we've seen clashes look please liz liz it's elation here is why dramatic tendency to be pulling back to take up you know going back towards the parliament building which is where they were concentrated yesterday. i am i have lived here also seeing that some believe that the cuban 19 pandemic could get worse from from so many people

gathering for. my place but the for your don't seem to care about that much. leave her than your porch a residence with her artist why aren't the. basically given up on your own over the weekend but then it's through the stillness really and you can see. they're going back towards the police. they're going back towards the fairgrounds and sensually and i say they're not going to give up. ok let's give you an update then on the global corona virus think it is the overall case count has exceeded 12000000 people worldwide with more than half a 1000000 fatalities meanwhile a new study to show that the death toll in europe is 2 thirds higher than expected in a bad flu year the death rates are higher both among older generations as well as the 15 to 44 age group the worst hit countries have been spain and the u.k.

as well as france and italy we spoke to dr david nabarro who is the w.h.o. special k. with m. boy to europe. the primary mode of transmission of this virus and i want to stress that that is still believed to be true droplets if you are 2 meters your clear of them if you get some very very small particles that are light enough to be picked up by the air then they couldn't go further than 2 meters there w.h.o. house actually knowledge that it's knowledge that all along but it continues to say that this airborne transmission is less common. just 2 examples one is when you've got people singing in a choir or in

a karaoke bar 2nd situation is where you've got people in very confined quarters and with the air circulation not really bringing in friendship and wiring it's that then you can get circulation of particles that can cause disease but those are exceptional they're not normal situation. i would like all countries to do everything possible to avoid further stringent lock downs physical distancing face protection and hygiene this virus is here to stay. just like 2530 years ago this new virus called h r m b came along causing aids and it here to stay so it is here to stay we have to learn to live with this virus and get on with our lives despite the

fact that it's really dangerous and unpleasant the only way in which those pirates could possibly disappear is if it eradicated and that will require a massive rigorous and well implemented program with a really super vaccine and we're not there at all. now the brazilian press association has filed a lawsuit against president for taking off his mask during a media conference call to announce the fact that he has the coronavirus we'll have the details on the story a bit later in the program. in france there is anger on the streets of the capital over some newly appointed ministers who have rather questionable pasts a protest staged by a women's rights group took place on tuesday and is expected to continue on friday .

he shouted means he explains now why changes at the heart of the french government have provoked such anger. president macron had hoped to reshuffle of the french government would give him a much needed boost languishing in the opinion polls and with less than 2 years before the next presidential election he needs to turn things around but as some of the names for some of the top jobs in french politics were announced mouths dropped in shock the new interior minister the man in charge of law and order here has done one known founded many when we talk about the careers of men chanter and

regulations are we talking about those appointed as ministers how can you imagine for a moment that the fight against sexist and sexual violence moves forward with a rapist at the interior ministry. and a masculinist of the justice ministry to. this government is a disgrace it's a tremendous slept that emanuel macron has launched in the face of all those who have mobilized against sexual and gender based violence dominance character has been cloud since rape allegations were made against him now a woman alleges that he forced himself on her during a meeting in 2009 the woman on has always denied the accusations while the original proving to the claims was dropped just weeks before he was anointed into one of the most powerful jobs in france a court decided to reopen the probe many are now questioning my judgment saying it's an insult to victims of sexual assault. concerning. he

currently has been against him and recently the justice system relaunched the investigation into his case was posing the problem is that he's been nominated to become france's top cop meaning he'll have under his orders people who are supposed to be investigating his case. but leaving him an 18 sound one who's been abused. right as the head of the police when the older 2 don't take complaints seriously is generally speaking kind of 2 women who are victims of rape sexual assault who police refuse to listen to. for us and for all people who are victims of rape assault there is spitting in our face really because for months for years even we've been denouncing violence that we're breaking the silence when it comes to rape cells domestic violence and we have the feeling that we're hurt but they don't care at all about what we have to say outraged over this decision protests

erupted. oh. oh oh. oh oh despite the intensity of emotions boiling over it leaves a powerless little to offer a legal analysis the relevant service is assessed that there was no obstacle to dominoes nomination domino nero wasn't the issue protesters took umbrage with the newly appointed justice minister also riled the crowds he's the lawyer to pull a retie he's previously defended high profile men who faced charges of rape he's also known to be a critic of the me too movement suggesting some actresses sleep with men in power to get a leg up so to say calling it a promotion the leader of one french feminist organization had this to say ladies

and gentlemen our new justice minister i have to vomit on the streets of paris protesters were equally appalled this is. someone who has defended for a post office a from a site who must be defended in a court of law indeed but it came with a way of defending them by attacking the me too movement talking about the histories. of the debate in reference to women only directly to paul moretti as interior minister and justice minister is for us the fatal blow to this so-called great cause of the presidential it doesn't seem that this is about to grow were there protests of being called across france on friday with many theory is that playing making these appointments macron has in their minds. dumped gender equality an issue he had once described as a little rand paul was the cause of his presidency so it didn't ski r.t.

harris. now the top american universities of harvard and the massachusetts institute of technology have filed lawsuits against government departments that is after new guidelines were announced according to which all international students will have to leave the country if their universities move to solely online education. vigorously so that international students and international students at institutions across the country can continue their studies with of the threat of deportation according to the new guidelines foreign students attending universities and colleges that will operate online only from the autumn have to leave the country those are old but currently abroad won't be issued visas although international students do have the option to transfer to other schools with face to face teaching but the move has put a big question mark over the 1000000 or so international students currently in the country they do make up more than 5 percent of the entire higher education

population in the u.s. and in 2018 international students to boost the country's economy by nearly $45000000000.00 matthew from a midwestern state university does believe that the sector has to find a way for foreign students to remain. we don't really have much of a choice in terms of leaving the country because. of us international students and some of the countries that we do come from their force are close so in a sense it's kind of a sticky situation is that we're stuck here i mean i'm myself i'm from damita and reports there are currently closed even though there aren't any couvade $1000.00 cases in dominick at the moment but the ports are still closed just for a scene of safety precautions and all that the universities suggests find some kind of way to make sure that the classes can be in person whether it's

a can hand sanitizer before you enter the building or if we all have to put on masts then we'll just have to do that in force in that just try to find some way to make university students stay in the country. for the coming few the likes of robert de niro nancy pelosi in kenya west received millions in u.s. government back in what was meant to be the trump of ministration they lack to help the most vulnerable businesses will have a look at why this happened just after the break. the past 3 presidential election cycles demonstrate voters are against reforms and one nation building nonetheless remains high priority for the elites why is this

all voters say foreign policy and exactly why should u.s. and allied forces stay in. seemed wrong when all rolls just don't hold. any new world yet to shape out just being active. and engaged equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.

hello again now the trumpet ministration has handed out the trillion dollars to support small businesses during the pandemic but it does turn out to that tens of millions of also ended up in the bank accounts of venture capitalists celebrities and also politicians has more. the pandemic has had a deadly effect on the u.s. economy thousands of businesses have closed their doors trump's government has launched a payment protections for ogram intended to keep the economy rolling along in these hard times sounds like a good idea but it's off to a bumpy start this $100000000000.00 doesn't even begin to touch it they said about a trillion dollars program to begin with scores of angry business owners claim they were also denied in the p.p.p. room while its intent was i think good it's it's not practical for what they do many small business owners on the losing end of the recently published lists of

companies that got payments has many asking questions about who ended up on the winning side now when you think of a small business you probably think of a community hardware store or a family owned restaurant not t.g.i. friday's restaurant chain or kanye west or perhaps the burning man music festival robert deniro a hollywood actor and trump critic even got a bailout for his restaurant chain i'm going to say one thing trump. many of trump's harshest critics seem to have no shame about taking p.p.p. money middle seat consulting a liberal firm utilized by the reelection campaign of alexandria kazuo cortez got a decent payout. e.t.i. associates a company associated with speaker of the house nancy pelosi is husband paul palosi received a loan of between $3501000000.00 making nancy pelosi as recent criticism of the

program sound just a bit hypocritical the administration's decision to hide basically a tech protection program one data is a disturbing sign of it's like a concern for who gets this funding how much they receive or why and finally there is joe biden he's got p.p.p. confused with p.p. to make sure we have enough p.p.p. those those protective gear in there are there enough are enough p.p.p. our own enough material barista holdings his son's natural gas firm it's got ties to ukraine was also a beneficiary of the program as were many top biden donors it's not businesses are really the engines are cities of the prime generator of jobs and own lot of the small business is these mom and pop businesses did not get these p.p.p. loans no one understands why this happened what standards for use out of the total of all small businesses that applied for p.p.p. money nationally nearly $22000.00 small businesses received

a loan for under $1000.00 and more than $1200.00 of those businesses received less than $100.00 with some businesses receiving loans as low as $1.01 of the also interesting things is that those that did get the loans and those are forgivable loans were the larger companies not small businesses the venture capitalist companies billionaires political powerhouse people whether it's republican or democrat everybody is drinking from the trough of free money u.s. president ronald reagan used to say that despite rivalries politicians were quote all friends after so. well it seems you should have added to that all friends when it comes to handing out taxpayer money you will martin are to new york. by russia's federal security service is to turn the governor of the habit of
