you look good there so if turkey sends us back to china they will put us in jail forever or shoot us dead. lawyer our dinner represents many weaker refugees he has a fake folder with extradition requests from china there have been no deportation so far as his ag in but pressure from beijing is growing. especially during the coronavirus pandemic chinese investments have become very important for turkey's troubled economy 2 major chinese mobile phone companies have recently announced that they want to invest here and he relies on the chinese made vaccine i think china uses all of that to exert pressure on turkey. chinese capital has become increasingly important for the turkish economy in recent years comport for example one of the country's largest container terminals is now

majority owned by a chinese consulate so is it stumbles fulton celebrates does this make turkey more accessible to chinese interests the ruling a k party denies that. this extradition treaty with china is about criminals we have similar agreements with 32 other countries it is extremely wrong to present it as an agreement against al we get brothers and sisters. on that you see you could she has always been grateful to the turkish government for its support of the weakest but now she feels that something is changing or should the extradition agreement with china be ready to fight she fears her name could also appear on the deportation list bands up there i am now an activist the fact that i search for my father and other relatives makes me a criminal in china. and now i'm afraid that what has happened to others could one

day happen to me. but shame c.-a does not want to give up her protest be quiet disappear in the crowd. she wants for the fate of her father and that of the many other disappeared weakest to not difficult. in spain almost 2 and a half 1000000 people work in the tourism sector the spanish island of majorca is an absolute visitor magnet beautiful beaches and a legendary nightlife attract millions of people each year but just like everywhere else in europe the cold in 1000 and they make has hits majorca tourism sector pretty hard now beaches are deserted many locals are drifting into poverty because they have lost their jobs in hotels and restaurants they are hoping that the summer will bring back some visitors be it for a nose or locals. palmas sunny winters normally attract plenty of

tourists but there are just a handful of people on these beaches. almost everything is different on the island these days despair is growing and the few visitors can feel the somber mood and unusual emptiness. that wouldn't of thought it would end this way now case goes and really sad when i got. here is a ghost town but at least in public to me are. due to the high infection rates on the islands almost everything is close bars restaurants and the large hotels. tourism has come to a standstill. scenes like this are now part of palmas new cityscape people waiting patiently for a free food package for example at the tar door aid organization. prior

to the corona crisis 200 meals were distributed here daily that number has now risen to almost 2000 all the pandemics effect on my orca has been brutal and although the government gives out subsidies they're often not enough and this is the case for india i know say that and her partner she lost her job as a hostess in a hotel. that's just i mean got to them there were so many people lining up here that i'm not ashamed to be here but when i just find it sad to have to ask but i mean we did used to in a day when you have the camille one of them that tony organizes the aid programs for target or the organization is financed solely by private donations he says majorca social structure is slowly crumbling. that's when most the yemeni people who have long been on the fringes of society. now we see normal families children

haven't been able to work since the summer on. the aid organization also run shelters tony showed us one just a few blocks away up to 80 people can stay here. more and more locals are trapped on a downward spiral and are losing their homes as a result of losing their jobs. majorca has just under 1000000 inhabitants a 3rd of them are now living in poverty. and. danielle chavez from argentina is sharing a single room with his wife and 3 children. until 6 months ago they lived in an apartment and both parents had jobs at a hotel. don't most. jobs emerging really well we mean well and then suddenly the virus came and things began to go downhill he was in

because. the people of majorca have been hit hard by the crisis. but activist is demonstrating with others in front of an apartment building to prevent an eviction. mohamed el from morocco has been pressured by as landlord to move out as he can no longer afford the rent. despite the pandemic there are about 10 evictions in palma every week and it's the moment. if the chains of france's apartments are on the rise and families are squatting in places because they have no other options are being. mohammad is lucky with the help of the protesters his eviction has been cancelled for the time being. many people on my orca are angry they're demanding the government's resignation and say state aid has arrived to

slowly or not at all politicians argue the lockdown cannot be relaxed because the infection rate is still high and intensive care stations full is not a month i mean. it's normal that people protests and we understand that it is the me but at the same time our main priority is to improve the health situation there has to be less pressure on hospitals after all human lives are at stake. the times are tough but the people of majorca are showing solidarity restaurant owners distribute food packages to those in need by among them jose money on noble cause yet who is fighting for the survival of his business. until now the state has only provided subsidies of 1500 euros so you have to look at mco but i don't think it's that we want to help those who are worse off than i

was this is going to be our worst year ever you know that i know that the government is just talking or actually action because we are all in a dire situation and we must tell them when the market will go. at noon and they distribute a hot chocolate. and a sandwich people receive their packages like hesitation they know all too well either that or your guy is heading into another tough year and it will be a long time before vacationers return to the island. from a holiday island now on to a winter paradise that is also experiencing the absence of tourists in france the skiing season is basically over because of the coronavirus skill lifts are not operating but the shutdown is not stopping some from going out for winter sports anyway many are scaping to the snow covered peyronie's in search of some action.

giving. the 1st lesson in sushi is anyone but backwards souls. these days many beginners are heading to the period nice and with putin reason. over the school board with the lift stations are closed because of the pandemic so you can go snowshoe hiking or cross-country skiing you don't need lifts for either little to make a. motion day sure nobody runs the risk of an accident and those should except for avalanche dangers groups a small as this are still loaded friends. live from it it's a different kind of exaction and skiing. you can reach other places on us and i shoot high. above all it's peaceful calming and not to talk crowded because

this is this vast and this is an authentic nature experience which is exactly what we're looking for when the truth the fact that many people are hungry for nature is a boon for the french economy this new she manufactures orders have shot up from 30000 peers to 100000th. we are drowning in order here we don't know how to manage to do both but it's a positive stress better than begging the government for a loan or asking for financial aid as far as covert 19 is concerned we are one of the lucky ones also. snowshoe hikes in the mountains give people a chance to breathe fresh year without masks and experience nature. from 1300 to 1700 meters and back down again. can't replace.

but it should need skillet city to bring in the mountains and escape the stress of the pandemic at least for a short time. i'd like to try it out sometime but that does there isn't enough snow in this region well that brings us to the end on europe for today take care and see you next time.

good. good. good. everything all my. the labor market completely digital at this startup even much comes out of the printer. what about working from home e-mail here a child message there was the call away from burnout more psychological hygiene or you'll get a remote telling off from the doctor maybe he needs more screen time is out of the

question we have to turn back or else it's really going to be the 1st made in germany. 30 minutes w. . to the point strong opinions clear position in the international perspective such. as covert 19 takes an ever harsher told me their hopes on vaccines developed in record time yet in many places there rollout has been patching the race for covert vaccines the british against or our top economists the top. point. 8910 minutes on d w. young german jewish i'm jewish so what. does that mean in daily life and at school 11 teenagers 11 stories page i'm sure i'm so.

german and jewish starts feb 22nd on d w. imagine so many push polls lots of us right now from the uk right now climate change me finish off the story. faces lifelessly way from just one week. how much work and really do. we still have time to our fun doing. what it says. to subscribe to and morning news like this. last week on physically be together shoulder to shoulder but we are going to scream scream at me all you guys because i have to cut my difficult challenge and join me and millions on the world to speak out for nature and show me how i can be stupid i'm switching off hours because i kept planning is what got full join those for the

27th of march 15th 30 pm for a soccer game to speak up for. the 2. this is deja vu news a live from berlin and prosecutors rest their case in the 2nd impeachment trial against donald trump they're urging senators to convict the former presidential for inciting the storming of the capitol on january 6th they say the violent mob was acting on his orders to try to stop the certification of chilled by and selection our correspondent in washington for more also coming up on the show german

chancellor angela merkel admits to mistakes in dealing with the 2nd wave of the brown a virus endemic but she insists faster spreading viral variants make it necessary to extend the country's national walked out. and took fire and you know pull off what only one other club has ever done before 6 major titles in one year now including the world club championship. hello i'm claire richardson welcome to the show prosecutors have wrapped up their case in the 2nd impeachment trial against donald trump they urged senators to convict the former president for inciting the violence mob that stormed the capitol on january 6th they often turn to video footage of the unrest to make their case trumps legal team will get

a chance to present its arguments on friday. so the jurors but timely end to the day's hearings on the 3rd day of the impeachment trial of donald trump prosecutors made their closing pitch without using up their allotted speaking time of 16 hours. i wanted to start simply by saying that in the history of humanity democracies an extremely rare and fragile and precarious and transitory thing this isn't just an attack on the capitol building and the dedicated people inside it was an attack on what we were elected to preserve our democracy. and. the prosecution made heavy use of video footage of the january 6th riots to prove that the former president had incited the violent insurrection. impeachment is not to punish but to prevent we are not here to tarnish donald trump we're here to

prevent the seeds of hatred that he planted from bearing any more fruit republican lawmakers who are quick to dismiss the arguments that argument today. but they were also repetitive. after the bill of. trump's defense team will make its case on friday the way to a final vote is expected this weekend the 2 thirds majority is needed to impeach a trumpery meaning 17 republican senators have to cross the aisle. and earlier i asked our washington correspondent stephan simons what we can expect when the defense presents its arguments. they to face he will probably try to poke holes in the argument of the house impeachment managers off the democrats and pointing out perhaps that there was an added t.n.n. added there in the video presentations that the president cannot be charged or

found guilty for anything the democrats are charging him with or want him to be charged and found guilty with they will be expected to not take 2 days you know each day 8 hours 16 hours for the defense to. it is expected that there are cut this a little bit short because they already lost the argument of the unconstitutionality or the constitutionality of this entire trial so the senate has found in the beginning of those 3 days the last 3 days that this constitution this ok to impeach the president and that they have the jurisdiction to do this so that's a gone argument for the defense so they will try to make their best case and put their best case forward their permit probably busy now streamlining their defense tactic for tomorrow stephens i was there in washington d.c. well here in germany chancellor angela merkel has admitted to failings in the

handling of the 2nd wave of the corona virus outbreak she told parliament that the government response had not been careful or fast enough opposition members jarrett as she defended the decision to extend the national lockdown and local businesses are furious germany's streets will remain empty and it stores closed for another 3 long weeks at least because while in fiction numbers keep fulling worries of a dangerous new tysons remain germany's lockdown will be extended until sunday march the 7th but those despairing over bad penn demi care can go a week earlier than that to the south lawn schools and kindergartens will begin reopening in february already and the government has set an ambitious new target for the 7 day in fiction right. chancellor angela merkel told pollen meant that while people are exhausted by the pandemic restrictions this is not a time to be opening back up again. notice the others also force you to do research

is still ongoing but we shouldn't doubt the assessments of many experts here in germany and abroad again i bet i only 3 mutations are more aggressive and significantly more contagious than the original virus. merkle in the state premiers haggled over the next steps long into wednesday evening the states insisted that schools and day kids should reopen markel would have preferred more caution on this point ended up giving in as she's done before merkel sought to remind the public of the thousands of lives the pandemic has ended in germany in the fashion. well over 60000 people have now died they are our mothers fathers children relatives friends who we can no longer predict morning game it's always on our minds when we make decisions in this pandemic. the vaccine rollout in

germany has been much slower than heart to the opposition it's an obvious failure of the government form ponder we've gone from masters of the pen to make last spring to europe's vaccination stranglers today vaccination centers have been empty for weeks millions of citizens stuck in queues for hours on end and you say nothing's gone wrong we're behind remain behind greece behind slovakia on vaccinations to work over. even though here so long as we'll begin reopening in a few weeks they'll be subject to strict hygiene measures many other businesses that will just have to wait for better times. and health experts in britain say the coronavirus a variant 1st detected in southern england is likely to become the world's most dominant u.k. authorities are now examining up to 10 percent of positive tests for mutations they want to contain this more contagious variant before it's too late scientists

leading the british teams as other countries must do more without delay our correspondent charlotte reports. in the global fight against covert 19 is mutations the depriving the next great challenge and here in the u.k. authorities are taking that fight directly into people's homes. they're doing door to door k. protesting in areas where limitations have been found the goal to identify cases before they have a chance to spread. it was just one case of the south african variants found here in this community that launched this door to door testing scheme but the concern is that one case could just be the tip of the iceberg ordinarily only a small amount of positive covert tests to scream 2 mutations mean that when they are found authorities here a cracking down hard it's thanks to genome sequencing that authorities can pinpoint

where to look the u.k. is the world leader in sequencing analyzing 10 percent of positive covert samples but the emergence of new variance in toto the team of the u.k.'s prove it 19 genomics to suit him is responsible for almost half the world's poor by sequencing . work he will continue to prove crucial as more mutations emerge i don't think we've seen the full spectrum of mutations that could arise so the very common in england at the moment 117 that's very good at spreading but actually what i'm looking for very carefully is mutations going into that there isn't that also impacts on immunity and that's what starts to worry me considerably and that is what we're seeing in the in the u.k. but no population is immune to taishan that's why professor peacock says genome sequencing needs to become a global priority without comprehensive international screening it's feared new

more dangerous variants could take hold putting vaccine programs at risk we take actions will be in the 4 corners of the lots that we don't know about that would be quite concerned. we don't know about now the reason that's important for all of us is because some of these variants are actually going to lead to a challenge in terms of immunization now that is really critical as we go forward we need to know what the virus is doing so that we can keep up with that scene development what is already being done to modify that seems to protect against existing variants. professor paul he is the chief investigator at the u.k.'s nerve event spanx in trial he says he's confident sequencing can help manufacturers keep ahead of mutations one of the. technologies. that we're seeing. in the production of 19 backings a very. simple and so it's entirely

possible that modified vaccines will emerge very quickly from the vaccine manufacturers and drank scenes will likely have to adapt in the meantime identifying and isolating mutations will be an invaluable tool in the cats and mouse game between fact scenes and variants. but. let's turn our attention now to some other stories making news around the world at least 6 people have died in a massive pileup on a texas highway at least 65 others were injured when about 130 cars crashed on a stretch of road near fort worth police say icy conditions may have led to the crash. the legendary american jazz pianist and composer check a career has died at 79 the 23 time grammy award winner died of
