music animation the future of nigerian cinema. in 60 minutes. africa. your link to exceptional stories discussion. that is easy to our website comes to. join us on facebook. for. little thing the. french law focus on the central europe you've seen massive demonstrations protests demonstrations up to the prime minister to decide whether you want to focus the precise i'm believe in the independence so far i'll do the fury with time running out for brussels in london to get a feel for you with longing for the people of the blame on britain if only go by my guest this week here in prague is the czech foreign minister but. he has
5:31 pm
surprisingly clear differences with the government so why doesn't he resigned. from a special trip welcome to cope with so much just a few days before britain is due to leave the european union force johnson says he wants deal to trust him. orphans are still possible. for us if you don't answer the question do you trust think. it's a little time to find an agreement. in the situation but there is trouble and development in the u.k. there are some proposals on the table but time for negotiation is limited i know that you don't so you do trust him your foregoing that option. that he's willing
5:32 pm
to leave you if you will result agreement and for us and his mother good option but if it is not able to find a compromise and have a majority in and a problem for agreement i don't see any other person it's now clear that if there's no deal there's 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 that the ball is on the british side at the moment but in everyone's just on one side is it not we have negotiated for a number of months or for more than a year about it and we meant which was how to find
5:33 pm
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 dr come to negotiation and the ball is really on the british side we would like to see what are their proposals especially when it comes to backstop because so this is the main challenge for us. you talked about divisions among the 27 it was difficult to get a unified line here. brussels always says you're absolutely in unity on the issue that's not true is it is true. it was necessary to accommodate concerns of many member states before we reached the agreement last year and it was not an easy task for you want to go shitters or so to accommodate in interests and concerns of member states like i want but many others but you have for instance you have child
5:34 pm
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 new commission president she wants to extend the deadline for britain so she would be willing to extend the article 15 and go sheesh so you do have divisions here you have 2 divisions minor one maybe that's a milder for us for us it's also important that if u.k. wants to extend. the period for negotiations and 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 muscles is leading towards that's what some podium has already said if things fail it will be the british british fault do you share so i would blame for this. 1st of
5:35 pm
all i think that the blame game is something that is not contributing to face negotiation but the player that's is playing. the game has been there let's try to limit to the democrat. that the city already caused by it is 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 them you 27 but it's important to keep the unity in the european union that's something that we have to 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. happened the european industry european history is very nervous giving the us as we get down to the deadline also the citizens we have around 200000
5:36 pm
people people living in newquay and so far they really don't know what's going to happen they live in assets and this is also not a very positive part of the whole process can one of the futures of warning about a seismic shift in trading conditions if it leaves with no deal and many of the chinese herbs or will become manufactured in europe we are also concerned about the impact that's why we always supported women to. but it does provide us a place to negotiate future relations between you and u.k. including a trade relations between the block and great britain result of the result of the agreement we will get to the situation that becomes our sort of country from one moment to. arming the relations causing a lot of problems to not only car manufacturers but for many other industries i understand what you're saying you mentioned the irish backstop which is the main
5:37 pm
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. is it really is really worth brussels digging in its heels on this one but we should be presented a whole deal we should 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 that's why we're important in 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 early if there's no deal you would jump the good friday agreement for you we also it would have to. come up with some proposals there us and if it doesn't you i will put up a border the e.u. will put up a board has already said it will if there is a new deal there will be
5:38 pm
a bonus so that's why we also would like to see that come up with some proposals there are some currently discussed a negotiated we are open to negotiations but these things if things go badly are you seriously telling me that it's worth risking a return to the terrible violence that took place a little more than simply to preserve our lose mules what are the other options. essentially the facts are the backstop is not because of. protecting the single market there's also a way to preserve that there is also important it is also how to preserve the friday agreement was to protect you in the czech republic you have your own problems with the 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
5:39 pm
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 glop 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 go the 28 is still negotiated. over about the need to have a strong climate and energy policy 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. dangerous troy's europe to see it that the reality your prime minister bobbish has said he was also on less than 10 that one turns of the global emissions you is not going to salvage the whole climate was all of us and let's. use a little in this time to your prime minister mr bush has said why should we decide
5:40 pm
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 is going to look very different believe it otherwise do and i agree that it is time to talk policies that will have impact until so that's the full kamaelia prime minister is i agree that we need strong policies in this area 'd he does in the same time that we would like to have a rational realistic debate in who is going to get their way the prime minister or you on this prime minister is also part of the negotiations we are taking part of the solution that want to read you haven't 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 research other partners in new york 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
5:41 pm
town table will not and each to then destroy his ation loss of jobs. we don't have we don't want to have. a drop less future. on migration as far as the was concerned you've been equally unhelpful when it came to taking the share of the huge numbers of the regular migrants turning up at the borders you decided this wasn't he you in 2017 you took just 12 of them out of 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 countries of origin or in trying to put a lot of money 100000000 crowns. its hundreds of millions of dollars of 1000000.
5:42 pm
computer resources all you have available just under $4000000.00 euros a year no it's much more money we are now preparing project with germany in morocco we have a project. in libya. annually giving hundreds of millions of check ground to a middle east north africa we have just the sense that out 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 an acceptable 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 are doing something good here we have a very complicated situation in libya and largely to the favor it is from a stable internal divided country in conflict and international community has
5:43 pm
a very limited scope of how to operate in the country how to provide assistance to refugees there at the same time there are many other. we 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 a serious well you plan to be out in mali don't you and we are we also spent 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 'd are going to help now we are going to help the people and how is 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 in the 1st go through the government has human rights record is pretty questionable we are
5:44 pm
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 'd through 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 said asylum seekers to your country are routinely detained and conditions and conditions in detention centers are generally poor why why do people with poor conditions the question probably for the ministry of interior now tell her that you haven't stolen the government haven't. done any and steps 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
5:45 pm
from the from a flick of a middle east but dozens of 1000 people coming to the opinion from the east from eastern europe from asia and only the last year you had such a 1000 new cut incoming people from countries like ukraine mongolia central some to asia so that's also focus not only on $11.00 flow of flows and in this regard we're trying to have a regulated process through which we can allow people to get freedom house also reported that xenophobia and t.v. refugee rhetoric had been voiced by your prime minister and your president on how helpful is that they didn'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 sit there with no such thing as
5:46 pm
a moderate muslim just like there were no moderate nazis that's that's that's quite a hateful comment as i'm a social democrat i understand me and for me and i kind of intolerant so for be 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 to obama. is not a commission the will have this in the hopper for the or that we will. take initiative on that on that issue the rise of. racism under some of them 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 i think many countries when you were foreign minister of this country and i'm i'm i'm getting to you about the czech republic and i'm not advocating. this
5:47 pm
kind of rhetoric for me it is not acceptable as a social democrat i believe that the politicians should give example to people that we cannot work together on on but a future on our dressing the few years that. was in the pollution and people. using this kind of rhetoric we talked about the climate issues we took to the migration another cause of tension with the e.u. is allegations 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 indirectly connected in 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 as an attack on the
5:48 pm
czech republic or for the us as an attack on the country i thing that we should leave it to investigators to come up with a final final findings. we we have the ministries responsible have provided the information the european commission asked for i believe that everybody should be considered to. consider that the anything bad happened until it is proved by this standard and searching to your relations with the e.u. isnt it. i haven't been i haven't witnessed. any of my colleagues what was happening. money even though this isn't new it's been like the blood backing down on the charges despite the denials from the prime minister about the investigation is still ongoing some investigations are needed to be made is the position clear
5:49 pm
but one case has been closed to recently by the prosecutors really. providing information to a pain clinic commission when it comes to. its ordered so you are talking about the domestic charges that were going to be so domestic charges we salute to the prosecutor dropped at the same time a european commission is still. continuing the problem is she says is refusing to let payments go from the e.u. budget until the fine structure yeah after your final report is presented and the final report hasn't been presented when leapfrogged 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 with notions of the public and the black half of it down to the point of that because the. a superior
5:50 pm
prosecutor still lies in the outcome of the not suspicious about this. i'm believe in the independence of our judiciary i don't have any reason to question it you're not. and at the moment are the superior to the prosecutor is now studying the files and should come up or whether he's going to reconsider the decision or. i think that it is up to prosecution and independent prosecution should have a time to decide. through their 'd internal probes or says about the case you're all suspicious that 2 weeks after the police committed the charges and i ask the replace i don't just is this is this is something this is public information until it is it is finally decided it is still part of. your process in germany you don't you don't publish the cases before they are closed this has been put out in
5:51 pm
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 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. this is up to the prime minister to decide whether he wants to step aside what's 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 and or come up with. somebody who come. take the position until 'd prime minister is saying you should want him to step down and i think this is the question for the for the party for a coalition partner not for us to decide much of a senior member of the junior but of our agreement is that though we are not
5:52 pm
commenting on personal policies of caution partners the head of the odious opposition party the largest opposition group said he respected the prosecutor's decision not to press charges but said the whole case leaves behind a bad taste and a divided society you you're not doing you agree with do you. lose that. it leaves but chased but as i started i believe that the our judiciary they perfectly jurors are full independent and if they come up with some decision that is outcome of independent inquiry the influential financial terms of the conflicts between mr babbitt is extensive business is and his role as prime minister a stain on check 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
5:53 pm
this stain on chip democracy and not do not get to a point where you consider your position lower than the near her for many rankings where our situation is improved over the past year. so really improve on a rule for can corruption not according to greco you haven't said which is the kind of a view council of europe sent to corruption body un the brutal on the country you're going to have you seen many recommendations and said you haven't accepted any of that in many many. been confirmed progress we have started implementing the corruption strategy adopted into that doesn't 18 and the president has been echo said your country is not ok but they're not going to lie and this procedure noncompliance procedure but these procedures also take time to comply with some of them and also. applying our policy to play and that has been
5:54 pm
referred to international international community 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 the sky because i disagree with what's going on to supreme with what the 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. speculation about what's going to happen after this is what he said but it's not helping or to slay resident who says . go 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 i want to do what is outside what about and was the ultimate of them. state in opposition outside the company and i'm certain a government will have what would you have what would it be you answer the question you asked the question of the big government supported by a populist an extremist forces and certainly not in the interest of my country
5:55 pm
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. 'd the independence of judiciary we need to be the guardians of serbia fice with these charges isn't that all these charges other than some saying that we need to play the role of keepers and that's tough in the government i believe and 'd 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 that. lot of pre-judgement. at the same time a double cross
