And historic change at the helm of germanys social democrats andrea nala set to become the first woman to lead the countrys Largest Center left party but this party is deeply divided especially over its Coalition Deal with the conservatives well get expert analysis. Plus the trial of a Palestinian Team turned protest icon this video of i had to mimi slapping Israeli Soldiers went viral back in december now shes facing twelve charges including assault before and Israeli Military court our jerusalem correspondent has all the details. And as calls for political change in nigeria gathered pace our correspondent there sits down with former president ola saying. An older sanyo now a vocal critic of the countrys current leadership. Brian thomas great to have you with us the former president of georgia turned ukrainian protest leader Mikhail Saakashvili has been deported from ukraine to poland after being detained by armed men at a restaurant in kiev now ukraine says had been staying in the country illegally saakashvili described the move as a kid that hes led repeated protests against ukraines president accusing him of corruption. This Surveillance Footage reportedly shows the moment a mass men stormed a kiev restaurant to detain one of the governments harshest critics their target Mikhail Saakashvili the former president of georgia the ukraine government insist hes trying to stage a russian sponsored coup here thats actually says president poroshenko should resign for failing to fight corruption his attorney blasted kievs actions as outrageous it was a time when its a kidnapping and not the detention because the detention would be based on either a Court Decision or other documents and dispose of the case with exact issue really was taken into custody by Law Enforcement agents the Ukrainian Border Guard Service says he was an illegal resident of the country in two thousand and fourteen if this in ukraine endures. And. Really says he remains confident and he says hell soon give a statement on his deportation. And how exactly will you fight to the end for the very latest lets go to nick standing by for us in kiev nick such as the always in warsaw and now hes described the incident as a kidnapping as we just saw he was detained by mass whats the latest on the situation. Good morning brian well it certainly was a pretty dramatic afternoon here in kiev yes its true the actual detention happened without much in the way of official procedure these were people in camouflage but without any uniforms on they later turned out to be agents for ukraines Border Guard Service it seems that once he was safe got to the airport it got a bit more official and he was handed some documents by Customs Officials before being put on a private plane and spirited off to warsaw i think the really important thing here is that the ukrainian thoughts hes had to learn their lesson to extent that they would have to do this quickly if you remember before christmas they tried to do the same thing again they were men security in camouflage without uniforms trying to arrest him just a couple of meters behind me where he used to live here in the center of kiev and his supporters were able to rally around in a couple of hours and prevent his attention even pulling him out of those police because of this time it really was about speed ok this blitz deportation if you called that you know icons as saakashvili was trying to unseat ukrainian president Petro Poroshenko these two men were once political allies what happened. This was a political friendship that they had even study together in the eightys theyve known each other for the good best part of thirty years sex really came to ukraine to his term in office ended in georgia to bring his experience of wide ranging radical reform but he felt that he wasnt getting the support from the Central Government to allow him to make those changes and he very soon found after a year that he wasnt able to do what he wants to do and left government turned from an insider to an opposition figure and its also important to remember that he had big protests planned for this coming sunday so thats an added incentive for the government to try and bring this forward and formally they had all the reasons to do so because formally given that hed been stripped of his citizenship and he lost his appeals for asylum he was now stateless person here illegally and i think thats very much the line the government will take that this is a formality something based on the fact of his citizenship his illegal status here and they will try and reject any political aspect of this ok so saakashvili is basically stateless right now what are his options at this point he cant go back to georgia is he going to stay in poland. Well quite as as you mentioned hes got an he was sentenced in absentia in georgia three years in prison so you face prison if you were to go back there he is very close to the current Bush Administration those ties go back to two thousand and eight and russias war with georgia when they flew to tbilisi to show their support for him he has forced the border last autumn he came through despite having had this isnt shipped stripped unity machine came to the border and helped him basically force his way through so you might try that again but as weve seen the ukraine authorities seem to have learned their lesson and have tried to be a little more fleet footed than they were in the past i think hes now its about taking stock and seeing what real support he has in europe and in the u. S. Hes stuart those have been very close to republicans to. John mccain and to really see what pressure he can exert over the ukrainian politicians to get back in and make ali following the story for us this morning in kiev nic thanks very much now for a look at some of the other stories making the news at this hour train crash in the central austrian town of nicholas or has killed one person and injured more than twenty Police Say One train hit the side of the other near the station the cause is being investigated.

An honor given to all president s former first Lady Michelle also unveiled her portrait the former president joked that he tried to get the artist to give him less gray hair and smaller years but to no avail. Its to south africa now that countrys governing a. N. C. Is set to recall president jacob zuma as head of state that according to a number of local sources now this comes after the party held lengthy closed their talks on his future the seventy five year old has been facing mounting pressure to step down in a series of corruption scandals but he survived numerous attempts to oust him from office before it could soon be the end of the road for jacob zuma a. N. C. Party chief Cyril Ramaphosa left marathon talks in pretoria with a message for the president zuma own party has decided he should step aside his critics say a series of corruption scandals have left the president unable to credibly lead his country. To do so as it left his resignation would break a political stalemate thats left South Africans uncertain over whos running the country. Who was elected to lead the n. C. In december is poised to assume the presidency if zuma steps down but the countrys largest Opposition Group says thats simply not enough. It is the view of equality that is his people p. C. If i really think it was gene he couldnt and this will prove first of all the fish food is better then since the. Cup is in the country he is the would be two hundred my cousin cheesiness. Instead the opposition is calling for parliament to be dissolved and for early elections they say its the only way to ensure legitimacy. Ramaphosa has sought to reassure anxious South Africans that zuma speak will soon be resolved. I say this country. Because we know now you want this matter to be to find out why. You want closure on this matter. Over here as you do one crucial we werent doing so. Can be now on our. Own once in their interest or not even for air are we continue to you are not i that they should from zuma already faces a motion of no confidence in the South African Parliament next week if he refuses to stand aside impeachment proceedings could also be in his future. For more im joined now in the studio by their view correspondent christine moonwalked good morning christine what happens if zuma refuses to go what they mean see do they see will be forced to take the message to parliament to way it is more than likely that they will table a motion of no confidence against president jacob zuma a date has already been set for that the favorite the sick the twenty second we know that off that marathon meeting will actually end in the midst of that marathon meeting last night. President sort of a puzzle went to take place in his house and effectively told him that the party had decided to recall him and that he had forty eight hours to make up his mind we are hearing unconfirmed reports that he insisted on staying three months away that he could attend the African Union summit in the bric summit but that was denied to him he was given a forty eight hour deadline later today we will be hearing from the main see in terms of what progress has been made whether the president has agreed to step down or if its going to be taken to parliament ok that will be an important moment in this entire process that zuma has been under pressure for years can you bring us up to date on and on whats been happening how do you fall out of favor with the party brian they have been a lot of scandals around this president and are people asking the question why is the a. N. C. Only now making the decision to oust this president when for example the opposition parties have have tabled at least seven motion and confidence motions in parliament a. N. C. M. P. s throwing those motions out essentially because they have the numbers it all comes down to the fact that jacob zuma up until december last year had a consolation of power he has he was a president he was the countrys president anybody who dared speak out against him within Party Structures and that was really the place that he could be removed was kicked out of the party and so it was political suicide essentially for anybody to to challenge this president but when the tide turned out in december sort of a pause that took over as president we saw as a significant lead significantly diminished our. Well that for instance last two incidents last week right when south africa was supposed when he was supposed to give the state of the Union Address and the party effectively turned him down and he could not do that so his powers have been reduced and now hes facing the ultimatum essentially ok and hes also facing a skeptical public isnt he water everyday people in south africa saying right now about all of this South Africans are inferior because theyre looking at this and theyre saying this is about self preservation that this isnt about the good of the country that president jacob zuma is thinking about all the trouble he has coming his way when he leaves office and they him refusing to step down is it essentially because of that theyre also looking at people who still support president jacob zuma within the Party Structures and ill say you two are also only looking out for yourselves a lot of those people implicated in corruption charges listen to him as a South Africans have this this picture of a president or a man rather who they see as having looted the state has havent been corrupt and now faces the prospect of prison after office and hes doing everything in the little power he has caved to to to survive that and we should know more today we want to know most of where this is all heading to see manuel thanks very much for that kristie well monday was the United Nations International Day against the use of child soldiers armed groups recruit boys and girls and conflict zones and forced them to carry out often brutal crimes now there are an estimated quarter of a million child soldiers across the world mainly in africa in south sudan aid projects are trying to help former child soldiers reintegrate into society. David was once a child soldier now that terrible time is behind him and hes working as a cop and making beds chazz and tables when he was still fighting he almost lost all hope for his security were protecting his identity. There are so many bad things. In the sense of millions being killed. Theres so much death and hunger and nothing else. Has done for years according to the u. N. There were nineteen thousand child soldiers in the country some days ago groups released three hundred children not all were recruited by force some were driven by poverty to join many have come back traumatized. Yes i will think of people because theyd probably make it past the minute if you dont. Aid projects like this cop and she watch out good for my child soldiers professional training and prospects for the future. Its worked for david his job has made him more positive about the future. Change will take time people will continue to suffer but someday it will get better. But that will only happen once peace talks actually amount to something.

Home edition to go to work for or to n. G. O. S its really want and i believe should look deeply. To see what you what went wrong if it is not the cultural of course we didnt go that was a shock. This is the interview news still to come on the show World Leaders under satirical fire good of you visits the german city of cologne as the carnival season reaches its high point. On markets here now could the u. S. Russia with some new economic sanctions why you know brian that so for us President Donald Trump seems reluctant to do so but washington is expected to impose pressure penalties against russia for its alleged meddling in the twenty six thousand u. S. President ial vote and those sanctions would primarily target drug Financial Institutions key to the countrys massive arms export business which is worth billions of euros and therefore crucial for the russian economy. Weapons have traditionally been a booming business in russia. Last year russia export a twelve billion euros worth of arms to fifty three nations private banks usually play a key role managing arms exports but many of them are now subject to u. S. Sanctions potentially throwing a wrench into russias well oiled arms industry until moscow repurposed the props vs punk that is the bank manages russian arms transactions and keeps them hidden. So social so that the. Establishing a network of companies is all you need to transfer money. From the outside its not at all transparent still its. Until recently. Was a private lender catering to the middle class but at the end of last year the bank found itself at the brink of collapse in january moscow responded by nationalizing it in appointed the head of the Russian Export Center provide golf as president. He has close ties to the kremlin and his father used to head russians Foreign Intelligence Service literally economists are concerned about growing links between the state and the Banking Industry and what they can but its a new. Im not happy with this solution. Huge its a soviet style solution and will not lead to any good ship. The putting a short. Government influence in the finance sector is growing some say moscow will order the central bank to keep. Awash in funds to finance arms exports. Do you have a problem see as well finance on companies. That. And if they work badly and run out of money. The bank will go to the government and ask for funds are you there should you should you give your cobra show for each additional. Experts in moscow predict that the u. S. Will soon extend sanctions to the bank but the government seems unfazed at the prospect when it comes to guns it seems where there is a will there is a way. So what do fresh sanctions possibly mean for the russian economy and its Business Partners in particular lets ask and b. S. Can now hes managing director of managing partner at Accounting Auditing and Consulting Firm and partner in moscow good to have you with us first of all i mean i dont know if you were advising aabs companies as well but you are advising companies doing business in and with russia how are they coping and those sanctions currently in place. Good morning first of all. First question i have to say no we are not advising Arms Companies that is traditionally not big business it was not a business before sanctions certainly not a business after sanctions but yes we advise a lot of companies mainly from germany german speaking companies but also from other countries and these companies have developed certain strategies how to cope with the sanctions and business goes on in a certain way you intitled to explore those strategies how do you cope under the current circumstances as a business. The as a lawyer thats for as a lawyer i can only say we hope within the existing framework that Means Companies adjust to the new Legal Framework and that means certain products cannot be exported anymore other products have to be verified certified by a german export control agency and if theres agency says its ok then there can be exported and certain Financial Transactions are not possible anymore and companies have to take care also have we had vice and to take care of that and this is a new Legal Framework which is being implemented away and one has to be creative i assume and we just heard in this report it was mentioned that there is a a growing link between the states that means moscow and the russian Banking Sector does that worry you as as an attorney or devising german mainly Medium Sized Companies Medicine Companies we are not really concerned about that our clients work either with their own financing or they work with established banks mainly foreign barings which operate in russia and the and youre right the state influence which has increased in the russian Banking Center is not really effect for the german exports was who are active in russia right and to be asked now managing partner at accounting audit ing and consulting from goodwill in patna joining us from moscow thank you so much.

South africas ruling a. N. C. Wants to remove president jacob zuma now that after the party held lengthy closed door talks on his future zuma has been facing mounting pressure to step down a mist a series of corruption scandals. Well here in germany a look set to be an historic day for the countrys Largest Center left party the social democrats the s. P. D. Are expected to appoint andrea knowledge as their first ever female leader now thats after Martin Scholz stepped down amidst turmoil in the party over a new Coalition Deal with conservatives for over one hundred fifty years the social democrats have been led by men among them the former chancellor of any parent now germanys Oldest Political Party could finally get its first ever female leader martin shilts is set to hand over the leadership of the party to under anonymous the historic changing of the god. And of a leak this is especially not about what would be best in this situation and i also had to consider whether i can and want to fulfil this task after these processes of deliberation we both decided that this is the best course of action you know this is the best to be as leader of the social Democrat Parliamentary Group known as was valued for her ability to bring people together and motivate them. She also has a reputation for being outspoken. Some say it was her speech at the social Democrats Party conference that secured the votes needed for starting Coalition Talks with angle americas conservative blog. We will not give up our s. P. D. Party beliefs if we decide to govern in a coalition. And renata started out more than twenty years ago with the in the s. P. D. Youth organization the young socialists she became their leader in one thousand nine hundred five back then she was a student of Political Science and told torture velour in one of her first interviews that she didnt plan a political career. For you i dont want to stay in politics for the rest of my life so after being chairwoman i want to look for a real job and for that i need a good degree of knowledge finished her studies four years later and to stayed within the ranks of the s. P. D. Ever since as m. P. Party official and later as labor minister one of her cheap minces germanys minimum wage law she also fought successfully for better pensions despite this she is not very popular with the german public. Moxon shoots a short term unit at the head of the s. P. D. Is now its up to him dream notice to beat the pocket plan to its strength. While that as the s. P. D. Hits yet another historic low in the polls with me in the studio right now a Political Correspondent keith brady and use of yawning hes the head of the Berlin Office of the European Council on Foreign Relations good morning to both of you thanks for being with us if i could start out with you kate you know is on free and also the best choice to turn things around at the s. P. D. As its ratings with the public crater well certainly she said herself one of a main aims is to reinvent they espied a of course they came away from septembers elections with that. Result in postwar history and one of the parties right now is to every define that profile and says a really huge expectation on her that she could modernize the party and bring more women into positions of leadership and shes also a younger face shes sixteen years younger the Mohsin Schultz who has just stepped down as the posse leader so she could well indeed be just what the posse needs right now of course the headquarters tonight theres nothing to say right now that she will in fact be appointed as the sake of all interim leader of the social democrats there is a lot of support for her from the senior s. P. D. Members but at the same time theres also some office ition theres also some of the candidates that could well throw their hat in the ring tonight ok so its not a done deal yet i use a few good use you dont under your nose since she was a young person entering politics so what do you think can she turn things around shes got the guts and shes the next generation so and shes a woman so shes got some of the essentials working for her on the other hand its a bit too early in the circumstances are not really to her liking because it raises some questions shes not one of the elected deputies. The Party Chairman so it a way its sort of sidestepping the usual process is if she would would come in some members take issue with the fact that that is an inner circle of deal. Behind closed doors which actually decides about whos going to. Be the next chairman so you know people used this democracy argument in order to to challenge her and that was ok and she does represent something of a generational change not the kevin cunard of the of the youth the way in his late twentys you know this is a generational issue with the c. D. U. Isnt it as well but theyre behind the s. B. Day theyre lagging in theyre bringing in new faces here the not that far behind at the moment theyre on quite a level Playing Field obviously the new mr oppositions havent yet been decided you know they havent been set in stone yet. So said on sunday that she was keen to bring young fresh faces into the ministry positions and in addition to that of course as well as bring him all female faces into the michaels not exactly renowned for her work for women particularly in bringing them into positions of leadership but that could come hundred. Of also say one of the main names thats being thrown around right now is. Not female but he is just thirty seven and then you are rising star in the party of course but he could well get the position of the general secretary of the cd but then youve also got characters like you they a clerk heres actually only forty five as well so there is that kind of that they are working towards bringing all females and younger faces into the sea to you as well as e. S. P. They ok there are a lot of pressure to do that theres also a lot of pressure right now to get this deal signed off by the c. D. U. And by the s. P. D. Do you see this happening do you see the deal being signed off by the s. P. Day yourself come march second one we should know march fourth. What that vote is by the party rank and file well thats still a bit of an open question and it very much depends on how the s. P. D. Leadership as if shes now put on the spot how she handles the weeks between now and early march when members have to decide there i think there is still at this point of fifty five to forty five chance for this to succeed because there is such a turmoil inside the party so the vote can go either way ok i want to go bigger look at this potential coalition right now its being called the government of losers because the s. P. D. Actually lost the vote but it has the best ministries including the ministry of finance and the Foreign Ministry is that a fair description description just for you start with you well they are role winners of the past elections this is not a coalition of a new start rather of an extended ending in a way because everyone knows its going to be americas last term the s. P. D. Has a couple of strong positions thats true but shes its yes but its also tied in firmly into cabinet discipline oh theres theres theres a balance between having tea positions and being then responsible for actually arguing politics that the government has taken also views of the ones own membership of voters ok the membership and voters many of them want to see europe moving farther to the left with the french what do you think would this coalition take germany and europe farther along the line of greater integration as all americans already indicated well of course one of the big hopes was of course one mustnt feel it was still expected to be in the cabinet as well but we are we even saw already from this blueprint of the grand coalition dayo first five pages are all fight because purely on europe side that is definitely the direction that germany is going to move in in and of course its going to have played an even larger role in the center of the e. U. Now im still with the u. K. Planning on leaving as well and. Well the french president Manuel Mccollum has been waiting for months to have. From germany but the gods to these reforms that he serve desperate to push through so though be a lot of expectation from germany with regard in that role in the year ok so expectation outside of it and inside of germany right now in terms of the future kate brady for us our Political Correspondent and use of yawning out of the blue an office of the European Council on Foreign Relations thanks very much both of you were off his real now on the palestinian teenager has become a symbol of the struggle between the Israeli Occupation of the west bank goes on trial today seventeen year old had to mimi is being tried by a military court after she hit and pushed to Israeli Soldiers last year no footage of that incident you might have seen it went viral the case has shone a light on the complexity of defining exactly what is and what isnt a legitimate form of resistance to the Israeli Occupation. This video went viral and december two Young Palestinian women heads to mimi and her clothes a newer slap and push two Israeli Soldiers standing guard on the property where i had lived it sparked a fierce debase for palestinians i had became the symbol of resistance to the occupation. Others mainly in israel portrayed her as provocative. Shortly after the video appeared online israeli authorities arrested the next seventeen year olds at her family home and heads father bassam is awaiting the trial of his daughter and wife although the family filmed the incidents bassam refutes accusations that they exploited their children for their political cause we want to show the world was the and was the victim we. Picked ourself because if there is no camera he will look bad like before twenty minutes we use chemical because its part of what we want to know what nonviolent resistance i had faces twelve charges including assault and incitement in an Israeli Military courts her mother is in custody as well. This is where it happened in the village of nabi salah in the occupied west bank the israeli settlement of hallam east is right next to the village settlers have taken over the village water source and much of the land villagers have long been against the occupation. From a young age i had to tell me me has often been seen on video defying Israeli Soldiers there have been protests on and off here since two thousand and nine they often turn violent with palestinians throwing stones and the israeli army firing rubber bullets and tear gas at least two people have been killed. On the day the video was posted adds cousin mohammad was shot by soldiers with a rubber coated bullets as close range seriously injuring him in the heads the fifteen year old is still recovering. It is made me more afraid of the soldiers because they shoot anyone in the head all the free store were of a now the rubber bullets hit you very hard. Hes in israel the protests are mostly seen as part of the palestinian Propaganda Machine to make the Israeli Military look bad and that is something the Israeli Government has little tolerance for they want to send a message to this family and also this village that basically this kind of. Way in which theres a lot of videos to try to show off Israeli Soldiers evil that this kind of profiting off this as. The state kind of accuses this family of havent done that this is not going to go on israeli human rights activists say that i had case also shed light on the controversial practice of palestinian children being tried in military courts or held in detention i had to mean he could face a long prison sentence Israeli Military courts have a conviction rate of over ninety percent. Had heroin or provocateur for more lets bring in did our views correspondent tanya kramer joining us today from jerusalem good morning tanya i mean he says that her ongoing protests are part of a nonviolent resistance but in fact shes facing charges that not only include is assault but also incitement to terrorism calling for suicide bombings and stabbings how strong is the governments case on these charges. Yeah i think youre prepared if youre referring to the statement she gave apparently after this incident at the same time thats did really outrageous and is going to Public Opinion everybody was watching this pushing and shoving with the Israeli Soldiers and the prosecution is expected to build their case on that statement that you just quote. Just to show that shes not that an innocent child an innocent minor calling for nonviolent protests now knowing. That this business too inflated and she also told her that this has to be seen in context in context one to what happened on that particular day and also in the context of whats happening in the village and in her surrounding specially. Tiny details why is i had being tried in a military court and not in the civilian court. Well but the thing is living in the occupied west bank where the military occupation they had tried it in a military court thats the Justice System theyre referred to and that is also the concern for many human rights organizations they came out of that not only highlighted that case is not just a in the case because there are many other miners also they didnt try and facing detention in. Israeli prisons but also they are asking the question whether this can be a threat also because it has been so high politicized ok not only that this case comes as israel faces a potentially violent direct escalation with iran in syria now hows this affecting Public Opinion about this trial. Well im not to show this is the fact so much because Public Opinion at least in israel has been quite strong on the case there was really an outrage you could say the media also amplified the you know the incident and the focus was supposed to fall and how restrained actually the Israeli Soldiers responded to the two. Pushing them but also you know there was saying that theyre just puppets of that activists parents at their back coming from the vine and ten million that just out it to make the israeli army look bad and there was really a call for a very tough response that was also echoed and by criticisms and even ministers cabinet members of the government and then also some jewish groups who called for the release of eid so if you show how politicized the whole. Issue is because that depends on which narrative you have on this conflict briefly briefly if you could what kind of punishment is ahead likely to receive. Well it depends so many now on the line and what the prosecution will go but some experts here would say that she could definitely face some years in prison and we have to wait and see how this is when this trial goes from that time to crime or thanks so much for that from jerusalem. Well in nigeria campaigning for the election in february twenty ninth tina started to gather pace and critics of president mohamed who bihari are getting louder bihari has not publicly said whether he will seek reelection he spent much of last year in london being treated for an undisclosed illness it took office vowing to eradicate the Terror Group Boko Haram from nigeria he also pledged to modernize the country in crackdown on corruption but observers say he has not achieved much or nigeria correspondent agent krishna met with the former nigerian president Olusegun Obasanjo he endorsed bihari for the presidency in two thousand and fifteen but now has criticised them in a stinging open letter when you think back was it the right decision back then in two thousand and fifteen to endorse. If it was the right decision with the benefit of hindsight you will agree with me if you know what happened and what is happening what has been on revealed about the. Government of you not the girls who were with him in terms of. Corruption. And you will agree that yes it was the. Right decision. And i believe it was a decision also that is good at that point in time for our country not a democracy because we were able to trust. From one party to another party. So we. Sort of thought were. Consolidating democratic. Process. So it was the right decision. And then. Its also the right decision now for all to see that the maoist taken over from. The not time has not met the expectation of now you know that is what democracy is all about mcchrystal its about change if things are not what they should be forced right decision but if you see that not read fiction then you are not a democrat and i am a democrat and tomorrow if i take a decision and things are not walk out the way we have expected to walk out and they democracy then you take. You make a change. One of the major promises of president was to fight corruption thats like his flex topic you know basically saying that he turns a blind eye on corrupt people in his inner circle has to corruption fight failed already. Why put it that way. That probably where he was looking outside it wasnt looking enough inside because if you fighting corruption. From you. Know you got option is becoming rife then you have to also put your attention and work what would you do difference to him if you were the president and fighting corruption and i would do exactly what i did before i set up the two major. Institutions be used to for corruption i would make sure the people in charge of these two institutions men or women of integrity will look outside inside because theres no point in fighting corruption beyond you have corruption on your nose.
