6:02 am
see eye to eye. when the west talks amongst itself the us president has the 1st word and he delivered what his partners in europe wanted to hear america is back the transatlantic alliance is back and joe biden was clear about america's core mission. most prepared together for a long term strategic competition with china tricky for germany whose economic recovery from cove it is made in china it angela merkel says she's ready to take on the challenge with a no to be a softer tone you know how than in. over the past 2 years china has gained global power and we have to set something against that as a transatlantic alliance and as democracies and that's why the question of not just china and russia getting vaccines to developing and other countries is very
6:03 am
important. and the fixings then doesn't 50 a man or a mark or warns that america's interests were no longer always the same as europe's and spoke about his favorite theme of european sovereignty of europe 0 pinion its key members. have to be part of the solution of their own security french and german interpretations of sovereignty may remain different yet both share the relief over the new u.s. administration. and so multilateralism are a lot better today than 2 years ago and that has a lot to do with the fact that 2 biden has become president of the united states and starting from the milica of all the newest in some of the munich security conference will have the whole world back at the diplomatic table this preview set the tone from the west undermine democracy doesn't happen by accident we have to
6:04 am
defend it fight for strength to be renewed. we have to prove that our model isn't a relic of history. it's the single best way to revitalize the promise of our future. but that comeback of the west under u.s. leadership is by no means certain. and for more i'm joined now by did his washington bureau chief you know as paul he has biden saying there that democracy must be defended what exactly is he referring to there and what is it is his administration's plan for actually tackling what he calls democracy under threat. well long before use of the institutions that kept the u.s. from kaos has been a challenge greatly you know whether it is the independence of the justice department and the trust in the election process itself really has pushed the
6:05 am
limits of how far a u.s. president can go and we saw the consequences ungenerous 6 i mean when his supporters to take the capital to stop the peaceful transition of power so the rise of awesome crowds around the world is going to be a challenge for the new administration and biden was at the munich security conference with the core message that the united states is back as a reliable partner but what actual policies has his administration introduced to assure european allies. well much of what he has done so far is mostly at a diplomatic level like the really entering of the perilous climate agreement today but there have also been some substantial actions already that he has taken for example renegotiating the start treaty with strong was planning to let run out this february and biden will have a lot on his plate he will have to convince the rest of the world that the
6:06 am
nationalistic pall that scene is of the last 4 years of the united states are history and biden has made a harsh warnings about the threat he says is posed by russia your rising china but his european allies are probably not on the exact same page so how will they be able to bridge their divide here. this is going to be one of the crater jelen just hold the transatlantic relationship germany for example as a major export country really relies on china as a huge market and once to keep strong relationships while biden has been clear that china is the u.s. greatest competitive global economy is also when it comes to knowledge through to russia germany and the united states have very very different takes on the white house is not in favor of it and they even threaten saying sions against entities involved in that project so there will be
6:07 am
a lot of work to do you know as european leaders are feeling relief that they have bite and at the how now the trump years were a tough lesson about relying too much on the united states to think europe has moved on in a meaningful way that will have an impact on biden's ability to cooperate with the european union. yeah well you know there's a lot of talk today at the munich security conference and we shall see of europe if europe really deliver as if they really pay their fair share for example when it came comes to nato and if they're really come together and we saw what we saw lately for example regarding the cole with 19 policies. so promising from the american perspective. is pull in washington d.c. thank you so much. meanwhile germany has been marking one year since 9 people were

6:33 am
library they want to produce short video messages for social media just plain how to report sexual abuse. and maybe giving young people of ice. and encouraging them on ways they can use to speak out and also raise awareness around the issue of child abuse and these findings in their own comfortable ways using their skills using their talents the videos are popular teenagers across south africa watch them and many comments describe in their own experiences of sexual violence or asking for help so that is why i say stand up taking action and speak for yourselves. today is jack. to record his message. that we should speak up and we should all understand what abuse is and i think that
6:34 am
we mustn't take it lightly thank you jack hopes that he can mobilize men and boys around the issue of sexual violence because it matters not only to women but to all . i think we as men should unite. to stop woman and child abuse was i think this is something that right destroy our future as a nation. it destroyed this life she was a member of another program for violence prevention by the south african police. was a school safety complainer kept her own suffering a secrete for years she was abused by a family member. she took a life after she fell pregnant. a child activist have a video call meeting with
6:35 am
a marvelous friends from the other youth group at death motivated both groups to work together to amplified voices a young activist. campin against sexual violence to mark lee in an effort to commemorate her life and to make sure that have passed and was not in vain. because her story doesn't isn't just her story it's the story of others and it gives us much more reason to continue and now we are able to collaborate with other people who are not even in the same place as us but we know that these things occur so we just keep pushing the legacy. to symmetry and. you find hoping that our marketplace legacy will encourage a victims of abuse to speak out too often sexual abuse stays hidden because victims are too terrified to name get tormented the groups message is clear we have the
6:36 am
right to behead. that is also what we are doing in our street debate giving survivors of rape and the message abuse of boys because many are afraid of even telling family members or friends what was done to them. my colleague christine well was in johannesburg there she talked to a tour women would tell the harrowing stories of being raped and of being beaten up . the 77 percent is in johannesburg now around the world women are fighting for equality but in this country women are also having to fight for their safety that is because south africa's one of the most unsafe places in the world to be
6:37 am
a woman on today's street debate we're asking the question why why are women being victimized in this way i'm joined by my panel today and i would have thought of the conversation with jackie jackie tell us what your experience was. christine my experience was a gang rape winter club with a group of friends and little did we know that we were going to be coerced into a room upstairs inside the club and a bunch of men came in and i was getting raped there that's my 1st encounter with sexual violence right we'll come back to you jackie because i do want to establish you in the conversation as well tracy what has been your experience christine i grew up in a home of domestic violence and as a child i knew that i never wanted to live a life like my mother i wanted my life to be completely different and it wasn't and i found myself in an abusive relationship and being beaten up at some point in my life right because he said i want to bring you into the conversation right now
6:38 am
because you have told us that you were a form a picture of violence against women tell us what exactly that means well in a go 16 i you went to see my girlfriend worse you threw a stay but the idea was quite simply to take them home. so that we could have sex with them and then we took them literally against their will we were no no no if i was but. nice so but it comes. back to the time when i was 10 when my brother molested me so i grew up with this idea that sex is something to be taken. and not negotiated right ok were you angry at one understand how how you felt how you dealt with with what you experienced at that point i felt like are we ever going to be safe in any social
6:39 am
space and i was traumatized for life then going into adulthood where you start dating men who or not. they have no social compassion was basically if they hear that you've got a history of sexual violence they feel like oh well you've done this before it's not foreign so why should i be asking permission when everybody else has been taking ok i might be unfair to you for asking this question but i'm i'm just trying to understand why men would do that white white men would think that is ok to do to a woman where i grew up we had a game called. stimulus as in the train men young men will cure outside their house to rape a woman it was never called gang rape girls never called anything it was called steam and i want to get back to jackie because you seem to have risen a bit when he talked about stimulate the train here yet because i when i reflected on it later on just to understand in my head. i realize that for them it was
6:40 am
a game it who has the longest stamina who had the raunchiest things to say to a young child as a matter of fact it's like we want to see more we want to see more beauty is screaming more of your blood you going in and of consciousness and i actually do wish that i was really dying in this moment so what he's saying is it's completely right that's what they did it and i'll come over you know i mean if you've been listening to 2 to everybody speak here you're a psychologist help us understand. what i hear is that society creates a noise in which the stuff becomes acceptable and i mean i want to i want to be clear that this is not just being mentally ill people as as we understand them who are doing this is everyday people here but the culture that surrounds us is one which is the sort of behavior is ok yeah can you talk through your experience and why you might not have reported your experience i was so traumatized so scared for
6:41 am
my life because the person who raped me happened to be part of a big political party in south africa and for years i was harassed and you get the backlash also from family way you tell them that i was this was done to me and they said oh well you were not a virgin anyway so why is this important now why you still crying over it so you get that feeding of same over the years and you feel like they may just height and perhaps maybe thousands of victims in the country feel the same way that you did we're still talking about making south africa a better place for women. can you maybe talk to us about what could be done in the kinds of places in the villages like you grew up in so we need to to start almost a new culture that regards women as nothing other than human beings
6:42 am
and to know that if we speak about our own heads in our own terrible actions against women we're not letting that team down because that's what i've been told. that i'm no longer part of the team. here because no man talks about these things ok so i misjudged him in that jackie what is your as we close this debate why aren't other men say ok i also come forth i take full responsibility for what i've done over the years this is the way i'm going forward and this is how educate the next boy child. oh yes it's a story it's things like sexual harassment you are things like catcalling in the street all of these things contributed to the culture and that's the kind of stuff that they did needs to be rooted out as well that you know the circle of locker room talk is no longer acceptable yeah yeah it never should have been never should
6:43 am
have tracy so i think it is right we need to we need to talk about it now jackie and i 1st written books about our experience as has because he said and we know we write our stories we don't do it to share shame we write our stories to give permission to other people to tell the story so i think that that's a very important part of the healing process when i think that answers your question about how do we empower ourselves as victims and i think we need to talk about it we need to break the silence take away the shame and that is the very 1st stick in the healing process and that does it for our street debate here in johannesburg and of course this conversation doesn't entail we're interested to hear what you think what your experiences have been in the country that you find yourself in of course that conversation continues on social media but. a big thank you to christine and everyone who shared their story we really appreciate it as usual you can watch the full truth debate on our your tube channel
6:44 am
. now we asked you on social media what needs to be done to end this violence against women i realize is it is said that daniel from nigeria says the authorities should intervene in this matter by imposing severe punishments on all those found guilty of sexual assault ketone silence of the from kampala says we have to create awareness speak up against it and remind both men and women that there is no greater joy than love i do phelim about for my jury a says it's our collective problem parents judges of and community members together that we have to fight this evil. so many comments talk about awareness and working together to protect women and girls that's also the message of a song produced exclusively for the 77 percent by the media and quite the artist in
