a toddler in paris and the french president personally thanking the twenty two year old for his astonishing rescue after it goes viral can we live without them single use plastic in face of the famine in the european union the blonde generates twenty six million tons of plastic waste every year plus memories of a time when turks were free to speak out today marks five years since antigovernment protests erupted in istanbul's gazey part for me to a group of turkish artists to find out how the film movement has impacted their lives and works at liverpool goalkeeper laura's carious has been targeted by threats after committing to nightmare errors that handed victory to rio madrid in the champions league final on saturday.
8:02 pm
thanks for your company everyone always start our broadcast in italy that country has in limbo at least new caretaker prime minister has promised to do all he can to steer the country out of its political crisis the president of italy asked carlo carli to form a government after the collapse of a would have been at least first populist administration to really doesn't plan to stay in office for long he's promised new elections by the beginning of next year and lee has been without government since march. this is the man with the monday to form italy's interim government a moderate and former official at the international monetary fund he is a firm believer in the european union and the single currency. the other local new role of the north in a dialogue with europe to defend our interests is essential we can do better than we did in the past but it has to be a constructive dialogue fully acknowledging that as a founding member our continuous participation in the eurozone remains essential.
8:03 pm
after the coolish and parties put forward a staunch euro skeptic is the economy and finance minister the president pulled the emergency brake rejecting the formation of a new government. it's the establishment versus the new kids on the block an italian politics. the president trying to keep what he considers to be tens of his populist policies. leaders of the coalition parties in turn accused the political old guard of acting autocratically. it seems anyone who has criticized the euro or europe is considered to be no good as a minister. if this is the case we have a big problem in italy. it's called democracy this is not a free democracy. the league in five star parties had spent days
8:04 pm
drawing up a coalition pact aimed at ending a stalemate following inconclusive elections in march. their agenda is to tear up the political rulebook but they may have gone too far shoppers in rome seem to side with the president. i'm absolutely pro european and i believe that italy is connected and must have a connection reviewer for future. but in a sort of lot of people receiving at a certain point the president who looks after the constitution sees that things are moving in a direction that he doesn't want him in my opinion he simply applied the constitution . you have a feeling. some took the political turmoil with a sense of humor you know after proper to paku it's the same old minister but we are totally and so it's normal we managed to get by so viva tahlia.
8:05 pm
if conoco to really is confirmed by a majority in parliament he will plan for new elections next year if he fails to go near enough support the talents could be heading to the polls again much sooner. well joining me now is evenness call for auto he joins us from rome he is the italian secretary of state for international trade and investment a very warm welcome sir you support a prime minister a former prime minister but they were enzi who famously was also going to offend the established order in italy deaden exactly work out these search parties who won the election the far right league and the populous five star movement also define themselves as big disruptors by appointing karl look at a rally has the president acted out of line did he commit an impeachable offense by playing such an outsized role. well first of all let me say that they
8:06 pm
changed their own scene business that was strongly within the european union and within the europe this new parties are claiming that easily should get out probably of the european of at least of the euro or they wanted to appoint a minister of economy who for years as preached that italy was sort of being betrayed by europe and germany because it belonged to the euro which we we don't think it is the case by the way the precedent just applied the constitution in may in my opinion quite correctly the president of the republic in italy is the supreme guarantee for democracy and democracy is not just the will of majority but it's also the limits because the constitution of course is there to protect everyone not only the majority and in this case where our commitments that each of us taken on the international stage and also there is the duty of the president to
8:07 pm
protect the savings of the talents that have been probably g'kar dies in the last few weeks since the spread between the talian bombs and the german bombs skyrocketed after the program of these new parties was published all right so if i understand correctly of the president it forms is part of a checks and balances system in the taliban government the to your point though italy has traditionally been one of the most federalist member states of the e.u. a proponent of ever closer european integration we have of course the treaty of rome after all has that all been up ended. well i think in the last few years there has been a very serious issue that europe has shaved in managing which is the issue of immigration italy as being of course it only has almost eight thousand kilometers of shores in the mediterranean sea and we've been the of course the arrival point
8:08 pm
of many people who were not longing to come to europe it's usually they were long to come to europe but italy has been left alone with greece and with motor maybe to manage this flow of immigrants a lot of countries that receive huge help and huge monetary sustained support by the european union failed to keep their commitments and of course the need to immigration has been a big issue in the electoral campaign and of course europe has been felt distant from one issue that we were managing on behalf of the twenty eight countries so there's not just eataly right so there was essential abandonment there's a sense of abandonment step along the italian electorate i just have thirty seconds left so what next what does this all mean for italy and for europe of course this new government headed by court that only will go to the parliament and we look for
8:09 pm
it to get a confidence vote most likely this is not going to happen so we expect most likely do group to go back to elections in september or october thank you even scuffled author of talking to us from rome for spending time with us thank you very much. and with the country in the limbo how in the how is this all playing out on the markets volatility is certainly order of the day at the moment it's no surprise italy's political stalemate is nearing three months old and it's driving financial markets mad now they cheered on the president's refusal to appoint a euro skeptic as finance minister you think that naming him economist qatar aelita lead the country to a new elections would prove sentiment further that the markets approving anything but predictable. italian drama might be good in the movies but the market is not a fan of it after initial gains in the beginning of the day political uncertainty in italy caused the leading italian share index to lose over two percent by the end
8:10 pm
of it. yeah whatever the markets don't know who will end up governing italy more likely they will be a temporary technical government but we don't know for how long we've had many of them of varying lengths but the markets need just one thing certainty. new elections won't be called before the fall and whoever wins has a heap of challenges ahead italy is two point three trillion euros in debt that's the equivalent of one hundred thirty two percent of its g.d.p. . should the european central bank and its low interest rate policy italy would face higher interest payments that could lead to financial collapse unemployment is at around ten point two percent but in areas like calabria sicily and sardinia youth unemployment is over fifty percent in spite of the alarming situation in italy european leaders are trying to remain upbeat at the global solutions summit
8:11 pm
on monday german chancellor angela merkel said that the eurozone has a lot of experience when it comes to economic crisis. and when there were elections in greece and alexis if you press was made premier there were many questions on the table and at the end of the day we worked together we spoke with each other over many many nights but together we achieved something and i have to take on that task since italy is an important member of the e.u. and the. new. labor market reforms are only slowly being implemented and several previous a talian administrations have been unable to find a solution for italy's gargantuan state debt. well as i said i know now and i know every time i watch the next. story well i'm just you know what does it matter how many times i watch the same here i mean it's heartwarming and terrifying at the same time what we're talking about is we're going to have to paris now because there have been these heroic efforts of an undocumented immigrant from mali that
8:12 pm
have earned him a fast track to french citizenship because without missing a beat twenty two year old man would do to some of climbed up an apartment block literally scaling the building and plucked a toddler who was dangling from a balcony to safety well now the river of this real life spider-man has been honored by none other than the french president himself. with no thought for his own safety because some of begins to scale the facade of this apartment building in paris above him a child tangles from a ledge and the neighbor looks on helplessly unable to reach the little boy using his hands feet and sheer determination to get some of who's in cell from balcony to balcony. within a minute the migrant from mali has reached and saved the four year old boy who was crying and had to inject food. french media claim the boy's father is being
8:13 pm
detained for parental neglect no wonder kasam has been compared to the fictional here or spite of and and now he's been personally thanked and on it by french president i'm on your michael. so i came out and i saw a child in the full face floor i didn't think about myself a tool. i ran across the road to save him. although i was said to be living illegally in france he's to be given french citizenship and he's been awarded for his courage. on the i'm very happy as is the first time i've ever got anything like this before so thank you he will go along with you. back outside the apartment a neighbour's can't believe dishonest bravery. because now you have because it was impressive it's not something that you see every day and that's why people were impressed he said when he came from far away to rescue someone who comes from here
8:14 pm
. for us in the neighborhood it's something that makes us very happy. and to make the most of his climbing and rescuing skills to some is also landed himself a job to working with the fire brigade. now for parents it's the stuff of nightmares for more on the care of the day to day of news recently we said joins me now from the french capital paris his actions there could be compared to those of a guardian angel he was right there at the right moment but is it true that not everybody welcomed the honor bestowed obeidi a president on memory ducasse sama. well obviously he's being criticized because kong one hand he says we need to on of this person and give him french nationality but on the other hand at the same time the government is pushing through a very very tough immigration no law that will shorten delays for immigrants to
8:15 pm
apply for asylum and also increase the time that can be put into custody before being pushed out of the country so he's been criticized for that because it looks like he's trying to steal the limelight from this hero whereas in general he will not be around the same honor obviously to all the other immigrants who are hoping to have a future in france right that's actually a very good point that you're making there because i mean this is a great story where the great outcome and we don't want to take away if anything from the horrific acts actions said that took place but it begs the question is it do immigrants now have to perform heroic acts to secure a residency permit or citizenship in france absolutely you could very you're very right to ask that question and many people here are wondering that especially as this president is actually tightening the grip on migrants a lot more than his predecessor on the socialist president and for example the
8:16 pm
police apparently you know we are hearing reports from colorado where migrants are waiting to get through to the u.k. so that can't even actually during the night sleep sleep and as a whole night's sleep because police is to are taking away at that tends and that sleeping back so it seems like at this attitude is to say the least a little bit hypocritical. do we know how the child is doing very briefly. apparently used to being very well used now with a foster family and a government all round the prosecutor's looking into his father's situation if that was actually a one off situation or if the child should rather stay with his foster family because the parents or the father from whom we have heard so far kondraty care for him our right to thankfully he's our right to use the so he's reporting from the french capital paris thank you. and i bring up to speed now with some of the other
8:17 pm
stories making news around the world french aviation and business tycoon sarah should the soul has died at the age of ninety three the soul was france's third wealthiest person he was best known for helping develop the country's cutting edge fighter jets he also own france's biggest selling right when you speak for. u.s. authorities have declared a state of emergency in parts of maryland after communities were hit by severe flash floods in ellicott city the water carried away cars and engulfed homes and businesses one man is still missing it's the second major flood to hit the area in two years malaysian officials have seized over a tonne of crystal meth the largest seizure of the drug in the country's history the hall was disguised as tea and shipped in a container for me and mark it's been valued at eighteen million dollars six people have been arrested. all right in the helena is back a with a look at
8:18 pm
a new draft legislation to save the planet thank you later we certainly hope so now the european union is planning to ban a whole range of products made from plastic we're talking about cutlery strudels q-tips now the e.u. generates a staggering twenty six million tons of plastic waste every year in the e.u. commission says it is time that changed proposal so need the approval of the european parliament and the other individual member states. the new rules would prohibit plastic straws cutlery and plates among other items all are difficult to recycle and frequently appears litter it would also encourage countries to reduce the use of plastic food and drink containers and producers of fishing gear would have to contribute to waist costs many non-plastic alternatives are already on the market commissioners emphasized although they said nothing to differences in price the proposals were instead framed as a moral imperative that outweighed a limited business impact there will be extra cost. but
8:19 pm
that the extra cost is much lower than the benefits for society plastic bottles would not be banned under the new rules but the minimum recycling rate for member countries would be raised to ninety percent of all bottles produced by two thousand and twenty five commissioner said that would address a common complaint by the bottle industry that there isn't enough recycled material to meet demand for new bottles the long term goal is that new plastic material will be made from old until viable alternatives come into the market the whole idea behind our approach is that we help industry develop new products and as soon as a rom viable affordable alternatives then of course we will push for them to take the place of those polluters that a single use to us ticks and the new directive now waits approval from member states. and we can now bring in our correspondent dad matters here is in brussels egg ale how exactly will this work so not all plastic big band. things
8:20 pm
actually when i went shopping in brussels today and here are two of those items on the list most commonly found in maritime trash if this legislation is agreed to by member states and by e.u. lawmakers those two items will simply be banned and they will go out of the window now these two not only wants to ban things but they also want to encourage something they want to boost the production of items like this one which i found in the fam shop is a reuse a ball bottle so all the things that can be replaced that can be replaced by reusable things are not on that list obviously and also all plastic items that simply have no replacement like this dark will of course continue to be produced right there now and what has sparked all of this briefly key is that the e.u. exports most of its of its plastic in fact half of the plastic trash only
8:21 pm
a third is recycled half of it is exported abroad most of it to china but china now decided from this year on what's to stop the import of plastic trash now a lot of member states are looking for new places to dump their trash in the u.k. for instance is looking at southeast asia but for the european union or rather in the eyes of the european union of course only a sustainable solution can be put on the table right garrick matters for us in brussels plastic fantastic thank you. well perhaps that you can look to kenya for text plastic bag pollution there is a thing of the past following a ban with hefty repercussions and it had a dramatic effect on the country's streets which is well strewn with plastic waste . james who key beyond his out hunting for garbage the environmental activist takes pictures of classic back pollution in his hometown of new kourou in western kenya.
8:22 pm
brings. some even sort of would be taken to the downside this isn't a cure used to look like with t.v.'s all pictures show plastic bags carpeting the countryside in city streets the band has had quite an impact so while the body was the best thing. change is also evident on one of nairobi's largest rubbish tips and one good has worked here for fifteen years she savages items and sounds them for recycling. that fast moving i used to collect seven sackfuls of rubbish a day now i only managed to. believe will. change just strategy there's still enough other trash there now she collects food
8:23 pm
waste to sell to pig farmers the ban a strict anyone making selling or even using plastic packs faces up to four years in prison or fines of some thirty tree thousand euros anyone using them on this market hugely faces a moderate penalty off four hundred euros roughly a month's wage many market traders agree with the panel to use any of. the fines definitely help if they only gave a warning people would just ignore it. to find scare them so they look for alternatives to. james will keep me out also shops at the market here and says there aren't enough alternatives to plastic bags . available the government allows these nets there are some made of plastic but this market try to suss people arenas demolished and. james wood t.v.'s proud that
8:24 pm
kenya is a global leader in the battle against plastic waste he too wants to keep battling and has already signed this next time and last big bottles that cannot even be recycled via called a single use plastic because they're still accumulating dramatically out in the countryside i was elated now on that question of will they or won't they are certainly keeping us guessing that's sure because we had now to that on again off again summit between north korea and the united states emerged that u.s. officials crossed to the north side of the demilitarized zone for talks on sunday while their rival has raised expectations that the meeting between kim jong un and donald trump will go at despite trans having cancelled it last week preparations for that meeting in singapore are underway but not everything is what it seems. could it be supreme leader kim jong un strolling along the singapore waterfront
8:25 pm
a good two weeks before the long awaited us north korean summit i missed drove home or here in singapore i'm just waiting for you to turn up for them even with the australian accent many singaporeans were fooled by kim impersonator howard x. he predicted the meeting will be a success. and i think that the two leaders will sit down together and they're going to have a great time because really they have the same personality and really then they're the same person sorry i think would be best friends right after this meeting. meanwhile the real kim was in the demilitarized zone at a surprise meeting with the south and counterparts they say the meeting with trumpets back on but is it let's start from the beginning and an exchange of bombs . they will be met with fire and fury little rocket man little rocket man rocket man is a sick puppy olympic diplomacy follows in february and pyongyang extends an invitation to meet donald trump i'll be meeting with kim jong un in the coming
8:26 pm
weeks at the end of april the leaders of north and south korea meet for the first time kim jong un process into the south. and crosses into the north they agree to work toward formally ending the korean war. in may she extends an olive branch and releases three american prisoners i think he did this because i really think he wants to do something. to weeks later kim jong un appears to make good on a promise detonating parts of his only known nuclear testing site then washington throws a curveball citing his still ety in the recent north korean comments decided to terminate the plant summit in singapore in june twelfth then just one day later another turn around the. meeting is back on the table trumps explanation everybody . you know. back at the surprise meeting over the weekend the south korean
8:27 pm
president says the north is committed to complete denuclearization but acknowledges that kim and trump might have differing expectations of what that means. meanwhile trump is back to sending confidence signals so we're looking at june twelfth in singapore that hasn't changed. and we're along pretty well so we'll see what happens what happens next is anyone's guess i can sing the pool no one knows if the meeting will take place this could be the only incarnation of kim jong un ever to search for him. are you watching t.v. news we still have a long way to tell you about including today works five years since antigovernment protests are ruptured in istanbul's case the park will meet a group of turkish artists to find out how the failed movement has impacted their lives and work. and well look at the death threats and at liverpool

8:32 pm
the ministry so far his company had managed to keep out of the emissions cheating scandal but last week authorities said they found illegal defeat devices and diesel powered let's say just veto events they already ordered the recall of around five thousand more could follow dima has so far denied any wrongdoing and not much to add after today's meeting. with a good software see each other again in fourteen days. by then and i would have to clarify the issue with the ministry and also by then it should become clear if the emissions cheating scandal will hit yet another german comic of. all the dispute between the e.u. in the united states over illegal subsidies for european aircraft maker ad bus continues the e.u. says it has complied with all regulator your crime and the united states while it sees things differently claiming that the u.s.
8:33 pm
rival boeing remains at a disadvantage the dispute has been running for fourteen years and in may the world trade organization confirms that the e.u. had subsidized us illegally the global trade regulator rules says that the u.s. is allowed to impose sanctions to make up for the losses well north stream too is creating a political tsunami potence prime minister has called russia's pipeline plan a new hybrid weapon it connects germany by the baltic sea skirting eastern europe including ukraine now balance says it wants to make sure kiev does not lose out on gas transit revenues. this is where the pipeline will come out of the water assuming everything goes according to plan this is lube mean germany's baltic coast now. the status of the project is on track as planned. we have fulfilled all the required conditions. and expect approval to start laying
8:34 pm
pipeline in twenty eighteen. the new pipeline is slated to start at russia's baltic sea coast from their nord stream to will head past the baltic states and poland on its way to germany combined with the older pipeline russia will be able to transport double the amount of gas to western europe as currently possible but ukraine fears the new pipeline will allow russia to limit or even cut off the gas which currently flows through the country that would cost ukraine billions in vital gas transit fees even if russia's president has brushed off the likelihood. we have always treated the nord stream to pipeline project as exclusively economic we have always remove this beyond the scope of any political processes we don't intend to stop the transport of russian gas through ukraine after the launch of nord stream two. says it's not just ukraine that considers putin's promise to bake germany and the e.u.
8:35 pm
are also getting involved they may seek a contractual guarantee that ukraine won't be cut off from russian gas transports in the future. well as back i was elated now and all eyes are on an upcoming election that's right to helena because a turkey goes to the polls in about four weeks time after president richard type aired a one called snap presidential and parliamentary elections a year and a half ahead of schedule at one is the clear favorite to win the presidential race but he's facing opposition from an alliance of parties that includes the republican people's party commonly known as c h p did i mean you spoke to her me in shape the c. a piece presidential candidate and one of turkey's a fierce asst opposition voices shmuck my focus is on three things first making peace second a konami development and third a fair distribution of resources that go on your numbers then to accomplish these
8:36 pm
things i offer three principles first directional and which direction should we turn to the european union second what will be the means the marker say and individual freedoms and third what will be the administrative structure called the administration won't be based on a one man regime in his upper right chicks but on a strong leader with a capable team in charge of the called it will be well earlier we spoke with julie a high on in istanbul and i asked her to tell us more about what harm in she is the candidacy and his party the stage see h.p. . the c.h.p. is the biggest opposition party here in turkey they describe themselves as a modern social democratic party but they clearly follow a nationalist approach as well and they draw their support from secular voters from people living in western turkey mostly so cities like is mia or antalya all the
8:37 pm
c.h.p. strongholds and yes i'm injured was recently announced as that presidential candidate had a man who has been active in turkish politics for years he clearly says and he said in our interview as well that he wants to repass strained relations with the european union he wants to turn turkey back or bring turkey back on the reform track he also criticizes mr add on for his mega projects and status symbols he says for example as president he wouldn't use the huge presidential palace in ankara but rather turn that building into a university for people to use so what i'm in just call promises in this election campaign our democracy justice and economic reforms that really benefit the people . uli hunger porting there from istanbul. now five years ago this month a small group of environmentalists in turkey occupied istanbul's gazey park
8:38 pm
opposing plans by to bulldoze the trees and replace the park with a shopping center while what started as a very tiny demonstration soon turned into a mass protest against the rule of turkish prime minister tayyip erdogan and here is footage of those protests at that time when his response was as you can see here water cannons and riot police airlines turkey hailed as damaged democratic liberal and open and a model for the muslim world took a sharp turn towards authoritarianism well for turkish artists the five years since the guese of parker protests have been marked by a government crackdown on expression and freedom of speech now the government of president everyone has imprisoned thousands of journalists and many turkish artists have fled the country joining me now in the studio to talk about turkish culture before and after gacy is that culture editor scott roxburgh good to see you as god
8:39 pm
said wonderful to have you here with us first of us and give us the back story a to all of this what was cultural life like in turkey have before the guese protests broke out yeah well you have to remember i don't i've already been in power for ten years but he hadn't yet begun a real crackdown on human rights or freedom of speech and what he had done in those ten years his policies is really couldn't economic in turkey so you the economy was flourishing and the middle class really grew and along with that you saw a lot of sort of the artistic blossoming of particular in the big cities particularly istanbul alongside a valued political movement the gay movement the feminist movement the veyron mentals movement they said they became much more powerful they had before despite anyone's official policies which were more conservative religiously fundamentalist and so forth so you had. these movements already gathering and gathering force within istanbul and the guese they sort of all came together and all these groups of first time united in opposition to their to their leaders of the prime minister
8:40 pm
it was a really good start of a new type of protest culture in turkey that the country never seen before but then of course it was it was brutally crushed and destroyed what's happened since is quite interesting i mean as you said a lot of artist have left the country we spoke to a number of turkish others some who remained in istanbul some who've come here and live in exile here here in berlin and we asked them what they're doing in their art in their lives to try to keep the spirit alive take a look. for. anyone who was there will never forget it i guess. it will never be forgotten. i can still feel it i can see a list if you still feel the force. feel of it feel the union feel that light in people's eyes. tax them squarely gazey park where the uprising took place five
8:41 pm
years ago is now mostly concreted over protests are no longer permitted. ottis like hideout was a have transformed the events from back then into a giant mural a memorial to resistance and a memorial to the victims of police violence he's not selling his pitches he's determined to remain independent. or some artist bowed to the government's cause on the fears are increasing that more and more artists will engage in self-censorship. jenna is a dancer who now lives in berlin she didn't want to leave her country but after the guese protests there was no longer a place for her kind of performance she was also almost a victim of a bomb attack in istanbul she has process this trauma in a solid pace. it
8:42 pm
. was. just history. musician and filmmaker builder han is has been at the scene for longer he still went to the protests in his home country and filmed them the videos make up the background of his modern fairy tale in a parable full of hope many red riding holds join forces to defeat. the big bad wolf took each president. to one. spirit gazey even these images and now part of the past few could have hope for many artists both in turkey and to brood remains. very thriving our community there five years on the turkey seems to be at a turning point
8:43 pm
a once again we've seen a wave of protests again break out against president terror yeah yeah it's interesting just couple of weeks ago another way probably the largest group protests since the park although most of it's happening online and it started a couple weeks ago when it on gave a speech to the turkish parliament and he made the statement that if the turkish people had enough they say enough then then hill he'll step down and immediately social media exploded. the hashtag. which is turkish for enough broke out says and inspired no protests like this one in london and while people are drawing a direct connection between these protests now the tamam protests and the park protests i mean you're seeing online a lot of tweets about it this is a picture that someone tweeted a picture of the police crackdown in gazey park five years ago with the statement we have not forgotten this cartoon where the person is saying that aired on has basically turned the free press into a prison in turkey because of course since the crackdown he's thrown thousands of
8:44 pm
journalists in jail this week. labeling a terrorist using the sort of same language that everyone's been using to describe the protesters themselves now looking back at what has five years on now so we have some perspective what what do they gave the protests mean yeah it's difficult to say i mean i think you can see there's been a lot of transformation in turkey i mean free speech has been cracked down on anyone who's who thinks differently than the government has it has a really tough. particularly artists we spoke to a writer. who she still lives in turkey she was in the at the protests she's written a book about the protests and the crackdown and she says her city is completely transformed visually because a lot more sort of fundamentalist tourists from the arab world are been allowed in and immigrants have been allowed in but also all there is the seas which have been torn down i mean her argument is anything that doesn't fit everyone's picture of
8:45 pm
what turkey should be is being raced what we listen. to want the government claims to be a conservative islamic a nationalist you know you. know you know but they want to wipe out everything belonging to our past and recent history i. or you know yes i'm not that optimistic view but on the other hand i mean it was a real focal point for the cultural community in turkey and it did bind them together i mean i compared a bit to what's happened with the culture commune did the u.s. post that they've sort of found that as a point of focus a point of anger perhaps and be unified in their in their in the protests in a lot of found inspiration in the park for for there are i guess we'll really see what the impact will be in a few weeks time i mean you mentioned the elections next month in turkey. at the moment it looks like everyone will probably win another term as president if that happens it could be that consolidate his power and that he could make this hope of

8:49 pm
desk want to start off with you carl what you know about these threats that have been made to read terry's to me people take this so seriously you know for a lot of people football is more than just a game it's really you know some people saying it's life or death and i think that's how some folks are treating this now in terms of his mistakes and they're issuing some online death threats especially on social media and here's just one example that we can show you one person on twitter writing carious just die there don't return to merseyside where we're liverpool is located that's really one of the nicer ones that we can show you there are others we definitely want some threatening even his family as well if wikipedia was also edited this is his page several times one was altered to say in his bio that he's a horrible goalkeeper and as you can see here that he even died on the day of the match may twenty fifth others went with a bit of old fashioned british dark humor here one person writing when i die let carious lower my coffin so he can let me down one last time at least that one was
8:50 pm
a bit clever it wasn't really threatening but you know those threats are totally out of line and as we heard the police are taking them seriously these are actually being investigated now by authorities as they should chris your in-house soccer expert how bad were these are errors in doing warrant this type of really harsh reaction from fans you know for a few reasons. he's german germany's known for producing x. the goalkeeper's that's a big strike against him and then the two goals that he conceded the first one i think it was a case of putting the carriage before the horse because he was looking as if he was trying to get the play started to roll the ball out to a defender to move forward karim bins of our. right there stuck his foot out conceded that goal a lack of focus clearly or crème been was scouting exactly what curious was doing and they took advantage and obviously you know put his team ahead and the second goal was a garrett bill as a bicycle kick there was nothing curious could have done to prevent that one but
8:51 pm
you know the second blunder was bill's second goal and somehow the ball just kind of just floated through his fingers i was watching because i interviewed loris curious a few years ago when he was in my good goalkeeper a hard worker very reserved quite guy very nice young man but x. thought his girls might have been made of teflon or something because there was no explanation of how the ball simply did not stay between his head very said but mitchell mistakes you have to chalk it up to that mental mistake so much so that it was well of course from the fans in the stadium carlo carious it responded to the backlash yeah he did he's really handling this pretty well to be honest lots of grace lots of humility here he even released a public apology on social media and this is what he wrote addressing that not only is fans but teammates he wrote i haven't really slept until now and i think he sent this around midnight the scenes are still running through my head again and again i'm infinitely sorry to my teammates for you fans and for all the staff i know that
8:52 pm
i messed that up with the two mistakes and let you all down and it's good to see as well that there's also been an outpouring of support from the global football community for carious as well and this is fellow dermond footballer drone both saying telling carries hey stay strong keep your head up we all make mistakes and from the fans high profile liverpool supporter here saying you know it takes a lot to not only apologize to the fans after last night but also rightfully take on all responsibility for the loss if you're sending death threats to carious and don't call yourself a liverpool fan secondly i hope he gets the help he needs to bounce back i think the point there is true you know if you call yourself a. and of a team then you're not sending death threats to one of the numbers just don't want to think the whole purpose of fandom basically where does this leave care. career going forward in a jersey other than a liverpool jersey because you're following the match you know fans are calling for
8:53 pm
his quick exit you know rumor has it you're going club is scouting you know a goalkeeper by the name of allison maybe you know that's replacement but kerio so i think needs to rebuild you know regroup mentally specially mentally you know where he is he's on holiday trying to clear his mind right now you know which is a good idea but i think he should return to germany a different league a different opportunity just to show that he is a skill skillful intelligent goalkeeper you know he was signed for a reason i think he will definitely have to somewhat resurrect his this perception that's looming over his head right now either in germany maybe china number of things he can do he can save his image you know go by as you think he has what it what it takes to overcome this you know it's up to him it's hard because i'm not inside his head but he is twenty four years old you can look at goalkeepers are active into their forty's he has about ten years i believe that he can you know bring things back together and you know play at

a top level once again but time will tell i'm thinking maybe a two year hiatus from the limelight will do him some good ok too this is a long time of course in a career of a professional footballer ok chris harrington car last month gentlemen thank you so very much. and from football to basketball le bron james regarded by many as the best basketball player in the world has achieved the unthinkable in the n.b.a. he's now it's the league's finals for the eighth straight season while no other player in the modern game has even come close to that record. le bron james will not let anything keep him from a chance at another n.b.a. championship the thirty three year old led the cleveland cavaliers twenty seven to seventy nine victory of the boston celtics in game seven of these ten conference finals sunday night. that makes all of us it's his eighth straight championship his fourth straight run with cleveland james played all forty eight minutes of the game against boston he scored thirty five points picked up fifteen
