President ial candidates, clinton and trump, weighing in on this. What are you hearing from france . Max the french are very careful, which is not surprising. Theres one thing.

On november 13, the attacks in paris s and saint denis, and the attacks on charlie hebdo. It is the first in the comes to mind. But the foreign minister and president were very careful to say everything is still on the table, all possibilities. Were not ruling anything out. They have experience with that. As you remember, last year with germanwings, nobody could have imagined that the actual reason that came out in the end, it was one pilot locking himself into the cockpit and hammering the plane against the mountain wall in the alps. Theres always the possibility of something that could unexpectedly be honest on earth unearthed, but experts think it is more probable this was a terrorist attack.

Reporter a lot of bad news around Deutsche Bank. Scandals and huge losses. Investors are fed up with germanys biggest lender, venting their anger at the annual general meeting in frankfurt today. The new chief executive is taking the heat. He admits the changes are demanding, but they will be worth it. One decision, shareholders refused a change to the system of bonuses for the top management. Reporter the protests outside Deutsche Bank may not quite be on the same scale as previous years, but that doesnt mean shareholders are not upset with management. There is no dividend. How can you be happy with that . Wherever there have been financial problems in the world, Deutsche Bank was involved. Last year, deutsche posted a record loss of 6. 8 billion euros, caused primarily by setting aside reserves to pay its horrendous legal bills. A lot of people are asking just how the bank plans to actually make some money in the future. The shareholders need positive news from the report.

With all caution, i say we can see an end to our legal problems. Reporter cryan is optimistic several court cases will be bound up this year, but that means right now Deutsche Bank is still taking care of its past rather than looking to the future. Reporter shareholders may be voicing displeasure with Deutsche Bank, but whether their voices are heard is another matter entirely. The results of the votes do not oblige the bank to do anything, but perhaps coceo john cryan, set to become the sole ceo of the bank, would be wise to listen.

Reporter German Chemicals giant bayer is launching a takeover bid for monsanto. It has artie met with management at the u. S. Firm to discuss. Monsanto has a market cap of 42 billion, and reviewing the proposal. Low Commodity Prices are forcing Agrochemical Companies toonso cdate, but investors dont really like the proposal. Time to turn to our correspondent on wall street, who covers this topic. Monsanto investors are quite nervous. What else did they make of this news today . Reporter well, first of all the stock went up by a good 8 when news broke, but by the end of the day only an increase of 3. 5 . A lot of details are still unknown, especially what price bayer might be willing to pay. There was talk about 42 billion or more. Overall, it would be welcome news for monsanto. Investors, if the company would be sold, the business recently was struggling on a different angle. They are running out of options, as we heard that all the competitors have pretty much merged. So in general, it would be seen as a positive if monsanto finds a partner. Reporter on top of that, the European Union is debating whether to ban or not been or not ban glyphosate, a very important herbicide and source of revenue for monsanto. Can the company do without it . Reporter for sure, it is not a Good Development for monsanto, what is happening with glyphosate. On the other side, they lost patent protection for that already quite a while ago, and it is not their only revenue driver. Monsanto makes more money with seeds, especially corn seeds, soy seeds, but that business slow down recently quite a bit. They are struggling to enter new markets, they are losing some revenue with markets already. What they are experimenting with is digital farming, but so far that has not been a big revenue driver. But we should not forget, its not necessarily the herbicide, but the seed business where most of the revenue from monsanto is coming. That area, they are still the number one producer in the world. Reporter about bayers bid for monsanto. Thank you very much for the update. In december, politicians in paris agreed to bring down global emissions to couner Climate Change in many areas, including transport. But shipping and aviation are not a part of that. Now, a report issued today at the International Transfer forum in germany suggests the shipping industry is heading for more emissions in the coming years. Reporter larger ships, more modern engines, that is the shipping industrys formula for lowering emissions. But as the industry grows rapidly, the International Transport forum says that higher efficiency alone will not do the job. The emissions from shipping will probably rise from 50 to 250 when it comes to co2, for example. So shipping will cause a rise in emissions. If shipping once to be carbon neutral, wants to be carbon neutral, a lot of new policies would need to be put in place. Reporter these floating titans harbor a dirty secret. Once they are in International Waters where National Laws do not apply, many run on dirty heavier fuel. So far, they have confined themselves to collecting emissions data from individual ships. The data about Oil Consumption for one year. Then the information goes to the respective shipping company, and the shipping company goes to the government. So the government has a responsibility to their five. Verify. Reporter but with that kind of buckpassing, implementation of International Agreement could be hard. As long as ships are in a report, flag ships have an interest in keeping emissions low. But once they go out of into International Waters, that interest vanishes. Airlines are rising to the challenge instead. They are phing for a mandatory carbon offsetting scheme to avoid a chaos of differing national regulations. A whole raft of different schemes, which would be applied differently to Different Airlines in different ways, at different times. They may make you think twice about one route, and not at all about another route. This would be extreme the damaging for the industry, and is something we must avoid. Reporter the Airlines Hope to have a firm agreement in place by september. Anchor thank you very much. The egyptian Civil Aviation minister has said the crash of that egypt airplane with 66 people on board is more likely to be the result of a terror attack than mechanical failure.
