Inside Story - Does the World Still Need the US for Leadership?

This year's G20 summit of the world's major economies was a tense and sometimes frustrating gathering, exposing the United States isolation globally on the key issues of climate and trade.

World leaders deplored President Donald Trump for pulling out of the landmark Paris Accord, reaffirming their commitment to fight global warming, without the US. Washington is now left in what some are calling a “club of one”. Will the world continue to look to the US for leadership? If not, who will step into that role? | Presenter: Hazem Sika | Guests: Marc Pierini - visiting scholar at Carnegie Europe and former EU ambassador to Turkey and Syria; Molly McKew - foreign policy expert and strategy consultant; Inderjeet Parmar - professor in international politics at City University London

Hamed Abdel-Samad Slams Quran: Is This Logic of Allah, Who Is Said To Be Merciful?!

Egyptian-German scholar Dr. Hamed Abdel-Samad discussed the treatment of the Jews in the Quran, and said that an entire tribe was punished for what the Prophet Muhammad perceived to be the intentions of one man. "Either he just invented this, or else he was hearing voices in his paranoid head and was hallucinating, Abdel-Samad said of the Prophet Muhammad, and asked: "Is this the divine logic of God, who proclaimed Himself to be Merciful?" In his lecture, which was posted on the Internet on November 7, 2016, Abdel-Samad further said: "Our Lord gives His blessing to theft, the holy theft upon which the entire Islamic economy was based."

Gewaltexzesse, Anarchie, Hass. Der schwarze Block sorgt in Hamburgs Szeneviertel um die Rote Flora für die düstersten Stunden seit Jahrzehnten. Mehrere Stunden lang tobt ein Mob während des G20-Gipfels. Dann schreitet die Staatsmacht ein.

Immer wieder brennen Barrikaden, Autonome zerschlagen Fensterscheiben mit schweren Pflastersteinen, brechen in einen Drogeriemarkt und eine Filiale eines Supermarkts ein. Sie plündern den Laden, tragen alles raus, zerfetzen das Mobiliar, um es unter dem Jubel Schaulustiger auf der Straße ins Feuer zu werfen. Auf einem Straßenzug der Schanze, Hamburgs linkem Szeneviertel, brennt es lichterloh. Während des G20-Treffens der führenden Wirtschaftsmächte lassen gewalttätige Demonstranten ihre Wut aus.

Doch der politische Gipfel hat noch seine schwerste Aufgaben vor sich.

Inside Story: Are the Saudis Funding Extremism?

The diplomatic crisis in the Gulf has seen Qatar living under a blockade for more than a month now.

Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Bahrain and Egypt accused Qatar of, among other things, supporting extremists - claims Doha strongly denies. Now, a report from a UK think tank is pointing the finger at Saudi Arabia for being a key figure in financing such groups. And raises questions about its role with armed groups like the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant armed group.

There is also another report on the subject - from the British government, but its conclusions have not been made public. So, why is Saudi Arabia accusing other countries of sponsoring extremism? | Presenter: Sohail Rahman | Guests: Shafeeq Ghabra - Professor of Political Science at Kuwait University; Simon Mabon - Lecturer in International Relations at the University of Lancaster; Marwan Kabalan - Associate Analyst at the Doha Institute: Arab Center for Research & Policy Studies

Did Saudi Arabia Miscalculate with Qatar Feud? - UpFront

In this web extra, we discuss the new leadership of Mohammed bin Salman, Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, and look at how the current Gulf crisis may shape future diplomatic relations.

"I think [Mohammed bin Salman] has miscalculated, once again," says Barbara Slavin, Director of the Future of Iran Initiative at the Atlantic Council. "I think he has scored an own goal."

"[Mohammed bin Salman] is not going to have quick success everywhere and his biggest challenge, actually, is not in foreign policy, it’s in domestic policy, and in reforming and diversifying his economy, and that’s a huge undertaking," says Bernard Haykel, Professor of Near Eastern Studies at Princeton University.

The panellists also discussed whether relations between Gulf countries will recover.

"I think it is absolutely possible," Haykel says.

"There will be concessions from both sides, but I think that Qatar, culturally and religiously, is an extension of Arabia."

"This has never been a cohesive group and now it may be fatally broken," Slavin says.

Dystopian Nightmare: Eyewitness Decries Police Repression at G20 Summit as 100,000 Take to Streets

Mass demonstrations have erupted across Hamburg, Germany, as world leaders gather for the G20 summit, where President Donald Trump is meeting with other world leaders. About 100,000 protesters took to the streets and have staged sit-ins in an attempt to disrupt the first day of the summit. Police fired water cannons, pepper spray and stun grenades to disperse protesters. Key issues on the G20 agenda include climate change, trade and North Korea. Protesters who gathered say the G20 has failed to solve many issues, including climate change and global economic disparities.

The Guardian View on Macron: Progressive and Pro-European. What’s Not to envy?

THE GUARDIAN – EDITORIAL: In a speech in Versailles, France’s centrist leader seized his moment. The contrast with Theresa May’s agenda is a sobering one

Emmanuel Macron went to the Palace of Versailles on Monday and proclaimed a French revolution. For those with a feel for French history, this juxtaposition of venue and idea was rich in irony. But the French president’s speech to the newly elected parliament and the senate was one that matters in the here and now, not just in the republic itself but across Europe – and in Britain, too.

In one sense, Mr Macron’s address was familiar for those who have studied his rise. There were few new policy commitments. Those that he made – they included a reduction in the size of the national assembly and other state bodies plus, importantly, the lifting later this year of France’s post-Bataclan state of emergency – were familiar from his presidential campaign. There will be more detail when France’s prime minister, Édouard Philippe, outlines the government’s legislative programme on Tuesday. » | Monday, July 3, 2017

It includes shutting down the Al Jazeera network and aligning Qatar's foreign policy with that of the GCC among many other demands. Qatar has rejected the list, saying it violates its sovereignty.

Meanwhile, the US is calling on all sides to sit down and talk. A statement from Secretary of State Rex Tillerson says while some of the measures will be very difficult for Qatar to meet, there are significant areas which provide a basis for ongoing dialogue leading to resolution. So, is dialogue even possible?

Helmut Kohl from the Province to the World Stage | DW Documentary

From the province to the world stage: Helmut Kohl maintained close ties to his home region, Rheinland-Pfalz, and used it to his political advantage. How did Kohl's relationship to this region influence his political career, and his historical legacy?

With his burial on the grounds of Speyer cathedral, Helmut Kohl returns to the region that made him what he was: an international politician from the provinces. Kohl was often pilloried for his provincialism, but he used it to his political advantage: he entertained world leaders at the Deidesheimer Hof hotel, and treated them to his favorite local dishes. In this way, he eased their concerns about the possibility of a unified Germany -- and especially, the concerns of the French. And as far as a united Europe was concerned, Kohl envisioned not an abstract bureaucracy, but a community of regions. At the same time, there were serious problems in Kohl's family life. His two sons and second wife argued about how to maintain Kohl's political legacy. The CDU in Kohl's hometown of Ludwigshafen is also divided on Kohl's place in history -- because of his participation in a campaign financing scandal. For this report, we traveled to Rheinland-Pfalz to find out how this region affected Helmut Kohl's political career.

Trauerakt für Altkanzler: So verabschiedet sich Europa von Helmut Kohl in Straßburg

Hochrangige Politiker, Freunde und Familienmitglieder nehmen Abschied von Helmut Kohl. Seine Beisetzung ist mit einem enormen Aufwand verbunden. Der Sarg wird in der Luft, auf dem Land und auf dem Wasser unterwegs sein.

Es ist eine der größten Beerdigungen der deutschen Nachkriegsgeschichte: Zwei Wochen nach seinem Tod wird der frühere Bundeskanzler Helmut Kohl am heutigen Samstag beigesetzt. Die Trauerfeierlichkeiten an den drei Schauplätzen Straßburg, Ludwigshafen und Speyer erstrecken sich über den gesamten Tag. Kohl war 16 Jahre Bundeskanzler und 25 Jahre CDU-Vorsitzender. Er war am 16. Juni im Alter von 87 Jahren gestorben. Tausende Menschen werden zu den Trauerfeierlichkeiten erwartet.

Zunächst nehmen Politiker und Staatsgäste bei einem Trauerakt im EU-Parlament in Straßburg Abschied von Kohl. Erstmals wird damit ein gestorbener Politiker für seine Verdienste um Europa mit einem solchen europäischen Trauerakt geehrt. Reden sind unter anderem von Bundeskanzlerin Angela Merkel (CDU), EU-Ratspräsident Donald Tusk und dem früheren US-Präsidenten Bill Clinton geplant. Einen deutschen Staatsakt für Kohl wird es dagegen nicht geben.

Anschließend fliegt ein Hubschrauber der Bundespolizei den Sarg mit Kohls Leichnam von Straßburg in seine Geburtsstadt Ludwigshafen zurück. Dort wird der Sarg am Nachmittag in einem kurzen Trauerzug durch die Innenstadt gefahren, damit die Menschen dort Abschied nehmen können. Anschließend wird der Sarg auf ein Schiff gebracht, das dann die letzten Kilometer auf dem Rhein ins nahe gelegene Speyer fährt.

Zu der Domstadt hatte Kohl seit seiner Kindheit eine besondere Beziehung gepflegt. Im Kaiserdom ist am frühen Abend das Requiem angesetzt, zu dem noch einmal rund 1500 geladene Gäste erwartet werden. Dazu zählen Bundespräsident Frank-Walter Steinmeier und Kanzlerin Angela Merkel (CDU). Bis zu 3500 Menschen können Totenmesse per Videoleinwand in der Nähe des Doms anschauen. Mehr als tausend Polizisten sollen alleine im Raum Speyer und Ludwigshafen für Sicherheit sorgen.

Nach dem Trauergottesdienst ehrt die Bundeswehr den gestorbenen Bundeskanzler mit einem militärischen Zeremoniell. Dann wird der Sarg auf einen nahe gelegenen Friedhof gebracht und soll dort im engsten Freundes- und Familienkreis beigesetzt werden.

Kohls sterbliche Überreste kommen damit nicht in das Familiengrab nach Ludwigshafen, in der seine 2001 gestorbene erste Ehefrau Hannelore beigesetzt worden war. Streitigkeiten zwischen der Witwe Maike Kohl-Richter und Kohls Sohn Walter hatten die Vorbereitungen der Trauerzeremonien überschattet. (Quelle: dpa)
