Plus commemorating a little known episode of germanys nazi past today marks the 75th anniversary of the gestapo led raid on hamburgs Chinese Community to scars i have yet to feel. Im sumi so much god its good to have you with us u. S. Secretary of state mike pompei o has arrived in brussels where hes expected to discuss iran with European Partners the top u. S. Diplomat scrapped plans for a trip to moscow and made a surprise visit to the belgian capital at. You Foreign Ministers gathered for a meeting today the e. U. Is determined to Keep Iran Nuclear Deal Alive after washington withdrew from the pact and reimposed saying sions on tehran the u. S. Is urging the e. U. To walk away from the deal iran meanwhile asserting the e. U. To keep its promises to protect its oil and banking sectors from sanctions. Lets bring indeed have used teri schultz shes following the latest for us from brussels hi terry so my comp a. O. Has now arrived there what can we expect from his visit i dont even think mr pompei yet knows what he can expect from his visit he would very much like to see Foreign Policy chief federica mcgreevey who was you know the mediator of the iran deal he would also like to talk to the Foreign Ministers of britain france and germany the 3 european signatories to the nuclear deal but it is not at all clear minute by minute right now whether hell get to do that there in meetings right now their schedule is very tight its most likely that hell have bilateral meetings with some of these Foreign Ministers on the sidelines of the wider meeting but whats really important for for the europe is to talk to secretary pompei o about deescalating in the persian gulf right now with the u. S. Military buildup happening the British Foreign secretary said upon his arrival here that everyone is very worried about even an accidental escalation an accident that could then raise tensions beyond the ability to bring them back under control at the same time no one wants iran to get to go back towards enriching uranium toward a possible Nuclear Weapon so the stakes are very very high here and theres really no easy way for the European Union to navigate the situation as it stands right now you know terry the pressure is certainly on for the remaining signatories of this nuclear deal to really convince iran to stick to the agreement lets take a closer look. The e. U. s top diplomat meeting her counterparts in brussels in an attempt to salvage the Iran Nuclear Deal it has been and continues to be for us a key element of nonproliferation the nonproliferation of today. In the region so we continue to support it as much as we can with all our instruments and all our political will this is very well known i think both in washington and in. Under the 2050 nuclear deal around agreed to let the International Atomic Energy Agency monitor its Nuclear Facilities and enrich uranium only for civilian purposes in return economic sanctions on the country were lifted. The International Atomic Energy Agency says iran has been meeting its side of the bargain but the u. S. Withdrew from the deal last year and reinstated sanctions now iran is threatening to enrich its uranium closer to weapons grade levels. But if these countries return to the table within 60 days and we Reach Agreement on oil sales and banking then we will uphold our side of the nuclear deal more him. With Everything Else on the Table Including Upcoming European parliamentary elections that leaves little room for the block to maneuver. You know terry you touched on this already this really puts the European Union in a difficult position under pressure from both sides from the u. S. To scrap the steel from iran to protect it where does this all leave the European Union in its efforts to salvage the steel. Federica mo greeny and the Foreign Ministers of britain france and germany say unequivocally theyre still trying to keep the deal alive they believe as the u. S. Does that iran is a problematic presence in the region in some ways but they dont agree with washington that throwing out the nuclear deal is any way to handle the other problem so they want to keep the nuclear part intact and then possibly negotiate other things with iran thats looking less and less likely of course as tension rises with the military build up and so what the e. U. Wants to do right now is keep iran in the deal so that it doesnt have yet more problems that it doesnt see iran going back towards Nuclear Weapons and then give the United States even more reason to say that iran was not trustworthy youve also got federico leaving office as the e. U. Foreign policy chief this is her legacy she very much wants to hold on to it im not saying at all that this would be only for political reasons but it certainly is something she does not want to see fall apart it is a very important a very Important Pillar for European Security here in brussels all right teri schultz reporting for us there good to talk to you. Well as we heard from terry that meeting with pompei o comes as tensions between iran and the u. S. But also gulf nations are escalating fast saudi arabia has condemned an alleged sabotage attack against tankers in the gulf region as a dangerous threat to navigation and International Security the United Arab Emirates says that 4 commercial vessels were hit by sabotage attacks near the port city of gyre off its eastern coast the Saudi Energy Minister says 2 of the kingdoms oil tankers were among the targets the alleged incidents come as the u. S. Has warned that iran or its proxies could be targeting maritime traffic in the region iran has called for a probe into who is responsible. Lets get more on the story with marcus kahn hes a senior fellow at the German Institute for international and Security Affairs here in berlin marcus thanks for joining us hi we have heard now from the u. S. And also from a saudi arabia the United Arab Emirates arab emirates these claims of sabotage what is meant by that to be honest we dont know exactly. How far it is in saudi arabia talk about a severe attack Severe Damage more on no oil has spilled into the ball to some of the persian persian gulf you know people have been injured but what exactly happened and whos to blame we dont know exactly and i think its a no in coincidence but the origins of saudi arabia are carefully avoiding any blaming of our own so we dont really know what has happened at this time but we are hearing both sides pointing the finger at each other i mean how what are we going to find out more information about what actually happened in these waters we have to wait because maybe a couple of hours or a couple of days until they sort of earth for it is revealed what has really happened but they have to be able to be where its when its the revealed the details you possibly have to blame iran as well he creates tensions and so far as far as i can see the saudi authorities are a little bit reluctant unlike the united. Increased tensions in the region you mentioned the United States and there is a military dimension to this the u. S. Has deployed an Aircraft Carrier bombers and assault ship to the region already previous to this incident do you see that as a provocation an escalation of the tensions that you mentioned are rising to a certain degree of pink the deployment of the carrot group was already scheduled for a couple of weeks and or even months so its no surprise i think we should take seriously the you know its one of my computer flats we have the have some intelligence that this is around is preparing the british takes on symmetric attacks maybe not. Against the United States forces as such but maybe you know knowing what the hizbullah in syria with the revolutionary guards and in iraq with or any militia you know where is this intelligence coming from that were seeing the u. S. Warning of the dangers to commercial vessels traveling the waters in this region we dont know i think its a u. S. Intelligence but we do not have the sources how significant do you think all of this is marcus if we take a look at the big big picture here were seeing this ask elating rhetoric are there concerns about this coming to an actual conflict i think so and in its interesting from and this is all politics so far the u. S. Administration from a very careful you want to tangle month in the middle east exactly the opposite was part of the general withdrawal going on in the states from the borders of the middle east withdrawing from syria withdrawing from iraq and now for the 1st time we see littering hed been on top of the political leg.

Oh voters in the philippines have been casting their ballots in midterm elections the vote is considered a referendum on president rodrigue auteur territory and his controversial policies including his war and drugs the most crucial races for half the seats in the 24 Member Senate which to turn to is expected to fill with political allies the opportune brous considered a check on to terrorist political dominance a Senate Majority could allow him to restore the Death Penalty and change the constitution. Lets bring in richard had darrien hes the author of a book on the silicon later called rise of detector hes also a political scientist in manila which are thank you for joining us so just how important are these elections forward. Well again in the philippines. After that if america there are elections in a way a referendum on the various presidency i mean you run into does a scene on the populist agenda of presenting it. Out as a counter establishment candidates to make sure. The crime and drugs from the philippines through your skin the question whether theyre going to reaffirm. That he has not done enough or has been just and. Are going to reject it going to affirm it and so far its based on the surveys this is going to be a resounding victory for president to tear it to least. In these elections there are 18000 elected offices up for grabs that what really everyone is watching for is whats going to happen. Again based on the latest survey its probable that the. Get at least 8 out of 12. But its also possible that they get out of the. Tree all the independents and then the opposition might get. Out of the way that will be the most lopsided election instability and that may just not only the majority. That he needs in order to push for constitutional change. For generations to come and weve just majority. Death penalty. Created by the age down to 9 years old. By the previous. Very few bastions of independence in the philippines. Really is a lot at stake as you mentioned he took office 3 years ago. And his war on drugs been very controversial lets take a closer look now. In his inaugural address roderigo to territory vowed to wage war against drug dealers and users a wave of extra judicial killings followed with sauza of executions in the years since it was blunt when he discussed the policy. Of. Hitler massacred 3000000 jews. We have 3000000. 00 drug addicts it would be a pleasure to slaughter them. But weve got people. That brutal talk spurred International Condemnation but seem to india him to other rule breaking populist politicians. Have agreed to make you concede. That 1. 2 territory even serenaded us president donald trump. But even as he embraced the us president to tear to announced a realignment towards china and russia. Allergic to criticism to territory has denounced and even defunded human rights organizations who have slammed his policies hes put journalists and press freedom groups on his enemies list. But despite the popular appeal of his law and order rhetoric its bread and butter issues that maybe do terror to his greatest liability in these elections what is this a side of. Your life that is not there we just look at the walking but the shirt and. The like a lot. Of these regular robbies disobeying what is going to still do terror to his grip on power seems secure and with a one term limit in place on his presidency hes widely seen as grooming his daughter sara to take the reins after the next president ial vote in 2022 to ensure his legs. So richard we heard there it seems like were going to territories grip on power is secure at this point the polls have closed in these elections how free and fair have they. Well the good news is that there have not been major pieces of widespread violence i mean including the fact that we have traditionally tens of thousands of People Killed during the 3rd this drug war these are actually additional killings but 1st some reason there have been very few incidents of violence ive the same thing of course authorities in the philippines the Commission Election has raised insert over massive vote by piece is a big problem and of course some technical problems we did Voting Machines and not to mention one major electoral watchdog which has been to rosss 983 also the not partner with the Commission Election because of concerns over credibility of the partnership so theyre going to be some shadow of doubt about the results of this election especially if the opposition gets no seats for a journalist and author richard had diarrhea and speaking to us thank you so much for your insights now today marks the 75th anniversary of a little known chapter in nazi germanys history against apple led raid on hamburg Chinese Community the raid on may 13th 1904 led to a number of arrests and eventually the deaths of more than a dozen chinese residents after the war the German Government never compensated the victims or their descendants but some are trying to ensure that their story is not forgotten. Or that 77 mariota solti is one of the oldest bar owners and some to polly pembrokes notorious red light district. Few customers realize that her hong kong bar is a piece of german chinese history in the 1920. 00 s. Hundreds of chinese sailors employed in the German Merchant Navy settled in hamburg they opened up shops and restaurants establishing germanys 1st and only chinatown in the citys lively entertainment district. The bar opened by marriott his father was also a restaurant if i leave and i naturally had a zest for life i felt at home here he had german friends and if he knew someone was down and out hed let them die and free of charge. But the chinese communities peaceful coexistence ended with the rise of the nazis who branded unions between chinese men and german women as race defilement. The persecution intensified in may 1904 with the gestapo raid known as the chinese action historian lars amanda has documented the brutality used by the police and the gestapo during the operation. Because im going though ive been a total 129. 00 men were arrested and beaten as they were taken to this Police Station from here they were transferred to the gestapo prison at foods booth where they were held for months. And 17 chinese prisoners died his father survived but he never received compensation after the war the german Restitution Office classified the chinese action as a routine Police Operation lars amanda calls that a mistake as this is the surviving documentation shows very clearly that gestapo offices saw themselves as some kind of racial warriors who get to extend the nazis policies of racial purity to hamburgs resident chinese population. Maria to has come to terms with germanys refusal to compensate her father. Today its the resurgence of the far right that shes worried about. It makes me furious that people have learned nothing from history on the contrary history is repeating itself a completely generation should be making sure that the Younger Generation knows what really happened so it never happens again. Mario to speak openly about her familys past so that the story of her father and how lost chinatown conserve is a cautionary tale for future generations for it was a dramatic weekend in european football and a limo her talking from sports is here to tell us all about haile well lets start in england with the premier League Manchester city clinching the premier league stated i mean look at those famous look at all those happy faces you know they retain the title and therefore theyre the 1st team to do so since 2009 and the last side who did that also came from the same city and that was Manchester United in 2009 and this has been one of the tightest premier league precess in ages and you know fans of course in manchester completely ecstatic completely over the moon after Manchester City a new back home after beating brighton 41 and of course they also at the privilege of celebrating with their hometown band always you know who are also big supporters of Manchester City but you know what a shout out to live a pool despite winning to know against forbes it just wasnt enough i mean city end up with 98. 00 points just one more then and then give a poor of course liverpool on the plus side still have the champions sneak to play for but if it went for city this title would have belonged to liverpool and cup of course is still really really proud of his boys lets take a listen 97. 00 points is incredible and only because city is that its not enough each other country it would have been easy lead. But so theres no problem with that thats the competition we have in other competition both good years ago 20 years ago 10 years ago thats completely different. Definitely something to be proud of saying were a what about the bundesliga thats the last major European Competition to still be decided that yes surprisingly it is i mean all other top european leagues have been decided except for the witness league and that doesnt happen very often so we have by in munich on 75 points dots just 2 more than daughter and neither side will have it easy at all because theres so much to play for just look how tight and how close all those european spots are by an unique crease frankfurt by an unique need to win in order to secure the title frankfurt of course in place numbers 6 and they want a european spot so they also need to win that theres so much to play for and its a very similar scenario when you look at dortmund against black daughter and of course have to win hopefully by in munich to lose in order to win the title but theyre up against black who want to solidify that Champions League spot who dont want to budge from 4th place so this weekend its going to be a blockbuster it is must see t. V. A lot of moving. What about frankfurt you mentioned that they are desperate to win against bahrain and the loss of the weekend to nil against mines whats going on there it is its almost like a fairy tale season might really end up in a nightmare and you know if youre frankfurt of course you dont want to look back you dont want to regret what you could have caught and that is either Champions League or youve opened football obviously you can tell just by the footage that they were very exhausted especially after that came for a penalty shoot out loss to chelsea in the Europa League and the european dreams you know took a blow on sunday when they lost against minds to never so for frankfurt they need to dig deep on the final day but like you said its not going to be easy and i am going to write only with the talking from thanks for bringing us up to date.
