a call for democracy in the final days of east germany has now been rebranded by the modern day far rights heightening tensions in ever more divided communities. to their views chief political correspondent one the crane is on the story for us good morning linda how could the sides protest get organized so quickly. it was absolutely coordinated and incited after the knifing incident occurred in the night from saturday to sunday reports apparently immediately were to be seen on far right social media sites that attributed to the ny thing to migrants of what these websites called southern origin and the same website said that the victim was a german with russian roots and these websites called for protests against this action and that call was then picked up by a group that calls itself all truthers they are football fans of the local football

club f.c. cam nets and they are. known for extremist actions both inside and outside the stadium and in this case the ultras called on people to take to the streets and show others who's boss in our city and and what we see there on the screen right now was the result of that so absolutely incited and in fact those protests then overpowered the police in the initial stages and the protesters absolutely targeted people who appeared to be of migration origin you know eastern germany has of course been in the headlines recently of words right wing extremism how is this such a situation there different from other parts of germany it absolutely has been in the headlines there was a very big anti immigrant gratian demonstration in the city of dresden in saxony in

the middle of august and in fact this state was the birthplace of the zina phobic movement to piggy which brought tens of thousands of people to the streets of drazen in two thousand and fourteen to protest the so-called islamisation of germany and this is also the state where the far right party actually was the strongest party in last year's federal election in saxony so what's going on in saxony and in eastern germany as a whole it's a paradox really brian because the fact is this is a region where there are the lowest number of migrants of foreign residents nonetheless the far right phares best where it can exploit a sense of insecurity and frustration and that is absolutely present in many regions of the east that has to do both with demographics and with politics just briefly the demographics this is a region that has seen real deep population since the fall of the berlin wall young

people moved away to expand to look for better opportunities in the west. order people remained and have a real sense of precariousness in many especially rural regions of the big east add that to the fact that there was a general mistrust of west german political institutions that western german political parties have never fully taken root in the east and you have all the ingredients for a very fertile environment for the far right more than the grain for us this morning on the story thanks very much. as we just heard there he's in germany has long been struggling with the right wing resurgence in one village there is gained a reputation as the neo nazi village has been entirely taken over by far right sympathizers with one notable exception the lower martyrs every year in august this couple takes a stand against their neighbors by staging a music festival. as this report. the village

of yama is eleven houses with roughly sixty residents it's usually a pretty peaceful spot. once a year young men residents there get to know my and her husband organize a festival in their backyard. and it's not your average summer gathering actually it's a protest twelve years ago when they started it miles wanted to take a stand against neo nazis in this case that means almost all of their neighbors they say. for years the couple tell us they have been terrorized by them until one day they have been caught fire that was a direct attack i think it says because we have become very vigilant in recent years especially after the arson attack on a. and we have installed security measures to see it's a very difficult situation. here in elite threat situation. the

burned down bar and we're looking at it a few meters from their home. right behind me is the property of the little maya family here hundreds of people enjoying life music in the form of protest against neo nazis and others with far right views meanwhile when we turn around we can see on the opposite side of the village there's another little party going on. a notorious right wing extremist in germany has invited just like minded friends to come over for barbecue and in fact the police station just in front of his house to make sure they can intervene in case of any confrontation. it's crystal clear whose turf this is the flag of the former german irish or empire is clearly visible from everywhere a moral shuls the residence vision of a german arian family. and a signpost points the way to fitness birthplace and to leave no doubt

eight eight is neo nazi code for heil hitler. these are only some of the nazi symbols we can find in the village. and he's the unofficial. his criminal record includes illegal possession of weapons and assault. so over there they're leftists and we're not and we have to listen to nazis the whole evening my own garden friends i was told to get out because i'm a nazi so i said i live here and you don't think they play music against us we haven't i stayed together we'll probably do this every year no against the left wing us. next door and. doesn't seem to care much they're here to support the message of it and tossed. tolerance and

democracy. now for a look at some of the other stories making the news around the world today in myanmar the verdict in the case of two reuters journalists on trial for breaching security laws has been postponed for a week court officials say the delays due to the health of the judge overseeing proceedings the cases seen as a test of press freedom and progress towards democracy in the southeast asian nation. pope francis has ended his visit to ireland a visit largely overshadowed by revelations about the scale of sex abuse in the catholic church on the plane back to rome francis declined to comment on the claims by a former papal on boy that francis himself was involved in a cover up of allegations of sexual abuse by a former american cardinal. two people have been killed and eleven wounded at a shooting at a computer game tournament in jacksonville florida

a twenty four year old contestant opened fire on all their competitors before shooting himself dead police are investigating the gunman's motive. a memorial service is to be held for the late u.s. senator john mccain on saturday the former repub. presidential candidate will be laid to rest the following day he died at the weekend at the age of eighty one following a battle with brain cancer. now the women's rights organization estimates that as many as sixty five thousand women living in germany have been subjected to female genital mutilation or f yeah that figure is twelve percent on last year and it's been rising for some time now largely due to an increase of the number of migrants from countries where g.m. has practiced this cruel and sometimes lethal procedure is common across africa leaves women with lifelong pain and scars both physically and emotionally unicef estimates that more than two hundred million girls and women are living with the

effects of it. at a reconstruction clinic here in berlin our correspondent kate brady met one affected woman who has joined the growing call for an end to have g.m. her name has been changed to protect their identity. as. i was about eleven or twelve years old several people held me down then they cut me off they laid me on the table i can still picture it i had such horrific pain well then they sewed me together. they tied my legs together for a month so that the wound would heal. them but i had had i types of female genital mutilation very anywhere from damaging the clit or to sewing up the vaginal opening in some countries the brutal practice is considered a rite of passage a prerequisite for marriage. in somalia the procedure is done by your so called

cutter they have no idea what they're doing they just have a knife and they cut. after two and a half years in germany thirty six year old e for seeking advice a balance doesn't flower center which offers reconstructive surgery and consultation for women affected by a. dr cornelius joins advises those effects and but germany service is an expertise enough jam are still limited. when i study. am was uncovered in the subject. but i know this is changing and i hope that trend continues but i still need colleagues who either know very little or absolutely nothing about this and he got into this according to ted a fam some sixty five thousand women affected by after living in germany an increase of twelve percent on last year. this is the increase in migration from countries where female genital mutilation is particularly prevalent

on the german side this means countries like somalia. in a statement to deutsche avella gemini's family and women's ministry described female genital mutilation as a human rights violation during this legislative period the ministry also plans on working more closely with germany's youth welfare offices but when it comes to some parents taking that young daughters back to the one country for a so-called vacation circumcision there's very little that oath or a tease well the german government can do. volunteers and teachers therefore play a huge role. the only way to really gauge what's going on is to have a vigilant society particularly means people who work in close contact with families who might potentially subject their daughter to. these people should be particularly attentive these. ted if estimates that fifteen and

a half thousand girls living in germany are in danger of f. g.m. . her three year old is among them. why am i good my three year old daughter has been circumcised but if we stand back to somalia i'm one hundred percent sure that her grandparents will make undergo the procedure. but for the first eldest three doses it's already too late. to make that was fate those of us who had to experience it too but i'm a fighter. i hope that these women are healthy and i hope that at some point this ritual will stop. the report by did abuse kate brady who's with me now in the studio good morning terry it's very difficult to get women to speak out about this about what's happened to them what are the risks for them of talking is actually right that there is a lot of pressure when i come here. within the communities but also this is why

having spoken to various volunteer groups over the past couple of weeks they said it's so important that there's a big push integration here in germany particularly of these women because they are then more likely to speak out the more that that integrated into german society and they have german friends and they feel more comfortable there was one lady that i spoke to she's lived down in munich and southern germany now a couple of decades and she said it wasn't actually until she had quite an open conversation one day with one of her female friends that she found out that this simply wasn't normal and she was twenty years old at the time and of course there are. any complications as a result of this and in the meantime then if they do speak out they can be receiving psychological support and also medical help for the physical effects you know one of the reasons why there's been an increase and here in germany we've seen a twelve percent increase your on your current exactly i mean over the past since about two thousand and fourteen the increases being here two thousand and four

sorry if you look at the numbers back then it was about twenty four thousand when now looking at about sixty five thousand women in the later stuff they and this is largely come off the back of the increase of migrants coming to germany from the countries why this is often carried out so that's kind of northern african states and also parts of iraq and yemen and that's good because there's more women coming from there had this procedure they've been subjected to this procedure in their youth and are coming here. what's being done right now to clamp down and or at least curtail some level of violence against women well there are a lot of support groups lobby groups and the government has said the family ministry said to us they are planning during this legislative period to work more closely with these groups and of course one of the things that these support groups are asking for is more financing at the moment a lot of like also this reconstructions and that is funded purely by donations

but of course there is a lot to be done but at the same time while authorities can now take passports away from parents for example who they suspect have taken their children back to their home country to have this procedure carried out on them at the same time it is difficult to exactly spot who they are and then you also run the risk of suspected innocent families and so it's difficult to not talk everyone with the same brush they might just be going back on on holiday to the to their home country ok so there is a role for the government and a big role for n.g.o.s as well thanks so much for looking into the story for us to bring you for a story. good. sports now in a big match in the bundesliga sunday featured two of byron wien its closest rivals stuart and leipsic both teams have high ambitions for the season above all they

want to prevent barn from winning a seventy seven straight title at the end dortmund was the side that looked most like a contender. a shock for the hosts after just thirty one seconds. in the lead a bouncing ball felt as young. who bulldozed it past keeper roman burkey. but dortmund struck back in the twenty first minute. smelters trust met by the acrobatic. one zero. then in the forty eighth minute to marco toys free kick headed in by myself lights and even their opponents a gift and three minutes later a christian politike corner thomas delaney's header saved by the lucky but it's still firing home the rebound with a sublime overhead kick. and dortmund weren't done yet in injury time new captain mark netted is one hundred one just.

for one success and dortmund stake their claim to being legitimate title contenders . and the other sunday match pitted minds against guard both teams and spent a lot of money to bring in new players and it was mine's coming out on top this goal in the seventy sixth minute by anthony made all the difference robin quasar made it possible by taking the ball from the defender and then putting it back to set up. this is the first time mine's won their opening match in five years. in formula one racing ferrari's boss in the final made a quick pass on the first lap of the belgian grand prix and held the top spot for the rest of the race he also trimmed rival lewis hamilton slim lead in the driver standings. race was marred though by an early crash fortunately left no injuries. just seconds after the start and with lewis hamilton is

a bust in battle having already cleared the corner there was drama in spot. the culprit was nico hit the bag in the yellow ran to the crash propelled mclaren spin and the loans are through the end and on to show the clinics. the drive is made out unscathed thanks to the halo system which has been used in the sport since the beginning of the season the race was to the put them but not for how milton in pencil who put on quite the fight to the finish the german stronger motive proved the difference though as he took the win it was princes victory this season. well a group of workers has been rescued along the argentinian coastline after the tide washed them ashore over the weekend the same group of rescuers were called upon twice to help the killer whales back into the sea it is certainly not an easy task workers average about six metres in length and weigh more than three thousand six

hundred kilograms. well done there congratulations not in a word in the united states but it does look like a new nafta deal is in the works brian for months progress has been gruelling the slow but now u.s. and mexican trade negotiators are reportedly close to squaring away bilateral differences to update the north american free trade agreement nafta and response the mexican peso is gaining nearly one percent this morning this agreements between the two countries have been a major obstacle to renegotiating the deal which also includes canada u.s. president don't trump has been a harsh critic of nafta accusing mexico of using it to take away jobs from americans connect canada's top trade negotiate. has also expressed optimism analysts say a new nafta deal could reduce the risk of a global trade war talks are set to resume later today. markets have

also welcome to the u.s. federal reserve chairman defense of his plans to gradually raise interest rates most asian stocks are up after the closely watched meeting of central bankers at jackson hole wyoming fitzgerald jerome powell signals that he will continue raising rates if the u.s. economy rate remains robust to keep inflation in check that's despite president trump's recent criticism of higher costs paul also said that the fed needs to balance maximizing employment with keeping prices stable. not for some more analysis let's bring in your kramer he's chief economist at. the show this morning the fed is staying true to its course in times of increased political pressure on the central bank do you see that as a good sign. well this was anyway my expectations because first of all. it is

a longstanding history that in the united states the president does not make any comment on the on the policy of the federal reserve and five was clear that the fed chairman paul it would not mention or react to any of this criticism explicitly of the u.s. president trump but the fed or the fed of the u.s. the chairman of the federal reserve board sent the same message as before they will continue to gradually raise interest rates september rate hike seems to be a done deal probably also december and next is. likely to switch off the auto pilot and as the federalists of interest rate has come closer to three percent rate the u.s. and mexico seem to be closing in on striking a fresh trade deal one of the interesting issues are such a deal would be to see how much ground the trump administration is actually willing

to give. enough as concerned i had anyway expect that in the end we get an agreement because you have to see that u.s. companies especially u.s. car companies have invested billions of u.s. dollars in mexico and i think they managed to make president trump here that they don't want to write off this huge investments done by u.s. companies in mexico and therefore there's a strong economic incentive to come to an agreement and i expect the deal to emerge very soon this does not mean that mr trump will also come to an agreement with china china is a geopolitical contender and china for many many years has treated us and all of foreign companies as a whole unfairly i think this huge risk that in the end president trump would put tariffs on all imports from china and europe briefly how important for global

trade would be a renegotiate nafta deal. i think this is a very important part and signal which also supports my view that there will be an agreement between the united states and the european union that means we we are not seeing a global trade war but we are seeing a trade war between the united states and china this is bad but better than it was . chief economist at comerica park thank you for your insight. and now from shocked to shock you turn us electric carmaker tesla will remain public after all that's two weeks after c.e.o. along musk surprised investors by announcing his intention to take the company private now musk says he is reversing the seven to two billion dollar plan to the likely relief of investors many of whom had called for musk to rethink the idea.
