12:00 pm
this is news coming to you live from political paralysis in spock's talk of fresh elections the man doesn't need to become. prime minister to secure support for it since choice of cabinet ministers deepening the political crisis in europe zones largest economy. and feuding more italian outrage in a deal news exclusive. not to vote for populists in the next election a fear of backlash follows. plus another prominent critic of russia's president
12:01 pm
putin dies in mysterious circumstances the journalists have fled to ukraine fearing for his life after criticizing russian policy in syria we get the latest live from kiev. also on the show hosting for a solution in bangalore india is high flying tech. it's chronic shortage of water but some say the answer lies in rail digging techniques from india as industrial past. we begin prime news today. that early house held an informal meeting with the country's president called the rarely seen leaving
12:02 pm
a hotel in rome has been trying to put together a caretaker government to lead italy to early elections he's expected to meet president said that ella full of talks shortly. keeping track of all those developments is the deal because barbara visit she joins me from rome bob a frantic efforts underway to put together an interim government what's the latest on that. yeah there's the shuttle diplomacy going on obviously between the leaders of parliament the leaders of the people who group there is wisconsin really and to the hill which is the palace off the italian president to raila and there is some back and forth but no conclusion yet because this still trying to cobble together a caretaker government that's what cuts already tries and that has at least some support by parliament because the two big parties the winners the populist parties the winners of the last election said we are not going to support you now he's
12:03 pm
still trying to cobble a deal together it's very a tell you in all this however the leader of the leader of the right wing extremist party has said this is not a market place so he doesn't want to hegel what he wants is new elections maybe a bit later not in the summer but in the fall and we will have reports coming in that the two popular spot is that you mentioned the five star movement and the me are you nearing the efforts to form a coalition government can you tell us about that. yeah i mean the five star movement has had second thoughts because if they look at the polls they see that the lego would be the biggest winner of new elections at least given this situation right now and they of course think. we might lose big so let's try again but already the league guys refuses that and has said no we're not going back to the negotiating table we've had that we want a new election so it seems that that marriage that was not made in heaven is not
12:04 pm
going to last at all and the league is really pushing for election so now it's a question of when this is going to happen in all likelihood much a relic doesn't want this in july the president things italians need a cooling off period even if it's over the hot summer months and that he wants to call them back to the polls in maybe late september or october and barbara meanwhile your group is paying very close attention to all of this political turmoil and the statement made by the the budget commissioner going to go has caused quite a stir and he spoke with these exclusively and advised italians that it would be dangerous to vote for populist let's first take a listen to what he said. my concern and my expectation is that the coming weeks will show. that the developments in italy's markets. bones and its economy could become so far reaching that this might be
12:05 pm
a signal to voters not to elect populists on the right and the left. over to endure holding for a market shock that would persuade italians not to vote for the populace after all that's a big calculation from. now developments on bond markets the market value of banks and italy's economy in general have doc and noticeably and negatively. i get when they get. that has to do with the possible formation of a government i can only hope that this will play a role in the election campaign and send a signal not a time to populists on the left and right and the responsibility of government. but those comments did not go down well after all this fine apologizing and kalar fine what he meant to give the interview to ask what have people will move thing to you
12:06 pm
about his remarks. you know we moved in the mean time away from the president's palace where the waiting just drags on endlessly to a market in the center of rome and if you talk to people here of course they do not want any interference most people say this is undemocratic if we vote for somebody we then expect them to form a government now we know what happened to the latest attempt to do that but they really they're really quite angry about the situation and also on the other hand people are getting a bit nervous and they say we want a government more or less any government as soon as possible because they don't feel that this fluid this chaotic situation is doing them any good because all they tell you newspapers this morning carried headlines saying there is an earthquake in the financial markets because of italian bonds and so it's slowly filtering down into the consciousness even of people sort of in the streets here in rome they saying this might be a dangerous situation we don't like it we want to be led out of it and lumber if
12:07 pm
they are fresh elections with seemed to be liking what was lacking to benefit most from them. yeah if you look at the polls now of course it would be the league which has sort of it which should added seven points to what they had in the last elections so they would be the biggest winners bought if the president can prevent elections to be held very soon and today would be pretty much according to rule the rules the last day where he could do that and then they will be in the fall and people can sing twice a lot of things can happen for months are a long time in and tell you in politics so stuff can happen till then we can see new coalitions dystonia might arise again out of the ashes anything is possible so and that's really what the president wants people to have time to think again right barbara visit seems like
12:08 pm
a good idea thank you very much for that update from rome and despite all this police sirens going on behind that we now bring you up to date for some other news stories making news around the world. officials in the security forces a militant attack on the of god interior ministry spokesman said seven attackers were killed a series of deadly attacks in kabul this year have killed and wounded hundreds of people. really military has released video that it says shows strikes against dozens of militants sites in the gaza strip overnight it said the strikes were in retaliation to attacks in southern israel launched by palestinian militants . in authorities say a man who killed three people in the city on tuesday repeatedly shouted. during the attack they are treating the case as terrorism the assailant was killed in
12:09 pm
a shootout with police he reportedly killed another man on monday after being released from prison. it has the hallmarks of a targeted killing meant to send a message a prominent russian journalist an outspoken critic of president vladimir putin or shot dead on tuesday that you create in capital kiev a chink o. had fled into exile foreign threats moscow has rejected you're creating allegations that it was behind the killing. but janko was one of the best known war correspondents in russia he was also one of kremlin's fiercest critics the forty one year old soldier turned journalist condemned russia's annexation of crimea questioned its military involvement in syria and called russia an aggressor his colleagues say he was killed because of his work. he was one of the few who wrote
12:10 pm
the actual truth about what the russian federation is doing and if it wasn't dangerous for them if he didn't care about it they would have killed him. hours before bob genco was shot he shared what would become his final post on twitter four years ago general cool cheat ski refused to let me on board this helicopter two hours of to this picture was taken he continued the helicopter was shot down fourteen people died i was lucky i consider that day my second birthday. outside his kiev apartment police and journalists are now looking for answers ukrainian police suspect the crime was linked to his quote professional activities at the united nations ukraine's foreign minister suggested russia was to blame of course it's a bar about finding out who was behind it. or said this churlish to say
12:11 pm
we see simply the russian presence there. but moscow is pushing back foreign minister sergei lavrov has denied russian links to the death dismissing the allegations as an to russian propaganda. joining me now is nick colony he is in the ukrainian capital kiev nick as we heard russia has categorically denied it's involved in this murder but we also have the ukraine korean foreign minister there claiming bob jenkins case fits into what he called a russian pattern what do you mean by that. that of the average or well he points to a series of unexplained and suspicious deaths or attempted killings of. opponents of the russian government abroad most notably of see in recent months the script pollack case in the united kingdom and says that this all amounts to a pattern of intimidation and attack on people who have fallen out with those in
12:12 pm
power in moscow and that russia is not shy of using any methods to destabilize to. neutralize the people it sees its opponents and also to destabilize ukraine and what impact then nick will this law to have one other russian dissidents living in ukraine. well many of them are extremely concerned you histories of people moving house and regular basis constant change your phone numbers all in the hope that this will be enough to keep potential adversaries off their trail whether that's enough we'll have to see this isn't the first time that a russian journalist has been killed in kiev the last. big case was in twenty sixteen publisher and yet very noticeable figure someone who also having worked very prominently in russia was also a big. big figure in the ukrainian genocide scene he was killed in a car bombing in broad daylight in downtown kiev no results there on that
12:13 pm
investigation so this time around i think the ukraine best case is a very keen show they're doing their best to actually put some evidence behind those allegations made by for mr clinton at the u.n. of course it will be a while before we know the outcome of the investigation but will i will this case cause a father chill in already cold relations between russia and ukraine. i think i'm going to there's little room for things get any worse than they already are they're pretty much at rock bottom i think what's different this time is that this dispute is not just a bilateral speech being kiev and moscow being done directly it's being done in the full view of the world's press and the world and. world politics on the floor of the united nations in new york the russian saying that this example of ukraine being a failed state it's basically unable to guarantee security in its own country that ukraine is a dangerous place for journalists the ukrainian side point the thing to finger straight back at moscow saying this is the long arm of moscow and its secret
12:14 pm
services so i think this is definitely something that is not going to go away because both ukraine and russia have already staked so much in this in the public realm in the past twenty four hours. colony in kiev thank you very much for the. you're watching the news coming up ahead india's high flying i.t. hub faces chronic water shortage could the solution lie in traditional well digging techniques. and we take a look at how germany's group rivals mexico are gearing up for the world cup with one man looking to set a special record. but first to monica and the latest on a trade dispute between china and the u.s. yes there has been a slight twist if you want to get used to it now with don has recently taken during trade negotiations with the asian powerhouse the move would impose a twenty five percent tariff on fifty billion dollars worth of chinese goods within
12:15 pm
the next month chinese trade officials said they were not surprised by the reversal which followed criticism in the united states that china was getting the better deal the u.s. originally announced the terrorists as retaliation for china's infringement of american intellectual property. and all that as financial markets are still reeling from the political turmoil in italy now there's renewed straight uncertainty let's talk about all that with our man of the frankfurt stock exchange. to come out what does this reversal of china mean for that deadline that we have here in the europe with the e.u. u.s. trade talks. well i want to cut for financial people it is incredibly difficult to price this risk you know today at a meeting of the o.e.c.d. in paris very important policymakers from both the united states and europe wilbur ross since the story of our minister of economic speech by the french
12:16 pm
minister with all of now they all will get together and they all will also be talking about those steel and albanian tariffs where the americans you know granted the europeans a reprieve until the end of this week but given the permanent changing of mind by the trump administration you know this way one day the way the other day it's incredibly difficult to have those negotiations and of course even more difficult to predict what the outcome will be and this causes a lot of the jitters on the markets right now so maybe it's even less uncertain to focus your minds on italy. well yes it's really is another factor very difficult to evaluate and another factor call that causing jitters today there is a bit of a recovery on the stock markets here in frankfurt especially also in the land where the losses yesterday were quite significant the euro dollar exchange rate is also
12:17 pm
up on the bond markets well the spread between the italian and the german government bonds is narrowing a little bit you know the spread is also an indicator for the jitters on the bond markets but i would say that bond traders remain on high alert also because we have an auction coming up of new italian government bonds of course everyone is. considering this major topic something that's difficult to predict the outcome is on everyone's minds ok and you will keep an eye on that one for sure for us on the glistening front for thank you so much. well greece's third and final bailout comes to an end in organists business part of the multi-billion euro package creditors are demanding new austerity measures including wage cuts and higher taxes weak workers though they've had enough unions have called for a twenty four hour strike train plane and bury services are expected to have
12:18 pm
widespread cancellations today since the debt crisis started in two thousand and ten wages in greece have been slashed by more than a quarter the greek economy is growing again but many greeks feel they are the ones paying the price for the recovery. perfectly as kook lee's starts his shift in a restaurant on the island of lesbos. he's working as a barista even though he's a trained educator. so that is because which is real estate isn't taking any more applications for teaching jobs at one of the oh that's why i have to work here like i still need to make a living i'm not embarrassed to do this. but i prefer to work in my chosen profession just. low wage jobs in restaurants or call centers are about the only jobs available in greece and even though unemployment has technically fallen by eight percent business journalist notorious notice however is skeptical about these jobless figures. still make up only first of all wages are much lower than before
12:19 pm
the crisis and it's these secondly these are alternate forms of employment either part time or on call and thus paid as such to fill these jobs are recorded statistically as proper work almost all of those but the government considers this a success story and athens points to the fact that the economy is growing. because snuffly o.t.s. also believes things are finally improving his glazier business struggled through the economic crisis the last few years were so bad his orders dropped by half. he was only able to keep his twenty three skilled employees by reducing their hours but he needs more investment capital at peace to grow his business. he may not be. the problem is that we can't directly profits into investment for the company because we have to pay operating costs taxes and social security
12:20 pm
contributions. greece has raised tax rates to generate more money for its coffers and that's put many out of business and choked investment. he coast knocked the o.t.s. is hoping to grow again with the help of foreign investors. he's waiting for permits from the government so he can be an example of a real success story coming out of greece. well this water shortage study problems says supply in various towns in india those cities in india begin to look at a bangalow. the indian city of benghazi into a massive. but its success story has not come without problems many are now wired this forwarding city could run out of water some are looking to induce pre-industrial past for solutions could their work we have this report.
12:21 pm
bangalore india silicon valley. a high flying i.t. hub for multinational corporations located on the city's outer edges but bangalore is also home to severe water issues. polluted lakes that froth over with toxic foam made up of chemicals and raw sewage and unchecked tech driven urban growth that has left many of the city's water grid. among those affected from a christian he's a successful professional with his own company. but his apartment complex gets no piped water it's a problem faced by many in bangalore's tech community. and says their patience with civic authorities is wearing them removed to be expectation was definitely a. connection. grown and if it continues
12:22 pm
yes definitely i can see that people are getting on the edge. many in bangalore are now reliant on private tankers. which get their supply from bore wells as deep as fifteen hundred feet the practice is depleting the local water reserves. leaving many worried the city could soon run out of the resource altogether. but conservation is vishwanath believes the situation is not so dire he's been studying bangalore's water for over thirty years and says the crisis has been blown out of proportion because of its effect on the i t community these are the people with the longest war he says and sometimes they have why is this distort the problem definition and sell it to the resources when you go it's not so equal to the issue and i look asian is the issue which would come with infrastructure some of that infrastructure could lie here in traditional open wells like this one which is
12:23 pm
around one hundred years old there are approximately ten thousand of these in bangalore today and unlike the city's new wave of bore wealth they don't go as deep into the ground. like bees are built and maintained by traditional well diggers like ramakrishna who lives in a village outside the city. ramakrishna is a fourth generation well digger and his community's local know how it's centuries old he believes it can be used to help tackle the city's modern day problems. earlier we used to get all our water from open wells people forgot about them but now they're becoming more aware and think we should use. a crack up if we keep using bore wells the city will run out of water. alongside water conservation as ramakrishna is now involved in a campaign to recharge the city's wells it would replenish shallow groundwater aquifers with rainwater the process is more environmentally friendly than jelling
12:24 pm
bore wells deep into the ground and the campaign aims to have a million functional open wells by the time it's done ramakrishnan the community he belongs to represent a more sustainable approach to water conservation and if bangalore draws upon their traditional expertise it might just dam its water crisis before the taps run dry. now we've been hearing a lot about how germany are gearing up for the world cup but what about their first group opponents mexico they had an interest the start of their preparations with a friendly draw against wales but they have a good world cup pedigree and the evergreen captain could set a remarkable record next month in russia. his first world cup was back in two thousand and two now rafael marquez is looking at making it to yet another. if mexico coach won carlos
12:25 pm
a sorry or names marquez in his final score list the thirty nine year old could become the only player to have cats in his country at five world cups. as a team on the field because of the field i think there's no debate that he is the player that can contribute the most of the team. a serious side will likely pose the biggest threat to germany in group ash they were down our goal a straw in a friendly against wales on tuesday wouldn't have had anyone quaking in their boots contract frankfurt's german cup winning the fender saito is confident his country will find form at the right time since. i have always said that those who don't believe mexico can have a great world cup. they shouldn't even try to support us at the end of the day everything is in our heads. the right thing one of our mistakes has been setting our own limits. mexicans are capable of doing great things.
12:26 pm
