done as each day brings fresh bloodshed. government forces said they've quote, liquidated dustin's rioters in clash a set of also claimed the lives of several police. oh gosh, buying the group. well, you have to understand, this is 30 years of pent up anger that's been released. look you are there shooting at all of us was host, but none of us wants to hurt anyone. human on less than 3 years and power to chi was the chosen successor to autocrat northville ton or so by if to chi, if his vow to wipe out so culture his groups which he blames for the uprising number as he fights for his political survival somewhere the protest could lead to an air of even harsher or authoritarianism. so let's bring in joanna less a cause exxon based journalist and the author of dark shadows inside the secret
11:05 am
world of kazakhstan, a welcome. joanna and official figures from it because exxon government are pointing to dozens of debts, many of them civilians. we know communication to the country has been difficult. can you tell us what your sources are telling you about the current situation? well, the current situation certainly seems to be a basic that's what's on my. so this is telling me communications extremely difficult because there is a virtual communications blackout with the can't say that certainly people can't access at the internet. and the occasional text message is coming. sources are saying that the violence continues, that the, the bloodshed continues, that the, the mood is ugly. and you know that, that, that there was a lot of concerned about how the situation will develop. as you mentioned, president supplies taking unexplained the hard line to say, why, why 5, what he's pulling terrorists. although it's not like the the what,
11:06 am
what that means, what the aims of the terrorists are. they are the power it. so it's very situation, but certainly it looks as if fortunately there is more bloodshed ahead of night falls on because of this evening. it looks as if it will be more scenes of violence and more death. and indeed, the president has been saying that those who fail to surrender will be quote, destroyed. and it doesn't sound promising for any prospect of negotiations with the protesters. i know negotiations with the test as are absolutely not on the agenda. i mean, we can see that from president supplies remarks today. now, i mean in fact it, there is really no one for him to negotiate with. because this is such a desperate group of protests because one of the problems that we haven't done is that over the years, all the time that the bus was wiped out. so there is no one for no one to need
11:07 am
protest. but from the point of view of the government, that was a name if you like. but now of course there is no want to negotiate with that. would just simply all these, this protest is an angry people and certainly violent elements who, who have infiltrated to be what started as a process. so it's really problematic on it. and it also is obvious that president of is not in the news for any kind of negotiations. and this means that that so the confrontation is completely inevitable. you've traveled to every corner of context on, in your work covering it for over 15 years. have you been surprised by the size and the violence of these protests? well, on the one hand, i think it's fair to say that i have been surprised in the sense that we've never seen anything like this and has a son and it's 30 years of independence. i myself have lived there for 17 years and
11:08 am
we certainly never seen anything on this scale. as on the other hand, i'm not the sides because what the testers came out to kind of grievance. they said they were voicing or voicing things that i myself have been writing about for many years, but the government hasn't been listening to them. now these include social, so we can all make grievances and a feeling that the rule is because it's accountable to the people the best isn't that the rule is not the people that come up shouldn't rise. that the people to benefit from the oil wealth of the country, all of the grievances have been voice for years and cousins that publicly vocally some time when president came to how, when the bias resides,
11:09 am
maybe 3 years ago. now, people took to the street in that drove to say they wanted, they didn't want hands to assess the voice it on that they wanted a political voice. but unfortunately the government didn't listen to them. and now we use all we're seeing a massive out pulling all public indeed does seem to be an ugly mood, as you've told us, journalist joanna louis, we're going to leave it there. thank you so much for coming on to d. w. news. meanwhile, here in germany, corona virus case loads remain high with 55000 new infections, reported in the past 24 hours at 35 percent more and a week ago. and it has prompted a online summit of political leaders to consider further measures to tackle the highly infectious omicron variance as covert infections rallies in germany. there are fee, as the micron variant could put to greater strain on key infrastructure, like the emergency services, the biggest headache for ambulance police and fire cruise could come not from the
11:10 am
infections themselves. or micron seems to cause less severe disease than the delta variant of infected people. and even their contacts have to isolate in large numbers and might not be enough personnel to do with sensual jobs. the health minister has a plan you told me of and as we're minimizing the risk, but we're moving in the direction of having a very safe solution. and at the same time, keeping the critical infrastructure viable. this is achieved by shortening the quarantine period and also the isolation period. but always ensuring that the p c r test guarantees that no one is still contagious, it is the month is no hon stick. and currently those with all micron have to quarantine for 14 days. the proposals could reduce that to 10 days, or even just a week if the patient tests negative it's not only in health care or the emergency services that absent stuff could cause a big problem. some fear,
