u.s. calls for saudi arabia to tell the full story. and on the story for us tonight is g.w. correspondent you leon she's in istanbul and in our washington bureau is correspondent stefan z. months to both of you good evening you let me start with you turkish president to one he had promised to reveal and i'm quoting here of the naked truth on what happened to jamal khashoggi did he do that today. well no the naked truth is definitely not what we got from president ad one today although his statements are the most detailed accusations made in public by on cross so far and by saying and i quote him here it was a savage murder a premeditated political murder he clearly contradicted the official saudi narrative of
10:05 pm
a deadly fistfight or some kind of rogue operation gone wrong what missed out on did today basically was summarize the results of the investigation adding a few more details he said a fifteen a member team of saudis began arriving here in istanbul the day before mr de disappeared and that three of them had actually been scouting a forest here in istanbul and a city nearby and these are locations turkish investigators have later started searching for mr. body now mr add on also called on saudi arabia to extradite at the suspects here so they can be trialed in turkey but in the end he stopped short of that directly accusing riyadh especially crown prince mohammed bin so a month of having ordered this murder and he did also not some very crucial questions one of them being how exactly was jamal khashoggi killed what about for example or do you know recordings of his murder that purportedly exist what about
10:06 pm
some of the gruesome allegations here that he was tortured and his body dismembered no ounces to these questions no on says also to the question where his body might be right now. on the international stage the pressure is increasing on saudi arabia to come clean we had a statement from g seven countries from their foreign ministers today and we heard from the u.s. vice president today tell us about. well the g seven issued a statement asking saudi arabia for a that something like this never ever happens again be that measures will plea put in place to not let this happen again and see of course the g. seven countries and four ministers of those countries condemned what happened to. show she. and your rights on paper the precious seems to be increasing against
10:07 pm
saudi arabia and you also write that vice president pence spoke out again today against saudi arabia saying that there will be definitely consequences and the u.s. will react to whatever the findings are detailed findings on this investigation of the murder of a cursor. but again this is also being said under the paradigm of that the u.s. has vital national security interests which are in the region in the middle east and therefore also needs saudi arabia so whatever the u.s. is doing even the vice president and everybody else in it mr ation says will follow this paradigm. of course is just highlighted by the latest report we're seeing from the white hells u.s. presidential trump saying that he thinks that the turkish president was a little too hard on saudi arabia today so you'll let me turn his back to you we
10:08 pm

10:11 pm
find their reports on. dot com. one of the reporters who have been investigating the salafist scene in germany is to my right right here with me at the big table my ts fund hein my deeds what led you to carry out this investigation to begin with saying is even though it was a so-called islamic state is basically defeated militarily we still live with the spread of islam is terrorism and much of the ideology driving islam is terrorism is salafi in nature it is salafi ideology of course not every salafist as you just said is going to be a terrorist but basically every islamist terrorist in europe over the last couple of years has. a radical background as have most of the people of all who
10:12 pm
went to syria and iraq to join so-called islamic state. on a personal note i live in which happens to be the lofty hot spot and for years i have seen the leftists handing out korans in a city but then all of a sudden they sort of vanished and i was curious. to know what are they doing and what's their mindset we've got a report now on. here in germany take a look. salafism is a fundamentalist form of islam some of that support is reject modern western democratic norms the german domestic intelligence service says salafism is one of the fastest growing branches of islam in germany in twenty eleven german authorities were aware of some three thousand eight hundred salafist in the country three years later that number was seven thousand and by twenty seventeen was ten

10:15 pm
and so on and so forth but with. echo chambers extending into real life like you know not being noticed by well other well it's not you well it's not necessarily forbidden what they do and we have a constitution give us the right of religious freedom and even handing out korans of course that's not forbidden you know it's the organization behind that was. forbidden because it was unconstitutional and because they were supposed to jihadism right but. the way is a they managed to to create a world for themselves with home value systems and you know with living room mosques with shops with you know their own you know toys you logically correct even full toddlers and all of that all of them revolving around the question what is her what is her love what is forbidden what is. what is ok but she is
10:16 pm
fine thank you very much if you want to see my tears and his colleagues work on salafism here in germany you can head to d.w. dot com and there you find everything mighty of thank you very much. at. the u.s. is facing pressure over a series of arms deals following the death of killing of saudi dissident journalist the us president donald trump says the stakes are too high to cancel the agreements but the actual figures that is the amount of money and the american jobs they create are hard to pin down. intent on protecting arms deals and economic ties with saudi arabia president donald trump has so far rejected sanctions which is normally only too happy to impose. but i would prefer that we don't use as retribution
10:17 pm
cancelling one hundred ten billion dollars worth of work which means six hundred thousand jobs but as the global outrage at the kitchen killing mounts so to trump's numbers. i don't want to lose the big. i don't want to lose one hundred ten billion dollars in terms of investment but it really four hundred fifty big and if you get food other than military so many jobs is it and how much cash is trump overstating because the silence is deafening the u.s. is giving the impression it's so dependent on saudi arabia that simply can't afford to take any other. sort of help clear this up let's talk now to our financial correspondent in new york sophia. sophie a lot of numbers being thrown around here what do we actually know about these arms deals between the u.s. and saudi arabia. oh please excuse for being so blunt but there's
10:18 pm
a lot that trump the seem to know is even so the numbers just don't add up trump keeps claiming how many jobs in the defense sector would be created or lost if the u.s. would draw back from that deal with the saudis but the aerospace industry associations have read and twenty six thousand they were something like three hundred fifty five thousand manufacturing jobs supported by the and tire defense and national security industries so it is quite hard to imagine that the steel spread over a decade would double the total of jobs in this sector also nothing seems to have been finalized there appear to be only a few if any signed contracts many of these announcements are simply memorandums up and ten so that of loose talking there are the figures looking at the day trading itself the first quarterly earnings reports are coming in and the market still seem to like what they're seeing what can you tell us well this is starting to look like a smaller disaster for the market at least this is what the investors were making
10:19 pm
out of this unless they convert the dip into correction territory the dow at one point had lost five hundred points though it came back in the afternoon trading hours the earnings where we got on tuesday weren't necessarily bad but they kind of care a shadow on to the next year and the shadow is called protectionism and stronger dollar and also rising interest rates let's look at the numbers we got from the case of philip for example they are saying that due to sanctions and their production costs are going to go up next year and this has already started and this is also something that the numbers of three m. were telling or so if your financial correspondent new york thank you sophie. now the european commission has formally rejected italy's twenty one thousand budget for breaching the budget rules 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
10:20 pm
they breached the rules the decision means that under the excess deficit procedure will be given another three weeks to reconsider and revise its spending plans 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 italy says it's willing to talk but it needs the economy is the economy needs a boost so it's sticking to its plans to triple public spending next year rome insists its budget means debt will begin falling by two thousand and twenty one for . italy's leaders maybe somewhat surprised that the u.s. hardline 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
10:21 pm
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 think we need to carry on like that they're right. it's clear that the government is going to take the situation forward we need to be sure we're strong enough to keep up this stuns. thing 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 is understandable. deputy prime minister months ago 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 cues the e.u. of attacking not a government but an entire nation. that's it for business now back to brett with more news we're going to talk about politics and take it to the other side of the pond stephen it is only two weeks until mid
