there's an arrival when darren go to health, smart nature, the more likes watching it on youtube. dw documentary the this is the, the news life from berlin. germany unveils its 1st ever national security strategy that outlined the government's foreign and defense policy. and also how germany sees itself in the world. we look at what it could mean for its allies. also coming up on the show, we're live in milan, where former italian prime minister silvio berlusconi is being laid to rest. the

billionaire businessman and former leader died 2 days ago just a few months after being diagnosed with a rare blood cancer. the hello and clare richardson. thank you so much for joining us. germany has unveiled its 1st national security strategy, which has been years in the making. the strategy focuses on defense resilience and sustainability transfer aloft. schultz presented the document along with his top ministers based on national security and goes beyond the armed forces and will include space, energy, food, and climate. they also said the strategy will work to strength and defense against espionage and sabotage. here's chancellor schultz, but more in those lights, despite all the changes,

it remains the essential task of the state to ensure the security of its citizens without comfortable. is that because without security, there can be no freedom, no stability, no prosperity. now does the judge said that the national security strategy follows the guiding principle of integrated security? it's not just about defends into one, dismantle, but about the entire range of our security. lateesha knows from diplomacy to the police inspector, fire department, and technical a. organizations reduces williams calling effect. i spoke earlier, torture international editor richard walker, who was at that presentation of this new security strategy. he has more well, i think maybe the one kind of home, a simple message that the people around the world can latch onto him, particularly here in western europe. and in the broad a west is germany in black and white in this very formal document. the 1st national security strategy that it is ever published,

announcing that it will meet the nato target spending 2 percent of its economic output of its gdp on, on defense. now the background to this is, this is a target that was actually agreed to by member states of nature, way back in 2014. so almost a decade ago, um and germany, but not just germany, many countries of for sure scripts, but particularly germany is still fall short of that goal. and that's despite the fact that all of schoultz last year, just off to the russia, invaded ukraine, made a big announcement that jeremy would spend a $100000000000.00 euros investing in its military to, to bring its military up to stand it to make up for me. for those many years of, of, of, on the spending that money still hasn't trickled through into the, into the gym, the spending figures that are coming up year on year. now we have from the finance minister saying that he expects that 2 percent target to be hit next year and we have it in black and white in this national security strategy. i think that's

something that is going to be welcomed very much within nature. absolutely, the spending goal has long been a demand of allies. do you think this also means that germany is stepping into more of a leadership role on the international stage as well? i suppose the direction is trying to signal here. i just know, does that mean 2 percent of g d p sounds like a very kind of dry idea, but it took on this usually important political and symbolic world, particularly during the use of donald trump in the white house when he was seriously bashing germany and other european partners for understanding on defense, even suggesting that the united states might one way walk away from that one day and walk away from nature, which would be an absolute disaster. certainly for countries like nate gemini, that depends so much on nato, for the defense to very much gemini, sort of signaling to other nature pump is on to the why to well, it is taking defense more seriously, but not just in spending on, on the miller tree but also in this kind of the band of time, of resilience, of trying to kind of tough enough it society full potential conflict scenarios. and

what about the german position toward china? it seemed to got rather limited attention in this strategy. that's right. there's not a whole lot on china in this strategy. it repeats this idea is a china is of the one kind of partner competitor and the systemic rival. but suggesting that competition and rivalry is syncing up, which it certainly is between the united states and china. there's a lot of focus on where jeremy is positioning itself at the moment, visit the china. we have chinese administer as expected here in valley next week, for consultations with the government couch. but i need 2 weeks for expecting uh what the latest report suggesting. and around 2 weeks we might be guessing germany's new strategy on china. so separate from his national security, especially with connected to it in a couple of weeks. that's when we expect to see a bit more about just what a line gemini is deciding to drill in his relationship with china, which has been so controversial in recent years. and i'm sure we'll be talking to

you then. thank you so much. that's the use chip international editor, richard walker, a hi, least of 78 migraine, some drowned in more our fear missing after their boat sink some 80 kilometers off the greek coast. the coast guard says they've rescued more than a 100 people and brought them to the southern port city of color. monta survivors said it had set sail from the libyan port city of tow brook and was on route to italy. it's one of the worst incidents involving migrants in the mediterranean. this year. italy is holding a state funeral for former prime minister silvio berlusconi who died on monday at the age of 86 thousands of supporters gathered for the funeral surface in the lines cathedral. you were looking at live footage of that there. the current prime minister george maloney has also declared a national day of mourning for low. sony was also a medium oval and a soccer entrepreneur and he was italy's longest serving post for premier,

holding office in 3 different administrations. so let's get across to milan and talked in journalist sylvia mccarty. sylvia italy bring a figure who truly dominated a tale in politics. for 20 years, can you take us through today's events to hi? well, yes. so since you bernasconi state funeral has just started right now. 3 pm in the long cathedral. the drama that coughing left arkwright previously an hour and a half ago and our grades were both connie resided where he has, his villa and the, the, the they, they followed the route to the country to the cathedral of trying to leave the opportunity for people. they wanted to say good bye to do so to out milan. so 2300 people have been allowed inside the church. we're talking about high states

official. busy troy in positions and of course, sort of go nice families and friends in the square upside access as being restricted. and the capacity has been given a maximum of 10000 people, which is huge. it's half of what usually the get. so then go on with the that the square of the down can, can allow. but for security reasons, this time it was given like 10000 top. and the interesting thing of course, is that according to the law states general's our plan for all former prime minister. but the government, this time decided to proclaim national mourning for today, which is completely different from the state funeral. yeah. and that was quite controversial, wasn't that i wish to look at some live pictures of the funeral, but not everybody welcomes that decision. that to declare a national day of mourning today is not really because a national morning implies of flags at half mast, but in all public offices. it implies the flags with to

a strip of black veil on, on, on flags, and the schools that have to observe a minutes of silence. so it is a big thing. and this is the 1st time the national morning has been granted to a former prime minister who was not also president of the republic. and this was, of course, a political decision. and parts criticism is inevitable for such a full arriving figure. so we have a few presentations in the positions that did not like this decision, especially because they feel that the skinny mark, the history of it to be in a negative way. and was also responsible for many of the countries, the problems that the problems that we have today. so national morning, in their opinion, is not representing a big part of national citizens will tell us more about that. what is beryl is going to use legacy? how do you think he's going to be remembered? southern is going to is a controversial and the basic figure who was totally central to the public debate

of the past 30 years. so he's the same is very famous speech in 1994. what's called the sent in to the field of the shipping counsel, changed completely the course of history. any time politics and is most important, legacy is the way you can change it. the political communication that it change from being a uh, communication over parties to be a, to, to become a personal communication. so the leader became central. the image was everything. and this in printing has been followed by all the political leaders after him. of course he had done a script lose control of the media. he was in addition to his private tv. and firebird of going was also got his hands on the public broadcaster. and he's got a normal life in the public. the scores for some of the most rigid, i'm can migration probably save in an interview, a, b, c and, and normalize that kind of our of, of detrimental and, well,

thank you so much for bringing us up to speed there. you've been looking at live pictures of his funeral, that is still available party in the line. we really appreciate you taking the time . thank you. we're going to bring you up to speed. now, with some other world news headlines, ukraine's as russia has attacked civilian targets in the southern port city of odessa killing at least 3 people. the overnight attack damaged of business center shops and a residential building. ukrainian officials say for russian missiles were launched from a ship in the block, c. 3 of them were intercepted who was surprised when in us all. 3rd, cormac mccarthy has died aged 89. he was known for his nihilistic and violent tales of the american frontier. and post apocalyptic worlds. his books were made into feature phones, 2 in 2008 and adoption of his novel. no country for old men, one for oscars. a and e. u. lawmakers have agreed to changes in

draft artificial intelligence roles proposed by the european commission. the aim is to set a global standard for a technology that is used in everything from automated factories to herself, driving cars to chat box. and the lawmakers will now have to thrash out the details with you remember, states before the draft rules become legislation? most agree rules are essential, but there's disagreements on how strict they should be against. what, whenever computers do jobs that previously required human intelligence, we speak of artificial intelligence. i crops up and many phones from the algorithms that decide what we see on social media to programs we use to generate text or images or software that helps doctors to spot cancer and x rays. but it can also be used to supercharge this information online, or enables surveillance on an unprecedented level. so many countries are looking to regulate artificial intelligence. europe is leading the way. there are

fundamentally 2 sides to the debate. many i develop a is a concerned about having too much regulation. we need to make sure that we don't override your rates right now because that will hinder innovation. as awesome, as was to help found the german, hey i association, which represents some 400 companies. i is never good about the same algorithm can be used to those type of offer as well as to cancer detection. so it's all about what does the use case? the eyes use for it who is using a lot of innovation comes from small startups. and so the more regulation we put, the less the innovation of and see from the small companies. but while the opportunities of a i a vast. so with the risks, and that's the other side of the debate. digital rights advocates want to top rules to mitigate the risks, the artificial intelligence, machine learning, and all these. let's a complex complex algorithms and data sets. are jeff placate the biases?

that's the humans have a systems using recruitment, for example, have been shown to be biased against women. facial recognition technology has been proven to be less accurate for people of color with people being arrested for crimes. they never committed, and algorithms used to by public authorities have wrongly accused thousands of families of welfare fraud. so, you know, make, is a thinking to balance both sides of the argument. their answer regulate a i systems according to their level of risk when the risk. so limited, like when a high is used to fill the emails for spam, only a few rules apply, but for potentially life changing applications like deciding which students qualify for higher education, the rules will be strict to some applications will be banned completely. the aim is to reap the benefits of a i while limiting its risks. you for watching dw news coming up next on data
