1:03 am
and more hopeful. i also hope this recognition makes iranians protesting for change, stronger and more organized. victory is near the bahama. these husband and children haven't seen her in years, but they watched the announcement from their home in paris with pride. she took the field around. yeah. i'm very, very proud of my mom and maybe she does this, does it was, it's the all who was i think she's committed practically half her life and this price is not just for my mother. it's for the struggle with it. so women, life and freedom that just simple it. so it'd be the best to the mohammed, the supporters and the ron said they hoped the award would encourage others to follow her lead plaza. of course, that's fine. i've enjoyed this in iranian women has been on it with the price. i hope this will pay for the way for all around in women to move forward on profits in iranian women has been chosen. and i think it's time for other women in the
1:04 am
country to think about how we can capitalize on. know how much these experience digital mono. the norwegian nobel committee hall is called only running the authorities to release and argues mohammed e in time for the prize ceremony in december. as we heard their calls from the harmonies release from prison are mounting eastern e as the director of the strategic litigation project with the atlantic council. earlier we asked her if this international pressure could make a difference from a how many situation? i think it's so critical that she's received this award because she's somebody who's already under intense scrutiny. this is a name that is very familiar to the iranian regime is familiar to anybody fighting for freedom in the country. so it's not an unknown person who now might be dealing with the negative implications. she knows what she's taken on. she has been a strange from her family because of this either these consecutive sentences, she's had
1:05 am
a 13 imprisonment. 5 convictions. this is totaled over 31 years. so she's well aware of the risk, but she's always been an incredible principal human rights defender and i think it's so critical that the, as long as the public could be wrong, i understand that the world is still watching and they are still paying attention to the calls of the women like freedom listener, a german president concord or stein meyer has arrived into us after a last minute invitation from president joe by stein meyer was surprised by the invitation to come to washington, which the white house said is intended to re you from close ties between the 2 nato allies. the german president also sat down for talks with the head of the ca, about support for ukraine. the was congress recently put its commitment to europe in question after failing to improve funding for 2 years. after the meeting in the white house, stein myers said he and biting had spoken about the amount of support berlin was providing to ukraine. something which in the past germany has been criticized for
1:06 am
providing not enough of went by and not the president fight and did not make any demands on germany. rather the officers. and i'd also, like he expressed his satisfaction to them that over the past 19 months of the war, once in germany has become the 2nd largest contributor of supports on to you, crime that's, that's just, it's a there or kind them, nothing for more. let's bring him dw as washington correspondent, janelle do a lot on so to know as we were there, stein myers, and bite, and wanted to thank germany for support for ukraine. but it seems a simple message for so so hastily arranged visit yeah, maybe it could have been an email as the kids would say. but yes, the, it clearly was a scramble to get to this meeting between barton and stein buyer off the ground stein wire. actually had other plans he was supposed to be in portugal for a meeting between e. u heads of state,
1:07 am
but he quickly changed them to be able to be at the white house. now the reason given for this meeting is ostensibly that october 6th is german american friendship day. so a day that come number rates when germans landed in philadelphia in 1683. but of course, this is endav comes every year and doesn't really explain the suddenness, but suffice to say she find meyer was here and he met joe biden. that in itself is a rare occurrence. the last time a german leader was here was former chancellor uncle, a miracle in 2018. so clearly a visit from the german head of state or head of government isn't something that happens every day. and what it does, it's usually much less of a surprise. okay, so there may have been some historical contacts for today's visit, but us lawmakers recently refused to agree on more atrial crane. if we read between the lines, was that a motivating factor behind today's visit? as well it's,
1:08 am
i think it's fair to say that ukraine is very much top of mind for both leaders. now, after the meeting, the white house released the statement, reaffirming the 2 countries commitment to each other as allies, coordinating on global challenges, but also on support for the crane. and just as an aside spine, most stein meyer, must have been an interesting person enough for joe biden to talk to in terms of strategies to defend the rules based order. stein buyer, of course, is a member of the social democrats in germany. any belong to that wing of the party that traditionally favored close ties with russia, believing that close ties with russia, void the term russian aggression and promote peace. well, so much for that, we are where we are today. but in both countries, there is growing concern that preparedness to help you crane for however long and however challenging is starting to when you mentioned that the latest bill to fund the government in the us for the next few weeks,
1:09 am
leaves out you current aid in germany the discussion very much remains on whether or not to send taras and the styles, although we heard from stein wire there, that taurus and the styles were not really the object of this meeting, but if nothing else. so these 2 leaders meeting is a signal to ukraine, but they're top to supporters are supporting each other, continuing their support for ukraine and supporting each other in their support for ukraine, despite domestic complications. right, so message of support coming from both berlin and washington today that was dw wash and correspond. janelle do milan, thanks for joining us. and back here in your poland and hungary have rejected a joint statement on european union migration reform at a meeting of the blocks leaders in spain. the dispute over the policy largely overshadowed other issues at the summit, including enlargement of the you. proposed reforms of the use migration policies were agreed by majority of states,
1:10 am
but there is no guarantee that their implementation will go ahead smoothly. it's no secret that poland and hungary are unhappy with the use and use island policy. but hunger is prime minister, still raised eyebrows with this. there is no any chance to have any kind of compromise and the agreement on the migration politically, it's impossible. but generally speaking, for the next year, you know, because because legally b r a, how to say if we agree. so if you are a legally forced to accept something, what you don't like, how would you like to have it compromise and agree with this impossible. but the french president, demand with my concepts the block had made progress. it can happen that you'll have a count block, a qualified majority decision, which i think is very well thought out. and which allows us to move forward in a concrete way. so i don't see many ethical cut the use new common asylum policy aims to create more legal migration pathways to europe and to reduce
1:11 am
human trafficking and smoking country. it is us who decide who's coming to the european union, who gets asylum here. but also who has access to the labor market. under the agreement, member states which oppose hosting migrants would have to pay those that to poland and hungary or against this. so they blocked the summits joint declaration. but even if the new policy comes into force in 2 years time, it's hard to say with a member of states will comply under the current rules many don't. anyway. here's a quick look at some other stories making headlines around the world. the german media reporting that berlin will stop funding, mediterranean c, rescue charities from next year. jeremy's 2023 budget, allocated 2000000 euros to the charities of nothing so far has been planned for 2024. italy has complained that german funds charities that help rescue migrants
