a series of slides was the title seventeen proposition plan b. to lead it to the out of the euro that has been coauthored by a much r.l. and some other italian economist so he openly admits that he wants to leave the country out of the euro he is not only euro skeptic he is really hostile and he talks about the euro as a prison that italy is that sort of in caged in and that is sort of being made by germany and only profiting the the german economy so he has turned to be soo radical that much of obviously thought he was really in danger in the country and the future of the country mentoring is looking at the spread that it's the money that financial markets want to finance the government debt and this is the main problem italy has a huge amount of debt to the tune of two point two trillion euros this is one

hundred thirty percent of its yearly g.d.p. and that is so much money that any movements on financial markets construed the country absolutely into the abyss you mention savannah's hostile position towards the european union and the euro did brussels play any kind of role in getting his nomination overturned. officially not of course not because everybody's always very careful to avoid that however we've heard some warnings particularly from the french finance minister last week and from some of the european finance ministers who said please do stick to the roots do not do anything rash we have to find solutions together and don't sort of you know shake the bars to do anything that really in danger is the euro because italy is economically in such a precarious position that it might infect in danger of the whole euro zone and

that is the fear that everybody has here of course barbara what's next there's already talk of new elections this year. yes the next step is that the president much irrelevant talk to a former i.m.f. full fishel tomorrow somebody he hopes could be the head of the technocrat government an interim government to leave the country and talk about new elections now sort of looking at the fall of the some a break maybe september maybe october of course the populist parties who'd now feel duped and think they've been cheated from their victory they're furious and they're talking about impeachment against much orella which is more less impossible in the italian system and they're holding fiery speeches and so there is a lot of anger so the later new elections come the more the country gets the chance to think again and to sort of calm down a bit. of

a zone in brussels thank you. u.s. officials have arrived in north korea for talks on preparing a june summit between u.s. president doll of trump a north korean leader kim jong un that's according to a tweet from president trump the talks calm after south korean president moon jay and his north korean counterpart held a surprise summit on saturday their meeting focused on keeping the korean peace process moving after president trump canceled the june summit then signaled it may go ahead after all. germany's far right party took to the streets of berlin earlier today supporters of the anti immigration alternative for germany or f.t.e. gathered for a demonstration they've called a future for germany they showed up in the thousands but counter demonstrators were out in even greater numbers. go away go away they chanted demonstrators marching against the a.f.d.

an alliance of political parties labor unions and other groups organized the counter-demonstration together they mobilized an estimated twenty five thousand people to take a stand against the right wing populist says it's a good thing that the f.t. which pretends that represents the majority sees it doesn't we the cantar demonstrators are the majority. and they represented a broad cross-section of german society. in june of this. large as life think people should be tolerant and they should accept people the way they are . but it's not don't think it's right to spread hate trips which is what the f.t. does. in this god gets to it and i think it's great that there are so many young people i was afraid they might not be as politically active as before this is great but one thing is making. police came to it about five thousand a.f.d. supporters. it's just

a slum this was the land of our fathers and mothers and we wanted to stay the way they left it for us he is evil noble not. a f.t. speakers warned against islam is ation of germany and criticized the government's refugee policies supporters shouted americal must go more yes get out of the year right now i already feel like foreigners in our own country because we're afraid to go for a walk in the evening at seaton or going to a dolphin or hortatory can't even be a patriot anymore if you say you're proud of your country you get labeled a nazi. relation not your daughter this was going on. with the f.d.a. and it's rather you with the german national anthem. the cantar de mint. strangers still don't seem to take new ended their day by taking to the streets. and to the walters. i'm now joined by d.w.

correspondent thomas farrow who spent the day in the center of berlin monitoring that have the demonstration times you were there what was the main message from these demonstrators they want to differ and germany the demonstrators that i spoke to that if the demonstrators that i that i was told they oppose basically everything that is happening now in germany whether you're talking about the refugee policy we're talking about integration and we're talking about economic policy we're talking about social justice essentially the a fifty of the supporters of the a few that were there today against the way things are being handled now in germany and that was absolutely evident today that from now we know in september the f.t. pulled in more than twelve percent of the vote just over twelve percent of the vote there were demonstrators there we also cite cantor demonstrators there are more of them is any kind of indication that support for the f.t. is actually waning no it's an indication that that's the a if he represents exactly that around twelve percent of the german population who had the idea of the on the

one hand you had a wide variety of other groups on the other hand it was not only cultural groups or clubs you had also politicians political groups so it essentially represents that and it represents obviously another important aspect in my opinion namely that germany is divided that was absolutely clear i was standing today at one point on a bridge over billions main river you had in the one hand the demonstrators on the other hand those who were against it and you can you could clearly see it was not only a clash of opinions but it was also a clash of visions of where they want germany to go in the next few years maybe in the next few decades as well w. correspondent thomas sparrow thank you for your insight. polls have just closed in colombia where voters have been casting ballots to choose their next president preliminary results are expected in the hours ahead among the key issues at stake are the landmark peace deal colombia's outgoing president signed with marxist fark rebels two years ago right wing candidate even duke a says the deal is too lenient

on far he wants to jail former rebels for war crimes meanwhile leftist candidate was toppled pedro on the other hand backs the deal and his party is also not ruling out entering a coalition with mark's political party the trees signed in two thousand and six and a conflict that lasted decades and claimed hundreds of thousands of lives. you w.'s own ophelia the is following the story for us from bogota ophelia it's good to see you who is looking like the front runner at the moment. well we have no number said what we do know by now is that the participation was really high it was expected to be more than fifty percent but according to most polls what we would what we have been seen in past weeks is that event will probably lead this election with about forty percent of the votes this is not enough though to win the election today and become colombia's next president we will probably see

him in a run of vote on june seventeenth with. the second favorite and if this was to happen some have said that he would probably. look at would probably win the election but some others hope that that all will. probably gather the votes of the more center and candidates that are also running today. you just said the outcome may not be very evident after today but the future of the peace deal with the former fork rebels hangs in the balance no matter what the. very you do i don't view i just want to say if if even duke a was to win this election he would probably make major changes to the peace agreement he has already said that he would try to incarcerate jail members former far guerrilla members and he would try to even extradite them to the united states. it must be said though that the

current form of the peace agreement is safe for at least three periods which means he wouldn't be able to make major changes as quickly as he probably wants to but what we would probably see is that the implementation of the agreement with further slowdown for now we have only seen one third of the of the agreement implemented and that has not only made right wing candidates angry it makes also the left quite angry because they say the government hasn't been keeping the promises they made to former guerrilla members w. correspondent ophelia harmsworth the in bogota thank you. fans in the spanish capital are celebrating their footballing heroes real madrid who returned home after their three one win over liverpool in the champions league final defender sergio ramos was put in charge of looking after that trophy which some have nicknamed figures fans lined the streets to get
