this is news coming to you live from berlin and the world awaits us president trump's decision on the uren nuclear deal ever ever ever in my life have i seen any transaction so incompetently negotiated deal with. these long said he plans to scrap the landmark twenty fifteen agreement to curb
8:01 am
iran's nuclear program what he decides will be revealed just hours from now we'll look at what's at stake if the u.s. pulls out also coming up. will this man become the new prime minister of armenia the ruling party blocked his bid last week but protest leader nicole passion young gets a second chance at the top job today. the war in syria has left thousands of children with a disability this ten year old girl is one of them an airstrike changed her life forever we'll see how she's coping. also in this hour hungary's prime minister viktor orban has never been more popular today he's said to be formally reelected for a third story straight term but the opposition isn't giving up we meet activists concerned about all bonds also cracking approach to government. and we'll get you geared up for a lot. for racing it may not have the glitz and glamour of formula one but it's
8:02 am
still on the cutting it. hello i'm terry martin good to have you with us u.s. president donald trump is preparing to deliver his decision on the future of the two thousand and fifteen a rare nuclear deal later today trump has repeatedly said iran hasn't conform to the agreement meant to curb iran's suspected nuclear weapons program the u.s. leader has signaled he may pull out unless european backed or backers agree to revise the deal. slamming the nuclear deal with iran has been one of donald trump's fiery asst mottos before and after taking office you know randi you know was one of the worst and most one sided transactions the united states has ever
8:03 am
entered and frankly that deal is an embarrassment to the united states and i don't think you've heard the last of it believe me on monday the u.s. president announced on twitter he was ready to deliver his verdict whether he will call for the end of the deal or push for every negotiation is not clear under to twenty fifteen agreement iran was to limit its nuclear program specifically its uranium enrichment in exchange for relief from international economic sanctions the deal struck under the obama administration united global powers as well as the u.s. china russia germany france the u.k. and the european union put their name to it. now pressure is piling up on washington to say india court isn't not here for the from the but we remain convinced that this agreement will make the world a safer place and we are afraid that failure will lead to escalations and that we
8:04 am
will retreat into the years before two thousand and thirteen something which no one is interested in doing on monday the u.k. foreign secretary boris johnson arrived in washington in the last minute diplomatic efforts to deter the u.s. administration from scrapping the deal. we think we can fix all that working with our european friends we will be tough on iran but not throw away that the the heart of the deal which is all about stopping them getting a nuclear weapon. european leaders say they're open to finding compromise but the existing framework must remain untouched but in spite of europe's promises to address tromso complains many fear the us president has made up his mind. let's bring in marcus herr he's the middle east analyst from the german institute for international security affairs good to see you again marcus after all his
8:05 am
criticism of the around nuclear deal is there any chance that donald trump will leave it intact depends on the question what do you mean by intact when the us president is required to know every four months with the foreigners complying with the with the c.e.o. way and can stop this is mention of sanctions and then sanctions will snap back but at the end of the day it's an international agreement in which the u.s. and iran only on of all of the europeans meaning the u.k. france germany as well as russia and china sold the pub of pots will remain intact the all the players have agreed to comply with the regime so far as told the united states can pull out at the moment but still remains intact in legal terms well will the agreement really mean much to marcus if the u.s. under donald trump decides to unilaterally pull out of the agreement. that's the
8:06 am
big question here because the overarching topic was to find some kind of reconsider the asian between the united states and iran and if the united states is pulling out of the room and i think the iranian regime will not comply any more and the longer with the existing regulations now the europeans have been lobbying donald trump to come up with some sort of compromise to salvage the deal keeping the u.s. on board what could the compromise look like the route would require actually three topics subtopics the so-called sunset clauses meaning whole long does the regulations of the. apply more longer than ten years or fifteen years the second question is they are running. it's own defense program or missile program the third question is the disturber those in the role of iran in the region all three important topics which are not covered by the agreement as such so that
8:07 am
would require an additional round of negotiations actually in the final agreement and the iranians have already indicated that they would be ready to negotiate anything this is a complex deal full of acronyms when we begin to talking when we begin talking about it others a lot of jargon associated with us can you break it down for us and tell remind us why this deal is so important not just for iran in the united states but for the world as a whole absolutely it's important to ways first it's one of the prime examples that it's possible to denuclearize an aspiring nuclear power that already has agreed to suspend all enrichment activities and as and by that the international atomic agency to was to to inspect all activities in iran so it's an international control regime affecting the iranian nuclear program but it has been a big implications and the big elephant in the room he is north korea because it's
8:08 am
one of the examples which can be used to to any regulations apply to mold korea which will. hear the negotiations are going to the next couple of weeks so if iran is a blueprint for north korea the end of an hour and regime will affect what north korea as well and of course mark is there are additional implications here too involving for iran there's trade at stake too for iran's place in the region and its place as a as a global economic as a regional economic power as well and markets come from the middle from the german institute for international and security affairs thank you so much for talking with you today. now the dispute over the nuclear deal with iran is just the latest chapter in the fraught history between the u.s. and iran the term nations have locked horns for decades some low points a cia backed overthrow of iran's prime minister a nine hundred fifty three and the us embassy hostage crisis after the nine hundred
8:09 am
seventy nine islamic revolution but efforts in recent years to reach a nuclear deal producing produced something of athol to go used to travel to tehran to find out what people there think of the u.s. today. down with us a it's hard for anyone passing through this busy square in tehran to miss this message it's not only here that slogans denouncing the united states are on display but this is the most famous spot. these moros has been among visitors favorite spots for sneaky selfies for decades but what's really interesting is what lies behind them it's one of the most coveted buildings in all of iran and the one place you need to see to understand the deeply rooted mistrust many iranians have in the u.s. so come on follow me inside. hidden behind this wall is what used to be the american embassy in tehran dubbed the den of espionage by the iranian government
8:10 am
it's the site where a major international hostage crisis took place today the building is a museum run by the revolutionary guards one of the guides takes me around but he doesn't want to show his face on television on display spying equipment and this bug proof room the cia used back in the one nine hundred fifty s. when the u.s. toppled iran's democratically elected prime minister mohammed most a deck something tells me iranians will never forgive the american government for. being conic to the us. and being pockets of the vista and country this is the problem for the really people. and for each and. king. not to be selective in power countries as i'm sure interventions the biggest one. hundred fifty cities. in power.
8:11 am
that feel old have problems with these interventions. to prevent another one iranian students storm this building after the islamic revolution and held the embassy staff hostage for four hundred forty four days that marked the end of the two countries friendship once and for all when the tour is over i passed posters depicting the u.s. as a great satan but i'm not allowed to film them. their views presented inside the museum extreme but how many iranians share them after all that was almost forty years ago so how much influence does all of that still have and politics public to find out let's leave this place just a few hundred meters away is what's known here as the artist park a totally different world here young iranians enjoy the trappings of the so-called
8:12 am
great satan burgers coca-cola and cigarettes their views are more balanced. and i accept that america is an advanced country and i think our country should have a closer relationship and be able to exchange ideas in the field of technology for example but one can't predict the policies of countries far in my opinion america is a country that's breaking apart piece and i think this is all happening because of mr trump. this is a view shared by more and more young iranians these days but that's not because of history rather current politics one political analyst tells me. what is making. the people who did not see the show the people who did not see the american presence and want to improve relations or questioning is doing the see the problem between iran and us and the president on right now the down with
8:13 am
usa signs don't get much attention here in toronto but if trump scraps the nuclear deal that might soon change. let's catch up on some of the other stories making headlines around the world today and israeli soldier convicted of manslaughter for shooting dead a wounded palestinian has been released early from prison. zaria was gradual to be released thursday after serving two thirds of a fourteen month sentence for the two thousand and sixteen killing of a reef in hebron he asked to be released early to attend his brother's wedding and military officials agreed to. new york state attorney general eric schneiderman has resigned after multiple women accused him of physical violence has been a vocal supporter of the me to movement against sexual harassment he says he strongly contests the allegations. and italy's president sergio.
8:14 am
has called on the country's deadlocked political parties to back a temporary neutral government more than two months after inconclusive elections matter a less said italy couldn't wait any longer for leadership the country's two largest parties both appear to have rejected the call saying early elections would be preferable. armenia's parliament is set to vote for the second time in two weeks for a new prime minister the former soviet bloc country was plunged into political crisis last month after mass protests forced long time leader. to resign protest leader nicola paasschen yob has emerged as the top candidate to lead the government. makes his second attempt today for the job he came up eight votes short last week after the ruling republican party have blocked his bid for office. i see as being at the forefront of
8:15 am
a mini is political unrest. needing mass protests across the capital yeah. even forcing the country's prime minister to resign. last week nick called christian ian was expecting to be appointed to the top job but he was blocked by the ruling party. and his supporters were furious. and devastated. one day later and apparently you turned it seemed the way he'd been cleared for him to become prime minister after all. there was a meeting of the republican party they said that in the coming elections they would support the people's candidate. i. fishing in the so-called people's candidate cooled off the demonstrations demonstrations that have
8:16 am
proved yet banned to a complete standstill. if parliament does choose him as prime minister later today he'll have to do all he can to unite this country and get it moving to get the. nichol is standing by for us in the armenian capital you're a bun joins us now nick parliament has walked. from becoming prime minister once before will it clear a path to power for him today. good morning terry well that is the expectation here the ruling republican party has said that they will guarantee him the necessary votes become acting prime minister they haven't said yet whether they'll vote as a bloc and support him or they'll just make sure he gets those crucial last few votes he needs last week and in recent days we've seen quite considerable efforts by them sort of hold their nose and make it clear that he is not someone they would
8:17 am
have preferred but that they are willing for the sake of stability to let him pass if he fails to get those crucial fifty eight votes today then we will see snap elections which also wouldn't really be in the interest of the ruling party given how much how much frustration that would cause among the public who've already twice been promised that he would become acting prime minister and you mentioned using that word acting acting prime minister does that mean that even if pasha is elected today he's likely to simply be a transitional figure. it's not an assertion of transfigured but he's he wouldn't have his own mandate so this is a question of getting more legitimacy having achieved the one thing that he says is crucial and that is reform of the electoral system an electoral system which he says currently gives big advantages to the incumbent because parties he wants to shake that up make it simpler and fairer and then hold new elections based on those
8:18 am
new rules and we're all expecting that he would then stand for election to get his own mandate the current situation will have him as acting prime minister but dependent on the ruling republicans but he won't have as a majority in parliament so they will be scope for them to put the spanner in the works as. well so how much cooperation. expect to get assuming he does get elected today how much cooperation can he expect to get from the old guard when he gets down to tackling those reforms you just described. well exactly and he will need all three each illegal each new law new attempt at reform he will need those votes that he's relying on today to pass them given that he doesn't have his a majority in parliament and so that gives them effectively a very strong instrument with which to dampen down any too radical reform that might threaten their interests having said that the alternative seems to be worse
8:19 am
for them snap elections which given the amount of. displeasure of the public that sort of last minute change of tune woods provoke that seems like having him as promised but with those certain dampness brakes on his ability to change things that would seem to be the most attractive option for the ruling party at the moment he says that he only wants that to him the real priority is changing these elite these election laws and then to hold new elections. thank you so much that connolly there in the armenian capital yerevan of course we'll be bringing you updates on that story throughout the day thanks nick. germany's economy keeps growing producing surplus tax revenue for the government the question is what to do with all that money monica isn't is another nice question terry i'd like to ask that question to myself well the good news of course is the german is flourishing economy keeps pumping money into state coffers leading
8:20 am
to much more tax revenue than previously forecast the bad news the finance ministry has warned against too high expectations for public spending well let's take a look at those numbers now an official reported to be released later today suggests that german tax revenue will grow from its current level of six hundred seventy five billion euros to nine hundred billion euros by the year twenty twenty two that is substantially more than what officials in berlin estimated last november germany's bulging coffers are impressive but they could also fuel further debate on the distribution of government funding germany's partners are likely to criticize german frugality once more on the international monetary fund has made it clear on many occasions that it wants germany to spend more on infrastructure child care refugee integration as well as introducing income tax cuts so what is behind germany's. question is is it all just defy that is something i would like to
8:21 am
discuss now with fabio lin now he's an economist working at the market economic policy institute at once buckle up foundation which is close to the german federation of trade unions good to have you with us let me start straight away with this why are germany so european neighbors and to the international monetary fund interested in berlin spending more money and the european commission and the european central bank basically everybody in the world it's because we have those huge exports surpluses that means we export so much more than being paul and we need government to spend more money to create more domestic income and then part of that income will flow in. imports and increase. increase income abroad and this is something that really europe needs badly because a lot of countries are still in crisis mode so this is one of the reasons of course in recent years we've heard that consumer spending in germany for one has increased
8:22 am
significantly actually and to the new could actually government already agreed to increasing spending on education are indeed digitalisation on families agriculture mobility and of course defense so what's missing so they say there will increase a lot but if you really look at the numbers it's not really so much what we've seen recently with a new budget coming out from the new finance minister we see even a slight decrease in infrastructure investment and infrastructure investment is really one of the most important things that we need at the moment our public infrastructure is falling apart and has been doing so for the last fifteen years and we even see a decrease in infrastructure spending and this is very sound we what we basically do is that we have high surpluses take surpluses but we don't use the money affected to do something for our crumbling infrastructure so in terms of infrastructure because that is a recurring theme do you think that the government is taking a risk by not investing enough it absolutely is this so much missing it's really schools are crumbling roads are crumbling this is bad for education this is bad for
8:23 am
our companies the companies in rural areas the small medium companies the backbone of our economy who cannot transport the products to the customers so also in terms of the digital networks in terms of energy networks we have a huge problem and what about tax cuts income tax cuts corporate tax cuts perhaps something the i.m.f. is asking for so what we do have is this debt break in our constitution which basically prohibits us from running deficits this is and if we would cut taxes now we would have to creases and tax income which would make it even harder to increase spending on infrastructure. so i would very much to spend more on infrastructure because this is really something that is worthwhile for the future of germany's economy now of course the finance ministry which turnaround is that look at all those challenges that we're facing right now brics it nobody knows how that's going
8:24 am
to play out then we have a possible trade dispute with the united states and so forth is now the right time perhaps to say for a rainy day. not really it's quite the opposite we have two things no domestic economy because we're exporting so much and since we see a lot of danger to export from the us why a break that we need to strengthen our own domestic economy and by spending more on infrastructure we would expect that all right that would be the advice to the german finance minister from fabia lynn from homs book foundation thank you so much for being here today. germany's biggest ally is going to hold its annual shareholders meeting later today. or looks to have a pretty picture in tow for invest as more passengers small cars go on more profits than ever before but experts say the challenge for germany's flagship kerio will be to keep the good times rolling beyond the end of the year. is
8:25 am
flying high on the back of its twenty seventeen annual report germany's leading airline carried more passengers than ever before and it defended its position as europe's largest carrier thanks to higher income in its cargo logistics and maintenance units is looking at the most profitable year in its history. the bottom line is that lufthansa saw net profits jump by a third to almost two point four billion euros and its free cash flow which allows the airline to maintain its fleet and pay for new acquisitions almost doubled to two point two billion euros. and that's cash lufthansa needs thanks to millions in additional costs associated with acquiring parts of defunct air berlin love times his numbers were also bolstered by lower than normal write offs last year that situation will likely change the airline is also likely to face turbulence in the form of increased competition in its long haul services and an image problem at its
8:26 am
u.s. alliance partner united airlines. well this is usually. where we look at goodness legal other kinds of sports perhaps racing and actually racing is exactly the right cue here terry is and you can race just about anything it seems. the temperature rises in the northern hemisphere and the flowers bloom homeowners know it's time again for the weekly chore of cutting grass but where some see drudgery others see an opportunity for monika already gave away sport allow us to introduce you to a lot more racing. me and it's. but these drivers when wanted any other way. mastering the navigating through tight curves i too have to drive it's biggest challenge. and the sport is more painful
8:27 am
than it knocks. the championship round. which doesn't seem that. but if you're going. from the. boy if you're probably going to. tricks to succeed in this type of pacing pacing pacing otherwise drivers risk tiring themselves in many ways it's not that different from formula one the point system works very much more you get twenty four points. we have four races twenty five points eight points and the driver with the most points at the end of the season takes the crown not more racing may not have the same glitz and glamour formula one but it's on the cutting edge. you're watching to still to come
8:28 am
activists opposite sides of the political spectrum who. are hungry strongman leader is bringing them together. maimed by war we look at how the syrian conflict has dramatically changed the life of this ten year old girl and her determination to care. all that and more still to come here on. a go. the end is legal highlights. they're down but not yet out. combo losing friends and things in life. but who have to wait to the final match stick to see who gets demoted and who makes
8:29 am
it into the relegation battle. in sixty minutes total. hijacking the news. where i go wrong with the news is being hijacked journalism itself has become a script is a reality show it's not just good versus evil us versus them black and white. in countries like russia china church people are told it's that simple and if you're a journalist and you try to get beyond it you are facing. intimidation and i wonder is that where work headed is well. my responsibility as a journalist is to get me on the smoking mirrors it's not just about being fair and balanced or being neutral it's about being truthful. finding is important golf and i were.
8:30 am
going to. get cooking for the white house. round is fake you know but the shut up of who is your favorite team. and look to discipline him to bring them up to show good politics to the entire country champions of free insurance for the last sixty five years. before mine's. welcome back your news i'm terry martin. u.s. president donald trump is set to announce his decision on the future of the iran nuclear deal later today european backers oppose a u.s. withdrawal saying the deal has successfully halted to rennes nuclear ambitions. and armenian protest leader nicko passion is set to make his second attempt to be
8:31 am
elected prime minister the ruling republican party had blocked his bid for office in a vote last week but is since assured its support. hungary's anti immigrant leader viktor orban is due to be formally reelected today as prime minister by the country's parliament for bonds fit as party came out as the big winner in recent elections securing over sixty six percent of the seats it appears unassailable in parliament but opposition is growing on the streets of budapest our reporter frank off bond was in the capital and met up with two activists they and thousands of others are planning to mark formal reelection with mass anti-government protests. and tattling new couch are an unlikely pair he's left wing while she was once a member of congress conservative christian democratic party but they agree on one thing today they're helping organize
8:32 am
a demonstration against their common enemy the ruling right wing populist few days party they say that since the most recent elections in april few days has turned hungary into an autocratic state yes the fetus and the christian don't party isn't christian and isn't democratic and against or why because. because that is the refugees of the against fancies and because of their corruption because. three tiny. tendencies thank prime minister viktor obama made the refugee crisis the centerpiece of his electoral campaign that helped him lead him to an overwhelming victory. but. the biggest danger is that millions of immigrants are threatening us from the south and the leaders of europe allied with the billionaire speculator do not want to defend the borders they want to let in the immigrants but.
8:33 am
the speculator in question is george soros an american billionaire who's become a populist foyle public enemy number one during the campaign and vilified on posters around the country some of the attacks have been interpreted as anti-semitic soros was born in budapest to hungary and jewish family since the fall of the iron curtain has open society foundation to sponsor pro-democracy initiatives in formerly communist countries he has plenty of support among conservatives in much of europe. hungary's ruling right wing political polity fit you just has been criticised for many years by its western european partners but now the. when its own political family becomes more and more critical the european people's party in the european parliament more and more members are saying time is up from this to all but. even so it is
8:34 am
a strong performance in last month's election site when a record number of votes the party's strongest in the countryside while the opposition can only claim the capital budapest other cities are politically divided . and i thank goodness for the common sense of the country people to that family but that they support families and pension is they provide jobs they defend our borders which is very important that to be their man i mean i do i'm from the group but what about we were afraid of retribution from viktor or. mean that they get health care comes last we have thousands of football stadiums but not one hundred hospital. dares came to power eight years ago since then many young people have left on gori. and cattlemen lookouts want to stay there and to keep protesting or advance government. they might want all the way to rights to cure
8:35 am
all especially the both of you it is enough. that. the struggle goes on with budapest one of the last strongholds against right wing populism but it's unclear how long the city can hold out. well the w.'s frank hall who filed that report is with us now in the studio good to see you frank and i mean given viktor orban overwhelming election victory the victory of his feet as party does he have anything to fear from those street protests planned for today i don't think so i mean he has gained as many votes as never before doing the two reasons elections eight and four years ago. what i can say it's. he feels parties saying that these protests is coming out of the civil society it's a enemies of the state financed by outside powers this is
8:36 am
a lie this is a narrative brought up by the foetus party already during the election campaign that means that the political discussion poisons in hungary opposition and also that civil society we present is of not seen as competitive competitors in a political discussion but as enemies and that shows a lot about the political climate in the country at the moment i think all the opposition that does exist in hungary small though it is i mean they had hoped that in the recent elections a higher than expected turnout would play in their favor it didn't does the opposition have any strategy for bouncing back and reclaiming this sphere for themselves as competitors and not enemies look when my son was stunned especially the public media on the control of the of the fetus polity and installed followers that means that single lecturer comparing the positional polities had really chances to present themselves in public and in the media that's the first
8:37 am
one the second is i spoke to a very interesting figure coming out of the civil society a person that organized public meetings during the whole of puppets for. the public media bringing opposition candidates together for discussion and he said look i think we are here in specially after the election and in the face where we have to recruit always selves and we have to think about how garion democracy from the beginning again. let's look at it or bought himself in the position that he's in you talked about having unprecedented strength now in terms of the support for among the electorate he has a two thirds majority in parliament what could he do with that power he could change the constitution absolutely as he said he can change the constitution and one important point also. today will be whether this majority in the hunger in parliament is going to change the constitution called the seventh amendment of the constitution which would interfere with european legislation the european union's
8:38 am
open to agreement says that the e.u. can distribute refugees among them and the states these in european countries always refused to do so but now in more and more discussions on the way to ease the pressure in italy and greece finally eastern europe shelved step in and help this amendment says that this is not possible with a new then. change constitution in hungary and here brussels will help really have a lot to talk about your already mentioned some of or bonds populist tactics that he's been using also how he's muzzling the media to some degree in civil society other eastern european countries like poland have emulated or bonds tactics to some degree what does this tell us about the region's political trajectory not only poland slovakia as well as you have several countries and central eastern europe that tough problems with their level of democracy. i think what we see here is
8:39 am
if this is not going to change very soon we will come up with a shift in the u.p.a. union probably along the lines of the euro zone countries and the others poland neither poland hungary are member of the euro and especially not as we talk about reach shifting the budgets as of two thousand and eleven at two thousand and twenty one sorry i have the feeling that these descript discussions will be in the sense and will be called discussions about the future of europe frank thank you so much correspondent frank off month thank you again. for. now to syria where the conflict is entering its seventh year the vast toll on human life keeps on mount. children are particularly vulnerable to volves falling all residential areas thousands have been killed in government air strikes and many others left with a permanent disability a reporter met with one young victim in the city of god in southern turkey the ten

single child inside syria that will live to escape the effects and the consequences of that or when i think back to my visiting in i know two things come to my mind immediately one is the impression every child of all of their younger than seventy years has gone through a child of quare every single child has witnessed nothing of violence constant. fear and displacement and the second impression of course very strongly is once you stand in the middle in the rubble of the ruins of east on one of. the level of destruction in these cities is far too much for any evidence for any of us so what's that me it's all the psychological consequences you know then later when speaking switches are not just humans it's just not to our children more vulnerable
8:48 am
than others when it comes to these war situations like what we're seeing now in syria. well what we saw in syria over the years now is that the deliberate attacks on the densely populated area like you know the whole more recently in eastern is just massively affecting children because they still live there some of the the impact of the bomb bottom office is just immense and then we have other effects we see the deliberate targeting of institutions like schools and hospitals there managed to service and to protect children and we see just in the last year in two thousand and seven we had a number of more than sixty seventy attacks all schools where many of those children and the teachers have being hit would also be of the injured so there is a risk also to children when they're in situations of being attacked and you talked
8:49 am
about the scars of war both physical and psychological for these children who've experienced the war in syria what effect does that have on their development and what can be done to help them. there's several layers of effects i think one and one thing is that we need if you need to take care of their children wherever we can find them inside syria are all on their way to meet already countries and also including to europe they need care they need protection and they need education every single day in school every single day in care or in the kindergarten is paving a huge and in making sure that these children buying their way back to a moment if they can i think we need to acknowledge that inside syria especially in those areas which are still hard to reach and we still have a number of more than a million children living in these top to reach areas it is very difficult to reach them were psychosocial aged and. their order to change but still we need to be.
8:50 am
tried but he spaces. i witnessed. every single shot we get the impression at times that the war in syria is slowly winding down is it becoming easier for your organization to get in there and help the children in syria. it is then it is not i think we need to be clear that the war is not over and then you have continuous fighting and continuous attacks all on the areas where children are living. there will be the response is going to slow over ok also in that in a number of cities. where you i think. we have a huge response to the room through the names or worms and lives which is a. special response. on the other hand yes there are several of us that we
8:51 am
don't know and we do live every single day in syria this is not a thank you so much for talking with us that was question not a director of unicef germany talking to us from cologne i think it. well the conflict in syria has also caused millions to lose their homes and jobs as they've been forced to flee the country in our next report we meet a renowned syrian bee keeper who lost his livelihood when all of his two hundred beehives were destroyed is now starting from scratch in the united kingdom one hive at a time. for dr riyad all sooth the bee hives he tends not only produce honey they also give him home for. his b. colonies in the english city of hunter's fields are giving him the chance to establish a new life in a new country. we. integrated quickly. maybe because we have special strong thrust as our strength
8:52 am
to discipline our life the be professor fled damascus with his wife and twenty thirteen to avoid the fighting in syria he had to leave behind two hundred b. colonies and decades of research he was granted asylum in england but his new life all they began when an ad he placed on facebook bore fruit and he received a donated beehive since then he has cultivated seven british black bee colonies his goal is in three years' time to be producing as much honey as he did in damascus and he wants to set up a business there whether he. wanted to plough or what people are more the middle east company. so maybe the. production of its high. in syria is about particularly. dr seuss
8:53 am
feels it is important to produce and sell local honey in his new home country he is bothered by the fact that ninety percent of the honey and local supermarkets is imported and he wants to change that and at the same time he wants to build community so dr all seuss has created the buzz project in huddersfield its aim is to encourage other refugees to become active gain skills and also begin a new life here and it will also strengthen the local b. population. many of the vast number of photos and videos shared online every second contain offensive or illicit content social media platforms like google and facebook have rules banning posts with violent threatening or pornographic content but who actually monitors and deletes the offending posts a new documentary tracks down the so-called digital cleaners many are working in

the philippines. it's a never ending clean up job killer one that facebook and co have outsourced not silicon valley but manila here thousands of cleaners calling themselves content moderators get to work sorting the good from the bad. what goes on here is a tightly guarded secret. because of the extreme reprisals we ultimately had to decide that we could only show people in front of the camera who had just left the job before filming or knew they would do it so that the. some cleaners can get through twenty thousand pictures and videos every day digital sheriffs trying to clean the web here just think of the cement. my main goal is to make that point and healthy as possible. supervisors check the decisions of the cleaners on a random basis punishing those that make three mistakes in a month but what is

a mistake laws can be fuzzy in practice internet companies determine what they consider illegal. kind or picked even guidelines that are nor jets of guidelines that can be simply executed it's always about interrogating an image but taking the context into account and that requires cultural background knowledge. background knowledge that can be hard to come by in a few days of on the job training much to the annoyance of this california artist whose portrayal of a rather small trump was removed from facebook with little explanation. if big green. personality. where does art and where does pornography begin what is necessary documentation of war crimes and what is propaganda for terrorists social media has become a hotbed of conspiracy hate speech and fake news. that. a regrettable mistake as
