when the bill passed, she had relatively quickly send sarah ed tweedy and saying we don't like the law. we think it's against european values. but obviously, as she sort of goes with the flow also from the line sees how strong international reactions are now. how strong the direction to the decision of we thought it was regard to munich is and she's off course 13 of the europe minutes yesterday. put out a very strong worded letter saying that we condemn this in the strongest possible words. and this can simply not stand up. so she understood that of course, this means more than just another little infringement by hungering, scraping away at your genes democracy. but this is another real, real sort of knock against the european solidarity and values.

and that she really has to take action and take this to court. this is eventually what will happen. what about the laws so controversial? barbara is the controversial thing. it doesn't really come show itself so quickly because you look at it, it just says that if there is no l g b t q content a content to be distributed to youngsters. that means to young people under 18. and the gary and government argues that this is just all about the right of parents to determine the sexual education of the children. but looking more closely at what it means is you could never again show a gay or lesbian happy couple. in a tv series or think of advertising, so the consequences would be quite far reaching and also in is important. in the same regulation, p to files are mentioned to l g b t q. people are sort of tainted by linguistic proximity. and that is something

that in brussels, everybody more or less no, says is absolutely not possible. i can stand up. it is again european values. it is discriminatory. that's the eas position. but the bottom line, barbara is, this is not the 1st time on gary and prime minister, victor, oregon, and his government have rus russell, the brussels feathers, so to speak. so far they've not been able to take him have bay. so i mean, what ammunition do they really have in their arsenal? that is the big problem. sorry. they don't really, really have weapons against somebody who seems to be b. c. aging. really like in an open warfare in europe and it's contracts and values and agreements and it's, it's, it's basically it's, it's democracy really because it keeps on provoking. and he sort of turns to school week after week after week, i haven't counted the number of infringement procedures that is already up and

running again hungry. the amount of verdict that the european court has spoken against hungary and in the end there is really not much to be done because the european contracts don't have a throw out clause. they don't have the don't give the legal leverage to sort of eliminate and kick out the country from the union. and therefore, they just still have to do that was because everybody says, says, says if you sort of hit him at the money, if you turn his money off, then you can get his attention. and then he might do something to change this. but we're not at that point yet. it is very difficult. legally, again, hungry, of course, one of the biggest beneficiaries of those funds. barbara hazel, with a view from from brussels. thank you so much, barbara. and here's a look at some other stories making headlines around president elect either him or you see has delivered his 1st public speech since his election victory. he said

a rapid corona virus vaccination campaign will be his government's immediate concern. the country has confirmed more than 83000 deaths from over 19 or yeah, show us senate republicans have blocked an election reform bill. democrats said that the law is needed to counter increasingly restrictive voting rules in many parts of the country. but republicans say that the bill infringes on states rights and could allow widespread fraud. mr. majority lead the united nations as that to warn of irreversible damage is global temperatures continue to ride. the report by the us climate change panel is due out next year. it says deadly heat waves could affect hundreds of millions of people by mid century. the hong kong pro democracy newspaper apple daily will stop operating tonight, silencing the city's most china, critical media outlets. the closure comes after authorities grows the papers,

assets sweeping new national security law. national security, police have also arrested employees of the paper including its founder. the capital is decision to stop operations has increased concerns about a version of media, freedom and other rights. and the chinese real city journalists say that they plan to print a 1000000 copies of the final edition overnight. and let's get more we're trying to buy correspondence. few because who has the view from hong kong? so you'd be, tell us several staff members of the new newspaper have been arrested as we've heard what led to this decision to actually stop publishing now? well now actually standing outside the headquarters of daily many employees just rushed back to the office to count on the final hours of these 26. your new paper in hong kong and per your question. that why trigger what, what elements?

the closure of apple id that we have to like go back to last week like 1st 5 editorial south and also executives off the newspaper were arrested under the national security law. 2 of them were charged for collusion with foreign forces after what and then like the fort off, the next teacher told the parent company off apple. they have decided that they may have to close the newspaper by the saturday, but it's closer comes earlier that you actually saw the operating sign from midnight tonight that to check us by another arrest on a column. this for echo daddy who wrote for the tutorial commentary articles fall for apple tv and he was arrested for the same charge on the nationalist regional. some journalist toasts told us that this is one of the factors that the company and

management decided to close and shut down the newspaper earlier than expected to be . what more can you tell us about the journalists who have been arrested so far? they're like saying since last week, executives and also call them those. and the editorial staff arrested under the national security law. basically, the hong kong authorities accused with a staff of clothing, a foreign forces by urging is national sanctions like by publishing thousands of printed and online articles. so those articles, i kind of the africans of the also offense that they have committed an additional li like the companies for apple daily including it's printing and internet companies were also charged with entities under the national, secure. so. so that's directly prom, the closure off. absolutely. because since then,

the management company couldn't see with any kind of banking operation, not even payroll to the south. so that's why it leads to that, that all that is supposed to be because in hong kong, thank you. will taliban fighters in afghanistan are currently seizing more and more territory as a september 11th deadline for us troops to leave the country approaches. according to reports, the taliban have even made it to the border of the city of mazar, e sharif. in the north of the country were soldiers of the german bond is fair, are still stationed. around 700 troops remain on the ground. they are meant to be pulled out of the country by the end of june. german special forces are increasingly worried about the recent development and the implications for their withdraw for afghanistan. it's the quiet before the storm here in the city of conduce ask our security forces on watch. as the sound of small arms fire creeps

closer, the taliban is steadily gaining territory, taking district after district situation and congress is very bad. it's insecure. there are so many wounded people in hospital. you hands off on the invoice is sounding the alarm. more than 50 about the dentist and $370.00 districts have fallen since the beginning of may. most districts have been that have been taken. surround provincial capitals suggesting that the taliban are positioning themselves to try and take these capitals. once foreign forces are fully withdrawn. us president joe biden's mid april announcement that all international troops will be withdrawn by september. same what lions calls a seismic tremor through afghan politics and society. the withdrawal decision was expected, but its speed with the majority of troops now already withdrawn,

was not all actors have had to adjust to this new reality that is unfolding lions set up the adjustment has many more suffering for the people of afghanistan recounting a number of attacks, including the killing of 100 young women students in cobble in may as she will and increased conflict meant greater and security for many other countries, both in the region and elsewhere on the world's powers are gathering here in berlin for a new push to secure a lasting peace deal and libya in the talks lead by germany of the u. s. leaders will be discussing their pledges to withdraw foreign fighters from the north african country. they also want to ensure the war torn states stays on track toward december general elections. libya has been unstable since they need backed uprising, toppled long time dictate or more marked off in 2011 oil rich country was divided

between a un supportive government and the capital and rival authorities faced in the country fee for a transitional government took power early. this year, german foreign minister hika mosse that many challenges still lie ahead in the pursuit for a stable libya. not for a moment, linda. this is the mom more mar, duffy. virgil rain kept libya together for 40 years. in 2011 protest against his rule quickly grew into a country wide rebellion, and september 2011. gadhafi was captured and killed by militia group. the country soon fell into chaos. psalms groups that had been active against his regime, refused to disband, and regional rivalries grew election failed to bring the country together. and soon rival governments were set up in the western eastern parts of the country. the

general national record in tripoli was recognized by many western countries. lead yes, but it had little power over much of the country. the rival government into brooke in the east was allied with a faction called libyan national army, led by strong men funding for the 2 sides, and attended multiple piece conferences and europe and continued to fight. meanwhile, people smugglers took advantage of the lawlessness to use libya as a transit route, bringing migrants and refugees to libby as mediterranean coast. the european union cut deals with libyan forces to try and keep margaret back, leaving hundreds of thousands stranded in the country. in january 2020, the 2 warring sides came to berlin. along with the number i have international leaders to try to come to an agreement and foreign involvement also with the san.

finally, in october 2020, the warring sides agreed to cease fire in all areas of libya. a un resolution help stabilize the conflict by making the boat in agreement legally binding for its members on the international level. all and all this lead to the formation of an interim gina t government that set to stay in place until the elections planned in december of this year. and germany's deputy foreign minister niels on and spoke about the challenges that libya faces. he spoke with d. w a short while ago. there is a power struggle between several groups. i afraid that one of these groups could try to by caught the elections in december. it looks rather promising right now. it seems that everybody is accepting the electoral day, but there are many hundreds. we need to have a constitutional basis. it's not clear whether or not so it will be

a parliamentary or if it will be a presidential system. everybody seems to be armed in libya still, which remains the big topic. but yes, i am as diplomats used to say cautiously optimistic. you just mentioned the arms and other big top listed withdrawal of foreign troops and also mercenaries. what's germany's message to the countries that still have troops in the country? our message is trust one another. and our message is to all the countries involved. she made a promise at berlin, at the 1st conference in the presence of the drummond, chancellor, gala mack. so we need to rely on our partners and their political will and abilities that was documented in the berlin findings. and it was endorsed by clear language of the united nations security council. and it's the expectation of the libyan people. so i think it will be complicated, it's not going to be, you know, soft was one conference,

but we need to sequence the approach step by step. all the parties need to know that the other party is not taking advantage of a withdrawal of troops. there are also russian troops in the country. do you think that's a threat for the nato alliance? i think it's a point of concern that there are foreign troops and libya. so i don't want to pinpoint to just one party because it has always been our approach to address the presence of mercenary from both sides. but of course, nato countries are concerned about development and instability in general. but you know, what it's encouraging to see for me is in spite of the many arms that are still in libya and in spite of the fact that the arms and bible is getting violated almost on a daily basis to cease fire holds. so i believe that we can make a strong point also towards russia and turkey. that's a benefit from

a peaceful settlement of the conflict and libya for everybody. mister minister shape, thank you very much. and that was germany's deputy foreign minister speaking a short while ago to my colleague back in europe now. and concern is growing for at least 150000 europeans living in the u. k. and tens of thousands of britons residing in the you who are on the verge of being classes, undocumented migrants in another post present, fall out. they were expected to lose their citizens rights, including to work, study and rent a property. well, some could even face for patient because they haven't applied for post greg residency schemes in the countries where they are living. a number of those schemes are closing next week. if get more on this, i am joined by my colleague alex forest whiting. so, i mean, i thought citizens rights were supposed to be something that was resolved and breaks it. yes, truly they want, but we have to remember that each country has its own immigration policies. and

some countries such as the u. k and france has very tough rules in place. so yes, it was agreed that europeans were living in the u. k. am borton's who are living in countries across the e. u. would be given the right to remain after breakfast, which of course happened at the end of last year, as long as they registered in time. and as you said, for many of those countries, those cut off dates or next week. now take u. k. for example, there are several, many in europeans living there. many have applied for so called settled status, but there are still 400000 cases that is still outstanding. and on top of that, around about 150000 people who haven't even applied. and that could mean that they lose their rights. and it's warring many campaigners they wouldn't be able to rent, they wouldn't be able to access health care. they wouldn't be able to open the bank

accounts or start a new job. they are even at risk of duplication. we have an absolute catastrophe in the making catastrophe in the making. and how about for breadth who are living in the you will, it does depend where you're living. but if we take, for example, france, which as i said before, has a similar immigration policy to the u. k. it's looking pretty tough. there are britons who've been living in france for decades. they are fully integrated. they've been living that legally. they may be married to french, people have french families, and i've absolutely no idea that they to should be registering and have not registered. and could also be about to lose their rights. so the campaign group british in europe is very concerned about this. and is also frustrated that a number of e u government have not communicated this well enough to go out and find these people, the phone rouble, who have absolutely no idea what's about,

happened to them. and you have to do what you can. this is a moral obligation on the member states, not just to make sure that people know what they right. so essentially those rights unless they take an action and that's what started. so what does happen next? while these campaign groups are pleading for leniency from governments across the board and the netherlands has already said, look because of kobe $819.00, we will extend our registration scheme until the end of the year. the u. k. has just said that they're about to send out $28.00 day notice is to people to remind them that they to have to register. so people will get a few more weeks. that's not for a long bow and the french government, so far we've heard nothing more from so it doesn't mean that these people could face having their lives complete key turned upside down. alex forest whitening. thank you so much. i'll finally, his allegations have been shaking turkish politics. said that peg are a convicted,
