there could be some concessions from the eu.less bureaucracy and more competitiveness are part of the official eu goals anyway. but the last point is a dealbreaker. cameron wants to give migrants from other eu countries no social benefits unless they pay taxes for four years in great britain. david: the confrontations i have had with all member states show goodwill, but it doesn't change the fact that some parts of the british proposal seem unacceptable. max: so, the eu reforms will be back on the menu at the next summit in february, and, eventually, they might determine whether great britain remains in the eu. but until then, and especially at this summit, the leaders have more pressing issues to deal with. sarah: let's bring in dw correspondent barbara, who is covering the summit for us. what is expected tonight? constructive debate? reporter: the split is deep and the divide is really enormous. some say that the eu has never been in as bad estate as it is right now before christmas -- as bad a state as it is right now before

that you remove customs tariffs will remove- the eu customs tariffs and quotas. ,ussia is angered by the deal saying it could reduce the attractiveness of its own exports in ukraine. moscow suspended its free-trade week,ent with kiev this but the ukrainian prime minister says his government is prepared for russian sanctions. regime, as we expected, will implement sanctions against ukraine, particularly for our free trade agreement with the eu. ukraine has already prepared counter sanctions to the trade embargo that will be implemented by russia. reporter: these include -- counter sanctions include blacklisting russian airlines. following the annexation of crimea last year, russia said it would take legal action over ukraine's failure to pay its 3 billion euro debt. as of friday, moscow will also reestablish customs taxes up to 7% on ukrainian imports. markus: the final trading day of 2015 in the united states. indices are set to close out the year in negative territory. the dow jones industrial average going lower by about 7/10 of 1%. all sectors are down as investors seem to be adju

you know the eu well. italy reports today, appears to be one of the most countries regarding these sanctions against russia. francois: bailey asked for a debate at the european council. ultimately, -- italy asked for a debate at the european council. ultimately, it did not include these questions. the resolution has been seconded by the committee. the decision has been made to maintain sanctions against to disconnect was going on in ukraine with what going on in syria. do you think it is possible to play that double expect russia to be cooperative on issues such as counterterrorism and resulting -- resolving other, more pressing issues, like this syria we have -- like the issue in syria we have been speaking about? and at the same time punishing loss go for their presumed involvement -- punishing moscow for their presumed involvement in ukraine? francois: first, we have to make sure that the minsk agreement is completely respected, which has not been the case. this is something we have to , and to make cle

it wasn't eu turkey summit for the first time on november 29 come a commitment, biannual eu turkey summit. >> you are correct in pointing out that in each of the recent european crises that the u.s. exposed as being very weak, and after these crises, and i look at the refugee crisis what no locus clear, i guess the question, the question is what is the eu necessary for the solution of these crises? and why, given all the threats that that there should european are facing all that must be done, why must the preservation of the eu loom large in terms of their priority? one of the things we keep saying is that in crisis, nation-states tend to behave like themselves, right speak with i'm not going to get into question the natural character but they are pursuing their own interest. they have their own constituencies and so on. this strikes me as one form of normal, as one kind of normal order. some asking you, why should i not give up on the eu? why is it necessary? >> i have an answer. the eu is one of the most important piece projects in -- over the last centuries. we have managed to forge a

now the eu commission has a proposal for member states that are unable or unwilling to secure the eu's external border. a new border agency. >> the guards will be supported, monitored, and when necessary reinforced by the european coast guard agency. reporter: the agency will have a rapid response team. until now, countries in the eu have had sovereignty over their own borders. the new agency would call that sovereignty into question. >> in the last weeks and months we have seen that individual member states are not always able to secure borders. citizens expect europe to take measures, send troops, and maintain order. reporter: not everyone is happy with the suggestion. >> don't you think a better answer to a regular entries would be giving a possibility for refugees to enter regularly, legally, and a fleet? -- safely? then you could also have your security checks at the borders. reporter: the border agency has only just been proposed, but already, i heated discussion between member states. brent: you are watching dw mo news. still to come, how the makers of star wars are planning to

under the proposal, the eu will have the power to deploy forces without their consent. close to 1,000 enhancement stock compared to about 400 at the current border agency frontex. the union is also requiring stop people from making the dangerous journey by sea. partly because of greece's border control props. the majorities of people who make it to europe do so through the greek islands. john siropolous reports. >> this has been the entry point for 800,000 migrants into urine this year. the greeks have clearly been in need of greater assistance than they have so far received from their eu partners through frontex, the existing european borders agency, and they are up to the task of policing european borders and fingerprinting fingg migrants but the sheer number is overwhelming so the greeks evoked emergency status, to provide them with more aid than they have voluntarily done. but the greeks only did this when they were threaten with expulsion from the schengen agreement. only when they can perform the position of an independent state. >> it demands that eu and the cons

the eu and the u.s.ors have singled out thailand, in terms of the issues , that is a serious issue. what does this mean in terms of credibility in thailand? >> it doesn't mean anything about the individual airlines. , itcivil aviation authority -- where the fleet in thailand nearly doubled in size. there was new airlines launched. forthe amount of resources inspectors didn't increase. that has been a major issue raised. what has happened is they have to bring in outside expertise to meet the international standard. the airlines themselves, it doesn't mean anything individually. it just means that the government doesn't have the infrastructure and resources in place. because of that these issues have been raised and are being dealt with. yvonne: some issues that may have fallen through the crack's. they talk about expert seeking how -- help. has this change your view? what reforms do you want to see out of this. wherwill there be enough? >> i think it is already in the works. it just takes time to impleme

everyone saying that goes against the core principles of the eu treaty. we are expecting a very heated debate over dinner. all the utensils will be on the table. however, nobody is expecting any solution at this summit. they want everyone's opinions to be aired. we are expecting progress on this in the next summit scheduled for february of next year. of thene: the head international monetary fund monetary fund, christine lagarde, is protesting her innocence today. she is vowing to appeal a decision to put her on trial over a contested state compensation- payout in france. the 400 million euro payment could make -- mehmet made to uro payment made to bernard tapie. there has been plenty of reaction to this news in washington, where the international monetary fund is based. we go live to our correspondent, philip crowther. christine lagarde putting up a spirited defense of herself. can you tell us a bit more about her response? seems like a pretty normal day for christine lagarde in washington. she is in town and, i'm told, going about normal duties. she had

covering the latest in the negotiations on brexit and the eu.itton.ith us is erik bir you cover the election substantially here. the polls, how much credence -- they are taking center stage in this argument, aren't they? the telegraph from lord ashcroft and another one say that we have a vote on whether we stay or go. and they're quite evenly split. erik: indeed. there is a sense that is convenient for david cameron, right? polls are 70-30. we want to stay in. he is in that negotiation with no cards to play. any three be 50-50, or a small majority to go out on the current arrangement. anna: a lot of undecideds, that will be a factor. people want more information, don't think? it is not clear that will be available, because there will be things that nobody can promise. processst think that through, what he needs for the negotiations is uncertainty in the mind of the british public to whether we will vote in or out. that is how he plays his cards, how big is the deal he wants to get. the uncertainty, though, matters. andatters for business economi

is puttingthe eu forward a controversial proposal.ower to intervene, even when the host country does not consent. aimed at slowing the record flow of nearly one million refugees and migrants to europe this year. we have the report. >> the scale of the influx is daunting. one .2 million people in the eu, illegally in the first 10 months of this year. four times more than last year. subtextants to scrap for border protection and replace it with a more powerful force. under the commission's proposal the new agency will have new morenent staff, double or the front deck's budget, which this year stood at 140 million euros. in addition around 1600 national border police will be placed on standby. controversially they are expecting ties to be deployed without their consent. to protect external borders. the current crisis has exposed context limits. france and germany have been pushing for a new, more powerful border resource. perpetratorsof the on the greek islands were found hiding among the migrants. to accept theck proposal. >> we welcome

so i asked, why should i not give up on the eu? why is it necessary for a solution? >> i have an answer. the eu is one of the most important piece projects in the history of europe. >> over the last centuries we have managed to forge a union out 28 sovereign nations that devolve some of their sovereignty to the union, but it brought piece to europe we have a transfer union, the eastern european countries are far better off than they used to be. it's not part of the european union, but the danger and the challenges, there is now a tendency for re- nationalization which can be toxic. and there we have to have a coalition of strong leaders in europe and the european union that can contain the tendency to re- nationalize, someone who will be willing also to sacrifice a lot of things and we can preserve this great piece project. >> now, of course, one of the proudest achievements, border free europe is in jeopardy as one after the other countries are building walls around themselves. so it is -- it really is a perilous moment, and i would like to thank ambassador wittig a

and four july we asked the eu hundreds of times for a contact. and only these contacts started only in july. so the first contacts started only in july. and they didn't yield any results. we met with the head of the european commission. we met with a chance to of germany in turn one and discussed this issue. our goal was to maintain our economic ties with ukraine, the ukraine is a member of that free trade zone agreement, and the tariff rate is zero. and ukraine uses the same technical rules that rush and other countries are using. and now ukraine is pulling back from that regime they want to adopt the european rules and regulations. and it says that all the ukrainian markets must comply with the standards and regulations of the eu, but our good did not conform to these requirements yet. so what do you do with our goods? are you going to throw away ration goods from the ukrainian market? and it's also said that ukraine has the right to keep both regulations. it has the right but it doesn't mean that it's going to do it. it just has the right. and

government keeps its alls in europe and eu involved.o ensure that our armed forces are going to be operable and can work on the field wherere they e needed. that is one ofof the reasons whi have come here, to try and make sure that they keep us in the loop. -- vago: how do you think the eu, united states, and edu can advance common innovation interests? thee technological games changing for everybody and yet everybody faces financial constraints. >> iis very important we get the transatlantic relation right. we talked about burden sharing. we need d to commit to work on . defense budgets are finally going up in europe. i think we have to get this moy to be spent in the best possible way. p promotes defense cooperation. because we produce and havave research concentrate on issues which are really relevant for the critical technologies we need tomorrow. that is what the third offset strategygy we are gog to do. -- votto ba -- vago: what are -- >> we should concentrate in four defenses, drones, cyber , air to air refueling, which was a cap

this government was the first to cut the eu budget. it was the first to veto a treaty, the first to bring back substantial powers to britain. we've got a great record on europe, and we'll get a good deal fort british people. >> angus robertson! >> we were reminded there was a very strong majority within scotland to remain in the european union and the prime minister has failed -- i know his side doesn't like to hear it. but the prime minister has failed to give any guarantees that scotland won't be forced out of the eu by the rest of the u.k. does he have any idea of the consequences of taking scotland out of the eu against the wishes of voters in scotland? >> this is a united kingdom, and this is a united kingdom issue. and what i would say to him, what i would say to him is, why is he so frightened of listening to the people and holding this historic referendum. passed through both of these houses of parliament in the last week. i say, get a good deal for britain, and then trust the people! >> thank you, speaker. the prime minister's

he says we want a fair deal with britain and for the rest of the eu. we'll find a way out of the complicated situation with britain and we're ready to work for other options than britain's welfare proposal and convinced we will find an answer. >> let's get back out to julia. jewels, what do you make of those comments. they really want to find an agreement but really on the eu's terms. >> this is the point. this is the point. they don't want to have a talk but the question is how do you get around this? and when we're talking about something so fundamental as their freedom of movement and the freedom of people to move around in europe it's very difficult for david cameron to come marching in here and make these kind of demands. i'm sure there's going to be a lot of discussion over the table. and there's some kind of break. if you do get a huge influx of migrants you say hang on a second this is not working and we want a break. that's going to be useless to david cameron if it requires the agreement of the other eu countries so at this moment it's like a

many more have traveled into the eu by land. over one million entering germany alone according to officials there. a large proportion of these arrivals are syrians driven from their homes by civil war. an estimated 3 million refugees from syria are still sheltering in other middle eastern countries. michelle harrison plus -- riche lle harrison-plesse tells us more. ichelle: they are oblivious, at least for now, to the desperate situations their families are in. yearn fornts home. >> may god have mercy on us so we may return to our country. richelle: this family has lived in a small, rundown apartment for the past two years. they fled their home town, homs, in 2012. there only wishes and into the nearly five-year conflict that has -- their only wish is an end to the nearly five-your conflict that has ravaged their country. he hopes to give his children a better life in 2016, whether in syria or elsewhere. like to emigrate and take care of our children's can get anthey education, practice reading and writing, play freely. they are

u.s., in the eu, that your interest will be taken do we actually need a military base? what is a military base, now that you think of it? it requires a lot of infrastructure. you need to invest into it. currently, we have russian aircraft, we have temporary modules where they sleep, where they eat. we can put it all together and go back to our airfields. a permanent military base is a different story. some say we need to have this military base. i'm not so certain about it. i talked to our european counterparts and they are want to have a military base. i say why? they say, you want to keep everything under control. but do we actually need to keep things under control? so we have not had an intermediary range missile. we destroyed everything. we only had ground based ones. the u.s. destroyed their stockpile too. but what about their c-based? a-based, which they ranges 1500 meters. we also have the aircraft-based ones. the distance is enough to reach the targets that we need. we need to think about it. maybe we could stay there for some time. it is hard for me to say whe

pathsrits want to follow similar to norway and switzerland, which are outside the eu.der to stay, britain want some changes -- power to withhold payments from migrants, exemptions from eu laws, and the ability to opt out of vertical integration. a long history of keeping its independence from continental europe -- continental union. have been instances of britain asserting its independence. britain fromsm cap adopting the euro when it was launched in 1999. some say the u.k. has enough clout on its own, a permanent beat on the -- permanent seat on the council and could negotiate better treaties without being held back by eu protectionist. on the flipside side, it could have a disastrous effect on the economy. the heart of the issue is epitomized by the syrian refugee crisis. the german chancellor has made clear the right of freedom of movement in the eu is unassailable. that is your global business report. for more stories, visit bloomberg.com. doolittleo abigail live at the nasdaq where she's looking at american airlines. : american airlines is what of the top performe

the decision showed that the eu did not want improved relations. the sanctions along with a falling oil prices have weighed on the russian economy which contracted by 4% in the third quarter compared to earlier in the year. the problems between ukraine and russia started when kiev moved closer to the eu, seemingly turning its back on moscow. now another russian neighbor is improving ties with brussels. kazakhstan and brussels have signed a cooperation agreement. they cover a number of areas, including trade, economy, and human rights. >> the earth here is full of valuable raw materials, needed for industrial production. along with oil exports, rare earths are an important source of revenue for kazakhstan. they signed a rare earths agreement worth billions. he is seeking closer ties to the european union, and has been in power for a quarter of a century. comple kazakhstan , the world's ninth largest nation seeks good relations with russia and eastern european countries and the western european countries on the other side. this year the central asian

i'm not saying the eu will collapse tomorrow.they won't there is profound disquiet in much of europe on the left and right for different reasons including the uk in saying what exactly are we signed up? what exactly is a video? what are we going to? are we looking at greece as an example has been completely devastated by years of austerity which is only going to get worse, or overlook is something which actually is far more democratic and eu in their late is undemocratic, and that's why think a lot of people are really questioning what the european union's future is. >> it's interesting, your characterization, the reason i think initially there was a lot of hope and a lot of optimism. i want to talk about jeremy corbyn and britain down the line, but you said, he just said that the austerity is only connected to worst. explained that. >> -- portrayed itself as a left wing anti-austerity push back against sort of right wing policies of merkel in germany, the european union, nato infrastructure. i was a public portrayal. but you kno

to leave the eu. it is time for the u.k. to recover its birthright.damental change and britain's relationship with the european union. more importantly, the change in the direction for the european union itself away from the concept of ever closing union and towards a looser association of sovereign states. that is clearly not going to happen. we all have to make up our own minds in the next few months. for me, it is clear the direction i think we should take as a country. >> the new star wars movie has smashed ticket sales records in north america. the seventh film in the star wars franchise collected $238 million during the weekend theing the top -- topping 208 million dollars taken in june by jurassic world. further $279 million was brought in from overseas, and that was without china. we will be speaking to bob iger at 1:00 p.m. london time here on bloomberg tv. story onead in that the terminal that there are at least come up or there could be five further star wars films already in the mix. amazing. no escape. me to see.e for i have not seen a si

this applies especially to the hotspots of italy and greece so the eu's external borders can return to orderly conditions. reporter: apart from that, the european border agency would have to begin in more authority against the will of individual states if need be. she also promised not to ease up on getting the european union to distribute refugees more fairly. chancellor merkel: i know this is a monumental task and will not be finished by tomorrow. but patience and tenacity have always paid off at the end of a long journey. reporter: the opposition complained hotspots and distribution quotas are the wrong means to solve the crisis. >> ladies engine one, user influence so refugee policy does not turn into a policy of isolation and marginalization, but rather of human rights. reporter: at the moment, it looks as though you europe is starting to close off its external borders. sarah: it was one of the most bloody crime sprees and german post war history. with murders, bomb -- bombings and made reprehensible by the neo-nazi ideology that's bond all of it. the ringleaders of the nsu group

before july, we asked the eu hundreds of times for a contact.nd only these contacts started only in july. so the first contact started only in july, and they didn't yield any results. we met with the head of the european commission. we met with the chancellor of germany in paris and discussed this issue. our goal was to maintain our economic ties with ukraine, but ukraine is a member of that free trade zone agreement, and the tariff rate is 0. and ukraine uses the same technical rules that russia and other countries are using. and now ukraine's pulling back from their regime and they want to adopt the european rules and regulations, and it says that all the ukrainian market must comply with the standards and regulations of the eu, but our goods do not reform to these requirements yet. so what do you do with our goods? are you going to throw away russian goods from the ukrainian market? and it's also said that ukraine has the right to keep both regulations regulations. it has the right, but it doesn't mean that it's going to do it. it just has th

of course, i am sorry to say that the eu is a study and dysfunction.n the balkan wars broke out and the then head of the european commission said the hour of europe has dawned, well, it did not turn out that way and is not turning out that way today. there is simply no coherent european policy toward refugees.refugees. each country for himself which is partly what has set off this panic race for borders before they close because there is no coherent unified policy which is something we the united states know how to do. even if we don't open our gates,, as i hope that with pressure from every single one of you we will, we can collaborate with the eu and partner with them. you can only lead by example. words are not enough. the united states is not in the position to say to any other country in the world, you must do this, you have to let in more refugees because we are not. we are not. i mentioned this is also an issue of national security. we are all a bit jittery. we came up with the name after paris. but tragically there will be others. that is almos

create the kind of equivalent of what we did, create a real coalition eu safe is not -- safe hav is a leverage. one last comment. the interesting thing, with the turks clamoring for it, go states requiring it it gives us leverage. we will do it providing you europeans will provide forces, provide the money monies to build the infrastructure with the safe haven, provide forces on the ground to police the safe haven and it goes through one channel so that we can build leverage on the opposition so that the opposition itself becomes more coherent. there are ways to proceed where we have the potential for leverage. >> you are 1st up. >> i am supposed to be brief i will make four or five quick comments and maybe for the 1st time in the session actually maybe disagree with a couple of comments that have been made. on the issue of motives i largely agree with what has been said. i would only have a couple of emacs. i think i had a little bit of a problem with an assist talk about prudent and russia wanting to be a global arbiter. russia and prudent at this stage and for the foreseeable futur

the eu is singling out only israel. let's take a step back and realize what this means. discriminatory laws that apply only to jews are now being written into european law for the first time in more than half a century. i believe we need a president who is not afraid to call this out for what it is. this is anti-semitism. [applause] mr. rubio: today, anti-semitism hides behind the label of anti-israel. we need a president that will call it that. i will be the president. [applause] i will take a very different approach to the united nations. there will be no more complicity in attacks on israel. dictators and terrorists onto his will be public a shame. the united states will leave and defund u.n. entities that promote anti-cement to them. [applause] rubio: i will also speak out against anti-semitism here in america. one example is the movement that calls itself bds for a boycott, .ivestment, and sanctions they think they have discovered a clever way to advocate for israel's destruction. this movement reeks of hypocrisy . boycotters do not seek to punish cuba, north korea,

he likely had his belgian passport, eu able to get in once he got to the eu.e do know is at some point the investigators saying he made it to leros, along with two other of the attackers who attacked the stadium, who have not yet been named. they too, they believe, made to it leros on the greek isle before getting into europe some weeks before the attack happened. and it is a grave concern of authorities. it is a concern of countries. it is a concern of citizens that amongst these who are true refugees trying to seek refuge, there are those who intend to do harm. but those numbers are so minuscule. and we do have to keep repeating that many of those who attacked europe were actually european citizens as well, george. >> a very important point to make. sara sidner live for us. sarah, thank you so much for your reporting. on this topic of syria, diplomats say russia may be softening its stance on keeping that country's current president in power, but moscow continues to intervene at the military level on behalf of bashar al assad. our senior international corres
