Rouge commander who oversaw the torture and killing of thousands of cambodia is dies in hospital. And another victim of the pandemic australias economy plunges into recession for the 1st time in 3 decades. Welcome to the program us President Donald Trump has talked of domestic terror in a city where a man was shot 7 times in the back by police his comments were directed at protests that erupted after the incident the name of jacob blake in our power lies wasnt mentioned instead trump spoke in support of Law Enforcement and against those he labeled anti american john 100 has more from connection. The rubble is still piled high in the streets of can no ship buildings boarded in tempers flaring President Donald Trumps arrival in this battered city pitted his hardcore supporters against the demonstrators protesting the shooting of another black man by police. He came to praise police and must give far greater support to a Law Enforcement its all about giving him Additional Support these are great people he came to condemn protesters these are not acts of peaceful protest but really domestic terror and he came to take credit once they responded and once we took you know control of it things when really in the 2 hour tour the president declined to say the name of jacob blake the black man now paralyzed from Police Bullets the officer responsible he said just choked and you have people to joke theyre under tremendous i said it yesterday i said it last night theyre under tremendous pressure he left a city more divided than ever his supporters on one side but want to show support for him arriving support. Loot and murder. Stands for in the protesters of black lives matter on the other its effect seen a spike in my system since the truck came to office this is a fact its totally out of control right now its totally out of control americans are fighting americans everybody is talking about civil unrest in the next war this is our country. There is also a 3rd group who gathered at a spot sacred to them to reflect on what happened. When Group President didnt meet with the blake family they preferred to be here at the scene where jacob blake was shot among supporters to trump blakes family said simply stay away to the demonstrators they called for more protests and more peace were not mad at you when you stand youre angry and upset and we could see why you would want to burn some guy who asked you not to that 1st day to put up an anchor where its going to raise up high and unity to come or go with the blacks were going to make some big changes that affect only little jakes over. Many in this divided city believe there is still hope of unity once again here. Just little evidence of it any time soon john hendren aljazeera can no sure wisconsin. Scuttlebutt says he director of kernel justice campaigns for color of change he says the president needs to address the cold says of the crisis. I think its really unfortunate you know the president is has traveled to the most. Ive asked this as of dealing with the crisis there but he refuses to acknowledge what sparked this crisis. He would rather focus on. Whatever really rearrest of the. Property destruction and even rarer. That this is an actual person to person violence. Thats happening as part of the protests around the country that to focus on. The crisis the city vast majority of the country has recognized since summer started this was the death of georgia florida that we have a real problem with littering. You know theres a quote from Martin Luther king jr with a little bit over use right now. But its the. Cry of the voice of the enteric and i think the President Trump is a friend of special example of a leader who lacks the kind of basic human decency you know what to call it up which is empathy the ability to hear understand and relate to the plight of others and i think it was on full display when you can go to some place like that meet with the family the president said that he wouldnt meet with the family because they had requested to have a lawyer their place los angeles and shot and killed a black cyclist 29 year old is all because he was shot to logon 20 times in the back as he tried to get away from officers the familys Attorney Says he was stopped for a bicycle code violation the Sheriffs Department says officers opened fire after a handgun fell from his back. New york orders block the release of President Trumps tax returns while an appeal is heard trump had been ordered to hand over 8 years of his financial records to manhattans District Attorney in connection with a criminal investigation into his Business Practices arguments have been shared for later this month another president has been trying to block the release for over a year. The u. S. Defense Department Report says china plans to double its Nuclear Weaponry in the next decade its believed to have 200. 00 warheads but thats a small fraction of what the u. S. Has it its also particle hate reports. Every year the pentagon is required to paint a picture for congress on the potential threat posed by china this year is painted a military on the rise and gaining on the United States. Some Key Statistics chinas navy is the biggest in the world its army the largest by far the report alleges that china is looking to expand by Building Bases around the world and it says that it has 200 Nuclear Warheads and wants to double that number in a decade as a report notes within the next decade china is on course to expand its. Ballistic submarine fleet into more capable one green sea launch Ballistic Missiles complete development of its Nuclear Capable air launch Ballistic Missiles and shield observer say the u. S. Is likely to use this to try and push china to join a trilateral nuclear deal that would also include russia although beijing has said given that it has only a fraction of the u. S. Arsenal such a deal would be unnecessary they were not just reluctant but refused to really show any interest in signing on to or follow along agreement to the treaty between russia and the United States before tensions deteriorate but of course when youre shouting at each other then that makes the green to do anything not much harder this is an annual report but it is being released today a time where the relationship between the u. S. And china is severely strained but also is the Defense Department is justifying its own budget to congress the pentagon is expected to get more than 740000000000. 00 for next year that is more than 3 times what china is believed to spend on its military particle hane aljazeera. But there is a child on the list and chief executive Andrew Young International consultants based in hole call he says washington sees beijing guns its biggest challenge but chinas military power doesnt compare with thoughts of the u. S. Even give chinas a quality report double or its from 300 to 600 thats what china has at the moment so you 100 to 110th of what america United States has got because the United States is said to possess Something Like 6 barrels of. Oil and of course d the United States much more. Extensive in his military bases its got Something Like 800. 00 military bases in over 20 or 30 countries around the world and so even if chinas going to be able some places its the way others so chinas posture is. Its not the 1st time the United States is flecking up childless military expansion or advancement and in fact at a time when United States pushing back against china 360. 00 degrees the only other military but also Technology Trade ideology. Human rights taiwan Hong Kong Xinjiang the chinese are now realizes there is a existential kind of pushback against china on all fronts and of course artists are taking steps to got its own interests commodore in the execution of who killed thousands of cambodians in the 1970 cents died aged 77 real name is ken you had been serving a life sentence since 2010 for atrocities committed as the head of a total slain prison the tribunals the convicted him has not given the cause of death but he had been ill for several years lets get more on this from wayne hay hes in neighboring thailand for us and wade how significant a figure was he in that brutal regime of the 1970s. Well as the head of that toll celing prison in phnom penh the capital of cambodia or camp of che as it was known then but also as the head of the internal security command of the cmere rouge he clearly was an important figure and thats why he went before this court but before the un backed court in phnom penh to face those charges and ultimately alternately be convicted of them during his trial which led to his conviction 10 years ago he. Disagreed with that though his defense was that even though he expressed some regret for his actions certainly towards the end of his trial his defense was that he was simply a junior officer within the committee rouge and he was only taking orders from above and thats something that we heard from others as well that if they didnt follow out these orders then they too would be killed but clearly again he was an important figure he was at times a Decision Maker and the evidence clearly points towards a certain degree of calculation even pride in his work as the head of that toll celing prison where many people were killed and tortured under his watch and under his orders indeed justice as many is what many victims and survivors of the committee rouge wanted i mean he was the 1st Senior Leader to be tried and convicted of those crimes against humanity pursuit of where do we stand now with those that are still wanted on trial or even jailed i mean is there any closure to this very dark episode. Well its been a very difficult process from the very beginning in fact even before the tribunal was set up in 2003 there was years of negotiations between the cambodian government and the United Nations about exactly how it should be set up how it should be funded and those problems and difficulties really continued right throughout the trials and to this day theres been a really i guess you could call it an unhappy marriage between the government between the United Nations between the prosecutors both from the International Side and from the local side as well and the judges and the lack of funding has also been a real problem as well so it had 3 convictions so there were 3 slated 3 cases still to come before the tribunal the next one that we should jeweled just last month was terminated by the court that was our on a key figure within the kim a rouge in the central part of the country who allegedly oversaw the murder of many many people tens of thousands including many from the charm if that Minority Group so that case has now gone pending any sort of appeal Going Forward so that leaves just 2 so i think theres real doubt now as to whether we will see any more cases come before the strive you know when hey in bangkok thank you.

The coronavirus has plunged australias economy into recession for the 1st time in nearly 30 years it shrank to 7 percent between april and june its worst quarterly downturn on record the contraction was deeper than expected and blamed on cuts in Household Spending more than a 1000000 people have lost their jobs since march and australias 2nd most populous state is still under tough lockdown todays National Accounts confirm the devastating impact on the strain economy from covert 19 hour record run of 28 consecutive years of Economic Growth has now officially come to an end the cause a once in a century pandemic the effect a covert 19 induced recession then the shanahan is Political Editor of the australian newspaper he joins me now via skype from canberra good to have you with us mr shanahan on the program i mean less than expected fall at 0. 3 percent in the 1st quarter the government seemed relieved but if solutions are to sound to a very delicate balancing act dealing with covert 19 and the economy can we expect things to get worse well i think we can expect things to get worse economically for the next quarter largely because of the very tough lockdown stage for lockdown in the torah which accounts for a quarter of the strike is economy and so the treasurer is indicated that the numbers are likely to get worse and given that this is the 1st recession in 28 end of 28 consecutive years of growth in australia if this is a big moment for the strain economy so where in your opinion does the government have to focus its efforts to hold to further slide in the economy in the coming months. Well the federal government stop marchioness Prime Minister is trying to press the states to lift internal border restrictions in australia which is limiting travel and obviously the economy so the 1st thing that the Prime Minister is trying to do is lift those internal borders between Western Australia queensland South Australia and victoria and so thats the 1st thing secondly the government is going to have to try and promote jobs already committed to 10000000000. 00 in Infrastructure Spending jobs is going to be the case curiously the strike in public is almost innuit to the fact that were now in recession theyre not planning the government that blinding coded but the plan out of the room for the recovery in the economy is the case and the creation of more jobs is the case of that and of course another key would be the fact that the Global Economy is all interlink so where does australia look when it comes to sort of signs of economic recovery and a sort of a way to live with covert 19 in a world that has changed significantly in a very short. Well this is a very significant point you might because after the Global Financial crisis a strike which was least affected by many of the advanced economies was i able to come out very quickly from a Global Financial crisis because of trade with china now ironically a strike is trade with china in the mining area is reaching record proportions astride it has its highest trite surplus on record this quarter and the trade with china on arnel and call is continuing at record levels but the pressure of disputes over the origin of the corona virus infections various diplomatic differences and the strategies moves to limit chinas influence in the pacific and in a strike as well as investment is causing great tension and so they say via joining the Global Financial crisis of chinese trade is more limited this time and so a strategy will have to look more widely particularly towards the a you and the us which is they would have as always good to check in with you wish will a full of of the from australia with keen interest and shannon thank you thanks very much colombia has lifted its 5 of credit i was locked down as cove in 1000 cases have begun to stabilize across the country the government now wants to fix things struggling economy and its on a sunday from p.

Was about to board a flight to visit this parents in his native battling for the 1st time since march. Very excited about the reopening and hopefully this means a reactivation of the economy something weve been watching for for a long time. From one of the longest quarantines anywhere in the world and entering a new phase with fewer restrictions. In the capital with people are allowed back into parks but many nonessential businesses or only opening 4 days a week.

Let you know americas 4th largest economy shrank nearly 16 percent in the last quarter tens of thousands of shops and restaurants have already close for a good 5000000 people have lost their job in the country since the beginning of the friend their make the National Unemployment rate this rose to 20. 2 percent the highest ever and the situation is even worse here in the capital where 26 percent of the working population is now unemployed. But with the number of daily infections still stubbornly high the relatively cautious reopening seem justified look at what we are seeing in colombia is that after a long time of gradual but consistent growth in infections we have reached a point where it seems like the virus is. Family stopped growing its remaining constant to managing expectation that the curve will start to descend. The government is counting on people to keep wearing face masks in maintaining social distancing in this new phase but what is clear is that for many getting back on their feet will take years even if the fight to beat the virus succeeds i listen to them and just say you know what. Mexicos president has promised his country will come out of the economic crisis caused by the pandemic without Additional Debt address Manuel Lopez Obrador was presenting his 2nd state of the Union Address mexicos economy is now in its deepest slabs since the Great Recession shrinking 17 percent between april and june but Lopez Obrador is resisting pressure to borrow money or bail out struggling businesses.

Government wants people to return to their offices and it hopes a Media Campaign will encourage them to do that the goal is to reassure them that its safe to go back to work but while Business Leaders support the idea many are letting their employees work from home parker reports now from london. These gleaming towers are deserted surrounding streets and squares abandoned by soup clad workers are now skater hangouts. There are fears struggling city centers may never recover if people dont return to their offices now is the time says the government for white collar workers to go back to their desks where its possible and people can now return to work its safe to do so who actually now people will start to return to the office but i suspect well see more Flexible Working than weve seen in the past and it will be for employers and employees to work out the right balance in their particular cases many businesses have brought in new Safety Measures to entice staff back offices or a puzzle meant of signage and one way systems rules govern our movements companies also have to contend with a dramatic shift towards home working pandemic has proven that for many working from home can indeed work so even claim to be more productive now they dont have to face the morning and evening commute and according to a poll by Cardiff University 9 out of 10 people prefer it so can and should we go back to the way things were before. Those supporting a return say Rich Companies have a moral duty to help revive the economy the people really taking the risks in this economy right now are by and large lower wage employees upon whom this country depends for a ton of Different Services and what we dont see happening is the same courage and determination by and large amongst higher wage employers and employees and we need them to step up and to come back to the office as much as they can responsibly despite government efforts multiple city firms expect only a fraction of staff to return to the near future and some Large Companies have decided to close offices altogether. The government suggested staggering start times and a mixture of office and home working but few expect these commuter trains to ever be full again.
