france germany and the u.k. send medical aid to run under a trade mechanism designed to avoid u.s. sanctions. and a lockdown in senegal but with limited access to clean water there are fears about how far infections could spread and. now as we've been saying spain has recorded its worst single day death toll so far with 849 deaths in just the past 24 hours it's the 4th day that the country's announced the deaths of more than 800 people this brings the total to more than 8100 spain as the 2nd west heads country in europe off to italy most iraq joins me from madrid now i know every day we look at these figures and we speculate about the trajectory of all this but is there a sense of where and when the peak might be in spain. well mr. live this fast street is due to do a baloo sion of the number of infections which had decreased or drop in the past 3 days we went from a 13.7 percent down to a 9.3 percent yesterday but today those figures have increased again we have reached $9200.00 people infected newly infected new infections in spain out of a net of a total of $94000.00 the death t

germany following on. united kingdom, brittain is expected to follow the way that france and germany is going. it's expected to potentially follow the way that italy is going, potentially very high numbers of people catching the virus. so at a medical level this doesn't entirely make sense. brittain has 459 confirmed coronavirus cases at the moment. ireland, 43. yet lithuania, who is on the list now not to be allowed -- for citizens not to be allowed to travel to the united states has only 3 recorded cases. the open area where people can travel around, yes, is an issue that is going to potentially allow the virus to travel throughout europe, but what president trump has done here is take a far bigger and far bolder step than any of the european countries have taken and they're already concerned about the economic impacts to the nations there. will be additional concern about

france was just at the same level even at a higher level than germany. we are a country receiving the highest level of secondary movements. the currency we see is not functional. afghan families when they seek asylum in france on average they have asked twice in two other countries for asylum before. we have no capacity to under the common reading of what is asylum seeking and what the rules are for europe so it creates a lot of secondary movements. we also don't have a common approach to which country is providing social means, aid, you know, subsidies. social subsidies to people so we need to reorganize this. so france will and we are not a country refusing people on our soil. after that agreement -- the question by the ministry and lots of people came to france. i just want to remind people -- all of you the number of people that were, you know, on boats and then, you know, welcomed in europe is less than 2,000. the images we have give you the impression we have this many multiplied by 10 or 100, it's 2,000 people. so many came to france, but that's al

really lacking in recent weeks initially france and posed a ban on exporting certain goods from france germany also it's imposed a ban on import exporting things like surgical masks from germany both of those restrictions are now slightly being lifted and exports under control of the european union are to be allowed into other european union countries so one is trying to re start the internal exchange within the european union as i said earlier there are several countries that have closed their borders within the european union germany as well has instituted controls at certain borders and this is restricting the exchange of goods not only of goods such as medical supplies but of of goods of every day life they are. there are backups at all billboard a person within the european union some of them for 20 or 40 hours trying to get that internal trade going again as part of the reason why the external borders are being closed at the moment so i mean germany is right at the center at the heart of the european union how worried is jim indeed that goods medical and all the goods could dry up in thi

keep calm and carry on approach to the coronavirus is in sharp contrast to many other countries france germany and several other e.u. nations have banned large gatherings of people and as italians woke up to a countrywide lock down the tightest restrictions since the 2nd world war it was business as usual of britain's child and horse race meeting the event drawing tens of thousands of visitors the differences are stark in italy syria our football matches went ahead but without any fans while in the u.k.'s premier league stadiums were packed although players did have to forgo the traditional pre-game handshake the british government says it's putting science at the heart of all coronavirus planning it's resisted introducing checks at airports and banning public gatherings saying there's very little scientific evidence the moves will help instead the governments promoting a phased approach contain delay with search and mitigate we remain in the contained phase of the outbreak but watching what is happening around the world our scientists think containment is extremely unlikely to work on its own

do you mean complete country lockdowns for france, for germany?ell, i think every country must choose the better way. the most important thing is that, please, don't underestimate the problem of coronavirus. the lesson you can learn from our country is exactly that -- don't risk to make the same thing. for example, in the first days after day zero of emergency, a lot of italian cities organized events in the square, meeting exhibition, dinner, public dinner. why? to show, we not be afraid, we don't block our life. this is the current way against the charisma, against the tracks of the human life, but not with a virus. because if we organize a lot of events, paradoxally, we create opportunity for the virus to increase the spread. this is the problem. and so, my message is, i don't know if it's better, the solution for france -- yesterday president macron decided to block the schools. chancellor merkel created a different solution of -- prime minister johnson used very strong words today. i don't know what is the better solution. every prime ministe

germany's fault. virtually no one blamed england or france or poland. it was germany's fault. they are the ones who started this. there is a clear-cut aggressor in this war. this is not a case of both sides. germany is at fault. germany is the aggressor and germany and france are defending the victim. so we don't feel neutral about that. the two sides are not the same. there is significant difference here. once it was an actual war instead of a theoretical war, american opinion shifted a little bit. they still don't want to be involved in the war. they still want to avoid most of the mistakes that took place in the first world war. but they're not completely neutral. not really. they favor britain and france. they oppose nazi germany. but they don't want to fight. they don't want to be actively involved in the war. and, in fact, opposition to becoming actively involved in the war grew after the war began. if you look at the interviews dates for this poll, august 30, so a couple of days before the war actually began, a lot of people saw it coming but it was before the war began

but also critics that say this is far too late because the virus is in france and in germany on both sides of the border so what sense do these border controls make now bentley good to have reporting from the french german border thank you so much. and that's the situation in the french german border right now for more on the political situation here in germany let's bring in our chief political editor michelle michelle you know the response to this outbreak is snowballing here in germany we've seen sudden increases in restrictions in the capital berlin is the rest of germany following suit with a boss schools other institutions and so forth. well i wouldn't say that but it really is at the forefront of these closures we are expecting today to hear from bev area the say that directly borders all street where people are told to stay indoors already and that state of emergency might be declared there this against the backdrop that community elections only took place on sunday so we are seeing very regional reactions tough reactions as well and we have yet to see a full a nationwide loc
