my. was. i. i. i i i. i i. that all forces were sent in earlier this week by president trump to quell anti-racism protests some residents and business owners complained their city has been turned into a war zone but more than a dozen u.s. mayors most of them democrats have voiced alarm over the federal crackdown and the u.n. is now voicing concern over the heavy handed security response. peaceful demonstrations that have been taking place in cities in the u.s. such as portland really must be able to continue with that those positions beaten

10:10 am
a yearning since our youth we used to say let the chains break in highest afia open as a mosque we've ended an 86 year period highness of fear has now returned to its essence it was a mosque and it's a mosque again. there's been some back and forth in the history of highest sophia originally it was built by the eastern roman empire as like the troll that it became a mosque after the ottoman hung quest and i think 35 it was converted into a museum but earlier this month turkey transformed back into a mosque when i discussed the novelist a former greek and bastard to canada believes the change in sophia status as a matter of turkish domestic policy well i think that he was doing it all maybe also for internal reasons because his popularity is dropping now in turkey because of the economic crisis and also my my impression is that he is trying to
10:11 am
put down. founder of modern turkey so this is an attack also against the demolished regime in turkey so basically it's an it's an internal problem that has international ramifications i don't think that he cares anything about statements being done the only thing that she might care would be if concrete measures were taken like the e.u. taking sanctions against against turkey for violating international law and violating the very real integrity of 2 of its member states which is greece and cyprus we must not forget that the e.u. has taken sanctions against russia for reasons much less. and which which i personally don't don't agree with them of yet it refuses or the moment to take sanctions against turkey. and in london face coverings are now mandatory and
10:12 am
all public spaces this however has raised the question of who should monitor compliance some shop owners are saying they will not enforce the new rule our u.k. correspondent allen reports. provide a it's now mandatory for people in england to wear a face mask when they go to shop for the supermarket so they go to pick up delivery now we're going to go on to the streets of london to try to see what the public think they should done this before coronavirus went into lockdown the fact that it's running one people 100 pounds. and probably money out of people's health just that that kind of profit picture of government. i think we should have been implemented from the beginning. i think it's important to abide by these rules because i think there's a lot of science that goes behind coming up with these rules most of the shops that i went into weren't really forcing the rules those that were just said that they would recommending people to where mosques to cover their faces now many of those
10:13 am
shop workers don't want to be enforcing those rules because they fear aggression and backlash from certain members of the public if they were to try to make people wear masks with hundreds of incidents of violence and abuse directed at retail stuff every day we welcome then ousmane that in force meant to be left to their thoughts rather than potentially put in hard work in retail colleagues in harms way if. someone refuses to wear a face mask probably we can kindly asked him to relief but as to enforcing it it's not viable it will be certain people would be upset about it. and indeed the most controlling boss of us also as well is our weekend in force if you don't always encourage people to have it but. god knows how we've done and sort of the government of said that those who refused to wear face masks when going into shops
10:14 am
could be fined up to $100.00 pounds should an individual without an exemption refuse to wear a face covering a shop can refuse them entry and can call the police if people refuse to comply the police have full info. compounds and can issue a fine and the police don't seem to be too keen either saying that making them in force that is both unrealistic and on foot policing the wearing of face coverings in shops can't be a priority because we simply don't have the resources to expect my colleagues to be policing the supermarket aisles looking for those shoppers not wearing a face covering is unrealistic and. the u.k. has had one of the was the coronavirus death tolls of any country around the walls there are some who say that these measures all better late than never but many of those who feel that it's far too little thought through like a saudi all to you on the. still ahead and eviction ban brought in for the pandemic expires in the us with many fearing they will now be thrown onto the streets
