one of those. sixty eight. this week. this is d w news live from berlin and gains for the far right in general elections in sweden and sweden democrats see a substantial increase in voter support after a campaign focused on the migration debate mainstream parties of the center left and center right have been left well short of a majority we'll have analysis from our correspondent in stockholm also coming up

tens of thousands of russians take to the streets in protest against the government's pension reforms hundreds of arrests are reported after the rallies which come as polls show falling support for russian president vladimir putin. and that the us open twenty year old nomi osaka pulls off a stunning victory osaka becomes the first ever japanese born tennis player to win a grand slam overcoming serena williams in a dramatic final at flushing meadows. welcome to the program i'm marion evans dean swedish voters have given a boost to the far right in sunday's general election as many as one in five voters back to the populist sweden democrats and. our anti immigration message sweet

democrat leader jimmy says his party's third place finish in the poll means it has gained a victory and says the result means he'll be in a position to wield what he called real influence but he has also offered to work with other parties which is something the mainstream center right and center left blogs have categorically rule down and the result for the state and democrats means the established parties will find it harder to form a government the outgoing social democratic block has a narrow lead over the center right moderates in both gaining around forty percent . on a short while ago i spoke with correspondent barbara vessel who's in stockholm i asked her what to the far right gains it mean for a country that's traditionally been viewed as a bastion of liberal values and it really means that the country seems to sort of take a new direction i mean sweden used to be the humanitarian superpower on the international

stage for decades all was and there was sort of like a fixed image shows sweden's weeds are good liberal they are tolerant they are open the embrace of the cultures and all this is now the question because it has shown that there is an underbelly of swedish politics and of course of swedish mentality of part of the voters here of people in this country who don't agree was that anymore who feel insecure of who really do follow the calls off the right to being populist to sort of go in for the fear mongering that has been really dominant throughout this election campaign and who believe the slogans of the right wing populist that everything will be better once though migrants are completely blocked from sweden as many as possible thrown out that's really what it comes down to and yes it is a major change in direction for sweden. all right barbara you mentioned that it's

clear that no party is going to be able to secure an outright majority so what's going to happen next just how long is it going to take until we see an established government in sweden. all this can drag on because it used to be quite an easy system you had either the center left block or the center right block having the nose sort of in first place and then the others would say ok we tolerate you and it was all sort of like a game that had set rules that was already fixed from the beginning and this is not going to work anymore so they will have to sit down and say do can we sort of form different kinds of coalition they've for instance never had anything like the grand coalition in germany that means like a whole bunch of smaller parties would have to really sit down and thing do we have things in common can we find common ground can we make compromises that is something that simply hasn't been done and it's going to take time and it is will

be very difficult so the old party system the old block system you know is also a shared tonight and things will completely change and have to change on that front . barbara faisal reporting for us from stockholm many thanks indeed. well here in germany some two and a half thousand protesters followed the call of far right groups and marched through a town in the east of the country that was following the death of a twenty two year old german man marchers walked silently through the town of could ten which is about one hundred fifty kilometers southwest of berlin police say the german national died after an altercation with two afghan migrants an autopsy showed the cause of death was acute heart failure that was not directly linked to his injuries the afghan men have been taken into police custody. reports

the footage shows how desperate the situation is for civilians in their lives and for those trying to rescue them. it's the second day of heavy bombardment in syria with reports of helicopters dropping barrel bombs on several rebel held town and villages. this man from southern it has a son by his side the trying to escape the brunt of the airstrikes into the city where. we were displaced by the russian strikes barrel bombs and shelling. they hit us with everything. and we're heading toward the northern area where. you know them and. they're not alone aid organizations say hundreds of families from it left are fleeing their homes so far the attacks are not hit a major city in an area that is home to three million people but the signs are not

good president assad's forces are determined to end the conflict at whatever cost for civilians. and out to some of the other stories making news around the world the iraqi foreign ministry has condemned a missile attack by iran's revolutionary guard on a base of a kurdish separatist group of iranian t.v. showed footage of surface to surface missiles being fired at the democratic party of iranian kurdistan says at least eleven people were killed and fifty others wounded at its base in korea in iraq. thousands of people have marched in chile to remember the military coup forty five years ago demonstrators carried photos of some of the three thousand victims of the ensuing dictatorship some protesters clashed with police after the march. well thousands of russians have joined a nationwide rallies against the government's proposed pension reforms the plan

would increase the pension age by five years to sixty five for men and just sixty for women the independent monitoring group over the deeds says police arrested hundreds of people anti corruption activists to extend a volley urged supporters to join the protests before he was sentenced to thirty days in prison for organizing an authorized public events. well joining us now from the russian capital of moscow bureau chief your overshadow good evening to you yuri so what more can you tell us about the extent of these protests are they only about this rather unpopular pension reform or is there more to it well the pension reform is something that makes people in russia really angry as for today's protests marianna saying of ali a new position politician who is in prison though you cited cold for these protests

and at the end of the day much fewer people was on the streets this sunday than in his previous protests this was partly because not only wasn't is there but also because young people are not so excited to protest against pension reforms and young people are actually the clean tell of the following nevertheless the war protests in all of russia with violent clashes with the police hundreds of russians have been arrested in nineteen cities a big bunch of them detained in st petersburg where the police arrested up to five hundred people though many people disapprove of the land pension reform there is no real then jal venger to president bush and putin and his policies his rating has fallen but dramatically he also talked to people on television the other day and presented himself as a good president who has improved his someone's well yuri along with all these

widespread protests across russia today there are also local elections held for governors and regional parliaments what about those elections do any of the candidates pose a threat to putting the grip on power or that of his party. i don't think so since his reelection in march president vladimir putin has formally been in the saddle and saying through the election today he's got his people throughout the country now in almost all local governments and parliaments. as far as mccann see this election have no surprises the election campaign was at the weakest in a long time with no real competition in most regions in the us it is the result has already been taken for granted we spoke to the election observers from the goals it's an movement for defense of voters' rights and they said that that state counted that's have been the running nearly opposed people who could compete with

the those in power are not allowed to run at all the same situation by the way we have here in moscow where the mayor stood against gagnon a man a protege of let me put in by the way he has a great chance to be reelected to why because instead of real opposition candidates he faced absolutely faceless candidates who was not at all dangerous for him and in that sense the election for mayor in moscow sums up the condition of democracy in all of russia all right here every shadow over importing from moscow many thanks. sports news now and germany's national soccer team have just had another chance to repair their reputation after their disastrous world cup campaign this summer they managed a workman like scoreless draw with world champions france in the nation of league on thursday but fans and critics expected more of them when they took on peru in
