drama which is unfolding in london the chief negotiator of the european union mission the treated he was not given to british team ons and t. is asking for viable solution for the irish border to keep this ball it open after a break said and if those johnson has workable proposal how to solve this problem then let it grow it said to mr bundy but so far as johnson has only said he wants the backstop this irish border reassurance policy to be removed from the whole of brics it was through all agreement he said that in a phone call just 2 days ago was a joke of the commission president so the game of chicken is still on let's talk about that stop all not issue of perhaps a border on the island of ireland mr johnston says the u.k. will not put in a border so if you can't doesn't what will the e.u.

do. under e.u. law the republic of ireland would be obliged to protect the new external border of the you but the irish government already has said we will not do that either so actually the day or the day off the regs and nothing will happen on the border it will remain open and then will come a point in time where the commission bill say we have to do something on this border because we have to to protect the internal market of the you it would still be some weeks i guess until this actually something happening but nobody wants to install equipment on the board a boat of posts because this put these steps allies in the northern island and may also lead to violence and so there has to be a plan b. that nobody knows exactly what and what that can be at the moment so given where we are with this game of chicken being played. presumably the e.u. is now preparing for britain to leave without

a deal briefly feel actually that they're actually the us already preparing for year now there are many agreements in place to keep planes flying and trucks rolling through the u.k. but these are only agreements designed for 3 or 6 months and then something has to replace them and nobody knows what happens after how it breaks it will there be negotiations at all because of course once said he will not pay the divorce bill and if there's no money there will be no talks the european union said when we get in brussels thank you. now to another country in europe suffering political spasms italy at the country's president has given the prime minister just become today the green light to try and form a new government it's the latest chapter of political crisis that was triggered when the country's far right interior minister amateur salvation he pulled his party out of the former ruling coalition to former rivals the anti establishment

a 5 star movement and the center left democratic party when our attempt to join forces to avoid a new election and leave salvini out in the cold. he exudes call the gist of it conti has been on a wild ride 3 weeks ago he lost his job as prime minister when italy's governing coalition fell apart now he's been tasked with putting together a new government. the country is in a very delicate phase we must put the political uncertainty triggered by the government crisis behind us as soon as possible we're facing critical economic problems. but i think that when it could be. the new coalition partners the antiestablishment 5 star movement and the center left democratic party make strange bedfellows many italians don't see the marriage lasting long. time so i am not going to get that i think this agreement is a bad thing you know like them because they have hated each other for

a long time and now they are 14 in alliance so i really don't think it's a clever thing. some of them being the not very sure because i don't think they will last long. because the differences are obvious and i think there are huge differences in the political programs of the 2 parties that the clear loser so far is far right league party leader matteo so vini he pulled the plug on the last coalition by removing his party's participation he was widely seen to be angling for new elections but the new coalition puts a vote off for now the main picking up i would those who are afraid of elections can run away for a month 6 months or a year. but not forever. the only thing that unites them is their hatred of the league. the drama is likely to settle down in the coming days conte said the new government's most urgent task is to come up with

a budget for the coming year.
