u n sarajevo to close a migrant camp built on the site of a former ravaged. welcome to the program the leader of germany's ruling christian democrats has delivered a stock message to her party back me or sack me as the cd you began its annual conference in eastern city of leipzig an exact copy catamount told party member she was prepared to quit if they didn't back is crap about took over from the chance of i'm going to mikala c.d.u. leave that last year the process population popularity has plunged and i had leadership that i must use in general elections it's about a challenge to her critics some potential replacements to decide whether she should be the one who led the party. when you hear them i know it says if you feel that the kind of germany that i have outlined today is not the kind of germany that you are looking at if you feel that the road that i want to go down is not the road that you want to follow then let us talk about that today and let us ended today and now today. the before and in of. their mindset if you feel that this is the kind of germany one that we should jointly follow this road if you feel the same desire to take responsibility and to shape things then let us roll up our sleeves here and now today let's get going here. and unfun. straight to the seaview conference in life we find it a big chief political adviser i welcome it if anyone is likely to take up a. challenge. you know she certainly court of law for her critics and there's no sign that any of the party critics from the very hard line conservative camp will really step up to the brink here and cause what would be seen as a social democrat style leadership crisis delegates here clearly don't have an appetite for that and we also heard from her contender whom she beat a year ago and became party leader. he was expected to potentially launched a counterattack let's listen in to what he said instead. doctors don't want that is the difference between us and the social democrats the social democrats are inherently disloyal and we are loyal. to our party leadership. on trouble in the family to the federal government which we have been a part of for a total of more than 50 years and those were good years for germany so that was. tried to become leader last year and failed so what does he want now. well he wants to be part of the future still this was a remarkable change of tone from just a couple of weeks ago when he basically said that the government the c.d.u. led government i'm going to macro was doing a very bad job indeed now he's calling for your loyalty and he sent us another of his grand gestures from the stage behind me by saying yes he wants to be part of this but once again like a year ago owing the party a concrete answer of where he would see his role percy quite clearly he sees himself as future chancellor candidate of the c.d.u. and that still is the big question mark here will you now join forces with compound bow and leadership blind or will he once again try and launch his bid to be seen as the man who could take the party forward come the next election scheduled for in 2 years' time so no stand off here today but the leadership question is quite off the cards ok so the fuck is a shoo in for any political party is never a good thing just to see you distance the cd you regard this issue as settled is it important for them to draw a line under this. i do think that this party is ready to completely draw a line under this until they have a clear answer from actually several other candidates who see themselves also potentially succeeding and america in the chancery if once again the c.d.u. one in the elections but that's all but certain because there's a downward trend also here in this conservative big tent party in germany not as bad as the social democrat coalition partner who's doing very badly indeed who's a bit of a mess but certainly and it will have to prove of the coming months that she can turn this trend if she does it will be off the table if she doesn't she might just be another couple of months off from the next leadership challenge. the c.d.u. party coffers in leipzig fact. so we'll take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world at least 3 iraqi protestors have been killed and 25 injured in clashes with security forces in the capital baghdad more than 340 people have died since protests against widespread corruption and unemployment broke out in baghdad and southern iraq. and to government protesters in lebanon have marked 76 years of independence by organizing a parade in the capital beirut replacing the usual military show the country's big gripped by protests since the mid october and demands for the removal of politicians deemed inept and corrupt. police and protesters have clashed during rallies in the colombian capital. tens of thousands of demonstrators opposed to present it to k. have been calling for greater economic inequality and expressed concerns about plans raised the pension age know the minimum wage of thoughts to be being considered. now as the u.k. prepares for following entry elections next month the fears of russian meddling have been reignited this week evidence of much thinking the prime minister barak's johnson to a russian oligarch the guardian newspaper reported that mr johnson met russian billionaire and former k.g.b. officer alexander lebedev in april last year at a party organized by mr lebedev son until recently alexander lebedev had denied the meeting took place and now the oligarchy is further distance himself from the prime minister rejecting accusations that he has contributed to the conservative party in any way. has been to meet him in moscow. alexander lebedev likes being in the spotlight he used to be a secret service officer today he's one of russia's richest businessmen in a restaurant in moscow is launching his new book in its he denounces the corruption of the russian elite. but the multi-millionaire is making headlines for another reason his supposed interference in british politics. are your friends with boris johnson are not friends with him but i know him maybe zhenya is friends with him. genya is labor day son evgeny. he played host to british prime minister boris johnson then the foreign minister at his villa in italy. when was the last time you met boris johnson. 2 or 3 years ago but i think in total have met him more than 10 times. we want to know more about a party at your italian villa. as it was of guineas birthday but i myself didn't see johnson there he was tired and just relaxing what do you want me to say that i saw him or not either way i did not talk to him and your son when was the last time he saw johnson that he was i don't know ask him yourself they've been friends for years did your son contribute money to the conservatives. i don't know anything about that it owns newspapers that could theoretically influence people but i doubt he's done that british journalists are hard to influence i'm sure my son didn't turn out money to the conservative old labor party or anyone else for that matter. government issues or the region what about you do you kidding i can't afford to do that. so where are these suspicions coming from. this is fake news written by the guardian they want to compromise boris or the coal bin can become the next prime minister of course with a little help from the k.g.b. . the british media is convinced that labor day have supported boris johnson and his party they point to a parliamentary investigation whose results should have been published 3 weeks ago . let's just wait until the results are official to manage their published immediately i want to know exactly what was written before i comment on it it's. the british government has pushed back publication by a month. now the controversial report is set to come out in december. let's go through some of those for instance the quentin peel is a journalist an analyst with the international affairs think tank at chatham house it was from london welcome to day w this report the british government claims it has not been withheld but is being subjected to the usual security checks and clearances what's your view on that. but it's a question that's official excuse everybody really who's ever been involved in reports like this said they need no more than a week to sign it off and they've taken a great deal longer so there is a suspicion that holding it back the question is why because it's not clear that there's any benny damning evidence about russian interference in the elections there's just i think a lot of circumstantial evidence that there has been quite a lot smoother russian interest in british elections and possibly certainly finance and social media interference over the recent years there have been some names bandied about as to who have some of the russian side might be a nice in this dossier how much influence do they have on british politics it's very difficult to say i think they can teach a russian electrical interference is. to say confusion and. dissent if you like to encourage anybody who might undermine confidence in the system. and that's. close together don't just move russian actors on social media russian troubles and say oh well say very much the 3 times to get on russia today television is picking up all the stories that might suggest that there is mistrust in the system that there's actually corruption around so i'm not sure it's direct corruption that's selling american confusion which seems to indicate that you think that they are acting in concert with the russian government. yes. it's that apparently people named to the republican status to the conservative party some of them well known pendants of let it be uprooted i mean alexander lebedev who you would to just know has frequently been on the opposite side to putin. as another man who's going more than a 1000000 pounds to the conservatives in britain and xander 10 minutes ago not clear yet whether he's a sort of pretty routine man or not because he was none close associate of make out going to come ski who was president general by pugin 10 yes. and i think that's the problem with russian money you don't know where it's come from you don't know if it's green and there's obviously quite a lot of it's about london the stock exchange in london property plenty of britain is in the main stuff and the election campaign at the moment how damaging is this to anyone. the extraordinary thing about barry's transcend is he seems to get away with loving off any scandals or too little i mean the interesting thing about johnson's connection with the letter of the family with the opinion that it ever alexander's son is that he was certainly see parties as the negative villa in italy but it wasn't so much that he appeared to be giving me or anything he just appeared to be having a rocket better time. he was the foreign secretary at the time and he refused to take along his security detail so we're going through these things seem to just be like. to bars johnson it doesn't seem to damage and he has a reputation as a bit of a philanderer a bit of a joke and not a race very straight with the truth and yet sometimes people say oh well that's just bogus jobs for talking to thank you for joining us quentin chatham house. the world health organization is warning that 4 out of 5 of the world's teenagers are not getting enough exercise lack of physical activity has been linked to a range of debilitating health conditions including obesity depression and heart disease experts that are warning that young people need to get up get out and get moving. and hour a day of or any other physical activity that's the standard recommendation for adolescents it doesn't sound like much but the world health organization says most school age boys and girls do not reach this mark and it's affecting their physical and mental well being the finding is not unique to a particular region globally goals were found to be less active with 85 percent of them failing to meet the recommendation compared with 78 percent of boys a lot of the physical activity promotion is more tailored towards boyce so. just to do maybe also provide a solution to that. it would be really important when countries or communities or schools plain for solutions to involve adolescent girls children are increasingly indoors mostly seated and staring at screens or even focused on their studies but sometimes they're not physically active because of a lack of options security also seems to be a bit of an issue that young people maybe take a safe enough to be outside running or walking in parks places where we've gotten to be more active. in design hasn't really encouraged walking and cycling and that road traffic congestion is also forcing people off the people off the street the researchers say that being active is good for the developing brain so they're urging policymakers and adolescents to pull up their socks and make exercise a priority. last year as winter approaches concerns being raised about living conditions for migrants trying to beach the e.u. bosnia is a particular example more than 8000 migrants are stranded there mostly in the country's northwest hoping to enter the a you via neighboring croatia this week u.s. officials repeated their call for the company at bay hatch to close to avoid the worsening of an already die humanitarian situation the w.'s frank has been to vote check to see for himself. water is only delivered here once a day by tanker. the hi janet conditions are catastrophic since last summer some 600 migrants mostly from pakistan and afghanistan have settled in camp. from a rubbish dump in northwestern poss near. the local red cross is helping with basic necessities but for half a year now the local authorities have been bringing migrants here from the city of 8 kilometers away against the advice of the un and international aid organisations everyone is. just. 5 months. of a. neighboring creation just a few kilometers beyond these mountains micron's try to cross into the e.u. here many are presented and sent back by creation police soon temperatures are expected to drop winter is particularly severe in this mountainous part of bosnia as is becoming clear to the camp's residents. that's an appalling conditions you know people saying that even without despite the danger no one in other parts of boston wants to take these people in. this is what aid workers believe to be one of the most dangerous migrant camps in europe at the moment doctors report cases of scary bees and other serious diseases but still local authorities don't want to close the camp they want to keep up pressure in other regions and the government in sarajevo to open a different collective center elsewhere in the country. for the last 2 years more and more if you chase have reshaped one of bosnia's largest cities more than 5000 of them now live here in the northwest and more arrive every day the mayor of the hutch is demanding a long term solution. camp must remain permanently open of course we could send the migrants from elsewhere but the migrant crisis as a whole has not been solved if the authorities want to transfer them elsewhere we've got no problem with taking them to sario. on the outskirts of. international organisation for migration runs a refugee camp for up to 2000 people in a form effect rebuilding but the local authorities are opposed to more migrants being accommodated here the un has been negotiating for months to open more refugee camps in the country it's not difficult to imagine what will happen if you have 2300 people more living in the streets when it gets cold these people be forced to find solutions and water dissolutions is going into public buildings going to shopping malls going into abandoned houses maybe stealing food all these type of negative coping. behavior will manifest itself people continue to arrive with winter on its way without a viable solution for the residents of the camp migration crisis continues to escalate. that report was produced by the double correspondent frank hoffman who joins me now welcome from. tell us give us an idea then about the conditions in virginia tech can't they look pretty dismal if not horrifying i saw people that had no proper shoes warm clothes missing and just double checked the weather full cost again there's rain expected next week followed by a dump of temperatures to phrasing you can imagine what that means under such conditions are living in tents there the red cross is trying to help in the local red cross but they even have a lack they are electing proper. goods probably food that was german truck transport coming delivering 30 tons this week and it was already the 4th this year so the local structures are welcome but situation. aid was being provided by the german government. to solve the migrants while they're in bosnia in particular for the local red cross structures. so why doesn't the bosnian government just say all right well we'll move it it's a weak governments you have to remember what happened after the war in bosnia that ended in december 1905 the dayton peace agreement was brought there which is today the constitution of this country and this constitution says the 2 entities the boston crowd federation that is divided in several cantons one of them is north west and boss know where these refugees are and these migrants are living a moment because it's the closest way. to other european countries like savina for example crossing through through your country creations so they want to clip be closed it's a lay they want to be close to slovenia to and to north in europe this is why they are there in the same time there's not real so that every day in last night self again a weak central government you have a boss that one entity divided into cantons and up and with every country has a has a prime minister and imagine a prime minister is telling to his electorate oh. i'm ok with having another collective center here in a canton right so the people of b. hatch do seem to. being quite supportive of of the migrants there is that our there is there any side of that changing 1st of all they one has to be fair head the people there they have on their own a refugee history jane because of the bosnian war and people really remember this when this crisis started about 2 years ago when people started to come from serbia and to try this path and this route into into the european union but after 2 years in a country that is one of the poorest in all of europe i think that we that times are shifting at the moment and you talk about it started but with about 200 migrants 2 years ago in all of the regional probably more than 5000 now and of course they are sense of what about the other parts of the country why isn't there more solidarity and more planning to cope this my can crisis in this country frank kaufmann very interesting thank you for joining us thanks for having me. how do you transform a problematic plastic waste into a floating paradise well a start up on the ivory coast has a turn depressing environmental problem into a business opportunity proving that one man's trash is another man's treasure. a treasure island but not as you know it this floating paradise parks not with gold plastic. 700000 pieces of these bottles are bringing buoyancy. it's the creation of this french entrepreneur who wanted a way to turn waste into one. i was studying here and people from the merino were all on the edge and so that's how i discovered the lagoon and its advantages and its disadvantages such as the pollution. and so little by little my idea of building a travel boat turned into how to build a system a village corner by using the pollution in the lagoon. the drums. and. the resulting entertainment resorts has become a draw for curious locals until last. for $25.00 guests can spend a day on the island dancing eating drinking swimming and even sleeping. that for many. of them it's really innovative ecologically it was something that was really worth thinking about and it's the place to be sometimes because it proves that nothing is wasted nothing gained everything can be preserved so they did something really innovative and i had to come and see for myself that this is different it's a world away from the sea of plastic that surrounds it becker and his team do what they can to clean up the shores here and hopes his idea will encourage others to recycle. he admits his efforts alone are just a drop in the lagoon. a surfing makes its debut at the olympic games in tokyo. some of it's even caught on in cold or regions like hearing surfing infuse us in the german capital cannot ride
