and the structure will show important one. 2 member of the council of europe. and i've been just wondering what is based on commission because the russian state also called the court ruling blatant and gross interference in the judicial affairs of a foreign state. now that one statement undermines the basis on which countries belong to the counselor, doesn't it? the fact is, if the council does nothing about this, then countless numbers of people in russia and elsewhere will conclude that you're simply not capable of enforcing the requirements of council membership. and standing up to tough and abusive governments is not right. not really. it is not that simple. it is up to the government to implement the judgment. it is up to the committee of ministers of the council of europe to push for the institution of the judgment. we have to keep dialogue with dorothy is also in difficult situation and it is not because of difficulties that we give up. on the contrary, i think this is also a moment for the council of europe to do more than ever before and did all the in

the council of europe has issued as late as verdict, human rights and democracy in europe. and it makes unpleasant reading. europe's democratic environment and institutions. it says are in neutrally reinforcing decline. we talked a lot about democracy and human rights on this program and spend a good time holding politicians to account for actions for the peace when danger those rights. but the situation is not so critical. we decided to question a leading official just trying to protect human rights about why that protection is famous. junior me after which is commissioner for human rights with the council of europe, and she joins me now some stuff, but what is it gone so spectacularly wrong? the dounia may out of edge welcome to conflict zone. thank you. 2 months ago you press the emergency button on human rights in europe. you said 2020 had been a disastrous year for those rights on the continent. one of the bleakest assessments to be hard for a long time. do you think anybody is listening to your warning? well, i hope so. it is something that is affecting, that's all, n

the conference on the future of europe. there are $10.10 of several, tens of thousands war on daily basis. debating on the future offer d a european union, and in top of that, that has been in a scientific way, 800 people selected. and all these people have nothing to do with european union to participate in the decision making process. we have seen such err. yeah, what we called citizens convention, already in france already in ireland, already in germany. but it's for the 1st time that it is organized on a ben european level. and my expectation of this exercise is not to listen to the citizens because we know what the citizens want. we have the euro barrow meter, we have surveys, like it's in the gaze also in britain. note, the big difference is that the citizens are, are selected, will continue to participate in not only formulating recommendations, but also in the answers the yet, the bullet since well diff to their wishes and to do recommendations. you said to regain people's trust in democracy. we need to fundamentall

the council of europe has issued in places, verdicts on human rights and democracy in europe. and this makes unpleasant readings, europe's democratic environment and institutions that says are in mutually reinforcing, decline. we talked a lot about democracy and human rights on this program for the good data, i'm holding politicians to account for actions for the peace when danger those rights. but the situation is now so critical, we decided to question a leading official who's trying to protect human rights about why that protection is famous. junior me, as of which is commission to human rights to the council of europe. and she's always been off and stuff, but what is it gone so spectacularly wrong? the junior may out of it's welcome to comfort zone. thank you. 2 months ago you press the emergency button on human rights in europe. you said 2020 had been a disastrous year for those rights on the continent. one of the bleakest assessments to be heard for a long time. do you think anybody is listening to your warning? well, i hope so. it is something that is affecting us all.

well i guess that in some issues, so globally, also in immediate neighborhood of europe use, foreign policy has been quite successful when we speak, for example, ups about supporting democrat, the movement speed ga, be ukraine beat, some other countries where i say if you look at the changes in the, in western ball consent and so on and so on. and then yes, you also can of course find examples where it's really difficult to make a difference. and even to reach consensus in d, u, the same middle east issue. so it is as long as you is not one country, but the combination of 27 at the state. sure. well, it also remained like this that not in all foreign policy issues you easily can reach very brilliant consensus or, or you can push forward the very brilliant ideas where they're united position of each member states. this is really strong so that they feel look at the middle east then. yes, it last, it already dictates. and dick gates, but it's not only do your opinion and then also, no other country came out with the solution which really can be helpful. so that, that's why disease real

, and is eager to sell in europe in the united states game. and tried to convince the european allies that if they were to take on this technology, that they would be opening themselves to substance abuse going forward by the chinese. and they've had mixed success on that front. but i think at least this issue of china is taking a much more central position in the european debate than it did even a year ago. i think just to add on this, it's also difficult to advances debate in europe because of the public mood and of the public perception of china, which is only shifting very slowly. so china is still not perceived as a threat in germany and also in many other european countries. and then we have an addition, the equipment making twists. obviously the business interests of china. and this together is something which sort of politicians have to consider when they take a strong approach to china, to take that population with them and to explain to them why we have to change our china policy. and can you imagine she doing pain going into listeni

me well, western europe is sourcing extra supplies from the u. s. as the energy crisis. difference. this earthquake in northern holland was recorded on surveillance cameras over 70 quakes have been recorded and groaning in this year. court fosten still remembers one strong quake in 2012. i was sitting behind my desk on, on a desk chair with her, with wheels underneath. and i was moving forward and backward for about 20 centimeters. so it was really shaken. what's happening here? fosten belongs to us citizens initiative that blames natural gas production for the constant earthquakes. that's why pumping stations are being gradually shut down in 2023. production will stop completely because the damage is only getting worse. is that the costs of stringing strengthening houses in order to be able to continue gas extraction was rising too much and to 3rd, to set the guess field is for $18.00. 90 percent empty at this moment the netherlands will soon stop. * being a major gas supplier, the country will even have to import gas itself from places like the gas storage facility in raiden in lo

more than 10000 young women from nigeria fled to europe. many of them ended up in the hands of human traffickers, according to un estimates up to 80 percent of nigerian women who crossed the mediterranean, a force into prostitution by their fellow countrymen. this man who calls himself david knows a lot about this dark business. 10 years ago, he was a member of the nigerian mafia earning money to human trafficking and forth prostitution. but then he quit. and since then his life has been in danger. our reporter met david in italy, where the nigerian mafia is gaining more and more influence the town of castell tournament. once a tourist resort is now a mafia stronghold, a place where sheer violence rules, the nighttime on an industrial estate, young african prostitutes, and looking for clients. you can see similar things on streets across decently. most of the women from nigeria, the u. n says that up to 80 percent of them are victims of human traffic is that was her fate to will call her juliet. the nigerian woman tells us that she arrived

the above all really feels jewish life in europe. ah, that's what film producer, corona and journalist keep in mind more exploring, delving into history and the present. ah, some things are painful, many or surprising. everything important because life is so much more than what you think, you know, i would never think i need to remind myself because i grew up in a completely different way. broad explorer, logistics, jewish in europe. the 2 port documentary starts july 5th on d. w. ah, ah, this is, these are the knees and these are our top stories. low enforcement agencies around the world have made hundreds of arrests as part of a sting targeting organized crime networks. investigate to say they gathered evidence by tricking suspects into using a messaging app that was actually controlled by the f b. i police read the.

the same message from the us from europe, year after year. why are you not doing better on this front? well, 1st we're doing it for ourselves. not for the sake of support. when you're not doing it, you're doing, you're not doing it until you're not getting to grips with well, you on your, your, your, your, your, your either misinformed or exaggerating. it was under the president of the under the president zelinski, the anti corruption court finally started functioning the ukraine and it was a very long battle to set up the court and make it operational. unfortunately, the previous president did not allow that to happen. president zalinski did, and he does not interfere in the operations of the court when the constitutional court of ukraine and other by the judicial system, tries to destroy an anti corruption reform. it was the president who stepped in immediately. and then if he was followed by the government and the parliament who restored parts of critical legislation that was declared new and void, another invoice by, by the constitutional

they become part of the community at the edge of europe. in the end, a shared religious faith becomes animosity. ah, but this miracle of togetherness only lasts a short time. 10 days later, the campus suddenly closed and the refugees have to leave. just as the village has started opening up to them, a black jesus is a plea for europe to change how it deals with people in desperate situations here where so many are dying. simply because they're looking for hope. and people in europe isolate themselves to maintain their wealth. ah, and we've got lots more culture for you on facebook and twitter to search for d w culture. you can also find are so on d, w dot com. now for me and the whole crew here in berlin, thanks for watching and see you next time for more arts and culture. here on d w ah ah. the news. the news i kick off the record she's coming stores in the light. the price team get lucky traditional club in free call. the 1st part of our review of an extraordinary season. 30 minutes on d. w. ah. news news. it is good to know what came dow

and also in book form, i know it really feels jewish life in europe. ah, that's what film producer and journalist keep in mind. more exploring, delving into history and the present. ah, some things are painful, many or surprising. everything is important because life is so much more than what you think, you know, i would never have to be live so openly and so freely and constantly remind myself because i grew up in a completely the way the broad stickers jewish in europe. the 2 part documentary starts july 5th lawn, d w. ah ah ah, ah, was, ah, this is the w news coming to live from berlin. russia sounds the alarm over a new wave of the corona, virus numbers of new cases have reach record highs across the country. some regions are introducing tougher restrictions to stop the virus spreading. we take a look at why the pandemic is surging again. also in the program the coping 19 outbreak in australia.

so this will only give him a window of a few months to give, again an emphasis to, to europe, to try and set in motion. so we formed that he couldn't lead because of america we left and so far, i think the political cause wanted a manual shots. thank you. the international effort to raise money from that is where the refugees and migrants begins today. more than 2 years after the country was plunged into crisis in 2019 us sanctions against the regime led by socialists because my daughter contributed to an economic meltdown worse than food show fish and send millions fleeing to neighboring countries such as columbia. then the pandemic case and through those countries into turmoil as well, things got so bad that many and now returning home. oscars like reports, they are becoming 2 or walkers. millions of them have left venezuela fleeing the countries humanitarian crisis. now, some of them are going back depend demik and political turmoil in neighboring columbia has prompted a wave of his williams worn down by economic hardship to make the journey home when i left them with the goal of

and i think that's actually the majority of citizens in europe. they are very worried about the migration issues starting from this that white people all have to leave data data homeland in the sunsets. it's very human and in lots of cases, human threats it so that i guess the majority of people in europe in distance don't want to see that people will have to leave their homes and start the life of g. i'm not only about total, say yes, mr. i'd perhaps the most disappointing aspect which human rights groups are underlined last month is how the e u has failed to safeguard people against serious human rights violations at its external borders. the spotlight has fallen on the border agency front, tx, which is accused by human rights watch of failing repeatedly to take action of allegations of human rights violations. that's a serious issue, isn't it? it's exposed depold lines in the values that all mental countries was supposed to sign up to have not been a major disappointment for you. why the, for me, the big disappointment actually is that we still

i asked him if, given europe's current energy shortage. this was the worst possible time to be switching off nuclear energy sources. well, you know, i mean the, the german nuclear pays out has been in the making for a long time. it's decades that the german society has been discussing the issue by the way that the term like in a given that which now has been integrated into the, the english language like energy transition dates from 980 and you know, as soon as 1986 when the channel bow disaster started happen to took place, there were in germany had actually published in germany, there were 20 nuclear phase out scenarios published. so there's a long exercise of thinking and designing this, this nuclear phase out. so what is happening now is, is just the consequence of these latest decisions that are now 10 years old. so there was a long period of preparation for that and let's face it, it's, it's been a phenomenal investment security. you can, you know, imagine you can invest into other electricity generating technologies, knowing that 40

they will the use the case and above all, how it feels jewish life in europe. what film producer, these kona and journalists, goodman, are exploring, delving into history and the present. i would never have thought the judaism could be lips open and so i need to remind myself because i grew up in a completely different way. prod, explorer listed jewish in europe. the 2 port documentary starts july 5th on dw, the the president biden. and put in, prepare to face off in geneva. the us president has been firming up friendships in europe ahead of the encounter. let's see if he's successfully brought his allies of it close to and as you get to approve the 1st spending of its massive recovery program, we'll visit some german retailers looking to find the own way out of the pans epic . this is data view business robots in berlin. welcome to the program. us president joe vice will meet russia's latin a post him later at the end of a european ship that seen him showing up support from america's allies. biden has put an end to an almost 2 decades long trade to speak with

it's also in northern europe. now in europe, the northern hemisphere ventilate rooms as often as possible. all of these are traditional, simple measures that we all can get when on top of it. the vaccines do give projects, they give protection, certainly again, without the variance. and they also give protection against the, the army. so if you are offered the vaccine, please take it and if you offer the booster, it's also time to get it still in my thank you very much for talking with us. that was christian lind, bios spokesperson for the world health organization in geneva. thank you. is a lucas mother developments in the panoramic world wide south african researchers have found a booster shot of johnson and johnson's covey. 19 vaccine is 84 percent effective at preventing hospitalization. covered 19 cases have reached a record high in the united states. however, the country's centers for disease control and prevention, se deaths and hospitalizations are comparatively low, and the ice hockey junior world champio

in europe, things are a bit more complicated. many researchers and racism act to this and diversity experts say that european companies still haven't engaged with a reality of racism. the lack of data in many european countries to show the effect and impact of racial discrimination helps corporate avoid. this issue in europe based opportunity is capturing all the information that's out there around different ethnic groups, racial groups, and with that valuable data. information companies can do wonders in the sense of recognizing where, where they're challenged the usual book to solve this, we have to create very transparent hiring situations. there needs to be that mutual respect well, i'm not willing today. i'm definitely losing, but at least i know what the rules are, but that's not what it's like with racism or any form of discrimination. it's like playing a game where the rules are always changing, and you end up being excluded without knowing what the will rules are. now every so often a stalker mind comes along with how fa

the council of europe, as if you did lay this verdict on human rights and democracy in europe. and it makes unpleasant reading. europe's democratic environment and institutions that says are in mutually reinforcing, decline. we talked a lot about democracy and human rights on this program and spend a good time holding politicians to account for actions. so the peace when danger of those rights. but the situation is now so critical, we decided to question a leading official is trying to protect human rights about why that protection is famous. junior me, after which is commission and human rights of accounts. as you guys went off and stuff, but what is it gone so spectacularly wrong? the junior may out of edge welcome to convict zone. thank you. 2 months ago you pressed the emergency button on human rights in europe. you said 2020 had been a disastrous year for those rights on the continent. one of the bleakest assessments to be heard for a long time. do you think anybody is listening to your warning? well, i hope so. it is something that is affecting us all. no matter which par

so europe says the pollutants playing politics. it says the same thing that the you is playing politics with north street to. is he not correct there? well, i mean no 3 to and it's better says the not true 110 years ago, they are highly political projects. you are linking to major consumer producer blocks together with a physical pipeline infrastructure. it is political by nature and this politics when it goes well, it's good, it's you, you are making a big producer of the consumer and it improves politics. but of course, when politics get sour, as they are now between russia and europe in the west, or general over ukraine, for instance, which of course, is the gas transit routed traditionally, it was then if things get complicated and that is the issue now. yes, both sides are playing politics. however, the approval process that has been put on hold is a commercial one. and this is important to keep in mind. the approval process with a bonus next are going to, in germany, is that commercial process will stream to and gas from has

many countries in europe are seeing unprecedented peaks amid the rapids spread of the omicron variant in germany. case numbers are also rising, but for now still comparatively low isn't in schools and overall, we're a bit more disciplined than some of our european neighbors. asia masks are especially effective against omicron that sets germany apart. we cannot forget that england and denmark barely had social distancing measures in place recently, and masks were not born. that is certainly different here in germany. this is in balance, indoor essential, unless the end of the year come may be deceptive. few tests were administered during the holidays and numbers reported more slowly. health minister car lauterbach says the actual volume of cases could be 2 to 3 times higher, and a spike may be seen quite soon. queues at test centers are increasing. this location in berlin carries out over a 1000 tests a day. then we feel it's coming on that the numbers are slowly increasing on distance thing. by mid january there should be a more realistic picture of the situation, but the number of co

it's one of the major roots for russian gas to europe. some western politicians and industry experts have accused russian president vladimir putin, of withholding deliveries to europe and mid political tensions over ukraine and not stream to something that he denied during his annual news conference. the vol to him, it would buy them, they lie all the time. they mix everything up. gas from supplies, all are requesting gas volumes, under current contracts. and not only that, not right, it's also increasing the volume or a premier ship, the contract spokespeople for our w e and uni power, which among gas prompts, biggest gas by us and germany set. the russian company was still meeting delivery obligations by measurements. show that gas volumes flowing through the jamar pipeline have been reversed. some western politicians believe protein wants to put pressure on not string to. it's another pipeline which is set to deliver gas from russia through the baltic sea, directly to germany. germany has not approved the pipeline yet. some experts bel

the same message from the us from europe, year after year. why are you not doing better on this front? well, 1st we're doing it for ourselves, not for the sake of support, but you're not doing it. you're doing, you're not doing it until you're not getting to grips with well, you on your, your, your, your, your, your either misinformed or exaggerating. it was under the president of under the president zelinski. the anti corruption court finally started functioning the ukraine, and it was a very long battle to set up the court and make it operational. unfortunately, the previous president did not allow that to happen. president lensky did, and he does not interfere in the operations of the court when the constitutional court of ukraine and other body of our judicial system tries to destroy an anti corruption reform. it was the president who step in immediately. and then he was followed by the government and the parliament who restored parts of critical legislation that was declared new and void not invoice by, by the consitutional court. things

show focus on europe is up with the news. the news, the news, the news, the news, the news no more protection. denmark is the 1st country in europe to expel the refugees. officials argues not to syria or say that again. but the people affected by this ruling are desperate to me, arrested and detained. upon arrival, i focus on europe ah dw, into the conflict zone with sarah kelly i citizens cope with unemployment and inflation. president hardy is getting attention for blocking twitter around for an apparent violent crack down on protesters who call for an end to police violence. my guess this lee from berlin is my theory and ambassador uses. how does he explain the track record of this government conflict zone? 60 minutes my phone, d w. oh, i know it all feels jewish life. that's what from the producer on his own. and journalists who are exploring, delving into history and the present. nice that i would never have thought that today's and can be live. so. and so i believe it's julie senior, the 2 port documentary starts july 5

, and is eager to sell in europe in the united states game. and tried to convince the european allies that if they were to take on this technology, that they would be opening themselves to subterfuge, going forward by the chinese. and they've had mixed success on that front. but i think at least this issue of china is taking a much more central position in the european debate than it did even a year ago. i think just to add on this, it's also difficult to advance the debate in europe because of the public mood and of the public perception of china, which is only shifting very slowly. so china is still not perceived as a threat in germany and also in many other european countries. and then we have in addition to the account making twists, obviously the business interests of china. and this together is something which sort of politicians have to consider when they take a strong approach to china, to take the population with them and to explain to them why we have to change our china policy. and can you imagine she doing pain going into listening

while russia should stop changing borders in europe by force? russia could, if she wanted to return to the talks on an association agreement with you, but it should also stop sustaining the increasing nasty dictatorship in villa. ruth, it should stop, as i said, already, murder, murdering people in our country's army. and of course, we would find it interesting to talk with russia about its true interests. these are the china, the china, us competition for global domination is i think, going to be the organizing principle of this car for, for it and russia. it could play an important role here. even within the here though, there seems to be a lack of unity when it comes to russia. germany, for example, continues to cooperate with russia over the controversial node stream to gas line. gas pipeline project will be trading in gas in, in your, in russian gas in the ukraine was a major source of corruption in that country. that kind of corruption is now coming to germany. they've already corrupted your former chancellor. mister shredder. now there wi

basically, everyone in europe needs to be ready to be infected or, or exposed, at least to on the call in the next few weeks. it's dividing so quickly, spreading so fast. the r value in the u. k is probably between 3 and 5 at the moment. so it's coming everywhere. so what we need to do, i feel is use the time to be as prepared as possible. now government, launching, boost campaigns, vaccination campaigns. and that's correct. but i also need to think we need to think about ourselves as well. so arousing levels, what are of it's mindy levels? because we know that to me, day is important for immunity and we get it from the sunshine in this time of year in northern europe. unfortunately, we don't get any sunshine and getting plenty of sleep getting some exercise. all these things are going to be important when we are exposed to the virus. and then we can be hopeful that the vast, vast majority of people will get no symptoms, a total of a minimal set of symptoms. so that's interesting, practical advice you're given there. i mean, you mentioned it earlier. some biologists are even calling fo

it's one of the major routes for russian gas to europe. some west and politicians and industry experts have accused russian president vladimir putin, of withholding deliveries to europe and met political tensions over ukraine and not string to something that he denied during his annual news conference for the world to him. it would play them, they lie all the time. they mix everything up. gas from supplies, all are requesting gas volumes, under current contracts. and not only that, not, it's also increasing the volume. or are we me issue of the contract? spokespeople for our w. e and uni power, which among gas prompts, biggest gas by us and germany sat. the russian company was still meeting delivery obligations. but measurements show that gas volumes flowing through the m r pipeline have been reversed. some western politicians believe pooty wants to put pressure on not stream to it's another pipeline which is set to deliver gas from russia through the baltic sea, directly to germany. germany has not approved the pipeline yet. some experts

they get cold and they get them in europe. ready have been less, but then i mean, there's pipeline supply in no way algeria, russia, they can supply as well. but that's where you have no problem. russia has been slow to finish tional gas the you this year despite the critical shortage of stocks. some analysts believe the limited deliveries are no quinn sentence and accused moscow of exploiting europe's energy weakness. why? inter nordstrom to the 9500000000 euro natural gas pipeline. russia recently completed constructing germany. the russians have spent a fortune under put in developing an entire new natural gas province. what happens in europe then, as part of its climate policy cuts back on natural gas consumption? indeed, many politicians do see climate policy, namely, a faster move towards renewables. as the solution, but building out that infrastructure could take years. so what about right now for now, government seemed to have decided the answer is more fossil fuels. china has doubled down on coal while here in the u.

the jewish life in europe. ah, that's what film producer, bona and journalist eas, could no more exploring, delving into history and the present. ah, some things are painful, many or surprising. everything is important because life is so much more than what you think, you know? i would never so it could be made. so sophie, remind myself, i grew up in a completely different way. it's broad explorer, the stickers, jewish in europe. the 2 part documentary starts july 5th on dw the news . this is e w. news live from berlin tonight to another close call with dest, but a bama here binds again. for the 3rd time, the u. s. supreme court dismisses a republican let attempt to kill the affordable care act. the decision means millions will keep their health care coverage. also coming up tonight, china's crack down on hong kong now journalists appear to be be genes, target editorial staff and the pro democracy newspaper. apple daily were arrested in a massive police rate today and china. so.

so where is europe? what does that mean? and what does the us expect now from the european yeah, get hard to meet in the office of this report indicating that there's a sense from the us. some sort of mamma is coming out of washington at this point that they feel that they've done their part. they've shown the europeans that the trump era is truly over that the americans and now really engaging in the transatlantic relationship and that they want the europeans to do their bit. now, what is the us, what the us once the europeans to come on board for a more coordinated approach towards the rising authoritarian powers, particularly china, but also russia. and it also wants you to pull more of its own weight in terms of security and the picture on, on, on these questions is fairly make so far. so on the one hand, on the question of china, the europeans did join with the americans in some coordinated sanctions on china over the human rights abuses being seen in san jang against the muslim league and minority that. but on russia,

it's been a very intense week of diplomacy for joe biden in europe. we had a better place now than we were before all the talking began. i think so. i think he made clear that the united states remains very dedicated to europe and wants to keep the alliance intact and is hoping that the europeans will join him in confronting both russia and china in the years ahead. and there seems to be at least an openness to these ideas in terms of the atmosphere with russia. i think he also succeeded in calming the waters a bit. i don't think the 2 of them are not buddies. they're not going to be best buddies. they didn't look into one another's eyes and actually their souls. they shook hands and had a fairly cordial but frank meeting i would say for smile. and it's not that easy. liana, you talk about it being the, the meeting and prosper. and you said it should move, it should be about cooperation, not just confrontation. now everybody is talking about the us and russia entering what is called strategic stability dialogue. i gather this is very important for the

and i think that's actually the majority of citizens in europe. they are very worried about the migration issues starting from this that why people don't have to leave data, their homeland in the sunsets, it's very human and in lots of cases human tragedy. so that i guess the majority of people in europe in distance don't want to see that people will have to leave their homes and start the life of g. i'm not only about total saying yes, miss denied. perhaps the most disappointing aspect which human rights groups are underlined last month is how the e u has failed to safeguard people. again, serious human rights violations at its external borders. the spotlight has fallen on the border agency front, tx, which is accused by human rights watch of failing repeatedly to take action of allegations of human rights violations. that's a serious issue, isn't it? it's exposed deep pulled lines in the values that all men to countries was supposed to sign up to have been a major disappointment for you. why the, for me, the big disappointment actually is that w

, and is eager to sell in europe in the united states game. and tried to convince the european allies that if they were to take on this technology that they would be opening themselves to substrate use going forward by the chinese. and they've had mixed success on that front. but i think at least this issue of china is taking a much more central position in the european debate than it did even a year ago. i think just to add on this, it's also difficult to advances debate in europe because of the public mood and of the public perception of china, which is only shifting very slowly. so china is still not perceived as a threat in germany and also in many other european countries. and then we have an additional cannot make into, obviously, the business interests of china. and this together is something which sort of politicians have to consider when they take a strong approach to china, to take that population with them and to explain to them why we have to change our china policy. and can you imagine she doing pain going into listening mode with

how it tastes tele, feels. jewish life in europe. oh, what film producer are these phone and journalist coogan, mont more exploring. delving into history and the present that i would never think can be lips open and so freely and closely to remind myself because i grew up in a completely different way. fraud. it's the station jewish in years, the 2 part documentary starts july 5th on dw, i oh, the news . this is d w news was from berlin. it is election day in iran. citizens can go to the, to choose a new president for the islamic republic, but with newly all reformers candidates, far from running, what choice do people really have? also coming up, millions of people fled wars and other crises last year or even as called the 1900 close borders.

were his 1st trip abroad as the president has taking him to europe, and this is a clear sign he wants to show you that this the trans atlantic relationship is the most important relationship for the united states. but in is going to meet around $35.00 war need, or it's in his a day trip. and this includes a prime minister bar is johnson who will be hosting the g 7 summit, but also turkish president. right here on. and of course, the significance, i'm probably a quite difficult meeting with russia. the president vladimir putin by wants to rebuild the end to repaired trans atlantic ties that have been as trained during the trump era. but he also wants to refrain relations with russia during that meeting. with, with put and china, it's also of course going to be an important issue here. he wants to show china that the united states and europe are working together against come on the enemies . the important question will be, of course, if other countries in europe also would define china as an enemy, like the united states. well, the w kerry, that's my reporting there from washington d. c

most recall to recovery find has to make a contribution to ensure that all states in europe can react accordingly. and that also requires an exception of one off efforts to which germany and france are ready to pay. but i said, when it came to diplomatic issues, market and my home mostly. so i to i, paris, and berlin revived no money for math to find a solution to the walk in the dumb bus region of ukraine. they are still together to maintain the iran nuclear deal. and when the relationship between padding and washington was at a low, harris acted as a mediator. but a difference in tone became clear when it came to russia with a manual, and my co much more compromising was letting me put in. then i'm going to merkel and with friends way more critical of the notes tween to gas pipeline project in the baltic sea. a project always supported by berlin. today's reunion in berlin, between the 2 leaders might be the last of it's kind of bank of america will lead her office in september. but those 4 years of corporation did give a new impetus to grow the relationship between the 2 countries.

so where is europe? what does that mean? and what does the us expect now from the europe? yeah, get hard to me in the office is this report indicating that there's a sense from the us, some sort of murmurs coming out of washington at this point that they feel that they've done their part. they've shown the europeans that the trump era is truly over the americans and now really engaging in their transit lansing relationship and that they want the europeans to do their bit. now, what is the us, what the us once the europeans to come on board for a more coordinated approach towards the rising authoritarian powers, particularly china, but also russia. and it also wants europe to pull more of its own weight in terms of security and the picture on, on, on these questions is fairly makes so far. so on the one hand, on the question of china, the europeans did join with the americans in some coordinated sanctions on china over the human rights abuses being seen in she jang, against the muslim week and minority there. but on russia, for example, the germans have refused to pull the

the europe in union. what among the many nations that sent in india as waive the most prized commodity oxygen. thousands of oxygen cylinders were transported into india. germany also sent an oxygen generating plant to delhi, to sustain a specialized coven hospital, the double deli bureau to you by explaining why that was so important. the city of demi has gone to a hiring time. people have seen their loved ones, literally gasping for breath, as oxygen supplies rad out. any attempt to boost supplies here is hugely welcomed. people across old straw to a society felt angry and abandoned by the government, as they watched their relatives get sick and many die. people desperate to find spare beds or oxygen done to social media, they possibly for help on platforms like facebook, instagram, and twitter, crowdsourcing care for their loved ones. but the crush of sickness was something that some believed no one could have prepared for it. it came as a joy, the o ward, i'm the best and i suppose, but we both know th
