if earth for you starts feb 11th on t w. this is ditto 1000000000 years alive from berlin russia expels diplomats from germany sweden and poland as tensions rise over the jailing of kremlin critic alexina vonnie visiting moscow as mr millet no volleys put on trial again the european union's foreign affairs chief says relations with russia are at a low point also coming up a court in turkey again refuses an appeal to release prominent philanthropist. will
6:01 am
get the latest from our correspondent in istanbul. i'm told me a lot of thank you for joining us germany has summoned the russian ambassador over the kremlin's expulsion of swedish polish and german diplomats russia accuses them of participating in illegal protests against the jailing of opposition figure alexina vonnie the kremlin made the announcement while the european union's top diplomat just up but i'll was in moscow he described the blocks ties with russia as being under severe strain. it was supposed to be a day to mend strained ties between the european union and russia but when 3 diplomats from sweden poland and germany were expelled from russia. right evening
6:02 am
the message was clear and so was the response. we consider these expulsions unjustified and we believe this to be yet another expression of what we're seeing in russia it is far from the realms of the rule of law. in. russia alleges the diplomats had participated a print of on the rallies but when insisted that staying informed about ongoing issues is simply part of a diplomat studious that they had started with the 1st just liberal the e.u.'s foreign policy chief was the block's 1st envoy to visit russia since 2017 is meeting with russian foreign minister sergey lavrov aims to keep lines of communication between brussels and moscow open but tensions continue over the imprisonment of criminal credico alexei navalny. going to charge with arrest and sentencing. the rest of us with the most
6:03 am
rigorous. and respect i have to convey to minister lavrov our deep concern and great rated i will be able to release on to launch an investigation. by joining. the e.u. had put additional sanctions on hold and while lover of stressed that russia wanted to improve relations he did not mince words. we have got used to the fact as i have already mentioned that the e.u. more and more often use this one sided restrictions which are not based on any legitimacy at this stage we have to assume that the e.u. is an unreliable partner but you're calling him you're not done with that throughout the visit was barely over when the diplomats were expelled and despite all efforts to improve communication some actions speak louder than words. so how will the european union respond to the expulsions of some of us diplomats from
6:04 am
russia earlier we put that question to bruno letter a senior fellow at the german marshall fund. well i think 1st of all we need to understand that the events today were not a coincidence this is really russia showing its muscle telling the look what we can do we can expel your diplomats of certain you member states even though the top foreign affairs chief of the e.u. is with doesn't town actually trying to appease relations so this was really poor ring on oil on fire and let's be frank a significant diplomatic provoke ation from russia to europe so i think there's 2 options for responses the countries to whom the diplomats belong germany poland sweden could these sites for instance to some of the ambassador but also decide to for instance expel russian diplomats from their own territory this this could be one option at the national level i think the author of shouldn't would be a e.u. wide response from the european union and then of course we talk about sanctions.
6:05 am
sanctions of course are complex issues only last month where you foreign affairs ministers were sitting down in brussels around the same issue they failed to agree on imposing new sanctions on russia there's no unity in the e.u. around this so that window of a portion of the last the next the fortunately might be perhaps next month there will be an e.u. summit in brussels for heads of state and governments and there of course leaders could examine the possibility to introduce new sanctions having said that though the summit as only next month which means as a diplomatic relation is pretty late it's pretty slow. a court in turkey has again rejected an appeal for the release of a prominent businessman and philanthropist. has been in prison for more than 3 years accused of espionage and attempting to overthrow the government following a failed coup in turkey and 2016 human rights groups have denounced the proceedings
6:06 am

6:07 am
accused kabul of both supporting left-wing terrorism and plotting an islamist coup . initially the public prosecutor accused of having bankrolled the 2013 gezi park protests but no evidence was ever presented to back this up even so the turkish president everyone is convinced that kabul is guilty. well through their foreign forces seeking to spark unrest in other countries. the man who acted on behalf of these people in turkey. is now behind bars. couple who was arrested in 2017 and held for nearly 1200 days in this prison just outside of. the european court of human rights demanded couple his release and when a turkish court complied his wife i should headed for the jail to collect him but within hours authorities issued a new warrant for his arrest. you stop believing in justice when you experience
6:08 am
something like that. there's no justified reason to keep the locked up in jail not a single reason. but they can fabricate one at any moment you know. how does the more. supporters view him as a cultural philanthropist to forge understanding between peoples the turkish authorities however is just a dangerous agitator. let's take a look now at some of the stories making headlines around the world. in chile demonstrators have clashed with police jury and the latest round of anti-government protests hundreds took to the streets of santiago on friday where they were met with tear gas and water cannon the protests have been going on for more than a year demonstrators are angry about inequality and want social reforms. the u.s. air force will review security procedures after an intruder and the base that houses

6:19 am
capital women usually keep having children until they give birth to at least one son and girls sometimes are given 1st names like enough names that show they were on wanted. if they didn't give birth to a boy women feel somehow inadequate even before they start their own families women see the way their parents treat their brothers and how they react to the birth of a son that makes women feel that it's absolutely necessary for them to have a son of their own. a mother who soup of our knows that pressure all too well she accepts the 10 years with her husband as part of her fate as what god gave her but she says her family is much happier without him. i don't want my daughters to go through what i went through i want them to have a happier life. says she loves all her children equally
6:20 am
a good education and most importantly a happy family that's what she hopes for for her son and her daughters. in germany the number of coronavirus cases is slowly declining but some regions are still so inundated with new debts that local trees have become completely and. there should be a moment of prayer but there's no time for that there are simply too many coffins too many bodies arriving at the crematorium in saxony. and some days there are more bodies than we can actually cremate on a single day and this is a trend us for our employees also because there's no end in sight.
6:21 am
we are standing in the morning hall of our crematorium. it usually accommodates 90 people for the funeral services. unfortunately we had to convert the hall into a storage space because we could no longer keep up with the deaths. it's a difficult situation for us. because relatives can usually say goodbye to their loved ones here. but at the moment that's not possible because the move leaves. no room for a funeral service not all of the coffins represent deaths from the coronavirus but many of them are marked so. these people had to end their lives without a final hug from their loved ones luke spanish cares for the bereaved he is a pastor and do about. family sometimes only realize how dangerous the coronavirus
6:22 am
can be once they've lost a loved one to it. when does your liberal me and i have contact with families who have lost a relative because of covert 19 to scorn they are in a state of shock and reconsidering things this 1st phase of mourning the so-called shock phase lasts longer for them because something inexplicable something in comprehensible has been added namely this pandemic plan to me. the pandemic is far from over. get a hold monster is worried about the future. that and also can the assuming that the number of infections remains high it follows that the number of deaths will to refer to these and the 2 and so on and that means we won't see any relief here until mid february at the earliest so the carnage follows him. it is
6:23 am
a winter of mourning and as it is in many places in the world during the pandemic. if you scan facts initiative aimed to provide for a conference with 3 i think 90 vaccinations and one door says one of them will be announced. a glimmer of hope in the battle against the pandemic in honduras in february the country shed jewel to receive its 1st shipment of vaccines against cove at 19 the initial shots will go to frontline workers on the elderly over $3600.00 people are known to have died after contracting the corona virus in honduras the deputy health minister says it's unfortunate there is no international law to regulate the distribution of covert vaccines like the one made by biotech pfizer. by he says
6:24 am
the rich countries have practically monopolize the vaccine and are denying developing countries access to more vaccine doses that have access so a lot when i see where the hunger in health ministry says some 4000000 doses are needed to immunize 20 percent of the population it's unclear whether one jurist will meet the target this year alongside the doses acquired through the kovacs initiative of the governments also purchasing vaccines directly from manufacturers . but global supplies are limited and expense of. it's not more expensive the lamb in the sea we have to beg internationally why because some jurist as a poor country has already used the money for other things. so we don't have money to buy vaccines from buy on tech pfizer but are all there are several $100.00
6:25 am
people will get there for you sort of based on current orders placed by the government the one juror in medical association estimates that far less than 20 percent of the population will be inoculated this year and many hundreds believe the government should shoulder part of the blame. we push our trusting god above all and hope for positive results despite the negative expectations of some patients. but we are meant to think you know if the government to talk to the faster we would have had vaccines here long ago. didn't have to know when they were meant to never. were lacking good management the problem isn't a lack of effect a vaccine despite the vaccine skeptics it's simply simply what i personally know when i get it in about. the vaccines can't come soon enough new infections and dad

screws sharply in january in honduras. one father in the u.k. which they're not trying to keep his disabled son engaged knocked down now artists from all over the world are participating. in these works of art are the result of a joint production between international artists and no one from southern england and his father. oh no one is epileptic suffers from cerebral palsy and cannot speak you know now but with the help of his father the 12 year old becomes background bob. he chooses the colors and paints the backgrounds artists complete the pictures. he idea for the project came about lastly doing
6:27 am
lockdown as a way to keep you know what occupied. we were actually coverage our smoke or don't we just documenting it york are not. just your friends are not all going to push out just as a bit of the city will cooperate with you. and by the end of the 1st day i think august already involved and it just grew from there. the backgrounds are sent by post and competed by artists from all over the world who found out about it through social media works in spite they know i have already returned from spain astray and columbia the boy who usually only gets letters from his doctors is delighted with all the mail is absolutely not being background always become his new name i would consider theory react when he's called back around although he really really loves it he loves all of the attention. at an. submission 250 of no was works
6:28 am
are on display the project is so popular that both father and son can hardly keep up with the number of backgrounds being produced a book has also come out and the works are set to be auctioned seeing the money will go to the health centers where no $1.00 is treated and the project has brought both father and son even closer together. and i give it to you and i get more times out you know we make a lot mass which we were getting extra i don't. think. i actually haven't got any close now rather i can go i don't don't have to dream dream big all the time zones on just dream small and mostly small things. but all it took was a father's love and the image a nation of a group of artists to get wings to a boy from england in.
6:29 am
the seventy's 7 percent. down by calling china's present and powerful class colonialism pure and simple in street debate we asked why is it still a thing in africa and who is to blame the order was like stealing from the uk i think an all new millennium the legs on somebody having the in-depth look at the 77 percent. talking. to you car makers. do you think you can make a car out of trash. just look at our look out. it's fully electric super efficient sustainable road where they. don't waste cars. congress cards from students at the university of idaho even. read.
6:30 am
the 60 minutes w. . we've got some hot tips for your bucket list. the magic on a trip to. the top for families. and some great cultural memorials to boot. d.w. trouble free go. hello guys welcome to your favorite youth program the 77 percent this is the platform for africa's young my jury duty i got julia foster in your seat belt and ride with us. more than 60 years ago many african countries gained in the benz for me would be an colonizes
6:31 am
but how independent and why does it even matter to us the young generation now will be digging deeper into that question on the show but yes what's coming up. are reports that he did come out he talks to young kenyans about we'll call it not a. property of all this and drops a few lines on what it means to be african. immigrant in the street artists can go back to. his seat and there's a control. now east africa has been ramping up efforts to expose its citizens to chinese culture particularly their language in kenya for example monitoring is offered as the selective language in schools in uganda it is now a composite a subject in some schools so is this exchange of cultures or was there much more to it. 25 years old and dramatic is not afraid to get his hands dirty. graduated in december he's been helping out on the family farm and like many young
6:32 am
cancer recently entered the job market looking foolish. but andrew has an ip sleeve he speaks mandarin this decision came as more chinese contractors flooded kenya to build its roots and he thought learning the language might give him an edge an experience that would be revealing my name is andrew in english so the 2 new to me so that i used to go by even a school in class grams used to be used and that low. over the years there's been a steady trickle of chinese cultural and language centers open in kenya many like andrew school offers scholarships and in some cases high achieving students are even sent to china for competitions but the content of andrew's classes made it apparent his instructor was teaching more than a language she was really started to kick started by showing us teaching us about chinese history chinese festivals chinese points and so for instance if you try to
6:33 am
do french you might not need to learn all those things pertaining in street culture and we just need to learn how to communicate but in chinese language you get to they wanted to become like them. they're currently $59.00 confucius institutes spread across $44.00 african country music institutes together with existing economic ties add to china's significant reach over the continent. nairobi based journalist who writes extensively on after chinese relations she argues that while the chinese government may have a firm economic briefing on the continent the most significant partnerships are being created outside boardrooms. i think the important thing to understand when we talk about the kind of chinese culture that is exported is that it is a very specific. cocktail of mainstream generally
6:34 am
mainstream han culture that has passed through the prism. of the c.c.p. of the common chinese communist party but at the same time not everything that comes here in kenya that you reach that makes its way here from china is pastor that lines of the party there are a lot of day to day interactions between individuals that i feel like is a much more rich and interesting place to look at because those things are not mediated by the state. in bustling ne ruby it's hard not to see how these more informal into cultural interactions have influenced everyday life in the city has already played host to chinese kenya joining our performances which are growing in popularity especially among the younger generation 3 chinatowns have popped up across nairobi since the 1980 s. offering traditional chinese cuisine with a clean interest. back in eldar it andrew is under no illusions he knows that
6:35 am
a one sided cultural exchange is no exchange but he's also in need of a job and if that means working in china says that's exactly what he'll do. you know that's very interesting and this wondering if awarded possible for people in china about to see african languages like. or treat. i guess we'll just have to see how things pan out now talking about the influence or not of foreign powers of africa we hit the streets of our young people this question after 60 years of independence from british rule how really independent is nigeria today. just like your friend. i think isn't a question of how independent will be able to use on the pin this fall we have a government we have to make decisions ourselves and we have
6:36 am
a. leader as without actually being. axing anyone for permission to do what we do and for me i think we i mean the independent is just like how you know when you imprison somebody's favorite long time even when gas in your mind. you know is still increasing will take some time for them to. sort of realize i've actually if we if you look back on the past years you'd realize that things really got worse so i don't think it's a question of independence but how will the meeting with to use it and we've not been able to use as much as we could of we are not so independent to because where we are from well what's we are known for. we can't that's a step back because we're trying to be like our colonial masters there's some form of neo colonial in the same but i don't like to see that people say it exists and it might be happening subconsciously but i think. people are trying to take
6:37 am
advantage of africa as my case for me just shows the potential that we have so whether people take advantage of it. or we take advantage of it is a different question i think the best thing you can do is continue to evolve. countries. india for example doesn't have any natural resource a search for the people is work really hope the country who. know they're more or less a war there is this returning confidence returning to us as nigerians which i find very interesting to see and i think it should continue i think people should be taught some more about where they are from and starts to appreciate. this lunch displace. so we've just heard the voices of young nigerians some argue that africa is still dealing with the effects of colonialism. really to
6:38 am
blame for that and what can we the young generation do to break free and cause. you to come out and put the question to young kenyans in our street debate in nairobi. the 77 percent is in nairobi the capital of kenya and it is in this city that the kenyan flag went up we were declared independent but how independent is kenya and indeed the rest of africa this is the question that we're asking today on our subject neocolonialism why is it still a thing in africa and who is to blame but before we go too far let's come to who is a political analyst and a writer here in kenya how would you describe neo colonialism what does it mean to you. i think that coming from a gave us the best of finishing for neocolonialism which is station peerless and what you have is indirect influence of political decision making of your nomic decision making ok so let me come to the farmer right here mr michael could be
6:39 am
because your farm as you mentioned is over 100 years old suddenly older than the nation of kenya do you feel like you're beholden to the person who began this farm absolutely and i believe we need. a hearts. we really shouldn't be complaining too much about. let me come back to nigella i want to challenge you basically based on what michael has said we should be talking about neo con and right now look at me and fairview farm we're doing it on our own we're talking about colonization and we're talking about imperialism we're not talking about individual experiences we're talking about a systemic issue yes you're able to grow your coffee ad and run your coffee tours but is the price for example that you're that you're selling your coffee at reflective of the labor that has gone into producing that coffee or is it reflective of political priorities that have been set elsewhere exploitation of power disparities where the profits of certain regions or certain parts of the
6:40 am
world is the very definition of neocolonialism ok i'd like to come to because i just want to you know piggyback on what mandalay saying that it is a system and it is exploitative but where are the politicians the people who should be of those international tables making better deals for. saying this doesn't work for us anymore can a struggles with the kinds of political leadership that is dysfunctional that is exploiting say that it's violent that's discriminator there's also this culture that stems from a neo clearly colonial space of leadership that excludes people from their leaders which is putting the people into this vicious cycle of constantly saying we need better we need better but nothing ever changes because the bubble of and the shield of neo colonialism is so thick so we're saying that oh my goodness that the that new colonialism once again is seeping into basically every single factor of our lives politically economically even how we think yeah socially and i'm just wondering from tony in what ways does new colonialism still have an impact in the way we are governed i mention the french very briefly the french have never
6:41 am
mentally left africa ever you can see what goes on in the least the highest glory of african evolution to become a frenchman or. the french have never lost that mentality but one might argue that kenyans have not lost that mentality we are after all having this conversation in english no but can is a very different country we may be confused but on to addressed immediately our political leadership all neocolonialism relies on somebody having the lead in their pocket in that case is your gripe then with your own government or with the colonial government that created structures in which we are governed as we are that is very little the only strain to blame the british all the strain all the time you keep complaining about white people by which you mean european people and the truth is this the new colonized that china all right i'd like to get some more views on this site the problem came with
6:42 am
a philosophical foundations of this country like if we're talking about export we didn't center the people who live in this land we're in so what we're experiencing now. oh is a result of what happened so the worst is still to blame but we reproduce what we did but is it fair let me ask shafer here is it fair to sort of lump the whole western world into you know their white savior as they're trying to come and save us we don't need their help is there room for collaboration or is it just going to be this bipolar dialogue. well i think i think room for collaboration that existed or that has been assumed to exist has existed in their white terms so even as we collaborate we are collaborating within their own structures within their own arguments within. within their own requirements white people have always wanted to enforce and to carry forward their whiteness and their supremest we should be able
6:43 am
to enforce and carry forward our blackness our black supremacy but it's never going to happen because we don't have the leadership that is capable to emerge in our own governance and their engagement out of the freedom that is mostly a colonial but is necessary to lose of this waitress sentiment this is a good we are playing here and sometimes i get tired of it or this is going to take way to grants that i want something specific to us government never have won a lot of these scholarships and so on don't lose weight but you tell your own story in your own way i feel like what's this weighty sentiment i never beside the boat being colonized by the british of all the colonizers schools history and you know we have this please please please contextualize that i will never be sad because that's the way real politics of the wheel of history has been colonized by the belgians didn't give a damn but i'm not going to go and keep painting our boat name. so yes yes yes yes and i'd like to give i'd like to give let me come to schaefer because she's so
6:44 am
exhausted her hands are on her head. because the thing is this rate so the context is when we when i hear people talk about they don't have a problem with having the colonised i question how deep. are you in this neo colonial struggle that you actually embraced your abuser and made them feel made her feel that she was right for doing what they did to you tony is saying that the facts can't be changed that the world order at the time was as it was the world order was white people stealing from black africans that was the what i think sometimes when we speak very carelessly and very casually about very fundamental things that have was in the mess that we are and i really don't appreciate it ok tony do you agree with the charge that he was so deeply neo colonized yourself that you don't see why your utterances could have been that is absolutely bollocks. british language is a people. that is bollocks because we educated in the us we yet it's like those
6:45 am
people who fail in life and keep talking about how their father was an alcoholic or their mother never loved them enough and be like that it must lose their victim mentality about the british especially which we have in this country we started with a very critical question neocolonialism why is it still in africa well the answer is in our history and who's to blame for it apparently we are thank you for watching. that's what i'd call. so drowning in the past or swim towards new future what's your view on the colonialism and its impact on african countries. we would definitely love to hear from you so pay us a visit on you tube to watch stuff for discussion that if it's going. yes a different perspective from other parts of the continent. and one big boy it.
6:46 am
