at the social democrat stand nick talks with candidates how quickly they see this can do you think that chemists really has a problem with racism or is it somewhat exaggerated what is your opinion do you think you'd have to go as a standard that says i think there's no german city that's free of racism i believe that we have a big problem with how we deal with racism which is all about whether there are cities for instance rostock in mecklenburg for palmer which had problems with it for a very long time and also made negative headlines but they tackled it head on that's happened when i get the feeling that in cannes next people avoid the topic because it's uncomfortable they're afraid it will harm them just to name it but this silence only makes things worse which is especially. that silence is expected to benefit one party the most the a.f.d. saxony is the right wing populist stronghold so they've also put up a stand down town the f.t.
12:01 pm
candidate he tells nick it's the foreigners not the neo nazis who are the problem. hello i'm nick. you know my neck i'm stephanie i'm running for parliament. i thought how come it was kim i come from chemists was born and raised here what 3 main statements does the f.t. have for cam that these if you came into the causal the biggest problem here in the city is with immigration and that's a given you hear it from every citizen and they're also unsettled because we're simply not used to that. life from east german times yes historically but but we had vietnamese cubans etc before you can even write i know and that was good . but at the time there were in principle people who came here for professional training and then they went back home and took those skills with them and we have to look after our own people 1st and those of worked and paid taxes here 3 years on
12:02 pm
from what it only showed them during the discussion the a.f.d. stand is surrounded by demonstrators carrying brightly colored umbrellas it's a protest action to show that chemist's is a colorful and diverse place but the a.s.d. members don't take the protests seriously the atmosphere is still quite relaxed yet the incident shows kenya's is divided. i'm sure i. asked of him thanks for the talk there were some good arguments made but as i said a few opinions that just don't fit with my world view and isn't my bet that i can't see as he won't vote for be a if d. that much is clear but he's afraid that the right wing populist could triumph he longs for a chemist's that's governed by tolerance and respect the way opponents treat one another in martial arts. i tried

12:07 pm
volunteer medics who've been helping injured demonstrate groups. i'm bryan thomas thanks so much for joining us g 7 leaders are heading into the final day of their summit into the in the french resort of beer it's right now they're expected to focus on climate change and the fires burning in the amazon brazil earlier u.s. president down trump held an unscheduled news conference half the summit sitting alongside a gyptian leader of delphi topple c.z. the president touched on a number of key issues including the middle east and ran wild more on that in a moment on the dispute with china he had this to say over here in the 3rd was. very very very good for him in business they want to be able to meet you face
12:08 pm
very important. even before you look it was really a lot of things that happened his wife person and she's a great leader here stands and it's going to be great for that is going to be great to be great in the world he gives his and he's able to do things that other people are able to do so we were still ever sure to. negotiate see what happens but it wouldn't make it. earlier i crossed over to did abused air mathis in beer at sea gave us some reaction to the u.s. president's most recent comments on the china trade bill in the past 2 days reporting here from the g. 7 i already announced once that president donald trump had softened his stance on china when he said he had 2nd thoughts about escalating relations with china in other words regretting that they came to this tit for tat straight war about then the white house clarified that actually what the president meant was in other words
12:09 pm
touring more oil into the fire so he should have been tougher slapping tougher sanctions on china and what we have now. again the exact opposite of the president saying we're close to a deal so maybe we need to wait until the chinese out already confirmed that they actually called trump and also maybe we need to wait for the white house to see what they made of the statement ok so time to stand back a little bit on this statement there was also some comments on iran the president addressing that issue of course iran is figuring prominently right now in beer it's with the iranian foreign minister making a surprise visit there let's take a listen to what the president had to say about iran. that is are is a red is concerned. that was with great respect i spoke to president roh yesterday. and to everything he was doing and i approve whatever he was doing i thought it was fine and i think it's too soon to be i didn't want to me. i said i
12:10 pm
don't want to. break but it should be told to meet with the manager to be a great thing for great potential again or go what were the reactions and responses to these are comments coming from the president about iran. brian again quite a quite extraordinary here where we hear the exact opposite of what we heard yesterday from from the white house and from from the american delegation here now it seems in fact that trump is moving away from the go it alone montra that he's been pursuing the days before here when he was surprised that the iranian foreign minister had arrived here and where he was a lot more distanced to the idea of easing tensions with iran now german chancellor angela merkel made clear that it was a french initiative to invite the rainey and foreign minister but it was this
12:11 pm
decision was taken by the french presidency here the host of the g. 7 meeting in light of the spirit in light of the meeting with trump and the others where everyone agreed that dialogue should be continued and that tensions should be eased with iran and so it looks today like the president approves of that and basically that is something that's a good sign for the others they will welcome that message. that was reporting from beer ads for us a bit earlier well as mentioned the iranian foreign minister made that unexpected appearance but iran wants to diffuse tensions with the u.s. after 2015 international nuclear accord the u.s. is applying a policy of maximum pressure that. did obvious reasons copper has been looking into what they mean for ordinary iranians. the

economic heart of the iranian capital beats in the bazaar at 1st glance it seems to be bustling here. but looks can be deceiving. has traveled all the way from isaan to 7th fabrics but business is slow today. and i was a mover 2 inches. this is one of the most important parts of the bazaar this is where clothes and textiles are part and sold this area is known worldwide as the trade hall but as you can see it's almost empty it shows you how badly the economy is doing right now hardly anyone comes here. to see nice. some days many traders don't make a single sale u.s. sanctions the depreciation of the local currency and now the standoff in the persian gulf have all taken their toll. hopes for fresh negotiations between the u.s. and iran. we have to solve our problems and make peace with the rest of the
12:13 pm
world. we live in a time of communication you can't close the doors to the outside world since many traders here share that opinion but by no means all of them the constant uncertainty has made people wary and tired many believe a new deal with the u.s. under donald trump it's no longer possible. there should be a war we want war then at least we'll know where we stand for better or worse. more than a year since the u.s. pulled out of the nuclear deal such sentiments have become more commonplace. i set off to discover what people think in other parts of the city. i'm not surprised to hear words like these down here in the south of tehran where
12:14 pm
views have always been watching more conservative but is the mood all over the capital shifting to find out let me take you to the north of to run but clocks tick differently. i stop to visit a man west been following the situation in iran very closely. i want to know what effect all of this has on the political mood in the country there were on the administration i actually was elected on an agenda of dialogue and engagement with the world to settle differences on the nuclear issue and other issues but now that you know the nuclear file and the j.c. is not there because of in terms of u.s. withdrawal and other parties iran complains that they are not living up to their commitments it is basically radicalizing the general public which was probably gauge mount at electing a government that was calling for gates went with the world now it is turning the
12:15 pm
other way around. i've come to the northern part of the city to hear what people have to say it's mostly young well educated and well to do iranians who live here they voted for president rouhani and celebrated his commitment to the nuclear deal nobody here wants to see war. they should make friends and be done with it. or want to help us we should be friends with the whole world and work together so we can all move forward. or maybe i've given up hope 1st our regime has to check. change. war or regime change the political viewpoints into iran has become more extreme in both directions. as preview now some of the other stories making the news at this hour in sudan the death toll from flooding triggered by heavy rains as climbed to at least 62 more
