10:07 am
lifted verbatim from a speech that michelle obama gave in 2008 so in the speech we got one of the rare mentions of the coded $1000.00 pandemic crisis in america and it was an expression of sympathy and care for people who might be going through some really hard times right now in terms of their health or losing their jobs so supporters will look at this speech and say look at the successful immigrant 1st lady although there is some controversy about her views when she 1st came but she expressed herself well she can cross is confident she made a strong case for donald trump to be reelected but there are critics who look at this speech and say this is just window dressing window dressing on the top administration's failures and dressing the code in 1000 pandemic and also she mentioned the nation should come together and heal from episodes of racial injustice that also might sound tone deaf from the wife of
10:08 am
a man who has been known to tweet out race this tweets and stoke racial tensions in america right now tell us a little bit more about some of the other messages as well because we have the u.s. secretary of state mike pompei. also speaking yesterday a speech that was widely condemned was that it was for breaking long term norms and traditions this is the 1st time in around 75 years that a sitting secretary of state has spoken at a national political convention also he did it from jerusalem a controversial city and seen as props a prop from his office being used politically and the house foreign relations committee has in fact open investigation to see if the speech was potentially an ethical and illegal there's a law called the hatch act that prohibits federal employees from engaging in political activities while they're in office so there's that when you look at the speech itself it wasn't that controversial is some of the greatest hits that he's put out about the term foreign policy tough on china he lauded the moving of the
10:09 am
embassy to jerusalem and also the normalization of ties between the united arab emirates and israel so. you know he is it was controversial but. it's kind of just what the administration is doing at right now breaking norms when we sift through all of the messages that we have heard so far tell us i mean is this striking the right note with his base is it striking the right note with potentially undecided voters of america overall how do you think people are digesting this i think it was a night's targeted toward those undecided voters when you watched the entire convention last night or you know and to say it was basically trying to show a big tent party a party where black americans are welcome where americans are welcome where immigrants are welcome where women are welcome and there were moments that showed.
10:10 am
people coming together and overcoming criminal justice wrongs there was a naturalization ceremony stuns people might say but to an undecided voter who might be turned off by terms brash style and. some of the ways that he's stoked anger in america they may look at these moments and say yeah this is the kind or softer party that i want to be a part of it's still too early to tell though joe biden is leading by quite a bit and several swing states the trump flips the last election so we're really still thinking of the campaign season we'll have to wait and see but a very interesting time between now and november indeed michele stockman thank you . closer look at some other stories making news around the world the u.n. security council has blocked a bid by washington to reimpose sanctions on iran in a video conference the council's president said that there was a lack of consensus in the u.s. highest body over u.s. strategy on iraq 13 of the 15 council members to the u.n.

reserves buried beneath the sea that. a greek fighter jet touches down on the island of cyprus athens launched 3 days of military exercises in the eastern mediterranean after turkey extended a mission to search for oil and gas reserves in waters came by greece now and chris conducting its own naval exercises in the region. chairman foreign minister. warned that the 2 countries are playing with fire here to both sides to find a solution through dialogue but if we have warships holding naval drills and conducting exercises with live ammunition then we find ourselves in a phase where a mere accident could lead to a military escalation. masses engaged in a delicate diplomatic balancing act to see tries to bring both sides to the table. before as we speak turkey continues to act illegally to escalate to provoke despite

the urging of its neighbors partners and allies 3 inches from. the turkish research vessel or a tries to searching for oil and gas reserves in waters off cyprus and current checks greece has claimed this is has exclusive drilling rights in the region but it says it's open to sharing newly discovered gas reserves and will sit down to toltz with no strings attached. nobody should lay down preconditions there can be no preconditions set by greece. but the. says demand to turkey immediately stop its gas exploration in contested washers germany's top diplomats will brief his e.u. colleagues on thursday on his bit to get the regional rivals to the negotiating table. and for more let's bring in our istanbul correspondent dorian jones story and why are these gas reserves so important to turkey. well the vital for
10:16 am
turkey turkey imports 99 percent of its natural gas and spends around $40000000000.00 a year on energy imports so this gas is seen as crucial to alleviating this chronic balance of payments problem which continues to undermine the country's lira which hit record lows again this month and on top of that given the fact that turkey imports from countries like russia and iran it is seen as a vital to energy security as well. dorian greece's territorial claims they are backed by the rest of the e.u. i mean what kind of negotiating power does ankara really have. well boy by the fact that the e.u. have made threats of a sweeping sanctions against turkey in the past and even though greece is calling for again tough measures against turkey and believed to be backed by france as well believes it has a very strong position it knows it's a vital strategic partner to europe is the gate keeper for migrants seeking to
10:17 am
enter the e.u. countries and possibly can play a similar role in libya given its military presence there on top of the it does have allies in the e.u. countries like poland hungary and it's also courting malta and italy as well and it knows that any sanctions needs unanimity in the e.u. and even if such opposition was marginalized on kronos or any sweeping sanctions against turkey that would cause an a potential economic crisis in the country with europe as well many european banks have invested heavily in turkey and turkey is a key trading partner with many e.u. members including germany so how far is turkey then therefore willing to go i mean could we see them use the military to assert their claims. well ann curry is clear it says it will not fire the 1st shot in any tensions but has warned if any of it ships are attacked it will retaliate with force our presence warning was underlined by president earlier this week but i think the real concern here is not of both sides looking for a confrontation it's seen as part of their postures for building up robust
10:18 am
diplomacy negotiating bit stronger negotiating positions what the fear here is of an accident given the fact they have all these warships in a very confined space backed by far the rhetoric on both sides that they could be a confrontation by mistake a miscalculation as the german foreign minister warned and he underlined both countries are looking over the abyss dorian jones in istanbul thank you. the supreme court has rejected an appeal from the opposition to and now the results of the country's disputed presidential election alexander lukashenko. for 26 years claimed victory sparking mass demonstrations against his government now despite this unprecedented challenge to his authority he is showing no signs of getting an . there's a familiarity to the historic protests shaking the country in independence square in minsk protests to shout step down it is the same message they have sent to

10:23 am
thank you very much thank you the leader there of the bell or a c. in opposition speaking exclusively with w. and sports news barcelona have confirmed to their star player leo messi has told them that he wants to leave the club and for free unless he submitted an official request today asking to be released from his contract the announcement comes after barcelona's humiliating 82 defeat by byron munich in the champions league capping a disappointing season for the spanish side and messi regarded among the best footballers ever has been with the club for 20 years. that's bringing to talk you from d.w. sports are they going to let him leave for free. will fight tooth and nail to make sure that that does not happen because messi has a 700000000 euro buyout clause in his contract and let me just explain how this all
10:24 am
started so on tuesday messi is sent a fax and sending a fax also to some extent in the case what sort of relationship these 2 have that it must've been really bad for him to send a fax and sort of have a face to face meeting so he sent a fax to the club indicating that he would he wants to leave. immediately of and this is where things can get very complicated especially. messy does have a clause in his contract and if he tricked us that he should be allowed to leave on a free transfer but boston or now could come back and say wait a minute you do have a clause but that's because expired he should have activated it by june to which of course messi is legal team can then say yeah but these are exceptional circumstances because of the cronut i was pandemic the football season was extended so if you're ready key the deadline should be august 31st. whatever the case tara this will be a very like his name says
10:25 am
a very messy situation. it's been 20 years he's been with the club why now i mean look there's been rumors coming out of boston office sometime now that messi has been quite unhappy on the pitch for example this was a season to forget it was boston on us 1st trophy last season in 12 years on top of that they've been in the past few years for mediated in the champions league and we just saw the recent loss to buy a new unique $82.00 but i think it's off the pitch that we need to pay a lot more attention to because there's a lot of tension there's a lot of speculation and there's a lot of tension between the players and the upper management at the club especially the president and we saw that recently with the corona virus pay cut incident where the club made it look like the players were not willing to take a pay cut when in fact that wasn't true and they did take a 70 percent pay cut so this has that now here's where the theory gets very
10:26 am
interesting this has it on many to speculate that perhaps he does not want to leave boston on and that he's using this tactic in order to bring about change at boston as hierarchy perhaps he wants the president to step down and therefore we would go into force elections but whatever the case this looks like if it goes down that path this will be a very very nasty break up in football and of course that's very unfortunate because boston on a big part of of the cubs identity i mean what champions league with boston or not 10 titles their highest ever. highest scoring a goal scorer 5 times just just briefly but if he does want to leave where could he go yeah ok it's a question of who can afford him who can afford him any obvious choices. and of course mentors the city manchester city of course would be really interesting because he will be reunited. with pep guardiola his former coach may have to have
