Only a hawk thank you very much for your company we start in me and maher that countrys army says its soldiers summarily executed ten range of muslims in september referring to those killed as terrorists is the first public admission of wrongdoing by the military since it began a crackdown on ethnic ranges last august the admission appears in a statement on the Facebook Page of the militarys commander in chief well more than six hundred thousand have fled their homes into neighboring bangladesh by the violence that broke out in ricky in state meanwhile prosecutors in me and maher have charged two reporters from the Reuters News Agency with violating the countrys official secrets act despite Widespread International condemnation the pair say they were trying to report the truth about the militarys crackdown on revenge of muslims. Journalist while managed to smile as the soldiers paraded him outside the courthouse but he and colleague. Seen here in a gray shirt facing serious charges prosecutors allege they collected secret documents related to the military situation retain state but according to while on the actually in jail for trying to tell the truth about whats happening in a cane. This is unacceptable i want to tell you that they are charging us like this to stop us finding the truth their actions are wrong and unfair. To a bevy where youve got youve got a few journalists ventured into wrecking state since last summer theys a ray images of what the United Nations coast the textbook ethnic cleansing going on there they should burning writing give villages and locals fleeing the violence. The me and my army strictly controls access to regain state it is allowed few journalists in and and the under the conditions it sets the reuters journalists say they were there to report ethically and truthfully but they were arrested under the old laws on secrecy after visiting retain their families have been devastated by the arrests they convinced their loved ones in the send. Every minute to get out he told me not to worry because he didnt do anything wrong. He voted for this government so to get i know he strongly believes that he will be released soon. I hope that also only and it will never get up early in my lifetime and to sit in on the jailing of the road his journalist has caused an outcry both inside and outside me and my colleagues gathered outside court the fear among many myanmar is stepping up its crackdown on those who try to report a grave humanitarian crisis. Well we can take you to me in mar now to David Greenbaum he is covering the story for d. W. News and young gone a day how significant is this admission by myanmars military the fact that they were involved in the deaths of those ten never enjoy muslims yeah i mean its kind of like theyre trying theyre trying to play it on two sides here theyre egg knowledge ng that these people were killed by the military and theyre saying that theres a good missions of murder between Security Forces and villagers are not quite we clear who did what against these are row hinges but theyre also saying that these were hinges that were terrorists who had threatened lucas so. It doesnt hold up a strong with the other argument that theyve been making where theres absolutely zero wrongdoing where theyve been making the thing that for months. But. There again trying to qualify it by saying that theyre that these people were dangerous so. You know down rather than it really comes down to what other evidence might be coming out over time and these two reuters reporters who you were just reporting on its been widely reported for weeks that they were looking into this mass grave and we really dont know what kind of evidence those two journals have turned up so you think this admission might have something to do with them uncovering something can we expect the army to admit to more wrongdoings. I mean i think whats good thats really hard to say because of course weve got so many row hinges who fled in the bangladesh more than six hundred thousand and a period of months and so many of them are coming across the board of these arifin horrific accounts of mass murder gang rape weve got Satellite Photos of villages that are brought into villages that have been burned to the ground on the flip side the military has locked out largely locked out locked down northerner kind where the security crackdown has been going on so you want investigators cannot get in journalist cannot get them except on a few heavily supervised. Trips where they take it they watch where you go and they have you can really limit your access so its really hard to say what were going to be able to be able to turn up of course there are so many people trying to get you know were trying to get information through other routes but thats much more time consuming and much more difficult to get to the facts its really hard to see whats going to come out but the strong evidence coming out otherwise thats why even the u. N. Called of ethnic cleansing right ok so the documenting of these possible human rights abuses will be very challenging i want to shift our focus back to these two reuters journalists said that are being charged under me in mars official secrets act this admission by the army what effect will it have on them. You know its really hard to say right now because certainly what what what what what what so many journalists here are saying is that they believe the local journalists here that they believe that theyre trying to make an example that the government the military is trying to make an example of these two trying war and local journalists dont dig deep in the work i dont do anything that would go against our narrative meaning the militarys narrative this or there could be repercussions. On the flip side there its not making this countrys transition look good at all and makin affect Foreign Investment and clearly the military doesnt want the Foreign Investment to stop. So and theyre getting such brad press and such bad publicity and keep in mind this is really a political case the courts here are only independent in name when you talk to people whove studied this court system for years they will tell you that its only independent in name that im cases that are sensitive to the military notes will get handed down through a chain that will eventually tell the judge how to handle it i really challenging situation that you to pick their day for a grim reporting from yangon thank you all right now i want to tell you about some of the other stories making news around the world. So you go now to south koreas president at noon today and has said he is willing to meet his north korean counterpart under certain conditions on the moon said the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula would be his goal in any talks with the north his comments come a day after the first high level talks between north and south korea in over two years. Two senior british officials have urged germany to support a deal protecting londons finance sector after brags that they used the negotiator has ruled out colluding such a deal in future in future talks on trade with britain while germanys government spokesman meanwhile said brit arlin does not intend to break ranks with the e. U. On this issue. There has been some relief for the roughly thirty thousand tourists trapped in the swiss ski resort of their mob due to have a snowfall trains have resumed Service Today after being cut off for two days helicopter airlifts ongoing. A long day ahead and a lot of work to do those were the only commons made by politicians as they arrived this morning to begin day four of exploratory talks about forming a new Coalition Government here in germany the parties have agreed not to brief the press for fear of scuppering any deal america holds the conservatives and the center left social democrats have set themselves a deadline of tomorrow to phone to find out if they have enough Common Ground to Start Formal Coalition talks. Day four of the exploratory talks between chancellor merkels conservatives and the social democrats but much remains unclear the parties have agreed on a news blackout so information about any breakthroughs is scarce us or any statements by party leaders. And ourselves not unlike our i suppose this is going to be a long day so first of all good morning for all of you and i hope that we will make some progress today because you are the talks are scheduled to run until thursday night on friday the two sites then announce whether they intend to launch a full Coalition Negotiations however the s. P. D. Will also have to seek the backing of its rank and file Party Conference in bonn on january the twenty first at an earlier Party Conference in december delegates had already voted in favor of the current exploratory talks if the Party Conference backs full Coalition Talks the conservatives and social democrats then start a fresh round of negotiations which could take several weeks just like four years ago the social democrats will vent put the final agreement to the entire membership back in twenty thirteen they followed the Party Leadership recommendation to enter a coalition with Angela Merkels conservatives so there are still a few or knowns before germany has a new government. Are all of the party is a ring at the talks and joins us now from our parliamentary studios in berlin charlotte there saying in part in these Coalition Talks or staying very tight lipped about the progress of these negotiations what are you hearing through the grapevine how likely is it that well have an agreement by tomorrows deadline. I think its very likely that well see an agreement by tomorrows deadline by thursday night or maybe in the Early Morning hours heading into friday the every part of all the both parties see their responsibility at this point that they have to form or at least try to form a new government and the politicians taking part the leadership of both parties they would just lose their credibility if they didnt get some kind of final result through in these exploratory talks and they have agreed on quite a few issues for example on some climate issues also on the topic of immigration there is supposed to be a new Immigration Law for skilled workers but as we just heard the tricky part really starts afterwards because Martin Schultz the leader of the social democrats has to sell the results to his party base and the grassroots is not happy about the idea of a continuation of those grand coalition we will see a Party Convention of the social democrats the delegates will have to vote there if whether to start a new Coalition Talks then we will see Coalition Talks with the christian democrats and then the social Democratic Party base is going to vote on those results so its going to be some weeks before germany will in fact if these talks are successful see a new government all right i dont want to put any words in your mouth shut up or go doesnt sound very encouraging. Well its not going to be like both parties are painting a vision for germany for what they want to change in the next four years thats going to be a rather pragmatic thing its not going to be a very euphoric new grand coalition that we are going to see if these talks are successful and its really rather a forced marriage then you know a coalition that is painting a painting a vision for the next four years but they have reached agreements on quite a few issues and well see. Tomorrow night if they are acts least seeing that through if they come to a positive conclusion of these talks pots reporting thank you.
