surfers fighting against own seem to see george join fourteen. this is d.w. news live from berlin and the deal is revealed chancellor angela merkel securest new agreements across europe to curb migrant flows into germany but is the stricter e.u. asylum policy enough to appease the rebels in her government and save her job also coming up. at the soccer world cup in russia france are through to the quarter

final after beating argentina for three in a rollercoaster match it's the end of the road for argentina and their superstar lee and all that see who are out of the tournament. omarion and unseen it's good to have you with us. it's been a make or break week for german chancellor angela merkel and now she appears to have delivered a deal that could salvage her fractured coalition merkel has secured agreements with a further fourteen you countries for the rapid return of asylum seekers she's also called for a migrant processing centers at germany's borders as detailed in a letter sent to coalition leaders merkel had faced a sunday deadline from a rebel faction her government to overhaul the e.u.'s migration approach she told reporters in brussels the deal could be enough to end the standoff. with the state

premier of bavaria marcus it or appraise the e.u. agreement saying that it was more than his conservative party expected but he cautioned that some of the measures were vague and more would have to be done. but really he's this what was agreed in brussels was a lot more than expected and it's definitely a step in the right direction a lot of the measures that have been agreed are things that alba varian c.s.u. policy was demanding i think the summit it wouldn't have achieved as much as it did very had not pushed so hard so bavaria achieved a lot since elements since. well for some analysis on all this i'm joined in the studio now by our chief political correspondent melinda crane similar in that we just heard of the various state premier and he did sound rather satisfy it is this an indication that the dispute between chancellor merkel and the c.s.u. is now resolved we just don't know yet and we probably won't know until tomorrow

afternoon or evening the leadership of both parties is meeting separately and they will be talking about whether these deals that were agreed on both by e.u. leaders at their summit at the end of last week but at this week but also but with the chancellor between in bilateral agreements with e.u. member countries fourteen we're told whether that's enough to placate the c.s.u. if you remember the conflict was precipitated by the varying conservatives the christian social union they are the sister party of the chancellor they haven't been behaving very sisterly basically giving the chancellor ultimatum saying that if she didn't come up with a satisfactory deal they would move on monday this coming monday to essentially turn back refugees at the german border who had been registered in another e.u. country namely the countries on europe's southern periphery so the head of the c.s.u.

has by no means disavowed that ultimatum despite the conciliatory statements that we just heard there and it will only be clear tomorrow possibly the sea evening because we're told that the head of the c.s.u. is meeting the seething with the chancellor but i think we won't get an announcement yet until tomorrow whether in fact the c.s.u. is satisfied or not all right so perhaps chancellor merkel i'm not out of the woods yet but this of course has been a very tense time for the chancellor but melinda of course this is more than just about german politics all of these discussions about migrants coming into the e.u. we're talking about people who are fleeing war or. horrible conditions what does this mean for them well this the agreement that the e.u. leaders came up with at their summit is essentially an agreement about the external border of the european union to tighten that to create new centers both

within e.u. countries of first arrival but also offshore in northern africa so somebody's trying to leave africa either for political reasons or for economic reasons let's say that person tries to get onto a boat they might be intercepted at sea turned back and brought to these disembarkation centers in northern africa we are told that those centers will be run in accordance with international human rights law unclear whether in fact that will be the case otherwise if they make it to europe they might wind up in a closed center in a country like italy or greece again those closed centers that have been exit the existence until now have not always gotten very positive assessments from human rights observers so both of those in some to some degree are meant to deter people from trying to flee to europe but as you point out many of them are fleeing in fear of their lives whether in fact this will serve as

a deterrent is very unclear all right chief political correspondent belinda crane many thanks indeed for all your insights. now part of the e.u. migration overhaul calls for asylum processing centers eventually to be established in north africa but many of the countries seen as potential host so far want nothing to do with the proposed centers which are aimed at preventing migrants from making the perilous journey across the mediterranean. they have been saved. people often land after their boat thank you for this is a daily occurrence off the coast of libya the e.u. wants to place people who have been rescued from the waters of the mediterranean in regional centers in north africa but critics say that is just outsourcing the problem and more importantly those countries where the center should be situated have yet to consent morocco has already said no we do not want to act as e.u. police. position regarding such processing centers is clear we

have never supported this method of stopping refugees and we never will. tunisia is not yet a transit country perhaps due to its smaller size but it fears it will become one if the e.u. plans are realized algeria and egypt also dismissed that you plan to date egypt has remained on the sidelines of the refugee crisis. there is no isolation nor any centers for refugees these kinds of centers in certain regions just don't exist in egypt. libya is the nexus of refugee traffic to the e.u. human smugglers take advantage of the catholic situation due to the civil war observers say it's hard to imagine libya as a reliable partner we think that's what's actually going to happen in reality is if these centers will be in europe. if there are centers in north africa they need to

have the agreement of the country they need to have the support of the country they need to have the highest international standards they currently don't so anything that's happening in libya is excluded for countries to participate the e.u. may need to sweeten its offer egypt for example would welcome money for its flagging economy but numerous rounds of negotiations are likely ahead before anything is decided. a weeks of infighting over migration have a. rift. in merkel's government and germany's far right opposition now want to count that all eyes on that division the party currently has around fifteen percent backing in public opinion polls which is a slight improvement on last year's election result but still far behind the conservatives once he opened his party's conference this weekend alexander gollum's the leader of the alternative for germany party said chancellor merkel has left the country isolated on the international stage. right

now germany's enemies with russia again because of putin and with the americans because of trump it's enemies with britain because of brecht's that our relationship with poland hungary italy and even austria terrible ladies and gentlemen dig back to the last german leader many enemies. but you know i don't want to make that comparison. and now to some of the other stories making news around the world. protests are being held in cities across the u.s. against president donald trump's policy of separating migrant families rallies come just by trump's decision to end the practice thousands of children remain split from their parents in custody protesters are aiming to make the issue a key factor in midterm elections in november. two viking sites in northern germany

have been declared unesco world heritage sites headed by was once the most important trade hub in northern europe it was added to the prestigious list together with the defense fortifications known as the donna vehicle they're among the best preserved viking age science in the world. all right the soccer world cup continues to bring lots of thrills and today's first knockout game is no exception to fully listen to the lead sports joins me now for more on all the actions of problem i actually did get to watch that match up between argentina against france seven goal rollercoaster what a thrilling match that really was it was of one of those matches that you always want to see in the world cope i've had everything i have the drama that you needed out all those goals but you know what we need to do we need to take a look at those goals let's like look at this report. the blistering run from the

phenomenal kilian back pay was too much for argentina to deal with marcus were hopeful pay down i'm told griezmann converted the resulting penalty i it was pays paris a german team make the most equalized with this outstanding strike just before half time just after the break argentina went in front thanks to a clever little touch from god. to still live overseas job. but the pendulum had another swing it. benjamin powered stroke to find hard folly all the way into the back of the net then the result this map a school dick i can't immediately afterwards see three goals in just eleven minutes to turn the tide completely on its head substitute sergio aguero did one more hoping it should time but it wasn't enough for an ambitious argentina side it's a disastrous exit. much of the focus the for the game may have been

on argentina but france of course were really impressive that's right and argentina were in the headlines for all the wrong reasons but we'll get to that in a little bit we really need to focus on france because as you said they were they were incredibly incredibly impressive the main with a squad that like like that because then they have got i'm hungry when you've got puck but you've got rough ales around and then of course you know you've got kenya and but they who breed was incredible let's not forget one thing he's only nineteen years old the last time france won the world cup was in one thousand nine hundred eighty he wasn't even born yet because he was actually born later that year but you know what let's hear from the man himself because he was of course delighted with that result. close to the beach. but i'm pleased i feel good people said that we hadn't done anything good up till now but we had a complicated group and now it's the great team with great players we did well obviously much better. all right so does this mean if the end for atlanta on this

information gina well i mean at the end of day let's not forget that you know messi is thirty one years old so the next time around he'll be thirty five it was a little bit of a disastrous world cup for argentina to say the least i was reading a lot of the argentinian newspapers looking at argentina and argentinian media during the week and to say that they were getting into it was not positive what they were saying let's just say about but of course the n.l. messi you know he's a player who's just he's one of the best in the world he has no problem scoring i mean argentina detroit today we saw that real you know attempt in the dying minutes of the game to sort of try and equalize with france but it just wasn't enough and there was a lot of criticism saying that there were major issues in the squad there was a complete breakdown between the squad on the coach you know some polly who was getting a lot of criticism for the way he was handling everything so it's a sad time for not only on messi probably as well for mascherano and also because

these are players who are sort of nearing the end of their careers will say so you know sometimes for argentina they're going to have to face the music now when they get back to one of the latest all right pablo just quickly the day's other game still ongoing that's right portugal against uruguay now europe why we're in front of course portugal really want to win this i think is going to be a tight affair it was a little bit underwhelming after the goal came in and maybe now in the second half things are going to look up have all we're going to find out that enough we'll have a full of the answer for its many thanks as always thanks martin. well it was supposed to travel into the vastness of space but it barely got off the ground executives from a startup in japan were puzzled when their rocket crashed in spectacular fashion shortly after takeoff. the rocket suffered a catastrophic engine failure that sent it plummeting oh dear back down to earth
