the, the, this is dw use life from the in germany slips into recession. the 1st 3 months of 2023. so pro, shrink by point 3 percent compared to the previous quarter. economist florrie, will. the trends continue longer to go from the roger sanders, formerly entered the 2024. the waste presidential price. if they've chaotic

announcements on twitter is fix total beating. the bible, donald trump, for the republican nomination alliance is under pressure as russia. hostess talks between armenia and azerbaijan, tensions rise between the 2 countries over the disputed territory of not going to cover about kind of as rock legend to teen. a ton of dies at the age of $83.00. an electrifying performances and powerful voice, captivated audiences worldwide and across the decades. we go back as her life and legacy the i've been puzzling. welcome. as the german economy has fallen into procession gross domestic product, frank by point 3 percent in the 1st 3 months of the year, was remaining in negative territory for the 2nd quarter in a row. according to the latest numbers,

it's private consumption that's failed to support the economy in the face of hyatt place in rates and recession in europe's largest economy comes despite germany being sped and economic worst case scenario. many economists to feed winter it turned out was on usually mild, had it been cold, the country would've faced the gas shortage that could've left much deeper scars on the economy. open bar, i'm going to buy robots from our business desk. rob, just tell us how jimmy has managed to get into this position. it was supposed to be so different, wasn't it ben? can you test your mind back? starts at 2022 and we were looking at how does he? yeah, there was supposed to be when germany is economy came roaring back into life, having come out of the other side of the front of it, but we know 2022 turned out very differently. no one had counted on russia's invasion of the crane and the knock on effects that that would have particularly on the gym and economy. here, when we talked about energy prices, germany was a scrambling to find other sources,

other than russia for its energy that drive up the cost of energy for households. as a result, it turns out the household spend less than people were expecting them to spend at the end of last year and going on into the stats of this year so that everyone's been saving excellent people to be outside sining that balance having to as, as as you do and your bill is start to go up and that was sort of the start of the edge. i mean, it's just about dodge this recession because the original for, we're not focused the original uh, results for the 1st year with that, out of the best quarter with a gemini, have stack dated, then there was 0 percent credit. so just dodging recession, that's just been reassessed. actually. stick. how much time? 5.3. christie mentioned. that's how long. how long do you think this is going to go on? so we just have to 2 consecutive go to the make for a technical recession. all we're going to have a 3rd while a lot of the conditions that lead to us having this technical recession in the 1st place remain in place and still very high to the 7 percent with head or earlier this week. the,

your zone economy has been struggling to grow as well. so it could happen, but the saving grace may, will be the fact that chinese economy is ramping up once again. and that means germany's factories around picking up again on the production is starting to, to, to get back to where it was before the fund demik before the invasion of ukraine by russia. so that could be the saving grace. but so it's predictions from earlier this year that jeremy's economy would grow overall this year we're starting to look particularly for our job because the way it was especially very low growth anyway. and now we have this recession of the stuff. so yeah, it looks like we may, may, will stay the robots for our business desk. thank you very much for filling us in. governor of the us state of florida, rhonda sat has, has fully analyses been to become america's next president. it was a bumpy stock for the long awaited announcement when his much high to roll out on twitter hidden technical difficulties. it took almost half an hour to get going of

what's to say, i just released this campaign video, who's run the sites on a clash with conservative front runner in the public and run of a former president. donald trump, we've proved that it can be done. let's have a look at the moment. the senate has announced his whitehouse bid in an audio chat with twitter. rhoda is on last or well, i am running for president of the united states to lead our great american come back. what we know, our country is going in the wrong direction. we see it with our eyes, and we steal it in our bones, our southern borders collapse. drugs are pouring into the country. our cities are being hollowed out by spiking crime. the federal government's making it harder for the average family to make ends meet and do a pain and maintain a middle class wide style and our president, while he lacks vigor flounders in the face of our nations. challenges and crates is queues from the work mob. social democrats mentioned huck. sadie is deputy chairman of the german us problem in friendship group. i asked him about his reaction to the

announcement by defense. well, we're hoping not as bad as under president trump, but we're not sure now i think at this point it's fair to say that mr. sanders is running an extremely interior our campaign and foreign policy is not too much of his interest. um, but we are not feeling really well about it. do really think he's the one who could out trump trump what at this point uh, probably he ran his campaign pretty late. um. so like, uh, like for the technical issues tonight, he also has issues with his campaign to so he came out late, i assume, and looking at the numbers today, it will be very, very difficult for him to, to challenge mr. trump, because you never know it. so a long way of the primaries of the republican party, the debates are starting in august. so still some months ago we will see here and you said he doesn't have

a specific focus on international relations. but how do we think a defend his presidency would reshape the world or the biden's work so hard to restore off the that i solution is period of the trump, it was certainly is going to be, but the words for the trans atlantic relation but also for the will to compare to, to mr. to present binds a policy at this point and he will focus on on, on the homefront. so if, if it's worth spending money in ukraine to make the numbers better in, in the u. s, he would do it if not, he wouldn't do it. so it's very, very difficult to for see, but listening carefully to what he said so far. he's very critical about giving the support that is necessary in europe towards russia as it was now. so we will, we have to expect less engagement than it is today. anything else we should look out for in the lead up to this election?

well, for the republic and it's super, it will be super interesting how these campaigns will be run now inside. so it's not just the battle between him and, and mr. by mr. bite. i'm sorry, mr. trump. it's also other candidates are shipping in as well, right. we're expecting the former vice president to go in. we're expecting other candidates and it's all, sometimes all about money. who's, who's getting the most financial support, so that will be a tough race. it's not over yet. trump is in advance. obviously piece of the numbers are much better for him today. but that doesn't have to stay till the end or the beginning of next year. so let's see, 11 debates within the republican party will be a great show for everybody. was you, you brought up the money fact today? let me just uh, uh, pick up on that uh, with the santa spitting uh, financial aid to this uh, this race as well. some of the public, as are trying to tell the story, is supporting dissenters that he will raise more money long term. as mr. trump,

because it's in the interest because everybody believes mr. trump would not win the presidential x and actually, and that's why they're counting on on dissenters to, to have a fair chance to win against mr. biden. so that might give them an x in an advantage to raise money. um, but we will see this point, mr. trump is, is unbeatable, but they're still a few months, 10 months to go for the decision making. so let's see how this works out. i figured you'd use met and have 50 deputy chairman of the gym and you've waste elementary friendship. great. thank you. let's take a look at some of the other stories making headlines. ukraine says it shut down all 36 russian drones that attacked the capital. keith overnight. according to military chiefs, the uranium made drones were destroyed by the cities a defenses. they said it was the 12th such attack this month, a russian nationals finding that ukraine has held in the incursion into russia as

a success. emissions had groups of volunteers across the border to the belle grove, broadway region in russia. the attack embarrassed the prevalent but also spots questions about the west willingness to supply ukraine with weapons because some of those solvency is have times to find rank rates. hundreds of people have demonstrated in the believe in capital of pause against what they allege is a cover up of the sexual abuse by of children. by catholic priests, the obligation came to lie down to the publication of a diary written by just what praised documenting the abuse of thousands of children, the seventy's and eighty's. now full time through my law has last the us pacific territory of guam with fast moving winds and heavy rains. it's the strongest type thing to hit the lot in nearly 2 decades, tearing down trees, bowls and power lines. the national weather service full costs, smile with more intensity,

but it's moving away from one of the open sea. russia is hosting tools between media and azerbaijan in moscow, in a bit to diffuse tensions between the 2 countries over the dispute with the territory of that going to cause a box. the kremlin has recently been playing a peacekeeping role between the 2 former soviet countries which have for 2 boys in recent years. but the media has voice this satisfaction with roches role and the lines is being put under pressure. a report of jennifer pocket has more the roots of this conflict go back 100 years after the russian revolution. 1917 armenia and other page on, fell under bolshevik control and became part of the soviet union. that kept a little intentions until the soviet union collapsed. the classic that's no territorial conflicting at the end of the soviet union,

3 quarters of the territory was populated by armenians and one quarter by either by johnnies who are then distributed over the territory. it wasn't possibility, divide the territory from ethnic point of view about this, i'll try and contact the 1991, the people who now go now cut off. i decided to officially break away from other page on the armenians. if not. garner got up off, supported by our menia for a war of independence until 1994. finally, a gardener called our boss declared it's independence from us or based on its status, was meant to be finally decided on in peace negotiations. but they never took place in 2020, as their visual and invaded, never know, caught up off and conquered large parts of the region and a 6 week long war a contract signed by

both countries and mediated by russia, stop the fighting. the ceasefire was supposed to be safety guarantee for the armenian population. living in the gartner cut off, but on september 12, 2020, as are based on attacked internationally recognized armenian territory. while our medias main goal is to keep its territorial integrity, azerbaijan has a different agenda. their goal is to have a corner door to other based on sex cleave. knock each yvonne and it's closest ally, turkey. at the moment other bees on blocks the watching cord or road that links our media and gordon. oh god above described as a lifeline for residents. armenia has so far relied on the backing of russia a long time military partner that supports come into question. of course, is a russian situation in the region. it has weakened because of the war and you're trained. moscow is already disappointed. i mean, yeah,

into 2020 was that's what i mean. then russia had always stated that go into the car, but it's not covered by security guarantees that's of problems that was accepted. but during the implementation of the ceasefire agreement, russia has failed you. it's lashan corda in that going to kind of ask is blocked by either by john to even set up a check point. there is this contradicts the ceasefire agreements called which states that the corda will remain on the russians. peacekeepers control, we've just talked with russia looking the other way. the competition for influence is brewing between the u and u. s. on one hand, and russia on the other, the west ones armenia to remain democratic and independent. in doing so, further weakening russia for russia, and it's ambitions that poses a threat, but well, efforts the settled accomplish during going the last century has left its toll on

armenia, and azerbaijan, and, and to the conflict, is not insight. let's talk about that with alexia. about time, john, it's, she's a senior analyst for the south corpus region at the crisis group. that's an independent fink tank. working to prevent was and result complex, joins us from the georgia and capital subleasing. thank you. just a few days ago, your organization won. the trouble is brewing in the region of nicole and o'connor about what is happening there as well. in fact, uh at this very moment, the situation remains relatively stable along all the front lines. both in the were in the curb of conflict zone and uh, at the state food of between army and the zip like um. but the days before that and weeks before that there had been question has taken place on the regular basis. at least 4 people died only in may and the month hasn't finished and we spring has been to date list seems to the end to the 2022 or so. your use report

mentioned also the blockage of the key role road that connects armenia to nowhere in the current above, which has been the problem for over a feet 5 months. and then that has created also are the shortages to, for the foods, to the local population. and that definitely adds an additional layer of executive for the local population that still wants to see more guarantees for them for their future in the, in the land that they can see that their homeland. what are your expectations of today's talk in moscow between the median then does area lead is as well, which is not the so strong that the army and there's a bridge on the leaders have been having in fact, since since the beginning of my army, unless it by john, they have been meeting each other or almost every week in different places. it started was washington dc and then proceeded the brussels. so just days ago,

before him in a sense of warming and the zip where john they had talks in most go as well. so we just kind of a process that is going on between the 2 countries. it's a very important for this process to continue. there was a pause in the tubs because of the problems closed at the electron corridor. it's now down to standing that the 2 countries need to make an additional push to see if they can come up for we've agreements on the plea. some parts, all the top topics that they still continue to disagree on. one such topic is of course the future of no gordon, a car boss. and then we say is where armenia can continue saying that it's recognized as a territorial integrity over simple john. but it would also want to see some security guarantees and protection of the rights for the ethnic armenians will leave in, in the caustic zone which has been the region that continues to facing regularly

dance and clashes for over 40 years. so i mean, there is, was, was demand coming from the army upside. i should say, that was, there's nothing you think which has been like least the position of the army and government has been declared for over a year. the problem areas that those are present does not really see why should do that. i, the bridge on the leaves of the conflict is over and there is no need for any kind of additional provisions. but with all of these points of disagreements, this is shelby, this conflict is actually going to continue as well. you know, when the, you have a conflict so, so to use it's difficult to see how it can result overnight. it's really very important to continue the process. when you speak, there is less possibility that we are to see a new war either and you worse to take place. and the region is going to be

devastating. can leave many more casualties, especially on the armenian side, because armenia was never able to restore its army after losing the war in 2020. and as you were oddly mentioned, in your new support, it's really just part no rush. these now these are taking ukraine. so in that you know, way, you know, we've negotiation process is a gamble that is taking place and a lot is at stake, especially for media in because if even you escalation and then your voice would take place, armina is probably the one that is too loose. okay, thank you very much for the inside senior research and as the crisis group palacio hang on as a legend has passed away, but her message lives on seeing athena toner owned her troll. but using it to change the world in the eighty's, she spoke out about her abusive marriage to co performer. i can turn

a while trying to establish a solo career despite during the consequences she and as a paving the way for so many women in rock music, black and white. when it comes to music legions. gina tennis was simply the be the born in brownsville, tennessee in 198910 that came from humble beginnings. this singing and gospel plasma going home. she began performing with this husband like during the 19 sixties and stephen take that has died of eclipse. his antenna keeps the hit songs flowing along after escaping to be a violent marriage. throughout

the 19 eighties and nineties, the queen of rock and roll rooms, audiences with a powerful voice. incredible john through chains and boundless energy. tell you that everyone is now going to jim jim's and exercising and carrying on. and it is say that it's good for your help. all of us yelling and, and i've been singing and traveling and dancing for 35 years. so i think that my work has taken care of all of my aerobic classics. so that's the answer to that one . all right. she recorded massive hits from what's love got to do with that to we don't need another heroes and that'd be winning. i grammy's, or the

end the ending millions of a turing sends along the way. after a c a welcome to it. in 2009, she retired to switzerland was upon the when box. i can describe a few things that pills wonderful is countryside. the cattle, the farm houses. it's a reminder of the past tennessee when i was a young girl which is very nice. also. ringback mountains, it's such a young doing this distance, the height, the magic thing is entertainers and world leaders are among those paying tribute to, to, to, to up, to date and legacy. as one of the all time greats will no doubt live on the well, let's take a closer look at the life and career of tina toner with current health said from dw culture. what, in your opinion, to make such an icon?

i think it's, i think it's, it's interesting to see here there is and have been, you know, after, after, after possibly not having listened to her for quite a while. i mean, i think when you look at all the tributes that are pouring in the comments on social media, the adjectives that are being used to describe it, i think it's pretty clear. it's for energy and explosive role. magnetic dynamic, unstoppable electric. those are the, those are the words being used to describe this woman. i mean, she, i think the music role really stood still for a moment to think that they'd law such a powerful voice. she was sort of the proverbial force of nature and an absolute powerhouse life performer, but also in life, you know, she never let anything get her down. and i think derrick obama was the one who expressed if he said she was unapologetically herself. and i think that has really resonated with so many as, especially for women my, my that is to say time and again, decades on, you know, into her career looking at it. she's got so much energy. she's up there again on the stage and performing indeed. so well, so amazingly, and she wasn't just

a role model though for, for women on stage and women and music, but also in real life. i think sure, yes, it was absolutely or a role model in real life simply because she was able to to prevail over adversity . you know, she survived this abusive relationship with her husband i turner. he was important for her because he was the gateway to her career. he gave her the name, she was able to take the name with her, but she she never took no for an answer. she literally elbowed her way into the rock music world. i mean, he wouldn't give her an audition and she grabbed him, mike during that during the intermission. so i'm one of his gigs sang song by be king and then ended up saying the whole rest of the evening. so that the rest is, is kind of history between the 2 of them. they were an incredible deal, but she was also a role model. so she was a role model for women. but she was really, i think, also for musicians, for black musicians. she was, for instance, the 1st black musician, but the 1st woman ever on the,

on the cover of rolling stone magazine back in 67. and as you said, you know, all those decades that your dad mentioned. i mean, she was 44 when she released private dancer and really pioneered or along with people like share i supposed colleagues like share this idea of the, of the sexy star later in life and on that that really resonated with so many people it inspired. so many men to private then. so that was back in 1984, i believe the deal almost 40 years. so you'd still hear of music today like you know, uh on, on the radio here a bullet. if i go home to count, i definitely hear it on the radio stations there because they've, they've kind of gotten stuck between the seventy's and eighty's and canadian radio . i mean, i think, yeah, absolutely it's, it's so still relevant today. i mean, given that all the 1980s music is also being revived, coming back constantly being sampled and re mixed. but there's no question that that, that music is still relevant. plus, when you look at some for older hits,

those are evergreen's, they're never, they never going to go away. so what's the legacy lawson? i think our legacy is really, you know, the voice, the stage presence and the legs. obviously, i mean that she has been, i that, but i think she'll really be remembered for having created a style all her own, you know, back in the sixty's. she was, she was a complete departure from sort of the very neat kind of desk is and choreography is of low town in the time in the sixty's. she took her voice to completely new territory. she could, you know, a rail and cream and well and, and it was always compelling. um, or cover of proud mary and 1971. i think that the creedence clearwater revival, tentative is, is one that will always stand up for me. it's just, it's a and i conic song and by and i kind of performer, count alan's that. thank you very much. pleasure. i had a quick reminder about top story. germany slips into recession with close,

shrinking by point 3 percent in the 1st quarter of 2023. it was the 2nd successive quarter of any. scott and florida governor found a sentence fully enters the 2024 u. s. presidential race with a k or i think announced middle twitter have modified technical, which i'm next complex on sarah kelly, interviews, russian economists so again, or else i've been as well. and thanks for watching the

enters the conflicts with sarah kelly. my guess this week on the conflicts on was one of the most prominent members of freshman's wealth connected power over former kremlin advisor and economist, sergey gloria now is a professor of economics, then provost, etc, and of his work illuminates how far terry museums likes to survive how does she

assess this grip on power conflict? on sexual harassment in public transport is common place for women in sweet long the solution females took took dr. is get this still, many wheels. why? bennett? talk soon to freedom, the voice i am must see all the new jobs. she's the face of a protest movement. i didn't think so many women would send me the photos.

she's their motivator. all of us hire a little must be the and she won't give up to watch the assignment for public took my brother hostage a few days ago. the trying to sign in the scene on the job. they won't be silent. starts june, 3rd on the w. my guess this week on conflicts own was one of the most prominent members of russia's well connected power, elite, former kremlin advisor and economist, sergey gloria was head of a top economic university and was being re elected to the supervisory board of spare bach rushes, largest lender when he suddenly fled to france 10 years ago saying he fear for his safety. i know the.
