nearly 5 years ago one of the suspects ever stand trial plus u.s. president donald trump launches his 2020 reelection campaign addressing thousands of supporters in all nando florida trump said that he was spearheading a movement with one goal. that's cold keep america great. at the women's world cup and the australian matilda's waltz into the tournament last 16 with a comprehensive win over jamaica. i'm sorry kelly welcome to the program new figures from the u.n. refugee agency show record numbers of people have been displaced by war or persecution more than 70000000 people around the world. currently displaced now

most refugees come from syria the war there has forced nearly 7000000 people to leave the country also afghanistan south sudan myanmar and somalia also seeing millions leaving because of conflict and persecution where are they going turkey tops the list with host countries they have 3700000 people followed by pakistan uganda and sudan germany is 5th on the list with more than 1000000 refugees we take a closer look now at uganda and ask why this country has been more welcoming to refugees and some others. seen by sea stitch by stitch it is phoneys making a new dress she recently trained as a seamstress as part of a u.n. refugee aid project in 2016 she fled with her family from war torn south sudan to uganda. on the way of the rebels came they took our property tortured

us in different ways and beat us. it's. like millions of others from south sudan edith and her family found refuge in uganda refugee a.t.f. functions differently people aren't simply confined to a camp like king kenya refugees who were arrive here are immediately given a work permit and land which is provided by the communities and then you neighbors they also receive monthly benefits. we have cash and food as well because when we give them food get that is restricted to the 4 that we've given them but when you give them cash they have the option to buy and supplement what about that that that that is so it's option. ugandans have a strong willingness to give to those in need for 20 years they also suffered during the civil war they also benefit from international aid which can be used to build hospitals or schools but of course there are still challenges

as a young school we have almost challenges one of it is the infrastructure like the classrooms are not and now we don't have a laboratory we don't have a library though we have the books but we have nowhere to put the them then also the teachers move from for these things to come so the stuff does then also the students especially the girl move from far distance to come and learn in the school . no bit of room as school is in a jew money district in the north of the country 400000 people live here off of them refugees some of whom arrived here 50 years ago many are from south sudan where the most recent civil war broke out in 2013 it's led to an ongoing conflict between rival factions titus jogo the refugee officer in the district is happy that

the refugees were able to find a new place to call home in uganda he believes it benefits the locals to the prisoners over the summer and yours mindy's so many people have been employed not not in a city from a disability but it is well underway tuck's when you look at the infrastructure development we have constructed access what roads if it is a tremendous well constructed. of course truck that it says it does but there are also negative aspects results is like would supplies on to in doing in january this year almost $6000.00 more refugees arrived in uganda but it wants to keep its borders open and can only manage this influx with the help of age money at least for the time being as uganda's policies continue to be put into action it's hoped that refugees will become self-sufficient like seamstress aegis phony. and joining

me now here in the studio to discuss this is the un's high commissioner for refugees for the program they thank you so much and welcome to the program thank you you said it yourself this number more than $70000000.00 people displaced around the world shocking why do you think it is still growing it's the symptom of a world without peace even more specifically the world in which we have become unable to make peace look at the images we've just watched in uganda the influx of refugees in uganda is due to mainly 2 conflicts one. insult sudan the other one in congo and unless we become more efficient in stopping wars we will continue these see these figures are growing and becoming bigger i want to talk a little bit more about the atmosphere toward refugees right now because we have some governments closing borders building walls even paying other governments in order to take in refugees i'm thinking about turkey specifically your response well

my response is that. restrictions closures pushbacks are not only wrong let's remember that these people are fleeing from war conflict. violence discrimination so they need to have so it's not only wrong to push them back but it is also not efficient the problem would not go away it would just move to another part of the world it would be a problem there and it is just waiting to come back to the rich countries i want to talk about a bit about those attitudes though that are out there because i mean you know we have attitudes really deteriorating not only toward refugees but also toward immigrants in recent years seen as a burden on the system how do you change that mindset i mean has there been a failure here in managing the message in terms of what refugees bring to the table for various countries there have been many failures in managing these population

movements we have to recognize that. in europe for example they were designed for much smaller numbers when the numbers became bigger in 2015 europe was not ready and that sent the wrong message but also some unscrupulous politicians have exploited that they have realised that by portraying these people as a threat they would gain consensus and votes now this is the wrong approach as i said this doesn't solve the problem. i am always a bit hesitant to present this figure as dramatic it is dramatic of course 70000000 people in need of protection of safety it's traumatic but he's also manageable we're 7 and a half 1000000000 people on this planet it surely we can find ways like uganda did to manage these flows as we heard from your report on this is the 7th consecutive year that the number of displaced people around the world has been on the rise how

do you see the next 7 years. developing and are there perhaps any silver linings any areas in which you are seeing progress we have now something called the refugee compact this is an agreement between the countries in the world to improve the manner in which we respond to refugee crisis it was very interesting what we heard just a few minutes ago from uganda because uganda is a model country in that respect it receives refugees it keeps borders open and god knows what the burden it is for them millions from south sudan from the democratic republic of congo and yet people are not put in camps they're allowed to access services that are allowed to work but of course that model which we are promoting needs a lot of support uganda doesn't have all the resources as we heard from that teacher so we should not take for granted that possibly talent that we should support that and in that way i think that if the model is replicated and we're doing it in about

15 countries these these days we have a new blueprint for a better support model to refugee crises this is a reason for optimism amidst the gloom in the midst the fears so a shocking report but some hope for the future joining us with a perspective we thank you very much for the day high commissioner for refugees at the united nations we appreciate it thank you very much. that's prosecutors say that they will charge 4 suspects with murder in the shooting down of malaysia airlines flight m.h. 70 at a press conference in a dutch city the international joint investigation team confirmed earlier reports about one ukrainian and 3 russian men facing charges for downing the passenger plane. they will be tried in the hague beginning in march of next year into life 2014 flight m h 17 was hit by a russian made missile while crossing eastern ukraine all 298 people on

board were killed. after 5 years investigating the case the international team helles this as a major breakthrough here's what the dutch chief prosecutor had to say that the public prosecution service suspects the 4 suspects. the fact that their plan their cooperation and their acts on and around july 24000 have led to this shooting a flight m.h. 17. even though they have not pushed the button themselves. their suspicion that they have closely cooperated in order to obtain the back to her and put it in prince's ssion on the launch site with a cool to shoot a plane. let's get more now we are joined by the russian investigative journalist rolando bro hotel for he is the editor in chief of the insider in russia and took part in the investigations for leading to m.h. 17 welcome to the program and thank you so much for joining us i'd like to begin by

asking you what more can you tell us about the people who were named today. well 1st of all this more on that 1st 4 suspects and i think a dozen and over the joint investigation to mention that there will be more people . in this trial and i think the most important ones will be in the future i mean. one of the russian generals that is to cut you off and high rate to see rufus are you finding out who hold of the wealth found by the joint investigation overland kit and they say that as. the main suspects in this sedation but they were not mentioned to date. some people may suppose that this is kind of some political decision an uptick in wolf hiring in the soaps but i think that this is you know going to miss the beach and so on there are several

suspects well maybe. not super important but it is very easy to plant evidence or involvement because for example our group in wants her to still hold the parents of them that's care about republic and of course there are 2 or 3 of all goods you have encountered rights that you mind don't have to. investigate these you tube was openly in charge of this so old this 4 suspects. well we have. too many evidence about them so we're rusty dornin rusty government and deny anything about them but ultimately i mean we know russia not cooperating with the investigation how likely is it that we will ultimately see these suspects brought to justice. well it would be it will be very surprising if the killer would cut great with a judge right so it would be very strange that it would be suicidal so i don't

expect expect anything of that of course russia who would do some steps to discolor a situation that they would try to find kind of compromise like. well is this a step further tests and if that was to them mistake but russia and the government and last month soldiers who were on the field all of that would be forcible compromise for letting the poison but. i think no one in the but something would agree to this compromise because. i think in iraq there was involved profit off and government wants and everybody understands that so there is no room old space for question of we can do or step back and to find something on the ground with with the european elements because we've fortunately you fear as a commander and if. he's personally guilty as a commander in chief that's a very strong statement to make. tell us why. because we know

that book a sound system and other have a whimper and so we're crossing the russian border and that could not happen without direct order or commanding to also we know that these high ranking. officers and generals or minister of defense they always. do something only of the have direct order from above so nothing of this would have done without. without knowing what their present and moral what without these concrete order of course you didn't order to sort of down and listen because no one knew that this is a simple answer and then all of this is moot but you think what about that but put in these things and to remove its missile system to ukraine into and he's his responsibility for for the conflict or for the president the right presence or

russian military in that there are 3 here and he's of course beauty and like in this criminal investigation also i think you will be found guilty to roland about how tough and it are in chief at the insider in russia we know who took part in the investigations for leading to an m.h. 17 and we thank you for sharing your insights. into. a human rights expert says that saudi crown prince mohammed bin some man should be investigated over the killing of the journalist jamal khashoggi agnes cited what she called credible evidence of been some months liability in wednesday's report she said that she found that the probes conducted so far by saudi arabia and turkey had failed to meet international standards now because she was killed last october in saudi arabia as it is double consulate. let's get a quick check of some other stories making news around the world candidates to become the next leader of britain's conservative party have clashed in a t.v.

a prestigious german peace prize for exposing the threats that face humanity and our commitment. to the women's world cup where there was plenty of drama last night with slots in the last 16 up for grabs among those in action were outside contenders australia they defeated jamaica 41 to reach the next round it came in no small part to banks to the performance of the team captain. australia got off to the perfect start when captain said through this stunning video when the 11 minutes of the fight draw finish from australia stop play out. on captain fantastic maybe chew with another hit on the points of this mini australia you cruising. but some tough jamaican cycling promise they will going down without a fight. i'm so it proved to me the pulled one but the final so that only in the full team maybe it's just one thing but the hope

was short lived a somewhat defending soul code by good 3rd the 1st australian ever to the world cup the author of that it was job done in the 83rd minute some slapstick still keeping feel good about the food of the jamaica concert the tournament australia through to the next round. at the copa america hosts for zille were struggling in the group stages they were held to a nil nil draw by been a swell and a match brimming with controversy despite dominating brazil had 3 goals ruled out including this late strike from barcelona as for lifo timeo 2 of the goals were chalked off by the video assistant referee oprah zilzal top their group their inability to win saw them booed off the pitch after the finals. and in tennis roger federer began his grass court campaign with a comfortable win over john millman at germany's hala open this was player is

warming up for next month's wimbledon tournament he lost in the men at last year's u.s. open but was far too strong for his trailing opponent here. federer a 20 time grand slam champion and going through to the 2nd round in straight sets 766363. federal will play joe wilford song the next after he beat fellow frenchmen ben wopat but perhaps. in tribute to the football world cup in your country they momentarily forgot about their rackets aftercare dropped while you were serving that provided the perfect excuse for an impromptu kick around and you have to say they wouldn't look out of place on a football pitch some impressive ball control their pair went for the big finish but like the tennis match he ended up. they keep the up the lives there. for the 1st time the prestigious german peace prize is going to a photographer. got

photos and biography made it to the silver screen in a documentary by german director and friend. what especially fascinated me was that he knows so much about any situation he's getting into. and that he gets into it so deeply. that he's not a tourist not a visitor not someone who just drops in. he remains in the situation for weeks and months of demons and he knows the people and that's why he's earned the right to tell their story. condemned to death. in the film salgado says that at some point he couldn't stand witnessing the pain of others anymore his soul became sick. in an attempt to heal in 2004 so gado started the genesis project he spent 8 years travelling around the world photographing landscapes indigenous peoples and wildlife he focused not on suffering but on learning from
