like germany ah, i'm sarah kelly. welcome to the program. china's top coated response official has hinted at a relaxation of its hard line approach that has sparked on rest not seen since the 1989 pro democracy protests aging has said that it will crack down on demonstrations of public anger against the measures. but vice premier son to alon, who is a central figure behind beijing's pandemic response, has now suggested to help the fishes officials that china's covet controls may soon be relax. except he is like want joe and tom ching have already started easing restrictions. now, more carrot and less stick in china's pandemic strategy. i asked journalist fabian crutch me in beijing if the possible easing of coven restrictions means president.

she is 0. coven policy has felt where at least an admission that the strategy is not sustainable. any mind this opinion is also widely shared by many chinese, and it's really quite obvious. the shift in public rhetoric by the politicians is really quite remarkable. the vice premier, a basically said, we are now in a new phase of pandemic control. and also many state media have published articles focusing on, you know, vixen nation campaigns, and also saying that, you know, when you're vaccinated, that the on the chrome variant is not as of as much of as a dangerous a threat as, as it used to be. and this public messaging is quite different than what we've heard before. so there's definitely a change and you can see it in at least 2 cities who have already started some easing or measures he and beijing. i would say you can also feel it a little bit, namely m many neighbor committee. so the local level, it's don't enforce those locked ons as strict as any more. but of course it's,

it's a long process and there are many steps and probably a lot of back and forth. and i don't expect any radical shift or a radical opening up, but more like small steps savvy. and where does the protest movement go from here? where i think the political part of the protests is basically suspended. it's repressed and i'm, i'm also having some security issues yet unusual wet and we'll walk on glen eden denisha because i mean they're so heavy intimidation tactics or, i mean, yeah, yeah it's. so i am sorry and, and for example, people are getting phone calls and are, or basically when he's, when they see a reporter, they asked him to leave us. it's just happening here. and our yeah that's, that's, that's, i mean, the police presence is basically and hindering those protests. but of course, those anti locked on um, protests they might continue, but they're not political nature. they're more about and you're leaving or getting it to freedom and leaving their compound rallies in solidarity have been taking

place all over the globe or chinese protesters, aware of the international support will only to some degree, namely, only those trainees will use we p n software and m that this is a software tool which is actually illegal here, but you can use it and then you can access free information, for example, you know, based on platforms as twitter and on those and platforms, those images of, you know, outside teen or chinese for example in south korea or in, in europe or u. s. in those universities where they hold demonstrations and, and post critical messages. i mean, it's not accessible within the chinese internet because it gets really very quickly deleted. but with some tools, if you get around to censorship, then you can access those adding petra embed aging. thank you so much. and here's a look at another stories making years around the world. on a one day visit to beijing, european council, president shaw michelle met with chinese leader. she's in paying as he seeks to

shore diplomatic and trade ties. he also discussed protests over china 0 coven policies, and signed a book of condolences for former chinese president jiang. same man, human rights group say that a man has been shot dead by security forces in northern iran for celebrating the iranian football teams defeat against the u. s. and exit from the world cup. many iranians refused to support the national team in response to a violent government crackdown on anti regime protest. germany's parliament has officially recognized they historical famine and ukraine as genocide . ukrainians commemorate the whole of dormer, a famine engineered by soviet russia's communist liter. joseph stalin, in the 934000000 people starved to death. several countries already condemned as genocide and satellite images show. russia may be gearing up for

a massive area. aerial assault on ukraine picture show almost 2 dozen long range bombers and cruise missiles, being prepared for combat at the angles to airfield. near sar tough, a blast in russia, ukraine's military officials told local media the bombers will be used to increase strikes on ground targets in ukraine, especially energy infrastructure corresponded gon philip schultz is with us from keith. now on phillip, we're looking at the satellite images. it seems that russia is preparing for a new round of heavy air strikes. is ukraine prepared? well, these images certainly don't say come unexpected for ukrainians on sunday already. first information emerged. that's a new message for mrs. dry ex. might be eminent in the past week, sir. the ukrainian edifice has been able to intercept her on 60 or 70 percent of

those missiles, but of course the potential of destruction is still enormous, especially on civilian infrastructure. and we have to keep in mind events. ukraine is still suffering from the effects of the past. massive attacks, millions of ukrainians are still without power. at the same time, the government has asked the people here not to live in the constant anticipation of new massive attacks. because of course, it's also part of russia. so psychological warfare. how well as the military prepared, you know, against the fact that we've seen, ah, you know, top officials in the ukranian government, i'm calling for more assistance from international partners. have they been getting that especially when it comes to air support? yes, looking at the massive error aerial attacks, of course, our defense systems are the highest priority here in ukraine. the

people demand more air defense systems from, from western countries. at the same time, the battles on the front lines in the east and the south are continuing. so your brain is also demanding for more tanks and, and more offensive a weapon systems about looking at the upcoming winter and the imminent danger for the civilian population. and you air defense systems are the highest priority at the moment. temperatures are troughing. how are you craniums coping with so much infrastructure being destroyed by these air strikes? millions of people are still without sir power across the country. and so no power usually also means no heating, and this is very dangerous at the moment because electricity is needed and many apartments to pump up hot water and are often adjust. no electric heaters are also needed. so the government has set up so called emergency centers or centers of

invincibility. they call it across the country where there is 24 hours of power, but still a task to, to keep the population warm is certainly the biggest challenge. she at the moment yon phillips shelter and keith, thank you. now the german government is launching a range of measures to attract a skilled workers from abroad. in other news, it aims to combat the growing worker shortage in the country. it is hoped that the points base system will fill around $2000000.00 vacancies across multiple industries from nursing to i t to public administration. but the proposals are being criticized by the opposition for ignoring the potential of skilled workers already in germany. sonya a lug of band fled iran to come to germany. now she's fulfilling her dream, learning to become

a trained driver with germany's national railway company don't siobhan said god is good. i didn't think that i could do something like this here. not at all. and happy that soon i'll be able to drive on my own alina father can so don't you bon sonya is a godsend. the company is desperately trying to fill vacancies as they deal with the workers shortage. it's a nation wide problem. around 2000000 workers are needed across multiple industries . from nursing i t day care centers, skilled trades and public administration. the government hopes the key issues paper they've adopted. we'll help to solve the shortage owner of either of us. we won't make any headway in terms of economic policy without more skilled workers. that means we are compelled to act quickly and decisively. in addition to this challenge and the many crisis that we have to overcome, revision the right,

3 major processes of change in the economy as they all start with a d young digitalization to carbonate zation and demographic change. where address in the latter, with his key issues, paper and a degree of determination never seen before in germany, dharma boyd submitted to a camera the proposal, its own version of a green card, to attract people from outside the e. u to germany. it would have a point space system similar to the canadian one. the criteria for a job offer could include qualifications, language, skills, work, experience, connection to germany and age. but the idea is not without criticism. the opposition is arguing that the potential of skilled workers already in germany should be exhausted 1st. but the ruling coalition disagrees. when alan will pull out all stops to raise the potential at home so that the shortage of skilled workers does not become a brake on growth. and when we're done with all of that,

it won't be enough. we need supplementary qualified immigration from abroad. the aim is to allow $400000.00 people to immigrate every year, quickly, digitally and unborn. critically. a draft bill will be presented to the bundis doug at the beginning of next year. and from war. now let's bring in date of your political correspondent, juliessa. now deli, so we're hearing there, the german government appearing to have some decisive measures in mind. why now? well, the 3 parties that are in the coalition government at the moment had already agreed on wanting to reform. germany's migration laws already last year when they signed a coalition agreement, but it's becoming ever clear that germany really is an urgent need of more foreign workers. if we look at the numbers, one in 2 companies in germany are suffering from a lack of skilled workers in all kinds of sectors from services to i,

t manufacturing to health care. and the situation is expected to get even worse if no measures are taken because of germany's aging population. more people going into retirements and the low birth rate. that's why we've seen the proposal of this point base system to allow foreign workers outside of the you to come to germany if they respect certain criteria which depends on qualifications and degrees, work experience, a language, skilled skills and age. and that is meant to make the process easier for a skilled workers from abroad to come to germany, but also to expand the pool of qualified workers who can come and work in germany. and there are other pro immigration measures in the pipeline. what's on the table? yes, so on the one hand, the coalition has put forward in a word, a work in progress as

a draft to make in naturalization easier for people who are already living in germany. the process would be shorten from 8 to 5 years. people would then be able to apply for citizenship after 5 years of living in germany. and they would also allow a dual citizenship with countries outside the u and switzerland. this is something that is not allowed currently and that would, for example, in particular, impact the big community in germany with turkish roots who have until now had to decide between a turkish and german passport. but other planned reforms also look at the asylum process, which the current government wants to accelerate make faster, less bureaucratic, and more efficient. and it also looks at this category of people that are under

so called tolerated status. that means these are people whose asylum claim has been rejected, but these people have not been deported because of humanitarian or technical reasons. and now these people, if they've been in germany for at least 5 years, would now receive a residence permit on a one year probation. and that is aimed to acknowledge the fact that these people have built a life in germany in the last 5 years. and that they have a chance to, to continue to live in germany and to stay here to la sal jelly in berlin. thank you. now it is world aids day. but with worldwide efforts to faddle, the corona virus pandemic. there has been much less of a focus on h. i. v. aids that you went estimates that last year around $38.00 and a half 1000000 people around the world. we're living with h i v aids. and although it is claiming far fewer lives than it did at its peak in 2004, 650000 people, died of

h i v related causes last year. there is still no h i v vaccine. and that makes preventative measures to avoid infection even more important. africa has the highest number of people living with the virus. i drown crease reports now from cape town in south africa, where it's hoped that trials for new preventative methods will drive numbers down. once a month since their medical been gone, i comes to this health center to get a package of prep, a daily pill of the pre exposure prophylaxis, protects people from getting h i v. when having sex or my family generation to generation it's, they do have their age of a positive. so i came here to take breath because i wanna, i don't want to be that puddle for junction. that is, he driving plaza to the health center of the desmond to to health foundation doubles up as a research site for many years. residence in the massive familiarly township have

been participating in clinical trials 18 year old marvel bengal ana is also considering taking part in a clinical trial for prevention options and injection instead of a daily pill. recently we had the breakthrough of that day per injectable, that only had to be given every 2 months. that cavity, grover, long acting injectable. and at the moment in this very vicinity, we are tasting a 6 monthly prophylactic injectable, known as lemma kappa via. so if we can get to a point where young people round the world, only have to take an injection every 6 months, twice a year. that would be an extraordinary breakthrough. linda. gail becker is a leading infectious disease specialist overseeing protocols for several prep and h. i v vaccine trials. she praises the achievements in the past. in the ninety's, hundreds of thousands died of aids. now anti retroviral drugs allow patients to live a normal life with

a normal lifespan. but the crisis is not solved. particularly in the global north, there has been a, you know, turning away from a chevy. i think many people think the pandemic is over far from it. we had 4000 young women, became infected with h. i v in the last week alone. and we still have a $150000.00 children newly and did result chevy every year. at there is still a pandemic raging in many parts of the world. it's almost like we've written half the book. and you know, we walking away before the rest of the, the book is, is finished am. and that to my mind is a, you know, is, is, is a catastrophe because of all the investment we've had in the last 30 years could be lost. if we don't actually finish the story, then came up of penguin. i wants to play her part in finishing the story back at home. the 18 year old is busy,

convincing friends to take prep little article because they say literally eaten tv pill because they're not sick. i think it's to get people more and catered about it . mattel, bengal on assess her generation, is the 1st one to openly talk about h. i v, an important step to end the pandemic o. at the football world cup in katara, it was group sees turn to play and pray with every team hoping to advanced to the knockout stages of the tournament. despite leonel massey missing a penalty, it was argentina getting a crucial when over poland. the 1st score was a bit clumsy. alexis mcallister shot, went off his foot into his chin up against the post and into the goal. in the 67th minute julian alvarez made a tune ill and that was how it ended. argentina won the group, followed by poland, whose fans and players saw

a few minutes after the game that they too had advanced. and back in buenos, i had a thousands of supporters filled the streets in celebration. following argentina's victory, the 2 time world cup winners had fans biting their nails after losing their opening match in to tar. but now everyone smiling beds in buenos, i'd as wind from uncertainty to pure ecstasy. ah, when it was clear, the cope, american winters would advance to the knockout stage in cutter. i'd what is his goal? i loved it. i'm a broker fun but well, it's a great go by who. yeah. nobody's. oh, you did. i can tell us on. when was he or very moved, the match was a show, the best match of argentina so far. beautiful. and with

a lot of faith in waiting. we suffered with that miss penalty, but nothing. now and with a lot of hope in waiting, i guess. anyway, this year we'll be champions. first we will be australia, then france, and then the final against england. argentina's last world cup victory was in 1986 . and if the south american nation wins, the party in the streets will gone non stop because for them, it's a summer event. and now with france already guaranteed to advance australia and denmark competed to join them in the knockout round. here's how the game unfolded. denmark showed 3rd to him to ride from the start, but 10 minutes in australia's keep them at rhein was in the way of doing much leads, fer pressure continued, but either austria's defense stood strong, or denmark wasn't accurate enough. australia's 1st chance came just before half time, not denmark's christians, and in the right spot,

with the clearance. after halftime australia dominated the game, but the shot from just outside the box was cleared by the danish defence. 5 minutes later, jackson irvine shot went over the bar, and captain mox hopes alive. just after the one hour mark, australia, 2nd half dominance paid off. matthew lackey with the clinical finish. one mill, austria denmark with the last chance of the game. but australia held on the screws or through to the run of 16, a disappointing world cup for denmark comes to an end and we can look forward to another intense day. here's the schedule for the final group stage matches in group f, croatia, face belgium, and canada. meet morocco than in group e. japan play spain and germany is up against costa rica. germany suffered a stunning opening defeat to japan, but salvage

a draw with spain in their next game. germany were eliminated at the group stage in russia 4 years ago. and they don't want the same fate and guitar and weeks of anti government protest in iran have inspired a wave of action around the world. but it's not just campaigners taking to the streets. cultural institutions are also raising their voices. among them is one of germany's best known theaters initiated by 3 well known german iranian actresses. a special evening of voices about iran aimed to highlight the courage of the nations where man, ah rule and iranian love song from the 1970s. the prelude to a sold out evening at the berliner ensemble theatre. it was initiated by 3 well known german rang and actresses and their colleagues. cindy mentioned instant allan iran who are in danger, who are risking their lives. what we can do is simply amplify their voices that and

we can empower them, be stalking my. and as a mark of remembrance, the names of 62 children and young people killed in the demonstration law as ability. it isn't light entertainment. ah, it's an evening of many voices, sometimes with a soft and melancholy tone. must on her text read by iranian poets and writers such as naveed kamani often deal with suffering deeds and death fought gabor lines. but beauty and change are also naughty. that executes u, as in the work of famous persian poet, huffy boy, oh, add it should add to emeralds before either fe, canny mall. yea, in mac, thereby hall. it'll k salmon hard, short skipped in there's the pain that comes to the for on an evening like this.

but there's also something like an awakening of hope that's equally important. oh, the courage of iranian women is often center stage journalist natalie mary, i says western cliches about oppression or inaccurate cabin. anya, it's cause bull and i've worked and lived in this country for 9 years as a correspondent for a r d. and i saw almost exclusively proud, strong willed and courageous women who didn't let anyone tell them what to do. dizziness thompson lesson. but bringing change require staying power and dream. i hope i will live to see the day or maybe my children of a free iran democracy that is secure. and we're a woman as a president o an evening ho. that concludes with the song that has become the

anthem of the revolution. reminder at the top story that we're falling for you here on dw news, china's top coated response official has hinted at a relaxation of the hard line approach that has sparked on rest and disrupted the economy. big cities like one show and tilting have already started using corporate restrictions. aflac, it is focused on europe with a story on ukraine's pro russian all of arc. so to stay with us here and the w, if you can for that. i'm sarah kelly and berlin. thank you so much for watching. take care. ah ah,
