4:02 pm
a regional court in germany to decide whether to grant the request. what's in store this year for the former catalan leader. remains behind the walls of this detention center in northern germany. and that's likely to remain the case after prosecutors in the state of. found spain's extradition request to be legally admissible. we take the statutory offenses listed in the european arrest warrant namely rebellion and best use of public funds correspond to the offenses under german law of high treason and misappropriation. we came to the conclusion that there is a correspondent. just over a week ago travel to finland from his self-imposed exile in belgium to attend a conference and meet game makers are facing arrest by finishing storage is he
4:03 pm
trying to return to belgium. but police detained him shortly after he crossed the danish german border ever since handfuls of his supporters have been demonstrating outside the northern german detention center where he's now being held. there we got him there if you remember that i see extradition is a betrayal of the european union's values. as a politician with ideals that oppose those of the spanish government a bit of difference is the basis of our coexistence in europe and they. didn't know about. the case no lines with. a regional court if it's judges approved extradition his lawyers could take the matter to germany's constitutional court so it could be weeks possibly months before a final decision. and why the story now with our political correspondent hans branch is with us and in our studio here. has been covering of the spanish angle of
4:04 pm
this story good to have you both with us hans let's start with you what were ousted german prosecutors say they have to seek the extradition of push him out to spain here. well this is all happening on the basis of a european warrant of a race that was issued by a spain this warrant lists two reasons why i've pushed upon should be extradited to the one reason is rebellion or sedition the other reason is the misuse of public funds both of these are in connection with the referendum held for council on next independence last year and a german prosecutor has now decided that both of these given reasons are adequate in terms of german know that there are equivalent charges that could be raised in german boy in other words an extradition according to the prosecutor is justified the prosecutor therefore has applied to the relevant court first of all for. independence leader to be detained in custody detained in prison pending
4:05 pm
extradition and second view the court will then decide whether or not to execute this extradition that's likely to take some time still ok but regardless public this is moving forward and if we do see the court rule in favor to extradite carlos pushed him out what is going to happen in spain well of course the charges that are being brought against catalyst which i'm on are incredibly serious a rebellion in the spanish people penal code and carries up to thirty years in prison what will more than likely happen if he is extradited back to spain as he'll be extradited back to madrid worldwide and seeing plenty of other former parliamentarian who were involved in this push for independence at the end of twenty seventeen in prison. on similar charges as well and so that would be probably the most likely scenario at there is also like cancer saying this is going to be a long process and i don't think we're going to be seeing any decision come quickly although by the looks of things spain wants to get this resolved as quickly as
4:06 pm
possible as with germany this is a huge political issue in spain pablo an onset something that the german government until now is that it wants to stay out of it once they leave this matter for the courts but could we see the government get involved after all. well in terms of german extradition though that is in fact a possibility for the government to take influence on the colts the citizen if there is a sense that the extradition reasons are political reasons but in this case the german government has said that the courts the judicial process should take its course and that the german government is in fact going to stay away from this is not going to interfere is not going to try and influence the court and is not going to revise the court's decision as it were i think the reason for that is simply that the german government and the spanish government germany and spain are close partners within the european union all this is happening on the basis of european
4:07 pm
union legal processes and in addition to that the problems that spain has with the qatari independence movement are regarded by germany and in fact by the whole european union as internal problems in spain that need to be resolved internally in spain so germany is going to stay away from this it's going to keep the things and hope for a resolution within spain that is indeed have a message we keep hearing from germany and europe this is an internal spanish affair and meanwhile pablo in catalonia the parliament is meeting today is there any reaction from the pro independence idea well they've already agreed to delegate catalyst for the months vote in the parliament so it will be passed on to somebody else but in reality i was there last week and one thing that's very clear is that there has been i don't go as far as saying condemnation for his detention in germany but certainly a lot of criticism geared towards germany for having at the tank out of this push on and now with this said decision by the prosecutor to push ahead with the
4:08 pm
extradition it's not welcome i spoke to many people on the street about this issue many people were shocked in fact that germany had decided to detain him in germany on the twenty fifth of march and there was a sort of a hope that perhaps. they wouldn't actually bring these charges against him you know there's a belief that the spanish court system among the pro independent side that he's not going to have a fair trial and they were hoping that germany would essentially back their their beliefs but like we're seeing that the german prosecutor has made his recommendation so i would say there's a lot of concern in spain about what the reaction is going to be on the streets this because there has been many many protests recently over this issue all right our reporter problem fully is with us here in studio and hans brandt our political correspondent thank you both very much for your analysis. that's some other stories making news around the world russian president vladimir putin is in the turkish

triangle region where the borders of thailand and laos meet. now to a walkout triggering a major travel chaos in france than we're talking about three months of rolling strikes this is really going to test president a memo macaws efforts to modernize one of europe's top economies it will also hit productivity and just as the report revealed today that foreign investment in france is it a ten year high well investors see the country on the road to reform but ask the french and how only shake their heads. tuesday morning at the god only on a major train station in paris. it's the first day of rolling strikes which are likely to continue for months. plus most think that this is catastrophic something needs to be done we're victims we haven't done anything wrong we need to get to work like everyone else this is normal. france's national rail operator s.n.c.f.
4:11 pm
says the strike will halt eighty five percent of france's high speed trains and three out of four regional trains. said i don't think we stopped at every train station no direct trains a commuter was unwell and here i am heading to work and needing to rush to get. the walk out as a serious test for french president. reform agenda to protest these plans the country's four main rail unions are planning to strike two days a week through june. i am reminding travelers to postpone their trips of possible if they didn't receive a text message confirming their train is running. and it's not just train workers electricity gas and sanitation workers in france are also taking part. well let's take you live to that crazy packed out station we showed you before god in the all out of for at least a louis is that these are still the crowd spilling onto onto the platforms and on
4:12 pm
to the tracks rather obviously a diet situation i've never seen people so diet to get to work but also a dangerous situation when you say. well absolutely for the people on the tracks especially lots of the illegal here in france will remain in most countries at least in europe now there were very few trains running this morning and the people who were opting for the train they were trying to get on one of these trains many people nevertheless have taken their collar they took the purse if they could the bus if they could to get to work now at this very moment the situation has rather calm down commuters who went to ark nevertheless who didn't stay home today they apparently made it in and we're now waiting for them to go back home tonight and maybe there might be more chaos to come or this is a situation calming down for commuters but what about investors what about the danger this poses to foreign investment three months rolling stoppages i mean that
4:13 pm
says a very bad signal when it does indeed it's obviously not the first strike that france is seeing people and know that strikes can happen in france and they can take a little longer but this one is important because everybody is looking at him and my car the french president who has promised to reform this country so it's important for him to stick to his promises to push through this reform if he wants investors to continue to have confidence in him reforming the country so this is indeed a very crucial crucial moment for the government obviously also for the unions who they say they actually want to show you that they have the upper hand and that they can actually stick to their demands and that they're going to go through this month's long strike and win in the end so let's see who wins the fight does anyone have confidence in him though that he can stop the stoppage. well he's going to
4:14 pm
try to stop them obviously well the strike is now announced the unions have set we going to go through with this so. it will be two days of strike and then three days of work for three months so it's going to go on for while obviously the unions will try to join forces with other strike means that other strikes in different sectors for example and it's the today or at. me and these people are trying to converge and find a common cause and then kind of fight together against all the reforms that the government is trying to push through but in my in my car for him it's very important to seek to his plans and he and his transport ministers minister they have said this morning again we're not going to give in and we're going to stick to what we want to do they also want to show their european partners obviously that they're able to push through reforms here in france in order to get some reforms pushed through on the european level ok we'll have to wrap it there lisa lewis for us in paris thank you. for business to come first back to sydney with an about face
4:15 pm
from israel's government today that's right ben it happened within a series of hours actually israel canceled a deal with the un to relocate african migrants to western nations it came just hours after the israeli government unveiled the agreement in the first place some hardliners had attacked the deal because it a lot suffered from eritrea and sudan have been living in israel for a decade there around thirty five thousand of them they say they have fled danger and persecution at home in israel they work illegally but the government wants them gone and offer them a stark choice leave the country voluntarily go to prison or be deported to an african country such as rwanda. is that the choice i'd rather go to jail i mean be safe there but many israelis and many supporters abroad condemns the plan an ethical must deportation so prime minister benjamin netanyahu turned to the united nations refugee agency for help. she should also. sixteen thousand two
4:16 pm
hundred fifty migrants will be sent to countries like canada or germany or italy or some of the world's most developed countries that's the commitment of the u.n. high commissioner. but that plan has also run into trouble hardliners say it allows too many migrants to stay in israel. that seems to be what has driven ness and yahoo to suspend the deal just hours after announcing it but it also remains unclear exactly how the u.s. deal would work. germany and italy both mentioned as possible destinations for the deported migrants were taken by surprise they had not been consulted although the german interior ministry said berlin always respected its humanitarian obligations . well earlier today we spoke with a spokesperson for the un refugee agency that brokered the original agreement with israel and we asked him if the israeli government had communicated its plans to cancel the deal. no we have just learned about this decision
4:17 pm
a few minutes ago but we are still hopeful that a solution will be found for asylum seekers who are in a very precarious situation in israel it's estimated that there's about thirty nine thousand of them most of them come from eritrea and so than. they are not able to return to this countries because the persecution human rights violations or areas where they come from are in conflict just hours after the deal was announced been netanyahu first suspended and then canceled at what gives you hope that there is still a chance for this agreement to go forward. well this is a very good dream and we think that the. it provides a solution for these people it also is in the interest of israel because it will be able to fulfill its international obligations but it will receive help from other countries and also the international community will play
4:18 pm
a very important role in showing solidarity with israel by taking some sixteen thousand of these. refugees and asylum seekers through resettlement but also through family reunification through sponsorship schemes through work and so on the same time the very important aspect of this agreement was that. asylum seekers would not be sent back to places in africa where they would not be safe and where they would have to continue taking long the interest journeys to find safety mr spenlow you say this is a good agreement also for israel but part of what has been controversial for the hardliners and benjamin netanyahu is government is the provision that some migrants will get the right to stay in israel is it possible to make amendments on that front. well we are very sensitive to the concerns of the
4:19 pm
residents of neighborhoods for instance in south tel aviv where many of these refugees and asylum seekers have been congregating these areas are congested there's so many social and economic issues that need to be addressed so we understand why there are some things in between the residents of this that neighborhood. suydam seekers and that's why the agreement also provides for encouraging. mechanisms to encourage asylum seekers to move out of this neighborhood store the parts of east where not to bleed through the means of trading schemes where they would be. getting some skills that are in high demand in this royal reese areas for instance at the culture gay shown solar power and so on where israel has a lot of expertise and knowledge and where there east a need for workers so some of this asylum seekers could be trained to work in these areas. or spokespersons the united nations refugee agency thank you very much for

a loud opening on wall street today and i've been lots of music yes big story the business world series me and a very loud one the world's biggest music streaming service going public spotify was founded over a decade ago but the swedish company is yet to make a profit last year sales surged by was thirty nine percent to over four billion euros that sounds good but the losses also mounted from five hundred thirty nine million euros to almost one and or a billion and spotify its revenues come from users who pay to listen to music stream directly from its internet platform in the company has a catalog of thirty five million songs and seventy one million subscribers so the i.p.o. is highly anticipated but analysts question the timing given the tech fueled slide for equities today and the market turmoil over the u.s. china trade dispute that corresponded how that rao could drown out the music over spotify. well i think first of all i think it's not hard to guess what kind of
4:34 pm
company is going public today you can hear it probably but all in all of course investors are nervous about these tensions and of course they could theoretically impact the i.p.o. i.p.o. here off spotify because all in all investors might be willing to pull back more because they're simply nervous about the attention. that the music business is cut for we all know that what does fortifies chances though as a listed company. well of course spotify has huge competitors apple music for example growing really really quickly of course but if i is still the market leader here but there's one important think even if they are not planning on giving new shares out right now there are planning on having that currency off shares in the future in order to raise capital and of course that's a very important possibility here for spotify and briefly this is the new york
4:35 pm
stock exchange first. straight to the market without an intermediary an investment bank. is this a good time for experiments. probably not if you look back on this week the nasdaq was down dramatically the indices that were down the dow jones were down but spotify and some people thought they would actually pull back and front before that spotify i.p.o. but they didn't because they know they have something to gain for investors and they are hoping that it's going to be growth. so if you ask you they're on a proud new york stock exchange floor around up by the music from spotify thank you . now it's the chip makers that are weighing down the tech sector today there are reports apple is planning to use its own chips in computers replacing intel processors twenty twenty apple counts for five percent of intel revenues.
4:36 pm
since two thousand and five apple has been using intel chips and its computers but now the tech giant wants to change that the move is said to be part of the biggest strategy to make apple's devices work together in a more seamless way the company wants to use its own chips and its books and imax according to bloomberg news but when it comes to revenue the mac doesn't play a major role in the i phone continues to be the clear winner for apple in the first quarter of twenty eighteen computer sales only accounted for just under eight percent of its revenue but despite declining sales for the overall p.c. market in recent years sells for macs rolls in twenty sixteen and twenty seventeen apple's decision to stop using intel processors in its computers is bad news for the chip maker it depends on p.c. sells for more than half of its revenue but for apple the move is more than just about how many eyes and its products experts say it wants to reduce its reliance on other companies. and i'd like to see this apply to turning up to

4:46 pm
kind of audio hopes she'll be released sometime this year it will be a second chance for her and her family. it's the right time for since fourth now in champions league football with matt harmon from the to abuse for its high math thank you for joining us so byron munich they're visiting sivia in the first leg of the quarterfinals this evening it has been five years since firings won the champions league is tonight going to be straightforward for them oh more straightforward than if they had had to play barcelona real madrid or manchester city who's of the teams to avoid i think that sylvia should be doable all right well let's take a look at what they're up against. byron haven't won the champions league since twenty thirteen every season since they've crashed out against spanish sides. but coach opined case is keen to point out the things were very different when he was last in charge. when i was here in two thousand and twelve and twenty thirteen we
4:47 pm
beat to spanish teams to reach the final. the two best teams in the history of spanish football barcelona and real madrid. is so for me the last four years aren't relevant. severe may not have as impressive a record in europe as spain's top two sides but they have won the europa league three of the last four seasons. they're also on a high after knocking manchester united out in the last round. someone tele says the key to success is taking the game to buy and. buy a used to scoring lots of goals in every game they used to having control of the ball we have to do the same and keep the ball for as long as possible that way you force them to do something they're not used to. but shutting down by and will be no easy task they scored eight goals against us in the last round and six against
4:48 pm
dortmund at the weekend. the scene is set for a classic champions league encounter. massey said you know by lucky not to be facing off against were all are ready for example so they were lucky with the draw this time around but it does look like storm clouds are gathering for next season this might be byron's best chance to win the champions league for years really did indeed i mean they have your punters now and they won't have him next year he was the one who led them to their last twenty thirteen he's leaving at the end of the season that's said he's always going to do that but you know this is by am they've always in with a shout the advances for them this year is that they're very much in form mean witnessed the six thrashing that they put dortmund through on the weekend and they have very few injury worries i mean their number one goalkeeper has been out for six months but his back up has really proved himself and you know have not suffered because of that last i mean the one thing that's tricky for them is that every year
4:49 pm
you can basically say that byron barcelona and real madrid go into the beginning of the tournament as favorites and as yet none of those teams have been eliminated so by only to get through those teams and as well as to via this evening if they want to win this title well it's not just by there's another a juicy quarter final first leg tonight yeah yeah this one is actually probably an even bigger glamour tie considering the names involved in this is are at home to real madrid and you know you ventus went into this match after a bit of a squeaker in the round of sixteen against tottenham hotspur however they are unbeaten in the league and cup and champions league in the calendar year of twenty eighteen they're in very very good form. you know on the other hand real madrid absolutely smashed their last time in this competition they you know beat. five two over two legs in paris and thought of themselves as favorites i mean this is also
4:50 pm
a replay of last. final which real really one very easily let's have a look at what is in the things that the coach of real madrid had to say about this he's not really too interested in that angle unfortunately. this match is completely different from how many moments of passed since the final against event eight months ten months so it's nothing to do with this match what happened happened. what happened happened ok quick predictions for tonight what will happen is two one wins for both away sides raelyn by a reduced rate you heard it here matt herman from davis four thank you very much man. paintings by gary castle it's one of the world's most successful contemporary art he celebrated his eightieth birthday in january have been quite a number of exhibitions around the world marking this milestone. and we have robin
4:51 pm
merrill from our culture desk here to tell us more about it hi robin ok there's an exhibition of just one element of his work and dress and what is special about this one well this is. that says interest in mannerism mannerism was a late start in the sixteenth century renee's concentrates on proportional balance on the ideal of beauty and mannerisms sort of exaggerated was allowing to exaggerate all those things that i'm not surprised that appeals to someone like that's because he can overdo things he can stretches the imagination and the the exhibition. comparing all. with the work but it's also in his home because he comes from there dressed. prince by boston it's neat works of people old monsters. dura sponsons in dresden scoop fifty cabinet prints by balls let's engage in an
4:52 pm
exciting dialogue with works from the sixteenth century mosque. i don't want to say i'm wonderful but it works wonderfully well it looks very good. it's a belated birthday present to get your bastille it's from the dresden art collections the artist born in deutsch posited saxony refused to be a realist painter in communist east germany once in the west he refused to be abstract instead he turned his painting upside down although really his graphic works bartlett's is one of the most successful painters alive today he always believed in artistic rebellion and provocation. is the one person voices up position that's enough i think you have to do that as an artist but who else is going to do it sounds were not elected we don't need a majority we don't do anything people want us to do we don't do what the
4:53 pm
government wants we don't do what the church once we do only what art works with us with the goods. today basil it lives in austria but he often comes back to saxony is the superstar of the art scene hung sick. but if you know of i'm often here as you grow older you get more we be in a sentimental and sure if i can exhibit in dresden it's a great honor but this is a truth because. through the lens of the old masters we get a fresh take on an artist that we otherwise known as a painter of oil on canvas and bottle it's himself seems to be pleased with his confrontation with you mortals of art history. but he's famous for these upside down paintings how does he do that well the obvious he doesn't hang upside down otherwise he would have reached his age if. also he doesn't you know paint
4:54 pm
a bit and then go. oh. the fact is he has for some time and he does most of his paintings the floor so he can sort of move around the i guess he can move around the painting and get the perspective that he wants why does he do that upside down well yeah many thought that he started doing this is sort of give me but he's actually been doing it since nineteen sixty nine so it's forty nine isn't nearly the fiftieth anniversary of him doing nearly most of his stuff upside down now he says it's about the perspective of you should concentrate on the lines in the marts of the painting rather than its resemblance to reality let's have a look at a couple of paintings first of all there's a portrait which is up the right way you speak to me that's the way. that it's wants it but actually i think we're going to turn it now and that's something i don't know have it does lose its thing and becomes more one dimension it loses
4:55 pm
a bit of warm and i find that i hope people could use can see that this one better this is a landscape now that is up the right way according to lives and when you do. the perspectives actually completely different they're really quite and. that really is what he's talking about so many people full first of all was the book publicity stunt is actually really his trade well it is really interesting to look at that's for sure and there's more on there was a lesson a website there is a deed every dot com slash culture on this rather unique exhibition of other works of his. cabinet interest until the end of may all right robin merrill our culture editor thank you very much. you're watching. that's all we have time for right now but layla iraq will be frank here at the news desk in just a few minutes with an update on all of the head like food.
