europe today needs what fdr did in 1933, we need a new deal for europe. and unless we create an alliance across national borders, and across the standard party political divisions, we will fail. the only beneficiaries will be those who turn one proud people against the other, northern europeans against the southern europeans, the europeans against the africans, or the syrians. and, indeed, europeans against europeans. politics is very much about emotion as well as rationality and logic. when you put forward your proposition and to flesh out a little bit, you have talked about a new international monetary system that must be created, and international wealth fund. you've talked about an international digital currency they could ensure that your new fair world of finance would have its own sort of electronic currency. all of this, i would put you, doesn't get to the emotional heart of where politics is today. it is those people who are talking about the dangers of mass immigration, those who are talking about the need for secure borders — they're the peop

allies in europe hold 28 american operating bases across europe. these bases in europe are not only for europe. they enable the u.s. to project wider middlethe east and accor for -- africa. example, the u.s.-africa command is based not in africa but in germany. operates fleet which from the baltic sea to enter the cap is headquartered in naples, italy. if u.s. troops are wounded in iraq or afghanistan, they are flown to quit treatment in germany. thinking about the value of what i am reminded of secretary mattis once told me. that never in his entire career had he fought a war without nato allies at his side. u.s. never has to fight alone. week, we marked the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks on the united states. attacks, nato invoked our collective defense clause for the first and only time. , hundreds of thousands of european and canadian soldiers have fought alongside the united states in afghanistan. 1000 have paid the ultimate price. , nato allies continue to stand with the united states. not only in afghanistan but also in the global coalition

she says, i believe the soul of europe is humanity and if we want to retain this soul, then europe can't simply decouple itself on the need and the suffering of others. and those remarks, i suspect, suffering of others. and those remarks, isuspect, were suffering of others. and those remarks, i suspect, were pointed directly at you and your policies. you catch your determination to end the immigration and get rid of the illegal immigrants in your country as something that will solve italy's crime problem, solve many of italy's economic problems but i put it to you that many people believe that you that many people believe that you are also motivated by a form of racism. racism and which is perhaps best expressed by your desire to get rid of the roma in italy who are not formal italian citizens. you have called for a new census of all the roma. you said, unfortunately, we will have to keep the italian roma because we can't expel them but the rest must go. but you know what this is reminiscent of? you know what this reminds many europeans of? it reminds many europeans of? it reminds them o

and it played an important role in europe. powerful and playing an important part in europe. with the greatest respect, that was in the 80s and 90s, and here we are in 2018 — yes you are in power at a minority government with an uncertain future. my question to you is that you change the trajectory for centre—left social democratic politics? because in most of europe, these parties, like yours, are in disastrous shape. i wouldn't say disaster, but bad. look, social democracy was a 40% party, 40% of the vote everywhere, everywhere. and now we are a party of 20% of the vote, everywhere. for sure, this is not going to be changed overnight. but portugal and spain can represent the renewals of social democracy. i think it is an opportunity. here is an interesting comment from an analyst who has been consulting for the spd, the social democratic party in germany, michael broening, he says "social democratic parties in europe have forgotten how to mobilise." we see the far right mobilising, we even see the out and out left represented by people likejeremy corbyn in the uk, mobil

europe will recover as well. anna: let me ask you about your long-term view on the dollar. what it means very long-term, the use of the dollar as a reserve currency, the eu are trying to circumvent the dollar market. is going to take a long time to get there. it has signaling potential for markets, doesn't it? >> i think this is a really long-term story. it is nothing you can trade-off over the next few weeks or the next couple of months. it will be something to keep in mind. ultimately, the u.s. dollar makes about 63% of global ethics reserve. that dollars being used way too much in transactions. even more in trade. most commodities are priced in dollar. it is only a few percent of eu actual trade. therefore europe has a real incentive to try using other currencies to exchange commodities. the fact they signed a deal with china and russia -- you have russia, the eu, and china all agreeing they want to try doing something to move away from the dollar, to move around u.s. sanctions. this is a significant step long

the whole of europe is a magnet? the whole of europe is a magnet for african youth. go to senegal, look at the tv, that is the magnet. they don't need anything more than that. when your rival, mr quesada says this, he says it's fundamentally not for spain to absorb these people looking for a better life in europe. we have to say no even if it is not politically correct to do so. what is your response? we make a clear distinction between asylu m we make a clear distinction between asylum seekers and migrants who don't have the right to a silent. we have to make a clear and quick distinction among them and we have to send back to people who don't deserve asylum. people have to understand that with our demographic, we need migrants, but we need migrants in a regular and organised way. i wonder whether you listen to the voices, i picked this up listen to the voices, i picked this up from the spanish press the other day, one typical voice from the south of your country, from a place close to a detention centre, it is a 34—year—old hilda, a construction worker said thi

it is all set up in europe's favour. the crowd here are certainly back in europe. the partisan crowd with the players and the atmosphere, it is certainly benefiting europe. the united states are benefiting europe. the united states a re really benefiting europe. the united states are really struggling. they are up against it. you wonder what they can do to try and turn things around. we know they haven't won and european soil in 25 years. they do have the likes of tiger woods in their ranks who of course won his first tournament in five years but he seems to have struggled. he so often doesin seems to have struggled. he so often does in this team format at the ryder cup. europe looking to extend their winning run on home soil to six tournaments, should they be able to hold on in three of the format of this morning heading into this afternoon's four matches to come as well, they will be sitting pretty on the leaderboard well, they will be sitting pretty on the leaderboa rd tonight. well, they will be sitting pretty on the leaderboard tonight. that would certainly se

mcilroy who combined to put europe on top. formula one heads to sochi with lewis hamilton topping the time sheets in practise for the russian grand prix. mourinho picks pogba this weekend — but with a warning — "no one is bigger than the club". not bigger than anyone. and i have to defend that. hello, and welcometo the programme. . . you join us on the opening day of the biggest team event in golf... the ryder cup. more than 6,000 fans packed out le golf national grandstand this morning — perhaps the first time the opening session has been preempted by an icelandic thunder clap... that wasn't the only first though. as ben croucher reports. as monuments go, they seldom get grander than this, the ryder cup in all of its iconic majesty. justin rose. this was before a ball was even struck. a morning where nerds can get the better of the world's bessemer more specifically, a got the better of your‘s. this tee shot set the tone. it all went swimmingly for our friends across the pond even when they did not find the green, it

she says, "i believe the soul of europe is humanity and if we want to retain this soul, then europe can't simply decouple itself on the need and the suffering of others." and those remarks, i suspect, were pointed directly at you and your policies. you couch your determination to end the immigration and get rid of the illegal immigrants in your country as something that will solve italy's crime problem, solve many of italy's economic problems, but i put it to you that many people believe that you are also motivated by a form of racism. a racism which is perhaps best expressed by your desire to get rid of the roma in italy who are not formal italian citizens. you have called for a new census of all the roma. you said, "unfortu nately, we will have to keep the italian roma because we can't expel them, but the rest must go." but you know what this is reminiscent of? you know what this reminds many europeans of? it reminds them of the darkest days of europe in the 1930s and ‘40s. it reminds them of fascism. well, what do you say then? what do you say... 0k... when you talk of all romas, but

times the size of europe so europe should focus on africa. and who can help europe never china so europe is going to work with china instead of opposing china because america because of china if you don't mind we're going to go through all three of those adams step by step but we'll start with trump. you mentioned w t o he wants to pull america out of the w here he was skeptical of their concessions from the very beginning when he became president if that actually happens if america is out of there we're going to zation what would that mean for w t o and for the global economy here actually are some good news for you. the good news is the rest of the world won't carry on with w t o with or without the united states and just a few days ago i had a conversation with mr pascal lamy the former head of the word biggio for many years and he said kishore the wu can carry on without the united states and the unitas is surprisingly will pay a price if it leaves the deputy oh so this is where i think the united states should think very carefully becaus

which sticks to its christian heritage so number one we don't want europe to get rid of the christian heritage and we want the member states to stay as member states we don't want you know give up our nationality we don't want to give up our culture of we don't want to give up our heritage and so on and so forth so this is a big clash between those who want to see european union as post christian as post national and us who want to see europe as a christian continent based on strong member states european commission's undertaking legal action against hungary for its law targets those who help asylum seekers do you think this goes to all the way to the european court of justice could could actually hunger again then scrap the law look the thing is the following we are a country we are a state and the state does have an obligation to protect its citizens by protecting its own national border and if there is an organization which helps other people while late the border of that even a country that is again the interest of the national interest of security so it must have a consequence so

from africa to europe hundreds of thousands have tried to flee. but recently the number of arriving migrants has dropped. the e.u. has cut deals with african governments curbing mass migration in return for aid. many years development policy makers have failed to sufficiently address security issues. the e.u. is widening its reach beyond the mediterranean into africa and it hasn't shied away from bringing long shunned dictators out of isolation borders are being sealed. oh my gosh. so are we criminalise and. it's a lucrative new market for the arms and security industry. which you can't secure thousands of kilometers of order in libya and egypt without foot patrols technologies exist someone just needs to pay for them. and. the e.u. has allocated more than eight billion euros to stem the tide of migration. today more migrants are dying in the desert than drowning in the mediterranean. the sahara has become an open there's someone sorry for. what impact does the u.s. new policy having on africa. our investigation begins. we're headed towards libya

in government we're going to get to the migration part obviously because it's a huge topic inviting europe literally but i think. they also mend their domestic policy when they're threatening sanctions against hungary's that they don't like or they think and democratic do you think congress voting rights in the could be suspended and if yes then what can we do in return no surely not it cannot be taken away because it requires a unanimous decision and poland already expressed the veto all kinds of decisions like that as there is an article seven percent are going on against poland as well and they made it very clear that we've interviewed all kinds of sanctions against poland and the prime minister czech republic made it very clear that he's standing besides our prime minister so definitely such a political intention will be unsuccessful in the union to take away voting rights of hungary but you know this report contained a sixty nine points sixty nine accuse ations against hungary out of each fourteen has already been the result between the government and the european commission nineteen

francine: is europe reforming itself? or are politicians around the world making the case, the benefits for being in the eu? paolo: you see, the point for me is that by choice of national government, we are building europe, which is not politically attractive. i was asking the other day, to a friend of mine, tell me, who was the predecessor to mr. juncker. i don't remember. he has been the president of europe for 10 years. i don't remember. gone, forgotten. while everyone remembers mr. blair, or -- what does it mean? that we have built a europe that was not popular to the people? was a kind of technocratic mechanism. they manage a lot of money. they confine countries, impose rules. maybe power, yes. how can i say, not a europe that speaks to the people. francine: does that mean you will either have a more integrated europe or it will break apart? paolo: i don't think it will break apart. every day, we have examples of what happens if you are outside of major economic zones. look at what happened to turkey now. imagine if

so it is getting very, very tense in europe. the idea of throwing a lifeline to theresa may might sound appealing, because it would avoid another hardliner in britain, which is not something anybody wants. that is interesting. do you sense a similar shift? i think theresa may's scenario points to the fact that there are no strong individual european governments, they are all facing their own crisis at home. in germany, angela merkel is facing the election in bavaria where her partner in crime, as it were, the csu head, fighting for his survival, and so forth. no longer very friendly to her. which leads to the opinion that brexit is not agenda issue number one in germany, they have domestic problems to solve. they are somewhat fatigued of hearing about brexit, nothing is solved until everything is solved is the mantra, which means you can wait until the end of the year. many people here are fatigued, too! but yes, we take your point. absolutely. and one thing that annalisa said about theresa may is quite true, germany also wants

europe team. the europe team. ryder cup europe team have won their match. match. before four o'clock, there was that clear win. clear win. enough to have half a point in it. point in it. got a round of applause from the grandstand. grandstand. wild card selection to play in the team. team. world number one dustinjohnson to get that point for europe. get that point for europe. dramatically but in the end, ideal conditions for the ryder cup match. conditions for the ryder cup match. europe got their victory, thanks to players like sergio? players like sergio? garcia and his fellow team members. fellow team members. and, of course, that victory over tiger woods. that victory over tiger woods. who is live in paris, later over the course of the hour. course of the hour. we will try and get him tojoin us. get him tojoin us. it looks as though he is there. i can see him in paris. paris. line out to him so he can fill us in on the stage by stage of this map. on the stage by stage of this map. regained its

in government we're going to get to the migration part obviously because it's a huge topic dividing europe literally but i think. they also many other domestic policy when they're threatening sanctions against hungary's that they don't like or they think and democratic do you think congress voting rights in the could be suspended and if yes then what can we do in return no surely not it cannot be taken away because it requires a unanimous decision and poland has already expressed that they would veto all kinds of decisions like that as there is an article seven procedure going on against poland as well and they made it very clear that we are going to veto all kinds of sanctions against poland and the prime minister czech republic made it very clear that he's standing besides our prime minister so definitely such a political intention will be unsuccessful. up in union to take away voting rights but you know this report contains the sixty nine points sixty nine accuse a sions against hungary out of each for thirteen has already been the result between the government and the european commissi

for nearly 70 years, nato's help to preserve peace and stability in europe. this has provided the foundation for unprecedented prosperity. for all nato allies, including the united states. europe and north america together present path of the world's economic output. and while we now see some disagreement that the tariffs, it does not change the fact that europe and north america are each other's biggest trading partners. so peace and stability in europe are the foundation for continued prosperity on both sides. second, we share fundamental values to protect and defend together. democracy, individual liberty and the value of law. they are the foundations of our free societies. but they are also the foundations or engagement with the rest of the world. these values are not meant for other countries in need them to join our alliance. after the berlin wall came down, countries and the baltic states all joined with nato and more countries aspire to join and many have already followed. ... >> america's allies also have capable aircraft to enhance the defense and a

and europe trying to. get. reelection in print. very is profoundly different and this is why i think the next months will be important to settle for two to four movies deservedly ok so let's talk a little bit about italy europe relations with russia because he were up and russia have separate relations i mean they're much more tied historically and economically than pressure in america because russia america is more strategic partnership more than anything else so. practically all the political forces in italy that you know i have come across. they are for close cooperation with moscow i don't know any italian politician whether it's from conservative or democratic or the alternative parties that would say we need to make war with russia all of them are saying we need to cooperate with moscow that's the only way but then when it comes to lifting the sanctions the only thing italy can do is just you know vote against it automatic extension of sanctions why do you think rome can't be. stronger and saying maybe we should get rid of th

benefits neither him nor europe. or world cup is there we've got younger saying that he's given up on victor or by i mean you know that's a strong statement as well what does that mean then for hungary in the european union it means there was a red line crossed as a set and knowledge means also that there is a procedure to be followed and it doesn't mean anything now in this moment but it means a lot in front of the europe and the actions and may next year they're going to be elections and it might be kind of shift of the lines between. the european parliament and inside. the party families could be who knows but in the end of the day it is clear that there's a liberal cam democracy cam and it might become more and and saying listen enough is enough of those but what we saw today it's it's more symbolic than anything else right i mean we're not going to see the hungry and government or the area people for that matter they're not going to notice any changes are they i mean they're not going to suffer because of today'

you'll have believing from those countries so right now the way things are looking is that europe is divided into have so there's a bloc hungary italy austria. yes against movement which is the euro skeptic alliance and trying to hoping to have an impact in the elections would hungary support such a project well you know since there are european people and european citizens to vote on the e.u. elections i think we should leave it to do europeans number one number two we are part of the biggest european party family european peoples party and strongest on the most successful party of the european peoples party so we hope that our party family will be successful and the hope that we can change the general attitude of the european people's party which is now well migration by migration attitudes and so present and you're a prime minister obviously get along very well present and meyerson greatly do you think this simplicity could actually be a real help in some way for hungary or is it just ideological liking while you know under the democrat administration under president obama we suff

same culture and same heritage and same religion if they come to europe. this is not the same situation that's what he said so and i agree with him that we have to help them in order to keep their people keep their labor force to have them to be able to develop their economy. that's why i made an agreement with the german minister of development that they find the investments together in africa in order to make life of people better there but there's one very important principle which we always want to apply when it comes to funding of african countries for example and this is condition the levy so we have to stick these funds to conditionality meaning that we have to require we have to demand that these countries which are finance must carry out those reforms be it legal be comic be political democracy which you know kind of bridge to leave those reasons why people have been leaving from those countries so right now the way things are looking is that divide and to have there's a bloc hungary italy austria. yes against the rest of the you and you guys are

we are in europe and b. are the people he does behind hungary government is probably the strongest political party with the most support coming from the people at fifty percent during the past consecutive european parliament elections so that it would be absurd to be indicating that we have no place in the european people's party or in europe we go for it changing the rules and we go for restating what the original meaning of europe is instead of leaving you. a new york times columnist is being widely marks for asking social media term have a clearly photoshop damage of the horowitz donald trump kevin reus one social media transept they could easily have blocked the image of trump which shows the president supposedly helping victims of the two thousand and fifteen texas flooding where stressed that the image had gone viral and has been shared almost three hundred thousand times on facebook however the public has gone on town on his claims noting the absurdity of censoring any altered images. this is is i'm s

apart from the consequences for europe. of course. it is a shambles and it is an historical mistake, probably. but now what is happening in europe, and emmanuel macron is now going towards the elections next spring and that will be between progressives and populists and nationalists. and we need britain onside. we can't let britain drift away. and i perceived some slight change of mood that, you know, it might be tempting to let britain drift away but it is not practical and we need britain and we need a deal. we need to help britain and save face and just this week, barnier was trying to be very practical about this. you know, the irish question. the irish stew, to add another cliche. let's go into details. just explain that. a frictionless trade agreement. if you don't want a hard border between northern ireland and the republic of ireland, you need perhaps the irish sea. of course, it's not acceptable but it actually would mean probably less controls because the flood of goods between the uk and northern ireland is actually quite m

after this morning's four balls — where europe won 3 out of the 4 matches taking place — europe now hold an 8 points to 4 lead over the united states. our sports reporter, john watson, is there. any further developments? it's very tight. there are four matches in place this afternoon. the foursomes see each member of the team taking alternate shots with a single ball. it is 2-2. it alternate shots with a single ball. it is 2—2. it could change the complexion of the european lead somewhat. it would look good if they could go in later with the potential 10-6 could go in later with the potential 10—6 lead. as things stand at the moment, justin rose is playing alongside henrik stenson up against dustinjohnson alongside henrik stenson up against dustin johnson and brooks alongside henrik stenson up against dustinjohnson and brooks koepka. they are one up in that match with around two or three holes left to play. and of course if the united states can pick up an extra point thenit states can pick up an extra point then it would certainly change things somewhat. as we know, no team in ryder

and europe if you're trying to. get sort of election in twenty. that is profoundly different and this is why i think the next months will be important to so for to follow these disabilities ok so let's talk a little bit about italy europe relations with russia because he replied russia have separate relations i mean they're much more tied historically and economically than fresh are in america because russia america's more strategic partnership more than anything else so. practically all the public school forces in italy that you know i have come across. they are for close cooperation with moscow i don't know any italian politician whether it's from conservative or democratic or the alternative parties that would say we need to make war with russia all of them are saying we need to cooperate with moscow that silly way but then when it comes to lifting the sanctions the only thing italy can do is just you know the vote against the automatic extension of sanctions liasing rome can be. stronger and saying maybe we should get rid of the sanctions if w

after this morning's balls, where europe won three out of the four matches taking place, europe now hold an 8—4 lead over the united states. 0ur sports reporter john watson is there. a great performance from europe and those four balls this morning, plenty more golf being played this afternoon in the foursomes, four—man which sees each player take alternate shots with the same ball as part of their team. there foursome format is one that europe dominated in yesterday. they managed that clean sweep winning all four of their matches. the first time that europe had managed to do that in ryder cup history, setting a platform for this big margin they currently have. as things stand, they are up in to europe, down into of those four matches. as things stand, midway through their respective rows, europe could be looking at what would be a 10—6 advantage, heading into those final singles matches to come tomorrow. the all—importa nt singles matches to come tomorrow. the all—important figure is 14.5 points, seeing them free gain the ryder cup trophy which is currently in american hands.

as well, will become closer to europe. francine: is this europe reforming itself, or is this politicians around the world making the case for the benefits of being in the eu? paolo: no, you see, the point of me is that by a choice national government, we have built a europe which is not politically attractive. i was asking the other day to a friend of mine, tell me who was the predecessor of mr. juncker? i don't remember. he has been the president of europe for 10 years. i don't remember. mr. -- gone, forgotten. blair, ieveryone mr. don't know, so what does it mean that we have built a europe which was not popular to the people? was a kind of technocratic mechanism. ?here they manage a lot of money. rules,n find countries, so maybe power, yes, but not europe which speaks to the people. francine: does that mean you will either have a more integrated europe, or it will break apart? paolo: i don't think it will break apart. every day we have examples of what happens if you are outside major economic zones. look at what happen

nomad culture spreads as far as the borders of europe. the games will continue until september the 9th, a chance for the whole world to marvel at the prowess and the skill of the nomad. tim allman, bbc news. a private burial service for senatorjohn mccain has taken place in the us state of maryland. dozens of people lined the streets waving american flags as a motorcade brought senator mccain's coffin to the us naval academy chapel in annapolis. his final resting place will be next to his lifelong friend, admiral chuck larson. on saturday, former us presidents barack obama and george w bush spoke at a memorial service in washington for senator mccain. a reminder of our top story: a huge fire has broken out at the national museum of brazil in rio dejaneiro, one of the largest and most historic institution in the country. a reminder that you can find me on twitter. i'm @nkem|fejika. if you want to keep up to date on the news, go to bbc.com. hello. that wasn't bad for the first weekend of september. summer warmth continuing for many of us, e

countries as well, will become closer to europe. francine: is this europe reforming itself, or is this politicians around the world making the case for the benefits of being in the eu? paolo: no, you see, the point for me is that by a choice of national government, we have built a europe which is not politically attractive. i was asking the other day to a friend of mine, tell me who was the predecessor of mr. juncker? i don't remember. he has been the president of europe for 10 years. i don't remember. mr. -- gone, forgotten. why everyone us remembers mr. blair, i don't know, so what does it mean that we have built a europe which was not popular to the people? was a kind of technocratic mechanism. francine: power. paolo: where? they manage a lot of money. they can fine countries, rules, so maybe power, yes, but not a europe which speaks to the people. francine: does that mean you will either have a more integrated europe, or it will break apart? paolo: no, i don't think it will break apart. every day we have examples of what happens

and it played an important role in europe. powerful and playing an important part in europe. with the greatest respect, that was in the 80s and 90s, here we are in 2018, yes you are in power at a minority government with an uncertain future, my question to you is that you change the trajectory for centre—left social democratic politics? because in most of europe, these parties, like yours, are in disastrous shape. i wouldn't say disaster, but bad. look, social democracy was a 40% party, 40% of the vote everywhere, everywhere. and now we are a party of 20% of the vote, everywhere. for sure, this is not going to be changed overnight. but portugal and spain can represent the renewals of social democracy. i think it is an opportunity. here is an interesting comment from an analyst who has been consulting for the spd, the social democratic party in germany, michael broening, he says "social democratic parties in europe have forgotten how to mobilise." we see the far right mobilising, we even see the out and out left represented by people likejeremy corbyn in the uk, mobilising.

i know your fund focus is basically on periphery europe and europe. is a good brexit deal for the u.k. mean that you get rid of that mail -- layer of uncertainty? joseph: as far as u.k. assets are concerned, the fundamental problem i think of brexit, which i don't think it is a great idea for the economy and finance. difficult that a ,ad idea can be made less bad but it will have an impact on the economy when we are another. certainly, a smooth brexit is less bad news, is marginally better, but i don't think that the experiment is going to be good news for the british economy overall. when i look at the fundamentals of the british economy, you know, frankly we are talking about italy. italy's financials in terms of net credit or debit position against the rest of the world, its current account surplus, it's fiscal balances, are not much better than britain, to be honest. frankly, the starting boy here with a bit of a bubble on real estate assets, zero interest rates, looks quite shaky ground to meet. francine: given what is priced in at the moment, if
