Its not just prodemocracy protesters who want to make their voices heard of the i they are singing china keep going i want to show. Like emotion and my loyalty to my country my month that country came on their own but i hope the hong kong crisis will end soon all the victims of the hong kong people or they simply dont know how to have a lot of times its a response to entitle beijing protesters shown here who have converged on shopping malls over the past few days they are singing the anthem glory to hong kong. A couple of. Tensions are running high between the 2 sides. I think that the home cause freedom ill run by that i thats what im not. And also i think that i was. Our poll tests. Will kick on to you this doubt phone call government it doesnt feel our feisty my eye of the so far only one of the 5 demands has been met the controversial extradition law was scrapped last week but demonstrators also want hong kongs leader kerry lamb to step down an inquiry into Police Brutality the more than 1300. 00 arrested to be released and greater democratic freedoms. And joining me now from hong kong is correspondent Mathias Bellinger mathias another evening another weekend of protests ahead what keeps these protests as good a. Job i well thank you the people go and thank them but their banks discovered this that they are many thanks to stanch this was also another thank you sam go in and thank you as they have experience because im so that when death notices again i stop protesting thank god there was a truck bomb on im going to see movement. Band thank you council and i think she has tightened its grip on the city because there is a fear amongst these protests stop c the bands and this is also was keep stand go away was a new wing they feel they have not achieved enough yet to stop them oh so then the protesters are determined to make themselves heard as we can see it is robust chanting and singing that tell us theres also a light show which is planned for this evening whats that about. Today is a traditional chinese holiday one of the most important chinese holidays the mid autumn festival and one of the traditions is to bring lanterns and to light lanterns on this day so the protesters have somehow used this occasion to make themselves heard any oks and basically in hong kong at this time is used by protesters to stage protests to show themselves they have people up at this place to space is also a place where people traditionally go for this festival the line rock one of the highest points in this city. And they have come here today. Which is because of course this is an impressive picture if it was from above and also you can see from below from the city so its just had to sign in the sense of the world. Now it seems that through beijing protesters and i have supporters have also been holding their own rallies of support is there for these rallies the probe the beijing ones busy. Yes there have been a few major probating rallies wrote the last 2 months which have drawn a few tens of thousands of people and there have been some minor protests one was today but these protests are usually outnumbered. The prodemocracy protests and surveys in the city show that the vast majority of hong kong those are supporting the prodemocracy movement are not the way supporting all the methods people use especially the violence but theyre supporting the cause of the program off the wall thats the only way. To fight in the city. Right on to some good understanding front off the noisy prodemocracy demonstration in hong kong thank you very much for that.

Its election time in the rural village of money. Young politician who. Is trying to convince people he had to go out and vote but many farmers a skeptical politician comes out and i was not. Trust politicians to us none of them told the truth cheated us the farmers. So far we havent had a single government that kept its promises. Program how many i just above understands the frustration of many chinas ians are disappointed with politics now more than ever the economic crisis is causing problems for people and some blame democracy. Several president ial candidates are openly in favor of a return to authoritarian rule tunis is the only country that introduced a parliamentary system off to the arab spring 9 years ago democracy is now at stake thats why how jaar wants to fight for it and what we should go by and. What i talk to a lot of young people and not that old i enjoy it when i tell them how much we used to dream about democracy i ask them what they dream of today and how we can make their dreams come true when assad from using them and one of somehow. Most people are probably dreaming of getting a good joke about one 3rd of Young Chinese ins are unemployed especially University Graduates a most of them want to emigrate. In the inhuman edges of the 2 things are important in the president ial candidates must 1st recognize this problem and secondly actually solve it and that if we cant meet the expectations of our young people soon it will be a serious threat to our country and you and i can i lets see you instead of working toward strengthening the economy politicians only care about themselves cisco dasi for years shes been at the forefront of the Youth Movement a mouse she wants to boycott the election. Said bin if i found the ethics of the Political Class very frustrating its all about internal power struggles and accusations that frightens me bob nearly 90 percent of chinas in surveyed say that dissatisfied with politics but not everyone has given up more and more people have registered to vote in the last few weeks perhaps this is also due to the chair initiative which was launched by the president where young activists advertise the parliamentary system to other young people. Like him. But he was a very ask people what they would do if they were in charge then we tell them where the election is in part and look at people need to understand what the president does what the parliament does then politics will no longer be a mystery to them and that i use shops only by michelle shall i go pick up the wall. One topic that continues to puzzle is the outcome of the elections 26 candidates compete with very different profiles and goals according to polls no individual party can count on a majority the 2 top drunk candidates will probably have to face a runoff fight.

To turkey now where this music video has caused quite a stir. The 15 minute track of features no less than 20 rappers and its title. Jerkish for icon stay silent and is quickly shaping up to become the vital cry or otherwise increasingly solid opposition to president event you do on. And from on the story im joined now by do reporter nicole d. C. Welcome and the call as we said this video has caused quite a still in key tenets why and what makes it such a hit an explosive hit in edgewise sticky indeed an explosive hit want to phrase it like that because it addresses issues that havent been talked about in public and turkey for quite some time were talking about violence against Women Political corruption but also the destruction of the planet and the reason why these issues have been kind of been kept under the table for some time might be that in july 2016 when the president at one was almost ousted to by a coup attempt tens of thousands of people in the Public Sector such as teachers and also doctors lost their jobs and what human rights activists labeled as a sort of witch hunt against people who might have a different opinion of the president so there were also lots of journalists that have been detained once and again and again and that pretty much wiped out the Public Square and left social media as one of the sources that people could go to to talk about issues and this repost of pretty much taken this soap box and turned it into a ghetto blaster lets just have a quick listen. Putting money in a car not on a luxury. Good choices a lot of shit. That is really a little more sinister. So you see theyre really not moving back theyre really sticking to that title so some mom i cant stay silent ok now im sure you one is not amused by this video but what about the ordinary to challenge a finding it well it has received over 21000000 clicks in just a week which is a really lot it really has hit a nerve that so many clicks in a week its really a tremendous and an observer of turkish politics whose name is kind of car is calling the song a political earthquake and quote incendiary art the kind that holds a mirror up to society and then shatters it and its also prompted many to go to social medias talk about this video and exchange their opinions on that video and as you might expect there has also been some blowback by ankaras former may have for example was also a member of add ons party hes claiming in a tweet that the video is trying to instigate rebellion so you see the discussion is really ongoing and as you said before its causing quite a stir up here in what you bought the opposition says how a big gun of responding to this fallout from the video has got exclusive access to some of them so we talked to them and they say well they dont want people to pick sides but pretty much wants to encourage people to speak up to start a conversation about these also global issues and then maybe try to find solutions to these issues so pull together and also see what can be a Brighter Future for turkey lets just quickly listen to what theyre saying to. Them which. Shows that it was an example of the most of. The middle you. Getting. From all of the. Group. Mark will. Be. Related to them of course. So you see theyre really trying to pick up maybe long overdue discussion here and certainly reclaiming the Public Square and the song could very well be the beginning of a new movement that we are observing and turkey and targeting they must the youth seem to be trying to encourage debate and discussion and become a catalyst for change nicole reese that was a very interesting story thank you very much none of the story is the former iranian judo one champion who says he fears for his safety and that of his family after he ignored orders to pull out of last months was champagne ships iranian authorities are concerned that fayed might face an israeli opponent in the final israel is considered an arch enemy by the iranian leadership is now here in germany considering whether to seek asylum spoke to him at an undisclosed location about his athletic and his political fight saeed mulai arrived at the 2019 world Judo Championships in tokyo with nothing but glory on his mind but after he reached the semifinals in his Weight Division things turned sour mulai claims his coach then received 2 calls from iranian authorities instructing him to withdraw his fighter from the tournament to avoid meeting an israeli jew in the final.

But youve seen my sights im in the best of all my career i beat the olympic champion and the bronze medalist i beat many of the best but then came the semifinal in order to comply with the laws of my country i lost the fight and the much for bronze to add to what it will. Mulai says his family was being threatened now hes being kept in a safe location but fears for his and his familys future should reach out as new life ive begun could have consequences for me not just could he definitely will 100 percent i cant return to iran and.

And really feel even. Because of high humidity. Now many parts of the world are experiencing desert if occasion its not just the region that are running dry many here in germany farmers have been seeing a below average green off the 3rd hottest summer on record in the eastern state of brandenburg with a show way to gauge the severity of a drought is to observe the behavior of cranes. Cranes with their young a rare sight this summer here in the northeast of brandenburg the birds have less offspring these days a matter like this one is actually the ideal breeding ground for cranes says thomas falters local nature guide here the birds can find enough food in these low lying areas the water is usually up to one metre high this provides the koreans with enough protection against foxes and other wild animals but now everything is trying. To dig a little while before he finally reaches water. Already serious when a hold your passes by without a brood period if its only one year they will probably survive because cranes can live over 10 years but if this happens more often it is really serious. The drought is having to manage consequences for other species besides the cranes. Example to your ration britain which has been breeding here annually for 15 years there are several parents in the neighborhood which did not even meet this year because it was so dry and you can see that shirts everywhere that used to house Small Creatures like water snake is so worms that have no chance of survival due to the lack of water the biologist expects 500 fewer young koreans this year than in years past normally about a quarter of the 10000 or so pairs of koreans living in germany nest here in brandenburg that this happens a few years in a row they might migrate to question is where i dont know what it looks like for the north so for the eastern poland. Has been a big drought to some other to. The drought establishes itself as a normal weather pattern then annual spectacles like these might become a thing of the past.
