5:06 pm
foreign minister handling a backhanded back, statutes known as benign bronzes. she described the repair creation as long overdue the bronze ceremony. thousands of treasures stolen from africa by colonial powers. i can make that story, but definitely correspondent flourish chick laura. she witnessed the formalities as those statues were handed back and i asked her how the hand over with this was a historic moment, not just for nigeria, but also for germany. it was not just historically, it was also very emotional. i mean, when the minister of foreign minister for germany, and i lena bear book was speaking, you could hear audiences, you know, you could hear the voices of people in the audience making sounds. they were very moved by has statement because she said things like german, the record is, is the wrong. that has been dawn. it was wrong to take them in the 1st place was
5:07 pm
wrong to keep them, you know, so it was very moving for a lot of people here. there was also a speech by the german germany. germany is minister for culture and cloudy are rough, and has speech was also very moving. she also said that this, this act of returning the been in bronze. this is a sign, an, a statement to the rest of the world that us works need to be enjoyed in the places where they've originated from. and so everyone was really, you know, it was really captivating. usually family events. people are distracted and all of that. but this particular one was really captivating and moving. and of course, the official honda about took place to where the german foreign minister symbolically handed over 2 of the art works to the nigerian foreign minister and
5:08 pm
the niger. i mean the south culture you give us the insight about the emotion inside the room. i wonder how important is the return of the been in bronze. as for nigeria more broadly speaking? well, something that we've had resounded over and over again. not just in this room, but by historians all across nigeria, by artist brenager as themselves, is that these art walks are not just for artifacts, like they're not just appreciate art and beauty. they are a part of nigeria as identity, especially the been in kingdom where they originated from a lot of families that were bronze as associated these as walks to reach you out to the spiritual life as well. so many of them, you know, it's all a significant place in the ancestry. so for them it's a form of reconciliation with their ancestors having these been brought back to the
5:09 pm
land where they were created yesterday. one of the many says many self cultural went to be mean to see where these at walks are still being made and you know, a lot of them expressed how excited unhappy they went to receive them back. florence took, took water in a boucher thank you so much on nearly 80 years since the crimes were committed. a courtier germany has convicted 97 year old woman in connection with the murder of more than 10000 people in a nazi concentration camp. a former type of start, the stood off camp was given a 2 year suspended sentence. she was just, i think when she began work, the judge said it would be one of the last trials related to the nazi concentration camps. this report begins with a testimony from a holocaust survivor. it
5:10 pm
will delay. i wanted to live a building. i did not want to die as well. it was easy to die and it was harder to live live. maybe that's what kept me going like that. i don't know how much i was right in the end of the heck. i have 11 great grandchildren in the 11th is on the way. it is not the vase. i'm a rich man. you know, i, jama, being alive is still a miracle for about an hour. he's one of the last survivors of the show on the 94 year old regularly travels from israel to germany to tell his story of how he spent his teenage years in concentration camps. in 1944, the germans deported him and his family from lithuania to the concentration camp of still turf in what is poland to day is incompatible. still, when we're brought to cetaphil, norma, we were still half way normal. it glided through addressing our own clothes until
5:11 pm
then we live with our family in the ghetto, even though we were locked out, i just felt wrong. but instead of, we began to feel that we would no longer a family. i english isn't kind of, i mean, now or is mother hannah and his little brother, bella were deported to auschwitz and killed in july 1944. that was also the time 18 year old m got f worked in shutoff, serving as chief secretary to the camps. commander f has mostly kept silent, stating she felt sorry to have been instilled 12 but that she didn't know about the killing that was allegedly going on below her window for now or what she said doesn't matter anyway, miss aron for us. hush grimma. if she did anything wrong or that all committed a crime, oh, you're in fresh trouble. why did they wait until today? i went on give out the business. milligan, come on me and they still say you can't tell me fairy tales. digression,
5:12 pm
the figures fish mellow like of that for many survivors and their descendants. this trial is sending a signal says lawyer or visitor his copper funds for them. this is not demanding these criminal proceedings as an act of revenge. few women, it is also important to many survivors to testify. that is to stand in court and tell their story. because what they also say is, but we don't want it to be forgotten. the boy knew this for guessing good. well, if i am sort of is the director of the same on the some tell center which tracks down nazi war criminals. he says the 2 years suspended sentence handed down by the court is absurd. is the best sentence that we could have gotten because she's been trying to juno what's best part of the problem here. and in a certain respect, this has been saying, this is absolutely absurd because
5:13 pm
a suspended sentence means that the sense will only be able to make it suppose to repeat the crime. and obviously, she's not about to repeat the crime. the old age is not a excuse or a reason why people should not be brought to justice. and this is what we owe we all to the victims and their families, that any person who is involved in these crimes no should be, should pay for them. and i could just point out that in the previous trial of bro day, also served to shoot off the judge. she ripped to pieces all the arguments against these trials. in other words, because of the advanced age for the time that passed the fact that more serious senior people, the senior rank when i brought to justice. and she basically said in, in crimes of a tragedy like the holocaust, there's no such thing as a small car. 020 years ago a book was already written. and the title was the last night. i could tell you that
5:14 pm
more than a 100 nasty workers were convicted in the interim. so i wouldn't run or rush just to call this the last try. i know for a fact we are busy trying to find a survivors from the ravaged berg. robin's brook, excuse me, i can't say no other germany who can testify against a person who served as a guy was a mess in the woman's chair and is scheduled to be brought to justice in the coming months. and there are more additional investigations going on. a great socialist, a fact. as a european parliament vice president has apparently made a partial confession of allegations of bribery. eva kylie was arrested by belgian police investigating illicit payments to a you politicians coming many reports say she has now admitted asking her father to hire money before police. right. for our he was taken into custody on suspicion of
5:15 pm
trying to conceal a suitcase filled with cash and a brussels hotel. kelly is accused of being part of a group of you politicians who took bribes from cutter and morocco. the deputies abraham told me more about the latest developments in the class while anthony, this case just keeps getting stranger and stranger. i mean, from these media reports, it would appear that kylie has essentially used her father as a mule for these funds, asking him to hide them in a bag in a brussels hotel. and as soon as he, you know, was arrested. he was also arrested as part of these rates for it for a time. we know that she then started a warning her accomplices, that this is now happening. now, these are all according to media reports. these have not been confirmed yet. these are, you know, supposedly coming from leaks from the pending investigation and the interrogation of kylie and her associates, or she is said to she's now in pre trial detention. and as i said to appear in
5:16 pm
court on thursday, where her fate will be decided how this case will proceed further. i, we're learning more and more in brussels. but how's it guitar reacting to these allegations? well, the qatari stance really has not changed since the beginning of this scandal. they still maintain that they had absolutely nothing to do with this. they also said that, you know, why has the, why have belgian authorities not approached us at, we know from reports that this investigation has been going on for a while and as long as a year they, you know, cut very poorly. pottery officials have now been banned from accessing european permit buildings. they're very upset about that. and we sign a statement by a carrier official. you know, he's already saying, well, you know, this really threatens our cooperation, especially in the area of energy security and regional security. he is, of course, referring to europe's growing dependency on guitar for liquefied natural gas in the
5:17 pm
european union in germany, especially has in the past weeks or so turn took a tar turret to help it with the energy deficit. all because europe has to rely less on energy from, from russia. so that's how the categories are, are reacting so far. kaylee is accused of receiving bribes from carter to influence policy debates. what did they have to gain from having someone like her on they saw it? i think we have to zoom out a little bit and look at the larger context of guitar and the neighborhood if you will, that it finds itself in. i mean it's surrounded by regional heavy weights. they're also rivals, we're talking about the u. e. we're talking about saudi arabia. we're talking about egypt. these are all powerful countries around guitar that have very, very good relations. deep ties with the west, whether economically or politically, they're also rivals of guitar. our viewers might recall that a couple of years ago, all of these countries came together and decided to boycott guitar essentially. and
5:18 pm
the country found itself in essentially what's been described sometimes as an economic blockade. and so over the past years and certainly hosting of the world cup has been part of that guitar has been trying to put itself on the map in more ways than one. and what kylie has provided is essentially, you know, a voice for their talking points and advocate for how they want the world to perceive themselves a to, to perceive them in the heart of european democracy. and so of course there are, you know, there's all these talks about the visa program and so on. but really the words that she was seeing in the european parliament. these are guitar, a government, talking points about how guitar is a pioneer about how much they're making strides in liberal, liberates in the region, for example. and so it would appear that you know, that was the worth, the money for them. i abraham in brussels, thanks so much. now u. s. prosecutors are considering whether to file formal criminal charges against former president donald trump. a congressional panel has recommended for counts of trump's role. in the january 6th insurrection,
5:19 pm
trump has dismissed the referral as fike charges saying that democrat lead committee is trying to block his possible return to campaigning. oh, these images shocked the world. 2 years ago, thousands of supporters of former president donald trump storm the u. s. capital aiming to overturn the 2020 election and stop the peaceful transfer of power. 5 people died in the tank, including capital police officers, who sole responsibility was to protect the members of congress, the vice president and their staff. 6 months later, congress established the so called january 6 committee to investigate the events that led to the attack committee got straight to work. conducting over a 1000 interviews at holding 10 public hearings, they released previously unseen footage documenting the harrowing hours inside the
5:20 pm
building. and the highlighted, the former president's leg of action to stop the riot even accusing him of helping to carry chow. i gotta walk down to the capital. i hope we help make clear that there's a broader kind of accountability, accountability to all of you, the american people, the future of our democracy, rest in your hands. it's up to the people of this country to decide who deserves the public trust. january 6th, 2021 was the 1st time one american president refused his constitutional duty to transfer power peacefully to the next. and i worked over the last 18 months. the select committee has recognized our obligation to do everything we can to ensure this never happens again. the committee recommended criminal charges for former president donald trump,
5:21 pm
but it will be up to the u. s. justice department to decide whether he will actually end up in court. i told him the report is highly symbolic and it will have long lasting effect from police and vision. all i want to do is that many republicans supporting a candidate facing criminal charges. maybe a bridge too far. now, earlier i asked a w, washington bureau chief in his pole who fall that report. whether it's likely the us attorney general will actually prosecute donald trump. while anthony at the u. s . is in the very early stages of this extremely complicated process. as we just heard. the general 6 committee announced its unprecedented recommendation to reform a president from 4 or 4 different criminal charges. the justice department is already working on cases against trump and also his associates. so we do not know what stage they are in or if they plan to move forward with any charges. but and
5:22 pm
anthony, i think it is fair to say that this is still a monumental moment on capitol hill. you make the point that we don't know exactly where we are in this landscape, but if we take it to its end, the scenario would these charges, could these charges stop trump from running again for president? well, if, if the president were to get charged for inciting an insurrection, sorry, which was one of the 4 recommended charges he would be disqualified from running for office again. but at this stage, at this very moment, nothing can prevent him from continuing to pursue to hold public office in his trump has painted the investigation as a political which on another one. but could this actually help him if he does run again? that's a good question. anthony, him, i mean amongst his deepest and most like loyal supporters and he continues to be
5:23 pm
extremely popular and this might actually embolden them as a trump looks to take bag the white house. but we also have to keep in mind that during the midterms in november, that the most voters rejected actually trump endorsed candidates who campaigned that the election was stolen. so it is likely that the majority of the republican party members are rather turning their back against the donald trump. you've been witness to all of this. do you think this investigation can deepen, america's political divide even further from where it is now? well, anthony, recently the tip of the capitol police testified in front of the senate and said that there were more than 9000 threats against lawmakers this past year. i think this shows how deep the dividers and how dangerous it is here in the united
5:24 pm
states. the w. washington bureau chief in his poll. thanks so much. now, one of europe's traditions in the run up to christmas is saint nicholas day in ye crime extra help was needed this year. but thanks to the national rail network and the united nations saint nick managed to bring some joy to children. they w a manual shower reports. oh, he can't use the slay this year. since katy, nikolai was saint nicholas made his way to key if central train station, because no miss isaac going to stop what ukrainians called magic knight from happening. the children must have been obedient. even this year were not carrying sticks, only happiness to the holiday spirit. since the sky is closed over ukraine, we travel by train as much as we can. oh,
