to continue to have to europe's society to root and regulatory modelling do future hall would seek to dies. there is no need for a free trade agreement to involve accepting e.u. rules on competition policy subsidies so. protection the environment or anything similar any more than the e.u. should be obliged to accept u.k. the stage is set lots of hardline ridiculous get you more on these are diametrically opposed perspectives in london burg it's mass and in brussels again for you want to start in london if i may with you better get a promise of course just in playing hardball it seems a sounding very confrontational even hinting that he might walk away from talks with the e.u. if he doesn't agree to you rather doesn't use agree to the u.k. so demands is he just bluffing is this part of a pretty detailed kind of negotiation tactic or is he serious.
6:08 pm
well we've really seen a shifting and the u.k. government's position on this whereas during the referendum campaign there was talk about more or less free access to the single market and it shifted to frictionless as possible and now it seems that the prime minister is saying well if we can't have the deal that we want which is a free trade deal of canada style then it's actually ok and then we can just accept no deal so similary the government is also prepared businesses for some friction so it does seem that the government is serious and that for them the political gains of threats it that they are more important than any economic tradeoffs that they might have to make gay or back to you in brussels of course we saw lots of love declarations last week but is the e.u. receptive to mr johnson's demands this week. i would say to you has been
6:09 pm
receptive all along for u.k. demands many times you really go shaders have told us that they have taken note of the red lines they have taken note of for the u.k. ones but over and over again they have to explain what conditions this comes and you see that the difficult situation you find itself in this is that they want an ambitious trade deal they want a close relationship you just have to read through the political declarations just a couple of pages where it's all written down the problem is that the most ambitious relationship is the one they had and soldiered on to work on this new one they need a partner who wants to play ball. that brings me back to you what are some of the issues that london is not prepared to negotiate on. well boris johnson wants to be seen as somebody who's fright fighting for the rights of the u.k. for the independence they want to make the most of bricks and they are arguing

6:11 pm
conference that he wants 0 tariffs on both sides but that comes at a cost and the cost is that standards needs to be applied standards need to be applied in the u.k. and particularly those standards need to be checked by some form of i thought you know it's no longer the european court of justice but you need to create some other form of organisation that makes sure that everybody plays by the rules no state subsidies is another example but that is something that the boris johnson today has simply ruled out that he says will not take place all right we're in for a long 11 months i thank you both for your team coverage in london very good mass and garrick mattress in brussels. next we turn our attention to syria turkey's president russia type everyone says the turkish military has quote neutralized dozens of syrian government troops in retaliation for an attack on turkish forces in syria now says 5 turkish soldiers were killed in the syrian attack an adlib
