Migrants but nowhere left to go after a massive Fire Destroys the morea camp only the blood spots. Hello im terry martin good to have you with us u. S. President donald trump is under fire again for his handling of the corona Virus Outbreak following an explosive new book in it veteran Journalist Bob Woodward says trump deliberately downplayed the danger posed by the virus in the 1st weeks of the pandemic at a News Conference the president defended his handling of the crisis trump said he was not lying to the public but that he did not want to cause panic more than 189000 americans have died from the virus so far country and one people now on the campaign trail in the battleground state of michigan. Pratik president ial candidate joe biden harshly criticized all trump referring to the new revelations he knew how deadly it was it was more its more deadly than the flu he knew and purposely played it down worse he lied to the American People he knowingly and willingly lied about the threat it posed to the country for months. He had the information he knew how dangerous it was and while this deadly disease ripped through our nation he failed to do its job on purpose it was a life and death betrayal of the American People. Or earlier respect for a washington correspondent of a quote hot sun and asked her what impact these new revelations might have at the ballot box. Well nationally the most recent poll shows biden leading when it comes to who americans think would handle the pandemic better between him and trump and in recent days we have to remember trump has also been facing backlash for his alleged comments insulting Fallen Soldiers and wounded veterans and among military voters biden leads there too and in this instance by 4 Percentage Points and again we have to remember these polls were conducted before these stories came to light so how much will this actually move the needle what kind of impact will this have and as we all know there have been other ok jps where it seemed certain that it was all over for trump but he has kept his neck above water all along and so there will surely be polls in the coming weeks trying to pinpoint if he has lost any kind of support given these reports but we may not truly know until november. So you look at some of the latest developments in the coronavirus pandemic the global death toll from the corona virus pandemic has now passed 900000 the United States remains the worlds worst affected country with deaths succeeding 190000 now however india continues to see a rapid rise in cases frances copas hospitalizations have served to a one month high of more than 5000. 00 disease is spreading at the fastest pace in friends since it emerged and Germanys Foreign Ministry is advising against traveling to several cities including prague geneva and dubrovnik due to local spikes in infections. Thousands of migrants have spent a 2nd night without shelter after a fire ripped through the morea facility on the greek on less balls a fresh fire broke out on wednesday night in parts of the camp that had survived the 1st blaze local officials suspect arson and say it may have been a protest against a coronavirus lockdown imposed earlier this week you Officials Say the migrants fate must be made a top priority. Maurya lies in ruins it was a temporary home for over 12000 migrants stuck on the greek island of lesbos. Human Rights Groups had long deplored conditions in the overcrowded camp which was operating at 4 times its intended capacity. Now politicians from around europe are calling on the blocks members to take action. These are horrible pictures that we see and what has happened in. I think is important now because we dont leave greece alone with this just today we have already offered the greek government every support we can the most important right now to protect people and to give them immediate shelter thanks to a Quick Reaction from the stuff in the compound from the greek police and fire brigade we had no. People in hospital and of course now the focus is to give shelter for all these people tonight. The fire was sparked overnight several shots went up in flames around the camp before the entire compound began to burn. Winds reaching up to 70 Kilometers Per Hour fanned the flames forcing thousands to flee. Fear out there is pretty far for. The inhabitants headed to nearby hills and woods others began walking to the islands capital might only need. Right police were deployed along the roads amid fears that the camps residents might spread the coronavirus across the island. Last week more he was placed under lockdown after 35 cases were detected in the camp. As day broke some residents returned to search for belongings among the remains of the fire has been put out but over 12000 migrants could now be homeless once more in their lives they have nowhere to go. So whats next for moria is a question many have been posing for years. And the answer from authorities has now become ever more urgent. Here in Germany Program fiji groups have called for nationwide protests in support of the refugees from the morea camp in berlin at least 3000 people joined a spontaneous demonstration which saw activists march through the citys government district activists say several german states would be willing to offer shelter to some of the refugees from moria however the German Federal government has so far refused to accept any of mine. Joining us now is dean hes based in here in berlin and organizes the ngo in moria called Team Humanity is call eeks were on the ground when the fire broke out you work with the people who were in the morea camp whats their situation now how are they doing. So all of the on the streets. We have a Community Center 150 meters away from where you are and we have around 500 people in our outside our center most of there if you g. s where they were blocked by the police so they are sheltering outside on the streets but all blanket with and even water this is the situation right now this morning 12000 people the 12000 people sheltering there and morea are now homeless so whats going to happen to them what are the plans. The greek government doesnt have a plan and they need help from the whole europe they didnt have a plan if you years ago many fires before and we told them look this will have. Nothing out of the didnt even have an evacuation plan when the fires there was no government so. There was nobody there to help them so it was only the n. G. O. S that was actually going inside while the fire was taking the if you just ot. So there was only the question plan so they dont have a plan and still they dont they dont know what theyre going to do bill is the nerd you want to put them in a military camp this is the same thing you put him in another camp this is not the solution. The German Foreign minister and other politicians in europe say they will put moria high on their political agenda what do you think that will translate into what sort of action would you like to see allowed to see that europe take responsibility and they will start seeking families of these 1st oh from the hill that is living in for many years each country can take thousands of refugees and give them a home you know these refugees are like me and you you know theyre humans they deserve a safe place to be did you serve to be treated like humans and the greek government doesnt do that and europe must act right now this illusion is not putting them in another camp you just moving the problem to another place. With regard to. Those with regard to the fire itself the greek Authorities Say that some of the migrants themselves may have started it why do you think they might do that. Youve been living you know in the camp in the refugee camp for so long. And when he hears that they will shut it down because they said they will goes it make it like a jail people getting crazy and you have all kinds of people there you know we cannot judge you on your family children those even though what happens so you have some people that started the fire and then you have 12000 people running they dont know why they want to do. So of course people are frustrated people are tired of people going to living in this conditions imagine living in a you know in a sorts and you know went there with your children without he there will be anything and the government they know they got the money from the European Union but then the used it on there is the g. s and the money gun and no on the responsibility for a desperate situation there and.
