returning to the white softer his trip to europe u.s. president donald trump was uncharacteristically tight lipped about how he talks were going. after 3 days the tower of strumpets threatened we're now indefinitely suspended. people crossing into the u.s. to seek asylum will be rapidly returned to mexico while their applications for asylum are processed in turn mexico will allow these individuals to enter for humanitarian reasons in compliance with its international obligations that matthew malice in mexico we take on the president it is to. increase enforcement to carry it with our migration that is going mental this national guard mexico even priority to the soudan border. on the border with guatemala chicks are being stepped up while these measures were enough to avoid the tariffs the details are not yet
12:03 pm
finalized the united states and mexico have agreed to continue their discussions and nine's the final conditions in the next 90 days. for more on the story i'm joined by luis rose there she's from a research fellow at the institute for latin american studies lisa thanks so much for coming in so the dispute between the u.s. and mexico seems to be settled down for now where does this leave the 2 countries. this leaves the 2 countries i would say not in a better position than they were 2 weeks ago when these trade threat started. the 2 countries have managed in a way to save face but it's really not in a better position mexico has avoided the shame of accepting to become a 3rd safe country and has also managed to squeeze seen its plan for a new integral development plan for central america with no commitment to that from
12:04 pm
the u.s. as to the amount of money that the u.s. is ready to invest and the u.s. has managed to press mexico to enforce a need to rise border. you know not not better off than they were about 2 weeks ago but what options does mexico have to address this issue and try and not really reignite these tensions between the 2 countries the options i would say in the short term are very clear it has to apply the measures that it has promised you with regard to the deployment of the national guard but in the mid term. i think that the options are to establish alliances with other actors to try to be less dependent on the u.s. economy so that these threats are less harmful for mexico in the future and under that deal the mexico is agreed to deploy an extra $6000.00 troops to its border with quite a model of what effect would that have on the migration issue and the flow of migrants one has to consider that the economies of mexico in the south and
12:05 pm
guatemala are quite well integrated to a degree that guatemalan workers come over to mexico to work there so this is 1st of all going to make life very difficult for those people who depend on them and try. border livelihood and i don't think that it's going to stop the flow of migrants in the long term because the problems that cause migration in the northern triangle of central america are not yet addressed that's mexico's plan but we will see if it gets implemented yeah i wanted to pick up on that you know what are the problems that are driving people to migrate through through mexico into the u.s. the problems are connected to political instability to very corrupt governments in duress in go out there. to instability you know to bother to widespread criminality and violence that threatens young boys and young men and pushes them to any grade as the only way to save their lives so very deep seated problems and those without solving those problems they're not going away. these issues likely to be resolved
12:06 pm
by these measures that mexico has put again no absolutely not it will only make migration more difficult it will increase the cost of migration it will increase the cost of the smuggling industry of migrants if you doesn't address the root causes of migration that are very connected to political and economic issues seem central america it's not going to stop migration in the long term louisa pedro's a research fellow at the institute for latin american studies here in germany thank you very much thank you. now to some of the other stories making news around the world the u.n. says the number of venezuelan refugees has now reached 4000000 it's one of latin america's worst ever humanitarian emergencies more and more people have been fleeing the socialist country with little sign of a solution to its political and economic crisis. in budapest rescuers are preparing to try to raise a sightseeing boat that sank in the danube last week 9 people are still missing after the vessel collided with

12:08 pm
threat since the u.s. withdrew from it last year. earlier i spoke to add none tabata by iran expert and head of germany's compo center i asked him how much influence mas has when it comes to keeping the deal afloat. i think we have to be realistic here germany germany's position itself might not be so sure to really influence the situation in the way that it is that we can safeguard the agreement but i think if the foreign minister who must speak on behalf of the e 3 and own conditions a strong political message from the heat really from the european countries france germany and great britain running that can be important and that will be an important signal to try and see what can be done to save the euro agreement the u.s. has impose new sanctions on iran yesterday and iran is refusing to talk to the u.s. could germany be n.a.t.o.'s. what we're seeing right now is that there are various
12:09 pm
countries various heads of state coming to the fore conveying messages messages back and forth between tehran and washington and we are seeing prime minister abbott from traveling to europe on next week as well and i think the entirety of the interlocutors may help to deescalate the situation to some extent so i think it will not be just on. to mediate here but it will be on a lot of people who have been stepped in and try to deescalate the situation right there u.s. has stationed warships in the arabian sea to detail what they call iran's aggressive behavior what's at stake here i guess a lot is at stake i mean we can everybody who ever it starts thinking about what the implications of a armed conflict or even a small incident between the iranian and american troops in the region would be and what escalation potential that made that me on fall everyone knows that this has to
12:10 pm
be prevented and i think this is why we have seen so many different officials from different countries both in the region but also but also outside the middle eastern region trying to make sure that there are some messages sent back and forth between tehran and washington to try to deescalate and to prevent at least in the 1st step some sort of war military action and in the longer run try to paves on ground pave the way for direct talks between the 2. at least expert at best buy speaking to us a little earlier was in sports news now on football transfer rail madrid have confirmed the signing of eden has its shell see for a fee reported to be around one $100000000.00 euros the belgian forwards signed a 5 year deal with the spanish giants bringing to an end a 7 year spell at chelsea the 28 year old won 2 premier league titles to europa league and the a fake up during his time at the west london club. on the women's world cup is
