5:04 pm
a city near is stamboul and these are locations where police later began searching for mr the shell g.'s body now what is important is that all of this directly contradicts even trashes the saudi narrative let's remember rehat said mr bush was killed in a role but of course considering that president out on promise to reveal what he called the naked truth about midst of a shell g.'s death a many critical observers here were quite disappointed in his speech no surprising a new evidence revealed no word for example about an ordeal recording of mr death that purportedly exists no word on the alleged dismemberment of his body so in the end open questions many open questions remain right so that's what i was actually going to ask you are still a lot of an answer to questions what president one didn't hold back he said at the

what some call the nuclear option in rejecting. a budget but not only a budget but the draft of a budget so at a very early stage preventively you could call it and that is something they haven't done before in the past they usually said to the country like france or germany listen this is not going to work so they started negotiating but there was goodwill on both sides to make it worse and that's why it never felt compelled to trigger that excess this excess deficit procedure that's the big difference and that's why someone would only say this is a declaration of war all right now italy hasn't been budging from its position it's very defiant have we heard from rome. was very quick so the interior minister also the head of the league on north the right wing populist party in responding and he said there's no going back we're not going to change one thing so this doesn't look like he's ready to negotiate over the next three weeks of course this is not necessarily his responsibility being the minister
