3:03 pm
the s.p.d. at the moment party sources is a high calling muffs that the current justice minister here in germany that he will be filling in sigma gabriele shoes and will take over as german foreign minister now of course this could be quite a big challenge for heiko months and he doesn't have much experience with foreign policy but he is one of the big hopes in the s.p.d. in the in germany social democrats and he would then be one of the ministers in jail in merkel's cabinet with one of the highest profiles and we've just heard a few moments ago from sigma gabriele he actually welcomed they should news and said that he would actually leave the foreign ministry a happy man if this is indeed confirmed will become germany's next foreign minister if you had to go as mention heikal mosse also in the past i think i believe we have a little clip of what he had to say let's take a listen to what bill had to say about high costs. how does it feel to be leaving
3:04 pm
the position. it's true that i could be the new foreign minister then i have a really good feeling you'll do an excellent job and how do you feel it will. take you by. so that was germany's outgoing thought minister sigma and he seemed to indicate that he would be happy with heikal moss as the next foreign minister of germany tell us a little bit more about heikal muskett brady and what kind of a foreign minister would he make. of course so far he's served as for four years now as the justice minister in germany so isn't particularly well known outside of germany but this is certainly going to be a name which will got a much more attention in the coming days but this is of course yet to be actually confirmed and we're expecting to hear that tomorrow but of course he does have
3:05 pm
a lot of experience and this will recently we'll just have to wait and see exactly how much of a challenge this will be for him but he does have quite a high profile already and this could take him up for an even higher position in the s.p.d. in the future he is one of the big hopes and actually relatively speaking one of the younger members in the higher up in the s.p.d. ranks and as you said kitty is a popular minister in his current role as justice minister and so it was a signal but looking ahead as you mentioned the s.p.d. even officially presenting its lineup of cabinet ministers tomorrow meanwhile there are more and more names being leaked out as to who will be in the next cabinet tell us any interesting names that we should look out for. exactly so there will be quite a few faces and names when you might recognize already as catarina body she's currently the women's family and youth minister and she's expected to perhaps take over the
3:06 pm
leyva ministry post then there's also thomas open man he's expected to perhaps until then hike on march issues in the justice ministry and he's also the former poly mentary group leader for the s.p.d. another name that's come out today is franziska gifty and she is currently the mare of the noise coal district of lynn and so then that would also go to her presence there would increase alongside catarina body the representation of women in the ministerial positions and she's also from former east germany and that was also an issue when the ministerial posts from the c.d.u. its merkel's conservative party were first announced there were a lot of complaints that there wasn't any more representation from politicians from the former east apart from of course angela merkel who even herself wasn't actually born in former east germany so lots of new faces and that representation of females
3:07 pm
and the former east will also be increased if these names are confirmed rugby league tomorrow a pretty meanwhile at a bottom and pursuit is thank you very much for that. turning out to denmark invented matson has denied killing spree destroying the skim wall as his much anticipated murder trial opens in denmark wall disappeared last august off to boarding a submarine belonging to months and she intended to profile him for an article but never returned her head listen to also was later found in copenhagen hava prosecutors seeking to have math in jail for life he says she died in an accident but has admitted dismembering woods body before dumping it its spots at sea. her killing shocked the world prosecutors say swedish journalist ken wall died under horrific circumstances inventor peter madsen invited her to interview him on

3:14 pm
later this year the e.c.b. seemingly the central bank thinks that the economy is in better shape at fifty two years old growth forecast margin need to two point four percent and it says the bank's base interest rate is staying put out where it is around zero percent that's where it has been since twenty sixteen. well the e.c.b. president mario draghi has warned about growing protectionism and indeed lay stay donald trump may sign off on new trade tariffs on imported on a minimum steel that take effect within a month canada or mexico could be exempt but not the e.u. and brussels announced yesterday that it is poised to strike back in what could be the beginning of a global trade war. donald trump's tariffs could soon drive up the price of important steel and aluminum in the u.s. but with talks underway to renegotiate the north american free trade agreement the white house now says its neighbors might not be included. and there are potential

3:16 pm
worried about a major upheaval in the pricing structure of their most important market and a potential flood of cheap steel from china that is no longer going to the u.s. . and we'll keep you updated on that decision when it comes back even out so you amrita as women around the world make their voices heard and so this should every day specially today on international women's day demonstrations are underway around the world as women push for progress protestors in spain got an early start launching a twenty four hour women strike the demanding an end to unfair wages domestic violence and the country's prevailing macho culture similar sentiments were echoed elsewhere as women gathered in solidarity around the need to movement in cities including new delhi and jerusalem. not to mark international women's day did our views profiling women around the world who are working to bring about change now these very men work in different professions in different countries

3:18 pm
a teenager more than thirty years ago for a long time city officials and residents had a straw and she toiled in filthy unsanitary conditions that treated nine years ago when hostler joined a co-operative because called scotch it struck a deal with city authorities to get the rights to collecting the city's garbage. earlier there was so much discrimination we couldn't even use public taps to drink the water people used to call us thieves now there's been a huge change people let us into their homes to get the garbage some even offer us a glass of water we provide a perfect have also improved the corporate it services about six hundred thousand households across the city from slums to high rises our municipal authorities provide workers like also the protective gear and health insurance it's also can use the energy to know it's something should remember these weeks because we're
3:19 pm
denied. houses in this apartment is sixty rupees that's less than a year old every month for the garbage collection service. fighting for her rights something her saluted a corporate. along with other ways because she's on the organizations board many women including cos are illiterate but that hasn't stopped them from making their voices heard here was even invited to france a few years ago to speak about with because rights. activists because they've come together formed their own and they are the decision makers of this organization itself means there's a lot of process up and problem and that's going on before. twice a week or so heads to a neighborhood scrapped. with separating plastic paper and glass she salvagers the recyclables from the daily garbage. the trash which is for the sole to recycling

3:21 pm
a sense of dignity. so as i mentioned it's international women's day and we've been hearing about events to mock that including widespread protests demanding progress around the was and with me in the studio is the fabulous scout in hempstead. also a woman welcome. to you now you know we have a women's day every year but this is this seems to be a particular resonance with the women's day tell us about i would definitely agree with that observation i mean last year they were still handing out roses but this year really seems that there is an absolute new momentum after the events of late last year that that sparked the me too movement as we've seen a lot of things happening obviously you mentioned earlier in the show the first feminist protest in spain that's happening today but there are other things for instance there's a pioneering women's history football history conference kicking off today in manchester imagine the french left leaning newspaper leave it are still in paris actually was offering its newspapers to discount prices for women today so it's
3:22 pm
kind of interesting that the sorts of things that are happening showing us that we're coming into a kind of a new normal if you will in terms of how much attention the idea of gender equity is getting to two thousand and eighteen of course it's a very special year also because here in germany it marks one hundred years since women were actually given the right to vote so here we are a century later we have a female chancellor a female defense minister britain is already on its second female prime minister so let's have a quick look at the journey the women's movement has taken over the last hundred years. women rise up around one hundred years ago british suffragettes took to the streets the story was retold in a recent film starring meryl streep. they got the vote but traditional ideas of a women's role persisted after the second world war women who had worked while the men fought demanded more in france the more broadened the debate to gender norms
3:23 pm
and became an icon of second wave feminism. the up people of one thousand nine hundred sixty eight brought german feminists to the fore. boxer was a radical proponent of a woman's right to choose hundreds of women declared i pads and abortion. today a new brand of feminists continues to provoke the feminine group bare all to confront the continuing oppression of women. russian collective pussy riot protested against putin with a punk prayer in a church feminism has turned the volume up and knows how to grab media attention hollywood too has taken up the cause actress jennifer lawrence has declared herself a feminist. british actress emma watson is a un women goodwill ambassador rebellious and committed it's not bad for the image
3:24 pm
either. scarlett johansson called for an uprising against sexism at the women's march on washington having a u.s. president who's been accused of sexual misconduct has galvanized activists. so we have a wide spectrum that counted from simone de beauvoir to scarlett johansson you don't think a white free to talk about women's rights but the moment you mention the feminists you know everyone. it's funny because feminist feminism such a dirty word for so long that it's really amazing to see it actually being. of the bags but it's definitely helpful to get a bit of perspective i have some fun facts for you because the levels of acceptance obviously are so diverse the very first country in europe to give women the vote was finland when it was still part of the russian empire that was back in one thousand nine hundred seven and new zealand was actually a real trailblazer and gave women the right to vote in eight hundred ninety three countries the other extreme of course is saudi arabia which didn't allow women to
3:25 pm
vote until twenty fifteen so the spectrum is really very very wide in terms of what we call a feminist and feminist but there are a number of really strong voices who have been and are continuing to reclaim not term now i'm thinking pretty in particular of the nigerian author chimamanda ngozi adichie who wrote the famous essay who should all be feminists. staunchly defended the term calls are collect calls i would on our collective cultures for teaching girls to make themselves small in africa and elsewhere she refuses to be apologetic for her femininity and insist that a feminist can be a man or a woman who has recognised that there's a problem with gender as it is and we need to fix it. well said now social media has taken this whole debate and discourse to another dimension i want to get it's absolutely true and the discussion is rife there are so many really good bloggers out there very influential bloggers who've been active for a long time but who are using this momentum and inspiring
3:26 pm
a lot of other women i'm thinking also of the nigerian finnish swedish writer. who is behind the blog politan she's been referred to as one of the key feminist voices of our times and she says let's make feminism the leading idiology of the future not because it became mainstream but because the mainstream became feminists pick up on that idea of mainstream because feminist current is counted as leading feminist websites founded by the vancouver based journalist murphy and she is always looking to get a really against the. crain perspective on equality issues that are ignored by mainstream media so here's a quote that she wrote after the grammys the great irony of the music industry is that women's bodies are being used for profit to sell women's and men's music alike but the actual females who inhabit these bodies are still incredibly marginalized in the industry so she's one of those voices out there who is not afraid to criticize even what's happening in the ranks of popular feminism and always ready
3:27 pm
to take a hit so which brings the whole biggest back to full circle to the need to end times of campaigns definitely as well as interesting we come back to the music and film industries where we've seen an awful lot of movement last year and in the beginning of this year and we are going to be picking up on this actually if i can just do a plug here for a special edition of r.'s twenty one this coming saturday where we will be meeting with young women filmmakers and talking about how difficult it is for them to be recognized within their profession women from oman. i think places like us belgium turkey a very very broad spectrum there so if ever there was an exciting time to be a woman it is definitely now and i guess that's obviously very good news for all of our daughters too isn't it. to this thank you very much for that pleasure. you know washing d.w. news coming to you live from london we have lots more coming up this not small international women's day coming up on our website at www dot com as well as after a short break i'll be back with you soon so do stay with the w.'s if you can.

3:31 pm
south koreans have been rallying in support of the me to movement against sexual harassment. and staying with the need to movement we want to get the views of several women around the world i have with me in the studio christina loon's she's the editor of the liberty magazine here in germany a magazine which refuses to put women into stereotypical boxes and categories in delhi we have covered krishnan she's a secretary of the all india progressive women's association and a leading spokeswoman on gender issues and violence against women and in france we have gloria friedman the sculptor who signed the controversial letter from actress catherine deneuve criticizing the me to movement but fust lives here about the kids three of the social media campaigns drawing attention to sexual assault and that's with social media editor sophie graham lind.
3:32 pm
that's right only down we've all heard about the me too but it's actually the first time that woman has used social media to draw attention to sexual harassment. it's actually been staying up ever since twitter began and the first one was actually in germany. in twenty thirteen a protection made lewd comments about female journalists the result was i or outcries it went viral and the lawmakers party didn't make it into the next parliament. in finland and twenty fifteen sexual assault was nonexistent in the o. pinion of a male police chief women reacted with stories proving the opposite and that he has checked the meaning groper. across the world in argentina need when i'm in us not one less on of the tens of thousands of women killed each year by domestic violence and france and twenty sixteen crew lot gates appeared after the french finance minister grabbed a journalist underwear when she bent down to retrieve a pen laid out the last one poor or out your pick point of the finger right back at
3:33 pm
the harassers. and in summer at twenty seventeen in india a woman was chased on her way home a petitions that was her own thought she was roaming the streets late at night the result hashtag a dozen other. months there one came forward with tales of decades of abuse at the hands of hollywood producer harvey weinstein new to went viral after actress alyssa milano asked for mental help highlight the magnitude of the problem that's been followed by time's up used to tell the world that things have got to change back to you and rita thank you very much and sophie still host of campaigns from around the world and let's get the discussion forward in a casino let me start with you as an sophie explained the journey had its own hash tag called the why did you don't have the same impact as the me two movement. i think the reason for that is the whole feminist movement itself it is it's
3:34 pm
a development i mean if you're looking at where we're coming from we were talking before. women gaining the rights to vote and many other steps into the right direction it is the progress and society is very hesitant to grant equal rights to other groups that have not traditionally had the privilege of having them so the the backlash will always be there but i guess it will be ideally less and less over time over time as more people more women dare to speak out right let me turn to you know in a dead you know indian women have recently started fighting back against you know every day how this went on public transport for example and on the street is it working. they haven't recently started it's actually been dampens of the sky and you know there are several decades now and so you know you have different forms and shapes that it except of course so i think the point is not if it is working or not what is great is that you find women coming forward and
3:35 pm
such large numbers to see exactly what they mean which is in india what happens is that the minute you see your unsafe this is oh ok so you are unsafe in the name of your safety let's increase your hostile customs let's make sure you are not outside out there so that because it's unsafe if you are outside so they meet women the problem and them a lot women up an implement system and what you have now is women are from college campuses all over the country and so on coming forward to say you can't do that you know we want our freedom and we also want to be safe and the responsibility for our being saved in public spaces lies on the authorities there to ensure that public spaces are tended to women and that we have every right to be out in public spaces at all hours at night in the so this is an ongoing struggle of course but at the they for the very fact that these boys abhorred is important. but i would say if you were to be a difficult situation in india right now because the government that we have. point
3:36 pm
power now have an extremely fascist are like the apple you of women and so basically you have just yesterday you have a government in russia stand of the state that is quite lost or delhi saying women cannot wear western florence if they go to college they have to wear what are indian clothes and this in men have also there been a desk or for men but the men are allowed to basically wear western plot the idea of the burden is on women to pull the engine and this is just one instance you have a lot of violence against women work to that against our government that we come back to that again but let me just go in gloria in france you are you'll find a letter written by catherine deneuve criticizing the meter movement think it had gone too far tell us what you are tell us more about your viewpoint on this. first of all i want to do a show that i'm in a feminist woman and i'm working on a new member and but in fronts maybe we've now had the internet and never
3:37 pm
india france a very k. and of the countries so let's say that in in france a meet to movement was called you launched your peak which is quite it's a very aggressive point to say if you tend to do nation in a way you know you're signing something up launched your pick and as if it was really horrible then it perhaps compare it to america we have in france a different plaintiff you own six or harris mint. i'm against rape i'm against any section bloody aggression but i mean this is a gray zone somewhere steps should be stocking. you know between sexes what ever succeed means. this is something which it's very difficult to to tell anybody what happens in c.
3:38 pm
situations so we should be in a way i think we should be more. put a point of view on education. let's get out of see relative to rose kind of moral girls and blue light kind of boys let's it tells an indication where we tell them how to react how they should build friendships between sexes and generosity right back to that we come back to that because you receive a critical point the gray zone the battle is actually being fought in the gender battle in this gray zone but before we proceed with our discussion i let me just bring in another element we caught up with again too she's an actor who was one of the first to accuse the movie mogul harvey weinstein off sexual abuse let's take a listen the truth is that we've been abused by powerful men that there is a power imbalance in the world and that's why this men were able to abuse us and we
3:39 pm
were too scared to denounce so what is happening now is that finally women for the first time are being believed and we're speaking the truth and this has now become you know much broader. matter it's not anymore and it is of course about sexual abuse and harassment but it's also about power imbalance and we men and women have to find their their spot in society where we are finally equal. tried lifting up a groom and talk to you on a you know what extensively on gender politics in terms of foreign policy as well do you agree with that this agenda is actually power imbalance which underscores gender. sexual assault and violence against women absolutely i completely agree and and it's not only what people would think it was proven it is if you do have an understanding of history and of the history of human of mankind of human kind and.
3:40 pm
how women and other groups have been treated in that history there is no doubt that there is an imbalance and that over the past hundreds of years women and other groups have been fighting to get the rights they deserve whereas with why did making saluted progress because the backlash is immense because those in power and those enjoying certain privileges then look very keen on losing that. that is the biggest problem and i guess another big problem is that so many people think they understand the situation and they can contribute to it whereas the conversation would be a lot more progressive of only experts those in ascending the history of those of us than they help works in society is structured this nation if they contributed to the to the discussion project we joined in delhi cover that you were talking about the situation there on the ground at one level you have the prime minister talking
3:41 pm
a lot about empowering women imparting the good side at the same time the situation on the ground appears to be very different tell us more. the slogan that the prime minister has given which means save your daughters and educate your daughters that's actually called the slogan it's exactly the same sealants a good artist which was given to instigate violence. racial communal violence against muslim man. i notice a see your daughter's means course of abortion but it also means if your hindu family saved your daughter from falling in love the muslim man the muslim man who might fall another daughter is actually an atheist so the idea is that. as a there's a blurring of the boundary between rape and between consensual sexual relationships or managed between a woman and a man especially when the man is a muslim of the man and some of the ballot oppressed community. so i think of
3:42 pm
course that those attitudes already then society but what's happening is that the you know the government in power not their growing up on and you know your or your german chancellor know where i'm coming from because that is a similar to what i think there's certain in mind companies talking about how the jew is essentially have a line in which to seduce the and pollute the white race and they're also bringing in you know the n. word black people from outside to pollute the race it's exactly the same kind of discourse that's been deployed here and of course that's violence against women so enjoys it's women's own. power to choose their own partners in their lives as they want to lead and it's also a very organized violence of course against the minority community in india which is the muslim community and other minorities in india and it's on the whole that entire discourse lead to that then hostile somebody just mentioned a backlash that in the backlash in india you're is at many levels you have an institutional backlash we just don't need to there you know give far court
3:43 pm
judgments that really horrific against women out undermining what is then people in the law at the same time you also. an organized political backlash we just branding women like myself as at the national so if i talk about women sour ginger new things i'm branded as anti national i see it's violence i feel violent threats online i feel are violent threats physically have been prevented put speaking out after minutes gatherings among young students and on campuses and so on i've been attacked for so doing are by the supporters of the government because they have said that what she says is is against our what is our culture so they define indian culture really matter least as are all those that area who practices right now that is not much that is a difficult situation mcgiver you were talking about this gray zone where there's a green zone between what is permissible and what is not but this seems to be a difference in the understanding of female understanding of what is permissible
3:44 pm
and a male understanding of what is permissible is that of a single getting very complex no i mean you have. a friend from india then we had this woman from hollywood and now i'm speaking from a french situation those is a completely different french situations in a way you see i mean the hollywood situation to get become a movie star is something a bit different and we are living in india where all you know the newspaper business which is completely the internet and then you are pardon me for interrupting you but this is not a very complex situation the me too movement has shown that this was a digital campaign which has resonated with women across the world not just in one country not just on one continent. yes but. i will tell you today i mean it's in france we say it's a day of the woman then in so you can women here which is again very completely
3:45 pm
different sure it's an international situation but you must say that in europe we have an advanced suggestion for women which doesn't exist in not developed countries so we have different reactions you see i mean as myself i never had any problems working i was a gris very little and when something happened i could respond plan i had an education to do something nexus you see ok bring us a bit of a final question i put that to you christina tell me again when we talk about this discourse is it important for us to actually make men a part of this not a tip as as well. of course they have to be in that part of the society and that's the question and i'm just going back to what was just said i think this is one of the biggest problems that people always think that. talking about. individual cases when they haven't had any bad experiences means that we don't have
3:46 pm
a problem in society is that it's one of the very problems that couldn't be more evidence they couldn't be more research showing the problem so it is a societal problem it's a problem of power imbalance and power structures and of course men have to be a part of the discussion because we want to change how poets distributed within society and men still get most part of it and shifting that poem means they are involved in this discourse maybe at that at a disadvantage so of course they have to be a part of a lot of this discussion because often as we heard gloria talking about educating i think we have to educate both sexes in. wanted reality to see that here in germany in delhi and gloria in france thank you ladies very much for taking part of this very important discussion on international women's day. you're watching news coming up ahead think germany can dance away with the prize for

3:48 pm
balance i feel very comfortable and i too worry kids though i had have nothing to complain about i think they tried to give it the new touch because last year we were wearing suits the women were presses so this time it's way more casual and it's maybe more familiar to be more familiar with the clients not everyone is following the same dress code though and the auto industry's gender problem isn't really about clothes but representation men still vastly outnumber women there and at this motor show two it took a while to find a because she's the chief autonomy's lead from oil flextronics mobility subsidiary and the only woman i've heard speak at the car salon this year but she says more coming i'm seeing a lot of talented young female people that are shaping the future of being here together in geneva and being on stage was actually a really emotional moment because michael week told me that she is seeing after

a really long time of the first time a woman on the stage the geneva motor show is supposed to be a showcase of industry trends but those don't just have to be technological it could be a platform for a cultural shift in gears as well. after hollywood politics and governance and the sports world the need to movement has come to motor shows now as well well sort of there's a markedly less objectification than in the last years even if it's not completely gone but in terms of taking women seriously the auto industry still has miles to go there's still only one female c.e.o. of a major automotive company and she's not even here. do. they did have a motion to show well the right to vote equal opportunities the same pay for the same what women around the world have been fighting for these rights for over one hundred years some milestones have been reached but many have not women in germany

less than men sometimes for the same job but more often than not it's because they get jobs that are paid less they're all still not enough women in managerial positions. women in gemini and less than men sometimes it's for the same job but more often than not it's because the jobs they get paid less they're still not enough women in managerial positions often because women and women have to work in part time job so they can take care of the family for example the situation for women is only was in the stand here in the czech republic in germany women almost twenty two percent less than men the average pay gap in the e.u. is around sixteen percent and statistically it's only have the smallest pay gap of five point two percent. less pay and part time work has a devastating effect in many ways the less money a woman is in a career the lower half pension is the number of women in germany who are in danger
