says i'm landed him in 5 nazi concentration camps over a period of 15 months, which he later chronicled in his native language. levine in power is works, have been translated into at least a dozen other languages and earned him top honors from slovenia and countries across europe. he died at his home in italy, aged 108 ah said show up to date ball well nears at the top of a our, a daniel window has your date of the business update in just a moment of good people in trucks injured when trying to flee the city center. more and more refugees are being turned away. families. the, the reason for the credit on it is we like demonstrate people

being screened. us getting 200 people had thought you'd be around the world. more than 300000000 people are seeking refuge. yes, the wine. because no one should have to flee. make up your own mind. d. w. made for mines. ah, prices just keep on rising german inflation at its highest in decades. that's as the cost of energy shows, no sign of letting up or get an expert insight on what can be done to hold rocketing inflation. price woes are also hitting producers due to supply

bottlenecks. that's one topic on the spot might of the world's biggest industry fair in hanover, will take you for a visit and not in our backyard. we visit the timing american town that saying no to the electric truck make up river. it's that time again. the w business. welcome oil prices are on the rise once more. brent crude, reaching over a $120.00 for the 2nd time this year. the price of energy is part of the reason. everything costs so much right now. just take germany where the country has announced and an inflation rate of close to 8 percent for may. that's compared to the same month last year. that's the biggest jump in consumer prices. in nearly half a century, the rapid rise could provoke the european central bank into raising interest rates . something it's so far been reluctant to do was get more in this now with monica schnitzer, who's a member of the german council of economic experts. thank you very much. for joining us, monica, and can the german government or even the e. c. b,

do any thing about this jump in inflation, or does it simply have to wait for opec to pump more oil or for the end of the war in ukraine? that is really a very difficult question to answer. let's put it like this. these would be definitely can do something about it and should do something about it. it's that job to get control and inflation. and for this, they win and they have already announced they will end the net to purchase program off on july. and they have also announced that interest rate hikes, wind and funnel i, which doesn't expect that they will do so in july. and this is really necessary because inflation expectations have to be nice and we're going to see more wage negotiations in the summer in the fall. and we really have to make sure that this wage price aspirant will not get side of that. everybody so much rain off. ok,

but most of this inflation is tied up in energy prices. so isn't that easy basically targeting the wrong mechanism if it raises right? because after all, it can't do much about the the price of energy right now. yeah, absolutely. right. it's not the easy piece of control of the energy rises. this is something that will be affected by what is going on in your brain, whether that will be an a model or this will effect the energy rises. so this is not under the control of the c b, but a do will affect the inflation expectations. what the c b doesn't in that sense. they have to do something about it. other than that, what the government needs to make sure that there will be energy supplies. if it's not coming from russia, then it has to come from somewhere else. and therefore everything that the

government does to stabilize this. so live a finding alternative spike, putting pressure on joining to renewable energy se on this would have to step on ice the uncertainty because what at the moment is really driving up prizes is the uncertainty. it's not that we have as dr. in energy deliveries at this moment, it's really this uncertainty that drives off prices. ok, i mean, it's been a long time since most rich nations have had to deal with rocketing inflation. can we look to the past and previous waves of inflation as a way to navigate this crisis? and if so, what lessons can we take from then to math? so really the last time we had inflation to that extent, that was in the seventy's. when we had this, i price inflation because of this cats in iowa deliveries from the old banks countries. and what then happened was indeed that the den wouldn't us bank who was

in charge for german monetary policy, that the blender spine could try to control it by racing interest rates. and actually that worked out pretty was so well, inflation standardized then after sometime. ok, but it seems at this time around we might have to learn some new lessons as well along the way monica schmidt said, thank you very much for your analysis on madison as not just energy costs that are driving a prices in germany. a shortage of materials in the countries manufacturing sector is also pushing up inflation. new data out on monday shows some 77 percent of companies here complained of bottleneck. some problems getting raw materials in may . that's according to the ego institute. port closures in china due to strict locked downs of made the situation even worse. supply chain headaches will be one of the key concerns at this years, hanover fair, which has returned after a pandemic hiatus. the world's biggest industrial conference comes at a time of great uncertainty from manufacturers across the globe. the

2022 hung over fear is running at around half its pre pandemic capacity with some $2500.00 exhibitors instead of $5000.00 industrial transformation is the theme the call to action. businesses cannot afford to ignore. given the pandemic and soaring energy prices amid the war in ukraine. and while companies with sustainable energy solutions may benefit from renewed focus on a target of energy, they also have their own challenges about attacks. one of the biggest challenges is taking people with us along this transformation to move on to offer new ideas. for example, in public transportation, for us to really offer alternatives and not just talk about them. there's been more than just talk lately. decisions are being made faster than ever before. in may,

brussels announced it would invest up to 300000000000 euros to help the e. e. u become independent of russian fossil fuels. and in germany, the readiness of policy makers to help businesses respond swiftly to ongoing challenges has also increased in crisis situations. we usually see that our mutual interest and readiness to talk on think about solutions is bigger than in maybe more regular normal times. so right now this is barry brought an open readiness and both sides to talk today, policy makers are increasingly we drawing the framework for companies to do business. it's happening at a rapid pace. still, companies have their work cut out. well, i think export orientated companies have to rethink the strategy of some find a solution, biding, changing nothing because they're not active in any countries that are high risk.

other sir, start to invest also in production and research in certain regions to become independent and to have a complete different value change. the value chains of the global economy are being we drone rapidly, amid significant macroeconomic and geopolitical challenges. d, w.
