opened its borders to refugees 5 years later we take an in-depth look at what happened then and. what followed. and the consequences that women are still facing today. are topic on daily news. feel that scene of only a fad just won't go away but russia doesn't seem to care now nato has joined an ever growing list of international bodies lining up to get must give a good telling off for the poisoning of a prominent kremlin critic. but once again stoltenberg has finished wagging his finger what connect to actually do i'm phil. and this is the day.
10:31 pm
we have nothing to hide. serious question. statements. with a certain degree of skepticism. held accountable to just. anything apart from the artificial evidence we have already provided. also coming up one last journey of hope 5 years ago thousands of refugees left would have passed on foot for the german border. where. i hope to go to.
10:32 pm
welcome to the program we start with nato which is called on moscow to cooperate fully and i'm investigation into the poisoning of russian dissident annex a now found the military alliance held a special meeting in brussels to discuss the case today and next in the family who fell ill during the trip to sag bierria is currently and medically induced coma in a hospital in berlin germany says it has evidence that he was poisoned with the soviet era. nerve agent no the chalk nato secretary general yes shelton that describe the case is a serious breach of international law that demands an international response. made dollars agree that. serious questions it must answer the russian government must fully cooperate with the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons an impartial international investigation those responsible for this attack must be held accountable and break to justice. nature correspondent teri schultz
10:33 pm
joins us live from brussels welcome terry so what was nato as main message well phil it's still too early for anyone to point fingers with any credibility at who might have poisoned alexina valmiki so you can't say that russia is responsible for the poisoning but what you can say is that russia is responsible for the poison itself nover took as you mentioned is a soviet era nerve agent and it is a banned chemical substance via the o.p.c. w. the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons so russia should have already declared any stocks that have has of nova check and it is also responsible for securing any of those stocks and so that is what nato says russia must come clean on where is it's over took who has access to it and how could someone have gotten gotta know the supply of it to poison alexina vonnie there was a press conference after yet still to issued his statement what did you ask him
10:34 pm
well i passed on a question that i'm getting a lot on twitter and that is from the critics of nato saying anything at all they want to know why would the alliance have anything to say about a russian citizen being poisoned on russian territory so that's what i asked the secretary general. because this is a violation of international law on the international norms it's the use of chemical of that but it's a use of overunity chemical nerve agent which is violating probation over any use of chemical weapons and matters for nato and when we see that the opposition cultish and in russia is attacked. is tried to there's not as a nation of time talking against him of course it matters for everyone that believes in the rule of law democracy individual liberty as we do in nato. well the
10:35 pm
miso nato says there needs to be an investigation the kremlin says this was nothing to do with us what does nato do next well we have somewhat of a precedent phil and that is that the last time there was a highly pub's publicized use of an over took was in 20 seen in the u.k. as you may remember a former russian spy sergei screwball and his daughter and 2 other people were poisoned using this nerve agent and at that time the u.k. launched an investigation and and pinned it on 2 russian nationals so in that case the russian government was penalized nato kicked out 7 diplomats from the russian mission to nato and many countries also expelled russian diplomats in punishment for this 'd so that remains an option if the poisoning of electing of all me can be traced back to russian officials but it's way too early for that we've only just gotten the german results proving that it was not the chuck and so nato is hoping
10:36 pm
that the o.p.c. opens an investigation that russian kwok that russia cooperate but that's a lot of a lot of hypotheticals so we'll have to see how things play out from here but they wanted to send a strong message early on in this process. and teri schultz in brussels thank you. still to come donald trump and joe biden clashed on campaign messaging and will the u.s. election be decided on law and order or the economy we just have a president just doesn't see he doesn't feel that he doesn't understand he just doesn't care. and all this week here. on the 5th anniversary of a decision that would change the course of european history. september 4th 2050 thousands of refugees who'd been stuck in limbo in a station in budapest and set off for the german border but then it was a start of
10:37 pm
a new route to the heart of europe by the end of 2015 more than a 1000000 people had sought refuge in the e.u. with many making the long trek from. across greece and the balkan countries to the german border. so here's a look at the situation that confronted migrants on tank ariens. station back in 2015. and anger at the station. many of those. had fled war in violence in their homelands and made a dangerous sea crossing at the mercy of people smugglers. hungry. at times as many. here making do with makeshift camps and no aid from the government. but they did find helping hands among some citizens in the beginning.
10:38 pm
as they were friends. bring. some money. from a. hunger in. one of those helpers he spent months at collecting station distributing food and comfort wherever he could. his egyptian hungary and jewish heritage compelled him to go to the station and his sense of responsibility for his fellow man made him stay. it wasn't a job. it was something we had to do for people everywhere around the world. it's just something we had to do.
10:39 pm
on september 4th 2015 thousands of migrants and collecting station decided to forge their own path. taking the 1st steps on a journey that would bring a 1000000 migrants to germany. that was 5 years ago so how did you want to do and handling not what became a crisis. seaman speaks for the u.n. high commission for refugees he joins us from hungary and welcome to day doubly so we've had a good long time to look at the way you handle this that the migration crisis that began in 2015 if you're marking brussels homework for that year what school would you give it out of 10. first of all this is a thrilling go sit in in front of my bookshop and talk to you from my own home because exactly 5 years ago at this time. i was under 100 euro and what
10:40 pm
i was walking through going to reduce towards and around this time in my life the news came that the un garion prime minister weaker or obama and the german chancellor under america all agreed upon allowing the you know who'd use walking along the monterey to cross the borders and to go into germany so it happened 5 years ago exactly at this time of our lives and around one or one of them we dive was a scream and the bitter produce of her turn supportively under a north korean border as for as for europe i think at this stage this was probably the most important political development this agreement between the hungary and the german government at the time. it was important did they did you
10:41 pm
handle that's decision and everything else that followed well because what we saw was 101 stage closing its borders we saw various countries saying no we don't want to be asked we do want them how did the e.u. did. well i think if i can recall it correctly but most of the decisions were taken on the national levels on the level of the hunger and go among. young greek and of course term governments who are really very important parts as well as so. my by this time and be be friends the border of friends and only the south and borders of hungary the border of the sort of and the border gratiot over all the almost completely and. within 10 days from now we'll rebuild. any grosser you on the completion
10:42 pm
of the various european border what happened afterwards it's a different story because the read because her of the hunger games there are more there and later on one month later and with the closure of the hungary and croatian border the access. of asylum seekers to be on variant very ok so it was a mixed picture of me but we do need to move on migration policy is still a huge issue across europe voters tend to be divided with the theoretical idea of saving people from harm but against the practical idea of the same people moving into their communities so this is one of the many reasons why far right and nationalist parties saying such as surgeon support so what do you say to those voters beyond theoretical notions of doing the right thing to convince them they should allow thousands of desperate people from alien cultures wealth and don't speak their language or look like they have to come into their country and change
10:43 pm
their way of life. i think we are talking special me i'm talking about people who are forced to create their homes or to flee their country of their own countries because of war because of violence because there are lives and the lives of their we loved ones their family members would have been dangerous if they stayed so this is not their doesn't believe their country is this is this is they are forced to leave otherwise they would have been. they would have been that way so. if we understand there's a creation this is not only our obligation by the international law this is our very basic moral obligation to help them to give them access to our country and to ensure that they can continue their lives in safety and security we wish you well thank you so much for joining us the owner of seaman from the u.n. h.
10:44 pm
yeah thank you. for the u.s. election officially opens today with mail in voting getting underway in the state of north carolina with less than 2 months until election day president trump joe biden are ramping up their campaigns latest polls show the race has remained relatively stable over the last few weeks with biden holding a national lead of just over 7 percentage points but the race will ultimately be decided by a handful of swing states over the last week law and order has emerged as a central theme of the trump campaign which they say has boosted their momentum meanwhile joe biden is trying to blunt the president's continuing attacks. by these letters to appease the domestic terrorists my plan is to arrest them and prosecute and i will always defend law abiding citizens that's why the riders are voting for
10:45 pm
biden but none that justifies burning or anything else so regardless how angry you are if you lutie you burn you should be held accountable as someone who doesn't have a house period. so who is winning the the war of the narratives that's told to d.w. correspondent. joins us from washington well i think so donald trump seems to be getting old he's putting all these eggs in the law and order basket how much momentum is really giving him well that's right phil he's definitely sees this theme that central to his reelection campaign in recent weeks especially and we know the social justice protests have largely been peaceful but he's highlighting the images of violence and vandalism that's often not associated with the black lives matter movement and he's appealing to white suburban voters here with this theme that he is the man to put a stop to the public on rast and his campaign clearly feel certain that this single line of messaging will be enough to get that job done in november so how vulnerable
10:46 pm
is joe biden on law and order we have seen him come arms against a rising the losing of recent days. yeah i mean it might seem that way considering that the incumbent doll trump is definitely pushing this message and so the joe biden campaign is certainly looking at this and thinking ok perhaps we need to add up our messaging and so they've dropped about $45000000.00 into ads this week and as we heard joe biden say rioting is not protesting and he says he condemns the violence anywhere by anyone and perhaps he said that to differentiate himself from the president who has yet to condemn a 17 year old supporter of his who shot and killed 2 people in wisconsin and you know joe biden also perhaps has a more of a tougher task here a more complex one because he has to balance multiple messages the message that yes rioting is wrong but at the same time acknowledging that social injustice is a longstanding problem in this country but only one president talks about. what
10:47 pm
he will do about it if he's reelected as though this was not happening on his watch . that's right he's the president he's the man in the oval office and this is exactly the message that joe biden has been trying to drive home and he's saying you know on top of the fact that the president is doing very little he feels that the president is actually inciting violence with his inflammatory rhetoric trump for his part of course has been blaming democratic leaders in places like oregon and wisconsin instead so what we're seeing is the 2 cams trying to control become a sage and we have president trump who is actually going to joe biden responding to his law and order tones while joe biden would prefer to talk about the president's response to the pandemic and surprisingly president trump is optimistic good times just around the corner apparently in the hopefully rounding that. we're rounding that. vaccines are coming. you know that the job that the
10:48 pm
doctors everybody else we years ahead of schedule terms of really stick timelines we're really not expecting to see widespread sedation until the middle of next year . so big to have is a donald trump just telling people what he thinks they want to hear what does he know something the world health organization doesn't or we do know is that donald trump wants this pandemic behind him and so does everyone else bill but unfortunately the reality is that experts are saying there's unlikely to be a vaccine by election day or even by the end of this year as you heard from that expert from the w.h.o. we also have to remember that there is an international effort being led by the world health organization to develop manufacture and distribute a vaccine more than $170.00 countries are involved in that but the u.s. says they will not help lead this effort they're going to develop their own vaccine and we heard from joe biden earlier today where he asked you know he questions sort
10:49 pm
of the success of the administration will have here given how they sort of botched the process of the guard to testing. well the coronavirus the death toll and the projections keep getting worse destruction and denial donald trump's only options now unfortunately the numbers are very very dire fell more than 187000 americans are dead there are more than 6000000 cases we've got new projections today that say 410000 deaths could be possible by years and if mask usage wanes and if there's no further government response and yesterday when trump was speaking in pennsylvania he made fun of joe biden for wearing a mask when biden was asked about that today he said well you know i trust the scientists so there's that is definitely a political element to this pandemic unfortunately and on top of all of that millions of americans have lost their jobs there were new job numbers today as well and that looks a little bit positive and trump touted that saying you know one and a half 1000000 jobs have been recovered in august but it's just
10:50 pm
a drop in the bucket another issue that perhaps isn't getting a lot of attention right now unfortunately are the stimulus checks that were being sent out to americans to help alleviate the strain given the pandemic in the many people have lost their jobs those stimulus checks stopped coming in july and biden called on trying to reconvene congress right now so that they can lean in renegotiate that have that extended but as of right now american families are not getting the help that they need so let's let's hear from joe biden then talking about the economic growth for lots of this pandemic the president's chaotic chaotic mismanagement of the parent is still holding us back compared to other major industrial countries in europe and asia during the pandemic aren't employment rate is still more than double what other nations have only gone up by half why because the president has botched the covert response botched. so joe biden is
10:51 pm
convinced that the president's responsible but responsibility for the various elements of the u.s. response it folds to a complicated mix of federal state municipal and local authorities so does the rest of the country share the sense that the president doesn't have a grip are they holding him responsible well it certainly depends on who you ask for all the countries rather polarized on this trump supporters will of course say that is not the case it is not the president's fault whereas democratic and perhaps some independent voters feel differently but as you mentioned we're more than 6 months into this pandemic and there isn't a national strategy that's been put in place each state is managing their own situation which isn't ideal for containing a virus that doesn't see borders but this is certainly allowed donald trump to shift the blame to the governors when he needs to so that when he sees spikes in cases and particularly in other states led by democrats he can blame them but when there are dips he can certainly look to take the credit which is what he's been doing so the messaging he you know he looks for the positives and he only focuses
10:52 pm
on that and that's perhaps what he will continue to do to talk if you thank you for that because how the son in washington the pandemic is crazy one of america's worst job crises for a century companies are starting to rehire but not nearly fast enough for the millions of unemployed who have rent and bills to pay w stefan simons reports. thinks of himself as a lucky guy 35 year old stone cutter and resident of phoenix arizona just time and knew full time work after several months of unemployment was right around the beginning of the pandemic the hours went from 40 to 20 within 2 weeks i went from 20 down to you know almost 0 at that point i did have to file the unemployment way for that stuff to come through 1st time i ever applied for. unemployment payments from washington and from the state government kept him somewhat afloat but then he
10:53 pm
fell behind on this rent and that had consequences despite an arizona governor 6 acute if ordered to postpone evictions thomas was evicted his new home now but del rio motel where he now pays around $300.00 per week now i have it's going to be very hard to get a new apartment great for kinfolk president of an organization called arizona thomas case is just one of many he's dealing with every day to cope with 19 condemning puts people out of work then many can't pay rent anymore they get thrown out of their homes and on to the streets and that in return fuels the pandemic again it's a no win situation it's a lose lose situation there's there's no. proper. solution here until we get a handle on this virus and you know especially if you've got people out on the street you know conveying the virus from person to person to social group to social
10:54 pm
groups there's no one that's going to be safe safe is something to have brewer hasn't felt in months she says her husband chef were furloughed early on in the program again then got sick with covert she and her son were also hit by the by the summer was the worst. of all of us catching cold and now we're everything that could go wrong. julia has a rare neurologic condition called stiff person syndrome she can't work and receive social security and disability payments it pays the rent but that's it they are $53.00 left out of my social security disability after paying her rent and. you know crying trying to figure out which bills. are we going to have enough food left over my going to have to go to the food bank. julie is afraid things could
10:55 pm
even get worse for her and her family she has a message for washington and the 3 branches of government need to come together and make a legitimate plan for the people this is serious and they need to be able to come together on a good plan and right now. right now can't come soon enough here in the shadows of arizona's capitol building in downtown phoenix this tent city for the homeless is growing every day. simon's reporting that a force of. u.s. election coverage is right up until. the day today the conversation of course continues live on twitter. used. to feel don't forget to use a harsh time of the day that's being with us and have a good. good

11:03 pm
received no proof from berlin that no bellamy was poisoned. we listen to these lofty and pompous statements from our western colleagues with a certain amount of skepticism we will see what facts they provide for the behavior itself in the public sphere such a noxious and arrogant a man's in the tone that our western colleagues are using but i don't think they can provide anything other than fake evidence so far all of a valley is still in a coma in a barely hospital and faces a long and uncertain road to recovery the nature of poisoning means answers will be hard to come by nature and the european union have not yet decided how they will react as they try to untangle the issue of standing up for someone who was not attacked on their soil. now to lebanon which has been marking a month since a huge explosion that devastated the capital beirut. mourners and

11:09 pm
and mass arrests now the protests is a taking their message off the streets and into people's everyday lives and it's a weekday afternoon like any other the komorowski market that is until eric and his friends write i the song has become an unofficial national anthem and part of the soundtrack of these protests. the sharpest reaction is evil in coming. another day and a new location. the response from possible i was saying was was as the street protests grow with every passing week police tactics are changing to blocking roads to spit protesters in smaller groups and arresting them in ever greater numbers. but these measures just make alternative forms of protest even more important for eric and his friends. to the v.a. it but that's before the government is trying to demoralize us and we get what it
11:10 pm
was but we are stronger for it. if we wear them out with sheer numbers bit by bit we will get there which is. one thing you hear time and time again from protesters as if they've just had enough. police in the united states of shot dead or far left activists suspected of killing a trump supporter uncle rhino who is active in the anti fascists was killed when police attempt to arrest him then interview published the same day peer to admit shooting a trump support a joint clashes in the city of portland saturday. almost a week after the shooting in portland the hunt for the alleged killer ended here near olympia washington michael rhino was shot dead by police as he was leaving an apartment building getting into a car. there was a confrontation between the officers that were on scene and the subject the
11:11 pm
information we have at this time is that the subject was armed there was shots that were fired into the vehicle and they subject fled from the vehicle which time there was additional shots that were fired. this was last saturday shots fired in central portland filmed by a passer by earlier a caravan of trump supporters in pickup trucks rode through the city clashes broke out between the group and left wing protesters demonstrating against racial injustice the man who was shot and killed was 39 year old aaron danielson a supporter of the far right groups patriot prayer. friends of danielson said he was not a racist nor a radical the eyewitness who filmed the shooting said danielson had appeared to reach for a gun. and a bizarre turn of events the alleged shooter self declared anti fascist michael
11:12 pm
rhino appeared to admit to the killing in an interview with vice news published the day he himself was shot dead by police in it he said he acted in self defense. it was out there in washington. i wasn't going to do that. my friend and i'm sure i would have been killed because i was going to stand there something up in. portland has been the scene of escalating violence between right and left wing groups in the last few weeks following a sum of demonstrations against police brutality towards black americans now yet another politicized shooting fuels the flames of division in america. that line of support little messi has announced that he will stay at barcelona ending brigs of speculation about his future of the club he joined 19 years ago he had applied for
11:13 pm
a transfer but was told he would not be released from his contract now the argentinian has finally broken his silence. it had been all quiet on the messy front since he shocked the world in late august with his request to leave barcelona the argentinian superstar and the catalan giants have been inseparable for the best part of 2 decades now after both botched under spanish league dug in their heels messi has spoken ote. going to trial is murderous. i would never go to trial against the club i love the club that gave me everything that helped me ever since i got here with my life. but his announcement prompted a mixed reaction from a fan base previously united in operation. i think that his contract said that he couldn't leave and it is good that he didn't leave. but with all the
11:14 pm
mess he has created for barcelona to be honest it's not very good because he doesn't give the impression that he wants to play for the team. so it's good that he's staying. but it's not ideal but if. the best player is staying at barcelona it's always good news we never wanted him to leave and i don't think he wanted to leave either. those glued to their phones on the rambler would have seen the little attacker couldn't resist a pop at club president maria but to mayor who he said didn't keep his word that he could leave but back to mir will be pleased that the 700000000 year old asset hasn't been allowed to flow to the door for nothing and that the club has messi is unrivaled pulling power for at least another year. that's it you're up to date we'll have more world news for you at the top of the hour between now and then of

thanks for joining me u.s. unemployment has dropped from 10 to 8 percent but there's concern over the pace of recovery just under 1400000 positions were added in august have about 2 thirds of july figures the transfer jess that the u.s. economy may take longer to be banned and expected. job losses mounted faster in the us than anywhere else at the beginning of the pandemic they were also supposed to rebound quickly. that's the benefit of a flexible labor market where hiring and firing is easier compared to more regulated economies and often happens fast but the new job numbers give cause for concern. following massive job losses in april hiring picked up in may and june in a big way but then slowed in july as coronavirus infections began to rise and now it's slowed once again in august. the question now is when the labor market will

find those jobs again with the u.s. still struggling to control virus outbreaks. the new figures also add to the pressure on congress to extend federal benefits that expired in july a $600.00 weekly unemployment supplement was supposed to keep families afloat as the labor market recovered but a full recovery now looks like it could be years away. that's thing in our financial correspondent yes quite to a new york yes but these numbers into context for us. well i mean 1st of all a job growth so clearly is slowing in the past couple of months but job growth was a bit better than expected we got a lot of new jobs in the hospitality industry as you might see in the back of people are getting creative finn in new york and there is no indoor dining so basically business so moves to the streets all for new york or of brooklyn we also got you would jobson a retail but also

a temporary jobs more than 200004 the 22 senses so a jolt with those jobs won't last them for a very long and if you look at the broader broad with job picture about to 20000000 people even war are put on furlough meaning they are not officially unemployed but they're also don't make any money at this moment i'm so clearly there is still work that needs to be done to get this job market to where it was before the month of march onion small businesses in particular are really struggling right now what kind of support do they need. well i mean 1st of all you need to make it from here to there and even if we look at the labor market in general we are still far from a full capacity if you look at restaurants if you look at other businesses as well so the 1st stop is a step is to get

a so that although it's all small businesses will wife but at the end of the day what you really need is a confidence concert confidence by customers and to you would only get those when of a scene is ready and that might take some time even if the u.s. administration is talking about diversity and being ready in a couple of weeks so that's one step and then the big question also is now it's a very beautiful late summer day here in new york but what happens if the weather is turning worse and then also what happens if congress does not agree on new aid packages sent at the moment there still seems to be a huge disagreement between the 2 parties and that it will probably also not and after the november 3rd elections no matter who wins those so many factors here and cut it thanks so much and have a great weekend. and as late as economy is in the death of crisis the country's one finance oil industry accounting for the vast
