i'm lots like a welcome to the program. indian prime minister never under moody has came victory in india is weeks long parliamentary elections. setting them up for a reyes, a ton of voters have defied predictions of a landslide victory bodies, n d, a alliance of policies, one majority empowerment but his hindu nationalist party. the b j p fell short of an outright majority. the and the ranger moody is greeted by crowds of supporters after winning his seat again in the city of vera nazi in the northern indian state of utah per dash. but his can do nationalist b, j. p parties lost half it seats in the belt, whether state, which had been a vast june of support and the 2 previous elections. this helped to fuel is loss of

an outright majority in parliament. moody will now have to rely on his coalition partners and the national democratic alliance to make policy decisions and pass laws addressing party members at b. j. p. headquarters. the populace leader held the wind as an historical feet. despite the set back, he becomes only the 2nd indian leader to win a 3rd consecutive term. dounia victory is a win for the world's largest democracy, some sort of the jeep. but the off position is also celebrating after surpassing expectations and exit pull predictions. the congress party calls the substantial gains made by the opposition coalition, a rebuke of motives mixed economic records, and polarizing politics. the main thing that this election is that in the country it has unanimously and clearly stated. we do not want mr. not in the movie

. and mr. um its shop, but they involved in the running of this country. we do not like the way they were on this country. critics accuse modi's hindu nationalist party of deepening divisions within the country, including through the use of inflammatory language such as describing the countries $200000000.00 plus muslim minority as infield traders for some reduction in b. j. p. seats is a relief for others. the prospect of a 3rd term brings renew, fears for their future, and the constitutionally secular country. how much will he be like? i want to see this country as it once was. this country belongs to him, do some of them 6 in christian said, be a say you gotta be a. so bye bye. everyone wants to live in harmony. we want peace in this country. over the course of the last 6 weeks, more than 640000000 people cast their ballots, making india's general election,

the largest in the world. richard rosa works with us india policy at the center for strategic and international studies. i asked him how moody with fair, having to accommodate the wishes of coalition partners should be okay. um he done some work in the months leading up to like you need more in the world. thought that he had a relatively easy path to victory, to try to rebuild connectivity with some of the regional parties that, that made me kind of followed by the wayside. what a master stroke it looks like now, because if he hadn't done that, it would be a much bigger scramble. trying to find some of these regional parties that were joined the closure. but 2 of the largest members of the school is nice pulled together, and kind of been known for being in the goal is in and out and back in and back out . so it's going to take a lot of work to maintain that something that you really point out. he hasn't had to do that. they voluntarily brought some coalition partners on some of the ministries over the last 10 years have been held by some of the smaller parties are considered as also underneath the umbrella. but, you know, again, that's been uh, a very disparate group sometimes in sometimes out. so it's going to take

a lot of management as you, as president joe biden has issued an executive order to restrict a regular migraines, claiming asylum at the us. mexico border. the measure it takes effect when irregular crossings average at least $2500.00 a day. it enables police to arrest people crossing the border with our, with our station, and gives judges, states judges the ability to return people to their home countries trying to make it into the united states before the executive order takes effect. the us government says these are just some of the 3 and a half 1000 people who are illegal across the us, mexico board. every day. this action is aimed at bringing the number down. it plugged into the mesh at when the 7 day everidge for daily crossings exceeds 2 and a half 1000. the silent claims one to be accept. those attempting to cross

typically will be deported any. but i think the only thing i ask is that they give us a chance because we have families, we have children to provide for media. we're not coming here for fun. if we had all we needed, we wouldn't be here in the movies. and those are the only alternatives to cross because we don't have the means to go by like, god bless you that they, they were going as well. just as it was hard to cross all of mexico. again, it would be equally hard to read toward a fellow, but i'm going to the regular migration is a major concern for them. the reconverted months before the presidential election. joe biden wants to address the issue and just hoping to slay mobile test with it. his actual help us to gain control over more restore order into the process. this band remained in place until the number of people trying to enter legally is

reduced to a level that our system can affect and we manage. carry out this order consist of with or responsible is international. every one of them. however, it some clear how this old a little looking practice the measure itself is fairly, very significant potentially potentially. but there are a lot of questions about how it will be enforced and whether the us, whether uh, use is enough money and enough legal support. it's almost certainly going to be challenged in court in the us needs tremendous, tremendous resources to be able to support people on flights where people, you know, from china context on india, cuba all over the world are appearing at the border. it's very expensive and also requires a lot of diplomatic for this to get these flights. and it's unlikely that the

threats of debarkation will do to people have travel thousands of kilometers from trying to reach a better life in the us. so what this is executive order, i mean in practical terms for people wanting to seek asylum at the us mexico border . i aust maureen, male, vice president for programs at the washington office on latin america and n g o promoting human rights in the region. so basically what it means is if you want a real chance of accessing asylum, you need to go through the ports of entry and at the border and make sure you have an appointment the final ministration implemented as of last year. the use of a c p one app, a smartphone app that's only available in 3 languages that you have to get an appointment to enter the united states. currently there only 1450 appointments available every day. the backlog is dire. people can wait months to get an

appointment, and then even the appointment could be a few months out. so what you're going to have in practice is a lot more people waiting on the mexican side of the border in often very precarious and dangerous situations where they could be subject to extortion can nothing other crimes for the chance to cross into the united states. if you opt across in between the ports of entry, you would have to have either a very severe case of persecution, the editor of trafficking, or being unaccompanied child to have a real chance of accessing asylum in the united states. does this violate us law? yes, i mean, i think us law and international norms which the you in reference to the agency also flight today. say that once you're on us soil, you have the right to seek protection in the united states. it's important to remember that president trump had a similar asylum than he tried to put in force and other restrictions on accepting

asylum that were also struck down in courts and it's expected. there's no reason to say that this wouldn't happen again. we know organizations are already preparing legal challenges for this band because they consider it illegal. now button has set the threshold for these restrictions to kick in $2500.00 border crossings per day. can you put those numbers into perspective for us? that's extremely low. currently, the average is about 3500 crossings a day. i don't think in the past 2 decades, we're seeing less but half days actually go below that number of apprehensions. and it's important. remember that to get the van to, to get this lifted, you have to have crossings go below 1500 crossings a day. we haven't seen those numbers since, during the call, the pendant making 2020. so it's a very low threshold, which means basically asylum will be hard for individuals crossing in between the ports of entry for, for, for many,

much time. so it should something else be done. do you think to limit the number of irregular migrants or does the us have capacity to actually process higher numbers of people? absolutely more should be done. i think we, many organizations including ours, i've called for years to one. look at the reasons why people are coming from latin america and elsewhere. worked with governments in the region on their response, including other government set up provided legal pathways for migrants and asylum seekers. but domestically, there's a lot that needs to be done to invest in our own integration port system. it's understaffed. there is a enormous backlog, which means it takes years for asylum cases to go through the system. and we'd need to invest in both that system and the system at the ports of industry so that people can be processed in an orderly manner. transported to different parts of the country where they have family or other destinations and really work on

coordinating between state local, municipal governments to better support asylum seekers and help them navigate the system in an orderly way. thank you very much for your analysis. that was maureen maya with the washington office on latin america. thank you. the police here in germany say it is 5 people have died in severe flooding in the south of the country. the situation in bavaria and areas close to the done you is described as the most critical rescue is try to reach people left stranded by the rising waters. in the center of ratings, bug down the river is threatening to bust. its banks will start using the bavarian city a trying to buckle against record high water levels. we don't have sufficient dikes, and slots bar is as low close it's of the results of extreme weather that they

worry will soon become the new normal most the time periods between these catastrophes are getting shorter and shorter. so of course, something has to be done. they've already done a lot here to protect against the flooding. they've built good barricades, but there will come a time when the water can no longer be held back up like i think especially from my generation. it's like. c not even an option to not think of climate change because you see it right there in the climate change protest who's brought the concern straight to the very in the democracy to when he visited to assist you to observe the flood damage shouldn't bomb before giving a stop warning, i mean, but it's gonna be the effect of the last few days and weeks make the situation especially dangerous. we are not in the clear,

in fact the opposite and we're working hard to make sure that we're able to withstand the next few days of a stay in l sweat in bavaria. the west has passed. so now residents and the town of d doff is starting to clear up the times and assess the damage from then you can see from the door just how powerful the water was. thousands of people have been forced to leave the homes and stuff in germany and recent days as well to levels and the done, you continue to swell for the evacuations are expected. and before we let you go, here's a quick reminder of our top story. and m prime minister under, under moody, has claim victory in india is parliamentary elections, setting him up for over a 3rd time. notice n d a alliance of policies has one majority in parliament, but his hindu nationalist proxy, the pgp has support unsure of its own outright majority
