this is either it is live from the u.s. president donald trump professed to deliver his first state of the union address bill celebrates a robust economy of course for congressional action on immigration but bring your preview from washington also on the program. kenya's opposition leader staged his own presidential inauguration and then the government out goes his political movements so it's the same set for more political violence. germany's would be governing coalition parties hamas

a deal to allow refugees to bring family members to join them. i feel very welcome to the program later today u.s. president donald trump will deliver his first state of the union address laying out his government's agenda for the year so let's have a look at two of the key issues he's likely to address on trade it's america's first american first during his speech at the world economic forum in davos mr trump repeated his election campaign pledge that the american economy was his top priority and that the country was open for business but america first does not mean america alone when the united states grows so does the world. immigration and the future of the so-called dreamers will be the other key issue

the president's a suggested that he's open to protecting the seven hundred thousand children of undocumented migrants who live in the u.s. illegally in return he wants senate to approve billions of dollars in border security funding so let's get more that from our washington correspondent alexandra of not. welcome and xander so. let's talk about the president's speech what can we expect that i feel. well it is a big moment for president trump who has had a very tumultuous january that included a government shutdown a tell all book and a bombshell report today that he had thought to fire a special counsel robel to moeller so it is a huge opportunity for president trump now to lay out his political agenda to tell if he's achievements and to make a case for his ambitious infrastructure plan for his ambitious immigration plan and

according to a senior white house officials who briefed us on the speech it's going to be a very optimistic speech its main theme is building a strong safe and proud america and this official told us that president will be trying to convince. audience that all americans are benefiting under his presidency that all americans of all backgrounds of all incomes are being lifted up by he's paul this is how we're over it is going to be a tough sell with many americans when we look at the approval rating which is at the record low right now and many people he opposed his divisive and controversial remarks in the past and that is a reason for many democrats to boycott this state of the union address right through because that's a poor what is typical because this traditionally is

a considered vision for a political agenda rather than the sort of barnstorming the parties and events that he's used to addressing how will he cope. well if it's going to stick to the script as he did last year he is going to be fine last year he's address to congress which was technically not a state of the union address was praised even by many democrats as a very presidential speech so if we are going to see a teleprompter donald trump he might be fine. alexander from norman in washington for now thank you. now let's pick up a valid point about which donald trump we are going to say tonight with a political science is that it was a castle's who also specializes in u.s. economics or welcome to the w. . which trump then are you expecting to see today or to q trump to stick to the

carefully crafted script or tweeting trump who goes off script. predicting trump behavior is totally difficult but i expect him to be more on scripts more in q one in his agenda because there's much at stake here for this president because his poll numbers aren't great. the u.s. economy for the most part is doing very well because the world economy is doing well what he said before in davos if the u.s. is doing well the world is doing well it's true in the opposite degree the world is actually pulling everybody up europe as well so in that regard if he wants to push this very ambitious agenda he has to come up with a good plan with a strategy that is somehow bipartisan this will require a lot of this man who likes to act impulsively and if he's looking for bipartisan

support then what what's he got to offer. well the dreamers and. protecting dreamers and the economic benefit and profit that comes with them they they put the vast potential that these migrants bring to the united states will not be bought with funding for the border wall because with the tax plan of twenty seventeen which was not financed and cuts a vast hole into public finances there's no way that they've bought a wall or the border protection project will be funded entirely so there will be some kind of form of compromise that could be actually the infrastructure plan public funding for infrastructure digitalisation roads buildings that could be something that democrats could agree on. ok. there are rumors as well he's going to make eye opening remarks about north korea what are you hearing well that's that's actually the point where everybody is a little bit disconcerted seeing that this president can be very impulsive the in

his rhetoric. it remains to be seen i think what's most likely is that he lays out some rather heavy rhetoric on the north korean case to make him seem stronger without an actual military strategy behind it because there's no solution to the north korean question without china and china right now isn't all too pleased when kay so you'll get with us later during the lead up to president to speech which will be broadcasting life and how there nicholas casts thank you so much. and let's have a look at some of the other stories making news around the world observers say air raids in syria's crawford's have claimed the lives of at least eight people this force it is said to show the aftermath of strikes in a rehab and. the ongoing violence has prompted syria's opposition to boycott peace talks underway in the russian resort of sochi. austria as usual those of us in

court as welcomed home carrying the prime minister viktor all back to vienna for talks on migration chance of course back hungry and other countries who oppose a new migration quotas amount to increased border security the chances conservatives are governing in coalition with a right wing a far right party. hundreds of catalan protesters have rallied in barcelona to show support for separatist leader carlos pushed him on this after lawmakers postponed the decision to release the pro independence figure as the reasons president approved more faces arrest if he returns to space and is currently in self-imposed exile in brussels. kenya's government has outlawed rather a dangerous national resistance movement to have to be opposition leader talk a symbolic presidential oath of office as a more inauguration ceremony in nairobi this trip to india has disputed the country's presidential election result since last august the supreme court ordered

a rerun in tobar which he boycotted describing it as a sham. after the ceremony he updated his twitter profile to describe himself as president of the republic of kenya in a tweet showing him at the block in organization described himself as graciously accepting the mandate granted us by the kenyan people. thousands assembled in the kenyan capital to support opposition leader while. supporters have been gathering in a hula park since early this morning. it's an important day for us and our come on time i don't want to miss out i say are we out with. this is that after that the citizens of this country are not allowed to this will be a summer here and the let's all presidents as well because it usually. the police initially used tear gas to disperse the crowd while odinga wanted to use this

occasion to denounce a vision he says was brought about by election rigging at noon here we cited an oath of office in a mock inauguration and pronounced himself the people's president. just today it's a historical day in our country of kenya he said kenyans have decided to remove themselves from the dictatorship that came about through feldstein and. shortly after his speech disappeared kenya's attorney general has threatened to charge him with treason which could lead to capital punishment the government has denounced the opposition as a quote organized criminal group despite international recognition of president who took kenyatta as reelection amid low voter turnout he had three private broadcaster shut down to prevent a live transmission of a ceremony presenter telling the media for that person to have a can of the right information center and that was just what a good thing is that we have social media regional us and that is

a very. big to get information out is because mainstream india is always been known for its. the situation remained calm despite the turn of events in the kenyan capital over the past few months where the ninety kenyans have been killed in election related disputes. as correspondent catherine joins us from nairobi welcome catherine so the government has declared a kind is a position national resistance movement a criminal organization what effect will this have. well that has a great effect in the sense that the the national resistance movement is an arm of the national the super alliance so that prominent politicians who are in there who have declared that they are members of this national resistance movement so we could see a rest of these prominent politicians but then also it's very hard to determine who among the people of kenya who are not politicians and just support his who is

a member of the national resistance movement so now we could see the government going into surveillance you could see the government victimizing anybody who is critical of the government given the situation right now i mean if you see the crowds that came to who popped compared to the crowds that actually attended the inauguration of president who can yet it seems that right loading does pose a big threat and the national resistance movement does that then now to differentiate who is a member of the national resistance movement and who isn't is going to be hard to tell now that the government has put a band and a ban on the media and shut down there are fears that this could be part of a plan to also start surveilling journalists and also you know try and follow and see what they're saying if they're critical of the government so it's up in the air in the sense that no one knows what this blanket statement actually means at this point why did so many thousands turned out to watch this. you know gratian.

well for them they feel that this is right loading that is the rightful president last week the national. released results that said or suggested they tried loading eight million votes in august during the august eighth election and the president of grouping out to got seven million votes and he won the vote by one million so according to these supports his they feel this right loading is the right for president and they feel that if he is put as the people's president they are represented in the government or represented in some form why do this now the rerun election was last october. in january why. well for him and for his supporters they feel that election didn't take place in october we had majority of the counties and constituencies only or below twenty percent voter turnout so not many people came out to vote when there was

a boycott so many people this election didn't really take place and we also saw the intimidation of the supreme court at the time and them actually passing this election and saying that a president who cannot it was badly elected so to a majority or to house of kenyans. the elections did take place and the process is not yet over. in nairobi thank you. our job is to main political parties have made a major breakthrough in that efforts to form a new coalition government jobs americans conservatives on the left the social democrats they've reached agreement on refugee family reunions refugees already in germany will be allowed to bring their families to join them but they'll be limits on the number who belong to do some. parts is a speedy headquarters where those talks have been taking place so welcome charlotte both parties describing this as

a win but it does have its critics. yes for sure lots of criticism today and i'd rather call it a progress than a breakthrough we have to remember that this topic of family reunification has been heatedly discussed since the so-called refugee crisis and twenty fifteen and the number of refugees actually affected as around one hundred and fifty thousand the rather small number if you think about the more than eight hundred thousand people that came at the height of the refugee crisis but it's a matter of integration a matter of migration that has been attached to those questions so it's been heated lead to discuss then finally the two parties could present an agreement today and both parties claiming victory the social democrats are saying look we have one thousand people a month being able to join with their family members in germany starting this august that is a major breakthrough and also. in cases of hardship refugees can still come to

germany family members can still come to germany and then we have the conservatives on the other side who are saying now we've limited once and for all the migration the family reunifications for those refugees mostly from from affected by the civil war in syria and the critics are saying that loses off this whole discussion while both parties are claiming victory the loser those refugees affected those that have been hoping to reignite with their families and especially human rights organizations and also the opposition in parliament the left parties saying this is a humanitarian catastrophe this decision that both parties have been taken and a matter of really cynicism claiming this as a victory. for justice. that they're going to limit the numbers eventually puts a figure owners. yes they did put a figure on it it's one thousand

a month for a family members that can reunite with their family members that are already here in germany in a month or so twelve thousand a year or so if you're one thousand going to be interesting discussion that takes place the parts for non psych you. i mean are to states a future of health care reform remains unclear in the meantime corporate giants are stepping into the breach what's going on hello well essentially we're talking about the biggest push for reform to health care and it's coming from corporate giants from companies fail when we talk about affordable and quality health care so the online retailer amazon warren buffett's berkshire hathaway and j.p. morgan chase they're teaming up to offer their u.s. employees quality health care they say at a reasonable cost now the three c.e.o.'s at the new company will be independent and free from profit making incentives the initial focus on technology that provides

simplified high quality and transparent care they say well shares in health care companies took a big hit in early trading on the new york stock exchange hinting at the threat that he entity poses to existing health care structures in the u.s. . when our financial correspondent yes court is a new york for us tracking that story up against what the future of the u.s. health care reform unclear is this a case of businesses seizing on an opportunity or is it a bit of a sense that something is lacking. well probably both but it's a very interesting story first of all the american health care system is probably the most expensive in the world some americans are roughly spending three and a half billion dollars per year on health stats roughly twenty percent of total g.d.p. and if you look at the history of health care in the united states the health care system is much more privatized here than it is in the you were all started

basically old software world war two there was a lack of workers and to a correct those workers companies started to offer pension plans but also called health care plans and right now we are in a similar situation because we almost have full employment and that could be an incentive for talents for good skilled workers to join those corporations right now is what does this then me for the broader health care industry. there is a lot of pressure building up for their health care industry and there are plans that hospitals for example thinking about to manufacture some of the medications themselves so we have amazon who is thinking about going into the drug store and business and now we have this development where those three companies are trying to offer cheaper health care or some formal fields insurance we don't have all the details yet to their workers and that means

a lot of pressure for pharmaceutical companies for health insurers and also for drug stores and therefore you see a heavy pressure on those stocks as you mentioned earlier all right stay with us yes because i want to get your thoughts on another big a story playing out on the markets right now u.s. stocks trading shoppy low at this hour forwarding for a second day which means that now the lowest level in two months we've got the dow jones industrial average losing three hundred twenty seven points in a frenzied sell off its biggest single day loss since may of last year the pressure on the global bond market is one factor behind that slight health insurers and drug makers also contributing off the back all the news that j.p. morgan chase amazon embouchure her way north showing that new health care venture plus there's that decline in energy shows that we're seeing as well the moment in the on going evidence of rising u.s. crude out. straight back over to yens then or wall street yes what is it out of

all those factors that got invest is the most frightful right now. well i mean the market has been on a run for quite some time and it is richly priced and investors were waiting for quite a quite some time for some trigger to actually sell shares to have some form of correction so that actually might be it and it's the second consecutive day that we do see pressure on the market as of right now blue chips was in those two days are down about five hundred and fifty points but it probably really started it was the bond market yields are approaching or getting towards us three percent and rates are increasing meaning that there is an alternative now to a stocks and then what we also shouldn't forget is a lot of the growth that we saw on a corporate level on a private level and also on a federal level it was bought was debt and now was rates increasing debt becomes more expensive so it's nothing dramatic yet but certainly i mean there is some sell

off going on at this moment probably louis siding with pressure from the bond market and you'll be monitoring it very closely for us yes go to a wall street thank you. now with the u.s. president about to deliver his first state of the union address expectations are high he will use it to promote his america first policy just last week he made good on his promise about trade slapping a big tariffs on soda cells made by chinese companies now americans did business in china say that move could. solar panel producers of the u.s. and europe have long complained of unfair chinese competition so it should have come as no surprise when he west president donald trump target an importer for the voltaic products when he imposed his very first import tariffs. i am taking action to oppose safeguard terrorists or aborted residential washing machines and all

solar products my administration is committed to defending american companies and they've been very badly hurt. so thirty percent tariffs were lower than us producers had been calling for but now u.s. business but china warn that beijing is set to strike back. if that does go forward. i have been told by certain officials that yes definitely there will be retaliation and they say there is little understanding in china for the u.s. position beijing believes the americans simply want to undercut their competitive advantage. one of the difficulties that members find in that we find in terms of meetings with the chinese come to an interlocutor chinese government officials and others. is a. willingness to acknowledge that their market is less open than ours

to begin with. and with washington preparing to announce the results of an investigation into whether trying to pressures companies to hand over technology there could be trouble ahead when it comes to dealing with china. whereas back to phil now in snacks at the ready because the biggest t.v. fest aside from the state of the union address of course it's because they're going to call in a super bowl thank you sir about that yes america's biggest sports show the super bowl takes place in minnesota on sunday the hype surrounding american football's phenolic is high with a new england patriots and the philadelphia eagles in town fans on media a gearing up for an unforgettable showdown. as the reigning super bowl champions the new england patriots know how to make an entrance this group of players led by star quarterback tom brady are the favorites to retain their crown on sunday the
