used so much for your company everyone reports now are saying that investigators are checking whether items found during a search of a saudi consulate vehicle belonged to a journalist jamal show he who was killed inside the istanbul comp out crown prince mohammed bin solomon had not appeared in public since the killing but he resurfaced today albeit briefly at a major investment conference which has been boycotted by several international companies and protest is that the saudi government has admitted it is facing a quote craziness over the controversy and earlier king solomon and prince mohammad received his son and brother in riyadh where the two royals express their condolences media reports say hershel his son has been banned from leaving saudi arabia well before that turkey's present wretch of tayyip erdogan won has reiterated claims that the murder of journalist from
8:03 pm
a show he was planned days in advance alleging saudi officials were involved too and said he had faith in the teaching of saudi arabia he called for an independent commission into hostile his murder listen to what president at once said earlier today. it is clear of course that there was a murder and it was clear from the beginning so why was there a flurry of incoherent statements. and now that there is official acknowledgement where's the body. why do we still not have the body or. if the information is that the body was given to a local coconspirator and this is information from an authority by the way which who is this local coconspirator. really. present at on there speaking earlier today indeed it was correspond to you leon also a listen in to his speech a person everyone spoke to
8:04 pm
a world audience today he promised to reveal the naked truth on what happened to. did he deliver on that promise. well his statements a definitely are the most detailed accusations made in public by ancora so far out on cold the killing of mr g. and i quote him there a gruesome premeditated murder at the saudi consulate here in istanbul he said a team of fifteen people had begun to arriving in is some bull a day before mr disappeared sri scouted locations in and near istanbul a forest and another town locations where turkish police turks investigators later began searching for midst of a shell g.'s a body and president out on cold on saudi arabia to extradite suspects to turkey so they can be trialed here now all of this and this is the important part here now all of this directly contradicts the saudi narrative it trashes the saudi narrative
8:05 pm
that the writer jamal khashoggi was killed in a brawl but of course since missed out on promise to reveal what he called the naked truth about what happened many here were quite disappointed in his speech no word on an old your recording of jamal killing that purportedly exists no word on the alleged dismemberment of his body no further lead on where his body might be and president add on also stopped short of directly accusing riyadh specifically crown prince mohammed of being some on ordering the death of this saudi dissident journalist so you'll hear what next. well the investigation is continuing of course because the most important question maybe is still an oncet where is jim. body now there have been reports during the day that
8:06 pm
a body pods have been found at the saudi consuls residence here in istanbul some reports suggest in a bell but we were not able to confirm these reports we were reaching out to one of the prosecutors he said he can't confirm such reports but turkish media on now reporting that two suitcases have been found in that a diplomatic car belonging to the saudi consulate and these suitcases have personal belongings of mystified in them we reported yesterday that investigators found an abandoned car in a parking lot in the suit on gaza district here in istanbul fifteen kilometers away of the saudi consulate so this is the latest and we can expect more details of this investigation to emerge are you leon reporting from istanbul thank you art like to get you caught up now with some of the other stories making news around the world. the united nations human rights committee has ordered france to review legislation banning going to cop the full body islamic veil it follows complaints
8:07 pm
by two french women who were convicted back in twenty twelve the committee found that the law disproportionately harmed their right to practice their religion. hundreds of police officers in northern france have cleared nearly two thousand migrants from a makeshift camp near the another northern city of dunkirk is the six such operation in recent months and authorities the latest bid to deter people traffickers seeking to smuggle migrants across the channel to britain. police in new york say a suspected explosive device was found outside a residence of the billionaire philanthropist george soros he is one of the world's biggest donors to liberal groups and has become a hate figure of sorts for right wing campaigners both in the u.s. and in eastern europe. officials in taiwan say excessive speed was the main cause
8:08 pm
of a train derailment that left eighteen people dead and investigation found the train entered a curve at one hundred forty kilometers an hour that's almost twice the speed limit for that particular section. it washington with us we still have a lot more to tell you about including u.s. national security adviser john bolton meets with russian president vladimir putin in moscow i'll tell you what came out of their talks of it fears of a new arms race. but first stephen is here i'm going to hand you over to him because you have the latest on the italian budget saga that's right lou and the showdown has begun the european commission has formally rejected italy's twenty nine thousand budget for breaching e.u. budget rules now it's the first time the european commission has taken such a drastic step having avoided sanctioning both france and germany in the past when they breached the rules this is in means that under the excess deficit procedure rome will be given another three weeks to reconsider and revise its spending plans
8:09 pm
at over two trillion euros italy's national debt is the highest in the e.u. . now that's one hundred thirty percent of gross domestic product and there are fears any increase could unleash another euro crisis for its part at least says it's willing to talk but it says the economy needs a boost so it's sticking to its plan to triple public spending next year rome insists its budget means debt will begin falling by two thousand and twenty one. italy's leaders may be somewhat surprised that the hard line but now prime minister and his two deputies have three weeks to reconsider their budget plans for next year it's a decisive moment for one of europe's largest economies and the populist government's next moves could resonate globally italy has also become a polarized country and not everyone backs the government. but italy is part of europe so it has to follow certain rules rules that have saved us up till now. i
8:10 pm
think we need to carry on like that they're right. it's clear that the government are going to take this situation forward we need to be sure we're strong enough to keep up this stance this is. required to have a budget approved is clearly quite tough but to be held to task over your choices when you are a member of a union of countries it's understandable simple principal. deputy prime minister mathias salvini doesn't think so during a visit to romania he said there's no going back on the budget ramping up the rhetoric he accused the e.u. of attacking not a government but an entire nation. now we asked our correspondent brussels max hoffman what happens next and how defiant the italians really could be. it's hard to predict with this government we've never had a populist government of this nature in a big country in the euro zone so predictions like i said are very hard and what's
8:11 pm
coming out of rome or in this case out of bucharest from the head of the right wing populist league on nort isn't very encouraging he made it very clear they're not going to change a thing of course he's not the finance minister and then you have a thing called the spread now the spread bear with me a little complicated is the difference between what italy has to pay for its debt and what germany has to pay for its debt obviously german debt can be acquired much cheaper or the germans have to pay less to to borrow money and you have to pay much more because there is a greater risk involved so the higher the spread the more the italians have to pay and it's no surprise that with this new government the spread has gone up continuously and experts expect this to continue now even more that they have rejected what the e.u. commission is proposing and so it's something that the rising spread the rising cost for italy to refinance its debt might make them think twice in the next weeks
8:12 pm
. max hoffman there for us in brussels. the curtains officially opened today on a saudi investor conference despite the turmoil surrounding the killing of dissident journalist. riyadh has sought to convey a message of business as usual as you've already heard the saudi crown prince made an appearance but the reality on the ground is a bit different. kid in. russian investment trying an idea. the old and i just had launched a charm offensive to ensure the conference met. with a high profile roll call of business names to to attend but the reality on the ground as the conference opens is a sobering mon dieu. among those giving the event a miss on the u.s. treasury secretary the head of the i.m.f. and the c.e.o. of industrial conglomerate siemens joke asia he cancelled only at the last minute
8:13 pm
prompting further criticism back home in germany. saying the business of business is doing business business has. a responsibility is this leaders also moral leaders in our well. ford j.p. morgan and likewise dropped out of the event. the organizers have refused to reveal just how many guests will be absent and have taken down a list of plans speakers posted earlier on line. the three day meeting dubbed davos in the desert is still expected to see the signing of major billion dollar deals. saudi arabia wants to become less dependent on oil revenues by diversifying its economy needs launched an investment for a range of new infrastructure projects the promise of job creation is another factor one in three people under thirty in the kingdom are currently unemployed
8:14 pm
investors had seen the young crown prince mohammed bin salman as a positive influence for the future after he lifted the ban on cinema and permitted women to drive cars. but after the international outcry over the death of dissident journalist jamal khashoggi in the saudi consulate in istanbul many companies are putting distance between themselves and the regime. we asked dubai based financial analysts be if companies pulling out of the conference should fear up or cautions. and of course we do not expect the government to hold grudges against the corporates but also showing showing some faith in the saudi government and its and its judgment would be a positive thing for certain companies to do it's understandable that companies such as siemens itself has been under large scrutiny before before the before the reluctant. exit on the behalf of the c.e.o. from the investment summit however in the long term these deals are quite large and they serve a bigger purpose and it's the vision of twenty thirty and i think this is
8:15 pm
a long term goal that saudis not willing to give up despite the current mishaps that are taking place right now definitely certain companies who have decided on not going to the or attending the investment summit will be punished in a certain way not quite sure how but an example would be instead of giving a thirty billion dollar deal to a certain company it could be outsourced to several smaller companies and that way you would lose that the deal size and it was the sum cost of the now china says it wants to build bridges and in this case it has literally this fifty five kilometer bridge connects china macao and hong kong and it's the longest of its kind in the world china says the bridge is more than a prestige project but others dispute its usefulness. the mega structure crossing the pearl river delta links mainland china to an economic zone that is already one of the most dynamic in the world. it will cut the commute to and from
8:16 pm
hong kong from four hours to one. i declare the hong kong mark how bridge open. chinese president xi jinping officially opening a bridge two years behind schedule the structure includes a seven kilometer long underwater tunnel and was built to withstand earthquakes typhoons and collisions with ships but the project is not without its critics especially in hong kong some point to the project going fifteen billion euros over budget while the territory has a deficit of affordable housing for others it symbolizes beijing's ambitions to further integrate hong kong into china and erode the city's autonomy and freedoms if not exactly necessary because hong kong is connected to mainland china in every way already by and by by sea the pearl river delta economic zone comprises eleven cities which now have hopes of a tourism boom similar to that enjoyed by casino hope mark how the mega bridge
8:17 pm
opens to traffic on wednesday complete with possible controls the number of vehicles using it well initially be restricted leaving many locals having to take a bus to cross it. that's it for us dr lou with news thank you summer see and catch up with you later on u.s. president donald trump's national security advisor john bolton has hailed talks with russia's president vladimir putin and other russian officials as productive. and president putin discussed the prospect of the russian president meeting donald trump on the sidelines of an event in paris on november eleventh bolton's two day visit to moscow follows trump's announcement that washington is ready to pull out of a thirty year old nuclear missile treaty. and use it only sharon has been following this story for us emily it does this mean that bolton has taken some of the heat out of the discussions.
8:18 pm
well i would say that after all this buildup to the meetings today with russia kind of warning of the danger of the u.s. pulling out of the i.n.f. treaty the mood of today's meetings was actually rather positive. on both sides putin did mention when he met bolton ahead of their meeting rather in the opening statements he did mention on friendly steps the continuing on friendly steps from the u.s. towards russia but he also seemed in a great mood he was joking around and after the meeting both sides gave a positive assessment bolton called the meetings productive and comprehensive putin's aide you would. call them businesslike thorough and interesting and he also said that there would be more dialogue coming up including a meeting between trump and putin in november and perhaps that's because actually behind closed doors as experts say there wasn't actually that much of
8:19 pm
a difference on the positions when it comes to the i and after eighty putin after all has spoken as early as spoke as early as two thousand and seven about the fact that the i.n.f. treaty is isn't beneficial to russia and that russia would like to leave if it isn't widened to countries like china so actually putin has been saying the same thing that trump said on the way to the weekend for years now so perhaps not as much not as many differences behind closed doors as it seemed in the build up to this meeting very very remarkable there of what you're saying. give us the state of play because this kind of confusing for all of us out here i mean are the u.s. now pulling out of this intermediate range nuclear forces or treaty or are they not . it seems like they are and bolton at his press conference after the meetings today said that they haven't given formal notice of a withdrawal yet but they will do that as he said in due course and he also
8:20 pm
criticized the the agreement again and he said it can't be a cornerstone of global security if only the u.s. is that hearing and that even a modified version that has been tried several times to kind of widen the agreement to include other countries implied of course here china as well but extending it hasn't worked in the past and he didn't seem to think that it could work so it seems like this may be the end of the treaty. and reporting from moscow thank you president donald trump has lashed out at migrants from central america and new shoes hoping to reach the u.s. saying the approaching caravan is proof that the u.s. needs to build a border wall thousands of migrants many of them from honduras are continuing their march through mexico in spite of trans threats to call out the military and the treacherous conditions along their path. they push north

8:35 pm
think the radical self is poster this country well according to official figures about eight hundred people that the authorities have reason to believe are dangerous enough to commit acts of terrorism so so that's a sizeable number and it needs a lot of resources to surveil them and to to look after them and the more imminent threat or another imminent threat is that we are facing return needs from the islamic state people who some of them who have been disillusioned eyes but some of them are better hardened and stick evermore to. islamic islamised ology and about one thousand people left to join the islamic state about three hundred dead three hundred three turned already and we're looking at another couple of hundred people coming back and we need to deal with them just very briefly i just

8:37 pm
still don't always see eye eye to. the german government did what it could to make the visit a success giving polish president. the warmest welcome protocol had to offer but the shadow over the visit wasn't caused by bad weather alone amongst the clouds looming over german polish relations it's a contentious gas pipeline mentioned by doing this very very much north into is a pipeline that will carry gas from russia to the need bypassing poland but feel sidelined absolutely. absolutely against this investment and are irritated that european institutions like the e.u. commission haven't taken a clear stand against that it's. got to. start my own chose not to react both that strategy hardly appear to warm up the atmosphere. criticize the e.u. and germany for bullying smaller countries during
8:38 pm
a public debate at the foreign office the polish president complained that poland disconsolately overruled by the european union and voiced understanding for those who supported it wrecks it. but if everything is good in the e.u. or place why did the british decide to leave but if they didn't they vote against the european ships that you've got when you were up a ski. i believe you e.u. institutions are trying to gain too much power. for your competence here i am saying this is a former member of the european parliament a scapegoat. to germany yes that sounded like a threat and german president was clear in his response it doesn't explode we must not act as if the european union were used up in power that's looking to exercise dominion over us without our consent against wales.
8:39 pm
later the polish guest was welcomed by german chancellor merkel. traveled to poland and hopeful for solving the tensions on such obvious display today. all right now here in berlin a group of teachers is fighting back against an online platform supposedly and stopping political indoctrination in classrooms all juries far right party in berlin launched a two on their website this week atlas students report their teachers for violent violating guidelines on political neutrality in classrooms and for that about your from social media has more on this story. the teachers are not taking it lying down they're taking aim at this platform talk to us about that absolutely and they've decided some of them here in berlin have decided to use this tool to voluntarily report themselves as
8:40 pm
a sign of protest and that's quite easy in the sense that the platform is available to anyone it's accessible by going to the website of berlin if the chapter there's a section they're dedicated to neutrality in schools and it leads to this form where you can report teachers for alleged political indoctrination there are fields for your name contact information and details about what happened in your school but yes several teachers here in berlin say this tool is the wrong approach and they reported themselves and this is a why they say they've done it because they for them it's important to be placed on that list they say we will keep allowing pupils to form an impression of the character of your party we will be informing them when the activities of your party members are racist inhumane sexist and to semitic antidemocratic or involve historical revisionism and in this framework it's important to note that that.
8:41 pm
leading members of the of the far right they have d. party have come under fire repeatedly for comments that appeared for example to play down the whole cost particularly their aleksandar god and once said described nazi period as a speck of bird who in over one thousand years of successful german history and so teacher is these teachers are claiming their rights to confront and to correct such remarks in front of the pupils exactly because they feel it's in their rights to inform students about the d r they go i mean they're definitely allowed to discuss the political situation in germany they can discuss parties specifically when the a if he says that they are breaking the political neutrality they refer to a set of guidelines that were agreed upon for teachers in the one nine hundred seventy s. they are called the. consensus guidelines and they. focus on how
8:42 pm
teachers should prevent political topics should present political topics in the classroom and one of those guidelines for example says that they should present controversial topics as such they should present multiple opinions and viewpoints one important aspect here is that this is not a legal framework it's more like a a code of conduct a court of conduct this has sparked such debate here in germany what's been the overall or reaction what we're seeing we've seen for example local and national politicians criticizing this platform saying it creates the wrong atmosphere in schools some are also questioning whether it's it's legal for a party to set up such a register of people who are against its views. not showing signs of
8:43 pm
backing down on this though and they have now rolled out the platform in three states including berlin and they want to do so they plan to do so also in other parts of germany for the new social media thank you so much. and we are going to turn our attention now to the horn of africa where eritrea and ethiopia signed a peace deal a historic peace deal i should say in recent months after years of conflict many hope peace will offer the former enemies the chance to rebuild a trail remains one of africa's most oppressive regimes without a free press or a political opposition and our correspondent a group krishi got a rare look around and asked people about their hopes for the future. eritrean capital asmara. a city of tidy streets and welcoming cafes dotted with impressive architecture. there are mistake about signs of the country's economic
8:44 pm
woes and yet ever since the peace deal with neighboring ethiopia and as mara hope is in the air. this piece will bring specialty areas. to concentrate on that there are issues like. developments in able to the sector of. destruction in its view i mean those peace comes. getting better. it is my education not on me. so i'm very upset of domestic you know. it was the. mood to be improving. the war took a heavy toll here in two years of conflict from nine hundred ninety eight almost a hundred thousand people were killed to this day eritrea has compulsory national
8:45 pm
service a mix of military training and development work with no time limit human rights watch says that's one reason why twelve percent of the population has fled the country which is one of the poorest in the world. a peace agreement brings a completely new situation for the government of every trail up until now the entire policy of the country country has never held elections has no constitution no official budget and zero press for you know will peace bring reform the information minister is cautious it's very difficult to talk. create images at this stage you can only see that ok this is it's a new situation and was. the war would have to be a device that could give the government something it's a position for the traditional old. school to miss world two and this is crucial
8:46 pm
