including financial and health policy. our political correspondent kate brady is at the social democrat headquarters in berlin where the negotiations took place kate the talks are going into overtime what does that tell us. well clearly despite all of the progress that we saw last week in areas such as climate and education and also with that refugee policy there are still many obstacles to overcome here but at the same time of course it shows that none of the three parties involved in these talks are ready to give up just yet so last clinged while the general secretary of the s.p.d. came out earlier and said that negotiations had ended for tonight and they'll resume tomorrow so let's take a listen to what else he had to say. it's got a good mind just now in top level talks we've decided but there are policy issues we still need to talk about where the parties are far apart so that we need detailed concentrated negotiations so we've jointly decided that we won't be

talking to the nineteen instead we're back here at ten tomorrow to concentrate solidly on continue talks and press on with our deliberations. are as they've given themselves the night off they're meeting back up tomorrow what topics are still causing trouble here was the main obstacles now live really in social policy more specifically with those limited work contracts in germany and also with health insurance reforms now the c.d.u. in the c.s.t. the two conservative parties in these talks have ruled out any sweeping changes to that health insurance system which is something that the s.p.d. are demanding so that really could be a deal breaker in these talks could be a deal breaker does that mean the grand coalition talks could still fall apart in the coalition would fail. without doubt even with the negotiations continue in

tomorrow there's nothing to say that we'll see a grand coalition deal on the table of course that's a scenario that chancellor angela merkel definitely doesn't want to see as an she'd only be left with the choice of lead in a minority government which is ruled out on several occasions or we might even see snap elections here in germany all right a law can still happen that's political correspondent kate already thanks very much . hundreds of thousands of people have protested in athens against a potential deal was neighboring macedonia over that country's official name greece has opposed its neighbors used the name macedonia ever since it became independent from yugoslavia in one thousand nine hundred one athens has said it suggests a territorial claim on greece's own northern province of macedonia but now the two sides have been working to find a solution the greek government has signaled a willingness to compromise on the matter a move that many in greece condemn. yeah i believe i did i did
