2:02 pm
and calls the criminal case politically motivated netanyahu is battling to stay in power off the september's elections produced no clear winner. the israeli prime minister remains defiant as he addresses the country following his indictment and it was. you have to be blind not to see that something bad is happening with the police and the prosecutors tonight we're witnessing an attempted coup with fulsomely cations and a tainted investigation. that investigation lasted years on thursday israel satori new general announced his decision to formally press charges. today when you get any general decides to indict and waxing prime minister to severe charges of corruption which is a difficult and sad day for the israeli public and for me personally.
2:03 pm
the cases against prime minister benjamin netanyahu are known as case 1010 ya and his family are suspected of receiving gifts from business colleagues and close friends case 2000 covers allegations that newton yahoo attempted to influence the publisher of a daily newspaper to gain more positive coverage the recommended charges in both cases fraud and breach of trust and case $4000.00 allegations of regulatory favors for israel's largest telecommunications company in exchange for positive media coverage the charges here fraud breach of trust and bribery news and yahoo has rejected all the accusations and says he will continue to lead the country he's immunity as prime minister means he won't be legally forced to resign but his political future hangs by a thread he has failed to form a government after 2 consecutive elections and he now faces
2:04 pm
a legal process that could drag on for years old as well through this now i'm joined here in the studio by middle east analyst shaun has done his welcomes you shani netanyahu israel's. serving prime minister can he hold on this time well he's definitely going to try. legally he still has a possibility to hold on to power but we've seen him challenge by his own party members already yesterday before the charges were announced so he's going to be the next 1000 days where there's a possibility to form a 3rd a 3rd chance to form a government that's where that's going to be crucial time we might be expecting a major political or a shake in the next week or so with some of his you know internal. voices within his party challenging him and then if something breaks down it's going to happen in next week or so i'd say and it's interesting to see that pivotal moment within his own party but unsurprisingly the person who wants to be in power opposition leader benny gantz has called for him to resign netanyahu says that he won't but there's
2:05 pm
a concern that perhaps netanyahu at least from dances side will use the power of his office to protect himself right have we seen any indications of that in the past so the pets are cynical you are you know in many ways people think this is what he's been doing for quite some time there's no down that now things have changed when it comes to how the public sees it and he cannot keep on going the way he has before he needs to be far more careful. legally he can still stay in power of course this is still needs to be determined and we can see the stick nation and the and the deadlock in israeli politics it's not looking good and he knows that he understands he's being his support is slowly eroded in the interest and he's not in the most it doesn't have a strong hand as he had just a couple months ago and that deadlock just how the israelis feel about they'd still don't have a stable government they could have to go to the polls again and now these corruption charges do you think that could sway them it will it might it might
2:06 pm
there's great fatigue people are just fed up people can't believe they're still witnessing this you know ongoing battle between politicians we've we've seen these allegations going back and forth and last week. everybody were gearing up towards that complains it was quite clear there was a very little honesty people see through that many of them you can see online on social media many of them were to sped up saying you know i'm i'm not working for the government the government should be working for me and this is not happening something's wrong and the system connects and you know use this he might just as well if we see a drop in the percentage in general percent those are just people participating in the election that might work in his favor well these are interesting to watch and. analyzing it for us thank you. here a guy goes to the polls on sunday to elect a new president along to the list awaits the next leader including the country's public security crisis the crime rate has hit historic highs with homicides rising
2:07 pm
by 46 percent last year now police are struggling with yvonne and so some people have resorted to taking his into their own hands it obviously called play has the story from montevideo surveillance cameras on every corner but it's not big brother who's watching it's desperate citizens trying to protect their businesses and property in montevideo spot to give a area 2 cars are stolen every day break ins and armed robbery have become a part of daily life in this upper middle class neighborhood fearing for the safety of his wife and daughter. didn't want to sit idly by and he wasn't the only one. there are some in the 100 families in the pocket of a neighborhood watch tonight we work with what's not groups and whistles that's how we alert each other. if we hear the whistle we immediately know one of our neighbors is asking for help. you know.
2:08 pm
reasons to ask for help abound. this little dry cleaners has been attacked so many times that its owner will only ever unlock the door for people she knows. my business has been broken into 6 times and once i was held up at gunpoint. by the way. i no matter how much you give them i never know if they're going to turn around and shoot she was they. say i'm getting therapy now to help me get over it because now i live in fear but i didn't used to be the case. fear has spread through but it gave a year like wildfire a collective anxiety that borders paranoia says a former member of the neighborhood watch. me i was only signed up for a couple of months because it turned out to be a collective psychosis
2:09 pm
a mass manipulation to go out and hunt suspects. even though i was always on edge wondering if i'd had a whistle or not it's amazing how easy it is to be absorbed by the stone nomic i felt ridiculous and i never felt protected. to hear. but a lot of people do feel safer being a part of the neighborhood watch with authorities unable to control the rising crime rates they find solace in community. lou not of those stops by to check on a shop owner who's been robbed 20 times already. happened so often i don't want to see him getting used to it because having to live with it is all. going to go see him and then something happens one of the usual suspects steps into the store and leon immediately texts his neighbors something he has come to find more helpful than calling the police up official me i probably called them 10 times
2:10 pm
before the other times i just not totally know it's what we do and get to work off . an attitude the neighbors of park give idea are hoping to see adopted by the new government for them to feel like they can let their guard down a lot needs to be cleaned up and fixed so wherever it takes the presidency on sunday will have to urgently get to work now the advance of wintry conditions in parts of europe is raising concerns over the conditions for many migrants who are trying to reach the european union and one acute case is in bosnia now there were the 8000 migrants from maine stranded most of them in the countries northwest of the hoping to cross the border into the you lie at neighboring croatia now this week fishel repeated their call for the closure of the food shack camp need be hatched to avoid the worsening of what is already a dog humanitarian situation respond often when that to get a 1st hand
2:11 pm
a brush. water is only delivered here once a day by tanker. the hygenic conditions are catastrophic since last summer some 600 migrants mostly from pakistan and afghanistan have settled and can vote shack from a rubbish dump in north western boss near. the local red cross is helping with basic necessities but for half a year now the local authorities have been bringing migrants here from the city of the hutch 8 kilometers away against the advice of the un and international aid organisations everyone who say that the most has been said already for 5 months just today it was announced that this has to be. a. neighboring creation just a few kilometers beyond these mountains micron's try to cross into the e.u. here many are presented and sent back by creation police soon temperatures are
2:12 pm
expected to drop winter is particularly severe in this mountainous part of bosnia as is becoming clear to the camp's residents. that's an appalling condition him people saying. despite the danger no one in other parts of boston wants to take these people in this is what aid workers believe to be one of the most dangerous migrant camps in europe at the moment doctors report cases of skate bees and other serious diseases but still local authorities don't want to close the camp they want to keep up pressure on other regions and the government in sarajevo to open a different collective center elsewhere in the country. for the last 2 years more and more refugees have reshaped one of the cities more than 5000 of them now live here in the north west and more arrive every day the mayor of the hutch is demanding a long term solution. the check camp must remain permanently open so
2:13 pm
of course we could send the migrants from elsewhere but the migrant crosses as a whole has not been solved if the authorities want to transfer them elsewhere we've got no problem with taking them to sarajevo or to slow us down and we cannot . go on the outskirts of the hutch the international organisation for migration runs a refugee camp for up to 2000 people in a form affect rebuilding but the local authorities are opposed to more migrants being accommodated here the un has been negotiating for months to open more refugee camps in the country it's not difficult to imagine what will happen if you have 2300 people more living in the streets when it gets cold these people be forced to find solutions and one of the solutions is going to probably buildings going to shopping malls going into abandoned houses maybe stealing food all the stop of negative coping. type of behavior will manifest itself people continue to
2:14 pm
arrive at what chuck with winter on its way without a viable solution for the residents of the camp boss news migration crisis continues to escalate. german chancellor i'm going to backhoes the christian democratic union has begun a 2 day party conference in leipzig officially the question of party leadership well it's not on the agenda but it is still expected to play a role since machall announced last year that she would not run as chancellor again there has been because trouble within the party on top of that the conservatives are still under pressure from side to maintain their position as the dominant party in germany politics. or the cd use leader and it can't count has been addressing party members now amid doubts over her need a ship she challenged her critics to decide whether she should be the one to continue leading the party take a listen. when you hear them mine insight says if you feel that the kind of germany
2:15 pm
that i have outlined today is not the kind of germany that you are looking if you feel that the road that i want to go down is not the road that you want to follow then let us talk about that today and let us that ended today here and now today. before in and for and of in your mind if you feel that this is the kind of germany one that we should jointly follow this road if you feel the same desire to take responsibility and to shape things then let us roll up our sleeves here and now today let's get going when she gets to the. unfun. and listening to that statement was our chief political editor who was at the c.d.u. party conference for us in leipsic we had that was quite a statement there from cal about how serious washy.
2:16 pm
she was very serious after all she's faced weeks of internal party criticism and the whole party conference here is still waiting to hear from her potential challenger it seems she beat one year ago to become the party leader and now there was almost a kind of a sigh in the room when she delivered that essential speak up or shut up message and called on party unity but not requesting you know or asking it as a favor but really confronting the issue which has been looming in this room after that she received some 7 minutes of standing ovation so that in itself a clear message that the party certainly the delegates here don't really want to see the kind of infighting that is torn apart already the other big tent party just social democrats will speak up or shut up is certainly
2:17 pm
a very good way to put it in light of that do we expect that friedrichs merits could come forward for example as a contender to replace her that he'd be a dead set or all that other contenders if it came to that. there won't come to that definite won't be a vote here that would be a very dramatic turn of events i think the figures to be would appear in the room for them and for the mets himself just days before this party conference said that this showdown simply was not going to happen but after having been beaten one year ago he still sees himself as the one who should be put up as chancellor candidates by the party technically elections are 2 years away but the government in germany isn't that terribly stable and the big question now is whether he will once again try and position himself or whether we will hear some kind of pledge of unity and him see him stress more that he will support an increase. or rather than that he
2:18 pm
would be the better choice that's the big question still looming in the room behind me here and talking about the position of chancellorship chancellor merkel she delivered a short speech but it seems that she is taking a back seat is she trying to give can empower the room she seems to need in that position of party leadership. exactly i mean what we've seen over this past year is creating space on a good outcome can buy one could almost say almost a withdrawal from german domestic politics clearly she sees herself as somebody who wants to build a legacy a european legacy and with germany due to hold the e.u. presidency at the end of 2020 the 2nd half of the year that's something she clearly has her eyes on and that's also why we see her being such a good sport when it couldn't come callen by lines out policy from within the
2:19 pm
government as defense minister which is clearly already aiming at the time passed on the on going to mark or when she wants to see germany engage more on the international scene also militarily our chief political editor michel a cure for the c.d.u. party conference in light sic great to have your analysis thanks. germany's relations with turkey are facing another stress test following turkey's arrest of a lawyer who works for the german embassy there now he's accused of spying and german officials are concerned he had sensitive documents on turkish citizens seeking asylum in germany. this turkish kurd has applied for political asylum in germany but the information that he gave during the asylum process was leaked to authorities in ankara because he's worried what will happen to his family his identity will remain hidden he told us anything could happen to them they could
2:20 pm
take his family into custody or throw them in jail anything his documents as well as those from other asylum seekers were sent to a turkish lawyer the german foreign office asked him to check the asylum seekers' information then 2 months ago the lawyer was arrested on his way to the german embassy in ankara according to german media outlets the turkish public prosecutor is accusing him of spying for germany the german foreign office says the reason given for detaining the lawyer was not legally comprehensible and the detained lawyer was just filling internationally customary duties but as a result of his arrest up to 280 files with sensitive data may have fallen into the hands of turkish authorities the refugee council is critical surprised in these cases held before an office and in particular how be embassies work but have failed to ensure that the starter doesn't fall into the hands of a 3rd party. the majority of those affected are kurdish activists and
2:21 pm
supporters of the green movement which ankara blames for the 2016 failed military coup. now how do you chance for problematic plastic waste into a floating paradise when they start up in the ivory coast has turned a pressing environmental problem into a business opportunity proving that one person's trash is another's treasure. a treasure island but not as you know it this floating paradise parks not with gold plastic. 700000 pieces of these bottles are bringing buoyancy with it the creation of this french entrepreneur who wanted a way to turn waste into one of the. i was studying here and people from the merino were all on the lagoons edge and so that's how i discovered the lagoon and its advantages and its disadvantages such as
2:22 pm
the pollution. and so little by little my idea of building a travel boat turned into how to build a system a village corner by using the pollution in the lagoon namely the drums from that. the resulting entertainment resorts has become a draw for curious locals until just. for $25.00 guests can spend a day on the island dancing eating drinking swimming and even sleeping. that for many. of them it's really innovative ecologically it was something that was really worth thinking about and it's the place to be sometimes because it proves that nothing is wasted nothing gained everything can be preserved so they did something really innovative and i had to come and see for myself them because that this is different. it's
2:23 pm
a world away from the sea of plastic that surrounds it becker and his team do what they can to clean up the shores here and hopes his idea will encourage others to recycle it. he admits though his efforts alone are just a drop in the a good. while some people live to walk others they have to play even if that calling comes a little later in life one example a canine in the russian capital moscow who discovered a new passion that helps pay the bills and only show in reports from the dance floor now. zarina his love for music is infectious she's been deejaying for almost 4 years and now performs around once a month at events and clubs in the russian capital playing drum and bass house and electra. is 57 years old and is originally from was back to stop but when she plays age doesn't matter and neither does nationality. the thing i
2:24 pm
like the most is when everyone dances i even dance with them myself. zarina came to moscow from summer concert 20 years ago to earn money for her family back home now she cleans offices in the city center including at this school when she heard the electronic music people were playing here she loved it and decided to take lessons as well. she still practices at the school after cleaning before the other students arrive. music helps me i work a lot it can be tiring when i come here i forget everything it's all about the music i can play for 5 or 6 hours straight music gives me strength and he puts me in a good mood. so
2:25 pm
marina doesn't speak english or read latin letters so she memorizes the cover art for tracks when she wants to use them and play lists. of the arena's teacher at the school suggest songs he thinks she might like he says arena is an important member of the school's close knit community and she's an inspiration for a new students. unfortunately people often think that someone who came from a different country who's a better older who has a different nationality might not be able to learn how to do which would be she sure everyone that it works and that anything is possible because. it's. serene as one of several 1000000 migrants in russia central asian immigrants often face discrimination in the country but serena says she's never had problems. when a person is heartfelt when a person talks to everyone is friends with everyone they are taken in by people as
2:26 pm
their own that's what i think i think it depends on the person. sarina always ends her act by dancing with her audience to pop music in a traditional national costume at holmes arena as a teacher and someday she hopes to start her own d.j. school back and expect to keep spreading the joy of. you're watching the news coming up next news asia beyond kong activist who says he was tortured by chinese police for taking part in pro-democracy protests. plus a pacific archipelago that could back on the wealthiest nation if people vote for it to a referendum. amnesty called briquettes that was next for my concert but instead close to.
