not to accept this nation for example with another case because that was tried to extract it but belgium court of justice didn't accept it so i think that. the democratic countries in europe not has been want to accept is a tradition where you bring up a really good point because you know they'd like to say that europe is steeped in democracy here and here's puja on himself saying the best vote is a major loss for european democracy what's your view. well. european union likes to say that it is a complete democracy but is not true there are some issues that are not accepted by the. constitution are true it is of their opinion for example a democratic process of independence in case of get along or even gives up the skull and skull and was only accepted because the united kingdom accepted it but not because they're up there in union except that it so there are some issues that do of the union don't want to disclose don't want to accept in terms of democrats for example when you are discussing. the fact that an issue without the status that there are no one to look just a lot so when we ta

as we have just heard, it is not clear whether those colleagues will be extradited from belgium.ow that they have lost their parliamentary immunity, how high are the chances that a belgian court could rule against their extradition? prof. hager: it is not easy to say. you must keep in mind that there are two accusations against them. the spanish authorities accuse them of corruption and rebellion. if you look in the european documents, from spain to belgium, you see there was a list of offenses for which the national courts are not entitled to verify the criminality. one of the listed offenses is corruption. it means for corruption, the extradition is the normal answer. but rebellion is not a part of this offense. that means, we have the same case three years ago in germany and a higher court that decided it is possible to extradite him for corruption but not rebellion, because there is not a similar events under german law similar to rebellion in spain. if the belgian courts have the same opinion that it is possible to extradite him for a miner ofnse, with the maxum penalty of o

belgium had a very high water table. along with that mud was everything else that was in it.e had been at war for the past three and a half years america didn't enter into late april 1917 and we didn't get boots on the ground in europe until 1918. by that time, you've had three and a half years of war, conflict, deaths, gas warfare, all of that is mixing with what the soldiers had to live in. there weren't just one trench you had a frontline french you have a secondary trench you had a tertiary trench you had supplies in the back where you had a cook wagon, you had artillery behind that so the trench line was not just one trench it was an entire complex that was your home for better or for worse 1917, you actually had a mutiny on the french army. have the french army mutiny, they said, we won't go any further. will hold the line, but we will go any further. a great deal from the french army actually wound up court marshaled, many executed, they just couldn't tolerate that sort of thing. but it detailed the high command with the situation was. the americans make it in 1918 and

and -- and i worry about as you've already heard, if we allow that to occur united states in belgium would be the only country as require or i think belle gym is a beautiful country but i don't think that's we want ourselves to be in the same economic class or the same economic policies as belgium. you look at a study by young that finds reduce r&d spending by four to ten billion dollars year. and you've already heard from mr. davis that each billion dollars of research and development investment lost could cost about 17,000 jobs right here in the united states. so we need to get back on track. we need to get rid of the clause -- your bill will help ensure that the t tax code continues to support innovation and its key to helping america be a competitive location for onshoring. and we really do appreciate the fact that this is bipartisan. and we really looked to working withri members on both sides to advance this bill age get it signed into law. >> thank you, i appreciate that. i want to give mr. davis and mr. jennings a chance to comment on it too. so mr. davis i would like ask you

his right presumption of innocence so it's probably could be the same as rationing our case once belgium court. restart the person you are our extradition us minus burning your heart. i mean i'll get my jewel case in a 2nd but to be clear what the e.u. has done means that for anyone in the e.u. if they are wanted by a nation state in the european union and the regional court says you will get a fair trial the e.u. will say no you still have to be extradited is that the result of this e.u. decision are they actually practical terms there nothing has changed i continue to be a member of your parliament. participating in hands as in me be. but naturally there is now civility to be extra right misspend. which for sure i will have not a fair trial so that is something shameful for european institutions to have a clear proof that is a political persecution. made by a member state and to cooperate and to be accomplice of that could be a part of the persecution allowing the state to park prevent my mandate as elected by more than 1000000 people to represent the same idea as spain and using poor

and his colleagues will be extradited from belgium now that they've lost their parliamentary immunity help high are the chances that a belgian court could rule against their extradition. it's stuck easy to say you must keep in mind that the out to a consideration against him dispensed of over to accuse him for corruption and much more important for rebellion and. if you look in the european documents which are the basis of the work in the restaurant on stay in to belgium then just use that as a list of offenses for which 'd national guards are not entitled to the really fired up and criminality of. this offense this is corruption that means vocal option. the extradition is enormous but rebellion is not part of this that is what the this is an offense and we have the same pace 3 years ago in germany and a higher regional court of some hints decided it is possible to rip its 3rd item for corruption but not for rebellion because there is no single offense under german law similar to the vermillion in stay in and if the better forms of the same opinion then it is possible to is to bite hi

insist if it's a cd is to simply be extradited just speed that's simply wrong what do you think belgium's moves are going to be on this because they've already rejected the arrest warrant haven't they because they say that you have a rebellion doesn't exist in belgium nor what you expect the belgians to do well and i think they'll probably do what they always do. they get so much invested in the european union that they will give in to. the european union and let them be extradited just mean ok david kipen thanks very much for joining us on r.t. . x. the united states is urging the afghan government to strike a power sharing deal with of the taliban that revelation comes from a link less as a kabul written by the u.s. secretary of state let's get an update live to new york kind of opens that high again caleb took us through this proposal would you from the by administration and also when portly how it's going down in afghanistan indeed well it's been over 20 years of war thousands of lives lost many hopes for a possible settlements that have been disappointed but now as the united states

said paves the way potentially for their extradition there will be more legal to and fro between belgium and spain as to when and if that happens dreads of course they will be pleased by this decision and they will view this as a 1st step in a victory that the whole issue the whole question of castle and independence a simmering. point of tension for many years between catalonia and spain to be decided on a regional ordered level as opposed to a european wide level then i mean do you think you could just give us a bit more background on this case here because i wanted to ask you to do you think madrid is actually keen to put the politician on trial and potentially set him up behind bars for god knows how long well. it's considered by many to be almost the face of the modern day castle an independence movement he was the 1st president refused to swear loyalty to give an oath to the spanish molecule the spanish constitution and it was of course his rule that laws were passed by him by his parliament that enabled this approach independence referendum to take place brain will be keen to make

thorgan hazard added a second before belgium's record goalscorer romelu lukaku made sure of the resultwere beaten 3—0 by barcelona. adam wild reports. to be the best, you have to beat the best. manchester city have been largely untroubled of late. behind before half—time, this was not the first chance but the first that counted. the spanish champions look to kick on and man city kicking out. 2—0 from the penalty spot. what city needed was to be getting a chance but getting one and taking one is a very different matter. chloe kelly from the spot, not quite. the spot, a costly miss. barcelona added a third before the end for some it will take something very special for manchester city to turn this around. the standard set, chelsea were under no illusions as to the size of their task. wolfsburg, the german champions, and for much of the first half they were struggling to keep pace. there is a reason why this chelsea site is so highly revered, amongst them some of the best in the world. this was sam kerr and the finish was quite brilliant. wolfsburg were being frustrated and with an outsta

the solution — he's opening a site in belgium. means that further growth is going to be happening there, instead of taking on new staff here, we're taking on new staff there. instead of making more profit and paying more tax here, we'll do so there. so, basically, everyone is losing out here. scott's not alone. countries across the eu are reporting increased investment from uk firms, with the netherlands emerging as a favourite destination. injanuary, 40 companies showed interest in the netherlands because of brexit. in february, it doubled to 80 companies. talking about administrative hurdles, supply chain related problems, licensing issues. so, yeah, those problems are real, and that's why companies are showing interest in the netherlands as well as in other countries. the massive challenges of january were arguably felt as much here, at warehouse level, as they were at the ports. now, some of these issues have been resolved, but the additional cost and complexity of dealing with our biggest trading partner is permanent. this co

we were pleased with the performance in belgium, the second half performance, especially.ecause of the way the result went with belgium and the czech republic. so we knew the three points would help us a lot tonight. we are grateful to see danjames stand up at the back post and head the goalfor us. there were more protests aimed at qatar last night — belgium wearing "football supports change" t—shirts, in reference to the plight of migrant workers there, before they beat belarus 8—0. the republic of ireland played the world cup hosts in a friendly last night. and it's fair to say things aren't going well for the irish — they went ahead in hungary, throuthames mcclean. but then they let in an equaliser. manager stephen kenny said the critics were kicking them while they're down, after defeats in their two world cup qualifiers — but they are still without a win after his 11 games in charge. later, scotland go in search of their first win in qualifying, they're up against the faroe islands, while northern ireland take on bulgaria. and it's so far, so good for england — but to
