environment is not responsible make up your own mind. dw, made for mines, the hello and welcome to focus on your rep. it's great to have you with us. russia continues to clamp down on civil liberties, and the country authorities added what they call the l v t. b, movement to a list of extremist and terrorist organizations, visitors. so if a clear bar in the south west of russia experience 1st time the impact of the new ruling in march this year, they were subjects to a police wait. the extreme is labeled outlaws l g b t q plus activism, gay,
4:31 am
lesbian, transgender, or queer people living in russia cannot receive a lengthy prison sentences. this is not something konstantin celebrates the young man from moscow has opened the gate, but he never deemed himself as an extremist to evade the possible prison term costs . since he went into exile, he says, cape rude, let him from the russian capital to barcelona, spain. he arrived after a long and exhausting journey. a warm welcome with the new progress, pride flag, caustics arrival in barcelona is a big occasion for his friends. that's because caustic does not have a return ticket. he's here to stay. i'm exhausted. having slept with 2 months earlier, we met 39 year old konstantin or caustic, for short. in moscow,
4:32 am
constantine spent the last few weeks living in constant fear. he says, fearing repercussions for being gay in his home country of russia. the paranoia i'm afraid of ever think of holding a man's hand in the park. i just run to that. we'd already probably be some highway legal like on the is the that's due to a new law passed in november 2023. it identifies the vaguely defined so called international l g b t movement, which it deems extremist since november to man holding hands in a part can be prosecuted for so called propaganda of non traditional sexual relations. what that means for constantine is that he no longer feels safe living in russia. this has been the case for many people from the l g b t q plus community for years. but the new law exacerbates their situation. they
4:33 am
faced arbitrary criminalization. konstantin has been openly gay for years, including at his work place. he works as an i t specialist and a managerial position. soon after the law was passed, konstantin was fired. the reasons for it were bogus. he says, and what was really behind the layoff with his sexuality. since the start of the site was i thought i was suddenly afraid for my future months. so i no longer knew where i could work up and you know, even how i could grow old and it'll show how to get started. initial data with a few years ago, i was hoping for a promotion, a successful career. and i would like to have it, so i wanted to save some money to keep the didn't get, but i can no longer be sure that someone that won't come and block my bank account . uh, can i get my apartment and so on? it's cool enough. oh, it's a date the police raise like this one that appear bar in or in burg have left the l g b t q plus community. really everyone's face the wall
4:34 am
. no turning around face the wall. a chip off from a local association alleged that the bar was spreading so called homosexual propaganda. the owner is now face up to 10 years in prison. the community is in shock. yes, they're set up with. yeah, well i asked myself with ice or vice and presidency. no, i mean i am not alexi nev, only. i am neither the coverage nor the will to fight against the system. i don't want to either. what i want is simply to live freely and brief calmly. the weeks following his dismissal were horrible. konstantin says, he felt persecuted, lived in constant fear, fear that he might unwittingly provide a pretext for his arrest. so he decided to leave russia and go to spain, where he has a few friends to tell everyone to take something different. i'm taking my playstation a whole life and just 2 suitcases and another life before
4:35 am
him. but the fear of persecution stayed with him right up until boarding the airplane was done with that to him. the bush. as soon as i had this feeling that i would get to the airport and something would happen and package control for someone to come to order the or they have an issue with my documents, the customers, i'll send you some other than that. that's what i'm supposed to be more comfortable . i passed the passport control and my things were being taken off the conveyor belt. i saw a group of police officers got the me, young boy, they were looking straight out to get every nod from an officer. seemed a huge danger of sticking to from us from the constantine managed to leave the country via turkey and arrived safely in spain. some of those were a terrible 20 hours. i'm thirsty and i want to have a smoke 1st. he wants to apply 1st i live in
4:36 am
spain, his friends will help him settle in and find a job, but he has a whole new reality to get used to the bottom. and i 1st have to learn not to be afraid anymore. i taught your all my life, but not anymore constantino's that will be difficult. he used to be a successful manager, but now needs to start from scratch. but he's on phased plans to learn spanish and go back to university. returning to russia is out of the question, the should 6 work be allowed are banned in europe? well, it's a hot button issue. the countries in the european union can't agree on various models of 6 work regulation exist with a germany having opted for a full legalization approach. like in most of the e u countries,
4:37 am
prostitution is legal. here. sweden, on the other hand, supports the last lenient model. buying 6 as a criminal offense, was selling 6 is not. let's take a look at the locations of 6 work in sweden and germany. hamburg sunk to power, the neighborhood home to the 8 by bond and its red light district. here, sex work is seen as business as usual, especially by man. so home, hamburg, it goes with the territory lying, i guess they make money from it. so you can't see much people one to go down books and sunk poly sex as a tourist attraction that draws people from around the globe. there are even guided tours of the so called sin mile for their lives. if i could plug since i could probably double this process, so i'm going to sit down for a beer. it won't be long before someone offers you a room with the dancer. with a 10 2nd officer mocking cock prostitution,
4:38 am
is legal in germany. the goal of the countries liberal legislation which has been in effect for over 20 years, was to give the women access to services like health care and unemployment insurance. but therapy and other consequences to many people from abroad. now travel to germany, to buy sex, including from women who don't sell it, of their own free will like teresa from africa out of fear for her baby under families. she wants to remain anonymous. she was brought to germany by smugglers. teresa tells us she owes these human traffickers $60000.00 bureaus, and that she's supposed to earn the money on the streets as a prostitute. because of the grizzly michel, they want to have lots considering was the people going to move
4:39 am
up pictures by sit on this planet it's doing associated to to pressure her to human traffickers even separated her from her baby non match one that's one that's about that's all spelled out to the screen, reset the child's pay. decide not pushing me below me. easy. 5 on the batch. i was pregnant. sorry about douglas, but also she fell off then all the one. not. not that he said forcing women into sex. work is a punishable offense. in germany, but too afraid to turn to the authorities. teresa went underground. instead. there are about 30000 officially registered prostitutes in germany. but the number
4:40 am
of a legal sex workers is thought to be 10 times higher. women's rights activist nova eva says germany has degenerated into europe's brothel in her eyes. the german model has failed. germany's liberal loves promote a system that exploits and degrades women and turns them into products. and so in a box to cut it and then tie on the given men, the right to buy sex with the woman for 30 years. it goes to 6, the call from it on a call for have us sweetness approach to regulating prostitution is a role model. what's known as the nordic model is finding more and more supporters in germany, posing the gun, sweden's west coast. but t is live, is a police officer on his way to an undercover assignment. he's responsible for tracking down sex buyers in his hometown. people by 6, you know,
4:41 am
like 247. but we can also say in uh, an increase or a spike during, you know, non showers and, and yes, when people get off work, you know, between maybe 4 and 6 in sweden, buying 6 is a legal for live and his colleagues for sex workers are simply witnesses right, only their customers are prosecuted. this is the 1st address on his list. lou. this hoping to bust a customer today. so now it's just a waiting game. some crimes are easier to explain it to you. you've been drunk. know, cutting that fights and maybe you hit something everyone can relate to that and understand. but by in 6 it's uh, it's a shameful problem. in swedish capital stock. com, there is no longer any red light district. that's partly due to the mon hicks from the swedish police forces senior expert on prostitution. we have to ask ourselves the question, what would the situation looked like if it was allowed,
4:42 am
if it was legal to actually buy 6 and to actually run the problem, then we are most convinced that the situation here would be a tragedy. because we didn't need to use a rich country, there was a lot of money to be be made back in housing, book station in various cars, mathias live and his colleagues lie in wait for the customer. we have a potential customer, i thought anyone called leaving sex workers, place faces a heavy fines based on their income. repeat, offenders can end up in prison, the false policy so we're price on location. while his colleagues bring the suspected customer to police headquarters, the woman is questioned as
4:43 am
a witness. this time the woman is not from abroad. the 50 year old swede was selling sex out of desperation. she is trying to pay off a tax debt for ex husband left behind i go to, i tried to earn a bit of cash this way now. and then during the day i work at a call center. and then a social worker who has been called to the scene offers the woman help to get out of prostitution. that's also part of the swedish model, but even the buyers can get help in sweden. like from social worker video, hans and she said people aged 18 to 90 approach or to help them stop buying sex and some ask for help because they don't want to start in the 1st place to defend zillow. setting it to there are men who call us and say, apply,
4:44 am
think i'm on the way to buying sex and i need help. so much do i have provided and the fact that they're seeking help to stop it before it happens still, but my, so that's a very positive development. and yet the positive since she stop selling sex, honestly, dane has been combating the idea that prostitution should be normalized. for former boyfriend forced her into it with violence. between the age of 17 to 23. i. so 645 times a week. a 3 to 8 man every day. she believes the swedish law is an important 1st step, but says stronger enforcement is needed. all the politicians are doing is increasing the punishment from getting a fine to getting like a small prison sentence am. but i don't of
4:45 am
the thing the men are afraid of getting calls back and sunk. probably in hamburg, we meet sex worker on dean to review at a photo exhibition about sex work. some of her good friends have let themselves be photographed and angers her that in germany, more and more people want to band buying sex. the scene to start with the not far before the demand is prohibited, the customer structure changes sized. that means those who don't want to break the law might try to make do with buying less exercise or go elsewhere, then you go next up with an unable to name auto on this vehicle. and only those who are okay with breaking the law will remain for the diesel, keeps weekends, but she's thankful for germany's liberal laws. then let me just mention you can when people get to know me, they see that i like my job and really have fun doing it on the 6 is going to be fast, palm harbor, but then have it. then they always say, yes,
4:46 am
but you're the exception on what about the poor other people who have been traffic to a 100 and so by to and i always find it really hard to get across how broad the spectrum of realities is. right. the spectrum is on the tv, while in germany, even prostitutes disagree over legislation and suite, and the majority support the ban on buying sex. but she has loops is back at housing board police headquarters. the ledge clients who has been arrested is still a waiting questionnaire. i don't have any feelings that's about the what a working. but for them, the ones who by sex, i don't feel very much actually available for the girls who is a put in a place where maybe she doesn't want to be as the suspect continues to deny the accusations. but the dna sample would likely be enough to convict him. i believe tonight when me and my team, we go to bed and we look at the house in the mirror. we think of it, we have done
4:47 am
a different difference for someone today. then mathias lives ushers, the suspected customer out. whether that was his last visit to a sex worker is on certain, even in sweden. do you know the secret to long lasting happiness? ask the fins if you don't fit and rang, says the happiest country in the world, according to the world. happiness report for the 7th time, and there will people's close connection to nature contributions to the reading. se researchers this 5 long cold winter us with little daylight and defense actually learn to be happy. the 7th graders are just coming back from their lunch break. their next lesson isn't math or history, but emotional competence. teacher anika lee cleaning says the people's will be working in groups. they'll be learning hard to express their feelings using the
4:48 am
right words. that a yes oh, in an old single story say like the wireless pop area. you off the property, go poster and divide into like 3 that's low at the same mistake. positive emotions on one side and negative ones on the other make off the phone and very the same. most negative ones are things that make you unhappy or sad. feel are there are many words for feeling or you all finish schools, teach, teamwork and communication skills. social and emotional skills are part of the curriculum which visual expression matches watching motion. the lessons are helpful encourages us to speak up when someone is being bullied or something to that, that can't just be ignored. not associated with the sentence, how to correctly react, sadly or emotionally happy, sad,
4:49 am
angry. you need to learn that. and then the 45 minute lesson is up, the posters are ready and the teacher wants to know who finds the exercise easy. what made it on both without avail, we're teaching young people that it is okay to have different feelings. at the same time, they're learning that we must treat everyone with respect even if we have negative feelings. um and they somewhat better place to learn this than at school. and what i mean by that would i called the way people treat each other as one explanation for that seemed finish happiness. the world happiness report finds that fins treat each other more kindly than other nations do the if the, if we have a sense of community, it is great that we take care of each other with was nearly midnight that without finished democracy works. is it about a 100 things here, where coffee, a story,
4:50 am
man, who make time to help the poor and unemployed at the how about us? we really have to go through the, on a viet about how i go. the finish date helps and supports people in need. the housing 1st scheme, for example, ensures nobody has to live on the streets or, or the homeless or given apartments like these. with all the central household items provided. they are in the line. they gave us the name. we social worker mer. yes, 10 men beyond takes great care getting the apartment ready. then it's very important that we just don't leave the stuff like this. so they have a paid and that, that it's made already. and they don't have to like use just don't just to give the keys, but you know, it's home one farmer homeless man shows us this apartment. unfortunately, flats like these are often messy because some tenants have never had a home of their own before. they've got to learn everything from scratch, including cleaning routines like that. if we cannot reach you to
4:51 am
finish, very bad. so that's the point. that's our main goal to make a connection with a new tenants to keep the connection with the old tenants. if we don't do that, we will not succeed. hey corey, local tenant county in marietta gets along well, but it took 3 years for her to gain counties trust me. about the ocean some the now i sense there are new horizons to new dimensions. my depression was bad. i didn't even perceive colors anymore. now that slowly coming back to the quote i receiving an apartment, but no strings attached and getting support to overcome, set back saved him, says county. but of course, finland isn't without problems since russia's war in ukraine began. many here have
4:52 am
become concerned because finland shares a 1300 kilometer border with russia. and the government's plan to stare 2 measures of sparked use to beat even so finland was named the world's happiest country for the 7 successive year. homebound shots is from germany and move to finland. 40 years ago. he says another key ingredient for happiness, just guessing outdoors. no matter the weather is my day. he finished winter last 6 months and this you can't stay at home all that time. you can't, you have to get out most one because roman exercises 5 times a week, not competitively. that's another key to happiness according to the world, happiness report in finland, there's less competition and people are not so competitively minded. like in other countries like it's kind of get the hanging in your mind on, let's say, plus up. if someone else possesses something that i don't know i just as i don't
4:53 am
have to be, that was because i don't lack it to you. i mean, it wasn't taken from me. i think that's one of the most profound finish wisdoms can be. so we can all learn to be happy, just like that. since even for modern art lovers in major cities, it's kind of difficult to find the time to visit an exhibition in a secluded small town even more so. but what if they came to you? that's where the mobile museum falls in. it's a truck with a load of contemporary art criss crossing mobile phones. and mickey are accessible to those in remote communities like a set as could be nothing much ever happens here in santa is going to be a village in the french countryside. there is no shop, no cafe,
4:54 am
and certainly no museum. that's why this truck is here with its precious cargo. the move for mobile museum travels the countryside with works from the pump, the to museum in paris, to introduce the children 1st and foremost to our ones that was in the museum. the dinosaurs skeletons are that i saw a truck like that ones with virtual reality. it was really cool, this is the 1st visit to a museum with real art for half the children here. for many, cautiously exploring and describing art works is completely new for you know, maybe that is anger. ringback for others, it might be love. everyone seems different emotions in a 2nd and what is being alive is the theme of the exhibition.
4:55 am
with a 25 works in the small space, children can playfully discover the world of art. the mobile museum welcomes around $20000.00 children and adults a year free of charge. and you did to when i was little, i lived in very rural environments where there were no museums or music. they actually, if i was 18 when i visited my 1st museum in paris, okay. access to museums is not a given. there are social, psychological, and geographic barriers to it. means you got to go see, the mobile museum stays in each place for 2 days. then it packs up again and rolls off to another village in the middle of the country side, the so that brings to this week's edition of focus on europe to an end. i hope you enjoyed the show. thanks for watching. 5 for the
