forget the coast. guard they will not succeed in defining not succeed in taking people off the streets because we're talking trash. taking the stand. that matters to me. hello and welcome to focus on europe with me liz show europe is fighting the cold in 1000 pandemic and while the focus has been on preparing for a possible 2nd wave of infections little attention is being paid to the rising number of migrants arriving in southern europe from africa. most of them start

their journey across the sea and from to news yet thousands have already crossed the mediterranean on rubber boats to italy where authorities are warning that the situation could get out of hand. those who make it to italy are desperate to find ways to earn money many end up as farm workers on tomato or lemon plantations but they have no rights and for years they've been toiling away for countless hours and for a minimum pay these workers are called the invisibles and by now and there are hundreds of thousands of them we send same and you alone was introduced to improve their lives but the law is having little effect as are italy correspondent found out he traveled to the southern part of the country to the region of the. known as italy's a breadbasket there he met some of the migrants. somewhere in the middle of nowhere among the vast wheat fields of southern italy we meet them on a chain who found shade under the pilots the 30 year old from booking a fossil is

a harvest worker without a residence permit and with limited prospects their own little 12th night in living in it only for 11 years. the authorities have only ever issued me papers valid for 6 months. this was supposed to end in 2011 because it wasn't until 2016 that i was able to apply for a residence permit again and once more for only 6 months and it is precisely because i don't have a work contract. it's the same story for everyone here even those who don't want to be found they have settled down and discarded sofas and mattress camps in the open air with outright without status officially this should have changed since june 1st it's now he has had a new all that is supposed to ground harvest workers legal residents in the country will no need to learn and i know a farmer here he might be able to hire me with a real contract then the new law would apply to me too. many

migrants are hopeful hundreds of thousands like him harvest asparagus in the spring tomatoes in the summer and oranges in the winter in italian fields migrants especially from africa are exposed exploited and defenseless. doctors and the attorney in government who wanted to stop this irresponsible minister who was once an unskilled agricultural worker her self was visibly moved as she announced the change for limits you're on with us no more think of these invisible aquaculture the farm workers will be minimal visible in the future may not even be seen. but the nor does not reach the invisible ones in the fields says i took a hold of a lot. the lawyer is a voluntary legal adviser to many migrants he fights ago. senseless regulations that make legal work and residency almost impossible for day laborers it was all got a lot through the labels police department has to intervene and give the ok all of

these procedures that are completely hardness. or to man a it's a vicious circle the bureaucratic obstacles are complicated and incomprehensible even for legal experts. this is your storage typical obstacle course to discourage applicants if. they have to provide evidence of their place of residence on financial security how they provide for themselves and their regular work contracts at the same time. but even one of these requirements is missing the residence permit will not be extended to social cost not dream on is hope of finally being able to legally work and live in italy is sinking. but i never had the time to learn a new trade properly so this whole time i've had to fight to get by. on top of this there is now crime the employment contracts required by the new law are being sold

on an extortion me black market. on the low also fights for migrants rights but he's a farmer as well so he knows what some of his colleagues do or new boat. there are some who charge between $4.50 euros for a work contract. backbreaking some for day labor and but the politicians in southern italy are doing little to protect themselves from black market trade for work and residence permits this frustrates. he would love to hire migrant workers with temporary contracts through an official employment agency he says this is the only way to put a stop to illegal activities and mafia organized middlemen in the harvest industry . they see to it day laborers earn even less. trying to save. for their

6 or 7 euro early wage goes to those who brokered the day job level. and those he lives with on deeply disappointed they are stuck between the fields and run from harvest to harvest like nomads while being exploited the hope for a humane life and work in italy is sinking once more it's a summer in europe and a low most of us don't mind a bit of fun shine the heat records are a growing concern that only out at the russian border with finland is one of the places that is facing an increased threat of wildfires because of the high temperatures and lack of rain climate experts are alarmed and many russians who are spending their vacation in the region are also worried like a lame volunteers like a mighty out. our own patrol to make sure that's no major fires break out.

early morning emergency. there's a fire one of the many islands of lake the dog north western russia. this team of volunteer force protectors is trying to get there as fast as possible. but. some tories called us at 7 o'clock they told us that most had caught fire on the surface if. they can put it out themselves they asked us to come and take. the tourists meet the volunteers at the shore. a small room fire appears harmless but it can quickly turn into a major fire and spread. looked at the shock much it looks as if someone started to come follow your head but didn't put it down properly. before the body it seems the wind the cost of spread and setting fire to the mosque which. fortunately these

holidaymakers knew what number to call them real estate which a team arrives in time to put up a small fire. just a few days ago the volunteers almost arrived too late to put out a fire that spread on a neighboring island it took hours to extinguish the flames. and about 20 of the force protection volunteers come for this company the lake every summer they're all from the region which i love summer students others have taken time off from their jobs well to go. i don't think i could live without lake logica. it's just 1st for me it's the most wonderful place in the well doing it so much gracie was so mature just through his plans and give. them

the keys and is a mathematician by profession. he prefers his volunteer work over his paid job at the computer but i mean that's the come on who will do it if we don't know. this is a magnificent place. we came here about 15 years ago managed by canoe it 1st and now it's burning here so much on the bike that it's terrible. you come back actual place that you've been visiting for years and it's the earth down at that. it will take years to reforest all of this. that's from the west on our roads and later every day the volunteers go up and down the coast sometimes up to 70 kilometers away to check for fires. on the. lake the dog is the 2nd largest lake in russia i survive. it's in the corral you have a region the borders finland it's a unique national park and it's at risk of being completely destroyed. this year

many russians are spending the holidays at home because of the cold are going to condemn it every come far increases the danger of a major forest fire. him which radio is that where it would be great if everything worked perfectly here will you if there were enough forest protected and a functioning fine of apartments there's the problem i wish i'd been there then we would only have to help out in the bahamas i'd stand we doing all the work for the national park authorities with movements and i know but. the volunteers have been doing this work every summer for years and even paid for their own equipment helps by support from donors and sponsors. this year there are more fires than usual because it's been so hot and dry a clear sign of climate change.

soon after coming back to the camp and that measures he gets called in and stress levels rise again more money. but it turns out that it was a false alarm. that he is just the doctor thought it was 3 out of 4 emergency calls turned out to be just smoke or campfire your. thank you but if you said all that we always try to find out what's happening as fast as the but i get it much more in the ways that the national the hotter the summers become the more fires there are going to be up in store for we could wish for. were feverish. meanwhile authorities if you have to support these efforts continue to work for free and tears do their best to put out as many fires as they can to protect their home region. this amazing view of picturesque mountains and a lake is what you get when you visit the village of hud starts in austria some

hail it as the most beautiful religion in the whole country each year thousands of visitors come here some spend a few days and others just enough time to a snap a selfie for their instagram but since the corona crisis things have become more quiet and several villages are realizing they like a comma so they're thinking about what the new normal could look like and once the pandemic is over. in her austria many locals worried no tourists would come this year to admire the mountains the lake and the quite village because of corona and know tourism would also mean no income but the worries are over. visitors are here and abundance. which is good for hotels and also for carlina helps beggars both rental business. but it's a different mix of tourists have a moment then you think on t.v.

we don't have all nationalities here because of the flight problems but we've got austrian germans basically europeans before the pandemic the village through many international tourists and day trippers. the alpine setting is popular on instagram last year over 21000 turbos has brought around a 1000000 visitors to the village with just 760 inhabitants. starts near doesn't miss the era of over tourism. if you have these you could include in the world what if i had greeks with a guide carrying a flag and around 2000 people wearing had sex tape so it was very loud regularly that's how people it was too much for some locals it would stand for $300.00 because of war and. then suddenly in spring austria had to go into lockdown because of covert 19. grew quiet restaurants were empty and there wasn't

any money coming in and. the local population discovered something else. too it didn't seem to this was well thought out it wasn't very pleasant anymore because of the mass tourism that so i think it's right that during these 2 or 3 months of our start was just for us locals and in terms of life quality that was great that their lives experience it as it once was. now its main. the european visitors and how start and some of them what kind of come before baby obviously doesn't work you knew that there were fewer foreign tourists here now because of cove in 1004 we have heard about the place in new that it would be quieter thomas says that's why we came this was called i always wanted to with the place and yeah now it's great because you know there is. but what about the future actually returning to preterism days isn't an option the municipality the

pens an income from tourism to subsidize services such as school meals and care for the elderly. locals value tourism but there is a question of what kind of tourism. is because. i think that we should cut mass tourism down by half and double quality tourism we're visitors stay for longer but that would be a good mix to give me from. car a little girl has a different view. is proclaimed that i need. to live even if the hotels want high quality tourists staying here for longer but i just think that kind of long term a tourism it's fashionable at the moment it's not safe and before the pandemic. house starts as currently developing a new system to deal with the turbos is the number of which is expected to increase again in the future they will have to register in advance and stay longer.

it's not clear whether this will impact the amount and form of tourism but the mayor doesn't want to go further. i think that when we start getting more international visitors coming to see our cultural heritage again the others will start coming. what we don't want to do is to tell some people to come and others not to because we don't want them here that's not where we are so it's if you look at the village would rather not repeat come what felt like an old. an air exhibit for masses of day trippers but avoiding dust in the future would require a balancing act for hotshot smear on its citizens. this man sat on the spanish throne for nearly 40 years and now the former king juan carlos has not only left the royal palace but also the country is probably not what he had imagined for his retirement a life in exile investigations are underway one carlos is accused of money

laundering and corruption these latest scandals have thrust the royal family into a deep crisis many spaniards like marja are now calling for an end to the monarchy . this fanfare is meant to help the end of the spanish monarchy. a democracy with a king is like a horse pulled by oxen says the sign at a protest in madrid. marta is one of the demonstrators here who has had enough of spain's royal family i mean to say yes you know you have always been reasons to demonstrate against the crown and i want to keep that right now with the right even then everything i found that the money i'm the kind of dollars. corruption affairs and moral bankruptcy for years spain's former king juan carlos made headlines for all the wrong reasons he abdicated in 24 team and this week you have spain it's been suggested his own son king philippe pushed him to leave the country

where he is under investigation by the public prosecutor tapes leaked to the media are said to contain talk of huge bribes and it is very good overbooking juan carlos custom everything he says especially in the gulf states the united arab emirates saudi arabia he accepted gifts and donations and used the network to frontman let's hide the money. marta from the protest is a nurse so she's under a lot of stress due to the corona pandemic yet she only earns enough for a room in a shared flat. i meant that boy i can't afford anything else even a studio with a little kitchen and a date that is too expensive so i have to live in shared accommodation. marcus says the royal family has the nothing to support or comfort people during the corona crisis. she felt no empathy from them during spain strict lockdown.

like as i say you know if we didn't hear anything from the palace. they were in that $100.00 square not to rooms during the lockdown so of course they've no idea how ordinary people feel. spain need a monarch more and more people here are saying no. on the internet in particular they're rallying support for online petitions videos and songs. are next up on her own a child farewell to the crown some polls say the majority of spaniards now want their country to become a republic though experts remain skeptical it's not was distorted like yes there's a lot of discontent most of those parts are really us attain a trend we need more data more polls conducted over a longer period of time. to find committed royalists we went to the countryside and spoke to older spaniards like on how they nest carlos.

she lives in a village outside the capital madrid. she still has vivid memories of the attempted coup of 1901. and a foreign hoess televised address in which she bravely defended spain's democracy i don't play the king's i have counties for me that was likely given to him. down again and i said dear god thank you for the hens this person for just a bit done this to bring the. well she regrets the recent scandals she still supports the spanish royal house including king philippe. and stops the plans to trade him in for a head of state elected by the people. for whom this is going to unity young folks demanding this haven't a clue if they think they invented politics and life in general not as if we haven't left before now i think it must be done to. a new spanish republic still looks to be a long way off the hurdles to changing the constitution are high and

a referendum would need to be held and unlike his coalition partner demos prime minister pedro sanchez refuses to call one. still opponents of the monarchy plan to keep on demonstrating for royalty free spain. scientists have been trying to uncover the secrets to a long and healthy life for a century in a matter of lifestyle do we need to follow a certain diets well one answer to the secret of a long life may be found on the greek island of we send our report a bear and my impression is that reaching an old age may have to do with enjoying life to the fullest. here in a sea of turquoise lines the idea of a career. its famous for its namesake icarus from greek mythology and for the adenike at least it's been ages. but these days it's mainly
