It will focus on training and building a National Army to fight against our shabbat militants. Al shebab militants. The secretarygeneral has high hopes that the decisions made in london will have a real and lasting impact. This conference was an unmitigated success. An opportunity to defeat terrorism and to establish peace. An opportunity to allow for the buildup of National Somali institutions and lay the foundations of a normal economic and social development process. These opportunities are possible because we have in somalia a government that has a strategy that makes sense and deserves the support of the International Community. Brent that was you and secretarygeneral antonio guterres. Other challenges facing somalia, severe drought is pushing the country to the brink of famine. The sun beats down relentlessly on dusty rose of soil rows of soil. It is planting time in somalia, but the rains have not come. We dont know what to do anymore. We are suffering in this drought but we are planting anyway, we have to. God willing, we will get rain. Correspondent the Bigger Picture is staggering, more than 70,000 children are so weakened by hunger that only Emergency Assistance can save them. Almost 3 million somalis are threatened with starvation. More than 6 million need humanitarian aid. That will be high on the agenda in the somali conference in london. All these difficult factors make it extremely disturbing that somalia is heading to a real crisis in terms of people who need food and water. Correspondent some somalis have been fortunate. This woman and her six children received help in the form of cash from the International Red cross. The equivalent of 100 came just in time. Now she will not have to sell her last cow.

Correspondent no one doubts that the lofty goals to be discussed at the conference, security, transparency and democracy will be hard to achieve. Also on the list, a strengthened economy and heightened Corporation Cooperation with the International Community. There is a bit of fatigue on the subjects. The key challenge for the summit is what happens after the day after the summit. Will the issues that have been discussed be implemented live question mark . Correspondent holding out hope for rain, he is determined to it is the kind of struggle people in somalia no all too well. Brent now to the United States, donald has launched a scathing new attack on the fbi chief he fired just days ago. He called james comey a showboat. The bureau was currently investigating ties between trump, his campaign and russia. Correspondent the hearing was supposed to discuss worldwide security threats but that was it dismissed by comeys dismissal. Do you believe that the january 2017 Intelligence Community assessment accurately characterized the extent of russian activities in the 2016 election and its conclusion that russian intelligence were reonsible for the hacking and leaking of information and using this information misinformation to influence our elections. A yes or no will suffice. Correspondent then attention turned to fbi director Andrew Mccabe and whether or not he had been did you ever hear director comey tell the president he was not the subject of an investigation . Rookie mistake, im sorry. I cannot comment on any conversations the director may have had with the president. Correspondent democrats suspected the president sacked comey to head the investigation into russian collusion in the election. We are still waiting on the final conclusion of that investigation. I think any time we have somebody interfering with our election, that would be considered a problem and i think the president would certainly recognize that. Correspondent the Trump Administration insist that stories about rushing solution are a hoax stories about russian coolllusion are a hoax. Brent lets bring in our washington correspondent. The more details emerge, the more it seems contradictions are coming to light. So true, brent. There is a lot of contradicting information. You remember the day when donald trump fired comey. The reason he had to do that or why the white house said the president had to do that, there was this recommendation coming from the Deputy Attorney general and also from the general himself who said comey made so many mistakes last year and this year. You should get rid of him and fire him and today we heard from President Trump himself basically he gave an interview saying i was going to fire comey anyway. So how important was the recommendation . I will give you another example, yesterday the circuit of the donald trump, members of his team said donald trump had to fire mr. Comey because of the fbi is so important an organization and mr. Comey had almost no support within the fbi so for that reason we need a new start. We need somebody else who is going to be the director of the fbi. And today there was a this hearing in the senate and the acting director of the fbi that no, this is not true. Comey enjoys huge support within the fbi. So what is true . We get a lot of contradicting information coming out of the white house and this hurts the credibility of the donald trump. Brent President Trump said that he fired comey to expedite the investigation into Russian Election interference but hasnt the decision invited even closer scrutiny . Right. This is completely true. He probably hoped that when he is going to fire comey that democrats who do not like comey, that they are going to applaud. But they are going to say this decision is ever do but this is not true. Its true that the democrats said and Hillary Clintons the reason why she lost the election was comey and his press conference just a couple of days before the president ial election but democrats today hate even more that the donald trump fired comey. To put it in a nutshell, this decision this discussion is not going away. The fbi is going to investigate and the senate is going to investigate as well. Brent our washington correspondent on the story for us in the u. S. Capitol. They do very much. Now to france, Emmanuel Macrons startup Political Party has announced that name of several hundred candidates to do battle in the french parliamentary election next month. His partys general secretary revealed a list of candidates just a short while ago. Half of them are complete newcomers, making their first foray into politics would send to the president mcron.

Justine honre is convinced of that Emmanuel Macron will be able to reform french politics and put an end to cronyism. She is exhausted but relieved her efforts were worth it. She campaigned to day and night for macrons movement. He may have been elected, but there is no time to rest. Under its new name, the party has to make gains during the election in june. We have to get an absolute majority. Well have to fight, but we are used to that and get at. Good at it. Correspondent having studied veterinary medicine, she is renouncing that part to become a member of parliament herself as part of a new movement that considers itself neither left or right. We do not do politics like the others do. We dont sit around and wait until we get elected as if by right without coming into contact with people. We meet local people, we do things in a constructive and coherent manner, according to our principles and our values and that is what works. Correspondent but while justine believes macron when he says he wants to support women in politics, this womens rights activist is not impressed by the president elect. His wife plays a traditional role. His campaign did not seem to know that women exist except for one or two came through the door. Why should he be any different . There is absolutely no reason for that. Correspondent but justine already sees a difference in macrons leadership style. She says is that he proved to during the campaign that he was willing to accept criticism from below. She says women simply have to insist on more equality. She also thinks she has good chances of entering his inner circle. I think i found a foothold, otherwise they would not have let me speak ahead of macron at his last paris meeting when it was clear he would be president. Correspondent justine honre, part of a new generation of french politicians marking france towards any future. Brent you are watching dw news. Still to come, we dont need no education.

Correspondent there was a point where people seems addicted to those disappearing pictures. What has gone wrong for snapchat and its model . For once most of the social Media Companies depend on revenue from Online Advertisement and that is dominated by facebook and talking about facebook with their instagram servers, they are going right where snapchat tried to get their Customer Base so it is competition partly from facebook but also snapchat is not able to materialize the users they have into revenue or profit.

The hotel and Restaurant Workers Union demands Church Employment practices this man has not had any holiday for years and the conditions do not sound very christian either.
