resistant he has worked with this reddish metal since he was 8 years old and still loves the to this day but. it is a suppleness of the metal and the possibility of always creating something new and beautiful with your own with your other work or for a longer personal him or own it produces high quality parts that almost double as works of art relying on the centuries old methods of coppersmith here in santana stasia near naples with milling hammering and burning it takes 6 to 7 hours to finish one of these parts. if you buy a copper pot like this it would last 2 or 3 years and there is no waste it is the most ecological part in the world fortunately traditional artisans like us are gradually disappeared like. because many such businesses lack young employees. yet their craftsmanship is essential for other professions michelin star chef

plane . this is the daily news the live from berlin the long awaited european union u.k. trade deal is done but just what's in it the new meters say it's fair and balanced the british prime minister calls it a small christmas present problem porter takes a closer look at her tail lights inside also coming up on the show. the city that pledged to abolish its police protesters called for the abolition of the police department and media outlets after the killing of george floyd 6 months ago but what happened to those demands are a quarter returns to minneapolis to find out. how to determine that president frank

foster steinmeier says there is a light at the end of the tunnel was long but he had to say about the coronavirus pendennis his traditional christmas address. plus a socially distant distance to christmas eve mass in the brown pope francis marks the day with a service in the vatican conforming to clone a virus $10.00 a day. and clay richardson welcome to the show well it contains hundreds of pages of detail and has emerged after months of negotiation the e.u. u.k. trade deal is now complete but ends months of uncertainty and its implementation will mark a big changes the u.k. and e.u. will form 2 separate markets and free movement between the 2 will come to an end

a reporter will tell me what the major points of the deal are in just a moment but 1st this report on the day the deal was done. just days before the january 1st deadline britain is set to leave the european union with a trade deal after months of wrangling the 2 sides finally agreed to the terms on which the e.u. would be allowed to continue fishing in british waters the last piece of the puzzle to fall into place before the deal could be announced both sides are selling the agreement as the best deal for their positions british prime minister boris johnson said it would benefit greatly part of the u.k. a deal that would protect jobs across this country. goods u.k. goods and components to be sold without tariffs and without coaches in the e.u. market a deal which will if anything allow our companies and our exporters to do even more business with our european friends over in brussels the e.u.

chief said it was time to look to the future. we will continue trading with the u.k. in all areas of mutual interest for example in the field of climate change and that's the security and transport to get there we still need schieffer more than we do apart with the president the deal needs the approval of both the british parliament and the e.u.'s 27 member states. ambassadors from each countries will meet on christmas day to start reviewing the deal the british parliament will debate and vote on the deal on december 30th. ditto your reporter joel dora has been looking at the details of the deal and he joins me now in the studio for more joel is it fair to say there are any winners in this agreement well this is a divorce agreement so it was always going to be slightly painful for both sides and both sides have to make compromises to avoid the chaos of a no deal brags that on january 1 we can have

a look now what is in some of this more than 2000 pages of of an agreement so firstly and most importantly there will be no tariffs on goods traded between the u.k. and the european union so german cars will not get more expensive in the u.k. and vice versa fishing rights was a major barrier the e.u. has agreed to give up only a quarter of the fish that it catches in british waters and the u.k. fishing industry is unhappy about this outcome there's no role seen for the european court of justice which was a major issue for the u.k. and instead disputes will be settled by an independent panel and will be an end to the freedom of movement of people between britain and the e.u. with new conditions for residency in travelers will face restrictions. come january 1 citizens from both sides of the channel are going to have just 90 days of travelling in the other its territory before they can have to start applying for visas and so forth and these negotiations are really came down to the wire what would you say are some of the major downsides of the deal we just because we have

a deal doesn't mean there won't be disruptions and in fact british exporters face major hurdles now trying to get their goods into europe that is going to be new paperwork new procedures possible border checks and business groups in the u.k. say that they are not prepared for this also financial services are not included in this deal that's going to be a huge issue for the u.k.'s very big financial services sector they face uncertainty professional qualifications will no longer be automatically. by countries on both sides so doctors engineers nurses they're going to have to get their qualifications checked by each individual government and also here's one that's really provoked outrage on social media the u.k. is withdrawing from the erasmus program this is the study program that allows university students to easily go and study across the channel that's going to end now particularly for the u.k. students and many people are tweeting out saying how sad they are because this was really the foundation of many of the personal relationships and the start of their

careers and this is where briggs it's going to really be felt in the end to those posts of connections the ability to just go and move and study those cultural connections between the u.k. and the european union are slowly going to wither away right and what sort of official reaction have we seen to this agreement well generally there's been a sigh of relief european union leaders have been saying that this is a generally good deal and that's important because all governments from all 27 member states are going to have to sign off on this deal before the end of the year here in germany chancellor angela merkel said that the deal was a good outcome here's what she said with the agreement we are laying the foundation for a new chapter in our relations even from outside the european union the united kingdom will continue to be an important player for german important partners for germany and the e.u. now her cabinet is due to meet on monday which is when they might sign off on this deal the same thing has to happen in capitals across europe and in the u.k.'s parliament now the coming days are going to be full of more surprises as people

poor through these 2000 pages and they find out what was agreed and what was left out all right d w reporter told all right thank you very much for that update. and let's take a look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world the 1st case of the new coronavirus variant of spreading rapidly in the u.k. has now been identified here in germany in fact a person flew into frankfurt airport from london 5 days ago and fell ill at a home in. southwestern germany. meanwhile austria has reopened its new lifts for christmas winter sports are underway at $400.00 alpine locations just like the imminent start of a 3rd national walk down the government argues that as an outdoor sport skiing is safe under strict conditions mountain restaurants will remain closed. syria's state news agency has reported an israeli missile attack in the province of hama the rockets apparently targeted syrian military positions and syrian air

defenses attempted to repel the attack israel has carried out over 30 air show air strikes across syria this year. to end police racism was one of the rallying cries of the black lives matter movement in the united states this year it gained traction after police officers killed the african-american man george floyd during an arrest in the city of minneapolis his death was followed by protests calling for the police to be abolished correspondent stuff and simon's was in minneapolis then when those protests began and in our next report he returns to the city to find out what became of those demands. i made apple is may 28th the 3rd precinct building of the minneapolis police department said the blaze during protests against the death of george floyd in police custody . the burning police station becomes a symbol for the protesters fury for their demands for an end of police racism and

patellar to. abandoned boarded up and secure with cement barriers precinct 3 still a symbol now signifying the city's struggle to make the changes the protesters demanding to the local police department and how police accused them. volunteers from their god came up and prepared to patrol the neighborhood then the 9th ward of minneapolis where george floyd done their christian and local level and growing in number we just thank you for your blessing to watch over us as we walk the streets when the group recently recognized and supported by the city is filling the gap created by the collapse of trust between police and the black community with police patrols largely absent from this part of town they have taken on the task of proactively protecting the community from rising crime. we want to have selected police or not community who knows who live in our community who look like a community and then there'd be a better place where like how we can read talk to him and how we communicate to

each other minneapolis police recognize the need for urgent and fundamental change says deputy chief eric force he sees new recruiting strategies this critical for any real progress one of the best things you can you can have as a department that's as reflective of your community as you can get it especially people from the community and that's really what we're pushing but words are not enough so as they've beaking a local activist with a group called communities against police brutality there's been talk of reform there's been some radical talk from the city council but there has been virtually no action whatsoever and we're not seeing a lot of initiative for action from the city council the mayor the police chief after hours of patrolling the neighborhood the government decided to go home they'll be back tomorrow night and tonight after that. well chairman
