doctor, because the tax laws, you know, definitely do benefit the wealthy people in our society. so that makes sense for them to throw it out right off rather than give it to somebody who could use it. and then that person is not going to buy it. the week stop stories here on our t international. the rushing city of moans. the last of 6 people killed in a university shooting correspondent traces the steps of the gunman that li rampage . this is the exact road the perpetrator took while he was carrying out his vicious light of problems that political dialogue within nato is non existent. as the us, i knew k struggle become french try and go over a new security packs with australia and voting on the way in germany for what promises to be a close port raced with

a point to stop will continue on special coverage here on our t and looking at the main content to replace the long serving chancellor angle of marco. ah, so all week long, we've had a string of top stories for you here. we're not the international. let's highlight some of them in today's edition of the weekly. so the russian city of palm was in morning this week after a university gun massacre. 6 people were killed on monday by a student to classmates, described as a silent and lonely teenager. a warning you may find the following: images, disturbing, and other 40 people were injured in that shooting, most of them students, and many of whom are still fighting for their lives. ortiz, a concert in rush coff. retrace the steps taken by the killer and other warning, you may find the images in his report. distressing those in the exact

road the perpetrator took while he was carrying out his vicious plan. and this is, by the way, the exec street, where he fired at a passing car as he was making his way towards the campus. ah, the gunman showed up at the university faculty building and this is where he was 1st film by terrified students. they were staring at him as he strode across the park with a hunting rifle, ammunition wrapped around his body. he loved the me . i didn't know this, but when i was leaving university, a group of people had already gathered that. it turns out that we had 15 minutes

earlier, we could have been in that situation. it was very scary. we usually can be a building next time we are in the 1st building and out that it was this little saved us today. ah, that's the building where are these horrific scenes unfolded just meters away from where we're standing now? people were jumping from a height of about 4 meters spalding heavily onto the ground. many of them have suffered serious injuries because of that hasty evacuation to my fee was among those who jumped. this is him on the video falling from the window. fortunately, he didn't suffer any injuries, unlike other students. movie gillian, we saw a guy walking across the square holding a gun, aiming a top building. he fired a shot and then disappeared from our line of sight. we realized we had to do something better with us and assist has been identified as an 18 year old freshman

at the university and a social media post he made. shortly before he embarked on the shootings, he talked about hatred for mankind in general, and that he'd been planning to commit a mass murder for several years. yeah, well, it looks like nobody's in there. this is the suspects department. this is where he lived with his mother and neighbors told us that after she was called in by the investigative committee, she then decided to move elsewhere away from the media. attention near the house, we met the suspect. former classmates remembered him as a silent and lonely teenager who didn't have a lot of friends. they also run into him the morning he went to shoot people all to quibble when he was quiet and shy, not very sociable and he always slower when he walked out of the game that day. he walked differently on that day. he worked with confidence quickly with broad staff

in a course. the main question in everyone's mind now is how 18 year old got hold of a firearm. while he bought it legally, he passed the medical test he was added by. it's a high interest apparently, hadn't found anything odd about this quite young man. there was even footage taken in one of the gun stores on the outskirts of berg right here. where are the light shooter? purchased himself, ammo as he was getting ready for the mass. murder ah ah, we were welcome at the store. you want to get your, what your name was crystal clear about this tragedy is that it could have been much worse if it hadn't been for to hear with traffic police officers who just happened to be in the

vicinity. when the shooting started, both officers rushed to the campus with one of them and quickly running into the attacker who opened fire. that officer constantine calling in return fire, wounding the suspect. and then he administered 1st 8 or the gun mans and hospital in a serious condition. although he has revived and even regained conscious, i can say that about the city though. hark, as perm is still trying to come to terms with the nightmare that has just happened, and as you can see, people are still gathering at this make shift memorial to honor the memory of the deceased passing to train has their way old in the u. s. state of montana killing at least 3 people and injuring dozens more. the amtrak train was heading from seattle to chicago on saturday afternoon carrying 141 passengers and 16 crew members. 7 of the 10 cars derailed along a straight section of the track. the cause of the disaster so far unclear,

we understand an investigation is already getting underway. so it is a weekly here on the international or the us and u. k. a scrambling to mendo rift with france soft sidelining, their ally in a security packed with australia. president biden has now admitted it was wrong to strike the deal behind. frances back, that's all for the french defense chief said political dialogue with a nato has all but disappeared. let you to does it. as you knew, the attitude of the united states was the submarine program is a further investigation of the of asian that we have been making for months today. political dialogue is non existent within the atlantic lions correspondent. donal coulter reports now on the cracks, appearing within the western military alliance, and how the british prime minister is handling the pressure. what, what do you say? you have going on to say as usual protection,

a greater common purpose. all this seems to go out the window and there's a bit of money to be made. the recent controversy surrounding the u. s. u. k and australia as new security pack has left a new leaders scratching their heads about what even means to be in nato anymore. the reason for nato's existence is transatlantic security. this is what we want to remind the united states off. therefore, our partners decided on our initiative as well as on the initiative of germany to revise the strategic concept of the alliance. being allies does not mean being hostage to the interests of another country. at 1st, the spat seemed confined to only a few powers. france being upset with the suspension of its submarine contract with australia, which resulted from offices provisioning of nuclear sub technology to the country. and the entire strategic alliance is feeling the reverb. it is such a difficult issue where we see traditional alliances in some way torn apart are

certainly changed fundamentally. but the issue doesn't stop there. one that doesn't even feel like they've done anything wrong. it's 3 very like minded allies, standing shoulder to shoulder, creating a new partnership for the sharing of, of technology. it is not exclusive, i did not trying to, to shoulder anybody. i did not at the stereo towards china. you states feeling like they were left hung out to dry, the u. s. and u. k. making decisions without consulting their friends with nato's ongoing friendship. crisis airing it's member states dirty laundry. many are finding it hard to see a strong united future for the west over 7 decade long military alliance. nato was considered by france and months ago, year to go by president my whole as brain dead. a brain dead of lions, best strong words within nato. they want to revise the concepts, he's teaching concepts and bring it back actually to the north atlantic. because if

you follow america, nato will soon be in the pacific, cruising around china with us. this is not the way nature was conceived and it shouldn't be there. europeans should not be in that region of the world markets that repeatedly, that we should enlarge, our vision any desperately look to something to do. that's the reality. you know, we are in the, i mean maint what's in the scanner stuff is in iraq. to train the forces, that's the limits of the expansion. this is not the north atlantic anymore, is it? london and washington have both welcome the orca steel but tides between the 2 countries and not going smoothly these days. in fact, a turbine has played down the chances of a post breakfast trade deal with a u. k. and that's race further down. so over the so called special relationship as simon right, explains. remember the old joke. how can you tell

a politician is lying? because their lips move, well, joe biden, and bars johnson sold that problem when they met in washington. the last event is the western well dashed down for new york for a special meeting in washington, the kind of weird news conference where everyone pretends the special relationship is still a thing. even though we all know is not really the facade, it's been these they, they don't even really use the phrase and then the absence of anything else, they thought the bond over trying to keep down an amtrak. is that right? i did, you did. i did 1000000 miles, i'll stay the rest of that. the train back to wait on for that to many. the mission for the british minister was to spin the very obvious truth. the post brack that britain passed basically no job of getting a free trade deal with the us anytime. biden said no without actually saying we're going to talk about trade in today. and we're gonna have to work that true

work it through. indeed, some report suggests that britain is going to try and watch in the back door of a tray deal with what is it between the us, canada, mexico. anyway, every time someone brings up the idea of a free trade deal with britain, by and does that weird thing we bangle and about the new border, they will. how is a very keen to try and show how united they are ahead of the $26.00 climate summit in law is going to come november. you made a commitment on supporting the the world to adapt it to climate change, doubling the american commit when that very school. so like everything else is just the diplomatic show before in january suggested the u. s. o britain to get a grip on how it was planning the conference, essentially washington selling britain to plan its own policy. so the special relationship is in this kind of place now, where every now again, washington throws a burning britton's way. keep hoping. so boy finally got an invite to the white

house off the 2 years of school. they had the job, the bottom, the orchestra in the military alliance trade. yeah. because while trade deal the hard military deal to a penny with a lot most telling my was this one is one house off ending the news conference for it was so literally in the middle of a sentence before the boy himself fed on the plane over to the us on the shore biden, the little fish to fry and $900.00 is underway in the united states after the murder of 22 year old gabby potato in the state of wyoming. the prime suspect is her fiance and the mainstream media coverage and recent days has taken on a rather surprising racial twist. the some pundits suggesting the global interest and potatoes disappearance is partly because she's white. why not the same media

attention when people of color go missing? well, the answer actually has a name missing white woman syndrome isn't saying that gabby potato is not important . what it is saying is that there's an over representation in media when white women go missing. i told you this would happen, somebody was going to play the race card on the gabby petite story, and most likely it would be joy read. i don't feel it was appropriate of jewelry to inject race into the conversation about gabby potato. the parents grieving that their daughter, very insensitive to turn it into political discourse. a big question should be, how do we prevent these crimes from happening? gabby potato and avid travel blogger was on a road trip with her 23 year old fiance brian laundry. he returned from the trip in late august alone. later peter, his family reported her missing, and on september the 19th her body was found in wyoming. national park suspicions have focused on laundry,

who has disappeared since returning home to florida. authorities are asking the public for information about his whereabouts while with thousands reported missing every year in america, it's ref of victims to get this much attention. and critics point out almost 40 percent of those who go missing and america are non white. and one candidate for new york state governance says race should not be the issue here in about a missing market or whatever term it has nothing to do with the call. we created all one people god created of all and i had a love, a man can in my heart, real despicable and insight to the family. all that young lady, it has nothing to do a call at all would yes, highlight it in the news. it was, it was brought to the news, me and the news media ran with a like they should do and other store in one message. but racism is a big role in our culture to cheat. nice left is there by america. so they can

think it has been a fish for them so they can take control of america wants contra that embrace slavery. so now people going back to what happened years and years ago, india using that day to pay all the stuff into a a proficient. our power from the beginning is just a car that is being played. the race caught true. so demands of a few to elevate the wicked to a leadership position. so a balance on i'll being coughed in germany's election as a nation prepares for life off at merkel. we are back in just me i the

ah, me rather than dreamer shape. those in me i think we dare to ask me

ah, i'm going to be to join us today. a voting is now underway in germany for what? shaping up to be a knife edge contest. there's one big question on voters minds who will replace angela michael. after 16 years. the unlike previous elections, voters are going through the polls with no clear idea as to who might emerge as chancellor at the outgoing angle. michael, his endorse her own party candidate, ottoman lashes. although posters have named the social democratic leader, ola sholtes as the favorite. there's also a strong challenge from a part he's seen as a coalition power brokers out of the greens. now, one of the issues looming over the election is that the panoramic and saturdays

riley's in berlin against vaccines and red lenses. restrictions were the latest reminder of how divided people are. anglo muscles taken a consistently tough line on curbs and lockdown, sparkling frequently unrest over the past year and a half chantel angle americas time and power has had its highs and lows. as a correspondent, peter oliver. now reports after almost 16 years in charge, the time has come for angle, a miracle to step down as german chancellor, drawing the curtain on a political korea of over 3 decades. coming to office in 2005. she's the 3rd longest serving german chancellor of all time. only her mentor helmet co held a position longer in postwar, germany, anglo myrtle health achieved something that most politicians haven't at their time of leaving office. she has remained popular with a large chunk of the voters. no small achievement. when you look at the challenges she's had to face me,

germany weathered the financial storm that began with the collapse of layman brothers back in 2008 better than most countries. a 480000000000 euro bailout for the banks and managing to keep unemployment figures from spiking to high soaring de la medical reelected in 2009 then came the collapse of grease and the fee is it could never pay you any of it. and push the single currency close to the brink and a tidal wave of criticism crushing down on merkel and head governments me to 2013. so whistleblower. edward snowden reveal that the united states had kept detailed tubs on senior german officials, including chancellor merkel, her phone being tapped by washington. protests on the streets of germany, were followed up with more diplomatic comment from the chancellor. but have always

made it clear to the u. s president, buying among friends, is not acceptable to me. one of the biggest moments of angle american tenure came in 2015 with the refugee crisis. her statement via shuffle. so we can do it. she did a policy which saw hundreds of thousands of refugees fleeing the conflict and syria coming here to germany. something which saw anglo merkel revealed by some reviled by others. each arter guns, i simply say that kim and he's a strong country. we have already managed so many things, we can't do it on these. and whenever there is something sending you know, way, if you don't need to cross that bridge, which is need to work. biggest, if you to invite the window should not lose and search for and what we are seeing right now has no relevant to the present. when this is merkle, repeat constantly, we work with it, but not offered. a structured solution is on to the chancellor medical actions in

regard to refugees change the makeup of the german parliament is opposition to have policies on asylum allowed the anti migrant alternative for germany party to win seats in the bond. the stag, becoming the largest opposition party to her government, and making things difficult to her when addressing the chamber. i me there being no easy route to the finish line for angle american. the government's policies on the coven pandemic sets off a small but vocal opposition that it was point threatened to storm the bond to stuck the mm

the mm mm. mm. the retreat from afghanistan provided the chancellor with more problems in her final weeks with accusations of rifts within her cabinets over how best to evacuate people from cobble. and then issues over who had been able to get home german plane. is that the ever will continue the evacuation operation for as long as possible in order to help afghans who work with it or security by freedom, but for the rule of law and development to leave the country. we currently have a very prag procedure. we only carry out the security check upon entry to the country. we have now identified 4 cases of people who had already been deported border now in germany. as she prepares to vacate the chancellor's office,

just behind me, alarm bells ringing loudly and anglo miracles, christiy and democratic union party as they slump to record lows in the poles. the chancellor's final address to the bone, the stag, which became a tenant to promote the d. u candidate arm and lush it her successor, ended in a barrage of hackles. not just about foreign policy and nato in europe. who would have been with this german boon descent, who was here is the democracy. and this is exactly what will be discuss me. despite the obvious challenges, the merkel years will go down as a time of relative stability for most germans. her policies have made it easier for families to balance. children with korea's employment figures have remained steady while the economy is enviable in the you. internationally, germany has taken

a far more prominent role under medical leadership than it is had in modern times. one of the big concerns right now though, is that with no clear successor to angle america in terms of policy or certainly international clout, what will become of those years of stability that was seen when to her rain patrol of her r t. berlin? well, we hit the streets of the german cities to get people's take on angela merkel and her legacy. it's been a long time. i've experienced 3 chancellors cold, schmidt and merkel. it's strange when you're $54.00 and you've only had 3 chancellors. i think she did a lot of good things for the country and also made a lot of strange decisions. the c. d. u is not my parties, but i think she can happily retire for long too long. mrs. merkel should have gone 4 years ago now. she has lost her way. she did a lot of good in the 12 years before, but now you can see that she's out of steam. i will miss mrs. mccullough because

i'm not satisfied with the current candidate. i would have preferred her. i think mrs. miracle has done a good job, very charismatic. she's accepted everywhere in the world. i'm not to say to you voter, but you can admire the woman. i think everything she did from 2015 on the boards made things worse. she started the wave of refugees herself without agreement. that was not right and it got so much care of here. so here's how the election will work . german voters don't directly choose the chancellor. they elect members of the stock who will later pick a chancellor to lead a coalition government each vote overseas to ballad papers. the 1st is for a candidate in the electoral district and there are $21909.00 constituencies across the country. and the 2nd valid is for a political party, and there are $47.00 of them running for seats. however, only parties with more than 5 percent of the vote nationwide are allowed to access the discovery. one of the major forces in this election is that have the green

party, the main goal. busy is to combat climate change and develop infrastructure in favor of more immigration and a rise in the minimum wage while also supporting a universal basic. despite approving of germany's nato membership, they signed against nuclear weapons. and the greens, one tough a policies on both russia and china. but we discussed how the election might pan out with one current on one form a cd. you potty member. describe the challenges the party is now facing. i live sony tried to get it con, go on like this. we have total stagnation in german politics. we can't get any problem solved anymore. we have a failed cobra policy. no solution when the flood happened problems everywhere. the country is stagnant frozen, and the big parties are also stagnant, says no more progress. that is the cool problem that don't do anything any more. i was in the talk myself for 18 years. it's completely wrong. we want people who put

the good of the country above their own interest, and of course, that is not easy to achieve. but there is a way, don't allow more than 2 terms. then you get a completely different type of person who doesn't run after the mainstream. germany is very well liked in the world or it's because it gives a lot of money to always is in the forefront of don't conferences. it always agrees that it raises from, from the, you know, a degrees is the us on many things. so in that sense, we are still liked, but we have lost much of an industrial base. the con, the countries in decline. we have and not done for catastrophic decisions in her under her watch. this was the energy, the complete change in energy policy, which we call an event in 2011. then there was of cost the euro, the asked, and the failed measure to, to save the euro,

which ended in disaster and in deep depression and the european self and then division and of cause. 3rd was c and controlled immigration policy and migration policy. 2015 and now it's a wrong approach is covered. so it really has a disastrous record which may not be perceived in the world. she'd never formulated german positions. she come up. i think she basically wants to, i'm going to disappear as a political union and so do quite a few people in the ruling class, the governing class in germany. i mean this is really a weird psychology. so i, as i can't find anything good in terms of a major decisions, we will bring you all the very latest on the german balance right here on our international, on air and online. of course you don't, i

ah ah, ah, ah ah ah ah, i actually don't want anybody, but i'm happy to have.
