>> after his acquittal the icc decided to compensate the victims. they will get one million euros and all which will cover their medical a and psychosocial need. it is our responsibility to assist them as soon as possible. >> even though the initiative sounds reassuring it is not clear how the money will be partitioned. for the victims the fight to be compensated has just begun. donald trump has once again thanked kim jong-un on twitter for returning what is thought to be the remains of 55 americans killed during the korean war. in hawaii on wednesday after spending five days in south korea. the repatriation was agreed at june's summit between trump and kim jong-un. attending the arrival of the boxes in hawaii where the remains will be thoroughly examined was u.s. vice president mike pence. >> some have called the korean war forgotten war.

but today we prove these heroes were never forgotten. today our boys are coming home. for more on this we crossed to senior research fellow. thank you for your time. just have significant is this repatriation of remains yet -- remains? event but iymbolic think it is also meaningful of a of a trust building process between the u.s. and dprk. this time kim jong-un -- which was included in the singapore agreement signed on june 12. but still i think this is beginning to long-term trust

building process. -- good political achievement for president trump to gain as the u.s.rt people feel proud of those government actions. you talk about building trust. really this doesn't take the u.s. any closer to the main issue which is denuclearization. or does it? >> the negotiation for denuclearization process is really now very slow. the main reason for this i also think it is there's no trust between the u.s. and dprk. the dprk has close to

some of the missile test sites still there is a long way to go to achieieve denuclearization. koreak this time north handing over the remains of u.s. soldiers could play a facilitating role for future denuclearization deals. showed this time to keep this promise and contributed to the trust building between u.s. and dprk. if it turns out the remains aren't actually of ?merican soldiers months orake experts years to identify these remains.

>> as i said earlier this is a symbolic action. is a gesture of goodwill. tried to keep their promise. tried to keep their promise. i'm not sure actually. but maybe we can see one of those boxes the u.s. soldier was not real bodies. maybe it could be something else. but i'm more see the political action as a long-term process of denuclearization. thank you very much indeed for your time and analysis. turning our attention to germany where once again refugees with a

lower level of protection than full refugee status. are allowed to bring their relatives to the country. the policy was suspended two years ago after germany took in record numbers of migrants. the resumption of this partial since the number of relatives allowed to come to germany is limited to 1000 per month. >> he left his wife and two young children in jordan heading to europe from syria three years ago. he thought it would take a few months for them to join him in germany. but he has only seen them by video call since then. with them.n contact without social media i wouldn't know anything about them. ofnow he is one of thousands asylum-seekers in germany who have the chance to be joined by their families. itscountry has lifted freeze on family reunions for asylum-seekers who don't have full refugee status. those who do have a constitutional right to stay with their families.

the new rule will allow 1000 close family members a month to join their relatives. >> the process could take more than five years. who is first and who is last? -- it's a gamek of luck. notiskiness unfair and it's clear how the 1000 people a month will be chosen. >> on the one hand it will be about the humanitarian aspect. not clear how the 1000 people a month will be chosen. if they are diseased or disabled or if there are small underage children that will make for a positive decision. on the other hand we also want to see positive integration assets. if they are diseased>> the far d the new program will send a fatal signal because it will encourage more economic migrants to enter the country. angela merkel suffered big losses to the anti-immigration afd in last year's election. claire: you're watching live

claire: the latest news by the white house on the trade dispute with china causing waves on the markets. >> the shanghai composite closing down over 2%. after donald trump totaled his trade representatives to look at more than doubling the proposed text on $200 billion with a chinese imports. european shares also trading down sharply today. shares in the franco dutch telecoms from our down 13% after it reported a full -- falall in sales. the bank of england is raising to dust rates in wk to its in the u.k. highest level in more than ninee years. the bank has been raising rates.

presidents -- benefits. clicks it was a promise from the president to those who want to change jobs. there are some conditions to the benefits. at france's national assembly -- unemployment benefits. but just how closely do these measures resembled president macron's campaign promises. >> every five years i want refugees to have the right to access unemployment benefits. choose to quit. >> until now the only way to be entitled to out of work payments was to lose your job choose to . redundancy with or bosses. the latest reform won't exactly open the benefit to anyone who wants to resign. law states the person will need to have held a job uninterrupted for five years. they will also need to present a

project for their professional future development. the commission will decide how much if any is to be awarded. >> what we are seeing today is a bit different. >> it seems logical to me that the law sets certain conditions. otherwise everybody would decide that instead of working they would simply prefer unemployment benefits. >> around a million french workers resign every year. -- receive unemployment benefits to 75% of the salary. >> if the demand is high there will be more professional projects accepted. >> opposition on the right describes the new law is unrealistic and expensive even with the agreed restrictions in place. the program is set to cost some

300 million euros per year. facebook is helping its users who feel they spendnd too much time on s social media. >> how many of us does that count yet -- county? giveis a tool that will you the option to set a maximum time that you would like to spend on the app before it sends you a notification. there will be other options like snoozing push notifications to try y and start to click and one more time during the day. facebook did this after consulting mental health experts . a study in the u.k. today saying people check their smart phones average every 12 minutes. i definitely check mine more often than not. >> the only thing that is difficult now is remembering birthdays. thank you very much. time for the press review. here to take us through the

papers is dheeptika laurent. we will start with reactions in zimbabwe to the deadly postelection violence. >> robert mugabe's successor emmerson mnangagwa is claiming victory. clashes with police and claims of electoral fraud from the opposition. the zimbabwe and paper is not surprisingly pointing the finger at the opposition leader, nelson chamisa and his mdc alliance party. the paper says as the alliance goes on a zimbabwe and paper ist surprisingly pointing the finger at the opposition leader rampage the opposition protesters as hoodlums, drunk, drugged and armed to attack people and property. that's in this opinion piece from the same paper. the writer also takes aim at nelson chamisa.

it's unfortunate that to me so thinks he can subvert the will of the people. you have found an independent paper in zimbabwe telling quite a different story. is newsday.ication they say the soldiers drove their armored vehicles into the streets and indiscriminately fired at anyone describing the protesters as singing and dancing. so far from the menacing portrayal we just saw. also some interesting analysis about mnangagwa himself. he has gone to great lengths to open up zimbabwe to the world and if he claims victory and then cracked down on the opposition it would undermine his international credibility so it appears his reaction for the moment is to lay low and play for time. google is allegedly censoredg is -- a

version of its search engine. >> it's pretty scary. these revelations coming from an investigative website called the intercept that says this search engine would block terms like human rights, peaceful protest and religion. this is a crime to documents procured by the website from a whistleblower. this project has been in the works of probably since last year. obviously the main issue being the implications for internet freedom and freedom of information. one researcher telling the website that it would set a terrible precedent for companies who are trying to do business in the lucrative market that is china and also resist censorship at the same time. >> here in france there are two rappers being questioned over a brawl at an airport. >> in a nutshell two rappers getting into a big fight at a french airport. this article from the huffington post looks at internet reactions and how they are poking fun at the ridiculousness of the

situation. many users leaving a scene from that fight. one reader feels humbled by life. in the other picture you will note it is a photoshop image of emmanuel macron from the world cup celebrating. that picture itself went viral a few weeks ago. it appears to look like he's also partaking in the broad. i do feel that picture is going to follow us in many months to come. maybe the heat got to them. not everyone is coping very well with the heat and friends. a french tennis player has been fined for an epic on court tantrum. >> he was in the u.s. where it is also very hot. hurray. is bernard let's have a look at the video.

you will get an idea of just how epic his meltdown is. he loses a point. he then goes on to smash his record -- rocket four times. then he walks over to his seat and he will pick up another record -- brackets and slammed that one on the ground. stomps there and slams a new record. and takes a seat. happens to the best of us. happens to the best of us. an epic meltdown. he also tanked the last point and lost the match. it was a first-round matchups are probably a good thing he didn't go too far up in ththe tournament. he blew kisses at the crowd as he left the court. not enough to waive a fine. the washington post says you $500to fork over 16,000

for that tantrum. talk about being hot tempered. reminds me of john mcenroe who was known for his on court tantrums. if you missed someaaaaa
