tens of thousands of east germans to make their way to the west and signaled the beginning of the end of the cold war. and hong kong streets again filling with protesters but not with tear gas this time around the massive turnout comes after stern warnings from beijing. i'm brian thomas thanks so much for joining us the n.g.o.s parading a rescue vessel in the mediterranean has described the situation for the 100 people on board as a humanitarian emergency the spanish flag ship open arms is currently anchored off the italian island of lampedusa authorities have refused permission to dock there now spain has offered to take the migrants at the port of alegate see it is for. to

see it as that would be the journey of the open arms but it has rejected that offer and says the journey of several days is quote unrealistic given the conditions on the ship right now spain has now said it can dock at whichever port is most convenient while some migrants though are tired of all the haggling and all the waiting. with good. dried some on the horizon safety on the italian island of lampedusa behind them chaos aboard a charity vessel the migrant struggle through the water. on the to be brought back to the visibly i have a crowded open arms and this is what they were turning to. the state of new mutiny aboard the ship the charity's direct to sounding an s.o.s. about what might happen if they aren't allowed to dock in need by italy you know we're going to spend days waiting to find people in the water fights violence

crises older time what more do you want gets a microcosm of the magnificent up of. dice open arms has been more several 100 meters off lampedusa. these people are at the center of the judicial and political battle immediately the country's interior minister wants him to go elsewhere. if you don't do what i love you should tough guy wins in the end so i'm pleased to report that the migrants aboard the open arms have had the good news that the spanish government will open its ports to them most fun euro low for. dozens of young and frail people aboard i pronounce of already being allowed ashore need to leave this weekend. but salvage the alkies to take the obvious would send a wrong signal close up. it's a maritime standoff that's lasted for weeks now. at risk the safety of

100 people aboard the spanish beso. well the german government meanwhile is calling on the e.u. to restart naval missions for rescue operations in the mediterranean following this i'm joined by hans froth from the political desk good morning what is the german government want to see to prevent these types of all to regular crisis situations the german government basically is pushing for an e.u. mission again to pick up people in the mediterranean who are in need we must remember there was a. european the until you have a c. until spring this year the mission called sophia which basically was canceled because of the italian government refused to participate in. any food off of this current italian government came into power and knowledge the german government is pushing for every new e.u. mission but i think what they are hoping for is. a number of states to participate

possibly not the entire ok if italy continues to refuse to participate which nations can pick up the slack can't even work without a time forces attacking ports well the german the german foreign minister has been saying that there's a more than a dozen states that are possibly interested in participating that have expressed their willingness but of course we have to remember there are a number of states that are adamant that they will not participate it to be has been one of the until recently we don't know what's going to happen in it to be since the government there is likely to fall apart very soon but what the germans are doing at the moment i think also because a german woman is going to be the new commission president was a law from the law and she is trying to renu the inside a system in the e.u. and in the in that context i think i was hoping that there will be a kind of coalition of the willing of maybe a dozen or more european states who will participate in this and will then also

take up the migrants that's a crucial issue for each of the obviously and for countries like spain that don't want the migrants all to end up in their countries ok let's let me pick up on that what happens and who decides. to resettle migrants once they make landfall once they're allowed into port what's the process for them right now right at this moment was ships like the one we're seeing here are it's a very at talk process there's some cold which countries prepared to take some of these may have more than 100 migrants and there's another migrant ship currently waiting for more than 300 to be taken. then a few countries in this case maybe 5 or 6 france germany romania luxembourg countries such as these will take side take up a number of these and they will then be taken to that country and go into the normal asylum process in those individual does individual countries thanks very much for bringing us up to date on this. it's to hungary now where president viktor

orban is hosting german chancellor on the m akhil at this hour the 2 leaders are in the city of. hungary border's austria there attending events to commemorate a pivotal pivotal moment in the fall busy busy of the iron curtain 30 years ago now on this day in 1909 show prague was a site of a picnic but it was not just any picnic it was organized by the pan european union a group that supported civil rights groups in the then communist countries of the east now during the event hungary unexpectedly allowed hundreds of east germans fleeing communism to cross the border without any kind of documentation then went on to make their way to west germany it was the 1st rip in the iron curtain between communist eastern europe and the democratic west ends of thousands would follow in their footsteps a few weeks later when hungary opened its western border and. well today maclin or bonn are set to hold bilateral talks as relations between berlin

and budapest remain strained by hungary's downs on migrants our political correspondent simon young is in show prawn i asked them what we can expect to come out of their discussions. it will be very interesting to see how directly the 2 leaders talk about that because of course we we talk about east german refugees in 1909 people he really didn't know where to go how to get to a better life and that's exactly the same sort of question as migrants we're seeing arriving in southern europe today are facing and of course. is leading a government which is it refused to participate in a europe wide distribution of migrants and is generally skeptical on the whole idea of large numbers of people coming to europe at all. as blamed mccall for opening the borders and so on that's going to be

a real point of tension i think the chancellor will have to say something about how pointed it will be will be very interesting but there are other areas too where the 2 countries need to work together reforming the e.u. and for instance deciding how the e.u. should relate to russia and future germany's been very worried about hungary's close relationship with russia also about the development of civil society and democratic institutions here in hungary so there's a lot for the 2 leaders to talk about not much time and it'll be interesting to see how much detail they're able to go into on this historic anniversary. of simon young talking earlier today let's preview down some of the other stories making this an arabian oil tanker seized off early july is at sea again after a court there released the grace one was being held on suspicion of smuggling oil to syria contravening use sanctions iran has warned the u.s. not to seize any tankers. back. afghanistan's president offshore off

. just as close to terrorists. but as they arrived on sunday they were united kingdom people power and peace their weapons of choice in the battle for that image last week there's a lot of protests in the airport and i think that caught up attention for the whole world that's why i think today is one of the important day for us to stay peaceful and try to be a rational and civilized group of people because i know the worst watching us as night fell the true test began as protesters converged outside the government complex it seemed like this could end like so many protests before take out a mosque at the ready trepidation police could come in at any moment to disperse the crowd then came this. just like. small clusters of protesters spreading through the ground like mission complete
