arguments for. this interim government in france francois hollande has said his country fully box the creation of an interim government that should be looking to be in place for the day that assad is toppled from power however that confidence isn't really repeated in the united states whereby the words coming out of washington are that well the syrian opposition is still so much of a no no and that they're maybe not ready for putting together an interim government right now so two different sides of the same coin there coming from washington. all right thanks very much indeed for bringing us the very latest here all of our reporting there from berlin. were you watching r t and coming up later in the program missing migrants. some people may have left the country some of them may still be here i think the key fact was that the agency had no idea how

5:13 am
a lot of noise about its efforts to cut immigration but at the total seven hundred billion pound government spending budget just one point nine billion is allocated to the u.k. border agency that's just a third of one percent it's an incredibly small amount and historically underfunded and still cripplingly under-resourced the u.k. border agency is now under pressure and the latest revelations that more than one hundred fifty thousand migrants the missing could just be the tip of the iceberg let me explain why one hundred fifty thousand figure came from the couch where people have applied to extend. refused and then go into a much bigger part and. are it's hard for different people trying to come up with different results. million sounds about what the number of people. immigration lawyer tells us this is the buddha agencies that have any hope of reducing the number of missing migrants they need to radically change their approach i think the u.k.b.a.
