A petition against the suspension. As protests in indonesias pop up process turned deadly the government says it is prepared to investigate reports of a racist attack believed to be the cause something im dressed. Plus the worlds oldest Film Festival gets underway in venice french actors catherine venues judith finish grace the red carpet as their film the truth kicks off the competition for the golden why. Im so me so much going to thank you for joining us italys president has given the Prime Minister Giuseppe Conti a mandate to form a new government said the government would need to start right away on a budget for next year and would work to modernize italy to make it more competitive countries mandate follows a series of political twists and turns after the countrys far right deputy. A minister called his party out of the governing coalition the 2 former rivals the antiestablishment 5 Star Movement of the center Left Democratic Party this week agreed to join forces to avoid a new election and journalist is standing by in rome with the latest good to see you so it looks like a green light for this new coalition but what hurdles does it still have to overcome. Yes there are quite a few and as you mention these ones its a rivals and now agreeing to Work Together so some of the sticking points the 1st off is the rule of law announced hes the head of the 5 star but and the deputy Prime Minister in the Previous Administration the current one fact now what will his new role be in this new of alliance this new government thats been created thats one of the issues the other issue of course is also this plan of it online not the 5 star but as always called on its rank and file members to participate online in the fault or to improve its own policies or will they be doing the same kind of vote for others to establish an agreement on this new alliance as well as on what program theyre going to be putting forward that something the Democratic Party is unlikely to agree to and then of course agreement on what kind of program that would work for what the Democratic Party has no new party probusiness party and then you have the 5 Star Movement that is quite euro skeptic and also suspicious of business well lets see what kind of program they put together but for the moment we do see that the markets are reacting positively to this proposal of the new alliance and so for that they see this as probably a more pro european a government as compared to the Previous Administration similar what about a tellings what are they saying about this new government and its prospects going forward. I think so many italians that was fatigue is 5 going back to the polls and going back to the election and so they were not very happy with the decision for taken by but he did leave that he took the party to pull his support for the for the coalition that said though they want to see a government that comes to this and put in place a program that will help or. Make ends meet so to speak at the end of the day theyre concerned about rising taxes but the Prime Minister saying today that there may be any crease but it will be a cross a border all italians and it will be such a high increase so theyll be looking to see what will come out particularly on this issue of the budget for 2020 you mentioned Matteo Salvini the former interior minister hes predicting a short life span for this new government heres what he set. Are afraid of elections can run away for a month or 6 months or a year but not forever. Because a big only thing thats uniting them right now is the hate they have a pretty league. Your. So its a moment here so many theyre still hoping for fresh elections have he and his leap party seen any drop in support over this political crisis. I think there was some just a drop for him in the to kill a full making this decision to pool the support increased this situation of instability but now hes rule if this new government is really put together his role in parliament will be as opposition and in that statement that he made clearly is it blind he doesnt expect it to last and thats the question everyone is wondering of course how long will this new government last we saw the Previous Coalition when it came to get the people will say well maybe this time at least theyre united in the populist ideas and perhaps it will last the full band but now we see the plug pulled after just 14 months so the question still remains as to whether this new government once we finally see the shape of the program put forward how long. Is to salvini s. O. B not very long and hoping for fresh elections where he says at least it will be a government in invited by the will of the people as opposed to what he refers to as a a natural at that station journalist seem a good thing in rome thank you for your analysis there is widespread outrage in the u. K. After Prime Minister Boris Johnson surprise move to suspend parliament it will close for 5 weeks in september and october and reopen only 2 weeks before the u. K. Is due to leave the European Union johnson says he needs a pause to work on his domestic agenda but opponents say it is an undemocratic attempt to stifle debate over brags that and more than a 1000000 people have already signed an online petition against it rest in peace british democracy for its johnson as grave digger the message from bracks that opponents in front of downing street its clear theyre outraged that johnson has suspended parliament at such a critical time. He knows that is not the will of the people or parliament to have a new deal breaker and that is why hes trying to sneak it through by suspending bob and democratic outrage our elected m. P. s should be able to stop him and he is using most of undemocratic way forward hours after johnsons decision was announced it was a done deal and black and white approved by the crown it means that on october 14th the queen will read out the new Governments Program in parliament before that parliament will be suspended no new law can be passed here for nearly 5 weeks Boris Johnson says that it has nothing to do with bracks it. Will bring forward a new list of program croix hospitals and making sure that we have the Education Funding that we need and there will be ample toy on both soit so that crucial october the 17th summit taught in parliament for m. P. s to debate the e. U. Debate breaks it and all the other issues ill put on the queens speech is a formality normally held at the start of each legislative session parliament is traditionally suspended before the speech but due to the bracks a dispute it has been an exceptionally long time since the last queens speech and june of 2017 is this years speech and suspension normal and necessary constitutional expert catherine had and doesnt think so. Its certainly not business as usual is a political act very clearly if you just wanted to and one session and starts another you can do it much quicker you dont need a full week break so in that sense its going to be seen by everyone as a sort of make a political move and if the government didnt want it to be seen that way they could come and talk to get to parliament about how to do it differently politicians who want to prevent of no deal back said are calling the move a crime against the constitution and an attack on democracy so when parliament does meet on his timetable very briefly next week the 1st thing well do is a term of legislation to prevent what hes doing and secondly to challenge him most of conference at some point or discomfort is also growing among opponents of a no deal backs it and Johnsons Conservative Party a number of my colleagues would prefer to wait until the 30 days that the Prime Minister has talked about. And move in late september that will now not be possible will a suspension of parliament encourage the no deal opponents in westminster to take quick and unified action or will their hands be tied protesters marching through westminster want them to act the practice a dispute seems to have no end in sight lets get the latest from london now did abuse correspondent mark of math standing by for us hi berkut weve seen such an outpouring of outrage over this decision what has the fall out been. Its really like an explosion sumi i mean hes caused absolute outrage like you said and the question is whether he will have succeeded. Just uniting his enemies and amuse the really moderate conservative m. P. The former. And there are others who really have never thought that they might be rivals bought their highly critical of. Johnson off the Prime Minister and the question is will they unite behind an Opposition Leader will they vote maybe in a vote of confidence against their own government next week so this is what we have to have an eye on then of course there are those. Jacob riis for example hes the leader of the house of commons hes somebody who with Boris Johnson has led the neve campaign leaving the view and he says well you know its not really such a big deal its more or less business as usual and colleagues. With the very latest from london for us thank you. Now to some other stories making headlines around the world a former leader of the demilitarised rebel group in colombia says he will once again take up arms against the government the militant leader. Secures the colombian government of violating a peace treaty signed with fark in 2016 which ended decades of civil war.

Ukraines newly elected parliament has met for the 1st time after elections gave president party a solid majority the pro european servant of the people party which is little more than a year old 1254. 00 a 450. 00 seat and is now set to choose a Prime Minister. Police in indonesia say protesters have set fire to a government building in popular province. The region has been rocked by protests for almost 2 weeks authorities now say they will investigate reports of a racist attack by Security Forces that is believed to be the cause of the un rest protesters in indonesias eastern most province a police hurled racist abuse at them for allegedly desecrating an indonesian flag one soldier and 2 protesters have been confirmed dead in resulting clashes in papa an area that has long struggled for independence. That was students from papua venting their anger on the streets of the indonesian capital. This time the protest remains peaceful. But the demonstrators demands are clear are they calling for an end to what they say is racism by the indonesian Security Forces but. Some also want popular to break away from indonesia a country they became part of 50 years ago after a disputed referendum. We papuans students in indonesia won independence for popular that is our 1st demand. And secondly there was racism in the city by security personnel. The protests 1st started nearly 2 weeks ago after videos were circulated on the internet showing Security Forces calling papuans students monkeys and dogs. The rallies turned violent as protest as an indonesian troops faced off to try to stop the unrest the government shut down the internet the Security Forces and i are also investigating the allegations of racism. We already investigated several people and 7 people are under intensive investigation but we still have not declared which one is the suspect. But many of the demonstrators say this is not enough and are determined to continue to push for change and what they say is justice for their people. As we heard there the situation in power what is escalating with a Communications Blackout earlier we spoke to Veronica Coleman a human rights lawyer who was on the board of r a i see indonesia an organisation helping Asylum Seekers and with conflicting reports coming out of papua i asked her what she could tell us about the current situation. Just the situation is very messy. Not only at the mistrust. But starting from yesterday the phone communication that s. M. S. And called services were also blocked and its gradually getting more cities that are being blocked i mean the fun communication. Speaking theres a riot in the capital. And the band morningstar reflect off west palm all of this phrase and it means that a crackdown might be imminent and. To go with regards to the shooting yesterday on this current were told to look down on the hospital where the injured party starts to our family has been complaining that they cannot get the death bodies out ok even visiting the wounded ok that weve heard that the government says protesters here are provoking the violence what do you think how the indonesian government is dealing with the situation. I think the initial government approach to the. Protests or protest its in total state of denial the government being just trying to block the information out to date. Independent Journalist Alliance just down the attempt to silence. News from covering the protests in java and i think that this is not going anyway. The process does have clearer and clearer mistakes this that today is the 11th they also are both best that they demand is an independence referendum a solution to end racism. Ok phrenic a common human rights lawyer speaking to us about the situation in papua thank you very much. Just days ahead of us president Donald Trumps next trip to europe senior u. S. Officials have renewed threats to pull u. S. Troops out of germany if berlin fails to boost its defense spending in june trump suggested moving the more than 30000. 00 soldiers stationed here to poland but would it really be that easy for the u. S. Military to leave after decades of presence here our reporter went to france time the biggest u. S. Base in germany where most locals want the americans to stay. A key american outpost in southwestern germany. Airbase the biggest u. S. Air force base abroad. Just what takes place there is kept secret even 70 years after the base was founded. It is impossible to get any closer to the air base the enteric compound is a high security zone and we certainly werent allowed to enter the base itself with a camera team instead the u. S. Military gave us some of their own video footage from inside. The u. S. Military shows how munitions and weapons are stored supplies for fighters in syria mali or afghanistan. Paratroopers practice jumping Fighter Pilots set off from here on their missions to africa asia and the middle east. Defending germany only plays a small role according to this expert on the u. S. This is not true. Of course as a bit of protection but at the same time history teacher. For us Foreign Policy and Security Policy must not be underestimated. And its not just the airbase the biggest American Military hospital outside continental United States is also nearby doctors and Health Care Workers train here for emergencies and for working in a war zone Wounded Soldiers are brought here from all over the world. Soon they will be relocating not to poland but closer to the field. A new hospital costing around a 1000000000. 00 will be billed more modern and better equipped forest at the edge of the air base has already been cleared. The mayor of. The large investment alone means there will be no move. You never know what will get used or not but i cant see it happening. Because. The u. S. Has also invested a lot in modern warfare in recent years the air and Space Operations center is located at the air base its one of the u. S. Military. It is now an open secret that plays a central role in the u. S. Drone strikes Important Information on targets are relayed to the u. S. Via out im stein opponents of the base are unhappy about preparations for war are being made in germany for them a u. S. Withdrawal would be a reason to celebrate. But most people disagree. Germans and americans have grown together over the decades as seen at the german American Friendship fest. Among the guests of form and active members of the military who dont believe the air base will be relocated our web site is a Central Point in europe for the whole American Forces and not only europe but africa middle east everything is centered around ramstein and thats why this place is going to stay here we dont need to leave menace we have a good time of year transition to government look carefully at the air base more than a 1000 buildings many of them underground i know the place for that reason they cant move it all to poland. The Trump Administration threats to relocate or something people cannot imagine will ever happen. The joint location is too important for both americans and germans more on the story with our chief Political Editor michelle is now here and our studio hi michelle what were the people there in that report saying we dont thank you americans are going
