question did we take a wrong turn i think it's quite the opposite i've done nothing wrong president mccrum defends his policies in a televised address although his attempts to fuse yellow best didn't go down too well with his target audience was. part heard a speech which didn't talk about the amount. stupid measures he couldn't rule. talk to people. and also to come the u.s. africa command this force defend itself after a report reveals washington has been running dozens of military missions on the continent and hailing unprecedented levels of cooperation between their countries the presence of china and russia plan for an even brighter future the remarks came at a major economic gathering known as the belt road for him. here in moscow with our international the french president a man you're macron has gone on the defensive claiming he's done nothing wrong in the way he's been dealing with the country's issues in a televised address on thursday night he made an impassioned plea to the public and the yellow vests protesters who've been rocking the country for almost six months. as i do ple

through paris and here in the shadows it is easy police has finally managed to do what the president mccrum has promised re stall public alter because they have blocked all the access roads you see nothing but tourists here everybody who wants to enter the street is being controlled so it is business as usual after weeks of protests on the sean sleazy. how about these recent concessions announced by president is a really nothing he can do to to quell the anger in the streets. no basically i would say that he can reach maybe a majority even off the french people if you look for instance at some of the big french newspapers when they're responding to a commentary when there are many people are responding to reports about the usual in that yellow vests you can see that many people say now this is enough we see that enough of this we want to return to our lives and we have to sort of figure out what to do now with the concessions that micro has made bought for the hardcore of these people extreme left and extreme right they really want to topple the president they want to topple the state and t

of leaders is for a long extension mccrum as far a very short run they're going to meet in the middle somewhere. belgian's prime minister spelled out the conditions under which he would grant and the strange and take a listen for to do with this when it comes to an extension it's important that it's dependent on certain conditions we won't allow an extension that endangers the workings of the e.u. the e.u. itself all the european parliament elections is this is where you come up with local persist we have to be able to work on the challenges we face without being hijacked by an extension that limits the day to day functions of the. european union leaders they're really afraid aren't they of what is being called british mischief in this extension what is there. that they don't want to be kneecapped by it breaks into your prime ministers who might be following to resume a we don't know what's going to happen in london nobody knows and so they want to take a preventive action and then they're trying to those two times britain's hands for the time that is still unwilling partner in the eu

other and to partially battled the police so the the picture is really very difficult and prison mccrum on tuesday evening he said public all order has to return but it will be a very hard task for the police to sort of maintain it and to keep it because these people that we see coming back out again that's what they do not want they want to carry on the protests till the president steps down all whatever they want will be fulfilled so this is a protest just for the sake of itself all right bob levy is live in paris thank you so much. to germany's bunda speaking now and friday night gave live a cruise and a better chance of making it into the champions league next season with its impressive away win against house book despite the visitors falling behind in the game one nil they then took control of kevin fall and getting the equaliser his teammate chi habits then gave him leave a cruise in the lead to just off the half time but this looping shot in the end because made it look easy finishing the match for one even scored a couple more but the video assistant referee disallowed the goals

and other leaders the compromise was because of french president emanuel mccrum he'd said a long delay would undermine the project of european integration. u.k. opposition labor leader jeremy corbyn described the need for a second extension to bragg's it as a diplomatic failure but he said he was committed to continue talks with the government labor will continue to engage constructively in talks because we respect the results the referendum and we are committed to defending jobs industry and living standards by delivering a close economic relationship with the european union and securing frictionless trade with improved rights and standards mr korwin also left open the option of calling for a referendum on any deal with greed with the government if the political parties agree a way forward then the u.k. could avoid taking part in european parliamentary elections and leave the e.u. before the october thirty first deadline even if both sides do find some way of coming together the e.u. withdrawal deal will still contain a clause guaranteeing an open border between northern ireland and t

scaremongering out of washington and other capitals in in europe i mean i'm thinking of president ma mccrum he one on one point admonishes been at the same trip the town chinese president was making to your piece signed in the a lot of agreements with the chinese president seems a bit hypocritical at the or at least very confusing go ahead in paris well not may answer would be very him poor you know it would be too forward in tony's or you probably know is determined to define a crisis is a term which contains the word then ger and put in a t. so that the top that's my first point in my second point would be that china is as much as threat or and the poor too nitty as much europe is strong enough not to be threatened and strong enough or petunias sick enough. to grow up to portion a-t. of course all. balancing the was the influence and turner is very good at it and find the witnesses turn up always pushes wherever it's weak wherever it's strong then you wouldn't find. it but couldn't you say the same exact thing of the united states because it's the concert good but of course you could thin

and most powerful on a nice scale will lose its importance on the world stage i also support my new mccrum in that we must further develop our economic union so that becomes a europe for its citizens as we call it a social europe as for our disagreements first of all they concern the measures that are being taken in the countries domestic policy without going into this topic in detail i will only say that this does not correspond to the principles of social democracy in the field of european politics we also have a completely different idea of how manage expenses should be allocated heaven forfend a german politician gave an interview to a russian news outlet about issues that affect both nations the minister must be out of her mind according to the german tabloid press justice minister katerina badly wants to join the european parliament for the s.p.d. and has given many interviews so far so good but why she took questions from the kremlin propaganda portal russia today is not comprehensible to many in political circles while the c.d.u. is fighting for every euro to strengthen europe's se

it is hugely ambitious of course but that's among real mccrum for you the french president he always tries to reaches to the stars but if you look today for instance at the figo the big of french newspaper it says not sure will be reborn so it really echoes what public sentiment is people really want this reborn this they want this rebuilt the stretch and they want to see it as quickly as possible not dragging on for decades because the problem is that one of the experts said yes he said yesterday morning already after having looked at the damage to nurture dam this is could take up to fifteen years so that's a totally different timeframe botch the mood in fronts is that you have to look forward you sort of have to grab this and run with it and sort of really push hard in order to get reconstruction underway however what france is lacking is not the money the money comes pouring in particularly from the family corporations the secretive else of france and l'oreal too tall and others but it is the expertise they will have to draft in craftsmen and arches and from all over europe in or

french presidents as we know looking back into history however in the end everybody tried to help mccrum climb down from the tree here had sort of gone up on and in the end it came to that very typical european solution a compromise to get in london british prime minister theresa may has got an extension but is this the extension she was really looking for. put reason may it's going to be very very problematic to have to fight the european elections that's really not a good look for her and many in the conservative party really despise her for having dragged the party into that then again she's treading a fine line she doesn't want to leave the european union without a deal so as you know that she needs more time to get something together here in london something that passes muster in the house of commons here behind me so she needs an extension she wanted a shorter one but she's got what she got and she's repeated no deal is better than a bad deal for a long time but now it looks here in london that she really wants to get a deal and for that she just needs to adhere to what the europea

a deal on friday mrs may is to meet german chancellor angela merkel and french president emmanuel mccrum later to try and get their support for a delay until thirtieth of june she's then due in brussels for an emergency summit on wednesday where's that will go to the vote. well is almost three years since the brics that referendum and many in the u.k. have changed their mind on whether they should leave the union after all the town of boston just over one hundred kilometers north of london is home to thousands of migrants from eastern european countries back then it voted overwhelmingly to leave the e.u. we went to see where the pendulum is now. the people already voted. so they should leave we have to vote we do so much to leave stick to it as best we can and let's get out. of its price thank you all with the jokes even on the line that made news today the wife used to have has these make it the job is now we have no tradition that we're not even set up right still for a case that offends pay paul. respect this. you know to drink in the story it's not safe to walk around especially not

parisians to saturday evenings easter mass normally held in oxford was moved to a church nearby present mccrum pledge that building will rise from the ashes he said after dramatic scenes of a historic spike collapsing shocked the world. most is there to france which is burning reduces his or her to france's certifier is and so that's a part of a walk we are losing two nights says city of just not true down is the heart of paris it is grander it is monumental it is horrible to see everything we have learned growing up in smoke centuries of our heritage. a. place that. it's very sad it's one of the great monuments of france not far away so it's devastating that a monument like this is burning. and in most as. i say this tucson we will rebuild this great cathedral together we will appeal to the greatest talents to help restore not tradin because this is what the french people expect and it is what our history deserves it is our destiny. so much destruction more pictures to show if you haven't caught these before drone footage from our video agency ruptly showing where the fire tore through the ol

mounted mccrum he has been really digging himself in he also let it be known that he's not content to be guarantees that have so far been put down to tie britain's hands as long as it is a member of the european union in order not to disturb business and the other decisions off the e.u. so he really sort of is it playing hardball in there and it is up to uncle america and the other twenty seven leaders to just sort of get him down out of the tree that he has climbed up on. like maybe flipping coins in brussels tonight but in london i think the brigadiers that may be sharpening their knives they are angry with the prime minister or thing though extremely angry with the prime minister and have been for some time but absolutely furious that they say that she is capitulating to the e.u. she's putting the u.k.'s life in the hands of france and germany in particular. as to what they decide tonight the the very likely possibility of the way it's going that the u.k. will be taking part in as you have been parliamentary elections at the end of may which they're upset if you know it's about eve
