a great economic and financial nation one day can join own agrees with me on this that will happen mike hanna has more from washington d.c. . the state department has confirmed that a u.s. negotiating team has traveled to the north korean side of the demilitarized zone for negotiations hitting the team is some king now he's a former ambassador to south korea and he was part of the delegations that negotiated during the so-called six party talks between two thousand and three of tall they broke down in two thousand and nine now interestingly enough on the north korean side their chief negotiator is chose. she's a deputy foreign minister and was part of the north korean delegation during those six nation talks so certainly the go see it is from both sides know each other well aware of the history of the ongoing crisis in north korea now what they are doing
8:05 am
we understand is to set an agenda for the talks should they take place on june the twelfth without a clear agenda discussed over the next three days there's likely to be no summit. now robert kelley is professor of international relations at tucson national university and he says president johnson's using summit with kim jong un to prop up his domestic and. it would help a lot if the americans particularly would start to lay out what specifically they're looking for the sides demanding that the north koreans give up everything because they're not going to do that so assuming the north koreans aren't going to give up all that what would the united states be willing to live with and what we want what we willing to give the north koreans in return i mean that's one of the things have been really frustrating about this process in the last couple of weeks is this kind of like all or nothing sort of feel to it right now to some it's going to happen or it's not all this great drama they're going to give up everything the libya model that's probably not how this thing they're going to shake out they'll probably be the north koreans will give up something that will go to something else
8:06 am
and then be a series of meetings and steps taken years in which you have concession made for counter concession it's not all going to get wrapped up in three weeks that would be extraordinary i think on donald trump's side yes i think it's a little more obvious driven by domestic needs the president dismissing a tough election in the fall we know the president likes the drama and theatricality of these kinds of big meetings president hasn't really steep himself in the detail of nuclear weapons or missile technology if you listen to his speeches he's very thin on what specifically we're going to ask for give away i think a lot of this yes is driven by his desire for been to cation and approval in the global media. to italy now where the leader of the five star movement has called on parliament to impeach president says a matter rela after efforts to form a new government collapsed it comes after the president vetoed the prime minister designate to contest choice of economy minister forcing him to give up trying to form an administration the president was quick to defend himself saying he had to block the euro skeptic candidate. to protect him is a common me it's thought i will now try to appoint

8:13 am
in preparing and maybe take more of an active role in looking at these small the twenty leagues that a cropping up now more and more all the time and just making sure that there's no corruption going on in the smaller legs i think the i.c.c. have done a lot in cleaning up the international game and which has meant that the bookmakers need to find other ways of influencing their results so approaching a ground man or maybe looking at these lower level to a twenty legs is the way to go the fact that the international team does so well educated and is now on by the anti corruption unit i think has pushed these these bookmakers away from the main game and if in it we're saying you know like a twenty things or a groundsman banco it's rather than the the main international players and you can watch our exclusive investigation end to cricket match fixing on al jazeera on monday at twelve g.m.t. . still ahead on the bulletin why can

head towards the arabian peninsula we've got this massive cloud here that's the remains of off likely still giving plenty of cloud and that's what we're seeing over doha and gradually that's pushing its way across into iran as well we're still seeing a bit of rain all not system as well but most of that is held back to the coast and just over the border of oman in saudi arabia there and this region again could see a few more showers as we head through tuesday but the showers are confined to this area they won't drift anywhere for the north because the air is so dry at this time of year we impossible head a bit further south and we've got lots of wet weather here that's working its way towards cape town looks like a pretty soggy and windy day for us atop temperature of sixty. banks love to make loans to some friends because behind the suffering a millions of taxpayers because most taxpayers never go away is a new one born every single day and it is an urgent. quest.

officials over north korea to prepare for a possible summit between him and kevin jiang on next month and for the first time south korea says it's considering the possibility of a three way meeting with trump and kim in singapore and the leader of italy's populist five star movement wants president says you're much valid to be impeached after efforts to form a new government collapsed that comes after the president vetoed the prime minister designate just a contest choice of economy minister forcing him to give up trying to form an administration. let's get more on our top story now the runoff vote to elect colombia's new president johnson is a senior analyst for the international crisis group and he warns that tampering with the peace agreement may discourage other rebel groups from disarming. well the island specifically extreme are keeping a very close eye on this whole process not only on the elections but on the implementation of the fark agreement in general so any failings or any changes or
8:18 am
any sort of intentional. lack of will to implement a piece in or attentional attempt to change it would actually send a signal to the element of the colombian government not very trustworthy negotiating are there's a chance without a doubt if we get a president they can stop at the door someone who least is willing to say that they won't change the peace here and i think those divisions will end up actually getting in and these groups will come together a bit more because there's someone who may feel they can trust but as i still think violence is not completely off the table in colombia suture unfortunately right now we have various foreign dissident groups operating in different parts of the country that you know but and because the peace negotiation simply is not isn't sure and has been has made little progress in the time that it's been taking place is still operating militarily and so are different drug trafficking organizations throughout the country. fourteen people an hour to have died from

gaza. gaza is blockaded by israel on all sides sea included but this week two boats loaded with patients who need hospital treatment and students with university places will try to breach israel's sea blockade which begins sixteen kilometers out in the mediterranean the passengers have a strong determination to break this siege whatever the circumstances whatever the challenges whatever the obstacles that would have been that would be imposed by the israeli side gaza's hospitals are full of patients who need urgent medical treatment there are those injured in two months of protests and longer term cases at least now i have sixty five of them already admitted those who would want to go in the marshall for turn but there are many other cases of cancer in open heart surgeries and many other complicate newer surgical cases all the better cases all of them need to travel abroad because of shortage of possibilities india was by the israeli blockade in gaza strip and why can't they travel abroad because the bulk of

8:24 am
a violent one alternative but germany held a large rally outside the school the burly in main train station then marched through the streets to the brandenburg gate behind me where they held their actual demonstration and they heard speeches from the party leaders but it was a message which the protest has and there are more many more thousands of them on the streets of berlin than there were members of the alternative to germany they try to drown out the message of this party it first came into the parliament in the last elections with a bonus stake any more than ninety seats they are now the main opposition party in germany they've overtaken the green party and they're beginning to challenge the social democrats who are part of the grand coalition so there is a movement here towards the extreme right a populous movement a movement was called essentially by the large number of refugees more than
8:25 am
a million that came in and angela merkel's open open borders policy so this is a problem that's going to remain here in germany the fact that even in the blunder stark you're hearing paranoid racist senate phobic anti semitic remarks and you know hearing them in political rallies on the streets of berlin this is a problem that's going to be causing ructions within the grand coalition social democrats want to keep a liberal attitude towards refugees but merkel's parties trying to tighten up the borders restrict immigration two hundred thousand a year that's causing. attention he would in a grand coalition. we're going to see war seems like there's going to be a war for germany because now essentially they see this growing mainly the demographics of borders from east to collar workers the unemployed and all the people in eastern germany who fear their communities are being changed forever and
