this is the doubly newsline from ballet and the young climate activists are returning to the streets reza talk about fridays for future movement stages another day of march there around the world but so we've gone from the biggest mass protest in history world that it's closer to the policy change also on the program afghanistan gets ready to elect a new president on saturday despite

a surge in taliban 5. joins a teacher in kabul facing the daily facts of suicide bombings. the u.s. president abused his power and the white house covered it up the accusations of a whistleblower whistleblower by their very act of coming forward as showing more dedication to country. than the president himself. democrats worked to build an impeachment case against donald trump because he tells supporters it's all just a big hoax. the new york sculptor who specializes in making out of everyday objects tom sacks shows off his creations in a major retrospective here in germany. i'm still gail welcome to the program. so fridays have come to be linked with

climate change demonstrations and more protests are being held around the world today tens of thousands of students are crowded more than $49.00 of new zealand's public spaces joined by their parents grandparents and others in the country's 1st intergenerational strike to demand action on climate change local media put the crowd in wellington new zealand's capital about 40000 we now have a look back at a landmark week for environmental campaigners spearheaded by the now world famous swedish teenager grettir talk about. this is all wrong. i shouldn't be up here. i should be back in school on the other side of the ocean. just so you'll come to us young people for hope.

how did you. get. this if you believe in hope not i do disagree with her on at least one measure she gave a stirring speech in which in my opinion it was not made clear enough in what ways technology and innovation especially in the area of energy but also in the area of making energy savings opening up possibilities of reaching our goal it's. a sin and it's a little i think we must let our children be children let our kids be kids without teen i just between us while we do the work. we have to turn by receivers the right labrador for inspiring and amplifying

political demands for climate action reflecting scientific fact. we will not let you get away with this right here right now is where we draw the line. the world is waking up. and change is coming whether you like it or not. thank you. i. let's talk about the difference these protests have made to climate policy here in germany look as carla speaks on climate policy in the german bunds talk for germany's opposition free democratic party welcome to d w let's start with friday's for the future of what your party is feeling about these demonstrations well 1st of all we have to say that they used generation that is inspiring so many politicians to ward small climate action is great however what

when we see the changes we see in the movement in germany right now it's still good that we challenge that there's a challenge posed by them to was put in to act to do more but on the other hand there are movements within the movement right now that are going democratic that are going to worsen and see market oriented approach and that that is moving away from the agenda setting more call for more climate change and yo yo yo party's leader has just tweeted tweeted in german but it in english i think political engagement of students is great however children and adolescents cannot be expected to see all global context the technically meaningful and the economically feasible this is a thing for the pros i'm just stunned by that well i i i would say that this is not the not the way to phrase to phrase it but the very set his itself i do think in its core is correct because he's not saying that the pros are the politicians but

he's saying the pros are the scientists for future and the fridays for future have at least in germany move towards help from scientists for futures from engineers for futures from people who deal with tackling climate change from a scientific but also from an engineering based view every day ok so. it's hard to know it and it's very interesting follows results that you so your leader says to the children leave this to the pros you says that you say that you know your leader phrased it badly but he was right in what he said absolutely ok germany's coalition parties last week we could go today in fact announce their response that they they headed to new york a series of proposals they talked about carbon pricing phasing out coal power getting more electric cars on the road home is that you know well we already see that this will not be enough to meet the 1.5 degree target and that is bad for

the climate but that it's also bad for politically for the political well for the political worth in germany and just because we would have had the chance on friday to set a real goal to really propose positions that will reach these goals and all economies f.t.p. would have gone further yes of course was a different approach what is the what is so what is the biggest failing and what the german government has proposed on the sea to limit there is no c o 2 limit there is no there's no good way to to see that the goals will meet their targets but. what it and what is missing or what is badly designed says to pricing because that should be the backbone of every climate change policy if you will go to emit c o $2.00 then you need to pay for it and pay big absolutely and you don't believe the price is set a high enough well the price is set on a while for our proposal the prices are not the problem because we would have set the limit and then have a trade in emissions trading system but if you choose the way to go for

a suit you texting then the prices are not by by any means near enough to what they have should have been on the one hand and then the other hand they are badly designed because there are lots of law. or driven questions this is not clear if there is a text the way it's use and working in germany all this stuff is not clear if you read it does sound like really the pressure is on the from from whichever whether it be from publishers like yourself or indeed from the public fanaa those. from germany is a free democratic party thank you. now to afghanistan where millions are due to vote in presidential elections on saturday despite the threat of terror attacks the united states entered peace talks with the taliban earlier this month the islamist militant group is threatening to disrupt the election with suicide bombings and rocket attacks with danger and violence a reality of daily life in the country w joint

a teacher in the capital kabul who's determined to lead a normal life. i think is a scene that could be playing out any way in the won't. do you cope on is helping her daughter with her homework after school. khadija is a teacher and has high hopes for 8 year old mariam and for her 15 year old son a solid. but as a parent she has it harder than most she's raising her children in one of the most dangerous places on earth kabul the capital of afghanistan. it's. the overall situation in afghanistan is full of destruction. but every 2nd people are living in fear of an explosion and i worry if i step out of the house i may not make it back alive. their. teacher and her family are among millions of afghans living every day with the prospect of being killed in a bombing or suicide attack. the u.n.

says nearly 4000 civilians were killed in 2018 that's the highest figure since it began compiling numbers in 2009. violence has already struck at the heart of khadija is family. 2017 her brother colleague was killed in an attack while on his way to work. when i went to see his body it was very difficult for me it had a great impact on my children especially my son for months after he would say why was my uncle martyred it wasn't his time he was so young. sergio and. teachers determined to prevent her life and that of her children from being derailed by the tragedy. she's doing everything she can to lead a normal life and to make the best of the situation in a city convulsed by a tax. law i always say keeping yourself from work from life is wrong we

can't just say that things are bad and stay at home to do nothing otherwise your life will be paralyzed. took a detour her job as a teacher at a private school in kabul is one source of strength she say she's inspired by the children's optimism but she also sees it as a way of making a difference to the future by teaching the next generation about the value of peace . of theirs and i am still hoping for a life where one day it will be completely different from today. where we won't fear that our children or our families are in danger that's the kind of life i dream of. the cafe landed in that says. that for the children at school and for others across afghanistan that dream still seems a long way off all right. let's take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world the british

oil tanker seized by iran in the strait of hormuz and 2 months ago as left iranian port where it and its crew were being detained the stella imperial was taken by iran's revolutionary guard just 2 weeks after an iranian tanker was seized by britain that ship was released in august. saudi arabia says it is to start offering tourist visas for the 1st time as part of the leadership's push to diversify its oil based economy the ultra conservative kingdom will initially our holiday makers from $49.00 countries this is were previously only granted for short term business trips religious pilgrimage or for travelers with a family in the country. the european commission president john called the young guys told german media that the e.u. is doing all it can to reach a deal with the british government said that if talks fail it'll be britain's responsibility. the us president donald trump has lashed out at the

democrats impeachment inquiry describe me as a disgrace and seeking ways to end it the whistleblower complaint against him has now been released in it an unnamed intelligence officer alleges that mr trump ukraine's president to investigate joe biden mr trump's leading democratic rival in next year's election the complaint goes on to accuse the white house of suppressing the details of that phone call on thursday the acting director of national intelligence explained to congress why he hadn't passed on this information. caught up in events. beyond his control. to me is the lenski on his 1st visit his ukrainian president to ground 0 to form a comedian was only elected 5 months ago and now he's at the center of an impeachment inquiry. it was all triggered by whistleblowers complained accusing donald trump of soliciting interference in the 2020 u.s. election by pressuring mr is a lengthy to initiate or continue an investigation into form of vice president joe

biden and his son hunter biden things this man house intelligence committee chair adam schiff precipitated the release of the complaint does not 1st offend the clearly this month he said painted u.s. spy chief joseph mcguire to make him explain why he hadn't passed on the letter to the committee that whistleblower by their very act of coming forward has shown more dedication to country more of an understanding of the president's oath of office than the president himself in a tense hearing mcguire defended his handling of the whistle blows led a point he would not add see if he consulted with the president of the matter out but he stressed that officials like the whistleblower had complied with government rules. i have every reason to believe that they have done everything by the book and follow the law and docs are now the mainstream of the republican party is standing by president trump they say the whistle blows complaint is full of he say

and doesn't prove its case a person and that he's democrats of using the letter is part of an ongoing we charge against the president they don't want answers they want to public spectacle and so we've been treated to an unending parade of press releases press conferences and fake news stories away from the fury in congress at the white house president trump support for sheriffs he was there to highlight his credentials on crime and it's like it's rao of a way that he's broken the law. let's take a closer look at this with boris foreman who's a political scientist at bard college and he's an expert on politics on policy in the united states welcome to d.w. so the perennial trump question how damaging is this for the president i mean you're absolutely right it is a perennial question and you wonder sometimes if it's the experts are always wrong

or if it's something else and it seems like trump is playing to his own rules and i think what the democrats are trying to say no democracy needs certain institutions and certain rules and if we don't play by them then that's a danger for democracy and they have to act so this is this this is dangerous where might this end well i mean it will probably end in an impeachment trial which probably will fail because the senate in the most part is a republican or the majority is republican however i think as it is this is it that would be a 2 stage process if it is exactly so that they need the democrats need a majority in the house of representatives then the trial goes to the senate and the senate needs a 2 thirds majority which is almost impossible to get but one would not there yet we're at this stage in now where. they are inquiring to find out whether there is sufficient evidence exist on the process and i think the decisive point will be to see whether this release transcript is accurate depiction of what happened in this

conversation whether there are actual recordings which could be looked at and i think as this unfolds i mean already gained some of mentum yesterday over the course of the day i think well at some point republicans might have to take a decision what is known about that the the whistleblower who who initiated the complaint well the new york times released a short statement yesterday saying that the. official and they released another statement today that they did so because they wanted to lend credibility and credentials to that person because there had been some critique of who that person might be and if it's actually a credibility credible figure so that's what what happened so as ever in these sort of allegations there was an initial alleged mistake and and then there was a cover up this allegedly so does this look like it has the potential to be involved mall people than just the president. that. we hear that

there's 12 or dozen people roughly a dozen people who listened on the call so there will be additional witnesses and there's i think a major difference to the mother report which just went back and forth over over a couple of months and lost steam on the way and then there was the press release and so on and so forth and there was no it was not a pointed action that the democrats were able to. use to exercise now this time around it seems to be much more pointed and much more focused and i think this this is the reason why it might have more potential for the democrats let's pick up on a point that you mentioned earlier you say that this this might be actually part of the president's strategy this could become a sort of rallying cry for his base explain that well there's i mean us politics is very divided the media are deeply polarized the parties even more so and so of

course trump is going to try and spin it his way is the democrats are trying to spin it their way and so he will emphasize that this is again witch hunt that democrats are undermining the democratic process and they're trying to just stop him from doing meaningful policy that's probably going to be as line of defense and we'll see how many voters he'll be able to mobilize with this good till he takes the journey of political scientists about his form from the bad college in the. so iran president hassan rouhani has called on the united states to end its policy of maximum pressure and urged washington to return to dialogue logic and reason speaking in new york today after addressing the united nations president rouhani also said he would be prepared to hold talks if president trump lifted sanctions against iran the w.'s on its wonderful nominee spoke with u.s. special representative for iran brian hawk and asked him about washington strategy

the u.s. government has imposed new sanctions and travel restrictions on the iranian regime bads to iran as seems to remain defiant so it's you mix and pressure strategy not working no we're very pleased with it and we're also very pleased here at the united nations this week that germany france and the united kingdom have announced that we need a new nuclear deal that is much more comprehensive than the iran nuclear deal that the united states left last year the iran nuclear deal failed to cover iran's missile program in fact it relaxed constraints on iran's missile program and now here today we see the consequences in the middle east with iran using missiles to attack saudi arabia so we think this was a very productive and good week with our european friends they all said that iran is behind the attack on saudi arabia so i think the press has overstated our differences and i think the announcement this week is an example of that however as

you said to tensions have been right think recently so i we getting close to 20 to conflict i don't think so that really is a question for iran we are committed to resolving our differences with iran diplomatically the problem is that iran is answering our diplomacy with military force and i think what they did against saudi arabia meets the definition of an act of war so it's what i saw this week at the u.n. our nation's increasingly diplomatically isolating iran for behaving like an outlaw state that doesn't respect basic international norms. france and germany are trying to mediate between the u.s. and iran to facilitate a direct talks are you willing to embrace or help well we have made clear from the president on down that we are very much open to talks with the iranians they will continue to say no and so iran faces a choice they can either come to the negotiating table and work out our differences

diplomatically or they can watch their economy collapse as our sanctions intensify it wants you to lift some sanctions is it going to happen i think the burden is on iran to demonstrate that it has reached a change of heart and we had attacks in saudi arabia only a week or 2 ago and so i think what the world should be asking is not whether the united states is going to lift its pressure but when will iran stop using military force instead of diplomacy thank you so much ok thanks for having me on xander phenomena reporting now the art world often deals with matters subline that's a major retrospective here in germany showcasing the work of a new york sculptor who specializes in creating pieces from everyday objects which he collects almost obsessively those creations on the show in sindo think that in central germany. the planting and collecting is something very human and making

them to seem to find is the basis of civilization tom sachs is the fact of this mess and he's what it's all about searching and finding he is a must for collage and specialty is. and. means to build and repair with available limited resources. so you'll find so many of these materials are. made with things. at the heart of the exhibition is the t.c. ceremony it relates to an ancient japanese ritual in which one step on very precisely after the other sacks this is a very personal the installations in 3 different rooms over like to tom sachs is no experience. it's also my tea ceremony and one of the important parts about the tradition is innovation and taishan to

the current situation it's very personal experience. what the audience has personal recollections of. is not known but this is a faithful reconstruction of the original genuine fake as sex calls it hot artistic work so for me the ritual is really about making and the reward for good work is more work many many months many things at once so that the ideas can cross pollinate so that one problem can be solved by another problem rituals and ceremonies are reflected in sex words his work and life are a high office the central element is water the water of life at the end all food in a teacup. but sex does have a sense of irony when it comes to his passion for collecting. so this is my 1st 100

attempts these are all failures this is a cabinet of losers. this is me learning because the great privilege of being an artist is to educate and entertain myself so these are my 1st attempts and as we walk over there you'll see if these are all losers those are the heroes complex works are about searching for and finding beauty and about. making the best of it. sports on brazilian football the neymar is serving his former club barcelona the 27 year old had been linked to return to the la liga champions in the summer or chief benchley fell through today he is in court claiming that barcelona failed to pay a loyalty bonus of $26000000.00 euros the club rejects his claim and discount to serving him for part of a bonus that had already paid a salon also accuses the superstar of breaking his contract when he joined perry
