world from different perspectives. joining us inspired by distinctive instagram hours at g.w. story the topic each week on instagram. this is deja news coming to you live from berlin long and protracted talks in the german capital and the country is still no closer to a new government chills the anger of america's conservatives george with their potentially coalition partners in the early hours of this morning a fresh round of discussions is now resuming a leading c.d.u.

politician gives his assessment to do job deal also coming up in zimbabwe the on the wrist allies of president robert mugabe a lot of efforts to get him to resign now mugabe his own zanu p.f. party has joined on him saying he must put a face impeachment. show of the anglo american is talking before coalition talks resume let's have a listen to what she's saying. i know we talked about our lot of details this young. and it's not a job so trivial. to now come up with a comprehensive package about to i have the will to deal with them and i really want to make sure you will that the mandate the voters have given us to form a government become a reality it's both. also it was. very hard work but it's very much worthwhile to

continue with a second round. you just heard chancellor angela merkel as she was entering for a fresh round of discussions i'm under that she my you're watching welcome now the question is can germany put together a new government not talks between conservatives the free democrats and the greens went into the early hours of this morning but missed their own deadline to strike a deal right now party leaders are due to push ahead with their talks at the headquarters of america's c.d.u. party some negotiators expect them to extend into the weekend the thoughts went through last night but failed to get enough formal coalition talks to begin if the parties remain unable to do that germany could end up new elections and just in a couple of minutes ago we heard chancellor angela merkel as she was going in for the fresh round of talks she said and she emphasized there were big differences

between the potential coalition partners but she said there was enough common ground to go ahead and go on with the second round of talks of course we keep it up to date once results come in but one of the most difficult issues in these talks is rather people with temporary refugee status in germany should be able to bring their families to join them it's a right they used to have but it was suspended after an influx of syrian refugees came to germany many only have a short on right to say let's take a look at the different parties what they have to say on this particular issue. it's very very important to us that immigration doesn't increase. the numbers we're looking at with family reunification or in the hundreds of thousands. that's why we cannot agree to a solution that sees an expansion of immigration. i'm not going. to go into detail but one thing is

a very important point is family reunification even further is on a subsidiary protection visa this is a vital measure and we're going to insist on a suite everything in our power. if along these very difficult. video evidence forked with going to drinks he is a member of the c.d.o. body and the deputy interior minister mr riggs one of the sticking points at these negotiations is the migration issue especially family reunion what is the big problem here the big problem i think is that we went beyond the average of the european union of the other member countries that only allow family reunion for geneva convention refugees to a certain type of refugees that are fleeing from prosecution in their home countries we extended this two years ago to all refugees from civil war and of course this makes germany very very attractive because we do more and accept more people than almost all the other countries in the european union and this has to

change to at least the position of the christian democrats here and that's one of the indeed major points in these export tory talks that we're now in. the greens have a completely different standpoint on that one. where do you see a possibility for compromise then i think for me personally it's very important that for the future we make clear that all people that come to germany as refugees can only have family reunion if they are accepted and to acknowledge under the g. but don't leave a convention if they're what the european union called just refugees and a subsidiary protection and they can't have any familiar family reunion because we make have to make it clear germany cannot afford more than the average of the european union if we want the european solution to the refugee problem we can't go our own way and we can't offer a whole different kind of treatment than the average of the european union migration is only one of the big conflicting issues that we have seen in during the last days how highly or how likely do you think is compromise on the other issues.

this issue is a difficult issue but not insolvable and there are other issues like a budget questions and educations but i think a solution is possible i think one of the problem is that we're now doing this these negotiations into a very new form and it's a first to have expert tory talks not not a few days but of weeks and then start the real negotiations maybe in two weeks so all the negotiators now think they have to squeeze and everything in into this first paper maybe if we would acknowledge that we have two still a few major question to solve in the second step of these negotiations this would become a little bit easier so it's problematic a lot of work to do but i still think it can work how likely are fresh elections i don't think that we can and should talk about fresh elections because the people expect from the parties elected that they they find a solution also if you look at the opinion polls i don't think fresh elections would offer us an opportunity that would be any any easier if you see than the how

the federal parliament it's set up then so i actually think we should come up with a solution in the next weeks thank you so much that was going to dip u.t. interior minister and member of the c.d.u. party and that was the original point of view talking as you had to go into trains at the cd you bought a novel along this coalition talks with helena. i think. even though the german government's potential coalition partners a not yet sure whether they will form a government together they're already talking about which projects will be funded and which weren't the german industry and trade association says that's not even necessary strong economic growth together with more tax income have opened the door to more financial possibilities which the association says could be allocated for tax breaks and investments it sees more money in germany's treasury in the

political parties do seventy five billion euros will avail of be available in the coming years that's what the association says the parties themselves assumes them but was forty five billion euros. caymans first president of the institute of economic research here in germany joins me in the studio good to have you with us so move money in at the cough is potentially i mean do you agree with that assessment what's your take in principle i agree i mean if the balanced budget is the reference point there is money available for thirty billion in two thousand and eighteen and more in two thousand and nineteen of cause half of that goes to the states and we're talking about the federal government here so i would say it's something like fifteen billion at the federal level available you know per year sixty billion over four years that would be available for tax cuts almost spending now these talks have been going on for a month now and what does that mean in terms of investment has that put the brakes on a little bit and what would the fallout be from fresh elections i don't think it will

put a brake on the best and currently the dumb economy is running at full capacity so country companies do have problems executing their investment but that's you know because they're not people available everything is running at full steam so i don't think these negotiation or will negotiations will hold hold of things that would be different if there was a longer phase of uncertainty like you know reactions to in the government and the feel that there were. not a stable government in germany but we are far from that or i am with the prospect of the coalition do you feel that the money will be available for the necessary economic projects well there is enough money around my concern is that this is not really the point in time to spend more we are in an economic boom so it would be much more important to sort out which kinds of spending we that exists do we really need and where should we invest more i think we should invest more in certain parts of the infrastructure in preparing people for digitalisation for autumn ization in

the economy so investing into education skills that would be important but we also spend a lot of money on a rather useless thing so we should think about reshuffling money rather than spending more and do you think that that would come to fruition with the current potential coalition constellation i would hope so but there are so many parties sitting at the table and every party has its supporters and they want to give them something so my concern is that you know they will spend the money now and in the next downturn that money will be missing and of course some spending is necessary where do you see the need for it in terms of projects infrastructure and so on germany there are parts of the infrastructure of the traffic infrastructure bridges over the rhine where investment is necessary and the whole area of digitization preparing people for the new digital economy is very important i think this is more important than a rolling out the last fiber nationally investing into people is even more

important than investing into infrastructure claimants first president of the institute of economic research in germany thank you for your perspective thank you . zimbabwe's president robert mugabe has been seen in public for the fust time since the military took power on wednesday he gave a speech at a university graduation ceremony and this comes as the army said it was making progress in persuading him to resign offices also moved into a rest and number of mugabe's allies mugabe who is ninety three has been held under house arrest by the military since what they are calling an intervention. joining me now from harare is human rights activist a dog to what is your ancestor and really president mugabe step down or will he be pushed out. that. is the question on the new

ones terms here that yesterday a deal had been struck but but now it seems that the government is backtracking on that he does have a trump card. even that he's pushed out that will undermine the legitimacy of this government process and so someone who is desperate to cling to power as we've seen over the last thirty seven years i don't think he's going to give up power so it may make come to the start or it may end up being a failed coup. and just how worried are you as a human rights activist about this military intervention given that this army until recently supported mugabe's regime which has been accused of huge human rights violations in the past. absolutely the major concerns

we have been encouraged by. the explicit statements made by the military that that's they are here to respect people's rights and certainly their conduct has has has matched that as well in general they had been quite peaceful apart from some scuffles with some some some violence involving. zanu p.f. politicians so so that has been encouraging but there are major concerns around us and i think. there are concerns as well from a political perspective that this could just simply be an internal settlement with then zanu p.f. that results in and you of the returned regime with with nothing much more than us that basically now been one doc the fact vice president has ever turned to hold on to the opposition media morgan chang and i is also back what are the chances then off some kind of

a transitional government being formed. i think that the transitional government is is is really essential is really early way out for us now. the wheels of transition have begun in motion now and as i say this this this transitional this transition will not be sustainable if it's merely an internal zanu p.f. solution and it will not have any legitimacy. both in the eyes of zimbabweans or in the eyes of the international community if it's not a real transition towards democratic consolidation with real reforms that implement it so that we can have free and fair elections so i think that that transitional authority will i think that the military young men to go were probably understand that because they have a huge legitimacy problem whether that will happen i think really really remains to be seen as this so much up in the dug out of

a human rights lawyer and activists in harare thank you very much thanks very much for having me. less articulate at some other stories making news around the watch the trumpet ministrations says it will allow the importing of elephant body parts from zimbabwe and zambia and this reverses a ban by the former president barack obama conservationists view this ruling as a big setback which could lead to more elephant that. negotiators in the german city of gone are wrapping up a u.n. sponsored talks about how to best implement the paris climate accord they're trying to come up with an action plan to cut carbon dioxide emissions and limit global warming. a former head of the syrian mafia till two arena has died at the age of eighty seven he was in an italian prison hospital where he'd been serving twenty six ly percent and says reno was one of the most feared godfathers of the core sinatra crime family in the one nine hundred seventy s.

employees. zimmerman's workers took to the streets as the job cuts were announced. the industrial giant said it would slash two percent of its workforce despite billions in profits a decision met with a shock. you know i can't understand it at all i just thought they're playing around or it's incorrect information until now you can't close down a factory working at full capacity and especially not here in germany's east. the company blamed the shift to green sources of energy like solar power for the move. board member lesa davis said the power generation industry is experiencing disruption of unprecedented scope and speed renewables are pushing other forms of power generation under increasing pressure today's action follows a nearly three year effort to rightsize the business for this changing marketplace

. zeman says its power and gas division is worst hit by the switch to renewables demand for gas turbines has tumbled dress thickly depressing prices and profits and that means six thousand nine hundred jobs around the world must go almost half are in germany with the country's east hardest hit two plants there in the cities of light position gurlitz will shut down completely and a third hangs in the balance. the two plants to be shuttered are in the state of saxony which depends on them for jobs and tax income. it's like this we're now in for a fight because we can't just accept this decision the supervisory board has a responsibility to take a critical look at the state government unions and works councils reached out their hands seaman's needs to accept this and find solutions that benefit the affected regions and employees shift. zeman says it will try to avoid forced redundancies

and will move workers to other if they can seize within the company but that's little comfort for the communities they will leave behind. well daniel winter from business is at a zeman factory. employees have been protesting once again today and daniel tell us more about what the protesters have been saying. well the union representing siemens workers says they will fight for every job post that's going to be caught in the majority of those almost seven thousand jobs here in berlin workers say that they were promised in a ten year agreement that job cuts would not be made and that c.e.o. joe case is trampling on that deal they also are asking how a company with over six billion euros in profit over the past year can ruin livelihoods now it seems as though is europe's biggest conglomerate with over

three hundred seventy two thousand workers around the world so for them it really is just a drop in the ocean or it was some kind of contradictory narratives here because we have known for a long time about the switch to renewable so i mean do we have any idea about why this restructuring is happening now well of course the human says that they need to abide by their legal o. agreements to help out their shareholders and that's despite of course that their profit has gone up you know. regardless of what's happened in their energy. division at the moment now it seems expects around one hundred turbines will be ordered around the world next year that's with a global capacity to make four hundred so they say that they have to start making cuts still the union workers won't give up and they planned another protest for next week. daniel winter for us outsiders even it's actually
