this is you don't reduce life for berlin world leaders welcome the death of the leader of islamic state or al baghdadi died during a raid by u.s. special forces on his hideout in northwestern syria according to president donald trump the many conscient that even with the dodgy dead so-called islamic state still poses a threat also coming up the voting for change in argentina a center left candidate alberto fernandez and with us the presidential election in the 1st round and of germany's far right party surges forward in

a state election it's a bruising defeat for chance america's party knocked down into the birthplace of. our little rock it's great to have you along everyone or we begin with some news just coming in from brussels the european union has agreed to postpone britain's departure from the block for up to 3 months in a tweet european council president donald tusk says the remaining $27.00 member states of accepted the u.k.'s request for an extension to bragg's it until january 31st next year. we can take you now to brussels to our correspondent there barbara they so barbara good to have you with us the official word for this is flex tension that the e.u. has granted the u.k.

what is a flex tension with flex tension is an extension by different means that is if the u.k. should manage to push the brics deal through parliament and it will then be ratified by also the european parliament and everybody else britain could leave that is always to the 1st of the next months that is on december 1st of course or general 1st or the night before hand as you like so it means that france has finally given up their resistance to this as everybody knew there would because it to be honest this was just a lot of political postering from paris they want to flex their muscle towards london and say you know you have to play ball with as if you want us to play ball with you but now the french side says we're satisfied that britain is on the way to new elections and that has always been one of the main reason serious reasons to grant the brics an extension so at the end of the day everybody is happy but it's

putting the e.u. of course again on the back foot it's giving the british prime minister some breathing space but the ball is now again back in westminster's court. definitely and firmly so because what you can do from now on is just sit here and twiddle their thumbs because westminster now has to figure out how to move towards elections we know that they had 2 ways there is the one law that would sort of grand new elections you needed 2 thirds majority boris johnson has tried that twice he wants to try to get in later in the afternoon and has failed because labor does not want to do it they're scared because they're back on the in the polls and there is another way to force a new elections and we have seen over the weekend the liberals and the scottish s. and p. say we might be willing to support boris johnson in that and that works with the single majority it's

a bit more dangerous because then the the so if. they've modified the could they could modify the law and change the rules for the elections but still if they are on the way towards it it's not quite clear when it will happen and how but in the end there's going to be one in britain in london and britain will go to the polls all right barbara raise of reporting from brussels on the flecks tension thank you . next hour world leaders have welcomed us president donald trump's announcement that the leader of the so-called islamic state. was killed in a raid by u.s. special forces in syria tom said but daddy blew himself up as u.s. troops stormed his hideout but british prime minister boris johnson while welcoming baghdad his death cautioned that the fight against islamic states was not yet over other world leaders have echoed mr johnson's remark. so far from east 90 for iraq

and so close to turkey need the village berisha in series know the province of the world's most wanted man met his demise little remains of the i a scythe house in which i have a back i'll bet god he spent his last i guess he much of his family plus plus followers died during u.s. special forces a fraction. of my house and saw a helicopter in front of me no more than 15 meters in the air and another one right behind it there were no shots fired at 1st and then suddenly there was gunfire and the helicopter began firing back. saying the operation from the white house situation room with donald trump and he's top military commanders in the dramatic address the u.s. president said that gotti had died quite like a dog blowing himself and his children up he ignited his vest killing himself and the 3 children whose body was mutilated by the blast test results gave certain immediate and totally positive identification

now back that his demise is a further blow to the so-called islamic state that once controlled a tear tree the size of britain now the man who proclaimed a state and the land itself of both being lost but the terror group left behind thousands of victims and shattered lives the city in which al baghdadi proclaimed his calaf that most so he's now. his 10 years a fraction of the sins and misdeeds wrought on the victims who lost their lives in the old city area. who here their bodies are still under the rubble because of him and his organization. and this fight isn't over our baghdad his death was announced a joint kodesh u.s. operation targeted and i spokesman the man considered

a potential future leader of the group he's also reported dead but even now over 10000 eyes militants remain to jihad and vengeance. all right and we continue now to our middle east correspondent bason our reading he joins us from beirut where he is closely monitoring reaction say in the region the best what has the reaction been to the death of the man who unleashed a brutal reign of terror across iraq and syria mourning the actually don't have official the actions especially from syria 1st of all the operation took place in north west of syria. also going to a new speakers today focused on 3 many poles the continuous off the syrian army deployment in north. georgia borders 2nd the national budget

and the getting it was in mean my notes in the newspapers we don't have any official statement from the. u.s. on the other to be likely on the streets that the people off you. the help they hope this will one of the loveliest in the simplicity of the middle east especially in syria now a president shop has been touting this as a very big when. do the factions in syria who are helped with this operation do they feel the same way as mr trump. in fact as i said they don't have official statements going to some opposition syrian opposition sources they said. no. it's so obvious

that it's a huge loss for the always this but on the other hand we still have the sleeping says what's called the lone wolves the outrage that they say they're calling both. says will just go on which might do any kind of. action to do that kind of revenge action although patients it's to be looked at through the resources from p.s. the company would open in took place. in north north syria mainly in. just up close which that the beginning the deputy of name a name. has on. that he's the deputy a flood it seems as well the spokesman oh it won't be this. right a middle east correspondent vessel that i really thank you so much for your reporting

we want to find out about some of the other stories making news around the world. almost 200000 people have been ordered to leave their homes as wildfires spread through norden california's wine country all strong winds are fanning the flames and a statewide emergency has been declared california's governor said officials were using every source available resource rather available to respond to the fires. fodor's a columbia's capital bogota have elected a woman as mayor for the 1st time cloudy on the pegs who is also openly gay one about 35 percent of the vote the position of go with the mayor is widely considered to be the 2nd most important political post after the presidency. and saying a lot in america was an election dominated by one issue a grinding economic crisis and now voters in argentina are pinning their hopes on

a little new leader i'll bet often on this from the center left with almost all votes counted fernandez has 48 percent giving him an outright victory over the incumbent body so marcie. that. argentina's next president knows how to attract the crowds. i'll bet if a man does cheered on by thousands of his supporters in buenos aires. he's clear on his plan for the presidency. that is where we are of course going to work together as closely as possible. because the only thing that will concern us is stopping the suffering of argentinians once and for all. it's a return to power in a sense and left also making a comeback this time as vice president cristina fernandez de. she has self was president for 8 years. finn and his choice of running mate split opinion among the

population but kitchenette doesn't see it dividing the country not really a monolith not only today i'll bet it's president of all argentinian. striking a similarly unifying tone outgoing president mauricio mccree thanking supporters as he conceded defeat. this is for argentina an orderly transition that will bring stability to argentinians because the most important thing is the future leaders. will remain president until december the time but handover talks with his successor will start immediately he's invited to shannon does for a breakfast meeting at the presidential palace on monday. and earlier to. give us her assessment or fernandez's victory today argentina chose to change

looking for a way out of the crippling economic crisis the country turned back to populism alberta fernandez and his running mate ex-president christine ephron and the kid no one by a narrow margin than expected but still managed to avoid a runoff election and is very passionate 1st speech as president elect ferdinand has called for unity and admitted that economic * recovery would be an uphill battle he asked for all argentineans to stand together and build a future based on equality and solidarity tomorrow morning he will meet up with the incumbent with mari steel mockery and set up a plan for a smooth and calm transition while everybody in the world is wondering what this will mean for the country's economy how markets really respond to this result the people around me here they couldn't care less for them today marks the day they took back power and they took their destiny into their own hands. they're reporting

from scientists in argentina and with me now here on the set as my colleagues are going to from our latin america desk have you always great to have you here want to get your take on who is mr alberto fernandez well the name might not ring a bell internationally but he certainly is a well known man in argentina he has a very classic profile out say for a politician he is a lawyer he has some experience in the financial services sector and he served. as of chief of staff in 2 governments the one of mr tisha and cristina fernandez the kitchen we just saw so that means he knows his ways around the argentinean politics for sure the fact that he served in those governments of course makes us assume that he will have more left directed to government of an interventionist government for sure but that is a task that will be for sure very difficult how it will you just you mentioned her name let's talk about the so-called comeback a clean former president former 1st lady and political fixture in argentina of

course i'm talking about christopher down the secure center not a relation of mr fernandez she joined forces with alberto fernandez what can you tell us about this alliance well at the time it was seen as a very smart move and now we know it definitely worked now do you see nothing under the kitchen as we saw is a deeply polarizing figure she knows that so it was smart to pick someone who is known as someone who can negotiate who is perhaps more relatable to a broader part of the population the problem is and this is very important that many people think he is going to be a puppet of cristina fernandez the kitchen he has distanced himself from the kitchen as before by founding his own party after serving in their governments and most importantly he will have to proceed with extreme caution when it comes to his relation to christine often on this because let's not forget and this is very important that she is accused of at least 811 cases of corruption so it is not completely impossible that we will see the argentinian vice president in jail

during the tenure so maybe it was a smart move or maybe it was a warrant for us to handle in his government now mr fernandes is he demand who can cure argentina has economic malaise well that is literally the $1000000.00 question probably he will be someone who can negotiate which is very important because he has pledged to make sort of a big deal combining the private sector and the union. for example and of course also the government institutions to buy some time for the argentinian economy argentina desperately needs to attract direct foreign investment in order to diversify the economy but that can only happen with time a time that i'll bet modi so markley the current president did not have clearly argentinians were not patient enough for him to actually implement reforms and argentineans will definitely take to the streets very soon if that does not work so his idea is to you know deal with everyone negotiate it one bring everyone in but

he is in a very polarized country with very impatient people that mr is an optical very briefly if you can have your what is at the root of the political problems in argentina and do they mirror what's happening elsewhere well i would even dare to say that the region is nearing argentina argentinians have taken to the streets for years now and the problem is that polarization no one concedes that the other side can have a good idea so they just simply roll back everything that the administration before them did sort of thing in the end does not agree on anything and that is perhaps the most important part problem to put it very simply to have a i get us thank you so much for your analysis greatly appreciate it. and here in germany voters have flocked to the far right party in a regional election in the eastern state of the range of the party more than doubled its vote although it came 2nd to the left party which will now try to form a coalition government under the americal conservative c.d.u.

party took a battering they came in 3rd. was scenes of jubilation at the left party headquarters the socialists achieved their best result ever topping a state election for the 1st time this sadly a strong left party is simply the best thing for this state it was a good result for the far left party led by popular prem yeah. but if i'm a lowe's current governing coalition or an alliance with the social democrat s.p.d. party and the greens can't continue as it is the other 2 parties center of left lost considerable ground and up a big when i was the alternative for germany party or a f.t. the far right party is considered particularly radical and. the parties that are in gelida b.n. hooka struck a particularly nationalist tarn which won the party 2nd place. the stuff the old system is now being swept away my friends we're now going to take

back our country. though. that was disappointment for the conservatives or c.d.u. party chancellor angela merkel's party came in behind the f.t. and 3rd place but isn't it a lot of doubts that it's a better day for the c.d.u. in 3 and better day for the she do you ensure money we fight together we win together and just like today we also lose together. mike mortaring cd use the ranger leader has already ruled out the idea of forming a coalition with either the far right or the far left this means forming a regional government will most likely be an extremely complicated task. more now with political correspondent hans bronx hans tells america's conservatives last very badly in this original election and the center left to s.p.d. didn't do well either what does this result mean if anything for america as

a governing coalition here in berlin well the grand coalition in germany here in berlin between the conservatives of. the social democrats has been struggling almost ever since it came into power and at the moment both parties are looking for new leadership a new direction i'm glad america is on her way out she's handed over to her success are on a great calm cover who's trying to establish her authority within the part of the party is trying to decide whether to move further to the left or further to the right a similar sort of development is happening amongst the social democrats at the moment both parties will continue in their government there will be some stability in government but in the background both parties. very deeply involved in internal discussions and leadership disputes and yes that will lead to some sort of instability or some sort of all shall i say insecurity in the government as

a whole right a lot of soul searching i'm guessing as well what if anything does this election outcome tell us about the political direction that germany is headed in. i think what you can see in this election and and also in other regional elections that have recently happened in germany is that the political landscape is becoming a lot more fractious these 2 major parties for conservatives and the social democrats that have dominated german politics for decades are no longer and the dominant position in state there are a large number of well a number of other parties of similar strength the greens the alternative for germany the right wing populist. left party in some areas and between these various parties finding coalitions that can govern either in the region or in germany as a whole is going to become a lot more difficult what is also very noticeable is a division in germany a division between east and west as we have seen in this election in an eastern

federal state which has shown a great great strength for the more radical edges of the political spectrum but there's also a strong division between urban and rule voters in urban areas properties such as the greens and issues such as climate change are a lot more important so much more fractious political landscape and much more difficulty in forming governments and is that how you explain why the c.d.u. and the s.p.d. for example are failing to connect with their constituents in east german states. yes i think in this station 3 range of that is particularly noticeable both of the left party which is follow follow a party to the former communist ruling party in eastern germany and the f.t. the far right populist party are both parties that. i attractive to east german voters who in some sense feel that they are 2nd class citizens in germany as

a whole that their interests are not being respected that their interests are not being mixed by the current government so these kinds of protest votes have gone both to the left and to ranger and to the right they have to in fact its entire campaign in that stage on these issues that affect people on. from eastern germany to deal with these political correspondent reporting hans thank you for. now in formula one lee was hamilton is closer to winning his 6 drivers' world title after claiming victory at the mexican concrete well the mercedes driver battled back from a poor start to the race to cross the line 1st for a well deserved victory still it wasn't enough for the brits to lock up the world championship the upcoming race in the u.s. will be his next chance to win it all. and
