implement any decisions and orders of the party and government it's a sign of the 2 countries rapidly worsening relations than north korea's been complaining in recent weeks that propaganda leaflets have been flowing from the south claiming it's in violation of agreements reached when that liaison office was established less than 2 years ago some defector groups have been sending flowers and balloons across the heavily fortified border much to the ire of the north the government in the south has taken police action against the groups now saying their activities were helping efforts to achieve peace and prosperity of the korean peninsula to produce a more live comment on that coming up from tim. tim beal in asia specialist later forget lies and we'll go to him later to see what might be behind it now next to the northwest united states of the self declared autonomy zone in seattle patient protest by black lives matter campaigners who moved in after police moved out of
5:03 am
their precinct building in the city's capitol hill crowds building camps there and stocking up on supplies suggesting they could be in it for the long haul 1st off activists exactly but since he walks us through. when was the last time they used and 2 cities at once to my right is the city of seattle typically dreary monday afternoon. that is the capitol hill autonomous so it's now becoming known as chat but what exactly are the goals of this community what exactly is trying to be achieved here. let's go check it out. currently standing outside of the police department's east precinct which has been abandoned now after a series of protests that devolved into riots the seattle police department decided
5:04 am
to be prudent to actually leave the station and so this has become the kind of epicenter for for chaz the capitol hill autonomous zone this absolutely beautiful mural of the recent black lives that have been lost in these protests so i'm currently walking down the north part of pike street right now can see on the ground we have a sports car that's been put up i think a lot of people been working on this all week. trying to create a beautiful little space they have here this is the change right here is more restoring a lot of people look at my presidency with the changes already begun so you think this is about police brutality or is this more about systemic racism it exists now or couple do you think the goal of the chances of what's happening down here the goal is the people this is this is the. no this is the goal. everybody here or part of the goal is to bring everybody together
5:05 am
i feel like what's going on here is like definitely different playing on the floor some down at cal anderson park right now which has become sort of a living center for the capitol hill a town in the sun you can see in the distance. quite a few tents and people have been setting up and and kind of creating slowly over the last couple days living community. going way way back you can think about feels like we're not being listened to. and that's why it's important that the noise we made to your guns were kind of. oh well so are you worried about the police coming up in here and trying to bust us out trying to move this thing out not really side of the community garden that's been established here you can see that people are really coming together here stablish in actual permanent garden in the ground i think they're mostly trying to grow food and hopefully the goal of this becoming an actual sustainable community
5:06 am
we want to consumerism because it's just feeding into the system to explain what you're doing here you know what's the closest people. priority is going to look at the people of color and people that are in need everything is free there's been some disagreement about what the name of this this area and the community should be . for a while it was being referred to as the capitol hill autonomy own or chaz but now they've changed the name to the capitol hill organized protest or chop the reasoning behind this is that calling this area and a ton in the stone. could invite more violence from the federal government or from the police and i think it's very obvious town here that nobody wants more violence .
5:07 am
people are going to come here. and like protesting our protest we need some sort of protection. and whether that be guns or whether that be our voices we need that the people down here they are not. politicians they're not leaders they are nurses they're teachers they're restaurant workers they are the unheard but they're not rioting they are making music they are making are they are feeding the homeless they're doing wonderful special things but if the people of the world refuse to listen to the messages that are being spoken down here and they're going to miss out on something very important and very special. this exact reasons he coming to you from capitol hill seattle thank you for listening well president certainly coleman says he's made his feelings abundantly clear about the handling of the seattle autonomous zone laying the blame squarely at local leaders. ever gov
5:08 am
that doesn't do a damn thing about it and you have a mayor that doesn't know she's alive she's talking about it's going to be a love fest this summer you know if they don't do the job i'll do the job but i've already spoken to the attorney general about it but if they don't do the job we will do that you about 10 different things either any one of which will solve the problem quickly while this video has been circulating online for to check out showing a protest apparently hunting out assault rifles to minors despite being very much against the law in washington state. told me earlier that what he see though so far although we did see that rifle in there on what he's seen so far has been mostly peaceful. quiet what you see looks pretty quiet around juggling somebody filming your shoulder and you see any trouble. so i think we talk about you know more violence right i think it sort of starts with what you're on the ground have
5:09 am
come to understand for the last 2 weeks the looting and violence started from the heart and they were violent with flash bangs and. you know sound cannons are times so this is the most peaceful. outspoken talk radio host perkins told us the campaign is in that occupied zone should expect a tough response if they do keep it up going towards the summer. there's just a variety of stupidity on the level almost an insult to ordinary americans being exercised and displayed by these in chief of people as they try to pretend that having taken over downtown seattle it is now better run than it was before we see recently they changed their name from autonomous zone to occupied something or other because they're sort of. special independent status as a nation that they were so eager to grasp in the 1st week the reason they're doing
5:10 am
this is they've realized that donald trump can put up razor wire around their compound and install border crossing stations and revoke the citizenship of all the people in an autonomous zone and then begin to deal with them as the international independent country they claim to be anyone that escapes from the autonomous zone will be deported but there are all kinds of things that are well within common international law that the president could do. it and use more than $1000.00 american troops stationed in germany and to be pulled out president trouble made the order for accusing berlin of being delinquent he said and it's payments to the nato security alliance suggesting it ought to spend more on defense. but the only countries that hasn't agreed to pay what they're supposed to pay is germany so i said until they pay we're removing our soldiers a number of our soldiers by about half the people with money when it comes to well as far as he say's it not paying its way when it comes to nato the us
5:11 am
president saying he's ready to remove all of the u.s. troops that are currently stationed in germany now the figure at the doctrine put forward is around 52000 u.s. troops that's quite a bit higher than the official figures we have how many people are stationed. what we suggest is included in there is defense department civilian contractors anyway he wants to see that number could down to. 25000 the reason is well donald trump's nose is being put out of joint by angle of merkel food over 2 key issues one on trade with the u.s. president thinks germany is stress the united states very badly and the other one is when it comes to energy where germany has been buying up quite a bit of its energy from russia but is germany paying russia billions of dollars for energy and then we're supposed to protect germany for america how does that
5:12 am
work it doesn't work it is well worth pointing out that even at the height of the cold war west germany as it was there was buying energy from the u.s.s.r. was it was then as well this probably has a lot more to do with donald trump wanting to hawk u.s. l.n.g. liquid natural gas to the european market the issue there though is the l.n.g. is a lot more expensive than russian national natural gas that can be piped directly from russia into germany as is done through the nord stream pipeline when it comes to this announcement over troop withdrawals though it's shrouded in confusion heiko must the german foreign minister said this it will berlin had not been briefed to what washington intended to do i would see us german relations are difficult as you see that the decision has not been 100 percent coordinated with the united states government it is not surprising that it has not been coordinated with the us either
5:13 am
or following the announcement by donald trump the german ambassador to the united states. well correct the us president over the role of those u.s. troops that are stationed here in germany that they're there as part of the nato alliance the transatlantic alliance and said they provide the us with an ability to project power well far beyond their borders into play areas like africa into areas like east asia. as well when it comes to what's going to happen to these troops we still don't know that or as they said confusion surrounding the whole announcement there have been talk of some of these troops being relocated to poland we're going to have to wait to find out exactly what happens when we get a little bit more clarity coming from washington. indeed the next campaign is digging deep into britain's a story called racism and making calls now for the country's leading left wing newspaper to be shut down a 1000 strong petition accuses the guardian of being hypocritical in supporting the
5:14 am
black lives matter movement these days pointing to the fact that the paper was founded from the fortunes of a 19th century cotton merchant who used slaves the british and also details how the guardian originally supported confederacy in the american civil war coming out against president lincoln's moves to abolish slavery the paper is just one of the targets getting a racial wake up call in britain right now then more on it from saskia taylor. poor old blighty once an empire that spawned a quarter of the world's landmass and now back to haunt today's generations to lead you to calling the. british. from the scene if you really want to use the b.l.m. movement galvanised like never before people are taking a baseball bat out a few things seen as quintessentially british and the crowd was fast in lie.
5:15 am
we have a new sovereign young. woman. must we know don't worry but joel is safe so now but queen victoria did get him most on recall ball off to protest as dogs the words slave owner feeds as he subjects suffered the same fate bristol city benefactor a new tory s. slave trader who took up in the heart of to be toppled and then there's wind chill once proud king opal westminster and now gave a party it too must pay penance for the british empire as diabolical costs the university currently high school a new i'm uneasy an inequality must once and for all improve its intake of black and minority ethnic british students and students from countries that the u.k. has colonized and exploited. of the prestigious an historic centers of learning how

to also been told to do some serious soul searching they must now to colonize the canon and teach the dangers of white privilege but one staple of british life decided to get ahead of the cover and do some reforming before being loose that major tea brands p.g. tips on yorkshire t.v. say that races customers are officially. known cause. please don't buy o.t. again we're taking some time to educate ourselves and plan proper action before we post we stand against racism which does rather conveniently loss over the fact that the origins of the great british crew are quite literally rooted in imperial history and that the industry continues to use land and to pay workers in india so really no nothing matter oh speaking of which even major t.v. comedies are getting a go over from the reappraisal prison. technological
5:17 am
of cheap we've had running water for over 10 years underground tunnel that leads us to. david and i have spoken publicly in recent years about regret that we played characters about the races once again we want to make it clear that it was wrong and we are very sorry but you know i think if they banned english while analysts conversations about it well that that's when britain would truly just pull to pieces. there's a thought it's $20.00 sloan who rush are coming up for marty's world news h.q. after the break with me kevin 0 in 2nd wave coronavirus fears in the united states of things that nobody want to think about but clusters of new infections are being reported as people of course has been ditching the distancing of those crowds have been out protesting maybe it was inevitable it's one of our stories ahead for you.
