7:11 am
the mayor has promised to do more for the area so is anything changing. you can measure the number of crimes that are reported the number of guns that you receive but you can't measure the number of crimes that have probably prevented what are you doing. in a bid to tackle gun violence sacramento is paying gang members to be well behaved the program to advance peace is set to run for three years and is funded by private
7:12 am
donations the idea behind it is that only a handful of criminals are responsible for almost all gang related crime and it's not just about the money the founders of the program say that those who commit gun crimes are victims of the violence themselves we all suffer mental residence what they think. should be pain people not the kill people it just seems silly to me i mean i was taught the behave myself to be a good citizen to honor and respect people. i did and not shooting people and here the city council wants to pay someone to behave themselves doesn't make sense to me criminals are going to take the money. and still commit crimes. that softer criminals ok about i can see because it helps feed their families and they don't have to do the drugs anymore but it depends upon how hard to promote all . is. investigative journalist john rappaport thinks there is no place for such an

previously he had been critical about the afghan military campaign. we will also expand authority for american armed forces to target the terrorist and criminal networks afghanistan is a total and complete disaster let's get with it get out of afghanistan president since he has no clue of what and policy of the guns that push it in afghanistan noddy is interested in what he's going to cause to his own troops as well as to civilians in afghanistan he has decided to send in at least four thousand more troops and also increase in the attic backs which is causing civilian casualties which is going to isolate america from the i would edge of the counties i believe that only the taliban have been opposed to the usa and to president trump now the average of the un is going to hate america for what it is doing to the common people and most of the attacks which have recently been cut it out it is the very
7:16 am
men and children that have been taught to get it and not even the men and not a single taliban has been hurt in those so it is what intelligence would betting strategy harkless backed off a few by the fall. we'll be back in a couple of minutes and then go away. so it's seems wrong. but all it will just don't. let me. get to shape out these days comes etiquette and in detroit equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.

7:18 am
citizens citizenship revoked by the country's president. of the early on sundays really attempted to cross the border by train but was forced out by gods but later he managed to get to past a checkpoint with the help of hundreds of locals ukrainian police say he will now face criminal charges for illegally crossing the border something he denies doing the former official once an aide to ukraine's president but then fell out with him our correspondent kate paltrow chips at how the two western darlings who were once the closest of allies became rivals. remember this guy. the former georgian president. turns ukrainian governor has gone from states month
7:19 am
to state less in less than two months so what had gone wrong. in twenty fourteen he flew to ukraine amid the my down uprising gave up his georgian passports to become ukrainian and set about reforming the city of odessa but it didn't go as planned. ironically saakashvili is opponent is ukrainian president and former friend petro poroshenko another darling of the west who brought saakashvili in to help drive the kind of change that had once made him such a hit in georgia but the two have clearly fallen out of love.
7:20 am
apparently saakashvili lied while applying for citizenship and boris shankar has since renounced that citizenship of his university powell while the latter was visiting his own co in new york. biased many were backed by washington both raised to power on the wings of popular uprisings and both are now all but failing saakashvili seems a spent force he's without a state wanted by his native georgia and not wanted by his adopted ukraine maybe it's time for another period of u.s. exile while poroshenko his own popularity is in tatters the latest poll says only two percent of ukrainians still support him the revolutionary idealism that brought him to power amid the flames on the my done has descended into disillusionment. perhaps the chosen leaders of popular uprisings are always vulnerable to having the
7:21 am
various support that put them in power taken away or maybe it's just something about ukraine either way the two one time friends and western allies are playing out a very public spat during personal decline political commentator martin summers told us in his dealings with ukraine underscore the political disarray gripping here. is really of self is wanted for corruption in georgia was as we know of course the danger of him coming back like this is that the ukrainian authorities who fall that were the most extraordinary back to georgia to face trial there so he's saying a bit of a risk by trying to come back into the country it's very odd that this play such a big role in ukrainian politics in season ukrainian and being given the governorship of the disagreed which is very keen region especially because it's cold large russian population so he was parachuted in really boy boy the western powers i think what's going on is just shows how in disarray ukrainian politics or
7:22 am
. you know the revolution is turning incredibly sour nobody really knows what to do next the colonies in free fall they're not going to be joining the european union it's on soon they're talking about joining nato but all that will do is present potentially spot for the war. with less than two weeks until the german elections anglo-american christian democrats are way out in front in the polls there are expectations about a possible coalition with the s.p.d. among the mix of likely this is the green party though one's quite a popular party some now say the greens have lost their connection with their voter base. what is the craziest thing you have ever done. i'm not going to tell you that here it is an equal it's one i'm sure i'd rather you know the rocky road well if you're from gearing economic who wants to be in a coalition with the c.d.u. vast is crazy crazy now. back in the eighty's the greens were founded by
7:23 am
environmentalists and peace activists entering the bundestag in one thousand eight hundred three a few years later that popularity enabled them to enter a coalition with the ruling social democrats their party leader was even given the job of foreign minister we spoke to the parties i would pay only under a new report about the claims the greens have lost their way. we would like to pass an immigration law regulating those who can enter the labor market we want the fundamental rights that exist in this country throughout our history to apply to migrants we also have to take measures against attacks and refugee camps so those who've seen fear in death can finally find protection. together we will do everything to share their germany provides help where help is needed. the federal government was silent for too long fearing the refugees and failed to stand up to present and fend e.u. borders the issue of arms exports needs to be looked at as well as economic support in the customs union. i think the four point two million euro zone prick session

funding which turkey receives under this membership process should be halted for turkey remains a partner half of the turkish population voted against the constitution proposed by early one and for those people it might make sense to keep the prospect of turkey joining the e.u. even though turkey present is cut off from that i am in favor of freezing precession funding nevertheless such a step should be thorough he considered fifty percent of people in turkey we live in the us. is extremely problematic to live with a president in such a powerful position we have no idea what his next step would be this unpredictability is alarming we must stand together as europeans the e.u. is the on the problem we have with trump is he is in predictability. earlier we spoke to former german intelligence officer believes that the greens are no longer you nick. there more locally in all. mentor you go to.
