a company faces hundreds maybe even thousands of cases against it the judge will often pick one case and say this is the one that's what we're going to use retest the merits were to see how that goes and then we'll produce the others afterwards what was interesting about this case is first of all it's the second case to go to trial i think you mentioned there was another case in august of last year that was in state court in california the first federal trial the federal judge said this will be a bellwether case going forward what was interesting is it was actually separate into two phases one was the evidentiary phase against roundup itself and the other is months on toes of knowledge. of whether round up the chemical in a glass to say it was problematic and it was supposed to actually be an easier case you know months on to win and they didn't. choose among acquired months after just over a year ago now there must have been a sense back then of the potential liabilities of round up which is one of monsanto's best sellers right there more than eleven thousand cases in state and federal court against. now by air related to round up on claims of.

lymphoma or other cancers that were caused by this said because of this when buyer acquired months until last summer the c.e.o. venerable men actually said at the time that the safety assessment of life in state had not changed that they were comfortable comfortable with it at the same time means that they couldn't really understand the full risk in front of them so you can see that there was knowledge of there was a patient they couldn't fully gain but there was also they believe an upside to taking that risk going to get a better picture they just needed to look at investor sentiment the markets have been nervous from the very beginning about this acquisition yeah absolutely i mean so after the first trial for example the stock fell thirty percent because it showed that there was such a nervousness about this legal exposure and it hasn't really come back up since the buyers stock that is at the same time you have to remember that there is an incredible upside seen two months on so and seen to the seat and the street is involved in terms of global global food production which is becoming more and more

relevant issue with climate change with land use things like that so the future prospects of the technology the monsanto offered were seen as such that the the risk perhaps were taking some outside analysts have put the legal exposure for these cases to five billion dollars to settle them for a buyer it acquired months on two for sixty three billion dollars last years that gives you no idea of the scale of perhaps an outside assessment of a legal risk with you know what the money is at stake here to actually acquire this company as this case moves for more about the exact liability numbers stephen beardsley thanks very much for the deputy reasons. to washington now where brazil's president higher also naro as a cemented is political friendship with president gul trump with a visit to the white house the two men share a similar outlook on a number of issues and similar goals for their terms in office. the u.s. president meeting the man dubbed the trump of the tropics. show you both scenarios

swept to office on a pro u.s. platform and donald trump was quick to pick up on their similarities it's a great honor to have president both sonora with us from brazil he has done a very outstanding job ran one of the incredible campaign somebody said it a little bit reminded people of our campaign which i'm honored by the two leaders exchanged soccer jerseys a sign of friendship but also hopes of closer teamwork. trump gave his backing to brazil's bid to join the o.e.c.d. club of wealthy nations he also announced he declared brazil a military ally and he also suggested it could join nato. i also intend to designate brazil as a major non nato ally or even possibly thinking about maybe a nato ally have to talk to a lot of people but maybe

a nato ally but the camaraderie only goes so far after the meeting polson our own ounce he would soon visit china which has overtaken the us to become brazil's top trading partner. our washington correspondent allison this analysis of balls and i was visit to the white house donald trump gave to your bowl so narrow a very warm welcome to washington d.c. both had repeatedly declared donald trump as his pillow political role model and he's now seeking closer ties with the united states it was his first trip abroad and it took him directly to washington d.c. something that would have been unheard of just years ago when the relationship of two countries was a rather complicated one this is supposed to change after today's meeting also because both leaders share similar views on a variety of topics both consider them nationalists both oppose multilateralism and so the talks today were about the situation in venezuela and donald trump said he

supports brazil's bid for closer affiliation with nato and for membership in the o.e.c.d. and that will be a major foreign policy win for the brazilian president on line with also narrow donald trump's relationship with germany's on the macro has gone from bad to worse and a lot about has to do with poland's funding levels for the nato military alliance trump has been pressing berlin to meet its goal of allocating two percent of g.d.p. for defense but the newly released budget shows defense spending still off target triggering a new round of dipshits u.s. ambassador to germany richard goodnow is continuing to raise tempers in berlin on tuesday he accused the german government of quote reducing its already unacceptable commitments to military readiness unquote coing it a worrisome signal to germany's nato allies. and fact the new budget features

a small rise in both absolute military expenditures and the percentage of german g.d.p. spent on defense. but those outlays aren't enough for grinnell or his boss u.s. president donald trump germany is well short of the two percent target agreed to at a nato summit in two thousand and fourteen and expenditures in coming years are set to remain twenty five billion euros below what germany's own defense ministers says she needs. german chancellor angela merkel defended the budget plan as being part of a slow but steady hike in military spending the harmony this year we have one point three five percent of g.d.p. according to growth projections for nato expenditures and we've gone from one point one eight to one point three five in only a few years despite robust growth and next year we'll increase the amount to a projected one point three seven percent of g.d.p. . by the end i'm staying in the german government is annoyed at what they see as

grinnell's meddling a leading member of macros coalition partners the social democrats shot back mr grinnell is a complete diplomatic zero members of the opposition have even demanded that the controversial ambassador be expelled that's a near impossibility but tensions over defense spending between berlin and america's embassador are likely to continue. there were still to come on the show. tensions inside the area where people are concerned about an influx of chinese workers to find out why the city of homs has become a flashpoint between russia and china. but first as to mozambique where aid is starting to get through to communities devastated by cycling six days ago every floods have submerged roads and countless

homes so although aid is now arriving getting into people remains difficult more than two hundred people are confirmed dead in mozambique but the death toll is likely to rise it's being described as the worst humanitarian crisis in mozambique history heavy flooding and prolonged bouts of rain a compounding the destruction week by cycling last week the storm and flood watches not only and roads and bridges they also wiped out communications networks across the region. and many of eat ice victims once again finding themselves in danger. this mother is one of hundreds of thousands who lost their home she's worried about her newborn as food supplies in the shelter for low. they didn't own doesn't last night i haven't eaten anything yesterday i saw that food was running out i went in

asked and they told me that food was over and until now i've had none. that's because the floods and heavy rain which followed in the storm's wake a hindering aid workers efforts in some areas floodwaters and meters deep most rural areas remain cut off from help. bring and. rescue us also working around the clock to save lives many victims as to trapped on rooftops trees and other remote areas and the region is bracing for more heavy rain in the coming days flooding has become the biggest threat mozambique is facing right now. earlier we had a chance to talk with gerald bork from the world food program who's currently in the hard hit city of. the situation here is cheerier aging.

the city is devastated following the cycle in the struggles last thursday night many many people within the city are displaced. sheltering in schools and churches the world food program is distributing emergency rations to them. but the needs are huge outside of the city. the things are taking a dramatic turn. over the weekend to swollen rivers burst their banks and. saying it's. people who overflew those areas yesterday speak. into that and oceans that have completely inundated villages and communities. tens of thousands of people were living there. those who overflew saw many people

crammed onto the roof. and on the issue it's over land. the priority now is to rescue those people. and bring them to safety. of. a major operation that would accommodate perhaps hundreds of thousands of people displaced by the flooding the world food program is bringing in a helicopter is. the one thirty's. also bringing in telecommunications people to repair damaged infrastructure so that the response can be accelerated but a huge amount of assistance is required. to. they're of the world food program to russia now the country's economy is badly in need of a boost so moscow is increasingly turning to china to help grow and modernize its

economy and that means more chinese workers are heading into russia but that's causing tensions especially in siberia and the east as the w.'s mirror drugstores found in the city of all. let us through get back everybody back fear and loathing in siberia the fear of thousands of chinese coming to live and work. just as you please i'm not leaving i'm coming in. this public hearing is supposed to reassure people who are upset about a new housing center for chinese workers three thousand of them are set to come to . but many people couldn't even get through the door and they're upset. do we go in last night and cranes are busy behind high fences to keep curious locals from seeing him. residents are suspicious. but you

why should i let the chinese take over my country this is the land of my ancestors might be a bit off with them with their building this little chinese republic here they're taking our land. the shit out you do not need to boast of is furious he used to serve as a communist party representative in the state parliament he can't let go of politics he still misses the soviet union and like many others he still holds on to the hold traditions. nearby need to do because my heart and soul to see what's happening in my country. croce miss laura thanks corruption is slowly but surely taking over a country needed in them set up and libya right now says the. representatives for energy giant gazprom told me these fears are exaggerated and will soon be a thing of the past but they didn't want to go on camera. that's not the case for the chinese engineers and specialists who work for an industrial construction firm

that has a contract with gazprom to modernize siberia's gas industry right now about five hundred specialists are here thousands of workers will come soon. but your graphic will get us through the komodo the chinese go to work at six in the morning and come back at eleven o'clock at night. for the shots. that doesn't leave much time to think about the russian residence but in order to avoid further provoking the russian population a living facility has been set up at the edge of the city and a former children's summer camp our correspondent spoke to this chinese man using his smartphone as an interpreter he says he sees russia as a friendly country. thought the tallest of his afraid that more and more chinese people will come to siberia but i wanted to put it's quite simple the people in a position to do something about this to make sure things are done according to law

they have their own financial interests this would use a of course russia get something out of this partnership to it exports its own raw materials to china some sports now in germany's football team kick off their twenty nine hundred campaign tonight with a friendly match against serbia that will be followed by a crucial match against the netherlands come sunday now these are germany coach who loves first game since he surprisingly three key players from the squad missed the first day of training because of a dental appointment. healthy and ready to talk shop in germany coach live. better now on sunday i had to go to the dentist for emergency root canal treatment . an appointment that may have been just as painful as many of his team's matches last year despite the bad results his decision last week to x.

months hummels drone both saying i'm thomas miller was heavily criticised it's the biggest overhaul of his tenure eight of the current squad players are still eligible for the under twenty one's team. would just be by saying that yes we're not going to completely change all style of play that would be wrong we've had a lot of success with it for many years we have to make some adjustments now corrections even. what's important is more speed more dynamism more determination in our play because attributes embodied by leroy sunday the manchester city forward didn't make the world cup squad now the twenty three year old has a leading role. i set myself the goal of taking more responsibility on the pitch i want to pick up where i left off in the last two games but i think there's still plenty of room for improvement i niggas that. he's certainly ramped up his styling efforts doesn't fit the classical mold of

a leader but already players look to him for guidance like debutante. finitism few i'm sure you don't think being a leader has anything to do with age and when i look at leroy's development he's made a lot of good decisions. so i think that one can definitely look at him as a role model understand. where the new young teams journey will take them will be revealed in the matches against serbia and the netherlands. and now what makes you happy it's a good question to ask as it is the internet. national day of happiness established by the un seven years ago we asked our correspondents around the world to find out what makes people happy. with their ship. to wake up every day next to her that's happiness for me. you want me to reply as well
