they d never seen architecture like this ng i imagine it was a whole new architecture language now i stick to a spot of homes for the lecturers called the masters houses were built near the school they all have the same flat roofs and were uniform on the outside inside however the residents could decorate them as they liked often with furniture produced in the bauhaus workshops these were model homes for modern living. rather gropius also won a competition to design the employment office and other buildings in the city. in one thousand twenty eight hummus maya took over as director of the bauhaus it was more political than the o.p. s and coined the slogan the needs of the people instead of the need for luxury the houses with balcony access were based on his one of these was muscle boy or he was only twenty three when he reinvented the chair. flying from silly kandinsky and leo now finding out the many others boyle was a passionate cyclist when out only looked at his handle band thought it was fair he could make a change out of dark or buying some made from steel tubes that s really good i was born of a new father so short of war. we spun the row one further and designed the cantle leverage chair and icon of modernism. from under it capture the essence of what the other chance already hinted at. as just one line of bent to best deal with this cover then uses the elastic cushioning potential of the material alas the mukesh curved with my p.r. it s nuts this is a few dogs. we finished the tour with an interactive installation we can all become architects here creating about house landscape of our own using standard building one. one one. one. one. guy. walking around s.l. one gets easily missed the train car left a snack stand by you just keep your eyes open for it because it s also part of the south legacy it was built in one nine hundred thirty two following planned by the third and last director of the school me son does a lot. right next door and that gets out of our left side and rounds in the ensign phenolic can see. in the year two thousand. grounds of were declared a unesco world heritage site they were commissioned by leopold the third frederick france and duke and how death and just like the members of bauhaus he was trying to combine the practical with the visually appealing only one hundred fifty years earlier the result was a beautiful landscape full of castles parks and gardens. nature and art can bind according to a plan. the third of. also known as prince france created the garden kingdom of decile virgil it s after numerous trips to england france and italy as a young man. in the park and gardens were inspired by those of antiquity as well as england. the promise of virgil it s was the first neo classical building in germany. france was very progressive for the times allowed his subjects to enter both the palace and garden. the whole thing is what special about the building is that it was always open to visitors of a kind of eighteenth century model building with prince funds was also interested in education has got. the garden kingdom attracted guests from all over europe from portugal and russia for example through belief. and of course one of the visitors was johann both going from good to group to. prince france was a supporter of the enlightenment with its ideals of tolerance. and the landscape design reflects there s for example his vista connects a synagogue. with a catholic church. think house has two facades a neo gothic one of the front and one inspired by english tutor architecture at the back like many buildings here. it was designed by the architect fleetingly feel him fi have fun adam strong. learned is the first artificial volcano in europe inspired by the prince s trip to naples when he saw smoldering mount vesuvius. the prince would invite thinkers some scholars to his table he wanted to be remembered as a father figure who would improve line for his subjects he thought that promoting education beyond science new methods by pre-concert could help improve conditions for the people. today about a million tourists visit the canton kingdom each year. this is and it s so wonderful and pleasant to walk around here and take it all in so let it all looks so well looked after in a very natural new but annoying also classical. we d love to stay here forever it just makes you happy to be here so happy. this bus has a special route. and it connects all the bauhaus buildings and deaths at. the round also takes in an employment office designed by biotech o.p. s. the housing estate was built between one thousand nine hundred twenty six and one nine hundred twenty eight the city of death south commissioned about house to design affordable housing. over three hundred terraces were built along with gardens to promote self-sufficiency there are. also guided towards the badasses. their point small at sixty square meters. but the big windows given the impression that there are bigger lighting and light and air. in this kitchen unit is original the stove would have warmed the whole house there was even a laundry at a time when not all homes had running water. new materials were tested. this house by architects and powerlink is made of steel. the prefabricated steel structures were supposed to make it possible to create different types of houses but the steel house remained the only one of its kind. this housing estates served as an example for the later housing complexes of european cities after the war these us students from san diego are impressed by the pioneering designs. i was surprised by the attention that these designers put in the living experience of the people who are going to occupy these homes so for example the ability to expand rooms in the steel house that we visited where the windows are respect to the air in the light the way that the windows would open depending on the climate that you were experiencing at the time every little thing seems to have a purpose this was the design of an entire city like the fact that they were thinking about where people would need to eat and drink and what they would need to eat and drink just the basic necessities in creating affordable housing about houses like not just artistically progressive but also socially progressive and that s a whole aspect that we didn t understand. in tel aviv two people live and bathhouse buildings when the nazis came to power and germany many jewish architects fled to the mediterranean trouble us and with them they brought the ideas of power in the thirty s about four thousand houses were built following the teachings of the revolutionary german design school a al-dabbagh one of our viewers is now going to show us a couple of them as well as many other cool things let s go with a local. so. my name is a video and i have the pleasure to work of you today in my hometown the city where i was born we have a beautiful day out there so please follow me that s explored a city. so first off will be the story part of the city just. we are now in the narrow streets of the beautiful old city of jaffa it is mentioned in the greek mythology and in the bible in the story of jonah and where the romans where he was the crusaders were here napoleon was here the british and now we are it is full of art galleries and stores and restaurants. look at this even this amazing one of my favorite spots in the city sitting here in the story side of java and watching towards the new and modern city of tel aviv i have to come here with my friends drinking view and even take my romantic dates here at night. we are now in atlanta the first train station of tel aviv one of the popular and hard this is the nations of the fifty years you can see so please join me. ditto but today. as you can see we have beautiful weather so everyone is out there our festival is here and the beautiful is. the great thing about it the night that every day morning they have to make you going in for jordan you don t let. a lot of event i know he can vibe in atmosphere i enjoyed the dances thinking together with the dancing it s just amazing it s a great feeling. so of course the visit to the view could not be complete without a visit to the famous to be. great to relax here. and now want to show you something unique about the city that have even those of the white fifteen in two thousand and three you ve got recognition is a unesco world heritage site and that is because we have the largest concentration of both to be thinking toward. also knowing is the city that never sleeps it is the lively nightlife and the famous gay scene so let s go potty and have some fun. let s. elect. and so this was my day ahead of you i hope you. going to grow already by the. body guard. i met in the city park in the middle of desk where the new bauhaus museum is under construction ahead of the bow houses hundredth anniversary celebration. held a press officer for bauhaus death so she s going to show me the building site. the museum is scheduled to open on september eighth twenty nineteen. in the. very young spanish architecture collective designed the museum was for these involved a design was chosen because the structure is so clear and corresponds to our needs so well. expect it with the minimalist glass facade. that s annoying to me spend a ruler. so there are basically two components if we look up now well and you see the suspended ceiling but it s basically a closed box that doesn t have any light and this is what s needed these days. so they won t be any natural lines and it s the complete opposite here on the ground floor where i will show contemporary work. there are still many bauhaus buildings around they have house work. there is no museum in tesco yet there is the original boathouse architecture which is now ninety years old and not all that suited to be a museum of the museum was built to show our collection we have the second biggest house collection in the world over the years it s accumulated and it s now in the. us why is the bauhaus so legendary and. why is it so legendary in the one nine hundred twenty s. it was the only place in the world where young people architects designers artists . all very different types of personalities. they all came together had a common vision to rethink life in a modern way and they broke to blues in such a radical way that they are legendary today. and. so what hidden treasures are still in storage. i mean both going to annette again he tells me what will be on display in the death house museum from next year onwards. what do we have here yes it s very colorful wash paper by oscar sham of course. he painted it in one thousand twenty three and then it stayed in his possession. and i can t really retrace how it came to was but anyway in one thousand nine hundred ninety one not long after german reunification of all the state of saxony and not us bought it at a southern base auction in london. they asked for how much was mad least one million marks that was the currency at the time. because this dress was designed in the one nine hundred twenty five twenty six who in the early tests our era by the student liz forum did you know it was made famous by a photo taken by another student counselor a great photo of a woman sitting on the first jugular chair by marcel boy of. the through the tubular steel chair. and seamus mascot. name for there s never any simple repetition but always an interesting ballads and a lot of attention to. them this surface. when you get close you see it has a three dimensional structure it s not just any flat material that s been printed on it but it s not what women wore as their south the time. in berlin and the one nine hundred twenty s. there were short dresses bearing type carts. and that was real modernism in urban modernism book. the more dharma. no question of. my day in deaths i was almost over time for one last bauhaus highlights the courthouse or granary the restaurant was built by bauhaus architect karl fieger and nine hundred twenty nine its name hints to the locations past as a big grain silo. there s so much power house to see and does how it s impossible to take it all in just one day but a day is enough to get a grasp of the essence of balls as revolutionary ideas and why they were so transformative for the generations that followed almost definitely me back and then the new bauhaus museum will be on the very top of my list but for now that s it thanks for watching and have a. there s go into an official estimates more than one point two million venezuelans and even colombia legally and illegally. already. returned

country just last month desperately in need of water. the searing temperatures calm as a new study warns that the earth could be entering a period in which its ecosystems are irreversibly disrupted. it s been more than fifty years since the state of new south wales in australia has seen a drought like this farmers pray for rain as their crops and livestock die some are forced to shoot starving cattle well others face the prospect of having to simply abandon their land. on the other side of the world a similar story the french of those mountains are simply too dry about half of this farmer s corn crop has already died in the us record temperatures are fueling the worst wildfire in california history the twin blazes dubbed the mendo sea no complex have exploded to cover an area the size of los angeles in less than two weeks. scenes like this are likely to become the new normal according to an international research team s latest study they call the trend hot house earth i said. it s when the climate is much warmer than it is today three to four degrees than it already is four to five degrees warmer than in the pre-industrial climate. international climate targets aim to limit the earth s warming to two degrees celsius but scientists now think even that is too high setting in motion processes which could create a domino effect such as glacial melting researchers argue that without putting in place specific human made climate protections the seas could rise but up to sixty metres so how to curb greenhouse gas emissions scientists say we need to cut industrial carbon travel less by plane and car and eat less meat they say already the earth is on the brink of irreversible warming with severe effects like those in australia the government there has announced a multi-million dollar relief package for farmers but with dry conditions forecast to continue that may not be enough. yes severe weather around the world to talk about that i m joined now by lutes by sure he is a climate policy analyst with the environment and development in geo german watch which is good to have you on the show you know people around the world are asking if droughts wildfires heat waves are all of these connected in some way and are they all connected by climate change it s hard to say for an individual extreme weather event and it s connected to another individual event it s also hard to say if an individual event this was caused by climate change but what they all do have in common what s true for droughts what s true for extreme rain and what s true for the intensity of hurricanes all of that s becoming more likely so the connection here is that manmade climate change the global climate crisis is making these events happening more often and often also in a more extreme way what about this new study warning of a hot hells earth now i was reading the paper today and this is climate change but it s like it s the end of the real scary version of climate change isn t it yes what this scientists look at is what happens if we don t manage to stop global warming at one point we get to tipping points it s like in a domino game you have a domino effect you tip over certain changes in the earth system and then global warming just reinforces itself and gets warmer and warmer and it s hard to stop it and it could lead up to five degrees of global warming it could lead up to ten meters of sea level rise up to sixty meters if you look over several centuries and those would be absolutely catastrophic effects even much worse than what we re experiencing now but climate scientists are not saying that we have reached a tipping point now they re saying that there is still time to reduce c o two emissions and keep the temperature increase below two degrees celsius is that correct that s correct they re saying but reidy dangerously close to those first tipping points in one. if you tip over the first domino you can get you know a spiraling effect and they say that first tipping point is between one and two degrees somewhere so we have to reduce emissions now to make sure we avoid this in the paris climate remit is it enough considering what we re hearing now about hot hells earth the pair s climate agreement says limit global warming well below two degrees and aim for one point five one point five would probably avoid the tipping over these dominoes the problem is not the goal of the paris agreement the problem is governments are not doing enough to implement it so you re saying if the if everything that we see in the paris climate if it were to be abided by and it s here to then we wouldn t have to worry about hot hells earth then we they we could avoid catastrophic loss or was he would be able to say that with certainty. ok so that s the long term in the short term what can people do i mean if you re saying state actors should do more and keep their word but what about non-state actors and just what people in general what can they do you can use energy more more efficiently you can save energy you can. use more efficient appliances you can avoid taking a car or taking a plane all of that helps but at the end of the day we re all citizens in a democratic system and we have to demand that our political decision makers take action because it requires some political decisions to reduce emissions it s very true look it s climate policy analyst with the german watch here in berlin look it s good to have you it s really appreciate your insights and i thank you thanks. well lawmakers in argentina are currently discussing a controversial bill to make abortion legal the debate comes ahead of mean that yes impose itself so it could happen here too in argentina women are struggling for struggling for decades for their rights of illegal abortion what does this tell us then about women s rights in the country right now well i mean argentina is a record of ferdie progressive sexual sexual morality or sexual politics. track record i mean including gay marriage in including things like selective gender assignment and so on and so forth this particular case it s one that doesn t quite cleanly across the lines or through the lines that usually we have debates motive origins which is a woman we discern set of rights and then a disposable former but serial some sort of which the questions that she. have the right dispose of it s very much across the board not only on the right but also on the left idea that it s really about the competition between two different sets of rights the fetus for the baby and the woman the issue here is that abortions are happening and what he s trying to use to side whether how we said that they re going to deal with the reality that he s already taking place. in poll numbers or do we know what the people think is there a majority backing legalization we have a fairly uniquely country i mean also because the country itself is actually divided geographically into some very conservative areas and very progressive arias so when the site is with actually voted or moving a very different direction and. nonetheless i mean the problems also that it is in those states which are further away from the center where most of the cases and the lack of state infrastructure makes this case more and more severe. time and of course there s the factor of you know the pope being from argentina as well our ethics and religion correspondent martin jack as always mark thank you very much. here s some of the other stories now that are making headlines around the world bill russo authorities have arrested several journalists including dortch avella correspondent how the you can be called ski his apartment in minsk was also searched the reason for his arrest has not

electric come a can privately test such as such by eleven percent on the news before trading was hold it for more than an hour on tuesday and wednesday the board of directors said it s going to evaluate the plan. if musk can succeed in taking tesla private it would be the largest leverage buyout in history. musk tweeted on tuesday that he was considering taking tesla private at four hundred twenty dollars a share saying that he d secured funding a deal at that price would represent a price tag of about seventy two billion dollars he didn t say where the funding was coming from shortly after his tweet musk published a letter to tesla employees on the company s blog where he said that going private would be the best path forward and would allow tesla to operate at its best free from distraction and short term thinking going private would also be one way to avoid close scrutiny by the public market musk has feuded publicly with regulators critics short sellers and reporters some analysts believe he would prefer to have less transparency the company is still trying to overcome production challenges which have held up its new model three sedan on which tesla s profitability rests that hasn t stopped musk from announcing major projects like multibillion dollar facilities in china and europe analysts have expressed skepticism at those plans must statements about taking the company private are facing similar doubts but if followed through this could be a make or break moment for the silicon valley company as competition from european automakers is poised to intensify with new electric vehicles from our d. and jag you are with more rivals to follow suit next year. the new york times described him as arguably the most successful and important entrepreneur in the world became c.e.o. of tesla motors in the aftermath of the two thousand a global financial crisis in an interview in two thousand and eleven he said he hopes to send humans to mars within ten to twenty years but who is it on musk and what does he really want. why some have called him the architect of tomorrow others say he s a con man but either way elon musk is a highly intelligent driven individual and the south african born under par new has achieved things many can only dream about in one thousand nine hundred ninety four he founded his first company at the age of twenty four by the time he was thirty have become one of the co-founders of pay pal but mosque is better known for his other headline grabbing projects tesla space x. and hyperloop with tesla musk is revolutionizing the car industry by building electric cars a business for which he has come under pressure the company has spent more than ten billion dollars without ever making a profit but that hasn t stopped musk he wants to change long distance trouble with hyperloop b. idea is to send an electromagnetic lee levitated vehicle through a long pressure tube over thousands of miles. lift off his space x. project is aimed at sending the first people to mars it seems that not even the stars can limit elon musk thirty seconds away from. china has fired back against new u.s. trade tabs it s announced additional import duties of twenty five percent on sixteen billion dollars worth of u.s. goods you know one came just hours after washington said it was imposing you tariffs on chinese products worth exactly the same amount the chinese tariffs will apply to u.s. products such as fuel motorcycles and medical equipment while the u.s. said it was talking industrial products like metals chemicals and electronics the trumpet ministration already slapped new tariffs on chinese imports last month but china s foreign trade has so far shrugged off the dispute exports showed surprising growth in july at moving twelve percent compared to the same period last year. saudi arabia s government is not known for tolerating criticism that the current spat between the oil rich kingdom and canada is escalating into a full blown diplomatic crisis riyadh as canceled its medical treatment programs in canada and will transfer saudi patients to other countries now media reports say the saudi government will also relocate fifteen thousand saudi students from canada the conflict a rose after a tweet issued by canada s foreign minister criticizing the arrests of human rights activists in saudi arabia. for germany has wrapped up a deal that will send migrants who had been registered initially by spanish authorities back to spain spain has become the main entry point for refugees crossing the mediterranean the u.n. says more than twenty three thousand migrants have entered spain so far this year many more than italy or greece to deal with spain the german authorities starting on saturday to reject those refugees who have already been registered as asylum seekers in spain german chancellor angela merkel she wants to reach similar agreements with austria italy and greece. are you to the european athletics championships underway in berlin on thursday germany you put its hopes in discus thrower veto now hers is a story of fighting against the odds she was born shortly after her parents arrived here in germany from angola seeking asylum now after a successful junior career is ready to prove that she is you are best. claudine v.t. has medals in her sights she s already thrown her personal best this year sixty five point one five meters and now she heads into the qualifying round of the european championships in berlin ranks second this is her moment. but i was in the stands at the two thousand and nine world championships in berlin as a fan now i can hardly wait to experience it all down on the field as an athlete and it. reads it was born in one thousand nine hundred six in frankfurt near the polish border have parents fled there from angola and spent many years in a home for asylum seekers they weren t easy times for the family but sports helped claudine to find her way in life and overcome plenty of obstacles including racial discrimination. it doesn t matter what skin color you have as long as you stay true to your roots and your country so i m so happy that i can represent jam he championships. claudine beats it was already a force to be reckoned with youth level she grabbed gold at the under twenty and junior european championships and that s despite her rivals towering over one meter seventy nine peter is a good ten centimeters shorter than the competition in the discus circle. i may be smaller than the others but i have very long arms which gives me a wider radius when i throw. my belief the smaller you are the more nimble you are in the circle. and her coach us could combine those former olympic gold medal winner in shot put make the perfect duo ahead of the competition they re using every opportunity to make minor improvements maybe that ll be enough to help claudine v to bring home a european championship medal. you re watching the news after short break i ll be back to take you through the day. so.
its own you know the fact that motivates me to carry on fighting like against the injustices in the world. it s not as if i m especially angry with the italian groups have been vikas they were actually all on my side we realized that in prison it was just italian government that has gotten worse and. the most of all. back then you wanted to help but you were charged with a serious and organized aiding and abetting of illegal entry you were facing four years in prison when the trial lasted for five years how did you cope with that it can t have an easy. life and no i can t say it was but it s made me what i am today it s good now i know exactly what i wants and i work with all the energy i have and like i m a little bit older to find the injustice in this pack of lies that have been told one of in the same continent if i save people s lives in the same everyone already saying. well done you re not blaming right now the same lies are being spread about the captains of the ngos are going to come between today and he also. sees it isn t that you say you were against and just all of the africans you rescued were deported because they gave false information regarding their country of origin. did you think that was justified or unfair. as of tomorrow and this is what well they waited all the ports i was allowed to stay we don t know why an exception was made as a scene but it doesn t matter what the captain rescues people in distress the sea will be doesn t have to ask where they are from you just ask whether they have a brown or green face he just has to bring them to safety and that s all he is obliged to do it with a fifty i understand you had it was justified if the italians saw this as illegal immigration. absolutely not that would be a different case with and let me bring them to shore they first have to check where you really from do you have grounds for asylum where this was not checked which was a major mistake and breaks every law in the booking us because that s. now many years later the refugee crisis in the mediterranean has taken on an even larger dimensionless according to the un eight hundred people have already drowned this year. in the meantime it looks like private sea rescue operations are the bane of many mediterranean countries. is that an accurate observation to go out of this with you i m afraid it is although a really lovely experience and policies change somewhat because we have to do what we can to support spain on that we can t just say ok the problem to solve spain was sort of that it s a problem with. the german chancellor is just spoken for the spanish prime minister and we re one of the world s richest countries and we should be turning a blind eye considering ourselves safe because we re surrounded by safe third countries. involved in the hunt for. the human but the nuns and the first thing the german chancellor wants to do with other heads of government is the problem of the traffickers who are sending people to their nets in the end is this the right approach isn t acting and that s not at all. let s imagine there was no traffic in the big venue for a while this was the message. will three hundred more refugees around is what i m trying to. so what happens next if you can flip a vixen by being a bit too. bucket of here because people would starve the beaches of north africa instead because they can t get out to sea and. no one would help them you know they would starve there about on a north african beach i don t know what s worse starving or drowning or not seeing the big picture on the fuss about nothing but there s another art to mention some say that all their private rescue ships near the coasts are part of the traffic and business model. tied austrian chancellor court sees it that way when this consular courts rule. he says nobody drowned off the coast of australia because the refugees know that they will get sent back how do you respond to that. but i would say mr kurtz needs to think a little bit harder waldemar we ought to study the world before he comes out some don t statements like that the autumn of two major universities although the oxford years were best to go whether there is a little effect on the yacht a lot of very old rescuers writes in it motivated by them so it s their own studies show that this poll a fact is not exists and we agree it s could do so we have these studies there are also fact based observation since the balkan route was closed no more refugees travelled this way isn t that a valid argument. of course we got very annoyed when the miss you said the refugee problem is have been solved because they put a fence. but we saw pictures of people on the other side accents trying to wash an ice cold water and nobody was helping them to the. border line you re a human rights but no borders when we drove there enough struggling to get food soup because no one else felt responsible kind of anything this is an acceptable government so getting back to sea rescue there was another angle what does the international maritime law say about emergency rescue it says that a captain as a bludgeon to help anyone who is in distress at sea bring him or her to safety that s all there is to it is this new. traffickers exploit this law by using unseaworthy ships with no fuel onboard to trigger a rescue knowing the rescuers are obliged to help. by disease which is on call would see do you feel used by them as a rescuer who does it and that s what i mean. this country in the line of maybe that s the case but my primary concern is human life but the laws are being exploited is a secondary importance and the human life is what matters not borders that s the case you do for me how the n.g.o.s who are helping in the mediterranean might move if the button here does you are a strong advocate of this position and its mission you work on a voluntary basis and you turn down a paid position you are or aren t. you say that no one feels without good reason. does that mean in your view we should take in every refugee mr manhood through thing of. every refugee is life has to be say whatever happens whether they can stay permanently is another matter. we need to amend their asylum laws and see who has a genuine to have fled their country if one comes was told that the flight of the views was let s not bother to rest and to move i don t want to model here by did you. get several efforts are currently being made to create an asylum law and. immigration law so. are you optimistic that this will improve matters. as a woman death and if you combine this with daniel counter our state premier recently said that reason should be created to allow people to stay and if we need them we should cut out the red tape i think it s a great i. think if you draw the line between those who are allowed to stay and those who have to leave. this is a thorny issue people have come here from countries where officially there is no persecution but living conditions are very. good just wanting a better life give you the right to choose where you live. just wanted to. i think so. many times interior minister said my children were in this position i would receive fleeing somewhere where they have a future in my view each individual carefully considered on the for me economic refugees don t exist. just like you nine years ago a german captain is now on trial in america. pay to save two hundred thirty lives with his german rescue ship lifeline. apparently it entered without proper registration. and in general can rescuers ignore the rules. mr. big nice here but i d say if it s a question of human life alone may be violated for. invasion which case. now we have taken the place of the company who was in charge and. they had a formal entry of the torch register and they were registered with. the dutch dispute this up with me in that i spoke to them on the phone myself here in berlin and. they disputed we have the official papers and i have to say that i m not sure. petaling saying get it now the rescue ship has nothing to do with it had been furious with them so that s it but nothing solved he got and. you also broke a law back then which made the whole cop on a more rescue mission very controversial in germany if you introduce the salient cord without permission do you regret that today but once it does what you want me not at all. and the poets i know there was a very risky situation on board a ball that people were all very agitated to an exhausted. lot of and they could have said we ll take over the ship with thirty seven young man on board it wouldn t have been too hard on the like you just head for the beach. it was an imminent threats but as a captain do you have to think ahead and we didn t just answer the forcing we approached the boys i threw down the anchor and then everything took off it s official our survival from the portal to arrive then the pilots. in the god. i register my arrival at an italian forces a german ship all and first the authority said yes it s time for seven days they wouldn t tell us when they had decided not to let us in here on target it s all politics just politics. let s put it to. you say that rescuers can ignore. the german interior minister and disagree with him you wrote him a letter and he replied what was that about who can ask me answer the first letter about what is politicians doing very vaguely but what did you want from him. i want to clarify things and support the n.g.o.s in the mediterranean the criminal minds of the then one of his pyramid secretaries i think it was mr vineberg i answered your fault there s no point telling me what he said as it was totally meaningless. that s why i do believe didn t get picked up in a second but i sense that we sent this letter will be made public that s why when the for the he didn t reply to that one that you re still waiting for a reply yes we would like to speak to him personally that could perhaps we can talk again when you get an answer. because we ve reached the end of our interview mr schmidt and as always i d like to ask you to quickly three sentences italy s judiciary calls me a human traffickers. but i see myself and. his helper. if i were in this situation again i will fall back again immediately. but. people don t stop dying in the mediterranean the first thing germany should do is the police support the rescuers. as mr smith many thanks for the interview you re welcome please. believe. we make up oh but we watch as afaik the un does that shit but we are december so hopelessly. they want to shape the continent s future it s hard to enjoy negative numbers as they share their story and their dreams and their challenges of the seventy seven percent platform for africa charged. with different languages we fight for different
and now these papers are coming out and of course if you look at the british press there is a certain amount of panic and brussels they just look on and said all right they need to compromise if they will still want a deal and so far we don t see anything now both sides seems to be taking in the perspective to hope for the best prepare for the worst we heard you can break that secretary there early you re a democrat expressing optimism that a deal will still be reached between the u.k. and the e.u. from brussels perspective where you are do you think that optimism is well founded . in brussels the position is that they can t really move much more than they have already moved there is still the willingness to do the deal was britain but certain things that treason may once cannot be done a customs union for instance that s not really a customs union particularly deal for good stead cross borders on and not controlled and so on and so forth there s a whole range of things that reason may can t move on and that brussels says she needs to move on and so they totally at caltech purposes and no side can really sort of let go of their principles and what happens in a case like that and this is what really dominic rop was talking about things go badly in the end everybody sort of slams the doors and then we ll see and then emergency contingency plans of course come into play and we ve seen this first set of today and barbara u.k. abridgement secretary of dominic robert sure britons that they would continue to enjoy their bacon lettuce and tomato sandwiches no matter what what brussel stand in the way of a british b.l.t. sandwich in the event of a new deal it might indeed it might indeed because what will happen is that there might be some rather wilted lettuce and tomatoes in the scent but after they ve been sitting in a spanish truck and call a in the hopper for three days so britain might as well have to sort of return to homegrown delights and probably probably consider something like a corned beef and cabbage sandwich are you know their creativity to be let loose at this point but it s an indication of what really is at stake here and of course seriously british business is quite blurry it. barbara starr reporting from brussels thank you. all right let s bring you up to speed now with some of the other stories making news around the world. protesters have marched in downtown nairobi kenya to demand the release of an opposition lawmaker in neighboring uganda protesters put out the call to see bobby wine a pop star turned lawmaker who

officials say the thirty six year old man was shot dead by police after the attack islamic states wishfully claimed responsibility but provided no evidence of a link to the nice man. the u.s. has slapped a twenty five percent tariff on sixteen billion dollars worth of imports from china a second round of duties in response to what the trumpet ministration calls beijing s unfair trade practices on china reacted swiftly with this own levies on over three hundred american products that could spell tough times for american regions that explored billions worth and products to china one of them is the city of wichita the brookings institution says no other metro area in the u.s. is being impacted more by the u.s. china trade routes you know he s always on a phenomena visit which is tom and filed this report. from handrails an ally for the invasion industry. and his driver own two sister companies in wichita that over a wide range of an aluminum front however since have been strong decisions it s becoming more and more difficult for the brothers to calculate their contract big impact for us we re dealing in about six months we re now about if. we didn t affect our market but we have to be very careful in how we get projects to get a project let s say in january and then goes up thirty percent by march in your bid is not very good anymore and i m going to hurt a lot harder tear of taxes on imports and exports says karen page c.e.o. and president of kansas global the hard core twenty five years he s been working to help local companies to improve their position in global markets now she has to deal with more and more businesses suffering from crimes trade policies it we re hearing from companies that they may have to lay off people they can only absorb you know the head on their profit margins for so long and then they ll not be competitive competitive they can t sell think can t sell they have to lay off. according to a recent analysis which. should tell with that spoke aerospace manufacturing and agriculture as more exposed to chinese terrorists than any other us metro area but it s not easy to find business people ready to talk about that some of them made off camera that they don t want to be seen to contradict president in this deeply conservative state for now many manufacturers here say they re holding their own but with one in four dollars in which the us economy coming from exports to tariffs are expected to have a huge impact an estimated twenty thousand jobs are at stake and at the moment it s the farmers who are paying the biggest toll one of them is keith miller at third generation farmer he s been in the red for the last two years now he s afraid of losing china as the mob could run despite the fact that he saw it beings are doing just fine. current prices that we are receiving are and you are from a dollar to two dollars less than there was three months ago and it s cause enough for her real concern whether we re going to be able to get those prices back in the near future and we re we re definitely worried about the worth of the income is going to come to the fore nevertheless keith miller still supports. his the first president fighting for you ask interests he says the farmer hopes that trump can strike a deal with china and most of all miller hopes that this will happen soon. and also the trial resumed today of the captain of a german aid ship detained after rescuing migrants in the mediterranean but the hearing lasted just a few minutes before being delayed once again for procedural reasons and late june the crew of the lifeline spent six days at sea with over two hundred thirty refugees on board it leaves new government closed its force through the ship eventually allowed the lifeline to dock but only after several countries agreed to take in a share of the refugees maltese authorities then impounded the ship and charged its captain klaus pitts a harsh with failing to properly register the vessel while irish insists he s done nothing wrong and says he hopes the trial will not drag on much longer we met up with him at his home in southern germany klaus peter highish had a comfortable life and bavaria he has a nice house and runs a successful small business but did not want to be complacent so he became a captain aboard a search and rescue ship in the mediterranean and that is now why he is facing legal proceedings in malta. of course this is an unpleasant situation but i go to court with my head held high i have to say we didn t do anything wrong on the contrary we saved people s lives and i gladly take responsibility for this. at the end of june and his crew aboard the ship lifeline rescued more than two hundred thirty refugees after that their own odyssey began the lifeline was not allowed to dock anywhere and instead had to sail aimlessly for days it ended up in malta where the ship was impounded it was taken in for questioning by police the accusation the vessels papers were not in order to. it s very strange that we re not talking about saving people s lives right now but instead about the boats registration which is supposedly not valid this would mean we could not sail under the dutch flag even though it very clearly states this on the certificate flag dutch home port amsterdam. at home in bavaria klaus peter uses his time between court appearances to keep in touch with his network of supporters. a lawyer you akim fella is providing legal advice. feller cannot comprehend that rescuers are being treated like criminals. this stuff that as a lawyer i thought well this case is very unusual a person was rescued people at sea has been detained. for a very dubious reasons in my view smith s. body shining. lives in an affluent town in one of germany s wealthiest regions the refugee dramas of the mediterranean seem far away although klaus gets a lot of sympathy here for his work he sometimes has difficult conversations. here now is this is what i experienced at an ice cream parlor a man made me ask him if he favored letting people drowned and then he said yes if he were the captain he would simply run over people in the city. you can t reason with someone like that at the thought of i thought of god. before his next court appearance. is working on a mini bus that was donated for his team and the activists are now collecting donations for a new ship they do not want to wait until authorities release the lifeline together
the rules do not cover and traffic however airplanes would not be permitted to fly from the u.k. into e.u. airspace and vice versa that would have a knock on effect disrupting the delivery of food stuffs britain imports thirty percent of its produce from the e.u. u.k. supermarkets could feel the pinch rob was eager to allay fears of a food shortage critically important issue so let me assure you that contrie to one of the wall the claims you will still be able to enjoy b.l.t. of the brics it and there are no plans to deploy the army to maintain food supplies . health care services and the finance sector could also be his british citizens living in the european union could lose access to their u.k. bank accounts should recognise that rob is sticking to his daniel tammet mantra adamant that the u.k. is ready for bracks with or without a deal very much. all right let s pull in our correspondent bob of angel she joins no deal and that is something that is a thought that british the british government nobody really seem to entertain now finally they get into gear to make contingency or to say emergency plans and so brussels of course gets the feeling that yes they re looking at reality now and they might then and the next step may be ready to move again and it s hard to understand the reasoning isn t it if you ve always breaks it with a new deal is not an option why would you even publish these guidelines to begin with but despite that you ve got the u.k. brits and secretary dominic robb saying he s optimistic that a deal will be reached from brussels perspective from where you re city do you think this kind of optimism that we re hearing in london is well founded. optimism is certainly misplaced because from the e.u. perspective what needs to be and what needs to happen is that the british side needs to move again the reason may has put her latest proposal on the table before the summer and that s the so-called checkers paper is something she cooked up with her cabinet in her country seat checkers and the e.u. side looked at it and said what she says about friction is traffic customs union and a market for goods that is not palatable to us we can do that that is against our rules so brussels is waiting for further compromises or to take britain taking a different tack however nothing is to be seen so really what they re doing when they re meeting each other here and now and are continuing now in the weekly basis is just running in circles and so optimism is misplaced at the moment. so what about the likelihood of a new deal. seen in brussels. the problem with the no deal breaker brand is the timing and the timing works for it are even assembled made in northern france and that won t have many anymore after brights it of course and if they had brits don t mind a bit of wilted lettuce and some of the tomatoes then of course they will continue to have they be o.t. because it will be stuck in trucks. still for however maybe for britain it s the best idea to go back to the good old british pork pie know that that might be the future of the united kingdom and we know it is all about nostalgia and the times my goodness but i don t know how hungry i am anyway just by that i ll say thank you and he will in brussels thank you. well it happened exactly as expected the u.s. has left more tariffs on chinese goods and china responded in kind of this is the second round of tariffs from the trumpet ministration a twenty five percent tariff on sixty billion dollars worth of imports china s latest tariffs are aimed at three hundred american broad. new negotiations couldn t prevent the latest turn of the screw so far the u.s. and china have each imposed import duties on goods worth around fifty billion u.s. dollars now american companies in china i getting on the easy to meet issue that our companies think about is the uncertainty that the conflict brings uncertainty isn t good for business it limits your ability to invest in new developments in a country that impacts your ability to hire new staff u.s. president trump is not just attacking the trade deficit with china he s also fired shots at beijing s industrial policies accusing the chinese government of paying high subsidies to companies in the tech sector like robotics and out official intelligence sectors hit by tariffs starting to hurt on both sides like at this market in beijing many have stopped ordering agricultural products from the. u.s. because they ve become too expensive the new g. d s also affect items like turbines and chemicals china s retaliation targets included room materials like coal and gas in china two engines of the of the world economy if if if this trade will lead to and. it will slow down will shut down i mean that could be disastrous to the world despite strong resistance from within his own country trump is already threatening new sanctions on chinese goods with two hundred billion us dollars taking effect as early as next month. what are the regions of the us where manufacturing in farming depend on chinese demand these tariffs well their economic poison and nowhere is this tariff toxicity greater then in the city of wichita in the state of kansas the brookings institution says no other metro area in the u.s. is be impacted more by the u.s. china trade. alexander phenomenon visited wichita. handrails and alloy. and his brother own two sister company in wichita that over a wide range of aluminum. over shouldn t have been strong decision it s becoming more and more difficult for the brothers to calculate their contracts the big impact for us deal in about six months. if. we didn t affect our market but we have to be very careful not to project your project let s say in january and that goes up thirty percent by march and your bid is not very good anymore and then the current terror of taxes on imports and exports says karen paige c.e.o. and president of kansas global twenty five years she s been working to help local companies to improve their position in global markets now she has to deal with more and more businesses suffering from trauma treat. it we re hearing from companies that they may have to lay off people they can only absorb you know the head on their profit margins for so long and then. be competitive competitive they can t sell think can t sell they have to lay off. according to a recent analysis which should tell with its focus on aerospace manufacturing and agriculture us more exposed to chinese terrorists than any although us metro area but it s not easy to find business people ready to talk about that some of the meat off camera that they don t want to be seen to contradict president in this deeply conservative state for now many manufacturers here say they re holding their own but with one in four dollars in which the us economy coming from exports to tariffs are expected to have a huge impact an estimated twenty thousand jobs are at stake and at the moment it s the farmers who are paying the biggest toll one of them is keith miller at third generation farmer. he s been the rat for the last three years now he s afraid of losing china as the market drops despite the fact that he s doing just fine. current prices that we are receiving and you are from a dollar to two dollars less than there was three months ago and it s cause an oscar for her real concern whether we re going to be able to. get those prices back in the near future and we re we re definitely worried about how we re income is going to come to the fore nevertheless keith miller still supports . his the first president fighting for you ask interests he says the farmer hopes that trump can strike a deal with china and most of all hope that this will happen. well the trade conflict with china is just one of many possible explosive devices in the us president trumps political minefield two days ago trump former campaign manager was convicted on eight charges trump s former personal attorney michael cohen surrendered to the f.b.i. and admitted to several counts including bank fraud he also said under oath that trump had ordered him to commit a crime by using campaign funds to impact the outcome of the us presidential election well now the editors of time magazine have released the cover of their latest edition with the two words in deep the image shows the body of presidents from trying to swim in an oval office submerged in water after this week s black tuesday for trump the new time cover speaks to a white house administration inundated with crises some of them an existential threat to the presidency. or trump is firing back at the accusation made by his former attorney yesterday on fox news s of fox and friends he denied any wrongdoing but listen and pay attention to the word most sitting presidents would never a wild across their lips in public seventy six days away from the midterms hard to believe if the democrats take that power do you believe they will try to impeach you. but you know i guess it says something like high crimes and all i don t i don t know how you can impeach somebody who s done a great job. i ll tell you what if i ever got impeached i think the market would crash i think everybody would be very poor. because without this thinking you would see that you would see numbers that you wouldn t believe in reverse all right going to take the story out of washington our bureau chief alexander phenomenas on the story for us good evening to you alexandra we heard it there used the word impeachment extraordinary for a sitting president to do that is he issuing a threat here. well it sounds like a threat like a warning don t you know there are two that are wise you are going to pay the price and that is i would say at trump s usual strategy to tack to bully his critics his opponents to threaten them and to make up stories but this is also a message to the republican voters to his supporters and their hope to mobilize them to try if them to the polls by this prospect that the president may be in political peril and so he s sending this message saying them you have to vote for for me in the midst elections to prevent democratic party from taking over the house because if that happens that s really it s possible that we are a very likely that we are going to see impeachment proceedings starting them and i was introduced interview it comes on the heels of the plea deal by jones former a complaint fund or from a private account. and then there is attorney general job search and see who has watched back to date saying that justice will not be influenced by politics know how significant is this alexander. i think that this is very significant not the fact that trump once again criticized criticize sessions but the fact that sessions this time hit back normally he would he wouldn t response to the president s criticism he would just continue work at the justice department so the fact that now he is pushing back it s very significant and we have to remind ourselves that sessions was one of the earliest and most high profile supporters of presidents try and he might be now in jeopardy there are some republicans already talking about it that that the president might fire sessions after that mitt s terms all right of course when alexander phenomenalist we ve always denied in washington the example thank you very much. well despite the unprecedented challenges facing the european union just think of bricks from the u.k. and migration and border control along the mediterranean the e.u. remains one of the world s most sought after clubs in fact countries are waiting in line just for the chance to apply for membership well that includes the former soviet republic of georgia germany s chancellor is visiting georgia and the country s president is presenting his case for joining the e.u. and nato but the west is reluctant to antagonize neighboring russia and today chancellor merkel rejected any fast track membership for georgia. well in the one visit calls for a more liberal georgians sorry the have been growing louder tbilisi s l g b t community is spearheading a pushback against hate crimes and reactionary politics he surely reports. this is the soundtrack for social change in georgia. tech no clubs like he d. into b.b.c. are part of a movement pushing for bt rights and to ease the country s unusually strict drug laws they re islands of freedom in a conservative post soviet society. club culture is growing very fast but. the years changed. to people who. many. people like. strange. don t deserve to be part of this society so. change. to change. dancing became political in may after armed georgian police raided two of to be most renowned clubs gallery and looking for drug dealers in response to what many saw as the heavy handedness of authority hundreds took to the streets to protest the government and to fight for progressive values by down say. gay rights activists live on video need to organize is a regular night at one of the clubs that was raided he says the community often faces abuse and violence in georgia and that s why they are a key group in the push for a more liberal society community as well as other groups have enjoyed the any is a safe space as a space where they can enjoy still a very quality freedom. well which is quite lacking outside of the us the and in those club scenes it s very conservative outsides and though the club race for presenting this threat to the safe environment george appears to be at a crossroads between its past and its future but conservative forces including the georgian orthodox church are also very powerful in the country and in recent years several nationalist groups of appeared on the georgian political scene. is a musician and he s also the co-founder of the ultra nationalist movement georgian march which has rallied crowds against migrants and for what she calls traditional family values but that she really feels georgia is losing its national identity to western liberal values. we want to know why pushing towards why are we rushing towards darkness when we can t see anything. saying georgia is european country is absurd this is the caucasus country. at the start of. a candidate from georgia in march will be running in georgia s presidential elections in october but with different groups and generations pulling the country in different directions it will likely take much longer for georgia s future to take shape. well it is being hailed as a giant leap forward for weather forecasting after sixteen years of intensive planning a new satellite has been sent into orbit to monitor wind patterns around the globe . speaking out tonight when. a rocket carrying the satellite blasted off from the european space agency s space poured in french guiana it s been named eolus after the keeper of the winds in greek mythology scientists hope the data collected will help to more accurately predicted stream weather and climate change which. and back here on earth the day is nearly done but as always the conversation
