nineteen. not for god w.'s november focus. of. this is d. w. news a live from above in a caravan of migrants enters from mexico on its way to the united states ignoring the warnings from president trying to stay away crowds have broken through the border from guatemala overwhelming police president trump is trying to cut our way to any country that allows the migrants through mexico is appealing to the united nations to intervene also on the program. the killing of

a powerful police commander sent shock waves through afghanistan and casts a shadow over parliamentary elections this weekend as general abdul razzaq is laid to rest a voting in kandahar province is suspended. the european union's top court orders warsaw to reinstate supremum court judges who have been forced into retirement me e.u. says poland's new law which triggered mass protests you see it is a threat to judicial independence. and in football and munich so i had office comes out swinging at the press a fierce attack against a german major in extraordinary press conference we'll hear why christie criticizing journalists for the way they treat their players.

i'm phil gal welcome to the program. thousands of central american migrants have broken through guatemala's border with mexico as they had no clue to the united states they set off from honduras last weekend in the last few hours some of them are reported to have torn down a border gate to get to a bridge between guatemala and mexico mexico has called for assistance from the united nations as tensions with washington escalate over this crisis. president to trump out a warning for mexico and the guatemalan migrants i just want to thank the mexican government because they're stopping it hopefully before it ever gets to. was here now i'm willing to send the military to defend our southern border if necessary. well let's let's bring in david lewis washington correspondent to mush way to welcome maya it was bad enough when the american government was locking up

migrants children other really going to send soldiers to shoot at tired hungry people. well this is something that donald trump loves to talk about when he's at these big rallies that he's giving all over the country right now because of the coming midterm elections which is really just this umbrella hanging over everything and really defining everything that's happening in u.s. politics right now this is something that trump can very much point to as part of his. immigration policy his foreign policy from the beginning of his campaign or one of the biggest points of his campaign was building this wall with mexico and now he has this caravan and others like it that he can point to and say see this is why we need this is also very much changing mexican politics we should say we have a change over a power that's going to be happening in mexico shortly and while the current president is saying he wants to work with the united states on issues like this the incoming president is saying no we're not going to let the u.s.

we're not going to do the dirty work of the u.s. for that they have to do it themselves so this is a valving problem that doesn't look like there's an end in sight and it's going to be changing the policies of both these countries very strongly to come. with midterm elections on the way mexico certainly sees is aware of that backdrop i mean clearly not taking president trump's threats too seriously is the foreign minister louise video good eye. view nineteen states is in the middle of an election campaign in less than three weeks time there are elections and i believe that we must away you know those types of declarations and we need to put them into context on cannot give them greater importance. so much picking up on your earlier point that it could be that these events are actually helping president trump. well as we said this is definitely something he can point to and this is definitely going to become

a talking point as we get closer and closer to these elections because the sorts of images that we're seeing of people rushing the border very much bolster this narrative that he likes to promote of people invading the country and supports his his immigration policy of needing to take the country back and keep people like this out and now he's also made comments about needing to fix the southern border that we have a horrendous immigration policy that needs reform and this is something that democrats actually do agree with republicans on the immigration in the united states the immigration policies need reform but it's a huge difference of opinion that's exactly how these things need reform and issues like this just apply more pressure to policy these situations and these types of policy is much weight in washington thank you. afghanistan has public entry elections tomorrow but the event is being overshadowed by the killing of one of the country's most powerful security figures come to how

police chief general abdul a reserve act was buried on friday he and two others were killed in a gutter one attending a high level security conference to death scud was a blow to the western backed government and raise questions over stability in the south of afghanistan voting in kandahar province has been postponed for a week so the uncertainty surrounding afghanistan's elections candidates have plenty of reasons to worry one of them is an afghan american who was born and raised in the united states but she's undeterred and now she's complaining for change. miriam solomon kell is not a typical candidate but she sees her mix of american upbringing and afghan family traditions as an advantage in a modern afghanistan that's looking for change. that could she elders are standing behind me and every time i sit with them they tell me that the men weren't able to bring these changes but we have faith that women are women are able to feel our

pain and see. the corruption and see what's wrong she takes us along on her campaign trail to jalalabad here she meets with the local leader of her tribe the kuchi they are nomads for whom a certain number of seats in parliament are reserved as a circle langkow has a good chance of being elected to tribal elders are dissatisfied with the male opponents who they see as only looking after their own personal interests in contrast salamanca listens to cooties are often discriminated against in afghanistan and have little opportunities to advance socially. but the ones who don't have schools they don't have water they don't have roads on one hand they're being killed by the taliban and used as shields and on the other hand the government accuses them of being taliban so they're stuck in between two rocks jalalabad lies in the east of afghanistan where the taliban still stage attacks when merriam's of the main colors here she brings a bodyguard with her she's already received many threats if i said i wasn't afraid

i would be lying i am afraid but i am more afraid for these people who are coming and visiting me. so the main cowboy says her support for the direct peace talks currently being negotiated between the us and the radical islamists even if the talks could lead to the taliban partially coming to power in afghanistan i think that now that women are included in the peace process it's really a big step but at the same time i think that the taliban from what i hear realize that women in inclusive it in the government is really important for afghanistan in the future. and even if she doesn't win the election salamanca wants to stay in afghanistan instead of returning to the u.s. she says regardless of the outcome there's much work yet to be done. let's take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world at least fifty nine people are dead after a high speed commuter train ride into a large crowd at a festival of the northern indian city. okla t.v.

been living in the united states writing for the washington post he was a public critic of the saudi government. a friend of the missing journalist told how he had angered saudi authorities when he said to me that the saudis or the or thirty's in saudi arabia had treated him as if he had shot a member of the royal family and a fled saudi arabia but he moved without restrictions. as gruesome details circulated in turkish media over his shock he's alleged murder his family and friends ensure an agonizing wait for answers for the european union's top court has ordered poland to suspend its forced retirement of judges calling it a threat to judicial independence hall and right wing governments as though the age of retirement of judges from seventy to sixty five in a move that critics say is aimed at replacing them with those supportive of the current regime the european court of justice says all judges who have lost their

jobs under the ruling must now be reinstated poland says it will appeal. the controversial law had already come into force here at the country supremes court in warsaw many of the twenty seven newly appointed judges began their work just days ago from the e.c. j.s ruling holt's the forced retirement of judges with immediate effect and reverses the retirement of those already forced to leave their posts. speaking in brussels the polish prime minister said warsaw would consider its response. but the justice minister signaled poland would accept the ruling. as received we are part of the european union and we will respect the e.u.'s laws so far i only know about this ruling from media reports that we will analyze the decision and then make a statement poland is a strong member state of the e.u. and we will honor. the president of poland

supremes court to gas doff refused to step down when the government tried to force her to retire. passively i'm pleased that we've been had but i'm not pleased about the fact that my country's government didn't do this sooner and we had to take them to the european court case. it is now up to the government in warsaw to implement the court's ruling. let's get more on this from veronica prism much coach who's program director of the european academy berlin she's an expert on transformation processes in central and east european countries and welcome to d.w. . poland alone as a result until huge four judges it sounds innocuous enough why is it so controversial actually because of two reasons the first one is that with this reform. of the constitution of. the period of working off the president of the constitutional court which of the supreme court which was written in the

constitution has been shortened which is actually quite clearly against the constitution that's the present number one and the second was that there was a possibility for the jazzers to stay longer in office until seventy but this was only possible after the positive decision of the president which means that the independence of judiciary has been let's say taken has been diluted and this was actually the reason why the what a european court of justice decided to immediately stop this reform and to say freeze everything down and say we cannot go like this because. independent judiciary is a basic of every european democracy so it cannot touch that this is an interim ruling as i understand there's. poland likely to accept it there's no appeal beyond easyjet is a no no this is only that said the interim decision until you know it's like in every cards you need to have some time to have to fool information or fool

explanation off the decision so this just a disciplined nation will be done in the next few weeks. i do not think that there will be other decision and they say yes you are your rights poland cannot appeal from this so we can be sure that this decision will be made ballot what happens it poses no. do you think poland would do it i think there were there was more say well we are absolutely unhappy with this maybe you know put it down nowadays because now we have elections on the local level in the next two days and then another repetition in the next two weeks so they will maybe put down a little bit just talks for the moment for the time of political elections but later on there will somehow had to lead on and had to keep to the decision otherwise they have to pay a lot of money which. for a cause which i took us into will be ready to do this plays into

a wider dispute between poland european union poland this is now being subject to article seven i think it is or proceedings in the within the e.u. how does one affect the other well this is this i think there is there is like a poet play between poland the polish right wing governments and of course the european union and also some other of the majority of the european states the question what is democracy what is rule of law what can i do within my country borders the world's rules do i have to stay. too and why not since we also have a discussion now adays in poland i fundamentally saying that stan might be so that's there is no supremacy of the national. under the european law but the otherwise which means the european would be. the ultimate. would would not be the ultimate or other to but i think these are all the

discussions you know trying to. maximize the power in poland nowadays we will have in the next two years every six months elections we will have now local elections we'll have european elections in may and parliamentary elections then presidential election we have to say there is a lot of us politics i thought it was about you know getting the power and getting stay out thank you so rich that was very clear a lot of prescribed coach thank you thank you very much. this is state of the news live from berlin still to come by and munich bosses take you to viking to the german media in a press conference we'll hear why they're criticizing journalists for criticizing their players. for having a alligator says here with the business curse word of the auto industry diesel takes another hit their stride in not only the curse ford but also

a very well known car brand here in germany phil german authorities are forced to to recall seventy three thousand diesels worldwide they are fitted with devices that alter emission levels and test situations cheating like folks are did it's all part of the fallout from the diesel gate scandal opel has already voluntarily retrofitted twenty three thousand vehicles a carmaker was recently acquired by france's p.s.a. from its long time owners general motors. and on a similar note german car maker diameters own diesel gate scandal is costing it a lot it's lowering profit forecast for the same. time this year the maker of mercedes benz cars says the costs of a recent recall of seven hundred seventy thousand diesels in europe means earnings will be significantly below last year's profits dime the first lowered its forecast just four months ago saying new tariffs on cars and exports to china from the united states would cut into profits.

and earnings are on the agenda in new york as well let's bring in our financial correspondent there. yes frankfurt investors are bearish about the earning season how's it looking in new york. well here on wall street so far so good most companies so far could beat estimates of analysts we got during the week some pretty good numbers from the banking industry where we had netflix with a much higher subscriber growth than expected and then here on friday we had procter and gamble profiting from its beauty business that stock just on friday is up by a good eight percent american express being the second biggest winner in the dow jones industrial average they had a record that stock traded to the upside by almost four percent without those two called great companies. probably it would have been lower for the day and if we

look at the week here we did see some pressure especially and to get knowledge of shares but for the dow jones industrial average off this three week a week so we had a slight plus for the first of for the past five trading days but here's the really big show gets going next week what's expected. you know that's when the fun really begins especially if you look at the technology industry we will get numbers from microsoft from alphabet the parent company from google from amazon from intel just to name a few and in the past two or three weeks we saw tremendous selling pressure on technology companies so it would be important for those to be earnings estimates by quite a bit and also give a rosy outlook but we also got numbers from companies like boeing ford harley davidson caterpillar just to name

a few where we could see what impact we might see from higher commodity prices from tariffs on steel and from higher dollars saw it is going to be pretty much a make or break week for wall street and you'll be there to tell us all about it thank you very much scott on wall street and have a good look at it. for a long time the portuguese city of fourth all had been sleeping in the shadow of the capital lisbon but things have changed the property boom in portugal has reached the port city too and revitalized the construction sector which is one of the country's biggest employers foreign investors are snapping bargains locals fear rising rents. shows us how her street is changing. one house after the other is being renovated from the ground up all for the benefit of tourists and the house it was born in was sold five times and now it belongs to

chinese people. chinese brazilians french porto is extremely popular with tourists one point six million people visited last year from many foreigners point of view it's not only the coffee that's cheap the houses and apartments are affordable to demand from abroad is rising with big consequences according to economists carlos obvious. but if we compare the prices today with those of twenty thirteen that was the worst point of the crisis we see price increases in porto of more than forty two percent. forty two percent in five years porto seems a really good investment for those who can afford it that is most portuguese can't the average income here is only fourteen hundred euros per month. or the crucial moment that explains the tourism boom here was when ryan air started flying to porto. poland many long time residents of the inner city have fallen

victim to the boom the mother of three had to vacate her apartment at the beginning of the year she could no longer afford the rent for the cook then moved in with her parents it's a small space a protest banner hangs from the window. opus side of the matter says we're against tourists but we're not we're only against them being treated better than we are wonderful but i slice but it's not only the tourism boom that's putting porto's real estate market under pressure here's what real estate agent manuel mata has to say. he says he will see for the crisis around sixty thousand new homes were built each year throughout portugal in twenty fourteen there were only one tenth of that number six thousand. but a one day some say it could say. it will take years for supply to adjust to demand here too long for paula and her parents they'll have to leave porto shortly after
