6:31 pm
method to try to save ryan those from coaches and involves radioactivity. take a look at how that works. the kindergarten told me on why the but welcome to the program. it's been more than a month since canyons took to the streets and protest at a new finance bill that proposed sweeping tax increases the pressure. i was forced present with him brutal to withdraw the bill and dismisses cabinets. but that has not appease the protest as in response to that defiance police have since bound to protest and narrow be city center. so i think that needs to ensure public safety. george bully is just in time for the action. the 24 year old has attended every
6:32 pm
anti government purchased in a ruby for the last 5 weeks and is still going for him. this is 1st and i was exposed to injustices i to a very early age. i am used to seeing. i was used to see dead bodies our way back from my childhood, and even now growing up to become or young are dogs in this country and which missing the amount of force. excessive force being used by the law enforcement officers. it's a part of the kenya's commission on human rights is at least 50 people have been cute, seen support to started despite the risk attending the demonstrations poses boy every tense, every week on the tubs and focused, i know it's easy to be abducted or it's easy to go missing, so i just find my group of people. we mobilize also, and we continue being with the streets up in t o. a big government listens to our voices
6:33 pm
shortly after our interview with targeted by the police. are we well, not too far from here, a buck, 50 meters, with somebody had been injured and police noticing that a crowd was forming low, at least for canisters of t. i guess i to us all around us. you can see young people who are curious, who might be wanting to participate in the protest, but unable to because of the sheer force that police are using. now young people have gathered here today to say to the government that despite the concessions president to, to made these do want to more, we need to empowerment we'd have tense. what's the point, the school by that a complete. we have seen the governments when the prison was competing, so that you could look for that you would. but if not, you see us know what the one of the seats that you would spell that will probably work. there's just been piling frustration for a long time. so are you here today? i guess, because this particular government has, it's been defend on the camel's back and we're just tired of it. you're comfortable
6:34 pm
and like these for how long, how long? so we need the solution to all these boy under protest as out today, see they will keep the pressure on the state until their demands for change or met . i spoke to protest or inactive is shakira or full. i put it to her that the issues that i am going to protest as much as corruption and impunity. i'm not new and can you or it's, it's not new. and for me to a personal level, i failed to understand why we as the country we've been, i mean, depending on the country for 60, as we've had the new was due to show since uh, 2010. and we like what's, what's we have to show for this independence in terms of development is very many schools in comparison to what we are capable of as a country. and then looking at um, stickler rapture and, and utility that goes on within the political class of, for me, it was
6:35 pm
a point of being informed, getting that knowledge and saying ok, like our, our time is now beautiful. it gives a new of the they meet as of tomorrow, but we don't have to model event not able to get a hold of our country actually. so mean i felt it was important for us to like, wish. now when we have this information, we have the capacity, a lot of us you threaten know, are in place. so we have the time in the energy to push towards picking up and to get to right. and what would it take for, for you to stop the process because the president has made some concessions. so what, what, what are you looking for as um, to be honest, when i, i personally uh, went out to the streets. initially, it was purely to reject the financing before this. i was quite
6:36 pm
a police report and i did not julie and get so much we boards is being on within the political been. and i feel like if the government had had a positive, initial response to that protest, had they likely seems to us from the get go. i don't think that would mean that would have been any further pushed, but anything else that's different. that's our our approaches which i was interested in any bucked while dealt. we move so much violence and brutality and people lost their lives. and so many went in just people so many what you just as i've been, i adopted it actually was. and i opened up the whole menu old last to realize the extent to which they, they is unclear actual and in the impunity. and that it wouldn't need to be people we have, you know, government. so if before, that's what, that's
6:37 pm
a negative response initially. i don't think we would have been able to push towards something up. let us know we're like, i know the political class has proven that they are not willing to concede to do anything to better our country. and as you see what's to push towards thinking, oh, i've had to better. so if that's me, a getting rid of the car in 22 clerks that's in, you know, trying to reclaim a country by putting up and he does, who are going to some people rather than their own creed. i think that is what you're going to be pissed off. 100 ocean, some images of you standing up to, to, to police man. and just wondering, are you not scared? i mean, you talked about that. what's happening to some, some protest is, are you not scared yourself? uh, to be honest, i am scared. but at this particular instance, instance, my rage in a fresh fisher towards the government. i see that all the time. and uh i,
6:38 pm
i sales, i'm a person who, if i have an opinion, it's important for me to add it out. and i felt displeased, cool idea. you should be finding a side dealing with their protest of ends, protecting us. they came against us. so i felt they weren't on their own side. and uh, it was important for me to voice out the frustration that was pushing i so menu to come on to industries to purchase. so yeah, i was feel like the frustration that i seen in regards to the state of the country. it was uh, i see that. yeah. okay. how does that mean? okay, shakira. oh for now. thank you for speaking to us. the . the international organization for migration says 10000000 people have been

6:40 pm
the now with migration and security being key topics of concern here in germany. the country to foreign minister has been in west africa this week seeking districts in berlin's ties with partners that i'm in a bad box trip to cut to sign a goal and co deval. we'll discuss what germany can achieve with it's west africa planned shortly. but 1st he has a report from dw celia furnish, who's been traveling with a foreign minister of the cars. then it goes on. the babble can travel to the country on the edge of the side of the region to hold talks with political representatives. she praised the democratic transition of power of to send a gulf turbulent election earlier this year and pledged future economic cooperation onto like it. we also have great interest to see it because there is a lot of economic growth menu opportunities here on the continental,
6:41 pm
but also in the region. 9 in green technologies and the expansion of infrastructure i spoke to was both security topped the agenda to in view of unrest across the wider. so how the region who's an extra mist violence have to stabilize to neighboring countries. lupina fossil molly and tanisha, people across the entire side of the region has displaced around 3000000 people. europe is concerned about the potential far reaching effects. is i the new model, richard sahu, it's an o in direct neighborhood. some of the problems and challenges of the region. tyrone migration, organized crime, poverty effect was direct, including and you're only limited by all in over. at her next stop in ivory coast babbled visited the international academy for combating terrorism. this year, germany withdrew its troops from neighboring molly and is now closing its last base in these their military regimes. and those countries have asked western forces to
6:42 pm
leave and have instead engaged russian military personnel for security assistance. but there are still other partners in the region, while germany is looking to cost of these relationships, and to not be in school in the region. nations across the saw how are leaning towards the turkey, china, and russia, germany's foreign minister and the bad book, therefore made it very clear during her visit. the germany is not looking for charity work in the region. but that pulled up a ration with senate got an ivory coast in the very heart security interest of germany. during the books visit of orient president less on what to advocate is for increased human and terry an age to help those affected by conflict. the look of us are not, these are the people need it. we also mentioned the risk dispos as 5 re coast, especially at the northern part of us has to end up frontier. as you know, we already receiving more than 60000 refugees from booking. and this is
6:43 pm
a button for the i've already an economy or a center platform liquid. i mean why the at the box mission comes at a challenging time as the influence of the west and the side of the region, wayne's. while other forces gain ground last week. now to increase of the day and analyst with a focus on politics, diplomacy, development, and security in west africa, good to have you on the program, chris and all the german foreign minister has been to set a goal to the ivory coast. how crucial are these 2 countries in the context of political stability and economic development in west africa as the show you know, the uh, economic electric piece. and besides that could be, why is the largest economy in francophone, which doctor guy do you need to use? so that's the economic i'm wanting to re union in the french speaking with dr.
6:44 pm
gonzalez as sending goal is also the security g. i think that only that treatment period used to be, you know, by the colonial era. i used to be the copies of friends, west africa, obviously things of evolved since then. but it's still very crucial to the west in the securing the economic development side. also both countries, how large numbers of migrants from places like molly keen, uh the i know that is around the country. so i would say that the visits industries, housing for tides and vine to really even to countries a, to a lot of um, international interest in rejoining security. as is right now with stuff like, uh now uh, germany says it wants to step up cooperation with the remaining democracies in west africa as a way of containing instability. is that strategy likely to work or? no, no, it's not. so for the same reason that many of the governments that's of
6:45 pm
the west, you know, germany, i knew you again and north american department with some of the right ability. and they did to me. so you will be a whole, you know, you have been with, you've always those of us on, well, you know, the service station or 10 minutes to get those in the indications that he's planning to do the same thing next year. when would you buy is up for reelection, then you have to go, you have a bridge, they fall, read nothing. be that they didn't know that several visual know most of these, you know, god really was to essentially disenfranchise one dies from custody. and the about the change, the new rules again, is to be able to see more than 2 terms. you hockey spa, and i've been there who has been married or storage area and then his grandma was the show and how to deal with these for these goals. so these are the government
6:46 pm
that, you know, wisdom countries need to possibly be desperate. did you move it off? and this also comes out of time when a lot has changed in west africa in recent years, you know, talking about the, the, the military coups, the eviction of western military contingents. how difficult is it for western countries like germany to sort out an effective? so how low west african strategy in this scenario or i think may of the way they uh, really by what i. ready you know what, they need the vision, you know the space with the safety of friends in its mission. but certainly, you, united states, germany, germany doesn't how the massive defense are from development tools to be able to pull up any kind of what they did get it aspire to. you know, in a sense, the call itself from the french are approaching this region because the french
6:47 pm
prisoners became a very top c dot. and so while they were asked to leave the 3 countries in the centers, idaho, but germany doesn't quite house into them. i think 5, follow all the friends. so in the united states as there will be domestic pressures, should you have anyone to come into anything that did the german probably be guided as you know, over strictly terms of financial resources. so i just don't see how, you know jody task with that circle. because we look at these 3 countries. molly, but can of also news? yeah. these are countries where they're also significant security threats from, from his lemme groups. and how can these western countries engage with these countries effectively if that's a stem, the threats that you had, his threats, but also of course we, we know about the, with the concerns about migration as well. are right precisely. i see that the,
6:48 pm
the western framework and you know, specifically, drill can because i do think that in some respects the european what really needs to be the call from the westwood frames. even though of course, there's a lot relation between the 2 cars. the european footprint is so great to buy a feel like we chose a one dimensional weight in terms of what the do in terms of funding, it doesn't really know, you know, elements of the stuff, the stuff, the regions you know about how the, from this free what are you again by region on secure it's pretty was which is essentially better ones is without the guy at this point because now the act training, i'm going to have guides of you know, yeah, i think would be the meetings and all the great windows actually goes the way is this is doing the processing center go with and she has all these, you know, they have brought out some of that. so you don't see a sense of what the you wouldn't be exact trying to accomplish if you are,
6:49 pm
but i did. it will fail because it has been tried before. i mean, it was, nothing has changed in the fundamental we wouldn't necessarily page for those mentors to be effective in the sense that if anybody's, the situation is we don't happen so much. what? so it's not clear to me when germany tends to do differently, which is why i don't see the positive slopes is hardly about, that's fine. okay, thank you very much, chris. that's a comprehensive even though it is quite a lot to, to, and get to talk about on this issue, but we'll have to leave at the increase of commodity. it's been a pleasure getting your insights, i think is the one in south africa, the number of ryan was killed by poachers is again on the rise last year. traffic has killed nearly $500.00 rhinos and increase of 11 percent compared to the previous year. now, scientists devising
6:50 pm
a radioactive tactic to protect the animals, but the method is not without controversy. decision making rhino is radio active in order to save them. this is a world fist. yes. what else? i mean, that's just what we use to tiny little radioactive chips into the whole. it's a painless process. this join animal has been tranquilized, right? of ones, a mainly used in asia and traditional medicine value, rivals the price paid for gold. so the idea is that the value the ryan ahold of yours, the idea is to make a right like a lot easier to attract a guy 3 borders. international crossings of radiation seems that south africa's ports and airports can to take the treated horns. scientists have extensively tested the potential impact on the rhino is health as a off the dosage is
6:51 pm
a fairly low. ready level low enough that it will not an impact on the animal itself in any negative way, but yet it is strong enough that it can be, can do 2 things. one is to range that the horn, toe, t useless, not consumable by and by human beings. this seems to poisonous 1st human consumption for whatever and leads people want use this for the injection will need boosting every 5 years. and he said to stop poachers have been going on for decades. bots have mosley failed. we tried to poison the homestead, didn't look at the whole name, doesn't work and nothing works. but this is something you're going to destroy. you're going to throw it away and it fits or flies people, you know who radio active. so we got to run this. what do you know?
6:52 pm
it's everyone in the rhino will support the idea. the scientists faced ethical hurdles paused by critics of the method. it's not clear what would happen if someone comes to radioactive own. despite all the criticism 20 live, ryan knows already punched as a project back, his hope the process can be replicated to save other spaces endangered by poaching, such as penguins and elephants. the 20 to 24 olympic games get underway in a week in paris. more than 10000 athletes will take pause each with a unique story and a dream of glory, w at one nigeria and take one to 5, who didn't have much luck 4 years ago at the olympics in tokyo. but i was looking to come back stronger. this time in paris, nigeria and try quando. stop. elizabeth, i in a chill is in training. i had to be all in pick games in paris. why
