Leaving the e. U. And not twenty nine twenty nineteen as eleven pm g. M. T. As new facts emerge people are entitled to take a different view that theres nothing in article fifty to stop them. Lets no one doubts are determination or question our resolve bracks it is happening. Also coming up on the day the u. S. City of pittsburgh was once a rust belt behemoths a metropolis that owed its very existence to steel for the days still are long gone and pittsburgh has found some innovative ways to transform itself into a hub of Green Technology well take a look coming up. How can we improve pittsburgh whether this is creating more drives more low Income Housing access to Public Transportation fossil fuel three vehicles electrifying our fleet access to more great plains i really how can we improve the quality of life for everybody in pittsburgh. But first as braxton negotiations drag on in brussels the European Union seems to be losing its patience with all the hemming and hawing now the e. U. Is ramping up the pressure chief negotiator Michel Barnier has given london a two week also made him saying it must make clear how much it plans to pay before it leaves the bloc now barnett says that needs to happen before talks on trade can begin but britains to go shooters well they seem a little less concerned about the glacial pace. To date news of progress and consensus from the projected wrecks of negotiations has been thin on the ground all the more surprising that the u. K. s bricks and minister david davis came out with a distinctly positive view of the most recent negotiations theres no doubt that we have made and continue to make including this round significant progress across a whole range of issues across the board that may prove progress towards resolving some really difficult questions and that of course will continue. Between now and december in comparison comments made by davis counterpart e. U. Breaks it negotiator michigan you seemed much more concerned by progress yet to be made compared the process to a matter of settling it counts as in any other separation and he offered a simple answer when pressed whether the e. U. Is sticking to its two week deadline for clarification or concessions from london my bullshit week my answer is yes. Many observers remain convinced that breaks it cant help but end in a nasty divorce there are still some who say the split doesnt have to happen at all a far as brussels is concerned as far as the treaty is concerned this country still has a free choice about whether to proceed as new facts emerge people are entitled to take a different view and theres nothing in article fifty to stop them i think the british people have the right to know this they should invade this lady the ball is once again in londons court if whitehall doesnt dede want to negotiate breaks it then the message from brussels is pay up. A bit of news correspondent barbara vessel has been covering these talks for us from brussels barbara good to se you laura kara says access can still be stopped is that really an option. Yes legally of course it is until the divorce is comes through we can always say lets try again or you could even say i still love you a bit we shall have another go at it and Stay Together however its a political question and the government in london that particular tourism a has increasingly locked herself in her clinging to power into a mechanism that sort of reinforces bricks it if we look at total days where she has said the date is exactly twenty three hours on the twenty third of march in two thousand and nineteen and that is supposed to be a law it shows that this is like a spiral that she cant really break any more she and her ministers her cabinet and the tory party are really locked into this process and for them to step away from the brink is hardly possible politically what about in the e. U. Is there any feeling like maybe this doesnt have to happen or are we wait past at this point. For the e. U. Basically they have accepted that this is going to happen because of the sea of course what is happening in london they see that the government is weakened that its not really doesnt seem to be free in its decisions they also see of course that the mood in the in the United Kingdom is largely sort of represented and created by a hostile press that still constantly briefs against the European Union every day you just look at the headlines and you wonder how they make this up and so that is an aspect that doesnt have to be underestimated on the on the side of politicians academics economists and so on of course there is increasing despair more and more people say lets not do this its like sitting in the back of a car and is really racing up to the abyss however nobody is stopping the car so brussels is more or less resigned to the process and the progress of the disaster however people are now even diplomats here are saying it could be happy it could be happening what nobody used to say out loud before that we will end up with a hard break so it was a sort of car crash hard and barney has says that you need clarity in two weeks or what what happens in two weeks. In two rigs we have the summit and now we have the preparations for mid december we have to summit so in two weeks we need to know the conclusions will be written and so at the moment two conclusions are prepared one decision that says we will not move the talks will be stalled because britain hasnt made a compromise over money and the other varieties ok britain has made the compromise has promised to pay up but what its due and so we will continue was twenty talks in general those are the two the those are the two very of the righties they are now being prepared in detail and before the summit and the Prime Ministers and heads of state and government make up their mind what they want to do so yes time is running away time is running away and yet it feels like these talks have been going on forever i dont know about you barbara but have they made any progress is there anything concrete to show for these talks so far. This has been going on for five months now if it carries on at this pace well both be sitting here in two thousand and fifty and sort of going round and round in circles its been really really fruitless i mean there has been have been tiny tiny little steps this little bit of progress on Citizens Rights for instance but all those things have sort of fall on big down on island i mean there seem to be agreement there cannot be a hard border an island that britain simply ignores the necessity of a border in ireland after breaks it and says oh its supposed to be nonexistent its supposed to be invisible yes but how and it hasnt offered any sort of concrete plan or project how this could come about is so we going back and forth and sideways and progress is really absolutely minimal its a very frustrating process and diplomats in brussels say maybe we have to rethink the whole thing and aim for Something Else that means a deal that is known deal that deal its like a minimum the minimum agreement and what how we could create a future together but not the sort of really extensive negotiations that weve had before but that is still in the future its still everything is still in play and you and ill be speaking much more in the future for now thats barbara vale in brussels thanks for the latest. People in the town of grimsby one of britains seafood Processing Centers voted overwhelmingly in favor of leaving the e. U. But now the town is calculated the cost and is lobbying for its port facilities to be exempt from bracks it has drawn a lot of reaction online take a look at this journalist Chris Robinson whos originally from grimsby tweeted so the story about grimsby fishermen wanting to have an exemption to bricks it is really interesting its the first proper hearing of a place who voted against their interest admitting they may have made a mistake another u. K. Resident tweeted this no no no grimsby and the fishing industry both want to direct that you made your bed lie in it or repent. And british novelist jonathan code joked grimsby wants to have its fish cake and eat it too. But also working aside to really understand whats happening in grimsby you have to understand how highly regulated the entire fishing industry is inside the e. U. Brussels strict rules for commercial fishing across all the Member States to prevent overfishing it says annual catch limits quotas that determine how many fish can be caught in each place each country isnt allocated its fair share the fisheries policy also sets controls on fishing practices like what kind of nets youre allowed to use while youre fishing and it also regulates how fish and seafood in general are processed and labelled to make sure that consumers can trust what theyre eating of these rules were devised to protect fishing stocks and fisherman but rex it poses a whole new set of challenges for port cities in britain but also for european fisherman. Rex its a huge impact because we will lose at least fifty percent of our fleet and thats a disaster a real disaster thanks. For drinks it came as a surprise to us and not a good surprise. Im worried it is like a monster emerging a monster. My name is. Im a dunce fisherman from the island and my name is representing the dutch fishing industry. They call sent by fish and british waters eighty percent of the year and if i am not allowed to fish there anymore i have to go somewhere else but other colleagues are already fishing in dutch waters so if i go there we have to share it would be like fishing on a stamp. So this would have a domino effect a very bad domino effect for instance here this Auction Industry sure that if one or two or three vessels will have to stop then that is no place this is enormously for the auction Everything Everything tumbles around. In the north sea since nine hundred fifty seven and thats a very very good sign and that is because of the joint policy of the e. U. Member states but the collective management is gone what used to be our colleagues our friends working together in european fisheries politics and all of a sudden its turned upside down as if we are strangers and that is a very very bad feeling our friends are no longer our friends. Are sufficient. To you without igniting. As a boy i went fishing with my father in british waters he told me where to go catch the best fish. Machine one of you to. Be played and played and yeah both of. These are my waters and i know them like the back of my head. That you could not going to move. The reality off the backs it is the reality before taxes and you have to come to an agreement together so the brits export the fish the tax and they import the fish they eat and if they want to sell scottish farms. Language etc to do confident then they should be reasonable and its a tad and its a fair deal that we can keep preaching in their waters as we have done for five hundred years. The United Nations and the us have both told saudi arabia not to use lebanon as an arena for proxy conflicts now the warning comes after a week of rising tensions a trance saudi arabia and iran riyadh earlier accused levanon objects are in war because the iranian backed militant Group Hezbollah is part of the government there and amid the escalation in saudi arabia and its allies have now told their nationals to leave lebanon now. Kuwaiti citizens heading out of lebanon their government is one of several gulf states that has ordered its people to leave the country this comes amid sharpening tensions in the region lebanon is being drawn deeper into a power struggle between arch rivals saudi arabia and iran. Lebanese Prime Minister saad hariri is inside the arabia since he was signed last weekend accusations have been flying that the kingdom is holding him hostage for. Iran backed militant Group Hezbollah says that amounts to a declaration of war the group is accusing saudi arabia of using lebanon as a proxy in its conflict with rival iran. That you know if your problem is with iran why you are attacking lebanon just to prove you have influence we admit that you have influence but if you think that you can defeat the Lebanese Resistance or its Political Parties who refuse to comply with you youre mistaken. Lebanons president met with the saudi envoy on friday local media reportage that the president demanded harrys return riyadh says hariri is free to move as he wishes a claim that front supported on friday but there is no doubts that the complaint is escalating the United Nations has sounded the alarm this is a matter of great concern to us and what we want is for peace to be preserved in lebanon. It is essential that no new conflict erupts in the region is going to have devastating consequences for this saudi iran rivalry is also playing out in war ravaged yemen a missile was launched from that against saudi arabia last week the United States is now i said that the missile was a rainy and. In the proxy war yemen is suffering badly now there are fears lebanon. Could become the next battle cry. About tobias a scholar who studies the regime and is the head of the center for applied research and partnership with the orient he joins us now from darmstadt not a welcome when you look at the situation in lebanon do you see a war in the making not really i really see an escalation in the Political Climate but actually to be to be to be honest i dont expect a major war i think the Security Apparatus in most important countries in the region and particularly in israel know very well that this war would have an unbelievable consequences that should be avoided so there might be some minor incidents here and there but i dont expect an all out war so this is all ever yet again on this is very crisis you mention the Security Apparatus in israel for those of us who arent perhaps steeped in middle eastern politics walk us through what israel has to do with this conflict between saudi arabia and iran well obviously it is hizbullah is a force that has defended against israeli invasion that is threatening israel however also in the middle east the iranians use has a lot as a defense line against any form of israeli influence in the region that the iranians do not like therefore any a school ation in the southern border or in the border between that israel wouldnt be in israels interest and this is why i believe that the israelis wont this is a really see to see this escalating ahead of the u. S. France germany theyre all urging the escalation is saudi arabia going it alone here who are their allies. As i said i think politically political messaging can be a skill torrie while you actually dont do really anything so i think if we compare Donald Trumps tweets and reactions to this and the state departments statements today you can see a big difference in how people who just care about political messaging seem to like this when they were alive with crown prince behind the fence on the side to review of those who actually do diplomacy those who actually do security politics me a call for caution and so i assume this is what were all states should do in order for to not see this further escalate when we talk about the situation in lebanon specifically and saad hariri is that a matter of he cant go back to lebanon or he wont well thats a big thats a big question here a lot of people are saying hes basically held under house arrest well theyre saying hes free to move but should not go back to lebanon i have to be honest here i simply cannot assess whats more accurate i think france has today said they dont believe he is under under house arrest and free to move but again there are so many conflicting reports that im humble enough to say that i am his god damn it what you dont know what would it take adnan to relax the situation right now best Case Scenario best Case Scenario would simply be make sure that this doesnt translate into any form of military action call for constraints call for air each side to keep cool and to keep cool headed and make sure that the sovereignty of a country like lebanon has respect thats adnan tab a time i thank you for being with us why did happy. Well the United States has long been one of the worlds biggest emitters of Greenhouse Gases but a u. S. City once known for its skies is showing it is possible to cut pollution the rust belt so they have Pittsburgh Pennsylvania is undergoing a transformation as a correspondent carson phenomena reports. This is the old image of pittsburgh a city of steel and coal where the chimney stacks never stop bad shit smoke and west read lights had to be left alone twenty four hours a day because the smog blocked out the sun but todays reality is a different one the city has cleaned up its act and instead of heavy industry banks and High Tech Companies and are providing jobs for a growing population more than thirteen thousand pittsburghers are employed in the Clean Energy Sector alone in companies such as ever power which operates wind farms in pennsylvania new york and is developing projects in other states too for cofounder and recall of best ski pittsburgh is the Perfect Place for innovative businesses i think its the people you know its great town pool here young people from some of the best universities in the country. Also from the cultural standpoint you know theres a lot to offer we have three professional teams we have to l. A. We have to symphony we have the opera so many things that can draw great talent. Pittsburghs transformation as the result of a concerted effort by the City Government to attract startups and other businesses while at the same time keeping an eye on environmental and social issues one of the people working on pittsburghs turnaround is Green Technology<\/a> well take a look coming up.

Pittsburghs transformation as the result of a concerted effort by the City Government<\/a> to attract startups and other businesses while at the same time keeping an eye on environmental and social issues one of the people working on pittsburghs turnaround is Development Analyst<\/a> sarah yeager. To take a holistic approach as how can we improve pittsburgh why this is creating more jobs more low Income Housing<\/a> access to Public Transportation<\/a> fossil fuel free vehicles. Electrifying our fleet access to more bike lanes i really how can we improve the quality of life for everybody and pittsburgh. Another key factor in the citys formula for success is pittsburghs colleges like Carnegie Mellon<\/a> University Many<\/a> who started here at cmu have established themselves in the new economy founding startups in the vicinity of the campus and turning them into vibrant enterprises professor jean yang a specialist for programming languages is full of praise for the almost symbiotic relationship between scientists and Tech Companies<\/a> here for instance do a lingo was started by lease on and he had this Actual Office<\/a> for a long time before he left for doing go all together and so a lot of the duelling of people are involved with cmu they come back here to listen to talks to speak. And everything is quite close so the people are companies theyll show up to talks here people here theyll spend some time at the companys jean yang grew up in pittsburgh when it was still a by word for the american rust belt as soon as she finished school she moved away like so many other talents and young people at the time and expected never to return now shes back in her hometown and enjoys not only great working conditions but also a new quality of life in her Old Neighborhood<\/a> these are places where it was pretty sketchy to walk outside there after dark and i was just way inside for my parents to pick me up i wouldnt go outside on my own and when i came back i realize that wow there are all these bars there now there are restaurants the buildings are outside they still look pretty much the same but whats going on inside really its like night and day so pittsburgh clearly is on the way up again with young people flocking to the city and the prospect of even better times ahead for the next generation. Earlier with the mayor of pittsburgh. About balancing his sayings past with its future. Just like our sister city in dortmund or just right down the ryan in essence pittsburgh is that story pittsburgh is that industrial story we discovered the coal seam in pittsburgh we discovered oil north of pittsburgh in western pennsylvania in our jobs in coal in heavy industry help to build america but theyre not the future what we want to be able to do is change the future of work so that the investments that are coming from our federal government arent going to subsidize the jobs of yesterday but are going to build the Wind Turbines<\/a> of tomorrow invest in the Turbine Technology<\/a> be able to produce solar panels and solar cells teaching people how to install them in making investments for the future that will allow us to be competitive on a global basis germany gets that and theyve been doing it now its time for the United States<\/a> and other countries to create our own Marshall Plan<\/a> and to be able to invest in the areas that have been left behind and most importantly in the people who have been left behind. The mayor of pittsburgh speaking there a little earlier the day is nearly done but as ever well take our conversation online you can find us on twitter either at the news do you can tweet me using my handle at sarah harmon five three and please dont forget to use our hash tags a day so we can find your comments now before we go she used to zoom just unveiled its newest arrivals the first jaguar cubs born a houston zoo in twelve years the new pair are called ferrets and emma and here they are with their mom maya ill see you next week. Trickles through our fingers and now around the moment it seems to be running out. The tongue any industry that uses. The precious fax number. Because not all. History books are brought to life.
