nurses are always those other people, the ongoing struggle for remembrance and against denial in the land of the perpetrators starts may 6th on d, w. ah, ah, ah ah, this is the w news live from berlin, a long awaited phone call between badging and keith. the leaders of china and ukraine speak for the 1st time since the russian invasion, and a chinese delegation is to visit ukraine for talks on ending the war. also coming up, growing fears of a humanitarian crisis as refugees flee the fighting incident. as opposed truce

again, breaks down plus the youth wing of germany is far right if the party is labeled extremist. the intelligence agency says the young activists are a threat to democracy. ah, i'm glad elf as well come to the program. ukraine's president vladimir zalinski has confirmed he has had a quote long and meaning for coal with the chinese president, she jan ping. it's the 1st contact between the 2 leaders since the start of the war and ukraine. state media are reporting that she told zalinski. negotiation is the only way to end the conflict. the chinese foreign ministry also says it will send a delegation to ukraine to seek a political settlement to the crisis. china is seen as

a key player in any piece process because of its close relationship with russia. so lensky has appointed a new ukranian ambassador to beijing. the 1st in more than 2. yes. yeah. well, yeah, so your total weight and erm i spoke to the wi fi, been freshman bridging, and rom against ranko in keith, about the phone call between she and zalinski and i started basking roman why the phone call took place today. well, we do not know exactly much. oh, what was before this girl was this story round the remarks by the chinese ambassador to france, who seemed to questions, christian ukraine's full independence and also the independence of former soviet republics. he was criticized for bed by eastern can eastern european countries. ukraine restrained from harsh criticism, and now understand why because this phone call was over obviously, being prepared at that time. and this phone call also comes ahead of the much

expected ukrainian offensive. and an it is, it is now a question, how can we talk about it, please fire, or this is the word we're hearing today when ukraine is preparing a major offensive. this is a big question. fabia, let's turn to you in beijing. that is this phone call. you think a sign that china definitely will not send weapons to russia. what, in my opinion, a china set off stage seating thing. he already gave their promise previously. namely when our french president emmanuel mccall and also the funder line, the u. commission president were visiting badging, but i think this call am delivered to really concrete results, namely that china will sent a special envoy of the region of face towards ukraine and, and we'll try to help, you know, find a political solution to what's the crisis. and secondly, china will send you any tarion assistance, but the rest of the talking points and the rest of the rhetoric,

i would say it's not really new. and the overall position of china that it holds a strategic alignment of with russia has not changed. and however, i think that we can, i can only understand this call from a chinese perspective. and when you have to understand that in paging, there's a lot of fear that the relationship towards the european union will turn sour. and then m a china definitely wants to prevent a trans atlantic alignment between brussels and washing. so i think this call is really to improve ties with europe and which is still the biggest trading partner with china. roman and china is moscow's most important ally was zalinski was pushing for this phone call with she does ukraine c badging as a credit, credible partner to negotiate. but despite its close relationship with moscow, well, ukraine still hasn't, doesn't have a clear picture. how is the chinese stand in this war? because we remember just

a few weeks before russia and invaded ukraine in february 22. china and russia signed a very important document, stressing their, their close partnership. then china refused to condemn russia for invading ukraine . net china restrained during several votes in the u. n. a. so it is a very, a symmetrical approach. a symmetrical relations between china and russia, and china and ukraine. russia in china, both members in, in the un security council. so the chinese leader visited moscow just a few weeks ago and had a 3 day state visit, which is very, very, a high level as a top level actually. and he just had a phone call, was the lensky a weeks later. so our, and we remember the chinese and had a few weeks ago, china made public several proposals. kind of a kind of a plan and more than 10 points in it. a saying how this war in ukraine could be

stopped. but are they major each year for ukraine? the issue of the occupied territories was not in those proposal proposals by beijing. so 4 key if the big question is how is pay their beijing m seeing this, this issue? how is it going to be resolved? because the ukraine is not ready to, to agree to negotiations or to a peace settlement and that without lu earth or settling the question of the occupied territories, there is no, no agreement on that here in key. if 5 in a china recently successfully broke it a deal between saudi arabia and iran. does this grand b jane extra credibility in this role? well, that's the message sent. and that baiting wants to convey and that this was really a diplomatic victory, but am in europe, there's a really different view in europe. people say that you can compare the situation with the deal between the saudi arabia and iran. it was

a win win situation abating. had common interest, but am towards ukraine. china is definitely aligned with russia because on the one hand, it has a 4000 kilometer long border with russia and also it needs a strategic partner to challenge the west. so i think a china is not really seen as a neutral a play on this conflict that was fabi and that's where i bought it from beijing and roman gone to wrinkle from keith. hundreds of thousands of ukrainians have been called up to fight since the russian invasion last february. for most it's the 1st experience of the military did. obviously, connelly went to the front line in the east and don boss region to find out how ukraine's citizen soldiers are coping in the trenches. a spring turns wet, snow to mud, keeping upright, even harder than it looks. this forest might seem empty, but it's actually full of soldiers all on the lookout people, lucy,

down because near here the russians are just a matter of a few 100 me to a if on his friend or in your forward position without leaves on the trees, it feels exposed, at least they can see russian units when they approach soon they'll be better hidden, but so will the other side. so what will it take, or the hardest thing is when it's too quiet, it means the russians could be coming on foot, let them give you 10. so be sure, at least when they're firing at us, it means i not sending any of them people our way. luckily with the hot summer tickets for glimmered, be posted. you yvonne will be here for 2 days, 2 nights. that might not seem long, but it's intense and exhausting. 2 hours on watch than 2 hours sleep than watch, again, powered by heat backs and energy drinks. since you feel article about this is, are forced out on the over there. that's the 3 dog. it's still

a work in progress. i said on the 1st day we got here in the shells, hit 2030 meters away. it was incredibly loud. and you could feel everything around you. shaky. a diversion like hundreds of thousands of ukrainian service people, yvonne had never held a rifle before the russians invaded last year. citizen soldiers like him are having to learn fast, lo misses and says to be restored. you have to keep positive to keep your spirits up for 5 lot. otherwise he won't last long. low hon. it's not like we can call our mothers to come and pick us out. oh, yeah, the only one me position. nominate them with all those that with exemplary. this is the main dug out. a cave blasted into the hillside. it's warm and dry and feel safe after the constant stress outside this time the space here to take a breath. for small is less the yield force, we'll get children's drawings like they sent to us. why no one would ever throw

them away with. we keep them with destroying is from a ukrainian child who's a refugee in germany. unless there was a letter thanking us for protecting the same look. hopefully these children will be able to come home soon. lowest put your arms on the board. lou with no heat, no require last year, but right at the beginning of which we found out my wife was pregnant. i became a father during this war. this was the reason i got leave to be there for my son's birthday, but i didn't make it in time, so it all. i was still traveling from the training camp when he was born, there was a move for you on august the 3rd world cardinal. the idea that they're fighting russian now, so that children don't have to is something you hear

a lot from ukrainian soldiers. no one he believes that russia is going to negotiate in good faith. this armored personnel carrier is normally used to bring out the wounded. it knocks its passengers around so much, the soldiers joke, many of the wounded backup new injuries on their way to safety de la virginia watts. it should be that we're here 247 wilcox waiting her call out of where basically she can ambulance, there's just me that we run the risk of being killed, doing our job to meet what not me, of channels we honey, 2 casualties and more than a dozen wounded near us just yesterday, a tumble up, but out got to him. everyone's nerves are shattered. to come up for us, they are new ocean, seen in a starlight. soldiers with extreme psychological trauma, are evacuated out to ross tells us the most have to keep going with the pills or as

much help as they can expect. in his civilian life to ras worked as a neurologist. he knows his way around a medicine cabinet party. jessica shaw, i'm sorry. can you put these are all antidepressants and anxiety medication when you upon you must discharge shem of. i put all this together myself and provide them to anyone who needs them as the symptom which is given that we can only hope to manage the symptoms that he was not the best treatment for anxiety. depression, and stress induced condition is to avoid the treatment. yoletta during war time. that's just not possible nemea, zach theater of nero ship see, i recommend these to every 1 dollar, vomiting, millennium penny, wedding him as washer phantom, all acumen up was him. so he feels heavy and it's not just the patients that are feeling the strain. so to those working here to rest hills as he to has started taking antidepressants kids this will began over a year ago. he's only seen his family for a few days at

a time. c o. when in ulysses, shes at of sierra everyone you've met here so far you were all civilians long at all. sure. my bill is, you know, with all been cold up yet i to advantage of that mouse. a physics are professional soldiers who are in a floors issue. she'll still know that i'm, i'm going to 0 me after that and out doing where. good. so. but it did. obviously, conley filed that report and he told me earlier about the impression the citizen soldiers made on him when he joined them out on the front lights. i think there was something really characteristic and have telling that one of those soldiers told us that basically if you lose your good spirits, you're basically done for your chances of surviving of doing well of not coming out of there with severe trauma are pretty small. so there is a lot of very dark humor, a real sense people just think about the next hour the next day, till the next time they get out for

a bit of rest. a couple of kilometers behind the front lines. and really don't allow themselves too often to think about the big picture, how many months or years this might still drag on to the real sense of camaraderie that you don't get when you meet soldiers who are slightly further away from the front. where the basically, i guess that the pressure and the constant risk will force people from very different back grounds, different experiences to come together and kind of keep each other spirits high. now these people that you've met, there are just average people now in the front lives of fighting for the country and fighting to stay alive. really, how are they coping and how much longer can they hold out using was certainly people will tell you that their initial adrenalin high, that shock after russia's full scale invasion in february 2022 that has now subsided after couple months. that just doesn't continue and now they're having to think a lot more about looking after their health, looking after their mental health, as well as trying to get a bit time,

a bit more time off to spend with their families. that often isn't possible. as we saw that doctor, only see his family for me a number of days at a time, maybe few weeks over the year as a whole. so definitely is a worry. and one thing you definitely do hear from them is their difficulty with readjusting when they go home for a couple of weeks and also see a young man who haven't been called up yet to their opinion going on as if the war hadn't happened. that really is a kind of disconnect between those fighting those risking their lives every day and the people and he's like, he of that can have some kind of normalcy. that really is an issue that is really important to them now and will continue to be even off. this war is over now after more than a year, is there also a fear in the trenches that the world's attention may start to turn away from the conflict? that certainly has been a fear since the beginning. there was a real fear that pretty soon after it began that the west might try to force ukraine some code of comp compromise on moscow's terms. as was the case,

at least according to the ukrainian interpretation back in 2014, that hasn't happened that people do realize that also large numbers of ukrainian refugees in lots of european countries has made this an issue that is very present to people, even thousands of kilometers away from this war, but they are obviously very aware of the fact that ukraine's army is dependent on west weapons cannot carry on without western weapons. and that the government is unable to pay wages. and patients here because of direct financial injections and brussels, are corresponded that need commonly reporting from p. thank you, me time now to have a look at some of the other news making headlines around the world. russia's defense ministry says one of its mic, 131 fighters has crashed in the northwestern mormons region is says the crash happened in an unpopulated area during a training flight and both pilots ejected and remained unharmed. this unverified

video of the plane going down was published on telegraph the former brazilian president joe bolton arrow has been questioned by police for allegedly inciting riots after he lost last talked october's election. boston, our supporters stormed government buildings in brazil. yup. on january 8th, a week after his successor was inaugurated bolton our denies. any involvement in sudan, the fighting between the army and rival paramilitaries has fled on the 2nd day of a supposed 3 day truce. their growing fears of a humanitarian crisis and a prolonged conflict which would further des, stabilize an already volatile region. when fighting broke out in sedans, capital cartoon, in mid april. it's sent shock waves around the world. sudan is a vast country and a volatile region. what happens here has implications for the whole of north east

africa and beyond. sudan is surrounded by 7 countries. all have seen, unrest was all revolutions in recent years. nearly all are still mired in their own internal complex. the un secretary general has warned the entire region could be further destabilized. hundreds of thousands of sudanese refugees could now descend on some of those countries too. so who were the biggest regional players seeking to influence events on the ground? first up, egypt surrounds northern neighbor, is itself and a military rule. it has deep ties to sedans. army commanded by general abdel, fatter by hon. one of the 2 sides in this war. this is bare hon meeting egypt, president, i'll cc late last year. but egypt position is difficult, it depends heavily on investment from the united arab emirates, the next regional heavyweight. and the emeralds are known to support the other side

in this war. sedans, rapids support forces, or r s. f. lead by general mohammed hummed under gallo better known as her medi supporters of sedans. army accused the u. e. of interfering in their countries affairs, although it's only one of a number of players besides egypt and the united arab emirates, powerful saudi arabia has also sought to shape events inside sudan. the saudis have links to both sides, which could make them very influential. they helped broke the latest humanitarian truce together with the united states. the u. s. is one of several international players. washington has tried to shift sudan to democracy and temper russia's influence. moscow has sought to use sudan as a gateway to the rest of africa. this was russian foreign minister, sag a lover of visiting cartoon. in february, the russians are hoping to build

a naval base at port sudan to give them strategic access to the red sea. the russian masonry group, wagner, that's been so prominent in the ukraine war has been active in sudan for years. it's accused of smuggling gold out of sudan. wagner's leader yevgeny brick. gordon denies. having fighters in sudan, but unconfirmed reports say wagner is supplying weapons to r. s. f, the u. n. has urged all security council members to use their influence and sudan to pull both sides back from the brink. and for now, most players appear focused on doing just that. but if the conflict drags on that could change, as various countries compete for influence in this important and volatile region. for all this, that crossover to madness, it is a journalist who has been covering the conflict incident from neighboring egypt,

enjoys his nar from are there now. which of the countries that we've just heard about could have the biggest impact in negotiate negotiating, a sustainable end to the fighting. and saddam arm. i think it's going to take all of them. it's going to take a coordinated effort. but i think how to make, in terms of speaking good people with the saudis, but without a coordinated international response and efforts behind the studies that i don't see, sorry, efforts alone or talk efforts that the saudis, or just to golf initiative spearheads be whatsoever. so i think short answer all of them together, but perhaps based that has maybe a, maybe not a trusted face, or perhaps a face that does have relationships with both belligerents in this conflict as was mentioned. and that report then,

then that might be able to read the most the most success. now, at the end of for saddam, the us special envoy said that he didn't get the feeling that any of the 2 warring factions was interested in negotiating. what would it take? to bring these 2 generals fighting for power, incident to come to an agreement to sit down at a table. yeah, i mean it's difficult. war is always easier to prevent them to stop. and i think they've never showed good faith and coming towards negotiating table. and they usually often use negotiations prior. predating the conflicts, the armed conflict and that within the conflict in order to further cover that particular strategic goals before they were political now, they could be military. at the same time, i think what it will take is potential punitive measures and it needs to have

higher standards than just was in the fighting to give them applause and congratulatory statements and needs to be coordinated efforts that branches from all the countries you mentioned in the report, and i think that includes china and russia here rather than seeing them as strictly adversaries and no solution whatsoever. here we have to merge just the role that they can play and their own interest, perhaps, and bosco, as well as their relationship with china that could be expected here. if this conflict is not contained and, and starts to matter size a little bit. so it has to be a coordinated effort, you know, really across the global community here. there's always going to be one side, if they're part of those efforts, you're willing to conflict, jealous about that. they're in cairo. thank you very much. thank you very much.

germany's domestic intelligence agency has classified the use wing of the countries far right f d party as an extra mist entity and the threat to democracy. the agency began monitoring the group known as the young alternative for suspected extremism in 2019 . the decision could deal a blow to the a f d, which has so far failed and its legal base to block security agencies from observing the party and it's affiliate valesvi and launched about it. earlier i spoke to our political correspondent benjamin of our, his group and asked him why the f d 's youth wing is to be monitored as far weighing far right extremist. now, the head of the federal protection of the constitution said there is no longer any doubt that this a f d youth swing along with 2 other associations. organizations that have been classified as extreme entities are pursuing anti constitutional endeavors. his

badge. and he said this, this youth alternatives that they call themselves designated. one of the things that they mentioned, designated migrants of non european origins is fundamentally impossible to integrate. and as you mentioned, this youth organization has been monitored for several years now. and back in 2018 the party. so the a f d this far i german party announced that 2 of the youth winked in bremond and lower section 2. so 2 german states would be a disbanded after it came to light that they were already under observation by germany's domestic intelligence. it to see what exactly this will mean, and if it will actually mean that the f t party will also half other discussions what this will exactly mean for then it's still to be seen. now, what kind of measures arnold taken against that youth organization and its members? so the classification of a suspected case of right wing extremism already allowed intelligence agents to for

example, tap communication, tap phones, possibly also use undercover informants. this new label allows the authorities to monitor them even more closely, and the chances that the actually make use of this technology is even higher german interior minister nancy phaser today said that the german government is doing everything to drive the fertile soil for extreme right wing it violence saying that the members of the so called new writers, they call it spread nothing but hatred and exclusion against dissidence, against refugees and against people with a history of migration. so there will be new tools that the authorities will now need. but it, this is far from being closed because the off course the discussions will also continue some have been asking to ban it completely. but it's, we've seen with the and p d with another port in germany that has led also to, to other, other discussions that still continue to be held here in the country. but i'm a very briefly, as of in the, any reaction from the f d, which sits in various german state parliament and in the buddhist. all the threats,

the biggest opposition party, the party leaders have slammed this, saying that they are still looking for the relevant documents that make the step this decision comprehensible. at least valentina cappella stress that they are already considering any other legal means to appeal this decision that had have criticized in a statement that the public shortly after this decision was announced. thank you very much. our political correspondent, benjamin of ours with her. thank you. that set you up today to stay tuned for the w news asia with phyllis, a job with with
