4:00 pm
this is d.w. news live from berlin a call to arms by french president in my one month old and a speech to the european parliament bunghole urges europeans to reject authoritarianism and defend their model of democracy kills the polls for critical debate on the future of the e.u. also coming up after days of waiting syrian state media says international experts have now entered the site of an alleged chemical weapons attack but accusations are rife that she evidence may have been removed. it's a cold war but not as we know it in a rare joint statement the us britain and australia accuse russia of cyber
4:01 pm
espionage and planning to sabotage western infrastructure. also coming up in the next sixty minutes he's known as astro alex chancellor merkel prefers to call in germany's ambassador to space now astronaut alex and i guess is preparing his next big step as commander of the international space station. and then football bar in munich have already celebrated one trophy this season but can they make it true or even three with the german cup and reach it gives the semifinals testbed leverkusen tonight. i'm sorry so much got to good to have you with us french president to man why marco has condemned the rise in the thora turning as i'm in the e.u. and urged europeans to defend their democracy my call was outlining his vision for the future of europe in a speech to the european cup. element in strassburg he said the e.u.
4:02 pm
was failing to address the fears and concerns of its citizens and that change is long overdue. you should read don't think there is doubts in a number of european countries and month off to month these doubts seeing office call our foundations into question the fundamental seems to be a sort of european civil war national selfishness and egotism taking precedence over what unites us this accusing the let's bring in max hoffman here was listening in to my conservation strasberg for us a little bit earlier today how max we heard a model mic on there say a sort of european civil war and those are pretty strong words the same to be directed at certain member states to the east what did you make of that yeah i do agree with that sumi especially countries like hungary where you have prime minister viktor orban that he was already leading his country into the sort of authoritarian democracy that michael rejected in his speech here in front of the
4:03 pm
european parliament in strasburg he's a defender of liberal democracy so that was a clear message to the east but not only to the east also back home to france we shouldn't forget who we're dealing here with the money remark all made of his program actually to fight for liberal democracy to promote the european union in a positive way on apologetically against you know penn who of course is one of the most successful right wing populists of europe and it seems like he wanted to prescribe the rest of the european union here. of what made him successful last year and he was laying out his vision for the future of europe max what is that vision. yeah here it gets a little more complex of course he touched upon number of subjects as all the heads of state and government that so far have spoken here at the european parliament just to give you an example taxation of the digital economy creating more revenue
4:04 pm
using that money to have its own budget to make smart investments in the european union but the core here of course is to have a more comprehensive european union one of the most important goals he's been mentioning over the last months is the reform of the euro zone repeatedly he said he wants a european finance minister that did not appear in this speech any more today one of those reasons might be that he's trying to go easy on the german chancellor i'm going to mexico has a tough time selling this suggests and back home in berlin they're probably going to talk about it on thursday when he goes to berlin but he didn't mention their own budget for the euro zone that he has been trying to sell in the past now this all of this is not new so how does he want to be more creative and find what he calls this new project for the european union he wants everybody to debate in the european union in town hall meetings for example but also online and find what unites the union and what separates the union use all this to go forward and then
4:05 pm
you know although the ideas weren't really new he did have some very strong moments for example when he said i don't want to be part of a generation that sleepwalks through life i want to be part of a generation that really fights for democracy and he also touched on syria max let's listen to what he had to say their cooperation that killed three countries intervened and let me speak frankly this is for the of the international community we made sure that we did this within a legitimate framework in a civilized way that where no human victims not a single human victim. we destroyed three sites where chemical weapons were being produced all processed sheik. came across as particularly agist agitated and even angry why do you think that is. you know he really got worked up there and that was
4:06 pm
sort of a surprise well first of all he got a lot of flak because of the syrian invention last week but i think there are really two points here we have to mention the first one is he genuinely feels like what's happening in syria is terrible atrocities and you know objectively that is the case he feels like he can't just stand there and do nothing that there is a responsibility by countries in the european union to do something about that he doesn't know that it won't change much he actually said that here in parliament still he said we have the obligation to act so that's one part of that the second part of that he might feel he's not getting enough help here because he specifically mentioned and i think we just heard that in the sound bite that only three countries save the honor of the international community now if you mention that specifically that only three countries were part of this you're indirectly of course criticizing the countries that virtually did nothing here so he's sending a message there max to his european partners do you think that europe will find
4:07 pm
a common strategy for syria. oh politically that is no problem for example the foreign minister is released in a statement on monday what they believe is common ground so things we've heard in the past humanitarian corridor political solution involving the united nations with the security council but that self we've been hearing really for the last seven years since since the beginning of the war in syria so there they can agree on this but it hasn't helped now they can't agree on something when we're talking about military means and those for two reasons first of all many countries in the european union including germany are just not ready to intervene because they don't have the backing of their population the germans are or understand themselves as a mostly pacifist nation ever since the second world war so they don't want to intervene in the even if they wanted to they probably would not have the means to do so and that's the case for many european union countries if you really get down
4:08 pm
to it there are only two countries who can do that in the e.u. that's the u.k. the united kingdom and france and those are the two that usually do what you could call the dirty work all right debbie's max has been reporting for us from strasburg thank you max. well here in germany the chairman of the german parliamentary foreign affairs committee and an ally of chancellor rakhal has reiterated the urgency for france and germany to work together on european unity. to underline that we are determined to achieve results on the range of issues that we see that there is a range of opportunity but this window is going to close the year because next year we will have european elections so we will have to come to results and that. in our times of how to globalisation. and unraveling of liberal everywhere partly within europe that it is really of
4:09 pm
a news story importance that france and germany come together and try to turn things to the better. to syria now where after days of delay international investigators have reportedly now entered the town believed to be the site of an alleged chemical weapon attack western powers believe the syrian government struck the town of duma with poison gas earlier this month killing dozens of people that triggered punitive airstrikes by the u.s. britain france those countries now accuse syria and its ally russia of attempting to cover up evidence of the alleged attack. as relations between russia and the west threaten to deteriorate ever further amid tensions over syria and a whole range of other issues german chancellor i'm going arkell has spoken by phone with russia's vladimir putin the two leaders agreed that only a political process could end the conflict in syria but made it clear that a telephone conversation alone would not be enough to get relations back on track.
4:10 pm
but i had a fine call with russian president vladimir putin. i think will meet sometime soon but we didn't set a date today. i think that the number of issues that we have from ukraine and gas supplies to the big big issue of syria require us to meet face to face in the foreseeable future. all right let's take a look now at some other stories making news around the world eight men are set to go on trial in india for the rape and murder of an eight year old girl now the supreme court has ordered protection for the victim's family and their lawyer the case has stirred controversy in india and a lawyer said she had been threatened for taking up the case. japanese prime minister shinzo avi has gone to washington where he says he wants to find common ground with u.s. president donald trump on how to deal with north korea's nuclear challenge tokyo
4:11 pm
might make too many concessions in his planned meeting with the north korean leader kim jong un next month. demonstrators have clashed with police in the armenian capital given for the fifth day they don't want former presidents. to be elected prime minister which members of parliament are expected to do today the protesters say it's fair to say and has been in power for too long and that recent constitutional changes give them too much power as prime minister. you're watching the news still to come on the program a team of astronauts including german alexander gas are preparing a new mission to the international space station we'll hear about some of the experiments there are planning to carry out while they're in space. but first as we heard tensions are already high between russia and the west and now ben there are accusations flying of a new threat coming from parts of the planet at the moment kremlin backed is said to be honing their skills the cyber attacks have been going on for some time but an even bigger one could be on its way russia says look at me dismissing today's
4:12 pm
warnings from london and washington as groundless. the hacking accusations against russia came in a rare joint statement the british and u.s. cyber agency said russia could be laying the foundation for future offensive cyber attacks they warned that hackers backed by the russian government were targeting government and private computer networks. the hackers aim to compromise key hardware like routers and fire walls that would give them virtual control of data flows allowing them to steal critical data and plant the ability to carry out cyber warfare. the attacks weren't limited to the two countries australia also accused kremlin backed hackers of targeting hundreds of companies. the the point. is that. the announcements comet
4:13 pm
a time of growing concern about russia's cyber activities last year the u.s. ordered civilian government agencies to remove kaspar ski antivirus software from their networks amid concerns the company was sharing data with the kremlin casper's denied the accusations and in february germany said russian hackers had breached key government networks the ongoing cyber assault raises new questions about russia's intentions a country the agency is described as their most capable hostile adversary in cyber space. spend happy is from still know of the unfortunate just think take for the cross-section of technology and society thank you very much for joining us tell us what this warning is all about what's the background to this do you think the u.s. and u.k. authorities figured out that allegedly the russians were penetrating a number of which was basically devices where the internet traffic flow through and
4:14 pm
had access to it for a long time and there's evidence of this they have evidence of this do you think oh they claim they have evidence they claim that there are highly confidential highly confident that there are tradition goes back to russia but we haven't seen it though that evidence nor what is the likelihood of this going back to russia. exactly highly likely i mean we've seen russian aggressions i was a number of times now only a few of it has been really pinpointed was hard evidence to the russians but considering the space and considering what's going on also in the jew political sphere it's like assure. me it doesn't sound like anything new i mean it's something that's been going on for a long time according to officials the kind of attack is not new we've seen in the snowden revelations that the u.s. was doing quite similar things for years you know the russians had to do the same thing that has been going on maybe for a year or so so it's not substantially new but what could be new is this warning of a global cyber attack what what proof is that or what inklings do you have that
4:15 pm
they could be something of that size on its way servers sometimes we're talking about this huge scale threat when there's a huge bought a lot of devices have been used or penetrated in this case but we haven't seen the world wide scale of cyber take taking down everything but you know if you want to emphasize the threat level you can always play that. doesn't it take a lot of resources and a lot of money to loan something like that and what's what's the return that you get on it what would the russians get out of something like that well it actually takes some resources but not as much as you would think because the devices that have been attacked had vulnerabilities that were known they used. the name something that's really weak security what you call it. the russians were able to read traffic that goes through the routers and they were able to money if proper encryption wasn't used but as we've seen with the snowden revelations the doctrine
4:16 pm
right for this kind of for web browsing and messages like what has been increased so they weren't able to get as much as they hoped for maybe so basically could you call this a warning to companies and states to do more to get ready to bolster their defenses and make sure what they're offering us is services is safe sure but it's not the first warning and we've seen like in germany with the i.t. security regulation that at some point you're running out of warnings and you just have to make government mandated regulations because the companies just don't want to listen what do you think needs to be done concretely i think in addition to the huge regulation that we have here in germany which only targets critical infrastructure that we have to go far beyond that and have to be working on the second i did security regulation and have is thank you very much for coming in today. beijing is promising to open its auto industry to full foreign ownership in five years something that strange ties with washington and other trading partners for years electric vehicle ownership restrictions had to
4:17 pm
be eliminated this year followed by commercial vehicles and twenty twenty m. passenger vehicles two years later the current rules require foreign automakers in china to work through joint ventures with state owned companies that forces them to share technology with potential rivals. russian officials are making further moves to block people in the country from using the popular messenger app telegram now it's one of russia's best known technology products but it has angered the government by refusing to hand over its encryption keys and that led a court last week to say telegram must be kept out of russia until it complies with such requests we have. social media to tell us more about the story so how is russia blocking this app now and is it effective i mean this is actually a big deal that is effective i mean imagine one day your favorite messaging app maybe it's what's app just goes down and you can use it anymore you can't text your family your friends this is the situation in russia ten million russians use
4:18 pm
telegram every month but now it really seems like the battle has been won by the russian government and we saw yesterday this block officially went into effect they won the court case now today russia's telecommunications watchdog it's called zoar is asking google apple to remove the out completely from its app stores and now we're even seeing more drastic measures from russia this is really interesting around eighteen million ip address as of now been blocked by russia including some that were being hosted by amazon and google and apparently these are addresses that telegram was using to get around the blogs so they're really really just playing whack a mole trying everything they can to keep telegram out of peoples and the bottom line is that many russians now have to kind of rethink how they will be communicating they can't use telegram anymore the russian government wants them all . to migrate to a chat app called i.c. q you might remember it from the one nine hundred ninety s. it's owned though by a putin loyalist so probably not as secure as telegram so how are people in russia
4:19 pm
reacting to the fact that perhaps one of their favorite messaging service is being blocked they're not happy about it we're seeing a lot of protests even on the streets in moscow yesterday russians also of course speaking out online against this ban we can start by showing you in fact telegrams founder and c.e.o. . and he said the band won't do anything to improve russia's security like the russian government claims and he still remains the finance and in fact posted this on telegram and he writes hey look privacy is not for sale and human rights should not be compromised out of fear or out of greed the russian opposition leader lexing of all news also speaking out against the ban and he went to twitter and he says while trying to block a telegram these idiots from zoar are blocking whole chunks of the internet we mention those ip addresses they're blocking businesses bringing harm in discomforts users and they have to be prosecuted for that this is an abuse of power in our beautiful future russia we will punish those jerks he says russians also taking this with a bit of a sense of humor as well and i really like this comparison here to
4:20 pm
a star wars battle you see there with his telegram at dodging the storm troopers of the russian telecom agency and you see those other companies kind of getting caught in the crossfire they're going down with the with the in the fire and one more year implying that russia has essentially heading backwards when it comes to technology you see the head of russia's telecommunications watchdog and the tweet says we have the most modern means of communication and circling in the background those soviet era telephones on his desk so some sense of humor there as well in russia overall though a lot of concern about this russia has been tightening restrictions on the internet why telegram why is this a target for the russians this is really an app that has has build itself is making you untractable that the christian is is so secure that no one can follow you and no one. crack what you're trying to say or what message you're sending but look it's also become the go to app now for allegedly terrorists and russia isn't the only government that has concerns about this in fact germany and france have also
4:21 pm
spoken out against telegram particularly after we saw those so-called islamic state terrorist incidents in paris and here in berlin and apparently the terrorists were using this app to communicate and to recruit other terrorists so this is really a larger battle it's not just russia many governments are concerned about encryption and these these encrypted apps they want to be able to access it in as they say to fight terrorism privacy advocates say hang on we need privacy we can't have governments in our encrypted app so it's a bigger battle than just russia will have to see if their efforts to block telegram do end up working there now from good of you social media thank you very much for joining us. now alexander gas is preparing for his next trip to the international space station in june i guess is heading to the ice us with the u.s. astronaut and a russian cosmonaut he'll be the first german commander of the station and he'll be accompanied by a rather unusual robot. this was the view of earth from space that
4:22 pm
greeted guest on his last mission four years ago he's about to embark on his second trip to the international space station or. it's a bit like coming home i spend a year of my life out there and have very nice memories that i would be happy to relive this if it was it. on his new mission called horizons gets to be the first german commander of the i assess chancellor of america calls him the german ambassador to space guest uses the nickname astro alex on his last mission he conducted over one hundred scientific experiments and a space walk which is one of the greatest challenges for an astronaut. bicycle is mistaken with his friends and you know there's risk involved certainly a bit more than taking a train not just flying for fun doing research for the greater good of humanity and
4:23 pm
for that i'm willing to take a slightly higher risk for me. being. one of the experiments guest and his colleagues will conduct involves a so-called flying brain a robot with artificial intelligence and a measure of humor. m r two d two just kidding my name is simon and i will support you. on this parabolic flight the robot is being tested in zero gravity as the first fully automatic robot with artificial intelligence simon is unique. the robot will support alexander guest on his space mission by fulfilling routine tasks such as documenting experiments. the first subject of those experiments will be the robot itself life is ten percent what happens to you and ninety percent how you
4:24 pm
react to it. that turns out to be a useful model for gast as he prepares for weightlessness in space. well i think as an astronaut if you fly to space you always have a lot of projects here and there and and you never have the time to finish them so i'm looking forward to maybe catching even more photos over sketching even more moments in weightlessness doing more science and friend bring it back to earth for the benefit of us all. alexander guest will have just turned forty two when he takes off so he'll have plenty to celebrate in space. and d.-w. civic our valley is attending aleksandr guests last press conference before going on his mission high figure how are the preparations going either. preparations are fantastic i mean alexander gus couldn't put it plainly himself he said i'm going to use the the the not rude version it just got real he's finished his training in
4:25 pm
houston he's back here in cologne at the european astronaut center for a week he's getting to know some of the instrumentation you just heard about simon there the artificial intelligence he's learning how that works he's been told how the columbus lab is all prepared for his mission the horizons mission and he's just been speaking behind here in the presence of some very great astral to if you can see him over here so it's all on so artificial intelligence simon as you mentioned is going to be one really interesting aspect of this mission what else is on the agenda well there is so much on i'm going to start with addicts first of all one of the experiments is my oh my old sones is basically going to look at how microgravity affects the muscular system of this really important because we shoot things up into space all the time that we really don't know how space affects humans in space think about all the colonies we want to build we don't know how space is going to affect us if we procreate there's no not much experimentation going into evolutionary biology so that's going to be really important it's also
4:26 pm
icarus it's a an experiment that's going to track birds with a little sensors in the eye assess will still pop their data as they fly past the i assess and that will perhaps allow scientists to track things like avian influenza and even need both there's so much though on the on the school things that people scientists can do on earth where they can do a micro gravity's fascinating stuff so a lot on the agenda for them in alexander garrett is going to be the first german commander of the i assess how important is that for germany. well you know this is a hugely important germany is one of the largest contributors to the european space agency it's got the d.l.r. here this mission the horizons mission is going to be controlled partly in germany but also via houston and moscow this is just a really big deal for germany but you know i was on i guess for an astronaut he couldn't be more on the ground you know have his feet on the ground because he did make the point that it's not only about the astronaut going to space it is about all the teams all the scientists all the universities in europe that are involved
4:27 pm
in this what three hundred experiments that are going to take place on the i assess and of course this is a his mission this arises mission is just one of many that are ongoing missions so you know it is important for germany but it's also important for europe and sorry there i say be so naive for the world that's all come together hey in space already exciting is that there's i think i thank you very much for reporting for us there. you're watching d.w. news still to come on the program in football bundesliga champs byron munich are aiming to take another step towards winning the trouble when they face the live of course in the german cup semifinals tonight we take a look ahead at the big match. a new photo exhibition here in germany looks at black power and the flower power fifty years off we'll get a sneak peek. and don't forget you can always get to the news on the go down letter out from google play or from the op store that will give you access

4:29 pm
here in germany chancellor i'm going to. see is still controversial her new coalition government has pledged to focus on security and to speed up the deportation of rejected asylum applicants but many of those are now seeking shelter in german churches and hundreds of parishes grant what they call church asylum d.w. met a syrian student who's received a deportation order but fled into. a protestant church. this church in cologne is protecting use keeney from deportation. the syrian student must leave germany because she came to europe via italy. german law requires her to apply for asylum in italy user is on the deportation list i hear that's all people that's to go back to italy the streets so if my family leave here i don't have a right to live with them. the twenty four year old asylum application has already
4:30 pm
been rejected twice but this lutheran church and its pastor are giving her temporary protection. for now she can be near her father and brother who have been granted asylum here in germany. the family was torn apart by war her mother and youngest brother are still in syria waiting for visas to germany. she keeps her family together virtually with a collage she made on her mobile phone. and this is it it makes me so angry it's inhumane but stage four floors the rightful place itself a human rights in this fashion why can't people break the family to reunite. the church protects you sir but the asylum offered by the church is not official legal protection so far the state tolerates this the police doesn't raid christian places
4:31 pm
or prayer right now about six hundred refugees are being harbored by german churches officials have a problem with this. stuff the church asylum can only be allowed to exist in exceptional cases if clever lawyers misuse of your original agreement and apply church so i don't extend the refugee stay until deadlines expire and we cannot accept that there can be him for political reasons you says father left syria three years ago he doesn't want to talk about this as long as his family still is in danger the situation in syria is safe i mean. changing from minute to minute. there's no. i left syria.
4:32 pm
when she lived in syria use or had an active life she worked with the humans have projects for war damaged children and was writing her bachelor's thesis on restoration of war torn palmira now she's stuck waiting in germany for an undetermined time period. so i hope that's. who. love her and her brother soon and that's who is going better as i see him. use your dreams of completing her master's degree in architecture in germany one day she wants to return to syria and help rebuild it after the war is finally over. right emma come back to bed now with an update on germany's ambitious green energy plan and an update on the billing because it costs a pretty huge we're talking about a trillion euros the cost of germany's ambitious plans to switch to bring new
4:33 pm
energy over the next seven years it's a balancing act lynn wants to phase out nuclear at the same time reduce carbon dioxide emissions but so far booth has brought no significant reduction in c o two is something officials are bringing over at the berlin energy transition dialogue today and tomorrow here in belgium. set its sights on reducing c o two emissions as fast as possible it plans to lower the use of fossil fuels like coal at the same time pivoting towards more renewable energy sources. it's declared aim is to become the first major economic bloc to reduce c o two emissions by thirty five percent by twenty thirty. at the same time the proportion of renewable energies will be produced to thirty five percent of energy needs the plans are expensive they are expected to cost germany alone five hundred twenty billion euros by twenty twenty five. their average is zero to twenty euro as
4:34 pm
a month per capita for germany whereby most of the bills from four hundred billion euros repaid to renewable energy producers are through for other costs of the transition from our outweigh the benefits to just sort of institute for competition economics says germany is still pumping out as much c o two as it was ten years ago meaning that the shift towards renewables here hasn't prevented one single turn of c o two from being released into the atmosphere. but it's book is head of the e.u. energy policy at the think tank gore has germany basically bitten off more than it can shoot. when determining to phase out nuclear and i don't believe so the history of the german attitude system has been driven by citizens movement that was built on the need to face those new people to face up to wasn't just chancellor merkel grandstanding but rather listening to the people reacting to what absolutely
4:35 pm
is what absolutely this is what germans want is a very broad cross party support for the phase out of nuclear what we must tackle and this was mentioned in your reporting is we need to tackle the issue of emissions from the coal fleet in germany is it something the germans can afford absolutely absolutely we have been building up a very strong renewable industry renewable energy particularly the power sector of germany the next big challenge now is to phase out cold have a clear pathway out of using coal for power production in germany this is something we can afford at the moment most of the surplus electricity we're exporting beyond germany is actually from the coal when are we going to see the c o two emissions reduced i believe very soon as soon as there is a clear agreement in the coal commission that is one of the main deliverables of this income. government and they will need to set an end date for the use of coal
4:36 pm
in germany they will need to chart a clear pathway out of coal the one of the big challenges of course like in other countries is how do you cope with the regional challenge the workers that are currently having living in the families later to the workers that are living of the coal mining you sound like an optimist so you obviously see this more as is that a new opportunity for the energy sector rather than a step back. i mean if it's part of the transition now the transition really rebuilding our system still running full speed because. so it's part of the transition the transition means things have to be moved up. we have been very successful in very cost effective in increasing the. now we need to take a piece of coal still sits in the system to see or to process that comes from processes. that's why we need to do it by regulating the system as you spoke thank
4:37 pm
you very much for coming in today thanks so much. to a city now of extreme wealth and extreme poverty peru's capital lima the contrast is particularly striking if you visit pamplona shanty town just a stone's throw from one of the proving capitals most affluent districts the two areas are divided by what some locals call the wall of shame. the air here is heavy with dust most of the people living in these shocks have no access to electricity and running. on the other side of the mountain i well to do neighborhoods with sports facilities. two world separated by a ten kilometer long wall made of concrete topped with barbed wire. on the side. a situation on the outskirts of the peruvian capital lima
4:38 pm
the population is increasing rapidly as more people arrive from the countryside to try their luck in the big fish he. lives here for seventeen years during that time both the wall and the contrast between the two sides have god. it makes people aggressive this kind of situation shouldn't exist today. it's a form of discrimination a form of that he's getting mean all other people might see it differently. but for me it's a clear separation of the poor on one side and the rich on the other. and sarah runs an isa re in her neighborhood she offers good food at a good price something her customers appreciate. the forty nine year old earns just enough to get by she serves meals from early morning to evening during the day she takes time out to go shopping and sometimes even goes home for
4:39 pm
a short rest. she lives alone now she says her ex-husband was violent. rapid population growth coupled with poor quality housing and lack of services have led to many problems. then made here are a lot of health risks where we live there animal feces everywhere which raises the risk of infection. there's plenty of filth and smarm here. and our neighborhood is located in a valley the air is always smoky from the garbage being burnt to any wall or a net but this this lots of children have asthma breathing problems and i just of issues and there's never enough water. on this side of the wall the stench of burning garbage is ever present. on the other side there's
4:40 pm
a different kind of fire lifts the veil of fire places provide warmth and comfort us here in the suburb of los cuz you are an ass life is good for many of those on the rich side the wall provides peace of mind. we're almost universal yet and now we're even if it's my work that makes me successful which is. i believe everyone who seeks success should find it we have to work together and give each other opportunities. in my opinion the wall provides protection but the door is always open so that we can be together it was. several years ago he hired victor who lives on the other side of the wall as home help victor has come to terms but the divide. up with your sweetie. i'm one of the poor people. in the village and that's where i was dying. but
4:41 pm
there's no reason not to be friends with people on the other side. it's not about exclusion. i wouldn't call it a wall of shame like other people do. people only want to hurt others. he said. ten kilometers of barbed wire designed to keep undesirables. city officials agreed to the walls construction at the request of wealthy residents who hoped that it would keep crime action of their area. sebastien says the bad boosting security not promoting discrimination. and over the years was rumors that mountain thieves were entering the neighborhood. but they weren't residents of the poor neighborhood. robbery or my many who live there work here with us and we get along fine and i got and guess what he but there was some people who tried to come over to us through the slum in order to steal resources and it's
4:42 pm
been snowing it was a catalyst for the construction of the war is over modi's it was built for more security for cities jocosely and would of course it would yes. but for sorrow of the wall symbolizes in justice. a barrier separating peruvians from each other. it's a form of confinement she'll never accept. yesterdays that but it's sad if you can see two different kinds of lives that have been deliberately separated. from up here you can see two different worlds. if the lives of the rich and the lives of the poor. young. it's very sad that there's a wall like this. made of cement built to separate people.
4:43 pm
main. growing divide between rich and poor coupled with increasing fears over security. the old separation two neighborhoods in is a concrete example both. an intense week of german football is underway especially for a bundesliga champs fire in munich there are german cup semifinal slated for tonight and matt herman is here from day to tell us more about it but matt before we talk about that match let's talk about what happened last night there was some controversy in the bundesliga match between minds and freiburg what happened right is three letters that seem to give people really riled a video assistant referee system upsetting people confusing people right in the midst of these two teams crucial relegation battle. mines had the lion's
4:44 pm
share of chances in the first half and threatened again here just before the break daniel brzezinski shot saved by alexander off the referee though decided to check the video replay for handball because the whistle had blown fribourg had already left the pitch and sure enough camp had handled the ball on its way to the keeper penalty pablo de blas he stepped up to the spot and hammered the ball then one nil for mines the first time in bowen just look at history that a goal was scored after the half time whistle and minds weren't down yet in the seventy eighth minute shrugged off tried to clear the ball but it was intercepted by robin crays on who laid it on to this to make it to nil with the help of the post a brace for de blas and that's how it ended two nil for minds to grab three huge points in the battle to beat the drum. map that's really all
4:45 pm
i mean is the a are really a good fit yeah i mean this highlights really two problems which have plagued v.a.r. all season the first season being fully implemented the speed of its implementation and the clarity of its implementation first of all is the first time that anyone has scored a goal after the half time whistle has been blown it's just the way things went but you don't think the referee in charge was just late in telling the freiburg players emphatically enough not to leave the pitch some of them are a bit of a little gamesmanship there you don't exactly want to stick around and let a decision go against you and the folks who are watching the replay in the video booth in cologne really need to get their decisions done faster i mean they should be able to get john in a minute maybe even thirty seconds because. the video replay system is meant to be overturning are clearly obvious wrong calls like this one it's clearly on him so if they can get things done faster that would help a lot second of all the fans watching at home on t.v. and because the. doesn't get on the p.a.
4:46 pm
and explain explain what's going on and they don't show the replay on the big screen this is another thing that football's always been afraid to show fans you know replays that they think might rile them up and that's kind of an immature attitude i think ok so the drama last night could be more drama tonight what's going on tonight's match up well by our munich are sort of on the march toward what they hope will be a trouble winning season but they have to face basically informed team in the bundesliga a team that has knocked off two very good teams for one in both instances over the last two weeks in so let's find out about them. with the bundesliga title sealed in april seventh by in a doing a lot more than just staying alive. they rested players in saturday's league game with much she got back but still triumphed five one now they have laid in their sights with triple talk sweeping the club. we have. shown is from
4:47 pm
your pov because we relax so we we are very focused you know goals we have many many players that can play. every game so we have equal to with that. sort of a dallas still injured but jerome bowen saying is expected to return against the late the kids inside who have won their last two bundesliga matches for whom they both have the ray of attacking talent and could trouble buy on given it's a one leg semifinal and they are at home i lead the cusins forward line is so stacked that stephan kissling hardly gets a game these days but he told the w. he is desperate to face by and before he's expected retirement in may. sure it's a semifinal against biron of all teams but we've beaten them in the german cup in the past and only lost on penalties to them a few seasons ago in the cup you write your own history and we have the tools to make our own bit of history and. but that is exactly
4:48 pm
what by and coach you pint is once he's also retiring and the weight of a lay the q.'s mo keep him and buy on on course for a second travel in five years. i met a lot riding on tonight just briefly do you think parents can get the travel well i've said a couple of times on this program i think that they will win the champions league but i actually don't think they're going to win the german coxing going to lose tonight i think it's a tight game a high scoring game and one that leverkusen well find something to look forward to their match herman from t.v. sports thanks very much. now two thousand and eighteen marks of fifty years since one thousand nine hundred sixty eight a turbulent year that was marked by waves of protests and social movements across europe and the u.s. the anniversary is cause for a number of special exhibitions one of which is on in cologne at the city's museum of black power flower power features photographs by the american photographer pair
4:49 pm
marian and joan. the black panther party was formed as a response to the brutal suppression of riots in black inner city neighborhoods the new movement supported the use of violence for self-defense members posed in black berrys jackets and with guns in their hands the message we are not victims for u.s. law enforcement agency f.b.i. they were the greatest threat to the internal security of the country and to be hunted down the photo exhibition at the museum in cologne is a sympathetic portrait of the movement the intimate photos at the vulnerabilities and insecurities behind the facade and of the dreams and hopes of the people who got involved. photographers roof and purple jones lived in the bay area of san francisco in the one nine hundred sixty s. and were first hand witnesses of historic events with protests organized by the
4:50 pm
black panther party to demand the release of founding member huey p. newton newton's manslaughter conviction in connection with the fatal shooting of a policeman was eventually overturned. very socially aware. and as a child jones had witnessed racism and even in the southern state of louisiana. on him so they were very family on the side of the black panthers. the flower power movement was also blooming right on the doorstep the true photographers were fascinated by the radical new lifestyles of the hippies in the haight ashbury district the photographer captured the symbolism of the time. the exhibition continues. and we have our culture at.
4:51 pm
karen how is that to tell us more about this how you care and black power flower power how these go together well it's true that as the title suggests they really are trying to pack in a lot i think with the idea of showing how these two contrasting movements were the basis for counter cultures that are still very much alive today so one hundred sixty eight as you know so demonstrations and protests all across the escalate really worldwide that this is this exhibition focuses very much on the events in the u.s. or outrage over what was going on in vietnam and the civil rights movement really heating up obviously with the black panther party. it was really the driving. force behind this essay and it's really a priceless documentary can very much see her social commitment in those shots in one nine hundred sixty it was such a loaded year wasn't this anniversary you know as we have a lot of things that we're remembering we just had the fiftieth anniversary of the assassination of civil rights activist martin luther king turning point in american
4:52 pm
history may nine hundred sixty eight in france is still coming up that's when obviously student protests and strikes basically brought the country to a standstill here in germany there was the attempted assassination of. the student leader prague spring erupted in czechoslovakia and was just brutally quelled by the soviets and young people everywhere were really you know. reacting to oppression and what they consider to. dusty structures and television very much contributed to that momentum you have on the one hand these really violent struggles and on the other hand the flower power generation yeah an interesting contrast because that hippie movement of course started as a counter cultural movement itself but it was really embraced by the mainstream pretty much immediately and of course found its expression had a huge influence on music and pop art. the fact that cologne exhibition has been a complete playlist with a lot of hits by the greats jimi hendrix the water prophet scott herren bob dylan
4:53 pm
and so forth and those ideas of social protest. stunning and sexual revolution and to emancipate. of the democratic establishment found their expression in art across the globe and obviously things like hair here this one hundred sixty seven musical that founded a totally new genre the rock music became a hugely successful and it's interesting when i look at it from the perspective of today it's there it's almost more daring and progressive than a lot of of the work that we're actually seeing today so yeah so i mean there's a lot of reflections and i mean the pictures of the black power movement obviously also in that exhibition look like they could have been taken just a couple years ago or just as recently as ferguson happens every time like to go see in the living museum in cologne care in our culture to us thanks very much for bringing us that story. before we go we have some pretty stunning images for you nasa has just released a stunning virtual tour of the moon an eye popping forté resolution to see some of
