Increased we spoke trolls in the city center and in the neighboring districts around the city center this is highly unusual ive never seen that before and if one combines that with the incidents that happened in france one would imagine that this was a precautionary measure from the Vienna Police to try and post more Police Patrol there but again that is you know for sure confirmation that this was indeed the reason that this was happening right here at managing thank you very much for your reporting for us from again.

German chancellor Angela Merkel acknowledged that the new measures are hard but said that they are necessary to limit social contacts and bring the pandemic back under control.

You know the banks. And so watch the language of the bank. Speaking the truth google news that matters g w 4 mines. As the world awaits the find out who will be the next president of the United States we take a look at how you as durbin business ties changed under donald trump and what the next 4 years could bring defending on who wins. Also on the show its day one of the lockdown light in germany fars and restaurants are staying closed in november in a bid to push the infection curve back down. And while europe raises for a head to they call it to be during this fresh round of lockdowns in on where the outbreak started the coronavirus price so seems all but forgotten. This is b a w business im done nelda my lot on in berlin thanks for joining us well this is it the week that will determine the next 4 years will it be donald trump or. Joe biden millions around the world are waiting with bated breath including german business leaders. Machines cars and parts from suppliers those are germanys top sellers in the u. S. And apparently thriving business even during Donald Trumps presidency. German Companies Sold 107000000000 euros worth of goods in the u. S. In the year Trump Took Office an amount that continued to climb this makes the u. S. The single biggest buyer of german exports. And the u. S. Is sold more goods to germany each year since Trump Took Office so does this mean that trade relations are running smoothly between the u. S. And germany not a toll according to storm aeonic a millionaire from the federation of german industries. And that if we really reached a low point during the Trump Administration we have several new trade conflicts steel and aluminum tariffs for one thing but also the conflict over subsidies in the aviation sector for example airbus boeing and the threat of Motor Vehicle tariffs is unfortunately still on the table. As it is on flicks have increased dramatically like the one in iran for one arm. Even so u. S. Companies continue to invest heavily in germany about 13000000000 euros last year in return German Companies invested about 34000000000 euros in projects in the u. S. And 29000 alone. Frank supporter laurie of the American Chamber of commerce in berlin reports positive experiences despite disagreements between berlin and washington most recently during his visits to georgia kentucky and indiana these are states that when a german he says hey i want to come and no it is ever so german go all we dont want your jobs on the country and you know for a while when a car he says i want to invest in germany theres a 1000000 programs here theres all kinds of investment banks in every state the interest. Is big. But much needs to be done to lead trade relations back to calmer waters once again. Lest one of africas 1st of all trust needs to be rebuilt and own level its not just on the executive or leadership level but also all the way down to the workers level. Than on guns but that means the dialogue that we always used to have but that was suspended under the Trump Administration would have to be reactivated we havent had a time when that and the health of that one can cut Social Security but just how willing both parties will be to engage in dialogue depends on the Election Results. And those Election Results are of course hotly anticipated here in europe thats now cross over to the atlantic for a quick start to the other side of the atlantic excuse me for a quick Temperature Check with again score to yang is that we are so close now how are markets dealing with the anticipation of elections. Now the markets are very nervous and usually historically if you look at what happens on wall street to head off an election the h. A trading sessions before Election Night are usually positive for that is a bit different this time around especially last week we had blue chips are losing about 6 and a half percent it was the worst week since march at least here on the mondays session we did show some positive optic blue chips gaining a good 400. 00 points around one and a half percent and also our prices thats also an important indicator of what investors feel is going on was the economy they had been huge drops in the price of oil in the past couple of weeks but also here at the beginning of the week up by a good 3 and a half percent markets are nervous and who can blame them really but can you tell us who is wall streets preferred candidate and why. I well i would say its not that easy to answer because if you look at certain areas lets say joe biden would win that might be good for Renewable Energy companies so sort of panel stocks for instance they could see a boost also some other Infrastructure Companies on the other side if you look at the Big Tech Companies they might have a slight favor for donald trump because lets say joe biden wins the election and the democrats also get the senate that could mean more regulation on some of the big tech names its really not that easy to answer and then we shouldnt forget it also about congress so if majority shifts over there and then think about 4 years ago when u. S. President on a drum got elected nobody really thought that we would see this huge boost in stock prices that we did get back then. Yes courts are reporting on the markets on election eve thank you very much now to some of the other Global Business stories making news. Oil prices have fallen to a 5 month low as coronavirus lockdowns go into effect across europe the fear is that more lock downs will slow Economic Growth and that demand for oil will plummet Oil Companies like b. P. And shell have laid off thousands in the wake of the pandemic. Many british banks and foreign firms that previously used london as their gateway to the e. U. Are now setting up shop in germany Germanys Bundesbank says so far 64. 00 firms have applied to expand operations or come to the country bringing billions of euros with the. Irish Budget Airline ryanair nose dived into the red from april to september that is usually Summer Travel season ryanair suffered a loss of almost 200000000 euros the coronavirus pandemic is the most challenging time in ryan air is 35 year history the company. The light at the end of the tunnel is still quite a long way off words from german chancellor Angela Merkel at a News Conference on the 1st day of germanys 2nd lockdown the aim is still to keep the countrys Health System from being overwhelmed restaurants Cultural Facilities and Entertainment Venues are now closed for a month. Its closing time at many of germanys bars restaurants and clubs the motto of the 2nd lockdown may as well be you dont have to go home but you cant stay here many Restaurant Owners and managers arent surprised like these 2 in homburg in northern germany. As we go to look we are all running a marathon it will continue over the next few months its not possible to get out of the way completely in the next few weeks its something everyone must participate and it is in full for every industry with. The new rules are less struck only in the last springs locked down schools and daycares are still open as well as retail shops but they are rules nonetheless in most states only people from 2 households are allowed to meet even in private homes and the biggest effects well undoubtedly be on the restaurant and Entertainment Industries which can now only do taiko. It was as far as the truth before the cause of this is of course a complete disaster for everyone because we were just starting to get back up and running again and now of course due to this lockdown like we are once again back at square one. For we go by google but the government is stepping in to help businesses with 50 or fewer employees will receive support up to 75 percent of their income 10000000000 euros have been earmarked for the effort and many germans are supportive of the measures. Its a pity but absolutely right when we look around europe i believe that this is the right decision for the German Government emphasizes the importance of slowing in factions to prevent overburdened hospitals and have a more bearable december. Chinese manufacturing has bounced back sharply reaching the highest level in nearly 10 years its the latest sign of recovery for the worlds top 2 economy heres another what is the return of business and will haunt the central chinese city where the outbreak began take a look.

To see apologize since we started to ease the lockdown on april 8th but the customers werent there sure that it was only in may when everyone was tested the people and families started going out because everyone was reassured that.

Abra houses in germany squeezed in new premieres just hours before the curtains came down that story coming out plus how designers are making urban spaces safe for women and decades of Cultural Exchange between u. S. Troops and germans set to end in some places that is if donald trump has his way. Welcome to arts and culture a lot of culture makers here in germany are angry at the countrys new coronavirus rules as of this week museums cinemas and feeders like dresden famous opera house are shut by government to create meanwhile passenger trains are full and Car Dealerships are still open to waiting cultural figures have called it unfair over the weekend the show did go on right until the lockdown came. At the same. But this magic flute will be silenced for at least 4 weeks was going ahead a gesture of defiance. Really is defiance we just did it i would say we will play when we can and i infuse my colleagues we are an active and vibrant company. The fight against the virus is not only being waged with artistic means Technology Helps out by exchanging 35000 cubic meters of our enough to keep exactly 331 spectators safe. Rises from the packs of the seats the the audience briefs is drawn out before it can spread in the whole. Of all the places you have to operate the systems with a degree of sensitivity because of course you dont want draft and very important in a theater no noises that just the music of. The pieces being cut to 2 hours the artists keep their distance somewhere mosques and sing past each other inch us. We know the public you know public you know 2 acts. Break where they usually hug each other and here they stretch out their hands like in the viennese punch and judy show where the play comes from and past each other. And off we go you can do it with humor we shouldnt lose our sense of humor under any circumstances or. Keeping humor despite all the compromises doing everything technically possible but still facing shutdown the decision is not easy to digest not only for the director. Of the. Take the hind demick seriously we have implemented heightening concepts thats why theres so much in comprehension in the theater brought its important to stress that this is not the result of an reflected range but i also consider this closure to be the correct political symbol in an unhealthy moment theres no Holding Hands as performers take their vows but the message is clear is the basis of society a simple will be silent for a while but rehearsals are continuing for premieres in the not too distant future. Germanys culture minister says shes pushing for a Fast Financial aid for a 1000000 and a half culture section workers affected by the new shutdown now urban design isnt just about how cities work it also impacts on safety and equality and more and more designers are working out how to make cities that work better for women would you feel safe walking here alone at night. You get a full hard every woman gets nervous when a place is poorly lit and she doesnt have a good overview of her surroundings or when she sees a group of people that she cant gauge very well im set how do women and girls feel when they move through their environments thats the question Michael Rooker and her colleagues from Plan International germany asked across 4 major german cities online and with anonymity the details of those bad experiences were turned into a map here from the city of hamburg even if a crime doesnt take place on every dark corner every night of the week the fear that it might is a problem for many women. God it is this prefer this feeling that no one will hear me im good with that even if i do call out for help no one works to me thats the 1st thing that comes to mind for example when i see a group of young men or adopt parked i think ok how can i avoid them and if i cant is they going to be someone who can help me when if they wish i was wise and couldnt have made up your mind that. Urban planning in general and traffic planning in particular was always seen as a mans job. Either carl is proof that it doesnt have to be that way shes finding a quarter for all for the city of vienna without dark corners and unsafe spaces but what does a city look like when no one has to be afraid roman plants in vienna was once a dodgy bottleneck. For the english but i dont buy for the redesign in this limited space there were lots of pas that crossed. Board will dance feed a v. It was badly laid out. There were people hanging out and pedestrians couldnt avoid them. The combination was bad. There were hidden entrances. There were high bush is one way. To plan a space for old men they had to get everyone on board and they did Business People ordinary people from the street and Homeless People all of them voiced their wishes in concerns and voted for the changes they wanted to see happen a lot of work was put in so that women and girls could feel comfortable. Taking the lead when it comes to gender planning creating a city that everyone can enjoy because it takes everyones needs into account. My colleague Melissa Holroyd has more on this. These ideas about how to make. Pretty safe theyre not just benefiting women are they doesnt Everyone Wants safer cities yeah im sure men dont want to like go to the train station in complete darkness with lots of bushes around them but they might just be able to jump out of but there are definite differences and trends that are taken into account by these so called gender planets lets call them so men drive cars a lot more than women do yet women are a lot more likely to take the train or take a tram or take a bus and so a good public transport system is something that benefits a lot of women women are much more likely to push prams so wide pathways equipment for women so they can cross each other the plan is also take into account places for women to breast feed and take care of their children and why do you think that these issues havent been addressed more already in the past well according to the world bank only one in 10 of top architects are women so yeah i mean i would imagine that a good plan or a good architect is somebody who takes into account all people perhaps thats not always the case and its not just about safety there is it now theres a lot of talk about visibility so in the neighborhood of aspen in vienna all street names and places on named after women and thats something thats also happened here in parts of berlin so in the 1990 s. Only 2. 4 percent of all signs when named after women so they decided they wanted to change that and name a lot more after women until there was parity it might seem like a banal difference but actually when you walk through these new suburbs you do get it is a nice feeling that the street names the named after women 2 percent thats nothing and now this move to bring more visibility to the streets is not just happening here in europe no recently in mumbai india their traffic lights their pedestrian traffic lights underwent a sex change so instead of having like the little men the symbol of the man we now have a symbol of women and sometimes things funny sort of hats and all. Fashion to trace is one great cute. Quite interesting it only 240 of them changed across the city and this is a small and but significant changes given that there arent a lot of women on the streets on the big cities across india and that has something to do with safety as well thanks so much for coming on the show.
