this is news live from finding a way forward britain's parliament get ready for another votes on alternatives to the government's divorce deal with the european union just days before the u.k. to leave the e.u. and p.c. no closer to agreement also on the program turkey's main opposition party celebrates as its games control the capital ankara in largely elections. set to follow the huge blow to present the ruling party. to meet him politically neutral of a lot of. leads for the first thing in ukraine's presidential election will face incumbent president of the country polish in
6:01 pm
a second round later this. time so welcome to the program. britain's parliament is debating a way to resolve the bratz it crisis in a few hours lawmakers will vote on a number of options to try and reach a consensus on a plan for the country to leave the european union cabinet ministers around to the prime minister since ten downing street for talks ahead of tonight's vote a similar series of votes last week so m.p.'s fail to unite around an alternative to the prime ministers with three months there was no majority the options for a second referendum customs you gave them are support. meanwhile european commission president john claude young says the u. is losing patience with london. but actually we have yet another brics
6:02 pm
a day the fourth vote of a counter correctly and nobody knows where we are going. to dep need we now know what the british parliament does not want but we don't yet know what it does want and as things is an open book in comparison with the british parliament. we need to get the strings to talk now. and you since you're so silent has gone on long enough you didn't realize go straight to me on the way we tried to tell the corresponding to back it to welcome i think it so another set of indicative votes tonight what can we expect. well we're expecting that m.p.'s today are coming to hopefully some serve form of conclusion and it's most likely to be a soft brags of the day would be agreeing on something like you have already mentioned phil the single market the customs union or possibly another referendum
6:03 pm
on any deal that they agree on so is so if the version of president the one that series i'm a has envisage so this today process there is a little bit different from last week we're expecting only a few options to be there so there will be less choice and that makes it more likely for m.p.'s to actually agree on something so the latest bracy deadline is the twelfth of april if you're all shows you say do you think the british lawmakers will have something to talk to brussels about by then. that's the hope here in london on the other hand you don't know what actually that is going to result in because to reason may might choose not to go with what parliament is saying to have and that remains to be seen whether parliament can land find a way in the next days to effectively force her to go three with this option by just having another another yet another vote on this so by no means today will be
6:04 pm
the end of this process and as you mentioned it's the trail of the faithful when the u.k. will leave the european union if there is no resolution to this brics it cannot under and so reason may we don't know what she will do there is speculation that she could actually say that a general election is the only way out so everything really still open by. m.p.'s are acutely aware of this deadline of the twelfth of april and what they don't want is to leave without any deal so they will do everything they can in order to find a solution now under way from parliament to how the british responding to all this chaos and uncertainty around the system. a lot of people are really very passionate now about a year of this is something that has changed from since the referendum really when you're of wasn't much on people's agenda but through this whole process. people are
6:05 pm
very excuse me aware of what's going on in the country and their relationship with europe so over six million people signed a petition an online petition that's going to be debated today about revoking article fifty then we saw last week just fear where i am in front of parliament there were thousands of people who fought for bracks and so really passions on both sides of course there are also those who say well just let's just get on with it and just do anything so i don't have to hear the word bragg's ever again but that's not likely to be the case because it's not unlikely that m.p.'s will rally around some form of gregg's and that might have to be negotiated again with prostitutes and then we see a longer extension so i don't think we have seen the end of the bricks and process just yet to get mass in london thank you well let's talk about the effect on
6:06 pm
germany a climate for head of the german economic research institute for one of the country's most influential think tanks welcome to d w now the u.k. of course is a significant german export market how worried is german industry by the chaos and uncertainty surrounding bracks and. certainly very worried because as he said britain is one of the most important export markets for dumb an industry and there is the worry that we will end up with a heartbreak that nobody actually wants but it may just happen by accident given the political constellation in the u.k. today so a lot of companies are very worried most of them expected that there would be some sort of agreement and now they realize it may not be forthcoming so like the british german companies have also often complained about a huge red tape how vocal are german boardrooms about e.u. reform. earned not very so german businesses have
6:07 pm
avoided at least in the domestic debate criticizing the e.u. too much they've taken it as a given that brags that will happen and they are more focusing on the objective of limiting the fallout of on minimizing the damage. a criticism is often made of the institution that people often say that it serves the north of europe better than it serves the south do you think there's there's any truth in that. well i think that's misleading there is of course a debate about whether the large countries dominate the institutions but again. they have the relative influence really depends on the issues on the table i think the mont general thing is that all european countries benefit from the existence of the entire markets from the ability to live and work abroad and citizens benefit from these abilities of course we have had very different economic developments and
6:08 pm
that is overshadowing everything else so southern europe has economic problems now in some countries these are worse than in others and a lot of that is linked to the e.u. sometimes brussels is made the scapegoat we shouldn't forget that what happens in countries economically is still mostly determined by national economic policies and also by a national economic structures the countries are sometimes lucky or not very little of the problems we have today in southern europe is really caused by problems so how do you think bricks that will affect the british economy long term are there any lessons for germany in this. i think it really depends on how briggs it is all going on as if this is a soft break that if this is a break that preserves the economic ties and avoids bigger problems in the u.k. and the rest i think we are ok and the damage will not be large if it is
6:09 pm
a heartbreak that this will lead to a blame game there will be economic disruptions this will lead to blame game this will radicalize the political debate in particular in the ok and future cooperation will be undermined which is very dangerous that's why i think it is very important to avoid this heartbreak that's occurrence foose from the german economic research institute thank you so much for joining me thank you. we'll take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world to be elections are over the weekend has been described as a stunning setback for the country's present time earlier for the first time in eighteen years the president's party has lost control of the capital ankara in an even greater blow his main rivals the secularists the c.h.p. of also tried victory in the country's economic istanbul many voters say they're unhappy with the way the president has been the country's economic downturn let's get more from dora jones who's in istanbul welcome durrant how significant are
6:10 pm
these results for the opposition and indeed for the president or you have to understand is the president heard one has built up a reputation over the last fifteen years of electoral invincibility he's basically crushed anyone that has challenged him in the past decade and a half and while he was name wasn't on the ballot box on the sunday polls he made this election all about his rule a referendum about his role and the fact that he received a major slap and losing and it now seems possibly which was one of the things that the unthinkable before the unfolds will of dealt a major blow to this invincible reputation and this will cause the present problems because he is used as a local success to face down critics or very many faces of thora tarion role pointing out his democratic success on top of that he is use that to silence critics within his own ranks pointing the fact that only he can deliver electoral success now he's seen
6:11 pm
a potentially vulnerable not only for me to opponents outside the party but also within his own movement so where did it go wrong for him. well earth one success over the last fifteen years has been at the company by unprecedented economic prosperity time and he has many of his supporters have been the main beneficiaries of that but now that has all come to an end the party is over the country is in recession soaring inflation at over twenty percent food prices running at over thirty and to many reports even higher in cities like that is causing a lot of pain people are really feeling very uncomfortable possibly even hungry as the adage goes a hungry person is an angry person and there's a lot of anger and a lot of that was directed at earth wind and the raleigh and his government and they have punished him at the polls so this was these were local elections how does the president now deal with the fact that he seems to have much less political support in so many communities while this really is going to be
6:12 pm
a problem going forward because for the opposition now who've been widely marginalized for more than fifteen years they have now control of the capital and possibly. a population of fifteen million some medium sized country the opposition will use this as a platform to say there is an alternative to earth one's will a different way of running the country they will also use the significant resources to build up a wide base of support within the city which can be a springboard which they will be hoping for a little success an old one in ninety four emerged from an obscure politician when he took over to end up dominating politics and this was his base during journeys in istanbul. sunday also saw the first round of ukraine's presidential election and the strong lead for comedian and political newcomer lenski is a household name in ukraine where he stars in a t.v. show about an ordinary man suddenly elevated to the presidency so is life about to
6:13 pm
imitate art well be determined to run off elections in three weeks when he's expected to face the incumbent petro poroshenko. unwinding with a game of ping pong is a lengthy but dark horse candidate celebrated his big win with a party at a trendy kiev nightclub a location that underscores his popularity with young voters. the forty one year old capitalized on frustration over rampant corruption and the faltering economy but he has yet to spell out what he would do in power one of his campaign slogans was no promises no apologies zelinsky is basically a screen under which many ukrainians project their expectations he didn't make strong policy stance of the point so it's very difficult to say who actually you will be should he be elected. selenski came to the candidacy by way of a hit t.v. show called servant of the people where he plays an outsider elevated to the
6:14 pm
presidency. offscreen he may not be entirely outside the system critics say he's in the pocket of an oligarch who owns the t.v. channel that era selenski program and who opposes president petro poroshenko to many the incumbent has failed to fix everything that's wrong about ukraine corruption and low living standards. to a pitch that you would tell me this election is like another made on protest the third mass protest concur for deciding where country will be in ten to fifteen years time we're choosing the country or children and grandchildren will be living in egypt where she did you. know enough of course i'm satisfied we voted for selenski. everything is cool though we didn't expect poroshenko to make it into the second round as everyone starts the runner up with. everyone including yulia timoshenko herself the former prime minister is a heroine of the country's pro western movement she spent years in jail on what she
6:15 pm
says were politically motivated charges she called the exit polls dishonest and asked supporters to wait for final results. the central election commission said no systematic violations had been registered during the poll despite allegations of widespread vote buying. acknowledging more than two thousand complaints the body said reports of irregularities would be reviewed but none required immediate action . alexander who is the former principal deputy chief monitor of the o.s.c. a special monitoring mission to ukraine he joins us from the care of welcome to the w so we have a complete outsider a man with no political experience who is now battling the incumbent president in the running that's what it looks like what's go wrong so president of poroshenko he came in on a landslide. the election process as it
6:16 pm
stands most of today's not yet finished i assume know the two front of we'll be having another round on the twenty first of april and on the off the dots as a result of these elections will be clear whether we'll be there we never will have all hands full of work and i'm sure the people of ukraine will make the choice of their choice in order to ensure that the country moves forward. what is it about the way the country has been run that means so many of them will vote for a man with no political experience as opposed to that they come but. i think it's refreshing to see that democracy is at play here of the elections were not clear altogether from the outset of the vote on sunday now also showed once again that's democracy works here and it is not over yet there will be another round on the twenty first of april where that process will come to
6:17 pm
a conclusion if not i mean. this non-politician defeat actually wins that the run if he actually becomes president i do not like it to be viewed by russia and today by the i.m.f. which is funding a seventeen and a half billion dollars aid package to write. its very little known for for what the selenski stance once again whoever wins study election will have a lot of work to complete most of for morse of course it stopped the conflict in the eastern part of the country that still needs to be addressed still every day is the you know you see special monitoring mandate mission mandated to money toward a cease fire reports about cease fire violations and still on a very regular basis of elian stare get injured this is one of the big task of the next president which will be finalized and determined if the next round on the twenty first of april and to the eastern part of the country the donbass today
6:18 pm
actually gets a vote in this election. there were procedures in place that people could post a vote on and go to their their polling stations in situations and organizations monday that we've monitoring the election and will surely comment on that process too it is important in the conflict in the east will be addressed head on that they saw facts both sides of what is referred to the context like dividing government and non-government controlled areas of this a conflict that is now over five years old and needs urchin and attention here inside ukraine but also worldwide ok and again just going about this this idea of this this complete outsider coming to power in ukraine if that is indeed what happens how is that likely to be viewed by russia. while i think ole neighbors and old partners off ukraine will make their plans until starting
6:19 pm
gate before ever wins this election would it be done and new person or person that has already been known to the neighbors on the its partners that will have to be seen and i'm sure. that whoever veins will have the best in mind for the contrary and the best in mind to solve the many problems discount three has still to resolve on xander in kiev thank you. then in these woman accused of killing the half brother of the north korean leader kim jong un has been spent death penalty. not expected to be freed from prison in malaysia next month after finishing a three year sentence that includes time vietnam's ambassador described miss doane as a victim in the case of news comes just weeks after her codefendant was freed. from . relief and joy for do on t. home after the murder charge against her was dropped in exchange she pled guilty to
6:20 pm
a weapons charge. with reduction for good behavior plus time already served to on is set for release as early as may. her father was illegally. with her i hope that our daughter can be released in one month's time i would like to extend my sincere thanks to all the lawyers here. it was a case that shocked the world a cold war style assassination in a busy airport on feb thirteenth twenty seventeen kim jong nam arrived at koala lumpur airport for a flight to macau moments later a woman smeared a nerve agent on his face he approached the help desk saying he felt unwell and died on route to hospital ok. malaysian authorities arrested wanty hung from vietnam and city safe from indonesia they denied murder telling the court
6:21 pm
they were tricked by north korean spies who told them it was for a t.v. prank. was his murder a state sponsored hit p.r. nyang denies any involvement but as the elder half brother of north korean leader kim jong un kim jong nam could have had a claim as ruler but he'd fallen out of favor and was living in exile for north koreans who left malaysia just hours later are suspected of involvement in the killing and wants a lawyer called on the court to bring the real perpetrators to justice. you know british and of iraq we see that justice must be done. and we also serve the boys logic that every recess in certain facts will be unsatisfying and the emphasise that they must be brought to justice. with the only suspects in custody now cleared of murder justice for kim jong nam looks increasingly unlikely.
6:22 pm
it will start with what it was. a bit of movement among the top four in germany's bond as they go this weekend with just seven matches left to play this season. to support conspiracy. so i don't buy a game of the sox but over the weekend we'll get to that's let's talk about sunday's big match frankfurt winning yet again yes they're in great form they've got three nil they've now moved up to fourth spot of course that for sport is very very important because that is germany's final berth for the champions league they've been in front tested form they've won the last five in the league let's have a look at the best of the action. the frankfurt faithful were hoping to see the home side continue their run and leap frog gladbach in the standings and the hosts duly set the tone from the opening whistle would look at your big shooting just wide after a mere three minutes play. looked up held out to the break but thought constitutes forty fifth minute finish from an acute angle gave frankfurt the advantage.
6:23 pm
and constitution doubled his towering sunny home an incredible pass from on to a real bitch just after the hour mark for his fifth goal of the season. with five minutes left in regular time jamie de coster third yo bitch for an entire hour to finish up his own three nil frankfurt your bitches sixteen league goals have been tied for second this corn chart. the big three c's frankfurt moved to fourth place with their best run in years putting them in champions league contention. frankfurter winning yet again they must be the surprise club this season well yes and no i mean obviously they changed managers at the start of the season went to buy in but obviously far and wanted the i tried for coached they were doing something right last season anyway having won the the german cup but at the hotel came in the new coach and he did a very clever thing because when you coach community to change everything and make
6:24 pm
lots of alterations that actually weren't needed you know. if it ain't broke don't fix it no way around and yeah it's just it's just he is just up to it and these scoring goals rich going goals and they're scoring goals why change things and they're reaping the benefits now so let's talk about some days of a game yeah well shout finally got the win maybe. away shaka very lucky they were playing a team even worse than them because he never really are doing bush aka now given themselves a big hope of a big chance of survival let's see how they manage to be however one no. who would hold their nose in this relegation battle even certain to the shelter bench has seen a predictable focus on defensive stubbornness to be did a low end divide and a sniff of girls gone i have xander nubile to the rescue for shelter i was expected this wasn't the finest spectacle but shaka showed just
6:25 pm
a bit more quality and took the lead on thirty nine minutes. one nil with his first goal for the royal blues he did well to kill benyamin stumble across and hung over gave him the freedom of the penalty box to pick his spots. over press more after the break but we're ultimately toothless i floored muse leah's shot kissed the bar i. couldn't find a way past nubile. one nil the final score relegation looms ever closer for head over to take a step towards safety. so shoko were a second class citizen and now they're having absolutely awful season but that win has just given them a little bit of insects but they're not safe yet let's talk about the title race and this was a nail biting wind biting weekend for the title contenders indeed now we have bruce you don't win back on top it's been very topsy turvy on top for many weeks and all
6:26 pm
of a sudden by and stormed back into form. don't have a bad spell it looks like byron was suddenly the face of the title i know for certain thought and be close to the weekend cafe had scored two goals very very late on looked like it was going to be a draw he got might win and look at it was coupled with only managing a draw at freiburg that was a woman draw so that means no two points ahead at the top if we had a look at the table and there's just seven games left now so it's really getting tight it is the best title race we have had in germany since the early ninety's i mean it's actually fantastic what makes it even better they're playing each of the next weekend against dortmund you have to think you don't win when they will go on to win the title it's getting exciting for the first time in so long and there was a doctor who said you saw exactly the right. this day w. news live from but ended up news asia is up next i'll be back at the top of the
