a bond sales organized by goldman sachs and able to associates a former malaysian prime minister razak to steal billions of dollars from the one the m.t.d. fund that was supposed to support malaysia's economic growth so what are we to make of all of this let's leave financial correspondent yes cos he's at goldman sachs of global headquarters in new york hi ends just how badly has this scandal affected goldman sachs its reputation. in general it's a huge and costly scandal already in july goldman agreed to pay $2.00 and a half $1000000000.00 to the government of malaysia so now we have another almost $3000000000.00 on top of that interestingly enough the stock actually did trade to the upside on thursday and there's a good reason for that because it was not goldman the parent company pleading
11:19 pm
guilty but it was this of sideris from malaysia and that means that goldman itself probably gets away was no criminal charges and that is important because that way goldman will be able to still to do business with some big institutional clients those clients might not have been allowed to do business with goldman if the parent company actually would have to plead guilty itself still in that regard it is a bit of a relief of at least for the parent company goldman sachs for sure and that might explain as well why we're not feeling too much market reaction to this story when our investor i think 5 in about today though yes. well we've seen a huge wave of earnings coming out all week long and that was especially also true for this thursday session coca-cola for example even if revenue dropped in comparison to last year's quarter but their earnings came in better than expected

11:32 pm
condé has been in power since 2010 instead of. week all of guinea chose the union of democratic forces of guinea that's what guinea wants if the us is not elected guinea will not be calm. but guinea is already far from calm. the current bout of violence started the day after the election when opposition candidate below declared himself the winner of the ballot before the release of official results. i am like tourists and this election in the 1st round was. but it was too soon to celebrate over the last few days the election commission has made official results available as they come in from constituencies and so far they are not confirming the victory that d.l.
11:33 pm
all claim to was his. the man in the lead is alpha condé the man whose lead guinea for the past 10 years. the opposition is crying foul and has been venting their anger on the streets with deadly consequences says gainey security minister. or cook or are going to be full bodies in conakry full bodies of gunshot victims in the morgues of dunker and it must be in hospitals one death from a stab wound deaths from firearms in. addition to. those weren't the only victims of guinea's post-election violence and there are fears they will be more. on wednesday night d.l. all called in his supporters to continue their fight in a twitter video posted from home. you were already fighting heroically in conakry and across the country despite savage repression and despite arrests and intimidation this fight is heroic and it will in ever to be victorious.
11:34 pm
the country now awaits the final results of the election but by the looks of the last few days it's unlikely they'll resolve the tension. let's go over to africa correspondent frank moloney he is in a cost hi fred it's good to see you is some kind of a power sharing compromise pools of all in guinea i say this because when we've had similar instances in other parts the continent that's what it's come down to is it possible in guinea. chris you know the. main rival is in guinea that is the comment president and. their opposition. to this is this time there that actually there are contests. in the last 2 times there have been nothing like these talking about. so this time no one knows where
11:35 pm
the go up to but what we know is that the incumbent president has said that in case he wins the election he's willing to talk with the opposition ok the result is still in contention but what they any independent election observers fred and and what have they said. so far the african union because that's the regional book of west africa they have already declared that the voting process was transplanted something that has been disputed by the opposition in the. and you have to know that the opposition. himself has declared a winner even before the electoral commission announces the results so i dis moment though because of us said the election process was transpired but the people
11:36 pm
in guinea contest narrative. ok fred just just coming back to these 2 men contending for this presidency and as you write so you told us it's the 3rd time they're having a go at it. they've both got profiles in guinea. the incumbent president alpha condé is he more old then and now the old man team to power. well that seems to be depart on especially in the west africa. region where current or you see what is happening in the course they have had to change the constitution so that the incumbent president can run for. them the same thing happens in guinea where he has actually been in power for one or 2 times for 10 years he is has forced to change the constitution so that he can run for another
11:37 pm
time but people have to know that this guy cannot be in the same basket as other people who have been in power for 2 decades even for decades has just been in power for all of 2 times 10 years but then the change of the constitution it's of raises questions about his motives and he's also is very questionable he's 82 years almost. afraid what about his main challenger at delhi india he is no new come achieve political power is he. yes he's very very you know me has occupied several minutes so your poised and president. that he's some couple of years ago he has been also the prime minister he's very a very experienced politician and he has also must have support from from the
11:38 pm
community which is really one of the biggest. it's a new group in so he has most of support he has experience but of course he's facing a very strong incumbent president afraid when can we expect the final official results from this election. yet the final fisher results are expected in 8 days that means that after the provision or results have been announced then the candidates have at least 8 days to file a petition in supreme court just in case they have they have told us they placed in there and then the posters on the call it would declare the final results but if any candidate gets below 50 then there will be a 2nd a 2nd run which is should do it on 24th of november right that's in lagos for us
11:39 pm

english countryside that surrounds him. welcome. culture streaming services are burning up the historical series seem to be particularly popular now netflix is launching its 1st german historical series barbarians which takes place in na in a day when the romans occupied almost half of europe so the genetic tribes are trying to stop the rocket part b. of a half what's the potential for epic battles love and hate but trail and loyalty. so i mean there's roman empire at the height of its power half of it is under. roman general virus is governor of the northern provinces at his side. the leader of a division of german manik troops serving the romans. returning

with roman forces minister meets his father a tribal chief again as a child i mean yes was taken as a hostage to rome where he became a roman citizen would come on the tightness. in. my 4. crisis act and now on scope sees parallels with the situation of refugees today. and feel i think refugees have to struggle with the same things that armenia struggled with not knowing how to fit in like where do i belong do i belong. how much of my original culture can i retain. and how much is it accepted in the new culture and so on. this story is told entirely from the perspective of the geminid tribes they resent the high tribute payments demanded by the romans the conflict is given an extra edge due to
11:47 pm
the language barrier the moment speaking latin. oh mother but i was there no known producer any sort of. because of the fact that. there were no one up call sounds like it's a touch of culture as they don't understand each other we use this to develop the plot a few characters he speak both languages suddenly have much more power and control over the situation. there are misunderstandings. it was a key moment when we decided to incorporate this into the narrative. in china in the sort of start. adding to armenia says internal conflict he is also the foster child of roman general virus an entirely fictional element. at the t.p. . people before the grand old asked. me for

a cup of tea leaves. full good. judgment for the. room and for barbarians at the occupying forces become increasingly. many a 3 then leads the romans into an ambush although the outcome of the battle is a matter of historical record barbarians keeps the tension going until the gooey end. of. barbarians netflix kind of a my colleague joins me now. i read high expectations for production because other productions are being very good dark. and a 6 part series does have a lot going for it. david and goliath story set in the based on historical fact it was spectacularly shot not in the forests have to say
11:49 pm
but actually on location in hungary it should appeal to fans of shows like vikings and the last kingdom and there's no reason why it shouldn't do very well indeed and based on an interesting chapter of german history what do we know about the real large amount of tribes well that's an interesting exhibition in at the james. which deals with misconceptions about them the german it tribes were actually ethnically quite diverse. they were not barbarians but fairly advanced agricultural communities what we knew about them before the initial stories written by the romans and then further romanticized by artists. particularly around the time of the foundation of the 1st german i mean yes then becomes herman the german
11:50 pm
a massive monument is built to him in the toy to forest 800 years after the battle so was this a search for a sort of national identity battle let's fight but hermann is not ideally karst as the proton germany was no gun marnia he wasn't a unifier of germany that's the myth the were in all more than 50 tribes and therefore they were the forefathers of many european nations so not submissive misunderstandings but how historically authentic is this series it's pretty good it even has the roman soldiers speaking latin but it plays loose with facts but i have to say that there are only few verifiable facts here and there's a long tradition of inventing things to fill in the gaps in the knowledge so i think if you don't take it too seriously it won't do you any harm and you might enjoy it and for good and perhaps it'll inspire people to learn more about that
11:51 pm

enemy radiation is invisible. the title of the exhibition in the theme enter into an unbelievably good symbiosis here in this place the questions of heroism resurrection elevation to st e status they really rub up against each other. the phones of the redeemer are reflected in mirrors to peace. the idea of sacrificing one sound for the general period is not ideal still compatible with the age we live in. now before. there is still the concept of the hero right now we're once again talking about who wrote figures in respect to the challenges presented by the coronavirus another invisible danger we face.
