problem for the ass, welcome to the program. demonstrators have clashed with police in the western german city of s and where the far right alternative for germany party is holding it's summer conference. please use the pepper spray after some tried to break through a police cordon. as many as a 100000 protesters are expected to appear outside the 2 day event. authorities say they expect most to be peaceful, but that some may try to disrupt the conference at the a f d is writing a high following recent electoral successes despite a series of scandals. but observers say in fighting could see the a f d shift even further to the right of 2024 was meant to be there. the far right told, tentative for germany was writing high in the polls ahead of peasants and elections that the you and in the eastern german hop on the ready for mall. but things didn't

go to plan. in january, hundreds of thousands of people across germany took to the streets. what's happening right now with the jeremy, i came to you and came before and i've discussed in the demonstrations were sparks by reports that yes, please take goes attended a meeting at this villa out site, but then they're said to have discussed plans for the mass deportation of german citizens, party leaders called the to spit shop. but more trouble followed. a leading sticker in the party was found guilty of using nazi slogans. that's a riley. then the parties top candidates for the elections were hit with scandal. mark, somebody in cross closest aid was arrested on suspicion of spying for china. his running mate was then accused of receiving money from a russian disinformation campaign. the pay of withdrawal from the f d 's election offensive must be the i will not close over what has been

a setback this week to our important call johnny. shooting them. to make matters worse, the french fall, right? nothing less liter loading the pen broke off for alliance with the f d in the european parliament. despite that, the party was celebrating on you to p and election night. really happy and that gives us a lot of to win for the east germans all day. the laptop line, but to look at their pools show, it could have been much better, a sub in the park. do you think the leadership should have stood by their candidates? no. the conference sets the stage for rival fractions to have their c. and it could see the part is extreme wing try to a set more power. let's cross live now to that conference in s and last spring in our chief political editor at miss taylor cosigner, who is inside and dw reporter alex gr is to is i would side this or with that you

mikaela you are inside. as i just mentioned, what is the a f d hoping to get out of this conference? it's, well, it's once to 1st of all, project leadership and stability off to what has been essentially election victory at the european level, but has seen its top 2 times. it said this race puts a key. maxine, me, i caught use close a staff member was a let's just spied for it's fine now. and there was also the number 2 on the list let's of taking money from russia. so that's the key on down is the policy is trying to recover from a head of key regional elections in eastern states here in germany. and we just heard from elise vital, the co policy elite and quite clearly of the key see wants to recalibrate the

policy along the on t migration lines. she's cited on going to macro in 2015. you said, yes, we can, we can take on this challenge of almost a 1000000000 migrant surviving at least vital in a if to coding this said no, we cannot. and direct the calls for uh, hundreds of thousands of people. she says, uh legally and um, need to leave the country so on surprisingly, this is what the policy is zooming in on. a head of a leadership vote which is expected to be uncontested here. and kind of we'll come back to in a moment, but let's go outside the conference now. we're alex squarespace, standing by for us. alex, we've seen already that there have been a, let's say some clashes between police and protesters. there are that there's an expectation that it could be out to a $100000.00 people who will be there protesting. tell us what's the latest from

there and ask them a l. uh, the protested air started for identity. somewhere between 5 am and 6 am right behind me. i'm standing on one of the main roads leading to the venue. and we can see actually the strategy of products that are still going on. they are blocking the streets. they are trying to prevent a if the delegates from arriving at the venue. most of the of the delegates, though they are already inside, but some still have not reach to reach the venue of business. the date is what we're hearing. so this is at least a tiny success for all the demonstrate that's here. later today, as you said, we expected 100000 people mainly protest this peaceful protest unions of cold churches have called the fried is the future of the grandmother's against the far right. it's almost as cold through the streets, and they all one to send me a message and that is that the far right to the is not welcome. he

n s. and thanks alex. so let's go back to mckayla. now the f t was at the 2nd most voted party in germany. in the reasons you were a pain part of the elections. what is it that's appealing to voters? well, clearly the migration issue that it's centering on again, is guessing trucks. and at the ballot box we also saw a violent attack where a policeman then died of his injuries here in germany, which is really fueled that debates over rejected asylum seekers here in germany. individual cases only, but highly symbolic and really driving a political debate that is becoming more heated. that's very much so the case in the east where the a if the even became the strongest party in these european elections. and that's frankly what masses psychologically 40

a if the to win those and key elections in 3 eastern states and also in it's in a pretty good position to do that in all 3 states that are going to the polls. so here i would expect and last degree of self discipline to not have the infighting before right. a if d is also in some as full on an open stage, she physical editor and it kind of cooper and reporter alex cursed and ask them for us. thanks for that update. all right, time for a quick look now at some of the stories making headlines around the world. at least 4 people have been killed after a mini van crushed in twin nail salon in the us state of new york. and other 9 people were hospitalized after the incident, including the driver police are investigating the cause of the crash. the are the results show that's mongolia is rooting people's party has naturally won the

countries parliamentary elections. the prime minister said his party was on track for a majority, but the opposition was also set for major danes with many voters frustrated by corruption. and the high cost of living radians will return to the posts for a runoff boat next week, after no candidate scored a majority of votes in its snap presidential election. the vote took place after president abraham, right easy was killed in a helicopter crash last month. reformist my suit possess can holds a slim lead over conservative side. jenny, with more than 24000000 votes kind of to the election, was marked by a vote or turn of only 40 percent. that's the lowest in the history of the islamic republic. power in iran ultimately resides with a supreme leader at tullocks. i mean, a, who oversaw the, the selection of all 4 candidates in the race. a run expert come run my

team from. so 6 university told me more about the 2 candidates who were headed for the run of. well, mess with is a scan who has a slim lives, as you mentioned in these, around the 1st round of elections is seen as the kinds of it's closest to the or phone ms. kemp within the ring and establishment even though he's not seen by many as as a classic performance if you like. uh, although he was a minister in the hots, i mean government, but he has repeatedly announced his appearance to the supreme leave this politics that he follows his, his commands, which is not something menu for me is probably would like to hear a police in the public um the um his his arrival and said to our lease is a hotline. there is a family within the kind of conservative affection of islamic republic, e led and negotiations over here on this mix of project in the previous governments

. and he is seen as one who showed that the least flexibility in those negotiations . so at testing spend, the elections will go into the 2nd round. and i think the is not making a public disagreements in particular as hoping that's in the 2nd round. the participation rights of people in the elections will go up. this as something which is expressly described as, as is, is kind of a preference to gain some of the tennessee for this job placement, but a district dis, from that place. the participation has been around 40 percent, according to the government's polling data, which is normally the end of the kind of exaggerated state participation. right. so this is quite disappointing, i guess, for, for the supreme leader, those around expert to come are on my team from so 6 university in the u. k. are changing topics now and us president joe biden, and the democratic party are in damage control after

a port to face performance against donald trump. thursday's head to head, so bite and stumble and stammered through answers and struggled to respond to a tax and a barrage of false claims from his previous assessor. on friday, trump told supporters in virginia that the debate was a big victory against the president as powerful voices that of supported by the se . thursday's matchup wounded his re election efforts, the influential new york times editorial board called for him to drop out of the race. but the 81 year old shows no sign of or lending a rally in north carolina bite and admitted he may not be beat debate or he once was, but insisted he had the qualifications for office that his opponent lacked. i know . 2 i don't know how to do this job. i

know it's manageable. there is no. when you get not down, you get back to the sports now and here in germany. the knock i ran to the european football championships is about to get underway, saturdays 1st match the switzerland chasing their 1st victory against italy in more than 30 years. the seconds pits, denmark, against the home team, and well germany, our firm favorites. they're not taking anything for granted spirits or high a team. germany's bass players like leroy sign, a took some time to meet with fans and signed a few autographs. the head of the high pressure round of 16 clash with denmark, the relationship between the team and supporters is back on track at their home euros. after several disappointments that recent tournaments you go to them on so that people really support us. we have sparked and been a few more in germany, and we will now try to keep that going to be in the that's why that's a blog because slaughter back is a solution to one of the coach. you really are not those mines headaches,

the germany bloss use the same starting 11 and all 3 group matches. now he has to make changes defender jonathan tom will not be available. his yellow card against the switzerland was his 2nd of the tournament meeting. he will serve a one match pan slot or back is expected to replace tom. but fellow center back antonio. really good. it may also missed the game with a hamstring injury, which i'll do for that's the most i've had an injury like that in the past. it's not that easy to get it out of your head. i hope he'll be fit, but we still have to wait and see on saturday. looks like 100 dogs. denmark will not be easy to crack, just like germany. they went undefeated in the group stage. players coming off the bench such as emory con, or nicholas pool crew could be key. both have gotten their names on the score sheet as substitutes as government. and i think if we have a good game that will make the fans happy and that can purchase for, we're going to play the championship. final is still a long way away, but the momentum is building as more and more fans start to believe in germany.

when once again endorsement, the dream of lifting the trophy on home soil will be more alive than ever. right. you're up to date after the break. it's sports sliced i chain for that for me, the team here and brand. thanks roger. take care. the ukraine was like a stepping points if you know time what you into that warranty wants to finish your studies. now you have a safety for me to train. you can choose to go back to somewhere else. currently, more people than ever on the world wide in such a professional life, at least something that is coming very very soon. and yeah, can we learn more about or know what a story info, migraines? my name is the calls back said wow, thank you so much for joining.
