Im sorry kelly welcome to the program we begin with the breaking news doctors treating russian Opposition Leader alexina vali they say that he has been treating him after an alleged poisoning attack say that he has been discharged from the hoss. Spittal in berlin doctors say that a full recovery may be possible involvement was airlifted to germany last month after becoming sick during a visit to siberia german chancellor Angela Merkel has described the case as attempted murder after lab analysis showed that he was poisoned with a novi chucked nerve agent russia has said there is no evidence of a crime. To have you chief Political Editor michelle Affairs Standing by outside of the sharon tate hospital here in berlin where and of only was being treated so michelle what more has the hospital said. Well not that terribly much we got installments of news of his recovery over those 34 days he was in the charite clinic behind me and this morning we learned that he is well enough to have left the clinic is whereabouts is unclear at this very moment in time but that it was still unclear that press release says whats the long term effects of the poisoning will be in the u. S. And weve seen photographs. On these teen has posted them on instagram showing someone whos clearly showing the signs of a Severe Health problems and the big question now is what will never do next after his aides have indicated in recent days that he would be wanting to head back to russia that is one of the big looming questions will he go back to that country or do we know though in the meantime does he plan to continue at least his medical treatment in germany. But there are very few details we have so far we simply dont know at this very moment in time that statement we saw this morning indicates that there are long term issues still to deal with the question is whether he will remain in germany to continue to be treated at the same time we saw his team being rather upbeat about progress in recent days and the question will be now what ever he does will also have a political fallout on relations between germany and russia and the e. U. And russia after german chancellor Angela Merkel just a few days after the arrived here and when the borah tree had clearly proven here in germany that the navi chalk nerve agent was to blame for the poisoning something that was developed in soviet era russia that there were questions to be answered by moscow and we have this continuing back and forth. Between moscow and berlin now with both sides accusing each other of withholding information indeed the germans have called for an investigation in russia the russians essentially slamming the door on that proposal mahela where do these diplomatic relations stand right now between the germans and the russians because theyve already strained going into this. They were and there seems to have been a focus now on that big project between germany and russia which is the north stream to pipeline which is deeply unpopular with the exception of very few european states. That had an exclusive interview with volkoff hes a key member of staff of alex a number on the who positions himself against letting that project be used for sanctions or be terminated because he says that that is something that only strengthens hooten back in russia to show that the west is alleges the against russia as a country and so the team around the valley is in favor of individual sanctions now the big question is how germany how the European Union will continue on that road but we have over this very poisoning case. For the very 1st time question what implications this could have on the project chief Political Editor michelle reporting just outside of the Charity Hospital where we have heard doctors treating russian Opposition Leader alexina vall need they say that today he has been released. Yes. Well the European Commission meantime is expected today to unveil a long awaited policy overall on my question it comes after years of starts and stops and disagreements over how many migrants to take and and where to settle them over that time hundreds of thousands of people have fled war political instability and poverty in search of a better life in your. On the outer edges of europe thousands of Asylum Seekers are trying once more to settle in a new makeshift home anxiously waiting for political leaders to decide their fate. The devastating fire at their previous home the morea refugee camp brought renewed arjan see to europes migrant dilemma but the question remains what is the Long Term Plan for these desperate men women and children. The continents migrant issue became a migration crisis in 2050 that year thousands drawn trying to cross the mediterranean on recchi unseaworthy books in april e. U. Interior ministers proposed a 10 point plan focusing on efforts to combat people smuggling operations and a voluntary Resettlement Program but the situation was moving faster than politicians could keep up with the number of people crossing and dying in the attempt kept on rising. Chairman chancellor Angela Merkel put a positive spin on the crisis the arms of penis officials and us we can do this as germany opened its doors the socalled balkan route became the path of choice for people who wanted to avoid the dangerous expense of mediterranean crossing countries like hungary built border fences to keep them out. Which didnt always work. And early 26 the e. U. Officials announced an agreement to pay turkey billions to manage more than 2000000 refugees from syria who had sought refuge there in return turkey would curb migration into the e. U. Since then the number of illegal crossings have gone down by 90 percent. Yet migrants and refugees continue to make their way often by boat from turkey to nearby greek islands ending up in overflowing camps like the former morea camp which has no. Merit and alexander phenomena is standing by with a view from brussels alexander what more do we know about the commissions proposal. Well it appears at least according to what has been leaked so far that the European Commission is trying to break the deadlock on migration one of the most sensitive issues in the European Union by trying to present a more pragmatic proposal by trying to say that everyones red lines are going to be respected while at the same time by stressing that solidarity with those who have been affected by this crisis most very important that it needs to be amended tory solidarity from what we understand one key issue in this proposal is to beef up screenings for new arrivals at the borders one of our key issue is to intensify affords to return those migrants that were not granted the right to stay in the European Union back to their home countries but of course we have to wait and the to see what exactly is going to propose today and given that youve just highlighted there that we have these countries which are still so locked in so opposed to taking in more migrants take us through the lens of the compromises and the incentives that are in this proposal. So the European Commission is expected to tell those countries countries such as hungary poland the Czech Republic that if they are not willing to take in refugees or migrants that they have to decide to do something instead of that for example one thing that is been circulated here is that they will have to make sure that the certain amount of people who have been rejected the right to stay in the European Union needs to go home that they will sponsor the flight so that they will talk to their governments and countries where people are coming from that might sound like you know nothing nothing not not a big deal but this is a very important issue when we look at the numbers in 2018 only a bold 36 percent of those rejected in europe.
