smart new solutions over steam set in our ways, or is truly unique. and we know that, that uniqueness is what allows us to live and survive. google ideas, the environmental c global 3000 on d, w, and online i did up there in years, asia coming up today, genocide against me, and modest romania minority. that's what the united states is now calling the depression. this muslim community has faced in the mark with hundreds of 1000, still living as refugees and neighboring bung. lavish with the new u. s. assessment. change things on the ground for them, plus opposition groups, friend and got it asi, i'm presenting an envoy to me and modest military dictatorship. can the move help resolve the countries year long crisis?

and we take in a new documentary that's breaking records in taiwan revolution to fall times tell the story of the 2019 mc beijing protest in hong kong. d. w speaks with the firms director who lives under threat and with an exiled activist for whom the screening is not an hey . i british manager, welcome to the dublin news, a shirt ledger could join us. you are a secretary of state. antony blinked and says me and mars wrangler muslims have suffered genocide at the hands of the military. he served the assessment was made based on interviews of throwing gear refugees in neighboring bundle. others. that is where more than 700000 minority or india muslims had to flee to after the me and my home are launched a violent crack down against them in august 2017. 0,

the trauma experienced by the ranger is undeniable. the flight of hundreds of thousands after the military attack them is well documented. but the decision by the us to use the term genocide to describe the violence inflicted on these people is a watershed moment. beyond the holocaust, the united states has concluded the genocide was committed 7 times today march the as i have determined that members of the burmese military committed genocide and crimes against humanity against religion. the u. s. took the step after hearing the testimony of more than $1000.00 ranger refugees, based in camps in neighboring bangladesh. 3 quarters of those interviewed said that they personally witnessed members of the military kill some one more than half

witnessed acts of sexual violence. they also told of how the military raised villages to the ground carried out torture and over horrific abuses. think and said the key was that these incidents were not isolated. the attack against her henry was widespread in systematic which is crucial for reaching a determination of crimes against humanity. the evidence also points to a clear intent behind these mass atrocities. the intent to destroy will hinder, in whole or in part. the u. s. is not the 1st country to call the violence against the ro hinge a genocide. some even accuse washington of dragging feet. but ro hinges spokespeople have welcome the development and hope that it could lead to other countries upping the pressure on be in mars, military jumper. then a very l. m, we are very, very happy about the declaration of genocide. many,

many thanks. we have been hoping for that for a long time, because it has been 60 years since the myanmar government has been torturing us and many other communities, including ro hinge oh. in the meantime, the ordeal at the ro hinge a goes on. this group arrived in indonesia by boat, from bangladesh at the beginning of march. they say their hope is to start a new life. there that gentlemen offer more, is fin robertson from human rights watch fil a calling bird or finger of brush. and genocide is really not new. is it? i mean, the urine human rights commissioner called it acts of genocide back in 2018. how the secondary blinking announcement change anything? well, we hope that it will now motivate other governments around the world to also look at this to really investigated and also to support the gambia at the international

court of justice. but you're right, it doesn't do much beyond a, you know, add to the list of atrocities that the myanmar military has committed. and, you know, that's why we've been saying ok, excellent move. but now we need to see real action. now we need to see something happening at the un security council that actually impacts the situation on the ground. ah, you know, that goes beyond just call for accountability, but actually changes the dynamic keeping weapons away from the military. i'm posing in arms bar, go referring the military to the international criminal court. these are all things that are at the top of our list. the do think the, the lack of action against their me and my child thus far. when it comes to the depression of the ranger has emboldened the army to crack down on democracy in the country. there is no doubt that the myanmar military can meet these

atrocity against the ro hang guy and then looked around and realized they had gotten away with it and feel, felt that they could do more. ah, this is again the, you know, the, the failure of the international community to impose accountability for atrocities that have happened in myanmar over the years is that, you know, the take away by the me, i'm, our military is, we've done it before. we can do it again and no one can stop us. and, and the reality is that this now with the ro hang a genocide, really is the worst case scenario that you could imagine in terms of what the military could do against the people of myanmar. and it's, it's astonishing that it really had to come to this point to actually get the international committee to wake up and realize what has been happening or would like to talk to robert or other qu in me and mine how the hunter has collect down against a democracy in the country, and i just like to update our view is 1st, that opposition groups in the country now are expressing outrage at a meeting between

a southeast asian piece envoy and leaders of me and mas military government asi, an envoy, proc so horn was also can buddhist foreign minister, travel to me in mount to meet with one toyota mean on hearing and other me and my officials. a coalition of civil society groups and muma has called the meeting, shameful. and me and my husband into mine for over a year now, the military's takeover of power in february 2020 one's fucked. nationwide strikes and protests which have been put down by force fins. speaking about that cracked on ease the cambodian foreign ministers visit to me and mom helping result of the crisis is really not. i mean, he's there ostensibly to pursue the implementation of the so called 5 point consensus, recent asi on, but he's already violating core premises of that, that, you know, any conversation involved all stakeholders so far, the only please mad has been a military junta leaders. unfortunately,

we don't expect to see much from this visit. there may be some donation, some humanitarian aid provided. but you know, the reality is that the asi, on a split right down the middle on these issues of, of myanmar, there is, and a lot of the other governments of asi, i'm particularly indonesia, malaysia, and singapore who are not happy with how the cambodians are handling this and i expect that the demands by myanmar that they be in charge of any sort of, of, for movement on this will ultimately stymie any progress. because so far the military doesn't want to do a deal. it doesn't want to step back. it's, it's busy trying to crush an uprising against it and which begs the question, therefore, firm can asi, i'm truly help for the restoration of democracy and muma. i have my serious doubts at asi on is the solution here? ah, you know,

unfortunately we're seeing the european union and the americans and others all continue to talk about audience and tragedy. as if asi on, as the regional organization is gonna fix myanmar, it appears that that is just a way for those big countries to duck a greater responsibility on myanmar, awhile they pay attention to other crises, things like that. the situation in ukraine, ah, you know, unfortunately it's been pushed over to the, to the local association of southeast asian states. and this is probably the one organization that is least capable of actually finding a solution with the necessary political commitment and protection of rights and democracy that myanmar needs fell. we'll leave there for the timing, but thank you so much for joining us today from robinson from human rights watch. a documentary on the 2019 hong kong protests has been breaking records in taiwan. people have been flocking to cinema to take in revolution of our times. it is the

island territories, top a box of his documentary this year. the film means a lot of many, hong kong ers who called taiwan their home. now they fled their cities cracked down on democratic freedoms. in the past couple of years, did i lose? joyce lee spoke to one of them. it takes courage for kim to go to the cinema for this fan from hong kong revolution of our times, documents to pro democracy movement in 2019, where he was on the front line and charged with unlawful assembly. he has now taken refuge in democratic taiwan, but it still hurts to revisit the trauma. cuz it's a yoga hawaii. ha, ha ha, it's tortuous to watch the film. but i think ultimately it's a good thing in our hearts are wounded and we have to face the facts, legal. we are brave enough to deal with the fear and tremonti all you got so that we find reasons to persevere. resolution of our times, guess his title from the anti government protest. so again, of the same name,

that slogan has been banned under hong kong, national security, low and of him has been outlawed in a city while last year, the documentary one, ty, once golden horse award, also known as asia's oscars. it is now a screening and taiwan the 1st and only territory to grant a wide release to the phone, the direct his that he attempted to get it into movie theaters worldwide. but nearly every one rejected him dead. i wouldn't have been his order though. we worked very hard to get the film distributed in the past 6 months, but failed though. i think we reached out to prominent streaming platforms, even international film festivals that have are tradition of screening hong kong films didn't respond to our applications. the answer is clear to me, it will cost them sponsors from china. oh, it's all about politics. politics has penetrated the film industry and good censorship. didn't stop it from becoming a huge box office, had to year to some taiwanese. it's more than a film about hong kong, but

a warning for the future as china faust, to quote, re unify with the island presidents high in ones that taiwan should learn from hong kong. and he found his democratic values. velma activists, kim said he is touched by the success they were tied up to see that you were right to come out and protest. now the film can be commercially screened in taiwan po, more taiwanese, as well as people in the west support, freedom and democracy, and fight against the chinese communist party. our protest movement is a driving force for me, it's a mixture of warner and greek on the home. the protest movement in hong kong has been all, but this man towed the make his of the fam hope his spirit can live on on screen. and that's it. for today there's of course more from the region on our website will leave you now with some more images of the ruined yacht people and the odyssey they've had to endure fleeing from their homeland in me. and mom is you back here tomorrow, but ah,

a wars shaking your head to its core. over 3 weeks ago, russian tapes rumbled over ukrainian soil. we've been there from the start witnessing the invasion, needing the revenue that needs to go reporting on a war unfolding. the struggle for ukraine close up next on d, w,

hulu. what people have to say matters to us. mm. that's why we listen to their stories. reporter every weekend on d. w. m is february 24th 2022. russian forces cross the border into ukraine. they're following orders from president vladimir putin who people he about picking up trying to leave a war unfold that may bundle mentally alter the global geopolitical order. would have showed the gem chance leg holes. they supported war. he says that bloodshed must dub european.
