italy has said, no more. , if italy is questioning the dublin agreement, the whole system will .ave to be reviewed it is more a bad reason. it might have good results because the actual dublin is just impossible. it is just creating people who are wondering, wandering all over europe. we have two sides of the coin that many people argue for and against. those who do not want more migrants in europe, people coming from these horrific situations in their home countries, looking for a better life, it is a circle that keeps going around. what is the solution? rejiggering the dublin agreement? hope the politician in europe will reconsider the migratory policies. because theeality of thousands of people -- this is not an invasion, but it is an important number of people trying not only to move on with their life, to survive, to find international protection. the majority of these men and are refugees, potentially refugees because they come from benefits where they can from international protection. in europe, if they want to have the values that they pretend to have, they will have another p

between paris and rome with italy threatening to counsel bilateral talks the french ambassador to the country was also recalled and asked to apologize. the french ambassador has been summoned by a foreign minister on behalf of the italian people will ask for an explanation for the insults directed not only against the government but also against the nation which is among the first in the world in terms of generosity solidarity and hospitality if the french have the humility to apologize the story will be closed and we will work in the interests of everyone the humanitarian vessel that was turned away by the it's hardly an authority as the aquarius was carrying six hundred twenty nine migrants those on board were rescued off the coast of libya we could go and were hoping to disembark in sicily before being refused entry italy has been one of the countries hardest hit by since the beginning of the crisis more than half a million people have reached the country by boat from north africa in five years in two thousand and eighteen alone italy has taken in over thirteen thousand migrants mo

meantime that in italy, they do not want migrants back, so maybe a way to let him accept them is some money, and it could be probably a way on sunday in brussels for merkel to achieve a compromise with italy and other countries. peter: things have now certainly come to a head with the animosity between angela merkel .nd her interior minister let's get a glimpse of how acrimonious it has been. >> the rift between angela seehofer begant when germany opened its borders to refugees. >> we done so much. we can do this. >> this is a huge undertaking which has already been exacerbated. news spreads quickly around the world. >> we can do this. >> i can only repeat -- this system is collapsing. >> t the dispute has e escalated turnseehofer's demand to refugees away. >> we think turning people back at our borders could lead to negative domino effects that could hurt germany. >> i say that if there are no such effect, i am determined that migrants must be turned back at our borders. horst seehofer really want -- stricter asylum laws or to topple the chancellor? peter: what does he really want? y

people came to italy last year. the populist uprising has come from that. and this comes off the back of him and turning away a migrant shipjust last back of him and turning away a migrant ship just last week. back of him and turning away a migrant shipjust last week. yes, he is also applauded the fact that the nomadic was demolished. as we head discussed, with trump, echoes what the not these did. this isn't really very worrying. more worrying is something similar that is happening in america is happening in europe. normally, that sort of populist politics, and if you like, coming together people who seem to think alike about refugees and people coming for shelter to the country, thatis coming for shelter to the country, that is very worrying. a brief chat at this hour. thank you both very much. we'll have more at 11.30 with a longer look at the papers. thank you both very much. do not forget that you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. it is all there for you, seven days a week,.

over the development in italy and that since recovered but sharp movements like that are a sign that the market is super nervous and the lack of stable development upwards or maybe even downward shows that the people in the market are not happy campers are not happy. where they are and when you have movements like this then you see that italy is on the mind but a trade war also with a trade war of course no one winning in the end difficult times on the market. thank you. donald trump is also facing increasing pushback over his import tariffs at home two of america's most wealthy businessmen want trump steal an element of them tires lift it as well as those lined up on chinese goods the billionaire koch brothers backing a multi-million dollar campaign against the terrorists better known for using their wealth to support ultra conservative agendas and it's unusual for the industrialists to oppose a republican president that contained the man's house and senate votes on any new us. inflation rate in turkey has hit a six months high president have tired out of iran has been struggling to

, were completely unjustifiable and were compromising relations between france and italy. italy is demanding an official apology from the french government before it considers the visas -- the visit by the prime ministers giuseppe conte at the palace on friday. i just spoke to the office of the prime minister. we don't know if the prime minister will be attending the meeting with president macron. so a very tense situation, and the interior minister has been speaking in parliament. he stepped up the pressure demanding an apopology from the french government and said it was unacceptable, saying the french had held to accept more migrants, failed to meet a commitment to accept the 9000 migrants it had pledged to accept over the last several yearars and also pushed back 10,000 migrants who had tried to cross the border from into i france in the past few months. action, notanding words from the president and saying the current policies are unacceptable. the words that were used yesterday were offensive and unacceptable and are compromising relations between the countries now.

certainly hold up investment at the moment so i think it's another dampening factor and what about italy when the when the new government finally came together we know it's a populist government from the left and the right spectrum certainly one of them not exactly europe friendly how big is the risk of a euro crisis to dog. oh i think your institute calls it i think that the government has. this year old debate they don't say anymore you know they want to leave the euro it is unclear what they will do on the fiscal policy front but condi they seem to be focusing on migration which is a problem but not so much for the economy a lot will depend on how they run their fiscal policy if they really increase the deficit massively we will have a crisis but maybe they will think about that as well the german economy also seems to be quite good at the moment at least sort of weakening itself through homegrown crises like the gate scandal and just yesterday. audi was arrested the first top executive. is that going to be a problem for europe's growth engine it is a problem it is certainly a complet

it's the first important sign that italy can't continue to bear this huge burden on its own. i mean it's clear the european union can't go on this way. we hope today is a new beginning. and what we need. but the charity running the rescue ship has warned of the challenges in reaching the spanish port of palencia it would take at least two days putting vulnerable people at risk that's why the un is continuing to put pressure on italy and malta which are much closer to let the ship dock its creation is getting more dramatic by the minute and that's why we are asking to immediately authorize these invocation and to leave other issues. are the political issues on how to manage the rows of migrants and refugees for a late stage cost addressed in an unwelcoming political climate the fate of the migrants aboard the aquarius is still unclear. and just a reminder of the top stories we're following here for you it's morning in singapore and the big moment is also is almost here we are looking at live pictures of u.s. president donald trump arriving for his summit with north korean lead

europe's leading nations at loggerheads over the migration crisis italy's populist prime minister agrees to join emergency talks but only after germany's angela merkel scraps a draft joint statement on the issue she's desperate for a europe wide solution to the crisis. also on the program. for u.s. president signs an order ending family separations of the border with mexico this follows a day of public outrage after his administration and don'ts the policy. and role are two of my. powers today international millions of people are tired of. stretching across the globe. i'm still get welcome to the program this weekend european mini summit on migration looks set to go ahead as planned on sunday despite threats by italy not to attend italian prime minister she said become to have threatened to boycott the talks in protest against a your commission president said draft agreement for the summit the document to call for asylum seekers to be immediately returned to the e.u. country they first entered which is very often it's only a contest says he has secured concessions after a phone call with

of germany and of italy are completely contradictory it's only once a get rid of migrants italy doesn't want to keep them because europe doesn't take migrants off of these hands so particularly that sort of deal could be difficult or it would be extremely expensive for germany if italy could be bought on that point that's the question but already we see the first government crisis in rome unfolding so we don't even know who has the power to speak and make what agreements so we are on very uncertain ground there at the moment all right you have used barbara visa with the very latest for us from brussels thank you barbara. well setting off this rush to find a migration solution and interior minister here in germany with a case of migration fatigue or symbol for has threatened to close germany's borders to new arrivals unless chancellor merkel can secure a unified e.u. or sponsor to migration by the end of the month and the growing backlash against migrants across europe has many fearing for their future like the young man you're about to meet. i'm ahmed i'm almost twenty years old i was b

countries italy's far right interior minister had already up the rhetoric the previous evening. in europe the times are over when france and germany decided refugee policy when they told european italy what they had to pay and which migrants they had to take in. it took a call from angela merkel in the promise to withdraw the draft before the italian prime minister agreed to attend this weekend's talks we'll see each other in brussels on sunday can they wrote sounds like he's ready for a fight. yeah but you have to of course be face to face to have a fight will that happen think about that i'm joined by auster de botton she specializes in immigration and integration policy at the german marshall fund think tank here in berlin is the word it's good to have you on the show i mean when you hear what's going on just in italy and on t.v. talking about eastern europe right now what does that tell us in terms of the possibilities of a success coming out of this summit. well we certainly know that it's not going to be easy what ever she has to and she has to try and figure out how to br

she has problems with populous countries and italy with a debtt lolo. she has managed the euro zone crisis. she has been stabbed in the that come if you will, by the sister party in the conservative block. it is significant or her, but for all of europe as well. ,f she is in political peril which people havave been sayings the case. what has been planned by the interior minister is to announce border controls and he is within his rights to do that and that will force angela merkel to politicalhim to her inferior or to f fire him and rk ththwhole coalalition unravevel, resigning, possibly calling a vote of confidence. none of the options s are appepealing. now,we are hearing justst there is supposed to be a a pres conference in bavaria as we are speaking. there may be to press confnferences and also a joint press c conference that needs to be confirmed. it sounds like it could be a compromise. the stakes were high. >> difficult to see what her options are at this stage, then? see: it is difficult to where things will go. the shape of the deal presumably

like italy because we heard in the meantime the. interim minister and in italy salvini doesn't want him. back and so maybe the way to let him accept them is to give him some money it could be probably a way on sunday in brussels to to achieve a compromise with a conference ok things have now certainly come to a head but the only mostly between anglo-american interior minister a whole city hall for that we've been talking about goes back a long way let's just get a glimpse of how acrimonious it is be. the rift between hundred american and horse symbols for began to develop in twenty fifteen when the american government opened to germany's poor one million refugees. we've done so much we can do this with only because this is a huge undertaking. which is now been exacerbated by this decision in china news spreads quickly around the world here so yes new home pay to write we can do this on so i can only repeat the system is collapsing. the dispute has now escalated which is a hopeless demand to turn refugees away. that's what we think t

but when italy refused to allow the ship to dock, it can do nothing but wait. while the alexander maersk is still off sicily, a german rescue ship is in a similar situation your malta. lifeline has picked up more than 230 migrants, including children, from the mediterranean. but it has also been at sea for several days come after malta, spain, and italy refused it permission to dock. on sunday night, a group of european politicians visited the vessel, promising to do all l ty can. >> nobody cares about them, nobody is helping. if you come to libya, you must go to prison. >> italy step you has visited libya, where he discussed the migration crisis. he also hit out at the ngo behind the lifeline rescue boat. >> should did not follow the instructions of either the libyan or the italian coastt guard. itit is an, and must be seized t any place that it docs. x while the political wrangling continues, these migrants are left at sea, watching and waiting for a decision on their fate to be made. brent: i'm joined by telephone with alina from sea watch, a nonprofit organ

help italy more on immigration. it's the first important sign that italy can't continue to bear this huge burden on its own. i mean it's clear the european union can't go on this way. and so we hope today is a new beginning. but the charity running the rescue ship has warned of the challenges in reaching the spanish port a full length it would take at least two days putting vulnerable people at risk that's why the u.n. is continuing to put pressure on italy and malta which are much closer to let the ship dock its creation is getting more dramatic by the minute and that's why we are asking this me authorize these invocation and to leave if. other political issues on how to. fix it flows of. refugees for a late stage cost addressed in an unwelcoming political climate the fate of the migrants aboard the aquarius is still unclear. north and south koreans have gone their separate ways since the armistice ended the korean hostilities back in one nine hundred fifty three now a japanese photographer has taken a series of po

so it and italy's obviously going in a very difficult route in europe so the question is open how united the european countries are france is very fast reforming germany is not reforming their burdens on the brits wants to leave the european union and the jury's out fatally so it's a major question mark so what do you see the day job that if the best case scenario that that you described about don trump rethinking his trade policy if that was not to the case do you think that there's just some it could actually end making matters worse than they already. yes it could happen it's a very difficult and very political summit the g seven started as an economic summit some forty four years ago as the g. five but it has become more and more political for many many reasons so and if they do not find the common ground at least it could end. with there was a was in the there is no agreement in the end the joint no joint agreement now just finally looking at the role perhaps of the german chancellor who so far has not engaged in any twitter feud and she is known to be very cautious very soft spoken

italy's prime minister qantas said to confront merkel at the summit he is adamant he will not be talked into letting migrants back and come to once to reform the dublin agreement specifically that the country refugee flows the rise should no longer be responsible for them. may's crucial we're expecting action not just talk fuck to within the e.u. hungary takes a hard line on migration its prime minister favors a populist approach why fuel migrants have come to europe in recent years he's sticking to his policy of no tolerance. i think the people request two things first is no migrants maureen will stop them and the second is those who are in bring back so that's what the people we all saw i think we. are in order to restore the european democracy we have to move to that direction it's easier perhaps to focus on the football but the leaders won't have much time to watch the matches there are simply too much to argue about. our correspondent in iraq is covering the summit for us tonight in brussels getting to you georg it's looking like it's going to be one of those long evenings as long.

he is the new leader in italy. here is the editorial page. few things are more uncertain in politics than president trump trying to deflect from a negative news story by drawing attention to another. this latest smoke bomb of distraction could do needless harm to western unity. the journal points out there is a stronger case in their view for inviting india or australia before inviting russia, which has nuclear missiles but is the world's 11th largest economy. the brazilian and indian economies are larger. not fard australia are behind. mobile, alabama. caller: good morning. yes, russia should be readmitted to the g8. it was the g8 before they kicked russia out. after the united states of america went into ukraine and overthrew the government in 2014. russia will never give up crimea. is the only warm water port that russia has from russia into the baltic sea. why don't you put up a map of ukraine and crimea and show people? hillary clinton went in in 2014, overthrew the government in ukraine, and russia said ok, we have to save our warm wate

prime minister giuseppe conte after rejecting requests from the lifeline to dock in italy says that he has reached a deal with the island nation of malta and walter which also turned away the white line now says it will join other european nations in accepting some of the migrants on board. the men women and children on board the lifeline have been stranded at sea for six days there was some hope for them as italy announced the vessel could dock in malta under one condition that the migrants are distributed among e.u. countries malta and italy a willing to take some of them put you go to germany and france have also offered to help. but the french president pointed to the severity of the situation. because we have experienced migration crises before but this is not a situation like that this is an internal political crisis in europe. michael also said the ship run by the german n.g.o.s mission lifeline had to fight all the rules by rescuing the migrants when the libyan coast guard was already intervening he accused the ngo of playing into the hands of people smugglers. italy's inter

we have always said and would like to reiterate today the dublin rules have to change italy is firmly opposed to the current reforms to the dublin system and we are currently preparing our own proposals which we will share with our french friends and other european partners to develop them at the european level under the austrian presidency of the council and it's those rules which leaders will be reexamining at the european union summit in two weeks' time the dublin regulation imposed that the first count three does well comes out that receives migrants and that's island seekers is in charge of processing at their claim which is what an enormous burden on countries like italy they mouth our hand gary that is countries on the nod i'm sure are of the media there and see these two leaders we're never going to get rid of all of the tensions that have built up between france and italy over the issue of migration but what we've heard from them does remind the whole continent that the solution to the problem lies only europe wide basis the number of people arriving in italy by sea has dropp

negotiates but naturally with italy hopefully and others so both get what they want she will be able to turn away more people at the border she would have a european solution and i think that they will try to move on. exactly. as i say with the group has already lost is just a question of saving face. by the way if you saw them both yesterday there was this celebration of. or anniversary of about about refugees from german refugees from from the east and so on and not based not on comfortably next to each other but this battle got enormous applause from the assembled political and cultural elites of germany and she has this behind her back and see who is an outsider and he'll have to climb down. yeah i think i'll go into the crystal ball. we will see if zero four is able to survive politically as a minister after the bavarian elections may be you has to resign or not but i think also it is. a symbolic fee personality but i think he's already more or less is an old older man and i think probably you will he will sometime leave the political scene in the world in. maybe with more time

alone a very warm welcome indeed to focus on europe with me peter craven and we begin in italy which finally has a new coalition government a coalition however that blames brussels and above all burley in for italy's world courts war both coalition partners the anti establishment five star movement and the far right league say they're going to say.

they have increased in italy by 3%. you have an electorate sold the promise of the euro, lots of warnings at the time that it was imperfectly designed and heading for a smash at some point. it seems to be almost impossible to reform. president macron is doing brilliantly in many respects, but there doesn't seem to be any sense... we could have had this conversation six or seven years ago and saying the same things and yet it is still there. italy and the love for europe of the italians and they felt let down because of the refugee crisis. it was italy who had to cope because of the dublin agreements, data in hundreds and thousands of refugees and where pretty much left alone with it. no wonder people say they don't help us, why should we stick to the project. greece is suffering from the refugee crisis as well. and malta. there have been reports of refugees selling their passports and returning to turkey or syria. because they cannot cope, the culture change as well. europe is faced with so many tremors and fault lines
