Why is the United States ending a special relationship the benefits hong kong while still saying that youre with the prodemocracy protesters what this means is that the position of the United States is that well the special relationship was designed for hong kong as the secretary of state said earlier this week hong kong is no longer being controlled by hong kong its being controlled by china so the special relationship status that it was enjoying is really benefiting with the United States seizes its adversary and that is china so it is being revote what this means is that some of the special privileges that hong kong was enjoying whether its commercial trade whether its extradition treaties that is no longer going to be a separate category now hong kong all being seen as one and in addition in this announcement the rose garden the u.

The looters should not be allowed to drown out the voices of so many Peaceful Protesters they hurt so badly what is happening and its so bad for the state and for that great city so we are working very closely with the Justice Department were working with local Law Enforcement were working in wood everybody and where speaking with the family. And hopefully everything can be fairly. Taken care of Allison Herrera as a journalist from minneapolis whos joining us now live from there alison set the scene for us and tell us where you are what youre seeing around you. Well right now i am about im probably about about a block away from the Police Station that was burned last night your correspondent talked about burning shops and buildings well directly right behind me is some of those shops and buildings one of which was an indigenous led Youth Organization right now there is. A family saying a prayer and singing a song in dakota and the leader of that organization the head of that organization is speaking to crowds theres probably about a couple 100 people here right now behind me theres also a National Guard presence theres also Minnesota State troopers are out i spoke to a couple of people who said to me that you couldnt one of whom said to me hes not really sure that the arrest and the charging of a person gets used meet their degree murder and manslaughter of Derek Sheldon is going to quell any of these protests and riots which was going to be my next question to you but let me ask you about were hearing any developments with the other 3 Police Officers whove been involved with this incident with george floyd i have not heard of them being arrested or charged at this point just to show that and in terms of reports off a curfew being put in place in minneapolis for friday and saturday are these reports verified and confirmed yes we have a curfew tonight from 8 pm to 6 am tomorrow and. People react i mean how are people reacting to that news. Well i asked some of the gentleman over here and they said that they dont think that people are going to respect that so but given the National Guard presence im not sure i just i just dont know whats going to happen so well see describe the mood of the people alison youve been there covering the story for us i mean give us a sense of the anger and why people are so angry. Well a young man i spoke with taylor he said that he actually i asked him if he felt unsafe in the crowd and you know hed been out demonstrating and protesting and he said he actually feels safer with a crowd of in those crowds and he does confronting police so i think the anger is so palpable in this community its its palpable when you might walk up to this crowd i mean theyre still smoke. You know people i think you know this group behind me theyre asking for peace and theyre saying that you know we want this city to heal because its not just they feel that its not just to violence thats directed towards africanamericans but its also my own structure that Indigenous People and other people of color in this city and so what youre seeing right now is you know decades i think of that of that feeling and decades of anger coming out onto the streets all right Alison Herrera let you know for now thank you for that update from minneapolis thank you so much now Police Across the u.

Second i want to say. And weve got to change this weve got to break these barriers in these walls and weve got to do what we can as Police Officers the Bigger Picture is how the killing of freud is going to complicate police work throughout america already many black communities are distrustful of Law Enforcement this is only going to make it worse when you see. What should be a routine apprehension become a de facto execution it is it is experience to watch. And former new York Police Detective keep taylor says there are systematic issues of race that need to be addressed makes it more difficult for officers interests simply trying to do their job. The fact that these. Negative incidents that occur do get up to size really brings to the forefront how important it is to address the inequities that occur in our criminal Justice System an incident that has left many Police Officers just as outraged as the people they are sworn to serve and protect many wanting answers and justice gabriels on Doe Al Jazeera new york meanwhile large crowds of protesters are gathering in new york for the death of george lloyd youre looking at live pictures right demonstrators are alice theyve come together in foley square and well as well as union square dozens have been arrested for blocking traffic as well as this orderly conduct according to police this is the latest in a string of protests across the country following floyds death his death has sparked nationwide outrage from protesters accusing police of brutality against black people.

Madrid. Authorities in towns are already left behind by Economic Growth in the u. K. Are worried they wont cope with the end of the pandemic brings more cuts unemployment lower Life Expectancy and a lack of opportunity already plague much of North Eastern england thats why the economic response could make or break some cities as lawrence lee reports from middlesborough. What will things be like when its all over for rich places maybe not so bad but poor communities have a right to be worried the post industrial landscape of teesside in northeastern england tells a story of joblessness poor life chances and the virus the high mortality rates if the British Government tries to pay off its huge debt through austerity and they cant begin to imagine how much worse things will get its almost too difficult to comprehend how we would go about doing that because were i think were as low as we can get in terms of the the cooks that weve made our track on even start to think about how we would make more coats firsthand experiences of all this show a town already on the age we need to live is vital supplies to 17 people with Underlying Health conditions and therefore most at risk in this tiny house of for Asylum Seekers including an elderly woman from sierra leone who has diabetes given the things binny is seen any more cuts to services would be catastrophic but there was a case right here in memphis right centile middles for someone who did not eat for 17 days 17 for 17 days so she has been going over food banks she saw the food banks were closed and even though she was fully entitled as a citizen but she was look at you know all that it looked and she was almost going to die disease thrives in poverty the economic response to the Health Care Crisis will make or break places like this. Just before all this started the new British Government swept to power on a promise of what it called levelling up plowing money into the forgotten english northern towns but not only has covered 19 put all of that on ice its also led to a new enormous National Debt a debt which towns like middlesborough are in no position whatsoever to help a back. Story here could be that of any port town in any country which has taken on massive debt nationally or globally that that will happen we will lose generations we will lose businesses people will lose hope hope the health and social implications will be colossal that it isnt an option borrowing at these new affordable rates prudently and spending intelligently is the only solution to this. So many of the problems here pretaped said the virus but maybe the Health Care Crisis could have a Silver Lining all through all better jobs stronger communities surely mean healthier people largely aljazeera middlesborough.
