i'm sumi so much gonna thank you for joining us award season has kicked off in hollywood the glitterati of the film industry turned out for the seventy fifth annual golden globes awards this year at the event's glamorous red carpet had a slightly different look stars were black in support of the me too movement a tribute to women who have spoken out against sexual predators some of the night's winners included elisabeth moss and she won best actress in a t.v. series and gary oldman who took the honors for best actor in a film now best film went to three billboards outside adding missouri now let's listen to some of the stars talking about why they wanted to don black at the event . where. up together we're drawing a big black line the tree yesterday. the way things used to be the way business used to be done to be that way. i think it's amazing i think it's historic and i

love seeing solidarity and our industry shining a light for all industries across all countries and this is the time to change everything it should be should we even have to have this conversation with clearly we do. in fact i'm calling this and let me just tell you this you know i. know i never have and moments sounded right i really felt like. we have d.w. culture editor karen helm set with us here in the studio she's following the awards for us karen it seems like the me too movement really a took center stage at these golden globes absolutely first of all i mean it was the biggest fashion statement in golden globes history and it was interesting that women sort of said you know we usually stand up here and our fashion statement to make the awards beautiful but this time we are actually using our presence and the look and the black on the red carpet to make this statement a collective statement of solidarity so it definitely affected obviously how south

wires. took us through the ceremony. and he made an awful lot of jokes about kevin spacey so there were some people and harvey weinstein i mean a number of people that came with really really poorly obviously that in the evening a lot of designers obviously had to rethink their. their dresses at the last minute to make sure that everybody could just show up in the necessary blocks but the interesting thing also was that the me too movement. which we talked about up until last week really morphed into the time's up movement so time's up is is a group of over three hundred women from actresses to producers and writers and casting agents is top women in hollywood led by figures like reese witherspoon eva longoria emma stone jessica chest pain for instance and they are calling now for an end not only to sexual harassment and abuse but also to calling for more diversity calling for gender parity and for equal pay so really expanding into

a number of issues. and the interesting thing we saw there with emma watson a in addition to wearing black numerous women actually decided to make a different kind of show of their own support for a lot of these issues by bringing activists with them so they invited a number of activists the woman there with emily watson was the u.k. feminist activist maher i see and michelle williams brought to run. burke for instance the founder of the original move to movement ten years ago well let's move on to talking about some of the winners of the night let's take a look at one of the winning films was a german film in the fayed took the award for the best foreign language film in karan it's by of a german turkish director that's right and it stars the actors you see here diane kruger now tells the story of a woman whose husband and son are killed in a bombing she suspects neo nazis were behind the blast. she is right in the end this is this is a really interesting film sumi obviously speaks very deeply to germans who are

still witnessing the ongoing and as you issues story with the trial of the out to cheaper here in germany. a very very finely observed film. wrote the screenplay himself very a lot of really interesting details that speak to german audiences and that's why it's very interesting and also very gratifying that it is speaking to such a degree to foreign audiences as well as the role of a lifetime for diane kruger and shock horror to fight if i can for her seeing that potential in her. it's definitely an interesting take on how our justice system works and the lengths that people are forced to go to in order to. get some kind of justice of them powerful film congratulations to you know absolutely to have to i can and i mean obviously that it's going to be hopefully being nominated for the oscars it's in the running definitely as germany's entry so

seeing as the golden globes are often a bellwether for what's going to happen at the our acres we can certainly cross our fingers that we might see them there again all right our culture editor karen holmes that with us here in studio following the golden globes for us thank you karen pleasure. now to some other stories making news around the world former white house advisor steve bannon has apologized over anti trump remarks he made in a bombshell book that rocked the white house last week. benon was quoted as saying a meeting in two thousand and sixteen between a russian lawyer and donald trump jr was treasonous and unpatriotic french president has begun an official three day visit to china where he set to sign a series of business deals with chinese leaders mccall's visit began and she and the starting point of the ancient silk road and a nod to beijing's are for to revive the trading route. space x. have said last it off a secretive u.s. government payload known as zoom up the launch in cape canaveral was initially

supposed to take place in november but it was postponed as soon as traveled in secrecy the private space x. company and the pentagon have not commented on the nature of the mission. and the heat wave has hit australia with sydney recording its highest temperature in almost eight decades with mercury topping forty seven degrees celsius many people headed to the beaches to cool off the extreme heat caused some a.t.m.'s and traffic lights to stop working. here in germany the country's biggest parties have kicked off exploratory talks aimed at forming a coalition government chance wrong the americans conservatives began talks with the center left social democrats after previous negotiations failed germany has been waiting for a new government since its election more than three months ago. germany needs a new government and they say too late is under pressure to deliver. neither the social democrats lay them out and shoot no christian democrats chancellor angela

merkel can guarantee a positive outcome but going into the talks they were hopeful. uses in a b. and b. a court will lead the negotiations in a constructive and inclusive way here. is go but i believe we can do it we're committed to working together very rapidly and intensively. but migration in europe divide the two sides the social democrats want the families of refugees to be able to join them here right when conservatives are against that plan on the e.u. martin short says big idea is for a united states of europe conservatives remain skeptical. the social democrats host of the first day of talks at the party's headquarters day like angle america's conservatives achieved their worst electoral showing in post-war german history and after september's election they said they would go into opposition but now they say what the country needs is a stable government. to survive this given the results of the

elections. it's clear that things can't go on as they were the very fully tissues that. the international political situation. and the makeup of the german bundestag show that we are in a new era in sight and this new era requires a new style of politics pretty a chance was featured two is riding on the outcome of these talks merkel has made it clear it's a majority government or new elections. our political correspondent michelle akers has been following the talks for us hi michelle tell us more about what progress was made so far well the for the country party data of the who we just saw there was how the stats on detail where actual progress was made. first gathering for this latest bid to at least agree on whether to enter into proper coalition talks but we know that europe is on the agenda now and that seems to be an issue where

there really is broad consensus that there must be an answer given to monitor my call who laid out his vision for europe in the summer while germany doesn't really seem to be ready to give some concrete answers so there's agreement that they have to give answers but there's a lot of difference in the detail and to work out this almost nitty gritty stuff already because after all these are parties that have been in government until now they still are in this current government right now one does wonder what all that fuss can possibly be about well let's talk about that nitty gritty you know the right wing of miracles conservatives and when you compare that to the left wing of the social democrats there is a lot of ground between them where is it going to be difficult for them to agree but we certainly saw kind of the the kind of more conservative end of the conservative c.d.u. the c.s.u. system party in bavaria laid down the law over the weekend they had a gathering where i was and they made it particularly hard for the social democrats to give ground on that issue of migration that so is on people's minds i mean the

polls are showing that people also care lot about the bread and butter issues but migration really is the one where there are key differences like whether to allow migrants who don't enjoy full protection to bring their family members here now that's something the public is also concerned about that more migrants could come here to germany whether germany can actually code. here the c.d.u. is making it very difficult for the social democrats to give ground because they do need a success they need to keep success to actually get the grassroots who will have the final say in the end whether there is a deal to actually play ball and go along with another ground coalition that's just one example but also on health issue there is a big question that the conservative see do you want to see improvements in the health system wants to depart from the current system they want to have very different set up they're dropping private insurance that it doesn't look like that is really on the cards for uncle america party but it has to give ground somewhere all right our political correspondent michelle are covering the latest on the talks for us thank you michelle are you. and i will be speaking to

a social democrat about those talks a little bit later in the program now moving on to some other news that pope francis is known for his outspoken statements on social issues and he has weighed in in support of breastfeeding mothers telling them they should feel free to nurse their babies in the sistine chapel the pontiff made the remarks at a christening in rome. the pope was baptizing thirty four infants in the sistine chapel every year the pope performs the ritual for children of employees of the vatican and the diocese of rome. during the two hour long ceremony several of the infants started to cry loudly. but pope francis took it all in his stride. going certo if they start performing a concert it's because they're either uncomfortable in order to warm or don't feel at ease or they're hungry. if they're hungry breast feed them.

don't be afraid feed them because this too is the language of love quest to. some others took the pontiff out his word while others reached for the bottle the pope has given similar encouragement during past ceremonies although widely accepted in italy in some countries women still face arrest meant for breastfeeding in public. you're watching news still to come istanbul's church of st stephen reopens after seven years of restoration we'll take you inside and ask if the project could usher in better relations between turkey and europe. but first investors are eyeing some bumper of public offerings this year has more of that as ride sumi twenty eighteen may be shaping up to be a come the year of the initial public offering for costing

dangerous really dangerously low as the area is struggling with the worst drought in living memory the city has now imposed what i call a level six restriction that means no irrigation for gardens of fields no refilling of swimming pools or washing of cars is also prohibited but the whole region which is home to around four million people could still run dry. the city of cape town has the ocean at its doorstep but freshwater is in desperately short supply and the drought is threatening the survival of many area businesses an estimated fifty thousand jobs in the western cape region could be lost mainly agricultural workers but also gardeners and hotel cleaning staff could face unemployment water rationing is affecting everyone even the five million tourists would arrive and only have been asked to keep showers to two minutes and under current restrictions water can no longer be used in gardens. and march twenty seventh the mayor declared the city a disaster area reminders are everywhere about the importance of saving water he

says in which if you still want water to drink if you still want to make your cup of tea your cup of coffee i think we need to encourage our neighbors encourage off friends and family not to misuse water city officials keep a close eye on supply they look for leaks and other sources of waste households have to limit consumption or face defined. cultural and commercial usage is restricted to the authorities are preparing for a day zero april twenty ninth the latest date when city taps are expected to run dry in that event there will be water point stations across the city which will distribute twenty five liters per person per day rain would help but in the heat of south africa's summer that's not very likely. to hold snow and some interesting news from the football world that's right care had some transfer news a brazilian footballer philippe quittin you know has succeeded in completing his

two figure skaters that comprise the north's modest olympic squad a warm welcome await they trained with southern parts can cue une and come can chant in canada last year and the foursome became fast friends. as we trained together for two months in canada we became close easily because we speak the same language we rooted for each other and we said that we should meet in. the world. despite inevitable differences resulting from growing up under regimes dancing to two wildly different tunes the athletes phone they still had plenty in common. peace to meet each other and could get along with the more than the other we ate together and it made us closer. to. a sense of togetherness among the korean shows that the olympic spirit is alive and well allies of both countries are hoping it's the first step on the road to more cooperation. now many

sports are steeped in tradition but few can lay claim to the kind of back story that an obscure game in the united kingdom has to offer it's called x.-e. horde and its roots go back to a medieval noble woman losing her hood and farm hands racing to return it to her so how did that become a sport take a look. you may never have heard of the hood but for two towns in the u.k. it's the biggest event of the year the annual game played by the people of hoxie and west woodside in northern england dates back to a fourteenth century legend it involves four groups coming together in a huge scrum each trying to push a leather tube called a hood back to its neighborhood it's a rough game and pretty confusing to. the drug still to go through to us who are so. it's

a no win situation. away from the rock it's all about bringing people together and alcohol plays its part in proceedings to use a day for. me cold thrones. new food and it's the version. of facts the winning team is the one that gets the hood to its local pub the cop and his arms was victorious this year but nobody's a loser in hacks he heard to make sure everyone is happy with the result tradition demands that the landlord hand out three drinks. now to istanbul and after seven years of restoration work and an estimated three and a half million dollars the church of st stephen has reopened the turkish president and the bulgarian prime minister both attended the opening and as bob kerrey a takes the helm of the rotating e.u. presidency there are hopes the church could signal an era of new cooperation. the

reopening of a unique architectural landmark and perhaps a unique opportunity to mend the disastrous ties between turkey and the european union. president wretch up type ad one arriving to send stephen's inauguration alongside the bulgarian prime minister boyko borisov the man who will be heading the us presidency for the next six months takis prime minister emphasised why the timing of this inauguration mattered. we do not see the required religious tolerance specially in europe. this sets people against one another instead of strengthening mutual goodwill. in such an era i believe that the message we are trying to send with the renovation of the church together with the bulgarian prime minister. is extremely important the bulgarian orthodox church is one of the most important in the christian orthodox world built originally one hundred twenty years ago its cast iron skeleton gave rise to its popular nickname the eye and.

its eye and parts were cast in vienna and shipped via the danube and the black sea destined for then constantinople it was one of the first major prefabricated structures in the world. there is of course a neo baroque influence and there's also a gothic one if we can even speak of a collective system it's a mixture of many styles the economy starts wall is made of killed it would. what's interesting is these icons. very different from the classical orthodox iconography there of a much more innovative style. with. the lion's share of the restoration costs were borne by the turkish state part of ankara's wider efforts to restore synagogues chapels on churches. critics accuse

turkey of doing little to respect christian minority rights but both the turkish and bulgarian leaders have vaunted the iron church as a positive example of religious and ethnic tolerance. you're watching d.w. news still to come the fight against official secrecy in paris president's former military complex want answers about nuclear waste at the site they say it is ruining their health. all signs point to authorize the nationalism around the world they don't use funny for chart tracks the backlash against globalization in our series new nationalism. but first we'll talk to a lawmaker from germany social democrats about efforts to form a new government that's coming right up.

situation in iraq. through the other previous talks mrs merkel had with all the parties and it didn't work out to build a grand coalition that we now have to talk and. just myself that the party made clear that three options on the table we have for. a grand coalition of minority government india have new elections and so these three options need to be now decided on the topics which are being now discussed as you mentioned for this week and so let's see how big the moves of the other parties are if a very tight situation is for exam of the varian more conservative party is going to face up an election coming up so they're actually very strong and people like mr albright inviting him to their party gathering shows a little bit the direction they might would like to go so there are many things on the table and there no need to be discussed so there are tensions there i want to ask you about one of the options on the table which is that grand coalition government your party made very clear after the elections that it would not enter

a coalition government it was perceived by many social democrats that one of the reasons your party did not perform well in the elections was because of the last four years in this government with chancellor merkel conservatives why would you go into the same agreement if that's what the party decides to do i was very thankful from insurers that he made clear in the party leadership decision already on that evening of the election that did not entering a grand coalition be course it's only asked it's also the conservatives both sides lost fourteen percent and also the if the right wing now party moved into the parliament so the new times. said our new general secretary on our party leadership and so that means that meant that we have been not voted into a grand coalition again it harmed us as a party i got support by for example i'll straighten social democrats who lost dramatically over a grand coalition through a grand coalition and so that is the situation we should not look into and

therefore as the price of the bargaining is going to be definitely very high because it's not only the party leadership who decides on that we're going to have . in two weeks time but also then all members whatever comes out. coalition possible coalition paper then have to agree on so we have a party vote in the end of the whole process so it's going to be going to conserve disagree have to move a big big step forward if they would like to have that and move to made clear she doesn't want to of a minority government and i'm not totally against it so what will be different this time around if you look at it from the voters perspective you said yourself that they did not vote for this coalition government to come back together again what are you going to tell s.p.d. supporters about that what will be different this time well first of all because of their sue clear there was not an attempt by mrs merkel to start a grand coalition all the sudden after the election if you remember it was still

open is this going to be as so to say coalition try out by liberals greens in the conservatives which would not have taken place if they even have made clear that they're not standing aside for a grand coalition now as this feels we. responsibility inside the country but also based on our lines and based on our perceptions of a grand coalition or another form the deva tried out a minority government so in that regard. that would be for example one option very things need to be discussed yes that might be more difficult but then political system be discussed as moca doesn't like to have that one of the issues that's being discussed at the moment is europe there seems to be some consensus between negotiating parties on that issue and you're on the european parliament's foreign affairs committee and germany is now abstained in key votes is your getting impatient. i don't see that we are going to hang in there they're used to that in

other countries i mean if you look and spain if you look and sweden minority governments are even just shaping governments having relations so it's unfortunately the new situation but nevertheless vs still virk ing in the in the framework of our constitution and that regards. there's no really push are difficult. kind of pushed by the european union nevertheless we need to reforms we are aiming ourselves to close of micron's reforms ideas we need for example fiscal minister. so we need to have a european budget there many reforms and in particular foreign politics i just returned from israel needs to be brought a stand for international law as the u.s. kind of drops out and therefore it's helpful if germany could run a new campaign for example for the peace talks to france together your party leader martin chills said he wanted a deeper yours on reforming the united states of europe by twenty twenty five is

that the right move at a time when nationalism seems to be on the rise when populist groups seem to be gaining ground well we have to express express and actually formulate the european vision that people get in understanding what it's all about business wise actually quite well in particular germany and therefore they. it comes through different situations as well and building up more capacity and general questions people want to have more security i'm happy that fear of working towards european security reform we have to build on the next twenty thirty years european army that's what my party wants to have and therefore. enter that face twenty twenty five but you have to bork the situation in order to keep the peace which is in comparison to other regions the really great thing to have a social democrat a politician also a member of the european parliament thank you very much for joining us in our

studio this morning thank you as well. moving on now to a budding controversy over nuclear power industry france and people living on the outskirts of paris fear that radioactive waste from a military complex there may pose a threat to their health for decades before was the site of a small scale experiment in france's nuclear program so how dangerous is it local residents to find out. and his friends want to give their neighbors a wake up call at the market place in the village of. twenty kilometers from paris . they want people here to know that they may have been exposed to high levels of radiation for decades ever since the french army conducted nuclear tests in the area in the one nine hundred fifty s. . tumors are being darkness which are completely normal and there's no reliable explanation for them we must do something a most of all we must get the defense department to finally reveal what happened

here fifty years ago he said. the possible threat comes from here to a military facility that covers forty five square kilometers starting in one nine hundred fifty five france's atomic energy commission began experimenting with enriching uranium and developing detonators for atomic bombs on the site. was a local politician for many years. he spent much of his childhood here. while playing soccer matches he remembers often hearing muffled explosions. we all wondered whether something dangerous had happened but as i remember many people's initial response was they can't be doing anything dangerous because we're just twenty kilometers away from paris. but perhaps residents

didn't know the truth recently it's come to light that not everything was under control last summer sacks filled with radioactive waste were found at the site they were discovered by workers from. a firm which makes construction materials it had bought the property to mine for gypsum and. now has been instructed to simply decontaminate the site without knowing exactly what took place here the nuclear tests conducted here are still considered to be military secrets a company spokesman says they're proceeding cautiously. at a site like this which is just it's easy to spot these objects which are atypical and don't belong here he passed his info on to a specialist right away and he takes care of the decontamination. but do and his fellow activists call that procedure irresponsible they've sought help from the commission for independent research and information on radioactivity

a french ngo. nuclear physicist the notion of a whole shows us for instance how one side of the tile poses no danger while the other side is highly radioactive. for us he says the same applies to the ground at the nuclear site. to decontaminate a site like this you have to go over every surface with a fine tooth comb and as soon as you start removing the earth you must keep taking measurements because as soon as it's a few centimeters on the ground this uranium is no longer detectable i think even with high performance geiger counters. despite the risk of being exposed to radiation. is letting its workers continue digging in the process soil contaminated with radiation could be mixed with uncontaminated earth france's

nuclear safety authority has imposed legal requirements yet stringent controls to ensure their implementation are lacking. the firm is primarily responsible for ensuring protection against radiation on its site. we compounds the guard at the sites exit to check every truck that leaves the premises that's not our own. i do says it's a scandal he's convinced that the french state just wants to rid itself of the possibly radioactive soil. as you might imagine there's collusion between the state on the construction materials mica on one hand it's in the french state's interest for us to forget everything as quickly as possible so we won't keep asking questions. and on the other the sites by our bathrooms. wants to get its hands on the gypsum under the ground as quickly

as possible. plans to keep on fighting until the full story of the nuclear testing is on earth but by then it could be too late to do much about it. now with the brags that vote in the u.k. donald trump's victory in the us and populist groups gaining ground here in europe they ws been taking a look at the rise of nationalism funny for charice travel to several countries where nationalism is resurgent russia has been looking into the backlash against globalization and trying to find out why nationalist movements around the world are growing her journey started in the netherlands and took around the world to the united states and to russia on to france and to scotland india turkey and northern iraq here's a look back at some of what she found. rising nationalism in many parts of the world politicians like trump. have become

a many station of putting my nation first i went on a global journey to explore what that means and why people are willing to join the crowd. was one of my first stops this is martina mark. an artist and a proud supporter of president donald trump's policies she wants to protect the u.s. martina says it's under threat by liberals and globalism we are the role models for what's cool and what's happening what's going on so it is my duty to stay in new york and help shift that culture and show that it's like cool energy to have right wing values in traditionalism and things that the left just threw out in order she wants the u.s. president to build a wall and limit immigration martina uses sex appeal to express nationalism in a way she doesn't feel left behind like many supporters rather she found a growing. encouraged by his rhetoric to create a radical culture

a culture in liberal new york. rhetoric centering around national pride that's driving turkey's nationalism as well headed up by president taliep our next stop. there he wants to be the father of a new turkish identity one that shaped by religious place at least half of the turkish population wants it the pious conservative half more mosques are being built we are stopping by a new mosque to meet a young. he tells us that a real turk puts his nation first supports the government and. turkey is self-confident. for a while. we got used to losing but now we know that we can win again. we can be strong and be a great nation because that's what we were in the past. a new turkey

that's a reference to the coup attempt in twenty sixteen supporters crushed it and they see their victory as an opportunity to represent a new nation predominantly based on islam but does muhammad's advocacy for islamic nationalism interfere with his job as a lawyer. it's hard to give people the feeling that justice is being carried out properly we don't know who is connected to the terror organization is going to be emulous he says nationalism and a love for one's country tops the need for an independent judiciary fear drives nationalistic identity. next we are headed to turkey's neighbor iraq in the north kurds have dreamt of independence for many decades turkey with a large kurdish population rejects and has threatened to close the border to northern iraq to. the turkish government it could shut it at any time they say they

fear any independent kurdish state could increase separatist tension in turkey as well but supporters of the kurdish state are ready to face the consequences one of them is arima. he calls himself a good nationalist because he says he's nationalism aims at ending iraqi occupation of kurdish territory is very often is very have. occurred in iraq as a kurdish people i feel like i'm really here every single time when i prefer in my pocket and i'm back. ari tells me about being oppressed for generations under iraqi rule the kurdish brand of nationalism is inclusive and over into other cultures. all of them are nationalists but i'm learning nationalism comes in so many different shades.

and we have did have used funny for char with us here in studio to talk more about her reporting on new nationalism i funny we saw on your point that you were in northern iraq and kurds voted overwhelmingly for independence in a referendum that was last september that was put down by baghdad essentially so how successful has nationalism really been in the places that you've visited if you stay to this particular case the kurds for example if you look at them of course the desperation dream to form a homeland to have to own a nation that still exists that didn't cease to exist because the central government in back that said we don't want the kurds to break away from iraq however that particular movement that steam of that movement basically has been broken has been crushed by the central government who say we are going to limit the access to more than iraq you're going to close the airspace international airspace for flights to our bill for example to the capital city of northern iraq to show

you guys we don't want kurds to break away you belong to us you belong to or nation so that clearly tells us that basically nationalism of one group of people is broken all crashed by the nationalism of a different group of people here in this case by iraqis but not just by iraqis but also by neighboring countries with their kurdish minorities for example neighboring country turkey syria iran these countries all neighboring countries to the northern parts of iraq and they don't want their minorities to break away as well so as we have seen these the crease of the nationalistic movement of kurds that doesn't mean of course that there is spiration is going to stop similar of you have seen in scotland for example they're trying to break away from the u.k. before the u.k. breaks away from the european union as part of bracks it but political realm release them has it that the scottish and as well as the kurdish people at this point at least do not have a new opportunity to actually make their case and become independent you actually

say in your report we heard at the end there that dumb nationalism comes in different show. shades what did you mean by that as of listens to the kurdish activist who is dreaming of an own homeland of a kurdish passport he refers to his form of nationalism as civic as inclusive because he says once a kurdish country exists that doesn't mean it's only for kurds he said if you'll be very inclusive of other ethnicities of other religious groups as well and i'm just seeing actually catalonia here in the background that i've spoken to they also said once catalonia becomes independent that doesn't mean that catalonia is all before catalonia or that they do not want to have other groups of people in our country so that's a shade that's more civic or de consider themselves more civic compared to other forms of nationalism that is considered more aggressive thinking about for example far right parties across europe for example. in france they were campaigning last year on the message to close borders to to reform the european union in

a way that is keeping refugees out as you can tell this is very very exclusive form of nationalism that threatens other groups whites it is trying to increase the identity of a certain group of people of the french whatever is considered to be real french nationalism has taken on different forms different faces as you have just been saying but from your travels around the world what do you think are the reasons for why nationalism has been on the rise you know why are people receptive to it right now of course from the obvious fact that you keep on hearing even before we started this trip is that a lot of people feel less because they feel that they are not benefiting from globalization they are not really the ones who are gaining from structures that exist for decades now the european union made to the u.n. alliances but apart from the obvious facts of course they are others they are basically frustrations about political elites people say that the way the european

union behaves the way political members of the european parliament behaves is very little. they want to know turn it if the problem is that mainstream poll at least if you've seen do not seem to offer that alternative to them so they are ready to be receptive to rather far right nationalistic messages who keep telling you you should feel better about yourself better about yourself because you belong to a certain group of people nation and that recipe works and on top of that of course it is a lot of fear among people little things that have been taken for granted and lion says in the past cannot be taken for granted and they fear that so many changes come at the space at a pace that they may not benefit from that so it is a lot of factors involved in that as well so the new nationalism that you witnessed in your reporting how do you see that developing further in two thousand and eighteen at the beginning vivre speaking about nationalism drawing back a little bit in certain places but of course it is a rise in nationalism if you look at the european union especially eastern european

countries the vicious states pulling czech republic slovakia hungary want to set a new vision and want to basically reform the european union in their way which would lead to a division within the european union there's an election coming up in hungary and prime minister viktor orban is complaining on the fact that they do not want that hungary does not want refugees to enter the country that. does not want to accept laws that are within the european union and of course you have many elections coming up in russia and iraq there also people are complaining on their form of nationalism. it doesn't always have to be or have to do with a nation didn't ethnicity per se however it could also a play out the religious groups but it's definitely a story disco in just a few dozen twenty eight hundred many parts of the world correspondent funny for sure and thank you for sharing your experiences with us this morning. funday you
