring others together to meet
9:39 pm
the challenges of our time. or blink ins, words should be music to the heirs of european leaders and diplomats for the past 4 years. president trump attacked an alienated america's allies. it helped germany and france, find common ground on the topic of defense, for example, but well, that all be forgotten. now that, and i'm quoting the president elect, now that america is back well to discuss the impact of the new old us foreign policy here in europe. i'm joined tonight by yana to be anyone with the european council of foreign relations. it's good to have you on the program. we know there is delight in berlin and paris with biden's foreign policy plans. how much dread is there? well, i think looking forward to engage with the new at midspan. and it's also confident to find a compromise with paris to come up with some things like european offer for the
9:40 pm
americans. because i think there is broad consensus that we cannot just wait and sit and can fight about the concept of strategic autonomy. but not really come up with concrete ideas, how to improve the relationship and what the europeans can bring to the table. we know that donald trump be alienated america's european allies, and at the same time he drove them towards each other. like never before, did me. yes, in the one hand he did at the other, i think that rift in the transatlantic relationship is always also a rift within europe. just look at the reactions and sensitivities of europe to the trump presidency and that was brought through full of holes in the baltic states and several times that they felt much more secure than under obama, that they didn't see the problem that lots. and i think that the french president,
9:41 pm
very often kind of pretends that he speaks on behalf of europe, but never with europe. so i think that yes, we have seen some progress. but also i think the europeans are really alliance on kind of the idea of strategic autonomy are some friends. i want you to take a listen to what germany's defense minister said this week. the incoming us administration off is a big opportunity for something at the same time. we have to face up to the fact that our capabilities here, we can hear it still don't match up to our own ambitions. at the same book on the cell phones do we fix not building up our own abilities. the more we will be a serious partner for the united states, and they think on this inside, i'm not strict godless, if you use president even off to joe biden, that it's the president and his well. now if i were a betting man,
9:42 pm
i would bet that the defense minister who we just saw there, i would bet that her position will soften and change significantly. moves. where would you put your money? i would put german banks are actually spinning that now. i mean, would you agree with me that the german defense minister's position is going to soften and change significantly now that we have a different u.s. president? well, i think that a weapon relationship with the pentagon has been not so bad, even under the trump presidency. and i think that the java defense minister, i think it can craft combo as a, dyed in the wool and transplant assists, and really wants to make the relationship work. she emphasizes all the time that there is no european security without the u.s. commitment. and she thinks that we need to step up significantly in order to keep the americans on board. and i agree with her. and i think she has been heard from
9:43 pm
emphasizing this and also pushing the german banks. and that's what spending more and also emphasizing the need that yeah, that we cannot just continue to treat right as we did in the past. yeah. when it comes to defense, france has its own nuclear arsenal. and you can imagine france surviving without the u.s. security umbrella. germany on the other hand, has no nuclear weapons. can you imagine germany in a nato without the u.s. security guarantee? i think there, if you touch those free europe, i think the u.s. presence in her own eyes, infector and it takes the actually that's an internal or even if the burdens of the past. so i think that the american presence not only to the charity, but also politically contribution significantly to our security to charity. we
9:44 pm
cannot replace the united states as a sector he doesn't have nukes and has no plans to quiet them. so for us, nato and the e.u. remain the backgrounds of our foreign policy, and nato especially remains the backbone of european security for gemini yana. been with the european council on foreign relations. mr. leader, and we appreciate your time in your insights tonight. thank you. the united nations is calling it the shadow pandemic as the number of coronavirus infections increased. so did the violence against women and girls. but in the south american country, peru, the disturbing plights of women and girls was a fact long before the pandemic. and yet just one percent of the abuse cases reported there last year led to a conviction. women say the country's justice system is failing.
9:45 pm
when mikaela, performer and teacher was 20 years old, she was raped by a theatre instructor using the excuse of helping her to explore art. he made her remove her clothing and then assaulted her. he did the same with 16 other students. for 3 years, the group has been fighting to have the man prosecuted. despite the allegations, the peruvian justice system concluded there was not enough evidence get a letter saying that your case of sexual abuse was closed due to lack of evidence. that makes you listen again. in this and believe what you were told the 1st time, you made the accusation that you're lying, that you're doing it to get attention and that your life is not worth it. if in peru, gender violence affects all social classes. equally. viruses experience inspired
9:46 pm
these 2 books. she's a television presenter and also a victim of gender violence. her attacker was her former partner, her case is still waiting to be resolved. this. impunity is like a cancer that eats he walk and kills you. because it doesn't allow things to change, it's not enough to punish only violence the ends in death. we have to focus on that slap that we have to focus on psychological aggression. because if we are only going to react when women are dead, it's too late. in peru, 66 percent of women have reported being victims of violence are not a contraire us is pushing the parliament to address the issue today, a member of congress. she was brutally attacked by her ex-boyfriend. now she
9:47 pm
promotes an agenda to end the violence inflicted by the state itself. institutional violence when a situational violence is violence perpetrated by state agencies through the justice system. for example, police officers, prosecutors judges, and medical examiners. i'm just doesn't look, there are many cases of people who report file and that at the time of reporting, they are a victim mind, stop blaming and then subject it to more violence. we're seeing there have been cases in which the police have accused a victim and this victim has ended up being victimized again. and again. i mean, the payment maybe of the $60000.00 accusations of abuse against women reported in peru this year. less than one percent lead to convictions in this palace of justice instead of offering impartiality in laos,
9:48 pm
impunity are going to cross over to new york city. i'm joined by a need about see issues, the deputy executive director of the united nations body. you and women. it's good to have you on the program. we just saw this report from peru where 2 thirds of women say they've been subject to violence held as peruke compare with the rest of the world. look, the rest of the world is not doing that way either. when you look at the data on violence against women, we know that at least 35 percent of women globally have been subjected at some point to the other to violence. and we know that on average, about 150 women die every day from violence. so peru is not alone in having staggeringly large numbers and large incidents of violence against women. do we know where our women most widely need to be confronted with been subjected to
9:49 pm
violence? unfortunately, it's the place where you might think they would be safest, which is at home. domestic violence is the largest part of violence against women, but of course, women can be attacked on the streets, you know, at work and on the internet. so violence has many ways of making itself felt. and in this pandemic, i know we've been shocked numerous times reporting on the fact that these lockdowns, which of the worst families to stay at home, have exacerbated the problem of violence against women. i mean, what's your read in this of me? did you expect the pandemic to be violent for women and girls? well look, those of us who are in the business of dealing with violence against women and on the issues of gender equality, have known for a long time that there was this shadow pandemic. and in fact, it's
9:50 pm
a public health crisis that just isn't treated as one. and so we knew that there were very large numbers of women who were subject to violence even before the pandemic, or what the bendemeer did was it created the perfect conditions for abuse. because women were at home were forced to stay at home for medical reasons and their proper traders were at home. so we saw this exists, tarnishing spike in cases. but i guess the silver lining is that it led to a lot of people actually being able to speak about it, including heads of state and government who came out and talked about this almost for the 1st time as a major public policy issue. but has this as the pandemic has it changed the way you go about battling violence against women and girls? i think what it's done is it has created a sense of urgency. the secretary general of the u.n.
9:51 pm
issued a call asking for a cease fire at home and asking for an end to violence against women. i'm happy to say 146 countries actually answered the astri's call. we had un women put out policy briefs and documentation showing just how widespread the abuse is. and that has created some momentum for action. of course, you know all of those though of the rebels going to hit the road. when we see whether countries actually implement some of the things they talk about, you know, i mean, you say 146 countries answered the call, but very have to be more than that, right? would you describe the global efforts at the moment as, as satisfactory our, you know, i think more needs to be done. i think we need to see more financing go to words this issue. governments need to follow through and not just make lofty statements
9:52 pm
and global public arena as they need to make sure that budget resources that allocated to words. those that are essential services for survivors are kept alive and are funded as essential services. businesses need to step are, this is the whole of society effort. it can't just be done by governments, but they do have a disproportionately important role to play. anita, see you're with the women here. we appreciate your time tonight and since you are, in the u.s. let me take this opportunity to wish you a happy and healthy thanksgiving tomorrow. thank you. thank you so much. thank you so much and the same to you. thank you. he is considered one of the greatest soccer players ever to have graced the pitch, and he is with us no more. he died on wednesday of an apparent heart attack. he was

10:01 pm
over the christmas holiday. it's good to have you with us. he is considered one of the greatest football players ever to have graced the pitch and he is with us no more. diego maradona died on wednesday of an apparent heart attack. he was 62, was revered around the world, his defining moment when he kept in argentina to world cup victory against west germany in 1986. had been in poor health, but his death has stunned football fans around the globe. his doctor at his side. this is the last public photo of diego, armando donna, after a successful brain operation. early november. he'd been visibly ill for some time.
10:02 pm
he was the coach for a top argentinian team, but the 60 year old was having trouble staying on his feet. marathon i grew up in a pole suburb. born as it is. his rise to stardom was meaty, are his goals spectacular? the striker with the number 10 shirt had his career highlight at the 986 world cup in mexico. he travelled his way through confused and helpless defensive lines. his hand assisted goal against england will go down in history. marathoner later in the stevie asli called it the hand of god. he became a national hero in argentina. but after the great rise came the fall, he struggled with drug and alcohol addiction for years. after his brain surgery, he was going through detox, but marathoner suffered a heart attack. the magical and talented marathoner will now receive a state funeral fitting for one of the greatest footballers,
10:03 pm
if not the greatest of all time. i thank you. and here are some of the 1st reactions from fans in argentina. you know, it will get if i can't believe it. it's incredible that you think that all the bad things can happen. but then you see that they can't. it turns out we're all mortals, you know, it's that i'm john casting it. but i feel a bit like it's a bad dream in my film that it's a joke. i want to believe that it's a joke. you know good if they're going to be good. the 1st thing, my 12 year old son said to me as a mom marriage donna died. i couldn't believe it. i didn't especially love him, but i didn't feel that it didn't matter to me. made me how does that mean? totally shocked. and to be frank, that's why this doesn't want to come out. i think it was a great guy who didn't have very good relations around him. who was taken advantage of a lot of them, which are going to talk about this larger than life mythical figure. that was diego
10:04 pm
maradona. and to do that, i'm torn you from because we sports tom in a way, tom's how would you describe him? the sublime footballer who had an illustrious career. yeah, absolutely. i mean very arguably, the best player ever to have played the most popular game in the world is a titanic figure in the world of football. and of course, in the world of sport, i mean he won trophies on many different continents. he won, probably the biggest sporting competition exists in the world, the football world cup, in 1964, a country argentina, which is crazy about football as we've been hearing yet. there are many players that will achieve more, i think, in the game of football than diego maradona just in terms of numbers of trophies. but very, very few who will ever be remembered in the same way that he will be because he's just regarded by very many people as the most gifted player ever to affect the guy he was challenged, it was also tore minutes and he knows that he's battling his personal demons,
10:05 pm
especially later in life, was a yes. and it was in a pause where, you know, marathon i developed for alcohol and cocaine abuse that dog him for hours career. that led to him being banned from playing the game by fifo on several occasions. you know, on the developed associations with the camorra of the local mafia in naples during his time there. but, you know, we're talking about a figure who embodies of an astronomical rise from obscurity and poverty, by virtue of his talent for playing the game for which so many people are so passionate. and then i think suffered naturally due to the kind of immense limelight that is attached to the adoration and the acclaim that he received in public life. i think that's also what series year was trying to get into that. the extremes in his life were hard for most of his to imagine talk to us about what is
10:06 pm
known as the donna meant. he had a magic america and i think it's, you know, for football fans who see maradona play even for those who've had to see maradona play just in terms of videos in the old you tube clips. it's something that, you know, i think everybody can conjure images of maradona flicking the ball around of maradona, keeping the blue so closely his feet as he dodges tackles and flies down the wing of maradona producing finishes that cheeky and so unbelievable that nobody else would have ever come to the idea of trying some of the things that maradona made look so effortless. yeah, and as i say, sublime talent, dizzy does he deserve the title, the greatest footballer of all time? that's kind of an open question and the several other contenders? madonna was voted the 1st player of the century alongside brazilian legend pele. whether or not he's the greatest of all time. that's an open question and people will have their own opinions on that. but if you ask anybody who the graceful bit of all time is his would definitely be one of the very 1st names that come to mind
10:07 pm
. and that's a legacy that very, very few would ever claim diego maradona did at the age of 60. tom, as always, thank you. thank you. german chancellor angela merkel has announced that restrictions designed to battle be corona virus will be tightened and extended into the new year. the restrictions already in place since early november will be temporarily eased over christmas. although the number of new coronavirus cases in germany is no longer increasing, exponentially the number of daily deaths from code 19 is now at a record high. for more now, let's bring in the political editor mikhail, a good nurse. she has been following today's developments. forest michela. what more do you know? has a lot of foreign 10 carona deaths were a quarter of the past 24 hours. we've now heard from the market what the plan is.
10:08 pm
it seems a long term plan over christmas and beyond, and for now she said 1st of all said thanks the german public. but also said that it's too early to ease this lockdown light as it became known here and many. and in fact, more measures are being stopped on top of that, there's more mosque requirements also outside of salt. so more areas where people have to wear masks here and i live in the high street. that's what you already have to do. also, there will be an exception over christmas, and that's what everybody has really been waiting for. a while. people allowed to meet now is up to 5, from 2 different households. there will be a christmas, except that it can be up to 10 people. the number of households is not restricted and restricted, and children under 14 don't count. so that means christmas is possible also with a big family. but at the same time, there's an appeal for every single individual to make sure they only meet as many people as absolutely necessary by them. i'm just wondering,
10:09 pm
with these new restrictions, what happens if come christmas, these new restrictions have not helped. the curve more will, will these restrictions still be eased for christmas? i very much doubt that having list this into the german chancellor just now and quite clearly those more than 7 hours that it took to reach this agreement. although it was very thoughtfully prepared, very well communicated across the 16 states in between the chancery. that is kind of the bottom line here. what we saw it give a bit of ground though, there's a new red line here and any where is currently there is a law and when it's a 50 people being infected within the space of 7 days, for every 100000 citizens, that number has been raised to 200 for like a full lockdown full on measures and that can already be seen as a compromise. but the german chancellor herself sounds in
10:10 pm
a mood where she pretty much refuses to take responsibility, that everything will be fine. she's not promising anything. and she seems to term and to keep this under control to not once again let that rise in numbers get towards the exponential phase where very fast the german health system could be overwhelmed. let's take a listen to what the german chancellor said about an hour ago. about these new restrictions to listen in and we need to make another extra effort we face another hard target of our patients, solidarity and discipline. there are many signs the 2021 will bring relief and this hopeful fought especially regarding the vaccine may be something that helps us to overcome the pandemic and to sustain our patience and solidarity. until then that would be doubly teet. you must know oftentimes if not to have been as we will
10:11 pm
extend until december 20th, the measures that we decided on october 28th. and we assume that the restrictions will likely be necessary until early january. so unless we see an unexpected decrease in infection rates under 50 cases per 100000 people in 7 days, we know about the political moment that doesn't look very likely, paula not thought and when it is even talking about this data. there was the german chancellor there on the american soul. 'd announcing that the country's partial lockdown will be tightened and extended into the new year with easing over the christmas holidays. ethiopia's prime minister has asked the international community not to interfere in the conflict in his country's too great region. the central government gave the region's leaders an ultimatum. surrender by tonight or face an
10:12 pm
assault on their capital city. hundreds have already been killed in the government offensive. many more have been forced to flee to refugee camps. this baby boy is just 2 weeks old. the newborn doesn't even have a name yet, but he's already been through much more than he should have. and i gave birth in the hope that is it with no one to help me. his mother says, she says people brought her and the baby to a refugee camp and that she's been waiting for help for 2 weeks. many people here have similar stories and there are new arrivals every day. more than 40000, people have fled the fighting in the ethiopian region of teague right across the border into sudan. people have come in all sorts of conditions with absolutely nothink. no money, no more clothes, no food, no contact with people. never enough. everyone here off guard to help, so it's a painful 1st few, few days and weeks. it's hard to get a true sense of what's happening on the ground in haiti, gride,
10:13 pm
some reports speak of thousands of people dead, but this is difficult to verify because of an internet blackout restricted media access and blocked telephone lines. ethiopian government troops are said to have surrounded the provincial capital, mckayla, and i threatening a major offensive if the leaders of the tea gripe people's liberation front do not surrender. ethiopia's prime minister who won the nobel peace prize last year, doesn't appear to be pushing for a peaceful solution. he's demanded the international community stay out of the conflict. heidi aggressive rhetoric on both sides regarding the fight for me is dangerously provocative and it risks casing already vulnerable and frightened civilians in grave danger. over the border in sudan, those who made it out of a just trying to get by he recently gave birth hopes, had a child point be forced to grow up in a refugee camp. it's been more than
