of government funding germany's e.u. plan as a light had to criticize germany's frugality once again and 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 some income tax cuts well earlier we spoke to the economist father in the and asked him where he could afford to spend a little bit more. so they say they 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 batch of 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 a lot of 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 basically do is that we have height so pluses take so pluses but we don't use the money effect to do something for i was crumbling infrastructure so german coffee doing well and so

the airline to maintain its fleet and pay for new acquisitions almost doubled to two point two billion euros. and that's cash left terms and needs thanks to millions in additional costs associated with acquiring parts of defunct air berlin love terms 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 u.s. alliance partner united airlines. well at another annual meeting the c.e.o. of germany's coming out bank martin is eelco the lender had a solid start this year the bank posted net earnings of one hundred fifty six billion euros in the first quarter and the cost of laying off thousands of workers this way on profits have come out bank is set to cut seventy three hundred jobs by twenty twenty as it tries to improve its bottom line comments by plans to stop

a ron's economy with collapse. the streets of tehran are in a sorry state to go. them and only repairs the very worst sections of road and to do that they need machinery from abroad including cranes excavators and bulldozers when sanctions against iran were eastern twenty fifteen many western companies seize the opportunity to do business including many german companies back in the nineteen seventies iran was germany's second most important export market outside europe after the usa. last year iranian firms delivered goods worth four hundred million euros to germany above all oiled according to the german chamber of industry and commerce germany for its part exported three billion euros worth of goods to iran. the easing of sanctions brought more than just machinery to iran they were also food products and other goods that created

jobs to a total of six hundred thousand per year since twenty fifteen. but there isn't anywhere near enough a total of half of all females under thirty with high school diplomas and a third of all males in the same demographic are unemployed. a return to economic sanctions against iran will only make the situation worse european countries don't want to resume sanctions and european companies currently doing business in iran don't want to run the risk of countervailing u.s. sanctions if a return. now will or you'll hit eighty ninety or we even one hundred dollars it's certainly been a while since we've read headlines like that but that could also be set to change the oil prices been climbing steadily for months and over the last year is junk save that sixty percent on monday about of brant crude cost around seventy five

been restricted in private homes and as a result water has become a precious commodity. those with money have been digging their own wells pfizer golding hired a contractor to do it. which means that. this is the state so looking at that. but in the future it's actually base to get it because this is now my. property basically so i'm going to be saving costs. but it's no small investment either depending upon its debts a single well can cost over seven thousand euros in the goldings case the company reckons it will have to drill about seventy metres to access water that's safe to drink. the company has seen a huge rise in demand for wells over the last few months. it's always been very busy but in the last eighteen months since the water crisis has really become

more severe we have been inundated with phone calls. regardless of how good business is the boss doesn't believe that digging your own well is the solution to the water crisis using the ball wisely means done more to your garden six hours or ten hours a day from get to meet the pompon and think i'll switch it off tomorrow something that uses. one company that has a long history in the water business is jo-jo tanks its tanks can be found all over south africa and at its plant and western employees are working around the clock to meet demand. us into jobs on. really challenges people's thinking. called a loaf how they use will to plan it does apply to all that you need to challenge be a it dog putting a load of flesh always spinning also support deciding devices these socking kind of
