Germanys chancellor has called for the rights and freedoms of hong kong residents to be respected for a peaceful solution after months of protests in the chinese territory in the chinese surgery a chance of a made the comments of the start of a 3 day visit to china. On the americans visit to beijing is a tightrope act on the one hand china is germanys most important trading partner and the current trade dispute between the u. S. And china has a big effect on the German Economy on the other hand people expect merkel to address the situation in hong kong the chancellor recommends talks between demonstrators and the hong kong leadership in the incidents of 2 its one in the Current Situation we should do the utmost to avoid Violence Solutions can only be found politically through dialogue and signs that hong kongs government leader wants to invite the demonstrators to such a dialogue i mean. Prime minister likud kyung is not mentioning a possible intervention by the Chinese Security forces he supports the government in hong kong in its efforts to literally put an end to chaos within the framework of the law. We will protect hong kongs long term success and just ability. The world must recognise death of Chinese People have the capacity and the wisdom to take care of their own Affairs Chinese and german managers have signed 11 economic agreements that are expected to create and secure thousands of jobs in both countries hong kong activist wang mo told daughter bella that the chancellor could address human rights even more strongly without endangering economic relations. The house damas in there did the equivalent back then she lived in east germany so she knows exactly what life in a system with Police Violence is like and thats why she should at least mention that it was a mistake for police to use violence in hong kong when meanwhile Hong Kong Police once again used tear gas and rubber bullets against demonstrators protesting chinese influence it remained unclear how many were injured. Back at home people in the german capital have made their views on the hong kong protests clear things used newborn panda twins have been coopted into the spears. House the story. So the space for cubs that barely a week old and theyve already become politicized yet so this week the berlin newspaper targus. Spiegel they polled their readers asking for name suggestions what to call these 2 panic up as they were born in berlin zoo last week now of course its not every day the pandas are born anywhere and this was huge news here in germany you know some of the naming suggestions were young and yang there was bam and boo. As want to call them hong kong of course in recognition off the prodemocracy movements and the protests going on in hong kong at the moment and the. Like most plan dozens those are actually by the Chinese Government and theyre just on loan to disease to the governments around the world as part of beijings ponder the play mysie now this story was picked up by the by the tabloid builds and they wrote an editorial asking asking the German Government to use the naming of these pandas to put pressure on beijing to send a message to beijing now its unlikely that the demagogue will do that but theres naming raul coinciding with im michael visited beijing has of course puts. A spotlight on these 2 panda babies ok so is this panda do diplomacy gone wrong i think you can say that i mean panda diplomacy goes back centuries i mean it goes back to the old like chinese dynasties. In modern times but perhaps the most famous example is 972 when u. S. President Richard Nixon was given a pair of pandas after his visit to beijing. That kind of started authorities off u. S. Chinese relations which had been hostile for decades today beijing uses panda diplomacy more as a way of you know if you like capturing the hearts and minds of people in places like germany where people might have an criticism towards china when it comes to things like human rights but it looks like berlin is were not that easily duped. So you might say that this part of the clemency has backfired well. Thank you kind of correspondent. Unmounted chance to rwanda is on its final approach to the moon and due to touchdown close to its south pole if. You will join the United States russia and china in the exclusive club of countries that have successfully landed a lunar rover on earths nearest neighbor. Fire for 3 full while you know. The reality is that it was an historic moment for india and unmanned spacecraft to bound for the moon successfully launched in july after a previous attempt was called off due to technical problems. Chandra into which means moon craft in ancient sanskrit has spent the last few weeks traveling towards the south of the moon. On monday the landing robot vic chrome separated from the craft ahead of its planned touchdown if successful india will become only the 4th country in the world to have achieved a controlled soft landing its Previous Mission in 2008 ended with the spacecraft probe intentionally crashing into the moon the landing site this time is around 600 kilometers from the luna south pole an unexplored section of the moon after landing vic chrome will release indias 1st lunar rover on to the surface it may be small but it carries instruments that will measure among other things water deposits scientists know they exist thanks to indias 2008 mission which maps the moons surface from orbit. Theres a lot riding on this 126000000 year male endeavor not only does india hope to advance the worlds understanding of the moon it also wants to prove how advanced it is in space technology. Lets get more on this from her author gopalaswami hes onery senior fellow from the indian political think tank the Observer Research foundation he joins us from down and welcome to day w. Why is india doing this i think. I think for a lot of reasons a lot of the main reasons for this is for me they did Space Research organization for which our Space Applications was the mainstay now Space Exploration has become one of the mainstays and i think one of the Space Explorations one landing is one of the 3 keeping civilian thats when the its doing. On the other one of the other areas should i see here is proving the Technological Progress as you are all report mentioned and i think the show is great so that it can do very ambitious projects in space and this is one of them and thats why its doing it and Space Exploration to what end. I think Space Exploration has no whens i think space you know they need Space Research organization nasa began as an agency where it started doing Space Applications for the benefit of its own citizens an example of many. Goals. Knowledge become like Space Exploration assets as because one of the mainstay of its space projects and persists where you know they have plans to put more mad man on the moon and i think they will they will continue pushing these goals these acid burns called such possible to get through. To get to prove to themselves that you know capable of exhibiting these. Why big ambitious space projects yeah as youre speaking weve been looking at pictures that live pictures from the banker who are in our control room there you have the launchers expected to. Use your eggs in space salon thats a tiny moment. When you talk about they advance as an Indian Technology does that does the rest of the world benefit from hung these space flights at all. Yeah i mean you know its always in the in the realm of my competitive planetology of course whatever. Research and findings that india will do im sure and the skeins of it is india is not averse to sharing and if you look at the Indian Space Program thats primarily through a lens of pragmatic somebody elizabeth and indias always been somebody whos been a cooperator in Space Exploration its all based welcomed other countries to cooperate and its peaceful pursuit of space and been there done that even when its been a technology exported as such as launching satellites its always welcome to other countries and thats participated privately its majority of the european nations when it comes to space so i am not doubt in my mind that when it comes to benefiting people india will share the results of the Police Search and will make sure that. Its findings are beneficial to everybody concerned when it comes to advancing. In this space without now landing on the moon doesnt come cheap that the price tag on this is Something Like 126000000 euros with Something Like 360000000 people in india living in poverty when once is money well spent. Yeah i mean look you know. In 1969 india went in the pursuit of space and you know that with the east west and so many you know the india was a quarter country in the sixtys than it is right now and people ask the same kind of questions but the but the bigger question to ask this hall has been to use this technology from the 1960 s. Until now for the development of the east the porter people and for me the answer is Pretty Simple in india you know india. Used to burry rice leave it here and there shouldnt be indias a face country to do things like telemedicine tele h. Q.
