in part in our liberation during world war two also we have very important history together which naturally president michel these particular attention to that you are but it goes without saying that there are numerous concerns about mr trump that are profoundly problematic for us when he plays with the children of migrants for the sake of opinion polls he takes these children hostage first saying that he will separate them from their parents then reuniting them again this gives the impression that when we talk about humanist vision founded especially on the importance of family essential to our culture there are a certain number of things going on that are unacceptable and where we see that we have a car factory that makes more than four hundred thousand cars in iran which is forced to close its doors under pressure from the americans at risk currently in europe a certain weariness in the face of american pressure we are not yet at the point of the great shift that i spoke off but i think that the intellectual and political

infrastructure is now in place to prepare for a new vision of europe's future and more specifically that of a strong europe within a stable eurasia that is strong europe within a stable eurasia i think this is the destiny that is starting to emerge today and that mr trump is actually accelerating. that plant because it will take a short break right now when we're back we'll continue talking to. the former prime minister of france discussing many other pressing issues in you and france in particular have to deal with.

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race based on off and spearing dramatic development only personally i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical of current times to sit down and talk. ministries police forces and city administrations of many countries depend on one corporation and that's what mike was hoping the board doesn't implement because i'm god i'm stumped on this is not the guns not the woods as the fee that you got into the sea it's a must also apply been proprietary software you don't know the source code isn't that a such a security risk when you have a black box operating in the public eye to microsoft's dependency puts governments under a cyber threat and not only that some think office can put us in more that's what

we call softness of the essence of the music selling the songs the only one who will still be going to almost all these two borden's problems with. the incident this is the ai songs that often started on with the old vision stopped and there was a string of phone calls in front is up and describes in the fine. print . of. we're back with. the former prime minister of france talking about the current

challenges france has to deal with. correctly from wrong but i can't remember any french president being so much in the spotlight gleick among you it. seems like everyone cares about what he has to say and he talks to the united states on behalf of the you on the home plate it's almost as if he is actually replacing angola merkel as to unofficial leader of the european union would you agree with that. leg review that emmanuel michaels leadership was established very very quickly you know within the institutions of the french republic general the goal said that the president of the republic is responsible for the essentials of french presidents who on the first day following their election and sometimes even five years later did not have exceptional charisma but him. the first day of his becoming president he had the bearing of a great head of state he's got this magic ocean issaquah which is called charisma

which is called leadership and it is true that in the whole world people are listening to what he has to say first off because he is just forty and is likely to be president for a while this will be decided by the french voters of course but also because he is someone who is blessed with an intellectual prowess that is particularly sharp because of his liveliness and his modernity so all these are considerable assets but naturally on an international level it is necessary to show prudence to listen to others because the current situation has profoundly degraded and global tensions are very high and there's a lot of uneasiness regarding current crises such as terrorism such as migrant issues even questions linked to the digital revolution such as the digital economy . results in a very dangerous world and france is mostly satisfied to have a president that is recognized but there are strong expectations of him and his

challenges now not to disappoint. you think that he has enough political weight to replace america less than leader of the european union. i think that the political weight he has it in his own country because he's backed by a strong majority angela merkel has a more complex political situation with constant negotiations within her coalition . has much more room for maneuver with the national politics number less obviously america has the experience and also has the success of our policy and the strength that the german economy has today behind her there are challenges in germany for example demographical challenges but there are also results that are massively large that have given the status of a leader but i truly believe that europe's future depends on the goodwill the mutual comprehension the intense dialogue that will exist that we in france or

germany between and i knew in moscow and angle americal if you know i know now that the u.k. is leaving the e.u. france many pulling more weight and heroes as breck's it helped micron's and mission to lead hero meanwhile his game or political clout with london out of the balance. to start with fundamentally brags that is not good news because within bragg's it is a process of deconstruction of europe which is worse on the other hand we have important treaties with the united kingdom in matters of defense the studios are called the lancaster house treaties the pact of essential military cooperation so we must retain a strong bilateral relationship with the united kingdom. however it is true that we have seen that brags it has first and foremost brought france and germany closer together has brought together several countries from continental europe and in this situation we can see that brags it has triggered something

a revival of the european ambition and from an economical perspective from a financial perspective we see that many financial players who are based in london which was pretty much europe's financial capital these players are progressive the moving to confidence of europe and rejoining the euro zone or so this low is strong enough to show the public opinion but there is a real interesting new dynamic here that means. so the level barely ample of lemon i'd like to talk to you about the threat of terrorism france faces sporadic lone wolf terrorist attacks on almost a monthly basis and the center for the analysis of terrorism says that france remains the most heavily targeted country in europe it's in three years since to back cyclone and france has adopted a number of anti terror laws but the threat remains why is it is something wrong with france's approach to the issue also there. i

think that we have made significant progress especially in terms of surveillance in terms of intelligence we have also made great progress in the legal and legislative aspects of these things to make sure the surveillance policy is faithful to our laws especially to the protection of civil liberties which are part of our constitutional rights there is significant and important progress here. we see that often when we encounter trouble we get the relevant information concerning these troubles very quickly the problem is that a lot of times we are dealing with solitary actions and that is very difficult with a number of radicalized individuals not only in france but in neighboring countries who can come to france at any time it is obvious that these isolated individuals are in a situation where they are protected in a way by their isolation and their anonymity but generally speaking we have made a lot of progress numerous attacks were filed and we remain very very vigilant with

regards to our military budget which is rising the intelligence budgets which is rising the surveillance budget which is also rising and significant efforts have been made dolly's areas. of course this is a very difficult war and numerous countries have had to face the sort of difficulty and international cooperation is well established on the subject. it's beyond friendship borders mcclellan has intensified the entire terrorist involvement in syria moving more troops in than up in the eight cents to the kurds in the north what is paris hoping to accomplish in the country and what kind of dividend after with his military investment. now. you know that the french policy has always been based on dissuasion on talks not on force so intervention is not our strategic habit sometimes against terrorism we are obliged to come to aid of countries that are in chaos and that is what gives legitimacy to our actions in

africa. with regards to syria in the previous five year period we had some goals that were sometimes incompatible on one hand the goal to fight terrorism and on the other the goal of fighting against bashar al assad who is fighting his own people so these were two goals of a contradictory because the fight against terrorism required in part the acceptance of bashar al assad's role in syria and we had many debates in france and opinions differ greatly and today emanuel has showed the course which i think he spoke of a great length and we've great conviction a lot in your potent issue that you are goal number one as of today has been clarified and it is the fight against terrorism regards to the future of syria which is important the syrians must orchestrate their country's future and if we can help them we will but our number one goal is to be able to fight against the terrorists hard beds that currently exist there he asked france have any kind of

colonial guilt of the syrian affair since it was france and basically created modern syria by growing lines on the map. no. no i think that there have been numerous debates regarding the consequences of the colonial spirit which is still present in some places but this debate does not concern the live and it concerns in the past africa and the current political path that we follow is very clear on this subject so i do not think that with regards to syria there is a french position that is particularly motivated by our direct interests our main interest in this affair is peace it's the protection of our people it's the. the fight against terrorism so of course it is a blow to the heart when you see so much historical heritage all the traces of the huge civilization of what was once missile but they far before us and way before modern times all these images of destruction of historical and civilizational

heritage very hard to stomach however our main purpose in this region is that of protection of our people by fighting against terrorism or. bad you think you do not think at all that france have serous or its influence in its former demain maybe like its former african colonies. is never happy about losing its influence also i think we seek to radiate our influence everywhere we can what as it happens on this topic we do not have a vision that would be in the best interests of france but we have a vision that is in the best interest of peace and we act on behalf of the international community with the international community to fight against terrorism and obviously together all the goodwill that exists around the world to unite in international solidarity against terrorism this is our guiding principle this is the nose or is it finally i heard you say that actually war is not impossible at that is to hear a pin frontier with hate as squaring off against i imagine the russians what makes

you think that the mutually assured destruction doctrine well failed you. i think that the nato summit that will take place in july will undoubtedly be the summit that will put nato face to face with a major strategic decision we can see that nato is founding principle was solidarity but that today this solidarity is for the most part challenged by the american president on the course so i think that there is truly a strategic a revision that must be carried out and personally i have committed myself by creating an ngo and non-governmental organization that is called leaders for peace and i work with mr orloff from russia and other partners we are around thirty in total people representing different countries but all having had experience being for instance a diplomat a prime minister minister of foreign affairs or nobel prize winner where all of very very worried by the situation of income branch that is unfolding to the east

of europe and we would truly like to try to convince the various parties to avoid this accusation or else these threats of war that we hear from both sides and that are for us scenarios that are not only catastrophic but are also not truly of strategic interest to anybody else and we're all aware of europe's issues with russia we're all aware of the historical context within europe and that we must be able to listen to each other but security in this region must be assured and assumed and we should not four hundred cells in the situation of virtual threats of tensions on both sides which truly creates an uncertain climates as we can current to see in sweden for example i think that nato has its share of responsibility here russia has shown its capacity in a crisis it showed its will and its power its capability of showing the strength of russia and where all will aware of all this but it is necessary to be able to appease and calm in this part of europe because it is now

a source of tension that does not seem to make much for teaching sense. who will sit down to all of you were talking to on the former prime minister of france about europe's vital issues and that is it for this edition of sophie and co i will see you next time.

so see clearly all the old. you know world a big part of the lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig

deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the bad shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. are going to learn how to not. good luck though that that not a lot of the lot of them out of their lives when i got out of germany. this was a good time to. try to move there i'm now mom. not that out loud get out my little body not

are not there again for x. chanting and the whole people will believe just a little bit here. a lot of my kids i don't want them up aside johnny boy are they of the moment of motherhood you a little because those are the little i'm a little boy came i build a little of the things i don't want to put all the other most cardioid i know the mother of love it. when lawmakers manufacture consent to step into the public wells. when the woman closest project themselves to. the final merry go round be the one person told. to ignore middle of the room sit. in the real news

room. russia. penalty shoot. out of the world cup twenty eight.

frenzy. rolling into a brand new. mexico and japan this to me. was the headline away from the. coalition government hanging in the balance as the interior minister. says he's ready to quit over immigration policy.

russia not favorite spain out of the world cup securing the host nations placed in the quarter final is a look at the highlights. i i i . thank you thank you thank. you thank you. thank you. thank you thank you.

thank you thank you. thank you thank you thank you. thank you. but i think about it here and choose the right. sceptics to do it by being you that is very strong by different points of view and trying to be the nature of people explaining that need to all of them begin to try to predict which they did. i think spirit was what got me thinking in between that they had been then they went to go through extra time they know that that not far to go with a penalty shoot out and was just about being together we'd have friends i think for that long and and we also will remember we brought you the penalty with a group ever to play very well for you that you could be beaten in. the rain right

in the penalty box and would be everything but it will. be soon. visible so simple so little it's a diminutive meeting we should because it's a come on into shambles i thought i missed on ice and i said to the pianist. games . i knew she was somebody and was a specialist he was the u.n. chess to go to this point so that where does d'antonio was have you had.

was a few. yes was he was. easy easy easy easy easy easy easy to say was. tough to say this man told us exactly is the penalty shootout started he said that bush is going to win to say smoke and fire if you don't we know what you got can try if you high society taking off being the really key penalty saver you know so the whole thing was set up for him russian players they fought and they never gave

up and the goalkeeper i mean we see statues of all the heroes around russia here we've seen them in in volgograd mother russia we see all the big russian heroes the thing is if i if he says a statue i did today i can fire starts you may well be in the pipelines to o.m. and there you go the celebrations went right through the night across russia offer them think that travis by moscow's metro system folks are caught up in some of the revenue. was it that it was at the federal was it was was was was was

was was was but amid all that elation of course i still forget the sadness and the disappointment of the spanish bonds this team did set a new world record for the most successful passes but and what they they're still unable to break their house down. i don't know what else the spanish team has shown that it has no the goalkeeper i have a friend who looks like a spade goalkeeper and he could do the job much better now performance was pretty shameful i did and it was a slow match and spain had more than one chance to score while russia did not have any but that's football and the ball doesn't want to go in it doesn't go away thanks because if you are to see from a belgian footballer a manager frank of a cow to explain how russia performed the spanish team last night. they kept the quality they kept the control the motions controlled the stations they were really

very concentrated when they kicked in they did what they had to do something mentally. during the penalty kicks they were the strongest so yes the strongest of all absolutely strongest good looking these are the current standings for the quarter finals the sounds of the moment russia we now know will face croatia after ousting speight and of course not denmark out of competition big russia croatia encounter is going to take place next saturday lots of hopes and fears riding on that one euro while we know already is set to take on france after they send argentina portugal home as for the day a lot more to look forward to as well top teams brazil and mexico they go head to head in some mara and later after that in the evening and rust off and on belgium is going to face chapin who's going to get into this next stage will be two of these cards for sure we'll know later on it sort of playful fans been wanting their teams of course to get through the stages and it seems as pretty little that can stop one particular brazilian fan from getting to the game is their story. because

it was a week that. does was like you the last game in brazil so exciting about the games you expect too much to win the visited the bull's eye did pretty serious here just just. when i saw that drug use that. wasn't there was all there was a nice thing i mean i love it i mean. i think that we. have. to support us piling into some are other cities brimming with their festive spirit . going to the streets of celebration for it's not everyone.

actually get to the world cup and enjoy the atmosphere right away. i. guess.
