any sports events good stories ok thanks let me use update tournaments and i could go on for hours but did you tell me about would you feel better check it out yourself here on youtube. this is the w.'s line from berlin france's president calls for more european unity in a highly anticipated speech emanuel mccall said they e.u. is too weak to slow and too inefficient he wants a joint budget for the eurozone under shed military intervention force but i will

not go down that road in france and across the rest of the e.u. also on the program. just two days after germany's rightwing i after day you celebrated huge election campaigns they you posses carlita resigned. and he severely criticised treatment of minorities and fights for the poorest of the pull out human rights lawyer called and called gonzales as one of the alternative nobel prize the right to life but. i'm still go welcome to the program french president emmanuel mccraw is delivering a long awaited speech on his vision for the european union addressing a crowd of the so bone university in paris he has described the current a use systems as weak slow ineffective and cold for i shan't budget for the

eurozone more cooperation on terrorism and proposed a european rapid reaction force to work in tandem with nato. well they w.y.l. your correspondent catherine martin says there are so welcome a catholic president. visit to europe with greater cooperation and all sorts of levels how does he propose together. but as far as we heard in the speech the french president seems to be willing to use the same toolbox he's used to become french president he really focuses on a very local approach to get back to the european citizens to trigger a real european debate with the europeans as citizens about the do's and downs in the european union so this would mean a change in the european decision making not any more a top down approach with heads of states making decisions without the citizens but

a bottom up. approach integrating european citizens and so he wants to reach out to your septic. people across the european union to be appealed regarding the european union ok let's hear some of what the french president had to say regarding terrorism. we have to strengthen our projects in order to fight against terrorism and to combat terrorist propaganda on the internet and we have to strengthen our cyber security and to create security and a common security and just displaying. other matters in paris tell us more about president proposals for combating terror. well we already saw in the way he structured hits his speech he really put terrorism and in a broader approach to security and the very heart of his or european proposal

saying that the condition for peace and everything else the foundation of the european union is security and there he came up with a quite strong proposal joint military intervention force in order to join and to cooperate more on the european level across the european countries so this is a strong proposal i think there is coming ground in the european union in the post that you and i think the french president and his entourage they were aware of it that this could be a good timing to propose such a strong proposition and what do they have to say about the controversial topic of migration. well indeed as you say it's a very controversial very sensitive sense of point in the european union and he proposed common european asylum office in order to to proceed to.

make more efficient and more faster procedures for its you asylum seeker spots i think there will be as well skepticism in the european union because the european union has a lot of agencies and offices across the e.u. and just creating a new institution is not always the best practice when it comes to the daily work of the european union. after martin's in paris thank you. i will have more on iran your across speech in the business in just a few minutes here on d.w. news as a friendship president and his goals for a stronger european union bret's it looms over the bloc and european council president donald tosca said that sufficient progress has not been made on talks to move ahead to the next stage of negotiations but he did welcome what he called a more constructive and realistic tone now coming from the british government his

comments came during the hear his visit with the prime minister theresa may in london which is may says a solution beneficial to both sides can still be found that's the terms of the fallout from the german election the far right alternative for germany is facing fresh turmoil after their resulting success in the country's election co-leader franco petrie has announced that she would leave the party although she hasn't said when the f.t. course a political upset by taking the early thirteen percent of the vote making it the third largest party in the new german parliament. it should have been a day of triumph for the f.d.a. after surging to germany's parliament the biggest. but party co-chair foca petri was glaringly absent a day earlier she'd said she wouldn't be part of the if these parliamentary group because the party had moved too far to the right the question now is whether other deputies will follow her and go. as a bit intimate code don't expect any further deputies to leave but more have to

wait and see the move surprised us all here but we've not yet seen any tendencies within the future problem entry group and second. haiti was one of the f.t.'s most prominent faces but she had been sidelined by hardliners in recent months. on monday she dropped her bombshell she was leaving. kalvin she didn't i have decided that i don't want to be a member of the a.f.p. parliamentary group and the german bund is talk taking up my seat in this one this talk as an independent but rest assured i'll remain actively engaged in politics is vital and active politically not on the other. but she won't be with a populist k.f.t. it's drift towards the far right and left her isolated and her husband marcus that's a who is if the party leader in the state of north rhine-westphalia is also quitting the party. just two days after it's stunning election success the

f.t. has been engulfed by internal turmoil. let's get more on this from digitally political correspondent simon young who's at the bundestag where the newly elected parliamentary groups are holding their first meetings welcome simon i would frankly petrie's departure affect day after day. well phil despite expressions of surprise that you heard in that piece there i think that it wasn't entirely here a surprise for a patriot become very much detached from the main stream of the f.t. over the last few months she's said it again and again that she doesn't support this hardline right wing of course and you know so for her to leave the party is pretty much just the logical conclusion of her decision yesterday not to join the parliamentary group come as a little sort of bombshell for the media and shows that there are these divisions within the f.t. that people have talked about they're not yet quite

a normal stable party that bedded down but this hasn't this isn't going to make a huge difference to them they'll press on they say and the two co-leaders alexander gallanter now is vital say that they believe they have most of the party behind them there has been talk that a patron might take some people with her as she tries to form a new group or something in parliament that doesn't look very likely just now she's a charismatic figure and so it damages them a little bit in that sense but the i.f.t. still there and they're still talking provocatively and raising controversy. simon you stay with us place we'll talk more in just a moment so as they have to work out their party differences a week into angela merkel has had ect on her own she has to cobble together a new government former partners the social democrats have ruled out joining her c.d.u. partner a party in another coalition before instead to head up the opposition so merkel's

only option may be to link up with the pro-business free democrats and the environmentalist greens but those two parties have little in common. two days after the election news paper headlines showed just how difficult it will be to form a government. has to fight chancellor looking for her course for the conservative bloc c.d.u. and c.s.u. finding the right course will be a major issue but anglo-american doesn't see flaws in her party's priorities if you can't see what we now need to change. from actually building a coalition will be a tricky task she has to bring together how conservative to very insistent party c.s.u. with the greens and the liberals all three want their own demands to be met. as. you can my view it's absolutely essential that we set out a clear commitment to stemming the influx of refugees in other words

a cap on numbers. that's what we've promised people. to do just cause we end the present humanitarian refugee policy the business friendly f.t.p. has already described its main goal to avoid the traditional language the direction of politics this needs to be a turning point and if that's impossible they'll go into a position. up that's the opposites you want for the german bundestag difficult times might be ahead. let's go back to day w a political correspondent sabra young at the bundestag simon how is i'm going to like me to approach these coalition talks. well they're going to be very difficult talks americal knows that i think she probably got off to the wrong start yesterday when she sort of said well she believes that the general course of government policy over the last few

years has been the right one and she wants to continue with that there are going to have to be changes i think that is clear you've seen a much sort of tougher and more confident line from the varian conservatives the c.s.u. today and the varian leader was here just a short time ago saying that he's very very confident they can get a government but of course he means a government that takes on board a lot of what the c.s.u. has been saying that hard line on the immigration issue in particular calling for an absolute cap on the number of people allowed to come to germany and that's something that the greens in particular are going to find very very hard to agree to so angle americal is going to have to square that circle and many others many differences of opinion between the greens in the free democrats as well it's going to be a long and difficult process and a lot of people here are saying you know it's unlikely that this coalition can be

put together before the end of this year all right regardless of all of that former coalition partners the social democrats said a straight after the election they wouldn't go back into a coalition and yet i'm going to merkel has said that she will she will talk to them about joining her her in government again so does she believe she can change martin shelters mind. well first of all i think the reason she's saying that she's home keeping the door open to the social democrats is in order to give herself as it were a bit more leverage in the talks with the other parties because as it were it gives her that potential option she's going to go back to the social democrats but no martin short to say he's going to be in opposition and i don't really see that changing unless of course you know there's no chance of putting together this so-called jamaica option then there may be you know maybe so much pressure on the

social democrats to come together in the national interest that option will be probably revisited later in the year so many young the bundestag in bergen thank you let's take you back to our top story panel france's president emanuel macross laying out his vision for europe and it's a speech that financial markets have been following closely certainly considering all of his proposals by core says the eurozone needs a joint budget and harmonized taxes to stay globally relevant he argues that would also reduce inequalities across the bloc let's get the view from franco conrad who then is that the stock exchange for us government when my core said that the e.u. is too weak to slow and too inefficient i thought he was talking about france. yes well he for sure try to motivate his compatriots to wake them up to encourage

to embrace change but also you know by listing all the challenges that our societies are facing right now migration globalization education unemployment you name it he spoke to the whole continent and he won through europe to be the answer here and not an obstacle and. actually achieving that he's going to surely need a strong partner that strong partner being germany i guess. yes he needs a government in berlin willing to support a further integration of the european union and the eurozone and that's where the problem lies it's the liberal democrats the party that's potentially becoming a new government member a member of this new coalition which has a tendency to look at europe rather as something that germany pays a lot of money for and stead of seeing at it as an opportunity for peace for common values and common solutions back to you in

a moment conrad because the maker of france's high speed trains is expected to announce merger with german industrial giant siemens today it's a huge and politically tricky deal that create a new european champion the board of partly state controls them is meeting to discuss the tie up with its german competitor who is of major industrial companies are extremely sensitive in france the supervisory board of munich based the minutes is also meeting to discuss the deal as well as further ventures with canada's bond group. or comrade another french german success story or just a whole lot of job cuts what is this well it's likely that this entails job cuts but given that the french government the french state is a big shareholder of storm it's likely that the two sides will want to prove that they can make this merger the european way you know in a consensus oriented way and. what's important also is that

this entails a lot of opportunity in terms of strategic this could create the second largest rainmaker in the world after the chinese market leaders see r.r.c. that's a big thing conrad thank you. buba has struggled with scandals this year accusations of sexism suggestions that you software to hide information from regulators last week london's transport authorities decided not to renew his license to operate in the british capital citing a lack of corporate responsibility now the company's new c.e.o. is having to apologize for the firm's past mistakes. the new c.e.o. of goober dara consortia he apologized for his past mistakes on monday in a public attempt to show london authorities that the company is willing to change to retain its right to operate in the city because rasha acknowledged that the company got things wrong during its global expansion london's mayor said econo
