this is news coming to you live from berlin germany and turkey reboot relations but it is what cost critics fear german times like these used to a time cornish rebels in syria were part of a deal to free an imprisoned journalist now plans are being made for turkey's controversial president to visit berlin also coming up. mr zarif.

on the final day of the munich security conference benyamin netanyahu the israeli prime minister confronts iran over a drone shot down by israel iran's foreign minister gets back calling nessun you know whose appearance a circus act. and after u.s. officials indicted thirteen russians for meddling in the twenty six thousand election and x. troll tells t w they're just the tip of the iceberg in russia's fake news factory it's. also on the program a bonus legal battle of the ghosts you just mentioned up but hosted. visitors winning the last four times the two sides messed up but it proved to be a close game. and for female driven movies you see impressed at the berlin international film festival of you're about the italian adoption drama exploring a young girl's search for identity. plus the swedish black comedy is its divided

critic. oh i'm terry martin welcome to the program is not a rapid evolution of relations between germany and turkey last week turkey's prime minister been out the visit berlin and paved the way for the release of an imprisoned german journalist then over the weekend more signs of a thaw you'll do reamed told the german media he expected president to want to visit berlin soon amid hopes for renewed military cooperation the critics say it's the result of a secret deal for german tanks executives that will be closely scrutinising the words of turkey's prime minister the company has long been waiting to begin work with a turkish partner on

a tank factory in turkey the whole project is estimated to be worth some seven billion euros seeking speedy approval from the german government turkish prime minister been ali told the german press agency both sides will profit by building the tanks germany even more than turkey in january german foreign ministers. may signal berlin would ok a proposal to retrofit tanks with new anti mine systems but that plan was put on ice after turkey invaded syria's three in region with german built leopard tanks brail rejected speculation a deal for a tank factory would be approved. but critics fear there may be a secret deal to approve the tank factory in exchange for the recent release of the german journalist dennys you also missed the bit about the foreign minister would never admit it but in my view it's perfectly clear there's a connection there if you look at the whole story i assume is

a direct link to. the german foreign ministry has denied those claims it says the country's acting government doesn't have a mandate to make such a deal and the pulling out of the stick with this country's future governing coalition has agreed in its negotiations to further tighten weapons exports so i wouldn't be able to support an agreement like that. the tensions between berlin and ankara were again evident in an incident at the munich security conference german parliament member chen as the mere needed police protection for the duration of the summit after the turkish delegation which was staying in the same hotel as as the mayor labeled him a terrorist as the mayor has been a harsh critic of turkish president but fifty eight of these if representatives of such a country can call a member of the german parliament a terrorist than under normal circumstances one could react by asking have you lost your mind and when will you apologize but need to this took indeed german turkish

relations are far from returning to normal turkish foreign minister. who was blunt responding to questions about the mere saying simply he's lying. let's get some perspective on this with our political correspondent thomas sparrow good morning thomas first of all what's behind this allegation that we heard in that report there that the widely respected german parliamentarian former co-chair of the green party chairman samir that he is a terrorist worse is coming well we're talking here about one of the most important german but i mean terry and it's. me and he's of turkish origin and also one of very particular critic of the add on government and as we saw in our report a partner there was saying the same hotel and he was labeled a terrorist or a member of a terrorist organization something that he obviously rejected labeled a terrorist by whom well that's a big question if you ask. they say that that's not the case that he simply. and

that he's doing so to boost his own profile given the fact that he's no longer than leader of the green party here in germany so it's certainly an issue that just adds to it wide range of problems between turkey and germany it's really confusing i mean we heard it also in that report there that you mention it yourself that there's amir is accused of lying lying about what well specifically lying about all these allegations that he could have been able to terrorise the turkish authorities have said essentially that that's not the case that he wants to boost his profile by doing so and that's why all this happened very confusing ok just a couple of days ago turkey released the german turkish dual national journalist danish a very well known in germany for the different papers he's written for now he was held in jail in turkey for a year without formal charges being laid against him now his detention was all an obvious strain on german turkish relations what do you make of the speculation that

there is an arms deal done between germany and turkey to secure his release of this is being a very delicate topic in recent weeks in germany don't. now after his release about the possibility of this deal in order to secure his release if you ask german authorities if you ask germany's foreign ministers that my god will they will say that there's no deal no dirty deal no clean deal that's what he said himself he stressed that his release was pure act of diplomacy but there are voices not only in the german parliament but also well you can see on debate on television for example saying that that is not the case that it's certainly something fishy around for now there is to be nothing. it's a lot of speculation and some are saying there's actually a fall coming in german turkish relations we'll see about that so german turks relations thrust into the spotlight at the munich security conference which is what we're talking about really not a big focus at that spirity conference iranian israeli relations israeli prime

minister benjamin netanyahu at the conference stepping out using the platform for a very dramatic warning let's listen it israel's prime minister was in hawkish form when he took to the stage in munich in a blistering speech he slammed what he calls iran's aggression in the middle east here's a piece of that iranian drone or what's left of it after we shot a door and. i brought it here so you can see for yourself. mr zarif. do you recognize this. you should be george. you can take back with you a message to the tyrants which are on. do not test israel's resolve. netanyahu is a vehement critic of the twenty fifteen nuclear agreement negotiated between six

world powers and iran and he sees it as a form of appeasement that will prevent iran from building a nuclear bomb or maneuvering to become the dominant power in the region. i think it's time to stop them you know they're aggressive they're developing ballistic missiles they're not inspecting and they're going to have a free. to massive enrichment this has to be church a few hours later iran's foreign minister mohammad javad zarif addressed the conference brushing off netanyahu his remarks and calling israel the true aggressor . israel. uses aggression. as a as a policy against his name they can blame it for ever on iran but that won't resolve their problems. as the fifty fourth munich security conference comes to an end this verbal onslaught seems to indicate more uncertainty. is really iran clearly on

a collision course there were the only positive signals tomas' from the munich security conference concerning the prospects for diplomacy in peacemaking in the middle east well if you judge by what the chairman of the munich security conference. said not long ago he said there were some nice words but too many aggressive words and he described the situation in general the security situation as pretty gloomy and it's important to stress that the munich security conference is a place where specifically where you can specifically have those good points towards diplomacy where leaders need not only in these forums but they meet also on the sidelines so it is certainly portend for those leaders to have the possibility to meet what we're seeing here what we saw by those two leaders there was certainly not positive in being very combative. as someone who's been following munich

security conference for years tell us what your overall impression of things this time are that there are security challenges essentially everywhere not only in the middle east not only challenges here in europe but there were also interesting panels about. africa about the situation in africa and the hell region and you can look wherever you look there are very important challenges and challenges that essentially need cooperation on a wide scale it's not something that can just be decided by one specific act and i think that's one of the key elements that i would take from the munich security conference just now so multilateralism not dead thomas thank you so much thomas sparrow from our political desk. here watching the news let's take a look at some of the other stories making headlines today on hungary's prime minister viktor orban has called for a global alliance against migration this as his right wing party began campaigning ahead of an april election that is expected to win. urban orbán has pushed this anti immigration stance ahead of his bid for

a third consecutive term. the search and rescue efforts in central iran are due to resume on monday crews are still searching for the site of a plane crash in which sixty five people are feared dead bad weather forced rescue workers to break off their efforts on sunday. and mourners in the city of russia have attended the funerals of two seventeen year old boys shot dead in the southern gaza strip really forces say they also conducted air strikes against eighteen targets in gaza the raids came after an explosion near the border injured four israeli soldiers. you're watching the news still to come a former troll factory worker tells t w that the u.s. indictment against russian fake news pedlers is just the tip of the iceberg. dortmund or seven games unbeaten in the bundesliga after coach peter shergold under

coach peter but can they keep this rink alive against marching into the. welsh pens trade recovery is continuing helena has that story that's right terry we've seen strong growth in both imports and exports for the wall third largest economy so that means a continuation of the expansion which we saw in twenty seventeen continues when that was when the japanese economy grew at its fastest pace in thirty years now in january japan ended up working its first trade deficit in eight months strong consumer spending and a rise in the price of crude and not sure that's when the war was spent on imports the next pool's for the trade balance deficit running at almost eight point nine billion dollars last month that said the deficit was still slightly lower than expected. meanwhile more robust growth in asia is thailand's economy grew three

point nine percent in twenty seventeen field line increase in exports of machinery computers and cars now is the strongest growth in five years and while the tourism industry remains critically important exports now make up two thirds of the time column in other countries sometimes dubbed the detroit of the east because of the presence of several foreign automakers like food toyota and honda thailand also houses petrochemical electronic companies in growth this year eighty's for cost to top four percent. now germany is one of the world's top exporters but it when it comes to digital infrastructure you might be surprised to learn it's still lagging way behind take the. internet for example most data is still carry via underground copper cables which have been there for decades now the coalition agreement between germany's still not official new government specifies that every person living in the country should have access to high speed data networks by twenty twenty five it's hard to make anything anymore without access to the

internet it's what startups are all about and central to the operations of mid-sized companies and major corporations alike. but many places in germany outside the big cities suffer from slow connections germany is virtually a developing country when it comes to super fast fiber optic cables. in japan over three quarters of all broadband connections are over fiber optic cables latvia leads europe though with over sixty percent via fiber optics by comparison the average for all always nation to slightly over twenty two percent but here in germany only about two percent of broadband is delivered via fiberoptics. many businesses are frustrated with berlin because there has been little progress over the last few years there have been ambitious initiatives by earlier governments but

investment remains lacking. and joining me in the next hour is. a tech entrepreneur and board member of the federalization of german startups which has been calling for a digital ministry to tackle issues like poor internet among other things here in germany well india has experience in the calmest boom millions of consumers are now shop in line for everything from groceries cosmetics to electronics and furniture that means global giants amazon and ali baba having to fight for market share with indian rivals flipkart and snapdeal and they also face the challenge of delivering products across a vast country of one point three billion people our correspondents on the phone they sent us this report from debbie. every morning had in the cut now sets off in a job that requires speed and efficiency. the two things that india's overstretched roads do not provide. what in that works as

a delivery man your delhi e-commerce logistics shadowfax he has to deliver dozens of packages a day on titan to customers in hellish traffic. another problem is finding addresses in india's many unplanned settlements been codes house numbers and landmarks often inaccurate and confusing the one you so. often has to call customers for directions before he could make the delivery. that means he loses precious time further ramping up the pressure. finding addresses isn't easy sometimes there are several houses with the same numbers then we have to call up the customers sometimes several times customers get angry and they say why are you constantly calling me it's your job to find the address you're the delivery man so it's frustrating. the challenges are well known here

a travel fax started operates in seventy indian cities delivering everything from groceries electronics food to clothes co-founder by birth control is a big believer in technology to tackle just as. his company crunches traffic and location data and uses artificial intelligence and predictive analysis to optimize deliberately parts and times here i would say these problems can only be taken in the short term if you say in the long term yes the government needs for big actions according to it but in the short term it is definitely tech which can make businesses move faster the focus on technology also means delivery workers like her don't have to be trained in using the company's. tracks the entire supply process. at another shot a fax hub technology is also used to tackle one of the biggest headaches but logistics companies processing the huge volume of goods and happy customers written

. india's e-commerce market is growing fast it's estimated to reach one hundred billion dollars by two thousand and twenty the country's push to a digital economy is also driving more people to shop online. but getting deliberately just sticks right remains complicated in a country in which millions of customers are spread out across boston often unconnected areas. you pick from time to cover such a wide network with the infrastructure and challenges offered you know road network as well as really quick witted so need significant you know investment in the experience to come to sort of international standards e-commerce in india but the millions of brick and mortar corner shops across the country aren't going to disappear any time soon. back it is tearing down the very real phenomenon of fake news as right we're talking about trolls and things like that pretty scary

stuff actually the u.s. a special council has indicted thirteen russians accused of meddling in america's presidential election and that is putting kremlin backed internet propaganda in the spotlight an explosive report w's russia correspondent yury spoke to a former so-called troll she worked at the internet research agency in st petersburg a body identified by u.s. investigators as a factory for fake news. we're not allowed to disclose an exact address not even the district this young journalist could face repercussions two years ago she was working among russia's so-called internet trolls she had a job at the russian agency for internet research that's the official name of the sim petersburg troll factory whose buses have now been indicted by the united states. employees at the

troll factory get a list of topics every day that they have to work through that news about the united states was always one of the more important topics. but it was. two years ago we tried to make contact with those working inside these walls to no avail the revelations by luke miller lifted the lid on the trial factory unselfishly in a street here in russia's second city. curtains on the windows no sign at the entrance in this that unsuspicious looking building here in sand pit as burke called internet trolls a supposed to have dramatically meddled in the us election american investigators say. this video from inside the building was sent to us by another was. according to luke miller they're better paid than the average russian more than a thousand people work here according to her but it's not even the only troll

factory in russia. always less movement today no one can exactly say how far these trolls have really influenced the us elections and individual voters. but it's absolutely clear that there was a meddling going on. and. it's enough for just one person to put out false information in return for payment that clearly constitutes an attempt to tamper. yes. we did miller says the u.s. charges should serve as a wake up call for many. things new bern put in that seems worse there weren't just thirteen there weren't even just one hundred thirty of them there were many more there was and still is an enormous operation going on at that i see tessa biscay and the thirteen who have been accused are just

the ones the americans have got hard evidence against yet i hope the investigations will continue tendency with them there are simply so many people who are working professionally for the russian propaganda machine i hope that others will soon be investigated for what something means sure he is a good people and. until that time said petersburg is unlikely to be the sole source of russia's fake news. well football and a big game in the bonus league on sunday saw gladbach host dortmund in a duel for the european places. had a poor start to twenty eighteen data picking side of last four of their five games this year dortmund in contrast to found there for like an under coach. let's see what all fanned out for the two coaches enjoying a little bromance before the game pages jiggers man came through first mario good

between israel and iran were front and center israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu warned against rising iranian influence in the middle east iran's foreign minister zarif called netanyahu speech a cartoonish circuits. in the crane caught up with the german green party foreign policy spokesman nouri poor he has both german and iranian citizens shipped we asked him if the tensions laid bare on sunday could ignite a broader middle east conflict. there is a very harsh mutual paranoia between iran and saudi arabia setting a lot of fire in the region in yemen it's obvious that saudis are the bad guys in syria it's iran and we had a very tough rhetorical between this one in iran and i've very concerned that

this is not the worst time we could have in the middle east currently we could come to a real great and symmetric war and this wouldn't be the best thing for for no one israel the more or less directly threatened attack saying that it is prepared to act against iran essentially if no one else dies how worried are you that that could occur or was that partly theatricals on the part of mr netanyahu who have courses under a lot of pressure at home. i will not comment what's going on in this royal. it's obvious that he was talking about very concrete military measures i do not see vs germans are responsible and are for the security of israel and of course of your best partners with you and that's the best part is to be just can announce and then tell him that it's not a good idea to tool to talk about military measures you do not have i have no idea

how and then there is i have never seen someone in a military person who can tell me a whole in a military measure you can't stop the iranian nuclear program for example but they political consequences could be huge so i would talk about this measure on the table i would talk about how to calm down everybody it's obvious that iran is playing a highly aggressive role in the region in syria and lebanon and i understand that the traders are very concerned of iran being next to their border but. do we need to keep the j.c.b. away the iranian nuclear program to have inspections in iran to understand what's going on or and we need to waste soon. calm the situation down and it's not a part of it to talk about a military mission the iranian foreign minister tried to calm the situation down by proposing a new security architecture for the region saying that it should be similar to the helsinki process that did in fact help to deescalate the cold war and promote the

building of trust on the other hand this same foreign minister was described by mr netanyahu as a charming liar what do you think about the prospects of the proposal that was made here this morning by foreign minister zarif the proposal could be a good one in a moment when the iranians say we're getting out of syria and in the have they have a lot of military staffers there and they are absolutely clearly financing and supporting shia militias in iraq for example so it's quite difficult to say that there is a proposal for a new architecture and that's come together on talk while you have people outside shooting at the others so they have been a measure of trust building just proposing something is not one of the. john kerry accused the trumpet ministration of bad diplomacy saying that criticizing the iran agreement undermining it actually makes it harder to get iran to do the things

you're saying would you agree with that i fully agree with what john kerry said. we need to do c.p.r. way for inspections and there are a lot of other fields we have to cooperate be americans and israelis on iran iran is a huge challenge but we can't go on with the talks as long as they are trying to kill the only thing we have and this is the do so we have to risk you j c p a way of being that nuclear agreement with iran many many thanks to you for being with us today i'm annoyed for. that was all made nor poor they're the green party foreign policy spokesman here. in germany talking to my colleague linda crane at the at the security conference in munich now to france where aid workers say thousands of migrants are sleeping rough in appalling conditions that's despite an election promise by a president in money while not calling to curb the problem by the end of two thousand and seventeen now it looks like his government may have hit upon the

solution lisa lewis reports from paris on a new immigration law that will streamline the asylum process and make it easier for authorities to deport migrants. when abraham arrived in paris last year he thought he'd finally be able to start a new life the twenty year old senegalese had fled his country after his parents were killed by independence fighters in the southern region of cars and yet he has still not found a safe haven here. i think the police often come here to tear gas us there was a time when they showed up almost every day sometimes they tear down our tents just cause mayhem if someone had told me before hand that this was happening in france i would never have believed them and france calls itself the country of human rights i am deeply disappointed i feel sick. abraham has applied for asylum he could

stay at the public shelter but he prefers to sleep under this bridge he ironically calls this the hotel of the eighteenth. here he feels less at the government's mercy than public charter. minutes i'd rather die here than go to a government shelter migrants need to be respected to we are not facts leaves or beggars everybody could be in the situation no matter what the color of their skin portugal. aid workers say the pressure on migrants has been mounting since president in mind about call came to power and they think this could be just the beginning the government is working on a new tougher immigration law since it's really frightening we journey no anymore what to tell the migrants this new law will give migrants less time to apply for asylum and the government will be allowed to hold them in detention centers for

twice as long as you so you'll have more time to find a way to throw them out france is setting up the down right to put haitian machines used to send people back home. but the government says the stories of police violin . against migrants are just rumors and that even under the new law those who need protection will still get it and i haven't seen any pictures of policeman hitting migrants or taking away their tents and if that were happening it would be a scandal and we would have to put an end to it we believe and don't affirm that while at the same time being humane to view the new law streamline the asylum procedure so that migrants get a quick a decision and am stuck in limbo for so long if their request is turned down we will be able to deport them more easily they should trust us to give them the protection they need. but many of the migrants here don't trust the government about one thousand of them are camping out in the streets of paris despite freezing

temperatures even in this cold these people say that they won't go to public shelters because many of them are scared that if they do they will be picked up authorities and thrown out of the country. even i am hopes nevertheless that france will grant him asylum so that he can finally start over again. and i'm not asking the french to give me money or anything only want to continue my studies and meet them to protect me so that i can integrate into society i am praying for france to give me a chance. he wants to study french literature and one day find a girl and start a family then he will no longer be afraid or ashamed to show his face to the world . well yesterday was the fourth day of the berlin international film festival it was

a day dominated by strong willed women and their stories with me in the studio to talk about all that is my colleague melanie current the ball hello. you've been spending a lot of time with movies i guess yeah definitely not a lot of fun and i got to say how many how many movies do you think you've seen altogether and fifteen ok so you're spending a lot of time watching it now ok let's get to it one of the favorites for the golden bear this year that's the biggest award of the berlin film festival feel me ask you a bit more about that film in just a minute first let's have a look at what it's all about. it's a stunning portrait of motherhood figure me a daughter of mine father's ten year old victorian is nice turned upside down by the discovery of her birth mother forcing her to navigate a treacherous path between opposing maternal figure is.

even. that. intelligent and rich in metaphor the film dismantles the classic madonna and whole truth behind a complex picture of two powerful but flawed women. of my. love it is the work returning direct to lure the first female director of the competition so far the feature debut sworn version also starring about her by her was a bad analogy hits in twenty fifteen this time she's returning with renowned italian actress malaria galeano. and all and all i was the new go. i had to elbow my way in.

between them they are for a sensitive and moving exploration of the female condition. the idea was to investigate maternity in a more way to deconstruct the image of a perfect mother which is often idealized and to tell the story of inadequate mothers. women stories of front and center this year. but kim ashville here mia for its war and complex picture of womanhood you may be the prize how often you'll be on the edge of your seat. history missed out on a golden bear in twenty fifteen we may still have a weeks ago before this year's winner is announced. there's already chatted about whether this could be a year or. so for me. track for a golden bear or maybe oh what makes this film stand out from the competition right so as you've seen it's about this conflict centered around the young girl who was adopted off the bus and what makes the film so outstanding and special is really

this triangle relationship between these strong three female leads you have an abusive biological mother who's claiming the daughter back then you have the adoptive mom to his release. she might lose her and the center of it you have this young ten year old girl who's trying to find a sense of belonging and find out who she really is it's pretty moving so it's really powerful there was another strong female lead performance yesterday i understand in the swedish film the real estate tell us about that how about good and right so we have the real estate guy at two swedish directors and it's a bit of a we could call it maybe a dog comedy so we have a woman in her late sixty's she has always seen life as a big party and she doesn't really want to tell and and so she goes back home after she inherits an apartment block that had dedicated to ha and that she arrives just

to find a lot of chaos it all turns into a big night man she is self doesn't have any friends and feels like she's being taken advantage of but also has no sympathy for the immigrants living in the house but yes it's a strong female lead she plays the role of the businesswoman and fun to tell who takes things into her own and hands in the end and becomes a. core was so strong performances by female leads in this belly and all that's one of the big topics so women in cinema the me too movement also getting a lot of attention to have got a lot of attention the path towards something just last night to how is the meat to movement women in cinema in general making itself felt at the belly. so of course this is grass' rude campaign to speak out about sexual harassment in the film industry has also reached about in on its a big talking point that we found

a panel discussion seminar set up by the organizers we did not have a black cop it although the organizers did turn up in black in the open at the opening night and solidarity but we've had. tension paid to female voices and one of them is the curator of the pentagon that section has that as a writer and we have a piece on her for you let's take a look. at the belly now there has more to offer than simply the glamour of the main competition there's also challenging cinematic art getting audiences thinking the panorama section is known for films like that and this year under a new director passed last year oh it's tackling the topic of the moment. i think that this year the focus is on women and not simply because of the large number of women directors and producers nearly forty percent in our section but also because women are at the center of most of the productions we're showing and.

that's certainly the case in the opening film of the panorama special a self-confident woman doctor spends her vacation alone on a sailboat but an encounter at sea changes her journey dramatically she's just one of the courageous and assertive women on screen in the panorama. and kind of way of it and in general you can say that in all of the films but especially in the ones from latin america there's a strong resistance to portray in women as victims in the writing that make them up . like in this documentary from brazil you know. forms the guiding our must from spigot is knauss to score. us yeah we. both. it shows a transgender artist from the poor outskirts of sao paolo in her daily struggle against machismo this is one way films of the ballet nala responding to the me to debate. the fact that so many courageous women were willing to bring injustice
