Nazis within the German Police force means 30 officers are suspended for sharing images such just because in chat rooms and not face criminal investigations. And guilty of corruption the former head of well of left takes this sentenced to 2 years in jail following a doping scandal his lawyers say the course has made him escape the scapegoat. I merely for the most unwelcome greek authorities have formally charged for afghan migrants with arson for their alleged involvement in the fires that destroyed the morea migrant camp on the island of les boss the fire destroyed most of the camp and left the psalms of people without shelter the greek army and International Aid organizations have set up temporary cams but some migrants say they need. Difference in. Row upon row of tents on the greek island of les pass thats been set up for migrants displaced by the fires that gutted the morea camp but theyre mostly empty. Migrants are choosing to stay on the streets in squalid conditions many say they would rather remain here than run the risk of being detained for months in a completely new camp. Some of even return to what remains of moria. They say the temporary tents are not enough they want long term solutions. Going to the look that comes to not that i want to go to one when we want a free life weve come here to live we are human and we are not animals. They put us in a place where theres no life and its like a jungle. A human cannot live in such tense. So far only about 1200 of the roughly 13000 migrants rendered homeless by the fires have moved to the new temporary accommodation the Un Refugee Agency says theres a capacity for another 8000 and is urging people to move it says its the only way forward. People have been can come to this camp and we encourage them to come there because its from here that their process will continue that their procedure will continue that tradition is going to be found and that people can leave the island because of the idea is not that people remain forever on the island of this war. But while several european states have offered to take in migrants from lesbos others say they will not theyre offering to provide more and even more tense instead. The issue of migration was central to e. U. Chief was left on the lines maiden state of the European Union address where she urged Member States to step up she unveiled plans to replace the current rule under which asylum claims are dealt with in the country they have 1st mate the process has been criticized for years with southern European Countries like italy and greece complaining they are bearing the brunt of near rivals to the glock the morea fire pushed the issue into the spotlight as some countries said they would be willing to take in migrants left without shelter by the bait. And im caught up with the e. U. Chief and i asked her about those divisions there are many issues a Member States dont agree on like migration for example has he received any signals that after what happened at moria member cities are more willing to change the course the good news is that next week we go to the commission is going to put forward a migration pact and this is a holistic concept to manage migration and i expect that the Member States will engage in the discussion so that we can really move forward and have a common plan to deal with that topic while the struggle continues for a european solution to the situation unless the next refugee drama is unfolding at another european external border they carry islands around 4000. 00 people have arrived by boat since the beginning of the year hundreds have died while making the treacherous journey on the atlantic many fleeing the deteriorating security situation in the head with both departing not only from morocco and the territory of Western Sahara but also from mauritania and senegal hundreds of kilometers further south the increase in traffic on this route comes after the European Union started paying morocco to prevent migrants reaching Southern Spain fire the mediterranean. Well arrivals to mainland spain fell by half compared to the same period last year and landings in the cattery islands have nearly increased nearly 7 fold. The sea is surprisingly calm this afternoon at least where ventura. And his friend in for him today remember well the high waves when they arrived on the Spanish Island theyd already spent 3 days on the sea in a riveting in the Atlantic Crossing between africa and the Canary Islands is considered the most dangerous escape route in the world. So literally we heard air leaking from the reporting at that moment everyone was scared to death i had the feeling that this could really be the end for us i thought about my little sister who would then be left without me. And i thought about friends i would never see again which i was in a state of shock and i couldnt move anymore. The leak was successfully patched and abdul reached the spanish coast in the last few weeks alone more than 1000 migrants like him have arrived in the Canary Islands many mediterranean countries have tightened controls against immigration because of corona and the well trodden route via libya has become dominated by criminal gangs with such developments the dangerous atlantica route has become increasingly attractive new arrivals are placed in largely empty hotels the islands Tourism Association has shot criticism for the governments decision. The working to promote for the ventura as a safe and clean island that in the best of health nobody likes to see hotel full of migrants now thats reality. At the government level island director Domingo Fuentes also received criticism from other sites human rights activists criticize that the migrants are sealed off in hotels and dont have access to asylum procedures. They want of conditions similar to those in greece where the migrants lack the most basic necessities twentys rejects the criticism so. We are a southern external border of the European Union here in the same way that the e. U. Is currently addressing the issues of migration from the near and middle east it should also address the problems arising from migration here on the southern border. And adding to the stress the government sees growing concern over Coronavirus Infection rates immediately upon arrival people reaching the island attested in one of the last groups half of the tests were positive many newcomers like to morrow and today want to leave the island as soon as possible and move on to the european mainland where exactly they dont know yet the main thing is a place where they can find work and essay from deportation back home. Lets take a look at some other stories making news around the world south africas president Cyril Ramaphosa has announced a very very easing of the countrys lockdown which was one of the worlds strictest borders to most countries will be opened from next months in a televised address told the nation we have withstood the coronavirus storm. In the u. S. Hurricane sally has been downgraded to a category one storm caused Severe Damage to parts of the florida coast heavy rains have given rise to severe flooding in the city of pensacola the storm is expected to weaken as it pushes for the inland. The government wants to remove Britains Queen elizabeth as its head of head of state and become a republic the caribbean island gained independence from britain in 1966 but retained the queen as its head head of state the Prime Minister says its now time for the country to have a baby and head of state. And here in Germany Police have launched raids against some of their colleagues officers suspected of trading new nazi images and private online chat groups 29 Police Offices in the german state of north rhinewestphalia has been suspended 11 and now under criminal investigation images shared and huge pictures of out of a nazi symbols such a swastika and this is not the 1st time germany Security Forces have been at the center of a scandal involving far right extremism. By this grace and a slap in the face for germanys Police Forces thats what the interior minister in north rhinewestphalia called the discovery of czech content in which 29 Police Officers shared right wing extremist material. Including for example pictures of hitler of swastikas of imperial war flags but also many more horrible images like the fictional depiction of a refugee in the gas chamber of a concentration camp Police Officers from different cities and 34 Police Departments took part in the czech groups they were all suspended pending the results of the investigation they could face charges of inciting racial hatred a spokesman for the federal interior Ministry Said the reports are worrying. This was for those local and what we are hearing from north rhinewestphalia is very alarming. It is a disgrace for the police force there but of course it also has an effect on the entire Police Profession throughout germany. Its not the 1st case of far right extremism spreading within germanys police and military forces in july a former Police Officer was arrested for threatening politicians across germany referencing a neo nazi cell in his emails and in june germanys defense minister disbanded part of the armys elite commando after allegations of far right extremism within its ranks. Earlier we spoke to sociologist Alexander Young gal and asked him about the scale of the problem within the German Police force a problem we only know that there is a problem and its not a minor problem you know it is. Racism i think theres a man who was a rip a police teller to release violence but with the this theres not much Much Research released and was solely the ministry of interior i dont have a great interest in doing research on this. On this topic so we dont know much about the expense of. Reason in the police but we can what we can say is that there is a problem for instance we know might mean really if we interview that they actually dont cooperate with the police because they say hey there are Police Officers who are actually members. So what you. And what we also. Know is. There are. Months which. You know so we only know that. We dont we you know the former head of world has less access been found guilty of corruption and sentenced to 2 years and present a french court found that mean d. X.

Runner crystal donee said she was all smiles after the verdict but says look im a bonehead you cant see the grin on my face with the mask im wearing but im very happy to have been recognized as a victim of the corruption by the i double f leaders and im also happy for all the other athletes who were.

Where its a volunteer like church the phonic was if it was walking along with the classical education pupils are also taught good manners proper etiquette and dancing. The way 15 year old barbara is the daughter of an oil company see shes attended the school for 4 years. Not too bad. I proceed to turn. I think they did so this traditional dance was very popular in the 19th century. And were practicing it for our schools anniversary celebrations was when our parents and many other guests will be clear voice. Celebrated in the style of the imperial era the ball is one of the highlights of the school year barbara will also dance before the watchful eyes of School Founder constantine around here. Ill admit im a bit nervous at the most but after the dress rehearsal therell be less stress and at the ball ill be much better she says for. Barbara lives in an exclusive residential area not far from the school with her parents and her younger brother. A room is decorated with russian icons but recently barbara has also been learning to play the guitar and her walls are also covered with posters of rock bands which arent on the curriculum at the st basil the great school. For some of the she im a completely normal teenager. I listen to alternative rock like the ramstein 3 days grace and green day. And theres a magic dragons and my chemical romance she made the rainbow flags which symbolize the l g b t Pride Movement herself.

As for that post last fall our shores and i drink to your big family may it remain united thats whats most valuable to ourselves. And that you honor tradition to you and your specific things weve known each other so long because thats not. Maybe these russians are so focused on tradition because their recent history has been so chaotic for many change breeds fear the bullshit that in russian history says to them every major changes lead to violence. If you please could you let me push you to those who believe weve always had bloody revolution losing to crews with many deaths and lives shattered. Ligi should keep. Their job right here theyre all put in supporters mainly because russia has enjoyed sustained Economic Growth during his rule. Since 1909 the average income has increased 10 fold more union today we have more faith in the future. The country has stabilized. We feel protected in every way you can make money legally stability is the most important thing. But putin doesnt just have the wealthy upper class behind him he can also rely on the support of a legendary slavic people known for their courage and fighting skills the cossacks. Their troops on horseback once defended russias borders and spread fear among opponents and religious minorities. Rostov on don in southern russia is the center of don cossack culture. Grigori is 15 years old his father and his grandfather were cossacks his lifes aim is to defend his homeland. The hurdle to put down which everyone must decide if hes a patriot or not. So today russia is subject to many dangers from abroad with a little before the wish to submit is a she think you should i have to defend my motherland one day. Im even prepared to sacrifice my life with. The stories we need to instill. Grigori has already internalized the cossacks values of patriotism militarism and orthodoxy. Its a mixture that matches blood a mere pittance conservative ideals. Grigori as a cadet at the highly regarded shakti cossacks school. Here 220. 00 young men are preparing for their military service. While those who go off and therefore pale the fly igs of the Russian Federation and the rest of regional jets go our core. In soviet times cossacks were oppressed after the iron curtain collapsed their culture began to flourish again and putin officially integrated them into the russian army this school is publicly funded but let me know i expect our president to hold the country together and ensure our welfare system missed any. Today is most important duty is the security of our country and one must see to it that there is peace in our nation because whats happening in our borders frightens us. Any
