a leftist candidate and based on well lopez obrador in the country's presidential election the former mayor of mexico city has promised to stamp out corruption. and at the world cup croatia booked their spot in the quarter final they squeeze past denmark in a penalty shoot out and will now face hosts russia. i'm sumi so misconduct good to have you with us chaos grips germany's government as a feudal for migration endangers uncle merkel's ruling coalition last ditch talks among the chancers conservative bloc are now set for later today on sunday interior minister hosts a whole five threaten to quit his post over michaelson systems on an e.u. wide migration policy his resignation could lead to the breakup of the decades long conservative alliance but say hopeless as he'll meet once more with merkel to try
2:02 pm
to resolve the crisis. you know one year we will talk one more time in the interest of our country and the capacity for action of our government which we want to maintain we intend to make a further attempt at reaching agreement on the central question of border controls and turning people back on this question alone. and i hope that this effort succeeds. this is a concession from me now that we're making this attempt. otherwise everything would have already been final today. did obvious political correspondent is following the latest he has a reporting live from where the city you and c.s.u. are meeting at this hour however efforts so they hope will be talking with michael again in a few hours but tell us first of all what's been happening where you are. well we on the german bunds talk today and there's
2:03 pm
a meeting taking place all of the parliamentary parties of c.d.u. and sees you the conservative bloc of anglo machall that this meeting at all is taking place so hold shows how difficult it it is for see the un sees you to find agreements even on the small the scale the c.d.u. didn't really want this meeting to happen today there were fearing that some m.p.'s some could ask for votes on the crucial issues which could have shown that the rift is not only going between the two parties c.d.u. and sees you but also that there are some rather conservative m.p.'s within the c.d.u. that are supporting these sees you so they didn't want this meeting to happen they didn't want to take the risk for this vote. but the seas you called for this meeting and they pushed it through. and now it's going to take place but form so far what we have heard is that the that the boards of the parliamentary parties
2:04 pm
both have already agreed on some sort of a statement just as we want to wait for the talks between uncle americal and wholesale for later today and we are calling for some sort of unity we want them to agree on something so in the end the this meeting today right now is trying to already show some sort of a compromise also the willingness to compromise of both parties all of this comes after the interior minister offered to resign over the migration route yesterday what is it that he really wants from right is there really such a big difference between what he and what chancellor merkel are after. well if you look at the minute details of the difference between anglo american and whole see hope for isn't that big it all comes down to the issue of rejecting refugees which have already been registered and some of the european countries of rejecting them out the border which would in the end mean reinstating border control in germany
2:05 pm
this is something to be a chancellor is supposed to hold see who for one sit sit very very much so this is likely the one detail but in the end it's about migration policy at the whole of the seas you and wholesale far as it's party chairman have been very much against this refugee policy of angela merkel for the last three years and they want to send out the signal that they have changed pushed on glo medical into a change of this migration policy and this is something uncle americal and his you do you are not willing to accept these political correspondent will but read about where they see you and say yes you are meeting at the bundestag today thank you very much that the european union has launched legal proceedings against poland that could result in the country losing its voting rights in the block the legal action is over reforms to poland supreme court the brussels says undermine democratic checks and balances on tuesday a law takes effect in poland forcing the early retirement of multiple supreme court
2:06 pm
judges the polish government says the changes are needed to reform a system that dates back to communist time. another dramatic day at the world cup in russia the hosts pulling off a big shock to beat spain we have tom tonight from v.w. sports to talk to us about this hi tom this was a big big surprise in russia knocking out essentially a turn at favorite so yeah i mean state has been among the favorites there were a lot of they were picked by a lot of people as one of the teams that potentially had the chance to go all the way and when you look at their squads you can see why they have a lot of champions league winners in their previous world cup winners and it's a very big coup for russia and i think we're going to take a look actually and see how the game unfolded. when marco asensio swung in a deep free kick on the own sergio ramos made himself a nuisance ignatiev it was overwhelmed and unfortunate
2:07 pm
a goal sourced by delhi front but the hosts pulled themselves back a corner shortly before half time was met with the hand blue from gerrard ok the referee gave a penalty which also in juba smashed to bring russia net i incredible moment for the hosts in front of and in light speed trap i may continue to grind through the second half and extra time with the favorites finding reading this one was destined to go the distance. and it was the russians who have bene converting for out so full penalties while goalkeeper ego i can feel you have made himself a hero week two seconds. i should but you must thank you for all the supports you know i already said before the tournament we have to believe in ourselves and we did it that way we have an amazing championship and it's not just the russian fans the fans from other countries that have been infected by the
2:08 pm
atmosphere here and they understand that russia knows how to have fun but that's a little bit of insight as i said i russia's whole world cup dream lives on i write tom so russia looking impressive there and that's that's a push out on against croatia because croatia big denmark last night what do you think this croatia team will i mean it's now i've had some time to reflect a bit more on the crisis and really as i think a lot of people have because of this a performance last night was slightly surprising it wasn't how we'd seen them playing before and during the groups they go to part of major in the group stage they were very impressed if they were really taking teams apart we remember of course that fantastic three male victory against argentina last night that's not quite the team that we got to say they won as impressive they weren't quite as dominant but they did pull through and again we're going to take a look and see how that happens. denmark got off to the perfect starts as mathias you'll consider his side but if the second was not croatia struck back
2:09 pm
just minutes later it was marion and you keep trying his side in a meeting it was like a penalty mr luker margaret said to try to append to chichen itza was even reckon t. g.'s kick shield the key for the play she was setting up the quarter final showdown with russia was. now of course when you see one hundred twenty minutes of football condensed into a short report that the likelihood usually is that you've missed a lot. reporting on last night i have to say there wasn't really much else to miss it was quite tedious game and both sides for the first time really this world cup looked scared which of course is understandable because now that they're out of the groups the stakes have risen quite a lot. so they defended they try to avoid taking risks which you know to denmark we've seen them doing that before the croatia it's a bit of a new tactic it's understandable but it's also a tactic which has been perfected at this tournament by russia who they're going to play now in the quarterfinals so. they're going to need to keep trying hard if they
2:10 pm
get through that one by time so what can we look forward to today or today in a couple of hours in fact we've got brazil against mexico which is a very exciting clash brazil are of course one of the few remaining favorites at this tournament we've seen big teams go out spain have gone argentina germany portugal so the chance for brazil to take it all the way to the final is a very big one mexico however of course a team that they could trip up against mexico beat germany in that first game in the group stage of course that was an underperforming german side. but brazil you know all right to believe that this could be a very dangerous clash i think we're going to take a look and say a little bit how their preparations have been going for brazil holds its breath. there's no doubt that mexico will be a handful but for stars like neymar this is the opportunity of a lifetime with some of the biggest favorites out already the road to moscow could not be clearer still the players are taking it one game at
2:11 pm
a time. and you want us out of what we need to stay concentrated and determined every detail has been examined by the coach we have a plan a and a plan b. for this match so we hope to do well and go through. mexico do have talent by labor couzens teacher rito has the potential to be a particular problem for brazil which are you close up and yes i know that you thereto a bit better now that we faced him a few times i know he's quality and will stay aware of his attacks on not only him . might not so much point in brazil then are cautious not to underestimate mexico and mexico in turn are in no illusions about the quality that brazil will bring uprising against us we're not going to want me out but in fact i think this is a great opportunity for mexican saw. them to face the best team in the world in the last sixteen i think it will be a great match if we play with all of our potential partner forward there's certainly enough talent in the squads but this world cup has already shown that
2:12 pm
talented teams can get caught out there could be further upsets in store today. stuff that is of course this afternoon then this evening we've got belgium against japan belgium have won all of their games so far japan looks quite impressive in the group stage yet another fantastic fixtures all right tom joyner i fronted up the sports keeping us up to date on all the world cup action thank you tom. you're watching news still to come voters in mexico choose a man who says he'll be a president for the for a look at how mexico's incoming leftist leader plans to follow through on his promises to wipe out corruption and poverty. in a race against time rescuers carry on their desperate search for twelve boys trapped in a cave in time even after nine days there's hope the group could still be alive.
2:13 pm
but first a major merger finally moves forward helen has more on that for us to me we're talking about a deal two years eight in the making german industrial giant to some cope in india's tata steel all set to merge the european steel making operations the tie up still needs regulator a approval but it's conceived to take on a flood of cheap chinese steel unbalancing markets the joint venture comes in response to the problem of overcapacity on the global steel market as the new firm which will be known as to some crop tata steel will become europe's second largest steelmaker. compared to the if this is really the key issue to move successfully for the global excess capacity had also cost tremendous additional imports into europe imports into your about an all time high level which if your vision of the increased the price pressure on that material. to tie up is expected to result
2:14 pm
in about four thousand job cuts and savings of hundreds of millions of euros each year the marriage firm will employ some forty eight thousand workers in countries including germany the netherlands and the u.k. and it's expected to generate an annual revenue of around fifteen billion euro as. you just saw ahead of a he's ing at the c.e.o. or to sit in that report and we can speak to him now he joins us from brussels welcome to the program let me first ask you why this move now. i think it's about now you probably will come back to the pond did took us roughly two years to go forward what is the root cause here we have a structure over capacity for steel in europe and as a consequence out of that the utilization rates for all the steel companies were not high enough to really change rate attractive returns going forward and for our employees they were forced into restructuring programs each and every three to four
2:15 pm
years so we finally want to address that issue so we had four elements in mind one is the. i think we have a global excess capacity but one is clear we cannot solve the issue of china with the european merger but we can also not only let's say put the finger on china if we are not ready to do our homework so the civi is really addressing the structural overcapacity problem in europe the chinese problem need to be solved in china as you point out there are manifold problems facing the european steel market at the moment one of them is the terrorists the united states slapped on european steel how is this affecting your business. i think we have to distinct between the direct impact and the in direct the direct is the volume which we are delivering into us luckily in our case it's only three to four
2:16 pm
percent of our sales so we don't like it we can manage it i think be it but also the other european steel companies are more concerned about the indirect risk if all the volume which is not anymore allowed to go into u.s. might be redirected into the european market we have already an all time high of imports into europe if this while you are good come in addition then hopefully the european commission would find appropriate measures to protect our industry here so they in direct risk is higher for us than the direct one what all those measures what would you like to see happen. i think i cannot speak for the great commission but naturally if a country is closing the borders i think the need to also be appropriate measures to ensure that we have a level playing field we are not shy of competition but competition need to be done
2:17 pm
as i said on equal terms briefly very briefly you understand around four thousand jobs is set to go in the prices that this merger what will happen to those employees. first of all i think we have given our long term commitment to a more than forty thousand employees commitment for eighty years i think this is a unique in our industry but on the other hand we are one is saying in order to achieve the four to five hundred million soon a cheese on either side up to do sells and shops probably will go away but both companies in the past have always done it in a socially responsible way so we committed for example in sherman e that will not have forced layoffs right hind of a ceasing as c.e.o. of to some cut thanks very much for coming on the program. asian investors the south of the week tentatively as they prepare for the u.s. to impose hefty tariffs on a range of chinese imports and levies and billions of dollars worth of goods are
2:18 pm
due to come into force at the end of this week a follow on the heels of data published over the weekend showing the chinese manufacturing activity slowed in june as the world's number two economy shows signs of a slump. actually mean now in a big political shift in mexico thank you helena well leftist presidential candidate on this monday lopez over the what has one sunday's election by a wide margin official projections put him on track to win more than fifty three percent of the vote no but one of the lord made fighting corruption essential campaign pledge and has vowed to enact policies to help the poor the former mayor of mexico city was the runner up in two previous presidential elections in two thousand and six and two thousand and twelve he has also been a sharp critic of u.s. president donald trump but in his victory speech lopez obrador held out and all of branch to trump here's what he had to say. on us. we will pursue
2:19 pm
a relationship or friendship and cooperation with the united states. always rooted in mutual respect and in the defense of our fellow mexicans who live and work on the road believe in that country. we have going to my hold with us he's the deputy director of the german institute for international and security affairs here berlin and a latin american politics expert going to thank you for joining us the exit polls here are pretty clear this is the most left leaning government that mexico is elected since the one nine hundred thirty s. what is this going to mean for the country you're not so sure about it because of his approach to many different faces in his long career political career he has been a populist he has been said states and tricky have been market oriented he has made an appeal to the masses he has a social policy approach so we are not sure how will this develop in coherent government plan what has he said in the lead up to this election that he
2:20 pm
wants to change the country he has announced a profound transformation of the country he wants to combat corruption he wants to get rid of the cards and give more security conditions of living to the people and he wants to develop social policy which gives the poor people more voice in the country so those are big promises how realistic is it going to be for him to implement those changes it depends on the funds it depends on the budget and we have seen that mexico has huge difficulties in the in comics situation the premier to government has made a lot of depth due to the changes in the us market and we on the tour what will happen to nafta which is main force of international connections that mexico has developed in the last decades speaking of nafta we saw the u.s. president after all of us over there is victory congratulate him on twitter how do you think the relationship between these two countries might change under his
2:21 pm
leadership it's quite difficult situation i see the two presidents have the same concept that foreign policy is to be defined in terms of internal and electoral interests so we might have. being in the situation of chucky and consideration from the two parts of you will hope that the a parade to sims of diplomats in the those with those two parts will be able to construct a situation of confidence and not only of. disrespect what about for latin america how could having such a left wing leader in the government in mexico affect the region the whole people has been in decline in the last elections we saw in latin america so mexico is coming late to the tide of leftist government but on the other hand we see that it might be some sort of equilibration of left and right wing parties
2:22 pm
and governments and so it may in the end of the day be a push to a more integrated latin america and to wrap it up looking at mexico itself what do you think the message is the mexican voter sent with this vote yesterday we want to change we want a transformation they don't chew over this throws the regime will go too but they won't continue in the conditions that have developed over the less tickets mexican voters wanting a change going to my hold the deputy director of the german institute for international security fairs in berlin thank you so much thank you not to some other stories making headlines around the world the united nations says the number of people displaced by fighting in southwestern syria has climbed to two hundred seventy thousand that's after government forces stepped up an offensive against the rebel stronghold of the rock two weeks ago regime troops have been gaining ground there with their ally russian negotiating rebel withdrawals from contested villages . residents are evacuating northern california after
