embattled president robert mugabe has defied expectations by not immediately resigning his office and a widely anticipated speech to the nation mugabe stressed that he was still in power and would preside over a congress of his rulings on o.p.'s party next month that's all the party removed him as its leader earlier today on a pay off also said it would launch in pietschmann proceedings if mugabe did not step down let's listen to some of what mugabe had to say. as the president. and. chief do acknowledge the issues. and do believe that these were raised in this spirit of on this. and. this. nation and for the welfare of people

from or from herat i were joined by a journalist to write in the love of. president mugabe did not resign the presidency despite being expected to are we in crisis mode in zimbabwe how are things looking now. well i think everyone is stunned by the fact that the live television interests not actually. touch on as expected his resignation they still are central to people trying to. beat i don't even like president. which very short of agree a widespread patients that he would be the nation farewell and i want to play a quick excerpt from his speech in which he talks about what he calls the way forward let's take a lesson that we for what. it would be based. by

. that dry rough shored up. procedure there has to be. to the guiding principles of our party as enshrined constitution. must apply sadly and. situation and before remember. so is he implying that the approaching that of p.f. congress will decide his fate. when i think from that clip that you you played it significantly seem right president carter is blocking the rise off a rival faction which we know wasn't done p. of which i was led by the form of vice president emma someone i quote when he says that you know we kind of the swapping offline cheek with another and it seems you

know to an extent you try to. appeal to a sense of justice in a field to a sense of order and and following the party principles and rules where as in reality he's own faction or the person that was supporting is wife way expelling former party members arbitrarily so they even sense that now that he's cornered you know he's appealing to a sense of justice at. least simply tried to play by the little book and one would look at it and say it's a case which is a bit too far too late and we hear now that new protests have been announced so far this and the whole situation things have remained peaceful this is something that mugabe himself even noted isn't likely to stay that way now. i know about the welfare the chairman has prayed that people must come out on the streets on

a wednesday obviously i think they telling factor would be the what the proceedings of the impeachment going to be like going on tuesday and then after people we will have a sense in the direction of all things are supposed to unfold the moment i don't get it and if that filing is what people are turning to because there's still a couple of question of course is that are you in the pipeline. mugabe is one of if not the longest serving strongman in africa are other strongman around the continent watching this situation what kind of message does this whole situation send. yeah i mean i think he's different the people that are watching from different african countries faced with the same predicament or for having a strong when they're taking this. and the resistance which the children who govern like instrument i think it would be too much destructive that the end is what you are going to roll that charge you get it done you're charging to prevent to do it

you name it you know and this is what we're seeing that there will be everything is being done five that will be used or maybe even i came to maintain peace the very few girls feel you know like old strong men to go hold strong women so i think definite he says i'm up with a situation that we will and you from that people are looking to do just the and take note from those who enough to go. in the zimbabwean capital harare i thank you so much for your insights now to some other stories making news around the world at least fifteen people have been killed in a stampede in the southern moroccan town of cd. reported the food aid was being distributed in a market media reports say all the victims were women food aid campaigns are common in remote poor areas of morocco. the argentinean military believes the crew of a missing submarine may have attempted to transmit a distress call it detected several failed transmissions that may have come from

even a preliminary agreement our correspondent is standing by in the cold and rain outside the building where the talks have been taking place and he joins us now for the latest great to see you this self-imposed deadline has passed are we still in stay sis or are there any signs of a deal now being reached. good question difficult to answer stace is i think would be going a little bit too far back so i think the talks have been going around in circles for a while maybe even four days or weeks on end and in the end the differences between the. conservatives on american side especially that wing of a party which comes from bavaria and on the other hand the rather left wing green party that is the difference that has to be bridged and there's that difference has not yet been bridged those two parties still seem to be pretty much at loggerheads there still seem to be presenting each other's positions to each other without

really moving any closer to each other during these talks a both the general secretaries of those parties were speaking publicly earlier today and in both cases there was no sign of movement at the moment and these discussions have been going on for four weeks now why is this taking so long what are the major sticking points here. well it's taking so long because there is such a wide gap to be bridged there's an unprecedented in german national politics that it's this kind of spectrum of political parties from quite conservative to quite a left wing it's trying to form a government. really there are two issues that. at which on which they cannot agree at the moment one is the refugee crisis the refugee issue the question of how many refugees should be in germany how many should be able to come to germany in the future the conservatives have said they want

a cap on the number of people that are coming into germany and this is something that they are very insistent on on the other hand the greens have said that the german constitution does not allow such a cap to be set and therefore this question should you know the number of refugees cannot be set it has to develop according to the political developments around europe and the other question is the climate change question of the control of climate change this is something that's obviously a key issue to the green party and the other conservative parties are not really budging on that issue either so those are the two issues on which things have stuck for weeks now the loci question kind of underscoring this whole thing is what happens to machall if there's no deal. absolutely that's the question this is a crucial situation for merkel she's trying to continue chancellorship and if these for talks fail there's a chance that she will not be able to continue as chancellor formally there are two

options that if these talks fail one is not go forms a minority government in other words she finds a new majority every time she has some question to decide in parliament. this i think is not very likely because it's just two in secure a way of governing the other possibility obviously is that there will be fresh elections it should take place it would be in the new year. thank you hans branch standing by for us outside the coalition talks we will get back to you as soon as there is a decision. in sunday's late bullishly a game a second to last bremen stunned one of her with a four spanking to lift themselves out of a direct relegation spots max could netted a hat trick to power bremen to the win that was after finn and bottles open the scoring in the thirty ninth minute brahmins four goals were as many as they'd
