the german chancellor, angela merkel, has issued a stark warning that europeans must take their destiny into their own hands. speaking at an election rally, mrs merkel said that europe would remain friends with america and the uk, but that it could no longer completely depend on them following the election of president trump and brexit. caroline davies reports. a loud reception and a giant pretzel, angela merkel received a large warm welcome campaigning in munich, but the german leader had less warm words for america and britain — german and europe can no longer rely on you. translation: we europeans must really take our fate into our own hands. of course, in friendship with the united states of america, in friendship with great britain, and as good neighbours wherever that is possible, also with other countries,

even with russia, but we have to know that we must fight for our own future on our own, for our destiny as europeans, and that is what i want to do together with you. unusually direct and passionate words for the chancellor, perhaps less of a surprise after the rather cool few days in the company of president trump. at his first meeting of g7, the american president refused to confirm whether he would commit to the paris accord, an agreement to reduce greenhouse gases to help combat climate change. angela merkel was not impressed. translation: the entire discussion about climate was very difficult if not to say very dissatisfying. but has she been too hasty? some political commentators think she might have been. i think it's somewhat irresponsible and she'll live to regret having said it, i'm sure. trump is still a president in progress, a work in progress, i keep saying.

we still have to hope for better days yet. merkel‘s relationship with the former us president barack obama was not perfect. there were allegations that the american national security agency had tapped her phone. good to see all of you. cheering and applause. but obama's rockstar welcome in berlin on thursday shows which president germany and her leader feel more comfortable with. under trump the gulf between the two countries is widening. the chancellor has four months until the german election. being pro—europe might win her friends at home, but beyond europe it might not go down quite so well. caroline davies, bbc news. the british security service — mi5 — is to carry out an inquiry into how it missed the danger posed by a suicide bomber who killed 22 people in the attack on the manchester arena. there have been claims

million and the united states at $130 million. significant tension still exists between russia and the west following the country's ongoing dispute with ukraine. and sanctions are still in place. they prevented export, oil drilling equipment. they also froze funding to some of russia's biggest companies. it is taking a toll on russia's economy. it entered recession in 2013. it showed signs of recovery at the start of this year. in sri lanka, expensive infrastructure projects are lying unused, even as the country is weighed down by chinese loans it took to build them. the economy is struggling with a debt crisis and so the sri lankan government is now being forced to controversially hand control of some of the projects to china.

the latest headlines: the german chancellor, angela merkel, has warned that europe can no longer completely depend on the united states and britain following the election of president trump and brexit. the british security service m15 is to carry out an enquiry into how it missed the danger posed by a suicide bomber who killed 22 people in an attack on a pop concert in manchester last monday. north korea has launched a short—range ballistic missile into the sea insidejapan‘s exclusive economic zone. the missile — the ninth to be launched this year — is thought to have been fired from near the coastal city of wonsan. japan has strongly condemned the move — a defiance of international attempts to rein in its nuclear programme. let's speak now our correspondent, steve evans, who's in seoul. we know what the military south

korea, japan and the us tell us is that it was apparently a scud missile which means short range. it is the third successful missile launch in as many weeks. so it indicates that the whole programme, north korea's missile programme, they appear to be ironing out lectures. this particular mix doesn't seem to be a new type. —— missile. they appear to be launching itself to reasons, the engineering and technology to get things right, the missile right, orfor the military to practise launching missiles and the indications are that this was the latter. this was pa rt that this was the latter. this was part of thing how to use something relatively well—known technologically. so the real point is three missile launchers in three weeks and three weeks is how long

the new softer spoken president of south korea has been in office. the south korea has been in office. the south korean military spokesperson in the last hour i said that they believe this is some sort of attempt to change policy from south korea towards the north? yeah. that is what they are saying. it isn't obvious how it would work because this new president, but i was talking about, came into power saying that he wanted more communication, indicating that he thought that dialogue with the north was the way forward. now, sceptics in south korea and beyond south korea may say that the new president has come in very, very different tone from his predecessor, and what he has got back is an unrelenting pattern of repeated missile launchers so it isn't quite clear how continuing to go on the old path

represents some kind of break with the old ways, which was absolutely no dialogue and no way of resolving this thing. short of simply going forward and north korea gets the nuclear missiles, the president trump in particular objects to so much. thank you, steve. steve evans live from seoul. as the uk prepares to leave the eu, british people will go to the polls next week. the vote will determine who leads the negotiations, and how strong a mandate they have. all this week, as part of our ongoing coverage, we've travelling britain, speaking to voters. today, we're gliding in berkshire with student alex and his instructor, phillip. bass, preparing launch. gliding for me is very peaceful. ——a very peaceful sport. it is terrifying and

one day the inspector steps at the back and set off you go and it is even more terrifying! it will be quite strange to note that for gliding use it for hours and travel hundreds of miles and not to have an engine for it. it starts off with you sat there quite quietly and beat goes from this launch point and creeping away. and then all of a sudden it hits you and you are gone! within a couple of seconds you are 45 degrees pointing into the sky. it is loud, everything is shaking and creaking and the new sort of reach the top and everything goes quiet. they welcome us down from university of southampton, just to get new people involved in the sport. to put it bluntly, everyone here is getting ona it bluntly, everyone here is getting on a bit. we give them stick because they are old and they gave us a stick because we are young and would never be able to buy a house. this

generation probably haven't seen the full picture like other people have, older people have seen. we saw mass unemployment. a lot of older people have been through this pain before. the younger people haven't seen it, they have been lucky really. when they have been lucky really. when the old people who have their houses and their big pensions and things like that, you need to balance it up with what they have been through ticket that. it hasn't been handed to them on a plate by any means. we have lifted and turned to the right. i think the biggest concern to my generation is house prices. it has become more difficult to get on the property ladder. rent is extortion we re property ladder. rent is extortion were expensive. i feel at the older generation, they think immigration is more important. the younger people would probably want us to stay in the eu. i can't personally understand why they would think that. i generally feel we are a lot better out of it. i think we have been dictated to a little bit too much. personally where i am working,

the opportunities are even better because of brexit. there seems to be some of the sliding scale between the two generations as to whether or not brexit was a good idea. i think it isa not brexit was a good idea. i think it is a shame really. i think co—operation with europe is one of the things that we should value. to shut that door just seems crazy to me personally. it's day two of the french open tennis this monday and if the drama of sunday is to be repeated, then fans of rafael nadal and reigning women's champion garbine muguruza might well be worried. fans have already seen the women's world number one knocked out but there was much more positive news for petra kvitova as she returned to action following a knife attack five months ago. patrick gearey reports. it has never ta ken it has never taken petra kvitova so much to reach the first round. just five months ago, everything was in doubt, a knife attack at her home left with tendon damage for on her

left with tendon damage for on her left hand. her playing hand. she only stepped onto a practice court earlier this month and has to rely on skill and stealth rather than strength. the first set one, the second followed with what seemed like comfort. this is the eighth tye to have made it to the second round of the french open. none would compare to this. it was a nice and really heartwarming welcome and my tea m really heartwarming welcome and my team was there and my family was there, everyone who helped me. through the difficult times. so i'm happy with the game, of course, but imean it happy with the game, of course, but i mean it wasn't really about the game today. next on court, angelique kerber, officially the world ‘s best but currently in far from it. such is her lack of form but to defeat to katarina makarova was a strangely unsurprising surprise. of course i am disappointed that the season was not so good. at the end maybe it is good that it is over for me but

yeah, now i don't know, i think i will go back home, or will do maybe a few days rest or a few more days, i don't know. at this time of year from piracy can always see venus, this the older venous system's11th opponent at roland garros. it was when her opponent was five. ill, no signs of slowing down. -- still. after 25 seasons with roma football club, francesco totti has played his final game which they won 3—2. the 40—year—old scored 307 goals in nearly 800 games for his hometown club. it's now likely he'll become a director at the club, although some reports have suggested he could look for another playing option, possibly in america. japan has a history—maker in motorsport. takuma sato has become the first person from his country to win the indianapolis 500 race. he took the lead with just five laps to go to deny the brazilian, helio castroneves, a record equalling fourth win. sato, who spent seven seasons as a formula 1 driver before switching, called
