well, ukraine is caught up in a dispute with european football officials over a controversial shirts slogan the ukrainians have been told to remove the phrase glory to the heroes from their euro. 2020 jersey. russia complained about the kit, the governing body wave a ruled ukraine could keep a map that includes crimea. but the slogan, glory to the heroes. a military greeting was deemed to be 2 political watching d. w. nurse, thanks for being with us. the so many portions of love turn out in the world climate, cherry, coffee stores. this is my plan, the way from just one week. how much was can really get we still have time to go. i'm doing all

me. ah ah ah, this is the story of the hotel police dog in paris. ah, during the 2nd world war, when the french capital was occupied by the germans, a jewish architect found refuge here for 4 years. ah. during this time he renovated a large part of the hotel, though no outside or is aware of his presence. mm. his room had no number on the door and wasn't on any me. and he worked exclusively at night.

i but the architect wasn't the only one who owed his life too liberally thought the hotel also saved other jews from persecution. ah, it's discretion earned the liberty stole the name, the hotel of silence. ah, or it's founder, a bully, chummy discretion, and the protection of his guests who ranged from high ranking politicians and government agents to well known celebrities and the artists were paramount. and this remains part of liberty sows identity to this day. what happens within these walls and never leaks out? this cloak of absolute secrecy was a reason why liberty stole was one of the only hotels in paris to escape being seized by the germans during world war 2.

while the nazis invaded the french capital and hitler eventually even order, the city destruction the story of liberty. so is one of solid charity humanity. encourage me. the hotel is located in the 8th, the smoke, and one of paris is fine as district. not far from the shops, at least. i liberally stole 1st, opened its doors in 1925. mm. its founder jimmy aimed to create the ideal luxury hotel the hotel was smaller than my father took the smallest room for us as he had spent a lot on the construction go home for a question. they just pulled out the dresser drawer. and that was my radar. it will

show me people in the sun pierre was born just before the hotel opened. he spent the 1st month of his life on the 1st floor just above the service entrance in one of the few rooms that were finished at the time. as he grew, he learned a lot from his father. like how to quickly and quietly make the right decision at the right time. after the 1st world war ended, for reasons were in the mood to celebrate. the streets were full of life. women became emancipated. for many reasons, the roaring twenties heralded a fresh start. ah, it is used between 919 and 929 or

a time when fashion and culture flourished is from the there were also the years when there were no boundaries between different artistic and domains. q 2 and the fashion world, which experience and even coordinates during this period. ashville o. v. o. tele belief party was named after frederick harvey, the earl of bristol, his travels through europe in the 18th century, made him a symbol of the luxury traveller. excellent people, li, jeremy came from a family of parisian restaurant tours. his parents owned the famous restaurant le birth mode. ah, his appointment at the front during the 1st world war had a strong impact on him and influenced his later decisions regarding his hotel. john a bought this modest building and transformed it into the dog we know today so i

mean that's fine. thank you. cool botany did. in 1925, he had the opportunity to purchase the property on the router for both of us on, on the lake, on which to build his hotel posted on the planet. he demolished the existing building to construct the bridgestone. previous, previously had been the private residence of the count, the custom, a dandy who lived the high life and tara ha, lives in the can call ended was at this location, were equally jeremy built his bristol, it was his life stream. and crowning too small, the song of what i gather though, before the war in 1914, his father had sent him to apprentice at the reception of the hotel oblong in berlin. afterwards he said, it's just, i want my own long one i that's because in the early 1900 twenty's parents did not yet have many luxury hotel.

i the believe stone was located diagonally opposite the a palace and the ministry of the interior. mm long the political heart of paris. this area is still the seat of power today. but over time, the big fashioned labels have also taken up residence on the hood of football, found on a end of the surrounding streets in paris. politics, luxury and culture have always gone hand in hand. me together with his wife, yvonne, who also hailed from a respected family of restaurant tours, eagerly built a hotel which incorporated the latest construction methods. here,

the city's most famous landmark served as a role model. ah, isn't this you did? they decided to build the framework entirely of metal, just like the eiffel tower. coming from that point on a concrete construction, missouri off the table, the conclusion that was good because the national structure can always be torn down, rebuild, or in long, of course we have lots made of concrete copy, modified so easily. consider don't we don't and because he always wanted to make improvements to the, to who it was constantly under construction roy, already taco level key it. it turns out that the bank is willing press that the family had a solid enough backing to support these projects. their previous ones had proven to be good projects, not just beauty projects. they were not only about expanding the hotel, but also about making it more efficient and attractive. and above all,

making the hotel a place that would spend the tested time maybe in times of crisis. a potential c stuff increase in this is what the blue star looks like and its 1st decade or it's our deco de core would soon be mixed with classic 18th century of asian style elements and later replaced entirely or equal li, gemma purchase fine furniture, tapestries even paintings of murphy on planet. nothing was too good for his guests . he had created his parisian hotel avalon. ah, ah, and it's early years the stole did a booming business machine and all on a cable for digital. what shows you have to imagine a world in which people suddenly had access to things they never did before. the

key to those who worked hard to achieve a certain standard of living suddenly had places to nice places to spend to me. so they wanted to go there and kept coming back, especially in paris, and i think that created a certain why did eve, which harshly explains the success of this hotel, which was very large for those days? no more than a day to cut. i go down by aubrey, so as you don't come to the bristol, just to sleep or enjoy the science of paris, you come to feel like you are part of you. sorry you were a artist and you know how is extraordinary, went down to the details or covering everything to the, to the bell. and it's important to incorporate that history when redecoration room, why they cooler with equal. i show your show more, for example, when that room tell the story of josephine baker, who celebrated her 50th stage anniversary at the. yeah, yeah, i would tell luis,

30 home is one of the police. those current residence quietly and inconspicuously, the hotel cat watches, people come and go ah, liberally stole is one of the few hotels which still hands out real room. keith. not key cards. ah, josephine baker stayed here time and again. she spent many happy years in paris from the 1900 twenty's, all the way through to the 1970 the sweet, named after her recalls the years when american tourists descended on paris and drove to the board large crew ships like the more atanya or the queen mary's. they arrived at the ports of la and chapel,

bringing with them lots of spending money and irrepressible love of life. the. they traveled on to the french capital to enjoy pleasures forbidden for them in their homeland. for example, the consumption of alcohol prohibition drove americans to explore the night life of paris. ah, over half a century later, liberally stole dedicated this small swimming pool shaped like a ship to the memory of an american clientele. in the days of the american craze and full guest books ended abruptly in 1929 with the great stock market crashed.

and you think you like to wagner like concrete? the crisis of 929. the great depression which began in the us with last thursday, only reached europe a little later on keys, a poor little p r c. are your opinions. the crisis really began in the early 930. as a result, many of these rich clients were now virtually bankruptcy. therefore, far fewer come to europe, new young man. yeah, one thing entries the band and the gold standard and currencies became devalued for european countries that many millions of unemployed a poorly p o p s c. c. didn't show now from been on liberally. those rooms remained empty in the times of plenty were over, at least for a while. and that was a problem for jimmy, who had made major investments in the hotel just before the economic crisis began.

i there was no one around to admire the hotel stylish new make over its luxurious lounges, remained empty. and he successfully completed the expansion of the aid for each boasting 300 square meters of space. they faced onto the biggest inner courtyard in paris. here in this greenaway says with 20 different species of birds, his guests were to relax and enjoy some respite and tough time. but now people had big worries. anti bully jammy was becoming increasingly bitter because he feared he'd be forced to give up his dream. while he constantly kept expanding the hotel during the boon years now, he was saddled with a mountain of debt. he could no longer afford to complete the maysonet. he'd plan

to build for his family on the 7th and 8th floors. he felt like a failure. as a business man and a father for these all the father, 10 children, but didn't really take care of them there because he was la prestone simone. it was mamma who raised us, sit down. he was a father, but more of a business man than a family that could do for me. during the great depression, when his hotel attracted few guests people, li, jeremy worked on the many small, detailed invention and special feature which would eventually save liberty stole sorenson liberty. stone was the 1st hotel in paris to have combined heating and air conditioning units. but he believed jammy, his most famous invention was the magnifying mirror. your book because there are

many examples that show he was a visionary. does she pick those little magnifying mirrors in the bathrooms, which are now standard fixtures in every hotel around the world? now they're completely normal, but they were invented by people. each man, though no one knows that if he patented them, he'd have become a billionaire. unfortunately, he didn't do that at the time, but that gives you an idea of the kind of hotel he was full of ideas creative to, to see pretty jamaica he did a korea and it was also a poly german idea to create an air raid shelter here to create a place where people could take refuge yet, once again, a refuge within a refuge, just in case something really dramatic happened in paris. the lean years dragged on, still people lead at a wealth of contacts, bankers, restaurant tours and politicians who helped keep him afloat at

a time when many hotels were going under me. ironically it was only when german troops rushed in and seized paris in 1940. that the tide turned for equally jeremy and liberally took as the germans began to take control of the city and requisition. and so tell people he had to quickly come up with a plan to save his establishment. will they keep the nazis requisitions small, medium large hotels? according to the here are key of the troops who were to be large there, whether they were officers or lacking cinemas were reserved for them. and for dells too. and all the signage was in germany. it on me and roughly the same spot where the hotel bar now sand people each am

a build his famous air raid shelter it with his 8th and the whole no other hotel could offer its guests such a sense of security. me as germany had not yet declared war on the united states. people, the jam a took a big gamble attribute. i think he realized very quickly that history was sealing the face of paris and with that of his business. and of course, he had this famous air raid shelter. so he went to see the american ambassador in paris. believe i asked him to tell all his compatriots, or at least with his diplomats in paris that they should come and stay here. so that this place would remain almost neutral as far as that was possible at the time . well, it was, you stick, it shows keep wilker told any book. so american diplomat settled in that liberal is done. although the embassy had previously dealt with the crayon,

the americans were swayed by the air raid shelter, as well as the fact that people eat, let the embassy staff have the rooms for free. that proof to be another clever move on his part. after american ambassador william berlin and his entourage moved in liberty stole was not only protected from being seized by the germans. it was also fully booked for the 1st time and years. mm. the hotel was the site of secret political meetings, as well as a place where ordinary visitors from around the world could still find accommodation and war time. because my father had this agreement with the american ambassador, it was considered to be a us hotel. as a result, it was never close. i may say it was open to parisians. were ordered to every body from me. in spite of all the restrictions,

the police stole was flourishing again. the only hotel in the city to do so many jewish citizens were already fleeing from the nazis. for some of them liberally stole became a place of refuge. together with her aid organization and morgan, the daughter of famous american banker, j. p. morgan arranged the lodgings at the hotel for numerous jews from 1940 to 41. they were later evacuated to the u. s. but equally john may also secretly stowed away another jewish citizen. his name was leo. lemme official. the jew he hid was his architect, monsieur, mom, victor. she created the new restaurant that still exists today. mon mom, lived in room one o 6 for the entire duration of the wall. 8 years you sent his family, his children to switzerland. since he was the only one in his family who stayed in

paris, come up here, my father put him up and paid in full time employee. apprentice me. the the elevators wrought iron grill is the work of leo left. mom, as are many other features still in existence at the store today. me for a full 4 years learn more, lived in hiding here. and during this time he renovated a large part of the hotel and he was an extraordinary man. even today you can't walk through this hotel without mentioning him about it. though let them all himself add to keep his wanderings here to a minimum. i

may need it. good dog. the funniest thing is that he kept on working for the bristol just at night. so he walked through the hallways at night. he designed the wrought iron grill on the elevator. during this time i left. at the end of the more he left the hotel as a free man leave me. i left my renovated 50 rooms during his years at liberty stall, shit, and apparently he was a man who could walk into an existing room and in the blink of an eye, you just what could be done to make it even more pleasant? said was keep his rock of prison right under

the noses of the german occupiers and other guests. he bravely and secretly supervised the renovation from his hotel room. book back little sash connect then no one was to know he was there. because little indiscretions are quickly committed. people are only human after all. but monsieur may even made his room number disappear, entirely fridge that in people's minds. this room didn't even exist. room one or 6, you know, there's room one or 5, but 16 doesn't exist. so it's like we missed or something to, but it's not known. what happened to lay or left mom after the war and the believe jimmy never breathed a word about this incredible story. pos good to have luck. and i think that for him to have taken the risk because it was a risk for which misuse could have paid a heavy price. they must have been more than casual acquaintances. cut them over

time, they became quite close flush. yeti cup actually got cases like this of french people who saved other french juvie call this micro history by the new coil to our to but i think these little stories because this hotel i history and to manage the new swap, a new mentee muslim and i think we also have a need to show that such cases a solidarity exist 15 amanda city that he, that this hotel have demands long enough am yeah, this will be on the the when the united states entered the war in december 1941. the situation changed yet again for equally jammy and his hotel to the police stone, which had previously been neutral territory now catered to the german embassies gas

. so after the war, he was accused of collaborating with the nazis as he was under the command of the chief of protocol, of the german embassy in paris fits bordeaux to shift until 11 for a time. he had to work together with his chief of protocol from the german embassy in paris, who was visibly very hot, long you have been in contact with a police major. unfortunately, observe its been catch onto that right away, which you can understand at such an overwhelming time. what the book at the i can only imagine that this kind of interaction in a hotel that was supposedly a hotel for diplomats neutral protected choir would raise lots and lots of questions. she did book a book quickly, but afterwards it turned out the person in question was a double agent. i believe in sub did he know bordeaux with a german who spied for the french?

the police germane kept his silence. even though he could have cleared his name, his discretion applied to everyone. human dubois, simon, the one in the hotel during the war. does he take risks as associated with personalities like coco chanel lived there for 30 years? it's similar with other hotels and i was always salvador dali to my knowledge. the bristol never used art is intellectuals or painters easy to draw attention to itself. nothing ever says neither talk of collaborate, nor will you quit stories about hidden people. when i see you talked to crit, maybe because it's such a discreet place, up as city i and those who are very discreet lead,

no traces behind me. ah, at the end of the 2nd world war, drew closer, origins, longed for peace. ah me. and on august 25th, 1944. their wish was granted with the liberation of paris. by this time even need, jeremy had skilfully guided his hotel through 20 to moultrie,

with years of history in the making. and in the final hours of the german occupation, he even helped to alter the course of history it order to completely destroy paris was not executed in the end and liberally stole played a part in this. in exchange for sparing the city $150.00 german officers wives were hidden from the french resistance that the police stole for a night and smuggled out of paris unharmed. ah, the man responsible for cutting the deal was swedish consul general. how will nordland, who knew he believed chummy and liberally stole very well? ah,

today the hotel's role in this story is hardly known. liberty stole has never boasted about this part of its history. its focus remains on being the ideal luxury hotel but no. lemme the jewish architect who found refuge here, left his mark on the stove, restaurant in 1940 the hotel coal store was located here. the room with badly damaged mon covered the walls of the oval shaped room with light colored wood. he swapped the art deco furnishings for fine 18th century style furniture, giving the room a sense of elegance warmed up, the intimacy and distinction chest. every question has made the police told epicure of restaurants into a colon every temple which holds 3 michelin stars van dyke, undo the home that was. 1 all every day table reservations are discussed. the

restaurant is always fully booked up with the who's coming. are they v i p, which is on the thought that we did receive the waste that try out the new dishes on the menu. they must know exactly what they're serving and how it tastes to them. cuz you've got the wine selection must also be perfect. the some l. e. a coordinates it with the chef and the restaurant manager. people lead jammy was the only hotel owner in paris who remained lord of his castle throughout the war. in the post war period, the hotel is exceptionally good condition which owed much to leo le led the french foreign ministry to officially designate liberty stone as the place to stay when

ambassadors and accredited diplomats visited the french capital in paris was once again a major player on the international political stage and visiting world leaders also needed hotel rooms. the west german chancellor call nevada. now i often stayed at liberty stall, and it was here that he and french president child the goal, hammered out the final details of the treaty. the friendship treaty between france and west germany. ah, what could be striking from the stock chancellor? i don't know. i had an apartment here that come from the time he started coming to paris regularly. you know, he didn't always physically occupied. and the officer that it was standard practice for all german chancellor to have an apartment in paris. they didn't have to register off the ambassador to prepare for their arrival. and it was like they were

at home the paper, he'd have a new city computer issues. ah, in his day, john a me at many great statesmen, including then us president harry truman liberally stone was now a true luxury class hotel. even today politicians, including german chancellor angle america. appreciate it's relative seclusion. it's possible to let you talk. i think le bristol has always been a meeting place for the powerful are due to its proximity to the palace, to interior ministry. so the political world is always in here. the business world as well. multi school because business, many publications, in places of power law, oppression, and a lot of galleries have to get up shop nearby on his own home. the one morning and main. 1900. 64 people

each. i'm a, an expected li collapsed on the sidewalk. 2 days later, after suffering a heart attack and a stroke, he died from then on his eldest son, pierre ran the family business. ah, yes, the young rebel became pierre the hotel manager and husband aah for liberty stone. he flew around the world like his father before him. pierre charmaine met with v. i. p. like then, future french president jacques, she huck. but what would a luxury hotel be without a truly romantic love story with me after the divorce from his 1st wife, heidi entered his life. the young german woman was looking for

a job at the stolen paris of all places. i am at 19 and i wasn't even age. you only were 21 back then and came to paris and they called in the police. it was to 22 out of trying to travel from the parents of long enough to fly to america 3 times today. oh oh fun. when he finally received me, it took to half an hour and i was hired on the screen when quite well, he done him up. no, you can't hear what you want to do me. did i don't kid tell me what you want me to do? and that was it. you have room know then you get one extension in hobbs now i was

out the door. oh, back then. it was twice heidi's age. but that proved no obstacle. city it was level like already the couple married in 1966. ah, 3 years later their daughter was born. ah, the family enjoyed living in the hotel. they received the guests and represented and carried on eagerly jemine's legacy was showing of the passions just simply the nicest thing in the d n. and heidi continued to run the hotel through the 1900 sixties and seventies back then. strict codes of conduct were still in place that luxury hotel was 90 minutes

. and we actually want to more of a quiet clientele, but not like the him today. stevie horton. it was a little old fashion as well. for example, the man couldn't restaurant wearing a time. then thinkable to guess later the police told got its own hair salon. and last but not least, something he probably jeremy had always rejected out of hand. an in house bar show it shaking out to my father with his dip the magic day on town did not want a bomb in the brisk door. he was afraid that street walkers would come into the hotel again for rude boys started. i opened the bar, who knew more than 1975 josephine baker,

celebrated her 50th stage anniversary in paris. 250 invited guests came to liberty stone to join in the revelry with the legendary american born performer who found fame in france. only to him all goals. partly josefina baker also celebrated the last evening of her life. here it was the last big soiree presided over by the german family. mm. i have for dinner, joseph ricka. we held the last dinner for joseph, who died the next day at the funeral was hounded la madeleine user. and then on the book who we had lots and lots of artists says use actress to seal. so i came down the stairs and asked it,

i know good doing that. i'll do pre lots of office. so she liberally sto, now boasts one of the largest hotel, wine sellers in france, almost 100000 bottles are stored here. 85 percent of them are french wine some 15 years ago, liberally stole began producing its own house wine and has a mass quite a collection. formerly a bell now never always finds just the right vintage to go with every meal served at the epicure restaurant. even equally jammy wasn't averse to a glass or 2 and i mean, we started them, of course, that they still had a wine santa back then though it didn't have as many bottles. now you'd actually,

we've been lucky enough to acquire a large number of bottles. and through the great efforts of the shaft, the restaurant was awarded with the 1st 2, then 3 mission stars. so we've really expanded our wine cellar because the demand is down like lines to come to eat lunch or dinner at a 3 star restaurant in our commerce. when it comes to wine in front of me. so we must respond to that demand and dance. what we've done is almost a century has passed since liberty stole 1st, opened its doors in 1978. the shamay family sold the hotel in addition to the managing director, lead had 9 other children who stood to inherit their share awe . today, globally stall is a 5 star palace hotel, the highest hotel classification that exists in france. it managed to retain its original character, discreet, unobtrusive,

and laid back. while moving with the time you do evil readings, half a phone pretty well. as you can see now, i'm the 1st female head concierge in palace hotel would be bad at the sauce. this was mainly a man's profession. wow. why? because she used to work a way up from being caught malays, bellboys, smell, and back. then they had to carry heavy load if it's very small for light, see we have today. so here more need there were esentially or man bill which and then they had to pop nice cars, which was also my older man, the good. but today there are schools which let young people young women trained to become unable to enter this profession. sonya papa is duties as concierge differ considerably from those of her predecessors. routine for now you said maybe there was

a telephone in the beginning that maybe not so like when the fax machines and telecom, if she called to communication was very different back then you connect her back and you know, and when you wanted to make a reservation at the restaurant, you had to know the phone number by heart, have the right contact, my day to loop and i've been told that when i left, an establishment, concierge told that address book, they separate. they fold their positions with all the contacts that is nipple and also experience. the sales are now with the news. social networks and the internet . our clients can get only information they want you to have to do a formation key. so our profession has changed entirely, as the client already know. it is it already know what they want to do is they arrived at the hotel and with telescope, the fair liberty stole is open to wall, yet retains an air of mystery. woody allen shot his film midnight in paris here,

and a listers, like leonardo dicaprio, a regular guest who can come and go virtually unnoticed. ah, when i do need that, we've added a touch of glamour to la bristol, in recent years, before things here for a more masculine diplomat, business finance, which you know, we have given it a bit of glamour with the cinema lumber remaining very recently. so i suspect it all comes back to that aspect of being safe and of being sheltered from everything. even if you do something terrible. even if you leave here thinking you should never have done it. what happens here stays here. so the word will never get out is suspended. and this aspect of silence, which we call discretion, is something that has always characterized us is and what's good is it something

that underlines the family aspect? that's what happens in a family, stays in a family and he asked me ah ah, ah ah, to the point clear positions, international perspective. one of the most international respect figures in germany's catholic church is ignatius of pope francis decided the catastrophe of sexual abuse by church officials. meanwhile, in canada mass graves, his children discovered a former school to the point on
