had two authentic pieces here that were donated to the museum, right outside of berlin, and we shipped them over to washington dc from germany, and we put them up here. think about the berlin wall, they think about the group e and design on the wall. these are completely plain. they were on the east side, where people were not allowed to graffiti on the wall. one reason why they did not want people drawing on the wall was because having the wall completely clean made it easier for the guards, who were guarding the border, to see people. it made them more visible. seeing them without graffiti should remind us of the reason why the wall was put up, to keep people in. before the berlin wall was built, several million people actually cost the border from after the walld was put up, people did not stop trying to get out of germany. half the number were successful. great stories about people who were success in getting across the wall. took a lot of bravery and creativity and imagination because the berlin wall was not two with all but strip in the middle which could be guarded by guard dogs

of art as female created rights with the belts and more museum of art is doing here is just another example of the left fostering the false notion that women do best with crutches. ok joining me now to debate the topic we have the leader of the british political party justice for men and boys that might be cannon and women's rights activists maria beatrice giovanni welcome to you both a very good evening. to 1st as i understand we're talking just 4 percent of the museum's current permanent works are created by women so people would say you know this is a long overdue correction. you know it's complete nonsense i'm not aware of a field of human activity where excellence can be measured objectively where women compete and in numbers at the top level this is all about. this is all about forcing institutions to buy poor arts from poor female artists. that's a strong assertion maria how would you respond to that. well of course they don't agree and. museum is actually to. affirmative action to to write a historical wrong which has been. excluding basically women from from the arts world

today all right so. prime minister bobbish game getting heckled by protesters but what exactly are they calling for what would satisfy the protesters. was an event as you mentioned they did offer him and it's amazing yesterday they basically said look give up your conflict of interest by the end of the year resign or we will increase protests they basically accusing him of learning isn't pockets where his business interests see owns the or he's put the conglomerate i prefer that an accurate chemicals conglomerate into a trust fund but that hasn't satisfied his critics it also doesn't satisfy the e.u. necessarily they are investigating a conflict of interest the czech republic may have to return several e.u. subsidies as a result of these protesters are upset about that and not just that they're worried about losing democracy eroding that erosion of democracy that was for so hard for 30 years ago. and crane reporting for us from prague we appreciate it. to. authorities in iran have blocked internet access

back they got to pay a price yes but they got the pieces back well i think that is the most important right now for for the museum but if worse came to worse and disease did nailed down the jewels in order to get hold of the precious stones is there a way to trace it back or are they off the hook that way so i'm not a druid's expert but i'm afraid. that one skull just melted you cannot figure out from which origin it comes and i imagine it to be very difficult if it's just right and what about private art to dealers have you ever heard of the possibility that you know they have some rich client as a really need to have that more or that statue is a contract i do think that this is more something from a hollywood movie imagining those gentleman sitting in the cellar of his house and looking at the pews whether it's jewelry of god but in reality those groups really like criminals and are connected more or less to money laundering and trading weapons and so on so i doubt that there is a client language like i am right that's my answer is either. don't like or their partner at ocean has these a

right and scott listen to that you know what does happen know it's a big it's a big question i mean the pieces are credibly well down the the this work is a credibly well known so selling on the open market for the thieves would probably be impossible at least that's what they are historians hope theoretically they these pieces could be broken down and sold for their value as diamonds but we heard today from the press conference that that would be a fraction of their their their true value another possibility that was raised though there's no evidence that this is going to happen is that the thieves to try to auction this jewelry back to the state of dread of sacks and to to go have them buy back their treasures and if this is possible we hope though that of course these pieces will be recovered in their original state and that they will be restored to their rightful place at the museum meanwhile the investigations continue or at our correspondents there scott roxboro in studio and maximillian a kosik thank you both. now to hong kong where pro-democracy supporters have won a landslide v

there is another museum -- well in east berlin, right in the beginning and the museum in berlin became a sort of museum in charge -- well, first showing the german war in the soviet union. but that's the place where the soviets have their spot, let's say. our memorial culture is sort of really a process of or a result cold war. we will see how it comes together one day. our museum is facing several challenges chris costa was saying to face these challenges and become relevant we have to change places because we really want to show our big objects in that huge airport, well, one of the hangers. still it is a big project. and you really have to see, it is this kind of story that we are telling tonight, really central to the german memorial culture. it is part of the mergial culture in berlin. as you know in germany we focus on the nazi past of the ggr, the sdgd membership. so -- that's what i want to say. let me introduce you to the guests tonight. officers, professor hope harrison, she's an associate professor of history and international affairs at the george washington university here
