jones jamal khashoggi. on heightened tensions between russia and ukraine a potential mediator in the conflict to german chancellor angela merkel has still not arrived because of a malfunction. of brussels a bureau chief is and what a satirist so welcome max and chief political correspondent melinda cry. miaow welcome both let's let's start with you in buenos aires that much of one as i was saying the german chancellor angela merkel hasn't arrived because of the plane trouble is a picture of her on board and iberia flights and it's pirates not even business. so while she's been walking up and down the corridor as it looks like a boy about plane what does she actually missed. right up. business is better than what we fly just to say we're not sure though we don't have confirmation that it's business maybe even economy so what has she missed she's
7:03 pm
missed the opening ceremonies she won't be part of the so-called family photo that's the photo where all the heads of state and government of the g. twenty are and so she won't be on that she's going to miss that by lateral meeting that was scheduled with the u.s. president donald trump but maybe they can make up for that on the sidelines or even schedule it for tomorrow after all donald trump is going to be here quite some time on saturday he has his lateral with the chinese president in the evening saturday evening so maybe some time to move things around there and she'll be here in time for dinner. ok so let's there where the important things at least melinda crane appears to be a host of international fires if i can put it that way that a raging of the moment but to sing like you to sort of take over this music slightly they absolutely are likely to deflect attention from what was supposed to be the main topic at the meeting namely fair and sustainable development but in fact due to the tensions between russia and ukraine due to the allegations that the
7:04 pm
saudi crown prince crown prince mohammed bin simon ordered the murder of a journalist and the crown prince is of course also attending this summit there are a lot of sort of frictions that the various leaders are going to have to deal with theoretically overcome and then there's the whole set of trade issues now they are a core topic for a meeting like the g. twenty the g. twenty actually was created to bring international leaders to talk about trends that affect the global economy so certainly trade is amongst those trends that will be big on the agenda we've heard that there's still a lot of tough negotiation going on in regard to a final communique from this meeting and one of the issues one of the sticking points is international trade along with climate change so a lot on the table and a lot of uncomfortable encounters ahead also for these leaders let's talk about
7:05 pm
trade the china u.s. trade dispute right there at the center of everything g. twenty is about our presence trump and likely to make progress this weekend. it's hard to read at the moment especially on the american side we have signals from sean through has been completely ambivalent so it's completely it's unclear he said maybe i'll do it but maybe i won't feel like it so we can't really trust that what the official u.s. trade representative lighthouses said though was more interesting he was cautiously optimistic that a deal could be struck although we're not sure what this deal means a good sign would be of course in the eyes of the g. twenty if it would stop the escalation in what is already a trade war that is after all one of the found the goals of the g. twenty to make trade easier not harder but the problem is if they strike a bilateral deal here which is not within the multi-car of multi multi national
7:06 pm
framework here then that my your be a problem especially for the european union because it might just cut them out so that is one of the worries that you have on the european side that they might actually strike a deal but it would it would isolate the rest of the g twenty here but melinda crane just to stay with with china did despite the condemnation fall for president trump's unilateral actions against china there are lots of countries who think he has a point even if they don't agree with his methods indeed they do there is a widespread sense that china resorts to unfair practices for example in regard to intellectual property of companies doing business in china as we've often discussed china has a joint venture law that requires those countries to enter into joint venture and their joint venture chinese partners often then wind up siphoning off trade secrets and intellectual property a lot of countries have a problem with that not only the u.s. they also have a problem with the fact that china doesn't open its market to
7:07 pm
a lot of services from from western industrialized countries but nonetheless the european countries very much object as you said to the way that the u.s. has gone about dealing with this dispute essentially because they see it as undermining the world trade organization and the rule. based international order there is a dispute resolution process within the w.t. how china has even resorted to it interestingly enough china used to really disregard that system and there's a feeling that by his attacks on the donald trump has worked to undermine the credibility of this very important organization if that rules based trade system goes away we will be back to something resembling a lot of the strongest and that is very very problematic. hoffman. a sort of britain that i'm guessing the british prime minister recently is going to have a busy time that looking for countries. to trade deals after breakfast
7:08 pm
i don't have a busy time with that and argentina could be a perfect partner because you know is also looking to get out of their economic slump slump with trade but they have this little problem the u.k. and argentina it's called the falkland islands which are u.k. territory but argentina for a long time said we want it back it's ours and this was of course the reason for the falkland wars and ever since the beginning of the eighty's the you know u.k. prime minister has shown his face here on this territory so this is a first for a long time through somebody is going to be back try to figure that situation out and she's also as we understand the only european leader and one of the few leaders here to have a bilateral meeting with the saudi crown prince and she's probably going to have a thing or two to say to him she already announced beforehand on the flight to born as i was that she was going to take a very robust stand so what exactly that means we don't know yet we expect her to communicate how that meeting went and afterwards the strategy of other leaders like
7:09 pm
merkel is just to avoid the saudi crown prince by the way i myself and what a satirist but into right i thank you both. and one of the pressing issues that summers as we've just been hearing is the rising tension between of russia and ukraine today ukraine announced a ban on all russian men of fighting age from entering the country ukrainian president petro poroshenko has also presented was he says is evidence of russian tanks massing along his country's border stating kilometers from ukraine those tanks are said to be close to where russia stores its i mean actions and weapon systems. in the models so as those tensions mount how is it affecting the lives of people living near the front line d.w. correspondent to every show and travel to the russian city of tehran on the cat straits where a new bridge has linked the russian mainland to the annex crimean peninsula.
7:10 pm
it's business as usual for. me she's been a taxi driver for two years in the town of tamanna on the ass off see the population here is around ten thousand and many of them no ludmilla live mila herself moved here from the year olds recently but tells me most people here have relatives across the sea in ukraine she says people usually don't want to talk about politics in her taxi even when it's happening right on their doorstep. people on panicking they try not to talk about the conflict. it's so close it's wearing but i'm sure nothing will happen. at the local market people admit they're shaken by the recent clash in the nearby see. me someone. who will be the first affected it's all right near us it's scary. stuff it's not
7:11 pm
scary i don't think anything will happen thank you brad to the ukrainians where our we used to live together so well. i used to go to ukraine to keep if we were like relatives. it's not for us regular people to decide to put it off it was sorted out it's an unpleasant situation i just want peace and not this. time on is at the foot of the crimean bridge tensions have been building here in the as of sea for months especially since the bridge was opened in may lead milam move to tom and to be near the sea she says she sometimes comes here for a break from taxi driving even in the winter the fifty four year old says her relatives and children back in you are worried about her but she is optimistic about the future of the azoff see me all spoke quietly to see calms me down us. sometimes when i want an answer to a question i ask. and if the next wave is big that means the answer is yes.
7:12 pm
i am very hopeful that our government will figure out everything that everything will be fine. and we will all this and. you see i want to do media. it seems to be stormy everywhere it might be apropos for ludmilla to now ask the as op see whether this stormy political situation will eventually calm down. it's all coming down crystal kobo is here taking a look at the new trade deal signed of the g twenty in argentina that's right fill the united states mexico and canada have signed a new trade deal after u.s. president donald trump pulled out of the region's free trade agreement now the fresh deal calls for seventy five percent of parts used in cars sold in the region to be manufactured in north america it also increases u.s. access to canada's very markets and maintains a trade dispute settlement system known as chapter nineteen which mr trump had
7:13 pm
hoped to scrap the deal must now be ratified by each country's parliament. however a number of issues remain including what to call the agreement the u.s. calls it the us mexico canada deal why the other countries have their own term pulling putting of course their own country first now decides that rare show of trade harmony this is by no means an easy time for lateral ism the g twenty is braced for fraud negotiations they'll be discussing a whole array of issues but trade certainly will top the agenda one of the most closely watched meetings as we've heard will be the meeting between u.s. president on trump and his chinese counterpart gigi ping now the two countries are still locked in a trade dispute that is showing little sign of resolution and it is scarring markets around the world the united states so far has imposed a tariffs on two hundred and fifty billion dollars worth of chinese imports china
7:14 pm
for its part has snapped tariffs on one hundred ten billion dollars worth of products made in usa the spat has had an impact on trade around the world with small businesses in china also feeling the pinch. when i mean when tones she ping talks with potential customers she avoids discussing china's trade issues with the u.s. most of his clients he says just want to buy a luxury vehicle for the best possible price until now about a third of his sales came from american brands but since the introduction of tariffs no one wants to buy them anymore. that will give a total of i don't think it was very wise of trying to start a trade war. either we all lose then china is a huge market and now he's losing that huge market for. cars like this dodge ram now cost around six thousand euros more due to a ten percent tariff on vehicles imported from the us. like other strong shipping
7:15 pm
has been caught up in the trade war set in motion by u.s. president donald trump and countered by chinese premier jiaxuan ping. more than just the movement of goods is at stake it's about influence power and world leadership in the future. john you know june founded a p.r. agency in beijing her husband jeremiah is an american the two have been married for eleven years. little has changed for them since the trade war began the only thing they've noticed is that apples in the supermarket that used to come from the us now come from canada. you know it doesn't have it but both are worried about the heated conflict a rocky tween the two countries of course because people talk about another cold world is that the case yes. it does concern me in to
7:16 pm
a certain extent because you know as the top leader after united states seeing something so strong i think that must mean something it seems to be kind of a strategic competitor or you know possibly even something more in the world today and i think a lot of americans have a hard time kind of putting that in in any kind of you know framework the trade war is affecting china its economy is slowing and beijing hopes its punitive tariffs will have the same effect on export industries in the u.s. the rivalry between the two nations will now set the tone at the g. twenty summit. the u.s. federal bureau of investigation says it is looking into a massive data hack that rattled the world's largest hotel group the personal data of up to half a billion guests may have been compromised in the hack of the reservation based of marriott's starve a vision for the large majority of those people that stolen data includes some
7:17 pm
combination of name address phone number email passport number as well as details of their state area it says it was alerted on september eighth that there had been an attempted had succeeded the probe showed that there had been an authorized access to the database as far back as twenty four thousand. for more on the story let's bring in max eyes our he is a computer security expert at the university of central lancashire in the u.k. welcome to the program max in broad terms could you tell us how this breach happened. well we don't quite know yet because the company hasn't really released any news. what would have been exactly in order for that to breach. to materialize in two thousand and fourteen it's really difficult to speculate speculate about this and said and it could be someone who is from outside the organization who figured out how to access the database because there was
7:18 pm
a vulnerability in the database itself or it could be an insider we really it's really difficult to tell at the moment how did that happen right now in broad terms there how would it be possible for hackers to stay undetected for more than four years as it happened obviously in this case well this is really concerning because when you think about it for the last forty years the and said and was under the radar so the attacker were have billy accessing the database without any detection and i think this is really concerning because if you don't look into your system and assess its vulnerabilities in a regular basis you can you are going to end up with a situation like this now on that point it seems that the number of these massive data breach is is on the rise currently and our companies particularly large corporations there handle
7:19 pm
a lot of data not doing enough to protect that sensitive information. well this is this is a this is a great issue at the moment because of a lot of companies collecting personal data information from their customers or from their business contacts and they are not apparently doing enough to secure this data and make sure it strongly encrypted it's protected and against any data breaches like this there are not really. putting enough effort into into place it looks like they want to run the business first and deal with security issues later and this is a massive issue to be dealt with as early as possible to avoid such. a massive data breach and that's one of those potentially affected by this hack supposed to do now well the company has released. a
7:20 pm
website. be will who are affected my go and look at it there is a headline as well and they said that they will send e-mails now this is what the company is doing and from the individual who things they are affected the best thing to do at the moment is to change their passwords to make sure that their records or their passwords are not to use in any suspicious activities later also they need to look and monitor their karthick or discard activities if there is any suspicious activity to make sure that their data is not used without their permission right next eyes of the university of central lancashire thank you for speaking to you don't. my pleasure thank you. public awareness is growing about the dangers that climate change and plastic pollution pose to our oceans but for those who make their living from the sea the challenge is to work sustainably without neglecting economic once upon

7:34 pm
that money was from the devil really it would slip through my hands while i had to share it out with the current leaders and then pay all those who helped me in the process but i used the money to build at least two houses in this compound i want to. move. keyless agree on. tanzania sexual offenses act for hiv it's genital mutilation of girls under the age of eighteen the lawyer then surely caught up with supreme in two thousand and fourteen and she spent a year in jail since then no more girls have gone under subpoenas knife. you know no one moved all of the job was given to me in the community c c m i would not go back and ask for it you know. the middle. of the. not far from serious home and terry me is st catherine's primary school. other

7:37 pm
me and we are one of the organizations that has started work there with local partners. children's dignity forum and from what we're hearing a number of the girls who have head about g.m. being a rights violation and are seeking refuge in i.c.c. from the film there are a few refuges that have been set up to ensure that girls who want to run away and majority do able to seek refuge and be safe during the season i think what so many people struggle to understand with this procedure is why mothers who have been through this painful dangerous process then force it on their daughters. the sad reality is that this is a social norm and when something is a social norm there is huge pressure and as you can tell from the film the anger revise the call that the cutter that you just spoke to is someone who is actually
7:38 pm
nominated by the clan leaders not the clan leaders in terry me a hugely important they control a lot and when they decide something people follow so as g.m. is actually very well organized as a whole political economy around it which includes the very best being chosen and money which is paid from the girls a cut also goes to the cutters as well as the eldest so at the same time this is a season of i would say and join men for quite a number of people because when the girls go and cut and come back they have to kill. cattle they have to celebrate they have to give out drinks so the community really takes advantage of this so it's not just the girls and the mothers but the fathers also incidentally very often when the girls go through of g.m. it is a precursor to marriage so our partner in tanzania children dignity forum is always
7:39 pm
telling us the whole context of g.m. which is not just the practice of g.m. but also the link child marriage rights so for our western perspective we look at this with with horror ok this should stop but as you've outlined this is very much embedded in the culture are there any benefits to it at all because one wonders why it started in the first place. and that started because for quite a number of girls in this community marriage requires that the family is given a couse and if you go through every g.m. it becomes signifier for the family to be given more cow so that girls who are not caught often do not have the necessarily. cows which become the bride price for marriage so there is an interest in the father's a share in that the girls get cut there is also some kind of myths around the fact that if the girl goes through of g.m. and she's not married then there is
7:40 pm
a curse so there are whole lot of myths with hunchy new to perpetuate this practice well thank you for sparing us the time good to talk to our auto or your time from a forward. you're welcome thank you to became a fast now the nation's strongest man his name is baby he shoulders tree trunks and toes trucks and it's sixty three centimeters around his bicep well so when you like to meet in a dark alley why would you be hanging around the dark alley anyway but i don't believe he is as friendly as they come under about the finest. i n b b is not a man you want to pick a fight with a towering one point nine meters the body builder weighs one hundred eighty kilograms but it's not just massive he's also extremely strong. action lodges right now i'm recognized as one of the strongest when it comes to show the strength and it's pretty hard for anyone to talk me in that area. over the years
