election day john the commercial capital is a wash with billboards of the sitting president and his son and what he promised not to run for a 3rd term but then he's chosen successor died and he changed his mind. several dozen people have been killed in protests against the president since august and the opposition parties are calling for a boycott and acts of civil disobedience they say other than what the president is mile ating the constitution by seeking a 3rd term and they say this election is nothing more than a farce. by usually has been at the forefront of these protests with his friends he's preparing to take to the streets hooping there is still a way to prevent the elections from taking place. on the people

12:20 am
we leave in the morning that we are lucky if we return home in the evening. shortly after his interview we contradict his friends tell us he's been arrested the number of have nots is growing rapidly in ivory coast almost half of the population tries to cope below the poverty line yet here in the suburbs of abidjan there is still support for the current president people simply refer to as. i like the fact that with him there is peace i don't want another war i only want peace. out of. the youth here i mobilize as one person thanks to the people can drive on these terrorists. and most people simply want the election to be over with violence under a coup in an observed the situation from a neutral perspective he says yet he too is concerned to meet me in his office. and
12:21 am
fear is the problem for development since. i don't know how many people will agree to talk to you more and more there is a kind of mark on some every and that takes its toll. intellectuals journalists people who are free like me are speaking out less and less because they are afraid but unfortunately a democracy can't be built on fear. in democracy. ivorians long for a new start and reconciliation but with the volatility there is now the country might go back to the very beginning of its unresolved problems. but if i reports and joins us hello funny so the opposition is calling for boy caught and civil disobedience how call this play out and what do they hope to
12:22 am
achieve. what they're hoping to achieve in haiti ever since in fact president ouattara said that he's running again for a 3rd term and he had elative this august for the opposition so what they want to prevent this election from taking place and that's pretty much what they're campaigning on with actually participating in the electoral process because as we've also seen in the report they say we want to boycott the election be a calling on people on our supporters on people to express acts of civil disobedience not what could that mean acts of civil disobedience could mean you're not going to work you're staying at home but of course it could be also understood as a way of taking to the streets in any form or way and that's exactly in fact here the risk the element of race that nobody actually really knows all the tension that's already been on the streets including clashes since august including many people injured and several dozen people have been killed in these violent clashes with the
12:23 am
ivorian security forces nobody really knows how that is going to ask allayed food the just ahead of the elections tomorrow and pools of the other actions as well. now the opposition clearly has issues with president ouattara but how much public supports does he have out there. this is really difficult to tell because simply there is no statistic just how many people are supporting president ouattara then we look at the electoral numbers when we look at the fact that around 40 percent so far have picked up their electorate a cause that is 40 percent of all of those people who are actually a liberal to cast a ballot tomorrow that's not a big number but then again some people don't pick up the calls because it's just too complicated it's a timely manner that they do not want to pick it up many others again i've spoken to say he don't care about this election because to them it's a farce and again others that we have spoken to who may not be john say they say ok
12:24 am
it is a controversial election but you want to make sure that president ouattara stays in the office because at least for the past 10 years there hasn't been any civil war there hasn't been any war any conflict on the scale that they have seen unfold in 200220122 previous civil wars and the. know how i'm going on the hot spots of ask those songs yes all the possible return to the violence that killed thousands of people that was in 20102011 how likely is that. unfortunately at this point already various rule books have been set up here in i'll be john into commercial capital and in the political capital in the capital of ivory coast right now as we're speaking about clashes between security forces and people who are supporting the opposition parties people while trying to defend their own communities they say against the forces of ivory coast and who are saying
12:25 am
we want to prevent this election from taking place so unfortunately it's not a question anymore about how likely violence is going to play out how likely it is that violence takes place it is already happening addy and the question is only just how much this is going to ask the late as this election is going to take place to morrow according to president ouattara it is going to take place tomorrow hopefully things return to calm a fine if i shall do you know if your correspondent thanks for your time over 19 how seriously affected our way of life but it hasn't been all doom and gloom to young musicians across africa or youngsters have shifted to social media a musician's have topped the trend by streaming live concerts young zimbabwean jazz musician. is making waves with his band and that's now how to break through correspondent through been shown to be

expecting unrest or are they just merely covering their bases in the event of well clearly i mean they want to play safe and to a certain degree that might be understandable i came to the country at the end of the ninety's when bill clinton was still president and i have to say i have not seen the country that divided as we've seen a dr ever during those 20 plus years by the way i mean i covered the president make and also some hundreds that we saw earlier this year from all over the place and i've seen the results from the looting for example also that we saw in new york because so it is clearly a possibility that there might be some unrest on tuesday and then by the way i did talk to a lady at a gas station recently in south jersey and she was saying that she's just hoping the election to be done and over was so that we can go back to normal also meaning that the pen demick will be gone by then so well the political spectrum it is
12:33 am
a pretty wild in those days and a lot of things seem to be possible in the night from tuesday to wednesday. we certainly all want things to go back to normal that's certainly true now markets also had a tough week ends do you think this is in any way perhaps related to the uncertainty of the upcoming elections. i would say saw him interesting that enough usually the a trading days before an election are at least historically good days so that is clearly not the case in this year blue chips just in this past week were down by a volatile and 6 and a half percent oil prices for the month of october lost a 10 percent and i would say yes investors are just i'm shying the risk and they want to have political a collaborative but the sell off was not only because of the upcoming elections we also ahead new. record cases just yesterday here in the united states on top of it

we have earnings from big tech companies that looked pretty good at a 1st glance but there were some tiny little mistakes but the misses in those numbers that's why stocks like amazon apple or facebook sold off by a good 5 to 6 percent in the friday's session alone but overall yes i would say there is a high degree of uncertainty and nobody can tell for sure if we will have a clear victor on a wednesday and that does make investors nervous at this point. thank you. for us. europe's largest economies rebounded sharply from dramatic 2nd quarter downturns but that progress is now threatened by a new round of locked out its figures released thursday showing germany with growth of 8.2 percent in the 3rd quarter the french economy expanded by 18 per cent good

affected by the pandemic as the passenger aviation sector governments around the world have tried propping up their flag carriers with billions in aid based on the figures airlines like air france have now posted they're going to continue to need more. the northern hemisphere summer months and normally the best time of year for airline revenues for this year has been richard from scale and carried almost 70 percent fewer passengers then in august coronavirus travel restrictions began to tighten again. during the 3rd quarter the french dutch airline sales collapsed by 2 thirds leaving at nursing a loss of over a 1000000000 euros the competition didn't fare any better between july and september british airways parent g piled up an operating loss of 1300000000 japan's flag carrier japan airlines lost over 3 quarters of a 1000000000 euros during the summer months. times is also struggling its

3rd quarter loss was slightly over 100 quarter 1000000000 euros airlines are all shedding stuff and grounding entire fleet and with no real improvement in sight they're bracing for an especially miserable winter which brings us to our next story that misery from last tons of may yet claim another casualty its in-house flight academy once a steady supply of recruits for the flight deck of the training center is future it now hangs in the balance. soaring frees a bird over a picturesque scenery lucas hiram has often looked at these images of the last ounce of pilot training program in the us. technically the 22 year old should be sitting in the cockpit himself right now a year ago he began following his dream of becoming a pilot at lufthansa as european flight academy and braman. but instead of flying a plane he's packing moving boxes with his girlfriend in march last chance to
12:38 am
suspend the training program around 700 young people are now in limbo. he says ok in my 1st they said the program would continue in may then in september then in january next year is the end of this because the outlook is so uncertain i've run out of time we have to give up this apartment as we can't pay the rent anymore. for us this means that this chapter for us in braman where i was in flight training and my girlfriend was studying that chapter is closed for now as i've been at this. germany's largest airline is on life support because of the coronavirus pandemic and have to be rescued by a 9000000000 euro bailout package. at least half of the jets are still grounded. head of the of tons of flight school is stefan cannon scheibe he says the airline already has a surplus of 1000 pilots. in the under board is that if we haven't got our offer and we're quite open with the students about this is that the
12:39 am
outlook for future pilots is very very bad right there of 2 to the pandemic the economic situation of love town says very bad every month we're losing $500000000.00 euros and it's our responsibility to tell the students this very openly and honestly. the flight students were advised to hold their training otherwise they would owe 80000 euros after graduation without the usual job guarantee. lucas's father is speechless at how things have gone he's been a lot on suppliers himself for 32 years. not a card it's almost like coercion so you're saying if i stop scientist terminations then everything is fine. but if i really want to fulfill my dreams then this company wants a pile of money from me i don't like it's unfair. regardless lucas is determined to realize his dream job even if right now he's not sure how to do it. say something to us like if you start training again you'll
12:40 am
be the ones we take or at least that our test scores will be recognized and. but this guarantee has not materialized the coronavirus pandemic has dashed another set of dreams the dream of flying for these student pilots. now given all the troubles in the aviation sector it may be a strange time to open a new airport but the opening of berlin brandenburg international airport is already 90 years late it's finally happening on saturday the project was initially estimated to cost $1700000000.00 euros but the final bill is over 3 times that amount to be our airport was designed for $27000000.00 visitors but with a grand opening in the middle of the global pandemic it's estimated the new airport will operate at only 20 percent capacity next month. and finally the pandemic has cast a shadow over this year's halloween party in copenhagen amusement park the location

a teacher i think he would be on the side of helping young musicians and composers to find their own way their own path through music and this is exactly what the beautiful is helping me to do. using his piano mixes electronic sounds tailored to his specific me. so what i'm doing here is mainly adding the something electronic to the acoustic sound of the piano and where i'm doing this is i have the life sound coming through the microphones into my system and the effect sound is going out over here into my loudspeaker and that's the idea behind it that i can add to the acoustic and the electronic sound in the here in the concert hall and there is no amplification going on in the piano. the concert at the berlin

philharmonic to yack and his own song will take any musical journey through time the selection of works seems to perfectly captured the prevailing mood it's one of the last concerts in germany. before own venues are shut down for november. if you will just keep making music i'm always composing and i don't need a concert for that i'm satisfied we just play in my shop judio. mindful of the music. i'm moving for knowing and hopefully. will return to the stage before too long thank you. and good to see that optimism there well still waiting for the curtain to go up is the brand new berlin brandenburg international airport and needless to say since the original opening was postponed way back in the summer of 2012 it's become

a bit of a running joke that it will at the building will already be out of date by the time it finally opens for business so let's hope that it really is for real this coming weekend because architects surely it looks like it can have at least reasonable staying power. this is it the 33000 square meters of glass for sard 9000 tons of steel and 160000 cubic meters of concrete that make up the main terminal of the new berlin brandenburg. the building was finished 9 years ago but technical problems including with safety systems the opening architecture critic in nicholas of burnout has come to check the building out that they wanted to make an airport that fits into the plan some plateau of the town to reach and they also wanted to make an airport that is grounded not so dramatic in terms of
