runyan feel they have no real choice at the ballot box. now, again, i'm not taking part in the election. we participated for many years and it had no impact on our lives. and the elections are not free with them. so i have voted 3 times before, but what i wanted never came to pass. so this time i'll definitely not vote public dissatisfaction and high inflation. no one's living in comfort and peace and the government never keeps its work. medical paradoxically, this increases raise his chances of winning even further because he runs most conservative voters are the ones that usually do turn up at the pulse. in the long term though, if he's elected, a lack of public support could end up undermining his standing or joining us now for some analysis is the head of the b w person service yelder. are bosh. hi ya. that good to see you. and is this election really

a voting exercise in name only? hey, yes, you know, the thing is that when we talk about elections in iran, in general, we cannot, we cannot, we cannot presume what we understand and rest on the market is as election. so the election, we want to have always been engine, engine, engine here in a way. but there is a big difference in this year's election because in a, in the last years, at least, they were trying to, to keep up appearances of a republic by allowing, you know, reformers candidates also called before the candidates. but the thing and feds and disappears election not only regarding concepts is not disqualified every, every candidates could be a potential threat to the hotline are candidates and running, right? you see who as it seems and every here her to the new force will be elected. but he

is kind of also the, the favorite candidate off a supreme either i have to love how many and what is, what is it important to you also to see is that even hard line or candidate who could be a challenge to it. but you see we're not allowed, but who are at the same time are close to the supreme either. so it is very, it is the 1st time that it is such a manufacturer. it's kind of election to pay the way for one particular candidate. right, well let's take a look at the fact that the country's been suffering from economic problems for many years now. close out, it's about, you've got the punitive sanctions and because of the nuclear program, how is this affecting turn? i've been it is affecting turn off because people are disappointed. people are fit up. it is like even the people who may be the last 4 years ago or 8 years ago, even had a slight of hope in some changes. now after 8 years of the government of president

han, you came to the came to the conclusion that there is actually no, no chance for any kind of change in this direction. so we wouldn't the thing right now this year is really on in social media on the streets every, every saw in the report, a huge kind of boy cut of election. but it's in the end, we don't know what the turn out will be because you can also not rely on the, on the numbers and the figures that will come. so what we, what we see now actually is that this time it's not even so important for them. if there was a low turn out to legit, my state the the system of this for public. all right, we'll leave it there. you are back from the persian service. thanks for that analysis. let's take

maya opened a special exhibition today here in berlin. men, women, and children, victims of the nazis war on the soviet union. 27000000 soviet citizens died. 14000000 of them were civilians. the opening ceremony of the special ed submission in berlin, german president, franklin sustained my a paid tribute to them. the daughter taking the weight on the german war against the soviet union was murderous barbarity. as difficult as we may find it, we must call this mind and then remembering this inferno absolute enmity and the act of dehumanizing the other in the long run visas and found on absolute remembering. this continues to be an obligation for us, germans and long life. and memorials before the world, when david and mamma, according to stein maia, germany has so too long,

failed to recognize the many victims in the occupied east. that the nazis took almost $6000000.00 soviet prisoners of war over the course of 4 years. they were treated brutally, they were executed, our staff to death. more than 3000000 soviet prisoners of war died, making them one of the largest group of nazi victims. but in berlin, the ongoing conflict between russia and ukraine overshadowed the commemorations. the ukrainian ambassador boy caught at the event german president stein maya cautioned against the risk of new divisions. and also the, the owners have to get when they change on different types of remembrance comes to hold or is rejected. writing history becomes an instrument for new conflict, them, instrument and conflict. the object of new forms of present on the most. i firmly believe that we must not allow history to become a wet to darkness. so after that,

it's part of germany's identity to keep the memories of chapters in its history alive. but commemorating anniversaries like this one remains a challenge for politicians. even a t is on. all right, well, i'm joined by d. w political correspondent in manuel shies. i manuel good to see you again. and what is your takeaway from president shy myers remarks. while pablo dee's speech was very strong, very significant. those were the words of 10 men from german president hung about on the year. he reminded that nobody had had more victory and the people of the former soviet union during world war 2. those were real worth of atonement from the president who also reminded that those victims are currently not so present in the german collective memory. and he said this was a duty of remembrance for germany. the country has done a lot when it comes to its is, you know, the culture of the cold here,

the culture of remembrance when it comes to some effect. so we're to the concentration camps, for example, which i know memorials, but not all crimes perpetrated during world war 2 are being remembered with the same intensity. in fact, our various degrees of remembrance and some crime is being left out altogether from collective memory. and that is something that talk about those time i was on the speech today. he had very strong words when it comes, when it came to what happened doing that, barbara salvation, you mentioned the figures when the nazis invaded the soviet union. he talked about murder, isn't murderous, barbarism. right? will tell me a little bit more about what concrete action germany is, taking to increase awareness of this, of the soviet suffering. and in world war 2. while this very event, the fact that the german pe, the doug would come to the jama, russia knew them and acknowledge what happened, acknowledged those. this is an inverse story of the beginning of the barber

operation is already a step in the right direction. he also said that it was for germans the duty to remember to remember dehumanization dnd mitchie to have that was what you mentioned . it was not only about buttons on the battlefield between 2 armies. it was so tortures congregation of populations, especially populations in bella, roost in ukraine. haven't had acknowledgment that they would have liked to have had from germany so far. and inside the did the ambassador from ukraine refuse to attend the ceremony because it was happening in german rush and knew them for this teal, a lot of work of a ton meant to do by germany. and it is, it is starting, but it's still a long process right briefly. what's the row being in the anniversary ceremony of, of relation of countries like russia and say, betters well, that this kind of event can,

can really show can, can really show the role of germany as a pass, like a pay, a peacemaker between both countries. of course, with not all parties attending this is, this is, this will be a goal difficult to achieve. all right, we'll leave it there and you shall dw political correspond, thanks for that. and the number of people fleeing war as violence or civil disorder rose again last year. even as the crone of our respond amick brought much of the world to a standstill. by the end of 2020, there were 82400000 people forcibly displaced from their homes. that's according to the united nations refugee agency. it's double the figure from a decade ago, more than 2 thirds of those officially recognized as refugees came from just 5 countries, syria, venezuela, of gun sized sudan, myanmar. our next report takes us to pakistan, which has hosted hundreds of thousands of african refugees for,

for decades. the hardin con, runs a small grocery store in this refugee camp in pakistan. every day he checks his income and expenses. what he was about the same age is this child when his family flat afghan is done some 40 years ago. today, it's a distant memory. what a young that we had done, there was a war going on. so when the situation became was our school was the youngest on, took a thought and we've been able to live here like our g, but had to say, fled up kind of stone after the soviet invasion in 1979. he has lived in the camp ever since. it's one of 20 in this province alone. more than

a 1000000 afghans live in pakistan, they're largely on their own. you will be lying. if i said we got financial support, let go. the truth is, we don't get any aid from the pakistani government to milan. now, for the 1st time, pakistan is registering the african refugees residing in the country. registered refugees are issued a biometric identity card. many children born here have never been registered to its hope. the data will give into national agencies a clearer picture of the needs. in the refugee community side, we are collecting a most updated information such as educational vocational

skews also may be wrong. we also might be just updating that information is also going to assist us to better design wrong about not only in the package was enough guns, wednesday the town to africa, texas tony or sarah cheese have tried to encourage refugees to return home. nadine and jobs is interviewing families to see if they're ready to make the move off. the nato troops leave afghanistan. the new id cards are only valid until 2023. so i'm in a questionnaire. it's a situation in afghanistan normalizes. and do they want to leave? i think 90 percent of the refugees answer with a no they do not want to go back to their home country the here. busy didn't fit the how didn't con one thing clear, he will only return home, says peace. yes. all right, well let's be to chris meltzer now he's

a spokes person for the un refugee agency. hi, chris, welcome to d w. now we just saw in our report there africans who have fled conflicts. your report shows that the number of people who've been forced to flee their homes rose again despite the pandemic. now, what are the biggest drivers behind this rise? well, if you have already mentioned that the 5 countries are the most rapid sheets are coming from and indeed from these 5 countries from syria to me on mar, there's a 68 percent of the of the record. she's still more than 2 thirds. these are still the big dr. 6.7000000 students known i'll set up their own country as refugees. but they also of course, other, other countries, other reaching other situations, other crises with what these problem. let's take, for example, with some wreckage he's looking to dance with, with and also

a lot of tons 1st. so people who are recognizing their own country but well, you've mentioned a few countries there. i'm where are the majority of these refugees ending up and are they able to stay? there's a big question. the clear is that most of the refugees and the direct neighboring country about 3 caught up the record sheets are in the, in the vicinity of the, of that home because they would love to go back. the hope that they could go back and 86 percent. so almost 9 out of 10 refuge. she's living in developing countries . countries who have already a lot of problems that take me on mar, it's about 1000000 record sheets on the dish. the dish is also a country, that is, this is really not rich. and indeed the question is, if the can, if pressure, she's not only by the dash, but the number of countries if you can stay on the possibility to,

to product. that is indeed one of the crucial questions. right, well no, children make up a disproportionate amount of displaced people. chris over 40 percent, many are born as refugees. many are stateless. what kind of impact does that have on those children's futures? yes. alone, a 1000000 of shit were born between the year 2018 and 2000000 children were born and we're already wreckage. this is one of our priorities actually, because quite often when i talked to, to refugees, they told me when the parents we generation does take care of our children, the future. so the parents, of course, for us not in last generation, but indeed so important for the children to get the future. by if you cation, we can say that most of the children can get some kind of cation for

a couple of years. writing calculate something, but indeed when it comes to secondary education, something it's it's, we are very pessimistic, unfortunately. right. so some serious challenges there. let's. so my refugees who do actually return, what are the conditions like for them? it depends on the countries. sometimes the countries are very open again for the refugees and last year for quite a 1000000 ref. if she could go home in different different country and also another 3200000. he told the police and persons who are already of course in their country could go home again, but very often to face all the problems like things that are destroyed. and sometimes the cleavage is still there. so when they are going back, there was a reason why they flit their home and not always the reason where bashed. right let's,

let's move on to what some where is that the un high commissioner for refugees that for the program. the said that inclusion is key, but tools are lacking. now would you say that here in germany, refugees are being given those tools what germany is doing a lot for the inclusion of refugees. and we see also the success of his id. so many refugees. not only from the last time he is actually on the 3040, maybe 50 who are now part of the science on to are kind of it of trenton and richard the society. but also only if you take a lot 56 years since 2000 in so many refugees that are off. but of course it's important that the society society is open to accept them. and it's important for the refugees that they are willing to integrate. namely, learning the language, flexible and then work. yeah. all right, we'll leave it there. chris meltzer of the us have the aren't. thank you for all

that to euro 2020 on today's 1st much, where sweden jumped to the top of group with a one nail when over the vacuum. after a goal is the 1st half sweden striker alexander. in fact, pressured these vaccines earning a penalty that teammate annual force burg put away perfectly sweet and now have 4 points from 2 games. but it will be fridays like game that will grab all the attention england and scotland are preparing to rekindle the oldest rivalry in world football in fridays late game. the 2 will meet at wembley stadium in london with a colorful history raising the stakes in this group, the showdown scotland fans gave their men side a full throated welcome as they returned to a major tournament after a 23 year drought during their euros opener against the czech republic, but for all the fan enthusiasm there, come back on the big stage, didn't go as gloriously as they'd hoped. scotland fell to new and glass goes hamden
