30 it could become albanias most deadly quake ever the and they could only happen in front of a renowned chefs is suing the gastronomical bible the mission in guides he says it nearly broke him by suggesting he used the wrong type of cheat in one of his slaves. I am. The arabs im going to home free glad you could join me here as President Donald Trump has signed a law backing antigovernment demonstrators in hong kong the legislation calls for an annual review of the favorable trade status that washington grants hong kong now it also threatens sanctions against chinese officials who commit human rights abuses in the territory that china has denounced the bill calling it a serious interfere. Its tunnel internal excuse me assassination but it has been welcomed as a victory by home constant prodemocracy movement from the us no matter the administration and the congress they sent a crew saying no to a presidency hong kong even is on the hot line rule of beijing but we are also the global city that will have foreign businessmen also that live here and how to safeguard hong kongs political at economy freedom best also would be the quiet and also one of the issue that presidency or carom should not ignore joining us for more on these developments from hong kong now is d. W. Reporter sherry chan good to see sherry the activists obviously please but tell us more about beijings response. Right after trying science the legislation beijing reactive previously m s expected it has summoned the u. S. Ambassador to demand the u. S. Not to interfere in chinas internal affairs and it also asked the u. S. To stop causing further damage to file a tro relations and also actually in a statement the Foreign Ministry also said that the legislation have a sinister intentions and is also an act of bullying is also accused the us of being the culprits of instability in Hong Kong Beijing also want that they would take a firm countermeasures although they didnt mention what come to measure would be and it also said that the u. S. Will bear consequences if it insists to past of all right so what about then on the ground itself has the university for example now been cleared of those protesters. It is very hard to estimate actually how many people are still inside the campus actually in the past 2 days there were several different groups trying to and to the university to to look for the protesters one group of guys by newly elected district counselors they went inside and they said they met 2 protesters inside and another group of a nice by the School Administration they said they met one woman actually right after the police and said they would conduct this search in the morning one throat inside the campus met the press and he said that there are 20 people still inside and he also asked the police to retreat immediately because he said that everyone who chose to stay inside they had complete the last trust on the police and he said that if the police will retreat they would leave the campus on their own right but on that point i mean the police say that this is a clean up operation but is there the possibility that they may arrest protesters who they find on the campus well before the police and so the campus this morning they emphasize that this operation would just focus on removing explosive and then just items to make sure that the environment in the campus is safe and they also say that if they encountered any in the featureless in the campus who need medical treatment and they said that they will not make immediate arrest but they would only record their personal details but they didnt mention what they would do with this in the future is to have their personal details recalled. Sherry chan monitoring those developments in hong kong for us as police and to the campus there in hong kong after an 11 day siege thanks very much indeed. Now we can take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world and he witnessed in the donald trump impeachment inquiry has been accused of Sexual Misconduct by 3 women the women say that ambassador Gordon Sunland retaliated against them professionally after they rejected his advances soundman denies the allegations. Britains breaks it backing Prime Minister Boris Johnson is heading for a big majority in next months general election according to a major poll now the result would all but guarantee persons departure from the European Union by the end of january the opposition and labor party are on course for their worst result in decades thats according to that poll. Apple has agreed to russian demands to depicts the Crimean Peninsula as part of russia the region is currently shared his russian territory an outpost not and whether but only for uses within russian borders russia seized crimea from ukraine in 2040 and later an extinct in a referendum that kiev and western allies say was illegal. Now bacterial infections resistant to antibiotics pose a grave threat to human health killing tens of thousands of people around the world every year bots theres hope Scientists Say that a class of powerful tiny viruses called bacteria phages may be able to reverse the trend now bacteria phages are plentiful in the environment theres lots of them and they kill off but essentially by punctuated the outside of the bacterial cell they get inside and they make it explode the viruses have long been cultivated in Eastern Europe as an alternative to antibiotics now bacteria phage cocktails can be bought today in pharmacies in some countries like georgia for example but elsewhere belgium has also started to offer treatment with phage is but its not widely available in the European Union which means that some patients have to go abroad to get hold of the medicine. Tanya dieter i cannot remember when she was last pain free and she biotech start working against her skin disease which she contract to 30 years ago so she found a different treatment bacteria phages but because theyre illegal in the netherlands she had to travel thousands of kilometers to police see georgia and spend thousands of euros for savings to buy them and i thought a good george i was extremely nervous but also i was very exciting and also very disappointed in the treatment in holland because holland does not allow the phage is so i had to go all the way to georgia only for this just to get there are many different types of bacteria phages viruses which target a specific type of bacteria 10 you drinks to different pages each day and also puts on a cream really i hope that their fate is allowed in europe soon because its difficult for people to go to georgia also its very expensive to go there and to have the treatment how much did you post your. Treatment in georgia was pretty 1900 euros i paid when i need new phage is when they go to send me new ones i must pay 500 euros. To get new faces for 3 months. So its a lot of money in neighboring Belgium World leading Phage Research sean paul pinay created a legal model for prescribing phages for patients in burgeon we had some Critical Mass of people interested in turkey on Different Levels we had. Research level its good to see your thirtys and also in hospitals. I think that the burgeoning belgian solution is slowly spreading i think other countries are getting interested in this approach belgium is the only e. U. Country where phage is easily prescribed to patients pinay says that lives have been saved with phage is made in his lab i think that fish therapy is getting more and more important because i. Think so or more and more fearing. People are actually dying because their infection going to be treated with antibiotics. Phages are more expensive to create than antibiotics but pinay thinks that they will be useful therapy for the future. 10 years hoping that the rest of europe will open itself up to face therapy saying. Well for more im joined now by dr custody from the brain does that hospital hair in a bun and welcome to you to begin with i suppose rule where at least fearful all by crazy microbial resistance then do fade as presents a cure all for diseases when taken orally all their viable alternative to antibiotics. I think if facial taken only orally this will be a problem because juices there at sit so the guesser gets it the features can be destroyed too therefore we have to lower that content in the gastric. And then afterwards i think its possible that the features converge in the normal situation the faces will be given topical eat into the warrant and perhaps combine it with. The orally given faces are there any risks. To the best of my knowledge up to now we have no real bat informations about c. V. Or side effects and its interesting to see as we saw in that report that using phage is is far more widespread in Eastern Europe for example than it is in western europe how extensive is research for example here in germany in western europe into the east if ages as far as us as no as far in germany we have real 10 to 20 Different Research spots as even during a 1000000 sri Research Institutes or sri interested groups and we have a group in branch like. In 100 over in munich instance got i guess even in germany we have a lot of Research Institutes and in europe we have i think a lot and perhaps some if there would be a good network. More in s. In poland or in georgia we saw in that report its tremendously expensive on a daily basis according to that woman who was just talking in terms of that treatment all the hurdles that need to be overcome to make phage therapy more viable 1st says we need an awful approval in germany. And for the official approval would be we need evidence based a day based date or for a benefit for the patient and for the safety of the features and therefore wed have to talk all together the information we have about treating with features right dr christine really from the blunders the hospital hey thank you for coming in and sharing your expertise with us this morning. Well rescue teams in albania are in a race against time to find survivors of tuesdays earthquake the death toll has now risen to 30 putting the quake on course to become albanias deadliest ever powerful off the shocks of complicating the search and forcing nervous residents to sleep outside crucifying in from across europe to help with the such efforts. Sniffer dogs from a crime and rescue teams scour the remains of a collapsed building. A guileless still missing in the rubble. Piles on the street people who have lost their homes wait for help the coastal city of duress is one of the areas hardest hit by the quake 27 buildings here have been destroyed killing at least 12 people. After the main quake on Tuesday Morning 2 rez was shaken by several strong aftershocks. Fearing the earth may shake again many residents are scared to stay indoors some are spending the night in their cars. Or under canvas hundreds of people have sought shelter in a camp a steely set up at the local football stadium. Its the 2nd night theyre spending here. It was great because with you why should i go home im afraid i went back just to take my medication and you shaking began and i ran out im scared why should i go back with a member of course. We are terrified. This was something we did not expect we were all asleep and everything started to shake and. Thats all it was a night. Tonight were staying out with the baby. Yeah. While aid workers 100 food and drink to the evacuees the search for survivors continues a team of Italian Firefighters the sun cameras down into a wrecked building to look for the missing. 2 days after the main earthquake struck the chances of finding anyone alive and getting slimmer. Or pressure is growing around the world for recognition of the wrongs committed by european powers during the colonial era of the 18th and 19th centuries now one consequence is that around 15000000 people of african descent live in europe where they often face discrimination and a conference is taking place in berlin this week as part of the uns decade for people of african descent we have the story now one man who is the grandson of a german doctor who lived in togo in west africa when it was ruled by germany hes been trying to gain german citizenship for almost 30 years now. Hunger strikes and arrest and deportation garrison label has been through it all and pursuit of his right to german citizenship over the years hes collected ample proof of his claim by and visit his house are full of documents and photos. Love has no order whether youre black or white thats love. My grandfather was a government doctor in the protectorate of togo. There he met my grandmother did your own. And married her according to the legal standards of the country at the time. You had acted but the marriage that resulted in garrisons father was not recognized by the German Authorities then or now legal was prince tailless in togo then moved to germany to his grandfathers hometown of travelling and then came to berlin with his wife and son he was arrested and deported to togo immediately after registering at the berlin job center. At the lesson ive been fighting for about 30 years now says im almost 60 years old and he doesnt think about the part of my life that ive lost. Not all cases like erikssons are known only around 160 such relationships were officially recorded in africa during german colonial rule interracial marriage was prohibited for germans at the time and carried significant penalties for those who engaged in it to form a race based law still had scarce and today. I mean. Its discrimination pure discrimination it. Could also say that its about racism. Therefore im asking the German Government to find a solution to this outdated racist law. And reach a reasonable decision for those concerned they did because. If it. In 2017 after the naturalization of his son was allowed to join his family and germany but the travel documents that were issued to him by the German Embassy in tokyo have expired and he cant get new ones. I feel persecuted by the immigration authorities are sending me around in circles they dont want to give me my travel documents for theyve been dragging me back and forth every since. These situations are common for stateless people who often have no access to legal processes to the lack of documents through his fight gessen hopes to inspire discussion about germanys colonial past and how people like him can be a part of its present. Well whether this in the studio to discuss this in greater detail is and this a bit ken is it from the university of potsdam she is taking part in the people of african descent week as a founder of an organization that promotes dialogue on the issue great to have you with us today its been and theres a bit understandably the u. N. Is calling for all countries to and discrimination is its kind of overarching topic for this discussion but lets talk about germany for a minute what kind of discrimination goes on in germany so 1st of all let us start by saying that germany is one of the signatories to its also called Treaties International human rights treaties including the International Convention on that emission of all forms against Racial Discrimination going back to the sixtys so there is an obligation to implement this law i think actually to fight and protect people of african descent against Racial Discrimination and what were seeing is that this not so much recognition so far its been only since 2017 that we have a National Action against racism actually that recognizes black people as victims of forces them so theres that lots of them so how does that manifest and for example for people of african descent living here in germany in a daily basis what kind of difficulties can they encounter in a daily basis point of concern face the challenges that the social rights economic rights and also Political Rights im not realized in reality on a daily basis for this community. Attacks it can be violence but also. Discrimination from police for example which we call racial profiling so on a daily basis in this nonrecognition in politics also lead to the fact that the. Visible theyre not being seen as a group that needs to be protected me talking about being invisible literally we in that report so gas and for example he was stateless hes living in limbo because of a colonial era law how much of a problem is that here in germany unfortunately we have to say that the killing of parts of germany is not so much in the narrative of remembrance so we need to see more actually of the revisiting of the past germany has been a colonial power we have seen suffering especially in the form of the b. B. L. The heroic nama due to this legacy and we see continuities of the cluny legacy today also beat the street names for example but also the victims of those not being recognised so what would you like to see change 1st of all we need to go into the political education that we do not single out clearly in the historical narrative of germany and that actually students children learn about the clue of past and also about continue to use in the societies because we have a lot of serotypes that go back to those to slavery and colonialism that is based you are taking part this week in the people of african descent conference you have that meeting with the German Parliament what are your hopes for that conference what would you like to take away so 1st of all the International Tickets for people for consent needs to be implemented. Member states of the United Nations have agreed to do stick kids in 2013 and actually drawings from 2015 to 2024. Germany implement i mean we recognize that in 2016 and since then we asked to yet to see changes and also action so we are calling for an exit plan to implement this decade and we are also calling for. Funding or so for social sites organizations so that they can also promote their communities whether it is with canadas or from university of potsdam and from the Canadian Foundation all the best gear discussions thank you very much joining us thank you for having me thank you.
