And also coming up in the next sixty minutes the World Health Organization wars of a possible ebola catastrophe in the democratic republic of congo the w. H. O. Says. Rable attacks in the east are forced to suspend operations against an outbreak there widespread mistrust of Health Workers is also hampering efforts. And dont tax are made up by the west african nation of many scraps an unpopular tax on social media apps well hear how people power forced the news government to back down. With. Iraq its great to have you along everyone we begin our broadcast with u. S. President donald straw steet shot at the u. N. He has delivered a blistering attack on globalism in his second speech to the Un General Assembly said all countries should act in their own interest and set the us would never recognize the International Criminal court trump also accused iran of so we may have in the middle east and said all nations must work to stop iran from being able to develop Nuclear Weapons the u. S. President went on to slam conditions in venezuela under that countrys socialist government while trump also announced that the u. S. Would be making changes when it comes to dollar diplomacy we will examine what is working what is not working and whether the countries who receive our dollars and our protection also have our interests at heart. Moving forward we are only going to give foreign aid to those who respect us and frankly are our friends. And we. All right like to welcome now hello Thorning Schmidt she is the former danish Prime Minister now c. E. O. Of the ngo save the children a very good evening there cant be too comforting to hear that the worlds biggest donor is making a conditional are you rethinking is your organization rethinking your reliance on american aid. Verse i can hardly hear what youre saying but i think youre asking about this a tough speech today and robert a bit of course looking at what hes saying today bob are hearing that they want to do everything you off the budget we also remembering that the u. S. Is an extremely generous though not as a lot of compassion and my Americans Society and also now the u. S. Have been the most generous to. This us so were hoping of course that with the help of the Congress Congress consider the discussion about these issues that u. S. Will continue to be a generous donor but the president has just said that he is making aid conditional is that worrying to you. Its always wearing when things are changing from a very good position which it is right now and we will of course hoping that the u. S. Will take a wide view. Of its interest but also off the compassion that has always been significant in this country so thats what we are hoping and you have to remember that even though a government not by not might not be a friend of the u. S. And be critical towards the u. S. You still want to help the people of that country be at their children the girls who want to go to school the to the people who are starving the communities who need help from the outside so hope that this whole picture will be part of what the new policy will be in the u. S. Now your organization a save the children is active on the ground in yemen you have a cold the situation for children in yemen as the worst place to be a child in the world when you heard President Trump commend saudi arabia party to this conflict does set down a sure efforts to bring an end to this humanitarian crisis. Im not sure you were asked i think it was something about yemen because i come here theres so much noise going on here whereabouts not anywhere reiterate what you are saying that we have a situation in yemen which is perhaps the worst place to be a child but right now and what we have worried about is that yemen is also the most forgotten place where there is a war going on its a very very difficult civil war and we now have a situation in yemen where children are facing severe acute malnutrition which translates to extreme under and we are seeing failed hundred thousand children who are hungry and in the risk of famine were also seeing twenty two Million People in yemen twenty two million three fourths of the human population who gets up every day and who i need of humanitarian assistance thats why were working every day sh. The children in yemen to help those children help those communities but its very very difficult because to get access to these people is very difficult when theres a walk around on how would you in conclusion how would you convince President Trump that helping children in countries who may not be friends of the u. S. Is in americas interest. Why botox keep things on a form of human shes human perspective i feel working for save the children that the the what children Needs Children famine childrens education transcends political divides and time sends everything that divides us but actually build bridges between us so i will speak to her i will try to convince every the World Leaders that whatever happens whatever the side they are in a conflict we should always look at the rights of the child to go to bed fed to be able to go to school and simply protected from violence and to not die from disease is that we could have prevented this is the rights of children across the globe and of course we are trying to speak about these rights to Global Leaders across the world and make that actionable in terms of doing everything they can to end the suffering children in syria or yemen or wherever children are suffering and i actually think that children suffering childrens rights is the bridge that will cross that political divide that were seeing in the world right now hello thorning smit this c. E. O. Of the n. C. O. Save the children thank you for spending time with us. Thank you for having me. Art bell lets get the european perspective now with a color run first associate fellow at the German Council on Foreign Relations who watch president Donald Trumps speech closely and listened closely we talked before good to have you with us again nicole lets. With the e. U. Or hardly it was hardly mentioned in his speech. Germany was singled out how worrying is it that the e. U. Didnt even feature in President Trumps address to the un it is boring because europe and particularly germany heavily dependent on us for everything that has to do with security is somehow tied to the United States and not to be mentioned really in any corporation context this speech is something the europeans should really think about. The only mentioning of germany was with respect to their. Possibly dependency on russian oil and gas where i. Pointed to the fact that germany would be completely dependent which actually is not the case but still its boring that there was no positive mentioning off the european allies at all. So lets talk a because he also made some very pointed remarks about iran also a topic where the e. U. And washington currently dont look i to i over this subject. Mr trump urging other nations to join the u. S. Towards the iraq nuclear deal the french president has also weighed in as well i believe we have the sound bite lets roll the tape. How do i really really want to help bring a real solution to the situation in iran and what is already stabilized that a lot of the strongest pressure from only one side no we know that iran was on a nuclear military path but what stopped it the two thousand and fifteen vienna record. If you and iran and france there they are sticking with the Iran Nuclear Deal but it is a tough balancing act it is absolutely and you can see from me in order to too small parts of the speech that even though the european summit agree that there has to be change in iran especially with respect to the notam program the way they want to get there is fundamentally different from what the u. S. Administration now wants to do its more interesting actually were trying didnt say he didnt say he wants a regime change but the way and what he pointed to is exactly this one says this regime to go he wants absolutely to get rid of any Nuclear Ambitions of iran and again it doesnt seem that he only wants to focus on the sanctions you want to have a Global Alliance which is interesting to really support the fake to bring down this government and this is interesting because europeans. Still believe in the deal and they still believe in talking negotiating. Providing some some tools to get more transparency into iran is the is the cost to really change something why and hid his administration surely you believe in pressure mr strums speech screams nationalism and self interest of America First policy. Is it time for the e. U. For the europeans to a massive pay for themselves become more selfreliant look elsewhere for outliers absolutely and i think its not only the year that the europeans now think for new new our other allies its also on their old allies of the United States australia canada they all have been alienated by some of the other cart. Diplomacy the trumpet ministration is supporting and i think its. Not only in europe but it also affects the small countries in asia because staved they look out to the United States and being some counterbalance and here you have a pot now which now says its not so important that the old allies are the ones we can count on that can pick completely different ones as long as they do what we want to do with them and here you see really a change and use the sea of charm which stays true to himself that he puts America First in the way he picks and chooses no new allies is barring some because it needs a complete change of culture more than it policies then most definite stray chanst it before nicole brown versus as your fellow at the German Council on Foreign Relations thank you for sharing your expertise with us. And today was also an eventful day here in berlin where chancellor Angela Merkel has suffered another blow a longtime ally in parliament has failed to secure enough votes for lawmakers for americas conservative blog voted out their problem entry leader and instead elected a vocal critic of her governing coalition the outcome came as somewhat of a surprise. Only one hundred and twelve votes for a close ally to angloamerican and leader of the partys parliamentary bloc for thirteen years words as one hundred twenty five votes for his opponent of being callous or rather low profile m. P. Known for his budgetary expertise hes now the new leader of the cd un sees you group in parliament and unexpected outcome and also a defeat for the german chancellor playing calls himself trying to downplay the significance of the vote. Im very happy about this result now we need to get back to work as soon as possible we have demanding projects ahead of us which is why we need to go back inside to finish voting now on the rest of the leadership positions and tomorrow we will do what the people expect of us to get down to business. The mention. Before the vote had urged the conservative m. P. s to support counter her candidate was also backed by leaders of the conservatives but very insistent party this see is you but to no avail the majority wanted to change afterward the newly elected leader stressed that he didnt see the result as a vote against Anglo America but the german chancellor acknowledged the outcome is a defeat. This is democracy and that means sometimes you lose a vote theres nothing to gloss over but i want the Parliamentary Group of the c. D. U. And sees you to be successful and therefore i will support ive been cals wherever possible. Lost one of her closest confidence to have been at the top of the Parliamentary Party of the conservatives since im glad america became german chancellor in two thousand and five all of position parties declared cowardice defeat a clear sign that merkels time as chancellor is coming to an end. All right id like to welcome now Nicolette Barry secretary general of one of those opposition parties the free democrats or f d p for short a very good evening it missed a key ally of chance on america go on expectantly lost his post today how surprised were you i was quite surprised because normally Parliamentarian Group the members of parliament follow the proposal of trance like merkel but this showed the surprise showed that they dont holler anymore there is more self confidence and the big question is now if this confidence will give a new politics if for now in germany the government begins to govern really because we saw for over a year no real politics no leadership or if not all the conflict between the Parliamentarian Group and the government will continue now yes they of course restart chancellor Angela Merkel are promising a new start for her government today she had to concede a major defeat caused by her own Party Members as you alluded to what do you make of all this i think this shows that the parliamentarian the members of parliament of the congo over to have no more confidence in her chancellor and also in the promise of a new politics of a restart. To be honest i think the best way were for chancellor merkel well now to ask the parliament if there is any more confidence in her government and so to stop the lies of a government or to change government now the Main Opposition Party you are the second biggest but the Main Opposition Party the far right. Has been tweeting that its over for chancellor Angela Merkel do you agree with that assessment. Its the beginning of the end i think of the transliterated of america the beginning of the end is that Welcome Development everything is worked on which gives us now a stable government because the problem is not only that there is no leadership that there is no government there there is no action for all the problems we have in the german politics but i think the big problem is that we have no more force in international and european question there are a lot of questions and challenges to take and there we need strong and we need to steer the government if its possible within our period of elections maybe with a new chancellor its good if not we really need new elections because we need a strong and stable government also for the international questions nicholai bear secretary general of the f. T. P. Thank you for spending time with us. Already weve got some breaking news just coming in the u. S. A Television Star bill a kaspi has been sentenced to between three and ten years in prison for drugging and sexually assaulting a woman in two thousand and four this judge overseeing his sentencing also declared him a sexually violent predator all that means cost me now must undergo lifetime counseling and report to authorities. Here watching the news for several lot more to tell you about including. Germanys Catholic Church has apologized to the victims of decades of sex abuse as a new report reveals thousands of assaults and cover ups germanys leading cardinal said perpetrators must be brought to justice. The World Health Organization is warning of a possible ebola catastrophe in the democratic republic of congo rebel attacks in the east have forced a w w h o to suspend operations against an outbreak there where live in east africa for the latest. But first christophe is here with the business headlines and fresh turmoil over the economic crisis in argentina lay back to square one thats right were talking term on and off the streets argentino Central Bank President luiz kabuto has unexpectedly resigned after just three months in the position this after tens of thousands of people turned out to protest against the governments plans to impose austerity in exchange for another loan from the International Monetary fund a currency crisis has seen the argentinian peso lose half its value against the u. S. Dollar this year the w. s ofelia harmes reports from. Protests on the streets of point in theory that people turned out to reject on the stairs he punches the government eight need to secure funds from the i. M. F. So my. Im a teacher and i say no to the adjustments. I want the president to change course on these policies. Like everyone else im affected by it economically whether its work shortages or increasing food prices everyone here is feeling is. That devaluation of the art in times past that went from twenty eight to forty pages per dollars increase the social tension that began a few months ago with the social and economic adjustments make by the government especially in the service and transportation area are the tents here demand the creation of new jobs increased salaries and for the government to change its economic power for it to stop asking for i. M. F. Loans. Analysts say the government has a clear incentive for wanting access to those funds as soon as possible. The political intention here is to avoid a new one back in two thousand and one two thousand and two thats why the government is attempting to give a signal to the i. M. F. To advance all the funds needed for two thousand and nineteen and two thousand and twenty. To give a clear signal that weve guaranteed funding for the next year for twenty twenty. But the question then is whether those funds will be extended for twenty twenty one. Public anger mounts tuesdays general strike could be just the beginning of a bigger wave of resistance against austerity. How much disruption is todays strike causing a chance itll encourage the government to change course. Well were not seeing the protests here that we saw yesterday but there is a disruption in the entire public transport area we dont see that theres no good with buses no trains no subway running the airports are blocked. Hundreds of flights had to be rescheduled but this this entire shutdown also from the banks and the shops is estimated to be costing the contrie about eight hundred Million Dollars nevertheless it is not its expected to be a change in the governments course mainly because the government has already signed an agreement with the i. M. F. And to keep on the clauses of this agreement it will have to keep making adjustments and to reduce inflation and bring back confidence in the markets now if youll give us a little bit of background here what actually caused this to claw end of the pier so in argentina well it will started with the and since then the peso has the elevation of the peso has been about thirty percent and this is mainly because of the security it has caused within the markets many here blame the body of the i. M. F. Of the worst crisis of two thousand and one two thousand and two and this new loan reminds them of that time a time that had left one out of five people unemployed and that one has left thousands and even millions in poverty the world bank calculates that nowadays twenty eight per cent of all argentineans live in poverty within their arms reporting from what is i think its a much. And staying with the economic woes in latin america the United States is increasing pressure on venezuelas president Nicolas Maduro by imposing new sanctions on his wife vive was the Vice President and two other Close Associates now u. S. President on trump said the world was witnessing a human tragedy the country with venezuelas socialist economy wrecked by hyper inflation and crippling shortages of everyday goods thousands of people are fleeing into neighboring countries every day. Its an almost unstoppable flood of people the exodus from venezuela has so far seen around two Million People flee the country taking grave risks almost always on foot with starvation only a few paces behind. Horrible because were really dying of hunger everything was difficult for us theres no medicine no food nothing. At all venezuelans i thinking of leaving to search for stability but we find ourselves in other places in another world thats not our own its been very tough for us. But the sheer number of venezuela and refugees is causing problems for the countrys neighbors in front year terms like could die in colombia the World Food Program is helping local governments and civic bodies give aid to the most vulnerable. Thought of commented that even the hot meals that were giving them were giving them two solid meals a day things like beans and rice and planting theyre saying you know that they havent had that kind of solid food for quite a while theyre also providing access to basic services the organization hopes that todays session of the United NationsGeneral Assembly will focus attention on the crisis. But the United Nations has got an integrated Response Plan and the World Food Program needs for example twenty two Million Dollars just to provide emergency Food Assistance for these people for the ones who really need it most venezuela is an unfolding disaster with many facets but the exodus caused by the food crisis rocking the country is without doubt one of the most urgent.

Good to see you again youre watching the i mean theres only one rocknroll and these are made headlines this hour. U. S. President donald trump has called on all nations to isolate the leadership of iran as long as what he called the corrupt dictatorship continued in power addressing the United Nations in new york he said more sanctions would follow after the resumption of u. S. Oil sanctions in early november and in another blow for germanys chancellor Angela Merkel shes lost this man her tom hardy ally volker kalar was the head of merkels conservative bloc in the parliament but now in a surprise move his own colleagues voted him out. The World Health Organization says rebel attacks in the eastern democratic republic of congo have forced it to suspend operations aimed at containing an outbreak of ebola in the region but the agency says widespread mistrust of Health Workers is also hampering its efforts to contain the spread of the disease dozens of ebola deaths have been reported in the east india or c. Says the outbreak began last month but the show is warning that the number of cases could soon rise dramatically we are no extra only concerned that several factors may be coming together over the next weeks to months to create a potential perfect storm. A perfect storm of active content conflict limiting our ability to access to dylans distress by segments of the Community Already traumatized by decades of conflict and of murder driven by a fear of a terrifying disease but also exploited and manipulated by local politicians prior to an election. Were going to talk now to debate correspondent to louise to west who is in the ugandan capital kinshasa where she is tracking this story for us good to see you a little ways a very ominous warning there a perfect storm why is w. H. O. Warning now. House teams in the city of benghazi at the heart of the. Decision been unlocked on the absolute two days because of the risk of civil unrest over the weekend more than twenty people were killed and its had by a gram group and as a result of this attack a number of residents to to the streets and sit in protests against it in security and Civil Society asprin general strike and till friday as if that is why i did go to the response has been hot some of the response has been halted for now yet it is Still Critical for them to be able to go into the communities and to monitor these people who are believed to be at rest and what impact could this have on the outbreak. So this is a very Challenging Development fulfilling that and not specific area yet you know this is the tenth in the country is quite used to dealing with ease with these upgrades but this is the last time that there is an outbreak in an active conflict zone and so it is very challenging put food in teams on the ground and now we are hearing that now new cases. Neighboring province and its really just by the border with uganda so the risk of the spread is remains very high very concerning indeed so the east to west start reporting from the ugandan capital can shasta thank you for staying on the continent in a growing number of african countries posting a photo or status update on social media is becoming more expensive all this because of a recent wave of fees imposed on internet and social media use one such country is beneath in west africa the government there recently decided to implement a tax on internet and social media use causing an uproar among citizens while the tax went into force last week but was repealed after just three days. And the government of many says it scrapped the tax because it was detrimental to consumers well for more on this remarkable story im now joined by u. W. Social media editor carl nasser always good to see you call give us the back story how that get started this was a tax and essentially meant the citizens who have to pay to access the most popular platforms like Facebook Whatsapp or twitter and this doesnt sound like a big fee was right around one euro cent per megabyte but the law also included a five percent theory on calls and Text Messages so if you take it all together according to some estimates this could have increased the cost of internet by about three or four times for many people there in the country and for the poorest people in bending that does make a big difference so this decree was passed at the end of august and immediately its also a big protest youre looking at some images right here these were offline and online protests rallying behind the hash tag toxic pommy move or dont tax my megabytes activists there claim that the law wasnt just expensive it was also perhaps intended to make it more difficult for government critics to speak out and organize online now it seems those protests have paid off in the end this law was only on the books for about three days all right why was it so short lived i can hazard a guess yeah well the protests of course helped along those lines apparently the government ended up agreeing with the critics in this case you know they said look this really wasnt a good idea in fact they released this statement over the weekend explaining some of their rationale and it says in part taking into account of the general feeling in the population and advice from phone companies the cover of the government notes that the way this decree was implemented disrupts the global sector to the detriment of consumers particularly those of modest means of the same and also listed a number of technical difficulties including the accidental cancellation of some peoples internet plans so the implementation of this was a total mess activists of course they see this as a huge victory for those protests that we saw we spoke earlier with giulio juan oshie is the executive director of internet without borders and heres what she told us. It is it is scary because its the first time that in the region west africa and i would probably say probably the rest of the come to that government. You know repeal decision or bad decision after. That it is and its met with huge stiff content from the population and this is a good side show that a lot of things are changing on the consulate the first which was her seat and he still perceived as well a continent where democracy is not with the principle of big and maybe a rare victory there in the region a victory indeed for ben you know how but the other countries yeah i mean this is really a fight this ongoing kind of this battle for an open internet in africa according to one study africa the continent on average has the highest cost of internet relative to monthly income in the world i mean thats a crazy statistic and were seeing other countries implementing internet taxes in restrictions countries like uganda kenya chad tanzania but according to julia i want to you know this results in bend in could maybe give some ammunition to activists in those other countries heres what she says we have seen people in kenya and uganda praising what had happened in the need and hope and hoping to get some lessons. From this case in order to apply them back back home and over and hopefully obtain the same type of result and of course as we know an open internet of Free Internet so important to many countries something we take for granted especially though in countries with a developing or a democracy or democracy thats under threat its such a tool for activists if its being restricted if theres taxes thats a big problem so a big victory there in between maybe some inspiration for activists across africa as well car last one thank you so much as always. Back here in germany the head of germanys Catholic Church has apologized for its failure to deal with sexual abuse over several decades and for the pain it caused cardinal reinharts marks was speaking at the publication of a report detailing thousands of cases of abuse the victims were mostly male and mostly children critics of the report as well as its authors say the true scale of the views was probably far greater than the cases identified. Sexual abuse in the Catholic Church is a deeply rooted problem in germany thats the scathing conclusion of a study that academics worked on for four years the chairman of the german bishops conference now says he wants to deal with the consequences so lets just pull is sexual abuse is a crime it has to be punished for far too long when the church have looked away hush it up denied it we didnt want to accept it. For all these failures and for all this pain i must as chairman of the bishops conference apologize and also i mean this quite personally. The authors of the study believe that structures in the Catholic Church that even facilitate the crime of sexual abuse continue to exist. The study says that over the past seven decades priests have abused more than three and a half thousand minors in germany the victims were mostly male and mostly children well over one and a half thousand priests are accused of committing those crimes. The real number is higher because of the number of the reported cases the actual number is probably much higher. The pope believes that the scandal will scare off young catholics from the church. The young face but about sexual and financial scandals in the church. Which we havent condemned enough. The authors of the study say the causes of sexual abuse in the church are far more complex. This complex its the complex interaction of sexual immaturity and of homosexual tendencies that were repressed even denied taking place in an ambivalent and partly homophobic environment could be a further explanation for the majority of cases being male victims at the hands of catholic clergy if you can manage to put the whole thing of im sixty and we spoke. Cardinal marks explained that the church wants to rebuild trust that may well be a tall order. We are all for more on this lets bring in Martin Jackie is it a result of just affairs alliston has long covered this story as this is part of your beat a martin that were going through a moment of reckoning here but it begs the question how could this have taken so long well i mean i think that what were seeing study after study is that we dont just have a pattern of abuse that we certainly do in the story slow or it and you know nobody should sort of that should be lost to nobody that as a matter of fact were not talking about sort of conceptual crimes were going on the raping of children i dont think that you know short of Something Like genocide we could be talking about something really lower in the skate of more liberal nations however what were also seeing and i think that this is really what is notable. Its a very broad system of configuration so we have a needs to touche and that essentially has been informally obviously involved in a must of cover up in this not only has helped to hide the people but has actually helped to push the crimes farther and move these people around the world so the big question here is really what he said church now in a position or has the will to do right well lets talk about that because now its all out in the open in broad daylight what will we see prosecution happening i think we have to put this into context the german case is actually of almost i mean sad to say its almost a detail in the grand scale of things i mean we have not heard anything for instance about third world countries in which like the justice systems are much weaker and the institutional framework of the state does not have the muscle to oppose the church which remains politically very powerful player however that being said it is true that this kind of cases like germany could really sort of the show of a watershed moment because it gives the opportunity for the german just is to say we are actually going to go ahead and press in church to turn in for instance evidence if this were the case then i think that were going to begin to see a change both in the mood. And its going to give at least a tool or a model for other countries to proceed on this cases and that martin we heard marks apologize to the victims on behalf of the Catholic Church on a personal note as well. But this that apology made well you know ive been ive been following this for the better part of a decade and i think that its fair to say that at this point to most listeners specially to those who are related or victims themselves these probably means absolutely nothing i mean this is just a repetition of what has become a very formulaic a saira shah in which is were sorry were going to you know we show contrition this is awful and so on and so forth however there is one thing that was very important that was said today which is that he said sexual abuse is a crime and that crime has to be punished and that actually changes the tone of the affair because in fact now were no longer talking about just contrition and forgiveness now were talking actually about prosecution whether these signals a concrete step from the church to bring in prosecutors across the globe we dont yet know but the signal after many many many decades of talking about sin its a very strong one and if youre being close attention one that should at least rates raise some flags martin gag w. s religious Affairs Analyst thank you my pleasure. And im going to hand you back over to a christoph and he has a story about the prolonged boom in the German Economy which looks like its losing steam. Risk is the topic of this years annual meeting of the federation of german industry at the gathering in berlin chancellor Angela Merkel joined politicians and leaders of industry as they threw the spotlight on everything from customs to breakfast. Some would be impressed by the fact that a german made robot which can correctly poor a glass of bavaria as famous wheat beer is no longer just a dream but theres a bitter aftertaste for some in the knowledge that this firm has just been sold to the chinese how competitive is german industry in the age of digital ization its a question thats also on the chancellors mind in her speech she made the point that german industry cant even produce the batteries for its own electric cars then yet you know b. S. About that example. If china is opening the first battery cell production here then thats nice then battery cells are being made in europe too but i dont know whether it was our dream that we cant do it ourselves in the e. U. I advocate that we develop the strategic ability to produce better resells too in the next ten years that will be extremely important. In. This growing competition from china and the usa and free trade is under ever greater threat from protectionist tariffs britain is about to leave the e. U. These are some of the uncertainties which german industry must overcome then there is the looming specter of growing xenophobia in germany to. Germany car and we need open borders we need an open mind that knows we need a globalization we are working in the in and with the Global Environment so. National protectionism is not what we really need all the uncertainties pointed to one point of certainty in germany as around the world the economic boom has passed the peak and is slowing down Industry Needs to step charting a course to get it through less prosperous times.

The goslar kaiserin is an International Prize for fine arts and this year it has been awarded to the german photographer one of tell munson Robin Merrill from our culture desk is here good to see you robin first things first talk to us about this prize is a city in kind of the middle of germany bit south of hanover and in one thousand nine hundred seventy five years so she ation for promotion of decided to establish a prize meanwhile has become a top International Prize winners have been people like joseph boys christo who run the rice dog but wrap many things actually. More recently or on the icelandic danish. And the prize is unusual in that its a ring. And its an aqua marine set in gold and the first recipient was actually the Great British skull to henry mole back in one thousand nine hundred five every ring is different they are completely unique rings because theyre made every year specifically for the prize winner well theyre actually the jewel makes them slightly bigger if its a male prize winner slightly smaller as well and i think the winners most probably dont wear the ring they most probably have its you know mantle piece or Something Like that said my. I or my right now this years winner talked to us about him wolfgang tell lies well he really is a multi town i think most people know him as a photographer but hes also also quite a musician and indeed hes quite a political activist as well he he spends a lot of time in london and the hes even written songs against break cities and made posters against breaks it up but the best way to illustrate his work is of course to see it so lets go back thirty years to the british capital where he really made his name. London in the one nine hundred ninety s. The place that made a vulcan tillmans the photography of an entire generation his images capture the counterculture brave techno parties dirty apartments he shot it all. The young people who are of generation europe happily traded in the fact. For cool brittania optimism and sexual freedom tillmans for himself into the debauchery of the club scene and documented it for the world in two thousand at the age of thirty two he won the turner prize the u. K. s most prestigious contemporary art award is famous for awarding controversial artists. More than a decade and a half later tillmans is still provocative in twenty seventeen the tate modern in london was the venue for a major tillmans exhibition. It showcased pictures from tillmans travels almost incidental but extraordinarily precise. An African Market composed like a Nineteenth Century painting. Character studies like this portrait of the architect skinny my are still life studies and the tiny coal arrangements. But it is pearl its a coal exhibition was called twenty seventeen in a time of global uncertainty stillmans wants to concentrate attention on where we go from here. But joint seascape can also be political the state were in shows churning atlantica waves to erupt for tillmans a metaphor for the Uncontrollable Forces currently at play. A very ominous thing. So i understand from a report that he already won the turner prize but hes not british i know but he was the first one who was known british to win the turner prize actually it is the leading prize for contemporary art and its awarded to an artist and i quote from their website who has contributed the most to British Culture in the last in tillmans when he won it in the year two thousand he was living and working in britain so thats why he got it there have been known brits whove won it since then he now he lives also here in berlin and you find him sometimes deejaying in techno clubs i mentioned he was a musician hes actually produced his own music just a couple of years ago released the. E. P. Of music complete with video of course and he even appears in it and sings as well lets hear him for a few seconds. Actually i said slightly well he doesnt really see. Us. Actually at the beginning of the wreck although the lyrics say he is blurring the borders between still and Motion Pictures and actually that sums him up rather well that his what he does so well i think thats also why hes managed to keep his position as one of the top sort of contemporary artists evolve time and he also keeps winning prizes and now hes won this wonderful ring from gods love Augusta Keyser ring and im sure hell win lots more prize and other accolade for a while of going tell most congratulations to him and thank you for bringing us the story around all right now before i let you go want to remind you of top story that were tracking for you this hour.
