a scheme to sell several 100. these us, the polish opposition says the real finger can be around $250000.00. ladies and gentlemen, it is reading could unity that we looked at further information coming to lights in connection with these, this guys lives the law. and just as governments, police fees is documents authorizing entry into our country. for souls and countries in asia and africa, all goes uh, calls, guys are freelance journalist and she joins us now from warsaw. la garza, this is, is she were scandal. what exactly is going on as well, just for me to clarify uh, my location right now is not poor. so, but tonight, a sewing machine table and i'm just standing and behind me on the, on one of the main roads here and behind me the road sign with this thing,

the name of the more the most significant border crossing here, the one of could i. e a and that's less than 4 and all this nice. well, i did fourish german border. it has become a house issue for both brandon and more so because of the indigo integration of the c, as in both of the politicians in both countries has for a very long time already been predicting that this awesome starting a september answering november would be the most challenging in terms of talking to illegal immigration and that's also our mutual says, of intern, or minister of the suck, some non injunction reasons. he wasn't for the same and that's the border control of the drum on the for his border. i should be reinstalled as soon as possible. is forrest forrest forrest. every sport participating you can do that later. but i do

want to get to the, the scandal rocking poland right now about these as potentially being sold to on that it's migraines. what can you tell me about that? what are the details? how does this come to lights? well that's all this the next to the indigo regression, all case. you look at that your location scheme, and obviously the wars are trying to select on the line for them to your location. now with the berlin come in for the life against the indigo immigration, that's the chance for the uh, for the government to come to move forward with the agenda as well. so, um, what would it be done because found out i, you said being laid down by moving and this one in particular because that was, uh, uh i said the most descending of this call ition right now. um,

in the post and the you has given warsaw to is to provide clarification of the matter. are they likely to get it well for now, what we know is that the german, the german ambassador demands classification must be on these words. this will mc um, uh, requests from the foreigners government does not really into the license and nothing has been uh, uh, handled right now. uh bye bye were so i'm and the most interesting in this and is, this is what's been going on right now, is that the sobering, far see the so we're in far to solving full on this trying to play down, bringing about past issues. the past condos, a and corruption santos,

by the position party. yeah. the opposition and so, you know, understandably all over this and they called out and the government's double standard. here. are voters likely to care because poland is going to the polls in less than a months time as well. it doesn't look like it's been affected, it's off. it's a, it has affected the popularity of the on their own incarnation, the nationalist who incarnation is still the king in the falls. last for a close this again by the, by, this was not for stuff. that's the website and just for free. so they, that's one of the main, they being phone on the sides of 72.7 percent of the social supports in the country. another fall as they quoted by the say, 7 years. cvt mentions the number of 39 percent and it

doesn't look like it's going to be a place to the disadvantage of the ruling. 5 feet of the um the well the use sounds on the uh, on the issue has to be quite vague and rather delicate. um i know you said that before we do y'all has been uh, only demanding a courtesy station. uh on that. um, that's been sold before, but we from in the, uh, in the same of course. yeah. and it's very likely to we can pull in stance on the european stage, at least when it comes to migration in the foreseeable future. that was a logo in our curriculum. sca freelance during less thank you so much. thank you to . meanwhile politicians and police representatives here in germany or demanding

border controls be reinstated as numbers of undocumented wagons entering from poland appear to be soaring. authorities say they've accountant some $15000.00 illegal border crossings in the 1st half of the year. and now reporter matthew moore has more fits the crack of dawn on the german totally florida on police on patrol. he real clearly had time to recall before the 1st call on 8 men, all from syria dropped off with nothing more than the clothes the weird ring. at the moment, this is a daily occurrence and self brandon book. we have to deal with smuggle people every day. the man is taken to the police station to begin the long process of applying for asylum back on the road. and before long a report has come in, trespasses have been spotted on a train track in the middle of nowhere. really,

we workers tried to help. eventually, the group is fund fee of bottom of the forest by a smuggler who flagged. but we can't hang around because we're cold to respond to reports of a suspicious man. the cargo is all too familiar, but nevertheless shocking search of people, including 2 children, pilot. most of them syria would have made the journey via the balkans. but i'll finish north tennessee job for police to work out who is trafficked on who is traffic off on top of this would be at the drive as an 18 year old syrian who is in the asylum process in germany after a short escape where he fled on foot, he was arrested for one instead, you only have to look at the inside of this binds, get a sense of how dire the journey was was panada skins empty ball. so it was not strewn

across the floor. that's fairly space for sort of people to stand level $96.00. it's on hygienic, it's uncomfortable, and above all it's on the safe assault. as you see, the number of undocumented migrant crossing gemini, eastern border has risen exponentially in recent months. regional ministers to be kind of cool as our systems are working in overload mode and the high influx, which is now well over 300, probably 400000 still to come this year. it's causing our local municipal systems to collapse. statements will collapse t once fixed border controls, the likes of which have been imposed on the southern german border since 2015. the government in bel let and however, is not in favor. the side of the number of illegal arrivals is rising because we don't effectively protect us alta bought up and if we don't do that,

then it will make no difference if we put up stationary border controls everywhere we will be addressing a problem, but not the causes that's why it's not the right approach. until you find a coordinated approach to border control, human traffic coast will continue to exploit things in the system. and asylum seekers will find the promise of a new life. hard to resist the, the as ukraine bottles to defend its territory against russia's invasion with heavy weaponry. an alarming number of civilians calling on the wrong side of the finding are subject to a horrendous, but effective weapon law scouts arsenal. sexual violence is crimes targeting women, 1st and foremost, but people of all genders and ages have become victims. i know reports, conflict related, sexual violence in ukraine, points out ways the international community and the government of ukraine can help

victims find justice. and also drawing on the experience of the war in bosnia and herzegovina. 3 decades ago, the report says, since the start of the conflict between russia and ukraine in 2014, there have been countless reports of c r. s. v. committed by the russian forces against ukrainian civilians of all ages and genders at a conflict related sexual violence. of course, according to a report by the independent international commission of inquiry crane published in october of 2020 to conflict related sexual violence carried out by russia and ukraine is being used as a tactic and a weapon of war. the report details extensive sexual violence against men, women, children, and the elderly. as bringing emily praise, she's the director of the general policy portfolio at the near lines institute. and

one of the authors of this report was pretty welcome to the day and rape and sexual violence are often called the cheapest weapon of war. do we have any indication as to how widespread this kind of abuse is in the war in ukraine to yes, we do. so this report that i wrote with professor tenure domain, doctor kinsey spears we worked with the office of the prosecutor general and ukraine. and so far as their team that works on complicated social violence, they've documented $231.00 cases of sierra see this as of this month, september. but if we're looking at the whole of the war, you know, we, we know this conflict started in 2014 russian affiliated forces have been using sexual violence as a method of war as a method of genocide. and so the, the continued use of sexual violence since 2022 shouldn't cause i'm surprised that anyone has been paying attention. so there is

a sense that this is being used systematically as a means of psychological warfare. yes, the office of the prosecutor general has evidence that it's being used systematically in the new lines institute where i work also has produced several reports on an assignment to genocide in ukraine and on the ongoing to assign a new crane which has evidence that it is in use in a systematic way. now the survivors of sexual violence are often not only traumatized but also full of shame. what can be done to give victims of sexual violence in the context of this, this very, very difficult scenario. arranging for any crane adequate attention. so the global survivors, i'm actually did a really incredible study. they did a global reparation study for survivors of complex related sexual violence. and we cited this extensively and i report and they found that interim reparative measures

are very important to survivors of sexual violence and conflict. and that can be anything from free legal aid to psycho social support to child care support, to even just basic you know, the government, acknowledging that these crimes happened and that, that, that they were real and that the survivors have special victim status. there is a lot, a lot of emphasis put on courts and international legal justice mechanisms. these of these are important that they have a place for sure that they can be costly, they can be link the process is an unfair to turn effect on future atrocities. so in the meantime, these types of interpretive measures will be incredibly important and supporting survivors of sexual violence. and once the weapons fall silent, which we all hope is as soon as how important is it for victims of sexual violence to get a se impossible peace negotiations that that is incredibly important

and not just survivors of catholic religious actual reynolds, but also women. so there's a whole agenda, the word peace and security agenda address. it's a global agenda that addresses the inequitable experiences of women pre during and post conflict. and research has shown that when women are involved in peace negotiations and peace talks, the piece is actually longer lasting. more durable and more sustainable. and yet, you know, when you look at complex, i see again and again women are not included when we look at kind of look a sedan or we're look at the deal. yeah. and so that's one of the reasons why you know, this report is titled lessons from bosnia. it because we want ukraine to look to the past past complex to learn the lessons. in bosnia, they didn't include women in any way in the p stocks in the dayton peace agreement . they didn't include survivors of sexual violence in any way. and now we see

conflicts bring once again in the balkans and so for ukraine it will be incredibly important when hopefully peace talks happen hopefully soon when you cravens this for the women and survivors of conflict, really those actual violence will have a meaningful seat at the table, one example that you pointed out in your report as a positive, less than that can be drawn from bosnia, was actually the treatment of children born out of 4 time rape. how can they be protected to so in boston, estimated 20024000 children were born of wartime rate, and they spent, you know, their whole lives fighting, correct ignition. they faced, a lot of socialist, stigmatization, and shame because of their status of invisible children. and so, and birds go district and bosnia in 20 uh, last year and 2022. they recognized children for a long time, right. as victims of the war. and this is incredibly important because as the

population that people don't really think about. and so when we look at ukraine, when we look at how rate this being used by russian forces, there will be children born of we're time rate. and it's incumbent upon ukraine to start thinking about that now and putting in place protections for those children. now. as and we pray of the new lines institute. thank you for your time and for your very, very important research. thank you for having the canada as prime minister justin turned out as repeated claims that indian government agents were involved in the killing of a canadian citizen in canada. in june. the victim was 6 that protest her deep sing and jar threw though far as may have the claims on mondays, sparking an escalating diplomatic rift with deli. on thursday, india announced it was suspending the issuing of reasons for canadians and called on canada to reduce its diplomatic staff in the indian capital for those currently,

at the one it was asked of canada was considering a tit for tat response. and here is what he upset we call upon the government of india to take seriously this matter and to work with us to shed full transparency and ensure accountability and justice in this matter. as we are country or the rule of law, we are going to continue to do the work necessary to keep canadian safe and to uphold our values and the international rules based order. that's our focus right now. let's take a little deeper with stephanie carman. she's a national security expert and carlton university in canada. she joins us tonight from rome. good to see you. those are extremely serious allegations has to provide of any details or evidence to back up his claims. no,

he hasn't. and this has been a form of criticism that we've heard from the indian government as well as, you know, grace officials in india. and finally, even domestically we have seen the opposition party basically say, you know, this is pretty serious. government should come forward with more information. this will be hard, of course, because there still is an ongoing criminal investigation into this particular incident. and as a result, i don't think the government will be willing to release that much more information unless there's more pressure from allies or perhaps even within canada. the opposition. you mentioned that there they have reacted rather cautious way. there is talk about the risk of being on the wrong side. they not believe the claims are true. and so that's an interesting question. um we do know that the opposition, the conservative party is,

has closer ties with india in the india diaspora. canada's former prime minister stephen harper is the head of the international democratic union in the high supposed ties to moody. and as a result, um, even though we didn't see a, you know, a fairly strong statement of solidarity from the conservatives when this was 1st announced on monday it's, it's been walk back a little bit. and a conservative type, simply decided to call for more information to be released and her focus on issues relating to the other important matters, such as the cost of living and interest rates. so i think you're trying to, to back away from this. and i, i, as a result of that you, they want to be see it as, as of course, you know, they've been speaking out about chinese born interference in canada for a number of months now. and for them to kind of back away when there's a very serious allegations about india and for an interference,

would be perhaps slightly hypocritical and kind of as the largest state community outside of india. and how is all of this and the diplomatic fall out. of course being received by that so there has been a lot of support from the community in canada. they have been saying for years that they have been subjected to for an interference by india. nothing so serious as murder, but definitely of the monitoring surveillance harassment look in here. it has very confident intelligence agencies and views canada as a national security threat and they act accordingly. right. um, so we do know that there have been this harassment against the community. um by the, the indian government, but um, uh so, so i'm not surprised. i said that that they're very high f b with it. but there's also a large non seat indian population in canada as well, who are probably now very concerned about the,

the escalation and the fact that they may not be able to go visit their loved ones . because they may not be able to get to be that. yeah. in canada as allies are in a quite uncomfortable position here, historically close to canada, but pretty much all of them right now. busy courting india is anyone back in canada up here, especially among the 5 ice countries to so that's a great question. um i think the key thing is here is that no one is disputing the canada's version of events. right. and we do know that the 5 by shares intelligence and i would imagine that the community and government has she there what it knows with um, with its allies, particularly as 5 eyes partners. and we also know that i cannot, is also shared this information with france. and so i think that they wanted to, to kind of preempt any kind of shocking of facts by letting our allies know what's

happening here. but the response isn't extremely muted. i think this is concerning for a lot of canadians, but it's simply comes down to kind of just basic international relations. our old candidate allies have been waiting india for some time as a camera balance to china, particularly in this those specifics, you know, area. and as a result, they don't want to really upsets the possibility of as an alliance. and in some cases, particularly that of u. k. a trade agreement, right. and so a lot of the statements have been very short, small and not particularly that supportive. and we'll have to leave it there is definitely carmen. thank you so much for your input. thanks for having me on. and that's our times. thank you so much for choosing the w tonight. the

to the point of the strong opinion, clear positions, international perspectives being welcome danger as to news in search of a better future. and they end up in crowded refugee comments instead on to the point of asking golden migration prices, well, solutions to politicians top to the point next on d. w. answer of the conflicts own with sarah kelly. drones

far away from the front lines and ukraine, increasingly striking crimea, and even moscow is the russian position, becoming more vulnerable. our russian is getting tired. andre field off is former deputy foreign minister of russia. he's my guest this week on complex own. joining us from moscow is putting out of option conflict in 16 minutes on w, the one is main kinds, oldest ambitions could be within reach or what do you see? it really is possible to reverse the researchers and scientists all over the world for

a no race against time. they are peers and rivals with one daring goals to help smart nature. the more likes watching it. on youtube dw documentary, the, the desperate they have little choice, this gaping from wall persecution on even the effects of climate change. and so, so for better life, they are taking up things that are still in use. the hope is to find a more promising future. however, this hope often leads to crowded refugee comes as we've recently seen, a non producer of their increasing number of refugees and bill harsh and in human conditions. a similar situation on.
