the, the, you are watching, you know, the news coming to live from berlin. the united states plunged into political chaos as the house of representatives, votes, remove republican liter, kevin mccarthy. this comes after a small group of hard, right, members of his own party rebels against him. also coming up on the show tensions escalate between india and canada over the killing of a c leader in vancouver. as billy orders auto with withdraw 40 diplomats plus and you frames the desperate measures being taken by some man to dodge the draft.
9:01 am
to avoid fighting is the ongoing war. the i'm clear, richardson, thank you very much for joining us. the us house of representatives has voted to remove republican speaker, kevin mccarthy. it is the 1st time in history, the speaker has been voted out of the position. and it comes after a showdown between mccarthy and a small group of hard right conservatives from his own party. mccarthy has described his ousting as a personal and said he will not stand for re election. just days after narrowly avoiding a government shut down, a rebellion amid the republican ranks has trust congress into chaos. 8 hard line republicans joined with democrats and voting out speaker of the house. kevin mccarthy ending a rocky tenure for the republican lawmaker of the office of speaker of the
9:02 am
house of the united states. house of representatives is here by declared vacant right winger, mat gates a controversial fire brand from florida. lead charge to i was to mccarthy. he said the former speaker didn't do enough to curb government spending and made too many concessions to democrats. kevin mccarthy is a feature of this walk. he has risen to power by collecting special interest money and redistributing that money in exchange for favors. we are breaking the fever now and we shouldn't like to speak of his battery. during the vote, several look mccarthy's supporters warned that a vote against him was irresponsible. the house. kevin mccarthy think long and hard before you plunges into chaos, because that's where we're headed. if we vacate speaker shift in an address after his removal, mccarthy said he thought the vote was the product of
9:03 am
a flawed political system. in today's world, if you're sitting in congress and you took a gamble to make sure government was still open. and 8 people can throw you out of speaker and the democrats who said they wanted to keep government open. i think you've got a real divide. i think you've got a real institutional problem. mccarthy also said he will not seek reelection. congress is at a standstill until a successor is elected. another government shut down deadline is moving next month . so what does this remarkable showdown mean for us politics? i put that to dw is william blue croft to effect somebody. i guess it's a shut down through the back door given how i'm president of the situation is we just heard earlier. this is never really happened before in the house of representatives. so people are scrambling to their rule books and to the procedural experts to see what happens now. but basically, um,
9:04 am
no work can get done and no legislative work can get done without a speaker of the house, a leader of the house of representatives. there is a temporary still in speaker of the house, but that person is really only empowered to basically see to the next speaker of the house, the real speaker of the house to be voted in. and there's no, no, there's no knowing of when that next speaker might be who it might be, a republicans or in disarray. and democrats have a theoretical chance of having someone of their party lead, lead congress. but practically speaking, not since they don't have the majority. so as you said, shut down is on the table. ukraine funding is on the table and just the general, you know, data the business of government, of passing laws can really happen until there is a new speaker of the house. completely unclear when that might happen. and all of this, the result of the fact that 8 hard right conservatives within the republican party wanting to get rid of mccarthy. you know, democrats could have stepped into save them, but instead, we've seen him ousted with a 22162210 votes. can you help us make sense of exactly what is going on there?
9:05 am
as yeah, it's pretty bonkers politics. what we've been seeing a few of these last several days, even by us standards that have just been getting more and more bunkers over the last couple of years. i mean, let's back up a couple of days where we had a narrowly averted government shut down. that only happened because a kevin mccarthy after trying to make some kind of deal with his really hard line republicans to pass some kind of budget or continuing resolution to fund the government. couldn't get it done. when to the democrats got democratic supports to avoid this shut down and, and got blamed for highlighting himself with the democrats. i know a few days later you have people like matt gates and other really hard line republicans who were accusing mccarthy of selling out the republicans. the democrats getting democratic support to our mccarthy. so there's a lot of shenanigans going on here. democrats and thought about maybe sitting this went out, but they ultimately decided. mccarthy has not called out donald trump and all the
9:06 am
efforts that trump in his allies have done to do to, to seed you know, misinformation and to at the instability with the election in 2020. she has not been on their side at all and he tried to throw the democrats under the bus for blaming them for the shut down. so the democrats have no love lost for mccarthy, and we're happy also for their own reasons, to see them go to see him go. so they've decided to let the republicans get their own house in order. um, how are republicans then when they deal with the fact that they're essentially being held to ransom by a friends group of hard? right, conservatives are right. well, if we're talking of ransom, then we're talking about hostages, but then i think we need to be talking about stockholm syndrome. because let's clarify the misnomer that there's somehow just sort of, you know, agreeable republican party. and then these little bit of crazies on the side, i mean, the republican party has moved so far to the right member kevin mccarthy, himself a voted to help or tried to overturn the election results in 2021 of many, many republicans who either actively tried to overturn those results or has not
9:07 am
publicly repudiated donald trump and his allies who believed a lie that the 2020 election was stolen. so it's not like you have not. gates is friends on the very far right. you kind of have the that the right hand, the very, very far right. so republicans themselves are in disarray. essentially sleeping in a bed that they made by, by, you know, coddling and not calling out the really, really hard line. members of they are part of who absolutely do not want to work with democrats under any circumstances, want know by parts and ship at any time, and some of them don't even believe that joe price. joe, joe biden is the legitimate president of the united states, and of course he is. um, so this is kind of a chaos of the republicans own making. and then on top of that, all the bi partisan discord between republicans and democrats. it's going to be a very hard road going forward. william, thank you so much for that analysis. that is d w william croft and we can bring you
9:08 am
up to speed. now, what's another world? news headlines at this hour and iranian teen is in a coma after being assaulted by the morality police entire on subway. that's according to a courteous rights group. it says our mutual gar, one was attacked for violating the islamic republics, had job rules. iranian authorities deny the claims. a similar incident last year sparked mass protests and iran, as india is, army says $23.00 soldiers are missing. after flash flooding, hit a mountainous region in the northeast. search operations are under way and keeps the state but are being hampered by rain and thunderstorms. experts, a climate change has made the monsoon season longer and more intense. well, india is demanding the withdrawal of canadian diplomats, according to an official familiar with the matter that way as threatening to revoke diplomatic immunity for any canadian staffers who failed to leave the country by october 10th ties between the 2 nations have fallen apart over the murder of 6,
9:09 am
separatists leader. hi jeep, sing the jar, a canadian citizen, the indian government called a terrorist. earlier this month, canada's prime minister justin for no anger, deli bike, publicly accusing indian government agents for the killing is all was shot dead by master gunman outside a sick temple near vancouver in shim inputs, job. the indian state bordering boxed on 6 are the majority. they're worried about the effect that all this will have on them eat up, is i do a task more or anger on the streets of. i'm rid, sir, in north western india, these activists of protesting the king all 6 separate this leader of the signature . they see the indian government part of the murder in canada and raised prime minister to exposing the alleged enrollment. they denied such claims for the active list insist the sick leader and was assassinated.
9:10 am
the organizer of the protest belongs to a group pushing for a separate sick homeland, also known as college stone. he sees the beginning of the 2nd leader in canada, really have repercussions of the thing that gives us as soon as this is no use estimation of how deep signature alone, one quarter century he's assassination. the indian state is in stealing caea into the minds of the younger generation that supports the close of kyla stands, and that is a separate that's explained like got the heck of pop in modern and unable to get away from the demonstration in the city sent a few up here to share the sentiment. the majority do not support the idea of a separate 60 or college son who cause nobody demands callous. then people just want good jobs, a better life and
9:11 am
a good system. people are happy yet. but pensions for the killings are being felt composite ideas of how much sir. many young people are hoping to go to canada to book the comforter, courting centers like this one to improve the english. but the friction between india and canada has left some anxious about the future. okay, get on a lot of uses. if canada stops giving visas to indian students will have to start from scratch. i mean, we've made investments and also type fees for education. so much as being invested, everything will be ruined and we'll have to start all over again. because if you're looking for the data and did an audit jenny and just as bookseller informant called us on support on costing explains. he feels the growing get tension in india and wants to separate them, could be used to discriminate against the group. he sees people are not interested
9:12 am
in independence, but to help other concerns. the situation and for job at the moment is very critical to people for job, for the programs like unemployment and many other issues. so i think that call us on woman has no relevance at this point to find what concerns. i mean that the renewed attention on call this done would make 6 talk, gets politicians intent on stalking wides political games. and for more on the story, i'm very pleased to welcome advice on these, the director of the institute for conflict management. joining us today from delhi, thank you so much for taking the time to speak with us. we heard there in that report that 6 in india are worried that the government's focus on separatism could be used to discriminate against them. do you share that fear or i don't think so, not as a group of the government or other let's say the party is also interested
9:13 am
in when the law i just received the majority of that, which is not particularly interested in the kind of spend movement. so you see this, you know, natalie thought of the team of extreme standards or supposedly extreme instead of others, but also a constant effort towards the community by a whole lot of. but i would just suggest symbolic actions though. uh, what was mentioned that there are large number of other properties of the state if you cannot make issues, unemployment issues and it could add in crisis environmental crisis. these are not being addressed in substantial measure. but the effect of all the, the logic community is certainly there and see it is. and yet after this murder, the call us on movement is now back in the spotlight after being crushed in india in the ninety's. do you think that the indian governments concerns about this kind of separatism are overblown. this luckily overall because there is no
9:14 am
comparison between what was the the, the kind of the scale of get arisen we had in the eighty's and ninety's with thousands, with being killed every yeah, i ever, at the moment you say this murder has brought the movement back into up of the focus that is not really the case. the movement has been through the article in focus. we've had fatalities almost every year for the past since 2016 or works at least one or 2 fatalities every year for already this year. there is a can continuous uh, you know, an influx of arms and munitions from across the border from blackest on lodge we know with the use of drones. so the whole point is a, to a, already out of mind. i have, it hasn't received a significant collection on the ground in terms of the population. one of the important issues that is to be emphasized yet is that we now have what evidence does have been cutting in the recent past. they have not been executed by you logically motivated a daughters,
9:15 am
but rather by gangsters. and many of these gangsters i'm not even 6. so that is the status of the movement that is continuous attention to the moment. even today, i have of the, the degree to which it is projected by the state or by the government fairly party isn't actually is exaggerated because this seems to create a sense. there's also a national security twit, essentially, to mobilize that their support elect, doroty. yeah, i get, it has become extremely high profile in the sense that it is souring ties between india and canada. you've had to go publicly accusing the indian government of involvement in this killing. can you tell us more broadly about where you think this leaves relations between canada and india as well? i think the nations are certainly going to continue the lesson for some time. uh, because the both sides, it's become fairly intractable in the positions that they are in a toodle,
9:16 am
i am afraid, isn't stocked in a position to really attract from his allegations for the simple reason that he is a minority government dependent on the new democratic party which is led by just meeting with of hourly close to the studies. so, and the indian side is certainly not going to hold back unless very, very strong evidence is provided for these allegations. so in the foreseeable future, certainly as long as both these governments are needed and thought, we must hold to understand that a significant chevy say a fiction. but at a bus that level between the 2 leaders. a pragmatist i'm owed the in 5 minutes to to so that does not seem despite a few. uh i think the box made by trudel that after which seek to shelby say cool, then the temperatures and this is not a building to go in that direction which is going to be positive in before see of
9:17 am
a future. well, thank you so much for taking the time to speak with us. i is eyes on you from the institute for conflict management in delhi. we appreciate your time. thank i like to bring you up to speed now with some other world news headlines, at least at 21. people have been killed in a bus crash here. the tale and city of venice local media is of the vehicle veered off and overpass and fell to the ground, close to railway tracks and a suburb outside of venice. according to the authorities, the boss was carrying tourists staying at a camp sites. authority say at least 4 people were wounded in the shooting at a university in baltimore. the campus was play central lockdown while police search for the perpetrator. no arrests have been announced. the shooting happened during celebrations for homecoming. a tradition to welcome back alumni. and portugal is to scrap tax breaks for 4 and residents from next year as the country raffles with a shortage of affordable housing for triple launched,
9:18 am
a special low tax scheme to bring in investors and professionals in 2009 following the financial crisis. but it has helped stokes soaring rent and house prices in one of western europe. forrest countries since the beginning of the russian full scale invasion, hundreds of thousands of men have volunteer to defend their country against the russians. but now one and a half years later, ukraine needs to fill the ranks for prescription. some ukrainians are refusing to fight and looking for ways to leave dw max send or file this report from the southern border with romania. romania is just across the border from here, but most ukrainian men cannot cross over. at least not legally. martial law requires men of fighting age to stay in the country for which documents are one way of leaving. sick forest and mountain passes are another. more than 15000 have been
9:19 am
detained in ukraine. well, trying to illegally cross into romania these border guards are trying to stop them tonight. what do you need? and i still are in charge of securing a 12 kilometers strict to enforce the law and save lives. the land level, it is a mazda area, you can get lost here. that's the reason that, that, that wild animals best in these and run into a band. the forest with less than 2 dozen bodies have been found in ukraine. southern border region since the beginning of russia's full scale invasion, we are told that the route used to be popular amongst cigarette smokers. but now it's mostly used by people trying to lease loans. dodges richard cheese was marked as a phrase because of martial law for that this, they are afraid that we live, obtain them and immediately book them for find them and take them to the recruitment center with the for the if you think is a but i mean come on where they will be processed and potentially sent to fight
9:20 am
the training soldiers. this billboard, in the nearby city of tennessee says, you can do more than you think in the beginning of the war, hundreds of thousands joined the armed forces as volunteers, one and a half years later, many of them are exhausted and wounded or dead. most of recruits are drafted the despite overwhelming public support for the ukrainian military. not everyone is willing to become part of it. men between $18.60 can be called up for military service. but there are a number of exemptions such as for fathers, have at least 3 children, essential workers and those taken care of a sick parents. and then there are medical exemptions, and this is how most people start to draft or thousands of men are believe to have left the country through bribing. the officials, criminal groups advertised their services on telegram confirming a disability for example, can cost up to $3500.00 us dollars. this is only possible with the help of official
9:21 am
assistance in august, the heads of all regional military recruitment centers were dismissed. as part of a larger move against corruption and the defense sector, she was cut up as a symbol, but we cannot say that it was total corruption. so in our table that these are the isolated chases with. first off, we see that we have 0 tolerance is for cases of corruption, the other line nation. a few for lucy, of course, there is a human fact, the nice thing we try to respond to any problems. what the novel do, you can provide me with some ukranian men do question why they should serve and are determined to find ways to avoid being drafted, such as maxine the 22 year old to, to our, to says he supports the military. but he himself won't fight. i caught us at the surface. i think having our own country is much more valuable than being a refugee somewhere. to not set up the price, there are us to pay for. it is a do it to a desk. i don't know this higher than the value of having
9:22 am
a country in the house, and i would rather be a refugee than di will say, and there's no guarantee that the country would exist. often my desk limited to the hosp difficult bishop with us at the dentist. he tells us he will leave if necessary. i want to know how he feels about silly ukrainians who can't such as those living under russian occupation lock. so the door. yep. and i can go to war only for one reason. these guys are only for my friends and relatives of the last 3 months. i don't know people, for example, from behind my or if they don't know me. and i've never seen me before. basically they don't exist for me. yeah. then you put in for okay. and i don't exist to them . but this is a very strange idea to 5 people. i've never even met back at the border loading the seal. haven't found any traces of illegal crossings yet. in august alone, though the forward has prevented 247 crossings along the border. and then lastly,
9:23 am
everyone has their own opinion as i felt myself and i, i know how it was there was an, i don't wish for anyone to be there because it is not easy. but everyone has their own destiny and everyone next their own decisions. so he cannot judge them, he tells us that like the hundreds of thousands of ukrainians who are fighting the russians, they to have a duty and are committed to fulfill it. let's get comment on this from our correspondent nick connelly. and joining me from the chief, i think we saw on that report there border guards trying to stop ukrainian men from crossing illegally into romania. if those border guards had caught some one, what would the consequences be as well as some people are sent to jail? we have a justin, this is of 2 or 3 is pretty regularly, many are just sent directly to the draft office to be sent to fight. but that also raises kind of mixed responses from the people in the front lines of the one hand.
9:24 am
they have been fighting often since being the will and don't see why other people shouldn't. but equally some people say it is a privilege to defend one's country and they don't want people that they want to rely and have their lives depending on people doing their job. if they don't want to be there, so it's a very difficult and very emotional subject, but certainly it is a pretty dangerous journey that we saw that report lines across the board of adults . people have lost their lives trying to do so. and just give us a sense of perspective here. do we know what, how wide spread this really is their own kind of good figures from the printing government? i think there's very little in it for them to make this more transparent. we get a sense that this is a question of maybe tens of thousands of people in the country over about 40000000 . so it's not so usually significant in terms of statistics. and obviously there are people who are inside the country who haven't tried to leave, who have just claimed some kind of medical disability falsely who are trying to lie low in country. i think it's more important terms, the morale, what it does to the sense of fairness. people often when you speak to me on the
9:25 am
front lines, people in the fifty's and sixty's saying that when they do come back to cube for a quick call today they see all these men in the twenty's with a gym bags out enjoying life. why should i be risking my life every day if they're not doing that bit part of this is about the kind of organization these very difficult to train people to fight. and it is easy to lead people in place and to train new people. but it's certainly something that gets emotions raised. you see that social media hearing crying, and it is a real kind of hope, but the issue for lots of people. yeah. as you say, it's a difficult subject to, of course, in the beginning of the war, you had your credit in men lining up to volunteer. do you in any way? see, this is assign babs to premiums are tiring of the war. thinks that and people outside i think people will tell you that they what they see carried on a wave of adrenalin, the 1st hall funeral. so now they're really noticing the impact is having on their health, and they're having to kind of really make sure what's kind of conserve the energy because they know this can go on for years. i don't see this yet as kind of translating into people being willing to cut some kind of deal with russia and allow russia to kind of hold onto what it has kind of beaten out of ukraine.
9:26 am
there's no cool for peace, but certainly people all worried about the results isn't about for support. um, but i don't see it kind of being kind of socially acceptable. say you don't want to fight through a country that kind of wish we had there. and the quote is still very much the minority of people who have those opinions are from very careful about expressing. and this is still a kind of extraordinary kind of consensus in this country this, this is the thing that the country has to do. this is what it needs to get through . and so now this voice is still pretty isolated. absolutely. thank you so much. that is an economy for us in keith. and just before we let you go, a reminder of our top stories at this hour as the last house of representatives has voted to remove republican speaker, kevin mccarthy. this falling on motion by hard right. faction of sound party. mccarthy says he will not seek re election as how speaker and they have it. that is your needs are our coming up after
