the ship so so small the and that's it from me and then those team for an hour. i have an update for you at the top of the hour. don't go away. coming up next is business and don't forget you can get all the latest news on the background or analysis around the truck on a website, dw, dot com is the address and to follow us on social media. if you don't already do, ask dw use, i'm gonna have office, thanks for the really profiteering, instead of responsible for the global business of us pest us. this is knowledge of the people that are in don't deserve to be treated with any kind of

courtesy by the governments of the world. the never ending story of asbestos starts june 21st on dw, a news about how many of my friends of sacrifice their lives. so we can live like folks do in europe. me article is sealed to harvest. community dependence on the flight was michael and dirtier. located us in the summer, we do, everyone does. we weren't, we earn money back and pay taxes. each of us will follow a monthly white working class named around here. we want our own place by doing it right away. everyone's new jerk reaction is close to borders. but these people will reach their destination and when they do what happens then see fit best, nothing to get done. the europe wouldn't be what it is without the work of millions

of immigrants. there were a big part of its history. today the continent is confronted with its biggest wave of migration since the end of world war 2. millions of people have flipped the war in ukraine. on the one hand, europe and europeans are welcoming these refugees from the east with open arms. on the other, for years it is closed, its doors to migrants arriving from the south. turning the continent into a militarized fortress which migrates, they are allowed to cross the use closed borders. this is the big question that divides europe and its inhabitants. it's not just a humanitarian issue, more than ever your needs immigrants to breathe new life into an aging continent. the,

for most europeans, russia's invasion of ukraine came as a shock, a faced with a mass of humanitarian crisis. europe reacted promptly. volunteers from across the continent took action testimony so you can sleep intent one or 2 or 3 within days. countless 8 structures were set up to help relocate refugees across the entire continent. would that be? where are you going to project for the you was ready to help. member states gave refugees the opportunity to work and attend school right away. neighboring poland remains especially committed since the war began.

connect goods population alone has risen by more than 15 percent. most every family in poland does helping ukrainian refugees in one way or another in keys in k, as in keith to, to defend circle of schools. they shut down a rocket today and this you to a residential building. again. i'm going to groceries 5 minutes away from me. can you imagine? yeah, yeah, yeah. so i so i heard everything will be all right. it will i can use going to be that's got worked for a museum in clack, of wins. on the 2nd day of the war, she drove to the ukrainian border and brought back 2 bus loads of refugees. that is not so raw bedding, he and we desperately need a cabin to ensure the goal is coming in. she and some friends turned a former university building into a makeshift hospital. it provides accommodation and support for up to $200.00

refugees, mainly women and children. before they continue on their journey, which most of the some parts of the area isn't perfect because it was set up in 2 days with money from private soon and i'm not about maybe that's why it has this to me feel to is. so can you hold on for one that was still working on it, but it was still the day now the 1st full, these women dream is going back home. think 1st they've come here. we got very little luggage of my own people, the base they got somebody else lives. they all hope the war will be able to see what the problem is. and i just hope that off of your appeals continue to sustain that goodwill case. the who lost a loan, which i'm dreading who is a nice just we may need the compassion and open heart from emotional nebraska there such as those each of the ukrainian refugees are benefiting from a surge of empathy and solidarity. but your, it isn't always as welcoming to those who see gets help crossing borders into the

e. u is proving increasingly difficult. many member states have build walls since the fall of the berlin wall at 1989 more than 1000 kilometers of new barriers have been erected in europe between greece and turkey. between hungary, croatia, and serbia. in stay with the many between morocco in spain, and in 2021. 187 kilometers of barbed wire were added between bellows and poland. p or migrants are constantly turned away. the, it's not just the walls and fences that keep potential intruders out. satellites and drones monitor the waters in and around the u. this is the river every 500 kilometers long. it costs a 2, it's a natural border between greece and turkey. it's also one of the most dangerous

entry points into your the, the river is constantly watched the greek police and army patrol it with the help of front tax the european border and coast guard agency. but this device of security comes out of cost. the you and greets, have invested billions of europe and reinforcing border controls. the latest development this 40 kilometer long steel barrier meant to keep out any would be intruders. in recent years, thousands of people have tried to get across the girls board. many of them have also fled war in syria, afghanistan, or e d o p. and they aren't welcomed everywhere with open arms. was in that me been in illegal immigrants are a daily problem. the unfortunately,

a big problem. they shouldn't be allowed in at all. when you may as well, if you like us, i'm a member of the national guard. well, there are many of us here at the city of the any time the army needs us, we're ready to listen to most of them at the upload. we learned about weapons, you know how to shoot of everything that's needed to go without pay. of course, we do it for our country and for our families argumentative illegal immigrants cause any trouble, government. we know what to do, but hopefully that won't happen. and it will cost us to heidi i this is a farmer and cafe owner in a village near the river address as a child, he lived for several years in germany, when his parents couldn't find work in greece, as he knows himself what it means to be an immigrant, but for him there is no comparison. okay. we thought we were economic immigrant.

this in the germany was looking for workers and as you become a lot of them as a we didn't sneak into the country. if we'd been unable to find a weren't able to go, yeah, we would have come back home. so, but that is the most. as we weren't there, glutamate taxes like anyone else. we did some deal or anything to the approval. i left here when i was in 5th grade, i was in the beer hall. i'd hear german say, pardon the expression. the greeks are here to me and i also experienced racism and work on it. just went abroad, you're always a foreigner, that never stops that declination of channels within the above. if the whole day at

some point you will experience racism in order to support those here in grace on them. i feel like i found my family again. so really my mama, my home country, but there is, i'm the, is that we've done been going through and don't, you know, there's some talk some, and it sounds like during most see me soon to be. so what is the so the going to have? so what is the western europe's post more economic would scarcely have been possible without its so called guest workers, mainly from turkey and greece. they were only meant to stay for a while yet many settled permanently and brought their families. these guests became fellow citizens,

which wasn't easy for either side. the but it's under the parents came to germany in 1968 and 69. this my father arrived in munich and 68, then went on to cologne. my mom came 6 months later, i most of our problems with the documents are not so life for the use of and finally started in cologne. 150 for me to use to then go go to the category with was the mr. finance, which that they could start for my the, i'm at the time of the good stuff kind of all my pop up. com 90. 1 of them from teach does the estimate of deutsch, my dad came to germany for the 1st time in 1958 as a guest worker. and a factory for his dream was always to earn money here in deutschland, and go back home to naples and a mercedes to them. then people would say, look at penny. no, he's made it. he's a big man now a ghost, i'm on. fortunately that didn't happen as you know, because my dad still lives here. healy but still i feel both from the

a pilot and from cologne, both equally, a part attracted by hudson and then pushed the button. i know people phone came down to cuz we were quite in the group of kids, michael connell, director donations moroccans, greeks, spaniards on few mission. want to me. we were all the same time on those. come, i'd say a few scripts on me to meet these and it was only much later that we started to feel uncomfortable here on monday as foreigners in double. they called me spaghetti eater, before macaroni eat, or when he flips a minute. it's an i'm, it's my parents told me i must be need to be 10 times more in germany than the germans for them to accept you. production is active to focus on your ridiculous months of guns, too difficult to come on. so there's almost that was the summer of 1999, the one glossy and under the bookstore. and i wrapped lyrics by encouraging le quaker and then one of a set a month that started a rough group. so we found

a microphone mafia right on the spot to your microphone. much it is when the visa visa, as we loved this, music's i'm for me because we could identify with the people who made it tom much the she does punted, you didn't need any ex events, some instruments to mentor, just on pen and paper. ultimately the field and shift decline as you move from existing beyond the 16 year olds from that place are still in a somewhere. and their dreams have changed to move to the music, live in sync with the guns nagging next sunday, we realized right away that drop has this power to reach people. home is human, old people identify with our lyrics with our music. so we said ok, let's wrap about our lives through the but the stuff we weren't able to talk about even the by the see any a to clinton go. it was who is good. the

supposed to be towards germany, gave me and my parents a lot 30 years ago. i see she including a certain way of thinking these are some of the traditional is, is a bit from the left a bit from the right within, but also a bit out of the box. ok. because there are so many cultures here on using the this, what is, what was the voltage and for years they expected us to integrate, how much more can we do? we go to school work, your kids go to school. here was the parents that so much for this country on women that they're still saying personally, you must have integration that's being passed on to the next generation. but now there are people traumatized by war suffering and death. there's keke, there's to so we as a majority society issue that to which i believe we now belong to much of welcome people 1st until that's essentially how many men and women are willing to do anything to reach you. but the reality is only

a tiny fraction of the making every year, thousands of migrants drowned trying to cross the mediterranean. more than 20000 between 20142021. a tragedy that europe has grown accustomed to these dots represent the number of bodies that have been recovered to many fines are never registered. despite the dangers and all the efforts to discourage them, some migrants do manage to reach europe, shores. se do deal as one of them by obama. well, originally from senegal, he passed through libya before reaching spain by boat. some of them, most of us get us thomas. and yes,

we're the ones who picks the fruit guys. mendosa is the reality. you see here at home and lot for the best on the meek and on every one. picking fruit is an imagery, although we'll get the comment. everything that you eat and enjoy it home with your families. so it's gonna disappear, like people who are suffering little then just so you know, the in the just look all of the phone info on s o head to get the label received miserable wages and suffer a sofa in which they don't have decent housing and funding that people are living under plastic sheets and police has made from wooden pallet because somebody called one pallet that might add a bedroom. i assume in the winter it's freezing, cold and summer scorching holidays. get him to 1.8 and he can't ever relax like that. as but as soon shameful and not better when everyone prefer so looks the other way. it benefits just this didn't exist side open with, you know, he didn't,

that's the reality weiss, we already know they could at least build alternative housing or and because there are tons of solutions better than this one. what i'm just most certainly shown is me. holidays getting it is a good simone we deserve for spec, basically mississippi bound to be treated with dignity and would do me seek on the bits of humana. cigna. juanita essentially gave me this is the industrial part. he laughed associated espanol in spanish. society should understand that when we are contributing to onto the we do, everyone does look at that. we weren't, couldn't, we are earning money and paying taxes. it's almost well, but on the eve, us the say do deal is a member of us and we'll see an association that provides aid and advice to migrants. also campaigns for better working and living conditions,

the si se, se give up to me. if i some new so you can build a shelter to host 40 men and women. but if you will say that, then the authorities and the politicians could do even more because no point enough here to must guess to is a gesture to show they have no more excuses than most that i can. i must exclusives the conditions on some farms in southern europe are reminiscent of those in the days of slavery. cheap workers for cheap food in which you're the luckily there are farms where labor relations are more equitable and valid. gonzales as far migrant workers are treated with respect model. they over the when i was in school, there was them like re to re workforce coming from within spain. you did zillow. my

father had a team from civil engineering away from the villages in tennessee and they came just to pick, store, brought up local, say to the producer out of the same type again. you know, now this just a small percentage of spanish workers and the rest of for molly, rural cohort to go and full of area of the do i able to body you know, is that all of you? how's it going to? is the fruit. okay. for the yang yes. more or less? oh man. a lot of in that. yeah. so lots button don't a ton a ton because then what do we do then? pay them black. paint them into the yes much in the didn't didn't go to see some 75 or 80 percent if the work is on not from spain. 80. and then the harvest clearly depends on the flow of migrant on the agreement that the

countries have made. and how this is being handled geopolitically, we're going to take him on the 20 percent of workers in spain, from the agricultural sector come from other countries. mainly from outside the u. the statistics are similar in many other member states. what, what europe do without migrant workers, there's a backbone of its economy. caregivers cooks careers, doctors by 2 specialists. there's also another argument to be made for immigration. europe is aging, and demographers are sounding the alarm soon. there won't be enough young people in europe to ensure its prosperity and standard of living a decade ago for workers secured the pension of one retiree. by the year 2060, there will be just 2 working people for every retiree. this taking demographic time

on poses a threat to every country in europe. the projection show that if germany wants to maintain growth and preserve its social systems, it needs to take in 400000 migrants a year. that's why, since 2013, the country has welcome some 2600000 refugees. what integrating them is not always easy for the new commerce, for their host country. both need to be open to what can be a long process. in berlin, the restaurant be an angel, is a project set up to promote integration, a run by a charity. it was founded by former journalist under they asked to come, i know my nest, i'm not suppose use here. is that either you might have been to, my standard line is here to pay my pension divide. i'm the typical old white german male. i'm 61 clinton and related to the next generation to keeping confidence. in

my old age, i thought so far as it was being injured, it's 5000 attempts to be an angel was founded in 2015 due to the humanitarian emergency situation and lack of support and religion which has since developed even further. we've placed 900 people in apprenticeship programs and around the same number and jobs. and this empower, aim is empowerment. we want to people to be able to live their own lives without our house. yeah, i can just leave them feeling good. yeah, i mean i know we have see thing for 110 people high, but we have 7 trainees right now. our team consists of 16 people from 10 nations. we only work with refugees. goofiest that's the name of the war in syria forced us to flee,

but after we settled into refugee housing, i started running jim and anna ivan applied for official papers. i've got them right now as luna. hello. you said that was with everything. okay. good. since i missed you, did you miss me? we missed you 2 such as the mother as a global, i registered as a language school and needed to reach be one of the 2 levels of it. money, any gym and certificates go a long way. here. i looked for a suitable career where i learned cooking was my passion when i started working here making decisions for the restaurants and to react them account at the very yvonne. so how did you get on with the interviews with a okay. see if for this the yes. okay. and easy for me. yeah. but you're still not happy and feel free 9 by. it's been feeling close to shall know. because i'm

34 years old after i graduated in 2 months ago on the which means i'm a young chef nations on this head. so i'll only behave what a young shepherd fuzzy which is disappointing thing. it's been a thirst. i guess i understand this up as far as i have experience on the certificate that shows i've done an internship. yeah, the photo is thing is i think 2 years experience should be enough to get a good starting salary. will say, yes, i'll keep trying. the advice of the in the spring of 2022 under they just took and this team began bringing ukrainian refugees, which led to poland. and we'll go over to germany. for years, people from countries bordering eastern europe have immigrated to the but until now

for other reasons. this footage was shocked in the summer of 2021. at the bottom. yes. check point on the ukraine. poland folder every day, thousands of ukrainians lined up to go to work in poland. it shows even before the war broke out, how close ties were between the 2 countries, the 6 months later ukrainians were lining up again. this time to sleep, hooton's army and to regain their lost freedoms and safety. things can change incredibly quickly. within the e u. people move from one country to the next without giving it much thought the. it's easy to forget that this freedom is an achievement. and that the free movement of peoples is one of the pillars of the european idea of the one that's also foster decades of economic growth most and was as you know in

1999 the rasmus program finally arrived in romania. i'm going to thoughts. i'm going to see i applied for us and managed to get a scholarship. most of the one i booked on a romanian architect, living and belgium is one of those who has benefited from the idea of a unified you're up to now i'm still with you and i didn't know what leaving romania for you meant back in 1999 open to been thrown on, she asked on some, not it meant tons of paperwork was not successful. copays medical tests and other things to get my visa automatically consulting. visa. she the purchase of the whole process was so she, many i seen and so tedious that when i listen to that, it was such a relief for me. i said to myself, i'm thank god you're out. i because you guys know, no, i didn't want to go back. that's how mad i wasn't romania,

romania. she got almost at the moment but i left behind my family and very many friends. but i did miss the people. yes. on and off was the cause isn't when i arrived and live and they didn't know much about romania and looked at me oddly the to dots and to go. they associated romanians was biggest thieves, dangerous people who want to hunt belgian roland. all been genuine and they'd say your from romania could you go up new wise? awesome someone with a voice from that said a little scheme, but that will change when romania joined. do you use a company now that bills and i'll submit will remain in um, i want to take as little thing. it's not just your thoughts. i believe they're holding it has changed. but let's, let's keep bob besides lou liberty in front of me. this was actually my own, m a h. the use most diversity around 75 percent of brussels residents are foreigners or have foreign roots to move forward. so if you go, no,

you're not viewed as the foreigner and brussels is to really you just one of its inhabitants. i'm going to model when the state romania is still not able to protect its citizens, adopt belgium is the bought up and who comes to the felt free because for the 1st time in my adult last i knew i was safe. a super 5. that's the very sight to being european should offer a system protection solution sent and the feeling that we can live online signature on the 2007 was a crucial year for romania, along with the gary of the country joins the european union. many romanians immediately took advantage of this opportunity and left their homeland the it's in the bottom, you don't have that a one click ok, almost a full beacon romanians have immigration. that's

a huge number with the remaining immigrants. ok. so the only initially confirms the owner as a euro box on all the construction site site visits. i hear people speaking, remaining that simple one go to. these are the romanian people cannot shut off the bill and feed you especially for some of the so many romanian intellectuals who lifted this to the korea. so for the, for the cost those continua, i think that the for so no, no, no, no far the 3rd issue, the example, for instance, when i go to any hospital clinic and brussels, nico doesn't exist though i always see the name and some romanian doctor for us avoid met the doctor on some leave. others stay as such. mass exit is of workers have left ghost towns and deserted areas all over europe. here in red,

we can see the regions that are losing the most inhabitants. mainly in eastern europe. people are moving to more prosperous areas with more promising job markets in blue on the map. it's especially greenville guerria, which has lost 15 percent of its population in the last 20 years. and it's predicted that by 2040, over 30 percent of bulk areas will have left the country, making it the fastest population decline of any country during peacetime. c altis in the mid of, of a lease or something that assessment. this village is located in southeastern bulgaria and if we know to c o 2 near the volt gary a turkey border, she had a in the past and she, there were 1200 inhabitants in new, but as of now unfortunately. so there are just 35 people left out to cool 3. she pitched to be

jealous. unfortunately, for villages located far from the city. so that's what happens you to it's the great migration that the people die it out to you, but no babies are born generally. that's all there is to it. fine. good. my english you quarter to the brack of there was a pop where we will gather the v. they threw great counties, newman look now they're a new celebration for the new policies. nothing new. good. and everyone stays at home. they do me. there's no way to go to, you know, one to say a few words to no one to tell any stories to know so. so inside been i have a son who's now living in from for to if he comes in once every 3 months that didn't make that very nice of use the me do you a good tax life feeling for gotten into a band and it's a frustration that doesn't just eat

a way of people in southern and eastern europe. this feeling of abandonment also exists in economically troubled parts of western and northern europe to black and red car in the northeast of england, which has fallen on hard times. so the cult merrier. read cat a as in the top 3 percent of deprivation, the country we've ida, numerous amounts of on function happenings over the years that the made our area so create for those that revision scales still works have been around for around about 170 years. unfortunately, 2015, it was like large dr. steele and, and unfortunately it died. my dad was in the state

and see if it's 36 years and i've got friends who have been in the epithet yard. yes. it really didn't get a lot of names, confidence it was, you know, had been made the find the state of the world. and now you know they were going to be told to go out there going cautious to be the rest is and it will make coffee and sound legit say, you know they saw these james and it was just it just devastated people that really did devastate people frankly wales runs a charity that's trying to bring a ray of hope back to the people of red card, the former box or has made his boxing club a pillar of his organization. the classes are very popular with the local youngsters. there's not much else for them to do in town.

at cobham hall, franky wales organizes a variety of events that provide entertainment and good cheer. most people here feel far removed from what's happening in the major cities. in 2016, the majority of red cars residents voted for breakfast brakes. it was very important for us. 71 percent of the people in this town voted to leave. people are at the point where they would just like somebody to listen to the. so we need to change, i believe that's why i'm, i don't know how i said i'm not an economist, but if, if i gave the european union a pound and they gave me some depends back. you know, i'd go on a minute based off the pens going. so i'm, i'm quite happy for, for us to spend our own money, make our own laws. we want the industries to come back. we want our own place by

no pay. and the lack of jobs across europe, people in disadvantaged regents feel neglected and let down by their governments and elected officials. some politicians target these fevers and frustrations. here, anti immigrant rhetoric finds receptive years. it slogans and policies divide, not just communities, but all of europe itself. still, poland is an example of how quickly things can change. after it joined the you in 2004 many poles left to work in britain or other member states for wages and standards of living or higher. but many have since returned. and not just because of breakfast, the business is booming, and poland in 2021. it had the 9th largest economy in all of your the city of which,

once known as the manchester of poland, exemplifies this transformation. kasha hollis is one of the many emigrants who returned home to be part of this upswing. if that's of i'm of the i was working at the daycare center. i just, i thought if i were ever to go back to poland, i do for one like that. the parents, children were not going to show them how to learn languages and how much fun a daycare can be. gimme a can also find that the kids wouldn't even want to go home with the adults was the main reason why i came back for 10 of them. but i was to, to stop my own business or show others what i learned in my years abroad. and bring it back to bone and collect the push but, but it didn't work out. unfortunately, you said, you know, so i've ended up with about this child but polls returning from abroad can't make up for the labor shortage caused by the economic boom. pollings ruling law and

justice party, which is traditionally very anti immigration, was forced to turn to a neighboring ukraine. when the scenes were found, nearly every employee at holland as barber shop was ukrainian. the others are to test again. i was studying in the ukraine function, but i quit because they didn't see my future, their take home. that's why i moved here together with my girlfriend. she talked me into coming. see, i'm a came here together to study in the studio which left to the dentist is one of the many ukrainians who come to poland to work and finance their studies if the day is that. so that's a, that's over to look at 1st i worked at mcdonalds and stuff, even the worst job is still better here. and let me know if it's not like you can live a normal life, even on the lowest wages and reflect that one's not liking ukraine. no kidding,

it was like say tell him to say i have come here to stay since i didn't come just to work and go back later wrong because i feel a little bit of both. sure, hulu, and you create in for lucky a cool could i have sent you an apple. so by the end of the business, i'm assuming i knew him a moment about this. and we also just come to think if we see things the same way. if you have similar views as i say, but you premiums have more in common with post them with russians and my and vince, the reason they when you're just flows, orient themselves to the west in that way of life isn't on you for spectrum those

ukraine is not like that can't really go either because you're going to use the phone and do some more research on it. but now that it is part of the, the so the compact to ukraine, you, which is still hoping to get into the new because from my vision of, if we don't hear, it was in the summer of 2021 life and poland seemed full of promise for julia and denis, 7 months later, russia's invasion of ukraine changed everything. while you're here with desperately trying to get her family out of ukraine, dennis was nowhere to be found. his cell phone wasn't working, the ukrainians, clean their country, have now been granted temporary protection in the u. this emergency measure it gets all ukrainian citizens the right to live and work in any new country. the

we got the waste of the hospital. i think many ukrainians will stay in europe on the behalf, so many will come back to rebuild the cream. so the resurrected door. what did you mark the machine? what are people are dying just so that we can live freely man is not like under that tyrant. in russia, the probably sooner we'll take meal and bathroom breaks on route. great, thanks. welcome to the age of which we want to live, like people in europe do freely in a democratic country under the rule of law. oh, that's some kind of tomorrow for me. yeah. which is that if we want to be law abiding to walk, we want to work to rebuild you crazy to talk you. if you would not be to. there's no doubt that we want to live like in europe. many of my friends sacrificed their lives. so we can live like folks do in europe, we use a job to submit like an evil empire. some studies law

doesn't meet the person who missed the life without democracy and freedom isn't an option to you. and then we will live in europe for them. that's what unless you call me and that's why it was easy to and that's why that's why our families are fighting. this poor people will always move in search of security freedom and a better life. both within and outside of your migration changes, not just migrant slides. but things in their host, countries to send to me then let me get on some now to some bought it to me. immigration was myself ation responsive. i dare say i was privileged mike in the meantime, over the past 20 years, i've come to the conclusion that this privilege works both ways that you want any

kind of meaning that those welcoming immigrants enjoy this privilege to let you, that there were revitalizing falls for us with the the helps and hills of society. i consider this a good thing. the europe most recent gets immigration policies from a humanitarian and practical point of view. the crisis in ukraine has shown that the you can welcome large numbers of refugees swiftly and efficiently. rather than leaving them in limbo for years, the europe needs to find new ways to receive and integrate people. these migrants have rights and want to be seen as future fellow citizens. many are already living and working on the continent. they are europeans to the
