this is the line from britain's prime minister protests in luxembourg. food astley's told sometimes countries do part of the big european youth with less than 7 weeks to go the e.u. says the u.k. has revealed a no concrete alternative to the controversial irish border. bringing the latest from love some but also on the program more tensions over the future of syria's last stronghold. turkey's president said he fears a new way for refugees and threatens to reopen the dose to go if she holds talks
6:01 pm
with the leaders of russia and. has the sleeping giant. shaking for a couple. much tasteful. welcome to the program. today's directive talks in luxembourg between the british prime minister bar's johnson and e.u. commission presenter joan claudie young has produced no breakthrough mr johnson was heckled as he left the talks and scepter plans a news conference with the luxembourg prime minister the u.k. and you have given differing assessments of the meeting of britain sounding cautiously optimistic of the european commission said the u.k. had still not come up with viable alternatives to the contentious irish border back
6:02 pm
stuff despite this both sides have agreed to increase their efforts to negotiate an orderly divorce by the 31st of october or is johnson's on sched year old absence meant that luxembourg's prime ministers have a patel had to give his speech next to an empty podium he told reporters that britain was responsible for coming up with a workable solution. for this is the chance it's been a decision from the party it was a decision from david cameron to do it they decide they decide i don't regret it but don't want to blame on us because now they don't know how to get out of this. situation they put themselves. it's not my choice. let's go to luxembourg or join did every correspondent barbara starr welcome barbara so this meeting was was held in luxembourg and the luxembourg prime
6:03 pm
minister there sounded very upset. tell us what else is the very best i had to say and why the luxembourg prime minister is sounding off about about talks that are actually between the commission and the united kingdom. i mean that's what was left alone by the incredible hulk aka boris johnson who snuck out by the side door and so it was sort of you veterans chance to really let fly and tell the press the waiting press who had thought there would be a word for us johnson what he really thought about rex it and he really said it very clearly this is a who made mess this is something britain has created and they no don't come up even with the including often idea what a solution could be like so serve you better really scrooge out on the idea that they might get the deal because time is really running and running away and it might be the case that boris johnson is in fact running down the clock are all
6:04 pm
these negotiations a sham so you better wouldn't say it outright but he sort of let the press feel and let us all feel that yes indeed this might be just theater and he doesn't really want to deal particularly as battle stressed because johnson doesn't even have a majority in parliament so even if you would have something to take back to london would get a majority nobody knows large amounts of frustration here on the european side so talks further forward what happens now. that is the 1000000 pound question boris johnson is going back to london and the funny thing is that after this one feels that what why did he even come what did he want to do in luxembourg he just wanted to show sort of marginal bit of goodwill sort of yes we did sit down and talk but then i didn't have anything to offer so this release throws in doubt his sincerity that he really does want
6:05 pm
a deal now rumor has it in london that he would not come up with any details for a concrete solution for it breaks a deal particularly the irish banks up until tory party conference that is the end of this month now after that they'll be only about 2 weeks left until the final and essential e.u. summit so is that going to work the answer must be you know if you listen to here today you really feel it in your heart and in your bones that the answer is going to be no. luxembourg thank you. turkish president resit tired one has welcomed his russian and iranian counterparts and ankara for a summit on the syrian regime's push on the final rebel. fighting a potent rouhani he supports syrian president bashar al assad's offensive which is good momentum over recent weeks president obama's concern that the fighting will cause a renewed influx of refugees into turkey it's
6:06 pm
a huge army has observation posts in it live to enforce a buffer zone agreed on last year but syrian forces continue to advance with the help of russian asterix. correspondent you're han in istanbul cannatella small i welcome you here so what is the turkish president want to achieve. well as we speak the 3 leaders are holding a press conference and present edwin just said that the situation for refugees inside live was on the agenda today his main concern is that the onslaught in it led will calls another refugee crisis $3.00 to $4000000.00 people are currently trapped in a province that's about the population of berlin the german capital to give you an idea of you know the dimension of the crisis we are talking about but in recent months the syrian army with the russian air support has been pounding targets in it
6:07 pm
they say they are targeting terrorists but civilian targets hospitals have been targeted as well reportedly so this is all despite a series of cease fires and despite a key buffer zone deal reached between present edwin and president putin last year though so the question really is what kind of influence does turkey still have yet politically militarily to prevent this final offensive by the assad regime on little it seems right now so mr adams focus is on the humanitarian dimension and his message is clear he says turkey already hosts more than 3600000 refugees and it cannot take in more people. he's threatened to open the floodgates and let syrian refugees into europe a threat is made how seriously you take. time. well
6:08 pm
just imagine there are a 1000000 desperate people trying to storm the turkish border because they want to save their lives so turkey will probably have to react then and soon it'll its troubles could be europe's troubles too but why has added on you such an aggressive language when trying to get his message across to the europeans this is also because he has come under creasing pressure domestically the refugee issue here in turkey over the past 8 years has really hurt him politically people are very much against hosting more refugees and the refugee sentiment has been growing we've talked to people here on the streets in istanbul just let's listen in what they have to tell us to came in. turkey called host more refugees from syria we've reached our limit. needed more young people are dying while fighting in syria but what are young syrians doing they just sit around here and smoke shisha is this fair and right. we have to take care of the refugees they're muslims like us it's
6:09 pm
our responsibility they've lost their homes their savings and on are we have to help. them to keep unemployment is a big problem a lot of young people unemployed even university graduates can't find jobs we should take care of our own citizens 1st then we can look after the others. are upset that i now see signs in arabic everywhere i think we've started to lose our national identity there he set. about to yulia han and. you know what assurances can you realistically expect from russia and iran on a sustained pace that it needs live. well expectations for a lasting outcome from this summit are low and this is of course due to the fact that the 3 presidents meeting today in stand on opposing sides of this conflict iran and russia all staunch supporters of president bashar al assad while turkey
6:10 pm
was seeking his ouster and has been supporting the opposition this of course makes things very messy on the ground we'll hear commitments to peace we'll hear commitments to building a political solution to writing a constitution for syria but what exactly will this mean for the situation on the ground that's the huge question that will probably remain even after today leon in istanbul thank you. and i will take a look at some of the other stories making news around the world a sea of candles that was left was a ceremony in central warsaw to one of the more than 22000 the polish officers executed by the soviet red army in 1040 had been imprisoned after the soviet union invaded poland in 1939 while the polish on it was still fighting hitler's troops for decades the soviets have blamed the nazis for the massacre. police in indonesia
6:11 pm
say they have arrested 185 people suspected of starting the forest fires that are spreading a thick noxious haze over southeast asia and which triggered diplomatic tensions with indonesia's neighbors as a used every year to clear forests for palm oil and pulp and paper plantations in the country. but 2 days of heavy rains caused chaos in a tourist island in the gulf of thailand rough seas and strong currents and led to the suspension of ferry crossings to be on and of coach on but authorities say the water levels are now subsiding to ensure monsoon rains have killed more than 30 people across thailand since the end of august. israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu has promised to addicks all settlements in the occupied west bank as he seeks to boost turned out amongst his conservative base in the run up to tomorrow's closely fought election it's being held because mr netanyahu has been unable to form a governing coalition since the 1st election in april his main opponent benny gantz
6:12 pm
has also been mobilizing to support the w.'s ton of crime reports. for the 2nd time in the year newly it runs this family owned cafe will be casting his ballot he hopes that benyamin netanyahu will from the next coalition government bibi as everyone calls to prime minister some time stops by for coffee and pastry at this neighborhood cafe like many other likud supporters said if you see snow i'll turn it if to the long serving leader. live in a demolition the man has experienced and this is extremely important it's very important for people here to have someone to run the state as he does it a state like israel with so many challenges and having good relations with world leaders all around the world. following the last election in april netanyahu failed to put a coalition together some analysts describe the elections as
6:13 pm
a fight for his political life not least because of corruption allegations these elections are not about any policy issue at all these elections are shakespear are there to be be or not to be that it will continue to happen even though there are 3 of criminal investigations hanging over his heard he has proven inability to overcome any obstacle before and he'll be able to do that again now. his main rival benny gantz head of the center of i.q. and right party emerged as a real threat to netanyahu in the previous election touring the country like here in southern israel guns who served as military chief under netanyahu once 23. boaters with a security record and a different common leadership. this appeals to would. she would like to see a less self-centered prime minister and a more centrist less religious coalition government i need us then i am voting for
6:14 pm
benny gantz and his entire team and the party itself because they are politically in the center so they all have clean hands. they care about the general public now because. in some make a couple. pollsters predict a tight race netanyahu is fighting for every vote and he's not shying away from making election promises his pledge to annex settlements in the jordan valley in the occupied west bank if reelected has triggered heavy criticism abroad taunted as elections spin in israel it remains to be seen whether it's ways more voters of the smaller rightwing parties to the recruit most people are very cynical about these promises including the right wing who are in favor of annexation they're saying well you've been prime minister for 13 years. now and you're telling us a week before the elections suddenly there is a historic opportunity to do this at the cafe all eyes are on election day
6:15 pm
everybody here knows that there's a real power struggle with begins over a coalition building by the day after. it's the 2nd time in a year that israelis are going to the polls this tuesday traditionally security and economic issues are top priority. but these elections are seen as a kind of her friend on the longstanding prime minister benyamin netanyahu and whether he will be able to form a coalition. reporting our u.s. president donald trump says his country could respond militarily to drone attacks on major saudi arabian oil. mr trump tweeted that the u.s. was locked and loaded rebels based in yemen have claimed responsibility for the attacks but washington blames iran. these oil tanks are exhibit a as the world tries to assess who was responsible for attacks on saudi facilities they show
6:16 pm
almost identical impact points which u.s. officials say indicate a high degree of sophistication in the attack. the rebels in saudi arabia's neighbor yemen and usually seem to take responsibility they've been fighting the saudis and their proxy forces for years in yemen civil war. but some analysts doubt whether the rebels could have launched drones or missiles that could hit the saudi tanks yemen is also to the south of the saudi refineries the impact site suggest an attack from the north or northwest the direction of iraq and the who these strong backers iran secretary of state mike pompei oh said the u.s. would make sure quote iran is held accountable for its aggression and his boss president donald trump took to twitter to threaten those responsible he tweeted there is reason to believe that we know the culprit we are locked and loaded depending on verification but are waiting to hear from the kingdom. but iran
6:17 pm
deflected blame. we reject these types of statements and projections. the islamic republic of iran has clearly declared that it supports the people of yemen and their rights but to accuse the islamic republic of iran with these attacks and defensive measures is in line with the united states maximum falshood policy they've adopted after their own failures has. oil prices spiked as traders start to take account of saudi arabia's seeming inability to defend its crucial oil infrastructure and governments including germany's have condemned the attack but it's unclear what the long term picture looks like everything depends on what the us and other players do next to calm or aggravate the situation in one of the world's most volatile regions. straight to washington then for moral mission to w corresponded to all of a sudden welcome to all of us tell us more about the united states reasons for believing iran is behind this attack rather than the rebels who say they did
6:18 pm
well today the saudi led coalition provided information saying they believe it was the iranian weapons used to reign in drones in fact flown from the direction off iran on this saudi arabian oil refinery and some satellite footage that the u.s. provided yesterday suggests the same that said the special envoy for yemen off the united nations still has some dollars he said it's not 100 percent clear yet whether iran is behind these attack technically these weapons could have delivered could have been delivered to who the rebels as well and that has to be clarified by the saudi led coalition therefore also agrees that they would continue to investigate what they're trying to focus on right now is to make clear from we are exactly these drones were launched. 3 in addition to that the president already
6:19 pm
yesterday said the u.s. is locked and loaded but of course it's not clear yet whether he means military retaliation or if it's just part of his maximum pressure rhetoric because there's so much poison in june the present threat military action against iran when the revolution we go shut down a u.s. drone and then he holds to be a tox so should we tell you he's threats more seriously this tony. well this is a very unpredictable of president as we know and he's always up for surprises so it's completely difficult and unclear how he will move on from this let's not forget what he really wants to achieve what's what's at the core of this conflict between the united states and iran is the nuclear deal that president trump wants to renegotiate he wants to force iran back to the negotiating table to reach a deal that he believes would prevent from you run from working on nuclear weapons
6:20 pm
now as president rouhani ruled that out under these circumstances and of course it would be even more unlikely if there would be any military intervention so what we're seeing here is president trump raising the stakes of course trying to negotiate with his maximum pressure strategy but he has not been very successful with this so far so how does locked and loaded into u.s. middle east policy after john bolton's dismissal of his national security adviser were clearly lacking a strategy here we've just witnessed national security adviser john bolton as you mentioned who had a very hawkish position on iran who was an avid supporter of military intervention in retaliation strikes we just witnessed him being let go so that was actually rather a conciliatory message towards iran on the one hand side we do now hear retaliation threat so it's
6:21 pm
a big back and forth between diplomacy and threats and that causes a lot of confusion even with within president trump's own ranks but let's not forget he does not want to get the country into a war that was one of his core election promises of 2016 all of his knowledge in washington thank you. now the company behind the painkiller the heart of the u.s. opioid crisis has filed for bankruptcy to farm which makes oxycontin has announced a $10000000000.00 plan to settle thousands of lawsuits that accuse the drug manufacturer of playing a mickey role in the crisis. the graves bear witness to a tragedy every 11 minutes someone in the us dies from an opioid overdose 400000 victims in the last 20 years. over 2000 lawsuits including actions from nearly all u.s. states and many local governments accused of faulty promoting oxycontin by downplaying
6:22 pm
the risk of addiction. last week per 2 reached a deal to settle most of the lawsuits with u.s. federal states it allows the company's assets to be sold to provide over $10000000000.00 to address the opioid crisis but many states still oppose the settlement. half the states have dad agreed to the settlement with produce and many of them are expected to object throughout the bankruptcy process which could make it longer than it would be otherwise a bankruptcy can take months or even years even without serious objections. the deal is to protect per view on its owners the soccer family from lawsuits but other clouds loom the new york attorney general's office has tracked $1000000000.00 in wire transfers including through swiss bank accounts suggesting the suckers tried to shield wealth. 1st results from his presidential election show 2
