for this, i'm show business. i'll see you then me the, the, the, the, the, this, our top headlines here on our team and a dutch court rules. it is acceptable for border police to stop and check people entering the country on the basis of that skin color. we put the issue up for debate, codification of racism. i don't know the figures and also they are similar like in belgium. 6 out of prism are illegal immigrants politic offenses. hundreds of health workers in france are facing prosecution, nova ramp and fraud in the countries coven help pass system with tens of thousands

of fake documents. uncovered the u. k. face is a new energy crunch as hundreds of petrol stations run out of fuel, of correspond that experience the shortages 1st hand. sorry out to be sorry to be sorry out to view every single pound and this station says exactly the same. and here, when we continue our special coverage on the eve of germany's federal election, the nation proposed to choose the next chancellor office. 16 years of angela merkle at the helm. ah, it is just after noon on saturday. this is our national life for moscow. we begin this program now with some news just in from somalia. there's been a suicide bombing outside the presidential palace in mogadishu. a bomb laden

vehicle blew up at a checkpoint, a police have confirmed there are casualties so far. the numbers are unclear. but according to eye witnesses, the blast damaged several nearby buildings. and this comes less than 24 hours after a suicide bombing at the military headquarters in the somali capital i here. when are we keeping track of developments? we will keep you updated for now, a dutch court has ruled it is legal for border guards to stop and check people entering the country on the basis of the f. necessity of the case was lowered by a jury. and man who said border police stopped him. on racial grounds. now of course, the netherlands is shining, enzo the meaning that people entering from other member states are not generally required to show their passports. misty international has condemned the latest rolling as unconstitutional. and the lawyer involved in the case, it says it opens the door to what he calls, legalized discrimination in this issues. and after speaking still be part of risk

profile selection profiles. we think that least the door opens wide discrimination and racism basically every time that i'm coming home to my country and that and i'm being stopped and the city can play a role. this is basically what the court is saying. and to us is really shocked. i guess the belgian politician, frank craven and the racial equality campaign lead jasper a weight in on what is being called a very divisive issue. hey, codification of racism and to touch law, how can one of the nationality by ethnicity in the modern world kind of habit, mississippi is a category for mocking our suspicion amongst individuals. i don't know the figures in the rentals, but i suppose they are similar like in belgium, 6 of them really are illegal immigrants for me to offenses. so it's normal,

the police and customers, the more who know why, if they want to control someone, maybe the blacks, the counselors, you think his anger, who his own color, brothers are the reason for his problems. i wonder about the general trend across europe, which is moving to was continuing leaches, legitimize ation hall, common racy spirit slides through ration racial profiling through through criminal justice systems. holidays indicate say, continued right, waiting drift across the world. these groups are there, there are parties more, ethnically less wing, and they have their own political parties. so the 1st thing they knew separately, profile themselves into their own was eating some all around the world traveling that will have based on their mind as well as their residents multicultural communities. so we'll have an impact on the international reputation of the dutch

who are previously saw as progressive in europe in terms that increasing as we see the trend to move right with your spread even to those most progressive european nations. really, you should look at your own community, you should look at the wrong group if they are overrated. they are so much in trying to see that it's quite normal, that they, that the police and customs are no longer than the security major. a lot of them, when politicians bang, the drum about racism, immigration, and the need to be it's often the need to be able to justify the racial profiling and discrimination. i guess minorities uses, the government itself is seeking to distract the population from more serious matters. like belgium and holland, our food we are, we are the smallest and the most countries in the world. if you do like this,

and it may be the best to make and finally, an end to political correctness and then saying, go, don't come to help them. because before, if you stop, stop giving them money when they come in and give them the alls. and given the school's getting and everything. yeah. and it was, i've loved before the french authorities say they've uncovered widespread fraud involving coven health passes. and according to the national health insurance fund up to 270 medics are suspected of involvement of that number 138 have been prosecuted. and 36000 health pastors have been canceled. people found to have given out the faith certificates of facing 5 years in prison, and up to a 150000 euro fine. and anyone found carrying such a document could land themselves 3 years in prison and a find a 45 grand. we spoke with a brute. oh my god, a been a doctor in paris. he says the intense pressure on medics may have prompted some to

bend the law if it is more advocate. obviously, with the introduction of health passes mandatory vaccination of nursing stuff and the constellation of financial compensation for corner bars. there is a risk that a certain number of people who do not want to be the law tried to circumvented. unfortunately, just like in the general population, their own st. louis, medical workers who are trying to earn money by fortune documents. firstly, it's a criminal prosecution for the documents face, imprisonment of up to 5 years, and find several 1000 euros after the use of the state documents. and of course, even medical workers in public hospitals will be relieved that position, if found guilty. it is just the latest in a series of setbacks for the french health service. in the past month, thousands of stuff had been suspended without pay for failing to get vaccinated against coded a bruno mac are been again things to government policies and just to harsh protect the beak. unfortunately, public hospitals are now in

a difficult situation. this is primarily due to restrictive policies, as well as financial management, and it has been happening for about 20 years. accounting policy and the financial balance sheets have become the guiding principles in decision making. people frequently to the detriment of the medical interest in society, which needs medical care and hospitals. accordingly, the number of beds and stuff has decreased because medical care stuff is the main expense in the hospital. and if you want to save money, you have to reduce the number of stuff the same time the population in france is aging the need, her medical services is growing. the number of destitute migrant persons of no fixed, the boat is growing. therefore, public hospitals are experiencing an increased load and their resources remain the same, or even less. coven rolls are also being systematically breached in australia. thousands of people have been defying a stay at home order to attend anti vaccine demonstrations in melbourne. and police expect the protests to intensify over the weekend of warning. you may find some of

the following pictures disturbing. the me the me the

the reviews can you go home tonight? the very person, the, the bus here at moscow at a time of record natural gas prices. the u. k. now has yet another energy crisis on its hands. a lack of truck drivers as a petrol stations up and down the country, running on empty authorities shot here it was just, you know,

reports the u. k is running on empty right now. as hundreds of stations in britain like this one have run out of fuel just to give you an idea this time green, sorry, out of you, sorry, out of these, sorry, out reviews on every single pump. and this station says exactly the same. why? when so, because the country is run out of fuel, but because there's not enough laurie drivers to get the fuel to these pachel station. but as usual, the government's messages keep calm and drive on the advice would be to carry on his normal. and that is what b p 's saying as well. well, he may say carry on as normal, but empty tank just isn't normal. phoebe admit it's running dry and hundreds of stations and now affected by even seeing cars back top outside, open cultural stations, up or down the country to get the last petrol of people. go back into the panic buying mentality that we saw at the beginning of the pan demik. i just saw the mchugh in the morning as well now as well. and i was just told that there was no

deal now. so i'm literally on to the trip tomorrow, so i don't have any diesel in my car. again, i am going to do that and i don't know what i will work for 3 or 4 days or something either the few of the 2 weeks, but the price is i think you'd be fixed on it because i have to work with a call. we don't work with all these icon go to walk. if i go, i will go see a lot of times, well before the pandemic, anything that went wrong in the u. k. everyone said brick set and coupled with cove . it, it's chaos. the survey shortage of laurie drivers in the u. k. is following an exodus of truckers from countries who went back during the pandemic and stayed at least 100000, all of whom drove trucks that supply the u. k. with essentially like food and petrol. and crucially, they haven't been replaced. the government is came though to say this is more to do with the pandemic than breaks it be. the rules may have to change to find the

quickest. we have ample fuel stops in this country, but light countries around the world, we are suffering from a temporary covey related shortage of drive as needed to move supplies around the country, while looking at temporary measures to avoid any immediate problems. but any measures we introduce will be very strictly time limited. i'm sorry, things are in such a state will be all me may have to be drafted in to deal with this contest. but any one step won't be a quick fix and the shortages in the supply chain could see more than empty patrick as the country as left fuming to edward starting all t london. you are watching off, you need to national good to have you with us for this saturday program on with just a day to go before germany. it's federal election. we look at some of the obstacles facing the top candidates to replace the angle merkel as chancellor. that story admiral intimate? me?

ah, ah ah, ah, ah, ah ah, ah, ah, ah. the so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy plantation

let it be an arms race is often very dramatic. developments only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, a very critical time. time to sit down and talk the it is quite a part there in moscow, and it just over 24 hours from now. germany is going to the polls to on. so one very big question, who will replace chunk angle merkel? after 16 years at the helm, ah ah, on friday kind of it's made the last bit persuade the voters with riley's up and down europe's largest nation. and the outgoing chancellor has endorsed her own

parties, candidate and lush. it for the race is still wide open and would be chancellors from the social democratic party, or the greens and the right wing a fc have certainly been mobilizing death, supporters and easy. meanwhile, it's, i mean you politicians have reverted to the familiar russia blaming, narrative, reclaiming russian hackers targeted germany days before the election attempting to quote interfere in the democratic process. saskia taylor takes a closer look at the allegations. germany has got a lot on its mind. sergeant gas price says a looming micro crisis, a battered economy climate change flash floods, and who to trust office. 60 years of only knowing anglo marco. but apparently there's a non problem bunny was a mention. no, no, that's a much bigger threat outta me for you getting from the gym. government has reliable information on the basis of which goes try to activities can be attributed to cyber

actors at the russian state. and specifically russia, t r u military intelligence service. this is a danger to the security of the federal republic of germany and for the process of democratic decision making and severe strain and bilateral relations. even in these uncertain times it seems you can always count on the reliability of russian because i'll be elected for my tv stars and broken up unions apparently now they've set their sights on bringing down gentlemen. democracy now historically be russian. madeline cod hasn't been a huge success when it comes to finding well, sufficient evidence to some of what the moolah, all those in germany, who in the last election was, oh, disappointed to find out. but so far, we haven't been able to track down any specific russian activity, but they did find a whole bunch of stuff from all right. groups in the us, maybe the same groups at the top, marco's phone. oh no, that was the white house. so despite a pool track record of pinning the blame on moscow,

given how tight and sensitive these upcoming elections are, it looks like the heck a card was just to irresistible for berlin to not play safe measure. it's been combined with another headline grabbing favorite. this information from russia, obviously, there's clearly a huge demand for what russia is selling here among germans. and that by think across the west is deeply concerning. it's clear why this content is coming from. this isn't like a convert information oper where there is some partisan side that russia has spun up. they are somehow out performing most, if not all of the traditional media outlets. yes, also the channel auto joint isn't big trouble for writing articles. people actually want to read. it turns out the beating competition. unexplored, real issues that concern real voters is very sinister. and an affair is bid to sway the vote. all kissy it sex. lou funny. how toma media and petitions are constantly

talking about a t interfere it's a german elections. the problem is that they cannot explain how we do that need to approve their cleaned by quoting german special services. we'll say that way, it's a feeling by doing live streams on youtube from and to go on a protein. and these are just live streams and real time events, probably the funniest, glean, was from big human, ensuring they say that we are interfering by mocking the claims between interfering accusations of imagining have the story as all the time. it's only not troll, i'll troll and troubles brewing. it's always good to have a good man ready to take the hit. and the credit in such a tried and tested one such a farm favorite. now, it would be wrong to break with tradition, wouldn't it? le meddling claims aside,

there are plenty of positive. it's in germany's relationship with russia. not least, of course, the strong rapport between aguilar marquilla, russian president vladimir putin, they being through and all fall together over the past decade and a half. and so here at our tea, we've put together some of the highlights, the condo. it's known that the russian president likes to drink german beer and sometimes there's a possibility that we can make exchange. i have also gotten very good smoke to fish .

they said everything to each other's face, both had an open interaction, neglect in the common rules of diplomacy. in other words, at times they were turning up the heat. threatened to talk with each other than about each other. you really appreciate it very much. he's a very skilled politician, voice rates. good, really nice. yours. and i still dream of travelling through russia on the trans siberian railway.

are just remote and here on the program, let's explain how the election will work. a job and voters don't directly choose the chancellor. they elect menus at the button to start who will later pick a chancellor to lead a coalition government each vote who receives to ballad papers. the 1st is for a candidate in their electoral district, there are $299.00 constituencies all across the country. and the 2nd ballot is for a political party and there are $47.00 of them currently running for seats. but only parties with more than 5 percent of the vote nationwide are allowed access into the been to stock. one of the contenders in this election is the left party or dealing. it has a strong environmental agenda including an end without a coal mining party wants to reduce migrant deportations. unwelcome in more refugees on foreign policy. delinkum, once nato, to be dissolved into establish better relations with russia and china, or europe corresponding peter all of and i'll take it takes a bit of

a closer look at some of the favorites on some of the outsiders in this election. with no clear air or power into angular merkel when it comes to taking over in the chancellor's office, just behind me, the only real guarantees we have heading into this election when it comes to who will be the next leader of germany, is that it won't be the woman who's headed up the country's government for the best part of the last 16 years, realistically, the next chancellor of germany will be one of the 3 people. each of them, lo, comes with their own issues. the outsider for the top job is green party candidate annalee in a bad book. back in the summer, her policy will polling at the heavy height of 22 percent. right now they've been paid back to closer to the mid teens. while there's been no major campaign mistakes, a lot of it's been put down to a general feeling of a lack of experience when it comes to senior political jobs and some questions over

the figures that miss their book is used when it comes to putting forward the green parties environmental policies by the year 2100, the sea level will rise by 7 meters. the sea level will continue to rise for centuries. it could reach around $30.00 to $60.00 centimeters by 2100 even if greenhouse gas emissions sharply reduced. and global warming is limited to well below 2 degrees celsius. then she managed to find a cell for the very german political scandal involving her copying a number of paragraphs into her new book without proper attribution. i take the criticism seriously, looking back, it would certainly have been better if i had worked with a list of references, statements coming out of the green comp and the last week suggest the realization that they know they're probably not going to win this election unless of course, there's been a cataclysmic failure of polling. however, the greens offset to play a big role and whatever coalition in the ruling germany next. the man

from anglo merkel of christian democratic union party, arm, and lush. it has, it's fair to say not had a great election campaign. the leader of the state of north run west farley upset many well being caught on camera laughing and joking around behind the german president. as frank volta shine my express condolences to the families of those who had died in this summer's fatal flooding, which struck hard at luscious state. then there was the cringe worthy interview with child journalists. after the 12 year olds eviscerated the would be chancellor over his climate inaction far right elements in his party and even lift the luscious function for a cigarette. every now and again, the cd humans response was to slam what he called. clearly, koch children, for the interview technique under merkel, has tried to give him her blessing, including during the chancellor's final speech to the mon, the stock that didn't go so well. i mean,

the, the, the outgoing chancellor has stood by her mom despite him leading the center right party toward some of their lowest polling figures. in postwar germany that brings us onto the pollsters favorite to be the next head of the german government. all off the shelf of the social democrats, shoulds, his tactics of things to take his set back from the old account, the talking one another, to present himself as a full bath. and despite policy policies, almost certainly meaning new taxes, the german people at the final televised debate, shoulders with a now the clear when i finish those poll theme more than willing to overlook more than one skeleton in the closet of mister shoulds is present. never mind his past. earlier this month,

his fine on ministry as well as the justice ministry was rated by prosecutors, made accusations that a financial watchdog intended the couch money laundering was well not doing its job less than a week before voters. tough ballot. members of the bonus tag were questioning mr. show as role when it comes to find none. she'll miss doings after the g. 20 come x and y, cause we have the next week for the 1st time in the history of the state of germany . i don't have an investigation, you are the public prosecutors off against the federal ministry that look through the runners and writers barring a major upset. it will be one of those 3 who's the next chancellor of germany to massively over simplify. if i may, if germany were a restaurant, the recipes are going to stay almost the same. they are going to get a new head shift. so, and it's going to be someone who doesn't have the same clout in the kitchen and certainly doesn't have the same international recognition piece for all of our our

tea for lynn. we spoke with kyra, can i fill the form of foreign minister of austria? she thinks some key issues are being ignored in the election run off in the german elections. i missed the real imports, the really important topics we. nobody speaks about international relations. nobody discuss your opinion. nobody discuss this, the future of the euro. nobody speaks about politics and so it's rather provincial as to the lecture agenda. what i observed is, and i think this is also the ceiling of many germans. there's no interest in a car, it's not to be as much more interest in somebody who administrate this. we have to miss macro this, all the sub popularity with not only the germans, but also with the french. a lot of people have great criticising her migration politics. i was one among those voices,

but i think what will be important more in the long run is tell you in an actual decision on germany moving out the nuclear and doing this look with energy transition. this is currently the real topic. rising out, your price is this very uncertain, some fission in energy supply here. it's really too early to say whether germany will be able to remain and in the country why renewables. why as grid that still has to be renovated logic sense. and i think this is the real question. well, we are following the german election day by day on play by play in 24 hours people accosting their votes. we'll let you know who will be the success at the angle of last 16 years at the helm. this is our national law for moscow. thanks for joining us. we're back to the

ah, the ah . join me every thursday on the alex simon show. and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politic sport business. i'm show business. i'll see you then me you know.
