germonti is allow me to talk to explaining it for inciting deadly violence, reasons, student demonstrations. but students say the ruling class should be held accountable for the death of over $200.00 process. the, i'm so again, you're welcome to the program. 3 russian christmas fried as part of a major present, a swap on 1st. they have held a press conference on dw headquarters here in germany, opposition activists flooding a kind of those that ada ya. sion and andre piv are told of bad experiences in russian presence. i'm the shock suddenly being released. are you sufficient for? yeah, it is the 2nd time that i seats blossom of the sink, but i am in a cell. i see some kind of film going on on a big screen before me. and i was inside the area just

a week ago. so here's the day we were in the a, i look forward to the prison and then we're here know the price conference and on the wonderful ryan river. it's like so real. the actual thing that is happening to us yesterday also thought about all the questions that would come our way. and i sort of, i mean, had i be not on this list, i would be still sitting in korea in my presence. so and before the hot, hot heard about this event, i would have known the so this is an encouragement also to those who are still there in prison. it's a sign of the of lights in a way, those types of people that are still in russian prisons on the they have to suffer

10 of the conditions and i think they would be happy to hear that it's possible to be safe. i'm never going to play the role of an immigrant, and my goal is to return to russia. i'm a citizen of russia. i'm a russian politician. i'm the rest of the patriot. my goal is to have a free unhappy russian or my f one will be with a towards getting back to my home country in order to help to bring a boat, a prosperous, happy for you, russia. this is what i dedicated my life for, and i'm going to continue to do that. dedicated my life for russia. the money on it, cuts it over is un special, wrathful to on the situation of human rights in the russian federation. she joins us from geneva. welcome to the w. i'm can we start with your reaction to the set prisoner exchange that included russian dissidence being given the century here in

germany, a i'm a really should be a bit. busy is an amazing positive news in the midst of really awful news about human rights violations coming out the breast every day. and it's amazing to know that now with the me to cut them or does the yes and also go to mass of a, able to get us coverage and all the 16 of prisoners and will be, will be free after being given, being shot and trials. and totally on subjugated charges, length. the prison sentences. so yes, it's a positive news, but of course it's reminded me and even listening to just now to the 3 forgave press conference that i'm or is that yes and then people that of today in germany, it's reminded me really how important to days for us to continue advocating for

the release of full political prisoners in breast. the older 11300 political prisoners are still in rest. uh and their amount is getting bigger. of course, every day we don't know, even in the exact the exact number, how important it is that these exchange is just the 1st sign of the 1st positive news. but that there is a continuation and i think governments and particularly the one schools have been involved in this exchange and all others members of the united nations should unite the effort and use old offices to a to advocate for their release with the rest of the government and the interface really nice things change. do you think it's likely to create some sort of a path full of those? uh, those are the most of the thousands who are still being held in russian prisons, which i believe brezza should be both on the rest of the door. it is to fulfill

their obligations. while these exchanges every day, exclusively prerogative of government, it needs a diplomatic action that she has been undertaken between several governments and that saved a diplomatic action to negotiate this release. this, these changes are not something that is a regular occurrence. this is, you know, something that needs to be happening really as extraordinary mazur, but what i'm advertising for and has been advocating is for other states for germany, for the european union, for united states. you and member states to put pressure on the rest of the government and to release the rest of the political prisoners. okay, shouldn't be there in the place. so i continued it's above. okay, and so where do you stand on the morality of the sorts of deals swapping what the

kremlin hot was swapping and spies and the address for political prisoners and journalist to look, i'm not god's to judge the morales, the affections whether a human life needs to be saved or a human life needs to be given. this is really not up for um, for us to judge. um, all i can say is, i know for these people are for, were released and this are, in a sense, a journalist activities. people who oppose the war against your brain, look daily for 2 years in a call to brain and civilian is to have been motor there in the, in your brain, in this massive attack from their country. um, people in russia active is jane that is uh human rights defenders go stood up against the war champion, paying the prize for speaking to against the war and as restaurants. and i think

many of them in really poor child's condition, some of them uh, facing debts like the bone, he already died in detention. and several of these released yesterday were the ones that i felt would be next, like living at that him or is that which has a very serious show condition. and he was sentenced to 19 years in prison mand, on the, for writing an article against the war in your brain. i think these are brave individual, as these are the bravest amount of gas. i'm bulgarian, i'm not the rest. and, but i mean, among us in the world who spoke up in the face of grave danger, paid the prize, and it's a mirror go that their lives today, and they are free. so i think this is the biggest morales give this story. and i of course understand the concerns of the family of the guild jets in fields. dom i'm

there in germany. i was reading today with the button in, in the i was really pleasantly surprised to see that the brother of the guild sets, in a judge and commander killed by drastic of a member of the secret service. arrested. a goal was the key, but his son exchanged yesterday for the innocent man. this is exactly about the brother said, innocent man, what do you exchange for traffic of? and i think brian was trying to say that there is a deep mortality in this. okay. the units in will be now thank you for that time. when i cancelled over are you in special reference to on the situation or human rights of the russian federation? thank you. thank you. meanwhile, the kremlin has admitted that some of the 8 to prisoners released on 1st day by western countries in the swap with intelligence agents, chief amongst elizabeth and classic hall, who had been convicted of not

a hint inputting to have a chance of alas, shelves said the decision to release him was a difficult one. a successful job, i'm a try him for love. the mid 14 and germany's all sorts played a big role. and the key figure in the biggest prison the swaps since the cold war. but he didn't really feel like celebrating him up. it was not easy. my. and that is all because of the one man that the caustic off a convicted murderer. $24.00 adults and 2 children were part of the exchange involving multiple countries. but it only happens because germany released the t a got them killer crossteck of an elite operative with rushes f. as b security agency was serving a life sentence for killing a form of chechen militants and abundant park in 2019. and this is the nation audits by the kremlin chancellor solid set. the german government's head to wave,

the state's interest in enforcing crusty costs present sentence against the liberty of innocence in prison. people fish. i think it was the right decision. and if you had any doubts, i will lose the profit that talking to those who are now free yet. i didn't. meanwhile, 4 minutes, the book admitted that the government's move. we've rightly leads to much, much discussion. a discussion on whether this rights to release a convicted murderer to free, in a sense, people caption asked us this. i'm afraid that going forward. this will be used as a means of black mailing germany in the world of thoughts. and when he moved to a person, russia is still imprisoning a number of political dissidents. yeah, mister, yet, i don't want to speculate about another exchange just now because this should definitely not become a business model for the west. although dismissed,

it is important to protect our own citizens, but also the people who live as dissidence in the west is not only in germany, but also in the us endorsement. and this includes those individuals who have just been released. and i did decide to get back to them as crazy, cold case shows come see borders do not necessarily provide safety for most goals, opponents. but they can create, look now at civil stories making headlines around the world. us an option to, you know, recognize defendants by the opposition. confident edmondo gonzales as the witness of last weekend's presidential elections incompetent because my daughter was declared when it without clear evidence, fucking widespread protest in his way of his election or thought he's under pressure to release a detailed vote count to prove its claims in japan has formerly asked denmark to extradite and c waiving campaign to pull watson, the founder of the st shepherd, active his group was arrested last month on an international warrant and who ship docked in greenland. so here once mister watson on charges of breaking into

a japanese vessel in the antarctic ocean in 2010. so it, so seems is foreigners in china trying to locate dozens of people missing, include non profits of the most powerful types of everything in rips through the regions. official site least i think people have been confirmed that from time from came in. most the more recent, more extreme weather is expected in survivors and you are paying officials of paid the respects to rome and certainty victims killed by the nonsense. the memorial marks 18 yes and smoking 4000 people were killed in a mascot. and the so called a gypsy family champ, attachments, it's estimated that around half a 1000000 in rome, and since the people were killed across nazi off the pa, your hundreds of people, including officials and religious leaders have gathered at the most in doha, and cut off for the funeral office lane, how mostly the east may have honey honey. i lived in kits on an exile for many

years. he was assassinated in while the round size was in his writing. this file strike on wednesday. speculation is now rife about who will succeed him as needed on how much political waste. phillip thomas leaders are expected to meet soon to decide. however, replaces a smile. honey, a as a mazda is new, political leader has to decide on how the militant group will continue. it's fine with israel and also represent thomas on the world stage, or the man accused of orchestrating the tober 7th terror attacks on israel. yes, yes, in war is considered more radical than nia boats in war is believed to be hiding in the groups tunnel network beneath the gaza strip. and he's expected to remain the chief of homos in gaza. experts believe i'm more likely contender to replace hernia to be. this man colored michelle, a veteran her mazda official. he was previously the leader of hamas,

his political office directing the group from exile in 1996. he survived, and his really assassination attempt in jordan. michelle is considered more moderate and he has good ties with cots are in turkey. but his relations with syria, iran and his bloss soured over his support for the 2011 era of spring protests. another possible choice to replace honey a is holly ohio, a senior home us leader who also lives in exile. he was the target of and his early assassination attempt in 2007. ohio is viewed as a powerful figure within her moss who was close to hernia after honey is death l high, a valid to make israel pay a heavy price. while her mazda has a record is moving quickly to replace assassinated leaders, the selection process this time will be more challenging. many members of the groups main consultative body. the short council are in gaza. so a full leadership meeting is unlikely. well, i'll,

if i tell them the job is from the center for mid least and global order, that's a figure ton kit and bell and asked him about how he is likely successor. or, i think at this point we don't really know. i mean, um the mains that you mentioned in your report are part of the discussions, but it's going to be decided within the mouse. but so this also may not be the most important factor here. although it's, you know, the top leaders are important. it's not going to change the strategic direction of any of those organizations, while the targeted assassinations arvizo against the commanders of the so called axes of resistance. main still fear in the us. on the other hand, they're not going to do away. um, you know,

destroy the salt with resistance. so it's more a kind of a network that is a play here. i tried to region in the middle east. so figures are alone are not the main story, right? that's, that's, that's the end that you make. an interesting point that so the strategic, the objective remains destroy israel. so whoever res picked will just slough into that framework. so how would directly would the, is the rainy and leadership likely to be involved in these discussions within? i'm us, it's i think how mazda is opposed, stressful is a different story because when you look at, you know, relations between one and it has, what are those are much more closer. and they'll go back, you know, since the start to the run the resolution. and it's basically the iranians who, uh, you know, uh, traits it as well uh, the, the, some of the others regard court. right after the run in the run revolution in

1979. where as also what your report suggests, that there's been some tensions between the wrong and the home us over the question of how to react to the arrow spring, arriving in syria. where is it longer supporting this or a dictator? by charlotte said there was a kind of, you know, estrangement between iran and i'm us, uh, you know, for quite some, some time back from. so i believe that when it comes to him, us, iran is not going, you know, to be able to call the shots relatively speaking, if you compared for it. for instance, if such a thing would happen within as well. but then again, also has went off and also how mass, those are organizations, although they are heavily supported by the run there. can they have to be contextualized nationally as well?

how do i was involved in phase finally go sections of of gaza? what happens to that process? well, i'm us blames israel for killing that chiefly go to negotiate to and indeed, while his successor is still being sold as well. for obvious reason, this process that has been on the, on going in the capital of door has been for now at least a fact to torpedo. so it is going to very much and it's going to be a difficult, much more difficult process i had. it has been a very difficult process up until now. what we heard of more lately is that, you know, they're being a, quite a golf between the 2 sides, between the hamas and israel side. so it doesn't bode well, of course for the combination of those talks to achieve the cease fire and also to free are the is ready of hostages. um, so this is um,

at least for now i have a blow a to these negotiations. was that if it's all out in the josh from the center for middle eastern global order speaking to me, i know of you not to nigeria, west sky, erotic the skyrocketing cost of living is bringing prototypes, designs on to the streets. at least 4 people were killed after security forces, 5 live rounds and t, a gas to crowd protests about solar and got food prices are used to live movement has cool for 10 days of demonstrations against the way the government is handling what is now the countries worst economic downturn for decades, christine would results. this is lagos, but there was, seems like this in cities, across nigeria, as thousands of people pulled onto the streets to protest against the countries was costs of losing prices, cuz he is on food and seal prizes. a soaring in nigeria and people blame the government. what's in this country?

it seems to be going off something government is this, i don't, i don't know how to put it. there is actually, if in the land people are only people come the rooms off towards to see the golf night where i must know about the trying to find out about that. i found the friend for my family. well, not because i'm not had one team because i knew it since taking office. most me president bulletin, who has introduced economic reforms that have decimated people's purchasing power. the cost of living crises as being aggravated over the past, driven by 2 major issues before a subset of remover on the unification of the exchange rates of, of the narrow to the dollar to allow me to go races. uh, those 2 things. i have very weird combo to have them together. and the implication

is up prizes of cairo because the country's budget is also ties with the expenses for exceeding income. but the government is still spending hundreds of millions on pay and puts for politicians presentable. came in the gum blazing under the most subsidy. activate your sacrifice, but there's more because you all know for governance to steal, there's no accountability. the governments are not develop in the states that they've gotten true for what they usually get default in terms of location. but there's no just sufficient for that location and then there's not simply the fund that'd be already to, you know, or so to the politicians are leaving side to dispose of the people. it's the reason people will quote out to rarely under the banner, in bad governance, but to announce was low compared to the installs purchased that broke the south of the country to a stance to in 2020 there was

a strong police presence at the main prototypes location here in lagos, with heavily armed officers from different units of the police. it's part of the reason many stayed away today. they said that the police would use violent force to disperse the process. organize the say they will continue to come out despite what they call police intimidation. because if you has been imposed in the northern con, new space, we police by a light, bullets hot water and t a guess at demonstrates, is always the say, protest, they will hijacked by size polluted and destroyed prophecy. the, what if i'm missing, i doubt will be trading the lights of las vegas for some special munich moments. the city in the south of germany has scored a deal for a 10 concert series in a pop up stadium built just for her. since she won't have to fly from city to say,

think it's a win win situation, at least that's what both sides up tops, superstar adele is back in europe after 8 years. but this time shall only be performing in the southern german city, given unit. taking a break from her las vegas presidency, she'll be on stage here for 10 performances in august. the city one over the british singer with this gigantic pop up marina bill. just for adel on the munich exhibition grounds, it can accommodate some $80000.00 visitors per performance and it features a theme park adult world that a record breaking to a 120 meter long spray. and they just want to see your face and night too. so the screen is enormous and the amount of cameras that will be doing live on michael me will make, you know, may 8000 people for like it's just me. and one of them which ticket prices ranging from $75.00 to $430.00 euro's not all dates sold out. so organizers recently announced lucky dip tickets for just 35 years,

much to the annoyance of fans who paid far more. the bavarian capital hopes of bills many residency will be a major p or boost on here because then you went from here to the other side of the world, which as a result, munich was mentioned into the causative context of a notice to his recognized worldwide of course that's just madness. they move on to the cities head of economic development expects concert goers to bring in more than half a 1000000000 euros in revenue. thanks to adel unix hotels are already well booked and the other was quiet month of august. a good. we have a good interest to me then that's our high hotel capacity. and of course, our experience with major events like toby fast and major trade fast. and that must have convinced in the end to see what type of the, the native adele has worked her way up from humble beginnings to the top of the pop charts, winning 16 grammy awards and selling more than 100000000 albums. the,

the think of this is to think it was, i think this is something that can be a blueprint from munich, but certainly also for all of us cities around the world to understand. so these are you attract visitors to the city of the artist has the great advantage that she doesn't have to move around or to have to see even reach them yet. singles, environmental experts doubt this model is more sustainable. but for now, it's time to raise the curtain on a dell in music. this is a reminder of our top story based our president's free by russia and a historic prisoner exchange. told reporters at d. w. 's headquarters in germany, but they'll continue to have some freedom in the home. well, grateful to be afraid to express misgivings about leaving the country with many competitor to remain in prison. like something w. a documentary,

looking at how different generations view and to use cannabis. i'll be back at the top. i'm good the,
