12:00 am
florists is looking for new oil supply, us counting the costs on our 0 the a diverse range of stories from across the globe from the perspective of a network john and analogy era. ah, this is al jazeera ah, hello, i'm marianne was with the news, our life from london coming up in the next 60 minutes, a military campaign that saw the slaughter of tens of thousands of herero, a number of people. germany acknowledges it, actions in namibia with genocide, d. r. c's volcano, refugee 1000, the shelter, a neighboring lawanda,
12:01 am
and now face and uncertain future. my 1st thought was that they are going to torture him to death. about a rational position needed on a chicken of sky a tells al jazeera why she feared the was when she learned journalist journalist from one of which had been detained and the u. s. capital was stormed and lives were lost. but senate republicans blocker bill to investigate on javin after sport . japan extends a state of emergency and it was less than 2 months before they fixed. begin and we'll have the license from 4. so i had of the champions league final between mount justice city and chelsea. ah, welcome to the program. germany is officially acknowledged for the 1st time that it carried out to genocide in namibia during its colonial rule, from $884.00 to 1915 namibia was on the german occupation. and note as german south
12:02 am
west africa. in 19 o 4 people from the indigenous harrow, a nama tribes rebelled against the seizure of the land, and cattle and military administration had called for their extermination by 19. 0 wait up to 80 percent of the arrow. a number of people had been killed in 2015 germany began negotiating, settlement with the may be in government and an agreement was on thursday. the german government has now formerly apologized and agreed to provide a $1000000000.00 in aid to newman be. but his address chappelle now reports not enough for the victims, and the defendants, as their land and cattle were being taken from them, the little people took a stand against their german colonizers at the start of the 20th century. what came next, still haunts the descendants, more than a century later. between 19041908. the germans tried to
12:03 am
exterminate the nama, and had no people executing thousands and driving other tribes. people into the desert. survivors were used a slave labor and concentration camps, around a 100000 people were killed and this genocide, germany has finally accepted responsibility. it sighs and how it to deny. we will now officially call these events what they were from today's perspective, a genocide in doing so, we also acknowledging our historical responsibility in the light of germany's historical and moral responsibility. we will ask namibia and the descendants of the victims for forgiveness. berlin's agreed to provide $1300000000.00 in the next 3 decades in the form of development projects. some had to call it a betrayal of their ancestors because the deal did not include a direct payment of compensation. these have nothing to do with reparation.
12:04 am
they call it no, not reparation, but he got reconciliation. so this is a kind of new, new, new art of, of, of development, age and development, age goes to this government, and this government of namibia, as we know, is a corrupt government in this money will never reach the nama. and there are people that, especially though the dissidence of these 2 nations, that way we say no to this reconciliation, we want to reparation. we want to talk directly to the german government, half of the nama people, and 80 percent of the head were killed. much of maybe as arable land is still owned by descendants of german settlers, some could stand to benefit from the announcement as money will be allocated for land purchases and vocational training. now maybe as government says, the move is a step in the right direction. to heal, we have to learn to live with the scars,
12:05 am
but for descendants of those who are either killed or marched into the color, hurry desert to starve to death. it's a wound that may never heal and are chappelle al jazeera. joining us now via skype from sweden is heading now, but from the northern africa institute, the former director of the may be an economic policy research unit. so why has it taken so long for the german government to recognize these atrocities as a genocide? because it's a tricky issue from a german perspective, it might have far reaching implications and it auto touches on a project. 3 off, denial is some which was longer, the dominant perception in german society, germans read pain, to go back to what they perceive to the good old days, which were never good,
12:06 am
maybe old, for the not mind of hero and others who felt the brunt of german colonialism, but german swear. really hot, trying not to look brick into what the initial steps towards the holocaust where in the colonial roots they executed at the beginning of the 20 century. now the herero and nala people had to, always speaking just before that the report you're talking about what took place. and so you had 80 percent of people that were kill tens of thousands, but then around 20 percent of the original population were had their land sees problem, the livestock was taken from them. and so how has that would have been the consequences of that for the indigenous people in the area today who live in dia, poverty? the consequences are very obvious in ordinary daily life in the media. colonialism
12:07 am
is not past its present. they are confronted everyday with friends of private property owned by white predominant is still german speaking, commercial harmless. the land of their ancestors is the land in private possession of white settlers. so colonialism is very much alive in their daily perspectives. and that is the main challenge, including the american government. this is why to many of those who are the indigenous people, certainly the representatives of the herrera and nama people are not accepting the outcome of these talks because they want official reparations. and they want the land back indeed. and then is one of the crucial issues and
12:08 am
their german foreign minister, high call. last in his statement, which you part, really reproduce was referred to as chester of gesture of recognition. now, that's an insult to injury. if you admit a genocide, even if you add that it's on political moral grounds and not in legal terms, then you can't get away with a gesture of recognition. you need to do much more. and the $1300000000.00, which are promised for the next 30 years, is that among which roughly germany already in the last 30 years offered in development 8. now that's not really convincing sign offering loss as the no mine that every row are really upset about that. all right, thank you for helping us understand her story and providing us with some analysis on this heading mill. but joining is that from the north africa institute, baron,
12:09 am

12:11 am
which is prepared to distribute the people keep arriving to you registering at this desk. the whole line new arrivals waiting, everyone sitting on the floor around here as arrived within the last few hours. one of the things is the uncertainty. people here really one a need to be in their home, but they have no idea if or when it will be safe to go back to them. now the united nations refugee agency is expressed concern about the crisis in ethiopia. more than 10 right region. their reports, hundreds of refugees have been taken from displacement cams by soldiers and human rights groups saying warring sides of destroyed schools which have been used as military bases. show stratford reports, computers smashed equipment stolen, a place of learning, destroyed. this is just one of many schools which according to a report by human rights watch, has been damaged by both government and opposition forces during fighting. in the t
12:12 am
gray region of northern ethiopia. the organization accuses government troops of using a high school as a military base. a key part of this is obviously going to be ensuring accountability for the abuses which these communities have seen happen. as i said, there is a real fear of returning to school because forces that have abused and have destroyed the schools often around fighting beginning t gray 6 months ago. that's when the open government, backed by its ally era, troyer launched a military operation accusing the t great people's liberation front of attacking its federal military bases in the north and the stabilizing the country. the us has been a strong ally, a vc oak, his government for years, but he's growing frustrated with a scale of to fighting and widespread reports of sexual violence. the senate foreign relations committee was told on thursday that an estimated 2000000 people
12:13 am
that being forced to flee the homes and 5200000 people are in urgent need of assistance. the united states condemns and the strongest terms, the brutal killings, sexual violence, including gang rape, forced removals want destruction of civilian property. us president joe biden has called for an immediate cease fire. the senate has unanimously called for the withdrawal of ethiopian troops and secretary of state antony blinking, says, what is happening amounts to ethnic cleansing. if yoga has been worn to the faces, strong economic sanctions with the fighting continues, but it has dismissed us interference in its internal affairs. the red cross which is supplying food to around 40 villages in the north is farming essentially like seeds and fertilizer are running low. are where the situation has hurt us a lot and we all left her homes with nothing. and our children have been exposed to
12:14 am
different diseases. there is no school. all the children and women are hiding in the mountains. the united nation says people in t gray of facing families. if the fighting doesn't stop charles matter, 0. well, red cross fears that famine could lead to severe long term food shortages into gray . an estimated 1000000 displays, people are relying on the support of host communities who already have limited resources. many of last what they had to looters and international committee of the red cross analysis found that families who cannot afford to eat just 2 meals a day will soon have to come back to one meal a day. and then of course, the violence continuing violence is making it difficult for people to find any work to earn a living. the i c r c m e c o, p in white crosses, distributing seeds and fertilizer to 16000 families in the central zone of to great to help improve. next jazz crops were hope is that it will allow people to continue
12:15 am
farming at least, and help boost next year's crops, solomon test seeds being distributed to try and meet that goal. the red cross is saying that the response has been positive so far. people have the trauma over the timing of the eighty's still very much in their psyche. what they were worried the most of the country started and as everything was going on, what stresses them the most is the lack of being able to produce food. so this has driven them to continue farming to continue plowing their lands. and the reaction has been overwhelming. as soon as we distributing it to the same people starting to use it starting to plant them, seeds tested will be planted in june, people up and pads. the trauma of the famine is very much in the psyche and people are trying to food in food insecurity. situation in watching the news, our life from london much more than i had on the program called jim elise for full after a month across columbia. this possibly be the end for benjamin netanyahu. israeli
12:16 am
media reports it and you comission government's been ugly. and while number one, dennis hi, ashley bob. she explains why she won't be following me a soccer in boy crossing the media at the french. oh. a russian president has dismissed the international outrage over the diversion of a ryan at jet to batter rues, which led the arrest of a distant journalist and his girlfriend who on board both and now languishing in jail or a challenge at our port. look, if there's a message that these leaders want to give here. if that russia has got alexander lucas shank is back in the southern russian city of sochi. bloody may appreciate gave his support to the bela lucy and presidents account to the plain incident that has so outraged the west to use fellowship. but you have always some ill wishes
12:17 am
you know about them. i will inform you in the light of our trust based relations. i've bought some documents. i will show you them to understand better the situation . some, there was a time when they landed the plane of the oblivion president, let's go to the president of the plain and nothing just silence. whatever these men really think of each other. russia needs that a ruth as a loyal buffer to the west, and lucas shanker would like the already be consigned to the history books without kremlin aid in the hague. the women intent on replacing him after last year's disputed presidential elections. he, you, lead is considered fedloan at he cannot scout bella ruth, his leader in exile. she's trying to make the most of the current anger with lucas shanker joins involvement when you conference will do more powerful. and of course, the government, i'm sure they will put as much effort as necessary to start the investigation on the case about flight and recognizing the regime as to risk on
12:18 am
sunday. a ryan their flight from greece, lithuania, over passing battle, reaching s face with forced to land in midst with a fake bomb threats about a roofing opposition. journalist and his girlfriend were taken off the plane and arrested the incident to certainly change the tone. he, you politicians, have called it a hijacking. we will make sure that the pressure is maintained and that we hit them hardest where we can hit them, which is, course in their stature and are standing there. well, of everything while europe's need is drop sanctions. russia's ation or authorities a warning that russia rooted planes avoiding better routine space can expect delays are still but no, with this case specific cases or is that gender norm from the russians? a thought of this, you know, that will make the planes of a flight most western don't know. lucas shameka has long been adapted courting the
12:19 am
west and russia to his best advantage. but after the ryan, a incident, any remaining patients with a man, the e. u. c's as europe's last dictator has disappeared. he only has russia now will reach helen's to 0 excel better, rational position to settle on a chicken of sky hopes. european union sanctions will be more severe against president shanker of it's on days grounding of that passenger plane. she sat down with algebra, correspondence that lawson in amsterdam. my 1st thought was that they are going to torture him to death because he's considered to be private tenant for question. and because of his work for next of his journalism. were you surprised when you heard that he did such a thing? look shank taking high checking basically this place, were you surprised?
12:20 am
i was the pricing and, and choked because i couldn't imagine that this regime will make international scandal just the next one journalist. we see how far he can go just just to looking for revenge. of course it influences depo with people and people are a little bit more sensitive. now more care here to understand and that they can be put in the voice of any car. you can't yourself right now. i can see this. yes. yes, but if it's your this in the so what can you do? nothing. you can still find your way. you have to find a p to, to admit that this time dissertation concerns not
12:21 am
only sense, but citizen says here pam country as well, but it's kind of cynical, right? that after so many months of suffering, and bella was that when a european plane, it's been for us to, to land and how many europe wakes up. some people can think of this, it's not because of the sufficient route, but only before. so you're a citizen, functions are going to be fast and wide and but how do you get to meet these the whole that it's still also the course of suffering some sense? what would be the most important sanction that's your catch to impose on bella was, what exactly are you asking for? sure. it will be targeted very smart functions on state owned organizations that are focused on the local
12:22 am
money at the make him to release political prisoners to fast di. look mindy, to who could influence the situation. but if she doesn't have money, he tends to go to russia to present, put into ask for money. isn't that the way we understand that it became a problem for kremlin as well? and they would like to solve this problem, but they don't know how in the united states and it says from the republican party of broke the creation of an independent commission to investigate january's attack on capital hill by supporters of the formulas president donald trump white house correspondent, kimberly how kit has more now on how the vote came up. short. there were 6 republicans who voted with democrats in favor of having a bipartisan commission to look into the events of january 6 when of course there
12:23 am
were the riots on the capital. after so many americans would not accept the results of the election and tried to prevent the certification of the final result. but it needed 60 votes to pass this legislation and there were 60 democrats plus republicans in order for that to happen. so this legislation is effectively dead for now, and that has really frustrated majority of democrats who believe that there was a need to not only investigate this, but to put together a bipartisan report that would be presented to congress. and to the white house, an official narrative if you will, of what happened. in fact, how speaker nancy pelosi, reacting to this is called the republican cowards. rejecting the truth of that dark day that would make our capital and our country less safe. and here's what the top democrat in the us senate, chuck schumer also had to say, but out of fear or fealty to donald trump. the republican minority just prevented
12:24 am
the american people from getting the full truth about january 6th. those investigations will continue, at least in the house of representatives. there are committees looking into the various events that occurred on january 6. but the problem is these are democratic controlled committees. and the difference in this was that this legislation would have created the bi partisan investigation. so those hopes of having both democrats and republicans look into the events have been dashed, but still there are criminal proceedings. and again, the committee level proceedings headed by democrats. the problem is, many may dismiss those as being partisan narratives. and so that's why there was a desire for something more. joining us now by skype from, from the united states as p. j. crowley, a former us assistant secretary of state for public affairs in the obama administration. it was, as you well know, a deadly attack on the capital in which 5 people lost their lives. one of the long
12:25 am
term implications of the republicans using the filibuster, plant power to block the creation of this independent commission to investigate what happened to very good question remains to be seen what the political followed is. but it, it kind of underscores that we, the nice states now are in a perpetual campaign. we're only 5 months into the by the ministration, but already the the, the conduct of government is being overwhelmed by calculations about elections in 20222024. so the majority, in other words, the majority of republicans want to shield that policy from scrutiny because of the mid term elections in 2022. it's the thing at the front of van lines, which ironic is that in our 2 party system, you know, both parties have, you know, they have no seats in the house, the senate that are reliably,
12:26 am
either blue or red. so there's not as much competition between the parties as they used to be, what the fear is, particularly on the republicans given. you know, donald trump in the background is that if they make a tough phone, if a, if a vote for a commission like this, that they then set themselves up with a primary challenge with someone who will be far more conservative than they are. so that has made, you know, making tough decisions, taking, you know, controversial votes, something that they're unwilling to do is he, in the background know, tell us more about how the parts he views, the former president, his reach or east ability to shape and influence their decision making seems to extend beyond presidential office. well, i mean look at what's happened to the former number 3 republican in the house of
12:27 am
representatives lives cheney. you know, she came out, you know, highly critical of donald trump and his role in the, you know, the january 6 violence and his ongoing efforts to promote the quote unquote, you know, big lie that the election was stolen. you know, she's been stripped of her powers of that office and, and she's going to face a very difficult primary challenge in wyoming. so i think a lot of people in both houses look at that dynamic and say, you know, trump, even though he's no longer in office, even though he's the longer on twitter, you know, still seems to hold sway with the rank and file of the republican party if there isn't an investigation specifically of this nature in your mind, does that make the, is the u. s. then vulnerable to something similar? so january 6 happening again. well, let's take an analogy here of the september 11th commission. it was very political
12:28 am
in the sense that there was a partisan environment around it. but to this day, it is the authoritative account of the events leading up to the tragedy of that particular day. and that's the potential value of a january 6 commission. you can, you can just, you can disagree about lots of things with a trump inside it or not, but least there's a factual basis of, of how that developed. and, and the benefit of that would be at least institutionally to use that report to try to make sure it doesn't happen again. thank you very much. p. j crowley, for joining us for my assistant secretary of state public affairs. thank you. you're welcome. oh, now we moved to columbia protested, have started gathering in the capital to mark a monk of antique government demonstrations. the. this is set to be one of the largest demonstrations seen
12:29 am
in recent weeks of riley's in low cities across the country, taking place. people are demanding police or full monitor any 17 people died in crackdowns on the rallies, but protest to say the actual favor is probably much higher. the protest sparked by and now cancel the tax reform proposal. but since spiraled into a wide range of social and economic issues, alessandro catchy choices. now from the time been following the story and very different scene actually for compared to when we last spoke a couple of alexandra. what can you tell us about the the gathering then? the barium is very difficult. situation a very difficult by the rental rate here in the capital, we are at a concert that was organized by the main union in that country. there are roughly,
12:30 am
i say, around 500 people who are here, the sides of the raid by we understand that 1000 more are marching in the north and the south of the city commemorate to celebrate this hopefully the 1st month with the anti government protest in the victory that the growth is already achieved, the beginning with the withdraw needs to reform tax reform and health reform factors that would have just made the life of the poor and the middle class in the country that has already been greatly affected by the even awards. the prison has been overwhelming the people here with that, but unfortunately, we have received a report of more violence in the family video at the center of much of the road. that's where 2 people have died. we understand that it's a 1000000000 a shot,
12:31 am
a protest earlier today, and then the protesters as the person that charge them and feel them just another in today's what unfortunately have been frozen that have been marked by the violate response by the police increasingly also by vandalism. and destruction of public property, very complicated situation because people they, they want to continue processing while the government and the leaders of the growth is not been able to move forward. and then it goes the ations that they have cited . as you say, have you hang out to sandra, but we can bits and pieces of that concept people determined to carry on in any way they can. thank you very much. from bug or to 100 psv. you are still with the news ally from london much more and had a program and running for office can be a matter of life and death. con, contact was trying to get the candidate into power in mexico's local elections. and

12:34 am
astronomers from the golden age actually in many ways with the computers of the day . you can use it to find the time you could navigate science in a golden age with jimmy kelly on a jazz either june, 9676 days the re drew the map of the middle east. record a victory up is really army in that war for the saturday, the history of his 50 years later, i'll just explore the events leading to the war and its consequences, which had still held today. but we tried everything we went to the united nations. we tried to mediations contact 3 different countries and it was clear that all this was to know every the rule in june. oh,
12:35 am
the main stories now germany is officially admitted and apologized for its role in the genocide in namibia. around 75000 people were killed by german soldiers in 4 years, up to 190 wait, following a revolt against the seizure of land? us done republicans in flocks, bipartisan commission, into the capital riot by supporters of donald trump. upon fell sure to the 60 votes needed to pass with the 35, no votes, all from the from a president's party. i mean, on batteries opposition to set on a chicken of sky, as told al jazeera, she is concerned for the life of dissident journalist roman protests of edge. my 1st thought was that they are going to torture you to death because he's considered
12:36 am
to be private 10 and no question. now there are points as possible breakthrough that could and the political deadlock in israel and see the end of benjamin netanyahu is on offering as prime minister. a deal is thought to have been reached between 2 major parties on this. it would see, yes, i t lead a year le paid form, a coalition government with jamini, alida naphtali bennett. he would serve as prime minister until 2023 before le pete . then it takes over that would be the plan. israel is held for inconclusive elections in the space of 2 years without a stable government being formed well worn. this i'm joined by, you'll see, knuckle burger senior consulting research fellow at chatham house here in london. so is enough tale. bennett, edging closer to being prime minister. yes, it seems like there's nothing you certainly need until everything is signed and
12:37 am
sealed. and of course, today's denied shabba, so it means they're not negotiating until tomorrow night. so we are kind of 24 hours now to wait and see what's going necessarily been told me being announcement coming soon. it might be as early as as tomorrow. and then we know that you change your mind again for what you say. only 2 weeks ago that they del, for change, got to my meaning together with the center in the center. less was not a possibility anymore. and yell government. if you change your mind again and you joined such a government, so this and this is going to be a really change you need in the sense that will and then and you know, right so, so just to be clear, you talk about natalie bennett, changing his mind because he's been in negotiations with different parties and
12:38 am
including of course, benjamin netanyahu. but does that mean that he would, i mean, would his support, his and his m. p. 's refuse to back him in any alliance with the left? that's. that's the big question. why did there, there's an opportunity here. if you look what's happened also she didn't really follow the time election of only 7, n k, l 220 here the window of the other to the main team this possible government. yet lucky the official $117.00 said, you ready to lead to become the by many so for the 1st year. so there's, this is a great opportunity for the party to actually live smart news quality. busy and then they need or so there's, there's an opportunity to difficult for them to pass on the other hand,
12:39 am
not as the one out of the 7 in case he's happy with death because you mean that means enable line. and they'll going to sit in government with the center center last and with this, a boat to fall about these. and there would be an actual doing that. and the way to book blanket told me to give only 2 weeks ago that this is not possible. so that's exactly the kind of building blocks that you need to wait and see. and there was probably 5 days to, to resolve it until the main date. this was given by the president to form a government and with a fine historic and speaking how would such an israeli government compared to compare with with those of the past? and how might, what are we likely to see what we expect from natalie bennett as prime minister?
12:40 am
if you go home and listen to your story complex, because the biggest faulty in the correlation is 60 percent of the number of cases needed to cover for the majority or just above it. this is going to be gone home and the biggest faulty is 17 out of the $61.00, it's for much constitutes a majority. so it's going to be more than fine dining if you like any day. it almost invite instability within, within days of the political system. now, if you want to be think about this said ok, you can see if your selection just on the call. now, on the other hand, it's also a unity for bulky nation to learn to work together and some national agenda, which will be in total vision or from diversity device. it feels nathan yell into
12:41 am
