2:02 pm
i. don't have a woman i can tell you i'm. the united nations has courted a textbook example of ethnic cleansing hundreds of thousands of writing on muslims facing persecution and violence in me and ma have fled to neighboring bangladesh every day there's a steady stream of refugees who go into bangladesh and bomb the basic needs urgent had to deal with the situation let me give you an idea of the numbers nearly six hundred thousand who have fled from from bangladesh from their kind state million mark since or with more about hop of their oxygen and agencies need more than four hundred million dollars from we're doing a conference in geneva now i took the director of human rights watch in germany in a bit but for us he has more on what the red got if you're g.'s facing. thousands
2:03 pm
of people still flee me on our every day nearly six hundred thousand rwanda have left for bangladesh in recent weeks almost all of them have experienced great suffering. not wanders through the refugee camp and cox's bazar clearly traumatized the eleven year old tells us what happened in myanmar. my father was murdered by me and mary's soldiers thankfully i wasn't their neighbors had hidden and then they brought me to bangladesh. a lot of their lives. john not as now searching for her mother she hopes she also made it to bangladesh doesn't even have a tent she sleeps out in the open. more than half of the refugees here are children the relief organizations and the government of bangladesh aren't able to support them fully. everything is in short supply tents food and medicine there's just one
2:04 pm
hospital in the camp where a handful of doctors work around the clock. when they are on the run the heat and the long track are very hard going for those driven from their homes most people arrive here in very poor condition. the most serious cases are treated in the hospital in the provincial capital. many refugees have been maimed by land mines or carry the scars of bullet wounds all of them accuse the myanmar's soldiers of brutality. like. this. and bangladesh have formed a joint working group to discuss the repatriation injure refugees but very few actually want to return. and you talk about the during
2:05 pm
a crisis i have with me and vincent is the director of human rights watch here in germany welcome mr macaskill the situation as we suffer there he is dying let me first begin with this donor conference which is taking place in geneva how hopeful are you that they'll be enough funding given for the displaced. well we have seen many pleasures the number of the amount of money that should be raised is very high but the experience say so far only a few dollars really being donated compared to what is needed but for now the most important question is how does the aid that's already there get to the people who need it because we have seen how these people are crime they're crammed on this very tight strip of land thousands of them and it's very difficult to get any food or medical help there not the u.n. has described what they are doing or are going through in a me and as a campaign of ethnic cleansing is that how you see it as well yes we see it as well
2:06 pm
because we have for many years already reported. the deposit poll grooms against the ringer who are not recognized as a people or as burma citizens in burma and now what we've seen in the last two months is proper ethnic cleansing the people are driven out in mass and others mainly men are being killed women are being raped but the me in my government insists it's not getting out any human rights violations it says it's dealing with a terrorist threat the some elements within the rohingya community who have good regular radicalize in the past years sure there are some elements there where some attacks but it's you know. it comes without saying if you are bullying persecuting killing a minority for many many years then. there is always some retaliation but it is not
2:07 pm
a terrorist threat as much as the burmese government claims are saw rebels all groups have said that they will have a cease fire unilateral cease fire and they don't have connections for example to isis or al-qaeda so it's a very small group now you said the burmese do not recognized as citizens of their country but the rega have been living in myanmar for generations it's just absolutely gobsmacked that they're still denied any citizenship and when we talk now about the possible return resettlement of these people of the rohingya back to their country the question is to where because the villages and the land where there were for generations has been taking away already the crop has been sold and they would probably have to expect a life in prison so as you mentioned more than six hundred thousand rohingya
2:08 pm
refugees have fled to bomb that this can the country cope with the scale of new arrivals or never bangladesh is one of the most poorest countries in the world they have problems for themselves when their flights we are donating constantly money to bangladesh so to help six hundred thousand people came with and two months. on their own it's not possible so they need international help they need international although there is great empathy in bangladesh for the refugees do you see a negotiated settlement emerging out of this crisis at some point. i'm quite pessimistic but you know there's a long way to go and on the same time there is no time anymore no time to lose so there has to be a political settlement and only works if the international community if the other countries are putting real pressure on the military in burma to change what's going on right now fundamentally change benson because of the director of human rights
2:09 pm
watch here in germany thank you very much for talking to us in doing a u.n. conference in geneva has just wrapped up and they've announced that they've raised about three hundred forty million u.s. dollars which is about one hundred million less than they had asked for to help refugees in bangor they she can't. you're watching the deb in years still to come a hunter turned protector we meet a brazilian who had a change of heart and now wants to save the sharks he once cared. monica joins me now for businesses and she's looking to japan where prime is a shinzo abi has won a landslide victory in fact elections exactly amrita and that is going down where very very well on the trading floor japanese stocks had their highest level since one thousand nine hundred six the nikkei climbed nearly one percent extending its longest winning streak in nearly seventy years so it seems that the markets are celebrating the continuation of
2:10 pm
a banal makes in so obvious three arrows policy of monetary easing fiscal stimulus and structural reform now since the start of japan's nikkei index of blue chip stocks soared by one hundred five percent and in mid october that was shortly before the snap election the nikkei jumped to twenty thousand eight hundred eighty one points its highest level in twenty years but pumping billions of yen into the system has also boosted japan's sovereign debt and the third probably the most important area of nomics namely structural reforms has not yet been tackled now unemployment is down but salaries aren't moving much weighing on consumer spending and the international monetary fund warns that japan's growth could slow to north point seven percent next year and one japanese company that's struggling already is electronics make a toshiba the company is expecting to post a net loss of nearly one billion dollars this business year after calculating taxes

2:12 pm
running the clock is ticking and that the negotiations are not at the stage where they actually should be investors here on the trading floor are saying that britain finally needs to do their homework which means to be very clear on the rights of the european citizens in the u.k. northern ireland of course also a big topic and then the bracks a bill that still has not been negotiated and that after that there could be further talks for example are about how trade is going to be in the future so people here on the trading floor are not really paying too much attention to this more creativity ok and what about the creative gentleman across the big pond u.s. president on the trump has signaled that he will very soon tell us who he wants to be the next federal reserve chief what's in store for us there. yeah big rumor

2:14 pm
wage dumping. equal pay for the same work in the same country the ruling pertains to all employees in the european union being sent from one country to another for example if a construction worker from warsaw is sent by his polish company to germany he has the right to earn at least german minimum wage in the future he'll receive the same money as his german colleagues including the usual benefits that's according to a european commission legal initiative the previous so-called poster workers act was from the year one nine hundred ninety six when the e.u. only had fifteen member states there was a pay gap of one to three the law was meant to bring payment parity then eastern european countries became member states know the e.u. is much larger the pay gap to its now at one to ten that means workers in luxemburg earn ten times more than those in bulgaria no wonder the posting of workers is
2:15 pm
increasing in twenty ten it was already one point three million people twenty fourteen already one point nine million an increase of almost forty five percent germany france and belgium other countries which have the most foreign workers from other e.u. countries most of them come from eastern europe most workers that came to germany in twenty fourteen were from poland at thirty six point five percent slovenia at twelve point one percent and hungary at eight point nine percent one in three works in construction one in five in industry and one in ten in the health care or senior care branch their working conditions should now improve. evelyn's bankruptcy has left more than just a few passengers stranded but it's not just of the airlines customers that ongoing any well one of its planes is that either it's been and pounded at keflavik that is iceland's largest airport the effort authority claims the beleaguered ally has

2:17 pm
a journalist who's reported from welcome florian and the philippine government says that it has. removed all the extremists from the city of what i did us first what these people and look for say there were a local extremist group who took over the city almost by accident when the police came into arrest the leader of another terrorist group they then exploited the siege they were very hard to dislodge they've been fighting for months and months there was very heavy destruction of the city and the amount a group exploited that to try and radicalize the displaced population and turn against the government in the city of ease on mindanao and in the south in the southern philippines it's seen on this for decades hasn't it yes for decades and. in recent years has been a ceasefire and negotiations between another big insurgent groups and the government which is supposed to lead to further autonomy of the muslim part of mindanao but the failure to implement this autonomy in
2:18 pm
a speedy way has encouraged radicalism in the autonomous zone and unfortunately because of this crisis now we're looking at further delays which could help cause further radicalize the population so using the island of mindanao has a significant muslim population a predominantly catholic country yes we're looking at a promise of i'm not quite sure of the numbers but it's fairly small even on the island and the muslims are. fairly small minority in the philippines and they do feel discriminated against and that has of course also driven the radicalization of these of this population we saw beaches of the city of marjah it's been badly so bombed and looks pretty completely devastated thousands of people have been displaced how much of a trade do extremists those in the region on the whole it's been a threat for a while and the problem is that. the destruction of the city could of course drive regulation further and made in our island where it's very easy to hide in the
2:19 pm
jungles and the autonomous zones for how to govern. the fair as. the seas of market encourage further out it was asian and mindanao become a breeding ground for terror in the whole region field and no have thank you very much for that assessment. yes i'll take a look at some other stories making news around the was a senior official in spain's got a new region says its leaders will not follow orders from madrid if the central government moves to reassert control there the got a lot bottom and is said to hold a session on thursday in response to spain's proposal to temporarily impose time breakthrough on. a fifty year old german man linked to a far right extremist group has been sentenced to life in prison for murdering a police officer last year which god opened a file when police raided his home in order to confiscate dozens of hunting weapons he believes believed to be a member of that iceberg group
2:20 pm
a group which rejects the legitimacy of the german state. the coalition of argentina's president. machree has emerged as the country's strongest political force in me tell me lections mockery had been expected to lose votes over his government's human rights record but he dealt a blow to the opposition specially in the province of bonus itis where former president cristina kisha was defeated by the pro-government candidate. now to brazil and the remarkable story of an unusual transformation a fisherman who hunted and killed shocks for years has realized that overfishing miss tricked into wiped out shocked populations we visited him and for none though do not own a three hundred fifty kilometers off the coast of brazil to find out why he's decided to use his knowledge of these vulnerable creatures in order to protect them . this fine specimen of tiger shark weighs more than three hundred kilos.
2:21 pm
it's not exactly cuddly if it's isaac covered a shark like this usually just lie still. fished it out of the atlantic and now removes the fishing hook from its mouth. he researches the migrating repacking ends of tiger sharks but he used to kill them. sure the bears got where i worked in the fishing industry and loved to hunt bass animals that was then but at some point i realized that we were fishing way too much and damaging the oceans ecosystem now i use my knowledge to research sharks instead. president bush really. shocks and protecting that of. those great passion. but a lot
2:22 pm
a lot of. leonardo lives on the island of fernando de niro knew the biggest island in the archipelago of the same name in the south atlantic about three hundred fifty kilometers of the coast of northeast brazil. much of the archipelago is a national park and a unesco world heritage site. leonardo runs a small. i think shock museum where you can learn about sharks distinctive physiology. and their role in the marine ecosystem and not forgetting about leonardo himself and his transformation from hunter to protect of sharks. sharks are the most elegant animals in the world. fascinating and they are cannibals. so they regulate their numbers by themselves and that's
2:23 pm
a counter argument to the myth that there are too many of them and that's simply not true. in fact in many parts of the world shark populations have shrunk to dangerously low levels because of overfishing and environmental degradation three and likes to swim among his tigers. came right up to me mouth open and i shot. i was sure it was going to attack it was a female and when she was right in front of me she turned to the side and did a little dance. i felt she was about to rub her belly against me as if i were a male shark i was so frightened i almost fainted. tourists come to see. to it.
2:24 pm
that physical contact is strictly forbidden. now everybody abides by the rules. posing for a selfie with the baby ended in a painful fight for this woman and a very hefty fine the equivalent. that's six thousand euros. leonardo says sharks may not be our friends but they're not monsters either many people are much too scared of them and humans haven't treated them well. the. sharks used to be show no respect and one hundred relentlessly but they were here four hundred million years ago long before we humans made an appearance there is
2:25 pm
a long lasting growing awareness that shark populations need to be protected i think sharks will still be around long long after we humans have become extinct. most of the. leonardo and his team hold tiger sharks on to their boat for scientific purposes to measure them and take blood samples they have. and also to implant a small radio transmitter under the skin. during the procedure the sharks get out official respiration. the transmitter is designed to function for at least a year that way the sharks movements can be tracked by satellite leonardo has already found out that some swim all the way to africa. the procedure takes ten minutes when the incision is sewn together before this shark is returned to the water. gets ready to a school at it
2:26 pm
a little way. washington works i don't think i'll ever get life insurance. but oh yeah yeah yeah. yeah for me i'm going to get. them did not you know me maybe not but with people like former hunter now helping. this shark has the best life insurance policy in the deep blue sea. we're going to have a different kind on most cities driver lewis hamilton went into sunday's us grand prix with a chance to seal the championship but he faced a stern challenge from this driver sebastian fettle on the often track. a fourth world title was just fifty six laps away for lewis hamilton if only he could manage to hold on to pope position. but ferrari driver sebastian fattal who would also have to finish outside the top five for hamilton to lift the title took
2:27 pm
the lead on the first corner. but it was short lived for the german driver hamilton managed to regain the top spot on the top six. the mercedes driver who is battling for his fifth win in six years at austin never looked back he held a clear speed advantage before winning the race ahead to fettle hamilton who was awarded the u.s. crown pre-buy former president bill clinton will have to wait until this weekend in mexico to try and win this year's championship. and not an amazing jump this is the moment of brute of busy lives climbs up the bridge in an attempt to set a new by record in group jumping the stunt involved twenty kilometers a vote hundreds of highnesses and two hundred and forty five dead devils died together and of course lots and lots of strong to go with it. got amazing here's a recap of the top stories that we're following for you the u.n.
