the boy. this is news coming to you live from berlin young climate activists are returning to the streets reach out to next friday's for a future with one stages another day of marches around the world. after the biggest mass protest in history. has any closer to delivering policy change also on the program the u.s. treasuries and abused his power and the white house competition that's the accusation. by their very act of coming forward

more dedication to country more of an understanding of the presence of oath of office. than the president himself. until the crowds work to build an impeachment case against donald trump as he tells supporters it's just a close. call and it got the font of best for a presidential election overshadowed by a surge in taliban violence extremists are threatening to disrupt the vote with suicide bombings and rocket attacks. catherine fucka big weekend in the. dortmund fans expect more time after the team juba trying to put last week to moscow to receive and cole have the mentality to challenge for the title. i don't well i'm with touching up pleasure to have your company. so it is have

become a come to be linked with climate change demonstrations and more protests are being held around the world today tens of thousands of students have crowded into public spaces in new zealand they've been joined by parents and grandparents in what's being billed as the country's 1st in to generation strike. also underway in south korea where hundreds of students boycotted the classes and rallied in the capital soon to demand why leaders take immediate action on climate change. just a short while ago i spoke to hans bond who was at the climate protests in the german capital berlin i asked him about the protest has and the message well it was that the big protests in germany were exactly a week ago today then more than 200000 people were on the streets here in berlin far more than a 1000000 across germany so why the protests this today are very large elsewhere in

the world in berlin as you can see and in about several dozen cities across germany the numbers are rather in the hundreds today rather than the thousands but the mood remains very very fierce very combative as you can see the demonstration here is now moving onto the streets people are getting on to their bicycles and going to be riding across protesting against the political parties participating in the german government protesting against the german government's climate policies early on i spoke to some of the people in the crowd and i think we might have some of their voices that we could listen to now. that this plan will not meet the targets. we did our homework and we know that we have to act now and we know that we are in the middle of a climate crisis. came back climate package is an absolute insult to us young people as we stand here on a day like this it's a slap in the face because i'm afraid for my future i'm afraid for the future of

many people around the world. it's just scary so i'm fine. thanks. so how could there and as you said these young chess just feel very strongly about the course but what if all of them happy with the pauses that the german government has come up with which was announced last friday. yes indeed the german government's plans to address the cry of climate crisis have been roundly condemned by people in the frightful future movement and also about position parties in germany people here feel that it's much too little much too late in fact they speak with distain about these plans saying that there has been a lot of talk for decades and factor and in recent weeks the german government has made all sorts of promises but none of these they feel have been kept and so there is a continues to be a lot of anger directed against the german government and against plans which are

regarded as being much too little much too late and you know how much of an impending 10 mins how day you speech in the un have on the protest and here. is indeed that was a speech that was. that all the protesters here praise and in fact they repeated that how dare you call that seems have been a kind of rallying call amongst the youngsters here that's repeated it several times in the rally earlier and they feel that what's great of tune back was saying that that kind of anger that she's expressing that's something that people here feel very much themselves as we heard i think in the earlier voices there are people here that are really afraid about their future and very angry at the parents' generation in fact what happened to us earlier we were arriving here with all our equipment in a car and youngsters came up to us and said how dare you come to a climate demonstration in a car driven by a petrol engine so i think that's the kind of challenges that

a lot of parents are facing when talking to their children these days. that was a car find hundreds drawn at a climate totus in berlin just a short while ago now staying with environmental issues and russia ranks as the was fort biggest polluter but last week's huge climate change protests worldwide were not matched in russia only a few 100 demonstrators took to the streets there in a handful of cities in the capital in moscow one protest has been going it alone our reporter emily show when i caught up with him. he may be part of a global movement but in russia he's often on his own. has been making his solo stands for climate awareness every friday since march his sign reads strike for climate the 25 year old wants more people to join russia's friday for future movement but he's up against the authorities they regularly refuse his attempts to register mass rallies in moscow but his one man protests don't need

a permit he says the police are never far away. so. i'm not scared anymore. there were fears i felt responsibility for what's happening and i'm more angry than scared now i'm angry that we can't take to the streets like the people in europe because it's really important for us to all go out together and i know that i can't change everything alone i am angry at the politicians who are infringing our right to protest but over. a shock says there's not much reporting about environmental issues in russia he tells people about climate change whenever he can but not everyone is concerned. no there are no global warming is debatable they say it's getting more then sometimes it gets colder they say that's the same thing it's hard for me to understand when you will know people didn't used to be worried about and about mental issues but the new generation is more conscious and they want their

children to grow up in a cleaner place. for the environment so that the planet doesn't drive and garbage. every day issues like trash management have made more people concerned about the environment in russia even outside the capital there have been large protests across the country against garbage dumps including near the northern city of our congress. no we're going to russian president vladimir putin has recently changed his rhetoric on climate change and finally signed the paris agreement to limit global warming. you know that's when it comes to the environment of the climate things keep getting worse if we don't do anything then fast paced technological development will only intensify the whole range of environmental challenges we're facing including climate change in the depletion of natural resources. a shock once more than just words from the russian government for global climate action week he has helped organize demonstrations around russia

a handful of young people are taking turns striking in moscow thinks even small protests are worth it yeah. i'm. now that i'm fighting for my future as well for example what's the point of having children if it's not clear what the state of the planet will be and the nature around us is being destroyed if we don't fight now we won't have a future we don't have a choice. is convinced that the tide is turning in russia but until others join him he plans to keep up his lone protests for the planet. u.s. president trying to score the democrats' impeachment inquiry a disgrace and he's looking for ways to end it the whistleblower complaint accuses the president of soliciting interference in next year's u.s. elections and unnamed intelligence officer alleges that pressed ukraine's president to investigate his leading democratic rival former vice president joe biden and his son the complaint also accuses the white house of suppressing the content of that

months of delays and uncertainty of coniston is set to vote in its 4th presidential election on saturday a security is still a major problem. in extremis are threatening to disrupt the vote with suicide bombings and rocket attacks there are fears that violence during the election could deepen political instability. it's scenes like this that the afghan government is desperate to avoid on election day the security plan to protect voters at polling stations was 8 months in the making but violence is just one of the challenges facing the officials organizing the elections 5 years ago allegations of systematic fraud marred the last one abdullah abdullah the man who lost to the current president ashraf ghani then is still his main contender now but. with all our strength we will provide any kind of fraud in the selection at the last election

are certain. we won't accept any government based on fraud but it happened because afghanistan was facing multiple threats at that time the start of withdrawal of foreign troops the rise of islamic states and also the taliban have an upper hand. to fight electoral fraud around a 100000 election observers will monitor the nearly $5000.00 polling stations across the country but they will be allied to candidates. one 3rd of the afghan defense forces will be on hand but that is still not enough some polling stations will stay shut because the army cannot protect them voters are worried both about their personal safety and fair elections without that we will participate in the elections and large numbers in iraq as a government that it will provide us with security and she was the terms parents of the election was going to follow was actually the taliban are threatening us all the time to stop us from participating in these elections i threaten us every day

but despite this i believe most people will vote in the elections to defend democracy. and for whatever couple of american on protecting both voters lives and democracy is a tall order for a government in a country where violent militants control or are active in almost half of the territory. joining me now from kabul is journalist. anina in the cost of gone voters were not deterred by threats of violence by the taliban would be the same this time where people go out and vote tomorrow. so i've been timed to a lot of people about this over the last few days and people in the major city select call general of wild in the east they're saying that if they feel safe in the city. they will go out there they will try to go out and vote those who are adamant to vote the other thing we have to remember is that there are areas of the

country where it's almost impossible for people to vote there even districts in kabul where it's just too risky there's too much of a taliban presence for people to be able to go safely to a polling station and cast a ballot so these kinds of questions are going to come up and the other issue is that if you look at the election so far from literally the 1st day of the election right up until now there have been constant attacks on. election gatherings on candidates on. campaign events and so you know these sorts of things are really. adding to the fear amongst the people because the taliban have been very adamant this time that they will absolutely. you know sort of target this entire process and i think it will really come down to what it looks like across the country tomorrow so that elections are taking place in a very vague tense atmosphere is more to say now what the leading contender is that doesn't have gandhi lucky to be reelected or is he facing stiff opposition. he's

definitely spacing a much more concerted opposition and i feel like his team would have imagined in the beginning of the election you know he's definitely seeing his chief executive of a lot of the law gain a lot of momentum. but of course they're both saddled with this idea of the unity government they both agreed to you know that the package before me to lucian to all of the problems of the last election and the fact that they reach a unity government which led to the creation of the chief executive office and president when you've been declared the president without official numbers actually being published these are issues that they'll have to keep facing right up until that and these are things that you know they really have to try and answer for and to try and correct against and we've seen that with doctor after law with the chief executive by specially basing his campaign on insulting the president and accusing

him of any number of things as a way of trying to distance himself from him and we've seen the president stay away from the. you know there been 2 debates so far he hasn't shown up to a single one of painted this election's also come shortly after peace talks between the u.s. and taliban a broke off one of the and that is that a factor in these elections. it was a huge factor because because you know if you talk to anybody up until september 8th so up it's well it's a september 7th and anybody in the country they would ask is there going to be an election. and as soon as donald trump went on his sort of like twitter tirade saying absolutely refuses to talk with the towbar that was when it became clear to the afghan people and to all of the candidates you know starting on september 8th is when each candidate really pushed their election campaign into overdrive posters started going up in more places banners went up advertisements were all over the television they started traveling to the provinces and making appearance and as i

said staging debates and in giving interviews and things like that whereas before it was relatively quiet was actually very quiet and it was very quiet compared to previous elections so it sort of peace talks the cancellation of them made sure that there would be an election. in kabul on the eve of presidential elections in afghanistan thank you very much. the u.s. companies that donovan is a long list in american military history the korean galvani in eastern afghanistan is about the most lethal battlegrounds u.s. forces named it the valley of death d.w. matawan infantry men who survived the fighting. great. fire. and returning fire. tracking down the enemy that was sergeant brandon no burns life for 15 months his unit's deployment was the subject of the claims 2010 documentary restrepo o'byrne returned to civilian life 11 years ago but sometimes he still

have a. now you've created 2 more terrorists in stead of the one right and that's you know ad infinitum right like that you can't keep can do that forever that that's what you know fighting this kind of wars after returning home from the conflict o'byrne battled for several years to overcome psychological problems and alcoholism with his life back on track he's now studying to become a high school english teacher and lives in a quiet neighborhood in wilmington north carolina he thinks the u.s. government should withdraw troops from afghanistan as quickly as possible. we haven't figured out in 18 years what to do with the taliban. and make them more peaceful or or defeat them now they're more possession of more land territory now so we haven't figured it out. we were lost.
