a one thousand draw trade route to do that they're investing hundreds of billions of dollars in paul's railways roads and bridges across asia africa and europe today we're at the greek port of parade us last year china's state owned shipping a majestic from costco spent over two hundred eighty million viewers on a majority stake in the port they're due to pour another three hundred fifty million into the port infrastructure in the next decade for the greeks chinese investment is paying off telecoms giants like said and huawei from china as well as america's shooter packet are using pariahs as a gateway for their products for traffic volumes are twenty percent up year on year . this is the port of parade yes since chinese shipping giant costco took over the port has been an operation twenty four hours a day freight volumes are four times what they used to be and one of the two

container piers is being extended costco's plan to turn pariahs into a gateway to europe is well underway its local executives are upbeat so far paramus is the only large private sector project making headway in greece but it is will be the first at that on an up. and very big this to be assessed and they make that out now and we hope to be offset of this the sense that this if you think of us from buy up by. companies like sony and hewlett packard ship their products from paris to eastern europe. costco has invested a billion euros in the container terminal. the passenger terminal is next on the agenda already the largest in europe it's going to get even bigger along with a massive facelift. old warehouses are also being converted.

are that get these to be below four and five star hotels that we did not have maybe you know you can see by getting them to provide good he said he said he sees we thought there i muse ment area areas like restaurant cafeterias costco also wants to attract cruise ship passengers primarily from china and paramus would be more than just a flying visit costco wants it to become home base for the luxury liners big plans but the unions are skeptical they fear costco is farming out contracts to subcontractors and working conditions will be undermined in a few me off the wall it's an important question is that and if necessary we'll go on strike yet we want a collective agreement and long term secure jobs that's what we demand from costco and also from our government. as part of the deal with the greek government costco has to invest three hundred fifty million euros and perea sarber over the next ten

years it's hoped the district around the harbor will also benefit and greece certainly needs the kind of economic stimulus the chinese hope their vision for brass will deliver. venezuela sits atop the world's largest oil reserves but the plummeting crude price and gross mismanagement by the government has crippled the country's economy inflation is sky high two thousand percent this past year hundreds of thousands of venezuelans are leaving the country and trying to make it elsewhere some are cashing in with creative ideas even that can't pull them out of desperate poverty. yes just taking the bus not to work though sadly his work is on the bus his selling money worthless money from his homeland of when this oil and. they get it do you know what i can buy with this absolutely nothing gentleman. having

a drop in minnesota elias jorge did this not enough to feed a family with seven years when salary is forty thousand dollars a week that doesn't buy much today a pound of sugar costs more than twice as much. because they left his country for neighboring colombia and is now panhandling on buses in bogota he explains his country's economic plight to local commuters hoping to store their horace. i left my country with two million body of ours when i arrived at the border they would only give me sixty thousand pesos for it twenty dollars so i decided to bring them here instead to bogota and give them away so that people can give me whatever they feel in their hearts i do it because i have three beautiful children i have a family have to do something to feed them up with. the concept works call him makes a few bucks every day and manages to send some money back home meanwhile the crisis there affects the neighbors across the western border colombia has its own economic

problems and it's facing a larger influx of migrants than the country has ever seen before we're going in there are a lot of people in the cities where there are issues with lack of lodging lack of schools it's a challenge you can imagine that if the colombian population already has problems accessing basic services if six hundred thousand more people arrive it's very difficult yallop of those who call them young or. difficult but still better than in venezuela for jorge got here yes that's all that matters. now the united nations has issued a stark reminder. some of the horrors some children still face in the world so let's write down such an important story in the u.n. is saying that children who live in conflict zones around the world are being deliberately targeted and exposed to attacks in a statement the un's children's agency unicef called the scale of attacks on children this year quote shocking agency said the children were subject to rapes

forced marriages of duction were even used as human shields in conflicts from syria to yemen to myanmar and nigeria. here and wire is with unicef he joins us now from new york kiran what's stunning about this is that it appears children have absolutely no protection in conflict zones has the international community failed the children of the world. international community but also those parties that have already was off by the children of the world who are all these front lines because we have sighing the way that was it being fought with their he's known site place the children in these countries and that must change. how how do we change it . well first of all there are bowls of war that explain if peace fails if people go to war stop fighting in there are things they must do to protect

civilians and children as you have seen and so interest probably the most vulnerable of civilians have special protections under the rule some of these things a simple it's completely outrageous to use a chop obviously in shield to turn a child it was a soldier or to force them into being a suicide bomber it's completely improper an outrageous to deny children food and water and medicine and use them is getting chips in some kind of a struggle and it's completely wrong that the children and families for example if it rock in syria this year had a horrible choice of risk in being shot by snipers is that a sky i saw in cities or in court explosive. mine mine fields and bombing this coming against isis so. they call in the middle sometimes they targeted too often it's complete disregard for protecting them in eighteen away bodies happening so if he's go to war they must do what they can

or under their obligations to protect family sit ins and especially children that's carrying the wire who's with unicef joining us from new york thanks very much. well here in germany a major meeting of hackers is underway with mass surveillance and data security among the key points of discussion. europe's biggest hacker collective the chaos computer club is hosting the congress which is also looking closely at the spread of fake news online. our reporter nina haas is at that congress earlier she spoke to one of the organizers of the event. i'm not joined by if i catch one of the speakers of the chaos computer club psych eval there has been a lot of talk about fake news it's also a topic in some of the panels here what is your reaction to the term fake names.

for us the term fake news doesn't really fit into the topic because we're talking about news that are wrong so somehow displaced or mismatched and this is nothing that is actually new because we have seen that in the past so we know that even classic media produced wrong news in the past and the only difference is that. more and more people are producing those news because the uses of the internet are now participants in the news and in spreading those informations and what are some of the concrete measures that you propose that can be implemented to counteract the dissemination of fake news and such a level so we actually knew about how to filter the news and to understand news in the past and to question information that we actually read on a newspaper or wherever and we have to learn to use old failed us on the internet again and something we have to learn is that information flows on the internet are

much faster and we have just two to learn as a society to work with those informations to. detect and eliminate wrong information and if you look into the future what will be some of the topics that you as your club will be dealing with we actually have been dealing with. privacy concerns and like information security concerns in the past and we will be working on those topics in a future as well because we see that things are those topics are growing and getting more important we have seen like. regret attacks like want to cry in the last year or in in this year and we have to. on those topics because those should concern everyone out there and we have to understand that as a society that we cannot depend on the system so much thank you very much like out . my ribs and then go dive at the age of thirty seven he was unknown to the art

world so certain as paintings and the story of his unhappy life have fascinated the world now an animated film like no other is burning the tortured artist to life again we have a report now on the movie loving vincent takes you behind the scenes. for as if it's my unspent i wouldn't say it's bad now it's late it's again i wish you a good night and good luck and it will come with a handshake and love the years vincent since. this story of vincent fungus life told with the help of his own pictures this polish english co-production is one of the calland. a movie painted in oil with real actors the true challenge of them is just a bit over since we worked with the blue screen most of the time mark i had to know what the space around looked like in the painting it was and how i should move in.

with a few and so it has become. a crime story that seeks to shine a light on the mysterious circumstances of fungus death and to explain his character with the help of his work. them says it was he was very lonely as humans and as an artist of it of course despised him having a very good friend in his younger brother who understood him well. but he was still lonely and that made him very sad enough that he felt underappreciated. immersing oneself into the world of the great painter with the help of high end computer software and cameras with the real vincent have appreciated this. the production took four years and consists of more than sixty thousand paintings twelve individual paintings for each second. and this is where they were made more than one hundred painters from all over the world

later recreated every scene that was shot on canvas. right now and painting the scene with the policeman i use a projector to put the outlines of the scene on my canvas and then i compare it with my painting. over that i also have a tool to track my hand movements. working on thousands of paintings for months takes its toll. what seems to don't have a lot of movement in we basically draw the same picture over and over again sometimes while doing this i had to go out for fresh air or to scream then release my emotions. by the way some of these oil paintings are going to be all that you don't. like the complete artwork could only be seen in symbol. of our top stories this hour. results show that soccer
