western nations should be working with turkey to repatriate citizens we'll have to see how this plays out but the best option for western europe would be to cooperate with turkey rather than continue to drag its feet and and reject the pleas of authorities in the region and its own citizens for them to take back their own people i have a hard time believing that western europe with its mature democracies and its robust judiciaries and investigative systems does not have a way to absorb several 100 several 100 of its own nationals back into its system this strikes me as being an empty argument a shallow argument western europe is going that been content to oust sorts its citizens to other countries it's time for that to stop for it to stop hiding its head in the sand and to do the right thing by its nationals who are suffering suffering in terrible dire conditions in camps in prisons hundreds of children have died in these camps shame on western europe it's time to act or form a twitter employee accused of spying for saudi arabia in the united states has been granted bail. and another employee allegedly accessed the personal ac

chinese style closed internet and at the end of the day that is limiting the freedoms for russian citizens. thank you. europe has a new monetary chief christine like god is the 1st woman to head the european central bank in frankfurt the previous as a matter of drug has stuck with low interest rates to ward off recession was the god once governments with big budget surplus surpluses like germany and the netherlands so they were all to boost growth. the new head of the european central bank hasn't given too much away about how she intends to proceed in her new job but she has given some indication of what she thinks the institution needs to do the zeevi needs to listen to and understand markets need not be guided by market but it certainly needs to listen and understand but it also needs to listen and understand people because a currency is after all a public good that belongs to the people we can work it is widely expected to maintain the loose monetary policy spearheaded by her predecessor mario draghi the combination of super low interest rates and a massive bond buying program helped stabilize some of the

citizens. >> we will see how this plays out. the best option for western europeould be to cooperate with turkey, rather than continue dragging its feet and rejecting the pleas of authorities in the region and its own citizens for them to take back their own people. i have a hard time believing western europe, with its mature democracy and robust judiciaries and investigative systems, does not have a way to absorb several hundred of its own nationals back into its system. this strikes me as being an empty argument, a shallow argument. western europe has been content to outsource its citizens to other countries. it is time for that to stop, to stop hiding its head in the sand, and to do the right thing by its nationals who are suffering in terrible, dire conditions in camps and prisons. hundreds of children's have died in these camps. it is time to act. >> the world bank is urging lebanon to form a new cabinet quickly, labeling the ongoing instability as deeply concerning. there have been more than three weeks of protests as demonstrators called for an overhaul of

to be born there but from a pure security perspective it is also far better for western europe to be able to monitor its citizens whether it's rejected them as citizens or not they certainly were citizens and may still well be citizens far better for them to monitor these people on their own soil and if necessary prosecute of course no one suggesting that western europe has to let everyone free who comes in and they should be investigated yeah but these countries the argument that they put forward is that these i saw fighters and members just pose a security threat to their countries. absolutely that of course security is an argument but look at what's happened in central asia central asian countries 3 countries alone led by kazakhstan have repatriated several 100 indeed close to a 1000 of their own nationals in recent months and we're not hearing about major security threats there now of course we do have some concerns about what may be happening to many of these citizens once they're back in central asia but what central asian countries have shown is where there's a political will there is a way i have a hard

help turkey of pay for the ones that turkey's currently hosting about $3.00 and a half 1000000 but beyond that they say that also europe is has to take responsibility for its citizens who are involved they claim an islamic state and all the jihadi groups it's not good enough to say that europe that they're no longer our citizens are no longer our problem and chris says no this is just typical european freeloading and own process that they have to take responsibility so this is again this hardline stance taken by turkey toward europe over what it sees as europe not taking sharing responsibility on this deepening crisis right dorian jones reporting for you from is some both thank you very much well let's continue this conversation now because the german government in the meantime has confirmed that turkey has begun repatriating german citizens but berlin has so far refused to accept them citing security concerns let's get the germans perspective for you now i'm joined now by did use it kate brady ok good to have you with us now the german government up to now has been very skeptical or reluctant let's put it that way to take back a german i asked fighters who spent t

for europe so everything that is environmental protection combat in climate change that is the top priority for this commission at least that's what. i said and that's apparently also what the european citizens want there's a new study out just today that says that 40 percent of citizens that answered in this poll said climate change combat in climate change is the top priority and they want the commission to work on that we're just taking a look at the moment live picture of s.f. on the line being introduced meeting and greeting people there in parliament before she takes to the station we just ask you how hard will it be for her to make those things that you just mentioned actually happened. you know sometimes the role of the e.u. commission is a little overrated of course this is the top job president of the e.u. commission is the top job in the european institutions but she can't just decide what the european union is supposed to do the final say is always with the member states and that's a different institution it's called the e.u. council so for her as she will have to find some compromise that she will have to follow the lead of the member states and if they don't want to do what she
