this is due to the videos coming to you live from berlin last year he was a comedian and now he's the president of your screen 41 years old the world to me as an entity has promised to be a new type of media but brought on his plans and how did he meet the many challenges you facing we'll speak to our correspondent in kiev also coming up. chinese smartphone maker is still the fresh locally united states as a tech giant google say it's cutting ties with the company to consumers be the ones

to lose the most. class an anniversary in germany the document at the core of the country the country's democracy the busiek york was in that did the 17 years ago to examine what it means for germany today to. kind of welcome i've of the touchy we begin in ukraine where of all jimmy's alinsky has been sworn in as president it is inaugural speech announced that he would immediately dissolve parliament and called early elections. the former actor and comedian takes over after defeating threats reporter shanklin alliance to victory last month but he does not come on a majority in parliament. but it obviously economy joins me now from the ukrainian capital kiev nick quite

a bombshell in the president's inauguration speech is dissolving parliament what else is he said why is it taking this step. get off the number it's a well you can definitely tell that he is an experienced showman he knows how to keep an audience on the edge of their seats this inauguration ceremony started very conventional with the pomp and ceremony of state yant them being sung the great seal of the nation being handed over to him so far so traditional words about national unity and then within a few minutes of the end of the whole event he told all the ukraine's politicians who were sitting in front of him that he would indeed be dissolving parliament not only that but he was giving them the 2 months before those elections are expected to happen to pass a law to strip themselves of immunity from prosecution not only that he fired several of ukraine's top officials the head of security services they too sitting just a few meters away from him lots of bemused expressions there the camera zooming in

on the people who had just lost their jobs live on t.v. so that definitely was a pretty dramatic climax this event he didn't give a reason in the speech for why he used his open palm up but it is clear he will need a majority policy card has no political force no policy behind him he's going to set one up to be able to translate on his very ambitious agenda so while he's still riding high in the polls he obviously wants to bring home that advantage and get that majority in parliament to allow him to really translate on that 73 percent presidential when almost 3 quarters of ukrainians giving him their votes and expectations riding exceedingly high here that's right and of course that i was given a face many challenges as president you covered his campaign before to continue let's 1st take a look at your reports on his election victory. was. it was a result that even simmons himself seemingly couldn't quite believe 73 percent almost 3 quarters of ukrainian voters had put their trust in him as the political

the man who would only announce his intention to run in just a few months before a face familiar to almost all ukrainians from television but someone who had never been involved in politics let alone run for office. for incumbent petro poroshenko it was a stinging defeat losing to zelinsky in all but one ukraine's regions his pitch to the nation as commander in chief as the man who had kept ukraine in its army together in the face of russian aggression had fallen on deaf ears simply in the weeks since his sensational victory selenski is kept out of the limelight making a handful of appearances most of them on social media as ukraine's parliament squabbled over the timing of the inauguration but what is it the ukrainians are really expecting any new president to do. i don't really know what to expect but i'm hoping for the best i've had enough of the old faces and politics you. heard me to face corruption in our country is that's the main thing. exactly measures at

least the puts a landscape let's see what to expect from him as president. in his fictional inauguration as president in this series 70 people zelinsky charms his audience by throwing stuffy protocol overboard and refusing to speak or behave like a politician. whether the real presence alinsky will manage to pull off the same feat only time will tell but one thing is already clear he's captured the country's imagination and he won't be the last showbusiness star weighing in on ukraine's politics as the country's most famous rock musician says he too plans to launch a new party. so they get this on your report zelinsky is a comedian who played the president how well is he doing so far a big the real thing. it's very early days but i think he is astounding some critics and naysayers who were rather skeptical

about how will he do at the back door the kind of behind the scenes politics he definitely seems to have pulled the right strings in terms of getting these these pushing for these new elections so fast coming out all guns blazing not giving his opponents time really to react making this announcement live on t.v. in front of the ukrainian nation all those foreign guests watching that inauguration that definitely seems like quite a canny move beyond that i think the big dilemma for him will really be trying to stay true to that promise he made an election campaign one of his slogans was become president but stay an ordinary guy his pitch was that he wasn't like the russian politicians he wouldn't be selling voters interests away behind closed doors but he will have to deal with his bicycle ponens people who've been around the block and trying to engage with them while not disappointing his audience his voters will be the real test of his presidency and of course all the big challenges

will be how to deal with russia what are their lives plans on how to approach relations with its big neighbor. well in this speech he didn't make any direct reference russia but what he did put at the center of his speech was bringing back. and ukraine under the control of the ukrainian government bring those people together with the rest of ukraine's population and that obviously necessarily means dealing with russia because it's russia that supporting those separatists in eastern ukraine i think there's very little chance for now at least of him getting on a plane and trying to kind of pull off some kind of bilateral diplomacy looking into putin's eyes and trying to find some kind of understanding that after 5 years rather of conflict in the east of ukraine of crimea that really won't go down very well with ukraine's public we saw that in the elections there was a candidate who flew to moscow before the 1st round elections he came in 4th place so it's really pretty narrow path that awaits selenski he can't really afford to go

off that path too far i think he'll look to ring reengage with a kind of multilateral formats bringing in the europeans the americans to basically hold his hand and to prevent the russians from putting on too much pressure but for now that so very difficult to see how that's going to play out and many analysts here don't see much progress happening in a hurry. thank you very much for that assessment. now we just is to go before european elections the austrian chancellor struggling to restore stability to his government since the funding scandal embroiled his junior coalition partner the far right freedom body speaking just a short while ago sébastien court said his conservative party was unanimous that the allegations of bribery leveled against his vice chancellor heinz. would be thoroughly investigated but of course stop short of firing his foreign interior minister as had been expected it emerged off the austrian vice chancellor schroeder

last week allegedly offering a government contracts for campaign funding and he has since handed in his resignation. it was this video released by a german news outlets to speak of that as you touch it's a tone that brought austria's governing coalition to its knees in an elaborate sting operation plus chancellor hides because of austria's far right party a.f.p. is heard and seen offering government contracts to a fake grass and backer in return for campaign help while the video was filmed in 2017 it didn't become public until last friday. resigned in disgrace and chancellors a bastion court's responded by calling for early elections but courts question whether the interior minister had that key could also from the far right party should stay on in the meantime. would be in charge of investigating this scandal despite being the head of the far right party at the time of the sting the far

right party however said their ministers would collectively step back should their interior minister be sacked. and have me join our correspondent bob levy is that who is keeping track of that story in vienna mom of the allstream chalcis about some courts was under pressure to sack is interior minister and he's on the far right freedom body but he's refused to do this do we know what the strategy is. it seems the nation was waiting with bated breath and particularly the austrian and the international pressure and vienna but it seems that sebastian of course is still playing technique at tactical games it seems that he still doesn't want to take responsibility to sensitive freedom party from his government and from the coalition himself enough and he puts the responsibility for that onto the president and he says that he doesn't want to sort of take the decision away from him and speak for the president would to sort of come out here and say what he wants and

how he wants to proceed which of course is just an excuse so he's still playing games he's still sort of trying to keep things alive and trying to somehow keep contact to the freedom party freedom party it is a very different picture than what we have seen from sebastian chords in the past all those sort of like strong words very quickly and comes out with strong pronouncements not so in the scandal he somehow seems to still feel fear the fall out on here the far right freedom party also addressed journalists what did they have to say. oh they said that they had done fantastic work in government and that everybody should really thank them instead of sort of scampering as the coalition government and that the necessary steps had been taken collins shy head to head to step down and more or less things were over and

particularly not particularly the contentious interior minister who by the way among other problems that he caused sort of endangered security cooperation was neighboring countries like germany for instance because there is no trust in security services in watch he does kick ok mileage and said none of this is my fault i'm the best interior minister ever and i want to stay in office so they are fighting and they are checking in stead of being contrite and saying we have very sorry about this they say we are sorry but somehow they say it doesn't matter we can continue both of these and thank you very much showing us up to date on austrian politics in vienna. it's been having up to date with some of the stories making news around the blood voting in india's national election has ended and exit polls suggest india's find this in that in the movie will retain his majority more they focused heavily on national security during the campaign which helped to rally

his b.g.p. party's hindu nationalist base when 900000000 people were eligible to vote in the was not just democratic election. for the 1st time since the ousting of saddam is present a lot of bashir supporters of the country's extremist groups have turned out to call for the inclusion of sharia law under a new government and these this as talks between saddam's ruling generals and the opposition resume on the transition to civilian. and indonesian court has sentenced a french citizen to death by firing squad for smuggling 3 kilos of drugs indonesia has some of the was strictest drug laws but the harshness of the sentence still came as a shock prosecutors have asked for a 20 year jail of felix dolphin. the chinese tech company huawei has been dealt a fresh blow after google said it was cutting ties with the company the u.s.

internet giant says it's responding to a decision by the trump administration to categorize fall really as a national security threat the move means that in future owners of smart phones will have only limited access to google services and this comes as the u.s. and china engaged in an ongoing trade dispute which shows no sign of ending. forget g. mail google's chrome browser on the play store on your smartphone there is absolutely to disappear from future huawei handsets outside of china and that's not all huawei will also lose access to updates to google's android operating system google is taking direction from the u.s. . government which has added the chinese telecoms company to a trade blacklist triggering restrictions that will make it difficult for huawei to do business with american companies and it's not just google that has cut ties with while away the chinese company won't be able to buy u.s.

made chips for its devices any longer. right now huawei buys about $67000000000.00 worth of components each year including about $11000000000.00 from u.s. suppliers like intel qualcomm xilinx and broadcom according to the nikkei business report. tech experts have question to our ways ability to continue to function without cooperation from the united states the u.s. government considers the company a national security threat and has warned its allies not to involve the chinese in their 5 g. networks the white house claims beijing could use the technology to spy on the west huawei has repeatedly denied that allegation is says it's going to fight back against what it cost the strangling moves of the u.s. huawei now plans to use backup chips it's been developing for years and insists the impact will be limited. and to get both on the story and the context want to go

juice from either of these businesses joins the work of monica so how much of a setback is this for the chinese to come to a end users who are using their phones why would you buy a sure way a smart phone right now under the circumstances i think that in the in the short term certainly this is going to have a big impact on sure ways of business because consumers will think twice whether they should invest in a smart phone that very soon we might not have access to services to apps that we're used to that we take for granted like you tube or google maps of course both google and sure why they're both insisting that the already existing way smartphone users they still will be able to update apps and push through security fixes. google play servers and so forth but one school launches the new on droid version and that'll be later this year then that is not certain anymore so i think should think that in terms of sales smartphone sales this will have an impact and it'll certainly knock us ambition to overtake samsung to become the bestselling

smartphone brand in the 2020 so that will be sort of do you rail to that plan. even though your way has come out now in a statement and saying that it will continue to build safe and sustainable software ecosystem for users globally whether that helps or not in the short term i have my doubts in the long term though this could actually lead to the creation of an asian rival to android it's because your way certainly has signalled that it's prepared for the eventuality of being cut off from american know how earlier this year the company's consumer devices chief told german daily that we have prepared our own operating system that's our plan b. so we'll have to see how that plays out and how fast exactly meanwhile is just google that's broken off with a while we know there are several other names emerging now very quickly one of them of course germans any conductor manufacturer in finian which says that they

suspended shipments to your way technologies and that's just shows that washington's crack down on a sure way is now causing ripples beyond you as a borders there's also a growing backlash from western countries the possible risks of course when it comes to using as your way for 5 g. the next generation. technology for mobile networks which everybody is very keen on your way is the leader of 5 g. technology most advanced and very cheap but now it's questionable whether people will go for it or whether they look for alternatives there's also a european business lobby in europe so far has been quite sort of calm about it but they now say cases of european firms forced to transfer to. in china are increasing and that they think the regulatory environment in china is bleak so it's going to be difficult for where here and a lot of dimensions to this issue and also how to play into the trade dispute between china and the us monica jones from business desk

a pleasure to have you with us. that was introduced of the horrors of the 2nd world war and this week the german constitution known here as the basic law mocks its 70th anniversary the constitution came into effect in may 1949 after being put together under the supervision of the victorious allied powers its aim was to ensure that after years of nazi dictatorship and the destruction of the war the new germany was built on solid democratic foundations 40 years later when west and east germany were reunited the constitution was adopted in the new reified germany. but how relevant is a constitution in today's germany article one for example states human dignity is in viable as part of a series it's my right and next story takes a look at what dignity means to a german man who was homeless for 10 years. or

so of course after going to the toilet taking a shower there normal things for everyone but how can you do this when you're homeless it's not so simple. dominic clone lived on the streets for 10 years always on the move looking for something to eat somewhere to sleep he says it was a life without dignity. i don't ache was 16 when his mother threw him out the streets of st paoli became his home the red light district of hamburg. when we beat each other up for a sleeping bag it's a fight for survival and then there's a sadistic violence and contempt where people come in they don't treat you with

dignity but like dirt. they pee on your sleeping bag or batter us something there might not be a tomorrow maybe someone will set me on fire beat me to death you end up living just for the here and now and trying to stay alive. yet dominic's got his high school diploma and volunteered in a clothing to pay for refugees people even worse off than him he sees this kind of thing all the time please wake up a sleeping homeless man and tell him to move on. this is also a question of dignity who among us who sits down somewhere at lunchtime expects to be approached by 3 police officers and you see how they put on gloves because they're disgusted that's no way for people to treat each other. dominic is working to offer homeless people. he's collecting donations to pay for

a shower a bathroom on wales with a dressing room full of clean clothes he learned what hygiene can means were passed and when he was living on the streets. body and soul go hand in hand at some point if you're physically dirty you turn inwards and feel in the end that you yourself are dirty has a lot to do with dignity and feelings of self-worth these are things that are lost on the streets i hope this bus can help taking showers to people who need them. dominic got his life in order he's 30 now and for the 1st time his existence is fairly secure he has work he has goals. and he has friends most importantly he says. i have an apartment and i appreciate what that means for me it's a luxury to be able to sleep in my boxer shorts or to wash myself whenever i feel

like you know i need a shower. well it's not do. them bench outside of the people of dignity and that's inviolable and that should apply to everyone and washing is a large part of that. and to talk more about jimmy's constitution i have with me up a little correspondent who put video of a group photo as the sort of a touching report for this homeless person we saw the ability to have a shot was a matter of dignity but what did the authors of germany's basically all mean when they said human dignity is invaluable well 1st of course we have to see human dignity of the concept of dignity is of course a timeless thing we have to see when was this basic law the german guns because it's the german government because it's the constitution was actually written up that was perhaps and in 1989 just after world war 2 and was designed as an answer to the atrocities of neck nazi dictatorship and of course of the holocaust and the

constitution was designed to put as an answer to that to say this should never happen again and what makes this constitution and this article also so important is that it doesn't say all german people it speaks of every person and you but before we continue it lets us know what the president of the german bundestag voice gong show had to have to say about the german basically. mr president what's so special about germany's basic law that was put on the 1st of all what special about the basic law is the conditions under which it was created one must be clear germany had unconditionally surrendered after the catastrophe of hitler. total destruction of the 2nd world war it was a ruined country and so we still people to even have a sovereign state to create a framework that then became something no one could have even imagined back then that's the great thing about this basic law when i look at the basic law today

because i mean the most important thing is already contained you know article worn out human dignity is an inviolable all the other things derive to an extent from this principle. and through quid up through good because the president of parliament was gong show i better tell us now about the importance of the basic law and article one in today's context. well the german constitution sets the frame will work for everything and how the political system here in germany works everything is derived from that as well as control it that the president of the german parliament just said everything comes from article one everything has to be connected to the idea of human dignity and also there's this constitution is in some sort flexible that's what makes it so successful not every article in this constitution is as important at the same time as the other for instance let's look

at article 14 article 14 is the right to vote for private property something which has become quite self evident for most of the germans today. but also as if you look at the 2nd sentence of this article it says property entails obligations its use should also serve the public good something something which has become very current today as we are discussing renationalisation of real estate companies property prices and friends have been rocketing and in the in the recent past so this constitution is not only about basic rights it's also about flexibility and i did it but we devised you don't use that to correspondent thank you very much for telling us about jimmy's basically a constitution which times 70 you're welcome. here's a recap our top story that we're following for you called make up was emails and scarce been sworn in as

a new president of ukraine citizens given landslide victory in last month's election despite having no political experience he said his 1st task was to tackle the conflict with moscow in the east of the country. coming up next on live w google street cars and the globalization program to stay with us for that if you count.
