the benefits or. that's the power train. is making it happen. this is a doubly newsline from the protests in kenya as president is sworn in for

a second to two applause from thousands of supporters of her of kenyatta promises to unite the country even as police tear gas a position protesters who say the election was illegitimate also on the program international migration crisis is set to take center stage in a new africa summit that follows recent revelations about migrants being sold as slaves in libya. but francis leads me and i laid out some suchi calling for respect for all ethnic groups avoiding the bottom will hinge on. those a coming of shock in germany as a small time matter is they victims of a knife attack hundreds hall style known faces welcoming stance on refugees says he owes his life to members of the public who rushed to save him. and meet the people who say an odd name out of it he said to a.z. and that if you want a real challenge you need to head to and. i'm

phil gail welcome to the program after months of election drama kenya's president uhuru kenyatta has been sworn in for a disputed second term foreign dignitaries were amongst the thousands who attended the inauguration but the political standoff is far from over during the ceremony police clashed with the position supporters who say kenya's president say kenya's president kenyatta his presidency is illegitimate reports at least two people were killed just a kenyatta one october is rerun presidential election which was boycotted by the opposition. it was an inauguration ceremony meant to quell any doubts about who was in charge. with all the trappings of state power kenyatta took the oath of office surrounded by thousands of adoring supporters. that i will protect and

uphold the sole rinty the so run its integrity integrity and the dignity of the people of kenya and dignity of the people of kenya so help me god saul help me all right. but a few kilometers away another fast demonstration of support for this man. he says he's the legitimate president to move. as we said next month on december twelfth we will have a people's assembly that will swear me into office. but as he spoke police moved in to break up the demonstration. the rifle shots that rang out dashed any hopes that today's inauguration would mean

an end to the months of election unrest. d.w. correspondent catherine i want i was in nairobi i asked her why right are doing a has chosen the twelfth of december to be sworn in as president by this assembly of his followers now the twelfth of december is kenya's independence day a very significant day for millions of kenyans so his announcement comes both as a shock to people who support the main ruling party saying that it's probably even just a joke that he's just looking for my legs but then you have his supporters who are saying that they believe that is true and they believe that he is the legitimate president if it is not a job and this happens next week he class himself president what would that mean for. that means trying times ahead that protests be seen on the streets of nairobi and opposition strongholds so we're likely to see more deaths unfortunately today and not the child was killed by

police during the protests that took place at the opposition area in jacaranda so we will see a lot of this probably in coming days but we're also going to see people starting to speak to the issue of secession which is one of the major issues that has been talked about running up to during this current track to the electoral period we have a lot of people from western kenya and from coastal kenya who say that they do not feel part of this country considering that who kenya has been sworn in as president following the controversial election on the twenty sixth of october and following that five constituencies didn't vote in that election now the president to receive the rapturous welcome as he took his oath of office today what did he say about overcoming political divisions. well he extended an olive branch to the opposition so far as just by saying that he is ready for dialogue and he's ready to incorporate dead vision into his new government has he forms his new government in

the coming weeks he says that it was not a competition of evil versus good rather visions and he he says he's the president for all and he would do its best to stick to the old to the constitution but this comes at a time when you know he that's the furthest he's going and people expect except expect him to go a little bit further given that he's the head of state and reach out to the opposition and put an end to the bloodshed and put an end to the tensions catherine wander in nairobi thank you. now for some of the other stories making news around the world ireland's deputy prime minister has resigned francis fitzgerald's departure means the country will probably avoid a government collapse and snap election which could have complicated to bret's it talks between britain and the in european union opposition parties have been demanding that ms fitzgerald step down over her role in the police whistle blowing scandal. authorities on the intonation island of bali have renewed their calls for

away from france's colonial past he said he belongs to a generation but wanted to build partnerships with africa rather than tell it wants to do elaborate to ivory coast tomorrow for the start of an a you africa summit strengthening ties between the continent is high on the agenda as is migration. the european capital was trying to send out some positive vibes at a number of events ahead of the summit in abidjan and at the european parliament high ranking politicians were also trying to find solutions for better cooperation between the continents is opening up the people in the past the europeans had a tendency to look to the east towards russia and china they haven't done enough in africa sure we invested and we are committed but i think we need to strengthen our strategy not just throw money at the problem may be full. by then or that.

the wake up call for europe was the migration crisis more than one hundred thousand africans arrived on the shores of the e.u. this year alone and some estimate that two million more are on the move towards europe the e.u. has been working on a plan to curb the influx and will try to sell it at the summit one of the key aspects of the plan is to fight the root causes of migration in some countries like if yo pia those are political in others like nigeria the main reason is poverty the e.u. also wants to destroy the business model of human trafficking smuggling africans to europe has become a multibillion euro industry. to keep migrants from making the dangerous trek across the mediterranean the e.u. would like to beef up so-called reception centers in the transit countries and finally the e.u. is hoping to reach agreements with the countries of origin to take back those migrants who made it to europe but were not granted asylum. many african countries

want something in return mainly money and legal migration alternatives for their citizens. the females you know we just lack the funding and we have the will to change things but this will needs to be supported with resources our economy is mainly informal to change that we need foreign investment. in new full. day he did business his mom it was a. european countries are we really go they have sunk a lot of development money into africa over the decades like here in chad often with no noticeable improvement but for many on the continent the blame is clearly not entirely africa's. the biggest mistake is that aid doesn't always come with conditions attached and the red carpet is being rolled

out for dictators that are starving their people and corrupting elections while enjoying the respect of the european countries. it could be easy to live his big. money in return for migration control most likely that will be the defining narrative in. the europeans hope that this africa e.u. summit will yield tangible results. let's get more from de w. correspondent philip shelters in the ivory coast city of abidjan welcome young philip what are people expecting to come out of this summit. the expectations are specially on the african side this is not just any eye level meeting it's the most important for room to discuss issues on both continents we just have to look at the numbers five thousand delegates are expected that's a lot of heads of states from africa as well as from europe and also the financial

resources that are made available during those summits usually quite interesting but they are also more and more voices especially in africa that say that those kind of this kind of one sided financial transfers this is just not sustainable and the summit should move away from it so it's a more sustainable partnership between europe and. stay with us you have a phillips report reports about people being sold as slaves in libya have made the big headlines recently it's an issue that's likely to be raised by the europeans that here is the president of the e.u. commission. talking to d.w. about this issue. need to conceivable nor acceptable for europe to close its eyes to this tragedy which is a daily tragedy for so many people children and women the men in libya. i really wanted us to turn all of our attention to this problem at a previous european council meeting i can't sleep easy when i think about what's

happening to those people who went to libya to try to improve their lives they found themselves in hell. and for themselves what kind of the europe do to help solve this problem. human trafficking is definitely the major and the room that one european diplomat told me. after those revelations. in the past two three weeks about the horrible conditions that migrants have to face on their way north it's going to be a top issue i was and i got one of the major human trafficking hubs in the sahara desert some weeks ago and i could witness myself that a lot of migrants sold to human traffic us even before they reached libya so what can europe do i think the international organization for migration is already doing

quite a bit but europe and also africa definitely have to do more i think an important step is to support local security forces that fight human trafficking gangs i know it's not an easy task keeping in mind that a lot of those forces are also quite corrupt but it's a very important aspect if we really want to fight those human trafficking gangs in an effective way down from the shelves in abidjan thank you germany's chancellor i'm going to machall says she is so horrified by month attack on a man known for his migrant friendly policies the attack happened on monday evening in a kebab restaurant in the western german city of the met undress was taken to hospital but later released in twenty fifteen he was awarded an integration prize after taking in more refugees and required under government quote asc scheme a small bandage on the mayor's neck covers the superficial wounds he suffered

during a knife attack on monday evening andreas hold on was in this case shop when he was approached by the attacker a fifty six year old german man. done it in order to show he came up to me and asked are you the mayor. then without another word he drew a knife. he said you let me die of thirst yet you bring two hundred refugees to out and. then he was standing behind me with his knife at my throat because two years ago the city of alternate through its mayor decided to accept one hundred more refugees than germany's distribution plan required for this mayor whole stein was awarded the national integration prize by german chancellor angela merkel state prosecutors are treating the case as a politically motivated attempted murder they say the suspect has psychological problems and was drunk at the time but. so far we have not been able to identify any connections to the right wing extremists. that is any involvement with the

organized extreme right. mayor hall stein announced today that he will continue as before fighting for his open door policy. i did observe rebecca has been in today i asked her how local residents have been responding to this attack. all of them are united in saying that the violence against their mayor is absolutely uncalled for but some were blessed surprise than others about the attack in this and this quiet town some have said they are very that they've been very disappointed with the policies that the mayor has put through not only with refugees but also they feel that he has not been able to revive this sleeping and and demographically dying town one of the mayor's main goals by by taking on more refugees than than the quotas actually were supposed to give this town back in two thousand and fifteen was to help boost the demographics and get more people

into the empty apartments here but three years two years later now the residents are saying they're not seeing the changes and it's created. it's created quite a lot of hurt feelings and people who feel that the refugees who are here maybe maybe taking something away from them although many of the residents were also has a tent to to fully put factual weight behind that argument but it's definitely a feeling that that's going around this the sleepy town what's known of the attack . the attacker was detained by police and authorities are saying that the crime was politically motivated they're also investigating him for attempted attempted murder . what was one of the more interesting things also about this case is that in the stone a lot and where and the and the cup where the mayor went into two workers came and rushed to his aid one of them who was the owner of of the shop and as well his son

and they both sustained injuries as well the mayor himself came by and delivered a large bouquet of roses to the two men who are credited with saving his life from the sale and who has been detained by rebecca and out and i thank you. this is day doubly newsnight from berlin still to come fighting to lose the iranian wrestler who threw away his a victory for political reasons. first let's get to business with the who is tracking the bitcoins record breaking rise we're getting very close to breaking the ten thousand dollar mark fail in the rise this week has been remarkable gaining one thousand dollars since the weekend now bitcoin is the best known of thousands of crypto currency is out there there are others of course and they're all digital payment systems in which the currency is created on privately owned computers using a technology called block chain that means that these currencies bypass the central

banks which also means they can undermine monetary policy offering no protection at all to investors central bankers want bitcoin has no tangible value and is destined to crash is value is determined entirely by supply and demand so it's very sensitive to market developments now in china decided to ban a big corn exchanges in september is value slumped by thirty eight percent which you can see there marked in red but soon it more than doubled again. because one has never ceased to surprise markets and now they want to cash in on the rush the world's largest derivatives market place the chicago mercantile exchange group says it will start offering bitcoin futures by the end of the year in recent days three hundred thousand users are reported to have signed up to bid going bring the total to over thirteen million but it's still quite hard to actually buy things with it a slew of trading platform such as fancy dot com and fast tech dot com offer

everything from armchairs to ferrari's and watches but these are peer to peer sales platforms you won't be able to exchange your bitcoins for that flash b.m.w. in your local showroom but they can buy you some things. there are coffee bars that will only accept because like this one in prague you can book that perfect trip to the mall deaves on expedia with big call ins and speculation is rife that amazon could soon accept big calling for payment. with japan also recognizing bitcoins as legal tender it could be said that the crypto currency is future is looking good so if bitcoin doesn't actually crash it'll probably be only a question of time before the broader economy has to join the rush. and joining us now from new york is jacob any a softie runs the chevy digital assets fund which invests in cryptocurrency is like but he left his job at goldman sachs to do say back in twenty thirty thank you for

joining us jacob now because it is certainly a volatile currency so how wild a ride has it been for you and your funday over the past four years. well it's been a crazy ride for all of us sometimes crazier than others this year in particular but this year's ride has been distinctive because it's been pretty much straight up whereas a lot of us who have been around a little longer remember twenty fourteen when the price of big coin dropped over eighty percent very painful for those of us who hadn't expected a year like this so how high could you see it going and how do you know when it's actually correcting in terms of value because this is uncharted water yes well these are uncharted waters in terms of the price we've never been anywhere near ten thousand dollars before it's only a month and a half ago that it first hit five thousand dollars so that gives a sense of how quickly it's it's happening but if you look at the charts a big coin and you go back to the eight years in or nine years of its existence

there had been passed a tremendous spikes in two thousand and eleven it went from i think from two dollars to thirty dollars and then back down from thirty cents to thirty dollars and then back down below two dollars so it fell more than ninety percent and in two thousand and thirteen when a lot of us heard about the coin i had had a similarly crazy ride up but then also down so the ups have been followed by downs and that's likely to continue do you believe the hype do you think that it could reach over forty thousand dollars for example by the end of next year as some people say. yes i do think that i think there are reasons to think fundamentally it could be worth a tremendous amount in the distant future or even in the near future but that it's just we have to expect a very wild ride between now and then and anyone who is hoping that it will reach that kind of high has to remember it could easily drop by double triple that so it's it's very unpredictable of course a six string me sensitive to news development so i mean how much of your job is waking up in the morning and looking at news developments and getting

a feel for how the currency might move in light of that. yeah that is a big part of my job is just keeping track of what's going on but a lot of it also is longer term developments the short term price movements are crazy in are very hard to predict what a lot of us are more interested in is what is the future of this it is going to be widely used in ten years is it going to be replaced by another computing technology is it just going to turn out to be just a fad that came and went so the long term is a little easier to make out and in the long term i think the future of this technology is bright the ability to send money from one person to another without any organization or company in between is very powerful and i think that has a great future that is to a lot of people that will say pointing out the fact that it's on regulated it could crash and investors could news the lot of i thank you very much take it and he is off he runs the chevy digital fund aid new york my pleasure thanks a lot. well he's something else seeing its prices soar ata

global data prices have risen significantly in recent weeks in front spake is a particularly hard hit they often can't even get their boss orders filled but analysts say much of the bazza crisis in france is homemade caused by the country's inflexible system of pricing and distribution. french croissants what only taste half as good if they were made with less butter but these days parisian bakers are finding it increasingly hard to get enough of it . you know if i order one hundred kilos i get maybe half of that if i'm lucky. and i'm paying twice what i used to eight euros per package instead of four. on the world is going nuts i think not long ago it seemed like there was too much of everything. but now we have a butter shortage. and you would. know nothing. and it's worse for

customers dairies across the country are producing less and what is produced goes mostly to buyers outside the country who pay a lot more. the price of butter has more than doubled on world markets. but french supermarkets will only pay the much lower fixed price they agreed to last year. many farmers think that system of fixed prices is out of date farmers also think french consumers should be willing to pay higher prices the new to more. people are always asking us for more they want sustainable agriculture they want to know what our cows eat into whether they roam freely in the past years and if we meet ecological standards. but all these things cost money and consumers should be prepared to carry some of that cost elected some people. but are supplies are stabilising in supermarkets at the moment but at least one persian baker isn't

taking any chances and the way they see it here during the holidays butter is a key ingredient i need from mars upon it for the traditional cakes i need it for cream fillings. so i'm already hoarding butter so there's anough for the holidays no matter what i'm off on people didn't. find any. prices already reflect the higher butter costs so baked christmas items will be more expensive this year but so far customers are taking the added expense in stride after all delicious pastries are practically part of their national identity. foreign film has your sports news now so let's have a thank you yes a sport meant to promote peace and understanding between people of different nations races and religions sometimes this works sometimes it doesn't now the iranian delegation the wrestling and the twenty three world championships in poland

has caused the scandal a spectator films what happened. this you tube video shows perhaps one of the worst examples of the spokesman like tom don't ever. you raney an alley raiser careening in the blue jersey had a clear lead against. love from russia. then the in ring in trainer by following a blue cube asked for a time out. he had a hefty discussion with kareem e who obviously got a direct order to lose. after that to remain literally stopped wrestling the russian made one point after another and when the match although the iranian was the clear favorite for the title. but kareem he would have had to wrestle against an israeli in the next round which is forbidden for iranian athletes not to show up for the next fight would have caused a fine so greeny just lost instead. iran's sports ministry in

we found out two years ago that she has a heart condition and it has got worse in the last few months. and she only has a year to live there's only one hospital in africa where not surgery is conducted free of charge. i am afraid they won't make it. open hot. in forty five minutes on t w. pope francis is here in myanmar and his visit couldn't come at a more crucial time in more than six hundred thousand muslim or hindu i have fled the country to escape from what many are calling ethnic cleansing well the pope find the right words to address their plight without deepening the religious and ethnic divides that are tearing me and mark part more full coverage of the pope's visit join us here on the w. news. they look like.

they know what we think. and soon they'll even know how we feel. well i'm not a real person i'm still just pieces so who are. scientists around the world are working to measure our emotions. so hopefully i can be a helpful piece assault with. a virtual person as a therapist or a robotic as a teacher neither would have human empathy. what does a machine need to do to create empathy and a medical context when i disclose more information to a person or to computer in this case algorithms instead of feelings measuring emotion starting december sixteenth t w.

this is day w news live from berlin i feel the hell out substory this out presenter who wrote kenyatta kenya has been sworn in for a second term at a ceremony in the capital of nairobi despite this the country's political crisis is continuing police used tear gas against supporters of focus issue leave the rhino didn't get to say the troops say the presidential election was illegitimate. those tips are the high points of pope francis's visit to min mount an address in the capital alongside on songs to change attention was focused on whether the pope would mention the right hand crisis by name as he has in the past from the vatican and some range a is hugely controversial and then not when the majority of the population the first of them as bengalis they've gotten them as illegal immigrants from bangladesh. as pope francis arrived in myanmar he carried with him the hopes of millions around the world even allowing for a small stumble as he disembarked this was

a chance for the head of the catholic church to go face to face with those accused of ethnically cleansing mean mars minority muslim population nor does the ranger during his meeting with the country's de facto leader and son suchi the pontiff called for peace but he failed to mention the word many wanted to hear revenge or that the country's buddhist leadership project. a month in. the form that the future of myanmar must be piece. by. piece based on respect for the dignity and rights of each member of society. respect for each ethnic group and its identity. critics say he has caved to pressure from his hosts the church says it fear the country's catholics would face an temptation the likes of which is no one to the range of most of them

for more than a year hundreds of thousands of them have fled their homes amid violence looting and attacks many end up living in squalor later this week pope francis will hear their stories himself when he visits a refugee camp in neighboring bangladesh. will be w. southeast asia correspondent. is there in the young gone in myanmar i asked her why pope francis held back for mentioning the row hinges by name. i think the pope was under a lot of pressure in the run up to this speech today there where he was pressured by human rights activists by representatives of the into minority themselves by representatives of other muslim groups they all wanted him to use the term role in that because it gives these people and identity and identity that they're being denied by me and my military by the myanmar government and also by some parts

of the population in myanmar so that's why they wanted him to use that term now on the other hand even the cardinal here in me and mark cautioned the pope he said don't use this word because it will it's a very sensitive issue and a lot of emotions are tied to it and it will deepen the divides between the religious religious groups and it will it will make that conciliation of the religious religious groups even harder so in the end it was the pope's decision to make he decided not to use the term maybe because he thought it would do more harm than good phil but he wasn't in the golden mimo thank you. now there had just plight is also the focus of a new online campaign launched by young french activists cocksure of job and his group the love me you can see a lot of. you should be able to see and be felt by the change that picture he

attracted millions of followers online by posting videos to you tube vine and other platforms and his followers to take action today i think about your from a social media team here with will welcome federica what if you've ever shopped so feel right now he's on the ground he is in bangladesh in one of their huge refugees come that's the picture we were oh you know little i let you see earlier that's him so he's on the ground in bangladesh and he has also managed to gather a group of french celebrities. musicians accessor and they've all flown together to bangladesh so they're now there and they would become painting from there and trying to raise awareness and put pressure on international governments and corporations to help with the situation there now these images are that you be seeing in a moment this is not the right video hopefully hopefully in a moment you'll be able to see images from

a live streamed they did today via facebook from the refugee camp that said that that's shown that is a must see who is a renowned french actor and comedian they're joined by a family of refugees and so they're there to really raise awareness and they want to show what life is like in that camp. now that is the main goal as i said is to really have to put pressure on the international. leaders and powers to really like act and say who are they trying to reach well one of the first people that they tried to reach out to today was the turkish president eridu on. as in the past i mean he's been condemning what he calls a genocide of muslims and he has also previously sent food aid to bangladesh. has reached out to are doing today on twitter and he

has appeal. is here he's saying we're asking if the turkish president can help us with our mission please everyone retreat and use the hash tag on help or hinder and within hours that has that was already trending worldwide and the pressure of president actually responded to a dot from his official twitter account pledging support for danish is even saying that turkey will be there are different the resources available that will will be used to help out and of course everyone is just one of the many people that the group have been trying to reach out to they're also hoping to reach other global leaders and international companies such as amazon nestlé facebook they're trying to get them on board and then this push to help the range of this isn't the first campaign from the. know and was actually behind two successful crowdfunding campaign already this year the most important one in march his love army group

minus to raise almost three million dollars for victims of the famine in somalia the money that was gathered back then was then used to buy food that was then flown into somalia and the remaining was given to small n.g.o.s on the ground and in this case now the group has also launched a crowdfunding page on go fund me forward they were refugees they've raised that within just a few hours today one hundred fifty fifty six thousand dollars of one million dollar target and we expect the money to be redistributed in a similar way as they did in somalia and yes. he's a web star in france but he's also someone who has proven in the past that he's able to turn online activism into real change and real results fredricka budget's thank you. now european union decision to extend the license for the controversial weed killer gleiser state could end up complicating chancellor merkel's efforts to

for a new government in germany the problem is that a minister in her conservative bloc made a unilateral decision to vote for the license extension without the support of the government of the government's current coalition partners confuse i wanted to explain. the weed killer known as bligh for saying it has been given the green light for five more years german agricultural minister christiane schmidt paved the way for the extension schmidt a member of the cd used the varian sister party the c.s.u. isn't chancellor merkel's cabinet but he says the decision was his alone. this is an inch i don't this is a decision that the minister in charge must make if he considers it appropriate and i considered it appropriate. i still believe the decision was right. environment minister bob hendrix of the social democrats has always firmly opposed the extension for life or st that's why in germany abstained during previous votes

. the c.s.u. ministers yes vote in brussels is a serious misdemeanor and the eyes of the s.p.d. . this is a serious breach of trust within the government and light of this unilateral and taken decision i ask whether from algal still has a grip on her own people. that. chancellor merkel has spoken with the agricultural minister she made it clear that schmidt violated government regulations. and this did not conform to directives prepared by the federal government in terms of the issue itself and contrast to hendrix i'm more on mr schmidt side by the behavior does not correlate with what is stipulated in the government's rules and procedures. for the chancellor the timing could hardly be worse it comes just as she had planned to

negotiate with the c.s.u. and s.p.d. about forming a grand coalition while the social democrats believe the controversial weed killer damages the environment and people's health the c.s.u. feels it's a practical aid for farmers either way the debate is disrupting talks in other areas. let's talk about those talks in other areas. thomas welcome thomas so how is this likely to affect negotiations to form a new government. well it could seriously affect them if we look at the possibility of those future talks it is still unclear whether there will be those talks initially leaders of the respective parties will meet with the german president on thursday but if they do decide to then have exploratory talks one of the elements that is necessary if you want to form a coalition is trust and it's precisely trust what has been affected by that

decision of the minister in brussels so it will see it'll definitely be a big challenge for angela merkel and the other leaders to try and regain that trust if indeed they're going to try and form a new coalition so is there any doubt the agriculture minister will stay in office there are already calls for his resignation. that's correct and we just heard what angela merkel said they're stressing that this is a situation that can't be repeated and it can't be repeated even if germany now has a caretaker government and this is particularly important bill because as a caretaker government as a caretaker chancellor it is not that easy for angela merkel to simply minister there will be certain rules and regulations there as well but it is the case that the pressure is increasing not only on the minister also on angela merkel herself and so beyond saying that such trust has been broken what other reaction has there

been from the social democrats well they have obviously been criticizing not only the minister of particular also the authority of angela merkel and that is something that they will probably continue to do although at the same time they will be looking at the possible discussions with the conservatives in light of that possible future grand coalition so aspira and parents i think you this is the doubly new still to come. if you don't like the cold this might not be for you we go to antarctica to find out why running marathons there has become so popular. in bollywood epic that has triggered such a pro in india its release has been delayed indefinitely d.w. is kind of helps to pass the story. that we have the wind beneath my wings but we are flying low this is the assessment not of bet midler but the view of the o.e.c.d. day they're assessing the global economy helen helen it is here perhaps to say

about to decode what all this means no i'm just going to tell you what it means when economists get miracle for you phil apparently it means that the world economy is growing at a faster rate than it has and yes but that that momentum is unlikely to last that is the conclusion of the o.e.c.d. report called released today it points to globalization as the driver of growth at a time when protectionist tendencies are growing around the world. is one of globalization's winners they produce fans in germany china india and the us everywhere demand is climbing employees worldwide profit from it is a trend that has been confirmed in a study by the organization for economic cooperation and development or. it states that people in industrial as well as developing countries profit from globalization and the outlook is good the o.e.c.d. estimates the global economy will grow by three point seven percent in the coming

year that would be point one percent more than in twenty seventeen according to the o.e.c.d. the us as the world's largest economy will grow considerably in twenty eighteen but the euro zone's growth will be slowing down at only two point one percent growth that's mostly due to bragg's it and the unsolved debt crisis in southern europe for the first time a decade the world is growing in sync. now this is means none of the large economies are experiencing a recession despite the positive outlook there are some risks an a-list say investments are too low around the world to maintain long term growth and the problem is that in debt the mess of households and corporations has reached record levels in many countries particularly worrying are the high levels and continued growth of corporate levels in china given the importance of china to the

world economy also concern of the high levels of household debt in a number of advanced economies mainly associated with mortgage lending economists are also calling for wages to be raised that way ordinary people can also play a bigger role in driving economic growth. only this year a judge in stuttgart ruled that diesel vehicles could be banned from city centers due to the high level of nitrogen oxide emissions it was a decision with implications for other cities in car loving germany and now janet johnson i'm going to mark his meeting with representatives of those cities to explore options short of an all out ban on diesel vehicles. chancellor angela merkel met with ministers and german municipal leaders in their latest bid to clean up german city air quality this third diesel summit was aimed at deciding how to use a one billion euro environmental phone for greener transport after the stood guard

verdict over the possibility of regular diesel bans in cities communities are fearful of chaos from business and commuters even if some relish the prospect we think focusing on a driving ban is wrong. and that's why we have to do all we can to shut the courts and the e.u. which could also take action against germany but we're doing what we can. besides paying two hundred fifty million euros into the government fund german auto manufacturers pledged in august to overhaul the emissions control software on over five million diesel cars. but environmentalists dismissed that as a gag. we have to equip the dirty details with an effective exhaust gas filter. the government could start with buses and communal vehicles. the current plan to spend most of the fund on digitalisation. is really just a joke that's just. so far cities have seen nothing of the one billion euro fund

at the latest summit chancellor merkel said it would be freed up immediately for investment in cleaning municipal bus emissions and digital izing traffic control systems funding will also be increased in the coming years communities are now waiting to see if berlin will finally honor its promises or if it will be the courts that shape policy on german roads. here it felt. cold up padmavati the speeches of bollywood started to pick up popcorn which is close to widespread the protests in india by hardline hindu groups and subsequently its release has been postponed i can't help step from but the difficulty is here to tell us more about this so welcome i can't. why so

controversial what's it all about ok well the story is indeed very complex the indian filmmaker sanjay leela bhansali based his phil all on the story of a fictional queen and this story is from an epic poem by by malik muhammad jassi so the queen and the the actual action of the story is is happening in the fourteenth century in the poem queen padmini chooses to to kill herself by self-immolation to avoid being taken by this marauding muslim sultan killed ji and this very story has become a key part of raj put history because this of course was how she saved her on her even though this queen had many herself it's not really even clear that she existed a fictional story which has become part of history it's because it's it's taken as the basis for an epic poem all right ok ok so so the poem existed one of the characters existed and namely namely kids but the film was rumored to have a scene with

a romantic scene between me and killed you which of course has hindu groups and a rajput caste organization in an uproar because of a love scene between a muslim and a hindu that's a no no they certainly see it that way absolutely and there's even been very very serious threats from a member of the ruling hindu nationalist party b j p against the lead actress deepika padukone and of course the director himself let's let's have a quick look at at the summary and it'll maybe be clear. he was supposed to come out on december first it's a big budget hollywood production based on the legend of a fourteenth century hindu queen. and a muslim invader. the movie has provoked strong reactions and protests. in new groups and iraq

puts cost organization the movie is an outrageous distortion even though the movie is based on a story and not on historical facts. suraj of india's ruling be j.p. made a shocking offer of a more than one point two million euro reward for the beheading of the lead actress or director. so far the movie has been seen by few outside the immediate production company circle and much of the controversy is based on room. the u.s. trailer shows the hindu queen together with her husband as he prepares to defend his land against invasion.

from other quarters that have been complaints about the trailers apparent portrayal of the muslim emperor as a bloodthirsty marauder. so will the public ever get the chance to make up their own minds. well the talent helps that is here to answer that question for us what is the status of the film because of the release was postponed indefinitely and the film has even been banned in some states in india although there's actually no legal basis to do that the threats even actually why didn't into the u.k. because threats were made to burn down any cinemas that might eventually show the film but i have to add that other members of the b j p have also distanced themselves from these kinds of radical statements and said that they are unacceptable and most recently the supreme court also. dismissed

a plea to ban it's release outside of india so there have also been some protests in support of the film. in the indian film industry was criticised for a little while for being kind of silent about the whole affair but they finally took action and actually earlier today multiple groups of production houses and shooting units staged a fifteen minute blackout for all filming stopped and that was to protest restrictions on artistic freedom so this is really underscoring just how toxic politics in india have become and in the context of this film there is a case of of not distinguishing real historical facts from fictional art that are more of the website sort of people threaten to go knock down as well. so far as the good war on the website kind of helps that fact here but keep an eye on it you're welcome this is the dubliners some breaking news just reaching us that north korea has fired a ballistic missile silo a south korean news agency says an unidentified missile was fired eastward from a south people i'm not going to get on province u.s.
