this is data over the years one from donald trump promises to sign an executive order on immigration that has been mounting outrage over his administration's policy of separating migrant children from their families at the border the president now says it's got to be keeping families together also on the program the rush to solve for europe's migration crisis and the battle prepares for how morocco european immigration policy but other e.u. leaders this weekend she's under increasing pressure from her own interior minister to secure germany's borders if she doesn't it could spell the end of her coalition

and her own political future. on day seven of the football world cup in russia portugal i took on iraq over superstar christiane over and over did what he does best we'll show you how the one turned up. i'm phil gal welcome to the program u.s. president donald trump has said that he will move to end the controversial policy of separating immigrant families at the country's southern border the president said he would sign something preemptive soon that would address the issue it's not yet clear what the president intends to sign the trumpet ministrations current policy means that every migrant crossing the border illegally is subject to criminal prosecution and children are not allowed in federal jail they have to be there they've been removed from their parents and placed in state care the practice is drawn condemnation internationally and in the united states is what the

president had to say a short while ago. we are very strong at the border we're very strong on security we want security for our country the republicans want security and insist on security for our country and we will have that at the same time we have compassion we want to keep families together it's very important i'll be signing something a little while that's going to do that and the people in this room want to do that and they're working on various pieces of legislation to get it done but i'll be doing something that's somewhat preemptive but ultimately will be matched by legislation i'm sure. ok so still keeping us in suspense let's get more from d.w. correspondent in washington custom phenomena welcome custom why what is behind this move. but it seems that the protests all over the country and the pictures of crying children behind fences and

actually in cages really seem to have had an effect on the front was making these statements as he was meeting republican lawmakers senators and representatives from the house of representatives and in front of the cameras they all said they are in favor of. strict immigration rules and of secure borders but it seems that behind the scenes they have told the president that his zero tolerance policy to charge all illegal immigrants as criminals and taking the children away from them was not his best idea several senators and congressmen had previously also criticized the move a number of republican governors had even moved their national guard troops away from the border because they didn't want to be associated with this policy and some christian evangelical leaders who normally support the president no matter what's

also have voiced concern so all that seems to have moved on the trump. to this decision we're not quite sure whether he really signed the executive order today but probably today or tomorrow and so how is this being a view in washington is this is this a defeat for the administration or are there or are they buying to the will of the people. what don't trump is trying not to show it to to let people see it that way but yeah it is a defeat for him i would say because he was clearly trying to use these children as a bargaining chip to put pressure. and congress not only to get stricter laws on immigration but also to force congress to give him money for the border war that he promised he would build actually he promised that mexico would pay for it but he wants money from congress now to pay for that wall and clearly wanted to use this

issue to put pressure on the democrats to agree on some kind of comprehensive immigration reform including money for the wall and that's clearly has failed because donald trump in a way had to admit now that this was not about legislation this was about his executive power and the zero tolerance policy that his administration introduced just a few weeks ago he could have ended it any day and it seems that he's doing it now cause of phenomena in washington thank you. i'm going back and we'll meet with leaders this weekend trying to harass assess solution to the issue of migration into the block they divisive subjects threatening the german chancellor's coalition government and going to mexico is an odds with her interior minister who has given her a two week deadline to secure a unified e.u. plan to tighten border controls although the two conservatives are putting a friendly face putting on a friendly face now a conflict between them is threatening calls political future. no new ultimatums no

angry words until america and hosts a whole foot chatted with one another as if they had never been at odds. during a commemoration for german refugees after the second world war the varian conservatives they hope to seem less confrontational than in recent weeks phone of a first of all julie thanks to the chancellor. you've made this day of remembrance something special for space on the air and for this i thank you thank you. say hope i did not explicitly mention the conflict between americans conservative c.d.u. and it's been very and sister party the c.s.u. machall repeated that she does not want to close germany's borders to certain refugees without first having made agreements with neighboring countries. the money slipped and then whichever way you look at it migration is

a european challenge perhaps the greatest challenge at the moment the cohesion of the european union is at stake this is our ma it is all peace in u. . a former refugee said an emotional highpoint a tamil who as a thirteen year old fled to germany without his parents and then grew up and started an impressive career years. it's been a tribal issue i didn't become a refugee voluntarily but i did come to germany voluntarily because it's so wonderful to live in a country where democracy reigns where we respect the constitution we must never allow our fundamental values to be threatened if it. back and say who seem to be moved by the story of a man who went from refugee to heart surgery. the two conservative leaders or at least trying to mend fences. which obviously i didn't hear any remarks against me when the chancellor sat down i said nothing that ramped up today did it with talk.

it didn't come and hope. the c.s.u. chairman has struck a conciliatory tone but that doesn't mean he's necessarily changed his position. so we have domestic good german politics and their potential effect on the europe let's bring in europe correspondent bob of a slim brussels simon young in welcome both with you simon what are we to make of this apparent rapprochement between chancellor and interior minister. well phil today wasn't the day for sharp words or public displays of hostility or stay home for he's already got his tanks parked on medicals lawn and that is to say that he's threatened to take tough action on migration if merkel doesn't come up with real progress as he sees it on the issue. within the next couple of weeks leading up to

that a european summit next week everyone knows that it hasn't changed of course this wasn't an occasion for you know being difficult or emphasizing the differences between them this was a commemorative event for second world war refugees it's also marking world refugee day and by the way a horse a half a nice to watch out it doesn't get too tough that he doesn't start to look like europe donald trump you know medical will be going to lebanon tomorrow should be meeting syrian refugees and she's always stressed the humanitarian aspect of the migration issue of course and horsed they hope for the interior minister needs to respect that as well when revival in brussels these tanks parked on the chances of problems at this meeting on sunday tell us who is invited and what they hope to achieve. now germany of course will come and belgium that's the news the rival at

this mini summit and of course france and spain and italy and greece and bulgaria marlice all countries who are somehow touched by the flow of migrants into europe and they will try on to hash out some sort of compromise before they meet in the big round of twenty eight next thursday because it is known to be difficult in those very long nightly negotiations to come to a result so they try to prepare the ground and we have already seen some draft notes that will be on the table on sunday and they talk about for instance harmonizing the asylum rules in europe and making it making it more difficult to cross from one country into another this is directly what the horse wants to prevent that and bring migrants back to the country where they're first arrived so we can wait for some opposition from italy there so there is something on the table

that we could basically if it goes through change migrant policy in you from a very fundamental point and simon young what sort of deal does chancellor merkel have to come up with after the european summit in order to satisfy wholesale. or stay home furnace biz varian conservatives want a deal that allows them to turn away. migrants at the german border or other rules that amount to the same thing that have the same effect yesterday and go americal agreed with the french president he would stop asylum seekers coming through to try and cross the german border that might be enough to satisfy them but these are national solutions the problem is that angle americal doesn't want that she wants a europe wide solution and at the same time you've got countries like italy threatening to let people through and send them through to germany so the situation is critical simon young in berlin barber those with brussels thank you.
