people have changed what they think about our country have changed their opinions and. with this regard when i spoke to my colleagues from croatia and france. on the edge of the i think that it's been him and them. all those. have found ids will now be able to have visa free access to russia up to the end of this year and i hope that many of them will. use this opportunity and to come to our country once again on multiple occasions and bring their families with them thank you thank you so much. ok that was president putin speaking within the past half an hour or so at the end of the world cup tournament what a month it's been he said we've got a lot to be proud of we can expect even greater results and

a lot of thanks for the organizers now what we're showing you now this is paris now you can't quite make out just how many people have converged into the city center we saw an image earlier on of the arc de triomphe it was surrounded there are thousands of people there we are that's the picture we saw earlier on celebrating the fireworks in a country that's come every right to be proud having secured their second world cup last time it was nine hundred ninety eight and they did it just over a couple of hours ago to get their second trophy and i'd imagine that things like this are being echoed in towns and cities across france but certainly paris leading the way there i think just about everybody in the city whether they're into football or not is celebrating and enjoying their moment of glory and thanking their football team getting their second world cup trophy there be a few so heads on monday morning in france i can imagine a few people turning up late for work now. response in house of how do you come out

on the show the latest guy on the final and throughout the two hundred. her who. are the they were the. coach. of her us with her . of the. with the old who.

who who. was with us twenty three croatian players plus the coaching staff will be very very disappointed because. at the time the best team was losing and was losing because of. in my opinion and mistake of the concept of the v a i'm not saying it's not the penalty because that can be different opinions are wrong i'm saying that the concept of the view is a bald important mistakes of the referee. and this was not one of these

of these cases so really really disappointed you that in the second of happened what we were expecting and then france scored the sort of wall in the fourth and just. a mistake of that i don't even call a mistake i call extra confidence because of the four one in the game over but croatia still playing until the end of the great pride they were fantastic and they deserve all of the credit for what they did but. in football the realities. and france is the world champ in twenty years of it's been a fantastic world cup and you would think that the final he would be a fitting climax to win it was was an it sure assessment of the last month of football that we've watched you know i think. many many would seeing this happen i think the fact that. the biggest players in the world they didn't make it with that

teams i think that's also the beauty and and the power of the icing the v.a.r. gave a very good contribution when i was applied in the ride because fancies i think crew in france in the final scenes the beginning was a good final was a really good final and i would like to see the second hour of starting with the one one. not to be the one and specially with the two one. that threw me for the final of the. highest scoring finals on but it was. what i think it was a fitting to what has been an absolutely fantastic welcome i'm a little bit sad that we didn't get three more goals because then they would have been superseded or we would have superseded brazil when you said now we don't see

one goals were scored in brazil four years ago hundred sixty three before today we got six one hundred sixty nine which is still very very high when you said we needed nine goals i thought yeah. actually it's getting interesting with fernando and that's cut to the chase here right so it was one one it was pretty even croatia started really really well and for me the whole for the first forty five minutes was they were the best team no doubt about that france didn't really play well they looked very nervous and then this referee and i have to say nesta pretty in a row also refereed the opening match between russia and saudi arabia in that state and he also referee craig versus then i came out and i told you i was very unhappy with his performance i thought it was very one sided then today he then brings involve on a decision where i don't think it's a pouncing i think if it's a penalty then i think the game is completely ruined and it takes so long he watched to so many times and you know it just shows you that he's in doubt he

doesn't really think it's a penalty but he hasn't got a clue what am i to do here but i say you know there's a huge moment it is the moment they this is why france wins this game for one because what happened after that they obviously school they go in and have time to one up crazy it was one nil down got it back to one one and we have to remember they are tired they play three times extra time but this decision but for me it's crazy it was not a penalty if that is a pound we would have twenty penalties in every game and you could play alike. his mind and opportunity like that he will convert and the controversy is it has to be hard to pull yeah there's got to be intention it's got to be a deliberate movement of the hand to the point happens is the guy doesn't hit the ball and he's this distance you know and it's you know just walking through so apparently i mean if that is a penalty again i repeat myself we will have parents is so many penalties in every game and that's what we needed to avoid situations like that the control this is an

almost frankly uncertain silly mistakes you know clear and obvious mistakes were a ship in the service but what it did to croatia was it be flayed them and this was a moment where you know all that all the extra energy everything they showed in the previous three games it's just disappeared and they'd come back as we've said before three times in a row in the knockout stages they've done it a full time here and then this controversial decision knocks this thing out and you felt that this was just one time too many for them to go to the well and and pull it back. russia because you know we have spoken about them for a few days let's not forget. what a big part they played in this competition we said it before host nations it's important mighty well to keep the atmosphere strong and vibrant and i think we saw that in this world cup maybe more than ever before because the the the kind of energy that it generated across the country it really lifted everybody and also it made more russian fans i think go on to the subsequent matches generated an

interest in the competition i don't think this this world cup would have been so brilliant had russia not either and what russia also created they created the personality of stars in russia there are now stanislaw she says is a massive star you can pick and choose you can pick i want that square to be named after me it will be charity sestinas choses zuba. people who went on the football pitch and worked for the. country inspired people show people that there's a different way of doing things and i think in a nike. period six to six months travelling here all the doubts there was about first of all will be put off to the host of the fun we get through. the news good enough with people like come in here you know how would it be can our football team play all these things that washed away when russia feet saudi arabia five and from that moment on this world cup just took off. ok i was the most experienced guy in

the world cup i've watched them since one thousand nine hundred eighty four and a lot of them i've been through a played one myself i've been broadcasting. but i cannot remember anything as enjoyable as having been up in most of the time being at this place has been since after everybody i know who works in the same kind of job that i was probably into or to russia with with all but we would sold before hand that it was dangerous to be here that it wasn't going to be good stadiums were very the same thing we heard four years ago before we went to brazil all that turned out not to be true in fact everyone thing it's been for you know a lot of the guys from us for a lot of guys just the very things assertion of any form of players working for the very reason everyone's a bit sad most of you have beliefs that you have enjoyed here yeah but i think you have to just remember the high points and one of them from a was when russia went on tant of the tournament very following day they flew from

sochi punk to moscow and then met up with thousands of russian fans in the fan zone here and then filled a flag that said we play for you and i think that was the key thing that the fans felt that the players were doing this with them that they were on this journey together and i'm sure that's the feeling that they'll be enjoying right now in france the french supporters in paris going crazy they feel that this was a win for them this was a report from our correspondent in paris show the davis king right after the final whistle. i. think we shall find that incredible still people just don't see me joy here on the street waving their flags for them this is an amazing opportunity to experience something of the country loss experience twenty years ago when front's was actually the least nation than when they won the world cup many people believe

that they could win this championship going and they will very very strong here that that they did they cheat and of course they've done it every stage the way the fans have been out in the streets and now they've been rewarded with this incredible moment this moment where they know that they are now the world cup champions and this weekend is just the icing on the cake the first still day the national celebration here in france and now this sunday the fifteenth and even i think i said of regime fronts as i have let. me say that progressively every day they do so but when they munden i think you know when you look at all the squats when they have all the twenty three names of being put on the prime time for a while was quite you look at brazil the thing was what they have spain was the same and also germany and you have to remember germany didn't finish first this

time they nearly finished last when they really in past and south africans laughing that didn't even make it through as world champions pretty sure that grace said on the bottom of the reflection we're going to be partying tonight i'm sort of a see carol going to let the players out and i know all of the board will be celebrating and expected to get this far you know the fun so they will have been dreaming the dream was when they got so close to the sun disappointed when they won three consecutive games at a time to five penalties. can say they didn't have the tested we spoke to the croatian president ahead of this. matches she's a passionate football fan by the way and very proud of her national team regardless of defeat well i didn't see the team i saw the selector they're feeling fine they're feeling great what i can say is like i just played i'll be relaxed it doesn't it doesn't really matter if we're going to the gold or just sold our will on the top of the world and i'm so proud of my nation it's been interesting to hear

on the rooftop we've seen kind of everything haven't we we've always been it would be easy with with celebrities out of all the inner freud that i will get into one of his wives and. where there's a drop of made of not a nice job and i'm worried not only about the fall because it's a great view but it comes at the at the cost of this sheer drop plenty worried about being struck by lightning as well but that's the energy that we've heard throughout this tournament we've had our correspondents all over russia in the host cities bringing you know i hope a chance to soak up some of the atmosphere to enjoy what it's like to be part of this tremendous footballing road show them some great experiences along the way i would like to take a moment now to share a few of them with you. should have been taken over by my friend to belgium egypt should be sitting with the french mexican because she really is just saying. that he shot and.

killed people she could see sixty five six seven. shared so many. oh. yeah.

before you say. i'm. dancing again when was it was going to wind up going to you. yeah i think you. know what the celebrations have been like in some of russia's other host cities been a great atmosphere lots of russians enjoying this will come up and just picking a new team to support to the end after russia departed let's go see sochi down whole consist. in st petersburg. a set looks nice and dry there what's it been like for you being part of the team covering this well the football on the pitch has been fantastic and i think that final really really encapsulates the kind of tournament that we've had great individual performances fantastic goals our studio

here in st peter's it's been really a wonderful backdrop for what's been a great talk about the great possible experience for me i've managed to take kids to pieces by the wonderful people here the culture the architecture everything about this city has really been welcoming to me i even brought my family out here as well to spend the last week of the tournament with me such was the amazing atmosphere here and as well of course the fans who have come from all over the walls try. to watch this world cup which has been probably one of the greats this if not the greatest in history what an incredible month it's been just before going live oh saying to our producer how tired i feel how i miss going back home some oscar actually if i'm truly honest i'm really going to miss this experience what an amazing experience it has been the weather here and saucy the rain really hasn't dampened the whole experience overall the stadium the fish they gave me

a behind we had seen some of the brightest matches. the knocking portugal out and finally that game which had over one hundred forty million russians on the edge of their seats the country dared to dream for one week one day for that hundred twenty minutes at the host nation reached the quarter final before having their hearts broken by the croats who of course the day came the second of the champions france without the fans there as you were saying neal this really wouldn't be the experience it was and for me interacting with those people that came from a far field this asia south america or australia or north america i visited multiple cities in russia from santa kaliningrad from sochi to st petersburg and they really embraced the country in the country embrace them they came despite all preconceived ideas all reservations all preconceptions about was shattered this month and it's no use ration to say we heard it from the people president but you know the best world cup ever it's hard to understate really what an experience this

has been for russia we've been bringing you the highlights and analysis with some of the greatest minds in the beautiful game and we put the shot with lots of colorful visitors let's take a more than a thought it look back. welcome to our teams coverage of the twenty eight thousand feet for world cup i know you're watching at home because base the world cup what else would you be doing right now the best to do in in their television presence. it's not easy or somewhere oh it is. very unlucky the last few days and you're going to moscow. bracing the very english weather studio all been specially lined up i didn't really know the weather personally. i i feel

i wasn't as a political fan knows. been passed in england if you are an english person when talking about the world cup you have to say it's coming yeah let's get stuff by the riches story but by the way the cast was absolutely amazing in this tournament. i'm sorry peter but he was even better than you. fantastic. general of the supreme committee for deliberately legacy for the twenty twenty world cup. maybe for your. story. and my kid is my kid in spite of he looks older than me. i think i think these boys from iceland since they were babies they were eating

a lot of meat on breakfast immediately just to give you an idea how big these guys i'm going to. be go keep this ring i do have a quick question for peter. i know is a midfield dynamo if you fancy yourself a quick question for peace my good it's not your good i know that is unfortunately a situation that will come up you can have many teams that you support the caribbean feel you only want and there's only one guy with a home that is really making the most of it. although it's also when you want to look a little bit. what do you want us all to. do with. you know without the.

what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. or somehow want to preserve. what you do want to be for us that's what the four last three in the morning can't be good that. i'm interested always in the waters in the. first sitting. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. let it be an arms race. here in dramatic development. and. i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical. in.

that we get on line news donald trump's arrived in helsinki for his first formal summit with the russian president vladimir putin it comes on the back of a trip to brussels which so fractious talks with nato allies and a visit to the u.k. during which he also courted controversy after undermining the prime minister's position. and despite the poor state of relations with russia the u.s. leader said that monday's talks may go more smoothly than the others he's had this past week. putin may be the easiest of them all. i hope we get along well i think we get along

well hopefully some day maybe he'll be a friend it could happen but i don't i just don't know him very well in the sense we're competitors not a question of friends or enemies not my enemy but we also political historian peter his thoughts on monday summit he told us that he hopes nuclear disarmament in particular is an area where a common ground can be found we've already had a lot of tension between our two countries trump says that he wants to be friends with russia but our policies are not friendly toward russia. and so we've got the nuclear posture review that the united states articulated in february of this year . responder said that on march first with his state of the nation address. there was a russian now has five new nuclear weapons already on line or about to come online all of which can circumvent america's ballistic missile defense system this is

a very big issue to prove they made a big point of that march first speech the fact that the united states abrogated the a.b.m. treaty in two thousand and two so if nothing else if they can make some progress comes of understanding on the nuclear front that would be very step forward for all of mankind. israeli military has carried out its largest air campaign against hamas since twenty fourteen the i.d.f. says it had forty of the ruling is limited group's facilities across gaza the air raids began early on saturday in response to flaming being flown into israel by protesters in the beleaguered territory israeli defense forces then stepped up the operation after hamas fired rockets over the border in retaliation the violence has reportedly left twelve palestinians and three israelis wounded in who is in gaza for us i am now fifty meters away from the target the israeli forces targeted with four air strikes and as you see this playground is more of
