i'm sumi someone's gotta thank you for joining us hundreds of german politicians have had their personal information hacked the stolen data includes cell phone numbers and credit card details which were posted to twitter germany security agencies are investigating but who is responsible isn't yet known and the government says the hackers targeted lawmakers at all levels. even german chancellor angela merkel has been affected the late day to includes a fax number e-mail address and several letters purported to come out of her office it's not clear if the league documents are authentic sits in flight it does say however that even if a large part of the data concerned rail fence sick experience says that in such cases falsified data may also have been mixed in. hundreds of other german politicians from every german political party were targeted by the hackers they

then use to make public personal data such as phone numbers is empty fixation documents chats invoices and even photos of the children germany's justice minister cutting up bali come down the leaks as an attack on the country's democracy the left faction co-leader ceci steeply shocked. this is an actual it's an attack on the social cash in a far country i've read and heard that many artists join the list and politicians are a fact it isn't the amos obviously to create a climate of fear a climate of insecurity in our country. the leak was first discovered thursday evening however it appears the first document started appearing in december with a twitter account releasing information daily in the style offered at the end callender none of the internal documents that were released are reported to be highly sensitive at the moment there is no known suspect number two that action

starts not to see for ourselves where evidentially transparent and that the mercy of such a tax debt is intolerable is calm but least so far as i know it's not the first time that german politicians have been hacked russia was sick used to facilities of cyber attacks that stole data from computers into chairman parliament in twenty fifteen and last year the german government's i t network came under a fresh attack russian hackers well let's diddley also to play. our political correspondent maximiliano kosik is following the latest updates for us max personal data here as we've heard has been leaked cell phone numbers credit card details the government spokesman has said that no highly sensitive data and leaked out what i mean by that. well there's always different categories in which you can consider data leaks or hack attacks like the suspected one that we're currently talking about the attack or the leak that we currently talking about is

one that contains a lot of like a mass of data and in that is a mixture of a lot of personal data but experts have already confirmed that some of the information has been publicly available for example has been drawn from public websites such as the german parliament's website some of the information that has been supposedly leaked has come from all the leaks for example from two thousand and twelve facebook hack attack where personal data has already been leaked and some has been falsified so experts are currently looking into it and it's important to note that the original leak twitter account has already been shut down but of course there still circulation of the links that have been distributed on the internet max this is a serious breach we saw in our report also the chance are being affected what are authorities doing to deal with this well currently we know that the federal agency for information security is meeting with intelligence services the german

government has also been informed and they're now launching an investigation we have it on good authority that the american services are helping on that and of course as important to note very crucial for internet users out there the links are still circulating and it's advice that you should not open them because even though it's quite tempting there seems to be information also on celebrities german celebrities but also potentially well known figures such as german chancellor angela merkel that you do not open these links because they could contain malicious software max this is not the first tack on german politicians on german government networks in recent years a russian group were suspected behind the attacks is there any indication who was behind this data leak. no there isn't the has been a quick sort of remarkable notes that it was looking like the far right party if he has not been affected from the league but now politicians of the party have come

forward and said that they have been. affected too however this what it seems like this is an attack or a leak that is aimed to sort of look at like psychological warfare so personal data everybody can be affected even the most powerful people in germany and so what is different to previous leaks is that those were for example attacking critical infrastructures public services or the german parliamentary technical infrastructure and those kind of attacks the ones that have been have been previously were always attacks that were looking like for an espionage this one seems to be more of something that is like aimed at showing how easily everybody can be targeted and how everybody in germany and everywhere in the world should be taken care of their personal cyber security all right our political correspondent max me and of course you're covering the story for us thank you very much we stay in germany members of the bavarian c.s.u. party the sister party to uncle michael's conservative c.d.u.

party are holding their annual meeting of the conservative c.s.u. or christian social union is holding their annual conference and they are not far from munich it's the second day of the three day event every year the party invites prominent figures to speak and this year special guest is irish prime minister leo bard carr is expected to make a speech later in the day. and he did use chief political editor michelle if you snore is covering the conference in they on for us he joins us for more michelle a good to see you tell us more about the irish prime minister's visit today. yes he's invited here in stark contrast to viktor orbán probably the european migration critic in chief who was here last year ok to hear this is a demonstration of solidarity with allah and in this tricky weeks leading up to what could be an uncontrolled bricks at an exit of the u.k. from the european union of course that crucial vote coming up in the british

parliament whether m.p.'s will accept the brics it deal here this is you who is actually taking a stance that it's all the way with the irish and also sending a signal that it's on top of the political agenda because we are in the first week of the year and this is the almost traditional chance for the c.s.u. the system party of anglo-american c.d.u. party to set the political agenda an opportunity they certainly try and seize every single year michelle you are saying this is a show of solidarity with the irish prime minister the c.s.u. however has in the past shown sympathy for more euro skeptic positions even criticizing the e.u. for example for being too hard on britain in bragg's that negotiations are we seeing a shift now and why. well absolutely the not really shifting position just a couple of details to consider the varia is where germany's automotive industry is

it has a lot to lose if there is an uncontrolled breck's it and this you see as you has always been the voice basically calling on german leaders not to be too tough on britain at the same time also the c.d.c. was never question the european union itself that is political consensus here in germany reaching into every bit of the forests varia as well but quite clearly the sees you as never shied away from being very critical also when it came to that greek rescue package that ran out just very recently that's also why we saw the leader of the greek opposition will cut here here in on as well of course there are elections coming up in greece as well. our chief political correspondent michelle i could not for us thank you very much. now to

rescue of the libyan coast in december this is spending reality for about fifty microns they are in limbo in the narrow confines of the two ships operated by eight organizations sea watch and c i q a peon countries have so far refused to let them disembark but mayors of several large italian cities refused to obey the country's official tough anti immigration law slamming it as unconstitutional. in naples us and other cities we apply the laws only if they conform with the constitution thus the constitution prevails are the ordinary laws for you to get people's rights are restricted according to the color of the skin by the constitution must prevail. in this official letter the majesty offered to let the watch come to the heart of naples assuring them that the refugees will be able to disembark. but according to see watch this is easier said than done official

rescue centers have to assign available ports and the weather conditions are simply too bad deeply affecting the people on board. but the biggest problem is also that . the thirty two people that we have here on board know already for thirteen days. the show mental problems florence and palermo as well as several german cities have also offered the migrants refuge as more and more official to unite in solidarity with the refugees hoping creases for those in desperate need of help. well one of the rescue boats is operated by the german n.-g. o. sea watch it is just off the southern coast of malta right now and as a member of the german parliament a member of the green party here in germany he is on board right to. the crew's mission and help find a safe harbor and he joins us on the line and mr quintal thank you very much for joining us on g.w. there are concerns as we said that conditions on board are deteriorating especially

for the migrants how have you found the conditions to be onboard. well thank you for having me i just think migrants just this minute and of course shows that they're on board for for two days not only when they go over they can go on land and. told to a fellow. here and they have a call but i think. they set them up to be here but there was a list you can you can. look very good shape but you know it's a shame that they have to pee on this boat for forty days mr greville how urgent do you think it is to find a safe harbor. well it's very urgent i think the european union has to come to consideration how to handle things to the thing but you have to just tell people

certainly they're just trying to cheat that's the first thing for these people here but for like for the future the european governments have to come to a conclusion how they want to handle this because they'd just go or or prevent people from landing keeping him on a boat and everybody knows it's not going to last multimillion they know are refusing to take in migrants mr going to work can the ship actually go. well i think i'm a teacher i'm in the german parliament to talk to our minister of. the state of your city over you can they can come to germany that will consume lucia that's thirty three thousand german you have also helped pick two to take the refugees to take these people so they can be determined solution a quick tour of intuition but decide to try and other such

a short. protests are happening now and they can they show that the governments have to work together to find a solution for people come over the mediterranean can be the task of these private organizations these n.g.o.s. they do a great job but it should be the job of the governments of europe mr greville i do have to ask you not just italy but also france other european countries have been critical of these n.g.o.s run rescue boats in the mediterranean think that encourage people smugglers to put migrants in harm's way by putting them on the boat what do you think of that perspective. well you know. i'm i'm i'm just a dry land and a lot of these people who are stranded here ought to do the refugees and i think it's a great sort of visit or read a ski trip going across the street across the street in the wintertime and i think

there is there has to be a solution now for these and. it's no longer able to say that you pick up people who are lost and that's the first thing and you can to decide there has to be a solution i'm not sure it's going to be one way and that's true but it doesn't help the situation right now and i don't think very encouraged in going across the street because that's what they want to do anyway. right now going to a member of the german on the right now on board of the sea wasp rescue boat off the coast of them all to thank you so much for joining us here. ok dennis you're with business now and two thousand nine hundred ten starting off with a new chapter in the u.s. china trade dispute that's exactly what it is new chapter and not an end to the trade dispute which everyone would hope for it's been rumbling on of course since march last year and to continue well into the new year has traders on age china

says u.s. representatives will visit beijing on monday for two days of talks to try easing trade tensions president donald trump and his chinese counterpart xi jinping at agreed to hold traditional tariffs as of december the first you agree that lasts ninety days while the two nations work out a more permanent solution the negotiations will start by focusing on steel agricultural products and cars so far hundreds of billions of dollars worth of materials and merchandise have been affected by reciprocal tarps. and the talks to come with some urgency fears of a cooling global economy are becoming real inflation in the eurozone has dropped to its lowest level in eight months consumer prices rose just one point six percent year on year in december fall short of the european central bank's target of two percent analysts blame a slump in oil prices in the final months of last year but inflation in the eurozone has been stubbornly low for years now prompting the e.c.b.

to keep interest rates at historic lows. let's talk about all of this with our financial correspondent in frankfurt and we keep hearing about fear is of a slowdown are we going to actually see a slowdown twenty ninety. from. well buying just as the european central bank winds down its assets purchasing program we're seeing some discouraging figures especially from december i'm not going to make a personal prediction but i can tell you what the comments are saying and some of them are saying that one of the worst things we have to fear is fear itself if we worry too much too much about unjustified things and we might just worry ourselves into a into a recession because we're spending too little so looking at these data that we've seen what we have here is headline inflation that includes energy prices and it's a very volatile goes up and down while core inflation is stable the manufacturing

numbers that we've seen include in december the protests in france also negative of course we have negative things happening like the trade dispute but we also got to be careful not to let that way down to have really if you say you got the numbers down what you're saying is this is all psychological what about the trade school next week what's the likelihood of result there because i'm sure a lot of that is also very psychological. a lot of that is very psychological and donald trump has just lost a lot of leverage because apple came out the one big brand that stands for america you know that has been successful in the past years just came out saying you know this trade trouble that you're creating it's actually hurting us and so that is a lot of leverage john similar situation in the in the chinese economy that's also not fairing very great so there is an incentive to get back to the table not that

there is any breakthrough expected on the vice minister a level for this meeting next week but the incentive is certainly higher than before as inputs thank you very much. a japanese court says it will hold a hearing into the case of next tuesday after lawyers for the former chairman requested an explanation for his detention has been locked up in turkey. arrested him in november charges of financial misconduct. carlos ghosn has been behind bars in this tokyo prison for the last six weeks japanese prosecutors accuse the former nixon boss of financial misconduct the specific accusations against him include under reporting his salary for years enabling him to avoid paying tax on. using company money to pay for personal expenses and shifting seventeen million dollars worth of his own losses on to nissen go on

the island for decades but as modern alternatives grow more popular hong kong could be at risk of losing those fight lights and signs unlocks artisans and activists can say. he is one of the last master craftsman of neon sign it in hong kong business people bring in their handwriting designs that he makes the neon signs that hong kong is famous for he works with glass tubes which he painstakingly bends into shape it's precision work who found his profession by chance. it was the summer holidays when i was eighteen my father thought i was doing nothing so we got me a job with the neon sign maker. who was offered the opportunity to stay on and he decided not to go back to school it's quite a challenge to form the complicated chinese characters the work has remained the

same bending the glass touching the ignition coil. and filling the tube with fluorescent gas all is done by hand but for wu much has changed and. up until fifteen or twenty years ago i worked every day for seven or eight hours making me own troops so. today it's maybe four or five days a month. so within his incl now comes mainly from other jobs the neon signs that used to be hong kong's trademark are becoming a rare sight carden china has been documenting those that remain beneath this is closer to. the hong kong i used to. she runs a group that hopes to protect hong kong's neon heritage many old signs have been taken down because of new safety regulations and a cheaper alternative to neon is replacing those that remain. here until the blue

and yellow one here. after the l.e.d. and then one day i think you can just ask me. you can actually come to. the signs symbolize wealth in a city that once set trends for the rest of the continent for chan a part of hong kong's identity is fading. you're watching g.w. news still to come full of hope these are brookie democrats are determined to give voice to americans who feel shut out by the truck and its tradition but are they ready for the reality of washington politics. and germany will be celebrating the centenary of the powerhouse school of design in twenty nineteen a special edition of arts twenty one looks at our house and the nazis. don't forget you can always get it up you news on the go download our app from global player or from the app store that will give you access to all the latest

to accept that. now to the u.s. where democrats have swept back to power in the house of representatives and they immediately demonstrated their new authority by passing a new budget bill that's nobs president trump's key demand billions in funding for a us mexican border wall the democrats are presiding over the most diverse house in u.s. history which for the first time includes muslim women. everybody. selfies with friends and supporters rushy that's how you can one of the first two muslim women elected to congress a historic moment. so really nice when people like us were offered to me when. i look forward to seeing all the great things that she'll do and all of those that she will represent and the voice that she will provide to to those of us that typically are overlooked. and the congresswoman from michigan still has to learn her way around come up with a hill just like a fellow democrat for

a sleigh from massachusetts who brought her family to celebrate the swearing in day with her i'm humbled i'm grateful and many people have asked me if i'm up for it if i feel pressured either because of historical significance of being a first store because of the crossroads we find ourselves at as a country where the fact that we are coming into congress in the midst of a government shutdown and to that i would just say that i don't feel pressured i feel a tremendous responsibility and i play are doing everything possible to me that every day. the new congress has already made history by seating a record number of women and becoming the most ethnically diverse while the republicans still have more seats in the senate the new democratic majority in the house of representatives is poised to serve as a check of the u.s. president their first challenge as the government shutdown the standoff between the democrats and donald trump could set the tone for

a combative two years. and these two years it's this mormon who will face off against president struck. nancy pelosi next and she is taking the gavel us a new speaker of the house nancy pelosi reclaimed the post she already held from two thousand and seven to twenty eleven nation is in stark. moment two months ago the american people spoke and demanded a new dawn they called upon the beauty of our constitution our system of checks and balances to protect our democracy remembering that the legislative branch is article one the first branch of government co-equal to the presidency and she vision to share. the new majority quickly went on the offensive approving bills to reopen the government but without the money for the border would president trump

demands with a conflict likely to intensify or didn't you elected lawmakers this is only the beginning. now he was only sworn in this week but brazil's new president chair balsa naro has started a perch of the public service also now has authorized the dismissal of some three hundred public servants on temporary contracts since taking office on tuesday of this week targets officials who don't share his administration's far right ideology his own chief of staff has described the move as cleaning the house. and let's talk more about this with renate mater from the institute for latin american studies at the free university here in berlin renate thank you for joining us in our studio and we're talking about three hundred members of the public service who've been dismissed now some could be reinstated we've heard if after their ideologies are examined so to say what do you make of this how significant is this i think also not have created an atmosphere of cold war in which the other the

enemies that the. socialists or communists and everybody who works for the government of the workers' party is considered to be. fought with the ideology of though he does not hit see himself as also. with a strong ideology so i think it's not a matter of cleaning but. really purging the open and and it's not only the like the started by the chief of the stuff but he also said that he would like to see other ministries to follow suit ok so this is this could continue you know there were a lot of fears leading up to him taking office that there would be a real rightward shift in brazil and he did promise a whole raft of measures on the campaign trail what do you think are we really going to see him cement brazil's move to the right i think we can ready a witness that within three four days in office he and his ministers have announced

very strong measures in their action of his from the cities and for instance the minister of agriculture now will be responsible for the my cation of indigenous lands for the management of forests the minister of environment would only. have no political power basically the ministry of education has abolished the secretary for diversity which have fought for gender class racial equality. the ministry of women family. and human rights has said that boys should dress blue and girls should dress think and gender ideology will be fought against some more conservative measures were seen being taken already you're saying yes we could say that in the social area it's like it's a very strong moral crusade against most social movements progressive movements

where we can see already the economic reforms coming up so it's a cultural no liberal direction as well what do you think this means for personal democracy i think that it's going to be hard to test though i think the democratic institutions have already failed in allowing such a figure to reach office as. and i think that the hardest test will be to pass no liberal reforms such as the pencil reform and the minister for infrastructure has announced a very large providers ation program. affecting transport energy and bank the banking system so we have to see how the parliament will collaborate with his government or not it sounds like you are concerned what about a brazilian so this is a deeply divided country how does this new leader unite the country under him. i

think what he's announced measures must keep which we can expect more inequalities more social inequalities racial inequality gender inequality is if he were only contribute to even more divisions in the historical. fragmentation the country will only be missed you just couldn't expect that those affected by his measures would then unite themselves in solidarity but not that he will be able to do so i think you contribute to further the visions in the country so you see the country might be even more divided brazil does have democratic institutions what about the role of opposition who can fight and challenge both sonars power i think the the the political opposition is still trying to figure out how to what's their role in this new. in this new regina it's everything is sort of no one can guess what what's happening and they are trying to unite in

a front against also not oh we need to wait and see all right renata much of from the institute for a lot of our concern is that the free university here in berlin thank you so much for your analysis thank you. right ben is back with more business now and another on happy member of the e.u. . just before years in rome managed to clinch a budget deal with brussels to avoid massive fines for breaking the rules but down to the italian economy persist and many italians are growing tired of e.u. fiscal policy we went to northern italy to hear the opinions of some entrepreneurs . this company and b. tense are has been processing natural stone and marble for more than one hundred forty years but since two thousand and six revenue has dropped by eighty percent. overall my view was that if we used to have higher profits that allowed us to

invest in the workforce and on materials but nowadays with high taxation and banks that explosions we don't make the same profits anymore there's no lack of work it's the taxes that are killing entrepreneurship they're too high with acid. basically slow economic recovery since the financial crisis still weighs on entrepreneurs some say they're tired of living under the e.u.'s strict fiscal rules. and i still think that the e.u. is a good thing. but in asking too much of a silly i don't see this is a good thing. but leaving the e.u. i don't know. despite growing disaffection with the e.u. most entrepreneurs would prefer to stay in the common marcus. i believe that the problem with the e.u. is the one size fits all rules from member states but we're all in different situations we need more flexibility to different situations of every state need to

be taken into account that. her company produces sparkling wine exports to the e.u. account for thirty percent of sales. to. mine and i hope our politicians will think of companies on of those of us who don't want to leave the european union. the italian government has backed down in its budget standoff with the e.u. but until the country finds a way to boost its economy more confrontations can be expected. unemployment in germany rose in december compared to the previous month but for the year as a whole unemployment was the lowest since one thousand nine hundred ninety one especially the number of gainfully employed workers has increased and levels the german economy hadn't seen in over three decades past year ended with a jobless rate of under five percent. it's a man's world when it comes to gaming women make up only a quarter of workers in the sector most of them in marketing and graphics

obstacle. to understand. there's a correlation with technical jobs and opportunities we've neglected within our culture is always been telling young women that's not for you you can't do that image that certain jobs don't even land on their list of possible career paths it's really going. to. crucify and thrown career ideal for women's game development is a communicate a field that can be combined well with family needs and flexible working hours but for more women to become game designers crews a says they need to consider it in the first place. germany celebrating a big cultural highlight this year the one hundredth anniversary of the art school bauhaus the legendary german design school higher near and functional design and modern architecture it was founded in one thousand nine hundred environment by

copious it soon moved to disallow and has been a very influential ever since artists and across germany working in architecture and design created many classic objects that shaped the twentieth century house furniture and architecture are famous all over the world in one hundred thirty three by house shut its doors after the nazis came to power. the number of events are taking place across germany to mark the big anniversary this year and let's talk more about that with a yell does starbucks from d.w. culture she is with us here in studio to talk about one hundred years. yellow thanks for joining us so what is in store for us this year well we have prepared many specials for this important anniversary for instance there is a three part documentary coming up airing from the middle of the general he called . called dollhouse world and this is our film team actually traveled the world to meet with architects urban planners artists from tokyo to

amman to mexico city of chicago new york city everywhere to actually find out how the ball house design principles and social ideals still shape the way we live today but there's also another thing coming up even earlier this weekend it is an arts twenty one special. one hundred where we excell mind the types and myths about bauhaus for instance the question how german actually really is or how male dominated and we find out that there's actually many powerful women behind leading. heads and there's another very important aspect that you actually have also mentioned that the. was closed down due to pressure by the nazis and nine hundred thirty three but the story of the house after the nazis is not as simple as it's mostly depict it's actually so and that all the nazis were against the

principles and also not all nazi. terance are against the nazis so i would say. here is a little preview take a look at one of our reports from the. i'm a compass sign at the nazi concentration camp in. it was designed by the prisoner front. a film about how student and it uses the unmistakable powerhouse typeface just spike the fact that the nazi regime rejected anything to do with powerhouse. official propaganda completely dismissed bauhaus as being bolshevist jewish marxist and anything else the nazis deemed negative. but on officially that stance wasn't as clear as the nazis saw the typical bauhaus functionality as a sign of progress and welcomed its new objectivity. and the

how did the bauhaus respond after nine hundred thirty three. was a leading figure in the battle how school he developed the bauhaus lettering and graphic design. after nine hundred thirty three he served the regimes propaganda catalogues and key exhibitions for the regime exhibitions that promoted nazi ideology and racism. about how school students and teachers who remained in germany and were very eager to continue receiving assignments once he then exhibited little of the bauhaus reformist spirit and ethical principles. he joined. commissioning nevertheless. he had become disillusioned.
