10:03 am
of course growing up in the wrong was sometimes difficult because i'm partly afghan partly iranian so i didn't know which direction to go it was a bit hard yes actually it was hard because. the fact that the parents didn't have any documents of the kids turned out to be a big obstacle later on every month they had to pay a fee to the iranian government says at some point us father a construction worker couldn't pay it anymore so ahmed and his younger brother left once again this time to germany it's been two years since then we have i said to my brother ok we're in germany now shouldn't lose time let's move on learn german and start something new. and they did i met is now in the second year of his training his brother is heading towards his a levels everything seemed well. but

german foreign office prepared a report on the situation in afghanistan which after some delay was made public at the beginning of this month now according to that report the country is volatile there are enormous regional differences in the level of security and safety and the country remains plagued by war poverty and corruption but the report does determined that the capital kabul is relatively secure and that there is no active attack by the government on its own people all of that is seen by the government as a basis for saying the situation there is safe enough to resume deportations of people in germany who do not have the right to remain in germany and are from afghanistan now just to give you a sense of the numbers two hundred fifty five thousand people from afghanistan are
10:06 am
currently in germany of those fifteen thousand are eligible for or required to be deported last year deportations had been suspended in no small degree because there had been a bomb attack in kabul right in front of the german embassy now this represents a resumption of deportations and it's very much a political decision a decision that is being pushed hard by the chancellor's the very in conservative sister party they are insisting that to deportations now should resume they say afghanistan needs its people to rebuild and therefore it's justified to deport but there are a lot of objections both from the social democrats the junior coalition partner and from a number of non governmental organizations here in germany as you mentioned bill and all this is happening in the context of a much broader discussion about asylum seekers and refugees in general in europe.

10:20 am
as a legal assistant like many young people in turkey she come from member a time when out on wasn't turkey's leader but unlike a k.p. campaigners she's had enough of him in a thread a he invests in rather than in education he behaves like a racist a warmonger or a nationalist he doesn't care about the people that's why we say it's enough to add one he and his people say we build roads and bridges for you but in fact so many people don't have hope. or anything to we didn't. he is a youthful country roughly fifty percent of those alledged will to vote are under thirty an entire generation that's grown up with add and the religious conservatism of his justice and development party. pensions and everything has an expiry date an error one is already out of date i've done done top ten side investing in a new law i want more freedom we should be able to think free money to suit you
10:21 am
that is the kind of turkey i want to live in. all to sixteen years is a long time for a government and the same mentality the same person in power that's not good. at the upcoming elections in turkey will be decided by young people one point seven million of them are eligible to vote for the first time the country's future is in and then head. of the world cup hosts russia are all but through to the knockout round with me in the studio to talk about is a libra otaki from d.w. sports good morning alina. the whole of russia seems to be rejoicing now with good reason obviously but tell me how did the lowest ranked team in the whole tournament managed to come out top of its group against mosul balls egypt of all i think it's simple i think russia is not as bad as people made him out to be i mean they on the
10:22 am
brink brink of going to the knockout stages and thanks to an own going and then this goal to denise cherry should have risked his career tournament gold of course egypt's mossad a converted a penalty on his world cup debut to round out the scoreline three one and i think in a way you know egypt can be happy at least most has his watch cup gold but russia eight goals in two games i think this is one of the best starts for hosting nation in what cup history correspondents and correspondent jonathan crane is standing by force of course jonathan it has a ringside seat as it were how about the host russia join us and bring all that through the knockout round house of via been moscow with the russians. wow another incredible results and another excuse to party i half expected it to still be going when i woke up this morning things have calmed down a bit since last night but here in moscow i want to cross russia fans on the street
10:23 am
singing and dancing especially here where we've seen latin american fans making the most noise on locals just taking a step back and posing for photographs they were leading the challenge last night driving three cents for most air or you could hear the horns beeping sadly a massive elements of surprise one found i spoke to the totally shall show now it may have just been he if you celebrate three drinks but he said i just don't believe it this doesn't feel like katine certainly a marked difference from the pessimistic move surrounding the team before the tone and because he ice hockey rules that these players are having to prove that they can play football too and the sunday doing that so you. celebrate their loss i know you were also at the senegal poland match another upset there at least on paper tell us about that. yes group shaping up to be now one of the most open groups in this tournament before hand you the favorite opponent on colombia to
10:24 am
advance but as are about to see they had cuts out in their opening games on tuesday . senator poland sought to stop strikers as captains of unleavened osc inside your money is a letter at least one provider for he said gave net its the first gold shortly before last time but it turned out to be a known goal for poland's juggle china quiz deflection hits a ball into the net and a good second can off that terrible back pass by the polish defense and after that it was all too easy for him by a neon at the hour mark. poland could only manage a late consolation goes jeggo bush. and dusty left no mark on this match why senegal its two one success is the first win for football match africa at this world cup. colombia meanwhile shut themselves in the foot against japan after just three minutes carlos sanchez got sent off for handball and change account of
10:25 am
a convert in the ensuing penalty. columbia that looked back and funf and i'm looking to the level it's called before the break. but also of course safe today for japan when he knocked in a corner after seventy three minutes to one the final score here as well. let's go back to jonathan in moscow and to that senegal victory over a pole in the african culture that finally has a win. yes incredible for senegal incredible for their friends they were outnumbered by about twenty to one inside the stadium but what they lacked in size they certainly made up for in noise two pockets of them either side of the stadium created a constant in throughout they were banging the percussion instruments they brought with them and to be honest it provided a welcome distraction from what was going on the pitch was a very poor game especially from the polish points of view or too often paul says once a strike obviously as we saw that gifting senegal the second goal center goal they
10:26 am
were care about the manner of the victory at the final were so the players took time out to dance with the fans on either side of the stadium the senegalese journalists in front of me were hugging each other giving each other high fives you certainly got the impression that carrying the entire hopes of the consonance on their shoulders i mean let's look a little closer at that group we've got a poll in senegal colombia and japan right now it looks as if anyone could make it through could make it through and get on to the next round that's exactly the way it is i mean this from the get go was one of the most evenly matched groups and it will remain wide open i think until the last day and i think what poland and colombia what they might have been stopped in terms of at robert even dossier and how mr greig as i think senegal and japan so far they've really been playing as a team and i know this some people out there have been saying that this is an upset no it's not an upset that's ridiculous because you know senegal there's a lot of a quality on this african team they created they contact counted as jonathan just
10:27 am
said that they really took the cane to poland and i think senegal might be one of the surprise teams of the tournament if of course they could come out of this even the match tricky group ok jonathan today morocco and portugal what do you see what do you see coming up there. well portugal was certainly be the favorites going into that now it's taking place at least nicky stadium behind me though the void by that opening day three old rule with spain morocco you think will have it all to do they lost their reckoning game against iran cristiano ronaldo will be the man they have to contend with but one thing for america fans to cling on to the sides of only met once before that was back in one thousand nine hundred six the world cup in mexico and on the last occasion morocco won three one johnson thank you so much of course but johnson crane there in moscow in a lemo talkie from sports with me in the studio thank you both. so i news for now
