d.w. . this is g.w. newsline from the berlin a fresh blow for the chinese tech powerhouse huawei google announces it's following the company's blocking access to some of its services in line with u.s. government restrictions but could this decision end up hurting consumers instead. austria's political crisis deepens as ministers from the far right freedom party quit their government posts that's after chancers a bastion courts sacked his interior minister in the wake of a corruption scandal. and it's the document at the core of germany's democracy the

basic law is 70 years old we examine what it means for the country today. i'm called assman to our viewers on p.b.s. in the united states and all around the world welcome google has barred the world's 2nd largest smartphone maker while way from using many of its products it's a big blow to the chinese company last week the trumpet ministration limited the amount of business american companies can do with the chinese tech giant google's decision means that while way now loses access to some updates to the android operating system and to popular google apps such as g. mail and you tube. there is dismay in europe at the news that many google services will no longer be available on who are where smartphones in rome businessmen argue

oprah philly has lost faith in the chinese manufacture. you know that these you know i was very much get angry at huawei who sold me something that google doesn't recognize anymore i will send it back via registered mail. within. the u.s. government has added the chinese company to a trade blacklist which munich resident ali finds hard to accept any of us who wouldn't know this sort of thing is unacceptable it's again the customer that has to suffer because of some argument the americans have with chinese companies i think it's totally unjustified and it's just back in beijing chinese foreign ministry spokesman lou kang said the chinese government would defend chinese interests in the face of the decision. china will confirm this and will look into it and pay attention to it at the same time china supports chinese companies to use legal weapons to defend their legitimate rights to launch and. washington is also

blocking u.s. technology firms from providing microchips to while away but the company says it has many supplies in stock. the u.s. government considers who out with a national security threat it has already been to our way parts in the build out of america's 5 g. internet data network and is stepping up pressure on several european allies to do the same. to raise a longer joins me now she's the senior editor of vice media here in berlin now to raise a how much of a setback is this for wall way i mean this is what the 2nd largest smartphone maker in the world yeah and they have a lot of customers within europe and europeans like to use their google and their google maps and then. so in the long run of course it will make phones much more insecure for users and while people will keep using smartphones they will probably not buy new ones if you have

a wall by smartphone what would you tell someone what should they do well keep using it and update whatever an update is available because the updates might get through this security up this might get through a little delayed because there is. a system that is called the open software system which means that you can still rely on open source software updates to come through but it doesn't really mean that you can use them as they come through so it's probably in the long run a security risk ok but don't throw it in the trash yet i guess not now is it just google that's taking this action or are other companies starting to block away yes some other companies have reportedly also called quits with their way including qualcomm and some chip manufacturer so it is also the hardware manufacturers that are calling calling out the way. the u.s. and china are there in the middle of this trade dispute the not agreeing on

a lot of different issues what are the larger implications as well the larger implications are that way it can. enter markets and cannot deliver to markets that it wants to enter where as the u.s. government and kin is accusing quote way of installing back doors in the software and the reality of it is these accusations have been in the room for quite a while but if there is proof for that is not been made publicly if china decides to retaliate what kind of position are they in if they want to take aim at say apple well they have their own they have their own operating system that they're currently validating so what they have been actually always does the getting their own exactly so there they have been preparing for a situation like that but nobody really knows how how competent will it is and of course one way would love to just use the existing economics and the existing

environments of current software programs that are already in place ok this could be affecting smartphone users we'll see what happens there too as a blogger from vice magazine thank you so much thank you. now let's take a look at some of the other stories making news around the world just after former comedian of a lot of years and then he was sworn in as president of ukraine he's announced he will dissolve parliament and hold new elections in 2 months he says his 1st challenge is to end the conflict with russia in eastern ukraine neighbors paris's eiffel tower was closed to visitors for hours as someone tried to scale the famous landmark the towers media office said the unidentified individual climbed the outside of the tower you seem to have made it to just below the top viewing platform rescuers are now reported to have persuaded the man to come down. former south african president jacob zuma is back in court where his boyer's at argue he can't expect a fair trial on corruption charges zuma was forced to resign last year amid charges

of fraud and racketeering relating to an arms deal worth more than $2000000000.00 in the late 1990 s. . with just days to go before european elections austria is in the midst of a political crisis the country's junior coalition partner of the far right freedom party has announced that all of its remaining ministers will step down from their government posts this comes as chancellor of the boss john cortes proposed that the country's president fire the far right interior minister as a consequence of allegations bribery levelled against the vice chancellor christian . bible d.w. correspondent barbara vessel joins us now from vienna barbara but with all these these far right ministers resigning nearly the entire cabinet has fallen apart now what does this mean exactly for the austrian government. it means that the austrian government will now really having to hold him on the edge of the table really that

they were going to have a hard time to sort of keep an office because they can of course sort of look for a caretaker ministers however it is not quite clear whether that will go through in parliament because a motion of no confidence is has now tabled on wednesday and it will already be in palm and next monday so this whole affair that started out you know is a sillies affair about the freedom party the eff here in austria is now beginning to sort of engulf chancellor of course the prime minister himself dangerous time for him who had started out in office was such high hopes let's talk about chancellor of course i mean he has to renew his whole government in snap elections that have been announced for september how difficult of a task will it be for him to actually retain his own post.

it's not quite clear how this is going to play out will the voters and the press indication are going to be european elections next sunday because we don't know how much the voters are going to punish the freedom party their core voters certainly will stick to them with those that said if the change came from the conservatives they might really punish them they might give courts a boost are they might over all sort of punish everybody who has been in this government that will yet to be shown the polls there is a here in austria don't even dare approach gnosis they say everything is really up for play now and we don't really know what will happen it's open and courts is in a really very endangered position now he has it's taking him street days to come up to just to kick allow to just sort of end the coalition was the freedom party is something that he basically could have and should have done last friday so we will

see what he can do what his next step is going to be very briefly barbara do we know who will investigate all these allegations of corruption that came from this secretly filmed video. you know nobody knows and everybody is getting guessing and form a spin doctor of social democrats who started some rather nasty interventions during the election campaign 2017 had 1st been understood as a suspicion that a guy called tall silverstein he denies it vigorously so nobody knows those rumors are swirling and a lot of fun will be had was chasing the people who thought the put the trap that the freedom party went into so drunkenly barbara faisal in vienna thank you very much. you're watching the news still to come job as the 1st black woman director in the running to win the pond or at least one film festival we take a look at her entry in

a ghost story set in senegal. now iran is appealing to the united nations to help ease tensions in the persian gulf region that's after a weekend of taunts when donald trump threatened in a tweet to quote end iran tehran has since responded with a warning of its own but says it's not looking for war relations between the 2 countries have worsened over the past year after washington hold out of the 2015 deal aimed at curbing iran's nuclear program. iran's foreign minister mohammad javad zarif didn't mince words in his response to trump's threats donald trump hopes to achieve what i'll xander the great genghis khan and other aggressors failed to do iranians have stood tall for millennia while the aggressors are all gone economic terrorism and genocidal taunts won't end iran never threaten a newer anian try respect it works. it was all in response to trump's

earlier tweet vowing to quote end iran if tehran wages war against the u.s. but on the streets of the iranian capital not everyone felt war was looming maybe sit on a wall went have could start one he would have done it by now so if he threatens i'm coming for you then come because if you say something you have to act on it let's see how much of a man you are. naturally trump does not and did not want war but apparently some countries in the region of pushing him in that direction. have it both where i'm seeing all the military equipment the us have brought to the persian gulf i think they want to get results so results could either be war or iran sitting down for negotiations or solution avoid them over the. in recent days the trump administration has deployed bombers and an aircraft carrier to the persian gulf citing iranian threats to u.s. interests. on monday tehran upped the ante and announced it would

cripple its production of enriched uranium if they do it means iran would soon go beyond the stockpile limitations established by the 2015 nuclear record album free is here from washington and she can tell us more on that helena welcome u.s. warships are on their way to the region so this is clearly much more than just exchange of angry tweets right. right call that is certainly the concern at least it's not the 1st time that the u.s. president has waged a war of words but i think it's fair to say that there is concern in the international community that this tactic could one day go too far and that was the warning from the british foreign secretary jeremy hunt speaking in geneva saying let us not see these 2 countries accidentally trip into a warfare now iran is also bringing its own provocation earlier today it announced that it has upped its enrichment of uranium it's quadrupled that although it

remains within the parameters of the 2015 new deal so what we are seeing overall right now call is trump's particular brand of foreign policy flattery and then battery battery with that harsh rhetoric on those tweets but then yesterday remember as well we saw the president appear on fox news saying i don't want to go to war with iran was hurt economies before swiftly adding it also leads to loss of life so confused rhetoric there leading many people to question whether the u.s. president is sure of his position on iran or whether he's being influenced heavily by those in his circle here in washington d.c. now speaking of of influence a few years ago his security advisor john bolton wrote an op ed in the new york times it was entitled to stop iran's bomb bomb iran how much influence does john

bolton have in the white house. there are certainly reports and talk here in washington d.c. about the fact that john bolton may be a man who is looking for a war on several fronts whether that is with regards to intervention with venezuela north korea and now also with iran and there's also quite some debate as to the movement of those u.s. military ships and b. $52.00 bombers into the gulf whether that is something that really is readying for warfare or whether it's more readying for psychological warfare an effort to bring iran back to the negotiating table on the 2015 nuclear deal of course remember up until now washington has used economic sanctions in a bid to get iran to return to the table and that is certainly something these accusations of john bolton being the man pulling the strings that has been echoed by the iranian foreign minister himself who tweeted yesterday saying that trump is

being influenced by john bolton as well as the israeli prime minister binyamin netanyahu and the saudi crown prince mohammed bin. these people as a trinity who comprise the teen be in foreign affairs our very own helen humphrey in washington thank you very much. germany's constitution or basic laws it's called marks it's 70th anniversary this week it came into effect in may 949 after being written under the supervision of the victorious allied powers its aim was to ensure that after years of nazi dictatorship and the destruction of war the new federal republic of germany was built on solid democratic foundations 40 years later when west and east were united the constitution was adopted in the new unified germany. article one of the constitution states that human dignity is in biol but how realistic is that for everyone in today's germany as part of our series it's my

right our next story looks at what dignity means to a german was homeless for 10 years. also. 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 it. dominates 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 terminate quiz 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. 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 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 cool among us who sits down somewhere at lunch time 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.

is working to offer homeless people some dignity he's collecting donations to pay for a shower. 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 dirt 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 but. people have dignity and that's inviolate. and that should apply to everyone washing is a large part of the. cutter's preparations for the 2020 football world cup are in full swing but the decision to award the tournament to the gulf state is mired in were new to controversy not least because of the treatment of workers employed to build the stadiums and infrastructure more than a 1000 deaths of construction workers have been reported so far our next report offers a rare look inside the world of the micro laborers often toiling in harsh conditions . and once the poor poor old iron country qatar is now a playground of the super rich the discovery of the world's biggest natural gas

a week medical treatment is supposed to be free as our meals and internet housing is cramped and simple but it looks clean. is this enough. we're allowed to ask one worker questions his boss interprets. how much money per hour do you get here. the pay is very good. it's no problem. no problem but how much is it the workers are paid by the month. how much per month how much is it. should i really say how much i. should i really think. it's $380.00 euros. but human rights watch says wages are often much

lower and that migrant construction workers make the paint late or not at all unions are banned in cantars and there's often no legal recourse unfortunately the situation for migrant workers is still quite harsh. workers are still suffer from exploitation from. you know are vulnerable to forced labor even though we've heard many many problems. when asked the head of the organizing committee admits there are problems. if laws have been implemented companies are are applying it but not all companies of course that everybody's been there will come situations that are not you know where people are therefore rights are not being provided if carter is is serious about protecting the rights of foreign workers as it claims to be there's still a lot to be done in the lead up to the 2022 feet the world cup and beyond. finally after more than 70 years the khan film festivals are experiencing
