this is either you news live from berlin or verdict is due today in one of germany's longest and most notorious neo nazi murder trials back to cheapen the chief suspect in a string of racist murders crimes that shocked the nation still struggling to atone for its dark nazi past she was the only surviving allegedly member of the neo nazi cell known as the national socialist underground today after a mammoth five year trial she will hear her fix. also coming up mission impossible becomes mission accomplished title and react with gratitude exhilaration and relief

after the successful rescue of a teenage soccer team from a floodgate it was an ordeal that grips the world. and france are through to the world cup finals thanks to a one note victory over belgium. second tower goal sending the blues to the championship game they will play out the pro racial or english teams matched up in tonight's other surprise. i'm sumi so much going to thank you for joining us here in germany a court is set to hand down a verdict in the five year trial of a neo nazi terrorist cell accused of the racially motivated killings of ten people over a decade the only remaining alleged member of this right wing extremist group known as the national socialist underground faces up to life in prison the families of the victims feel the trial has failed to answer many questions about the killings

and the perpetrators their lawyers say the trial also failed to examine the mistakes of the security agencies and the murky role of those agencies informants. abdul kareem shem shack is the son of the first to make him he was a child when his father was killed. why did the murderous choose my father i just can't and won't believe it was a coincidence. four hundred thirty seven days of negotiations and this important question has not been answered i can't find closure because i don't feel that everything has been investigated. the victims' families feel that the trial for the first series of racist murders supposed war germany hasn't answered many of their questions.

first my mother was a suspect then my uncle then everyone around us was under constant investigation that went on for a living of years and it was as if my father were the perpetrator rather than the victim and that was reflected across the media with its reporting on the so-called kebab murders of turkish people or allegations of drug related crime according to the press my father was the guilty one and that's how we felt. they had to step it is the main defendant she is thought to be does sole survivor of a three member nazi terror cell over the years that allegedly killed nine migrants and a police officer without coming under suspicion instead for years and thus to get her focus on people connected to victims rather than on members of the neo nazi movement but the trial has barely touched under his failings nor has it examined the road of german domestic intelligence which had contacts in the so-called national socialist underground alongside chat the former and are also accused of

helping the ennis you but victims lawyers said that convinced a group support network was much lodger. we. will go on that. we could say all of the family they say our questions are inspiration to haven't been met we expect from you knew that you use all means that our way to be able to follow on and to go on to search for the truth after sitting through more than five years of this trial most of the victims' families want to keep on fighting for complete clarification. and let's go right to do frank kaufman he's been following this case for years and he joins us from outside the court room where people are remembering the victims hi frank this trial has gone on for five years describe the atmosphere for us now that we're on the verge of a verdict. so i mean this is a very thoughtful atmosphere here not in front of the courthouse in munich you see

a protest against nature not says here behind me and a common moderation for the ten people and their backs to victims' families it's a sad atmosphere because these papers here behind me really try to put the victims and their families and they interests in the center here and this gives a certain touch here in front of the courthouse. frankly mention that you've been covering this trial for years and it's received a lot of attention here in germany also around the world why do you think it's been so significant. it's just the sheer monstrosity of this case you have ten people being killed during a period of seven years from two thousand to two thousand and seven and also the police was only at the ends at a point saying yeah we have to go into investigations concerning racism they were not system and neo nazi terrorism and doing all the time before they were thinking

oh it's my state a case of murder case of and the criminals say and the drugs say no whatever and if you can imagine what that means for families that have to cooperate with the police all the time that are under investigation and they call themselves started to say you know i think that there might be other reasons for that this means that all that period even before the beginning of this cold case this period of investigation did a lot of harm psychologically also to many of these victims' families. and friends but you think the main lesson is that germany can learn from this trial. well what people here behind me discussing i mean it's clear that this is they are presenting more center left position politically here in the country but what they are pointing out is soft obviously police very often in this country. have in

mind. races framing is an issue society like like the german really has to think about and keep in mind. it's the execute if and public offices have this in mind and don't try to find easy answers after the criminal cases in the immigration scene here in the country this is one thing everybody wants to learn out of this the other thing is how in a world of coming populism and right wing populous and what we want to discuss. i think having this case and this this terrorist group in mind how once this is is this the sites we move on from here these are called questions that will have to be discussed off the and off to try to offer the world a kinnock today during his friend kaufman outside the courtroom in munich for us frank thank you very much. now u.s. president donald trump has again lashed out at european partners ahead of

and the mall here in paris after france defeat belgium in the world cup semifinal soccer fans surged up to shanghai we say they are ready for sunday's final either against croatia or england. and we have a limited talking from davis fourth to tell us more about this match high but this was a really tight match tell us more about how it went down it was so it was unfortunately not as open as we expected not as many goals as we would have liked especially when you have one golden generation take on another but as you said it was a very tight match and the difference maker was t.t. and of course a set piece and before we go into the match i have to point out that around forty two to forty three percent of all gold at this world cup have come from set pieces and it was a set piece that also saved the day for france let's take a look. it wasn't until the twenty second minute it's k.g.

seven final sprang to life belgians toby and a viral tonight on the turn a stunning sight from hugo to reese fronts attack next kilian impact pay feeding benjamin providing the thirty eight minutes of vital stuff on t.v. this time the breakthrough arrived early in the second half francais summerland t.t. rose highest and not home and shrunk griezmann scorner in the fifty first minute. nothing called truck could do about that one. fronts turn on the magic to produce one of the game slick his moves shortly after a lucky escape for belgium. the red devils three men forward in the dying moments but left blur held firm under pressure. the delirium of the final whistle the first world cup final appearance for france in twelve years probably show england line wait a heart breaking into the tournament to belgium. the villa from. a limo were you impressed with france's performance must match i mean i have to say

it was a display of stellar defending ferry very impressive and look when you can keep has ought to brian a new kaku at bay you you are doing something right and prances i have to say they don't always pay the most beautiful football just because there's so many gifts that pass on this team but they pragmatics and it is really paying off it was a solid performance they stayed compact and belgium really had no solutions whatsoever they ran out of ideas and that's actually here what some of the pay as a coach as i think about that performance and all that on the i feel so much pride . like we worked a lot for this when we did it together that fills all of us like those who like you want to be i scored the goal but the whole team played well or much we did what we had to do to get to the final it's just you and i'm very proud of everything you want to do in the mall if you feel the cold something. unfortunately what i was the difference is. that the situation was so playing. the game was as you could imagine

very close very chary. he was going to be decided into maybe the one that he could find out if i noted uniforms or we could get a little bit of a look in front of goal so it's. really made you want to ask you know do you think france is now a shoo in to win the title i mean they were favorites from the get go the fact that if reached the final doesn't surprise anybody and as what is it i'm teacher just said this has been like this so many different players contre brooding and pulling their weight i mean the they will be a tough act to beat while the world cup is almost over and it's been a fantastic world cup let's bring in our correspondent emily sure when who is standing by for us in moscow hi i'm good to see you so russia are out of the tournament we all know about now but how big is the interest in the world cup going on right now. well there's still

a huge interest in the world cup. it's really being shown everywhere here in moscow it's being shown in bars restaurants it's even being shown on metro trains so on the subway and people you know obviously have been very emotional throughout this world cup particularly because the russian team got so far you know and you know after they were kicked out extremely emotional i saw people kind of hugging and crying but you know it's perhaps for as indicative of the mood as well that even after the russian team was kicked out there was a huge street party going on here in moscow people came out onto the streets just to celebrate the fact that the world cup is going on in russia and i would say even people who aren't interested in football really are proud to be hosting founds from all over the world where but the other semifinal to microwave what are local saying about that match. well i'd say there's support on for both of the teams perhaps it's surprising to know that there is support for the

english team as well you might remember that there was all this drama in the run up to the world cup first of all there were headlines about the fact that there would be there could be fights between british and russian hooligans people kind of recalled the dramatic images from euro two thousand and sixteen where those from both countries were kind of fighting and people were warning of a third world war between hooligans and of course there was all the tension between moscow and london as well over the poisoning of russians by screwball but there really has been no problem between the two nations at all in fact just the opposite i think russians really like brits so for that reason there is a lot of support for the the british team as well but there have been fewer british fans here supporting their team and the headlines here in russia now ahead of this game today have been kind of gloating you know more british fans should have come

to see our amazing world cup. how do russians feel now that the world cup is drawing to a close this weekend. well the people that i've been speaking to here in the capital really don't want this world cup to end people have been saying that it's an amazing atmosphere a festival atmosphere one woman i spoke to said we want really to keep the world cup we want to keep the fans here we don't want them to leave there has been really a huge sense of freedom here in moscow as well kind of the sense of people kind of taking back public spaces which are usually rather tightly controlled by the author of these here and people i think also there's some cynicism among people who just say basically things are going to go back to the way they were after the world cup ends and all we'll have is kind of cheap merchandise cheap souvenirs that are on sale after all the fans leave but i think people here are certainly glad to have shown a different side to russia to the world or it will it's not over yet alina croatia

england your pick for tonight i'd say fifty fifty creation has more creativity in midfield but we'll have the fresh legs talking from the sports and the emily sure one for us in moscow thank you both very much. to tennis now and remains on course for her first the wimbledon title after booking her place in the semifinals kemper a downed daria cut cino in straight sets to clinch a last four berth against lafayette yell and her victory keeps alive the possibility of an old german women's final on saturday that is because you're there gervase came from behind to beat kiki battens curtis is enjoying her best ever run at a grand slam but it doesn't get any easier she'll need seven time wimbledon champion three no williams in the semifinals. i danielle is here with business and the trade just continues to escalate that's right and some people are even already calling it

a trade war the next round in the american chinese trade conflict now donald trump's administration is getting ready to impose tariffs on another two hundred billion dollars in chinese imports the white house says the new levies are a response to china's counter tariffs which came after america's first round of import duties while they focused on industrial goods to limit the impact on consumers the expanded list of over six thousand products includes everyday items like electric lamps and food like natural asian slams a threat is totally unacceptable and balance from post counter measures. i'm sure you've been counting down the days it's world population day the world's population has doubled over the last half a century and that's having a huge impact on economies around the world overall there are a lot more young people than old which actually provides for fresh opportunities in developed countries like japan that trend reversed

a long time ago the world's biggest economy experienced the baby boom up to the second world war today the average japanese woman gives birth to just one point four children so if you are young people and an aging working population putting stress on the welfare system a quick look at the growth figures in the eighty's will show you what the effects are on japan's economy experts predict a similar situation in other industrialized nations that also have a lot of new workers to support those retiring it's the other way round for developing nations with the highest economic growth rates ethiopia india vietnam and tanzania in these countries parents have at least two children on average western nations with low birth rates like the us germany and japan have much we could. and to talk to us about this now business reporter. joins us now so when it comes to population we're seeing a divergence between rich and poor countries here what does this mean in practical

terms in practical terms as we heard earlier basically there is a huge pressure on state welfare systems in the west the industrial countries in general they have to find another way of making up for the fewer working population that they have all the smaller working population they now have and that is definitely major issue and one way of dealing with that is increasing the retirement age on the other hand of course in developing countries you have more young people i mean the average age in africa is around twenty so you know about half what it is in europe and they have several young people that's not but unity cheap labor of course that helps of course those economies to grow in part it's also a problem though because they have to find jobs for those young people and there's not enough work in those countries even though they are growing and economically speaking so what's the solution to the divide here that we're seeing where we've got rich countries that are having a slow population growth and poor countries where it's increasing well the solution

at least according to the united nations at least today they are highlighting access to family planning so africa especially has a major issue there it has double the fertility rates that the number of children every woman would have so that's about about five for every woman in africa as opposed to two point five that's the global average so that's definitely an issue and that's what they are highlighting access to family planning as a human right so they want to change that and they want to increase that i don't know what it means in concrete terms of that will really change because they've been trying to work on that for years but i mean it's about changing attitudes in society and that's definitely an issue that they have to deal with and briefly what's at stake if we can't effectively control population growth well possibly political instability if you have several. young people can't get jobs it does coles political instability protest and that sort of thing demonstrations people going to the streets and that's not an issue for economically speaking of course

investors want to invest in places that are politically unstable so that might be a disadvantage for africa as well going forward so they def we have to tackle that issue ok significant risks that should ponder thank you very much for an out july marks the peak of some sudan's hunger season the period between the depletion of food stocks and the next harvest seven years into its independence as a humanitarian crisis leaving hoth of the country's population starving. heavy rain can come at any moment during south sudan so-called clean season and distributing food becomes even more of a challenge but it's the ongoing violence that poses the biggest risk to food security. unfortunately the conflict continues people continue to suffer and people in some places where conflict still rages in desperate situation the war has killed tens of thousands of people and displaced

another four million the country's instability is also hurting its economy which is in ruins south sudan's currency has fallen steeply since the conflict broke out five years ago causing prices for goods and services to become extremely expensive and now more than half the population faces hunger. the w f p food assistance is the only means of food for the whole family i live with my mother and i have no brothers i am the one taking care of the entire family when times are hard i walk to faraway places in search of food. last year's lean season left about six million south sudanese without enough food and without any prospect of sustained pace international aid organizations fear a repeat of the widespread hunger this month. now let's get
