8:04 am
doing that i did save other people but i don't want people to think that i was. the terminator or superman or anybody like that to just it was just i figured if i was going to die he was going to have to work for more such reluctant heroes may be needed before police crimes are going on. while belgian court is set to deliver a verdict in the trial of solid also long he's the sole surviving suspect in the twenty fifteen paris terror attack that left one hundred twenty nine people dead and scores were good he's being tried over a separate incident a police shootout in brussels all that was on the run. the end of an international manhunt. on march eighteenth two thousand and sixteen belgian special police captured one of the most wanted terror suspects in europe. sunday abdus a mom believed to be the only surviving suspect in the paris terrorist attacks that
8:05 am
left one hundred thirty people dead in november of two thousand and fifteen. sally dislodge a french citizen born in brussels in september one thousand nine hundred eighty nine one of the main questions at his trial was whether he played a major role in planning and executing the attacks or was he merely a low level follower. was arrested after four months on the run the charges against him are related to a shootout with the belgian police senses arrest he has said nothing his lawyer it's been mary describes him as a small time criminal who's too stupid to plan a conspiracy in one interview mary said i just love has quote the intelligence of an empty ashtray. just loves family has also tried to reinforce this line of defense one of his brothers for instance says the slum lost his nerve and intentionally failed to set off the suicide vest he was wearing their terror experts say it's all part of a deliberate defense strategy that. observers expect salaams lawyers
8:06 am
to do everything possible to cultivate the idea that he was a small fish the success of this strategy could influence his trial in the paris terrorist attacks. to be corresponding teri schultz is following this trial for us attorney can you tell us more about the suspect up apparently like so many islamists who engage in these kind of attacks he had a a long history as a petty christe a criminal. that's right but quite a petty criminal compared to what he would do later and his older brother as well together with the with the seller of the slum they owned a nightclub in downtown brussels which was known for drug dealing and in fact there was some video which emerged after the incidents in paris which showed saleh his older brother brahim who blew himself up. partying drinking dancing with blonde women in
8:07 am
a nightclub so he was not considered by any means an idiot log of islam before he was caught up in a cell so that's what we know about him from before the attacks he has shown himself since though to have become more of. an islamist as we heard at his trial the only words he said where is was that he was going to put his faith in all his hands so certainly a big change from what people called a pot smoking delinquent to someone who committed these crimes in the name of isis terry how does this relate to the perestroika. this is this trial is not specifically linked to the incidents in paris but a shootout with police that happened several days before of this long was finally apprehended here in brussels some police who were simply doing house check on a suspicious address knocked on the door in fact not expecting anyone to be present
8:08 am
and they were met by gunfire by heavy weaponry and inside were three men including some of the slum and his codefendant here today sophia and i ari and another man who was killed by police in that shootout now when police finally entered that home . and obviously had escaped the third man was dead they're found with with a store of kalashnikovs a lot of ammunition and. paraphernalia related to two islamic state so that's when they knew they were on the right track and his d.n.a. along with ira's was later found in the house and cell of islam was finally apprehended several days later in will and back ok terry when can we expect a verdict in that courthouse behind you. a verdict will begin being read at eight forty five and because they've had plenty of time since the trial started in february we would expect it to go quite quickly the maximum sentence requested here by prosecutors is twenty years so we'll see if that is in
8:09 am
fact what they get terry szell's for us this morning thanks very much for that for now turning and we'll see how the brussel suburb of mall back is trying to shake his reputation as being close to john haas capital of europe that's coming up later in this program now to some of the other stories making the news this hour south korea has switched off the loud speakers and uses the blair proper down across the border to the north now this move comes ahead of the personal interest in a decade abroad broadcasts include a mixture of news south korean pop music and criticism of the north korean regime. french president among all mccraw is headed to washington today for a state visit in the u.s. with all his told fox news that he'll use the trip to urge president trump not to pull out of the iran nuclear deal. treaty threatened to abandon that deal which is aimed at curbing iran's nuclear development and. the conservative mario abdo
8:10 am
benito's has won paraguay's presidential election a candidate from the ruling colorado party took about forty seven percent of the vote in a narrow victory over his closest rival and it has as promised to promote investment and tackle corruption in the major soil producing a calm. in place of arrested over two hundred demonstrators in armenia during rallies against the country's government authorities also detained three prominent opposition politicians including nicole. now he has been leading the anti-government demonstrations in the capital here of all the protests have been ongoing for a week now demonstrators are calling on the newly appointed prime minister says. to resign with critics accusing him of making a questionable power grab and failing to address issues linked to corruption and the economy as c.e.o. of peaceful protesters in the center of yet it. thousands of armenians united in
8:11 am
anger at the end of a tense day of demonstrations. earlier on sunday the situation was far more turbulent. political deadlock opposition leader nikos pushing me and only prepared to discuss circassians resignation. well look this isn't dialogue. these aren't talks. this is an ultimatum and blackmail. you don't have the power you've reported to have. authority and mania has come into the hands of the people . under the glare of the media their meeting lasted just several minutes prime minister circassian abruptly ended the encounter. just hours later he
8:12 am
called pushing and was detained as he led a demonstration in the armenian capital. this past week parliament in the former soviet republic of just three million people voted to allow circassian to transition from the largely ceremonial post of president which he served two terms to that of prime minister. public anger has grown at what the opposition perceives as a power grab claiming said circassian is becoming a leader for life after. the opposition has called the protests the start of a peaceful velvet revolution one they say they'll continue till their demands are met . for the very latest let's go to europe and joshua shara a journalist working there joshua walkaway expect for today where you are.
8:13 am
well i think nobody knows what we can expect exactly as the report said nichols actually i was arrested yesterday and so this is the first day that the protests will be going on without a leader who is really kind of galvanized the movement the rally last night. against a lot of expectations it was massive police people were not afraid of the police threats to shut the rally down. and so and ralliers were told last night that they should continue the kind of civil disobedience that they've been doing all along so we should expect to see that to continue today. they also called for a rally again tonight at seven pm the same place it's always been republics where. the police have sat at it the police just issued a statement saying that they will consider that rally illegal. and that they will not allow it to have been saying things like this all along so ok no one knows what
8:14 am
to expect joshua can you help us understand the background to all of this what are the demonstrators taking to the streets for. well the background is that the on who's been president for ten years is deeply unpopular and people have been somewhat resigned to that but then what really kind of made people angry was three years ago the government had a referendum to change the constitution to from a presidential system to a prime ministerial systems or a parliamentary system so now the prime minister is the most powerful figure and so . when they had that referendum said no i'm not going to you know switch and become prime minister in this new system. everyone kind of still expected that that's what was going to happen but they weren't one hundred percent sure until a couple of weeks ago and he said yes in fact that's what i'm going to do and then
8:15 am
was appointed a couple of weeks ago and so that really sets. briefly if you could you know the government looks like it's not willing to negotiate so what happens next i mean nobody knows and they could possibly replace. with a less unpopular figure like the previous prime minister. and continue their rule that the same party continue their rule but that could be a concession that. people were just one more and more so at this point nobody knows . that thanks so much for that from europe on this one. this is the interview news live from berlin still to come on the show a new era for germany's social democrats as the party likes the first female leader in its one hundred fifty five year history but does untrained alephs have what it takes to save them. all european union and mexico are looking to
8:16 am
strengthen their economic ties that's right bryan multilateral cooperation can be an added value for all that's german chancellor angela merkel welcoming an overhaul of the trade deal between the european union and mexico abolishing almost all tariffs between both sides now meanwhile mexico's president and take opinion yet though says he is optimistic that a renegotiation of the north american free trade agreement could also be reached the meter's gave their comments at the opening of the hanover fair the world's biggest showcase of industrial technology speed is the message at hand over customers want their products delivered faster and they want to be able to customize them that means speeding up production and logistics it's a challenge with global reach the fare is therefore considered one of germany's most important annual events underlined by the attendance of german chancellor angela merkel she was joined by mexican president enrique pena nieto whose country
8:17 am
is the partner nation for this year's fair the other moment and is it going to the tough to sit what's your one germany is doing very well economically at the moment your employment rate is as low as ever. but i recognize that today's numbers aren't tomorrow's prognosis and therefore it's important that we strengthen our innovative skills the service essentially didn't that's the only ones we're in about to once teach cut it off at the can and hand over that innovation translates to automation and machine learning often in the form of robots both require a very fast network that can handle massive data loads in real time. building that network known as five g. is another focus at hanover. growing automation means the line between software and hardware is blurring take german software giant s a p they've long written programs to drive business logistics now they're writing software to drive and maintain the actual robots in the warehouse we can connect to essence you can connect to
8:18 am
everything actually right so we get the information from the thing to think and tell it tell us how it fits how it is so the machine for example can tell us well i might need maintenance navigating the shifting landscape is urgent for businesses around the world but especially those in germany small and mid-sized manufacturers are key to the country's export economy a frequent concern here is that they're not adapting quickly enough another is that more automation means fewer jobs mexico has its own concerns its industrial economy is under threat with questions hanging over the north american free trade agreement now it needs to diversify it hopes hanover will be a good first step. for more from the hand over fair let's cross over to c. and bears leo stephen we heard the german chancellor and the mexican president welcoming the overhaul of the trade deal between mexico and the e.u. give us some more about. that's right this of course was meant to be an update
8:19 am
to an agreement that went back twenty one years ago that was focused mostly on industrial goods what the update to does is add agricultural products dairy products for example farm goods chickens pork you name it that of course is important it also allows companies from both nations to bid on government contracts without tariff without penalty all important but behind this is also a very big political statement at a time when both mexico and germany are under fire from the u.s. for running trade surpluses with them this is a statement about the value of free trade now of course mexico needs more than a free trade agreement with the e.u. to make up for its trade with the u.s. its biggest trade partner so we'll see what happens ahead and stephen the hanover fair is showcasing the latest in industrial technology and the german chancellor says german companies have quite some catching up to do when it comes to artificial intelligence intelligence tell us why. that's right i mean this is
8:20 am
widely seen both from an academic perspective receive papers on germany lagging behind and also from polls of businesses is the executive say the same thing one of the reasons for this is that germany's economy has been structurally set up as a manufacturing economy it has little incentive or had little incentive in the past to really push forward on issues such as to digitalisation schools for example big research centers that you might see in the u.s. tied in with industry they're really unconnected here and you are seeing an effort to move in the other direction you are seeing for example that artificial intelligence was a big topic in the coalition agreement that now is behind the current government but in that case that mostly spoke to regulating the environment and creating rules around artificial intelligence so we'll see what happens in terms of actually fostering the development of artificial intelligence and steven as this trade show is kicking off is there any technological feature that has caught your particular attention. well we actually took
8:21 am
a tour yesterday of some of the exhibitors and one of the things that i found most interesting was the stuff that kooka now kuka is a very large robotics firm had it start years years years ago and it's often seen in a lot of production floors as having as big robotic orange arms that make cars what we saw was a much smaller arm it's known as a sensitive robot and it was placing batteries inside laptops this is meant to be easy to use easy to set up outside of the box and very easy to operate for someone who doesn't have programming skills the goal here is to get into these smaller and midsized german businesses that still haven't really invested heavily in robotics they didn't tell us how much it cost but they said that is it is accessible for a smaller market that isn't yet exploring robots sensitive robots sounds good steve murphy reporting from the head of affairs steve thank you so much and now for the latest on an industry which reminds us how important it can be to stop and smell
8:22 am
the flowers thousands of visitors flocked to the kugan hall flower park and the netherlands this weekend for the annual flower show that lasts only for a few weeks now romantic spring gardens feature over five hundred varieties of tulips tracting flower aficionados from all over the world to tips on an important export for the neverland's and production as a record high pushing two billions to tips i knew. expect a rhino and a historic moment in german politics yesterday hopes it's going to be a rosy future kristoff on america's coalition partners a center left social democrats have elected a woman as their leader for the first time in their one hundred fifty five year history underway in all us one sixty six percent of the vote of a party conference on sunday now she has her work cut out for her yesterday suffered its worst ever election result last september. down the border under the
8:23 am
un model and they are now loose has become the new chairwoman of the s.p.d. with a total of sixty six point three percent of floods put said. with she was likely hoping for a better result on today and al is gonna just two thirds of the vote the second worst result for any incoming s.p.d. leader since world war two. but the outcome is nevertheless a milestone for women in the s.p.d. hoping to reach the party's highest rank. our own can and yet many people know the glass ceiling that women are always faced with today at this party conference we've broken the glass ceiling within the s.p.d. party and it will stay this way ladies and gentlemen on live from leave again or say no and go north. not only says she wants to reinvent the party she's promising to encourage more firmly on the principles of social solidarity but many
8:24 am
within the party say only brand new leaders can assure in dramatic change with some looking to not as challenger simona long as the marrow flensburg mostly unknown until now at the national level one roughly one third of the vote. it's been oh i don't know you today aren't you i am your turn to tell you how do you know for real change within the s.p.d. that way we the s.p.d. can become winners again not just in germany but also in europe. that cold appeared to resonate with many s.p.d. members the party is politically weak and so is under ten dollars with limited political capital to work with someone trying to flee reforming and leading her party will be no easy task. it is a very big job let's bring in on your color our political correspondent for more on this i'm very knowledge now leads an s.t.d. on the other plunged to in historic low of twenty point five percent in the last elections is she the party's last hope to return to the glory days of double that
8:25 am
kind of support not that long ago. well the party room and get that many more chances for a new start for a restart. as you remember brian it's been only just over a year that the party voted for my. party leader with a load of one hundred percent and last year's hero has been sidelined there has been quite some erosion off personnel within the leadership of the s.p.d. . and they are not us she is a fighter she's a veteran in german politics this part of forty seven years she's a smart strategist so if somebody can we revitalize this this polity it might well be under our knowledge ok revitalizing means building back up to support that the
8:26 am
parties last well being the first woman to head the party in its one hundred fifty five year history make a difference for disaffected party members and undecided voters. only recently a german newspaper called under the i'm not the only real guy within the social democrats but yes brian i think it does make a difference to have to have a woman as party leader this finally makes the s.p.d. more modern and makes the s.p.d. more credible the promise for women to build a career in this s.p.d. and to influence german politics it's not only a mere promise with now. as a leader and she said yesterday herself this glass ceiling woman experience this will be broken and it will stay open ok now a big chunk of the party though apparently doesn't feel that way only two thirds of
8:27 am
members voted for knowledge what does that say about the divisions inside the social democrats. i think it hasn't been a result only four and they are now less but for the whole of the party leadership . it is meant as a warning don't mess around with the party base listen to us and they are not us now has to to to. rest within the party she has to bridge the gap between those who support the s.p.d. being part of the grand coalition and those who oppose it so it is a real difficult task to revitalize the s.p.d. and they have knowledge knows that she has a rocky path i had a posse cond go with that have parties backing on you thanks very much for that on your troll or political correspondent. this is the news live from berlin still to come on the show sharing a postcode with islamists we'll see how brussels suburb of small and back is trying

8:31 am
a police shootout in brussels ahead of his arrest there four months later prosecutors are seeking a twenty year prison sentence for attempted murder. while the aftermath of the attacks in france and belgium in two thousand and fifteen focused the world's attention on the molen back district in brussels that's where bell salaam was arrested the attackers suspected mastermind and guy. i there a bell. and three other attackers grew up there the other neighborhood on the western edge of brussels quickly gained a reputation as a hub of islamic radicalization and some even call them old back just for the harvest capital of europe now it's a reputation that many people who live there are desperately trying to shake. these aren't ferrari cylinders that suit his repairing but that's exactly what he wants to do on day ever since he was a child he's dreamed of becoming
8:32 am
a mechanic. i love everything to do with mechanics the twenty nine year old will finish his training in a few months and he'll have to find a job soon ffion feels ready but he's concerned about his background. and i admit that i would say i'm from my applications i know what people would think that i'm from tenney not. all of the chinese hair or doing a one year apprenticeship many of them a school dropout so have been unemployed and now want to learn a trade this is the bone piece and a social project that teaches young adults one hundred on profession it's in the heart of moral and back. the neighborhood to struggled with a bad reputation since the attacks in france and belgium. its young confident residents want things to return to normal this is a place that invests in its young people josh clearly is the project leader as well
8:33 am
as a social worker and hospital director he explains that his trainees learn to become mechanics bricklayers which have a trait they choose it will help them get employment and become independent. is angry that people look down on his boys just because of their postcode. when we get it. i don't care where my mechanics from as long as he's enthusiastic and does a good job. whether he's belgian rock'n or a tommy in. the county is a mechanic. group has even won national trade competitions that makes them proud but they all wish they didn't always have to prove themselves just because they're from orland back. ok let's talk about more i'm back with our brussels correspondent teri schultz terry the focus is back on this neighborhood because of the trial related to the paris terror attacks where you are there in
8:34 am
brussels what are people more back saying about the trial that's right the people of color back are focused on this trial not just because one of their own is inside but also what it will mean for them they feel very stigmatized by the reputation that mall and back god being called the hottest capital the hottest hot bed and they very much would like this reputation to go away as you heard in that piece it's not fair to say that about mel and beck yes it's a district with a lot of high unemployment very high immigrant background but certainly it wants the same opportunities as any other part of brussels and there have been a lot of initiatives taken since the attacks since this negative spotlight was put on the district to change that reputation so i think that the people of moore back would very much like this in this episode where they were known throughout throughout the world to end ok you mentioned some civic initiatives to turn around
8:35 am
moline back are they working. it's too early to say and i think in fact until until these trials are over not just this one here in brussels but the very big trial that will take place in paris i think you will still continue hearing molen back used in a negative connotation but there's a new mayor in town who very much wants to turn the place around and in fact the entire country would like to turn their reputation around but that will come through through long term initiatives like improving the unemployment situation improving the the the true divide that is there between native born belgians and immigrants of mostly moroccan background and certainly the reputation of up to slum and the entire cell that was housed there i mean let's not forget that it certainly will make that a difficult path ok it's not just the paris terror attacks though belgium a small country sends
8:36 am
a record number of the hottest to syria for example what is behind the radicalization that's right taking place in belgium. that's right and in fact many of those so-called foreign fighters did not come from the and that they came from other dutch speaking districts you know you had several on the outskirts of brussels in the other direction who sent as many foreign fighters as mullen back practically there have been a lot of measures taken by the belgian government to crack down on radicalization they passed a whole host of new laws i mean there were some that were that really did sound crazy in the aftermath for example police couldn't check on houses after nine pm there was a period overnight where they literally couldn't go in even if it radicalization activities were suspected inside so and there were very strict laws against wiretapping and others forms of intelligence collection so those have been changed by the belgian government they hope that that will crack down on the bad guys and in the process also sort of let's let up the pressure on on the good people that
8:37 am
are there are there in mole and back and the rest of brussels which doesn't want to be known as a jihadist capital teri schultz for us in brussels standing in front of the courthouse where waiting and expecting shortly now that's a verdict in the trial of long thanks very much. also to nicaragua now where president daniel ortega is scrapping plans to overhaul the country's welfare system that following days of violent protests the country descended into chaos last week as demonstrators clashed with police human rights groups say more than twenty people were killed hundreds more were injured now although president all take a has canceled the reforms some wonder whether this could be the beginning of the end or central america's longest ruling strong. the. it started with pensioners and students but soon the flames of dissent had fanned

8:43 am
that's something dr david d'arcy says he's heard all too often annoyingly clear. it's clear that this is the government's strategy to delay the process problem. communication what it communicates doesn't reflect reality on this that's a shame you get the impression that the government has different priorities than the concrete problems of the population in a population that's why dr darcy and many of his colleagues say they have no other option than to earn their living in private clinics and stead of the state run hospitals. and it's those very clinics that offer treatment that's an affordable to most to release including ellison and her son rafael. but it's like a mass a thirty one is now history and with me to make sense of what happened sonny is ed mccambridge from our sports morning and morning can you tell us what was at stake
