3:05 am
a slave labor and concentration camps, around a $100000.00 people were killed. and this genocide, germany has finally accepted responsibility, it sighs and how it to deny it. we will now officially call these events what they were from today's perspective. a genocide came 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 to 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. they call it no, not reparation, but he got reconciliation. so this is a kind of, and you know, out of, of, of development, age and development,

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. republicans in the u. s. senate have derailed an inquiry into the attack on capitol hill by donald from supporters. back in january, democrats and some moderate senators from trumps. republican party wanted to set up a commission looking into the events leading up to the riots. 54 senators voted in favor short of the 60 needed to advance the legislation. whitehouse correspond kennedy hall, could explain why. 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 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
3:10 am
needed 60 vote 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 believed 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, we all know what's going on here. senate republicans chose to defend the big lie because they believe anything that might upset donald trump could hurt them politically. we've all lived through the horrors of january 6th. i was no further

3:12 am
those hopes of having both democrats and republicans look into the events have been dashed, but still there are criminal proceedings. and again, those 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. the remains of $215.00 children have been found at the size of a former school for indigenous children in western canada. the discovery in the province of british columbia has been described as heartbreaking by the prime minister just intruder. some of the children was young as 3, at least 150000 indigenous children attended. so co residential schools between the 18 forties 19 nineties. and he were forcibly taken from their parents and communities. and there was widespread physical and sexual abuse. they have been more protest in opposition, controlled areas of syria against oppression. president bushels assad's election
