mistake i was very much in favor of the splits in process i still am and i heavily campaigned for manfred veba during the election campaign and i believe he would have been an excellent commission president but we have to face reality the heads of government couldn't agree on one of the scripts and kind of done so we now have a line as a compromise candidate but as a very well qualified a compromise candidate but one thing is clear we need to have. more legal clarity on this issue but it means that in 2024 we need some kind of legal positioning of the european institutions that the speeds and can be done process is still valid i think that will make a few remarks in this direction tomorrow during his speech this week alison thank you very much. we'll take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world a british foreign secretary jeremy hunter said it is still possible to salvage the iran nuclear deal you foreign ministers are in brussels to discuss how to get the agreement back on track tensions in the gulf of worsened since dole trouble with through the united state

reason that they have to in their eyes push through those controversial reforms there was talk that manfred verba the favorite lead candidate of the european peoples party the sensorites was perhaps pulling out of the race earlier on on sunday but now it's not quite so clear lower and what's the significance of the commission had. well clearly it's a huge body which has the power to propose legislation but it also oversees national budget senate overseas or it conducts international trade negotiations it has heads of the commission fronts to moons would be quite an ambitious figure he said that he wants to see quick correction on climate change a basic income for e.u. citizens and some kind of negotiations with african countries to get a grip on the so-called refugee crisis many people in the south on the sense of right see him as too left wing and we're hearing now that the general secretary of angular merkel's political party the c.d.u. says that very not giving up on their hopes of men for the german figure becoming commission president we're even hearing now from unnamed diplomats that
