people learn to classify small handful of animals with edible and all the rest they classify as disgusting. w series about our complex relationship with animals. the great debate. what you know, on youtube dw documentary the, to the my name is danita cindy, katie, and i was born in pre scenario and i most pull books and champion in cost. as i said, the whole solo don't yet have sadie cruise. many honors in the ring include 2015 vice world junior champion 2017 vice european champion 2018 european champion. 2022 world and european championships bronze medalist and 24. the 3 championed the football pins sees the supremely talented lightweight boxer but there is

a problem. just one. i always grade the championships on held in a country that doesn't recognize the cost of items over the product position. i might not be able to compete in those countries, simply because i represent costs a very profound cycle. so one, what is your finding for a nation back for many other countries doesn't exist to politics knocked me out the door. sadie coach cheering red was born in 1999. she's been boxing since she was 12 years old. today, she's among the top 3 boxes in her category in terms of punching power. she's

a multiple winner of domestic and international titles and her tally is lower than it might be, because she's not allowed to box everywhere. more so if i'm on, sophia smarter and look up, you know, i've been unable to compete at 3 well championships held in india, you know, the end for the european championship inside the i think that my participation will be denied because i represent cost, divide that them so number of thoughts, legal, so on, in fairly sporting terms, donetta is not worried about her future. she trains hard every day. but unlike most other fellow boxers, she also faces a fight on the political front. dozens of countries including china, russia and spain do not recognize the sovereignty of costs of oh cool thing is it's a lot to face intestinal obstacles,

not being able to compete for political reasons. but the dba is and that really tough the only on the data i might have been preparing some months to participate in the collection of these. and if one doesn't bundle and on the day before, because one been told that my entry has been kept on store for me. oh, gotcha. no, she lives here to show more than what they was telling me to pull. it's always very d. most of a take them with the dean, but i've tend all these barriers into a source of strength in fort ident to metals montoya. it's really very difficult. so i always pray that the championships on hosted in a country that doesn't recognize the independence of the cost of i and the new event. cool, i'm going yeah. because then my participation is not always guarantee more to just one. and of course the is the good it's early august and christian are members of the aisle painting and dias for are out in force and the costs of

and capital had a big night of boxing. the organizer is a former world champion to until 2014 represented cost of of since then robin crossing, which he has not had tony yet has problems for $1.00 simple reason. he changed his passport. now he represents germany leading don't yet have wishing that costs about could have the same status as his adopted country. 5000 the i came to germany in november 2004. it wasn't easy and the beginning is everyone who does that experience has immigrating, isn't easy to get over the years. we've overcome those problems about the end of the year we are. and finally we can give something back to our native country, those phones. i'm deborah the lawn to all of us to sort of get past that. she is hosting this boxing event, precisely because he hasn't forgotten his homeland. and because he wants to draw attention to the difficult situation facing box, there isn't costs about fact. then he himself saw no other option then to lead his

own country. as the pos, i also got a job passport because it enables you to fly anywhere for competitions. so it's something it definitely needs as a sort of a one over the price for sonya and robin 1st met 3 years ago and he's confident she has a great teacher in the ring. desktops. i'm very proud of her and i think she has a lot of potential. they can see her winning a major title as an amateur, and they've got also as a pro, i'll help you and then we'll jump in your goods and often them with the for decades ago, syrups and ethnic albanians all lived in one country, yugoslavia and they all had a common champion, a scenario of the scenes unimaginable today. one of the few costs of our boxers who has lived the dream of participating in every global competition as

a representative of all communities is axis sally who born and pushed it out. in 1984, he became the 1st boxer of costs of our albanian descent to compete at the olympics . those representing the former yugoslavia were able to take part in all competitions on like cost of our athletes today. jacob of is the best of the time i represented the 25000000 people 100. i was always number one in yugoslavia, southern it'd been crime and national champion 10 times thing was an absolute joy and composite about then i started boxing in europe and the world will soon deal and think so to move on beyond the collapse of yugoslavia began in 1991 with the country then gradually splitting up into individual states. comfortable as a war for independence from the serbian dominated regime ended in 1999. eventually costs a vote declared itself

a sovereign country in 2008. but the bloody conflict between serbs and ethnic albany ends have created deep divisions so deep that they still don't recognize each other. almost a quarter of a century after nato intervention ended the cost of a war. after a decade of diplomatic efforts to normalize relations, the situation worse and again, tensions have been rising once more since 2021, exacerbated by the killing of a cost of our police man in the town to find scott by ethnic serbs in september 2023 the hoping she'll be allowed to compete in the next competition. sonya is fully motivated to train, in addition to the issue of countries, not recognizing her passport. she also has problems with financial backing and costs of,

of due to the limited funding provided by the young countries. also worries alternators comes from the status of said from the food in youth and form. and it's really difficult for me is a large because in order to prepare the new to in the right form for a competition. so when we are forced to change between one or 2 different locations, i sit for sickness. it's enough to force us up on this one and that's another home that they have at the moment. doesn't even have to necessarily strength and conditioning equipment again. and there's lots to start off and then there's a lot of trouble flowing sol, so we have to train on concrete event that leads to a lot of injuries among the fitness center. you know, at this point this was discuss, it's something that the a so just not to pay more attention to this of the looking at what are the lead sports men and women with great potential can do that. training is what these fits it. a couple of things instead of some small boxing federation of costs of i was aware of the problems the poor training conditions are also linked to among other

things, to the political situation in the country. constable is a small and relatively poor nation, and this is a little north side of the region. we have a very small and limited budget which doesn't provide us with the means to support our boxers as much as we should for with this budget. and we struggle even to cover the general, the costs of international competitions that take place. so it's like a country looking for if i can use it on the moment the to turn them off. one of those moments when i really wanted to quit boxing was often losing at the tokyo 2020 and then picks up, got you in the it was a huge disappointment and left me in dispatch also to be all just after the an impact. so i sat down and so it's about why i was depressed. so i'm why this has happened to me. more of the total, more i found a new team and a new spirit. we just had really positive results from positive and off to 2 years of training in 2022 together with my new coach. and we made a huge breakthrough for cost of i thought i'll 1st major metal in 40 years and bought

a couple of vetoes despite all the obstacles and the motivating circumstances. there was no time for rest, a new day, same exercises in the same hall. the site for one of each of them is it's not just believing, i know the tell bring back in and impact metal costs of i once i'm bored, started on the block comp. say whether it's will be gold, silver, or bronze, because this bush is really big. i mean book saying, and this thing is possible. you must natalia solid visa and once i've got best selling pick metal, who am i think my coach and i will move up to the professional level books improve as soon as 5 nights, i'm such a big events that it's being held in a football stadium, former world champion, robin crescent, she is focusing professionally in kosovo for the 1st time. sonia to enter, trainer mo, you'll know sallow, kind of don't want to miss the chance to be ringside for the bout. with the hope

that one day don't. yes, it will be in the same position. the cost of our athletes are set to enjoy these. a free travel in the us of 2024, but restrictions elsewhere remained difficult for plenty of us. but the rough estimate and the removal of the visa obligations is very amicable. valgy, i am in robin and i are in different dimensional symbols. i compete and i'm a to book single while he's a professional. and the best way to rubbing has a lot of advantages when it comes to entering competition model. the model to me having a possible from the costs of the there are a range of obstacles. nothing is such that i hope that in the future i'll also be able to compete in on other countries without any problems at all. and then you start the of the of the go, i'm still thing is a bossing event. like this can help raise awareness,

but something needs to change. it might not make a difference politically, but don't yet to and others with the same problems. at least feel that they are not forgotten. on the right almosha and the guy to my dream is to compete to, to a level where all the best books is competes and you're probably going to for on that. and i really believe that invoice. how much? uh, on professional book saying okay, very, very far. uh, some, some from a sporting point of view don't. yes, it is sure. surely cheaper goals, but to continue her successes in international boxing, her passport needs to be accepted everywhere. and for that to happen, a lot still has to change in the political arena, the, the,

the new will tell you, we are happy that we are boxing the story. we have a, getting a visa is more difficult than finding gold plus the 2 year forces. yeah. and for the future in the stories and issues that are being discussed across the country. news african next on d, w. come to the poll. it's an extra year in the south africa. it's outside, young volunteers, opportunity to exchange your own dismiss together. let's come together. let's do it together. when you pull, it's going to be the here. let me change things around the 77.
