algorithms instead of feelings measuring emotion starting december sixteenth on t w . this is news live from berlin under pressure in europe over the status of jerusalem
7:01 am
israel's prime minister shows no signs of compromise drucilla has become the reason it's going to resume for three thousand years it's going to be jewish gave. away warnings that recognition of jerusalem as israel's capital is a threat to peace netanyahu says palestinians must get to grips with reality also coming up global arms sales are on the rise for the first time in five years. the most and the most. also kremlin insider are crusading outsider hits the campaign trail with the former reality t.v. star who standing against vladimir putin she says she wants to create a new and different russia. also coming up in the next sixty minutes and winter hits europe with a vengeance heavy snowfall across the continent creates a winter wonderland for songs but. travel chaos for most. in the bundesliga
7:02 am
a blizzard of goals and blizzard conditions in cologne but the team's former coach was feeling the warmth at percy dortmund after getting a surprise call. i'm serious oh my god i thank you for joining us we start with fresh fallout from u.s. president donald trump's decision to recognize arisa long as israel's capital israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu who welcomed trump's decision is visiting brussels he is expected to come under pressure from the european union to revive the middle east peace process on sunday he met france's president in my one home and it was clear the two leaders did not see eye to eye. a shake of hands and an embrace french president emmanuel mccaw greets israeli
7:03 am
prime minister benjamin netanyahu in paris just spots for warm welcome and smile was for the cameras they are two leaders at all sharply divided over the u.s. decision to recognize teresa long as israel's capital. when they appeared before the press various differences became plain my call called president trumps move a dangerous threat to peace and urged netanyahu to negotiates with the palestinians he should. i would tell him give a chance to peace and make a gesture towards the palestinians peace doesn't depend on the united states on one side and friends on its own it depends on the ability of the two leaders on israeli and palestinian to make it happen. and if given a chance. netanyahu dug in against the criticism. it's always been our capital jerusalem has never been the couple of any other
7:04 am
people so i think the sooner the problem students come to grips with this reality the sooner we will move towards peace and this is why i think president trump's announcement was so good storch and so important for peace. but that peace is unlikely in the current atmosphere. the u.s. embassy in beirut a sign of a rage against u.s. president donald trump seems like they suggest it won't be easy to defuse for now global outrage netanyahu says next stop is brussels well he'll meet with foreign ministers from the european union. more on this story now with our correspondents on the ground meyer schwager is in jerusalem. is in brussels good morning to both of you max let's start with you in brussels many leaders there are opposed to trump's move recognizing jerusalem as israel's capital so what do foreign ministers want to get from benjamin netanyahu. i think the foreign ministers don't expect to
7:05 am
get much of netanyahu at all because that he's known to them we know his stance on the european union he's criticized the e.u. repeatedly over the last years as being too palestinian friendly just when he left for this trip he did it again accusing the e.u. of hypocrisy saying that they have a double standard condemning the recognition of jerusalem as a capital by the u.s. but not condemning rocket fire by the palestinians so they're probably happy if there's no diplomatic incident here now if the relationship were different if it were reasonable expectations would be to restart the middle east peace process for example to announce something like the freezing of the. israeli settlement building that something by the way that in minute with my call the french president asked for on sunday but the way things are they're probably happy if there's no diplomatic incident well we saw in our report that netanyahu was
7:06 am
meeting with the french president was pretty tense coming to you know what is netanyahu looking to gain in brussels. well as max said he's not walking into the friendliest room and that's you know it's also known as a very compromising figure on the international stage so likely what he's going to do is simply walk in there as he said with his head held high and he's looking really just look strong in front of all of these e.u. ministers who he does not regard as diplomatic friends and he's looking to say hey look i've won this victory the us has handed this to us and now this is the new reality and everyone has to accept this the e.u. is definitely not an easy room for him but it's also going to raise the question of who can start a peace process again if not the u.s. this is sort of the little key question of an underlying that in this entire series of events for the past few days on the ground in israel was if the u.s.
7:07 am
is not considered an impartial broker any more could the e.u. maybe be even if they are considered pro palestinian mechs ups put that question then to you now is that you even prepared to step in as a mediator. the european union took itself out of the game some years back when obama was president in the united states let the obama administration take over so for them it's hard to step back in now especially because they're not all on board all the different countries from the european union let me give you an example the chief diplomat of the european union wanted to condemn the recognition of jerusalem as the capital by the u.s. that would be federica more greeny in the name of the european union but hungry said no we don't want to do this so she had to condemn it in her name now the czech republic apparently was ready to follow the u.s. in the recognition of jerusalem that was prevented by the other member states but it shows you that they're really not all on board for the same thing and on top of that you have the rise of anti-semitism in many countries in the european union
7:08 am
something we should not forget for example in germany but especially in france that probably is not building any trust with israel so if they really wanted to get back into the game it would require a lot of work a lot of unity also on the side of the european union and meanwhile maya palestinian president mahmoud abbas has reportedly refused to meet the u.s. vice president mike pence during his middle east trip later this month is that part of a larger palestinian strategy. well insofar as there is a palestinian strategy perhaps but we have to remember that there is no peace process that we know of that's on the table right now there are no ongoing negotiations other rumors of some nasa and new u.s. plan that may be put forward in the coming weeks or months with the u.s. coronating with saudi arabia but right now this move by the u.s. has really thrown all the usual players back on their heels and this move by abbas
7:09 am
to not meet to meet not meet vice president heads really just seems like a defiant gesture of we reject the u.s. as any sort of mediator in this region as any sort of partner to anyone in this region we also have to remember abbas is old and he is not very popular among young palestinians so any move that he makes is going to be very closely scrutinized not only by the israelis but by his own people dia views my ash waiter in jerusalem and max hoffman in brussels thank you both now to some other stories making news around the world venezuela's president nicolas maduro has banned key opposition parties from next year's presidential election he claimed the move was based on the party's decision to boycott mayoral elections in on sunday the opposition was protesting at what it claims is a rigged electoral system. a major flare up in southern california as largest

war. as the norwegian royal family looked on the chairwoman of the nobel committee and at them their price. it was an emotional moment for the activists the nobel committee has recognized the decade long campaign to secure a ban on nuclear weapons over one hundred countries have signed a treaty to that effect but the world's nuclear powers including the united states haven't yet and neither has north korea a moment of panic or carelessness a misconstrued comment or a bruised ego could easily lead us to the destruction of entire cities the story of nuclear weapons will have an ending and it is up to us to decide what that enemy will be. will it be the end of nuclear weapons. or will it be the end of us. the ceremony was attended by survivors of the

7:13 am
a world with fewer weapons and global arms sales are on the rise for the first time in years the stockholm based international peace research institute sipri is just published its annual report it says world wide arms sales total more than three hundred seventy four billion dollars in two thousand and sixteen now according to the data the united states is by far the biggest weapons manufacturer with u.s. based companies accounting for more than half of all arms sales now the united kingdom and russia follow the u.s. in weapon sales but their numbers are significantly lower let's speak to our floor and she is the director of the arms and military expenditure program at sipri she joins us from stockholm good morning ah thank you for joining us why are we seeing this rise in global arms sales now is it related to armed conflict. to a large extent arms procurement and arms demand kens to be related to increasing tension conflicts and upper military operations so yes indeed for some of the countries for
7:14 am
which we've seen increased in arms tilts in a companies when their companies it can definitely be attributed to. geopolitical situation geopolitical situation in the world however is some of these are also linked to our model musicians program some of these countries have old fleets that we wish to renew so part of it is also due to we need to change old equipment for a new warrant quitman so ghostly drivers can actually explain the rise in ourselves disappear what about the fact that the u.s. for example has been putting pressure on nato member countries to increase their defense budgets is that also a contributing factor. not necessarily at this point it would be too early the commitment to increase to two percent of g.d.p. has been made very short a short time ago therefore it will take time if it happens it'll take time before
7:15 am
you can actually translate into actual spending and end of share of that to the person that's going to be dedicated to the german acquisition of weapons remains a little bit we don't know actually how much of it will pay for actual weapons for these countries so at this stage there is pressure to increase a lot of the european countries have mentioned that we would increase their military spending part of it is also to support our chairman programs but it's still in the announcement so if i could say one of those european countries is germany where we are and they are actually among the leading arms export are sore they sell into n y. well most of the arms companies actually their main customer is the national ministry of defense and that's the primary customer that's the one that supports their two eighty and otherwise there are exports that are being made we have not updated our arms transfers data yet that germany has
7:16 am
exploited. in countries in europe. in denmark in the chain think and also in countries in north africa in the middle east algeria where was a customer of some of their ships but. manufacturing pay decent qatar instance now how transparent is the global arms industry is your apparent the report is you're insecure be able to track a legal arms trade. not exactly we don't actually. institute's track illicit arms straight especially when it relates to small arms and light weapons we don't we couldn't we focus on trade that is only just cement and that has been announced so most of the time for which would have information when we catch. transactions on deliveries of systems and you know what i'm straight for you do make a note of it and we mention it but it's not the focus of our warchest at this date
7:17 am
all right i've flown around with a cypriot in stockholm thank you very much you. you're watching d.w. new still to come on the program winter arrives in europe bringing travel chaos to the roads railways and airports but not everyone's cursing the heavy snow fall. and in the bundesliga a blizzard of goals and blizzard conditions in cologne will bring you all the action from sunday's frosty game. but first to helena has business and helen a bit calm is entering a new era is certainly is with the future is now being tradeable i have to say that the circuit breaker already had to be hit twice yesterday is all now tradeable they were on the chicago board options exchange less than twelve hours ago trade is a placing their bets as to where they think the virtual currency will be come january with one of those futures contracts surging to more than eighteen thousand
7:18 am
dollars some expect the derivatives to stabilize the price others say the bubble is still set to bust. it's a move some say could propel bitcoin from the fringes to the forefront of finance. the futures markets allies traders to speculate on the cryptic currencies priced at a later date something which could increased ability but also push the price down from the dizzying heights of where it's been i think argue a correction and i suspect the correction will happen when the futures markets come online and so my suggestion is to kind of wait and see what happens i think that if you're investing though for the next two years or three years then the difference between the price now and the price in a week's time may be irrelevant some say that bitcoin might not even be around to the next two to three years though it's notoriously volatile with warnings that it may self-destruct and it's not backed but some believe the impact of block change
7:19 am
technology will be lasting whatever you might think about group occurrences the reality is that the technology behind it which is the blog is here to stay if i can make a kind of a comparison is more like the dot com bubble that we had early two thousand. while everybody was getting rich just having you know a dot com on the web side but even after the bubble girs the internet is still there we have facebook google so the technology behind it is here to stay already opinion is divided over whether the trading of futures will prove the making or the downfall of the digital darlin. fair trade based on fair rules that's a principle delegates attending the world trade organization conference in the argentine capital one is odd as it can agree on what that looks like depends on who you ask event kicked off on sunday under a count of us who are still a t two multilateral trade deals and there are more food issues to tackle as well including

embark on a recruitment drive for professionals with experience abroad including in germany seem that. the german market is very important for us so we need people who have good germany who understand the culture and can relate well to customers. exit or was among several companies which recently took part in the jobs fair in the german city of munich it had a specific target attracting skilled basque workers home the event was organized by an agency called b. sky a talent which helps companies recruit staff around the world. we're looking for people who have left the basque country for their careers but are familiar with our culture. we then connect them to companies which can tell them about the opportunities available. with the spanish economy improving jobs are opening up earlier this year engineer who lay in a bus has left her job in hamburg and returned to her home the move was arranged by this guy a talent. back when i graduated the job prospects were very poor that
7:22 am
applies to positions as well as pay. to have it done. now there are more and better paid jobs available. economy coming to. us companies say recruiting abroad also saves time. since the people have been abroad specifically in germany they understand both cultures that's a big advantage compared to people who've only studied here and have to pick it all up on the side as a company we want to take advantage of this and. the talent scout in your peers to be working the companies have been able to pick the interest of many professionals ready to return home. i gather enough experience to broaden i want to go return to my friends and family . that was the most important thing for me. but i mean
7:23 am
thousands of spaniards have already returned home bringing with them valuable skills. well now back over to see me and see me not an encouraging milestone for press freedom really that's right on a sunday actually marked the three hundredth day in a turkish prison for the turkish german journalist and uncle as accusing him of terrorist propaganda but the german government says he's been detained for political reasons his new spit newspaper says your child is being held in a four by three meter south much of the time he's being kept isolated from other prisoners hundreds of human rights activists are currently behind bars in turkey a one peter stood recently returned from istanbul after being held there for weeks . parts met in his berlin home. peter now on his way to germany to reunite with his family after spending nearly four months in a turkish prison and the weeks since his return he's been trying to readjust its

7:25 am
not being back in germany the trial against him in turkey is continuing in this absence he's charged with having supported an armed terrorist organization many others are still imprisoned in turkey looking into the judicial system and the judicial procedures see that for a lot of the political detainees that the situation is rather unfair there the trials are postponed there are sometimes not even until now there's a lot of solidarity from my side towards them and i hope that i can say the same that i would love to say the same that as you said a few days before my release like you're going to be out now soon. now i recently received a peace prize for his work as a human rights activist. now large parts of europe have been covered in thick snow britain experienced the heaviest snowfall in four years causing travel chaos while germany got its first heavy dusting of the year let's take a look at how the country is coping with the onset of winter. a chance to

news our top stories israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu is under pressure from the european union to revive the middle east peace process is on a visit to europe following u.s. president donald trump's decision to recognize jerusalem as israel's capital and global arms sales are on the rise for the first time in seven years the stockholm based international peace research institute says the us is the biggest weapons manufacturer in the u.s. based companies make up more than half of all arms sales. now next march russians will vote for a new president vladimir putin is seeking reelection and his victory seems all but certain putin's most visible adversary is alexy volley this match he has declared his intention to run but a criminal conviction could prevent him from doing so it is a conviction that his supporters say is politically motivated put his other opponent is a notable newcomer t.v. host saying yes so chuck she's the daughter of the late anatoly sobchak he was the
7:32 am
mayor of st petersburg in the ninety's and putin's mentor somebody saying yes i'm shocked as a spoiler to devolve his campaign she herself sides with the opposition saying for example that crimea is ukrainian did hit the campaign trail with jack to find out is she a kremlin stooge or a crusading outsider. that sonia's sub jack is doing the rounds in rostov on don here in this part of russia south life is very different to that of subjects' home city of moscow the economy is sluggish poverty is rife subjects' says she wants to change that i want to see innovative russia full of yarnell businessman who are really create industries in russia because for all those years with the best oil prices we couldn't grade one single industry which would be the best in the world laughing i'm not proud of that i want another kind of raj so the subject is well known in russia having spent many years as
7:33 am
a socialite and reality t.v. star now she has reinvented herself as a serious political journalist her candidacy in next year's presidential elections has shocked many subjects as she's standing to challenge president putin. but i see that you have to be brave to get involved in politics in russia and i am i want to see changes in this country if i'm scared of anything it's not about losing my life i fear for my son's future he's growing up here. subject has made multiple t.v. appearances on russian channels she's raised to boost subjects on state television like russia's illegal anik sation of crimea such freedom of speech is rare in russia until now sonia subject had only experienced something similar when working for an independent t.v. channel as a presenter there she interviewed alexei navalny the prominent opposition politician
7:34 am
is also running against putin in the presidential elections. critics accuse sub jack of trying to weaken around the on the russian opposition as a whole she refutes that claim saying she shares novell needs values. i don't see a lot i know but that the authorities want to muzzle no volley they'll do anything to prevent him appearing as a politician but he's there and he's working hard to spread his ideas their ideas that i support. yet many suspect that subjects' candidacy was approved by the kremlin she knows putin personally and their families are friends critics say that's what's allowed her to ask uncomfortable questions both as a reporter and as a potential presidential candidate subject insists she's working independently she says she knows she has no chance against putin but that it's important to stand
7:35 am
against him. was leading here this elite here of rice in the last ten years russia's entire political landscape has been leveled . and we need to build it up again you all of. send your subjects' says she wants a new and different russia but does russia want her and who will benefit most from her involvement in this campaign. did of his yuri russia toe spoke to vitale clear of the political advisor to say jack he also worked on barack obama and bernie sanders presidential bits now he wants to rewrite the script of russian politics. you have worked as a companion manager in the gas in the gym and now you're working in russia fixing us up chuck while helping her to become president of russia and so there you go. on
7:36 am
the whole for me this is about seeing the standard of living here rise some day seeing free elections the only path towards a democratic nation to a european nation to a nation unlike with russia now is that path is through elections through constantly pushing politicians and important issues to the forefront. you could help somebody else like alexei navalny but instead you help stop chuck she is known as a television character she has a may tell name with reality shows didn't you have any doubts over when you decided to work for her you know. we all have good and bad times in our lives we all have assets and drawbacks if we focus on looking for drawbacks we can definitely find a thousand drawbacks in each of us that's not what this is about i think that in this rundown country in this political situation where there are no candidates it's not about who the most suitable is. but chuck says that she doesn't want
7:37 am
to then she's simply against everybody else and her aim is not to become president why she doing that than about hoped. but. you know when you live in a system where elections are a farce or where the whole thing doesn't function you can write as many platforms as you want but they won't get a knack to because the country doesn't function because the institutions don't function because the legal system doesn't function that means this isn't about content it's about getting the motor started in the first place in this sense sure she says she'll take on all comers but it's also an important message because she's saying that everything is broken here. this is here and. ok but she is being criticised in liberal circles for possibly being a kremlin project after all she knows putin from childhood her father was putin's
7:38 am
boss in st petersburg in the ninety's and she also informed putin about her plans before she made them public what do you think of these allegations and father from . i don't think this is about. the country is so corrupt that it needs a fundamental transformation. i don't mean to say that the president has no support he does have a certain amount of support in the country. and even if there were free elections he would still win without any problem and so the fact that she's running against him doesn't mean the elections are legitimate. but she helps to increase the popularity of this election by mobilizing people to vote she makes the choice more legitimate. the point is the point is if people do the opposite and stay home and don't go to vote then what will happen is the same as what's happened here for ten or fifteen years now people don't trust politics at all when you increase
7:39 am
participation you also increase pressure on the state and the change of personnel. and then there is a person who is trying to exactly that alexei navalny who knows as well many thought that they will to work together and to move in the same direction now it seems she's stealing the show from him because she addresses the same topics she has of the same criticisms and the same demands and. you know she isn't doing that every time you see a football match or the olympic games you get the impression that every athlete is stealing the show from the others. we don't have a betting club here that is about the medals it's more about the democracy and to the future of this country wouldn't it have been better to unite with opposition politician sure if he were prepared to do that is the problem or the leak of the divided to position in russia. exactly and that in
7:40 am
a nutshell. your campaign should be digital. in the beach alexina valise also popular on the internet i was scoring the. from the up. no he has his loyal voters if another candidate decides to run they won't just run away once more no one speaks to women in this country. because you think that the show a girl a t.v. presenter a wild party and emote as she used to be able now to reach women. and cross who work in factories and have a very different life from here. i don't think it i know it i see it i see the statistics her five point five million subscribers on instagram i see her on facebook i see how many people in which people come to our meetings when i have the opportunity with such a candidate to call people's attention as loudly as possible to the fact that
7:41 am
something is wrong with the country it would be stupid not to take advantage of that opportunity. let's see the results of your work in march next year thank you for the interview place thank you now the united nations said last week that the humanitarian situation in eastern ukraine is worse than ever and people there have been reaching breaking point they're forced to choose between food shelter and medicine or their children's education here's one family's story. a house with no roof it was destroyed in the war five children live here with their parents their home is bleak and dangerous this small village in eastern ukraine is less than a kilometer from the frontline playing around outside is risky there are land mines and unexploded bombs lurking everywhere and shots are still fired almost every day despite numerous cease fire agreements eleven year old at least keeps her siblings
7:42 am
safe yes unless that i'm the oldest of us when shooting starts up i take all the youngsters into the small room it's the safest place in the house my brothers play with their toys and i play with my puzzle. children in an almost forgotten war many have psychological problems drawing can help but most children have to deal with the stress and fear on their own they suppress their memories and can even experience a terrifying ordeal as a seemingly endless adventure. so i don't see sonia to share a lie down here and i always live beside them so they don't fall off but sometimes we take cover down here. but i have. what would lead us to this life in a war zone strains children psyches as much as it does adults some children begin to stutter that is a reaction by the body other children refuse to leave their bed parents are
7:43 am
completely helpless. the children fetch water from a distant well using an old milk container the water mains have been destroyed. left we have five children that we somehow have to get through this. after all the fighting they are psychologically traumatized just like we are but we can't afford to get help for that. and untroubled childhood is something the five had coast siblings can only dream of for now they belong to an entire generation whose future is never discussed during negotiations here in ukraine just as in so many other crisis regions around the world they are the children of war. and europe the cost of caring for elderly people is rising and so are rents for student housing a retirement home in the netherlands has developed a shared house solution to how both the young and the old free rent for time spent
7:44 am
have a look. the hanseatic town of defend her on the river eisel in the netherlands the city has one hundred thousand residents among them twenty six thousand students including. affordable accommodation is hard to come by here but you look a has finally found something and she's moving in today it's exciting particularly because this is an experiment. and here are her new flatmates elderly residents aged between seventy and one hundred four one hundred sixty elderly people live in this old people's home together with six students one on each floor. at first i thought it was a crazy idea of my neighbors would be elderly but actually it could be really sociable i'm certainly in no hurry to move into student accommodation i'm sure it will be lovely living here. ok
