and in the bill by the way they didn't even fight us and most of the stuff ports of entry we have so much money we don't know what to do with it i don't know what to do with all the money they're giving us it's crazy the only place you know want to give us much money one billion three hundred seventy five million dollars sounds like a lot but it's not so much although we're putting it to much better use that it used to be a lot of the past administrations they had it was easy to get they didn't build or they didn't do what they could have done would have been great would have been great to have done it earlier but i was a little new to the job a little due to the profession and we had a little disappointment for the first year and a half people that should have stepped up did not step up they didn't step up and they should have would have been easy not that easy but it would have been a lot easier but some people didn't step up but we're stepping up now so we have

a chance of getting close to eight billion dollars whether it's eight billion or two billion or one and a half billion it's going to build a lot of walls we're getting it done we're right now in construction with wall in some of the most important areas and we have renovated a tremendous amount of wall making it just as good as new that's where a lot of the money has been spent on renovation fact we were restricted to renovating which is ok but we're going to run out of areas that we could renovate pretty soon so we need new wall so i want to thank everybody for being here i want to thank in particular the angel moms and dads for being here thank you very much we have great respect for you the real country our real country the people that really love our country they love you so i just want you to know that i know how hard you fight and i know how hard a fight you're having. i also want to thank all of the law enforcement for the job

you do believe me our country loves you and they respect you greatly and we're giving you a lot of surplus we're giving you surplus military equipment which a lot of people didn't like giving previous to this administration but hundreds of millions of dollars of surplus equipment and as we get it as you know we send it down and you have much better protection. but i really appreciate you being here so the the order is signed and signed the final papers as soon as i get into the oval office and we will have a national emergency and we will then be sued and they will sue us in the ninth circuit even though it shouldn't be there and we will possibly get a bad ruling and then we'll get into the bad ruling and that will end up in the supreme court and hopefully will get a fair shake and will win in the supreme court just like the ban they sued us in

the ninth circuit and we lost and then we lost in the appellate division and then we went to the supreme court and we won and it was very interesting because yesterday they were talking about the ben because we have a ban it's very helpful madam secretary is that right without the been would have a bigger problem we have a ban on certain areas certain countries depending on what's going on in the world and we won but somebody said president trump lost on the band well he's right i lost at the low could he repeated say that we ultimately won it the united states supreme court they don't want to say that they don't want to go that far they were saying how i lost the person sitting right up here donald trump lost on the band yeah i did and then i lost a second time you should have said that too and then it went to the supreme court and no one didn't want to take it that far. but we one of the band and we want to another things to the probably easiest one to win is on declaring

a national emergency because we're declaring it for virtual invasion purposes drugs traffickers and gangs and one of the things just a fetish we have removed thousands of them as thirteen gang monsters thousands there out of this country we take them out by the thousands and they are monsters ok you have any questions you know. john. you were prepared. mr president a lot of the money we sent i was prepared. from. the us very much everyone was expected as he announced he was declaring a national emergency in the united states he got to it eventually he talked about

china trade relations the u.k. and the u.s. trade and he was to talk about success in eradicating the highest caliphates. in syria but you also mentioned the forthcoming a summit in hundred himself and chairman kim of north korea then he got to the business of the day as it were and he talked about confronting a national security crisis on our southern border not just he said because it was a campaign promise he went on to say that everybody knows that walls work so as advertised he has declared a national emergency let's get analysis all of this here in the studio from a bar assault form a political scientist from bob college and also from helena humphrey who's in washington let's start with you in washington head of the main points for you. well what was interesting is that of course we're waiting for him to declare this

national emergency field as you say he eventually got to it and did just that but we also heard from the white house already that he was meant to be doing this at the same time as saying that he would sign off on the spending bill i just want to highlight it that hasn't been done he says that he's going to go back to the oval office and sign that national emergency we are still waiting to find out about the signing of that spending bill which would have hurt a government shutdown here which needed to be signed off on him but in terms of the main points regarding the national emergency as you mentioned he said that he was not doing this because it was a campaign pledge but rather because this is a legitimate crisis i mean in fact he actually characterized this as an invasion an invasion on american soil coming in from the southern border from criminal gangs from drug traffickers he painted a picture of women coming in being gagged in the you know quite some descriptive language there and saying that this was

a national emergency saying that we fight he said that the united states fights wars that have six thousand miles away from home but we do not confront them on our own soil and in the same time you know one of these key takeaways i would say for me is that he spoke about all the people who are trying to enter the united states including people who perhaps are trying to enter. in this caravan from central america he put them all in the same boat saying that this was monstrous despite the fact that many people are coming in through points of entry spite the fact that many people coming into the united states in this way are coming in with asylum claims so heightened very alarming rhetoric there from the president to justify his calling of a national emergency of course for the award men takeaways from north dakota portable. the most important aspects but what i think he used the time for was if

you want to legitimize such a huge spending bill well you have to paint some kind of a picture of the threats in other words it's very. it's hard to understand how you would pay eight billion dollars or six billion dollars depending on what it ends up being what i found interesting is that there was no talk of the smart wall anymore in many ways this felt like an extension of the state of the union address but in that in that particular point it was different because at the time he said well we could also improve and use drones and barbed wire it's a trend he didn't talk about that he also didn't talk about how mexico would would finance this this well that had been due to the campaign promise at the time it's not surprising that he didn't but it's certainly a point that democrats will will will underline and it was interesting to watch the the end of mr trump speech that he went into some detail about the fact that ok i have now signed this bill but it this is not the end of it there is going to be

a long series of challenges but i will when he sort of made a point of laying out that there's going to be a fight now. yeah that was interesting actually the fact that he just did acknowledge the fact that i'm going to go back to the oval office i'm going to sign it essentially no sooner have i signed off on it then there will be legal challenges to it and it will go all the way up to use to the supreme court he said but then he said it's going to pass because this essentially is an invasion and things have passed which were of less drama i suppose and he also mentioned of course that a travel ban from a muslim majority countries which is still in place which ultimately passed the supremes court of oking that as one victory so he's laid the groundwork already for a long battle and as i mentioned previously this may essentially be what he was looking for the only route he could take to make sure that he can build this wall

as he would like waltz getting him past twenty twenty and into detention a another presidential term but as for the talk us or the likely battle ahead so the president has made the announcement what happens now who does what well you know there's going to be attempts to first of all there needs to be a number standing before kinds of lands need to be appropriated or bought from from private owners there has to be well there have to be contracts that are made with you with the firms that actually built the wall there will be court battles especially on the ground of the local scale and on the state level and this will take work but i think what will also see is that there would be some kind of a backlash that could emphasize that yes of course trump is right he didn't just have the complete comparing promise of the war he was also talking about infrastructure finance huge bill that he promised was talking about educational improvements lowering drug pushers and so i think the money that's being spent on

the wall is also money that group be lacking elsewhere and i think that. you know this will be pointed out in public discussions and might harm in the long term this is going to clearly go to be a. topic in the coming weeks and months from now that we thank you professor but it's four months from the bard college in day and i don't know humphrey and washington studio thank you. you're watching d.w. new job as defense minister. british counterpart the gavin williamson of giving the opening address of the munich security conference the conference is three days of high stakes debates and closed door meetings this year brings together an unprecedented number of international decision makers including the largest us company a variety of international organizations has also been shunted including the international monetary fund the world bank and the united nations. chief political correspondent

linda crane is also there in the thick of it to welcome belinda us uniforms alive germany's defense minister spoken about a return of competition between great powers what was she getting at. she was absolutely getting united states unilateralism and and the actions by the united states that are perceived as a rejection of the kind of multilateral cooperation that has been a hallmark of the international order since the second world war i was thinking actually as you were just talking about trump's decision to go ahead and declare a national emergency in order to get the wall built that he's now practicing util lateral ism at home as well as abroad and certainly that is a source of major concern here just one example from the remarks of the german defense minister she reiterated germany's commitment to contributing two percent of

german d. g.d.p. ultimately to the nato budget but she said at the same time that u.s. calls for fairness and burden sharing need to be much larger than simply how much money different members spend she said they also fairness is also about joint decision making when we go in together to a place like afghanistan we go out together so a clear reference there to the unilateralist decision by president trump to withdraw u.s. forces from afghanistan the fact that nato allies saw themselves as being broadsided by that and their real frustration she said there were good talks on the matter yesterday at the nato ministers conference but clearly there is still a great deal of concern and frustration here at the munich security conference and in europe generally about the u.s. essential sensually america first policies. a symbol in the crane at the munich

with the musicians and being part of that magic was difficult for the first. world says dr thanks for the love thank you thank you are my best thanks george feb eighteenth d.w. . hello and welcome this is india i sustainability magazine but trains the spotlight on solutions that could future proof the earth for generations to come gallery take notes from these individual ideas and apply it to another context for

a cleaner greener and a more sustainable planet let's take a closer look at my group coming to you from an unusually chilly website. over the next thirty minutes the game of frisbee is giving hope to the fishing community in chennai. what it takes to run the world's largest school lunch program. and how a wage in the south of bowling decided to go off the grid for the. first a story about renewed hope for some years now traditional fishing communities across india are having to grapple with a. difficult question how can they sustain their livelihood when the future points to a depletion in marine life and an advent of large mechanized strollers surprisingly for the fishing community in chennai the game of ultimate frisbee seems to have beyond so here's how. the.

ultimate frisbee is wildly popular in the southern city of chennai it's vast and open beaches have a lot to do with that. it was brought back by those who studied in american universities where the game originated around sixty years ago all it requires is seven people a disc and open space. playing on the city's beaches is the cement a breakdown of the class divide children from fishing villages on the shore earlier

watched from the sidelines have now begun to join in. more than when i first saw the game it was so cool i wanted to join in and they said ok come and i did it was simply great. rocky's today part of. the professional frisbee club she's one of the few children from the local fishing community to have made it to a team in the national league. as a result of climate change an unplanned development along the coast fishing communities here are more vulnerable than ever to the range of disasters.

they feel strong competition from cruel as this reportedly a drastic decline in marine life and erratic cycling on a constant threat. to eat. the socio economic inequality in these spots has led to limited access to education gender based violence and a lack of all round development in children. this is where ultimate frisbee comes in. free speech has like a feature we believe one is. for

free. and. sports. so we feel that it's a best. approach. by using sports. so we free means that for you to internalize their feelings in the heat of the moment and then communicate in a very calm on all. known body contact young people nowadays i cannot just go nor though space

or other people space so all kind of respecting other people's space. know all one of the biggest. teach. fuel. looks with the children from fishing communities a ranch a night off to school teaching them a variety of life skills to the spirit of the game. to you to. be on the. other. end of the team books off the feet as much as on. ask a lot of questions. so. they open in and then come

up with their opinions so that's a one tool to use discussion the second thing is we won't talk and what if some. are not able to articulate. we'll be. checking. some kind of you want. to. it was guy three morty's brother who encouraged her to come out and play when his team needed more girls two years since that day guy three says frisbee has completely transformed her life and now she works as a facilitator with one all. at full size to be really shy i wouldn't wear what the team wore shorts and t. shirts i still only wear chilli dark trousers and. i used to also feel shy talking to go is that my team completely changed me now i go out by myself only i

never even went to college on my own but now i'm completely comfortable being a. she draws on our own experiences to really understand what the children of the fishing villages go through. and. i was getting this place at the allegheny end of the game really have a spirit circle. which we come prepared with a lesson plan on how to talk to the kids on the. plane to them on how they should tour. what this ng affects other people. these are essential life skills that we want them to learn and.

we want them to how i'd like a happy family where kids can grow in a very healthy way and then. become healthy so when they become actually adult this basically next generation we hope to see more like gender equality and their best buy. and then they kind of understand our feelings and then talk to people are accordingly and then being resilient basically . in any circumstances. age is hardly a factor when it comes to standing up for a sustainable future a sixteen year old book from sweden has been staying over from school on fridays to fight for climate protection what she started is

a domino effect and thousands of students from around the world are joining her to demonstrate in front of parliament under the more fridays for future instead of going to school take a look. it's friday afternoon these teenagers should actually be at school the weather is cold and miserable but they're still gathering here in the center of it and to prepare a protest. fourteen year old francisca vessel has been involved from the start she like the other pupils here wants to see the government take swift action to combat climate change. it isn't actually our job to protest for a better future it's the politicians. they're the ones who should have been changing things long ago that's what they're getting paid for so it doesn't really make sense for us to go out on the street but i think it's important or nothing will happen to. me.

in my state months tens of thousands of children of taking to the streets to protest in a range of countries including australia sweet belgium switzerland and now in germany the government here has committed to phase out coal by twenty thirty eight but these are. young people want to see that happen by twenty thirty the action is known globally as school strikes the climate here it's called friday the future just an excuse to skip school. because i don't see it like that if i wanted to skip school i'd have better things to do than stand out here in the cold. for us to go on strike to show politicians that it's pointless to go to class if we have no future that's what it would be. we want to show that we need change and that's why we're striking on fridays. that the digital generation is protesting on the streets rather than just using online means like petitions has come as

a surprise to klaus her he's a prominent german research on youth unschooling it's an x. and there are existential threats connected to the environmental issue that's why it plays such a big role. anyone who's fourteen fifteen or sixteen years old today knows that in seventy years if things continue as they are existence on this planet will be difficult and that worries young people a lot because that's the shift you want to zero. the young people are risking punishment by skipping school parliament thinks this shows the strength of their feeling about the issue. but will the protests develop into a real long term movement. we had better in the past working out the nuclear movement in germany but that was quite a while ago it was really successful in the end because it was sustained and

passionately aggressive. whether this will be the same i can't yet say but in a few weeks we'll see more clearly if it's a brief rebellion over an issue that has young people agitated or if there's more behind it tomorrow we're going to be fifty. four front it's not a temporary face taking action to protect the environment has become a lifestyle choice for her family. they try to buy local have stopped flying and have even given up the car. they hope to reduce their carbon footprint. that might not be so easy in germany's rural areas the cycling infrastructure and public transport make it simple here in berlin. i think everyone should start fighting for their future now because it's also my future and the future of humanity on this planet this planet that will either be

destroyed or that we try to hold onto. the shores of money i'm incredibly proud of my daughter. that she doesn't spend her afternoons in shopping malls. but does something to make the world better something to preserve it so that it remains beautiful for my grandchildren and i'm really proud looking for. the next protest comes on a school holiday a test of how serious the kids freely are buying clothes new ones second time and getting the latest mobile phone those will be the daily tests they encounter outside of friday's future. not children taking the lead foot of peano planet is definitely essential but we need. to make sure they have the basics to thrive big india for example where until two decades ago children refused to go to school or dropped out early because they went

hungry during school hours one organization took it upon itself to make sure that hunger wasn't the reason a child was deprived of a good.
