Oldest person and her battle with corona virus. Welcome to the Program President donald trump says the u. S. Is on track to defeat coronavirus even as it clocks up another grim figure more than 80000. 00 people have now died from cave at 19 in the worst affected country in the world alan fischer has more from washington d. C. With 2 white house staff testing positive for corona virus with senior members of his task force self isolating the president put on a bill is displayed in the rose garden of the white house we have met the moment and we have prevailed americans do whatever it takes to find solutions pioneer breakthroughs and harness the energies we need to achieve a total victory we will defeat this horrible enemy we will revive our economy and we will transition into great this. Thats a phrase youre going to hear a lot because thats whats going to happen asked if he was declaring Mission Accomplished the president clarified he was talking about testing claiming the u. S. Had no tested more people than any other country the white house has also told staff to wear masks while in and around the building a dramatic shift in policy senior figures attending the briefing did so the president did not in new york the governor insisted the state was through the wash the divider so break saying it was on the other side of the mountain but with more than half of all american deaths sees a new rush to abandon the lot dont measures some states are opening even though they havent met the c. D. C. Guidelines which i dont even know how that happens federal government says here the c. D. C. Guidelines which are basic Health Guidelines some states dont meet those guidelines and theyre opening anyway in florida the city of nichols was forced to shut down its beaches just 2 weeks after declaring them open people arent following social distancing guidelines i hate to say the base is closed down but i can see a very good reason for it as the president was speaking the number of dead in the u. S. Past the 80000 mark he says some democratic led states are moving quickly enough to open up alleging without evidence a prolonged economic shutdown is claiming even more lives i want our country open to i want it up and safely but i want it open dont forget people are dying the other out recent opinion polls suggest the majority of us citizens are concerned states will reopen too quickly and the 2nd break will fall on fischer aljazeera washington will join his News ConferencePresident Trump also said hes not in favor of reopen negotiations on phase one of a trade deal with china the agreement was reached fairly the share of to successive rounds of negotiations under the deal beijing pledged to buy at least 200000000000. 00 of additional u. S. Goods and services for 2 years while washington rolled back tariffs on chinese goods but Chinese Media reporting that beijing would like to change it. China would like to reopen negotiations on the trade deal to make the term more favorable to them is this something youd be interested in doing no not at all not even a little bit no im not in just that we signed a deal i heard that too if theyd like to reopen the trade talk to make it a better deal for them china has been taken advantage of the United States for many many years for decades because we had people at this position right here where im standing sitting right in that office the oval office that allowed that to happen im not interested in that lets see if they live up to the deal that they signed. Robert skoal to as a Senior International economist at the Economic Policy institute he says china may find it difficult to live up to its commitments under the trade deal and the aftermath of the pandemic to china is going to find it problematic to increase purchases of u. S. Goods by 200000000000. 00 over the next 2 years thats. Going to be difficult in any case but now with the Global Economy collapse. Theres just not evidence as communities demand in china to purchase that many u. S. Goods and they certainly dont want to do anything abers to person and trump either they resent all of his threats and cajoling hes practiced throughout his administration but one thing he has done thats been moderately effective munch on china trade is to impose tariffs on about half of what we import import theyve been costly but theyve got some impact on trade the larger problem is this deal failed to address the fundamental causes of the growing u. S. Trade deficit with china which is a Serious Problems its cost us millions of jobs new us chinas massive subsidies massive excess capacity and its decades of currency manipulation of the the root causes and those are the things that need to be addressed and President Trump has failed to do that. Well singapore has begun to ease its partial lockdown after 2 months of restrictions some businesses including her dresses and pet stores are now open and next week small groups of students will be allowed to return to school the Health Ministry says the gradual lifting of the rules is to avoid a 2nd wave of infections of the nearly 24000. 00 confirmed cases rose lee has more from kuala lumpur singapore is taking tentative steps to reopen its economy home based businesses and barber shops have been allowed to reopen but dine in services and restaurants are still not allowed and most people will still have to continue working from home now it is true that singapore has reported a high number of corona virus cases the vast majority who are around 85 percent are Migrant Workers living in dormitories the Health Minister says the number of new cases in the Wider Community has been in decline especially since stricter measures were put in place the 3rd in the 3rd week of april now the w. H. O. Has listed 6 conditions for countries that are looking to ease restrictions and this includes the ability to detect tests trace and isolate and treat coronavirus patients and Singapore Says it intends to ramp up testing to conduct as many as 40000 tests a day and its also building more facilities to isolate and treat coronavirus patients but of course as with many other countries around the world thats very much a sense that this is also driven by the economy the central bank has 4 cars that growth will shrink between one and 4 percent of this year they condiments are predicting that job losses is going to be of historic proportions this year and the central bank has also forecast that singapore is expected to suffer its worst recession ever the World Health Organization is urging vigilance says countries restart their economies it says they must be ready to reintroduce restrictions if necessary.

S. Singing measures while staying on the continent another european country cautiously ending its lockdown is france but many restrictions remain in place particularly in paris as Natasha Butler reports the capital is far from resuming normal service. Back to work for some people in france but not quite back to normal in the paris metro staff handed out masks that are now obligatory on public transport and distributed hand sanitizing gel but with a large number of people commuting so shoot distancing was clearly impossible. 20 minutes for a train some people were not Wearing Masks and at my station in the suburbs stores were not handing out here. Distance with so many people but. Normally in metro were not confined spaces its just a shame we were advised to wear masks when the 1st got on the wires began in france because maybe because of our staying home after 2 months of Strict Lockdown the french government has lifted some restrictions and. Some businesses to resume work as people began to move around paris again traffic returned to the citys famous new and shops welcomed customers many of the shops on this street are open even though its not busy there are clearly people out and about enjoying a little bit of freedom but the government says that unless people remain vigilant it could consider reimposing some restrictions see the use of if the virus begins increasing rapidly again with no control and risking the health of the french people we would be forced to impose confinement measures again either in certain territories or differentiated as we did initially or even more widely if the population were in danger although some restrictions have been lifted many remain restaurants cafes sports and cultural venues a still shot as well as some parks many schools ready to open the government says that mosques are now easily available i am testing is widespread but with no Coronavirus Vaccine yet they must rely on peoples ability and will to helping an end to the Health Emergency natasha bottler aljazeera paris.
