d.w. . this is day that when you fly from the international tension surges over the iran nuclear deal a new leaders rejects attack iran's ultimatum saying that dry creek concern about the deals future on the islamic republic contemplates harsh new sanctions as the u.s. be increases the pressure also on the program pope francis moves against sex abuse in the catholic church and future priests and nuns around the world will be obliged to inform the church if they suspect abuse is taking place look at the implications for perpetrators and victims. and

a second victory snatched from the jaws of defeat said the chappie attorney london team tottenham scored in the last gasp of injury time turning a loss in tone when i accept that soft and liverpool pulled off a simple stomach if. i'm phil gayle welcome to the program the european union is urging iran to stick by its commitments under the nuclear deal agreed with world powers in twenty fifteen and a joint declaration a u. leaders of a fight to save the deal follows a ratcheting up of tensions between the united states and iran first president hassan rouhani said he would begin to withdraw from key aspects of the nuclear deal unless major powers swiftly granted sanctions relief and president trump imposed new sanctions on the islamic republic targeting industrial metal exports e.u.

leaders made their statements in the remaining in city of c.p.u. why they've been meeting to agree and used to teach agenda for the block. the e.u. parliamentary election in two weeks' time is high on the summit agenda german chancellor angela merkel called on the block to show solidarity and remain strong on the international stage. regardless of our political differences all e.u. member states are convinced that joint action is the better approach to maintain peace and prosperity. and it's vital that we advocate our values in the wider world often wish them in a wholesome food of influence will be absolved of it the summit in sydney us about charting the future of the european union including a strategic agenda spanning the next five years issues include security migration climate protection and the common currency news of iran's partial revoking of the twenty fifty nuclear deal through the carefully planned agenda into disarray our

like that is there one hundred percent to preserve this important agreement that will contribute to preserve its in the future. in the afternoon a year leaders agreed on a statement of priorities for the bloc in the coming years. this is the substance abuse. this summit is being held without britain so why don't you or tell us what those priorities are. yes it was in need of breaks it's free summit here in romania that is what diplomats confirmed to me when i asked what the leaders did actually avoids that torture is topic that many have said has prevented them from looking towards the future and so that is what they did here today took them a mere minute to sign the so-called c.d.o. declaration a mix of aspirations and good ideas about solidarity about working together german

chancellor angela merkel arrived here and said we need to be innovative we need to be strong we need to stick together the world is not sleeping we need to move forward and that was also the french president's message now of course having said that all that i asking for solidarity it comes a reality check there's a lot of things where you have the mike ration crisis or for instance eurozone reform where all these things are lacking and let's look at a part of that reality check a e.u. leaders a hot harsh words for the summit hosts romania. that's right junk look younger the head of the european commission criticize that when it comes to the implementation of rule of law a rumania that is struggling with corruption in the country is still has a lot some some way to go and then of course there are other countries where the european union is particularly looking at for instance hungary about a particular poland where the rule of law is has been under attack and were

a number of infringement procedures are ongoing so these are issues that that europe really is struggling with they need to be resolved and particularly at a time when the european election is only two weeks away where a shift from the far right is expected your leaders have emphasized that it is important that they tackle these issues in order so that they're not being exploited by the far right so no brakes iran did manage to make it on to the yeah the agenda now on that issue given that the u.s. has abandoned the deal and the efforts to lessen the effect of american sanctions are having little effect how much pressure can the really bring and that's a real dilemma for the european union this move by terror on really exposes a lack off of a diplomatic wage that the european union has in this case they fit tried very hard ever since the us yes withdrew unilaterally from that steal to encourage

enterprises to keep doing business with iran about the threat of u.s. sanctions for any enterprise that works together with iran it's just so much stronger so they have created a mechanism for instance so that food can be sold and bought from from iran but that's about it's it's a long way to go and it is a real dilemma for the e.u. this iranian problem here. matheson's to be romania thank you. let's take a look at some of the other stories making news around the world and north korea has fired two suspected short range missiles into the same second weapons launch in a week north korean leader kim jong or defended the launch out of this week as a regular military exercise this comes after a failed summit in egypt between kim jong un and us president donald trump. that is when security forces have arrested the vice president of the country's

opposition controlled national assembly and seen here on the left his deputy to one who declared himself the country's president in january is the first opposition figure to be arrested since the attempt to spark a military uprising last week. is underway in south africa after the country's parliament reactions early results show the ruling african national congress in the lead the vote is the first barometer of public sense of it since the president said obama posed a replaced scandal hits jacob zuma last year. in turkey the ousted matter of istanbul says he will lead a revolution for democracy ahead of next month's rerun of the city's mayoral race. won the election in march but was removed when electional authorities an old the result after the ruling party which lost alleged voting for. the pope francis has issued a groundbreaking new law requiring all catholic priests and nuns to report clerical

sexual abuse and cover ups the papal decree covers abuse of children and adults and requires every catholic diocese in the world to set up simple accessible systems for reporting abuse and protecting whistleblowers and also allows for the suspected abuse to be reported directly to the vatican if necessary. religious affairs correspondent martin jacques can tell us more welcome martin what does this mean. mostly this is imposition of a top down of a top down policy for reporting this type of policy it's already in place in europe and it's already in place in north america but most as is around the world do not have such thing and in this sense is a very strong message mainly because it comes directly from the very top of the church so this no longer left to party or charges or archbishops etc but it's

really sort of you know. for the entire institution and will lift strong message have teeth will there be penalties for failing to report abuse you know the penalties have not been made clear as to what the penalties would beat but i think that the bigger issue concerning the t. thirty like they're off in terms of the policy is how much we'll and how much efficiency there is at the church at the level of national churches to implement it that goes to say that any of these things because we're talking about systems of gover up essentially that are confabulation that have a lot to do with informal relations it means that for this policy to have any force there would have to be things in place that actually can overcome them that goes to say that you know friendships and sort of political play into lease and things of that kind would have to be combated by church officials that are actually very much willing and not the forefront of the fight for its reports so your implication

seems to be that this this was a decision that was not wholeheartedly welcomed by the church i think that by and large the church is in the middle of a civil war a concern in how we said you know any of these issues or its issues in general are handled in the public light there is clearly enormous opposition to this i mean it's quite heavy than both of the level of the korea at the level of the church in rome but also sort of across the world because it is the church ultimately that has also been the vehicle or has also been the home to many of these are. you sent this cover up so those people many of them are still there and many of those people obviously continue to hold power so i think that in a sense what we are seeing if not a divided church we're certainly seeing a church which is a global institution grappling with itself and trying to figure out ways to get its house in or other so the pope says you have to turn over people who are suspected of abusing the people who are coming up abused does this mean the church will then

turn those people over to the police we do not know it is not the case right now i mean so so clearly said no it is not the case that the church is intending at this point to turn reports of abuse to national authorities it is however noticeable that we have had two major waves of reform perhaps not very visible to the general public but we have to remember that earlier in this year during the summit the pope turned to his church and said i could use directly the church the people in front of him you know participating covering but very often abetting you know child pornography and sexual abuse and so on the second step again with this kind of reform which is above is a reform for the church and in a way i mean the russian next step would actually be to force these kind of reports that now will go officially through the system of the church to go to national authorities if that were to happen and you know there are reasons to think that that could happen because there is also

a lot of pressure the news that we hear today will completely change its foreign money jack thank you so much for very welcome. despite the removal of long term a dictator omar al bashir the people of sudan still haven't won power for themselves protests are therefore likely to continue the mass movement that has led to change at the top past many faces the correspondence that not only couldn't the bow and i have been to meet a graffiti artist pay tribute to the people killed in the fight for liberation. spraypaint weapon of protest. based graffiti artist has returned to her home sudan to do have pawed with the uprising that broke out in december she's honoring anti-government protesters who've lost their lives by creating portraits of them in front of their homes. the art where there is a reminder to everyone that you know for you. we have to remember the martyrs

because. all comes down to they went out to protest for us. over the past months and a team of volunteers have memorialized over twenty martyrs as she refers to them. they did so at a great personal risk. because we painted in the middle of demonstrations with security forces everywhere what would we have done if something had happened when we were doing our last painting we got arrested. i. came from moving conversations with relatives of the victims a seal is back in. the neighborhood so some of the tombs most violent clashes. it's . father who was killed by a solicitor to complete the mural dedicated to his memory. come to that.

there was gunfire some of the demonstrators wanted to hide in the house my brother let them in some security officers wanted to get in but my father wouldn't open the door so they shot at the door my father got injured he died the next morning. says her family's thankful to the paying tribute to her father for his role in sudan's revolution. as a young woman she's inspired it is a female artist who took this initiative. in right from the beginning the idea of a woman coming here to paint was strange i had never seen anything like that and. seen men doing it but that a woman comes and does this it was near. a seal says she is just one of many women who have been a driving force in this uprising. she also wants to stand as a symbol for the freedom of artists in sudan and

a catalyst for conversations about change in the future i think art is is the most important thing in revolutions because it's only thing the visual thing that makes you feel like you're there you would appear not this art forces you to speak about what's happening you know today it's not just a specific person but it's what he died for in the cause that he died for. full full full the full of the military transitional council in favor of a civilian government that's the last demand is c.-l. and the community here have in their revolution. a sea of hopes that for future generations in a free sudan the last remnants of the country's repressive regime will be these nero's reminding everyone how that very system was overthrown. you're watching live from berlin still to come we'll go to moscow where president putin joined half a million people celebrating victory day which marks nazi germany surrender to the

soviet union seventy four years ago. first though a series of reports looking at what germans see as the big issues today kate brady travels into the countryside where a major concern especially amongst younger people is climate change. seem to be leading the way in the fight against global warming but it's now fallen back on his commitments people have been telling kate of the government is now faces a. to end my journey across germany i'm traveling back to the capitol. where the german government is feeling the heat of climate change. between its love of cars and nuclear power phase out and the country's long goodbye to cofield energy gemini's struggling to meet climate goals. in recent weeks that very issue has been quite literally knocking on the government's front door. inspired by the swedish climate activists to to back for the past four

months hundreds and thousands of german school kids have been skipping school every friday demanding action against climate change university student louise annoyed power has become the face of the fridays the future movement in germany which is now backed by more than twenty six thousand scientists. we need our government to act now and i don't see that right now we keep burning fossil fuels knowing that they are destroying. and. disturbing our climate to an extent that. we are struggling we will be struggling to stay alive in the long term and species are dying every day. once deemed a world champion in environmental protection it seems germany is at least now realizing that there's more to the fight against climate change the meticulously separating rubbish last year's heat wave alone brought home the harsh realities of climate change cargo ships brought to

a standstill dried crops forest fires and infrastructure. having missed is twenty twenty climate goals the german government is now looking ahead to twenty fifty with the aim of phasing out coal powered energy by twenty thirty eight but students likely want to see the end of that by twenty thirty at the latest. demonstrators have vowed to continue striking until they see more action from the government. given twenty years' time your children or your grandchildren or the children of the neighbors will ask you what did you do back then when will you know what was so could change things where you could make a difference what you do and i'm telling this the government here we would judge this government. harshly because we will look back on them and see that there were among the last ones who could actually change something and change the

path we are on. knowing the consequences of what's happening. joins me. to quickly what were the other concerns that people told you about where we could get for big issues with climate change there digitalisation germany's housing crisis the shortage of housing that's a nationwide problem as well at the moment demographic change in the sense of germany's aging population. and also the digitalisation so why are those issues important for the country's future but these are all issues that we're already starting to see the effects of right now which. you'll be able to see in the in the series of reports of done over the last few days but i certainly going to shape how germany grows by country on in its own capacity but also as part of the european union and as a world leader and these are role topics which i holding germany back at the moment

from reading you could say filling it it's real potential is specially when it comes to digitalisation for example is having a huge effect on business as so you've been there you've been out of the city a bit of from berlin and the countryside east and west so what what surprised you most in your travels i don't know whether it's so much a surprise as a confirmation that all four of these topics which i mentioned they're very closely intertwined which is why we really focused on these in on these issues when it comes to what is going to shape germany's future of course when you talk about for example the the aging population here in germany and people especially over in full in parts of former east germany there's not many young people but it's if particularly in these places and in rural areas where then you really feel the effects of germany's digitalisation shortcomings as you know next to no internet

connection or at least next to no high speed internet connection so then you know it's easy to understand why younger people don't want to move away from the cities into the countryside where there is so in desperate need of a younger generation of people to fill this skilled worker shortage at my house right now in germany you know your day job you're a political correspondent don't you valid visa long standing problems what do the politicians say about the failure to actually address them i mean they are sticking to the. two basically the coalition agreement right now i mean we're already this week if you take for example this issue of climate change again. been in the news here going this week in germany when it comes to proposals of introduced in a carbon tax that's a massive debate right now when it comes to tackling climate change there they are trying to address these issues we had a digitalisation pact agreed on earlier this year as well and at the end of last

year some measures implemented to make sure that those high speed internet in the next five years in germany but it's really a bit late exactly this is the point it's all seems a little is it too little too late right now because it isn't ready in case of germany trying to keep up with everyone else it's trying to catch up now ok betty thank you so much russia has been marking the seventy fifth anniversary of the soviet anniversary of the soviet victory over nazi germany and well the main victory day celebration that took place in moscow's red square president putin joined an estimated half a million people many of them carrying photos of loved ones who died or suffered in the war victory day marks nazi germany surrender in one thousand nine hundred and russia is celebrated today later elsewhere because the surrender documents were signed after midnight moscow time. to correspondent mina drugs attended the event

in red square. the official part of the victory day parade is over this is a very important day for most russians they come together and it's not important whether they're communists or liberals or conservatives we've seen a parade with a lot of weapons and we have seen tanks we have seen mobile short range ballistic missile systems and all this is sending a political message no one can hurt us we've heard this message also from president putin who spoke to the crowds it's also no pitching for russia to show off its newest military equipment after all only the u.s. is selling more arms than russia. champions league football now and another starting come from behind victory in the semifinals this time london's tottenham broke the hearts of amsterdam club i x. talking from at the w. sports welcome what happened i honestly do not know how to make sense of these past

two days it's almost like in football now expect the unexpected i actually looked like they were heading to the final dominated the first half score two goals and then all of a son in the second half new customer. two goals in four minutes and he just a game changer out and everything up until that point that the youth and inexperience that was an advantage for i.x. others on became a disadvantage and they started to look shaky and then new cars moved out of course and added time with a hack trick i can say for this was such an emotional night you had tears of joy tears of pain you have to hear and see the reaction of spirits spurs coach maurice you push a teenager to believe it. ascendancy here that this no pain no gain and i think this is an amazing thing because although there are four that we made in the last five years. used to they me you know in

english. it was all worth it yes you know so we have already seen two big surprises in european competition this week not so what i'm trying to frankfurt face chelsea in the europa league semifinals expecting another upset look what is stopping them i mean frankfurt will have to bust and i live back that have to bust and record it back and. the coach frankfurt's coach said before the match he made it really kiya that he will look to liverpool for inspiration now let's find out if that also means that if he thinks his team can also perform a miracle in europe because that would be the third one in a week if it does happen let's take a listen. you have electrician involved in this winter trying. well maybe it would be a miracle if frankfurt could get to the europa league final if we could make it. like you know i said that with the least experienced team to reach the semifinals. but

to achieve this miracle you have to play the perfect match jesus will go for the fulfilling it's a credible so how do you rate the chances because it's been all about the english sides and this season's european competitions i say throw away out all these odds because we've seen teams this week overturn three goal deficits and for frankfurt to go to london with a one one scoreline there and in a pretty good position but i do have to say that chelsea of course are the experienced side and they have something that frankfurt don't have and that is death and this made into the season we saw this against the evil coups in the last week frankfurt really starting to get tired and i think playing in two to three competition competitions really is taking you know its toll on the play as and but of course after what we saw these past two days it ain't over until it's over if of course frankfurt news and austin and chelsea make it then we'll have an all english i know it here as well as credit to the english dominance at the moment in europe.
