a p and parliament is now in full swing in $21.00 european countries and predictions are accurate right? wing parties are expected to make major gains and the selection is could shave the policies of the european union for the next 5 years and issues from migration to climate change and also foreign policy. a total of $720.00 seats are up for grabs. and final results are expected monday. here's a look at what some of the voters across europe had to say about the elections for the next year in parliament. the most it, the for me it's a duty divider because i think we'll have the freedom in half democracies to choose uh, representatives. so hopefully that's the reason i'm going to talk to me soon as we speak the team and certainly the important issues are the economy, civil liberties, the rule of law and human rights mentioned the gosh, the of of those i knew them the 0 right wing parties openly talking

about leaving that you know, you pushing it could ok then just for the, for the home and it's just the slogan. but we don't know what political decisions might be taken if that were to happen. you know the buttons to me, but i think the thing that it's very important to vote and that everybody should participate. but really i have many doubts about who to vote for in the selections . it doesn't let us love it about. so one of the 21 countries voting today and the parliament elections as colin's, as for the view from horse over and joined by our correspondent jack parent jacket to see you. so tell us, what are the main issues that are on polish motors mines in this you election and what you polls tell us? what can we expect? that's a really interesting vote here in poland because of

a couple of reasons. first of the back in october, the civic platform of the prime minister don't know, task mentors to august is of the hard right law and justice policy in poland. on this european elections is actually seen as a sort of test to sort a barometer on how well don't know task. and his government has been doing the poles in the run up to this day this election day have said that basically the injustice and the civic platforms of the center less than the hard left pretty much equal in the pose 31 percent of the vote. we expect it to the post voting for 53 of the european parliament is 25720 c's. and i don't know, task is painting the selection as you must vote for us. otherwise, you are allowing russian influence into powerless politics here. the other side ers lives, kazinsky i, who is the time of the law and justice policy. he's saying that don't know, task is a stooge of the european union,

a populace of brussels. it is really about the sort of polish opinions on those 2 policies and those 2 men, rather than perhaps necessarily the issues that are on voters minds, which we know from studies say that it is things like security. there's also a big issue with the border at the moment that's being a search and migraines crossing from batteries like we have seen the russians pushing migrants across the board over the last few years. so just have a little that minds. but as i say this divided country between these 2 sides, they will see who takes the most photos when we get those results. later on sunday and monday morning jack, thank you for that. jack parent on the ground for us in warsaw. we appreciate it as well. as jack just mentioned, one issue that you voters say is among their top concerns is migration and few places and the you feel as much pressure due to migration as the italian island of long produce them is located in the middle of the mediterranean sea,

halfway between sicily and to niga and africa, and one produces therefore a destination for many migrants heading for the you. more than a 1000 landed there in just one single day the spring. oh, here is what some people on the islands have been saying about this a you election that really does sort of stuff. i most thing that i was feeling very undecided about whether to go invited or actually i was thinking of not voting because europe is not felt here at all. but in the end, out of a sense of civic duty, i will go and vote on the data that i'm for this. as a resident of love to do is, i hope that you are a can finally recognize all the sacrifices lemme produce that has made because lump it to is, it has done so much representing your. it has given a sign of hospitality of freedom. it is given a sign of entry to your but your up has always been absent to allow me to do something that is also in love to do. the bodies of several migrants who died off

the coast of north africa have been brought ashore. ca, group doctors without borders said one of its ships had recovered the bodies of 11 migrants who were trying to reach italy from libya. the central mediterranean route, as it's called, has been called the world's most dangerous crossing. more than 3000 people died or was missing on this route. last here. to talk about the perspective of the migrants coming into the u. m. joins in the studio by a half a bond, where he is a political activist here in berlin, who has been working to get the young syrian and german people involved in the political process in germany and in europe. and have a welcome to you. thanks for, for joining us. so tell us what you have been hearing from young people with migrant backgrounds in germany, in berlin. what did they make of this is you election?

hello and thanks for having me. i think it's like from the thing i heard from the last month, it's about the conversation start. do we have to participate in this election or does an extra mean to us? because i smell like many from refugee and immigrant who come germany to 2015 and doctor and before they still see them, tell the autumn to present that in depth of the in the you'll be on pull out the and all of the conversation about which party it's present task, present the needs we look for, and so forth, of what case is asked interest. and refute you here in germany and in many conversation by coming up about people they try to vote for the part that you'd like support their needs and social level and political level and, and economic level about how we see it. and same times with supporting the immigration and refugee case in europe and was the oldest conversation that's link it to the main main issue here right now as well with that conflict between is there any for this team where this is as well? it's like the main issue, play that both which barking support thing which and now you yourself came from

syria a few years ago. what's been your experience and have you noticed a shift in how german society treats migraines? the attitude of people just in the years that you've been here. yeah, i'm, since i am here in germany where i come 10 years ago, like i always feel the integration, it's coming in different ways. sometimes it's difficult integration. it's very welcoming. sometimes it's not. and it's always about how we interact with, with the hosting community. and then in the integration of the political participation, it's not clearly clearly supported and we tried to implement like, and we tried to empower the people to participate in the political process from voting from being active citizen or like and the same time get being around doing loving about their topic. awesome. within the future. can you tell us a little bit about the work that you do? so what exactly can you do to get people who have come to germany from other countries to just become active in german or european politics?
