art sure it's gone in for migrants try. to get out of that. business v.w. news live from berlin is this the end of arms control. the united states will therefore suspend the sabbagh ations under the n f treaty effective february second . the united states says that it will pull out of a key nuclear disarmament pact in six months we'll be live in washington and to moscow also coming up sniffing glue the street kids of ethiopia's capital addis

ababa are often forced by their parents or child trafficking networks to work on the streets or have a special report. i'm sorry kelly welcome to the program the u.s. says that it will withdraw from a key arms control treaty secretary of state might pump aoe announcing that the u.s. will suspend its compliance with the intermediate range nuclear forces treaty with russia tomorrow saturday and withdraw from the accord in six months of moscow does not end its alleged violation of the pact now the us of the soviet union signed the i.n.f. treaty back in one nine hundred eighty seven now the u.s. says that a new generation of russian cruise missiles violates that pact here's what u.s.

secretary of state my pump aoe said just a few minutes ago. russia's violation puts millions of europeans and americans a greater risk limbs to put the united states at a military disadvantage and undercuts the chances of moving our bow out a relationship in a better direction it's our duty to respond appropriately when in agreement so brazenly disregarded their security is so openly threatened we must respond let's get more now on that announcement we are joined by our very own alexander phenomena who is standing by in washington d.c. so let's talk a little bit more about that alexander because you know we heard that the u.s. will exit the treaty in six months according to the plan is there room to salvage the deal in the meantime now it's really it is true that secretary pompei i said today that the u.s. is hopeful that russia will return into compliance with this treaty and that is willing to continue talks with the russians however we have to say that it's very

likely that and then agreement can be found within this short period of time for two reasons first of all the u.s. has been complaining about russian style lation of this treaty for years now and the trump administration has recently tries to increase the pressure on russia with a mix of diplomacy and sanctions but nothing happens so it is rather unlikely that russia is going to change its behavior and the second reason is that we have to consider who is now the you asked national security adviser is john bolton who is known for his skepticism and criticism of the nuclear arms control treaties and at the moment he seems to have the president's ear and we're seeing that hawkish approach to policy playing out pump aylwin time saying that russia is missile program that it puts millions of europeans at risk what is moscow's

capacity according to washington. well we're talking here about one particular missile system it's nine am seven to nine and according to western officials russia has been accused of having deployed four battalions with equipped with this system so it's quite a number only know it russia is said to have nearly a hundred of these missiles and this is why the u.s. is now seeing russia is not complying with this treaty why should we be the only ones bound by this treaty the other thing we have to add here is china of course a senior administration official told us today that you asked to believe china has thousands of these missiles and china is of course not restricted old by any treaty now alexander phenomena in washington thank you.

for well it's take a closer look now at the i.m.f. treaty it was signed back in one nine hundred eighty seven toward the end of the cold war with the goal of eliminating a whole category of nuclear missiles its breakdown has sparked fears of a new arms race. this is the russian cruise missile that the u.s. says by late said joint on this treaty the s.s.c. eighty said to have a range of more than five hundred kilometers which would break the i.n.f. treaty just last week parts of the system are on your conflict display near moscow u.s. president donald trump has been threatening to pull out of the pact since the end of last year. russia has not one orchard way out of the agreement so we're going to terminate a great britain we're going to pull out the u.s. lead on his control negotiate a has told g.w. that the government is using the move to force russia's hand and we will suspend it

and then a six month clock runs if you will during that time russia still can get back into compliance but it frees our obligations under the treaty so we suspend our obligations with the intent to withdraw if we don't get back in compliance but we have a blighted by the treaty for the entire time and by suspending their obligations that we'll be able to do the research and development of similar systems that rationale has fully fueled it and in the field. which russian president vladimir putin has tonight breaking the agreement and won't budge. it was an historic moment when in one thousand nine hundred eighty seven russian president mikhail gorbachev and u.s. president ronald reagan signed the i.n.f. treaty it marked to change of course off to decades of nuclear tensions during the cold war years. the treaty ban to whom brown do inched missiles with ranges of between five hundred and five and

a half thousand to kill him. it is those who felt most at risk during the cold war were countries across europe. but even germany's foreign minister heiko must recently held talks with america's secretary of state's mike pompei if it meets the treaty is no longer a working. order going on or without the nuclear missile treaty there would be less security but we recognize that this treaty has been violated by the russian side and that during the last sixty days unsuccessful attempts have been made to clear up the accusations for more transparency and more information. in so far as this is a treaty between two signatories and that one is in violation of it the treaty is de facto suspended. all psychotic because that. pressure is mounting on russia to save the treaty but for now it appears to be dead. so let's take

a closer look now at russia's arms program which has sparked so much contention we are joined from moscow by defense analyst and howard and you know published we heard there washington saying that these new missiles on the russian side that these cruise missiles they put millions of european lives at risk is that accurate . well the possibility of a no european war is there and it appeared somewhere maybe in fourteen that the east and the possibility is actually growing without the eye and therefore it will be worse but i would not believe that the strategic worse the possibility grows but it's still a possibility there these missiles are of course an additional danger but the russian already had similar missiles the boy gunships on bombers so it doesn't dramatically immediate we change the situation but tell us i mean how i mean

certainly it will impact the dynamics because i mean russia has repeatedly unveiled new missiles so if the treaty is indeed dead. what do you anticipate can we see moscow excel orating its arm program arms program ever faster because that's what people are really worried about here a new arms race. again a new arms race is possible but it will take time to take up momentum russia has the possibility to deploy long range cruise the same or less crews that they have on ships can be deployed or basically trucks on the land want yours and it's maybe ten twenty times cheaper to buy a truck than to buy a frigate and to maintain a truck than a frigate but the united states right now does not have anything to deploy on land for the coming servos years so that means an arms race as in the eighty's when both

sides deployed on land right now immediate we will not happen but they may happen in the coming years that's true or ok so at least in the short term a bit of hope there but i mean what do you see you know if we're looking at this proactively what do you see as the kremlin's to achieve jake aim here and do you see any room to get it to reconsider expanding its arms program in the way that it has done and in the way that the united states has criticized it for doing it again russian official documents at least that part of them that somehow known say in that these decisions were made that you're in thirteen fourteen that the threat of war is growing russia could be attacked from all sides by enemies and we're building in norma's perimeter defense. spending lots of money up through young dollars on rearmament preparing for the pot very high probability of a war happening in the twenty's and that is the russian strategic assessment of the

threat and right now i don't see how it can be dramatically changed by any kind of negotiation ok so it's part of a larger strategy defense analyst public felgenhauer in moscow thank you so much for joining us to share your expertise thank you. all meantime here in germany the end of the i.n.f. treaty well we're reawaken memories of the cold war nuclear standoff germany was still divided between east and west when the treaty was signed back in one thousand nine hundred seven and both countries were on the front line of the arms race speaking after the u.s. announcement chancellor angela merkel said that what she called the window of dialogue with russia should stay open have a listen to this. it's clear to us that russia has violated this treaty and that's why we need to speak to russia from the german side the foreign minister and i will

do everything we can to enable discussions within these six months. back in the one nine hundred eighty s. nuclear missiles were stationed in both east and west germany by the soviet union and the united states it lets many here fearful of living on the brink of nuclear war so hundreds of thousands of west germans protested the deployment of american nuclear weapons in their country. travel to the southern city of how braun where american media range missiles were stationed in the one nine hundred eighty s. here in this clearing in southern germany american nuclear missiles were stationed during the one nine hundred eighty s. the only building left of what used to be the u.s. army vaulted to base this barrack number nine zero one american soldier larry nichols was stationed here in the eighty's when one of the worst situations imaginable actually occurred on january eleventh one thousand nine hundred five a person two missile exploded one thought it was a nuclear explosion it was

a shocker i mean we're talking about a nuclear weapon carrier or rocket motor and for something like that happen here the hype of the cold war. the whole world was alarmed. three u.s. soldiers died sixteen were seriously wounded nichols created the memorial in their honor he never got over his fear of nuclear weapons. you didn't know exactly what was going to happen but you knew what you had and what you were capable of doing. and that was frightening you know. it was only after this accident that the people of had been were informed that nuclear missiles were stationed directly in their vicinity it took another three years for the missiles to be removed after the i.n.f. treaty was agreed on the title was the first base in germany to remove and destroy its nuclear missiles he's a bishop knows the story from her parents and from her high school classes she's

a member of the local green party and actively involved in protests against nuclear armaments he has recently i'm terrified by this i think that there's nothing more important than keeping world peace in particular that no new nuclear weapons are employed also that is he countries as possible have nuclear weapons so that accidents are less likely to happen. she meets larry nichols the former soldier are. both worry that history could repeat itself. trump ishant has said that he wants to back out of the nuclear missile treaty what's your opinion on this. new u.s. missiles nichols is unsure how he feels about that america and america is in a very very difficult situation at the moment and my opinion is that everyone with a listen surely in the one nine hundred eighty s. there were massive demonstrations against u.s.

missiles across germany including here and. he's a bishop title would attend a protest march if there were one today. i would definitely go out and demonstrate it's very important to me that peace remains our top priority i would definitely go out and join a protest for this cause. back at the former volatile base the old u.s. soldier and the young pacifist share the same fear that the arms race between russia and the us will start up again and no one will have learned from the mistakes of the past. well now let's get a quick check of some other stories making news around the world another democrat has announced his candidacy for next year's u.s. presidential election cory booker is a u.s. senator from new jersey and before that he was the mayor of the city of newark he joins a rapidly growing crowd of candidate seeking the democratic party's nomination. brazilian authorities fear that last week's collapse of a mining dam may have polluted the nearby cell for cisco river tests show that the

deutsche bank is on the right path now we need to take the next step will continue to cut costs in twenty nineteen and invest in growth would like to see it invokes to invest here but it's hard to see where that growth will come from deutsche is facing weakness in its traditional bull walks of investment banking and wealth and bond management. and germany's biggest lender still seems to dancing from one scandal to the next last autumn deutsche is offices were raided as part of a money laundering investigation and is facing renewed scrutiny in the u.s. over its business dealings with president donald trump. maybe that's why dosha boss saving didn't comment on profit projections for this year or on a possible merger with germany's second largest bank comet's bank. residents of a russian city south of moscow are facing harassment and even prison sentences this is the punishment for their efforts to raise awareness of

a local garbage dump that they say is making many residents sec the waste is trucked in from the russian capital and the authorities seem to want people to keep quiet about it. in the early hours secret service agents stormed. his apartment they rifled through the belongings of the thirty two year old office worker and her six year old daughter so they came at six o'clock in the morning six men. they went through all my personal possessions they were looking for anything illegal it was horrible very discomforting humiliating all this just because i'm fighting for our rights. this isn't the only time the secret service has confiscated computers hard drives mobile telephones and credit cards the same thing happened to fourteen other activists one of them was even taken into custody

they have one thing in common they're protesting the disposal of most of its waste in the city of and they believe landfill guidelines are not being followed they fear for the health of their families and friends. someone doesn't like the fact that we and other activists are demonstrating against the waste disposal and the building of a new waste containment plant we're fighting for our houses some of us have houses only one kilometer from the waste disposal zone where trash is continually being dumped. in the evening the activists meet in a cafe. lawyers advise them. they discuss the next steps they refused to give up despite the secret service's attempts to scare them and this was just simply it's all connected to the protests against the garbage dumps it's been a problem for a while and no one seems to be solving it. you know most of them while we were shooting this reporting columnar week to wish you'd away. from.

the police took our passport details. it came out of nowhere the police have put one activist behind bars they have confiscated the computers of fourteen activists the activists have been pushing back against mountains of garbage the dubbing brought from moscow to this small town truckloads of pressure from the capital every single day the activists and thousands of residents were and are worried about the health of their families. well now what happens when development and growth are concentrated in cities and not in the countryside in ethiopia rapid urbanization is especially visible in the capital addis ababa now the city has seen an influx of more than two million people in the past twenty years its size has almost doubled to over four million but job creation and

construction of schools and housing have not kept pace the results when he children are forced to live on the streets. which are reports. the youngest children are not even six years old this boy is begging for anything just to survive he sniffing glue it beats the pain of hunger a common sight in the capital's main square. where they try to escape poverty in the countryside or problems within their families but very often these children are somebody or parents to be able hoping they may find a job and become a source of income ever being here on their own young and vulnerable they face new difficulties the last official survey put their numbers in the capital at twelve thousand but that was almost a decade ago many n.g.o.s believe today's figures chaya one of them retrack provides temporary housing for street children this place is just four girls. last

year a retraction more than five hundred children and adults here and they have a chance to be children again. this fourteen year old girl arrived a couple of weeks ago. to go and been in my family promised i'd be able to go to school but instead i had to work. she says she was twelve when she ended up as a domestic helper working fifteen hours a day and subjected to abuse. after two years she flight such stories are all too common according to a minute to dare say a social worker she helps these children cope with their trauma we increase them to feel safe and protected and most of them came here having oil passing through different situations so in order to mitigate this abusive situations we learn and we believe that these stations or this program's help that is to become

a normal person retracts main goal is to reunite children with their families and raise parents' awareness that child labor is illegal without much government assistance however there is very little small charities can do to provide long term support. these boys found work shining shoes a goal to earn their own living. i'd like to quit this work as a shoeshine or go to school and live a better life but it's not easy to get out of the situation so this is my life for now that one day i want something better that's my dream. as another night falls in this rapidly growing city no one knows how many thousands of children will be sleeping in this streets one of the challenges facing the government is to get a fresh count. sports now and the january football transfer window has

closed meaning that clubs can no longer sign players for the rest of the season most teams around europe have kept their purse strings tight but some big names have made the last month including to the bundle. a low key arrival that summed up the january transfer window gone thought the equine joined english side chelsea on loan the london club can make the move permanent for thirty five million euros a type of deal that has been common over the last month it's very reluctant to spend in england and italy and just about everywhere that's partly down to the financial fair play problem many clubs can't afford to buy they can only invest in loans christian police sic is another player who's been loaned straight back to dortmund for the rest of the season this after the blunders league club sold him to chelsea for sixty four million euros that price tag makes his move the most

expensive of this transfer window and the biggest move into the bundesliga was amadou haidar as transfer to rb leipsic he cost the club nineteen million euros and treads a familiar path he's the fifteenth player to move from red bull salisbury to red bull owned leipzig. youth has been a trend among bundesliga signings league leaders dortmund brought in twenty year old argentinian leone out of the ballet to be as they look to stay ahead in the title race stuttgart new center back on cabbage is even younger and another teenager to arrive in the bundesliga is byron's out phone so davies the canadian joins the reigning champions for ten million euros as their only major newcomer but overall it was a quiet transfer window for the bavarians who were unable to make a star signing this january. a quick reminder now the top stories we're following for you here at the deputy u.s. secretary of state might come pale says the trumpet ministration is suspending its
