a take a step toward equality for the 1st time iran will officially have a female powerlifting team and take part in international competition for women already competing in the sport it's a welcome and over g.-o. initiative. i'm claire richards and welcome to the show we began here in berlin where belarus is exiled opposition leader svetlana to cannot escape has been holding talks with the german political leaders including chancellor angela merkel took an all scale is calling for european help to force new elections in belarus following august a disputed poll since then the country has been gripped by mass opposition protests and of violence a government crackdown and taken out and taken off scale once a germany to help. play a leading role in ending the unrest. this meeting at the german chancellor and berlin is crucial for. she has high expectations of angle americal as she told d.w. ahead of the talks germany is. most powerful countries in the world extremely important because we need. help in mediation negotiations with authorities and we think that. it's really helpful in this situation. america has deep sympathy for the protest movement as a former citizen of east germany she's lived through a peaceful revolution which gives her a special understanding of belarus. the money mood to go and see what i see the courage of these women who take to the streets to call for freedom and an end to corruption i can only say that i'm amazed i find it truly impressive. thank you. women have persisted turning out despite the ongoing violence of the regime to have nor is continuing her own fight from exile did we see her comrade maria kolesnikov was put in prison for her own convictions. the protesters want alexander lukashenko who has been in power for 26 years to step down they claim the recent elections that saw him. were rigged. germany and the e.u. agree they've imposed sanctions on look at those inner circle but not against the dictator himself to know scale has called for the sanctions to be extended to look at others many german lawmakers agree including in the green party. we need to make it clear that we stand in solidarity with protesters we must offer individual humanitarian aid to people who are under threat and of those who seek help from us because they are tortured or beaten by the regime. who on monday. thank the community in berlin she likens her country to east germany in 1909 saying hers is a nation that wants to tear down its walls where at long last people want to make their own decisions about their lives. and political correspondent simon young has been following those talks we asked him what sort of supports that line into k'naan scale hopes to get from the german government i think that the opposition are all strong as well for practical support support for civil society organizations for independent media groups which have both been suffering and finding it difficult to operate during this crisis so that's one thing more widely of course those that call for europe and other friendly nations to become involved supporting dialogue between the location go regime and the opposition that's a cold that's been repeated again and that was our correspondent simon well there's another political crisis in another former soviet republic kurdistan's prime minister has resigned following days of protests in the capital bishkek there are reports that the parliament immediately elected back bar and i was replacement from the opposition only for him to be forced to flee as angry protesters stormed the hotel where the emergency session was being helps as far as a comes amid increasing chaos and unrest following a sunday's parliamentary elections here you can see protesters forcing their way into government buildings and destroying images of pro russia president so ruined by jean backoff official results are from the vote handed big gains to the president and 2 establishment parties those results have since been an olds. earlier we spoke with a journalist in joanna lewis who's covering events in kurdistan from neighboring kazakhstan and asked for her assessment of the situation the situation is very fluid things are moving very very shocked i mean the latest developments surrounding the reported resignation of the prime minister and attempts by one faction to appoint a new prime minister that wasn't accepted by evidence. aye all those involved in the protest simply tell us how confused the situation is no one is really in charge although the president himself so don't buy john beccles that he's still in control however his whereabouts are unknown and we haven't seen anything often beyond a video address when he's from an unknown location earlier today so what we can see is that some kind of public fight for power going on as a vacuum seems to have much there's no sign yet that president john back up or is preparing to resign but that's one of the protest as key demands and some of them are out on the streets again tonight in the capital bishkek robet not as in. as great numbers as they were last night when they stormed the presidential palace in the parliament in protest at these tainted election results which have now been and all was journalist as you analyst there let's turn it back to germany now and its efforts to curb the spread of the corona virus infections are on the rise especially here in berlin authorities have pointed to illegal parties helping drive up the rates and on tuesday the city an ounce to new curfews for bars and cafes as well as stricter rules for meeting in groups. and went out on the streets of berlin to find out how people are reacting. welcome to germany's new flashpoint berlin after months of staving off the worst of the pandemic the german capital has become the frontline in the country's fight against the virus half of all of germany's high risk areas are located here in this city including the district of. gatherings with little sign of social distancing are a common sight here most of the new infections are among young people under the age of 30 they're more likely to be infection but the disease is spread is also picking up pace among the old forcing berlin city government to take action there introducing new restrictions from saturday compelling bars and stores to close at 11 and limiting alcohol sales as well as the size of private gatherings not everyone supports the changes. yes you can just say much it's a hard question i think it's actually open so long but you have to maintain social distancing and i think as long as people do that it shouldn't be a problem to sit in a bar until late at night. i think the same i think everyone can keep themselves in check regardless of how much alcohol they drink at least i can keep a grip on myself so i don't understand why others can't do that. and. many support the new measures. of a man up big. you need to balance your own sensibilities against a virus that puts others' lives at risk you can feel the. case i think the measures are justified the. warning system is flashing red and that's forced the government to take action and while most people we've spoken to say they support the restrictions that still hasn't stopped the spread of the virus here in the german capital. nobel prize season again and the latest announcement was for the winners of the physics award it's being shared by 3 scientists who all carried out pioneering research into. black hole's half of the $1100000.00 prize will go to britain's roger penrose who provided mathematical proof that black holes exist back in the 1960 s. the other half of the prize is shared by the 2 other winners american astronomer and drag does and a german astrophysicist against. their work approved of the existence of a super massive black hole at the center of our galaxy the milky way. what is a black hole. black holes are among the weirdest objects in the universe there traps in space time where gigantic amounts of matter are compressed to a point so massive that it curved space almost infinitely and brings time to a standstill the border of this bizarre world is known as the event horizon. the german astronomer. did seminal calculations of the defining parameter describing the event horizon. black holes are formed when massive stars collapse at the end of their life cycle or when the compact remains of death stars merge that's how the light weights among these gravitational traps are born they're called stellar black holes those gravity ranges from between a few times to some 10 times that of our sun media massive black holes can have up to 100000 times the solar mass and the really giant super massive ones lurk at the center of many galaxies millions even billions of times as massive as the sun. black holes grow by sucking up everything in their vicinity even might can't escape the gravitational traps and they merge with one another to grow. albert einstein predicted them in his general theory of relativity. but they were 1st detected around 90 years later in the center of our galaxy the milky way is one such invisible mass that accelerates nearby stars to incredible speeds. telescopes around the world were synchronized to capture the 1st ever image of a black hole. the relatively. unspectacular looking picture shows the place where time comes to a standstill the dark event horizon surrounded by a ring of light from the hot matter that orbits the black hole it was a milestone in astronomy. well the w. caught up with one of the winners a german astrophysicist are trying hard again so how did he and his team go about proving the existence of a black hole at the center of the milky way. and so what we've done in the galactic center is by using the gravitational pull by the central object but she soon might be a black hole of $4000000.00 solar masses on to the gas and the stars so ron reagan more precisely measuring their motions we could show number one that newton's theory was not adequate and that you indeed need neat eyes science theory that the only plausible solution of the object is a massive black hole. but iran and sports have taken a step toward equality for the 1st time iran will officially have a female powerlifting team take part in international competition for women already competing in the sport it's a welcome and overdue initiative. iranian honey prepares meals for her family. and she's also preparing to officially compete as a power lifter for a run for the 1st time the 29 year old has been active in the sport for several years and saw some success but the competitions weren't recognised now they will be the hours of pumping iron are finally paying off. in my opinion this is some of the best news i've received since i've been active in powerlifting. i'm sure the support of the federation while inspire a lot of unknown talents around the country to blossom and step forward. i don't believe in has a tent to do so. but it will be a lot better for powerlifting women to have the support of the federation. still. some iranians have a negative view of women in power lifting her and he believes that could change if she succeeds in international competition the idea of female power lifting has already generated some enthusiasm time will tell if iran has the potential to become world champions one day. well legendary guitarist and songwriter eddie van halen has died after a long battle with cancer. together with his brother alex he formed the

example and realize even robert they're looking at other issues that the rest so many people shop shop called chintu trees rocked up in that remember him in a cage and they're shaped in or about crowded out of institutions i mean we couldn't look away from it it was impossible to turn away from show let's settle for what what needs to be done so i mean clearly what needs to be drunk shopping should be battened and the by ensuring curative enforcement mechanisms that would ensure regular make money tureen of tips right and private institutions and facilities and all of these i'm hearing sense has really just sent have government needs to invest in quality assessable that are for the community mental health services i mean that's just not an option it needs to be courting the internet in needs to be and when you stick approach to dealing with this problem then you know you're not just needs to be done to reduce teen mom and that is associated with gentle health threat that's also shaken human rights watch africa director thank you marty. then i joined government's plans to make the country less dependent on food imports have been dealt a severe blow floods have washed away

rainy season but the quantity of water was unusually high this time dams and rivers were able to hold back the water flooding a number of states across nigeria can be has been especially hit hard these farmers are trying to transport their cattle to dry land improvising and it lack of infrastructure. not much is left of this bridge it's been washed away like many roads and hundreds of homes the people of care be we're actually expecting a really good harvest season but most of the crops especially rise have been destroyed during the past 2 weeks of flooding. about one quarter of nigeria's rise grows in kabi the state has become an important player in recent years boosting domestic food production and while he is one of 200000 registered pharmacy here who have benefited from government loans to increase production since 2015 he takes us to his home most of them here are made off much easily destroyed by the flood. now while he must provide for a family of 11. i want to rebuild my house but i don't have the means to do so i want to buy food but i have no work i've been hoping the government will help but so far nothing will come of it. the newspaper reports the government has sent a delegation to candy they came they saw and they left given the lack of resources it remains unclear just how much really with poor in. wisconsin personal fries farmers and cabbie

donald trump declaring the u.s. economy can wait until after the election it's bad news for the unemployed and the airlines. also on the show london's financial hub risks becoming a ghost town as more workers stay home to avoid infection. and you can sell anything online chinese farmers are now taking their produce directly to social media. globe welcome to the show i'm stephen beers in berlin good to have you with us wall street shuttered on monday after u.s. president donald trump announced he was ending negotiations for a new congressional pandemic relief package which was likely to include aid for unemployed workers the airlines and small businesses the dow closing 1.3 percent down following trump's tweet that he would only entertain the idea of a new aid package after winning the election democrats and republicans in congress were already struggling to reach agreement divided on price tag and exact priorities u.s. unemployment remains stubbornly high industries like the airlines taking an especially hard hit. and trump's extraordinary tweet came hours after u.s. federal reserve chairman jerome powell urgently appealed for just such aid from congress and powell warn that without further help the us risks a recessionary downward spiral with quote unquote tragic outcomes for the most vulnerable is part of what he had to say the burdens of the downturn have not been evenly shared the initial job losses fell heavily on lower wage workers in service industries facing the public job categories in which minorities and women are overrepresented combined with the disproportionate effects of coated on communities of color. and the overwhelming burden of child care during quarantine and distance learning which has fallen mostly out of. the pandemic is further widening divides in wealth and economic mobility are a federal reserve chairman jerome powell there and now with us our financial correspondent yens korda in new york. powell speaking there of inequality exasperated through the pandemic here in the u.s. is that visible on a day to day basis. it definitely is just a look at the statistics if you look at african-american women for example the unemployment rate is almost twice the almond oil and rate of white men and then specially in a low paying service jobs and those shops got the hardest when the pandemic hits and also i see it was a friend of mine was white and when i talked to people also that a lot of schools are still only offering almost you offering a remote learning so what are you going to do if you do have money you can easily hire in any let's if you don't have the means this is not possible so that's why we saw quite a spike in people actually quitting their jobs because they have to take care of their children if you work on silicon valley for example this is probably not necessary. so how they're also really urging for a relief package that trump said isn't necessary because the economy is doing great how would such a package have benefited or how is it designed to benefit the american economy. well again i know so many people actually who are not able to pay their rent anymore they're cutting down with grocery shopping for instance and that started by the end of july so when the last 8 picket ended and when a lot of people who were unemployed for instance got $600.00 extra per month and since that expired a lot of people who actually also left the city because they couldn't afford living in new york anymore so it is very crucial to get there and you would h. package and it's a it's a big surprise to me at least that donald trump made this announcement via twitter not even 24 hours after being released from all spittle because hardly any president has it in to fight himself so much was wall street as donald trump has done and it was to be expected that stocks would drop like a rock after he did make this announcement so maybe but that's a big maybe he just wanted this announcement to got some more negotiation power but for now would really looks like this deal is off for quite some time. with the latest from new york thank you. and we go over to the u.k. now where the government has warned of tough months ahead due to the pandemic and call for more people to work remotely and that has consequences for london's financial hub the city as it's known has been left asserted as people work from home. as more. this is the latest fashion trend for bank us in london city accessorizing suits with a match to mask this one the shop has been around for over 100 years business had always been great until the pandemic hit and for 6 months he didn't make a single suit and had people come back into the city. so he could get back to some normality now though boris johnson has said everyone who can should keep working from home over the winter. policy is a disaster. so easy. for the high street. independent shops you couldn't the big big. stores all over it where. one shop. it's. 9 am usually rush hour in the city not so in corona times it's hard to believe how empty the streets which are normally bustling with people cars and buses up to half a 1000000 workers come into london's financial district usually every day to work here now norman foster world famous is virtually deserted as are the other skyscrapers here in the city most workers are still working from home at this point at least over the winter or until a covert 19 vaccine is found. experts tell me that social distancing is difficult in skyscrapers plus making offices compliant with because twitter has already announced that their employees will be allowed to work from home into. definitely and british petroleum is smiling over the most dramatic downsizing of property in their history we are seeing a lot of tenants completely rethinking how they are going to occupy the space so without a shadow we are looking to me where rents are going to go up and up and up in this or begin to become more and more valuable where rents will stabilize or even drop the clock believes london city will survive this crisis as it did august for now though this iconic part of london really is on life support and local businesses don't know how to make it through the winter especially in restaurants and pass we haven't got one book at the christians not one not one taylor dayne hook

has strive to become more instagram where does it leave us that's coming up on arts and culture and a space ship on hard times blog areas once grand monument to communism finally gets a facelift. and later on be instinctive a theory a work a finnish artist rita pipe. line. welcome to arts and culture since instagram launched its app 10 years ago it's not just people's photos that have improved the real world has actually changed in order to look better in pictures now businesses and even cultural institutions are built around looking good in photos well back when the very 1st instagram was downloaded the app on october 6th 2010 the idea was just to post pictures of whatever was happening that instant looking back it almost seems naive. the 1st instagram post was blurry and not much to look at its instagram co-founder kevin spy strums dog kevin doesn't have to work anymore instagram is the world's largest photo sharing website but 1st instagram with its filters was mostly seen as just a good way to improve pics taken on your phone now there are professionals at work . restaurants know the power of the app. travel snapshots that are just too good to be true thousands of instagram is flocked to the same destinations. and museums now staged the kind of exhibitions that work well on the platform bespoke art museum has only one purpose as a backdrop for selfies. today instagram has a 1000000000 active users and the app has helped give rise to a new job profile influencer models could be more perfect than ever before instagram queen kylie jenner is the platform's front runner with 197000000 subscribers some have made fortunes using the app even cats and dogs can be superstars this little fellow for instance has some 10000000 followers instagram is the perfect environment for advertising and companies are happy to take advantage of that to search for the perfect pitch dark surprise surprise the most successful of them all and. why and i am hoping my colleague michael krueger can explain that one mike what's going on here that was a campaign and the aim of that was just to be better than kylie genest last post and they achieve this goal with more than 53000000 likes absolutely because there is this prime excel. bull for the superficial instagram world is too much of everything looks like the perfect version of a woman bots in a comic if you know what i mean and ok i think she does of the campaign just wanted to print out the precious social media trick is to normal people with normal life normally shapes with an aunt in every week or so we know that there is this very superficial side of instagram with models and unattainable body is i am on there actually because a lot of my favorite artists are on their art institutions comedians so it's not all superficial absolutely not there really some very interesting and very extraordinary people on instagram of making fun of this superficial instagram wolf for example the comedian celeste barbara and she has millions of follow us with her parodies. yet you see here i think of those kind of taking a lot of photos but this is the artist cindy sherman and cindy sherman is doing her best to look as best bet as possible with with photos and photo editing and i know that she's one of the major artists who have become even more famous in the last 10 years the instagram have been out i do get the impression actually the artists who do well on instagram there are to sort of made in a way that suited to a small screen or to the instagram world absolutely some artists develop their art for instagram and some people go to exhibitions just to do a selfie and wouldn't go usually to museum we have the artist. one of the most successful artist in the world right now and she is doing those dream waltz rooms where the people can go in and do their selfies and you wonder if that experience is still about the art or is it more about the benefit of the spectator well you know
