is the too hot for the child guessing and i'm sure it is not this is not true because i mean they're saying that it's unlikely that he was on the whole month he was fine team and probably he might have been actually killed by his own faeces so that's kind of so far the information made the in the coming hours good days will know more about this outcome says around his death but so far that's what the people who. speak u.a.t. . these are very very fluid situation so it is still fred why he was seen on the battlefield. yet exactly that's the question i need we know from deposited. president idriss deby who i mean nasty i think all of these titled top of the meter operates my show last year as if i'd she was still seeing was a strong military man and he has been i mean it was said that he used to go into

battle field to fight day. before but not at this particular time when he was waiting for the day or future results to be announced and then he goes into the battlefield to fight inside that's why it doesn't make sense at this particular time so does that mean that people think that there have been foul play. yeah exactly i should years ago while i was there in china i was talking to some people and they welcomed this but president idriss deby will not finish he's 6 times he's probably going to be killed and even when these. rebel. attacks child coming from north to who wants him just enough they will convince the

these people are going to succeed there will come to a judgment of their will i was deceived i mean full of people who have been seeing him for a year is tall and strong military possibly believing that he can just vileness just say that in any event it is with that is something which is what people don't understand and what makes people think that probably the there is some sort of pretty here who could be taking over a now in charge who will take power do we think. he's his son general ti's the 2nd in command i mean after his father his very strong strong jenaveve there to civilian assault this is the guy. has announced that he's good to lead the transitional council and what kind of problems in conclusions could arise from

a potentially deteriorating situation in charge and in the region. well the chant has so many problems they have poverty they have inside genes that have pretty tone. they did the column she undergoes will decide a region. so this is the death of president idriss deby might actually make the situation worse but this isn't the country though position open season on seymour so sad organization rose up a few days ago a few weeks ago saying that we don't want him to to stand for some so all these other powers that are going to stunt and i mean they have got a voice now when there is this is some sort of power vacuum now it's likely going to be what i swear we're going probably to see more people find in full do power groups also rising to make sure the get what they wanted but also the opposition

trying to get to what they wanted to remove prince the easter b. but of course there's also some of confidence in the form of confidence of president interested but also want our. viewers west africa correspondent fred thank you for your reporting. well next to that breaking story the hughes medical regulator has given a green light to the johnson and johnson covert 19 baxi the spite a possible link to rare blood clots last week the company halted its european rollout after u.s. officials recommended putting the vaccine on hold after detecting 6 very rare blood clot cases among nearly 7000000 people who had been vaccinated the a.m.a. now says that the benefits outweigh the risks but a warning should be added to the vaccine labels let's get you more on

these breaking developments our correspondent in brussels is following this story closely for you what does the a.m.a. decision mean. well practically means that the rollout now can continue effectively they have given the green light for the johnson and johnson single dose vaccine to be administered but as you have pointed out they do recommend that this rare side effect it will be marked in the. product information if you want so they have a step list of a possible link they say to those very rare blood clots but they made a clear message today that the benefits outweigh the risks so if i understand correctly the vaccine will be rolled out but it will come with a disclaimer will this reassure everyone all that's a good question certainly this just as it has been the case with us as any hasn't exactly helped to improve. through prevent further vaccine has it and

see something that states like france but also belgium in particular struggle with so that is clear on the other hand the e.u. was always clear that they do want safety 1st they want to be better safe than sorry they want to carefully assess all the vaccines even as they rolled out this also applies to all the other vaccines on the market and that is why i respect this respect to the fact that this may create some for the hesitancy was people they they hope that it assures people that they take a close look even at very rare conditions and we're talking here about one in a 1000000. cases that may have these side effects yes it's very important to put that in perspective because the stakes as you know are very very high has this pos low down the vaccination rollout across the. well the plan was that in the 2nd quarter of $55000000.00 doses of the johnson and johnson vaccine would come in for

the e.u. now compared to more than $200000000.00 from biotech pfizer for instance that is a small amount however it's a single dose vaccine so we can double that number so that even 100000000 doses are not exactly a complete game changer here the e.u. at the moment is quite on course to vaccinate 70 percent of the population by this summer and that would provide the herd immunity that everybody is hoping for here in europe and bear briefly any conclusion i mean there is this sense of deja vu and now with this change a pause and now getting the green light from the email we keep thinking about of course the other one that the other vaccine that had a cloud hanging over it astra zeneca will people just you know be reassured now and go and have that shot i'm pretty sure what happens is exactly the same as happened to astra zeneca the number of european states have already decided that astra

zeneca is only administered to people over 50 or over 60 in the u.k. it's over 30 so different states in the e.u. are free to make their own decision here and that same thing will apply because it's the same technology it's the same breed of vaccine if you want the johnson johnson the astra zeneca therefore it has these rare side effects as well and so member states will make their own decision that it is administered only to an older population because so far it was predominantly young women who have been affected with these recite effects garrick motus reporting from brussels thank you. all right the secu let's let's tell you rather about some of the other stories making headlines around the world holding flowers and me and mar hundreds have marched in the southern city of dolly and protest against february's military coup it was just one of a number of rallies across the country to show support for the national unity government announced last week by protest leaders today the hunter said it was outlawing this

shadow government germany's chancellor angela merkel has said she is very concerned about the health of jailed russian opposition leader alexina valving and called for him to receive adequate medical treatment while her statement follows reports that mr vali was on the brink of death after 3 weeks on hunger strike. protesters took to the streets of the us city of minneapolis on monday evening as the city braces for the jury's decision in the trial of derek chauvet all the white former police officers charged with the murder of a black man george floyd the jury concluded its its 1st day of deliberations without reaching a verdict. now after a bruising power struggle germany's governing conservatives have agreed on a candidate to succeed chance the america in the country's elections this fall arman lash it has received the backing of both parties in the center right bloc after a week long battle with his bavarian rival marcus. if he came out victorious from

the conservative policy now i mean less should wants to focus on battling other parties. he appeared say what counts from now on is which party has the best ideas to country's future for me or to just base who can pull together the best team to deal with the challenges we're facing or disappear and that's why our party union this cd you and see is you need to head into this election campaign as a team this city you will not win this without this years you and vice versa. it is a team that from now on will be led by him that machall ally carnival king and committed to a strong europe the 60 year old has been state premier of north wind of a scaly germany's most populous state for 4 years and was elected c.d.u. party leader in january. born in the western city of often close to the dutch and

belgian borders russia just a former member of the european parliament and fluent in french for the most part his politics are moderate and have really reflect positions. the long and bruising power struggle within the conservative alliance only came to an end when his very and rival pulled out of the race i mean russia called i mean lushington congratulated him i also offered him our full support in what i believe will be extremely difficult election campaign ahead of us we will support him without any sense of resentment and with all of our strength i speak for myself as well as for my party this c.s.u. love off. the support of german voters however is something i mean lush it will have to work hard for in recent polls the majority do not believe he has what it takes to lead europe's biggest economy. as if we aren't he's not my type and i

don't see him as this incisive leader that i am hoping for and that we might need. i'm for his just the other way around he's not determined enough. with the conservatives on really handling it well now they finally have a candidate but they don't even have a program what kind of procedures that it's like getting a driver's license but there's no car anymore. is 5 months ahead of germany's federal elections i mean lusha now faces an uphill battle to defend the chancellery against the greens and succeed. or else go over to our political correspondent simon a young for his take on this story simon so there's this now mean that they have buried the hatchet and they hash it all out and everybody is now rallying behind mr english at. well i'm not sure that they've exactly hashed it all out but

certainly i mean lash it and now the candidate for the conservatives to be the next shown sl he'll be hoping that he can rally his troops a good night he's party but it hasn't started well they've had this very public struggle for the leadership and we've had lots of senior conservatives not supporting him in lash it 2 thirds of the of the c.d.u. party leadership only supported him one 3rd didn't and some important members of parliament on the conservative side of also not back to him and i would also say that marcus souter is still there in the very he's still much more popular in the polls than i am in lash it offered support today but it was somewhat muted support but to look at it another way i can say he's he's a winner he he won against 2 other senior conservatives to become c.d.u. leader in january now he's won this battle and of course also he becomes chance the

party doesn't depend on the the personality of the leader it will be about issues too in particular of course the management of the corona pandemic now of course a mystery alas that's the main election rival will be on alina bareback of the greens she's a 40 year old woman against a 60 year old man. do you think that he has met his match in her i mean this is the she stand a chance. well the green party stands a chance in the sense that it is riding high in the polls and they've appointed this charismatic young woman to lead them into the election and it may well be that come september the green party have a choice of who they might form a coalition with perhaps with the conservatives perhaps with other parties on the left of german politics and it will be

a battle certainly in parts of between generations the older conservative man and the younger green woman you have your political correspondent thank you now most european countries have been relying on log downs masks and travel bans to keep growing virus cases down during the pandemic but sweden has taken a different path as its top a pretty knowledge it doesn't agree with lockdowns and that's turned the country into an oasis of freedom but sweden is now seeing a surge of infections health authorities there are urging people to follow their advice but will they listen you know we use teri schultz reports. sweden seen as the land of sweet liberty for those chief ing against coronavirus closures curfews and mandatory masks while most of europe has been in various stages of lockdown over the last year swedes have been skiing shopping dining and drinking

restrictions in swedish restaurants mean giving customers space and closing at 8 pm i think we have taken away a round hole for us so we have one bank gun jimmy head waiter at that concern and restaurant in stockholm says sweden's done it right. it's. even learn from czech republic become or taking your we were. just free to freedom the architect of this model state epidemiologist i understand now basically the same as many other countries produce it sounds like a different way of trying to think sweden has tried maybe a bit more than notices to pinpoint what they need to close to protect the different way has seen sweden record a far higher death toll than its closest neighbors finland and norway a comparison he rejects they all flyers sweden. very much more

true belgium austria even germany and sweden these. $5.00 to $10.00 countries for at least excess more targeted but sweden's care homes in particular were hit hard last year and still now hospitals warn intensive care units are nearly overwhelmed in december even the king said he thought the strategy had failed but techno stands by his recommendations he says the only problem with them is that people don't follow them take masks for example understand doesn't believe they're very effective so on public transportation writers are urged but not required to mask up during rush hours few appear to do. so some feel that's a failure of the government's 1000 communications strategy at least journalism professor christian christianson says the lax approach to mask wearing exposes inequalities in swedish society in danger especially minorities you're seeing

people who are probably in lower paying jobs service industry jobs must take public transportation they're on packed trains in the morning day in day out with hundreds of people in a small container i think it's reasonable to ask like you know might that not be possible public health problem if they make it more tighter that everyone should make it and should wear a mask that would be very important maybe we could have spent some life a new emergency law gives the government temporary power to impose a lockdown but it hasn't been used polls show some swedes have lost faith in their country's approach to stuff our blood isn't one of them he still trusts in ender's ted now here a person like this different kind of way and crisis in the world we did it in a way where people still could have a lot of the freedom for me freedom is really important blood support isn't likely to fade quickly last year he immortalized the epidemiologist on his epidermis.

one way of share your peers i'm joined now by dr lena einhorn a filmmaker and for all a just from swedish she's a fierce and outspoken critic of sweden's corona virus strategy dr a very warm welcome thank you for your time put this in perspective for us how polarizing has the swedish health authorities approach been. it has been very very polarizing and mean if you look at the commentaries under the great articles and such it's fierce i would say so it has been very polarizing now there is the sense of exception of those i'm almost at that you get from this approach the sense that we do things our way what's wrong with that. well what's wrong with that is that the rest of the world is not crazy as i understand nell said last summer you know i mean you learn something i mean this we dish approach was perfectly normal in january of last year even beginning of february but you

know when reality changed most countries changed with it sweden did not sadly dr as you can see like other places in the world who have strict lockdowns coming in and out of lockdowns they're not doing really that much better either so you know one could argue that maybe the cure is worse than the illness what would your response be to that. well when it comes to lock downs the critical issue is when do you impose it if you impose it really early or rather when the numbers the case numbers are really low it's exceptionally effect effective it's effective when you do it out of desperation also but it takes much longer because once it's in many homes it has to rotate through the household members before you actually have an effect so when you do a strict lock down you know when it's

a desperation lockdown it takes much longer to have an effect but it still does have an effect it still does have an effect but dr is it too late now to change strategy for the swedish health authorities i mean basically you know will people comply with what they have to say now. but i mean you can do small things you can for instance tell people to put on face masks hardly anybody wears face miss even inside in the stores maybe every 3rd every 4th person wears a face mask that costs nothing and it's a very small imposition so there are you know and also all the restaurants are open and full the gyms are open and flow i mean there are some distances but so there are very you know you don't have to impose a lockdown but there are much smaller easier things that can get because we now have the 5th or 6th highest case numbers per capita per 1000000 inhabitants in the world we have exceptionally high case numbers right now. dr lee

and i and horne a swedish filmmaker and rogers thank you so much for making us aware of the situation as we can appreciate it thank you now to some of the latest developments in the pandemic a top e.u. official says the bloc will have enough covert 1000 vaccine doses to cover 70 percent of its adult population by mid july the e.u. has boosted production says facing criticism over its slow inoculation program. is extending restrictions including nightly curfews by 2 weeks as part of its efforts to combat a 3rd wave of infections and japan's 3rd most populous region of soka has asked the central government to impose a state of emergency the region's hospitals are overwhelmed by surging coronavirus cases well these days we all could use a story with a happy ending and this one comes from the indian state of maharastra where one
