her supporters say slavin i was under near constant pressure by the authorities she had to pay several fines for her work at the independent media outlet she founded and just before her self-immolation security forces searched her home over a case against opposition activists. say said the home was searched on the same day the opposition politician things the authorities wanted to silence in us live in the. but i think she definitely meant her death to be a political act a final political act it was a final attempt to get through to people but she seems to have felt that the classical tools she had a media outlet her facebook page that wasn't enough for her they didn't get her the reaction she wanted. the governor of the region has expressed his condolences 1st live in those death and promised
5:12 pm
a full investigation into its circumstances. meanwhile the bench where she let herself on fire outside a police building has become an improvised memorial to the independent journalist. with the funeral of. is taking place today. a 70 years ago today china took its 1st steps towards an exciting to base the battle of pitted chinese troops against tibet and forces it resulted in china effectively setting up its own administration in the region of debate in subsequent years china officially incorporated tibet into its territory as an autonomous region rights groups have accused the chinese government of repression claims that in recent months reports that thousands of tibetans are being forced into labor camps we'll talk to the leader of the tibetan government in exile about this and the future of the region
5:13 pm
but 1st this report. the himalayan region with its capital home to a largely buddhist population of some 3000000 people. the territory has been under china's sway for centuries but it remained largely independent until the communist takeover in 1950 the chinese army invaded tibet and defeated local forces and. a decade later china crushed an uprising by tibetans opposed to reforms intended to cement beijing's control tibet's spiritual leader the dalai lama fled the region and went into exile beijing later formalized its annexation of tibet doesn't needing it officially as an autonomy administrative region china's current president xi jinping says more must still be done to bring tibet in line with communist party thinking. beijing is planning to spend billions on infrastructure projects including improving rail links between the mountainous
5:14 pm
region and the rest of china. president xi also says beijing must step up its education opportunity but starting with young people he's called for teachers to plant the seeds of love for china in the region schools. it's part of what beijing sees as a push to rein in separatism approach about activists like the dalai lama calling a cultural genocide. we're now joined by love saying thank the president of the central tibet and administration and political success that to his holiness the dalai lama off to bed with the same guy welcome what does the anniversary maintain you personally someone who's never been to tibet. it means then unification of china but illegal and of violent occupation of tibet it got into chinese militar archive proved a month of march $1000.00 troop to 9 to auk 219-6087.
5:15 pm
to read in school kilt and in a 98 percent of masters anonymous were destroyed 99 percent among the nuns were destroyed so yes it means to us then us imminent destruction illegal occupation and violent to all of the threat people chinese president xi jinping recently called for efforts to ensure ensuring pace and stability and to improve people's lives in tibet what do you make of this. i think like shipping the tennis shoes that most of them have said also to bed is the palm we take over then we go up to 5 fingers from . sikkim and. so and change every incentive said that stability and so you know security of china is dependent on stability and security of threat so for china tibet is very very important it's 2500000 square
5:16 pm
kilometers of lands and bigger threats than europe so lots of mineral resources so when one or any of this peace it means assimilation of threatens when it's in a stability which means the oppression of the tibetan people control tibet that's what he wants chinese officials would point towards tibet literacy rising from around 5 percent to 95 percent and there is also being major investment in infrastructure schools and hospitals have these changes benefit had to better. well in exile for example in exile refugee community to literacy that is 94 percent so we're doing better than that right so all the infrastructure like in your shots trimble so you should that really realign brings more chinese to tibet and takes more natural resources from tibet to china simulate the route connecting mostly going to our natural resources or also brings more troops more chinese to the
5:17 pm
distance and as simulation drives so yes to talk about development the question is who benefits and primarily chinese people benefit development projects in tibet you are the elected tibetans later but you are in exile help difficult is it for you to fight for your cause. it is difficult because you are in exile you know and then whatever happens out of the world affects you including the american president election or change in prime and its japan or any country in europe but you do the best you can to impact the wards and so far for the last 60 years we have still standing on her feet don't react still you know pursuing nonviolence as our principle and genuine autonomy as the goal so we are still. the lobsang sangay president of the central tibet administration thanks for your time thank you very much and let's turn now to some of the other stories making news around the world.

5:19 pm
a sharp drop in the use of coal and have huge implications for all sectors that still needs the approval of e.u. member states. or the winners of the prestigious nobel prize in chemistry have been announced in stockholm this year the prize goes to jointly to jennifer dude now from the u.s. and french scientist emanuel shop on tape for the development of a method for genome editing the technology is already contributing to new therapies against cancer and could help inherited diseases or they w. visited shop on say in the lab a couple of years back to find all about where. it was a grain breaking discovery 8 years ago emanuel sharp together with jennifer did not find a way to rewrite the code of life or d.n.e. neither microbiology have been recognized for their break 3 with the nobel chemistry price. yeah i feel extremely new.
5:20 pm
to receive these ideas from cognition and. from sweden he sees the green discovery had to be one of the years. of cease school to reach. the 2 scientists figured bacteria defend themselves against invading viruses in the process they discovered that this natural mechanism can be used as a tool to modify d.n.e. . the result was the crisper cast in genomes that. a simple quick and precise tool to change the genome. here's how it works the sensors are actually a protein which is given a kind of search term for example e.g. seen. in this simplified model our d.n.a. is made up of lots of different combinations of codes like these this says or
5:21 pm
protein stands a copy of the d.n.a. and when it's found the search word says are activated and they cut the section i. then a different section of d.n.a. can be inserted. what i think this is what is the most interesting and fascinating about this discovery is that you you dig into the nature and you try to understand that try to make an isms of life and you and decipher and make an ism that you can really use and harness for the purpose of. the genome says are already being used by plant researchers to create a higher yielding strain of corn as well as mushrooms that stay fresh for longer. a non allergenic peanuts. the discovery has sparked heated ethical debates about the manipulation of nature. but there is no direct about its careful attention in the
5:22 pm
future it could also be harnessed to treat cancer or other genetic diseases. well for more on this i'm joined by les or break from the w. science so some more about this is when is was this a surprise this time it was no surprise to be honest normally it always is but this time it wasn't but many have been waiting for this even though the findings were only published 8 years ago which is nothing i mean normally it takes decades for scientists to be awarded the nobel prize so it wasn't really it was really kind of noble thing for the nobel prize committee here but up on cheers and did not findings have been so grown breaking and so widely used already that it's i guess kind of fair that they deserve that they get the medal for this right now you know so i mean that's a great symbol because they're the 1st 2 women to get the prize together yeah there are many cutting edge possibilities here as well but genome everything technology is controversy yes definitely it is especially as they're worked up on tos and do
5:23 pm
nice work is being used by other scientists as well there's been this case 2 years ago where a chinese researcher. edited the genome of 2 human embryos which yeah it was kind of an incredible thing to happen and also he was then and meantime he was sentenced to 3 years in prison for illegal medical practices. and of course this started a huge debate in the scientific world i mean scientists were wondering how far can we actually go when we added the human genome to reeve really want designer babies where is the use where are the possibilities but where are the dangers as well. now there are groups that develop guidelines for their use for the ethical use of chris burke has 9. scene editing says there's. we have to see but still as we heard that
5:24 pm
report there is no doubt that this is really useful and a really powerful tool so it deserves the prize definitely incredible there are breath from d.w. scientists thanks so much less to the sport now and germany's national football team faced turkey in a friendly match in cologne but had today in preparation for a pair of competitive fixtures over the coming week with the euros we should yield to next year coach needs time to focus on his squad that amid a global pandemic and yet another off eld scandal at the german f.a. to contend with that's easier said than done no sellout crowd for this clash as only 300 spectators are allowed in so watch germany take on turkey in cologne with the prevention of coronavirus outbreaks more important than the result germany coach you love confirmed then i will miss this friendly match through illness you had to give stone. and hugh yesterday i had flu like symptoms this is
