6:01 pm
the rocco with superstar christiane have been although doing what he does best will show you how the one time times. i'm feel good and welcome to the program. a group of leaders to meet on sunday at a mini summit to deal with the divisive subject of migration into the bloc time is of the essence as this issue is threatening the german chancellor's coalition government and america is at odds with her interior minister who has threatened to defy the chancellor and tighten controls at germany's border unless she can secure a unified e.u. response at an e.u. summit proper by the end of the bath. the fact that they are still talking is already news worthy as chancellor angela merkel and her interior minister hosses evolve of her c.d.u. party's conservative bavarian sister c.s.u. party continue their bitter feud over asylum policy which is fast becoming about
6:02 pm
the future of the e.u. . on tuesday machall and french president. agreed to aim for a common euro zone budget by twenty twenty one on. the c.s.u. is pushing back in germany's largest tabloid it criticize merkel for having made too great a concession to moscow machall c.d.u. allies are worried that this could spark more division at a crucial time you're seeing in we are in a situation in europe in which everything necessary is being done to keep this europe together trump is doing everything he can to harass us we need allies in europe and that's why this is a key issue. unphased the c.s.u. keeps provoking medical it's the very end state primary sudha met with austrian chancellor is a bust and courts in the austrian city of linz. both want to clamp down on the influx of refugees. it's resentment solidarity in europe will ultimately be decided
6:03 pm
by whether we succeed in bringing about a change on the migration issue i mean chancellor merkel will meet the leaders of key e.u. countries at a crisis summit in brussels this weekend the outcome of that meeting could rescue or sink her chancellorship. let's talk about summits and matters arising with the don't you correspondent barbara based in brussels barbara so who is invited on sunday and what do they hope to achieve now this is the group of the willing in a sense germany italy france spain bulgaria greece and some other countries might yet come and invite themselves to this pre-summit meeting where they're trying to figure out where compromise is and how compromises can be made on migration policy because looking at the summit next week the real summit in brussels you have one to two negotiate and that is sometimes too short to really find to build bridges and
6:04 pm
to hammer out solutions for things that have been not solvable so far so that's what is at stake and what is on the table for this mini preparatory summit where is the common ground where the differences. the common ground is of course better border protection that the e.u. has been talking about that for years which seems like decades i mean every summer they say yeah we need better border protection now if it comes up for people to give money and particularly to give personnel nobody really volunteers that needs to change and probably america will sort of put something on the table in that regard to satisfy critics there and say we really increasing people on the borders and really sort of tightening the borders politicians european politicians. migrant camps refugee camps outside on non e.u. territory and so austria already is in negotiations was all dania serbia and that's
6:05 pm
a donya the italian interior minister salvini is going to live in next week so there is a lot of movement and there and the president of the council to even put something on the table for the summit could chems like that somewhere outside be the solution to the problem so that is one direction in which people are going and the distance is of course is clear it really doesn't want to keep the people that need to stay there should stay there quoting to the dublin rules and that will be contentious till the very end. let's hear from the chancellor herself regardless of domestic political considerations chancellor merkel a fish stage is determined to stick to. germany stands by its responsibility to protect people fleeing war and terror as well as its responsibility for the cohesion of europe the two belong together whichever way you look at it migration is a european challenge perhaps our greatest challenge at the moment and the cohesion
6:06 pm
of this european union is at stake this kid. so this meeting that is due to happen on sunday viewed from a job perspective where there is few broad political atmosphere it looks as though migration which was already a big topic has moved up the list was this meeting going to happen anyway. no probably not it would not have happened because the way i see it here is that i'm going to america needs help and there are some countries in europe particularly friends but even some other countries who think that she needs some people who have her back who sort of give her a hand in pulling pulling things back together because the feeling is this time in there are so many european crises but the feeling this time is that this is a real crisis and this is fostered by the rising populism in some parts of europe
6:07 pm
and that needs a response and that needs a unified response and that's what america and some of her political friends who are still there are trying to achieve right it's been a serious issue for the last two or three years now it's really serious professional in brussels thank you now hungary's prime minister viktor obama has emerged as a leading figure of the e.u.'s hardline immigration wing today its conservative led parliament approved a raft of tough new bills on migrants related issues the package of legislation known as a stop soros makes it illegal to help asylum seekers were not entitled to protection in hungary a change to the constitution was also approved outgoing settling foreign populations in the country this is seen as a swipe at you plans to distribute migrants by quota. budapest speaks for the open society foundations which was founded by george soros
6:08 pm
welcome to d w so these laws are known as stop soros why is your founder seen such a threat by the government. this is a political communication product i mean the stock photo shoot legislation and the whole campaign which was conducted by the government. be huge taxpayers' money millions of euros worth pence for on the shore of campaign and creating from him as an enemy of state and this is why. the question is why mr orbán of wanted to distract the attention of the hungarian society from more pressing issues including corruption stories and corruption scandals related to the government party why is hungary so against accepting refugees and migrants. this is again
6:09 pm
a company product yet see. particularly hungary is not our target country and not a continent for for any kind of immigration even for or for refugees so practically hungary is on the route from from syria to turkey and bought trains to toward the euro and particularly towards direction to germany and their four hundred plays a role in this. battle in europe. because the border crossing is a key issue in india discussion and debate we under the leaders and this is why why the need i mean the government needed anomie the face. you're the position quite clear but that doesn't really answer my question which is
6:10 pm
why hungary is so against immigrants this present government made immigration into hungary a big battleground and one heavily on the issue so let me repeat the question why is hungary so we're going to migrants. not angry but getting government party which one donation. people forgers on the actions but very very simplified message that the migrants refugees and any other. migrants would destroy our culture would take our homeland and destroy our college or history and and all what we already have so this is what. heat. people in particular will choose an encounter side and won't get under the people who check facts and use leisure in
6:11 pm
this industry and therefore. the measure of the government party. thank you for joining us. from the who speaks for the open society foundations thank you. thank you and some of the other stories making news around the world british prime minister theresa may has won a crucial vote in parliament's lower house on legislation and government saw off of rebellion by pro e.u. lawmakers who wanted to strengthen the power of m.p.'s to intervene if no breaks a deal is reached before march next year. israeli warplanes launched airstrikes on the gaza strip early on wednesday military officials say they targeted two dozen positions linked to islamist group hamas in response to rockets launched towards israel officials in gases say several people were injured exchange of fire comes amid months of heightened tension in the region. president says he said he had to
6:12 pm
allegation for talks to neighboring ethiopia two countries have been involved in one of africa's most intractable standoffs for decades earlier this month however ethiopia said that it would fully accept the terms of a peace deal with eritrea made in two thousand. in the united states speaker of the house paul ryan has said that lawmakers will vote tomorrow on the immigration legislation designed in part to end a policy of separating parents from children at the border the trumpet ministrations current policy means that every migrant crossing the border illegally is subject to criminal prosecution since children are not allowed in federal jail they are removed from their parents and placed in state care the practice has proven deeply controversial and drawn international condemnation. let's hear more from g.w. washington correspondent carson phenomena welcome carstens of the house of representatives the votes tomorrow on ending this practice which way is it likely to go.
6:13 pm
well that remains to be seen also we have to keep in mind that there are two different bills in the house of representatives and in the senate and in the end of course those two bills have to mirror each other so this there is some work to do for the republicans first of all to agree on a bill that both houses can agree to both chambers of congress and then of course in the senate the republicans might need some votes from the democrats and then depends on whether the republicans are trying to sneak some provisions on tougher immigration laws into such a bill or if they even want money for donald trump's border wall on the border with mexico or something which is of course unacceptable for the democrats they claim that on the trump is holding those children at the border hostage to force congress to give him money for that wall and they will have none of that and so how is the
6:14 pm
administration viewing these moves. well it seems that something is happening on a just a few minutes ago and now instead he will sign something soon in a little while he said and he will need to members of congress again today he met them yesterday at congress on capitol hill and now it seems that members of congress will come to the white house soon if he will announce something if you will sign something today still remains to be seen but clearly there is some pressure on the administration right now on donald trump because the pictures that people here in america see crying children behind. fences in cages is not playing out well with the the voters in general and give. and that this is public
6:15 pm
outrage over the last few days what we have seen is donald trump sort of doubling down on this so it does look like there is some movement that. yes because clearly some republicans fear that this might hurt them at the ballot boxes in the upcoming midterm elections in november if this controversy drags on and so number of republican governors have withdrawn their national guard troops from the border because they don't want to be associated with this iraq tolerance policy from donald trump some moderate republicans in the senate in the house have spoken out against it even some evangelical christian leaders who normally support president trump no matter what have criticized this or at least voiced concerns still as you said the president so far had doubled down maybe doesn't movement now because basically he knows that this policy is popular with his core base. good
6:16 pm
talking to custard as ever cause of phenomena in washington thank you. this is the day we news live from berlin still to come the world cup portugal took on morocco with superstar cristiana rinaldo taking the bus but like ok. about that and counter and i it well the trade spat between china and the united states is continuing to annoy the markets. looking lovely said dave isay has more thank you very much it's true this concern in markets all over the world that this trade dispute between the u.s. and china might turn into an all out trade war with the us some the being the bad guys in china a victim after all the country's president xi jinping has been sending a consistent message for more than a year now to china is open for business but foreign investors there are actually telling a different story. whenever the cameras are on paying has
6:17 pm
a clear message for the global community gigi change your hearts and we have to say no to protectionism it would be akin to hiding in a dark room where you wouldn't be bothered by wind and rain but he would also not be getting light and fresh air. a lot of. in speeches like in davos twenty seventeen the chinese president has worked hard to paint a friendly picture of an open market china every liable corporate and trading partner to the west. but for many foreign businesses in china it's an entirely different picture according to a study by the european chamber of commerce in beijing sixty two percent of their member companies feel that they are not treated us well in china as year up treats chinese businesses case in point take over foreign investments in chinese companies are banned while china invests heavily abroad if the result of american actions is
6:18 pm
that american. dream. strictures eventually. instead of engaging through. positions of. twenty seventeen chinese companies spend thirteen point seven billion dollars on a corporate shopping spree in germany alone among recent transactions are the takeover of robot maker coo car by media as well as major investments in german flagship companies like dimer and deutsche bank each of which has chinese investors holding a ten percent stake. what makes matters worse european companies don't seem to have an edge anymore as innovators the majority of businesses see their chinese counterparts at least asked or even more innovative. let's bring in our
6:19 pm
financial correspondent. frank. development on the markets over those trade jitters that continue. yeah the jitters are getting worse and people are issuing all sorts of pills business people traders here condom us to please stop escalating this thing and to stop threatening because a trade war would threaten growth and there's been a number of prognoses a number of statements to the effect the georgia bundesbank for example saying that a world trade conflict would hurt growth and actually central bankers who are meeting at the moment in central and portugal also giving a gloomy view saying that business sentiment is being affected and they might have to downgrade their forecasts the tariff dispute at the most at the moment is not the only concern is it. you know there's concerns about the financial stability in
6:20 pm
italy if italy were to come under extreme pressure in the financial markets that could be a problem merkel's government the german government here under a chance or underline not to it's under attack by her own coalition c.s.u. partner and last not least the central banks just mentioned them having worries but people are also worried they might move too quickly on tapering that is tightening policy or perhaps too slowly. all that said so how did the ducks stay mainly in positive territory today. yeah you know that you're right it did stay in positive territory and that sounds amazing considering all the risks and all the crises there but you have to look at it as an up and down session it was never a very solid trend going up lots of nervousness is being shown by that and when you look at the trend in the past few days the trend was downward and it's not
6:21 pm
a very convincing recovery anywhere in new york and japan or here in frankfurt only bought in frankfurt thank you very much. the dow jones is kicked out industrial giant general electric from its leading stock index to you has been part of the dow jones industrial average for more than a century it was just recently one of the largest listed groups in the world but as fallen on hard times since its stock price plummeting in the past year from twenty seven dollars to just over twelve the company is not ruined by the move part it is a serious blow to its reputation. going to nigeria where oil is both a blessing and a curse it brings a lot of money into the country of course but it's also feeds the country's run corruption the latter is being highlighted by a court case in italy right now prosecutors there are looking into the sale of oil rights along nigeria's coast involving royal dutch shell and the italian energy
6:22 pm
company in. nigeria should be rich the west african country is one of the world's most important oil producing nations but the oil revenues here never reach the population corruption is rampant in the west african country. this man danny t.t. the former nigerian minister of petroleum and convicted money launderer is said to be a big player in the system in twenty eleven a company he controlled was allegedly given one point three billion dollars by the dutch oil giant royal dutch shell and italian power company nine in return for the exploitation rights for a big oil field the money was reportedly divided up between politicians only a fraction of it landed in the nigerian treasury now more than a dozen managers from show and d.n.i. are on trial in italy. and that's all your business time for
6:23 pm
some sports now with our dynamic duo phil and crays thanks so much yes we are updating you on the world cup chris how is it from have to do sport is here to fill us in on the action welcome welcome so let us start with portugal defeating barack one nil in the other much here that was expected result i thought there'd be more goal production but as usual it was chris shallower naldo and after this result he now leads in the golden boot race in the world cup i think we have some video of the action we can take a look at now it he didn't waste any time getting on the scoreboard a corner kick if we can look at the video i think we should have it if not i can just tell you here it is right at the corner kick the owl. provide the corner kick in a crescendo and although it's able to actually make this in a pitch black room i've seen it on a video he's amazing and morocco on the other hand they try to equalize but it was
6:24 pm
this to no avail they were no pushover though they did try their best to get on the board there but as you can see there are some clear and high five in question and although. they did miss out a chance to make it to nail i was shocked that they didn't provide more goals considering the hat trick that crescendo when all the provided for his team in the first match versus spain but all that all job done now they have four points ok. he has performed as expected what have you made of his performance of you know as of right now i'm really thinking of changing it from the russia world cup to the ronaldo world cup because you know you always compare first the hatchery against spang first time that's ever happened in the history against spain that's an accomplishment and then today's goal he just edged out the highest score in european and international history he netted is eighty fifth goal surpassing the former spain in hungary and striker frank. so that's an accomplishment in itself and even his teammate isco for spain told him after they had tricked for real
6:25 pm
madrid their teammate he said i am not talking to you anymore because you kind of embarrass me out there but all in all he's looks really good and then comparing him to messi in the mist penalty hey they both have five ballon dawes christian overall though right now is making a case to claim the title is the greatest play the game is he's having a good world cup so far so portugal leading group b. let's stay with iran and spain kicking off tonight how to say a landslide landslide first spain you know we have to go coast he scored a brace against portugal nacho can add a third goal you know the question is going to surround david began you know because he literally let the least slip through his fingers in the match and even with portugal the word trust is the buzz word in the spanish can't right now you know they made it very clear they trust him he is a world class goalkeeper and you know they're up against an opponent iran only got their second world cup victory in the history of their program against morocco and
6:26 pm
they didn't score a goal that was an own goal ok so they'll have to rule out some home goals i doubt the spanish defense will help them with that so i do think it's forced him ahead i think that they'll win convincingly and what about host nation russia event during very well yes but that's typically what happens phil you know the host nations typically have the momentum behind them and maybe it's a lax whistle from the referee i mean a lot of no calls on the pitch. but they exploded in the tournament five goals in the opener and then three goals they have eight goals in total they're the top of their group and the goal difference will definitely get them through. thank you so much ok. let me bring you some breaking news this just ratios here a day w. u.s. president donald trump says he will sign an executive order in the coming hours to keep migrant families together the border with mexico there has been growing outrage in the united states over his administration's zero tolerance policy. so we'll bring you out more all not so out of course the rest of the day you said news
