just spent feeling tired all during a career spanning nearly seventy years hamburg worn designer was one of the most prolific and modern fashion. he was a superstar among fashion designers the unmistakable karl lagerfeld complete with iconic sunglasses and long powdered white hair. but german design has spent more than six decades working in fashion he was an all around a to stick talent who became a legend in his lifetime. believe minute of the air they were living in a very very fast paced age and you have to keep up with things because if you don't you get behind you that in this profession you need to be healthy because the patients need to get on top of that suits me perfect tempo made for the fast life which we all want to put but if the hardest temple bit. karl lagerfeld was born in

hamburg in one thousand nine hundred thirty three to some of the wealth effect trio now he moved to paris in one thousand fifty three. or year later he won an international fashion design competition with the wu cold that he just signed himself from then on he seemed unstoppable. like a folk work for the top priest in fashion brands he became artistic director of kuwait in one nine hundred sixty three twenty years later he will invigorated it then flanking brand chanel. strictly to be able to do what i want without having to worry about money nor do i have an f. robbed of his foot on that we don't need to worry about anything that's the luxury of should know that we can do what we want of what. extravagant presentations formed the high point of every paris fashion show the changing sides order signed by lagerfeld. he was also a publisher if we took and a collector of antiques. for rights he was the name of the gay. a money came to

his many muses to among them but used to shelby county invest in a song and clodius ship. with my feet a move that they give doesn't have to have in a museum just told. there's a kind of a how shall i put it off but it doesn't turn over that happened so frequently that . you have to stay flexible because i'm finding. that. despite being highly media savvy in his public life he kept his cards close to his chest when it came to his private life notorious workaholic his constant aim was to improve to get better. but. i'm never satisfied and as long as you're never satisfied if you keep going as soon as you decide you're content with yourself or couldn't be any better it's time to call it a day but that's all i found lagerfeld and iconic design a good fashion history. so much admired

by the fashion world but what about the rest of us mere mortals we asked people in berlin the what they thought about germany's most famous quotes your designer to make my living on because he was with me all of my life and he would often appear with cloudy issue and i thought she was great and that's why i found him clips amazing and. i think he's passed the boundaries of fashion despite having a very simple and elegant designs e.d.'s and the taste for lay off a nose and i've always admired him for that he was no attention seeker but that. isn't that old i'm really affected i'm even wearing his lipstick today it's really say he had a huge impact on the fashion world but everyone passes away sooner or later by.

three sons of color of course it's very big because he was famous and was very influential in the world of fashion. i don't personally wear any of his designs. but i'm not the biggest fan of his clothing but it's still a shame there's a lot of. already done for your reporter pablo foley is joins me now here on the set to discuss this most iconic german designer problem good to see you know we just heard from people on the street some reactions and i imagine lots of tributes are pouring in from his colleagues in the fashion world you're absolutely right and we saw in the report there before some of the colleagues actually who were very quick to offer of you know their sadness and condolences and one of those most iconic will say faces in the fashion world is claudia schiffer she said the car was my magic dust and he tries transformed me from a shy german girl into

a supermodel he taught me about fashion style and survival in the fashion business and often obviously he told her very well because she went on to hold the record for the most number of times she appeared on the front of a magazine cover so that was pretty incredible we've also heard from colleagues such as donna tell of her sacha who had really wonderful things to say she said that he was a genius and that he touched the lives of so many including her and her brother johnny who was murdered several years ago and she said that she'll never forget his incredible talent and and this inspiration and finally one of the biggest names will say the most notorious critics in the fashion world anna wintour of course the editor in chief of vogue she had some very kind words to say she said he was generous beyond measure and he was deeply kind and she will miss him so very much so plenty of reaction out there and sadness to his passing. what was the secret to his. long generally because he's been around for nearly seven decades it's

incredible really isn't it because this is a man who was eighty five years old and it's almost hard to believe that he was eighty five years old because he was almost timeless he was around for so long but he was also he knew how to modernize have to stay with the times he was you know very we're seeing images here come in he was very you know young at heart he had this incredible energy he took over chanel in the early one nine hundred eighty s. when it was practically you know dead and buried it was very antiquated he came in it brought energy change things but he meant tamed you know elements of the brand that were sort of iconic and then out of his own touches and nowadays you know chanel is what it is it's one of the biggest names in the industry and also anything he seemed to church sort of turned to gold he was very had of his time he cooperated with high street fashion brand patron and many years ago now at the start of two thousand is that was almost you know it was a very strange think in a way back then to do to see if designer bring high fashion to the high street but

he managed to do that he was also incredibly active on social media and you know he really enjoyed it he reveled in it and also he had a very good good sense of humor and that seemed to be repeated throughout a lot of the comments that we've read on social media he in fact how to very interesting we'll call it relationship with his cat shoe pet who had the cat has its own social media accounts and we could guess that he was behind those social media accounts and you know he had a very sharp tongue and so this is somebody who is certainly going to be remembered for many many of those things but most of all i would say is that which aren't. on the late karr a logger fell to his death at the age of eighty five in paris thank you. partnering up to speed now with some of the other stories making news around the

world. pakistan's prime minister iran han has warned his country will retaliate if india takes military action following last week's deadly attack in the disputed kashmir region pakistan based militant group of jewish morcombe it claimed responsibility for the attack on a security convoy but a top and you know terry commander in kashmir accuses pakistan's intelligence agency of being behind the assault. lawmakers in ukraine have passed a constitutional amendment that commits the country to joining european union and nato present press or portion goes says ukraine will make a formal bid to join the e.u. by twenty twenty three although he admitted that date is ambitious the move was welcomed by european council president oliver thomas but it's likely to anger russia. u.s. senator bernie sanders has announced he will run for president again in the twenty

twentieth's actions sanders ran for the democratic presidential nomination back in two thousand and sixteen but ultimately lost out to hillary clinton sanders made the announcement in a radio interview saying that the current occupant of the white house was quote in better segment of the country. and we stay in the u.s. sent a group of first sixteen states led by california is suing the trump administration over its declaration of a national emergency while they claim the plan to appropriate funds to build a wall along the mexican border violates the constitution while the president's emergency declaration is also drawing opposition from some civil society groups. and we're doing it in food view of the white house. in new jersey. texas. on the inside carolina.

and in colorado a grass roots show of force and opposition to the us president in colorado we will be on the side of the rule of law was the end because colorado would be over by this illegal action having fun as there are dedicated to peace and here moved elsewhere we will be joining in action to challenge it was there are among sixteen states to challenge what they see as a cash grab taking disaster relief money to pay for a more than two thousand kilometer long vanity project on the mexico border the wall standoff came to a head on friday when president trump said he would invoke a rarely used power bypassing congress to fund his campaign promise i could do the wall over a longer period of time i didn't need to do this but i'd rather do it much faster

for his opponents that statement appear to undermine his case there's a crisis president trump got it right when he said. he didn't have to do this but i would know that pressure is mounting from within his republican party with senators objecting i think it's a bad idea whether the last currently written permits it or not if it does then i it's a moment to sort of study whether congress has delegated to much power to the executive but i actually i just think it's about being. arrived back at the white house donald trump may have missed the protests but the brewing political right will be harder to escape. now every year there is surely gives a freedom of speech a war to an individual or group of individuals who have championed human rights and free speech in the media often and great personal risk this year the war goes to journalist anabel hernandez for her work investigating mexico's drug cartels and exposing corruption in the mexican government her books on narcotics trafficking

have sold hundreds of thousands of copies worldwide bringing her international acclaim and now his work has shed light on the collusion between corrupt government officials and drug lords while dozens of mexican journalists laker lost their lives trying to uncover these very stories hernandez is currently living in exile because of threats on her life. mexico is one of the deadliest countries for journalists. last year alone ten journalists were killed apparently as retribution for their work. especially at risk are those who dare to ask questions about mexico's drug cartels. the country's war on drugs has claimed tens of thousands of civilian lives in the past two decades the m.p. journalist anabel had an end as is a survivor her family has been threatened at gunpoint and someone once left a box of decapitated animals on her doorstep. popular two thousand and ten book

narco land investigates ties between drug cartels and the mexican government she says her work has put her life at risk. many of the shots of the mexican government tried to kill me know this a lot got the noise chapo guzman was the mexican government and tried to kill me asked have been trying to kill too many other journalists in my sheikha that trying to say that true about these pollution hernandez now lives in exile in europe where she continues her research for her efforts to expose corruption dutch avila has awarded her the two thousand and one nine hundred freedom of speech award. well these things that work came in that very sensitive moment in my in my life. because outside from mexico i feel very alone i feel that i feel a lot. but this one for me. he said kind of much more than

a war a son he died. on a visit to mexico the director general of dutch avella explained the decision to award the prize to hernandez. she stands for a lot of mexican journalists who have a really difficult job here in a country where corruption and not cause criminality is very high to do their job i don't think so it's a well deserved all award for her and for all mexican journalists and then those hopes to return to mexico one day to be closer to her family she was glad to see mexico's new administration take a stance against government corruption but she believes it will take courageous deeds not just words to pull her country back from the brink. and to tell us more about this year's recipients of the freedom of speech award as you know as poll. editor in chief hi. i'm bill hernandez is now effectively

forced to will live in europe because of the threats to or her a wife can she still effectively carry out her work. well you know if she would be living in mexico she probably would be killed. very soon so this is the only way for her to continue her work she told us that she is traveling back sometimes to the country she's obviously obviously very very connected she has many sources there and she also told us that with a new president obama during she has some hope that her case or that the opportunity to work become will become a little bit easier let's listen to what she said when she learned about the award . grateful for the freedom of speech award because i think it can a way to recognize of the international community. that these things sastre humanitarian that exist in mexico it's not just us possibility of the mexicans of

them or the mexican government or the mexican cartels this is also a huge responsibility of the international community because all these innocent drugs that are right here it is because x. east at huge market of consumers and also government that that get inside these drugs also because the mexican cartels laundry their dirty money their blood money in peace kind of a huge business. now and i said i want to take away from the achievements of one about her not best there's so many brave journalists out fair risking their lives day in day out just doing their job can you talk us through the reasons that. picked out about her nanda specifically for this year's award. well you know she's working since more than twenty five years and

a huge amount of pressure she's really risking her life she still of risking her life but she has been under a lot of danger while she was working with in her own country she has been. right she has been written a couple of really important books she's one of the most accomplished female journalists i would probably say in the world as you just mentioned mexico is one of the deadliest countries for journalists and actually the country was many many murders tens of thousands of people people's get killed there every year so that was one reason but as. peter limburg said when we award her we also want to award all these journalists working was in mexico trying to really dig out the truth to challenge the government and by doing some investigative work so she stands really for more than just herself. what do you think needs to be done

to promote press freedom around the world. well let me start maybe with mexico i mean she herself talked a little bit about the reason why do so was super hard to report in mexico it is the government who feel is in this to go to the journalist but it it's also the publishing houses and this is true for many other countries as well they just suddenly do interesting interested in publishing the truth so therefore it's very important for us to storage the role of that we really try to work within these markets in these languages for example with latin america american service within the spanish language so we broadcast into countries like mexico because this is one possibility well to tell the truth and to fight for freedom of speech. to intercept all the w.'s the editor in chief joining us live from bonn thank you so much. europe and the u.s. are at odds over the fate of european nationals who travel to syria to join the

so-called islamic state washington is putting pressure on countries like germany france and the u.k. to take back captured fighters and their families and put them on trial here in usenet one german woman who was and i asked so-called i asked wife but who fled as u.s. led forces attacked last stronghold in syria. whole refugee camp in syria home to many of the so-called islamic state winds and their children fleeing the terror group's last stronghold in the country among them nineteen year old leonora she was one of the last german i-s. wives to leave the city of. jenin husband and i asked fighter is refusing to give up but he let her and the children go. in cycles and then i would say that it was when i asked lost control of rocca that things got really bad. for me as just before i left islamic state it was horror complete hora i was in. and i nearly

starved. i asked fighters in and now surrounded by soldiers from the syrian democratic forces and islands of kurdish and arab militias fighting is on hold the two sides are in talks the few hundred i asked fighters in by bruce want to be evacuated with their families to the jihadist stronghold of in western syria but the s.d.f. is refusing it once complete surrender. is the last i asked basti and in syria administratively it's long been in ruins i have number plates and now history. area they control has shrunk considerably and it's clear they have hardly any radios so communication between them is minimal. the i.r.s. fighters in bruce have just two options fight own or go to prison that includes the

foreign jihadists among the many germans the s.d.f. says their home countries must now take responsibility for them. just don't have the resources to try them for the crimes that they've perpetrated against the syrians and the iraqis. and so we'll do all we can just send those arrested back to their home countries. meanwhile i asked wives slightly annoyed hoping to come back to germany and start a new life leonora says she knows that won't be easy. because of all the attacks and fronts germany is almost certainly terrified of having i asked return ease back and i'm sure everyone is saying i won't create any problems there could be one or two who do intend to carry out terrorist attacks but as far as i and the women whom i've met in the unicef camp concerned we just want to get home and

finally live at peace. full life again. but it's not clear when leonora and of the gemini its members will be able to make their way home from syria and on to what conditions. turning out to europe's top club tournament now and the round of sixteen in the champions league while tonight's premiere match up sees england heavyweights liverpool hosting byron munich and german cochairman cup has managed to bring new energy to liverpool and is gaining almost legendary status in the legendary city. liverpool loves its legends among them the beatles and hometown club liverpool f.c. since its foundation eight hundred ninety two the club has won eighteen league titles but it's been twenty nine years since they were last champions but her coach jurgen cook their fans are allowing themselves to dream big again the best manager
