this is day eight of the news live from berlin a possible retreat from war ravaged syria russia and turkey agreed to separate demilitarized zone in a live province effectively the leg offensive against the rebel forces dug in that the deal could prevent a major humanitarian crisis also on the program german doctors treating a member of russian activist group pussy riot says it's a highly plausible that he was poisoned taken. off life support and are confident that he will become a. u.s.

president donald trump puts more pressure on china with tariffs on another two hundred billion dollars worth of imports beijing says it will retaliate in kind. of his television's biggest night of the year the seventieth emmy awards on as the best shows and top talent in the world wars for streaming hits as well on a star studded night in los angeles. i'm phil graham welcome to the program leaders of russia and turkey have agreed to establish a demilitarized zone in syria's province it limits the last major stronghold of syria's antigovernment rebels a more than three million civilians a trap that until now it's been almost entirely controlled by rebels and jihad ists but in recent weeks the syrian government backed by russian forces has been threatening an all out. attack. on the opposite side of the conflict fears an

influx of thousands of refugees across its border and what the u.n. says could become a humanitarian catastrophe no details of yet been released about where exactly this safe zone will be established. the promise from ridge of thai air to one and let him have putin it live will be a safe haven they'll be no bitter battle for control of the last rebel held province in syria. hootin an heir to one of agreed to set up a demilitarized zone by mid october they say russian and turkish troops will patrol a buffer strip between syrian government forces and rebels. but. we both agree that implementation of the plan steps will give new momentum to the process of resolving the syrian conflict politically allowing work to intensify an international solution and it will contribute to peace returning to syrian soil.

russia and turkey both have direct strategic interests in syria moscow has strongly backed syria's president bashar assad's regime with troops on the ground but turkey too has intervened in the syrian conflict carving out a zone of influence near its border in recent days turkey has increased its military presence in the region the risk of a confrontation between russia and a nato member over it live grew as fighting increased. a low have you. sense the beginning of the month dozens of people have been killed and wounded in air raids and attacks by the syrian government and the russian air force reports from adlib have been growing increasingly dire. that there's always the sound of war planes and there are attacks on many areas.

people constantly because of the air raids all day and night. now two of syria's major players have pledged an end to the killing in it live but they have to ensure the deal is honored. so will it be. a ha ha ha. between. how are people reacting to the news of this deal. well you have to understand people in the middle of have been bracing for the worst for a massive military isolde by the assad government and its russian allies so now this agreement at least gives them a glimmer of hope because this agreement has delayed such an offensive we are not sure whether it's prevented it entirely but it of course by is some time we have

been talking to former it liberated and sear on the turkish side of the border so people who escaped it lip earlier some years ago maybe because now the border is all fishley closed but these people still have relatives inside it live and they talk to each other and they say this agreement some of them say this agreement is a good move because it will save many many lives but others say they don't really trust it because most of all they don't trust russian president vladimir putin that he will really stick to the agreement so very mixed feelings here on the turkish side of the border when it comes to yesterday's deal and we're seeing quite short of detail who or what is to be protected by the safe side. well we are getting very conflicting information on what is demilitarized or deescalation zone the safe zone will look like some turkish media channel have been

reporting that it's kind of a circle around city that will be monitored by and patrolled by turkish and russian soldiers alike fifteen to twenty kilometers wide other sources say it will be an area that starts here right behind me at the turkish border and then extends into the province but we are getting a very different information here i think so far it's not entirely clear how this demilitarized zone will look like but the plan is to withdraw every heavy military equipment and to make radical militants that what that's what president putin said leave the area but there are many open questions like will these militants relief there are thousands of armed fighters in adelaide will they comply will they leave . briefly what does the decision get out of this agreement.

well to add on seeks to that's what many analysts say as a longer term presence inside syria he wanted such a buffer zone for it since quite a while now he got something like this he wants to be definitely sitting at the negotiating table when serious political future will be decided and when it comes to president putin i think he understood that it's better to have such a compromise a demilitarized zone than an all out military offensive against turkey's will and he got turkey's promise that turkey will act more decisively against a militant islamist militants inside it live and if turkey gets keeps this promise this is something mr putin gets out of this deal and russia still the main backer of the syrian government in this war. on the border between turkey and. meanwhile a russian military jet has been brought down by syrian anti aircraft fire russia

says all fifteen people on board were killed and blames israel for the deaths according to moscow israeli pilots attacking targets in northwestern syria use the jet as a shield so that syrian forces and inadvertently shot down the russian plane near the syrian coastline the russian defense ministry says maneuvers by the israeli aircraft amount to hostile provocation says it has the right to retaliate. now doctors in treating pussy riot member appear to say it's very likely that he was poisoned the russian anti-government activists was flown to the german capital for treatment after he fell ill during a court following a court hearing in moscow. after a fifteen day sentence for a protest on the pitch during a world cup football match doctors say he's still in intensive care but they're confident that he will recover. more from d.w.

chief political adviser mahela welcome michela one of these doctors to believe it was poisoned. well what he suffers from all the symptoms he's showing pointing towards what's called an anti call no objects up now let's get this out of the way first i had never heard this before either what it basically means that it's a symptom of poisoning that there's an interruption of his nervous system and that leads to his pupils being day to and many organs over functioning and this was potentially absolutely life threatening they say he received very vital treatment in moscow where he was in a clinic but then his family of course decided they wanted him transferred to berlin and here he is now still being treated intensively but he could talk although he doesn't seem to be making that terribly much sense the doctors can't really ask him specifics about that particular day on tuesday yet and he seems to

be on the road towards recovery and doctors say that they do eventually expect him to recover fully but that depends on how his body is dealing with whatever is in there. was poisoned does this mean there will not be a criminal investigation well this is to be expected he also is a canadian citizen so this seems to be this is pointing towards really the responsibility of canada to push for that in moscow but certainly that's what should follow for now doctors here are saying that they don't expect that they can conclusively say what exactly that poison was there were allegations from moscow that he might have abused drugs doctors here say that that is very unlikely that would point towards suicidal tendency to this doesn't seem to be anything like a drug overdose which happened inadvertently and the big question now is whether this will become a diplomatic issue in the end that was to be my my next question watching what political reaction. in russia or indeed in canada well certainly

here in berlin there seems to be. no appetite to make any kind of particular statements here the foreign ministry and the talks they were both informed of him being transferred to berlin but they weren't directly involved in this case of a clearly getting the signs that they want to keep it that way. because listen here he watching d.w. news live from prizes from under the noses of the big t.v. networks on a star studded night in hollywood. about some of the other stories making news around the world hundreds of rescuers in the philippines are searching for victims of landslides caused by typhoon man caught in the country's worst affected region the northern town of gone dozens of fear dad after seeking refuge in a gold mine is bunkhouse the national death toll from typhoon mount coty's now announced on more than seventy the storm has also hit hong kong and china.

a defective e.j. on and i think that's a sign to say no if you cooperate if you go on and you know there is ice you know right then you have a right ahead and operate in and help you out also it would not be easy but right now with the situation forced the sanctions are going on and there's not much what they can too. five incredible reporting from seoul los angeles has been hosting the seventieth emmys awards and alongside the actors making the most of them moments on the red carpet some of the biggest stars of the show where the company is shaking up the t.v. business netflix the streaming service the premium t.v. channel h.b.o. battle it out for the highest number of games h.b.o.'s game of thrones won best drama for a time it was also the most award show so good night for british acting talents as well planned for it was named best drama actress for trail of queen elizabeth the seconds in the crowd and matthew reese one of the best drama so for the spy

thriller the americans. have. more on this from just scott's rockstro welcome scott let's start with game of thrones once again a big with this time only two emmys yeah i mean two of the main ones they got a few technical awards which were awarded previously but yeah compared to previous previous wins last year they didn't qualify because they didn't have any episodes that aired in time to be nominated so two years ago though when they did qualify they just swept the awards i don't know i think this year maybe people are starting to think that this series you know a big huge fantasy series obviously very impressive maybe change the face of television but maybe some people are thinking like i am that it's maybe run its course i mean i would say in the parlance it hasn't jumped the shark it's maybe jumped the dragon the series is maybe on the last legs next the final season is coming up maybe this time the emmy committee was looking and saying all right maybe

this season isn't the greatest but for all that game of thrones has done for t.v. for all show us maybe we did still deserves the best the best there. dragons big c. battles half naked people running around it's hard to argue against it hard not to like. what was the real standout this year i'm for me the real santa and the big surprise as well was amazon show. which won best comedy series and five emmys in total the bar was mrs may's oh i don't know ok you've said yeah it's not nearly as popular as game of thrones obviously but did very very well for amazon and the star rachel brosnahan won the best comedy actress and you've seen the show but i can play it briefly it's the fifty's housewife. who gets divorced and then decides to start her luck at a stand up comedy a very lovely sweet show quite funny interesting because it's sort of i see it sort

of as a feminist take on mad men it looks almost the same period but from a female perspective very interesting i didn't expect this to do as well as it did but i'm really really happy for the surprises for me the big surprise was there was no politics this year i mean there were some people on the red carpet who had a few comments but you know where the middle of the trump era this is the first emmys post me to you didn't hear that mentioned at all on stage there was no discussion whatsoever and i think maybe this something to do with the fact that maybe people are a bit exhausted by the politics in the entertainment field or maybe for this award ceremony at least they want take a step back and just have a lot of entertainment show even the want to show that one i mean game of thrones fantasy series marvel's mrs nasal is a sort of misty look back the crown won big that's also a look back at the royal era and so i know we've got enough of reality so you have a bit of escapism a bit of escapism a bit of nostalgia a bit of found say all right scott rush with thank you so i was around the world

because of its new way kids won't buy the players of clapton c.f.c. it's been inspired by the fight against fascism in the spanish civil war and it sparked a frenzy by. a newly founded football club is rising to stardom not because of the sport though their kit has gone viral online demand is so high that they've even stopped taking new orders. the fan owned clapton community football club wants to stand up against fascism and designed the kits specifically to honor this sentiment. to know what they mean in those we've been boy stands for is a very broad principle. the red purple and yellow shirt is inspired by the flag of the second spanish republic whose army fought in the spanish civil war against franco's nationalists the back of the shirt features the slogan no percent on meaning they shall not pass which is used by anti fascist fighters in the one nine

hundred thirty s. . i think it's so i mean of the show coming out had a big factor in its success i think they would have felt so important before the fact that such a big reply such because spawn so they possibly says that people really kind of needed this kind of positive message oh well there are zero power that they might not win the champions league but they've definitely won the hearts of many fans around the world. the space transport company run by entrepreneur musk space x. named its first private passenger to fly around the moon japanese businessman and fashion tycoon my guest from misawa will make the celestial voyage home a drama in a punk band doesn't want to make flight alone he plans to bring six to eight artists and other creatives along with the first luna travelers since the last u.s. apollo mission back in one thousand nine hundred seventy two musters told the trip

i made fourteen step towards enabling access for who dream of traveling to space. for. business use or get. this trade to rouse overstrained the united states and china gets bigger and bigger and bigger that's true for us president has just escalated his trade well slapping his biggest tariffs yet on china the new duties in this league. ten percent will of two hundred billion dollars worth of chinese imports those tariffs. to twenty five percent next year it's a long list of products with a silver lining for tech funds and parents smartphones and baby parts of been exempted from now. the latest salvo in the u.s. this trade war against china would bring around a half of all chinese goods sold to the u.s. under president donald trump's tariff regime and china is in the previous belt of tit for tat is not taking it lying down to flee valid counter attack previously it

said it would impose tariffs on another sixty billion dollars in u.s. exports washington's first round of tariffs which started in july concentrated on industrial goods this time around a wide range of consumer products hard to be taxed effective september twenty four that's left some in china wondering who will really end up paying the price as the world's two biggest economies one up each other. while kerry can you and i are still feeling is that chinese products are cheaper and our products are a better quality but if there are increased tariffs it might cause spending power in the u.s. to decrease so i think for their country it's kind of a loss you know mostly looks like this is going to be end of noble are usually all over the word. this is increased because most of the politicians are thinking about the local people. they are thinking the election point of view but worries are mounting that both countries are losing room to maneuver apart from terrorists already implemented or imminent has also threatened even more punitive taxes on two

hundred sixty seven billion dollars worth of goods should he make good on that threat tariffs would cover almost everything china sells to the united states. so another round of terror. at the frankfurt stock exchange donald trump playing a round how did markets react this time. well the market actually reacted better than you would actually think of course all of this is really seen as a new escalation in the ongoing a trade conflict between the united states and china but when you take a look at the blue chip and exacts we don't really see a big plas here but we are at the moment in the winning though and this is mostly happening because investors were already prepared for this scenario to happen if there's something that investors really don't like are surprises and since everybody was talking about this already yes so they were rather prepared also when

you take a look over to aig or the nikkei index in japan even when they're two s. seven months high and we actually got a very interesting statement today from the german efore in-situ the head of the german institute was stating a little bit earlier that at the end europe and maybe even germany could benefit from all of this because china's a focus in the future is going to be again more about europe and not any more as much about the united states. market reaction on the latest round of tariffs thank you very much ireland has one of the world's big equestrian countries horses and everything connected with them is a billion euro business on the island but brags it is about to hit done business to eighty percent of irish thora breads anschluss sold in the u.k. breeders holes racing companies and twenty eight thousand employees in the industry fear much of the business could be slapped with tariffs. there's always room for

a bit of glamour. here at the leopardstown race course in dublin the horses are warming up. and the bookies are doing stellar business. horseracing is deeply ingrained in irish culture and the industry is worth a lot of money. with an annual turnover of around one point eight billion euros it's an important economic sector for the country but there are fears that briggs it could slow the industry from a gallop to a canter the worst case scenario is that barriers are put up on horses are not allowed to move freely across the border as they are at the moment they have to be subject to veterinary checks or perhaps there is a tariff for a charge for horses to move into the country those twenty five thousand movements of horses every year between britain are in france. resources are often

transported internationally by plane or ship. traditionally there have been close links between the horseracing industries in ireland and in the united kingdom. the overwhelming number of horses that you would find running in the race meeting in england are actually our bread or. so the import and export between art and great britain is absolutely vital to the huge industry that it is and. worldwide ireland ranks number three for thoroughbred horses. a full sired by this stallion called invincible spirit will set you back one hundred twenty thousand euro's breeders around the world bring their mayors to ireland for an encounter. first for example like invincible spare us a lot of the mayors will use the u.k. as a land bridge so if they have to take a lot longer to get to where they need to go to there becomes a risk naturally breeders will decide not to travel and will decide to use the

stallions at home. every year brit spend two hundred fifty million euros on thoroughbreds from their irish neighbors no wonder then that when it comes to freedom of movement many irish are concerned about their horses as well as themselves. reporting. business news here's a reminder of the top stories we're following for you on the leaders of. the greek demilitarized zone and. problems with the delay in the offensive by the syrian government that prevents a humanitarian crisis. german doctor. said it is highly plausible that he was poisoned by russian activist fell.
