Im sumi so much kind of thanks for joining us at a dramatic congressional hearing the brother of george floyd has called on lawmakers to make sure he did not die in vain floyds killing in Police Custody ignited protests across america and around the globe the play by felonious floyd comes as the man. To reform policing and stop africanamericans dying from Excessive Force by white Police Officers. The day after his brother george was laid to rest in houston texas. Alone as floyd was in washington d. C. In an emotional testimony he called on lawmakers to ensure that his brother did not die in vain when you watch your big brother who you looked up to your whole entire life da da big a boys mom im tired im tired of pain pain you feel when you watch Something Like that people of all backgrounds genders and races have come together to demand change on it him on to george and make the necessary changes then make the Law Enforcement the solution and not the problem in minneapolis where george floyd was killed the police chief is promising change he says hell withdraw from contract negotiations with the police union to push for reform my plan to bring in subject matter experience and advisors to conduct a thorough review of how the contract can be restructured to provide Greater Community transparency. And more flexibility for true reform. But many protesters believe true reform can only come through radical change. Defund the police has become a rallying cry protestors want to cut funding for the police in favor of other Community Based projects. Police have also come under fire for using heavy handed tactics against protesters after floyds death and there have been dozens of complaints of Police Targeting reporters in one such Incident Police fired rubber bullets a d w Stefan Siemens and crew. That is. The phrase. Perth. Im sure you are on the murder over there are. The u. S. Has promised to investigate the allegations. And other have been concerns from some countries of their reporters having been treated inappropriately here you should know and those countries should know we will we will handle them in a completely appropriate way George Floyds killing has put police in the u. S. Under intense scrutiny floyd supporters hope that his death may finally lead to real change. Well civil Rights Groups are also pushing big business toward self scrutiny on braces that amazon has announced it is Banning Police from using its facial Recognition Program for the next year the company did not specify why it took the action now but the Tech Technology has been shown to misidentify people with darker skin the decision comes as there have been growing calls for Police Reform in the wake of the Police Killing of george floyd amazons facial Recognition Technology was the post to help police catch suspects instead the program has been rife with issues like amazon launch recognition and 2016 aimed at businesses hoping to bulk up their search capabilities. But it was quickly adopted by Law Enforcement agencies around the United States police said the Program Allows them to quickly and more accurately identify suspects in crimes researchers warn the companys algorithms harbor dangerous racial biases a 21000 study from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Found that the algorithm misidentified darker skinned women 31 percent of the time activist researchers and even the companys shareholders have repeatedly urged the company to stop selling recognition of police those calls have grown louder after the death of george floyd sparked a global backlash to Police Tactics amazon tuesday vowed to the pressure and said it would halt sales to Law Enforcement we hope this one year moratorium might give congress enough time to implement appropriate rules a statement on the companys website read. Tim across the u. S. House of representatives have already introduced a bill that would ban federal Law Enforcement from using facial Recognition Technology amazon for its part has welcomed the move. Chelsea delaney from business is with us for more on the story tell us whats happening here why is this software mis identifying people well this is a much broader problem with algorithms so at the start a lot of people hoped that algorithms would really remove the human bias and what weve seen is really the opposite its really amplifying and making it worse for a lot of technologies so an algorithm is really only as good as the data you feed it used to train and what were seeing with this amazon facial Recognition Technology is that it seems to have been used and trained mostly on white male faces so it only has that data to go off and thats why its really miss identifying particularly women of darker skin tones and it doesnt seem to have a good read on those at all so what is the hope here then for the next year that congress can somehow put together some sort of Legal Framework to regulate this type of software thats really what amazon is hoping happens they are sort of stepping out of this market for the next year theyre not entirely taking this this technology off the market its still going to be used for example for things like Human Trafficking i. B. M. Has also said its going to stop selling the software to. To Law Enforcement but what amazon is saying is that they this really needs to be a nationwide effort it needs to be taken at a lawmakers stance because this is going to remain a problem if its not taken care of if theres not a law to really regulate this that its going to really continue to be a problem because there are a lot of other companies that are still going to be offering this technology to Police Departments and were also seeing this as a much bigger concern for for the United States this is not to. The problem with Police Forces now its also really a bigger question of mass surveillance tapes and what really happens if these technologies continue to proliferate so this is definitely part of a much broader discussion about what how algorithms and facial Recognition Technology should be used in the United States because it does pose not only problems for minority communities but also for the broader country in terms of things like privacy rights. Delineate reporting on the story for us thank you very much. Now the white house has asked japan to significantly increase its contribution to maintaining American Forces the u. S. Has guaranteed japans defense since the end of world war 2 it has more than 50000. 00 personnel stationed at facilities across the country washington puts the price tag at some 5700000000. 00 much of which is already paid for by japan the cost sharing agreement is due to be renegotiated next year japan is already spending more on defense but on its own sources. Soldiers practice landing unfabulous vehicles in a picturesque bay on japan south coast drive out open the hatch claims the hatch and then head back to the beach its as if they were planning to set off a new sure some time soon and perhaps they are but the officer in command is not allowed to talk to us about that. For the body of a scary its important to train the soldiers one is the driver ones the hounds man stories its not always easy to make a team out of that i got that for you 2 on the guys run up and. According to its constitution japan isnt supposed to have an army and many wanted to stay that way. Its a we dont want to pant a fighter most all over the world but i dont america thats why were against the drills. Even so turkey seems to be preparing to enter the military world stage the defense minister recently deployed this destroyer to the gulf of amman in an interview he says is a completely harmless mission takano is aware of his own power he wants to become Prime Minister would you ban like to play a more active role military role on the world stage we believe are sending our destroyer to the region to get enough information to secure the past safes passage or japanese or japan related ships are important for us so thats why we sending it were not part of. American initiative and or european or you run union issued every its strictly on our all isnt that risky i mean there could be sell kind of quietly and you are right and why should we be in it but if everythings fine why you need to wash it in the region what we need to get the information to secure the safe passage or bar or tankers. Or other ships so were sending them for information gathering whats wrong with it. Just a recognizance mission. Some people see it differently. Us asian relations expert Glenn Fukushima for example finds the idea amusing well that i think as defense minister thats what he had to say you know just as when koizumi was asked in the diet. Is it not dangerous for the salt offense force to be in combat zones he said well to soak up some sources there by definition that is not a combat zone. That was his answer. Behind the scenes of u. S. Japanese military relations the mood is less easygoing than here American Military units stationed has tell me trying to aid missions with the japanese earthquake for example but since washington has demanded much more money from japan for u. S. Troops tensions have risen considerably it is actually cheaper to have a marine stationed in japan than to have them in san diego so if we pay. Then they will become sort of mercenary and i dont think you are suppose it will like to do that. Posh words especially coming from an otherwise normal japan is a possible future government leader seeking to expand his influence in a big way insiders say there is support for this in the middle in policy but less so amongst the japanese people. Lets check in now on some other stories from around the world a far right in the region that has been jailed for 21 years for attempting to kill worshipers in a shooting spree at a mosque and for the racially motivated murder of his chinese born stepsister the court rejected a plea from the defense to declare the perpetrator insane and unfit to stand trial. Russia has opened a criminal case against the mayor of the arctic city of no real scope for his handling of a major fuel spill of a spill of more than 21000 tons of fuel happened after a fuel reservoir collapsed last month at a power plant Response Teams say it will take years to clean up. And the number of corona virus cases recorded in the u. S. Has topped 2000000 Johns Hopkins University Says new infections are on the rise in at least 19 states the u. S. Has more cases than any other country in the world. Says it employs 26000 more people than are needed hinting at possible job cuts the german carrier has been massively affected by the coronavirus pandemic and has just received a multibillion euro rescue package from the German Government to stay afloat meanwhile of tons of pilots have offered to take a 45 percent pay cut to help alleviate the situation and to protect jobs. For more of the story we can speak to. The executive director of the Cabin Crew Union nicole i thank you for joining us so we just heard there these are very tough times for it says it employs 26000 more people than are needed how worried are you that those jobs are going to be cut. There is a logical reason joe cox on 26000. 00 people in total is a large amount we are now looking forward to negotiating on how we could do this without any dismissals this will be hard but the cabin crew already sounds as if the pilots didnt and that we are willing to help you have tons and as long as there are no no cuts. Including dismissals and we had negotiated this the next 10 days and we are hopefully coming to a good conclusion for the company and for the people as you said the pilots have said theyre offering to take a pay cut of 45 percent to help lufthansa get through this crisis could the cabin crew did the same thing. Not exactly the same thing of course is the wages of cabin crew as you know its not large enough to have a cup like this but there are things like productivity like arch im working like temporary leave willingly so these are things we could do become a range bunch of course people need a job guarantee off towards the kind of a cots on the one side and dismissals next year on the other side thats not possible and this will be hard negotiations i want to ask you about the long term prospects for the tata are you worried that this Company Might not survive this crisis. I do not think so alicia transit is very much affected because the long haul flights are very important full of chance on long haul flights will not be able as easy as short whole within europe for example so there will be a long crisis i think but im not worried about whats going to look sometimes a very strong and it has employees around the throat you please that are willing to help the company and we are hoping the management of top management finds out that its better to go on with their employees or use them against them and im. Sure this will work out and often there will be strong off the crisis whenever that maybe. Some the Cabin Crew Union will fall thank you very much for joining us. Thank you very much that pandemic lockdowns have left and many families separated that time apart is proving extremely painful for couples desperate to see their children whove been born to surrogate mothers and ukraine is one of the few countries in the world where circusy is affordable and easy to arrange some families have endured long waits to be united with their newborns strand at their our correspondent mcconnell and that one such family. One month and 3 days late but at least theyre together. And your old us have traveled more than 10000 kilometers by car through continent in lockdown to finally meet their daughter. She still has to get used to us she doesnt know who we are. Their daughter spent her 1st month with a care at an apartment her parents only able to see her on a screen. In the way you know hes so sad we were crying just seeing her pictures and unable to do anything for her you just feel so helpless while you can do is wait. As their daughters birth came and went and with no into lockdown in sight all people are in general those could do was scour the ukrainian press with the help of a translation app on the lookout for some sign of hope neither the Spanish Government nor the Ukrainian Embassy could help when they read that ukraines human rights on boats women had promised to help parents into the country and others jumped in their car to drive the 3600 kilometers from their home in madrid to kiev. And the 1st trip was a live in the dark we didnt know what wed encounter at the borders on route they received a long hoped for permission to enter ukraine yeah i cried when he received this i didnt think a piece of paper could make this happy. But it wasnt enough and he was not the czechs and were just 500 kilometers from kiev then they told us no we just couldnt take it anymore they were missing just one document enough for them to be turned back at the Ukrainian Border returning home to madrid was the only option without their baby week later they were back at the ukrainian frontier after 7000 kilometer round trip to madrid and back this time with the right documents and they were finally allowed into the country other parents have been less fortunate separated from their children by even greater distances and still unable to enter ukraine how many babies are still without their parents no one can say with any confidence. That you know weve lost months of our daughters life. That was super important yes. It was actually a month or 3 days to leave the felt like a year spanish must sound strange to her she doesnt want to sleep she just wants to listen to us. And now shes only sleep. Well. This journey to becoming a family like any other is not yet over to register their daughters birth in spain theyll probably still have to go to court in spain as in many other European Countries surrogacy is a legal gray zone not the legal or illegal immigrant of ours lockdown which is the 1st of many obstacles on that path. That report from day to Nick Connelly and he joins us now from kiev with more hi nick do you have any idea how many babies are still in limbo because of the lockdown. Thats the thing assuming this has really exposed grey area in all senses surrogacy is here in ukraine it is legal but most of it is off the radar off the radar of the authorities here in ukraine the human rights woman here in ukraine yes they said that about 100 families have been in touch with her asking for special permission to enter the country but experts think that is just the tip of the iceberg of the surrogacy agencies are actually advising their clients to keep quiet and wait for travel restrictions to end yesterday there was an extraordinary event organized by one of the agencies that has decided to go for maximum publice its where they handed over children with flags and anthems played but most agencies have been keeping quiet i think supports remember here the couple we spoke to had missed a month of their life that many have missed a lot more than that if your child is born in march or april by the time you get to ukraine 2 or 3 months past its all some chinese parents whose children were born here earlier in the have missed even more so this really is an extraordinary situation and one where theres no real part of the next few weeks to come at least and how are these babies being cared for in the meantime. Well some of the pictures that went around the world of those babies together in a hotel room that is essentially a stunt that is something organized by one of the big a disease that has decided to go for. Most children are spending their time with cameras with nurses in private apartments so that is the norm that was the case for the child the family we spoke to i think is important just to really get a sense of how big this phenomenon is ukraines government didnt even have figures about how many children were born surrogates until. They estimate about 1500. 00 children born surrogates last year but we again believe that is just the beginning of the real truth is that the true figure is much higher and this is a truly global phenomenon and you have parents from argentina from saudi arabia from china not just europe and corona virus has really exposed quite how connected ukraine and the rest of the world as long as it was business as usual we didnt really have a sense for how big this phenomena was as the borders were closed suddenly you had families coming out going public willing to speak publicly about this in the hope of getting see their kids suna and this is really another example of how crooners really exposing how globalization works. Only reporting for us thank you so much. Just for its now in the top Spanish Soccer League returns to action tonight for the 1st time since a coronavirus began to hit the country 3 months ago has followed Germanys Bundesliga and banning fans and instituting a strict hygiene protocol but unlike germany spains title race could be one of the most exciting in years.
