in other news now struggling to hammer out a joint strategy for immigration on sunday there was a hastily convened sixteen nation mini summit but rather than producing any solutions it actually served to underscore existing divisions. we're putting forth a completely new proposal that aims to overcome the doubling of regulation we want to tackle the problem structurally where public opinion is asking for this is. this we know that at the european council other fortunately we will not yet get a comprehensive solution to the migration problem and that is why vi or trilateral agreements are mutually beneficial so consider fast on this issue friends will take no lessons from anyone this year we're the second country taking in the most asylum seekers the values of respect for human and individual rights everyone

agreed. in the need to have the european commission. a common responsibility to the common challenge danielle quarter examines the points of contention between members. europe is very divided over the migration crisis and any agreements that are made between the e.u. member states are bound to be met with contradiction agreed the czech republic slovakia and poland they outright refused to attend today's summit they said it was a power move by merkel to control their domestic political situation and then you have other countries that are refusing to take in migrants outright italy last week refused a migrant vessel that was forced to land in spain while just a couple days ago malta also refused to another migrant vessel and you know these actions they're not going on notice to e.u. leaders like emanuel macron i'm in favor of having mechanisms that. we cannot have

gum trees that most of the men who don't even use of the dead and who massively claim their nationals so fiercely but when it comes to the topic. now at the conclusion of the summit merkel said the e.u. needs to focus on their agreement with turkey as a framework for agreements with other migrant origin countries but let's not forget how much this costs the e.u. it was three billion euros this sternly still a lot at stake for merkel because she actually just had a political standoff with her internal minister he wanted to turn away migrants at the german border even though they had been registered in other e.u. countries so with the vision apparent across europe it's hard to see how individual agreements between member states and more spending is going to do anything other than drive a wedge deeper within the heart of the e.u. . but that's the live by political analyst eric and that high go joining us on the

program eric let's start with this meeting chancellor merkel of the sixteen nations meeting produced a lot of goodwill but how much closer all those countries in coming up with a solution to the migrant crisis. it's very difficult for the euro and european countries to find a common solution to this matter and to this issue because the interest of each country are very different and for example in italy they are immediately confronting eight immediately in contact with the immigration into visit ground countries the situation is very different because they are very far from your region of the midrash and so it's difficult to find a common framework to organize a european solution and we can understand that for italy and for spain the emergency is not the same then fraud years are countries in europe especially in

northern europe yeah rick the problem is a solution has to be found because that flow is not going to stop is it. i think the first program that we consider and we perceive in europe is that we don't understand their worries me gratian follows in africa and we are not very sure of that this started off me gratian are absolutely the skippy go for ups it's possible to close them and to stop them directly in africa and so we are not sure that the program is not absolutely. because i think we we are able to do it to stop the tide of immigration from africa but if we consider that when they arrive in

libya yes yeah yeah continue eric yeah. it really is if we consider that when they arrived in libya they are just on the broader of europe and they have the temptation to take a boat and to move to cross to go across the mediterranean sea it's very difficult them down to stop them and i think that the. minister of interior. minister salvini when it's in libya to explain get him to plead to plea in favor of. information of course but in the suburbs of libya because one of the out on to the northern constance very difficult to stop the movement so it's easier to organize a system of what's what on the european territory for example in italy but it's difficult for italy to accept to prefer obviously to have

a solution outside of the country yeah i mean you've mentioned a few points that are quite interesting there. and it's leave mention italy and france they have suggested setting up centers in africa to screen asylum seekers before they head to europe how likely is it that that solution would work. perhaps that the natural solution is the explosion the collapse of the european union because today we can consider that it's possible to find a common solution between the nationalistic parties in austria as unitary as in barbara. between those parties daws right wing parties and between the parties in europe example example in france who are considering

human rights and reform of sensibility in favor of the me grants so perhaps the solution and the natural way of europe to do is to collapse and to point out that there is no solution possible between european countries of europe and this is the reason for which read a lot of commentators consider that before the immigration crisis there is a political crisis in europe huge to this impulse ability to find a common solution between the left wing and the right wing of the countries and. for the countries close to do research are ok eric we've run out of time lots of serious issues to for the european union to sort out to do with the my current crisis their political analyst eric vast thank you.

over eighteen months on from the syrian army's liberation of aleppo to life in the cities gradually improving for its residents and some of the scars of war are beginning to fade locals have been telling us about the transformation they are witnessing and their hopes for the future. what is different is safety when we walk in here we are safe secure happy so safe and back again. that's the western media i think they're being unfair to us because they still show bare for the children in the streets the status homelessness and beggars they treat

aleppo's if it is still in ruins like this. now we are the people of the country and it is really your going to restore it and make it grow the worse says everything is destroyed but no one cares about this country except for us the people. think that all the top international stories and all special world cup highlights i'll be back in thirty minutes with will so they stay with us. he's become quite fashionable in the political left to call anyone you don't like a nazi or hitler why is it come to this why all the demonization after all words have meaning and much much more on this edition of fox.

shows seem wrong. just don't hold. any news that is yet to shape out these days to come out ahead and engage with equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. welcome to. the shevardnadze water wars are increasingly not by forces of government but by private hired soldiers present day mercenaries is that something

to fear well to talk about that i'm joined by even barlow the founder of executive outcomes the firm that started this private soldier. private. controversy and. even barlow founder of executive outcomes private military company welcome to the show it's really great to have you with us now as a pro executive outcomes and other firms you were involved in have conducted a lot of had a successful operations getting more than one government out of a scrap why is it that your pm ses came under political and media pressure every

time they achieve progress somewhere i mean what is wrong with the more the revolutionary united front or lord's resistance army being defeated i think it's very hard for me to sometimes. i think you have to bear in mind that it's my. mind to preserve the mission when we get involved to resolve problems because it is true that african solutions for african problems is a very good sound bite. but in practice we know flout your practice. so as you have put it when your military kompany executive outcomes was operating the media was highly critical often calling it illegal or claiming it soldiers people you said that lost the media war but most of your operations were conducted in secret why was the media war so damaging for you well first of all the media at that time in particular was used by the south african government in the south

african intelligence services to create certain perceptions specific sions were very nice to see in order to hide what they were actually doing and that was supporting so-called dribble forces in various places in africa and of course entry into those conflict zones do huge impact on not only economic interest but also a very personal interest and the media really just became a useful idiot as far as they were concerned. major problems for us yes we with can see crissy but invariably any type of operation that anyone gets involved in eventually does end up with the media and the media with a four used as a two in order to counter us and to. try and create a certain impression about us which was entirely false. in some cases he said that

the pressure on your clients to governments to didn't share or services would come from places like the pentagon or the united nations for instance why didn't those are going to say shows appreciate you solving their problems for them. i've always been of the opinion that the soonest conflicts and organizations such as united nations and numerous n.g.o.s or non-government organizations no longer have active role to play. i say ending conflicts but they phoned a guy throws they play in africa plus what we were doing was obviously impacting on certain very deceptive foreign interests that we have being practiced on this continent like way well attempt to do with the mining of diamonds attack to do with go to to do with oil. and all those natural resources of this city high value from oddities. will currently needs commodities and africa's

a great place to find it as long as there are conflicts on the go deals can be struck with governments in order to get out of these resources and use so why would the forces prefer to conduct business with rebels rather than rigid legitimate governments well obviously rebels don't test to provide any taxation to mines resources within the areas and often the rebels are really just used as a proxy for us in order to destabilize a country and replace a certain government that's not compliant enough with the wishes of those that are outside driving these actions so you were closely under the radar can you imagine a situation in which governments will hire pam says.
