this is the w.'s life from hungary's prime minister condemns in a new report accusing him of undermining democracy as the european parliament debates whether to strip hungary of its a new voting rights viktor all about tells lawmakers the accusations against his popular government are an insult also on the program. how to flee fighting when you've lost your home your parents and their lives d.w. goes to a refugee camp in syria's crawford's to meet a teenager with no end left to rot. and russia stages its biggest war

game since the soviet era moscow says the joint military exercises with china a purely defensive but nato uses russia preparing for war. i'm sure gail welcome to the program hungary's prime minister is of the european parliament in strasburg defending his populist government ahead of a vote to impose sanctions against it for it to accuse the european parliament of blackmailing his country brits immigration policies and describe the report detailing breaches of the rule of law as an insult there are also concerns about the independence of hungary's courts and the rise of corruption the parliament votes tomorrow if they decide in favor of sanctions hungary could lose a few voting rights. to bases been going on of the e.u.

second home in strasburg where we find detail view europe correspondent that's often welcome max how has victor all back defended his government's actions. you already touched on some of the main points there phil he wouldn't have any of it he flatly rejected what was written or what is written in that report in fact even the big guns saying that hungry fought for its democracy it fought against the soviets or at least a resisted the soviets so he went back that far in voting history saying that this was not a him this was not against his government this was against an entire country so you could tell that he wasn't ready to give any compromise at least not in this setting and that means maybe to a degree that the triggering of article seven got a little more likely because of his. speech what does that actually mean what does this imply we have a report by catherine martin explaining all that take

a look. i am the state is what this poster says many hungary and see their right british prime minister as to time the theory and many people are worried about core democratic values such as free speech or an independent judiciary many members of the e.u. parliament say the rule of law in hungary is being threatened as are those who want to defend human rights so they say the e.u. must take a tougher line for example criminalizing migration related activities dismantling the rule of law is no longer tolerated the situation in hungary has got to the point where the e.p.a. has to stand up for its for our values actually as europeans and trigger article seven article seven allows the european union to initiate a real procedure against a member state it could even lose its military rights for the first time in the us history the european commission sugared octal seven in july against poland despite

a similar case against it hungary has so far a marriage unscathed the reasons for this are mainly political according to green n.e.p. in teenie she. the legal situation in hungary on behalf of the european parliament and clear breaches of the e.u.'s fundamental values. the political party its member of the european people's party and they have friends in commission and in parliament and hungary viktor orban still has a majority behind him in the european parliament though it could look very different. needs a two thirds majority. in the chamber. well he his party the foetus party is a member of the biggest political group in the european parliament the so-called european peoples party so you'd be forgiven to think that it's most likely not

going to be a two thirds majority voting to trigger article seven but it's not that easy because here's the thing many within the itself are fed up with what the two orbán is doing don't feel represented and that's why the most likely scenario at the moment is that there won't be any given line by the e.p. p.c. bear with me here a little complicated and often what you have in the european parliament is that the faction says your members or your politicians need to vote one way for a six for example it could say all the members will have to vote against triggering article seven but it seems this is not going to happen which means that everybody can vote according to their conscience and that might put the whole thing over the top and and get the two thirds majority in favor of article seven we spoke to a couple of our sources and in fact they think that's the most likely scenario so if the vote goes against hungary what then what sanctions will congress.

it was a long process it's the meaning that in order to get to this nuclear option that you described earlier the stripping of the e.u. voting rights that most likely would take you know we're talking years here but that's not what's bothering victor orbán because he could say i don't care at the end there's going to be a veto let's say by poland so there's no danger for you but what bothers him here is that if there really is a formal article seven procedure against hungry it will make it much more likely that his party the party would be excluded from the european people's party and it's important for him to be in there because it gives him legitimacy it gives him power after all it is the biggest political group here in the european parliament and. is set to save the most important political group even after the elections of next year so he was avoid that that's why we expect him to maybe hand over or maybe

offer some compromise at a closed door meeting here this evening with his political group with the e p p to convince them not to vote for the triggering of article seven. at the parliament in strasburg thank you. let's take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world at least forty five people including several children were killed after a bus carrying pilgrims plunged into my valley in southern india witnesses say the driver lost control of the vehicle transporting passengers from a hindu temple india has one of the highest rates of traffic fatalities in the world. a petrol tanker explosion in central nigeria has left thirty five people dead and hundreds more injured it happened at a filling station as the tank was discharging petrol. united states is marking the seventeenth on a version of the september eleventh attacks in which nearly three thousand people were killed ceremonies were held at the three sites targeted by islamist terrorists
