7:30 pm
much trouble fixing meals. cultural identity meant, let's say together talks about community life on the research is now on the business the, the news africa coming up on the program. what's one i'm expelling a month off on the precedence wants to exports 20000 down the funds to gemini, pushed back for criticism by german government officials of trophy hampton in his country where they are. and what do they do with the spacious that they also punts? how does the menace species that caused some challenges and what other number to be take out to you? for him all from what's one of those press events on ella friends and about with the mattress and the moments also coming up on the show. members of the gun,
7:31 pm
this l. g. b to kill community takes refuge after the are countries, constitutional cause of homes. it's hashed unseen homosexuality bill. we meet some of them being exiled in kenya also in kenya, and we discover the unsung heroes of health care. you need the taxi drive up making a big difference. that small box is kind of the hi, i'm eddie micah junior and you are welcome to the program. now can you imagine thousands of african telephones roman freely in germany? well, this is how the german tab like build picks headed recently after interviewing. what's one of us presidents? well, great, see my cc suggested he could send 20000 data funds through germany. i didn't, he wouldn't take no for alonza. this after breland threw its weight behind
7:32 pm
e u plans to restrict all even bon outright the import of hunting trophies from endangered animals. what's one that says, bonds like these uh, condescending and colonialist, pointing to its own wildlife conservation record. the increase of wild animals that the importance of terrorism, hampton, and trophies to local communities, is estimated that 90 percent of african the funds were wiped out. since the stats of the 20th century logically, due to hanson the ivory trade and poaching. as a result of the funds are listed as spendings at animals, but not in books. one a, where the numbers have increased to more than 150000. that's the wealth largest and the funds population. every year, the government issues a limited number of hampton statements saying this is needed to keep the funds numbers in check and generate income. joining me now is the president of the
7:33 pm
republic of what's one of his excellency and we'll go ahead see my cc was the president. hello and welcome to dw news advocates. so just to be clear, you're not really sending 20000 other funds to germany. are you i might well be able to make them a more than happy to facilitate why would you say that? because i want the jim is to see what we feel go through what we go through experience, what we do and be part of the solution to this problem of not having enough you know of these um, magnificent species around shared the burden. what exactly? yeah. the sacrifices, what's, why not, is going through to keep those elephants as well. we are the only country in the wall that as a set aside, 40 percent of outlined mess for conservation. that's
7:34 pm
a massive sacrifice. you can just think of the opportunity cost of what you know that would be in terms of what are the activities could be undertaken on that land mass. and it should show you what is x by today's want to is we, as we have to protect these animals and alpha, offer them safety and ensure that in times of drought like we are going through a diverse agent. right now, we do our best to mobilize that resources to provide water for them. and we have got to ensure that, that, that these animals eyes free from a disease burden. so that we also have got to make sure that there is a, an impulse, enjoyed comfortably and safely by our tourists and, and you and these sacrifices. another sacrifice is that when
7:35 pm
these animals, particularly i live in this case and overshoot. that one way in terms of that population growth rate, they've been via and stat grazing and motor holding over areas bigger than the geographic space that they've been designated for them. and when they do that you get into the inevitable human wildlife conflict issue. uh, i mean you said this and i quote, this is sad to jeremy and you said this and i quote, this is no joke and it is very easy to sit in berlin and have an opinion about office in botswana. we are paying the price for preserving these animals for the world. and some would argue that was quite a hash tune. aren't you breaking with diplomatic conventions and risking a spot with germany by saying those words? no, no, no, no, no, it's not. it's not at all,
7:36 pm
i'm not i'm not as salt in the german government. i'm not assaulting the german people. i'm talking to position from our perspective that we feel and experience. and so when these opinions i generated out of discourse, i mean lives in the debate. take into consideration with elements come from the people that live with the governments of management. that's all i'm asking. and the notice goal and being candid about and what we experience. so it was no slight to him, jim and friends. what or how would you rather have one to jeremy need to approach this month? because it seems to be clear that you're saying that gemini doesn't really have a deep idea about the timing issue facing with the funds. and it's just sort of
7:37 pm
speaking so to speak. out of new experience, how would you want them to deal with this? well, to get themselves more informed. i mean, even the local german and both of the it was quite a good and honest in, in admitting that and saying that the sometimes that these positions are held by people who don't know enough about what do you go to because she lives. yeah, i'm not gonna sit up on the evidence, but she doesn't put you on a. she knows what it is. so i don't think that there's being sufficient energy expended on understanding. it's like i'm sides look really comfortable. and we live in germany's position can be argued that the warning about limits and the impulse of hunting trophies even sat down to try to protect the funds once upon a time. what's one of, you know, as the funds we apply to indeed to do to successful conservation efforts. now,
7:38 pm
with one can i do you have more than enough. so is what is the way forward that, you know, consent that somehow encouraging hunting is going on. you know, reduce the funds that population and bring them back to an indian just species. and what's one that we're not talking about one to mind and decides who is anybody to come and tell us how to manage them and to manage the hunting when it being so successful at the conservation. particularly when those will one to prescribe. just have no elephants to show where the friends and what do they do with the species that they also hunt. how do they manage species that caused some challenges? and what are the numbers that they take out to you? so when we ask and for consistency and logic, what help then do you need from gemini, the international community?
7:39 pm
ill tell botswana whether it's the funds over population. i want them to understand the problem a new way you want to offer a solution. you begin by 1st understanding the problem, right? and then part of the problem is hold a logical conversation with the people. you know, i don't think this so much about logic model which is about the emotions. but we also need to make sure that our emotions do not undermine our thinking in terms of solutions it'd be prescribed. and this consistency in the way we pronounce to the way we act ourselves. and if that's a position to be held, i. e band,
7:40 pm
trophy hunting and no implication of this trophies. what do you do with the problem because it can only grow in what's on well, how do you advise us? because you've advise us to keep them and not have them out. do i advise that we buy these right? mm hm. so i think it'll be nice um to share with as a bit of your plan, what is, what's the wellness plan? because you need a sustainable solution, right? what, what does that plan, that you could even get help from germany in the international community? well, you know, stop this a, t, the battery and, and, and stuff. but this a and complex the fact til sanctioning of our product stop. it's that would be a big help and to engage in meaningful conversation with ourselves and educate,
7:41 pm
you know, public about what you do and, and this, this would really help. but you know, we can also get into research and development. because we are keen to read it to a knowledge based economy and part of the research development to deal with this problem. maybe to find the means. but what you're going to, you know, mitigate that population growth in a non invasive, non intrusive, non leaf on me. wait. so if um, what's one out? one to 2? um, based on some of the challenges that you mentioned, is it actually feasible? i'm asking is because other people may be wondering, it was the one that has so most of the, of the funds, obviously moving them to germany. it's not really going to be feasible or possible . and i'm sure you know that. but what about neighboring african countries? is there a way to somehow spread them across some countries to, to help less than the bed and all the pressure on what's wanna? and that's it most decided to do to help the sped. and the reason that's why we
7:42 pm
create a cause, a look if you hold the opinion that is so dismantled to us. i don't think it's impossible to move them to gemini. come on. well, if jim, any had wanted these very badly, what's his job and not being able to move to germany? you tell me that so many very heavy, bulky things that have been moved. why could these not be? it all depends on how you value them. right? so don't say impossible because we live in the wild way. we want to eliminate the impossible and make it possible. i don't think it possible. okay, so just to be to have gemini said today that, well, we actually need a couple of other funds will help. uh, get it here, you'd be very happy with that. not a couple of a few thousands, couple of thousands of the least. right. we're more than ready. my community is already. i've been conversing with them all, raising the hands coming, get some from us. come get some of them us but you know,
7:43 pm
the one thing wasn't site all, you know, i'm african, andrea and africa. there's that resources and natural resources. and entitlement is heritage is good value. it's not as if i want to want them to give a weight that resource. i'm trying to get people to focus on what is a must have problem for us. right? right. as the president tablet before i let you go, uh, you've got the elections coming up towards the end of the yeah. what's your most pressing issue and what do you wish to achieve? of course, aside, so trying to get yourself where you liked it the most pressing. well, the motive is not given so much by getting myself as a person elected is getting my part to be elected. that's what's really pressing because it is a battery, in my view of policies that most promising for me was on. but one of the biggest problems and challenges that we have. and it cuts across parties is employment. we
7:44 pm
have uh, you know, used to fit into we have a 60 percent of our police, the young people, we've educated them, we've kept them healthy, relatively, and at that very aspirational that energized and it's a structural economy. the opportunity is the economy. that's what we need to really open up. and that's why when you look at the number of jobs generated by photographic exclusively, even in the areas where photograph a country is not suitable, started for that having to tourism is not suitable. and we look at the opportunities of jobs, jobs in, in, in the controlled hunting spaces. the mini mall, particularly when you put in place in this trees and of this kind that would enhance the value and you see the value chains and for the hunting. and you know, and that's what you need to help it and that is a major priority for me. and we always have priorities,
7:45 pm
water. and because of the drought prone area off of that in africa and, and the but jobs jobs are really important. and right. so right, we go to the elections as is customary in october and that, that they dates. there is nothing unusual and puts on a. we will have an election. we will have account will have a declaration of a, went out there would be a syrian and what's on the continues and data and starting remains. and then moving forward, how would you want your relationship with, with jeremy and in, and indeed other countries to be like, you know, looking at the current sort of back and forth between what's why and you have any for instance our, this is a german is not defined by events, it may give a clear we have a strong bilateral relations, but a strong the provider relations that uh, you know, are uh, focused, premised on
7:46 pm
a mutual benefit disability. and so we'd want them to grow that, but we want to grow as these relations grow in the same way as we want to grow. gemini was a strong, a stable pa for gemini, is a strong steve of possible china. but we want it to start repeating towards any a balance in, in the global word order. and so, and how can it be a safe for us when some parts of the world excruciating the pool and some parts of the world exposure to the rich and powerful? it's certainly not safe. so we want that to be understood, embraced accepted by germans as we want by everybody else. so what do we want for ourselves? is all one for the germans and reduce the germans. what they want for themselves is one the one for us. because x and, and see what great see my cc precedents of the republic of atlanta. thank you very
7:47 pm
much for your time. thank you. have a good day. you're watching the the news africa still to come of the taxi driver in northern can you ask who is his communities backbone when it comes to rural health care much fast. let's go to you've gone that way. active as this week, filed an appeal to the supreme call to about a controversial entity legislation adopted last year. now we only have a sponsor constitutional court upheld the law that was stripped. fundamental rights from individuals who identify us, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or korea. as the results of the community has been left prone to more violence, if you're in the say about discrimination and abuse, korea ugandans are leaving the homes and families behind flee into neighboring countries. either combining reports from nairobi, can you send them away,

7:50 pm
i'd say okey money is a lawyer working with the queer community. if you feel that your life is at risk to run to where you think you're safe, but there's no conviction or guarantee of that. but the minute you step on kenyan, so you're still governed by below the sudden the clothes email peanut cord. you're still governed by the same policeman on the same communities the tub and entering the late fee and hatred for homosexuals at the safe house, champagne the latest to arrive on the grease to speak to us. the trust. gentleman finally made it to kenya through support for my doing the. she tells me a lot of a queer friends are still experiencing abusing you, gone to abuse, assuming that to what you suffered at the hands of her family. if and my mother told me, if i know the iris, you feel going david's to prison, you're going to die, they're going to kill you from there. even maybe to cobra,
