An arabic phrase meaning god is great thats. Often used during acts of terror they shot the man after apparently spotted wielding a knife nearby french president emanuel macross a spoiled to the scene. Of paris correspondent amulets about to move to told us more about the man whod been attacked legal victim was a history teacher who show the. Republics recent eventually had no income asked and its likely that this incensed some of the one of the few because we dont know whether the assailant was himself a pupil of just a friend but he was the d. P. The professor was attacked and killed and decapitated by somebody who thought was outraged and so cartoons might be shown again to the document you think least which is the authority specific you havent given this to gauge of magistrate specialize in terrorism were immediately put on the case and theyre now. Investigating to see whether he acted alone whether this was preplanned whether it was from spur of the moment the area is called also to know being thought also to lead is a suburb of paris its about 20 miles out of paris its was the years for decades a working class suburb and it has ruined our Muslim Community most of which is completely peaceful but it has the kind of problems that you have in those areas which is that. Too many young people who do not find jobs and therefore stay around and what president michael has recently called some characters terry you have small clusters of people who want to live. In sort of normal normal french way but in crazy get to which they Stay Together to speak arabic and they go to one specific mosque is of course he had a mosque in the area you know weve had terrorism in france for with 4050 years almost started in the in the 2nd weve had it in the eightys and it was a radiance it was libya and it was various things. Horrible things that we did learn to live with and i think the movement in france and political cultures in particle to long enough to strip and understand you have to think brings the country together even though we have been fairly divided on it braced you position and a majority together thats something on which people say no you know this is where this is where the line is drawn we do not accept that there should be you know murders are justified because people drew drawing that sound so to some extent its bringing the french together more than its dividing. And elizabeth were reporting from paris now british Prime Minister baraks johnson is what in the u. K. To prepare for a no deal break from the e. U. Unless there is what he called a fundamental change of position from brussels leaders have dismissed his statement as rhetoric just as leaders in brussels were wrapping up 2 rather slow days of talks from across the channel british Prime Minister johnson decided to breathe some life into the meeting given that they have refused to negotiate seriously for much of the last few months and given that this summit appears explicitly to rule out a canada style deal i concluded that we should get ready for january the 1st with a range moves that are more like australias based on simple principles of global free trade the clock is ticking in 10 weeks time the u. K. Could crash out of the block without a deal key issues regarding trade are far from being settled access to u. K. Fishing waters yet another contentious issue. So you leaders are warning that britain needs a deal more than the e. U. A new summer seek new claim it just so happens that making the british Prime Minister happy isnt the vocation of leaders of the 27 Member States that chose to remain in the e. U. Focused on the problem in italy and leave it whatever the british people were told during the referendum they need the Single Market they are much more dependent on us than we are on them. The german chancellor being her usual self exercised restraint like most you leader shes in fear of a deal but has made clear it cannot come at all costs. The ones to important thing is that when we accept and acknowledge that the u. K. Wants to go its own way with any clarity on how to react with the laws of the European Union being increasingly different from those in the u. K. Its to anything could anything. Even got off the air again a future deal however difficult striking it may be is not yet completely off the table hope still lies on this man e. U. Chief bracks and negotiator Michel Daniel he was supposed to go to london on monday but its unclear if that will happen well lets get more on this from d. W. Correspondents alexandra farm nominee in brussels and mass in london welcome both lets start with a big on those rumors that britain had told the chief negotiator Michel Barnier not to come on monday are we any clearer about whats going on. Well as far as we know they have discouraged the e. U. Delegation from actually coming to london of it was originally the plan however there are talks a possibly the phone call say there are talks about how these talks are going to continue so britain has not completely slammed the door hasnt said this is all going to and we are going to leave with it no deal a lot of commentators here in london are thinking that this is further posturing you have to remember that Boris Johnson was always somebody who said we have to be believable that we will leave without a deal otherwise we wont get what you what we won say we know that there are some crucial issues that are still sort of not being agreed upon fisheries being one of them and then also there is the issue of how much the u. K. Government can subsidize u. K. Companies so that the issue of stay safe and we know that progress has been made but its not there yet they dont really have the agreement that far as johnson has said that they wanted to have at the 15th of october so this could be a move by Boris Johnson just to exert more pressure on the European Union alexandra from norman do you leaders believe a deal can still be done. Well they say they do they do believe that an agreement can be reached even though the clock is ticking just to mention the sticking points and their leaders he also said that they believe that there has been some progress that there are prospects of a deal. That german chancellor stressed that we have seen lights in the past weeks but also shadows so the leaders made clear that they do believe that a deal is still possible but that its now of the British Government that has to make the necessary moves to make an agreement reachable and possible a bigot we heard from Boris Johnson spokesman saying that its also over unless the e. U. Shifts its position is not being read as a real ultimatum or just another move in this rather bad tempered czeska. It at the moment still looks like a move of course we dont know how this weekends going to pan out and whats really happening early next week also we dont know or there may be further talks between boys johnson and other leaders of state there is a speculation that this could maybe bring some Fresh Movement into these talks we know though that a lot is at stake for the u. K. Business leaders have reacted to this latest development saying that business is not ready to leave without any deal we know that the u. K. Economy is hit incredibly hard by the coronavirus pandemic this will bring economic damage further into the next year and brags if there is no deal that would be a real long time harm for the u. K. Economy and Boris Johnson will not be the one to walk away from these talks very lightly and so i like them to be heard emanuel saying britain needs a deal more than the e. U. Does do you get the sense that the leaders are getting fed up with british tactics while watching manal marco more talk today in brussels you could certainly have the impression that he seems to be fed up he was quite blunt accusing the u. K. Also using lots of tech to take pics and saying that making Boris Johnson happy is not the job of southern leader is off the 27 Member States that decided to stay within the European Union so you can have this impression that the leaders here are getting more and more disappointed and impatient with the way Boris Johnson and his government are handling the matter thank you for the exams are not going brussels big mass in london thank you both. Well germany has one of the lowest covered 19 death rates in europe and one prays for its actions at the start of the pandemic but a recent surge in infections sparked confusion as new restrictions are imposed and some of that overturned court containment measures vary from state to state now many germans are looking for clarity. The wait for corona virus test airing cologne in western germany can be a long one but without a negative test result people from a domestic high risk area a ban from staying at hotels in some regions of the country but now some states are already lifting the accommodation bans while in other states it still applies confused so many germans.

In the capital on friday palins Administrative Court overturned the limit on Opening Times on boss restaurants and shops that was implemented by the senate just a week ago german Health Minister a young man said the courts decision was regrettable he believes the measure wasnt accepted as jewish of the hazy guidelines between the different states. These women are destroyed this is and its also this inconsistency that has made it difficult for many people to understand the whys and wherefores of a greatest asset during the pandemic is simply that it can be understood that theres a logic in it that we have a certain cohesion in the framework and in the approach to the action we take. Cry from as numbers of cases increase politicians are desperately urging people to comply with the current virus guidelines they say they warn is the only way that day care schools and businesses can continue to operate normally this is the only way they say to prevent a 2nd lockdown meanwhile germanys hospitals are also preparing for a 2nd wave experience gained in spring means specialist staff here are now in a position to better assess the progress of the disease and to use ventilators more specifically but the shortage of nurses remains a pressing issue concerns are also growing that if the number of infections continues to rise so could the demand for beds in intensive care units. Or a new study by the World Health Organization is casting doubts on the effectiveness of the drug read desi very treating covered 90 results suggest that the us developed antiviral medication does not increase the survival rates of patients or indeed helps reduce the length of the hospital stays and theres a very seedy emergency approval in the us after previous studies seem to show that it did speed up recovery it was one of the cocktail of drugs used to treat us as a double trouble but he was treated in hospital for comment 19. Dr Barbara Harris speaks for the World Health Organization and joins us from geneva welcome to g. W. How do we get from studies show rendez of it helps reduce the length of hospital stays covered patients to studies show that it doesnt. So study that weve just analyzed the interim data for is a very very very large study and its going on in a lot of countries weve got more than 500. 00 hospital sites looking to the countries involved and we got 80 percent of the day on the floor trucks we were looking at this time which was. The pain of the meeting of the. Hypoxic and interferon and yes its correct we did not find any of those drugs have no precision full effect on 28 day mortality all right you mention of hospital stay whether or not you ended up on a ventilator so where did the 1st as a result come from. So been a number of different studies those studies may have been done in this lot of studies so when you have a smaller study you may get a different result from a very large time like this ok does a very good for anything. We. Need to analyze so for instance we didnt look at any of those drugs when being used in the community and it would be useful to look at the studies to do studies to look at how different drugs work in the community so we certainly are not saying that it would in fact were not giving any advice at this stage weve got a Guideline Panel who will be reviewing a little bit danger in looking at what sort of drugs people should be using not very aware of anything that is promising. Well he simply does it take some medicine does make a big difference in the right people so if you give dexamethasone steroids when people are severely critically ill you can reduce the mortality that the studies have indicated by 30 percent. We were sitting there in you know it tracks and the beauty of this very much trial weve done is it really isnt ever going through being in space like a machine and so the next drugs and promising drugs will be put into that study and we should get results within a few months as we have group b. So it is very good way to analyze. Graphs and what might work good talking to thank you for joining us dr Margaret Harris from the World Health Organization.
