recent wind and rain according to the emergencies ministry helped a lot in extinguishing the fires and neutralizing a localizing all the existing fires in the moscow region but fires in other parts of the country are still ravaging the nation in central russia and of the most affected regions like the region overdesigned for example there forest fires are still ravaging the countryside thousands have already lost their homes the government has been paying compensation and has promised to rebuild all of the homes that have been destroyed by the fire but now with the warm weather coming to an end many people are already worrying about whether they'll be able to actually welcome in the cold and the winter and your home or whether they'll be still facing building construction processes when it comes down to the russia winter which as everybody knows is no mean feat the of families of all those who lost loved ones in the fires were paid over

10:07 am
a big problem that the turks of the last generation haven't integrated would have developed further away we have fifteen to twenty year olds who have moved further away from german culture than old immigrants this is a big effect on their behavior. procol known as a small group and although many germans think multiculturalism isn't working many also think turks should be allowed religious and cultural freedom was. raised that now. all the way that ordinary were a. little when we went to some of these areas many turks themselves denied there were problems still going on as we're trying to live together and i understand there are some problems but it's not true that turks can't integrate. we all get along there are many turks russians germans and arabs here on t.v. in the media they talk about people shooting each other and fighting but that's not the case here. but not all where are we going to feel
10:08 am
it. as well as a cultural divide there's also the more serious problem of crime unemployment among young turks in germany is high zoltan boredom leading to delinquency crystal has seen it all passion betty sept and while it's that's what the young ones do in mice themselves drugs what turns don't drink as we know it but they do fight each other . and they don't just face off with fellow turks the new plan police from turkey will help their german counterparts patrol troublesome neighborhoods those behind it don't want segregation but rather a more sympathetic approach to policing turkish communities best information our government and of course the german police can handle the situation but there have been lots of recent reports about attacks and violence against police officers who try to enforce law in such problematic regions with
10:09 am
a high violence potential so we had to think about what we could do better. but the plan is getting a lot of criticism some saying it's clear evidence the police don't know how to deal with turkish community. and crystal is one of those who thinks it's discrimination against turks you have not really i don't like this plan the russian polish minorities don't have police it's not fair for the turkish to have them you have turkish police other people won't respond german police. this is the main turkish street in the old german city of cologne it's streets like this that these new police officers are intended for and it's on streets like this where people will decide whether this plan is an example of police initiative or a failure to engage with germany's immigrant population tom barton r.t. cologne germany. latin america needs to consolidate to be able to challenge the united states which treats the region as its backyard so says nicaraguan president

now as the russian built nuclear power plant was loaded with fuel in iran's city of cher on saturday the start up received mixed reaction from across the globe well israel called the idea of the station totally unacceptable the u.s. and the facility poses no proliferation risk well for more on the aftermath of the opening of the plant i'm joined by. a political analyst based here in moscow thanks for being with us now like i just said the u.s. and israel usually have similar policies when it comes to iran and yet their reactions on the bush era plan opening are quite different why is that the u.s. and israeli policies with regard to iran have been quite different for a while. israel does have zero tolerance with regard to anything nuclear and neuron this combinational words you clear and iran clearly game for for these really government the united states has had
10:13 am
a more nuanced approach towards your on its nuclear program with the united states has to balance. alliance or quasi allies with israel with relations with israel's neighbors and moreover since early in this i guess the u.s. administration has been convinced their. share more or less. presents the gravest threat with regard to you but not so much of course that's why i think the u.s. administration has been much more tolerant of. how might a nuclear powered iran changed the face of politics in the middle east while we have to bear in mind that you're on arab neighbors to say nothing with israel of course and even turkey have very little room to maneuver if you're on because you
10:14 am
clear nuclear arms nuclear powered iran is a bit different of course but given this limited room to maneuver i think your neighbors very cautious and. very much fear there the move towards. full run to become nuclear powered can be just a step on the way for you run to become armed that's why i think an arms race. is already intensifying in the middle east look at iran's arab neighbors the arab states of the persian gulf they've been they've been engaging landry's they've been procuring a mess of the mantle fighter jets missiles and so on so i think this drive we're on to become a nuclear power. straining relationship in the persian gulf as well as in the broader middle east what do you think the chances are that tehran will rejoin talks
10:15 am
over its nuclear program with the launch of this machine or plan or is it kind of going to say to them what we can do it by ourselves now i think that it is really the gamble of both washington and moscow that you will become more inclined to rejoin talks substantively on its nuclear enrichment program i think the gamble has been their. government will actually. think that it's enough for iran to become a nuclear power to actually to present it as a major feat in international politics to iran's the mess. do you runts international rivals let's say so the stakes are now where the iranian government decides that it's enough or whether it decides that it's just a successful step on the way towards getting and enrichment capacity sufficient to
10:16 am
breakthrough to a nuclear weapon but i think the hope in many of the influential seats involved in the dispute around the nuclear program is there the iranian government will stop exactly becoming uclear power and not try to achieve anything more that would resemble and you clear them out best. just briefly russia of course alongside with the u.n. is going to be monitoring this plant but there is there any chance that you ron could break off and say it's our country it's our plan we're going to run it from here well i think of course that that's a possibility but that is going to war huge cost for the iranian government you know and can break through. calling itself a nuclear armed state at some point and that again this going to cause an outreach
10:17 am
if not military action against iran so i think iran will be cautious to preserve the looks of the power plant as guarded its nuclear power plants being nothing to do with the richmond. program there the iranian government is also pursuing. all right for now political analyst me to give thanks very much for your time. we're going to take a look at some world news in brief for you this hour a hostage crisis in the philippines is now over the hijacked boss was stormed by police of the fifteen people who had been held captive by the lone gunman officials say at least six are dead the gunman was also killed security forces have decided to storm the boss after gunshots have been heard fired from within the hostage taker was a former police officer who was demanding to be reinstated following his sacking in two thousand and eight children were among the fifteen passengers who'd been on
