this is deja vu news live from berlin colombian voters back right wing parties critical of the government's peace deal with former marxist rebels conservatives emerging as a political force but still fall short of the majority in polls and the disastrous results for the former farka rolls in their first ever election we'll go live to bogota for the very latest also coming up an. amnesty international says me and mark is building military bases over villages burned to the ground just months ago report cast doubt on the country's plans to repatriate hundreds of thousands of

refugees who fled ethnic markets. also on the show the children left behind by islamic state sprain. autumn's mother was a use eating grapes bias militants we report from mosul orphanage and hear from unicef about his efforts for these children in iraq. i'm brian thomas a very warm welcome to the show colombia's voters have decided and in the country's congressional elections sunday they handed victory to critics of a peace deal with former leftist rebels right wing parties that campaigned against the twenty sixteen peace accord emerged as a political force the democratic the center party led by even suggest the most votes but it failed to secure. majority it was the first election for the former

fark rebel group its leaders seen here casting his ballot voters soundly rejected his radical agenda the party secured less than one percent of the vote. now this result now raises questions over the future of the deal that ended the guerrillas decades long insurgency we begin with this report. colombia's president juan manuel santos cost him his ballot in a vote he called a crossroads for the country the first ever parliamentary elections to include former fox rebels as a political party. is in its eunice these elections are very special. this is the first time in a half a century where the far distance instead of sabotaging the elections are participating in the elections but the sheep i'm doing i think your news. something historic and very important for our democracy progress here it was his

controversial two thousand and sixteen peace deal that gave the fox status as a political party in return for an end to the group's decades long and sarette action. the deal also guaranteed the former rebels ten senate seats regardless of the election results house voting began one form of fuck command called it a historic day. is still i think this is going to mark a milestone we're entering the consolidation of peace it's the first time in my life that i've voted and i do it for peace. but that campaign was marred by angry protests many colombians feel the x. rebels should be punished for their crimes instead of being given positions of power. that. it was a catastrophic results for the fuck. so what is the future hold now

for colombia for more let's bring in correspondents ophelia harms a really she joins us from bogota this vote looks like a repudiation ophelia of the peace deal with the far is this deal now under threat . well i wouldn't say it's completely under threat most parts of the of this agreement have already gone through legislation but we might see some blocking in congress to further implement this agreement we see that not only the parties that opposed the deal had a very good result the strongest opponent of this peace agreement former president i don't even we were seeing him in the report he got the best result a candidate has ever seen in colombian history with more than eight hundred sixty thousand votes only for himself but you said it before this is not enough the parties the conservative parties have not

a majority in congress we see also that one of the biggest surprises were the greens the green party got. double as many seats as they were having in this legislation and we also see a new leftist movement entering congress this called the list of decency that is officially supporting leftist presidential candidate who was a former guerrilla member himself from from a group that was called back then that and nineteen received less than one percent of the vote tally nonetheless will be given ten seats in parliament there are guaranteed under the peace deal what kind of influence will that give the former for rebels. well i would probably say for now they will have nothing to say in parliament we see that most of the leftist movements and the leftist parties don't want to have to do it and don't

want anything to do with them they are trying to stay as far from them as possible . we also heard the presidential candidate gustavo better over who i was telling you is a former guerrilla member himself that if he becomes colombia's next president he doesn't want the voices of the far of the votes of the fark in parliament to pass the legislation through that he wants to feel your harms are really for us this morning in bogota thanks very much for the update now for some of the other stories making the news today protest took place across europe on sunday against turkey's north terry operation in syria's africa region demonstrations in britain led to disruption in two major cities the rallies come as turkish forces are understood to be on the outskirts of from poised to take over that city from kurdish militia. the conservative billionaire. been sworn in as

president of chile returning to that office for the second time he replaces the socialist michel about to let you know has pledged to transform chile into a developed economy within eight years. at least two passengers have been killed in a helicopter crash in new york's east river three others remain in critical condition the helicopter was hired for a photo shoot when it went down sunday evening its pilot was able to free himself was rescued by a passing tugboat. a new report from amnesty international says that me and mars rock kind state is being militarized at an alarming pace some seven hundred thousand rohingya muslims from that region fled following an army crackdown that began last august now amnesty is saying that satellite images reveal new military bases are being built over the range of villages that were burned to the ground just a few months ago the amnesty report is also based on eyewitness testimony hundreds

of thousands of are injured refugees of entered neighboring bangladesh as refugees since the crackdown by the military began the un has called it a campaign of ethnic cleansing in the area. were let's go now to journalist dave down he joins us from yangon good morning to you david what are the mean are myanmar authorities trying to achieve what with what rights groups are calling a land grab. yeah well for starters i have been trying but an eval to get a response from anyone in the me and our government on this amnesty report so far but if what amnesty is saying is true and i should also add it's really hard to get a clear picture what's going on in northern what kind fate because access has been restricted up there are more than a year but if what amnesty is saying is true this is just going to bolster the arguments that come from many groups that mean m.r. is not sincere when it says that it wants these refugees who fled to bangladesh to

come back because obviously these people had incredibly horrific stories that they talked about with mass killings and mass numbers of rapes and seeing their villages being burned down as what so many of them have said and that this is not going to make them feel more comfortable about coming back certainly if you're talking about large numbers of troops near some of these what we're going to build just before that's going to be a cause for concern although keep in mind the m.-r. has been expressing concerns about militant attacks from militants that would potentially be in bangladesh launching attacks into me an m r so certainly they could talk about needing security forces for something like that but it's definitely definitely to be adding fuel to the arguments from so many people saying that this man our government does not want refugees to come back ok so is very difficult to get independent confirmation in northern rockies but what about the risk who've fled who are now in bangladesh what's happening to the refugees

there. i mean again right now that's a massive number that are that are in bangladesh and we're talking about close to seven hundred thousand have fled just since late august on top of the refugees that have fled in and in periods earlier age groups there have been struggling that have been done and impressive job of trying to bring enough aid to them and no one was expecting that when it started they've done it certainly commendable job to try and help these but the rainy season the many coming up soon and a lot of these refugees are living in these these camps and makeshift camps that are probably just not going to be fit for them to stand once the rainy season hits in a few months now on top of that if we look here in myanmar there's still a lot of room hinges that are in what kind state there is estimated about eighty thousand one hundred fifteen broken just in northern iraq time that's where the violence is that and there's estimates that are about eighty thousand that are

still there plus you've got about a hundred thousand in central rakhine and more than a hundred thousand and they've been living in i.d.p. camps for more than five years when their homes were destroyed in riots now part of the problem here is those that aid eyes on the ground are really restricted of the red cross is allowed to deliver a has been a lot of the liver a but a lot of the groups that were delivering aid there for years u.n. a u.n. agencies and other groups have been really restricted on what kind of access they can get so we really don't know how well a lot of these these rohingya in rakhine are doing one thing we do get keep in mind there are still real hinges that are still going over the border into bangladesh not in the anywhere near the numbers of the few months ago but some of the ones that are still coming across a lot of them are still expressing concern that the reason why they left is because they could not get enough food so that's a raising alarm bell dave good about bringing us up to date from myanmar thanks so very much for the information sure. it's to iraq now in the aftermath of the war against so-called islamic state the jobless were of course

driven out of their declared capital mosul last year but the liberation of that city cost thousands of civilian lives many children now suffer from the trauma of losing their parents and the horrors of living under islamic state will be speaking to unicef's representative in iraq about the situation later first year's report from inside a mosul orphanage. mornings are the highlight of sakineh mohammad's day joyful children greet her with huge hugs they're playful and happy now but they share this side past. these children were orphaned during the so-called islamic states reign of terror the new iraqi special forces recovered them from the rubble this mosul orphanage is now their home where they can dream of a brighter future. it's men they don't want to work at a company. or school principal. i want to study at university.

i.a.s. wouldn't allow education. sakina mohammad wants to give these children a chance to flourish but the head of the orphanage says money and resources are often an issue. because i think he had a key issue but i'm so sad that i can't really help. yeah i go to the government again and again and ask them for books and help has probably been the think i beg them to make improvements and decisions. but nothing happens. that hurts children like. he was conceived during a rape his father was an i.a.s. militant his mother years eve the women from the religious minority were subjected to kidnap and sexual assault under i.a.s. today she's returned to her husband and her other three children leaving her them here you know what he is he his mother is eighty her religion forbids her to raise

the children of muslims. that's why she gave her son to the all financial model in japan and saved his life. shiite children like ramiro and were taken from their parents and given to supporters. after the city was freed their uncle found them here at the orphanage. now he wants to raise them but years of brainwashing have left their mark. so. they were taught what i guess believes. now ali hates iraqi police and soldiers. he sings songs its ideology has shaped his thoughts. the idea of. the so-called islamic state didn't just leave behind destruction and they sowed hate in people's hearts. snipers even used children as bait when iraqi

soldiers tried to common rescue the children they were ambushed. the movie was used this way he was dragged out of a firefight by a dog as iraqi special forces approached the baby lost his arm. it survived he's just eight months old no one knows where his parents are. and he can i don't know what has me most children can hold milk bottles at eight months but he can't because he's missing and om many many years that he's often ill and needs a lot of cash and you have to got across the middle of the queue but. there are many such sad stories here at the orphanage but still the children can laugh saying and dream of a better future your. you find out more about that story and other news from iraq by going to our website w dot com very hard to hear now the dispute over u.s.

tariffs on imports in the possibility of a trade war on heated up over the weekend that's right the u.s. allies actually scrambling to get an exemption from the tires on saturday u.s. trade representative robert lies high as a met with his counterparts the e.u. come to a pause and japanese officials in brussels for talks but neither side announced a results meanwhile in the companion speech in pennsylvania for the steelworkers u.s. president donald trump has defended his decision to put tariffs on steel an element of imports and singled out german comic because as a target lets the. european union they kill us open up the barriers at get rid of your terrors and if you don't do that we're going to tax for sadie's fares we're going to tax the m.w. have you want to have on a review want to have money come into our country market. so

more hardening of the rhetoric the rhetoric that are we looking at a real trade war on the horizon let's bring in your claim and he's chief economist for german linda come out spunk york one of the options here for the e.u. do you think playing hardball is the right thing to do. i thought so one and a half weeks ago but then i found out that the european union is even more protectionist than the united states european union travis are usually higher than those imposed by the united states therefore i think a policy of retaliation is not the right approach the european union should should talk to trump and indeed talk trump has offered the possibilities are to come to an agreement to come to a compromise so you use exum has a point that do you i mean but what are the terrorists that be you could lower now

for example cut terrorists the european union tariffs on imported costs are ten percent and compare this to the mere two point five percent of the united states i asked myself why does the european union not offer to cut its two percent cut terrorists to the mia two and a half percent of the united states i think this is exactly what what trump wants to see and i think this could be a solution in the dispute. we talked about playing hardball and you retaliate and all that. is the use it can only process fission to retaliate if if they're forcing the u.s. to back down. well a policy of retaliation risk a trade war and a trade war compu one by anybody not by the united states not by the european union the odds of only be loses and then think back to the thirty's you know after the

stock market crash off ninety twenty nine there was a trade war where each of the countries increased its tariffs and there was retaliation toes and so on and in the end we have seen a call let's in trade war and this is this mainly explains why we had a mild to hear depression in the western world and that is like a nuclear war nobody can win it. nuclear war being a worst case scenario u.s. commanders bungle lendell argue you must have worst case scenarios run us through it. i have cause a trip worst case and how it off cause and go mess by research is a trade war but i think it is it is it will not happen there you see that trump already office way out it's like cutting tariffs on cars or for example raising defense expenditure way also as a case because all the western european not all members promised to raise their

defense expenditures to two percent including germany by the county for example germany spends only one point two percent on defense and our defense system is no longer properly work and therefore it's in our best interest to to raise the defense expenditure to two percent of g.d.p. and this would significantly have to convince to convince president trump to accept the european union from the traffic's your grandmother commencements chief economist thank you very much for this analysis and that's all we are business for now the russian elections are coming up this weekend and brian has that story and that means this coming sunday about one hundred million people across russia will be going to the polls to elect a new president now they have eight candidates to choose from but there's little doubt about the outcome lattimer putin is all but guaranteed to win another six years in office as part of our series russia votes we're looking at how young

russians feel about this election the large majority are expected to vote for putin but today we meet those hoping for another candidate. yes but i'm collecting signatures folks and you know some chuck i don't need to thank you so much chuck is female feisty and defiant once among russia's most visible society ladies she's become an independent journalist. subject strikes a chord with the young people who oppose letting me putin but not yet openly and actively which is just what. he's one of the kremlin's most vocal critics but a criminal record prevents him from running for office his young supporters repeatedly call for protests and election boycotts. russian president vladimir putin on the other hand is urging voters to head to the polls the greater the

turnout the greater the legitimacy of his reelection which many and not just his fans see as a foregone conclusion. when yeah i like being a russian citizen living under the leadership of a strong politician named vladimir putin would. i expect the secret service to arrest me at any moment for something i've posted that you. see in your subjects in your sub chuck ourselves says she's not running for president and the strategy is to go against everyone she's not fighting on the front lines like deval me but she can appear on television. using high as token opposition so he can say look we've got freedom of speech that was on us all the slow. i'm convinced that all the candidates except the phone the are criminal projects their purpose is to legitimize putin's reelection with. no money is the only one

who can mobilize thousands in this kind of cold and snow the such. a small new number kind of cisco systems sea lanes comes from all from the soviet era was a good training ground we should all take that as an example and not just protest in the streets we ought to do something useful like collectively clean up the city . so what. the leadership should know what we're doing and it's not sitting at home like a couch potato. is a slow many young people take a critical stance but that doesn't mean they're in the opposition many are happy to have put in an office because they're doing well. just feel the truth you notice that russian culture is increasingly popular and that the russian position is gaining more respect abroad the boards or anything that we get known that many young people don't care about totally they're not interested in politics our task

is to get these indifferent voters on our side. this is the other every day you would as it. should be allowed to protest but within the legal framework. and if someone doesn't agree with that he should run for election as a people's deputy music and then staying in britain to stay with us if we put in will step down within three years he can't hold on any longer and the more we rock the vote the better they work for four years or so we don't want him to govern the entire six years we want him to go earlier and peacefully need to look for. yes but i'm not like that that was if we are being intimidated. in siberia or chechnya i wouldn't be as politically active as i am here. but was more than i will when you back up to. your way i'm afraid we either die standing up or live on our knees if we take to the streets you know i'll be in the front row got the i wouldn't get

over to the river in your room brazilian that. we support the president as you would a senior would you get said we support his decision to run in the. euro anyway and we will be giving him our vote. i may support alexei navalny ork sr subtract or putin it seems the twenty eight thousand presidential election has at last politically galvanized russia's young people. hello i'm collecting signatures fixing the subject. it's time to look now at sunday's bonus league action and two teams with champions league dreams going head to head dortmund with their usual only that has faced frankfurt who have proved to be a very strong team on the road all the makings of a bonus legal thrillers. over eighty thousand packed inside technology you know park for this one early in the match american wonder kid christian policy looking for his forty six thousand two hundred surely he couldn't convert it would have

been his second goal this season and sometimes the ball lets you know you messed up the beat it's later in the ball finds political game to cross the marker but it's marco rubio who commits an own goal giving domain name one elite after the break the free kick gave frankfurt another shot you'll be on mark level to school up. at the hour mark meichi batch one checked in to give dallman a boost pulis sick again setting up the conversion and the deep disappoint the third goal in matches for better frankfurt respond to any bloom from close range meeting. in the ninety first minute bloom's maiden goat in the bundesliga. but that's what i wasn't done being the hero. stuff she showed three points for good me.

leaving people still going to taste defeat in the bundesliga three to the final. we have time for a reminder of our top stories this hour conservative parties for nicol of colombia's peace deal with former leftist rebels have won the most seats in the country's congressional elections but they failed to secure an outright majority in the former fark rebel group that with public rejection and assassins results in their first ever bed for election. i'm brian thomas for the entire news team thanks so much for being with us we'll see you again at the top of the hour.
