just because you can see violence against children doesn't mean it isn't there make the invisible visible of us might violence against children disappear. this is t w news coming to you live from berlin. britain's theresa may appeals to e.u. leaders to break the brakes at stalemate she urges them to move on to trade talks as soon as possible i'm going to michel is the but she says the u.k.

has to do more before progress can be made also coming up catalonia crisis has nothing to do with us the e.u. says it's a domestic spanish issue and that it will not intervene as spain gets ready to impose direct rule on the region. and the syrian mother managed to flee the war in her homeland now all she wants is to be reunited with her three children and we explain why some germans want to prevent this from happening. hello i'm terry martin thanks for joining us. british prime minister theresa may has urged leaders to agree to a bragg's it deal that she can defend to people in the u.k. at an e.u. summit last night she also asked them to approach the issue with more urgency may

wants to move talks on to the u.k.'s future trading relationship with europe but you leaders want to negotiate divorce terms first despite the deadlock and america has said she's confident a deal will be reached. i whispered exchange and stony expressions chancellor merkel president and prime minister may were already deep in conversation at the outset of a summit where brags it is set to dominate me renewed her call for argent movement on trade talks of course will also be looking at the concrete progress that's been made in our exit negotiations and looking at setting out ambitious plans for the weeks ahead but e.u. leaders were not impressed they are the british prime minister to match her goodwill pledges with concrete proposals on the rights of e.u. citizens in the u.k. and london's plans in regards to its brakes in bell but you're back to walk. but are you ready to fulfill your financial obligations may said in florence that they

would work it was a good speech but now we also need to see more meat on the bone. anglo-american chose to pursue her own agenda she joined emmanuelle mccrone for a coffee and a chat about reforming the european union and then there was the issue of turkey's bed for e.u. membership while merkel stopped short of calling for an end to a session talks he pressed other leaders to cut you funding for the bed. he said to add to no mention of the human rights situation is absolutely and satisfactory so is turkey's moving away step by step from what we see as a state under the rule of law and of course they also talked about how we suffer from the situation that german citizens have been wrongfully jailed in turkey. and thirty seven years in the took office and. to resume a left the summit empty handed after pressing her cunt parts over dinner for

a deal she can defend at home on day two leaders will gather for more discussions on bragg's it less time without the protest prime minister. more now let's cross over to brussels where our correspondent is standing by a lot to talk about this e.u. summit theresa may asking the e.u. to to hurry up and help her silence her critics back home that sounds rather desperate. it does indeed terry and of course she is under enormous pressure to deliver on bracks it back home and to deliver. a proposition that does not involve a huge check or at least not a detailed numbers and that is exactly what seems to block these talks at the moment now the good news is that her fifteen minute speech over dinner last night left a good impression with leaders a lot of praise for a candid speech she had the right tone is what leaders that when the in life this morning for a breakfast breakfast with the chief yoshi it or they will they're very likely not

to move things to face number two to their possible trade talks but they were very positive about preparing these trade talks possibly for for a december december summit would be for december talks on these issues but the pressure remains high luxembourg's prime minister put it this way he said. it's like waiting in a land that plane and a ground plane you wait for passengers to come and if they don't come you fly and they will have to take the bus ok that brags that what about catalonia leaders again there at this summit ruled out any involvement by the e.u. still all eyes must be on prime minister mariano rajoy there. absolutely and a much awaited press conference by the spanish prime minister has now been shifted towards lunch time he mentioned the catalonian issue over dinner yesterday

night there were a number of questions asked but our diplomats told me that there was no debate over the issue the european union treats this topic very much as an internal affair and so they hope to stay out of this deep deep spanish conflict in your relations with turkey also on the agenda there are understand in brussels german chancellor angela merkel wants to cut funds for turkey's accession bid how much support does she have for that within the e.u. i'm going by my activists very keen to put this onto the agenda and if you look at the council conclusion it says only that the council had a debate over this now i don't just double checked with a high ranking diplomat and he told me that basically what the council agreed to is to look into the affair they agreed that the commission should make a proposal how to cut or to reallocate the accession funds that turkey currently receives but that does not mean that they will effectively cut these funds for that

they will need another summit to decide that garrett thank you so much garrick matters there in brussels. well as we mentioned at that you summit there in brussels the e.u. leaders are talking about catalonia in spain but they're citing not to get in or intervene still catalonian separatists are calling for a special kind of protest action today and that has markets a little jittery earlier today terry yeah catalan separatists taking aim at those banks which have flooded out of the region of catalonia in the wake of that referendum result now tweeted a message to the two hundred seventy thousand follow us cattle and national assembly urged supporters to take part in a bank run this morning talking to the five main banks in catalonia so for now between eight and nine a.m. central european time separatists were called on to go to the bank and to take out as much cash as possible it's not clear at the moment how many people have heeded

that cool but that mass withdrawals aimed at condemning those banks which shifted their headquarters from boss of owner it's also a protest against the imprisonment of cattle and separatist leaders. well let's talk to our financial correspondent now calling out abuse in frankfurt forrest conrad me what is this is a dangerous escalation furthur business in catalonia do you think. good morning helena well i think it's not immediately dangerous for the banks in catalonia as it looks more like a creative form of protest than a dangerous attack on the ability of the banks in catalonia to do business but i think this protest brings about an aspect of this conflict in catalonia that often gets forgotten in the destructor discussion the separatist movement in qatar alone year for decades has also had at least in parts of very anti capitalist touch to it

which means that the idea of getting rid of madrid in barcelona not only has to do you know with the coziness of nation building it also has to do with protests against the people up stairs that don't listen enough to what hardworking people need now the european union has said it has no mandate to moderate in this conflict but in light of some of that economic uncertainty should it change its mind perhaps . well i think at least the european union and you know the heads of state meeting in brussels there today should attentively listen to what's going on they desperately need to make everyone understand in europe that they're not detached from what people want and so i think it's not enough for the european union to say what's going on in catalonia is none of our business conduct abuse in

for us in frankfurt thanks then i will speak to you again in just a moment's time well catalonia is not the only region wanting to break away in fact right here in the european union a number of regions are making their cases for autonomy and in belgium and italy economists are counting the costs of their countries becoming that little bit smaller. first the cattle lands. then the northern italians including venice. as well as the flemish in belgium there are many regions in europe that are seeking independence and experts fear that it could erode the european union as good as a. few fake it could expand and could continue and there is a fear it will catch on and then the community of twenty eight states will begin to crumble around the edges like a stale cake and fall apart because i have a whole lot of title of. the separation of these regions like flanders would be an

economic catastrophe for the national government flanders contributes fifty eight percent of belgium's economy. the regions of venice a number that are also striving for independence represent thirty one percent of italy's economy. that's into some to buy these nuts and the interesting thing about these nationalists like the cattle hands is that they are pro european nationalist contrary to the likes of maria let's handle france they want their countries to remain in the european union i can not stop. if one of these regions does gain independence it must first exit the e.u. the date for the reentry would be uncertain. this club will see and hear from a few yards from i think it would sooner be five years than five weeks or months and gave in catalonia would be accepted immediately as an independent state then all the region still applying for membership would have every right to complaining

about automatic stuff and talk to a. venice and the rest would have to go to the back of the line none of the affected regions are willing to compromise the conflicts for independence will weigh down on europe for years to come. a tweet from the c.e.o. of the investment bank goldman sachs annoyed blankfein is spock speculation that more jobs are set to move from london to frankfurt amid brigs it uncertainty blankfein tweeted quote just the frankfurt great meetings great weather really enjoy it good because i'll be spending a lot more time that hash tag brags it well britain is currently home to most of goldman's european operations where has around six thousand employees frankfurt scenes the biggest beneficiary from wall street banks moving out of the british capital back over to colorado in frankfurt then so conrad i can imagine frankfurt's real estate agency agents celebrating.

absolutely helen there frankfurt is a real estate boom town at the moment and goldman sachs which recently at least. the office space here in frankfurt for up to one thousand people five times more than the staff that has been working so far for the bank here in frankfurt. is not the only bank to migrate to frankfurt deutsche bank recently talked about how it's building double structures parallel structures in both london and frankfurt in order to be able to service its customers whatever the outcome of the breaks of negotiations will be and you know it's funny i think the longer the politicians fail to agree at least on transitional agreements for the brakes it the more accelerated this process of movement by the financial industry from london to the continent will be absolutely cannot abuse in

a first in frankfurt thank you. u.s. president donald trump is one step closer to pushing through his controversial tax overhaul after the senate now already approved a budget bill for next year and the planned tax reforms include a drop in the corporate tax rate from thirty five to twenty percent republican supporters say that the cuts will spur growth but democrats say that the one point five trillion dollar cuts nara mary benefit the super rich and as well that they'll cause suffering to ordinary workers so let's take a listen now to what senator bernie sanders had to say. this the president this is not a bad budget bill it is and horrific budget bill and extremely cruel bill and the most unfair budget ever presented at the bottom history of our country at a time of bessel in common wealth inequality this budget provides one point nine trillion dollars in tax breaks for the top one percent at

a time when millions of working families are struggling to keep their heads above water up this budget cuts medicaid by a trillion dollars fifteen million americans could lose their health the charts this is a budget that poll after poll shows the american people do not want well germany slowly getting closer to forming a government terry has the latest on that now small steps being made here hélène a very small talk's for building a new coalition government officially got underway here in berlin today nearly a month after the election this week has seen german political parties meet to pave the way for to go she actions that could lead to a hope for governing coalition between the conservatives the greens and the democrats topping the agenda is europe climate and replacing the current plan to spend a storybook on choice but germany's money master since two thousand and nine has

stepped aside to become president of the parliament i think and of course another main topic will be how to deal with the hundreds of thousands of refugees that have come to germany of the past couple of years spent minutes with one syrian woman who is waiting to see whether her family will be able to follow. we meet up with simon to be a year off to her german lessons this is how her day starts here in berlin without her children or husband. she tells us about her escape from syria it all happened in twenty fifteen she had to leave her three children behind that's what her husband wanted. now he's imprisoned in syria she's alone in berlin and her children are in syria without their parents. back then i decided to leave the country

in the hopes of helping my children by starting anew and then bringing them here. that was my own thank all. we joined her as she goes to help center for family reunification. in the hallway she shows us pictures of her son and two daughters. here they are with their grandmother. sebastian movie helps her deal with the situation he's had a lot to do since twenty sixteen when the german government stopped refugees like osama from reuniting with their families it was supposed to only last for two years but now the conservatives want to extend the suspension. but at least and

first of all this means is that families are separated for years the parents are separated from their children that's houses are separated for years for a period of time that has no definable end and that's very hard for families to deal with that it's catastrophic. loss. of. the conservatives want to make sure that germany is not overrun with reunited refugee families. even at the christian church conference the interior minister of germany justified this measure although many see it as unchristian this is it's not right to send under-age children away in the hopes that their parents will be allowed to come here later we won't reward this behavior that's a tough measure to take but it's necessary when you look at the current reality of this refugee crisis. in the advice center shows us her favorite passage in the

german constitution article six the special protection of marriage and family since the telephone lines to syria are disrupted all osama has are these photos. i keep getting photos of my children but that only makes it worse because i cannot experience them firsthand. oh simon's last hope is german politics her dream is that someday she will be allowed to live a life in safety together with her children. let's take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world today more than half the routines of muslims who fled violence in myanmar are children that's according to the latest u.n. estimates a unicef report says nearly three hundred forty thousand children are living in squalid conditions in bangladesh camps and up to twelve thousand more arrive every

week unicef says many are mel nourished and are traumatised by the atrocities they've witnessed. police in los angeles have launched an investigation into harvey weinstein after another woman accused him of rape and assault allegedly took place in two thousand and thirteen police in london and new york also open cases against the film producer weinstein denies all allegations of known consensual sex. in a speech delivered in new york former u.s. president george w. bush has been warned that politics in the u.s. seems to have become more vulnerable to conspiracy and what he called outright fabrication are bush's comments have been seen as an attack on president though bush did not mention trump by name as can get. a new drone footage from the syrian city of rocket is revealing the devastation after weeks of fighting between u.s. backed forces and so-called islamic state militants entire neighborhoods have been

turned to rubble. ceremony is planned for friday to mark the liberation of the city from i asked forces. iraqi army are reported to be clashing with kurdish forces north of the city of kirkuk the hostilities are said to be taking place around thirty five kilometers north of the city on the road to the kurdish capital. earlier this week the iraqi army retold kirkuk in response to a kurdish vote for independence oh mala he has begun returning to parts of the city but some kurds say they feel humiliated by the events of the last few days. in some ways life is getting back to normal incur cook shops are open and the streets are calm but many of the kurds have remained here feel abandoned. we've been sold off by america and the european countries as long as they needed us

they used us. here in our. kurdish peshmerga forces took that oil rich city of kirkuk after iraqi troops abandoned it in two thousand and fourteen they fought alongside iraqi troops against so-called islamic state and helped liberate much of northern iraq from the extremist groups. but now with iowa's forces gone iraqi troops are reclaiming lost territory kurdish military leaders have chosen to leave their positions rather than fight for some here that's a bitter pill to swallow as we've been humiliated by the ruling kurdish parties they broke our dignity these people caused the poor people of this city to be killed here. peshmerga troops keep falling back closer and closer to the borders of their own territory.

there is one big reason for the conflict northern iraq is rich in oil which is iraq's economic lifeblood it's also an essential part of the kurdish economy losing care cook has cut oil production in kurdish controlled territory by half and that makes forming a kurdish state already a long shot even harder. sports now and europa league soccer it was a mixed night for german teams had to berlin last to one a ukrainian side soria while hoffenheim beat istanbul as shown here three one for their first ever european win and there appears to be no end in sight to colognes dreadful start to the season. side went down one nil to herself and be able to use colognes hopes of picking up their first win in any competition in eleven games were dashed when alexei rios found the back of the net in the second half worrying times at cologne. and in bonus league in soccer tonight schalk

a take on mines with the well supported club hoping to jump into the top four it's been a typically inconsistent start to the season for the gals in chicken side but there are signs of notable improvement for shell his sporting director the home game with mines is particularly important. shouted coach dominica to desk and sporting director christine heigl a feeling upbeat before the match with titles explode minds' title move from eyes to shout to last year but his first season was a flop with shock of failing to reach europe this term things may be looking up if last weekend's two know when it has a bilin becomes the norm shelter in good form as they look to down heigl's old side . so to should be an acquittal it always feels weird even if personally i wanted nothing else than a shelter win even if it is against mines of course i wish mine's all the best but only shell can kinds it's. hydel took

a risk in appointing thirty two year old to disco as coach for the season to deskilled only coached eleven games in the german second division with the hour before getting the call but another win against mines will push out into the champions league places. as we were trying to focus just on minds that is one hundred percent are i'm sure there are a team who will test and thinking about anything else would be stupid and it was on the suiting. to desk it was right to be wary of the mines moved up to tenth last weekend with a three two win over hamburg game on. sailing on the longest and durrance sailing event in the world of all the ocean race begins this weekend in the spanish port city of l.a. county the competition is held every three years and will finish in eight months time in the dutch city of the hague this year the race is all about equal opportunity is he has more thing. this year's volvo ocean
