moves by venezuela. we don't know a whole lot venezuela apparently has accused the ambassador daniel cleaner of intervening in domestic politics in venezuela most likely because of the ambassador's presence at the airport when one boy i don't know returned to the country two days ago as you may remember a number of embassadors especially from the region did go to meet him along with with thousands of well wishers who were there and on this occasion the german ambassador was present and he did speak to journalists saying that he and germany very much hoped that to mr god or will be permitted to continue has his work as president of the national assembly and apparently this is now grounds for accusing the ambassador of as i say intervening in domestic politics in

venezuela now this news is just coming in melinda has to me any reaction to it no not at all we've only now heard of this now since about twenty minutes just getting the very first reports but what i can tell you i'm greta is that this is very unusual german venezuelan relations are close they go back actually for a very long time in fact to a very symbolic meeting between the great researcher and scientist alexander from home bowl during his travels through latin america he met with them as well as own national one of its national hero simone believe ah so these are a very long and close relationship and this is a first. degree declaration of has won a non-grata of the german ambassador right to melinda trained. political

correspondent you very much for bringing us up to date on that breaking news coming out of it is. that the german ambassador of the country has been declared persona non grata and he's been asked to leave the country within forty eight hours of course keeping an eye on that story and we'll get more from you as soon as it becomes available and moving on now in human rights watch says the iraqi government has a charge hundreds of children with terrorism because of their links to islamic state the n.g.o.s say is the iraqis and the regional kurdish government used torture to course confessions in some of the cases there's two major fifteen hundred children are being held in detention for alleged affiliation that's us supporters and victims of many of them children are leaving the groups find an enclave in the village of bugaboos in eastern syria. children caught up in islamic state leave behind a world many of them were born into. most are now orphans and face

an uncertain future. while some may be handed over to aid agencies there are concerns about the fate of the older boys in particular. a report by human rights watch says around fifteen hundred children are being held on terrorism charges over the border in iraq some claim they've been tortured this teenager says he has the scars to prove it at sixteen he was arrested for alleged links to i.a.s. and held for twenty two months and. tortured me using plastic pipes. they set confess what you will yes. i told them i wasn't. forced me to confess that they put out cigarettes on me. this woman's thirteen year old son is still missing every match and my son has nothing to do with i asked he was not trained by us but people thought he was because his father was. the iraqi

police said it's just an interview and we'll bring him back he's been gone for four months i want to know what happened to him is he alive or dead human rights watch says thousands of children were recruited by us in iraq as the jihadist took over large swathes of the country some were forced to join others did so because they were hungry or felt they had no other choice. i see evacuation from islamic state final enclave continues this report is a timely reminder that up at three child detentions violate international. now with me in the studio i have wenzel mikulski he's the director of human rights watch in germany welcome mr mccoskey the first of all what is the basis of your concerns about these children in iraq well actually it's the fact that they are

true true and there are children who have been tortured who have been mistreated and who have no chance to be really happy to take to or really integrated into their society even when they are released from prison many of them don't have to go home because the ice is affiliation whether it's true or not brands them as president on crutches ok so how do you mean talking to the iraqi government and the local authorities about this condition how responsive have they been to you they haven't been very responsive so far that's why we publish the report and hope that there will be international pressure on the government of iraq but also on the kurdistan region to treat those children according to international juvenile justice standups because even if they have done something horrible then they can be tried but on completely different standards than for example adults we don't know

in what kind of circumstances these children were drafted into the i.a.s. so explain this juvenile justice system how does that work well it works like a grown up justice system but it takes into. that these people are children that they're not make sure that their brains are still developing and according to these standards the fines very much lower but what is for us of even more concern is the. of torture. and the conditions in the prison so children are imprisoned together with adults in iraq in the kurdish prisons the situation is better. and that is obviously going to have a disturbing development given as you said this shouldn't be probably traumatized from what they've been through anyway now who should then take responsibility for enforcing the juvenile justice system is it up to the country or do international organizations need to get involved where we all have

a responsibility for us and mostly it's the country itself but then also the international community the u.n. member states they have a responsibility because it's a human rights abuse human rights are global lead so we hope that our government the german government will put pressure on the iraqi government to change the situation and how difficult is it to make us get to reintegrate in reality if these children into normal society after an experience like that what has the rights watch learn from the other examples the child soldiers have been used in certain conflicts we have. nobody we haven't found anyone who has been integrated or really have believed that because there is no program they are either in prison or they are released and then these kids are on their own and they do you know that whether they will be accepted back into their communities and into their families after being associated with

a stigma of being involved with the so-called islamic state or having been in prison that's the problem they're not being accepted by families on neighbors and their community and so that's why many many children don't have to go home because they fear for their lives so of a difficult situation because key directive human rights watch here in germany thank you for shedding light on this issue. now fg on the sun has been hit by a new wave of finance at least seventeen people were killed in a militant attack in the eastern city of jalalabad the assault began early this morning with militants detonating suicide bombs before storming a construction company near the city's airport the u.s. troops were called in to assist of gun security forces in the ensuing five. or five of the assailants and now dead. on this attack on this negotiations

between the taleban and u.s. officials underway in got to the talks aimed at ending more than seventeen as of violence in afghanistan the u.s. says progress is being made but that more time is needed we'll have more of those talks in just a bit but first a look back at just how the thought came to power in afghanistan. the taliban emerged in afghanistan in the early one nine hundred ninety s. their aim was to turn afghanistan into a few ocracy and bad foreign influence from the country in one thousand nine hundred ninety six the taliban seized the capital kabul and began to enforce strict laws women were forced to wear burkas girls' schools were closed television and music was banned. after having been largely ignored by the west for years the country became the center of attention in two thousand and one in the aftermath of the nine eleven terror attacks. at the time the taliban kept close ties to al qaida

the terrorist network behind the attack of the taliban also sheltered its mastermind osama bin laden. i gave taliban leaders a series of clear and specific demands close terrorist training camps hand over leaders of the al qaeda network and return all foreign nationals including american citizens unjustly detained in your country. none of these demands were met and now the taliban will pay a price. only weeks after nine eleven the united states led an invasion of afghanistan and drove out the taliban regime. the us net alliance brought a new president to power and funneled billions of dollars of aid into the country. taliban fighters were forced into hiding but soon after they regrouped and launched an insurgency against the u.s. backed government and foreign troops. despite the taliban insurgency continuing in

afghanistan most foreign troops pulled out of the country in twenty fourteen leaving a small contingent to train afghan security forces. the taliban used this to their advantage by taking back large parts of the country. and president trump intends to send even more u.s. troops home. washington's priority is no longer to defeat the taliban but negotiate an end of the conflict. and for some analysis i'm joined by correspondent she's reported extensively from afghanistan a welcome sondre now since the taliban fell in two thousand and one big gains have been made but the country is still lie ahead in conflicts that talks are going on between the u.s. and the taliban what are you expected to come out of those talks we're not anyway and mia a peace deal yet what we're seeing here is framework talks between the u.s.

and the taliban that could potentially lead to a road map to peace so this is still very preliminary stages it is a sliver of hope but it's precariously hanging because it's happening behind closed doors so we don't know if any red lines have been defined as of now but if you ask me personally talking obviously so. it's better than fighting but there's a certain convergence of interest between the two sides in these talks the u.s. wants to get out of afghanistan donald trump has said that many times and the donovan would like all foreign troops out of the country isn't then playing into the hands of the taliban this is really now depending on the us administration if this wrote to peace is timeline based i think this is going to be a big problem but if it's conditions based and we don't know that now i think it could potentially lead to discussions that need to be inclusive because what we don't see at the moment is the u.s. is the u.s.

government stepping aside and letting the afghan government you know be involved in the peace talks we don't see civil society being included in the peace talks we don't have representatives from the countryside being included in the peace talks because the vast majority of the afghan population is residing in the countryside and if you look at the countryside people for nearly four decades there have been denied the most basic human rights which is the right to life but how do you explain the fact that you're having these super frame book talks for peace in afghanistan without the of gun government i think everyone involved here has to a certain extent below it expectations so the u.s. which originally said we are not going to negotiate with the taliban now do negotiate with the taliban government tell you why because as you rightly said u.s. president wants his troops out and the taliban also i think they do have to realize that they need to compromise to a certain extent what we haven't established yet is where is the red line you know

where do we stop saying ok this has to be an inclusive process for the taliban as well so what about the afghan constitution which parts of this constitution that the taliban reject and non negotiable and which parts are we haven't established concern sundra about the involvement of the taliban we know dolly bunz brutal. legacy is the prize then for peace erosion of democracy of human rights women put back into burka sport out of schools i think the french just there but again you know we have seen a development of nearly eighteen years and i think to a certain extent some sections of the taliban have evolved you know the people you're seeing now are not the same people that were in power back then now how far that goes to the soldiers on the battlefield we will have to see but what i have seen in afghanistan is that strong urge and hunger and desire for peace even on the

taliban side last year we had this you know three days of troops and you could see taliban marching into cities and people welcoming them so that was three days of not fighting off not dying and this is raiding what people are longing for about the price might be high we might see a spike in violence before we're going to get anywhere son of peterson our correspondent who specializes in afghanistan thank you for your assessment let me down be updated with some other stories making news around the wasn't north korea is reported to be rebuilding its long range rocket launch site funding the collapse of last week's summit with us as warns the north it faces fresh sanctions if iran young fails to take steps to denuclearize. italy has opened applications for its new citizens income scheme residents who less than seven hundred eighty euros a month will receive prepaid debit cards to pay for groceries bills and rent the

the end of the road for them in the champions pursuit must be so disappointed they were playing at home i'm also they disappointed but obviously positives they could take away from last night's game because the out of the competition as you said yeah of course and you know don't win this of course a club that has ambitions to get beyond that stage of the champions league for them is still a bit of an early exit thought tottenham are brilliant saying there's no real shame in losing to them their third in the premier league for a reason. and it was a very positive attacking performance from goldman yesterday they created a lot of chances for themselves unfortunately they won't be able to use them but it was better than we've seen from them in the blues league game recent times the stadium was rocking so i think there was still a positive feeling despite the defeat yesterday for dortmund and i think one thing this was a good is that now they can focus on the bundesliga because as we know they're under a lot of pressure from by munich who are level on points now on top of the because the yeah it's back to germany competitions for them and all eyes on the domestic table ok but look going back to last night matches it was even

a bigger shock defending champion st you know riyadh. agreed she did last but not that they do is they were trashed at zero they really were put to the sword by x. yeah it's not going very well for real madrid at school at the moment they were beaten three nil by boss alona in the semifinal of the cup of del ray last week then beats in again by boss alone in the league and now they were smashed four one at home by underdogs i.x. all of that. this season has basically crashed a hole in the space of a week but of course in sums of last night's game it's all credit to x. they pulled off a well deserved upset and we can in fact hear now from toni kroos from real madrid yeah and he's got no complaints with the result let's listen to what he had to say it's disappointing today of course we we are not used to go out in this competition that early. but today we have to be honest that we deserve to go it's a thing i actually was was a better team and in both games. some judicious and very stoical reflections they

have across but unfortunately it looks basically like the end of an era for that fantastically successful real madrid start absolutely ok not looking ahead what can we look forward to yet we've got two more champions league games to not support a host roma roma go into that one with a two one lead in paris p.s.g. play host to man just united p.s.g. a two nil up in that clash but manchester united have been experiencing a bit of a nice ones under their coach are we going to solve and souls are of course won the champions league himself with much the knocks it back in ninety nine p.s.g. obviously one of the kind of ascendant teams in european football at the moment thomas to hold a coach looking to prove himself but he said that they need to be very wary of the spirit which carried united to champions league victory back in ninety nine. yes of course a potential turnaround on the cards that i'm only going to also said that you know it's it's really need to get the first goal so to attack in teams going to be going at it very hard each other in paris to mark definitely

a big highlight of the series to his new season starts it's a lot to look for all the time saddam and i fronted up a split says thank you very much like you. and we stay with football soccer if you prefer three stars from jim these two thousand and fourteen world cup winning squad have been got from the national team coach you all can live made the decision as a piss prepare for their first qualifier for next year's european championships live it was criticised for his team's data performance in what copy in russia and he's been struggling to find a winning formula ever since. four years they took to the pitch for germany and were pillars of the twenty fourteen world cup winning squad forward thomas miller twenty nine and the two thirty year old defenders mots well moles and jerome boa tang all currently employed by by in munich but now their international career is coming to an end after last year's disastrous world cup coach is finally making

radical changes. in the year of qualifying for the european championship twenty twenty we are sending out a clear signal the young national team players will have the space they need to fully develop they have to take responsibility now. even at byron munich the three players have dealt with frequent injuries and delivered modest performances so lives decision did not come completely out of the blue as suggested by boa tang's reaction on twitter i'm sad about this news because it has always been the greatest thing for me to represent my country however i respect the new course and understand the decision of the national team coach now boa tang and her most will have to make room for the next generation. that's been helping you up to date with the top stories that they're following for you on the. breaking news the south
