Just 0 baghdad. New details are emerging about how a u. S. Political fundraiser helped orchestrate a campaign against qatar in washington d. C. Earlier brady was one of us president Donald Trumps top fundraisers brady is accused of illegally running a multimillion dollar Advocacy Campaign to turn the u. S. Against cats our campaign was allegedly funded by the United Arab Emirates a key dates in that investigation according to the New York Times as a pivotal white house meeting with President Donald Trump his chief of staff and his National Security adviser the reportedly told an associate that he spent most of that meeting talking about the middle east including telling President Trump that cats are was part of an axis of evil but i mean who is a senior Public Policy fellow at the American University of beirut he says the campaign was largely unsuccessful but its the sky every will have knock on effects. The reality though today if you look at the u. A. E. And you look at qatar n. Washington and in the american political elite the companies are doing fine theyre not the terrorist supporting wild islamists that the saudis and what ideas have tried to paint them as while the iraqis and the saudis are really in a difficult situation in the u. S. With with congressional majority votes to prohibit arms sales to them and things like that because of the fish object killing because of the lobbying theyre doing because of the boycott of qatar and other things that they have done so to the bottom line i think is that the iraqis have not achieved anything by dealing with shady characters so its going to shed more light seduce serious investigations on what the u. A. E. Or the so it is or even the qataris are doing in the United States i dont think the qataris have much to worry about as far as we can tell while some of the other countries have more serious issues that they have to deal with thats really the core of the polow quality of the people that theyve been dealing with that is the biggest telltale sign.

If there is a risk of subsequent unrest in Northern Ireland and suppose his comments appear to contradict National Security advisor john bolton he says a deal could be fast tracked through congress if britain leaves the e. U. Foreign sleep has more from london. So the trade deal with the u. S. Is seen as the absolute prize for brics it says john bolton the american National Security advisor came here the other day and met Boris Johnson said that the u. K. Would be 1st in the queue for a trade deal with the u. S. After 31st of october even though as many people pointed out is nothing to do with him because a security advisor and a trade deal would be within the gift of congress well now nancy pelosi the speaker of the house has come out and said what very many people have said here for months and months which is that congress would block that trade deal if no resolution was found to the integrity of the open border between Northern Ireland and the republic of ireland so in that sense theres nancy pelosi effectively taking the side of the European Union against Boris Johnsons plan so a schism there too so bracks it remains hugely controversial no clear outcome in sight will the u.

Until i found some kind of method to him that made my voice heard and so i think its of course its individually for everyone and you just have to be creative and come up with maybe something new to do there are so incredibly many things you can do and says this is such an incredibly big global problem it needs to be tackled from every possible angle youre going to go has the latest from plymouth. A message that she wants to spread what she gets to the United States is that she wants to make people aware of the emergency that is facing the planet and if there is one thing that she hopes to achieve it would be to get people to think about the conditions that the planet is facing so they in turn can put pressure on leaders but nevertheless this is quite a momentous situation for a 16 Year Old School Girl who is less than a year ago began her School Strike and galvanized an entire Global Movement of other young people who hope that they can also gets older people other generations to be able to consider the crisis that is facing the environment.

Lets have a look at some of the measures championed by sylvia has also italys interior minister rescue ships are repeatedly denied access to italian ports living a migrant stranded at sea for days ships carrying unauthorized migrants that term to dock without permission face fines of up to 1100000. 00 boats can be seized and captains arrested italy has eliminated some humanitarian grounds for granting protection to my ears but asylum can be given to all refugees or victims of political persecution the International Organization for migration says the number of migrants arriving in italy has dropped by almost 80 percent in the past 12 months. Lets bring in our guests from brussels catherine is secretary general of the European Council of refugees and examples an alliance of more than 100 n. G. O. S working on the rise of refugees and Asylum Seekers in europe in high wycombe u. K. Via skype John Campbell emma is reader of author apology so Us University of london and in berlin earlier a. Political scientist and professor in European Studies at Stanford University in berlin welcome to the program kathleen is there any chance one of the e. U. Countries will let in this stranded migrants in the mediterranean. We have hoped that a preliminary agreement that has been negotiated will come into play this is an agreement that was put together by france and germany and mts 2 weeks ago its something weve been calling for for more than a year now and that but its based on the model of a coalition of willing European Countries stepping in to allow disembarkation and relocation so that the Current Crisis in the mediterranean the 2 ships that are stranded illustrate the need for exactly this kind of agreement so that we dont have a crisis ship by ship every time a rescue ship arrives john as a crisis continues we havent really. Seen any positive reaction from a european country saying that you know what with think we should be taking them in hard to explain this hardline stance is because of the rise of the anti migrant sentiment in most of the European Countries well its under only partly to do with this good its also to do with the electoral problems electoral issues arising around National Elections across the e. U. Particularly for example its a rising in the u. K. Risen spain earlier this year but its also to do with the current concerns about the economic crisis across European Union. Really rick is that any chance that the germans all the friends would prevail over the italians and the greek of the martyrs who seem to be really tough on this issue of migrants well we have very different starting conditions in germany we have a societal discussion about living with foreigners being a Multicultural Society for a long time while in central and Eastern Europe for example we have very homogenized societies with Something Like 99 percent of checks and poles and for them it takes a longer time to get used to the fact that in the 21st century you dont live in isolated cultural homogenized spaces and there is a need to address things on a european level you need to leave the situation is not so much a question of are they are willing and able to live with others but they have a Government Service on a way for fear of that they created by themselves so its not so much a question of what is the actual problem but how does the government instrumentalists fear and is it in their interest to keep the migration crisis coing catherine is italys interior minister Matteo Salvini a factor in this whole crisis because the man is tough we know his approach and he seems to be gaining momentum and italy is the reason why many other European Countries are saying we cannot afford to do what multi any is opposed to so danny has clearly provoked this crisis on 2 levels firstly by preventing and disrupting search and rescue and preventing ships from disembarking in italy but on the 2nd level by introducing reforms in italy which are increasing pay put them the number of people in irregular situations and those are increasing destitution unnecessarily and thats leading to Onward Movement so sending a it was predictable thats. Veni would do this this was part of the Electoral Program during the Campaign Last year at the same time other countries are not without faute for a long time italy has criticized the european rules which main theres a disproportionate responsibility for the countries at the border and the reason that this government was elected in italy is partly because of the perception that the rest of europe doesnt do enough to support the countries at the borders jonathan says something has to do with the Election Campaign that is going now in italy do you expect the crisis to some how fade away after the stop elections if those elections are to be held you know this this will not go away catherine is absolutely right the the issue is about perception of refugees and migrants entering europe and particularly more homogeneous communities. The politicians of some of these type or using this fear this misperception of refugees as if somehow these people are not human and do not have valuable lives as well derek are you of the view that this is something which is going to continue even after the snap elections in italy. Well it certainly wont go away because 1st of all this is not just a single issue or root cause but we have a number of structural problems given the situation in africa and in the wider middle east plus an increasing pressure that comes from Climate Change that forces people to leave their homes and move further north so what we see is just sort of a the peak of the the iceberg what is happening in the near a future with migration from the south to the north and europe has to address this with a more comprehensive approach and not just with Small Coalition of the willing or Border Protection ideas of single countries or the european commission. Catherine speaking about a comprehensive approach this is obviously a very divisive issue among the countries but how can they tackle it when they disagree about everything about the reform and about the asylum system. Well that needs to be changes on 2 levels in the short term we have an ongoing humanitarian emergency in the mediterranean with the death rate the number of people dying per attempted crossing increasing all the time so that has to be dealt with through for reasons of humanitarian imperative and for that reason we argue for any country that is willing to be part of a coalition to resolve that to to get on board and those negotiations has been taking place over the last year so its not impossible its something that should be a priority after that we need long term changes and long term reform and that has to be a decision that is taken collectively so there we would propose for a restart of the discussions on the socalled dublin regulation which is the rule that governs the country that is responsible for dealing with an asylum application and i were god that we should be careful not to overestimate the popularity of the far right in most countries in europe they remain a minority and even in italy selvi ni is not the most popular politician Prime Minister calling today has higher poll ratings so what sound really benefits from is the sense of crisis so the longer these situations are treated as a crisis the more the far right benefits he also benefits from generating public hostility he even benefits from things like creating destitution among Asylum Seekers and refugees in italy because then the public turns against people so it has to be dealt with in in a calm way however hard that may be because the continual crisis framing. Propose the far right to increase power so if john if the e. U. Is to move forward you have a set of issues to be tackled. How the dublin regulation you how the asylum system what do you think should be the starting point for the well clearly its the common asylum system but it has to be linked to a different approach to africa and the middle east it has to be linked to rethinking current policies for example the e. U. Trust fund for africa and the kind of programs that have gone before this because there have been theyve been formed are designed in the europes interest and the key interest is to stop migration but whats happening in africa and middle east and many other countries is we have a rising population there the larger percent of which is young people and theyre leaving because they see no future in their own countries so what we need to do is we need to rethink European Investment in africa. Rethink our Development Programs and provide or help to provide african countries so that their youth have viable Sustainable Futures and their own country and in addition there needs to be some form of legal migration channels which has been promised by europe for many many decades which is not materialized. And the the greek and the italians have been saying that the burdens so to speak should be spread fairly among all the countries as a start up to the southern countries of the arrival points of the migration trend that should be sorting most of the burden how can that approach move forward now. When the good thing about the European Union is that its not a function limited single issue organization but a form of into dependence in which the request for a solidarity is expressed in different ways but if were going on for example ask for more support in security towards Russia Germany ones to relocate. Refugee use as an act of burden sharing in the fuel of Asylum Seekers and others simply want money and by putting all these things together the chance that we combine what has been said before about addressing the root causes protecting the border organizing a reader. Also a form of resettlement of those who applied for asylum and have been rejected because that undermines the credibility of the legal system no matter how dropping will be reformed and such a comprehensive approach has a much better. Chance to be accepted by countries with very different interests cathal europe has been we are divided over a deadlocked over the proposal to bring them in thats remembrance. Is this something that is now a turn and that everyone is willing to move beyond it. Well i think the Relocation Program was not a successful as it should have been but still 27000 people were relocated primarily out of grace and that means theres 27000 people who arent in situations of detention and suffering the humanitarian consequences of europes policy on the islands and grace and so it would be wrong to call that a to failure i think what we need now is a revival of relocation mechanisms with the countries that are willing to be part of those mechanisms just so that we can. Have a situation where ships rescue ships are able to dock and those are very much short term measures whats needed in the long term is a reform of the regulations themselves so that responsibility is shared more evenly among the Member States and not just based on where somebody arrives which will always create a sort of geographic chance that the largest extent of responsibility would lie with the countries at the borders so there is work to be done on a number of Different Levels and i think there are opportunities now with the changes in the institutions in brussels with certain political changes and the sense that some of the fantasy ideas of outsourcing all responsibility to other regions really are not going anywhere just how do you see the possibility for a consensus in europe about these issues when you have italy for example italy for example where salvini has been introducing a. Very heavy handed approach to migration to the point where he is paving the way for the right to extradite migrants and also revoke their italian citizenship isnt this something that which is just going to continue and divide you well its certainly a possibility but if you look at this spanish approach over the last 18 months there is no except for more migrants than has italy. And the number of total migrants has dropped from about 220000 of his peak in 2015 to 10000 so what we have available to us is a chance to consolidate resources movie your resources closer to where its needed to deal with migrants and refugees and and help people really in need of help this isnt a gap here and out there that could be utilized to provide assistance to recognize common humanity rather than to demonize migrants. Then rick but then when you have as the u. N. Refugee and by was agencies are saying you have the number of people trying to cross to europe has dropped by 80 percent isnt this a car that could easily be used by the far right by the by salvini in particular to say you know what its because of our hardline stance that we are fixing this problem forget about e. U. Resolutions well thats the nature of our populists campaign that you dont need to care about the facts you can always do if the numbers are high demonize things and if the numbers are low you can claim that this is just because of your hard stance and to be fair he tried very different approaches to europeanize migration policy the previous government did the exact opposite with the nostromo to help people in need wherever they could and were left alone and were told by countries that were not directly affected that they should stop this because it chose to increases the burden on european states but there is a chance how this could be you solved in the near future and this has a lot to do with money we are discussing the 7 years multi annual Financial Framework until the end of next year and the moment money is in what have you always have a way to compensate the different burdens in forms that is attractive to everyone no matter if its hungarys or one government that is demonizing refugees or countries that are directly affected by people in the mediterranean kothari the issue of refugees migrants has shaped the narrative in europe particular into 1000 of 121314 with the hundreds of thousands of people crossing into europe now europe is not the same you have breaks it and you have that the rise of the populists of the far west and were talking about the need to fix the problem of migrants when you love could not be the same again isnt this something this is going to definitely have been a huge impact on the issue of migrants in the near future. Well firstly i dont think we should talk about the problem of migrants because the real crisis within europe is the demographic crisis and if europe doesnt actually accept new populations it really will have problems and that is true for every country in europe even those that are most fervently against accepting new populations so i think what weve seen is that the extreme right has been able to exploit the situation that was provoked by the conflict in syria which led to quite a large number of people seeking protection in europe however even during that situation in 2015 the numbers of people arriving in europe were far less than the numbers seeking protection in other countries in other regions and europe could and should have managed so i dont think we should present this is something that was impossible for europe the crisis is something that was generated and exploited by particular political leaders so that may continue on the other hand we also have to remember that the extreme right has always been part of europes Political Landscape unfortunately. Im those those parties and those leaders come and go what we dont want to see is mainstream politicians technocrats officials and others absorbing the myths the misinformation and the mis presentation including the misrepresentation of Public Opinion that we have from the extremists so its partly about strategy in terms of dealing with yes the situation of making it a win win but also in terms of dealing with these Political Forces in a way that doesnt actually strengthen them. And all not i would say salvini will fortunately not be with us for ever so we also hope within italy to have a return to a more balanced approach. On other of the very pick of of the migrants crisis europe explore different possibilities like giving incentives to north african countries to police the border trying to address issues in Subsaharan Africa has that policy fades yes it has failed its largely been premised on on enforcing borders and preventing injury in to europe there has been money given that its not been given me appropriate levels or for the appropriate use of Genuine Development and less we rethink our approach to our International Commitments to International Development then then we will continue to see people seeking to enter one way or the other into europe or north america for that matter so we need to rethink we need to think our way out of the problem that the answer is a simple no or that or the creation of a fence all that happens is that misery gets shifted elsewhere or that people drown in the mediterranean is a complex problem it needs better thought. John has been talking about the need to think the approach and one of the problems that the International Community is facing is instability in libya and the irony here is that the itself is divided about how to move forward and how to solve the political crisis in libya. Well this is just one problem among many problems in which the e. U. Is divided or countries are differently affected which you dont find a comprehensive approach where they use peaks with one voice and a lot of problems are even deeper root of them to go back to the colonial history puts the blame on some countries but certainly not on all countries which causes a different discourse about is it our problem do we have to address it whos going to pay for it and that makes it extremely complicated but to go back to the question about has it something to do with the upcoming recession or the Economic Situation i dont think that this goes hand in hand that if we are doing well economically than we have a more humanitarian approach we can observe the exact opposite that for example in the United States the Klu Klux Klan and the spirit of racism was strong when the country was as prosperous as never before and we also have a situation in germany where we have a much longer time span of prosperity and still the identity of the doj from the right being islamophobia and even racist groups find support up to 12 percent of the German Parliament this is going to be my last question to catherine please cathy less than a minute do you think it would be possible in the near future to change the public sentiment in the europe and bring it back to those years when it was really receptive to the idea of providing help to those migrating to europe. Well 1st the majority of the population in europe is still strongly supportive of offering protection to refugees so this is something thats often lost in the debt debate there are there is a segment of the population and those are the people voting for the extremists trying to prevent all migration including refugees and those who need protection and i think its a matter of those mainstream parties commentators leaders trying to retain some sense of rationality humanity and accurate presentation of the debate and that may not completely change the picture some of these issues are almost like perpetual struggles but the battle to present this in the appropriate way has to continue catherine and John Campbell are a broker thank you very much indeed and looking forward to seeing you in the near future to visit the story of migrants and europe and thank you too for watching you can see the program again and its time by visiting our website dot com for further discussion go to our Facebook Page thats facebook dot com forward slash a.
