subconscious when i remember the infamous you. elsa baker who's blind was 8 when she arrived at auschwitz she was one of the 23000 sinti and roma people to portage here it isn't it for me to to be here among so many people who have suffered so blatantly perhaps even much more so than i. and. i. i think. if you. don't know. if i'm upset but in spite of the past anti semitism is on the rise again. in 2020 we hear the same lies the nazis used so effectively in their propaganda they said

jews have too much power jews control the economy and the media jews control governments jews control everything we hear this madness on line in the media and even within democratic governments these brave men and women know the cost of anti semitism they can't fake at. it already seems that too many are listening but i'm. 30 now from 2 w.'s political correspondents i mean young he was asked monday ceremonies in auschwitz monday was another day focusing on the survivors stories of the horrors of auschwitz all naked people driven in trucks into the gas chambers where sadistic camp guards setting their dogs on prisoners already half dead but also the hope of freedom kept alive by occasional even my needs are acts of

kindness this is the last time many of the elderly eyewitnesses will be able to attend a major commemoration the political leaders are aware of that and also the increasingly apparent anti semitism in many countries the desire to learn the lessons of the holocaust was palpable here as the director of the museum said even in our time governments are turning their backs on the ranger when refugees drowning in the mediterranean to change that he said is the responsibility that flows from these killing fields and in that sense the liberation of auschwitz continues even now. and you have spoken at length to survivors and local residents who risked their lives to help victims you can find these videos on our website d.w. dot com as well as on facebook twitter and instagram at t w news well u.s. president donald trump says he's got

a plan to solve the israeli palestinian conflict and he's ready to unveil it on tuesday but the plans already been rejected by palestinian authorities who say they weren't included in its creation trump welcomed israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu and his main political rival benny gantz to the white house to discuss the proposal. the jordan valley in the occupied west bank the area running along the jordan river bordering jordan is to teach equally important for both israelis and palestinians the fertile areas home to israeli settlements palestinian villages and many farms. at this israeli pepper farm you version is waiting to hear more about president trump's way forward. lots of things that we don't need anyone to lay out a peace plan having said that we trust president trump and prime minister netanyahu that they will strike a good deal. expectations are particularly high among israeli officials

that the tram plan could lead to the annexation of the jordan valley area that means it would officially become part of the state of israel as prime minister benjamin netanyahu promised during the last election campaign. i think it's a historic and dramatic moment for the state of israel. the adoption of israeli law in the jordan valley and the judge will give security personal security to the residents of the coastal plain and the people of israel. for decades israeli politicians have demanded that the jordan valley remain with israel as a security buffer as it eastern border with jordan today it is already controlled by israel as a result of the oslo peace accords 1993 this particular area makes up about a quarter of the west bank israeli say they cannot give up on the jordan valley for

reasons palestinians say there cannot be a palestinian state without the jordan valley. and the palestinian village of people are waiting to hear what the trump plan actually entail it's the leadership in ramallah of us not consulted because it has cut diplomatic relations with the trump ministration where the ticket. he doesn't have the right he owns his own country that he can give to israel to britain de france to germany but he doesn't have the right to just hand out land that isn't his it's not the property of his father that he can just hand out. skepticism also prevents among palestinians in east jerusalem the part of the city palestinians would like to see as their capital in a future state in 2017 trump recognized a ruthless as the capital of israel many palestinians have no hope that his plan will take their interests into account myself and not this deal brings fear it's

a humiliation because since 948 we've tried to establish our presence but we're just humiliated and we don't have any say in any decision making. to have the support of this deal of the century is being imposed on us anything that's imposed doesn't invite peace it invites war why because i as a human i asked for peace and you impose on me peace in your way so you are saying to me no the phrase i mean to let. people are counting down the time until they don't move about the term plan one thing is all but certain there is still cause for the tensions in the region. time to bring you up to date now with some of the other stories making news around the world china is now the say world's 2nd biggest weapons producing nation behind the united states that's according to a report by a swedish research institute which says 4 chinese companies ranked among the world's top 20 arms sellers. u.s.
