Particular and in the run up to this meeting weve seen kind of a flurry of diplomatic activity from putin as well he met with the syrian president Bashar Al Assad in syria this week and hes also been talking about libya a lot he spoke to turkeys leader this week in person and hes been making calls yesterday and today he spoke to. 3 leaders about libya and has been calling for peace there so i think hes really taking care to present himself as a key player that merkel can look to and especially as a player that is more reliable than the u. S. Russia has also taken care to kind of present the u. S. And donald trump in particular as reckless when it comes to the Iran Nuclear Deal when it comes to the recent killing of the iranian general silliman which russia also called reckless and today they will be hoping to kind of bring in germany that important partner as thomas said on the side so speaking of the Iran Nuclear Deal will go back to utah most germany russia wants to salvage this but iran has said in light of whats been happening with the u. S. Its scrapping its Nuclear Enrichment limits dictated by the agreement what can russia and germany do about the germanys foreign minister said that germany still wants the Iran Nuclear Deal but it is not willing to simply stand by and watch while iran takes step steps away from the Iran Nuclear Deal i mean its important and thats probably why one issue that will be discussed is exactly how they can try and make sure that iran complies as much as possible with the Iran Nuclear Deal another issue that is particularly well. Peace here in germany has sometimes been developing bones would we sometimes is that idea that donald trump resented that maybe another deal should be discussed a broader deal with iran that not only focuses on its Nuclear Ambitions but that includes for example its role in the region its wider role in the region and weve heard from several german politicians saying that maybe germany should also try and discuss whether that is a possibility so i do expect that in the discussions between vadim if we do not believe merkel they will also discuss whether another another deal with iran which also includes those regional ambitions could be in any way discussed and include ok emily theres a theres a lot happening today as weve been hearing what else can we expect from these talks well it seems likely that the 2 leaders will touch on north stream 2 after set us sanctions against that gas pipeline between the 2 countries were brought in december but also a particular focus today seems to be libya berlin has been pushing for a peace conference on libya in the coming weeks to take place in berlin and it seems that russia could be on side when it comes to that putin has been calling for peace hes been speaking to leaders calling for a cease fire in libya so it seems likely that putin may come out and support that conference in fact he also cautiously already supported it along with this week russia of course hasnt officially taken sides in that conflict but they have potentially been tacitly supporting. It is advance on the u. S. U. N. Backed government in tripoli with mercenaries but it seems that again theyre on libya we can be we might be seeing a united front.

For taiwans Pro Independence president has claimed victory in National Elections back size tough stance against the islands large and powerful china its the 2nd term for. The Democratic Progressive Party shes won a large majority campaigning on protecting taiwans independence against threats from beijing the main opposition candidate hun kulu conceded defeat he had advocated for closer ties with china to improve trite. Lets bring in our correspondents phoebe kong in taipei and. In the Chinese Capital beijing with you how its being people how have people been reacting to the results. Coming through. There was. It was it was all you know we dont. Really. Know was. There i was right because. I was. I want to thank those that dont want me. But based on it really even. On. What. I want to see. So history broken today in taiwan lets go to you president sighs 9 for her tough stance against china whats going to happen to that relationship in light of whats happened today in taiwan. During the past 4 years beijing has made very clear its dislike for sighing when it has ramped up pressure on taiwan on various issues cut back the number of mainland tourists coming to taiwan luring away some of the few diplomatic allies that taiwan has. Putting up economic pressure even threatening to invade the island yet all of this has not worked and has won the election this might still mean that we are going to see more of this say beijing is very ideological on this taiwan question and it has made clear previously that it is not going to be lenient or compromising on what it sees as Core National issues so i think the ideology is blocking any way off a softer off a new approach towards taiwan right now. We need to talk about hong kong in all of this i guess faye be in what way have the antigovernment protests there impacted their resulting in taiwan. You know how come pros have. The timing. Timing. Right next to me that. I would have to hire one to witness the next one because of the times but. I want. Them to listen to. What. Unified taiwan. These. Are going to. Be the this time i want to was facing and this is also not the. Kind of the taiwan come on. Come. On obviously were. Ok last question to you. How committed is china to Political Union with taiwan. Once de facto independence the fact that aging has never been able to bring taiwan under the control of the communist party has been tainting the nationalist narrative of the communist party that claims to have liberated and united the chinese nation so this is a major ideological point and all leaders since the dome have mate control over taiwan one of their key goes c jinping has also shown that he is committed to that issue and has shown the ambition to be the one leader that would bring taiwan under under beijings cointreau he wants to go into history as the man who would then according to communist historiography have accomplished the mission of the communist party so it is one of the most burning ideological issues for beiji ok monti is burning in beijing and c. B. Kong in taipei thank you both very much.
