says his company would be better off outside the eurozone spark in his cell of an italian bonds in the euro. he later walks the comment back a bit but the debbie prime minister says his government will back up quote, one millimeter from his plan to boost the deficit to .4%. tax cuts and social spending. despite italy's massive debt burden. rome is required to send its budget to the ec for approval. brussels could reject that sending the stage for a broader confrontation at a euro zone finance ministers meeting in luxembourg, he canonic commissioner tried to ratchet down the tensions. is a core eurozone country that is in the interest of eurozone from italy. to have a strong euro. a strong euro zone. let's work together. let's work with good blood. let's work it -- - with a constitute your. that is the only comment i have for these speculations.

furthermore, i am well awarere that the citizens are very attached to the euro. they know that it protects them. >> how has the market and reacting to that? > driving the euro down on currency markets. 6/10 of a percent against the dollar trading about one dollar and $.15 as we see there. any boost the markets were feeling from a renewed trade deal on the north american continent this morning has certainly dissipated. european indexes down across the board with banks leading of all. down over 8/10 of a percent. not too far behind. in paris, off nearly 4% with london 3100 half a percent on the day. >> one of the biggest events of the year for the global car industry. the paris motor show. it opens today. >> open to the general public on thursday. more than a million people are expected to attend the event. is on hands editor

at the show. he joins us live now. the auto industry overall is booming. there are some headwinds. we have just seen the german government is working on a plan to offer trading and retro brits for dealing cars that could cause the industry billions of euros. how will that sort of thing go at the motor show? >> they say is the latest push back we have seen against diesel motors. that is reflected in what carmakers are showing off here at the motor show. there are more electric and hybrid vehicles here that i have ever seen in previous editions of the motor show. talking to carmakers as well about the masses they are pushing this time around. more electric cars, more use of hybrid engines. a move away from the polluting diesel engines. really feel -- fitting in with push back we have seen from regulators in the wake of the omissions prices from faulk but -- volkswagen. these days. especially on the u.k. front. what a racing there with regard to brexit?

plenty of worries here among carmakers. both about the trade tariffs and by brexit as well. i was speaking to one of the board members who is saying that their emphasis is trying to be between where to put their production chain because they do have plans in the u.s. and china, and trying to balance where your imports and exports go to maintain the business as they can. they have already issued a profit warning. by tradedamage done tariffs that weren't willing to speculate about what might happen next year to certainly, warning that it will impact their business immediately. on the brexit front, houston turns for carmakers because of the remainder back-and-forth traffic between the u.k. and the rest of the european union in the auto industry. bmw owns the brand. will suspend production outside oxford and england. as for a month after brexit moving up plans suspension of production to allow them to deal with whatever the courses might

be. you have the certainty of something that we are hearing a lot for carmakers this morning about what will be needed because those on the tray tariffs the brexit carmakers say they need trade. has been doingy well on the back of free trade. next year, it is protected -- projected as the car industry will have 100 million new cars. that will be the first time that happened. >> finally, it is a car show pure you have got some nifty stuff behind you. manufacturers showing off the coolest toys. what is some of the most impressive stuff? there is a lot of autonomous driving as you might expect. retractable steering wheels, contact cars. it has a coffee machine in it. you can sit on the passenger side while the car is being driven. that is by 2035. a long way to go on regulation on that front. behind me is the easy go.

mobility solutions. a lot of focus on that. it is not just in a private cars, it is about shared cars. cities.for future no evidence of driving. this will be entirely autonomous vehicle. entirely electric. the idea is that you can have it shared between people taking similar journeys or you can have someone let the children playing in the car. it could be shared between different passengers. it has just a maximum speed of 50 kilometers an hour. short city journeys. the carmaker has been thinking outside the box. >> looks like one of those things from minority report. slide back-and-forth. coming to the future anyway. the car industry in a lot of flux. stephen carroll will be there all day. >> thanks so much. thanks to you for that look. now time for the press review.

abaft make her joins the set for a look at what the papers have been saying today. let's start in france where the press is iconic -- honoring iconic -- >> he was immensely popular in france and almost every single newspaper today is headlining on him. starting with -- which has an eight page special about the singer. his life. his career. not only as a singer but as an actor. an activist. a diplomat. the left-leaning daily liberation headlines. with a 10 page special this time including an editorial that underscores the influence he had on french culture and life. he was one of these antihero kind of incarnations. a man who did not have any particular talent for singing or was not particularly beautiful. still time he was 30, was

relatively unknown. ended up becoming a superstar because his songs really touched about something that resonated with ordinary people. now, we have -- which is a right-leaning daily newspaper also headlining on him for -- from the book. and in just an article on there talking about his armenian heritage and how important it was to him. especially later in his life where he really advocated on behalf of armenia. in several cases. he was known as the voice of armenia. among many circles. he became an unofficial ambassador to the country to the u.n. and switzerland and france. >> certainly for the diaspora around the world. shamus outside of france. he had a huge following. what has the foreign media had to say? >> there is a front page in lebanese daily, this cartoon

titled -- the name of one of his songs. to the end of the earth. he was very popular in lebanon. there was a huge armenian community. went there several times toward the end of his life. the new york times has an article about him today. to show that use popular, even on the other side of the atlantic. the man wanted to live to be 100 years old. and it upcoming pretty close. >> another story out of america. recently revealed that children of deported immigrants were being secretly sent to a massive camp in texas known as tent city. >> we already knew that some 13,000 children of deported immigrants were being held in detention centers across the country, the new york times recently revealed that some of them come around 2000, were being forked at night to attend city in texas. a giant cap with no access to

education or legal training. the times blames the trump administration for this and for the increase of those children. especially a new law that requires people who want to take these children in their care to now submit their fingerprints and to give their information to immigration officials. many of these people are family and illegally united states, this is discouraged many for coming forward. those who did were promptly arrested. onwe will wrap up now something really different. we will head over to the u.k. where the dispute between prime minister theresa may and forest johnson has taken another strange turn. >> it is getting pretty absurd. the former foreign secretary who has been crashing with theresa may over her brexit plan has stooped to a new low. and decided to mark urban running through a wheatfield.

for those were not familiar with the context, theresa may told reporters that the not just thing she had ever done was running through a wheatfield. this can be seen as a parody of that. the guardianñññññññ
