european union of honor liar will now formally take charge of the european commission this sunday should be the 1st woman in the east top job what will your vandalize set out her plans for the presidency in strasburg saying she would focus on equality and the environment. and here she is now outlining her vision for the european union it is not only about parties and politics rules or regulations markets or currencies it is ultimately and above all else about people and their aspirations it is about people standing together for the liberty for that values simply for a better future all right let's get you some more now with our brussels birches max hoffman is in strasbourg where he has witnessed the vote taking place max so good to have you with us what is the number one issue for europeans that the president

elect will tackle 1st. it really depends on which country you ask the people and as you mention it there's a new poll out from the bell this month foundation and they say for example but the most important topic for the germans is fighting climate change in other countries like france and italy it would be job security and cutting down on the cost of living so close enough funded lion is going to tackle both or at least try to tackle both those are the most important topics one the so-called european green deal that she wants to have for the european union and the other one is digitalisation which is of course closely connected to job security the future of employment in general but you have to keep in mind today was not just about you know what they're going to do the next 5 years especially for fund and her commissioners it was also an important day after all those obstacles coming here

that they got such a convincing vote and we got to talk to one of the most important persons in that commission vice executive president marketed to vest earlier today take a listen after all the the bumps in the road of the last months you are now officially a commissioner of the new commission how do you feel well i feel great also because he's such a convincing that it's it is said to search for the members of parliament as we showed them a face that's trust in us that we will do our best and you know what they say you should enjoy the 1st day because tomorrow problems start so i know i'm very happy ok so every have problems yesterday tomorrow the problem starts to you enjoy today nevertheless you are one of the vice executive presidents of this commission with a very important portfolio making europe fit for the digital age do you think that's realistic if you look at the competition from the united states from china europe is liking so much behind don't you agree well we do not behind in some areas

but in other areas france is when it comes to research when it comes to the business to business technology well. we're doing good and the thing is that being 50 just my age is not just about developing technology it's about using technology and using it for things that we find has a good purpose better health getting more easy here from aid to be fighting pollution in there in areas where we want to we 3 d. so lots and lots of things not just a competition between china and the u.s. can you give us an example maybe one company one thing that gives you hope that europe is actually able to catch up well you see both i think the one that most of us know would be spotify because that is for us as a suster hers but where you find midst of them is in the business to business environment you know my colleague plato came from it's us they do exactly that french commissioner exactly the french commissioner that has delivered for businesses to be able to do the 2nd one of course would be

a safety which also of dealing in the business to business environment providing the dates the number crunching businesses to do that best and what will you do i mean how will you go about your job you've been in the last commission with your go do you have a different approach this time more energy less energy how are you going to do this . but i think it is a commission of of new beginnings and i think we feel more confidence was left on the line says that this is going to be more geo political which is to be sort of a more assertive europe and more self-assured europe and europe ready to take its place also on the global scale so is your message if i read this correctly to the competition in the us and in china get ready europe is coming. but we are coming from for our own sake because this is about making europe better for us as europeans but i think in that process we'll also be firm competitors towards the

others. very interesting max our europe is running its own race but they've got their work cut out for them will the president elect be able to deliver on all these very ambitious goals yeah you're right they are very ambitious and i think we need to talk about 2 things in this respect the 1st the magnitude of the goals fighting climate change is probably the most ambitious goals in the history of business goal in the history of humanity it touches upon every aspect of our life traffic what we eat just to give you 2 examples and that's why i was what i found on line wants to make sure that every piece of legislation that she crafts curbs emissions for example in fights against climate change so that's one part and even even if everything went according to plan we still cannot be sure that she succeeds but now and here's the 2nd part the environment in which she will have to operate is difficult to say the least 1st of all the different leaders in the

european union so the heads of state government are divided that's one problem if you think of hungry in germany a lot of opposition france and italy same thing and then you have this institution right here the european parliament which is more fragmented than ever since the last european elections this year so even if everything went according to plan it would be very very hard for her to get the legislation here with all the opposition so most likely you know it's just like that she will have to settle somewhere in the middle but her plan is to have these admissions goals because she thinks you need to be ambitious to achieve at least something max hoffman reporting from strasburg thank you. now i want to tell you about some of the other stories making news around the world. crowds gathered in hungary as the 1st bodies are found dead in trucks last month were returned to vietnam they were among 39 people who died in a truck and great britain the vietnamese migrants were being smuggled into the

on its armed forces while chancellor merkel pledged to increase defense spending to 2 percent of the budget by early 20. something else we made a commitment to increase our defense spending towards the margin of 2 percent and that is what we have doing the 1.5 percent until 2024 when that the defense minister has not presented a plan which foresees improvements in our nato participation so that we will reach the 2 percent margin in the case that is guaranteed. that shall start addressing the german parliament a little earlier. all right next we move to the us where present alltop is in florida rallying his supporters he can't ignore the continuing impeachment inquiry which is gathering pace and wait but he says it's an attempt but what he calls the establishment to stop him from working for the people to have these public fully alias was at the rally. it's being billed as president from home coming

here to the state of florida moved his official residence here recently from new york the republicans of course are focused on 2020 this is an important swing state which comes along back in 2016 but the ongoing impeachment inquiry has cost a long shadow over president all trump but he remains defiant it's a terrible hopes last week someone testified that i told him quote what do you want for ukraine i said i want nothing this is a quote i want no quid pro quo i want nothing tell presidents or lives to do the right way the failed washington to stop is trying to stop me because i'm fighting for you and because we're winning very soon far polls here in the united states i'm still not voters are divided over whether president trump should be impeached and removed from office to

supporters here in florida i've shown that there's a board for him is the only way for. my being that is 3 to get less and they don't have any free i mean anything it's all this. the way that people interpret things. each of them have been asked and none of them have any evidence or it's completely ridiculous or has no basis. and i think it's just a political which are think if they had would they needed to be done. with me talking about it they would already. and i think they have it's a big blow like directness and something else you know. maybe they are trying to keep these pictures negatively raising i think it's ridiculous i definitely think people should be able to have their opinions if they don't like trump that's ok but he's really done nothing wrong that should cost him t.v. you know you get what you want the ongoing impeachment inquiry entries

a new series next week but this week is thanksgiving here in the united states and president trump is staying here in florida to enjoy several days off. germany great so you're going klinsmann now has been named coach of wonderfully good team here to berlin until the end of the season while the 9090 world cup winner and former germany coach takes over from the sacked which have lost their last 4 games the games and klinsmann that last coached the u.s. national team but was fired in 2016 when he joined the herd to work as an advisor earlier this month. and to talk about this all important move tonga noise here now for sports so good to have you here tom of course mr klinsmann won the hearts and minds of germans with his team in 2006 when they won when they won the cup can he replicate that type of success for heritage well of

course that's a very big loss now he is very funny remembered as germany coach for taking that team to the semifinals back in 2006 that still remembered in germany as the some a fairy tale. was a very big part of that squad tweeted some of fairytale reloaded when he learned about this klinsmann news earlier on today now whether or not he really can be such a sick station a success for hats remains of course to be seen he's already been talking about his links with the club he said at the press conference earlier that his dad had been a passion ahead to the 1st game he ever saw in the bundesliga lawyer was here in berlin in the olympic stadium his son. played the top until recently so he does have some links and of course he's been doing his best to make himself popular with the fans at his unveiling 1st of all what he really needs to do is steady the ship essentially because hats are in 15th place in the table at the moment way below where they really have ambitions to be they haven't won since the 4th of october so what they really need now is stability and points and that's been his 1st steep

climb for them now let's talk a little bit about his predecessor kizzy didn't last very long just a couple of months i understand what went wrong for him well i think so which was always something of under. perhaps slightly uninspired choice for the top job he'd never coached a side in the bundesliga before he's been ahead for years and years coaching various used teams but perhaps his promotion was always a bridge too far has a lot we say have been underperforming in the bundesliga they haven't won in 5 games and showed that in fact really piled pressure on himself and he said when he took over in the summer with the 2 doggies against when you don't but in this season has a will and must win those games the 1st of them has already happened and they lost so he failed to be by his own yardstick and you know is last game was a formal defeat a way out that was the final straw and the club have taken pretty rapid action oh

let's look ahead let's look at mr klinsmann so is this is this for the long term and can he deliver well he's initially taking over until the end of the season so he's just going to see out the season until the summer there are reports that heads of would like nikko kovacs who's currently at bottom you need to come in and take over after him they do have big ambitions but klinsmann is just going to be there until the end of the season for the 1st well that's a start yes to deliver all right general thank you so much greatly appreciate it and we're going to stay a great football and real madrid and by the sounds i must flip the points in a thorough really champions league encounter in spain madrid join the french team now in the knockout round. well we're good looks set to coast to victory thanks to 2 goals from karim benzema but here's a mountain of a new lease come back they and the public. struck to make it to 2 peers and show on top of that group. now they've changed our lifestyles our logistics and even our landscapes but until now we've

always been in the driving seat while now with cars on the brink of a driverless era and exhibits at the london's victorian albert museum looks at their wide ranging cultural impact. looks just like a tri sickle but it's actually the 1st car on a bench from 8988 the next stop the famous cheat motor for from not you know age the advent of the assembly line and facilitated the mass production of motorized vehicles with serious consequences for society and they looked at food and what had been achieved there with the mobility do you find a lot of design is to thinking about what the future of design might be so you know about house design is in particular what we showcase in the exhibition piece to think about standardize ation as a way of producing more good small quickly and what they were really interested in

thinking about how nice it design could be made cheap and more available to more people this check was the 1st streamlined motor to hit the road back in lynchings 34. and then we see that now by infiltration into other product design and all the fashions as well so streamlining really becomes this sort of a static of modernity so we can see this shop on this flight suit as well which is appropriate rather optical but really uses a streamline the sensor to show you got the idea of pressure streamlining definitely cause all. not just for fans and brits slices but also for the 1st vote struggle. and diminishment to camp scooter. because rich facilitated the tourism in europe after the 2nd world war. relatively affordable as they could travel quite a long distance to say people could could use them to go away on holidays where

people can can drive to places that they would meet and otherwise been able to visit and kind of you know suddenly experience a whole other world. and expression shows how eventually the car turn from symbol of freedom to symbol of environmentalists destruction. we can design a better world and there are many ways to do that and i think we can draw a lot of lessons from the changes and the impact the car has had on the past 130 years of history both for good and for bad to understand how we might think again in the future about mobility. mobility is changing more rapidly than ever before and if you're not sure how best to get around you might just find some inspiration at london's victoria and albert museum.

but you know i go like this these are top stories. your appeal lawmakers have approved a new team of commissioners seeking over the executive branch of the european union or is love underlined will now formally take charge of the european commission this sunday she said she plans to focus on quality and the environment. rescuers in albania are receiving to find survivors a day after a powerful earthquake struck the country at the wooden say at least 26 people are dead with hundreds more injured. crowds gathered in her noisy as the 1st bodies of these migrants found dead in a truck in the u.k. last month were returned home they were among $39.00 people who died during an attempt to smuggle them across the border in a refrigerated unit. maltese prime minister joseph muscat
