[000:00:00;00] place . the law. business news live from berlin and more than 3000000 infections in hospitals pushed to the limit as coded 1000 infections soar and germany the federal government lays out plans to centralize more power as the regions fail to bring the crisis under control. also coming up tensions running high in the us city of minneapolis as demonstrators took fire curfew for a 2nd night to protest against the telling by police about another young black man

the officer alleged to have fired the fatal shot said that they're got for a taser. as the japanese government says that it has decided to really use more than a 1000000 tons of radioactive water from the damaged fukushima nuclear plant into the sea to stand in anger at home and abroad. playing. welcome to the program. germany's cabinet has just approved a set of national rules a bit aimed at bringing down soaring corona virus infection numbers parliament must now pass the bill that would prescribe unified measures across the country for the 1st time germany registered 10000 new cases on tuesday intensive care units are under strain and the leading health authority warns that hospitals could become

overwhelmed unless stricter measures are being put in place. after present there is a patchwork of measures across germany's federal states the new law would oblige all regions to implement a so-called a merge and see break it would be activated only if the 7 day incidence rate exceeds $100.00 cases per 100000 people a curfew between the hours of 9 pm and 5 pm would then be imposed and all non-essential shops would be closed. deputy political editor mr standing by with reaction so mckayla tell us a little bit more about this move and why it has become so crucial for the government. well essentially these 16 federal states and the central government met literally dozens of times online agreed on measures and then everybody went in different directions and did different things this is angela merkel's response

calling all 16 states into order and also pushing to get more credibility back into the approach of the german government and also the regional governments as germany faces that 3rd wave of it's right in the middle of it experts are warning that we're still not seeing the full data yet because of the easter break and intensive care units are already filling up to a crucial point so lawmakers are under pressure no down and yet the government is struggling to push parliament to put this on a fast track to decide this fast the hope is that it would be decided by the end of this week but it could take even longer how fast does that track make a let me just walk us through the approval process what comes next well we have the parliamentary group's meeting today and if they all agree to put it on the agenda it could be discussed in parliament this week it would then go into the opera house which is the buddhists are that's where the 16 federal states all have their say

once again and that would finally put everybody on the same page at least if and when german regions hit that $100.00 incidence rate per 100000 inhabitants within the space of 7 days and that's already large parts of the country so we could expect if that federal emergency brake is put into nor that it would have to be put into place in large parts across germany to what extent is this being seen as a game changer in the country. well it would instill some certainty into what happens if that magic number of $100.00 is passed and it would make it less confusing for germany's germans who become tired and annoyed at the fact that they are simply confused over what has to be done in which situations where schools are opened where which shops are opened that's all been patchwork so far and that has added to the frustration of the response which has been slow and vaccinations slow

on testing and particularly slow on strategies when it comes to keeping schools open so a lot of frustration here in germany and after all this is an election year with federal elections in september mahela cousin are in berlin thank you. protestors in the u.s. state of minnesota have taken to the streets for a 2nd night after a young black man was shot dead by police near minneapolis the officer who fired a 20 year old want to have rights says that she confused her gun with a taser tension in minneapolis was already running high before this latest incident as a white former police officer derrick chauvin is currently on trial they're charged with the murder of george floyd the president is appealing for peace. the last moments of don't have rights life be courted by the body come of the police officer

who fatally shot him. 22 year old reuters arrested during a traffic stop. he struggles free and gets back in the car then. police say the footage shows that the officer used her gun by mistake. as i watched the video and listen to the officers commands is my belief that the officer had the intention to deploy their taser but instead shot mr wright with a single bullet. this appears to me from what i view and the officers reaction in distress immediately after that this was an accidental discharge the resulted in the tragic death of mr wright. angus spilled out onto the streets hours after rights killing. a dusk to dawn curfew was imposed to stop further on rest that protesters gathered for

a 2nd night in the suburbs of minneapolis outraged by yet another death of a black man at the hands of a police officer. called president joe biden appealed for calm. but we do know that the brain trauma is just in the black community in that environment is real serious consequential but it is just not justified violence and or looting but the shooting of dante wright has fueled tensions in a city already on edge over enough that i have a tourist case not far from where wright was shot dead rick show even the officer who killed george floyd is on trial for murder. and sick a look at other stories making headlines around the world one person has been killed and a policeman injured in a shooting at a high school in knoxville tennessee gunfire was exchanged when officers approached

a male suspect hiding in a bath for 3 other students at the same school have died in gun related incidents this year. russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov has said that he expects the international deal limiting iran's nuclear program to be saved speaking after talks with his iranian counterpart lavrov said that iran should willingness if the u.s. upheld its agreements to laugh off also criticized the e.u. for imposing sanctions on iran during ongoing talks on reviving the nuclear program that. taiwan has unveiled a new amphibious warfare ship that can be used to land troops the massive ship is the latest part of the program to modernize the armed forces it comes as china escalates its threats to use military force to annex the island it says is its

territory. japan has announced that it will start releasing massive amounts of tema needed water from the nuclear power plant into the sea the water has been stored in tanks at the plant since it was destroyed by a tsunami and earthquake in 2011. tapan says that the decision was unavoidable and that the water will be diluted to meet international standards before it's released in about 2 years time japan's neighbors south korea and china have condemned the proposal as have environmental groups and local fishing communities. as friend john byrne a senior nuclear specialist at greenpeace he's training us from scotland welcome to the program and thank you for joining us your reaction to this move i mean the water here is reportedly going to be treated deluded can it be safe no absolutely not and the government and the owner of the site to kill that should all be yours they cannot be trusted with their assurances these discharges ability to

leave the store in 2 years time but it's at least 30 years old nuclear waste dump in the pacific with 'd the result. they say it's unavoidable for their part so i mean what do you make of that claim and do you see an alternate way to potentially deal with the problem. the clear alternative has existed for years and the long term storage we forced her to to admit into those 19 the fact lance bass on the site was available in fact the government school committee that investigated this issue who did last year the one who would be available to submit daiichi nuclear plant so the 2022 idea that is running out of space is a myth and it just serves the interests of the government which wants to basically dump this problem into the pacific ok and we've heard that neighbors are reacting south korea china for example this decision might presumably have far reaching

consequences for nations such as those just walk us through what those might be so all the reader activity that will be released different types of radioactive materials we've got 2 trillion which a percentage of which becomes chemically parent cells human cells their cells but other redirects of isotopes like stored in $1000.00 which would be released by these discharges concentrates in the bones of course fish in humans increasing cancer rates. the communities in korea or china that were accused of this as well as in japan itself know that this is an ongoing threat that must be stopped so what you're going to see i think the good coming weeks months and even years is increasing opposition to the japanese government's decision and i remain optimistic actually that we can stop the us what does it mean for humans. so any reader activity this list as the department will have a consequence obviously depends what type or redirect the team that moves through

the environment by you cumulate for example in seafood japan korea or china the last see through it will see wheat that will become contaminated and that increases the risk doesn't mean there's an inevitability that is guaranteed that you will have a health advantage of cancer free but it increases the radiation burden and that's not exactly. john berney senior nuclear specialist at green peace thank you so much for joining us to share your view on this move from the japanese government that has been announced they appreciate it well. soccer now and byron munich are preparing for a champions league quarter final clash with paris and time on the variance you know when to keep them in the competition but p.s.g. is impressive display in munich last week shows buyers are facing a tough challenge by in a rarely cost as underdogs but that's how they see themselves as they had to paris in need of at least 2 goals to qualify for the champions league semifinals after
