i received a sponsor you can translate speeches on policies and development but the spotlight and issues that matter. to security issues. not have to be cheap so much more needs to be john and i think people have to be at the situations my name is on the chief. u.s. president just spent 2 days in the swiss alps boasting about america 1st and those new trade deals with china mexico and canada before he flew back to washington today truck fired a parting shot straight at europe tonight we ask is the european union now target number one for the. wrong. berlin this is the day.

they have trade barriers where you can trade they have tariffs all over the place they haven't wanted to me go shared with past presidents but they're going to negotiate with things they are frankly more difficult to do business with than china going to be able to make a deal otherwise we have to do something else i don't have a timeline but maybe i do in my own mind. also coming up it has been 75 years since the red army stopped the nazi terror. and yet the battle over who gets to write that history it reaches all. he is anyhow the fact that i asked for the fans regarding the start of willed well to them yes i'm sorry to say that president putin is knowingly spreading historic lice.

as you our viewers of p.b.s. in the united states and all around the world welcome but we begin the day with the final message that donald trump had for europe as he was about to leave the swiss alps this morning i'll be back no not the terminator this was trump the president armed with threats of tree terrorists at the world economic forum in davos switzerland the us president told the world's business elite that america 1st is working he cited the new trade deal with canada and mexico that replaces nafta he also highlighted the agreement with china signed just last week now it's important to note that trade tariffs on chinese goods have not been lifted and there is still hard and heavy negotiating to do with beijing but trump signaled today that in his opinion the most difficult trade negotiations are just starting trade talks with the european union according to the president make dealing with

china look like a walk in the park take a listen we met with the world leaders various world leaders including the president of the european commission who are going to start negotiating a trade deal with because the european commission was frankly had many ways tougher than china i say that respectfully but that's the way it is they've. taken advantage for a long time and so we're going to have a deal i suspect we're going to be able to make a deal of the as we have to do something else. it was the u.s. president there's some strong words about the european union to talk about that and i'm joined now by our very own of year on where this he is in davos at the world economic forum good evening to you so you heard it. doesn't get a deal he says we'll have to do something else is is that a threat. well it can be perceived as

a threat although we do have to at the footnote that the u.s. president has so far been quite unpredictable when it comes to his trade policies or his policies in general so it is perceived as a threat in the sense that the united states has already done what it has done with china we know that that was a full on trade dispute if not a trade war and something similar could happen with the european union as well however it's important to mention that according to most experts the united states would have far more to lose in a trade dispute of that kind with the european union that it has to lose with china because if we take into consideration all imports and exports of good incent services for example in the year 2018 the bilateral trade between the united states and the european union was 70 percent bigger than the bilateral trade between the u.s. and china. so considering that and looking at what trump said today i mean he. very

unflattering comparison between the european union and china was he telling the truth. well what is certainly true is that the european union has been often criticized for having a sort of protectionist approach to trade when it comes to sensitive sectors that are important to certain countries and perhaps that is one important aspect to take into consideration is negotiating with the european union more difficult than you go sharing with china well probably yes because with china we're talking about one country and in the case of the european union we are talking about $28.00 countries that have very different interests very different problems and that of course want to protect their own sectors so any approach for a trade dispute or for a trade deal has to be considered by 28 member states soon to be 27 as we know but of course that complicates things and that is part of the nature of the european

union and. in china we have to remind our viewers you know they're not finished yet phase one that agreement was signed last week but they're still these 2 so you know it leaves us with this question how much energy will the u.s. president and his team have for yet another front in these trade wars. well it would still has to be seen at 1st is if donald trump is going to stay in power of course that is still sort of an open question but we could say that the team around donald trump is very willing to continue on with its america 1st policy and making sure that the trade agreements are switched between bilateral talks instead of the multilateral approach that the european union and the united states once used to support let's not forget that there was a big initiative to remove trade barriers and to somehow harmonize the standards

for imports and exports between the u.s. and the e.u. in the transatlantic partnership that the u.s. ultimately ditched so this is important also to take into consideration and let's go now from trade wars to climate change the e.u. commission chief ursula found a lie and she put climate change at the center of the speech she delivered today take a listen the european green deal is our new growth strategy. the novelty. and the difference. to our fossil fuel. based model is. that we will fall still growth that is not extracting resources but that gives back to the planet more than it takes away from it. and europe has the 1st mover advantage the 1st mover advantage there is the european union's green agenda ringing any alarm bells among the business elites there where

you are in davos. well to a certain extent brand not necessarily because investors are companies or don't realize the necessity of fighting climate change they realize that there are risks by not doing so but the problem is that this is an idea that is very hard to sell especially to the regular people that ultimately decide where they put their money on that is why it was a funnel and also mentioned that group of 44 important investors in europe that asked the e.u. to sign a law to force climate neutrality because of course it is easier to tell people that they have to invest in climate neutral projects because it's required by law than just to simply say it's out of goodwill and we know that when the president was asked today about climate change he could not resist a dig at the climate change activists great tune listen to what he said. you still feel that. you're doing enough you know how we how old she

sees that to say yes that's true but what is your response to completely out of time it is and we have a beautiful ocean go the pacific ocean with thousands and thousands of tons of garbage flows toward us and that's put there by other countries so i think it has to start working on those other countries discredit all right we're trying to get our heads around that one about the trash in the pacific of year but is anyone buying the u.s. president's. in a pitch that the u.s. is leading the world as a prime mover when it comes to protecting the environment. well of course we have the experts here and we have the researchers here and of course also the environmental organizations and they came up very quickly as well as fact checkers to say that their records of the united states are not as rosy as the

united states and are trying to put it that being said let's not forget that the united states is a big country it's also a very polarized country right now also when it comes to climate change so the attitude of people here in davos of those experts and leaders is that they will simply try to continue and work with those people who believe in the climate change crisis and who are trying to fight it and they would wish for the united states president to somehow support their cause but considering that that is impossible as of now well they will simply try to work around it and as you said things could possibly change come november the w.'s have here are great is joining us tonight from the world economic forum in davos switzerland healthier thank you. in jerusalem dozens of heads of state from presidents to kings are gathering to remember the moment when the nazi genocide machine was shut down the 75th

anniversary of the liberation of the auschwitz death camp now it comes as the ghosts of anti-semitism are being seen more and more all around the world and that includes new york city which is home to a thriving jewish community and also the scene of a growing number of anti semitic attacks boston heart as this report. was this is a tense time for the city g.'s of crown heights a neighborhood in new york spiraled brooklyn. community has become the target of an increased number of attacks in recent months. now there's more police on the streets protecting synagogues and other jewish institutions. during fire soon and his friends is students at a local yeshiva

a jewish religious school anti semitism is always been an issue in this ethnically diverse neighborhood but the recent string of attacks has hit uncomfortably close to home. attacks worse on someone threw a chair at someone else or screaming kill jews there's different attacks that have a son that pointed a gun out so on that put out i have friends i got punched right a little center of crowd heights where everyone walks. the see they're not afraid but the attacks has made them more weary they want to walk by herself specially at night. just yeah i think obviously because of the increase of the fear in the community because of the recent attacks. the family that had it in that apartment had a feeling that you know you have to be more careful often orthodox jews become targets of anti semitic hate crimes because they're doing this is plainly visible. only

colin is a rabbi in the community he knows being recognizable is a risk but he says hiding is not an option never be afraid never be afraid to show who we are never afraid to to remain and or run away never the idea what kind of running away somewhere else this is this is our community and we're going to take whatever it takes to stay here and be strong but not to be afraid or to hide or to fear. but it's not only the orthodox community that's feeling uneasy l. feldman is jewish too and as with many of new york's jews you can't really tell from his looks born in israel he's been in the us since the age of 3 and olives in manhattan shia to me says the mood in the community has changed since the attacks. people are talking about getting armed and carrying guns mace weapons and learning self-defense where it wasn't even a subject before. roughly one in 8 new york city residents is jews for

centuries new york has been a refuge to jesus from a little world and this city is home to the biggest jewish community outside of israel that's why rising anti-semitism here is particularly unsettling jewish advocacy groups are saying the phenomenon is that surprising as it is complex because the sources of these recent at the semitic attacks here in the united states are multiple that they're not all coming from white supremacists or white nationalists they're also coming from street attacks in new york. by young african-americans they're coming from black hebrews what seems to be constant is a sense that there's a copycat phenomenon now it's become sort of more involved. to go after jews who are identifiable on the streets. back in town heights raney's friends see they will back down the chance that you see things stronger than he cheated if they are

it tempers. from new york back to israel one of the speakers at the event in ya bush will be. my year lao lao is a holocaust survivor who lost nearly his entire family in the book involved concentration camp he was chief rabbi of israel before retiring back in 2017 and w.'s tanya kramer met with him to talk about remembering and commemorating and the show he's finished so full the feeling. many times you thought that people who get over us. and if you forget it there is no reason to believe that another one will literally appeal. in the movie theater. and you have said that it was the rigidity of medicaid literally for

the jewish people we're in the midst but you look at that only victims as someone said not all the victims would you was but all the jews were victims. if you come from all over the woods and you make it here or shall lie it meeting today amid remember this this is a good side then kind then something from the holocaust a nice gives a promise that he would never view again the word holocaust farm also one small action taken against the rising numbers of anti semitic attacks what do you think needs to be done 1st of all education to speak in schools hold a schools and destroy g.-d. of the 2nd world war about the tragedy of the holocaust to speak to teach to

explain most of the issues today don't do it this is the one number 2 to make it to fix the laws in the policies of home all over the word against on place and it is this says point is to enforce those laws we exist already in many countries and many politicians too to make it too weak to take the call diggy. in the wise words there from read by israel may year allow speaking with the use tanya kramer well over the next few days there will be 2 commemorations of the 75th anniversary of the liberation of auschwitz the 1st takes place tomorrow in jerusalem the other next monday at the site in poland poland's president duda will not be there tomorrow he's boycotting the event the

latest punch in an ongoing fight between were saul and moscow over who gets to write history the polish government accuses russian president putin of pushing reversion ist lies about the 2nd world war a narrative in which poland's victimization by the nazis is question well israel is not just a bystander here its relations with poland are also strained last year israel's foreign minister israel cuts said that and i'm quoting here poles suckle anti-semitism with their mother's milk that drew this response from polish president duda. so all. of those there are jews who were born in poland before world war 2. and survived the holocaust. and i think that poland and the polish people deserve an apology for the words mr katz used. up of in use of such

a process that this will work but. i spoke with some of them here in warsaw when they visited poland. and these voices are also heard in new york. no doubt these words were extremely offensive towards the polish people and our country. all right that was the polish president there i'm joined here by my colleague which actual months he is from the w.'s polish service which is good to have you here on going to show let's start by talking about modern day entice them it isn't or claims of it in poland how is it being dealt with. well i wouldn't say that the issue of anti-semitism is in poland no somehow high on the agenda of the ruling glow and justice party and of the government i don't think that the government sees any urgent necessity to deal with anti

semitism in poland and i believe the government would rather say we don't have any bigger problem with that than the other european european countries but let me let me say that those statements made by israeli and minister israeli minister cats has really left poland outraged and there were some very harsh comments coming back from war so towards israel which was actually marking one of the worst and most tense face of relations between between poland and israel was there ever an explanation offered by minister cuts or why he said. well. as a farm's i'm concerned those words were said during the election campaign there were a lot of emotions on both sides in poland and in israel and we've had for example the current israeli ambassador to poland stating just couple of days

ago that poland is not a anti semitic country so i think now it's a little bit elizabeth. let's move now to the reason why mr judah will not be attending the commemoration of insead young bush him tomorrow want you to listen in to what president today had to say. the fact that i asked for the facts regarding the start of world war 2 yes i'm sorry to say but president putin is knowingly spreading historic lies you know to mr not enough that he's doing that to clear stalin's russia the responsibility for starting the war with nazi germany viggiano sure aussie style you know skin potential don't give ownership of it i assume he's ashamed of it today. stooges. which is what what do you think that the president there what is he most worried about here well i believe what what's really worrying for for the polish president is the russian president mr putin has

been very very active lately talking about the history of europe and talking about the history of world war 2 and how it began and mr putin in some several speeches accused poland of partially being of complicity in the in the outbreak of 2nd world war and indirectly of complicity in the holocaust which again made a potent outraged in the list last weeks and president under a duda he was invited to attend this ceremony out of a sham however he was not allowed to give a speech there and. president said that he will not go to yad vashem and seat there and just listen to what president putin is going to say because he will be there as well and he will be giving

a speech and it's possible that again mr putin will say something which is not acceptable for for for poland. that's why president did us that we can't allow for that to happen that i will not be able to reply to what mr putin is a yeah exactly i mean he was afraid that basically he was going to be gagged directly or while putin gets to speak poland is hosting its own commemoration at the site next monday how important is that for the country. i'm quite sure that poland wishes that this site. a former german concentration camps in poland is the central site for the remember ends about holocaust and about also liberation of of auschwitz and about the tri. judy of the 2nd world war that's why i believe the government is not really happy that this ceremony in out of a sham in jerusalem is being attended by so many politicians and that the world

attention will be there. in the have a shaman that heads of states of so many states will be speaking there and not in do you think that the government in poland would prefer that everyone good to the site and i think so yes there is somehow some kind of competition there and that we know that it's it's very important to the you know the party in power right now the law and justice party how you describe this and that you say that that fits is a not or it was a nazi death camp in occupied poland it's very important right poland is very sensible about this because there are some media and even some politicians sometimes saying something of polish a concentration camp or polish death camp and this is of course. inacceptable again

for poland because it's my sound as if it was a polish concentration camp which was not the fact it was a german nazi camp in quite poland and remembering that it's 75 years after the war a.t.f. there the outbreak of the war and so many young people have no idea what was going on during the war what was going on in auschwitz what was it's my. it may lead to some wrong impressions about what we've got we've got about 30 seconds do you think the schools in poland male considering the party that's in power are the schools teaching the history true history about what happened in poland. i guess so however yes however every country has this tendency to see its own sacrifice in his own blood to see it 1st and it's important as well on rage which

among thieves oh it's good to have you here and to provide very valuable context into this important date thank you thank you. the day is almost done but the conversation continues online you'll find us on twitter either you know the news you can follow me of t.v. don't forget used to have tag the day and remember whatever happens between now and then tomorrow is another day we'll see that.
