truth detectives starts june thirtieth on t.w. . this is the w.'s line from bernard buckle up macro talk a new reform in the shadow of the migration crisis the german and french leaders called for a unified european response but is emmanuel macro support enough to help merkel at home she's under intense pressure put in her coalition to find a solution to the refugee crisis by the end of them are also on the program record

numbers of people running for their lives the united nations refugee agency estimates that sixty nine million people around the world were forcibly displaced last year playing with violence and persecution. and on day six of the football world cup in russia japan proved to be no pushover when they opened the unpredictable group nights against colombia we'll bring you the highlights. on phil gayle welcome to the program. germany's chancellor angela merkel is insisting on a unified european response to migration she met with france's president emmanuel mccraw today to discuss euro zone reform and to find solutions to europe's migration crisis the chancellor said europe should stand up for its democratic principles and call for greater a use solidarity in managing migration into leaders are preparing for an e.u.

summit next week and also proposed setting up a euro zone budget. so let's take a listen to some of what chancellor merkel had to say after her meeting with president michel we see this as a common challenge facing us yes one which first and foremost we have to look at how we can combat the so-called says that drive people to leave their homes so this means peace. in order to complete regions such as syria ukraine within in surprise times but it also means development cooperation for the countries of africa. in favor of having a coordinated approach a european approach would be a very come on the best option but this seems to be quite difficult this is why we can look at cooperation you did it your country's business remains a european response to the challenges. of

a cabinet so for both countries to happen that makes a book just outside simon young is there barbara visuals joins us from brussels welcome both simon let's start with you chancellor merkel needs results on migration did she get any closer to one today. well maybe she. failed of course it's helpful to her to have positive words and that's what she got from emmanuelle the french german relationship of course one of the key ones at the heart of the european union if these two countries don't agree then there's little hope of a european wide solution on any issue including migration but that's what these two leaders here today said that they want talking about beefing up europe's external borders with more money and funds and more effectiveness for frontex the european border agency working more for instance with african countries to promote development to help them stay in the causes of migration and so on and talking also

about you know introducing these common asylum rules across the e.u. where all these phrases frankly we've heard them before and there wasn't really any indication today of how france and germany are going to go and persuade other countries to find a common solution and certainly not within the next couple of weeks which of course is when angela merkel facing a crisis in but in berlin needs some results a spec up on the point with the vessel in brussels did you hear anything in today's speeches from the president on the chancellor anything there that they can sell to the e.u. . well particularly in those speeches with regard to the refugee crisis because this simon said all of these good words let's protect our borders better and so on and so far as we've heard in million times before but if you look at the paris papers for this next summit there is something interesting there because obviously the e.u. now wants to push forward

a solution that has been talked about for the fifteen years in europe and always sort of sore on to the side as unmanageable it talks about the preparations for the summit they talk about creating refugee centers in also africa in countries outside of the e.u. or european union and particularly italy will jubilant the new right wing government there if they hear that proposal because it would mean that if they closed their harbors for refugee boats they can do so and can just say oh you know why don't you straight go back straight to libya or whatever you came from and to me shows so on and do you would be put in a camp there and they will look at your asylum rights and they will take care of you and so that seems to be the way the european union wants to go and that i think it could be something that there would be a great majority for very quickly. the other big topic that they discussed in the

press conference afterwards was the eurozone the budget to baba faisal anything solid that. that is still relatively vague of course it's clear that berlin had to make some concessions to krung who wanted much more wanted a real reform off the eurozone and he is just going to get some steps but we have to take what's on the table and i'm going to market did speak about the eurozone budget something that. quite a while ago a little while ago only and so now it seems that some money will be put into that some investment will be fostered for the european countries that economic economically weaker so there is some movement there but the two will have to do some convincing to do it during the summit because countries like france the netherlands are absolutely opposed to those ideas so they have they have pulled together the little bit forwards but they're not there they're not at their common goal a final brief word from you simon france and germany have

a history of being the motor drive in europe but the merkel macro partnership is still largely untested. well yeah and you know when these meetings happen there's always a good atmosphere you know some people talk about mer kron or m. and m. even as a kind of idea that these two leaders are totally in tandem i think right now medical facing pressure from within their own party in berlin could really use even more support from the french leader the french leader of his own party's got a huge program of reforms that he'd like to put through across europe it's not just about monetary union strengthening the you're also about defense corporation they were talking about today where the two leaders have got some announcements so there's a lot of things that my crew would like to do and he needs medical for that if she won't balls then his plans may also fall so many young and mr burke bob are

available in brussels talking about. many western governments tighten that migration policy so increasing numbers of migrants are being sent home to gambia in west africa is one of the world's poorest countries so many young parents try to make it to europe when they are sent back they often find themselves overwhelmed by a sense of shame and with few opportunities to improve their prospects. known endearingly as a smiling coast of africa the gambia has little in way of its economy to smile about two decades of tyrannical rule forced especially young people to europe in search of a better life but now and a new governance these migrants asylum applications have been rejected and dumb down spent three years in germany training and working as a caregiver for the elderly until he was unexpectedly deported he now lives with his mother and six other people in a small house in the capital bundles saw. from the sure this is my

folder from school in germany. they arrested me inside the classroom so i had to take it with me when out of my shop and i brought my school books all the way back with me. on. here brah. this is the worst case scenario well integrated immigrant with job prospects in germany ends up back in the gambia with nothing the twenty two year old can barely bring himself to leave the house ashamed he didn't live up to his expectations. the government everyone they want to deport me but i don't have any. problem in germany my three. i could comment not in on you walk then go my home meter between you and finish i'm going to score points really hard

for me right now because they deport me morning i left my job in jail and i'm here in one year i don't have any support for anybody so an. activist knows how bleak the situation can be they're coming home to a country that has no. opportunities for them. i mean talk country that has been done right and you know they're coming back our society that we stigmatize them that we treat them like you feel use. need to be deported just to this is a the be treated like a view and to use the stigma of a society that notifies the western world it's not the best start for the gambians young democracy but youth minister henry gomez says these little the virtually bankrupt country can do it i can assure you that anybody. who came

to my office. has been put into some way to do something we have would it look. no one of them but minister are you saying that in this country in order to get a job you have to see the minister i cannot. cite for all of them understood what i can or soon you want to happen to be at least into their problem and work with what their problem if it comes to my office but listening will do little for people like you who have nothing to show for their stay abroad and nothing to look forward to at home. meanwhile record numbers of people around the world on the move the latest report from the un's or refugee agency says war and conflict of led to the largest increase in the number of. refugees and displaced people since it started monitoring the situation in one thousand nine hundred fifty while according to the report the number of refugees around the world now sits at sixty eight and

a half million that's up by three million since twenty sixty roughly two thirds of those come from just five countries syria afghanistan south sudan minima and somalia the u.n.h.c.r. says resolving any wong of those regional conflicts would have a major impact on the global refugee crisis. charlie yaxley speaks for the u.n. h.c.r. and joins us from geneva in switzerland to welcome to d.w. so you have produced this report you've given the world the figures what do you want to happen now well this is a dire milestone that we've reached for the just for the fifth year in a row and you wreck or it has been set with the highest number of people displaced in any time since world war two and behind these figures we have to remember individual men women and children who through no fault of their own have been

forced to leave everything they know behind last year people were forced to flee their homes a ray of. every two seconds. creates to around forty four thousand four hundred people per day and the vast majority of those more than eighty five percent of being hosted in developing countries so what's needed now is for the international community to come together for that to be greater solidarity with the global south of great a share of responsibility to be taken so you talk about the international community coming together your own parent organization the united nations was founded to resolve these conflicts why is it failing. well what we're seeing is war and violence taking place and it's displacing people faster rate than solutions are being found those solutions can include resettlement

but really what we need is for an end to the violence we need to address the root causes of what's making people flee their homes and that involves those in the international community who have influence over warring parties it's key that influence is used to bring the warring parties to the table in dialogue and bring an end to the bloodshed i don't know the way you're very very sure of em but i just don't want to make the point very the united nations is there is that for them to do that so why is it failing to do it and why is it failing to move quickly enough on these issues. of these conflicts of political in nature and their solution is also political and the back can be the only solution at the moment we continue to have military escalations in many parts of the world but really it's only through peacemaking and peacebuilding can the refugee issue be addressed and this peacemaking efforts have been in short supply

in recent years so your u.n. high commissioner he says that the overall number of refugees is not unmanageable that was just not unmanageable for rich countries but don't the facts on the ground tell a different story germany italy france all having problems not just coping with the processing applications but also managing integration. what this is a remains a question of political will last year at the un general assembly states came together and agreed to develop the global compact on refugees and what this deal which remains in the pipeline involves is a stablish a new and comprehensive approach to managing the refugee crisis not only supports refugees but also supports host communities as well and when you give refugees the

chance to integrate and the chance to make social and economic contributions to the new society we see a much more peaceful harmonious existence and currently as it stands countries are bearing a disproportionate responsibility for receiving new arrivals there needs to be a fairer and more equitable distribution of refugees which the yeah actually from the u.n. agency i thank you. ok migration policy is also dividing the united states president trump came to power promising action against illegal immigrants now he's defending his administration's border protection policy in the face of rising outrage of the for separation of migrant children from that parents his call for tough action against illegal immigration and declare that the u.s. would not be a migrant camp and i'm brooke migrant children being separated from their parents has risen sharply since early may placing many children in sealed cabs with little or no contact with their families. their images which have shocked the world

children detained in cages separated from their parents this is the trumpet ministry sions zero tolerance policy in action opponents have likened the practice to torture the american academy of pediatrics has warned of quote irreparable harm one critic says the policy has been poorly planned many parents have no contact with their children well the government is saying there's a hotline that you can call and find out where your child is our understanding is that hotline isn't anything behati it's not working it's in english people don't know how to access it when they call nobody's answering so there's really been no thought put into this new initiative about how to ensure that a very bare minimum at least parents are aware of where their child is and they're allowed to communicate. despite bipartisan calls for an end to the policy the trump

administration is not backing down the justice department says they are simply enforcing the law a law which they blame congress for enacting we do not want to separate parents from their children you can be sure of their if we build a wall we pass legislation. we will face these terrible choices the numbers fall and president donald. has accused the democrats of refusing to come to the negotiating table to draft new laws he added the zero tolerance policy that's forcing the separation of families was introduced under his own republican administration. as each side blames the other the children in these detention centers are forced to cope with a new reality it could be months before they are reunited with their parents. let's take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world italy's new far right interior minister mr salivating says he will not back down from

a controversial proposal to conduct a census of his country's roma community a proposal has been shocked to criticize with a code deputy premier leader of the populist a five star movement describing it as unconstitutional. chinese president xi jinping has called on the your united states and north korea to implement measures agreed at last week's summit between kim jong un and president trump as he made the comments after the meetings with five to meetings with a north korean leader in beijing china is north korea's most important ally. a titanic champion boris becker does not tough diplomatic immunity he made the claim last week as he tried to avoid the bankruptcy proceedings in britain saying that he was a sports ambassador for the central african republic the cia are now declared backers suppose that diplomatic passport a fake. this is d.w. news still to come japan stuns colombia in their football world cup overnight in

russia we'll bring you the highlights. first though i'm over here at the bad news desk global stock in the stock indexes are folding as investors worried again about a trade war between china and the united states has threatened phil the bad news is that's true of the markets in asia pointed downwards germany's dax is among the european losers today down one point six percent a similar story in the u.s. the dow start of a similar amount. its sixth day of losses in a row the biggest hit was in shanghai the benchmark there dropping three point eight percent big exporters in industrials and bearing the brunt of the negative price action. meanwhile the two main parties are stoking the fire china accuses u.s. president donald trump of blackmail and says it will retaliate for the latest set

of terrorists threatened by washington trungpa starting an additional two hundred billion dollars worth of chinese imports with a ten percent levy. shoppers in china might not be interested in every twist and turn of the trade dispute between their country and the united states but the tit for tat spot could soon become apparent in their grocery bills these aren't jets imported from the us are among hundreds of goods beijing has bagged to tax in response to a fresh set of terrorist threats from washington. the move makes good on china's pledge to retaliate up to the united states imposed an initial set of tariffs on fifty billion dollars worth of chinese goods. but if you needed further proof that china is no longer adopting a conciliatory tone in response to donald trump take a listen to this. but in china does not want to fight a trade war but it's not scared of one. you will continue to take

effective steps to resolutely defend the country's interests of the people and to defend globalization and the multilateral trading regime. that defiance stance has also been reflected in the attitudes of some presidents in hong kong. i don't think can win this trade war china's china has a really big economy they have other people who they trade with although u.s. might be one of the. largest countries that they do trade with and most of their exports may go there but of. the u.s. is also going to suffer from this maybe just as much or even more than china is suffering on both sides that is appears to be the most likely outcome as the battle over tyrants threatens to explode into a full blown trade war. and fears about the effect of.

tariffs are weighing on the german economy as well the munich based research group downgraded its growth. the cost for this year from two point six to one point eight percent it follows a similar readjustment by other bodies including the german government other sources of concern include a shortage of skilled workers and its least debt crisis my colleague monica jones asked evil president claimants fus how the german economy is handling all these challenges. the german economy is relatively solid this is mostly because the domestic economy is steady wages are growing employment is growing so consumption is strong and the construction sector is expanding so the do with domestic economies supporting growth but the export sector is at risk here. after yesterday's shock arrest of its c.e.o. start la germany a german luxury carmaker audi has announced a temporary replacement but i'm sure it will take over while star remains in

custody under investigation for fraud shorter's a member of our is board of directors ways as head of marketing and sales shakeup started when prosecutors arrested starkiller concerned he was attempting to influence witnesses in the criminal investigation into the diesel emissions scandal star had been employed by v.w. since the early one nine hundred ninety s. and took the steering wheel of audi eleven years ago now let's bring in ali bart's in the frame for a financial correspondent there only about audi is brum short now the right man. he was perhaps the only man in the only board at the moment to seem suitable for the job to the people at the very top in the supervisory board especially the trade unions in lower saxony in the family's portion ph and read a description of him he seems an empathetic man that as a people person listening to people and at the same time self-confident but not

seeking the limelight those aren't the worst kind of qualities for a c.e.o. some would say unusual qualities of listening and not seeking the limelight but we'll see how it turns out he will probably be in that role until it's decided that rupert stop there is out or he returns see after perhaps the judiciary decides that he has one thing going for a member and shot he's only been with already since last september so any wrongdoing i would say that goes back years he would have nothing to do with that from out of the clear conscience it seems that the investigations into the legal issues is making progress does not mean the whole diesel gates saga is nearing its president resolution and that the v.w. board can can take a breather. i don't think either is the case the board can take a breather because it must fear further evidence for the resolution because of

course incriminating evidence could become even more costly for the company in suing further court cases and of course the fact that the resolution is near depends on what rupert stadler says if the board of the family treats him well and . you know has his continuing pay and everything then he has no motive to incriminate people all by himself unless the judiciary really force essential only balance a fine thank you very much for this isn't. and that's all your business and it's back to phil now. for some world cup action i believe it did yes japan have cruised through to an unexpected victory of colombia in group h. it was their first picture of a club and it was action packed after just three seconds carlos sanchez was sent off after this handball the second fastest red card to world cup history shinji kagawa. japan in from. colombia battled back and prodded fernando can tell level
