of the girl who's thirteen at the time is reimagined for the instagram generation. i'm still gail welcome to the program venezuela's president nicolas maduro has called on the military to fight anyone plotting a coup this after the country's self declared president why don't call for a series of strikes hoping to force majeure out of power why there has described this week's violence disruptions as the final phase in our singer doro in the protests have not broken the political stalemate clashes yesterday trackers m f one woman dead and dozens injured why don't declare himself on his right wrist bands from president back in january a move supported by the united states germany and several other european allotted.

american countries. now are. so given that germany is one of the countries that are recognized quite as interim president is it going to follow up its warm words with action well joining me now is undressed nick he's a member of the german parliament and speaks on latin american foreign policy for chancellor merkel's c.d.u. party welcome to g.w. what's your take on the situation in venezuela hello to berlin i think clearly we sit facing a very intense situation in venezuela there is a standoff between the marine and the. interim president who we and fifty fifty other countries worldwide have recognized as legitimate. there is a stalemate in this power struggle a lot of the discussion i think is now on winning the loyalty and the support of the different parts of the military we see the faces of general strikes in the next

couple of days so this situation is likely to intensify even further as we go along so what you've actually done is because it's just told us the facts as they are i'd be interested in your opinion why do you think this is going to go which way do you think it should go. i think we have a clear position that you undertow is a legitimate interim president of venezuela in accordance with the constitution of n.s.a. and. we call on everyone involved to refrain from violence and seek a peaceful solutions to a national dialogue and a democratic transition that can only be resolved through fair and free elections and to enable that and to make that possible i think. my door has to step aside i think there were rumors the last couple of days he was already plotting his refuge to cuba i'm not sure how. realistic that scenario is but

it's clear that neither the majority i do at the moment can it can secure the full support of the of. sorties in immunise way and so that stalemate may continue for quite a while and should germany become more actively involved in the situation. i think we have become quite active in well who among the leading nations recognizing president gado as legitimate sink even our best or has been dismissed from venice a law for his involvement in this situation which we strongly protest i think what we should be urging more for maybe is really see the sanctions on the majority regime up on the people of venezuela but on the individuals of the regime in terms of results a student visa for the family members to european countries in terms of freezing illegitimate illicit eventually to assets that they have transferred to european countries and otherwise and to increase the pressure to make everyone work towards

a peaceful transition and refrain from violence at gemas foreign minister hamas psalms and has been in colombia has been meeting with venezuelan opposition leaders what is he hoping to achieve. i think we have been strongly supportive of all the countries in the region in the lima group working together for a peaceful transition in the country we should never forget that there's a refugee crisis was more than ten percent more than three million people from minutes that i would have left the country into or neighboring countries of the region which is a significant risk of the stabilizing. the region as a whole is a we strongly support our partners in colombia ecuador peru and other countries who in involved in that i was in the region myself in february together was a federal president and we support in terms of giving refuge to the people fleeing even a sailor in terms of securing a humanitarian support for those remaining in

a circular and in working towards a peaceful transition and i think once it's gets go we can be even more helpful in terms of supervising and monitoring as you facilities an election process that should be fair and legitimate and profuse and you government for an answer and does all of our assistance with visas and humanitarian aid all depend on nicolas maduro not being in power. no we have a footman humanitarian support in a significant form i think that was refused by the marine was partly hilarious. arguments so many here and it is not depending on that but we want to work towards a democratic transition in venezuela for the benefit of the people who are suffering from of the military and a disaster. of utmost importance ok so it's a given what you've said there let me go back to the question i just asked you

a meeting with the venezuelan opposition leaders what does high tomas hope to achieve you've you've offered all this of this aid and. previously now he's meeting the people who are trying to depose madore what does he want to gain by that. i think first of all i think we also want to refrain from violence i think we want to support opposition leaders in maintaining a unity of the of the opposition i think we have seen the release of philip polo pose these days and keeping keeping the front united that wants to work towards a democratic transition in venezuela in preparing for the for the for the day when these people will be able to to execute their responsibility for their country i thank you very much for joining us and rest and neck of the german thank you. destructive effects of cycling cannot becoming clear week after told through mozambique the government has put the death toll at forty expected to rise many

parts of the country are inaccessible remote areas and small islands are still waiting for a particularly hard hit was the island of the north of the country the correspondent i've increased traffic and sent us this report. we are onboard an aid flight headed towards the vacation island of ebo now for the first time we get an aerial view of the massive destruction up till now flights have hardly been possible due to the strong rain. i've never seen anything like this there's entire villages that are completely destroyed not a single house standing and if you look at the trees most of them fell down just like toothpicks. now we're about to land on the island of ebooks the first aid packages have arrived but this is by far not enough to help out the six thousand people living here. the island has been almost completely destroyed nearly all the

houses have been torn down including that of. what they see is them trying to bring order to the chaos. warming our beds our clothes we have lost everything we are doing our best to put things in order again at least the sun is shining at least dry the few clues that we have managed to salvage. it has been raining nonstop for nearly the entire week since the cyclon hit shows us her house what is left of it this is where she and her children lived. at the end you are god but they don't feel the wind was so incredibly strong that it ripped away nearly everything we lost everything now we don't have anything you know you might be up as. i don't know if we will receive any kind of aid but nothing is left

i don't have a job or field was destroyed i am a single mother i have to take care of my children and i have to take care of my parents my mother is sick we have to do our best to make ends meet. if we nearly everyone who lives here has found their way of life ripped away from them most of them are fishermen but many boats were washed away with the storm those that remained have to be repaired the mangroves were destroyed as well and the fish disappeared and have not returned since the second hit. the fewer tells on the island we're all so hard hit it might be a while before that your wrists return. most parts of the war are completely destroyed it looks as a bulldozer drove over this little city here a lot of people have no place to stay anymore so they had to build little shacks

like this one but many of told me they don't know how life will continue because they don't have the money to build new houses. and her children can't spend the nights in their own house anymore because the danger of it collapsing on them is too great. so they have to take their only remaining bread and all eight of them sleeping under an improvised roof their food is slowly running out they still have some fruit and vegetables but is only enough for one meal a day but she tries to stay optimistic nonetheless she wants her children to know that one way or another she will make things work. to some of the stories making news around the world italy's interior minister matter of the congress prime minister viktor orban a big touring hungary's border fence with serbia it's three meters high made of while i was erected in twenty fifteen to keep out migrants trying to reach western europe is to salvini told reporters that europe has to do more to protect its land

and sea borders. police in spain of arrested eleven people as part of an investigation into a people smuggling ring they say border officials in algeria and morocco worked with bangladesh based traffickers to smuggle hundreds of people from asia across the mediterranean migrants who want to be paid up to twenty thousand euros each. and you know authorities are moving hundreds of thousands of people to safety as a major storm approaches the country's east coast so i can fanny is carried to eventual right winds of up to two hundred kilometers an hour is expected to make landfall on friday seaside resort of forty. wiki leaks founder julian assange has appeared in court in london for the first hearing for you. actually dishman quest washington wants him to face trial for mcclatchy trying to hack a pentagon computer a songes fighting request in a separate court appearance on wednesday he received a fifty week jail term skipping bail in two thousand and twelve. now israel has

been marking its annual holocaust remembrance day to ensure the world never forgets the atrocities committed against jewish people during the second world war quarter of the six million jews murdered perished in the nazi death camps at auschwitz birkenau in poland on thursday holocaust survivors led the annual three kilometer march of the living from auschwitz to better known to commemorate the victims. and that commemoration comes amid the largest spike in anti semitic violence for decades experts say part of the reason is that members of the holocaust and are fading so a new project has come up with an effective way to keep those memories alive and co nasmyth and tell us we welcome i mean how do you keep passing these memories on from generation to generation and it's not easy to keep those alive and so the idea

here is use something like instagram to tell the stories of the holocaust to a younger generation and you can really think of this like and frank's diary of that classic book but instead of a diary what if and frank had a smartphone take a look. this film depicting the german army entering hungary during world war two might look like a hollywood film production but it's not in fact it was shot on a smartphone and portrayed format for an instagram audience it tells the true story of thirteen year old eva hyman in one nine hundred forty four she kept a daily journal for three months before the nazis deported to auschwitz even a story is told in the first person as if she had a smartphone during the holocaust and could have regularly documented it on instagram is israeli tech entrepreneur marty call javi personally financed the project and together with his daughter directed it with the help of social media

they're trying to establish a new way to remember the horrors of the holocaust museums and book sucks for me and we bring that in a meaningful way into the social media and allow children and young people to learn about it and young uses are already starting to discuss even a story online many have suggested the effect heavy instagram portrayal is too superficial for a story of such suffering others appeared to be embarrassed we break yeah yeah but the media. has traditionally been in the past so i would say that was a little bit taken aback thousands are now learning about the fate of nun she gave her diary to a neighbor shortly before she was deported to auschwitz it survived she did not she was murdered in october of nineteen forty four. but coalesce with this project is quite interesting but yeah i mean it's a powerful story and even what went into this production is really interesting as

well i mean this is not your typical kind of low budget instagram production as you can see the director who we saw there in the piece he spent millions of his own dollars with on the cast and crew of four hundred people he got to get the military costumes tanks trucks these are all authentic things from world war two to really bring this story to life he also developed a special camera and you can see a lot of the shots here are shot in kind of selfie style so he made a special camera so that the main character could film herself as if she had a phone in her hand so far it looks like those millions of dollars are pretty well spent in just a few weeks this account now has more than eight hundred thousand followers and what sort of reception has been going well as you saw a lot of people are really reacting positively to this story they say it's an innovative way it's an immersive way of understanding and bringing these stories of holocaust victims across to the younger generation there is though some pushback and some criticism inside of israel itself they say look you know this kind of

selfie culture it may not be appropriate i mean in some of the videos you can see here they use things like a tag a location tag that just simply says ghetto or the hashtag there said life during war and you know one might argue that things like that might be insensitive given how serious of a topic the holocaust is there is they'll fill one very high profile supporter of this project that would be prime minister benjamin netanyahu and self here's what he had to say about the project who is in the loop. now i want to encourage you each and every one of you to also make a story about people who were murdered in the holocaust so that the world will understand and that we will remember what we've lost and what we've gained back with the establishment of the stakes in israel because. they do. of course to keep those memories alive and to continue to commemorate what happened during the holocaust the difficult thing is many of those survivors are not many of them left

generation is starting to pass on how do you keep those memories alive how do you get the younger generation involved in this is one in a way that innovative way of doing it i think a lot of young people are very receptive to it and in particular the projects meant to grab attention as well i think as you can tell it's done that eight hundred thousand followers that is a lot for such a new account congressman thank you german chancellor angela merkel is on a three day tour of west africa which will include a visit to german troops in mali a wednesday she promised millions of euros in germany eight to fight terrorism and support economic development in the g five countries of mauritania mali chad and back you know foster economy is the region are suffering due to poor security and conflict and poverty a driving migration to europe. the german chancellor has come to this to show solidarity in a region where countries like book enough. have to spend more than a fifth of their budgets on security germany has some eight hundred fifty

soldiers stationed in mali as part of the un force machall pledged support to continue to build up the g. five own capabilities to tackle terrorism. at their joint meeting in what they do go to five leaders called on the chancellor and europe to help solve the political conflicts behind the violence. so that they sort of learned we talked about the situation in libya questions concerning old theory. and also first and foremost the impact of the crisis in libya on security in the extended region. we were all of the opinion that it is important that europe's leaders and institutions make a plea in favor of the chief five so hell for all of these issues since these are of course questions that concern us because short piece on the sort of reports. the

fact that germany didn't agree with the two thousand and eleven bombing of libya that ousted moammar gadhafi gives it great credibility here macko accepts europe's joint responsibility. it's the responsibility that also affects europe because if chaos gets the upper hand here which we would like to prevent that would also make itself felt in other areas also germany's message here is that while it won't deliver weapons it will keep up its support for the d. five in this sorrow region where the former colonial power france continues to do most of europe's heavy lifting in fighting terrorists. german chancellor angela merkel wants to reassure the region countries the g five that they are not alone in the fight against terrorism she's brought some fifty million euros in first funds for book enough aso and he said alone at the same time germany still stops sort of

from missing anything beyond military advice and the eight hundred fifty soldiers currently stationed in mali as part of the east stabilization force for now france will remain the big player here in the region. now to syria where over the past seven years kurdish fighters have succeeded in topping out an autonomous region in the north of the country but with the united states fighting its troops out of syria the region is now under threat from the acid regime and from turkey which regards the kurds as a terrorist threat to w.'s florrie annoyed officer to the town of near the turkish border to see how a group of kurdish women are preparing for potential attacks. these women are not fairweather warriors braving the rain they have come to practice their marksmanship . at their house wives mothers and grandmothers but they're also part of the p.c. gen an all female militia and sprung up all of

a coach controlled more than syria. this group from the town of derek is led by sharon farmer a veteran of the struggle for kurdish rights in. the h.b.c. jen was formed as an internal security force but back at base sharon says the women will also send up to any outside threat. i'm not saying we are not afraid of our enemies and we are always well prepared for then. our enemies threaten as daily we will fight and sacrifice for this land. because expel the regime from northern syria when the civil war broke out in twenty eleven they have since been autonomous. but the regime has a lingering presence. if they will hold on to some neighborhoods in the town of commissioning the capture of the kurdish region and now that it is winning the war

. goes once for control of the country. turkey visible from the rooftops of the border town commission is also hostile to kurdish tell freeman syria. in the kurdish region it's not unusual for women to pick up a gun. thousands joined the fight against islamic state and many did not return home. they lie buried in cemeteries like this one coming. the kurds who control northern syria an offshoot of the p.k. a guerrilla group that waged a bloody insurgency in turkey that's been designated a terrorist organization by nato. its lead up to the action on has been sitting in a turkish jail since one thousand nine hundred nine from a cell he now preaches ideals such as full equality for women it's an idea that the syrian kurds have been putting into practice so you know it's a core president of the autonomous government based in coming here government positions a coach at by

a woman the whole mission. or what we consider this revolution to be the revolution of women. we're trying to change the mentality within our society by implementing gender equality you know what have you as you know as long as one is would act creating a new society based on democratic governance. and everybody has said that. cherie imposed enough for a son and daughter. she says that that's not inspired her to join the culture resistance in syria when she was still a teenager. who. could have. hocussed if he spoke she landed a lot for him. before he came we almost forgot that we are kurds because of the oppression and the denial of the kurdish identity by our enemies on platform warm enough. on sharon's phone memories of a fight for kurdish rights it's been

a long struggle and she's determined to defend the hard won gains. and out of football the first leg of the europa league seven finals kicks off in a few hours with frank first hosting english premier league side chelsea frankfurt are the only german teams still in a european competition and in this one they become the fairytale member of the final for their opponents the chelsea are unbeaten in the tournament but their coach is aware the site needs to be careful on the borders league as home turf the area of any danger of a very dynamic team. we did great intensity. physically with the same characteristics of it but. the quality is the first and spatially in their face players meanwhile the champions they torments also down to it semifinals and barcelona have beaten liverpool three nil in the first leg luis suarez opened the scoring in the twenty sixth minute for the spanish

hosts and the match remained tight until the last fifteen minutes when little massey scored twice the second leg is in liverpool on tuesday. it is a reminder the top stories of this as well as a president nicolas maduro caused the army to fight off a coup plotters following this week's uprising a clear up continues but opposition leader trying to quiet up support for a series of strikes. on the death toll in mozambique following the cyclonic compass not reached forty one we got the powerful storm hit some parts of the country are still inaccessible and waiting for. this is d.w. coming up next in doing w. news asia indonesia's mega city two cotton it's crowded polluted on sinking rapidly this is why the president says it is time soon enough thanks to
