peace goes to one wanted children. feel warm winning documentary starting june fourteenth on d w. this is due to the news live from the latest missions of the international space station blasts off. and launch some time from baikonur cosmodrome in kazakhstan the co-pilot's in part of germany alex on the guest of the crew three will carry out dozens of experiments some in preparation for future missions to mars all the program. people flee somalia is a volcano erupts again seventy five people are confirmed dead the search results for most of us in the blanketed with hot.

sauce are found world cup and warm up much in jerusalem palestinian groups say it's the right decision. i'm still going to welcome to the program the latest mission to the international space station is all its way. three two one. they're. still here a strong crew crew blasted off from me by kurt all cosmodrome in kazakhstan copilot hit by an alexander guest on the second mission he'll take over as command later this year. i was on the guest american serina hour when a on chance of a russian surrogate for a copy of will spend six months aboard the international space station that's

a long time to be away from family and friends don't be a correspondent yury rachet are these pictures of dr guests and goodbye on his way to the loge pad crews are quarantined before takeoff to safeguard against illness and dr just had one last message for his mother before driving off. thomas reiter is a former astronaut he's now an advisor to the european space agency he spoke to us from the launch site in baikonur we asked him if he wished he was on his way back into space. it brings really memories for me it's already more than twenty years ago that i was launching from. at this time to the russian space station and you know seeing this perfect launch today was just gorgeous and of course seeing the three person crew with. blasting to the blue sky. it's

just marvelous if somebody would ask me if my boss would ask me if i would be ready to go again i wouldn't have to think twice it takes ninety minutes only to fly around the earth every ninety minutes you have a sunrise sunset and when you're on the night side of the orbit the look into the stary sky is something unbelievable i've never seen such hysteria sky here from so this all together makes it extremely unique to live and work up there. thomas reiter speaking to us of the houses and from the european space agency said control team welcome to d.w. so seventy your job is to make sure it goes out there safely and come back safely kind of saw i am not crucified and you're a calm which means so far across a part we support the astronaut before its mission so when they're assigned to a mission are two years before we will support them preparing the mission to support their launch during the mission and post flight and of course landing when

they come back we'll pick them up so when it happened earlier this afternoon what was going through your mind as you watched so i got to know him quite well and this is another guest yes sorry guest and while i could feel it also i know his really confident he knows what he's doing he's cool about it i think but watching it from the balloon terrio i already kind of nervous and i can imagine my colleague who was there in the baikonur was even more if you ever wanted to go up yourself. i like both so i like it here on ground as well very much because it's also a really nice charge and with a lot of responsibility and you get to know the crew you get to know very different people it's very interdisciplinary but i would never say no to going up of course i think almost no one would say no you know this is i was going to get second i assess the mission he's also due to take command when he gets up there so. how

would you say his job as commander be different from those first crewmates. so as a commander he has the greatest bounce ability he'll have to deal if you have all of his colleagues. great over a few of all the tasks to do and also being in contact with the ground with threat control teams and the flight directors taking their. decisions so and he'll make sure it's carried out on board and as well if there are any kind of emergencies like fire repartee person toxic atmosphere on station he will have to responsibility and share. the workload kind of in between all the six crew members you know the isis has been in operation i think since one thousand nine hundred ninety eight. is there any part of it that's routine yet that's a good question so even for me of work to an hour and a half it's already

a routine handoff but i think still there's this routine you know how to do a mission we know how to prepare but for every astronaut there's something new or they maybe want something new in preparation and there's always something we haven't done before so it's always exciting and it's all this new challenges and while they're up there for six months what will it be doing so we will have mainly carry out many projects so far extended guest we heard today it's about two hundred and fifty of them are european so he will have a lot to do to read through the experiments to understand them and then to read through all the procedures but he has to do so we can imagine when he gets up in the morning there's a conference where you discuss what you will do during the day because he has a timeline so you do have data on the ground we will discuss this with him and they're exactly so there's the euro com and the european communicator and old international partners with their flight control teams also have communicators and

reset kind of we sit together but we speak on space to ground with the astronauts in the morning and see if there are any changes to the daily plan or if he had a question the even before and we can answer it. we wish you all well. we'll get you on here back to talk just as an ultimate thank you thank you. so if you want to find out more about this latest ideas. mission or indeed see those pictures of the blast off again go to d.w. dot com forward slash science or follow us on twitter and see the handle at the bottom of the screen. in other news fresh flows of superheated ash and mud from guatemala volcano of fire forced more people from the officials say at least seventy five people have been killed since the fall and i began erupting at the weekend and almost two hundred more still missing authorities of the issue new evacuation orders and residents have begun to panic about what is to come.

fleeing the disaster zone. people left their homes as fast as they could taking with them only what they could carry on their own. many hoping for a quick escape or slowed down by clogged roads. authorities issued evacuation orders for half a dozen villages after increased volcanic activity on tuesday raising the threat of further lava flows and hot ash. there were reports of panic but others tried not to . the truth is you don't know what to do. i think what we have to do is to be calm and prayed. i. want to feel those made homeless have been turning to emergency shelters they're depending on authorities to take care of their immediate needs. it's

a pity and we're hoping the government will help us we don't have anywhere to stay we've lost everything our land our homes we couldn't take anything with us. back in the disaster area many homes have been buried by ash. rescue crews are looking for survivors and victims but they acknowledge their progress has been slow to do to the dangerous terrain. that there are manuals say that the first response is supposed to be within seventy two hours. what hasn't been taken into account is the factors holding back our work. like volcanic material at high temperatures we're talking between four hundred seven hundred degree celcius. the area around the volcano is normally lush farmland but where the ash has fallen it now looks more like a lunar landscape. but meanwhile dozens more homes in the u.s.

state of hawaii have also been destroyed by law flowers this time from a killer whale volcano authorities say some residents who had chosen not to leave had to be rescued by helicopter killer whale has now destroyed almost two hundred properties since it began erupting on hawaii's big island last month. israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu is in britain the third stop on a tour aimed at pushing european allies to take a tougher line on iran but like the leaders of france germany and france british prime minister theresa may stressed her country's commitment to the iran nuclear deal so long as to meet its obligations. jordan has a second nationwide strike as demonstrations against the controversial plan to raise income tax rates continue the country's prime minister has already stepped down as a result of days of public protest mccain has asked the new prime minister to review the tax system. and watching t.w. news live from but it still to come skin break bleaching remakes of women in the

democratic republic of congo we're willing to risk that health for light skins. i guess is here with news of brussels taking aim at u.s. exports that's one of the us taking a rather hard line in response to the new us terrace the block will impose import duties on a raft of u.s. products beginning in july the new penalties were announced today and come in response to increased u.s. duties on imported steel and other media that took effect this month about three point four billion dollars worth of u.s. imports are expected to be hit by the new measures ranging from agricultural products to steel and bourbon whiskey list could also be expanded with time e.u. officials have said. now following the story for us from frankfurt is our financial correspondent. we still gloat about the threat of tariffs on the state and big

business level but will the average person on the street be impacted and how. for example in the united states still tariffs are used by the steel companies and the car companies to pass the higher costs on to consumers and they will be affected in here with consumer goods affected like peanut butter or orange juice or per perhaps jeans the margins in this kind of business with retailers are much smaller so i think here there won't be much of a decision to pass them on it will make things more expensive for the average consumer here in the u. in these products really you know if we've been talking about a trade war for him since donald trump came to office and all this this tit for tat in terrorists when does it actually become a trade war we in one already. it actually becomes

a trade war talk to an economist about this and he said you know in the thirty's of the last century when the exports caved in by about sixty percent that was a trade war no one was talking today we're talking we're talking about very little exports that might be affected and so far it's a cold trade war he said it can also be a call the current conflict in a dispute but of course the risk of the next leg as collation true a trade war it's there the risk is there live on sometimes for it thank you very much. as well trade war no trade war cold trade war disputes over trade always come from imbalances in this case a trade deficit on the u.s. side but figures published by the u.s. department of commerce today show the country's trade deficit actually dropped to seven months low in april the total global deficit in goods and services was forty six. billion dollars in april that's two point one percent down on march american

exports reached an all time high whilst imports fell mainly from mexico and japan bought the buy that's world trade deficit with china rose by more than eight percent to twenty eight billion dollars president trump repeatedly complains that countries like china are taking advantage of the u.s. he's already announced tariffs against fifty billion dollars worth of chinese goods like washing machines or solar panels america's deficit with the e.u. also rose by a whopping seventeen percent to almost fifteen billion dollars. this c.e.o. of qatar airways has apologized after saying his job was too difficult for a woman our borrower backer is known for his controversial statements this time he raised eyebrows at the annual meeting of the international air transport association. i don't think i asked about the issue among middle east airlines in

african countries but in the democratic republic of congo they remain big business . there's money to be made when women feel dissatisfied with how they look skin bleaching products are readily available in pharmacies and supermarkets and the democratic republic of congo business is booming not many women talk openly about using these products clarice is an exception she says having light skin is a beauty ideal she works hard to achieve. different creams which help you get lighter skin or you can use your normal body cream and mix that with a bleaching per day me it's cause you always need to add some guys are in for me there's only one choice a woman with lighter skin is more beautiful than a woman with dark skin you know feel. this ideal is deeply ingrained in many people's minds but it can be harmful dr carr cooler indo via works in a provincial hospital in goma he's educating people about the dangers of skin

bleaching. there is a better me says it is a good yeah there are a lot of side effects for example what we call ne which is a partial discoloration of the scene other patients get each. rush around the mouth and that can create a condition which we call them our or do we do it we don't believe. the. end exuma change takes time but in the d.n.c. and many other countries women are joining nappy movements nappy is shorthand for natural and happy lynda's you alabama is one of them. white black men in that role you have to feel connected to the earth to africa this is africa after all africa has not called after all for nothing yet that link to the earth to the

environment is playing an increasing role in cosmetics in africa too i'm not used to. using nightly natural products which are all around us some african countries have begun banning bleaching products but in the democratic republic of congo there's still a long way to go. argentina has canceled that saturday's of world cup warm up in israel following probe palestinian protest the decisions upset some israeli leaders who say leo messi and his team mates have given in to threats but israel's opposition has blamed the country's sports minister for politicizing the event palestinians have welcomed the cancellation argentina coach some poly was unhappy about playing a friendly in israel because of logistical reasons so close to the world cup now the game is cancelled but for very different reasons. the match was originally

switched from haifa to jerusalem angering palestinians the city has become the focus of controversy after u.s. president donald trump recognized it as israel's capital palestinians were further incensed because the jerusalem stadium is in the neighborhood of a former palestinian village having burned the argentinian flag protesters friend to burn replica jerseys of argentina starlin and messi. he will not under any circumstances agree to this match going ahead we've started a campaign against the argentinian football association in which we will target messi. a tweet from the argentinian embassy in israel confirmed the cancellation of the game and said that threats against messi prompted the solidarity of his team mates and fears of a playing the friendly israel prime minister benyamin netanyahu had hoped the game against one of the world cup favorites would be good publicity for israel he did

not qualify for the finals in russia but moving the match to drew slim has backfired defense minister avigdor lieberman said argentina had given in to israeli hating agitators a blow to israel politically but also a blow to argentina with a game due to have been the last warm up before the world cup kicks off next thursday. kristoff shot is campaign director for a vase the organization behind the boycott campaign welcome to d w so it's not a palestinian organization so why did you get involved in this particular fight we're a global organization the biggest global citizens movement in the entire world and we've stood with the people of palestine and the people of israel for years decades and we really believe as humans that palestinian lives matter and so we stood up for those people in gaza and across palestine we've been oppressed for so many years and we're we're really glad and we're really really happy that argentina was

so brave to say we're not going to play this game israel and so how does the cancellation of a football match less in the press room of palestinians so we think it is wrong how is the red has acted over the last weeks and over the last years they've shot unarmed protesters from far away they killed one hundred nineteen people in just a few weeks they used live ammunition and shot over three thousand of the these are these are these are things that israel has done the question was how does the book of the changing of a football venue lessen the oppression of palestinians so israel is a democracy and we hope that the people of israel can see that the world in this case the soccer players and people across the world. to rise with us to save lives matter and have israeli people to join in and the only thing that by canceling a football match people sitting at home in israel who have seen all this at first

hand will suddenly go oh that football much has been counseled i changed my mind and we hope that the people see that palestinians on the other side of the fence are humans too and that they will see that. that israel making that game political by moving it to jerusalem and saying come here and make kind of the capital normalize it that's not the right move. that the wall would stand up when this happens when they try to kind of whitewash this by having international players by having messi come who is a unicef ambassador for the children. israel's defense minister avigdor lieberman has been tweeting let's just take a look at this tree has some quite strong things to say he says it's too bad that the soccer heroes from argentina did not withstand the pressure of the israeli hating agitators whose only goal is to undermine a basic right to self-defense and to destroy israel we will not yield before a pack of and you submit to terrorist supporters strong words. all you semitic

terrorist supporters we are not anti-semitic we are pro humanity and the president of argentina football as a nation just that officially that they have done this and hope this is a contribution to world peace and to the second half of the question so you know and to submit to you terrorist supporters now we are we stand up for we are like we have members across the world over forty million who stand up for the issues that they care about so the reasons thank you so the reasons that argentina gave for counseling the march decisions because of security concerns do you accept that or would you think the this is more about politics so we've talked to officials in the us if a decision they've received an open letter from children in palestine they've received messages hopeful positive messages encouragement they've seen protests we had almost a million people sign a petition saying palestinian lives matter it's time for saying so israel from all that we know the push came from within the players eeg wine himself said i think

it's the right thing to do to not to go and we have seen that the people of the world do have an influence on sports people as well and so is it right to politicize football in this way we think that the israeli government tried to politicize it by moving it to resume and the players that know this is sports and want to build bridges want to build bridges to the people in the. the people who tell us time to show we stand with you and we see you so we think what they've done is actually the opposite of politicizing sports so just to be clear you seem to be saying that because israel politicized the issue it is right for the opposition to politicize the issue i say that because israel tried to politicize the issue is the right thing for argentina to pull out and also for the wall to stand up and say it is not ok to try to show that it's normal to play soccer in jerusalem which is not the capital of israel alone and so where does this leave the stadium in jerusalem

does this mean that any football match that takes place in your organization is going to be demanding boycotts like for right now we've seen over the last week the way that israel has reacted to the protests we have to say no the wall this is then a signal into israeli so you just what you have made clear but my question was really about whether you will be boycotting the games that take place in the stadium for ever if the games are being used to to whitewash israel's oppression on palestine israel showing pretending you resilient is the only capital that i think it is the right right call to go and play there. thank you for joining us christopher short from us the pleasure. search you up today to hold the talk off a column with me tom forces or the website w dot com i would. going to move.
