people take to the streets of the capital santiago and elsewhere in the south american country to the biggest rallies yet in a week of protests in which at least 19 people have died. and is it a bridge is it a building and art gallery or a work of art itself we go to a valley in that haven of high design in norway to take a look at the twist. i'm married to evanston it's good to have you with us germany's foreign minister has called for a lasting cease fire in northern syria after talks in ankara mosques and his turkish counterpart show little commented on proposals. to limit the conflict on

syria's border travel show lou blasted germany for criticizing turkey's offensive against kurdish militias calling for more solidarity and what ankara sees as a fight against terrorism for his part the german foreign minister urged turkey to comply with international law when dealing with refugee moss' visit comes amid tensions over turkey's military campaign in syria. for more let's bring in our turkey correspondent who's standing by in istanbul so you tell us what came out of that meeting between the 2 foreign ministers. well it's been quite attends a meeting today in this is because the german foreign minister had previously called turkey's a military offensive in the northeast of syria and i quote him here an invasion that is not in accordance with international law of cause government does not want

to hear such criticism and that is why his turkish counterpart may have. in a press conference today accused harshly accused german politics and german media as well disproportionately criticizing the offensive and offensive that so far has killed many people on both sides of the border and that has displaced an estimated 300000 people unoffensive turkey still insists it is about protecting national security and fighting terrorists and there you hounded the german foreign minister response to this criticism. well i think it became clear today that germany considers turkey a very important nato ally too important to lose so with kathie lee watching the words he was using that he pressed again for

a durable cease fire in the region let rima let me remind you here turkey paused its military offensive off a u.s. backed truce on a separate deal with russia earlier this week but this deal with russia will come to an end on tuesday and it remains to be seen what will happen next so it's important for the german foreign minister that turkey won't start it so peroration there again and the other big issue is the safe so in the so-called safe zone turkey wants to establish a north and syria prison and wants to resettle up to 2000000 refugees currently living here in turkey to these areas and there have been reports there has been criticism about possible forced returns to these areas and today. the turkish foreign minister confirmed again that any returns would be voluntarily that was an important message i think for the germans here. so disagreements of course but

i think for the german side it's very important that they keep talking to each other now you know what about this proposal by germany's defense minister for an internationally controlled security zone in northern syria did that idea come up in the talks today. it did come up but rather as a side note because this is not an official proposal by germany's out federal government it's a proposal by the defense minister and the foreign minister did not back that proposal so he did not go to today and pitch the idea to his turkish counterparts but still journalists were asking about this proposal and this is when they have a child the turkish foreign minister has said he doesn't think this idea is realistic all right 100 porting for us in istanbul thank you very much. let's get

a check now of some of the other stories making news around the world in iraq relatives held funerals in baghdad and the city of new jobs for anti-government demonstrators who died in violent protests on friday at least 42 people were killed and thousands were wounded hundreds of protesters have again gathered in central baghdad for another day of mass demonstrations. medical workers in hong kong have joined a rally in the heart of the city's financial center they've been demonstrating against perceived police brutality during more than 4 months of anti-government protests demonstrators are angry about what they see is creeping chinese interference in hong kong. british police are still trying to identify the $39.00 victims found dead in a truck in essex earlier this week at least 2 vietnamese families now say they fear their relatives are among the dead it was originally thought that all of the victims were chinese nationals. turning now to chile

where across the country massive crowds have taken to the streets for a 7th day of anti-government protests now demonstrators are calling for economic reforms and the resignation of president sebastian pinera. this side of the largest demonstration by far was in the capital santiago. a march set to go down in the history books as possibly the largest ever seen in chile an estimated 1000000 demonstrators converged on downtown santiago bringing traffic to a standstill as crowds made their way to central plaza italia protesters vented anger over low wages and pensions inequality and the rising cost of education and health care their fury has been fanned by president sebastian pinera response to a week of unrest imposing a state of emergency and night time curfews protesters called on him to listen up

or resign. you're going to be made up to make the 1st thing the president has to do is get the military off the streets and change the cabinet and he needs to ensure that there are conscious people making statements to the country that are consistent with what people want listening to the people that soul. president pinera has already promised social reform measures and in the face of friday's record breaking rally he took to twitter stating we have all listened to the message we have all changed. but his post is unlikely to quell public anger as night fell violence erupted once again with demonstrators fighting pitched battles against police on the streets of santiago. a woman who confessed to spying for russia has returned to moscow after serving more than a year in an american jail maria bettina's case rose to prominence around the same time as the mother investigation into alleged russian meddling into the u.s.

rush hour yeah if you like the mission was to promote russia's interests among senior republicans it got her as far as direct contact with donald trump before his election as well as with one of his sons putin has said that she's innocent the foreign ministry says she was humiliated as a human being as a woman. just to see this is a. country we should have absolutely east yeah very friendly. on their mind yeah the only thing. she was just supporting their relationship and friendship with the people not in the country she's now been released from prison early describing her own fight to get out of jail she said quote russians never give up. all right let's turn to some sports now and the rugby

is the true power of architecture. the danish which was a brought his vision to life on the inside and outside as you move through the structure of the walls gradually become the feel one ceiling and vice versa. even before it was opened to the public his creation was the talk of the town living in the neighborhood i'm really proud of this this is world class satire. brand new respect their right. to it through the heart of architecture is art is going to. the 60 meter long chess spans across the river runs. it say it's both as a breach and a sculpture as it connects 2 parts of the case to force museum the sculpture opened in 1909 on the grounds of an old pulp mill the same landscape that used to be littered with logs from the surrounding forests has been transformed into an open

aspect developed it includes masterpieces by artists like tony cragg have for. english has been a newest addition to this list of illustrious names i think every time you're making. a building. with him that footprint you have the chance to create something that is closer to your dream world designs. with a wound like this skyscraper in you and he wanted it to be innovative and playful also staying functional and sustainable just like the lego museum in denmark his company b.-i g. that bianca england's group employs over 500 stuff. currently planning the 2nd tele the world trade center. as an architect you build the buildings and then on opening days you hand over the key to the museum berta in this case and then i'm going to become a guest writer but by the same time i think it's also important to remember that
