11:05 am
the semi autonomy tribal areas near the border with afghanistan more than fifty people were injured in the bombing does not appear to be linked to the consulate attack in karachi. spain is threatening to throw the brakes a deal into jeopardy with a last minute objection over gibraltar spanish prime minister pedro sun just tweeted to this after speaking with britain's prime minister theresa may on thursday saying our positions remain sorel way my government will always defend the interests of spain if there are no changes we will veto brags that spain ceded control of gibraltar to britain more than three hundred years ago but still claims the tiny mediterranean on place. let's bring in our correspondent there in brussels hi gary explain what spain wants here. spain of course has seen a prime possibility here with the last minute to achieve
11:06 am
a last minute concession on the maximum pressure so the timing for spain to bring up the topic of gibraltar couldn't couldn't be better from their perspective of course to be fair one has to say all along the bracks of process spain has made clear that they want the issue of this tiny rock of britain just in front of their doorstep to be clarified bilaterally they also wanted a clause in the divorce treaty in the drafty wall street that guarantees them a veto a post-breakfast veto on the issue of gibraltar now that clause was in that paper and it has disappeared and now spain wants it back in and so negotiations are ongoing on that subject and they're very keen to see this resolved right this is a very thorny issue as you said spain has made it clear from the beginning that they want this question clarified let's take a look now at what is at stake at peak for people in the region. the spanish town of nonlinear on the border which
11:07 am
a printer unemployment here is high many work across the border nearly ten thousand people in southern spain make the daily commute to gibraltar suno this could become an external pointer it's not yet clear how this will affect their jobs the tourism industry or the port in casinos. he is concerned about the future he's worried his job in a tobacco shop and to proctor could be under threat. would be better. i'm fifty three years old that's not all of work here and i could suddenly find myself out of a job i unemployed if it was that bought up and i have bought what. many here share his sense of uncertainty i mean most of them always still be able to cross the border like we do now no one knows. many people here are taking no chances and preparing for every eventuality. the police stations hey all swamped because
11:08 am
so many people are applying for passports or loss of where their lives it's just like on the bus of. gibraltar like the irish border is one of the main bones of contention in the bronx at negotiations the spanish government says toprol to and spain are so interdependent that many issues such as jobs taxation and customs should be settled by laterally between madrid and london. it wants this to be enshrined in the final divorce deal otherwise it will block the agreement. this is an important point for us as a pro european government if not solved by sunday they will have to use its veto official carpathia. much is at stake for prime minister pedro sanchez spain southern region of angeles is holding regional elections in just over a week's time but sanchez has found support in the form of two planters autonomy's government it too wants bilateral talks between spain and britain over the
11:09 am
territories future relationship without our inclusion in the withdrawal agreement gibraltar. would have faced the cliff edge of the thirtieth of locks two thousand and nineteen. will gibraltar derail the brics in negotiations many in southern spain like me get balance you are hoping for business as usual you. are a character i want to put that question right you could job rother actually jeopardises brags that negotiations. technically sumi gibraltar has actually no veto for an approval of this divorce treaty but that is only technically because what happens is regarding the technical approval it is the british parliament which just rubber stamp that it is the european parliament and then it is the e.u. council and in there there is a majority vote so even members could vote against spain and a proof that treaty wants the european parliament and the british parliament has approved but that is not how things work we have
11:10 am
a summit on sunday and there it is it will be a unanimous decision that it has to rubber stamp the strauss before we go actually into the approval period and also so far the unity has been the sharpest tool in the negotiating process of the you and leaders will not want to risk this so they want this issue with spain to be clarified ahead of that summit there and looking add to that summit on sunday carol what does happen next. well as we speak the member states ambassador and the share pause are preparing that summit they're looking exactly into these issues it is also expected that theresa may is coming tomorrow again to brussels probably also will talk about the hot issue of gibraltar and maybe also the the issue of fish so a number of sticking points on the european side still at stake before we can go ahead with this summit and the summit really is meant to basically rubber stamp soul the hard work the rocky negotiations still going on here in brussels matters
11:11 am
for us in brussels thank you so much. let's catch up on some other stories making news around the world a group of central american migrants have marched to the border crossing in tijuana mexico calling for permission to enter the u.s. president trump assert the close the u.s. border with mexico of authorities quote lose control of the situation. cuba has canceled a health care deal with brazil and recalled thousands of doctors working in the country this after brazil's incoming president. called the doctors slave labor cheaper and billions by collecting most of the wages of doctors and medical workers it sends to countries like brazil. crowds in new york break freezing temperatures for front row seats at the macy's thanksgiving day parade is the annual tradition features a broad array of talent everything from high school bands to broadway stars about fifty million people worldwide were expected to watch the televised spectacle. and
11:12 am
paris rang in the start of the holiday season by turning on christmas lights on the city's famous from p.c. fashion designer prologue a felt and paris mayor on the dougall had the honor of pressing the button that transformed the afternoon. saying in france that a report commissioned by president mccall is likely to recommend changes in the law to allow african works of art to be returned to their nations of origin the report follows up on a promise that mccall made two years ago to return african heritage to africa most of the works were taken during french colonial rule in the nineteenth and twentieth century. in a paris museum on the banks of the sin a palace of african art but the seventy thousand works here have a troubled past many of them were torn from their cultural home during the colonial era. a new report commissioned by french president emmanuel mccall says that
11:13 am
france must return the art it stole. the authors found that as much as ninety five percent of subsaharan african art is held outside the continent. in between a country with a renowned art legacy france's move is being hailed as a step toward justice. by returning property is not a matter of victory for someone or failure for others because in the end it's not a battle. at this it is a needs these assets to strengthen its national economy to provide employment and also for all the cultural heritage manages and curators in this country. back in paris some resistance french our dealers are skeptical that museums can or even should return the vast collections. it's one of these things that looks like morally on its face give it back to who it belongs well what is
11:14 am
a long tail and hasn't been in that country for over a hundred years and you know look france built the whole music a body to respect these objects to preserve them to show them so it's a tricky thing i mean i'm actually kind of in favor of it but i'd like to see how it gets. completed france's wholesale return of looted african art would be historic and could trigger a response from other european countries with colonial era holdings it was not call himself who launched the initiative but it's unclear if he's prepared to see it through. let's bring in lisa lewis she's following the story for us from paris hi lisa so this is a highly anticipated report it's going to be released this afternoon what do we expect. well we know that this report will recommend that if countries make that in mt to france to give back. that was taken during the colonial period between one thousand nine hundred five and one nine hundred sixty from such the herion
11:15 am
countries then the government will have to look into it and give these artworks back within five years if there is no receipt that she's that this artwork was required legally obviously this is a non-binding report and it what rick ryan a change in french law because currently french will says that that is owned by the french government is nontransferable so that would need to be changed and i was a people hear some voices some people are saying you know this is not really the right thing right way to go about this this would be a caricature of history because our colonization wasn't only bad you can say really bad guys they're the good guys we also got lots of good things to these countries that is infrastructure education et cetera and also you know we have a historic role to put preserve and protect these are obviously on the african side people are saying you know it's not you're not in the position to tell us what to
11:16 am
do with these things because these outlets are property free and as we heard at least it's unclear if michael will actually see this through could this also increase pressure on museums and private collectors elsewhere in europe well absolutely i mean not every country has that many immigrants descendants from colonial countries in africa as like france but still there will be a lot of discussion in the u.k. or in germany and france really goes through with this there will be a lot of pressure on these countries to do the same really and what do you think we're going to see from african countries what does this mean for them. it's a huge thing for them because when the french or when other countries went into their countries and you know colonized these countries and then took away these artless it meant for them that they were taking part of their cultural heritage cultural history part of their identity and if you look at these countries but also
11:17 am
the descendants from these countries in france for example is a huge debate many many people from the suburbs have been saying you know we want my car we want the president to go through with this because it would mean that we were finally seen in a way on an as on an equal footing because you know by taking away these artworks it's like saying you don't have a history your history is with us with france and if france really gets gives back these outlets it means that these countries can finally be proud again of that of the history also say you know we have our own heritage and this is what we're going to show in our own museums now our idea is lisa lewis reporting there for us from paris thank you so much. motor sports now and fernando alonso is set to bring the curtain down on his glittering formula one career this weekend the spaniard well bow out of the season ending up with
11:18 am
a grand prix after seventeen years in the sport during that time he won two world championships but many say that number could and should have been more fernando alonso is widely considered one of the most gifted drivers in the history of formula one two world titles before the age of twenty four support that claim the first arrived in two thousand and five alonzo becoming the youngest ever world champion at the time after signing for flavio briatore as revamps retro team. he left rhino after winning his second title in two thousand and six but was never able to recapture his former success at mclaren or ferrari with other teams and drivers hogging the limelight. the respect between us like to think is higher than it's ever been seven in a change alone so fail to win another formula one world championship but his ability behind the wheel has never been in question. he is one of just a handful of drivers to have won two of the three races that make up the triple
11:19 am
crown of motor sport with the monaco grand prix already in the bag alone so i won the twenty four hour of the morning twenty eighteen his focus is now on the indy five hundred despite this new path along so hasn't ruled out to return to formula one in future. you know i've been doing this for for my whole life so maybe next year by april may you know i'm this period in this so far so you know maybe i find their way somehow to come back. whatever the thirty seven year old chooses he leaves formula one as a legend of the modern era. it's just a pity that he isn't departing with a final shot at glory. all right christopher is here with business that this is the most important time of the year for retailers it's the holiday season so many or gift buying season on black friday traditionally kicks off this period of time in the united states with shoppers expecting some capital bargains an estimated one
11:20 am
hundred sixty four million customers are expected to hit the stores until monday this pretty christmas shopping frenzy was invented in the u.s. but much of the rest of the world has now jumped on board and as usual for some the stores couldn't open enough. it's midnight. and it's off to the races. for many on thanksgiving after the tacky dinner comes the shopping frenzy in stalls all across the u.s. thousands of customers are bargain hunting the holiday shopping season has begun. this is such an exciting day for us this is where we pick up our holiday feast that you know made these early signs during the holiday and we fell abraded tens of thousands of our customers and this year is no exception we pulled out all the cops are great guests at a great value. everything is on sale discounts
11:21 am
a huge clothes. first come first serve. ok so it's worth waiting it's freezing cold my hair is a literary ice but i don't care this is a great opportunity you can save money. it's a great place to be. and it's just to enjoy the crowds and enjoy the season with half the fun is to be out of all the people. but not everyone gets his kicks out of the stampede many prefer to shop online but whether it's brick and most of all sales on the website for retailers black friday remains a big deal between now and christmas many of them appearing in hof the year's revenues. for more black friday i have lars hauser here is my colleague of business lars you've lived in the past for quite some time and seen many black fridays what's your take on the shopping frenzy was just getting bigger and crazier because of every year with people lining up in the early evening hours to be in the store
11:22 am
really at the stroke of midnight and it's an absolute stampede then but this whole theater assume i call it from just seeing the pictures obviously speaks to an economic truth that is not a very good one it speaks tells you a lot about consumers in america many of whom are living paycheck paycheck to. and for many people in america black friday is an important day because it's really the only day where those bargains where they can buy a pair of sneakers or a new t.v. or so is it worth it for retailers it is yes and no it is definitely when it comes to revenues because black friday drives in the crowds and of course it's about market share it's about those revenue numbers but those definitely come at a price and that of course is razor thin margins there's really not much money in terms of profits to be made that particular day and next friday is catching on all around the world but it's not that much of a big deal in europe for example yes that's because we have an entirely different shopping culture here you could not imagine stores in germany let's say to open at
11:23 am
midnight or so and that's probably a good thing it has to do with stronger labor laws here as well retailers in retail workers in europe and most countries of course in the world have regular working hours in america they don't they have no guaranteed hours they have low wages and they're not given much of an option here they have to work throughout and throughout a holiday weekend that they would probably spend with their family rather but they're basically told you have to show up at midnight and work thought the night where you going to be fired and lars briefly how does the whole online business factor in here of course that's a big thing over the last couple of years and just like every day retail also on black friday or cyber monday online takes a bigger and bigger slice off the pile here if you just think of eleven eleven here singles day recently the online version of black friday coming out of china on shopping day as billions made of course online too but it also comes with a little bit of a problem here cyber security experts of course warned that these bargains can make
11:24 am
you blind and that people have to really be watchful and not click on any links that apparently lead to bargains but might just be a phishing scam laws are keeping an eye on the most important retail season of the year thank you so much you're welcome. japanese carmaker nissan is planning on seeking a review of the shareholding structure of its alliance with france's rhino that's according to bloomberg just one day after chairman carter's gold was sacked for allegedly underreporting his income there are rising concerns in france about the future of the government's involvement in the franco japanese automotive empire finance ministers of course countries have met in paris to exchange views they underscore their government's commitment to the onus on the lions engineered by go on remains in custody. let's bring in our markets correspondent paul christian brits here paul political leaders say their countries are committed to this alliance but a nissan push for more power surely wouldn't go down well with rendell would it.

no this alliance has been called a marriage before and it looks like one partner seems to be getting out was the other renault isn't too keen on that but is very irritated in the board meeting. on monday one board members. found it very very violent the way that these allegations were presented and renault has essentially been shut out of the investigations. nice time claiming that there might be a conflict of interest so they basically don't know a lot of what is going on. renault has reportedly also tried to delay the dismissal of carlo go in as the chairman of the new board and the interim c.e.o. only today sad that he would protect both the interests off. and the stability of the alliance very much trying to keep things the way they are and paul are there
11:26 am
differences in strategy that nissan and renault made might pursue that would make a shift in power necessary. in this marriage both companies that stayed as they word the corporate culture remained but of course the ultimate goal was to have one strategy going forward to the alliance is as of two thousand and eighteen the largest manufacturer of electric vehicles for example with both companies coming out with electric vehicles much earlier than other competitors they do differ in the markets nissan is strong in the us and also allows access to china for renault whereas renault depends mostly on european market which isn't as strong especially the what were called christian brits reporting on the frankfurt stock exchange paul thank you. and the last item comes from india where what could have been a nightmare and happily for a one year old girl and her parents the family it was getting off
