9:01 am
settle in the territory. the, i'm so okay, welcome to the program to them and diplomats in sylvia. i've helped tools for the head of the rebel group that brought down the government to buy aside the foreign ministry in by then says that delegation spoke with my mouth shut off. who leads the islamist group? higher tax rate, as sean h t s. gym and diplomats also made direct contact with other high ranking officials in the interim government. and these are filed pictures of the icj test leader who's also nights and representatives of other european countries and of the united nations. when i asked the w political correspondent julius, i doubt he was the gym and diplomats were hoping to achieve. so this was the 1st time that german diplomats were back in damascus since 2012 since of the civil war
9:02 am
in the country kicked off and they were, they're speaking to, as you said, representatives of, of the transitional government to discuss how this transition can unfold a peacefully for syria, they said that the focus of the talks was on ensuring that the rights of minorities and the women especially are guaranteed in this transition in syria. they said the meeting also included talks with representatives of civil society and religious minorities. and they said they also inspected the building of the german embassy, which has been sitting empty in damascus since 2012. but we've also also heard from the german 4 ministry that it says it is aware of the origins of 80 s that its origins are grounded in. okay, to all kind of ideology and they say they're keeping a close eye on. wow. the group is going to act and, and, and,
9:03 am
and move forward in this transition. right, on the removal of side has sparked debates here in germany about returning syrians to the home country. what of audrey, i'm? it is political policy say, as well, we have heard from the day after the fall of a side coming, especially from a parties on the far right. and the conservatives calls for syrians to return to syria. now that the re g regime has fallen, we've heard from ali side on the leader of the far right s the. she said that the german, these borders are now closed. and she called for all the people who were celebrating the fall of us out on the streets of germany to return to syria. we've also heard from the conservative, see to you from one of its main personalities in a former health ministry and spawn. he said that germany should organize a charter flights for syrians who want to return to syria and offer them an incentive of a 1000 euros to do so. now,
9:04 am
a different position coming from the german chancellor all f shows. he said in a speech directed also to syrians in germany that a new syrians who wants to be in germany are obviously welcome in the country. and he said that some statements coming from politicians have the stabilize many a fellow syrian citizens here in in the country. but to find out what a syrians in germany actually think about this whole debate. i met a syrian doctor who's been here in germany since 2015. let's have a listen to to what he has to tell me. the i'm, this is a far cry from is word treating war injuries in the syrian civil war. but in 2015, a lot of stuff left of the mass cause hospital where he'd worked to come to germany . now a doctor on an emergency war, just east of berlin. the 38 year old treats very different injuries. still the german hospital now feels like home. it feels like
9:05 am
a big family. that's what i need it actually. and we have like we, we, we experience a lot of things together like emergencies. some they are about and worse than others. some of this are great, so that's what i liked this identity ross, i need also, and i get it here in addition to a great team. so i couldn't ask for more of the office, one of the around 6000 syrian doctors in germany who work in hospitals or doctors offices. syrians make up the largest group of 4 and doctors in the country. and now the sudden fall of the aside regime has raised the question, what would happen to germany's health care system if these doctors begin returning to syria? now i'm in a conch and always on a fuss selections that we have the same problem in almost all hospitals, where vacancies are difficult to fill because of demographic trends. we have an aging population including among doctors who are leaving the profession and relatively few younger ones. are coming in,
9:06 am
which is why we are dependent on doctors from e, you know, new countries and gives us, oh, that's hospital supervisor says he has become an essential member of her team. she says is experienced back in war torn syria, set some a part. but if he returned, she would lose a valuable colleague and a friend. i don't think our house to send cooks the wife is all those colleagues from other countries would go back home. even now with all this or in doctors here in our hospitals, we were looking for colleagues as josh was overjoyed when you heard about the end of assad's regime. but he says it's too early to tell whether he will go back. i can tell you i or i can assure you others that mean like many other of syrian people in germany, not only doctors, but syrians in general, a blog to go back to a home which is stable where we can live like and do some digging. it too. so if
9:07 am
our home could provide that in the next few years, i think a lot of people with consider going back today as off as german citizenship and says it's place right now is in germany doing the job he loves. but he is full of optimism for serious future and says he can't rule out going back one day. so julia saw daddy, i gave him the show to this, the vet you mentioned, all efforts being made to try and persuade the savings to stay as well. we haven't seen any specific efforts now coming out of the government, specifically directive towards the syrians given the situation now after the fall of us side in syria. but to the government has been trying now for the last couple years, at least to implement measures that can make the country more attractive to 4 and workers. in general, germany has a big gap to fill in the labor market and authority say the only way to actually be
9:08 am
able to fill that gap is by attracting for and workers in many different fields of medicine and health care is one of the most effective, not only doctors, but also nurses and other care personnel. and germany does hope to see that these measures will actually bring a more workforce to the country. but something i've also discussed with a mr. ad of and also with his supervisor is that a big issue is also the welcoming culture that is important to foster in germany, but especially in the medical profession, it has to be made more attractive. for example, the wrote, the big staff shortages have made conditions quite difficult for doctors in germany, over worked a stressful environment. i often lack of the latest technology. so these are all issues that can be addressed at the systemic level, but also in individual hospitals. and it's an issue definitely in health care, but also in other sectors. we see
9:09 am
a syrian people employed in germany in different sectors. we've heard a lot of different industries, a speak up and say that it is important that a syrian workers don't leave the countries and that they are allowed to stay here because they're such an important part of a german business. okay, julie, thank you for that date of the political correspondent, julia. so debbie, as i say, sized when the 14 month conflicts between israel and how mass could soon be agreed . us officials say that a grounds for cautious optimism after the after us. egypt and guitar negotiates has made an intensive push to advance the sci fi tools, but i think in the gaza strip is continuing on this really altered nationalist making plans to settle their dw tanya claimant reports. this is what the balance and sent you a goal. so it looks like i'll see you with a media of present list more states it and then came here from dallas. the city,
9:10 am
the former body building champion has been displaced. 9 times. that's lock box. and biggest dream is to return the call to the city. we dream every day about our homes and neighborhood and visit our neighbors and friends, but we have begun to feel that a return. it is impossible. the united nation says over 90 percent of people in garza has been made homeless and forcibly displaced since the war began. in 14 months or for the is there any military has divided the colors a strip into several parts. a buffer zone appears to run along its eastern border and the territory is effective to divided into north and south by the newly created minutes every quarter. military tech points make it's practically impossible for palestinians to return home to the north. and the destruction of this satellite picture shows sent you a goal setting september 2023. this is the same place within minutes of the inquiry
9:11 am
door running from east to west in november 2024 a world away. and israel, i need to talk of dreams of going back to casa, she's in his reading, lift, and the next i have any supplemented center because of 430. yes. such elements are deleted under international no, all in 2005 is read unilaterally, dismantled as 21 supplements in gone. so coming out we were asked to leave a forced to live in 2005. we said you're going to see these rackets coming in to israel all over. it's going to go to television and, and it's not logical because there's never going to be peace if we don't want to live next door to each other and it's never c. and there aggressive, that's the type of people that's their culture and when week. so we have a tool, the 7 see the stream is take over and there were many people there who would love
9:12 am
to live. if we want to have this, we have to be in charge and know this is so close is real, this has to be part of is a flat tri nationalist like tucker. i hope that if the military stays in gaza is very easy supplements and the palestinian territory will follow. also establishing settlements and golf and it's not an efficient, it is really come from the policy. many on the right open the discuss it. this member of kinetic from newton young's, the quick party says the is there any military will likely stay inside garza for years to come? right. there needs to be a very hard and painful payment in land from the area that made this roche as attacks against our civilians. therefore, we need to take the landing to occupy it and after we do so and apply is where the silver and the uh settlements and, and then you know, the villages and towns will be there, change the quote for,
9:13 am
for history. so lets but this opposition party leader says such plans are dangerous for israel or even for me. and the only reason why we don't have an agreement with homos and finishing the war is because the extreme writing is a diction rides, is willing to continue this woolforth, tennessee. and to take the opportunity of this war. in fact, to re establish settlements inside the guards of street, this is totally unacceptable. and we are going to fight it in the palestinian statement as though for an offense, this international pressure is needed to try to stop any plans for an exemption in gaza or the occupied westbank. so we have been under occupation for so long, and it's only a time for exercising, override force, as donation and materializing state on the ground after what has
9:14 am
happened in the last year in gaza with all the, the casualties, the killing, the destruction, everything that a palace then you have been undergoing the, in the immense suffering compounding the previous suffering only deserves that the was looks at our plight animal respectful manner and looks at us as human beings to with more and more people being displaced by israel's continuing military invasion of northern garza many fearful about what's to come to the kind of women that fathers and grandfathers were told in 1948, they would return soon, but they did not. as always, we feared this will happen to us again. for many see it nicest about surviving from day to day. any thoughts of the future are on home
9:15 am
let's explore this with the the, the, the middle east on west shawnee resigned us. so welcome back. shawnee, so we, we just sold palestinians that warning. they might never return home and we saw ultra nationalist is right. is planning to occupied pods of gaza. is anybody clear about what gaza is likely to look like if and when the fighting and saw it very much? depends on who you talk to. i mean, if you look at the extreme right, and these really government and these really coalition and that's in the hours far right. most extreme coalition with israel ever seen, they are very clear. they don't even high their intentions. they feel like the only way for retribution in a way against what has happened on october 7th would be conquering gaza again and having his early settlements choose settlements there. but if you try to talk about other forces international forces and make more modern forces, it's clear this plan is not very much feasible. and if you look about, you know, the americans as well. they're talking about, you know, how we help garza rebuild itself and reconstruct itself. and we've been hearing
9:16 am
yesterday a reports that the saudis are very much interested in partaking. and part of the, of the deal would be for the saudis to be able to take over guys on or, or the reconstruction effort would be under a bigger ceasefire deal. that would include also a pathway to a palestinian statehood that israel would have to come into. and we've seen some immense shifts in the last few weeks, particularly in lab and on and serious. how is they impacted moves towards a safe spot? well, the ways really see that is that they feel that from us has no isolated most of its backers and is likely in the region if it's has by law and astrology in lebanon. if, of course, the south side in syria who's gone in and the rating and uh, you know, proxies at you and you're a new themselves. so when we can very much, don't seem to have much ability or appetite to start any real escalation or fight with israel. and so from us is basically basically isolated,
9:17 am
missed what israel is counting on. because if you look at the talks we're seeing now about the ceasefire. fundamentally the details have not changed much since it was 1st introduced actually in january. and then again, by a, by that in may and in july. so what change are the circumstances? this is a big part of this change. the middle east has changed and you know, this shifting dynamics. the is really, is hope these come us more isolated and give it more incentive to try and, and, you know, make concessions. ok. and the is ready. prime minister benjamin netanyahu has been criticized for a long time. people saying that he has no actual interest in reaching a deal. how fair is that criticism? oh, i think the fact on the ground and the american stick to the fact that some us was the one who was a, you know, making it impossible. but there is an inside is a lot of feeling that and that's in the a, was stalling, partially because he wanted to avoid the need to make it to, to testify in his uh, in the trial that he used. you know, he has a b, b, 's days today as well. we'll be on the stand talking about the allegations against
9:18 am
him when he comes to bribery and, and fraud. and he's the feeling was that he's trying to push that day and he's using the war as a pretext for that. and the setup the way as well as a lot of achievement center. and the i was very much proud to show of what he has done in weakening israel's enemies around the region. so he also knows there isn't very much for him to still hold on to him saying, okay, once we do, you know, we reach out, you know, once we have, we can, his ball that this has already gone, was receiving and back in the step and back what do you see that happens? but so there's really no excuses in a way for them to send you i left that he needs to deliver. and this is partially, maybe the assumption is that this time it might be actually happening. okay. and in a month's time, a new administration in the united states, where does that president elect from fed gov and, you know, i think that's very smart field. that's basically the biggest change that we've seen happening when he comes to, you know, the force that has the biggest potential of changing the dynamics in these talks and on the cease fire. because what we see is the trump effect is such that seems
9:19 am
to be incentivizing in incentivizing both sides as well and come us to try and make you know, some progress and break through to the other side. how much, you know, it seems to be quite where you have what happens when, when trump that makes it into the white house, the trump, himself is already, you know, gave several threats of how all hell will break loose. i'm not sure there's anywhere worse for it. cause it to get but i'm not sure they want to the want to try that and, and it's, and you know, as well, he knows he needs to please a trump, the relationship is very bulky very. i see it cannot keep on, you know, pushing that away at the same time. we've also seen trump, people already engaged with whom is to date that and it's, and you all might, may have gone to cairo. he then later denied it. but we do know that trump's envoy to the hostages issue has or has been traveling in the region and was the us today in cairo. so trump and bite in both administrations, a very, very moment of consensus seemed to be pushing forward on this. and this is
9:20 am
partially where we seeing the optimization in the last days of the nice thing analysis as f a d w. so mentally established a showing that it was on us. thank you. you're welcome to as well. take a look now as the most doors making headlines and will stops in the french overseas territory of may aut, well, i'm sorry, it is of announced a night time cause you to prevent loosing. in the aftermath of cycling chito, at least 22 people are known to have died following the strongest storm to hit the islands for almost a century. but officials, fee of a death row will rise significantly as rescue and recovery efforts continue to lease on the south pacific island of oven to watch, i found to add to the site, at least $14.00 people have died and $200.00 have been injured after tuesday's massive quake the 7 point full magnitude event caused buildings to collapse in the capital port via rescue as an searching for survivors. us friends in australia has sent 8 and rescued teams to help recovery efforts. read. yeah. the man accused of
