a christian woman sentenced to death for blasphemy but islamists ones i see have returned to jail on the judges who freed her dead. plus it's one hundred and eighty two meters tall very high stature in the world but india's new three hundred fifty million euros statue of unity has been anything but a symbol of togetherness and take a look at the control to see surrounding its inauguration. i'm phil gal welcome to the program. it's been barely two days since i'm going back on us that she would stand down as leader of her party and not see. a chance of the race to succeed or heated up today as one of her longstanding critics launched his leadership campaign friedrich matt says he can unite that divided party.
7:02 pm
meet chancellor merkel's old rival the man she once ousted is back to challenge her . yet the seaview needs a fresh start and renewal. needs a forward thinking political discussion and i believe that means the scene you has to be clear about its core values i'm going to america had taken over his position as parliamentary leader of the conservatives sixteen years ago many say he's never forgiven her he carried on as her second in command for a couple of years then in two thousand and nine he left politics he returned to his day job as an attorney joining an international corporate law firm he's also sat on the board of governors for several companies including the world's largest asset management firm blackrock so far is one of three contenders for the party leadership he's considered the most conservative among them and would represent
7:03 pm
a clear break with merkel style of politics. although he's been a critic of the chancellor and her government since he took power in two thousand and five he says now they could work together he's been. convinced that angle america and i will get along under these changed circumstances. and in a way that we both see fit. merits is a business friendly conservative has close ties to the private sector are controversial and has made him a target for criticism. the christian democrats will decide who will succeed chancellor merkel as their leader at a party conference in december if matz gets the job germany's conservatives will have to brace themselves for drastic change not least because of his rise could spell the end of an america as chancellor given their differences she may not want to stay in office much longer. german politics could get so interesting melinda
7:04 pm
crane is our chief political correspondent and welcome so what would have freidrich met celeb c.d.u. look like well to be honest today when he made this statement he didn't give us a whole lot to go by but what we do know is that he's viewed as business friendly he has been a high powered corporate lawyer for the past nine years and he was business friendly back when he was in politics so i think we would certainly see him trying to introduce business friendly policies to to the extent that the c.d.u. isn't already doing that we also know he was always an advocate of major simplification of the tax code he once famously said the whole tax code should be able to be our tax declaration should be able to be written on the back of a kick coaster for beer so i think we're certainly likely to see him try to introduce those kind of reforms but we also know and he said it very clearly today he wants to sharpen the cd use conservative profile in order to win back voters who
7:05 pm
may have strayed off to for example the far right to nationalistic a.f.d. party he's not going to win them with business friendly and tax reforms for that he would need to take the cut of the party in a distinctly more national conservative direction particularly on immigration now he didn't say a word about immigration today but what we do know is that back when he was in politics he was definitely in favor of stronger measures to compel immigrants to assimilate to what was referred to back them as leading german cultural values so will we see him introduce that kind of reform and will it win back voters that is the big open question here ok so that's russ what he will offer a job and if he gets the position as chairman and then johnson what about foreign policy there he gave us a much clearer sense of where he perhaps would diverged from the chancellor he said of him self that he has a strong transatlantic system and a strong. pro european well she would say the same about herself. but he did say he
7:06 pm
thinks that for example on europe the c.d.u. has not been doing enough to for example respond to the french president macro's very very comprehensive reform proposals and certainly he's right on that many people say that germany for the last six months since the new government came into office has been asleep at the wheel when it comes to europe so that was a pretty strong statement from him about at least one thing he would do differently ok so he's not the only kind of the having he's one of three so what sort of competitions he faces another very conservative profile would be that of the current health minister and he said he also wants the job distinctly younger that does seem to appeal to younger voters and younger conservatives nonetheless he is a distant third at the moment if you look at the polls that are being done and then there is the chancellor's own preferred successor that is on a great comp power she is currently general secretary of the conservative party she
7:07 pm
would lead in a similar to rection to the chancellor meaning socially liberal centrist and she at the moment is second if you look at the polls but it's early days there's going to be a lot of positioning until the party conference which is early december ok so for now we thank you belinda great chief political correspondent. let's take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world saudi journalist jamal khashoggi was strangled to death immediately after entering riyadh consulate in istanbul this according to the city's the chief prosecutor he says because shoulders of body was and cut off and disposed of saudi arabia's attorney general has now left following talks about the case. sudanese a rebel leader react which on his return to saddam celebrates a peace deal with longtime rival president salva kiir of the world's young. the nation was plunged into civil war in twenty thirty when president kiir sat
7:08 pm
mashallah as his vice president of a country has seen a string of failed ceasefires and peace deals ever since. now nato is holding its biggest military maneuver since the end of the cold war the aim is to simulate an attack on a member state by an aggressor code named trident juncture the exercises began last weekend involve all twenty nine nato countries plus finland and sweden that being held in norway in the north atlantic and the baltic sea these locations are being interpreted as a signal to russia with relations still tense because of moscow's an exception of crimea in twenty fourteen it's taken months to get everything in position fifty thousand combat troops and support personnel two hundred and fifty aircraft to sixty five ships and ten thousand military vehicles moscow says this is an anti russian exercise d.w.
7:09 pm
reported last week is that with the troops and the tax. why. i know. blowing up obstacles. and building bridges in just a few minutes to capabilities that the german army is bringing to try to juncture. but of these old school skills still needed in times of hybrid warfare and cyber attacks as a result after the ukraine crisis we saw that it is more important to change back from stability operations to hire tens of thousands of what we see and as an interest to move larger formations and heavy equipment that's had not been trained and done with within the last ten years far from the russian border germany has set up its operational headquarters and then always an intel lands together with troops from france the netherlands belgium and. germany alone has brought ten thousand
7:10 pm
soldiers up here to norway and just into tanks weapons and other supplies it's a massive logistical challenge designed to improve the speech with which nato members could in a worst case scenario come to each other's rescue. this huge influx of people and equipment more than fifty thousand soldiers from thirty one countries is a true test for the host nation norway. but the attitude among the public is there really positive support for nato here is among the highest of all member states and not just because no way shares a border with russia they're not so afraid that it will be a war are nothing but that's a lot of things happening in the world so you never know how so nato is important for us of course well i believe russia has become a big threat in the last two years and i wouldn't need new we need to show where our power in this war and the world and i know i could be part of it but it's not
7:11 pm
like it's something i think about but some of nato has tested. passa teeth are hidden the population. remote controlled weapon systems. self driving vehicles. military drones. so is this the future of the workfare all those capabilities have to be reversible or it means that. the forces can rely on this capability and have have to know how to do without those capabilities because. all the system can be jammed all destroyed or taken by the. by someone else so the military have to to remain reversible. and that's why the airlines are still banking on tanks and boots on the ground battling daunting logistics and the elements here in the frigid no we climate. meanwhile germany's defense
7:12 pm
minister or set off on the lion has been has been in no way visiting troops taking part and that operation in an exclusive interview d.w. asked her about relations between nato and russia. what is that and minister from the lyon after the end of the cold war nato concentrated its efforts less on national defense and more on other tasks russia's incursion into ukraine change that is this maneuver here in norway a sign of a rethink like these things as of let's figure out what we know to estimate we correctly assumed at the beginning after we unification and the dissolution of the will so pact is that peace is more prevalent and democracies are growing all around us since two thousand and fourteen at the latest which was not only at the time of the annexation of crimea and the spread of i asked but also of destabilization in africa we know that there are new challenges and that we have to readjust on
7:13 pm
a national and alliance level and this maneuver is an expression of that. this what kind of maneuver is it you go to it's an exercise and how quickly we can relocate large units of troops and a lot of material inside alliance territory nato is a defense alliance that protects its members. secondly it's an exercise in how they're provided for in an area of operations and thirdly very importantly the so called interoperability that is cooperation on the teamwork of twenty nine nato countries plus sweden and finland and that obviously works very well. what russia has been critical saying that this maneuver is aimed at moscow is it is not as is no it's definitely not it's not aimed at anyone once again we are a defensive alliance we defend we protect and nato you must be capable of protecting its member countries where ever anything might happen within the natives and that's why we clearly announce this minute that we've been transparent that
7:14 pm
there are russian observers here which is very important to create trust of tons of stuff you know to that side at exactly the same time as this maneuver is taking place in norway the russians are testing missiles in an exercise zone does that bother you i know because the russians also announced their exercise which is important and it can be dealt with very professionally on both sides through clear dialogue and exchange. of course in pakistan has freed a christian woman sentenced to death for blasphemy whether to see a baby was condemned to hang in twenty ten for insulting islam as prophet muhammad since today's ruling thousands of islamist activists have blocked roads and ransacked government property in protest with one group calling for the death of the judges who overturned the sentence. she has spent most of the past eight years in a prison cell in solitary confinement. bibi has always maintained her innocence the
7:15 pm
christian farm worker and mother of two was convicted in two thousand and ten of blasphemy she was accused of insulting the prophet mohammed after muslim women from her village objected to her drinking water from their shared grass because she was christian bibi then became the first woman to be sentenced to death by hanging under pakistan's controversial blasphemy laws but now pakistan's highest court has decided to overturn the verdict and said b.b. the ruling was immediately met with angry protests by hard line islamists. the only punishment for a blasphemer is beheading bass sound and we won't obey this oppression. the leaders of one islamist party have even called for the death of the judges who ruled in favor of us and babies release. her story began in a rural pakistani village but what started here has stirred intense emotions
7:16 pm
around the world. in the past islamists have murdered some of those who spoke out in her favor. today's reactions show that their anger has diminished a little since her breast nearly ten years ago. let's get more on this from the heart of the human rights activist in pakistan who joins us from the capital islamabad welcome to team w i know that activists like yourself have been fighting for this results and sasser was sentenced in twenty ten today's news must have been very welcome. thank you very much yes it is a welcome news but the decision itself is explains and confirms some o'clock and sons which are about going to perdition of the law to be using the law
7:17 pm
. and settling bustin and private scores and i think it's a very important decision that the supreme court ruling that they have given the sites there is an additional note by one of the judges on the on the panel and that tradition of north actually. pinpoints the issues with the existing law and the criminal procedure court and biased on ok so that. given that this was such a technically detailed ruling do you expect these blasphemy laws to change. that's an important question i believe and not in the short run i would say unfortunately but the thing is that these laws have been misused which takes it beyond that you know the law has problems but the law is misused which complicates and makes the issue more complex i do not particularly personally consider people who have taken to the street to be the real cause i mean of course is you know the
7:18 pm
danger duction of such such a amendments in the constitution in the constitution provisions that the at and also the criminal procedure of court as i said by general allen not just marching through and the parliaments which said the subsequent fall of moon's. different parties were biased on since then and none of them actually took the issue seriously so it is basically the law makers in biased on end and indian students of the state which who are responsible what lies in the society and creating an issue of this magnitude all right so it was about as the way you say it it was a bad law applied badly let's talk about i see a baby she's not technically a free woman but can she really sickly stay in pakistan. i'm not sure really because you know we haven't seen any of the blasphemy accused
7:19 pm
staying back in by a stand since even if they have not been. charged or even sentenced i mean or even try to i mean there were cases where people have to go into exile and join the families in exile the whole family had to move into exile and unfortunately that is going to be the solution for a. family with a taught him how to set tell he can islam about i can. time to business update with christoph coba here now and he has good news for birthday an industrial giant siemens is looking at extending themselves here that is ride to fill six hundred million euros that's the kind of money that siemens is putting on the table to finance and innovation center here in berlin now it's meant to be part of what some hole will become a german silicon valley one day siemens investment would be the biggest of any

7:31 pm
a sense the u.s. intelligence community concluded that russia into fit with the twenty sixteen presidential election officials on the ground have been on high alert to provide this information campaigns and voting systems being compromised they don't do so correspondent in washington stephan simons has this report. national museum of american history in washington is housing an exhibition called american democracy showcasing objects in artifacts used in u.s. elections through time it's gaining popularity with visitors these days as many americans are not so sure anymore that their vote is safe from tampering unmanipulated and to alice miller executive director of the washington d.c. board of elections ms miller is ultimately responsible for the election process in the district of columbia for miller and her team that means long days filled with plenty of overtime hours focusing on one thing and one thing only we want to make
7:32 pm
sure our systems are secure we want to make sure poll workers are trained no easy task protecting the upcoming midterm elections from any form of cyber interference has been declared a national security issue the white house and congress across party lines are on the same page no one wants a repeat of what happened in the two thousand and sixteen presidential elections when so-called russian government cyber actors managed to gain access to u.s. election infrastructure i'm here to say the warning lights are brick blinking red again. today the digital infrastructure that serves this country is literally under attack congress approved three hundred eighty million dollars in march this year for all fifty states to share so they can beef up cyber security measures local the u.s. the park in the form and security has formed special task forces and offer services to state officials responsible for the cyber safe conduct of the november elections
7:33 pm
alice miller is thankful for the help we work very closely with us we have homeland security advisers place on each level we have cyber security advisors that we work with we have smaller groups within our own network that we work with we always. however some critics say all of this is a step in the right direction but comes too late case in point this year's def con in las vegas nevada conference for what are known as whitehead hackers also focused on election cyber security the def-con hackers fighting the good fight in the cyber security battles have released a report pointing out remaining vulnerabilities that are unlikely to be fixed before november sixth one example the type of voting machine currently in use in twenty six states is vulnerable to remote hacking and another machine still used in eighteen states was able to be hacked in just two minutes maybe not for alice
7:34 pm
miller and her team but for many u.s. states making voting safe again remains a major challenge. something completely different a growing number of women in south korea say they have had enough of the pressure society puts on them to look perfect pushing back against strict beauty standards by smashing up their makeup cutting their hair and posing as all on social media under the has tag cast off a corset many women in south korea said appears the goals that dominate their society have become unrealistic and normalized and they're calling for change. do you do social media readers here to tell us more so talk us through the strict korean beauty standards janet will you've heard of her being korean which is amazing yes but korean skincare is its own phenomenon and it's cold k. beauty and this is an industry worth billions and it creates products thousands of
7:35 pm
products designed primarily focusing on looking pale and looking younger and what also makes south korea stand out is it's the global capital of plastic surgery believe well not as many as one in three young women have gone on to the knife in some form and that's because plastic surgery in south korea is viewed with less of a stigma as it might be elsewhere and people do go to the nih for various reasons to improve their social standing and also for things like job opportunities and also i've seen high school kids being given leaflets promoting plastic surgery so this they start young well but now there's a backlash that's a lot of women saying these beauty standards are just unattainable and some of them quite literally taking a homage to the beauty products and posting the videos to instagram and it's just taken off day using the cosmetics also to spell out various hashtags in korean like
7:36 pm
feminist and cost off the corset and makeup to corsets because they say they feel constrained one woman wrote on instagram i don't want this garbage in my life anymore i want to display my natural appearance i'm throwing the corset away cost of the course there's this discussion of beauty of course is something that isn't just happening now it's been going on for decades and it's an important conversation to have but a lot of women say that there are practical elements to this as well namely the money that they spend on these expensive products they think could be better. elsewhere and time it takes a lot of time to you know these beauty regimes just suck up a lot of time and they want their i was back in the day and it's not just make up that's right so part of this movement is focused on improving beauty standards but also just feeling more comfortable as well as as well as wearing less makeup people
7:37 pm
cutting their hair they're wearing glasses instead of contacts you've got some before and after shots they're wearing comfortable clothing and underwear and basically challenging the patriarchal society that exists in south korea one woman wrote on instagram she says taking action is one hundred times more powerful than words i used to cover my face with my hair i used to wear colored lenses to the point that i got conjunctive vitus i only wore skirts i hated my eyelids cost of the course and this is of course coming after the me too movement which is gaining ground in south korea and as we know are all around the world which we've covered here and there is more on our website which is t w dot com comfortable clothing. as we all know. india has unveiled the world's tallest statue prime minister narendra modi inaugurated the monument in a ceremony honoring assad tell who's credited with you with uniting india after its
7:38 pm
independence from britain in one thousand nine hundred forty seven but the ceremony has also been mired in controversy. the high cost of the stature and the damage to the environment. we've got not only got on with pomp and tight security india's prime minister narendra modi inaugurated this statue of unity. zero. one hundred eighty two meter tall bronze clad towering over western state. india's iron man sardar patel was the country's first deputy prime minister after india gained independence in one thousand nine hundred seventy patel played a key role in bringing the country states together. twenty odd years that the my brothers and sisters believe this the world's tallest statute will keep on
7:39 pm
reminding the whole world and our future generations about the person's courage capability and resolve. to the not be that. this so called symbol of unification was nearly four years in the making now it's unveiling is being overshadowed by protests and accusations of political point scoring the statue is part of the hindu nationalist parties effort to rebrand what it calls forgotten leaders but their critics see this as an effort to appropriate a national hero figure ahead of next year's national election. the four hundred million dollar project has uprooted many residence one hundred eighty five families most of them belonging to local tribes were forced to leave their homes. ahead of the inauguration local chiefs called for modi to stay away and there are reports of activist leaders who have been detained. and despite protests
7:40 pm
authorities hope the site will be a popular tourist attraction in this remote corner of india. and they are rushing to ensure the area has enough hotels restaurants and other infrastructure to cope with the anticipated rush. a second round of german cup has begun tom de to be sporting here to talk to the results welcome tom let's start with munich against reading has not as true david versus goliath match how did it. fair to say this one unfortunately for instance it wasn't all that in fact now rooting housing on in the fourth division in germany that means they pay a semi professional level and it would buy i mean it would of course talking about the most highly paid and highly decorated stars in german football when they made it look a little bit more difficult than perhaps what we've been let's take
7:41 pm
a look and see how the game plan now by in munich needed to avoid a cup stumble against it bored to tears. and they could breathe easy in the eight minutes some nice work from and renata sanchez and. tapped into make it one nil. and just minutes later sanchez had a shirt and the ref pointed to this but. converting to make it to kneel. ten minutes later another penalty this time sanchez stepped up but he hit the woodwork. gooding housing came out swinging after the break and they hit the net. kelvin longer with the cross the u.s. meyer with the finish after that both teams were playing it safe on clay barely missing the chance to seal the victory in the seventy fifth minute. a lackluster two one win puts byron through to the next round and it leaves tiago injured.
7:42 pm
lackluster that's a good word as well that locking. how would you assess by a form at the moment well it's difficult because you know they had i think probably everybody agrees a bit of a crisis of form in late september and early november they went four games without when they suffered two big defeats in the bin as leader back to back in fact which doesn't really happened upon munich that much since then they have won four games in a row so it seems odd to talk about their you know like a dip in form or something. against athens in the champions league they struggled they ground out results against mines that have been easy for them as well and now against rooting howe's and we saw their lackluster performance you know they have been getting the wins and that's of course four counts but not that impressively now in ten days' time they're going to play to dortmund who are of course flying very high at the top of the business leader at the moment so that's going to be the real test that's when i think we'll really be able to assess you know bond strength this season. of course that currently in action against the union berlin how did
7:43 pm
you see that one go they are indeed well they're currently one up at the moment now like i said they've been doing fantastically so far this season they thrashed at that to go madrid they're undefeated at the top of the women's league were known but also in fact undefeated so far this season so it could be a tricky clash potentially a stumbling block but you know we saw this exact fixture two years ago now that went all the way into penalties but like i said it's a different. team that we're looking at the moment they want to look through christian policy i think it will be a shock unfortunately for the eight thousand and one billion fans who've made the journey if they left with anything. what about the rest of the games well should we be looking for so we've got some more hostile scores i can tell you about cologne are currently one nil up against childcare now that however that game goes out that's going to be a very big result because cologne need all they can to get their confidence back up at the moment in their quest for promotion glad back will be playing leverkusen later on live from haim weisz if lenz balk from the fourth division are currently
