taliban and they are trying to secure the city but we will see what will happen next. right hitting stateside a hulking contest in the u.s. has revealed that it doesn't take a top notch russian computer expert to get into america's election infrastructure it turns out an eleven year old can do it as more. to learn more about the twenty hacking contest that's what the link says and yes it's from a real website and the contest surreal to it's for kids and it's not being held in russia what this is america anyway meet the winner eleven year old audrey you need . to be me we can cause in the our own name if we want to make a living we won the election and it just took her ten minutes to hack a replica of an election office website in one of the battleground states. these
2:32 pm
are members of congress they work hard to approve budget grants to sort out election cyber security the one for twenty was three hundred eighty million bucks these are child hackers i mean contestants they tap their keyboards to prove that within minutes america's election systems are a piece of garbage thirty five out of the thirty nine youngsters taking part this year were able to do just that so how come there haven't been any warnings for a grown up specialists well actually there have always been the milling machine is a two different states and it's extremely easy to get an advantage because this time it's mostly so let me show you how quick it is that's a little under two minutes. you don't need any totals to do that. and now i have. full advantage it looks like you don't have to turn pro to be
2:33 pm
a meddling master and outsmart security efforts worth hundreds of millions of dollars don't bother guessing hole be the ones to take advantage come november we've already been told many times there's no doubt russian hackers ahead of the midterm they know it was arrogant and security of. the russians are targeting members of congress for us. midterm elections are just around the corner and russia's attacking teams to haunt the united states russian election interference in the twenty eight hundred midterms the russians have not reduced their hacking it's even the first thing the prodigy's at the conference will tell you. which could also be a great excuse when someone asks the suits why the systems vulnerable to say the least by the way when the good will hackers look back at their previous conference they wrote if russia can attack our election so can others iran north korea isis or
2:34 pm
even criminal or extrude must groups because let's face it if hacking an american election is child's play perhaps it's time the guys in charge did their homework on where the real threats are. germany turkey slam washington over punishing new trade tariffs that story and much more besides right after this.
2:35 pm
2:36 pm
and washington's increase pressure on the iran nuclear deal the u.s. has increased rates on steel and aluminum for europe on its key nato ali turkey as well german leaders are warning of wide ramifications. we won't let washington dictate to us with whom we can do business. this trade was slowing down and destroying economic growth and creates a new uncertain suze and interesting statements that peter altmire the economy minister gave to one of the big sunday newspapers here in germany and what we can infer from that is that this is the exact opinion of chancellor angela merkel mrs merkel never want to come forward with a statement unless she really really has to and of course peter altmire being one of her most trusted cabinet members he was the head of the chancellery for five years between twenty thirteen to twenty eighteen so what he says can be really taken is the word of angela merkel what is merkel and or germany says is usually in
2:37 pm
lockstep with what brussels has to say on these matters so we can really get ghana that this is the opinion of the european union but it's not just the e.u. berland mrs merkel or mr altmire that have issues with tariffs trump and trade at the moment in turkey well they've seen a much tougher reaction in fact on sunday while the german economy minister was speaking to sunday newspapers over the weekend president ed the one we're speaking to must crowd saying that if this trade war wasn't well backed down from from the u.s. side then well turkey could start looking for allies and friends elsewhere who. we will respond to the one declaring a war of trade to the whole world. new markets finding new corporations and allies . at the crux of the problem between and washington is the pastor andrew bronson now he's been in custody for two years in turkey so far there's
2:38 pm
a deadline set for his release of last wed in state that wasn't met and when that wasn't met on friday trump brought in new tarrasch say against turkish exports of metals now that means twenty percent tariff on. being exported from turkey into the united states and fifty. percent on stale now what that scene is on monday the turkish lira dropped to a record low against the us dollar and the words from mr over the weekend of prompted well quite colorful way of saying no to the u.s. dollar across turkey.
2:39 pm
but ultimately what a trade war creates is uncertainty and uncertainty is kryptonite for business in a trade war in the end everyone loses in everyone's economy takes a hit and not is why we see in the reaction from this side of the atlantic. to the middle east where the israeli prime minister is digging in over another large scale protest in tel aviv against the recently passed nation's state law which are a bit released claim makes non jews second class citizens benjamin netanyahu sais that rallies underline the need for such a law. we received clear testimony of the urgency of the nation state law we saw palestinian flags in the heart of tel aviv we heard the calls with blood and fire we will redeem palestine many of the
2:40 pm
demonstrators want to repeal the law of return cancel the national anthem fold up our flag and cancel is rather is the nation state of the jewish people now it's clearer than ever that the nation state law is necessary we passed this law and we will uphold it. well saturday's protest was the second in as many weeks and saw tens of thousands of arabs and jews turned out in tel aviv they carried bombers in both hebrew and arabic appealing for democracy equality and for the law to be abolished some scientists said resist apartheid. well the nation state law was passed last month it's similar to a constitutional amendment and recognizes israel as the homeland of the jewish people it also underlines the quote you know unique right excuse me to self determination but it also don't grades are a bit from being an official language critics say the lord not only undermines
2:41 pm
fragile government he's of a quality in israel but opens the door for open discrimination against jews. this law is trying to incite in the state a war between brothers a war between the jews and the arabs and we will not accept it we have lived together and we will die together in this land because i'm not asking for a right i deserve to have these this is what i deserve a someone who lives in his country i'm not scared of anything but i fear that this law being a basic law will drag other loans from which we will suffer this is the law is going to. be on the language. again so if you thought in this learned. people are obvious and we can't agree for this law well there's been a lot of reaction to this here is how our guests view that controversial legislation. this law actually doesn't change anything for the citizens of israel who does not discriminate or take any rights through and the law simply says that
2:42 pm
israel is the nation state of the jewish people it which has been long overdue and this law is a basic law and that means it's constitutional which means. apartheid state for jewish people only well i think that what you just heard is the exact example of why we need it you have a person who is not an israeli citizen these bashing my country in israel all citizens are equal under the law the third biggest party in the parliament is their party what i find shocking is that people who condemn the bare existence of the state of israel in any border are saying that we are and which i think is just appalled this law says that this land is only for half of the population and the other half would be discriminated against it does not identify the borders of israel which means that this system of discrimination includes not only palestinians inside but also by the students in the west bank and there's a sort of. injured then scenario where sometimes people mistakenly called the west
2:43 pm
bank it's a you didn't run it's a jew free state as a jew not allowed to be there this law does nothing about you then scenario unfortunately corrupted me with evil and is really loved in some area just doesn't touch it that's not true do you agree that we should have a palestinian state or not there finitely not but i think when we have a new thing is that you want another said but you also are you going on right now israel is telling me i can't have citizenship but he wants to continue to occupy my land and he says i cannot have a state and we cannot have a two state solution and yet he speaks that it is a democracy. royalist in a strange rejoice did you know you can order your very own free portrait of the queen all you have to do is contact your local m.p. sign up for the nationhood programs goodie bag.

classics part of american consciousness now all over a stone's latest project was to film an extensive series of interviews with russia's library. i caught up with the director himself to talk about the experience i. have you with us today hope you're having a great trip in moscow has just got here so your book compared to your extensive interviews with is published by you called the good interviews for day to day shows climax to my strange life as an american filmmaker climax your career this is the best thing you've ever done. you know i have to take the point of view that it could be the last film too you never know time is seems more precious when you get a little bit older and as a filmmaker it's a very young profession you know and very few and america especially it kind of goes fast you don't get off in another chance so i felt like this was a kind of a climax not that it's
2:50 pm
a feature film but that it's the most safe at this time in history the most forbidding character to american media to american and western europe to i think forbidding kind of. cross into that into another world and i'm glad i got here i mean i did mr castro and i did mr chavez i did mr arafat's and also as a yahoo as a character when he was out of office back when he was out of office he's now in power forever it seems but these characters all led me to this moment with mr putin . and i frankly i enjoyed the meeting him i met him originally on the at the on one of my trips to russia because i was interviewing snowden a lot we were doing research with ed and a lot of the movies soden was represents what ad this point of view was so getting
2:51 pm
that information took time and we came back and we're trying to be accurate the last scene of the movie was shot in moscow so after a by what i met mr putin which is in the back room of a theater in moscow a play an old like hundred sixty s. play he was attending to promote folkloric culture. we met the back and i asked him about mr snowden and he gave me the russian version his version of what happened which was fascinating different than what we had been told in the public. newspapers and so forth but anyway long telling the story quickly is getting back to the end of the movie snowden we shot in moscow to a weekend with with ed and then we turned around a few days later we went to the kremlin and we shot mr putin over three days and. at that time we didn't know if this would go on who was simply you know take it as
2:52 pm
it comes like you're doing and play it by ear it was spontaneous i gave melissa quick questions i was areas that i was going to cover but it wasn't limited he didn't say it was totally spontaneous i didn't have any limitation or all the way to us and as you can see every day i look different he was always the same he looked very together i was sometimes. can play who was blowing in the wind. i guess i changed appearances several jobs but. in other words i'm the opposite of american anchor i don't look like megan kelly i don't look like you even. sam that's a compliment. i know what kind of great effort it takes to get that kind of accent but. that's not easy i mean a lot of russian journalists and top journalists don't get that kind of access right and i know how much effort it took you to make this happen and make it come together and then the minute this comes out it was so talked about in russia and
2:53 pm
obviously the whole american press right away lashed out are you saying yourself flattering to certain that you're about entry or just want to do you care it is again under under your skin because that's a lot of work you did with putting it was a lot of work but i didn't consider my i never said i was a journalist and i didn't pretend to be what i well that this is a book. a movie a film director you know me from the films and you may know me from some of the past interviews i did with the public figures but i'm not pretending to be anything else i know you said in response that you know you don't have an opinion about anything that you're doing that you're nurture all will the opinions of james because then i'm talking about the putin movie but at the same time i watched a series you said a lot of flattering things about you know do you feel like you manage to stay objective and neutral. i don't buy it and i think if you see the movies i do it's not good but the high try to stick to what i feel is the truth and i don't take i
2:54 pm
didn't say one false word to mr p. at all i did say what i meant when i said it when i said to him and one of the i think one of the first the things i said was it strikes me that you're this you're a son of russia because when you came into the country at a time when it was just in the dumps it was one nine hundred ninety nine two thousand the place was a mass. the real economic story and what you did was you turned things around no one can take that away from you and i think that's one of the reasons he's still popular is it because he brought a sense of place destiny a sense that we we are russian we have much to be proud of we have a history and he really is certain the concept of a sovereign country which was crucial because russia was not a sovereign country from approximately ninety one two to two thousand it was losing that sovereignty completely the united states was and other people were walking all over the place and basically monitoring whatever they want and they were all over
2:55 pm
the the nuclear certainly in the clear industry but look the point is that putin gave russia something that is really important in this world and we can get back to that because that's the bottom line is we need her in the world we need a resistance to exist to the call of the dominion of the united states i know that you know on talk about politics but this is a very happy type of question you have cited people. who have done movies castro chavez put in them this are strongman you know obviously have attraction to strongman do you feel like this is diffusion of politics leaders like that they're very strong uncompromising. very controversial in many ways or should politics be about dialogue and political correctness well it is about the long term and these men all were open to dialogue and you can argue who did who said what to who but the point was that castro tried to negotiate with the united states for a long time and he was rebuffed not only was your buff he was insulted in the they
2:56 pm
tried to assassinate him many times so you know where what is dialogue dialogue is important and mr chavez certainly had a point of view he was if you remember he shook obama's head and he really has hoping that there was going to be a new approach from the united states didn't happen so it is about dialogue it's about compromise politics and above all if i. give you an overall opinion of mr putin he said he's the ultimate negotiator you wear you out he really believes in talking out everything there's no there are certain points of interest for every country has its national interests and he constantly hearts on this russia has its national interests and he's open to the gut to negotiating anything but those national interests and when you cross the line. he will let you know as you know i pushed him whatever people say i pushed him and certainly i could feel his irritation when i was pushing him hard on the democracy question on this the question of his succession in what's going to happen next year there were times i
2:57 pm
riled him more than once but i am concerned and the reason i undertook the series was i was very concerned about going back to my relationship to russia what happened to the american russian relationship that had existed in two thousand if you like your film can change american perception and put all because in her column dolly it has to some degree. more than several million people saw it which is and this is on a premium cable channel showtime is not on a national channel like in russia so you have a limited prescription audience that it was seen and seen again but it was also shown in europe in a lot of places and we had a very good debate in france i was public television channel three in france and. you heard vedra in the x. foreign minister of a mr beattie all defended the movie very well i thought against and several other
2:58 pm
people against the opposition it was the debate was very french but in other words in europe in germany france these things matter italy very important now whether things change as a result it's hard to tell because the recent leaders you know the united states congress which stuns me voted almost unanimously for sanctions to be expanded against russia. this happened recently so it seems to be almost a reaction to trump. as putin says a domestic politics you feel like trump is trying to sort of way emulate leaders like putin behalf he is i'm not sure i can't tell you what is in donald trump's head i don't think anyone can and if they tell you that i don't think he's stupid i think he's a very sharp guy and i'm sure he wrecks respects the. he may misunderstand mr putin too so i don't know but he certainly hasn't lived up to the idea that he gave many people during the campaign that he was against any foreign of the interventions
2:59 pm
that he thought the united states it squandered its resources its assets in wars abroad so we there was his thinking that it would change but it hasn't changed not because of his willpower it that because he hasn't been able to get anywhere in his administration it behaves been stuck in gridlock from the beginning opposition has been severe also because of russia now because no let's can i ask you really that has been the excuse the has been attacked profoundly for russia there's no evidence as yet and i've seen indicates that russia is in any collusion with mr with donald trump i mean he's not this meant suring candidate and i thought there was a surprisingly stupid story but it got a lot of traction in america which worries me and shows you how frankly stupid the american voter can be if you believe that i don't believe most of them do but i could i don't know that the polling is off on it it doesn't make sense if you're saying no one that is elected gets to change the system does it even you know what
3:00 pm
for in america yeah well that's what mr putin says at the end of the interview if you remember he says he's been through four presidents and i asked him what's changed and he said basically nothing. so he's indicating that there's a bureaucracy he called it a bureaucracy in america they call it a deep state a bureaucracy that has been resistant to change certainly the policies towards russia have for the most part united states been highly negative since one thousand nine hundred seventy since the revolution when mr wilson president wilson set american troops to siberia to join the british expeditionary force.
