world com pontine locos with iceland tiny iceland made it to the group finals of the euros two years ago could they much on the high flying option team. i'm helen all free you could join me people have been flooding on to the streets of the afghan capital kabul to celebrate a day off for the taliban announced a surprise three day cease fire it was a rest sites as taliban fighters hoped i needed to take selfies with the soldiers and civilians that the fighting afghan president ashraf ghani said he would extend a parallel cease are announced by his government and choose day but did not say how long it would be in place for. well joining me now is annie le t.
8:02 pm
fi who's a journalist in kabul he's been following the story for us ali off to years of fighting against each other suddenly we're seeing afghan soldiers and taliban fighters hugging it's very rare to see what's behind the ceasefire. well you are right it is a rare scene something unprecedented something we haven't seen in our history pretty much an ever. what's behind the ceasefire that is a multiple number of factors one thing is that the one thing that everyone keeps stressing is that there's no longer a military solution to this war and i think the truth is now that the government the u.s. and the taliban are all coming to this realization we've seen the taliban try and the lawyers for privileged capitals recently for instance in the western province of assad but that you know obviously did not work out and the truth is even if they were able to take provincial capital again as they did in two thousand and fifteen and two thousand and sixteen their ability to hold onto it and to keep extending that territory in such a large way that they would be able to basically gain control of the country again
8:03 pm
is almost nearly impossible so i think in this case all sides know that all of their other options have been expended. so this is really the only that was laughed and at the same time for the follow on you know what today's suicide bombing and here in the eastern city of jalalabad shows is that they haven't made the enemy they have a common enemy now with the government and that's the die is forces right so yeah they're now the united states. and now that they're picking up steam and they're really staging very deliberate very high profile attacks puts a lot of pressure on that follow but because they're not the only group anymore and they're facing a lot of. you know competition right and to they're not the only out on the block anymore i mean let me ask you this is it naive or too soon to talk about peace talks or is that a real possibility what's next. that's exactly the question right so for instance
8:04 pm
the president announcing that he's going to extend the cease fire that was expected but not expected so sue the original expectation was some ten year the end of this week the fact that he did it so quickly caught a lot of people off guard and you know people to wonder what's behind it for instance you know he's been saying that there have been no security incidents up until you know he made his announcement just before that incident general clark so you say no there aren't security incidents and we're seeing the two sides come together and as you said take selfies and really sort of the brotherly in that way again over the holiday so there is a hope in that sense but the issue still in the taleban refuses of him to to negotiate directly with the kabul government. journalists and that he feel in kabul thank you. now german chancellor angela merkel is standing firm today is a dispute over migration with one of her top ministers threatens to bring down her
8:05 pm
coalition government and if it is a message macko reiterated her intention to seek a common european solution to illegal immigration escalating a standoff with interior minister who is a whole finale he wants strict border controls including turning back refugees who've already registered in another european countries all who have been turned down for asylum and german government could foresee if no agreement is found in force well the chancellor facing an uphill battle a brand new poll finds that fifty seven percent of germans oppose macas immigration policy he asked people on the streets of berlin what they thought. i think it's very difficult just a part of the varian friend but it also must say i'm leaning more and march who are setting up a limit we can't just keep on taking people in there see all saying that goes if a boat holds thirty people and there are fifty on board it sinks and no one
8:06 pm
benefits from that. from the i think the current crisis is that the c.s.u. is trying to implement their right wing ideology ahead of the state elections because this team are caught in this is to learn to exploit that even have mixed kids my kids are white so you can imagine if you want you know me your country that mean you don't want your kids and. they didn't also know is a foreigner so ok but now it's got a bit too far and this is not their country on skates so we're doing well here in germany there are people who are worse off to come from other countries and they have the rights you can hear. this in vote buying we're from a very a and i have to say we've always agreed with mr on most issues honestly i do not have to welcome every refugee to germany we feel a linear ated being surrounded by foreigners in the north. do three things for the problem can only be solved through european consensus we are all partially
8:07 pm
responsible for the refugee crisis so we have to solve it together we cannot see lower country off as c.e.o. for seems to want to do this. well migration was also top of the agenda when a french president emmanuelle back home at italy's new prime minister just have a conte in paris on friday the two leaders called for profound changes to the european union's asylum policies the talks came off a diplomatic spat earlier this week when paris criticized rome's refusal to let a micro rescue sure ship dock at its ports. days ago they exchanged harsh words now it's handshakes and back rubs french president emanuel and italian prime minister separate contests are finding common ground despite their differences one is a european cheerleader the other the head of a euro skeptic government but both agree that the current rules for processing asylum seekers in their country of a rival are not working because the concept of

a state of first entry must be reviewed whoever sets foot in italy sets foot in europe it. will be. the math that today the current system does not work at the moment. the solidarity system is designed with quotas did not deliver satisfactory results we must find a mechanism so each state can bear responsibility for migrants on its territory but also allow for solidarity so that the geographical situation does not result in an unsustainable political situation. the meeting was almost up ended by a spat over the plight of migrants on board the rescue ship aquarius. spokesman accused is really of cynicism and irresponsibility for turning the ship away italy demanded an apology and threatened to call off the leaders meeting the migrants remain on board the aquarius bound for spain heading through rough seas there is
8:09 pm
farah conditions at the elisa palace contest says italy is working on a proposal to overhaul europe's asylum system he wants to see migrant processing centers established in africa something appears open to an attempt to keep is really close even as european countries are drifting apart. i know some of the other stories making news around the world at least seventeen people have been killed in a stampede in a nightclub in venezuela's capital caracas off to a school graduation party turned into a ball brawl police say a tear gas device exploded causing a deadly rush for the exits several people have been arrested in connection with the day. nicaragua's bishops say they have brokered a truce between the government and civil society groups ending two months of deadly political unrest under the deal the government has agreed to an international

8:11 pm
a mistake to secure the country. now let's get more on this match now with me in the studio cress harrington from a d w i mean this was quite a big game the fit both sides where he was now yes it was bigger for proof just factored in they haven't been back on those big states since one nine hundred eighty two thirty six years many players weren't even born or proof side and there's a little bit of drama leading up to this match because their captain paolo guerrero was suspended for a band but he had to have been suspended on the behest of some demarc players wrote on behalf of approving captain to see that he can play they will they wrote an open letter to feet put it all worked out you know but coming into the match then mark they have been back in the main stage since twenty ten so there's been a dry spell you know but all that all it was an interesting thing is see peruvian fans check this out some quit their jobs once in a particular even game twenty four kilos to get a special access to
8:12 pm
a seat so everyone was geared up to sound isn't bad yeah everyone was dedicated and there was a pretty hard fought match obviously didn't mark you know prevailed at the end because of a a muffin from peru i mean any game changing moments for you yeah definitely i mean christian quaver you know we saw the penalty attempt you know actually when you see the replay you can see him take it he does what i would call the messy stutter you know it's like you try to get the goalkeeper you know in the wrong footing or to commit early and that's exactly how it plays out he did. as the starter and then as you see the goalkeeper go through wrong way put the attempt it would have worked out in american football that would have gone right through the uprights but obviously this is way too high for football right or soccer and it's tough because sometimes the pressure is too much that was his opportunity to at least did minimum earn a point for his side so you know he's got to be feeling that hopefully the peruvian fans who i've heard have been peacefully invading russia is trying to lift his spirits as we speak you know you know but a tough break
8:13 pm
a tough break you know for the young yeah tough race take a look at some of the other action to date and because saturday also so wild cop first time is iceland take on might mighty option teetering group d. the south americans and known for their polished technique can came into this clash is a clear favorite but iceland with a scrappy physical style cannot have be ruled out. argentina broke the deadlock early on sergio aguero scoring the opener and then ninety minutes by foot iceland came back just two minutes later with the first ever world cup go alfredsson bogus in this school run by in the second half put the pressure on to see iceland in some mistakes and penalty for the favorites surely this would be the lead upset leo messi see behind us how the sun and the fans they saved it like kuwait. as the minutes counted down messi tried as lucky again but it was to
8:14 pm
know avail one of the final score as iceland was quite the upset. the sound it's like it should if you quite a sim sometimes have to make. you know a paper i mean i think every pundit in the world had argentina walking away you know on top of this one but i think it was a case of iceland having a carry over of the momentum we saw in the euro twenty six you know but all fingers point messi you know in this in terms of letting his side down and not picking up the clean victory you know because messi ok you have to give credit to the goalkeeper housed off but you know you'd expect a player of messi stature and just see how to say or nice if of course he's supposed to show up and be the difference maker and you know some say he possibly hinders his team because you know sometimes his teammates can hang around this watch and see if he'll try to create or maybe pass off this time he just didn't
8:15 pm
