5:22 pm
but that will end at the end of the break that transition period which will finish in december 2020 so only a few months away that's of course unless the 2 countries reach a new deal something at the moment that seems highly unlikely given that the 2 countries are not seeing eye to eye on this issue. pandemic downs and vary from country to country with some of the world's poorest facing the toughest restrictions documentary makers redfish have been following migrants in west africa here's some of what they found. as i would have been the whole month on. monday to fill. in for now that i'm going to see this woman. in october offical you love me enough to do to help all but a feel of the whole of africa today will. look for the much. worse than this. one to add.

5:25 pm
russia's diplomatic mission in slovakia has said we still have not heard anything from them now this is not the 1st time there's been a diplomatic mishap between moscow and the european union for example back in june the czech government actually expelled another 2 russian diplomats after they were accused of spreading misinformation about a potential attacks on czech politicians in december another 2 russian diplomats were also expelled from germany they were accused of having some sort of connection with the high profile murder of a georgian national that took place last year of course that was not proven and now the slovakian media is actually connecting this most recent expulsion to that murder as well. thanks for joining us here on oxy international daniel hawkins will be here in 30 minutes with the latest.
