because if they don't leave us live from the clock is ticking but the e.u. says more time is needed before it the about britain's departure from the ball is in place european union leaders meet in brussels for another go at getting a deal on since it would be irish border problem all efforts to solve this also on the program a massacre in crimea reports say teenager shot and killed at least nineteen of his fellow college students injured dozens more and then turned the gun on himself we'll bring you the latest. turkish police add to the home of the saudi consul
9:01 pm
widens its investigation into the disappearance of this isn't saudi journalist jamal khashoggi. welcome to the program the european union leaders are meeting in brussels as they try to break the deadlock over a deal for britain to withdraw from the a here shortly for the to the summit of german chancellor i'm going to machall said she was optimistic that a deal could be done britain's prime minister theresa may told reporters that most of the issues have been resolved although differences remain over what's become known as the northern ireland backstop. both sides. physical a border between northern ireland which is part of britain and the republic of ireland. so what we've seen is that we've socialized to be issues in withdrawal
9:02 pm
agreements there are still very strong the question of the northern irish faxed off but i believe everybody around the table wants to get a deal. by working intensively and closely we can achieve that deal i believe a deal physics will now is the time to make it happen. to brussels where we find the interview comes from imax with welcome knocks i'm struggling to keep up that series i may say she's optimistic about a dale but the european leaders are increasingly talking about preparing for a no deal britain crashing out of the club. it's not really a contradiction phil because anything is possible at this point we really don't know how this is going to end even if the e.u. and the u.k. in this case theresa may find a deal this might be voted down by the british parliament and on the other hand i think it's also a means of increasing pressure on the u.k. saying that everybody else is prepared for a no the scenario while leaving the door open for further negotiations sound
9:03 pm
familiar that's because this is a negotiating strategy that's been widely used for example also with with russia over ukraine so this is not new this is actually a fairly common strategy to negotiate i mean while german chancellor angela merkel must be glad to say european leader with bigger problems than what is she being saying today. i don't think she functions that way she seemed to be very poised very calm as is her demeanor she didn't say much she just said she was hoping she had hoped actually that a deal would have been ready for the summit right here but we're only ninety percent there that's what she said so still a lot of work to be done and you know that's the line that most leaders actually all e.u. leaders i've been hearing have followed they say we're not there yet we still need more time also the chief you negotiator said the same thing but on the same time at the same time being optimistic saying
9:04 pm
a deal is absolutely still possible ok i'm old time and that there has been told of extending the transition period after britain believes how much of a concession is that. well it's not really that much of a concession to tell the truth because the. if you really want to negotiate something like a free trade agreement then you probably need even more time than three years at least in the past the you need much more time to negotiate it's free trade agreements for example seated with canada on the other hand it gives them the possibility to show that they are willing to compromise in some respects to give to resubmit something but for this right here it seems like it's something that's arisen may really doesn't want because as you know in the u.k. there are some breaks to tears that can't get out of the e.u. fast enough so another year for the transition period won't go down well with that and briefly. each of these you summits gets described as crunch talks is a set of crunch of them the rest of them. it's
9:05 pm
a process we're moving towards the crunch is part that's for sure at some point the reason may well have to go back home and say listen this is what i negotiated take it or leave it until then each summit gets. ever crunch here. in brussels back here. has also been speaking we fashion a new parliament brock and i asked him if any dale had some say you could also see the british parliament. let's see i think it's very difficult to compare parliament here kate parliament because we do not see any see any coherence that both parties are totally be divided and see here there is a man as one day to take the risk to put something to vote which has also our agreement but otherwise they will have problems in european parliament european parliament and there's all this story the final word if you say no then it's a no even if all said so stays in government villegas you've been around the block in brussels so how is this going to play out what's your best bet. look the drama
9:06 pm
of. no deal is especially for the united kingdom. also damage for us but especially for the united kingdom is so dramatic that i think at the end of a day a motion should not be in that question and then have a position where we all it can live was but under the conditions that our two principles irish border and the in total market unity is secured and that's going to happen yes or no i hope that in the course of the next week huge will happen probably not to. thank you very much mr. at least nineteen people have been killed and dozens injured in a shooting in russia annexed crimea the attack took place at a college in the black sea port of cash russian authorities say an eighteen year old student shot his fellow students and then killed himself. and the drama unfolded at around noon with what sounded like an explosion

9:12 pm
a common complaint made by the turkish president as well but they say they have found evidence of possibly indicates that he was murdered but at the moment there are no public statements by relying on anonymous sources and one of the most strongest sources is they say they have all via recordings and even video recordings of the last minutes of the saudi journalist as of yet none of this has been presented into the public domain what's been heard of the console himself after he left in such a hurry on tuesday. well indeed he has become the focus of this investigation and there have been unconfirmed reports that he's possibly even being removed from his position in saudi arabia he's very much a center of interest because of these so-called recordings indicate that he was present at the time of talk show beatings and ultimately killing and that's why the turkish inquest he is a very keen to focus on him and there are growing calls for diplomatic immunity beaten to be lifted of all those are linked to this disappearance of the saudi
