9:02 am
announced german johnson, the souls to mainstream political parties to form. busy illusions without right being extreme is the most recognizable phase of germany's far right. a f d now be are in hooker has let a right wing extremist party to victory and one of germany, 16 states for the 1st time in postwar, germany, a historic victory. he declares now who could aims to lead the regional government? here isn't we are ready to take on the responsibility of forming a government to upon them as parliamentary tradition here in germany that the strongest policy invites others. the tools in the coming week will hold talks and the party committees will analyze the situation and then we'll decide to who will present the office of talks. but just who would take up that offer is another question. other parties have ruled out governing with the a f d u, which they see as anti democratic in germany's other regional election in saxony. a f b came in 2nd,
9:03 am
but their margin behind the conservative christian democrats was razor since the christian democrats now face challenge and coalition talks to keep the, the pay the results in to ring. you and saxony are also seen as a disaster for the coalition. and governing in berlin, lead by the center left the social democrats to main screen party space, another challenge and 3 weeks when a 3rd eastern german state brandenburg also votes for a new parliament. the f d is leading poles there, but the far left populace b. s w is also a force to be reckoned with, the political landscape and the east is becoming increasingly unpredictable. just one year before national elections. all right, let's have a more detailed look at the preliminary official results beginning with during yep, the se, in blue here was the clear winner with nearly a 3rd of the vote, followed by the conservative cd you in black with less than a quarter. johnson,
9:04 am
i shall says s b. d received only 6 posts and while the other 2 parties in the national government, the greens and the free democrats will not be taking any seats in parliament because they fell below the threshold of 5 percent. the new left wing populace sort of wagner mixed the lines in orange out the fall and how old faulty the lift in peak as get more from beat up a particular corresponded matthew mall who is joining me from touring. yes. capital effort, not to so almost a 3rd of the volts going to the if the how likely is in the particle. now enter dog fund. it's very unlikely garage because what we have is we have this morning. we've got the, the, the leaders on the talk shows saying, hey, it would be dec democratically legitimate for us not to be involved in these talks . you've got them saying to the other parties, they really need to. we think this,
9:05 am
this brand from our firewall that the other parties have, which is this, this kind of agreement, not to work with the, the, the say the best result is a move in for that, not them to reconsider that. and they're basically throwing down the gauntlet to then say, come to us and we can negotiate. and i, i think it's incredibly unlikely that that will happen once that bu she is when she really painstaking long discussions and negotiations with the other parties who i really idea. logical opponents of some of the fall left is we had some of the fall, right. and then someone in the middle, so you put these, i'm already get a difficult negotiations call me off ahead for what was perhaps more important even if they, if they don't come out, admonished the former government, you know, have a us of lucky minority this really caused trouble, and we thought we, you know, we had to just know that the city of dc and to india is, is labeled the right way extremist policy by the security services. i. one of the things that the, if you cannot do is they can block the appointment of the next head of the security services here. because they have one part of the seats on the also able to stop
9:06 am
your election. so even though the that might go against power as they do have power and that's important to remember as today. matter, we also saw a strong showing for a new left wing, popular, spotty way up populace the messages resonate thing so strongly with waters where you are a yeah, there's a, there's a kind of number of reasons for that. really, especially when you're on the campaign trail here, you know it's, it's not really so regional election, but it's only 4 on really regional issues. it'd be big, big issues, things like the war and ukraine really saw upfront in the center here. and there's, there's, um, the issue with migration is within a print present, it throws, it comes heading on essentially what you have is you've also got this and coming together with uncertainty the that's one of the pandemic dakota virus pandemic. and then also inflation. so people feeling that they're, that they've got less money every month, feeling that they're worried about jeremy being dragged into a war. all of that comes together. combined with the fact that the coalition
9:07 am
government and berlin is doing really badly and approval ratings. and so this was an opportunity if you'd like, for the populace to say, look, we have all the answers to all these problems. and also you can, you can send a message to the, to the parties in bell. and so that all came together to produce the result which has almost $45.00 more per cent potentially of people voting for popular as parties . and so that means we, we have to see how the government lend really feels about whether they that's going to be questions and reprisals. and so the next weeks we're going to see pressure on, on, on government. and i like to try to kind of come up with an answer. we leave it there for the moment, but thanks so much for joining us this morning. did the thing called responding? that's the mall. joining us the from apple, thanks so much. the elections also in the largest state of sykes and e, which includes the cities of based in and lives ish. let's have a look at the preliminary results there. the mainstream conservatives came out is the strongest policy with nearly 32 percent aging of the f d,
9:08 am
which is set to be the 2nd, the strongest bond to the side of volume next alliance game inside with other policies in a single digits. the political corresponding judas identity, standing by inspection these capital invest in june up. so the consultants remain the strongest parties here. but when they be able to form a government for the conservatives are about to face some difficult negotiations to try the form that government. an easy solution would be to form a government with the a f d. they would have definitely a majority there. but we know that the cd has said clearly they do not want to form an alliance with the ac. they want to keep that firewall up to not allow the ac to come into the government. so if they stick to that position, we will not see an easy government for nation here. there is a possibility that the cd you will have to go into a minority government, possibly with a chance or on assurances s b. the party possibly still with the greens,
9:09 am
but that wouldn't mean that they would need the external support of the saga volumes. next alliance would not be part of the government, but a members of the party would probably have to vote in favor of, of some of the measures that the cd you government would want to pass. and that might prove complicated also because of the cycle values and extra lines has some positions that are close to those of the i a, a see, for example, on migration for example, a for uh, a support uh to ukraine which they want to pull back. so this looks like quite a complicated situation for the cd. you here in saxony, for the fact remains of the bought i'd a be did come in 2nd and say is it does want to be part of the government. is that a realistic wish of the it is a realistic wish, but we have heard from the see to you, but also from the other parties that they don't want anything to do with the
9:10 am
a fee and government. we've even heard from chancellor all of shaun's inviting all the other parties to form alliances to keep the a if the out of one thing is for sure where the f b then to a b and the opposition, they are likely to continue their strong opposition. they're likely to continue to drive public debates and also influence of the political agenda. but the big question that now arise is also at the national level is, can the other mainstream parties in germany continued to keep the a of the out? is it something that is realistic when the a, if the gets a so many votes and has so much support or will a time come in germany when the a, if the becomes a mainstream party and enters actual governments, something that has started happening across europe. but we have not yet seen in germany, really with the for the moment, but thanks so much for joining us today this morning due to move due to southerly embrace them. thanks so much for an overall view of all these
9:11 am
results. mean i'm joined by the w. c for digging into the mikaela coast. i mean like, good morning. what do these results mean for the government at the national level with a year to go before national elections? it's yes, they put the government of sounds that would have sold sues from the social democrats policy on the intense pressure, even the social democrats who are leading the government in single low single digits in both of those states that went to the polls. and although both states that voted on sunday, only make up purchased in the 8 percent of the german population. timing is a key. it shows a potential white, a trend in germany's east and those eastern states, which in the past were traditionally strongholds of the left party, the success of policy to the communist, the former east, germany. and that appears to have completely changed in these elections. and all of
9:12 am
a sudden we see voters and looking for also the identity of the, of the east and, and in a fall, right. the migration policy, the alternative for germany. and the really interesting thing today is whether we will see messages of unity that this complicated in fi seeing 3 way coalition of all the felts and might be determined to really stick together now and get back to it and the messaging e, whether the 3 policies will now go on to into booster mode if we're ready campaigning against each other. that is something that we have seen in recent weeks and months with each of the 3 policies in the current coal as an eager to demonstrate their own profile and assess it against the other part the. so that's the big question here and by then today. oh, but what explains these results of the all seeing in the east of the country?
9:13 am
is it all to do with the dissatisfaction over migration? it's well, it's not all to do with migration, although migration wasn't spelt one and 2 on the list of concerns of focus. but there is a deep sense of frustration. and that is most of all a very bleak outlook into the future. and this is something that actually is nationwide, and that really needs to concern all sorts of turn the tide or not. and there's a lot of dissatisfaction with the central government as well, which community didn't help and who left. so it's has very low popularity ratings, and interestingly, it was not any of those policies that are currently in the governing coalition, who manage to really make any kind of gains or even keep the own level. it is the conservatives. i'm going to michael's cd. you policy, that is the main office, this in part of a policy here in germany at the moment that it can now claim to be the most
9:14 am
effective way of keeping the fall right alternative for germany at bay and these 2 eastern states. having said that, timing is everything, it's an it's a resale election here in germany where we're going to see one more eastern state of from the buck. also go to the polls. it is social democrat, legs, and that will be a big test for it will have sold. so this policy and himself, whether the social democrats can actually at themselves, hold up against the far right a if the policy. but i think it's for all the telling that and the state premier, this is, there's a democrat state from you. it doesn't seem that keen on his own tons, the appearing in that campaign. so we'll know more on the 22nd of september when those polls are conducted here. we leave it there for the moment, the, the chief political item, if you like to have them. thanks so much i or to either elect but a nation wide strike has begun him to add pressuring the government to secure the
9:15 am
needs of the remaining hostages. held by how mos in gaza, the country's largest labor union, called for the one day strike. demonstrators have begun blocking the main roads across the country and flights. so televisions been going on, ample time, facing a delay due to the strike. last night, most demonstrations took place across israel, pressuring the governments to make a d with some us to free hostages state of health in does up the filters come off, the israel is mandatory said 6 hostages were killed by the from us captors. the army said soldiers found their bodies at a short time later in a tunnel the, the anger and frustration boil over on the street. the teller, the police clash with demonstrators. they've come out in the 10s of thousands to demand an immediate sizes ceasefire. deal that would allow the remaining hostages,
9:16 am
kidnapped on october the 7th to come home. they accuse prime minister benjamin netanyahu of prolonging the war for political gain, of putting his own governments political survival above the lives of the hostages. the issue is to limp mor protesters. this riley is taking place outside the prime minister's office is part of a wave of nationwide grief and anger ripping israel as the bodies of 6 more hostages are recovered. from garza, the the you can play with the civilian slice. you cannot do that. and with demand with demand video to be right now,
9:17 am
that's why we marching for this one with the many amenities ma'am, are the hostages here against the government and calling on the demonstrations are taking place on the same date. funeral services are underway for the hostages. their bodies recovered a day earlier in a tunnel under the city of rossa and southern gaza. according to the military, they were killed by whom us ours, before their bodies were discovered. for more and more is released the blame for this lives with their government because it was unable to secure for a deal to bring them home. joining their campaign of pressure on the government, a powerful new ally, the head of israel's largest trade union come when the last 11 months i have shown responsibility. no more. i called on the people of israel to take the streets to leave the work places i call on old economic organizations of the state of israel.
9:18 am
we have joined the strike because he is union, represents some $800000.00 workers and areas as diverse as health care, transportation, and banking, basketball from the debit card responding, tanya came out. who's covering the story for us from jerusalem, tanya, israel's main labor union has called a general strike today. i'll be expecting high participation. i mean, it is significant that the labor union, it's one of the most powerful unions to hit start who's joined or cold for this. a general strike in which we're seeing that is a nationwide stripe, but not every community is participating in that. so we're seeing some of the ministry's laying down the work. we have the bangs and businesses high tech times have a told their, a workers, they can leave to go out and protest to be in the streets. they have hospital switching to a weekend mode and also the main uh tv channels here in uh is well have over the
9:19 am
phone last night on that have set to cancel the entertainment programs focusing solely on the political situation. also covering the funerals, of course, and the protests that are taking place. no. however, you know, those who are not throwing in those protests that also shows the division in the country. you have politically speaking, some that are saying this is just playing into the hands of him. us killed the hostages and others that are basically saying we need uh, you know, the government needs to agree to a deal to bring the remaining hostages home. so it's still to see this is a very significant development, but it's still to see what actually the impacts will be of that strike your say, it's significant, but we'll just strike be able to pressure benjamin netanyahu to accept or through the lens that killed the needs of hostages as well received over the past
9:20 am
11 months or so uh, every saturday and also during the week, protest by the relatives of family members and supporters who have been calling on the government to bring about a sci fi idea. that would also see the release of the hostages, and it didn't really impact that much on the government. and on time mr. benjamin netanyahu, who is actually still going to go for it, is try to to, of maximum military pressure on him, us. and also claiming her mazda not agreeing to a cease fire deal that is being negotiated in recent weeks. now, what i've seen last night, also these purchases a lot of distrust, a and anger against the government. and prime minister benjamin netanyahu insisting you know from his partner, north bunching on key issues like the philadelphia, corey,
9:21 am
though there was actually vote in the cabinet saying that there will be no withdrawal from a is rarely a troops also clashing with his defense minister, you of scotland, who voted against it, but i think what's here at stake is the case of those 6 hostages. the body said have been found. many are so angry because they are saying they could have been released or ready to have been, are killed only in the past. days, according to forensic evidence, that's according to the health ministry. i'm us has denied that there were short, according to these really is a close range and many here saying, you know, this could have been avoided and they could have been released in a hostage deal. so it's still to see whether these strikes and protests will actually impact on the government. and it strategy does tanya kramer in jerusalem, thanks so much. i still ukraine next to other countries. army say is that it's
9:22 am
repelling a new russian adam assault on keys. the latest in about ours of recent effects, the mayor has reported damage at one of the city's water treatment plants. it comes off the russian and strikes of the city of hot keys in the east of the country, left dozens in dried and infrastructure damaged the weekend. this is the moment when russian resides struck khaki shopping center and the sports complex. what among the buildings hit? so you community and also shows the the attacks in the dozens of civilians including 5 children and some were rescued from that or above. it looks like it's small civilian infrastructure. this shopping center was full of people during the day. there were 2 it according to preliminary
9:23 am
information, there were 4 strikes on the policy supports in the city of a hard clinic. and civilians were injured in the khaki by dec prompted ukrainian president. while the med zelinski to again implored allies to allow us to find rest and supplied, midsize deeper into russian territory. to stop moscow's that tax, their origins should bring most of the corps, rush it into peace for them to move from dishonest rhetoric about products and what the steps required to end the war. just to read our land from occupation and occupier as them. and we also need to find potent instruments, gave instrument the attack and khaki came after you clean lots of the will overnight drove the tags against targets in russia, which russian nonfiction se ignited fires at the moscow oil refinery and
9:24 am
a power station. ukraine has not commented on the themes in recent months. p. if sources have stepped up with tax daily, i think for repeated it strikes like this one and now your up has long been a preferred destination for young chinese looking to study abroad. but those who express opposition to chinese government policies are increasingly reporting intimidation and harassment at university, often from fellow chinese students. students, i have university at often, far away from home, yet some are still not fought enough. i met with a student from mainland china to protect their identity. we will call them sada and will use their preferred pronouns, the them side. i starting media in college or in a graduate program at the university of amsterdam and says they are being monitored by nationalist chinese students in class during certain of my school projects or
9:25 am
classes. when i express certain opinions, the chinese apologies might not like very much. i would have some issues because certain pro china students have threatened to report me or they have lots of issues with me. i was indeed reported to the chinese police and my family were cold as a consequence. and that assman dc extends beyond the campus as sought out, also organizes peacefully for tests for human rights including porpoise calling out train us the rights record side. i had to install the camera in the home because of repeated harassment. and amnesty international reports released earlier this year said so rylan's and had osmond are being used to intimidate chinese and hong kong students start being in at least 8 countries invest in europe and north america. almost one 3rd of the 32 students that we spoke to had had their family in china, harassed by police or, or government officials in response to activities that the students had undertaken
9:26 am
abroad. in some instances, it was clear that the students were under government surveillance because, for instance, they might speak at a rally in a country in europe or north america. and within hours, their parents in china are contacted by police who are threatening them to make sure that their child is silent. financial refresher, it is another tactic employed by china in europe, in countries, especially against those taking part in protest, especially for students. this is problematic because most students get the tuition fee, some living costs paid by our families, chinese product. these can also tell parents to cut the sol financially at any time . this is one of the biggest presses that students can have in the netherlands. gauges from hong kong and is studying lord the university of amsterdam. she wants to be an international human rights lawyer, but also regularly faces had osmond and intimidation to thread. so on her phone,
9:27 am
the climate of fear has taken it's stolen on kids academic plans. i saw on the news about a student who studies in japan and being arrested back in hong kong for what she had said overseas. and this made me have to reconsider my thesis topic to my original topic was about the national security little i have to change my thesis topic into something less sensitive in order to protect myself and my family back in hong kong. the universities themselves are finding the situation hard to deal with, but in the netherlands, they have started to formulate policies to counter threats, to their international students. the diplomats have a basement and at the moment we're working on a framework of action for them or that because we hear that there is influence not only from the state of china that, that ok, but also from criminal organizations that extort and threaten them. and but over what happens in their home country,
9:28 am
we have less influence for no influence mean that includes the planning to build. the governments in china and hong kong deny any involvement in that impression of the students abroad. but side out and keep, continue to face tests and so balance the see that to afraid to, to go on home a batch report by contrast. explain all that. a quick reminder of the top started the following for you uh, this uh for the 1st time since world war 2. i thought i thought to you has won a state election in germany. the alternative for germany party, the f d one more than 32 percent of the vote in the eastern states of touring, yet that's age for the moment. coming up. also the break, the 77 percent fix a closer look at the youth lead process that have grouped kenya, reese and faith. i'm on used. remember to visit our website dw, dot com, and finish manage invalid using the
9:29 am
9:30 am
hello and welcome the 77 percent. so this week we are in 10 years capital nairobi west since june, mississippi, and indeed the rest of the country has been turned into a political stage visa protested by young people and some even lost their lives. small coming up on this very special edition. so i'm either a few months now if you've seen any images from kind of lately, you may notice that today is a very quiet did here and they will be there. no chance in crowds must just lead no t a goes but seems to be june. young tenants have been gathering on these 3.
