the third and final element would be securing borders, making sure that those that entered the european unionso in a well-organized clear manner. the european commission has been pushing for these three elements to be put in place, and across the three of them, the member states are not delivering. >> the ambassador gave me a very diplomatic answer. has the united states stepped up to its either implied or area? >> well, the u.s. was for a very long time the leader in humanitarian aid. as i said, the figures have increased over time, but they haven't caught up with the needs. i think more should be done in this respect, and this is certainly something worth taking up with the u.s. the problems of resettlements that have been talked about are good. they should take place. but we should not have illusions that the numbers, even the highest numbers are met, which i doubt that they will, they would not solve the problem, but they would create hope. >> the united states, we should remind people has been talking about 10 or 15,000 people. >> it is an increase over what is done. i think depending on

we heard fees a liberalization, meing that it wod beasier for turkish citizens to go to the european union. finally, according -- granting turkey the status of safe country of origin, putting them on this safe list of the european union, highly symbolic. it would also mean that from the european union, refugees could be sent back to turkey. sarah: how about support for this plan, max? where does that stand? max: 2 words for you, sarah -- human rights. a lot of member states thought this was a huge issue in turkey. human rights one of the reasons the talks with turkey to join the european union really never got anywhere, at least one of the reasons there, and there are still a lot of member states you have huge reservations -- for example, france -- when it comes to visa liberalization. francois hollande french president, said as much when he came here. cyprus has a huge problem with a deal like that, and other countries -- for example, the germans question the number of 3 billion euros, saying it is much too much. having said that from every leader here knows that if they want to do someth

in a generation, the european union faces a host of other challenges. the lingering effect of the euro zone crisis, the desperate need for reforms, the possibility for the u.k., a key member of the european union could leave the e.u. when it holds its referendum in 2017, as e.u. leaders arrive in brussels, they know that it could possibly be a very long couple of days, as angela merkel has said, it's now time to get the job done. >> thank you for that. the european union's human rights court has found it is not a crime to deny that the mass killing of armenians in turkey 100 years ago was a genocide. the case involved a turkish poll tissue who was previously found guilty of racial discrimination for saying the armenian genocide is a great international law. there are disagreements about how the mass killings should be described. turkey said the deaths were part of a war and not premeditate. >> vietnam says its concerned with china's construction of two light houses on the disputed spratley islands saying they seriously infringe the island's sovereignty.

it has to be a coordinated response by the european union. if the european countries are together, they can respond to the situation and manage the situation. now, yes, opening those reception centers or reinforcing the reception centers that exist is really a priority, to be able to organize the relocation of the refugees. >> are you hopeful after these months of wrangling and divisions that the european union can do it? >> yes, we are hopeful, and we are also seeing that we are also ready to help. we have expertise and we already have emergency teams and their there.emergency teams in emergency centers, organizing people, relocations. >> what do you make of this new focus on getting ankara to help, the idea that billions of euros will be given to ankara, according to the latest ilk, in order to help it house and educate refugees and make them want to stay until the war command, essentially to go back. isn't it something of a red herring? these refugees don't want to stay in turkey. they want to come to europe. >> one thing we should not forg

reporter: wanting to be safe rather than sorry, canada banned beef imports from the european union in1996. now ottowa thinks it is safe again, so after 19 years, the country is allowing european beef back on the market. it is a welcome break for europe's livestock farmers who are struggling with russian sanctions, food imports, and the summer drought. beef exports stocks steady growth after slumping in 2013, but smaller growth is expected this year. it is expected to only grow 3% next year. canada's move follows a similar move by the u.s. the world's biggest beef buyer is now lying -- now allowing irish beef on it shores. it also ended a ban on french beef. ben: an agreement to pay u.s. authorities a settlement over allegations of violating sanctions. it was accused of transferring billions of dollars into iran, sudan, and cuba. some of the bankers responsible have already been dismissed. the deal does not require the bank to plead guilty. this is the latest european lender to make an out-of-court settlement with u.s. officials. the sanctions busting total $14 billion since 2009. let'

and those countries some newer members of the european union who are very cautious who feel that europe'srs should be closed -- at least a little bit more closed than they currently are. the fear is that the european identity is in some way being eroded. the speaker explained that the main thrust of talks would be on building stronger ties with neighbors of the european union, the likes of turkey and jordan. here is what he said a little earlier on. >> we will address the very complex situation in the region. our talks with turkey are ongoing. libya is still [ inaudible ]. and the situation in syria is deteriorating. all of this may lead to a new mass exodus of refugees. it is our obligation to be prepared for all possible scenarios. we must ask ourselves if the decisions we are going to take are sufficient to contain any migra migra migra migratetory wave. >> reporter: the refugee crisis seems to have caught the e.u. off guard. and now they need to work closely with countries like turkey. the e.u. has drawn up a turkey action plan, a list of expectations that the european union hopes tha

both inside and outside the european union. the message include cards to speed up the process of refugees, and making sure they are not waved across borders before an agreement is reached the slovenian prime minister described the situation in his country as unbearable. and had a stark warning to counterparts. >> if we do not deliver immediate and concrete actions on the ground in the next few days and weeks.. i do believe that european union and europe as a whole will start falling apart. >> albania, macedonia and serbia were attending the summit. their question, if the e.u. borders tighten, what happens to the refugees on the other side. . >> we are ready to take quotas, even though we are not a part of e.u., but we need to see what we'll do with hundreds of thousands of people . >> the european union is supposed to be a beacon of humanitarian values, and the idea of open borders, that is undermined as the director of amnesty international makes clear to me earlier before the summit begins. >> as we have seen over the last day

the idea of relaxing visa restrictions for turkey, but it seems under the current stresses the european union this is now the only way that they can move significantly forward when it comes to reducing the number of people arriving in the european union. this has drawn a significant issue between countries in the e.u. between those who feel there is a moral obligation to help those people outside of the e.u., and those countries largely eastern and southern europe who feel that perhaps europe's doors should remain a little bit further closed. >> okay. neave barker thank you very much indeed for that. >>> volkswagen has said it will recall 8.5 million cars in europe over that emissions cheating scandal. the announce was brought about by germany's motoring watchdog which ordered checks on 2.4 million domestic cars fitted with the software that is designed to cheat emissions tests. baher mohamed who was released from an egyptian jail last month has been welcomed to the network's doha headquarters.

massive implications for as many as 75 million people who would be able to now travel within the european union, much more freely than ever before. it is a real sign of the kind of pressures and strains that the european union is under that now it is willing to agree to a deal like this something ha a year ago, the french would have been completely against. and it looks like now that turkey has gained greater leverage that aren before. >> . >> yeah, it seems to me initially a little bit too easy. but i think it is important to add, that this is about $2.5 billion more than the e.u. has initially suggested earlier on in the week. the european commission drew up a plan on tuesday, which didn't have as far as i am aware any mention of a real answer as well. on that document, it did say that turkey would need to improve the way it polices it's borders on lane and sea, and work more closely with the earthquake at the present time boarder agency, as well as seen greater cooperation between the eu and turkey. but if this agreement is indeed true, and the way we have heard it to be, then it could well

the european union and turkey agreed on a plan to ensure refugees stay in turkey. e.u. leaders will make sure turkey is not used as a transit country, and the issue topped the agenda at a summit in brussels. >> european leaders arrived in brussels facing multiple challenges. the war in syria, conflict in ukraine, and the aftershocks of the saga put the 28 nation block under mounting strain. it's the unrelenting refugee crisis that dominates european politics. more than half a million people, many refugees from syria, arrived in the e.u. this year. a large number travelled to turkey to europe's shores. now, a preliminary agreement with turkey to help reduce the number of people. >> we received a report very early as to the outcome of the negotiations, and we were able to reach an agreement with records to the shape of the joint action plan. >> under the draft plan turkey would receive $3.4 billion in aid in return for clamping down on the numbers of people crossing the territory heading to the european union, and it would be used on tightening security, and on creating gr

she also said she would help with turkey's wish for visa-free access to the european union, shangan zoneountries the turkey is saying if we get this visa-flee access by next summer, we will also agree to take back failed asylum seekers from the european union. at the moment, that doesn't happen. turkey says it will do that. no promise from angela merkel. no specifics on dates at all. just sort of a general agreement or a general offer to help improve turkey's accesion talks in the european union. for the past few moments, we have been speaking to lots of syrian refugees who have been sailing on these dingies from turkey to greece. the reason they leave turkey is because they don't see a future for themselves here turkey doesn't give syrian refugees work perrimits and they are difficult to get places schools. that's why a lot are leaving. the european wants turkey to give work permits to syrian refugees. it wants to increase access to schooling. the problem is that there is no real desire amongst the turkish population to give those work permits to syrians, the economy is slowing down her

now, those are countries outside the european union. what are they going to get? now the serbian prime minister also said in his opening remarks as he came in today here that ok, we'll take our quota, but it's going to be much harder for the refugees and the migrants to get into the european union. who's going to help us with these tens of thousands of people who will end up in our countries? now the saying will be said of all the other countries outside the e.u., what measures are going to be taken and can they get the agreement of those beyond the e.u. borders, because they'll be the ones next suffering a real crisis. >> david, thank you. >> that meeting going on for at least a few more hours, while we have cameras at one border crossing, this is the area around slovenia and croatia, this is the slovenian side. you can see the refugees, the migrants there on the left-hand side of the picture. many of them having spent a number of nights pretty much out in the open, and we understand from our correspondent, who's been there, that they are burning whatever material

the southern european states, the lingering affects of the eurozone crisis, the need for monetary reform when it comes to the aftermath of the greek debt saga, and the biggest challenge in the european union, that of the arrival of hundreds of thousands, searching for a new life here in europe. it has created deep divisions between the countries willing and able to anticipate numbers to settle and start a new life here in europe. and those who feel this it's necessary for different reasons, for europe to keep its doors closed. talking about hungary, slovakia, czech republic, romania. it was felt that the christian identity would be undermined by the arrival of large numbers of muslims. it will be imperative for merkel and francis hollande to reinvigorate a sense of unity put under strain by the european crisis. >> e.u. leaders are meeting tomorrow. is there a push to get them to agree on returning more refugees now? >> well, something that seems to have changed the situation lightly is a piece of information that was leaked this morning to a u.k. civil rights group called state watch. that was a document from the european council that suggested that europe, behind closed doors, may be dra

like france and germany in allowing more refugees, and asylum seekers to live and stay hear in the european union and other countries in central and southern europe, like hungary, romania, the czech republic worried about numbers of the refugees arriving in territories fearing for the identities of their nation and the european union as a whole. the war in syria, the conflict in ukraine, mass unemployment amongst the youth in southern europe, the lingering after effects of the euro zone crise and so on and so forth, but of course it is the refugee crazy that places the biggest challenge and strain on european unity. >> we'll be back with you when that speech gets underway. main thanks, live from strasburg. >> russian airstrikes destroyed weapons dep pes. moscow stepped up air campaign across the country and launched strikes from the caspian sea. more on that in a moment, but first, zeina hodor reports. >> a new phase in russia's military intervention in syria, moscow targeted the opposition from the air. now, that air power is being used to support a syrian army counter offensive on the ground. a

the borders in no-man's-land and those refugees still coming through the countries outside the european union. now, when these agreements are made tonight, if they are made tonight, to actually tighten the border controls, that will have a large impact on some of the countries outside the european union. at the moment they're looking at the front line states inside the eu such as slovenia and now the prime minister of slovenia was saying just before he went into the meeting that the situation in his country was unbearable. he said that if a concrete plan was not worked out in the next few days or few weeks, he said the problem was the whole of the eu and europe would start to unfold. those are pretty grim words. there's a lot of action to be taken yet, but the most immediate one is to make sure those people out in the cold as winter approaches do have some humanitarian conditions, that they're not cold or hungry and that they have proper sanitation. so that probably is one thing that will come out of the meeting tonight. the other areas are still to be fought over. >> we're talking about 700,

the rhetoric was all about european expansion and unity. now it's about facing up to the long list of serious challenges that now face the european union. francois hollande listed several of them. he talked about youth unemployme unemployment, the desperate need of monetary reform, but perhaps the most overriding of challenges is of course the immense challenge of the refugee crisis that does threaten to divide those countries like france and germany who feel there is a moral imperative to support those refugees, and those nationalistic countries, many in south and eastern europe, who are deeply skeptical that this is the best way to go forward. during the course of the speech, angela merkel talks about the need for cohesion, and more europe not less europe. and hollande said we should not be dominated by fears, or retreat into shells. and the leader of hungary said that he felt that europe's identity was at risk by the arrival of large numbers of muslims. there is a time now according to merkel to reinvigorate belief in the european project. >> so this, neave was a rallying cry, if you would like, for the european project as you say fro

the european union wants them to do that. e reason so many are leaving turkey is because they don't see a future for themselves here that is why they board those rubber dingies. it will allow them to work and stay. the problem for turkey is its economy is slowing. there is real domestic opposition to the idea of giving out hundreds of thousands of work permits to syrians when turks, themselves, are finding it harder to get work. secondly, the coastline, two and a half hours, more than two and a half thousand miles of aegean coast between turkey and the greek islands. it's praccally very -- practically difficult to keep that controlled. so, it will be hard for turkey to stop the numbers. the weather gets worse over autumn and winter but the next test will be spring and summer, barbara. >> it will be interesting to see what the turks agree with. we will monitor the story. bernard smith in istanbul. thank you. ♪ >>> to israel now where the cabinet is imposing new security measures to deal with more than two weeks of violence. it'
