policies plus a moral and legal battle over digital data in a landmark judgment a german court rules facebook must grant a grieving mother access to her deceased and daughter's account. and it was a thrilling and historic win for kori schake in the second semifinal of the world cup straker mario months who can't shift scored the winning goal against england in extra time in steams two one big she was followed by an endless night of celebrations. thank you very much for your company everyone one of nato's the most tumultuous summits in a long time has ended during the events u.s. president donald trump made a number of strident and highly critical remarks and. actually germany however
6:02 pm
before leaving the summit in brussels trump reaffirmed his commitment to nato and said that the allies had all agreed to increase their budget contributions he also denied reports that the us had threatened to pull out of the alliance altogether if other member states failed to follow through on their spending promises. and german chancellor angela merkel spoke at the end of the nato meeting she said she felt the alliance was still strong but the member states needed to do more for each other this morning the question was again raised what we need to do for our defense and i made it clear for germany that we know that we need to do more and we have been doing more for some time and. we started moving in that direction long ago we are doing it for our own soldiers but also of course for the alliance. we are doing this in the face of changes to the security situation we have recognized the latest
6:03 pm
with the attack on ukraine and the an extension of crimea. the chancellor speaking there at the end of the nato summit at the start of the nato summit president trump had some tough words for germany calling berlin out for being what he described as too reliant on russian gas and urged nato to look into the matter well to help us assess the state of bilateral ties between the u.s. and germany want to turn to u.s. political analyst james been in the goa sir thank you so much for joining us the two raring to mulcher his days at the nato h.q. mr trump going after germy saying it is controlled by russia did he really mean what he said or was he just playing hardball with the strategy here. i believe that he's trying to play strong hardball in order to encourage people to act and in that sense he was right and he has to have that on the other hand that bullying that kind of tough talk actually undermines his ability or modernize their leaders ability to go back to their publics and convince them that they need to do more
6:04 pm
spending and more activity for nato. how much bad blood is there how damage to our bilateral relations when you undermine the trust and the the predictability of any agreement it takes a very long time to rebuild its knowledge of question is really whether or not the president will come back and build on that relationship that he has achieved attention by all the bar parties of nato in fact as the chancellor just said after the invasion of ukraine and then accession of crimea the europeans of cells understood that there was a threat and before that they did not believe there was a threat coming and have taken action to increase their defense spending and their capabilities to support their own security. how confident would you say is terms today that the u.s. will stick with nato. i think he has introduced a very significant question about whether or not the united states would stand by
6:05 pm
its commitment under article five of the nato treaty just the fact that he has talked about this for us now two years nearly as made clear before that for thirty years since one thousand nine hundred seventy when he had an open letter in the new york times that europeans need to do more there is a very strong undercurrent of concern that the united states under his leadership would not support nato however at the same time the senate yesterday passed a resolution in favor of nato by ninety seven to two a very very strong understanding that the united states itself stands with nato and he took the point from that that he needs to understand that the united states does support nato does support article five and should he should support it and mr bennett argument in conclusion mr trump this is the first time that he's taken issue with germany what do you think his problem with. i think it stems back to
6:06 pm
the one nine hundred eighty s. when germany also had a very large trade balance and he was in the bill in business and found that they he felt from his negotiating scene that he was being the united states was being taken advantage of he hasn't changed that position for thirty more years and so i think he has a carries out on and now looks to have bilateral relations and has with the europeans only a multilateral that is the u.s. commission or the e.u. commission is the one that negotiates trade agreements and he wants to talk individually and the most the strongest partner there is germany and so he has developed an ability to attack germany because it's the strongest country in europe u.s. political analyst james the novel thank you sir for weighing in my pleasure thank you very much. now from brussels the u.s. president has traveled on to what he called hot spot britain is set coincides with what is already shaping up to be a very difficult week for prime minister to resign may she suffered
6:07 pm
a number of key resignations over her handling of britain's exit from the european union chump adding adding to the fire by weighing in on the issue donald trump and first lady arrived on air force one to start the four day visit he's expected to talk about a bilateral potential bilateral trade deal among other topics with prime minister theresa may and the police expect more than one hundred protests across the country during his facings. all right and standing by as you give your correspondent very good masa she joins us now from the capital london bridge what kind of reception is the couple getting. well i think the first research and london has been positive just where we are as the best is the u.s. ambassador's residence here in london winfield house and we've just seen people coming out of the residence it was supposed to be a town hall style meeting where he has met what i think mostly u.s.
6:08 pm
citizens in the u.k. and they have said that every proud of president trump that they're proud of what he's doing defending the western alliance described him as a chilean characters a very positive but then again as you've already said there are many protests and protesters are already gearing up here outside the u.s. ambassador's residence and wherever he goes there will be protests he's going to meet the queen tomorrow in windsor we expect protests that he's also going to hold talks with to reason may and check us know that's going to be pretty much shelter that's outside of london probably not that minute protests over there but then when he travels on to scotland in the evening also again protests a lot of british people are really very skeptical about donald trump majority think that he's actually making the world a more dangerous place two million people almost a million have tried to petition to withdraw the invitation to him so a lot of people are very very skeptical indeed but enough of that nevertheless this
6:09 pm
is a very high stakes meeting there for prime minister theresa may she's a bad old dealing with a major domestic political crisis she could use some help is he going to give her that helping hand. well indeed it's a very sensitive time for to reason main leaving the european union and in such a way losing one of the key allies and she would have hoped to revive this mythical so-called special relationship that there is the bond between the u.s. and the u.k. especially in this time when britain needs new allies and the most hope is for a new trade deal with the u.s. something that president trump has said is is very very likely but the question is how reliable of a partner is he and if you look at what happened at nate to all the to and fro i think the reason may well be very very careful you might say one thing today but he might retracted tomorrow so really a question of how close is this relationship going to be and i guess will we
6:10 pm
finding out a pretty soon or reporting from london thank you. all right let's get you caught up now with some of the other stories making news around the world. relationship staying in the u.k. the british government has published a new blueprint for the country's exit from the european union new regs that minister dominic robb told parliament the proposals to the hosel aims to keep britain in a free market for goods with a looser relationship for services to the new class prompted the former foreign secretary and rags that minister to resign earlier this week. the syrian state television says government forces have raised the national flag over parts of that us city that had previously been in rebel hands since twenty eleven there are was the scene of the original anti assad protests that sparked civil war seven years ago the move was a major victory for president bashar al assad. israel released

6:12 pm
combat people smuggling austria's interior minister herbert kick all is pushing for a hard line approach together with his german counterpart or say offer and at least what they are so again they are calling for a tighter e.u. wide migration and asylum policies but other ministers have expressed concern about the impact on human rights. and yet we use again it might to say has been following that meeting in innsbruck garrick have not have ministers made any concrete progress today. i'd say one of the most concrete things you can take away from this informal meeting so a meeting that is not meant to produce any conclusions or any written conclusions one of the most concrete things is this idea to strengthen the use external bought a force called frontex by twenty twenty two up to ten thousand police officers and now that already gives you the sort of the way this meeting has been heading it is
6:13 pm
been all about building a european fortress against migration and for ministers to get a feeling for that the austrian presidency a rotating presidency carnley it is austria running things and it's a populist the far right wing going to remain us are prepared a number of things to really give ministers who came here through the mountains of unspoken feeling you had helicopters swooping you had very strong police presence heavy guns and finally ministers were shown a film that showed all sorts of terrorist attacks that occurred throughout europe including images of refugees from the migration crisis two years ago so the mood was set at what are the biggest points of contention in trying to forge a common migration plan. at the biggest time point of contention really everybody tried to sail around because these other things when it comes to what do we do with people that are already in europe and claim asylum
6:14 pm
all that will come in the future with the rights to claim asylum and that is the real problem when it comes to the relocations of the distribution who are taking these refugees we still have a relocation program that is put to be put into action and also it's unclear in the future who will take refugees there has been practically zero information and no country raising its hand and saying well we are will be happy for instance to put up one of these receptions sent us that the european council in a key session. last in the last two weeks basically agreed to that that is an idea but for instance the italian interior minister outrightly for the root this out he said no such camp on the italian soil i guess let's talk about the host country of austria where the same meeting is taking place a centurion minister made some controversial proposals talk to us about that.
6:15 pm
i say controversial as putting it it really miles terms these are really radical ideas of changing the way europe has deal and dealt with asylum he has drawn out a vision where he imagines that in the future asylum can only be claimed outside of the european union which is currently legal you can practically you can only claim asylum once you're in europe by that he wants to stop the pull factor that that brings people making the dangerous crossing over the mediterranean for instance but a number of ministers have disagreed have said this includes all kinds of legal but also practical problems so for instance the luxembourg's interior minister. said civilized people on not talking about such ideas and offer a mobile as the commissioner responsible for migration from the european commission made very clear he said he promised that the e.u. will not outsource its responsibilities when it comes to seeking asylum to have his
