On Saturday, progressive sections in Frankfurt organise the gathering to commemorate the victims of right-wing violence in Germany. The meeting was organised on the second anniversary of the verdict on the notorious murders by the National Socialist Underground or the NSU. The gathering was organised by the Frankfurt committees of various socialist organisations, anti-fascist groups and trade unions, including the Socialist German workers' youth and the students' wing of Dialinkan. In the meeting, the participants denounce the rising hate crimes across Germany perpetrated by fascists and racist groups that predominantly target the minority communities and migrants. The NSU was a neo-Nazi terrorist group that perpetrated a series of racist violent incidents in Germany, including 10 murders between 2000 and 2007. All the victims were people with immigrant backgrounds from Turkish, Kurdish and Greek origins. There have been strong allegations of collusion by the police and intelligence department with the NSU in the violence. There are also allegations that the mainstream media under-reported the involvement of neo-Nazi groups in the crimes. After widespread protests and international outcry, the NSU murder trial began in 2013 and concluded in 2018. The Munich Higher Regional Court eventually found five neo-Nazis guilty. The gathering was organised. The gathering on Saturday was organised by Frankfurt committees of various socialist organisations, anti-fascist groups and trade unions, including the socialist German workers' youth and the students' wing of Dialinkan. In the meeting, the participants denounce the rising hate crimes across Germany perpetrated by fascists and racist groups targeting the migrant communities and minorities. Recently, right-wing extremism, hate crimes and racist campaigns have been on the rise in Germany. Far-right political parties, including the Alternative for Germany or the AFD, have been expanding their base based on hypernationalistic and anti-immigrant campaigns. In our next story, we go to Tunisia, where protesters in the southern part of the country took to the streets on Saturday, over rising unemployment and worsening living conditions. Hundreds participated in the demonstrations that were staged in the town of Ramada near the Libyan border. The town also held protests against the police killing of a young man last week, supposedly during an anti-smuggling operation. Protests in the south of the country have been raging over the past few weeks over the economic crisis in the region. The protesters are demanding that President Keir Saeed address the situation in the south as well as the police killing. In Tatooine, about 80 kilometres from Ramada, protesters blocked access routes to the crucial El Kamut pumping station in the outskirts of the town. Last Thursday, President Saeed briefly mentioned the situation but failed to list or talk about any current plans to deal with it. The speaker of the Malaysian parliament, Mohammed Araf Mohammed Yusuf, is said to be replaced by Azar bin Azizan after he lost the contest for the post-pious lender majority. The new speaker is the nominee of the prime minister. In the vote that took place earlier today, the low house of parliament was divided roughly in the middle, 111 votes with support of Azar's candidacy and 108 voted for Mohammed Araf and one abstention from a deputy speaker who conducted the election. Azar's election is seen as a personal victory for the prime minister Mohi Yuddin Yassin as it was the first test of a tenacious coalition that is currently supporting the government. Yassin came to power in March this year, taking over the government after a week-long political crisis precipitated by the abrupt resignation of his predecessor, the removal of the speaker, who was a Mahadev appointee, still does little to better the government's position which hangs by a majority of just 3 votes in the house. In the meanwhile, Yassin's 4-month-old government is already being criticized for its attack on the press and cracked down on asylum seekers. That's all we have in this episode of the International Daily Roundup, we'll be back tomorrow with more news from around the world. Until then, keep watching People's Dispatch. Thank you very much.
