what is going on in poland right now. i'm returning to a country that i thought i knew well but now it seems that i no longer do i worked as a reporter in warsaw for four years when i left in two thousand and four poland was celebrating its accession to the e.u. the popular vote in favor was overwhelming. russia to help to organize polish support for the e.u. . at that time there was a real sense of optimism throughout the country. last winter i returned to poland for the first time since then and found that things have changed i've received death threats i was called a traitor a for a brussels and a nazi i was accused of making anti polish propaganda films i was even compared to lenny riefenstahl. and all because i did a report on a woman who had fought passionately for poland to join the e.u. russia to today tonight is a member of the european parliament. she's one of the few polish politicians who openly criticize their government. michelle obama and she believes that we fought for decades to establish democracy in pol

but poland's economy is doing pretty well right now. few countries have benefited more from membership. still the government seems to be risking an open conflict with the european union. in december the government announced a series of controversial judicial reforms in general they give politicians greater powers over the judiciary. the dismantling of the rule of law has begun. yet is one of more than one hundred thirty court presidents who have been demoted by the justice minister since last autumn. is a respected district court judge she has repeatedly pointed out that the government's proposed reforms are unconstitutional. and she says that's why she was fired. the government's decision caught her completely by surprise. one day an official letter arrived and that was that she was no longer head of the court there i think because his advice let me show you. the film of fact that here's the letter. pople the new kid i found on thursday afternoon when i got back to the office the stella actually document. there is the call made signed

i mean one of my favorite countries is poland but what's happening in poland is awful. the damage president kaczynski is doing there is dreadful. but they've been elected. of course they were elected in germany we have the far right party they were elected. of course as a democracy we should deal with this subjectively but there's still something vile about it something we carry within as. so not just germans. now i know they can all do whatever they want. when it comes to german history and the german people i'm a complete shove in a sort of beneath. i'm only concerned about the germans because we know better. we should know where this takes us we've gone through it before you know we played an active role. with them if i say i'm not in book mr frank after writing that book about your father you went on to write a second book about your mother and then another one about your brothers. but your latest book has nothing to do with nazis it's a love story have you settled just score with national socialism and your family. the car with me i don't think so i continue to res

on september 17 the red army crosses poland's frontier. on october 5 poland disappeared . german and russian shake hands . the scum of the earth, i believe, the bloodiest -- of the workers i presume. >> germany gets more from the pack then help with the dismemberment of poland. germans are also given a neighbor-based and vast amounts of war materials. french communist sabotage the electrical system on french fighter planes. with the fall of france hitler decide to -- by invading the territory of his recent partner, russia. >>the turning point of the german invasion in russia comes that -- which was then called stalingrad. when the war in russia acquires as the spoil of war eastern poland, --, lavinia, east prussia, and portions of finland. -- with the when you and estonia are incorporated as soviet republics and much of the native population is deported. russia zones of occupation in the final peace treaty in germany, austria and north korea. the russians have the right to maintain barracks in poland, hungary, romania and bulgaria. how did we get from here to there? to the

more soul capital of poland in nine hundred forty and today. the invading german verma left a picture of utter destruction. over recal as grandfather just took these photos. it really is an odd feeling to walk along here to know because i know that he once walked over a hundred also was left town and took the photos off of the german valley marched into poland at the start of world war two rick found some fourteen hundred photos like these now historical artifacts to larn you know i'm sure on the mind they were stored in a closet but nobody looked at them like was my grandfather had also written lots of letters back home and i found them and read the reason just because some things are very personal but he also wrote about the advancing forces. he then saw a photo of this produce painting that hung in his family how it went on to get them give us readers my first thought was that we ought to give this picture back to the people in charge wrote to the polish embassy in germany and told them what i had found from you. in jail because of these pho

courts have been slow in poland including for corporate law proceedings.ne of the ideas and the drivers for the government to change this is to make sure you speed up the pace of courts operating. maybe not as bad as some countries south of italy, but we are hopeful. the whole business world in poland is hopeful the recent reforms will speed up the pace so that's reforms rather than a lack of independence >> that is the intention >> thank you very much appreciate your time this morning. >>> tesla has been in the news recently the securities and exchange commission is reportedly investigating whether the manufacturer of cars misled invei investors about its model p production problems. several media outlets say several directors were subpoenaed after the tweet about taking the company private last week reports say investigations had already begun before that. tesla has struggled to meet production deadlines for its model 3 sedans and a former tesla employee filed a complaint with the s.e.c. accusing the company of spying on employees and failing to act upon

let's have a look in poland let's have a look in hungary let's have a look in france let's have a look even in germany a very successful growth of parties who are antidemocratic a part of their rhetoric is the headline hate discrimination of mind sexual discrimination racial discrimination religious discrimination these people partly are working with you. they are sitting in the european parliament but they are also sitting in all other institutions in europe well our job is to uphold and demand respect for the system of human rights we do that we're putting evidence out there in the public domain tackling the fake news which in large part informs some of the phenomena you're describing getting the data out there for the actual situation no muslims don't bring sexual violence into europe we have our own problem for example no the recent migration crisis did not bring at the semitism a better europe that's longstanding cuts and it will be evident at the deliberations and be whole and civilizations and see if the muslims bring the problems well to the extent that's being said we're pushi
