but he's reported to be resisting calls to quit meanwhile tens of thousands in the capital harare yesterday came out to demand that he resign. people power in the center of. mcgarvie must go very these demonstrations chant it's more like a street party but one with a political message the people of zimbabwe have had enough of that ailing neda. the modern day. finally and out to be excited for the independence day it's the first time in decades that people feel free to say what they really think of president mugabe he's known for vicious crackdowns against journalists and critics. the country soldiers have become heroes for many after the military took control of zimbabwe on wednesday the generals that this day a protest. as well as an exuberant rally called by the veterans and zimbabwe's independent school the veterans who once mugabe's supposes he was there come right

you might want to know that the. central committee which is meeting today is the organ of the party that makes decisions in between congresses so. this will is bound to put pressure on him but from what we hear he is still adamant in sticking to his guns specially he's saying. constitutionally he's too the leader so even if he's expelled from the party he's. now is to say he was elected. by the people so he's to the head of state and less they go ahead and impeach him in parliament so he is resisting that doesn't sound like that there are any closer to any kind of deal especially because we're hearing that he's going to be meeting with military leaders to figure

that all out. today as well he's going to be meeting with the army commander. pressure is on both sides we don't know what is going to come out of that meeting with the commanders whether he's going to agree to do that may be cut but for now if he is booted out from the from the zanu p.f. the party used to traditionally used to the president because of even being elected constitutionally ok and the party is also planning to reinstate emerson. who was vice president until mugabe axed him just a few days ago that move seems to have kick started this whole opposition to mugabe that we're now publicly seeing can go on now once again be seen as the successor. it is not clear cut because even if he's going to be admitted back into the party

yes you may be fired but the issues. in the party itself they still would have been too good to. congress that is coming. in december in december they would do to have it start with another congress but it we it was much clear is whether they were going to make it in the elective congress so when they go to the congress then that's when they would have to decide whether non-god now becomes the party leader ok and the people of the country obviously we've seen them put on a massive demonstration are there more planned later on briefly if you can of there are no protests by the ordinary citizens that are planned today later on but the only thing that i go to here before coming on is that. chick she's planning to god it's a square with the with no one to have

parties at the table chance i'm going to merkel's christian democrat seem the most optimistic that claiming success in economic issues. but. we still need to look at cutting back on red tape but the fact that we found the strength to concentrate on such an important issue the economy and to reach agreement is a real step in the right direction. cretan of the greens the state premier part of it and berg met with the leader of the bavarian conservatives horsed say. but they've not been able to agree on the crux issue of whether or not some refugees will be able to bring their families to germany you know. i would always be able to form a coalition with mr. but i'm dealing with other people here and early in the talks on saturday it was clear the patience of some of the negotiators is wearing thin.

at some point enough is enough we've been circling around each other for weeks pushing issues and using tactics to try and squeeze a little more out it has to end at some stage we have to make a decision sometime in that time is this weekend at the latest six pm on sunday. but even that's not clear the very conservative leader is questioning the deadline . many are questioning the deadline it seems in germany this hour i'm now joined by d.w. correspondent jefferson chace he's outside the green party offices here in berlin where the talks are about to get going this morning jefferson and it's good to see you it's the last day of these exploratory talks on forming a coalition and chancellor merkel still hasn't managed to form a government if these talks fail could this actually spend spell the end for her. well actually that would be the worst case scenario i mean if the talks break down completely then there's no possibility of forming

a new government and then you'd be looking at fresh elections and it would be difficult to see how merkel could continue but i think that scenario is pretty is pretty unlikely none of the parties are interested in holding fresh elections that would only benefit the far right populists and basically this is the way the german system works it's not like in the us where one party wins the vote and then forms and forms the new government there's always a coalition and the talks always go along go on for a long time in the last in the last coalition where we only had three parties involved it took eighty four days so we're not really that far behind schedule ok we're not behind schedule but it's a bit of a different situation this time around with the four parties who sit on a broad political spectrum at different points merkel's conservative the center right f.t.p. and the left leaning greens can we expect that such

a diverse group with differing interests can actually reach an agreement well i think it is likely that they will for the reason that i just mentioned that the alternatives are really so bad for all of these parties even though they cover the whole spectrum the mainstream spectrum from right to left i was just up the road at at the c.d.u. party headquarters that's malcolm's party and i saw one of the chief. negotiators and asked him is it still fifty fifty and he said yes it's still fifty fifty but he had a twinkle in his eye as if he thought he thought it was confident that they would at least agree to keep talking today a twinkle in one's eyes some optimism there but as we know there are some major sticking points between the negotiating parties can you talk to us a little bit more about that. well the main sticking point that we're hearing

is what to do about the refugee situation the bavarian conservative party the c.s.u. the most conservative party in the talks they want a hard cap on the number of refugees that germany admits per year at two hundred thousand the green say that's not on they're willing to accept that as a target of what they say it needs to be flexible and then and then there's the issue of whether all refugees who have some sort of right to remain in germany get to bring their relatives that's something that the greens are insisting on that something the c.s.u. says they're not on board with so that's going to be i think the big issue that they try to iron out today. jefferson chase outside the green party offices in berlin thank you to sports now where saturday's bundesliga actions are byron munich battling their fellow bavarians oxburgh after a shaky start to the season biron have looked unstoppable since you took over as

coach opponents out's berg have had a solid campaign but the last time they faced biron they were slaughtered six nil. robert levin dusky was sporting a fresh new haircut his boy and welcomed out spoke to munich and the starstruck who was involved as the host took the laid heading down from a set pace a scrap in the box ending with a tour of the town firing home. the chilean second gold this season out struggle to threaten boy and skull their best chances coming from set pieces stand equal to this effort from me here gregor rich . and soon doubled their advantage that men live in dusky celebrating his new look with an us cruel finish. by pressing for sky u.v. to spill the ball the counterattack executed to perfection.
