this is t w news coming to you live from berlin a diplomatic breakdown between the u.s. and north korea the u.s. military says it may resume war games on the korean peninsula that's after president trump agreed to drop the trails of his june summit with north korea's leader is this the end of the call of the relations between the two countries also coming up pain in the streets in the wake of violent car right protests in the city of chemists in germany grappling with the rise of white point populism. and saying
12:01 pm
goodbye to the queen of soul d.w. goes to detroit to meet. the franklin lining up to pay their last respects at the museum where her body is lying in state. hello i'm terry martin good to have you with us in a surprise turnaround the u.s. military says it may reestablish joint military exercises with south korea the war games had been a major sticking point in the run up to u.s. president trump's historic summit with north korea's leader kim jong il and after that summit trump called his military commanders off guard by agreeing to drop the drills the reversal now by the pentagon comes amid a broader breakdown in diplomacy over north korea over its nuclear weapons. and historic handshake between two former foes. in the months before their singapore
12:02 pm
summers donald trump and kim jong un traded insults and threats of nuclear war but the leaders pulled back from the brink to deliver a diplomatic spectacle and an unexpected concession from the u.s. . we will be stopping the war games which will save us a tremendous amount of money on lashon until we see the the future negotiation is not going along like it should. the u.s. military exercises with south korea have infuriated p.r. nyang for decades trumps decision to suspend them surprised both u.s. allies in the region and top u.s. military officials critics said he was handing kim a major symbolic victory without getting any concrete commitments that north korea would denuclearized since june so most trumps diplomatic gamble has delivered some modest returns young has returned what it says are the remains of u.s.
12:03 pm
troops killed in the korean war it is also put its nuclear missile tests on hold though the un's atomic watchdog says it's still developing nuclear weapons and it's the lack of progress on that front that could wind relations back to the animosity that characterized the early months of trump's presidency career. there are regularly were threats to the united states. they will be met with fire of fury. like the world has never seen. last week trump acts plans for his secretary of state to travel to north korea saying i feel we are not making sufficient progress with respect to the denuclearized nation of the korean peninsula and now the u.s. military has hinted is will resume its war games with the size. we took the step to suspend several of the largest exercisers as
12:04 pm
a good faith measure coming out of the singapore summit we have no plans at this time to suspend any more exercisers. both trump and kim like to raise tensions when it suits their interests the question now is whether they'll ditch diplomacy and return to the bring. let's bring in korea analyst adan call foster carter now who joins us from eggs that are in the u.k. in the u.s. has suggested they may restart large scale military exercises with south korea what do you make of that well it is about sign as as you suggested at the same time as in the quote from president trump the suspension. one sided yet a rather surprising suspension that we had of this what would have been the some us exercises was always conditional only denuclearization process talks going well not
12:05 pm
going well korea hasn't really conceded anything at the moment so not really a surprise that said nothing is imminent the next major exercises would be in march and april so there is plenty of time to put the train back on the track before the end which i very much hope will happen so this is clearly a step back and diplomacy between the u.s. and north korea where does this leave relations between the u.s. and south korea. in a difficult place also because it's important to be aware that while the u.s. and north korea is obviously a very key new relationship good or bad of the nuclear issues over some most important issues these are not the only things going on there's also a little criminal get sentences with china prior to a bracket not for this purpose but it all started with south korea and with north korea's outreach to south korea for the olympics and really south brisbane the kind of go between south korea currently under not the central government that believes
12:06 pm
in engaging rules pretty much across many conservatives do believe and now move jay and of south korea he's supposed to be going to coming out full of summit in september that's going to be pretty difficult now so it's kind of hope but there are some in washington who think south korea's getting out of line i reject that you i think south korea oversea is uniquely placed because of the tragic division of the country and i think there are a lot of to see there any gender and a basic you know my what i think the op the signal or an agenda so it's all getting a bit tricky so we also have another announcement from the u.s. on friday washington also abruptly canceled a planned trip to north korea by secretary of state mike pompei or north korea has warned that the talks are at risk of falling apart is the peace process unraveling . it is slightly on the raveling i mean the problem all along was that trump signed up to a remarkably sin document again rather like the north and south korea comment on the correction which has some very concrete things in it until it seems to believe
12:07 pm
that this was an off and everybody was set suggesting that maybe this wasn't enough i do think that north korea if they want both sides are going to put a lot invested in it as loss of face with kim goldman and the trumps if it doesn't go ahead a bit north korea at this point is at risk overplayed its hand definitely they need to see the phrase of dennis rodman's come back to the member of the do me a solid. into something substantial needs to be done. just so much a fair analysis that was career analysts and foster carter there speaking to us from exeter in the u.k. . i think. well here in germany politicians are searching for answers in the aftermath of violent protests in the city of chemist's the arrest was triggered by the fatal stabbing of a german man allegedly by two migrants from iraq and syria scenes of protests giving nazi salutes and attacking people they took for foreigners have created chalk waves beyond germany the un's high commissioner for human rights has now also
12:08 pm
sharply condemned the events of the past few days saying politicians need to come out in unison against xenophobia. violence. hate speech. and illegal justice these scenes have touched of national debate in germany far right groups taking to the streets of candidates insisting the city belongs to them not foreignness. media from sunday shows what appeared to be vigilante attacks in kenya it's targeting people believed to be foreign us. but. i don't know what. chancellor angela merkel has condemned the violence to stop plots some of them coming no place a no street for these kinds of unrests should the state of saxony need help to uphold the rule of law then the federal government is ready to support saxony
12:09 pm
regarding this issue. of. the fatal stabbing of a german citizen over the weekend sparked the n.t. migration protests police have apprehended two men one from iraq another from syria over the stabbing now officials are also investigating several participants in the protests for giving the hitler salute a punishable offense in germany. germany's political leaders are facing questions about what can be done about extremist sympathies in the country the problem of right wing extremism has to be on the top agenda of the government in six in the meaning that we have to find ins programs. fighting for democracy daily daily daily programs and we have to finance a police. but germany's foreign aid party says the stabbing encampments and the anger that followed highlight the failures of the country's current approach to
12:10 pm
migration is if you can follow this is a nationwide story that happened in cabinets but as one can see during emotions everywhere in germany and on both sides it is evident that the political class has failed here this is all from gloomy for now can needs and the state of saxony remain on edge further protest organized by right wing groups are planned for later in the week. spring in here our political correspondent who joins us from our parliamentary studios right wing extremist right wing extremism is not new in germany as we all know politics but yield to take it seriously and yes again it's the state of saxony that's very much making headlines with right wing extremist incidents and let's not forget that the anti immigration movement peter was also found it in the state of saxony and there of the few other incidents also there is so many people are asking did something go wrong in the transition from the east german communist system to the more open society democratic system in the one nine
12:11 pm
hundred ninety s. did people maybe not understand the advantages of an open society this is something that people are asking and others saying that the conservatives aren't seeing underestimated the challenge and we're seeing it but it's also something that's happening on a national level that the far right of the party with its until immigration stance that they are also seeing massive gains and they're very much going against this ungrammatical has been extremely outspoken against right wing extremism in if you usually way for her to be so open about it let's hear what she had to say. it's this enough times i'm stuck in the night from saturday to sunday a man was killed thankfully two suspects have been arrested already. and this isn't that was a horrible incident because sympathy on my sympathy goes out to the relatives of the victim and second what we saw afterwards is something that has no place in
12:12 pm
a state under the rule of law so there is video footage of a mob of hate on the streets this has no place in a state under the rule of law. let me underline that. this kind of the kish. chancellor merkel there emphasizing the rule of law in germany immuno some say the democratic principles that the chancellor is underlining there are being called into question or the commits incidents symptomatic of a wider phenomenon in germany not just of germany also in eastern european countries like hungary or we see this anti immigration stance in countries like italy here in germany we have the a.f.d. and if you look at the latest polls there are state elections coming out next year in portland regions in eastern germany and at the moment it looks like the f.t. stands to see massive gains you know thank you so much our political correspondent
12:13 pm
nina there. let's catch up on some of the other stories making news around the world today police in the philippines are hunting two men suspected of planting a bomb that killed two people on tuesday the attack struck a market in the salon in the country's south so-called islamic state claimed responsibility. flooding in the south korean capital seoul has killed at least one person after heavy downpours in the wake of typhoon soulik more than sixty people were evacuated around south korea local media reported that seven hundred buildings were flooded. and british and french fishing boats have clashed over the normandy coast in a dispute over scallops french fishermen are only allowed to collect the shellfish from the first of october to preserve stocks but british face no such restrictions led to a flotilla of around thirty five french boats attempting to see all their british

competitors. authorities in the german city of these budden have removed a four metre tall golden statue of turkish president russia type two on the art installation was intended as a protest against anyone but divided local residents putting organizers of the local art festival on the back foot. this gigantic statue in the center of the spot and was meant as an expression of criticism against the turkish president and his authoritarian form of government the director of the v. spot an art festival sees ott as a means to provoke debate as. they certainly appropriate to conceive of that as a controversial thing. we're allowed to discuss freedom here in this country it's very regrettable that's not allowed in other countries but here we can have a discussion about this stuff. but some locals feel of the ironic statute could fuel conflict in their community and provoke the turkish government
12:15 pm
more. i don't think it's ok if you ask me it's not it's a provocation and it damages the good relationship between turks and germans did. this at yvonne supporters saw the statue as a tribute to his hero prompting a heated exchange with a critique of the turkish president. and you know everyone has their own opinion which they are entitled to voice and i'm avoiding mine mine of mine and that's kind of my this isn't an opinion it's a provocation this is a man who has hundreds of people on this conscience why. why. why he's got people on his conscience because he lied his way he's a dictator and i'd picked up toys to them how can you believe. in the end the debate proved a little too much for the local authorities the statue has been removed with the city council deciding it couldn't provide the security needed to keep it safe. some

sports news now germany national football coach team coach is addressing the media in munich at this moment there are some live pictures it's the first time he's faced media questions since returning from the world cup germany crashed out in the group stage of the world cup you may remember as defending champions but the german football association which gave a contract extension just before the tournament started said we keep him as coach again you're looking at live pictures of that press conference is taking place right now in munich with german national soccer teams coach and joining me here in the studio to talk about this is my colleague max. so what have we learned so far from this president. sort of he's basically taken his through the reviewing process that they have off the world cup as you rightly pointed out his contract was extended before and then the faith was kept in him after the disastrous tournament
12:17 pm
now since then we had a big statement. in the german f.a. saying that they would go back and basically self criticize and look into their mistakes and live as so far address that little bit he thought of his press conference was saying we all underperformed himself his stuff and just play is that they deserve to go out but he believes that he can turn the ship around and says he contacted several senior players in coming to his conclusions off of the world cup seeing of trying to get their input as well and one thing he has said so far is that is biggest mistake was believing that the possession based game that they adopted off to the twenty fourteen world cup really was the way to go and he has now conceded that he thinks that was the wrong choice that they should have found a balance between counter-attacking and possession based game which brought them to success in twenty fourteen but he felt that opposition teams would sit back and therefore they would have to only play possession based game he says that's his
12:18 pm
biggest mistake so strategy being to blame for what happened there in in russia the world cup and not psychology which many people have associated with what else can we expect to have to talk about today well i definitely think he may look into letting go two key figures of his backroom stuff you can tolerate is seventy years old he was when the scout evidence live took charge of the team but he's been blamed for shortcomings when it came to scouting the opposition namely the teams they lost against mexico in south korea and also as assistant tomas schneider he looks to be getting the chop nothing has happened so far and i certainly expect him to be asked about. who was of course after the world cup came out and said he felt scapegoated and discriminated against following previously before the tournament taking a picture with turkish president wretch of type two on exactly that whole racial discrimination issue in the aftermath of the world cup of course we do have our
12:19 pm

12:20 pm
a superstar. for me to be here and i grew up listening to meet the franklin material listening to the franklin and the fact that she's come to carry it it is just an honor she's a home town girl we love it she's the queen she was an app. for . that. we appreciate everything that she brought to this city to scout and gave to the world and never forget where she came along this is why we're here today franklin is lying in state here at the right museum of african-american history in downtown to try to. despite her worldwide fame she always maintained a strong connection to her hometown and lived here until her time. here in the heart of detroit people have been waiting in line overnight to pay their final respects to the queen of song people came from as far away in chicago and even new
12:21 pm
orleans and alabama as a real festive atmosphere here is her music is playing on a loop while people wait and everyone has a story of how she and her music touched not elaborate i was raised on a week of using becoming. part of my family her music touches everybody in her country it gave us hope when we didn't care for her to give people hope she twisted as she slipped out you know. that's what i did and i love this so much that she heard someone say she's an icon. the making is the leaders she. should get the film she. told herself. it's indisputable that aretha franklin had a global impact. she was a legend in her own time and detroit was proud to claim her as its own. new north american trade deal is in the making but it still is
12:22 pm
a key player to get on board crystal that is right terry that key player being canada and negotiations whether the country will join a fresh north american free trade agreement resume later today the atmosphere during the initial talks in washington was described as optimistic but there are pitfalls kind of this prime minister so far insists on keeping terrorists that are meant to protect the country's dairy farmers u.s. president trump says these tariffs must go now there's a lot at stake here mutual trade between the united states canada and mexico total more than a trillion dollars after the u.s. and mexico reached a preliminary agreement signed kind of the two but soon be on board. what's. really leave the well at least you would leave. it to that next. significant question. it seems that there.
12:23 pm
are. easy steps. are these values. into canada and united states at this time that their jobs. statistics the comedian prime minister said he would only sign a deal that was good for kind of debt but he praised the progress that was being me . we're pushing hard to conclude an agreement that is win win with a modern and progressive agreement that is in line with our values and our ambitions and that will benefit not only canadian businesses but all canadians u.s. treasury secretary steven minutiae in the believes an agreement with could come later this week he said the talks have met many of the community has demanded is working with me and are trying to work minute this is a complicated agreement there's lots of things in here or whole new i would think
12:24 pm
again it would be very much on board with stronger intellectual property a stronger protections modernizing the agreement so i'm hopeful that the open issues with canada can be resolved. without a deal to us present almost trumpets threaten to impose tariffs on canadian made vehicles but that could weigh on the automotive sector on both sides of the border because the neighbors rely heavily on each other's parts if talks with canada wrapped up by the end of this week trump only plans to seek approval from congress for the bilateral deal with mexico. now clemens who is the president of the e four institute one of germany's biggest economic research institutions earlier i asked him if there were any lessons to be learned for europe from these ongoing negotiations regarding a potential trade deal with the united states. good morning yes there are lessons i think the first lesson is that the u.s. is turning to us bilateral deals and away from macho leftward agreements that
12:25 pm
makes things more difficult we see that canada is now in a more difficult situation so u.s. trade policy is becoming even more strategic and europe needs to be cow for all of the other thing is trade deal means opening up european markets as well and opening up markets in sensitive areas in particular agriculture so these will be difficult negotiation about negotiations but the good news is we are talking about free trade robin talking about increasing tariffs. who's head of the evil economic research institute now poor results in doubling share prices germany's big banks are in trouble one of the problems that experts say the banking giants have dragged their feet on the face of digitalisation and now financial tech startups are giving them a run for their money the tech challenge is the focus of a banking conference in frankfurt this week france likes words they they hope to find potential solutions to get the big banks back up to speed. now let's get more

from our markets man paul britt standing by a different for a stock exchange falls germany's second largest bank amounts one could even be ousted from the dax index and be replaced by one of its new competitors from the tech sector how do we come about how do we get to that point. yes chris of that decision it seems very likely it's up next week and that would be a strong sign of the demise of the german banks that isn't just happening now that's been happening for a while because effectively the german institutions have been sleeping through digitalisation and not focusing on that now small fast companies like wire card which is likely to replace correspond are rising they're focused on e-commerce on credit card payments and mobile payments and they're now the new stars unfold with all that stiff headwind from new players on the market how do banks want to address this growing competition. the banks are behemoths their huge
