the way refugees become pools in a cruise to your political conflict, missouri, i'm afraid i'll never see him again. when, oh, you lost under the stops december 18th, on dw, the w news line from the german diplomat as visit serious adults for the countries new leaders. they meet with a month al serra, the had to be, is the miscreants. it broke down the ass on raising the talks on the political transition process. also on the program, russia detains and was back in national suspect as of killing a top general in moscow. investigators say he was recruited by ukraine. the

i'm so go ahead, welcome to the program. jem and diplomats visiting syria have held tools for the head of the rebel group that broke down the government of bash on a sat. the foreign ministry in the lens as a delegation, spoke with the model, should rock, who leads the islamist group higher tax rate, as shop o h t s. these are files pictures of the i c s. leda who's also representatives of other european countries. i'm to see you at the diplomats also have visited the german embassy, which has been closed since 2012 asked up and difficult correspond to julia side of debbie what jeremy was hoping to achieve. so this was the 1st time that german diplomats were back in damascus since 2012 since of the civil war 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. uh wow. the group is going to act and, and, and, and move forward in this transition. right, on the removal of side has spot 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. a, a see, 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 spun. 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, 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 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. this is a far cry from is words treating more injuries in the syrian civil war. but in 2015, a lot of the off 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 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 doctors, one of the around 6000 syrian doctors in germany who work in hospitals or doctors offices, syrians make up the largest group before and doctors in the country. and now the sudden fall of the a side regime as raise the question, what would happen to germany's health care system if these doctors begin returning to syria. now i'm in a conk annoies on functions that we have the same problem in almost all the 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 ready to, to few younger ones. are coming in, which is why we are dependent on doctors from e, you know, new countries i'm gives, oh that's hospital supervisor says he has become an essential member of her team.

she says is experienced back in war torn syria sets them apart. but if he returned, she would lose a valuable colleague and a friend. i don't think our house, the son could. so 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. i josh was overjoyed when you heard about the end of assad's regime. but he says it's too early to tell whether he'll go back. i can tell you i or i can assure you there's not me like many other of 2 young 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 some big. so if our home could provide that and then 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 that a, i give them to 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 directed towards the syrians given the situation now after the fall of us side in syria. but 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 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 off 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 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 country, isn't that they are allowed to stay here because they're such an important part of a german business. okay, julie, thank you for that. do the political correspondent, julia, sound dummy us to rush away to investigate, to say, a suspect has been detained in connection with the mother of general eagle kitty love in moscow. and was back nashville has been arrested on suspicion of carrying out of the attack. under instruction from ukraine. cave had accused the general catalogue of being involved in the use of chemical weapons. during bush's war efforts. dashed kim footage shows the moment an explosive device killed. general igor, kira last and his assistant outside of moscow apartment, building investigators are searching for clues to piece together the circumstances of what appears to be the targeted killing of one of russia's top military leaders by ukraine. the
