biala guest at frankfurt airport cd managed by from. mrs d. w. news live from a spectacular u. turn in washington president trump reverses his views on claims of russian meddling in the u.s. election in helsinki trump said he saw no reason why it would be russia and now he's saying this. person should go see any reason why anymore due to russia.

sort of end up all negative. at the u.-turn comes as trump tries to calm a political storm over his performance in helsinki we'll have analysis for you from washington's five things that bush had to get it also on the program idea after the liberation of mosul from the so-called islamic state we have an exclusive report for you from iraq on efforts to promote reconciliation amid the city's going to follow most of mayor as he pursues it tarski fears will take one hundred communities. and former u.s. president barack obama attracts what he calls the us a loss of shame among political leaders he was speaking at an event in johannesburg marking the one hundredth birthday of south africa's former leader nelson mandela. with. hello and welcome my name is chris. it was spring eight good to have you with us

person tunnel trump has made a spectacular u. turn on remarks he made after monday's health summit with his russian counterpart vladimir putin having previously said he accepted denial of any meddling in the twenty sixteen u.s. elections trump is now saying he does believe the assessment of u.s. intelligence agencies that russia did attempt to influence those elections let me begin by saying that. once again the full faith and support for america's intelligence agencies i have a whole say in our intelligence agencies what's they just told of the life that most of the intelligence agencies. are ok by me except our intelligence community its conclusion that russia is meddling in the two thousand and sixteen election took place could be other people also. a lot of people out there

there was no collusion at all. until trump went on to say that he made a mistake at the summit news conference in helsinki when he said he saw no reason for russia to interfere is newest explanation and a key sentence in my remarks i said the word would instead of one hundred. percent and should have been i don't see any reason why i wouldn't or why i didn't want to be rushing so. just to repeat it i said the word would instead of what he. and the sentence should have been and i thought i would be maybe a little bit unclear on the transcript or unclear on the actual video a sentence should have been i don't see any reason why it wouldn't be russia. sort of a double negative. and just to give you the context of all this here's a reminder of what trump said on monday in helsinki in his statement by the way he

starts by referring to dan coats the director of national intelligence in the us. people came to me didn't go to school with me some of those they said they think it's russian i have president putin he just said it's not russian i will say this i don't see any reason why it would be when i really do want to see. the u.s. president trying to quell a political storm back home our washington bureau chief aleksandra phenomena has been putting things in context for. trans twenty four hour reversal is a sign that the president by the intensity of the backlash he provoked however his attempt to perform damage control is not likely to convince his fiercest critics they're not buying his excuse that he misspoke during his joint press conference with the russian president the top democrat in the senate chuck schumer respondants tweeting it's twenty four hours too late and in the wrong place and more and more

people here in the us find it difficult to believe this president who often lies to justify controversial remarks decisions however it will be crucial how the republican leadership is going to react to trump's backtrack the party's facing a challenging midterm election and they will probably try to avoid a direct confrontation with the president fearing that that could lead to a loss of control in the house and the senate. oh xander phenomenon they're reporting from washington now it's a year since iraqi forces liberated their country's second largest city mosul from so-called islamic state i asked a group of the city for three years with the support of many of its citizens now the struggle to rebuild mosul and the lives of its residents has become in earnest but reconciliation between those who supported i.a.s. and those who didn't is almost impossible task so for the time being those in

charge of concentrating on keeping those two sides apart this exclusive report now from. good there is good none. zero zero zero zero zero zero zero zero aftermath mohammed ramadan is a busy man he's a mixture an elected man whose district can be found among the ruins of western mosul. from his workshop he organizes clearance of rebel and booby traps and is also in charge of food and water distribution the recent past is ever present even in these mundane tasks. that my when there's an assessment for food and somebody says this is the son of an i.a.s. family as i go out there won't be any food for that family. then this guy blames another family who wasn't what i had and so they don't get any food either. you.

have to run man says about half the people in his district supported the i asked some from fear some from conviction. the evidence of what that led to is everywhere in mass graves like this one. you know i have you know my son just wanted to cross the street they shot him in the back he was my only son. so he had six children. up the rock man asks for details tries to comfort her but there's nothing he can do. accusations eat through the community to try to find out what's real and what's not after a man is registering everyone he sends the data to the police military and secret services to be checked against lists of known i asked perpetrators.

those who didn't do anything can stay those who cause problems after the. some of those thought to have worked with i asked are still in the neighborhood. but they're not coming out talk. to graffitti opposite their house is clear i asked we want your blood it says. omar more than can understand such sentiments are snipers killed his nine year old son. shortly afterwards his brother's entire family was killed in a bomb attack. p.i.a.'s family shouldn't be allowed to come back you can't let it happen our dear children so young and now dead and the perpetrators want to come back no no way i think my son and his children will like flowers and my nine year old nephew too i swear to god we didn't hurt anyone

but our whole family was wiped out there are only two of us left. after a rough man doesn't think there can be reconciliation. but it's also clear that the authorities can't simply lock up all of those who worked at the i.r.s. . the problem is that people are thinking about what happened all the time they don't have anything to do we need to give them word jobs which could reformat their minds i think the mind is like a memory stick if you don't raise it properly the grief will return all the time the. reconstruction of the city is slow at the rough man would like more support from the government in baghdad jobs schools infrastructure. reconstruction a society is even slower the phone rings it's not weirdo with an

i asked. she says she wants to return home. even if the family is in the neighborhood accept you i could let you come back but i'm sorry to tell you that the people don't want you here. reconciliation he says will take a hundred years he retreats into his work mending things takes his mind off the huge problems he cannot fix. because i sure they're reporting from mosul in iraq we're going to switch now to some of the other stories making news around the world latin america's leftist leaders have wrapped up a three day conference in havana cuba venezuelan president nicolas maduro lashing out at the united states accusing washington of minting unrest in his country with delegates alter pledged support for daniel ortega as we left wing government in nicaragua which is facing on going on rest. relatives of those killed when

malaysia airlines flight m.h. seventeen was downed over ukraine have marked the disasters fourth anniversary during a ceremony in the netherlands each relative read out the names and ages of their deceased family members two hundred ninety eight people were killed when the plane was shot down by a russian my. international investigators have blamed pro russian. well former u.s. president barack obama has used a speech in south africa to call on people to resist the rise of political strongmen in an apparent reference to populist leaders across the world speaking at a tribute to nelson mandela on the centenary of the former south african leaders birth obama talked about what he called the utter loss of shame among political leaders he urged people to emulate mandela despite uneven progress in south africa since his time in office. most blacks in south africa live in townships

like this one. a facilitator is hoping that barack obama's visit here will show the world that south africa is still a developing country that feeling of yes we can it was like more t.v. deal everybody to give or you can. use the same applies to nelson mandela was around ten thousand people listened to obama's speech in a stadium in johannesburg. the tickets were free affairs managed to get one fellow came to embody the universal aspirations of this possessed people all around the world. their hopes for a better life. by many here affair says obama is a man after his own heart especially when he speaks about dashed hopes. it is a plain fact that racial discrimination still exists in both the united states and

south africa that the accumulated disadvantages of years of institutionalized the pressure have created yawning despair. and that says inequality has to be eliminated once and for all he hopes that obama uses his political clout to help south africa achieve the. well as south africa marks the mandela it's worth pausing for a moment to remember his extraordinary life a life that changed of course not only his nation but politics around the world born in one thousand nine hundred when south africa was still a british colony mandela rose to prominence when he joined the african national congress back in one thousand nine hundred eighty three he began travelling all over south africa speaking out against apartheid until nine hundred sixty two when police arrested him he was then sentenced to life in prison on charges of sabotage twenty seven years later. for part child was

a ball he remained active in public life until his death in twenty thirty and. there's little doubt about nelson mandela's contribution to south africa but the nation today has many troubles including a high proportion of people without jobs with few prospects for the future of the freedom mandela fought for as little to offer the young generation. so wetter south africa a township to the seas way cosy still calls home he's part of the first generation of children born in the hopeful years after apartheid but the rainbow nation nelson mandela dreamt of is far from reality he says different from your nation is availability of drugs everywhere in the story today yeah definitely a lot of crime lot of it that's all in one nation as well. so many young south africans say they've had enough of the myth of mandela.

they may have the freedom he fought for but what use is that they are sick without a job or prospects. people say to guys all outmanned everybody says that. they can states true so yes people have lost their land in the war and. the lender still with the people who took it and stuff so. i don't know can it be fixed can somebody fix it. not everyone has lost their optimism cliff it is a student of political science in johannesburg i thinks it. is still. something of a symbol of peace in the conciliation i think and he was an excellent statesman

more than that he represented what it was to simply just be a good person and i think that's the reason it's with the youth as the child of a college mother and white father kaley clifford personifies the reconciliation mandela fought for. a member of south africa's young well educated elite she's able to take advantage of the opportunities in this country. but cliff it is aware that not everyone has benefited from mandela's legacy i don't know whether it did enough to interest so those who commit some criticism of the heart of society and i think that's probably why we find ourselves in the situation mightily when the use is still very angry at least a lot of resentment and sort of tension pumping beneath the surface. and and issues of race lost ordinary sense it's only. in silhouette or some people have stopped in gauging with politics entirely to decease way cosy and his friends say politicians

are only interested in winning votes. so they've taken the task of change making into their own hands on a street corner they've built a small youth club with a skate track and vegetable garden where people i felt i was to are all being echoed through our own environment where we have this record of all you have to name just wild west you have what you want i really makes it a job where there was just through everything i know that we can do our own thing. to listen this way and his friends may have lost faith in politics and in the legacy mandela left behind and yet they've demonstrated here that individuals of whatever background can together still bring change. after a day's break on the tour de force the riders were back on their bikes for stage chain yesterday for the men to the mountains for the first time frenchman judio

see for german tennis. some excellent footwork there but it's business with monica jones. the turkish economy and what we just heard at the end of this report future looking rosy not necessarily the case with the turkish economy christopher the turkish plunging inflation is soaring well normally a classic scenario for a rate hike but not on the turkish president recha type other one since his reelection. he has moved to cement his control over the economy claiming the exclusive power to appoint central bank rate seto's and naming his son in law to oversee economic policy the lira already under strain has since taken a further beating with investors fearing free market forces being suspended and autocracy. reports from istanbul. the price of onions has quadrupled potatoes and tomatoes are also far more expensive than they

were a year ago turkey is in the grip of spiraling inflation and everyone seems to be feeling the effects. on the c.b.c. if we can't afford the things we need we can't go on holiday we have to limit ourselves unfortunately. president directed thai air to one has promised his people a glowing future but he says he needs to consolidate his power to make it happen it's controlled now extending even over the central bank some analysts say they're living in an autocracy. of the far. east to. the freedoms. and the simplest solution. heir

to one influence of the central bank has accelerated the turkish lira depreciation global investors have been pulling their money out of the country for months sending the lira tumbling twenty five percent against the dollar since the start of the year that it's made imports more expensive. this is crazy. this is a very misty. morning. to work growth tops the list of arid ones priorities so he's shying away from further interest rate hikes that in turn promotes inflation a vicious circle that's affecting a lot of turks some economists just that the lira is turkey's last remaining opposition party has. sent us this report and she joins us now in istanbul. type everyone promises grows but reality

looks very different only recently fitch downgraded to turkey's credit worthiness from your perspective how bad is it. well growth figures are not telling the fool's story turkey was cut deep into junk territory by fitch ratings because the country's current account deficit is widening the turkish lira is plunging and inflation is at a record high with fifteen per cent so prices are increasing for households and businesses alike and these are the figures that people can really feel in their daily lives many people i talk to here are extremely frustrated they complain about everything getting more expensive from food to fuel on the employment is also high but if you ask most to add on the economy is just on the right track he also says that he doesn't want to hear about criticism from international credit rating agencies to the contrary he promised to make turkey one of the ten largest

economies in the world and he believes the way to get there is by him taking more control over the country's monetary policy and now after his reelection he has a sweeping new powers to do so but analysts investors say this is basically a market hostile economy approach and if turkey follows this path it might face as severe economic crisis soon and might even have to knock at the i.m.f. store and ask for help now turkey's transition into a state has certainly kept foreign investment at bay for quite some months now how do you think. could regain trust which obviously is necessary. well that's the big question now certainly his approach to take more control over the monetary policy of the central bank is so achieving right now quite the opposite it's also his decision to appoint his son in law mr. relatively

an experienced politician politician as ministry as minister of treasury and finance so basically as the chief economist has not gone down well with the markets mr abbott is replacing name and shame shake an investor friendly former merrill lynch chief economist who was a very trusted expert in his field so now the big question is will missed out on his new team why they are promising to rick rebalance the economy and to decrease inflation will they really be able to manage this fragile economy and manage to regain trust with foreign investors. reporting from us from istanbul thank you so much. european regulators getting ready to find google several billion euros for abusing its dominant market position later today the european commission has accused the company of requiring mobile phone manufacturers to pre-install its search engine browser as
