A deal the two sides will now move on to negotiating a trade agreement well go live to brussels. Also coming up u. S. President donald trump celebrates his Jerusalem Initiative and right now im thinking about whats going on and the love thats all over israel and all about jerusalem. Post jewish leaders at the white house on the stimulus protest against his decision to recognize jerusalem as the capital of israel. And unesco gets a pizza the action its added to original maple styled pizza to its walls have a to list. A company thats being described as a brick. So in braggs that negotiations the e. U. And britain say they have reached an agreement that will allow them to progress to the next round of talks the announcement was made in brussels by u. K. Prime minister tourism a and European Commission president. They said theyd agreed on key issues like rights for e. U. Citizens in the u. K. And guaranteeing no hard border between Northern Ireland and the republic of ireland now they move on to negotiations about the future of trade relations between the u. K. And the e. U. And well speak to our brussels correspondent in just a moment but first lets listen to what a resume had to say in Northern Ireland we will guarantee there will be no hard border and we will uphold the belfast agreement and in doing so we will continue to pursue the constitutional and economic integrity of the United Kingdom. Is following developments in brussels and joins me now from there lax the irish border almost led to the collapse of these talks so what led to this breakthrough and what has changed. Well lets see first if its really a breakthrough on the question of the border between Northern Ireland and ireland in the document we have here it says ok avoid hard border now bear with me this is complicated they want to reach that through the over all you u. K. Relationship meaning they want to basically find the rules for this later on if they dont and this is also lined out in paragraph forty nine in here if they dont then there needs to be a specific solution between the u. K. And the e. U. And if they cant find a specific solution for that border then it says here they need to maintain full alignment with those rules of the internal market and the Customs Union all this very complicated what does it mean it basically means that if the u. K. Doesnt come up with a solution for this border a very creative solution for this border then Northern Ireland more or less stays in the Single Market maybe in the Customs Union but nothing really changes if you do that you have to put the border somewhere else between because there needs to be a border between the European Union and the United Kingdom that would be most likely in the sea surrounding ireland but thats the problem that we had this week because the d. C. U. P. So that party from Northern Island wants to avoid that at all costs they want to be treated as part of the United Kingdom so you see what we have in writing here isnt a solution at all it hasnt really changed at all theyre just kicking the can down the road ok so from what you know and i dont like the way let me let me add here sorry because we have an interesting soundbite on that from going to because of course this Northern Island border isnt the only problem that still remains so far we have a number of the various ideas. We need some all cloudy deal on how the u. K. Feast our future relations after it has left the Single Market and Customs Union right being fought this fight with todays agreement which is obviously the. Prime minister if there is a major let us remember that the most difficult challenge is still ahead. So what does is saying basically this is a plus the crime for primeness to me max but this does not sound like a ringing endorsement for whats been achieved from the e. U. Perspective in the socalled breakthrough right because as i said you know most of the problems still there just they just agreed that sufficient progress has been made but still the details will have to be negotiated and what dont risk is referring to here is of course negotiating a Free Trade Agreement with the u. K. And they basically have one year time even less for the outlines of such a Free Trade Agreement or at least an interim agreement and if you look at the Free Trade Agreements that the you have been the go sheeting in the last decade or so with malaysia theyve been on it since two thousand and ten so for seven years with japan since two thousand and thirteen with the macro Source States since two thousand and six they still have not concluded an agreement so that gives you an idea how much time usually is needed for those Free Trade Agreements and thats why dont tell us the president of the European Council says that this was more or less the easy part and now starts the hard part. Bunch of what hes saying fit a lot of open questions thank you very much for being us up to date on that story from. Lets arctic look at some other stories making news around the world polands conservatives have named a moderate ski as the countrys new Prime Minister the former finance minister replaces beata should walk in the post critics say the leadership shake up is meant to distract from a vote on friday on laws that would give the ruling party significant power over polands judicial system. Argentinas former president Cristina Fernandez tickets now has said christian charges against her are politically motivated thats after a judge in argentina called for lawmakers to drop immunity to arrest shes accused of allegedly covering up iranian involvement in a nine hundred ninety four bomb attack on a Jewish Center in bahrain as i this. Official say massive wildfires tearing through Southern California have destroyed hundreds of homes the blazes have now forced tens of thousands of people to flee for Safety Measures state highways have been closed as hot desert winds fanned the flames palestinians have called for a day of rage today in response to president Donald Trumps decision on jerusalem protests are expected after friday prayers a Senior Palestinian official said u. S. Vice president mike pence would not be welcomed visits to the palestinian territories later this month the white house has said it would be counterproductive to cancel it. Fire and fury spilling across the middle east palestinians rising up to protest romes recognition of jerusalem as israels capital. Like here in this camp in neighboring jordan where Palestinian Refugees have lived since the one nine hundred sixty seven arab israeli war palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas meeting with the countrys king to rally arab support and fight back. We reject the decision of President Trump in its entirety also in its particulars. We believe america with this position has distanced itself greatly as a political actor in the middle east because it will not get back its previous role here. But in the absence of trump its rail that comes under actual fire in many parts of the country protesters clashed with Security Forces additional troops have been deployed to the west bank as authorities brace for more violence in the coming days and many fear the situation could escalate even further after the militant group hamas urged its followers to launch a third intifada or uprising against israel but the blowback extends far beyond the middle east decision has prompted a broad diplomatic backlash Turkey Russia and the e. U. Condemned the move they say it threatens to quash hopes of resolving the conflict peacefully the german chancellor also distancing herself from trump during a meeting with the libyan Prime Minister club does this status of jerusalem needs to be resolved as part of negotiations on a two state solution for israel and thats why we want this process to be revived. So in this context we do not agree with the decision that was taken on wednesday evening. Scrambling to find a diplomatic response to the Un Security Council has called an emergency meeting for later on friday the same day as hamas has declared a day of rage. And for more on this story let me draw in my skull she is in the European Parliament a delegation for relations with both the palestinian territories and the u. S. Shes joining me from sweden welcome money today youve called the u. S. Recognition of jerusalem as israels capital as a declaration of war what do you mean by. Well it actually means that they have chosen to approach no energy into the conflict instead of trying to find a solution. We have such a strong support for a two state solution not only as was mentioned here in your program that the. U. N. Has both e. U. And the you. Have a very strong position that we must have a two state solution if we dont want to. Put. Things at stake because there are so much at stake and is just trying to to take a decision that will create conflict we dont know where they end but money does supporters of trump would say he may have in fact jump started the stored Peace Process if one were to accept that argument what could he possibly be offering the palestinians as part of a potential deal. Well i dont think that it seems to be that trump he traveled in several come christians that are out of the world he met leaders he also met with us in palestine and. He he gave the impression that he was listening to all those leaders that he met but actually he must have had a plan from the beginning that he just looks as if he is listening to the risks because. It cant be hot news for him that what hes doing not what this lighting a fire that hes extremely dangerous not only for for israel and palestine and you lose a limb but for the world actually and i dont know why he think that he should have the power to take that sort of decision and we do many in new countries including germany have strongly condemned from smoove what contribution do you think you can make to deescalate the situation. Hopefully you can do something. Im sure that we will have lost discussions as the days to come and the weeks to come. I think that its its important that the you come chris are trying to find something that could. Persuade a chum to slow down to to stop what shes actually doing now im not sure he is willing to listen i thought that to listen to the palestinians when he was there. Is a taking of the region but obviously he did not and just to to be clear that the last sort of politicians and people on the israeli side who had the same position that i have a right to my reach out of school thank you very much for talking to down the on this controversial issue thank you crystal joins me now and attending to beg that they go a season that a breakthrough in the irish would issue a socalled breakthrough that has huge implications for business thats right on radar seamless cross border traffic that is immensely important to people in the republican violent a member of the European Union and a Northern Ireland which will leave the block with the rest of the u. K. Now the details are yet to be are in doubt while some like our brussels correspondent max hall when called it kicking it kicking the can down the road the agreement against a hard border is for now a relief to the thousands who cross that line every day. Farmer John Sheridan is used to crossing from Northern Islands to the republican back it seamless theres no sign of an International Front here anywhere cross border commuters and Business Owners like john are afraid of what breaks it could mean for them after all Northern Ireland voted to remain before the agreement was announced this morning john feared what a potential hard border could bring. It would have meant customs duties and vehicle checks slowing businesses down on both sides of the border. And of course that wouldnt have been for the first time mona flood is eighty years old she clearly remembers the old border checks you know and a customer would have to come at her request was for Eleven Oclock at night he would come and stamp the book to let you back in. I would like to see the costumes back again on either side of the border because there were north and south korea days agreement will come as a relief to border residents like mona and john for now it seems the status quo will remain in Northern Ireland itll still leave for the rest of the United Kingdom but will keep e. U. Regulations to prevent customs checks socalled regulatory alignment both the republic of ireland and britain of praise the deal to avoid a hard border but for britain the greatest challenges over brics that are yet to come. So lets talk about some of these challengers with our financial correspondent car i bought in an frankfurt conrad what do investors expect will negotiating a trade deal now be as difficult as the initial divorce talks have been. Kristoff its probably going to be more difficult just think of. Canada like its. All right reza some sound issues there we apologize for that moving on chinas exports have soared over twice their predicted amount in november exports leapt to more than twelve percent much higher than the predicted five percent is a sign of strength and the worlds second biggest economy as its transitions from an investment based economy to one powered by Consumer Spending after years of slowing growth g. D. P. Is now likely to outstrip the governments official forecasts. Even in todays globally linked economies women often remain the single largest untapped economic driver a college in the indian state of roger stone has made it its mission to change that for about forty years the Barefoot College has been training and educating rural women to take control of their lives and the well being of their communities aid organizations are now even sending women from other continents to the institution to get a power for example in the use of solar energy the sun is a virtually infinite source of energy. These women have come halfway around the world to register on to learn how best to harness that power classes at the socalled Barefoot College of just beginning while those who study here can actually afford shoes they cant afford much else and definitely not a house with Electricity Supply thats why the courses here are about Solar Energy Systems in this particular class most of the students come from africa during a six month course the women learn how they can use solar energy to improve their lives in their villages. Being a minister and family in my village there are only a couple of houses with electricity. Theres no room but when im finished here my neighbors and i will finally be able to use electricity as well that a proper look on. This man started the college nearly forty years ago. A lot. More long in the beginning we also taught men but often they didnt pass their knowledge and skills on to others rather they took up new jobs and moved away from their villages women are more loyal and they have fewer opportunities and would charge women about gall magicked out about what i mean what are. The college has trained over ten thousand women now who have returned to their villages you wont find a connection to an electricity grid out here but you will find manna she graduated from Barefoot College a year ago and is currently on her way to meet a customer who owns a solar power unit. The lights come and go there seems to be some sort of problem i dont know what it could be. Manna gets to work she inspects the unit and after a few minutes shes figured out is the power storage unit with just a few twists of her screwdriver the lights are back on. You would have done it in the in our village there are about forty five houses and in twenty three of them ive installed solar electricity systems there are occasionally problems with the power Storage Units thats why im here. With bettman. At the end of the day after the sun has gone down this village should still have electricity. A. Real inspiring story now germany could be getting one step closer to a new government more than ten weeks after the general elections im reading that right that is the whole a step closer we have to wait and see now more than two months after germanys federal elections just the new america is inching closer to forming a new government this off the social democrats voted at their Party Conference to consider extending their car for a different america is conservative not the parties are set to begin what are described as exploratory talks next week im going to have to have social democrats voted in favor of the move but some remain skeptical. Let me now join our Political CorrespondentThomas Sparrow who is across the story and he joins me now from the Party Convention of tomaso social democrats voted to hold coalition talk as i mentioned but not everyone supports the idea. And thats something that we clearly saw here. Not only today but also yesterday there seems to be a divide here in the party between those who favor those open talks open exploratory talks but there are others in particular members of the youth branch of the social democrat the socalled users who are staunchly opposed to being part of a new grand coalition their arguments are basically that the s. P. D. Wouldnt benefit from being part of another grand coalition it would rather homme the party and thats something that they saw in the election on september twenty four in any case the Party Leadership the party here how decided at least to have those exploratory talks with the conservatives but they have indicated on various occasions that it is open ended that all possibilities are still on the table and these are just initial talks so theres still a long way ahead before germany will have a proper government and dumas given that this issue has become so divisive could extend the party up onto thing. The party is is one of the most important parties in germany has had splits before it has had these kinds of divides before so i dont think it will tear the party apart as such by we can say for sure that there are very very very difficult debates happening right here at the Party Conference and also happening in the rest of germany in the regional conference and meetings because it is clear that the party is not only deciding what course it will take in the next few years but also what type of policies it once cost us something in fact thats being discussed here today the program that the party would like to present forward so there are clearly different positions and different views within the party but i dont expect this to tear the party apart it is simply a very difficult moment for the party and one that the different members of the party are discussing. Thomas fowler at the s. P. D. Party convention here in berlin thank you. The pizza holds a very special place in the hearts of many not just in italy at long last its getting the recognition it deserves the United NationsCultural Organization unesco has added the original naples style pizza to its was heritage list. The people of naples have long argued that their way of making pizza is the right one and took their case to the United Nations. The petition is set the traditional preparation including tossing the dough and baking the pizza over wood in a brick oven was part of italys culture. Yes yes emperor the first pizza is a food that must be internationally recognized just like the other monuments we have in italy but it should be considered as a historical part of italian cuisine if were going to go through them you know yeah back into. The world. At unesco meeting in south korea delegates you know honestly agree that Neapolitan Pizza making was worth adding to the list of intangible treasures more objects. Are there for their craft this is probably a calm about seven. And its a decision thats gone down very well with supporters in the pizza homeland. Story going to shimmy into this recognition is important because its a victory over globalization for onto the. Pizzas made one by one in a traditional process that pizza makers have handed down from father to son so. You see them on buddy buddy. The traditional pizza margarita named after a Nineteenth Century queen gets by with just tomato sauce mozzarella olive oil and basil but the global success of pizza has also left some italians shocked at the choice of toppings in other countries. I hope this will finally prove to foreigners that this is the way pizzas made without nutella or pineapple. However you like it pizzas and of ated status is something that will have connoisseurs celebrating all over the world.
