comes amid growing fears of economic chaos if britain leaves the e.u.'s scheduled on march twenty ninth without a deal several government ministers threatened to resign if she did not offer the possibility of more time on. prime minister teresa mayes announcement of a motion to the labor exit is actually the announcement of a series of votes and more votes if parliament rejects the deal she is negotiating with the european union it can vote the next day on whether it endorses a no deal bragg's it and if parliament rejects that the government will on the fourteenth of march bring forward a motion on whether parliament wants to see a short limited extension to article fifty. and if that house votes for an extension seek to agree that extension approved by the house with the e.u. and bring forward the necessary legislation to change the exit date commensurate with that extension. the british pound rose on news of may's motion which called

some fears that britain will crash out of the european union in just over a month without a deal some analysts have predicted economic chaos if that happens. several senior ministers have threatened to resign unless may allowed m.p.'s to extend the march deadline and that comes a day after opposition labor leader jeremy corbin supported a second popular referendum on leaving the e.u. if labor doesn't get the deal it wants to get mass spoke to lawmakers on both sides of the divide well it's good that she's contemplating the possibility of an extension for the first time because that has always been the never to pull in most people's view but i still think there's very little trust in what the prime minister has to say and i hope that means that this week on women's will take no deal off the table he brags that he was conceded will vote for tomorrow which may extend. the time scale on which you have your senior at the end of it

that's going to leave i think about extended period. the motion to allow a delay goes before parliament wednesday injecting yet more and. certainty into a process that is exhausted many in britain and in the e.u. . are in for more on this now i'm joined by our correspondent charles until she is outside parliament in london good evening to you charlotte so this looks like a major concession to reason may use she backing down here. well that is certainly how a lot of people will want to paint this off to rule to reason may have been saying for months over and over again that she will not delay the case exits from the european union others will point out that she was essentially forced into this because she was facing multiple resignations within her own policy others they might point out that what we've heard today could in fact what into reason may's

favor and there are a number of reasons for that first of all what's key to understanding all of this is to reason may is still trying to get her deal with the european union through parliament you are skeptics within your own party have been blocking not they voted against her last month on the number of m.p.'s she made the hoping that those you are skeptics may be so concerned about the prospects of a delayed surprise that they might just be forced to back head deal the other key thing about what's happened today it's the reason may is essentially been who wants more time to get dio approved and that is because tomorrow there was meant to be an amendment ruling out and. that now has been pushed back for another couple of weeks that gives the reason a more time indications with the european union and it also means that that's vote on in asia will happen just days really the for the u.k. ferments leave the e.u. so the pressure really will be on the m.p. to figure out exactly what the u.k.

is going to do yeah i mean talk about a pressure cooker there in parliament as we get closer to march twenty ninth we know that britain's main opposition announced yesterday that they would they would now support a second referendum under circum certain circumstances and talk to me about how disruptive a second referendum would be to the whole system there since we're so close to break day already. well very disruptive sussan ley but we are the u.k. is living in in disruptive uncertain times and when you look at the fact that the u.k. is still facing down the prospect of a no deal perhaps not a must win tonight but perhaps a dozen extensions later on this the idea of a second vote some might argue is the safe. option but that of course plays huge logistical problems first of all it takes a lot of time to organize

a referendum like that and time is something that the u.k. just does not have a second of course is that they don't know what question the u.k. people of the u.k. will be almost in a second but not something that's going to be extremely divisive there has been some suggestion by the opposition party that they people are off with a supports a reason made oh whether they support. remaining in the european union but a lot of euro skeptics here in the u.k. will not like that option will be very unhappy of course it will be something that will cause huge problems within the european union so while you know it's remained as might be for you by the idea that there could be a second vote this second vote by no means is the magic wand that is going to solve the problems and brian i just want to point out that of course even if there were a second vote there are no guarantees that the result would be any different to the result that the u.k. saw two years ago so that's a very important point. especially with us being so close to that march twenty

ninth day. in london on the story for us tonight charlie thank you. pakistan's army has warned india to expect a surprise after indian warplanes attack targets inside pakistan india says that they were terrorist camps and that its airstrikes killed hundreds pakistan says there were no casualties and it has reserved what it calls its right to defend itself of tensions between the neighboring nuclear states have been growing since a deadly militant attack on indian troops two weeks ago. jubilation across india as news of the airstrikes emerge there have been growing impatience to avenge a suicide attack against indian soldiers in kashmir earlier this month as delhi announced it had targeted the militant group that claimed the massacre celebrations arrested throughout the country. according to the indian government

minister imran khan called an emergency meeting to discuss further steps islam about accuses delhi of putting regional peace and stability at risk and a bit together support ahead of india's general election once again in government how this is open to is. ridiculous. differs. from. what it was to. be. we've had stability. we respect whatever the real motivation behind the raid pakistan's military is already planning retaliatory measures now it is time for india to be a part of a sports the response to the gum at the point and time of our choosing that over civil leadership decides and it is as

a matter of fact has decided it is your turn now to varied and get ready for cyprus words of defiance ignored across the border at a campaign rally in raw just on indian prime minister narendra modi assured his followers their country is in safe hands. for d.w. has uncovered new details about the way german weapons and technology are being used in the war in yemen as part of an investigative research project known as hash tag german arms d w has found evidence that saudi and iranian forces are using german weapons in yemen for naval ground and air operations a far greater role there was previously no tens of thousands of civilians have borne the brunt of the war in yemen millions are on the brink of starvation a saudi led coalition including forces from the united arab emirates have been fighting against who think rebels in yemen since two thousand and fifteen both countries have long been among the top clients of germany's industry the german

government has repeatedly denied any knowledge of german made weapons being used in yemen citing germany's strict arms export guidelines. you can find out much more about this story in about twenty minutes we're going to be talking about it on the day following this a little. our here's some of the other stories now that are making headlines around the world there is confusion surrounding the surprise resignation of iranian foreign minister mohammad the reef negotiated tehran's twenty fifty nuclear deal with world powers and reports suggested that president hassan rouhani had rejected zarif resignation and is standing by his moderate allies. hundreds of students in algeria have again taken to the streets to protest a possible fifth term for president votes if the students boycotted classes in university cities across the country the eighty one year old leader came to power

twenty years ago is announcements that he would seek reelection sparked a wave of protests. voters in cuba have overwhelmingly backed a new constitution the changes recognize the country as a one party communist state while recognizing private property and foreign investment as well as modest social changes the electoral commission says eighty six percent of voters backed the changes. vote counting in nigeria has not finished yet but one of the candidates is already chanting victory incumbent president mohamed who bihari he has taken an unassailable lead over top opposition challenger. shortly after a campaign spokesman announced the unofficial numbers bihari supporters raced to celebrate their candidate's victory outside party headquarters in the boucher the hari took office in twenty fifteen insult a second term with pledges to fight corruption while overhauling the country's old

road and rail network. and joining us tonight from a boucher is our correspondent funny for targeting to you funny it's reported that president karzai has taken a leave that just can't be beat now in this election what more can you tell us. definitely brian there was some excitement outside of this building outside of the electoral commission where these votes are being politically to two or two old all of the states that are bringing their results in here because the most populous states kind of state and states were announced for the p.c. party securing more than one point half million votes for president to hire so that definitely puts him into a lead situation even though there's no bottom line yet no final result yet ever the spokesperson has just mentioned of the a.p.c. can paint committee has already announced that they are preparing a victory speech for president laurie and also requesting the. sequel to concede defeat the reaction of if you see p.d.p.

of the challenging parties of course not to accept the result in fact they're saying that the results of four states have to be canceled but also the announcement here behind me it's current you know break the and it's going to break the announcement here behind me has to stop they say until all data is transparently available to all parties so you can tell there's a lot of commotion here in the air and there's a lot of going on before the results are even being announced it looks like the incumbent president. is going to be reelected i mean what can we say good for the why have people put so much faith in him. right you really ask yourself given the fact there are so many challenging this huge country actually one person told me today it's kind of like in the game of thrones is hardly seen as the king the indisputable king of nigeria and of course that depends where you ask but of course president start on that ticket of integrity even though the government around him is facing

a lot of allegations of corruption for example president mubarak is standing firm on that ticket that stands with integrity that he stands for fighting corruption and so on and a lot of foreigners as c a t could maybe even were worse but i think what may be here is the decisive factor which is the number of people who did not go and cast a ballot in fact the go to turnout is supposed to be the lowest of the want to turn out since the end of military rule twenty years ago so i think it's going to be a decisive factor is about home what kind of margin president is going to win this president if you really wins it according to official results and not just enough isha results that are already six relating here in this room at. what we do you're bringing us those official results as soon as they come in if i need to charge in nigeria on the story for us tonight thank you but when i was you've been is very low where the failed attempt to deliver humanitarian aid has left hundreds stranded in neighboring colombia supporters of the self-proclaimed interim president one

crossed the border to help bring the aid into business where you are but president nicolas maduro has closed the borders so those people they can't get back home. volunteers who took part in the attempt to deliver aid on saturday say they're now being threatened if. they told them the should get rid of their vests because they would otherwise get killed they were afraid so they took them off and threw them away i collected the vests and. fearing possible reprisals that is whalen's like me now find themselves trapped on the other side of the border too afraid to return home but where possible of their cross-overs of the other side and the government supporters strip you to check if you have any skulls if you do you're in trouble they want to kill you because you to find the government you're forced to take refuge here in colombia because if you cross the border things will happen by

a loud. now he's worried about his family members who have also received threats. we have family on the other side that also have to go to work you don't want anything to happen to them what happens to them if you die here fighting for your country you don't want that to happen to your family stays on the other side starving and with no medicine. but he says he won't give up. well the opposition is still active anyway opposition at any time the opposition is out there fighting for our country. and now armed with sticks and stones they'll keep trying to open up access across the bridge. because we don't want to give up this war we're in because if we give up we will all crush on the future of our brothers our children off fathers our mothers at least here we have kids thirteen fourteen fifteen year olds fighting. they've already been shot in the face head and chest.

that had a rough time but they keep coming back to find because they want to see their mom and their dad and their siblings growing up and getting old. when. their faces were shown on international media and now they're being targeted by the collective us. they tell us we're dead men but they've identified us. people have told us that there's no arrest warrant out for us that we want to buy the military the police the intelligence services but i swear to god those of us who are here i'm not criminals. we don't want to hurt anybody we just want freedom for our country on the other side of the border that's our country and these people are taking over and destroying it and putting us in the it's wrong even if the border is open to these young volunteers that will not be able to return home as long as they call it t. those maintain their power in venezuela. well the vatican is describing the

conviction of all strong cardinal george pell on five counts of sexually assaulting children as painful news the vatican's former treasurer continues to protest is innocence and has watched an appeal accord in melbourne found pell guilty of sexually assaulting two thirteen year old choir boys in the late one nine hundred ninety s. . no you will. find you cardinal george pell was heckled as he left his latest court hearing in melbourne for now he's free but people outside the court were calling for a tough sentence. the catholics and told me a week amman that he be excommunicated from the kids george pell is amongst the of freak he has to be child not hi i'm detention none of this pathetic we justice we want to seeming child we want to see him for all i help think if the jury found

that tells sexually assaulted two choir boys in a melbourne cathedral in one thousand nine hundred ninety six the unanimous verdict was handed down on december eleventh but due to a suppression order reporting is only now being allowed a previous trial resulted in a hung jury pelle has always denied the charges peters and simple. i'm innocent of these charges the photos. idea of sexual abuse is abhorrent to me. pal is on leave from his role as treasurer the third most powerful position in the vatican. he is also australia's most senior catholic cleric. and. pope francis has in the past praised pal for his response to abuse but his conviction is another stain on a church whose leaders are accused of failing to deal with child sexual abuse

within their ranks. or correspondent maynor is following the case from sydney we asked him about the action the catholic church is likely to take against this senior figure well is appealing the conviction that proves this may take some time same some months maybe even if that appeal is unsuccessful then it's possible the inquiry will be taken up by the vatican they will consider the allegations against him and if they decide then he could be deep throat or excommunicate it but we're talking about a a fairly long time right something that may take many months possibly even it's. well find her peroration for the second summit between north korean leader kim jong un and us president don't trump have begun the two leaders of arrived in the vietnamese capital know what meetings are planned for wednesday when they'll discuss ways to implement pyongyang's promise to give up its nuclear weapons.

bureau chief in washington d.c. alexander phenomenon has been finding out what policy strategists there are expecting from this second summit. when president trump and north korean leader kim jong un first met in singapore last year very good very good there was there was a circumstance but not much stuff. from the except that they could remain getting nothing in return for those living in our. cia's former deputy division chief of korea come through the meetings and failure said to us and. since singapore we've had no progress whatsoever on denuclearization in fact north korea continues to nuclearize they continue production of fissile material as well as warheads and mobile missile launchers and missiles and indeed they've even expanded and refined the production facilities for all of those components. from august his strategy is

working because north korea has stopped its nuclear and missile tests and allowed the repatriation of the remains of americans killed during the korean war in return the u.s. president canceled military drills with south korea i decision met with a lot of criticism on capitol hill lawmakers there remain skeptical talks are always better than insults and fighting but. i'd like to see a real agenda for this summit rather than just complacency and there is a danger in complacency once you get sick and something more and more talk and hopefully more measurable progress. donald trump desperately needs a win the recent government shutdown was seen as a big defeat for the president his approval ratings remain low the moeller investigation is closing in and the democrats in congress are blocking trump's domestic agenda in this situation

a foreign policy success could provide some relief but for that the you as president has to get more concessions from kim than during their last meeting in singapore it's a high risk situation but worth trying so smocked a former state department official and an expert on korea there are two things he will be watching for there's a possibility that we might see. washington first singapore idea of normalizing relations i mean it's time that they actually have something that could be a big announcement the second one on the peace regime on the peninsula i would be surprised if there was some kind of a declaration of the end of the korean war or a peace settlement. or only announced korean war it would be great t.v. but it wouldn't necessarily mean all that much and the actual a peace treaty would involve south korea and china and it could take time so whatever brand proclamations are made

a real breakthrough will be parks. well there are certainly some serious issues on the table but we want to end on something wider while the vietnamese government is hosting the talks residents of annoy are less concerned about nuclear weapons they're just excited that their city of the center of attention. i would be proud if they think about about vietnam. when you don't like. to avoid the rain. well you got d.n.a. i will not regret this haircut because trump is the leader i admired them a bit. i'm

a coffee is the symbol of peace. we just decided was make burgers great and. they're happy and home noyo after a short break i'll be back to take you through the day jeanette more on that exclusive investigation into the weapons trade trail between germany and europe.
