the children who have always been the boy and those that will follow are part of a new process. they could be the future. granting opportunities global news that matters d. w. made minds. i don't think the. french a lot of countries in the central europe you've seen massive demonstrations protests demonstrations up to the prime minister to decide whether he wants to focus the 1st title on the belief in the independence of i'll do the fury with time running out for brussels in london to get a breath to deal with climbing through before all the blame on the britain if the negotiations fail my guest this week here in prague is the czech pharmacist but patricia he has surprisingly clear differences with the government he so why doesn't he resign.
10:31 am
come especially check welcome to complete so that you're much just a few days before britain is due to leave the european union force johnson says he wants deal to trust him saying that the options are still possible. for us if you don't answer the question too trusting. it's a little time to find an agreement. in the situation but there are troubling development in the u.k. there are some proposals on the table but time for negotiation is limited i notice you don't so you do trust him you will forgoing that option. he's willing to leave the few you result agreement for us and his mother good option but
10:32 am
if it is not able to find a compromise and have a majority in the and parliament for agreement i don't see you know it's now clear that if there's no deal this is likely to be considerable damage not just to britain but to the e.u. economies as well why do you sit in silence waiting for this slow motion car crash to happen without making your opinion felt and. easing the path to a deal because a deal is in your interest we we have been quite vocal that we want a deal but the ball is from the british side at the moment but in everyone's just on one side it is that. we have negotiated for a number of months or for more than a year about it and we meant which was how to find a compromise on the $27.00 side as well and now we are dealing with a situation that one side of us negotiating without clear support for doubt from
10:33 am
the negotiation and the ball is really on the on a pretty sight. we would like to see what are their proposals especially when it comes to backstop because this is the main challenge for us. you talked about divisions among leave 27 it was difficult to get a unified line here brussels always says you are absolutely in unity on the issue that's not true is it is true whether it was necessary to accommodate concerns of many member states before you reach that we meant last year and it was not an easy task for you want to go she is also to accommodate in interests and concerns of 4 member states like iran and of many others but you have for instance you have child michel who's the new european council president he wants. he says that no deal is better than a bad deal you have from the line is going to be the commission president she wants
10:34 am
to extend the deadline for britain so she would be willing to extend the article 15 a go sheesh so you do have divisions here you have to do some minor one maybe that's a milder this is for us for us it's also important that if u.k. wants to extend. the period for negotiations and that there are good reasons for that presented by by westminster let's consider it. are you content to blame britain put all the blame on britain if the negotiations because that's what russell's is leading towards that's what some podium has already said if things fail it will be the british british fault do you share sour blame for this. 1st of all i think that the blame game is something that is not contributing to face negotiation but that player that us is playing. 'd the game has been there let's try to limit the damage. that has been already caused by it as
10:35 am
blame game it is not to blame one side or one side only thing that for the for the sake of the women i think that we should be open. for the proposal from the other side let's discuss it with you 27 but it's important to keep the unity in the european union that's something that we have strive for you have been able to maintain the unity over the past year and it's important also to be prepared for. establishing relations between the book and u.k. after the exhibit. happened european industry european history is very nervous getting with us as we get down to the deadline also the citizens we have around 200000 people people living in newquay and so far they don't know what's going to happen they live in uncertainty and this is also not
10:36 am
a very positive part of the whole process come with a new features of warning about a seismic shift in trading conditions if it leaves with no deal and many of the chinese are so big can manufacture in europe. we are also concerned about the impact that's why we always supported the agreement but it does provide us a place to negotiate future relations between if you and including a trade relations between the block and great britain result of the result of the agreement we will get to the situation that you could becomes a sort of country from one want to. arming the relations causing a lot of problems to not only car manufacturers but for many other industries i understand would you say you mentioned the irish backstop which is the main stumbling block to getting an agreement are you happy that this one issue could talk paedo the whole deal between britain and the e.u.
10:37 am
is it really is it really worth brussels digging in its heels on this one but we should let me preclude the whole deal we shouldn't keep in mind the whole history of the island it is not possible to divide the island at the same time we need to make sure that we protect internal market and the best seller in billiton the good friday agreement and we are trying to to preserve the both and the backstop is the way how to preserve the books we don't want to return back before the friday agreement but this is very good if there's no deal you would jump the good friday agreement for you we also would have to. come up with some proposals there are some if it doesn't you know i will put up a border the e.u. will put up a board it's already said it would if there is a new deal there were billboards so that's why we also would like to see that. comes up with some proposals there are some currently discussed
10:38 am
a negotiated we are open to negotiations. but if things if things go badly are you seriously telling me that it's worth risking a return to the terrible violence that took place along with another man simply to preserve that option use mules what are other options simply the fact that the backstop is not because of. protecting the single market is also a way to preserve that there is more important it is also how to preserve the friday agreement is to protect you in the czech republic you have your own problems with the e.u. don't you you're part of the visit group which is known as the kind of awkward squad with poland hungary and slovakia you don't like quotas for irregular migrants you don't like the climate change policies you refused to sign up to the used 20500 carbon goal why. i don't think that the. french
10:39 am
a lot of countries in the center of europe 1st of all very active in your opinion on many issues why did you refuse to sign up to the climate bill the 28 is still negotiated. over about the need to have a strong climate and energy policy was in the european union we are meeting our obligations when it comes to part of the agreement at the same time we want to have a comprehensive approach to the dangerous troy's are you up to see it that the reality your prime minister bobbish has said to you is also on less than $101.00 tonnes of the global emissions you is not going to salvage the whole climate was all of us and let's let's use a little in this time to your prime minister mr bush has said why should we decide 31 years ahead of time what will happen in 2050 that's not a very helpful comment because if we don't decide now 25th it's going to look very
10:40 am
different than it might otherwise do and i agree that it is time to talk policies that will have impact until so that's a beautiful combine your prime minister is i agree that we need strong policies in this area 'd he does have the same time that we would like to have a rational realistic debate in who's going to get their way the prime minister or you with me on this prime minister is also part of the negotiations we are taking part of the solution they want to lead you have it doesn't want to reach any decisions now he says why should we take decisions 31 years ahead and he discussed this new president of the european commission about the climate change other partners in new europe he probably presented the position of my country that as an industrial explorer into the country would like to see that all the options at the town table will not to teach to the industry is ation loss of jobs we don't have we don't want to have. a jobless future. on migration as
10:41 am
far as the was concerned you've been equally unhelpful when it came to taking the share of the huge numbers of irregular migrants turning up at the borders you decided to because wasn't he you in 2017 you took just 12 of them other than the e.u. mandated quota of 2700 not 1200 you took just 12 and then your government said it wouldn't no longer comply just like hungary and just like poland why i want your help we're i'll pick you take the money from the e.u. you don't play by the rules of the we are giving a lot of money to prevent migration to solve some of the problems in the in the countries of origin or in from what's a lot of money 100000000 crowns. it's hundreds of millions to them in terms of millions of the computer resources all you have available it is under $4000000.00 euros a year no it is much more money we are now preparing project with germany
10:42 am
in morocco we have a project. in libya. giving hundreds of millions of check grounds for to a middle east north africa we have just 30 percent of the government libya have been a disaster haven't they minister because of the help we have results in its resulted in helping the libyan coast guard take people back to libya and put them in unacceptable conditions incarcerated in camps indefinitely being beaten up and sexually abused and that's thanks to the european union's policies. we using oil company think you're doing some good we have a very complicated situation in libya and largely to the 5 that it is from the stable internally divided country in conflict and international community has a very limited scope of how to operate in the country how to provide assistance to
10:43 am
refugees there at the same time there are many other. have been successful and that's. possible situation in middle east where we have been able to assist the refugees in jordan and lebanon and we have been able to assist internally displaced people in the cities in syria as well do you plan to go to mali don't you and we we also france and has said this is a country with an appalling human rights record last year they were accused by the human rights by human rights watch of committing atrocities that's the army in mali this is the government you're going to help we are going to help the people and use the money to get there directly or through the government we are 1st of all helping through the european mission that we would like to contribute as a physician through the government whose human rights record is pretty questionable we are not locating any funds directly for the government we would like to work with the people of his local communities we would like to work through
10:44 am
international organizations that are trying to stabilize the people that are affected by internal conflict in mali as well and we are also trying to help help the local to get basic security that's something that people really need to see this country report from freedom house asylum seekers to your country are routinely detained and conditions and conditions in detention centers are generally poor why why do people poor conditions the question probably for the ministry of interior now turning over some you have listed on the government haven't. done any and then stops in the process. the country has been. the destination for many of them. in the past especially from the east let's be clear there are not only movements from the south from the from africa often middle east but there are dozens of 1000 people coming to the opinion from the east from eastern europe from asia and only the last year we had 30000 nuclear incoming people from countries like ukraine
10:45 am
mongolia. and some to asia so that's also focused not only on 11 flow of flows and in this regard we are trying to have a regulated process through which we can allow people to get in freedom else also reported that xenophobia and t.v. a few g. rhetoric had been voiced by your prime minister and your president on how helpful is that it doesn't have put helpful i think that we need to fight any forms of can for bill but this is coming from senior members of your government in 2011 before becoming president this is a man labeled islam anti civilization and said there was no such thing as a moderate muslim just like there were no more sees that's that's that's quite a hateful comment as i'm a social democrat i understand and for me and i kind of intolerant so for be are
10:46 am
under semitism is a big problem about this in the case of my country only we have witnessed this trend across european union and we need to have a strategy how to fight it as well and so glad that i did on the government the obama. is now the commission the will have this in her portfolio that we will. take initiative on that on that issue the rise of. racism under semitism is a problem for the whole of europe union officials are you fighting you have a lot of got a lot of we have but let's be honest there's a little problem of my country only that's a problem of many countries when you have foreign minister of this country and i'm i'm not i'm putting to you about the czech republic and i'm not advocating. this kind of rhetoric for me it is not acceptable as a social democrat i believe that the politicians should give example to the people
10:47 am
that we cannot work together on on but a future on addressing the fears of the. was in the pollution and people. using this kind of rhetoric we talked about the climate issues we talked about the migration of the cause of tension with the e.u. is an occasions that you'll believe in their prime minister mr babich improperly received more than 17000000 euros in e.u. subsidies to the agra for business with which he has been both directly and directly connected and the e.u. audit allege significant conflicts of interest in his private business although he's said he doesn't think he's done anything wrong and he called the e.u. report an attack on the czech republic do you see that report is an attack on the czech republic or for the us is an attack on the country i thing that we should leave it to investigators to come up with final final findings. we we have
10:48 am
the ministries responsible have provided the information the european commission asked for i believe that everybody should be considered to. consider that the quote anything. but happened until it is proved by this standard and surging to your relations with the e.u. isnt it. i haven't been i haven't witnessed. any of my colleagues work what's happening. money even though they said no one who is not backing down on the charges despite the denials from the prime minister but the investigation is still ongoing something investigations are needed to be made is a position clear the. one case has been closed to recently by the prosecutors really. providing information to a pinpoint commission when it comes to out it's ordered so you are talking about
10:49 am
the domestic charges that were limited to being so domestic charges which are limited to the prosecutor dropped at the same time a european commission is still. continuing the problem issues 1st is refusing to let payments go from the e.u. budget under the fine structure to your final report is presented and the final report hasn't been presented when the proud prosecutor dropped the case against mr babich. he published an explanation of his decision half of it was blacked out what has he got to hide what has the government got to hide with this why do you offer girls of the nations of the public and the black half of it down to the point of that because. a superior prosecutor still lies in the outcome of their not suspicious about this. i'm believe in the independence of our judiciary i don't have any reason to
10:50 am
question it you're not. and at the moment are disappearing through the prosecutor is now studying the files and should come up or whether he's going to reconsider the decision or but i think that it is up to prosecution and in a prosecution should have a time to decide. through their 'd enjoyment of the says about the case you're also specious that 2 weeks after the police are committed charging someone asked he replaced i'll just is this is this is something this is public information until it is it is finally decided it is still part of the process in germany you don't you don't publish the cases before they are closed this has been put out in the press these accusations one accusations after another do you not think it's time that the prime minister who has denied all the accusations against him would step
10:51 am
aside to clear his name because this is taking up a lot of government time and you've seen massive demonstrations protest demonstrations against this in the capital biggest demonstrations here in prague 30 this is up to the prime minister to decide whether he wants to step aside i want your opinion as member of the junior partner in the coalition what's your sense of them about. several times so that it would be the best if. come up with. somebody who come. take the position until prime minister is saying you she's want him to step down and i think this is the question for the for the party for our coalition partner not for us to decide but you a senior member of the julia but of our agreement is that though we are not commenting on personal policies of caution partners the head of the odious opposition party the largest opposition group said he respected the prosecutor's
10:52 am
decision not to press charges but said the whole case leaves behind a bad taste and a divided society you would you're not doing you agree with do you. believe that. it leaves but say just. as i thought i believe that our judiciary a perfect jurist are full independent and if they come up with some decision that is our time of independent inquiry the influential financial times that the conflicts between mr babich is extensive business is and his role as prime minister a stain on czech democracy just to silvio berlusconi tarnished italy's reputation 2 decades ago i wonder how long you are prepared to sit in this coalition and have this stain on czech democracy alone do not get to a point where you consider your position a little better than the new you heard many rankings of our situation and improve
10:53 am
over the past year or so really improve on a roof or can corruption. not according to greco you haven't which is the kind of a view council of europe santy corruption body un the brutal on the country you have you seen any recommendations and said you haven't accepted any of that in many many. been confirmed progress we have started implementing the corruption strategy but up until that doesn't 18 and the president has been echo said your country is not ok but they're not you have many clients procedure noncompliance procedure but these procedures also take time to comply with some of them and also. applying our policy to play on that have been referred to international international committee but our whole point to go back to the question of what point do you consider your position and i can no longer serve in this government because i disagree with what's going on to supreme with what the
10:54 am
prime minister says the president said the president went back on earlier and said he had previously said he would never stop an investigation into mr bobbitt he changed his mind and said this is part of quite possible. this is speculation about what's going to happen after this is what he said but it's not how could not translated into a sense. goes back on his word directly elected president and that's up to the people to decide elections and what about and personal decision and what about doing what is outside what about and was the ultimate of them. could sustain opposition outside the government and i'm certain a government we will have what would you have what would it be you answer that question you asked the question of the big government supported by a populist and extremist forces and certainly not in the interest of my country that's why we probably heard the cost of this coalition at the same time as a social democracy we need to maintain and keep. the independence of judiciary we
10:55 am
need to be the guardian so it's going to be a fight with these charges isn't that all these charges other than some saying that we need to play the role of keepers and that are tough in the government i believe and still there hasn't been any final decision on any of the cases we are waiting for the for the outcome of the commissions of inquiry we're also waiting for the domestic cases to be finally closed until that. in the speculations which leaves a lot of but based. on just. a lot of pre-judgement. at the same time democrats say in the country of the 1st place rule of law you expect to wait until the court decides thomas petritsch thank you very much for being called thank you. because
