that's a complicated question because the e.u. both has to look after its own companies and try to look after iran's bottom line in order to keep iran in the deal and so in addition to the blocking statutes the e.u. is looking at what's called a special purpose vehicle and this is something that was just reported out last week that it's looking at setting up a company as sort of a middleman. in order for payments to go into this this holding company and for iran to transfer money there and so the e.u. is hoping that in this way it would be able to circumvent u.s. sanctions but there are not a lot of details on the record at the moment it's just looking at how it could set up this sort of financial payment system and get around the u.s. sanctions but everyone agrees that the trumpet ministrations plans to make doing business in iran are definitely going to bite turtles in brussels thank you. china is planning to slash the average tariff rates on imports from most of its trading partners as early as october according to news agency

the e.u. cannot accept it and theresa may just box itself into a corner because she's insisted that i mean no premium to people but if she continues with that lie that you know czech is either ok well and. the i.m.f. has been quite consistent relieved from before do brigs a vote warning about the negative impact it's good to have you k. now christine legarde is doing even bleaker picture if there is no deal so what this terrorism may do at this point well it's all very well to talk about the economics of the argument but really it's all about the politics. that is what the deal is going to succeed or fail upon is whether you mention it earlier in a series of making to invent your own palm and of the merits of the check as planned let alone in its negotiations with the e.u. and as far as christina god is concerned i notice in that comment you ran in the beginning of your report she did say that although it would be bad for the u.k. it would also be bad for the e.u. and again there is a politics

e.u. leaders pile on the pressure on the british prime minister telling her parts of her briggs it plan won't work and that time is running out at the e.u. summit in salzburg also coming up bob we want to val's to continue this fight for freedom becoming. live in knowing the ugandan musician turned opposition lawmaker is arrested after returning from the united states where he received treatment for alleged torture by government security forces also register your business or go to jail the young entrepreneurs in tanzania who make a living from online services like air b.n. b. are facing a crackdown by the government. plus a major decision in the biggest doping scandal in sports history the world anti-doping agency says it will lift a ban on russia's national testing laboratory despite widespread opposition russian athletes could soon be back in action and as modest fashion is having a moment well visit a san francisco exhibit that sixth floor in the complex diverse nature of islamic dress

but earlier top e.u. official donnel to scuttle word of warning ahead of the talks on the issue for thoughts of the question all the framework for economic cooperation they case proposals will need to be reworked and further negotiated. today there is perhaps more hope. surely less and less time. left we must see you face talks i would like to finalize them still there's. smiles all around on arrival at the sounds very venue however negotiations to avoid a hard bragg's it could quickly dampen the mood. so a word of warning to london ahead of another key e.u. summit let's go live now to salzburg correspond to max hoffman is standing by he's covering the summit force good evening to you max are e.u. leaders are they you know i needed in hope of a compromise there is certainly united in hoping for a compromise they all said so when they came here and the german chancellor even said she had hoped for a very close cooperation and the problem with that was as an example she cited security and not trade ties and

e.u. with nothing but respect. the u.k. expects to say a defiant to reason may demands new brakes at proposals from the e.u. a day off to a bruising summit in salzburg. president trump calls doubt on the woman who's accused the supremes court nominee of sexual assault also. i'm melissa long coffee region where farmers are abandoning fields like the one behind me due to the very low international price of the beam. a low our top story the death toll continues to climb and one of tanzania's worst ferry disasters at least one hundred twenty six people are confirmed dead so far after a ferry overloaded with passengers capsized in late toria metres from the shore hopes are fading for an unknown number of missing passengers victoria gate b. has more now. lake victoria became a grave site on the day afternoon after a ferry capsized and sank. was overloaded with more than four hundred people on board and when the ferry was coming to a stop people moved from one side to the other the wait to the fe

and the rest of the e.u. to resume a failed to secure any approval and to convince the e.u. leaders of the merits of the checkers deal in salzburg yesterday she came back to london empty handed and the president of the european council donald terse really wasn't impressed with what she had to offer and he made that quite clear take a listen to soldiers to train work for the moment corporations. must be clear the. issues. read the summit series so maybe cause the fact that she has been being attacked by e.u. leaders tends to india herds of bricks it says in this country in so she's probably shored up her position a little bit in taking a bellicose position towards a you leaders in the run up to conservative party conference but fundamentally it looks like her checkers deal is dead in the water now among the senior leaders the french president said that was warmer leaving the going to come at a price he also had pretty strong words for back cities like the south let's just listen to what he said. you know teaches us something and i completely respect british government when i

depends on e.u. infrastructure to ensure the basic running of our country like aviation for example so the planes will be grounded according to the european aviation safety agency if we pull out with no deal so if negotiations collapse in december for example then the economy really start to collapse very soon afterwards and public support and if there was any would vanish very quickly and so theresa may would have to then go to brussels and ask for a deal on what you consider to be very very poor terms so really breaks it is a process of elimination we know document note we know that there will be not there won't be you know deal scenario rather so that means there will have to be a deal and from then it's just a question deciding which deal it will be ok so alan when if there is a deal one does get the impression there really specially when looking through a bit the details of this checkers plan that there is i'm a basically wants an electorate to many a way she can pick and choose what what kind o

if the e.u. was hoping its complaint would promise the british press to change tack it seems the sun didn't get the message on mind say the red top and ridiculed commissioner. as an obscure figure nobody's ever heard of the outspoken newspaper and at the e.u. would be better off disclosing any piece expenses then trying to muzzle the press. of a tough going to stand where hundreds of locals have blocked an entrance to a german military base the protesters have worked in the country for the german government and now demanded help from berlin they say their workers put their lives in danger but it seems their requests for asylum falling on deaf ears. just not. just. on the you know. just. i was working at the front line with them. together german troops with the german generals when i was taught that my duty they told me. we will help you if you for some problems. you know. knowledge we have this german war in afghanistan in our. german officer. look at the safe place. we received direct and direct

so the exports are continuing outside of the e.u. despite uncertainties you've said a few times here or you know not just any deal it's got to be a good deal i mean what do you believe a good deal would be entailed well actually what i keep saying is that no deals better than a bad deal if you don't want a bad deal or yes correct you're right but what is a good deal for the u.k. a good deal is to be able to trade still with the u.s. the commonwealth and all the other nations that the u.k. trades with today like i said it's ninety percent of all exports rather than just to the e.u. and of course still be able to trade with friends in the e.u. and then also of course the issue is about the porous border and the irish border and have that border secure you know tell us just about the other one just i want you to talk about that but we talked about this these geographic indicators and i want to get to that again we talked about that solution there you think it will be resolved but what about the irish border what's the key thing there ok

what can the e.u. do not make matters worse not try to have these grand plans which can be executed anyway. maybe more than back to the former point what can the e.u. do when countries or corrupt or sliding into a terror terror or terrorism i think the number one thing is not to send any resources to these governments we see a lot of waste we see a lot of mismanagement with these european funds and these countries and sense from eastern europe it's a great thing for them that they are a member of the e.u. but this is thanks to the single market the single market is economically enormously beneficial for them and for western europe by the way but these big transfers half have no. really contribute much to closing the gap almost any economic study has concluded ok so but least. i mean all this is certainly also having not an impact not only on hungry but are on the p. a new unit south on the european people's party and its future how do you see that unfold you think if you need viktor orban any further h
