12:05 pm
almost total approval within the country even opponents of president poroshenko the government coming out with gushing facebook posts and tweets saying this was an example of ukraine having found its own way having its security services strengthening picture pushing for saying yesterday that this was a sign that ukraine had passed its sovereignty test and that its state security services had to go reach a new level were able to protect journalists and what about the more general reaction then make do paper share the government's position that this was a successful and clever operation. the approval is rather extraordinary even journalists people who we unwittingly pulled into this like we all who reported on this murder seem to bear extraordinarily little grudges for them this is an example they say over the government showing it cares about journalist safety something they weren't
12:06 pm
necessary always confident of there are some voices saying that this was cruel to his family saying that this was a stunt but the kind of voices you're hearing to nationally the kind of concerns about fake news about the believability the credibility of ukrainians ukrainian government officials you have to remember here the foreign minister pov of clinton was in new york at the u.n. talking about this he now says he didn't know that this was a hoax the same goes the prime minister. validity may grossman who took to facebook to. comment on this murder saying that the murders had to be found none of this seems to really hold much sway with voters here and for now this is a pretty extorted situation in kiev but the international city will be coming in until the ukraine game is able to prove really hard and fast that this was indeed connected to russia as they say it was and b. think if any indication that russian didn't dissidents living in ukraine would be
12:07 pm
any as a result off this episode well they certainly relief that this was you know seen as an important as an important issue by the government yes a the authorities informed us that there were thirty other people on this supposed hit list so obviously there is some. understanding that that people might be safe but i don't think that there's any white a real sense that ukraine is a fundamentally different place this was a very big piece of showmanship and it really remains to be seen how far that really translates into a really qualitative change in ukraine's ability to protect its citizens. nick got only in the ukrainian capital kiev thank you. let me now bring you up to date with some of the stories making news around the world spanish m.p. they're debating whether or not to keep prime minister mariano to haul in power a new confidence vote was called after all for his conservative party was found

12:11 pm
them to be more involved in the long term they are likely looking for broader economic cooperation not only with north korea but south korea and perhaps some additional influence in northeast asia. so where you are has been pushing hard for the trump came summit to happen how likely is it that it will go ahead. well all these meetings including a meeting now between a senior north korean official and us secretary of state might pompeo in new york today do seem to signal that both north korea and the united states are quite serious about making this summit happen it does appear like june twelfth could be the target date still whether it gets pushed off could also be an option but in any case given all the effort that both sides appear to be putting into it it does look like a summit will happen one way or another josh smith fellow south korea thank you very

much. you're watching the news coming up ahead trouble in paradise betide beach made famous by the hollywood film. beach becomes a victim of its own fame. and germany's golden generation are possibly heading to their last world cup and they have become the first team since brazil in one thousand nine hundred sixty two to retain their title. but first let's have some business with monica and the latest on the trade dispute brewing between the e.u. and the u.s. and which could come to a head fairly soon president all the trump is expected to go ahead with plans terrorism steel and aluminum imports from e.u. countries according to reports out of the united states the news comes sliced minutes talks between european trade officials and u.s. secretary of commerce wilbur ross on the sidelines of the o.e.c.d.
12:13 pm
meeting in paris failed to yield a deal the europeans left wednesday's meetings pessimistic about winning a third and final exemption from the tariffs announced in march the terrorists are slated to go into effect on friday the dispute test prompted french president in one way mark or to caution against a trade war. a friday of course is tomorrow and to our correspondent lisa is standing by at all for us following the events in paris lisa those last ditch talks to clinch a deal failed now does this trigger tariffs automatically or are we waiting for some special official go. now we're still waiting for the official announcement but most people here obviously expecting the terrorists to come now they're kind of resignation to it but they're also saying you know we strong enough to get through this if it really happens and we are willing to retaliate on the other hand those are the thing that the situation will not escalate i spake with
12:14 pm
a german economics minister peter maya yesterday and here is what he told me. first of all we should not speculate second the the european and the german economy are very robust so i do not believe in the immediate effects but what we should try to avoid and this was repeated by the french president as well in his speech today is a commercial for a commercial board that would. would go on for months and for years would of course undermine trust in european and american markets. so that was the german economy minister talking to lisa loyce yesterday and lisa if a trade dispute puts both america and europe risk why would both sides allow this to happen. well monica because it's complicated it's not just
12:15 pm
about economics it's also about politics donald trump is putting on a strong man act he wants to show i'm strong i'm the i'm in charge here i'm going to protect american jobs and we are being treated unfairly by the e.u. that is imposing too many tears that are too high on our product the e.u. on the other hand is saying you know we understand all that but we cannot accept this on the chin they need to keep face as well they can't just accept all his conditions and they're telling him we're happy to negotiate on this but also on maybe a restructuring of multilateralism but not like this looks like the u.s. is winning round one but the e.u. is obviously hoping to win the following rounds ok before we get to the following round i mean those failed talks took place of course on the sidelines of the annual o.e.c.d. meeting in paris which would have been overshadowed by the trade conflict doesn't
12:16 pm
it absolutely the every seat is one of the international organizations that is supposed to foster economic growth but also global trade the topic here at this annual meeting is inclusive growth so they're well aware of the fact that something is wrong with the way multilateralism is working at the moment and they're happy to reorganize themselves to reform the structures but the fact that donald trump is now saying no i want to destroy everything he's kind of in favor of more by lateralus and that's really putting a question mark over the very resilient gesture of this organization all right lisa lewis there reporting for us from paris where trade talks between e.u. trade ministers and to the u.s. seem to have failed thank you so much. ever since the emission cheating scandal came to light concerns about diesel emissions have
12:17 pm
skyrocketed now humbug has become the first german city to ban older diesel vehicles from two highly polluted roads the city hopes the bangor helps get a handle on soaring levels of nitric oxide a clue to found in diesel at first police will simply inform drivers about the new measures but after an initial transition period there will be fines twenty five euros for cars and seventy five euros for diesel trucks. and standing by for us on one of those roads banned diesel is a no do malala gentle you've been there since this morning how's this going. well monica i can't tell you if the air is any cleaner yet but it's only been a few hours so who knows but earlier city officials talked to press and residents to give them information about this band and i can tell you that quite a few angry residents showed up there saying that this is a policy for the sake of policy that they can't imagine that this will do anything
12:18 pm
for the air quality of hamburg considering that two kilometer or two kilometers of road are affected and just to put that into perspective how has a road up work of four thousand kilometers and obviously these all cars are obviously simply taking alternative routes which are often longer and therefore the emissions are in the air for a longer other kind of thing that i've heard so far said about the diesel ban is that it's a start in something that's never been attempted before modest though it may be all right so why why is this local diesel band relevant beyond that particular part of where you're at. well it sends a signal to the rest of the world that germany these a loving germany where these old technology is much much bigger than in other countries that a driving ban can be implemented here and of course this is coming out a time where other cities are looking to implement their own driving bans like london like paris like copenhagen so they'll be looking at how it is a sort of litmus test for enforceability that said however based on
12:19 pm
a conversation that i had with a city official earlier today but the point of this ban doesn't seem to be to expand it beyond the two streets that it affects now but rather to force the federal government to try and get the auto industry to fix right trophic the older polluting diesel cars so other cities are looking to hamburg as an example of how to do a driving ban might turn out all wanting in the end ok so humbug is nudging the car industry to maybe think their strategy. thank you so much. from a sunny hum book and now to well a fairy tale beach amrita. and is that what it's called thank you very much monica know how dies unspoiled in unbelievably beautiful my a bay was made famous by the hollywood from the beach in the movie the scenic spot is a secret location not registered on any map in reality it's on the small island of

we can coordinate with the coaching team to fits our requirements especially with the training load. gamez. noya and co get to take it easy sometimes but at the world cup they'll be leading from the front end of these are a few small aches and pains but they're there all the year round i don't believe that a few physical elements will get in the way of such a big goal they'll be ignored as long as possible and come in two thousand and nine this team was crowned under twenty one european champions six of them went on to lift the world cup in twenty four team. bus yet snuffed of it in what will happen after the world cup with this golden generation i don't know if this is for this hasn't been an issue until now and i don't think it will play a role in the motivation of the individual players. you want to live has extended his contract until twenty twenty two and chase is the biggest loss to
