A deal but on the 31st we must get the brics it done so that the country can move all i dont see how it comes to being broken down if they are happening to take. In the days to continue its this deal we all now. Know agreements. That extensions must speak quietly so the promise to the mal side is going to think about it. Also coming up tonight Unanswered Questions here in germany over a syrian man who rammed a truck into a line of cars was terrorism the motive because the indian chinese have detained the person behind the wheel of the truck at the moment we are investigating the reason for the collision and of course Everything Else necessary to determine what happened here what vanishes. Into our viewers on p. B. S. In the United States and all the. In the world welcome we begin the day with a phone conversation between the british Prime Minister and the german chancellor and the uproar that started after they both hung up Prime MinisterBoris Johnson spoke with chancellor Angela Merkel earlier today about the u. K. s latest and last minute plan for leaving the European Union last minute because neither the u. K. Parliament nor the European Union has approved the plan and the u. K. Have scheduled to leave the e. U. In just 23 days a leak by someone in the Prime Ministers office claimed that miracle told johnson that a deal no longer looks probable a radical change from what miracle has repeatedly said before or this afternoon the German Government said there has been no change in germanys brags that position was the leak in london was it designed to start a blame game or the Prime Minister today continued with his message that breaks it will happen on october 31st deal or no deal and we dont know if that played a role this afternoon when johnson met but the head of the European Parliament david sensibly what we can confirm is that after meeting with Boris Johnson its actually told reporters that talks designed to reach a deal before october 31st have made no progress. As i told Prime Minister johnson. The European Parliament will not agree to a deal at all costs. We will not agree to a deal that undermines the good friday agreement and the Peace Process all compromise the integrity of a single market. All right so weve also got the head of the European Parliament saying no progress has been made in brics and ago she ations us bill and our resident brett said analyst Alex Forrest Whiting to break things down for so all right weve got the European Parliament head saying no progress and weve got that phone call that happened today between johnson in miracles do we know. What exactly was said between the 2 leaders no we dont know we know that Boris Johnsons official spokesman said that the conversation was frank and we know that an unofficial reports of was briefed to the british political media in which they said that an angle or merkel sees a brecht deal is overwhelmingly unlikely unless london accepts that Northern Ireland must stay in the e. U. Customs union and thats to prevent a whomp border returning between Northern Ireland and the republic of ireland to not something that the British Government has said they cannot allow because the u. K. Includes Northern Ireland the cunt have one part of it staying in the Customs Union 2 with this is going to need someone in the Prime Ministers office leaked information that supposed to be confidential to the media whats been the reaction from germany and the European Union did to this link where angloamerican spokesperson said yes this conversation this phone conversation took place early this morning but they will not divulge anything that was said because it was a private conversation many people who know merkel and who have watched michael over the years would say this is not the type of language or tone that she would use because she has been very keen to try to show that she would do everything to accommodate the u. K. To make sure that there is an orderly brecks it but no but to it again who is an ally of merkel and he is chairman of the German ForeignAffairs Committee tweeted that is no new german position on brics it frankly a deal on the basis of johnsons proposals until october the 31st has been unrealistic from the beginning and yet the e. U. Has been willing to engage blaming others for the Current Situation is not fair play and many people in brussels seem to believe that this is all part of a blame game lets just take a look at this angry tweets from the e. U. Council president donald tusk he tweeted Boris Johnson directly and said whats its. Stake is not to winning some stupid to blame game at stake is the future of europe and the u. K. As well as the security and interests of all people you dont want to do you dont want an extension you dont want to revoke quo vadis which means where are you going you know there are many in particularly brics it is in the u. K. Who think this is another example of europe doing everything to stop the u. K. From brick sitting and we have to look at this now this is coming from the group levy you we didnt win 2 world wars to be pushed around by a crowd yet i mean this its gotten a lot has. People saying that theyre using the word kraut youve also got the german chancellor giving what could be understood as a hitler salute or greedy. Whats whats behind this but because were talking about a blame game today we know that briggs it is scheduled to take place are told with 31st if there is a deal but do you think that someone inside the Prime Ministers office planted leaked that on purpose today to have us talking about whos blaming who did what we know that Boris Johnson has one person in particular whos behind him and on the street thats his special adviser Dominic Cummings and he is somebody who was behind a very successful leave the official leave campaign which is the advice that referendum won by those who want to exit the e. U. He is now in downing street prepared to do pretty much anything to get the u. K. Out of the e. U. And that is why over and over again we are having Boris Johnson saying we will leave the e. U. Will not go but the 31st even though i now think and many people now think it is looking increasingly unlikely because of what weve seen today today and over the past few days you are you and many many others say it looks unlikely and yet if you look at Boris Johnsons twitter feed today we sold hundreds. Videos with him saying bragg sit will have been deal or no deal on october 31st now we know that the British Parliament has passed legislation that says that cannot happen he has to ask for a delay if there is no deal is the Prime Minister is hes signaling with things with his twitter feed that hes going to break the wall come up with a firm just government has said time and time again they will abide by the little they have to abide by the little you know there has been talk about is there a way for them to get out of this remember the Supreme Court in the u. K. Confirmed what parliament has said that it has to request a brechts it to lay an extension if he cannot get a deal by next weekend this Council Meetings and events no deal he has to offer this extension will he have 5 by the middle who are well i would have thought so but what hes trying to do is hes proving to everyone that he will take the u. K. Out of the e. U. At some point it just may not be on october the 1st its amazing theres 23. 00 days until the end of this month and here we are talking about a plan that has no support and there hasnt been a request were delayed amazing i was forced wanting as always alex thank you. Germany say it is looking but they have not completely ruled terrorism as a motive for what happened last night a man. In the west. Police were able to detain the driver. Who has lived here in germany since 2015. Say they are still trying to determine if. This is the truck that rammed into several cars in the western german city of lemberg on monday Police Believe the person at the wheel pulled the trucks original driver out of his cab there was immediate speculation that the case might be connected to terrorism but federal officials have dismissed that possibility for now. My latest information says that at the moment theres no grounds to say theres a terrorist background to this event that is the status at the moment that. The truck driver was a 32 year old Syrian National the man arrived in germany in 2015 and was apparently known to police for assault and drug charges. The truck at the moment. The reason. Police searched 2 apartments last night they collected possible evidence including mobile phones and u. S. B. Sticks the investigation is ongoing and prosecutors say they cant yet give any information on a possible motive. I would be here the big table now is roughly able song a terrorism expert with the German Institute for international and Security Fears what feels good to see you again so what are investigators what are they doing to determine whether or not this was terrorism because theyre saying it probably wasnt well there we need turning every stone in the persons past i mean theres been searches of his apartment they took all his devices they probably trail for all his communications now to see where there is any any evidence that hes been in touch with the radical elements but so far we know there hasnt been any indication so far i mean what we do know tonight is that the police say that the suspect does have a criminal record but i mean isnt this really a big leap to say that someone a former refugee who has a criminal record in this country could possibly be a terrorist thats making a big jump and. Well weve seen in recent years in general that there has been a growing number of petty criminals who turn to terroristic groups or terroristic activities to somehow find a new purpose in life so this is something we have seen in recent years but this doesnt mean by no means that you know the vast majority of radicals or the vast majority of people have pretty cripples have anything to do with each other i mean its it can happen in individual cases but in this particular case we dont have an indication but yes we have had other cases where that trajectory was actually happening and since this incident happened last night social media has been full of people speculating about the motive of the driver we have these knee jerk reactions from people who want to say so hes syrian arrived in 2015 he has to be an islamist terrorist what is the best strategy to deal with this i mean there are conspiracy theories everywhere it seems well its a real dilemma i mean not to talk about it all theyre just kind of keeps these people in the echo chambers on the other hand of course the more we talk about it the more of course in some way we confirm some kind of interpretation they know and hopefully people are listening we say we dont know when they take it in and they dont just kind of have this preconceived idea and i want to hear the rest it is an m. R. I. I mean i think the german media in general has been quite responsible with this one so across the board was seen lets wait lets give them time to find out and lets discuss it when we have some evidence. I think thats the best that we can do politicians have done the same and if there are some extremists in their own circles who want to confirm each other in there for the bubbles what do you make of the fact that those leaders are looking at the possibility that you know he used this vehicle as as a weapon and that was part of the crime are we seeing an increase in that i mean it seems that we have. Yes like with this kind of. Connection with petty crime and radicalism since his sticky yes weve seen this increase over the last 5 years. But again you know we should not fall into the trap of wanting to see the same things all over again and in this case it seems if it was in any case intentional so improvised the main apparently only just got the truck and drove a few meters before crashing into cars so it might have just as well be him not able to drive the truck and causing a crash for that very reason so its really very very farfetched at the moment so right or wrong with the German Institute for international and Security Affairs as always we appreciate you coming in sharing your insights thank you. In what simberg a european interior ministers theyre making a fresh attempt to break an impasse over migration they want more European Union countries to sign of or a plan to more evenly distribute refugees throughout the e. U. Europe is currently seeing a rise in arrivals via the mediterranean and in previous efforts to resettle them would have led to deep divisions within europe. Well this summit is happening against the backdrop of warnings about another huge wave of migrants reaching europe via turkey largely due to the fighting in Northern Syria and the turmoil in iraq germanys interior minister horst says that he fears the numbers could be even larger than what we saw in 2015 but sentiment has changed here in germany since the country began welcoming over a 1000000 refugees that year. But hes only fled syria from bolen in 2015 in almost half a decade his life has changed dramatically and the country here right in with it. Beginning with michaels famous i can say weve done so much we can do this the landmark a new turkey deal to prevent refugees entering the e. U. Via turkey more controls more transfer centers the writings of anti migrant sentiment and now the latest plan to accept more migrants rescued from the mediterranean but is germany ready for more asylum seekers. 30 year old behaved works with the Association Start with a friend creating bonds between germans and migrants he says the country is ready but refugees still face all the obstacles that site i wasnt instance from vice. Feel since 2015 for example many things have become more difficult. Decisions have been made which prevent integration like the tightening off rules on family reunification share for. Having enough without their families or refugees and migrants here cant fully integrate. And they cant properly start a new life in the new country. Can. Start i know its late. And. Can oust the architect of the 2060 migration go between the e. U. And turkey says germany has the means to take in more refugees but says its hard to predict if society will give the green light to policy in 2015 germany i think surprised itself with its willingness to mobilize all of society not just the government and welcome a huge number of people what would happen if there is another few 100000 people in turkey and pressing on to greece we dont know 1st the heat the past 4 years have been a learning process by for him and for germany. Does van make it and germany has learnt that when migrants all refugees are given enough support when they arrive then they will quickly give a lot back from their hearts and become a part of this society. I am tired of the success of. On the other hand i think for example some germans some people here havent properly observed history and havent learned from its mistakes found in fairly good and. That means marginalization again hate and the election of a racist again and that is not a good sign that this is session. You cant do it anymore you guys cant even think with the Chinese Government censoring everything i write. Is not going to be a bad pick movie for us its so wrong you know i mean we live in a time when the only movies that is American Kids go see are ones that are approved by china yet its like china is the new n.
