uncomfortable or disrespected. to some other news now and north korea says it is still willing to talk with the united states quote at any time this after u.s. president donald trump abruptly canceled a highly anticipated summit with north korea's leader kim jong il and in a letter to kim president trump blamed his decision on quote open hostility from pyongyang south korea has expressed regret that the summit is not going forward. donald trump's letter that puts a plan so much with north korea on ice the u.s. president blamed on young's open hostility towards washington with korea but trump left open the possibility of meeting at a later date if north korea fulfilled the u.s. demand for denuclearization if and when kim jong un chooses to engage in constructive dialogue and actions. i am waiting trump was asked if the move would make war more likely to see what happens i heard that.

will continue on with. just hours before a tunnel leading to north korea's underground nuclear testing site. was blown up by pyongyang as a gesture of goodwill the government there responded to trump's decision the abrupt announcement of the consolation of the meeting is unexpected for us and we can't put find it extremely regrettable we again state to the u.s. our willingness to sit face to face at any time in any form to resolve the problem . seoul has said it will keep pushing for dialogue between pyongyang and washington news of trump's decision came as a disappointment to south koreans hoping for progress towards peace. with. north korea has already released u.s. detainees and dismantle its nuclear test site but the u.s.

has tested north korea's patients i think this is the reason for the consolation of the summit people on the korean peninsula including myself are worried that it will go back to an unstable situation with the. president to move in who matter kim jong un at a historic summit last month said he was perplexed by trump's consolation after big steps forward it appears resolving tensions on the korean peninsula won't be as quick and easy as some had hoped earlier we spoke with a marcus kind from the german institute for international and security affairs and asked him if this cancellation was a strategic move by trump. it's to mean more than in some kind of emergency exits from the from the administration because what has been has become obvious over the last couple of weeks is that both sides talk about denuclearization but they mean totally different things for the united states the comprehensive are feibel in the media do you know there is

a nation of north korea's starting point of negotiations or if you can make a career that's the end point if i book and bent has like a very keen eyes that means that the whole strategy of the united states you know and i feel it. and that was marcus kind from the german institute for international security affairs speaking to a little earlier now to some other stories making headlines around the world the netherlands and australia say they are holding russia responsible for shooting down malaysia airlines flight m.h. seventy nearly four years ago the announcement is likely to lead to legal action it comes after investigators said the missile that brought down the plane over eastern ukraine came from a russia based military unit all two hundred ninety eight passengers and crew were killed moscow rejects the accusation in canada fifteen people have been injured in an explosion in the toronto suburb mississauga police are searching for two men suspected of having detonated an improvised explosive device inside

a restaurant and then fleeing the scene police say the three people admitted to the hospital are in critical condition and they are now stable. according kosovo has jailed two doctors for illegally harvesting kidneys and selling the organs to wealthy patients in other countries the court says the doctors used fraudulent means to report patients and their organs were sold for as much as one hundred thousand euros. now voting has started in an historic referendum in ireland people are going to the polls to decide on whether to reform the country's near total ban on abortions polls open in the last few hours with the result expected this weekend ireland has seen weeks of bitter campaigning which has left the mostly catholic nation divided currently ireland has some of the most restrictive laws in europe the only legal case for an abortion is a pregnant woman's life is at risk in cases of rape or fetal abnormalities women in

ireland have to travel abroad for abortions went to meet one of those women. in a loving mother that's what jennifer ryan always hoped to be six years ago she was pregnant for the second time it seemed like a normal pregnancy until a routine scan in the twenty second week brought jennifer's world crashing down she can still remember the doctor's exact words. oh no she was. your baby has a lot of problems and she has a very severe form a spinal bifida starting on her and her shoulder blades and she won't be able to survive with us and on top of the. kidneys and the severity of the spinal bifida cause a lot of damage from brain your baby is incompatible with life. jennifer decided she wanted to spare her baby any pain and have an abortion what happened next was almost as traumatic she and her husband had to hastily arrange a trip to

a clinic in liverpool because doctors in island couldn't help. are you ready. they couldn't talk about it over here we got the details of. a scrap of paper you know we had to ring ourselves they couldn't do any of that for us. just you know like you were just talking alone. they took a ferry to liverpool went there and back in twenty four hours it's a journey three to four thousand women make each year it's proof that terminations are reality and i learned to say those who want the country's strict abortion law to be repealed these activists in central dublin come painting for giving women the choice. but anti abortion campaigners fear if the law is repealed women could feel pressured into terminating their pregnancies for example if the baby has a disability. can you imagine going into a hospital this assists life concern or slight issue. that doctors will be obliged

if we have at all allowing for abortion to tell people and explain that they can have an abortion and suddenly you feel undermined so thinly your commitment to a pregnancy is is reduced some even oppose abortions in cases of rape. there are other options out there and would never like to think that a woman feels she has to have an abortion. although jennifer ryan can understand this view she's in favor of repealing the law she believes only the woman can decide what's right for her. my daughter was never going to have a life she was never going to exist in this world you know she was never going to got a chance to live like the doctors to tell me she wasn't one to be able to breathe i wasn't pretty i was protecting her making the choice i made i was protecting her from pain jennifer's unborn daughter holds a special place in the family's hearts jessica would have been her name jennifer

hopes women will soon no longer have to go through what she did oh. what. you're watching news still to come he was an american boxing icon with a century ago until you're going to jail and now jack johnson has been posthumously pardoned by u.s. president trump. but first g.d.p. our if you don't know if you're here in europe you will as of today you have more on a europe's new data protection law that's right as of today many europeans actually feel they're getting their lives back and at least the digital part of it the e.u. has recognized that personal data is private and belongs to the individual so as of today every e.u. citizen can demand that companies like facebook google or amazon tell us what kind of personal data they hold what they do with it and have it corrected or even deleted whether you use the internet to search for information connect with friends

or simply to do your shopping going online means sharing personal information but in many cases it's unclear exactly what happens to that data who has access to it what can companies do with it the new e.u. legislation aims to address some of these issues. under the new rules companies will only be allowed to collect data relevant to their services so whether app for example won't be allowed to access your address book or photographs. the new regulations also afford individuals the right to launch a complaint with a supervisory authority in their own country instead of potentially having to challenge a foreign company abroad those violating data protection rules will face harsher fines instead of the maximum three hundred thousand euros in germany companies will face up to twenty million euros in penalties or four percent of annual turnover

whichever is bigger for facebook but to be one point three billion euros. the new regulation requires companies and website operators to pay closer attention to what they do with their users information. and remaining legal anomalies are likely to be settled in the courts in the coming years. consumer watchdogs have welcomed the new rules and say they give individuals more control over their personal information. though all sounds well and good but are we regulating our digital economy to dest us data protections stand in the way of progress questions i want to discover here's a locker is technology and politics editor motherboards germany thank you very much for coming to the studio to raise or are we making life to dig difficult for the digital economy and i we actually preventing european success story like facebook

you know i think quite the opposite i think this is a decision that was long overdue and i think in the light of hacking scandal so came about every day basically in the last year or so it is an important part for growing up and i mean growing up also for businesses to handle consumer daughter in a responsible way and also having informational duties to towards the customer so i think that is a very good step mark zuckerberg who's been very much the focus of criticism recently he said that his company is always in here to this regulation let's just listen in to what he said. giving people control of how they're doing as a minister has been a core principle of facebook for since the beginning. but in g.d.p. are some new controls and. some areas that we need to comply with but overall it isn't such a massive departure from how we've approached this in the past and i don't want to

downplay it there are stronger roles but that where we've needed to put a bunch of work into making sure that we comply with but as a whole the philosophy behind this is not completely different from how we approach . the rights to facebook take data protection you know i don't think they he knows exactly how to apply these new rules to what happened with the cameras because scandal for example because otherwise this wouldn't have come about we know that mexico but had to testify in front of the u.s. senate exactly because. troves of users were exposed have exposed to the company absolutely no control over it and my second book also kind of invaded a lot of critical questions by saying well i will follow up on that in written form of course because you just couldn't say who has this who has the daughter so no i

don't think facebook has been in a major role of the there's data protection ok just recently one example of technology standing in the way of a previous season ending in the way just recently i was looking for flats here in berlin and i looked online for flats and i checked out the one of the check out the area with a check of the houses on google street view which i find incredibly useful and you know this is what i got this is i don't know whether we can see it yes the many many houses here in berlin are just blurred out because one person in the house demands that that the whole house is being. blood out we taking previously and data protection to fall well i think it is a choice and prissy is it is a choice and can be a choice and other countries can be kind of for out of this role that uses take on here because otherwise you have

a lot of informational information or rights that are being used and i think that the new g.d.p. our g.d.p. our is a step in the direction that uses can actually os companies what are you doing with my daughter who's going to see what's who's going to use going to get it so to and this is i think important also for you how you doctor travels throughout the internet because otherwise when you don't take up this right for example to see where your daughter has moved to is being moved to by one company and it can solve these mysteries of why this shoe at is following you around for years and years and years and i think this transparency is long overdue in a way thank you very much there's an offer for it thirty two of on the trip to china the german chancellor has spent a day in the southern city of shenzhen where she viewed chinese innovations in

areas like self driving cars an artificial intelligence business has already proven to be top of the agenda during her visit as a meeting with her chinese counterpart g jinping in beijing on thursday it's also called on trying to improve market access for german companies the two leaders agreed on strengthened to strengthen cooperation on trade technology now let's cross over to our correspondent years building on who covers the visit for us in transit money as the chancellor was in shands and today why that place. question john is quite a symbolic praise for china this is where the reforms have started forty years ago that have made this chinese economic miracle possible and this is also today the place where most where a lot of start ups have been evolving especially in the era of in the area of

artificial intelligence and digital it's also called china's silicon valley and this is something where china and germany are kind of eyeing each other partnering and come pete ing this is where the future of the economic future many believe is going to be decided so this is a very symbolic place but talk of the tech industry technology transfer and china's infringement continues infringement of intellectual property rights are ongoing concerns for german companies that operate in joint ventures that has the chancellor brought up that issue i think we might have lost contact correspondent barely have ever tried to reestablish that bring in the rest of the interview later but now it's a different story a u.s. court has ordered south korean electronics giant some song to pay five hundred thirty nine million dollars to its rival apple the american tech firm had accused

some some of copyright its design of smartphones samsung have argued it should pay much less in damages but the court sided with apple warning about half of the one billion dollars apple had demanded the ruling is a win for the i phone maker in the long running legal battle between the two tech giants. that's why we have business over to soon enough for this weekend's big european football finale that's right there have the excitement is building for the men's champions league final on saturday real madrid and liverpool will face each other in kiev ukraine fans waited for the arrival of liverpool outside their downtown hotel will not disappoint the bulls german coach and club was all smiles and the fans got to see the team including star striker as the squad prepares for the game. in the women's champions league final french powerhouse li all soared

pass germany's false berth for one the loss for the wolves may mean they missed out on winning three trophies this season both for retain their bundesliga and german cup titles earlier this month but defending champ leon proved too strong in extra time the women's champions league final was held in kiev just like the men's equivalent this coming saturday fans flocked to the game knowing both borg and lee all were on for a possible trouble leon were unlucky in regulation time when wolfsburg snow well martz appeared to clear the ball behind the line no goal line technology in this match early in extra time grabbed a surprise lead through personal hard there we all know weren't deterred and we both did not own that he can kill all know what the play is quickly put this aside and i could see it in the faces. they kept pushing forward so perhaps they thought there was a bit unfair conceding this first goal so i didn't doubt for very long and then i

saw that the players really did the rest you'll feel all three of us and the rest was when leon's a medina on he hit back after alexandra pop was sent off and a french champions then ran away with it thanks to three more goals including the head go back strike. we all became the first women's team to lift the trophy three times in a row and they not boast were concealer trouble if they win the french cup final at the end of the month. u.s. president donald trump has pardoned boxing's first african-american heavyweight champion jack johnson in one thousand nine hundred eight johnson conquered the heavyweight boxing world in a racially divided united states he was arrested four years later for his involvement with a white woman that conviction has stood since until now jack johnson made history after the turn of the century becoming the first black heavyweight boxing champion back in one thousand no wait the sport was segregated and the u.s.
