Declaration of independence or else tonight spain steering towards yet another dreaded. This is the day. A lot of. Other the deliberate confusion generated over whether the declaration will be enacted. The cabinet has agreed this morning to require formally to the catalan government. To confirm whether it has declared independence or not. I am and always have been to believe in dialogue as a way of resolving conflicts. With what we can even consider a reform of the constitution if it is not an eternal. Low bidder no i meant that there is no possible mediation between democratic law and defiance or illegality of responsibility but the only ones responsible for those who were obsessed with carrying out this action and knowing it was absolutely violently absolute that many. Also coming up with the hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein is reportedly now here in europe for sex addiction rehab evades is more accusations of Sexual Harassment in a statement he imply that all sexual encounters have been consensual yet what happens watching say that to my face how many. Would happily stand in a courtroom and testicles. Happily. And we begin the day with the Spanish Governments plans to prevent the country from breaking up watch the clock and watch the catalogs at the same time today spanish Prime Minister roy said yesterdays declaration of independence by catalonia as president was and remains illegal he gave the catalonian leader five days to explain himself a window of opportunity just like yesterdays immediate delay of catalonia independence declaration tonight two leaders staring each other down both claiming to have the will of the people and the legitimacy of a constitution on their side to constitutions yes two peoples or that point will not be decided in five days look to in a standoff spains Prime Minister is determined to not give an inch speaking to parliament in madrid Mariano Rajoy again insisted its catalonia his independence referendum was illegal and he rejected the office of international mediation. The. It is not possible to accept a dialogue to agree on what is expressly forbidden by the constitution to negotiate over the sovereignty that belongs to all spaniards and the unbreakable unity of spain. It was a clear abuse to catalan president pushed him all these calls for talks have repeatedly been rejected madrid has given him five days to draw up catalonia his independence bid. This important day. It is really important those people who violated the constitution rectify this. Is catalonia ignores the warning has threatened to impose direct rule many catalan lawmakers reacted with pleas for the escalation of the name of. The truth is we have two government leaders who have acted very irresponsibly we are asking them to take on the political responsibility and govern for everyone in spain and catalonia we ask that they are responsible and courageous and open the possibility of dialogue. It all means days more uncertainty on the streets of barcelona people are frustrated. Its ridiculous to reach this point because we the people pay for the politicians and its their focus theyve passed problems on to the people when they should have solved them. Even though its impossible to talk with i dont know whats going to happen nobody does. Now the bill is back in catalonia as cool it and across spain the waiting game continues. To get some analysis of this im joined now by francisco they lost it us he heads the Madrid Office of the European Council on Foreign Relations he is currently traveling on business and he joins us tonight from the serbian capital bill great francisco is going to have you on the day marianna roy today repeatedly labeled the independence referendum in catalonia and yesterdays independence move both illegal i mean is he right it makes the cattle on parliament sound like a rogue state in waiting. Well i mean the holidays not only begin as a person though theyre going to cause pain but. Hes also speaking in a way. That got an opposition to it just a month ago when these socalled disconnection laws were rammed through basically left the parliament so that picture nobodys of catalonia as us in my and t. And the Parliament Issue that these laws were passed contravening parliamentary rules and ive got the loneliest instead of autonomy which needs two thirds of of. M. P. s for beginning its amendment their rule in looking at the lonia which favors secession of some form of secession doesnt have this number show this is where these specific point of the crisis started now the whole east move today was rather shrewd because he following in you know after liberation in the band thats light not affected he send a similar message like they could invoke article one hundred fifty five of the constitution which good until a number of restrictive measures of cut along also tanami and not immediately and he says can push them on to clarify while in parliament he made pleas for dialogue and that we are open to to constitutional reform not everything but everything within the rule of law so no certainly the ball is back in the months court but we we still come to the point which would you just mentioned that the cattle on parliament and that government they did not have the required percentage of the required majority for a referendum to be valid right so the argument that the referendum is illegal or is or is not valid that argument stands doesnt. Yeah thats thats its important to understand that because this socalled referendum loss. And that it followed this decision of the got an environment that i mentioned where by if there was more votes and they were in the those that are against it in the media the question of in the business will follow should so so this is why you know really the Spanish Government tried to. Successfully to to prevent the referring them and push him when hes claiming that the majority of the people in qatar only. Want in the bend as this is in a way in my opinion the big you know the pronoun because its very unclear that it is so much or at the end we will need upper upper referendum that is not coming anytime soon so there are a plain number of friend them for now on their connection of independence which they they want to follow should so this is what this will come a little bit grotesque libertad is a good way a non referendum for a non independence. Or not declaration of independence when i listen to you describing the relations right now between madrid and barcelona and it reminds me of what we have come to know in the u. S. Congress in washington d. C. Especially within the Republican Party this inability to get beyond grievances to compromise and Work Together is that what we are seeing right now in spain. Well i think this is this is a very fitting comparison you make a rather rather dumb arcelor much riedel theres obviously that because you have two governments claim in different majorities it is appropriate to begin with in catalonia or the like i said theres a big fracture and although many people want to different status many dont want independence that youve seen them marching in barcelona last sunday so we have. A clash of if you will parliamentary majority a little bit like that shes people now with relish that the more risky and equal rights any sorts an ornament that i want to have where it relates to the u. S. Or even to brics it is that these specific brand of suspicion is and is not the traditional. The land these or cut the nationalism the whole varies very skillfully show no study of ford today in parliament which was so important for the governance of spain because the suspicion is some. Its a little bit again like the tea party in the Republican Party and the waitress all it takes and this is a very fitting comparison its not the traditional gotten on nationalism it some more maxime elise the kind of politics if i may. Before we run out of time what would be your advice then to mr roy could he go to barcelona and stand in public with the cattle on president and say we are unified weve come to find Common Ground we want to maintain unity would be that simple to just get rid of this crisis. Yeah i mean i think i think in one thousand and percent of the spanners along this crisis to be to be zero or. Any now we deem it is that we seem to be in the Spanish Parliament one. Proposal that will move forthright commission on truth or affirm i gotta lonia and the fact raisa invitation for someone to come to the Spanish Parliament present its proposal and and discuss of course of course we have mechanisms but it is sure that the difference here is that i personally believe in this to be within our within our agreements even exists to change them or rather dont change in them to suit your own political approaches but constitutional reform good diffidently help and we are really hoping that that this is the way forward but at this point it does require as that gotten on vittorio today for a moment due to go back to september five Francisco Dibble hot last at us with the Madrid Office of the European Council on Foreign Relations francisco thank you very much for your insights and for taking the time to be on the day. Of the trial of a german journalist in turkey has been adjourned until december the court ruled however that mr olive tolu must remain in custody until a verdict is reached total who has been in turkish detention since april and is accused of involvement in terrorist propaganda prosecutors say she attended events organized by the extreme left party the ilk e. P. Which is designated as a terrorist group in turkey totally maintains her innocence shes one of eleven german nationals probably detained in turkey. Of morning i want to bring in christiane mir he is the director of Reporters Without Borders here in germany comes down its good to see you again your colleagues were monitoring that hearing is stamboul from your point of view is misawa who is getting a fair trial at all no i think shes not getting a fair trial and its not really a surprise from what we know from other trials what our colleagues observed today in his temple is actually that the prosecutor to didnt introduce any new evidence regarding the accusation misha total is confronted with indies are basically two accusations one is that she has been working for a town use agency which is not forbidden to go but just blocked it but just blocked a website and a segment accuse ation is that she is a second to accusation is that she would have participated in if you are all having translated terror and this is for as a prosecutor an explanation to a she would be a member of a terrorist organization and providing terrorist propaganda and so two days a persecutor didnt enter any new evidence for this so being an interpreter at a funeral in a Foreign Language is considered pushing terrorist propaganda in this trial is that correct. That is correct and this is a scene was from the very beginning pretty absolute and thats why we were really curious if the prosecutor would it should use two day some new evidence for a harsh accusation and to the persecuted didnt and you know weve got some foreign journalists in turkey who have been released without a trial and weve got some like mazola who have to stay in custody until there is some sort of verdict do we know why there is this discrepancy why there is this difference well i was on the expecting may be released after as many as three thousand signals of the Turkish Foreign minister towards germany say that maybe we do need to kind of free start to maybe there are different groups was in the turkish government which have different interests and i think that todays decision is a political decision and for me an expression that the turkish government doesnt have an interest in making sings easier in dealing with germany so if german journalists are being targeted in turkey do you think the German Government is doing enough is doing what it should to help the. I mean on the practical level i think theyre doing quite a lot i referring to the Embassy Staff editor and to the consulate staff in east and in ankara and i think ziad trying very hard at least to to wisit terror to provide her. With Children Books for a further little son shes imprisoned with and i mean under this level i seeing German Authorities are doing quite a lot even if turkey is rejecting legitimate rights which are which which all governments worldwide agreed in the Vienna Convention but on the political level here in bergen i have the impression that it took too long for the German Government to take clear stand on the case of measured tolu first and i seeing it took for too long to look for a joint european position on e. U. Affairs and now its high time to do this for for for for increasing the pressure in turkey for releasing foreign prisoners and of course all the turkish in prison as well the Political Prisoners kristie amir with Reporters Without Borders in germany christiane thank you still ahead part three of our series on be gay in russia. The reason shock and i have lived many times disgusted by my you do want to. Live in russia you can make money with homophobia. To fix a piece of wire to my Little Finger and switched on the current. Day in russia a d w special series that this week on the day. Old tonight it is believed that hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein is now here in europe he reportedly left the u. S. Yesterday to receive sex addiction rehab the same day that his wife announced that she is filing for divorce more and more women are coming forward accusing hollywoods once most powerful producer of Sexual Harassment and even rape the fallout is personal and political former u. S. President obama and former u. S. President ial candidate Hillary Clinton who both received Campaign Contributions from weinstein saying that they are sick and disgusted and shocked by the news but as our next report shows us there are plenty of people who are not surprised at all. Harvey weinsteins and that Sexual Misconduct has been an open secret in hollywood for years when sting said to a representative that in his opinion one of the encounters had been consensual but more and more women are coming forward with harling stories of harassment he led me to his bathroom pleading that i just watch him masturbate. My heart was racing and i was very scared. I pulled my arm away finally and headed to the door he started following me and telling me that he could introduce me to Bob Weinstein and that i could get a three picture deal and that he would green light my script but i had to watch him masturbate the New York Times recently published an audi a recording made by the new York Police Department where weinstein appears to confess to the Sexual Assault of an italian model now three actresses have accused the movie mogul of rape. Hollywood a listers have come forward with the stories of Sexual Harassment including Angelina Jolie who told the New York Times she had a bad experience with weinstein in her youth and chose never to work with him again and to warn others when they did. When its contra said weinstein had groped her as a twenty two year old and suggested they massa teach other she refused. The terrible toefl and you know my heart goes out to the experienced. Went through that situation appears to be manipulated in any way in doubt that the women who experience that have their voices. Shed light on that issue and hearing the stories its going to definitely make the next guy was an obvious position think twice about doing Something Like that. Hillary clinton said she was shocked and appalled by the revelations weinstein had been a big supporter of the democrats tonight in around one point five Million Dollars to the party over twenty five years. When stevens wife has now announced shes leaving him and hes been fired by his and studio media reports say hes now seeking professional help for sex addiction. Well today marks coming out day its a day which aims to bring was being gay rights and issues out of the closet now that is easier said than done in some countries where discrimination still prevails but. It could even get you killed in some places such as the russian region of chechnya where an alleged purge of homosexuals is taking place all this week is focusing on being gay in russia in an exclusive series tonight our Moscow Bureau chief Yuri Rossetto introduces us to a man named boris. Only the oligarchs have it easy here in russia everyone else teaches journalists people with hiv have it tough for. The next room with me as a gay man i feel social pressure each and every day look at the homophobia has become trendy you can even own money with it make a name for yourself homophobes get invited on to prime time t. V. Chat shows and make even more money. From knocked up a flop of the Current Campaign of homophobia going back in two thousand and thirteen when the old banning socalled gay propaganda was passed people thought it wouldnt change much but now we are really feeling the impact of your horse sodomites perverts. Sags out of our city. You know if we can we can we dont need immigrants and we dont need gays what we need is a Healthy Society the Church Common children those are the values we need. A lot of is here to distract people its a colorful character he fits the bill because its about distracting people from the real social and economic problems that exist in the problems that really affect our future. He says gays and western agents have to undermine russias moral foundations from the inside out. When the first report is about the persecution of gays in chechnya came in i reacted instantly petersburg visit to the Church President s father before i handcuffed myself to it. When use of the stunt spread of said i should scrub the bridge with detergent to get rid of what he called the contamination id left behind. The thing is that i actually am a should be positive of what but how could he have known. How do you know hes a fact. That was difficult to hear its exactly the pressure i was talking about and you realize that the whole government machine is against you. You know how much you know most of the charts and if the book doesnt matter if its putin whos in charge or someone else no ones ever going to get rid of the discriminatory laws we have. Little to saying i like russia i dont want to go anywhere else i want to do everything i can to live a free lunch.
