Windsor of course from all over the u. K. You have the super royal fans if you want to have been camping already for days and today there were joined by many others realigning up to secure the best places to see the royal couple when theyre coming and when theyre leaving the cost was hospital and wife and then you have many guests from all over the world when i came to windsor i expected the first two groups so the locals and the big friends but i didnt expect people from so many countries here were really enjoying the atmosphere and the electric atmosphere i have to say right im going to talk a little bit later about that the global appeal of the royal family but charlotte first its been a lot of family drama in the lead up to this talked about that there has indeed the big question has been will legan markel dad walk down the aisle weve heard today very sadly from meghan that no he wont said its going to be Prince Charles harrys dad hes going to get that on a hes going to take her up to harry at the top of the aisle theres been so much
backwards and forwards though about this so much a scandal really the press hounded makers that he is said to have then suffered from Heart Problems have undergone Heart Surgery apparently just the pressure just got a little bit too much but its not just about macons dad its also her brother and sister who was in trouble in the build up to this wedding youve got her hospice to samantha who is apparently writing a tell all book about Meghan Markle thats meant to be quite fiery and then youve got her Health Problems with the skinny and here in the build up to the wedding rush an open letter telling harry actually maybe meghan isnt the woman for you he later retracted those comments and said he he got a bit over emotional he was upset that he wasnt invited to the wedding but there is going to be a lot of a lot of attention tomorrow on exactly whether or not this drama is going to continue is just not michaels mom whos going to be at the ceremony but we know some of her. More strange relatives are in windsor and its going to be very interesting to see whether or not they they read the heads during the day but lets focus on the positive for the for just
a moment to georg or Prince Charles who will walk the bride down part of the aisle very elegant solution i have to say. It is indeed and that is what many people here told me its a just a fabulous way of welcoming her to the royal family and helping her out of this a big dilemma that she now will have to walk herself basically. The into the church but then theres also a group of people who said look the fact that she did it is walking a quite a bit of a way by herself surrounded by page boys and bridesmaids all of them children is still a very positive sign its something new that hasnt happened yet it may be a feminist statement but lets lets face it also theres a lot of room for interpretation of everything basically here so for instance the fact that harry may shave for the wedding day has already been debated up and down the local and International Media all right well on that Point Charlotte why does
everyone care so much for people like a fairy tale dont they this is the goal here is getting her prince and beyond that shes being seen as a modernizing fake and shes going to bring a refreshing new stance on the royal family shes american is going to be this transatlantic i mean americans dont need convincing a lot of the time to watch the Royal Wedding but the fact that shes one of the very end t. V. Stars i think and a bit of Something Special for this pos you know shes a hollywood actress and of berry famous t. V. Series seats no celebrities are exposed at the wedding in fact theres going to be no real politicians its just going to be Friends Of Harry and meg and thats not to say that they just because shes bringing something something more than and fresh to the royal family doesnt mean that people dont all say love the pomp and circumstance in the tradition where of course going to get a lot of thoughts mario as well but i wouldnt be doing my duty if i did point out that not everyone is very excited about this there are a lot of republicans in the u. K. Who are quite thinking and were going to talk to that four into with gay yorker because to charlottes point youre not seeing it in windsor where you are but not everyone shares the love for the real family right. I have to say its very hard to find people who are not into the state which is not surprising because you have called the fans flocking in the day before the big day i met one gentleman who pointed out that he things that he point even prochoice means that look there just to be clear this is not how the whole country feels not Everybody Loves this pomp and it is concerned about the cost and in fact my colleague. Big it must talk to one of the leading causes and in the Republican Movement and heres what he had to say. Those with well candidates ability we hear wins that everybody is happy everybody was celebrating whats not to like well i mean this is a celebration of the monarchy the morning here is part of our constitution so this is i mean this is politics really this is you know the. Political convention if you
like for the family and you know when im happy for the couple they get a married but theyve decided to turn into a public parade which is going to cost the Taxpayer Millions of pounds and which is designed to shore up support for the royal family you know doesnt it is a little bit stingy to say it cost a lot of money i mean people are here people are celebrating and one argument of people who are for the royal family is also that it brings in two or isnt it brings in money i just got of applied back from Visit Britain yesterday thats the agency that promotes pain as a Tourist Destination i said you know give me all the evidence that the monarchy brings to us and they couldnt give me anything. Now all id say in terms of stingy id say to any german taxpayer would you be happy to pay for the wedding of your president offering americal to a huge lavish party to the tune of you know millions a year as of german taxpayers money of course he wouldnt say why should we have
to put up with it you know we need to stop taking it for granted that the we fund the private lives of the royal family but then again you do need to fund somebody who is the Head Of State which is here the queen said he didnt need to have you know somebody who represents the country countries it might as well be the queen right oh no i mean the point is we want to get rid of the monarchy so that we have as in germany as in. Ireland as well we have a Head Of State whose account is in one of the country and we still have a Prime Minister but we have somebody accountable and also doesnt cost a fraction of the money to the war found the cost of the annual cost is about three hundred forty five Million Pounds every year i mean the Cost Isnt The Issue really isnt its a symptom of an institution that is not account. You how some of these count will be can be thrown out of office if they get it wrong they dont spend that much money because they know theyll get in trouble but people dont seem to care that much i mean there is a lot of support for the royal family and especially at the moment its been rising
one nomen hasnt been rising i mean weve had seven years of major oil events in the polling is designed to say now as it was seven years ago ten years ago and twenty years ago the polling out this week two thirds of people in this country dont care about this wedding on interested the vast majority of people dont want their tanks is going to this wedding and i think what we are going off of were not a nation of oil is the nomination of republicans yet but were a nation of people to have a monarchy and most of us dont care do you have any message for the royal couple. Say you know good luck enjoy your day but please pay back the six Million Pounds were going to be spending on your wedding greg smith thank you very much. Our ad so complains there about the cost of the where they are it will certainly one of the most expensive weddings of all time the wedding app bride book has done to break down the cost of the venue is an estimated Four Hundred Thousand Euros most of that going towards a Luxury Market it will cost them more than half
a million to keep the guests out wined and dined and make an marcos dress could run to more than Three Hundred Forty Thousand Euros but shes paying that and there are many more big bills to pay but then factor in security thats expected to cost the british taxpayers around Thirty Four Million euro that makes a grand total of more than wait for it thirty six Million Euros i gave york i want to bring you back in how beefed up this security where you are and is the british taxpayer getting their moneys worth. Id say at the moment the security is still very discreet ive seen a couple of Police Officers ive seen helicopters stooping over when some of what i havent seen the kind of Police Operation which is supposed to be the biggest Police Operation this country has seen in recent history and that is to come tomorrow when basically the whole City Of Windsor will be sealed off like an
airport where you only and a via Security Checks you have all your backs checked theres Thirty ThousandPolice Officers deployed into into a winter in and around so its a very tight Security Operation that is up to come all right now charlotte we dont have a royal family here in germany but you would be able to tell by all the royal fans that weve got thousand a real family there are some descendants us on the king around there were occasion to make their way into the top of the press in the absence of the proper Monica Gentlemen that royal fans have to look out sweat many brits and i met one such woman tucked away in a in a small town in Northern Germany lets have a.

No box with all this fuss about the British Royal family im left with one big question. So youre such big fans of the British Royal family do you really wish
there was a rule family here in germany no. No. No no no no no no no we actually have a german royal family but how should i put it exactly the best. I could not imagine that i stored with the flag with the american on. That. Sorry germany britain wins this time every year and then. Great stuff show thank you for bringing us the sort i think theyre now in windsor where you are gay or go one night to go before the big event do we know what title the queen has decided to give them as their wedding present. Well meghan would get officially the title her Royal HighnessPrinces Henry of wales but youll only have the title if shes standing next to a hosp and the title of the actual title as she would get is if the queen grounds
her grandson the title of a jude and then she would become a duchess and carnley rates are high is that she could become the duchess of sussex but that will have to see how i did and windsor and with me in the studio charlottes tell some phil thank you so very much and have fun tomorrow. Right now to our other top story german chancellor Angela Merkel and russian president Vladimir Putin have tried to smooth over some of their differences today at talks in the russian resort town of sochi the two leaders who dont see eye to eye on many issues rekindled hopes of peace in Eastern Ukraine putin said that diplomats on both sides would look again at options for deploying a Multinational Peacekeeping force in the region the german leader has been left scrambling after u. S. President trump pulled out of the iran deal threatened to impose steel tariffs and pressured her to pull out of a Lucrative Gas Pipeline Project well at their post summit News Conference merkel
declared their germany had a strategic interest in getting on well with russia rather than the somewhat chilly relations of recent times. She speaks fluent russian. And he speaks fluent german. Yet they still struggle to understand one another in the past few years now of all people donald trump is changing that the u. S. President s unashamedly anti european Foreign Policy is forcing germanys chancellor to look elsewhere for allies instead of relying On Washington For Example In Moscow which hasnt exactly been her favorite hunting ground. We have a strategic interest in good relations with russia and even during the most difficult times i supported for example the continuation of the Nato Russia Council and that the new to you remains in contact i believe talking to each other is about most importance but on the need for absolute fifty germany and in fact the e. U. As a whole are on the same side as russia on certain issues both sides want to save the Iran Nuclear Deal even without the u. S. And both consider the u. S. Moving its embassy to jerusalem a huge mistake but a few things stand in the way of getting too cozy the biggest stumbling blocks are russias illegal an exception of crimea from ukraine a move that is not being recognized by most nations and russias overall aggression towards ukraine. In the case of the former russian Double Agents sergei script who was poisoned in london has also triggered tensions russian president putin claims russia is innocent in the whole affair offering his own insight. You know the experience that. If a military great agent had really been used the man would have died on the spot trip but youve been and. Maybe because the last time the two leaders met things werent so friendly this time at their meeting in sunny sochi on the black sea the
russian leader wanted to leave a better impression by saying it with flowers. Now lets find out if that is going to help with highness or autumn might see is a political analyst and expert on russia a very good evening so if youre happy here with us flowers smiles the optics of two leaders are trying to make up for less less warm times is president trying to reason behind this. Book to some extent i think it is about im more impressed by the the differences that we have seen surfacing at the Summit Conference really knocked and put in then the confluence of interests and. Thought so just a big problem you know that we have these differences well lets talk about one of the big problems one of the thorns in the relating the bilateral ation between germany and russia of course Eastern Ukraine the ongoing conflict there they seem to be getting together and trying to find
a solution there i dont see any evidence of that whatsoever as you mentioned in the uptake there is talk about the United Nations a peacekeeping mission but of course this is nothing new this actually has been the proposal about ukrainians for several years and then use of temper of last year or put in the table this idea but ever since and really a nothing has happened because you cannot agree on the modalities of it so do you think this was just Window Dressing then today well i think this is just a restatement of position and of course is the same as with the commitment the commitment by both sides to the full and complete implementation of the minsk to an agreement there to has not been any progress whatsoever right ok so this might be confidence Building Measure but well have to see if that materializes into something concrete also high on the agenda of course is the Iran Nuclear Deal both sides are signatories to the deal but support continued to support the deal so do
you think that they will keep the nuclear. Iran nuclear deal a life well that depends very much on the iranians a but theres a joint position as you just outlined the three European Powers germany france and the u. K. As well as the russian of course china they want to maintain the agreement and it depends very much on whether or not the europeans and russia can persuade the iranians to stick to the agreement so the other thing that they dont see eye to eye on is of course syria do you see them reaching an agreement on that well there again though the differences are quite quite apparent to me because putin is the quite intent on keeping assad in power and of course thats the surface at the meeting in sochi that russia would like germany to take a substantial role in the. Reconstruction of syria
so in other words its almost ironic that russia is responsible for the large scale destruction of cities in syria and germany is supposed to be paying for the restatement of it going but what youre saying. America listening very very difficult and i find because of course on the one hand shes dealing with this deteriorating transatlantic relationship with the Trumpet Ministration and is she trying to pivot towards russia and make up for some of that well i dont think so because this would be a very dangerous road to take very problematic because it would convey the notion that germany in cooperation with other European Powers and russia is a trying to confront it out to the states and that would be a very big mistake to convey the impression and a certain it would be a bigger stick to the substance of the to do it shes going to have us on
a mindset political analyst. Expert on russia thank you sir for wayne thank you.
