this is d.w. news live from berlin the u.s. city of charlottesville marked the first anniversary of white supremacist raw news that turned deadly students and activists to commemorate the confrontation between white nationalists and protesters that left one person dead in the city last august we hear from our correspondent in washington where a rally is also taking place also coming up the. vote counting is

underway in mali up to a presidential runoff election but many people stay at home amid reports of attacks on polling stations we'll go live to bamako for the latest. fad and buy a new me draw into the new football season with an emphatic victory of a front foot in the german super cup we'll bring you the highlights from their latest trophy me. i'm glad you could join us the u.s. has been marking one year since the violent white supremacist rally in charlottesville virginia turned deadly thousands took to the streets of washington to call for racial harmony in contrast only a handful of white nationalists appeared. white supremacists much in three washington

a year after their rally in charlottesville turned deadly the organizers downplayed their role in last year's violence. in darfur the site the place to be told me you know it will work. out if it takes place i believe. it eighty back to what i was going to have. the group which was much smaller than expected was escorted by hundreds of police officers who were out in force to ensure no clashes erupt the white nationalists were far outnumbered by counter-protest as several hundreds took to the streets to condemn racial hatred. but. it's vital that. we don't allow white supremacist and open fascists to take the street on contested i don't want nazis and white supremacists to speak for me i thought it was

important to come out so that there's other voices to counteract them this empowerment of people who think they're coppers and convert supersedes peoples rights is way out of line and because of a stance on this is ridiculous. in charlottesville where the far right was forbidden to rally this year largely peaceful commemoration offense were held. last year hundreds of white nationalists descended on the city to protest the removal of a monument to confederate general robert e. lee the rally turned violent as protesters clashed with counter protesters culminating in the death of head the hire who was killed when a man drove his car into a crowd. back in washington a downpour brought an end to a day of remembrance and protest without any violence. now a number of rallies are taking place in washington and that's exactly where date of the correspondent. is now joining us live from so where exactly are you and what

has been happening where you are. so edith i am in lafayette park right now and what you see over to my left are the remnants of what was the counter protest which was frankly massive at least several hundred people if not maybe a around a thousand people from all over the district from the area even from a few other states who came out to protest against the white nationalist message of this was also supposed to be the park where the white nationalist rally was held but partly due to the weather and also due to some rumored security concerns they actually pushed up the time of their rally which was supposed to be happening right now there were an estimated maybe twenty people there a few people spoke and then they all got into police escorted white vans and went home so that's the situation now fortunately things remained pretty calm but there was a lot of police presence around right and speaking of the police concerns about

a security issue erupting due to the two sides colluding or colliding what have the police done to prevent this from happening. there were some reports of a few small minor skirmishes with the police and there were reports coming from charlottesville the city where all of this happened last year that a few people were arrested but for the most part things here remained pretty calm but what you can see next to me are some police barriers as well as there were several rows of other police between where i'm standing which is where the white nationalist rally would have been and where the counter protesters a few of them still are so there was quite a big separation between the two sides and the police said they meant to keep it that way they wanted to keep the two sides as separate as possible in order to prevent what happened last year from happening again and my own what has a message being from the so-called fascist groups and also the white nationalists.

on the white nationalist side jason kessler the man who organized both last year's and this year is you know at the right rally he said he first of all he wanted this year to be peaceful but he also said he wanted to spark a debate a conversation about the role of white people in american society today because these are people who genuinely believe that white voices are being shut out of american life right now and on the counter protesters side they really wanted to come out and say that this is not what washington d.c. is about this is not their country this is not their city and they wanted to really stand against that. joining us from washington thank you. time now for some of the other stories making news around the world human rights groups have called on european governments to allow the aquarius rescue ship to dock and let one hundred forty migrants and to europe this off to italy blocked exports to migrate ships it accused the charities of colluding with human rights which human smugglers to run

official was shot and killed by jihadists in the north of the country incumbent ibrahim keita cast his vote in the capital bamako and he's up against some majlis just so wants small loss took eighteen twenty thirteen say claims the west african state has become even more insecure and the case has room extremists killed polling station workers and seized voting materials in the first round of the election last month. so let's now bring in journalist from posthumus who is joining us from capital bamako brown we've had reports of a polling station chief being killed today has there been widespread violence and if so did it affect voting. record including european union observer mission which . barbecue on the. top ended six pm. no major incidents or no one could you mention the reported general picture eras of

the regular. people are formed during the first round although that may also have to do with the simple fact that. so incoming president abraham. came out of the first round with just over twenty percent of opposition candidates say any chance that says they will catch up this time round. that is very little chance of that happening the incumbent president is i got a huge advantage coming out of the first round and for that to be for that gap to be filled you need a very large turnout in the second round so you can mobilize the voters to vote for the contesting candidate this hasn't happened turnout if anything is any indication is anything to go by is actually lower than in the first one which usually plays into the hands of the incumbent so this very much looks like a fairly comfortable win for the incumbent president what cascada from possumus joining us from bomb of course thank you. and sokka by nick have won the

first piece of silverware of the new season of debating facets in the german super cup the reigning champions what an unstoppable form eventually winning the game five nil the result made it a happy return for by a new coach nico kovacs who won the german cup with frank foote just a few months ago. nico kobayashi returned to his old stomping ground in frankfurt and he was feeling the love. but on the pitch he was looking to defeat his former club. that the star frankfurt brought physicality and looked ready for the match but biron opened up the scoring in the twenty first minute the pass from yahshua can make set up robert levin dosti to head in and give byron an early i. hear things got a bit heated with tween marco fabienne in goals for eleven dollars the whole gave the perfect response again with the same frankfurt goalkeeper frederick who no

uncertain who neil buyer humbles was lucky not to get a red card for this foul on me i got cheated bitch. after the break byron took advantage again through the window scheme he concluded his hat trick by i'm but biron weren't finished kingsley komondor added another to pour salt in the eagles' room which was i and then tiago added a fifth goal to seal the game by the coco botches news mollies his old one they probably won't give him such a warm welcome next time the wind is byron's seventh super cup victory. bunnicula kind of time for date of the from date of response was at the super cup and he now joins us from frankfurt so nick the job done it would seem for by and what stood out for you in their first performance and. but.

i thought was very interesting to see that and he hasn't actually got a fingerprint on this team and no blueprint is the same buying we've seen season in season out for so long is because they're very very good team of course they're a well oiled machine they've always played so well and so strongly but today they were incredibly ruthless against frank for they took every single opportunity they could to get a goal to just increase that score line it's interesting i mean of course it does get a very poor world cup he's come back to school three goals and we've seen other players who didn't perform in the world cup who are back to it best it's best their best it seems out by and but i'm not sure if that's all it took over so i could just be as i mentioned because behind is such a good and strong well oiled machine so by and the well oiled machine which makes me wonder what about frankfurt i mean what does this result tell us about the expectations for this season. i think frank i have to go back to the drawing board

their performance today wasn't as bad as the scoreline would suggest especially the first time the first half they did fight back they were running after the ball trying to get a goal back trying to at least attack by him but they have souls for key players ahead of this season and you can tell that they're missing you can tell that frankfurt need to practice need to get their new players who are not of the same quality of the ones who have left to improve to carry the team in the ways the other ones have done and i think they will need to think about getting another new goalkeeper the man in goal today was very very poor he was born in april and because he was bought because rescue left the club and he did not make a very good day for frankfurt today so meek given how strong buy and have come in is there a chance that another team could well take the bundesliga this season. i doubt i mean this is by is always going to be the team to beat especially in the form that they are in and if they have been in the last couple of years the dormant of course will be strong this year with the players they brought in and with you

see how far the helm shocker are very strong but the bonus league is a real bind once when they win anywhere where they want to win is in europe that's where they want to win the champions league and that's where a coach has to prove himself and prove that he is indeed maybe a very good coach or just an also ran and that's going to be the hot the toughest hostile by munich in the coming months nick mechanic line joining us from frankfurt thank you. the twenty eighteen european to threaten championships concluded in berlin on sunday was a good closing day for the british team who dominated on the track great britain won the women's four by one hundred meter relay vent britain's men's also team also won gold in their race and those results meant that great britain finished top of the medals table and it was a big day for sweden sweden's amanda plant is he took home gold in the men's four vault final clearing heights of six point zero five meters a new personal best for the eighteen year old and also an under twenty world record . and in windsurfing spain came top spots in both the men's and women's world cup
