8:02 pm
more responsibility for its defense and security and its content to play a secondary role on the world stage. to me and with me in the studio now is to belmont he's a journalist from lizzy call paris to both things that for being with us so we heard micron there talking about greater european integration but at the same time we heard him speak quite a bit about sovereignty how do you reconcile these two somewhat different priorities well i think for michael the both go hand in hand what he promises to the french that is and is to protect them and also to european citizens to protect them and sort of europeans over and the economy can political is very real the only way to achieve that is being stronger together and more and what good is goes through more integration if you take the euro from splits his conviction is.
8:03 pm
the euro won't be strong against the dollar that's called currency sovereignty if we don't how you was in the budget for instance a strong currency not goes hand in hand for him but these are of course difficult times we have the u.k. poised to leave the european union there's quite a lot of euro skepticism elsewhere in europe how does mcallen think that a greater integration can be achieved i think that's precisely the point. michael but also america i think see those threats like the brics it or maybe direction of the donald trump has one more argument to integrate the european union more than before of course you have this. forces against integration we have the one i see a lot of us in the us not in france the i.v. in germany and it makes it more difficult to achieve more integration but at the
8:04 pm
same time these threats make it's more i think understandable for the other part of the population to to to make a stronger i felt to join. forces together and now you're talking about these external threats but we have to mention internally macron and merkel also are facing quite a lot of pressure and do they have the necessary authority to get these e.u. reforms to happen briefly if you can. well we obviously we've just seen this week and has been quite difficult for michael he's popularity is very low we have to these demonstrations yesterday against the government types so he's a thirty two easy challenge and also medical authority used is challenge but. i don't think they have any choice really. journalists from lizzie cole paris many thanks indeed for your insights. now british prime minister to resign mays says the next seven days in the brakes of process will be critical for britain
8:05 pm

8:06 pm
result is that many are not sure whether leaving the you is the right thing to do after all i was in favor of leaving and when i vote it's a leave i knew that there would be struggles all of the mess that is going on is has brought me to a point where i almost regret the decision to leave twenty four year old mitchell in the technology industry he had trusted british politicians to deliver on that promise to secure a good brakes a deal now he has doubts about whether that is possible to see how much of a mess everything's up to come into there's no structural no one knows where it's going to go there's lots of uncertainty but the moment i feel that we should probably we should stay not far away suit connelly of the local conservative party is just as unhappy with the draft breaks a deal as mitchell but for her the answer cannot be to. stay in the i think that with green men is rubbish basically it's not what we want it's not what we foti
8:07 pm
for we didn't vote for a load of idiots up in westminster. the whole. total mess of the and the so we won't we will we want to now. to connally's things the young people from are wrong and doubting belief out but back in this new club mitchell oma believes that britons perhaps shouldn't have been asked to vote on the issue in the first place i want to kind of the decision like this with something as complex as europe has been put in my hands because being honest i don't understand. the prime minister understands it so how are we making the decisions. this is a thing everyone has an opinion but no one knows what should happen now with all of the unfolding uncertainty and chaos from pretty young people i'm not sure that the bracks a game can be won any more. than joining us now from westminster is d.w. correspondent barbara vessel so barbara i think it's safe to say that he has had
8:08 pm
a rather difficult week she says so herself in a t.v. interview today and she also of course continued to defend her breaks the deal how does she come across. are she comes across as the woman who is signed it didn't determine to free to call this last week for her a rather difficult week of course is the understatement of the day it's been me it's been completed dr king used to do you get invited to reason me to get this interview that she would not step away that she would push this deal through and she demanded from her. group so far enemies to fall over unless and there was a stretch implied. let's hear what the prime minister has to say. you know change of leadership at this point isn't going to make the negotiations uneasy and it's
8:09 pm
not going to change the parliamentary arithmetic what it will do what it will do is bring in a degree of uncertainty that's uncertainty for people and what it will do is mean that is a risk that actually we delay the against your actions and that's a risk that wrecks it gets to lend or frustration. what she telling us there it's quite obvious because she's telling our enemies and the whole gaggle off for opponents within her own party and of course on the opposition benches if you shoot me down things will get worse because then we might end up was no breaks at everybody and bridges seems to begin to understand what that means or you will get no breaks at all and then of course is directed at her enemies with in the tory party telling them if you still want to break that this is your own and one chance well there has been some talk of possibly renegotiating the
8:10 pm
draft deal or at least parts of it but barbara what is brussels likely to make of this. brussels of course is wringing their hands and tearing their hair for days because they watch the kaos in westminster and massive store to watch are they doing there in the in these meet negotiations have been dragging on from months and months in many late nights and now there is this cultural renegotiate however through it driesum a knows that it is not doable the bricks and deal the actual divorce agreement those five hundred eighty five pages of legal text they will not be true or not and they will not be reopened there is nothing going on there however what she can achieve and what she's trying to do at brussels in brussels is to put some more let's say a sweet language and a bit more love into these so called political declaration dealing with the future
8:11 pm
