Case fizzles out in court we look at why prosecutors decided to drop criminal charges against Hollywood Star kevin spacey he was accused of groping a teenager. Im sumi so misconducts good to have you with us what started as a racist tweet has become a rallying cry for supporters of donald trump at a Campaign Event in North Carolina the u. S. President repeated his attacks on several democratic congresswoman some in the crowd started chanting send her back. Now earlier this week a trump had tweeted that the representatives should go back to their countries despite them being u. S. Citizens. Kratz condemned his racist comments but republicans have thrown their support behind the president. Heres part of a speech in which he goes after those for minority lawmakers. Just for the hate filled extremists who are constantly trying to tear our country down theyd never have it is a good decision thats why i say hey if they dont like it a little believe little. There are always some others i dont run out of the you know what if they dont love it. Leave it. Arent some very inflammatory words there from the u. S. President lets put them into perspective with the cold when virt and america analyst at the German Council on Foreign Relations here in berlin hi nicole thank you for joining us we heard those words there trump taunting these congressmen theyre all a minority congresswoman they are all u. S. Citizens as well weve heard inflammatory comments from the president in the past so how significant is this very significant because it sets the tone not only in the next few weeks by maybe for the future and also for the future Election Campaign so we should be very concerned because it will further. Divide the u. S. Society on the particular very heated issue of migration ok so this could set a really significant precedent is what youre saying absolutely it also this chant send her back it also reminds us of a chant from his earlier rallies especially in the campaign trail before he became president which was locker up he aimed that at as a democratic rival Hillary Clinton do you see comparisons there between these 2 chance absolutely i mean in steering this excitement and the sentiments he very much caters to the interest of the people who voted for him to a small segment who really want to see a very tough stand on migration that somehow shifts to attention to you know and to. To single cases in order to maybe to overshadow the fact that his migration policies so far were not very effective and this is a term issue and something that. I have to tackle in the next few months in order to be the didna for the biggest nation that works in implementation of a decent policy that works and here we see that. Staring in motion so. People. Might not get a result from from him disrespect to a really working in the creation policy or lets talk about immigration policy now what trump is not just targeting american citizens with his words hes also a continuing to target migrants reaffirming his promise to deport millions of undocumented migrants and thats left a lot of families living in fear of raids by the u. S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency also known as ice and the idea is Helen Humphrey met one family seeking shelter from ice in a church. Like most parents. Couldnt imagine being forced to leave her children but as an undocumented immigrant her greatest fear is a realistic one rosa fled violence in el salvador 13 years ago now shes facing deportation post 3 children were born here in the u. S. Our youngest son john has Downs Syndrome and shes worried he wouldnt receive the same care in el salvador and so for the past 8 months shes been seeking sanctuary here at cedar lane Unitarian Universalist church in washington d. C. Living apart from her children during the week so they can still attend their school. When they got to the hc it was hard telling my kids that i had to seek refuge and if i couldnt go back to my country and leave them here and i also couldnt take them because i would be putting them in danger they could be killed or you know the criminal gangs their recruits. From the age of 10. And if they refuse you know they killed them. Roses deportation was ordered after she missed an immigration hearing when. They fitted with a monitoring bracelet and ordered her to leave the country and. Then going to a friend whats going on i had to tell her i was coming to say goodbye i had to put my children and another school i had to tell her that i was being deported. It was hard for me. That put it on with your all that. But i want to deport me because i missed a Court Session but we all know that doesnt make us a criminal or not. Is another one the matter of. Reverend abby jerram and she hopes that ice agents will avoid entering places of worship the church is now one of 50 religious communities offering sanctuary. We decided to become a physical sanctuary congregation driven by the Guiding Principles of our fate and in these times where we see the Current Administration engaging in policies actions that threaten the safety and also the humanity of people. The church has also started an Information Campaign preparing undocumented immigrants for deportation raids and how to avoid arrest mainly by refusing to open the door. For voters and many people like the threat of deportation rates has confined them to living their lives in the shadows of society every day activities like buying groceries or seeking medical care come with a sense of fear now President Trump says that ice is set to your abuse of quote millions of illegal aliens from the country the reality is closer to around 2000 people without papers and democratic lawmakers say that these kinds of statements are a tactic to intimidate Communities Just like this one let us once again that the community is not backing down or holding vigils to that rosa no they will protect her even if the champ administration is taking a different stance. Case of the mother we saw in that report really is just one of many of undocumented migrants as we heard really living in this climate of fear and at the same time weve seen the president use identity politics as an important tool ethnicity and migration and you said those are tools you were saying earlier to distract from the fact that some of his policies might not have worked but still do you think that rhetoric will help him get reelected to another term in the white house you know why im sure there will be the next elections so many things will happen in between but certainly in using this kind of language and showing that hes very tough on this issue. And he was satisfied parts of his electorate by by using this kind of speech i think the big challenge is for the democrats and for those republicans to really want to work constructively on that issue to come down to really be very precise on ideas how the one to deal with the migration challenge which is very complex. And not to be hysterical and not jump on the same train and try this but to really have a fact based discussion and we need to to be a balance to be more balanced and to unite people in the discussion about this this topic because for trump is going its really he appeals to the emotions of people in a way that. Any debate on on the particular part of particularities of migration policy. Is not in the forefront and this is what these people use or if they need a clear guidance you know if they can stay and that which Long Distance and how would u. S. Policy in the future deal with migrants in this is what the people expect and hopefully there will be a more sober discussion on the whole issue in the future all right nicole river from the German Council on Foreign Relations here in berlin thank you for your analysis.

To istanbul now where a landmark trial continues today against a prominent turkish philanthropist and 15 others accused of organizing antigovernment protests in 2013 the socalled gezi park protests started over a planned park construction in Istanbul City Center but they quickly spread to other parts of turkey now 6 years later the defendants are being accused of trying to overthrow the government a vegetarian or to one our correspondent yulia han reports i these pictures are 6 years old. But when john ill tell i sees them he still remembers everything. In the summer of 2013 when police dispersed the protesters in istanbul until i was one of the demonstrators who fled the tear gas. Thats when i think of gays its not just about the Police Violence what i remember most is the peoples hope for more equality freedom justice in turkey everyone who believed that their rights were being ignored by the government took to the streets to be heard. Back then ill tell you i was a lawyer and he still is over the past years hes defended hundreds of people in court many of them government critics journalists trade unionists. But now he finds himself in the dock as a defendant since june hes being tried in connection with easy pop protests. Hes one of 16 accused most of them a prominent members of Turkish Civil Society they face charges of attempting to overthrow the government but organizing an uprising. The prosecution is seeking a total of more than 47000 years in jail for the defendants. Over to digital would reach and how there is no evidence in the indictment and thats why the accusations are baseless. If you were supposed to have planned a coa temped is that out of cured that will of course it is is it unlawful yes it is the rule of law does not exist in turkey anymore this is the. Inmate 27000 a few dozen istanbul residents occupied to prevent a construction project state police drove them away but that only fueled more protests. But. It soon became about more than just preserving a few trees in istanbul the protests spread to other parts of turkey. And demonstrators started calling for the resignation of regift type and at the time Prime Minister now president. Both in italy and all in half the police and to protest by force those scenes back down to place right here on the symbol central texan square today there are no remind us of the mass protests 6 years ago the game is a park is right behind me nothing has been built there but the area is now being closely monitored by police they set up barricades to prevent gatherings antigovernment demonstrations are not being tolerated. President add one is named as one of the injured parties in the indictment he has called the protests an attack on the unity of the country controlled and financed by flooring activists. A columnist for the progovernment Newspaper Daily agrees. Especially the western media. Romanticize that they saw part of our arab spring pros protest they thought it was kind of a turkish spring this is starting with the label it was a bar to Environmental Issues but it turned to a while and activity that while and you werent anti end of the day and trying to topple a government which is the more critically elected government. John the lawyer who is now on trial sees things differently for him because he was an act of civil protest against an increasingly authoritarian government and that he says is something that nobody should be thrown in jail for. Now theyve been called internment camps even concentration camps but they continue to be built chinas detention of weekers and other muslim minorities in the province of shin jan are part of what the government calls its fight on terror and now that practice has opened International Support in a letter to the Un Human Rights Council center just days back at least 37. 00 countries have supported chinas quote Counter Terrorism and the radicalization measures in changing including setting up locational education and Training Centers as some of these countries include north korea saudi arabia and me and mark some 1000000 readers and turkic minorities have been detained in the camps because of their faith 22 western countries also sent a letter to the Un Human Rights Council asking china to stop these arbitrary detentions but china sees things differently. This is what china wants visitors to see a full dance outside the largest mosque in the country the spectacle belies the sinister realities of life. We go. Up to 1000000 of whom are thought to be held inside Reeducation Centers like this part of a growing complex of sprawling secretive camps for journalists trying to get close to the prisons. Plainclothes police stage road Traffic Accident and run Old Fashioned interference to stop outsiders finding out whats happening inside. A former inmate described his or deal in an interview last year. They grabbed me and put me into a metal chair like device in it you stand still and cannot move your arms are secured by the metal parts in your chest is exposed after 6 hours in this device my whole body ached the pain becomes unbearable but. This is why 10 years ago we riot after 2 workers were killed by a han chinese 200 people died in the clashes fearful of a repeat the crackdown against the readers continues to this day. Independent Analysis Shows that in recent years the number of camps in the far Western State has tripled last month the government allowed radio controlled access to the canteen and dormitories at one Facility Access all areas it was not. The busy food market in downtown tells a very different story but despite appearances here this is still a province shrouded in secrecy. A woman who died of ebola in the democratic republic of congo might have carried the disease into rwanda thats according to a new report published today by the World Health Organization the Public Health body is calling the Ebola Outbreak in congo and International Health emergency the warning comes after the 1st ebola case was confirmed in goma a city of more than a 1000000 people that neighbors for one. Partner wonders border with the democratic republic of congo Health Workers in yellow vests checking travel as temperatures before allowing them to enter just across the border in the city of goma the death of a traveling pastor has sparked fears the disease could spread where now congo is a bold outbreak has been declared a Public Health emergency of International Concern by the World Health Organization. But the w. H. O. Has stopped short of calling it a global threat saying the virus can still be contained regionally without travel bans. That does not require any restrictions on travel or trade which rather than stopping it. Can actually hamper the fight so i dressed street sions forced people to use informal and border crossings increasing the potential for the spread of disease that. Was. New of all the vaccine is proving highly effective but a looming shortage of the drug has Health Officials worried dosages have been hard to prevent a shortage. That we have a gap in vaccine and there is a limitation of supply we wouldnt have been involved in the just a dose was if we had adequate supplies of vaccine available right now so excellent a raising of the real ability of actually thats a priority its been almost a year since the latest eyeball outbreak began in the region more than 1600. 00 people have died and twice as many have been infected International Donors are being asked to step up funding to stop the crisis from spreading further lets get more on this story with brianna p. F. S. Shes with the Aid Organization world vision and she joins us from goma had brianna the w. H. O. As we heard is calling this crisis in the Public Health emergency of International Concern you were in goma where the 1st case was detected there how would you describe the situation where you are. Look thank you for having me absolutely correct this is becoming a critical point in the of all the response so since a case was confirmed and that person died theres a lot of see in the city of daraa where extremely concerned because government is a city of more than 1000000 people and its very close to the border of rwanda and sorry. We havent yet started to hear of multiple cases across the border every chance 1st of all the crude spread and weve already saying more than 2 and a half 1000 cases the only 2 thirds of various people have died and one 3rd of cases of children their lives have been completely disrupted by a boma so are you the situation is very critical and theres a lot of fear right now. As we heard there is a vaccine that has been proven to be effective but there is a shortage of that vaccine right now why is that why isnt it more available. That scenes are expensive and as Everybody Knows funding has been a critical issue in this response not just the the World Health Organization but for all aid agencies responding on the ground doesnt administer vaccines how as we would urge people to consider that prevention is just since crucial is treatment sorry we can have vaccines and i know that theyre being administered to people who come into contact with people who have confirmed cases of all law however if we can reach communities and make sure that their way or what to do to prevent the spread of a brawl to protect themselves from a bola then thats going to garri a really long way to help contain the of all the outbreak you mentioned prevention this is also an area thats been described as a war zone i mean what is making it so difficult at this point point to stop the spread of the virus. Theres more than 100 armed groups in north and south kavi so its a very challenging situation for aid agencies and health wickets to operate in just a few days ago we even had to help where kids who were assassinated according to reports sorry its extremely challenging and agencies and responders on the ground doing everything they possibly can to containable and stop the outbreak although were approaching one year since the valar was 1st declared i think agencies on the ground and the local Health Workers have done an amazing job to stop the valar from jumping borders until recent wake sorry theyve done fantastic work but we need more support and threat of security incidents should not be used as an excuse for the International Community to not do more right brianna from world vision joining us from goma thank you very much.
