sparking an outpouring of anger here in germany. it was this moment at the very end of the press conference that caused outreach. oh come on in since 1947 for to come back to the present day and feel israel has had hurried out 50 massacre in belda for the for me in 50 palestinian village of the elephant dora 50 massacres. 50 holocaust, you and until to day every day, every day our people get killed by the israeli army. this about germany is needing tablo bait called as a holocaust scandal at the chancellor's office. but it wasn't only about comment that spite outraged it was also this reaction from all of choice. the press conference was concluded as planned with no visible attempt specialists to contradict albert he should have told him to leave tweeted,

conservative opposition, lead everything to the mat. you shouldn't go into a press conference visit us without having saw before about publications of this kind, which should be expected. and then you know that you have to react because it's berlin, it's a german chancellor. and as a german chancellor emmett, growing pressure shows responded with his own tweet for us germans in particular, any relative i zation of the singularity of the holocaust is intolerable and unacceptable. during wednesdays press conference showed spokesperson took the blame for the lack of immediate reaction and made it clear there would be consequences. there was ever that the german chancellor expects the palestinian president to recognize the singularity of the holocaust without any qualification his gaff

yesterday caused. so dark shadow over germany's relationship with the palestinian authority mackwood abbas toned down his message and a new statement that his holocaust remarks have already strained german palestinian relations. while d w. political correspondent need a hasa talk me through german reactions that to that statement. where yeah, the reactions have been very strong in detail. many politicians have called our buses, commons outrages, some said it was the biggest derailment at the chancery in history, even angler mac. or we'll remember her, the former chancellor who's been keeping a low profile for the last year published a statement saying such relative ation of the holocaust was something that germany would never tolerate. but yes, a lot of the outrage today was also directed at how the current german chancellor shows handled the situation. i was at the press of phil and there were 2 moments where we really held her breath 1st when our boss spoke of apartheid in his country now. so as quickly distance himself from that. but then later on,

when he made this holocaust comment, everybody knew that was the last question and answer. but the word holocaust lingered in the room. and so it did begin to frown. it looked to me and to others as though he wanted to respond. but then he didn't, and his spokesperson ended, the presser shows shook hands with our boss and left. so he should definitely have responded there. and then right now, and we've, we've heard from best buy, so government spokesperson, who's take the blame for ending this press conference. so abruptly i'm, i'm guessing that it's not going to do anything to dispel the pressure on the chancellor smile. in actual fact, his spokes person, stephanie was tried, went on the record to day repeating what he told us on tuesday after the presser. so when he came back to us journalist yesterday after the press a he said already that his boss was upset with him, that chose was angry, that he resigned, had ended the precedence soon and that he wanted to say something. but of course, many are now saying that the german chancellor can, of course, always overrule his own spokesperson. in these situations, the chance would have been there, but shorts didn't. right. you perhaps you could explain why these comments have

provoked such a strong reaction. here a germany well, when ever there is a debate about holocaust, people here in germany are extremely sensitive that has to do with our history. and of course, there is a difference between legitimate criticism of some of the actions the israeli government stands for on the one side and using words that relative eyes what the nazis here in germany did during the 2nd world war. that is just a no go in germany and everybody, every diplomat knows that around the world and relative isaac and what will hold the cost is even illegal here. so the feeling is that my, what about strategically used the political stage here, he must have been aware that it was going to be a tremendous provocation to use that word for israel's actions at the chancery. and of course, it's not going to do is cause any favors to provoke the chancellor like that relations are going to be strained. and the other is of course,

the other scandal that choice didn't immediately challenge this on diplomatic language. i thank you for that, nina. nina hasa and dw corresponded tanya cramer and jerusalem told me about the israeli reaction to these come while there was clearly also sha can outweighed here and in israel among, you know, israeli politicians across the political board about the use of the holocaust. and the statements made by palestinian prison mom went up, are standing there alongside the german chancellor, olaf shawls searches to an info at side, a crow to few. now, prime minister, your ill, a pete said in the statement on twitter that while, and that's a quote, standing on german soil. it is not only a moral disgrace, he said, but a monstrous lie. and he added also that history will never forgive him. our defense minister benny guns, who had actually recently met with the palestinian, our president mahmoud abbas and said that abbas words are despicable and false. and

his statement is an attempt to distort and rewrite history. we also heard from the head of from danny diane, the head of d r. holocaust memorial. yet were sham and jerusalem, who also called a you know, his statements to speaker and appalling. and we understand or seen report in the israeli media that the are caretaker government here would expect an apology from the palestinian president. and the palestinian president has indeed issued another statement. now in response to the criticism, what's he been saying? that's right. and the after the backlash, now d r, palestinian authorities officially off a news agency carried that statement that was released by the palestinian presidency. our clarifying darts are the holocaust is the most heinous crime. that's also quote from that statement in modern history. and that our boss was

stressing out that his answer was also, quote, not intended to deny the singularity of the holocaust, that hurt and the last center in that he was condemning it in the strongest terms. he also stressed however, you know that the crimes he was referring to are committed by israeli forces that were crimes committed since 1948 since at the foundation of the state of israel. that a statement came out, of course, a couple of hours later after this backlash from ramallah here in the morning. okay, thank you for that, tonya tonya kraemer in jerusalem small headlines from around the world. i can, is president elect sir william router has said there's no time to waste following his election when, but rather up a bit, but the rudder up rather or dingo has said he challenged the legality of the results for out of the countries. 7 electoral commissions have said they cannot stand by the result and avoid several people have been injured in

senior officials not to reveal too many details about military operations. nobody here really believes that it has been a strange series of accidents on the russian side. it's a lot of different explanations are discussed at the moment, and some of the salenti presidential advisors have also hinted at some form of ukrainian involvement. even the involvement of some kind of special forces have been discussed here. but it's all speculation at the moment the russian side even claims now that it has broken up some cell offer local islamists route that might be involved in the attack. so there are, there's a lot of confusion, probably a lot of wanted confusion around. so the topic and a lot of russian tourists actually currently leaving the region right. i'm

elsewhere, been fighting around this apparition at nuclear plant has been causing particularly particular concerns. what's the latest there? well, from what we have heard, there haven't been any new attacks in the past 24 hours. but indeed, in the past days, the area around for a nuclear power plant has been hit several times by a tillery strikes. the situation is very alarming. we spoke to an engineer yesterday who used to work at the plant and she said she is very, very concerned about the situations. a lot of workers are leaving the plant at the moment and it's not clear how opperation can go on. so yeah, the situation is wary. some in theory, ukraine and russia agree that there should be a mission of international inspectors that says, should be allowed at the power plant,

but they disagree on conditions to let the observer travel to the plant. and a quick look at had to thursday's meeting between our president zalinski i turkey's president irwin and un secretary general antonio good cherish. i'm was likely to be on their agenda. i think the safety issues surrounding the nuclear power plant and supper this year will definitely play an important role. but the agenda will probably be dominated by the so called grain deal. as you know, cherokee and the united nations have both been involved in this a great deal for that allows now the resumption of grain exports from from parts at the black sea. and this is also the reason why we cherish is planning to continue to the port city of odessa after his meeting tomorrow. thank you for that. d. w correspondent, young phillip shots in keith. the russian forces are slowly advancing

a vulcan petterson has died at the age of 81 and shot to fame with his world war to submarine. epic thus bought in 1981. his 1st english language film said never ending story in 1984 before going on to direct a string of hollywood hits, including thrillers, air force, one on the war. epic. troy wolfgang peterson built a career like few german directors ever achieved. his trademark elaborate powerful thriller, movies. his 1981 film thus bought the boat was one of german cinemas great successes . at the time it was germany's most expensive production yet and picked up 6 oscar nominations. leave by love, drink stories, love taking people by the hand, taking them to a world and keeping them there for hours. psychological depth and strongly defined characters. these elements were already evident in his early works for television,

like the german language crime series ta taught. after his success in theaters with thus bought and the fantasy film, the never ending story in the mid eighties, peterson moved to hollywood after an initial dry spell, one of cinema's biggest stars, clint eastwood wanted peterson to direct him in the line of fire, packed with action but profound was a triumph with rave reviews and a smashing success at the box office. peterson established himself as one of the hollywood blockbuster directors. his films often carried a patriotic message in air force won. the american president single handedly saves his plane from terrorists. the biggest stars wanted to work with both gunk, peterson. the budgets for his movies soon exceeded $100000000.00. his biggest commercial success was troy. the epic. historical film with brad pitt

peterson belong to the small circle of directors who are granted the final word in hollywood with complete creative control over their own work. in 2016 for the 1st time in 30 years, he directed a movie in germany. fig. in the bank for against the bank a crime comedy germany. but when i went to the u. s, i had the feeling and so did others. who said to me, you need to make a comedy film again because they think i'm funny that i have a sense of humour, which is true. please let us move along. wolfgang peterson, unexceptional director, a man who never forgot his roots, who lived out his dream, above all in hollywood. mm. okay, well then on the welcome pedersen, from david limits from the w culture. welcome david. what made this man a stand out from other filmmakers? well, you know, all filmmakers want their phones to be successful,

but the voice con, paid us and was obsessed with the idea that histones had to be for everyone. and it happened this way. he came upon this obsession of the young filmmaker. when he went, he snuck inside the cinema and he saw people walking out of one of his movies and that for him was the worst thing that could ever happen. so you vowed that that would never happen again. and his formula for keeping people in their seats through his films was really a sort of a special mixture of action and humanity. on the one side, he was very good at capturing action, very realistic action, of course, heightened and cinematic. but all of his films are very character driven as well. and they're not about super heroes. they're about normal people who are in extraordinary situations and have to and have to deal with that. he also, within the action movies on right, is incredibly versatile. it's alumnis mind boggling to think that the person who did air force one this movie with harrison ford is the u. s. president. beating out

terrorists in flight is the same person who did never ending story, which is a very sensitive children's fantasy film about the power of literature in this fantasy world of, of a magical book. and so how did he get from making a films in what was then west germany, to working with the biggy stars and hollywood? well, it really comes down to the breakthrough german film that he made. dust boat, which was nominated for 6 oscars. and just thought was really sort of an unlikely success. if you look at it at the face of the plot of it, this story about german soldiers are submariners in world war 2. told from a german perspective about their suffering is not a movie that you would think would have had a great international success, especially at the time. and actually, even in west germany, there were critics saying, this is a movie that glorifies war, but that's not what the audience is saw. and that's not what he meant. the audience

is saw that this was a movie about real men who were caught in a horrible situation, but they didn't want to be and, and that they were loyal to each other and trying to make the best of it. and now this movie is seen as one of the best anti war movies ever made. and so he was born in germany 1940, once a grew up in, in a post war, split country. how did that impact him and his career were in a way it's actually what led him to movies because growing up in postwar, germany, he, he knew that most of the grown ups around him had been loyal to hitler and the nazi regime. and he didn't feel like there was any one that he could really look up to as a role model. and he actually look to hollywood films to find his role models like high noon with gary cooper. this story of a man who's willing to do the right thing, no matter what the consequences. and he decided at a very early age that he wanted to make me. and he wanted to make that kind of

movie. he wanted to make movies about people who are going to do the right thing about about good guys in the end it led him to hollywood, led him to work with clint eastwood and brad pitt, and george clooney, and the biggest names in hollywood. thank you for that, david levitz on the life and times of volcanic medicine. thank you. a space agency and nasa has begun preparations to launch its most powerful rocket ever. the long delayed space launch system is part of a multi $1000000000.00 effort to return humans to the moon by the end of the decade . or this practice for future missions to mars enormous 98 meter tall rock it his schedule to undergo its 1st unmanned test. at the end of this month is remind of our top stores. at this hour, german chancellor olaf shout says he is disgusted after palestinian leader mahmoud abbas during the visit to berlin, accused israel of committing 50 holocausts against his people. the statement is like to an outpouring of anger. here in germany and ukrainian president vladimir
