asking for to try to come up with a european solution to essentially fix the broken system for refugee and migration policy within the e.u. we have a very important use summit coming up in two weeks time and this would give her some time to try to find agreements with other affected e.u. countries. this morning there had been other indications that perhaps the c.s.u. was going to remain firm and in fact at the moment they are denying that they're ready to do a compromise with the chancellor but frankly their options are very small if they were to push this to the limit and essentially go through with the ultimatum that mistress a hope for had delivered to the chancellor tomorrow then he would be out of a job and the party itself would wind up having to leave the governing coalition with not very many good options for remaining in power at the national level now america has been under huge pressure for a long time to fix this is something that's divided the european union how do you think she's going to go about putting a solution forward in the coming weeks well as you reported apparently the she is

that's the refugee and migration cry sis and what else is happening in this crisis is the public health tragedy. diseases that we thought had been erad indicated are now reemerging. and seeing these infectious diseases spread in the americas. they have done a great job of trying to reduce the impact of the infectious disease in the americas and now we have a political crisis undermining that work. so a heil-level meet thalg look at those impacts. one that and will seek to bring to bear international tools to deal with the refugee and migration crisis as well. and then the next thing coming up is the oas general assembly. cancun taught us a lot of lessons. you learn and you try again. our goal remains the same, that is the restoration of democratic order in venezuela. we can use the oas to help do that, but we need to be courageous and take a hard look at that consensus mod pelt we need to create a core of companies willing to take a brave step, willing to dots right thing, willing to implement the tools and principles that we've created for oufr ourselves and have done such good work in

that's the refugee and migration crisis. and it must besized that what else is happening in the context of this crisis is a public health tragedy. diseases that we thought had been eradicated are now reemerging. as you have movements of populations, we're seeing these very infectious diseases in the americas. now we have a political crisis that's undermining that work. a high level meeting that will look at tse impacts and will seek to bring to bear international institutions and tools to deal with the refugee and migration crisis as well. then the next thing coming up is the oas general assembly. cancun taught us a lot of lessons. so you learn and you try again. our goal remains the same. that is the restoration of democric o in venezuela. we can use the oas to help do that, but we need to be courageous. we need to take a hard look at that consensus model, we need to create a core of countri willing to do the right thing, handgun to implement the tools and prin -- willing to implement the tools that we have created for ourse

explain this a bit further for our international audience what happened here the office for migration and refugees has several bromst in the german states one of them is the city of raman. and in the branch of braman the head of the broad of the office for migration refugees. must have more as way frew several thousand those several hundreds. over thousands of refugee asylum applications and even allegations that she was bribed. that refugees more or less just had to pay several hundred euros and that they would be then equipped with false papers. or on the half of these false papers that they were granted asylum in germany this of course is a huge scandal and the scandal has already put so much pressure on the government especially on the interior minister holst zeal for who was in office then when this gamble happened but who is in charge of clearing up the whole mess and it's putting quite a lot of pressure on his predecessor thomas de musea who is also who was the one who was in charge of the whole refugee crisis interior minister during the last election period what happens next not just phys

imagine then that this could put pressure on her and her migration policies will it do you think absolutely because the rock migration policy and the refugee policy closely linked to a person very the refugee policy over until america has been under close scrutiny now for several weeks now as we've seen the house being a scandal at the federal migration office already and if we now have a look who has made these allegations the it is troubleshooter vies it's not just some of the official of the migration or has it is the show's mound of uncle americal herself himself under michael chose fungurume buys it to cope with the problems in the migration office and when he is now saying this office was in such a state i haven't seen before and it was totally unfit to tackle the tasca it was made full and i told you several times and you didn't do anything this puts close brush up not only and i'm glad michael but also on the former interior minister thomas dementia and the corruption scandal at the office that in but i mean can you explain this for all international view is absolutely the. the office for migration and refugees plate into several b

border towns like paso and also number at for example is the head of the federal agency and of refugees and migration so the topic is here and a very certainly very present and both the states current states premium and federal interior minister jose over have made it a recurring topic in their rhetoric but they're the same time it's not the only topic that will be determining the bavarian state election in october fourteenth there's a lot of issues going on in my social issues and structure and development there's been three very controversial laws that have been pushed by a legislative initiatives pushed by the sea is you one has been the crusoe order where crews have to be hung in public buildings now in bavaria there's been a legislature and on mentally ill and on the new were new or toss for the police here in bavaria that has been criticized quite heavily so there's a lot of different debates going on on different topics in the various that will eventually determine the state elections different topics there max and yet migration is the one that's taken center stage how much has the far right a

wanted to make some sort of a trip and all of america's refugee policies so if this committee would come then we would not only talk about the scandal at the migration office we would talk about the refugee crisis as a whole and this is something i'm glad michael doesn't want our political correspondent made about thank you you know what though. saying in germany president hunger in my has oscar to gay people for forgiveness for decades of suffering and injustice in germany in the nazi era and off to world war two he spoke at a ceremony marking the persecution of gay people under hitler but he also condemned anti-gay too was that remained in place in post-war germany and led to thousands of prosecutions. and now some of the other stories making news around the world a power blackout airport has grounded hundreds of flights and left thousands of passengers stranded airport officials said the source of the power failure was a short circuit or unable to say when electricity will be restored. london is marking the one year anniversary of a terror attack on london bridge eight people were killed and forty eight injured when three men drove a van into ped

migrant numbers they said that the chancellor and the former interior minister failed to take action this comes as the federal office for migration of refugees faces an internal review after officials at its claim and branch were accused of accepting bribes to waive more than one thousand asylum applications. i'm joined in the studio now by d.w. political correspondent report but there are reports that chancellor merkel knew about the difficulties that the agency is facing quite some time ago one would imagine then that this could put pressure on her and her migration policies with it do you think absolutely because of the rough migration policy and the refugee policy closely linked to anglo american as a person or the refugee policy over until america has been under close scrutiny now for several weeks now as we've seen the house being a scandal at the federal migration office already and if we now have a look who has made these allegations the it is troubleshooter fungurume buys is not just some of the official of the migration or has it is the show's mound of uncle americal himself himself under medical shows fungurume buys it to cope wit

to most of his yeah and the corruption scandal at the office that in but i mean can you explain this for all international view is absolutely the. the office for migration and refugees split into several branches which are all of the branches of the german state so there are there's a there's a broad to bremen there's about want to believe in there's one in bavaria to this specific braman branch must have waved through more or less more than one thousand saddam see because giving that granting them asylum although there was no legal ground for this and there's even talk that some of them bribed their way through to their sodomy. replication and this of course is a huge scandal at itself we've already seen very inquiry last. where the acting interior minister a whole see whole thing has already said we have to closely look at everything and you already started pointing the finger at his predecessor thomas de musea so there was already some motion towards the government towards putting pressure on anglo-american so this scandal is adding up now it is a huge scandal have we heard from the government how are they responding to all of this was i just said the house being

only the one that we're discussing now but also a wider crisis for example in the office for migration and refugees the so-called bomb we reported on that here in the w. news but it's also important to stress that it's not only about migration and there was already skepticism among the german population when he came to this new coalition and also skepticism when it came to those long negotiations before the coalition was formed so obviously now the situation is much more acute done for example a few weeks ago but it is also the case that there were certainly doubts and skepticism even before this latest scandal erupted there must borrow at the german parliament thank you very much for that. the issue of migration and refugees is also set to top the agenda of a meeting today between french president in modern mccraw and italian prime minister just set the continent tensions between the two countries over it it is refusing this week to allow a rescue ship with more than six hundred refugees on board to dock. the decision irresponsible. that we now draw in. is in paris covering that meeting max this l

this also has the positive effect of getting people to stay in their countries and reducing the problem of migration and refugee sing along with the pressures on a region like europe a bit of damage does not deal in generalized cooperation. we are actually joining the two aims by which you can subordinate one to the other. about death but what you're aiming for is not something that takes effect quickly people won't wait can you change the situation in the short term and then i'm gonna. go come on so yes you can. given the dramatic situation with millions of people becoming refugees i have already explained the need for a substantial investment in countries that are under my more pressure than others and we do have a greater burden to bear the neighboring countries are where the refugees go first . most people want to return eventually because it's their homeland their relatives lives that are that they want to go back and they're not but if people find refuge not in neighboring countries but further afield and with her children growing up in a different culture here then it's less likely that they'll return it

and migration are no longer needed. she's rejected calls from her bavarian coalition partners to turn away refugees at the german border. instead merkel says europe needs a common approach to asylum cases and you know given europe is facing many challenges but migration could become a make or break question for the e.u. that we tackle it in such a way that people in africa and elsewhere believe we guided by our values and that we insist on multi-lateralism or nobody will believe in the value system that has made us so strong that it is needed. but the far right alternative for germany is harshly critical they're the biggest opposition party in german parliament and they want to close borders for refugees. migration is hurting us more than we benefit from it with a euro spent in africa we gain more than we spend it here let's close the borders and accept all resettlement programs and. medical must now get results at the european council summit in brussels otherwise there could be a split between her c.d.u. party and their conservative partners the c.s.u. which in turn could lead her government to collapse. well european

and also development investment. speaking of international support the united nations you talked about the drivers of migration and refugees what is the u.n. doing to try to to stop the conflicts that are driving these refugees to leave their homes we need one level of course the united nations has the security council in which important decisions are taken the bold. peacekeeping missions and initiatives and maintaining peace and security but we also know that look at syria this conflict has been raging for more than seven years novels or babies no imminent solution in sight in the meantime the united nations is trying to combine many tarion emergency assistance with investments in development activities to make sure that people get a perspective that they're not just warehoused in countries that have provided protection but they actually have the opportunity to put their children through school i think these are very important measures to support and sustain refugee populations precisely in those countries that otherwise at a disadvantage mr bush thank you so much for talking with us today dominic bush the u.n. h.c.r. rep
