this is the w.'s lie from palin is it his deputy prime minister calls for a vote of no confidence in his own government and tell yourself it's this policy differences mean it makes no sense for his far right link party to continue in the coalition government he wants a new election also on the program. fridays for future movement and a week long form in the swiss city of los alamos and adopts a climate declaration calling for climate policy to be based on the best scientific research. from political tool solitary in villa russia's fathomed hooted
10:01 pm
marks 20 years in office so what is behind this whole. i'm phil welcome to the program or at least far right league party has announced that it will call for a vote of no confidence in its own government party leader must have salvaged he who is also one of the country's deputy prime minister has announced that political differences with populist coalition partners the 5 star movement could not be amended the prime minister who is a member of neither party has accused mr salvini of fabricating a potentially destabilizing crisis. this is not an election rally. but it looks like mathias salvini is already gearing up for a vote. i do my job with my heart with with pride if i can do it freely
10:02 pm
and until the end i mean if i realize that someone is trying to stop me then the decision must go back to the italian people with no ifs and buts. you decide you and no one else is not a paper. boy. any is leader of the far right league party currently in coalition with the anti establishment 5 star movement but after the 2 parties fail to agree on the financing of a multi-billion euro train line something called for fresh elections although he has no power to do so. italian prime ministers reset picante is not a member of either party but he did criticize. the it's not up to matters salvini to convene parliament it's not up to him to set the timeframe for a political crisis where now other institutional figures will have to step in. the
10:03 pm
rain to the authorities on the country it will be after him as a senator and leader of the league. explained to the nation and the justify in front of the voters who had believed in the promise of change. the reasons why he has decided to disrupt the work of government ahead of time. but the main thing let's go. but conti has agreed to convene poem and for a vote of confidence in the government with as herself in its coalition partners fellow deputy prime minister luigi the 5 star movement says they want to do the job of government then go to the electorate. we're not all are we going to end our time in government with some good work which can be done by senators and deputies voting to count their numbers and saving italians 500000000 euros then everyone can go to the polls. the coalition has only been in existence for 14 months in that time so
10:04 pm
finis lake party has doubled in popularity close watches of italian politics will be wondering if that has moved to do with the timing of his demands than any internal bickering was going on let's bring in d.w. journalist julia. wrote for mobile come to here it's being said that mattel salvini has manufactured this political crisis because he thinks he could win an election without these 5 star coalition partners a could. well he's popular already has been increasing over the last year and especially since the elections in march of 28 t. in recent polls put him at 37 percent that's a 20 percent increase compared to last year and it is quite astounding that has allowed him to have free reign within the government and the 5 star movement in the meantime has fallen back the same amount 20 percent to 30 days so it is looking
10:05 pm
likely that he might. actually if it were to take place so he calls for a vote of no confidence in his own government that what happens because it's hard to tell if this is a crisis or just how italy does politics. well sometimes actually there's politics does take place in the constant crisis situation but it does look likely that elections will happen a government reshuffle does not seem to be on the table on monday we will have a clearer idea of when the vote of no confidence might happen then depending on that results in a lease president of the republic will not likely call for elections that might happen between near to end of october and so this happens on monday as far as i'm a i'm aware the telling parliament is on recess is that right exactly so it talent parliamentarians has been called back to convene and have to vote on this vote of
10:06 pm
no confidence and said he has actually pointed out how. parliamentarians should start coming back to work because there are things that need to be done instead of lounging in their vacations so matter you selby let's presume then that this is about him wanting to become prime minister what does he want that he can't achieve within this coalition. there have been many problems with the with between the 2 coalition partners. starting from the beginning they've had to agree on a coalition contract to try to govern together one important point of the matter most of the news program was famous flat tax so trying to learn the tax. system so that taxes would be on the same level and reduce for everybody the firestar immigrant has never really been in favor of that so that is one of the mean program points that somebody wants to bring forward to joining us our valley
10:07 pm
in rome thank you. well take a look at some of the other stories making news around the world officials in eastern mid masada landslide caused by heavy monsoon rains has killed at least 13 people and injured dozens more floods have forced tens of thousands across the country to flee their homes emergency teams are hunting for survivors. cooling towers a former nuclear plant we have a rhythm riot in the west of germany has been demolished after being out of fumes for more than 30 years germany plans to abandon nuclear powered by 2022 because of safety concerns compounded by the fukushima disaster back in 2011. dozens of women wearing burkas and kneecaps have been protesting in the dutch capital the hague against a new law since the beginning of the wearing the face covering veils has been found in public buildings and public transport to the government but the dutch law does
10:08 pm
not by wearing a burqa on the street. and 450 student activists from the fridays for future movement are vended a 5 day summit in switzerland by unanimously adopting what they're calling the climate declaration of luzon the announcement comes as hundreds of thousands of young people skipped classes to join fridays for future protests in more than 120 countries the global movement was inspired by 16 year old environmental campaigners going to 200 in sweden. so let's get more. on that declaration from one of the movement's organizers here in the field labor welcome to day w so this declaration is was well basically what it is if it's a representation of our realize ation as a global movement of that this is a problem affecting everybody across the world and not just people within germany or within feet and and i think that that's a really big important step for us to take because there are a lot of countries right now where politics are not reflecting the ideals and the
10:09 pm
demands that we are putting forth the students one wonders why it takes you farai. 3 days or 5 days what was to come up with this when there's nothing it doesn't sound like there's anything in there that we didn't already know yeah i guess that's true but i think that there's a big difference between knowing it and saying it and i think that's part of our job especially as young people you may say you may know these facts already the science has not been is not been created in the last 2 years we know these things free for decades but the difference is that we as students are coming together internationally to say that this is something that we are scared about the something we are frightened for and this is something that we will continue to fight for as a group together so the main points of this declaration i want the main points are 1st and foremost holding the $1.00 global warming goal in our in our like and in our view. fizzes going to be very important to minimize the effects of climate change and we know if this is scientifically proven and another commitment that we
10:10 pm
want to make is that we as young people are going to use our voices in politics to continue to fight for climate justice which i think is also really important thing to just have written down and have stated collectively a cynic would look at this and say 450 have you have travelled to switzerland from all over europe to tell us what we already knew how does that benefit us i think it gives people courage i think that it gives people hope i think that it gives us an inside view into what other countries are doing i feel that after very important as well if you go from this what's what is the inside view that i believe. that the biggest thing we've learned is there are many different political actions being taken around the world but there are the same fears in every state and i think you didn't know that before well i think it's different to hear it from the people you're sitting with at one table to hear you know hey i may be sitting half a world away but i'm also afraid for my future and i think that that is the basis of friday's feature as
10:11 pm
a movement how do people get to this from all over europe well a lot of us took trains and some of us flew. but with some of the flu how do we feel about we feel conflicted. we definitely would never advocate as climate activists is this is this is this is this not all you know not part of the problem is. why you 2 by sliding across europe to get together to say things that you already knew to produce something that the changes nothing how does that benefit the planet i don't think it changes nothing i really don't believe that because i think that we have an immense power as a group and i think that standing together and sitting together at this table and discussing these things. this makes us make us feel like the problem is being addressed we're saying that you're not really getting a home we're not sitting at home and thinking hey i'm scared about my future we're going to go you know it all you know like the very politicians the that you don't
10:12 pm
like for having done nothing because that's what they will do they fly all over the world to sit down and talk about it and they already know you'll get your just the next generation of the same problem and i don't know i don't think i can say that because i feel that what we're doing is we're turning our actions into where we're turning our words and actions and i think well striking every friday has definitely helped us with the vote in the in the spring we definitely saw an increase here in berlin vote for the green party. the fridays for movement. movement not existed that the e.u. parliament would have voted a different way i do think so i think that right is the future has brought this issue to a lot of dinner tables where politics wouldn't normally get to we are going through the students through the children through the grandchildren if you're talking about politics if you see it on television if you hear it in the news maybe you don't feel it affects you if your child is telling you hey you know what about climate change and you're sitting there as a parent or as a grandparent i think it hits you in a different way and i think that's our job is to work on the social aspect you know
10:13 pm
we can't make policies ourselves but we can be the voices that advocate for. policy change and so what do you do when you if you don't mind me saying this in this reply to my when you grow up when you wouldn't finish. what you finish school nothing has changed so what do you do that you go on to go to work or you go and continue this sort of action i think there's a lot of ways to combine it so i think i'm going to be studying geography i think that there is a lot of possibility to enter the job market and be a person who's saying hey i'm going to find work where i feel like i'm pushing for these values and pushing for this work we can go into politics we can also work as activists to make pressure from the streets there's a lot of different ways that we can still use our voices probably even more so as grown ups and arguably the most important way is by voting so now if you will thank you so many commemoratives a circular thank you thank you. friday's future was started by high school students in sweden and quickly went international here's how d.w.
10:14 pm
foreign correspondents around the world are experiencing this youth driven green revolution. here in the united states fridays for future and other youth led environmental groups have seen a steady increase in support and in the number of protests they face many challenges most notably from u.s. president donald trump who said that climate change is a hoax and of course told the united states of the paris climate court the protesters remain undeterred and they say that they're going to make sure that their voices are heard to coincide with the u.n. climate summit taking place in new york in september. a spot in the global fight against the future movement india saw some of its 1st school strikes against climate change earlier this year hundreds of students across several cities came out to protest the government take steps to reduce carbon
10:15 pm
emissions before it's too late india's pollutants haven't reacted so far to these boxes but activists have achieved one object contributed towards raising awareness about climate change and that's sorely needed at a time when india is grappling with has a distribution of drought the waste floods in the east and crippling water in the south many of these phenomena believed in extreme weather patterns which explicitly only intensify because of climate change. in europe and especially in belgium the fridays for the future protests attracted shoes. although they took place on thursdays in belgium for whatever reason the students managed to put climate change on the political agenda again although in practical terms nothing. has happened yet the european union was not able to agree on additional measures to protect the climate the new e.u.
10:16 pm
commission president founder line promised to table a new law by the end of the year the fridays for future protests are said to continue after the summer break. and really good ending with reports that 20 years ago today vladimir putin became russia's prime minister singled out by post soviet leader boris yeltsin the young putin was a relative unknown and no one back then had any idea how he would change the country's constitution to suit his own purpose and cement his grip on the country for the next 2 decades during his 1st presidency russia's economy grew for 8 years in a row and putin won public support by cracking down on separatists in chechnya playing on this hard man in the she went on to win a series of election victories is current term runs for another 5 years and 2014 he received international condemnation when russia sees the ukrainian territory of crimea since then the russian economy has been squeezed by sanctions and falling

oil prices relations with the united states and donald trump are also tense both sides recently walked away from a key nuclear missile treaty raising fears of a new arms race despite russia's international pariah status flooded with putin enjoys solid support at home though there is growing opposition to his authoritarian repression of political opponents the w. has been out on the streets of moscow asking people what they think about the president. at the kind of story about good and bad at the same time. because he has the experience son found out there are no good changes we're not moving forward. and when you're going you don't know which until it is too long you put the murders the young people should rule the country they have more courage is all people have to be retired like me was to push really did those leave with the
10:18 pm
p.c. with the kids still so good on a sticky situation is tense in the country i'm afraid to talk about politics. you couldn't you there's never been a tradition in russia to give up the power voluntarily 1st several hundreds of years ours ruled until death so the traditions are. new age. pensions we have jobs are going to freeze on the rise the army with you know what else do we need to push another year which i quite like i think the stability is a good thing as of today i don't see if it replacement for him move usually. well his day w. moscow correspondent and we show him on how putin has held on to power for so long . well letting your putin was largely unknown when he became prime minister 20 years ago today in fact so much so that when he became president just a few months later one famous one journalist american journalist famously asked who
10:19 pm
is mr putin now he has always represented though stability he was very much in contrast to boris yeltsin his predecessor as president who was kind of known as a bit of a drunk putin represented a fresh face he didn't drink he represented stability particularly because he came to power just after the ninety's which was a decade of huge social upheaval and economic chaos here in russia just after the fall of the soviet union it's a decade that many here in russia still see as traumatic and vladimir putin was aided kind of in his 1st few years in office by rising oil prices which brought a broad economic an economic up upswing of sorts but that really still that sense that he has raised russia from his knees as many people say here in russia repeatedly about him that really is still at the core of his popularity today. i'm

their profits when buying an apartment in berlin. prior to starting the real estate prices are rising so buyers have to pay a high price for these apartments to get a return on their investment they have to charge more rent or some decide to use the apartments themselves because that's the best option from a financial point of view. this has resulted in the rents doubling over the past few years and berlin foreign investors have played a role in this but the short housing supply and large demand has helped push up the prices. oleksandr pushed and his neighbors are hoping an investor will come to their rescue but the price tag on the building is high almost $7000000.00 heroes their time is running out they only have a few weeks to find a buyer. to start with football in germany all eyes are on 2nd to hear how the club's forward back remains under
