u. s. president has recently announced tougher us mexican mexico border policies to curb illegal migration. so pressing pressing issues on the table at that summit are correspond in as poll is in mexico city. i asked her how the north american leaders are getting on. no, definitely not terry, but you know, it is interesting. we heard like this morning, early on and look us up at our door. the mexican, a prime minister, gave his daily press conference, or that he really was praising a president bite. and he said they had a fantastic grade in the big car, which is called the beast that president biden. oh, kind of explain explained all these little buttons in the car. so everybody here like president a 2 door biden and here i love his upright or are really trying to put out a good vibe before this is north american liter summit. but indeed,

there are some tough questions to be discussed mainly around migration. well, talking migration has the biden administration really changed us policy much on this issue in as compared to that of former president trump? his talking to people here in mexico city. no, some told us yesterday that he actually even worse ended with his latest announcements. first of all, title 42, which president donald trump, a put in place is still in place. he didn't change that. that means that it's much harder for migraines, for asylum seekers to cross the border anyhow and bite and just announce that only $30000.00 people who apply through an app will be allowed to kind of enter the process of teaching. and that only $30000.00, i'm talking figures per month, 30000 to have already

a family or sponsors living in the united states will be allowed into the united states. that leaves this country here, mexico in troubles, because there are hundreds of thousands of migrants crossing mexico. they want to go into the united states and that won't happen. so yes indeed, president biden is not making it easier for microns to enter the united states. this summer at the same place where you are in mexico city, it involves not just the mexican and us leaders, but the canadian leader as well. these 3 leaders getting together, can we expect any concrete decisions? yes, it will be about migration. we talked about it, it will be about climate change, but it will be most and mainly also by economical issues. you know, this is like the north american leader. some, it might sound a little bit. oh, kind of new for many of our international students, but this is about the northern hemisphere of the americas. and that's what bite and

just put out in an announcement. they really want to strengthen the economy, kill economical bonds between mexico and the united states. and, or canada, why? because they kind of want to exchange or changed the dependency from china through deeper bonds of mexico. they want to work on those. so, shortages of a kind of a, a, chains they needed, you know, which were in trouble through covered and 19 to the pandemic. so they really want to intensify at the economical bonds of our day kind of connections between the 2 countries. and i'm pretty sure that we will hear more about that today in the press conference from biden and lopez abra door, and also tomorrow and all 3 trudeau biden. and lovers of our door will tell us what they came up with during this summer tier, which is taking place behind me in mexico city in us. thank you so much, our washington bureau chief in as paul in mexico city. so you look at

a couple of other stories making headlines around the world today. ukraine's president bellamy zalinski says his troops on the eastern frontier holding on despite everything. soldiers face continuous assaults by russian troops and mercenaries around the towns of solid r. an awkward. this part of the dawn bass front has seen some of the most prolonged fighting of the war. 5 suspects appeared in a canyon court in connection with the murder of prominent l. g, b, t, q activist, and fashion designer and when she lava chill of his body was found stuffed in a metal trunk by the side of the road. kenya's human rights commission says the murders of several, l. g, b, t, q activists in recent years, remain unsolved. iran has sentenced to death. 3 more people accused of killing members of the security forces during anti government protests. the crackdown has had a chilling effect on the protest movement,

which has largely subsided in recent weeks. but as the government proceeds with executions anger towards the regime continues to grow. or it's the knight's iranians are most afraid of these days because that's when the islamic republic carries out executions. in prisons like this, one in college, people are gathering. he had to show their support for the inmates among the crowd . the parents of one of the prisoners mohammed will, but you, the 22 year old, has been sentenced to death and transferred to solitary confinement, along with 18 year old mohammed pro honey for allegedly killing a member of these lamb at republics armed forces. who about whose mother says the trial was a sham and that her son had nothing to do with the incident. i'm really not. everybody knows that they deliberately put this in my son's prosecution file with

the aim of heading. my son, that's not right there. committed an injustice experts agreed quoting official documents from the case leaked in october, and one of these 2 men that he just mentioned, wonderful, but little his court documents were leaked in october and even there, just one week after was arrested. you could see that the regime said we need to execute him and we need to expedite this whole process so that he can, can be executed and that was before any, any court proceeding before anything even happened. so we can see that they, these executions artist purely to intimidate people and to stop the protests. instead, they're driving people on to the streets. also here in berlin, where activists gathered in front of the german foreign ministry. they feel the government is not doing enough to pressure the iranian regime and assessment shared by members of parliament as well. i think one very important thing is

that um, the islamic revolutionary guard corpse, they are responsible for the death and torture of the people that are protesting and iran. and they must be held accountable, accountable, and germany can not wait for other members state, but has to act on that. and the islamic revolution revolution neri gotch cops must be listed on the e o tara list. immediately human right groups, belief this could affect these lamid republic. international reactions press shared can still save at mama mama group on his lives. but again, we know also that the running authorities need to execute need to implement this enough to is to spread fear into society because they haven't managed to control to protest. now about 4 months, they're still continuing for the time being mouse,

protests appear to have slowed down in iran, but the anger is still mounting in college protest. us stood their ground despite gunshots being fired. and they vowed to be back chanting until the ballasa gone. our homeland won't be free. you are watching d. w. news coming up next. and d, w, there's asia aid organizations are calling on afghanistan's taliban rulers to make their work easier. i'm terry martin. thanks for watching. ha .
