this is the reader's line from berlin mass evacuation the philippines reasons for a potentially devastating volcanic eruption experts say it could happen any minute or weeks from now and that's leaving tens of thousands of people in limbo uncertain of their future as they flee their homes also coming up a setback for the clomid sea in libya after army commander khalifa haftar with fuses to sign a cease fire agreement at talks in moscow turkey reacts with fury and she is promising to bring to big

a structural change to an america to protect working people but would democratic hopeful elizabeth warren be able to beat incumbent president donald trump in this year's presidential election. on little rock it's great to have you along everyone well it could happen at any time and it could be extremely dangerous authorities in the philippines fear a volcano close to the capital manila is about to erupt while the government restraint levels after the volcano began spewing ash and lava on sunday so far some 30000 people have fled their homes but nearly half a 1000000 residents remain in the danger zone. tagaytay city is a ghost town ash from the volcano is the everywhere even without and major

eruption residence have already been hit hard ass the osh from of the volcano to troubled with the wind done unfortunately it blew in our direction it or not but i didn't just effect as physically but also our livelihood boy i'll business have to close down but it'll take awhile to cleanup you doing with it and that i feel but for the workers especially those who rely on a a business to support themselves it a boy who it book are by some are already attempting a cleanup but the filipino authorities a clear things could still get much was the no not the illing nasa the condition of the tal volcano remain set alert level for that means a hazardous explosive eruption could take place in a time frame of hours today's the so look the move all of us oh i don't this is what the oath or a tease ever afraid of as well as the potential danger from love a an explosive eruption could cause part of the cocaine or to collapse into the

lake triggering as tsunami with no certainty over one disaster could strike residence and then livelihoods a left in limbo a very uncertain situation that for many many filipinos was because you the latest now i am a sound toss is covering the story for your she is add an evacuation center in the town that but tongue gusts the line is not so good so we're going to have are on the phone and a bring us up to date with the situation know where you are right now so from where we are we can already see that continue to fall tronics ash clouds from a crater but at the same time will come out of the sort of thing that you also have to look at the ground now for a better indicator of the eruption or the pressure cooker that is right now what are they looking for what are the sea. towns where portions of the soil are when they meet and greet and residents report that there is continuous number of tremors

here in these areas that are getting stronger and more frequent welcome how does it say that the one they have the 1st combined with the more frequent travelers are an indicator that is going to erupt at any point in time they just cannot count now the priority given back to chile why he was trying to sort. of about 300000 people who are in the immediate danger zone. i wonder the volcano and the surrounding villages they are in danger if you don't exactly where you carried being. called tonic projectile of a counter strike not going to hear it on the street or out of the device in kilometers per hour back to burn or carry anything in the past or volcanic anomalies and cried and then later they crashed into them a causing. you know i'm not right now i'm not an evacuation of that just isn't the

world but then comforted still an evacuation center. and it was a very charitable to say that their home against and i think it would be more truthful to say that of all of the $500.00 you have to go to all the young and the very. thing on my car going to school and although they say that they're getting about for some going in a sense it's very obvious proceed up on the base like they're great for the patients and on. they have all over a prolonged period of i don't know going back like that this is of course what makes it such a difficult situation of course on top of this prediction of a very big eruption taking place are the authorities and are prepared to deal with the fallout from a massive eruption that could take place well now we are in the forseeable future.

actually let me. connect. here and i'm very sorry that the line has gone down so we'll have to leave it there but thank you so much for describing a world the dire situation that is facing many many filipinos right now as they wait for that huge eruption to take place and it's not us reporting from the philippines thank you. and let's focus now on libya where the libyan strongman general. has left ceasefire talks in moscow without signing a peace deal aimed at ending 9 months of fighting libya's 2 warring sides met in the russian capital where russian and turkish officials needy a that the talks the grievance was signed by half stars rival fayez seraj the leader of the internationally un recognized i should say government based in

tripoli turkey's president everyone has said he's willing to teach a lesson should attacks resume so very dire warning there from the turkish leaderless take you now to moscow to our correspondent there and share when she has been tracking these talks for you emily with huffed are leaving today with no cease fire deal signed have these talks come to nothing. well they've certainly come to nothing concrete so raj did sign that peace deal but huffed are initially yesterday said he would need more time to think about it and that he would decide by morning today he then left to moscow so essentially it's a no deal there the 2 sides didn't meet face to face yesterday the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov said that some progress had been made over 7 hours of talks

and today as you said airto on has kind of been railing against her he said that have to have run away from those talks today but ultimately the fact that the 2 sides met in moscow at all the 2 main sides in this very complicated libyan conflict is a success already many countries in previous conferences have tried to get the 2 leaders in one place and though they didn't meet face to face that can be considered some sort of progress. now this is a notoriously difficult conflict what does it mean in terms of russia's influence or deliver it has in libya if any. well the fact certainly for moscow the fact that these talks took place in moscow can be seen as a big success russia has been kind of in the middle east and now in libya trying to present itself as a mediator in that region as a broker ahead of these talks putin held talks with turkey he held talks with

americal the german chancellor on saturday there's been kind of a flurry of diplomatic activity with him talking on the phone as well to the leaders of qatar egypt france and italy so parties involved in some way in the conflict trying to push for a solution now moscow officially doesn't actually support any of the sides in this conflict they've invited both. in the past as well but reports media reports say that russian mercenaries have been fighting on the side of huffed are the russian president on saturday denied that those people those russians potentially in the country have anything to do with the russian state at all but that is what reports have been saying but again the fact that has star left moscow without a deal that kind of puts into question how much influence really moscow has over

half stars well i mean talks are expected to reconvene in berlin in a few days' time let's see if they are more successful sheer emily surely reporting from moscow thank you. our let's bring up to speed now with some of the other stories making news around the world iran's president hassan rouhani has vowed to punish the people responsible for shooting down a ukrainian passenger jet the statement comes after 3 consecutive days of demonstrations by protesters outraged over tehran's initial denials of involvement . west african leaders and french presidents in manorama call have announced they will unite their forces to fight growing islamist militancy in the song held region france will reinforce its mission there with an extra $220.00 troops the focus will be the border areas linking the share mali and work in a fossil. thailand has confirmed that a hospitalized traveler from china is infected with

a new strain of corona virus the virus has been linked to pneumonia outbreak in central china is thought to be the 1st confirmed case found outside china. now to syria where hundreds of thousands of people have been fleeing governments and russian air strikes and rebel held it live many refugees have been heading north to escape the violence but with the turkish border closed thousands have been forced to live in squalid conditions and it lives over crowded camps. abandoned in the mud and near freezing temperatures and these people fled the bombs of the syrian and russian fighter jets in southern italy and they found refuge in this camp in northern syria 2000 people and cramped quarters they have barely enough to survive disease spreads rapidly. look at how we have to live i swear our situation is miserable we're living in dirt and mud many people are

sick we bring them to doctors but they have no medicine no they want. more and displacement a deadly spiral turns in the province that's controlled by islamists most. 18 people were killed on saturday in syrian army attacks the agreed ceasefire is fragile. relief supplies are only entering into lived through 2 turkish border crossings the used to be for the other 2 and jordan and iraq are close to u.n. aid. syrian ally moscow had pressured the security council claiming that cross border assistance was unnecessary since the assad regime could supposedly provide aid itself but the u.n. disagrees. this bit is collation off the stooges now that means that we need to get more 8 not less in it means that we need more access not less. in the provision of relief and to hundreds of thousands of people as at risk of failing the people

who originally need the help and they're trapped the border to turkey is sealed and the road to other parts of syria is closed desperation runs rampant in the camps. in the u.s. the race is heating up for who'll challenge donald trump in the presidential election right now there are 13 democratic candidates the crucial 1st round of voting is in iowa and that's coming up in 3 weeks and the 6 top candidates will now face off in a televised debate in a few hours time it is a crowded field to say the least but 3 candidates are at the front of the pack and we're going to name them former vice president joe biden vermont senator bernie sanders and the top female candidate senator elizabeth warren now warren is a former law professor who rose to prominence in the aftermath of the financial crisis by promising to rein in wall street it's a message that she hopes will propel her to the white house as our correspondent

found out when she joined warren on the campaign trail. she views selfies as a crucial part of her campaign and says she has a plan for everything elizabeth warren one of the top tier 2020 democratic hopefuls oklahoma city in oklahoma elizabeth warren's hometown hours before she said to speak and have former high school people are already lining up i haven't totally decided on him voting for yet but i'm interested. in any particular issues. i'm interested in you know kind of her solution for student debt and i know she's talked a little bit about portable child. here things like that are a thing very interesting to me especially as a young mom who has a lot of student. the crowd seems fired up when she takes the stage elizabeth warren talks about growing up in oklahoma i

have 3 older brothers about her family and how they struggled financially after her debts heart attack when my mother walked to the sears and got a minimum wage job a minimum wage job in america one supported family it's 3 it won't pay a mortgage cover the utilities and put on the table j a minimum wage job in america will not keep up mama and baby out of poverty that is wrong and that is why. i will elizabeth warren is running for president promising to bring about big structural change with the goal of tilting power toward the working people and away from big corporations and the rich and that seems to resonate with many in the us not only here in

oklahoma city one of most prominent liberals in the us as a young adult warren was not much of a political activist and for many years registered as a republican the university of texas in austin it was here that elizabeth warren began her work on bankruptcy douglas like koch was one of her colleagues at this time helping her relaunch empirical study on the topic is really driven. to protect ordinary americans. whatever she may have thought. but what she thinks now based on the data is there are people in deep financial trouble. not because they were wild spending sprees but because they fell through the cracks in the system as presidential candidate warren vows to take on big finance big pharma and big tick but her critics say she's too far left

corporate america's worst enemy frightening to even many democrats if the best democrats head off her is business as usual after donald trump democrats will live . in oklahoma city at least it's difficult to find anyone who isn't inspired by warrants result to fight for me as a woman it translates very personally because i most often we're not supposed to be fighters and she's changing that it's time i'm in terms of being donald trump i really think that she does a big big chance and i would love to see the 1st female president elected as president of the united states it's a long run against daunting odds that elizabeth warren hopes to win by getting out and talking to people face to face. while whoever becomes the next president of the united states will face arguably the biggest crisis in the western hemisphere the

on going crisis in venezuela well people continue to leave the country there in droves to xscape violence and security and threats as well as a lack of food medicine and essential services with more than 4600000 venezuelans now living outside of venezuela the vast majority in latin america and the caribbean it's the largest exodus in the region for decades by the end of this year the number could rise to 6500000 in a documentary that will premiere break here on news on wednesday we look at the reasons for the economic downturn in venezuela here's a preview. of the key how to and has 7 children live in a slum on venezuela's caribbean coached the children do not go to. school you know that cannot afford to pay the bus fare to get them there she has barely enough money to survive. as. my husband went to peru because of the crisis. where you are that he wanted to help us from there. honestly if he

hadn't left we would have starved here. let me alone we simply would have starved. that us and then only one of them a look at the industrial city of mary kay reveals why locals are starving the factories here as everywhere in venezuela i read a standstill only 2000 of the original 12000 still operate venezuela produces hardly anything itself anymore including food the giant cattle farms are empty. been as well as our own products have been replaced with food imports highly subsidized by the state. the system worked well as long as petroleum prices were high but as soon as they fell there were food shortages so simply had more money printed to keep the system going the resulting hyperinflation was the final blow to venezuela's economy lives with the consequences every day the children really get enough to wait for it and even then they beg me for food that they had to stand

when i tell them that i have nothing to give them their little swim and sometimes they cry it's not easy when your child bengtsson for food. and you can't give them anything. it's very very difficult. but. highly damaging system of state tera keeps the regime in power the. paramilitary gangs on to pot a government intimidate the people through arbitrary rule and tara the president has also made the military compliant. a little pool swimming maturer who installed his military friends and to keep his or shins an industry the man who heads the petroleum industry is a general. don't know what he knows nothing about oil installed military people in all key industry positions they have no idea how to run an oil industry

the. petroleum production has broken down because of this mismanagement it is now at the same level as it was in 1945 american chinese and russian political and security interests clash directly in venezuela without russia's help them a do rogue regime would have already collapsed. venezuela is just one piece in a global game of poker the losers in this game of people like maliki hata and tonight as. well that if things didn't feel beautiful to me if i had the chance. i take my children and leave i mean just like that need to go out. if they could millions more people would flee venezuela just to survive. all right let's do a deep dive now with my venezuelan colleague and journalist right here at g.w. suspended service johan ramirez in your hand good to see you and it is just so

heartbreaking we're just saying watching these people and the people of venezuela suffering so much and having to leave their country in the millions can you just talk to us about you see any like light at the end of the tunnel the situation may be improving it doesn't look like suddenly i mean when you go through that in america you see these millions of people in the streets begging money young people that you you cannot imagine they could back money in venice what i mean they don't much of them go without papers without studies i mean young people and that's the tragedy we see abroad but in venezuela that of all people have been forsaken so. these inter inner politic crisis is still there i don't think i don't see a solution i mean we have already for more than 4000000 venezuelans running out of the contrie that is not just a problem for venezuelans i mean for them but also for the for the region i mean countries like colombia that has received. 500000 venezuelans we represent like

one point of the house and $1000000.00 for the country to give then health education security and everything so this isn't president situation for the region for sure one of the mother of the biggest modern crisis in the war. in the western hemisphere and what makes this of course so tragic is very much the way a lot is an oil rich country resource rich rich country talk to us it has been an economic freefall for ever it seems now and it's still ongoing what's going on there not any any signs of improvement there. solutions we see i mean what we see now is the same osama in the government there is increasing the minimum wage he just did last week 50 percent of increase of the minimum wave but is not enough i mean last year he did it 3 times and last thank you divorce in october i mean like 3 months ago there were increase the minimum wage being 375 percent that's huge and

3 months later he has do it again because it's not enough in 2018 heating increase the minimum wage 6 times so what is going to happen is that he increase the minimum wage it goes through inflation then he with a state that is running out of money he print not banks increase again the minimum wage and then again inflation is a cycle that brings poverty and misery to the country but they keep some other in power this is a perfect segue into my next question it keeps mature in power how is it that he is still in power because you have a who is his not opponent but is also claiming to be the leader of venezuela have got 2 men claiming to be the leader of venezuela you've got 2 men claiming to be the head of the national assembly why has gone not been able to capitalize on the support that he's getting from the e.u. from the united states and why is madeira still there because well there is still supported by the army i mean he has the he has the money he can use the force

legally because he represents the state. though is a board but in that is states but inside the country now there always is still in power he can use the force. why the how to get a huge moment last year when he was he is the his tour in south america he came back to venezuela he was received like a hero for venezuela that was his moment something have been so something didn't work and then he has been after all year barely nothing has changed in the country i mean they were still in power our way though is being criticized even for his supporters so what's going next. though has given me like a 2nd brief after the safety so we saw last week in the national assembly the mind just about that what happened he tried to take his 2nd period in the in the assembly the government getting 100 to get inside the parliament so he had to take his period the 2nd he 2nd preferred in another place by the government. another

president of the national assembly so that's why we have 2 problems states and that's the big problem in venezuela so you have 2 the states going together. in the middle and it's one of the hostage suffer in and have a lot of pain and that is the drama of course the venezuelans caught in the crossfire so to speak you know 100 mira's pleasure talking to you thank you very much for enlightening us. and if you want to see the full documentary displaced of venezuela it airs here on did only news at $150.00. c.e.t.i. believe wednesday or you can catch it by heading into our you to chat channel where you can watch it on to mad are you watching the news coming up next business news with kristoff kober don't forget you can get all the news anytime you want by heading to our web site that's d w dot com ali iraq in berlin on behalf of the entire newsgroup thank you for
