Could be 41 percent higher than the government is reporting. A dire warning from the u. N. The pandemic could double the number of people around the world who are going to go hungry. And im peter sim to go to sport you a fur and its Member Associations holding a teleconference on tuesday to try and work out a way to finish the football season. Donald trump has declared that he will suspend all immigration to the u. S. To protect american lives and jobs from coronavirus which he calls the invisible enemy the move announced on twitter is in line with what hes trying to achieve throughout his presidency mr trump won the white house in part on a promise to build a wall on the Us Mexico Border his administration has since cracked down on both legal and illegal entries under an executive order and 2017 the president did ban travel from several muslim majority countries but was later modified after legal challenges and since february and march traveled to the u. S. From china parts of europe and the u. K. Has been blocked because of the coronavirus lets go live to our White House Correspondent kimberly hellcat whos standing by for us there kimberly good afternoon good morning immigration can he do it. Yeah for now the u. S. President can do it and he has been exercising a number of powers which many have accused the president of exercising almost an authoritarian style leader using some of the National Emergency declarations we expect that the u. S. President will sign this executive order today and its already being defended by some of the Top Administration officials Like National security advisor Robert Obrien whos calling this a temporary issue as you pointed out the president has already curbed travel from china from canada from mexico from europe as so theyre arguing that these changes are not really substantial immigration policy changes because there ministration official noted that right now visa processing has been halted as a result of the coronavirus measures put in place visa interview says citizenship ceremonies have been postponed refugee programs have been poz and even we know migrants that are caught crossing the southern border of the United States are immediately being expelled so what we do know 2 about this executive order is it is expected to carve out some exceptions for Migrant Workers who work on farms and also for immigrants who wish to come as Health Care Workers to help with the Coronavirus Crisis here in the United States but i can tell you this is not sitting well with democratic critics of the u. S. President they call this an authoritarian type move and it sort of taking advantage of the crisis to advance an anti immigrant agenda joe biden the Presumptive Democratic president ial nominee has called this hysteria xenophobia but again the white house is defending this temporary shutdown of essentially the Legal Immigration system in the United States pointing out that up to 46000000. 00 americans lost their jobs overnight and the president s responsibility is to americans 1st. And i think im right in saying kimberly weve got a deal now on that big funding package that we were discussing this time yesterday yeah that package yet another rescue package to help ordinary americans at least that was the goal last time when the 350000000000 was passed to help Small Businesses keep americans on their payroll during this time of shutdown but the problem is what we found is not only did the money run out but we learned that a lot of the money went to not your sort of ordinary mom and pop type business but more of some of the larger chains shake shack for example getting a 10000000. 00 loan this is a very large hamburger chain here in the United States theyre now giving that money back and what were being told is the deal now will make sure that the money goes to Small Businesses genuine Small Businesses this time around were hearing the deal between the white house and congress in the neighborhood of 450000000000. 00 the process of voting on capitol hill essentially supposed to be a rubber stamp just working out some of the fine tuned details should be done in the next few days but in all of this we are expecting that the beginning of that voting could take place sometime around 20 g. M. T. We know there are also be money for hospitals in there some 75000000000. 00 that is something democrats were insisting on which was a bit of a Sticking Point with the white house and republicans on capitol hill it appears now according to the top democrat in the u. S. Senate Chuck Schumer that deal has been made and they are moving forward with voting it signing it into a law alternately by the u. S. President to what you later kimberly thank you so much lets bring in lee and fresco hes an immigration attorney and the former Deputy Assistant attorney general in charge of immigration at the u. S. Department of justice he joins us from washington d. C. As well leon fresco welcome to the news hour here on aljazeera whats new about this trump rhetoric. Well whats new is that its a formalization of what it been an ad hoc process of closing embassies and consulates around the world and so the 1st step is to the extent of this order actually provide that they certain and actually close all embassies and consulates around the world that will be a new barrier to allowing people danger the United States that also needs to be withdrawn before people enter the United States of thats new and then whats not clear and what will need to wait to see the order about is will there actually be people in the United States who are not allowed to remove or change their visa as part of this order while that probably would be illegal its on clear whether that will still be attempt to be included in this order is there another dynamic here as well and it might be people who are just in the process of moving the lives to the United States for ever or for say 5 to 10 years they just about to get on a plane if they can get on a plane for say 3 months thats ok most people can absorb that kind of hit but if its going to be in place and in play for a year or 2 perhaps that makes it a whole different discussion. Well absolutely if people are told that the United States is now closed for business that is going to be a dramatic change and it wont just be the kind of change that the president is in visioning which would be what he views as sort of a direct one for one replacement Foreign Worker with American Worker many people who come on these court but work visas are actually coming to open companies and to create Foreign Investment in the United States and so if youre not doing this with a scalpel instead of a hammer youre actually causing more damage rather than less if you try to read mr trump and where hes coming from you know tweeting in the middle of the night in the past couple of hours hes clearly awake inside the white house saying hes got a 90 percent plus Approval Rating on facebook hes on facebook again yes he has with his base but to other people is he perhaps signaling that hes aware that his other polling figures are going so theyre not going north i mean hes been getting a lot of pressure from different areas of his party to use this crisis in order to end immigration into the United States and i think that because hes been getting this pressure and he hasnt been able to deliver other or unquote policy successes as part of the coronavirus i think this was simply just the lowest hanging fruit that he could try to amounts that could drive the both change the subject and make his base happy and so the problem is that will only last for a very short that bury period in terms of their satisfaction and at the end of the day hes still going to be judged with regard to his response to the coronavirus that demick them fresco good to talk to thanks for coming on thank you. Well the oil markets in turmoil today as investors worry about full Storage Facilities and collapsing demand with the pandemic leaving factories shops and aircraft and vehicles sitting idle brant crude thats the International Benchmark has fallen more than 19 percent its above 20. 00 now but it had been dipping below and it hasnt been this low since 2001 after the u. S. Futures market dive deep into negative territory for the 1st time on monday the lowest it went was minus 37. 00 per barrel or economic status or a bit ali well have more about what that could mean and what might happen next and our correspondent osama bin should be to see it in doha to discuss the likely impact on the gulf will get you 2 gentlemen in a 2nd 1st the latest with and together. At the beginning of 2020 a barrel of u. S. Crude oil cost around 60. 00 then came the coronavirus pandemic forcing states toward a lockdown and emptying streets closing businesses and shuttering factories across the nation demand dried up and the price fell to 18. 00 on monday things took a catastrophic turn for the 1st time in history u. S. Oil went into negative territory a doomsday scenario for the entire industry President Trump called the drop interesting despite the crash hitting the stock market were filling up our National Petroleum reserves through dziedzic you know the strategic reserves. And were looking to put as much as 75000000. 00 barrels into the reserves themselves that would top it out that would be the 1st time in a long time its been tapped out would get it for the right price capacity though both on land and sea in the United States is filling up since march stockpiles in some locations have risen by 50 percent in some places the price of fuel is now at a 10 year low demand is down there. Certainty when states will reopen and all this comes as a severe blow to President Donald Trump hes going to Great Lengths to protect the oil sector working with both russia and opec to reduce production now the entire Global Industry is an unknown president in crisis the Historic Deal to slash production by millions of barrels a day involved saudi arabia russia and other Oil Producing nations but experts say another global effort is needed were probably down a 1000000 from our normal 10000000 barrels down to about 9 that probably needs to come down some more but all the other Oil Producing countries need to do the same until the the economy recovers the plunging prices are driven by trading deadlines oil is traded on its future price contracts are due to expire on tuesday why is it virtually nonexistent some traders are now paying to get rid of oil instead of buying it but president says the industry will bounce back they get caught and there are a lot of people that are not too happy because they got caught so you take a look at it youll see its more of a financial thing than an Oil Situation but because you take i believe in a month or so and go a little bit its a 25. 00 and 28. 00 or so its largely a financial squeeze. If there is a Silver Lining those on the front lines of the coronavirus will pay less to fuel because a recovery in demand for oil is now dependent on a crisis that in many parts of the u. S. Is far from over and we gallacher aljazeera Miami Florida ok lets bring in economics editor of it ali joining us here on the news out of london a good to have you here on the program as ever so subzero never a good look and everyones waiting for the fundamentals to shift but the fundamentals on going to shift so what can happen next. Youre absolutely right there the fundamentals arent going to shift until there is serious effort to reduce the amount of oil there is in the markets currently theres a lot of then the 5000000 barrels every single day thats equivalent of the United States saudi arabia and russia pumping out or at current rates all 3 nations cant bring production to a whole job at night and it isnt a good idea to do that because basically they will damage the wells that the oil that she comes out of so this will require a Real International effort to get everybody back onboard the 9700000 barrels that was suggested before all of the production cuts by the saudis which was agreed to with russia and the other nations is just not enough and the United States really does need to step up and make some or to some production cuts to its. Gas producers now in the past they said were going to allow the markets to do to take care of this and the markets are taking care of this and this is the result the result is that we saw yesterday that. Traders were having to hand over 40 1000. 00 d to buyers to say please take these barrels of oil off our hands right now weve got no way to store them and today the price is down by you know the 4000. 00 by another 4. 00 today so today traders are saying we still cant find any buys for oil and here its 4500. 00 please take the 1000. 00 barrels which each contract is worth off our 0 hands. Thanks very much an answer some a binge of aid reporting on the gulf region out of doha this hour so some is there a glimmer of hope here and it might be the way that brant crude is stored because the storage system for brant is the Delivery System its the super tankers and they need to keep those oil wells drilling because if they dont keep them drilling they suffer. Well if there is that demeanor of hope its hidden in the gloom that weve seen theres been a bearish sentiment across the markets in the g. C. C. View seen from the sound will too the musket Exchange Bahrain and kuwait and everything in between the saudi and the u. A. E. Exchange in dubai dropping by more than 2. 3 percent the value of saudi aramco and the Worlds Largest producing come old producing company is is down by 1. 3 percent so it is a major doom and gloom scenario all do as you said that this a bloodbath that we saw last night with the barrel dropping to around 40 minus 40. 00 a barrel was in the its not the brant crude the benchmark for the World Markets but again that under underlying principles are the same there everybody wants to sell oil there are no buy is everywhere over there would store oil is full of theres talk about 160000000. 00 barrels on these giant super tankers offshore and thats after all of the Storage Capacity was filled on shore so it is going to have an impact as every oil blip has on these economies because they are single commodity economies hydrocarbons is what makes up a bulk of these economies especially here in the Gulf Cooperation Council and the cartel known as opec so not just ramifications for these economies in itself a physical restructuring of the International Monetary fund last week before this crisis warned of a contraction in the middle East North Africa region of 3. 3 percent of the Oil Producing a player in the middle east africa region is expected to have a dent of 250000000000. 00 plus in this year alone and that is the money that would be required to pay salaries to build infrastructure after the crew and the writers and demick many of these countries have launched various projects to make sure that small. Business is do not go under so it is going to be extremely difficult for these economies to balance themselves not just the rich ones but also this small economy such as iraq the 2nd largest producer of oil in opec nations which is not just fighting the crew independent but also on the front lines making sure that threats like eisel do not resurface osama thanks very much. Turning our attention to europe because the coronavirus death toll in England Wales is 41 percent higher than government figures indicates thats according to the u. K. s office for National Statistics the o. M. s said it recorded just over 13000 for the 10th but the governments death toll for those who died in hospital up until that date was around 9000 paul brennan joins us live from outside the house of commons in Central London paul why the disparity between the n. H. S. Figures the u. K. Government figures and the o n s stats as well. Well 1st of all the government figures only include those people who have been tested in hospitals and been positive for corona virus whereas the office for National Statistics figures go from death certificates which have been issued where coronavirus has been mentioned the cause or a contributory factor in the death there is also a lag between the ins figures coming out and the actual deaths taking place s
