And in Rio De Janeiro, celebrity 100 years of samba, the music that started in the slums and has stormed the worlds dance floors. Host good to have you with us. We begin with rapidly begin rapidly rising tension between turkey and the European Union. The European Parliament passed a nonbinding motion, calling on the eu to suspend membership talks with turkey because of the massive crackdown on opposition forces. Today, erdogan that, opening openly threatening to read open the floodgates for migrants in europe. Reporter the turkish president was clearly enraged, his words sounded like a threat. When 50,000 migrants reached the border town, you will wailed. What will we do if turkey opens the border gate . If this goes any further, the border gates will be opened, you should know that. Reporter his reaction came one day after the European Parliament voted by an overwhelming majority to freeze membership talks with turkey. The european Lawmakers Said the extent of the crackdown following last summers attempted coup was not compatible with democratic values. But erdogan accused of the eu of breaking promises, so now the turkish president is threatening to abandon the migration deal that was reached with brussels. What does the eu deal involved . Since march, the country has been taking back migrants and securing the borders. Europe has accepted migrants from turkey and provided ankara with additional funding, as part of the deal. It was also to include these of free travel for turkish people visiting the eu, but it never materialized. The deal marks a turning point in the refugee crisis that brought over 100 Million People into europe in 2015. Since it was signed, they have seen a decrease in migrants arriving. This is not the first time the turkish president has threatened to disrupt the deal. The German Government is trying to diffuse the situation. If one looks at the facts, we can say both sides are keeping to the agreement and we hope it will continue in the future, because it is in our mutual interest. In december, eu leaders will have a summitt where the relations with turkey are already at the top of the agenda. Host lets bring in our chief correspondent on this. Melinda, would it be right to say the German Government has issued a measured reaction to this threat . Yes, that is the correct description. She said, we need to look at the facts, and not the words. She was adamant about the fact that germany believes cooperation is in its interest. The spokesperson also said, threats are not helpful and the fact is that freezing suspension the membership talks would hurt both sides and we neeeed to keep lines of communication open. She said clearly, we want to keep talking. Host is there a feeling that president erdogan, what we are hearing from him is bluster rather than n a seriouous threa . Is the threat being taken seriously . People who are longtime observers of relations with turkey say, the rhetoric like this is not uncommon, a lot of hypothetical scenarios being bandied about right here, and they say look, erdogan says of the west needs turkey, but the country of turkey also needs the west. If so he is not easily going to terminate relations. And they also point out that it could be useful for a populist leader like erdogan to insight resentment at home and this could really be for domestic consumption. Host the German Government has said that talks with turkey should not be frozen, membership talks, unlike the European Parliament. Are there dissenting voices in the German Coalition on that issue . There have been in the past. The bavarian sister party, the christian social union, their leader said in the e summer aftr ththe crackdown that followed de coup attempt in turkey, that the eu should absolutely terminate talks with turkey, that turkey is not a Democratic State with rule of law. And he is also against the waving visas for turkish citizens, which is part of the progression that the eu has said it would negotiate. But those calls are not being repeated right now and were not hearing calls from anybody here, saying, we need to jettison this refugee agreement with turkey. 56 of germans doubt that the talks make sense though. Host i know this is speculative, but if president erdogan would come good on the threats and reopen the flow of margarets death migrants to europe, how large flow of migrants to your come out how large does that little . Lo om . There was another one, the closing down of the balkan route through southeastern europe, that was the route so many migrants took in order to get to countries like germany and that route is now closed. So even if erdogan was to make a good on his threat, we would not see the kind of numbers we had in 2015. However, even a mild increase of refugees could be problematic. We have german elections next year and the far right party in germany is making refugees a big issue. Host ok. Melinda crane, our chief political correspondent.
