12:07 pm
and also the council of europe questioned in a verdict a couple of months ago and then the second front is that he questions the european institution meddling at all in his affairs he said this is a polish problem this is a polish question of sovereignty and that the european institutions especially of course the commission should not interfere he was what he had to say exactly on the matter all right now max i do want to ask you because you just launched legal action against poland over the supreme court reporter has that changed at all yet another infringement procedure started on monday you're absolutely right they are sunni but this one is about the retirement age of supreme court judges which was lowered which would mean that some of the supreme court judges would be forced into retirement and that really hasn't changed anything the situation is slowly escalating if you wish i mean with the new prime minister that we saw here today with. the communication appears to have improved
12:08 pm

12:13 pm

12:15 pm
conditions under which that t.-e. will be allowed to resume business are strict the chinese tech giant will be able to maintain existing telecom networks and mobile phones in the usa and to carry out security patches to continue operating the company must pay a one billion dollar fine replace its executive team and hire u.s. compliance officers it was only in april that the company suspended most operations after the commerce department imposed a seven year ban from buying u.s. components in technology said t. he relies on u.s. companies for nearly one part in every four that go into its networking hardware and smartphones said t e pleaded guilty in march twenty seventh teen to having shipped equipment to iran and north korea in violation of u.s. sanctions after they were slapped with a fine the company promised to discipline employees involved in the scheme but the
12:16 pm
commerce department said this week that those employees were paid bonuses instead. well politicians can be notorious for saving disappointing news for an otherwise busy day and just as the football world cup rolled around the russian government announced a sweeping pension reform pushing up the official retirement age but world cup or no wealth cup the reform is facing some stiff opposition. it's been a long day and olga played minge of a needs a cup of tea after thirty years of working as a hospital doctor she was planning to retire next spring and just a bit on the site but now the fifty four year old feels there's little chance of that the russian government wants to gradually raise the age of retirement from sixty to sixty five for men from fifty five to sixty three for women. russia has an aging population and too few people paying into its pension pot the retirement system needs an overhaul. the government wants to modernize the country but
12:17 pm
needs to invest more in health and education as communication choices can seem a little in that doctor to announce the retirement reform at the start of the world cup hoping perhaps that the football tournament would distract people from its intentions at these two. the kremlin has otherwise kept quiet on the issue president putin appears keen to distance himself from the reform law give russia be anything but trade unions and opposition politicians believe he's the one behind it all you know they've organized demonstrations and collected millions of signatures in protest of the us more. putin of all did the pension reform as a way of stealing our money or money zelig new designs called reform is making citizens poorer we will do everything to prevent these measures from being
12:18 pm
implemented on the most which is the means that. parliament has to give its approval before the reform can go ahead and not all members are in favor independent analysts also skeptical. that a reform is speaking as an economist such reforms are only necessary when you have strong economic growth youth or not enough workers. neither of which is the key. base russia's economy is sluggish and the country has a huge workforce and few businesses actively hi older people so we'll all got plenty of other end up having to work a few more years even though. i shook my just because of you know everything my generation has seen but then was i really don't hold out much hope for good new homes. and if the reform is implemented that will hardly bolster people's trust in the russian government. will venezuela's aiding oil industry
12:19 pm
looks set to get a new cash injection from china the four point three billion euro load will help boost oil production and the orinoco belts now venezuela extracts around one point four million barrels of oil a day just half as much as it did five years ago the crisis stricken country is dogged by corruption mismanagement and stolen investments and there's little hard currency around that china is in venezuela is name foreign investor of the last ten years it's lent the south american nation a total of sixty billion dollars which venezuela is repaying in oil supplies. well back overseas now chancellor merkel has been defending her new migration policy c.v. that's right helen america was doing so in parliament where she delivered an address earlier today it comes one day after she reached a compromise with her hardline interior minister horst sable for aimed at limiting illegal immigration she again said the fate of europe would be determined by the way it dealt with the issue of migration. but other than minor to those that i am
12:20 pm
absolutely convinced as are many many others how we deal with the issue of migration will determine whether europe will survive because it is such an important question and it was important in achieving our agreement and obviously now we need to have says on says which comply with our values instead. of in. our political correspondent has been following the debate at the german bundestag for us i report so we heard the chancellor defending her migration policy and talking about the fate of the e.u. on a whole what stood out to you today well the the overall message of anglo-american today was a message a message of reassurance in the end speech was a rather typical anglo-american speech very calm very down to details and whoever didn't really notice anything about the governmental crisis be have seen in the
12:21 pm
last two weeks couldn't really get a glimpse of the crisis in that speech any more. what i did here was to send out the message i'm back i still have the grip on everything here in germany and you don't have to worry about stability here this is a message that was not only sent out to the german people but also to the international law allies also to a very lengthy about the need over european solution not only migration policy also in security policy in trade and she also talked very much about the future of nato and the future of multilateral resin in the global sphere so the message today of america was a message of reassurance and it was a message to fellow lawmakers as well were great and as expected the leading opposition party the far right a.f.d. did come down very hard on america when they got up to speak let's listen to their leader on this vital. isn't of the guns i mean you're sure that you failed completely you've achieved nothing except to make sure that with all the tricks at
12:22 pm
your disposal you've managed to keep your chance to see to bit longer even though you were chairing a coalition which has long since collapsed and after the spire and see all who parted you that she was splitting germany us spitting europe you are fracturing your wobbly coalition and ultimately your own political party so please end this drama and resign it to op so report incendiary rhetoric there from the a.f.p. but do they have a point to say uncle americal a splitting germany and splitting europe well they indeed have a point when they say leading the league coalition and they do have a point when they say that she was about to split her own party and her coalition but then on the other hand the a.v. feels itself as the big winner of the last several weeks they have the feeling that all they want has been said by
