explain how great i think it's only the beginning of this side of human machines starting february first on t w. this is the leaders live from u.s. president donald trump prepares to deliver his first state of the union address bill celebrates a robust economy and push for congressional action on immigration bring you a preview from washington also on the program. kenya's opposition leader stages his own presidential inauguration and then the government out goes his political

movements so it's the same set for more political violence. on germany's would be governing coalition partners hammer out a deal to allow refugees to bring family members to join the. 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 naam. welcome alexandra's. 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 special counsel robel to muller so it is a huge opportunity for president trump now to lay out his political agenda to tell

what 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 his 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 here he is 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 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 his 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. he's under fire 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 scientist with a castle's who also specializes in u.s.

economics or welcome to d w. which trump then are you expecting to see today or to q trump to stick to a carefully crafted script or tweeting trump who goes off script. predicting trump behavior is 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. and the us economy for the most part is doing very well because the world economy is doing well what you 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 you're looking for bipartisan support then what what's you 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 road spilled ings that could be something that democrats could agree on. ok. there are rumors as well that he's going to make i open 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 lee in his rhetoric. it remains to be seen i think what 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 ok so you'll get with us later during the lead up to president to speech which will be broadcasting life and how the. guests thank you so much. just so that you know president terms state of the union address starts at two am u.t.c. admiral carried here live let's have a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world separatists in yemen backed by the united arab emirates have seen the area around the presidential

the kenyan capital to support opposition leader right. supporters have been gathering in hutto park since early this morning. is an important day for us and our common time i don't want to miss our sorrow we. think that was after that citizen of this country not allowed to this will be a summer here and the left all presidents as well the posters of. the police initially used tear gas to disperse the crowd while loading a wanted to use this occasion to denounce a vision he says was brought about by election rigging at noon he we cited an oath of office in a mock inauguration and pronounced himself the people's president. so today is 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 hu kenyatta as reelection amid low voter turnout he had three private broadcaster shut down to prevent a live transmission of the ceremony present a very very difficult that was a difficult of the right information center and the petition but the good thing is that we have social media which are not used and there is a very. big to get information out of these because mainstream media has always been compromised. 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. germany's two main political parties have my the major breakthrough in that efforts to form

a new coalition government chancellor merkel's conservatives on the side to left social democrats say they have reached agreement on refugee family be humans a few g.'s already will be allowed to bring their families to join them of they'll be a limit of the number will be allowed to do so. i did the parts is it as pretty had courses where those talks have been that taking place so welcome shot with 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 this question 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 to family reunifications for those refugees mostly from. affected by the civil war in syria and the critics are saying the loses of this whole discussion while both parties are claiming victory the loses 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. they're going to limit the numbers about reports of their 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 they feel one thousand of a bomb that's going to be and interesting discussion that takes place the parts from my side here. corporate america is taking matters into his own hands it seems when it comes to the health care reform online retailer amazon or in buffett's box

a half away and j.p. morgan chase are teaming up to offer their u.s. employees quality health care they say at a reasonable cost will be three c.e.o.'s said the new company will be independent and free from profit making incentives the initial focus would be on technology to provide simplified high quality and transparent kabal shares in health care companies took a big hit in early trading on the new york stock exchange hinting at the threat that the new entity poses to existing health care structures in the u.s. when our financial correspondent yen school it is in new york for us he has been tracking that story yes with the future of the u.s. health care reform unclear that is this a case of seizing a business opportunity old stepping into a gap and providing a service because they find something lacking. well i mean certainly the u.s. health care system is extremely expensive americans spend about three point five

trillion dollars each year on their health stats roughly twenty percent of total g.d.p. but they're also might be incentive to join those companies in the future if they can really offer you cheaper health care we've seen something similar by the way after world war two when companies were not allowed to increase wages too much soul they got new talent they got workers was offering social incentives like pensions or health care financed by the corporation and as we are seeing almost full employment in the us that could be a way for those companies to attract talent and skilled workers all right meanwhile yes we've been seeing quite the sell off that so why have investors been so stressful. i mean certainly the health care stocks did not help we had

pharmaceuticals we had insurance companies that we had to direct or stay and the chains are for quite some under quite some pressure but probably cause the sell of that already started on monday is the bond market do we see a yields in kuwait in korea increasing quite a bit just specially for the ten year note and that means on one side that there we will see an alternative to stocks and then on top of it if rates are going to increase more than recently expected that also makes debt more expensive so that probably because of the sell off and was into trading days we're down almost five hundred fifty points for the dow jones right yes go to on wall street thanks for that yes. now the u.s. president will deliver his first state of the union address later in which he is expected to promote his america first policy just last week he made good on the promise when it came to his trade policy slapping tariffs on solar panels made by

chinese companies and the americans doing business in china say that move could backfire. 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 u.s. president donald trump target an important photo voltaic products when he imposed his very first import tariffs. i have taken action to oppose safeguard tariffs on imported residential washing machines and all solar products my administration is committed to defending american companies and they've been very badly hurt. the thirty percent tariffs were lower than us producers have been calling for but now us businessman china warn that beijing is set to strike back. if that does go forward. i have been told by certain officials.

yes definitely there will be we'll tell you. 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. known willingness to acknowledge that the air market is less open than ours to begin with. and with washington preparing to announce the results of an investigation into whether trying to pressure is companies to hand over technology there could be trouble ahead when it comes to dealing with china. island to hold a referendum that could open the door to reforming the country's near total ban on
