in this together the early hours of sunday morning around 370 people arrived in the port of lampedusa on board a fishing boat now they received an angry reception from locals. here we're here for peace we just want the illegal migrants to go back because we're fed up tonight when produce assess enough. well local government officials in lampedusa are saying the island can cope no more with the sheer number of people that are arriving on their shores in fact the mayor of lampedusa spoke to r.t. saying this he wants to see a strike a general strike on the island to try and draw attention to what's going on in a situation he describes as overloaded and as you go through. this situation in lampedusa is disastrous in the sense that we have a full reception center in addition to the norm because we have 1260 people and then tonight there was

a landing of 300 $67.00 more people who can no longer be taken in here they've been brought to a facility made available by the church we always carry out our job with the total indifference of the italian government but here the problem is objective we not in a position to host more people all on saturday around 50 people were processed by the italian coast guard those migrants had been rescued from the mediterranean sea by the boat the luis michel. is the vessel it's funded financed by the street artist banksy skip it by the german captain. she is credited with rescuing at least a 1000 people from the mediterranean sea between 20112017 but she was also charged with colluding with p. . full smugglers by the authorities and it's only in 2019 charges that she strongly denies however you look at the situation in the mediterranean though regarding

migrants it doesn't look good we're seeing calls from the united nations and n.g.o.s operating in the area for the european union to do more and for membership states to share the burden of migrants that are currently arriving on the shores of lampedusa other italian islands what we are saying though is the situation in lampedusa is really our breaking point. the mayor of the tiny mediterranean island has said he fails abundant and the island feels abandoned by both the governments of italy and the european union. is

that before too i say that nothing has been done to solve the problem of migrants because in italy we speak only and exclusively from the point of view of differing factions but this moment is more of an electoral campaign than a solution to the problem we have 2 factions one that shouts yes and the other shouts no but they never sounds on paper how to solve the problem and therefore the problem both in easily and in europe is very serious we need to face up to it in a radical way but will continue to witness everything that is happening on the island i don't understand why transfers are not carried out with military ships what are these military ships for given that italy is not at war with anyone europe has done nothing for lampedusa on the problem of migrants no one listens and there is a deafening silence from the european and italian institutions even those. with taking an interest in the phenomenon of basically left of the. numbers of migrants crossing the mediterranean is continuing steadily it's

a perilous crossing at the best of times as we head in to the autumn and winter months it's only going to become more and more dangerous and require more and more people to muttley being rescued from the waters of the mediterranean this latest surge of sea crossings to italy comes 5 years after a landmark speech by german chancellor angela merkel on this exact date in 2015 she responded to concerns over the influx of migrants to europe with a message of optimism issues are going to enforce this and i say very simply germany is a strong country attitude with which we approach these things must we have achieved so much we can do it we can do it and when something stands in our way it has to be overcome it has to be worked on. according to official data almost 5000000 people have applied for asylum in the e.u. in the past 5 years italy france sweden and germany have taken in the largest

numbers germany has accepted more asylum seekers than any other country in the past decade that's according to the un refugee agency we spoke with peter bias thrown from the alternative for germany party he believes the inflow of migrants has been devastating for in germany. everybody knows that the policy wasn't success if the target was not to destroy the german society we are facing a very massive rise of criminality. committed by didn't ignorance look at the balls the breaks it was caused from big because of this migration prizes and because of the migrants quality seal the european union saw and breaks it is the beginning of the end of the you so does this was a big big problem and you see also the pensions now between countries in the european union between entirely on one side and germany on the

other side. between the countries up to the sugar out group on one side and germany on the other side said this this problem is making european union falling apart. french president emanuel mccrone is now in lebanon on his 2nd official visit this month it comes at a time of political turmoil in the wake of the deadly explosion in beirut on august 4th lebanon's president has just a point of the country's former ambassador to germany as the new prime minister so devinsky has more on the visit. well this is president marcos 2nd visit to lebanon in a month will it be another photo opportunity or will he be able to achieve something concrete his visit hard already planned to celebrate a 100 years since the creation of the lebanese state of course it comes under the cloud of those explosions that through this city even when he was just a few days lost his visit was equally criticized but some saying he was still

acting as if france was a protectorate of lebanon on the president who he thinks needs to happen in the country and he's talked about reform and we construction he says an interim government needs to be put in place that needs to be an audit of the country's central bank and he's called for fresh elections otherwise he is the worst of the country if we let go and if we somehow leave it in the hands of the depravity of regional power was it will be civil war as well as the defeat of what is the very identity of lebanon now lebanon on loan that has had issues politically economically and socially those exclusions back in august exposed to the rest of the the 190 people killed thousands injured and tens of thousands of people displaced after that visit spearheaded

a video conference to raise money for the stricken states and she 150000000 euros being pledged but front says foreign minister has said that the 8 come only with strings attached we will not sign a blank check for a government that does not implement reforms that everyone knows are needed everyone knows what has to be dealt with the humanitarian and senator emergency for a population that is deeply wounded and the political emergency on this country to hold together the risks today is the disappearance of lebanon politics in. no one is a political minefield this is a country that has political representation for the 18 different sex that live in the country so consensus between those is sometimes no easy task however there has been a cautious welcome from some political factions for much. the national. we are god willing with regards to naming the prime minister forming the government so

we will be co-operative contributed to pulling the country out of the power vacuum we have always rejected and always warned against. hezbollah and its allies hold a majority in the parliament in lebanon also gives you a sense of how important that encouraged this particular party and these remarks suggest that it is open to dialogue what president michel is doing by clearing has been in these talks is something that essentially new with a western leader has done that is open to the party politics in lebanon is a movable feast though so if it seems that france is demanding too much or if it's taking too much of the role as a previous colonial power these talks could quickly. present not go on has a very difficult path to tread it is a thin line between being seen to be in lebanon and helping the lebanese people and that interfering in the internal politics of the country we spoke with french

attorney who says french calls for reform in lebanon are unlikely to be successful . french president like to show the world its population that france is still a superpower that's why people call people. belong but for people that are against france or against the western point of view. criticize france as. of course colonial superpower all comes. and wants to say he worked for western countries foreign countries like great britain let's say you got there so you know it's a france trying to help. a country that has a lot of problems as usual as they are who saved the people of lebanon and not the government luckily for them it's the same because they go there for they all interest not for the people of lebanon i'm not sure but i don't think it's going to change a lot of live in and the politics and the economy called struggle. china

has introduced new restrictions on tech exports and a move that could block the sale of tech tax operations in the u.s. several u.s. firms have launched bids for the popular chinese app but under the new rules the chinese tech that includes speech modeling and voice recognition can only be exploited if approved by beijing artists ask a tell it looks at why companies are buying to buy an app that until recently was the focus of spying allegations. law i am snooping on stealing if you believe the u.s. these are china's favorite hobbies that after years of targeting our industries and stealing our intellectual property you should know there is enormous risk risk to america's national security as well the theft of american jobs and wealth. has come to an end and deny the chinese communist party access to the private information that belongs to america but in

a twist only 2020 could provide it's no be showing he's getting touchy about its tack such an technologies will not be subject to export bans or restrictions meaning they have to be green that by the chinese government someone who would be doing a 15 2nd synchronized jig to celebrate this news byte daunts take talks at parent company because all day a rough couple of months involving volatile and legal disputes talk about of an executive order as we're looking at it we may be bending to bear that the use of tech talk by all federal employees i don't mind if there's microsoft or somebody else a big company whose security company very very american company via the chinese company has to sell off its u.s. operations because donald trump said so on because there's 100000000 users new u.s. company bond and into that dominance the slip sinking free wild mess and given its basically

a direct line to millions of young people right for our ads research and data collection which don't worry is totally acceptable what america not the chinese communist party is doing at right facebook take talks about us tech giants chomping at the bit i mean who wouldn't want to piece of this pie. bizarre as it may seem right that is a gold mine and for some it really has washed its weight in gold tight juggernauts microsoft and oracle said to be leading the race in a potential deal i don't want him to take out

a room at $20.00 to $30000000.00 below to daunce the way to ownership of the outrageously successful op i need not gas he was also eyeing up a piece of this pot are you were is microsoft or somebody else or it was the chinese what what the price is the united states could should get a very large percentage of that prize and we think we deserve to have a big percentage of that price coming to america coming to the treasury while chumps teaming take top treasury may not be such a sure thing if i don't find it still roadblocks by beijing's new regulations even truman ties teenagers from new york to california straight to bat for me was their identity either way yet must be sad for a naing snooping and stealing up to talk show and tell us how the knot of supes was and that willing to splash all kinds of casts to get it into bad you know there are many laws that are that have already been passed and so several more there are that

are working their way through congress and certainly will be signed by the president that are banning chinese apps and chinese tech products but i think in one sense china wants to get ahead of that it's embarrassing and so you know by passing their own ban on cells. it's a way of regaining some of their national face what we're seeing now from the chinese side might prevent tech talk from selling to an american company like microsoft or wal-mart they see this as an attempt by the u.s. to basically force a fire sale of cutting edge attack that undercuts the value of the chinese companies but also gives chinese our u.s. companies access to technology that they don't have. still had the 2020 race to the white house is heating up with the main candidates vying desperately for black votes details on that story and more after this break.

me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to us of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. welcome back the u.s. presidential election is looming and with both the republicans and the democrats having now held their conventions the latest poll shows donald trump gaining a little ground on joe biden whose lead though still looks comfortable but count it's have lately been actively trying to woo the black community. that all have a great vice president that my size. senator kamel irish she knows about all the obstacles shown in the way of so many in our country women black women black americans south asian americans government grants the left down to the left behind and i have done more in 3 years for the black community than joe biden has done in

47 years. when i'm reelected the best is yet to come. by and the efforts to win black votes include picking column one harris as his running mate she's the 1st black woman on a major party's presidential ticket biden also gave an interview to rapper cardin b. however some of the things he's been saying have decidedly missed the mark you've got a moral question if you have a problem figuring out where you are for me or trump and you a black unlike the african american community with notable exceptions the latino community is an incredibly diverse community with incredibly different attitudes about different settings bines approach to criminal justice has also alienated some in the black lives matter movement who want to see the police to funded his policies would see an increased police presence in some black communities even human rights activists says this all gives the impression that bind doesn't really

get black voters. it was quite clear that the. troll forces. targeting black voters they believe that some sectors of the black population is in fact in play that is that they can be persuaded to support. and it may be successful because of the fact that the democrats don't appear to be anything different than the campaign that they invent is in 2060 minute reasons that to support a draw is you a black person the bits of you like a member of the working class but they also made it raises that use give you a vote to the democrats if you are a black person and in particular a member of the black working class so you know this notion that by and understand is black folks that he. has some kind of understanding of what blake people need in

particular the black working class has never flooded in his policies. and his positions over the course of his 47 years in congress. italy's tourism industry is reeling from the blow it's been dealt by the pen demick with business down 70 percent research suggests some 50000 companies are at risk of shutting up shop while those that are staying open are struggling to recruit staff . we have big problems finding not only qualified but also unqualified personnel when we interview people for a place at a restaurant we find those who compare the offer with 3900 citizens income despite us proposing a permanent or fixed term contract nobody in our sector wants to exploit workers but when we offer a contract from 802-1200 euro they tell us they prefer to stay at home and

the government with these subsidies is creating a system of people who sits on the couch and do nothing all day people who don't want to work because they get the same money if you have 2 children and the low income the state gives you almost 1200 euros a month why should you work taking the same money in this welfare system is frightening i have employees in my shop who tell me why don't you fire me so i work illegally and get 2 years of benefits there are people who now come to have luxury dinners and pay for them with the subsidy card i can tell you that we are really mad it has become a credit card donated by the state and loaded every month that oil unfortunately there are ways to get resources from somewhere else some people decide not to work and do something else and now hotel sector went into crisis to find people who want to work and i'm talking not only about professionals but also about those who just

start working i believe citizens income must be completely reviewed it shouldn't be about passive support but rather about making people work this summer many hotels have opened without customers keeping system workers and therefore lose a lot of money. italy's unemployment rate is now at 9 percent one of the highest in the european union as with no or little earnings can claim the so-called citizens income of up to 780 year us a month to qualify you have to be an e.u. citizen or have lived in the country for 10 years we've got. action to the scheme from locals. but i mean the lack of stuff for hotels restaurants is becoming quite critical decisions income is creating many problems many people prefer to take the money stayed home and don't work many people also take the money while not actually needing it. it's clear that if restaurants or other companies believe that they can exploited workers then i disagree because it's clear that if

a person has to grow up for 12 hours and $600.00 euros a month he would probably stay at home and receive the citizens income. a loss we must start from the assumption that the citizens income has been badly managed in italy in germany they certainly manage the better. because these people are comfortable staying at home and earning this free salary while there are people who just want to work i believe the problem was created by our government and people obviously take advantage of it. the ecuadorian government and the international monetary fund have struck a new $6500000000.00 economic relief deal however the lifeline has prompted fears of more painful austerity measures ecuador has been in the grip of an economic crisis for years and the i.m.f. has helped prop it up financially with loans to secure them kyoto has had to slash funding for the public and health care sectors that critics say has left the country vulnerable during the pandemic it is among the hardest hit by cope at 19 in

latin america. i. think the everyone into. population had this grown the virus but we did not have medical help because the doctors did not come here they are only in the city and we had to go and look for them so people use home remedies go away. in the hope you can you can't imagine how bad the hospitals were they didn't want

to admit anyone else so instead they took my parents to kill me because my father and my mother both died there. in principle receiving that sum of money for a country in crisis sounds like good news well did they believe that detail these agreement is not a free lunch for it whether it comes with the star condition not imposed by the i.m.f. which continues to promote disastrous a story people are these policies are raking in how book on the contras economy as well as its health care system leading to systematic by lesions of the economic and social rights that the other your constitution and the national protect public anger over austerity has seen people take to the streets even during the pandemic
