30 years later back on to charge. storage december 19th. w. . last played . the boat. this is the news live from by boeing suspends production of its ill fated 737 max allied to regulators grounded the plane off to 2 fatal crashes in just 5 months now the seattle based u.s. plane maker is halting the assembly line for one of its best salat we'll look at the fallout for the industry on the u.s.
11:01 am
economy also coming up as a global summit gets underway on the growing migration crisis we report from one of the world's biggest refugee camps in kenya to adopt was never meant to be a long term solution to get the most people live as a refugee camp in the camps is all they know the u.n. says world wide more than 26000000 people have been forced to flee their homes some to spend their entire lives in camps like this one. and pakistan's former military rule a pair of asma shot it is sentenced to death i caution is not about announce a decision for him a shot of years long trial on charges of treason. and headed home free glad you could join me us up. they make
11:02 am
a boeing is suspending production of its 737 max as linus starting in january the best selling aircraft was grounded last march following 2 fatal crashes in just 5 months now boeing has not delivered any $737.00 since then while it worked on the cause also those crashes the production freeze by one of the largest u.s. exports as will impact supplies and airliners around the world as well as the u.s. economy. there are 400 brand new 737 max aircraft parked in boeing's holding area they've been grounded since april this year some are even parked in the employee parking lot the production stop slated for this coming january is a drastic measure and it's bad for boeing's $12000.00 employees i think hauling production as is a pretty major downside disrupts the whole supply chain that puts labor and terrible. causes. a real loss of the economies of scale
11:03 am
that this airplane has that you keep that assembly line go on because of all the efficiencies in october 28th seen as 737 max crashed in indonesia then another one went down in ethiopia last march 346 passengers were killed in those 2 plane crashes with the 737 max is faulty steering software playing a decisive role in both incidents so far boeing has been unable to deliver a software correction that can be approved by the u.s. federal aviation administration this 737 is boeing's best selling aircraft airline's of place thousands of orders so u.s. airlines and european air carriers of had to cancel flights due to lack of aircraft the airlines themselves are in just a terrible spot because they're selling spring break they're selling summer without knowledge of what their fleet is and all parties need to have complete transparency here so we can come up with some reasonable plan you know get this crisis get
11:04 am
things back on track the loss of production at boeing might have a ripple effect that could burden the entire u.s. economy. let's talk through all of this now i'm joined by monica janes from the business good to see money i then i took us through this how big of a blow is this the boeing as well as the u.s. aviation industry well off try to give us some numbers some facts and figures helen and of the 77 men. prices already cost a boeing some $9000000000.00 and there are experts out there who say well now this could easily double that's a huge amount and of course i mean yesterday when the news came that they would suspend production of the $77.00 max shares fell by 4 percent that is not a crisis but it's quite a drop also now this decision to suspend production of the 7 speech 7 max is on president and it does have a big impact on some $600.00 suppliers and companies are all linked to boeing
11:05 am
and thousands of jobs of course just to give you an idea of the cash flow of g.e. aviation that's the company that makes the engines for the plane together with a french company a france a saffron now they say that they'll be hit with a loss of roughly 1400000000 this year alone and things could get worse and then of course there are other companies that are highly dependent on boeing like fuselage make a spirit every systems the 737 max model accounts for 50 percent of that company's revenue that is the blow boeing can either say well that's bad luck or they can't pay these companies so that they stand right ready in case the 77 max gets airborne again nevertheless it certainly sounds costly and i can't help but wonder about those ally and say that have already ordered one of these models i mean we're going to how is that i mean that those airlines now for more than 9 months mostly u.s. airlines they have the biggest fleet of 7 $37.00 max they either have to cancel
11:06 am
destinations which is costly or they have to lease different aircraft which again is costly for them also impacts chinese airlines they have a lot of those this aircraft this particular model and the 3 biggest chinese airlines actually were among the 1st to sue boeing and also compensation which is why boeing this summer set aside aside $5000000000.00 to live up to that. we now know that is by no way means enough there's also european airlines like ryan air is a big custom of the 737 max a barrel hit the ramifications are huge do you think that boeing will be able to come back from this in the near future well that is i mean as you said i mean boeing is one of the largest exporters of the united states is certainly one of the biggest names in the u.s. corporate world there's no way that the white house the administration would lead
11:07 am
to go of boeing they'll be way somehow to somehow supported but experts look at it is say how could it be that a company like this miscalculated the situation so badly that they would continue production now they have a backlog or that they sit on $1400.00 aircraft in storage we don't know whether they were ever be airborne they have underestimated just the time it will take for recertification and all of that is problematic but boeing keeps on message they say we will be airborne again prior you already is safely returning the $77.00 max to service. and i mean given the fact that most of us still fly boeing just not 77 max it'll probably work out for boeing in the long run right we'll have to see of course 2020 an election year in the u.s. as well the ramifications for the u.s. economy that umaga jones thanks so much. well a court in pakistan has sentenced the country's former president pervez musharraf to death he was found guilty of high treason for suspending the constitution in
11:08 am
2007 which i've ruled pakistan with a heavy hand from 1999 to 2008 after leading a bloodless military coup against a civilian government to avoid a challenge to his rule he suspended the constitution and purged the judiciary now musharraf is currently in self-imposed exile in dubai and was tried in absentia. well that's brain shama shams now from the w. h. o. welcome shadow do we have any more details at this stage. what we know is that the code has handed death sentence to musharraf and that censure so short of still has the right to appeal in a supreme court the supreme court and he's most likely going to do that and also abroad mr carranza government is supporting sheriff in a way that they want the trial to be that they have tried that the trial would be
11:09 am
shifted to another court and all doug so it's not done yet it's not a done deal that mature of would be exact q did but but the word. hugely significant symbolic role you is immense because no military dictator in pakistan and the ball 72 years has been handed this kind of sentence how do you mention that right to appeal in light of that is the sentence likely to be carried out do you think. most likely had been to be but it all depends on the. head of legal team and promised on the government now. as i said that musharraf has the right to appeal so he would take it is steam would take it to the superior court and probably they would have a different decision what we need to focus at the moment is that this decision itself is very weighty symbolic military is an immensely powerful institution in pakistan no one has
11:10 am
a civilian institutions have never jalen judged the military in such a way so what we see this decision today is immensely important and we see nothing should be you know taken away from it and what about musharraf supporters how are they reacting to this latest development. one was sort of how some supporters and also abrams' are con supporters kind of you know have they sympathize with musharraf they think. did a good job when he ran from 199-2008 the country the economy was improving he acted against islamist terrorism and all that and also that you know there's a slogan this idea. that believes in. one person one can you know hanging up politicians and all that but the fact is that musharraf suspended the constitution he committed high treason and he has been
11:11 am
given a sentence no so i don't think that musharraf supporters will take to the streets or something which are of house to follow a legal course. because if he does not have that kind of support that people will protest in his favor shams from d.w. asia thanks for that thank you letter let's take it up now on some of the other stories making news around the walls supporters of lebanon's 2 main a shia groups have rioted and clashed with police in beirut the violence was triggered by an online video that showed a man insulting shiite need it to heighten tensions comment lebanon's president delayed talks on naming a new prime minister. firefighters in australia are battling to contain a blazes in the blue mountains national park west of sydney hundreds of bush fathers have been raging across the country for months conditions are getting was temperatures in new south wales all set to top 40 degrees celsius. when
11:12 am
i go i will summits has started in geneva aimed at finding better ways to support the world's growing number of refugees is the 1st meeting of its kind it brings together politicians business leaders and those affected people who have been forced to leave their homes the u.n. says persecution and war have forced 26000000 people around the world to flee their homelands almost half come from just 3 countries we're talking about syria afghanistan and south sudan and before the conflict in syria the single largest refugee population was palestinians now most refugees live in countries bordering their own some spend their whole lives in camps like that up in a kenya like mohammed from somalia who we meet in office report. mohamed he has come to pray at his father's grave hidden away in one of the biggest refugee camps in the world. he's here to honor the memory of his father but this
11:13 am
site is also yet another painful reminder of his own suffering. i feel sorry for the times still living in the camp where my father got sick passed away. mohammed's parents fled their still conflict ridden home country somalia almost 3 decades ago to see graffitti in neighboring kenya when mohammad was a child he would have never throughout but at the age of 28 he his wife and 3 children would still be refugees here according to crimean rule they are confined to life inside the camp and are not allowed to walk. both my wife and i were born here our children were born here it's very difficult to stay where you are born for your entire life we don't have the freedom of movement which is a basic universal human rights. i feel like i'm in
11:14 am
prison and i'm not able to leave. mohamed is one of more than 200000 refugees here in. the fields unwanted in kenya the government has been threatening for years to close the camp heightening his feelings of uncertainty he also feels neglected by the international community which has shifted its attention to other humanitarian crises elsewhere. dad was never meant to be a long term solution yet for most people life as a refugee here in the camps is all they know there's drawn out in camp ground that is here 18 level of humanitarian assistance and the only distant prospect of a settlement has collectively taken a severe mental health. toll on thousands of residents. fled sounds one of the n.g.o.s operating here says the protracted crisis in the camp has caused a growing number of refugees to develop mental health conditions. depression is one
11:15 am
of the illnesses we truly see. becoming increased amongst the if the depression is serious because most of the time you get refuges attempting suicide it's actually due to depression. mohammed says he suffers from anxiety and insomnia and he's not alone he says many of his traumas school friends have given up hope some of them drifted into drug addiction yet the others have even committed suicide and 2nd they did with. my friends have hung themselves because of what they are going through it's happened several times in this camp because sometimes i think about killing myself because of the hardship i'm going through but then i think of my children they always say for me. mohammed says he's not ready to give up just yet he wants to fight on for his children so that they can have
11:16 am
a better future so they can get an education and then joy the freedoms he never had poem sell his wish is to leave the camp before he dies so that he doesn't have to be buried next to his father as a refugee. or for more on this let's bring in now martinez and she engineer he works at the u.n. refugee agency thanks for joining us mohsin what exactly can we expect from this conference. thank you don't well this is not just the not to come for and the global refugee forum that's the 1st world summit on refugees is on the board you know just being governments you're donating some money it's about the whole of society approach that we have you know private sector we have a dam yeah we have 4 states they cost and countries and they have all come together through this summit we have more than 2004 year. to fill the gap and to find terms of both solutions for the mall them 26000000 refugees that we have in the world.
11:17 am
now this issue it really hits young people we're talking about possible refugees 80 what are the biggest challenges connected to that. it's a new significant challenge because what them to tell of them that only you know defeat them to give don't war to give them shelter because of the main issue is they have no perspective from in life they have no prospects the average duration of stay in the refugee camp is 25 years and that is terrible and it's not sustainable and those young people especially they need those perspectives through education for example the german stuff the program is that tangible the towns of old program what really makes a difference for delegates young people and we need more of that. we need people the refugees to be self-reliant we need programs for that and that's what we're here for at the phone from on that point martin what role does germany play at this
11:18 am
forum. germany has. over the last couple of years has been the front runner of refugee protection because it's one of the few countries that not only significantly finance its humanitarian assistance in conflicts such as. in jordan and other countries but it also took in quite a significant. amount of people more than 1000000 so i can speak to both sides you know. germany is on the level we're at the eye level with countries like can you know all the people within that in the middle east and they can relate to the problems there and sold germany the role it's really crucial to address the global problems that there are in terms of refugees. that said increasingly we have seen the fact that another real problem is that those countries receiving the greatest number of refugees now often left alone when dealing with them any ideas
11:19 am
on the table of how to better support those countries. absolutely and you're you're right i mean to be precise actually more than 8585 percent of the refugees globally they live in poor countries and this this needs to change those countries they need much more support and it's not a problem it's not a problem about you know ideas. the problem is about. a lack of in the mentation of these ideas and that's why we are here for this of this forum to connect new players that have come to the table such as the world byron called the private sector to have a real hall of society approach and to not all need to rely on humanitarian bio such as u.n.h.c.r. to address the problem from the field or at most entrenched from the un refugee
