a hammer everything is a nail that's what's happened to our justice system in america about 30 or 40 years ago and successively since what we've done is we've militarized our police departments we've militarized our cities for economic reasons and for political reasons we have chosen to put all of our funding all of our money on those people who arrest people rather than those people who help grow people what it did was it turned us all into a boss versus verma and it's been going on ever since and everybody you know i know there's obviously a racial disparity in all of this as you said and it does tend to break more toward african-americans who look different but if you really look at it police officers in america out there also versus them that they've developed many of them are good people but they've been put in that situation the way we should i believe now

fundamentally economically what they the other ways this is going to 2 weeks we have serious problems in this country they're not being addressed there be it because we don't have the money going where it needs the rich get richer everybody else is worried that your little list is. actually out empires die natural makes journalists from dissolved in sigh we are in that position. liz.

you certainly should also if you do sort of a rescue team intervene very quickly the fuel spill was localized to them by now river and the rescuers have already started working intensively to collect our little world. rushes investigative committee has launched 3 investigations into what happened and it has detained an employee of the power station where the fuel tank feel. now when europe shut down to stem a cruel a virus sweden kept going no the scientists behind that's tragedy think it perhaps

should have been tougher last that businesses stayed open in what was seen from abroad as a risky move a little bit sweetest it's epidemiologists cause too many deaths he doesn't think it was wholly wrong. if we were to encounter the same disease with exactly what we know about it today i think we would learn midway between sweden dude and what the rest of the world food. well sweden has suffered more than 4 and a half 1000 deaths that's out of a population of around 10000000 people and that makes it the most affected of the scandinavian countries the others enforced harsher restrictions well the government says it's not really helping it it says it was ready to take on wider measures against the virus if advised to by the health agency residence though they're not so sure a poor live today echoes others suggesting that cold finance among swedish in the

state's ability to deal with the brick house drop significantly since april plenty of experts who move there seem to have had enough to their plumbing to pack up and ship out as soon as they can we got the views of another swedish epidemiologist on the situation. we're not only started we entered on a why. then of course the nation how did washington in their. way which agree there it was centered the experiences of other countries around us it was started by normally i didn't buy that there is. another country's she was there actually did not see what we know then don't. know then you were trying to shame me they were trying to save. mine said ask you to change i'm not going to student all shit out of countries but. we would be in

a much more around fortunate. europe's internal open borders are still some way off being a 2 way street fia telling prime minister is under austrian greece for maintaining travel restrictions on the telling instead this and calling them the screw minatory totally unacceptable it leaves reopened its borders to e.u. citizens to try and breathe a little of life into its stall tourism industry peter all of her has been looking at how getting around europe isn't as clear cut as it used to be. summer is here and it's good news for germans were wondering if they're going to get a sunshine break this year the government here in berlin is lifting warnings against travel to european nations from the middle of this month the foreign minister heiko mass in making me announcement though was king to stress this isn't a green light for travel with wild abandon. we know that this decision creates hope and expectations but i'd like to stress once again travel warnings are not travel

bans and travel guidelines are not invitations we want to make it clear in our travel guidelines that travelers are not to go to the u.k. we're not essential and as long as there's a 14 day quarantine in place getting ahead of everyone else in europe is italy they opened their borders on wednesday the lockdown is brought upon this lead the worst recession since world war 2 and the government is looking to holiday make is to revive the economy prime minister says the crowds of travelers they hope will be flocking into the country is a risk italy is willing to take. we're facing a calculated risk knowing also a most sincerely. logical cove may rise again however there are fears the tourists will skip visits to the coliseum and gondola rides this year it's early is still reporting dozens of covert 19 cases daily and the national dispute rages over the dangers of the fire a claim by

a well known italian doctor that coronavirus is losing potency the world health organization stepped in with international experts warning against a false sense of security you know the reality is a virus practically no longer exists from a clinical standpoint we've got to return to being a normal country because there's evidence we can go back to having a normal life there are still thousands of people every day die from this worse so we need to be exceptionally careful not to create. the sense that all of a sudden the virus by its old felician is no decided to be less pathogenic that is not the case at all never the less the italian foreign minister is doing the rounds trying to convince everyone that italy is safe for tourists to visit while local mayors are doing their part to try and draw people in to beaches restaurants and cafes that have been empty for too long.

he sure is to be able to come too close or not. we are ready to reopen with great success we can accommodate many tourists the risk of contracting the virus is extremely low we have to open to accept people however it seems silly we'll still have to wait for its neighbors to open up as the reopening has already caused some troubles on the border. but we can go there but we can't go back to france so if we're going to get stuck there it's not worth. what we were forbidden to go back to italy the italians could go back to france with impunity without control without anything now we were told yesterday it could be open today there were problems

those european nations that rely heavily on tourism cash are desperate for holiday makers to come to them the question now is how many will be willing to travel while coronavirus continues to infect people for r.t. belin. some of the world's big headlines are shaping up this thursday 4th. reporting from moscow i mean i know we're on lot of social media of course on the t.v. and 30 minutes are to u.k. takes over the broadcasting reigns in london so for now. the entire newsroom stay safe stay well. don't have faith in this government official of president i don't have faith in the system i swear i've got it's over i'm too liberal the system is not to sign for
