with the chancellor and the city welcoming what sort of reception has the chancellor received. well quite clearly the people here of candidates wanted some answers from the german chancellor she took a lot of criticism for as many see it coming here way too late she was asked about this to kick off that discussion and she said that she didn't want to come as the emotions were still running high here well emotions are kind of running so high once again although in a much more civilized fashion when the chance here is being challenged by ordinary citizens of chemists who feel that their city was hijacked by right wing extremist mob and that they certainly don't represent what they stand for so having arrived three months after the fact what is the child's right to try to achieve.

well one of the most interesting sentences i think we've heard from her so far is that she said of all maybe the dialogue with citizens simply didn't take place often enough and here the state she launched a whole series of dialogue events before those events of chemist's and that's also how many people here felt they actually challenge the chancellor asking her where she thinks this frustration here in the region also comes from and we saw a chance that they're really struggling to analyze this she said that candidates really wasn't experiencing problems that with that terribly different from other regions in germany and that of course many of them were attached to migration. so far right demonstrations in the time that every friday since august violent protests. is that symptomatic of the rest of germany or is chemists not region

something a little different. well it is a reason that is a little different but to start with the first bit of your question it's not representative of germany as a whole that's something right wing extremists would like to portray wherever there is a violent incident that has anything to do with migrants there's a real risk that that gets hijacked and that that becomes a rightwing extremist platform as happened right here in kenya is what people are suffering from so much here but of course undeniably saxony itself is afraid of a potential shift to the right many here certainly are. regional elections coming up over the next year and there's a big question mark is whether what happened here whether the whole twenty fifteen so-called migration crisis so haunts what is increasingly becoming the legacy of

the german chancellor here will come to play and whether saxony that has a very strong showing also historically in the past the far right extremist party used to be strong here and now it's the far right if t. so that is something that people are very aware of right here in the eastern state of saxony well it's obviously it's friday i have the chancellor in the town of expecting protests that tonight. for you probably because this microphone probably isn't picking it up but i can hear whistling i can hear demonstrations going on as we speak that was always going to be the case in my suspicion is that that is also the partly the reason if not the key reason why the chancellor didn't come earlier because it could have stirred those emotions that were running high here even further here because my income that's like you. now to some of the

so six weeks. there was a funeral today. well yes you have to know that islamic custom places a huge importance on the proper handling of the dead are usually mandating a quick burial but as you said after six weeks a body or the remains off his body have still not been found so what we saw today was a symbolic funeral prayer here at the historic fati mosque in the east let's remember turkish authorities say that he was killed inside the saudi consulate here in istanbul and dismembered and they are also looking into the possibility that his boss he was a body was later discovered in acid so many here in fact are convinced by now that his body will never be found so this is probably one of the reasons why his friends and family decided to have this funeral ceremony today so what we saw today is them

gathering in front of an empty table an empty slab actually where according to islamic tradition his coffin his body should have been and i remember we heard one speech by one of his friends today who said and i quote him here he might have been killed but his ideas his principles are very much alive so his friends his supporters today said they would continue to ask questions they would continue to seek justice and press for those who ordered his killing to be punished so. the prosecutors announced yesterday that. five. but that's not enough for the turkish government. no the turkish government is not satisfied as ole especially since a saudi prosecutor has not provided any names for these five suspects and riyadh still maintains that crown prince had been summoned has nothing to do with the

murder of turkey on the other hand the turkish government claims it was a premeditated murder they say a killing team was specifically sent to with this mission and the necessary equipment to istanbul to carry out the killing president out on himself says he believes it was ordered at the very highest level of the saudi government the saudi leadership and you know turkey is now calling for an international probe into what happened to mr shakti but they themselves have not released a very important part of the evidence and or you recording they claim to exist they have reportedly also played two different international part potus that allegedly proves that mr a was killed now today a pro-government column this reported there is actually a second order recording fifteen minutes long recorded in the minutes leading up to the murder proving that the saudi killing team sat down in the saudi consulate and

discussed how they would carry out the more murder now that has not been very fight is also not clear is this the second recording is that part of the first recording but this is definitely a piece of the puzzle the turks have to release at some point that's what many people are waiting for. people today for the first time. to the regime's leaders guilty of genocide. crimes against humanity. this is a long awaited moment to form a committee rouge leaders known share and kids some fans are sentenced to life in prison for genocide by a un backed quilt. home. but the chamber has considered the

gravity of the crimes including their scale of brutality the number and the vulnerability of the victims for which the accused have been convicted. these two old men the last surviving leaders of the committee rouge already serving life sentences for crimes against humanity but this new verdict is a landmark ruling for the first time it says that the crimes against cambodians vietnamese and sham minorities amounted to genocide delivery of the judgment today in face to zero zero to this end historic achievement in the work of the extraordinary chambers in the courts of cambodia. this court is once again demonstrated that he has the capacity to prosecute and try the most complex cases in accordance with international standards. the committee rouge under its leader pol pot sought to create a communist utopia but forcibly moving people from the cities to the countryside

nearly two million cambodians died from overwork starvation and mass executions during its reign of terror from one thousand nine hundred five to nine hundred seventy nine plum pens museums and memorials detail the sheer horror of the past a past that lingers. they deserve to get the sentence because they committed such big crimes the rest of my family members were killed and the only child who survived that regime. this is an important moment for cambodia it's courts recognizing that what happened here was indeed genocide. award winning journalist testified at the trial she told us about her experiences of cambodia under the command rouge leader. i saw a country that was emptied of society i lived there during the war and was shocked that the streets were empty the people were gone there were no markets there was no

life there is no pagoda to go to us were empty shops for close schools were closed there was no music there is nothing and then you go into the country to the labor camps and i was under serious government guard so they didn't let me poke around any more than allowed but it was what was missing that was so horrible that people were living in work camps they did not look good and i was shown what was supposed to be a model camps still once they were all the c'mere which were overthrown i was shocked and horrified by all that was hidden from me the torture centers killing fields now the record is straight there was witnesses corroborating every aspect of the starvation then forced labor the rapes the forced marriages the the the murder it's all on the record now and that's it that's an incredible record.

business we're. not starting with volkswagen trying to step out of the shadows of the diesel gate scandal good luck with that the german guy goes on the offensive they want to become the number one that worldwide intellectual ability and they're the camera pans with. the company said on friday that's why they are digging deep into their own pockets forty four billion euros are available for the next five years bonds will that be enough. after hours of discussion the supervisory board gave the green light for the future plans and billions of euros in investment. folks working c.e.o. have a decent announce the ambitious plans it was about it often see fifty five we are sending new signals we're focusing v.w. ungreen mobility we're increasing investments in this area and we're considering participating in battery production and introducing many new electric models.

according to insiders negotiations are already underway for a partnership with the south korean battery cell manufacturers. v.w. like all german car makers has had to buy batteries in asia so far and a lot is about to change it folks wagons existing works three locations in germany will be converted into electric car production sites and v.w. is making a substantial four billion euro investment in china to. where's the money coming from the u.s. dug deep into its own pockets to finance the plan but it could cost some employees their jobs electric cars are far easier to build than combustion engine models but the company doesn't have many other options. plans seem to be made of equal parts optimism and drive the timing is right when other countries like china want to phase out combustion engines within the next few years and they'll be playing catch up with other manufacturers like tesla which are well ahead when it comes to the

mobility a little earlier i spoke with my colleague stephen bits they have been and i asked him whether all these lawsuits over these will have praying a badly needed fresh start into him ability at full stop. right i mean it's obviously a huge shadow over volkswagen has been since twenty fifteen and with d.s. there's the added complication that it's known that he's also part of this investigation he did arrive around the time of the diesel scandal probably was not a decision maker but it's believed that he could have been read into it in a way that he might have heard of it and didn't come to authorities or didn't do what he should have done it's really unknown at this point but volkswagen you would think the volkswagen would not have put him in such a high position and entrusted him with so much power if he had so much exposure. isn't folks a bit late to the electric car yet clearly they are i mean tesla has already sort of production on a mass market car itself volkswagens hard to say if the diesel scandal if it hadn't happened if it would've made this transition faster if it would have slowed it down

it's really hard to say but it was clear that was going to have to happen at any rate what's interesting is that tesla is the faster is the more innovative car company out there but volkswagen is now bring it straight and the plate thirty five billion dollars i believe or euros that's an incredible song that has the resources it has the production knowledge and it has the suppliers and the contracts to bring all this together and that's what it's doing and so a lot of people believe that if this is going to become a mass market thing it's going to be because of what volkswagen is doing right now look at its mass market car that is just proposing right now based cost twenty two thousand dollars it's say to get into an electric car tesla is tesla three years model three base thirty five thousand dollars that's a huge difference it indeed is busy thank you very much. higher electricity bills soaring prices at the pump euro zone consumers are now feeling the pinch inflation across the nineteen countries using the single currency has risen to his highest level in nearly six years prices increased by two point two percent in october

according to statistics agency euro stat consumers are also digging deeper into their pockets to buy groceries are college beverages and tobacco at the supermarket the new wide inflation rate is now above the european central bank goal of just two percent some economists urged the e.c.b. to raise its benchmark interest rate it's been at zero percent since march twenty sixth. well let's go to frankfurt where the central bank is based on a corpus there for us dollar other calls for the e.c.b. to start raising rates getting louder. well there are indeed many people also investors who have been asking for that already for quite some time but yes you said it to persist two point two percent as the inflation rate right now the e.c.b. wants to have it at a level of only two percent so you know let's see what's going to happen already by

the end of the year the stimulus program the bond purchasing program of the e.c.b. is set to expire the question now is going to be also with the situation with italy for example the budget of italy is now relieved by two thousand and nineteen that's what many have been asking for also mario draghi will be changing the interest rates some people here are a little bit warriors that he won't because of this ongoing problems right now with it to leave though there was a meeting today here and frankfurt he was speaking at the european banking forum during that meeting actually his outlook for two thousand and nineteen and his forecast didn't look very bad it sounded actually a pretty promising so yes maybe we're going to see in two thousand and nineteen those higher interest rates but it's not clear yet. been frankfurt thank you.

and to jacob that the only way now to reject this policy is to ask the prime minister to go into. the government is struggling to secure a deal with the e.u. before bragg's it is triggered at the end of march next year meanwhile the u.k. remains divided over whether or not it should even leave the union. california's wildfires has risen to more than six hundred and least sixty a dad. managed to contain most of the blaze and thousands of people are beginning to return to their communities often to find their possessions reduced to ashes. this is what it looks like to lose everything. there i hope you and quick that's all i can say. while my gosh
