8:05 am
the caricature of the other nothing justifies the fact of killing the so it is a mortal capital soon to kill a person like that to cut his throat like that all because it showed caricaturists of the prophet there have been there been 2 terror attacks here in france in the last 3 weeks and both of those attacks related to the images of the slim profit their present medical add line force wants to do the draft rudy to be presented before the end of 2028 he said that any deviation away from france's secular values wouldn't be tolerated he talked about liberating from foreign influences we know that that draft always going to closest scrutiny or schools and associations serves religious communities and that arabic will now be true in mainstream schools rather than in mosques that law is sent by the end of the year but it comes as polls have been giving us and in planning all walked many muslims feel one poll recently
8:06 am
showed that almost 3 quarters of those who responded who are under the age of $25.00 said that they would put their religion above that all of the republic this attack has only a huge fear now particularly amongst teaches you may have to give similar classes to that of several parties and this is even raised more questions about what's being done at the moment with that is actually enough to prevent this sort of radicalization that leads to such extreme brutality chart and eventually there will be also a spoke to the former mayor of the town where the atrocity happened. shoot. first i'm shocked and angered because this is complete madness a teacher doing their job giving food for thoughts about freedoms and republican values he was beheaded it's horrendous he's a victim of madness i'm even more shocked that this college is one i opened when i
8:07 am
was the town mayor and it had a good reputation working there was nice and it was located in a neighborhood without any problems or violence it's time for us to take a tough stance on the issue on how people intrude into from well being deemed as refugees and surprisingly given resident cause to 2030 i don't think that this act of terror is a crazy man's deed but a premeditated act at this point we must prosecute for any violation of the republic's laws in particular for the pressure being put on teachers and journalists to keep them silent. our space political analyst does believe the deadly incident highlights the refugee crisis unfolding in france because too early to see what type of check was done with these refugees come into france what kind of check does france do how would they do that to see their background or these people coming from what are their beliefs or what are their motivations why are
8:08 am

8:14 am
hear the sound of the sirens we are rushing here to hide every even in the reason we can hear the shelling people seem to be unfazed by the story state of the cathedral there's plenty of candles still burning. the half destroyed of the church people for peace to return to this land sooner rather than later because of reporting from the. following the attack on the cathedral a chalice from belgium performed amongst the rubble musician has armenian some played a piece by an armenian composer. disputed region is populated mainly by ethnic armenians yet the spokesperson for the foreign ministry insists it belongs to you back adding though that that doesn't exclude self-determination and i would look at that was the wrong thing to raise our children that was
8:15 am
a version of this is part of the internationally recognized that was the 2nd about armenians living in the. nation and so the domination does not need to go out for the session so does not mean independence so what we say of course we can reconcile that relation with really being that it was a joke if every group of people would declare i would claim that they have the right relation can you imagine what kind of. still to come in the weekly new restrictions are being rolled out in russia and also across europe as record coded rates are registered we'll have a look at the latest on that just after the break. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy foundation let

8:19 am

8:21 am
from moscow. now india has become the latest country to approve. and if that is the trials russia is ready to supply 100000000 doses to the country. currently carrying out 3. allegations the drug is being rushed to market some health experts are saying that desperate times call for desperate measures. and there. is a possibility and it's something which can be done and i don't see any reason why we should be so cynical about this. so the numbers are really gone the. country and the numbers continue to go down there might be
8:22 am
a 2nd. possibility is a vaccine it is the step in that i doubt if you know we know this is an issue which has affected the ward. at all and therefore to get. the the for the trials i think is a step in the right direction and i'm hoping that you know we could have the supply of the vaccine sooner than later. well the coronavirus is once again tightening its grip on europe france spain and the u.k. is setting new infection records on the daily basis far exceeding those seen during the initial wave however when it does come to tackling the health crisis it seems that political unity is in short supply these are all of the small. cases of coronavirus sky rockets across europe e.u. leaders are bringing back hard core restrictions and we have made a decision to impose
8:23 am
a curfew it will be in force in the paris region and 8 other french officers just in the same situation over the pandemic is serious because we record rising infection numbers almost everywhere the reason is that fear is a 2nd autumn winter wave of the virus would be worse than the 1st appear to be coming true back in march france was in lockdown with around 7 and a half 1000 daily cases the latest figures show that is on high and now the same picture is repeated in spain and in the u.k. while all those countries were in lockdown in the spring now politicians are trying to strike a balance between safety and personal freedom for many the potential economic damage of another lockdown outweighs concerns of a public health. since
8:24 am
the virus was 1st detected in europe different countries of opted for different tactics the swedish government went for a hands off approach relying on people following precautions without them having to be made rules that worked at least for a while but now restrictions are in place in sweden as well the disjointed approach among e.u. member states has caused public frustration a poll of e.u. citizens found that just over half of french people consultant thought there was unity in the block when it came to tackling coronavirus however 60 percent of italians and almost 3 quarters of those here in june. any thought the approach lacked solidarity as our anchor lariam security the measures are confusing that i have no idea where i can end it and they should simplify their rules i'm worried
8:25 am
about a 2nd law down especially the impact it will have on restaurant owners and the self-employed it's not clear if there is a right strategy but there must be a better way to explain the strategy where supposed to be a problem when can we knows the hot spots is knowledge family gatherings party maybe care homes and retirement homes that's where they should focus this is just chaos those were the one thing that was agreed upon this week was a unified set of travel rules for the european union we welcome the agreement reached day by the member states on uighur coordination of measures restricting free movement related to the corona virus pandemic it will have a single set of colors to categorize the different regions based on risk with a single set of rules to follow so citizens can see more clearly what the situation is the german chancellor says that means to be more cooperation across europe to help calm attain a virus that doesn't care whether it's in brussels bremen things we have also
8:26 am
experienced that european corporation is not limitless lee resilient i tell you the south critically especially in the beginning of the pandemic inveterate specht we focused too much on the problems of our own country but this experience once again makes it clear that we need each other we need close european cooperation in order to must agree challenges which can only be achieved together with the citizens and not working above their heads so far unified new approach to tackling covert has been lacking from european leaders these are all of our r.t. . but we spoke to a swedish epidemiologist who believes it's almost impossible to have 0 deaths as it seems many nations are striving for without badly damaging the economy. if you are happy to be able to enjoy our faces with fundamental difference then you have to see is whether there are 2 groups aware of those group with interest so it does not
8:27 am
help that they say well that was important from long before it should have been taken into account in deployment of the strategies to face the pandemic and that was not the done so this is this year i dunno. over incapacity unless you do. i don't see a purpose but thinking that your prayer these are others you know where your prayers are not to save their lives it will be with your prayer to start to save the economy or even thinking ok we have a nice economy doing this pandemic and the country will look down that will then we suffered much more so we're going to have a better position than they have been if you have those ideas you have to ration of course you're going to sacrifice. but that is. the human rights. a cable lend something
