worth building is a europe worth defending. the threats we face in the 21st century include cyber tear arism uncontrolled mass migration and human trafficking. we want to be involved in european actions in all of these. we definitely can't do it all on our own. participating in u.n. peace keeping operations and defense policy operations and we are not members of nato. so we will participate in a way that is consistent with those traditions as other countries will too. president, i believe the europe of the future must do four things. first of all weicide continue to do what we currently do well. secondly we should focus on the big new challenges facing europe and its citizens. third, we should devolve some powers back to member states, municipalities and member regions and engage more citizens in direct democracy. ireland, as you know has moved from being a net ben fishiary to one that is now a net contributor. nonetheless, we're opening to contributing more but only things that contribute to the advancement of the european dea

shortest way into europe. to stop them europe was build a double barbed wire fence it's a modern version of the great wall of china and more recently the berwyn wall while those walls relied on height and guards to keep outsiders at but a spanish fans bristles with electronic surveillance gear but the purpose is the same. offense it replaced much lower was too easily breached with the result bad for the truly desperate souter became a stepping stone into continental europe. underworld spirit. of. smart i wonder. if being you know. the. difficult it is. those who still charms their luck wait in the surrounding forests but if court they are transported back to their countries of origin by the moroccan north qualities. now though there are a growing demand for a more constructive approach to bring about a lasting solution to the problem of illegal immigration. sort of for a time and even to drop by say for. a few because i don't think i think i said that he said i go there so i see a gun to the head what i mean.

reached these these conventions in this huge europe it is very difficult to find. the rules that can be applied immediately from friday. to two to greenland so that every every member state and every parliament and every government has the right to decide whether or when around when to join a convention it's a far more flexible system than the european union that's that's one rule for all and we now have seen that that also creates problems and even gave the majority of the. voters. the conviction that they had to do to get out of the european union the system of the council field is far more flexible but as you as you probably say to implement it is not easy and verdicts of the european court on human rights day are binding and indiana and most member states do do indeed live up to their obligations it takes a lot of time and we have some some bad customs here turkey is a bad customer at this moment always has been a bad. customer ukraine but also italy and sometimes the united kingdom they do not do what they have promised to do to sanction to divert excess of th

the populist parties in europe. threats for departure from the european union has marked a historic turning point. one of the reasons so many british voted to leave the european union was a fear of immigration. in austria, a right-wing nationalist government has formed as in hungary and poland. all three share a mistrust of what they call brussels bureaucracy, a fear of islam and a desire for isolationism. populists are now driving the political agenda in many european countries. also, politicians are talking publicly about a conservative revolution within a visit us on homeland, family, and christian values. is donald trump the leading figure of this new shift to the right? donald trump: america first. what is theew, overlap between donald trump, trumpism, and far right populism in europe? matthew: the overlap is that many of the same forces that drove donald trump into office are also present in europe and has been for some time. this backlash against globalization for example, the worry about migration and the re

it will crumble bearing dreams of a united europe with. mr howard thank you very much for being with us today so much to discuss regarding europe and what's going on in the european union right now so you were actually instrumental in bringing your country to the european union and you are a very pro e.u. figure. lately we have high profile voices for instance germany sigman gabrial. care they're actually calling to set up a euro zone finance ministry just streamline all the foreign policy decisions to have panel european elections in your opinion as united states of europe what you were aiming for when you were bringing your country to the european union no i i don't think that that is the right call in these circumstances and i think we need a stronger european union but it's very important that the union will and i was very carefully what are those areas where integration these are really needed and economic growth potential creation of common market seeing real single market it's not yet fully completed environmental protection. and se

but there could be a shared sense of europe. i believe we could have a stronger sense of belonging in europe like what you have in the us when i leave many people had a much stronger connection to their country and that's not something we have in europe even less so in germany i believe the sense of feeling european isn't really there. and the future of europe. are going to be more about i'm nothing. special but i think. we do all of these movements we're going in the wrong direction here we need to find a place where diplomacy if we respect each other maybe different cultures should be taken more into account because greek has a specific certain. culture it's a different from the italians from the swedish people so. her chair on the difference this should be taken into making process and should be respected. as a debate in europe goes on and these young people here to contribute to it. if you want to fix your economy employ women that's what canadian prime minister just introduced w.f. in his davos address he stressed the impor

recta off to europe and central asia division of human rights watch. where you executive director had to say that europe has come in for a lot of criticism in the report by your organization give us give us more about what are your reasons for concern i mean had to do with the e.u. our headline this year is that the e.u. has been treating human rights as an optional extra and that certainly is the case to do with refugee migration policy the focus has been very much on securing borders keeping refugees away rather than giving them a humanitarian treatment when they arrive and applying a fair. refugee policy across the continent the efforts to push refugees away to places like libya and turkey are of serious concern. and the rise of populous as we said in countries like austria has been fueling anti immigrant anti asylum seeker messages across europe now describing human rights as an optional extra is a very damning criticism and one of the central concerns is that europe seems to have outsourced its refugee asylum politics beyond the borders of europe

manage to seclude score a point or bring her over to their side on europe or the rest of europe has said oh this is a breakthrough for europe germany said well we'll consider microns proposal that's all they've said so it's our big i mean to the people of europe wanted this grand plan that schultz is talking about a federal european state within eight years i don't know who else wants that around europe among the european the other countries the neighboring countries the member countries and european ordinary european voters don't they don't want to buy into this vision that martin short is. to go out there in terre haute no i don't think so and he's talking about the united states of europe was mccomas talking about we need to make we need to integrate the euro zone i think on the corners talk where we need to get momentum back into the european union since break that we've just been sitting around saying what is the future so i think his idea is if you start talking about moving the european union forward on again or the euro zone we're back on track i don't know whether that's worryin

in germany or in europe but in the u.s. on almost every time trump tweets because there's a kyra and there's a discussion around it. and it also is the case online and i think the print. producers which are all dejavu york thank you very much for having me. turkey's incursion into northern syria is in danger of escalating that says rockets fired from within syria in turkey killing two people and wounding several others turkey's president has also vowed to expand his army's offensive words where they risk approaching u.s. forces stationed in syria u.s. president warning turkey against that move as the fighting intensifies. the shot to turn of yield to this evidence of the force that turkey has brought to bear enough turkey's government is determined to press on with all of branch which to them has been a success so far it's because. the operation will continue until the threat is removed . but the kurdish y p g wants the world to know that they would surrender the enclave without a fight. we will resist and will not allow th

would say for people in europe especially in western europe who support the transatlantic relationship and wanted to continue because you have a lot of which is most people in churches maybe most people but you have mainstream people also in germany and in the s.p.d. in the social democratic party for example saying you know we really need to rethink this whole relationship and look at our options and put wind in the sails i would say to people who might have been a little bit skeptical of the relationship with america to begin with out of this is one of your special fields. i'd like to say. as much as i agree that he's erratic in the foreign policy area too we do see continuity is and we do see a lot of course here and the ideology behind it is very coherent and it has been put out and their early in the presidency by herman mcmaster and gary cohen an op ed for the washington post saying that. if. training the world as an arena of competing actors and they have been going on with that they have been looking at the world like that ever since and it also shows in the national security s

and the future of europe. hope that things are going to be more about i'm nothing from him that you know but i think. we do all of these movements we're going in the one direction we need to find a place where the. almost two years to wait while we respect each other maybe different cultures should be taken more into account because greek has a specific substance history culture it's a different from the italians from the swedish people so. her cheer on the differences should be taken into account in decision making process is and should be respected. as a debate in europe goes on and these young people i hear to contribute to it. and for continuous coverage of the world economic forum in davos remember to stay tuned here at u.w. or log on to our website d w dot com that's all for business spec to fill now and the downsides of going viral. thank you so much yes a group of young russian cadets is in trouble taking a break from it davy jones they decided to lighten the mood by videoing themselves gods and off ma

europe. it can be defined by law, and much more rules defined by the consensus. , much more adapted to your business environment and for reallocation. it is much more productive at home. and i think it is very much waited for. acceleration and flexibility is also a series of microeconomic reforms. and that is what we are betting energy, housing, transportation, , andder to reduce the plus at this sector. that is why we have that for me. it is competitiveness. on one side, productivity on the other side. why? a lot of people, balance will come. jobs.n create a lot of [indiscernible] ,f we can create a lot of jobs we pass a series of reforms in order to accelerate this group strategy. especially reducing co2 emissions. close all of these stations by 2021 during this mandate. [applause] it will step up the fight. with the project, now writing in france. and i would say, it's about change. this cultural change is now a preference for simplification. france has a preference for regulation and taxe

how is europe going to keep this still alive. well the european part is this deal several days ago had a very important meeting in brussels where they came out with a unified message that they are going to remain committed to this deal and that importantly so long as iran carries on its part of the bargain they will do their best to deliver on the deal as it was envisioned or originally now i think everyone in europe understands and acknowledges it's going to be very difficult to keep the deal going if the united states backtracks so their effort for the next four months which is this deadline that their closest ally in the u.s. has issued to them their main efforts are going to be to keep the u.s. administration on board with the deal and find some sort of a solution that accommodates both iran's needs and the u.s. needs but if need be there you need to also consider contingency plans to keep this still together absent the united states to just be clear because for the next hundred twenty days trying to keep the u.s. on side rat

europe is afraid of the refugees, that is the main issue. all of the populist right wing and extreme right is coming from that. europe has a tendency to want to leave them in turkey which is not a solution. david is right in detecting a yearning for new leadership. why are these things becoming so popular? i am worried about the renaissance of nationalism. remember the kind of era in which he became a leader, it made him look strong. he was a fierce antagonist. do we want another churchill? do we want the re—emergence of that sort of power struggle that he faced? it is more difficult for a modern leader to burnish a profile because the world is so much in chaos. it is so unpredictable. he would not have known how to deal with these other problems we have been discussing for weeks and weeks. so i hedge my bets about new leadership. in the region we have very interesting new leadership, especially as mark mentioned. it is interesting to see how they see this need to open ——own what is going on in the region. there is a good topic for ano

and europe but he played a big role in that the united states has been. a partner in creating that rule based system i'm afraid that. through air force and especially language president trump has been using. i'm not that confident that the contribution of the united states to that rule based system is as relevant as it has been. let's talk about european trent's worrying transpiration as i know that according to related state of. that. european union may be facing at demographical crisis and the near future i mean your neighbors what the baltic states and their numbers have probably i mean really dropped drastically and a lot of people are actually thinking twice between actually if we're actually getting pregnant so i'm thinking is admitting refugees going to actually help revitalize the aging workforce i think the fact is that the fundamental issues that people are living longer and that means that that unless you're certain it is an issue people are living longer that means that that the whole economy system that has been based on the idea that that we

and europe have you played a big role in that the united states has been. a partner in creating that rule based system i'm afraid that that. true if forwards and especially language president trump has been using. i'm not that confident that the contribution of the united states to that rule based system is as relevant as it has been. let's talk about european trent's worrying transpiration as i know that according to the latest data. that european union may be facing at demographical crisis in a near future i mean your neighbors with the baltic states and their numbers have problems i mean really dropped drastically and a lot of people are actually thinking twice between actually if we're actually getting pregnant so i'm thinking is admitting refugees going to actually help revitalize d. aging workforce i think the fact is that the fundamental issues that people are living longer and that means that there's a misuse or it is an issue people are living longer that means that that the whole economy system that has been based on the idea that that we can surv

europe? that was a new development in basically the post roosevelt era. barring that, there could have been a sharing of power among the great powers continuing into -- well into the postwar. that kind of collaboration would have required regular meetings by the leaders themselves. sergey: i fully agree with this assessment. in the pacific, there looks like there is fantastic cooperation, including discussion with korea. the tension is in eastern europe. the u.s. is a new player there. with regard to eastern europe and stalin's plans and history on the fray. i am depression is that he doesn't know what system to introduce. there is a semblance of multiparty systems that were not allowed. eventually, they arrived to the idea that the only way is to say this is ours and this is yours. and the full gamut of things from party control to the end of the free elections. they didn't start with that idea, that they believed in the power of come in's ideas. with communist movement was on the rise. they

because we will never have any friends since this is without europe instances. france is back everyone's talking about that quote max he said france is back at the core of europe was there with of france first in that message you know he draws on patriotism of course because the french like to be still but the gong still they are patriotic but just know what simon just mentioned he spoke in english i don't recall any french president really doing that with at an important speech in the past so that shows you he is not in the spirit of america first that's probably gated by the trumpet ministration that represents a closed model that presents bilateral relationships he represents an open model of globalisation if it's done right multilateralism i just mentioned it so i would say the two could probably not be much farther apart. simon did you miss anything the americal zz speech what did she not say we have brant who talks about free trade and about combating of protectionism and nationalist thinking but what about germany's huge trade surplus you know there are m

eurozone so you are the euro yet in europe it's two. main trading partner for many countries in the world so the recovery in europe is important for everyone from the u.s. to africa to asia and that's what we have to keep in mind all right but made it clear doesn't just want more business with china he wants more business and trade on a more equal footing does europe have the leverage though to force more equal access to chinese markets well i think that the it was the first step in the european strategy you know. when we look at twelve trades champions the u.s. china and europe and we're thin in recent months with donald trump the u.s. for follow not for those now or more if that is that are surely if the strategy so we have to. draw a new a.q. berea between china and europe and such for one part of. micro strategy in china to say europe is now an important. part of the fourth sign off and we have to discuss to find a new way kubrick and so that was the first part the second part it was about risky procedure the thing you train you to

insisting that there can be no success for france without a successful europe. simon young it does sound as chance of a president. moving the same direction well absolutely as max says you know there's a lot more detail in president macro speech front says back angela merkel saying you know germany hasn't gone away yes of course it's been a lot of negative talk about angola medical's a position of perhaps fading status on the international stage some people have suggested as a result of these very protracted attempts to find a need government here in germany and that obviously prevents angle of medical prevented her and her speech of iran today from going into a lot more detail but there is some mention for instance even in the preliminary coalition agreement if i can mention that about reforms of europe about restarting the european cooperative effort and that was totally the focus of the medical speech only it's dates looking about cooperation on banking on the climate and in particular also a focus on the digital economy and on security policies and a whole r

and the future of europe. may be different cultures should be taken more into account because greek has a specific certain skills three culture it's a different from the italians from the swedish people so. her chair on the difference this should be taken into making process and should be respected. the debate in europe goes on and these young people here to contribute to it. to corporate news now in u.s. chip making giant qualcomm will have to pay a close to a billion euros an anti-trust penalties to the european union the e.u. as competition commission or m i got into fest august said qualcomm paid apple to use its chips exclusively in its i phones and i pads that means the company illegally excluded rivals from the market for l.t.e. baseband chipsets for at least five years ensuring its own market don its. and more troubles at general electric ahead it posted a whopping ten billion dollar loss in a five percent decline in revenue last quarter the poor performance was driven by a fifteen billion dollars char

it is not leading in europe. at the same time, we know digitalization means there has to be lifelong learning. we have to deal with completely new solutions as regards social systems. that is to say we have to be aware of the fact that these disruptive technological changes invariably made disruptive changes for our society. and the readiness particularly in a society that is growing ever older, such as germany, there is not that much of a preparedness to get used to these new developments. the question is not what can i distribute? but how can i ensure prosperity for the future? that is what we have to concentrate on. if we actually want to fulfill their promise of prosperity for all in the future as well in the new digital world, we need a social market economy, not only an industry. we also have to deal with the question how can we jot others into the fold, not leave them behind? that is a very important question for all of those countries. countries that are fractured will not be able to act in this cooperati

the rest of europe has said this is a breakthrough for europe. germany said we will consider macron's proposals. anchor: do the people of europe want this grand plan within eight years? who wants that around europe? the neighboring countries? the member countries? ordinary european voters? do they want to buy into this vision that martin schulz is going to go out there? >> i i don't think so. he is talking about the united states of europe. macron was talking about integrating the eurozone. we need to get momentum back into the european union. since brexit, we have been waiting around. his idea is if you start talking about moving the european union forward again or the eurozone, we are back on track. i do not know whether that is worrying people on the street, but to go out and sell this as a great triumph for social democracy is rather naive. what role does angela merkel play in all of this? one thing is for certain, it doesn't look good for the most powerful woman in the world that she is often called that she cannot call together a coalition

tech and utilities, week in europe. we will get more details as we get the stocks opening up this morning. of go back and talk about some of the consumer stocks in a little more detail now. we have seen steady sales growth in china and north america. however, there are still challenges. one is the profitability of its reebok rand. the restructuring brand will pay off. how long will he give it? davos.o back to francine: we are focusing on addidas. we want to focus on the brand and what the protectionist message that trump brings back. we have the ceo. when you look at adidas, the resurgence is one of the most impressive stories. this inspires many of your competitors. if you look at the landscape of the next 12 months, what are you most worried about. -- i have been to been to davos for 12 years. there are not many things to worry about. i see a very strong america. i am more concerned about, can europe focus on the future instead of the past? terms of sales, the u.s. is looking good? in 2017 we grew approximately 30%, w

it is a europe that must have a common foreign policy on strategic questions a europe that must create its own common development policy it's a europe of defense and it is a europe that has to be economically strong was i know what got us votes off the starts and was clearly for me the priority is to know where do we want to go i think we share this vision of defending a greater sovereignty greater unity and a europe of a more democratic character and if we agree on the end goals we can construct the tools to get. you and equip. for the french president a more integrated europe goes hand in hand with the pro-business policies he hopes will invigorate the economy at home. so big plans for the european union but with germany one of the key players of the e.u. not having a new government it's going to be hard for the french president. to put any of these plans into action orthodox christians around the world have been celebrating if any for them the holiday commemorates the baptism of jesus in the river jordan millions of believers marked the occasion with a traditional ritual often bravi

there is room for europe. francine: do you think chinese investment and money could come to europe instead of the u.s. because of the tariffs? lars: we have seen increased chinese interest in europe. things are not black and white. this american first agenda is europe first agenda. we have to protect ourselves to some extent. we shouldn't be naive. i am totally in favor of free trade. we have a level playing field. we have to discuss with the chinese the way they controlled the companies. that is not exactly free competition. minister, do you believe donald trump is changing the language of diplomacy? is it different the way now that heads of states speak to each other because of the way the president tweets? lars: to some extent. i will not regret. we speak honestly and very clear and very loud. , that's ok. isadjustment of you important to say that it's not only donald trump. i mean, around him, many, many good people, etc. and what i realized during the last year is that europe is much more than washington.

soldiers in europe with such controversial come on the air in chief in washington many people in europe are wondering is america still a reliable partner. germ or bernhardt as welcome to conflict thank you michel republican senator bob corker head of the foreign relation committee of the u.s. senate said president donald trump threatens other nations in such a way it could lead to with the world war do you agree. well course as a soldier my job is to make sure that our soldiers are as well prepared as they can be for whatever contingency. should arise our focus is on deterrence. working as part of the alliance most successful alliance in the world in the history of the world so but senator bob corker sat if we want to speak more about this vote that the president of the united states is today more a danger than to hell for peace i mean again i don't know trump threatens other nations in such a way it could lead to a third world war two you agree with that i think that the president has done everything that the previous administration said it was going to do the president and this admini

for europe. otherwise the project would fail. he worked in creating a single currency for europe, the euro, and that is a significant legacy. this challenge to all of us is that we have to provide greater meaning for europe now. mr. varadkar: promise of a better future as motivated people to work for the european ideal since the beginning. speaking in this chamber today, i m reminded of one of the greatest figures in irish politics, and one of the greatest figures in politics from northern ireland, john hume,'s birthday it is tomorrow and who served as a member of this great parliament for 25 years. he spoke many times about symbolism of the bridge not too far from here connecting strasburg to kel just across the border in germany. he spoke how easy and ordinary it was to walk across the bridge, and given europe's dark history how remarkable and from out that ordinaryness was. john hume saw a model for how a lasting peace, however improbable, could be fostered and built. he saw how that model of

and the future of europe. may be different cultures should be taken more into account because greek has a specific certain species three culture it's a different from the italians from the swedish people so. cultural difference this should be taken into account in decision making process and should respect. the debate in europe goes on and these young people here to contribute to it. and the debates on the world goes on of course as well as later today we mentioned that us president donald trump will join the meeting in davos but even before his arrival there he's already been the talk of the tower returning to my colleague ben fizzling who spoke just a few minutes ago with the c.e.o. of u.s. software company you see a technology in order to get his assessments on trump in office. the new tax reforms have been very good for almost all business is very good for ca we are thirty five percent tax payer twenty one percent you can see that that's a big difference we will take that savings we get a tax rebate vested

i supported europe for many years. and idid not supported europe for many years. and i did not make a u—turn. i did not even change my position. i oppose the eurozone. i don't believe you can run a currency from 27 countries. i did not believe in a federal europe and never did. as foreign secretary i put to cabinet a paper that was designed to show you could be in europe without it coming a federal europe. now with the french president, very determined for a federal europe, good luck to him. if he and germany put their a cts him. if he and germany put their acts together, it is possible to see acts together, it is possible to see a fleece the eurozone countries, may bea a fleece the eurozone countries, may be a reduced number, effectively being a united states of europe and we will have good relations with them. talking about how that will work, you wrote a book about the foreign policy after brexit. someone 25 years younger than me voted remain andi 25 years younger than me voted remain and i should think this shows you can bridge the gap. that's unpicked the t
