the housing, the the migration policy starts november 9th. on the w this is the, the new is life invalid and a sudden surge and the death toll left a flash flooding in spite authorities warned residents to stay in doors and to avoid travel. as rescue crews are deployed across the country, also on the program, us vice president, cala harris uses a final major pitch of the election campaigns and tell the america it's time to turn the invest the us selection approaches nigerians a one to what a new administration will mean for the country. britain's biggest company, especially in germany's previous company, holes crises, tools, managements and unions. adults fogging disgust, st. john's comic this feature that it threatens to close plans to safe costs

the and feel welcome to the program, the beginning spending, but at least 64 people have died in flash flooding. it's one of the worst natural disasters to hit a european country for years. the situation is particularly bad in the mediterranean coastal regions of valencia, and most of you about a 1000 members of the country's emergency response units have been deployed, that it's a deluge that has destroyed homes. most of the adults, the central drains of detracts some isolated in foss blowing waters. i'm lucky to be that skewed by the m as in c services. what are these have door people in the affected

areas to stay home? but i think, i mean, they practically all the main roads have been cut off and the secondary roads as well. that is therefore not going out is not a mere recommendation. you know me, that it is a necessity to guarantee the safety of the people for stranded on the road at the end of the people who have to go to rescue other people's core and municipalities that they have not yet been able to reach you. and i'll pull you back. the waters are slowly subsiding, but the prime minister has won that the dean to this far from over the study. yeah . but i would like to ask citizens not to let the dog got down as the storm continues to cause damage. we cannot yet consider this devastating episode to be over. the last thought it'd be so the witness accounts suggest catastrophic losses . the flood took lots of dogs policies. it

took away everything another day, but got trapped in his car. and we don't know whether he's okay or no similar items tom's have less to spend in recent years. the reading father has had the country picked over from severe drought, but has also increased the risk of flash floods. scientist see these extreme video episodes have liked the link to climate change? that's good morning. i sent you a list of the condo pad as a sonata, who's in the manga in the spanish region of the c. welcome recada. what's the situation to? this is the afternoon. well, um, so you can see today in my mind a neighbor in uh probably is mostly uh, valencia the day today is by tom white, sunny and almost uh, difficult to imagine the, the storm that happened yesterday on to cover uh, especially the eastern part of the spain, devastating,

what's from our calling already? them the worse than now defense we did that is this, this kind of a weather event is how they call it in spain or a call dropped on. uh well, today is a day for the rescue missions to, to go for and this is still works to be done and there's a lot of people isolated induced and part of the space. right. how about did it get that email, sir? well uh yesterday there were um, over a 100 emergency calls there were people left to be taken out of the cause and rescue. a lot of damage means destructor. car, frogs. but i mean, the worst of it, the eh, took over a valencia on the as you would have said, there is, uh that sold. that is a, unfortunately, gonna keep the increasing probably cuz there's a lot of people in the scene isolated by the emergency service. it cannot access and there was a part game or so. yeah,

that's what he should originally region traditionally very by the affected by be sort of uh, weather events uh yesterday uh for it has to because it happens to affinity. we're a little bit more prepared for what is happening. tell us more about the rescue operations. you mentioned the difficulty is reaching faithful. yeah. well, there's over a 1001st of all, many type personnel from the emergency military units on the. 8 low, there's a lot of roads that are built on that are um, people kind of go through them and there's still, there's, uh, there's a little of a pushing to do to get to those people were talking about the areas we'd say where the plots do kilometers and a lot of, uh my, the, a lot of um, broken houses, if you see the image is completely devastating. a says 20 something that i didn't

happen then, so meters for med square meter. it didn't happen in all the 70 years. right. and you say this is a reason that there is a use to, to uh these uh these uh, weather events. um. so was the region prepared? yes. this weather events are usually watching it by warmer, maybe to renew walters. that the, i think more huge community to this, that kind of i think he's a freshman. and this combination of factors affects the reasons i feel like in my mind, guy might have him. i mean, or that has pcs. one is i see on one external. so it's more exposed to these sort of events, and it's also very of might be affected by a fancy rig ation. that'd be closer. that makes the draining harder. so it the many of the of the police, this is wrong here. i have had various from devastating floods in recent years. and this is some of the reasons why why people are ready without waiting for the

government to raise and alarm where uh, probably already is waiting inside the houses. okay, thank you for that. we thought him kind of had a scenario and spends most in region a correspondence and nicole races in the spanish capital. welcome to call. how to overstate how hobbies to escape the country pa them withheld a minute's silence. what else is the government doing? so actually you could see how shaken members of parliament were today in the morning when press colleagues tried to get statements. so you could really feel the shock in the morning even in parliament that was dismissed. adult minute of silence . a session was also suspended. and obviously prime minister pedro son, she has also spoke this morning. he guaranteed of the maximum of resources for the teams on the ground that already working together with the military, of course. but he said anything will be made available so they can help and get

people out of these traps. some people are still trapped in their houses by the flooding or cars or else where we don't really know the number of missing people right now. so there's lots of going on the ground and access. it's very difficult and politically, obviously there is this a state of morning and action, then you need to get the hands on a crisis committee has been on this copatrick test review since yesterday night as well. and then also some critics that say, obviously um we need to calculate better in these types of climate crisis. but that, let's say action is, is quick for me to be even quicker and maybe in the future we would even have to look at evacuating before these types of what you mentioned. rains hit that this, this region as we just heard, usually receive every year. under your appear in the union is offering assistance of the european union has already said that the compared to conceptualized system

is activated. so this means they can assist and help the rest of the teams on the ground with what they see via the satellites. they also offer a civil rescue team, so it might be possible that within the next few days, we will see some member states send and sending and deploying these teams. but bottom line also come to the commission's president or so a fund a line said that obviously that needs to be a type network working together between the member states. a to deal with these types of catastrophes within the you and to support each other. of course, in these times and the cold talk to us about what space has been doing to increase its resilience against such weather extremes of the resilience against these weather extremes is a topic here in spain also among a government bodies. of course, they talk a lot about the early warning systems and reactions, of course,

how to react quickly in these situations. what is lacking though is sufficient infrastructure that can always be handled. these types of rain falls. for example, we, this time we're talking about 500 meters on one square meter folding in a very short amount of time and lots of lots of water. the sol cannot handle that. it's too degraded. it cannot absorb the water. this is due to drought events. this is also because of extensive, accurate culture. then we have the infrastructure in cities, which is mainly the cement or, or steel. this doesn't accept a so water either and there's not enough, but has been done by the spanish government to prepare for this event. everybody is talking about preparedness, but preparedness also means major investments in infrastructures and in changing maybe the types of cities that we live in, especially cities that are prone to such events or other areas where we have obviously infrastructure like buildings like streets like bridges,

which have vanished over night in the regional fall in. so yeah, just from one moment to the other. thank gimme a call and the co reese in metro. a small stores making a headlines well stocked in georgia with prosecutors have begun. i'm investigation to allegations of votes ringing. rigging, during saturdays of complimentary elections, opposition causes and present southern remains, as would it be surely claimed. the pope was falsified in favor of the routing pro russia georgia dream policy. international observers say the vote was month by violations, but stopped short of saying it was rig holes of i didn't thought swan when both is the deciding whether the ruling botswana democratic party will extend its decades and on will be the peace bidding power since attempt to gain independence from britain campaigning has been dominated by economic challenges, including rising unemployment. gemini is recalled, it's on the bottom of it to me, ron, i made an escalating value of the execution of the jewel, a gym, and

a rainy and national jump said shall not execute. some sparked outrage in germany and beyond, around has rejected buildings criticism describing to show him how to as a terrorist, criminal us, us vice president, come to hire, says use to last major speech before voting day to portray next week's us presidential election as a choice between freedom and chaos, the vice president to use the movement to focus on coal issues, including the loading, the cost of living and protecting women's reproductive rights. but her speech was overshadowed by every month by president barton that appeared to disparage donald trump support as vice president. come, allah harris on stage in washington, dc, making one final plea to voters. politicians have got to stop treating immigration as an issue to scare of votes and then the election. i mean,

said treat it as the serious challenge that it is that we must finally come together to solve. with only a week to election day, the democrats campaign has a new challenge to is this remark by president joe biden loading on reacting to comments made out of trump, riley, or comedian tony hinge cliff called puerto rico, a quote, floating island of garbage over there. good, decent honorable people, the only garbage i slowed down there is your supporters. biden's seemingly referred to trump supporters as garbage. while a transcript of the speech suggests it may have been due to miss pronounciation. comment has infuriated republicans. joe biden stated that our supporters are garbage, the

garbage. he's talking about the border patrol, he's talking about nurses. he's talking about teachers, he's talking about everyday americans who love their country. they want to dream big again and support you, mr. president. and i hope their campaign is about to apologize from pistons distance himself from the comedian who made the remarks and even claimed he was the best choice for puerto ricans. somebody said that was a comedian that joked about puerto rico sampling, and i have no idea who i never saw, never heard of them, and don't want to hear of them from pets. also called on his supporters to forgive biden, using the opportunity to instead call for unity and appear and challenge to harris, who has positioned herself as the candidates pledging to be your president for all americans. monday, one of the elected, well, just days ahead of that election, people around the world are trying to figure out what the poll means for them. but

any nigerians looking across the atlantic on forming their own opinions about who should be the next us president. he definitely is a lead such a cool report from lagos, from who is getting sets for this us us elections. he describes himself as a graphic artist and an adventure around old though he has friends and family into us. he has never been there himself. as donald trump is hero, asylum has already spends more than 200 euros on things like this. as for me, i'm going to hold us periods. also 14 spiritual brands trump is going to win this election machine and the white house a couple of months ago. as the. busy names of america, our farm is convinced it, trump presidency, will benefits nigeria as economy. and he doesn't mind that trump has been insulting about africa in the past. those reality, how likely would i turn to face?

this is what do i even change the country and africa isn't really lying to before i think, you know, i'm on your way. let me do a sofa. and then you are here in markets around lagos, books by donald trump. long with the best sense i feel almost everything is we'll get started and i took off these beautiful. they were you ready? i got the let me make if you like any deep deed with the just country like nigeria is also trumps conservancy by agenda. including how the assume he spends on the rights of appeals to people. he believes in involved. i don't know. that's my opinion. he believes in god. and anybody who believes in boards is someone for me.

we need to do is the best thing that happened to the was no because we didn't that . yeah. you know what to do, you know the rights and to do, to bring the watch good to bring peace to do what i make every we have to be ok. popular columnist nadine, olga. she cannot understand how fellow nigerians lots of trump. she would love to see a presidents carmella harris as an inspiration for young women in high country. if it becomes the 1st american female president. but beyond every, all the economic and political split itself, how is that that america we'll send proof from political and economic message to the rest of the walls. i find he's determined to show his devotion to trump. this post is heading for his office. anyone doing

business with him will know who is angel is he also plans to visit us with toyota tayo is tre policy father with the african policy research institute, joins us from durham and the state of north carolina. welcome to data to you. is the us election to attracting a lots of attention to nigeria. but it is attractive some attention, which is quite interesting because at the moment there's lots of domestic policy issues. i'm going, i'm a major from being patients to the economy. unemployment, but then yes, the elections, i didn't get drugs and some attention as we've just seen. and which of the leading candidates do you think would be back to for the country? i think any kind of the, you know, improve the trade relations between the us and tonight period will be better for the country. so just last in the us is about 10 percent of major as exports. so that means that 10 percent of major essex was, we ended with the us,

all of this was the month, mainly the oil and gas. so it's a very important market for named area and we would not want any kind of do. they'll probably maybe pretend trade buyers in there, or even travel restrictions as has happened in the past. so i've seen that any kind of data mixed major less aggregated currency. as far as investments are spa street, as far as economic goods of books goes, will be based off what i'm sure i do see any indication of that from either of those candidates. well, i mean it's, it's, it's still very early days a head. um yes, you've heard some of what they've said, i'm fine policy related. but one of the country is coming to harvey. she's talking about the types of the gun, how she connects to the region. and of course with it i'm going to get to trump is also, you know, shared some of the views in terms of africa relations. i'd say that i think that doesn't seem to be much of a party for either of them. um, you know, as far as the company has gone, so it's really early days and i guess the case is going to be in the put in,

in terms of what expense they're gonna per ties. uh, you know, after can gauge meant of going forward for certain cases for the so the united states, the often seems like a, an after thoughts as i look up and say russia and china amazing got inroads. i'm a presumably a you'll hoping that that will change. absolutely, absolutely. because i mean, you see called the perspective of major area of the rush to obtain the dates or the rest of the chain of arguments is, is less relevant. i mean, mostly in west, off a couple then less where you find in major and for 90 once you're really interested in is trade products. it's an investment policy. it's about things like i go and making sure that it's a cheese object to. they will settle for which is to help us to kind of call on these like major industrialize. it's also the nature and dashboard that he's present in, in, in, in, in the us. but also the fact that a lot of major hands on the kids come and study in the us or maybe to walk in the us room, look me from nigeria. so that is more of the interest from the inside of you wise.

and just in terms of what has really changed so far, the bibles and ministration did promise to elevate the voices of africans, inc. level, decision making and institutions. did he make good on that promise? there's been some efforts in that direction and there is no doubt. i know, for example, just last year that was the council though, settled for the desperate engagements by that, by the dividing administration. and then there's been some talk about, you know, mobile teen palmer seats and very in the very buttons, tables. i'd also mentioned that there's a p g i, which is about investor train investments. it's a g 7. it was led by the u. s. a, which was, i mean, hoping so it's getting more minutes on over time. so yeah, there's been some efforts in that direction, but i'd say that things could have definitely been up to look pasta. and we hope that the whatever comes in next is gonna increase momentum. as far as that goes. okay, thank you for joining us, toyota, toyota, toyota with a african policy research institute. it's a gemini,

his biggest comic of folks saga, and he's facing an existential crisis. v. w. net profits file. a message, 64 percent, and the 1st 9 months of this year, company is planning to cut costs by closing at least $3.00 plants, given germany a unions that meeting management of the company headquarters in false vocaphone waves negotiations, which will also deal with the overall crisis driven transfer off sholtes as indicated that workers should not have to pay with the jobs for poor management decisions in the past as well. i asked madi, see now from dw business about the mood of vito police headquarters in volstead. well, understandably, the mood is very gloomy. here this morning, we were standing at one of the main entrances to the factory and spoke to work or as they were heading to their shift. then we spoke to one man who has worked at fox on for 35 years. and he said that the mood and the situation is never felt as

serious as a field right now. but we also spoke to a worker said, look, listen, crises, come and go. and company boards come and go, but the cars will continue to be manufactured here. so gloominess, but also a little bit of optimism and it felt like there was a lot of hole pending on these talks, which just kicked off your advice book between employee representatives and the folks like management on wage contracts for folks logs workers and what a work is representatives saying ahead of the tools right, so this morning, a task and glue guy, the chief negotiator for the very powerful in game and type of union told press that workers expect the future for all 10 plans, all 10 factories of folks logging here in germany and should that future not be safe, guarded by folks like management in that case,

workers do not take strikes off the table, which would be potentially starting in the beginning of december. but overall, employee representatives showed themselves very open to negotiations and very curious in a way to see if folks i can finally has applied for its employees future going forward in this country. now folks are also have representatives to speak to the press of the chief of the personnel on the mice when k. and he reiterated that the german car industry is in a tough spot. that production costs and jeremy are simply too high. but unlike the employee representatives, he didn't open up the round for questions from the press. so folks aren't really showing a very closed phase here. and for the most book today that's i'm not joking. profit . so i mentioned 64 percent. that's huge. did tell us about the overall significance of that right. 64 percent, as he mentioned is huge. you don't need to be an industry professional to

understand the significance of such a big drop. it means volkswagen isn't doing well and the reason it's not doing well is it that it's facing many headwinds? actually the biggest one and it's whole market in china where buyers are looking more towards home, the throne brands like b, y, d. but also here in europe where people's budgets are pressed by inflation and people aren't ready to spend larger sums on an electric vehicle from folks log then on a regular vehicle from another company. lastly, folks aren't as also closely watching the presidential race in the us, where there is big talks of terrors, which of course, are worrying for an international brand like so, like folks are and so big worries across the board and therefore these historic moves this week, the 1st time in 5 songs, history that the company is talking about plans, closures, and that these jobs that folks log which used to be a scene, a safe is safe to get into the middle class are no longer that. ok, thank you for the have to embody muddy theda to v w headquarters in false book.
