e. u is also more wide reaching sanctions that would target whole sectors of bella versus economy, including a tobacco industry hurting major revenue sources for alexander lucas. shank. those machines. and for more or less bringing corresponded alexandra phenomena who was standing by with a view from luxembourg. so i was to tell us a little bit more about what the e u has agreed to. lots of foreign minister when kevin was the 1st to take to twitter to announce that the written agreement for administers has agreed to impose the 4th package of sanctions on belie ruth. and that means that as you just mentioned, more than 80 individuals and entities will be added to the thanks and list. but that's not the most important thing that it's happening here. i think what is even more important more crucial is that the foreign ministers agree in principle, that the european union needs to target whole areas of economy. we're
2:03 pm
talking here about the financial sector, possible ban on you banks preventing them from providing new loans to be a la roof. then a ban on imports of protests from b. c is the 3rd biggest potash producer in the world, and there will be also restrictions on imports of to baker to tobacco and on on the import of oil products. and this is really something that has the potential of, of hurting and b, l o c. and economy i was injured. we also now of course, rush out the most important ally of bell rows. the foreign ministers are also discussing a new strategy on russia today was planned there. while there is a broader agreement that to the european union needs a new strategy to deal with russia. but at the moment we don't think we don't see
2:04 pm
anything real new. and those discussions, according to foreign policy chief use of already there are 3 key words here. first of all, push back. that means that you have to push back on the human rights violation the, the violations. the key words here is to constrain meaning that the you should constrain russia attempt to undermine use interest through for example, cyber attacks. and the 3rd word is to engage, meaning that the european union should engage in a dialogue with russia when it's possible on climate change. for example, but that is something that we have heard before. however, this is also the 1st opportunity for the foreign ministers to meet and talk after the summit between the you as president answered the russian president last week. so it will be interesting to, to see whether the foreign ministers will have something new to say about the
2:05 pm
relations with russia. after this day of talks in luxembourg, alexander phenomena in luxembourg, thank you and fellow worthy and liter. alexander lucas shan't go, has managed to maintain his firm grip on power, despite major protests within the country and international pressure. helping to keep him there is the country secret service. and the climate of fear that they have created. the soviet dictator yoseph stolen looms larger than life at this military theme park, near men's people from all over billers have come to celebrate the so called border guard day. many like yell and support. alexander lucas. shank. oh, she works in a meat processing plant and breast on the polish border. she can't understand why people in bella. ruth wants to be rid of luca. shank. oh. what are the most important things in life? we have a salary, a job. we live in peace and our kids get
2:06 pm
a good education for me and my family. the current leadership is exactly what we need. and we like living in bella was i don't want change in the foreseeable future . master picking the young cooker less, sees bella ruth, in a positive light. he's a truck driver but has no desire to travel abroad and he feels safe with lucas shanker in charge. you go to stimulus. i'm not saying i like him, but i don't see who else i could vote for. was lucas shanker was leader. i can let my son play on the streets without any concerns. i sleep in my lory cabin without worrying that something could happen to me. many people here are untouched by the pro democracy movement. they watched a tv and work in state own companies or for the military or police. above all, it's the support of the secret service, the k g b. that is helping lucas, shank,
2:07 pm
oakland to power agents hound opposition activists and generate a climate of fear. valerie costco once worked for the k g b himself on this over to the school. he knows why there's virtually no descent in it's rank. so ya, new approach, i, 1st of all, they make good money compared to those who plow the fields or work in the factories . well, i mean they are operations who have taken on a criminal element. so lucas shank needs people who already have blood on their hands. correct, and i will call them to move them. there is no way out for you. i was telling you about that. and they'd ensured that the opposition is red and white. banners have all the disappeared. all that visible is the soviet era, red and green of the country's official flag. for many, it's become the symbol of lucas shank goes regime. and here's the look at some other stories making headlines. sweden's government has been toppled after the

the ongoing conflict to grow region. fighting there between the regions former willing party, the t growing people liberation front and both government and retrain. troops has caused untold thousands of lives and spread famine throughout the region. un figure say over 350000 people here are facing acute hunger. that includes tens of thousands of children. monday's pulling has been twice delayed due to the pandemic and logistical challenges still remain. many opposition parties are also boycotting the election because leading members of been jailed. the accused the government of rolling back, many of the men's initial reforms, hardly no species backdrop for the 1st major test of the prime minister's prosperity party. but in the run up to the vote, mister med, remain confident,
2:11 pm
seem to pulling would be his country's 1st attempt at truly free and fair elections and armenian prime minister, nickle hush. union has won another term in office after snap parliamentary elections. official results show his party has won over 50 percent of the vote, plus union called the poll to shore up his mandate after a disastrous war with us or by john last year. last year, the fire saw armenia lose large waves of territory in the long disputed new corner car box region. the election results could impact the future of the agreement with us. the, the results came instead of the after the polls closed. one figure was available quickly. turn out, despite and emotionally charged campaign, only half the eligible voters caspar bothers incumbent. nicole push ya and the paid on facebook shortly after counting started to claim victory. but we already know
2:12 pm
that we want to convincing victory in the elections and we will have been seeing majority in parliament sales force caution young called the election in a bit to stabilize his government. armenia is still smarting from its defeat as about john in the wall over the disputed enclave with no call. no kara, a peace treaty broke by russia in november. see the loss of best way to territory. a mass after thousands of on mean in soldiers had died in the fighting with the last war, kicked off a wave of protest. we've demonstrated even storming the parliament. and yet, yvonne you are going to be do i want to be able to get up in the mornings and go out for my exercise without finding a demonstration outside on the street meeting. because of the last 3 years have
2:13 pm
been awful. i economy our politics, it's all gone totally wrong. the former president rebecca, is heading for 2nd place in the polls. far behind passions party. he's already cried, fall over the result, claiming fraud. but that's unlikely to concern pushing young hu, one international praise. so leading the country to its 1st free and fair election 3 years ago, and looks set to emerge victorious once more. now the printing presses for one of hong kong leading pro democracy newspapers could stop rolling within days. the apple, bailey paper says it's friday edition is likely to be its last after authorities froze, the path that's under china's national security law. it would be another nail in the coffin for press. freedom in hong kong. these newspapers could be a thing of the past, not because of digitalization or rise in competition,
2:14 pm
that because the government wants to put a stop to them. that's what supporters of hong kong pro democracy, newspaper, apple, daily of fame. a last week, police rated the companies news room for the 2nd time, and under a year, 5 senior executives were arrested after authorities accused them of publishing articles that violated china sweeping national security law. the government also for the papers assets leaving it unable to pay staff or conduct business. the papers owners say they have enough cash to last a few weeks, but after that their future and the future of free press in hong kong is uncertain . full day or you see jimmy lie was arrested during last year's raid. he was sentenced to 14 months in prison. is his role in an anti government protest in 2019
2:15 pm
despite china's intensifying crackdown on media critical of the mainland government, many hong kong, as a still lining up to show their support. or we want to buy a copy of apple daily because of what the police did. i have to support them in any case of paid their monthly subscription fee. but i think i'll continue to buy newspapers to help them. i want to support freedom of speech because the journalists, apple daily have done nothing wrong for the moment, mom de la with an apple daily can afford to keep publishing, is uncertain. its future will be decided by the company's board on friday. see the hong is standing by with a view from hong kong. phoebe pro democracy newspaper, apple daily stopping publication in 5 days. just walk us through the timing here.
2:16 pm
last week to l. o. 5 rested excited. his watch harsh for the national security charges of conspiring collusion, foreign forces, and more the can the 3 companies length to apple day the including is printing at internet companies which are like responsible for that they operate and the newspaper were also charged as entities under the security law. so basically it makes the apple daily, almost impossible to conduct any kind of banking operation because of the freezing taxes that a total of $800000000.00 hong kong dollars were frozen buddy authorities since last week. and it is now like really hard for the newspaper to pay salary or to sustain a kind of like daily routine and publishing. so that's why people decided that they may have to shut down the newspaper, the newspaper, and the organization within this week. and it is such a big blow, in fact, the pro democracy movement just walk us through the significance
2:17 pm
in fact is not only a back low to the pose macos the cam or the movement, the cell, but also to the sequel society as a whole. that every member will be affected in the community because is now a metal freedom of expression. and apple daily, you sound at shortly before hong kong to return to china in an i t's yesterday. just masses $26.00 in the 1st 3 and a half witness. and document one of the most important the controversial period of history in hong kong and the chinese food and has been an icon of the critical boys of the authorities and chinese communist party as well. so it's close, show what mean like a really a really like setback for the press and also for the freedom of expression that they will definitely intensify the fear among the community specially i'm the national security at all. and what is it likely to mean for other journalists who
2:18 pm
are working in hong kong right now? the, the reason the repression on apple lady is just a one like incident in the serious off right now on the press industry in hong kong that a month ago that a public broadcasting hall county kate is like, i'm going a theory. mr. second, like we phone late after the gas min replacing the head off, they broadcast that they have taken down many like critical episodes and investigated reports from the broadcast. the and a journalist was convicted for the charges relating to an investigative report of the movement. so it's really like a chilling effect. it's really serious in hong kong, and among the journalists. see the kong in hong kong. thank you. germany's conservatives have adopted their joint program for september's national election in berlin, c d. u liter, i'm in law shit,
2:19 pm
and marcus oder from the bavarian sr. see su presented their manifesto, the promises tax relief and fiscal discipline. the critic say it is clear how the plan would be funded. the conservatives are leading in the polls lash at hope to replace angle american chancellor who is not running again. after 16 years in power . the chief political editor may look up there, followed the presentation of the election program. she joins us now. so mikaela tell us a little bit more about what is a head is what i'm in. last said, he's the man who's seen as the continuity candidates who works alongside america for a very long time. he says that it can't be done should no longer be possible in germany that there would be a renew from within. and the c d u program launch. the stands for a climate target to being climate neutral by 2045,
2:20 pm
but not really being very detailed when it comes to the small print ruling out. any tax rises at the same time. not really going into detail how projects, how investment should be funded in the future at the same time, routing out public debt. and those are the big question marks that hang over this is the general promise not to really hut anybody. and at the same time, want to take forward what is seen as a historic change. also launching into that huge industrial transformation that is taking place not just in germany, but also globally. and of course, you know, this climate issue is really an interesting one because you know, it's, it's one of the 1st of all, the most important issues in the election campaign. and it does, of course, one which is really also driven by the green party, which has gained a lot of game in recent months. so tell us, you know, this cd, you see a few plan. is this enough?
2:21 pm
well, they have declared their very own target off. the uncle of michael's government was basically basically forced to reassess their own climate targets by a constitutional court ruling. well, there's a great quote actually from this press conference, we're macos 3rd of the lead of the beverage in system parts. he said, we don't need the green to do green policy. we can do green policy ourselves, the less than he's learned in bavarian regional elections in the past. again, new real details and that also immediately drew criticism from an alina bad book, the greed leader, who said she simply wants to see the conserves his cd. you do the math, that's an interesting actually exchange of traditional roles here. talking about that i just like to ask you about the topic of gender equality. how much has that come up? for example, in this program? because, you know, of course the, the battle is to replace a female chancellor, the green party candidate, also a woman. and we just saw from the cdc,
2:22 pm
a few 2 men taking the stage. so how is that factoring and taught? well, the cd you has vowed to become more female and younger at the same time that that performance we saw that clearly also highlights an awareness issue because you 1st had 2 middle aged men taking the stage. then we had 2 women come and clean up those stages to, to hygiene standards and then you have 2 older men come on to stage and talk about the policy program. so clearly not have much awareness over how that comes across the cd has vowed to do something about it. and i mean, acid was also asked who would be in this top team. he said some names would pull bob's will be doing, will be counting how many women on that talk to you. she political editor and lucas, and are following all the latest developments for us as we head toward the september election in germany. thank you. mckayla. while it is
2:23 pm
a chapter of german history, that gets little attention, the fate of the 14000000 germans forced to flee eastern europe as the soviet army advanced. after decades of controversy over how to tell the stories, a new museum in berlin is now documenting their fate. key, taken in the rush with the hope to return home one day for every person forcibly displaced, there is a story, often a tragic one. and these are the stories, the new documentation center for displacement expulsion and reconciliation. and berlin wants to document and focus the fate of the 14000000 germans who had to leave their homes after world war 2. a controversial issue. the opening of the museum follows a decades long dispute because of one big question. read current and how can the displacement and expulsion of germans at the end and after the 2nd world war be
2:24 pm
presented without leaving the slightest doubt that this country is aware of its permanent responsibility for the german crimes of the 2nd world war and the murder of european jews, particularly in poland, there were fears that the germans would turn themselves into victims and thus divert attention from their guild during the nazi era. the exhibition solution context, context context. on the one hand, the context of politically ethnically and religiously motivated force migrations, primarily, and 20th century europe, but also beyond and on the other. the center contextualize is the fate of the 14000000 germans. as a consequence of the nazi policies of expansion and annihilation during world war 2 . but the intention is to not only look back, clobbered up to the team. i believe that these topics we're dealing with here affect all of humanity. it doesn't take much imagination to realize that these
2:25 pm
issues will continue to be historically relevant worldwide. a relevance that emerges from the exhibition, which highlights the crucial role of force migration in europe's recent history, but also how it still affects millions of people around the world to day. the at the euro 2020 football championship. italy have one group, a after beating whales, one middle in rome, though both sides qualified for the last 16 mateo pacino's score, the winner for the italians in the 1st half wales had ethan do sent off, but they still qualify after finishing 2nd in the group weight lifter laurel hubbard, will become the 1st transgender athlete to compete at the olympic games after being selected for the new zealand team. the 43 year old meets all the qualifying criteria, but her selection is controversial. neural hubbard has battled stigma and injuries
2:26 pm
to be paid for the olympic games, but having previously competed as a man, selection contrasts the everything please and against the idea of fairness, i can't believe it's only right. she gets a chance in tokyo. but i would like to take this opportunity to remind us all that are all has met all of their quite criteria. she is a very dedicated and resilient athlete. and on behalf of laura, i would like to say how only she is to be in the team and appreciative of the support and help she has received today. hubbard's testosterone levels, the below the maximum is set by the international olympic committee. but critics say she has numerous other unfair physical advantages. you can cancel trying to bring hearing. i mean with a getting about the anatomy, the foster, it's not so big organs. they have foster recovery. they have strong binds. they
2:27 pm
don't have children pills. they're less likely to get me an ankle injury. the list goes on and on and on. the cupboard is expected to be a medical contender in tokyo. any success and the debate. so the transgender athletes, competing in the female category, were only intensify. and with that now you're up to date on d. w. news on eric kelly in berlin. thanks for watching the news . the news. the news
2:28 pm
2:29 pm
oh, the against the corona virus pandemic now has the rate of infection in developing what measures are being taken, what does the latest research say? information and context, who's corrina? rizoto data and special monday to friday on d w. i. it's about billions. it's about our it's about the foundation of the world order. the
2:30 pm
new silk road. china wants to expand its employees with this trading that work also in europe. china is promised partners, rich can fit in europe. there's a sharp warning us, wherever accepts money from, the new superpower will become dependent on in china's gateway. year starts july 1st on dw me the, the more than 80 percent of our options remain unexplored. and here this shortly, important to us, they produce more than half of the wools, oxygen absorb carbon dioxide, and provide us with food join us this week. as we dive beneath the waves pure on
2:31 pm
the co, india, i'm sorry that are cool. let's start in the indian ocean to be a creature with its leathery skin and elongated body. found here may not impress every one, but it performs in essential service to the ocean. sea cucumbers, as they called a band from being hunted and sold in india because they considered to be critically indians by the butcher. still pre on them while the 4 important and what's being done to protect it. let's find out the under these 15 waters lies a strange creature that's creating quite a stir. not only in the local fishing town of monday, one of the sudden most of india, but all the way into the mainland and beyond 2 neighboring china.
2:32 pm
to see cucumber, this one can do up to 30 centimeters long conservation have been trying to study the marine teacher combos, cause the earth one of the see just like how one's at a farm was friend. the secret number please don't of ones in the seat, which means it helps to make the soil more for dial. and this is good for the c glasses and other associated organisms that live on the c c floor . i even don't want to call him about the over the last 4 years local, far as french officer has taken on the rule of protecting the cucumber. because if it's important ecological vote already. when the sea cucumbers excrete alkaline in nature and so with neutralizes the increasing acidity on the ccrpi, such as utilizes the coral rated underneath are saved from the trader bleaching
2:33 pm
when the coral reef is held. fish and roll crabs and other creatures tribe around in the ball. and so on the cucumber tribe will there be fish in the sea for our future generation to support them or the other will make the trip to the sea. cucumbers began when demand for them started soaring, mostly in china. dry t cucumber. no one especially man, is a popular delicacy and also considered an aphrodisiac. as a result, pushing in india has increased 13 fold over the last 5 years. we're going to a local area, you know, we'll get lots of young people involved in the right. one in the model is very misleading in people. it is saying that like only go to jail for $5.00 to $10.00 days, and then do come out and, and the case would be try this week, but to event conducted by the forest departmental. and we have reiterated for that . and this is a highly respects the punishment is similar to the crime of hosting a tiger or an elephant punishment. getting more, i did the quote on
2:34 pm
a punishment by the to see cucumber is listed under the wildlife protection act as a schedule one species, which means the punishment could go from fines of to laughter. piece about 2000 years, up to date time. the forest officials patrol the area checking for the contraband, and also teaching people in the villages about the consequences of getting caught. some form reporters have learned a lesson, spoke to one who wishes to remain anonymous. whether you got a case by the way, i once got caught on halting the told me that the punishment would be between 3 to 7 years, imprisonment and elders in my community and decided that it was wrong to do this when it's illegal. so we decided that we would stick to catching fish, or monday, or even if you come back get gotten on natalie, and we'd take them out and return them to the la are there that the non gaap if and
2:35 pm
the load or the but this hasn't been even for the fishing commune, who have traditionally fish cucumber for their own need, the balance which came in 2001 has affected your life. not even efficiency, only fish will see could come out of certain natalie around, you know, we could still dive in the sun to do all the stronger armies every now and again, they were allowed to see this. they could sell the 100 grouping, and i would, i just want to hear it, which would buy down the amount of knowledge. i don't know like i was, i bought a margin. it's a complex problem with the seat, you cumber, in the middle of it all. as far as officers like the fish are able to protect the animals by keeping an eye out for poachers. the customer read ecosystem has a better shot at surviving,
2:36 pm
and the local fishermen could get back their livelihoods. the ocean offers a wealth of delicious food for people around the world. but at the moment when taking too many fish out of the c $2.00 to $3.00 times more than can be sustainably provided according to some estimates. but there are things we can do to cut back and take better care of the entire marine ecosystem. the after the whole debate about meat and dairy farming and its consequences, seafood has come on the greater scrutiny. global production of sea food has quadrupled over the past 50 years, while autism and subsistence fishing used to be the norm. industrial grade wild capture, has dominated, over the past decades. the un estimates a 3rd of all the food might be over fished. we emptying the oceans at an alarming
2:37 pm
rate, and not only that, the way we fish and dangers other marine animals and in ecosystem seafood sustainability is a very touchy subject where everybody i spoke to said, you know how complicated seafood is, but i found out there is sort of seaford, you can eat with a relatively good conscience if you follow some rules of them. the 1st question need to ask yourself if your why fi food is, is this species endangered? for some super clear cut? so if you could avoid booth into notes if she restaurants, in other places, we stoop. and the 2nd is another species, most commonly in which there are many different species within that category. many different types of feel, but for them, for the vast majority of them, they're in pad straits. what will you do not need? that's ryan bigelow, who has been working for the database c food watch for over 10 years. greenpeace
2:38 pm
has a red list of fish, fish in the wilder the endangered. this is quite a blanket list if you want to dig into exactly which fish stock is endangered, where you can turn to databases for more precise information. one of the best known is the sea food watch program. it scientifically assesses and lists thousands of species and their sustainability status. why recommendations are very, very specific to types of fisheries. how healthy is this population of this session? if you're trying to catch, you're trying to catch a tune up. how many of those 2 are last? are you catching shark secretion? things you don't want. are you impacting that natural environment? or there are rules in place to get those species, but there is quite a bit of difference depending on how and where it's caught. so let's talk about how these fish are caught. fishing methods using large industrial grade gear and marine environments often cause the most damaged. number one is bottom trolling
2:39 pm
way huge units. the height of buildings and the length of football field sky, with the ocean floor, causing vast amounts of bycatch. catching and killing other non target fish and endangered animals. this often happens when fishing for bottom dwelling fish like ache or flounder. it also homes, it, this is what the, the bed looked like before and after bought into number 2 is long lines fishing, which targets big species like turn swordfish. these lines can be miles long and have thousands of hawks causing again by chance. depending on where you live, you can get information on fishing methods on the packaging. so of course fishery sustainability point of view, we would absolutely benefit from having more selective deer. this is mina eps, who's responsible for the protection of marine and polar environments at the r u. c . n. and as previously worked for the marines stewardship council, most elective means targeting the species you want more accurately,
2:40 pm
like rod and reel fishing or harpooned in or kaufman. you can also use special hooks in long lining called circle hooks that don't immediately kill non targeted fish or other marine animals. so what about found fish like this? salmon catching wild fish used to be the dominant way to get to fish. but aquaculture sea food production has recently overtaken wildcats. its growth accelerated mostly by farms in china, india and indonesia. but farming big fish in open pens and marine environments has its own host of problems. many found fish like salmon are mostly carnivals, meaning they need to be fed fish estimates very, but around 10 to 20 percent of all wild caught fish may have been used to feed on the food on top of that,
2:41 pm
if the fish farms are not managed well, pesticides antibiotic, food ways as well as fish excrement, can poison the environment. the spread of diseases to and from wild populations, as well as parasites are also major problems. but omnivorous fish like tilapia, carp, catfish open, gazes, can manage well be found most sustainably. they can eat plant based feed and can be found in big upon the lakes in a more natural environment. but sustainable management is still the exception in emerging and developing countries where aquaculture is concentrated. the most sustainable form of agriculture is shellfish, farming, like mussels, oysters or clams. they require a little feed filter, the water and i was very fast growing. so if you want to be on the safe side, that's the phone to go forth with one exception, farm trim and pro, and a lot of which contributes massively to environmental degradation,
2:42 pm
not to mention social injustice. i know that large a large percentage, if not most shrimp is red rated and the industry has some serious problems. so one way we are told that we can make sure that the food we eat is not responsible for all of these problems is to look out for certification. these the marines stewardship council label m. s. c, long seen as the gold standard of sustainable wild chord seafood. then there's the aquaculture stewardship council label ac. all the dolphin safe to no label. let's have a look at the m s. c. it's the most widely accepted certification covering about 15 percent of the market. this ones because it's a little interesting. so it has the m s. c. label on it even says it's 100 percent sustainable, but it's cool with bottom trolling. how does that do it together?
2:43 pm
basically, we don't consider only the guess like to determine whether or not sustainability as possible. a fishery will have some level of interest. this is michael marriott, m s c, program manager for africa, middle east and south asia. the question is whether or not that impact can be managed within tolerable limits. the m s. c looks at the 3 principles, whether the targeted stock is over fished, what impact the fishing has on the why the ecosystem and the strength of the fisheries management. but the m s. c has seen criticism, for example, for certifying fisheries with a high percentage of bycatch. when these fisheries has, by chance, maybe they may need to report it, but they can just throw it overboard without anyone knows. this is frank bion, who co, also the study on the controversy surrounding the marine stewardship council. have been observations that several doctors did not scrupulously comply with an
2:44 pm
