Infections the protesters say the government has let them down. And the u. S. Paying tribute to the man known as the functions of the nation civil rights icon john lewis financed alongside Martin Luther king and went on to serve 17 terms in congress has died. Im rebecca richs welcome to the program a year late is trying to Reach Agreement on a 750000000000 euro coronavirus Recovery Plan have extended a bass summit into a 3rd day despite meeting until late on saturday night in brussels leaders failed to finalize the deal then become treys a divided on how much of the money should be distributed as grants and how much as long as hard hit solvent states including italy and spain a safe substantial aid payments. Well lets go to brussels now and bring in our correspondent Marina Strauss whos at the summit in brussels marina they discuss this new proposal all day yesterday and late into the night is there any sign that there is pursuit proposal is going to go anywhere. Well the lands Prime Minister. Said after the meeting ended yesterday that german press german chancellor Angela Merkel and french president walked out of a meeting with the self declared frugal for countries so that more wealthy countries from the north led by Richard Health and so the atmosphere didnt seem to be that good at 11 oclock when the summit ended but what we know is that by laterals continued through the night it was a team of European Council president continued working on adjustment through the night they probably didnt get much sleep or baca what we heard from a german diplomatic source is that negotiations are at an important stays and that is actually worth continuing working because apparently theres a strong will to really find a solution here is what your leaders had to say yesterday after the meeting someone gets lost in summary one can say it is going quite well things are going in the right direction of course as youd expect its a tough struggle a tough negotiation with the movement in the right direction and thats the most important thing the speech text 7 of us if were going through a series of stalemate there are many issues we are discussing. Im inviting all leaders to converge towards a common aim d to approve the next generation you which is a plan for european recovery not just for the countrys most affected by coronavirus but for all of europe. So the rain i guess theyd rather opposing views pretty much sum up the Current Situation of where we are in the negotiations. Yeah there are still the civis and that you could see also in the sound bites we have the south that was really hard to cope at 19 and they have been facing economic difficulties even before covert 19 hit them they said when they said we need your solidarity we want money but we wanted do we want it to be handed out as grants and theyre actually supported by france and germany the 2 most powerful countries in the European Union also to 2 biggest countries in the e. U. And on the other hand we have to frugal countries of self declared frugal countries the netherlands and also share also and they say ok yes we want to show solidarity but we want to hand out money as loans and the new proposal we so yes the day shift some of the money some of the budgets the Recovery Fund from grants to loans and also handed out some other goodies to frugal countries to win them over so marina where does this leave us then is it likely well see an agreement in the next couple of hours usually an e. U. Summit takes about one and a half or 2 days but when it its about the budget when its about money it can also last longer we have seen that in the past so this is not an expected this is not an exception there is a possibility it will last longer because there are also major stumbling stones had that leaders still have to talk about for example if the money handed out in the budget will be attached to a rule of law mechanism marinus trials in brussels.
