of the supply chain process. all that much. illegal leather stats may said on d w, the top diplomats, where germany a bouquet or in israel today as in restraints in response to iran's unprecedented messiah and drone, i talked last week. the worry is asked and he's right, the military response might provoke abroad at war in the region. while these ready to government says it will respond with prime minister benjamin netanyahu promising allies only that each country would make its own decision. so today when you take a look at the complicated web of loyalties, i'm on arab countries in the region. i'm feel gale in berlin and this is the day the

funny movie i sent girlfriends for the support and defending israel. israel has the complete solidarity. iran will face consequences. this is right, is all making a decision to act. we hope they do. so the way it does as little to escalate this as possible, because we will make our decisions on our own. and the state of israel will do what it needs to defend itself. again, that's what it wrong, and it's proxies like hezbollah, ms not pour anymore oil into the fire. but the real lead is to re focus back on her mass back on the hostages back on getting the agent back to me on the back on getting a pause in the company. think of also coming up as people plan this summer holidays this year. the message from the man of fitness is don't. com. it is a said to me, i the out of 7000000000 people in the world to everyone hopes in their dreams to

come to venice. at least one was equal to the song you're given it. i mean, i've always done a nice yeah. you've done the math and stuff and 1000000000 people can't all be physically present in venice at the same time as you come in. they don't, you're welcome to the day. germany's foreign minister has concluded our visit to israel, aimed at diffusing tensions with iran, and allow me a bad welcome administrating fine medicine benjamin netanyahu to discuss the full amount from the runs unprecedented aerial attack of the weekend. during the day she met the issue as we have present the exec hetzel in jerusalem. like many of israel's allies, germany has been urging the escalation in the conflict. but usually it is meanwhile, amazing and brussels to focus on tensions in the middle east. and the war in ukraine. francis presidents has called on me a you to impose more sanctions against around following last week's attack. some

countries also wanting to block the cold for sci fi and gaza and the release of hostages held by a mass. and this is what i'm consider that this response to be around is attacked and continues to fight. it's 4 against thomas in gaza that a fee is over way of these regional tensions could have the complex part of the world with many bibles vying for influence, israel's neighbor, jordan and regional heavy weight, saudi arabia both appear to help defend israel from iran's missiles to the surprise of many countries that are involved in a complicated balancing act to make it difficult to predict the future actions when the drones and missiles from a run came flying towards israel. many of them passed through jordan's space. not only needed the arab kingdom help shoot them down. it also opened its s base to his riley and us planes seeking to intercept the amount insist that was strictly to protect his own citizens. but jordan's king abdullah has to balance competing

interests. jordan is pro weston and likes to keep in step with his allies, especially the united states, plus jordan. she has a loan boda with israel and once peaceful relations. a mine often works behind the scenes with these riley authorities. but israel is born in gaza has outraged many jordanians. one 5th of the population is of palestinian descent, including king of done as a wife. the government has vociferously condemned to the rule, but the kingdoms perceive defense of israel in the face of been rainy and miss silas has an good many jordan's powerful neighbors, saudi arabia also faces a difficult balancing act. the sunni kingdom views she, i'd run as its biggest regional rival, but last year it re established relations with to run both the saudis and the

united arab emirates of thought to improve ties with iran and israel. prior to israel's intervention and goes it saudi crown. prince mohammed been so mind looks boys to sign a deal with the us, where the kingdom might have recognized israel in return for security guarantees from washington. but off to 6 months of war and gaza on tens of thousands of palestinians dead dots of the table. for now, still are the officials say both the saudis, on the amorous shed intelligence with the americans, warning that era on was planning an attack on israel. that probably allowed for a most successful defensive response by israel on this ice. the challenge for our leaders is to keep the us on side well, not endangering the delicate relationship with iran or being seen by their own people, a supporting israel at the expense of public opinions in gaza. wexler,

a senior director of the roof, it can be re sent a release programs, i think the atlantic council, welcome to the w a. let's start with that complicated balancing access, facing arab countries. in this conflict, does future co operation with arab states like saudi arabia, full part of israel is calculation when it comes to calibration gets response to iran's attack. absolutely. uh, one of the real differences in what we've seen now, and what we saw just a little while ago is that the israel's war. and it also was dividing it from its arab neighbors. israel's conflict with around is bringing is a real together with this era. neighbors was a very different dynamic. so too much and you risk inflaming the inflaming allies that you spent decades. i tried to get on the side or indeed the

average of uh, arab is very upset about israel's war and nozzle. the average our government is very concerned about the spread that around poses. and so it's a balancing act that these governments have to do. most of these governments also have no love lost for him off. um, so it's a balancing act that they've been doing now ever since october 7th. and jordan's position seems particularly precarious. how does jordan's king abdullah fall in strong public support for palestinians, which choosing down to a rainy and missiles? well, it's a very clear narrative for him. he is defending the sovereignty of georgia, indiana aerospace. the radians entered into his aerospace that was an invasion of sovereignty. without the permission of jordan as oh, he was fully in his rights to defend his country and his people from those that's

the narrative that she is presenting towards people. that's a narrative that he should have been to the world that is also legally and practically correct. it will also be viewed by song as a support for his room. and is there any benefits to a room for the jordan shooting down a range in my files? the land is trying to walk a very fine line of their own. they're trying to enhanced insurance against israel because they're very upset about the success and his realize had in targeting a number of senior randy and military leaders. they're also trying to not promote a wider regional war. they're very happy with the situation that they have, and they're trying to create a new normal, which allows them to strike directly out as real from the very 1st time. and for that to somehow be accepted as a as aware behavior that um the lines with the rest of their malign behavior

throughout the region will pick that a pos and i've especially why they've a ryan decided that now was the time to attack israel directly. instead of threw proxies really because of israel success back to the beginning of the month, they, uh, they targeted the number of senior leaders, including one that was very important to the coach for us. one that as a personal relationship with the supreme leader, you know, and, and they killed it. and that was seen by a ran or something that they have to respond to. they don't like the fact it is real. so successful of taking out their, their channels. okay. and so this new normal that you mentioned, that was how it ran, benefits from boss. this is a part of the uranium playbook for many decades. now what they do is they march up the escalation ladder until they're pushed down. they march back up again. and what

they try to do is create an environment in which they can get the world to accept behavior that would otherwise be considered completely unacceptable. they are literally the only country in the world that regime we use our susan weapon to read a non state actors and instructs them to fire them across international border to intentionally target civilians. but they do that so routinely that we don't even comment on it because they've had their allies and has belong, move tens of thousands of his relatives out of their home in the north. a year ago that would have, you would have said that was a prelude to war, but they've done that below or they have their allies, the fees in the bottom, and i'm straight shut down all international shipping again a year ago, that would have been and probably we weren't, they've been able to do that below the threshold of war. and now they're trying to establish the ability to, to get israel directly from a rating and territory. so given that new normal as you describe your day for

israel, does act militarily and decisively. what does the ron do? does it go back up about escalation? a lot of does he want a full on direct conflict with his ro, a rand doesn't want to fall on conflict and originally been a real short, wonderful and complex. israel hasn't changed full in gaza right now. and, and there are other military activities that they need to do. so hopefully we won't be in that scenario. what folks in jerusalem are trying to figure out is how did they send a signal that tells a ran that they do not accept the ability for a ran to target them directly. but at the same time does not result in a wire regional war. that's what, that's why they've been taking 2 days to work this out in jerusalem. okay, that's very clear. thank you so much for walking us through that. but in wexler from the atlantic council, thank you. thank you very much. international

conference as far right politicians and i suppose as resumed in brussels on wednesday after police shut it down a french fall. right? politician eric, the more had been due to address the contract, but was turned away by police on tuesday evening on the orders of the local mass. mass said they were concerns about public safety. the belgians, prime minister criticize the order which a quarter since overturned, the national conservative conference brought together politicians like come gallium, 5 minutes to victor, old on britain's former interior administer. so the problem was that, as well as nationalist and fundamentalist christians, i missed all i had of european parliamentary elections in june. so what's going on with last got brussels correspondence, rosie, but john, who was at the conference, welcome rosie. so talk us through what happened as yeah, i was indeed at this conference earlier and it's basically

a gathering which is meant to raise together people from the rights of the political spectrum. so from the, for the rights of a center. right, right. so the far right, the different political group, things, different politicians, they have faced and put practical hurdles in guessing this event of the ground here in brussels. they struggled to find the venue, but the dates find one of the conference has kicked off on tuesday, but then a local mer. and i should say, there are 19 of the local mirrors in brussels. we're talking but very regionalized decision making to an order and a sent in police 2 shots the, the conference. but not only to be temporary because that order by that local mirror was then overturned by a local league way of, of the belgian legal body. and it was also heavily criticized by the belgians prime minister amid all of that control oversee. well, that meant that by the time that i go to the conference earlier on wednesday, well it was back up, fully running on little late in the way of drama going on there. on the day 2 of

the conference, things moving quite smoothly. it seems which different political leaders, including the former polish prime minister and the current, the 100 prime minister taking to the stage. and so what do we think the mass claims about a danger to public or the well, but a real, a political as well. the mayor has, of course, faced a lot of criticism, not only from those that were attending the conference, who refused to his council culture, but also as i said from right, really across the political spectrum. also, the belgian prime minister, who's very much a centrist in his politics, criticized this local murder. he was defiance even after the court returned his order. he said it was based on what he believed was a threat to public order. he talks about the fact that those in attendance included people, he seems to be for vocal tours, home folds. however, he also said that he does not hide the fact that he has no type of patience for those who he describes to be as people who preach hate. no, that is so regardless of that fact, the court has made

a decision that he and the mayor of acknowledges that democracy has taken its course there. but it's hard not to see this in a way that at least to the fact that mirror seems to have handed those politicians gathers and brussels a whole lot of extra publicity. yeah, there is, there is that. so we have always these right wing is gathered out of course the background. so this is your opinion, parliamentary elections that began in june and how a right wing pause is expected to do in those. yeah, well look, there is a white polling and predictions that face parliamentary election is likely to result in a swing to the right here in brussels of the european parliament. know the question really is just how far right, that swing is going to be the lose or is our project seems to be the green groups, but also these, the said, so center, less socialist and democrats,

and also the centrist, renew your group. it's important to note that into europe in parliament, it's not like some national parliaments where you might have to big parties that facing each other off. instead, there were lots of different political good things right across the political spectrum of that is why, what it will really come down to when these alexis get going in june of course, 2070 you members. so really it's $27.00 different elections overall is going to be the exact political arithmetic of how they end up. because the brussels observers are going to be looking out for is how can these different groups and get together to try and get sort of sort of a majority to pass key pieces of legislation. which of course, if you're repeating parliament's jobs so far, will lose looking to be the winner. according to some big polling is the group of your piece of services and reform is that includes, for example, george and maloney's party, the brothers of a, of a tally. there's also likely to be a waiting or a games, at least from the even further write a group which is called identity and democracy that includes for example, the alternative for germany party, but also maureen la, penn, national,

raleigh from france. they are expected to make some gains. i think what's going to be with the interest these particularly for legislation like climate policies trying the making good on this big claim. it promises waste that predicted, right swing, that could be more complicated moving forward. ok, thanks for taking us through that, rosie rosie, but john in brussels, a spines canary islands, one of us most popular holiday destination since becomes the latest hotspot planning to tighten rules. on short term vacation rentals, spain well direct quote, 85000000 international visitors last year, tourism accounts for moving 12 percent of the economy, but many local state. the booming apartment, rent of business is making the neighborhoods too expensive and service in the kinetic who's planning protests. we can to demand a great to say in local development last another european destination that's made

headlines by its efforts to control mass. tourism is venice. and this is already banned. giant cruise ship from docking and unloading thousands of the day trip is that it's historic center not from next week. the city is launching a test program. declining all visitors to register for entry into the 6 weeks. those not staying overnight will have to pay a $5.00 your fee on the peak travel days. this is matt is defending the policy psych, it's an attempt to reduce overcrowded because you're set the media out of 7000000000 people in the world to every one hopes in their dreams to come to venice. at least one was equal to the song you'd even need. i mean, i've always done a nice yeah. you've done the math and 7000000000 people can't all be physically present in venice at the same time as you come in. they don't just on that belief. beauty isn't an end in itself. it's not only true of venice, but then this is an example of. this is why we must be served the great historic cities of the world on the sea venice and die in the crush. alessandra pre on to is

to do president of italy's national tourism office. it. she previously serves as that you'd have direct to the lens tourism agency. she joins us tonight from brussel. so welcome to d. w. so we have the matter of very fact, really believing there's a limit to the number of torres the city can handle. what do you think that limit should be? the 1st of all, having a limit for people is a very big word because in principle we cannot stop people from travelling, nor from entering what the measure of seems to be, i guess. and the idea of the mayor is to create some kind of a smaller control on who is entering. at what moment the mayor clearly preferred to be times. but what these taxes should do is they should generate very important and intelligent data that must be used in order to program back to the

flux. because we should be able to know who is coming when and in, in, i mean be able to actually control in a way the flux is in to divert that may be to a nearby destinations when there's a peak. so if you use the tax or as a mean of sort of controlling that and contributing to managing themselves, then it's a very intelligently writing it. on the other hand, you're using it just to gain money. it doesn't really help is face problem with over tourism. do you do? is it, is this a try and because it's not just venice that kind of have is i have to assess the boss alone and also talking about this issue, is this a rising trend or is it, is it just in certain areas? unfortunately, you may see

a lot like this as if we went to sleep at the end of 2019. and we woke up now with exactly the same say, which ration even worse, because there's some new destinations, especially in like smaller destination villages or other like say, internal areas that were developed during coping thanks to the fact that we were mainly being domestic war. now. absolutely overcrowded, right? so it is a little blurry that it seems like we haven't learned the less and it's not just numbers is a low because often blame the short term vacation rentals are pricing the hours of the housing market does not need to be looked at. absolutely, there needs to be uh, rules and the ones that are going to be implemented as of european level are very important. initially our ministry and the minister herself is leading a review. what care for review on this?

and the review goes through the identification of everyone that has the possibility of putting up short term rentals, giving them a quote. and being able to actually looked at look at, you know, what is being offered. the problem is that not everybody know everybody can be a hotel. yea. and the idea of having absolutely no control doesn't help writing the now, if you're not be for security reasons, because when there's, for example, terrorist threats, we have the urgency to know exactly who is, where am i doing? what is it? it's interesting, these bits that you say that the b, e, u is looking list looking at this problem as a, a blog because it's a sort of thing that you would have thought needed to be handled locally. no, not necessarily. absolutely. first of all, you need to have common rules because when you're dealing with the global platform,

for example, like air b and b or other ones, you need to have a come on position because discriminating doesn't really help the fact that one place is like more liberal more open than the other doesn't really help. we all need to have common rules because the problems are exactly the same. you mentioned by someone that being back into this issue. but i can also mention other cities in the north like amsterdam, where the, let's say the negative sentiment towards terrorism is rising. so this has to put in a position where we ask ourselves the question, can we make the tourism really a positive ellen? okay, for everyone rather than something that is being suffered. all right, thank you for that. okay, so that was on the printer from the time to national tourism office. thank you so much for having me. thank you. not to paris, of course, no stranger to mass tourism. the 2024 island picks begin in

pace parisians are in piece of painting the events with mixed feelings or links excited. no, sorry that certainly not the right answer. i'm not a to and excited about the olympics, even if it is still a great event. it's a paris for fonts, for probably enough off real. it does have yes, we're looking forward to it because it's a chance for us to see the olympic games and friends for me as possible. i mean, i don't think the city of parents itself is ready by can so effect on monday, french president emanuel macro and visited the grand palace. the iconic museum is undergoing renovations, and will host of fencing and ty quando. despite the excitement, the president was clear, the safety comes fast confirming that the opening ceremony could move inside a security risk for the athletes. on 300000 inspect, tate says is too high,
