Want to appeal to undecided voters or people from another party really its about rallying the troops its all right its about speaking or preaching to the choir its about getting supporters people already your supporters to open up their wallets and give money because these campaigns need a lot of money even in a in a more muted environment that were in because of the pandemic these campaigns thrive on lots of money and they and these conventions work they raise millions and millions of dollars and will probably be seeing that in the days to come well thank you very much lets now take a look at some of the other stories making news around the world German Foreign minister heiko moscows paid a surprise visit to libya or land has been trying to broker peace in the country wired in a civil war since 2011 last called the recent low in fighting a deceptive common war and that outside powers are still sending arms to libya.
