the u. s. supreme court strikes down affirmative action, moving race cannot be used as a factor in college admissions. and media reports say, one of russia's top generals has been arrested over last weekends fails, results. survey serv. beacon is said to have had advanced knowledge of the rebellion, the hello, i'm clear, richardson, thank you very much for joining us. we begin with renewed unrest following the fatal shooting of a teenager near paris. police have used tear gas to disperse protesters after a vigil march for the victim who's been identified as now and he was shot dead during a traffic stop on tuesday and anger over the shooting has been fueling days of riots. the officer who fired the shot has been charged with voluntary homicide. a

17 year old. now use mother need a fire crowd and what started as a peaceful apology for his son. but simmering team. sions. voyle's own people through projectiles that police who used to guess the vigil tuning to vandalism, to some as cause. we're again see, so light, it's the 3rd day of and raced over. now you're killing all the officer who shot him has now being charged. some say the problem goes much deeper. when it's on the do you live in france, which is supposed to be in the quality freedom fraternity. but that doesn't exist anymore. the police make the rules and do what they want. if they decide to kill somebody and they just don't do it the truth, because i would like it to never happen again. it shouldn't be possible to die like this for no reason. i wouldn't want it to happen to my own children. my oldest is

11. it could be him in 5 years dying from a gun should, would this really needs to stop public storage. these have struggled for days to control. riots is probably chased as have been to town whole outside the northern city of leels with public transport and paris. also try and get to it. a trim and bus services and super regions have been shut down early. cool. maybe there are other ways of discussing this problem, rather than making trouble for people going to work. when he comes in metal. the government is deploying 40000 offices and sees that will take a 0 tolerance approach to any torch things that the mother and a dozen police stations are bad rags have been attacked. they have shown great professionalism and very difficult condition city. and i want to read it to the

right of my support and confidence in them. i am standing by that side or just shut up with the interest receiving just use have been announced in some areas on the outskirts of paris. and so far as he's brace for more fury and dw reporter lucio schultz and joins us now from paris. with the latest of the police officer who has admitted to shooting, the teenager has now been provisionally charged. what more can you tell us about that? here you mentioned that he has been provision be charged. that means he is the investigation right now. the voluntary homicide, there's means they're still looking into the case trying to establish it. his lawyer has been saying, according to local media, that he has been acting in a legal ray and that this was justified by law virus, the prosecutor from the great that he does not think that the conditions for um,

for illegal ray has been fulfilled there. so this, is there any, the beginning of legal proceedings, and this will be later decided in court that these protests are about nile, but they're also about allegations of systemic racism inside french law enforcement . tell us more about what protesters have been demanding of the so um a lot of protesters and refer to it uh, already in the, in the report um, audi monitoring for just as for now in the 1st place. but then there will, it's a lot of people saying, well, the police cubes, and of course you have to distinguish a little bit. there has been protesters that are peaceful. the big part of the people have been peaceful that went to this much today. and then you have, of course, people that are not that peaceful and behave seems quite some damage also over the last nights. and these people might also be angry and they might ask for something else and then just just, just for now. so it is an expression of

a deep rooted anger. you can also see it as it is going against the signs of the stage to such as pretty stations or schools. so i think that's important to mention there that it is just a small minority yet. there's been a huge police response. can you tell us exactly what we've been seeing there? yeah, that has been an announcement that over this night there will be 40000 people all over the country around paris, a booby, 9000. this is a very big police response. going to be sent in onto today. earlier. we have seen a lot of policemen all over the place secure in the perfect year. um, and they've been dispersing to you guys later against the um, if they call it to you cuz there's people that come and break things on on voluntarily like they, they come to, to destroy things. well, thank you very much for reporting. that is, was the actual time reporting for us. i appreciate your time. a while the u. s.

supreme court has struck down a formative action ruling that race cannot be considered as a factor in college and university admissions. the courts, conservative majority vote, the race conscious admissions programs at harvard and the university of north carolina were unconstitutional. really overturn the president many institutions had use for decades to boost minority enrollment. president joe biden has sharply criticized the court's ruling and defended race contract admissions policies. i believe our colleges are stronger when they're originally diverse. our nation is stronger because we use we because we are tapping into the full range of talent, this patient. i also believe that well, talent, creativity is hard work, are everywhere across this country, not equal opportunity. it is not everywhere across this country. we cannot let this decision be the last word one after that, we cannot let this,

this is be the last word. all the court can render and it says you cannot change what america stands for. america is an idea, an idea unique in the world, idea of hope and opportunity possibilities of giving everyone a fair shot. i'm leaving know behind. let's get more now from our washington bureau chief, n s o n s. this is a major decision by the west supreme court. is it the nail in the coffin for affirmative action? the best? i think that's fair to say as a routing officer all and so the k decades long practice of affirmative action, the universities could take grace into account in order to improve diversity, as you also uh, just mentioned that we have to keep in mind, click affirmative action 1st, made its way into policy in the 1960 is that was been all white school and slowly began admitting minority students. yeah. important to keep the historical context

in perspective there too. um, we do have reports that president biden may be looking into some kinds of executive action. what can he realistically do now that the highest court in the land has made this rolling around providing present biden pledge that today supreme court ruling is not the last word. what we also heard in this little clip. uh you were just playing that leaves open the lot of question about what he really will do. a be young, the new recommendations for colleges and universities wish the department of education, but the positive justice will put out within the next $45.00 days or so. you know, clear, the president biden has long been opposed to expanding the supreme court, but this decision today decision, today's decisions along with last year's abortion decision really might increase

expectation from democrats to do so. and the president said to report us off to his statement, i followed him via this is not a normal court. my point in that very direction road, but of course, this is a process which would not have happened overnight. yes, from remarks there from president bite. and what other kind of reaction have we seen to this ruling so far as well? pretty predictable ones. so many republicans appraising that decision 1st and forefront. donald trump, who implemented the 3 a supreme court justices who made this decision possible. he said, this is a great day for america. on the other side, we have not only democratic lawmakers who harshly criticized the ruling, but also former president brock obama. michelle obama, who put out a strong statement. michelle obama who attended talbert herself. rhodes, today my heart breaks for any young person out there who's wondering what the

future holds. and then they are clare asian american students who basically brought the case to the supreme court. they applauded the ruling and say, had made the argument that high achieving asian americans has been discriminated as a formative action, plans, preferred other minorities over them. so we have a whole wide range of reactions of 2 days supreme court decision. so thank you for bringing us up to speed that dw is in his poll in washington dc. and we can get you updated now with some other headlines. breaking news around the world. active as of storm. the swedish embassy in baghdad in response to a copy of the crew on being burned at the most in stockholm social media video showed thousands of people inside the embassy courtyard. sunset fire to a rainbow flag representing the eligibility to floss, community the german car maker. audi says it's

a new crane. so a sort of you can nickname to genuine and get in for his brutality. putin sent him to ukraine to turn the tide. how he took command of an army in christ is in retreats and reeling after defeats on the battlefield. sort of the can pick on making his reputation in chechnya into to thousands where he ordered reprisals against civilians. he then commanded forces in syria in support of his government. he or the silver brutal bombing of rebel held a lat. pole in 2016. the following year preaching avoided him. the hero of russian metal. the country is highest on the with sort of vague, in income on the new crane. russian forces change tactics as winter sets in.

they've begun to target ukraine's energy infrastructure. plunging millions into darkness and cold and leaving them without water to 10 was pleased giving. so it'd be can yet another metal. but just a month later, he believed he must command this man. the navy color scheme of took his job. and so the beacon became his deputy. when the volcanic group made it small search on moscow sort of beacon loyally towed the line. yep. is that still not urge you to stop doing your go to 0 to the enemy is just waiting for the internal political situation one to worse than in our country. now the question now is whether he knew more than he was letting on from war on this story. let's get a comment from john. at tigers, a retired brigadier general,

who recently served as assistant deputy undersecretary of the us air force international affairs. thank you so much for taking the time to speak with us today for an out of a person which we should say. there is no official confirmation of the fate of serve and candles. it looked a hugo like putting has started cleaning house. so i think the biggest surprise in this is that we haven't seen more harsh measure, measure slides. i do believe that he's probably been detained, that is being investigated. but really what, who needs to do to re establish his authority is something that is far more grandiose. than just a couple of interrogations and arrests. and i'm surprised we haven't seen that in the last 4 days or so. indeed, if it is true that serve you can, one of russia's top generals knew about the mutiny and didn't try to stop it. what does that tell us about putting his grip on power here as well? i think if you're going to be an authoritarian, you need to have authority and i think it's interesting to see that there are probably many that's sympathized with precautions,

thoughts about frustration and how that word mute phrase is played out. and i think it indicates that this authoritarian leader into probably has a whole lot less authority then maybe we would have expected 6 days. what would you have potentially expected from putting into a search at authority? so i think that he needs to do some in order to do what to does successfully be very strong and strident in his crackdowns amongst those within the security establishment in russia to demonstrate his authority and to per job. those that are not oil. and the fact that he doesn't, our hasn't done that up to this point is probably indicative of the fact including himself, questions, whether he has the authority. and it has the ability to actually track down to the extent that he thinks that he probably needs to. so let's talk about the stakes here. um we've heard joseph burrell that used top diplomat warning that a weaker pool is 8th grader danger. what is your take is a more unstable russia, a more dangerous russia here. i think in this case group has

a couple of options. one of them would be to undertake this crack down, but i think maybe he's showing part of now. but i think if he ultimately wants to begin authority, yes, to do something more grandiose. and one of those things could be the last out externally, outside of russia. i think that's the danger that joseph is talking about there. but i think the better play for guten would be to undertake the craft down amongst the security forces there on russia. and may be considered using this as a pretext to bring troops home from a feeling or a new crane. and show more security establishment presence on the streets of moscow and around russia. and i think one of those things is the only play for now. and hopefully we'll take the one that's more reasonable by bringing troops out. how likely do you think that could be as an outcome? yes, i think ultimately prudent is looking at himself in the mir and thinking about the last 16 months and ukraine. and i think he realizes that, well, maybe we would have otherwise thought the time was on the side of russia in this

war, that probably now is more apparent that time is on the side of you crate. and that the longer it takes for them to establish his aims in ukraine, the less likely he is to be able to hold onto the authority that he desires and may be. now this is the right pre test for him to pull troops home and establish his presence within russia instead of meddling outside of rush. well, thank you very much for taking the time to speak with us on dw news that is retired for a good day or general and john tigers. really appreciate your insights. next class how's the turmoil in russia is dominating a 2 day? somebody you've leaders in brussels meeting got underway with the head of nato, highlighting what he calls divisions and rushes leadership. boosting native defences and for him of a to create are also top priorities. at this time, your leaders will come to a special guest at the meeting in brussels. nato secretary general just started back about the ongoing war and ukraine,

made it seem necessary to show unity between the trans atlantic alliance and the european union. especially due to the recent events that may have been a result of the week on the demo site spots. there are tracks on the distance within the russian system. at the same time, it is important to underlying that these are internal and the russian matters. however, you need to stressed that the block had to further step up support for ukraine, financially, militarily, and on the humanitarian side. so this is off the door, it is important that we look carm's and say, we are ready to hold i for a long time to hide, especially those sharing a border with russia like listening. you see the will, could spill over stressing the need to be of defense. the fights are agreed. so based cdo, you'll notice i call them like this. they could be an emergency in bella luce at

any moment and nobody knows. then they codes don't again stuff besides carne said li just also discussed your friends, future, a possible nature and a membership on how to rebuild the discharge country. i think it says fundamentally wrong that our tax payers get to pay for something that we haven't cost it has to be on russia. it has to get a come from their assets. the use new migration policy is also on the agenda, the summit, as well as the question how to get less dependent from countries like china. but with a war raging on the blocks doorstep, it has been is and will be for the see of the future. your crime and item detox and our brussels corresponding jack pack is reporting for us from that summit. jacqueline standing events in russia over this last week and our of course,

front and center. what have we heard from e u leaders. this has been a really interesting one. this feels a bit more like a brainstorming exercise on an information sharing summit. that the decision making summit, we've heard from a number of different leaders saying that they're very concerned about the wagner group. now, being stationed in by the rou, send insights, we've heard, and you officials telling us to, in the room some of the use the to is. we don't know how many would like to designate that fall, integrate as a terrorist organizations that wouldn't have too much of an effect. it would be much more symbolic. the wagner group is already on the sanctions phrase actions in ukraine. but what they want to do is show a strong stones that the wagner group is not going to be accepted while they're worried about is that it can spill items. so some of the use member states that may the batteries. i also understand the lead is going to be talking about exactly what happened was that going to do going forward. as we've heard these crux in this,

the russian structure have been very clearly shown off to the events over the weekend. but one thing for the i've heard from officials on politicians in many of the you, capitals, is that, that needed to be more in intelligence and information sharing that this kind of cool people a little bit by surprise. and i think the leaders here in brussels are discussing that how exactly they can make sure that they get on the same page quickly. and that they have a clear understanding of 1st thing, how it affects themselves. they've always said that they don't want to interfere with russian internal affairs, but obviously with the amount of money that is being going from e u. countries to support the war effort and ukraine. they want to know how to that effect that will ukraine's kind of offensive efforts. yeah, that response is a fascinating aspect of it. i also understand they are trading views on how europe can best position itself toward china. are there any developments there or no?

yeah. what we know is that the, the discussions on china are really based around trade and high b. you wants to read itself off of a reliance on chinese resources. specifically for things that go into the green transition. but we know that the lead is, as well as steadily one thing to try and run pop pressure on beijing to force it to use it is power over most go or at least this relationship with the russians to bring an end to the what we saw last week the you sang some chinese companies that were deemed to be supporting the war effort, the russian more efforts in ukraine. i mean, so we know that there's going to be discussions about that. china is kind of a thread running through this summit is an agenda item on its own, but it's also playing in to many of the other discussions that the leaders are having here in brussels, which are part. thank you very much. as always for your reporting. speaking of china, it has been a 3 years a since beijing improved a national security law on hong kong. a greatly restricted the cities autonomy,

activists say, art and culture in the territory are suffering as a result of fear of arbitrary arrest for so called suspicious publications. has forced many artists to flee abroad or correspondent when he sung reports from the okay. once upon a time, sherman walter but his followers into sheep village. they took over the village and started to eat the sheep. but the sheep resisted. this children's book was one of the 1st band by the hong kong government. since the national security law took effect. this year, isaac chang, and other hong kong owners who left the city re published in britain. they published new episodes and even an english version. they've sold thousands of copies, will see the you had gone in the books mean a lot to hong congress because of its history and repercussions, as we want to keep the stories of live until hong kong or is at home or abroad, that we haven't been defeated yes, all the top i say once

a week this library in london becomes a little part of hong kong. denise and some of their home congress started last year. they call it gathering leads. each saturday they filled the shelves with books past from friend to friend or bought from independent bookstores, back in hong kong. they also organized screenings, discussion salons, and more to keep hong kong culture a life. these are primarily looking for example, we're afraid that our kids won't speak our mother tongue anymore. so we have cantonese reading and singing activities. it's a soft power, so i think it's what maintains our identity, so yeah, no, no identity them. isaac's thought he was safe to re launch the sheep village books and exile out of reach of home comes national security laws that are reading in britain was abruptly cancel due to concerns at the venue and a well known american digital publishing platform to dump their books setting on specified legal reasons. isaac thinks such organizations are worried about

upsetting the chinese government. the national security laws are designed to reach beyond the chinese borders. still, he's determined to carry on telling the stories of the sheep title. resistance is still alive, passing on our history, speaking the truth by and by the hong kong government to this even only reading a book, because a way of defiance on the apple and see that boy, i don't hold the concept of having let's get some sports news now and the former women's tennis world, number one at caroline was me. i could have announced her return to competition 3 years after retiring the 32 year olds given birth to 2 children since calling it quits. now she seems to inspire the kids with her come back. the danish player returns at the us open, where she was a finalist in 292014. she was granted a wildcard entry. and virgin galactic has launched its 1st commercial flight to the edge of space. the 90 minute admission took off from new mexico and flew 80 kilometers above sea level. the theme of battalion researchers

to the point clear position. international perspective. after the wagner groups short lived revolt and russia, ukraine is trying to take advantage of the instability of its enemy. but there's growing concern,

cooking and the russian army could escalate further awhile back on to a corner. so on to the point we ask, after pretty guardians we built how street system the, the joint fascinating world charted our guides know their way around the strictly scientific trip to some pretty wacky places. curiosity is required tomorrow to the dw, the russians no longer need the baltic states. why should name? there's no gold. it's only just practice at the base and will

clock. 7 months before russia attacked ukraine, a field team, documents, daily life, the town. how are the people who are dealing with the growing tension? they change their world frame hold on. we are with you currently know when i me inside starts july 8th on dw for a short moment. it looked like latimer, pooty and his russian empire were beginning to falter, triggered not by the courage of crating and counter offensive, but by its own mercenaries. the wagner group will usually to stabilize resumes in far away countries. ukrainian argues currently trying to harness the momentum generated by this instability.
