Back on the streets in mali demanding the president steps down the protests resume after the mediation failed and entire villages are under water with millions affected by the worst flooding to hit china and decades. The fight against taking a small but potentially significant step in the past few hours the lancet medical journals published results from scientists at Oxford University have been conducting early d human testing for a Coronavirus Vaccine and the results are encouraging and found their vaccine did not cause any serious side effects or produced a strong immune response from oxford here is paul brennan. It is early on about the 1st 56. 00 days all of the phase one trial that took place end of april beginning of may involving 1077. 00 participants that said the results of that early testing and early study was that it is safe this vaccine this potential vaccine that they produced it induces an immune reaction which is good it in 3 uses 2 types of immune reaction that is antibodies and t. Cells the reaction is strong and in a subgroup study of 10 participants which is yes that the response is maybe Even Stronger after a 2nd dose now the ideal vaccine needs to be effective after just wanted to do says it needs to be good for. The elderly people and target participants such as people with existing Health Conditions it also needs to be effective for a period of longer than 6 months and at this stage its too early to say whether or not this vaccine actually meets those kind of criteria what hasnt happened here is the pitot participants have not been exposed to corona virus so what we have in brazil and in south africa is those vaccinated people will be asked exposed to corona virus as part of the Wider Population the high prevalence of to run a virus in those 2 countries and then the study will really look at exactly how their bodies react having been given the vaccine once they are exposed to corona virus its detailed its interesting its very very early but its very very hopeful. On to other news and 27. 00 European Union leaders are back in a huddle in brussels trying to hammer out that coronavirus economic Recovery Plan the e. U. Summit is now into its 4th day was only supposed to be 2 after negotiations over the 857000000000. 00 package it repeated deadlocks members cant seem to agree on how those funds are to be distributed for countries that need them the most. To not meet a spirit of compromise and ambition is to take the risk of returning to hard times and for some who are concerned about this in the end it may end up costing us even more so i will continue to fight on these subjects in particular with german chancellor Angela Merkel since as you know weve put together a lot over the past days and nights more with the now in paris so im not going to ask you natasha about the chances of a breakthrough because i think thats the question i dont think anyone can answer that now tell me more about president macros position and the other major leaders and what they are talking about where to from here. Well i can tell you the french president certainly hopes for a breakthrough and i imagine all 27 leaders are probably hoping to be able to go home and some point now the french president aligned with the german chancellor Angela Merkel have really been pushing for the e. U. 27. 00 to back this recovery fun plan on the table is 860. 00 a 1000000000. 00 plan thats going to help European Unions economies recover from the coronavirus pandemic pandemic of course which is still very much among us now what about all michael says is this isnt just a question of helping those economies recover now even though thats of course extremely essential but this is a question of the European Union proving that it has a value and worth as well because the macro is saying unless the e. U. Comes together cooperates show solidarity and unity at a time of an Unprecedented Health crisis and helps we can Member States at this time then some people in the European Union will just simply look at the you go whats the point if the e. U. Cant help us now whats the point of having the European Union at all that could feel anti e. U. Sentiment and that could lead a man or bank or says to the disintegration of the e. U. In the future so of course that is something that he wishes to avoid hes been putting it in this wider Historical Context is very important to know that of course there is a real urgency now for help because were seeing a resurgence of some coronavirus cases pockets of europe where 2nd lock downs are being put in place in spain in italy in germany here in france more so now obligatory indoors in Public Places and that is because were seeing a resurgence of cases here as well so there isnt an urgency now but as michael says theres no chance in the future the thing is kantian merkel convince those who are against such a big fond of those who say how will this money be distributed who are. Against our shared debt who want any money given to be given with conditions so for example a member state would receive a growing taller loan but only with conditions that it would for example reform right so a lot more at stake than just this Recovery Fund isnt there natasha but with the latest from paris thank you by the British Government is suspending its extradition treaty with hong kong and blocking arms sales this is in response to beijings new National Security law foreign secretary dominic robb described the measures as reasonable and proportionate earlier this month china imposed a sweeping legislation which outlaws what it considers secession subversion terrorism and collusion with Foreign Forces leave barker is following developments from outside parliament in london not surprising that the u. K. Chooses to acts funny even because of its long history with hong kong. Yes a long history of course hong kong was a former british colony and britain has vested interests particularly the Financial Sector in hong kong so its been watching very closely as what many view as being beijings creeping an exception of hong kong over the years beijing doesnt see it like that it sees it as having a legitimate jurisdiction over hong kong but what the British Government has done is hit back at beijings new security law by making 3. Pieces of legislation firstly to extend a ban on the sale of weapons that exist between the u. K. And Mainland China to hong kong including equipment that could be used to donate rob for internal repression and also to extend they to to end rather the extradition treaty the distances to the 30 years between the u. K. And hong kong the theory is that if you extradite somebody from the u. K. To hong kong they could end up being transferred to Mainland China where they could face a very different legal system if for instance your charge were political subversion you could end up spending life behind bars also the British Government has reiterated that it will open up immigration channels for up to 3000000 hong kong citizens to be able to come and live and work here in the u. K. To seek refuge in britain when it comes to the extradition law and the changes that he is warts and foreign secretary have to say. Im particularly concerned about articles 55 to 59 that we know which give Mainland China chinese authorities the ability to assume jurisdiction over certain cases and to try these cases in mainland chinese courts. Also tell the house that we would not consider reactivating those arrangements unless and until there are clear and robust safeguards which are able to prevent extradition from u. K. Being misused under the new National Security legislation. This isnt just about the new security law china or the u. K. Have been on a collision course in recent weeks and months to make rob is a very critical of beijings treatment of the minority Muslim Population in the province of shan jiang. Said he believed that serious Human Rights Violations were taking place there and also only last week under immense pressure from the United States the u. K. Made a decision to remove the chinese tech giant hallway from having a key role in building the u. K. s 5 g. Infrastructure Going Forward of course the u. K. Knows it needs to try to find a line between satisfying the United States and also keeping open trade routes with china particularly when it is its future the European Union. In london thank you were going to talk to undress folder about this now senior fellow at the university of Nottingham Asia Research Institute and a move that you think the u. K. Had to take. Yes absolutely you see as a signatory of the 184 sign of british joint declaration the British Government really had no choice. The Chinese Communist party was in breach of that internationally binding treaty thats large with the United Nations they are riding roughshod all the basic law which is hong kongs constitution and they have effectively terminated one country 2 systems and such if the British Government had done nothing i think that would have. Undermined its credibility both wide but wouldnt chinas argument just be well yeah the 94 deal but 1970 you signed sovereignty back to us and now youre just interfering well the equipment was that hong kong would preserve its you know democratic way of life for the next 50 years so 20th. Into that agreement the chance comes party unity lets really kind of withdraw from that. Treaty and such not just the u. K. But also the United States and hopefully the European Union eventually. They will all have to kind of live with this new reality that we have you know or a party which feels not bound by International Law at all do you feel if there are more countries to take steps like the u. K. Have just taken with extradition or with any other issues to do with the security law will it make a difference in the end if there is enough opposition to china i mean china is not generally a country in the communist party is generally not a party that would change its mind. It certainly seems so but i do think Boris Johnson and only have exercise leadership it is little to support in a situation like afterbirth said or so many had thought that perhaps u. K. Would warm up to china to secure a trade deal. But we see kind of the reverse development and in a way the u. K. Now is a leader. In developing a much more assertive western china policy together with the United States and it is indeed actually the European Union and in particular germany who are the laggards and we really need to a briefly talk about germany because theyre also now heading your presidency now germany really. Is still engaging in a very mccann to list kind of approach to china merkel Still Believes in change through trade kind of unconditional dialogue and cooperation but the problem is when you deal with someone like she jean ping you know you can just to bank on a consequential kind of dialogue you do need to find a better mix of you know of carrots and sticks so to speak and dress for thank you for joining us good to talk to you in the news ahead a leading Rights Group Says child athletes in japan are facing abuse and a prominent journalist in zimbabwe reporting on corruption and protests is arrested.
