women in asia, i me all the money and i mentioned that the voices, the only way i can be got is to create my own empire this weekend on d. w. i basically did up the news a show coming up today of god's face uncertainty as the thought of and becomes more assertive. the medicine group continues to capture district without much of a fight international. meanwhile, carry on with their withdrawn leaving a security void. we look at the ordinary guns caught in the middle class a look at the role of neighboring pockets on it has the influence over the pallet, bonds. but what does it using this influence for

the use i'm trying to do welcome to did up the news asia. glad you could join us. over the weekend, i've gone government troops in the north of the country, abandoned their posts and fled to me. but just on the reason a valuable advance, they felt they were ill equipped to a pause. it's a pattern playing out across the country with the valley, but now controlling some one 3rd of the countries, $421.00 districts. these gains come as international troops continue to pull out from the country a scenario the theft, many of the guns worried about the future. these afghan people are determined to leave the country. that's why thousands of them have gathered at this passport, office and capital cobble trying to find a way out their future has become too uncertain. as the fact of the

us troops withdrawal stars to unfold from all the districts of fallen. there's not a single district without fighting the tale. bon, have even reached the chief of police, his office and provincial capitals. i've come here to get my passport and get out of afghanistan. it's not safe here. many embassies have registered a dramatic increase in the number of visa and passport applications. as the tale bon advances, people fear the hard one progress over the past 2 decades will start to roll back. women and girls, for example, went from near total exclusion from public life to being able to work and study and make schools today. now these gains hanging in the balance. very recently, we have reports that just districts that have been taken over by the taliban. they have already imposed restrictions on women on media. for instance,

women are in the ha, reportedly not allowed to leave the house without a male chaperone clinics have been closed. there's also reports of media blackout. this is happening despite the tale bonds promises that the public has nothing to fear and the situation could intensify. the group has already made significant territorial gains in the past month. has gone, forces struggling to hold them off. now our people thinking, if our government can not to control the situation, maybe the civil war will restart. so that's the main problem. why people trying to go abroad. those who couldn't afford a visa, a seeking to leave illegally. many of them are young people.

they're about to cross the border to iran before embarking on further journeys, hoping to secure a better future one second of all gone citizens that's particularly concerned about the future audits women. and from what i'm, that i'm joined by. i shall, horror, i'm a law student at auburn university and a former gone youth representative to the un. i ship nearly 50 percent of of got tons, population is women. how worried are they about life under possible taliban influence? well, if we look at the rapids and i'm conditional withdrawal of the troops and men of the nature troops which all from a gun. so we can see that the slightest hope for peace also vanished. and right now there is a wind with mentality on the ground and are getting more than it's leaving

a lot of people, not only women, but all i've done is worried about what is to go now the future of the peace process, the future on and the younger generation is, it's all in and then big question. both i live on as you correctly point out have rapidly advanced across the country from what you was getting. can you describe for us what the situation is, particularly for women in the area that they control women right now women living and some of the district, their situation was relatively bitter sense and 2001. however, there is a huge gap of opportunity and facility when it comes to urban areas of their religious success and they're really terms of security. their progress has even in the far as districts of again it was something to be preserved and protected. and

right now i'm talking about are getting more territory as the government, as st. silence about it and not withdrawing responsibly. it makes women more fight and of what is to come right now. we're no guarantee on the future that we could look forward to that. we're also getting reports that the taliban are being welcomed in some of the areas that they are capturing. what explains this support for the color bon? well, in some of the district that are right now, and it told a bunch control over the years when get were it strikes and they were the what crime committed by south and get them in the international community. it really created this, this sense of keep people that they could rely on

community on the people who are from the communities who are riding against the government. but there's not pretty going to do you mean you are supporting the job as you, you see in the past 20 year as a condition was raised in this conflict. now get you forgot what this where even started at the beginning of the 1st place. and right now we are fighting even not knowing for what reason. so some of the people are even joining one or another side just for the sake of survival. talk to me a bit about the conservative nature of outcome society. i mean, how much of a priority is go to education, a women's participation in politics, for example, among the general population. well, in 20 years ago when you're not nice for you to make the transition and i was one year old born and partial and i returned to i've got

a son after 2001 with my family. i was a child, i grew up here. i went to school a wrench junior at university and you see that back then when everything started from, from the very beginning we were building from the criteria. we're building from the ashes. there was a lot of people come to me and women who were in the society, but today everything is in question including the future elements indication and then was cancer and go and the increase by then. but beside that, even during the peace process, the language about the human rights and the rights of women in peace against it was a big risk. and that was a very concerning point for one of them. and i should call them or leave it. there was time being with thank you so much for joining us today. and of some type of artist on has long been seen as having influence over the poly bon for that prison

pockets and involvement in the peace process is seen. it's crucial to its outcome relation between pakistan on the taliban go way back. the group itself was formed in the early ninety's, primarily by partially students in pakistan, but just as or the stomach religious schools back if i was one of only 3 countries that recognize the thought about when a group of gun is done between 19962001. and in the last few years, artist on has played a key role in bringing the poly bonds to the talk stable a melissa, corresponding show there, july, the introductory and packet on should say, aside from pakistan to influence over the polar bond, what is driving pockets on me engagement with the i've gone piece process, bridge the conventional wisdom around the world that because of focused on some deep involvement in upper understand over the last decade and it's closer to the

dollar. bon bonded and seen as the bug sounds. but what we're heading now from august on the army leadership is that losing in the fall of on last week, the focused on your me to you. and i was briefing abandoned of parliament duty and. and they were told that they don't have as much influence. but thought upon as people seem to think and there's growing in the but in focused on that if things go haywire, next door focused on will be really difficult time. so we've also heard from other things like the practice group in washington last week. they are also saying that it may not be as much as we can really think the thing. so it's an open question. how much dawn can really delta live on in terms of coming to peace negotiations or renouncing violence? what are the filtering part on that if i've gotten it done,

does not go down the piece route as it what will happen? what would be the effect on focus on so, you know, analysts, german lift thing, thanks. i've been saying for quite a while now that we are headed for a very difficult period in the region. but now you're getting it from army leadership from political leadership. the biggest bond getting more and more get it free, eventually taking over and then focused on also facing a problem in terms of the focused on each other on becoming more active. you're not already bought the evidence that focused on stripe and the next to a on a on dollar bond and picking up faith and activity. so the big period there would be more money to pocket on and on and on. does send

into gales and, and arky and civil war. there will be more refugees. the country already has 3000000 records, and there will be people coming across the board. so those are the major feels at the moment. what is the thinking and bucket funds? are there does a packet on believe the taliban should be a part of any in tell him government in afghanistan for instance, officially focused on the tap. no favorite. it believe that whatever happens to be on own lawn lead. but we know from focused on deep involvement without a bond that we delivered on the bond, for example, for negotiation. but the us that would prefer bond voting. i mean, we have to recognize that dollar bond or no, an internationally recognized entity the us agreement with them boxed on iran, india. i've been getting with them and you know, have posted them so they didn't even leave it there for the time. mean,

but thank you so much for this update from graduate practice on and that's it for today is of course more information on the situation and honest on, on our website. it every dot com forward slash a show. and you can actually follow us on social media, on facebook, and twitter as well, going back tomorrow at the same time with them about the, the interest, the global economy, our portfolio, d, w, business b on here's a closer look at the project. i wouldn't ship to analyze the flight for market dominance with w business beyond on youtube. can you hear me now?

counts monumental novel, the tower is $100.00 german must a compelling tale off the east german experience. that one, the german book prize, now of 40 i am has big plans for the african are seen again a and writer filmmaker and art historian has initiated multiple projects to showcase the diversity of african art or from an online pan, african cultural encyclopaedia of arts, and culture to her own debut novel, which has just appeared here in germany. she's changing the narrative of how a vast continent perceives itself. none of a for you is on the moon. we caught up with the experts for african art at the you art center in dockman, where she is planning and exhibition of contemporary art from ghana. i'm from one

pos that well which are cultural expressions and ways of being and seeing what extent suppressed. and i think my mission in a way is to bring these back to the forefront and show the value again so that we have this fullness of being moved between culture is that she was born in germany. but today, the granddaughter of the guinea and king lives across her story of the migration provided the background for her debut novels that the god child child very much still the colonial hang up. you know, parents said to us, especially when you grew up in europe and abroad, you know, you always have to be better than them in order to be taken half seriously. you have to speak better, you have to be more intelligent. you have to walk. it's very much, you know, we have to still fight and prove ourselves to be equal in the novel, she is my,

the only black girl and in 1970 neighborhood being perceived as different as a defining experience. her father is a doctor, her mother, a princess who challenges preconceptions with an immense pride in her origins. you know, we're always preparing to go home. europe was always a short stop. it was never the end goal. so no, that wasn't the sense that europe was bad at all. it was always like home is where we belong. that's why we're going. we've come here to get an education so that we can go home and, you know, make it better, make a life event. at 1st maya has no concept of homeland. she shuttles between locations. this book london, a convent school and she learned the code that the european world until one day her cousin cojo arrived and sparks her enthusiasm for the history. traditions and spiritual rituals of donna de decide to rewrite the book of their ancestors. it was

also a metaphor for that which had been lost. and i know that a lot of my generation felt this gap between us are grandparents, gaps of knowledge, gaps, knowing how to do things. you know, that happened dances that parents can do without dances that speak, that we just don't know the know those follow the rhythms of the canadian drums that some in the ancestor stories into the present. it also depict, gone as colonial past, the stolen art treasures, the loss of identity. maya comes to see herself as a part of a country that has to recover soap and go with them way. like her alter ego, i. e mm. as reclaiming the history of her country using clerk for years, she's been bringing it into the everyday lives of finance with a mobile museums project. i think the colonial have made and south so it's kind of

claim this space within our history. and what i'm trying to do in a way saying, well, actually that's all of this multiplicity, there's all this. well, there's all this richness in evolution, in our cultural evolution. and we don't have to keep reducing it to the captain. she uses art for transformation outside, gone to in 2019. she curated the countries 1st ever pavilion at the venice b. m. alec a major triumph that she fought hard for and even tougher process is towards the restitution of artifacts stolen during the colonial era. on behalf of the canadian culture ministry, she's involved in dialogue with european museums. i was a lot of questions that came up around recitation the beginning was, we give them back the tech will they know how to look after them? went champ, apart from, you know, the obvious in cells and racism, implied in that question on the surface. you know,

this whole kind of civilizing colonizing mindset is still completely prevalent. even in those museum directors that are willing to have conversations with us, that deigning to speak to us. and until this is shifted it's for me, it's a bit of an empty jess. there are a multitude of historical wrongs to put right. not for you. novel says that god, children do exactly that is travelling through time and hearing the whisperings of the universe ah, in the other culture news, damien hirst, and also to the blur of the contemporary art world, is best known for his provocative pieces featuring dead animals in formaldehyde. from way back in the 90s, but a new exhibition in paris offers an unexpected explosion of joy and color with his cherry blossom series. it's seen as

a natural progression of his earlier spot painting work and a homage to 19th century impressionism and point to live them over show features 30 work from a larger series that took in 3 years to complete and signals a return to paint her says his vision only got bolder with repeated pandemic delays and a collection of paintings by american pop arts pioneer andy warhol is on show in tehran for the 1st time clinic portraits of mick jagger, marilyn monroe, and jackie kennedy and aversion of war hole famous campbell. 2 cans are in the spotlight to the delight of visitors. the paintings have been lying dormant in the store room of the museum of contemporary art into around since the islamic revolution in 1979. well now to the work of photographers zach fun be young, who grew up in south africa, where he graduated top of his class at the national college of photography event,

emigrated to europe, and spent some time as a commercial photographer before his urge to get a fresh look at nature made him see read the my name is zach someone young and i'm a photographer. i'm currently working on my modernized necessaries, which is photographed in, in for the photographer, uses the technique to create a real image world like this one, the fall. it turns pain can rate changing the natural environment almost into some kind of alien territory. and subtle greens from the trees become more dominant. the 1st house on zacks and 1000000000 is out hunting for subjects. he grew up in south africa, but he's lived in switzerland for many years now. in 2009, he conducted his 1st experiments with infrared photography that has concentrated on

the technique ever since. in color photography, we capture the visual spectrum that is blue, green and red. in infrared, we capture near infrared light as well. chlorophyll in plans absorb the visual spectrum to use this for focusing pieces. and the cell walls on the other hand refer to mere infrared lights, and this reflected energy creates these vivid pinkson reds. zacharon 1000000000 has exhibited this works around the world. currently, his infrared photos are on display and sophomore, and many of them were taken here in the area. after he made the move from south africa to europe in 2004, he started working as a commercial and fashioned photographer. now he's got clients the world over the years,

but his own creative projects are where his heart is. the search for motifs in nature is an experience in itself. more than half the world's population, all born and thirties, and all these people are no longer in sync with nature. but rather with like phones and devices. i want to attract these city dwellers and subconsciously remind me of called the real nature of that. i will be walking in the mountains and a view like this will present it to me and i'll be without words. i cannot live without this, and i don't see as having a future without nature. some people may dream of going to mars, but all it takes to see the other worldly beauty of a red planet right here is a slight color shape. ah,

ah. oh, finally, anyone wanting to gain a better understanding of the former communist? if germany is well advised to read over 10 times novel, the tower fits into raised and in south eastern germany, it recreates the atmosphere of the late phase of the country. so just before the fall of the berlin wall and the book, one several prizes and was also adapted for a tv film. but as we purists like to say, nothing quite nails. it like the original. what would you do if you saw a police officer reading and kicking their mother? what if you were held back and forth to watch? be down as a teenage boy, when he says mother attacked her protesting against the east german regime. it's october 1989, just weeks before the fall of the berlin wall. but no one knows yet the communism is about to crop cushion as the tragic hero and author over telecoms novel,

the tower. it's about 3 generations in a family of intellectuals who despise both communist east germany, where they live and the capital is to west. they're the type of smug elite who aren't even supposed to exist in the so called workers paradise. they live a life torn between resistance and resignation. and it's especially hard on the youngest of them. cuz tends uncle warned him not even to fall in love me. they kiss you and they betray you both in the same breath. it doesn't have to be like that, but sometimes it is. and you can't take any more risk. it's about time you started to learn, but in this country, you can't behave like a little child with countries, not the place to be young. no author has ever described east germany. so free of illusions. if the last glance at the grand allies that many people relied on to make sense of there was this howard was overtaken. breakthrough has 1000 page

breakthrough. that one, him, the german ah, an enthusiastic recommendation. there are so many good books for that never ending summer reading low stand with that all the rest from us here in berlin until next time, and cheers. just the me with the news.
