sounds important maybe but not as important as the economics of the summit i think that north america europe japan and all the nations have never been as inclusive as they are now all told by the way of course there are reactions to certain things like the migration crisis but the people are used to it now much more than before and we are fighting inclusive it's not a time for crusades anymore. a delegation from russian cyber security company casper ski lab took time out to talk to us about the gathering and the issues they face. i would say the trend from the last few years and actually one of the main topics of this year in dollar states fragmentation of the world unfortunately it's happening there is a global geopolitical tensions and fights between countries and it backfires private companies far as us i would say that the pressure in the united states is enormous it's the biggest it's really disappointing for some reason and surprising for me that that private company can be limited in its operations in the contre with no reasons with no facts just by a decision of the us government it'

there's a growing threat from islamic extremism in europe based in the balkans and the german government is keeping it to itself that's according to a highly classified report that's being seen by some left party m.p.'s the media. the german federal government cannot discount the basic threat posed by individuals and splinter groups in the islamist scene in bosnia herzegovina the hush hush document goes as far as to claim that there's a direct link between radical islamic groups in bosnia herzegovina and people in germany the true nature of what this heavily classified report says doesn't come out parts of it were redacted from the copy that was shown to the left party the federal government has been trying to downplay the growing islamist threat in public furthermore it's entirely unacceptable that the government continues to cover up the role of the gulf states my colleague charlotta bin ski traveled to bosnia herzegovina back in december she witnessed firsthand the situation on the ground there regarding islamic radicalization the local imaam is telling me that some of the residents h

defense budget is the highest in europe and the issues are outlined by. being addressed it's also worth pointing out that when they're not asking for more money members of the u.k. military tend to be somewhat more blahs a about the whole russia thing lost some of the venue and secretary michael fallon he joked that most scared was probably jealous of citizens new state of the arts and crafts carrying because russia's is pretty dilapidated and at the same time today you've got the u.k. foreign secretary boris johnson he's meeting for talks with his u.s. counterpart rex tillerson they're going to be talking about iran north korea and syria russia isn't on the agenda french prison guards have launched a nationwide strike over security fears that story much more still to come your watching or to interest. plenty. plenty. plenty. plenty. plenty. of dropping bombs brings peace talks forcing you to fight the battles but don't believe that you stopped by to tell you that the because of the public but i felt a little pointlessly. telling me you are not cool enoug

analyzed throughout europe never in russia the result over the last four years a biathlete has never tested positive. point in the is a by athlete who brought a gold home from sochi and he and his team mates. or leaders of team russia and were both two main hopefuls for winning medals and south korea as well now they're both world champions and in all of their years competing neither has ever tested positive for doping and that's one of the reason the the decision as an injustice the tone of the statutory will not please everyone that's obvious but there are still questions about the integrity of the decision makers since when can we can do this in sportsmen to punish the guilty is obvious to ban the russians that for the rest the i.o.c. has promised to publish the full list of eligible athletes on sunday just under two weeks before the start of the games leaving an appeal unlikely and that means that a number of russian athletes who are still reeling from the fact that they will not be able to compete under their own flag will now be hit with another blow others said to be excluded

is also being called to account in europe the new ambassador to the netherlands has come under fire from journalists the very first news conference there he refused to defend previous remarks on the influence of icily in europe and these not the only one trying to avoid the procedure as we pointed out in the week. but it doesn't fall. by issues that are not revisited you should know last year you said this is important is that something you believe your story. or not this is. why don't you i'm sort of question my answer because this is nothing works just one piece of the evidence you have to out on such crap. to use cluster weapons and this is not. good just pumping your wife but i guess there are no yes. up and. straight ahead a bad message you certainly will want to see a false alarm about an income. in a why and what if a cover this weekend will tell you how that happened after the break. what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. wanted. to do like to be the survivor before you know more people are. inte

before they have many difficulties in coming together on certain issues including tax the military europe and of course the refugee crisis and immigration although we understand that this blueprint has come together with the new green between the parties that they would limit the number of family reunifications with refugees to just one thousand per month but of course it still needs to be voted on by the social democrats and of course there's also about whether the german people have an appetite for yet another grand coalition one poll recently by a german public broadcaster suggested fifty two percent of germans didn't want another grand coalition and we can see that perhaps in the election results just as . three months ago when. you see yes you. all saw their support ebbing away to some of the smaller parties which is why we've been in this position in germany more than three months since the election and no coalition however we do know that the party say they satisfied with the talks these will now proceed to the next step which is to get approval for formal coalition talks and it co

that will europe the u.s. is number one and then followed by china russia switzerland and norway now the europeans are saying you know what if trump's going to do this they will retaliate and guess what they don't have all their eggs in one basket they're actually there's some stats that say that china is creeping up and maybe has even surpassed the u.s. as a trading partner when it comes to the e.u. and they're working on plenty of deals we know that they have a free trade deal with canada that's in place now japan as well as they're working with latin america and they're looking at new zealand and australia so for donald trump to do something like this to be very radical when looking at your europe not only could he hurt the european economy but can obviously hurt the u.s. economy as well yeah and you know europe's really high on getting together with china on that one belt run one road initiative alex so there is that they'll certainly increase trade now there was a meeting not in toronto but up in montreal

hopefully nobody hopefully europe will be its own master but at the moment europe is still very much. under the american wing and i think that the long term effect will also be to see people like schroeder don't forget schroeder who is anti the war in iraq etc coming more and more to the fore and convincing the most important sectors of the german economy and even the french economy after that because of the franco german axis that being so hostile toward russia is simply going to weaken their own economies because russia is a very strong independent economy so long term if this policy goes on and i'm not sure it will depend what trump does or whether he he he proved to be more stable goes on then it will it will strengthen russia that's all i don't see it helping the the u.s. military industrial complex by the way one very important final point is another excuse for these for these sanctions of course is the. alleged meddling in the us elections i've never seen such hypocrisy from the arch medlar of the last century which is the united states which is meddled in not only meddled in f

security order in europe that is now more and more put into question and. the torch in conflict in two thousand and eight was a first indicator of fact and in of age a crisis in or around ukraine is is another symptom of this underlying fundamental problem that we face in european security well if i may be bringing back to the question that i just posed about whether you think the conflict can expand beyond the current war theater i think it's clear that. they are sort of two tracks to that conflict one is can i think on the battlefield and they the other one is by inflicting economic and diplomatic pressure and i'm sure you know that the united states is about to introduce another round of sanctions against russia which ukraine is highly supportive of though formally speaking it has nothing to do with ukraine do you think that kind of economic pressure that kind of remote. well i wouldn't call it war but still the efforts to apply pressure to each other do you think it could have a direct impact on the battlefield for me the relevant. sites. we have on the

so davos it's always an interesting time of the year merkel and both called for a stronger europe and rejected trade protectionism is that a direct challenge to trump's america first agenda yeah i think it is but the problem is there are overstating the positions that are taken by the parties coming in trump is not in protectionist mode and he's not in america only mode what he's doing is essentially undoing the maneuvers and the agreements and the arrangements made by his predecessor over the last eight years which were actually quite punitive to america in economic terms america was practically kneeling in handing over its spare cash to people in other countries to do it as they wished and the american people were deeply upset by that and drum pez promised the people in the course of his winning this election that that's one of the things he's going to repair is our needless bowing and scraping to foreign countries as demonstrative lee showing that we are not better than them by allowing them to rule us in an incautious way and trump i think is leaning back towards freedom and less

that europe is headed toward russia so we already reached energy security it's only the question who has you know the biggest share the market almost one hundred people have been killed in afghanistan's worst terror attack eight months after the break. if i were of public opinion i would seek to have myself and all of my friends in my family and leaders at the local level to a national level be arrested by israel what you need to do is hold a mirror up to the israeli people and say this is what you're creating this is the reality on the ground we're not using violence we will not cooperate with the occupation anymore i plead with the public opinions we do each of the nonviolent struggle because if you use violence you will never get the support of the israelis or the world. but you should. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so if you want to be president. or somehow want to be rich. if you're going to be this is what the three of the more people are. interested always in the way. they should. welcome back as sec'y ramps up its military offensive in syria clashes

types of prisoners that they dealing with they say that in some prisons like that largest prison in europe that sometimes the inmates refuse to go back to their jails and this is a prison with a high number apparently of radicalized inmates so these are just some of the concerns that the security guards have they also say that they are very very understaffed with the suggestion that sometimes is not largest prison in europe there is only one security guard for every ninety inmate now i've been talking to some of the security guards would be lining the other concerns. natalia to the our work is very dangerous where with tins of aggression and insult we experience violence which is not taken into consideration by the government. it has become more and more difficult for us to act i've seen physical aggression towards my colleagues every day but it happens every time we open the doors to support the new city we denounce the working indications of our colleagues in the prison the security conditions the numerous acts of aggression against them we want salaries to be increased for those who fac

allowed to decide who their allies are and which ones aren't because it's always complained in eastern europe that countries are allowed to ally with enjoy nato if they want but serious not allowed to ally with iran who would accept they're going to go oh i think we need to explain to our viewers who might know what you don't use in the host today what happened in syria what happened was a turkish invasion. it is a fact or it is a fact that the russian forces have removed themselves from the area that. but it was a response to what do the united states claim that they are going to create the huge so-called border security consulting the turks without even consulting the. sport you could there's no two can indeed go from the former you can best of them to syria peter ford who said the forwarding which i think is pretty direct the united states has been trying to prevent syria from stabilizing itself as huge interest over in state now they see and way off partially implemented by encouraging the formation of a kurdish state and so their response to it was of the. essential i think we have to ex

that europe is not at all russia so if we already reached energy security it's only the question who has you know the biggest share the market almost one hundred people had been killed in afghanistan's worst terrorist attack for eight months more on that after the break. all of this do you suppose to. put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected. so you want to present. something you want us. to do right for us this is what. is reasonable people. interested in the law. should. to. using the breast. over. to legislate. elice. just. welcome back a taliban suicide bomber has killed at least ninety five people and injured more than one hundred sixty in the afghan capital kabul local journalist so ari reports . we understand at this stage that the attacker was in an ambulance he had said he had a patient and that he was stopped at the second checkpoint by the police force the attack took place right in the heart of kabul this is not very far from the swedish embassy from the european union from the indonesian embassy and from the high peace council which is down the road the at

news conference there is because he refused to defend previous remarks and the influence of i saw in europe and he's not the only one trying to avoid the press. got it wrong because it falls right where you should go no revisiting you should not see your roots to this is important is that something you believe you just want to. go out of. why don't you answer the question was answered the question this is not gonna work stress or this is not an end you know i answered questions. we're going to use cluster weapons in yemen this is not the question of good use proofing your life but. yes or no yes. both up and down the hour. i. still to come on the weekly for you a false alarm about an incoming missile sent people in hawaii running for cover this weekend we'll tell you how it happened after the break. put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. some want. to go right to the press this is what before three of the more people. interested in the water. here's what people have been saying about rejected in the. early show i go out of my way to. the r
