muslims. american food and beverage giant pepsi co is facing a backlash after suing for small time potato suppliers in india and with the local government no value to support the farmers it seems the multinational might face a battle the case marks a low point in a relationship or dates back to the late one nine hundred eighty s. when the first pepsi co potato plant in india was opened a partnership the company has been keen to advertise. pepsi co feels proud to partner with farmers all across india through various agree cultural initiatives as they shared their experience of working alongside pepsi co. pepsico itself claims the four farmers grew a variety of potato which the company has exclusive rights over for their biggest selling crisper and lays its potatoes were grown with the company's knowledge or
9:09 am
permission and was reportedly seeking damages of around six hundred thousand dollars the company however no see it's willing to drop the claim but there are conditions to the offer the u.s. corporation has suggested the farmers become part of a collaborative potato farming program that would mean they buy seeds and then sell the potatoes back at a pre i agreed price now if they don't agree the farmers would have to grow other potato varieties but the farmers say pepsico is violating their freedoms and fabricating laws. i don't know why pepsi co claims that it's in the right according to indian law nowhere in india or in the world for that matter do you find a law that prohibits farmers from growing potatoes where did pepsico get this law from sicko has violated our basic freedoms with this lawsuit they see that we have broken their patent rights how can they dictate what we can or cannot grow and let every year we buy seeds from within the farming community we never buy them from
9:10 am
any specific company and have no agreement with any company came and told us they wanted to do business with those they promised us a higher price and then filmed our farm they came as traders and were inquiring about the varieties we grow i told them we weren't sure of the variety but it's just white collar potatoes it's only when we receive the court notice that we realize who those people really were. the story isn't going anywhere there's an increasing call across the globe for people to boycott pepsi co products and activists from the alliance for sustainable and holistic agriculture told us that farmers are becoming aware of their rights by companies will be able to indiscriminately bring cases like this forward in the future. the farmers now clearly know that the indian legislation is our farmers are low too so exchange. saves seed from
9:11 am
a crop that is being good or from appropriate tree seed but just let me company and they are even allowed to sell sets let's see if the seed in this case provided they don't package it live billet and sell it doesn't but i did see it and these families were certainly not doing this should have the freedom to choose what they want to goo as the only side. euro skeptic and right wing parties are on course for significant gains in next month's european parliament election if the polls prove right but research suggests that only a third of europeans are even aware there is a ballot at all let alone how they plan to vote.
9:12 am
well our europe correspondent peter all of our now reports on the elections main issues from a german perspective. there's less than a month to go the citizens will elect the next european parliament and while there's expectations of a slight increase in turnout the views of pollsters have published that less than five percent of citizens so they knew when they're supposed to vote if you win during it's between may twenty third to the twenty sixth if you break down the euro per day theory into how those surveyed in member states of the question do you know when your country will vote in e.u. parliamentary elections well top of the class is multi where seventy three percent of those surveyed got it exactly right staying behind for extra lessons though it's the netherlands where a paltry twelve percent of those polled knew which dates they should be voting on
9:13 am
almost forty percent of germans nailed the e.u. pollsters question however a separate poll taken domestically by hugo found that almost half of people didn't know who any of the nine leading candidates for seats in the european parliament were which isn't great when you think about the important job they do in the impact they can potentially have on everybody in the use life i'm a one out of four people could pick month for adventure out of the lineup the c.s.u. man is only standing to be the european commission president one of the most powerful and important jobs in the whole of the european union in similar territory of twenty six percent we have nicolas of the free democrats doing a little better though we have alternative for germany's your miten on thirty five percent of those who were polled being able to pick him out of
9:14 am
a lineup and then on thirty nine percent we have the social democratic party's catarina we can only presume that ms bali the current justice minister against them . extra recognition due to the fact that she showed willingness to appear on different media outlets to put across their argument europe as external and internal enemies these include all who seek to weaken at across the u. s. of those polled said that they were definitely going to vote i asked people here on the streets of berlin what they made of the surveys and whether they intended to cast a ballot. will you take part in the european election. yes yes i have no clue when it comes to politics do you know when the parliamentary elections will be held but i don't know when exactly it's on the twenty sixth of may i think sometime in the spring or summer is even you know who this is
9:15 am
no one and the next one. is that they're not really in the spotlight for the most part these are counted it's no one's ever heard of three weeks ago until that european citizens will elect the next new poem and or at least they will fall if they remember which date they're supposed to turn up to vote on peace for all of us. all right we crack a lot more news this monday right after this. you know world of big partisan. and conspiracy it's time. to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smart we need to stop slamming the door on the back and shouting

a male relative to work mari and travel the two sisters savey use their father's phone to leave the country and escape to georgia their passports are suspended in saudi arabia and apparently there is no way for them there are no urging the tech giants to remove the app saying it violates human rights but riyadh had this to say the ministry strongly condemns the systematic campaign aimed at question in the purpose of up your services at the same time confirms this rejection of the attempts to politicize the systematic use of technical instruments which represent legitimate rights to the uses both apple and google have been criticized for hosting the. are now reviewing their stance however it's already been installed and smartphones the number is quite staggering more than a million times the un's human rights chief is questioning the use of such applications as well. technology can and should be all about progress but the
9:19 am
hugely invasive powers that be unleashed major incalculable damage if they are not sufficient checks in place to respect human rights well we've got reaction to this from catherine shutdown an analyst of middle eastern policies on geometer rana an expert on the political and social issues facing muslims. these up nigger shows are essentially meant nor abode the look you should not do from new members to normal do grow through the bow of the family members there seems to be a lot of understanding of europe where reproduction of removing is most if this were to grow up nigger should is being used. before some negative reasons that is an all too good or different a beard it forces women into turning into commodities and allowing their gods in so what might they be the father the son the cousin or the uncle or whoever else to have control of everything that happens to them not only the movement but they
9:20 am
actually they have rights to travel that right to be that right she see if they wish to see and their rights actually make their own choices for and wish to impose your grammar doesn't mutable foghat some sort of blog she gets all going go for mention heard from a blog from one of barbro from from one husband suburban very much regrettable to. the rest is more understanding because i am a muslim myself and i lived in yemen and i've experienced what it is to be treated differently because you are a woman to be treated like a second class citizen to be treated as a commodity and being told what to do and how to live and how to be and i can tell you that as a woman it is profoundly repressive and i reject it and i actually think that it's completely hateful on your part. to say that it's somehow rational to hold this kind of narrative in the twenty first century but if you are basically a question of distorting your smart question often draw them darkies or just the
9:21 am
lenses are going to turn this debate under any slimy to trying to get to movies to the religious or layman has nothing to do with anything and you trying to tell us that in saudi arabia women are free to do whatever they want is simply not true i'm trying to say that their god is that in the house we know that by so directly because they love their women so much as they have to protect them against themselves but it is ridiculous that moves are free but do you have a choice. member mic their choice in the stomach or that is an issue render make their choice in the best i'm going to use that doesn't become an issue it's not a question of applications it is a question obviously going to be a broad thinking would be rich we tried to evaluate everything the rich would try to see everything not i think we're the one she's not nicking and diving is that in islam bit is generally. there is some sort of advisory that the man should be rid of him remember a member of the that is just for the sake of production it has absolutely nothing to do with islam and people need to stop making it about every just issue when he
9:22 am
has nothing to do with anything it is a human rights issue it has everything to do with the way they conduct his affair with his country against women. love him or putin send mutual or jewel citizenship for both russians and ukrainians would be a win win situation. but i think it was a few minutes ago we're going to craniums in russian they are brothers moreover i believe that this is one nation with the cultural linguistic and historical feat use but it is in fact one nation if we have joint citizenship russians and ukrainians will benefit. all right for more on this story as cross lived a double of quarter relations between moscow and kiev not so very long ago where really out rock bottom so how did this talk of jewel citizenship actually come about it while union last week saw the beginning of basically a bunch of back and forth statements between russian president vladimir putin and
9:23 am
the newly elected ukrainian president vladimir selenski now putin said that he would fast track applications for russian passports made by residents of the people's republic of lugansk and then yet now these are ukrainian territories that declared independence from the western backed he of government back after the my don uprising of two thousand and fourteen and he later said that perhaps he would extend this possibility to all ukrainian citizens in general now selenski responded to putin's statements saying that the kremlin shouldn't try to seduce the ukrainian people and in a tight tit for tat response he said that the ukrainian government would actually extend a fast track for ukrainian passports to russian citizens. i would not recommend the russian authorities waste their time trying to seduce ukrainian citizens with russian passports we will provide ukrainian citizenship to people of all nations who suffer from authoritarian and corrupt regimes first and foremost to russians
9:24 am
who are suffering to the more than most put today putin statements made it clear that the russian government and the kremlin see see this a different way they're putting a statement that the people in ukraine and people in russia are one people actually and share many cultural and historical similarities and they said that. they would really benefit from having mutual citizenship so shortly after the ukrainian elections and the question of nationhood is already creating serious political developments connected to the lenski new administration breaking down that story for us this hour double quarter. all right getting your news on the go this monday could not be easier with the. if you prefer your news on a bigger screen and join me again and thirty on the air with all the latest updates .
9:25 am
what politicians do something. they put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. or some want to. have to go right to be precise this is what the forty three in the morning can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters about how. i should. make this manufacture consent to step into public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the financial merry go round the sun be the one percent. we can all middle of the room six. million more you need.

9:27 am
a lot watching your children grow up in miss you and wave and say bye daddy as you're walking out of this it doesn't get easy. change of leadership in ukraine has spurred hope for a dialogue between moscow and kiev can this crisis be stopped from becoming a frozen conflict that too late to talk about this here today with. the secretary general of. the new multi-polar world is fraught with danger and potential conflict trios looks even in a stable europe will the diverging interests of twenty first century trigger wars in regions where it never seems possible before what makes international
9:28 am
organizations like the influence existing conflicts and just deal with the results . in the future. general of it's really great to have on our show it's the first time you're on my show so then very happy to have you as a guest and have lots to discuss let's start of with ukraine i know that you've been saying they are going to say she could serve as an honest broker between russia and ukraine but the two countries have been at odds for like five years now why do you think that your organization has enough clout to actually push moscow and. to a great three. look we've been pretty good in managing the crisis in iran during the over the last five years i think he managed to prevent further escalation of the conflict and banks especially monitoring mission to ukraine i think he also made a major difference for the people on the ground in terms of fossil.
9:29 am
of silence for human turn ever. again. make sure that medians of people have walter electricity electricity gas and cetera but obviously. monitoring of the conflict is not enough to move closer to resolving the conflict and there i think you always see haass some tools. for instance. that meets on a body clean basis in minsk. of all five signatories often means. around the table and i think this is a platform. much more effective pretty. neat political impulse needs to come. from. but ideally to normandy for. the has been. giving political guidance
9:30 am
to process and so basically what i'm eating for is an alter political impulse ideally stemming from the moment so let's talk about normal for in a bit but before that i want to talk about the possible u.n. peacekeepers arriving in ukraine. before the elections and ukraine then president poroshenko said that this could be solved an agreement could be reached on us peace peacekeepers arriving to ukraine as early as may we're doing it this year do you think that idea is still feasible then i always. defend the position if. peace operation the un peace operation even suggests the joint un always. if these allows us to get out of the political impasse of implementing demeans agreements go for it go for it. what we have seen is the proposals for such an operation the for so massively.
