to their countries despite them being us citizens democrats condemned his racist comments but republicans have thrown their support behind the president. so here's part of a speech in which he goes after the 4 minority lawmakers. to the suggestion for the hate filled extremists who are constantly trying to tear our country down they never ever did the good decision that's why i say if they don't like it a little leaves little. they're always selling us out on the run and how to do this out of the you know what if they don't love it tell em to leave it. all right some very inflammatory words there from the u.s. president let's put them into perspective with the cold when virt and america analyst at the german council on foreign relations here in berlin hi nicole thank you for joining us we heard those words there trump taunting these congressmen

they're all a minority congresswoman they are all u.s. citizens as well we've heard inflammatory comments from the president in the past so how significant is this very significant because it sets the tone not only in the next few weeks by maybe for the future and also for the future election campaign so we should be very concerned because it will further. divide the u.s. society on the particular very heated issue of migration ok so this could set a really significant precedent is what you're saying absolutely it also this chant send her back it also reminds us of a chant from earlier rallies especially in the campaign trail before he became president which was lock her up he aimed that at as a democratic rival hillary clinton do you see comparisons there between these 2 chance absolutely i mean in steering this excitement and the sentiments he very much caters to the interest of the people who voted for him to a small segment who really want to. very tough on migration but somehow shifts the

attention to. toward single cases in order to maybe to overshadow the fact that his migration policies so far were not very effective and this is a term issue and something that. i have to tackle in the next few months in order to be the deliver the biggest nation that works and implementation of a decent policy that works and here we see that by steering emotions. people. might not get a result from that from him with respect to a really working in the creation policy well let's talk about immigration policy now what trump is not just targeting american citizens with his words he's also a continuing to target migrants reaffirming his promise to deport millions of undocumented migrants and that's left a lot of families living in fear of raids by the u.s.

immigration and customs enforcement agency also known as ice and idea because helen humphrey met one family seeking shelter from ice in a church. like most parents. couldn't imagine being forced to look for the children but as an undocumented immigrant great to spear is a realistic one rosa fled violence in el salvador 13 years ago now she's facing deportation post 3 children were born in ireland less young son john has down's syndrome and she's worried he wouldn't receive the same care in el salvador and so over the past 8 months she's been seeking sanctuary here at cedar lane unitarian universalist church in washington d.c. living apart from her children during the week so they can still attend their school. at the hc it was hard telling my kids that i had to seek refuge in that area i couldn't go back to my country and leave them here and i also. wouldn't take

them because i would be putting them in danger or they could be killed criminal gangs there recruit children from the age of 10. and if they refuse you know. that. raises deportation was ordered after she missed an early immigration hearing when i tracked her down they fitted with a monitoring bracelet and ordered her to leave the country and. a friend a small what's going on i had to tell her i was coming to say goodbye i had to put my children and another school i had to tell her that i was being deported. it was hard for me. i played it i'm with you all that. but i want to deport me because i missed a court session but we all know that doesn't make us a criminal or not or. is another one that the manly. reverend abby

jerram and she hopes that ice agents will avoid entering places of worship the church is now one of 50 religious communities offering sanctuary. we decided to become a physical sanctuary congregation driven by the guiding principles of our fate and in these times where we see the current administration engaging in. policies actions that threaten the safety and also the humanity of people. the church has also started an information campaign preparing undocumented immigrants for deportation raids and how to avoid arrest mainly by refusing to open the door. for years and many people like the threat of deportation raids has confined them to living their lives in the shadows of society every day activities like buying groceries or seeking medical care come with

a sense of fear now president trump says that ice is set to your abuse of quote millions of illegal aliens from the country the reality is closer to around 2000 people without papers and democratic lawmakers say that these kinds of statements are a tactic to intimidate communities just like this one let us once again that the community is not backing down or holding vigils to that rosa no they will protect her even if the trumpet ministration is taking a different stones. case of the mother we saw in that report really is just one of many of undocumented migrants as we heard really living in this climate of fear and at the same time we've seen the president use identity politics as an important tool ethnicity and migration and you said those are tools you were saying earlier to distract from the fact that some of his policies might not have worked but still do you think that rhetoric will help him get reelected to another term in

the white house in or until there will be the next elections so many things will happen in between but certainly in using this kind of language and showing that he's very tough on this issue. that he was satisfied parts of his electorate by by using this kind of speech i think the big challenge is for the democrats and for those republicans to really want to work constructively on that issue to come down to really be very precise on ideas how they want to do with the migration challenge which is very complex. and not to be hysterical and not jump on the same train and try. but to really have have a fact based discussion and we need to to be a balance to be more balanced and to unite people in the discussion about this this

topic because what trump is going is really he appeals to the emotions of people in the way that. any debate on on the particular. particularities of migration policy. is not in the forefront and this is what these people deserve if they need a clear guidance you know if they can stay and that which linda sions and how with us policy in the future deal with migrants in this is what the people expect and hopefully there will be a more sober discussion on the whole issue in the future all right nicole and heard from the german council on foreign relations here in berlin thank you for your analysis. now to some other stories making headlines around the world in japan at least 30 people are feared dead in a fire at an animation studio in the city of kyoto police say the fire was started deliberately but they have not revealed a motive a suspect has been detained and taken to the hospital to receive treatment for his injuries. india's space agency says it will make another attempt on monday to

a new report published today by the world health organization the public health body is calling the ebola outbreak in congo and international health emergency that warning comes after the 1st ebola case was confirmed in goma a city of more than a 1000000 people that neighbors rwanda. border with the democratic republic of congo health workers in yellow vests checking travel as temperatures before allowing them to enter just across the border in the city of goma the death of a traveling pastor has sparked fears the disease could spread. the outbreak has been declared a public health emergency of international concern by the world health organization . but the w.h.o. has stopped short of calling it a global threat saying the virus can still be contained regionally without travel bans. that does not. any street

sions on travel or trade which rather than stopping it. can actually hamper the fight side dressed street sions forced people to use informal and. crossings increasing the potential for the spread of disease the. vaccine is proving highly effective but a looming shortage of the drug has health officials worried dosages have been hard to prevent a shortage. that we have a gap in vaccine and there is a limitation of supply we wouldn't have been involved in the just of doses if we had adequate supplies of vaccine available right now so excel raising the real ability of actually there's a priority. it's been almost a year since the latest bold outbreak began in the region more than $1600.00 people

have died and twice as many have been infected international donors are being asked to step up funding to stop the crisis from spreading further. let's get more on the story with brianna p.f.s. she's with the aid organization world vision and she joins us from goma hi brianna the w.h.o. as we heard is calling this crisis in the public health emergency of international concern you were in goma where the 1st case was detected there how would you describe the situation where you are. look thank you for having me. correct this is becoming a critical point in the of all the response so since a case was confirmed in gary mom and that person died there's a lot of scene in the city of goma where it's strangely concerned because it is a city of more than 1000000 people that it's very close to the border of rwanda and sorry. we haven't yet started to hear of multiple cases across the border there is

every chance 1st of all the could spread and we've already saying more than 2 and a half 1000 cases nearly 2 thirds of people have died and one 3rd of cases of children in their lives have been completely disrupted by a fall off so you the situation is very critical and there's a lot of fear right now. as we heard there is a vaccine that has been proven to be effective but there is a shortage of that vaccine right now why is that why isn't it more available. that scenes are expensive and as everybody knows funding has been a critical issue in this response not just for the world health organization but for all aid agencies responding on the ground well bijan doesn't administer vaccines however we would urge people to consider that prevention is just as crucial as treatment sorry we can have vaccines and i know that they're being

administered to people who come into contact with people who have confirmed cases of the valar however if we can reach communities and make sure that their way or what to do to prevent the spread of a brawl to protect themselves from a bola then that's going to garri a really long way to help contain the of all the outbreak you mentioned prevention this is also an area that's been described as a war zone i mean what is making it so difficult at this point point to stop the spread of the virus. there's more than 100 armed groups in north and south cave the so it's a very challenging situation for aid agencies and help wickets to operate in just a few days ago we even had 2 health workers who were assassinated according to reports sorry it's extremely challenging and agencies and responders on the ground doing everything they possibly can to containable and stop the outbreak although we

are approaching one year since the valar was 1st declared i think agencies on the ground and the local health workers have done an amazing job to stop a whole lot from jumping borders until recent wake sorry they've done fantastic work but we need more support and the threat of security incidents should not be used as an excuse for the international community to not do more right brianna from world vision joining us from goma thank you very much. to istanbul now where a landmark trial continues today against a prominent turkish philanthropist and 15 others accused of organizing anti-government protests in 2013 the so-called gazey park protests started over a planned park construction in istanbul city center but they quickly spread to other parts of turkey now 6 years later the defendants are being accused of trying

himself in the dock as a defendant since june he's being tried in connection with easy pop protests. he's one of 16 accused most of them a prominent members of turkish civil society they face charges of attempting to overthrow the government but organizing an uprising. the prosecution is seeking a total of more than 47000 years in jail for the defendants. going over to digital with which and how there is no evidence in the indictment and that's why the accusations are baseless we're supposed to have a plan to come attempt is that out of sirte is the will of course it is is it unlawful yes it is the rule of law does not exist in turkey anymore the this is the . in may 22nd a few dozen istanbul residents occupied the park to prevent a construction project say police drove them away but that only fueled more

protests. it soon became about more than just preserving a few trees in istanbul the protests spread to other parts of turkey. and demonstrators started calling for the resignation of rigid type and one at the time prime minister now president i. told him at least and don't have the police and to protest by force those scenes back down to a place right here on a symbol central tax and square today there are no reminders of the mass protests 60 years ago the day is a park is right behind me nothing has been built there but the area is now being closely monitored by police they set up barricades to prevent gatherings anti-government demonstrations are not being tolerated i president add one is named as one of the injured parties in the indictment he has called the protests an attack on the unity of the country controlled and financed by foreign actors.

matter of a columnist for the pro-government newspaper daily sabbat agrees especially the rest. romanticized it so it's part of our arab spring. protests they thought it was kind of a turkish spring this is starting with the label it was about environmental issues but it turned to a while and activity that while and iran's anti end of the day and trying to topple a government which is the most critically elected government. john artillery the lawyer who is now on trial sees things differently for him he was an act of civil protest against an increasingly authoritarian government and that he says is something that nobody should be thrown in jail for.
