by for us and moscow yury presidents putin and erika weiner are expected to address the media at any minute now have we heard anything come out of this meeting as. well indeed it seems the most important issues in today's talks in such a here in russia was through the turkish offensive into northern syria and offensive which has been widely condemned internationally including here in russia the russian foreign ministry is earlier today that the turkish military operation in northern syria was a violation of syria's territorial integrity president putin has been attempting obviously to cast himself as a mediator between the syrian government and turkey it seems that russia could help the president add one as president putin is arguably one of the best and closest allies to both of the syrian president assad and the turkish president and one of the kremlin's spokespersons me tripper scaf today reaffirmed moscow's hopes for

direct turkish syrian talks in the future told us that both countries syria and turkey house have so far objected meanwhile yury germany's defense minister has made a suggestion for the future of northern syria let's listen to what she had to say in an interview with. my unfortunate is this. my recommendation is that we establish an internationally controlled security zone in cooperation with taki and russia. and. this security czar and would seek to resume the fight against terror and against isis which currently has come to a standstill. moment to thoughts and even the call is. it would also ensure that we stabilize the region and sorry that rebuilding civilian life is once again possible. so that there is to have fled you can also return voluntarily. all right yuri listening to that suggestion is an internationally

controlled security zone something that russia and turkey would welcome. oh probably yes sumi i think so at least in terms of the kremlin official line moscow has long made a big deal of wanting more international coordination in syria 1st with the americans and the russian minister of defense by the way often complained to the n.t.'s didn't want any call to ration no the democrats are gone from syria russians could have more coordination with dirk's troops on the ground and some political cold nation with european partners especially with germany at the same time yuri syria's president bashar assad has been visiting soldiers and it led province today this is his 1st trip there since 2011 and it's obvious it's been timed to coincide with everyone and putin's meeting what is assad want to achieve here. well i think he just wanted to show that he is not only

a powerless biased and while the fate of his country is being decided here in russia in sochi by the turkish president gone into the russian president putin but he wanted to show that he is an influential player as well at least militarily while his visit to elude me also has been about the showing that the syrian armed forces have these very important territory foully on to control i think our correspondent yury rachet to reporting from moscow thank you. and you can watch our full interview with the german defense minister right here on g.w. at 6 30 pm central european time. now is some breaking news just coming into us to several people have been injured in the norwegian capital all slow as an armed man stole an ambulance and drove it into a crowd police then fired shots at the vehicle and the man has now been apprehended it's not yet clear whether the incident is being treated as

attended by dignitaries from around the world now he took pledge to fulfill his duty as a symbol of the state at the imperial palace tokyo the new emperor took the title earlier this year after the abdication office father akihito this ceremony cements his transition to the throne japan's government has pardoned more than half a 1000000 people convicted of petty crimes that to mark the occasion never he too is the latest emperor in the world's oldest hereditary monarchy let's take a look back at his life up to now. the eldest son of then crown prince. and there are so and took the world already an heir apparent but though his fate was clear his journey to the throne has been one of many firsts he was the 1st crown prince to be born after the 2nd world war and unlike those that came before him the new emperor in waiting grew up at home with his family raced solely by his parents. after attending an elite school in tokyo narrow he became the 1st japanese prince

to study abroad reading medieval european history and economics at oxford university he brings to the throne an unusually broad range of experience for japanese royalty. back in japan he would and won the affection of misako wada harvard an oxford educated diplomat she reluctantly agreed to abandon her career to marry in 1993 but over the years masako battled depression and was eventually diagnosed with adjustment disorder and there he took promised to protect her with all his might from the strains of royal life. the pair had a baby girl princess i koan 2001 the devoted father narrow he too was often seen attending his school and sporting events under the current law as a girl i cannot be next in line. narrow he chose brother crown prince a kiss you know currently holds that title. but for now all the attention remains

on the new emperor nero he says he wants to carry on his father's devotion to peace and compassion for the people he has sensed the throne as japan's 126 sempra marking the start of a new imperial era known as ray wa. and correspondent cut of the uniform choice in tyler is following the events in tokyo for us hi catalina good to see you tell us more about the ceremonies that have been taking place today. well you can see that the emperor and the empress are having quite a busy schedule to date started already at 9 am with a sheen to ceremony where the emperor was worshiped being. the goddess of the suns and at 1 pm probably with some power of the gods involved the sun came out because the rest of the day we spent in rather poor in rain at 1 pm the actual ceremony started it only lasted half an hour in the presence of more than 2 toes

and guests from over $170.00 countries the emperor was wearing a dark orange role a symbol for the rising sun a symbol for japan and his wife empress massacre was wearing a traditional chemo not all the guests were actually able to be around to ceremony was taking place so they had to be in other rooms where they could follow the ceremony on big screens and right now there's a state banquet taking place a state dinner with $900.00 guests and of course because we are in japan traditional japanese food is being served to so-called. very very expensive ceremonies cattleya now that we know this also the beginning of a new era known as we are that means beautiful harmony what's said been to the people of japan. well of course it's enough

power to fill his role but he made it very clear from the beginning that he lie he would like to step into the footsteps of his father a key he told 10 not emperor means heavenly ruler and already wanted to be closer to his people and now he too is actually planning to do the same feeling he already showed. he says way of being closer to the people japan was hit by a very violent typhoon last week heikki peace and he was travelling to the affected regions even before prime minister sheen so obviously to talk to the people or to be in contact with his citizens how important is that to the people what does what role does the emperor play in japan. well he has no political power a dog but he's still a very strong symbol he's he's a symbol for state and unity and the japanese colleague of mine explain it to me

very well he said why prime minister sheen so obviously government shows the harshness of japan also towards other countries. the emperor represents more like the kindness the law for his citizens he actually represents he's like he said like a bumper i talked to young people i wanted to know from them i wanted to know from them what the empress to be means for them personally they said well nothing for us personally but whenever we have news from the imperial family it really creates a deep or a deep feeling of inner peace correspondent catalina fun church and thank you so much. canadian prime minister justin trudeau is won a 2nd term in office but only narrowly his liberal party lost its majority and will now have to lead a minority government the election has been described as the toughest test so far

for trudeau here's more. it was a close election but justin trudeau and his liberal party retains power to my fellow canadians it is the greatest allor of my life to serve you for these past 4 years then tonight you sending us back to work for you. was we take this is course abilities seriously and we work for the for you for your families and for your future 4 more years in which governing will be harder for trudeau his party lost the majority in monday's election and now has to form a minority government to pass legislation it will need the support of smaller parties it was an ugly campaign last minute help came from former us president barack obama who endorsed trudeau i was proud to work with justin trudeau as president he's

a hardworking effective leader who takes on big issues like climate change the world needs is progressive leadership now and i hope our neighbors to the north support him for another term. as young voters all over the world get more politicised canada's young activists also have clear expectations from trudeau. young comedians have power to say. they're making less money our lives are generally more difficult than the older generation immigrant parents would write so we need our government to actually do something about something should plans to provide and his 2nd term you are sending our liberal team back to work back to ottawa 1 with a clear mandate we will make life more affordable we will continue to fight climate change we will get guns off our streets and rebook you 1st heard. promises he can only keep if he makes friends across the aisle. you're watching

d.w. news still to come on our show former football players are at increased risk of dying from dementia we'll look at a new study of former soccer pros that's raising concerns about the consequences of playing the sport. but 1st british prime minister of course johnson is continuing his push to pass his european union withdrawal deal through parliament today lawmakers are expected to vote on whether they support the deal in principle a 2nd vote is also likely on a possible timetable for debate on any amendment to the deal johnson is expected to face a strong challenge from opponents across the political spectrum from. and let's go to correspondent shot of parts in london for the latest so 2 votes today as we said on the withdrawal bill and then also the timetable for debate what are boris johnson's chances of winning these votes. well you might be surprised but

johnson's chances of getting this vote through of getting the deal through are actually very good that he might get the majority in parliament and it's a sort of symbolic sums up that parliament would give them there but of course there is a but in those as always and one is that the opposition parties will try to amend the bill they will try to bring in their own ideas on holiday want to look like that could pose as a major hurdle to the government and the 2nd one as you already mentioned is that one on the time table because boris johnson wants to push this bill through in just 3 days so a very short period of time for $110.00 pages of complex legal text and we have to say leaving the european union that is one of the most complex constitutional events that ever happened in the u.k. and parliamentarians are saying we can't do it in 3 days we need longer time so this could slow down the process one m.p. even this morning said look we discussed

a bill on the ban of wild animals and circuses longer than we are going to discuss this bill so this is not going to work for us all right so she wanted to if forced johnson fails on one or both of these votes today what does that mean. pretty much that we have back to square one we've been there before of course theresa may lost the withdrawal agreement vote in parliament 3 times already so this all seems familiar if that were to happen tonight and that means 2 things 1st of all it is most likely that we will see an extension beyond that deadline of october 31st and so the u.k. would belief on october 31st wouldn't leave the european union and the 2nd thing is that i think most likely would see fresh elections somehow because really the numbers and parliament need need to be shaken up to go over the deadlock to get over that deadlock. parts in london for us thank you for your insights

now to some other stories from around the world european commission president will say farewell to colleagues today after 5 years in the world will be giving a speech to mark his to parcher but he'll stay in office until at least the start of december to delayed european commission elections. and in northern ireland abortion and same sex marriage have become legal for the 1st time a last ditch attempt by conservative politicians to block the legislation failed the changes to northern ireland's laws were set in motion by an intervention from the british government sports now in the champions league returns tonight with germany's byron munich travelling to greece to play olympiacos i would have injury problems after a 22 draw at augsburg in the bundesliga last weekend but they seemed to be more comfortable in the champions league this season they'd be talking 7 to away in their last european outing. it's the only state that by and have looked themselves

on this season. have been wonderful champions league form but in the buddha's league on the weekend a disappointing defensive display cost them 2 goals and ultimately 2 points but whatever the splits this year i still think that our last game had nothing to do with us not wanting to defend or not being able to mention we were just missing a bit of concentration right at the start and then at the end we're working on it and i think you can definitely see that we're developing absolute to the next the defense will have to develop without key man nicholas who tore his true should ligament on saturday and could be out for the season. but could it's kind of focus and upkeep it's impossible to say exactly how long he'll be out of them and above all we need to make sure he has enough time especially as it's not the 1st time he's torn that ligament in his left knee. we won't force anything if he's better good if not we'll give him all the time in the world to recover. just because of

that that leaves kovacs with just 16 outfield players who are match fit it's a skeleton squad for a team with buy ins ambitions veteran jerome boateng could be back at the center of defense. is finally back after a lengthy spell of injury. and intimidating atmosphere will await the german champions in greece though if by and play like they have in the bundesliga lately olympiacos will present a stiff challenge only another display of their charms champions league form is sure to see them come away with the win. a new study published by the university of glasgow says professional football players face an increased risk of dying of dementia and other neurological diseases experts have confirmed a long suspected link between soccer and brain damage but they're not yet sure of what exact. causes that damage. a common

sight on football pitches the risk of brain damage and head injuries a concern shared in many sports now or university of glasgow study has a stablished a link between football and brain damage while heading the ball is suspected to be a key factor the cause has not been confirmed to find the risk of mortality with alzheimer's disease was about 5 times higher than expected population through motor neuron disease where it was around 4 times higher than to parkinson's disease where we saw doubling the study is the largest looking into neurodegenerative disease in any sport surveying thousands of men who played professionally in scotland between 190976 and while football poses a risk playing professional sport still has a positive impact overall whilst they had a higher risk of near gentle disease they had a lower risk of other common illnesses such as z's and cancers and so when you

balance that together what we find is that up to about age 70 our footballers had lower mortality we would expect from population control but once we get beyond the age of 70 the mortality increases dr stuart now plans further study hoping to conclusively prove exactly which aspects of the game up putting lives at risk. cost are tiger woods is back in action after spending 2 months recovering from a nice surgery he proved that he is in good shape at a charity event in japan and as a free return means tiger is raring to go as he bids for a 16th major title next year and a 1st a limb picoult in april this year he's moss' triumph rounded off one of the greatest comebacks in sports now after a 5th reconstructive knee surgery tiger has a long road ahead of him once again. he's got the 2020 olympics in his sights

important painters of the spanish golden age the 2 master's contrasting work is now on show at a landmark exhibition in amsterdam's rights museum part of a series of events marking the 350th anniversary of rembrandt step. behind of rembrandt year 2019 at the rocks museum in amsterdam. were the world is watching the restoration of rembrandt iconic the nightwatch life streamed across the globe it's a painting that every child in the netherlands knows but it's here in amsterdam that rembrandt meets another master painting diego velazquez. velazquez lived in staunchly catholic spain in the service of the king rembrandt lived in the dutch republic where citizens had a say they never crossed paths in their lifetime and all the countries were war with each other the old masters shirt similarities. i've never seen

a self-portrait where the eyebrows are raised as high as in this painting by rembrandt he poses a question to the audience and it's certainly directed at us who am i what's the role that i play then when i look to the other side to velasquez he painted a portrait of a very small man phillips who took these tiny men with jesters on to philip the night to behold but he doesn't paint them ridiculously at all can always this is a portrait where the last kiss takes people seriously as rembrandt notes it's. both painters represent the golden years of the countries in the 17th century the recurrent themes of power love or faith and of course realism are woven through both men's worms. the exhibition also juxtaposes works of all the dutch and spanish authors of the same period but no other comparison is as exciting as that between

rembrandt and velasquez both revolutionized the art of the time. we know that it was the friend of the king in this respect he had many freedoms on the other hand there was rembrandt to also felt obligations to the rich people who gave you money later he faced bankruptcy and moved into a slum that he said he felt much more comfortable than because he no longer had. people you know of. before going from to. die and over worked at the age of 61 rembrandt dying aged 63 impoverished and destitute but both remain on folk often. you're watching news that's got a recap of our top story turkish president to one is in russia for talks about the syrian conflict turkey attack northern syria 2 weeks ago to clear the area of kurdish militias and carve out a so-called safe sound a u.s.
