4:02 pm
country's northeast which is holding more than 70 cars and women and children it's the 1st time jim he's agreed to take and i assured him from syria what other european countries including france and belgium have already done so $100.00 children of jelly beds remain in syria. and for more on this story i'm joined by a political correspondent hans drowned at the bottom entry studios and with me in the studio i have the ws expert on islamic state florian noir health welcome to both of you let me start with you florian you've worked and travel extensively in that region what do we do about this repatriation well it is the 1st time freud german citizens or the children of german citizens who've joined islamic state in the so-called islamic state and 2 girls one boy who are pre-teens who are orphans and 16 month old toddler who is said to be
4:03 pm
a very serious medical medical condition. there are still over 100 children of german parents in syria and camps and the cause we're hoping that this 1st transfer will be one of many which will get all of these children back to back to germany so extensively this fall off some of the most vulnerable in that camp that you know joe do you hunt ron if this reback tradition is confirmed this would be of a significant development what is the german government been saying. the german government has confirmed that this is happening that had been waiting for the full doing making this confirmation until the children had in fact left syrian territory they're now on their way to beulah northern iraq that's the area of iraq that's under kurdish control in the care of german culture officials and they will be sent to germany from there as soon as their medical conditions are laws and all this is obviously a prime you know it's a very 1st time that germany has taken people in this case children from those camps in northern syria by the german government just as you saw
4:04 pm
a very reluctant very cagey about whether this is a singular event or whether other children might be taken from that area and certainly as far as the adults are concerned there's a great reduction steward's all of them to come back to germany during the syrian goods has been captured a lot of people from the ice as well as women and children many of them on this camp and who can know what is to syria why is it so important that these people be captured on video into their home countries that's what i mean some of the 11000 women and children who were part of the islamic so-called islamic states are in a whole county. is important for one reason the reason that's important is that the cost simply don't have the resources to deal with these people they can't be tried in syria the syrian president recognizes the government so they just have no way of dealing with these people who are stuck in those camps conditions and this comes on or there are children dying in these columns and. when i think remember the
4:05 pm
adults. and adults are still very much caught up in the ice ideology and they live in a separate part of the comp which is not even safe to visit and the children they're raising they will be indoctrinated by this radical ideology and if they're left to their devices they'll just drop to be the next generation of i just that is of course the concern of something you'll be going on still do you know some western governments have taken back retail use from a so-called camps why are the on the courts are reluctant to take that specially women and children who does know can a child cannot be radicalized at that stage if i told you why it is so kind of reluctant to take them back and. the children certainly are not in real focus in these considerations from the part of the german government and also other governments in europe but it's the adults as mothers and the fathers as the men and the women that are regarded as a very serious threat to the security both in germany and in other european
4:06 pm
countries and so germany is certainly is very reluctant to take back any of these out of men and women that have been considerations to have them tried for instance in iraq in a special tribunal i think there are still those questions going on about that behind the scenes there are considerations what could be done to them once they are in germany could there be charged in the german court in many cases because this can be very difficult because it's very difficult to prove crimes against these people that happened in an area where germany certainly had no access and then there's the question what does one do with these people once they are in germany whether in jail or whether or not in jail they need to be put under surveillance in some form they need to be controlled in some form it's all a very complex very very expensive matter and certainly there are political considerations as well a right wing opposition parties in germany certainly would have a field day saying that you know terrorists are being allowed back into germany
4:07 pm

4:15 pm
but 1st to a historic milestone on the road to german reunification and the end of the cold war in 1809 the i'm curtain still divided europe between these germans feeling communism unexpectedly allowed to cross that border and to austria after that it wasn't long before the berlin wall came tumbling down the that historic event has been dramatically today by the leaders of germany hungary who don't always see eye to eye on the issues of borders and refugees. solemn moment to comment it's a moment in history that changed its cars german chancellor angela merkel and time gary and prime minister viktor orban both countries shop around 30 years ago a picnic in this time darien city at the border with austria led to tearing down off a historic barrier and your. austin picnic will be the big nick became the scene of the biggest breakout of people from is germany since the construction of the wall
4:16 pm
in $961.00. that's the pan-european picnic it was organized at the austria-hungary in puerto durham the gathering at least $600.00 is germans crossed the border and escapes for freedom in the west bank of ember an estimated $70000.00 had fled via hungary this event was seen as a key factor in the fall of the berlin wall itself 3 months later shock on the stand by its food shop run as an example of what we europeans can achieve when we stand up for our core values age. why america and our band celebrated the this pivotal moment in the fall of the aaron curtain it was clear that the relationship between the 2 leaders has strained in recent years are in sas he holds to chairman chance 1st work in high regard because people like you are but you are is steam is increased by the knowledge that from debate to debate from dispute to dispute from day to day your constantly needs uniting.
4:17 pm
but radical and all band hold very different views on how europe's borders should be managed nowadays it's known as one of the biggest critics of america's decision to leave the german but us open and that's hundreds of thousands of refugees into the country. now standing by on is huge obvious political correspondent simon young someone just let has been making it quite clear where she stands on the issue of refugees how do you think her remarks of being received there. well the cheerleaders went on after the official ceremony to have a bilateral meeting and they came out afterwards gave a press conference and you could see that there are different assessments of what the vents of 30 years ago here in shops are on mean and employed for today's
4:18 pm
refugee he policy. angela merkel talking about the necessity of a humanitarian response and helping people who are really in need. saying well you know the right thing to do is to strengthen europe's borders he says that hungary is been doing that of course it's ironic because many people would say that hungary is now putting up borders and preventing refugees from crossing them where 30 years ago they opened the border inadvertently admittedly but it became within just a few weeks of that so-called pan-european picnic government policy and as you said it paved the way really for the end of division in europe so you know a very different situation here now and hungry as a country that is still in the focus of this anti migrant group within the
4:19 pm
european union angle americal is here today trying to build bridges with hungry and emphasize the common points between the governments as he put it so some of the 2 leaders united in celebrating and commemorating this historic anniversary of 30 years ago but from what you're saying this still remains very far apart on the problem today of refugees what message did mr orbán have for the german chancellor . well on that question he said you know the the right thing to do now is to protect europe's borders he said that in 30 years ago they had opened the border to promote the freedom of europe and it's to promote that he says and it's a point he's made many times before you know in order to protect the freedoms they obtain in the small european countries central european countries particularly must
4:20 pm
you know now as it were defend european borders and european values as he sees them but the 2 leaders were also talking about other things to do about migration for instance combating the causes are working together on developing development aid in africa also talking about the enlargement of the european union to include the west balkan nations like. or bosnia and herzegovina for instance because i think both leaders think if those countries come into the european union then migration flows in future will perhaps be less of a problem at least for hungary and that could of course help this bilateral relationship which is a little bit cold at the moment right simon young 100 thank you very much for your reporting from there. thank you the big weekend for leon
4:21 pm
beilein fans as the club made its been to see her debut after decades in the lower divisions she had to break through sunday's action is talkie from de w.'s for says workable you must a proud day for only on fans but the day ended in trashing disappointment so you know they may have lost big but at least they stay true to their values so what happened and retell was that when yawns all profess they decided to organize a stimulus boycott which is basically an atmosphere boycott so they remained silent for the 1st 15 minutes of the match and the reasoning behind all of this is because . like i just said a club that stays true to their values they set that life is the antithesis of what football should be about that they only are so successful because of because of their corporate sugardaddy. but at the end it didn't make much of an impact on the field because it was like steak that had the last laugh ended up winning 4 nil and
4:22 pm
we have those highlights let's take a look oh beautiful in berlin fans have been waiting for this moment for decades and the emotion showed finally in the big time of those who didn't live to see that they were also there in spirit. beyond the 1st of all is a very different ground to what i'll be like to get used to in the bunkers later but the negative reception for the club backed by an energy drinks firm was very familiar. to known players were looking to hit the ground running and show the togetherness which helped win them promotion. to carrying out a muted start on 15 minutes of supporters brought into life just as they did like 6 marcelle house to have struck. here not as one's 1st one as a good goal celebration is like to pass newman gave the fullback far too. much room
4:23 pm
but it was still a fine finish. a crack of a muscle subject so doubled the lead on 31 minutes if you knew and didn't know how tough the bomb was that you would be they knew now oh you don't coach fisher bravely put his glasses back on but it soon got worse to move than a bus through to make it 3 no just before half time. because if and cuckoo grafter for after the break. you knew my heart broken at the end it will be a tough season for the promoted berliners but the coach club's supporters will keep on singing. so he would desperately disappointing for. sunday's other big game frankfurt was up against hoffenheim and frank freud despite losing a lot of the key players had an amazing season opener it took them only 36 seconds to score a goal thanks for mocking him tega and hoffenheim there for you know
4:24 pm
a complete defensive breakdown and i'll go hoffenheim did manage to have more of the bar they just couldn't do anything with it they did score 2 goals both of them good offside so for frank for this is just spectacular they lost 2 of their best players in lucknow york which ends of us going to lay out the drive but one has to see the shock result of this weekend's win this league i was really but i munich and a drawer too had to believe at all but they have added someone new to the team yes they have so by and confirm the known signing of philippe christine you know they always have the option to buy and one of the main reasons that they brought him in was because they need more creativity on that on that team but if you look at their transfer policy recently it's so confusing and it just it does a lot of desperate moves i mean it's clear that they've been able to fill the vacuum. that i and robin and frank rebury have left behind especially if you talk
4:25 pm
