4:03 pm
a situation when vladimir putin is not able to visit armenia. and so, um, so here is the latest and in another quite major development today, which coincided with that fault, of course, is that we heard that the french foreign minister kathrine color not arrived in the area of onto day. and she was expected to visit some of the refugees from the garden, the car, back together with our mean and prime minister, nicole motion now. now you mentioned the rest of your days and you've met some of them in the northern armenian town of daily john. let's have a look at the report you filed for us, the ocean, they left everything behind. now they're looking for a new opportunity to start a new life. some of the nearly 3000 refugees who arrived in the area was sent to these former boarding school. as we failed to man, appear each carrying nothing but a small bag. they just came from the garden, the car, some of the people stay in here say that even before the right time to take over.
4:04 pm
they had little choice but to try and leave go. we were starving for several months . all i had to eat where vegetables from my small garden, potatoes, pumpkins, things like that. this man tells us he has cancer and he's waiting to resume his treatment. for now, he has to stay in this reception center which has very basic conditions and problems with heating and water supplies. busy there is a sense of abandonment and hopelessness in this place which is being held together by efforts of local volunteers. they are telling us that they prefer not to send families, especially with small children here because staying here, even for a short time, would be very traumatizing for them. volunteers bring food, clothes and other basic necessities that they collected in the town. they say they try to approach their refugees very carefully, as many of them are still in deep shock. most of we need to make sure they have something to eat somewhere to sleep so that they can get back into some kind of
4:05 pm
normal. so we can come up with the fun you really, especially to atlanta and her colleagues. take us around, deal with john to meet out of the refugees, 11 members of the switch it around family might have been placed in this private house, at least for the next month. they are planning to buy a new property. they switch it around so left behind the farm with many animals and equipment. they say the disaster could have been diverted. russia to the gunners. now, generally speaking, they didn't do what they should have done. what should have they done? learning well, they're doing what they should have thought about. ordinary people know be it, but many in the lead only cared about their own business. what else is there to say? in another part of town, the house of young family has filed a temporary shelter, but a, you'd was an officer with the separate his forces in the garden, the car above his 5 sisters paying for their stay in this apartment. the company is
4:06 pm
looking forward to finding jobs and staying in armenia, despite all the shock and sorrow by to use drugs and optimistic to me. i'm not, i can't tell the future. we don't know what kind of politic go into your graphical changes will happen in the world and our region, us. but we should have hope, the one day we can return the last time 3. this sentiment is unlikely to be shared by many of those who escaped the war in the garner, cairo by most of the refugees believed that their past lives now gone forever and demetrius still on the line. uh that for us is your, what's your impression you meant these people about that long time, but prospective of all that hopeful as well. i have to say that probably at this stage these, the last thing they actually thinking about. so everyone who's involved in,
4:07 pm
in this, in this development, this crisis references themselves and volunteers, they all say that now the most important thing is to supply them with basic necessities, like clothing, food, they need to find places for them to stay. they need to provide them with basic items of personal hygiene and this is what volunteers are doing at the moment. they say that they made some homework following the previous conflict with as they're by john in 2020, when a lot of references came as well. so they say they are now acting more effectively this time. but everyone including the government, volunteers, and local residents. everyone is over whelmed by sheer numbers of refugees in the town of dewitt john where we went yesterday. the population is around 20000 and they say that about 3000 new people arrived in the town in the surrounding area and just a few days. so they are actually an urgent need of everything. and they ask, you know, and everyone who help intern can help international communications,
4:08 pm
volunteers provide them with donations and that's what they do to help those references and meet at the moment. demetrius when you have in that era, vaughn, thank you very much. dimitri and germany is celebrating unity day and marks 33 years since the countries for many communist east modes for the federal republic of west germany. and just under a year after the but, and will came down germany's political elite, half guy. that's in handbook to celebrate. the anniversary of germany was divided off of the end of world war 2. and coldwell tensions prevented reunification which only became possible often we call gorbachev reforms in the soviet union and a peaceful uprising. lots of people in east germany months and cannot see on the 9th. so more than 30 years on how unified is the country, our report has been funded house for lean on the 3rd of october
4:09 pm
1990. the day went to jem and use the communist east and the capital is west became one again 33 years later. and it took until this july for east and west states pensions to a chief parity people in the east still less than the west and counterparts. and verify, few at east germans in positions of power. nationwide the and that is all about german unity is completed is not perfect in the minds and hearts of many east and west germany appear to be drifting a pod once again. you know, there are many of the germans, especially in smaller times like the one where i live, know i really feel for gotten they feel invisible and that their problems are know addressed enough to be much and a gun. and the reason, so they found that less than 40 percent of germans nationwide, few of the country is more united than divided striking the perception of unity is
4:10 pm
notably weak knees. germany with 75 percent feeling that division prevails. in 2019 demons had a much more optimistic outlook back then. 51 percent nationwide said the country was more united. pandemic, the consequences of russia's invasion of ukraine. rising energy costs in place. and the country has had to battle with multiple crises. a majority of eastern german say they're not very, are not at all satisfied with the way democracy in germany works. there's a sentiment that is being capitalized on by the populace fluoride alternative foot to many party. it has been gone. ring substantial support in germany's eastern states ahead of 3 important regional elections and 2020 full full costs and schneider, political measures alone will not solve the disparities. and also because that has to come from society itself, both be interested in it as well as dealing with each other. and i think that many
4:11 pm
eastern germans of to feel a bit snapped and that they being treated with condescension. there is no reason for that. while the physical process of germany is unique, occasion has long been completed. it seems the mental, the void between east and west is still proving to be of ho 10th area. benjamin nevada screwed up, who found that report. jones been on the studio and benjamin tell us more about why this feeling of unity is still of that. so the several surveys that were made, also asking east germans if they feel that this feeling the disturbance of 2nd class citizens is justified this, this feeling that they feel being treated differently to the accounts of pods of the people in the west and 50 percent service 2nd test, that was offset. yeah, that's the case. we seen changes. it was more people focusing on the divisions. so how they feel, but it's not just feeling, it's not just perception. the so numbers and we only recently in july of this year had and the both zone. so that calculation all belong to the east and the west where
4:12 pm
a line that's still differences. we will look at high level positions and companies, for example, they've more or less people from eastern germany are via the difference is when we look, the net worth is living in houses from people in the east. so people in the west, but that's something that the authorities today at the philharmonic orchestra and handbook with as a celebration were taking place. also ask for the the effort from everyone will be needed and not just from people in eastern part of german. now the support for the far right a if the which has been rising as opposed recently across the country, but is especially strong in the form of east. why do you think that is? so 1st of all, we need to be really careful here because they all stare at tom saying that everyone in eastern part of germany will vote for the safety of votes for it already. most of the people that bowed for other parties, but of course it's really strong that because it's an to migrant rhetoric works pretty well in those states. so last and really strong that. but that's the effort . and that's the big task. the other parties will have to trying to gain support is also gaining support in the west and part of the countries. we have 2 elections
4:13 pm
coming up in half and in bavaria. now in october with a also has been gaining support, but it's important to not fall into the stereotypes saying that everyone in the east and pod was boats like this. and everyone in the west end at pots, boats like that. but of course, communication is needed and that's what they use and commission to a off the german government cost side also told a d w saying that the res on paper reading invitation. but if it actually is in the minds of everyone in germany, it is not up to them that individual answers and individual experiences as well. now, how seriously do the politicians here in germany, a take this disparity between the 2 pos, uh, what are they doing to improve it? what they saying 1st is to see how this, how different it actually is, how people believe how people perceive it's saying that they have not heard enough that they are still being invisible as. but what it's important to us to see that is not always the difference between east and west, but rather the difference between the oven at rest and the rural areas. and it's
4:14 pm
something that we see in both parts in the east and german parts. and also in west germany that they have a commission or else like all them and shows that they taking it seriously. and also that people talk about that because it's not only petitions who can solve this . you can say, you know, off to so many years, this is a unified country working on discrimination that still might be in place in some parts. but of course, it's an effort, a baby, every body in this country, not only beast and pa to make this when, if occasion alive actually in the minds to. thank you very much. a benjamin of ours group with that the nobel prize in physics has been awarded in sweden, the witness off tag, a cd settings crouse. and i'm really a, the experimental work generates a split 2nd pulses of lights to study electronics which could help in medical diagnostics. they'll receive a $1000000.00 for their cheap,
4:15 pm
but still to come this week, all the noble prizes in chemistry and the literature and the peace prize on friday . and that's it from me and the news team from now i'll have an update for the top of the on the go away dw business is up next with chris. cool. but looking at how rising anti migrant sentiment in east germany to tampa tends to attract workers from abroad to a display needed and got office in berlin for me. and it seemed thanks for watching the sometimes to have that you out to the highlight for sure. every week, not the, not the fast fashion as an environmental nightmare. a clothing graveyard, an image of land desert this is where things wealthy industrial
