for me. the end of the election period and the start of a new era in south africa. an era of coalition government at national level, while the ruling african national congress has secured more votes, they needs rivals, it doesn't have the majority to lead the country on its own. we have what this election has made plain is that the people of south africa expect to their lead us to work together to meet the needs. they expect the parties for which they have voted to find to come on gong to overcome their differences, to act and work together for the good of every one political parties. we'll spend the next few days discussing potential coalition agreements, meaning recent photos will have to become fost frames. we've heard about to,

to scenarios in that either in c, d, i s b as the most favorable one in terms of the, of stabilizing the country and stabilizing markets. and we've heard about the a and c s s i m k. but remember, in case got to peak condition note on the plaza. if you don't know if there's, if there's around the close of day, we don't talk you from because it's not that we talk to the n c. many parties have already made it clear. they'll have strict terms and conditions before joining hands with the a and c. i said 10 fundamental things. that's or do you know that this to because for instance, the issue of lent and is not something that you can compromise on. yeah. but what, who are in gauge, open minded, kind of an engagement. and then we'll take it from the political analysts say the a and see we also have to consider what impact the deal would have on both domestic

and foreign policy inside the party. do lead as i agree on the direction that's the part you should take or the post just that the part issue that dropped on the other side. the what you made, tam nation out of the interest of it's 10 other play as will carry quite a you know, way to legitimacy such as business and civil society, an international community who will be putting pressure to political parties as the electoral commission reps up. it's what political parties into the next phase, they have just 14 days within which to form the national and provincial governments . some say this is a very short time for parties who have significant ideological differences to reach an agreement is to the big 13, regardless of who gets the upper hand. the general feeling in the country is that south africa's democracy is the main window in the selection. international

mediators are calling on both israel and her boss to greet, which was proposal put forward by you as president joe biden is really prime minister. benjamin netanyahu is under intense domestic pressure. there is really, protesters want him to reach a cease fire agreement and secure the immediate release of hostages. but as far right allies are tracking to bring down the government, if you dollars. since the beginning of the war, netanyahu has insisted on the total destruction of homos, he has carefully avoided defining any clear timeline for ending the conflict or any discussion of the day of the in gaza. but now his hand may, has been forced by a truce proposal forwarded by us president joe. but the deal would bring a permanent ceasefire in garza, in exchange for the remaining hostages, held by him a crucially,

the us stresses the plan is no. this was, is really a proposal. we have every expectations that if a mazda agrees to the proposal as was transmitted to them and is really proposal, that is where i would say yes, well, how much is it views the proposal positively netanyahu's fall right? allies of fury is got it is a reckless deal. there was no total victory except a total the feed for him us. and i say that a prime minister netanyahu continues to lead this deal. we will dismantle the government to accept the ultimatum has left to the prime minister facing a stock choice. and the clock is ticking. ok last month, one of the members of israel's 3 man war cabinets when it gets delivered to an ultimatum of his own. den scapes the government until june 8th, to come up with a plan for the future in gaza. or he'll withdrawal from the government. the

pressure is mounting on it and yahoo! and it's coming from all sides. we turned to mexico now, where the country's moving party has declared left one year claudia, showing them the winter of the election, and on course to become the nation's 1st female president. as exit polls give seen by a double digit lead over her nearest rival. it's mexico's biggest election with nearly one a 100000000 voters able to make the choice. the campaign, however, was marked by violence involving drug cartels with at least 37 candidates, murdered. dw corresponds nicole reese joins me now from mexico. so it seems mexico my son's 1st female president. what's the latest on the poor results? aaron, we're seeing these numbers coming in the preliminary. of course, these are exit polls that have started around an hour ago and they show us that shane balm has a 60 percent of the votes. apparently,

obviously we need to be cautious about these numbers because that hasn't been a very official announcement yet. the more in our party, in the meantime, has already used this occasion to call out on people to come to the main square view and mexican city to celebrate this positively landslide victory. it's been a long day of voting mostly peacefully here in mexico, with some smaller incidents. one of them being that 2 people have died in connection with violence at the polling stations. and the 2 municipalities weren't able to go to the polls because of violence. they were not on the elections deb was suspended, but all in all, it was a quite peaceful day after this whole series of assets, the nations ahead of the elections. it was one of the bloodiest election campaigns that the country has seen in its history. but now as the night goes on, i think very soon we will have the confirmation that claudia shane bottom is, uh,

the next president. if things go like the way that they go now. all right, so let's go back to those results. we can for a moment, a landslide victory for she also makes sure the 1st single present from mexico. so how significant is this? when actually for machine gun it is his story, cuz this is really historic. because mexico obviously never has seen a woman in charge of the country as president, and this actually ends centuries of male domination in this highest office of the country. so it also gives women in the country hope and sort of a sense of pride and confidence that these things are possible for women in mexico . we're looking at the country with a very high rates of crime of gender based violence. um, there are around 10 women per day that are being killed in mexico. so this is a country where violence against women is really one of the topics. all one of the

some, some people also also say it is one of the illnesses of the country really. and that needs to be obviously tackled by somebody who then is a female leader in the country. it will be interesting to see how close the assignment goes around that because she has promised that you obviously will stand on the side of the women to try to improve things in the country. not everybody is showing that you will be able to do that. she is a direct candidate that lopez open at the order here the current president still has been presenting to the public and has been supporting. so it would be a piece of a continue to that we're looking here as well. and as we can see, the lopez over the little government hasn't basically tackled the issue of violence and also not the tackle uh tech of the issue of gender based violence here in the country. which is huge because of the growing power of criminals and organized crime in the country,

which impacts all layers of society really also the political a us and therefore shapes politics here in mexico as well. it's a huge problem. the right, that was the deputies nicole reese, reporting for us from mexico. thank you very much for your recording. and here's a brief look at some other stories making headlines around the world. a police officer has died 2 days after being stabbed. attacking the drum, the city of mannheim, the ceiling targeted your right wing, anti islam riley. several other people were injured before police shot and seriously wounded. the nice man ukraine's president has urged top defense officials to attend an upcoming global p summit. he made the appeal in front of defense ministers at a security conference, and singapore and ski said he wants to put forward proposals to in the warren ukraine. at the summit in switzerland, in mid june, we will address point. south korea says it will retaliate against its neighbour.
