the, the business, the, the news line from berlin, u. s. presidential by gives an emotional farewell as fast as the torch of the democratic party. decala harris or really to tom are you as president, has given a standing ovation ahead of his speech counting his am harris's achievements in office also coming up the u. s. as israel stands behind a new se speier proposal that can bridge the differences with some of the secretary of state antony blinking calls on a mazda accepted on a tour of the middle east spot,

the palestinian militant groups as the proposal goes against earlier agreement and civil war and some don has left half of the country's population facing famine . as peace talks to ends, the conflicts dongle calls, gro, to open key border crossings, and let in desperately needed a b u. n. warranty, through john faces the worst, the world's largest hunger crisis. the welcome to the show i'm nicole fairly. he was president obama has given an emotional speech and the democratic national convention to endorse counseling harris as his parties. presidential candidates your rally the crowd around the harris campaign thing. a vote for her was a vote for democracy just 2 months ago by and had expected to clinch the democrats nomination for a 2nd term at the convention. but concerns about his age and fitness,

let the party to turn his back on him. since his withdrawal from the res buys. a of in harris as managed to lift the party in the polls ahead of elections and november . it was a rock star as welcome as coma iris appeared on stage in chicago. but if the rest of the week is about fighting for the future, monday night was also about remembering the past. and i want to kick us off by celebrating our incredible president joe biden. h wasn't the speech by didn't had planned to give which it was one that found receptive and loving audience. the president clearly emotional reflected on his legacy and the tax, donald trump. but ultimately was a message of hope and well marketing the end of biden's, half

a century in politics are ready for free for democracy in the were really to work on the wires in general. the when i gave my best for 50 years, like many of you, are getting my heart and soul organization. and i've been blessed a 1000000 times reserve, the support of the american people. the convention will see a role called of democratic grandees addressing the american people. monday night

was a ton of the last woman to face. donald trump, this is our time america. this is when we when we bring the outside the convention center, it was more cons donation than celebration of thousands of pro palestinian demonstrates as long as the criticism of the policy. and this responds to gaza. the democrats and now looking ahead to those things, speech by the presidential hopefuls as joe biden passes on the leadership of the party and finally propose to exits the political stage. well, joining us now from chicago is political strategist. you will just find the lar,

he worked on bark, obama's campaigns in 20082012 as closely following bmc where the former president and his wife were speaking to 9. welcome back to the w. you now the obama's endorsement of harris back in july was key to her securing the democratic presidential nomination. so i'm even saying help. avoid an ugly internal fight. what can we expect from them tonight? well, brock obama continues to have great weight within the democratic party. is one of the most popular figures, of course, and so it was very helpful for couple of harris to have his support. also shut obama support the i just state that brock obama is going to give a speech tonight. of course, praising here's talking about the relationship a talking about the type of leadership that people can expect from her. but i think he's also capable of making the argument. so if you compare the current situation, 2024, with the situation 2012, when brock obama was running for reelection both now and then the economy was not

where the president or complet harris was hoping the economy would be. so i think he's able to make an argument to people to say, look, i've been there, i know what it takes to restructure our economy, to help make sure that middle class americans have all the necessary things that they need. and so i think that is particularly helpful um for commer harris in order to get that doors and from brock obama and have the case that she is capable of putting the economy back on the right track. yeah. and from what we've seen from the harris campus, a very energetic, very optimistic campaign, is she modeling her campaign in a way after obama? so i think she should, and that's not me saying because brock obama ran a particularly successful campaign, was part of it. but i think brock obama back then made a key argument to american voters and he said, who is fighting for you? is it me? who's always been part of the middle class and helping people to get into the

middle class? or is it mitt romney? this is back in 2012. what is a millionaire? and who's going to be fighting for the millionaire class? and i think that's the same argument that come with her. she's making as economy, has nothing recovery as quickly as they have told. she can make the argument that she is part of the middle class. she's always help people get into the middle class . the same is of course true for scrap and joe biden. and so i think she can make the argument that donald trump is fighting for millionaires and billionaires like him. you can make the argument around the tax cuts that trump has to post and propose. and so that is, i think, the playbook or the page from the playbook, they come or hair should copy back from the obama place in 2012. yeah, we saw that argument made on her behalf by a o. c. last night actually. and i wanted to shift and look at the pro palestinian groups that are asking harris to support a permanent ceasefire and an arms embargo. there were huge protest outside of the bmc yesterday. and does she have any plans to propose or offer any substantial changes or tweaks, at least to the us policy in the middle east,

as it stands today? as walking around the convention venue yesterday. and product swell, full swing, i think you already have a new new piece. now i think for, for some of the protesters, the question is, so are they gonna support come with harris, their civil uncommitted delegates who are supposed to be wasting their opinion. whether we're going to do that in the conference all or the convention hall or not . so, you know, still still still to be seen, but i think cala harris has to be very careful and, and sort of walk a tight line. is she gonna give it instead of tell people what they want to hear? i don't think she should do that. i don't think she's going to do that. i think the line that democrats are going to walk is to say, she is typically empathetic, maybe more empathetic, as joe biden is on that issue. she's going to listen, but in the end, she will have to do what is necessary in order to win the selection. i think the case that she's going to make is look a chunk presidency. what the way worse for people over in the middle east and my

presence will be so i don't think she should given i don't think it's a smart little strategy. and i think the democrats need to do everything to make sure that whatever we're seeing on the left hand side right now is not escalating. because that could have tremendous ripples in this convention for narrative is that the convention under the democratic leadership has gone. rogan out of control, and you mentioned donald trump, there for a fleet. he will be campaigning in a town, in michigan, with historic links to white extremism. what message is he sending with that? of course, with donald trump, i'm not quite sure what method she's sending. i think there is a message that could be sending that would tremendously help us campaign, which is of course, the economy is not on the right track. there pulls out that say, you know, overall the countries on the wrong track, almost 7080 percent of americans say countries on the wrong track. and on the other hand, of course, the economy is still not deliver as soon as he's talking about the economy. i think

is polls are going to continue to go up, but you can't seem to help himself because he's calling com. i hear his name's, he's making suggestions that he's better looking than calmly. here's. i think that is, might be something that the image size of the room that he's speaking in right now, but i don't think that's politically helpful to swing voters right now. if you look at the polling, people still have a 10 point favorability ready for trump when it comes to handling the economy or inflation. i think that's a sweet spot for donald trump if he continues to hammer that message. i think he very well mike, window selection, but again, if even for years off it goes back to the greatest hits uh, 20162020 calling or corporate comma, or saying that the election was a break back in 2020. i think he's losing those important swing voters as a political strategist, julia spangler. thank you so much. bye. so let me cease fire talks and of ending the war between israel and am awesome guys are continuing in the middle east. he was secretary of state anthony blinking is now in guitar as

part of a diplomatic tour that is pushing for a troops earlier on tuesday. he was an agent where he met with president of dell. for tile cc blinking says israel has accepted a bridging proposal, as you call, did her mazda the militant group that committed the october 7th. her attacks has accused israel, of making changes to the proposal that go against what her mom agreed to in early july. and it is unclear whether or not the group will accept the new proposal of the car. im allegory is a cairo bass journalist and he told us why i'm also saying the current proposal on the table goes against earlier agreements. yeah, well it seems that they're not very happy with what. busy onto the police and caused the rich richey, d. uh they say we had an agreement in july was to buy a proposal at that time. and then disagreements. there was a group that there was

a 2 phases of exchanging, is ready to hostages and punish, to be in prison. this 1st in a 6 month and 6 weeks periods of a ceasefire. then this extending to a permanent ceasefire. and now they say in this friction proposal, and there is new to months, find it on the old package that was until the break to the previous proposal. the main points, how much is unhappy was that there seems to be no more guarantee for a permanency for this package. this has to be negotiated to the meet that time. and the 2nd thing that they are not separate was, is that that is, that is not a phone withdrawal and 5 is ready to from the gaza strip. they won that remain in education border to the gaza strip and also in the middle because it's different according to the device that got us to pick to northern and southern parts, alga laurie and cairo, let's look at some other stories making headlines around the world today. and north

the communities. and especially for people who from pharmacy, done the depend of the money to tell you on a does that not enough, it's one of the was a prep. richard g prizes overtime to let you know for the food more than 600000 people have fled into neighboring shot since the war broke out. in april last year, 8 organizations have been overwhelmed. food assistance is chronically under funded . only 19 percent of the world food programs funding calls have been met by doing that. countries over the board and span situation is even with salmon, has been declared in a time. coal, samsung containing nearly half a 1000000 displays people. you the city of a sasha, north stuff and slasher has been under siege by the rapid support forces, making it impossible for people inside to receive any 8 when we had the image. so,

so for an student in a refresher and they had to stop the project there. after that it was the total was boom. it's hard to imagine what the people are. we take care of. i've been, i've been through 11 year old mohammed and he was injured by a temporary, you know, sasha, and then got malaria on the way to some, some come to some of the desperate and then again and they didn't. we generally need 8 organizations to come and help us with starving here. hunger makes our children sick and with the rain and see what we can only give them not to eat hunger. make my son in like this. he was the head back at the hospital and chat. how yeah, it is relief to do it has finally getting better. but she's worried when she thinks about her family, she had to leave behind. and so down the united nations has described the latest, forced closure of some one and a half 1000 in jails in nicaragua, as quote, deeply alarming. the latest move by nicaraguan authorities will see mainly

religious associations shuddered, and it brings the total number of band civil society organizations to more than 5000 or closure, as part of a major cracked down by president daniel ortega and on opponents leaves and joe's media outlets and private universities without legal status phoenix, one of the out as a prominent nicaraguans human rights advocate and the president of the foundation for the freedom of nicaragua. felix, welcome to d. w. now the nicaraguan president has now shut down more than $5000.00 and jails. we just heard of there what is the practical impact this is happening on the country. a cold for highlighting this is a best blow to civil society. is an attack on the very essence of a free society, but also the most vulnerable. in addition to religious organizations, 23 percent of the 5100 organizing shutdown used to cover unintended areas of the country in dos of water surfaces,

health and education over 600000 children. i need to get our receive educational services from these angels. now many of the groups targeted were religious entities, but the crack on also head chests, club, small traders and pensioners. and they will now all have their assets seized. how to make sense with this? it doesn't make any sense if the paranoia of the sun denise the dictatorship, they started actually with my organization in june 2018. the think tank that i used to direct was the 1st, but unfortunately not, not the last uh now we are seeing even organizations that were closely tied to the origin. so the southern east, the part, the, for example, come the 10th organization veteran movements for the sunday needs. the party were also dismantled, which only can be explained to the extreme per our noise. that the regime has been hit hard by international sanctions from the you from the west. is this correct?

or maybe also a way for ortega to raise money, seizing all those assets. yes, it is. it's a, it's a, it's a big part of that, but it's not the main component. a visa that needs to regina is a clipped aquatic regina. they are making a lot of money by giving mining concessions to china by making corrupt deals with all the clap, the category games around the world. so i seen that the prime no. yeah. and also the systematic, you are ready cation of free voice, as an independent thought is the main motivation of these crack down. what i want to talk about how we got here, because not everybody might be as familiar as you are with the history of, of nicaragua. ortega was hailed as a revolutionary when he rose to prominence for helping overthrow the nicaraguan dictatorship and 1979. now today, many you among them? see ortega is a dictator as oh, right. how did he become the very thing that he wants fought against? only my personal opinion. i've always been uh,

someone against ortega himself. i think he was a hypocrite. however, he's on, the brother criticize him just a few months ago and his brother easing house arrest. so that you know way explains the extreme par note overtake none of the original founder. so be signed the lease to move and agree with our tech i. today. he's on why real side of what he or he's the vice president of the country 5 of his children have minutes to pose or high ranking positions in government. which clearly explains that he'd turn into the same thing that he criticized. and it was precisely because the democratic transition, when he got out from of the war to pc and he said i was very weak and we must have made that think that i would never had the strong, you know, craddick institutions. but the things that we're seeing today are on president that the cut our history, nicaragua has a troubled history of failed for an interventions. when you try to challenge ortega, you ended up in prison, do you see any real challenge to his group on power?

as i said, that the fact that he knows that he's not popular at all has thrown him from all what people label, label him before he's been dictator. basically he tried to have a side of democracy decades ago. now he does a need that's beside because he knows that he doesn't have any legitimacy. and he's in this very weak because he's on party is afraid a lot of the founding members of his movement are afraid. and then he cut out one of relations. they're resilient, and we are hopeful that a we, at, at some point will see the credit change. however, i must admit that these precise points or data has been able to eradicate all the position parties and old independent voices. i hope that this is not a long term situation. would you consider launching another challenge even after everything you've been for? well, in my case, i have been declared as they bless my role at these points to support those to remain inside the country. doing a political position from exile as

a state. this person is very complicated. however, i believe that young caroll wants the inspiring students who went to the streets the, the youth and they just move at the we must move on inside the country. they continue all the very silently at this point. they continue to hold for democracy and change, and i believe i'm optimistic that change will come. the next friday, i got a president at the foundation for the freedom of nicaragua. thank you so much for the time that you gave us and all the best to you. thank you to go and some more headlines for elena, someone be arranging ambassador over the closing of a german language institute and tear on calling for his immediate reopening. randy and me to say the closure was in retaliation for germany shuddering and his phonics center in hamburg and july. berlin accused of of being an outpost of ron's. the offices in india. thousands of people have blocked railway tracks in
