trying to block its progress through central berlin thousands of police were deployed to keep them apart. some polls have just closed in colombia's presidential election and a vote that could have an impact on the country's peace process we'll find out what's at stake. and having a quad and welcome to the program italy's prime minister designate just set the conti has given up on our first to form a government this comes after his list of ministers wasn't fully approved by president sergio who rejected the would be coalitions choice of finance minister conti have been selected by the populist five star movement and the far right league but it now appears the two parties may not have a chance to govern. with limited political experience

italy's coalition parties choice for prime minister was always going to be considered unconventional naija sepic conta has confirmed he won't leave the country. i rejected the mandate to form a government that was offered to me by president matter rather i can assure you i have given all of my efforts and all of my attention to this task and i have worked in a climate of maximum collaboration. you know. it all centers around this man. the league and five star parties had put him forward as their candidate to head the economy and finance ministry the euro skeptic has asked whether italy should stop using the euro as its official currency that's the last thing the president wants.

to the nomination for the economy ministry delivers an immediate message of trust or an alarm to the financial world i asked for that ministry to be taken by a notable figure from the majority political party or. to someone who was aware of the program someone who does not support the policy which was often announced by the coalition parties the source of action which could provoke or lead to add to the leaving the euro. zone or the president's decision to reject the candidate has angered many of it to these political figures not least the leader of the five star movement who suggest in matters rather be impeached for betraying the state. let me say this clearly turning out to vote is pointless in this country because the ratings agencies choose the government. even when the citizens with over fifty percent of consensus between two political forces who want to change things and want to represent italians and their interests

in the end a way always seems to be found to block the people's will. president matzoh rather has summoned former international monetary fund director carlo qatar daily for talks a further attempt to end the long running political impasse in a country which could soon face the prospect of snap elections. to talk about what's unfolding this hour of a as all joins us from our brussels studio barbara why does president matter of the least of all the as finance minister would cause instability. so of owners an eighty one year old italian economist who used to be part of the chief industry it's really in the ninety's however since then he's made a radical turnaround and now in social media you find a series of slides was the title seventeen proposition plan

b. to lead it's only 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 lead 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 and 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 so radical that much real 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 italian government debt and this is the main problem italy has a huge amount of death 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 the financial markets can throw the country absolutely into the abyss you mentioned civil and i was 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 is 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 don't do anything that really in danger is the euro because italy is economically in such a precarious position that it might infect endangered 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 talked to

a former i.m.f. official 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 after the some a break maybe september maybe october of course the populist parties to 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 or 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 the bit. of easel in brussels thank you. u.s. officials have arrived in north korea for talks on preparing

almost forty percent of the vote something we had already seen in the latest polls this is not enough though for him to win today which means he will have to face. and the second run a vote on june seventeenth. is forty one year old a lawyer who has a little political experience he was a senator and he just supported coal mining he does support fracking and he has said like you already told us that he wants to make major changes to the peace deal that president times has signed with the marxist rebels ophelia the outcome may not be set in stone just yet but it does impact the future of the peace deal the president santos has negotiated you can peytral have very different views when it comes to far if duke a does end up in the president's office what happens to this peace process well he has already promised that he will make

major changes especially regarding the punishment of the former guerrilla members he wants to see them incarcerated which isn't happening they have a special jurisdiction. that is judging them he wants to see them in jail and once to maybe even extradited some of the leaders of the former guerilla group he will probably not be able to do this as quickly as he was he wants to be because the peace agreement is safe in its current form for at least three periods but what we can see is that he will probably stop and slow down further implementations of the process that has already been quite slow so far we've only seen the implementation of about one third of the of the agreements three just in ana w. correspondent of ruthie in bogota thank you very much. to sports now and fans in the spanish capital are celebrating their footballing heroes real
